[13:35] <Halite> Wubuntu would have a Windows interface (probably not gnome) and would be compatible with Windows .exe
[13:35] <Joel__> Haha yeah I know this is ubuntu but I am not familiar with the other similar OS'es
[13:35] <ntzrmtthihu777> I just mean it should be an option to download the iso with it default like ubuntu
[13:36] <Joel__> I am downloading the 12.04 iso now
[13:36] <ntzrmtthihu777> !wine | Halite
[13:36] <Jonny1> MonkeyDust: I didn't say I wasnt old fashioned. My collection of CDs mean I can install old versions not available for download if I want. I own two old machines that cannot run anything beyond 8.04. Then again rewritable CDs or DVDs are still cheaper than USB sticks.
[13:36] <ioria> Joel: if you love risk, you can install cygwin and the gnome enviroment
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> Halite  there's a ubuntu fork with a windows-like look, i forget the name and it's not supported here
[13:36] <ThinkT510> Joel__: if in doubt, try it out in a vm. a vm is a brilliant testing environment (you can mess up anything you want in a vm)
[13:36] <Halite> ntzrmtthihu777, WINE is too confusing
[13:36] <Joel__> ioria: Since I got no experience at all with the OS I rather take the safe route. :)
[13:36] <ntzrmtthihu777> no, its very easy ^_^
[13:37] <ntzrmtthihu777> in fact if you have the gnome destop the wine programs have their own division in the "start menu"
[13:38] <Jonny1> Joel__: It's a matter of personal preference. I prefer Ubuntu because when I first went to linux back in 2008 it was the first one I found easy to install. I think I also tried opensuse and something else but I couldnt figure them out. Ubuntu just installed from the CD and worked
[13:38]  * riderplus is back from the dead. Gone 0 hrs 13 min 10 secs
[13:38] <bilel> Is this tutorial valid for ubuntu 10.04 lucid? (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissionsACLs), I don't have any "home" entry in "/etc/fstab" please help me
[13:38] <anew> man i'm confused, lubuntu is lxde+ubuntu... so then what is lxde by itself then? is that possible to install ?
[13:38] <ThinkT510> !away | riderplus
[13:38] <ntzrmtthihu777> that's because your home folder is not on a separate partition
[13:38] <Jonny1> Joel__: I also use Ubuntu Studio. You could try Ubuntu Satanic Edition if you like heavy metal and want a laugh
[13:38] <jrib> bilel: what do you have in /etc/fstab?
[13:38] <MonkeyDust> bilel  instead of struggling with 10.04, consider upgrading... 10.04 will be unsupported in a few weeks from now
[13:39] <cfhowlett> anew, yes.  as I said, you can install lxde
[13:39] <ntzrmtthihu777> holy sh*t, that exists Jonny1 ?
[13:39] <ThinkT510> anew: lxde is the desktop environment, if you are already on any ubuntu flavour then you can install lxde
[13:39] <Joel__> Jonny1: It sounds like a safe bet then. I'll burn it to a CD then. :)
[13:39] <hutonggator_> lubuntu is ubuntu with lxde and a suite of applications as well as a nice startup screen and custom settings to make it pretty
[13:39] <anew> can you install lxde without ubuntu ?
[13:39] <cfhowlett> anew, install it to what?
[13:39] <Joel__> If I want photoshop to run on ubuntu, will I need to use WINE or something like that?
[13:39] <ThinkT510> anew: what do you mean?
[13:39] <Jonny1> bilel: That could just mean you don't have a separate home partition and your /home is simply a subdirectory to / (the root directory)
[13:39] <bilel> jrib: http://pastebin.com/Yb8Sfh15
[13:39] <hutonggator_> yes
[13:39] <Jonny1> ntzrmtthihu777: Google it. It's a laugh
[13:39] <hutonggator_> you can anew, download the mini iso
[13:39] <ntzrmtthihu777> likely, Joel__. or learn to GIMP
[13:39] <cfhowlett> Joel__, wine maybe.  OR you could use gimp
[13:40] <jrib> bilel: what's the output of « mount »?
[13:40] <anew> dunno ... so if i install lxde, and i have ubuntu - isnt that essentially lubuntu ?
[13:40] <hutonggator_> and apt-get install lxde
[13:40] <BluesKaj> anew, lxde is the desktop , ubuntu is the OS ..do some research
[13:40] <ThinkT510> anew: yes
[13:40] <Joel__> I refuse to use GIMP. Only bad experience from that satanic software.
[13:40] <ntzrmtthihu777> I GIMP and imagemagick the hell outta stuff
[13:40] <bilel> jrib: "/dev/vzfs on / type reiserfs (rw,usrquota,grpquota)"
[13:40] <cfhowlett> anew, no. lxde is ONLY the desktop environment.  lubuntu-desktop is the metapackage of all the lubuntu applications
[13:40] <hutonggator_> if you install lxde it's not lubuntu as lubuntu has some differences in configuration from the stock lxde
[13:40] <anew> mmmm i see
[13:40] <anew> ok i think i understand now, thanks
[13:41] <jrib> bilel: you're using openvz?
[13:41] <anew> so the 'most' lightweight thing to have would be lxde plus ubuntu
[13:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> ubuntu + lxde + other apps = lubuntu
[13:41] <anew> NOT lubuntu
[13:41] <hutonggator_> no
[13:41] <ThinkT510> !lubuntu | anew
[13:41] <Jonny1> Joel__: Probably. However, there are some programs that wont install under WINE. For them you might need windows running in a virtual box. I use GIMP that comes free with Ubuntu. Once you get used to it and read the wiki you will find it pretty powerful. It might not have all the bells and whistles of photoshop but I like it
[13:41] <hutonggator_> if you're going for lightweight just start with lubuntu
[13:41] <ntzrmtthihu777> Yeah, I have my vbox for RPG Maker XP
[13:42] <hutonggator_> it's easier
[13:42] <ioria> anew: i'm with lubuntu on a pentium 3 with 500 mb ram
[13:42] <cfhowlett> Photoshop 2003 is free online from adobe fwiw
[13:42] <rj_> Hello ; any one tell me about over heating and loss battery power in ubuntu 12.10
[13:42] <Jonny1> ioria: Wow!
[13:42] <ntzrmtthihu777> what kinda laptop, rj_ ?
[13:42] <hutonggator_> as it seems that you don't know where to start with lxde, another option would be to install lxde and just the lubuntu-settings package
[13:42] <Halite> !wubuntu
[13:42] <Halite> !distro
[13:42] <bilel> jrib: not me, I have a virtual host, it's like shared hosting but withouth sharing the system resources with others, each people has its own limitation, i's isolated apparently
[13:42] <Halite> !linux
[13:42] <anew> hutonggator i think i'll just download lubuntu
[13:42] <ThinkT510> !msgthebot | Halite
[13:42] <rj_> acer E1-571G
[13:43] <anew> seems eaiser, but still a tad confused on the difference, seems lubuntu has more apps
[13:43] <hutonggator_> yeah :-) i think that's the best idea
[13:43] <Justakill> I have a corsair k90 keyboard and I can't get it to work properly in ubuntu. its a 16 bit usb keyboard
[13:43] <jrib> bilel: ask your provider how you can enable ACLs then.  They may not even allow you to
[13:43] <rj_> with dual graphics card
[13:43] <Joel__> Jonny1: Ah I see. I've grown up with PS and uses it daily so not having that would be kinda sad.
[13:43] <Justakill> anyone here know how I could get it to work
[13:43] <Justakill> ?
[13:43] <ThinkT510> anew: no, lubuntu has a different set of default apps, thats all
[13:43] <ntzrmtthihu777> rj, what kinda laptop?
[13:44] <rj_> acer
[13:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> if its an hp its got nothing to do with ubuntu, hp is notoreous for overheating.
[13:44] <Coded1> is there something similar to sidewall (clock/widget overlays, live earth, etc) ?
[13:44] <Coded1> for wallpaper
[13:44] <Jonny1> Joel__: I'm not saying it wont work under WINE. You wont know till you try it. I have some windows apps I still need to run. I run some of them under wine and some under windows xp on virtual box
[13:44] <ioria> anew: but you can install what you want
[13:44] <ntzrmtthihu777> conky is nice, Coded1
[13:44] <cfhowlett> Coded1, look in the software center ....
[13:44] <ioria> anew: i installed gnome too
[13:44] <hutonggator_> basically the lubuntu makers decided on a suite of applicaitons that they thought met the goals for the lubuntu project
[13:44]  * ntzrmtthihu777 byes
[13:44] <MonkeyDust> Halite  i guess you want zorin, support in #zorinos
[13:44] <hutonggator_> and made those default in a standard lubuntu installation
[13:44] <Joel__> Jonny1: Ah then I get to see if it works. Does WINE have an impact on the perfomance?
[13:45]  * riderplus is away: (gone away) [BX-MsgLog On]
[13:45] <cfhowlett> !wine|Joel__
[13:45] <Jonny1> Joel__: I would also recommend you install gnome classic as your desktop environment
[13:45] <Jonny1> !gnome
[13:45]  * riderplus is back from the dead. Gone 0 hrs 0 min 14 secs
[13:45] <jrib> riderplus: please disable the public away notifications

