[10:45] <kendo> kil ifound this on wikipedia " PAE is supported by Intel Pentium Pro and later Pentium-series processors except most 400 MHz-bus versions of the Pentium M.[citation needed] It is also available on AMD processors such as the AMD Athlon and later AMD processor models."
[10:45] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis: i press hsit button. it writes "grup loading.." but after 5-6 seconds ubuntu started normally. and it gives me like always "ubuntu runs low graphic mode.". why grup menu does not strated event it writes that it starts :(
[10:45] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis: can you or someone connect me with teamviewer?
[10:46] <ubuntu_user99> please
[10:46] <Dr_willis> id guess the vm is not seeingf the key
[10:46] <moses_> k1l_: tyvm
[10:46] <Dr_willis> boot a live-iso and disable the lighddm service.. that way it boots to the console
[10:46] <Dr_willis> is another way
[10:46] <moses_> how come when i use the gui to go to users it doesnt show my new user with administrator privelages
[10:47] <Dr_willis> rename /etc/init/lightdm.conf to be /etc/init/lightdm.DONTRUN will disable light dm untill you rename it
[10:47] <Dr_willis> that would make the system go into the console mode also
[10:50] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis:  i start the grup (i dont know how). now i press the "e" key. it wants some paramters now. i will write "text" (without quotes) or "-text" or "--text" ?
[10:51] <Dr_willis> change 'quiet splash' to read 'text'
[10:51] <Dr_willis> or put text between the 2.. 'quiet text splash'
[10:54] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis:  ok i change the parameters? now which button i should use to boot with these parameters?
[10:55] <Dr_willis> it tells you at the bottom of that screen i recall...
[10:55]  * Dr_willis does it so automaticlly he dosent rember
[10:56] <[FreeBSD]> i think its f10
[10:56] <Dr_willis> and/or alt-b or alt-x or somthing
[10:56] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis:  it writes use ctrl x or f10 to boot, but i am worried if it will save the parameters for each time.
[10:57] <[FreeBSD]> ubuntu_user99: it wont
[10:57] <[FreeBSD]> youd have to ebter it in the grub cfg kernel cmd to be permenant
[10:57] <Dr_willis> the grub docs mentioned.. state that DOSENT happen that way
[10:57] <Dr_willis> its a one time deal
[10:59] <kendo> ok thanks anyway....
[11:03] <ubuntu_user99>  [FreeBSD]: oh. when i presss ctrl-x it open a a new comment line with "GRUP>"
[11:04] <[FreeBSD]> maybe the parameters you entered were wrong
[11:04] <[FreeBSD]> or wrong syntax
[11:04] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis: i dont understand how to boot with new parameters.
[11:04] <Dr_willis> or the vm is confuiseing the keys
[11:04] <moses_> does dropbox exist for ubuntu?
[11:04] <ubuntu_user99>  [FreeBSD]: i just change quiet splahs with: "quiet text splash"
[11:05] <somsip> moses_: yes
[11:05] <[FreeBSD]> use f10 over ctrl + whatever in a vm
[11:05] <[FreeBSD]> as ctrl sometimes acts as a special key
[11:05] <Dr_willis> just how we told you..   - i think you can hit f10 to boot also.. or some key combo to get back to the initial menu then hit enter after manking the changes
[11:05] <bekks> moses_: Sure.
[11:05] <Dr_willis> i bet YOUTUBE has some videos of doing this
[11:05] <moses_> cool cool
[11:06]  * Dr_willis wonders if the vm would behave better if it was fullscreend
[11:06] <[FreeBSD]> ubuntu_user99: what problem ar you having anyway, why you need to boot like this?
[11:06] <[FreeBSD]> Dr_willis: if its virtualbox it wont make a difference
[11:07] <ubuntu_user99> [FreeBSD]: f10 worked. now i am on command line.
[11:07] <[FreeBSD]> ubuntu_user99: ok
[11:07] <alphabravo> anyone who canhelp me with an adhoc problem?
[11:07] <ubuntu_user99> [FreeBSD]: thank you. :)
[11:07] <[FreeBSD]> werent me, twas Dr_willis :)
[11:08] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis which package exactly i should install from command like ?
[11:08] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis  sudo apt-get install guest-additional-vbox?
[11:08] <[FreeBSD]> ubuntu_user99: try apt-cache search additions
[11:08] <Dr_willis> first fix grub so it dosent auto hide.,
[11:09] <Dr_willis> then check the vbox wiki page/ and the vbox manual.    and do an 'apt-cache search vbox' to see what packages are there.. I used the cvbox guest addations from the vbox guest ISO... which  you mount via the vbox GUI/menu items i recall
[11:10] <raven_> how to send my ip adress periodically per mail? (need to do a selfmade dyndns)
[11:10] <ubuntu_user99>  Dr_willis: oh god :) i will mount and i will install from command line:)
[11:10] <alphabravo> anyone
[11:10] <ubuntu_user99> software center does not already have thse packages?
[11:10] <alphabravo> what packages?
[11:10] <Dr_willis> took me all of like 15 min i think to get lubuntu /ubuntu going in vbox here..  but that was 2 mo ago.
[11:11] <Dr_willis> search and see if they do ubuntu_user99 .
[11:11] <Dr_willis> i used the iso because its the latest ones.. and i think has extra features
[11:13] <snikker> i've run "sudo setfacl -d -R -m g:green-group:rwx /path/to/dir1", my user is into secondary group "green-group", but i'm unable to write into "dir1". Can you help me?
[11:13] <Dr_willis> its very likely theres premade ubuntu vbox images that have all this allready done.. but those could have other things also.
[11:13] <creativeoS> Check the DVD for your package - http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads - ships with extra software for installations without internet.
[11:14] <creativeoS> *ubuntu_user99*
[11:15] <ubuntu_user99> creativeoS: i have internet connection on vm at the moment. i will try to install directly from comman line. not by mounting or something..
[11:16] <ronalds> why kdenlive installs with no codes on 12.04
[11:16] <ronalds> codecs *
[11:16] <moses_> ty for everything im sleeping for now <3
[11:16] <creativeoS> alphabravo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[11:16] <ronalds> I don't get why user runs it to such problems
[11:16] <Dr_willis> https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#idp12039536
[11:17] <creativeoS> ubuntu_user99: Sure - do you have a stand alone partition on hdd..?
[11:17] <Dr_willis> Devices menu -> install guest addations...
[11:18] <creativeoS> ubuntu_user99: Alternatively you can view package directory just for the specific one you want without installation.
[11:18] <creativeoS> I don't know what the package will be called though.
[11:18] <ubuntu_user99> creativeoS: i dont k now what you mean with standalone :( but i write to comnand line install virtualbox-guest-additions. now started to download them.
[11:18] <ubuntu_user99> creativeoS: i will restart the vm when it finish.
[11:19] <ronalds> Unsupported video codec: libx264
[11:20] <creativeoS> ubuntu_user99: Standalone partition for virtualbox with allocated RAM. Works faster and is safer :-)
[11:20] <ronalds> I have restricted packages and kdenlive repo
[11:20] <ronalds> and it still doesn't works
[11:20] <ronalds> like back in the day
[11:20] <cristian_c> Jordan_U, any ideas?
[11:21] <ubuntu_user99>  creativeoS: i will research about standalone... it sound great..
[11:21] <creativeoS> It's just a partition on your HDD.
[11:22] <creativeoS> Dedicate it to any virtual machine work.
[11:23] <creativeoS> I also have a 20GB partition for my backups - just in case. This laptop has some of my favourite files on it :-)
[11:24] <ronalds> damn it ubuntu, kdenlive has all the needed codecs, installed but it doesn't allow to use them
[11:25] <Phoenixxl> Hello all , I currently have a machine that boots from a iscsi target using iPXE . I am planning to move that machine to a hypervisor with that drive dd'd to a storage device. I believe that , ince the kernel is loaded , iscsi initiator will try and connect to the iscsi again.. can anyone here tell me where in the inird archive i need to change it so it continues on the hardisk and doesn't try to boot from the iscsi targe
[11:25] <Phoenixxl> t ?
[11:27] <kuranevi>  hi everybody

[11:27] <kuranevi> the buttons failed!!!
[11:27]  * sasser test
[11:27] <ronalds> openshot: Depends: python (>= 2.5) bet 2.7.3-0ubuntu2
[11:28] <Phoenixxl> doctor it hurts when i laugh.
[11:28] <ronalds> what the f/**** is wrong with 12.04
[11:28] <ronalds> ............
[11:28] <apt-get_install> ronalds: nothing
[11:28] <ronalds> I don't understand why software doesn't installs
[11:28] <ronalds> all the time
[11:28] <apt-get_install> have tried the ppa?
[11:28] <ronalds> yes
[11:28] <ronalds> damn yes
[11:28] <CProetti> does anyone know how to make a active USB in ubuntu?
[11:28] <ronalds> damn it kdenlive openshot
[11:28] <apt-get_install> upgrade python?
[11:28] <ronalds> was aveable in past
[11:28] <ronalds> HOW?
[11:28] <sasser> try 12.10 , it's an update from 12.04
[11:28] <apt-get_install> CProetti: bootable?
[11:28] <ronalds> I don't want to upgrade
[11:29] <Phoenixxl> stick with 12.04
[11:29] <apt-get_install> no, 12.10 sucks
[11:29] <Phoenixxl> for your own sanity
[11:29] <Dr_willis> i thought there was 2 differnt pythons n the repos
[11:29] <sasser> and a LTS (long terms support)
[11:29] <Phoenixxl> in fact install 12.04.01 and upgrade from lthere
[11:29] <Phoenixxl> you woin't be stiuck with a 3.5 kernel
[11:29] <ronalds> LTS usually worked but now I can't get kdenlive openshot working
[11:30] <CProetti> apt-get_install  - yes, bootable
[11:30] <apt-get_install> even live CD comes with python 2.7
[11:30] <johnnyfireworks> 12.10 sucks stay with 12.04 or 10.04 or 10.10
[11:30] <creativeoS> Phoenixxl: Try - /server irc.oftc.net & /join #kernelnewbies.
[11:30] <CProetti> on windows i just need to mark it active in diskpar, tho how do i do this on ubuntu
[11:30] <kretenik> hey
[11:30] <apt-get_install> so i dont understand how u can have a version lower than 2.5
[11:30] <k1l_> johnnyfireworks: 10.10, 10.04 dont have support anymore. so refuse to suggest that here
[11:30] <Phoenixxl> creative5 , why ?
[11:30] <apt-get_install> CProetti: set a boot flag on the partition?
[11:31] <CProetti> yes
[11:31] <bekks> apt-get_install: Why do you need a version that old?
[11:31] <Phoenixxl> creative5 , they'll know more about iscsi booting ?
[11:31] <k1l_> ronalds: please show a "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get upgrade" in a pastebin
[11:31] <apt-get_install> bekks: what?
[11:32] <cristian_c> Another question:
[11:32] <cristian_c> How can I switch audio from mono to stereo?
[11:32] <bekks> apt-get_install: You just said, that you dont understand how to get a python version less than 2.5?
[11:32] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[11:32] <Phoenixxl> creative5 , I was thinking of trying ubuntu-server on here , but it's usually very quiet on there
[11:32] <ronalds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703261/
[11:33] <kuranevi> please help. i can't close, maximise or minimise  a window
[11:33] <kuranevi> the buttons failed!!!
[11:33] <apt-get_install> bekks: no, i said i didn't understand how ronalds could have a such an old version of python
[11:33] <Phoenixxl> ohnoes failed buttonz
[11:33] <bekks> apt-get_install: ah :)
[11:33] <apt-get_install> openshot complained about it, he said
[11:33] <k1l_> ronalds: ok, that is alot of PPAs, so i bet that is not a problem of ubuntu but of PPAs mixing all the depencies
[11:34] <CProetti> for changing audio i think you search 'sound' > select your device > change mode to 'stereo'
[11:34] <creativeoS> Phoenixxl: Yes. Or there is /freenode.org & /opensuse-kernel - although there aren't many people on channel.
[11:34] <ronalds> I don't get kdenlive I have there repo for ubuntu version
[11:34] <ronalds> and it doesn't works there is not codecs
[11:34] <ronalds> I have all the needed plugins and restricted packs
[11:34] <apt-get_install> ronalds: what version of oython do u have?
[11:34] <Phoenixxl> creative5 ok , ill have a look
[11:34] <creativeoS> Phoenixxl: Have you tried ##linux..?
[11:34] <ronalds> Python 2.7.3
[11:34] <Phoenixxl> creative5 no
[11:35] <kendo> kil_?
[11:35] <ronalds> shows in idle
[11:35] <kuranevi> i mean the buttons missed
[11:35] <cristian_c> CProetti, my profile is: duplex analog stereo
[11:35] <ronalds> I just want to kill ubuntu
[11:35] <apt-get_install> ronalds: so, why are openshot complaining?
[11:35] <apt-get_install> hmm... strane
[11:35] <ronalds> ask the damn thing
[11:35] <apt-get_install> maybe too many PPAs?
[11:35] <ronalds> I added only kdenlive
[11:35] <k1l_> ronalds: again: i think that is a problem of that many PPAs you have installed
[11:35] <creativeoS> PhoenixxL: Generic linux channel over 1000 people
[11:35] <k1l_> ronalds: show a "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" in pastebin please
[11:36] <CProetti> (not sure how to PM people yet)    cristian c   --- im still learning how to use ubuntu so i cant give you any advanced help, sorry
[11:36] <apt-get_install> k1l_: why would the size of the file help?
[11:36] <k1l_> apt-get_install: thats not for the size. that lists all PPAs
[11:36] <ronalds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703269/
[11:36] <k1l_> apt-get_install: just try it
[11:37] <Phoenixxl> creative5 in such huge channels in my experience the general channel IQ is deviced by  number of people
[11:37] <apt-get_install> k1l_: it lists all filesin that dir
[11:37] <kretenik> hey
[11:37] <apt-get_install> kretenik: hey
[11:37] <k1l_> apt-get_install: ok. do you know what files are in that dir?
[11:37] <Phoenixxl> creative5 asking things beyond "when I press A I get Q" gets no reply
[11:37] <apt-get_install> k1l_: oh, nice
[11:38] <apt-get_install> i didn't know that apt-get did that!
[11:38] <ronalds> openshot: Depends: python (>= 2.5) bet 2.7.3-0ubuntu2 will be installed
[11:38] <ronalds> still
[11:38] <apt-get_install> ronalds: do a sudo apt-get install -f
[11:38] <ubuntu_user99> Dr_willis: i installed vbox guest additionals. i restrt the vm. but the same error still: "ubuntu runs low graphic mode"
[11:38] <ronalds> Unsupported video codec: libx264 Unsupported video codec: libxvid in kdenlive
[11:39] <k1l_> ronalds: can you show the whole error message that apt brings you?
[11:39] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Did you install the guest additions in the very same version as vbox?
[11:39] <k1l_> ronalds: what das "apt-cache show python" give you?
[11:39] <ubuntu_user99> bekks:  very same version?
[11:40] <ubuntu_user99> bekks:  how can i know it?
[11:40] <ronalds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703277/
[11:40] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: By telling us which vbox version you have and how you installed the guest additions.
[11:40] <seweb2> hello
[11:40] <creativeoS> Just ask the question - You'll be able to tell if the help is valid or not
[11:40] <apt-get_install> ronalds: do a sudo apt-get install -f
[11:41] <ronalds> I did it didn't helped
[11:41] <Phoenixxl> ubuntu_user99 : sorry to butt in but are you running windows in a VM on a linux machine ?
[11:41] <ronalds> I'm stuck at misurable problems, that weren't before in LTS
[11:41] <ubuntu_user99>  bekks:  i use the lastet stable version of vbox. but i can not know which version i isntall with this command: sudo pat-get instal virtualbox-guest-additions
[11:41] <seweb2> Есть русские
[11:41] <ronalds> it's almost stock, except for kdenlive repo
[11:41] <seweb2> ?
[11:41] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Which version do you use, please tell us a version number.
[11:42] <ubuntu_user99>  Phoenixxl: i am running windows. i install vbox. and after that i installed ubunt on vbox.
[11:42] <Phoenixxl> In that cas I would recomend you try out vmware , if you haven't fully decided yet.
[11:42] <Phoenixxl> ubuntu_user99 You can use vmware player free of charge
[11:42] <apt-get_install> ronalds: try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[11:42] <bekks> Phoenixxl: Wrong. HE is just using the wrong guest additions.
[11:43] <Phoenixxl> bekks , wrong ?. wthere is no wrong or right
[11:43] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: vibox version: 4.2.12 ubutu version:12.04.2
[11:43] <Phoenixxl> bekks , I am merely advisong him to use the tried and tested tools

