[08:56] <gnumdk> Hello
[08:57] <gnumdk> Is there appmenu-gtk or appmenu-qt maintainers in the place ?
[09:04] <popey> gnumdk, I don't think so.. wassup?
[09:15] <JohnnyWho> I would like to download the source code of unity, in order to port it to my Gentoo OS.
[10:42] <luke-nz> Evening all (11pm NZ time)
[10:43] <luke-nz> anyone about?
[10:44] <luke-nz> no help required, basically I just wanted to take the opportunity to say how good I think unity is
[10:45] <luke-nz> I'll see if I can send an email or something :) Anyway, awesome job!
[19:31] <keturn> I'm on a mission.  this g_varint_parse leaks, and I want it not to so I can run indicator-multiload without murdering.  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dbusmenu-team/dbusmenu/trunk/view/head:/libdbusmenu-glib/server.c#L979
[19:32] <keturn> but this gvariant stuff is all new since I last worked in glib, and I'm rusty
[19:33] <keturn> JKL said some stuff about it in https://bugs.launchpad.net/dbusmenu/+bug/784808
[19:40] <keturn> I guess I should try running trunk just in case, I'm using the source package from precise at the moment
[19:55] <mhr3> seems fixed in the code you linked to
[20:12]  * keturn tries to figure out which way is up
[20:12] <keturn> it looks like trunk0.6 has more patches than trunk
[20:13] <keturn> I suspect http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dbusmenu-team/dbusmenu/trunk.0.6/revision/362.4.1
[21:04] <gotwig> hello, unity-greeter devs here?
[21:05] <gotwig> there were problems with the textcursor for the position in the past
[21:05] <gotwig> do you know which file handles that in unity-greeterß
[21:05] <gotwig> *?
[21:53] <keturn> posted some notes to https://bugs.launchpad.net/dbusmenu/+bug/956810 .  not sure where to go from there.
[22:24] <bkerensa> hello
[22:24] <mhall119> bkerensa: yo
[22:25] <mhall119> so, you need (IIRC) 3 files to make this work properly
[22:25] <mhall119> the executable itself, the dbus .service file, and a descriptive .scope file
[22:26] <mhall119> bkerensa: this uses davidcalle's utilities lens?
[22:26] <bkerensa> mhall119: correct
[22:26] <bkerensa> :)
[22:27] <bkerensa> and if we want Unity on a screen in front of a lot of people in a hour I need to test it
[22:27] <bkerensa> :D
[22:27] <mhall119> ok, so the .scope file tells Unity the name and dbus connection info
[22:27] <mhall119> you need a unique DBusName and DBusPath
[22:28] <bkerensa> ok
[22:28] <mhall119> then the .scope file needs to be copied to /usr/share/lenses/utilities/(whatever).scope
[22:28] <mhall119> assuming /usr/share/lenses/utilities/ where david's lens exists
[22:28] <bkerensa> is not cities-test
[22:28] <bkerensa> :)
[22:28] <bkerensa> is now*
[22:29] <mhall119> ok, so having the .scope file in the lens directory tells the lens to use it
[22:29] <mhall119> but Unity needs to connect to it over dbus, which means we need to tell dbus how to run it
[22:29] <bkerensa> mhall119: /usr/share/lenses/utilities/ <-- does not exist
[22:30] <mhall119> what is under lenses/ ?
[22:30] <bkerensa> nothing
[22:30] <mhall119> do you have david's lens installed?
[22:30] <bkerensa> no
[22:30] <bkerensa> I just branched his code
[22:30] <mhall119> sorry. /usr/share/unity/lenses/
[22:30] <mhall119> ok, it'll be easier to install his lens form his .debs, than to manually copy them too
[22:31] <mhall119> and you need this working in an hour?
[22:31] <bkerensa> mhall119: sure :)
[22:31] <bkerensa> but he doesnt have a quantal deb
[22:31] <bkerensa> :)
[22:32] <mhall119> :/
[22:32] <mhall119> ok, so what files are in his branch?
[22:32] <bkerensa> mhall119: .scope etc the whole source package
[22:33] <mhall119> a .lens?
[22:33] <bkerensa> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~davidc3/onehundredscopes/cities-precise/files
[22:33] <bkerensa> nope
[22:33] <bkerensa> just a .scope
[22:33] <bkerensa> I modified http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~davidc3/onehundredscopes/cities-precise/view/head:/src/unity-scope-cities
[22:33] <bkerensa> so that it uses mapquest instead
[22:33] <bkerensa> and changed the icons
[22:35] <mhall119> ok, YOU need http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~davidc3/onehundredscopes/utilities-precise/files
[22:35] <mhall119> that's the lens your scope will run in
[22:35] <bkerensa> ok
[22:35] <mhall119> you *should* be able to bzr builddeb it, then dpkg -i
[22:37] <mhall119> then, really, you can bzr builddeb your modified cities-precise branch too
[22:37] <mhall119> undo any changes you made to file names or dbus names
[22:37] <mhall119> and it should be installable
[22:42] <bkerensa> mhall119:  so that branch you shared does not have the source code for the cities portion
[22:42] <mhall119> no, lenses and scopes can be in separate code
[22:43] <bkerensa> ok
[22:43] <mhall119> scopes need a lens though
[22:43] <bkerensa> so I am now confused
[22:43] <mhall119> the scope you're modifying uses the utilities lens
[22:43] <bkerensa> ok
[22:43] <bkerensa> so why do I need utilities source package?
[22:43] <bkerensa> :)
[22:43] <mhall119> mhr3 made a nice graphic here: http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/lenses-and-scopes/
[22:44] <mhall119> you need the utilities lens installed, your modified cities scope needs it there
[22:44] <bkerensa> ah
[22:44] <mhall119> Dash->Lens->Scope is how it works
[22:44] <bkerensa> yes
[22:44] <mhall119> for a scope to put results into the dash, it needs a lens
[22:44] <bkerensa> So the scope how do I build it and install it?
[22:44] <mhall119> your scope needs the Utilities lens
[22:44] <bkerensa> and can I install utilities from ppa?
[22:45] <mhall119> https://launchpad.net/~scopes-packagers/+archive/ppa is the ppa
[22:46] <bkerensa> kk
[22:46] <mhall119> https://launchpad.net/~scopes-packagers/+archive/ppa/+files/unity-lens-utilities_0.1-0~7~precise1_all.deb is the deb
[22:47] <bkerensa> I am on quantal
[22:47] <bkerensa> =/
[22:47] <mhall119> then, in your bzr branch for the cities scope, run "debuild -us -uc" and it should make a .deb file in the parent directory
[22:47] <mhall119> it should still work
[22:47] <mhall119> precise->quantal didn't have an API break that I'm aware of
[22:52] <bkerensa> mhall119: ok utilities installed... cities built and installed
[22:52] <bkerensa> so it should now be in the dash or do I need to restart unity?
[22:53] <mhall119> restart unity, alt-f2 then "unity --replace"
[22:55] <bkerensa> mhall119: I do not see the lens in dash
[22:55] <mhall119> ls /usr/share/unity/lenses/utilities/
[22:56] <bkerensa> yes I see the files
[22:57] <bkerensa> mhall119:  ^
[22:57] <mhall119> both utilities.lens and cities.scope?
[22:57] <bkerensa> yes
[22:58] <mhall119> oh, right, the utilities lens isn't displayed, it works from the Home lens
[22:58] <bkerensa> mhall119: hmm?
[22:58] <mhall119> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~davidc3/onehundredscopes/utilities-precise/view/head:/utilities.lens has Visible=false
[22:58] <mhall119> which means it doesn't display an icon in the lens bar at the bottom
[22:58] <bkerensa> AHH IT WORKS
[22:58] <bkerensa> ok man thanks
[22:58] <bkerensa> :)
[22:59] <mhall119> \o/
[22:59] <bkerensa> If my hack works I get $600 :)
[22:59] <bkerensa> lol
[22:59] <bkerensa> I didnt add that part in did I :)
[22:59] <mhall119> then you owe me a beer
[22:59] <bkerensa> and David
[22:59] <bkerensa> :D
[22:59] <mhall119> :)
[23:01] <mhall119> bkerensa: did you know there's a SUMO scope for the Help lens?

[18:33] <trinikrono> hello bugsquad if a reporter has intermittent boot issues what package can i file this against the kernel?
[18:34] <trinikrono> bug 701060 for reference
[18:34] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 701060 in ubuntu "Boot failure (affects: 1) (heat: 74)" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/701060
[19:05] <charlie-tca> trinikrono: either plymouth or upstart. If the reporter turns off "quiet splash" in /etc/default/grub, does the issue remain. If it does, it should be upstart. If turning off "quiet splash" does make the issue go away, plymouth is the package
[19:05] <trinikrono> charlie-tca: i asked him to do a bootchart
[19:05] <trinikrono> and he emailed me the picture is there anything i look for ?
[19:06] <charlie-tca> that won't determine the package, though.
[19:06] <charlie-tca> there should be a list of what happens, including the times spent on each item. find the one taking too much time
[19:06] <trinikrono> at first charlie-tca i was asking the reporter to try the quiet splash but then he said he was not getting the menu
[19:07] <charlie-tca> he doesn't need the menu. You can go to /etc/default/grub and edit the line to remove "quiet splash"
[19:08] <charlie-tca> since the computer does work most of the time, that is a way to edit grub without using the grub menu
[19:08] <trinikrono> ok i will go that road
[19:12] <charlie-tca> after editing that file, he must use "sudo update-grub" in a terminal to make it take effect
[19:15] <trinikrono> charlie-tca: is this a common problem with upstart?
[19:15] <trinikrono> where sometimes it freezes on boot
[19:16] <charlie-tca> This is a not uncommon issue with both upstart and plymouth
[19:17] <charlie-tca> sometimes with parallel processing during boot, things collide, causing the boot to fail
[19:18] <trinikrono> charlie-tca: is that documented on a wiki anywhere?
[19:20] <charlie-tca> I have no idea. It is a bug, but low priority

[12:31] <DarioLap> Hi all. I have 15.04 version. from today my desktop is always completely gray without icons. I tried several times to reboot but nothing.
[12:31] <DarioLap> Any ideas to fix it?
[12:33] <bekks> You need to upgrade to 15.10, since 15.04 is EOL.
[12:33] <DarioLap> ok bekks now i try
[16:08] <Pavel_> Hi, what can I do to fix screen glitch and garbled text  , issue that I encounter on some Linux distributions among which is Ubuntu and its' flavors , 14.04 + later and PCLOS, Fedora, Mageia ?
[16:13] <Pavel_> I'm now Debian Stretch (unstable, testing) with LXQT and I get no screen glitch and garbled, broken text.........
[16:16] <Pavel_> My graphics card is Intel G31/G33 , 256 / 312 MB , onboard ..................
