[00:00] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, np you can try lsusb to see connected USB devices too but like you said sounds like the system thinks it's all good too... not sure what else to check about the spooling
[00:00] <modelengine> wafflej0ck, cpika: should i try to install it via the cups?
[00:01] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, really recently I've just gone with the proprietary drivers for the printers cause then it installs the scanning capabilities too and SimpleScan does a nice job... simply scanning.  But if cpika can guide you on CUPS or has alternatives you may want to try that first to avoid installing binaries with no possibility of getting source.
[00:02] <modelengine> wafflej0ck: cool, thanks
[00:03] <modelengine> wafflej0ck: cpika: I did try installing it via cups first. do you think that may have messed something up?
[00:03] <cpika> modelengine: hm, how exactly did you try to set up the printer? the folder you downloaded should include an install script...
[00:04] <modelengine> cpika: is that the .sh file?
[00:05] <cpika> modelengine: not sure what an incorrect cups setup can do. I would open a terminal and type: 'cd Downloads/uld' enter, and then 'sudo ./install.sh'
[00:05] <cpika> modelengine: of course, the printer should be plugged in and turned on
[00:05] <modelengine> cpika: ok just sec, oh, and yes it is plugged in and turned on :)
[00:05] <Marasgeon> Hey guys in opensubtitles.org the site opens and pops up a window for username and password (authentication required, The site says "Meh"), what's the matter?
[00:07] <squinty> Marasgeon:  not really on topic for this channel but that doesn't happen here.  maybe try clearing your browers cache
[00:08] <Marasgeon> squinty: thanks a lot, I'll chech it
[00:08] <modelengine> cpika: so after that it says this: http://imgur.com/7Wx33jM   what option should i choose?
[00:09] <Ace2Race> hi can anyone teach me how to use aircrack
[00:09] <squinty> Ace2Race:  not a topic for this channel
[00:09] <Ace2Race> ok
[00:09] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, since it's USB not network connected just do n, enter
[00:09] <k1l> Ace2Race: not in this channel. if you need to use it you can take the time to read the manual. we are not helping here to hack the neighbours wifi
[00:10] <Ace2Race> i understand
[00:11] <modelengine> wafflej0ck: alrighty, it installed successfully. what would be my next step (sorry, I'm a real noob here)
[00:11] <cpika> modelengine: try to print something
[00:11] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, no worries just go try and print something is the easiest way
[00:11] <cpika> modelengine: perhaps you will see the same printer several times (from the previous setup and from the new setup...) - try to choose the new one.
[00:12] <Marasgeon> squinty: It worked, thank you very much, have  a good night!
[00:12] <squinty> Marasgeon:  good to hear. :)
[00:14] <modelengine> wafflej0ck: cpika: cool alright just sec
[00:15] <cpika> wafflej0ck: would you generally prefer open-source drivers for printers, these days?
[00:16] <Ace2Race> i need direct3d driver... but how do i get it
[00:16] <modelengine> cpika: wafflej0ck: and to think you guys don't even get paid for this! Thank you soooooo much!!!
[00:16] <modelengine> It worked!!!
[00:16] <wafflej0ck> cpika, eh I just prefer open source if it's available and works, for the sake of being able to debug and just the better ethos
[00:16] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, awesome glad to hear it
[00:17] <wafflej0ck> cpika, but for printers specifically MFP stuff with scanners seems the proprietary stuff works well
[00:18] <modelengine> wafflej0ck: cpika: I really appreciate the hour long free tech support you gave me. If I tried to call someone, I would be into it for over a hundred bucks right now!
[00:18] <cpika> wafflej0ck: okay. and if they work, I find the open-source drivers more reliable, in general. and no problems with updates.
[00:18] <cpika> modelengine: glad your problem is solved. have fun with your printer.
[00:18] <modelengine> thanks both of you :)
[00:19] <wafflej0ck> modelengine, don't remind me I charge $100 an hour... :)  really though no worries, you weren't being crazy and didn't take much time to solve, glad you're up and running
[00:19] <modelengine> much appreciated
[00:22] <c3m0> just a q i'm trying to setup cryptkeeper bu can't find system tools. i'm fairly new to linux in general
[00:22] <azib> hi
[00:22] <wafflej0ck> cpika, yeah for straight printing it's fine most of the time (apparently some problem in this specific case) and hplip is open source and typically works well and it looks like canon has GPL drivers too just no support offered http://www.usa.canon.com/nw3s/CanonUSA/DownloadContents/English/0100344001EN.htm
[00:23] <wafflej0ck> cpika, I dunno about the Samsung ones though as I haven't had one of my own for a few years (had a cheap black and white laser one at some point but before I used Ubuntu daily)
[00:25] <dunno> http://www.trafficswarm.com/url.pl?method=preview&urlid=2304862
[00:27] <c3m0> If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.
[00:27] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, you have regular Ubuntu installed?
[00:28] <c3m0> yep ubuntu 14.04.x
[00:29] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, if so just hit winkey and type system and you should see matches you can also try settings that might be what you're after... I'm in Ubuntu Gnome edition so it's slightly different for the "control panel/settings" in here
[00:29] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, the winkey in Ubuntu opens the dash (button the the top left and searches across all your apps (and other stuff)
[00:29] <wafflej0ck> )
[00:30] <wafflej0ck> I use too many parenthesis sorry bad habit from programming
[00:31] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, did you install it and just trying to configure it or?
[00:32] <c3m0> I already installed it via apt-get just need to configure
[00:32] <c3m0> I need it to "attach" itself to top pannel basically
[00:32] <c3m0> *panel
[00:33] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, not sure as I haven't used it but in the comments someone says, gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"
[00:33] <wafflej0ck> they say if you run that in the command line it'll show up in the panel
[00:34] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, just installed it since it looks interesting and it shows up in the Gnome tray here but yeah looks like that command should fix it in Unity
[00:34] <c3m0> No such schema 'com.canonical.Unity.Panel' welp
[00:35] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, hmm yeah that was for 12.04 actually... I wonder if you use dconf-editor or gconf-editor if you could find the appropriate setting but really not sure
[00:36] <UnnamedUser9961> Had a quick question about networking.  I'm trying to share some folders from my trusty Ubuntu machine.  I have it partially working.  I can see windows shares in Ubuntu, but I can only see the ubuntu machine in windows - the shares are not showing up.  Any one think this could be a SMB version issue?
[00:37] <c3m0> meh ... maybe i'll install ubuntu gnome have you used both reg ubuntu and gnome ? how do they compare ?
[00:39] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, yeah I used Ubuntu from like 10.04 on pretty regularly and was using Unity till 12.04 (20-year.month) then I decided to try out KDE cause it was looking interesting and Unity changed some things I didn't like, KDE was cool but did take quite a bit in terms of resources, and was infinitely tweakable but I lost time tweaking it and messing with things, Gnome is clean and simple and more out of the way I'm really loving it bu
[00:39] <wafflej0ck> t check out some vids first
[00:40] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, you can actually just install gnome-desktop to try it out too
[00:40] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, but if you like it I would clean install to get rid of the Unity stuff since I'm on SSD and space matters, plus just like things more "pure"
[00:40] <wafflej0ck> so yeah now 14.04 Ubuntu Gnome edition
[00:41] <Guest48251> Just want to report success with Acer C720 (Just installed 14.04 LTS, works great!)
[00:41] <Guest48251> SO far, so good.
[00:41] <Bashing-om> !yay | Guest48251
[00:41] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, just took a snapshot of my desktop http://imgur.com/embntT6
[00:42] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, I have docky and conky running too for the panel and the widgets
[00:42] <c3m0> I'm actually using vmware to use linux because there's something funky going on between linux and my g1 sniper5 mobo
[00:43] <c3m0> that does look rather nice ...
[00:43] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, yeah winkey still gives you a quick search like the dash too
[00:44] <Guest48251> c3m0: So what is the funky stuff?
[00:45] <c3m0> I read a while back that gigabytes dual bios thing was screwing with ubuntu installs
[00:46] <c3m0> it's either that or my ram from an unknown manufacturer
[00:47] <c3m0> but i highly doubt ram would have anything to do with an ubuntu install :p
[00:47] <squinty> UnnamedUser9961:  might want to try  system-config-samba  (available via repo's)
[00:47] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, yeah agree I imagine chipsets on the board are all Ubuntu is talking to at the lowest level
[00:47] <Guest48251> c3m0: RAM is either good or bad or partially bad. But it can get in the way of an OS install if it is partially bad.
[00:47] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, not sure about the gigabyte dual bios issue though
[00:48] <c3m0> oh crap ... i've been using 2x4GB sticks from two different manufacturers one of which i have no idea who made them
[00:49] <wafflej0ck> yeah you can run a memtest to figure out if it's RAM pretty easily though, lots of boot CDs will do it or in Grub pretty sure you can usually kick it off there too, but if the main system doesn't have a problem like random crashes it seems unlikely still
[00:49] <c3m0> i mean 2x4GB x2 btw so 16GB total
[00:50] <Guest48251> c3m0: About ram tests:  Plan to let it run for many hours. (Sometimes the defect(s) will show in the first few minutes, sometimes not so soon.)
[00:50] <wafflej0ck> yeah takes time
[00:50] <c3m0> i will do that
[00:51] <Guest48251> c3m0: I usually do ram test at night, (while I sleep).
[00:51] <Guest48251> or when at work.
[00:52] <c3m0> brb gonna wipe this VM and try out ubuntu gnome :D
[00:53] <Jabo> ubuntu gnome is all i use
[00:54] <wafflej0ck> yeah aside from Nautilus dropping the split pane view I have very few complaints and that's a small one
[00:54] <c3m0> I like ubuntu because when i used it in the past it was really hard to learn and the troubleshouting was unreal so it really thought me a lot
[00:55] <c3m0> and then i started using windows again and i completely forgot
[00:55] <wafflej0ck> eh it's okay you'll forget Windows just as easily :P
[00:55] <Jabo> i don't like using windows now
[00:55] <Jabo> i don't like how it *feels*
[00:56] <c3m0> meh i can work with both
[00:56] <wafflej0ck> I just installed some windows VMs using this ievms script for the sake of testing sites in IE and yeah it all came back to me but it does feel horrible now (granted these were XP images for some of them)
[00:56] <c3m0> for some reason i hate the command line on windows though ...
[00:56] <Guest48251> c3m0: Yea, no need to forget anything :)
[00:56] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, it's terrible that's why :)
[00:57] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, if they fixed the CLI to be POSIX compliant and had a package manager (which I think is coming in 10) I'd consider it again
[00:57] <Guest48251> c3m0: Yea, I suppose cli on MS Windows feels a bit confining or limited after being exposed to ours
[00:57] <c3m0> i think the furthest i got in windows cmd was "ipconfig" :D
[00:57] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, the power shell and VBS scripts let you do a lot but they're still a nightmare
[00:58] <wafflej0ck> as a web dev it's so much easier to find shell scripts that do what I need to get done, and so much great open source (and many times free) software really
[01:00] <c3m0> alrighty gnome's almost installed
[01:00] <wafflej0ck> I did Windows IT work and networking for years but got a BS in CS and do web development, much of the programming community is on OS X or Linux so really you're more on your own in Windows... Visual Studio is has been and is a pretty nice tool but they're playing catch up on the JS/Web Dev side for sure, a terminal and commands to make it POSIX compliant and a shell so you could run the same .sh files in Windows too would make i
[01:00] <wafflej0ck> t more viable to me
[01:01] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, cool