[11:43] <ubuntu_user99> Phoenixxl: vmare ? i should use vmare? :(
[11:43] <ronalds> DAMN IT
[11:43] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Phoenixxl: Installing virtualbox-guest-additions will install 4.1.x guest additions which are incompatible with vbox version 4.2.x
[11:44] <Phoenixxl> ubuntu-user99 vmware yes .
[11:44] <apt-get_install> as i said, broken packages
[11:44] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Phoenixxl: So its just a problem of the wrong guest additions.
[11:44] <ronalds> how can someone by default can run in to so many problems with damn packages
[11:44] <apt-get_install> can u give a full log?
[11:44] <ronalds> aren't ubuntu center supposed to give all working packages
[11:44] <Phoenixxl> bekks , it could very well be
[11:44] <Phoenixxl> bekks i'm not denying any of that
[11:44] <k1l_> ronalds. openshot is not in that PPA
[11:44] <ubuntu_user99> bekks:  how can i update my vbox-guest packgae?
[11:44] <ronalds> I feel like wasting part of my life with this damn thing
[11:45] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: i am ubuntu'S console now?
[11:45] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: For installing the correct version, uninstall that package, and install the guest additions as described in the vbox manual.

[11:45] <k1l_> !language | ronalds
[11:45] <ronalds> last night after these problems, I tried to upgrade to 13.04 like back in the day, but it failes
[11:45] <ubuntu_user99> phoenixxl: i will not use vmare. i want to use vbox. if there is no solution i will not use anthing.
[11:45] <apt-get_install> ronalds: give us a full logg
[11:45] <apt-get_install> *log
[11:45] <Phoenixxl> bekks , ubuntu_user99 but if any doubt exists yet as to which hypervisor to use , I'd really go for vmware workstation for the install then switch to vmware player once it's finished
[11:45] <bekks> Phoenixxl: I'd not use vmware on linux.
[11:46] <Phoenixxl> bekks me neither
[11:46] <Phoenixxl> bekks on linux i'd use kvm
[11:46] <ronalds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703290/
[11:46] <bekks> Phoenixxl: Then lets move on now, and get back to the support issue he is having.
[11:46] <ronalds> another log for nothing
[11:47] <ubuntu_user99> Phoenixxl: bekks: can someone connect me with teamviewer?
[11:47] <ubuntu_user99> please
[11:47] <k1l_> ronalds: install -f doenst work with package name
[11:48] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: I wont, there is no need to. I just told you what to do.
[11:48] <k1l_> just install -f
[11:48] <ronalds> I did it also
[11:48] <ronalds> nothing was result
[11:48] <apt-get_install> ronalds: hmm.. it's not in english... can you run a unset LANG and then try agian?
[11:48] <apt-get_install> apt-get_install: never mind
[11:48] <ronalds> no I can't latvian is my native
[11:48] <apt-get_install> ronalds: never mind
[11:49] <k1l_> ronalds: that is another problem mentioned
[11:49] <k1l_> python-mlt3
[11:49] <apt-get_install> ronalds: how's the disk size?
[11:49] <apt-get_install> is it enough space?
[11:50] <k1l_> ronalds: im sure its the kdenlive PPA that spoils that python mlt
[11:50] <ronalds> 30 gb (because of last night frustrating process for upgrade to 13.04, installing kubuntu, and later getting back to ubuntu, making da** partitions)
[11:50] <ronalds> I took it out
[11:51] <ronalds> now it install openshot
[11:52] <ronalds> suprisingly
[11:52] <k1l_> use ppa-purge
[11:52] <ronalds> I did it trought gui
[11:52] <ronalds> btw why software sources are missing now in 12.04?
[11:52] <ronalds> there was shortcut back in the day
[11:52] <k1l_> ok. ronalds so all the drama because you didnt listen in the first place about the PPAs :/
[11:53] <apt-get_install> ronalds: can you check for sure?
[11:53] <ronalds> yes, it's gone, only ubuntu software center is left
[11:53] <k1l_> software sources is still available. just not as a menu entry
[11:53] <k1l_> (due to gnome policy)
[11:54] <ronalds> I know, I just sad it
[11:54] <apt-get_install> ronalds: run df -h
[11:54] <ronalds> I should send email, to kdenlive developers that there page has broken repos for 12.04
[11:57] <ronalds> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703309/
[11:57] <ronalds> apt get
[11:58] <apt-get_install> ronalds: shouldn't be a problem with the disk size then
[11:59] <ronalds> kdenlive works, openshot installed tnx
[12:04] <calmcoder> Question: 2 Ubuntu pc's on Wifi-LAN (Adsl router), [ubuntu 10.04] successfully pings [ubuntu 12.10], after a couple of minutes ping fails, [12.10] pings [10.04] successfully, after which [10.04] again pings [12.10] successfully, [12.10] successfully connect to internet for entire duration. Why does ubuntu 12.10 become unreachable on LAN after some time?
[12:05] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/11709
[12:05] <ubuntu_user99> bekks:  what should i do now? :(
[12:06] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: I told you. Uninstal the guest additions package and install the guest additions following the vbox manual.
[12:06] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: There is an entire chapter regarding the guest additions in the vbox manual.
[12:07] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: okey but when i research about it, isee this topic.
[12:07] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: And I told you on how to solve your specific issue :)
[12:07] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: VirtualBox Guest Additions 4.2.12 breaks Ubuntu 12.04 guest. so if will install these packages, my ubuntu will crash.
[12:08] <vak> is it possible to upgrade from 12.03 to 13.10?
[12:08] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: you told me to install 4.2.12 packgaes of virtualbox-guest-additional.
[12:08] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Thats entirely a lie. It doesnt do it, I am running several 12.04 installations in vbox without problem.
[12:08] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: I told you to install 4.2.12 guest additions when using vbox 4.2.12
[12:08] <Dr_willis> I just use the vbox guest .iso thing from its menus.
[12:09] <bekks> Thats what the vbox manual states.
[12:09] <Dr_willis> it compiles it for whatever  you got installed.
[12:09] <ubuntu_user99>  bekks: send me your vm hadd :D:D:
[12:09] <alberto> hi i need too much help recently i upgraded to ubuntu 13.04 and had two problems the most  easiest (i think) its empathy dont coonect to facebook  it open a manager and it open a browser and the browser ask for my data  user and pass and says warning security use this url  as your password and dont share whith nobody
[12:09] <cfhowlett> vak, as there is IS no 12.03 ... no.
[12:09] <alberto> and empathy dont cnet or do nothing?
[12:09] <cfhowlett> vak, also, 12.10 isn't even out yet ...
[12:09] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Pay me, or just finally read the vbox manual.
[12:09] <cfhowlett> vak, 13.10
[12:10] <vak> LOL i'm still somewhat sleeping
[12:10] <ubuntu_user99> bekks:  :D
[12:10] <vak> is it possible to upgrade from 12.04.2 to 13.10?
[12:10] <vak> cfhowlett: i've corrected my question )
[12:11] <Dr_willis> vak,  of course
[12:11] <Dr_willis> !upgrade
[12:11] <cfhowlett> vak, not directly
[12:11] <Ben64> 13.10 isn't released yet
[12:11] <vak> cfhowlett: directly or step-by-step?
[12:11] <vak> oh
[12:11] <vak> you read my mind
[12:11] <Dr_willis> lts to lts - directly.. other wise its one release at a time
[12:11] <apt-get_install> vak: yes
[12:12] <apt-get_install> sudo apt-get disk-upgrade
[12:12] <Ben64> would be easier to wait until 14.04
[12:12] <apt-get_install> *dist-upgrade
[12:12] <cfhowlett> vak, 12.04 is LTS.   13.10 will not be...
[12:12] <SunTsu> ubuntu_user99: I'm running 12.04 in vbox, too, no issues
[12:12] <vak> cfhowlett: it is my own dev box, so I don't care much about LTS
[12:12] <Dr_willis> 13.04 in vbox her.. but i did in stall lubuntu, then added ubuntu
[12:13] <ubuntu_user99> SunTsu: did you installed vbox-guest additionas?
[12:13] <vak> apt-get_install: so, you mean it is possible to upgrade directly??
[12:13] <SunTsu> ubuntu_user99: of course
[12:13] <apt-get_install> vak: yes
[12:13] <Ben64> vak: nope. 12.04 -> 12.10 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 -> 14.04 or 12.04 -> 14.04
[12:13] <apt-get_install> of course
[12:13] <ubuntu_user99> SunTsu: hmm. which which comnad did you do that?
[12:14] <vak> hm... different opinions...
[12:14] <DottorLeo> hi!
[12:14] <apt-get_install> Ben64: u can upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04, i think
[12:14] <Ben64> mine is fact, not opinion
[12:14] <Ben64> apt-get_install: not directly
[12:14] <apt-get_install> without 12.10
[12:14] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: sudo apt-get purge virtualbox-guest-additions
[12:14] <Dr_willis> LTS to LTS.. OR one release at a time...
[12:14] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: And then start reading the vbox manual. Is it really tjat hard?
[12:14] <cfhowlett> vak, or go 12.04 to 14.04 :)
[12:14] <DottorLeo> i need an advice to determine if *buntu is the right choice
[12:15] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: i am not reading anything yet. i am gooling it. but i could not found how to isntrall for specific version of guest additionals.
[12:15] <cfhowlett> DottorLeo, we're biased, but ask ...
[12:15] <vak> argghhh guys, you blow my weaked mind on this cold Sunday )
[12:15] <SunTsu> ubuntu_user99: I used the "virtual iso" to compile and install the guest additions
[12:15] <calmcoder> Question: 2 Ubuntu pc's on Wifi-LAN (Adsl router), [ubuntu 10.04] successfully pings [ubuntu 12.10], after a couple of minutes ping fails, [12.10] pings [10.04] successfully, after which [10.04] again pings [12.10] successfully, [12.10] successfully connect to internet for entire duration. Why does ubuntu 12.10 become unreachable on LAN after some time?
[12:16] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: i have already type this command: "sudo apt-get virtualbox-guest-additions". purge is a must?
[12:16] <DottorLeo> i need a distro that install only the system but NOT the programs for video, audio, office, etc... i want to do that by myself after
[12:16] <DottorLeo> i need only a barebone system
[12:16] <DottorLeo> and after that i will customize it
[12:16] <Dr_willis> !mini | DottorLeo
[12:16] <cfhowlett> !mini|DottorLeo,
[12:16] <cfhowlett> Dr_willis, beat by half a pic-second
[12:17] <DottorLeo> oh, nice!
[12:17] <DottorLeo> well another question
[12:17] <Dr_willis> then he will be constantly asking how to install all the other stuff for the next 3 days.. ;P
[12:17] <DottorLeo> XFCE or LXDE? Target will be an Acer Aspire one netbook
[12:17] <TsukasaUjiie> okay. assistance required. getting rejections from all my credentials at textbased login terminal. have reset passwords in recovery and using a livecd and chroot with no joy. suggestions before I do a clean install?
[12:17] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Yes, purge is a must.
[12:17] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: And why dont you start reading?
[12:17] <Dr_willis> DottorLeo,  either will work.. My netvooks can handle unity
[12:18] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: i am alwyas googleing first about something. if will not foudn something i will read the doc of it.
[12:18] <Dr_willis> the vbox docs save a lot of googling...
[12:19] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Then find a solution for you problem yourself if you refuse to follow the suggestions you get.
[12:19] <Parsi> has anyone use rEFInd?
[12:19] <Parsi> used*
[12:19] <bekks> ubuntu_user99: Good luck doing so.
[12:19] <cfhowlett> DottorLeo, new model netbook?  xfce and lxde look different but have similar system deamns
[12:19] <cfhowlett> DottorLeo, *demands*   dern finger dyslexia
[12:20] <TsukasaUjiie> is there anything besides passwd and shadow that could prevent login attempts?
[12:20] <bekks> TsukasaUjiie: Lack of disk space, wrong account.
[12:21] <Ben64> TsukasaUjiie: capital letters
[12:21] <TsukasaUjiie> bekks: clean install with plenty of space, correct accounts, have reset passwords several times, correct case
[12:21] <DottorLeo> Specs here http://www.cnet.com/laptops/acer-aspire-one-d250/4507-3121_7-33676723.html
[12:21] <TsukasaUjiie> any other possible offenders?
[12:22] <Ben64> TsukasaUjiie: how are you resetting
[12:22] <TsukasaUjiie> have tried both using recovery mode and chrooting with a livecd
[12:22] <Ben64> ok, how in recovery mode
[12:23] <TsukasaUjiie> boot into single user, mount system partition, chroot into it and set for both root and my account using passwd
[12:23] <Ben64> why are you chrooting? and why set root pass?
[12:23] <TsukasaUjiie> uuuuh
[12:24] <TsukasaUjiie> why not? an because I cant log into either root or my account from login prompt. both return incorrect password
[12:24] <bekks> !root | TsukasaUjiie
[12:24] <bekks> TsukasaUjiie: Use sudo instead of root.
[12:24] <TsukasaUjiie> no
[12:24] <TsukasaUjiie> I mean
[12:24] <TsukasaUjiie> at a login prompt
[12:24] <TsukasaUjiie> after first booting up the machine
[12:25] <Ben64> you don't need to chroot in recovery mode
[12:25] <Ben64> you're doing something wrong
[12:26] <TsukasaUjiie> ok, regardless, I am 99% certain that the passwords in shadow are correct
[12:26] <TsukasaUjiie> what else could be throwing this issue
[12:26] <Ben64> the problem is you're doing it wrong
[12:27] <TsukasaUjiie> ok
[12:27] <TsukasaUjiie> let me do it again
[12:27] <TsukasaUjiie> without chroot in recovery, and If I still have the issue Ill come back?
[12:28] <Ben64> sure
[12:28] <TsukasaUjiie> cool, two min :)

