[00:00] <osirisx11> ntzrmtthihu777: purged and reinstalled many times.
[00:00] <Jordan_U> jonascj: Ubuntu never creates "512 byte" partitions, but I guess you're talking about the installer creating an ~ 1 MiB BIOS Boot Partition since you're using a large disk which requires GPT. That BIOS Boot Partition is the embedding area, where grub's core.img is stored.
[00:00] <histo> osirisx11: the skype page ubottu sent to you explains it
[00:02] <osirisx11> histo: i ran add-arch and it didn't change anything
[00:02] <osirisx11> and i have installed from the partner repo
[00:02] <histo> osirisx11: I believe you will ned ia32-libs
[00:03] <osirisx11> histo: i have installed and reinstalled that many times
[00:03] <histo> osirisx11: sudo apt-get purge skype && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype
[00:03] <histo> osirisx11: btw does skype work without this library?
[00:03] <osirisx11> histo: sorry?
[00:04] <histo> osirisx11: Is skype currently working?
[00:04] <osirisx11> no
[00:04] <osirisx11> fatal error
[00:04] <jonascj> Jordan_U: I'm just pretty sure that during install (fooling around with LVM on raid1) LVM reported something 512 something (bytes, kb, mb) which was unusable to create a volume group on. I'll closer if I redo the setup at some point.
[00:04] <osirisx11> i ran  sudo apt-get purge skype && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype - no change
[00:04] <osirisx11> it is related to libgl and not skype
[00:05] <veryhappy> hey guys, something really has to be messed up in my system cause since a few days my network manager is not running automatically anymore. every time i start up the system the network manager panel says "network-manager not working - please start it"
[00:05] <veryhappy> how can i get it to run automatically again?
[00:07] <elisa87> I don't know how to fix this: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: locales is broken or not fully installed
[00:08] <veryhappy> elisa87: your system seems to have a problem with the locales on your system, perhaps it should be regenerated.
[00:09] <elisa87> veryhappy: What should be regenerated and how?
[00:09] <g_byers> Correct me if i'm wrong, but you can't dual-boot with uefi?
[00:11] <veryhappy> elisa87: pardon my mistake, locales always should be installed. but it depends on what you did before that the locales perhaps were removed.
[00:13] <elisa87> veryhappy: http://pastebin.com/BDiA1HzN
[00:16] <veryhappy> elisa87: look, it always tells you where the error appears: dependency problems prevent configuration of locales, you always have to look also in the previous lines, the lines down below are most times just consequential errors
[00:18] <bvangennip> Just curious does anyone know what the acronym PuTTY stands for /
[00:18] <bvangennip> ?
[00:19] <bvangennip> =)
[00:19] <chloe> How do I make a selection of any shape 50% translucent over top of the rest of the image in GIMP
[00:19] <MonkeyDust> tty is a terminal screen => "put tty", i guess
[00:21] <bvangennip> thanks MonkeyDust, someone just asked i didnt know.
[00:21] <veryhappy> chloe: "PuTTY" has no meaning[1], though 'tty' is sometimes used to refer to the Unix terminals, as an acronym for 'teletype'. http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY
[00:21] <veryhappy> sorry
[00:22] <veryhappy> bvangennip: http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY
[00:22] <veryhappy> bvangennip: PuTTY" has no meaning[1], though 'tty' is sometimes used to refer to the Unix terminals, as an acronym for 'teletype'. http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY
[00:23] <veryhappy> does someone know how to get network-manager (the service) to start automatically/
[00:29] <bvangennip> thx veryhappy :)
[00:35] <Fenb> where should i add my user in sudoers.tmp? wheel or root?
[00:37] <th0r> Fenb: sudoers.tmp? I think maybe you are doing it wrong
[00:38] <Fenb> th0r:i did EDITOR=nano visudo
[00:38] <MonkeyDust> Fenb  use visudo
[00:38] <MonkeyDust> Fenb  no, type sudo visudo
[00:40] <Fenb> MonkeyDust: What?
[00:41] <Fenb> MonkeyDust: Do you know which wheel or under root?
[00:42] <heikoo> why is installing grub2 to a partition instead of the mbr "a BAD idea"?
[00:42] <Fenb> heikoo: efistub is recommended
[00:42] <MonkeyDust> Fenb  not sure what you mean by "wheel" and "under root"
[00:43] <th0r> Fenb: you are misunderstanding the construct of the file. Wheel is a group, and root is a user, if I remember correctly
[00:44] <th0r> Fenb: and both are in the file as examples, I believe
[00:44] <Jordan_U> Fenb: efistub has nothing to do with installing grub's boot sector to a partition ([U]EFI doesn't even have boot sectors).
[00:45] <Fenb> Jordan_U: i thought he/she wast installing bootloader for uefi :)
[00:45] <Jordan_U> heikoo: Because extN doesn't have a space reserved for an embedding area, so when installing grub's boot sector to a partition blocklists need to be used that are pointing to blocks on an active fileystem, and that is unreliable (and insecure). Also, the MBR is what your BIOS loads, so that is where the bootloader should be.
[00:45] <Fenb> Jordan_U: sorry notice now.
[00:46] <Jordan_U> heikoo: BTW, what I just said is equally true for any BIOS based bootloader, not just grub.
[00:46] <Fenb> th0r: i dont know wheather i should use wheel or just put in under where root is placed? :S
[00:46] <heikoo> Jordan_U: ok, thank you
[00:46] <Jordan_U> heikoo: You're welcome.
[00:48] <gary> guys i have a question! new to ubuntu
[00:48] <Guest50977> help please!
[00:48] <bvangennip> hi gary
[00:49] <Guest50977> hi can you help me install the program wine I tried lots of stuff
[00:52] <Guest50977> how do i add someone as a friend on here
[00:53] <Guest50977> someone help me please!
[00:54] <c|oneman> how would I go about finding the source code ping.c, and compiling it for MIPS
[00:54] <msdaisy> lol there are no friends on irc. join the forum for that. ubuntuforums.org Guest50977
[00:54] <Guest50977> what do you mean no friends?
[00:54] <Guest50977> i need real time help here
[00:54] <Guest50977> im a newbie to ubuntu
[00:54] <Jordan_U> c|oneman: What is your end goal?
[00:55] <c|oneman> to get a full ping utility running my router
[00:55] <Guest50977> i want to get wine running on my ubuntu 12.04
[00:55] <c|oneman> rather than busybox version
[00:55] <th0r> Guest50977: sudo apt-get install wine
[00:55] <pixlepix> Is there a way to dual boot ubuntu and osx using bootcamp
[00:56] <Guest50977> i tried that it says i dont have wine
[00:56] <pixlepix> Without the use of a usb drive or a disk
[00:57] <MonkeyDust> Guest50977  wine is i t
[00:57] <Guest50977> gary@localhost:~$ sudo apt-get install wine

[00:57] <Guest50977> Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[00:57] <MonkeyDust> Guest50977  wine is in the repos
[00:57] <MonkeyDust> Guest50977  what ubuntu version?
[00:57] <Ari-Yang> sudo apt-get install wine1.4
[00:57] <Ari-Yang> ^ that's what you'd type
[00:58] <th0r> !wine
[00:58] <pixlepix_> Sorry, my internet borked out
[00:58] <pixlepix> Any replies?
[00:58] <Jordan_U> pixlepix: Don't use the bootcamp utility.  It's probably possible to install Ubuntu without any external media, but I doubt it's worth the effort it would require. Why can't you grab a blank DVD or a cheap flash drive?
[00:58] <Guest50977> Package wine1.4 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[00:58] <Guest50977> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[00:58] <Guest50977> is only available from another source
[00:58] <Ari-Yang> Guest50977, you have to add the PPA
[00:59] <Guest50977> i added the wineteam ppz
[00:59] <Guest50977> ppa
[00:59] <Ari-Yang> why do you want wine anyway? what windows program are you using?
[00:59] <Guest50977> what is the correct ppa
[00:59] <Guest50977> i want to play madden and nba on my computer
[00:59] <Guest50977> i am using a chromebook i put ubuntu on it
[00:59] <Ari-Yang> Guest50977,  ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa that ppa
[00:59] <Ari-Yang> then sudo apt-get install wine1.4
[01:00] <pixlepix> So I don't have to carry around a clunky usb drive?
[01:00] <Guest50977> ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa that ppa
[01:00] <MonkeyDust> Guest50977  what ubuntu version?
[01:00] <Ari-Yang> ...yes
[01:00] <Ari-Yang> MonkeyDust, does it matter?
[01:00] <Guest50977> i started off with xfce4 then i downloaded ubuntu 12.04
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> wine will install the appropriate version.
[01:01] <MonkeyDust> Ari-Yang  why is wine not in his repos?
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> MonkeyDust, he has to /add/ the PPA
[01:01] <Guest50977> what ppa should I put
[01:01] <Guest50977> i tried a bunch of ppa
[01:01] <kostkon> Guest50977, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine1.5
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> no
[01:01] <Jordan_U> pixlepix: Ahh, I thought you meant that you wanted to install Ubuntu without using external media, not that you just wanted to install Ubuntu in a normal dual boot configuration.
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> not 1.5
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> 1.5 is beta
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> go for 1.4
[01:01] <FloodBot1> Ari-Yang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:01] <Ari-Yang> Guest50977, try sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install wine1.4
[01:02] <kostkon> Ari-Yang, 1.5 will become stable 1.6 soon
[01:02] <kostkon> Ari-Yang, so it's ok
[01:02] <Ari-Yang> oh.... well Guest50977 just don't forget sudo apt-get update after adding the ppa
[01:02] <Guest50977> W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/Ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found

