[15:47] <asus1025c> i have an Asus EEEPC 1025C netbook (Atom N2800, Intel GMA3650 graphics) and updating the kernel to 3.4  i managed to get 1024x600  and was able to watch 480p and 720p videos on my netbook's 10 inch screen. I also wanted to use my netbook' s HDMI port and that is where things went downhill
[15:47] <escott> fr-z, don't touch .private. don't do anything to it
[15:47] <escott> fr-z, it is your real $HOME. you start messing with it and $HOME you can say goodbye to all your files
[15:49] <asus1025c> i followed the instructions found on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1953734&page=10    (post #94) , rebooted and now X does not start anymore, i tried startx from the console but it exits with error "Fatal server error: no screens found"  Can anyone help me?

[15:55] <fr-z> escott if its my home how can .private occupy 70 gb when my all honw, without .private, has 30 gb)
[15:55] <fr-z> _
[15:56] <ace_me> ls /sbin/mkfs* is not showing that .ext3
[15:56] <joel135> asus1025c: revert to your old xorg.conf. then make the changes to the file one at a time until the error occurs again
[15:58] <asus1025c> i did not have an xorg.conf when i started so i can not revert to it
[15:58] <kenbo11> hi all
[15:59] <kenbo11> I was just running an update and it seems to have stalled at "Installing new version of config file /etc/init/zramswap.conf ...
[15:59] <kenbo11> "
[15:59] <kenbo11> will I do much damage if I quit it
[15:59] <joel135> asus1025c: mv your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.notworking or something. then, as root, run "X -configure" to get a fresh one
[16:00] <drecute> what is the inode numer used for ext4 journal?
[16:00] <drecute> *number
[16:01] <Jonii> Bwah, Ubuntu has some serious issues with keeping windows and their icons visible
[16:03] <joel135> asus1025c: if I recall correctly, "X -configure" will create new xorg.conf in $HOME, so you'll need to move that one, too
[16:03] <escott> fr-z, the overhead of encryption should not be that large. its possible that something has gone wrong, but removing files from .private is the wrong way to deal with it
[16:04] <fr-z> escott is that important to have the encryptation active on the OS_
[16:05] <kenbo11> I was just running an update and it seems to have stalled at "Installing new version of config file /etc/init/zramswap.conf ...
[16:05] <escott> fr-z, you choose to enable encryption. thats your decision to make
[16:07] <fr-z> ok escott tahnk you m8 >(
[16:07] <altin> anyone knows where can I find graphic card drivers for ATI
[16:07] <m8> fr-z, :)
[16:07] <escott> fr-z, it would also be helpful if you could post the output of du -h -d 2 $HOME
[16:07] <altin> I have a thinkpad t60 with ati radeon x1400
[16:07] <altin> additional drivers cant find any driver
[16:07] <altin> and I also searched google but not that successful
[16:08] <escott> fr-z, rather -d 1
[16:11] <Sidewinder1> How/where to 'enable' the Ubuntu OS log-on sound that I've come to know and love {in all of the previous versions} in 12.04? I get the 'beat of the bongos', which prompts for password but after that, when log-on occurs, no log-on flourish sound.. TIA.
[16:11] <the_misfit> Hi. I just installed 12.04 fresh install for the first time. fglrx has given me problems but nothing too serious -- just error messages -- since Maverick. I'm going to stop being lazy and hitting 'cancel' and learn what these things mean
[16:11] <the_misfit> i get a 'system has recovered from an error' i hit cancel and things are ok
[16:12] <asus1025c> running  X -configure  got my netbook back to a working X environment. THANK YOU!  But my hdmi issue remains unsolved
[16:12] <escott> Sidewinder1, i think it might still be there, but the volume was changed from ear splitting to reasonable
[16:13] <asus1025c> joel135: thank you. see my previous post. got a working X. Any ideas about getting hdmi working on my netbook?
[16:13] <Sidewinder1> escott, Thanx for the response; no, volume isn't the issue, at least I don't think so. Any other suggestions I might try?
[16:14] <escott> Sidewinder1, http://maketecheasier.com/disable-login-sound-in-ubuntu-oneiric-quick-tips/2011/09/15
[16:14] <Sidewinder1> escott, Thanks, I'll look.
[16:14]  * Sidewinder1 Looks
[16:14] <fr-z> escott its still listing lol
[16:16] <escott> fr-z, the best output would be "du -h -d 1 $HOME | sort -h
[16:17] <alFReD-NSH> Ok, I'm Back. So I've made a clean install today. And after it boot up normally. Got the updates and restarted again, it hangs on the boot screen http://db.tt/r8ckaXj6

[16:19] <escott> fr-z, du (GNU coreutils) 8.13 does
[16:19] <alFReD-NSH> Also this happens before it http://db.tt/XCACHyN0
[16:20] <fr-z> escott frz@fr-z:~$ sudo du -d 1 $HOME | sort -h
[16:20] <fr-z> du: invalid option -- 'd'
[16:20] <fr-z> Try `du --help' for more information.
[16:20] <escott> fr-z, why are you running with sudo?
[16:21] <fr-z> without it gives the same error
[16:21] <escott> alFReD-NSH, i doubt the intel error is related. its probably some kind of driver bug
[16:22] <escott> fr-z, what is du --version
[16:22] <dangbarry> man du and there is no d flag are you looking for -D
[16:22] <alFReD-NSH> It was working correctly the week before...
[16:23] <alFReD-NSH> The reninstall made the problem, escott
[16:23] <fr-z> escott 8.5
[16:24] <escott> dangbarry, fr-z "man du | grep -- -d"    -d, --max-depth=N
[16:24] <zolom> Hi all, On Natty, I'm getting "mountall: mount /boot [1144] terminated with status 32" in /var/boot.log ; don't see anything regarding /boot (or sde2) in dmesg. Mounts fine in recovery/after boot-up. /boot is ext2 part on /dev/sde2. Any direction on how to tackle this? Ty
[16:25] <sp4d3r> hi
[16:25] <escott> fr-z, you could try --max-depth=1 instead of -d 1 if thats a new option
[16:25] <dangbarry> then use --max-depth that what its finding
[16:25] <dangbarry> -d in max depth
[16:26] <kenbo11> I was just running an update and it seems to have stalled at "Installing new version of config file /etc/init/zramswap.conf ...
[16:26] <kenbo11> there's nothing asking for input
[16:27] <kenbo11> how do i kill it and restart it
[16:27] <escott> fr-z, and if a program gives you an error about a command line argument you shouldn't just be throwing a sudo in front of it. thats like getting warned at a gas station not to smoke and saying, in that case ill just shove the cigarette into the tank
[16:28] <joel135> alFReD-NSH: to debug, boot from cd/dvd/usb, issue "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt", check the files in /mnt/var/log, especially dmesg

 im using gnome 3
 on ubuntu
[16:55] <altin>  and is there any way I can install ati x1400 graphic driver for Thinkpad T60
[16:56] <altin> additional drivers didnt find any driver
[16:59] <LittleBallOfHate> altin: different theme is all you can do
[16:59] <LittleBallOfHate> altin: AMD card?
[16:59] <altin> LittleBallOfHate, yes
[17:00] <altin> in fact I have intel centrino processor
[17:00] <Chuck_Norris> altin: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_radeon_2012old
[17:00] <Chuck_Norris> its says: "This testing is quite simple: with a Lenovo ThinkPad T60 that bears a Mobility Radeon X1400 and on the CPU side an Intel Core Duo"
[17:01] <altin> thanks Chuck_Norris
[17:01] <Arrgon> signal check
[17:01] <ace_me> mount -o loop,rw,nosuid,noexec /dev/tmpMnt /tmp
[17:02] <ace_me> it gives me mount: no permission to look at /dev/loop<N>
[17:02] <Chuck_Norris> altin: the title says: "Open-Source R500 Driver Can Compete With Legacy Catalyst" but idk how to install R500 driver =P
[17:02] <escott> ace_me, why would you do that?
[17:02] <LittleBallOfHate> ace_me: sudo
[17:02] <ace_me>  am root
[17:02] <ace_me> but seen that the loop files in the dev are root disk
[17:02] <escott> ace_me, or at least, what is the loop all about
[17:03] <thiebaude> what should i do, lightdm is asking for my sudo password?
[17:03] <ace_me> I try to secure the tmp folder
[17:03] <ace_me> http://www.itsolutionskb.com/2008/10/securing-tmp-vartmp-devshm-partitions/
[17:03] <ace_me> these were not on a partition first so I was advised by csf firewall to secure it and after googling
[17:05] <escott> ace_me, putting the image file in /dev is not appropriate devpts should be managing /dev. you should put it elsewhere like /var
[17:05] <sdfsd> Guys
[17:05] <sdfsd> Where can I get lubuntu-restricted extras?
[17:06] <escott> ace_me, also if the only point in doing this is to get noexec nosuid why not just add that to your fstab when mounting /run and the like?
[17:12] <Gaming4JC> Hey guys, I accidently deleted an .conf/(xml) file I was working on. Anyway I can recover it? I read about scalpel but there doesn't seem to be an option for xml :|
[17:13] <Gaming4JC> application/xml; charset=us-ascii is the filetype...
[17:13] <escott> Gaming4JC, does your text editor not keep a backup
[17:13] <ace_me> escott under /var is the same ! finally I get same mount: no permission to look at /dev/loop<N>
[17:13] <Gaming4JC> escott: no because I Shift+Deleted the whole folder, and thought I had already backed it up on CD... my bad. :P
[17:14] <escott> ace_me, i would just say that not everything you read on the internet is true or a good idea (I know its really confusing!!!) and would suggest you not do what this guy is suggesting
[17:14] <escott> ace_me, if you want noexec,nosuid just add that to your fstab
[17:14] <ace_me> ok escott
[17:15] <escott> ace_me, /run should not have a backing store. /tmp is a more difficult case as some browsers like to save big media files they download for in browser playback to /tmp
[17:15]  * Gaming4JC continues to google about magic numbers and scalpel in attempt to find xml :O
[17:16] <escott> ace_me, and /var/run -> /run

[17:19] <escott> jeffmjack, you just add it with another export command
[17:19] <ion__> so what do I have to do then...?
[17:20] <jeffmjack> so it goes outside that if/then?
[17:20] <melonade> jeffmjack: export PATH=$PATH:<your additions seperated with colons>:
[17:20] <escott> jeffmjack, unless you want to test for the existence of the folder (which is what that if does)
[17:20] <jeffmjack> right okay- i don't need to test for the folder
[17:21] <jeffmjack> so, comment out the if/then and add the export?
[17:21] <jeffmjack> and this goes in .profile, not .bashrc, right?

[17:24] <Fuchs> Orpheon: $PATH  if I got your question correctly

[17:24] <Orpheon> Fuchs, ok
[17:25] <wilhart> where do i see my motherboard vendor name
[17:25] <wilhart> what motherboard this uses
[17:25] <Orpheon> Fuchs, no, locate is not what I mean. When I install lmms via ubuntu repository, it gets downloaded somewhere. I want to know that somewhere.
[17:25] <jeffmjack> melonade, escott: thanks for the help :)_
[17:26] <Fuchs> Orpheon: ah, these are package repos
[17:26] <Orpheon> It has to be some standarized spot
[17:26] <sdfsd> What's the name of the Nvidia HW acceleration package?
[17:26] <Fuchs> Orpheon: /etc/apt/sources.list  or the files in the directory of a similar name
[17:27] <LjL> Orpheon: the .deb packages get downloaded into /var/cache/apt/archives. if you instead want to see where the *files* are, "dpkg -L packagename"

[17:32] <D[4]ni> the ubuntu archive manager can unpack some windows installer packages ending in .exe - how would i do that from a terminal?
[17:32] <D[4]ni> plain unzip did _not_ work.
[17:33] <escott> D[4]ni, i think you would have to find the beginning of the zip archive which is in the middle of that exe

