[09:58] <lordievader> Jotek: Also what card do you have? I see on nVidia's website several under GeForce 2 MX.
[09:58] <GeorgeJ> The issue seems to apply to ALL pop-ups(even browser dropdowns).
[09:58] <ThinkT510> GeorgeJ: are you using unity?
[09:58] <GeorgeJ> ThinkT510: I am.
[09:58] <W4sp> GeorgeJ: Do you have ccsm? Terminal and 'ccsm &' should give you that. But ccsm isn't really supported.
[09:59] <GeorgeJ> W4sp: I do have ccsm.
[09:59] <ThinkT510> GeorgeJ: just so you know, it is not recommended to change settings in ccsm, it can break unity
[09:59] <Jotek> lordievader: I have Jockey already on my pc, and nope, it doesnt works. My card is GeForce2 MX
[09:59] <GeorgeJ> Restarting the X session would probably fix this(it did before), but this isn't really a fix.
[09:59] <GeorgeJ> ThinkT510: I've not changed any settings using ccsm, afair.
[09:59] <W4sp> ThinkT510: Please go ahead as I do not have GNOME in use. The issue is an off behavior that I belive is related to sloppy focus, auto-raise and active window hover mouse.
[10:00] <GeorgeJ> The issue randomly occurs.
[10:00] <W4sp> s/off/odd
[10:00] <GeorgeJ> W4sp: I've found auto-raise. It is not enabled.
[10:01] <GeorgeJ> Enabling it does not fix the issue.
[10:01] <Jotek> lordievader: I have found an "nvidia96" driver for my card in repository (Synaptic) but I cannot download it.
[10:02] <SEEVCar> hi i think i have a 64bit cpu how can i tell?
[10:02] <lordievader> Jotek: If the current driver really isn't working out you might try a manual install of the closed-source driver.
[10:02] <lordievader> Jotek: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/35555
[10:02] <lordievader> Jotek: And the readme: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/96.43.20/README/index.html
[10:03] <Jotek> lordievader: thanks :).
[10:03] <W4sp> GeorgeJ: Yes, better not use ccsm. I understand that not everything that ccsm is capable of is supported by GNOME3/Unity.
[10:03] <ThinkT510> SEEVCar: sudo lshw
[10:03] <timfrost> !64bit | SEEVCar
[10:04] <lordievader> Jotek: Do note that the manual install (usually) involves killing X, in other words your GUI.
[10:04] <GeorgeJ> Meh, I'
[10:04] <GeorgeJ> I'll just relog.
[10:04] <Jotek> lordievader: why?
[10:04] <SEEVCar> iv got a amd sempron 3000+
[10:05] <lordievader> Jotek: In the past the nVidia driver required X to be stopped if you wanted to install it, however I might be living in the past, let me check the manual.
[10:06] <Jotek> lordievader: I cannot find there my graphic card :/.
[10:06] <GeorgeJ> Actually, killing compiz(so it restarts) seems to have worked just fine!
[10:06] <lordievader> Jotek: Nope it still is, I quote the manual: Prior to beginning the installation, you should exit the X server and kill all OpenGL applications
[10:06] <lordievader> Jotek: It's under legacy, it is quite an old card.
[10:06] <Jotek> lordievader: yup, I know, so there is nothing to do?
[10:07] <lordievader> Jotek: What do you mean?
[10:07] <Jotek> lordievader: Is there way to make it working or not?
[10:07] <GeorgeJ> W4sp, ThinkT510: Thanks!
[10:08] <lordievader> Jotek: I'm not sure what your problem is, your GF2MX is probably one of the tree listed.
[10:08] <SEEVCar> ThinkT510: thanks 64 bits cool i can have a look at the zorin 64 respin :)
[10:08] <ThinkT510> GeorgeJ: i didn't do much but your welcome :)
[10:08] <Jotek> lordievader: huh, I don't understand
[10:09] <GeorgeJ> Is there any way of switching workplaces on monitors separately?
[10:10] <lordievader> Jotek: Well you say you have an GeForce 2 MX (GF2MX), there are in the driver search three listed under the "GeForce 2 MX series"
[10:11] <SEEVCar> thanks guys ;)
[10:11] <Martiini> pliiz helpp! I'm trying to recover broken HP laptop && install opensuse on sda5 (since my Dell laptop died week ago). ..  Most distro installers crash during installation (live environment runs fine). .. ok .. HOW-DO-I set nice value of installer process .. (so it won't overheat CPU and kill the process)
[10:11] <Jotek> lordievader: yay! Found it now.
[10:13] <lordievader> Jotek: I say again, note that you have to kill X, so you have no access to a gui webbrowser on that particular machine.
[10:14] <Jotek> lordievader: im affraid that I wont get it working without gui...

[10:42] <Dr_Willis> wonder when 12.04.1 will be out..
[10:42] <lordievader> Dr_Willis: Ain't it already: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS is what my lsb_release shows me.
[10:43] <ThinkT510> Dr_Willis: 23rd
[10:43] <ThinkT510> Dr_Willis: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/ReleaseSchedule
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> thought it was soon. ;)

[10:59] <Jake232> I',m having trouble connecting to memcached from outsie localhost, but I think the issue is probably my usage of ufw
[11:00] <Jake232> This should allow me to connect to port 12111 correct? https://gist.github.com/8aa3c0c6f5e0e16cf741
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> !info memcached
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> no idea what that does from its description... ;)
[11:06] <Jake232> Well, I guess my question extends to anything, rather than memcached. I don't think its memcached not accepting connections to the port
[11:06] <Jake232> It's more likely ubuntu in some way
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> port forwarding/firewalling fundamentals.. ;)
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> !firewall
[11:06] <Jake232> Yeah, I've read through that, which is how I got to https://gist.github.com/8aa3c0c6f5e0e16cf741
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> i rarely mess with the firewall stuff
[11:07] <Jake232> and it works on localhost, telnet localhost 11211
[11:07] <Jake232> works perfectly
[11:07] <Jake232> however telnet server.ip 11211 just gets "Trying <IP_ADDRESS>…" and then hangs
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> turn off all firewall rules as atest
[11:08] <zykes-> what is a good chunk size for a mdadm raid with 3-5*2tb disks ?
[11:08] <dupondje> Would it be possible to install grub2 on a partitionless system with LVM ?
[11:08] <dupondje> so with pvcreate /dev/sda (so there are no partitions)
[11:09] <KeithWeisshar> why do I get a blank screen when booting the ubuntu 12.04 lts dvd on my gtx 570 unless i use nodmaset
[11:09] <KeithWeisshar> and also when i use nodmaset there is a black border on all four sides of my 1920x1080 widescreen monitor
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> plymouth and the nvidia drivers like to fight
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> the actual nvidia driver may fix the wrong res issue
[11:10] <KeithWeisshar> does anyone else have the same time
[11:10] <KeithWeisshar> same video card
[11:10] <KeithWeisshar> any of the gtx 500 series
[11:11] <KeithWeisshar> i have the dvd version
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> dvd is same as cd.
[11:11] <Jake232> Dr_Willis: works perfect when I turn off ufw
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> uses the noevau drivers by default
[11:11] <KeithWeisshar> what card does the noveau driver support
[11:12] <susundberg> !noveau
[11:12] <susundberg> :/
[11:12] <KeithWeisshar> i have gtx 570 hd
[11:12] <MonkeyDust> !nouveau
[11:12] <KeithWeisshar> noveau doesn't work on my gtx 570 hd
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> install the nvidia drivers from the repos
[11:13] <hellyeah> hey
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> noveau seema best with cards that have been out a while
[11:14] <hellyeah> is it possible to make "memtest" in livesystem
[11:15] <fidel> hellyeah: the ubuntu install cd should come with a memtest option which you should be able to select during startup
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> grub2 i thought had memtest on it here. theres an option in /etc/default/grub to add/hide it
[11:15] <fidel> hellyeah: so yeah - should work in general - as the official memtest iso is some kind of live-system as well
[11:16] <hellyeah> root@ubuntu:~# memtest86
[11:16] <hellyeah> memtest86: command not found
[11:16] <fidel> hellyeah: so your question is: is memtest preinstalled?
[11:16] <hellyeah> yeah
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> memtest will be on the grub menu...
[11:17] <hellyeah> memtest brings with live system or nıt?
[11:17] <hellyeah> yeah but i am on the live system
[11:17] <hellyeah> i have hardwares problem
[11:17] <hellyeah> and i need to check on live system
[11:17] <hellyeah> my hdd is broken
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> boot live cd, select memtest...
[11:17] <hellyeah> hmm
[11:18] <hellyeah> can i do within live system
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> live meaning?
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> a normal install has a memtest option in grub i belive
[11:20] <hellyeah> i opened ubuntu with cd i guess its called live system
[11:20] <fidel> hellyeah: what is your native language?
[11:20] <Dr_Willis> opened with cd makes no senced to me
[11:20] <fidel> Dr_Willis: i guess its a language issue in the first step ;)
[11:21] <hellyeah> Turkish
[11:21] <hellyeah> okey
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> no hablo.. ;)
[11:21] <hellyeah> i boot my computer with cd
[11:21] <hellyeah> and select try ubuntu without installing
[11:21] <fidel> !tr > hellyeah
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> select memtest... befor it asks to try/install
[11:21] <fidel> hellyeah: consider asking in the turkish support as well - might be easier for you.
[11:22] <hellyeah> sometimes this channel even dotn listen anyway

[11:23] <qwebirc7597> hello
[11:23] <LolcustBackup> Hello community!
[11:23] <LolcustBackup> Need a little advice on SSH tunnels
[11:23] <trijntje_> hi there qwebirc7597
[11:24] <qwebirc7597> hi trijntje
[11:24] <lordievader> Hello qwebirc7597, LolcustBackup.
[11:24] <lordievader> LolcustBackup: What do you want to know?
[11:25] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[11:25] <qwebirc7597> how to install Moonlight via Chrome Web Store
[11:25] <tim-ct> hi all
[11:25] <LolcustBackup> So I have two boxes. One (WS) runs a mini web server on 2727 and SSH on 22. The other is an "open to all winds" VPS.
[11:25] <LolcustBackup> My plan: ssh -L 2727:WS-IP:2727 username@WS
[11:25] <tim-ct> what is the latest mysql and php versions on 12.04
[11:26] <LolcustBackup> question: will I be able to allow 2727 only from localhost on the WS
[11:26] <LolcustBackup> or will I still need to expose 2727 to "the world"
[11:26] <LolcustBackup> I'd very much rather have only 22 port exposed on the WS
[11:27] <qwebirc7597> @trijntje hi trijntje
[11:27] <lordievader> LolcustBackup: If you have the time watch this: http://hak5.org/episodes/hak5-1112

[12:17] <MonkeyDust> krak  better ask in #chromium, then
[12:17] <krak> MonkeyDust:  fine
[12:18] <samfromat> krak: check if the website provides binaries for linux(should be tar.bz/tar.gz like file) available or not. if yes then download it.