[01:01] <kuchikuu> I have a fast question and I can't find the answer anywhere. Can Irssi list all the channels on the server?
[01:01] <k1l> kuchikuu: no, use alis
[01:02] <k1l> !alis | kuchikuu
[01:02] <deezed> ?
[01:02] <kuchikuu> ah, but tha'ts specyfic for the servers that use it
[01:02] <kuchikuu> what if I'm connecting to an unknown server
[01:02] <kuchikuu> and I would like to see the channel list
[01:03] <k1l> yes, it can list them but on big servers it will most likely crash the client
[01:04] <kuchikuu> oki
[01:04] <kuchikuu> Thank you~!
[01:04] <c3m0> oh crap i forgot that installing vmware on a non os drive still still stores the actual data for the vms under documents
[01:05] <wafflej0ck> c3m0, heh, sorry don't know VMWare, I use VirtualBox you can just move the files with VirtualBox and update the VM settings to point to the new location for the HDD
[01:06] <Jabo> fa
[01:06] <Jabo> fa
[01:06] <c3m0> i can prob do that but this is my first time using vmware
[01:06] <teward> wafflej0ck: ehhh, careful with that - the .vmx files like to be stupid and use hardcode paths sometimes
[01:06] <c3m0> so no idea how ... guess i'll go ask my lord and savior googol
[01:07] <teward> c3m0: i use VMware for my VM environment, are you using player or workstation
[01:07] <c3m0> workstation
[01:07] <teward> c3m0: you can remove the VM from Workstation without removing the files on disk
[01:07] <teward> then "File">"Open" and navigate to wherever you moved the data to
[01:10] <c3m0> tnx teward i'm gonna do that right now
[01:12] <Delta706> Are there any developers who might be willing to improve a program for a modest inducement?
[01:14] <c3m0> tnx for the help with that (i need dat ssd space) :D
[01:17] <Edler> Hey guys
[01:17] <kuchikuu> yo
[01:17] <Edler> i need someone to help me with a very small bash script!
[01:17] <kuchikuu> I'm a noob but maybe you can say what's going on and someone will answer:P
[01:17] <Edler> you see, i want to always call the curl command with a --interface eth0:1 argument
[01:18] <Edler> so my idea is to rename curl to curl-real
[01:18] <kuchikuu> ~/bin
[01:18] <kuchikuu> nano curl-real
[01:18] <Edler> then create a bash script called curl, that would call the real curl and append that argument to the existing ones
[01:18] <kuchikuu> write curl --interface eth:1 $1
[01:18] <kuchikuu> then chmod +x curl-real
[01:18] <Edler> $1 does the trick ?
[01:18] <Edler> writes all arguments ?
[01:18] <gr33n7007h> Edler, alias it?
[01:19] <kuchikuu> of course if you allowed the bash shell to gain access to your ~/bin
[01:19] <Edler> alright let me try it out!
[01:19] <kuchikuu> All would be $@
[01:19] <EriC^^> Edler: just alias it
[01:20] <EriC^^> alias curl0='curl --interface eth0:1'
[01:20] <EriC^^> then curl0 <arguments here>
[01:20] <Edler> alright that worked
[01:21] <kuchikuu> that's a nice idea XD surely easier than "my" way
[01:21] <kuchikuu> what worked, alias or ~/bin ?
[01:21] <Edler> but that didn't solve my real problem
[01:21] <Edler> i moved curl to curl-real
[01:21] <Edler> and wrote a script caleld curl
[01:21] <Edler> this worked
[01:21] <Edler> however my php5-curl is still failing
[01:22] <Edler> doesn't php5-curl simply call curl?
[01:22] <wafflej0ck> Edler, you can check the source
[01:22] <kuchikuu> probably  it calls curl, but not the curl-real
[01:23] <Edler> yup but it's not
[01:23] <wafflej0ck> Edler, looks like it uses libcurl so maybe doesn't call the system command just uses the library
[01:23] <Edler> i see
[01:23] <Edler> so that's the problem
[01:27] <EriC^^> Edler: can't you set the option for it to use eth0 somewhere?
[01:28] <Edler> that's what i'm trying now
[01:28] <Edler> CURLOPT_INTERFACE
[01:29] <sector_0> does anyone know how to ignore package conflicts when installing new packages?
[01:30] <sector_0> currently I have the proprietary ATI drivers installed and they're conflicting with the wine1.6 installation
[01:30] <sector_0> so I wann know if there's anyway I can ignore that conflict for now
[01:30] <daftykins> maybe ask the wine people in #winehq
[01:30] <wafflej0ck> Edler, yeah looks like you want http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php
[01:37] <allmountainpro> any advice on dual booting linux beside windows?
[01:37] <sector_0> allmountainpro, what kind of advice do you need?
[01:38] <jeffrey_f> allmountainpro: what is your desired outcome.  Please explain what os's, etc
[01:38] <squinty> allmountainpro:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI  see if anything applicable for your system
[01:38] <allmountainpro> sector_0: how to do it from live cd without breaking windows
[01:38] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: do what?
[01:39] <sector_0> allmountainpro, well it's actually not that hard
[01:39] <sector_0> when you install from a liveCD you'll be given the option to install alongside the existing OS
[01:39] <sector_0> which in this case would be windows
[01:39] <allmountainpro> sector_0: i want to install it on wifeys laptop as she has better hardware for coding, testing etc
[01:41] <jeffrey_f> allmountainpro: BUT, just in case, make sure you have a backup of your data.
[01:41] <sector_0> allmountainpro, like I said after you run the installation program, you'll be given an option to install alongside the existing windows OS
[01:41] <sector_0> after that, it's just a matter of setting up a couple thing (username, location etc)
[01:41] <sector_0> but mostly the installation script takes care of everything
[01:42] <sector_0> you don't really have to do/know much
[01:43] <runbum> I was formatting an external hard drive in ubuntu 14.10, when the process was interrupted. Now I can't get my drive to mount. It's a new drive, so there is no data I need to recover. I just need to know if there is any way to get it to mount.
[01:43] <daftykins> nuke it?
[01:44] <daftykins> why mount what isn't working?
[01:44] <runbum> I accidentally cancelled the formatting process.
[01:44] <squinty> allmountainpro:  some rascals seem to experience problems when toggling on the "download updates and priority software" during the installation.  might want to enable those after installation has finished.
[01:44] <daftykins> runbum: so do it again...?
[01:45] <jeffrey_f> runbum: System Tools>>Preferences>>disks.  Remove the partition and reinstate it and try again
[01:45] <runbum> It won't mount.
[01:45] <jeffrey_f> runbum: make sure you have the right disk
[01:45] <daftykins> runbum: mounting is the process of gaining access to a file system, you didn't format, therefore you cannot mount. i think you're using the wrong term.
[01:45] <runbum> OK, thanks. I'm kind of new to this.
[01:45] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, yeah I second everything sector_0 said and would emphasize make a full backup before you make major changes like this
[01:46] <Edler> hey guys
[01:46] <Edler> need help with something else now
[01:46] <Edler> http://pastebin.com/mFE3C96s
[01:46] <Edler> here's my network interfaces
[01:46] <Edler> when i use curl it uses eth0 by default
[01:46] <Edler> what should i do so that the eth0:1 becomes the default one
[01:46] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, if you have a large enough extra drive you can use clonezilla to duplicate the disk to image files that can be restored with the same clonezilla boot CD
[01:46] <Edler> or that the eth0:1 information/ip become the eth0
[01:47] <Edler> what would the new configuration be ?
[01:47] <Edler> can i just change auto eth0 eth0:1 to auto eth0:1 eth0 ?
[01:49] <sector_0> allmountainpro, also after the installation, after the POST screen you'd be prompted to select which OS to load
[01:49] <sector_0> and that's about it
[01:49] <wafflej0ck> Edler, no you'd want to change the iface lines since those are defining the IPs to be used for the different interfaces, don't believe the auto line will matter...
[01:50] <Edler> so in the iface lines i just swap the word eth0 with eth0:1 and vice versa ?
[01:52] <wafflej0ck> Edler, yeah believe that would do it, you may need to ifdown and ifup the interface or restart though not entirely sure how to have it reload the file, auto just tells it to fire up those interfaces when ifup -a is run
[01:52] <wafflej0ck> Edler, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man5/interfaces.5.html
[01:53] <wafflej0ck> Edler, also hope this is a machine you can login to locally cause otherwise fiddling with the network config is risky business
[01:53] <runbum> Hi again. I went to the disk utility, and it says my external hard drive is all unallocated space. There are no partitions, it seems. So how can I format it?
[01:54] <daftykins> runbum: make a partition. use gparted.
[01:54] <allmountainpro> sector_0: thanks a bunch
[01:55] <runbum> ok. Does it matter where I place the partition?
[01:55] <Guest48251> runbum: What type of partition(s) do you want to use?  And what filesystem do you want to use?
[01:55] <daftykins> runbum: what are you trying to do? why not just one from the start to the finish?
[01:55] <wafflej0ck> runbum, in the disks interface you should be able to add a new partition, then you should be able to select format... like daftykins says gparted is the trusty older one, once you have a partition made and format the partition with some filesystem then you can mount it
[01:56] <Edler> i swapped my eth0 and eth0:1 interfaces
[01:56] <Edler> but curl magically switched as well!
[01:56] <allmountainpro> sector_0: do you by chance know how to make my external hdd a working linux box? not a live session but a full versionn that will boot when i plug it in and change the bios to boot off external hdd
[01:56] <Edler> it's using eth0:1 by default
[01:56] <Edler> why? how odes curl decide which interface to choose by default ?
[01:56] <runbum> I want to use eft4. That is why I was formatting. To change from ntfs.
[01:56] <Guest48251> runbum: (If it is unallocated space, you'll first create partition(s), and them format them.)
[01:56] <gr33n7007h> !info cfdisk
[01:56] <daftykins> *ext4
[01:56] <gr33n7007h> !info cfdisk
[01:57] <daftykins> gr33n7007h: do that in PM when you're not sure :)
[01:57] <sector_0> allmountainpro, never did it, but it should be too hard
[01:57] <gr33n7007h> daftykins, ok :)
[01:57] <runbum> OK. Like I said, I'm new to this. I only want one partition.
[01:57] <sector_0> if you boot from the liveCD with the external HDD plugged in, does it show up as a drive?
[01:57] <daftykins> runbum: so what do you mean asking 'where' to put it?
[01:58] <daftykins> help us out here.
[01:58] <Guest48251> runbum: So if it is an external HD, (and you're not in need of non-destructive partitioning, just use fdisk or cfdisk to create a partition). I prefer fdisk
[01:58] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, I sort of did this to setup an external USB drive (1TB) to run clonezilla to be able to backup/restore systems without even needing a CD but it took some fiddling
[01:58] <allmountainpro> sector_0: not too sure,  let me try and ill get back on here and let you know  from live session
[01:59] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: care to elaborate?
[01:59] <runbum> Thanks Guest 48251. I'll try that, and get back to you if there are any probs.
[01:59] <Guest48251> runbum: fdisk /dev/sdf (where sdf is really the drive you are wanting to partition) sudo fdisk -l  #To list drives and their respective partitions.
[01:59] <daftykins> i already said gparted.
[01:59] <daftykins> way to confuse the newbie ;)
[02:00] <squinty> yep
[02:00] <runbum> thanks
[02:00] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: id like mine to run linux
[02:00] <Guest48251> runbum: If you want to use a GUI tool, use gparted as daftykins suggests.
[02:01] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, looks like there are some instructions here that basically say to just disable/disconnect the internal drive then do a regular install to the USB drive, but I personally did something to setup the USB drive to be formatted properly to boot (think it had to have some small partition aligned at the right sector for it to work) but perhaps these instructions work https://www.suse.com/communities/conversations/how-cr

[02:01] <liberalPIGS> runbum: Yes
[02:01] <liberalPIGS> wafflej0ck: sure
[02:03] <runbum> I need to keep it simple, so I'll try the GUI option with gparted first. Thanks again.
[02:03] <liberalPIGS> allmountainpro: disconnect it first
[02:03] <allmountainpro> liberalPIGS: disconnect which?
[02:04] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, ignore liberalPIGS
[02:04] <wafflej0ck> !ops

[02:28] <jasonjckn> when I install NVIDIA drivers, then apt-get upgrade it breaks the installation, has anyone else seen this?
[02:31] <Bashing-om> jasonjckn: IF you install from Nvidia, then it is not a part of ubuntu proper, 3rd party software that the system can not track.
[02:35] <ablest1980> how do i completely remove edubuntu for ubuntu
[02:36] <ablest1980> i uninstalled and sys still shows edubuntu
[02:36] <daftykins> "sys" ?
[02:37] <ablest1980> ubuntu
[02:37] <ablest1980> system
[02:37] <daftykins> "sys still shows edubuntu" via what?
[02:38] <ablest1980> i had ubuntu theni installed edubuntu i removed ebuntu
[02:38] <ablest1980> i had ubuntu
[02:38] <ablest1980> then i installed edubuntu over ubuntu
[02:38] <daftykins> i don't need your life history, i'm asking where you see it call it edubuntu.
[02:38] <ablest1980> i want to to complete remove edubuntu and go back to ubuntu
[02:39] <moag> hi all, please is there a safe way to download kernels from kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ ?
[02:39] <moag> like https, signatures, checksums at least? thanks
[02:39] <ablest1980> when startup  and login menu
[02:39] <belal122> hi
[02:39] <runbum> I attempted to use gparted two times, to format my external HD, and it crashed my computer both times. I'm wondering if this is because I destroyed the original ntfs filesystem when I accidentally interrupted my initial attempt to format.
[02:40] <belal122> run, but if you try to reformat it (not quick format) then that should fix it.
[02:40] <daftykins> runbum: nope, makes no sense. if you just tried, run "dmesg | tail" in a terminal and share it via http://paste.ubuntu.com
[02:42] <ablest1980> how do i restore ubuntu without losing my apps and settings?
[02:42] <daftykins> find out a list of packages in edubuntu, remove them... reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[02:42] <runbum> OK. Thanks.
[02:44] <purnanand> Hi friends happy  Xmas!!
[02:44] <jasonjckn> Bashing-om: i just tried installing nvidia current package instead and now it doesn't boot
[02:45] <daftykins> nvidia-current tends to put on nvidia-304 which is ancient
[02:45] <jasonjckn> what packgae do I use?
[02:45] <daftykins> jasonjckn: sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
[02:45] <daftykins> then try nvidia-331, depends on your card.
[02:45] <jasonjckn> can I get 343 anywhere?
[02:46] <daftykins> maybe via xorg edgers PPA, but we don't recommend PPAs
[02:46] <daftykins> don't fall into the youthful trap of thinking that updated drivers will make life hugely different, it's only if you have a very recent card you need updated
[02:46] <purnanand> I want to download ubuntu cloud on my lappy. for that what is the steps i follow?
[02:47] <Mega1> hello
[02:48] <Mega1> how do you set up a ftp shared folder in ubuntu
[02:48] <daftykins> why are you using FTP?
[02:49] <Mega1> for remote access
[02:49] <anwarhsagor> is anyone there???
[02:49] <Bashing-om> jasonjckn: Did you purge the proprietary Nvidia driver prior to installing from the software respository ? now there is a driver conflict ?
[02:49] <purnanand> yes
[02:49] <jasonjckn> Bashing-om: yes
[02:49] <anwarhsagor> hey???
[02:49] <daftykins> Mega1: install openssh-server then use SFTP, no need for unencrypted nasty tech from the 90s
[02:49] <jasonjckn> Bashing-om: i'm going to try 331
[02:50] <bubbasaures> anwarhsagor, If you have an support issue state it for help.
[02:50] <anwarhsagor> how can i install software offline???
[02:50] <daftykins> obtain the .deb's and install them
[02:50] <Mega1> daftykins: but will all users have access to same folder
[02:51] <anwarhsagor> thanks @daftykins
[02:51] <jasonjckn> purging nvidia-* still leaves my installation broken :(
[02:52] <Bashing-om> jasonjckn: might se what is suggested .. -> ubuntu-drivers list <- .