[12:41] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all

[12:42] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: you did not tell me abou this.
[12:42] <cfhowlett> must_know, clean out your repos, go back to defaults.  add one by one and test functionality
[12:43] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: you told me about guest additions which will solve the login problme, but not command line...
[12:43] <must_know> cfgowlett , ubuntu is not starting, in root prompt, cant edit the source.list..
[12:43] <lomo7> how can i know if my mb have dual bios so i can switch?
[12:43] <ubuntu_user99> bekks: i can already loggin on command line. but mostly i can not. i dont know why.
[12:43] <must_know> cfhowlett
[12:44] <bekks> lomo7: By looking it up in the manual of your mainboard.
[12:44] <lomo7> how can i know if my motherboard have dual bios so i can switch? i messed with the current one.. asrock 970 extreme4
[12:44] <lomo7> bekks: it's in other language than i know..
[12:44] <cfhowlett> must_know, if you can't even get root prompt, I'd suggest you reinstall.  possible that someone else has better suggestion
[12:45] <must_know> any idea how to enable , wireless connection from root shell , before xorg starts ?
[12:46] <borys> HELLO
[12:46] <cfhowlett> borys, greetings ... and drop the caps please
[12:47] <TsukasaUjiie> ben65: turns out Im an idiot and had bad shells set in passwd
[12:49] <ksbalaji> what is this debian X-Virus ? I have received an email with  Debian amavisd-new at carpathia.gov.ua address. Is this harmful? Please advise.
[12:49] <daftykins> ksbalaji: i doubt anything from .gov.ua would email you about debian viruses
[12:50] <cfhowlett> ksbalaji, spam...
[12:50] <ksbalaji> cfhowlett: thanks. But, is it harmful? Does it contain virus?
[12:51] <daftykins> ksbalaji: who cares? just delete it
[12:52] <cfhowlett> ksbalaji, the letter is spam.  any attachments would likely be the malware payload.  You did NOT open, rigth?
[12:54] <ksbalaji> cfhowlett: Would it affect Linuxware? I got suspicious and saw the full header. It went thus: http://pastebin.com/1Z972LwY
[12:55] <cfhowlett> ksbalaji, I'm not qualified to address your question sensibly, but it's certainly possible.  I'd suggest you delete the message, blacklist the address and watch watch your system for weird behavior.
[12:55] <auronandace> ksbalaji: we deal with ubuntu support issues here
[12:56] <iceroot> ksbalaji: X-Virus is a flag added by clamav or something like that and will mark a mail as "virus scanned"
[12:56] <iceroot> ksbalaji: and its offtopic here :)
[12:56] <ksbalaji> auronandace: Would not an information affecting ubuntu system welcome here? I thought it could be.
[12:57] <iceroot> ksbalaji: X-Virus-Scanned: Debian amavisd-new at carpathia.gov.ua

[12:57] <iceroot> ksbalaji: the string said it already, scanned by amavisd-new which is a content-filter for example postfix

[12:57] <bel13v3rs> hello
[12:57] <cfhowlett> bel13v3rs, greetings
[12:58] <bel13v3rs> little question, I have fluxbox and installed qtconfig to change the themes from keepassx and vlc, but when I start the software, I get the following message: could not find a Qt installation of ''
[12:59] <ksbalaji> ok thanks friends. I trust this spam does not affect a linux system.
[12:59] <iceroot> ksbalaji: spam will never affect a system
[13:00] <iceroot> ksbalaji: have a look at wikipedia what "spam" means, also have a look what "x-virus-scanned" mean
[13:01] <ksbalaji> iceroot: :( ? ok. That makes sense and gives comfort. Bye!
[13:02] <betrayd> beli3v3rs add a new user but dont set his desktop to openbox, use the default. Sign on as the new user and proceed to troubleshoot from there (as new user or as root)
[13:02] <iceroot> ksbalaji: but its always! a good idea to ask if you are not sure if something is secure. never trust something you dont understand
[13:02] <iceroot> ksbalaji: so you are welcome here for your ubuntu related support-questions
[13:04] <bel13v3rs> betrayd: there is no other session, or do you mean in the terminal
[13:05] <betrayd> beli3v3rs so other than openbox you managed to delete unity or w/e
[13:06] <bel13v3rs> and i use openbox
[13:07] <Magne1> #Votez_Pour_Moi
[13:07] <bel13v3rs> fluxbox
[13:07] <betrayd> beli3v3rs you could set this new user to use openbox but without the new theme, use openbox default skin
[13:07] <bel13v3rs> I mean fluxbox
[13:08] <betrayd>  same treatment
[13:08] <bel13v3rs> ok thx I try
[13:09] <betrayd> in some cases deleting the dot file might reset the user's theme, just be careful
[13:11] <m1chael> hello. i'm having a terrible time with a new laptop that i bought. its running windows 8. i installed xubuntu 13.04 to a 32gb usb flash drive... i can boot to the drive and get in to xubuntu, however, when i remove the drive and reboot windows 8 gives me a "Preparing Automatic Repair" screen that is very annoying, and hard-shutting it off and rebooting seems to get rid of it. and not to mention
[13:11] <m1chael> the wifi/touchpad issues in xubuntu- and xubuntu seems very slow once the desktop is booted- it takes a few minutes to act normal. any ideas?

[13:35] <bekks> num7: What is "RAM-refresh"?
[13:35] <yeehi> thank you lotuspsychje - but how?

[13:35] <daftykins> num7: trust me, you'd know if your RAM was bad
[13:36] <CKLMN> i dont want to block the port
[13:36] <CKLMN> just close it
[13:36] <CKLMN> then another program will reopen it
[13:36] <bekks> CKLMN: Then close/stop the program.
[13:36] <bekks> CKLMN: Thats the only way.
[13:37] <CKLMN> ok lemme tell u the problem , i have a child process that inherits from parent the open port , so i dont want to kill the child , just close the port that the parent opened before

[13:49] <sasuke> hi
[13:50] <sasuke> Im having a weird issue regarding my external (ntfs) hdd. there is one file on the drive which i cannot get rid of it keeps giving me "rm: cannot access file_name Input/Output error"
[13:51] <sasuke> whenever i do ls -lart on it i get "-????????? ? ?    ?       ?            ? file_name".. Any suggestions
[13:51] <gajesh> i have issues with woobly windows in 13.04 can anyone help out? please
[13:51] <lotuspsychje> sasuke: you might wanna reformat the drive
[13:51] <bekks> sasuke: That looks like a corrupted filesystem. Check the drive using Windows.
[13:51] <private_meta> hey, can someone tell me where the install location for the php executable is on ubuntu? I can't seem to find it
[13:52] <gajesh> woobly windows makes my screen freez
[13:52] <sasuke> bekks, i tried in windows.. it didnt show any errors
[13:52] <bekks> private_meta: How did you install it?
[13:52] <bekks> sasuke: Did you run chkdsk in windows?
[13:53] <private_meta> bekks: actually, I don't quite know, it's been a long time, most likely it's been installed with the default installation of the lamp stack I had on the server
[13:53] <sasuke> lotuspsychje, any other solution. i cant format it
[13:53] <bekks> private_meta: Then try "which php" first.
[13:53] <sasuke> bekks, i did disk_check which is in properties
[13:53] <private_meta> bekks: already did that, no result
[13:53] <gajesh> How to delete lost+found in my home directory?
[13:53] <bekks> private_meta: Then you might have installed it as cgi or as apache module only.
[13:53] <private_meta> might be it
[13:54] <bekks> gajesh: You cant. It will be recreated at next filesystem check.
[13:54] <bekks> gajesh: And having it dont hurt.
[13:54] <gajesh> ok thanks
[13:54] <private_meta> bekks: php5 is already the newest version.
[13:54] <bekks> private_meta: Yeah, still the above applies.
[13:54] <sasuke> bekks, fsck / e2fsk will help. if i ran it
[13:55] <bekks> sasuke: Thats not checking the smart capabilities.
[13:55] <bekks> !smart | sasuke
[13:55] <private_meta> bekks: ah, the package php5-cli was missing, I'll try that
[13:56] <bekks> private_meta: It wasnt missing. You dont need it for running PHP on your webserver.
[13:56] <private_meta> bekks: I meant not installed
[13:56] <private_meta> bekks: missing for what I needed it for right now
[13:56] <sasuke> bekks, got it... thanx
[13:59] <private_meta> Ok, works, thanks