[12:42] <jhourani> i like notepad++ for C
[12:42] <zazzle> I installed eclipse today but can't build a C project
[12:43] <theghost> how do you check privaate messages
[12:43] <ThinkT510> theghost: what irc client are you using?
[12:43] <theghost> xchat irc
[12:43] <jhourani> zazzle you have to install a C/C++ compiler i think. Eclispe doesnt come with one out of the box
[12:43] <ThinkT510> theghost: look to your left, the nick in red
[12:44] <theghost> oh i see thanks
[12:44] <zazzle> in the project slot I can only find "general" and "cvs"
[12:44] <jhourani> zazzle check this out http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/moreinfo/c.php
[12:44] <samfromat> zazzie: eclipse is only for java. find ide for c/c++.
[12:44] <jhourani> you can use it for C/C++...just need to configure it
[12:45] <jhourani> there is a different distro...Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers
[12:46] <Pici> !compile
[12:48] <theghost> what would would be the diffrence in using landscape or setting the service up yourself manualy
[12:48] <theghost> without software
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> theghost  why don't you start from the beginning -- what brings you here?
[12:49] <quick-> hi can u please tell me how to make the windows the default selected  os in grub
[12:49] <cfhowlett> !grub|quick-:
[12:50] <llutz_> quick-: sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober && sudo update-grub
[12:51] <livingdaylight> I'm looking for the "System Monitor" app in in previous gnome editions, in synaptic, but don't readily find it by that name. Anyone, know what I'm looking for?
[12:51] <theghost> I am trying to set up a service to manage all the computers like windows active directory but i want to do it with ubuntu you suggested lanscape but you also gave me a website that shows how you can set it up yourself and i was wondering what the diffrence would be if you set it up by landscape or the website you suggested
[12:51] <samfromat> hey, does anyone tried this - two wireless connections on same pc?
[12:51] <livingdaylight> is it "gnome-system-monitor" ?
[12:51] <codezp> samformat it should work but not to same access point
[12:52] <samfromat> codezp: two service providers?
[12:53] <livingdaylight> yup, got it, thank you.
[12:53] <MonkeyDust> theghost  are they ubuntu or windows computers?
[12:53] <qdb> ifup eth0 do not help, etc init d networking restart also. i can send ssylog..
[12:54] <Jezzz> < -- noob:    my windows equivalent of 'explorer.exe' isn't working.  My app launcher is sort of frozen/gone.  How do I restart it?
[12:54] <MonkeyDust> Jezzz  in wine?
[12:55] <theghost> ubuntu
[12:55] <Jezzz> ^
[12:55] <Jezzz> 12.04
[12:55] <qdb> ah..
[12:55] <MonkeyDust> theghost  then try landscape, it's for ubuntu machines
[12:56] <Jezzz> is it called Unity?
[12:56] <qdb> i thought i found.. should set to auto dhcp. but no. indeed i need manual, with ips
[12:56] <theghost> ok i will but whats the diffrence between setting up via landscape ir setting up via terminal or something like that
[12:56] <Jezzz> i did compiz --replace, which seemed to restart something, but didn't get my launcher bar back
[12:56] <MonkeyDust> theghost  landscape is a gui, the terlinal is cli
[12:57] <MonkeyDust> terminal*
[12:57] <MonkeyDust> theghost  how familiar are you with ubuntu?
[12:57] <theghost> ok thanks so you saying landscape makes it easier to manage
[12:57] <theghost> i know quite a bit
[12:58] <Jezzz> i restarted gnome also and it's still gone
[13:03] <qdb> even lan leds do not light
[13:04]  * Jezzz just reboots :/
[13:05] <samfromat> anybody knows about configuring two wireless connections on same pc?
[13:07] <qdb> i disabled network boot today, i ll try to enable it back
[13:08] <quick-> hey can you please tell me how to change the the time required  to select the in the grub menu
[13:08] <jrib> !grub | quick-
[13:08] <jrib> quick-: you'll want to change the GRUB_TIMEOUT option
[13:09] <llutz_> quick-: change GRUB_TIMEOUT=10   in /etc/default/grub
[13:09] <dhez> hello
[13:09] <cfhowlett> dhez: greetings
[13:10] <dhez> Thanks, its been a long time since ive used irc :-)
[13:10] <quick-> jrib i tried it its already 10
[13:10] <nitrohax> morning
[13:11] <jrib> quick-: tried what exactly?
[13:11] <qdb> indeed it makes lan leds light, but how can i enable it without network boot
[13:11] <x010100x> hello
[13:11] <quick-> jrib:  changed the GRUB_TIMEOUT t0 10 in /etc/default/grub
[13:11] <jrib> quick-: and did you run « sudo update-grub » after changing it?
[13:12] <x010100x> someone had use nagios in ubunutu?
[13:12] <quick-> jrib : yes i did .
[13:12] <jrib> quick-: and what behavior does grub display?
[13:12] <dhez>  I had a quick question: ive just installed ubuntu 12.04, changed the desktop to gnome (it appeals to me more than unity) and installed the basic things. I wanted to ask what steps i should take to learn the ins and outs of the OS better(ubuntu and/or linux in general? Any recommendations?
[13:12] <x010100x> jrib: can you help me
[13:13] <jrib> x010100x: start by asking your real question (to the channel)
[13:13] <Guest99485> ciao, ho un problema col pc dopo aver cancella to dei file libgeoip. qualcuno ha tempo di aiutarmi?
[13:13] <jrib> !it | Guest99485
[13:13] <quick-> jrib: Would you please tell me  what does you exactly mean by behaviour ?
[13:13] <x010100x> jrib: you see I have the cfg file but it shows errors after any file change
[13:13] <jrib> quick-: what does grub do?  Does it still wait?  Is the countdown different than 10?  How long is it?
[13:14] <x010100x> jrib: for example if I change a word the nagios shows this error: Running configuration check... CONFIG ERROR!  Restart aborted.  Check your Nagios configuration.
[13:14] <quick-> jrib:  The countdown is still the same . i guess it s0 . It shows the screen like a spalsh and then boots into ubuntu
[13:14] <x010100x> jrib: is weird that after just a word changed everything mess up >_<
[13:15] <x010100x> permissions are 777 to files and dirs
[13:15] <jrib> x010100x: I don't know anything about nagios.  You should ask the channel in general (not address me).  I suggest you: 1) post the configuration file before and after your changes, 2) state whether the error is displayed before you make your changes, 3) pastebin the entire error in full
[13:15] <qdb> yukon pxe v 6 55 1 3 (20080222) (c) marvell
[13:15] <jrib> quick-: the same as what
[13:15] <x010100x> ok got it+
[13:15] <quick-> the same is before 0 .
[13:16] <nitrohax> jrib> i'm thinking Quick wants the time out of the grub to be longer
[13:16] <qdb> bios can enable lan
[13:16] <jrib> quick-: are you sure you don't have another copy of grub?  Maybe on a different linux install?
[13:16] <qdb> if it is high in boot order
[13:16] <qdb> but user need to press a key  to cancel lan boot with that option
[13:17] <nitrohax> qdb> that's a network boot option in the bios.
[13:17] <quick-> jrib:  i just only ubuntu installed . How shoudl i check if i have a different copy of the grub installed ?
[13:17] <qdb> that has not helped , i do not have connection in network manager menu
[13:18] <jrib> quick-: do you have multiple installs of ubuntu maybe?
[13:18] <nitrohax> qdb> are you saying that you don't have an internet connection with ubuntu?
[13:18] <qdb> "ip link set dev eth0 up" - this enabled eth0!
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> quick-  firstt get familiar with ubutu, then try messing with grub
[13:18] <quick-> no i dnt have multiple installs of ubuntu , i just ubuntu and windows 7 installed
[13:18] <qdb> will it be saved?
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu*
[13:19] <qdb> nitrohax, yes
[13:19] <quick-> jrib:  I just have ubuntu and windows 7 installed
[13:19] <qdb> it worked yesterday
[13:19] <jrib> quick-: do you get any output when you run « sudo update-grub »?  Pastebin your /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[13:19] <alapmokus> hy all
[13:20] <nitrohax> qdb> are you using a wired or a wireless connection?
[13:20] <qdb> nitrohax, wired
[13:20] <quick-> alapmokus:  hey :)
[13:21] <qdb> lshw class network shows just a word.. pci sysfs, and i need to press ctrl c
[13:21] <qdb> 2 words )
[13:22] <qdb> ah no...
[13:22] <qdb> after several seconds answer appeared
[13:24] <BluesKaj> qdb,  rub, eth0=dhcp , then ,sudo ifconfig eth0 up , then sudo dhclient eth0
[13:24] <nitrohax> qdb> is this an error before Ubuntu even starts
[13:24] <BluesKaj> rub=run
[13:25] <kiddorails> Hey. Is AMD Radeon HD 7xxxM series supported by Ubuntu yet?
[13:26] <kiddorails> I was looking forward to buy HP Envy 6 ultrabook which features 2 GB of HD 7670M GPU.
[13:26] <BluesKaj> kiddorails, it should be , most radeons are
[13:26] <kiddorails> I'm not sure if 12.04 will support it.
[13:26] <quick-> jrib:  the output of update-grub and /etc/default/grub is at http://pastebin.com/NBvDYVwD
[13:26] <qdb> nitrohax, yes
[13:26] <kiddorails> BluesKaj: This range of GPU is new.
[13:26] <jrib> quick-: I need to see /boot/grub/grub.cfg, not /etc/default/grub
[13:27] <qdb> sudo dhclient eth0     do not respond nor stop
[13:27] <qdb> i have tried to delete config files in home folder , did not help
[13:27] <qdb> has not helped
[13:27] <nitrohax> qdb> you have network boot enabled in the bios. this is trying to do a network boot. you will have to go into the bios and disable it or move it to the bottom of the boot order.
[13:28] <nitrohax> qdb> this shouldn't affect the connection in ubuntu
[13:28] <qdb> nitrohax, but then even lan leds do not light
[13:28] <BluesKaj> qdb, does not stop .. in what manner ?
[13:28] <qdb> BluesKaj, i need to press ctrl c
[13:29] <nitrohax> qdb> do you have any lights on the lan card of your computer, and on the router/switch also?
[13:29] <BluesKaj> qdb, have you run ifconfig , if not do so then pastebin the output
[13:29] <qdb> nitrohax, now yes
[13:29] <nitrohax> qdb> on both things correct?
[13:29] <danpsy> Why can't I append the unallocated space into my /dev/sda4 partition?  http://i.imgur.com/KVWOL.png
[13:30] <qdb> BluesKaj, i need to copy through usb flash drive. ifconfig now shows eth0
[13:30] <theadmin> danpsy: Because /dev/sda4 is not directly near the unallocated space.
[13:30] <quick-> jrib:  here you go http://pastebin.com/bj0UwmDm
[13:30] <MonkeyDust> danpsy  swap is in the way
[13:30] <qdb> seems partial updaet made this error
[13:31] <theadmin> danpsy: Get rid of swap for a while. Then resize /dev/sda4 and recreate swap.
[13:31] <nitrohax> qdb> have you tried in terminal $ sudo dhclient
[13:32] <qdb> nitrohax, it says nothing
[13:32] <theadmin> nitrohax: That's a wrong syntax, you need an interface there ("sudo dhclient eth0")
[13:32] <BluesKaj> danpsy, too many primary partitions , you're allowed only 4 , if you feel adventurous you could delete the Windows reserved / recovery , then you could use the unallocated one as ext4 for linux
[13:34] <danpsy> theadmin, MonkeyDust, BluesKaj: Thanks!
[13:34] <jrib> quick-: so does grub just wait indefinitely or does grub not wait at all at the moment?  You said before it was "0", but I'm not sure what you meant
[13:34] <quick-> jrib:  i mean it doesn't wait at all .
[13:35] <obryan> I am curious, is there a way to make a particular app specifically use a particular network device?  I want vnc to use my wifi but I want pan to use eth0
[13:35] <obryan> would I have to set up some sort of firewall or ipchain rule?
[13:36] <jrib> quick-: well /boot/grub/grub.cfg gets updated correctly.  If you don't have a different grub running, then I don't know
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> danpsy  create an extended partition, inside it, you can make more partitions
[13:37] <quick-> jrib : would you please tell me how do i check if there a different grub running ?
[13:38] <jrib> quick-: well kludgy way: edit the name of one of the entries to something like "Ubuntu, with Linux 3.2.0-27-generic-pae FOOBAR" and see if your menu shows it
[13:38] <llutz_> with a menu not shown at all? ^^ ;)
[13:39] <quick-> jrib:  where do i edit it ?
[13:39] <Karen> can't see bios to get boot from cd or usb; laptop monitor dark after dual-monitor setup laptop-builtin/HDMI; help?
[13:39] <jrib> quick-: does your menu not show at all?
[13:40] <quick-> jrib : its comes and goes in a spash . i dnt even get a time to press a key so that i can stop the count down time
[13:42] <llutz_> quick-: (jrib) if you really have only ubuntu+win7: "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"  should make sure that you are using the correct grub
[13:44] <FernandoCueva> I have some weird issue
[13:44] <mooser> hi
[13:44] <quick-> llutz :  but will that effect the current install of the current grub ?
[13:44] <llutz_> quick-: it'll just rewrite grub into MBR
[13:45] <superfabbb> hello
[13:45] <superfabbb> how can i install a library if it  is not included in my repositories?
[13:45] <quick-> llutz :  will it effect the system , i mean the current config i want the default config which ubuntu gives by default
[13:46] <llutz_> quick-: no
[13:46] <natex> Is Ubuntu One extremely slow to sync for anyone else right now?
[13:47] <FernandoCueva> I set sudo passwd and assigned a password but I was told not to do that I want to know why and how to revert it