[02:57] <EriC^^> revo: it has a timestamp on the left, you might be able to see what it's taking long to do
[02:57] <squinty> jasonjckn:  might also want to rename your xorg.conf file if one exists or was used for previous kernel

[02:59] <runbum> OK. Hold on a sec...
[02:59] <rewun> danke shoen ubottu
[02:59] <EriC^^> mint: you can maybe turn it off
[03:00] <wafflej0ck> mint, depends on what you mean by disable, no need to repeat your question quickly though
[03:00] <EriC^^> mint: udisksctl --detach -b /dev/sdX
[03:00] <jasonjckn> how do I chroot into ubuntu installation from livecd and still have WIFI working inside the chroot, pinging google fails. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9632961/
[03:00] <runbum> 9632951
[03:00] <daftykins> jasonjckn: copy the /etc/resolv.conf from the host to the /mount/point/etc/resolv.conf
[03:00] <jasonjckn> daftykins: i tried that
[03:00] <jasonjckn> no luck
[03:00] <daftykins> jasonjckn: write nameservers into it directly
[03:01] <jasonjckn> kk
[03:01] <jasonjckn> good idea
[03:01] <mint> wafflej0ck: i am trying to make a portable linux hdd, instruct says i have to disable internal hdd
[03:02] <jasonjckn> daftykins: that fixed it thanks!
[03:02] <daftykins> \o/
[03:02] <daftykins> not really surprised though ;)
[03:02] <wafflej0ck> mint, yeah so you may be able to disable it in your BIOS if not honestly removing the HDD may not be a bad plan, they're typically one of the easier components to remove assuming you don't have a mac or netbook it shouldn't be too bad if you can't disable it within the BIOS settings
[03:03] <Bashing-om> jasonjckn: Single hard drive, ubuntu installed to sda1; then my way -> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt , for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done , sudo chroot /mnt . check that networking works -> ping -c3 google.com .
[03:03] <mint> wafflej0ck: eww that means opening my laptop lol. why so difficult lol
[03:03] <runbum> Not sure if the paste was helpful. It came after I did a manual shutdown, and rebooted, after my computer froze.
[03:03] <wafflej0ck> mint, hehe well what kind of laptop is it?
[03:03] <wafflej0ck> mint, with dell's it's like 2 screws
[03:03] <wafflej0ck> mint, but would check out the manual
[03:04] <wafflej0ck> mint, perhaps the BIOS allows you to just disable the drive without any physical stuff
[03:04] <wafflej0ck> mint, what's the laptop model
[03:04] <daftykins> runbum: nope you didn't even give it in click friendly form :( this is an install not a live session, yes?
[03:05] <purnanand> http://maas.ip/MAAS/  not  working?
[03:05] <runbum> How about I just paste it to the chat here?
[03:05] <soee> if i change GRUB_TIMEOUT in /etc/default/grub do i have to do anything else to have the changes applied except rebooting ?
[03:05] <daftykins> purnanand: that's not a website
[03:05] <revo> Eric: was this info for me ??? !de | rewun
[03:05] <mint> wafflej0ck: i have a toshiba c50
[03:05] <purnanand> then what?
[03:05] <daftykins> runbum: just no, never.
[03:06] <wafflej0ck> soee, yeah believe it's, sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub, google it though to verify
[03:06] <wafflej0ck> !grub > soee
[03:06] <daftykins> runbum: so run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[03:06] <runbum> OK.

[03:08] <EriC^^> revo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9632978/
[03:09] <revo> but is your duo boot or single ?
[03:09] <soee> Bashing-om, wafflej0ck thanks
[03:09] <daftykins> purnanand: the IP of your system, of course.
[03:09] <wafflej0ck> Bashing-om, ah right thx for correcting, np soee
[03:09] <revo> ive had to completly remove windows and dos because i couldnt get them to boot yestedrday...
[03:10] <revo> then i just installed xubuntu 14.10LTS today, but for some reason boot is still slow
[03:10] <daftykins> lol DOS
[03:10] <daftykins> 14.10 is _NOT_ LTS.
[03:10] <purnanand> how to check the IP of your system, of course?
[03:11] <purnanand> how to check the IP of your system, of course?
[03:11] <revo> ok,, sorry, imeant to say after installing it updated to 14.10
[03:11] <EriC^^> revo: mine's a dual boot
[03:11] <EriC^^> it doesn't matter though
[03:11] <purnanand> my os is ubuntu 14.04 lts?
[03:11] <EriC^^> up until the adding swap part we're almost at the same time
[03:11] <EriC^^> ( 14-15secs or so)
[03:12] <revo> what happens after ?
[03:12] <wafflej0ck> mint, looks like 2 screws for that as well, honestly I'd just do this, but I did IT work for a long time so I'm comfy with working with computers, but really think it's something anyone could do just be a bit careful if you decide to give it a go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_GUsBmhZfE and make sure you unplug and pull the battery first
[03:12] <WillW> Hello all, I'm trying to network share a folder, which resides on an ntfs partition mounted on boot via fstab, and I want the folder to be accessible on the network on both Ubuntu and Windows machines, but when trying to access it on the networked machine(even after checking the 3 options in nautilus), the client PC says "failed to mount windows share: permission denied". Here is the line in fstab mounting the partition: http://pasteb
[03:13] <revo> Eric: i just let ubuntu delete all my system and install OS...dint touch any partion or did any changes toinstallation
[03:13] <daftykins> WillW: your pastebin link was chopped off at the end of your message
[03:14] <WillW> daftykins http://pastebin.com/r8ci4A2i
[03:14] <daftykins> WillW: your space after "defaults," isn't wise
[03:15] <teward> WillW: no space - it messes with the fstab arguments
[03:15] <runbum> daftykins - Sorry, but was the second part of that command "sudo parted - 1" or did I misread?
[03:15] <teward> as fstab expects space-delimited arguments (but the options stuff needs to be all together in one blob without spaces)
[03:15] <daftykins> runbum: lowercase L, "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[03:16] <runbum> thx
[03:16] <allmountainpro> hey i am trying to disable internal hdd. any ideas? cant do it in bios
[03:16] <EriC^^> revo: i've no idea
[03:16] <WillW> thanks, I'll reboot and report if that wasnt the problem
[03:16] <revo> dammm...mine looks nothing like yours, you have BIOS start and them jumping to memory straight after....
[03:16] <revo> mines just all over the place
[03:16] <EriC^^> revo: do you still have the grub entry for windows there?
[03:17] <revo> no
[03:17] <revo> all deleted
[03:17] <EriC^^> type grep Windows | /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[03:17] <revo> one sec
[03:17] <EriC^^> sorry without the |
[03:17] <revo> nothing happens
[03:17] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: you might be able to turn it off
[03:18] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: udisksctl --detach -b /dev/sdX
[03:18] <revo> this is the command i wrote grep Windows /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[03:18] <EriC^^> revo: ok, i guess it was deleted then
[03:18] <revo> but no t received any reply from terminal
[03:18] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: what will that do
[03:18] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, detach the target device where /dev/sdX is the target device
[03:19] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, you'd have to do it in a live session before choosing to install
[03:19] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: it should turn it off
[03:19] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: if i do that on my ext hdd the light turns off and it disappears from sudo parted
[03:19] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: is that ubuntu specific code? and im trying to turn off the internal, not hdd
[03:20] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, just use, lsblk, to see what sdX should actually be
[03:20] <daftykins> "internal not HDD" ? wat
[03:20] <EriC^^> hmm
[03:20] <allmountainpro> i want the external hdd to stay onn, internal off
[03:20] <revo> does any one know where can i download acer Revo Nettop RL80 rescue disk from ?
[03:20] <teward> allmountainpro: you can't turn the internal drive off if the OS is on the internal
[03:20] <daftykins> allmountainpro: so use the appropriate device identifier with the command EriC^^ showed you
[03:21] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: sorry, udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX
[03:21] <revo> rekon if i can get my hands on one, then i would be able to fix my partition / boot/ os problem in one go
[03:21] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, yeah it's fine what you can do is boot to the live session, use lsblk to see what devices are there (without the USB one connected) connect the USB and do lsblk again and you should see a new entry, use the command from EriC^^ with the device name for the internal drive (the one that showed up on lsblk in both instances)
[03:22] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: makes sense, ill post link of whaat im doing so you guys can see and maybe steer me in right direction
[03:22] <purnanand> hello, hnumaan, pls give solution  how to check  the IP of  system,?
[03:22] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, alternatively look up how to just remove the internal drive, on many machines it's an easy process, if you can find a youtube walkthrough with your model you can see if it's worth doing, this is usually a serviceable part so it's easy to remove
[03:23] <runbum> OK. I was able to execute the first part of the command, and the packages loaded up just fine, but when I typed in "sudo parted - l  | pastebinit" the terminal came back with "Error: Could not stat device - - no such file or directory." Sorry for all the problems....pulling my hair out.
[03:24] <EriC^^> runbum: are you in a chroot?
[03:24] <daftykins> runbum: too many spaces. "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[03:24] <runbum> What is a chroot?
[03:24] <EriC^^> ah good catch daftykins
[03:25] <daftykins> :D
[03:25] <runbum> OK.
[03:25] <purnanand> Any buzz can give  tell me what is MAAS  UI?
[03:25] <WillW_Laptop> Ok, I'm back and the partition has mounted properly, and I can now share a folder via nautilus without root permissions. But, the folder still appears as permission denied on the client PC. "Others" can create and delete files, and Guest access is on.
[03:26] <daftykins> purnanand: i wouldn't recommend you try and use that thing, you aren't even sure how to find out an IP of a system you're running so i don't think it's going to go well.
[03:26] <daftykins> WillW_Laptop: samba logs would be good next
[03:27] <WillW_Laptop> daftykins theres no log file in /var/ ... is there a place i can find the samba logs?
[03:28] <WillW_Laptop> oh whoops i think i misread something
[03:29] <purnanand> hey buddy  pls tell me hoe to find out ip of a system it is my homework?
[03:29] <daftykins> lol homework
[03:29] <daftykins> no, ask your teacher
[03:30] <purnanand> yes buddy , it is punishment like?
[03:30] <daftykins> 'buddy' o0
[03:31] <WillW_Laptop> daftykins: I have no idea where samba logs are, where should i look?
[03:31] <daftykins> should be pretty obvious on entering /var/log