[13:46] <bilel> jrib: I don't see why I'd wont be allowed, I have no limitation I can install all the packages I want and so
[13:46] <iwd> hello
[13:46] <Jonny1> Joel__: You will also probably want medibuntu
[13:46] <jrib> bilel: well ask your provider :)
[13:47] <Joel__> Jonny1: Some sort of multimedia thing?
[13:47] <bilel> jrib: ok..
[13:47] <a2r> Hi, I have a weird problem. I was on my Ubuntu 12.04 installation and wanted to try the new KDE, so I installed it from kubuntu-ppa/backports and then my audio input was weirdly broken, so i removed it again, after a reboot the computer schows me only this http://i.imgur.com/bRgFmaY.jpg (last sentence is mountall: connection to plymouth closed. Does anybode have some tipps?
[13:47] <Jonny1> !medibuntu
[13:47] <ThinkT510> Joel__: most people won't need medibuntu
[13:47] <Jonny1> Joel__: It gives you things like DVD and MP3 support
[13:48] <rj_> my acer aspire E1 laptop lose power
[13:48] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:48] <ThinkT510> Jonny1: mp3 support is available in the default repos already
[13:48] <Joel__> Why wont it support dvd and such in the first place?
[13:48] <ThinkT510> Jonny1: has been for years
[13:48] <cfhowlett> Joel__, because those are propietary codecs
[13:49] <Jonny1> Joel__: Also see restricted extras. Because of a licensing issue. The DVD encrypted format can't be released under the GNU Public Licence I think
[13:49] <ThinkT510> Joel__: lisence issues
[13:49] <Jonny1> ThinkT510: Shows how out of date, I am
[13:49] <Joel__> Ah. Thats odd
[13:50] <SterkaSor> hi will the feutures and things for unity that will land in 13.04 be backported to ubuntu 12.04.*?
[13:51] <Jonny1> Joel__: It's a slight pain of open source but there is a way round it. Just installing proprietary codecs sorts it. I think they can't be included in Ubuntu because in some countries they might not be legal or something like that. I forget exactly why but it probably mentions something in the webpages other people posted
[13:51] <theadmin> SterkaSor: Usually not, unless someone else does it.
[13:51] <DJones> SterkaSor: Generally no, some things may be, but normally, the versions in 12.04 will stay the same
[13:51] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu+1|SterkaSor,
[13:51] <SterkaSor> theadmin: what is then benifit of running LTS?
[13:51] <Joel__> Jonny1: I never thought there would be such a problem, I've used windows 7 all the time and took it all for granted eh? :P
[13:52] <ThinkT510> SterkaSor: longer support
[13:52] <cfhowlett> SterkaSor, long term support ... 5 years for 12.04
[13:52] <Jonny1> Joel__: Are you OK for a few minutes? I have to reboot into win7 now as my work's remote desktop connection doesnt work under ubuntu since they couldnt be arsed to develop it for linux. I will be back in a few minutes
[13:52] <DJones> SterkaSor: Stability, people planning to use it know that the software versions won't change
[13:52] <SterkaSor> ThinkT510 and cfhowlett yeah I know longer support. But how does it help when package gets outdated?
[13:52] <Joel__> Jonny1: Aight, godspeed! :)
[13:52] <hutonggator_> it's like buying a sedan vs. an experimental race car you know the sedan will work for a while
[13:53] <hutonggator_> the race car could break down and you'd need to install new components or tinker more
[13:53] <jrib> SterkaSor: what you are thinking of as "outdated", others think of as "stable".  Newer software isn't necessarily better software
[13:53] <SterkaSor> DJones: outdated package is not the same has program will work during al does years correctly.
[13:53] <Jonny1> Joel__: You will get used to the limitations. Generally less than the limitations windows puts on you but ultimately you will decide what you prefer and make your own choice what you use. You can always go back to win when you need to
[13:53] <cfhowlett> SterkaSor, the overall LTS releases are more "polished" and less bleeding edge than the interim releases.  future updates can be had via backports or manually installing them.
[13:54] <cfhowlett> SterkaSor, for example, I installed libreoffice 4.0 last night.  not in the repos, yet.  3 command lines, 15 minutes, done.
[13:56] <mike304> morning guys
[13:57] <Hyperbyte> Installing Ubuntu on my laptop says, near the end of the install, "the installer has encountered an unrecoverable error"... any way it's going to tell me what exactly the error is, so I can fix it? :)
[13:57] <cfhowlett> mike304, greetings
[13:57] <mike304> anyone experiencing random freeze and then restart right after that?
[13:57] <cfhowlett> Hyperbyte, is it still running?
[13:57] <cfhowlett> !anyone|mike304,
[13:57] <Hyperbyte> cfhowlett, sure, it dropped me to a desktop session
[13:58] <nibbler__> Hyperbyte: try accessing the text-consoles (ctrl)-alt-f1-f4
[13:58] <purplerain> mike304: random freeze after GRUB?
[13:58] <mike304> not sure
[13:58] <mike304> its just random freezeing, mouse stops working
[13:58] <mike304> and then it restarts
[13:58] <Hyperbyte> nibbler__, no info there, just shells
[13:58] <cfhowlett> Hyperbyte, good deal.   access console, check the logs.  sadly IDK which log you'll want, but it should be there somewhere
[13:59] <cfhowlett> !details|mike304, not enough info to help.  details matter.
[13:59] <nibbler__> Hyperbyte: check higher consoles
[13:59] <Jonny1> Joel__: The things I prefer about Ubuntu: I can install ubuntu in under an hour and it comes with a bunch of apps built in. My current record with win xp and all the updates is a day and a half and about twenty reboots (or at least it feels like it). Installing software is usually very quick and can be done with one command from the command line or is as simple as clicking a box and pressing submit in the Software Centre. Occasionally if th
[14:00] <Jonny1> Joel__: Then you add better security and almost complete immunity to viruses. I could go on ad nauseam!
[14:00] <Joel__> Jonny1: I saw my friend play around with it in school. All he seems to do is to play around in terminal and update his OS.
[14:00] <Hyperbyte> cfhowlett, nice!  Found it... in /var/log/installer/dm... it says "Illegal instruction" :-)  Hopefully there's more somewhere.
[14:00] <Jonny1> Joel__: Maybe he's a geek!
[14:00]  * cfhowlett ... MAYBE he's a geek???
[14:01] <Joel__> Hes an ubuntu fanboy alright, if he was on I would let him guidem through the process but hes probably off somewhere installing ubuntu on a machine from '97
[14:01] <Jonny1> My friend doesnt know anything technical about computers and she is quite happy using ubuntu. In fact she prefer's it to windows now and that happened on the first day
[14:01] <Joel__> I've got the iso downloaded, would it just be that easy to burn it with nero or something, then boot the cd?
[14:01] <theadmin> Joel__: Yeah, just burn the image like you normally would.
[14:01] <cfhowlett> Joel__, nero is good
[14:02] <Jonny1> Joel__: You have to burn it as an image not as a file but yes
[14:02] <theadmin> Joel__: You can also use a USB stick.
[14:02] <ioria> Joel_: pay attention... not copy but burn the compressed image
[14:02] <Jonny1> Joel__: You can get under the hood as much or as little as you like.
[14:03] <Joel__> theadmin: How would I proceed to do on an USB? Just put the file on there and then boot from USB? THat easy?
[14:03] <MonkeyDust> Joel__  use unetbootin
[14:03] <theadmin> Joel__: No, not that easy
[14:03] <Joel__> Jonny1: Nero seem to know how to burn Iso files haha
[14:03] <cfhowlett> Joel__, unetbootin
[14:03] <Jonny1> Joel__: https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ie=UTF-8ion=1&#hl=en&sugexp=les%3B&gs_rn=3&gs_ri=psy-ab&tok=4y_HAmpQI9iWbKQhBMlKGQ&cp=23&gs_id=8&xhr=t&q=install+ubuntu+from+usb&es_nrs=true&pf=p&newwindow=1&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&oq=install+ubuntu+from+usb&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.42553238,d.d2k&fp=c73b2e14325bafc9&biw=1280&bih=938
[14:03] <theadmin> Joel__: Use the imagewriter tool provided by the Ubuntu team, or unetbootin
[14:04] <MonkeyDust> Joel__  http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[14:04] <theadmin> Joel__: or dd, if you're on a UNIX system.
[14:04] <Jonny1> Joel__: Sorry that was my google search for install ubuntu from usb. What I meant to post was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[14:04] <VlanX> it is not possible to have nautilus to sort the folder based theyr size, right?
[14:05] <Jonny1> VlanX: I don't see why not. View the file list as a detail view and then click on the date column
[14:05] <theadmin> VlanX: Folders don't have size
[14:05] <jrib> VlanX: right click → arrange items → by size
[14:05] <Joel__> Okay I'll download the software for boot from usb now. :p
[14:06] <theadmin> jrib, Jonny1: Folders don't have "size" as such. I'm not sure if that's the case for Nautilus, but Thunar only displays the overall size of all items in a folder if I go into its' properties
[14:06] <Jonny1> Joel__: Good luck. If  you can stay in here on another device, people will be able to hold your hand if you encounter problems
[14:06] <theadmin> Quite likely that Nautilus acts in a similar fashion
[14:07] <Joel__> Jonny1: For this occasion I wish I brought home my schoollaptop
[14:07] <Jonny1> Joel__: I use an irc client on my phone when I have problems with my computer and I cant get access to another computer
[14:07] <mvt007geek> what is DVEVM boards? and is a usb nand flash?
[14:08] <Jonny1> Joel__: But the first time I installed Ubuntu I didnt even know about IRC or the forums and it installed with no problems. This was back in 2008 on ubuntu 8.04
[14:08] <jrib> theadmin: I think nautilus just computes the sum of the sizes of files in the directory
[14:08] <livingdaylight> can i install ubuntu on my HTC Desire HD?
[14:08] <Joel__> Jonny1: I should be alright, I am just installing it on another partion so nothing should go wrong haha
[14:08] <thaurwylth> Is this information dated or current? Ubuntu 12.04 here. 'Like other USB  devices, Terratec audio devices do not have hardware mixers. You need to create a custom .asoundrc file, using the softvol  plugin, to provide software level mixing.

[14:09] <Jonny1> For my work remote connection
[14:09] <theadmin> jrib: Thunar seems to get the data from the output of "ls -l" or somesuch, because all folders are displayed with a 4K size

[14:09] <hilarie> Okay, I need help installing a package that works for 12.10, but is broken for 12.04, and I would rather not upgrade 10 machines to 12.10 for one package, is this at all possible?

[14:10] <neowb> mvt007geek  was the question towards me?
[14:11] <mvt007geek> neowb: why? :)
[14:11] <hilarie> This is the error I am getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/1663737/ and this is the bug report I believe is affecting me https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mpich2/+bug/1038051
[14:12] <mvt007geek> MonkeyDust: so it is something like pandaboard?
[14:12] <neowb> wasnt sure nvm  I can now see its not :)
[14:12] <mvt007geek> MonkeyDust: an embeded?
[14:12] <jrib> hilarie: seems like the fix should be backported since the package is unusable without it.... But you can grab the source package from 12.10 and attempt to rebuild it on 12.04.  That's probably the most straightforward method.  Also see ubottu about backports, there may be some hints there
[14:12] <jrib> !backport | hilarie
[14:12] <MonkeyDust> mvt007geek  i had never heard about it before you asked, maybe that link is useful to you
[14:12] <hilarie> Oh god, building from source is scary though

[14:13] <Jonny1> hilarie: For me it's not scary, I am jsut lazy!
[14:13] <micza> hej
[14:14] <jrib> hilarie: you're just build a package from the source package.  It's not the same as what you are thinking of when you say "building from source" probably

[14:14] <hilarie> Every time I have broken away from apt-get something or the other, I have blown up my server, for instance, I once found something that had me enable the debian Sid repo for a dependancy....
[14:15] <jrib> hilarie: here's the sru process.  You might want to request that it be done if this package is unusable without the fix in 12.04:
[14:15] <yeats> hilarie: yeah - that's when you weigh the benefits of installing the package vs. the cost of the pain installing it and risking your system
[14:15] <jrib> !sru | hilarie
[14:15] <jrib> hilarie: you aren't breaking away from apt-get
[14:16] <Jonny1> hilarie: You could test it on a virtual box guest OS first to mitigate the risk
[14:16] <Jonny1> or on another machjine
[14:16] <hilarie> These are all already in virtualbox, I suppose I could make snapshots...

[14:17] <Burritoh> :P
[14:17] <yeats> hilarie: wow - you might consider KVM for that
[14:17] <yeats> hilarie: oh -nevermind - I though you meant 28 machines - sorry ;-)
[14:17] <LaserShark> aptitude! no wait, apt-get.
[14:17] <hilarie> 10 Machines :)
[14:18] <yeats> hilarie: well it would be a project for another day, but you might *still* want to look into KVM
[14:19] <Ruchee> Hello
[14:19] <hilarie> Yeats My next project is actually just that, want to set up a home cloud and see if you can make 1 cloud virtual machine and have it span accross many computers
[14:19] <yeats> hilarie: cool
[14:20] <VlanX> jrib: no, i mean how to recursively view the size of every folder...
[14:20] <Jonny1> hilarie: Sounds a bit like Citrix
[14:20] <Ruchee> ?
[14:20] <jrib> VlanX: use baobab for that
[14:20] <hilarie> Okay, I got distracted, could anyone explain to me what I should do to get that 12.10 package on 12.04?
[14:21] <VlanX> jrib: so there's nothing that can work inside nautilus?
[14:21] <yeats> !info mpich2
[14:21] <jrib> VlanX: not recursively, that I know of, no
[14:21] <yeats> !info mpich2 precise
[14:22] <VlanX> jrib: ok, thank you for your help
[14:22] <hilarie> Yeats MPICH2 is broken on 12.04
[14:22] <yeats> hilarie: yeah - I was just seeing what the versions were
[14:22] <hilarie> Sorry :)
[14:23] <Ruchee> join #rails-cn
[14:24] <Skyrdr> Odd..
[14:24] <yeats> hilarie: I would consider just downloading the deb for your architecture here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/mpich2 - then doing 'sudo dpkg -i <packagename>'
[14:25] <Skyrdr> I've installed steam, installed tf2..
[14:25] <Skyrdr> Where are the local files..
[14:25] <hilarie> Yeats I will give that a shot, thank you
[14:27] <yeats> Skyrdr: try ~/.steam
[14:27] <hilarie> Yeats is this what they call dependancy hell? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1663810/
[14:27] <mikili> hi
[14:27] <yeats> hilarie: yep
[14:28] <hilarie> It was a great day when I learned about *.deb :D
[14:28] <mikili> hi all
[14:29] <LaserShark> :D
[14:29] <yeats> yeah - try installing http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/libmpich2-3 and then try 'sudo apt-get install libhwloc5'
[14:29] <Skyrdr> yeats:
[14:29] <Skyrdr> It says it exists in home/skyrider/.steam
[14:29] <yeats> hilarie: ^^
[14:29] <Skyrdr> why is it hidden
[14:30] <Skyrdr> I can't find it when I browse my own home folder.
[14:30] <yeats> Skyrdr: many apps have hidden folders in your home folder
[14:30] <hilarie> Yeats will give that a shot
[14:30] <yeats> Skyrdr: View -> Hidden Folders (or whatever it is)
[14:31] <mikili> hi
[14:31] <Skyrdr> Why ty
[14:31] <mike304> hey how come the animations are smooth enough? its laggy
[14:31] <hilarie> Thank you Yeats, giving that a shot
[14:32] <yeats> hilarie: happy to help
[14:36] <deoj> hey folks
[14:36] <deoj> can someone help me with some audio issues?
[14:36] <deoj> audio/recording/screen casting issues rather?
[14:37] <Soelen> sudo apt-get install /leave
[14:38] <deoj> hello?
[14:38] <hilarie> Hello Deoj, please have patience
[14:38] <hilarie> What version are you running, what hardware are you running, what have you tried, what error are you getting, is probably some of the questions someone who knows how to help is going to ask
[14:39] <deoj> 12.04
[14:39] <deoj> hold on, ill get the specs
[14:40] <deoj> Intel® Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz × 2
[14:40] <deoj> Kernel Linux 3.2.0-37-generic-pae
[14:40] <deoj> Memory2.5 GiB
[14:41] <deoj> I basically tried to mute my hd webcam to mute so I can record from my microphone
[14:41] <deoj> but when I mute the webcam, it mutes all other recording devices
[14:42] <bourbon> hi
[14:42] <hilarie> Hello Dr_willis
[14:42] <hilarie> Deoj, say all of that again, in 1 line for that guy, he is smart
[14:42] <mikili> hi
[14:43] <mvt007geek> hey guys i mounted  usb drive but it ask me the type of filesystem. i added -t ext4 but it didn't work
[14:43] <mvt007geek> what should i do?
[14:43] <deoj> okay, should I go to an alsa room?
[14:43] <mvt007geek> ?
[14:43] <zAo^2> can someone help me installing server?
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> deoj  in a terminal, type alsamixer    is that useful?
[14:43] <hilarie> Deoj It just takes patience sometimes!
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> zAo^2  #ubuntu-server
[14:43] <zAo^2> I got "Your installation CDROM couldnt be mounted"
[14:44]  * riderplus Gooo away
[14:44] <zAo^2> k MonkeyDust
[14:44] <neowb> Hi, would anyone know how I can use my ext4 formatted USB flash drive from multiple ubuntu Computers without Ubuntu setting file permissions to the newly created files?
[14:45] <ntzrmtthihu777> Just popping back on to say I got it partly done, my card is now recognized
[14:46] <hilarie> Yeats each package wanted a couple more packages, thinking I will deal with shorter life cycle and upgrade to 12.10 lol
[14:47] <cholby69> I'm actually pretty impressed with Windows 8
[14:47] <deoj> that is weird, now it works...forgive my ignorance, im still learning the ins and outs of ubuntu
[14:48] <deoj> was that command a reset type of command? it looked like just a general command to start a program
[14:48] <Hamtechperson> I'm impressed with windows 8 too... On tablets.
[14:48] <Hamtechperson> Or touch interfaces.
[14:49] <hilarie> Windows8 is great if you want to break half of the games, if you can't game on the newest version of windows, maybe devolopers will finally start doing more for linux :D
[14:49] <DJones> ##windows for windows discussion pleae
[14:49] <purplerain> i thought i was looking at ##windows
[14:50] <cholby69> hilarie i game on xbox 360
[14:50] <cholby69> none of my friends are PC gamers.  :-(  so i have no reason to either
[14:50] <cholby69> oh question.  i just got a new laptop and want to benchmark it.  what's a good benchmark program and also what's a good game to test out graphics?
[14:51] <cholby69> is Crysis 3 out yet?
[14:51] <Joel__> You wanna kill your laptop already?
[14:52] <deoj> Just curious, why is it that I have to raise the input recording level on 100%?
[14:52] <deoj> anyways, its working now, thanks hil
[14:52] <hilarie> Because 100% would be catching everything, and anything less is getting less of it?
[14:52] <Naphatul> why do i have "Online accounts" in my settings when i didn't install anything like that, what does it come with? also, why are there 2 of those?
[14:53] <Naphatul> see here: http://i.imgur.com/ASMplwM.png
[14:53] <hilarie> Its if you had to raise it above 100 that I would be freaked out
[14:53] <deoj> i guess im use to puting recording devices at 75 to 80%...anything higher was too sensitive
[14:53] <sdrhrgjkng> I've read conflicting advice, should I enable or disable intel speedstep in the bios?
[14:53] <deoj> when i used xp and 7
[14:54] <Taylr0x> Is there anywhere you can set filetype's to always open via a certain program?
[14:55] <mike304> anyone lagg on ubuntu? not hardcore lagg but just regular animation laggs?
[14:55] <jorge> Hi everyone.  I completed a fresh Ubuntu 12.10 earlier this week to replace my existing 12.04 install.  Compared to Precise, Quantal seems to run A LOT hotter, with the fans running at max rpm nearly all the time, whereas 12.04 was cool and very quiet.  What's odd is that neither System monitor nor Top indicate any cpu-intensive processes, with the CPU idling at 2-5%.  For context, I 've had Linux mint 13 KDE on the same laptop, which ran fine, however, Mint
[14:55] <jorge> 14 KDE exhibited the exact same symptoms as 12.10.  Any ideas on why this is happening?
[14:56] <MonkeyDust> Taylr0x  right click on a file, properties, open with, set as default
[14:56] <Naphatul> Taylr0x, right click>open with>other application, it should be there somewhere
[14:56] <Joel__> Trying to shrink my partition and then the program stops responding hurrr
[14:56] <Taylr0x> Excellent. Thank you MonkeyDust & Naphatul.
[14:57] <escott> neowb, ext4 supports the normal permission set.
[15:00] <escott> jorge, what kind of graphics card
[15:00] <jorge> @ escott:  Intel integrated graphics