[13:47] <quick-> llutz : Are you sure that the grub is installed on the /dev/sda . just confirming ? :)
[13:48] <llutz_> quick-: YOU should be sure about that, you installed the system. it would be system-default for ubuntu-installs
[13:48] <jrib> FernandoCueva: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Re-disabling_your_root_account
[13:48] <theadmin> FernandoCueva: Setting the root password gives you much less ways to manage your permissions and is a security flow.
[13:48] <mooser> Trying to uninstall a game (which comes default with ubuntu) called "Penguin Freecell" I do type sudo apt-get remove Penguin Freecell but it gives me that: E: Invalid operation Penguin Freecell
[13:48] <theadmin> s/flow/flaw/
[13:48] <qdb> i have static inet now
[13:48] <qdb> by cmdline edits
[13:48] <theadmin> mooser: That's unlikely a valid package name. Package names NEVER have spaces. They also are always fully lowercase. Try "sudo apt-get purge penguin-freecell"
[13:49] <quick-> llutz :  i didnt install the system :)
[13:49] <quick-> I guess its a default install .
[13:50] <quick-> jrib: Thanks a lot for the help :)
[13:51] <quick-> jrib:  llutz Would you please tell me how do i make the windows boot in the grub as the default one .
[13:51] <mooser> theadmin, resul of: sudo apt-get purge penguin-freecell is > E: Unable to locate package penguin-freecell
[13:51] <llutz_> quick-: i did
[13:51] <theadmin> mooser: Bah. Well. I don't know the package name. Try looking in the Software Center to remove it.
[13:51] <llutz_> quick-: sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober && sudo update-grub
[13:52] <llutz_> quick-: that needs DEFAULT=0 in /etc/default/grub
[13:52] <mooser> theadmin its because of the wrong package name?
[13:52] <mooser> what is different beetween remove and purge ?
[13:53] <theadmin> mooser: "purge" removes configuration stuff as well, other than that no difference
[13:53] <llutz_> quick-: but if you cannot access grub-menu, you won't be able to boot into ubuntu then
[13:54] <theadmin> llutz_: One can always access the grub menu, even with timeout=0, one can simply hold left shift down on the "Loading GRUB..." screen (which lasts for like 3 seconds even on the very fast modern machines)
[13:54] <llutz_> theadmin: seems to be untrue in his special case
[13:55] <theadmin> llutz_: Oh, weird.
[13:55] <quick-> llutz :  i know that but i dnt have 09_os-prober
[13:55] <kiddorails> Is wifi bcmwl 4365 unsupported on 12.04 ?
[13:55] <mooser> theadmin,  i see
[13:55] <llutz_> quick-: correct, thats why you should rename the 30_os-prober
[13:56] <theadmin> kiddorails: most broadcom devices are supported either with the kernel drivers or the closed-source wl
[13:57] <llutz_> quick-: if you just don't want to use ubuntu and boot windows, better to use fixmbr/fixboot from windows
[13:58] <stephanie88> Hello guys i have found fantastic blowjobs!  http://www.gallery-dump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=297292
[13:58] <quick-> quick-:  if i use the fix/fixboot the grub will be replaced by the windows mbr . Right ?
[13:59] <llutz_> yes
[13:59] <quick-> llutz:  and then i can format the ubuntu partition from the wind0ws ?
[14:00] <llutz_> yes
[14:01] <darkelda> hi everybody
[14:01] <llutz_> quick-: and support ends at this point
[14:01] <quick-> llutz : one last question
[14:01] <darkelda> I'm looking for a todo list manager with gantt view
[14:01] <darkelda> any idea ?
[14:02] <quick-> llutz : Thanks a lot :)
[14:02] <quick-> where do i study all these things you know (if u dnt mind , i know its off-topic ) :)
[14:03] <Froward> hello sexy linux people!
[14:03] <llutz_> quick-: learning by doing, reading "the internet" and lots of dcoumentation
[14:03] <Froward> I am looking for an alternative to openoffice for my boss's ubuntu PC
[14:04] <Froward> it refuses to print in greyscale, only color! I have determined it is openoffice's fault, not the printer.
[14:04] <quick-> llutz : i ll do it
[14:04] <quick->  fixmbr cmd is there in windows
[14:04] <Froward> any suggestions?
[14:04] <quick-> llutz : fixmbr isnt there in windows :(
[14:05] <llutz_> Froward: tried libreoffice? same issue?
[14:05] <Froward> I haven't! I will install it.
[14:05] <AdvoWork> just done something but don't know what. in a cli, i was already postgres user ,but i've then done su postgres and it says Added user postgres. can I delete that somehow without removing my main user?
[14:06] <llutz_> quick-: /join ##windows
[14:08] <quick-> llutz : Thanks a lot again . I really appreciate the effort :)
[14:09] <B100d1u5t> hola
[14:10] <B100d1u5t> what is the proper way to load this iso file onto a flash drive
[14:10] <B100d1u5t> just xfer the file or do i need to embed the image in some way
[14:11] <DJones> B100d1u5t: What are you trying to do? Create a startup usb stick with Ubuntu on it?
[14:11] <B100d1u5t> DJones just trying to run the setup
[14:12] <B100d1u5t> thought it said that i had to burn the iso image to a dvd or flash drive
[14:12] <histo> !usb | B100d1u5t
[14:12] <B100d1u5t> flash drive would be more conveineint
[14:12] <W4sp> Froward: Did you see Taskjuggler, GanttProject (Java), OpenProj (similar to Microsoft Project), Koffice KPlato?
[14:12] <Froward> W4sp: no, thanks! I will look into these..
[14:12] <B100d1u5t> so that is still  a full install?
[14:13] <Froward> installing libreoffice apparently overrides openoffice. I'd like to have as many options as possible, side by side.
[14:14] <zAo^> is there a PPA for the latest radeon drivers? XorgEdgers doesn´t provide xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[14:14] <histo> B100d1u5t: it's like a full install but it uses the casper filesystem for persistence
[14:14] <Froward> W4sp: that stuff looks like time management software.. I need to be able to do basic desktop publishing. Like openoffice, but so it prints without screwing up.
[14:14] <Froward> Even running notepad in WINE is more reliable.
[14:15] <jagosix> does libre office screw it also ?
[14:15] <llutz_> Froward: looked at scribus?
[14:15] <jagosix> I havent used open office in a while
[14:16] <jagosix> libre office is so much better
[14:16] <W4sp> Froward: I used the wrong nickname. It wasn't meant for you
[14:16] <jagosix> well use office 2010
[14:17] <jagosix> i also use that via crossover office
[14:18] <Froward> llutz: thanks :D
[14:19] <jerry_KM> hello
[14:19] <W4sp> darkelda: Did you see Taskjuggler, GanttProject (Java), OpenProj (similar to Microsoft Project), Koffice KPlato?
[14:20] <jerry_KM> I am new here.
 Even running notepad in WINE is more reliable.
[14:20] <Calinou> notepad is terrible
[14:20] <jerry_KM> nice to meet you
[14:20] <Calinou> hi jerry_KM, welcome
[14:20] <Froward> Calinou: yeah but at least it prints in black and white instead of color
[14:20] <Calinou> you can set libreoffice's printing properties to print in black in white..
[14:20] <jerry_KM> Hi, Calinou
[14:20] <Calinou> you're doing it wrong
[14:20] <Froward> I set every possible OO setting to print in black and white.. didn't work
[14:20] <Froward> I'll install libreoffice when I find out the root password.
[14:21] <histo> Froward: set the printer to be black and white in cups
[14:21] <Froward> I don't know how to do that, it didn't come up in my google search.
[14:21] <Froward> link?
[14:22] <end_guy> I'm trying to get two finger scroll working on my laptop but Synaptics TouchPad driver doesn't seem to work when I try to enable the two finger scroll option.
[14:23] <end_guy> How can I make sure Synaptics TouchPad driver is running?
[14:25] <llutz_> end_guy: grep -i synap /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep II
[14:26] <end_guy> llutz_: nothing returned
[14:27] <llutz_> end_guy: it "uppercase i" twice at the end. try without the second grep
[14:29] <end_guy> llutz_: how about this :-) http://pastebin.com/f8DAnXet
[14:29] <mejo> hey
[14:30] <llutz_> end_guy: well, noise. no synaptics at all it seems
[14:30] <mejo> which graphics chip do you suggest for dual-head unity 3d with high resolution? I would prefer open source drivers.
[14:31] <end_guy> llutz_: it's strange that it can recognize the touchpad gesture for zooming in and out but not two finger scroll
[14:31] <mejo> currently I use an old onboard AMD card with ati rs690 [radeon x1200] chip.
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> nvidia,intel,ati, others.... in that order
[14:32] <mejo> dual-head support in unity3d works only with very low resolution
[14:32] <llutz_> end_guy: i cannot help you with that, i don't use those features
[14:32] <mejo> it advices me to switch to unity2d. and there the performance is really bad
[14:32] <end_guy> Can anyone help me in getting my two finger scroll working on my touchpad?
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> avoid 'just came out' video card/chipsets.. they may not have driver support yet
[14:33] <mejo> Dr_Willis: is the dual-head support for recent nvidia chips good in open source neauvou driver?
[14:33] <Dr_Willis> mejo: nvidia drivers + twinview feature work better then noevau does
[14:33] <mejo> I'd like to avoid using proprietary drivers
[14:33] <daemon> hello all how do I make it so resolv.conf will not be automatically generated
[14:34] <Dr_Willis> i can only clonw, nd get limited res with noevau and my year old nvidia card. and clone only... but i am testing 12.10 here
[14:34] <end_guy> daemon: you need to get rid of network-manager?
[14:34] <daemon> end_guy, I dont think its installed
[14:35] <end_guy> daemon: Are you trying to set static IP and custom nameservers?
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> mejo:  i dont see any gain by avoiding the propity drivers
[14:35] <llutz_> daemon: set your dns either in the networkmanager-connections or in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/*
[14:35] <mejo> Dr_Willis: sounds to me like I will not take nvidia ;)
[14:35] <daemon> end_guy, yes
[14:35] <daemon> Package network-manager is not installed though
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> mejo: ati is worse.. so that leaves intel..
[14:35] <llutz_> daemon: use "nameservers a.b.c.d e.f.g.h" in /etc/network/interfaces
[14:36] <end_guy> daemon: http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/319
[14:36] <daemon> llutz, ah than kyou
[14:36] <mejo> Dr_Willis: thanks, I'll do some research regarding intel dual-head support
[14:36] <llutz_> daemon: use "dns-nameservers a.b.c.d e.f.g.h" in /etc/network/interfaces
[14:36] <docBrown_> i have three nameserver entries in my resolv.conf file; one was there already and two i added using /resolv.conf.d/tail ... how can i remove the first one that was there to begin with?
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> mejo: nvidia works better for dualhead.. moar power/features
[14:37] <daemon> llutz, works perfectly; thank you :), thank you also end_guy
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> intel i guess is ok for most peoples.
[14:38] <frxstrem> are there any programs I could use to get the speed at which data is read from a pipe (e.g., written to stdout from another program)
[14:41] <dv310p3r> Need Help. My Ubuntu 12.04 was working fine in Unity 3D mode. Now all of a sudden it says it's in 2D mode only.
[14:41] <iroquois> hi,i'm running ubuntu 10.04 and like things the way they are.How long past the end of support date could i keep running it?
[14:42] <SliTaz> oh dear dv310p3r
[14:42] <SliTaz> dv310p3r do a full clean reinstall
[14:42] <SliTaz> dv310p3r and baby it for the second time :)
[14:42] <dv310p3r> SliTaz, thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
[14:43] <Dr_Willis> iroquois: as long as you can live without security updates...
[14:43] <dv310p3r> Anyone else have any productive feedback, or flaming only?
[14:43] <iroquois> ty dr willis
[14:43] <Dr_Willis> dv310p3r: what video driver/card
[14:44] <compdoc> dv310p3r, did you actiate the propritory videos drivers?
[14:44] <iroquois> sure hate it when they change things that are working just fine
[14:44] <Pumpkin-> Froward: from memory a tool called pv can do that. I just checked and ubuntu has a package for it.
[14:44] <Dr_Willis> irdxafk: gnome2 was killed by the gnome devs.. it was showing its age
[14:45] <dv310p3r> Dr_Willis, Intel HD Graphics 4000
[14:45] <dv310p3r> compdoc, Intel HD Graphics 4000
[14:45] <dv310p3r> compdoc, Dr_Willis, everything had been working just fine. After a reboot, bamn!
[14:46] <Froward> you guys are super helpful.
[14:46] <Dr_Willis> dv310p3r: try an older kernel from the grub menus as a test?  i dont do much with intel
[14:46] <dv310p3r> Dr_Willis,  the grub menu isn't showing me any older Kernels.
[14:46] <Dr_Willis> Froward: we try our best
[14:46] <Dr_Willis> dv310p3r: should be an older kernels... item
[14:47] <dv310p3r> Dr_Willis, I'll check it out. Thanks.
[14:47] <tripolar> hi
[14:47] <tripolar> how can i deactivate plymouth in ubuntu?
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> !plymouth
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> theres a text plymouth theme that basically turns it off. or use the 'text' boot option