[03:36] <daftykins> runbum: ok so a 4TB seagate external
[03:36] <jak2000> not know why cant save a file on home of the user: see: http://pastie.org/9801426
[03:37] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: ill try
[03:37] <runbum> That's right.
[03:37] <runbum> I can't access it.
[03:37] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: are you installing ubuntu?
[03:37] <daftykins> runbum: right so this time, run gparted and create a partition on the drive
[03:37] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: i'm assuming the installer is sane enough to offer a Something else option
[03:38] <runbum> OK.
[03:38] <purnanand> Hey buzz, can anybody tell me what is MAAS UI?
[03:38] <OerHeks> jak2000, i think you need to create the file first? sudo touch rtom.sh && sudo vim rtom.sh
[03:38] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: im not sure what to try it with, i have options, was going to put ubuntu in partition and try steamOS or mint on external hdd
[03:39] <OerHeks> !maas
[03:39] <bobbybob> f
[03:39] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: you can install ubuntu on your disk, and use a vm for mint or other distros
[03:40] <bobbybob> y do i keep gettin discounnected
[03:40] <daftykins> bobbybob: dunno, ask #freenode
[03:40] <bobbybob> how do i join again
[03:40] <bobbybob> by typeing here
[03:40] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: it's pretty quick if you have a fast pc
[03:40] <bazhang> https://maas.ubuntu.com/2012/10/16/announcing-the-juju-web-ui/ purnanand
[03:40] <bobbybob> #freenode
[03:40] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: vm is slow
[03:41] <allmountainpro> dont need to run at same time so partitions is fine
[03:41] <purnanand> thanks buzz!!
[03:41] <allmountainpro> need the external hdd for running beside windows
[03:42] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: oh ok
[03:43] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: mint is pretty much like ubuntu
[03:43] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: install something else maybe
[03:44] <runbum> Here's the latest problem: Now gparted shows my internal HD on the GUI, but when I highlight the external drive, the internal drive stats still appear in the GUI. It shows the filesystem for my internal drive as ext4, but the Seagate shows a filesystem of "extended". (?) There is another partition now - linux swap.
[03:44] <purnanand> hey buzz,what to do about - Access the MAAS UI at http://maas.ip/MAAS/ and follow the instructions to create the administrator, then login with those credentials?
[03:44] <daftykins> runbum: share a screenshot via imgur.com
[03:44] <runbum> OK.
[03:44] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: ubuntu is stable enough to experiment with and a basic setup. ill put that in partition, steamos is only beta, put that on external to keep away from my files lol
[03:45] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: yeah
[03:46] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: keep mint for day to day crap, ill have fun breaking ubuntu and steamos haha
[03:47] <jasonjckn> finally about to get a ubuntu installation that works :D
[03:47] <purnanand> hey buddy, wolflarson, what to do about - Access the MAAS UI at http://maas.ip/MAAS/ and follow the instructions to create the administrator, then login with those credentials?
[03:47] <jasonjckn> 14.10 with xorg-edgers PPA
[03:47] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: i think ubuntu is more stable than mint
[03:49] <daftykins> purnanand: stop repeating and stop asking random nicknames
[03:49] <EriC^^> allmountainpro: probably best to use that as your main os
[03:50] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: ubuntu is basic and better for programming
[03:51] <daftykins> allmountainpro: notice the slightly amusing fact of telling an #ubuntu volunteer what the OS is like ;)
[03:53] <allmountainpro> daftykins: im aware, but im doing complicated things and have researched thoroughly for what i need, ive been told that ubuntu is what i should be experimenting with
[03:53] <WillW> Hey all, I asked this a few minutes ago but daftykins was also helping a ton of people: I'm trying to share a folder over the network with samba and give it guest access. The 3 options in nautilus are checked, and permissions are create and delete files for "others". But, the client PC says "permission denied" when trying to access the folder.
[03:56] <jak2000> OerHeks: http://pastie.org/9801439
[03:57] <allmountainpro> EriC^^: im just saying i dont want to use my buggy dist for programming and experimenting
[03:58] <runbum> daftykins - OK. Just uploaded a screenshot.
[03:59] <daftykins> runbum: are you gonna link it or? :P
[03:59] <HikaruBG> hi any channel for Ubuntu Gamers?
[03:59] <runbum> Yeah. Sorry. Doing that now.
[04:00] <daftykins> HikaruBG: what are you after exactly?
[04:00] <HikaruBG> some mame ROM-s :)
[04:00] <HikaruBG> I need to know where can I get some
[04:00] <daftykins> HikaruBG: so no, that's against this entire network.
[04:01] <daftykins> WillW: yeah that log didn't seem relevant. i reckon it's down to permissions, given you can't set permissions on NTFS, so unless it's a guest share you'll need to have fstab mount it accordingly
[04:03] <HikaruBG> daftykins, understood - I see I was mislead.  Are you saying that i need to mount the samba share in fstab somehow?
[04:05] <_sb> ops please kick purnanand
[04:06] <purnanand> It's not working ,buddy?daftykins!!!!!!
[04:06] <daftykins> WillW: tell you what, confirm samba's happy by sharing a folder on the EXT4 volume first to test all is well
[04:06] <WillW> good idea, brb
[04:06] <purnanand> lol
[04:07] <dragiz> how is everyone today
[04:08] <WillW> daftykins: I can confirm EXT4 shares are accessible on the client PC
[04:08] <daftykins> dragiz: still running a support channel that isn't for chat! :)
[04:08] <WillW> same methods, too
[04:09] <daftykins> WillW: good stuff, well that rules that out. i guess maybe you need a groupid to mount with too, no experience with getting fstab just right on that front though i'm afraid :(
[04:11] <Foxhoundz> Excuse me
[04:11] <Foxhoundz> I just installed avconv
[04:11] <Foxhoundz> and it's warning about it being outdated
[04:11] <Foxhoundz> is the avconv in Ubuntu's default repo outdated?
[04:12] <runbum> daftykins - It should be up there now. Lots of hassles with my email account. :(
[04:12] <teward> Foxhoundz: compared to upstream stable, it might be - doesn't mean that it's got security holes in it though, those might all be patched
[04:12] <nmatrix9> Anyone know how to see which program has a file lock?  Iam unable to unmount a mount point.
[04:12] <runbum> It's under "runbum1".
[04:13] <daftykins> runbum: you can upload without an account 0o just go to the image and paste the link here.
[04:13] <daftykins> nmatrix9: your own terminal isn't still in said path, is it? that's always a common gotcha
[04:13] <Foxhoundz> teward: curious. Who decides to update the ubuntu repo?
[04:14] <WillW_> daftykins: adding group ID to fstab did not have any effect :(
[04:14] <daftykins> WillW_: answer has to be in the logs somewhere, unless your share definition in smb.conf is funny
[04:14] <runbum> http://imgur.com/gallery/uoYe7xK
[04:15] <teward> Foxhoundz: it's usually not updated without good reason, except every new Ubuntu release, to prevent breakage of things that might depend on other items, and such
[04:15] <coltaine`> hi, having problems with bluetooth headset after resume, works fine on fresh boot, after resume, it only works if it's close to the laptop... like a foot away... i've tried reloading btusb, rfcomm, bluetooth modules, nothing works, thanks
[04:15] <daftykins> runbum: so in the upper right you need to click "/dev/sda" and change it to /dev/sdb
[04:16] <runbum> thx
[04:16] <WillW_> daftykins: it is funny. Because the share def isn't there. I'm not sure how it even shows up on the network. Is there another smb.conf that isn't located in /etc/samba?
[04:17] <teward> Foxhoundz: which ubuntu version are you on
[04:17] <daftykins> WillW_: how are you creating these shares?
[04:18] <WillW_> daftykins: nautilus>right click folder>properties>local network share
[04:18] <daftykins> ah GUI.
[04:19] <nmatrix9> daftykins, Yeah I looked out for that one lol.
[04:19] <runbum> When I click on "/dev/sda", it doesn't allow me to make the change.
[04:19] <Foxhoundz> teward: Ubuntu server
[04:19] <Foxhoundz> latest LTS
[04:19] <daftykins> runbum: in what way? is sdb not listed? does it jump out and grab your mouse-arm and say NO!
[04:19] <daftykins> nmatrix9: lsof might help
[04:20] <runbum> If I single click, it doesn't do anything. If I double click, an dialog box pops up with more details, but no way to access it.
[04:21] <teward> Foxhoundz: okay, yeah, assuming avconf is part of libav-tools, then yes it might be out of date - versions aren't bumped in stable releases (or any already existing releases) without really good reasons
[04:21] <teward> Foxhoundz: from what i can tell it's not too far behind - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libav
[04:21] <Bashing-om> nmatrix9: Maybe: You can use the  command to find out which process was keeping the device busy:
[04:21] <daftykins> runbum: i'm going to have to call it a night now i'm afraid. i'm sure someone else can help though
[04:22] <teward> Foxhoundz: relevant: http://askubuntu.com/questions/151283/why-dont-the-ubuntu-repositories-have-the-latest-versions-of-software
[04:22] <runbum> I think I need a good, strong drink...
[04:22] <runbum> Thanks for the help.
[04:22] <Bashing-om> nmatrix9:  # fuser -m /dev/sdc1 . or whichever the device/partition may be .
[04:26] <nmatrix9> Bashing-om, Thanks I found a way to umount  umount -a -t cifs -l works too.
[04:26] <aeoril> I installed node.js binaries from a tar.gz on the Joyent website.  I just tar xzf'ed it into my home directory, pointed a soft link to the directory and put the path tot he binary directory in my path and it just worked.  I was a little surprised - are the differences between different binary installs really more to do with different package managers than the compiled binaries?
[04:30] <dns53> aeoril binaries expect the libraries in the same place and to be the same or similar versions. Most binaries statically link the libraries to get around this so it should work the same but then you don't receive updates on those libraries
[04:30] <WillW> daftykins: OK, I just tried adding a new NTFS folder to smb.conf, still permission denied for the client, here's the share paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633162/
[04:32] <runbum> OK. I finally managed to change to /dev/sdb. Weird how the process is still pending. Crossing my fingers that the computer won't crash again.
[04:33] <runbum> It's gonna crash.
[04:34] <aeoril> dns53 yes, that makes sense
[04:34] <mortal1> howdy all
[04:34] <Bashing-om> nmatrix9: Thanks, new one on me, homework . :)
[04:34] <mortal1> I just had my xfce go black on me, i'm trying to find out what the deal is in log files
[04:35] <mortal1> what log file covers xwindow type events?
[04:36] <daftykins> WillW: hrmm guest would make it a different ballgame, but now your Windows box has a cache of the login used on that host perhaps. so might need a clean restart to reflect a guest auth. event viewer on windows might be handy to work out why it's denied on that side too. i've got to sleep now, but good luck :>
[04:36] <WillW> they're actually both ubuntu, and i make a new folder every time i test
[04:36] <WillW> but thanks for your help, enjoy your rest
[04:36] <daftykins> np :>
[04:38] <Bashing-om> mortale: look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and in your /home; .xsession-errors .
[04:51] <vpn1> Hi all
[04:56] <runbum> I'm wondering if anyone can help me use the terminal commands to format an external HD. Gparted isn't working.
[04:58] <gr33n7007h> runbum, use cfdisk it's a lot easier :)
[04:58] <runbum> OK. I wrote down the commands for fdisk. Is cfdisk the same?
[04:59] <gr33n7007h> runbum, yes but uses curses
[05:00] <gr33n7007h> runbum, run this commmand in terminal `sudo apt-get install util-linux` to install cfdisk
[05:00] <runbum> OK.
[05:02] <runbum> "E: unable to locate package util" "E: unable to locate package linux"
[05:03] <gr33n7007h> !info util-linux
[05:04] <gr33n7007h> sudo apt-get install util-linux
[05:04] <gr33n7007h> ^^ copy and paste to your terminal
[05:04] <gr33n7007h> runbum, ^^
[05:04] <runbum> Got it.
[05:05] <runbum> It is updated.
[05:05] <gr33n7007h> updated?
[05:06] <gr33n7007h> did it install?
[05:06] <runbum> Yeah. It says "util-linux is already the newest version."
[05:07] <gr33n7007h> type `sudo cfdisk` in terminal does anything show?
[05:07] <runbum> A GUI.
[05:07] <gr33n7007h> press q
[05:08] <runbum> It's back to the command terminal.
[05:08] <gr33n7007h> ok good
[05:08] <runbum> much better
[05:08] <gr33n7007h> runbum, do you know your external hd device node?
[05:09] <runbum> OK. I'm just learning this, so I might not be using the right terms. According to gparted, it's /dev/sda.
[05:10] <gr33n7007h> is /dev/sda you believe to be external HD
[05:10] <gr33n7007h> you can check with fdisk -l
[05:10] <gr33n7007h> make sure you have the right one
[05:11] <runbum> OK.
[05:11] <runbum> "Cannot open /dev/sda: Permission denied"
[05:11] <gr33n7007h> what command did you type?
[05:11] <runbum> fdisk -l
[05:11] <gr33n7007h> sudo fdisk -l
[05:12] <cfhowlett> runbum, also : paste would help immensely
[05:12] <cfhowlett> !paste | runbum
[05:12] <runbum> OK.
[05:14] <runbum> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633277/
[05:15] <gr33n7007h> runbum, is that the hard drive you want to format?
[05:15] <runbum> Yes. The 4TB Seagate external HD.
[05:16] <gr33n7007h> ok type `sudo cfdisk /dev/sda`
[05:17] <runbum> "cannot open /dev/sda: Permission denied"
[05:18] <gr33n7007h> Ah, partition table is gpt can't use cfdisk just noticed
[05:18] <runbum> Can I use fdisk?
[05:19] <gr33n7007h> you can use gdisk
[05:20] <runbum> OK. Are the commands the same, except to replace "cf" with "g"?
[05:20] <gr33n7007h> sudo gdisk /dev/sda
[05:21] <runbum> GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.8
[05:21] <gr33n7007h> yep
[05:21] <runbum> Good
[05:22] <runbum> gdisk /dev/sda ??
[05:22] <gr33n7007h> sudo gdisk /dev/sda
[05:23] <runbum> OK. A list of commands popped up.
[05:24] <gr33n7007h> runbum, What are you doing with this hdd?
[05:24] <runbum> hdd? sorry, new to this.
[05:25] <gr33n7007h> The 4TB Seagate external HD
[05:25] <cfhowlett> runbum, hdd = hard drive
[05:25] <runbum> Oh. I want to format it entirely. It doesn't have any data. I just wanted to change from the ntfs file system to ext4.
[05:26] <gr33n7007h> runbum, there is no ntfs on it
[05:27] <gr33n7007h> runbum, there's no partitions
[05:27] <runbum> I know. There used to be ntfs on it. I accidentally interrupted the formatting process, which is why I'm having so many problems. The drive isn't damaged, I just hit the wrong key accidentally.
[05:28] <runbum> It's all unallocated space.
[05:28] <gr33n7007h> runbum, try `mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda`
[05:28] <runbum> OK
[05:29] <runbum> It doesn't do anything.
[05:30] <gr33n7007h> nothing?
[05:30] <runbum> It erased the command, and put the cursor back to the prompt.
[05:31] <gr33n7007h> hmmm....
[05:31] <cfhowlett> gr33n7007h, run again with -V   verbose flag?
[05:32] <gr33n7007h> runbum, try `sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda`
[05:33] <gr33n7007h> cfhowlett, that's version :)
[05:33] <runbum> "You may need to edit /etc/fstab and/or your boot loader configuration!"
[05:33] <cfhowlett> gr33n7007h, doh!  I must have an old 'man' then.
[05:33] <gr33n7007h> :)
[05:34] <skwishy> Can someone help me figure out bluetooth audio? ubuntu 14.04 on a macbook pro
[05:34] <cfhowlett> !mac | skwishy
[05:34] <gr33n7007h> runbum, is it mounted to the desktop?
[05:35] <runbum> That's the problem. It won't mount after the formatting issue.
[05:36] <runbum> I wonder if I might have more luck on a Windows machine, and could use chkdsk?
[05:37] <runbum> although it doesn't show any ntfs at this point
[05:37] <gr33n7007h> have your tried formatting with gparted?
[05:37] <skwishy> ubottu: I've used that a while ago, and I'm starting to think my bluetooth audio problem is more generic than just a macbook thing
[05:37] <runbum> yes
[05:37] <runbum> crashed my system with it three times
[05:38] <skwishy> cfhowlett: :)  I've used that a while ago, and I'm starting to think my bluetooth audio problem is more generic than just a macbook thing
[05:38] <skwishy> the problem is that it pairs, then a few second later, it unpairs
[05:39] <skwishy> I'm kinda lost about bluetooth, I was hoping there would be more useful logs somewhere, but so far, I haven't found them
[05:39] <runbum> One problem might be that I (stupidly) used the "erase" long duration option of formatting. I don't know why, since there was nothing to erase, but could that be an issue?
[05:40] <gr33n7007h> runbum, I doubt it
[05:40] <runbum> good
[05:40] <runbum> The drive hardware seems ok.
[05:40] <gr33n7007h> use sudo gdisk /dev/sda
[05:40] <gr33n7007h> then use it like fdisk
[05:41] <runbum> same thing...rejected the command
[05:42] <runbum> What does the system mean by "you may need to edit /etc/fstab and/or your boot loader configuration!" ?
[05:42] <gr33n7007h> what about `sudo cgdisk /dev/sda`
[05:42] <skwishy> Using "hcitool scan" I can see the bt speaker listed, so that's good, right?
[05:43] <runbum> It came back with "You may need to edit......etc."
[05:45] <gr33n7007h> runbum, idk then, maybe try on your win machine
[05:45] <gr33n7007h> or wait till someone knows in here better?
[05:46] <runbum> Yeah. I'll have to go to a friends place for that. I don't often wish I had a Windows machine lying around. Thanks for the help.
[05:46] <gr33n7007h> ok :(
[05:47] <runbum> Maybe I'll just return it.   So I can figure out what it's trying to do with enabling bluetooth, and work with it "by hand" from bash?
[05:53] <lickalott> possibly dns53

[05:59] <cfhowlett> Guest11258, spam?  no.  stop.
[06:00] <skwishy> Does the bluetooth settings make any logging entries?  For example, when I enable or disable bluetooth from the gnome-settings, does this get logged somewhere?
[06:00] <Guest11258> password
[06:00] <cfhowlett> skwishy, every linux event gets logged ... SOMEWHERE :)
[06:00] <cfhowlett> Guest11258, ask your ubuntu question
[06:00] <skwishy> cfhowlett: yeah, but I'm surprised it's not syslog in this case
[06:01] <cfhowlett> skwishy, ls -ltr /var/log will show most recent log notations
[06:01] <skwishy> cfhowlett: I tried that already :(
[06:02] <skwishy> cfhowlett: hmm, not sure how I missed it, but it's actually logged in /var/log/syslog, so that's good!
[06:02] <cfhowlett> skwishy, :)
[06:05] <endersending> how do i install windows 95?
[06:05] <skwishy> ah, this looks like a good clue, after trying to pair, I see this entry logged in /var/log/auth.log:

[06:17] <shadaloo> what is the optimal way to start unity from tty1
[06:17] <skwishy> after editing /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf, should the "dbus" service be restared?
[06:17] <lickalott> dns53, if anyone else asks.  avidemux is the way to go.  (suitable substitute for virtualdub, nandub)
[06:20] <shadaloo> i have tried unity --reset, unity --replace and setsid unity, all fail
[06:20] <shadaloo> why is unity so horrible
[06:20] <frecel> are the repos broken? I'm getting 1KB/s downloads from ppas and the official repos, I can connect to antyhing else just fine
[06:20] <cfhowlett> shadaloo, you can use ANY of the desktop environments in repo.  choose a different one.
[06:22] <shadaloo> cfhowlett: no
[06:22] <shadaloo> cfhowlett: that is not what i want
[06:23] <shadaloo> after I switch to a different tty I want to be able to restart unity without having to rebbot
[06:23] <shadaloo> i dont want to use something 'depreciated', as unity describes 'unity --replace'
[06:23] <skwishy> When trying to pair my bluetooth speaker, the /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems to indicate it's trying to add it as a keyboard!
[06:24] <cfhowlett> skwishy, a "HID" human interface device?
[06:25] <skwishy> cfhowlett: I guess so?  here's the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633432/
[06:25] <skwishy> that address is my speaker bluetooth address
[06:25] <cfhowlett> skwishy, there's probably a method to configure that to speaker ...
[06:28] <skwishy> cfhowlett: It's weird, the gnome settings"Bluetooth New Device Setup" finds my speaker, and shows it as a "Device type: Headphones, headeset and other audio devices"
[06:30] <shadaloo> well
[06:30] <knoppix246785> lol
[06:30] <shadaloo> i figured out unity will not start by itself
[06:30] <basil1x> Attempt N°2 ASUS T100TA Ubuntu 14.10 x64 with self-compiled bootia32.efi.  This is getting tedious.
[06:30] <linuxmint> Hello, anyone know a good RedHat or CentOS channel please? #rhel and #dro aren't joining.
[06:31] <shadaloo> and service lightdm restart
[06:31] <shadaloo> works
[06:31] <cfhowlett> linuxmint, ask ##linux
[06:31] <shadaloo> thanks for all the help #ubuntu
[06:31] <knoppix246785> What is redhat?
[06:31] <shadaloo> (not rly)
[06:31] <linuxmint> cfhowlett: thanks.
[06:32] <basil1x> linuxmint, You might have to be a registered freenode user to join.  Have you registered with nickserv?
[06:32] <cfhowlett> knoppix246785, it's not ubuntu so off-topic
[06:32] <knoppix246785> Can you explain linux mint?
[06:32] <cfhowlett> !mint | knoppix246785,
[06:33] <linuxmint> basil1x: yes, all registered, but #linux says cannot send to channel on Freenode. I'll ask LinuxMint.
[06:38] <linuxmint> cfhowlett: hmm, seems #linux on freenode is broken. Error: cannot send to channel.
[06:39] <cfhowlett> linuxmint, ##linux        note: ##
[06:39] <linuxmint> cfhowlett: I don't understand. I tried /join #linux and /join ##linux.
[06:40] <dns53> linuxmint, i think you need to be identified with freenode before you can send a message
[06:40] <linuxmint> dns53: yes, I do have to log in. As it happens, I've logged in to freenode with the /NickServ bit to access this #ubuntu channel.
[06:41] <skwishy> In the gnome bluetooth settings, when you click the bluetooth "ON/OFF" slider, or the Connection "ON/OFF", is there a way to do the same thing via the command line?
[06:42] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, hciconfig hci0 down/up
[06:44] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: the hciconfig hci0 down worked, but up doesnt, any idea what this error means?
[06:44] <skwishy> root@mbp3:~# hciconfig hci0 up
[06:44] <skwishy> Can't init device hci0: Operation not possible due to RF-kill (132)
[06:45] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, sudo rfkill unblock all
[06:45] <gr33n7007h> or try with sudo
[06:45] <linuxmint> dns53: thanks for helping, but I've been told the rules are to ask first before sending a PM. Yes, your link http://www.linuxassist.net/how-to-connect/ is what I have done, but ##Linux still gives error: Cannot send to channel.
[06:45] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: cool, that seemed to work, thanks!!
[06:46] <gr33n7007h> :)
[06:46] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: any idea how to also establish an actual pairing connection via cli?
[06:47] <gr33n7007h> to what?
[06:47] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: to a headset/speaker
[06:48] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: maybe something like this? rfcomm connect hci0 50:56:BF:CF:3D:F2
[06:48] <gr33n7007h> via cli would imagine "rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 <macaddr> <port>"
[06:49] <coolmadmax> linuxmint, you need to be registered to nickserv
[06:49] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, figure out what port to connect to first with sdptool
[06:49] <linuxmint> coolmadmax: yes, I am registered to NickServ, as that's the only way I can connect and chat to this #Ubuntu channel.
[06:50] <mihir> hello
[06:50] <dns53> linuxmint you also need to message nickserv every time you connect  /msg nickserv identify password
[06:50] <mihir> nickserv
[06:51] <linuxmint> dns53: really? I connect to other channels just by /join #channelName.
[06:52] <dns53> you don't need to be registered for most channels, only some will not give you voice for that channel unless you are registered
[06:52] <linuxmint> dns53: hmm, I just tried in ##Linux field: /msg nickserv identify password <mypassword>
[06:53] <linuxmint> dns53: error: Invalid password for Password
[06:53] <gr33n7007h> linuxmint, remove password
[06:53] <gr33n7007h> password is supposed to be your password
[06:53] <coolmadmax> linuxmint, read ---> https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#registering
[06:53] <linuxmint> gr33n7007h: oh, I see, /msg nickserv identify <password>
[06:54] <gr33n7007h> yep :)
[06:55] <linuxmint> coolmadmax: yes, I know about the commands, but didn't know I had to log in again for ##linux. It worked now.
[06:56] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: using sdptool browse, how do you determine the bluetooth port to connect to with rfcomm?
[06:57] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, pastebin "sdptool browse <bdaddr>"
[06:57] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633498/
[06:59] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, no rfcomm chans there? you won't be able to connect over rfcomm :(
[07:00] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: I obvioulsy know nearly nothing about bluetooth, but I wonder, could I be stuck in a "hci mode"?
[07:01] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, no
[07:01] <gr33n7007h> the speakers must connect using l2cap layer
[07:01] <skwishy> gr33n7007h: do you happen to have any ideas about why when I try to pair to this headset device, I get an X error about trying to add it as a keyboard input device?
[07:02] <skwishy> I just wonder if that's maybe a clue
[07:03] <gr33n7007h> skwishy, not a clue, but I thought bluetooth speaker/headset was over rfcomm but i may be wrong
[07:03] <liberalPIGS> Usb headset skwishy
[07:05] <liberalPIGS> You have a EL-cheapo blue tooth device skwishy
[07:07] <squinty> liberalPIGS was ejected from the channel earlier today for talking absolute garbage... suggest you ignore the troll
[07:07] <cfhowlett> !ops | liberalPIGS,
[07:07]  * cfhowlett is grateful that #ubuntu-ops is on the case!
[07:08]  * gr33n7007h think so too...
[07:28] <wlxmhls> hello! xubuntu 14.10 turns blank after 10 min while watching flash video. how can i disable blank while playing it?
[07:30] <phunyguy> wlxmhls: a better option is to change the screen blanking behavior to a higher timeout.... not really sure there is another way.
[07:32] <phunyguy> wlxmhls: I think maybe there could be a power saving profile option to have it never blank the screen, that you can select while watching flash videos.   As far as how to do that, I don't know.  But this should give you a direction at leasr.
[07:32] <phunyguy> least*.
[07:33] <monst> I was curious if its possible to SSH in and interact with TTY1 ?
[07:34] <monst> so it is seen on the screen
[07:34] <jerrcs> monst: you could use something like screen or tmux to easily do that.
[07:34] <jerrcs> but the raw tty, not sure.
[07:35] <monst> i have a raspberry pi that boots up with a little screen to tty1, id like to be able to have the screen update via SSH
[07:36] <monst> without having to interact first with a keyboard/mouse
[07:36] <monst> screen would have to be have to be setup from tty1 first correct?
[07:39] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: you know anything about partitioning?
[07:40] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, a bit but typically just use GParted really
[07:40] <wlxmhls> phunyguy: it is better to detect audio/video working state: when audio/video is working, no blank screen.
[07:40] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: does gparted walk you through it?
[07:40] <jerrcs> monst: correct. it might not be what you are looking for honestly
[07:41] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, not really but it gives you all the stuff in a GUI to do it pretty easily and after you setup the changes you hit apply to commit them all at once when it looks good
[07:41] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: whatss a gui
[07:41] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, really though just need one partition for the system and a small partition for swap (equal to the size of your RAM ideally)
[07:41] <monst> jerrcs: maybe I can force tty1 into a screen a boot that I can connect to.
[07:41] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, GUI just means graphical user interface, just a windowed application not a terminal thing
[07:42] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: oh ok haha. i am balls deep into setting up 3 more distros. eyes are bleeding lol
[07:42] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, if you want to have a separate home partition too that can be useful so when you upgrade you leave the home partition with all your user data in it and just wipe out the OS partition, but personally haven't done that
[07:44] <cfhowlett_> !home | allmountainpro,
[07:44] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, yeah so with GParted you get a visual diagram of the disk and can right click on partitions to delete them or format them or whatever and it just queues up all the stuff you tell it to do, then when you hit apply it actually runs all those operations to partition the disk and format partitions however you set it up
[07:45] <bobbybob> hey all
[07:46] <bobbybob> whats the LD tonite
[07:46] <allmountainpro> ubottu: do i have to move home partition?
[07:47] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: do i have to make partitions in other format for linux distros or can i make the same?
[07:48] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, different distros will have different filesystem support to some degree but believe ext4 is pretty widely supported at this point
[07:48] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, there are some more advanced ones like btrfs and zfs that still have limited support
[07:49] <sup3rs4iyan> hello
[07:49] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: what would i search on ye olde google to find out for each distro?
[07:50] <sup3rs4iyan> idk whatever you want
[07:50] <cfhowlett_> sup3rs4iyan, ask your ubuntu question
[07:52] <sup3rs4iyan> ok...so i might sound a tad nub but how do i get GNOME on this comp...i got the latest Ubuntu version
[07:52] <cfhowlett_> !gnome | sup3rs4iyan
[07:52] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, yup er check the distro documentation wikipedia has a list of defaults in here too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Linux_distributions but doesn't show all the supported ones, and support gets added over time so depends on the version
[07:53] <sup3rs4iyan> ok let me open another terminal and type it in
[07:53] <bobbybob> any good tor onion site to visit ?
[07:54] <cfhowlett_> !ot | bobbybob,
[07:54] <wafflej0ck> bobbybob, this chat is just for support really more general chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:54] <gr33n7007h> does "free the fish" still work in ubuntu?
[07:54] <bobbybob> oh ok . thanks sorry very noob
[07:54] <cfhowlett_> gr33n7007h, eh?  test for yourself and see ...
[07:55] <gr33n7007h> I'm not on ubuntu :(
[07:55] <gr33n7007h> at the mo
[07:56] <gr33n7007h> it was alt+f2 then type "free the fish"
[07:57] <cfhowlett_> gr33n7007h, and that should do ... what?
[07:58] <gr33n7007h> display a swimming fish across the desktop :)
[07:58] <cfhowlett_> gr33n7007h, might have been gnome specific ... nothing here
[07:58] <gr33n7007h> ah, ok thanks for trying :)
[07:59] <wafflej0ck> nope no freethefish... I use cowsay sometimes to break up text :)
[07:59] <wafflej0ck> useful debugging tools :)
[08:04] <sup3rs4iyan> gnome is unable to find a valid context for me at login and i get system program error pop ups, what do you suggest i do?
[08:07] <lampo> Hi
[08:08] <chuxxsss> has anyone got hostapd working over wifi
[08:13] <amriunix> hi !! i want to asj, how can i setup the default interface for ubuntu !!! for example : i have wlan0, eth0 and ppp0 . currently ppp0 is the default interface . so how can i set eth0 as a default interfarce without close ppp0 ????
[08:19] <allmountainpro> if possible i could really use some help partitioning
[08:22] <wafflej0ck> !details | allmountainpro
[08:23] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, know generally what you're up to but where are you stuck what'd you do so far what are you trying to accomplish exactly at this point
[08:24] <allmountainpro> I am trying to make partitions before i get into the live cd. ive been told its easier to do before. havent done anything yet so nothing to reverse
[08:25] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: ^
[08:27] <amriunix> hi !! how can i setup the default network interface for ubuntu !!! for example : i have wlan0, eth0 and ppp0 . currently ppp0 is the default interface . so how can i set eth0 as a default interfarce without close ppp0 ????
[08:28] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: do you have experience with making partitions
[08:31] <bmtron> hi
[08:31] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, typically you can just let the installer setup the partitions for you really unless you want to separately have a home partition, if you want that you should just use gparted from the live disk to setup the partitioning then during the setup you can choose to manually setup your partitions/mount points and assign the appropriate partitions for / /boot /home and your swap space
[08:32] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, if you don't care so much about keeping the /home separate though you can just let the installer do the partitioning for you
[08:33] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, it is easier to do partitioning in advance in general since it doesn't have to shift data around the disk it's all just empty space being setup with tables to keep track of the data that will eventually go into the partitions
[08:35] <allmountainpro> wafflej0ck: can i resize without losing data?
[08:36] <wafflej0ck> allmountainpro, I have experience doing it but it's not something I do for my desktop setups in most cases, usually I have a backup running for my home folder so when there are major upgrades I just backup with clonezilla then wipe it all out and restore the data I need from my regular backup, you can resize without losing data but it typically take a lot longer especially if you have to move a partition, and you need to do it a
[08:36] <wafflej0ck> ll from a live disk too so the partition isn't mounted (think zfs lets you modify things more fluidly without shutdown/reboot but haven't used it yet myself)