[16:18] <Pavel_> My issue looks something like this but worse, https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B28z0HPgJfNHMDJvaUdkTkJ1OTg/edit?pref=2&pli=1
[16:19] <Pavel_> Hello
[16:19] <Pavel_> -_-
[16:22] <Pavel_> nobody is here
[16:22] <bekks> Which is a wtong assumption according to "/names".

[16:37] <wodian> anyone know how to speedup the docky app (animations and such)
[18:26] <DarioLap>  Hi all. I have 15.10 version. from today my desktop is always completely gray without icons. I tried several times to reboot but nothing.

[20:08] <Niilos> Hello all. I just upgrade my old xubuntu and after a restart I lost all my desktop shortcut and clicking the menu display an error like "fail loading menu file at line 1 char 1, document was empty or was containig spaces" (translated from my language)
[20:11] <Niilos> I have xubuntu 12.04
[21:33] <xubuntu25w> Hi hello everybody,
[21:34] <xubuntu25w> I think I have discovered a bug and would like to learn how to address it.
[21:34] <xubuntu25w> I am using Xubuntu mainly over a XRDP remote connection.
[21:35] <xubuntu25w> Over that connection the gnome policy-kit seems not to work
[21:36] <knome> which xubuntu version are you using?
[21:36] <xubuntu25w> Whenever I am at the computer directly I can start the software center, when I am logged over XRDP not.
[21:36] <xubuntu25w> I am using 14.04 afaik.
[21:37] <knome> what does "lsb_release -a" in terminal say?
[21:38] <xubuntu25w> 14.04 LTS
[21:38] <knome> ok
[21:38] <knome> the regular way to submit bugs (with related information) is simply: "ubuntu-bug packagename" in terminal
[21:39] <knome> figuring out the package name in this case might be a bit hard, but give your best choice, and developers will likely find out what's causing the issue
[21:39] <xubuntu25w> I'll try ubuntu-bug xrdp?
[21:40] <xubuntu25w> must first install it...
[21:40] <knome> i don't really know, sorry... i don't use rdp myself
[21:42] <xubuntu25w> don't apologize, maybe i'm one of the few idiots to do so ;-)
[21:43] <knome> there are people who ask something about rdp now and then, so you're definitely not the only one
[21:45] <xubuntu25w> I have started -finally- the long awaited upgrade since i have discovered that it worked from the direct access, so im ust wait for it to finish.
[21:53] <DrCool> How can I output terminal output to a file and also see the output in the terminal?   the > command will send it to a file but I can't see it on the terminal.
[21:55] <DrCool> seems like "tee" might do that
[21:56] <knome> yes, "command | tee -a file", but you'll lose some formatting on the command
[21:56] <knome> (to see what i mean, try with "ls")
[21:59] <DrCool> great, I did that and it seem to be working exactly like i had hoped.
[21:59] <DrCool> thanks knome
[21:59] <knome> np
[23:51] <desertwolf> Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help me in determing what OUTGOING port I need to open to allow my networked printer to print. I block both incoming and out going connections using UFW. My printer works fine when I allow outgoing connections but as soon as I deny them it can't connect
[23:51] <DrCool> you are trying to connect from the internet?
[23:52] <pleia2> DrCool: you probably want 631
[23:52] <desertwolf> I've tried ports for CUPS and other protocols to no avail. It's a brother MFC9340cdw printer :p
[23:52] <erick_> Hi, I also have question. Logical Volume can make gaming PC faster correct?
[23:52] <desertwolf> Is over LAN
[23:52] <pleia2> erick_: I don't see how
[23:52] <bekks> erick_: Not necessarily.
[23:53] <erick_> Let's say I would use two HDs.
[23:53] <desertwolf> And yes I've tried 631
[23:54] <erick_> I thought we would have more reading and writing power.
[23:54] <pleia2> erick_: no, it's an abstraction so if anything it makes thing slower
[23:54] <pleia2> erick_: I think you may be thinking of RAID :)
[23:54] <pleia2> if you're using RAID0 across two disks, it's a bit faster
[23:54] <mjh000000> Top notch distro
[23:54] <erick_> but data would be gathered in more than one disk.
[23:54] <bekks> erick_: Thats just what you thought.
[23:55] <bekks> erick_: It strongly depends on the layout of your LVM.
[23:56] <erick_> I see.
[23:56] <erick_> You will need raid....
[23:56] <pleia2> yep
[23:56] <bekks> Most likely.
[23:58] <erick_> Now, if one day I created such LVM with RAID, will wine be benefit from such LVM?
[23:59] <erick_> or WINE would just choose a disk.
[23:59] <pleia2> LVM makes it easy to adjust partition sizes and add new ones as you need them
[23:59] <desertwolf> Does anyone know of way to view what processes are trying to connect using a specifc port for setting up a firewall for outgoing connections?
[23:59] <knome> tbh, if you are looking for a top-performance gaming pc, i'm not sure i would set up linux and wine
[23:59] <pleia2> but wine directly wouldn't really do anything

[19:14] <Beldar> mark06, you can go to edit in the software center than software sources go to second tab other software and tick or untick repos.
[19:16] <mark06> Beldar: done already, not there, did apt get update too, nothing, software center still displays there ghost repos
[19:16] <mark06> it's some cache it seeems, not sure where
[19:16] <Beldar> steeph, might just be a corrupted table, strange it shows in windows but not in ubuntu is all.
[19:17] <Beldar> mark06, Can you define this better I never use that app, " software center still displays there ghost repos"
[19:18] <Beldar> mark06, I think what your issue is that the software center may show stuff not available without a specific repo open, is this correct?
[19:20] <steeph> Beldar: But shouldn't it show in Ubuntu regardless of the table?  That's what I find strange. Even the BIOS/UEFI doesn't show it after Ubuntu was booted.
[19:22] <Beldar> steeph, That would be my assumption, however you only have one gpt HD as of now that we can see, gpt comes with that UEFI setup in windows installs. I think what is going on is the voodoo that you have done to have a msdos on one HD and gpt on another and a msdos install has just muddied things up, I would have no way myself in knowing how to get to the bottom of this.
[19:24] <trijntje> I just installed steam on ubuntu but it hangs 'updating steam' at 0kb. Why is it trying to update itself when I just installed the latest version from the repository, and why is it hanging?
[19:25] <Beldar> mark06, It might help to go through repo info in general. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuSoftwareCenter  Honestly your goal is a strange one and makes no sense here. ;)
[19:25] <mark06> Beldar: it is showing repos in repo list that doesn't exist in apt database (/etc/apt...)
[19:25] <mark06> Beldar: is it clear now
[19:26] <Guido1> Is there an enery manager which llows to set up until how much the battery of a latop is charged, because i herad that it is better not to charge 100%
[19:26] <Beldar> mark06, What repo list?
[19:26] <mark06> Beldar: not even the repo manager gui (edit > source repos...) shows the repo, only software center does
[19:26] <Beldar> mark06, So you are set?
[19:26] <mark06> Beldar: I'm sorry but have you ever used it? if you don't know it....
[19:27] <mark06> Beldar: software center is an app manager just like apt or aptitude or synaptic
[19:28] <mark06> Beldar: and it's not working, it's listing repos that have been removed from apt db way long back
[19:28] <steeph> Beldar: The GPT one came with the PC with Windows on it. That's the only reason why it's GPT. Right now I only use the data partition of it. But the problem persists without that disk. I didn't know I shouldn't use both on different disks. I never had a GPT disk before.
[19:28] <mark06> is itclear now?
[19:28] <Beldar> mark06, Sorry read that as is clear. No the syntax you use is really confusing and to generalized, and he software center is a basic app, I know enough to understand it, kit is just a apt-get gui.
[19:28] <Beldar> mark06, All I can say is prove that point somehow.
[19:29] <mark06> Beldar: would you kindly add me to your /ignore list? please, *I mean it*
[19:29] <OerHeks> mark06, make a screenshot please
[19:29] <mark06> OerHeks: ok a sec, I'm trying to purge it....
[19:29] <Beldar> mark06, done at my pleasure, dealing with inexperienced users is a hassle anyway. ;)
[19:30] <Beldar> and people who externalize blame
[19:30] <mark06> OerHeks: first time it said it would remove ubuntu-desktop as well so I canceled it in the middle, but not now... reinstalled and will just try
[19:30]  * mark06 cross fingers
[19:31] <Munster> mark06, a quick fix is to open the /etc/apt/sources.list with user permissions and place a # in front of said repos, then save the file and do an sudo apt-get update.
[19:32] <OerHeks> Munster, but that fix won't work, as PPA's are stored as a txt file in /etc/apr/sources.list.d folder
[19:32] <OerHeks> ppa-purge looks there
[19:32] <mark06> Munster: I grep'ed for a repo's substring on /etc, everything was gone.... found matches only on sources.d or the like (an include dir, can't recall exact name)
[19:33] <Munster> OerHeks, oh should have scrolled up..din't realize it it's a ppa
[19:33] <OerHeks> unless he did add it the old way, then ppa purge cannot do anything
[19:33] <mark06> OMG!  not even purging software-center fixed it!!!!
[19:33] <Dwarf> Why doesn't ubuntu have irssi 0.8.16?
[19:34] <Munster> mark06, open the /etc/apt/sources.list.d and remove the ppa , perhaps
[19:35] <Pici> Dwarf: because it was released in May.
[19:35] <Dwarf> Your point being?
[19:35] <Beldar> steeph, I have not had the pleasure/pain of a UEFI bios as of yet. The manufacturers have their own versions of it and the safe boot so it is a bit of a conundrum for some. I did do a W8.1 reinstall on a friends computer (UEFI) easily done but no linux on it.
[19:35] <Pici> Dwarf: Ubuntu packages are rarely updated after release unless they are major security updates.
[19:35] <Pici> !latest | Dwarf
[19:36] <Dwarf> Are bugfixes not security updates
[19:37] <trijntje> Dwarf: only if the affect security ;)
[19:37] <Dwarf> Eh, I suppose in a way
[19:37] <Dwarf> I can't find any decent PPA's, the one I found has terrorist speech on it
[19:38] <steeph> Beldar: Yeah, I got to know some of the UEFI problems. I just disable secure boot and also got rid of some problems by running legacy mode.
[19:39] <mark06> Dwarf: which one???
[19:39] <Dwarf> mark06, you keep yourself busy with your issue mate
[19:40] <mark06> why
[19:44] <jhutchins> Dwarf: THat's not how irc works.
[19:45] <CPR_Dummy> Dwarf: do you play DF
[19:45] <Dwarf> No
[19:45] <Dwarf> I do forget how to navigate hexchat properly
[19:45] <Dwarf> If that counts
[19:46] <CPR_Dummy> use weechat
[19:46] <Dwarf> hahaha
[19:46] <Dwarf> Never
[19:46] <Dwarf> I'll spend too much time making it look like irssi
[19:47] <penk> hey folks, i'm looking for a simple way to enable / disable unattended-upgrades temporarily.  this'll probably be driven by puppet, so a simple command / update / config file change would be best.