[14:48] <Pumpkin-> I'm installing Ubuntu on a temporary desktop for some testing, and I need to buy a second NIC for that testing. When I installed, it identified the machine as a Compaq-MODELNUMBER (because that was the default hostname for the machine). Now I have installed, is there any way I can get it to tell me what that model number is (to save me a long walk to find out - and so I can buy the correct NIC - I suspect I need a low profile one).
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> or try the 'nosplash' kernel option
[14:48] <dv310p3r> Dr_Willis, ok, just restart into .27 kernel, same thing.
[14:50] <Dr_Willis> dv310p3r: id have to suggest checking the forums an d  askubuntu.com  i rarely touch intel video.
[14:50] <dv310p3r> thanks
[14:50] <dv310p3r> Dr_Willis, thanks, I'll do hat.
[14:51] <nitrohax> interesting thing i just learned. you can turn your swapdrive on/off.
[14:51] <llutz_> nitrohax: sudo swapon/swapoff
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> youcan  have several swap partitions.
[14:52] <nitrohax> llutz> it wasn't showing a swap drive so i went into gparted and saw the option "swapon" now things run better.
[14:53] <Dr_Willis> nitrohax: check fstab for a swap line
[14:54] <nitrohax> Dr_Willis> it's there. all good now. I'm not sure why it was even turned off or when. one of those thinsg
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> bbl
[14:56] <keliori> hi all
[14:57] <langhun> hi
[14:58] <keliori> hello everyone, i just installed ubuntu in virtualbox, i like it very much but now i have problem how to connect to pptp vpn server? my host is windows xp sp3
[14:59] <DonD> is there a command that let me check if my server can run a 64 bit version ?
[14:59] <llutz_> DonD: grep " lm " /proc/cpuinfo
[14:59] <jenia> hello everyone
[14:59] <jenia> i removed myself from the sudo group
[14:59] <jenia> (by accident)
[14:59] <jenia> so can i reset that setting?
[15:00] <nitrohax> yeah, that fixed the lagging with more then one vbox open
[15:00] <llutz_> DonD: if it shows the "flags" line, its 64bit capable
[15:01] <jrib> jenia: reboot into recover mode and issue the command: adduser YOUR_USERNAME_HERE sudo
[15:01] <mzuverink> what is the status of classic gnome in the current release? Has it recieved more attention than in prior releases since the advent of Unity?
[15:01] <jenia> thanks
[15:01] <jagosix> hello peopl
[15:01] <jagosix> people
[15:01] <MonkeyDust> mzuverink  i use classic as we speak, works fine
[15:03] <jagosix> I use crossover Office 11.2.0 and was wondering, does anyone here use it? If so I need some input and help.
[15:03] <phildaian> Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had experience doing 2x1440p or 3x1440p monitors in Ubuntu.  I'm looking at a 6870 for this (all productivity, non-gaming), but I'm not sure if the Linux drivers on current Ubuntu are capable of doing dual or triple 1440p, and I'm open to a different card
[15:03] <mzuverink> MonkeyDust, in previous releases it seems to have been incomplete, as in they did put much attention to classic.  Does it seem that they put the proper amount of attention to in now?
[15:04] <docBrown_> i have three nameserver entries in my resolv.conf file; one was there already and two i added using /resolv.conf.d/tail ... how can i remove the first one that was there to begin with?
[15:04] <MonkeyDust> mzuverink  meaning? why do you ask? what do you expect from classic?
[15:04] <compdoc> docBrown_, where does it come from? /resolv.conf.d/body?
[15:05] <compdoc> I would just delete it from resolv.conf
[15:05] <docBrown_> compdoc: i dont see it in any of the files in /resolv.conf.d/
[15:05] <docBrown_> compdoc: ok ill try that
[15:06] <compdoc> docBrown_, there are several files in these distros like Ubuntu that once you edit it, the OS leaves it alone. Not all config files are that way, but several are
[15:06] <compdoc> gtg - good luck
[15:06] <docBrown_> compdoc: not the case.. it was re-added in after i did an update
[15:06] <docBrown_> dang
[15:07] <mzuverink> MonkeyDust, it seemed if I remember correctly that things like Epiphany was not compiled with the sys try icon, and that there were just peices missing from the ubuntu-desktop package, I cannot remember much more.  I will just need to download and install to check for myself.  I appreciate your quick response. I am not a fam of the whole shell game, it is a shame in my opinion that linux as a whole, in terms of desktop distibutio
[15:07] <mzuverink> ns are all going the way of the shell
[15:08] <nitrohax> how do you get to the main terminal page again?
[15:08] <kelvinella> hi how do you share an external drive in ubuntu with different user?
[15:08] <phildaian> Also, I'd like to be able to mount a few hard drives in RAID (with redundancy, speed is not critical) and share the storage array with networked Mac, Windows, and Linux computers... can anyone point me in the direction of a tool/something to google for that
[15:08] <Pumpkin-> any idea why "cu -l ttyS0" gives me "Permission Denied", even if run with sudo (but chmod'ing /dev/ttyS0 to 777 fixes it) ?.
[15:08] <tripolar> how can i disable plymouth? text as kernel boot option doesnt seem to work
[15:08] <MonkeyDust> mzuverink  yeah, try it and decide for yourself, if you find bugs or have ideas, use launchpad or !brainstorm
[15:09] <mzuverink> MonkeyDust, Thanks, I appreciate the response, downloading now...
[15:09] <kelvinella> lets say my brother is using the computer with user name bro and i ssh into it with user me.  when i do ls-l /media/USB shows "bro" as permission and i cant access it
[15:10] <kelvinella> how do i work around with this?
[15:10] <GirlyGirl> kelvinella: Use nautilus to set the folder permission and add the second user to it
[15:10] <truexfan81> what kind of bot is ubottu?
[15:11] <kelvinella> GirlyGirl, how?
[15:11] <jrib> ubottu: tell truexfan81 about yourself
[15:11] <truexfan81> ty
[15:12] <GirlyGirl> kelvinella: Right click properties on the folder ... I'm not sure of the exact names of the settings as I use KDE but it should be something like that
[15:12] <kelvinella> GirlyGirl, can i do that via my terminal?
[15:12] <kelvinella> lets say i am not home
[15:12] <truexfan81> jrib: probelm is i can't visit any of the links it provides due to the site being moved
[15:13] <kelvinella> i ssh into the box from the street
[15:14] <afaffa> how do i make windows my default on the GRub
[15:14] <CharlieSu> Hi all.  I have a SFTP server that constantly gets locked up because the 'console-kit-daemon' process is taking a lot of CPU usage..  Any ideas why?
[15:15] <jrib> truexfan81: what do you mean?
[15:15] <truexfan81> nevermind, firefox being a pain
[15:16] <truexfan81> i'm on the site now
[15:17] <truexfan81> oh its a supybot? i have one of those
[15:17] <jenia> hello everyone
[15:17] <jenia> i removed myself from the sudo list
[15:17] <jenia> now i tried to reboot in recovery mode
[15:17] <jenia> damn i have to leave for 5 min
[15:17] <jenia> ill be right back
[15:18] <GirlyGirl> !language | jenia
[15:18] <truexfan81> !version
[15:18] <truexfan81> heh
[15:18] <truexfan81> was trying to find out the bot version lol that command works on mine
[15:19] <cubix`> The VERSION request on truexfan81 has timed out
[15:19] <bazhang> cubix`, what
[15:20] <Myrtti> foo bar bot version baz wibble
[15:20] <bazhang> !version > cubix`
[15:21] <cubix`> The VERSION request on > has timed out
[15:21] <jrib> sigh
[15:21] <bazhang> truexfan81, cubix` is yours?
[15:21] <truexfan81> nope
[15:21] <bazhang> ok
[15:21] <truexfan81> mine is named Jadzia
[15:21] <bazhang> hah
[15:21] <jenia> i didnt use any obscene words
[15:22] <jenia> i removed myself from the sudo list
[15:22] <jrib> cubix`: feel free to join #ubuntu-ops to discuss this, but talking bots are not allowed in #ubuntu.  Your ban will be removed, once you join #ubuntu-ops and discuss it
[15:23] <jenia> now when i go to recovery mode, theres a dialog that pops up
[15:23] <jenia> its called Removery Menu
[15:23] <jenia> and it says in it that filesystem state:read-only
[15:23] <GirlyGirl> jenia: Select something that says drop to root shell or something in that menu
[15:23] <GirlyGirl> jenia: Then follow this http://www.pendrivelinux.com/how-to-add-a-user-to-the-sudoers-list/
[15:23] <jenia> yes
[15:24] <GirlyGirl> jenia: But why did you delete yourself from the sudoers list?
[15:24] <jenia> by accident
[15:24] <jenia> ;)
[15:24] <roadfish> Is there some kind of web-api to Ubuntu packages. For example, to issue a query to look up packages in a given category and get results in JSON format?
[15:24] <oolumpixs>  Hi, i am using  xfce and was fiddling with my login options and changed something in the login xserver settinsg, now all i get is a login screen with"no serving host found"
[15:24] <truexfan81> how does one accidently delete one's self from the sudoers list?
[15:24] <MonkeyDust> roadfish  there's packages.ubuntu.com
[15:24] <Pici> roadfish: the launchpad api can do something like that.
[15:25] <llutz_> truexfan81: usermod is an easy way, used a lot here :)
[15:25] <jrib> truexfan81: using usermod -G usually
[15:25] <in_DEEP_Crisis>  Hi, i am using linux mint 13 xfce and was fiddling with my login options and changed something in the login xserver settinsg, now all i get is a login screen with"no serving host found"
[15:25] <MonkeyDust> roadfish  or the non-supported website appnr.com
[15:25] <jenia> so yea. thats the problem. when i type visudo it tells me:
[15:25] <truexfan81> ah ok
[15:25] <jenia> visudo: /etc/sudoers: Read-only file system
[15:25] <bazhang> in_DEEP_Crisis, get mintsupport it's not supported here
[15:25] <Pici> !mintsupport | in_DEEP_Crisis
[15:25] <truexfan81> jrib: i've been using linux for a year, and have never used the usermod command
[15:26] <in_DEEP_Crisis> bazhang: yes i know but there isn't any one there helping (as yet) and this is my friends machine
[15:26] <GirlyGirl> jenia: When you drop to root shell, you get a message about how to mount with write support , do that
[15:26] <in_DEEP_Crisis> neither is there anyone at #xfce
[15:26] <bazhang> in_DEEP_Crisis, then be patient. it's not supported here.
[15:26] <ThinkT510> in_DEEP_Crisis: that doesn't mean that mint is supported here
[15:26] <in_DEEP_Crisis> bazhang: ok
[15:26] <Slendy> hello
[15:26] <in_DEEP_Crisis> ok got it , don't mind though :-)
[15:26] <Slendy> what is the point of xchat
[15:27] <Slendy> ?
[15:27] <roadfish> MonkeyDust/Pici: ok good stuff ... I guess I can google on something like "api json" at those websites. thanks.
[15:27] <bazhang> Slendy, its an irc client
[15:27] <Kvaks> Slendy: Hello.
[15:27] <GirlyGirl> jenia: Did you get it mounted?
[15:27] <ThinkT510> Slendy: it is an irc client
[15:27] <jenia> nope
[15:27] <Slendy> what does irc mean?
[15:27] <bazhang> Slendy, see #xchat
[15:27] <jenia> it doesnt say that
[15:27] <jrib> jenia: don't use visudo by the way, just add your user back to the sudo group
[15:27] <thiebaude> haha
[15:27] <Slendy> Whats an irc?
[15:27] <ThinkT510> Slendy: internet relay chat
[15:27] <Slendy> so
[15:27] <Slendy> What do you chat about?
[15:27] <bazhang> Slendy, easy on the enter key there
[15:27] <jenia> but let me check the net maybe ill be able to mount it
[15:27] <ThinkT510> Slendy: there are many channels, this one is a ubuntu support channel
[15:28] <jrib> Slendy: this channel is for ubuntu support.  If you want to talk about other things, join us in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:28] <Slendy> Gohh
[15:28] <bazhang> !chat | Slendy
[15:28] <Slendy> ohh i get it its for support :)
[15:28] <Slendy> Is there any way to get nvidia optimus ion 2 Graphics Drivers to work?
[15:29] <daemon> hey all how do I debug a program startup issue
[15:29] <GirlyGirl> daemon: Run it in a terminal
[15:29] <daemon> GirlyGirl, it works:
[15:29] <GirlyGirl> daemon: e.g type "firefox" in terminal
[15:30] <yajima> proton721
[15:30] <daemon> GirlyGirl, pgbouncer -u nobody -d /etc/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.ini
[15:30] <daemon> GirlyGirl, works perfectly
[15:30] <daemon> GirlyGirl, I set the same in /etc/default/pgbouncer and it does not work
[15:31] <GirlyGirl> daemon: then what do you want to debug, you didn't give the software name, problem details or anything
[15:31] <llutz_> daemon: use strace to find out if pgbouncer even reads /etc/default/...
[15:31] <daemon> GirlyGirl, I want to know why the init.d version does not work and the console does
[15:31] <daemon> llutz, according to its startup file it does
[15:33] <stephanie88> blowjobs for everyone! http://www.gallery-dump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=297292
[15:34] <pras> I still have the Linux kernel power regression problem with Ubuntu 12.04 running default kernel 3.2, I have been experiencing this since ubuntu 11.10 and my processor is intel i5 sandy bridge, i know this power regression is a common bug for Intel sandy bridge. Recently read a post in Phoronix that says it will be fixed in 3.3, was that really fixed?
[15:34] <roadfish> quit
[15:35] <daemon> llutz_, I had to init its startup file init.d/pgbouncer it was trying to su to the user 'postgres' which does not exist
[15:35] <daemon> edit*
[15:38] <jenia> okay it worked thank you very much
[15:38] <jenia> now i want to ask you something about groups and permission