[08:37] <mladoux> I have a question about 15.04, is anyone testing it, and if so, is it on systemd, or is it still on upstart... I'm waiting for it to get a bit further along in development before I touch it, but I'm just curious.
[08:37] <mwsb> mladoux: Might be better to ask in #ubuntu+1
[08:38] <mladoux> thanks, I will try there, not really a support question either way, but it helps to ask in the right place :)
[08:39] <janolap1> hi there, I need help : I have 2 disks on my system. The first one /dev/sda is for dual boot (xp/ubuntu) with 2 patitions /dev/sda1 (boot and xp) and /dev/sda2 (extended for ubuntu). This morning, I wanted to format in Fat32 /dev/sdb1 and unfortunatly I have formatted /dev/sda1 in Fat32. I didn't reboot as I think I loose grub. What can I do ?
[08:40] <janolap1> I am in Lubuntu, I have installed testdisk, but don't know what to do next...
[08:41] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, you can re-install grub if need be http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd
[08:42] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, could try the grub-repair program too if you prefer trying a GUI based thing instead/first
[08:42] <mladoux> I'm pretty sure grub would have installed on sda, however, if you want to be sure, you can run `sudo grub-install /dev/sda` minus the quotes, and it should set it up.
[08:44] <janolap1> wafflej0ock , mladoux : I think so : grub should be on sda. Is there a mean to restore sda on it's initial state (to get my data back) ? The format operation was really short (1 second). The data must be there again...
[08:45] <mladoux> well, it's only written to the first 512 bytes of the disk, if I recall properly, for the stage one, and stage 2 is loaded from your boot partition of the OS it was installed from.
[08:46] <mladoux> so, it really doesn't take more than a second to install it
[08:46] <mladoux> the whole thing won't fit in a normal boot record, especially if you're using MBR, versus GPT. Not sure what the limitations on GPT are.
[08:48] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, typically it's just going to be rewriting the partition table or filesystem information unless you explicitly wipe the drive, there are data recovery solutions that will let you read back the files but they tend to just scan the entire drive and attempt to find data but not really good for recovering the entire system just for recovering really important data
[08:49] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/recovering.html <-- this may be helpful
[08:51] <mladoux> oh, I misread I think, did you accidently reformat sda1?
[08:51] <dts|pokeball> hey guys... so ive got an ubuntu 14.04 vps, and im trying to install libapache2-mod-fastcgi which according to this http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libapache2-mod-fastcgi should be in my repos, but its not (searched via apt-cache). can someone help?
[08:51] <mladoux> because, if so, way out of my league buddy
[08:51] <mladoux> did you run apt-get update?
[08:51] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/80270/unix-linux-undelete-recover-deleted-files <-- this is eluding more to the kind of data recovery stuff I mentioned above and there are services and programs (thining in windows) that will do data recovery for you but like I said that's just for data itself not fixing the partitions
[08:52] <dts|pokeball> mladoux, not specifically for this issue, but i have, yes. just a few minutes ago when adding a ppa
[08:53] <mladoux> okay, did you install a ppa for the package specifically?
[08:54] <mladoux> I know, these questions may sound stupid, I'm just trying to establish a baseline.
[08:54] <dts|pokeball> its ok
[08:54] <dts|pokeball> and no
[08:54] <dts|pokeball> i added the ppa for hhvm
[08:54] <dts|pokeball> but now i want to set it up to work with apache (which is already running) but to do that i need the lib in question
[08:55] <mladoux> dts|pokeball, did you make sure to enable the multiverse repository?
[08:55] <mladoux> because that's where that package is.
[08:55] <dts|pokeball> how would i do that?
[08:55] <dts|pokeball> sorry, i havent used ubuntu in a long time
[08:56] <mladoux> sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) multiverse"
[08:56] <mladoux> should do it
[08:56] <dts|pokeball> ty
[08:56] <mladoux> np
[08:56] <mladoux> lemme know if you run into any further issue.
[08:57] <dts|pokeball> sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found
[08:57] <dts|pokeball> and apt-add-repository isnt there either
[08:57] <dts|pokeball> do i need to install software-properties-common or something like that?
[08:58] <Ubnoobti> hi, I am using 12.04, and I am getting E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) any time I try to upgrade, remove or reinstall anything.
[08:58] <mladoux> oh, server edition, yeah, you need that. just a sec dts|pokeball I'll grab the correct command for you
[08:59] <dts|pokeball> mladoux, thanks a ton
[08:59] <mladoux> sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
[08:59] <mladoux> there ya go
[08:59] <dts|pokeball> i knew it was something like that
[08:59] <dts|pokeball> i would rather not say why i know that though
[08:59] <mladoux> dts|pokeball, I knew you were close, but I also knew you were wrong
[08:59] <mladoux> lol
[09:00] <mladoux> I know that stuff because I spend entirely too much time on the CLI
[09:00] <dts|pokeball> meh, i guess i can give you a good face palm
[09:00] <mladoux> lol, no worries
[09:00] <dts|pokeball> i was trying to install clang via source on mint
[09:00] <dts|pokeball> and it was a botched install
[09:00] <dts|pokeball> so i had to manually remove it
[09:01] <dts|pokeball> i accidently did rm -rf /usr/bin
[09:01] <xangua> reinstall ubuntu
[09:01] <mladoux> I don't even use ubuntu that often anymore, most of my machines are either arch, bsd, or RHEL/CentOS
[09:01] <dts|pokeball> i was using manjaro for the longest time
[09:01] <dts|pokeball> love it, just not stable enough
[09:02] <janolap1> mladoux, wafflej0ck : ok, I have read the given pages. I accidently format /dev/sda1, containing grub and windows xp system. I'm trying to "unformat" it by using testdisk... if any advice...
[09:03] <mladoux> janolap1, yeah, sorry, I can't help with that, I'll only end up destroying your system further.
[09:03] <janolap1> mladoux : :-)
[09:03] <mladoux> I know enough to know when I don't know what I'm talking about.
[09:04] <dts|pokeball> thansks mladoux worked like a charm
[09:04] <janolap1> mladoux : great skill
[09:05] <mladoux> dts|pokeball, of course it did, it was the correct way to do it.
[09:05] <mladoux> you're welcome
[09:05] <mladoux> lol
[09:06] <janolap1> Anyone else to help me in an accidentual format of my grub/boot/xp partition ?
[09:08] <Ubnoobti> hey all
[09:09] <Ubnoobti> Anyone give me some advice on what to do?
[09:10] <xangua> you do or do not, there is no try
[09:10] <mladoux> was there a question?
[09:10] <Ubnoobti> hi, I am using 12.04, and I am getting E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) any time I try to upgrade, remove or reinstall anything.
[09:10] <wafflej0ck> janolap1, yeah sorry don't know anything more than what I linked or what Google can answer about that specifically and too tired to be more helpful at this point
[09:10] <Ubnoobti> how do I fix it
[09:11] <mladoux> did you try running `sudo apt-get -f install`
[09:11] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, you try rebooting since you saw the error to see if some other process is causing dpkg problems
[09:11] <janolap1> wafflej0ck : ok, thanks :-)
[09:11] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, could also try with -f like mladoux says or check /var/log/dpkg.log
[09:12] <mladoux> yeah, that should cause it to fix any incomplete package installs
[09:12] <mladoux> the log is useful too, because that will tell you what's broke in most cases.
[09:12] <Ubnoobti> for -f I get E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:12] <mladoux> something else is using it.
[09:12] <mladoux> perhaps the lock didn't get released
[09:12] <Ubnoobti> Ive rebooted,
[09:13] <Ubnoobti> no luck
[09:13] <mladoux> then 'sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock'
[09:13] <mladoux> and try again.
[09:13] <mladoux> but only if you've rebooted, and no other apt-gets are running
[09:14] <notfadssssssss> can someone help me potentially? I am trying to install ubuntu and after install successfully goes through initial reboot leads to a black screen.. If someone can help I will paypal them been at this for 2 days now, I have bootlogs!
[09:14] <Ubnoobti> no other apt gets are running
[09:14] <Ubnoobti> I did the rm /var command, nothing happened
[09:14] <mladoux> notfadssssssss, show boot logs, https://paste.ubuntu.com please
[09:15] <mladoux> you deleted the lock, there's no feedback
[09:15] <Ubnoobti> oh god, I just want to get skype working
[09:15] <Ubnoobti> should I just reinstall ubuntu?
[09:15] <notfadssssssss> mladoux: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9629025/
[09:15] <zoobuntu> Hi there, I have a usb wifi device. Each time I reboot, the only way for me to have the system detect it is, by re-inserting the device physically.
[09:16] <zoobuntu> How can I make it detect itself at reboot? (on a command line installation)
[09:16] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, not sure had to debug with just that info though can pastebin your tail -f /var/log/dpkg.log too might give us some more details
[09:16] <wafflej0ck> hard*
[09:17] <Ubnoobti> soz man, do what? Tell me what to type in, and what to paste in pasta bin, very clearly,
[09:17] <Ubnoobti> -f /var/log/dpkg.log?
[09:20] <dts|pokeball> sorry, ive got a new issue now. so im trying to get hhvm https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/wiki/fastcgi to work with apache, using this page, but for some reason it still doesnt want to show the .hh file
[09:20] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, tail -f /var/log/dpkg.log
[09:20] <kazzum> I compiled a custom kernel (it was my college assigment), then i removed everything in boot, and thought reinstalling linux-image will bring generic image back, i reinstalled linux-image-generic but /boot is still empty,
[09:20] <dts|pokeball> sorry, ive got a new issue now. so im trying to get hhvm to work with apache, using this page https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/wiki/fastcgi, but for some reason it still doesnt want to show the .hh file
[09:20] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, tail just shows the last chunk of the output of a file
[09:20] <dts|pokeball> **
[09:21] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, -f makes it "follow" the file so it will show any new output too, you can run the apt-get command after doing the tail -f so we can see what happens when you run the command if anything in the log
[09:21] <Ubnoobti> wafflej0ck: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633871/
[09:22] <mladoux> notfadssssssss, reading
[09:23] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, hmm crepe well that wasn't really helpful (not your fault was hoping we got something more about the error in there too)
[09:23] <notfadssssssss> mladoux: thank you like I said If anyone can help me boot this properly I will pay them
[09:23] <Ubnoobti> oh okay,
[09:24] <kuchikuu> Ok... I give up... HOW to list channel in irssi
[09:24] <kuchikuu> except using /msg alis
[09:24] <kuchikuu> because other servers doesn't support it
[09:24] <kuchikuu> list channels*
[09:24] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, did you try rerunning the command after you deleted the lock file? didn't see that had happened till just now reading back?
[09:25] <missingplane> notfadssssssss, hi
[09:25] <missingplane> i've read your log ...
[09:25] <notfadssssssss> missingplane: hello :)
[09:25] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, typically like mladoux said no messsage means no problem it deleted the lock file and you should be good to run apt-get again
[09:25] <Ubnoobti> wafflej0ck: i got
[09:25] <Ubnoobti> V(Reading database ... 95%dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:  files list file for package 'libvncserver0' is missing final newline E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) A package failed to install.  Trying to recover: Processing triggers for menu ...
[09:25] <missingplane> could you open private chat with me, my irc client doesnt support opening new private session
[09:26] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, hmm yeah not sure how to fix but at least you have something you can google on a bit libvncserver0 missing final newline
[09:27] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, sounds like maybe you got some half package or something and it wasn't formatted properly as a result (missing the ending new line) but perhaps need to remove and re-install that package, like sudo apt-get install libvncserver0 --reinstall or whatever includes it
[09:27] <Ubnoobti> i spent 4 hours trying to figure it out
[09:29] <Ubnoobti> wafflej0ck: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633885/
[09:30] <mladoux> notfadssssssss, it seems like, and I'm not sure on this, that the system might be trying to run fsck on an encrypted volume without decrypting it first, mistaking it for a disk that needs to be repaired and thus not booting... I'm looking for a work around.
[09:30] <notfadssssssss> mlaudoux: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633874/ here is a fresh bootlog I might have linked an old copy
[09:31] <mladoux> cool
[09:31] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, hmm yeah seems like something got seriously botched with your apt-get when it comes to creating/deleting lock files so it's thinking other apt-get processes are still running or configuration programs
[09:31] <mladoux> oh, yeah, this is different, notfadssssssss give me a moment.
[09:32] <Ubnoobti> wafflej0ck:  ???
[09:32] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, if you are early on in your setup you might want to wipe it all out actually, wanted to try and help just get the immediate issues resolved but not sure about reinstalling apt-get and related components themselves
[09:33] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, apt-get creates these lock files so you don't run multiple instances at once since that can cause problems (two installs configuring the same files at the same time etc.) but something seems to be very wrong with how apt-get is working on your system
[09:34] <Ubnoobti> wafflej0ck: right... So whats my next step reinstalling ubuntu?
[09:36] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, if you ask me yea, but you might be able to get more support from others, but like I said if you just did this setup and are having problems with apt-get that seems very suspect of other things that could be wrong... did you or can you run md5sum on the image and check with the md5sum on the site you download from, that checksum should match between the two, good to verify this to be sure your download or burned/USB co
[09:36] <wafflej0ck> pied image is the same
[09:36] <wafflej0ck> Ubnoobti, gotta knock out here though 3:30am
[09:36] <Ubnoobti> alright man
[09:36] <Ubnoobti> thanks
[09:38] <mladoux> notfadssssssss, is secureboot enabled?
[09:38] <mladoux> if so, can you disable it?
[09:38] <mladoux> that's in your bios.
[09:38] <notfadssssssss> no secure boot
[09:38] <mladoux> okay
[09:38] <notfadssssssss> option in the bios
[09:39] <mladoux> no option in the bios...
[09:39] <notfadssssssss> no option*
[09:39] <mladoux> okay, I hope it's not enabled. Easy way to check, has linux ever successfully ran on this device?
[09:39] <mladoux> if so, probably not an issue.
[09:40] <kazzum> hey i removed kernels in /boot and /lib/modules, when i try to install new kernel it fails like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633926/
[09:40] <mladoux> although, Grub is complaining about secureboot, which requires Grub 2.04 or newer, I believe, and you're running grub 1.99
[09:41] <mladoux> you may need to install an upgraded grub to get it working.
[09:42] <mladoux> or switch to the efilinux loader