[14:10] <acovrig> Can I have the top menu bar only on the primary display (and not both)
[14:10] <acovrig> I'm on ubuntu 13.04 with Unity (not Gnome 3)
[14:17] <private_meta> Small question. this, as a single line (given the paths were the right ones) would build a screen with given name and execute given command with parameters at every system boot:
[14:17] <private_meta> @reboot screen -S screenname /usr/bin/command parameters > /home/meta/output.log
[14:17] <private_meta> AND pipe the output to file
[14:19] <acovrig> private_meta, whats the question?
[14:19] <private_meta> acovrig: Do you suppose this line, in crontab, does what I expect and wrote?
[14:20] <private_meta>  /described
[14:22] <glebihan> private_meta, yes, except that you need to provide to full path to the screen command, ie /usr/bin/screen  (same thing for any file path you pass as a parameter)
[14:22] <private_meta> ah ok
[14:22] <private_meta> glebihan: thanks for the hint
[14:22] <glebihan> private_meta, you're welcome
[14:24] <private_meta> glebihan: There is no additional parameter at startup needed so this is put into background right away?
[14:24] <Parsi> how can i use https proxy on ubuntu? something like proxifier on windows
[14:25] <alocer> parsi proxychains
[14:25] <alocer> Parsi that is package on linux
[14:25] <acovrig> private_meta, yes, but you may need '-d -m' to start the screen, but don't attach to it (if you are running from cron it may be required)
[14:27] <private_meta> acovrig: Can you tell me why? d says it tries to reattach a screen, but why do that at boot, it's the only screen by that name and that command. also, when looking at man, I don't see why m is to be used as well >_>
[14:29] <creativeoS> Hey all. I need to delete xchat profile directory/cache. How do I do this..?
[14:30] <subz3r0> creativeoS: ~/.xchat2 - have a look there...
[14:30] <acovrig> private_meta, I don't see why the -m, but I was reading the man page; the -d should start screen detached
[14:30] <daftykins> can you make the login screen the same resolution as your desktop res? for like in a VM where the native resolution isn't auto set
[14:30] <Carbonjuicer> Helloo
[14:31] <Carbonjuicer> I am here to ask some questions...
[14:31] <Carbonjuicer> About ubuntu server
[14:31] <creativeoS> suz3ro: can I... rm -r ~/.xchat2..?
[14:32] <creativeoS> subz3ro: I ran twice and second time it said no such directory - I think it worked, thanks.
[14:33] <subz3r0> is there a channel on freenode which cares about subnetting? :)
[14:33] <auronandace> !alis | subz3r0
[14:33] <subz3r0> auronandace: thx
[14:33]  * LFS please advise if this is the right syntax to perfectly shred all files sudo shred -u -v -f -z /home/username/*
[14:33] <tones> what is the gui steps for accessing that xchat directory?
[14:34] <subz3r0> tones: hit ctrl +h to view hidden dirs and files
[14:34] <subz3r0> @your home dir
[14:35] <tones> thanks
[14:35] <LFS> gr8
[14:39] <rotham> hey
[14:40] <rotham> what file do I have to add my exports and path modifications to in order to make it availabe when i run with sudo?
[14:40] <leifpa> hey my ubuntu server crashes overnight, according to webmin system stats, with a jump from 160 processes to 11.000 processes is there any log where i can see which process that is?
[14:42] <wildwind> leifpa: AFAIK webmin itself doesn't save any history. maybe grepping /var/log can help...
[14:43] <secret_ninja> is this best place to go for help with using tv out on nvidia video under ubuntu?
[14:44] <leifpa> wildwind: but what should i grep for? ive been searching in syslog messages and dmesg at the time with that heavy spike but couldnt find anything
[14:44] <zykotick9> leifpa: FYI, using webmin on ubuntu (or debian) is a bad idea.  see "/msg ubottu webmin" for some details.  you should expect issues!
[14:45] <secret_ninja> where can i find a list of options for nvidia xserver?
[14:46] <wildwind> leifpa: dunno sorry. maybe it's time to think about good monitoring system that saves history. like munin for ex.
[14:47] <gotwig> where can I find an overview of all sections for debian packages
[14:47] <wildwind> leifpa: also try searching for something like oomkiller
[14:47] <leifpa> wildwind: thank you i will look into munin and oomkiller
[14:48] <wildwind> leifpa: i mean search the logs for 'oomkiller'
[14:48] <secret_ninja> anybody real good with X? tv output options for nvidia fx5200?
[14:48] <leifpa> wildwind: oh okay sorry will do that then :)
[14:48] <nessonett> Booting linux mint Isodora and drops me in initramfs says No init found.  Try passing init=bootarg.  I'm trying to see if I can run toggle the install to run fdisk from grub?
[14:49] <secret_ninja> i have it working, just want to tune it to my preferences..
[14:49] <kimir> How can I force ubuntu to preload certain apps so that when they are started they dont take ages to load?
[14:49] <bekks> !mint | nessonett
[14:49] <daftykins> secret_ninja: over what interface? HDMI?
[14:50] <secret_ninja> s-video
[14:50] <daftykins> eww
[14:50] <daftykins> xrandr might help you
[14:50] <daftykins> in fact yeah, FX5200 is too old for HDMI :D
[14:50] <secret_ninja> yea
[14:51] <secret_ninja> 13.04 is absolutely the *most* plug and play linux i have ever installed...
[14:51] <raven_> i need to start two mencoder recordings at system startup - how to do that the best way?
[14:51] <secret_ninja> i dont think ive ever had my svideo out working..
[14:51] <andrea__> hi
[14:51] <harris> hello
[14:52] <secret_ninja> raven: /etc/rc.d/init.d
[14:53] <wildwind> raven_: or /etc/rc.local
[14:53] <raven_> secret_ninja, how exactly? i entered it into rc.local with tmux encapsulation too but it of course only runs one command wildwind
[14:55] <secret_ninja> which runstate do you want it to be running in? 3? or 5?
[14:55] <wildwind> raven_: you put there a script that does everything
[14:55] <raven_> wildwind, i did too but it only runs one mencoder line because it is serial?
[14:56] <secret_ninja> use the &
[14:56] <secret_ninja> use the "&" symbol.
[15:00] <secret_ninja> what is xrandr?
[15:00] <thegladiator> are there any good terminal softwares - like terminology ?
[15:00] <auronandace> !xrandr | secret_ninja
[15:01] <thegladiator> for enlightenment
[15:01] <secret_ninja> nice, thnx
[15:03] <Guest67634> how should I know if I have opensource radeon driver installed by default
[15:04] <auronandace> Guest67634: lsmod will show you what driver is currently loaded
[15:04] <BluesKaj> Guest67634, dkms status
[15:05] <wildwind> Guest67634: you can be sure. Ubuntu doesn't install proprietary by default
[15:07] <Guest67634> BluesKaj, dkms status is not showing any thing
[15:08] <Guest67634> wildwind, but will ubntu install opensource radeon driver by default ?
[15:08] <kristenbb> hi, how can I access my encrypted home from a live cd ? I tried mounting the system (and binding proc, sys and dev) and then chrooting into it, but when I 'su kristenbb', it says: 'open: permission denied. error locking counter'. How to avoid that ?
[15:09] <yeehi> nautilus doesn't have a place i can paste a directory for navigation. How do I get the place to paste?
[15:09] <bekks> !encfs | kristenbb
[15:09] <wildwind> Guest67634: you mean when OS is installed first time?
[15:09] <Guest67634> wildwind,  yeah
[15:09] <wildwind> yeehi: Ctrl+L
[15:09] <kristenbb> bekks: you mean ecryptfs ? I know that's what i need to use, but even before I get there, I get this error I just mentioned.
[15:10] <yeehi> thanks, wildwind - what todes the L stand for?
[15:10] <bekks> kristenbb: You need to unencrypt your home.
[15:10] <wildwind> yeehi: location i suppose
[15:10] <kristenbb> bekks: yes I do, how to ?
[15:11] <yeehi> ah -yes, that will be easier to remeber now, wildwind - most kind of you!
[15:11] <bekks> kristenbb: http://askubuntu.com/questions/138950/how-to-disable-encrypted-home-directory
[15:12] <wildwind> Guest67634: see my answer. if ati is detected, radeon installed. didn't check last beta myself though
[15:13] <kristenbb> bekks: well undoing the setup is not what i'm looking for, i'd just like to access the files. I could use ecryptfs-mount-private, but as I said, I get an error before, during the chroot operation.
[15:14] <BluesKaj> Guest67634, lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' , include the quotes
[15:14] <Guest67634> wildwind,  okay .. i think radeon is installed ..here is my pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/5703800/
[15:15] <wildwind> Guest67634: yes it is
[15:15] <Guest67634> BluesKaj,  yeah radeon is installed :)
[15:16] <BluesKaj> Guest67634, good
[15:17] <Guest67634> now since driver is installed i will have to find out  why my fan is running in full speed :)   wildwind  BluesKaj
[15:17] <roy_> hello, anyone here
[15:17] <wildwind> !ask | roy_
[15:17] <BluesKaj> Guest67634, I'll let wildwind and others handle that , I'm on a desktop
[15:18] <malucious> I have X breakage this morning. My nvidia module fails to load on start up. but it will initiate when I do a lightdm restart. Can anyone fix my X?
[15:19] <mojtaba> Hi, Has anybody installed xbmc on ubuntu?
[15:19] <auronandace> mojtaba: it is in the repos
[15:19] <wildwind> BluesKaj:  Guest67634: unfortunately i had no deal with dual graphics at all. :(
[15:20] <noo> In both the unity 13.04 and gnome 13.04 versions of Ubuntu, the mouse pointer on my computer jumps up or down erratically of its own will from time to time while I am trying to move it making the OS unusable. Any suggestions? Please note it has nothing to do with the sensitivity settings of the mouse or touch pad
[15:21] <bekks> noo: Which gnome version?
[15:21] <Guest67634> okay wildwind  :(   ..should I go with proprietary driver
[15:21] <wildwind> Guest67634: suggest checking gpu  temp first
[15:21] <bekks> noo: I mean - there is ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu and lubuntu - which gnome version do you mean?
[15:21] <noo> nekks: i already said Ubuntu
[15:22] <noo> bekks: i already said Ubuntu
[15:22] <mojtaba> auronandace: thanks
[15:22] <auronandace> bekks: starting with 13.04 there is an official gnome version of ubuntu
[15:22] <hemangpatel> Hello ubuntu guys
[15:22] <BluesKaj> Guest67634, are you on dual graphics or do you have a pci graphics card installed ?
[15:22] <bekks> auronandace: How is it called - gubuntu?
[15:22] <roy_> ok, I just want to know how to cleanup the wast, help me, thanks
[15:23] <noo> bekks: its called Ubuntu-Gnome 13.04
[15:23] <auronandace> bekks: i'm not sure sorry but it is official
[15:23] <Guest67634> BluesKaj,  I'm having dual graphics
[15:23] <Guest67634> wildwind, yeah just checking it
[15:24] <wildwind> roy_: waste? what is waste for you?
[15:24] <bekks> auronandace: I think so. cdimage.ubuntu.com hosts it.
[15:24] <hemangpatel> I want dual boot ubuntu with windows 7 using windows bootloader. So i create two partition for linux 1. root (/) 2. home(/home) and then install grub bootloader in root partition. and from windows i add one entry in boot menu of windows which points to root partition.
[15:25] <hemangpatel> But when i select linux partition after reboot it gives command propmt of grub2
[15:25] <wildwind> noo: has it started recently? after what?
[15:25] <noo> wildwind: its been like this since install and reinstalls
[15:26] <hemangpatel> exactly like this, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting#grub.3E-1
[15:26] <hemangpatel> what is the solution. thanks
[15:26] <wildwind> noo: maybe the problem is with mouse itself or surface where it runs
[15:27] <sim_> someone here for technical problems with start up ubuntu=
[15:27] <sim_> ?
[15:27] <noo> wildwind: nothing else has been installed. Just the basic OS. Not sure if anyone else is experiencing it as well. No its not that. Its a sony vaio with both a touch pad and a mouse stick ibm type
[15:28] <bekks> sim_: Just ask please.
[15:28] <roy_> It's no use temporary files,  etc.
[15:28] <sim_> after starting up ubuntu normally i am just getting a black screen, i am only able to see and move mouse.
[15:29] <wildwind> roy_: you can rm -rf /temp
[15:30] <roy_> thanks, I try
[15:31] <wildwind> roy_: if your goal is to free space you better use baobab and decide what's needed and what's not
[15:32] <Guest75098> !list
[15:33] <wildwind> noo: sony's mouse stick can have limited support or bugs in drivers. try googling your model + problem desctiption
[15:33] <hemangpatel> anyone please

[15:41] <emr> wildwind, file not exists
[15:42] <wildwind> malucious: check system logs for any errors at boot time. esp. kern.log and Xorg.0.log
[15:42] <goblin> Hi there, I have a weird Problem with my Ubuntu 13.04, it seems to forget my password
[15:43] <wildwind> emr: try copy to /dev/null, same error or another?
[15:43] <goblin> yesterday for the first time, I did reset it to the one I always use in recovery mode
[15:43] <BitNova> my ubuntu 13.04 keeps trying to report a problem every few hours.
[15:43] <goblin> now I'm logged in and wanted to install some software, but my password is not accepted again
[15:44] <wildwind> !lostpassword | goblin
[15:44] <goblin> wildwind: I'm shure I've not forgotten it
[15:45] <goblin> It worked fine the whole day
[15:45] <wildwind> goblin: nevertheless check the links
[15:45] <goblin> since I did reset it yesterday, because at first I too thought I was too stupid to enter the correct password
[15:46] <emr> wildwind, its same error
[15:46] <wildwind> goblin: double-check caps lock and keyboard layout and accident spaces before/after (at reset time too!)
[15:47] <goblin> I typed it clearly into the username field to touble check, I'm really shure about this
[15:47] <goblin> s/touble/double/
[15:48] <goblin> And I don't want to boot into recovery mode every day to reset my own password
[15:48] <wildwind> goblin: ok then reset it again
[15:48] <Frogg_> Hello
[15:49] <wildwind> emr: what the file is? can you open it normal way?
[15:49] <Frogg_> I have an issue with Ubuntu 13.04, and was wondering if I could get a solution
[15:50] <wildwind> !ask | Frogg_
[15:51] <Frogg_> I installed 13.04 alongside windows 7. I got them set so they both boot properly. First thing i did was update to kernel 3.9.0, but i have an issue. I'll close my laptop, it goes into sleep mode, but wont wake when i open it
[15:51] <minixvm> Frogg_: 3.9 isn't in the repos, why did you install it?
[15:52] <emr> wildwind, syslinux bootloader, install file extlinux
[15:52] <Frogg_> Before installing it, i had the issue of the laptop not even going into sleep mode when closing the lid.
[15:54] <wildwind> emr: guess it's owned by root. copy with sudo
[15:55] <wildwind> emr: ls -l yourfile, what it shows
[15:55] <emr> nope wildwind its owned by user
[15:55] <emr> :(
[15:55] <samgabbay> guys when i install the fglrx i cant see the unity launcher at all
[15:55] <wildwind> Frogg_: try rolling back to even earlier kernel
[15:55] <samgabbay> !register
[15:56] <Frogg_> How do i do that? and what kernel?
[15:57] <emr> wildwind, thank you very much
[16:00] <wildwind> Frogg_: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
[16:00] <mapps> yo
[16:00] <mapps> can someone lend a hand please
[16:00] <minixvm> mapps: depends what with
[16:00] <mapps> :D
[16:00] <mapps> well
[16:01] <mapps> having trouble with my wlan0 when setting it to get a static IP
[16:01] <wildwind> which kernel will work for you i can't say. google your model on forums or experiment
[16:01] <mapps> when I set a static IP in /etc/network/interfaces i set address/gateway/broadcast/dns and wpa-ssid wpoa-psk and it connects BUT i cant reach ANY non LAN ips
[16:01] <mapps> so
[16:01] <mapps> I can ping <IP_ADDRESS> (my netbook) cant pings to google will fail and even pining the router fails
[16:01] <watussi> bonjour
[16:02] <bekks> mapps: Just revert your changes ad use the network manager to set a static IP.
[16:02] <mapps> I've checked resolv.conf ifconfig -a and cant see what I've done wrong as it is connected but just not fully working
[16:02] <watussi> do you know soft I can use to do this diagram : http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Http-headers-status.gif ?
[16:02] <wildwind> mapps: what network/ap you connect to?
[16:02] <mapps> bekks but why? shouldn't i be able to via interfaces - and i cant using ubjntu server no GUI
[16:02] <mapps> conecting to my router o2wirelessCB2607 which I put as the wpa-ssid
[16:02] <mapps> and in iwconfig it shows assciated o2wirelesscb2607
[16:03] <mapps> and i can ping my netbook which is connected to same router
[16:03] <minixvm> !resolvconf | mapps
[16:03] <mapps> yep checked that
[16:04] <mapps> if i change nterfaces to auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp then it gets an IP via DHCP rom the router and everything works fine - and ive checked iwconfig/ifconfig after and i cant see how thats diff to what I'm putting manually in interfaces
[16:04] <wildwind> mapps: check router config. maybe your ip not in range allowed to internet
[16:05] <mapps> yea ive tried changing IPs and everything but here#'s the weiurd thing as I say I can poing <IP_ADDRESS> my netbook but pings to <IP_ADDRESS> (router) fail?!?!
[16:05] <wildwind> watussi: Inkscape, Dia etc.
[16:06] <mapps> very annoying
[16:06] <mapps> :(
[16:06] <mapps> wanted to have a static IP
[16:06] <nezzario> Is there a general "ubuntu as a gateway" tutorial somewhere?
[16:06] <nezzario> I'm really stumped here... I have ubuntu connected to the net over wlan0 (usb) fine
[16:06] <wildwind> !routing | nezzario
[16:07] <wildwind> !router | nezzario
[16:07] <minixvm> !brain | wildwind

[16:07] <wildwind> minixvm: bad luck :(
[16:08] <malucious> My lightdm fails to load on startup, but loads after doing a lightdm restart.  Any ideas?
[16:08] <mapp> damn net
[16:08] <nezzario> hmm, i'll see if this script helps
[16:08] <mapp> so sorry does anyone have a clue what else i should look at
[16:08] <wildwind> mapps: better config persistent IP on router
[16:09] <watussi> wildwind: thank you !
[16:09] <samgabbay> **I have a AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250 and when i install the fglrx and   i reboot it wont show the whole unity desktop like no launcher and no upper bar,
[16:09] <samgabbay> i have ubuntu 13.04 and its like fresh and brand new and its fully up to date.
[16:09] <AnonAMouse> daftykins So after you updated the BIOS version to F11 you could boot ubuntu via disc? I may just try get a cheap SATA DVD drive.
[16:09] <wildwind> mapp: you better config persistent IP on router
[16:09] <samgabbay> I have a AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250 and when i install the fglrx and   i reboot it wont show the whole unity desktop like no launcher and no upper bar,
[16:09] <samgabbay> i have ubuntu 13.04 and its like fresh and brand new and its fully up to date.
[16:09] <samgabbay> please assist me
[16:09] <lacrymology> I had a launcher in what I think is the unity bar, but now it's gone. I've got the .desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications, but I can't make it stick to the launchers bar
[16:09] <nezzario> it was just odd, I have it setup as (internet) <-> remote ap <-wlan0-> ubuntu <-eth0-> dd-wrt <-> 2 clients .. dd-wrt could ping outside world but not the clients
[16:10] <nezzario> so really not sure if it's even an ubuntu or dd-wrt config issue ..
[16:10] <wildwind> !patience | samgabbay
[16:10] <daftykins> AnonAMouse: it just always helps to run the latest BIOS when you get booting issues. did you find out what version you have?
[16:10] <bekks> nezzario: Most likely a routing issue.
[16:10] <lacrymology> I don't seem to have a ~/.gconf/desktop/unity directory. I'm not even sure I'm using unity, but I think I am
[16:11] <AnonAMouse> daftykins I checked it said I have version F11
[16:11] <daftykins> AnonAMouse: oh right :/
[16:11] <mapp> wildwind,  on router? can i do that
[16:11] <nezzario> i setup masequerading (i can never spell that) similar to what this tutorial said but i'll tinker with it some more and harass google before harassing irc further i suppose
[16:11] <wildwind> yes in dhcp settings
[16:11] <daftykins> AnonAMouse: i can't think what's stopping your system booting then. look for some 'boot override' options that list your USB device inside the BIOS
[16:11] <mapp> oh
[16:11] <mapp> thanks sir
[16:12] <bekks> mapp: "static dhcp lease".
[16:12] <mapp> didnt know i cou;ld do statiuc dhcp