[01:03] <pixlepix> Jordan_U: So.. Would http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx not require the usb drive once the installation is over?
[01:03] <Jordan_U> pixlepix: Correct.
[01:03] <Ari-Yang> Guest50977, I say remove all of those PPAs of WINE you added. then add the one I gave you, proceed with apt-get update, then apt-get install wine1.5
[01:03] <kostkon> Guest50977, oh you are on a chromebook
[01:03] <Jordan_U> pixlepix: (The USB drive is only required during installation)
[01:03] <Guest50977> when i update ppa it says translation a lot then at the bottom i have like 5 things that say 404
[01:03] <Guest50977> how do i remove them
[01:04] <Platz> does chromebook performance ever feel too sluggish?
[01:04] <Platz> thinking about getting one
[01:04] <Guest50977> im using chromebook is that why i cant install wine
[01:04] <Ari-Yang> google it, it will give you the command, Guest50977. or go to software sources and remove it from there
[01:04] <Ari-Yang> no it's not, Guest50977
[01:04] <elisa87> Is there any way for solving this problem? The following packages have unmet dependencies:  libc6 : Breaks: locales (< 2.17)
[01:04] <Guest50977> im using the terminal
[01:05] <Ari-Yang> Guest50977, then just google the command
[01:05] <Guest50977> so go to the software center and remove my ppa's for wine?
[01:05] <Ari-Yang> you'll find it easily... "how to remove ppa via terminal ubuntu"
[01:06] <Jordan_U> elisa87: Were you installing packages from a ppa or otherwise not using the standard repositories?
[01:06] <Guest50977> i tried a bunch of different repositories! hoping one would work
[01:07] <Guest50977> sudo apt-add-repository --remove ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
[01:07] <elisa87> Jordan_U: once I added this line to my sources.list because of installing some deb packages: deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main
[01:07] <pixlepix> Just to confirm: The USB install wouldn't harm files already on the usb drive?
[01:07] <Guest50977> i tried that
[01:07] <elisa87> Guest50977: are you talking with me?
[01:07] <Guest50977> im talking to whoever was helping me
[01:08] <Jordan_U> elisa87: You should never do that. Ubuntu is not debian and you cannot use Debian's repositories with it. You will likely need to re-install Ubuntu to fix this.
[01:08] <Guest50977> how do i reinstall ubunti from scratch so i can download wine!
[01:08] <Guest50977> on chromebook
[01:09] <kostkon> Guest50977, that particular (albeit, the official one) ppa doesn't provide packages for arm, neither the repos
[01:09] <elisa87> Jordan_U:  can I re-install Ubuntu without touching the simulators I have installed?
[01:09] <Guest50977> so what do i use for arm
[01:09] <kostkon> Guest50977, i googled and couldn't find any ppa having wine packages for arm
[01:09] <PoolShark_1> I think Ubuntu has an option for preserving a partition and installing on top
[01:09] <Guest50977> whats so different about wine
[01:09] <Guest50977> i mean arm
[01:09] <Guest50977> what is arm vs anything else
[01:10] <elisa87> Jordan_U: or is there any other tricky way for not reinstalling Ubuntu?
[01:10] <kostkon> Guest50977, it mainly runs i386 software, a totally different architecture
[01:10] <kostkon> or better, x86 software*
[01:10] <Guest50977> i think i saw a wine i386
[01:10] <kostkon> Guest50977, yes, for 32bit x86 intel amd cpus
[01:10] <Guest50977> i have 32bit
[01:11] <kostkon> Guest50977, a 32bit arm cpu, not x86
[01:11] <Guest50977> so wine wont work with samsung chromebook/.
[01:11] <Guest50977> ??
[01:11] <msdaisy> elisa87: I guess you could roll back to a previous linux version.
[01:12] <Guest50977> how can i make windows programs run on my chromebook with ubunti
[01:12] <Guest50977> ubuntu
[01:12] <elisa87> msdaisy: how can I do that and to which version should I roll back?
[01:12] <lujiahao> morning
[01:12] <msdaisy> elisa87: but that would probably remove your simulators
[01:13] <elisa87> msdaisy: is there any way for not removing my simulators? It
[01:14] <kostkon> Guest50977, not atm, maybe in a few months time. keep the ppa, it will eventually provide packages for arm
[01:15] <msdaisy> elisa87: your current problem is the unmet dependencies?
[01:15] <Guest50977> ok thank you guys for your help!
[01:15] <Guest50977> any good sports games on ununtu I can download and play for free
[01:16] <msdaisy> !games
[01:16] <Guest50977> at least i can stop looking to install wine now that I know it doesnt exist for arm
[01:17] <Guest50977> and thank you ubottu!
[01:17] <msdaisy> Guest50977: it says "you're welcome" ;)
[01:18] <Guest50977> is it a bot!?
[01:18] <msdaisy> yup
[01:19] <Guest50977> how did it know what I was asking
[01:19] <msdaisy> i called it with the ! Guest50977
[01:20] <msdaisy> or it's magic. one or the other :)
[01:20] <Guest50977> mmmm
[01:20] <pixle> Hey, its me again
[01:20] <Guest50977> hi pixle!
[01:20] <pixle> I'm at the partition screen
[01:21] <pixle> And I'm a bit stuck
[01:21] <pixle> I want to give Ubuntu some space on my existing harddrive
[01:21] <pixle> How would I do that
[01:21] <chenx97> use gpartedc
[01:22] <chenx97> use gparted
[01:22] <veryhappy> pixle: do you want to use a graphical or a text mode program?
[01:22] <pixle> Already in the installation gui
[01:22] <pixle> If that's what you mean
[01:24] <veryhappy> pixle: no that's not what i mean, there's a graphical mode and a text mode if you only see text instead of graphical buttons or something else
[01:24] <Guest50977> is codega available on 32 bit arm on ubtuntu chromebook
[01:24] <pixle> Graphical mode then :)
[01:25] <veryhappy> pixle: good. and you don't know how to create your partitions?
[01:25] <pixle> I THINK I already created one with boot camp assistant
[01:25] <Guest50977> how does QEMU work? is it easy to use
[01:26] <veryhappy> pixle: so you're using apple?
[01:27] <chenx97> oh mac...
[01:27] <pixle> Yes
[01:27] <pixle> Sorry if I didn't mention that :)
[01:27] <veryhappy> pixle: that would have been nice to know
[01:28] <terretz> Dumb question:  I just downloaded and installed a .deb file
[01:28] <terretz> where does it install to by default?
[01:28] <kostkon> Guest50977, in terminal:  apt-cache policy qemu && apt-cache policy qemulator. you will need a copy of windows. qemulator is a gui for managing qemu
[01:29] <snkmad> i want to backup my kernel before upgrading to 3.8, linux-headers-3.2.0-33, linux-headers-3.2.0-33-generic and linux-image-3.2.0-33-generic. Where those files are located?
[01:30] <kostkon> Guest50977, even if it is available, and you manage to create a x86 system and manage to install windows, it is going to be unbearably slow
[01:30] <veryhappy> terretz: should be /usr/
[01:30] <th0r> terretz: find the program you just installed in synaptic, right click on it, choose Properties-Installed Files
[01:30] <terretz> sorry - what's synaptic?
[01:31] <MonkeyDust> snkmad  12.04 ?
[01:31] <veryhappy> !synaptic
[01:32] <terretz> danke
[01:32] <chenx97> veryhappy: i know how to use ubottu now... this example is great :-)
[01:32] <veryhappy> terretz: please use english here
[01:33] <snkmad> MonkeyDust, yes
[01:34] <terretz> and I'm assuming synaptic installs into /usr ?
[01:35] <th0r> terretz: a deb file normally contains more than one file. There is a file architecture, so where a file goes on the hard drive depends on what it is
[01:35] <snkmad> MonkeyDust, yes i'm using 12.04
[01:35] <veryhappy> terretz: for a game like flightgear for example it would choose the path /usr/games/
[01:36] <terretz> i downloaded Plex and installed it using dpkg
[01:37] <terretz> I see a synaptic-pkexec in /usr/bin
[01:37] <chenx97> terretz: i think the softwares go to /usr/bin and the libraries go to /usr/lib. but there are exceptions
[01:37] <veryhappy> take care guys, i'm off
[01:38] <terretz> thanks veryhappy
[01:38] <veryhappy> no problem, really
[01:38] <chenx97> bye. thanks for your example of using bots
[01:40] <EyePulp> so I just created an upstart script @ /etc/init.d/foo     when I run sudo start foo, I get   env: /etc/init.d/foo: No such file or directory
[01:40] <EyePulp> the file is there, and it's chmod 777 just to make sure it's accessible
[01:41] <EyePulp> what am I screwing up?
[01:42] <snkmad> I run Ubuntu 12.04 and i want to backup my kernel before upgrading to 3.8, linux-headers-3.2.0-33, linux-headers-3.2.0-33-generic and linux-image-3.2.0-33-generic. Where those files are located?
[01:44] <th0r> snkmad: if it is done correctly adding a new kernel does not overwrite the existing ones. The only changes are a few links that point to whatever kernel is active. (if it is done correctly)
[01:45] <SuperLag> Thunar doesn't have a split view so you can copy a file from one folder to another. I ended up using FileZilla, and just doing "ssh <IP_ADDRESS>" #improvising
[01:46] <snkmad> th0r, thanks
[01:46] <th0r> snkmad: for an example...check /vmlinuz
[01:52] <snkmad> th0r, ok i installed linux-generic-lts-raring fine, gonna reboot and brb
[01:55] <FoShizz> hello guys!
[01:55] <FoShizz> i need a bit of help
[01:56] <th0r> FoShizz: I have some answers. I wonder if my answers match your questions
[01:56] <snkmad> th0r, all fine
[01:57] <FoShizz> i can't log in as the main account. everytime i put my password in my screen flashes  and it goes back to the login screen. i can log in as guest though, but im unable to use sudo. i can log in to my main in cli though. any ideas?
[01:57] <Shinobi> I have no sound in 12.04
[01:57] <th0r> snkmad: if at some point you need to revert to the older kernel you just need to change a few links. There are some good guides on how to do that if you run into that
[01:58] <snkmad> hum looks like now i need the kernel headers to use vmware workstation
[01:58] <kostkon> snkmad, you can install the whole raring stack i think https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[01:59] <elisa87>  I have successfully installed libvirt-bin but I don't know which other packs does this http://blog.johngoulah.com/2013/01/building-your-own-cloud/ tutorial want from http://paste.ubuntu.com/5743748/
[02:00] <snkmad> how can i install the Kernel Headers 3.8.0-23-generic?
[02:02] <chenx97> once up on a time i couldnt login to any desktop environment(i have 3) on my own pc and guest account didnt work either. it was Ubuntu 12.10 and then i started to use another distro. my dad's Ubuntu 12.04 has no such problem at all.
[02:02] <inflex> anyone know how to force linux to always mount a specific ata port to a specific mount point, ie   ata5 -> /media/foo   (it's an eSATA hotswap device)
[02:04] <chenx97> inflex, i will edit /etc/fstab
[02:05] <inflex> chenx97: the trouble is that you don't know what the drive on ata5 will get mapped to in terms of /dev/sdX
[02:05] <inflex> chenx97: and the UUID will be different when the drives are swapped
[02:05] <chenx97> oh...
[02:07] <inflex> chenx97: actually, I think I found a way... I'll hard-code the UUID of the drive
[02:08] <chenx97> sounds okay
[02:08] <Shinobi> how do i get the sound working in 12.04
[02:10] <webnet> hey all quick question. i have a machine on which the fan works fine, however when i boot ubuntu i get an error that displays "System Fan Has Failed." and the boot process will not continue. how do i supress this error and ignore it so that ubuntu will contiinue to boot?
[02:11] <TKing> i am running a lenovo which has 1tb hdd and 32gb ssd, i created partision for ubuntu after installing it, i saw about 6 drives total from ubuntu, going back to windows i i saw 2 more drives added to the previous two how can i fix this?
[02:12] <vasl> hi all! first IRC message :)
[02:12] <Ari-Yang> vasl, go to #ubuntu-offtopic to speak off topic
[02:12] <soy_el_pulpo> welcome
[02:12] <atrius`> lol... something ironic in that sort of greeting
[02:12] <x_> first message and he gets lectured
[02:12] <x_> calm down ari thx
[02:12] <atrius`> x_: exactly
[02:13] <Ari-Yang> x_, I am calm lol was just suggesting the channel to him
[02:13] <soy_el_pulpo> painful first time...
[02:13] <chenx97> oh i think i have known another good channel
[02:13] <chenx97> ...
[02:14] <x_> so a dude can't even say hi if it isn't in offtopic ?
[02:14] <x_>  /end rant
[02:14] <TKing> i am running a lenovo which has 1tb hdd and 32gb ssd, i created partision for ubuntu after installing it, i saw about 6 drives total from ubuntu, going back to windows i i saw 2 more drives added to the previous two how can i fix this?
[02:14] <Ari-Yang> x_, I didn't say that, you did
[02:14] <Ari-Yang> /done responding cuz this is kind of off topic
[02:14] <webnet> anyone?
[02:15] <SonikkuAmerica> !anyone | we
[02:15] <SonikkuAmerica> !anyone | webnet
[02:15] <webnet> SonikkuAmerica: i did ask my question 10 minutes ago and got no reply. hence my "anyone?"
[02:16] <SonikkuAmerica> webnet: I wasn't here 10 minutes ago.
[02:16] <webnet> then ill re post
[02:16] <gary> hi guys
[02:16] <webnet> hey all quick question. i have a machine on which the fan works fine, however when i boot ubuntu i get an error that displays "System Fan Has Failed." and the boot process will not continue. how do i supress this error and ignore it so that ubuntu will contiinue to boot??
[02:16] <chenx97> sorry but i havent ever met a machine like that
[02:17] <SonikkuAmerica> webnet: Check to see if the fan is properly connected, then check your BIOS.
[02:17] <msdaisy> webnet: have you successfully booted from a live cd?
[02:17] <Shinobi> where is the pulse audio volume?
[02:17] <terretz> sweet!  am now running a plex server!
[02:17] <terretz> woo!
[02:17] <chenx97> congratulations
[02:18] <terretz> :D
[02:18] <webnet> SonikkuAmerica: have and reseated the fan connecter several times. even tried switching with multiple fans etc. msdaisy no
[02:18] <terretz> just installed the app on my TV
[02:18] <terretz> so much better than running a dlna server
[02:18] <atrius`> did they ever come out with a Plex client for Linux?
[02:18] <terretz> they did
[02:19] <msdaisy> webnet: you're probably getting the error because your hardware isn't supported out of the box. google "ubuntu supported hardware" and go from there.
[02:19] <terretz> http://www.plexapp.com/getplex/
[02:19] <atrius`> interesting
[02:19] <atrius`> thanks
[02:19] <terretz> they have one specifically for ubuntu
[02:20] <webnet> msdaisy: it booted fine and installed server edition and have been using it for a while. it just recently started having this issue.
[02:21] <msdaisy> webnet: hmm. perhaps a recent update broke a driver.
[02:21] <Guest43791> ms daisy is the shit
[02:21] <atrius`> terretz: how does plex compared to XBMC?
[02:21] <webnet> msdaisy: no updates have been installed.
[02:21] <webnet> i think its a motherboard issue of it not detecting the fan
[02:21] <webnet> thats why im wondering if there is a way to bypass the hardware checks so it can boot
[02:22] <msdaisy> webnet: if it's only happening in ubuntu then its a driver.
[02:23] <th0r> webnet: I think there is a noacpi or noapm that you can add to the grub line....but it has been a long time since I messed with it
[02:23] <inflex> chenx97: only downside of the UUID hard coding is that I can't tell explicitly from the system which edition of the drive is in there, but I suppose I can just write a small ID file on the filesystem itself
[02:23] <terretz> atrius`, I've never run XBMC
[02:23] <inflex> chenx97: ( this is all for a rotating backup )
[02:23] <atrius`> ah, okay
[02:23] <webnet> msdaisy: it doesnt boot anything from live even windoze installer
[02:23] <terretz> atrius`, so I can't really compare the two
[02:24] <terretz> atrius`, I only knew about dlna until 5 hours ago
[02:24] <webnet> th0r: any idea what i can add where?
[02:24] <inflex> chenx97: oooof, just realised, I'll put multiple entries in /etc/fstab, for each drive, but all mount to the same point... that'll work so long as I don't put more than one in ;)
[02:24] <webnet> lol ill google it but if you can remember anything specific i would love to give it a shot
[02:25] <terretz> might actually be time for a dyndns account
[02:25] <th0r> webnet: been a long time....I think if you hold the shift while booting you will drop to a grub line where you can just type 'noacpi' or 'noapm'...I would suspect the former is the right one....but not usre
[02:25] <th0r> s/usre/sure
[02:29] <Campfire> i,m on xchat trying to change servers
[02:29] <Campfire> will the the bot boot me if i do so
[02:30] <Campfire> ben64 you around
[02:30] <SonikkuAmerica> Campfire: Not if you use /newserver <servername> <port>
[02:30] <webnet> th0r: ok will try it! thanks!
[02:31] <Campfire> ty sonik
[02:33] <Campfire> is off topic ubuntu still up
[02:33] <Campfire> trying to go by the rules i have some offtopic stuff
[02:35] <Campfire> ty for help
[02:39] <drmaster> hi there, i need a help pls, how can i check if i have my gpu driver working properly? ive 13.04 version
[02:41] <drmaster> ?
[02:43] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Well...
[02:43] <SonikkuAmerica> How did you install it?
[02:45] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, simple, burned on a dvd disc and installed through startup mode
[02:45] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: No, the driver! :)
[02:46] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, oh lolL) i dont have any driver installed, ive been told i dont need one, but im sure i need to install gpu driver or do smth about it, cuz my system doesnt work smooth n im sure this is gpu driver matter since i got ati radeon gpu(
[02:46] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: See if you can get something called "fglrx"
[02:47] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica,  should i try search it in software center or in repos? im srry im rookie to linux, in fact i have it for an hour already)
[02:48] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Start in Additional Drivers (inside Software Sources or Software and Updates)
[02:49] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica,  i did go over there in additional drivers n it says "no proprietary drivers are in use"
[02:49] <SonikkuAmerica> OK. Check using Synaptic Package Manager then (unless you're using Kubuntu, in which you should use Muon instead)
[02:49] <lernr> Hey everyone - I need gwibber 3.4.2 to sync with my facebook account. I can add the account, but after authorizing it gives a message saying Success - and doesn't have the account in account lists... How do I fix..?
[02:50] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: If you're using Unity, run [ sudo apt-get install synaptic ] in a !terminal first.
[02:50] <SonikkuAmerica> lernr: 12.04?
[02:50] <zykotick9> inflex: using LABELS is way easier then UUIDs, great for fstab
[02:51] <elisa87> Why pacstrap: command not found ??? I can't find a guide for installing it!
[02:51] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, too much info:) i guess its unity one, i have my taskbar on left and i dont have synaptic package manager should i do exact the same way as u told?
[02:52] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Yeah
[02:52] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, thanks:) let me try it
[02:53] <lernr> SonikkuAmerica: opensuse 12.3
[02:53] <SonikkuAmerica> lernr: Wrong channel
[02:53] <SonikkuAmerica> !opensuse | lernr
[02:53] <SonikkuAmerica> lernr: /join #opensuse
[02:54] <Cave> Hello
[02:54] <SonikkuAmerica> Cave: Yo
[02:54] <lernr> SonikkuAmerica: Thanks.
[02:54] <SonikkuAmerica> That was fast... (Cave)
[02:54] <Cave_Johnson> Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am?  With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon
[02:55] <bazhang> Cave_Johnson, wrong channel
[02:56] <drmaster> cave lol i remembered smth off ur words, go youtube n search meth vs marijuanna )
[02:56] <SonikkuAmerica> Ironically enough, he didn't say anything about what to do if you bought a lemon (as in a dud vehicle). :P (!ot)
[02:59] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, bro i just downloaded that synaptic thing, what should i do then?
[02:59] <SonikkuAmerica> Start it and search it for fglrx
[02:59] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, sry for murdering ur time but i do really want to get this working man
[02:59] <qin> This do make sens.
[02:59] <drmaster> thx:)
[02:59] <FoShizz> i can't log in as the main account. everytime i put my password in my screen flashes  and it goes back to the login screen. i can log in as guest though, but im unable to use sudo. i can log in to my main in cli though. any ideas?
[02:59] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: lightdm?
[03:00] <FoShizz> what's that?
[03:00] <qin> FoShizz: df -h; look for 100%
[03:00] <SonikkuAmerica> !lightdm FoShizz
[03:00] <SonikkuAmerica> !lightdm | FoShizz
[03:00] <FoShizz> actually i think i fixed it
[03:00] <SonikkuAmerica> !ping
[03:00] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, found some of them, i need to install all of them>
[03:01] <FoShizz> i did sudo rm ~/.Xauthority
[03:01] <FoShizz> weird
[03:01] <jimmy51_> i've got a PXE/TFTP server serving up ubuntu liveCD via NFS.  when my system has more than 1 NIC, it seems initrd doesn't figure out which NIC is plugged in.  it will hang waiting for a network connection (even though one of the NICs is connected and has an address).
[03:01] <jimmy51_> is there a way to force it to find the active NIC and use it?
[03:01] <FoShizz> does anyone know how to use x11vnc?
[03:01] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: Usually nuking the .Xauthority will work
[03:01] <FoShizz> yea im going to remember that
[03:02] <FoShizz> im just trying to get vnc to worl :(
[03:02] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, found some of them, i need to install all of them? there are few of them im not sure which i need to install
[03:03] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Is there a single package called fglrx? If so, mark it for installation. (It'll pull in anything else it needs.(
[03:03] <SonikkuAmerica> *)
[03:03] <jimmy51_> Foshizz: i had that issue today
[03:03] <jimmy51_> (the flash and logout for every user but guest)
[03:03] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: What are you trying to VNC to?
[03:03] <FoShizz> the login issue? or not being able to get vnc?
[03:03] <jimmy51_> foShizz: login issue
[03:04] <FoShizz> ive got my main machine trying to control another jerry rigged computer i fixed up
[03:04] <jimmy51_> FoShizz:  i had accidentally ran update-initramfs -u without having chrooted into the one i was trying to update
[03:04] <jimmy51_> updated my own on accident
[03:04] <FoShizz> im so new to linux. i have no idea what im doing.
[03:05] <jimmy51_> at least i think that was the problem.  did you happen to update your initramfs before that problem happened?
[03:05] <FoShizz> i only know the basic terminal commands because i used teminal on my ipod
[03:05] <jimmy51_> FoShizz:  well, did your login work before?  and if so, what did you do in the time between it working and not?
[03:05] <FoShizz> no jimmy i was trying to get x11vnc to work.
[03:05] <FoShizz> i was able to fix it so now im good
[03:06] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, i did check the fglrx one and it marked the rest itself, but when its about to install it says Please insert the disk labeled:
[03:06] <drmaster> Ubuntu 13.04 _Raring Ringtail_ - Release i386 (20130424)
[03:06] <drmaster> in drive /media/cdrom/
[03:06] <jimmy51_> FoShizz: ah, ok.
[03:06] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Is your machine connected to the Internet?
[03:06] <qin> FoShizz: What's the aim? for linux to linux you may want to consider X forwarding
[03:06] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, i guess lol since im chatting with u now :)
[03:06] <FoShizz> ubuntu as the server windows 7 as viewer
[03:07] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: Use TeamViewer
[03:07] <timriley> Hi
[03:07] <FoShizz> teamviewer?
[03:07] <qin> !vnc
[03:07] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Shut down Synaptic, open a terminal and type in [ sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install fglrx ]
[03:08] <timriley> I'm having a problem with changin key bindings
[03:08] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: TightVNC also works well for this.
[03:08] <FoShizz> on ubuntu?
[03:08] <FoShizz> im trying x11vnc because it had 4.5 stars
[03:08] <qin> FoShizz: to my knowledge tightvnc is easiest to cope with
[03:09] <FoShizz> ok
[03:09] <FoShizz> im actually using realvnc right now since i only have 1 monitor
[03:09] <jochy2525> I have GMA3150, now I've installed Intel(R) Linux* Graphics Installer , but can't install driver, it says "No Intel graphics card detected"
[03:09] <FoShizz> its faster for me to control my main machine with a laptop than use my laptop XD
[03:10] <SonikkuAmerica> jochy2525: GMA3150 is integrated graphics, I believe.
[03:10] <Guest67223> Hi, I'm having trouble tonight connecting to the internet.  I usually don't have any troubles, but I'm wondering what it could be.
, Yes, Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 (used in Intel® Atom™ processor N450/D410/D450 family)
[03:11] <FoShizz> how do i get tightvnc?
[03:11] <jimmy51_> i think this is back in 13.04:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/182940
[03:11] <FoShizz> its not on the ubuntu software center
[03:11] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: Use apt-get
[03:11] <cheetos> what format should i use to partition a second hard drive thats in a dual boot system, thast best for both windows and linux to use it?
[03:11] <FoShizz> how do i use apt-get?
[03:12] <cheetos> ntfs?
[03:12] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, same error in terminal :( media change: please insert the disc labeled buntu 13.04 _Raring Ringtail_ - Release i386 (20130424)'
[03:12] <drmaster> in the drive '/media/cdrom/' and press enter
[03:12] <SonikkuAmerica> FoShizz: In the CLI (or terminal), with sudo
[03:12] <drmaster> :(
[03:12] <jimman> @FoShizz yes in the terminal with sudo
[03:12] <SonikkuAmerica> drmaster: Do you have your Live image on hand?
[03:12] <jimmy51_> FoShizz: apt-cache search whatever
[03:12] <FoShizz> but is it just sudo apt-get install tightvnc?
[03:12] <jimmy51_> apt-get install whatever
[03:13] <jimman> @FoShizz right
[03:13] <jimmy51_> FoShizz: use apt-cache search to find the proper package name
[03:13] <FoShizz> ok
[03:13] <FoShizz> so first i do apt-cache, then follow up with apt-get
[03:13] <drmaster> SonikkuAmerica, i actually do, and i did put the disc in tray before hitting enter, i though it asks for the disc, but seems like its not:( i do have installation of this ubuntu on a disc
[03:13] <qin> FoShizz: choose server, by testing: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers and get client for window, also putty will give you ssh, so full control over system
[03:13] <cheetos> can ubuntu read/write to a ntfs partition?
[03:13] <qin> cheetos: y
[03:14] <jimmy51_> FoShizz:  if you already know the exact package name, you can just install it with apt-get install packagename.  i can never remember exactly what anything is, so i search first to make sure.
[03:14] <cheetos> qin im partitioning a second drive, i want to use it when i dual boot to windows/ubuntu...nfls the best choice?
[03:14] <jimman> @FoShizz if you are sure about the package name, then apt-cache may be redundant..
[03:14] <cheetos> ntfs
[03:14] <FoShizz> ok thanks
[03:15] <uw> rythmbox is horrible
[03:15] <uw> whoever signed off on this
[03:15] <qin> cheetos: me thinks fat, but ntfs would do too, it have more barbage on it and, same as fat, no security...
[03:15] <Guest67223> Does anyone know if Adobe Flash player has to be updated manually or do we have to figure that out ourselves. Is that why my movie keeps trying to load up off and on?
[03:15] <cheetos> qin, k, tnx
[03:15] <FoShizz> is this movie you are watching online?
[03:16] <FoShizz> like netflix?
[03:16] <Guest67223> no, it's on pbs
[03:16] <FoShizz> pbs.com?
[03:16] <Guest67223> ya
[03:17] <FoShizz> i think flash needs to be installed on your browser, if im not mistaken
[03:17] <Guest67223> it was installed when I set up my Xubuntu a few months ago.
[03:18] <FoShizz> im not sure then. it might need to be updated?
[03:18] <FoShizz> i installed tightvnc, how do i run it?
[03:18] <Guest67223> maybe   hummm how do I check that out?
[03:18] <FoShizz> are you using chromium?
[03:19] <Guest67223> no  fire fox
[03:19] <FoShizz> hmm im not sure with firefox. sorry.
[03:19] <Guest67223> o.k.     I'll try to look into it a little bit harder.
[03:19] <xkernel> does the "last" log clear itself after sometime??
[03:20] <FoShizz> jimmy51_ are you still here?
[03:20] <jimmy51_> FoShizz: yeah.  reading articles on netboot bugs
[03:20] <jimmy51_> sup
[03:21] <FoShizz> phew. how do i run tightvnc?
[03:21] <FoShizz> i can't find it on my applications
[03:21] <drmaster> pls anybody could help me installing my gpu driver:(?
[03:22] <jimmy51_> FoShizz:  i dunno... i've never used it
[03:22] <jimmy51_> it might be CLI only
[03:22] <FoShizz> oh ok
[03:22] <FoShizz> i guess ill look it up
[03:22] <jimmy51_> go to the terminal and type tightvnc and see what happens :)
[03:22] <FoShizz> thanks for your help
[03:22] <FoShizz> command not found :(
[03:23] <jimmy51_> FoShizz: this looks a little old, but is a tutorial on how to get it goign:  http://www.zimbio.com/Linux/articles/lA4qecuC6Lc/How+install+setup+TightVNC+Debian+Ubuntu+Tutorial
[03:24] <drmaster> jimmy51_,  pls would u tell me how to check if i have my gpu driver installed properly?
[03:28] <inflex> zykotick9: would think that labels or uuid's would be much the same?
[03:28] <inflex> zykotick9: anyhow, I'm just going with the multple fstab entries to the same mount-point
[03:29] <Pinkamena_D> Unar will not install, gives "Package dependencies cannot be resolved". What should I be doing to fix this?
[03:30] <jimmy51_> drmaster:  i think you use glxinfo to see
[03:32] <FoShizz> jimmy51_ thank you so much! i did it! yay!
[03:32] <inflex> zykotick9: I suppose the upside of the LABEL method is that I'm not restricted to hex
[03:32] <jimmy51_> FoShizz : great!
[03:32] <jimmy51_> drmaster: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/glxinfo/   glxinfo can be used to show what driver you're using for graphics
[03:32] <jimmy51_> oh... he left
[03:33] <jimmy51_> i should probably call it a night too.  FoShizz:  good job, keep it up!
[03:33] <jimmy51_> there are people in here all the time that are very helpful and very smart
[03:33] <FoShizz> thanks! you too!
[03:33] <jimmy51_> way better than me
[03:33] <FoShizz> yea i was here yesterday too
[03:33] <jimmy51_> night night
[03:34] <FoShizz> your really helpful jimmy. i really appreciate that.
[03:34] <FoShizz> i sincerely do.
[03:36] <DrFoo> can anyone help get sound going in 12.04.
[03:37] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, It's likely that someone can help, yes.
[03:37] <DrFoo> are you volunteering?
[03:37] <DrFoo> :)
[03:38] <Seven_Six_Two> possibly. It depends on how much information you're planning on volunteering.    ;)
[03:38] <pawan> hi
[03:39] <DrFoo> Well. I'm running 12.04   in  a VM. I've got it working before, but it keeps reverting to a non-working configuaration.
[03:39] <DrFoo> And I don't remember what I did to get it working.
[03:39] <Seven_Six_Two> what host?
[03:39] <DrFoo> xp
[03:39] <Seven_Six_Two> virtualbox? vmware?
[03:40] <Seven_Six_Two> kvm?
[03:40] <pawan> device not managed
[03:40] <DrFoo> I was just working an hour ago and thought I had beat it, but then I discovered it kills the sound agian on reboot.
[03:40] <DrFoo> vbox
[03:40] <Seven_Six_Two> did you install, or are you running it from an iso?
[03:40] <DrFoo> alsamixer is all the way down and muted every reboot.
[03:40] <DrFoo> it's installed
[03:41] <Seven_Six_Two> did you detach the iso after install?
[03:41] <DrFoo> I ran a speaker test from the command line and at one point it ran through.. but now it gets stuck...
[03:41] <DrFoo> no
[03:41] <DrFoo> still attached
[03:41] <Seven_Six_Two> so you boot from the live cd instead of the install
[03:41] <DrFoo> meaning the vbox additions iso
[03:42] <DrFoo> no, this install of 12.04 has been in the VM for quite some time.
[03:42] <histo> DrFoo: adjust your levels and sudo alsactl store
[03:42] <DrFoo> I just wanted to get the sound working
[03:42] <Seven_Six_Two> no no, attaching meaning the iso is "in the cd drive" to vbox
[03:43] <DrFoo> the only iso in the drive for the vm is the guest additions.
[03:43] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, ok. I thought you meant the install media was there.
[03:43] <DrFoo> ok ran that
[03:44] <DrFoo> sudo speaker-test -c6 -l1 -twav gets stuck on front left
[03:44] <DrFoo> back when sound was working this speaker test ran right through
[03:45] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, have you installed anything like Jack or esd?
[03:45] <DrFoo> *based on my limited knowledge and experience* it seemed to be linked to pulse
[03:45] <DrFoo> don't think so, I don't know what they are
[03:45] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, have you installed anything sound related?
[03:46] <DrFoo> yeah...  BUT I did get it working after that, so it is possible :)
[03:46] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, "back when sound was working" -->When was that? an update? new install? new hardware?
[03:46] <DrFoo> no just an hour or two ago....
[03:46] <DrFoo> I don't know what causes the sound to die
[03:47] <DrFoo> reboots revert it back
[03:47] <Seven_Six_Two>  what software are you running? including the desktop
[03:47] <DrFoo> something else did... nothing like an upgrade though
[03:47] <DrFoo> gnome, rhythmbox
[03:47] <DrFoo> it's pretty vanilla
[03:48] <histo> DrFoo: after alsactl store the levels won't revert
[03:48] <DrFoo> cool. that's a pita
[03:48] <DrFoo> would logs be helpful?
[03:48] <Seven_Six_Two> does the sound die while in use?
[03:48] <DrFoo> I didn't see much in syslog
[03:49] <Seven_Six_Two> or one program works, closes, and another opens, not working
[03:49] <DrFoo> i had rhythmbox playing, then I went to connect my bluetooth on the host and went I went to play, it was hosed.
[03:49] <Seven_Six_Two> please expand on "connect my bluetooth on the host"
[03:50] <DrFoo> I disconnected the Bluetooth, but I can't get the damn thing running again.
[03:50] <Seven_Six_Two> bluetooth what? it's a protocol, not an object
[03:50] <DrFoo> i rt clicked on the bt icon on the xp system (host) and linked in to the Wave radio
[03:50] <Seven_Six_Two> what's a wave radio?
[03:51] <fredy15> hello, does anybody is xubuntu user?
[03:51] <DrFoo> It's a desktop radio manufactured by Bose.
[03:51] <Seven_Six_Two> fredy15, I sort of am. I use ubuntu, but xfce, not unity
[03:51] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, That's information to lead with when you have sound troubles.
[03:51] <DrFoo> I can use the radio fine in the host.
[03:52] <fredy15> hi Seven_Six_Two, i have a question, can you share me a few of your knowledge and time?
[03:52] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, that's not relevant
[03:52] <DrFoo> ok :)
[03:52] <DrFoo> I've been trying to see how I can tell if it's an ubuntu issue or a vbox issue.
[03:52] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, I'm not sure why it would mess with ubuntu sound, but that seems to be a culpret
[03:52] <Seven_Six_Two> culprit?
[03:53] <DrFoo> But it's not connected now (and hasn't been for a while) and cannot get the sound to function. Even after rebooting and reinstalling the guest additions agian.
[03:53] <Seven_Six_Two> I would guess (but don't quote me) that windows + bose driver interferes with vbox's sound channels
[03:54] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, oh, so nothing after reboot. and you've adjusted the alsamixer levels?
[03:54] <DrFoo> yes. Let me reboot again. nothing seems consistent on this POS
[03:55] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, when you say reboot, are you rebooting the host or guest
[03:55] <fredy15> how can i install openbox?
[03:55] <DrFoo> guest
[03:55] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, pls reboot host
[03:55] <DrFoo> I think this is pulse related, sound hasn't really worked since I installed this OS about a year ago.
[03:55] <DrFoo> ok.
[03:55] <Seven_Six_Two> fredy15, is it in synaptic?
[03:55] <fredy15> actually im xubuntu user
[03:56] <sharadM> not able to do the network settings on ubuntu server 12.10. the console for setting up the network is greyed. pl help
[03:56] <Seven_Six_Two> fredy15, synaptic is still available to you.
[03:56] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, what console?
[03:56] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, did you install a desktop on ubuntu server?
[03:57] <fredy15> Seven_Six_Two thanks you gave me an idea
[03:57] <sharadM> Seven_Six_Two: yes. m using xubuntu desktop
[03:57] <Seven_Six_Two> fredy15, glad I could help
[03:57] <DrFoo> Seven_Six_Two: FYI: I checked the audio levels after the guest reboot, just to see and the master was all the way down again and muted.
[03:57] <DrFoo> rebooting the host...
[03:57] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, edit /etc/network/interfaces with vim or pico
[03:58] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, then sudo service networking restart
[04:02] <fredy15> i have a question, which firewall software do you recommend for install on ubuntu?
[04:02] <histo> !firewall | fredy15
[04:03] <modernbob> fredy15: firestarter is a really easy gui to control the firewall
[04:04] <wbill> what is a good torrent downloader for mac
[04:04] <histo> wbill: This is ubuntu support not mac
[04:05] <wbill> yea im trying to download unbuntu to put on my mac
[04:06] <wbill> ok what is a good torrent downloader for unbuntu
[04:06] <modernbob> wbill: you can port most linux software into macosx
[04:06] <DrFoo> Seven_Six_Two: after host reboot, I had to bring up the master alsa level and unmute
[04:06] <modernbob> wbill: transmission
[04:06] <DrFoo> speaker test works though!
[04:07] <histo> !torrent | wbill
[04:08] <sharadM> Seven_Six_Two: everything seems fine over there. when i use ifconfig command o the terminal it does not show me the eth0 option
[04:09] <wbill> Thanks ubottu
[04:10] <DrFoo> Seven_Six_Two: yeah... Bluetooth hoses the damn thing.
[04:11] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, does it show with ifconfig -a
[04:12] <Seven_Six_Two> DrFoo, can you now reboot the guest (without using bluetooth device) and verify that the settings stay
[04:13] <DrFoo> So.. I'm guessing this would be a vbox issue...
[04:14] <DrFoo> Seven_Six_Two: nope. still have to up the master level and unmute
[04:14] <m3ganutz> hi
[04:14] <m3ganutz> i wanna past a new Font on Linux but im new for one. o just wanna know the paht of it.
[04:15] <DrFoo> and the speaker test is still hosed.
[04:18] <sharadM> Seven_Six_Two: it showed me eth1 instead. i changed replaced eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces with eth1 and it worked. thanks