[15:04] <NetFlam> Hi!
[15:05] <jin> hi
[15:06] <jin> hi?
[15:06] <jin> someone online here?
[15:06] <jin> ?

[15:08] <kimir> How can I install compiz from 13.04? I want to have different wallpapers in each workspaces, but it seems it is broken in 12.10...
[15:08] <NetFlam> #ubuntu+1
[15:09] <kimir> I'm not using raring...
[15:09] <NetFlam> aaa
[15:09] <bekks> kimir: You should not mix packages from different releases, it will most likely break your system.
[15:09] <yeats> kimir: no one here is going to recommend that you do that
[15:10] <kimir> Hmmm... Is 13.04 stable enough to be used?
[15:10] <kimir> I really want different wallpapers :)
[15:11] <BluesKaj> you don't need 13.04 justy for different wallp[apers you use use your pictures file as a source for them if choose to, kimir
[15:11] <theadmin> BluesKaj: I think that was a joke
[15:11] <BluesKaj> theadmin, ..how can you tell :)
[15:12] <kimir> What was a joke? O.o
[15:12] <sahil> hello i need a help in libre office
[15:12] <theadmin> kimir: No release is considered stable before it's released, so nope, it's not stable
[15:12] <theadmin> sahil: #libreoffice would be a better place to ask.
[15:13] <BluesKaj> well, i'm on 13.04 Kubuntu ...running very stable atm
[15:13] <sahil> i have downloaded libreoffice 4.0  but i dont want to install full libreoffice components like base ,calc,database etc
[15:13] <hilarie> I have kind of on odd question, I have several VPS's with ubuntu on them, and they are all tiny when they start, like around 400mb of used disk space to start, where can I get an image like that?
[15:13] <Taylr0x> How do I check if a program is running via terminal and then terminate it if it's malfunctioning?
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> Taylr0x  ps -e|grep blah
[15:14] <bekks> Taylr0x: The latter is impossible.
[15:14] <sahil> _theadmin i just need a proper dpkg or related command to install few componets like writer and impress from downloaded debs(from their website)
[15:14] <goodwin> i got a system error
[15:15] <goodwin> E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[15:15] <bekks> goodwin: And whats the complete output of the command producing that error?  But that doesnt help you determining wether a program is malfunctioning.
[15:16] <hilarie> Sahil which packages, from which website?
[15:16] <bekks> Taylr0x: There are kill and pkill.
[15:16] <Taylr0x> Many thanks hilarie. bekks I just want to end the program as I can't see it running to stop it.
[15:17] <sevenhill> nepomuk still try to index .h files even text/x-c++hdr is added default exclude-mime-type . On the other hand if i  add ".h" to exclude file type list its working fine. So text/x-c++hdr is not enough or text/x-c++hdr is not defined as
[15:17] <hilarie> Taylorox if you have a good idea of what it is you can also use wildcards and stuff, pkill *somth*ng
[15:17] <MonkeyDust> sevenhill  C development?
[15:17] <sahil> _hilarie that command installs everything.
[15:17] <goodwin> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1653123/
[15:18] <Taylr0x> hilarie, I'm trying to close down Banshee but it's still playing music in the background even when I go to 'close'.
[15:18] <hilarie> Sahil is that not what you wanted? sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
[15:18] <Taylr0x> I can't seem to stop it.
[15:18] <sevenhill> MonkeyDust, kde nepomuk project ( an indexer ) is acting wrong
[15:18] <compdoc> thats why they call it Banshee
[15:18] <compdoc> jk :)
[15:18] <dr_willis> Taylr0x:  looked in the  little speaker menu at the top right?
[15:18] <hilarie> try this in terminal sudo shutdown -r now (reboot)
[15:18] <bekks> goodwin: You should read all that warnings too, thats why at least on file is being ignored.
[15:18] <goodwin> bekks: actually the same error for system error appearing on the screen top
[15:19] <Taylr0x> dr_willis, Didn't even know that little widget existed. That's where the little bugger is hiding. Many thanks!
[15:19] <sahil> I have downloaded the entire tar bar from their official website,extracting it contains deb files  of its full suite that is calc,base writer,math ... i just need to install writer and impress
[15:19] <sevenhill> but it isn't probable because of kde . it is probably about ubuntu because the text/x-c++hdr is not defined
[15:19] <dr_willis> Taylr0x:  :) its a feature.. not a bug.  I'd been annoyed by this issue for several days. cannot install anything
[15:21] <bekks> anew: Why...?
[15:21] <bekks> goodwin: Choose another mirror.
[15:21] <anew> not sure i've tried a few things, first straight from the menu it says it cant unmount
[15:21] <hilarie> !pm Sahil
[15:21] <anew> second from the command line i run the file
[15:21] <bekks> anew: How did you install vbox?
[15:21] <anew> it seems like it works, but then none of the guest addition options are available
[15:21] <goodwin> bekks: how? edit /etc/apt/source.list?
[15:21] <anew> i restart still nothing
[15:21] <anew> how did i install vbox? what do u mean
[15:21] <dearn> Hello ppl. Didn't use any Linux for a while, but noticed Ubuntu is starting pretty slowly, checked dmesg and seems like there is 15 seconds gap in log
[15:21] <bekks> goodwin: Thats one of the many ways to do it.
[15:22] <goodwin> bekks: i did vbox many days ago. no this issue at that time
[15:22] <bekks> anew: I want to know how you installed vbox. Did you think about it, and it appeared, did you run some command, etc.?
[15:22] <anew> i mean i just downloaded it and installed it...
[15:22] <kutulal> does anyone knows a network tool which shows network transmission history?
[15:22] <bekks> goodwin: vbox is the issue I am discussing with anew :)
[15:22] <ThinkT510> bekks: i think he is running ubuntu inside vbox on windows
[15:22] <bekks> anew: Then follow the vbox manual on how to install the guest additions.
[15:23] <anew> what...
[15:23] <dearn> http://pastebin.com/qp7Xbuvq any idea what might be causing this pause?
[15:23] <anew> i just described all the steps in the manual
[15:23] <anew> it didnt install... igoogled for some people with the same errors but couldnt find anything
[15:23] <rita_> i have a problem with my philips 17" ubuntu dedect a 15"
[15:24] <bekks> anew: No. The ONLY way described in the manual is to use the shipped iso to install the guest additions. And you did NOT describe the other ways described in the manual to install the guest additions.
[15:24] <kutulal> does anyone knows a network tool which shows network transmission history?
[15:24] <bekks> anew: Using the menu entry is just one of the ways to install the guest additions.
[15:24] <mainerror__> kutulal: Like sent packages?
[15:24] <ThinkT510> kutulal: kind of difficult after the fact
[15:25] <rita_> #join/ubuntu-be
[15:25] <anew> bekks i'm not sure what manual you're looking at
[15:25] <anew> but the one i'm looking at says click devices and go to install guest additions
[15:25] <anew> which is exactly what i just said above
[15:25] <anew> as i tried
[15:25] <rita_> join /iubuntu-be
[15:25] <bekks> anew: the official vbox manual.
[15:25] <kutulal> like how much dat you downloaded/uploaded in web for a month
[15:25] <anew> http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#idp11154112
[15:25] <Joel__> If I install ubuntu from a usb, what format does it need to be? NTSF?
[15:25] <DJones> rita_: its "/join #ubuntu-be"
[15:25] <anew> if this isnt the official vbox manual then you know something the creators dont
[15:25] <bekks> anew: And that manual tells you a second, manual way to install the guest additions.
[15:26] <mainerror__> Joel__: vfat will do.
[15:26] <TakeItEZ> !info vnstat  | kutulal:  like this?
[15:26] <Joel__> mainerror__: The options I got when I format is exFAT, FAT and NTSF.
[15:26] <kutulal> thanks guys!
[15:26] <rita_> #join /ubuntu-be
[15:26] <mainerror__> Joel__: FAT
 rita_: its "/join #ubuntu-be"
[15:26] <ThinkT510> Joel__: its called ntfs not ntsf
[15:27] <rita_> how can i join a other channel
[15:27] <sahil> _hilarie i downloaded libreoffice full suite from their official website , a compressed file with 100s of debs,satisfying all dependencies.I want to install just the writer and impress from that
 rita_: its "/join #ubuntu-be"
[15:27] <ThinkT510> rita_: /join #nameofchannel
[15:27] <Joel__> ThinkT510: I was never able to remember the letters.
[15:27] <rita_> Marlinc, thnks
[15:27] <sahil> i downloaded from here http://www.libreoffice.org/download/?type=deb-x86&lang=en-US&version=4.0.0
[15:27] <hilarie> Sahil I am sorry, I have *no* idea how to do that, why don't you want the whole suite though?
[15:28] <Opiate> Hey, quick question here
[15:28] <Opiate> Is it possible to install Ubuntu without using a CD or a Flash Drive?
[15:28] <Joel__> mainerror__: For some reason my computer cnat find theUSB when its fat. I guess I have to go and burn it to a disco ro so
[15:28] <bekks> Opiate: Yes.
[15:28] <mainerror__> Joel__: That's easy. New Technology File System (NTFS)
[15:28] <DJones> !netinstall | Opiate
[15:29] <Taylr0x> sahil, Why don't you install the individual office packages via the software centre?
[15:29] <dr_willis> Opiate:  you can set up a server to do a netboot from and install that way.  or a debootstrap install.. but thats getting hard core.
[15:29] <Opiate> Would mounting the .iso on virtual clonedrive work?
[15:29] <kutulal> how to use vnstat?
[15:29] <mainerror__> Joel__: Interesting, which operating system are you on?
[15:29] <bekks> Opiate: No.
[15:29] <dr_willis> Opiate:  virtual clonedrive?
[15:29] <Taylr0x> sahil, You can install specific areas from in there. E.g. spreadsheets only, word processing only etc.
[15:29] <ThinkT510> kutulal: man vmstat
[15:29] <Joel__> mainerror__: W7, so it should work just fine. :|
[15:29] <rita_>  /jion #ubuntu-nl
[15:29] <anew> well does anyone have any help for installing guest additions
[15:29] <rita_>  /join #ubuntu-nl
[15:29] <kutulal> any instruction, please
[15:30] <MonkeyDust> rita_  zonder die spatie
[15:30] <mainerror__> Joel__: Indeed, it should work. I don't have access to a Win7 machine right now, but formatting it using fat32 should work just fine.
[15:30] <bekks> anew: Insert the iso into the virtual cd of the vm, mount it, run the installer. THATS what the manual says.
[15:30] <ThinkT510> rita_: no space infront
[15:30] <dr_willis> kutulal:  start with man vnstat  ?
[15:30] <kutulal> Ok!
[15:30] <dr_willis> !info vnstat
[15:30] <anew> that's what i did and said i did
[15:31] <kutulal> opened man vnstat
[15:31] <anew> i cant even tell if ur helping or trolling
[15:31] <rita_> who can help me with my pilips monitor
[15:31] <kutulal> can't get anything
[15:31] <bekks> anew: No it is not. You said you clicked on that menu entry.
[15:31] <bekks> anew: Which is not attaching an iso to the cd drive in the settings of the vm, etc.
[15:31] <anew> that was the first thing i tried, the second thing i tried is running the installer after mounting it
[15:31] <bekks> anew: And running the installer produced WHICH output?
[15:31] <BluesKaj> !who | anew
[15:32] <rita_> who can help me with my pilips monitor ubuntu say that it is a philips 15" but real it is a philips 17" philips 17B
[15:32] <Joel__> mainerror__: I try to add the files with another liveboot cd program. Maybe I am in better luck that way
[15:32] <anew> k sorry blueskaj
[15:32] <mainerror__> Joel__: Best tool I can recommend is Unetbootin
[15:32] <anew> bekks it produced the output that it succeeded ! which is why i dont understand why it's not installed
[15:32] <dr_willis> kutulal:  and how long have you had vnstat running?
[15:32] <Joel__> mainerror__: That one didnt work
[15:32] <mainerror__> :(
[15:32] <anew> let me do it again and pastebin bekks
[15:32] <oakwhiz> I installed fglrx-experimental-9 and now I'm stuck in text mode :-(
[15:32] <Joel__> Maybe it does work but I coudlnt find the USB on boot with it
[15:33] <kutulal> when try to run vnstat, get output: not enough data availiable yet!
[15:33] <BluesKaj> rita_, check  additional drivers , for a better graphics card driver
[15:33] <mainerror__> Is that option enabled in your BIOS Joel__?
[15:33] <mainerror__> Maybe you have to activate that manually.
[15:33] <dr_willis> kutulal:  and thats why.. it has to record some data to have somthing to report...
[15:33] <Opiate> Well I just found a really quick and easy way to install ubuntu without a CD or USB drive
[15:33] <UserLinux> hay All, I have a problem
[15:33] <dr_willis> kutulal:  check it in a few hours
[15:33] <Joel__> mainerror__: I've looked through the options. It should work.
[15:33] <mainerror__> That's odd.
[15:33] <rita_> BluesKaj, how can i do that
[15:34] <kutulal> dr_willis: Okay
[15:34] <UserLinux> when going to ubuntu booting, shift >> grub>> ubuntu recovery mode
[15:34] <BluesKaj> rita` alt+f2 , additional drivers
[15:35] <rita_> BluesKaj,  im using ubuntu 12.04
[15:36] <UserLinux> hay All, I have a problem
[15:36] <kutulal> dr_willis: got output,thanks!
[15:36] <unhuman> hey
[15:36] <UserLinux> when going to ubuntu booting, shift >> grub>> ubuntu recovery mode
[15:36] <unhuman> my ubuntu server is suddenly rejecting all ssh connections...what to do?
[15:36] <BluesKaj> rita` alt+f2 , type in the textbox , additional drivers
[15:37] <Opiate> wait...damnit, I can't install ubuntu, I need another HDD
[15:37] <UserLinux> login >> insert a password>> enter
[15:37] <rita_> BluesKaj, the i got a news screen with the possebility to type somthing
[15:37] <mainerror__> BluesKaj: That won't work.
[15:37] <UserLinux> so... "login session error"
[15:37] <ThinkT510> Opiate: or reoganise your partitions or use a vm
[15:37] <bekks> unhuman: What did you do before? :)
[15:37] <UserLinux> do you know, why this?
[15:38] <rita_> how can i see what screen driver is installed
[15:38] <UserLinux> error in login-session...
[15:38] <UserLinux> who can help me?
[15:38] <bekks> UserLinux: There are numerous reason for that error.
[15:38] <rita_> how can i see what screen driver is installed
[15:38] <anew> bekks are you still there http://pastebin.com/jTj2a7Eb
[15:38] <mainerror__> BluesKaj: As far as I know jockey isn't installed anymore by default.
[15:39] <anew> this is the output i get
[15:39] <sirspazzolot> so I have two computers on ubuntu here. internet working fine on both. tasksel installed and working (in theory) on both. one can install lamp-server, the other can't download files from the repositories.
[15:39] <ThinkT510> rita_: lsmod will give you a list of the loaded kernel modules
[15:39] <bekks> anew: Then reboot the vm now.
[15:39] <unhuman> bekks: the last thing i did was to edit some php files
[15:39] <sirspazzolot> the problem computer can also never fully update the repos with apt-get update. a few of them always fail.
[15:40] <anew> bekks lol i swear this didnt work the first 5 times i tried it... it's working now though thanks
[15:40] <anew> wow seamless mode is pretty badass
[15:40] <sevenhill> UserLinux, are you sure that you are not using keypad ? because mostly pc starts without numlock. So  maybe you are typing wrong
[15:41] <rita_> that is what i see by lsmod vor video videodev               86588  1 gspca_main
[15:41] <amgum> is there a way for me to change the color of my terminal when I ssh into another machine?