[15:39] <quick-> !who | jenia
[15:39] <jenia> GirlyGirl, okay thanks
[15:39] <pras> I asked my query in common.. can someone help me out?
[15:40] <jenia> GirlyGirl, can you please tell me, how  do i change the group owning a folder
[15:40] <quick-> pras : EVerybody asks the query in common , if someone know s the answer they ll reply .
[15:40] <GirlyGirl> jenia: Its easier in GUI, with nautilus or whatever filemanager
[15:40] <llutz_> jenia: chgrp group folder
[15:40] <utu-san> jenia:  chown -R owner: <folder>
[15:40] <llutz_> utu-san: that will change the owner, not the group
[15:41] <jenia> GirlyGirl, i did sudo chown -R jenia:mediagroup ./My\ Book
[15:41] <jenia> GirlyGirl, and it returned: operation not permitted
[15:41] <utu-san> jenia: that shud do it
[15:41] <pras> quick-, thanks..  but my msg is getting lost.. i don't think so reposting it again and again is not fair.. so what can i do to bring attention back?
[15:41] <GirlyGirl> jenia: Try sudo chown -R jenia:mediagroup ./My\ Book
[15:41] <llutz_> jenia: on what filesystem is ./My\ Book?
[15:42] <MonkeyDust> pras  arrow up to go back to your original question and repeat
[15:42] <llutz_> jenia: unix permissions only work on unix-filesystems