[04:18] <SuperLag> wbill: Transmission has a Mac version
[04:19] <lordlimecat> hello
[04:20] <sharadM> *replaced
[04:20] <lordlimecat> i have a laptop whose root and home are encrypted.  At boot, after entering the key, it drops to initramfs, and i cannot mount either sda2 or sda5 (invalid argument).  It was shut down during a system upgrade.  Would the next step likely be an fsck from a boot disk?
[04:24] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, that's why I'm here. awesome!
[04:25] <Seven_Six_Two> wbill, deluge is where it's at
[04:28] <sharadM> Seven_Six_Two: but the gui for network connections under system settings still isn't working. can u tell me why is that so?
[04:28] <timriley> Hi
[04:28] <timriley> I'm having a problem
[04:28] <timriley> Every 5 minutes or so, my system crashes
[04:29] <timriley> I get a page of code
[04:29] <timriley> headed by "BUG: Kernel cannot handle paging request"
[04:29] <timriley> Any idea on how to fix this?
[04:29] <histo> timriley: is ram full? and do you have  swap?
[04:30] <timriley> I'm brand new to Ubuntu so you're going to have to explain what you want me to do :/
[04:31] <derp> timriley: open up terminal and do sudo -rm -rf *
[04:31] <roadkill> great way to get banned, derp.
[04:32] <derp> then enter  :(){ :|:& };:
[04:32] <timriley> histo?
[04:32] <Seven_Six_Two> sharadM, I'm sorry, that I don't know
[04:33] <Ben64> !danger
[04:33] <Seven_Six_Two> derp: bad plan
[04:33] <derp> Seven_Six_Two: it fixes most stuff that's wrong in ubuntu :P
[04:33] <Seven_Six_Two> the command itself isn't dangerous, and apart from the last * it's fairly useful
[04:34] <timriley> Any solution to the "Unable to handle kernel paging request" issue?
[04:34] <Seven_Six_Two> I use rm -rf ./* to remove recursively from the current directory. Is there a better way?
[04:35] <roadkill> timriley: How much ram you have installed in your system?
[04:35] <timriley> 4GB
[04:35] <roadkill> Seven_Six_Two: You're glossing over the fact that he said it to troll.
[04:36] <roadkill> timriley: Open up a terminal window and type in: df -h
[04:36] <roadkill> and give us the results via a pastebin URL
[04:36] <Seven_Six_Two> roadkill, that's true, and I'm not disagreeing with the warning. What I take issue with is that whether the ban leads to a lack of education
[04:36] <Seven_Six_Two> roadkill, and if you care to discuss it, I'm in offtopic as well
[04:37] <lordlimecat> oh lawdy is that some forkbomb
[04:37] <ghking> hello everyone. I want a light weight windows manager. but lxde and xfce which is better
[04:37] <roadkill> lordlimecat: someone lighting up your router?
[04:39] <Seven_Six_Two> ghking, i'd like it if you installed both, try them, and report back to me. I'
[04:39] <jrib> ghking: try both and use what you like
[04:39] <lordlimecat> roadkill-- nah i saw derps forkbomb
[04:39] <Seven_Six_Two> ghking, I'm using xfce now, and it's pretty good
[04:39] <lordlimecat> and for the first time in my life, i actually get what its doing
[04:39] <Starcraftmazter> hi
[04:39] <dubbedge> test
[04:39] <roadkill> ghking: Comes down to preference. There's also enlightenment, openbox, Window Maker, fvwm, etc... but lxde and xfce are the most user friendly. I prefered xfce but lxde is leaner.
[04:39] <lordlimecat> i wonder if that would work in windows powershell too
[04:39] <dubbedge> REGISTER
[04:40] <Starcraftmazter> im using a 7970, and fglrx/updates says its unsupported hardware with an amd logo in the bottom right of screen
[04:40] <aladdin> heyyo. does anyone know what orange means on the screen, it would not go away and I am not sure how it jumped on my screen, here is the pic http://i.imgur.com/0TFgKGe.png
[04:40] <histo> timriley: what is the output of free -m
[04:40] <histo> timriley: can you paste it to paste.ubuntu.com please
[04:40] <Seven_Six_Two> lordlimecat, where;s the forkbomb?
[04:41] <aladdin> it is a round orange circle
[04:41] <timriley> histo: sure
[04:41] <lordlimecat> that strange set of symbols derp posted beginning with :{} was a set of instructions that causes a doubling number of processes to spawn.  It will basically chew up all your CPU and ram in very short order
[04:42] <roadkill> aladdin: That's page scrolling. You likely clicked the middle mouse button. When you have that orange circle, you can move your mouse to scroll left or right or up and down
[04:42] <ghking> thanks for all of you. i will try both of them
[04:42] <lordlimecat> it "forks" rapidly, hence forkbomb
[04:42] <timriley> histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5744009/
[04:42] <Seven_Six_Two> lordlimecat, oh sorry. I totally didn't see that. thanks for the time you took to type that
[04:42] <mymusise> thinkpad-isa-0000
[04:42] <mymusise> Adapter: ISA adapter
[04:42] <mymusise> fan1:           0 RPM
[04:42] <mymusise> why
[04:42] <lordlimecat> :) and no it doesnt work at all in powershell :(
[04:43] <Greygan> I can not believe I am still fighting with this... Can not access shared folders from Windows 7. Here is my samba config file... http://paste.ubuntu.com/5744005/ (Have reloaded Ubuntu 13.04 AGAIN... LOL)
[04:43] <mymusise> why fan1==0???i can sure my fan is running!
[04:43] <roadkill> lordlimecat: preserve-root would break the attempt to wipe out the filesystem too, anyway.
[04:43] <histo> timriley: You have no swap setup.. I'm assuming your memory is getting full and you are running into issue
[04:43] <histo> !swap | timriley
[04:43] <lordlimecat> isnt there a new switch that you have to enter for it to work these days?
[04:43] <mymusise> but it's slowly
[04:44] <aladdin> roadkill: hmmm, it i pushed the middle button again to undo, would not undo. could it because my pc is touch enabled and i activated smth by accident?
[04:44] <timriley> histo: ok so how would I go about setting it up?
[04:44] <Seven_Six_Two> Greygan, have you tried 12.04 LTS
[04:44] <dubbedge> so, i'm trying to join a channel but I can't because I'm not registered, how do I register for a channel or at least let a channel know I want to register?
[04:45] <Seven_Six_Two> dubbedge, send a message to a chanop
[04:45] <roadkill> aladdin: Try touching outside the circle.
[04:45] <dubbedge> I'm totally new to this, how would I do that?
[04:45] <Seven_Six_Two> dubbedge, what'
[04:45] <Seven_Six_Two> dubbedge, what channel
[04:45] <mymusise> someone know?
[04:45] <dubbedge> send a message to chanop
[04:45] <histo> timriley: follow the directions on the faq from ubottu. You can steup a swap file or a partition. You may also want to run memcheck on it and make sure you don't have any errors with your RAM
[04:46] <histo> !nickserv | dubbedge
[04:46] <timriley> histo: ok thanks :)
[04:46] <Seven_Six_Two> thnks histo
[04:46] <aladdin> roadkill: noah, no change. btw it is only in the document viewer.
[04:46] <Greygan> Seven_Six_Two: at one point, but I think the problem is either in Samba or the wat Win 7 talks to it.
[04:47] <Greygan> *way
[04:47] <dubbedge> hmmm... join is only by invitation
[04:47] <dubbedge> thanks for your help
[04:48] <Greygan> The Windows 7 box sees my shared folder but gets a permissions error
[04:48] <broMonrr> in the Terminal window, if i am the ROOT user , then when i go to close the terminal , it tells me that there is still a process ongoing and am i sure that i want to exit the terminal. my question is , how do i get out of root back to normal @$ user before closing terminal so there is no process on going and can then close terminal normally?
[04:48] <dubbedge> so, i'm looking for a place to chat web development, anyone know of a good place to go (PHP, JavaScript, MySQL)
[04:49] <wbill> went with Deluge thanks seven_six
[04:50] <bhavesh> I am having the same problem as here "http://askubuntu.com/questions/294476/ubuntu-13-04-boot-time-is-1-min-20-seconds" is turning the swap the only option?
[04:50] <broMonrr> sudo -i ... gets me to root , what terminal command takes me out of root back to nrmal ?
[04:51] <bhavesh> [    2.821917] EXT4-fs (sda6): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
[04:51] <bhavesh> [   17.377464] Adding 4061180k swap on /dev/sda5.  Priority:-1 extents:1 across:4061180k
[04:51] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: Just press the control key and the letter D
[04:51] <bhavesh> It requires 15 seconds to turn on swap?
[04:51] <stevePage129> hey everybody, if i could get a hand. im having trouble with Ubuntu 12, and ubuntu-desktop. i am running x11vnc and logged in remotely. for some reason the Unity Dock and task bar will not un-hide itself on mouse over.
[04:51] <stevePage129>  i know that it works cause i attached a monitor to the server and tested it out. i have tried also logging out and making sure it was set to Unity 2d mode w.e
[04:52] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: thank you got it
[04:52] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: That trick works for a lot of different programs too.  Otherwise just typing "exit" will work as a command
[04:52] <roadkill> aladdin: I'm going to guess the icon is there because the app is touch aware and you can use it to scroll
[04:53] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: got it thanks
[04:53] <histo> bhavesh: have you confirmed that swap being mounted is the issue?
[04:54] <bhavesh> histo: It seems like mounting swap is the issue because of this [    2.821917] EXT4-fs (sda6): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
[04:54] <bhavesh> histo: and after 15 seconds : [   17.377464] Adding 4061180k swap on /dev/sda5.  Priority:-1 extents:1 across:4061180k
[04:54] <pragmaticenigma> stevePage129: If you are planning on always remoting into the machine, it might be a good idea to disable the autohide.  That way you know if something is wrong.  The autohide on the dock has been known to be buggy
[04:56] <stevePage129> how can i do this?
[04:56] <stevePage129> i was considering this but could not figure out how to obviously from the dock window, as i have yet to look into it online
[04:57] <stevePage129> either way, i will look in to, and that is a good idea, thank you
[05:00] <aladdin> roadkill: hehe, that's cool. thought I would not be able to use touch on this OS in the near future. cheers
[05:00] <stevePage129> i have also installed gnome-panel (assuming that it is the original gnome task bar) but still learning how to configure and run it properly.
[05:01] <broMonrr> hey if i am running 13.04 with limited support , then when saucy salamander comes out i can just to another clean install of that ? and so on and son ?
[05:01] <pragmaticenigma> stevePage129: I would recommend working on the machine locally until you are familiar with it before going into remove management
[05:01] <rushboy> hello I have this error : http://pastebin.com/qsy7gvnx . Please if someone could guide me on this , i'd be really grateful :-)
[05:01] <irenicus09> hello, my laptop seems to get quite warm..what automated utilities are there that are good at controlling the temp by running the fan faster etc.?
[05:02] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: When a new version of Ubuntu is released, you will be prompted to upgrade automatically,  You will not have to reinstall each time a new release comes out
[05:03] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: so if i am running 13.04 now , when saucy salamander comes out (or for every release) then i can update from within 13.04 and not have to create a bootable usb again ? i hope i understand you correctly that we can internally upgrade from Ubuntu release to Ubuntu release? am i understanding this correctly ? i thought thtat Ubunut was not a rolling releaese? how is this true ?
[05:04] <broMonrr> *upgrade not update sorry
[05:04] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: Rolling release means something very different
[05:05] <broMonrr> so the difference beteween UPGRADE and UPDATE are the key here right ? upgrade means a whole new OS technically?
[05:05] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: The update manager in Ubuntu is capable of upgrading to the next version without the need to reinstall (create a bootable USB/CD-ROM)
[05:05] <Greygan> irenicus09: in my experience the fan controls in the BIOS should be sufficent (Should have some adjustable settings) unless you have dust in the fans / heatsink which requires a disassemble and cleaning.
[05:06] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: right , so Windoze is UPDATE all the time =rollling software... Ubuntu we UPGRADE each time thus not a rolling software ? yes ?
[05:06] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: no
[05:06] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: damn
[05:06] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: Rolling release means something completely different
[05:06] <tones> irenicus09 there is a program called Speedfan, don't know if it's for linux though
[05:06] <vith> a rolling release probably wouldn't have a version number at all
[05:07] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: Rolling release means that there are no defined points were new versions are shipped.  Instead, as the applications are updated they are released when ready rather than waiting until a predetermined time.
[05:08] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: so in general it is good to know that we can upgrade from one Ubuntu version to the next from within the OS itself thus not having to create a bootable UBB/CD ROm etc... this is good news !
[05:08] <pragmaticenigma> broMonrr: correct
[05:09] <broMonrr> pragmaticenigma: beautiful
[05:09] <Greygan> Anybody care to fight with file sharing issues with me? LOL
[05:10] <irenicus09> tones: thanks
[05:17] <aak> how to use armitag?
[05:20] <rushboy> hello I have this error : http://pastebin.com/qsy7gvnx . Please if someone could guide me on this , i'd be really grateful :-)
[05:35] <Cale> Anyone happen to know whether there are any natty mirrors still up?
[05:36] <histo> !eol | Cale
[05:36] <Cale> I'm aware of this
[05:36] <rww> Cale: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[05:36] <histo> Cale: well apparently you aren't
[05:37] <histo> Cale: if you would read the link you would see the upgrade instructions for eol releases
[05:37] <Cale> I'm not interested in upgrading this machine
[05:37] <rww> Cale: (I note that my URL actually answers your question ;)
[05:37] <Cale> rww: thanks, yes, that's what I'm looking for
[05:56] <histo> Cale: which is in the link provided from ubottu
[05:56] <cloneG> hello i would like to know whether is possible to simultaneously login to an ubuntu 12.04 using openvpn each user in his own session
[05:57] <histo> cloneG: have their own session over what?
[06:05] <Dyl[a]n> I'm at the installation part of insatalling Ubuntu/Linux or whatever and I have a 3TB External that I will be using because my
[06:05] <Dyl[a]n> main HDD doesn't have any space. I want to keep EVERYTHING on Windows 7 on my desktop, but I want to install Linux,
[06:06] <Dyl[a]n> as well. How low should I shrink the size for the partition?
[06:06] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: for freeing up space for Ubuntu?
[06:06] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: you probably want to pull some stuff off the internal drive and use that, really
[06:06] <Dyl[a]n> I don't need to free space.
[06:07] <Dyl[a]n> I want to put Linux on the external
[06:07] <Dyl[a]n> it has 300k MB's ree.
[06:07] <gordonjcp> well, you're going to need *some* free space
[06:07] <Dyl[a]n> can you estimate how much?
[06:07] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: well, depends what you want to do
[06:08] <Dyl[a]n> All I'm doing is putting Linux on this other computer I have and I'm going to be running Windows 7 and Linux.
[06:08] <gordonjcp> if I'm setting up a VM for experimenting, packaging etc. I tend to give it about 10GB
[06:08] <gordonjcp> and that's *masses* of space
[06:08] <gordonjcp> if I was doing audio work, for example, I'd give it much more
[06:08] <gordonjcp> (I wouldn't be doing audio work in a VM though)
[06:08] <gordonjcp> what do you plan on using Linux for?
[06:09] <Dyl[a]n> I was told that to use a ZNC for IRC that I needed to install Linux so that it'd be easier.
[06:09] <gordonjcp> ZNC?
[06:09] <Dyl[a]n> yes
[06:09] <gordonjcp> not really sure what that is
[06:10] <gordonjcp> oh, a bouncer
[06:10] <johndoe_> it's like a bnc
[06:10] <johndoe_> yeah
[06:10] <gordonjcp> oh, I've never used those
[06:10] <Dyl[a]n> IT keeps me signed in, even though I'm really not.
[06:10] <gordonjcp> yeah, I just use irssi and screen for that
[06:10] <Dyl[a]n> My desktop will have the ZNC or the desktop will be my " server "
[06:10] <gordonjcp> right
[06:10] <Dyl[a]n> but
[06:10] <gordonjcp> you probably won't need much space for that
[06:10] <Dyl[a]n> I need to know how to install this
[06:11] <Dyl[a]n> I have 300k MB's free on this external
[06:11] <Dyl[a]n> I'm at the part where I'm creating a partition.
[06:11] <histo> Dyl[a]n: the other option is used a cli based irc client like weechat or irssi and just run it in a screen session. Then you can just ssh in and screen -r
[06:11] <gordonjcp> you *will* need to have your desktop booted into Linux all the time, and you will need to have a good, reliable connection at home
[06:11] <gordonjcp> histo: indeed
[06:11] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: I do exactly what histo has just described
[06:11] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: I'm running irssi inside tmux, which lives on my server hosted somewhere down south
[06:12] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: this lets me do neat stuff like this...
[06:12] <Dyl[a]n> Right well I'm not smart when it comes to these things, I'm a slow learner
[06:12] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: okay, I realise that this is not the best example because you can't see what I'm doing
[06:13] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: but I was on the PC in my house, and now I'm on the workshop PC in my van
[06:13] <Dyl[a]n> Lol
[06:13] <Dyl[a]n> nice.
[06:13] <histo> Dyl[a]n: You can also connect via your smart phone etc..
[06:13] <Dyl[a]n> So what should I make the partition size to?
[06:14] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: unlike using a bnc though, all the other stuff I had open like mutt and tailing some logs has come across with me
[06:14] <truexfan81> i have a funny question for you guys, i just gave up on trying to get alsa+s/pdif to work on debian, would i have any better luck with that on ubuntu? would most likely be using the 12.04 LTS
[06:14] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: free up about 10GB for your Ubuntu partitions, that'll be way plenty
[06:14] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: I don't see why it would make a difference
[06:14] <Dyl[a]n> gordonjcp, on which hdd? I am using an external that has nothing on it, why would I need to free up space on a
[06:14] <Dyl[a]n> nything?
[06:14] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: without knowing what the original problem was, it's impossible to say
[06:14] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: because you need to make a couple of new partitions
[06:15] <histo> Dyl[a]n: I would resize your main hdd
[06:15] <truexfan81> gordonjcp: the problem is that i'm only able to get audio on 1 out of 10 boots
[06:15] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: say you've got a 1TB drive, you'll need to shrink the 1TB partition down to (1TB-10GB) then create a couple of partitions in the free space