[15:41] <BluesKaj> mainerror__, I'm not talking about jockey , I',m just asking to open the run command and type in additional drivers , it should show an option to open
[15:41] <ThinkT510> rita_: pastebin lsmod output
[15:42] <UserLinux> bekks: can you give specific?
[15:42] <Araneidae> Does anyone know how to get a machine with Phoenix SecureCore Tiano BIOS to boot off a USB key?
[15:42] <BluesKaj> mainerror__, if you have a better method , then post it for rita_
[15:42] <bekks> UserLinux: You could boot a livecd and check you have sufficient disk space left.
[15:43] <UserLinux> maybe this error, after upgrade kernel to v3.7.5
[15:43] <rita_> BluesKaj, additional drivers don't work
[15:43] <Araneidae> Or a Live CD, for that matter.  How can I get my new laptop to boot off a CD?
[15:43] <bekks> UserLinux: Which Ubuntu do you have?
[15:43] <UserLinux> bekks: I sory I not using Live cd
[15:43] <UserLinux> 12.04
[15:43] <BluesKaj> they don't work or you can't find them rita_  ?
[15:43] <amgum> or is there a way to change the color of the terminal when I'm root?
[15:44] <Araneidae> I have the BIOS page open in front of me, but it won't let me change anything.
[15:44] <goodwin> bekks: i removed the file causing problem. then it works now.
[15:46] <goodwin> somehow the problem file is an HTML page-dont know why. now everything back to normal. the same system error also disappeared
[15:46] <rita_> BluesKaj, i do alt+f2 get newschreen where i type additonal drivers + enter notting happend
[15:46] <BluesKaj> new screen ?
[15:46] <UserLinux> bekks: how can fix this?
[15:47] <Malsasa> bekks: it is UserLinux error message: http://pastebin.com/gAV1qy14
[15:47] <UserLinux> Malsasa: hellp
[15:47] <rita_> BluesKaj, iot openen dash home
[15:47] <Araneidae> Does anybody know anything about working with UEFI?
[15:47] <BluesKaj> would some one pls direct rita_ to the additional drivers on gnome /unity ...I'm on kde and forgot where to look
[15:47] <Malsasa> UserLinux: ye, ye, I know. Be patient :)
[15:47] <bekks> UserLinux: Can you login to your computer somehow?
[15:48] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: is your question about secureboot?
[15:48] <Araneidae> Afraid so :(
[15:48] <Araneidae> It won't let me boot anything, and I can't see any way to disable it
[15:48] <Araneidae> My bios is Phoenix SecureCore Tiano
[15:49] <rita_> how can i get the additional drivers in gnome unity
[15:49] <Araneidae> I've tried three boot sources: a Mint image created with Unetbootin, a Ubuntu 10.04 live CD, and a Mint image created with Mint's USB creator tool.
[15:50] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: I haven't worked with itself myself but I see news about it from time to time. is this new to you? http://blog.hansenpartnership.com/linux-foundation-secure-boot-system-released/
[15:50] <BluesKaj> rita_, try alt+f2 , jockey
[15:50] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: perviously there was also http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/20303.html
[15:51] <Araneidae> Thank you for both of those
[15:51] <sirspazzolot> I think a 10.04 cd would be too old, and if I'm not mistaken mint doesn't have secureboot stuff in it. I think fedora 18 and new ubuntus might.
[15:51] <Araneidae> Is the problem so new that nothing's been integrated into existing installs?  Think we have a bit of a brick wall for people trying to install LInux on net hardware at the moment
[15:52] <Hatz> Wonderful. Rebooted with the nvidia drivers and now my desktop is gone. Just the steam shortcut. :I
[15:52] <Araneidae> Crap.  So what *can* I install?  Or do those links give me wrappers that will work around the problem?
[15:52] <Araneidae> And I thought we were being told, when this stuff was first mentioned a year ago, that we'd always have the option to turn it off
[15:53] <Araneidae> I see no such option
[15:53] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: hah yeah, I hate the direction we're moving in with respect to actual freedom. I don't know how to repair existing installs, you may be able to boot a working livecd and chroot in and do some work like that
[15:54] <sirspazzolot> I don't know the technical details involved, though. :( I should really learn them, since my next computer will likely have this crap to deal with
[15:55] <Araneidae> sirspazzolot, I'm afraid don't understand the first link you gave me: what is a .efi file?
[15:55] <sahil> which is the best ati radeon driver for elementary luna (based on ubuntu precise)
[15:56] <ThinkT510> sahil: we don't support it
[15:56] <sahil> chipset is 785 (hd4200 perhaps)
[15:56] <bekks> sahil: We dont support anything else but Ubuntu in here. Ask your Elementary Luna support.
[15:57] <Araneidae> So is Linux effectively shut out of new Windows machines for the time being?
[15:57] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: my current understanding is that they operate by magic and make your computer boot. there are probably tutorials or something online, I only had those two links bookmarked
[15:57] <margareta> How do I get the darn google icon out of my mail notifications?
[15:58] <margareta> I do not use google+ at all.
[15:58] <sahil> err okey whats the best driver for ubuntu precise,i am dual booting with luna
[15:58] <Araneidae> sirspazzolot, but somehow they need to be integrated into what is being booted ... and that bit is missing, exercise for the reader.
[15:58] <sahil> best ati radeon* driver
[15:58] <Araneidae> Why is this not a big deal at the moment
[15:58] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: I don't know. it's strange how on certain fronts linux is gaining huge ground, what with steam and all, but on others it's becoming the 'super geek technical thing' again
[15:58] <bekks> !best | sahil
[16:00] <psusi> Araneidae, EFI is a smarter replacement for the BIOS... an .efi file is a file that the firmware can go read from the drive and execute to do things like boot the OS.. there's this secure boot crap now where the efi firmware verifies the digital signature on the boot loader image and won't load it if it isn't signed by the proper ( microsoft ) key
[16:00] <sirspazzolot> Araneidae: I'm afraid I can't help with the actual process. hopefully somebody else in this channel knows, or you might have to go to the forums with it
[16:00] <sirspazzolot> oh. right on cue. :)
[16:00] <Aaron_`> I am having trouble with iptables under ubuntu linux.  This is what I have, in this order, that is causing the issues. "-A FORWARD -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -d <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5900 -j ACCEPT" "-A FORWARD -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -d <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5900 -j ACCEPT" "-A FORWARD -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -d <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -j REJECT"  Whats wrong?
[16:00] <sahil> name a  "better" driver for ati radeon in which i can play some light games,and which doesnt makes the desktop a slow poke or breaks the system
[16:00] <Araneidae> sirspazzolot, it's pretty upsetting, actually.  My g/f is on at me about making her computer too complicated ... and now I find I can't even set up a new laptop.  Microsoft wins big.  I've had to pay for a Windows image I'm never going to use, and I'm probably going end up taking this f***ing machine back because of this sodding boot issue.
[16:00] <bekks> Aaron_`: Use a pastebin please, your last post is completely unreadable :)
[16:01] <psusi> Araneidae, the firmware should have an option to disable the secure boot
[16:01] <Aaron_`> bekks:  Aoligies..  One moment.
[16:01] <Araneidae> psusi, how do I proceed if I have a bootable USB key in one hand (I want to put Mint on the laptop) and this POS laptop in the other?
[16:01] <Araneidae> psusi, yes.
[16:01] <Araneidae> But it doesn't
[16:01] <Marg> Araneidae its always a joy to see somebody rage quite.
[16:01] <Araneidae> Good, eh?
[16:02] <slax0r> Hello, I have a NetGear WNA3100 USB wireless adapter and have installed the driver using ndiswrapper, and everything is working, until I try to connect to WPA protected wireless. In /var/log/syslog I came accross wpa_supplicant authentication timed out error and have searched google....alot...but cant find a solution, any help?
[16:02] <psusi> Araneidae, you looked through all of the screens?  it should have an option to turn it off entirely, or an option to add a new, non microsoft key
[16:02] <Araneidae> Marg, I think I'm working on it.  I've been putting off this laptop purchase for months now, and I see I'm deep in shit with no way forward apart from taking the laptop back
[16:03] <Araneidae> psusi, adding a new key?  Interesting... There aren't so many BIOS pages, hang on a moment
[16:03] <psusi> and Ubuntu now has a signed grub that should work if you install the proper key into the firmware... I'm not sure exactly how to go about that though
[16:03] <Araneidae> It has a "Security" page with "Secure Boot Configuration" at the bottom, and that has a line saying: "Secure Boot: Enable"
[16:04] <Aaron_`> Thats okay there was errors in it anyway.  Here is what I have in my iptables that isn't working.  Note that thee are other items there as well before these entries, but it was passing packets fine (I just want to restrict them to poty 5900) http://pastebin.com/YJwxDMTu
[16:04] <psusi> Araneidae, there you go.. make it disabled
[16:04] <Araneidae> Alas, unlike all the other pages in the BIOS, nothing is editable on this page
[16:04] <Araneidae> Nice one
[16:04] <Marg> I am a woman that just installed Ubuntu last night. Sure things look a little different on this Dell Inspiron.
[16:04] <Araneidae> I've somewhere seen a hint that the only way to disable this is through Windows. WTF?!
[16:05] <Araneidae> THis page says "Configures Secure Boot features", but nothing on this page is editable
[16:05] <MonkeyDust> Araneidae  http://news.softpedia.com/news/Linux-Foundation-Releases-UEFI-Secure-Boot-System-328103.shtml
[16:05] <sirspazzolot> ahaha. yeah that rings a bell, something about if it's an oem install only ms and the oem have the ability to tweak certain things
[16:05] <nubcake> Hi, could anyone please help me getting that SDHC card mounted so i have write access too? I'm trying to install ubuntu 12.04LTS booting from that SDHC Card, but unetbootin won't copy the files onto it since it's mounted as ready only :(
[16:06] <psusi> call up the oem and demand they tell you how to disable it
[16:06] <psusi> or return it for a refund
[16:06] <Malsasa> Anyone can help?? :grin: http://pastebin.com/RwEXX9xy   <<--   binary shell script error
[16:06] <Araneidae> Oh FFS.  I can't buy a laptop *without* a fing OEM install.  psusi, that's exactly it.   PHP (can't remember the M)
[16:09] <psusi> mysql
[16:10] <sirspazzolot> mysql
[16:10] <Araneidae> oh yeah.  Don't people use postgres instead these days?  (Not a db programmer)
[16:10] <Burritoh> but LAPP is a boring name
[16:10] <Burritoh> :P
[16:11] <rita_> how can i see what screendriver is installed in ubuntu 12.04
[16:11] <marjinal1st> hi, when i use special PPA's, it always makes *.save files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d . How can i prevent it?
[16:11] <ThinkT510> rita_: pastebin the output of lsmod
[16:11] <Burritoh> Araneidae: oh, looks like there is actually a "LAPP"
[16:11] <Burritoh> with Postgres
[16:12] <anew> so in my vh, the resolution of the desktop looks ok, but windows are enormous
[16:12] <anew> and text also ?
[16:12] <Malsasa> Anyone can help?? :grin: http://pastebin.com/RwEXX9xy <<-- binary shell script error
[16:12] <theadmin> rita_: lsmod | grep '^video ' | awk '{print $4;}'
[16:13] <BluesKaj> marjinal1st, that's where ppas are stored
[16:13] <sirspazzolot> oh! a different error! maybe this is working!
[16:13] <sirspazzolot> this computer likes to finish apt-related processes without unlocking the apt stuff
[16:14] <rita_> theadmin,  i915
[16:14] <marjinal1st> yep, i know. i just wanna prevent *.save files occur in that folder because when i use apt on terminal, it shows some warnings about *.save files.
[16:15] <Araneidae> Good grief, I found something: https://support.ts.fujitsu.com/WDB/FAQContentstart.asp?ID=233462327&Info=SA&Sprache=en&LNG=COM&Todo=FAQContact
[16:15] <Araneidae> "To change these settings it is necessary that a Supervisor Password is set."  Oh, FFS
[16:15]  * riderplus is back from the dead. Gone 1 hrs 31 min 50 secs
[16:16] <BluesKaj> !away | riderplus
[16:16] <Araneidae> Any idea what CSM means in the context of booting?
[16:16] <anew> anyone having issues with resolution?  i have my desktop res set, but it seems window resolution is enourmous
[16:17] <Esokrates> @rita lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'
[16:17] <rita_> how can i see what screen diver is installed
[16:17] <BluesKaj> Araneidae, that's CSM/Compiz starting up
[16:17] <marjinal1st> Araneidae, Compatibility Support Module
[16:17] <theadmin> rita_: That's the driver, i915.
[16:18] <theadmin> rita_: The opensource Intel video driver.
[16:18] <Araneidae> And *now* I can change the Secure Boot Option!
[16:18] <Esokrates> rita, you can find out more about i915 with modinfo i915
[16:18] <Araneidae> Compatibility Support Module?  Sounds promising ...
[16:18] <Araneidae> And with secure boot enabled I can enable CSM!
[16:19] <MK`> I am installing a fresh 12.04 and just partitioned an empty HD. When I clicked to install, it now says this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1664318/, but when I select either option it does nothing. What can I do?
[16:19] <Esokrates> rita, as i said  lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' will directly output the driver for example in my case nvidia (using proprietary driver)
[16:19] <Araneidae> Jesus ******* Christ.  This is so easy, anybody could do this without any blood pressure risk at all.
[16:19] <Araneidae> Except me.
[16:19] <Araneidae> Grrrrr
[16:19] <Araneidae> Now I have a stupid security password to forget :(
[16:20] <rita_> theadmin, why see untu 12.04 my philips 17" as a philips 15" and i had the same problem with the philips 19"  ubuntu say its a philips 18"
[16:20] <theadmin> rita_: It... really doesn't matter what it says long as the resolution is correct. Is it correct?
[16:20] <Araneidae> Damn.  Still getting boot failure
[16:21] <rita_> theadmin, how can i see of the resolution is correct
[16:21] <theadmin> rita_: Uh, you should be able to tell yourself.
[16:21] <Esokrates> rita, look at the screen
[16:21] <theadmin> rita_: I can't guess what the maximal resolution supported by your monitor is.
[16:22] <anew> my resolution for programs seems huge compared to the desktop ?
[16:22] <rita_> theadmin, i didn't now it
[16:22] <captine> am hoping System 76 start shipping to more countries soon.  need something that will just work...
[16:22] <Araneidae> Oh, good grief.  At long last ... it works.  ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[16:23] <SolarisBoy> rita_: sometimes its easier to look up the monitors (or laptop) documentation and check the supported resolutions/refresh rates etc.