[16:17] <daftykins> pero_p: ask in a programming/bash channel maybe
[16:17] <minixvm> pero_p: perhaps #bash could help better

[16:33] <ChrisHPHPHP> the package is not available,  how can i add it to my repos?
[16:33] <minixvm> ChrisHPHPHP: then you have a network problem
[16:34] <ChrisHPHPHP> hmm.
[16:34] <ChrisHPHPHP> sigh.. i think it's about time i move to debian,
[16:34] <minixvm> ChrisHPHPHP: can you pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update

[16:37] <ChrisHPHPHP> i'm right in the middle of this big thing,  and now im screwed,
[16:37] <jkjknjnj> hello
[16:38] <minixvm> ChrisHPHPHP: why on earth are you using so many ppas?
[16:38] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: pastebin.com/ecWszWKn
[16:39] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: there's a problem with your current dns server
[16:41] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Other machines on my network are using the same server and are fine.
[16:42] <dxtr> Hey everybody :)
[16:42] <wildwind> is it your isp's server?
[16:42] <squaregoldfish> Yes
[16:42] <dxtr> i have a probelm if you don't mind :)
[16:42] <wildwind> dxtr: go on
[16:43] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: tracepath it
[16:43] <i3luefire> ok. i am still trying to get hdmi audio to work. but i still cannot. i am running an intel celeron g1610 and am using the built in gfx. i cant seem to find any info on this setup.
[16:43] <dxtr> The UbuntuOne indicator is not showing off on xfce , but it works just fine on UNITY
[16:44] <maui> i need a programme for hover/instant transaltion
[16:44] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: OK on both machines.
[16:46] <squaregoldfish> Same path followed (not surprisingly)
[16:46] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: same line-by-line?
[16:47] <squaregoldfish> Hostnames aren't resolved in the broken machine, but the IP addresses match
[16:47] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: then something prevents dns packets reaching it from that one machine. firewall maybe
[16:48] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: you can temporary use OpenDNS server (in my command above)
[16:49] <dxtr> WildWind: Can u please help me
[16:49] <ChrisHPHPHP> hmmm
[16:49] <linuxthefish> if i need a server with GUI/VNC access, would Ubuntu server with GUI, or Ubuntu Desktop be better?
[16:49] <ChrisHPHPHP> my problem lies deeper,
[16:49] <wildwind> maui: have you checked goldendict as i suggested?
[16:49] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: but dig works?!
[16:49] <ChrisHPHPHP> apt-get install ubuntu-minimal runs fine...but im trying to run it inside...
[16:49] <maui> i didnt realize you already said about ths, sorry
[16:49] <maui> will do now
[16:49] <ChrisHPHPHP> schroot -c raring_i386 -u root
[16:50] <ChrisHPHPHP> then running apt-get install ubuntu-minimal   .. will not work
[16:51] <secret_ninja> k
[16:51] <jhutchins_wk> ChrisHPHPHP: So maybe ubuntu-minimal isn't a valid package.
[16:51] <ChrisHPHPHP> im trying to follow this
[16:51] <ChrisHPHPHP> http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit
[16:51] <jhutchins_wk> ChrisHPHPHP: WHat makes you think it should work?
[16:51] <minixvm> !info ubuntu-minimal | jhutchins_wk
[16:52] <ChrisHPHPHP> i don't know.  I'm just trying to follow that guide,
[16:52] <minixvm> ChrisHPHPHP: i'm running wine on 64bit just fine, i didn't have to follow a guide (wine is in the repos)
[16:52] <ChrisHPHPHP> i need it to be 32 bi,
[16:53] <ChrisHPHPHP> bit *
[16:53] <jhutchins_wk> ChrisHPHPHP: I see several errors in those instructions, but why not just install wine?
[16:53] <ChrisHPHPHP> i cannot install certain packages from winetricks,  because it picks up architexture as 64 bit
[16:54] <wildwind> dxtr: check http://xflinux.blogspot.com/2011/01/get-ubuntu-like-indicator-applets-and.html
[16:54] <dxtr> wildwind: thnx i will check it out
[16:55] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Changed my connection to use OpenDNS - same result.
[16:55] <minixvm> ChrisHPHPHP: if you are running 64bit ubuntu then your architecture is always going to be 64bit
[16:55] <jhutchins_wk> What do you get when you try to install it?  I suspect you are not in the correct part of your chroot tree.
[16:55] <morfheus> !list
[16:56] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: I suspect something wrong in network manager - I reinstalled it. Will try a purge.
[16:57] <ChrisHPHPHP> nevermind
[16:57] <dxtr> wildwind: it's already installed
[16:58] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: does dig work with your server too?
[16:58] <dxtr> wildwind: i can't find ubuntuOne indicator anywhere
[16:58] <wildwind> linuxthefish: with ubuntu server you have to setup gui. with desktop, you have to setup security, remove unnecessary drivers and apps for stability. choose what is easier for you
[16:58] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Yes. It's very weird..,
[16:59] <linuxthefish> hmm, thanks
[16:59] <Hurior> WTH.
[16:59] <ChrisHPHPHP> wine creates a 64 bit directory, when installing things  with winetricks. like ie8,  etc etc,  it cannot because the wine dir is 64 bit,
[16:59] <ChrisHPHPHP> i need to create 32 bit wine,  i've done it before,
[17:00] <minixvm> !info wine:i386 | ChrisHPHPHP
[17:00] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Any lookup fails instantly - I don't think it's hitting the network at all.
[17:01] <ChrisHPHPHP> ouchh.
[17:01] <eoo> hello?
[17:01] <jhutchins_wk> ChrisHPHPHP: Perhaps your efforts would be better directed in finding OS software that does what you need.
[17:01] <ChrisHPHPHP> there is still a way to do it,  not by installing wine for i386,   but i can change the winearch environment to 32,
[17:02] <eoo> chris, what are you trying to do?
[17:02] <ChrisHPHPHP> it does what i need, i've done it before like i said
[17:02] <ChrisHPHPHP> I'll be back later after i undo this mess i've created
[17:02] <i3luefire> anyone? know how to fix the hdmi audio problem when using integrated intel gfx
[17:04] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: have you local server dns installed, such as dnsmasq?