[17:35] <D[4]ni> uhm, doesn't sound very funny

[17:43] <Ansikt> On Ubuntu server, how to I attach to a wireless network?
[17:43] <D[4]ni> Gaming4JC, escott: p7zip seems to do the job
[17:44] <Tenoch> Have any of you guys tried absenthe 2.0, it is to brake jail iphone, ipad etc?
[17:44] <Gaming4JC> D[4]ni: neat, I thought it only opened lzma.
[17:44] <D[4]ni> who knows, perhaps nullsoft uses lzma
[17:47] <wo33lock> ok
[17:50] <iceroot> Tenoch: ##apple
[17:50] <Tenoch> ok
[17:50] <iceroot> Tenoch: and dont buy products which needs something like that first until they are usable
[17:51] <root____3> I need help with Backtrack r2 KDE, Im having an issue,
[17:51] <root____3>                    whenever i open a program of any kind it  may freeze
[17:51] <iceroot> !backtrack | root____3
[17:51] <DJones> !backtrack | root____3
[17:51] <root____3> ty
[17:51] <root____3> uhhh #backtrack-linux doesnt exist
[17:51] <iceroot> !rootirc | root____3
[17:52] <iceroot> !alis | root____3
[17:52] <djdan2k8> could anyone here give me advice on downgrading php or point me to a channel that cn
[17:52] <ikonia> root____3: #backtrack-linux does exist
[17:52] <iceroot> djdan2k8: downgrade is not supported
[17:52] <djdan2k8> so it cant be done
[17:53] <ikonia> djdan2k8: how did you install php ?
[17:53] <root____3> why wont it let me go there?
[17:53] <root____3>  /join #backtrack-linux
[17:53] <root____3> doesnt work
[17:53] <ikonia> root____3: because you are using the account root
[17:53] <djdan2k8> ikonia it was installed with plesk panel
[17:53] <ikonia> root____3: all the info is listed on their website, or ask in #freenode for help
[17:53] <__Alex_> djdan2k8: It can be done, it's just not allowed. I know how to do it though, it's simple
[17:53] <ikonia> djdan2k8: on a hosting provider machine ?
[17:53] <djdan2k8> yes ikonia
[17:54] <iceroot> djdan2k8: dont downgrade php on such a machine!!!
[17:54] <ikonia> djdan2k8: ok, hosting providers can do things very different from the norm, more so as machines are often shared.
[17:54] <iceroot> djdan2k8: only!! use the version from the repos
[17:54] <ikonia> djdan2k8: I'd suggest contacting your hosting provider if you want any changes done to the machine
[17:54] <RBV> Why would you want an older, less secure version of -php-
[17:55] <ikonia> RBV: some applications have functions that have changed in newer versions of php, and therefore don't work
[17:55] <wilx> ikonia: Upgrade applications as well?
[17:56] <RBV> Sounds like if the application isn't supported in the current version of PHP you have other issues
[17:56] <ikonia> wilx: sorry what ?
[17:56] <ikonia> RBV: that's not true, but if you think that, then that's your business and you need to pick applications you are confortable with
[17:56] <djdan2k8> the reason for it is a joomla extension i need dosnt work on 5.3
[17:57] <ikonia> djdan2k8: contacting your hosting provider would be step one, contacting the joomla guys for help getting it to work with 5.3 would be another option
[17:57] <deostroll> Hi I am having a compiz problem...it kind of has disabled the unity desktop's application launcher
[17:57] <deostroll> How do I get it back
[17:58] <deostroll> even alt-tab isn't working now
[17:58] <RBV> oh god joomla
[17:58] <djdan2k8> i will try that thank you
[18:01] <Dice-Man> hi
[18:01] <Dice-Man> i wonder if usb 3.0 is compatible with 2.0
[18:02] <RBV> Sure it's backwards-compatible
[18:03] <dehibernate> only on regular USB though
[18:03] <Avrem> does the default ubuntu mysql distro install with a database "test"?
[18:03] <iceroot> ##hardware
[18:03] <iceroot> Avrem: no
[18:03] <dehibernate> Micro USB 3.0 has a different connector
[18:05] <RBV> Avrem: log in and do 'show databases;'
[18:05] <notwist> does anyone know of a good guide/article about what to do with your ubuntu server? I just installed mine, got SSH up and running and everything but I'm not really sure what to do with it :)
[18:05] <dsdad> hi
[18:05] <Avrem> RBV, I did. I did a show database and see a db called "test" created. Not sure where it came from -- which makes me slightly paranoid
[18:06] <RBV> Avrem: are there any users that look out of the ordinary?
[18:10] <RBV> What's in the database?
[18:11] <NateTut> Is anyone available to help me with a e-mail setup question?
[18:12] <RBV> NateTut: Just ask
[18:13] <NateTut> OK, I would like to setup mail on Ubuntu to use my Yahoo SMTP address for sending, specifically I need to e-mail from scripts using Yahoo
[18:13] <sdfsd> I am trying to compile something: Unable to locate package polkit-gobject-1
[18:13] <sdfsd> who can help me?
[18:15] <RBV> Nate: what have you tried so far?
[18:16] <sdfsd> where can I get polkit?
[18:16] <NateTut> I have searched & searched to no avail. I have gone through the tutorial on the Ubuntu site, but it does not apply to my situation. I can setup a client like Thunderbird no problem, but I need to e-mail from the command line/scripts
[18:17] <RBV> Did you get the server names, port names and everything from Yahoo?
[18:17] <Gaming4JC> sdfsd:  http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=polkit-gobject-1
[18:17] <jkl7> I plugged a usb wifi doggle to my pc, I am able to connect to the access point through the GUI, I wonder the command to the access point on the terminal?
[18:18] <NateTut> Yeah, I've got all that stuff, I can setup a client fine, I want the OS to use it too.
[18:18] <RBV> NateTut: Do you know are you using sendmail or what?
[18:18] <NateTut> I have tried sendmail and another alternative who's name escapes me.
[18:19] <RBV> postfix?
[18:19] <NateTut> Yes, that's it, postfix.
[18:19] <sdfsd> Gaming4JC: Thanks, that was already installed, but I've found a -dev version and now my thing works!!! Ty
[18:19] <Guest91364> teenagemutantninjaturtle
[18:19] <Gaming4JC> np :)
[18:20] <RBV> NateTut: well, you just need to edit the configuration file to use the settings from Yahoo. Then do a test email message, and if it doesn't work look at the logs to see why
[18:20] <NateTut> which config files? Is this for sendmail?
[18:20] <RBV> NateTut: for either one
[18:21] <RBV> This is for gmail but you should be to alter for yahoo http://drewdahl.com/2010/02/18/setup-sendmail-to-use-gmails-smtp-server/
[18:21] <NateTut> Thanks, I'm sure I can adapt it.
[18:22] <Gaming4JC> NateTut: If using a non-paid for Yahoo account Good luck with anything from Yahoo Mail. I tried Freepops and it failed epically.
[18:22] <sdfsd> Hmm
[18:22] <Womkes> When I SSH from my Ubuntu desktop to one of my Ubuntu servers the SSH connection seems to die just after a few minutes. It's not disconnected e.g. that it turns back to the terminal @ my desktop but it is unresponsive, cannot enter any commands. Why does this happen and how can I fix it.
[18:22] <sdfsd> guys, how do I uninstall a program installed from source code using GIT?
[18:22] <RBV> Womkes: adjust timeouts on the server?
[18:22] <RBV> sdfsd: make uninstall
[18:22] <NateTut> I have a paid Yahoo acct.
[18:23] <brandonj> sdfsd: sometimes you can run 'make uninstall' from the source directory
[18:23] <sdfsd> Thanks guys
[18:23] <Gaming4JC> NateTut: should work then. :)
[18:25] <jkl7> I plugged a usb wifi doggle to my pc, I am able to connect to the access point through the GUI, I wonder the command to the access point on the terminal?
[18:25] <escott> sdfsd, next time use checkinstall
[18:25] <sdfsd> escott: what's that?
[18:26] <escott> !checkinstall | sdfsd
[18:26] <RBV> jkl7: http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/iwconfig8.html
[18:26] <sdfsd> thanks
[18:26] <sdfsd> anyways, how can I see the version of a package installed from source? dpkg -s does not work on it
[18:27] <escott> sdfsd, if you installed by hand using ./configure; make; make install then dpkg doesnt know about it
[18:27] <hashset_> new ubuntu/linux user..  having trouble getting Eclipse Indigo to run at all after extraction
[18:27] <sdfsd> so, yeah
[18:27] <sdfsd> that's what I did
[18:27] <RBV> sdfsd: go back to the directory the source is in. You are learning why package management tools exist
[18:27] <brandonj> sdfsd: the easiest way is usually to run the program on the terminal with the --version flag
[18:28] <brandonj> sdfsd: but it's different with each package, that's why package management is usually good, it adds some standardization
[18:29] <Womkes> Is it a server side problem then RBV, or client side ?
[18:30] <anthony__> testing, testing, 123
[18:30] <RBV> Womkes: what is ServerAliveInterval set at on your machine (in ssh_config)
[18:31] <otibom_> Can I make right super (only, not left) to behave like ctrl simply ? i.e. without complicated editing of keymaps ?
[18:31] <Gaming4JC> anthony__: Mary had a little lamb her fleece was white as snow... yep test worked. Welcome to IRC. ;)
[18:32] <anthony__> cool!
[18:33] <escott> otibom_, the gnome keyboard preferences has lots of predefined mappings
[18:34] <Nonentity> .
[18:34] <otibom_> escott, yes I've investigated that already. It seems you can't treat both super keys differently.
[18:35] <Womkes> RBV, it is not configured
[18:35] <Womkes> I should set it to 60 sec or so ?
[18:36] <RBV> Sure, that will send a keepalive every 60 seconds' so that you don't get disconnected
[18:38] <Womkes> ok thanks
[18:38] <Womkes> I can so the same server side right?
[18:39] <Womkes> with ClientAlive
[18:39] <Ansikt> Just installed ubuntu server on my computer, but it doesn't want to boot.  I'm in my system via chroot right now.  Any suggestions?
[18:39] <RBV> Womkes: Yea but it's easier to configure 1 client than 50 servers
[18:40] <Ansikt> When i boot, it just hangs at black screen with a blinking cursor.  What could be the issue?
[18:41] <RBV> Ansikt: re install the bootloader
[18:42] <escott> !nomodeset | Ansikt would seem odd for a server but maybe
[18:50] <Womkes> The .ssh directory should be chmodded to 700 right? and the authorized_keys file to 600 ?
[18:50] <LittleBallOfHate> yes
[18:51] <dvs-> Hey. Got a problem. Im running on windows 7 now and i did an ubuntu windowsinstall. This didnt work properly, so i went back into windows and deleted the "ubuntu" folder. I then did a partition install from USB that was sucsessfull. The problem now is that when i boot i can choose between "Windows 7" and "unbuntu". If i choose "ubuntu" it says that some file in /ubuntu/winboot/.. is missing.
[18:51] <dvs-> Anyone know what to do?
[18:51] <dvs-> seems its still trying to boot the "Windowsinstall" instead of the proper one
[18:52] <LittleBallOfHate> never messed with a wubi install
[18:52] <GeeksOnHugs> I downloaded a theme, how do I install it?  this is the theme: http://www.ubuntuthemes.org/blue-joy.html
[18:52] <LittleBallOfHate> you can hit e i think and edit the boot line in grub if you know what partition and such it's on
[18:53] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: extract to ~/.Themes I think
[18:53] <dvs-> LittleBallOfHate: well, i guess i can find the partition, but where dont know how to change the boot line
[18:54] <LittleBallOfHate> dvs-: think it's esc and then highlight the ubuntu line and hit e
[18:57] <rodrigo> tienes argentinos????
[18:57] <LjL> !ar | rodrigo
[18:59] <GeeksOnHugs> LittleBallOfHate : I did a search for themes and don't see it where should it be?
[19:00] <cypher-neo> When I'm configuring update-alternatives to select my default browser, I see Chromium listed twice. One entry is "Auto mode" and the other entry is "Manual mode"? What's the difference between auto and manual mode?
[19:00] <solid91_> Hi everibody...can someone help me to connect my guitar with qjack and rakarrack? i have some problems
[19:00] <GeeksOnHugs> oh wait, tilde means root right
[19:00] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: your home dir
[19:00] <LittleBallOfHate> and it's .themes or .Themes I can't remember
[19:01] <GeeksOnHugs> I don't have either in my home directory nor "file system"
[19:01] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: ls -a in your home
[19:02] <GeeksOnHugs> ok, yep tried that and lots of dot somethings but no dot theme
[19:02] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: so mkdir .themes
[19:02] <GeeksOnHugs> ok cool
[19:02] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: then extract the zip into there
[19:02] <GeeksOnHugs> caps or no?
[19:02] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: might want to google "install gnome theme"
[19:02] <GeeksOnHugs> kk ty
[19:03] <GeeksOnHugs> I have unity, is that the same as gnome?
[19:03] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: nope
[19:03] <GeeksOnHugs> OK so I need to search for unity themes I guess
[19:03] <LittleBallOfHate> GeeksOnHugs: yup
[19:03] <GeeksOnHugs> kk, thanks
[19:06] <solid91_> someone can help me with qjack?
[19:07] <bluezone> Gnome sucks, unity sucks, and i don't like kde. Any other viable desktop environments? ;D
[19:07] <notwist> bluezone plenty. xfce and lxde come to mind
[19:07] <Zally666> Forget tv tuner
[19:07] <notwist> bluezone they are both available in the forms of xubuntu and lubuntu
[19:08] <bluezone> but i can still install them in the desktop version?
[19:08] <GeeksOnHugs> i found an application myunity that does it all :)
[19:09] <Womkes> When you have a crosslink between two servers on eth1 is it nessacary to specify the network and broadcast parameters in /etc/network/interfaces or simply put in address and netmask and be done with it ?
[19:10] <notwist> bluezone just do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and you can choose between gnome and xfce at login
[19:10] <notwist> bluezone note that it does take up some space
[19:10] <rgenito> i just updated my kernel from 2.6 to 3.2
[19:10] <rgenito> (ubuntu 11.04)
[19:10] <rgenito> now X is failing to load...
[19:11] <escott> rgenito, what kind of graphics card
[19:11] <rgenito> radeon HD =X
[19:11] <rgenito> when running kernel 2.6, this all worked fine (the graphics card and such)
[19:11] <escott> rgenito, and where did you get the drivers
[19:11] <rgenito> however, i get an error when X starts
[19:12] <rgenito> escott: got the drivers from AMD's site
[19:12] <escott> rgenito, then thats your problem
[19:12] <notwist> rgenito have you tried selecting the old kernel then? isn't it still there in the startup options?
[19:12] <rgenito> escott: what is my problem? the fact that i got the drivers from the vendor's site?
[19:13] <notwist> rgenito probably that the vendor drivers breaks compability with new kernels, and open source drivers usually dont.. or something to that extent
[19:13] <rgenito> notwist: well, i have to use at least kernel 3.0.0-19, or else i have to patch 2.6 to get some usb device features
[19:13] <notwist> rgenito try removing proprietary drivers and reconfiguring x
[19:13] <escott> rgenito, yes. you are supposed to use jockey-gtk, but since you didnt you are responsible for mantaining compatibility
[19:13] <rgenito> notwist: oh? i have no idea how to do those :(
[19:13] <rgenito> btw i'm running this machine headless lol
[19:13] <rgenito> only using bare X because the GPUs require it
[19:14] <notwist> rgenito if reinstalling is an option, that's probably the fastest route. otherwise you need to google how to remove radeon drivers and reconfigure x (which will fall back on default drivers)
[19:15] <Jake7> I'm running 12.04 LTS. Some random time during the session I'll lose the KB shortcuts; Ctrl-Alt-T (terminal) and Alt-F2 (run app). I can't reproduce it. I can't see anything in the logs that stands out. They're there, then they're not. Anyone else seen this?
[19:15] <rgenito> notwist: thanks for the info, i think i'll just install 12.04 from scratch then
[19:15] <rgenito> now, any recommendations for installing 12.04 when i dont have a cdrom drive? :D
[19:16] <smw> rgenito, usb drive
[19:17] <smw> rgenito, although it kills all data on a usb drive, I have found that just doing a dd from the iso to the usb (sdb or whatever) works perfectly
[19:20] <MiJyn> bbl
[19:20] <WillPittenger> I'm trying to add a repository on my local hard drive to Synaptic.  But the Add Source button is disabled.  The command line is as follows >>>> rpmdir /media/sf_WinDocs/My\ Downloaded\ Files/Apache/Open\ Office/ precise main
[19:21] <WillPittenger> I tried putting the path in quotes.  That path is actually on the host's drive.
[19:21] <DexterF> hi
[19:21] <dhaval> HELP, when i try to run any shell script, it opens with a editor, doest not run. How to EXECUTE it?
[19:21] <notwist> rgenito are you on a windows machine right now?
[19:21] <WillPittenger> Hence the "sf_" prefix to the folder.
[19:21]  * robinder is using a BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps running Android 2.3.3 (<IP_ADDRESS>)
[19:21] <notwist> rgenito in that case, download unetbootin to put the iso on a usb, then boot from that
[19:21] <notwist> dhaval try ./scriptfilename
[19:22] <DexterF> moved root partition, updated etc. now how do I tell grub about the new config? grub-mkconfig from a chroot to the root partition generates a proper menu.cfg, but how do I install it?
[19:22] <dhaval> notwist: i dont know ANY linux command
[19:22] <notwist> DexterF maybe http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/update-grub.8.html ?
[19:23] <notwist> dhaval time to learn some then :)
[19:23] <WillPittenger> Is there a channel somewhere specific to Synaptic?
[19:23] <notwist> dhaval cd is for changing folders, ls is for listing folder contents. go to the folder and type ./thefileyouwanttorun
[19:23] <escott> !rpm | WillPittenger
[19:24] <WillPittenger> escott: Synaptic supports RPM.
[19:24] <escott> WillPittenger, and this channel doesnt
[19:24] <moduspwnins> dhaval: you may need to make the file "executable" (Right-click, properties, permissions, "allow executing file as program"
[19:24] <dhaval> notwist: i tried that command, it says permission denied. (I am the administrator.)
[19:24] <DexterF> dhaval, get yourself a copy of O'reilly's excellent "Linux in a nutshell".
[19:25] <notwist> dhaval as mentioned, is it executable?
[19:25] <dhaval> notwist its a tor's bundle
[19:25] <ashka> Hello
[19:25] <species_4981> dhaval - go here and learn; the book is very very good too http://www.linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php
[19:25] <moduspwnins> hello ashka
[19:25] <ashka> I've been trying to setup a touchscreen on precise lately, and I need the driver which is named hidtouch suite
[19:26] <ashka> but it won't compile, here's the log http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034317/
[19:26] <escott> DexterF, update-grub will put the grub files in the correct place. and you should think about transitioning to grub2
[19:27] <jeremiah> Ok, i needs some help. I was being a punk and was messing around with the icons on the left hand side toolbar, and i clicked remove from launcher for my minecraft tab or whatever. how do i bring it back??
[19:27] <DexterF> notwist, ah, ok, thanks.
[19:27] <e64i> Hey, I want to know which grub have ubuntu 11.10, grub or grub2?
[19:28] <notwist> jeremiah just start it, then right click and choose to keep it in the dock
[19:28] <escott> e64i, most have transitioned to grub2 by now
[19:28] <iceroot> e64i: grub2
[19:28] <DexterF> escott, it is grub2. so update-grub then does not apply?
[19:28] <jeremiah> notwist,  on the window? there is no option for that.
[19:29] <trism> ashka: looks like the driver needs patching for recent xorg, IDevPtr was removed, see: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2010-November/015496.html
[19:29] <KRomo> is it better to shutdown my pc or seit to suspend?
[19:29] <KRomo> desktop
[19:29] <notwist> jeremiah no on the actual icon in the dock to your left. if the program is running, right click that icon and choose to keep it in the dock even after the program is closed
[19:29] <escott> DexterF, update-grub is how it works with grub2 and i believe it is also supposed to work with grub2
[19:29] <escott> DexterF, update-grub is how it works with grub2 and i believe it is also supposed to work with grub1
[19:29] <DexterF> escott, notwist, well, update-grub2 essentially does the same, seems they are linked.
[19:29] <notwist> KRomo suspend only saves power
[19:29] <notwist> KRomo if you want a fast boot then suspend is an option
[19:29] <KRomo> might as well save power i guess
[19:30] <DexterF> what I don't get is why it now won't see my windows partition... I mounted proc and dev as binds before chrooting, should see the partition...
[19:30] <jeremiah> notwist, that is the prob. it no longer appears on the dock. i open it, and it is open, but not on the dock.
[19:30] <notwist> KRomo if its a laptop you should shut it down so it doesnt take any power at all
[19:30] <ashka> trism: oh, okay
[19:30] <ashka> do you have any recent patch for that ?
[19:30] <notwist> jeremiah how do you start minecraft to begin with?
[19:30] <trism> ashka: no, where did you get the source?
[19:30] <ashka> here http://sourceforge.net/projects/hidtouchsuite/
[19:30] <jeremiah> i double click on it.
[19:31] <jeremiah> notwist,  i double click on it
[19:31] <Smilex> if I'm running 64bit ubuntu, how can I get 32 bit packages? I'm specifically looking for libcurl 32 bit
[19:32] <escott> Smilex, apt-get install libcurl:i386
[19:32] <dhaval> what is the noobs channel?
[19:32] <KRomo> i might be looking for a new computer in the next with ubuntu as the os would it be dumb to buy a 27" imac for ubuntu? will everything work? i like the hardware
[19:32] <jrib> dhaval: this channel is for all levels
[19:32] <jeremiah> notwist, it is a jar file set to open with openjdk