[11:45] <elichai2> hey
[11:46] <elichai2> i like using the latest version of any package, and a while ago i used Arch, and Arch uses the latest versions of everything. but now i use Ubuntu, and now i got version 14.10 and i thought why not upgrade to 15.04
[11:47] <elichai2> anyone here running ver. 15.04?
[11:49] <ikonia> elichai2: guys in #ubuntu+1 channel are
[11:52] <mladoux> #ubuntu+1 for that stuff I was told
[11:52] <mladoux> 15.04 is still alpha from my understanding -- probably wouldn't run it as a main system.
[12:04] <DrManhattan> I just partitioned my system with software raid. I blanked the disks completely beforehand. Is my system supposed to kick off a resync the first time I boot?

[12:26] <mikeirc> Please how to solve the problem of installing ia32-libs for teamviewer and google earth
[12:27] <snyp> I have to reset most of the settings i see in powertop everytime i boot my computer
[12:27] <Freed309> Hi. I need help, I've tried the Lubuntu IRC but it hasn't helped.
[12:28] <Freed309>  I'm having an issue with my Wireless. Occasionally the hardware switch goes orange by itself and all wireless connections die. Before this used to happen when I left the computer on sleep. Now it's happening without warning.
[12:28] <Freed309> Before I would kill the process, i.e Network Manager.
[12:28] <Freed309> But now that won't work.
[12:29] <Freed309> And I tried Killing the Modem Manager as well.
[12:29] <Freed309> That also did not work. The processes restarted.
[12:30] <mikeirc> Install teamviewer and google-earth on ubuntu 41.04 64 bits
[12:30] <Freed309> ?
[12:30] <mikeirc> Install teamviewer and google-earth on ubuntu 14.04 64 bits
[12:30] <Freed309> mikeirc: I don't see how that has to do with anything.
[12:31] <Freed309> The problem here is faulty networking processes.
[12:31] <daychilde> Good morning. Got a problem - can I jump in explaining or should I wait a bit?
[12:31] <mikeirc> I have problem of dependency because ia32-libs is needed but can't be installed
[12:31] <Freed309> ...
[12:31] <Freed309> Sorry Mike XD
[12:32] <Freed309> mikeirc: Did it specify why?
[12:32] <Freed309> daychilde: Go ahead?
[12:33] <daychilde> Thanks, just didn't want to spam the channel. hehe. #Xubuntu suggested I try here or #grub; more active here....  Doing 'ls (hd0)/boot' for all three returns 'unknown file system'. Doing 'set' returns three parms, prefix, cmdpath, root. All reference hd0. Tried 'set boot=(hd0)', then 'insmod normal', but that returns unknown filesystem. Rebooting and boot= goes away.
[12:37] <daychilde> And finally, bootinginto livecd (which takes long time on ancient computer), gparted ran >30mins searching, nothing. But harddrive appears, but only Windows part. :/
[12:37] <daychilde> oh, and I know it'ls all NTFS
[12:37] <Freed309> I think Dual Booting sort of messed up your PC XD
[12:38] <daychilde> Probably, but it has been running this configutation for months if that helps
[12:38] <daychilde> no recent changes. upgraded to 14.10 a couple weeks ago I think
[12:38] <Freed309> I'm not too knowledgable about that. But the bootloader seems to have been messed up. And it can happen spontaneously.
[12:38] <daychilde> I believe that :)
[12:38] <Freed309> That may have been a factor.
[12:38]  * daychilde is Linux newbie, but used to do some Windows tech support hehe
[12:39]  * daychilde is weak on booting and partitions, though
[12:39]  * Freed309 is Linux Moderate user. First term of College.
[12:42] <illusionld> daychilde: i just joined. are you add linux to an existing windows boot, or rescue a dual boot?
[12:42] <illusionld> *trying to add
[12:43] <daychilde> resuing dualboot that was working for months :) illusionld
[12:44] <daychilde> *rescuing
[12:44] <daychilde> sorry, keyboard is tiny
[12:44] <illusionld> did you change any bios settings such as setting something to uefi or disabling it?
[12:44] <daychilde> nope, shut down last night and booted up this morning
[12:44] <illusionld> or anything with 'windows security' in bios
[12:44] <daychilde> haven't booted into windows for weeks to motnhs
[12:45] <illusionld> windows isn't booting either right?
[12:45] <daychilde> right, don't get boot menu anymore, just goes straight to grub rescue
[12:45] <daychilde> boot= is blank each time, too
[12:45] <jefinc> daychilde: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[12:46] <daychilde> jefinc: haven't yet but will gladly try that
[12:47] <jefinc> daychilde: can boot with a livecd and download to a flash drive, probably simplest way
[12:48] <daychilde> can't boot to usb drive on this old comp. lol
[12:48] <daychilde> thankfully 2nd comp in house

[12:51] <Voyage> i
[12:51] <Voyage> Can gparted do what partion magic 8 did for windows?
[12:52] <Voyage>  HI, Is there a good alternative to partion magic 8 for windows 7? I have an external HDD and its been messed. No drive letter is assinged to
 I cant do anything with windows buildin disk managment. I need to do couple of resizing without deleting data
[12:55] <littlebit> hi people, I wanted to copy the settings and configurations gvim from one xubuntu host to another. The dumb thing is that I thought that it would work. Now I'm standing here with a vim that gives me error messages every time when I start it.
[12:55] <littlebit> can someone help
[13:11] <daychilde> Crap. Okay, I ran Boot-Disk-Repair and now I get a Windows boot manager that says it can't start. But I don'lt want Windows at all.... any advice on how to get back to my xubuntu installation? D:
[13:15] <daychilde> gonna run it again and poke around, just hoping for advice. lol
[13:22] <clipse> test
[13:27] <daychilde> So I can see Windows files in /mnt/boot-sav/sda2 but no Xubuntu anything anywhere... can anyone help me see it if exists? gparted only shows sda1 and sda2. boot is on sda1. And this was what I had as of a few weeks ago - somehow xubuntu was running inside the windows partition......... does that make sense?
[13:28] <ikonia> daychilde: is this a wubi install ?
[13:28] <ikonia> it certainly sounds lke it
[13:28] <ikonia> like
[13:28] <daychilde> sorry, don't know what that is. When I installed, used LiveCD if that helps... at least, I'm pretty sure I did....
[13:29] <daychilde> i'll google what that is, brb
[13:30] <daychilde> I don't recall anything about wubi when I installed, but I
[13:30] <daychilde> I'm somewhat of a liux newbie. Is there a way I can check to see?
[13:31] <k1l_> daychilde: did you install ubuntu into own partitions? or did you install that inside windows?
[13:32] <daychilde> To the best of my memory, I isntalled from livecd and I don'lt know enough to manually set partitions, so I let it do it. But IIRC, I do only have these two partitions in gparted because I was going to resize xubuntus to make it larger, but couldn't figure out how
[13:32] <ikonia> daychilde: how many disks do you have in the system
[13:33] <daychilde> can say grub came up and offered boot options when I booted... I'm sorry I'm a newbie on this :/
[13:33] <daychilde> one physical drive
[13:33] <k1l_> daychilde: can you show a "sudo fdisk -l" (small L at the end) into a pastebin
[13:33] <ikonia> daychilde: when you say you installed from a livecd, did you boot the livecd, or put the CD in while running windows and click install ?
[13:33] <daychilde> sure, working
[13:33] <daychilde> boot livecd, I could swear, but it has been several months. brb with pastebin
[13:35] <daychilde> http://pastebin.com/Qg7wiyY3
[13:36] <ikonia> it's going to be a wubi install
[13:37] <daychilde> so...  Any way to blow away Windows and get back my xubuntu, or..... can I safely reinstall Windows and then reinstall as wubi (and I can copy my data and blow it all away and screw dual booting)?
[13:37] <ikonia> daychilde: what is your end goal ?
[13:37] <daychilde> 1) however
[13:37] <daychilde> sorry
[13:38] <daychilde> 1) however I can, get back xubuntu. Don't care about windows. or 2) I have external drive, if I can copy files from Windows partition and use them to get xubuntu somehow...... like backup files, blow away hd, install fresh xubuntu, restore files
[13:38] <daychilde> if that akes sense
[13:38] <daychilde> *makes, sorry
[13:38] <ikonia> whats your end target system, ubuntu, windows, dual boot ?
[13:38] <daychilde> xubuntu only
[13:39] <daychilde> screw Windows heh
[13:39] <ikonia> daychilde: so why don't you just re-install xubuntu properly ?
[13:39] <ikonia> unless I've miss-understood you
[13:39] <daychilde> If I do that right now, will I lose my previous installation? I was in middle of changing backups so I do have valuable data I don't want to lose if possible
[13:40] <ikonia> daychilde: when you boot the machine, what happens, does it go to grub or boot straight into windows ?
[13:40] <daychilde> booting machine after boot-repair disk auto repair goes to Windows boot manager which refuses to boot, saying hardware changed (which is not true)
[13:40] <daychilde> (no longer goes to grub, which it used to)
[13:41] <ikonia> daychilde: this sounds like a wubi install, that you've used boot repair on and it's screwed up your boot loader
[13:41] <ikonia> that is a big guess though
[13:41] <daychilde> makes sense to me
[13:41] <daychilde> how is wubi install of ubuntu stored? how can I get to it? lol
[13:41] <ikonia> daychilde: not really, it does a file system in a file thats on the ntfs windows drive,
[13:42] <ikonia> it's a pretty messy process
[13:42] <ikonia> the boot loader setup is a real mess
[13:42] <daychilde> so basically I'm probably screwed already, from the sound of it?
[13:42] <ikonia> daychilde: you may get back into it, but without being rude, I'm not going to put the time into walking through, wubi is a mess and it was dropped for a good reason
[13:43] <daychilde> no, understand completely and appreciate help and time
[13:43] <daychilde> am ex tech support, so completely understood
[13:44] <daychilde> sounds like best bet is to do some googling - I have way more info than I had, so am very htankful - and either see if I can recover, or cut losses and blowhd away, which I can do myself. hehe.
[13:44] <daychilde> Many thanks for your help, and all of you. <3
[13:44] <ikonia> no problem, sorry to not be positive about it
[13:44] <daychilde> nah, as said, understand 100%
[13:48] <ivarson> Im trying to browse my windows share from Nautilus in 14.10, im authed but get mount error: invalid argument
[13:49] <ivarson> I don't have to mess with smb.conf or mount.cifs to get nautils to work, do I?
[13:49] <ikonia> they are server settings
[13:49] <ikonia> not client
[13:53] <DrManhattan> I used the additional drivers app to install the ATI proprietary driver. It works well but I need to enable vsync globally so I don't get tearing when playing flash video. How do I do this?
[13:53] <ivarson> sorry, smb.conf might, I meant you could use mountutilities on the client to mount shares, but nautilus should be independent of such ?
[13:53] <DrManhattan> I am not seeing catalyst control center anywhere
[13:54] <ikonia> ivarson: smb.conf should not be used for the client
[13:54] <ikonia> ivarson: it is a server setting
[13:57] <ivarson> ikonia: yes you're right, but mount.cifs eg. you can mount remote share to local mountpoints.
[13:57] <ikonia> ivarson: that is a binary
[13:57] <ikonia> ivarson: you don't change a binary
[13:58] <ivarson> if you're not into reverse engineering, no of course not :-)
[13:58] <ikonia> I'm missing your point then
[13:58] <ivarson> sorry for being unclear
[13:59] <ivarson> Is the cifs/smb-functionality in Nautilus dependent on more "native" functionality in ubuntu. I always get error when trying to access shares so Im wondering if there's anything I can do to get nautlius working
[14:00] <ikonia> ivarson: it uses the libraries to allow smb over fuse support
[14:00] <ikonia> ivarson: if you're getting authentication failure, it's normally the windows machine refusing your auth, normally down to the username being wrong on connection
[14:01] <ikonia> ivarson: (some guess work there based on the more common problems people have)
[14:01] <ivarson> ikonia: thanks for your patience. The windows-box accepts my creds, I can see all share including hidden adminsitrative ones
[14:01] <ikonia> ivarson: how are you inputting your credentials ?
[14:01] <ikonia> ivarson: and where are you intputting them ?
[14:03] <ivarson> there's a credential-popup as soon as im trying to browse the "machine", since I use microsoft-account i use an email-adres for username, keeping Domain to the default WORKGROUP
[14:03] <jatt> ivarson: yes it is. you can access shares from the command line
[14:03] <ikonia> ivarson: try<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:04] <ikonia> ivarson: it maybe trying to auth it somewhere other than the windows machine
[14:04] <ikonia> eg: locally
[14:04] <ivarson> ikonia: But i do get authed? If i type creds in any other way i get instant refused? it seems like a mount-issue
[14:05] <ikonia> ivarson: you could always try to mount it manually and see what it does
[14:05] <ivarson> shares such as C$ aren't event discoverable if you're anonymous/unauthed, aren't they?
[14:05] <ikonia> (outside of nautius)
[14:05] <ikonia> ivarson: depend, you're not on a windows machine, so how they get presented to a linux desktop is questionable
[14:07] <sempatnick> deneme
[14:08] <ivarson> sure, i can mess with mount.cifs or smbclient or smb4k. I just now that this works in gnome3 in other distros and I'd like to avoid having to mess with fstab or commandlines for this particular action
[14:09] <ikonia> ivarson: testing it an verifying it with a manual mount is step one, once we know the situation, we can move forward with nautlius from there
[14:10] <ivarson> You're right. Just one more Q; Do you know if and where nautilus logs this kind of activites, or is it possible to activate it in gconf-editor or something?
[14:10] <sempatnick> türkiye kanalı ne idi ?
[14:11] <ikonia> ivarson: it's going to be a fuse based mount, so I'm not sure where you'd see that, it's worth logging at the samba logs in /var/log too, as that used to log samba client connections, not sure if that would include fuse though
[14:11] <sempatnick> turkish chanel ?
[14:11] <ikonia> !tr | sempatnick
[14:11] <sempatnick> thanks :D
[14:12] <ivarson> doesn't seem so. Thank you anyway for your effort ikonia
[14:14] <Tobbe82> I am working on setting up a personal webserver in a local box in my home using ubuntu server 14.04. On it I am trying to install Open Atrium 2. Now I have followed various tutorials online and managed to get drupal going but then somehow broke the ability to read & write via FTP. Now the server is of a "patch work" of so in regards to settings etc. And I realise that since I'm quite a beginner
[14:14] <Tobbe82> when it comes to ubuntu servers etc. I'd need some help.
[14:15] <ikonia> Tobbe82: I'd suggest re-installing ubuntu 14.04 - then asking people to guide you forward
[14:15] <Tobbe82> First question is if I should start from scratch by doing a clean install and then set it up via the help of you guys (since all the tutorials and guides i've tried online eventuelly leads into permission problems)
[14:15] <raiden> hi, can someone help me to open ssh 22 pls?
[14:15] <ikonia> Tobbe82: you'll find a lot of tutorials online are written very badly by people who got it working from them
[14:16] <ikonia> raiden: it's open by default on your ubuntu install
[14:16] <raiden> but i cant access it..
[14:16] <raiden> timed out
[14:16] <Tobbe82> yes ikonia this is sortof the same conclusion i've come to myself. I mean I understand all the different aspects of the installation etc. I just don't know if off hand and what is industry standard or some garage hacking so to speak
[14:16] <ikonia> Tobbe82: approach it in blocks, eg: install ubuntu, check, install apache and get a web page working, check, install drupal and it's dependencies, check
[14:17] <Tobbe82> Ok let me go and re-partition / set up a new clean ubuntu 14.04 install and get back to you on it.
[14:17] <raiden> ikonia: what should i do to open for me on other computer?
[14:17] <ikonia> raiden: it's normally open by default
[14:17] <Tobbe82> ikonia that is sort of what I have been doing but anyways I'll re-install and run it by you guys in here
[14:17] <ikonia> raiden: do you have the package openssh-server installed ?
[14:18] <raiden> ikonia: but what should i do now "operation timed out"
[14:18] <ikonia> raiden: do you have the package openssh-server installed ?
[14:18] <raiden> ikonia: yes
[14:18] <ikonia> raiden: can you do "ssh localhost" on the ubuntu machine
[14:18] <BluesKaj_> 'Morning folks
[14:21] <raiden> ikonia: yes i can
[14:21] <ikonia> raiden: is the client you are connecting from on the same network as your ubuntu machine or is it going over the internet
[14:24] <Voyage> Hi, I have an external HDD and gparted says "no valid partition table found on this device", I can however see/read data inside partitions of that drive. (not from windows though). How can I fix it without loosing data?
[14:26] <Dwaan_> copy data somwhere else
[14:26] <Dwaan_> format drive
[14:27] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> When I re-install Ubuntu 14.04 server do I also install LAMP and Mail server? Or do I skip that and do the get-apt update, then update everything and then install LAMP and Mail via get command?
[14:28] <Dwaan_> the second one
[14:29] <raiden> ikonia: i got all but cant connect to linux over port 22
[14:29] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> Dwaan_ was that a response directed @ me?
[14:29] <Dwaan_> Tobbe-82|Reinsta, yes
[14:31] <ayiden> Some people learn python?
[14:32] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> I'll be back then when I reach that stage
[14:35] <ayiden> i want to teach yourself python .Is there a good tutorial can be recommended to me
[14:38] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> Set up disk via LVM or non LVM?
[14:38] <R13ose> In Chrome, I have no sound, how do I fix this?