[15:44] <utu-san> llutz I thought the owner and group is the same for her case

[15:45] <pras> quick- , thanks for those channel.. i would try them too.. but i am facing it in Ubuntu since 11.10 and so i thought i shall ask here... I tried Fedora 16 with same kernel version but there was no issue.. but i want to get back to ubuntu since a year..

[15:50] <WhereIsMySpoon> MonkeyDust: i press up, the number below the 00 in green goes up
[15:50] <WhereIsMySpoon> but the 00 doesnt
[15:50] <furkan> i add a partition a usb memory stick with gparted, then i use unetbootin for installing ubuntu to usb memory stick
[15:50] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Options are 00 and MM
[15:50] <furkan> but it isnt boot
[15:51] <WhereIsMySpoon> well there is no mm
[15:51] <WhereIsMySpoon> just all 00
[15:51] <WhereIsMySpoon> and volume on master is 37
[15:51] <coldpizza72i> What exactly is "ubuntu-desktop".. One of the fixes for a problem I'm having says to reinstall that
[15:52] <MonkeyDust> WhereIsMySpoon  yeah, it's the bar that counts
[15:52] <WhereIsMySpoon> MonkeyDust: that bar is going up
[15:52] <furkan> can anybody help me
[15:52] <WhereIsMySpoon> still no volume
[15:52] <furkan> i use gparted
[15:52] <furkan> i format a partition fat32
[15:52] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: PCM  (is it turned up?)
[15:52] <WhereIsMySpoon> that was a mistake
[15:52] <furkan> i install ubuntu on it with unetbootin
[15:52] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: pcm is almost maxed
[15:52] <furkan> but it isnt boot
[15:52] <WhereIsMySpoon> how on earth did you install ubuntu on a fat32 parition
[15:53] <MonkeyDust> WhereIsMySpoon  press TAB inside alsamixer, it goes to more options
[15:53] <furkan> live ubuntu
[15:53] <furkan> we can do it
[15:53] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: its a meta-package, which pulls a lot of packages as dependencies when being installed
[15:53] <WhereIsMySpoon> MonkeyDust: pressed tab a few times, one-two more bars, all are above 0 and not muted
[15:53] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: ... and F6 to select sound card.
[15:54] <coldpizza72i> I don't have X right now… How can I connect to network via command line
[15:54] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: thats on default
[15:54] <furkan> WhereIsMySpoon: on usb memory stick. with unetbootin. i can do it on Windows
[15:55] <hidn_shadows> What's the program that controls the bars at the top of the screen, usually has the exit, minimize, and maximize buttons, as well as drag functionality? I'm using 10.04, and they disappeared
[15:55] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: What to do a test?  play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[15:55] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: was just playing a yt vid
[15:55] <MonkeyDust> hidn_shadows  metacity
[15:55] <CharlieSu> part
[15:55] <hidn_shadows> Monkeydust I'll try a reinstall, thanks bro
[15:55] <furkan> f*ckin gparted
[15:55] <MonkeyDust> hidn_shadows  no
[15:55] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: What?  (I am newcomer to this issue/conversation).
[15:55] <MonkeyDust> hidn_shadows  just type alt-f2 metacity
[15:55] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: was playing a youtube vid to test it
[15:56] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> just tried that too
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> nothing
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> it plays
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> but no sound
[15:56] <FloodBot1> WhereIsMySpoon: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> oops, sorry, i do that when im frustrated :(
[15:56] <hidn_shadows> Monkeydust alt f2 turns it into CLI mode, doesn't it?
[15:56] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: DO you know how i can connect to network via command line
[15:56] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Ok.  Please see that you have working speakers plugged into active port.
[15:56] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: i do
[15:57] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: did you setup your network in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[15:57] <TriBeCa99> anyone know how to boot to a degraded RAID10 in 12.04?
[15:57] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: It appears that your sound is working.  Please double check.
[15:57] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: i just did
[15:57] <MonkeyDust> hidn_shadows  kind of, yes
[15:57] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: Not particularly but i have been on the network when my X was running
[15:57] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: See that headphones channel is turned up and try ear-phones.
[15:57] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: i have volume on high adn im using headphones
[15:58] <hidn_shadows> Monkeydust never mind, thats ctrl alt f2. It didn't work though, the bars didn't reappear. I've had my computer go CLI, and I'm too dumb to switch back to GUI so I had to restart.
[15:58] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Is this a laptop or desktop.
[15:58] <WhereIsMySpoon> desktop
[15:58] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: "nmcli con"  does it list any connections?
[15:58] <MonkeyDust> hidn_shadows  not ctrl alt f2, just alt f2
[15:59] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: desktop
[15:59] <hidn_shadows> I did that, it went to a Run prompt window. It didn't do anything though. The Ctrl alt F2 was a past experience
[15:59] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: Warning… couldn't connect to system bus
[15:59] <usr13> !sound | WhereIsMySpoon
[15:59] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: is that supposed to happen
[15:59] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: i doubt that...
[16:00] <hidn_shadows> MonkeyDust sorry, losing my mind... I did that, it went to a Run prompt window. It didn't do anything though. The Ctrl alt F2 was a past experience
[16:00] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: wht do i do
[16:00] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: are you using wired or wifi?
[16:00] <TriBeCa99> anyone know how to boot to a degraded RAID10 in 12.04?
[16:00] <coldpizza72i> wired
[16:00] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon:  Unplug from headphones jack and try speakers.
[16:00] <WhereIsMySpoon> i dont have any speakers
[16:00] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: sudo ifconfig eth0 up && sudo dhclient eth0
[16:01] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: That is unfortunate.
[16:01] <howardgrigg> hey does anyone have any experience setting up a watch folder with transmission?
[16:01] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: uninstall pulseaudio
[16:01] <jasonz> hi  have installed claw email in ubuntu 12.04 to replace thunderbird can anyone advise me on how to turn on notifications when I get an email. yhank you
[16:01] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: done
[16:02] <hidn_shadows> monkeydust and the weird thing is, it's only this account. my main one works just fine, this is my school acct.
[16:02] <jasonz> thank you
[16:02] <peko_lap> Hi.
[16:02] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon:   If I were you, I'd get or borrow some speakers for testing.
[16:02] <DucBlangis> Whats a good text based mp3 player?
[16:02] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: it wants me to user service utility
[16:02] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Could be there is a hardware problem.
[16:02] <DucBlangis> Currently using Mp3blaster
[16:02] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: these headphiones worked fine half an hour ago in windows
[16:02] <WhereIsMySpoon> and haev worked fine in linux before
[16:03] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Before ____________?
[16:03] <llutz_> coldpizza72i: you are not root/sudo-user on that machine?
[16:03] <WhereIsMySpoon> in fact, i was using them fine in this linux session before i unplugged them
[16:03] <WhereIsMySpoon> then replugged
[16:03] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: yesterday, today
[16:03] <coldpizza72i> llutz_: I used sudo
[16:03] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, did you check group permission between the two accounts then?
[16:03] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Still not sure it is not a hardware issue.
[16:04] <peko_lap> Get a spare set? Reboot?
[16:04] <peko_lap> There are sound-issues in Ubuntu for me to.
[16:04] <hidn_shadows> mbeierl would metacity be affected that much by account permissions? It should be standard for every account. I'm guessing I just FUBAR'd the settings a while ago
[16:04] <WhereIsMySpoon> i might just reboot
[16:05] <WhereIsMySpoon> bye
[16:05] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Do you have any newly install apps or updates since sound was working?
[16:05] <coldpizza72i> llutz: I'm online now
[16:06] <peko_lap> Anyone have the time and will to help me upgrade Java to 7?
[16:06] <peko_lap> In Firefox.
[16:06] <Chelsea__> Hi all, is there an updated version (12.04) of the 11.04 Unity keyboards-shortcut wallpaper?
[16:06] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, true.  What about the (?) gconf-editor - under apps/metacity?
[16:06] <wilee-nilee> peko_lap, look on the web with webud8 and java 7 they have all the info.
[16:06] <hidn_shadows> Mbeierl I honestly don't have much experience with gconf
[16:07] <peko_lap> I need to get into my bank account. dnb.no
[16:07] <peko_lap> Tried http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-in-ubuntu-12-04.html
[16:07] <peko_lap> No luck.
[16:08] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: cat /var/log/dpkg.log
[16:08] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows,  - silly question - can you get an xterm/gnome-term or any other terminal started when you are logged into this account?  Try a simple "metacity --replace&" and see what happens
[16:08] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, also, you're not using compiz or the "emerald decorator" are you?
[16:08] <TriBeCa99> can anyone help? I have a RAID10 mounted to /home and need to boot with a single drive missing, but I keep getting boucned to BusyBox prompt
[16:08] <gigio94> ciao
[16:08] <gigio94> !list
[16:09] <wilee-nilee> peko_lap, http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[16:10] <coldpizza72i> I just turned my computer on and its stuck after "* Checking battery state…  [ OK ]"
[16:10] <hidn_shadows> mbeierl I can open terminal fine, and I'm not using compiz
[16:11] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, and the metacity --replace & - did that cause anything interesting to appear?
[16:11] <coldpizza72i> what do i do
[16:11] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: no new apps, and why do you want the dpkg log
[16:12] <hidn_shadows> mbeierl everything just flashed and then the bars appeared... then Docky (a secondary dock) says it needs compositing to work. Maybe I was dumb and disabled metacity to get docky to work
[16:12] <hidn_shadows> Mbeierl because docky just took up a third of my screen and it was working fine before, I'm assuming that's it.
[16:13] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, that would be compiz - to get compositing.  Not sure that metacity can do compositing.
[16:13] <shade34321> The mouse and keyboard for my computer are no longer working. When I ssh in the Xorg logs show this, http://pastebin.com/mdVYQyxD , any suggestions on how to fix it?
[16:14] <hidn_shadows> mbeierl I'll probably try switching later, I'm in the middle of my school's lecture/free work period. Thanks for the help mate!
[16:14] <coldpizza72i> llutz: do you have any idea what i could do?
[16:14] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, glad that got the decorations back.  Now - will they stay is a different question :)
[16:14] <peko_lap> I get this error: raise NoDistroTemplateException("Error: could not find a "
 aptsources.distro.NoDistroTemplateException: Error: could not find a distribution template
[16:14] <mbeierl> hidn_shadows, now get back to your lab work!!!
[16:14] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: ok somehow the sound is working again
[16:14] <WhereIsMySpoon> but my mic isnt
[16:14] <usr13> wilee-nilee: I don't, you do.  (Mine is working :)
[16:15] <WhereIsMySpoon> there's no device in input in sound prefs
[16:15] <WhereIsMySpoon> and my mic jack is deffo in the right slot
[16:15] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: ps aux |grep flash
[16:15] <qmanjr5> Anyone know of a magnifying software that will follow the cursor whilst typing?
[16:15] <peko_lap> Good that your sound is back Spoon. I too have the input problem.
[16:15] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: nothing
[16:15] <WhereIsMySpoon> just the grep process
[16:16] <WhereIsMySpoon> i think im gonna reboot again
[16:16] <WhereIsMySpoon> see if that makes it aware
[16:17] <qmanjr5> Anyone know of a magnifying software that will follow the cursor whilst typing?
[16:17] <TriBeCa99> i can't apt-get install mdadm in a live CD session because I get a Postfix Configuration screen that I'm locked out of
[16:17] <TriBeCa99> anyone seen this before?
[16:17] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: There is probably no device input because you have not configured one.  Try alasmixer
[16:18] <usr13> *alsamixer
[16:18] <mdtanos> hello
[16:18] <peko_lap> qmanjr5: Thread about magnifying here. But sorry I'm noob. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=628741
[16:19] <TriBeCa99> nm i got it, bizzarre interface
[16:19] <usr13> TriBeCa99: I do not believe you can install new apps on LiveCD
[16:19] <TriBeCa99> usr13 hmm, that's a problem
[16:20] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: alsamixer: input source is mic, volume is up
[16:20] <coldpizza72i> is gem the default display manager
[16:20] <coldpizza72i> gdm
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> usr13  TriBeCa99 you can, but as soon as you end the session, it's lost
[16:20] <W4sp> coldpizza72i: It is lightdm.
[16:20] <TriBeCa99> MonkeyDust thanks
[16:20] <TriBeCa99> i figured that
[16:21] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: arrows will select mic1 or mic2 (if mic2 exists)
[16:21] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: there is only mic, front mic and line
[16:21] <WhereIsMySpoon> and my mic is in a jack in the back of the comp, which is mic
[16:21] <TriBeCa99> so usr13 and MonkeyDust, can either of you help me set up my new RAID10?
[16:21] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Sounds like there may be some sort of conflict.
[16:21] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: there hasnt been before
[16:22] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: before _______________ ?
[16:22] <WhereIsMySpoon> like i said, earlier today and before today
[16:22] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: ( date, time, event etc...)
[16:22] <qmanjr5> Anyone know of a magnifying software that will follow the cursor whilst typing?
[16:23] <shade34321> The mouse and keyboard for my computer are no longer working. When I ssh in the Xorg logs show this, http://pastebin.com/mdVYQyxD , any suggestions on how to fix it?
[16:23] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon:
[16:23] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: cat /var/log/dpkg.log
[16:23] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: how will that help
[16:23] <TriBeCa99> so usr13 and MonkeyDust, can either of you help me set up my new RAID10? I have 4 1.5TB drives mounting /home, a single SSD mounting /, and 4 brand new 3TB drives that need to replace the 1.5TB drives.
[16:23] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: I don't know
[16:23] <TriBeCa99> and only 6 SATA ports
[16:24] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: It is OBVIOUS!
[16:24] <WhereIsMySpoon> what
[16:24] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: what on earth are you on about
[16:24] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: You will see if there were package changes on or before the date of the anomaly
[16:24] <TriBeCa99> the problem is that I can't seem to boot with a degraded RAID array
[16:25] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: the last thing i installed before sox (the play program) was monodevelop, which was weeks ago
[16:26] <ofcan> hello! I cannot use update manager, and I get this error > Error:Opening the cahce (E:Encountered a section with no Package:header, E:problem with MergeList/var/lib/apt/lists/hr.archibe.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_binary-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.). This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies. What to do?
[16:26] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Ok.  Good.  (You have now ruled out the possibility of a package installation or update that may have caused the issue.)
[16:27] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: I didn't follow the thread you are on about but you would need to have GRUB installed on all HDD. If you have to remove the one containing GRUB the others will have it still.
[16:27] <phasma> may I request assistance with fixing my resolution, please? I have an sis 771 and using the driver as directed by this page: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/sis - The laptop supports 1440x900. Here is the xorg log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157452/ - Thanks in advance
[16:27] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: You do understand that the process-of-elemination is a valid method of diagnosis.  Right?
[16:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: yes
[16:28] <coldpizza72i> I installed gdm but my computer is still using lightdm… how do i change it
[16:28] <usr13> Ok good.
[16:29] <usr13> *elimination*
[16:29] <W4sp> coldpizza72i: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm  Did you see my previous post?
[16:29] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: Did you check to see that alsa drivers are new as possible?
[16:29] <Gianluca> hello! can i ask one information?
[16:29] <coldpizza72i> no...