[19:33] <dhaval> jrib when i try to open tor browser, i get permission denied error. i am the administrator
[19:33] <Smilex> escott, thanks
[19:33] <jrib> dhaval: you'll have to ask the channel about that
[19:33] <notwist> jeremiah have you tried just dragging and dropping the jar file to the dock?
[19:33] <Yankees52> is there a way to move the top left buttons of the window to the right side like windows and the old ubuntu?
[19:34] <jeremiah> notwist,  can't. it is a jar file
[19:34] <dhaval> jrib what channel? its a software i wanna run..
[19:34] <jrib> dhaval: this channel is fine if you're on ubuntu...
[19:34] <Yankees52> or is there a way to get the old ubuntu back?

[19:34] <dvs-> Hey. Anyone here that can help me add a ubuntu partition install to bcdedit in windows 7?
[19:34] <species_4981> dhaval - if you run the Tor application from terminal, you can run it as a super user by typing sudo then the command then enter and type your password
[19:35] <dhaval> thanks
[19:35] <Yankees52> so is unity basically built on top of gnome 3 like cinnamon is?
[19:35] <chu> Yankees52: Yep.
[19:35] <wylde_> Yankees52: unity is a shell, yes
[19:36] <DNFTT> !ops | please hang yourself ,,, UBUNTU will die soon from a virus pandemy please switch to WINDOWS 7 and enjoy safety and stability of the sistem!!!
[19:36] <DJones> DNFTT: Don't troll
[19:36] <escott> Yankees52, not to the same extent. i think cinnamon uses the same WM as does shell, just rescripted.
[19:36] <Yankees52> i really dont know what to use cinnamon or unity, i love cinnamon but it is too buggy, and i hate unity for the fact its to much like the mac
[19:37] <wylde_> Yankees52: there's plenty of other options for a desktop environment.
[19:37] <feed_the_troll> !ops | please hang yourself ,,, UBUNTU will die soon from a virus pandemy please switch to WINDOWS 7 and enjoy safety and stability of the sistem!!!
[19:37] <Yankees52> wylde: yeah i know KDE, XFCE
[19:38] <dangbarry> lol
[19:38] <escott> Yankees52, you can just install gnome-panel
[19:38] <dvs-> My unbuntu did not create a boot-file in bcdedit, does anyone know how to add this manually?
[19:38] <jeremiah> notwist,  take it as you can no longer help
[19:39] <e64i> so my friend is having this error "ERROR: hd0 out of disk" in ubuntu 11.10, what is it?