[19:47] <penk> i just want it to Not Run. :)
[19:48] <penk> but be able to be re-enabled easily
[19:48] <holstein> penk: i just disable, and run updates manually.. then, you wont have to enable with a command.. you just upgrade
[19:48] <penk> holstein: how are you disabling?
[19:49] <rbennacer> hey guys, i am trying to use MP4Box and i have a problem with the file name
[19:49] <luist_> hey guys… can i run such commands in postinst when creating a new deb package? http://paste.ofcode.org/ycbXvi9DNjjv8kXjB77VyX
[19:49] <rbennacer> any idea how i can solve it withouth hanging the filename http://pastebin.com/5ZNKaMyE
[19:49] <holstein> penk: i typically just dont enable.. http://askubuntu.com/questions/9/how-do-i-enable-automatic-updates
[19:50] <djQuery_> all of a sudden my title bars and XChat are all scrampled. Video card?
[19:50] <holstein> penk: otherwise, i poke around in whatever GUIs and services, and remove any automated updates..
[19:50] <penk> heh
[19:50] <holstein> djQuery_: nothing about ubuntu scrambles those..
[19:50] <penk> okay, i need a cleaner approach.  i'll keep digging, thanks.
[19:50] <penk> (i need to do this with dozens of servers in an automated way)
[19:51] <vince007> Hey guys
[19:51] <aledzadza> Hello :)
[19:51] <vince007> What is this all about?
[19:52] <jhutchins> djQuery_: Probably a problem with the toolkit libraries.  Which release?  What video hardware.  Unity?  Gnome?
[19:52] <jhoneyber> Hola
[19:52] <jhoneyber> Soy de venezuela
[19:53] <rbennacer> jhutchins, not sure it is
[19:53] <penk> holstein: aha!  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic : APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";
[19:53] <rbennacer> jhutchins, it seems like the parenthesis are causing the problem in the output filename
[19:53] <penk> change that to 0
[19:53] <djQuery_> holstein: its wierd the body of browsers works fine same with the tabs. but menues and such are just hosed
[19:53] <djQuery_> damit even terminal
[19:54] <minos__1> Hello, is there a need to upgrade the version of OpenVPN that ships with 14.04?
[19:54] <Slurpino> hello all
[19:54] <minos__1> it comes with 2.3.2 which is aparently vulnerable to heartbleed, what can be done about this?
[19:55] <djQuery_> jhutchins: I am on 14.04
[19:56] <jhutchins> minos__1: It's been patched, see the release notes.
[19:56] <jhutchins> minos__1: There's a change in a minor part of the version number, that's how almost every distribution handled it.
[19:56] <minos__1> jhutchins: It says built on Feb  4 2014
[19:57] <Pici> minos__1: What makes you think it is vulnerable to heartbleed?
[19:58] <djQuery_> jhutchins: just format and reinstall likely fix it? the only thing usable is the nav bar and browser
[19:59]  * mark06 pĺays dirty with software-center
[20:00] <MonkeyDust> isnt heartbleed old news? is there no new paranoia yet?
[20:00] <minos__1> Pici: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7598616
[20:00] <ygorabreu> Hi guys. I'm not very familiar with ubuntu, so i wanted a simple way to make a live-usb iniciating my countrie's language and some other apps... is there a simple way, since remastersys is not available anymore?
[20:01] <CPR_Dummy> can you do a net install
[20:01] <minos__1> was only Access Server vulnerable?
[20:02] <CPR_Dummy> ygorabreu:
[20:02] <bprompt> ygorabreu:     for offline installs?
[20:03] <CPR_Dummy> bprompt: quit copying me brah
[20:03] <ygorabreu> bprompt: yes..instaling by usb
[20:03] <jhutchins> djQuery_: I've had the fonts mess up, stayed that way for a while then routine updates fixed it.
[20:04] <jhutchins> djQuery_: Yeah, same thing you describe, all the menus and titlebars were messed up.
[20:04] <Pici> minos__1: Heartbleed was because of an openssl vulnerability, not one actually in openvpn.  The version of openssl that that post is the version available before the fix.
[20:04] <djQuery_> jhutchins: this was working fine then closed xchat and reopened it and all of a sudden cant read it anymore
[20:04] <minos__1> oh i see, I didnt know if it was linked or not, thanks
[20:04] <mark06> minos__1: I don't remember the exact versions affected but I think it's from 1.0.1 on... it's very unlikely that it's not patched already.... but there were more flaws discovered after that.... also probably patched as well... just check the dependency on openssl and what version is it....
[20:05] <jhutchins> djQuery_: reboot, check for updates.  Cross your fingers.
[20:05] <djQuery_> jhutchins: did apply whatever updates cameout yesterday
[20:05] <minos__1> thanks Pici and mark06
[20:05] <Guido1> Hello, I would like to know more about the charging limits of batterys like mentioned in http://support.lenovo.com/en_NL/diagnose-and-fix/detail.page?DocID=HT078208 (the percentages) and how to set that up in (x)ubuntu
[20:05] <mark06> minos__1: http://heartbleed.com -- "What versions of the OpenSSL are affected?"
[20:06] <mark06> too late :-/
[20:06] <lyy> test
[20:06] <lyy> hello
[20:06] <mark06> test has been started, formatting computer in 15 mins... please save your work
[20:07] <lyy> is there a way disable sudo for 1 user?
[20:07] <Pici> lyy: remove them from the sudo/admin group.
[20:07] <lyy> gpasswd -d <username> admin ?
[20:08] <ki7mt> lyy, sudo deluser <username< sudo
[20:08] <_1_Jackiechan242> Hey
[20:08] <code1o6> so is there an easy way to install gcc-4.9 into ubuntu 14.04?

[20:08] <lyy> but i want the user to be able to do admin work
[20:08] <bprompt> ygorabreu:    you can do that using the .iso for ubuntu, just grab the iso, burn it to a usb, give it some room for "persistent storage"   boot with it, install install stuff, set your settings, when you shutdown all changes and installed apps are kept in the "persistent storage" area in the usb
[20:08] <_1_Jackiechan242> m or f
[20:08] <_1_Jackiechan242> kik
[20:08] <_1_Jackiechan242> Hey kik m or f
[20:08] <ki7mt> lyy, you want to remove them from the sudo group, but still do admin work?
[20:09] <asturel> anyone knows why is this happen? http://eeew.tk/u/WQ9qEg.png
[20:09] <lyy> ki7mt: yes
[20:09] <lyy> sounds like i need to remove sudo
[20:09] <ki7mt> lyy, can you expand on admin work a bit
[20:09] <asturel> basicly application becomes 'invisible' until i didnt click on them
[20:09] <bprompt> ygorabreu:     ... wait... that keeps the live-session... change... it won't install them to on a fresh install
[20:10] <lyy> i want to have a user do admin work without having to type sudo all the type
[20:10] <lyy> i have a system that deploys 1 script to many different linux distro flavors
[20:10] <ygorabreu> bprompt: yeah..exactly.. i want this "live usb" to have all the apps and languages i add..
[20:11] <lyy> i want to only have to make changes to 1 script
[20:11] <lyy> most systems do not use sudo
[20:12] <ki7mt> lyy, I dont know what systems are "most" .. but Ubuntu uses sudo. If you want a single package on muliple distros, create a package for that particular distro.
[20:13] <lyy> k thanks.
[20:13] <aledzadza> how do i connect to servers with ssl with irssi?
[20:14] <holstein> !freenode | aledzadza
[20:14] <Pici> aledzadza: the -ssl argument to /connect
[20:15] <ki7mt> aledzadza, More info: https://freenode.net/certfp/certfp-irssi.shtml
[20:15] <gpaXding> hello there
[20:16] <bprompt> !uck | ygorabreu
[20:16] <aledzadza> ki7mt: is it diffrent from all servers?
[20:17] <Dave77> how do I edit .ts files on ubuntu? I chopping files down in side
[20:17] <ygorabreu> bprompt: ill give it a try...thanks
[20:17] <bprompt> np
[20:18] <ki7mt> aledzadza, Yes, you need to check the server your connecting too for their specific requirements, the Link was for Freenode
[20:19] <aledzadza> ki7mt: ok thanks alot :)
[20:20] <lamer> hello, first time here and i've had ubuntu server running on a little fit-pc for a bunch of years
[20:20] <gpaXding> I got an external harddisk on usb (sdb) , i did an ntfsresize of the disk ( was initially formatted by a win xp machine ) to shrink its partition size... to give space for another partition and file system. I did a checlk to see how much data it had and shrunk it to a size to fit all data , then used fdisk to delet and set new partition size to slightly igger than the ntfs resize size ( as someone sugested on the web, set it to partition typ
[20:20] <gpaXding> e 7... and wrotew to the partition table... still the system seems not able to mount the partitions sayiong missing ntfs signature ... im pretty sure ntfsresiize did its jkob so im intressted in figurei ng how to manage to fix the last step so the partition can be mounted again
[20:20] <lamer> i'm on 10.04.4 LTS but that's as far as my cpu will let me upgrade
[20:22] <gpaXding> any suggestion what to do next to finish the shrink job ?
[20:23] <ki7mt> lamer, what hardware are us using?
[20:23] <maddawg2> ok fascinating problem...   I cant get ubuntu to properly resolve windows host names
[20:23] <Beldar> lamer, Not supported unless a server is all, I suspect you can run a lighter dektop and upgrade.
[20:23] <lamer> is there a good reason to keep updating when I get "linux-generic linux-image-generic"
[20:23] <lamer> being held back
[20:23] <lamer> i cant quite tell what it will upgrade
[20:24] <zykotick9> lamer: use dist-upgrade to get kernel updates!
[20:24] <maddawg2> i've installed Winbind and am able to ping by name and get a response but if I try to nslookup the computer name I get "server cant find <computername>: SERVFAIL
[20:24] <Beldar> lamer, Try dist-upgrade needed for kernels and security upgrades
[20:24] <lamer> thanks zykotick9 i'm just wondering why upgrades continue to be available
[20:24] <lamer> isn't 10.04.4 not supported anymore?
[20:24] <zykotick9> lamer: oh this is the 10.04 box, good luck...
[20:25] <maddawg2> i have two DNS servers and they are set in ubuntu and ubuntu is using them. However the first response I get from my first DNS is Got SERVFAIL reply from <DNS Server IP>
[20:25] <Beldar> lamer, The 10.04 server is still supported not the desktop
[20:25] <lamer> if I want to continue running it should I continue doing the updates?