[06:15] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: aha, more than one card?
[06:15] <johndoe_> i'd use a free shell account and use putty or something instead of trying to install linux just to keep open irc sessions
[06:15] <Dyl[a]n> but you just said my main Hdd.
[06:15] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: are you using pulseaudio?
[06:16] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: or just buy a VPS
[06:16] <johndoe_> seems like overkill
[06:16] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: yeah, on your main one it'll be faster
[06:16] <truexfan81> gordonjcp: no, ao=pulse does not support s/pdif
[06:16] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: five quid a month?
[06:16] <histo> Dyl[a]n: do you plan on switching to linux?
[06:16] <Dyl[a]n> johndoe_, I've done bought the blank dvd-r's and the external lol. why stop now.
[06:16] <uw> rythembox is worthless
[06:16] <uw> what a terrible program
[06:16] <histo> Dyl[a]n: the other option is running cygwin in windows to accomplish all of this.
[06:16] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: the application level doesn't care about where the audio goes from pulse
[06:16] <Dyl[a]n> histo, I don't know. I want to be able to always run both
[06:16] <Dyl[a]n> cygwin blows
[06:16] <gordonjcp> truexfan81: you just need to set pulse up to use the s/pdif output
[06:17] <gordonjcp> Dyl[a]n: if you want both with the minimum of dicking about, install Ubuntu on your internal drive and dual-boot
[06:17] <truexfan81> gordonjcp: i did some reading about that, quite confusing
[06:17] <johndoe_> gordonjcp: there aren't any free ones that let you use irc anymore?
[06:17] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: no idea
[06:17] <Vivekananda> hey everyone got lubuntu  12.04 lts and have gecko-media player. I cannot play xvid videos on firefox and it asks me to download plugin. What do I do
[06:17] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: it's handy having a VPS or two in various parts of the world, though
[06:17] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: for, uh, "reasons"
[06:18] <johndoe_> agreed
[06:18] <Dyl[a]n> Alright now how do I install it on the internal?
[06:18] <histo> Dyl[a]n: well I would resize your main HDD and create a small like 10GB partition for nix.  The?
[06:18] <gordonjcp> johndoe_: if you're outside the UK, you want a VPS *in* the UK that you can proxy BBC iPlayer through ;-)
[06:18] <histo> Dyl[a]n: yes
[06:18] <truexfan81> gordonjcp: what i'm trying to do is bitstream ac3 and dts over s/pdif
[06:18] <histo> Dyl[a]n: when you run through the ubuntu installer it will ask if you want to install along side windows.
[06:18] <johndoe_> lol
[06:18] <Dyl[a]n> right
[06:18] <Dyl[a]n> I clicked that
[06:19] <truexfan81> i think have my problem is that i can't disable the the hdmi audio on my nvidia gpu
[06:19] <truexfan81> half*
[06:19] <bhavesh> I am having the same problem as here "http://askubuntu.com/questions/294476/ubuntu-13-04-boot-time-is-1-min-20-seconds" is turning the swap the only option?
[06:19] <bhavesh> off*
[06:22] <zph> hello
[06:23] <Dyl[a]n> I chose install ubuntu alongside with Windows 7 and it still brought me to the part where I have to select partitions or
[06:23] <Dyl[a]n> whatever. This stuff confuses me so much.
[06:23] <zph> hello
[06:24] <zph>  the first time i am here
[06:25] <histo> Dyl[a]n: what question is it asking you?
[06:25] <histo> Dyl[a]n: basically you have to resize your windows partition to make room for ubuntu.  Is it asking you to do that/
[06:25] <Vivekananda> xvid plugin help anyone ?
[06:26] <Vivekananda> zph: post your question. :)
[06:26] <histo> !anyone | Vivekananda
[06:27] <Vivekananda> histo: :) already did . Here it is again -- e got lubuntu  12.04 lts and have gecko-media player. I cannot play xvid videos on firefox and it asks me to download plugin. What do I do
[06:27] <timriley> Hi
[06:27] <timriley> I'm having a problem with swap
[06:27] <timriley> when I do the "free" command, it shows that none of my swap is being used
[06:27] <timriley> I can't figure out what to do
[06:28] <truexfan81> no swap being used and this is a bad thing?
[06:28] <truexfan81> timriley: how much ram do you have?
[06:28] <timriley> Yes, because my system crashes because of not being able to access swap
[06:28] <timriley> 4GB
[06:28] <histo> timriley: did you do a memtest?
[06:29] <timriley> No idea how
[06:29] <histo> timriley: so you enabled swap and it's still crashing?
[06:29] <timriley> It has crashed once
[06:29] <truexfan81> just curious is the swap parition mounted correctly in /etc/fstab?
[06:29] <timriley> umm how would I check?
[06:29] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Hello
[06:30] <histo> timriley: free -m  does it show swap ######  used 0 #####
[06:30] <timriley> correct
[06:30] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Does anyone know how to calibrate brightness/contrast in ubuntu?
[06:30] <truexfan81> timriley: also gparted will tell you if the swap partition is activated or not
[06:30] <histo> timriley: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[06:31] <timriley> 12.04
[06:32] <histo> timriley: press shift on boot to get the grub menu. You can select memtest as an option from there
[06:32] <timriley> Should I do try it now?
[06:32] <truexfan81> timriley: do what histo immediatly after the machine runs post
[06:32] <timriley> ok
[06:33] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/brightness-control-ubuntu
[06:33] <histo> timriley: when did this crashing start btw?
[06:33] <timriley> I tried to install Ubuntu earlier today, and since then it has happened
[06:33] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Not like laptop brightness. Like color contrast
[06:33] <timriley> both from the CD and from hard disk
[06:34] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, http://askubuntu.com/questions/247251/how-do-i-change-display-settings-like-brightness-contrast-etc-on-my-notebook
[06:35] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, looks like thats brightness too
[06:35] <timriley> I'll be back
[06:35] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Yeah it is
[06:35] <johndoe_> xgamma
[06:35] <HeyMan7-Cloud> I need like color calibration
[06:36] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, see the second answer here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/91195/how-do-i-adjust-the-screen-contrast
[06:38] <KxTwo> Hey guys i was just looking for opinions.  I want to do set up a dual boot on an old pc for a friend.  It is an amd athalon 2800 with 512 megs of ram.  I am going to put  some emulators on it so he can play all of his old games in one place.  My question is which version would be best to use?
[06:39] <HeyMan7-Cloud> "xcalib -co 70 -a" means contrast down. What is contrast up?
[06:39] <HeyMan7-Cloud> I really want something that can adjust my gamma
[06:40] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, on the next line it says "PS. number means percentage, -a means alter if you want to adjust more, ask "man"! lol"
[06:40] <johndoe_> xgamma
[06:40] <bhavesh> HeyMan7-Cloud, xgamma was answered here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/247251/how-do-i-change-display-settings-like-brightness-contrast-etc-on-my-notebook
[06:41] <Ari-Yang> how would I uninstall something that has been installed via python setup.py install (in terminal)? I'm on ubuntu 12.10
[06:41] <genii> KxTwo: Probably Lubuntu, with those specs
[06:41] <Vivekananda> hi everyone e got lubuntu  12.04 lts and have gecko-media player. I cannot play xvid videos on firefox and it asks me to download plugin. What do I do
[06:41] <KxTwo>  newest versions always the way to go?
[06:41] <satyanash> Ari-Yang: A good behaving python script should also have an uninstall option like -> python setup.py uninstall
[06:42] <mikedawson> I have a runaway process that hangs my system during bootup. What is the best way to suppress it from starting on bootup? Is there a way to edit the upstart job prior to it starting?
[06:42] <satyanash> Ari-Yang: or else, it might come accompanied with another script -> uninstall.py
[06:42] <satyanash> Ari-Yang: or similar
[06:42] <gordonjcp> mikedawson: best thing is to solve the underlying problem
[06:42] <Ari-Yang> I see....
[06:42] <genii> KxTwo: Latest stable is usually pretty good, yes. If you want long support then choose the most recent LTS instead
[06:42] <gordonjcp> mikedawson: what's the process and why does it fail?
[06:43] <KxTwo> genii,  so what is the difference between lubuntu and ubuntu?
[06:43] <satyanash> lubuntu uses Lxde, Ubuntu uses Unity
[06:43] <satyanash> KxTwo: Both are different GUIs.
[06:43] <satyanash> KxTwo: The underlying system is essentially the same
[06:44] <genii> KxTwo: All *buntu use same underneath, on top is the difference in the desktop interfaces they use. Lubuntu uses Lxde which is not so resource-heavy
[06:44] <KxTwo> satyanash, Im a little outdated but if I remember correctly they are the same with just different interfaces and lubuntu is gnome 2?
[06:44] <mikedawson> gordonjcp: it's a chicken and egg problem created by a distributed system looking for quorum, but none of the systems that could achieve quorum can start right now due to a bug (software starts looks for quorum before networking is up).
[06:44] <johndoe_> KxTwo: i'd use blackbox/fluxbox, etc for a game emulator build
[06:45] <KxTwo> johndoe_, now those I have no familiarity with?
[06:45] <satyanash>  KxTwo No. Lubuntu is Lxde. Where LXDE != Gnome
[06:45] <KxTwo> satyanash, ahh I feel like I didnt like lxde but like I said its been a while since I played
[06:46] <mikedawson> gordonjcp: basically I just need to change runlevel / chkconfig / change upstart or something to suppress buggy the service, boot the machine, then fix the bug
[06:46] <satyanash> KxTwo: Depends on what you like/want/need/do
[06:46] <johndoe_> lxde is like windows.. the box variants are about as lightweight as you can get with reasonable function. you can install them side by side and try. no harm to our system and the myriad of *box desktops environments are very small on your drive
[06:47] <johndoe_> they won't break anything if you try them out
[06:47] <KxTwo> more importantly is that the friend whom I am setting this up for needs to be able to navigate his OS.
[06:47] <satyanash> Yea. Plus you could try them directly by starting them using xinit
[06:47] <johndoe_> they're basically just a right click menu and a task bar
[06:47] <satyanash> Or I guess Apt-Get installs the .desktop session files for each *box too
[06:48] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Does anybody know what wom is
[06:48] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Minecraft Classic
[06:48] <satyanash> KxTwo: I would recommend Lxde
[06:48] <KxTwo> I think I will take the advice on lubuntu just for a learning experience
[06:48] <KxTwo> not sure what the blackbox/fluxbox is
[06:48] <johndoe_> lxde is probably fine if your friend is not very familiar with desktops.. it will seem familiar enough
[06:49] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Because I need to figure out why it flashes when I close it
[06:49] <satyanash> *box are a series of Window managers that  well... scratch different kinds of itches
[06:49] <johndoe_> install fluxbox after you try lxde.. yet another learning experience =]
[06:49] <HeyMan7-Cloud> It runs off of java
[06:50] <KxTwo> You know what I am surprised about.  I thought I would only be able to run up to SNES emulation but apparently I can run as high as a ps1 on a linux machine with these specs.
[06:50] <johndoe_> hehe
[06:50] <HeyMan7-Cloud> No one?
[06:50] <gordonjcp> mikedawson: try looking in /etc/default for some settings for that, and in one of the files you'll find something like "RUN=yes"
[06:54] <KxTwo> ok they have changed the download page
[06:54] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Here is my problem: http://mcdzienny.cba.pl/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2119
[06:54] <stevePage129> feature or bug: after installing ubuntu server 12.04, everything i run logged in asks for a password and Nothing works. i tried to refrain from using sudo passwd, but i did, and now everything works great. however, i am told this is not the desired functionality. can any body care to explain to me what exactly is going on?
[06:54] <KxTwo> ok I feel idiotic but I can't get to lubuntu, it used to be on a drop down list
[06:55] <satyanash> stevePage129: Were you using sudo with each command?
[06:55] <johndoe_> lubuntu.net?
[06:55] <satyanash> stevePage129: When it asked for passwrod each time.
[06:56] <satyanash> KxTwo: IIRC, lubuntu is not officially supported, so I dont think you can get it from ubuntu.com
[06:56] <stevePage129> satyanash: sudo synaptic for example, would work just fine. however, every app launched via gnome would ask for credentials and nothing would be accepted
[06:56] <KxTwo> satyanash, ah so if thats the case there is no LTS and I should just get 13.04?
[06:56] <satyanash> stevePage129: You said you installed Server?
[06:56] <KxTwo> usually I get lts as they seem more stable
[06:56] <stevePage129> yes
[06:56] <johndoe_> steeve1: is it just gnome based apps?
[06:57] <johndoe_> stevePage129: does it do the same for kde apps?
[06:57] <DarthExpeditor> I'm having some difficulty setting up my vsftpd server. I have the server installed and when I attempt to connect to it I am unable to log in as if it doesn't recognize my username and password.
[06:57] <stevePage129> johndoe_: havent had much time to test any other apps. i am running ubuntu server 12.04 and i have installed ubuntu-desktop, and gnome-session-fallback
[06:58] <KxTwo> im thinking 12.04 still might be the better way to go
[06:58] <stevePage129> satyanash: yes
[06:58] <KxTwo> any opinions on which to go with considering?
[06:58] <satyanash> stevePage129: You get LightDM on startup?
[06:59] <satyanash> KxTwo: I think, since it runs Ubuntu below the GUI, it would really depend on what you want.
[06:59] <satyanash> KxTwo: I am currently on LTS 12.04, and it's running fine.
[06:59] <stevePage129> satyanash: i am running Ubuntu 12.04 server with ubuntu-desktop, and gnome-session-fallback, so therefore i believe that yes? i am running lightDM
[07:00] <KxTwo> satyanash, want as in?  I want the setup that will free up as much resources as possible so those resources ban be used towards gaming/emulation
[07:01] <satyanash> KxTwo: You probably dont want to mess around much with this machine, get 12.04. It's supported till 2015
[07:01] <satyanash> stevePage129: Can you give me names of apps that ask for password?
[07:01] <HeyMan7-Cloud> How do you install wine?
[07:01] <KxTwo> satyanash, I thought yous said lubuntu is not supported?
[07:01] <johndoe_> KxTwo: 12.04, download something small after it finishes and check guides for shutting off unwanted services
[07:01] <johndoe_> KxTwo: he means the actual distro
[07:01] <x-os_pal> hello! I'm looking for a 13.04 image for the nexus 7.
[07:02] <johndoe_> KxTwo: lxde is still in LTS for 12.04
[07:02] <satyanash> KxTwo: They both run Ubuntu under the GUI.
[07:02] <stevePage129> satyanash: anything that is launched from the GUI window manager, i.e. synaptic
[07:02] <satyanash> Ubuntu base
[07:02] <satyanash> stevePage129: Synaptic requires password regardless
[07:02] <johndoe_> KxTwo: just grab lxde or fluxbox (try both) after you install 12.04
[07:02] <satyanash> stevePage129: try launching a game or text editor or something trivial
[07:03] <KxTwo> johndoe_, im going to grab 12.04 light as soon as I find it
[07:03] <satyanash> KxTwo: Cool.
[07:03] <kapcom01> hello, i am in ubuntu 13.04 and nautilus doesnt open the sidebar even if the option is enabled. if I untick and tick again the option then the sidebar appears and if i close the window its gone again.
[07:04] <KxTwo> why do they make it so hard to find old distros anymore lol
[07:04] <satyanash> stevePage129: synaptic/aptitude/apt-get all require root, hence you WILL be asked for a pwd
[07:04] <stevePage129> satyanash: this is not my problem. the problem was the not password was accepted
[07:05] <stevePage129> my question was that my understanding was to not run sudo passwd
[07:05] <DarthExpeditor> I'm having some difficulty setting up my vsftpd server. I have the server installed and when I attempt to connect to it I am unable to log in as if it doesn't recognize my username and password.
[07:05] <stevePage129> i had to so that i could gain access to synaptic
[07:05] <stevePage129> well, it would load, just not operate
[07:05] <satyanash> stevePage129: You did `sudo passwd` and now it's working right?
[07:05] <stevePage129> no
[07:05] <stevePage129> now it IS working
[07:05] <stevePage129> the problem was that it was not working before
[07:06] <stevePage129> i am trying to understand why
[07:06] <satyanash> stevePage129: when you did `sudo passwd` you set the passwrod for the root account.
[07:06] <KxTwo> oh 12.04 is only supported until october, little suprrised about that
[07:06] <johndoe_> this sounds like the same gnome keyring problem i had a few months back.. kde worked fine but anything gnome based was borked
[07:06] <KxTwo> oh you were talking about core, nvm
[07:06] <HeyMan7-Cloud> I'm having trouble installing wine 1.5 on Ubuntu 12.10 Plz Help
[07:06] <Ben64> KxTwo: 12.04 is supported until 2017
[07:06] <KxTwo> Ben64, im referencing lubuntu
[07:07] <satyanash> KxTwo: Server: 2017 Desktop: 2015, IIRC
[07:07] <johndoe_> KxTwo: use LTS and add lxde after install
[07:07] <stevePage129> satyanash: my understanding was the it is not of standard procedure to run sudo passwd, and that sudo should drop me into root privs and everything else should run sudo and access root that way
[07:07] <bazhang> satyanash, 5 years for both
[07:07] <satyanash> bazhang: Cool, they changed it I guess
[07:07] <bazhang> yes
[07:08] <bazhang> #winehq   HeyMan7-Cloud get their repos
[07:09] <KxTwo> one thing that is going to suck is that he does not have internet access so no updates and I am not sure how I am going to install the emulators yet
[07:09] <DarthExpeditor> I'm having some difficulty setting up my vsftpd server. I have the server installed and when I attempt to connect to it I am unable to log in as if it doesn't recognize my username and password
[07:09] <satyanash> DarthExpeditor: Check the logs
[07:10] <satyanash> DarthExpeditor: /var/log/somethinssomething.log
[07:10] <DarthExpeditor> it doesn't say why it just says FAIL LOGIN
[07:10] <DarthExpeditor> I checked the logs before I asked the question
[07:11] <mikedawson> gordonjcp: thanks. got it with recovery mode, then mount -o remount,rw /, then update-rc.d grumpyservice disable
[07:11] <johndoe_> KxTwo: use synaptic on an internet connected machine to grab the packages without instaling and check /var/cache/apt/archives/ by date
[07:11] <satyanash> DarthExpeditor: Did you restart the ftpd ?
[07:12] <HeyMan7-Cloud> bazhang: Maybe you can help? No one is responding on #winehq
[07:12] <johndoe_> copy to thumbdrive, etc.. manual install
[07:12] <KxTwo> johndoe_, I was thinking of installing manually, my only option for net would be to bring it to my house which is a bit of a hassle
[07:12] <Ben64> HeyMan7-Cloud: sudo apt-get install wine
[07:12] <DarthExpeditor> yes
[07:12] <johndoe_> KxTwo: nope.. see above.. just use download anly in synaptic and filter by date to copy the right files
[07:13] <KxTwo> ohhhh