[16:32] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: You could purge any custom configurations that you've made, and any hand-compiled modules that you've built, and restore your sound stack to the "Official" Ubuntu core.
[16:33] <dell> hi
[16:33] <coldpizza72i> hmmm… My gem is failing
[16:33] <coldpizza72i> gdm
[16:33] <usr13> hi dell, btw, I have your computer here.
[16:33] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: how
[16:33] <dell> coldpizza
[16:33] <dell> ?

[16:34] <W4sp> coldpizza72i: I gave you two responses. Do not expect any assitance if you don't read them.
[16:34] <dell> usr13?
[16:34] <peko_lap> allright
[16:35] <usr13> WhereIsMySpoon: You could also the latest drivers from alsa-project.org (In fact, I would try that first.) See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[16:35] <W4sp> coldpizza72i: You can repeat that your gdm isn't working but that will not invoke any changes in your configuration.
[16:35] <coldpizza72i> W4sp: huh? I already reconfigured it to gdm… It says "Starting GNOME display manager    [ fail ]" when i boot
[16:35] <Gianluca> !list
[16:36] <TriBeCa99> W4sp there's no thread, as there's noone helping me yet
[16:36] <WhereIsMySpoon> usr13: theyre at the latest
[16:36] <TriBeCa99> I have GRUB on the SSD, so the HDDs in the RAID shouldn't need it afaik
[16:36] <usr13> dell: Just teasing, (an attempt at humor - alluding to the fact that my computer says "Dell" on the front of it.)
[16:38] <dell> why you words is red
[16:38] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Yes, that's correct. I didn't know the first part and noticed you're not assisted yet. Hence my comment re. GRUB. If you boot from SSD, then mounting your array it 'should' work. Should... ;-)
[16:38] <dell> usr13
[16:38] <WhereIsMySpoon> dell: cause he highlighted you
[16:38] <WhereIsMySpoon> by saying your name
[16:38] <SnapSnap> Anyone know of a PGP or Seahorse channel?
[16:39] <dell> so i can say someone's name,
[16:39] <dell> and highlight ?
[16:39] <TriBeCa99> my plan was to take out 1 of the RAID disks, boot degraded, assemble a new degraded array, copy /home over to it, destroy the old array, and put in the last disks for the new array
[16:39] <vishet> hi can someone help me with something i have linuxmint maya and got help getting here because I have a problem with my computer
[16:39] <TriBeCa99> however, i can't boot degraded at all, although in principle it SHOULD work
[16:40] <dell> this is an amazing place
[16:40] <W4sp> SnapSnap: PGP is commercial, you may need to look for GnuPG or GPG. Seahorse come from the GNOME tree and is part of GNOME
[16:40] <dell> usr13:do you think so?
[16:40] <SnapSnap> W4sp: Thanks
[16:41] <W4sp> SnapSnap: YOu can also ask questions of it is Ubuntu related, ie seahorse, GPG.
[16:41] <vishet> i get the option s mount manually ... or d recovery before i get to linux and one time i probably by acident pressed d and it stared memtest and never stopped, re installed linux mint but still have the problem
[16:41] <aboudreault> damn... I think I'm experiencing this issue: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=670581
[16:41] <vishet> i think after talking to people at linucmint chat that its because i used a usb before i restared the computer
[16:41] <wilee-nilee> vishet, This is ubuntu support we can only help there, try ##linuxmint  ;)
[16:42] <vishet> and i need to se if something is wrong
[16:42] <jrib> !mint | vishet
[16:42] <vishet> ok but they sent me here
[16:42] <jrib> vishet: why would they send you here?  This channel is for ubuntu, not mint
[16:43] <usr13> dell: Yea, it is amazing here.  (This is where people come when they have problems, issues, or just have questions, needing to learn more about their Ubuntu systems.)
[16:43] <vishet> because they dont understand whats wrong with my computor i guess and though you might no more about this kind of installation error?
[16:44] <vishet> i have no idea
[16:44] <TriBeCa99> W4sp are you able to help?
[16:44] <dell> usr13:how to change my nickname?
[16:45] <usr13> vishet: memtest stops when (and only when) you hit the Esc key.
[16:45] <SnapSnap> Okay. More of a curiosity than a problem: When verifying a signature, GPG tells you when the signature was created. When creating the signature, does the program consult the system time, or does GPG just look at the signature's creation/modification date when verifying?
[16:45] <Artix12345> Hellooooooooooo!!!
[16:45] <Guest66987> Hey guys, Can someone help me to get my 5.1 surround working on Ubuntu 12.04 ?
[16:45] <vishet> usr13 i know but it did not stop so i reinstalled linux that problem is solved
[16:46] <usr13> dell: /nick <new-nick>
[16:46] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: I don't know. I understand that you need assistance in setting up aRAID array. The best is to post the question all in one paragraph. They all come and go and chances are that your problem can be solved.
[16:46] <phasma> may I request assistance with fixing my resolution, please? I have an sis 771 and using the driver as directed by this page: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/sis - The laptop supports 1440x900 but I am only getting 1280x768. Here is the xorg log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157452/ and here is my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157481/  - Thanks in advance
[16:47] <vishet> usr the problem is that i still get the option s for manual and d for recovery because i thought the installation was finished but forgo to restart the computor before i used my usb
[16:47] <dell> usr13:/ok,thanks, but now I like this nick
[16:47] <TriBeCa99> W4sp the main thing I need help with right now is simply booting into 12.04 with a degraded RAID10 array. At present I just get bounced to a BusyBox prompt during the OS boot up
[16:47] <dell> usr13:thank you
[16:47] <usr13> NP
[16:48] <vishet> usr13 the problem is that i still get the option s for manual and d for recovery because i thought the installation was finished but forgo to restart the computor before i used my usb
[16:48] <dell> SnapSnap:a chinese student
[16:48] <shade34321> The mouse and keyboard for my computer are no longer working. When I ssh in the Xorg logs show this, http://pastebin.com/mdVYQyxD , any suggestions on how to fix it?
[16:48] <dell> SnapSnap:in fact, i know too little
[16:48] <ldp> Guys, I need some help with audio
[16:48] <usr13> shade34321: Do you use a KVM?
[16:49] <vishet> usr13 is that a permenent problem or will it disapear if i reinstall?
[16:49] <ldp> HDMI audio on my nvidia card isn't being detected
[16:49] <ldp> and I followed the troubleshooting guide
[16:49] <ldp> but there's no alsa update for my current kernel version
[16:49] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: AFAIK you need an alternate ISO image. What ISO is in use?
[16:50] <usr13> shade34321: What kind of keyboard is it?
[16:50] <usr13> shade34321: Does it work in tty6 ?
[16:50] <Ibra25> ciao!
[16:50] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: But I'm on thin ice and would prefer if someone else gives expertise. But let's see how far we can get.
[16:51] <ldp> anyone? :/
[16:51] <vishet> usr13 if not how could i check what the problem is i already checked something that is called fstab and it looked fine
[16:51] <TriBeCa99> I have a 12.04 liveCD if that's what you mean. If I have to work from a liveCD I'm a bit confused--I installed mdadm in the liveCD but I can't seem to see the existing RAID
[16:51] <usr13> shade34321: Oh, sorry... you probably don't know because you can't get to tty6, never mind.
[16:51] <Ibra25> !addon
[16:51] <SnapSnap> dell: me too, but it's not a problem so I can take my time looking for an answer
[16:51] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Is it an 32 or 64 bit you have?
[16:51] <TriBeCa99> 64
[16:51] <Ibra25> !list
[16:52] <shade34321> usr13: no I am not using KVM. It's a dell keyboard.
[16:52] <usr13> shade34321: Does the display look normal?  (Screensize is correct for monitor.?)
[16:52] <shade34321> usr13: I am able to login to the machine through ssh
[16:52] <shade34321> usr13: yes
[16:52] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: OK, let me see what I can figure out. IT's perhaps down to the wrong image and easy to fix.
[16:52] <usr13> shade34321: Is the keyboard USB or PS2 ....?
[16:52] <dell> SnapSnap:Take time to do what I want, Nice guy
[16:52] <TriBeCa99> I have 12.04 desktop x64
[16:52] <usr13> shade34321: Did you try un-plugging and plugging it back in again?
[16:53] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: OK, let me see what I can figure out. IT's perhaps down to the wrong image and easy to fix.
[16:53] <usr13> shade34321: Does keyboard work at grub screen?
[16:53] <shade34321> usr13: both are USB. Yes I have unplugged them, used different keyboard/mice/, put them in different ports
[16:53] <shade34321> usr13: yes it works at grub screen. Booting into an older kernel does not fix the issue
[16:54] <TriBeCa99> fwiw, 'sudo mdadm --query --detail /dev/md0' returns "cannot open /dev/md0"
[16:54] <shade34321> usr13: The keyboard and mouse seem to work all the way up until the login screen where it does. I am able to get to a VT while it's loading but unable to login completely
[16:55] <usr13> shade34321: Did you try failsafe mode? (or "text-only" mode?)
[16:55] <coldpizza72i> When i boot my computer… right after the motherboard screen my display looses signal.
[16:55] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Does your dmesg inform you that md0 is detected?
[16:55] <usr13> shade34321: Ok, then it is a problem with xorg
[16:56] <abletony84> Have two identical backup HDs here. Is there a nice way to keep the secondary one in sync with the primary one?
[16:56] <abletony84> I.e. when files on the primary are added, deleted, modified or renamed -- so that I don't have to repeat stuff over at the secondary one.
[16:56] <TriBeCa99> W4sp dmesg prints kind of a lot of text... how do i check for md0 specifically?
[16:56] <shade34321> usr13: xorg won't load the drivers. In the log it shows that it sees them but then says No input driver specified, ignoring this device
[16:57] <usr13> shade34321: do you have an xorg.conf file?
[16:57] <usr13> shade34321: If so, remove it.
[16:57] <usr13> shade34321: Did you just install a new kernel? or...?
[16:57] <abletony84> TriBeCa99: dmesg | grep md0
[16:57] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: you can 'sudo cat /var/log/dmesg |grep md0' if it's found it will give output.
[16:58] <shade34321> usr13: right now I don't...I purged xorg and reinstalled it. I just did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to see if it fixes it. I recently upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04
[16:58] <abletony84> W4sp: ubuntu doesnt have a "dmesg" command?
[16:58] <usr13> shade34321: Did it work after the upgrade?
[16:58] <coldpizza72i> I think i accidentally uninstalled my graphics driver… any ideas what i should do?
[16:58] <TriBeCa99> W4sp abletony84 nothing
[16:58] <shade34321> usr13: I'm about to go check on it, may take me a sec since I have to go downstairs slowly with my crutches. Yes it worked but while configuring the Nvidia drivers it stopped after a reboot
[16:58] <usr13> shade34321: Did you do:  rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf    ?
[16:59] <shade34321> usr13: no but I did mv them yesterday so they no longer reside there but rather under /root just in case
[16:59] <usr13> shade34321: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf      #What does that say?
[17:00] <shade34321> usr13: there isnt a xorg.conf file there
[17:01] <usr13> shade34321: hummm.. that is interesting.  And your  keyboard and mouse are both USB?
[17:01] <W4sp> abletony84: It has but I'm an OpenBSD girl. It's better to stay safe. You'r right, your command is shorter and better.
[17:01] <shade34321> usr13: yes
[17:01] <usr13> shade34321: Try PS2 mouse and keyboard.
[17:01] <abletony84> W4sp: cool, im an openbsd boy
[17:02] <usr13> shade34321: Just plug in a ps2 keyboard and see if it works.
[17:02] <abletony84> i was actually gonna recommend openbsd's sexy blue dmesg
[17:02] <shade34321> usr13: should I try and get a xorg.conf file? or am I better off without one?
[17:02] <abletony84> it's ridiculously cool
[17:03] <usr13> shade34321: For now, you are better off without one, but after you solve the keyboard/mouse problem(s) you can do nvidia-xconfig from text mode.
[17:03] <W4sp> abletony84: Grand. :-) I make a mental note of your nick. I hope our paths will cross again. Are you on -current?
[17:03] <Growling> irc.office.xs4all.nl
[17:03] <abletony84> W4sp: yeah that'd be cool
[17:03] <shade34321> usr13: ok. Well I just rebooted that computer. Headed downstairs to see if they are working...brb
[17:03] <abletony84> W4sp: nope release
[17:03] <kasturi> Hello all, i am having a small mobile internet problem
[17:03] <usr13> shade34321: You an do it now, I supppose, but I doubt it will fix anything.
[17:03] <usr13> shade34321: Ok
[17:04] <Jayflux> hey guys, when preseeding I get the filename and the answer, but where do you find the question string? For debconf-get-selections.
[17:04] <usr13> shade34321: *can* not *an*
[17:05] <W4sp> abletony84: I need to see how hibernation does in -current as I have the platform for it. But at the same time it's my day-in-day-out laptop for everything and that's read as 'production'. At the end of the day, obsd requires 15 secs to boot. :-)
[17:05] <kasturi> hello, i am using 3g internet through mobile at wired usb connection, but unable to go above 15kbps, can anyone help ?
[17:06] <ariqz> that sounds like gprs to me, kasturi
[17:06] <THAMER> hello
[17:06] <TriBeCa99> soooo W4sp, abletony84, any help with the RAID scenario? If I can't at all boot to a degraded array, I'm going to have to be able to get /home off of a degraded array from a liveCD onto a 'new' degraded array... then get the new array healthy and be able to boot into my 12.04 install
[17:07] <THAMER> ?
[17:07] <TriBeCa99> or actually here's another idea.
[17:07] <kasturi> yes, but that is all iam getting, i am able to get hi speeds with windows 7 though
[17:08] <abletony84> W4sp: openbsd sounds perfect for you girl!
[17:08] <abletony84> *high five*
[17:08] <TriBeCa99> all the data in /home is backed up to another machine already.  The risk is why devs should bother to contribute if friendly projects are out there. The misc@ and #openbsd are hostile territory at best. ;-)
[17:14] <IdleOne> !ot
[17:14] <sportsfreund20> hi Leute
[17:14] <abletony84> W4sp: hehe yeah true true:-)
[17:14] <W4sp> IdleOne: Point taken, IdleOne.
[17:14] <W4sp> !de | sportsfreund20
[17:15] <sportsfreund20> hey guys
[17:16] <sportsfreund20> I have a big problem with my bootloader
[17:16] <abletony84> W4sp: remember these next time you party: http://ftp.uio.no/pub/OpenBSD/songs/
[17:16] <TriBeCa99> W4sp If I change fstab to put md0 on /mnt/blabla won't it bork my installation? how will i be able to log back in?
[17:16] <sportsfreund20> somebody told me the solution a few days ago
[17:16] <abletony84> oh yeah OT
[17:16] <abletony84> my bad
[17:16] <genii-around> gandhijee_: Might want to try installing the -dev packages you need specifying i386 ...eg: sudo apt-get install manpages-dev:i386
[17:17] <sportsfreund20> he meant I should install the "refind"  bootmanager
[17:17] <sportsfreund20> (http://rodsbooks.com/refind/getting.html)
[17:17] <sportsfreund20> but I dont know how to do that
[17:17] <sportsfreund20> can somebody give me some tipps?
[17:17] <usr13> !grub | sportsfreund20
[17:18] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: That's not what I meant. Sorry. Instead of automount your RAID to mntpoint /home use /dev/alternate and mount to /home temporarily. Mount /dev/md0 on /mnt/...
[17:18] <shade34321> usr13: still doesn't work
[17:18] <sportsfreund20> grub doesnt recognize my windows 7 SSD.. @ usr13
[17:18] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: That way your /home is alive and you can work the /dev/md0
[17:18] <TriBeCa99> the only other device (other than swap) is already mounted to "/"
[17:19] <WhereIsMySpoon> is there any way to change the order of what is on the right click menu when i right click in a terminal window?
[17:19] <usr13> shade34321: Did you try ps2?
[17:19] <TriBeCa99> don't i need to make a copy of /home first?
[17:20] <shade34321> I don't think it has a ps2 port
[17:20] <usr13> sportsfreund20: Win7 is beyond the scope of my interest.
[17:21] <usr13> sportsfreund20: But, I do know this, many others are using grub to boot Win7 so....
[17:21] <usr13> sportsfreund20: (... just not me ...)
[17:21] <kasturi> got disconnected for while, anyone for mobile internet solution, i am only getting 15kbps max, when connecting to 3g connection
[17:22] <TriBeCa99> W4sp I see what you're getting at, and that's probably the best approach, however please assure me I don't need any of the contents of /home copied to the device that will mount it in future
[17:24] <shade34321> usr13: I don't think there is a ps/2 port
[17:24] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: I don't see that it would do that way. Do you have shiploads of disk space? I would consider dd them to a save place.
[17:25] <phasma> may I request assistance with fixing my resolution, please? I have an sis 771 and using the driver as directed by this page: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/sis - The laptop supports 1440x900 but I am only getting 1280x768. Here is the xorg log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157452/ and here is my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157481/  - Thanks in advance
[17:25] <usr13> shade34321: nvidia-xconfig
[17:25] <usr13> shade34321: Do the usb ports work for anything else? (Test and see...)
[17:25] <TriBeCa99> W4sp the data contents of /home are all backed up on the 6TB RAID10 on the computer i'm currently typing at you from
[17:26] <Kre10s> so i upgraded to 12.04 LTS and to my unpleasant surprise wireless did not work anymore... I did a quick google search and found that many others also had this problem. however i could not find any definitive fix. I have a BCM4313 which driver works best with that?
[17:26] <shade34321> usr13: it wrote a new xorg.conf file, reboot now? I will stick a USB drive in them when I go down in a sec
[17:26] <TriBeCa99> so i could, e.g., delete the data out of /home and copy it
[17:26] <usr13> shade34321:  Ok
[17:26] <kasturi> anyone for mobile internet solution, i am only getting 15kbps max, when connecting to 3g connection
[17:27] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Yeah. And there is / with the all the configs. It's jsut that you need to stay on the safe side as there is not time for loosers and no space left for goof-ups.
[17:27] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: (just saying... )
[17:27] <TriBeCa99> so... you're suggesting what, exactly?
[17:28] <udit> yeah
[17:28] <TriBeCa99> a) edit fstab so md0 mounts to /mnt/blabla instead of /home, and then... ?
[17:28] <onicev> Hello
[17:29] <onicev> I need help
[17:29] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: comment out /home in fstab, mkdir /home on / partition. Boot from SSD with madm installed and see what can be done with /dev/md0
[17:29] <onicev> How can I go to Ubuntu in spanish, please?
[17:29] <Slart> !es | onicev
[17:29] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: I would try to mount manually and see what it gives.
[17:30] <onicev> gracias ubottu. Thank you ubottu.
[17:30] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: I can see we sing from the same hymnsheet.
[17:31] <Areckx> ssh: Could not resolve hostname <IP_ADDRESS>:22: Name or service not known
[17:32] <TriBeCa99> okay, let's see how this goes
[17:32] <Areckx> This is my iPhone, I used to be able to SSH but out of nowhere it stopped working..
[17:32] <usr13> Areckx: drop the last : ?
[17:32] <sportsfreund20> how can i find out if grub is installed porperly?
[17:33] <usr13> Areckx: (unless that is just part of the error message...)
[17:33] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: OK, I stay tuned and cross my fingers. If there's anything you need me for I'll be available for you.
[17:33] <Areckx> usr13::  ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: No route to host
[17:33] <usr13> Areckx: Are  you sure the IP os correct?
[17:33] <sportsfreund20> and when i look with "gparted" where is the "Efi System Partition"??
[17:33] <TriBeCa99> by mount manually, you meant unmount manually correct?
[17:33] <Areckx> yes I am staring at it right now
[17:33] <usr13> o
[17:33] <TriBeCa99> fstab line is commented, no i need to unmount /home and create it on the / partition?
[17:34] <Areckx> I didn't change anything on my iPhone, and this is a fresh isntall of ubuntu 10.04, it worked fine then out of nowhere sstopped
[17:34] <usr13> Areckx: nmap -p22 <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:34] <Areckx> I tried reinstalling openssh on iPhone
[17:35] <usr13> Areckx: Sounds like you are on wrong network...
[17:35] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Sorry That's just me trying to be careful. If it's in automount it may attempt to repair things. So if you umount /home and mount it back after reboot it may try to fix things you don't want to fix manually.
[17:35] <amokpaule> Hello, i have a very long start command in java for a programm. Is there a so that it will appaear short in ps ax so that i can kill it easier?
[17:35] <Areckx> no that's not the case
[17:36] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: ... upi don't want to be fixed automaticaly.
[17:37] <Areckx> usr13::  Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -PN
[17:37] <Areckx> Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 3.06 seconds
[17:37] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Does it make sense? I suggested not to run automount for /dev/md0 as things may break and we don;t want to have any fsck modding the drives.
[17:37] <TriBeCa99> W4sp i'm not sure i understand
[17:38] <TriBeCa99> i've commented out the line in fstab that mounts /home on fstab... what did you want me to do now?
[17:38] <usr13> Areckx: Again, sounds like you are not on the network.
[17:38] <Areckx> usr13::  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1157560/
[17:38] <TriBeCa99> btw I'm no longer in the liveCD session, I rebooted into my ubuntu installation
[17:38] <Areckx> usr13::  yes they are both connected to the same netowork!
[17:39] <Areckx> I triple checked usr13
[17:40] <eyepatch> I'm trying to get both ati and nvidia drivers for my two video cards, is this possible? my ati driver install is failing atm.
[17:41] <Areckx> usr13::  it worked on the other router I was connected to, but the admin plays videogames and would randomly turn off wireless so I connectefd to the router downstairs which is on a different modem and then SSH stopped working
[17:41] <usr13> Areckx:  There is your answer:  "22/tcp filtered ssh"
[17:41] <Areckx> usr13::  how do I fix it
[17:41] <Areckx> ?
[17:42] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: That's what I meant referring to SSD. So... comment out /etc/fstab for /dev/md0, umount /dev/md0 (then do with it whatever you want) but have /home/<youruser> available just in case you need another login. Get the SSD system into single user mode of course so no users can bother you.
[17:42] <usr13> Areckx: I don't know.  Could be your router is blocking port 22?
[17:42] <Areckx> usr13::  ahhh I see, I can fix that I am basically the admin
[17:42] <usr13> Areckx: (I don't know anything about your LAN so....)
[17:43] <TriBeCa99> so now i umount /dev/md0 and mkdir /home/<myuser>?
[17:44] <shade34321> usr13: It is recognizing other USB products, I just plugged in 4 different USB drives and it recognizes all of them
[17:44] <W4sp> TriBeCa99: Yes, I would do that. But if you are unsure about those things it's better not to do it.
[17:46] <usr13> shade34321: Ok, good.  Another issue eliminated
[17:46] <TriBeCa99> ah, yeah. "/home: device is busy"
[17:46] <usr13> shade34321: So, you how have /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[17:47] <usr13> shade34321: lsb_release -r  #Tell us what that says.
[17:48] <Praxi> hmm ubuntu 12.04, I click on firefox and nothing is happening.  Is there some type of process viewer?   Is fstab still commented out?
[17:52] <usr13> Praxi: But from top,  just  k  24459
[17:52] <shade34321> usr13: 11.10
[17:53] <usr13> shade34321: http://askubuntu.com/questions/127410/upgrading-to-ubuntu-12-04-loses-keyboard-and-mouse
[17:53] <shade34321> usr13: after the upgrade it was working but I had to move the computer and after I moved the computer I had problems with the nvidia drivers so when i was messing with that I rebooted and that's when it stopped working.
[17:53] <A_J_> my upgrade to ubuntu 12.04 is stuck.
[17:54] <A_J_> says 11 mins left from the last 2 hours
[17:54] <shade34321> usr13: I saw that. I will try it again
[17:54] <usr13> A_J_: Patience is a virtue
[17:54] <A_J_> usr13: i think it's stuck.
[17:54] <genii-around> 2 hours of patience is pretty virtuous
[17:54] <usr13> A_J_: Internet connection still up?
[17:55] <A_J_> yes
[17:55] <A_J_> using the laptop atm to speak to you
[17:55] <A_J_> it's at the step installing the updates
[17:55] <usr13> A_J_: Any errors ?
[17:55] <A_J_> usr13: nop.
[17:56] <kasturi> anyone for mobile internet solution, i am only getting 15kbps max, when connecting to 3g connection
[17:56] <A_J_> says installed notificaion demaon
[17:57] <Areckx> usr13::  ok I gave permission to that ip and port... but now it says connection refused on ssh...
[17:57] <A_J_> any idea usr13. or anyway to restrat it without breakin the os
[17:57] <Areckx> ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: Connection refused
[17:57] <usr13> A_J_: I don't know.  You may end up with something like this:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/129964/resuming-an-upgrade-to-12-04-which-got-stuck-on-reconfiguring-dropbox  #but again, I just don't know.  Maybe someone else can give more specific advise.
[17:58] <usr13> A_J_: It could be the sources file did not get written correctly for 12.04
[17:58] <Praxi> thanks for the tips on kill, didn't get it to work, ended up doing killall -9 firefox and that worked