[17:06] <jaba_> who can help with ubuntu 13.04 + cinnamon 1.8 font issue
[17:06] <eoo> jaba
[17:06] <eoo> how can i help
[17:07] <noiro> Gah, if 12.04 is the LTS, why is the fw-cutter bug still active?
[17:07] <eoo> what is the font issue
[17:07] <jaba_> eoo: i installed ubuntu 13.04 + cinnamon, but fonts in cinnamon menu looks bad
[17:07] <eoo> are you using the default cinnamon theme?
[17:07] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: ok show dig output again, with full command
[17:08] <samgabbay> hi i accidentally installed a folder in my home folder but now i cant move it out it says permisson denied  how do i move it out
[17:08] <jaba_> eoo: in some menu text few characters are like wordy
[17:08] <noiro> I'd think Ubuntu bugs that get you as far on startup as a blackscreen should tend to take priority..
[17:08] <eoo> i had that problem
[17:08] <jaba_> eoo: i have not changed anything, just installed
[17:08] <eoo> try changing the fonts in cinnamon settings to sans
[17:08] <jaba_> eoo: i have feeling that maybe there is some font package missing
[17:09] <eoo>  try changing the fonts in cinnamon settings to sans
[17:09] <samgabbay> hi i accidentally installed a folder in my home folder but now i cant move it out it says permisson denied  how do i move it out
[17:09] <eoo> <samgabbay type sudo rm filename
[17:09] <wildwind> samgabbay: what ls-l yourfolder says?
[17:10] <TheUsD> hello
[17:10] <eoo> hi
[17:10] <TheUsD> Very new ubuntu user here and need a little assistance
[17:10] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Using my ISP's DNS: pastebin.com/FSaCeaKj
[17:10] <kristenbb> hi, how can I access my encrypted home from a live cd ? I tried mounting the system (and binding proc, sys and dev) and then chrooting into it, but when I 'su kristenbb', it says: 'open: permission denied. error locking counter'. How to avoid that ?
[17:10] <eoo> how can we help TheUsD
[17:11] <TheUsD> I just installed the server edition and added on the GUI interface and would like to set a public static IP
[17:11] <TheUsD> I have gone in and added a manual connection but I cant seem to get it to work.
[17:12] <minixvm> !resolvconf | TheUsD
[17:12] <jaba_> eoo: restart also is needed?
[17:12] <noiro> setting a static IP would be useful for me to know as well, but isn't that something you'd do from the router and say "MAC address: xx:xx gets IP: x
[17:12] <eoo> TheUsD: does gnome-network-manager work
[17:12] <bekks> noiro: You can either set it on the DHCP server or you set it statically on the host.
[17:12] <eoo> jaba_: I don't think so
[17:12] <TheUsD> I am setting a public static, does that matter?
[17:12] <jaba_> eoo: then it`s not working
[17:13] <eoo> hmm
[17:13] <eoo> u might have a missing font package or something
[17:14] <jaba_> thats the think o i guess, because this font thing don`t affect anything
[17:14] <TheUsD> Eoo, I have tried the manager by using the command nm-networking-editor
[17:14] <jaba_> how to reset back fonts?
[17:14] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: ok, now without @<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:14] <noiro> anyone know the code in Xchat for 12-hour timestamps instead of marine time?
[17:15] <TheUsD> but it doesnt not seem to work. Also, when I go to the networking icon at the top of ubuntu and click on connection info it says "no valid active connections found!" when even though I have set a static its recieving connection via DHCP from my router.
[17:16] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: pastebin.com/jr7LiT6n
[17:16] <eoo> jaba_: try searching for fonts in synaptic
[17:16] <jaba_> eoo: for which ones?
[17:17] <eoo> install ubuntu fonts
[17:17] <eoo> jaba_: what does this give you: apt-cache search fonts | grep ubuntu
[17:18] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[17:18] <TheUsD> I also have one more issue that I cant seem to resolve
[17:20] <TheUsD> since I am new to ubuntu, I went ahead and set all the passwords as the same password so that I wouldn't have to remember what was what until I was comfortable. When trying to access a program it asks for the admin password (there is only one user on the server) I tried entering that password but no luck, any clue?
[17:20] <TheUsD> I even tried creating a second user and giving him admin rights but that would not work either.
[17:21] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: From both machines: pastebin.com/ifZ2HLUE ... Should I ruin resolvconf somehow?
[17:22] <thegladiator> I get problems with VGA
[17:22] <bekks> TheUsD: The "admin password" is just the password of the user being asked.
[17:22] <thegladiator> i mean I have selected 1300 X 7** but some apps misbehave
[17:22] <thegladiator> how to fix ?
[17:23] <g0th_> hi
[17:23] <bekks> thegladiator: Call them into the office and talk to them seriously.
[17:23] <bekks> thegladiator: What do they do?
[17:23] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: NM should run it. compare its settings on both machines closely
[17:23] <azend> http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/1030/jblive/
[17:23] <thegladiator> Suppose I do fullscreen (PDF app) it doesnt do correctly
[17:23] <thegladiator> things like that
[17:23] <g0th> flash in chromium and firefox is extremely choppy/laggy
[17:23] <g0th> how can I fix that?
[17:24] <bekks> thegladiator: Define "doesnt do correctly" please when talking about fullscreen. Or even create a screenshot.
[17:24] <thegladiator> Ok let me
[17:25] <TheUsD> Bekks: then what would be the "admin password" when trying to run a program I installed?
[17:25] <Egzas> Hello All. I Suggest you to welcome at my new cs server! It's Gather style. My Skype is: Fuck_oN
[17:25] <bekks> TheUsD: There is no "admin password" at all.
[17:25] <bekks> TheUsD: All you do when installing is specifying the users password.
[17:25] <Egzas> Ip Adress: <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:27] <TheUsD> bekks: I'm kind of confused then. What password is it asking for?
[17:27] <bekks> TheUsD: Your user password.
[17:27] <minixvm> TheUsD: your users password (as he told you several times)
[17:28] <thegladiator> its most with poppler based pdf
[17:28] <bekks> thegladiator: Whats "popple based pdf"?
[17:28] <thegladiator> poppler library based pdf apps
[17:28] <g0th> anyone? is there a magic recipe to get flash working again in ubuntu?
[17:29] <thegladiator> XPDF , epdfview , apvlv etc
[17:29] <TheUsD> its not when I am installing the software, its after its installed it asks for an admin password
[17:30] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Can't see anything.
[17:31] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Note that the working machine is 12.04 (vs 13.04), so it may be slightly different anyway.
[17:32] <bekks> TheUsD: There is no admin password. All there is, is your user password. You have to enter it when doing "administrative tasks".
[17:32] <i3luefire_> hdmi audio output fix? does anyone know how to fix? i am running 12.04.2 and intel integrated gfx
[17:33] <thegladiator> does ubuntu have official adobe reader?
[17:33] <minixvm> thegladiator: in the partner repo i think
[17:34] <thegladiator> ok and the name is ?
[17:34] <TheUsD> bekks, I understand what you are saying, I just cant figure out why its not working. I made sure I used one password (for everything) on this server until I was comfortable with it.
[17:34] <thegladiator> i see acroread and acroread-bin
[17:34] <bekks> TheUsD: And there is no other "hidden" admin password. There simply isnt. :)
[17:35] <TheUsD> so shouldn't it not be the same pass as I log in or when I do a sudo command?
[17:35] <i3luefire_> am i on ignore? or is there just no fix to the hdmi audio problem?
[17:35] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Solved it! Ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf, said yes to everything, and rebooted. All fine!
[17:35] <binBlob> Hi, does s1 know where I can find a description of systemds wantedBy targets ?
[17:36] <minixvm> i3luefire_: people can see you but they won't answer if they don't know
[17:36] <i3luefire_> minixvm, ty. i guess i didnt think of that
[17:36] <TheUsD> does it matter what program it is I'm running?
[17:37] <TheUsD> the program is GSmartControl
[17:38] <sage79> hello. i buy a sata hard disk. but the bios sees it as ide. in bios it is set ahci mode. why?
[17:38] <squaregoldfish> wildwind: Thanks for the suggestions - I'd never have got there otherwise!
[17:38] <FrozenFire> My understanding is that the "Backup" application in Ubuntu uses duplicity. Is there any way to verify the backup I've made is viable for restore, without actually restoring it?
[17:39] <mrguser> mi all
[17:39] <FrozenFire> There is a duplicity verify command, but I can't seem to make it use the same configuration as was used to perform the backup
[17:40] <mrguser> Hack ubuntu server thrg nokia E63
[17:40] <minixvm> sage79: sounds like an issue for ##hardware
[17:41] <Phase> It's been awhile since I've had to mess with ssh keys. Should I do RSA or DSA, and how many bits? (default is 1024) (PuTTYgen)
[17:41] <TheUsD> is the root user the same as a user with admin rights?
[17:41] <FrozenFire> TheUsD, No, root has a more special usage than simply a sudoer
[17:41] <iceroot> FrozenFire: i would suggest to restore the backup everything else is not a 100% proof
[17:41] <iceroot> TheUsD: yes
[17:41] <TheUsD> how would I find the root user password?
[17:42] <k1l_> !root | TheUsD
[17:42] <iceroot> TheUsD: when you execute something with sudo it will have the same privileges as root itself
[17:42] <FrozenFire> iceroot, Well, I've created secondary backups of very important files. I'm just hoping to get a good verification that the backup is viable.
[17:42] <binBlob> Pase: default on the linux tool that makes ssh key (forget the name) is 2048 bit long
[17:42] <Phase> binBlob: thanks
[17:42] <iceroot> Phase: rsa
[17:42] <TheUsD> lol thanks ubottu...
[17:43] <Phase> iceroot: would you be able to answer why rsa vs dsa?
[17:43] <iceroot> Phase: rsa is still safe
[17:43] <FrozenFire> PhantomGamers, http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/5096/rsa-vs-dsa-for-ssh-authentication-keys
[17:43] <FrozenFire> Err, Phase ^
[17:43] <FrozenFire> Mis-tab
[17:43] <Phase> thanks
[17:43] <PhantomGamers> lol
[17:43] <PhantomGamers> i was like lolwhat
[17:43] <wildwind> squaregoldfish: you're welcome. i didn't upgrade to 13.04 yet
[17:43] <Phase> lol
[17:43] <TheUsD> Ubottu, so would it be more ideal to to terminal the program I want to run rather than going through the GUI?
[17:44] <binBlob> what did replace systemctl ?? Kubuntu does not have one
[17:44] <FrozenFire> Perhaps a better formulation would be, does anyone know where the Backup utility stores its configuration for duplicity?
[17:44] <FrozenFire> Since it's evidently just a wrapper around it
[17:46] <harris> hello
[17:46] <FrozenFire> Hrmmm, seems it's wrappers around wrappers
[17:46] <FrozenFire> Backup utility is deja-dup?
[17:46] <FrozenFire> Around duplicity?
[17:46] <wildwind> FrozenFire: AFAIR the wrapper is called deja-dup. it may help in finding configs
[17:47] <wildwind> FrozenFire: yes
[17:47] <FrozenFire> Aha, http://askubuntu.com/questions/145698/where-does-deja-dup-keep-its-config-files
[17:49] <wildwind> FrozenFire: as to the original question "Is there any way to verify the backup I've made is viable for restore, without actually restoring it?". to be honest, there's no other way to be 100% sure
[17:50] <FrozenFire> Yeah, I'm familiar with backup procedures. I'm actually a sysadmin. Just surprised that I can't verify my personal desktop backups. :P
[17:50] <FrozenFire> Apparently newer versions of deja-dup do integrity checks
[17:50] <FrozenFire> Which, funny enough, is why I'm backing up. So I can update to a newer version of Ubuntu
[17:50] <binBlob> I want to run a application as a daemon therefor I read this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PyLoad#Daemon but I don't seem to have rc.d and systemctl. What should I do ?
[17:51] <iceroot> FrozenFire: when you want to verify something, use the tool which was creating the backup and not the backend
[17:51] <FrozenFire> Welp, guess I'll just rely on my secondary backups in case something seriously breaks
[17:51] <iceroot> FrozenFire: or use the backend directly, but dont mix them to verfiry something
[17:51] <FrozenFire> iceroot, Yeah, but that assumes that the tool has a means of doing so. :P
[17:51] <minixvm> binBlob: thats because archlinux uses systemd
[17:51] <FrozenFire> I'm still on deja-dup 22.0
[17:52] <FrozenFire> Whereas the integrity check functionality was introduced in 23.0
[17:52] <binBlob> minixvm: yes, what does ubuntu / kubuntu has for this purpose ?
[17:52] <iceroot> binBlob: upstart
[17:52] <iceroot> !upstart | binBlob
[17:52] <minixvm> !upstart | binBlob
[17:53] <binBlob> minixvm: kk thanks
[17:56] <cebor> which kernel has ubuntu 12.04.2 ?
[17:56] <T4b> I don't understand very much about how that stuff works in detail, so sorry if that is a very stupid question. Is it possible to use a server with a dynamic IP as the name server of a domain if I set up a cronjob to constantly update it's IP?
[17:56] <T4b> To my understanding it would work, but when the IP changes it would be impossible to resolve it's IP for a while, until the new address of the DNS server is starting to be used. Does that happen instantly or does it need a while to propagate like other dns stuff? Do I think in a completely wrong direction or does this make some sense?
[17:57] <minixvm> !info linux-image precise | cebor
[17:58] <T4b> (if this is possible I would use bind on a standard Ubuntu to do it, so I guess it fits this channel, or doesn't it?)
[17:58] <wildwind> T4b: please clarify how dns server is set up on clients
[18:00] <cebor> minixvm: sure, that 12.04.2 has not 3.5 ? i thought LTS releases get ne HE Stacks, doesnt it ?
[18:00] <bekks> minixvm: cebor: 12.04.2 has 3.5, 12.04.1 hasnt.
[18:00] <Phase> hm, should I use a 2 private/public key pairs (1 set for my own servers, the other for other servers that I don't technically have full authority on)? Whats the best practice for multiple keys?
[18:01] <cebor> ok and 12.04.3 will get raring kernel ?
[18:01] <bekks> Phase: Thats best practice :)
[18:01] <Phase> bekks: :) ty
[18:01] <bekks> cebor: Not necessarily.
[18:01] <minixvm> cebor: yes, but the default that ships with 12.04 is the 3.2 kernel
[18:02] <TheUsD> bekks: I'm finding out that I'm having permission errors all over the place.
[18:02] <TheUsD> Should an admin be able to change the interfaces file?
[18:02] <cebor> minixvm: yes, but i think when i will do fresh install with the 12.04.2 image i will get 3.5 by default
[18:02] <TheUsD> any user admin that is.
[18:03] <minixvm> cebor: only one way to find out (i thought they were just made available in the repos, not shipped by default)
[18:05] <jackarg> hello all! I'd like some help on this error I get when trying to run a game:   error while loading shared libraries: libfreeimage.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[18:05] <jackarg> what is libfreeimage.so.3 ?
[18:05] <T4b> wildwind: It isn't set up on any clients. Maybe I used wrong terms for some stuff. I own the domain t4b.me. On the domain name company's website (or via their api) I can enter the name of a dns server (and some backup secondary ones). The zone file which I edit to configure my domains is on this server. I would like to replace this server with one which I host on a home machine which has a dynamic IP.
[18:06] <TheUsD> Can someone help me, trying to edit my etc/network/interfaces file but its telling me I do not have the permission
[18:06] <TheUsD> I am logged in as an admin.
[18:06] <Guest85401> Eh, I have a similar problem, lol.
[18:06] <Phase> TheUsD: sudo nano -w /etc/network/interfaces
[18:06] <TheUsD> I have tried in terminal and just going to the file itself.
[18:06] <k1l_> TheUsD: what does "logged in as admin" mean?
[18:06] <Phase> TheUsD: Did you prepend sudo?
[18:07] <Guest85401> When I try to put a plugin into my Eclipse folder, it tells me that I don't have permission, and I do have admin rights.
[18:07] <TheUsD> Phase: I will try that.    Not sure what you mean prepend sudo (I am a two day old user)
[18:07] <TheUsD> two day old ubuntu user**
[18:07] <Phase> TheUsD: sudo is the command you use to give yourself elevated rights (aka admin rights) to make changes to that file
[18:08] <Phase> TheUsD: sudo -w /etc/network/interfaces
[18:08] <minixvm> TheUsD: are you logged in as user (as you should be) or logged in as root (very very bad idea)
[18:08] <k1l_> TheUsD: you need to write sudo in front of a command to give it root privileges
[18:08] <shaggeh> join #xquartz
[18:08] <shaggeh> ...
[18:08] <shaggeh> sorry about that
[18:08] <FloodBot1> shaggeh: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:08] <k1l_> but dont do it infront of every command. that is not the idea behind it
[18:08] <TheUsD> ohh, sorry I misunderstood what you meant by prepend, yes I did try sudo
[18:08] <Phase> O.o
[18:08] <wildwind> T4b: is it supposed to be public website? if yes, hosting dns on dynamic ip is a very bad idea
[18:09] <k1l_> TheUsD: since we dont know or see what you do. show us the exact command or the error message
[18:09] <TheUsD> this was my command I entered: sudo etc/network/interfaces     (command not found)
[18:09] <Phase> TheUsD: use my command
[18:09] <Phase> TheUsD: sudo -w /etc/network/interfaces
[18:09] <k1l_> TheUsD: there is no command.
[18:09] <Phase> TheUsD: Note the differences there
[18:09] <TheUsD> so then I tried, /etc/network/interfaces: permission denied
[18:09] <Phase> fail..
[18:09] <Phase> nano *
[18:09] <Phase> TheUsD: sudo nano -w /etc/network/interfaces
[18:09] <Phase> there
[18:09] <k1l_> TheUsD: you only said "superrights this-place"
[18:09] <FloodBot1> Phase: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:10] <T4b> wildwind: Well, more or less public. Mainly for me, but possibly for a few other people too and public in the sense that it should be accessible from everywhere.
[18:10] <Guest85401> When I try to put a plugin into my Eclipse folder, it tells me that I don't have permission, and I do have admin rights.
[18:10] <T4b> wildwind: Bad idea from a security standpoint of view or from a functional one?
[18:11] <TheUsD> so you're saying use sudo nano /etc/networking/interfaces   ?
[18:11] <Phase> TheUsD: yes
[18:11] <binBlob> Guest85401: that means that you dont have the rights to write into the eclipse folder
[18:11] <TheUsD> Thank you Phase, I will try that
[18:11] <T4b> wildwind: Because it just occured to me that the next person getting my IP would probably be able to change my dns records for a while, is that why it's a bad idea?
[18:12] <samgabbay> hi im trying to change the permisson of a folder and everytime i do it as root it changes back to what it had before what do i do
[18:12] <Guest85401> Well, of course. =P How would I change it to where I do have access?
[18:12] <binBlob> Guest85401: eclipse plugins should be installed into your workspace folder
[18:12] <Phase> TheUsD: 'sudo' gives you elevated rights, 'nano' is the text editor, the last bit is the path to the file you want to edit
[18:12] <bekks> samgabbay: Which folder?
[18:12] <samgabbay> its called spiral on the home folder its a game
[18:12] <TheUsD> correct, I understood the sudo and the file path, didnt know about nano. Thanks again.
[18:12] <Guest85401> binBlob, my problem is, when I try to drag and drop the plugin into the plugins folder, it just tells me that I do not have permission.
[18:12] <TheUsD> I've been spoiled by GUI's and forgot about commands.
[18:12] <jackarg> does no one here know how to fix the: "libfreeimage.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"  problem?
[18:12] <wildwind> T4b: from functional one, not sure about sec, maybe too.
[18:13] <TheUsD> last time i used commands is when I was 8 and using windows 3.11, lol
[18:13] <samgabbay> @bekks like i do it with gnautls or whatever and it keeps changing back is it possible to change it thru terminal?
[18:13] <binBlob> Guest85401: if you want every user to have this plugin you can move the volder via the mv command or if you dont like the terminal use sudo +yourfilemanager ... but watch out you can break EVERYTHING in sudo
[18:14] <bekks> samgabbay: You want to do what? Please describe your problem, not your solution approaches only :)
[18:14] <minixvm> !gksudo | binBlob
[18:14] <Phase> TheUsD: perhaps sudo gedit (or whichever GUI editor you have) -- I haven't used a linux desktop in quite awhile, so I don't even know if gedit is the default anymore.
[18:14] <wildwind> T4b: maybe you better rely on dyndns or similar service. it's optimized for fast change propagation and reg company's infrastructure probably not
[18:14] <bekks> Phase: gksudo for graphical applications.
[18:14] <Phase> bekks: ah
[18:15] <binBlob> minixvm: hmm k never had a problem with that, tanks again :)
[18:15] <samgabbay> @beeks change the permissons to read and write for all users cause its locked to root all the time
[18:15] <Guest85401> binBlob, I am a complete noob when it comes to ubunutu, lol. If it isn't too much of a hassle, what code would it be to move the folder?
[18:16] <binBlob> Guest85401: sudo mv source dest
[18:17] <T4b> wildwind: So it's a problem of propagation speeds? I would be okay with that, I've had the same IP for at least a year, probably rather two, the reason I still want dyndns is just that it's not /guaranteed/ to stay the same.
[18:19] <T4b> (really strange, btw. My ISP charges a whole lot of money if you want to have a static IP for sure, so I would expect them to have an interest in changing the IPs of their other customers now and again)
[18:20] <daftykins> T4b: dyndns stopped being free :( the cheap gits
[18:20] <TheUsD> is this how a static IP layout should look?
[18:20] <TheUsD> ohh crap, didnt mean to hit enter...
[18:20] <daftykins> TheUsD: i hope you're gonna use pastebin
[18:20] <daftykins> :D
[18:21] <T4b> daftykins: I know, that's another reason I would like to do it myself.
[18:21] <TheUsD> I'm on a separate machine, so I have to type it all in -_-
[18:22] <T4b> TheUsD: You should still use pastebin, even if you have to type it.
[18:22] <wildwind> T4b: to me in your case it's no big difference
[18:22] <daftykins> TheUsD: use a picture? SSH to that PC + copy+ paste?
[18:23] <wildwind> T4b: if money is a concern, cheap VPS for DNS (or even website) may be better
[18:23] <samgabbay> @bekks soo what do i do?
[18:24] <T4b> wildwind: Money is so much of a concern that I don't think there is a reliable VPS solution cheap enough for me. ;-)
[18:24] <TheUsD>  # the primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static adress xx.xx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. gatewat xx.xx.xxx.xxx
[18:25] <T4b> wildwind: Or do you know something for, say, $1/month?
[18:25] <wildwind> T4b: how much your isp charges for static IP?
[18:26] <T4b> wildwind: Absurdly much, I would need to look it up again, but I remember thinking that a VPS was cheaper than that.
[18:26] <wildwind> T4b: i actually use one ($12/year) for VPN
[18:26] <TheUsD> bright house networks: 60Mbps down, 6Mbps up, 5 statics, $115 a month :-/
[18:26] <myuce153> guys, i'm thinking of reinstalling windows. how hard is it to reconfigure boot?
[18:27] <wildwind> T4b: not very reliable though, i agree
[18:27] <rocks> Hello. What is a GUI way to enable pressure sensitivity for Gnome Shell 3.8 desktop in Raring?
[18:27] <minixvm> myuce153: its a matter of reinstalling grub
[18:27] <minixvm> !grub | myuce153
[18:28] <binBlob> myuce153: if you install win after linux win will kill grup and install its own loader, you will have to set up grub again
[18:28] <myuce153> is it easy to reinstall it?
[18:29] <samgabbay> guys everytime i change the permisson on root of a folder on my home folder it keeps rechanging
[18:29] <bhavesh> I have a slow startup for Ubuntu 13.04, it takes about 1 and a half minute. I did "dmesg" in terminal and found out that there is a huge gap in between two lines there

[18:30] <samgabbay> @jrib on gk whatever its called for root im trying to change a folder thats only read and write and thats only read on my reg user so i changed the settings and they keep coming back to default all the time
[18:31] <ni638629> ควย
[18:33] <TheUsD> http://pastebin.com/myD7RBFN good staticip settings?
[18:33] <jrib> samgabbay: I have no idea what "gk" means.  I also don't know what you mean by "root of a folder."  Here are some details you should provide: what folder?  What permissions are you changing and how exactly? What are the permissions before?  What are they after (i.e. do they actually change)?  When do you notice them change back?
[18:33] <bhavesh> got my answer, it was this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1061639 But I am having it in Raring
[18:33] <gpled> when i type ctrl alt t, my terminal comes up.  Is there a key combo i can press to may the window max, instead of pressing the square box in the corner, with my mouse?