[20:25] <lamer> ahh ok
[20:25] <lamer> thanks beldar
[20:25] <Beldar> np
[20:25] <lamer> so I should update
[20:26] <lamer> any risks to not updating
[20:26] <lamer> in case something goes wrong?
[20:26] <lamer> or are the risks worse
[20:26] <Beldar> lamer, Try a lubuntu live of 14.04, I bet it will run fine.
[20:27] <Dave77> what DVB TV apps are there for ubuntu?
[20:28] <maddawg2> nvm realized what was happening
[20:28] <lamer> the box I have has a geode processor
[20:28] <maddawg2> i needed the full domain name in there since my ubuntu machine isnt part of the domain
[20:29] <Beldar> lamer, You are not far from no support here is all, so if you want it you may have to adapt is all. check the 10.04 server eol. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases  As of now your desktop has no support, technically you have none here as of now.
[20:30] <k1l> Dave77: just load the channels.conf with vlc, works great
[20:30] <Dave77> VLC is too basic for everyday use
[20:31] <Beldar> lamer, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/xserver-xorg-video-geode your hardware is supported beyond 10.04. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/xserver-xorg-video-geode
[20:31] <Beldar> https://www.google.com/search?q=geode+processor+14.04&btnG=Search&hl=en&gbv=1 lamer
[20:32] <lamer> beldar, what I have is a server not a desktop
[20:32] <lamer> do you mean i cant get much support because of my version?
[20:32] <Beldar> lamer, good than you have till 2015.
[20:32] <lamer> ah great, so I can keep running it
[20:33] <Matml> Hi all.
 do you mean i cant get much support because of my version? You have support here till you are eol
[20:33] <lamer> great thanks beldar
[20:33] <Beldar> lamer, Some as you can tell will not support however it is their option. ;)
[20:34] <ki7mt> lamer, if it's just server, you should try to test 12.04 or even 14.04 server before Apr-2015, as that's when 10.04 server is EOL
[20:34] <jhutchins> Dave77: Compared to what?
[20:34] <lamer> when I try to upgrade it says I can't
[20:34] <lamer> i think its a limitation of my cpu
[20:35] <Dave77> dvbviewer, mytheatre, progdvb etc etc
[20:35] <domsson> Trying to perm-mount shares from my NAS on my 14.04 machine via CIFS. Using the NAS' name (instead of its IP Addr.), I get `mount error: could not resolve address for readynas` when trying the new fstab line via `mount -a`; any idea why?
[20:35] <jhutchins> Dave77: So install one of those.
[20:36] <Dave77> Yes but I don't want to use windoze as my desktop..
[20:36] <Dave77> so I can't understand why there are no good DVB-TV apps on linux..
[20:36] <Dave77> do they want people to use linux or not?
[20:37] <Dave77> so people have to stay on windoze...
[20:37] <Matml> Is anyone free to give me a bit of advice? When I use apt-get I am getting a lot of errors now, all around "ImportError: No module named 'site'". Thanks.
[20:37] <slimalighieri> hello
[20:38] <ki7mt> lamer, if I recall, those CPU's are Natonal/AMD or Cyrix, all of which were under x86 (32bit). I'd have to diggin on the kernel, but
[20:38] <ki7mt> it's should not present too big of an issue.
[20:38] <lamer>  Geode LX 800 is the cpu it says
[20:38] <jhutchins> Dave77: Never heard of mythtv?
[20:39] <Bashing-om> Matml: Sure, there is help . pastebin the outputs of -> sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade <- so we get the errors in context.
[20:39] <jhutchins> !mythtv
[20:39] <lamer> and when I tried to upgrade to the latest it says i am unable
[20:39] <lamer> so i think im stuck with 10.04 until its put to rest
[20:40] <lamer> but i dont mind as its great for just a web server and irc
[20:40] <lamer> basic stuff
[20:41] <lamer> but my original question was should I keep updating
[20:41] <lamer> when it wants to update inux-generic linux-image-generic
[20:41] <lamer> it holds them back
[20:41] <lamer> but should I dist-upgrade
[20:42] <lamer> or would i risk the stability
[20:42] <Matml> Bashing-om: Thanks - update is fine, here is upgrade http://hastebin.com/umeweboqep.vbs and then the install -f option http://hastebin.com/soyisepivi.vbs
[20:42] <zykotick9> !dist-upgrade | lamer
[20:42] <Bashing-om> Matml: Look'n .
[20:42] <ki7mt> lamer, Yes, if you want to upgrade the kernel updates, dist-upgrade.
[20:42] <lamer> ok
[20:42] <lamer> sometimes it has made some programs run flaky
[20:43] <lamer> like bitlbee
[20:44] <lamer> but anyway, thanks you guys are great and i'm looking to add more devices to my ubuntu collection
[20:44] <Matml> Bashing-om: And I also get that same 'No module named 'site'' error coming up when I do a few other things in terminal (such as trying to look at cpufreq with powersave)
[20:44] <Dave77> jhutchins: used mythtv years ago on windows.. didn't think much to it
[20:44] <lamer> so i'll be back
[20:44] <ki7mt> lamer, I see the LX 800 is being run on Arch, Debian and many others. config.guess may be coming back with i586, but the current instruction set supposedly was patched for i686, it should run on later kernels.
[20:45] <lamer> hmm
[20:45] <Dave77> .. not interested in media centre look. are there no other TV apps on linux?
[20:45] <lamer> so should I try to upgrade the kernel on this thing?
[20:45] <lamer> it might give me the "unable to upgrade" message
[20:45] <Dave77> I want to ditch windoze and use desktop linux but the apps are not there
[20:45] <lamer> but i'll let you know what happens
[20:46] <djQuery> jhutchins, well was able to apply any updates via terminal (don't know if anything actually installed couldn't read it) reboot and its working again
[20:46] <djQuery> jhutchins, thanks
[20:49] <Bashing-om> Matml: System not to happy with python3 huh ? .. Let's poke at it and see about --purge/(re-)install. what returns from -> apt-cache policy python3-uno , dpkg -l python3-uno <- ??
[20:50] <ki7mt> Dave77, what app specifically in Windows do need that you can't a comparable app in Ubuntu
[20:51] <ki7mt> can't find ..
[20:51] <Matml> Bashing-om: Thanks! http://hastebin.com/juhagacila.avrasm
[20:51] <Bashing-om> Matml: look'n .
[20:51] <zeak> Hi guys! I try to repair my Win XP boot by boot-repair and testdisk. That's the later boot-repair raport: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7702349/ If someone can help me, thank you...
[20:51] <jhutchins> Dave77: The point is that most of that software was developed on Linux, including mythtv.  Doesn't sound like you have an actual software problem.

[20:56] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, you can use a link (ln -s), you edit your virtual host file to point to magneto-.. .. .. or use .htaccess to redirect, or manually move the files, lots of options, #ubuntu-server is probably best for server config questions.
[20:56] <Bashing-om> Matml: "iFR python3-uno " says we need to work on it to help the package manager. What results -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure python3-uno <- ??
[20:56] <bekks> smokie: for havin an ftp server, you need to install one.
[20:57] <Matml> Bashing-om: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: python3-uno is broken or not fully installed.
[20:57] <smokie> bekks, so like vsftp? or is there something else?
[20:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> ki7mt its easier to just move
[20:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> its far too long to type or bother
[20:57] <bekks> smokie: vsftpd does a pretty good job.
[20:57] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, easy is not always the right choice, but that's up to you as the admin.
[20:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> it would require dividing magento content into two
[20:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I dont think that would even work
[20:58] <smokie> bekks, thanks dude
[20:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> sudo mv magento-whatever/* . doesnt work as it complains about full folders
[20:58] <es> hi, /i've got an intel 7260HMWDTX1 wifi chip and it has issues holding a connection in 14.04
[20:59] <Bashing-om> Matml: OK, Let's bump it up a notch -> sudo apt-get install --reinstall python3-uno <- .
[21:00] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, for example. on my ubuntu-mirror, the data is in /home/<mirror-username>, like 200GB of data, I simply link it to /var/www/ubuntu and all my boxes access the packages from the server that way. Just a thought.
[21:00] <Matml> Bashing-om: Had tried that earlier, just redid and here's the output http://hastebin.com/beqisusigo.vbs
[21:00] <Bashing-om> Matml: look'n .
[21:01] <aledzadza> is there an easy way to get a graph over your network trafic ?
[21:02] <k1l> aledzadza: system load indicator for unity
[21:03] <ki7mt> aledzadza, bmon, iftop, tcptrack, just to name a few.
[21:04] <ki7mt> aledzadza, iptraf is another really nice tool also.
[21:05] <svip> One of my partition devices disappeared!  I can no longer find /dev/sdc1
[21:05] <holstein> svip: partition devices? you mean, a hard drive?
[21:06] <svip> holstein: Basically, yes.
[21:06] <ki7mt> aledzadza, I've not used this one, but it looks cool: Monitorix
[21:06] <zubuntu> hi there
[21:06] <svip> holstein: But I had /dev/sdc1 mounted, suddenly I got an input/output error reading/writing to the disk.
[21:06] <zubuntu> can somebody help me to install openoffice 4.1 pls ?
[21:06] <svip> I then noticed it was gone from /dev
[21:06] <holstein> svip: you can look in "sudo fdisk -l"
[21:07] <zubuntu> i downloaded by the command : wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz
[21:07] <holstein> zubuntu: sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[21:07] <zubuntu> after that when i do this command : tar -xvfz Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz
[21:07] <zubuntu> it gives error no such direction
[21:07] <zubuntu> holstein: no libreoffice
[21:07] <holstein> zubuntu: you want libreoffice, not open office.. its the modern fork, basically, of openoffice
[21:07] <zubuntu> i want openoffice
[21:07] <svip> holstein: Nope, that doesn't list it either.
[21:07] <zubuntu> i know what i want holstein
[21:07] <holstein> zubuntu: libreoffice is actually the one i think you are seeking..
[21:08] <Hammerhead> ARRRGGGG Displaylink drivers in 14.04?? I am staring at 2 monitors both have green screens but for the last day I have been trying to get the config right and still am having trouble. anyone have multiple monitors with displaylink adapters?
[21:08] <zubuntu> can somebody help me to install openoffice pls ?
[21:08] <zubuntu> tar: z: Cannot open: No such file or directory
[21:08] <zubuntu> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[21:08] <zubuntu> error is this
[21:08] <zubuntu> when i try to extract the tar.gz
[21:08] <aledzadza> ki7mt: but can i show it on my homepage?
[21:08] <svip> holstein: I can see my /dev/sda*, /dev/sdb* and /dev/sdd* (which I am not sure what is).