[18:04] <CJKay> Man I hate Java with a passion
[18:05] <CJKay> Why is the Ubuntu font not available to Java?
[18:05] <CJKay> It just picks ridiculously large bold fonts that don't fit in the spaces they've been given, and look ugly *as*
[18:05] <janne_> meening that the top of the laptop is closing and the pic is still running on my bigger screen ..i have a 22" that i like to use istend
[18:05] <usr13> A_J: It should say "precise"
[18:06] <quick-> janne_: change the power settings , when the lid is closed . i guess that shoud work
[18:06] <A_J> it broke usr13
[18:06] <janne_> ok quick i will try that ...thx

[18:08] <A_J> yes usr13
[18:08] <usr13> A_J: Ok, well, sorry....
[18:08] <Areckx> usr13::  I think I found the solution, I need to remove the ssh keys on my iphone
[18:08] <MonkeyDust> jellybear  i noticed the same, look odd
[18:08] <MonkeyDust> looks*
[18:08] <Areckx> usr13::  I need to do some instaling/reinstalling of openssh on iphone side and terminal commands etc so I'll get back to you if it works or not
[18:09] <usr13> Areckx: Ok, good.
[18:09] <janne_> lol did not work *S* both gets black
[18:09] <A_J> this is why i dont like to upgrade :/
[18:09] <CJKay> Does anyone have problems with Java like the stupid fonts in this picture? http://imgur.com/SK5Gb.jpg
[18:11] <usr13> A_J: Well, it usually works fine.  I've done it a number of times.  In fact, I'be got a box here that was originally 6.06
[18:12] <A_J> usr13 hmm bad luck i guess
[18:12] <natschil> Hello, I just installed ubuntu using the alternate x64 installer, but somehow it did not install grub. Is there an easy way to do it quickly, manually? (I'm currently in a shell running ubuntu 12.04 on the computer, so a simple command would be nice)
[18:13] <usr13> !grub | natschil
[18:15] <quick-> natschil:  grub-install /dev/hda
[18:15] <quick-> natschil:   sorry grub-install /dev/XXX
[18:15] <usr13> natschil: sudo grub-install /dev/XX where XXX is the device of your Ubuntu install. (eg: grub-install /dev/sdb). Hint: You can also use /dev/disk/by-label/ if the partition you installed on has a label. You can determine the /dev node for such a device by running: ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/
[18:16] <wilee-nilee> natex, you are in a install right now, or a live cd?
[18:16] <wilee-nilee> natschil, ^^^^^^^
[18:18] <natschil> wilee-nilee: nope, in the shell of the alternate cd
[18:18] <natschil> wilee-nilee: it has no grub-install program, only grub-installer
[18:18] <usr13> natschil: From the alternate CD, you used "rescue"   Right?
[18:18] <natschil> usr13: yea
[18:18] <wilee-nilee> natschil, you can chroot in and run a grub install hold on.
[18:19] <nick_h> what causes a GNU Screen session to die and require wiping?
[18:19] <A_J> usr13 you here for a little while ?
[18:19] <A_J> i have an installation question
[18:19] <wilee-nilee> natschil, this link defaults to the chroot ask any questions if needed.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#ChRoot
[18:20] <rf_c0d3d> #ubuntu-br
[18:20] <usr13> natschil: .... and you selected your boot partition.  Right?
[18:20] <usr13> *root* partition
[18:21] <andrewx> I tried creating a shortcut to an application to Desktop, but I don't see anything!
[18:21] <wilee-nilee> A_J, And what would that be. ;)
[18:21] <andrewx> Explanation why I wouldn't see it on Desktop?
[18:22] <A_J> well i installed ubuntu on a palmtop. it cant get it to boot
[18:22] <wilee-nilee> andrewx, You are running what release?
[18:22] <natschil> usr13: that didn't work, so no
[18:22] <andrewx> 10.04 LTS I think this is...
[18:23] <Bastian_b> Dr_Willis, thanks rc.local work like a charm as expected :)
[18:23] <erictr1ck> will there be any known issues running ubuntu 12.04 on this asus tower: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883220155 ?
[18:23] <usr13> andrewx: Then you will need to chroot to the root partition.
[18:23] <andrewx> ~/Desktop does list the link, but is in Italics
[18:23] <qaliih> Hello. I just installed ubuntu and my cpu runs above 65 celcius.. help?
[18:23] <andrewx> What?
[18:23] <andrewx> I don't understand.
[18:23] <usr13> natschil: You can follow instructions at:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[18:24] <natschil> usr13: ah, here we go, I managed to select my root fs now
[18:24] <thebishop> hello
[18:24] <wilee-nilee> andrewx, you can right click and make a launcher I believe in 10.04, and figure out what release it actually is releases after you can make a launcher but in a different manner
[18:24] <usr13> natschil: sudo grub-install /dev/XX where XXX is the device of your Ubuntu install. (eg: grub-install /dev/sdb). Hint: You can also use /dev/disk/by-label/ if the partition you installed on has a label. You can determine the /dev node for such a device by running: ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/
[18:24] <andrewx> I found another solution that appears to work: Just drag/drop that file from ~/Desktop onto my actual Desktop!
[18:24] <thebishop> is it possible to configure pidgin so the notify icon turns blue when a new message comes in, but does not pop up the text in a libnotify bubble?
[18:25] <qaliih> CPU above runs hot on 65 Celcius, help?
[18:25] <andrewx> Seems strange I have to do it that way. But it works.
[18:25]  * natschil has a wtf moment seeing fdisk -l show "hidden" windows partitions I new nothing about
[18:25] <kashminder> how can i install themes in ubuntu
[18:25] <kashminder> ??
[18:26] <wilee-nilee> natschil, your boot partition eh.
[18:26] <royphelps> @kashminder in the software center, install my unity.
[18:26] <wilee-nilee> the ms boot anyway
[18:26] <minimec> erictr1ck: Well... There are some issues with the current ubuntu kernel. They are working on it. You might experience that whith all ivy bridge cpu/gpu combos. I have a i5 3570k/HD4000, and I had that problem. Newer kernels should be ok https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/999910
[18:26] <natschil> usr13: weird.... it's as if the windows boot loader keeps installing itself when it shouldn't... I used the rescue option to reinstall grub and it claimed to be working, but booting up just brought up windows
[18:26] <usr13> natschil: Education is a wonderful thing.
[18:26] <natschil> usr13: thanks for the link btw
[18:27] <shade34321> usr13: it still doesn't work. I may just end up reinstalling and going from there
[18:27] <natschil> usr13: sorry?
[18:27] <shade34321> usr13: thank you for your help though
[18:28] <wilee-nilee> natschil, Did you install ubuntu from windows?
[18:28] <natschil> wilee-nilee: no
[18:28] <natschil> wilee-nilee: I used the alternate install cd
[18:28] <usr13> shade34321: NP  Sorry I could not help.
[18:28] <wilee-nilee> natschil, there is a bootscript that can be run that will give us a better look at the boot and other issues,
[18:29] <natschil> wilee-nilee: where is it?
[18:29] <usr13> natschil: Are you sure the Ubuntu install finished?
[18:29] <kashminder> ??
[18:29] <usr13> natschil: Show us the output of sudo fdisk -l   (List of partitions.)
[18:29] <kashminder> how can i install themes in ubuntu?
[18:30] <TriBeCa99> W4sp you still here? I finally bit the bullet and rebooted with the commented fstab... now I can only get in as a guest
[18:30] <TriBeCa99> which means i can't sudo, apparently
[18:30] <quick-> TriBeCa99:  Wats the issue ? If u dnt mind
[18:30] <usr13> TriBeCa99: You're going to have to boot to single-user mode and fix it.
[18:31] <TriBeCa99> usr13 how do i do that?
[18:31] <lmann> hi can anyone help with a wireless issue
[18:31] <TriBeCa99> nm i'll just google it
[18:31] <usr13> TriBeCa99: I think you type text at the grub prompt. or rescue?
[18:31] <natschil> usr13: wilee-nilee: strange.... I was able to chroot into my installation and then run grub-install, and it reported no errors... however booting up again just brings up windows
[18:32] <natschil> usr13: I'll bring up fdisk -l as soon as I can boot
[18:32] <kashminder> how can i install themes in ubuntu?
[18:32] <natschil> usr13: as in boot the alternate installl cd again
[18:32] <TriBeCa99> is it f6 to get the grub menu?
[18:33] <natschil> usr13: fdisk -l shows me sda1,sda2,sda5,sda7 as windows partitions, sda7 as swap and sda8  and 9 as "Linux partitions".... it also shows sdb1 as fat32
[18:33] <TriBeCa99> apparently not
[18:33] <crimsonking> I updated ubuntu to 12.04 on a dual boot on a lenovo G560 and the wireless now does not work in windows 7, but only in ubuntu
[18:33] <crimsonking> any ideas?
[18:33] <minimec> TriBeCa99: left<shift> button after your BIOS boot screen.
[18:33] <TriBeCa99> i'm not getting a grub loader menu during the boot cycle
[18:33] <natschil> usr13: sorry I can't paste the output, as im running this irc on the other computer
[18:33] <TriBeCa99> minimec ty
[18:34] <wilee-nilee> natschil, run this first for getting the boot script eventually. sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo apt-get install boot_info_script
[18:34] <erictr1ck> minimec: thanks for pointing that out. have you had any issues after updating the kernel?
[18:34] <quick-> amokpaule:  You can do a reverser search to get the cmd or make an alias
[18:35] <kashminder> how can i install themes in ubuntu
[18:35] <kashminder> ??
[18:35] <wilee-nilee> natschil, then this sudo boot_info_script | pastebinit    then post the http address you get
[18:35] <quick-> amokpaule:  reverse search not reverser search
[18:35] <sarsaeol> kashminder: usually you just put the theme package into your /home/.themes and it will show up in the appearance menus
[18:35] <leehambley> is there any way to "restore" /usr/bin/sv - I've accidentally removed it (well, bad Chef recipe)
[18:36] <leehambley> it was symlinked to /etc/init.d/nginx
[18:36] <sarsaeol> kashminder: beyond that im not sure
[18:36] <wilee-nilee> natschil, if you are still in root with a chroot I don't think you are since you rebooted, sudo is not needed in root.
[18:36] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:36] <natschil> wilee-nilee: sure. What would you be looking for in whatever fdisk -l returns? my theory is that there is some sort of "restore" functionality somewhere that "restores" the mbr to what windows wants it to be
[18:36] <loganrun> i just plugged in two hard drives into a computer. the two hard drives are a raid 1 array. I am booting from a third hard drive. How do I mount the raid array. There is no /dev/md0. I tried mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1, but it says  /dev/sdb1 appears to be part of a raid array and askes me if I want to continue. not sure what to do
[18:36] <leehambley> (ahh, got it, reinstalling runit)
[18:36] <wilee-nilee> natschil, fdisk wont help
[18:36] <minimec> erictr1ck: I am testing two kernels. The 3.4 kernel from the ubuntu kernel mainline repo, and the 3.2.27-44 kernel from ubuntu kernel pre proposed ppa. The 3.4 kernel gives me some USB3 issues. 3.2.27-44 is working ok.
[18:37] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:37] <quick-> kashminder:  check out this http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-install-gnome-themes-in-ubuntu-11-10-tip/
[18:37] <wilee-nilee> natschil, your theory only gets in the way of helping by the way. ;)
[18:38] <minimec> erictr1ck: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/pre-proposed/
[18:38] <wilee-nilee> natschil, I hope that on a alternative that the two apps the pastebinit and bootscript will down load this would be easier from a live cd with a desktop.
[18:39] <usr13> natschil: Sorry, but would need to know which it is, sda8 or sda9  (One may be /  and the other may be /home but I don't know, only you can tell.)
[18:39] <Areckx> usr13::  SUCCESS!!
[18:39] <ryzzan> anyone knows a server with javascript channel?
[18:39] <ryzzan> =X
[18:39] <natschil> wilee-nilee: not if the theory were correct. I found nothing supporting it though yet
[18:39] <Areckx> usr13::  thank you so much for your help, it kept my brain from screaming
[18:39] <natschil> usr13: my root partition is sda9
[18:39] <usr13> Areckx: How did you fix it?
[18:40] <wilee-nilee> natschil, is this a msdos partitioning set up not another
[18:40] <usr13> natschil: Then you should be able to designate it as root partition in the rescue mode and then re-install grub to the MBR
[18:40] <Areckx> usr13::  Exactly what I mentioned, I had to remove openssh on my iphone, delete the folder with ssh keys [/etc/.ssh] restart, and reinstall openssh, it was all iphone side
[18:41] <erictr1ck> minimec: thanks! bookmarked it and am going to order up my new ai7 machine :)
[18:41] <natschil> usr13: wilee-nilee: I just noticed an error message "prefix is not set" pop up a moment before the livecd bootloader starts. It might be related.(well probably it is)
[18:41] <usr13> Areckx: Ok, good.
[18:41] <usr13> natschil: You might just re-install
[18:41] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:41] <ryzzan> anyone knows an irc server with javascript channel?
[18:42] <greenthumb5> I'm trying to get GSL to run on ubuntu. I installed the package via apt-get, and then ran $ gcc test.c -lgsl. I get all kinds of weird errors, though: http://pastebin.com/x0wDF523
[18:42] <erictr1ck> minimec: do you think the problem would still happen if i used a pci graphics card instead of the onboard one?
[18:42] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:42] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:42] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:42] <kashminder> sarsaeol: its not working
[18:42] <bikcmp> ryzzan: #javascript
[18:42] <natschil> usr13: nope, that error message is from the alternate installer, removing the usb stick I'm booting from gets rid of it.
[18:42] <bikcmp> well, ##javascript
[18:42] <greenthumb5> am I linking it wrong, or what?
[18:42] <wilee-nilee> natschil, Try hitting f6 at the live cd menu and pick nomodeset and boot in.
[18:42] <kashminder> how to install themes in ubuntu?
[18:42] <natschil> usr13: I doubt that that will help, as reinstalling the bootloader does nothing at all to help.

[18:43] <minimec> erictr1ck: I am not sure, but it seems that the bug is related to memory allocation of the intenal HD400 GPU. So probably an additional GPU would solve the problem.
[18:43] <wilee-nilee> !ops | kashminder
[18:43] <natschil> wilee-nilee: how is this related to graphic drivers in any way? grub doesn't need graphics drivers, and I'm able to chroot into the root directory fine.

[18:46] <wilee-nilee> natschil, if you have an extra disc or a usb supergrub should get you in to the install to load grub to the mbr from there as well, about the easiest method. This is a tiny download. http://www.supergrubdisk.org/super-grub2-disk/

[18:48] <wilee-nilee> Freeaqingme, hehe actually please don't spam. ;)
[18:49] <attaroot> Regarding gedit is it difficult to work with that?
[18:49] <natschil_> usr13: wilee-nilee: It seems that some sort of recovery program *is* overwriting the mbr, due to the fact that I get the option of whether to boot a "startup help" or not a "startup help" only after I have just installed grub. Hence, it knows that the mbr has been changed, meaning it must have installed grub successfuly.
[18:49] <Freeaqingme> wilee-nilee, I will try even harder ;)
[18:50] <wilee-nilee> natschil_, So what is this recovery program you imagine is it windows based or linux?
[18:51] <natschil_> wilee-nilee: well obviously neither, as it needs to be executed before either windows or linux does. Hence probably it's in the bios
[18:51] <natschil_> wilee-nilee: if it exists
[18:52] <wilee-nilee> natschil_, Here is where we just have problems with helping, if I have to work against your imagination it is a waste of both of our times.  If you could show some prof I would take it seriously.