[18:34] <theadmin> gpled: Ctrl+Super+Up
[18:34] <rocks> anyone know?
[18:34] <theadmin> gpled: Hold the Super key to see a list of handy keyboard shortcuts.

[18:35] <daixtr> i need some reference how to setup SDL in ubuntu 12.04 for game development...
[18:35] <daixtr> the packages listed could not be found..
[18:35] <gpled> daixtr: ati sdl?
[18:35] <samgabbay> okayu
[18:36] <menendez> hi all
[18:36] <wildwind> TheUsD: gatewat -> gateway
[18:36] <daixtr> yes
[18:37] <gpled> wildwind: good eye
[18:37] <wildwind> TheUsD: remove trailing dot in netmask
[18:38] <daixtr> i need the SDL
[18:38] <TheUsD> those were typos in the pastebin but not in the actual file. but other than that, looks good?
[18:38] <trism> daixtr: apt-cache search -n libsdl dev;
[18:39] <gpled> daixtr:  google bitcoin mining on linux.  they install the sdl's   https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer  see the readme at the bottom of the page
[18:39] <wildwind> TheUsD: yes, but why not leave it to NM
[18:40] <sifu__> why is my virtualbox exiting when i do sudo apt-get update...
[18:40] <sifu__> i got lucid32
[18:40] <gpled> daixtr: basically you just download it, and run the script to install
[18:40] <daixtr> yes.. i'm ap-get
[18:41] <trism> daixtr: those are the packages you need
[18:41] <TheUsD> Wildwind: I tried setting it in nm but it would not connect to internet, even with the settings typed in it will not connect to internet. However, if I plug it into a router it still DHCPs...
[18:41] <gpled> daixtr: different versions may have different issues, so it is good to learn how to install the different versions
[18:41] <gpled> daixtr: if apt-get will let you specify the version, then that is ok
[18:41] <minixvm> sifu__: 10.04 is only supported on server now

[18:42] <sifu__> ohh so
[18:42] <sifu__> sorry i am a bit new to it

[18:42] <sifu__> ?
[18:42] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades   <---- sifu__
[18:42] <TheUsD> wildwind: any clue why this would be?
[18:42] <sifu__> no errors no nothing...just cloese the VM
[18:43] <bazhang> sifu__, its not supported, stop asking for support...
[18:43] <wildwind> with dhcp it should connect without any manual setup. may be a router problem
[18:44] <wildwind> test with livecd if you have one
[18:45] <Tyler> h̰͚͓̭̗̖̜͚̮͍̮̤̥͕̖̦̼͍ͮ̔ͫ̏ͪͩ̍̉ͣ͘͠͠ę̱̫̫͖̯̺̤͕̝̞͔̖̤̳̩̰ͤ̀͗̏̑̄̄ͨ̀ͦ͜ͅl̖̼̱͍̥͙̖̘̗̪͔̐̔͑̆̅ͪ̏̔ͤͮ̓̓̇̀͜͢lͯ͗ͩ̿̉͐̆̿ͥͯ̂̃̉̓̚҉̸̴̬͕͉̫̲̟͔̳̩͚̻͓͢o̵̢̠͕̟͚̩̜̳̮͙͓̣̟̭̱͕ͫ̏̄ͩ͘͢
[18:45] <TheUsD> Wildwind: sorry I may not have explained that right... I edited the interfaces to the following settings that I provided the link for. But to back track, I did try to edit the nm to do a staticIP but no matter what I edit, it seems to still work via DHCP, IE I can connect it to my modem which pushes out 5 statics and it will not connect, but if I connect it to a router that has internet access, the ubuntu machine picks up a DHCP ip
[18:46] <milan> is there any more bleeding edge repositories for xubuntu ?
[18:46] <sifu__> bazhang: okey just to be clear 12.04 is not supported?
[18:47] <bazhang> sifu__, it is, check the /topic
[18:47] <TheUsD> did that make more sense?
[18:48] <wildwind> TheUsD: hmm... what is the desired configuration? with modem or router, dynamic or statis ip or any
[18:48] <sifu__> bazhang: hmm sorry if i am being idiotic but the ubuntu i have installed is 12.04 so i am bit confused why you said stop asking for support...
[18:49] <minixvm> sifu__: you said you had lucid (which is 10.04)
 i got lucid32   thats why
[18:49] <bazhang> !lucid | sifu__
[18:49] <JC_> anyone currently active
[18:50] <Laiquendi> JC_: many people :)
[18:50] <TheUsD> Wildwind: with modem via static. (which how it is configured for) but will not obtain internet access. It is however still able to pull a dhcp ip from a router and connect to the internet. :-/
[18:50] <faihasai> where is everybody?
[18:50] <jrib> JC_: you can ask your question and find out if anyone currently active knows the answer ;)
[18:50] <JC_> cool, cause the ltsp channel is quiet so hopefully I can get help here
[18:51] <JC_> okay so after a month of thrying to get edubuntu with ltsp up and running most things are okay, I should point out that https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/1076418 the info on the website is incorrect in my version of ubuntu however I solved that myself, I have a video resolution issue with my HP thin clients
[18:52] <wildwind> TheUsD: how modem is set up, bridged or routed?
[18:52] <JC_> everything was working fine until I deployed the setup at the client, now when the thin clients boot the LG monitors are unable to get a proper resolution it seems
[18:52] <TheUsD> wildwind: nevermind, it decided to change its mind...without doing a damn thing it just started working...
[18:52] <TheUsD> bridged.
[18:52] <wildwind> TheUsD: :)
[18:52] <JC_> they were tested previously and only since being moved to the location of use have they started to give this problem
[18:53] <Laiquendi> Actually I also have a question - are there security issues with using older (like... 3.2) kernels? I ask because for example grsecurity uses such, and thus I am wondering if it's not creating holes by itself...?
[18:53] <wildwind> TheUsD: make sure your static ip doesn't conflict with isp's network
[18:54] <jrib> Laiquendi: where are you getting the kernel from?  If you're not using the official repositories, then it's your responsibility to maintain it and ensure security updates are applied
[18:54] <JC_> If I edit lts.conf and put anything other than SCREEN_07=kiosk in there it throughs an error on the client side, the Xorg.7.log shows it being unable to find a resolution for the monitor (used to work fine before), but trying to set resolution or horz/vert through a Fatal Server Error, invalid argument for -config
[18:54] <Laiquendi> jrib: from the repositories, but I mean I am stuck to older kernel while using grsecurity, since it works on such only. 3.2 now.
[18:55] <jez> I am having some ruby gem issues http://pastebin.com/whxN1nsh
[18:55] <jrib> Laiquendi: read the changelogs for the new kernels that are provided then and make sure the updates don't affect your security
[18:56] <Laiquendi> jrib: hmm... I'm rather trying to discern if using older kernel is not a vulnerability by itself, which would make using grsecurity... useless...? Against-logic...
[18:56] <Laiquendi> jrib: yet it is suggested most often
[18:57] <jrib> Laiquendi: well it would depend on the security issues I imagine
[18:58] <Laiquendi> jrib: From what I see kernel updates usually change compatibilities and performance, usability etc. not the security by itself, am I right?
[18:58] <jrib> Laiquendi: not as far as I understand
[18:59] <jrib> Laiquendi: where would you expect security updates then?
[18:59] <Laiquendi> jrib: In modules, emm applications etc?
[18:59] <alocer> jrib they give package in update named security update
[19:00] <alocer> idk what is that
[19:00] <raulsh> hello

[19:05] <jrib> samgabbay: why are you reinstalling?
[19:06] <samgabbay> @jrib cuz installing the ati drivers fucked up my system
[19:06] <samgabbay> but will it delete my apps?
[19:06] <samgabbay> that i got from the ubuntu store or browser downloads
[19:06] <wildwind> samgabbay: yes it will
[19:07] <samgabbay> @wild but i didnt erase, jsut reinstall will it delete the apps still?
[19:08] <samgabbay> kt hx
[19:08] <wildwind> samgabbay: you can try remove drivers and reinstall, or use radeon

[19:10] <graftonio_> who now how upgrade the system if during intallation 12.10-13.14 power is off
[19:11] <Laiquendi> jrib: secret unveiled - older kernel hardened with grsecurity is more safe than the newest ones, since it is updated and provided with more security, to be blunt.
[19:11] <bazhang> not possible graftonio_