[19:41] <wylde_> !language | dhaval
[19:41] <alrea7> yessssssssssssssssss
[19:41] <ikonia> dhaval: stop with the language please.
[19:41] <dhaval> ikonia please help me
[19:41] <ikonia> dhaval: with what ?
[19:41] <alrea7> knolesge for all
[19:42] <ikonia> dhaval: actually - someone else can help, I'm not going to reward someone for just spewing bad language into the channel.
[19:42] <dhaval> ikonia i want to run tor browser. when i open the script file, it opens in an editor, doesnt execute.
[19:43] <ikonia> dhaval: someone in the channel will get to you when they have time/know the answer
[19:43] <dangbarry> dhaval: whats the extension?
[19:43] <wylde_> sylflo: 'sudo ifdown' then 'sudo ifup' should work.
[19:43] <species_4981> dhaval did you start looking through the website I pointed you towards? You need to set the shell script via CHMOD 755, for example ...
[19:44] <Guest6985> oi
[19:44] <irgendwer4711> hi, somehow my own kernel got installed outside DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST in grub menu
[19:44] <dhaval> dangbarry .py
[19:44] <buh823> Ikonia is a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[19:44] <dhaval> species_4981 dont have time for any tutes.... i got exams tmrw, and have some imp work to do with linux
[19:44] <thinced> dhaval, You probably need just x-flag. Open terminal and "cd /path/to/directory"
[19:45] <thinced> then chmod u+x file.py
[19:45] <dangbarry> yea!
[19:45] <ironhalik> is there a way to direct grub to boot into specific OS on next reboot?
[19:45] <species_4981> dhaval - got it. Good luck then.
[19:45] <eok> didn't know this channel had trolls :)
[19:45] <buh823> Ikonia is a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[19:45] <dangbarry> lol, Trolls are funny!
[19:45] <irgendwer4711> ironhalik: did speak to me?
[19:45] <hashset_> having trouble with wine configuration and Spotify..  can anyone help?
[19:46] <ironhalik> irgendwer4711: if you know the answer, then yes
[19:46] <irgendwer4711> ironhalik: no
[19:46] <ironhalik> :)
[19:46] <ashka> trism: found anything ? I didn't highlight you before, but just in case you missed it : http://sourceforge.net/projects/hidtouchsuite/
[19:47] <wylde_> !wine | hashset_
[19:47] <eok> hashset_ dunno if this is useful to you, but grooveshark.com has a pretty good library of music
[19:47] <dhaval> thinced did the same thing. it just skips to new line. without running the software, without showing error
[19:47] <eok> hashset_ i use it when on ubuntu istead of messing with wine
[19:48] <dangbarry> dhaval run it in a terminal!
[19:48] <eok> hashset_ but thats because im lazy :P
[19:48] <OerHeks> hashset_, there is a spotify client for ubuntu >> http://www.spotify.com/nl/download/previews/
[19:48] <dhaval> dangbarry it says permissions denied
[19:49] <thinced> dhaval, you can ofcourse execute program from command line :). "./file.pyC"
[19:49] <thinced> dhaval, you can ofcourse execute program from command line :). "./file.py"
[19:49] <dangbarry> change the permissions with the chmod u+x first!
[19:50] <dhaval> dangbarry thinced thanks got through it. but why it wont open with simple double click?
[19:50] <eok> dhaval: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[19:51] <dhaval> eok it will open, but in an editor, it wont execute
[19:51] <trism> ashka: didn't find anyone working on it, so even if we get it to compile, it probably won't work right, but I'll see if I can get it to compile
[19:51] <vincenzo> ciao
[19:51] <vincenzo> list|
[19:51] <vincenzo> list|
[19:51] <vincenzo> list!
[19:51] <EDawg878> How do you setup an sftp so a person can remotely acess a folder?
[19:51] <thinced> dhaval, right click the file and then "Open with other application. Specify python there"
[19:51] <DJones> !list > vincenzo
[19:51] <ashka> okay, thanks trism
[19:51] <eok> dhaval, is it executable?
[19:51] <dangbarry> dhaval it will but the terminal will show any errors.!
[19:52] <wylde_> !openssh | EDawg878
[19:53] <Womkes> In the drbd.conf file can you use /dev/srv2/vm1 to point to your LVM volume or do you need to use /dev/mapper/srv2-vm1?
[19:53] <notwist> EDawg878 create a normal user and make sure SSH access is enabled. done :)
[19:53] <dhaval> what is error 126
[19:54] <wylde_> EDawg878: essentially, you have to install openssh-server and forward a port on your router.
[19:54] <hashset_> Thanks OerHecks, I'm new to ubuntu and am not sure what I am supposed to do with those instructions
[19:54] <e64i> so my friend is having this error "ERROR: hd0 out of disk" in ubuntu 11.10, what is it?
[19:54] <armence> Hello all. How can I check if there is an ecryptfs module installed?
[19:54] <eok> dhaval, are you trying to run a python script?
[19:55] <dhaval> eok YES
[19:55] <wylde_> armence: lsmod?
[19:55] <eok> dhaval, have you tried the scipt in the interpreter first?
[19:55] <eok> script*
[19:55] <EDawg878> i know that but how will i be able to limit the sftp to a specific folder?
[19:55] <armence> wuj_, OK, what package is it in if I don't have it installed?
[19:55] <iceroot> EDawg878: chroot
[19:56] <dhaval> eok what is interpreter? the thing i am supposed to is very simple. i just have to execute it. i didnt make it.
[19:56] <escott> EDawg878, http://www.minstrel.org.uk/papers/sftp/
[19:56] <wylde_> dhaval: in your case since the file has a .py extension. Python.
[19:57] <wylde_> !python | dhaval
[19:57] <dhaval> i have installed python
[19:57] <EDawg878> escott, thanks
[19:57] <iceroot> dhaval: without python installed your system would not start :)
[19:57] <wylde_> dhaval: then that is your interpreter.
[19:57] <Seryth> How can I use pastebinit to paste a file from terminal?
[19:57] <iceroot> Seryth: cat file | pastebinit
[19:58] <Seryth> iceroot: thanks.
[19:58] <dhaval> MAN why is linux so.... linux must be created by some women.
[19:58] <iceroot> dhaval: no need for that here
[19:58] <eok> dhaval, what happens when you write python in the terminal?
[19:58] <wylde_> dhaval: no, it just doesn't hide it's inner working from it's users :)
[19:58] <dhaval> it gives error 126
[19:59] <eok> when you just write python?
[19:59] <eok> and hit enter
[19:59] <escott> dhaval, you might as well say "a light is blinking"
[19:59] <dangbarry> lol
[19:59] <eok> dhaval, you might need to install python
[20:00] <guntbert> !details | e64i
[20:00] <dhaval> dafuq i am quitting. i have more important finals starting from tomorrow. i wanted to run tor and then torshammer. eok i have installed python

[20:02] <prashant171992> hey i m getting Write failed: Connection reset by peer
[20:02] <prashant171992> in ssh
[20:02] <prashant171992> plz help
[20:02] <escott> prashant171992, means that your server is hanging up on your for some reason
[20:02] <prashant171992> so what to do next ??
[20:03] <prashant171992> i have my port 22 open..
[20:03] <escott> prashant171992, is the server yours as well?
[20:03] <wylde_> prashant171992: troubleshoot the server if you have access, or notify the server admin :)
[20:03] <xLRDx> hmm ok so i am trying to give user1 user2 user3 access to user4 with su but without password how can i achieve this
[20:03] <ashka> prashant171992: type sudo service ssh restart on your server
[20:03] <prashant171992> no i m in college
[20:04] <guntbert> !sudo | xLRDx
[20:04] <xLRDx> can i limit sudo to a certain script?
[20:04] <ashka> if the server is not yours, notify the owner of the server that he has a problem with ssh
[20:04] <escott> prashant171992, its not on your end. you might try enabling a keepalive packet, but its not so far as you can tell anything you are doing http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/connection-reset-by-peer-335753/
[20:04] <ashka> !visudo | xLRDx
[20:05] <ashka> well.
[20:05] <wylde_> xLRDx: how about adding user 1,2,3 to user4's usergroup and adjust the group permission on the directory/files.
[20:05] <Dj_FlyBy{MS}> I am trying to remove a package via synaptics and it keeps wanting to remove gnome with it, but I DON'T want gnome removed, just the package
[20:05] <Dj_FlyBy{MS}> how does one do this?
[20:05] <xLRDx> wylde_, i have done that already
[20:05] <escott> xLRDx, yes see man sudoers
[20:05] <xLRDx> user1,2,3 are in his group but it still ask's for user4's password
[20:05] <xLRDx> mk thanks escott
[20:06] <escott> xLRDx, but i would say try and do this throw file permissions if possible. if you can be more specific about what you are doing that is asking for user4's password that would help
[20:07] <wylde_> xLRDx: if the usergroup permissions are right each user would use their own password.
[20:07] <wylde_> xLRDx: errr file permissions
[20:07] <dhaval> There should be NOOBS channel, so that experts dont get annoyed when dummies like me ask questions.
[20:08] <xLRDx> user4 will never be used its just a user to run the script as sort of like the apache2's user
[20:08] <designbybeck_> I do a lot with Photos/Images.. One things I can never figure out is why when you go to upload a photo to any website, you can't see the thumbnail in the dialog box
[20:08] <wylde_> dhaval: #ubuntu-beginners
[20:08] <guntbert> dhaval: there is #ubuntu-beginners, but we don't get annoyed at your questions
[20:08] <escott> xLRDx, but what does the script do
[20:09] <designbybeck_> It is frustrating, why doesn't the, I'm assuming Nautilus dialog box, have the option to show thumbnails, or even simple rename/copy and paste from within that dialog box
[20:09] <xLRDx> it starts up a screen session and then runs minecraft yes i know minecraft
[20:09] <designbybeck_> That is always one thing I missed from my windows days
[20:11] <gmachine_24> Using 11.04, in the past two weeks or so I can no longer connect to my home network using my laptop's wireless card. I've been running Ubuntu 11.04 on this laptop, a Lenovo G550  with a Broadcomm BCM5906M wireless
[20:12] <scar3crow> I need help with kompozer or a bettwr wysisyg editor please
[20:12] <gmachine_24> for a long time. Wired network works ok. Other laptops can connect no problem.
[20:13] <gmachine_24> I have tried wicd and gnome-manager (or whatever it is called). the laptop can 'see' my network but cannot connect. keeps saying the password is incorrect but it is correct
[20:13] <dhaval>  i have installed IDLE. how do i run a python script in there? it wont show IDLE in open-with-other-application option.
[20:14] <gmachine_24> Oh - I've tried different routers as well. Still does not connect.
[20:14] <eok> dhaval, you said earlier that you got an error when typing python in terminal, was that correct?
[20:14] <EDawg878> When typing "apt-get build-dep openssh-server" is there really 73 dependencies for openssh?
[20:15] <eok> dhaval: that should not give an error, but put you in the python interpreter mode
[20:16] <wylde_> EDawg878: uhh why would you be compiling it when it's already in the repos?
[20:16] <EDawg878> so i can patch it
[20:16] <escott> EDawg878, why do you need to patch it
[20:16] <ikonia> EDawg878: why do you need to patch it ?
[20:16] <EDawg878> http://www.zephid.dk/2007/11/20/getting-the-power-of-sftp-chroot-in-debian/
[20:16] <EDawg878> idk i was following that?
[20:17] <EDawg878> Is there a better way?
[20:17] <ikonia> EDawg878: that guide is quite old, have you checked if you need to do that in the current versions ?
[20:17] <wylde_> EDawg878: that is a very old article for one...2007...
[20:17] <EDawg878> yeah i realize
[20:18] <ikonia> EDawg878: have you checked the functionality in the current version ?
[20:18] <escott> EDawg878, http://www.minstrel.org.uk/papers/sftp/ this should work out of the box
[20:18] <EDawg878> i am going to now
[20:18] <ikonia> EDawg878: always check before rushing into major tasks like rebuilding
[20:19] <EDawg878> escott, that guide tell me to patch it..
[20:19] <EDawg878> and it is also old from 2008
[20:19] <trism> ashka: sorry, took a look and it just needs too many changes to get it up to date with the latest xorg, I'm not confident it would work correctly after I patched it (since I don't have a device to test it with)
[20:19] <ashka> just give me te
[20:20] <escott> EDawg878, no it doesn't its just a couple options in the sshd_config file
[20:20] <ashka> the patch file trism
[20:20] <ashka> I'll try it out
[20:20] <ashka> oh misread
[20:21] <gmachine_24> So I'm back. 11.04 cannot connect to wireless network after being able to since however long 11.04 has been out.
[20:21] <EDawg878> escott, am I blind I really because all I can't find that part of the guide
[20:21] <EDawg878> each one leads to a guide about patching
[20:22] <escott> EDawg878, http://www.minstrel.org.uk/papers/sftp/builtin/
[20:23] <EDawg878> oh okay compiling that part is irrelevant i got it
[20:23] <figure002> hello. I had some harddisk failures and now i'm trying to fix those with fsck. I get the following question: "Entry 'videos' in / (2) has deleted/unused inode 466945.  Clear<y>?". Should I answer yes or no?
[20:23] <escott> EDawg878, you dont even need to compile it
[20:23] <urlwolf> on system settings > multimedia > phonon I cannot set up my preferred soundcard, it doesn't show in the list
[20:23] <urlwolf> running kde
[20:23] <EDawg878> escott, yeah i just realized that
[20:23] <escott> EDawg878, you can skip straight to #7
[20:23] <EDawg878> yea
[20:24] <michele_> hi!  how i can install a  .tar.gr or .tar.bz2 file?
[20:24] <EDawg878> by untarring it then reading the readme file
[20:24] <escott> michele_, (1) don't until you have verified the software is not in apt
[20:24] <wylde_> michele_: what is it that you want to install?
[20:25] <escott> michele_, (2) if its not available in apt and you must have it then use a prefix in the configure step and install to /usr/local or /opt and (3) use checkinstall
[20:26] <ashka> hmm so hidtouchsuite is too outdated
[20:26] <ashka> is there a way to have a hiddev device from /dev/usb/ as a mouse pointer ?
[20:27] <figure002> is there a channel for ubuntu-unrelated linux questions?
[20:27] <ashka> #linux probably
[20:27] <wylde_> figure002:  #linux
[20:27] <figure002> ashka: is that not for the kernel?
[20:27] <ashka> just ask your question there
[20:27] <acicula> its ##linux and its not just about the kernel
[20:28] <figure002> ok, thanks, will try there
[20:28] <prashant171992> my clg authorities are blocking requests from port 22 (to block ssh) using cyberoam , is there any way to get past that... ??
[20:29] <EDawg878> In the guide you showed me can i replace ChrootDirectory %h with a directory other than home?
[20:30] <escott> EDawg878, sure
[20:31] <EDawg878> so ChrootDirectory /home/whatever    ?
[20:31] <urlwolf> is skype 2.2 hell on ubuntu?
[20:31] <andygraybeal_> hey guys, this might be a bit off topic - but i need a video editor that is pretty easy to use.  i've been trying to use Openshot all day, the interface is great and I understand it, but it seems to crash a lot!  Is there something better?
[20:32] <escott> EDawg878, yes. keep in mind thats a global configuration but yes
[20:32] <EDawg878> k
[20:32] <escott> andygraybeal_, pitivi perhaps
[20:33] <andygraybeal_> escott, thanks bro, i will give it a try!
[20:34] <escott> urlwolf, its fairly average for closed source programs
[20:35] <EDawg878> Isnt skype in the repo?
[20:35] <ashka> how do I configure a hiddev to be recognized as a touchpad ?
[20:35] <andygraybeal_> escott, i see Kino as an option too.. do youhave any thoughts about any of them?
[20:35] <escott> andygraybeal_, never used any
[20:36] <andygraybeal_> escott, okay cool thans.
[20:36] <andygraybeal_> *thanks
[20:36] <andygraybeal_> is there a linux video editing channel?
[20:36] <escott> !alis | andygraybeal_
[20:37] <urlwolf> escott: what I mean is that it doesn't freaking work
[20:37] <escott> urlwolf, it works
[20:37] <andygraybeal_> thanks escott
[20:37] <urlwolf> it does, but it has a lot of trouble to pick up audio settings from the OS
[20:37] <urlwolf> I have an usb soundcard, no way to get it to see ti
[20:38] <urlwolf> on kde, with phonon + gstreamer at least
[20:38] <djzn> what's the right package for MOUSE SETTINGS in kde
[20:38] <djzn> because it's not in systemsettings anymore
[20:39] <Socracheese> I have three monitors, one of which is flipped upside down, I have two geforce video cards, is there any chance in hell that I will be able to get that to work?
[20:39] <Socracheese> running ubuntu, i mean
[20:40] <in0cula> it is possible to update unity in ubuntu 11.10?
[20:41]  * cogNeato shakes fist D:
[20:41] <escott> Socracheese, assuming you are using nvidia drivers your problems will be that nvidia doesnt support all of xrandr
[20:42] <EDawg878_> Why does unity get a little distorted when switching to tty and back?
[20:42] <escott> Socracheese, in which case you need to use the nvidia tools to configure the monitors and flip the one upsidedown
[20:42] <Socracheese> escott: you mean nvidia-settings?
[20:42] <escott> Socracheese, i dont know. i dont use nvidia
[20:44] <zykotick9> Socracheese: i've used xrandr (with nvidia) to flip my display sideways, so i'm assume upside down should work as well.
[20:44] <Socracheese> escott: well basically there's a little gui that has a bunch of settings in it but it doesn't say anything about xrand in there or rotation, i read some tutorial about enabling randr in xorg.conf but it didn't work
[20:46] <Socracheese> when I type xrandr into terminal i get "RandR extension missing"
[20:47] <hekate> Hi, I was trying to follow the instructions to install Haskell Platform on Ubuntu 10.04 from here: https://github.com/byrongibson/scripts/blob/master/install/haskell/README.md ; where when I got to the part to run the script with "sudo sh haskell-ghc-install.sh", I get this error: update-alternatives: error: alternative runhaskell can't be slave of ghc: it is a master alternative.
[20:48] <escott> !info ghc | hekate
[20:49] <acicula> hekate: why not install the ubuntu packaged version?
[20:49] <hekate> acicula: haskell-platform is not available on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, that's why
[20:49] <hekate> otherwise I would have just gotten it from the universal repos
[20:50] <acicula> hekate: right, that makes sense :)
[20:51] <acicula> hekate: i think the error means that the install script you are running is trying to set the newly installed version as the preferred option over the already installed version, without a version already being installed
[20:55] <hekate> acicula: so would you recommend installing ghc from the normal ubuntu repos then proceed with the Install Haskell Platform portion of that guide?
[20:56] <EDawg878_> escott, now when to use the sftp i get: Write failed: Broken pipe Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by pee
[20:56] <chocotaco> Hi, everyone!
[20:57] <acicula> hekate: i dont know, its worth a shot trying a packaged version of haskell if its recent enough, or you could fix the install script a little, just comment out running the update-alternatives statement
[20:58] <jiri> Hello, I have just completely removed 11.10 and installed 12.04. It works quite well, but I have same sound rattling issues on shut down or restart. It happens after this ubuntu shut down screen with 5 points loader. Can anyone help me with that?
[21:00] <acicula> hekate: or maybe its a setting in update-alternatives so it undersstands what you are trying to do
[21:00] <hekate> is there a way to override it then, acicula ?
[21:01] <hekate> I think at this point, I'm just going to try to compile GHC 7.4.1 and Haskell Platform by hand
[21:04] <GG111> For some reason, I cannot run executable files with just doing ./$name_of_file , I was able to do that, what did I break ?
[21:08] <hekate> Hi, I'm trying to move from Ubuntu 10.04 to 12.04 and want to make sure I keep my /home the same. My plan is to make a separate partition for /home. I've a live-cd style copy of 12.04 with GParted on a USB flashdrive.
[21:08] <inkjetunito> is there an ubuntu social channel?
[21:09] <hekate> Is there a guide somewhere that I can follow to make sure I partition my /home properly and am able to use it when I overwrite the rest of / to install a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04?
[21:09] <Ben64> you don't have a /home partition now?
[21:10] <hekate> No, I don't. I wish I had figured out to do make one when I first setup this 10.04 computer a couple of years ago.
[21:11] <Ben64> what you will need to do then is-- 1. resize your root partition small enough to have room for /home in the empty space, then create a partition in the empty space, then finally move all your /home to it
[21:11] <Ansikt> Is there a way to make my box act as a switch?  I want to share my network connection.
[21:11] <Ben64> !ics | Ansikt
[21:11] <acicula> hekate: idk, what the program does is just make some symlinks for you
[21:12] <hekate> Ben64: I think I can figure out how to do all that from GParted, then how do I ensure I can use my new /home from 12.04?
[21:12] <acicula> hekate: so all you need to do to fix that is to make it install hashkell rather then trying to update the links for an existing one, but i know nothing about hacking the config for that tool
[21:12] <inkjetunito> does 12.4 have gtk3?
[21:12] <sirriffsalot> inkjetunito, yes
[21:12] <chu> inkjetunito: Yep
[21:12] <inkjetunito> thanks
[21:13] <acicula> hekate: you just mount your home, during installation you can set that in the disk partition section
[21:13] <hekate> acicula: I think I'm just going to install haskell-platform from the normal repos when I get on 12.04 :)
[21:13] <acicula> hekate: might be easier
[21:13] <Ben64> hekate: you know in gparted how it has a column for "mount point"? make sure that says /home, and then when you install 12.04, reselect that partition and set it as /home from the installer
[21:14] <acicula> hekate: you can just do a release upgrade to go from 10.04 to 12.04 though
[21:14] <acicula> no need to reinstall then
[21:14] <hekate> I don't trust teh release upgrade though acicula, I'm afraid it'll be messy :/
[21:14] <george___> Hello! Could you please help me fix my wireless? I have no wireless connection since I've removed DKMS!
[21:14] <hekate> Ben64: so does my new /home partition have to be left-most in the partition table?
[21:14] <acicula> fair enough, doing a clean install will be faster anyway
[21:14] <genoskill> how can i make acpid start before x server?
[21:15] <Ben64> hekate: can be anywhere
[21:15] <acicula> hekate: it does not matter where you put partitions, (for the pedantic, not really anyway)
[21:15] <Ben64> /home could even be on a different hard drive if you were so inclined
[21:15] <hekate> Is there a guide in the Ubuntu wiki or somewhere by chance, I've been searching but with no luck, despite this seeming like something many people would be trying to do..
[21:16] <hekate> thanks for all the help btw acicula, Ben64 and all
[21:16] <Ben64> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[21:16] <wolfmitchell> hekate: Just add "mount (device name) /home" to somewhere that is run at boot (init scripts?) to mount it to /home
[21:17] <heer> /list
[21:17] <heer> I cannot get into undernet
[21:18] <three18ti> how do I change my desktop background from the CLI?  I found this: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/3-lines-script-to-automatically-change.html page but the gconftool command does not return any output.
[21:18] <george___> Please help!
[21:20] <wargtn> buenas gente , tengo un error al compilar saben a que se deba "falta un separador. "
[21:20] <three18ti> georege___, put DKMS back.  Am I over simplifying the issue?  It's like if you go to the doctor and tell the doctor, "Boy it really hurts when I punch myself in the face"...  sometimes (most often) the obvious answer is the correct one.
[21:21] <ubuntu_guru> ola
[21:21] <three18ti> wargtn, I'm not sure if it's an actual rule, but you will get better help in English.  google translate has muddled your question, but can you please post the full error message?
[21:21] <ubuntu_guru> can anyone tell me when Gimp 2.8 will be in repositories?
[21:22] <wylde_> !es | wargtn
[21:22] <wargtn> ok let me see what that means "falta un separador."
[21:22] <EDawg878_> missing a separator
[21:22] <wargtn> jajajaj
[21:22] <wargtn> xD
[21:22] <three18ti> ubuntu_guru, you can add the gimp ppa and install it from repos that way
[21:23] <ubuntu_guru> o never mind i have answer
[21:23] <EDawg878_> what are you compiling?
[21:23] <three18ti> ubuntu_guru http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/gimp-28-stable-finally-available-for.html
[21:23] <ubuntu_guru> ty three18ti
[21:23] <three18ti> ubuntu_guru, you're welcome :)
[21:23] <wargtn> im compiling the driver for my webcam make -f Makefile-syntekdriver
[21:24] <wargtn> and i got that error message missing a separator
[21:25] <Socracheese> I can't get multiple monitors to work until I enable xinerama, then i can't use xrandr
[21:25] <three18ti> that sounds like a developer error.  "missing separator" is makes generic "wtf?" error message and indicates a syntax error.  Where did you get the source?
[21:26] <wargtn> the source is the only from syntek
[21:26] <EDawg878_> look at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/help-with-make-error-missing-seperator-73295/
[21:26] <three18ti> Socracheese, I have the same problem with nvidia.  I finally resorted to running in "failsafe" mode.  Please let me know if you have any luck getting your multiple monitors to work.,
[21:26] <ezbbunk> hi
[21:27] <killown> what did happen with chromium? its outdated by now
[21:27] <killown> google chrome latest version is on 19
[21:27] <ezbbunk> is it possible that there are two different clipboards?
[21:27] <ezbbunk> one for mouse selection and one for Ctrl-C?
[21:27] <EDawg878_> yea i think so
[21:27] <ezbbunk> how do I
[21:27] <ezbbunk> disable that
[21:28] <wargtn> thanks a lot , letme try doing that
[21:29] <EDawg878_> There are acutally 3 clipboards