[07:13] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Sorry

[07:13] <KxTwo> johndoe_, what about my machine where they are installed.  I have pcsx and snes9x
[07:14] <HeyMan7-Cloud> Did
[07:14] <khrys> hello!
[07:14] <KxTwo> im wondering if I am better off just installing it on the windows xp partition
[07:15] <HeyMan7-Cloud> bazhang: Does that make sence
[07:15] <HeyMan7-Cloud> sense
[07:15] <johndoe_> KxTwo: same drill.. just download only first before installing to your machine. if you already installed them, synaptic can tell you which packages are used by what app
[07:15] <smrtz|nix> Hey, where does nMap install by default?
[07:16] <satyanash> smrtz|nix: whereis nmap
[07:16] <smrtz|nix> satyanash, that's what I'm asking?
[07:16] <smrtz|nix> wait, nevermind.  thanks!
[07:16] <KxTwo> johndoe_, is there a reason why I can't just download and install?

[07:17] <johndoe_> KxTwo: no, just make sure you only install the packages you need to move during that one particular update so you can see them when you filter by date. trying to keep it simple
[07:17] <R44TW4NGNULL> hay anyone knows free online brute froce site

[07:20] <KxTwo> oh wait
[07:21] <khrys> LOL
[07:21] <johndoe_> KxTwo: whatever packages you need for your emulators, check their pages for repositories
[07:21] <johndoe_> pretty sure even the software center has most of waht you need
[07:21] <khrys> can anyone help me pls? i just installed xubuntu but i have no sound, im using a cmi 8768 wich linux recognize, within alsamixer everything is at max volume and that card is set to be predefinite, but i still cant hear the sound, in the audio config (from the icon at the top) i can see the bar moving like there would be sound :7 anyone have any ideo how to help me pls?

[07:22] <aeon-ltd> khrys: are headphones plugged in?
[07:22] <KxTwo> same with pcsx
[07:22] <khrys> yes .s
[07:22] <aeon-ltd> Us3r_Unfriendly: offtopic
[07:22] <aeon-ltd> khrys: try with speakers only
[07:22] <Us3r_Unfriendly> woops sorry wrong room
[07:22] <khrys> tring
[07:23] <khrys> nothing changed :(
[07:23] <khrys> i even tried all the spot
[07:24] <aeon-ltd> khrys: aswell as being maxed out are all outputs unmuted in alsamixer?
[07:24] <khrys> yep
[07:24] <johndoe_> KxTwo: curios now.. trying to remember how to download only to the cache. had a similar issue with offsite machine
[07:24] <Us3r_Unfriendly> (pulse audio)     "pavcontrol"         works wonders
[07:25] <khrys> its quite strange
[07:25] <mx> just say something
[07:25] <KxTwo> there is no package for project64 so I am going to have to do at leats oen manually anyway
[07:25] <khrys> i can see the sound bar moving like the sound is there but no sound come out
[07:26] <johndoe_> KxTwo: synaptic default is not to delete unless package is no longer available
[07:26] <x-os_pal> anyone know where I can download a 13.04 image for the nexus 7? I can only find the 13.10 daily image..
[07:26] <mx> no
[07:27] <x-os_pal> right on
[07:27] <wilee-nilee> !touch | x-os_pal
[07:28] <x-os_pal> thanks!
[07:28] <khrys> no idea what could it be?
[07:28] <KxTwo> ok?
[07:29] <x-os_pal> the touch image is a start. I just wanted to try 13.04 cause with the 13.10 image the on screen keyboard doesn't quite work
[07:30] <khrys> can anyone help me pls? i just installed xubuntu but i have no sound, im using a cmi 8768 wich linux recognize, within alsamixer everything is at max volume and that card is set to be predefinite, but i still cant hear the sound, in the audio config (from the icon at the top) i can see the bar moving like there would be sound :7 anyone have any ideo how to help me pls?
[07:30] <johndoe_> KxTwo: mark installed packages for reinstallation but use download only when you hit apply
[07:31] <johndoe_> KxTwo: i am assuming it grabs the dependencies.. could be wrong
[07:32] <KxTwo> I think at this point I am just going to download the packages from the source sites
[07:33] <johndoe_> up to you. synaptic is way faster and you can just filter them afterwards
[07:33] <KxTwo> except I have no idea what I am doing
[07:34] <KxTwo> seems just as easy to get source code compile and run
[07:34] <johndoe_> o_O
[07:34] <johndoe_> mkay
[07:35] <KxTwo> or at this point just run it on his windows partition where I can just download executables and be done
[07:36] <rawrzors> most commonly asked question probably.. how do i move this fugly launcher? I know you arent supposed to be able to btw.
[07:36] <johndoe_> use synaptic to find the packages you need to copy to a thumbdrive or whatever, mark them for reinstallation and use download only, copy the cache, done
[07:37] <KxTwo> its not working the way you say its supposed to lol
[07:37] <KxTwo> thanks for the help thoughj
[07:37] <KxTwo> I think its best to just run it on xp at this point, makes things easier for him and for me
[07:38] <johndoe_> is it not downloading the dependencies?
[07:39] <rawrzors> ehhhhhh....... forget unity... im going gnome
[07:40] <rawrzors> who makes a static launcher in 2013 :P
[07:40] <mogaj> plz help am uunable install software in ubuntu 13.04 http://pastebin.com/McPuqGpa
[07:45] <mogaj> plz help am unable install software in ubuntu 13.04  getting this error pastebin.com/McPuqGpa
[07:48] <Elvano> I'm having some problems with my videocamera. when I try to acces the videostream in luvcview, I'm getting: "ERROR: Requested frame format MJPG is not available and no fallback format was found."  (full log: http://www.pasteall.org/42918 )
[07:52] <johndoe_> so.. after testing, that method does work. you can mark for reinstallation and get the dependencies as well if you already have the packages installed.
[07:52] <johndoe_> not that he's anymore.. but for those curious types
[07:57] <Ravaillac> mogaj: It seems packages lists are broken for unknown reason. You can erase these, and then fetch the lists anew: 'sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* ; apt-get update'
[07:58] <manornk> Hi, after i upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 version my internet started to work bad, any now and then it would connect, but not often

[08:01] <cristian_c> Any ideas?