[16:32] <TakeItEZ> !info dovecot | apb1963
[16:32] <Araneidae> If it really mattered, which it doesn't, middle is marginally faster
[16:32] <MK`> ok
[16:32] <apb1963> quantal?  I don't know what that is
[16:32] <bekks> MK`: It doesnt matter, since it will be 1000x times slower than your RAM.
[16:33] <Araneidae> But you won't be able to measure it
[16:33] <MK`> I am aware, just curious :P

[17:11] <Ademan> is there a music player in 12.04 that can rip CDs with working MusicBrainz integration?
[17:12] <x35_> I installed steam on my 12.04 box and now it gnome doesn't start on boot.. Like it will just hang.  I can change terminals though.  Anyone know how I can fix this??
[17:12] <darkray> @bekks i have configured a dhcp server with ip address <IP_ADDRESS> and i want to give ip address to clients in the range <IP_ADDRESS>-<IP_ADDRESS>. could you help me ?
[17:12] <samsam> thanks
[17:12] <samsam> ioria
[17:13] <bekks> darkray: So what have you done until now to do so?
[17:13] <darkray> @bekks: i've tried making changes in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf file
[17:13] <bekks> darkray: Which changes...?
[17:14] <darkray> subnet 10.2.10. netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:14] <darkray> range <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:14] <darkray> and then i restarted dhcp server, but it failed
[17:15] <bekks> darkray: And what was that line before...?
[17:16] <darkray> dhcp server failed to restart
[17:16] <darkray> @bekks: what now ?
[17:16] <bekks> darkray: And what was that line before...?
[17:17] <x35_> I installed steam on my 12.04 box and now it gnome doesn't start on boot.. Like it will just hang.  I can change terminals though.  Anyone know how I can fix this??
[17:17] <bekks> darkray: And did you take a look at the dhcpd logs yet?
[17:17] <darkray> @bekks: i'm sorry but i didnt get you
[17:17] <darkray> @bekks: no i didnt
[17:17] <bekks> darkray: Then do it. And before chaning the line, what did it look like?
[17:18] <darkray> @bekks: earlier i configured dhcp server which ran succesfully:
[17:18] <darkray> subnet <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:18] <darkray> raqnge <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:18] <bekks> darkray: And please omit the "@". This is neither quakenet nor twitter.
[17:19] <darkray> okay
[17:19] <bekks> darkray: Well, then the DHCP range has to be in the same subnet as the DHCP server.
[17:19] <darkray> but if i try to give lease to the clients outside 141. network dhcp server failed to start
[17:20] <bekks> darkray: Well, then the DHCP range has to be in the same subnet as the DHCP server.
[17:20] <darkray> bekks: it's not necessary. it's just that i couldn't able to configure it
[17:20] <darkray> and pls tell me that where i can look for dhcp logs
[17:21] <rjx2> i am new to ubuntu and intrested to use it but my laptop is overheat
[17:21] <bekks> darkray: The log location should be mentioned in the config file.
[17:22] <SonikkuAmerica> rjx2: Overheating? Check your System Monitor.
[17:22] <among> Hello. I've got the feeling that music sounds better on my windows and on phone than on ubuntu. How can I fix that? Shall I download new drivers?
[17:22] <MK`> how long does a 12.04 install usually take? I can't tell if mine is busy or has hung. It's on the "where are you?" screen, I've already hit continue.
[17:23] <bekks> MK`: Half an hour?
[17:23] <MK`> alright, I was hoping it'd be more verbose :P
[17:23] <SonikkuAmerica> MK`: Toward the bottom of the window, there should be an arrow...
[17:23] <MK`> It just has the spinning wheel icon, not saying anything on the bottom.
[17:23] <SonikkuAmerica> MK`: ...next to what it says it's doing.
[17:24] <MK`> Doesn't say, the black bar on the bottom is blank.
[17:24] <Akshayr> hw can i change my nickname in xchat???
[17:24] <SonikkuAmerica> Akshayr: use the /nick command
[17:24] <bekks> Akshayr: "/nick mynewnick"
[17:24] <nydel> type /nick newname
[17:24] <SonikkuAmerica> MK`: Sounds like it froze.
[17:24] <Akshayr> nick AkshayKochi
[17:24] <MK`> :(
[17:25] <nydel> i'm having serious problems with ubuntu, i guess an upgrade got interrupted around kernel 3.5.0-20 and now everything is stuck
[17:25] <bekks> Akshayr: Dont forget the / in front.
[17:25] <Akshayr> bekks : Wat did u mean?
[17:25] <nydel> if there's someone here who can help me please do
[17:25] <AkshayRKochi> thanks bekks
[17:25] <AkshayRKochi> hi bekks
[17:26] <AkshayRKochi> I just installed Ubuntu Studio
[17:26] <AkshayRKochi> and i would like to start from the scratch
[17:26] <bekks> AkshayRKochi: So where's the problem? :)
[17:27] <AkshayRKochi> bekks : no probs
[17:28] <AkshayRKochi> i just wanna learn linux commands and start creating shell scripts
[17:29] <coll> ?/who #nama channel?
[17:30] <AkshayRKochi> join #balasankarc
[17:31] <lehzeni> AkshayRKochi, you need to put a "/" before the join command, like "/join"
[17:35] <chrisbuchholz> So i am creating this program which need to be able to securely store a password and retrieve it when needed, but im in doubt as to how to do this in a way that dont need specific implementation for gnome, kde, and what about those not using a DE? Is there api i can use that works across all this? Perhabs across most of linux distros?
[17:36] <bekks> chrisbuchholz: I dont think there's an API like that.
[17:36] <SonikkuAmerica> bekks/chrisbuchholz: Create a ghost user maybe?
[17:36] <chrisbuchholz> bekks: do you know what the trend is then?
[17:36] <lehzeni> password for what? the program itself?
[17:36] <bekks> SonikkuAmerica: Which will not help in solvin the problem at all.
[17:37] <bekks> chrisbuchholz: I am not that deep into programming, sorry. I'd just use something like the gnome keyring, or the kdewallet.
[17:37] <ioria> SonikkuAmerica: what is a 'ghost user' ?
[17:37] <chrisbuchholz> lehzeni: the program i have created manages encrypted encfs folders. On Mac OS X i use the built in Keychain framework to securely store the password so my program personally dont have to handle that.
[17:37] <chrisbuchholz> bekks: yeah, but that is too installation specific :/
[17:38] <brightspark> chrisbuchholz: try the secret service dbus api
[17:38] <chrisbuchholz> brightspark: thanks, ill take a look
[17:38] <dONALD> Hi people!
[17:39] <dONALD> I have a serious problem with keyboard shortcuts, can anyone help me?
[17:39] <brightspark> chrisbuchholz: you're welcome
[17:39] <MK`> Hm I went to install again. It was doing "copying files" and that completed, so then I selected my location, but now it seems to have frozen again. I think it is related to that part, can anyone help me?
[17:39] <akshayr> dONALD : wats the prob
[17:39] <dONALD> I pressed ctrl+alt+f3 in a game, and everything disappeared, I had to reset my PC
[17:39] <SonikkuAmerica> ioria: Just a user that sits there and takes up space
[17:39] <autobus> hi people
[17:40] <MK`> dONALD: you accidentally switched to another terminal. To switch back, press ctrl-alt-f7
[17:40] <SonikkuAmerica> ioria: without actually being able to log in
[17:40] <dONALD> so is there a way to return to the desktop in such a case, or disable it?
[17:40] <dONALD> wait, let me try
[17:40] <ioria> SonikkuAmerica: thanx  '_'
[17:40] <dONALD> LOL awesome
[17:40] <dONALD> anyway
[17:41] <MK`> :P
[17:41] <dONALD> is there a way to disable it? I need this keyboard shortcut
[17:41] <dONALD> it's the shortcut of the console in Alpha Prime
[17:41] <dONALD> :D
[17:42] <dONALD> the game runs like it was MADE for linux, looks awesome
[17:42] <dONALD> than wham, this happens
[17:42] <lehzeni> I suppose you could run the password through ssl, that has an api, and the end result will be that it becomes encrypted
[17:42] <MK`> should be an option in the keyboard settings somewhere
[17:42] <dONALD> I googled it of course,
[17:42] <dONALD> and my b*tch said
[17:43] <dONALD> (google)
[17:43] <Ronalds_M> how to get one workspace in ubuntu
[17:43] <Ronalds_M> using precise
[17:43] <dONALD> that it's some low level shortcut, outside of X
[17:43] <lehzeni> chrisbuchholz, I suppose you could run the password through ssl, that has an api, and the end result will be that it becomes encrypted
[17:44] <SonikkuAmerica> Ronalds_M: Unity I assume?
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> dONALD, you are inappropriate anyway
[17:44] <dONALD> Ronalds_M: do you have the system tray enabled?
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> Unity assume right
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> using it with combination of kde apps
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> instead of gtk
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> system tray?
[17:44] <dONALD> Ronalds_M: try to search for workspace
[17:44] <Ronalds_M> why wouldn't it
[17:44] <dONALD> LOL never mind
[17:45] <SonikkuAmerica> Ronalds_M: Do you have CompizConfig installed?
[17:45] <Ronalds_M> can I do it without that tool
[17:45] <CaReS> hello friends
[17:45] <Ronalds_M> ccsm is unstable
[17:45] <Ronalds_M> for me
[17:46] <chrisbuchholz> lehzeni: well, i still would have to store it myself right? Dont wanna do that
[17:46] <CaReS> please i have a router tp-link 340g , on ubuntu how can i add a password to dont let anyone works on my wifi?
[17:46] <yeats> CaReS: consult your router's documentation
[17:46] <Ronalds_M> ccsm is the only way?
[17:46] <SonikkuAmerica> Ronalds_M: Typically you can go into CCSM and change your workspaces in the Workspace Switcher plugin.
[17:47] <Ronalds_M> so
[17:47] <Ronalds_M> can I get rid of the icon?
[17:47] <lehzeni> chrisbuchholz, safe it in the encrypted folder itself
[17:47] <CaReS> yeats i try <IP_ADDRESS> and cannot show me the admin login
[17:48] <SonikkuAmerica> Ronalds_M: Not in Precise or Quantal. Raring will have that option.
[17:48] <Ronalds_M> really
[17:48] <kicklighter> CaRes are you from around????
[17:48] <SonikkuAmerica> Ronalds_M: (I know this because I tested Raring in alpha)
[17:48] <yeats> CaReS: yeah - that's not an ubuntu issue - you'll need to check the documentation for your router
[17:48] <Ronalds_M> ok, so is raring enough stable
[17:48] <Ronalds_M> repo anywhere?
[17:48] <brightspark> CaReS: the exact web address varies- on mine it is <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:48] <Ronalds_M> :D