[21:29] <george___> I can't activate broadcom sta driver! Please help me enable my wireless connection. Here's /var/lock/jockey.log: http://pastebin.com/9xxEbQsx
[21:32] <linuxshine> can anyone offer a solution to clear history in software center I been trying to do this all day....
[21:35] <Shiver> I'm having a problem that I'm hoping someone can help with. After suspending and resuming on my laptop, the laptop can no longer connect to any wireless networks. It continually prompts for a new password even though it is the right password (as it just worked before the suspend).
[21:35] <moduspwnins> Shiver: did you upgrade from a previous release, or are you on a fresh install?  Are you on Precise?
[21:36] <Shiver> I'm currently on 11.10. Did a clean install a few months ago. The problem has been happening since the install but I don't use it all that often.
[21:36] <Shiver> Decided to try to get it fixed.
[21:36] <Shiver> If I fully reboot the laptop, it works fine
[21:36] <Shiver> ...until I suspend again
[21:37] <Shiver> I'm fairly new to Linux so I'm not even sure how to troubleshoot the problem.
[21:37] <moduspwnins> Shiver: I had that problem after I upgraded to 12.04 from previous release.  It went away after a fresh install.  (Not that I am offering this as a valid solution)
[21:37] <three18ti> george___, still the same advice, undo what you did to break it in the first place (You removed DKMS^^)
[21:39] <Shiver> What should be my first course of action in solving the problem? I've read a lot of threads of similar issues but none of them have helped.
[21:39] <george___> three18ti: I can't. I want to activate broadcom sta. Oh, and forget what I've said: dkms IS installed!
[21:39] <moduspwnins> I never "solved" the problem the right way, so I might not be much help  :(
[21:40] <moduspwnins> Shiver: is your wireless driver Broadcom?
[21:40] <Shiver> I'm using a Realtek card, so I would assume the driver is the same.
[21:40] <Moschito> ciao
[21:41] <three18ti> george___, so what did you do that broke the driver?  you might have better luck with the broadcom mailing list<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:41] <moduspwnins> okay.  one thing that worked for me temporarily was to disable the proprietary driver, then re-enable it.  That would get mine to work until the next suspend.
[21:41] <upgrayeddd> Hi, this is hekate from before with questions about partitioning a new /home. I just set to shrink my old / to 200gb from 500. My /home that I'll be moving was 130gb according to du -sh test I ran before partitioning. What I'm wondering is the rest of / besides /home realistically gonna fit in 70gb? Or did I just screw myself?
[21:41] <Shiver> How would I go about doing that?
[21:42] <three18ti> george___, did you attempt to install from source or from repos?  According to the README, Ubuntu includes precompile packages, http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt
[21:42] <upgrayeddd> I'll expand the rest of the / to 200gb after I move the ~130gb /home to its own ~300gb partition of course
[21:42] <three18ti> *precompiled
[21:42] <bluelf> hey all image for my webcam is upside down is there an easy fix for this problem ?
[21:42] <fr3da> quit
[21:42] <moduspwnins> upgrayeddd: my / is a mere 25GB.  I don't see any problem with a small /
[21:42] <george___> three18ti: The thing is the driver is blacklisted, and O
[21:42] <george___> and I want to undo that
[21:42] <Shiver> How would I disable and re-enable the wireless drive?
[21:43] <upgrayeddd> moduspwnins: sounds good, I also didn't expect it to be that large but wanted to be safe :D. I guess the one way I can test is after I move /home to its own partition, it should be roughly the same ~130gb, right?
[21:43] <Shiver> driver*
[21:43] <three18ti> george___ just comment out the line where it is blacklisted with a `#`
[21:43] <upgrayeddd> I'll run the du -sh test on it after I'm all done to make sure I've kept data integrity
[21:43] <george___> three18ti: what broke the drive was sudo apt-get install --reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source
[21:44] <moduspwnins> upgrayeddd: i'm not sure I follow.  are you concerned about moving the data, or was your concern whether the system would fit into 70GB on /?
[21:44] <moduspwnins> my comment was based just on space concerns
[21:44] <moduspwnins> my / is 25GB and is only 25% used
[21:44] <moduspwnins> with lots of extra packages installed
[21:45] <Shiver> moduspwnins: What are the commands to disable and re-enable the wireless driver?
[21:45] <upgrayeddd> moduspwnins: I think you answered the question well, I was just wondering typically how much space the / system uses
[21:45] <upgrayeddd> this talk of data integrity reminds me of something I've been wondering about, my laptop often cracks open in my backpack as I'm moving throughout the day. I'd imagine this is not a good thing at all for my hard drive, would you all recommend anything to prevent this?
[21:46] <upgrayeddd> cracks open and the system wakes up from suspension state I mean
[21:46] <moduspwnins> shiver: i didn't do it via command, i did it via the restricted driver applet
[21:46] <three18ti> george___ is that driver even supported on the 3.X kernel?
[21:46] <Core23> After upgrading to 12.04 (Kubuntu 64 bit) I can no longer log in
[21:47] <wylde_> upgrayeddd: other than securing it shut somehow, turning it off would be the alernative I imagine.
[21:47] <Guest70371> I currently have a nightly/unstable look-up for some software that I would prefer the stable version of, how can I change that? Is it in my sources.info?
[21:47] <Core23> I just get a blue screen and a mouse cursor after entering username and password
[21:48] <wylde_> upgrayeddd: could find yourself some sort of velcro strap to fasten it shut if you don't want to turn it off.
[21:48] <SwashBuckla> GRUB2 question: I have set the TIMEOUT=0 and the DEFAULT=0 (Windows). Can I still boot Ubuntu? I have just tried holding Shift all through the boot process, and a change DOES occur: I get the message "GRUB loading...". However, this disappears after 5 or so seconds and continues with it's configured boot process (i.e. it does not show the GRUB menu)
[21:48] <george___> three18ti: I believe so. If not, I just want to reenable the other drive. Can you help me?
[21:52] <upgrayeddd> Following along with this guide Ben64 linked before: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[21:53] <Rasmus> Hi ! Does anyone know how to change display driver in ubuntu 10.04 ?
[21:53] <upgrayeddd> I notice we never actually do a mv /old/home to the the /new/ partition ... is there something I'm not understanding, or is the /home really moved to the /new partition there?
[21:53] <three18ti> george___, reason I ask is th README only specifies 2.6.X ("the hybrid binary is agnostic to the specific versions (2.6.X) and distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu, SuSE, etc)." ) I honestly do not know if is compatible with the 3.X kernel, which is why I asked how you installed it. again, you might get better results on the broadcom mailing list about their drivers ("Support questions for the latest version of these drivers may be directed to linux-wlan-cli
[21:53] <three18ti> ent-support-list@broadcom.com.");  what was the other driver ?
[21:53] <three18ti> Rasmus, does this help: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17495/how-to-add-proprietary-drivers-to-ubuntu-10.04/
[21:53] <upgrayeddd> Is the sudo cp /old/etc/fstab /old/etc/fstab_backup command the one that actually moves everything?