[21:08] <holstein> zubuntu: you will ask the creators and maintainers of the file how to use what they create. otherwise,i suggest a PPA
[21:09] <zubuntu> http://askubuntu.com/questions/471437/unable-to-install-apache-openoffice-4-1-on-ubuntu-14-04
[21:09] <zubuntu> i am trying to do these commands
[21:09] <Bashing-om> Matml: Humm, Let's clean out the archives, remove the control files, and rebuid the data bases -> sudo apt-get clean , sudo rm -fr /var/lib/apt/lists , sudo mkdir -pv /var/lib/apt/lists/partial , sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade <- .
[21:09] <holstein> zubuntu: you really should be using libreoffice.. there is no reason to use openoffice instead, and libreoffice is included in the repos
[21:10] <Bashing-om> rebuild*
[21:10] <holstein> zubuntu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/471437/unable-to-install-apache-openoffice-4-1-on-ubuntu-14-04 does seem to outline how to do it.. thats what i would use
[21:10] <ki7mt> aledzadza, You'd ahve to look at each app, maybe export the data and re-render it, or find web-based tools to pull and render the data your after.
[21:10] <s2013> how do you copy and paste a file?
[21:10] <s2013> am i doing something wrong? i righ tclick and copied a file
[21:10] <s2013> but paste is inactive
[21:10] <svip> holstein: All my other partitions are working fine.
[21:11] <zubuntu> holstein: so which commands are suitable ?
[21:11] <holstein> zubuntu: just download the tarball for your architecture, and you can right click to extract to the .deb.. then, you can click the deb to install
[21:11] <Matml> Bashing-om: Ok, doing!
[21:11] <holstein> zubuntu: they all look "suitable".. though, i prefer, and suggest "sudo apt-get install libreoffice"..
[21:12] <zubuntu> holstein: :p
[21:12] <zubuntu> i think u dont understand me
[21:12] <zubuntu> i am old fashioned a bit
[21:12] <zubuntu> and i want the feel of 10.10
[21:12] <zubuntu> with gnome classic and openoffice
[21:13] <zubuntu> not unity bullshit
[21:13] <zubuntu> or libreoffice
[21:13] <holstein> zubuntu: then, ask for support with the creators of the appication.. which is now, libreoffice
[21:13] <holstein> !language | zubuntu
[21:13] <Matml> Bashing-om: Ok, done! Same output from sudo apt-get upgrade
[21:13] <ki7mt> zubuntu, as holstein said, you should consider using Libreoffice, more info here: http://www.howtogeek.com/187663/openoffice-vs.-libreoffice-whats-the-difference-and-which-should-you-use/
[21:13] <zubuntu> grrrrr
[21:14] <holstein> zubuntu: here at the openoffice ones.. http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.0/binaries/en-US/
[21:14] <zubuntu> guys why dont u just help me to install openoffice pls ?
[21:14] <holstein> zubuntu: i *am*
[21:14] <holstein> zubuntu: but, you misunderstand what libreoffice is. its *is* the openoffice that you seek
[21:14] <holstein> zubuntu: but, if you still want openoffice, which, there is no reason for you to prefer it, you can get it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.0/binaries/en-US/
[21:15] <holstein> zubuntu: if you have issues with the package that they provide, let them konw.. they are not ubuntu packages.. otherwise, download, extract, click on *.deb and install
[21:15] <Darkwell> hello there
[21:15] <zubuntu> hm
[21:16] <zubuntu> m@THINK:~/Downloads/en-US/DEBS$ dpkg -i *.deb
[21:16] <zubuntu> dpkg: error: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[21:16] <zubuntu> huh ?
[21:17] <holstein> zubuntu: yes.. installing applications needs that
[21:17] <domsson> Trying to mounta CIFS share, I get "mount error(95): Operation not supported" which doesn't help me too much. How can I go from here?
[21:17] <domsson> *mount a
[21:17] <holstein> zubuntu: but, you can do *exactly* this.. download the compressed fil you want from http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.0/binaries/en-US/ ..right click and extract it. then, just click on the .deb file
[21:17] <Bashing-om> Matml: Think'n as to the why ... 3rd party software ?? ... lemme check what is supposed to be installed .. I be back.
[21:17] <Matml> Bashing-om: Nothing outside of the software centre.
[21:18] <holstein> zubuntu: you need sudo dpkg above..
[21:18] <zubuntu> holstein: i already downloaded
[21:18] <zubuntu> why cant i do it by command ?
[21:18] <ki7mt> sudo
[21:18] <Darkwell> I got a prob mounting an external usb disk partition (sdb1) , i used ntfsresize and shrunk it to make space for other partitions, ntfsresize shrunk without any errors and i used fdisk to delete old partition table and add new partition alsightly bigger than the ntfsresize size. still Im not able to mount this partitions its reporting missing ntfs signature ... what have I missed to do to finish the resize completely ?
[21:19] <holstein> zubuntu: you need root to install.. or, just open the terminal and install supported and functional libreoffice that is supported and funcitonal and works well
[21:19] <Darkwell> made sure to se the partition to type 7 , also btw
[21:19] <zubuntu> done :p
[21:19] <holstein> zubuntu: there is no reason for you to use openoffice.. you have no legitimate reason to prefer it.. it is only complicating your situation, and not supported here
[21:20] <domsson> holstein, he is old fashioned, so I guess his reason is that he wants to stick with exactly what he's used to.
[21:20] <Bashing-om> Matml: "1:4.2.4-0ubuntu2 [security]: amd64 i386" is what is supposed to be installed. lemme do a bit more checking.
[21:20] <holstein> sure. and thats libreoffice.. its actually  *more* like the old openoffice than apache openoffice..
[21:20] <ki7mt> +1
[21:20] <Matml> Bashing-om: Thanks!
[21:21] <domsson> Yeah, I'm all for LibreOffice, am using it myself.
[21:21] <ki7mt> If it did not have the App name in the title bar, you couldnt' tell the difference for the most part
[21:21] <holstein> if the team could have taken the name, they would have..
[21:21] <zubuntu> thx thx thx
[21:21] <zubuntu> done
[21:22] <zubuntu> but OO icons are bigger than libreoffice icons
[21:22] <holstein> zubuntu: enjoy.. if you are interested in old openoffice, try libreoffice sometime
[21:22] <zubuntu> weird
[21:22] <zubuntu> holstein: i am fine with this :p
[21:22] <holstein> zubuntu: icon sizes can change from release to release..
[21:22] <ethan> hello
[21:23] <zubuntu> is it old ?
[21:23] <zubuntu> i mean doesnt they upgrade it ?
[21:23] <holstein> zubuntu: whats your question, friend?
[21:23] <holstein> zubuntu: is what old?
[21:23] <zubuntu> openoffice
[21:24] <zubuntu> dont they upgrade it sometime ?
[21:24] <ki7mt> omg
[21:24] <holstein> zubuntu: libreoffice is current supported. and in the repos. so if you are worried about recievin updates, thats the one you want
[21:24] <holstein> zubuntu: the facts are here.. http://www.howtogeek.com/187663/openoffice-vs.-libreoffice-whats-the-difference-and-which-should-you-use/ as ki7mt shared
[21:25] <zubuntu> hm
[21:26] <holstein> i mean, if you literally are just going by the name, im only suggesting that you actually try the products. libreoffice is the most like older openoffice..
[21:26] <Guest97491> I was wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I am having. After I make a live usb using dd I can not use it. It says it is a read only and gparted does not detect it, but the disks application does. I was wondering if anyone has a fix for this. I have tried changing the partition table and deleting the partition then making a new one.
[21:26] <domsson> I did a research on the topic just a month ago. Result, short version: go with LibreOffice.
[21:27] <MonkeyDust> zubuntu  drop openoffice, use libreoffice
[21:27] <holstein> zubuntu: i literally am only suggesting that you try them both, and make the decision your self.. or do the research.. there is more to it than just the name, which was not owned by the team
[21:28] <zubuntu> i will try openoffice
[21:28] <holstein> zubuntu: you are using openoffice...
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> zubuntu  why don't you try libreoffice?
[21:29] <zubuntu> MonkeyDust: i alreadt tried it :p
[21:29] <zubuntu> already*
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> zubuntu  great, what goes wrong?
[21:29] <zubuntu> lol
[21:29] <zubuntu> i miss the past sometimes
[21:30] <MonkeyDust> the paste?
[21:30] <Dave77> are there any utils like cpu-z on ubuntu?
[21:30] <holstein> zubuntu: libreoffice is more like the past openoffice
[21:30] <MonkeyDust> ah, the past, the old days
[21:30] <zubuntu> holstein: i have noticed that
[21:31] <MonkeyDust> zubuntu  time to move on, head for the future
[21:31] <zubuntu> well
[21:31] <zubuntu> this is not future
[21:31] <zubuntu> future is using microsoft office in ubuntu :p
[21:31] <zubuntu> and compatible with pc
[21:32] <ki7mt> This one will surely win the daily Pandoras box award
[21:32] <MonkeyDust> zubuntu  i guess ypou just lost everybody's sympathy and will to assist you
[21:32] <mikeg3> Hi I am having difficulty installing Ubuntu…I have a Compaq Presario SR5510F with 2GB RAM with  Windows Vista already installed.  Two basic issues: (1) the GRUB install failed, and (2) having trouble with older nVidia GForce 6150SE graphics card and getting video to work.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance…
[21:32] <zubuntu> lol MonkeyDust
[21:32] <holstein> microsoft is welcome to release what they like for linux.. but, lets please continue this is #ubuntu-offtopic.. thanks, zubuntu
[21:33] <holstein> mikeg3: can you get "video to work" with the live CD? in nomodeset? or any other way?
[21:34] <Bashing-om> Matml: Try -> dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq python3-uno , sudo apt-get install python3-uno , sudo apt-get check <- .
[21:34] <ki7mt> mikeg3, IIn the past I suggested using EasyBCD for dual booting Vista and Ubuntu, but was told it's muddling the boot, but its works for me, you may want to looking into using it.
[21:35] <holstein> mikeg3: i would just force grub to install after the os installation.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair you can share errors if any, then move on to graphics support

[21:36] <ntiy> I am building some stuff from source and I get the following error: "/usr/bin/ld: attempted static link of dynamic object `../lib/.libs/libcurl.so'" Does anybody know what it means?
[21:36] <Bashing-om> Matml: look'n .
[21:38] <ki7mt> ntiy, try using -lcurl v.s. passing libcurl.so
[21:38] <domsson> Even the basic `mount.cifs -o guest //ip-addr/share /mnt/share` gives me `mount error(95): Operation not supported` - what could possibly be wrong with it?
[21:39] <rypervenche> If my netmask is coming up incorrectly on my Ubuntu server and my interfaces file is set up correctly, where would I look to fix this?
[21:39] <domsson> (of course, 'ip-addr' is being replaced with an actual ip-address)
[21:39] <_2_daniboo> hello
[21:40] <ki7mt> ntiy, and, make sure you have libcurl3 / curl installed.