[18:11] <Ankhwatcher> Hey there! I'm having a bit of trouble with my wifi, how can I reset my broadcom driver settings back to standard?

[18:32] <MO_Handes> does ubuntu has touch version or touch support for use with a touch notebook like Asus Vivobook?
[18:32] <Roubles> So am I correct in understanding that ubuntu 12.10 has no non-pae install available?
[18:32] <bekks> Roubles: Yes.
[18:34] <john_rambo>  When I click on alink firefox opens. I want Chromium to open the links. What to do ?
[18:34] <Gerowen> john_rambo: Are you using Ubuntu 12.10?
[18:34] <john_rambo> Gerowen, No. 12.04
[18:35] <Gerowen> john_rambo: Go to "System Settings", you can find it quickly by typing "Settings" into the search bar in the Unity menu, then once you have "System Settings" open, click "Details", in Details there should be an option on the left that says "Default Applications", in there you can change your default web browser.
[18:35] <john_rambo> Okay
[18:36] <Guest11778> `hey
[18:36] <Gerowen> Guest11778: Hey, :-)
[18:36] <Guest11778> i changed networking settings because wired networking wasnt working on ubuuntu but now i cant boot up, login screen just goes to a black screen
[18:37] <anew> question - if i set up a shared folder with virtualbox and automount it, doesnt that automount it on the guest os ? why do i have to run mount -t everytime?
[18:37] <Guest11778> Gerowen: hey
[18:38] <eoss> where does sshd keep logs?   i have no auth log or syslog in var/log
[18:38] <Roubles> If I install an older version of ubuntu from a non-pae image, will this become a problem for me when I need to make updates in the future?

If you could provide some more info like what version of Ubunt you're running, and what other changes were made right around the time the problem started, somebody else in here may be able to help you, :-)

[18:42] <SonikkuAmerica> Roubles: Does your computer support PAE? (Physical Address Extension)
[18:42] <Roubles> It's an old computer, centrino processor I think or pentium m
[18:43] <Roubles> I get an error message each time i try to install, "this kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu: pae" so I am assuming the answer is no.
[18:43] <SonikkuAmerica> Roubles: Guess not. Try getting a non-PAE kernel.
[18:43] <eoss> ls
[18:43] <Roubles> Yep.
[18:43] <SonikkuAmerica> Roubles: Check this: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/how-to-install-ubuntu-1204-on-non-pae.html
[18:44] <Roubles> SonikkuAmerica: Will it cause a problem for me when I update though?
[18:44] <eoss> where does sshd keep logs?   i have no auth log or syslog in var/logs
[18:44] <koffel> hey all i have 10.04 lts with ssd should i have swap?
[18:44] <SonikkuAmerica> Roubles: Currently or after you install the ISO mentioned on the page?
[18:44] <Roubles> After.
[18:45] <Roubles> I mean, there will be kernel updates right?
[18:45] <rita__> ho can i listen to internet radio
[18:45] <Roubles> (I am trying to decide whether it's better just to walk away from ubuntu).
[18:45] <SonikkuAmerica> Roubles: No, you shouldn't. The Mini ISO is designed universally. You probably tried to install with an ISO that had a dependency on PAE.
[18:45] <mdobrinin> hello all, I have a quick question. I am running win7 right now. Is it possible to install Ubuntu on a separate drive with its own boot-loader such that I choose which OS to boot by using the motherboard's boot devices priority?
[18:46] <compdoc> mdobrinin, sure
[18:46] <SonikkuAmerica> mdobrinin: If you install it on another device (such as another HDD), yes.
[18:46] <bilel> is it possible to change a symlink target without having to delete it? The "-f" option odesn't do the trick
[18:46] <mdobrinin> and I don't need to mess with my current hd's bootloader?
[18:46] <SonikkuAmerica> mdobrinin: Although I'm not sure why you would want to do that...
[18:47] <SonikkuAmerica> mdobrinin: Nope.
[18:47] <koffel> i am thinking i doing this wrong this my specs 8 gigs ram 256 sdd running 32 bit
[18:47] <mdobrinin> SonikkuAmerica: I had an issue in the past where grub messed everything up and I had to reformat everything, so I'm trying to keep the OSes as separate as possible :)
[18:47] <DeadWeasel> I figured out my wifi issue.  got a new wifi card.
[18:48] <SonikkuAmerica> mdobrinin: The Windows bootloader won't find Ubuntu, but Ubuntu *might* find Windows, no matter what priority setting you select in your BIOS.
[18:48] <SonikkuAmerica> mdobrinin: Or at least GRUB2
[18:49] <theadmin> bilel: I don't think so, at least the ln manpage doesn't show an option for that
[18:49] <theadmin> bilel: Why do you need to?
[18:49] <mdobrinin> Does the current Windows Installer replace the windows bootloader with GRUB?
[18:49] <theadmin> mdobrinin: Err... no, it does the other way around :P
[18:50] <theadmin> mdobrinin: Oh, you mean WUBI?
[18:50] <mdobrinin> theamin, yes I mean if I install Unbuntu with WUBI or whatever its called
[18:50] <mdobrinin> basically, I want to dual-boot Ubuntu, but minimize the risk of something going wrong :)
[18:50] <theadmin> mdobrinin: It doesn't replace the Windows bootloader with GRUB, it makes the Windows bootloader chainload grub
[18:50] <bilel> theadmin: it's for a deploy script, I'm not sure wether having this small latency time when the symlink doesn't exist is a good idea
[18:51] <bilel> basically it's for symlinking the current production code to the new release
[18:51] <Camel`> Hi
[18:51] <fwilson> Camel`: Welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:53] <bilel> I've made a test script in order to understand the behavior but it looks strange to me : http://pastebin.com/bd61u8Qv
[18:53] <theadmin> bilel: "mkdir a && mkdir b"... Really? "mkdir a b"
[18:53] <theadmin> bilel: Geez
[18:55] <bilel> theadmin: sorry I'm a beginner, hope it didn't burn your eyes too much...
[18:55] <theadmin> bilel: Meh, that's okay, just trying to help learn :D
[18:56] <thufir_> help.  my xfce looks like this:  http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-02162013-105008am.php and I cannot move or resize windows, and clicking on windows doesn't always bring them to the foreground.  The windows have "x _ []" to close, min or max the window.  it's very odd.
[18:57] <bilel> theadmin: np ;) but do you understand the output, apparently it should work but it' not the case, see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1727280/is-there-a-way-to-edit-a-symlink-without-deleting-it-first for example
[18:57] <rita__> why can't i directy listen to the live stream of q-music.be but well when i copy the link in rhytmbox
[18:57] <thufir_> pardon, the windows do *not* have close, max or min buttons.  theirs a whole part of how windows tile, lay on top of each other, resize etc which is just suddenly broken.
[18:58] <theadmin> bilel: Well, as you see, it should work with "ln -sf"
[19:00] <rita__> where did thunderbird store the mail files
[19:02] <rita__> where store thunderbird the mail files
[19:03] <bilel> theadmin: that's what I did, a comment below says it only works for files not folders, anyway I'll go for "rm mirror && ln ..." in that case
[19:03] <bilel> thx
[19:04] <TheSwede> Hey guys can you help me out with my ubunutu problem?
[19:04] <DJones> TheSwede: Only if you explain what the problem is :)
[19:05] <Naphatul> ok so here's the 'new' error that i've been getting: http://pastebin.com/Lc7TLCMj
[19:05] <rita__> TheSwede, what is the problem
[19:05] <Naphatul> could anyone take a look? it's frustrating not getting clear error messages
[19:05] <Naphatul> wrong channel sorry
[19:05] <theadmin> bilel: You can't "rm" a symlink like that, use "unlink"
[19:06] <go8765_P> rapoo h3050 + ubuntu  реально?
[19:06] <TheSwede> Okay so here it is. I am trying to install the windows installer and dual boot it. I installed it to my seperate hard drive that does not have windows installed on it and it seemed to go okay. Then when I rebooted and chose ubuntu it asked me to put in the windows recovery CD and then directed me back to choose a boot option.
[19:06] <bazhang> TheSwede, wubi?
[19:07] <TheSwede> yep
[19:07] <go8765_P> *sorry. rapoo h3050 + ubuntu  is real to use?
[19:07] <bazhang> !ru | go8765_P
[19:08] <TheSwede> i only had 10Gb free on my C: drive so i installed to to my D: drive instead to let me allocate more space to ubuntu
[19:10] <TheSwede> anything?
[19:11] <ThinkT510> TheSwede: i can recommend not using wubi
[19:11] <wad> Anyone else messing with the new Ubuntu steam?
[19:11] <bazhang> wad, #ubuntu-steam
[19:11] <wad> Ah, thanks!
[19:12] <TheSwede> okay, so if i was to install the 12.04 desktop version would it delete everything from the partition that it would be instlled to?
[19:12] <ThinkT510> TheSwede: only if you specify it to
[19:12] <TheSwede> how would i do that?
[19:13] <fwilson> I believe there's an option in the installer -- something along the lines of "Use whole disk"
[19:13] <ThinkT510> TheSwede: naturally you'd need a separate partition for ubuntu
[19:13] <fwilson> wait nvm that's the disk not the partition
[19:14] <ThinkT510> !partitioning | TheSwede
[19:16] <TheSwede> the thing is that I already have a partition on the drive. So i cant create a new one
[19:17] <Ice_Strike> I am considering moving to Ubunto from Windows 8 but how can I use Photoshop on Linux?
[19:17] <Ice_Strike> and also Skype (with webcam support?)
[19:17] <bekks> TheSwede: Then how do you want to install Ubuntu without having space for it?
[19:17] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: Only via Wine. Skype is available natively.
[19:17] <DJones> Ice_Strike: Try using Gimp for photo editing
[19:17] <Ice_Strike> I knew someone will say  Gimp
[19:17] <Ice_Strike> Yuck
[19:18] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: You can run PS in Wine, it works fine most of the time iirc
[19:18] <bazhang> Ice_Strike, check the appdb
[19:18] <TheSwede> i have 200Gb free im just wondering if i can install it to that partition and not delete my files that are on the same partition
[19:18] <Ice_Strike> theadmin I was thinking running virtual PC on Linux and install Windows on top
[19:18] <bekks> TheSwede: Only using Wubi which is not recommended.
[19:18] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: That'd work too
[19:18] <bekks> TheSwede: You could use virtualbox as well.
[19:19] <Ice_Strike> theadmin Which would be faster as performance?
[19:19] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: Wine would, most of the time, though on a decent machine it shouldn't matter...
[19:19] <TheSwede> i guess. I am just going to do a little experimenting for a while and get back to you guys if i have anymore problems
[19:20] <yeats> Ice_Strike: you can also run Windows in vbox (or just dual boot) if you don't want to let go of Windows
[19:20] <DJones> Ice_Strike: I've got XP & W7 in Vbox, both run pretty quickly (4gb, i3 laptop), I'd say its as fast as a native install if that helps
[19:20] <Ice_Strike> DJones Thats sweet
[19:21] <Ice_Strike> what about Skype
[19:21] <Ice_Strike> with webcam
[19:21] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: Skype is available natively, like I said already.
[19:21] <Ice_Strike> Hmm I see
[19:21] <kicklighter> people i installed the plasma netbook in ubuntu software center but nothing happens????
[19:21] <MK`> Hm I went to install again. It was doing "copying files" and that completed, so then I selected my location, but now it seems to have frozen again. I think it is related to that specific part, can anyone help me? I verified the md5 of the ISO...
[19:22] <theadmin> kicklighter: Nothing will just "happen", you have to log in to it :/
[19:22] <go87651> I by rapoo h3050 headphones but in wireles mode they not working. is anyway to fix this?
[19:22] <kicklighter> and what should i state in the terminal
[19:23] <kicklighter> i  boot the thing log and out.....
[19:23] <mdobrinin> Do I have to shrink my windows 7 partition to accommodate Ubuntu if I'm using WUBI? Or does it sit inside?
[19:24] <bekks> mdobrinin: It sits inside. You'd better use vbox.
[19:24] <theadmin> mdobrinin: It installs to a file.
[19:24] <theadmin> mdobrinin: You can install normally if you wish to do partitioning
[19:24] <theadmin> mdobrinin: It's just a single button, really, "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows" :P
[19:24] <mdobrinin> I am fine with it sitting inside, is ther a reason I would use vbox?
[19:25] <theadmin> mdobrinin: Well, wubi is broken half the time
[19:25] <mdobrinin> :(
[19:25] <Ice_Strike> on Windows - I never had problem with my PC shutdown accidently or powercut
[19:25] <Ice_Strike> Should be no problem with Ubunto?
[19:25] <bekks> Ice_Strike: It is no problem with Ubunt_u_
[19:25] <kicklighter> i virtualbox you install steam for windows.....only in a tiny box....but that's all i need.....
[19:26] <Ice_Strike> bekks not even panic error issue ? :P
[19:26] <ilovett> can someone please help tell me why I can see a 2nd hard drive but cant mount it http://pastebin.com/NcuJvzHP
[19:26] <bekks> Ice_Strike: Whatever that may be. When having a panic, there is no facility living anymore that could display something.
[19:26] <ilovett> sdb is what im trying to mount, it was formatted in windows I think
[19:27] <kicklighter> i still got the prob plasma notebook....need some help
[19:27] <bekks> ilovett: sdb is an entire drive, not a partition.
[19:27] <DJones> Ice_Strike: I've been using Ubuntu since 2006, I've not had any issues that couldn't be easily recovered from, certainly less issues than if I'd been using Windows
[19:28] <MoL0ToV> 03:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 5289 (rev 01)
[19:28] <MoL0ToV>  suggestions?
[19:28] <bekks> MoL0ToV: On what?
[19:28] <Ice_Strike> DJones Ok that is good to hear..
[19:28] <ilovett> bekks: I can use it when in windows 7 -- what do I need to do to be able to use it in ubuntu?
[19:28] <MoL0ToV> bekks, is a card reader howto recognize?
[19:28] <bekks> ilovett: In Windows, there is a partition on that drive.
[19:29] <MK`> I got it working by disabling networking before selecting my location. That appears to have been making it hang.
[19:29] <bekks> MoL0ToV: I dont get what you are actually asking, I am sorry.
[19:29] <ilovett> bekks: do I have to reformat in linux? or can I just read / create the windows partition
[19:29] <Ice_Strike> DJones If I install Ubuntu - what do I need to install and config for security?
[19:30] <Ice_Strike> Do you all use Linux as root login?
[19:30] <bekks> ilovett: No. You have to mount the partition not the entire drive.
[19:30] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: Nobody does that.
[19:30] <bekks> ilovett: Hopefully noone have an open root login anymore.
[19:30] <Ice_Strike> theadmin Serious?
[19:30] <DJones> Ice_Strike: Ubuntu doesn't use root as default
[19:30] <Ice_Strike> Ah?
[19:30] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: Yes, nobody uses a root account unless it's an admin task.
[19:30] <SterkaSor> will ubuntu 12.04.3 have kernel from 13.04?
[19:30] <bekks> !root | Ice_Strike
[19:30] <ilovett> bekks: there is no dropdown available in pysdm for sdb
[19:31] <bekks> ilovett: Whatever psydm might be. Pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l please.
[19:31] <theadmin> Ice_Strike: In Ubuntu, the root account does technically exist but it's locked out (disabled), so use sudo for admin tasks
[19:31] <bekks> !paste | ilovett
[19:31] <motorsep> hi
[19:31] <Ice_Strike> theadmin I get it now