[14:50] <acovrig> I'm having issues setting my resolution with xrandr; it says "
[14:50] <acovrig> xrandr: cannot find mode "1920x1080_60.00"
[14:50] <acovrig> " when running "xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1920x1080_60.00
[14:50] <acovrig> "
[14:51] <acovrig> *sigh* stupid copy+paste, it seemed like my client ignored the \n, but I guess not... sorry.
[14:51] <EriC^^> did you do xrandr --newmode before that?
[14:52] <acovrig> EriC^^, yup, this is `xrandr`: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9635041/
[14:54] <R13ose> In Chrome, I have no sound, how do I fix this?
[14:54] <acovrig> EriC^^, this is my newmode line: xrandr --newmode $(gtf 1920 1080 60|grep -v '#\|^$'|awk '{print substr($0,12);}')
[14:57] <l_r> i am really disappointed with ubuntu. if I 1. switch to the guest user , 2. switch  back to my initial user 3. switch to guest user again, then ubuntu asks me for the password for the guest user to login,, so what is this password ?
[14:59] <EriC^^> acovrig: the modeline is wrong

[15:07] <manikanta> hello
[15:07] <manikanta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9635096/
[15:07] <manikanta> how to resolve that error?
[15:07] <manikanta> unmet dependencies???
[15:12] <mikeirc> I have problem of dependency because ia32-libs is needed but can't be installed ubuntu 14.04
[15:13] <MonkeyDust> manikanta  try sudo apt-get -f install   <-- -f means fix
[15:13] <acovrig> EriC^^, thanks, that seems to have solved it, but I don't get a display after, I guess my hypervisor/VNC doesn't support 1920...
[15:13] <manikanta> MonkeyDust : I've tried that
[15:13] <manikanta> no use :/
[15:15] <MonkeyDust> manikanta  i picked this working script up in this channel -- paste as a simple text file and make it executable  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9635135/

[15:21] <nbusrone> hi , I have a question , I saw somewhere mention it's possible to move an installed ubuntu OS / partition to other partition of hard disk. Will it be complicated doing that ?
[15:24] <home> .kerat.net
[15:24] <MonkeyDust> nbusrone  is your / on a separate partition?
[15:24] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : having a ubuntu 12.04 at sda3 Primary which I wanted to move it to sda6 extended.
[15:25] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> Ok, I have done a clean re-install of Ubuntu server 14.04 and run sudo apt-get update     & apt-get upgrade. I figure the next step is to set it up so I can telnet into the site using putty? If so what is the industry standard way of setting this up?   (I'm working towards setting up a LAMP webserver that will allow multiple users, websites and ftp access)
[15:25] <daychilde> Quick advice: I'm a linux newbie, in the process of blowing away previous installation and starting over.... Previously, my.... /boot (I think? sorry, new and forget which was what) partition was too small (an obscure bug)... so I'm specifying partitions this time. Would it be a good idea to have a decent sized (say 25gb) root partition, then put the rest into /home, or... what should I create? And sorry to say, but please suggest
[15:25] <daychilde> 320g hd and this is a old POS from 2007, so 32-bit...
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> nbusrone ok,but is your / on a separate partition?
[15:27] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : what do you mean ? /home ?
[15:28] <kasad> aloha
[15:28] <kasad> Guys, I'm suddenly having spare 100GB partition that I would like to mount as /home
[15:29] <kasad> do I just mount it temporarily, rsync it, then edit fstab and reboot
[15:29] <kasad> considering that my home dir is encrypted
[15:29] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : sorry for a newbie question . root at sda3
[15:29] <MonkeyDust> nbusrone  yes, are / and home on separate partitions?
[15:29] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : home and / are in a same partition
[15:30] <MonkeyDust> nbusrone  then copying / would be copying your complete installation
[15:32] <kasad> any ideas guys?
[15:33] <kasad> does home being encrypted can botch my attempt to reformat now unused ntfs partition to ext4 and mount it  as /home
[15:33] <kasad> (i was thinking, format (already done, ext4), mount somewhere as temphome or whatevz
[15:33] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : ? , I wonder do I need to change anything ? possible as simple as tar.bz the whole / and format the sda3 , extract the tar.bz into sda6 , run live cd update grub , at terminal ( do I need to edit the UDID ) ?
[15:33] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> On a clean Ubuntu Server 14.04 that I just get-apt update && get-apt upgrade. Do I install SSH in order to telnet into the server?
[15:33] <kasad> rsync real home to it, edit fstab, reboot and profit
[15:34] <kasad> amirite?
[15:34] <kasad> you install sshd(aemon) in order to "telnet" into server via encrypted connection
[15:35] <copswin> Tobbe-82|Reinsta: whay
[15:35] <MonkeyDust> nbusrone  never tried it, my advice: backup, then try that plan
[15:35] <kasad> always use ssh, ignore telnet, I don't use telnet even on my local network :P
[15:35] <cpika> Tobbe-82|Reinsta: there's #ubuntu-server with a better chance to help you out
[15:35] <nbusrone> MonkeyDust : ok Thanks :)
[15:35] <kaste> hello, I am having several issues with my new ubuntu installation. first of all it recognizes mz alt as an alt-gr which is a big issue because it bars me from using several commands that I really need (like switching irc channels)
[15:35] <copswin> MonkeyDust: sure
[15:36] <kaste> second when I suspend the laptop I lose my keyboard on the X11
[15:36] <kasad> guys, anyone with an idea if encrypted /home will affect my plan
[15:36] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> Copswin what do you hope to gain by sending me a private mess where you are rude?
[15:36] <kaste> I tried working around that by restarting lightdm but that made me lose permission to fiddle with the wireless configuration
[15:37] <SchrodingersScat> kasad: that's a good question, I'm not sure myself.  I'm not sure if I would transfer it encrypted and then change the mount and see if ubuntu fills in the blanks, but either way you should do backups now.
[15:37] <copswin> Tobbe-82|Reinsta: I an a person not a
[15:38] <kasad> SchrodingersScat: thanks, btw is there a way to unencrypt home? actually lemme google it
[15:38] <SchrodingersScat> !info openssh-server | Tobbe-82|Reinsta
[15:38] <Caleb--> how do i unmount '/' in the recovery mode? i need to resize the filesystem and `umount /` doesn't seem to work
[15:39] <Tobbe-82|Reinsta> copswin << I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve by sending unrespectful private messages to me.    I need to fix it to read UUID's so I can boot ><
[15:42] <copswin> clausen: is it a RW disk.
[15:43] <EriC^^> Caleb--: you're not supposed to resize a mounted partition
[15:43] <clausen> copswin, The disk is a DVD+R.  Ultimately, I'd like to disable any kind of multisession on it (for security reasons)
[15:43] <copswin> The OPS must be on vacation. A lot of vulgar language directed about me.
[15:43] <Caleb--> EriC^^, ext supports online resizing
[15:43] <clausen> copswin, but I can't get Windows to see it at all yet!  (it looks like a blank disk to windows)
[15:43] <Caleb--> EriC^^, in fact, it wanted me to mount the partition
[15:44] <copswin> clausen: a video or data disk
[15:44] <EriC^^> https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/ext4grow.html
[15:45] <clausen> copswin, data
[15:45] <EriC^^> Caleb--: unmounted seems to be in italics
[15:45] <copswin> Who uses DVD any more. Usb.
[15:48] <Caleb--> EriC^^, yes, when *decreasing* the size of the partition
[15:48] <david543> I need help. I just install 14.10 and i am having internet issues. My internet speed will gradually get slower over the course about 10 mins then disconnect. The only way for it to work again is to restart the machine. I am connecting view ethernet.
[15:48] <Caleb--> EriC^^,  i only needed to grow
[15:49] <clausen> david543, wireless?
[15:50] <david543> clausen: ethernet
[15:50] <clausen> david543, weird, it sounds like a driver problem (which wireless is more prone to)
[15:50] <david543> clausen: although I have wireless on the machine and it will do the same thing. I don't think its a driver issue. They are detected correctly.
[15:50] <david543> clausen: Both do the exact same thing.
[15:50] <clausen> david543, does restarting networking, unloading/reloading drivers, etc. help?
[15:51] <david543> clausen: It won't be unable to reconnect to the network.
[15:51] <clausen> david543, even before your 10min are up?
[15:51] <david543> clausen: Only restarting the machine. Not sure exactly. Its not exactly 10 mins it varies
[15:51] <david543> clausen: once I disconnect I can't reconnect
[15:52] <david543> clausen:
[15:52] <david543> clausen:I don't know if its relevant, I am also having issues with my bootloader/uefi
[15:52] <clausen> david543, I would try to debug this by trying to find the simplest thing that would kill your internet
[15:53] <clausen> for example, does shutting down the wireless also kill the wire connection?
[15:53] <clausen> what about the loopback device?
[15:53] <clausen> changing routing rules?
[15:53] <david543> clausen: I have no idea how to do that.
[15:53] <david543> clausen: Um, like only once can connect at a time.
[15:53] <david543> *one
[15:54] <clausen> on the command line, what happens if you do:  pkill -9 NetworkManager
[15:54] <clausen> (could be a Network Manager bug)
[15:54] <unicorn437> hello there, I'm running into issues accessing my newly created user. I can use su in the terminal to login to him, when I logout/reboot it doesnt accept the password however
[15:54] <david543> clausen: One sec, I will try that.
[15:57] <mikeirc> Plz, I have problems installing ia32-libs on ubuntu 14.04. Without it, teamviewer and google-earth can't be installed
[15:58] <david543> clausen: System Problem Dectected. Do you want to report this problem?
[15:58] <clausen> david543, please skip that
[15:59] <clausen> david543, (it's probably just reacting to us unceremoniously killing NetworkManager)
[15:59] <clausen> david543, did it affect your network connectivity
[15:59] <clausen> ?
[16:00] <david543> clausen: Sorry Not sure, yet, working on it. I am having Kernel Errors
[16:00] <david543> clausen: Kernel Oops, soft lockup cpu#3 Stuck for 22s (Xorg:1647)
[16:01] <clausen> david543, it sounds like you have Bigger Problems than just networking
[16:01] <clausen> david543, networking is probably just one of the symptoms
[16:01] <clausen> david543, I would look in /var/log/syslog for error messages that might give a hint about the problem
[16:01] <david543> clausen: What should I do?