[21:41] <ntiy> ki7mt: let me try...
[21:41] <Bashing-om> Matml: Don't know yet ! .. I am hampered as on my system "sysop@1310mini:~$ dpkg -l python3-uno ->>dpkg-query: no packages found matching python3-uno" Think'n some more.
[21:41] <ntiy> ki7mt: problem is that it is libcurl itself what I am building
[21:42] <ntiy> so I am a little confused -- why is is trying to link against libcurl while building libcurl...
[21:42] <ki7mt> ntiy, to answer the question, the build looks to be --static, and your linking against a shared object ".so". Using -lcurl should pick up the .a file or the static library.
[21:42] <_2_daniboo> Hi am new
[21:43] <ntiy> ki7mt: I configured it with "--enable-static=no"
[21:43] <Matml> Bashing-om: Thanks. This is the output from a powersave command

[21:43] <NightHawk877> join #ubuntu-touch
[21:43] <ki7mt> ntiy, Are you following a guide somwhere or something?
[21:43] <rypervenche> Is /etc/network/interfaces the only place that my network's netmask may be located?
[21:44] <ki7mt> ntiy, and just for background, why build it v.s. just installing the repo versions?
[21:44] <ntiy> not really. I mean it's supposed to be an easy install: CC=cc ./configure --enable-static=no --with-zlib=/home/trn/zlib/1.2.8/lib --prefix=/home/trn/curl/7.37.0" and then "make"
[21:45] <ntiy> ki7mt: it's an hpc cluster machine and we build everything from scratch here
[21:46] <ki7mt> ntiy, Is this a Ubuntu server?
[21:46] <ntiy> nope :-\
[21:46] <holstein> ntiy: so, you are not using ubuntu? or ubuntu packages?
[21:46] <heap_> hi i cant click on anything in unity, keyboard works, i can use tab for apps and typing.. but mouse cursor is moving but no reaction, idea?
[21:47] <zubuntu> how can i install adobe reader ?
[21:47] <ki7mt> ntiy, If not Ubuntu, are you sure your asking in the right place :-)
[21:47] <holstein> !pdf | zubuntu
[21:47] <ntiy> ki7mt: yep. it's still linux and ubuntu channel has many knowledgeable people  :)
[21:47] <ki7mt> zubuntu, see info: http://askubuntu.com/questions/89127/how-do-i-install-adobe-acrobat-reader
[21:48] <holstein> zubuntu: i would try one from the repos, and if that doest work, you can get adobe reader from adobe.. http://askubuntu.com/questions/89127/how-do-i-install-adobe-acrobat-reader
[21:48] <ntiy> what difference does a particular distro makes in this context?
[21:48] <ki7mt> ntiy, But the channel is pretty strick on being Ubuntu related, you may find help in ##linux
[21:48] <holstein> ntiy: surely, you can see how this is not the proper avenue for support for what you are doing.. i would try and contacing the creators of the software you are having issues with
[21:48] <ntiy> ok, thanks
[21:49] <heap_> any?;/
[21:49] <vimes1984> hello all
[21:49] <vimes1984> I have having major headaches
[21:49] <vimes1984> uninstalling
[21:49] <vimes1984> git
[21:49] <vimes1984> or updating git
[21:49] <holstein> heap_: i would see if its the same in the guest account..
[21:49] <vimes1984> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa
[21:49] <vimes1984> sudo apt-get update
[21:49] <vimes1984> sudo apt-get install git
[21:49] <vimes1984> doesn't work
[21:49] <holstein> !ppa | vimes1984
[21:50] <heap_> holstein: it happens randomly right now
[21:50] <heap_> i worked before
[21:50] <holstein> vimes1984: you would have to ask the maintainers of the ppa.. though, it may just be temprarily down,or not supporting your ubuntu version
[21:50] <holstein> heap_: before what? any details you can share can help a volunteer assist you
[21:50] <ki7mt> vimes1984, git is in the repos, why use the PPA ?
[21:50] <vimes1984> it's not that it doesn't install
[21:50] <holstein> vimes1984: ok.. try the repo version
[21:50] <vimes1984> because the one in the repo is behind and i need to use google app engine
[21:50] <vimes1984> which requires
[21:50] <heap_> holstein: i wanted to do some clicks in spotify, did lot of clicks and then it happend
[21:50] <vimes1984> 1.8
[21:51] <holstein> vimes1984: we cant support that ppa version here, though.. you'll have to ask the maintainers of the ppa version
[21:51] <vimes1984> that ppa installs fine
[21:51] <ki7mt> vimes1984, fare enough, I'd recommend contacting the PPA maintainer for assistance then.
[21:51] <heap_> holstein: i got dialog that something in spotyfi some helper crashed but mouse is still inactive. well i can move etc but no reaction on click
[21:51] <holstein> vimes1984: sure, and thats not the issue.. the issue is, its not an ubuntu source..
[21:52] <vimes1984> no the issue is that the ubuntu source is 4 version behind
[21:52] <holstein> heap_: what flash are you using?
[21:52] <holstein> vimes1984: thats "as advertised" though.. its not a rolling release.. the versions of most everything are frozen like that..
[21:52] <heap_> holstein: no idea, is there any connection with flash?
[21:52] <vimes1984> git isn't
[21:52] <vimes1984> git is behind
[21:52] <holstein> vimes1984: you can try building git yourself, and that may be the easiest
[21:53] <asturel> anyone knows why is this happen? http://eeew.tk/u/WQ9qEg.png the window becomes invisible until i click it and go back to 'desktop view' or whatever this
[21:53] <vimes1984> bugger that is what i didn't want to do
[21:53] <heap_> holstein: i meant spotify client application not over web
[21:53] <vimes1984> ok so on to my other issue
[21:53] <vimes1984> i can't remove git either
[21:53] <holstein> vimes1984: most everything in ubuntu is frozen. and not updated like that
[21:53] <zubuntu> bad package error
[21:53] <ki7mt> vimes1984, yes, all packages are, most are frozen at the Debian import freeze, this has been the methodology for a long time.
[21:54] <vimes1984> so what do i do
[21:54] <holstein> heap_: you can try running the spotify client from the terminal and see if there are any error messages that help
[21:54] <vimes1984> is building my own the only way?
[21:54] <holstein> vimes1984: you can build whatever version you like, friend..
[21:54] <heap_> holstein: but mouse doesnt react for whole unity
[21:54] <ki7mt> vimes1984, as stated several time, contact the PPA maintainer for assistance on install their package.
[21:54] <holstein> vimes1984: you can look for another ppa,or offer to help maintain the one you are using, after you determine the ppa version is "bad"
[21:54] <heap_> holstein: i cant click in ff, terminal and so on
[21:55] <vimes1984> ok
[21:55] <ToAruShiroiNeko> is there a way to extract magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz to a specific folder rather than magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> subdir
[21:55] <vimes1984> cool
[21:55] <vimes1984> thanks
[21:55] <holstein> heap_: you said, thats after the spotify crash
[21:55] <trism> vimes1984: you could update to 14.04, it has 1.9.1
[21:55] <heap_> holstein: i exited spotify client and now it works.
[21:55] <heap_> holstein: part of spotify, some spotify helper or so
[21:56] <holstein> heap_: so, is spotify causing the breakage, as you have implied, or no?
[21:56] <heap_> holstein: yes, spotify ;)
[21:57] <heap_> holstein:  i did few random click inside spotify client and some spotify helper crashed, client was running but mouse stoped to react in the whole unity. after i killed spotify client it started work properly
[21:57] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, you could try: mkdir magneto-sample-data && tar xf  magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz -C magneto-sample-data --strip-components 1
[21:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> what would that do?
[21:58] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, makes a directory, and untars the file to it, or shoild do anyway.
[21:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> all i want to do is omve all files and folders in a subdir to some place else and I am reading manual after another
[21:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I cant believe this is this complicated in linux
[21:59] <ToAruShiroiNeko> ki7mt I want to extract it to an existing dir
[21:59] <heap_> holstein: i must block it somehow
[21:59] <baddin> haw
[21:59] <ki7mt> then change the name of the target directory to what you want.
[22:00] <ki7mt> Totar xf  magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz -C <directory-name> --strip-components 1
[22:00] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, sri: tar xf  magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz -C <directory-name> --strip-components 1
[22:01] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, or extract then mv the folder
[22:01] <heap_> holstein: another thing when i did upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 today, it crashed in between then finished somehow. in logs are around 30 packages marked as Errors were encountered while processing: ... distro booted successfuly but no idea if any impact is there
[22:02] <holstein> heap_: i would fix *all* of those, and expect issues til that is resolved..
[22:02] <holstein> heap_: i would run "sudo apt-get update" and look for errors, and address them. the same for "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[22:02] <macscam1> when a command line program opens a browser, it is always firefox .... how do i change this to chrome?
[22:03] <holstein> macscam1: i set my systemwide browser choice.. you can try sudo update-alternatives –config x-www-browser
[22:03] <ki7mt> macscam1, Dash >> System Settings >> Details .. Use Web pull down
[22:04] <macscam1> ki7mt actually it is already chromium there
[22:04] <Matml> Bashing-om: I'm having no luck googling for similar problems, they all just focus on python, talking about version conflicts.
[22:04] <heap_> holstein: well after broken update i did reboot, then when i did apt-get update and so on no errors were displayed anymore
[22:05] <Bashing-om> Matml: Playing catch up from my last. Food for thought -> " PYTHONPATH is used by the Python interpreter to find out where to look for modules to import. ".
[22:05] <Matml> Bashing-om:echo of it is blank
[22:05] <ki7mt> macscam1, ok, try: xdg-settings set default-web-browser chromium.desktop  But the revious should work, mybe log out and log back int to take affect.
[22:05] <holstein> heap_: ok.. specifically run the 2 commands i gave.. run them again if you did already. you can pastebin..
[22:05] <holstein> !paste
[22:06] <macscam1> ki7mt i have logged out many times since changing it, doesnt work
[22:06] <holstein> macscam1: setting with sudo update-alternatives –config x-www-browser doesnt help?
[22:06] <ki7mt> macscam1, Sir, commabd was wrong, use: xdg-settings set default-web-browser chromium-browser.desktop
[22:07] <ki7mt> or what holstein just said, that was next on the list :-)
[22:07] <macscam1> holstein no, unknown argument -config
[22:07] <holstein> macscam1: you can copy paste from above.. thats not the command
[22:08] <holstein> should be able to use auto complete, anyway, macscam1
[22:08] <holstein> macscam1: should be --config
[22:08] <ki7mt> macscam1, Try this, I jsut tested it on 14.04: sudo update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser
[22:09] <heap_> holstein: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7702908/ , i think its fine
[22:09] <es> is there a way to open old Appleworks .cwk files?