[19:32] <kicklighter> if i kubuntu plasma netbook .. will it change my default unity....and suggestions???
[19:32] <theadmin> kicklighter: It won't change anything... you have to log out, select a KDE session and log in to use it.
[19:32] <kicklighter> try it
[19:32] <andreas__> can anyone offer me some advice on voyager 12.10?
[19:33] <motorsep> I booted up Ubuntu today, logged in, a wallpaper momentarily flashed and Ubuntu went back to login screen. That's when I tried loggin in with Unity desktop. Logged in with Gnome without any issues. Any ideas how to fix?
[19:33] <ilovett> bekks: http://pastebin.com/NcuJvzHP
[19:33] <ubuntu22> I have a fresh install of 12.04 and I am having trouble making a call in skype, it will just crash.
[19:33] <Myrtti> andreas__: if it's not Ubuntu or officially supported derivative of it, then no
[19:34] <bekks> ilovett: As you can see, there is a partition called "sdb1".
[19:34] <theadmin> Myrtti: ...I think Voyager is a web browser used in QNX... But uh.
[19:34] <SterkaSor> Is nvidia geforce go 7400 still blacklisted to run Unity in ubuntu 12.04?
[19:34] <andreas_> hello
[19:34] <SterkaSor> or any newer ubuntu release
[19:35] <ilovett> bekks: ok, I have been using pysdm up to this point, its a nice mounting gui --- I will try to mount it manually
[19:35] <ilovett> bekks: thanks
[19:35] <andreas_> is there anyone who can assist me with voyager?
[19:37] <aartist> How I can print from ubuntu?  Is this a no-brainer?
[19:38] <theadmin> aartist: Should be the same way you print from anywhere else, open a document and click "Print" in whatever you open it with...
[19:38] <theadmin> aartist: You can print plain text files with "lp" from the CLI, too.
[19:39] <kicklighter> thank you people or whoever help me plasma netbook it look reall stunning .... lol!!!!

[19:42] <compdoc> Delux, I would just disconnect the other drives until after the OS installs. Btw, why couldnt it write to /dev/sda? sounds like thats lucky for you that it couldnt
[19:43] <Delux> compdoc - i dont have physical access to this box and it couldnt write to sda because it's not partitioned
[19:44] <snubbe> hi, anyone know a ubuntu alternative to itunes for updating ios-devices?

[19:44] <compdoc> Delux, and you cant use /dev/sda for the OS?
[19:45] <bekks> snubbe: There is none. You need Windows/OSX and iTunes.
[19:45] <Checkpoint> Thanks guys! :) I want to dedicate a computer to a very simple, special program of mine. 1) I'd like the fastest booting linux distro available. So if I turn on the power, I'd like the system to start as soon as possible. 2) I don't want a regular desktop GUI. I'd like it to power on and jump into my program. Do you remember playing playstation or xbox? You put the disc in and powered on,
[19:45] <Checkpoint> and then you were right in the game. You didn't need to click a shortcut or navigate any folders or anything.  A computer where you turn on the power and the desktop is my simple program.
[19:45] <Delux> compdoc - I dont want to
[19:45] <Delux> it's a smaller drive
[19:45] <Checkpoint> How would I build something like this?
[19:46] <theadmin> Checkpoint: Well, you'd go with a plain X based setup and put your program startup directives into your .xinitrc, then make sure X starts on boot...
[19:46] <Checkpoint> I'm thinking I might just be able to create my own Desktop/GUI. Maybe I don't need to make a new "base" linux?
[19:46] <ThinkT510> Checkpoint: probably better asked in ##linux
[19:46] <DJones> Checkpoint: Sounds like something for ##hardware and ##linux rather than an Ubuntu support question
[19:46] <Checkpoint> Xubuntu, theadmin?
[19:46] <theadmin> Checkpoint: No, "X" as in no desktop environment, just the Xorg server
[19:47] <Checkpoint> Cool
[19:47] <Checkpoint> theadmin you rule!

[20:00] <Delux> http://oi48.tinypic.com/dwfalh.jpg < what causes this error - I dont want to loaded to /dev/sda
[20:00] <bekks> ilovett: Thats not NTFS. :)
[20:00] <ilovett> why does fdisk say it is?
[20:01] <ilovett> maybe its fat?
[20:01] <bekks> ilovett: We dont know it.
[20:01] <bekks> ilovett: It is your disk :)
[20:01] <ilovett> lol
[20:01] <ilovett> how does fdisk determine the type of hd?
[20:02] <bekks> ilovett: fdisk doesnt care about the FILESYSTEM, it only displays the PARTITION type.
[20:02] <ilovett> right then, the partition
[20:03] <MK`> My Ubuntu install is hanging at "Copying installation files." is it safe to reboot and consider it complete?
[20:03] <ilovett> /dev/sdb1               1       60802   488383488    7  HPFS/NTFS
[20:03] <bekks> ilovett: The partition type has NOTHING to do withe filesystem on the partition.
[20:04] <ilovett> yea, but fdisk -l produces "System: HPFS/NTFS"
[20:04] <Igneous> oh lawd
[20:04] <bekks> ilovett: The partition type has NOTHING to do withe filesystem on the partition.
[20:04] <ilovett> is that not neccessarily correct?
[20:04] <bekks> ilovett: Read what I told you :)
[20:04] <ilovett> i think im reading fdisk wrong...