[19:11] <streulma> hello, my Macbook Air is using to much ram, is there a reason to switch over to Ubuntu? :)
[19:12] <Laiquendi> streulma: there always is! ;) What do youmean by "is there a reason"?
[19:12] <bazhang> !ot | streulma
[19:12] <minixvm> streulma: ram is there to be used
[19:12] <synnyster> Anyone know why F.lux indicator applet won't appear? I used this guide http://mergy.org/2013/03/getting-f-lux-going-on-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/
[19:16] <alocer> !alis
[19:18] <TheUsD> wildwind: no it wont, I've got 5 statics from my ISP, only two were currently in use. I ask these questions because I have been a ubuntu user for 2 days now, lol.
[19:21] <TheUsD> So, I'm going to ask a question I've asked in the past but word it a bit differently. maybe more intelligently,
[19:22] <TheUsD> after I installed a program called gsmartcontol I tried to access the program (via gui) and it asks me for a administrative password
[19:23] <TheUsD> I only have one user account on this ubunutu server and I've tried using that password for the program to start but it says its invalid.
[19:23] <TheUsD> any reason why it would be telling me this?
[19:25] <Laiquendi> TheUsD: do you have root password different than user password?
[19:25] <Laiquendi> Or maybe it need root account to be enabled? Just guessing this one though.
[19:25] <theadmin> TheUsD: It may be the program tries to use su for authentication which isn't something Ubuntu permits. Use "gksudo gsmartcontrol" to run it, I suppose.
[19:26] <TheUsD> when I installed the ubuntu server, I jused used the same password over and over again. told myself i would change them once I was comfortable with ubuntu server. that being said, it SHOULD be the same password as the administrative user I am logged in as, right?
[19:26] <TheUsD> how would I enable the root account?
[19:27] <TheUsD> or know if it is enabled for that matter.
[19:27] <theadmin> TheUsD: Do not. It's not something you should ever do. Instead, use "sudo application" to run "application" with root priveleges, and "gksudo application" to run graphical apps with root priveleges.
[19:27] <wildwind> TheUsD: gsmartcontol is a gui for smartctl. does smartctl work itself?
[19:28] <TheUsD> I do not know, can you give me the instructions to launch it?
[19:28] <wildwind> TheUsD:  just type it in terminal
[19:29] <TheUsD> Sorry, I am really new to ubuntu, I've been a windows user my entire life...with that exception of red hat 9 for a week when i was 16
[19:29] <wildwind> TheUsD: Ctrl+Alt+T opens a terminal
[19:30] <tado> help! i think i've messed up my libreoffice a few weeks from my thesis deadline and can't get around all the dependencies! anyone can help?
[19:30] <synnyster> Anyone know why F.lux indicator applet won't appear? I used this guide http://mergy.org/2013/03/getting-f-lux-going-on-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/
[19:30] <TheUsD> correct, typed in smartclt and it poped up with: Error: smartctl requires a device name as the final command-line argument.          seems that its working I just need to add in some extentions to tell it what to do, right?
[19:31] <wildwind> tado: does it start?
[19:33] <bekks> TheUsD: You need to pass an option to smartctl for telling it wht to do, and you need to psas a device to it, for telling it which device you want.
[19:33] <tado> wildwind: nope. it crashed on version 4.0.3, so i tried to downgrade from synaptic, but it just uninstalled the libreoffice package. then i removed ppa's from software sources and deleted the other packages, to reinstall from scratch from the normal repos, but it won't reinstall...
[19:33] <wildwind> TheUsD: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
[19:33] <tado> wildwind:this is what i have removed http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704595/
[19:33] <miguel> hi
[19:34] <miguel> I'm having network disconnection issues, how can I check if the problem is in ubuntu, in my wireless acess point, in the router or in the internet provider ?
[19:35] <TheUsD> it showed me the SMART error log: no erros
[19:35] <miguel> every couple of minutes I can't ping anything anymore, If I disconnect the wireless and reconnect I have internet access again...
[19:35] <bekks> miguel: You ISP has nothing to do with the wireless connection to your router.
[19:35] <tado> wildwind: i have an unmet dependency: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704600/ but when i try and fix that another one pops up. but i haven't removed those packages
[19:36] <wildwind> TheUsD: only that? id shoud spit a bunch of info
[19:36] <jdeniuz> miguel. seems like wireless access point problem
[19:36] <bekks> miguel: You could save the "dmesg" output before disconnecting your wifi.
[19:37] <jdeniuz> how bekks?
[19:37] <theadmin> tado: You could just apt-get install libreoffice to have all of them. If that doesn't work, try removing existing packages and reinstalling. If that doesn't work, you probably have a third-party repo enabled which is usually a bad thing for things that are already in Ubuntu.
[19:37] <bekks> jdeniuz: By typing "dmesg" in a terminal and saving the output to a file.
[19:37] <TheUsD> wildwind: it give a few lines of info, but nothing that seemed relevant.
[19:38] <wildwind> tado: try apt-get purge <that long list of packages>
[19:38] <wildwind> tado: then reinstall
[19:38] <bekks> TheUsD: Whats the output of smartctl -a /dev/sda
[19:38] <bekks> !paste | TheUsD
[19:38] <wildwind> TheUsD: did it ask you for a password?
[19:38] <miguel_> lost connection again...
[19:39] <TheUsD> wildwind: yes
[19:39] <synnyster> Anyone know why F.lux indicator applet won't appear? I used this guide http://mergy.org/2013/03/getting-f-lux-going-on-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/
[19:40] <jdeniuz> Guest36850 try dmesg till the duscinnection . bekks said that earlier
[19:40] <wildwind> TheUsD: what password you provided?
[19:40] <bekks> jdeniuz: I said something different.
[19:40] <jdeniuz> sorry
[19:40] <Casey> This is TheUsD, forgot I finally got my ubuntu server up and running. lol
[19:41] <bekks> jdeniuz: He needs to run dmesg just once, before disconnecting.
[19:41] <tado> wildwind: i have purged, but see here when i give an install command http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704616/
[19:41] <Casey> Wildwind: I used the same password as I use to log in and install programs or use sudo with.
[19:41] <tado> theadmin: i had ppa's from libreoffice, have removed them and ran sudo apt-get remove libreoffice* and now can't seem to reinstall... there are no repos with libreoffice now
[19:42] <wildwind> Casey: ok when you run gsmartcontrol it should ask you the same password. does it?
[19:43] <Casey> Wildwind: when I run it via terminal or gui?
[19:43] <wildwind> Casey: either way
[19:43] <binBlob> HI, me again. For what purpose are the tty terminals ? And why are there 7 of them ?
[19:44] <theadmin> binBlob: Dunno why 7, a tradition I guess. They are there primarily for CLI-only systems.
[19:44] <Casey> Wildwind: I have not ran it terminal but when I do it GUI it does ask for password and it says the password is incorrect. again, using same password I used for smartctl
[19:44] <bekks> binBlob: They provide you the ability of logging into a console session.
[19:44] <bekks> binBlob: And there a multiple of them, because in history, computers had multiple consoles.
[19:44] <wildwind> Casey: ok try from terminal now
[19:44] <Laiquendi> binBlob: because 7 is a lucky number ;D
[19:45] <Casey> :( what would be the terminal command for gsmartcontrol?
[19:45] <bekks> Casey: smartctl
[19:45] <binBlob> so if I am on a distro without x I am automaticly on tty1 ?
[19:46] <theadmin> binBlob: Depends on your init configuration and such
[19:46] <theadmin> binBlob: Generally yes, though.
[19:46] <bekks> binBlob: Not necessarily.
[19:46] <wildwind> Casey: gsmartcontrol :)
[19:46] <Casey> wildwind: haha thanks
[19:47] <Casey> wildwind: it popped up, however terminal came up with errors too.
[19:47] <tado> wildwind: this is the output of the original command and my first reinstall attempt http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704635/ note that synaptic had for some reason simply deleted the package libreoffice when i attempted to downgrade from 4.0.3 to 3.6
[19:47] <binBlob> well someday s1 will do a distro with unbelievable 8 ttys ! Thanks for the info.
[19:48] <bekks> binBlob: Which is done using one single command :>
[19:48] <theadmin> binBlob: No real need, there's screen, tmux and byobu.
[19:48] <binBlob> bekks: no I meant by default :)
[19:48] <wildwind> Casey: what errors
[19:48] <Casey> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704640/
[19:49] <bekks> Casey: A graphical application will not run in a terminal. And you should be using gksudo for graphical applications. And I told you to use smartctl.
[19:50] <JC_> tried troubleshooting on my own again but really not getting anywhere, I have a simple lts.conf file that works until I add X_MODE_0=1024x768
[19:50] <tado> theadmin: any ideas on why it wouldn't reinstall?
[19:51] <theadmin> tado: No not really
[19:51] <JC_> the when the thin client boots I get invalid argument in -config
[19:51] <Casey> bekks:  Sorry, I was not looking to your posts so I didnt know you were talking to me.
[19:51] <bekks> Casey: I put your name in front of my post...
[19:52] <wildwind> Casey: run it without sudo. it should pop a window asking a password as with gui
[19:52] <tado> theadmin: damn... it's as if it needed a series of dependencies that haven't been removed...
[19:52] <Casey> bekks, again, I was not looking at your posts, sorry bud.
[19:52] <maui> had to deinstall that language transltion programm
[19:52] <maui> cause i messed its config up
[19:52] <maui> so now i even forgot its name
[19:52] <theadmin> tado: Ehhhm. Did you run "sudo apt-get update" after removing third-party repos? Cause you should.
[19:52] <Casey> bekks: but thank you for helping me with my issue as well. :)
[19:52] <maui> whats the software for language translation in ubuntu?
[19:52] <bekks> Casey: Putting someones name in front of a post hilights it. Thats how IRC works.
[19:53] <tado> theadmin: ... that i did not. let me see
[19:53] <binBlob> bekks: well depends on the irc client
[19:53] <Casey> well sob, so it does, lol. I'm not an IRC daily user.
[19:53] <bekks> binBlob: Basically hilighting someone is how IRC communications work :)
[19:54] <binBlob> bekks: not in a web client ...
[19:54] <bekks> binBlob: In every client. Put a name in front, to tell the other one that you talking to him.
[19:54] <tado> theamidn: same problem
[19:54] <Casey> wildwind:  Thank you, it is not working properly
[19:54] <tado> theadmin: same problem
[19:55] <theadmin> tado: Meow >.<
[19:55] <binBlob> bekks: yes i know but in some clients ther is no highlighting
[19:55] <Casey> wildwind: will I have to do this each time I restart the server?
[19:55] <wildwind> Casey: and show us last smartctl output
[19:55] <wildwind> Casey: what
[19:56] <Casey> wildwind: I do not understand what you want me to show you.
[19:57] <wildwind> Casey: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
[19:58] <wildwind> Casey: you said there was only few lines
[19:59] <Casey> wildwind: I was incorrect about that statement: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704674/
[20:00] <wildwind> tado: aptitude show libreoffice-core
[20:01] <tado> wildwind: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5704678/
[20:01] <wildwind> Casey: ok, so smartctl works but gsmartcontrol does not
[20:03] <tado> wildwind: i might have made it. i had to run an autoremove that cleared some of the libraries giving trouble, and now it's installing again from sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[20:04] <wildwind> tado: ok
[20:04] <Casey> wildwind: No, ever since you had me go through the terminal to run gsmartcontrol, gsmartcontrol is working.
[20:04] <bitbyte> hey guys do any of you know how i would move from osx to ubuntu server
[20:05] <minixvm> !mac | bitbyte
[20:05] <Casey> wildwind: what I was saying a few posts back was that gsmartcontrol is working now. thank you. Will I have to go through terminal again to get the GUI working in the future if I restart?
[20:05] <Casey> wildwind: if infact it does not work again via GUI after a restart.
[20:06] <tado> wildwind: it installed, but it launches synaptic if i launch from icon on the unity bar. launches fine if i open via synapse
[20:06] <patr|ck> are apparmor or tomoyo used by default on Ubuntu 12.04, please?
[20:07] <tado> wildwind: removed synaptic and problem solved. thanks a lot for helping
[20:07] <wildwind> tado: apt-mark showhold
[20:07] <wildwind> tado: ok
[20:08] <wildwind> Casey: we can continue troubleshooting if you want
[20:09] <Casey> wildwind: how so? Do you believe there is more to the issue than we have covered?
[20:09] <wildwind> gui should run with password provided
[20:10] <Casey> wildwind: gui is now working with password provided
[20:10] <wildwind> ok then
[20:11] <Ari-Yang> hi, how do I open up software-sources in terminal again?
[20:11] <Casey> thats what I was asking before, if it does not work in the future, lets say after I do a restart, should I just try to access it through terminal first and then gui afterwards (thats what seemed to fix the issue)
[20:12] <Ari-Yang> nvm it's software-properties-gtk
[20:13] <wildwind> Casey: by the way, you have some reallocated sectors on your hdd, and self-test errors
[20:14] <Casey> wildwind: yes, this is an old HDD. I do not expect to keep my system on it. this is all a test to see if the ubuntu server works for my needs.
[20:15] <platzhirsch1> So I have found an option in the Wacom UI settings, but I cannot find how to execute this option on the shell. Any idea how I could look that up?
[20:16] <Casey> wildwind: last major issue I am having. there is a driver for my machine, the ATI GFX driver. It seems that everytime I install this dirver the server can no longer boot. Infact when I see the  startup info being displayed, it shows a fail for the GFX driver and I can never recover.
[20:16] <wildwind> Casey: actually you didn't fix password issue, just worked around it. test after restart
[20:16] <Casey> is the driver nesseccary for ubuntu?
[20:16] <Casey> I had to reformat the server 3 times because of this driver.
[20:17] <guntbert> patr|ck: apparmor is used
[20:17] <patr|ck> thanks
[20:17] <wildwind> Casey: not sure what driver you're talking about
[20:17] <theadmin> Casey: ...you don't have to use it if stuff works without it
[20:18] <wildwind> Casey: anyway, radeon driver would be enough on server
[20:18] <bekks> Casey: On a server, you donrt need graphics drivers at all.
[20:19] <wildwind> bekks: he/she wants server with gui management
[20:19] <Casey> ATIATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver
[20:20] <Casey> seems that evertime I install that driver, the system will no longer boot.
[20:20] <bekks> wildwind: Then he's better off with plain desktop.
[20:20] <newdude> hey guys, was curious if anybody could take a second to help a conflicted nub out
[20:20] <wildwind> Casey: use radeon (guess it's used already)
[20:20] <WeThePeople> bekks, well depending if its a game server or not
[20:20] <theadmin> newdude: That's not a question. Ask a real question.
[20:20] <bekks> WeThePeople: Even a game server has no graphics card.
[20:21] <WeThePeople> bekks, some do
[20:21] <milan> hai there, what you guys think about installing new kernel in ubuntu ?
[20:21] <bekks> WeThePeople: It servers a game, not some shiny graphics hardware output.
[20:21] <bekks> WeThePeople: Not a single one requires a graphics adapter,
[20:21] <milan> worth ?
[20:21] <wildwind> bekks: it can ge gpgpu server :)
[20:22] <wildwind> :p
[20:22] <Casey> WildWildwind: yes I have a GPGPU server.
[20:22] <Casey> (kidding)
[20:22] <Casey> and thanks, but I am a guy.
[20:22] <WeThePeople> bekks, ive seen em with a graphics card
[20:23] <milan> what you guys think about installing new kernel in ubuntu ?
[20:23] <newdude> real question -  how can I completely overwrite the contents of "/" with the contents of a tar when I only have access to the server via ssh (I saw the nc solution on the site, but would that actually work without corrupting the ssh session) ?
[20:23] <Casey> its just the onboard gfx card driver it wants, there is no seperate card installed
[20:23] <bekks> WeThePeople: Yeah, but they arent required. Thats the difference.
[20:23] <theadmin> milan: The only thing an unofficial kernel will give you is a huge headache. Use stuff in the repositories unless it's absolutely necessary to do otherwise
[20:25] <theadmin> newdude: NC? Err... I don't think Norton Commander was ever ported to UNIX, do you mean MC?
[20:25] <wildwind> theadmin: guess he means netcat
[20:25] <theadmin> Aaah
[20:25] <theadmin> wildwind: Thanks
[20:25] <giuseppe_> hi all but ubuntu has just 5 runlevel?
[20:26] <newdude> theadmin: nc, as in netcat, the solution provided help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR#SSH
[20:26] <theadmin> giuseppe_: Ubuntu provides runlevels 0, 1, 2 and 6.
[20:26] <newdude> wildwind: yessir
[20:26] <theadmin> giuseppe_: Read up on Upstart to see why.
[20:26] <giuseppe_> 0 and 1 for shutdown 6 for reboot
[20:27] <giuseppe_> and 2 and 5 for network-gui and user mode
[20:27] <giuseppe_> right?
[20:27] <bitbyte> any one know where authorised_keys for ssh is on default ubuntu server having problems finding it
[20:28] <theadmin> giuseppe_: 5 isn't there (or rather, runlevels 2, 3, 4 and 5 are all the same thing)
[20:28] <Guest75354> When nmap returns saying a port 6667 is open but filtered, does that stop IRC connections?
[20:28] <newdude> bitbyte: ~/.ssh/
[20:29]  * bitbyte keeps saying no directory
[20:29] <bekks> bitbyte: Then it doesnt exist.
[20:29] <newdude> bitbyte: probably need to great a key then, check out ssh-keygen
[20:29] <giuseppe_> theadmin, but rc.local is called after runlevel start?
[20:29] <wildwind> newdude: note that this guide is't talking about restoring a *system* over network with nc or ssh
[20:29] <newdude> great = create
[20:29] <bitbyte> I'm trying to change ssh from password to rya and odnt wanna lock myself out haha
[20:30] <theadmin> giuseppe_: No idea when rc.local is actually executed, I just know it is sometime :P
[20:30] <bekks> bitbyte: Whats "rya"?
[20:30] <Guest75354> Permissions on .ssh files need to be exact.  700 then 600
[20:30] <newdude> wildwind: Unfortunately I noticed that, I'm definitely open to suggestions on other methods haha :D
[20:31] <newdude> bitbyte: just trying to change the password for the current user you're logged into on the remote machine?
[20:31] <giuseppe_> lol theadmin but in rc.local shouldn't be the deamon that i want start at startup?
[20:31] <shad0w1e> hey, is there a way to restore default permissions on the entire filesystem? I messed up 10 different servers. thanks
[20:32] <wildwind> newdude: getting physical or KVM access is the most obvious way
[20:32] <theadmin> shad0w1e: Restore from the backup or somesuch. "Default" permissions aren't stored anywhere
[20:33] <newdude> bitebyte: if so, all you should have to do is passwd, unless you're trying to do passwordless ssh sessions, then you'd want to make a new key with a unique .pub file on the requesting machine. then on the remote machine, you just create the .ssh directory, or use ssh-keygen to automate it with plus the perks of the rest, and create an authorized_keys file in the .ssh directory