[22:00] <chu> Xnc: Please don't.
[22:00] <three18ti> george___, well, you have two options, you can continue to idle on IRC on the off chance that someone will come on and know exactly how to fix your problem without you providing any information (IOW, a mind reader), or you can contact the experts on the product you are having an issue with and reach a resolution in a much more timely manner.

[22:03] <NV1D1A> i need to know how disable the nouveau driver. thanks
[22:04] <Ansikt> Is there any way to undo ndiswrapper -m?  I installed a "invalid" driver, and bound it to my network card with -m.  Then I uninstalled that driver and reinstalled  a newer version.  Ndiswrapper says that the driver is installed, but does not see the device.  I suspect it is because the old driver is already bound to it, but I am unsure.
[22:04] <Ansikt> Any suggestions?
[22:04] <three18ti> nv1d1a, add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf ?
[22:04] <angs> sorry for pasting the text here. I did not understand what I suppose to do
[22:04] <Core23> any advice?  no errors, no lockup, just doesn't progress into KDE
[22:04] <angs> what I need to add "/etc/apt/sources.list" ?
[22:05] <p1ppppp> guys, i did an "apt-get purge libboost" and unintentionally ruined my system.  Unitys gone, no panel, nothing, please help.

[22:10] <JanvierCF> I am trying to install ubuntu on a packard bell netbook off a USB stick. The stick works just fine on my desktop, but when I try to boot my netbook with it plugged it it doesn't boot at all. It won't let me go into the BIOS or boot menu either as long as its plugged in. Any ideas what the reason could be?
[22:10] <p1ppppp> as i no longer have a desktop
[22:10] <wylde_> p1ppppp: ctrl+alt+f1 login and 'sudo service lightdm stop'
[22:10] <fff> hey guys im having trouble installing gerix on ubuntu 12.04.  Could anyone help?
[22:11] <p1ppppp> wylde: Thank you so much
[22:11] <JanvierCF> I also checked if my netbook is compatible to boot off usb, and it is
[22:11] <wylde_> p1ppppp: then try to 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop'  maybe include the --reinstall flag if the first command complains.

[22:18] <JanvierCF> Please guys, could someone help me out? I've tried everything in the faq and scoured the technical answers, but I haven't found a solution :(
[22:19] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: If the USB boots on one machine and not the other I would guess that the issue is with the machine, not the stick. I don't have the notebook in question so it's hard for me to debug.
[22:20] <Socracheese> I'm editing xorg.conf manually to rotate a screen on ubuntu 12.04, if I do option "Rotate" "CW" or "ccw" it works but not "UD" for upside-down, anyone know why?
[22:20] <Ca11um> I'm considering using a Ubuntu dedi instead of Windows....
[22:21] <Ca11um> I have one concern;
[22:21] <Ca11um> (This will be hosting game servers, web services, some other game-server-related software such as TeamSpeak)
[22:21] <Ca11um> Is there a 'services' system?
[22:21] <Ca11um> I take it there is
[22:21] <angs> I get "configure: error: Package requirements (gconf-2.0 >= 2.14.0) were not met:" I tried apt-get install gconf and gconf-dev but it did not help. can anyone suggest me what package do I need to install?
[22:21] <Ca11um> So I can run console stuff in the background
[22:21] <Ca11um> I've used screens before, but that was ****
[22:21] <BlueEagle> fff: I think what wylde_ is trying to communicate is that since Gerix is not an official Ubuntu package it is not supported in the official ubuntu support channel. Being that it is software primarily used for breaking encryption I am not inclined to help anywhere.
[22:22] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: thanks for the reply. I figured the same, but I tried everything from wiping the hard drive to changing all the boot settings, I haven't a clue what the issue is. I've already installed other OS off a stick with no problems. What could I do to find out?
[22:22] <BlueEagle> !enter | Ca11um
[22:22] <bwayne_work> hi.  i'm using both the MinBufWinExplorer and the NERDtree plugin.  When I open a new file via NERDTree in a vertically split window, the new window is very narrow, as narrow as the NERDTree window.  my .vimrc --> http://pastebin.com/wHLZqSUk screenshot --> http://i.imgur.com/ZuAtZ.png  (sorry for xpost from #vim. no help there)
[22:22] <Curt`> Hello. I am duel booting windows 7 and ubuntu 12.04 and have a third partition that is going to be used for my documents (ntfs). I wanted my home Music etc. folders to be symbolic links to the third partition, however afaik the partition is not mounted on startup, breaking the symbolic links until it is mounted. is there a way to auto-mount it on startup?
[22:22] <angs> I get "E: Unable to locate package gconf-dev" for "apt-get install gconf-dev"
[22:23] <bwayne_work> Curt`: add the windows partition to /etc/fstab.
[22:23] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Well if you're not able to describe in more detail exactly what happens when you try to install Ubuntu we will be hard pressed to help.
[22:23] <bwayne_work> Curt`, something like /dev/sda1 ntfs /mnt/windows
[22:24] <bwayne_work> Curt`, but look at the previous stuff in /etc/fstab.  It's fairly straightforward.
[22:24] <trism> angs: libgconf2-dev, very useful is: apt-cache search -n gconf dev; (substituting gconf for whatever lib you are looking for)
[22:24] <bwayne_work> !fstab
[22:24] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Yes, there are services, but you would in all likelyhood want to use screens especially for server consoles.
[22:24] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Sorry, wrong nick. That one was for Ca11um.
[22:25] <dangbarry> hey! i came across something in a make file that i hadn't seen before; $@ is this the name: and $< is this what preceeds the name ?
[22:25] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: I insert the stick, then turn on my computer. It simply gets stuck in the booting screen. It doesn't respond to me pressing f2 or f8 except is does display that setup is loading
[22:25] <angs> thank you trism
[22:25] <Core23> !guidelines core23
[22:26] <Curt`> bwayne_work, thank you ill check it out.
[22:26] <Core23> !guidelines >>> core23
[22:26] <bwayne_work> Curt`, you're very welcome.
[22:26] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: The issue may be that your BIOS is jumbling the partition identifiers so it boots as one device and then suddenly it is not that device any longer.
[22:26] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Try setting the USB stick as the first boot device so you don't use the boot menu. If that doesn't work set it to the last boot device and use the boot menu to select booting from that stick.