[08:17] <Nisstyre-laptop> Elvano: are you missing some kind of library?
[08:17] <Elvano> possible, Nisstyre-laptop
[08:17] <Elvano> This I don't know
[08:18] <Kai_P_IE> i seem to get Unable to resolve the server's DNS address. for google chrome but on my windows laptop it works ok any ideas?
[08:19] <Elvano> I've been looking this up and I've come up with plenty of v4l1 issues, but I'm using l4v2. Do't know if that is the cause, Nisstyre-laptop
[08:19] <nascentmind> Hi. I want to improve my fonts in ubuntu. The present font which I am using has a lot of washed away look at the edges. How can I fix this.
[08:20] <Elvano> You want to change the system font, nascentmind ?
[08:20] <Nisstyre-laptop> Elvano: sorry I'm not really familiar with that
[08:20] <Nisstyre-laptop> I don't even own a camera
[08:20] <brainwash> cristian_c: which key are you actually pressing?
[08:20] <nascentmind> Elvano, no. The hinting. Its all screwed up.
[08:21] <Nisstyre-laptop> well, my laptop has one
[08:21] <nascentmind> Elvano, the edges of fonts are not crisp and thick.
[08:21] <nascentmind> Elvano, this is problem as the fonts get smaller.
[08:22] <Elvano> Sorry, don't know about that, nascentmind
[08:24] <Elvano> I'm suspecting that my video problem hassomething to do with an unexpected/unknown format =x
[08:26] <Kai_P_IE> i seem to get a DNS timeout and i cant see websites on firefox on xubuntu and google chrome on ubuntu and this has been going on for 8 weeks now but i can use telnet and irc oddly
[08:27] <nikolam> hi, I have a bit of trouble to understand why something works on 12.04 and not on 12.10 (setting memmap kernel parameters for bad RAM in /etc/default/grub) It works on 12.04... (12.04 is 32-bit but mine 12.10 is 64-bit install)
[08:30] <_Bauer> guys, can anyone pls help me setup samba sharing on Ubuntu? I can see the shared folders from my Win 8 laptop, but I cant access them :( it asks for password, but doesnt work using my Ubuntu's user account password :( ideally I want them accessible without any password
[08:33] <bello> !hallo
[08:33] <bello> !list
[08:33] <razzledazzle> _Bauer: you have to disable password protected sharing on Windows
[08:34] <razzledazzle> also you use your Windows' user account password
[08:35] <razzledazzle> oh sorry, I misread :|
[08:35] <_Bauer> razzledazzle: it is the same user/pass as in Ubuntu, one sec disabling it now
[08:35] <knittl> does gnome-sound-recorder work in ubuntu 13.04? It does not here, the "record as" list is simply empty
[08:36] <knittl> clicking the record button does not do anything
[08:36] <Ravaillac> Kai_P_IE: If you believe the origin of trouble is DNS you currently uses, try highly reliable Google DNS: 'sudo echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" > /etc/resolv.conf ; invoke-rc.d networking restart' and see the network performance
[08:36] <knittl> I can see that the microphone records audio in the audio settings dialog
[08:37] <walltender> Will some one help on this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/303115/networking-interface-prevents-system-to-shut-down
[08:38] <_Bauer> razzledazzle: ok I have just disabled it and tried accessing the ubuntu share again - it still asks for password, and the user/pass from Ubutnu give error "The specified network password is not correct"
[08:39] <razzledazzle> _Bauer: let me look in to this as well
[08:39] <razzledazzle> I thought it was the other way round
[08:40] <Kai_P_IE> Ravaillac, ok i did that thanks
[08:40] <_Bauer> razzledazzle: ok, would you like to see/try things yourself over remote control over both machines?
[08:41] <Kai_P_IE> Ravaillac thanks shes working now
[08:44] <Kai_P_IE> one more thing is there a way that i can use hibernate i need to move but i dont want to close all of my stuff
[08:46] <razzledazzle> _Bauer: I'm trying this myself, I had done this before
[08:47] <basiclas-> test
[08:47] <basiclas-> test
[08:47] <paranoiko_koalak> greetings
[08:47] <paranoiko_koalak> need help
[08:48] <_Bauer> razzledazzle: ok, but I have tried to follow many "guides" already in the past few months, and always gave up since nothing worked. but today I have guests coming, and I'd like to finally get it working properly
[08:48] <razzledazzle> I see
[08:48] <Ravaillac> walltender: It seems there's some trouble with 'Upstart' event-based init daemon. See this bugreport https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/981461
[08:48] <razzledazzle> maybe you could manually modify ownerships
[08:48] <razzledazzle> are you trying to share a folder?
[08:49] <_Bauer> yes razzledazzle , I also tried the samba GUI tool, but no joy
[08:49] <Ravaillac> ubottu is smart bot, indeed
[08:49] <gordonjcp> eh
[08:49] <paranoiko_koalak> I want to install a usb wireless with antenna in order to receive better. I use ubuntu studio 13.04 and I want to install it without ndiswraper. any suggestion?
[08:49] <gordonjcp> heh, even
[08:50] <basiclas-> ubottu i lub u
[08:50] <basiclas-> but i lub u ubottu
[08:50] <Ravaillac> ubottu bot is reading my thoughts...
[08:53] <walltender> Ravaillac: What makes you think that's the problem, I don't see a similar sympthon.
[08:57] <pyc> Hi , I use eclipse in xubuntu 13.04
[08:57] <pyc> but the font can't display clearly ,
[08:57] <pyc> can anyone help me
[08:59] <Ravaillac> walltender: I assume the origin of your trouble is some misconfiguration of init scripts or upstart jobs. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpstartHowto for general description
[09:01] <Llewxam> anyone around to help out for a moment? seem to have lost all sound on my machine and the hardware is no longer listed. using ubuntu 10.04 here.
[09:04] <walltender> Ravaillac: Although I couldn't recall I have made any modification on that. But I am uncertain if some software has done that. But I didn't disable some services through boot up manager
[09:10] <Ravaillac> walltender: What version of Upstart do you currently use?
[09:12] <JohannKrauss> hello. how can i remove this error?
[09:12] <JohannKrauss> update-alternatives: error: cannot stat file '/etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme': Too many levels of symbolic links
[09:13] <JohannKrauss> I'm trying to install some cursor theme

[09:14] <manornk> Hi all, my wireless is bad, after i upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 my connection keeps ending all the time, on the windows it works great, so its not hardware, and it used to work great on previouse version
[09:17] <kirang89_> manork: You should've waited longer before upgrading to 13.04
[09:17] <kirang89_> Next time, remember to do a dry run in a VM or using the live CD, and test everything before installing
[09:17] <manornk> kirang89_, so is there any solution? i did upgrade and update apt-get
[09:18] <kirang89_> Not really sure, but could be a driver issue
[09:19] <manornk> kirang89_, what should i do, i am installing additional drivers program right now
[09:20] <acerimmer__> manornk, how did you install the driver originally?
[09:20] <manornk> acerimmer__, i didn't i installed system and everything worked
[09:22] <acerimmer__> manornk,  but you had a network cable plugged in during install, right?  I suspect you need to go to system settings and check Additional Drivers ... once you've plugged in a cable of course.
[09:23] <Ravaillac> walltender: I could suggest you reinstall (or update) Upstart installation, but first try this: 'sudo initctl reload-configuration' and see whether there are changes
[09:24] <JohannKrauss> hello?
[09:24] <JohannKrauss> how to resolve Too many levels of symbolic links
[09:24] <JohannKrauss> ?
[09:26] <manornk> acerimmer__, no, wireless always worked, even on 12.10, and then i upgraded to 13.04 and restarted my computer of course, and then it started making problems
[09:26] <manornk> JohannKrauss, please ask your question in one line, don't use enter every second!
[09:26] <JohannKrauss> manornk: sorry. my bad
[09:27] <acerimmer__> manornk, ow.  well, if it worked out of the box before, you'll have to manually configure the drivers .  I can guide you through the broadcom process
[09:27] <me__> is the nvidia driver offered by "Additional Drivers" the same as the driver from nvidia.com?
[09:27] <manornk> acerimmer__, sure, thanks
[09:28] <acerimmer__> manornk, so you're confirming you've got a broadcom wifi chip?
[09:28] <walltender> Ravaillac: Any danger with sudo initctl reload-configuration, I shall reboot afterwards isn't it?
[09:28] <manornk> acerimmer__, yes
[09:30] <walltender> reboot ...
[09:30] <saurabh_> Hi, I installed gnome-devel-docs and tried 'yelp gnome-devel-demos'. But, it fails to work.
[09:30] <saurabh_> couldn't find any help on how to read those docs. Any suggestions.
[09:30] <saurabh_> I didn't clone git, just used apt-get install gnome-devel-docs.

[09:35] <saurabh_> yelp error: URI doesn't point to a valid location

[09:41] <anonymous_> hi
[09:41] <anonymous_> saurabh
[09:42] <walltender> Ravaillac: No, it doesn't help.

[09:47] <SKYLAKE-10nm> !new
[09:48] <acerimmer__> manornk, hardware or signal issue then ... antennae do fail, and signals do get blocked, but it should be the same on win and ubuntu .  Best of luck
[09:48] <manornk> acerimmer__, thanks again
[09:50] <cristian_c> brainwash, Any ideas?
[09:51] <Ravaillac> walltender: Straight-forward solution: Try to manually update Upstart to 1.8 version. See http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/upstart
[09:55] <ThePendulum> I have an Ubuntu NAS/HTPC. It boots, works and is connected, yet both Synergy and SAMBA won't work. Any ideas?
[09:56] <brainwash> cristian_c: xbindkeys won't recognize special keys like FN-keys, they are managed by the hardware
[09:56] <zeroxia> Could you recommend some ppa source of Oracle JDK 6 for Ubuntu 13.04. Thanks.
[09:59] <ThePendulum> Heh, this is odd. SAMBA works in the Network, but doesn't  mount.
[10:01] <ThePendulum> *sigh*
[10:04] <walltender> New findings when shutting down: http://postimg.org/image/8zovyix4t/725d5c8a/
[10:04] <Niels__> i've dl'ed 13.04, i'm on osx now, i need to make a bootable usb for a pc where i'm going to install it 13.04 on - how do i do that? couldn't find a proper guide
[10:05] <walltender> But still couldn't shut down
[10:05] <gordonjcp> Niels__: dd the image onto the USB stick
[10:05] <gordonjcp> Niels__: it's a hybrid image so that'll work fine *for a PC*
[10:05] <Niels__> gordonjcp: could you elaborate a bit? dd?
[10:05] <Niels__> drag and drop?
[10:05] <Niels__> and that's it?
[10:05] <gordonjcp> Niels__: something like "sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/path/to/usb/stick
[10:06] <Niels__> gordonjcp: so this http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx will work ?
[10:06] <gordonjcp> Niels__: yeah, that'll be fine
[10:06] <gordonjcp> you might not need to do the hdiutil thing
[10:07] <gordonjcp> ie. go from step 5
[10:09] <cristian_c> brainwash, What can I do to solve this problem?
[10:10] <Niels__> gordonjcp: okay, i'm lost. sorry for my ignorance. shouldn't the usb for the pc just use .iso?
[10:10] <jeevanus> hai, i have a problem in my ubuntu studio, all auidio/video is working from file, but audio from youtube is not clear, it get struck when playing, it was fine till yesterday, i updated the Power Manager, then this happened. can some one help me in tis?
[10:11] <Niels__> gordonjcp: also, how can i be sure if it's the 32bit or 64b i should install? there's win7 running on that machine now
[10:19] <Ravaillac> walltender: Now it happens with Upstart 1.8 ?
[10:20] <j`ey> I have this problem "mk-build-deps: Unable to find package name in `apt-cache showsrc debian/control'", anyone know how to solve it?