[22:09] <holstein> es: just try it
[22:10] <ToAruShiroiNeko> ki7mt I cant mv the folder
[22:10] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I dont understand why not
[22:10] <holstein> ToAruShiroiNeko: ask a question.. "i cant mv the folder" is not a question
[22:10] <domsson> I get horrible flickering of GUI elements (mainly in the browser, but also gedit and basically everywhere...) when something "happens" on screen: scrolling (most notably), going through picture galleries on the web, moving a line of text up/down in gedit, ... - playing videos is without problems though. What could cause this?
[22:10] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I use sudo mv /var/www/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>/* /var/www/
[22:11] <heap_> holstein: but this is snippet of apt-term.log  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7702911
[22:11] <ToAruShiroiNeko> mv: cannot move ‘/var/www/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>/media’ to ‘/var/www/media’: Directory not empty
[22:11] <ToAruShiroiNeko> mv: cannot move ‘/var/www/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>/skin’ to ‘/var/www/skin’: Directory not empty
[22:11] <ToAruShiroiNeko> thats kind of the point. I want you to move the not empty folder -_-
[22:11] <macscam1> ki7mt thank you i changed the settings for x-www-browser and gnome-www-browser and opened a new terminal and tried the command, stil firefox though
[22:12] <ki7mt> macscam1, You may need to log out, then back in, if that's not working, something else is going on.
[22:12] <macscam1> ki7mt ok figured it out, turns out the program was hard-coded to run firefox
[22:12] <macscam1> thanks for the help
[22:13] <ToAruShiroiNeko> ki7mt why would I be encountering this problem?
[22:13] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, mv -f to force it to move
[22:13] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: probably means you already have a /var/www/media with stuff in it and it might get overwritten
[22:13] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, no idea why your getting that
[22:13] <solidus-river> my start stop deamon is not relinquishing control
[22:13] <solidus-river> its forever running
[22:13] <Bashing-om> Matml: Curiouser and curiouser .. lemme see what I can find for bug reports in Launchpad  !
[22:13] <ToAruShiroiNeko> Ben64 that is correct
[22:13] <Matml> Bashing-om: Ta!
[22:13] <ToAruShiroiNeko> and that is the desired outcome
[22:13] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I want it to overwrite anything when relevant
[22:13] <holstein> ToAruShiroiNeko: then, just empty the destination
[22:14] <ToAruShiroiNeko> it is a merge
[22:14] <holstein> ToAruShiroiNeko: you are not asking that with the command you give
[22:14] <holstein> ToAruShiroiNeko: mv is not merge..
[22:14] <holstein> ToAruShiroiNeko: the mv force will overwrite, as well
[22:14] <ki7mt> +1 mv -f will do it, but nuke the existing folder
[22:15] <jeeves_moss> how do I install opengl for ruby?
[22:15] <holstein> regardless, id make a backup, if this is mission critical, then, consider a GUI if that makes it easier for you, ToAruShiroiNeko .. there is a grsync gui frontend to rsync..
[22:16] <bekks> jeeves_moss: sudo apt-get install ruby-opengl
[22:17] <doobie_pie> mpv won't play dvd movies. what codec does it need installed?
[22:17] <holstein> !restricted
[22:17] <heap_> holstein: does it help?
[22:17] <holstein> heap_: does what help?
[22:18] <Ben64> heap_: looks like you have mixed repositories, saucy and trusty. that isn't good
[22:19] <heap_> holstein: pastebins
[22:19] <mikeg31> Is there any way to get to a commandline when the Ubuntu 14.04 CD starts?  The USB mouse keeps freezing…can't use it in Live mode or install.
[22:19] <heap_> Ben64: well before upgrade it was everyting saucy i think
[22:19] <holstein> heap_: as Ben64 states, you have mixed sources
[22:19] <Ben64> heap_: yeah things are usually saucy on saucy...
[22:20] <maddawg2> mikeg31 have you tried ctrl+alt+t
[22:20] <ToAruShiroiNeko> holstein its the defauult magento files
[22:20] <ToAruShiroiNeko> its a test server
[22:20] <holstein> heap_: i know, i would want to backup my data, regardless.. then, i would personally just fresh install, since, repairing that partitially upgraded system is a pain, and i may still not trust it..
[22:20] <ToAruShiroiNeko> nothing is too important
[22:20] <heap_> yeah there is some mix right now shit ;
[22:21] <heap_> ;/
[22:21] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I am trying to overwrite the blank magento library with the sample data
[22:21] <ToAruShiroiNeko> which should overwrite most files
[22:21] <holstein> !language | heap_
[22:21] <maddawg2> magneto?'
[22:21] <maddawg2> he's my favorite
[22:21] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: then use rsync to merge
[22:21] <ToAruShiroiNeko> okay
[22:21] <ToAruShiroiNeko> which options should I use?
[22:22] <bekks> ToAruShiroiNeko: Why dont you just copy the files and remove the source then?
[22:22] <ToAruShiroiNeko> oh
[22:22] <bekks> Would have saved you hours, I guess.
[22:22] <Ben64> i'd do "rsync -avP /path/to/source /path/to/destination"
[22:22] <ToAruShiroiNeko> -_-
[22:23] <ki7mt> ToAruShiroiNeko, or cp -Ru if you only want updated files
[22:23] <doobie_pie> does touchscreen work automatically on a tablet that you install?
[22:23] <es> i asked, nothing I'vetried yet will open Apple's ancient Word clone's files holstein I did before
[22:23] <bekks> Or rsync -av ...
[22:23] <doobie_pie> in ubuntu 14.04
[22:24] <holstein> es: ok.. i would ask apple for a way to use them..
[22:24] <heap_> holstein: i dont know, before upgrade it couldnt be mixed. i can take a look into backup hows apt.source looked like.
[22:24] <Bashing-om> Matml: Curiouser and curiouser .. lemme see what I can find for bug reports in Launchpad  !
[22:24] <holstein> heap_: im talking about a backup of data..
[22:24] <heap_> holstein: question is why the log is full of that errors and when i did apt-get dist-upgrade no errors are reported now.
[22:25] <heap_> holstein: i dont have time for that and i thought there was tested upgrade from 10.03 to 14.04
[22:25] <es> holstein they'd say buy a mac and keynote
[22:26] <holstein> es: if thats the agreement you have, you may want to do so, or borrow and convert
[22:27] <ki7mt> es, whats that's the file type you need converting?
[22:27] <holstein> heap_: this is not breakage, friend.. you interrupted the upgrade.. thats not good..
[22:27] <es>  ki7mt .cwk
[22:27] <heap_> holstein: but interupted how?
[22:27] <bekks> es: thats a file extension, not a "type of files".
[22:27] <heap_> holstein: before upgrade i did dist-upgrade, everything works smoothly
[22:27] <bekks> es: file extension actually mean nothing at all
[22:28] <holstein> heap_: you stated you interrupted it..
[22:28] <heap_> holstein: it was interupted by itself :)
[22:28] <heap_> holstein: i can upload whole log from apt-term
[22:29] <es> bekks Appleworks = Apple's old Word clone killed off about 2005, old Mac is dead
[22:29] <holstein> heap_: interrupted is bad..
[22:29] <ki7mt> es, wow, lots of hits on this one, this thread has several ways using Libreoffice: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2667
[22:30] <GhostChili> Hi all, first of all thanks in advance, i'm trying to install Skeltrack-Desktop-Control, a program to use kinect (the old one for xbox 360) as pc controller, i follow the install steps written here → http://tayyabnaseer.blogspot.it/2012/05/installing-skeltrack-on-ubuntu.html ← some troule installing it but fixed till the last steps , after {  ./configure --enable-examples=yes } i do the command { make } that give me an error ( /usr/bin/ld: cannot
[22:30] <GhostChili>  find /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/: File format not recognized ) . i'm using a Xubuntu 14.04 32bit on a Dell XPS m1730 . here the output of the { make } command http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7702589/ . Someone can  help me?
[22:30] <ki7mt> es, sri Says to use Oenoffice, but should work in Libreoffice
[22:30] <heap_> holstein: i know but ... wasnt my fault.
[22:30] <holstein> heap_: i didnt say it was
[22:31] <heap_> holstein: i thought that those upgrades are tested before released into production
[22:31] <holstein> heap_: i personally tested many, friend..
[22:31] <icesword> hello?
[22:31] <maddawg2> goodbye
[22:31] <heap_> i never had ubuntu distro upgrade w/out problems, crashes, no boot, etc
[22:31] <doobie_pie> do you know how to boot ubuntu on live sd card from android tablet? to get into the boot screen on it
[22:31] <holstein> heap_: im not saying it was your fault.. and it really doenst matter fault.
[22:31] <ki7mt> heap_, they are tested, LTS to the next release, then and / or LTS to LTS
[22:31] <icesword> can anyone highlight my name?
[22:31] <holstein> heap_: i always prefer and suggest fresh installs
[22:31] <holstein> icesword: yes
 ummm yes
[22:32] <es> ki7mt thanks
[22:32] <heap_> hm strange like i said i did 10.3 to 14.04 and u see... crashed. but system booted.
[22:32] <holstein> heap_: 10.04?
[22:32] <Ben64> 10.3?
[22:32] <maddawg2> shouldnt you upgrade in stages?
[22:32] <heap_> holstein: eerr 14.04
[22:32] <maddawg2> not directly to the latest version but to the next release and so on so fourth
[22:33] <heap_> holstein: but fresh install is pain... imageine macos do that this way..
[22:33] <holstein> heap_: i understand you must be frustrated.. but, right now, i would want to backup my data.. and try repairing, and consider just a fresh install of 14.04, since that may be the simplest "Fix"
[22:33] <bekks> maddawg2: For LTS, you can directly to the next LTS release, when xx.yy.1 is released.
[22:33] <Ben64> heap_: upgrades almost always fail because of non standard repositories
[22:33] <heap_> holstein: hold on, ill up some log.
[22:33] <heap_> Ben64: yeah
[22:33] <holstein> heap_: you can backup whatever you like, and should have backups, since that hard drive will fail, regardless
[22:33] <heap_> Ben64: maybe i crushed something before
[22:34] <heap_> holstein: have backups by backuppc :) of /
[22:35] <holstein> heap_: is that a question for me? if so, please clarify
[22:38] <heap_> holstein: i meant i have backup done by backuppc of /

[22:46] <GhostChili> Ben64: Ok, Thk
[22:46] <Matml> Bashing-om: Any luck?
[22:49] <heap_> holstein: Ben64 here is http://paste.ubuntu.com/7703050/ sources.list while doing distro upgrade. everything is saucy except last two at the bottom lastfm and slimdevices
[22:53] <kastan> whats up community i just downloaded virtual box to run windows and it is running perfectly except the Internet is very slow and when i go full screen the virtual box window stays the same size does anyone know how to fix so problems?