[22:28] <Core23> Can anybody help me with my issue: No longer able to use KDE after upgrade to 12.04, everything appears to be working fine but nothing happens after login
[22:28] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: USB was set as first, I now made it last but the boot selection menu just doesn't load again :/
[22:29] <oxseyn> Anyone have a good link to information on how the /etc/network/interfaces.template file is used?
[22:29] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Well if it does get to setup loading then it is doing _something_. Not sure how to make the USB boot sequence more verbose, sorry.
[22:30] <BlueEagle> oxseyn: The interfaces.template is a template for /etc/network/interfaces. Please type in a console: man interfaces
[22:30] <BlueEagle> oxseyn: That will give you the manual page for /etc/network/interfaces.
[22:31] <angs> configure: error: Package requirements (gmodule-2.0 >= 2.14            gthread-2.0 >= 2.14            libxml-2.0 >= 2.6.22            libgtop-2.0 >= 2.14            glibmm-2.4 >= 2.14) were not met. Is there any library for them to install?
[22:31] <Core23> Alternativley, anybody have any idea how to connect to a wireless with iwconfig, so i can at least download an install image at better than 801.11g speeds?
[22:31] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: no problem, thanks for your time. Do you think it could be possible to boot it off an external usb cd-drive?
[22:32] <Gyges> Core23, does it need wpa
[22:32] <Gyges> ?
[22:32] <BlueEagle> angs: if they are not in the repos you'd have to compile them from source as well. However if they are not backward compatible you may break something else when trying.
[22:32] <Core23> wpa2 yes
[22:32] <dirtynickels> hello all
[22:32] <Gyges> do you have the command wpa_supplicant available?
[22:32] <Core23> yes
[22:33] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: Yes, I do. Then again I thing it should be possible to boot it off the USB-stick. Are you using some UEFI BIOS or some such?
[22:33] <trism> angs: libglib2.0-dev for a couple of those, the rest you should be able to find yourself
[22:33] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: InsydeH20 v0.3103
[22:33] <Gyges> wpa_passphrase "essid" "passphrase" >> /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
[22:33] <angs> thank you. can you hint how to search?
[22:34] <trism> angs: apt-cache search -n name dev; replace name with say, libxml, gtop, etc
[22:34] <BlueEagle> JanvierCF: I must admit that I do not know what that is. However if it is some UEFI security-bs then I'm not sure how to work around it.
[22:34] <angs> thank you trism
[22:34] <solid91> hi everibody, when i use "./configure" i think something goes wrong...i have an error i think: "checking for Qt library version >=4.2... no; Qt 4.2 or greater is required....what is that?!?!
[22:34] <sleepie^eyes> how do i configure ubuntu such that internet ports are denied by default unless specified explicity as allowed?
[22:35] <BlueEagle> solid91: You appear to be missing QT4 development packages.
[22:35] <BlueEagle> ufw is the default firewall manager. I prefer shorewall myself.
[22:35] <sleepie^eyes> Why shorewall? I've heard that mentioned before
[22:36] <sleepie^eyes> Anyway to do this without learning how to configure iptables would be appreciated
[22:36] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: Because I configure my firewall using a text-based interface and I have found Shorewall to be the most usable when it comes to flexibility and learning curve. Mind you thoug; configure it when you've got physical access to the computer. You will most likely lock yourself out of a ssh-session by mistake if you try. :)
[22:37] <dirtynickels> I can't get my system to detect my usb hdd
[22:38] <Gyges> dirtynickels, search for errors in /var/log/syslog
[22:38] <sleepie^eyes> I'd be happy if I could just be sure I'm the only one using ssh on this network... that's good advice, I'm probably headed in that direction, for now I'd like some basic port blocking
[22:38] <Core23> Gyges: permission denied with sudo?
[22:38] <Gyges> yes
[22:38] <dirtynickels> okay I check there
[22:38] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: Are you setting up a single box or will you be routing for other computers as well (windows equivalent of internet connection sharing)?
[22:38] <Gyges> sudo -c ' '
[22:38] <adamk> dirtynickels: Does 'lsusb' list the hard drive?
[22:38] <pacci> !list
[22:39] <Gyges> wrong
[22:39] <Relondo> So I left Ubuntu installing on my laptop, walked away for about two hours, and when I came back, the screen was dark. Nothing appeared, so I held down the power button to turn it off. Afterwards, my computer did not appear to boot-nothing appeared when the power button was pressed, though indicator lights came on. Then, I took out the battery and left it alone for five minutes. It booted, and proceeded to check the windows system files
[22:39] <Gyges> su -c
[22:39] <Core23> oh
[22:39] <dirtynickels> I tried lsudb
[22:39] <sleepie^eyes> BlueEagle, That depends on which "road" I take, if I learn iptables I will configure it in the dd-wrt router to benefit the network as a whole, otherwise just one linux box
[22:39] <Gyges> su -c ' '
[22:39] <dirtynickels> nothing showed up
[22:39] <Gyges> will do the job
[22:40] <JanvierCF> BlueEagle: Hmm it might well be that uefi is the problem. I guess I'll try cd tomorrow. Anyway, thanks a lot for your advice, I greatly appreciate it! Gnight
[22:40] <Core23> hmm
[22:40] <Johna> I am having trouble installilng Gerix on Ubuntu 12.04, here is a link to the question.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034595/
[22:40] <Core23> I have no idea what my superuser password is
[22:40] <Core23> I didn't even know I had one in ubuntu
[22:40] <Gyges> sudo '' ?
[22:40] <Relondo> Ok, so windows finished checking the system files. I have no second partition for Ubuntu, and everything appears to be normal. I have no clue what happened.
[22:41] <sleepie^eyes> sudont should be a command for password protecting blocking of sudo managed commands
[22:41] <Core23> ok
[22:41] <Core23> its in
[22:41] <Core23> now what?
[22:41] <solid91> how can i get the Qt4 development package?
[22:41] <Gyges> wpa_supplicant -i wlan0
[22:41] <adamk_> dirtynickels: That suggests a hardware issue.
[22:41] <Gyges> and then in another shell : dhcpcd wlan0
[22:42] <sleepie^eyes> BlueEagle, one linux box. What do you suggest?
[22:42] <Core23> wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 givels me the help message
[22:42] <sleepie^eyes> I have to do the box itself anyway since it's mobile
[22:42] <Gyges> it's like the example of the help
[22:43] <Gyges> wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
[22:43] <angs> who updates the programs in ubuntu software center?
[22:44] <Gyges> i forgot to put -c
[22:44] <angs> how can I request a newer version of a program?
[22:44] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: I recommend installing shorewall and then reading the documentation. There is a complete setup in /usr/share/doc/shorewall/examples/one-interface/ after installing.
[22:44] <xangua> !latest | angs
[22:44] <Johna> Could someone please help me install Gerix.  Here is a link to my process http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034595/
[22:44] <Core23> aaand dhcpcd tells me I can use apt-get to install it
[22:45] <sleepie^eyes> BlueEagle, I just started, thanks, I forgot about shorewall
[22:45] <Gyges> angs, i don't know but i would check in precise to see if the program is already there
[22:45] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: The thing I like most about Shorewall is that you can add interfaces and zones, even network cards after the wall is set up and just add the policies and rules for the new zones and leaving the old ones intact.
[22:45] <Gyges> Core23, type dhc<tab><tab> to see which client is installed (probably dhclient :)
[22:45] <Core23> dhclient yeah
[22:46] <jemark> !gentoo
[22:46] <Gyges> you can use this
[22:46] <solid91> @BlueEagle can you tell me how to install the Qt4 development packages please?
[22:46] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1354438 may also help you along. Even if it is for 08.10 the Shorewall configuration is robust.
[22:46] <sleepie^eyes> BlueEagle, that's a bit advanced for me, I understand the concept mostly
[22:46] <Gyges> angs, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[22:47] <BlueEagle> sleepie^eyes: It would be a great learning opportunity. :)
[22:47] <sleepie^eyes> Like, editing a sample config file or making a simple one was what I had in mind but shorewall hard code me into limitation later so I'll start that, thanks again
[22:48] <sleepie^eyes> shorewall ^won't
[22:48] <sleepie^eyes> kinda essential
[22:48] <sleepie^eyes> laters :)
[22:48] <Gyges> bye
[22:49] <Core23> aaaand nothing, the dhclient shell has yet to respond
[22:50] <Gyges> wpa_supplicant have not connected for some reason
[22:50] <danklasson> join #python
[22:50] <Gyges> Core23, do 'service network-manager stop'
[22:51] <Gyges> i don't know how to connect using network-manager
[22:52] <Johna> Gyges what ver. of Ubuntu are you running?
[22:52] <eok> i just made a thread on ubuntu forums, does it need to be moderated before it shows up?
[22:52] <Gyges> im in debian
[22:52] <Core23> well, I at least got it admiting that the network exists, farther than I ever got before textwise
[22:52] <Gyges> no, i was answering to Core23
[22:52] <ikonia> Gyges: the guys in #debian maybe a better place to ask for help then
[22:53] <Gyges> thnx
[22:53] <Gyges> :D:D
[22:53] <ikonia> Gyges: ooh, my apologies, I thought you where saying you where struggling to use it
[22:53] <Gyges> i meant from the command line
[22:54] <Core23> I will go back to #debian just as soon as its possible to install debian off of wireless
[22:54] <Gyges> Core23, 'iwlist wlan0 scan' shows the networks
[22:54] <Gyges> i'm not moving from debian either
[22:55] <Gyges> :)
[22:55] <tracingPerson> anyone know what file has the implementation for XSetWMName(...) method in X11?  Or anyone know a good way to find out, or an easy place to get the source for X11?
[22:56] <ikonia> tracingPerson: x.org contains the source code for xorg
[22:56] <kuwrefem1> Gyges:  i don't think the CLI for network manager is as complete as the GUI
[22:57] <ikonia> tracingPerson: it also has very solid documentation
[22:57] <tracingPerson> ikonia: have you successfully unarchived it?  I attempted to grab it from ftp but then when i tried to recursively unarchive i got a "Too many simlinks" message from gunzip or whatever
[22:58] <ikonia> tracingPerson: unarchived it many times
[22:58] <solid91> Hi everibody, i have this message using "./configure": checking for Qt library version >= 4.2 ... no; Qt 4.2 or greater is required...which packages i should install?
[22:58] <ikonia> solid91: what are you trying to build /
[22:58] <solid91> @ikonia qjackctl
[22:58] <ikonia> !find qjackctl
[22:58] <Gyges> hehehe
[22:58] <ikonia> !info qjackctl
[22:59] <ikonia> solid91: it's in the repos, you don't need to compile it
[22:59] <tracingPerson> ikonia: i probably just suck at it, do you know the easiest way to pull all the source initially, i did wget -r ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/xorg/X11R7.7/
[22:59] <ikonia> solid91: just open the package manager, and install it
[22:59] <solid91> @ikonia yeah but is the older version... the 0.3.8...i have the 0.3.9
[22:59] <ikonia> solid91: why do you want 0.3.9
[23:00] <ikonia> tracingPerson: go a few directories deeper
[23:00] <solid91> @ikonia because i have problems with it...
[23:00] <Core23> ok, just going to wait for the install image off the slow comp
[23:00] <ikonia> solid91: are they logged as bugs ?
[23:00] <ikonia> solid91: are they confirmed fixed in 0.3.9 ?
[23:00] <Gyges> ok
[23:00] <solid91> @ikonia i don't know man...im just tryng
[23:00] <Core23> quick question I will be able to use 6 gigs RAM on 32 bit ubuntu without compiling my own kernel right?
[23:01] <ikonia> solid91: ok, it's worth checking before randomly trying to build something tha tyou're not comfortable with
[23:01] <ikonia> Core23: the PAE kernel will allow it
[23:01] <solid91> @ikonia ok...but i have another program what i cant build and it isn't in the repository
[23:01] <bluej774> Anyone else having a problem on 12.04 where a window's status bar at the bottom doesn't show and you can see the window behind it?
[23:02] <ikonia> solid91: which one ?
[23:02] <solid91> @ikonia linux multimedia studio
[23:02] <Gyges> !find lmms
[23:02] <ikonia> solid91: lmms /
[23:02] <ikonia> ?
[23:02] <bluej774> It happens when a program opens maximized.  If you unmaximize and remaximize it's normal again.
[23:02] <tracingPerson> ikonia: if I malloc a window title, pass the (char *) to methods in X11 to set strings like the title bar string etc, I can be fairly certain that they aren't going to keep a reference to my pointer so its fine to free it after calling into X11 right?
[23:03] <ikonia> tracingPerson: no idea without looking/checking myself
[23:03] <ikonia> solid91: are you talking about lmms ?
[23:03] <solid91> @ikonia yes
[23:04] <ikonia> https://launchpad.net/~dns/+archive/sound
[23:04] <ikonia> solid91: that ppa contains the packages
[23:04] <ikonia> solid91: again you shouldn't need to compile it
[23:04] <tracingPerson> ikonia: k, just making sure I wasn't missing some basic concept or whatever, so I was trying to grab the source to find out... if i just grab the archive from ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/xorg/X11R7.7/src/xserver/ is that too deep?
[23:04] <solid91> @ikonia sorry man didn't seen...thank you
[23:04] <dirtynickels> usually when I attach my usb hdd it automounts to /media I grep usb  /var/log/syslog don't really understand all the output but there are errors
[23:04] <ikonia> solid91: not a problem, be aware of the risks of using a PPA
[23:04] <ikonia> solid91: however they are no more/less then building your own if you don't really know what you are doing
[23:05] <droope> Hi! I have accidentally changed my language to chinese, now everything is in chinese and I can't change it back u.u
[23:05] <droope> help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

[23:06] <dirtynickels> lol droope wish I could help
[23:06] <droope> ikonia: sir yes sir
[23:06] <droope> dirtynickels: hhhahahaha :( so dumb
[23:06] <tracingPerson> ikonia: only reason I ask if its too deep, because I grab the archive in that directory, and then unarchive, and grep for xsetwmname and don't find any matches
[23:06] <belbel> hello,i need help with finding a broadcom bcm4312 driver on ubuntu
[23:07] <belbel> any ideas??

[23:07] <ikonia> tracingPerson: xorg is modular, make sure you unarchive all the packages
[23:07] <wylde_> !broadcom | belbel
[23:07] <ikonia> tracingPerson: without looking myself, I don't know enough to advise you where/what to look for
[23:07] <belbel> yes b43

[23:09] <mitsuhiko> hey
[23:09] <mitsuhiko> does anyone know if ubuntu has a hook to force overwrite the PS1 of all users on the system?
[23:10] <Gyges> mitsuhiko, does /etc/bash/bashrc control PS1? it may
[23:10] <ikonia> mitsuhiko: you can put it in every uses bash enviornment
[23:10] <w30> droope, you'll have to borrow a Linux laptop with the same distro and then monkey see monkey do, ha
[23:10] <ikonia> mitsuhiko: it's not a "global" parameter, but one for each user
[23:10] <Gyges> not suere
[23:10] <LittleBallOfHate> mitsuhiko: there are global shell config files in /etc but people will always be able to overwrite them unless you put one in each homedir and chattr +i it.
[23:10] <mitsuhiko> LittleBallOfHate: i understand that
[23:10] <Gyges> LittleBallOfHate, is right
[23:10] <mitsuhiko> LittleBallOfHate: i am all the users however, so that is not much of a concern for me
[23:11] <Gyges> muahahahaha
[23:11] <mitsuhiko> i just basically want to make sure that each prompt on all the servers clearly indicates in all situations that this is a server
[23:11] <LittleBallOfHate> mitsuhiko: then either set it in the global configs or drop your config in each homedir
[23:11] <Gyges> try /etc/bash/bashrc
[23:11] <mitsuhiko> Gyges: unfortunately the default ~/.bashrc overrides that prompt
[23:11] <Gyges> thnx
[23:11] <mitsuhiko> i was hoping ubuntu would execute something after it sources ~/.bashrc
[23:11] <LittleBallOfHate> mitsuhiko: nope that's not how shells work
[23:11] <Gyges> .bashprofile?
[23:12] <Gyges> i'm a mesh
[23:12] <Gyges> mess
[23:12] <belbel> hello,i tried what the page said,but error!!!!
[23:13] <belbel> when i do sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl
[23:13] <belbel> i get error!!!!
[23:13] <mitsuhiko> LittleBallOfHate: i understand that,
[23:13] <LittleBallOfHate> belbel: what is the error
[23:13] <Feo-> where you from???
[23:13] <mitsuhiko> however last time i was checking there was so much magic in debian already for rc management, i would not be surprised if someone added hooks somewhere