[20:13] <gueriLLaPunK> install: missing destination file operand after `libssp0_4.1.1-21_amd64.deb'
[20:13] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: "install" doesn't install things...
[20:13] <gueriLLaPunK> oh
[20:13] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: You want "sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb"
[20:13] <gueriLLaPunK> oh thanks!
[20:13] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: May need to run "sudo apt-get -f install" afterwards if it complains about missing deps
[20:13] <Igneous> the real question is why are you manually installing debs
[20:14] <theadmin> ...That too
[20:14] <theadmin> !find libssp
[20:14] <gueriLLaPunK> http://archive.debian.net/etch/amd64/libssp0/download
[20:14] <Igneous> oh lord
[20:14] <gueriLLaPunK> i need that
[20:14] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: Why are you installing a DEBIAN package in UBUNTU?
[20:14] <linus> there are many reasons to manually install a package, not found in a repository or a ppa is the main one, but i could think of three more
[20:14] <jakey1> Are there 'things' that I could do with a custom designed CMS that I couldn't do with joomla, wordpress etc.?
[20:14] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: They're NOT compatible distros.
[20:14] <gueriLLaPunK> :\
[20:15] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: what's the problem you're running into that caused you to start hunting for that package in the first place?
[20:16] <gueriLLaPunK> im trying to compile rtorrent with xmlrpc-c and i got this error
[20:16] <gueriLLaPunK> configure: error: Could not compile XMLRPC-C test.
[20:17] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: Why are you compiloing rtorrent.
[20:17] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: It's in the repos.
[20:17] <theadmin> gueriLLaPunK: sudo apt-get install rtorrent
[20:18] <linus> @gueriLLaPunk you are going to need more of that error before your problem can be solved
[20:18] <gueriLLaPunK> i know its in the repos, but i was told i need xmlrpc-c with rtorrent
[20:18] <gueriLLaPunK> im following a guide
[20:18] <anew> shit, i made my bash prompt bold and now i cant put it back to normal
[20:18] <anew> can anyone help
[20:18] <betz1> Hi! I am looking for a command that would copy a folder, but where i get a progress indication. Does anyone know such command?
[20:19] <theadmin> betz1: vcp
[20:19] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: fair enough, I'd think that rtorrent was built with all possible options when it was packaged, but maybe not
[20:19] <betz1> checking it out
[20:19] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: can you maybe provide a bit more context than that one line regarding your build error?
[20:19] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: maybe pastebin the entire make log?
[20:19] <anew> lol i got it luckily
[20:19] <theadmin> betz1: Sorry, meant gcp, seems it's been renamed or something.
[20:20] <gueriLLaPunK> well, i just finished compiling and installing libtorrent, got no errors, Igneous
[20:20] <gueriLLaPunK> that was the last time in the error
[20:20] <gueriLLaPunK> it was doing a bunch of "checking..."
[20:20] <gueriLLaPunK> "checking for...
[20:20] <OerHeks> betz1, rsync --progress /copy/from /copy/to
[20:21] <MK`> what is the name of the 64-bit steam package?
[20:21] <gueriLLaPunK> Igneous, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1665548/
[20:21] <theadmin> MK`: "steam64", but it's not real.
[20:22] <theadmin> MK`: There's no real 64-bit version of Steam, so that just pulls in the 32-bit version
[20:22] <MK`> ok
[20:22] <MK`> hm, I am getting 'unable to locate package steam64', same for just 'steam'.
[20:23] <Pr0jectRec0n> Hello buddy
[20:23] <theadmin> MK`: Also, for some odd reason, the Steam packages are in a private-ppa, so it's only installable via the Software Centre.
[20:23] <MK`> ah
[20:23] <MK`> It's only letting me select "Buy" instead of "install"... is that correct?
[20:23] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: is there any further information in the config.log? there should be some compiler output associated with trying to compile and run that test, it would've gotten logged to config.log but not to stdout.
[20:23] <theadmin> MK`: Yeah, it costs $0.00 though so you will not be charged, but you will need an USSO account.
[20:24] <MK`> alright
[20:24] <Guest10066> I'm JUTAS. I'm from a LIVE CD.  There is no monitors.xml in the .config folder on the real filesystem partition
[20:25] <betz1> ok, rsync will do. thanks OerHeks and theadmin for the help
[20:25] <gueriLLaPunK> how do i copy and paste everything in config.log?
[20:25] <bekks> !pastebinit | gueriLLaPunK
[20:26] <Igneous> !sprunge
[20:26] <gueriLLaPunK> ty
[20:26] <Igneous> lame
[20:26] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: imo if you have curl installed you can throw it up on sprunge a lot easier than installing some script
[20:26] <theadmin> Igneous: Except it comes preinstalled :P
[20:27] <Igneous> ah, that I did not know
[20:27] <theadmin> Igneous: Nowadays anyway
[20:27] <gueriLLaPunK> so whats the cmd that i need to use before pastebinit?
[20:27] <gueriLLaPunK> to send config.log
[20:27] <Igneous> cat config.log
[20:27] <gueriLLaPunK> ahhh
[20:28] <Igneous> derp
[20:28] <gueriLLaPunK> Igneous, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1665585/
[20:28] <theadmin> !sprunge is <reply> Sprunge is a simple, text-only pastebin that you can upload files to via the command-line. To use, make sure "curl" is installed, and then run your_command | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
[20:29] <theadmin> There, for the heck of it :P
[20:29] <theadmin> Igneous: You could also simply do "pastebinit config.log"...
[20:29]  * Igneous sitting in a ubuntu rescue session wih no TTYs to check the usage of pastebinit
[20:30] <Igneous> but noted :P
[20:30] <theadmin> Igneous: You can still read the manpage eh
[20:31] <Igneous> maybe if I background irssi
[20:31] <Igneous> I'm lazy
[20:31] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: so, it looks like that "checking for XMLRPC-C, result: failed" is probably a pkgconfig check for something
[20:31] <Igneous> I wish I knew what though, haha
[20:32] <Igneous> give me a sec to google around
[20:32] <gueriLLaPunK> thank you kindly
[20:32] <DJones> Igneous: Why background irssi? Thats where byobu/screen come in :)
[20:32] <theadmin> Or tmux.
[20:32] <gueriLLaPunK> Igneous, i found an updated guide. im trying that
[20:33] <gueriLLaPunK> it makes use of curl and svn
[20:33] <Igneous> gueriLLaPunK: yeah I think the problem is actually more that --with-xmlrpc-c isn't a config option
[20:33] <Igneous> so it's looking for an ac test to enable that, and it's not there
[20:33] <Delux> Trying to install Ubuntu Server on /dev/sdc1 but when it comes to selecting where to install the GRUB boot loader it fails to install. I tired selecting /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdc - any thoughts?
[20:33] <Igneous> or maybe I'm full of it
[20:34] <Tatuus> Hi! Ubuntu 12.10... Doesn't recognize ANY dvd... Cd yes.. installed sudo apt-get install libdvdcss libdvdread4 libdvdnav4 -so whats my next move ?
[20:34] <xpistos> has anyone had luck installing guest addtitions on an ubuntu guest in Vbox? Version 12.04.2 or 12.10
[20:35] <Igneous> it's been a while, let me re-ask this: I'm on a fresh 12.04 install, trying to get fglrx to work with a firegl v5700/mobility hd3650. fglrx installs, the kmod loads, xorg starts up and logs lots of pretty success messages, but xorg hangs at '[fglrx] FIREGL BOARD DETECTED'
[20:35]  * |Slacker| had
[20:35] <gueriLLaPunK> Igneous, have you tried turning it off and on again?
[20:35] <|Slacker|> xpistos, I ain't got no problems installing vbox guest additions
[20:36] <Igneous> I just get a black screen, can't kill xorg, sometimes I can't even do 'ps aux', things get so hung up
[20:36] <Igneous> nothing particularly helpful in my dmesg, or any logs for that matter :(
[20:36] <Tatuus> do i need to mount something ? I'm don't understand, cd's play but dvd's do nothing in drive
[20:37] <Igneous> Works fine with xf86-video-ati or whatever ubuntu calls it though
[20:37] <Igneous> just fglrx sucking
[20:37] <xpistos> |Slacker|: I won't install right for me. Did you do anyting special?
[20:37] <|Slacker|> Tatuus, there's alittle command you need to run in terminal....gimme a minute, I'll get that
[20:37] <Tatuus> THanks SLacker =)
[20:38] <Tatuus> i played dvd's fine before if i recall right
[20:38] <xpistos> I have tried 12.04.2 and 12.10. I tried using virtualbox-guest-utils, the cd ...
[20:38] <|Slacker|> xpistos, I had to access the folder through the terminal and run de vbox-guest-install as sudo from there
[20:39] <ErtanERBEK> anyone use optirun ?
[20:39] <|Slacker|> Tatuus, checke whether your system has libdvdread installed
[20:39] <ErtanERBEK> I mean anyone have nvidia optimus system
[20:39] <DeadWeasel> Whta is acceptable packets loss in ubuntu when using wireless?
[20:39] <Tatuus> Slacer, yes it's installed
[20:39] <Tatuus> LivDVDread4
[20:40] <Tatuus> also Libdvdcss
[20:40] <xpistos> http://pastebin.com/XC8n9h5K
[20:40] <|Slacker|> Tatuus, try this: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
[20:40] <Tatuus> and libdvdnav4 installed
[20:40] <xpistos> I am going to try install the headers it asks for
[20:40] <Tatuus> Ok thanks, i try
[20:41] <xpistos> but I had this in an earlier version as well with no luck
[20:41] <|Slacker|> xpistos, oh...yeah...you'll need the headers
[20:41] <|Slacker|> I needed
[20:41] <sibis> Hi, I just installed ubuntu over Vista, and now the mouse is laggy and screen keeps flashing, any advice?
[20:42] <aartist> I see around 3000+ program in my /usr/bin,  what are they doing ? How they got installed , How I can find brief description of them?
[20:42] <hacker> worldofhacker.com
[20:42] <xpistos> not sure what lines 11 and 12 do though
[20:42] <Tatuus> No, still absolutely nothing... Cd's recognized though.. Could this be a damaged dvd drive? I'm very confused
[20:42] <|Slacker|> aartist, Ubuntu Software Centre
[20:43] <|Slacker|> Tatuus, I read somewhere that after that command a reboot might be needed
[20:43] <Tatuus> Ok.... rebooting
[20:43] <Tatuus> thanks in advance
[20:43] <Guest43026> hi! I have the laptop: HP Pavilon b005ea, which comes with Windows 8 (UEFI added, of course). I want to get rid of W8 and install just ubuntu. The PC has a 32G SSD (sdb) + 512G HD (sda). I tried several times to install / in the 32G but after BIOS I get the message not operative system found (in UEFI and in normal BIOS). I've removed all the fake raids too. Any clue?
[20:44] <eternalW8hate> I've tried boot repair too, but not luck at all
[20:44] <|Slacker|> eternalW8hate, have you wiped all the partitions?
[20:45] <aartist> |Slacker|: Can I get that information in emacs?
[20:46] <Ackis> so I installed ubuntu and managed to mess things up so that I don't have the quick launch bar on the left side, nor do I have the menu bar on the top... pretty good for 5 minutes of use eh?
[20:46] <eternalW8hate> |Slacker|: yes. I've removed them on the installation process, and then create the news that I need: / in sdb and /home + swap in sda. I've tried with this bootgrub kind of partition too, but didn't work either :(
[20:46] <|Slacker|> aartist, dunno, dude...I ain't an advanced user
[20:46] <ErtanERBEK> anyone can give me glxgear result via optirun ?
[20:46] <|Slacker|> eternalW8hate, you have to create a 1MB partition with Bios_grub flag, otherwise it will never boot
[20:47] <|Slacker|> uefi systems require this
[20:47] <Tatuus> Slacker.... Rebooted... still nothing. Cd's recognized still. I noticed that when i booted, the "boot from cd" with DVD disc in drive didn't even check the disk... maybe my dvd drive is damaged?
[20:47] <|Slacker|> by the way...I needed to creat a 2MB partition, for some reason 1MB didn't work for me
[20:47] <ericus> Hey guys! Is there any easy way to remove two language sections from a PDF file? When I scroll from page 1 to the next page, it's in french and germany. So, there is a lot of scrolling to be done (650 pages). Screenshot of the PDf chapters:
 Playback Complete.

[20:47] <FloodBot1> ericus: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
 hmm, någon som vill hjälpa mig med att få bort sektioner från en PDF-fil?
[20:47] <|Slacker|> Tatuus, maybe, yes
[20:48] <eternalW8hate> |Slacker|: what do you call tag? I've created 256M boot grub (this was on the list)
[20:48] <|Slacker|> eternalW8hate, how did you create it? using the Disks Utility?
[20:48] <Tatuus> i try to replace the drive... and get back to you... if still no go, it suppose it's odd :D
[20:48] <eternalW8hate> |Slacker|: yep, the partition program at installation (Advanced option)
[20:48] <|Slacker|> and I said flag, not tag :p
[20:49] <edgewalker> Hi all! Anyone have any opinions on 12.04.2 LTS? The update manager said it's available.
[20:49] <eternalW8hate> |Slacker|: sorry :D I read about that flag/tag, but I just thought that was this kind of partition and this is all
[20:49] <|Slacker|> eternalW8hate, you need to have an  unformatted partition of at least 1MB reserved for the BIOS
[20:49] <xpistos> AH, Now it said I am having a problem with depmod
[20:49] <eternalW8hate> |Slacker|: I am on live system now, I will try to do it and let you know
[20:49] <|Slacker|> when you create it, you go in advanced and select BIOS whatever I forgot the name

[20:50] <|Slacker|> at the drop down menu for the FS
[20:50] <eternalW8hate> ah ok, this is exactly what I made then |Slacker|
[20:50] <eternalW8hate> I will start the installation process again. But before that. Should I change my BIOS back? use uefi or legacy mode?
[20:51] <|Slacker|> I couldn't do it with UEFI, I had to disable it
[20:51] <eternalW8hate> The manuals on internet recommend keeping uefi, but it didn't really wokr
[20:51] <eternalW8hate> ok |Slacker| then, summarizing: disable UEFI + enable legacy + add boot partition of 10M?
[20:51] <|Slacker|> yup, it might work I guess
[20:52] <hacker> worldofhacker.com
[20:52] <eternalW8hate> ok |Slacker| thanks!
[20:52] <|Slacker|> just remember it needs to be an unformatted BIOS whatever the name is partition :P
[20:52] <hacker> http://www.worldofhacker.com/Article-FACEBOOK-HACKED-IN-ZERO-DAY-ATTACK
[20:52] <|Slacker|> np dude
[20:52] <aartist> |Slacker|: ok.. It would be nice, if it is available, like Emacs package manager.. .
[20:53] <TomSlominski> hi. how do i kill specific python scripts from the command line?
[20:53] <aartist> TomSlominski: get pid and kill ..
[20:53] <ericus> TomSlominski, ps ax | grep python, find the process and kill it
[20:53] <|Slacker|> TomSlominski, ps -A | grep nameofscript?
[20:54] <TomSlominski> perhaps I haven't phrased the question right

[20:56] <albivian> ubuntu 12.04 on thinkpad  t40
[20:56] <|Slacker|> albivian, your device is hard locked, maybe?
[20:56] <k1l> albivian: look at lspci/lsusb if the device is found. check rfkill if its blocked. see dmesg what happens
[20:56] <wizack> How do I execute "empathy"?
[20:56] <albivian> k11
[20:56] <wizack> I've installed everything mentioned at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Empathy

[20:56] <albivian> k1l: will try it briefly
[20:57] <wizack> k1l: What is supper-button?

[20:57] <TomSlominski> this is actually meant to be used in an init script