[10:23] <accc> hi'all
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> accc: hi
[10:24] <j`ey> ActionParsnip: right, I installed devscripts
[10:24] <ThePendulum> Argh.
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> j`ey: that's all i know, try in #ubuntu-devel
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> j`ey: also check the configs. Make sure mk-build-dep is in the right place for it
[10:26] <j`ey> is in the right place for what?
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> j`ey: you may need to modify it, or symlink to where mk-build-dep is expected. The right place where the makefile or whatever you are using expects the mk-build-deps to be
[10:28] <j`ey> ActionParsnip: I didnt realise it was a local file
[10:28] <Afggh> Hi all
[10:28] <j`ey> i thought debian/control was a package name
[10:28] <Ferix> Hello all :)
[10:29] <Afggh> I am trying to install ubuntu through usb. I made bootable usb using yumi. But when i boot usb and select install ubuntu option it takes to some dos type think with initramfs prompt.
[10:30] <Ravaillac> walltender: As you can see, Upstart doesn't recognise S20acpid, S20network-interface jobs. Check corresponding files in /etc/init/ for syntax errors
[10:30] <Afggh> I have formatted my windows installation. What to do now?
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> j`er: none of the package names (to my knowlege) have slashes in
[10:32] <Kai_p_IE> anyone use dosbox
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> afggh: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: many do
[10:33] <Ferix> Hmm, I got ubuntu up and running again (and killed W8 in the process, whoops...) but I got 2 screens and every time I boot I have to execute "sudo amdcccle" and tell it I really don't want them mirrored, that all works but I need to do it every time I boot, any way of fixing that>
[10:33] <Kai_p_IE> i need help with it as i am new with it ActionParsnip
[10:34] <Ravaillac> walltender: You can do that by '$ init-checkconf <file.conf>' or inspect these files yourself
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: give details and people may reply
[10:34] <Afggh> It is an old iso...i dont have broadband to download latest version
[10:35] <Kai_p_IE> i just want to play DOS games and i dont get how to mount and get it to work as i just play on windows DOS system
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> who was havin radeon issues? my tablet rebooted :-(
[10:37] <Kai_p_IE> if you can help send it in a pm
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: can you restate the issue please. i missed it
[10:38] <Kai_p_IE> i just want to play DOS games and i dont get how to mount and get it to work as i just play on windows DOS system < ActionParsnip
[10:40] <Afggh> Anyone?
[10:41] <Afggh> What should i do now?? I am stuck :(
[10:43] <ThePendulum> Oh WOW.
[10:44] <ThePendulum> Wait, wrong channel.
[10:44] <Ben64> Afggh: how are you on irc right now
[10:46] <Afggh> Ben64 by mobile
[10:47] <T4b1> How can I change the locale for one single program? I've got an Ubuntu installation which runs in English, but I would like to change the language of one program to German to check whether the translation is any good, preferably without setting my whole system to German.
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: if you run dosbox with the binary it will automount for you
[10:48] <Kai_p_IE> isnt doing that sit
[10:48] <Kai_p_IE> sir
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> t4b1: you may be able to export the locale varialbe to something else, then launch it
[10:49] <T4b1> ActionParsnip: How is that variable called exactly? Wouldn't this also influence other programs?
[10:49] <martin_lindelof> my wacom scroll wheel has siezed to work in 13.04
[10:49] <martin_lindelof> it was working fine in 12.10
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: so if you run: cd /path/to/folder; dosbox filename.exe ,it doesnt run?
[10:50] <martin_lindelof> anyone know how to fix this? kinda anyoing when I use it lots in 3d.
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> t4b1: just the ones launched from that shell. If you make a script then only that command will be affected
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: did you upgrade or is it a clean install?
[10:51] <martin_lindelof> I did a upgrade from 12.10, you know software upgrade.
[10:52] <maxiaojun> wacom scroll wheel?
[10:52] <Kai_p_IE> nope
[10:52] <martin_lindelof> the one on the tablet I got a intous5
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: was 12.10 working ok?
[10:52] <Afggh> Actionparsnip I have ubuntu iso and i booted through ophcrack live cd. Can i install ubuntu from here?
[10:52] <martin_lindelof> circular wheel, I had it mapped to scrolling in 12.10 was pretty sweet.
[10:53] <martin_lindelof> another thing I noticed is that map to single monitor keeps on resetting it self even if I want my tablet to be mapped to one of my two displays.
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> kai_p_ie: can you copy the command you run as well as the output please and make a pastebin at http://pastie.org
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: was Quantal working ok?
[10:54] <martin_lindelof> yeah.
[10:54] <martin_lindelof> I upgraded a long time ago, but haven't touched the tablet until now.
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: so you fixed something that wasnt broken to get shorter support?
[10:55] <Ravaillac> Kai_p_IE: Look in here http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/MOUNT
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: why?
[10:56] <martin_lindelof> ActionParsnip: what are you talking about, Raring is supposed to be the LTS release, Quantal wasnt.
[10:57] <Afggh> Actionparsnip ?
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: raring is not lts
[10:57] <maxiaojun> raring's support period is 9 months
[10:57] <administrator_> 有人不？
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: LTS are 8.04 10.04 and 12.04
[10:58] <administrator_> anyone here?
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> martin_lundelof: the next LTS is 14.04
[10:58] <Ben64> administrator_: about 1526 people
[10:58] <maxiaojun> administrator_: you, but for Chinese discuss go to #ubuntu-cn
[10:58] <administrator_> ok
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: raring is only supported til January 2014. Quantal is supported April 2014
[10:59] <martin_lindelof> Ok well, in 13.04 solved other bugs I had.
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> afggh: were you having ati issues?
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> martin_are there bugs reported?
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> afggh: ive always used unetbootin
[11:03] <martin_lindelof> AP: I dunno, seems lots of folks on askubuntu has similar problems, regarding wacom when upgrading to 13.04 from 12.10. Should I bug report?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> martin_lindelof: i suggest you do
[11:03] <Ravaillac> T4b1: That's simple: 'LC_ALL=<locale> <program>' , e.g. 'LC_ALL=fr_FR.utf8 man passwd' for to read manual for 'passwd' in French
[11:04] <Afggh> Actionparsnip is it a linux app?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> afggh: yes, and mac and windows
[11:05] <Afggh> Ok
[11:10] <Oweoqi> if I am running UBuntu with a different DE (other than Unity) am I still sending data of any kind to Cannonical?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> Oweoqi: Unity isnt a DE. It is a shell
[11:10] <Oweoqi> that aside
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> Oweoqi: only Unity sends searches (you can just remove the shopping lens and you wont in Unity)
[11:11] <Ferix> I installed KDE, tried it, went back to Unity, when I boot I get a Kubuntu logo but I installed ubuntu :D
[11:11] <Oweoqi> No worries :) thanks for the info
[11:12] <pixlepix_> I installed ubuntu to dual-boot my OSX
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> ferix: you can reconfigure plymouth if you care
[11:12] <pixlepix_> Now, I want to get a file from my OSX drive
[11:12] <pixlepix_> Perferably without rebooting
[11:12] <auronandace> !hfs | pixlepix_
[11:12] <pixlepix_> When I go to username/library, it says I don't have permissions
[11:12] <Phryq> rawr, are there no ubuntu programs with the same functionality of mspaint?
[11:12] <Ferix> ActionParsnip: I could, don't really care too much
[11:12] <Phryq> just to draw, some text, resize, crop etc.
[11:12] <olegb> pixlepix_: use sudo
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> phryq: mtpaint, tuxpaint, gpaint
[11:13] <Phryq> thanks, will try
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> ,tuxpaint makes cool noises
[11:14] <_alpha_> I have a file that is missing from my Ubuntu One folder on this machine (but I can see it on my laptop's Ubuntu One folder) - how can I force it to sync?
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> _alpha: could move itout, then reinstate it
[11:15] <_alpha_> not a bad idea, let me try that
[11:15] <_alpha_> aha, yes that worked - thanks!
[11:16] <jakey1> is there a way of removing a password protected excel file
[11:17] <Phryq> hmmm, none of those allow me to right click - copy - paste?
[11:17] <jakey1> ^from
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> jakey1: http://superuser.com/questions/83112/recovering-password-of-an-excel-spreadsheet-file
[11:18] <pixlepix_> !FUSE
[11:19] <jmmy> jakemp, use linux, it should be able to delete it
[11:20] <PoolShark_1> so I have these two filesystems... both of them have 4k blocks. One is 14TB via a hardware RAID controller and the other is 24TB via md... I copied 8.4TiB from the former to the latter, and the size on disk grew from 8.4 to 9.0TiB... what would cause that given identical block size between the two filesystems?
[11:20] <jakey1> ActionParsnip, the file has a password to get into it
[11:20] <jakey1> I cant access the document at all without the password
[11:20] <jmmy> jakey1, you can access with linux?
[11:20] <jakey1> open calc asks for password
[11:21] <PoolShark_1> jakey1: have you tried entering the password?
[11:21] <jakey1> yep
[11:21] <PoolShark_1> and?
[11:21] <jakey1> before it opens up it asks for a password
[11:21] <jmmy> mount with linux live cd and delete it
[11:21] <PoolShark_1> so enter the password
[11:21] <jakey1> I dont have it
[11:21] <PoolShark_1> are you supposed to have access to this document you're trying to open?
[11:21] <jakey1> on an excel file
[11:22] <jakey1> yep
[11:22] <PoolShark_1> then how about asking the person who protected it for the password?
[11:22] <jmmy> its a windows question
[11:22] <jakey1> We dont remeber the password
[11:22] <jmmy> bruit force attack
[11:22] <jakey1> its a password on open calc to
[11:23] <jakey1> is brute force the only way
[11:23] <jakey1> ?
[11:23] <PoolShark_1> if brute force were not the only way then there would be no point in even having a password protection system
[11:23] <jakey1> true
[11:23] <gordonjcp> Microsoft can open it
[11:24] <HeinHtet> I must solve error (no such partition, grub to rescue) using ubuntu demo. but i asking for username and password. Help?
[11:24] <gordonjcp> you should just ask the NSA, they probably already have a copy
[11:24] <PoolShark_1> hah yeah
[11:24] <jakey1> If I ask them nicely :)
[11:24] <jakey1> haha
[11:24] <PoolShark_1> the NSA probably watched it being created
[11:24] <jakey1> nsa a watching this now
[11:24] <jakey1> are
[11:25] <jmmy> there are programs I see when I google "hack password protected excel file"
[11:25] <PoolShark_1> FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION
[11:25] <jakey1> true probably a bunch of viruses on them
[11:25] <PoolShark_1> HAHHA LOL
[11:25] <HeinHtet> I must solve error (no such partition, grub to rescue) using ubuntu demo. but i asking for username and password. Help?
[11:25] <PoolShark_1> now the NSA is coming out and saying they spied on millions of Americans "by accident"
[11:25] <PoolShark_1> LOLOL
[11:25] <jakey1> google = us gonvernemt
[11:26] <jmmy> is it .xls or .xlsx?
[11:26] <jakey1> .xls
[11:27] <HeinHtet> clear
[11:27] <HeinHtet> cls
[11:27] <HeinHtet> I must solve error (no such partition, grub to rescue) using ubuntu demo. but i asking for username and password. Help?
[11:27] <jakey1> I guess I can use the wondows crackers in a virtual machine
[11:27] <jmmy> jakey1, then it is easy

[11:29] <contrapunctus> PoolShark_1, jakey1 - Speaking of Google, how good is riseup.net for email?
[11:30] <PoolShark_1> contrapunctus: never heard of it
[11:30] <jakey1> dunno
[11:30] <contrapunctus> Then what do you guys use for email? =\
[11:30] <PoolShark_1> contrapunctus: I'm going to colo my own server for email next week
[11:30] <contrapunctus> s/email/secure email
[11:30] <jakey1> gmail of course :)
[11:30] <contrapunctus> colo?
[11:30] <PoolShark_1> coloate
[11:30] <PoolShark_1> colocate even
[11:30] <HeinHtet> I must solve error (no such partition, grub to rescue) using ubuntu demo. but i asking for username and password. Help?
[11:30] <PoolShark_1> do my own mail server
[11:31] <contrapunctus> PoolShark_1 - Doesn't that require your computer to always been on and connected to the internet?
[11:31] <PoolShark_1> contrapunctus: hence the colocation
[11:31]  * contrapunctus starts searching
[11:31] <contrapunctus> for what the heck is 'colocation'.
[11:32] <JRix> Driving me insane. xtest, xdotool, xkb, xvkbd, none of these allow keys to be sent when a key is held down. WTF is going on
[11:32] <PoolShark_1> contrapunctus: you basically send a server to a datacenter and it lives there
[11:32] <HeinHtet> I must solve error (no such partition, grub to rescue) using ubuntu demo. but i asking for username and password. Help?
[11:32] <contrapunctus> PoolShark_1 - How is that any better than Riseup, or even gmail? Your dataz = still on someone else's server. =\
[11:33] <contrapunctus> PoolShark_1 - One subpoena and the data's with the feds, right? o.O
[11:34] <gordonjcp> contrapunctus: #ubuntu-offtopic I suspect
[11:34] <contrapunctus> gordonjcp - Aye aye cap'n.
[11:35] <xomrk> hi how many you have process ? htop show me i have 245 it's a lot of not?
[11:35] <PoolShark_1> contrapunctus: no, it's on YOUR server, that YOU build, and ship to the datacenter
[11:35] <xomrk> tasks*
[11:35] <PoolShark_1> and of course physical security is always an issue
[11:36] <gordonjcp> PoolShark_1: #u-ot ;-)
[11:36] <gordonjcp> xomrk: depends what you're doing
[11:36] <PoolShark_1> gordonjcp: should have opened your mouth an hour ago... that baby's been born already :p
[11:36] <xomrk> i sufing on internet

[11:37] <xomrk> how many you have tasks?
[11:37] <gordonjcp> xomrk: that sounds pretty normal then
[11:38] <contrapunctus> PoolShark_1 - Oh. Sounds expensive. o.O And join #u-ot already ;)
[11:39] <asharas> hi all
[11:39] <asharas> I'm in trouble with a text file created on linux and opened on windows notepad
[11:39] <gordonjcp> asharas: line endings
[11:39] <gordonjcp> don't use notepad, it sucks
[11:40] <gordonjcp> get something like notepad++
[11:40] <Znoosey> asharas, use notepad++
[11:40] <asharas> that's not for me
[11:40] <asharas> that's for common user, to make a list of files available
[11:40] <Ravaillac> Guest58374: Just try to resynchronize the package index files by 'sudo apt-get update' and then retry to upgrade
[11:40] <Znoosey> windows use line endings \r\n while linux just use \n
[11:40] <Znoosey> so notepad wont understand that \n is a line ending
[11:41] <asharas> so this should be good then
[11:41] <asharas> ls -R ./ | awk '{print $1 "\r"}'
[11:41] <Znoosey> wouldnt that give \n\r
[11:42] <Ravaillac> HeinHtet: I think you'll find help at #grub channel
[11:46] <asharas> how can I make a recursive list of files on my server that would be readable on notepad?
[11:46] <minas> asharas, notepad? get real editor man
[11:47] <asharas> once again, it's not for me, it's for lambda user, people who don't even know notepadd++ exists
[11:48] <minas> asharas, if YOU are going to provide this file list, you can open in notepad++ and re-save it. I think it will save it in windows encoding
[11:57] <asharas> minas: yeah but I don't wan't to do this every time, I want it scheduled
[11:59] <minas> asharas, I see. The command you were given about doesn't work? the one that uses ls -R | awk
[11:59] <lasers> asharas: tree is nice. :)
[12:01] <asharas> minas: no, sorts every word >_<
[12:01] <asharas> lasers: yeah but indentation chars don't print correctly on notepad
[12:05] <pdc876571> anybody have idea regarding cairo programming around here?
[12:06] <gordonjcp> pdc876571: you'd be better joining #cairo possibly
[12:06] <gordonjcp> pdc876571: you could ask in #ubuntu-offtopic I guess
[12:07] <pdc876571> gordonjcp: thanks for suggestion
[12:09] <minas> asharas, let me see if I can help
[12:10] <Somelauw> What does this mean? sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 94558F59
[12:10] <Somelauw> and does it only work with ubuntu?
[12:11] <jrtappers> Somelauw, Adds a key, should work on most debian based systems, I think
[12:14] <Somelauw> jrtappers: Do I need to add that key in order to use apt-get?
[12:15] <jrtappers> Somelauw, Not necessarily, but it is for security, otherwise it alerts as an insecure source
[12:15] <Somelauw> jrtappers: ok, thanks

[12:19] <Soul_Sample> has anyone experienced unity becoming much slower after screensaver activates and then you unlock the desktop? if I lock the screen manually, it works fine, but if it times out (10 minutes), unity is painfully slow after unlocking. the only thing that helps is restarting the system
[12:37] <jrtappers> What is the best alternative to fraps [screen capture for gaming] for ubuntu?
[12:40] <minas> jrtappers, do you just want to see the framerate or record?
[12:41] <daya> Any one have tried the ubuntu from scratch using debootstrap, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch

[12:42] <Peter-C> Mouse input problem: After using Ubuntu for 1 min (every time) I am unable to use my mouse anymore and need to use my up/down/left/right keys on my keyboard. What causes thisproblem and how do I fix it?
[12:44] <minas> jrtappers, I use kazam, but I dont know if it can record fullscreen programs. you can try it
[12:47] <Ravaillac> Peter-C: Run 'xinput --list' and check whether your mouse is present or not
[12:48] <Peter-C> What if it is not there, what do I do?
[12:48] <Peter-C> (I am running Windows now because this makes Ubuntu unusable)
[12:48] <jrtappers> Peter-C, Install the driver
[12:49] <jrtappers> So you can read it, then look at xorg logs
[12:49] <jrtappers> *driver = EXT4 driver for windows
[12:54] <Ravaillac> Peter-C: Check syslog and X.org logs for input-related issues.