[23:21] <sleepie^eyes> wylde, Thanks! Love the script
[23:21] <belbel> i didnt coz a already have what mentioned in step1 and 2
[23:22] <LittleBallOfHate> belbel: the doc says to install the package then activate the driver and either reboot or do that line that gives you an error. so either reboot and see if it works or "modprobe wl" now.
[23:23] <sleepie^eyes> wylde, indeed it was, thanks again.
[23:23] <belbel> ok,i will
[23:23] <LittleBallOfHate> belbel: easiest is modprobe wl
[23:24] <samba_> how to change the timestamp in rsyslog configuration ?
[23:24] <bryce> hi, i am trying to copy my linux exactly as is to a solid state that already has windows 7 on it. when i tried to do it with gparted and then went into windows to use easybcd it wouldn't boot into linux, what am i missing?
[23:24] <LittleBallOfHate> samba_: man syslog.conf?
[23:25] <samba_> LinuxMonkey, yes but there is no info about which is the variable
[23:25] <samba_> to edit
[23:25] <LittleBallOfHate> bryce: have you reinstalled grub on the ssd?
[23:25] <bryce> im sure its because i have to reinstall the boot loader but i don't know how.
[23:26] <LittleBallOfHate> samba_: no idea man.
[23:26] <xubuntu5> grub or grub2?
[23:26] <bryce> probably grub 2 that's what i was using before im sure.
[23:27] <bryce> how do i do that? from a live version of parted magic?
[23:28] <LittleBallOfHate> bryce: think you need an ubuntu disk
[23:28] <LittleBallOfHate> bryce: or put the old disk back in with the sdd, boot old disk, fix from there, take machine down remove old disk
[23:29] <wilee-nilee> !bootinfo | bryce This script will tell us more of what is going on.
[23:30] <Oer> samba_,  maybe this page is any help with rsyslog conf >> http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/rsyslog_conf_templates.html
[23:30] <MystKid> heya guys i am using fdisk to repartition my /home partition... running  fdisk /dev/sda I get a message saying  Partition 3 does not start on physical sector boundary.
[23:30] <bryce> is there a way to reinstall and easily pull all my settings, apps and documents onto the new installation?
[23:30] <samba_> Oer, tnx man
[23:31] <LittleBallOfHate> bryce: boot off an ubuntu disk, tell it to boot a hard disk, pick the ssd, once in, fix grub
[23:31] <Jester86_Mobile> hey.. what is the status on playing blu-ray in linux?
[23:31] <shaneo> hey guys how can i change to apache2 port from 80 to something else
[23:31] <Oer> bryce, clone your package list, and backup your /home/ ?
[23:31] <shaneo> *the
[23:31] <Oer> !clone
[23:31] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: apache2.conf
[23:32] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, is it located in /etc/apache2?
[23:32] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: yup.
[23:32] <MystKid> i jsut used fdisk to create a new partition and its saying /dev/sda3             919G   14G  860G   2% /home
[23:32] <MystKid> hows that possible
[23:32] <MystKid> i jsut deleted it...
[23:33] <bryce> Thank you all. i'm going to go try aand make this work.
[23:33] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, ok also do i need to change it in /etc/apache2/sites-avaiable/default?
[23:33] <Oer> MystKid, you need to unmount te disk before editting
[23:33] <MystKid> it is unmonuted
[23:33] <MystKid> Oer: and it says 14GB are used
[23:33] <MystKid> when nothing is in there
[23:33] <mjabm> I have multiple monitors. How do I stop my mouse from stopping when it moves between them?
[23:34] <echo083> hello when i try to rename a file from lowercase to uppercase (or the contrary) it fails with error "file already exists ..." is there something to fix that ?
[23:34] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, n/m i got it need to edit ports.conf and default
[23:35] <echo083> it happens in nautilus
[23:35] <Oer> MystKid, ctrl + H hidden, is there a Lost & found section?
[23:35] <MystKid> no Oer
[23:35] <MystKid> i sjut dd'ed it to zero
[23:35] <MystKid> its seems its used for super user
[23:35] <wylde_> mjabm: I'm not on unity atm, but in display settings there's an option for "sticky" something or other. Turn that off.
[23:36] <wylde_> MystKid: usually 5% is set aside for root, although that can be changed.
[23:36] <MystKid> wylde_: how can that be set?
[23:36] <dirtynickels> usually when I attach my usb hdd it automounts to /media I have two connected how do I mount 'em ?  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1034676/
[23:36] <Oer> that would be no 14 gb
[23:36] <mjabm> thanks wylde
[23:37] <wylde_> MystKid: I'm currently already scrathing my head trying to remember >.<
[23:37] <xubuntu5> dirtynickels check out /etc/fstab for mounting drives
[23:37] <adamk> dirtynickels: As you can see from all those errors, bad things are happening between your USB Hub and the hard drive.
[23:37] <mjabm> How do I disable subpixel antialiasing on one of my monitors?
[23:37] <Ben64> wylde, MystKid: tune2fs
[23:37] <xubuntu5> run the command df -h or sudo fdisk -l and find out what your drives are it will b something like /dev/dc1
[23:38] <dirtynickels> I don't know what all those errors mean
[23:38] <xubuntu5> from there you can look at fstab documentation on mounting them
[23:38] <adamk> xubuntu5: Did you even look at what he pasted?
[23:38] <dirtynickels> I tried df -h and fdisk -l
[23:38] <xubuntu5> yes
[23:38] <dirtynickels> and nothing showed up about my hdds
[23:39] <dirtynickels> * usb hdds i mean
[23:39] <xubuntu5> are you using a hub?
[23:39] <wylde_> Ben64:  yep, that's where I saw it.
[23:39] <dirtynickels> no
[23:40] <Relondo> When I go to install Ubuntu, it says I have multiple OSes installed, though I only have Win 7. Anyone know why?
[23:40] <dirtynickels> I'm not using a usb hub
[23:40] <adamk> dirtynickels: Have you tried another USB port?
[23:40] <dirtynickels> yes
[23:40] <xubuntu5> did you connect these before boot or after boot?
[23:40] <adamk> Or if the drive has some external power, turn it off, wait a bit, and turn it back on.
[23:40] <dirtynickels> before booting
[23:40] <xubuntu5> yes are these portable drives or powered?
[23:41] <xubuntu5> try what adamk said
[23:41] <MystKid> that didnt do anything
[23:41] <dirtynickels> powered
[23:41] <MystKid> i run tune2fs -m 0 /dev/sda3
[23:41] <xubuntu5> what format are they? ntfs ?
[23:41] <dirtynickels> ext4
[23:41] <adamk> dirtynickels: Well this really sounds like a hardware problem to me.
[23:41] <xubuntu5> yes i'm stumped too
[23:42] <xubuntu5> do they work on another comp?
[23:42] <GeeksOnHugs> I was following steps on a site to fix an error and it had me sudo somethingsomething add repository something and sudo apt-update something and it failed...now Ubuntu Software Center won't open, I suspect it has something to do with what I did?
[23:42] <xubuntu5> GeeksOnHugs does this work sudo synaptic
[23:42] <xubuntu5> does synaptic run?
[23:42] <wylde_> MystKid: I'm not sure it will allow -m 0  did it give you an error?
[23:42] <GeeksOnHugs> lemme try
[23:43] <MystKid> wylde_:  no it seems it did the job correctly buty still 14gb used...
[23:43] <dirtynickels> is there a command to  check if the usb ports are failing
[23:43] <shaneo> hey guys im getting this error after changing my apache2 ports http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034684/ any suggestions
[23:43] <wylde_> MystKid: ahh ok, may change on a reboot I imagine.
[23:43] <GeeksOnHugs> xubuntu5 synaptic not found
[23:43] <GeeksOnHugs> command not found
[23:43] <MystKid> wylde_: well see.. rebooting the server now
[23:44] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: you have a named vhost that is conflicting
[23:45] <wylde_> MystKid: I remember losts of things I have read, just not always where/what/when I read them >.<
[23:45] <xubuntu5> GeekOnHugs does sudo apt-get -v show you anything?
[23:45] <w30> Relondo, Linux Ubuntu will call a Windows restore partition (drive) a windows install
[23:45] <wylde_> lots*
[23:45] <GeeksOnHugs> trying...
[23:45] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, how do i find where it is and remove it
[23:45] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: looked in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default?
[23:45] <dirtynickels> when I plug the drives into another machine it's all good they both mount to /media
[23:46] <xubuntu5> strange they should mount then maybe it's hardware issue like adamk said
[23:46] <Relondo> w30: I figured it out. I have remnants of a failed Ubuntu install. But thanks.e
[23:46] <MystKid> wylde_: still 14gb used
[23:46] <xubuntu5> when is the last time you restarted dirtynickels?
[23:46] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, yes all site instances have the port setup to *:7000 and there are no other virtual hosts
[23:46] <LittleBallOfHate> MystKid: there's also reserved space ona  drive that only root can use
[23:46] <wylde_> MystKid: odd
[23:46] <GeeksOnHugs> xubuntu5 http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034688/
[23:46] <dirtynickels> maybe a half hour ago
[23:46] <MystKid> well 14 gigs for reserved on home partition?
[23:47] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: do you have a named vhost and a *:7000 in there?
[23:47] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, nope
[23:47] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034690/
[23:47] <dirtynickels> everything was fine before the reboot
[23:48] <LittleBallOfHate> a vhost line like *:* or name:*
[23:48] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: make changes to apache2.conf?
[23:49] <MystKid> wylde_: this is impossible lol
[23:49] <wylde_> MystKid: firing up a VM, gonna try and jog my memory.
[23:49] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, i looked but didnt find anywhere to edit the ports
[23:50] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: all you did was edit 000-default and change 80 to 7000?
[23:50] <EDawg878_> how do your change permissons of folders locked by root using chmod?
[23:51] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, i edited ports.conf default and 000-default
[23:51] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: undo ports.conf
[23:51] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, ok than what?
[23:51] <graham_king> EDawg878_: You'd have to be root. "sudo chmod ..."
[23:51] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: service restart apache2
[23:52] <wilee-nilee> EDawg878_, do you need to or just mess with them?
[23:52] <LittleBallOfHate> er
[23:52] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: flip that
[23:52] <w30> Relondo, ah ha, my Grub 2 install calls my restore partition for Windows NT install for some reason but I kept it so I can sell it as a Windows box when I am done with it.
[23:52] <EDawg878_> i need to give 755 for a certain folder
[23:52] <Relondo> w30: Go it.
[23:52] <EDawg878_> but sudo chmod doesnt work
[23:52] <LittleBallOfHate> EDawg878_: what does it say?
[23:52] <wilee-nilee> EDawg878_, not sure myself, others will know. :)
[23:52] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, :) i know. ok all changes are made but im still getting the same error about 7000
[23:53] <EDawg878_> it it doesnt say anything
[23:53] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: wait, you changed both 80 to 7000 in ports.conf didn't you?
[23:54] <graham_king> EDawg878_: What does "sudo -l" say?
[23:54] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, yup
[23:54] <w30> Relondo, HP bios has a restore option button; I hope no one selects it though
[23:54] <EDawg878_> User eric may run the following commands on this host:     (ALL : ALL) ALL     (root) NOPASSWD: ALL
[23:54] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: not sure man
[23:54] <EDawg878_> oh nvm
[23:54] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, lemme guess listening port should be 80 but virtual port should be *:7000
[23:54] <EDawg878_> sudo
[23:55] <Relondo> w30: Good thing I'm on a Toshiba :)
[23:55] <EDawg878_> it says: User eric may run the following commands on this host:     (ALL : ALL) ALL     (root) NOPASSWD: ALL
[23:55] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: nah should all be able to be set to 7000 by changing just what you did.
[23:55] <shaneo> hmm
[23:55] <graham_king> EDawg878_: I'd expect sudo chmod to work. "sudo chmod 755 folder_name"
[23:55] <EDawg878_> sudo chmod _R 755 dir
[23:55] <EDawg878_> sudo chmod -R 755 dir
[23:56] <shaneo> now when i try to connect to wp i see http://<IP_ADDRESS>:7000/wordpress
[23:56] <EDawg878_> doesnt do anything
[23:56] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: so it works? or you're expecting something different?
[23:56] <Zoohouse> Is Ubuntu still giving out free accounts for their Cloud service like they were doing a while back?
[23:57] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, but the page fails to load
[23:57] <graham_king> EDawg878_: And does it work? I don't think chmod outputs anything if it succeeds.
[23:57] <sacarlson> shaneo: I just installed wordpress last week
[23:57] <LittleBallOfHate> shaneo: did it work on 80?
[23:57] <EDawg878_> graham_king:  no i checked with nautilus
[23:57] <shaneo> LittleBallOfHate, yup
[23:57] <Oer> Zoohouse, yes, 1 hour free >> https://try.cloud.ubuntu.com/
[23:58] <graham_king> EDawg878_: What about "sudo ls"?  I remember I signed up to it and everything. I had an account. They wanted us to uplodad music and stuff... Remember that?
[23:58] <EDawg878_> graham_king:  sudo ls works
[23:58] <shaneo> sacarlson, cool have fun with it i know i have been just made it public today still needs some work though
[23:59] <Oer> Zoohouse, you mean Ubuntu-one ? sorry, they only give away 5 GB for Free !
[23:59] <pengw> 5gb is sweet
[23:59] <Zoohouse> yea ubuntu one... Oer
[23:59] <sacarlson> shaneo: did you add Listen 7000 to /etc/apache2/ports.conf