[22:53] <bekks> kastan: Install the gueest additions.
[22:53] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I atempted sudo rsync /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> /var/www/
[22:53] <ToAruShiroiNeko> but it skips magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>
[22:53] <ToAruShiroiNeko> why would it do that
[22:54] <kastan> do i install it from ubuntu software center
[22:54] <bekks> ToAruShiroiNeko: because you did not use -a which implies -r which means recursion.
[22:55] <^v> halp, Xorg looks like its leaking memory
[22:55] <kastan> after you install guest additions do i mount the iso and than what/
[22:55] <heap_> holstein: around?
[22:56] <^v> is taking 1.1GB
[22:56] <^v> ive seen it go to 1.6
[22:56] <ToAruShiroiNeko> bekks so sudo rsync -a /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> /var/www/
[22:56] <ToAruShiroiNeko> right?
[22:56] <bekks> ToAruShiroiNeko: yes.
[22:56] <Beldar> kastan, Mount than run from windows computer link, be sure to add yourself to the vbox in the host if it is linux.
[22:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> it doesnt seem tod o anything
[22:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> cp doesnt work either
[22:57] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I cannot believe I spent 3 hours trying to move a group of files from one directory to another
[22:57] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: you should look at man pages for correct syntax and options
[22:58] <heap_> or Ben64 any idea?
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> what do you think I have been doing int he past 3 hours? :p
[22:58] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: what *exactly* are you trying to do
[22:58] <heap_> based on the log*
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> \I get errros no matter what I do
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> okay
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I have two files
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> one has default magento files
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> other has sample data
[22:58] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I need to overwrite the default magento files with the sample data files
[22:58] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: can you do this without using 20 lines of text? just very simply tell me what you want
[22:58] <OerHeks>  ToAruShiroiNeko /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> >> /var/www/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>
[22:58] <OerHeks> just a typo
[22:59] <ToAruShiroiNeko> probably /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> >> /var/www/
[22:59] <Ben64> then "mv /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> /var/www/"
[22:59] <Ben64> but i bet thats not what you really want
[23:00] <ToAruShiroiNeko> mv: cannot move ‘/var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>’ to ‘/var/www/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>’: Directory not empty
[23:00] <Ben64> let me know when you figure it out and i'll help you
[23:00] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I have figured out what I need to do exactly
[23:00] <Ben64> then say it
[23:01] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I explained
[23:01] <ToAruShiroiNeko> let me explain again
[23:01] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I want to move all files and folders in /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> to /var/www/
[23:01] <ToAruShiroiNeko> it should overwrite /var/www/ if relevant but shouldnt delete anything if it cant overwrite
[23:01] <ki7mt> sudo cp -Ru /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS>/* /var/www/
[23:02] <Ben64> so you want everything that is *inside* of /var/magento-sample-data-<IP_ADDRESS> to be in /var/www ?
[23:02] <ToAruShiroiNeko> in windows this would be a cut and paste
[23:02] <Ben64> you're making it so much more difficult than it needs to be
[23:04] <heap_> Ben64: pls any idea?
[23:04] <Ben64> heap_: why you keep pinging me : /
[23:04] <heap_> just need to be sure if i have to really trash this installation or if i can run it.
[23:04] <heap_> Ben64: :> cuz u were partly in this upgrade conversation.
[23:05] <Ben64> try fixing your sources and updating and dist-upgrading
[23:05] <Ben64> if that doesn't work, then it's broken forever
[23:05] <heap_> Ben64: when i did everyhing looks fine.
[23:05] <heap_> no errors anymore
[23:05] <Ben64> pastebin "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" then
[23:06] <phroa> this might be a text wall and I'm not even sure this is the best place to ask. If not, sorry. I'm going through the install process for OpenChange and after compiling and installing Samba it would appear everything is in order... except samba-tool isn't a program that exists. samba seems to be relatively installed where it should be according to the install steps. I'm pretty certain I did
[23:06] <phroa> everything to the letter in the install guide
[23:07] <phroa> what more information can I provide?
[23:08] <heap_> Ben64: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7702908/
[23:08] <Ben64> heap_: you still have saucy there
[23:08] <OerHeks> !info samba-tools | phroa, sounds like a typo
[23:08] <OerHeks> oh
[23:08] <heap_> Ben64: it was before i removed it... but when i removed and did apt-get output is the same. no errors.
[23:09] <phroa> I built it
[23:09] <causative> what kind of problems should I expect if I use iptables and networkmanager together?  the iptables tutorial warns there might be conflicts
[23:09] <heap_> Ben64: just tired to do another pastebin.
[23:09] <OerHeks> !infosamba-tools precise
[23:09] <OerHeks> !info samba-tools precise
[23:10] <OerHeks> mot sure why they are removed in trusty
[23:10] <phroa> this is some special version or something. I'm not perfectly sure, all I know is that I compiled it
[23:10] <kastan> i am having problems finding the guest addition iso file to mount in virtual box any ideas on were it might be located i check opt
[23:10] <Bashing-om> Matml: No luck to this time. Domestic issue taking my attention at this time. still concerned that you have an old version of python3-uno installed and not able to update to what is current. I will be back later.
[23:10] <^v> :/
[23:11] <^v> no help?
[23:11] <Matml> Bashing-om: Ok, thanks for your help, if I'm not around later I'll be back tomorrow!
[23:11] <Matml> silly python!
[23:11] <Ben64> kastan: theres an option in vbox to install it
[23:12] <bell73> i need help with my laptop
[23:13] <kastan> Ben64 yeah but it didnt do anything
[23:13] <ki7mt> kastan, I think, if I remember, it installs it to /media/<username>
[23:14] <ki7mt> by installs, I mean puts the scripts there.
[23:14] <kastan> Ben64 sorry it says insert not install
[23:14] <Matml> Anyone else have any ideas about an error in the terminal saying "failed to import the site module"?
[23:14] <Ben64> kastan: you have to install it on the guest
[23:15] <ToAruShiroiNeko> in windows this would be a cut and paste task
[23:15] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: yes you mentioned that. it's very simple in linux as well, but still requires you to know what you want
[23:15] <ki7mt> In Windows, you have to pay for the OS and buy Anti-Virus SW too :-)
[23:15] <ToAruShiroiNeko> isnt it obvious?
[23:15] <ToAruShiroiNeko> sure linux is great
[23:15] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I am strugling with it
[23:15] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: i asked you 15 minutes ago to explain exactly what you wanted and you couldn't
[23:16] <kastan> Ben64 thats were im getting lost im confused by what you mean by guest
[23:16] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I have explained it to you 3 times
[23:16] <Ben64> kastan: guest = the virtual machine
[23:16] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: 0 times actually
[23:16] <aledzadza> im trying to install monitorix and i get this error http://pastebin.com/DNbthE67
[23:16] <ToAruShiroiNeko> files and directories in directory a to directory b
[23:16] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I cannot explain it simpler
[23:16] <Ben64> ToAruShiroiNeko: "mv a b"
[23:16] <ki7mt> I pasted the cp command he needed to use.
[23:16] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I think that one worked
[23:16] <kastan> Ben64 Oh thank you!
[23:16] <ToAruShiroiNeko> I am trying to verify
[23:17] <ToAruShiroiNeko> for whatever the reason everything crashed
[23:18] <export> ToAruShiroiNeko: what crashed? O.o
[23:19] <crontab> Does Ubuntu have /etc/mail disabled by default?
[23:19] <ki7mt> aledzadza, did you do that the message said after: E: Unmet dependencies.  I'm not sure it is a problem with python, just what googling suggests.
[23:22] <kastan> hmmm do i make a new virtual machine with the guest addition or?
[23:22] <ki7mt> Matml, maybe I missunderstoon, but your installing python3-uno or something python3 yes?
[23:22] <kastan> figured it out! thank you all
[23:23] <Matml> ki7mt: Just normal updates... that one is coming back as failing.
[23:23] <Matml> ki7mt: But there are lots of things that aren't working at the moment, all with the same error message "Failed to import the site module"
[23:24] <ki7mt> Matml, if all else fails, file a Bug report and get the maintainers to look into it.
[23:24] <Matml> ki7mt: I think it's a broader problem than that package.
[23:25] <ki7mt> Matml, probably so, but that's what you have to start with, and help them work back from there.
[23:26] <Matml> ki7mt: I might have to, I'm a bit out of my depth in terms of ubuntu knowledge
[23:26] <ki7mt> Matml, other channels to try is -motu, -bugsquad, -devel, they deal with those issues allot.
[23:27] <Matml> ki7mt: Thanks.
[23:27] <ki7mt> Matml, I issues with Numpy and F2PY, so I feel your pain, but I've not see that particular error.
[23:29] <crontab> What shoud I do to get mail that is sent to root@localhost by one of my programs?
[23:30] <phroa> not send the mail to root?
[23:30] <Lunario> Is there anybody here who made experiences installing ubuntu (or fedora as an alternative) on a 64 bit machine that uses UEFI to boot?
[23:30] <crontab> phroa: how would I get the mail then?
[23:30] <phroa> send it to a normal user?
[23:31] <Ben64> !uefi | Lunario
[23:31] <Lunario> Because my new notebook has Windows 8.1 with UEFI preinstalled, but I want to use both Win and Ubuntu like before. However the UEFI boot mode causes problems from what I have read
[23:31] <crontab> phroa: but I have no /etc/mail directory
[23:31] <ki7mt> Lunario, there are lots folks that know the UEFI setup, just ask your question(s)
[23:31] <phroa> I think it's /var/mail/<username>
[23:31] <phroa> could be wrong
[23:31] <Dave77> are there any GUI apps on ubuntu to explore contents of ISO?
[23:31] <crontab> phroa: thanks, what is the command to check the mail?
[23:32] <Lunario> Well, basically, I have already read many threads about UEFI on the forum and on other sites, but there were so many different explanations depending on hardware, OS etc... so my basic concern is:
[23:32] <phroa> either use something like `more` or, install something like pine, mutt, or mail. I don't think any are preinstalled afaik
[23:32] <Lunario> what if something goes wrong? Will I not be able to boot Windows anymore either?
[23:32] <crontab> phroa: should I install mailutils?
[23:32] <phroa> Lunario: backups :)
[23:33] <phroa> oh, maybe
[23:33] <Lunario> That's my main concern. Not because I am a Windows fan (haven't used it for years) but because I need it for my partner who uses Windows on this machine
[23:33] <phroa> I don't quite know much about those packages
[23:35] <Matml> Lunario: I had no problems with my laptop, dual booting windows 8 and Ubuntu
[23:35] <Lunario> well I do have backups, but it's not exactly a nice perspective not knowing whether the entire bios config is going to be messed up just because of a second OS installation, which always worked fine so far (under non-UEFI systems)
[23:35] <Lunario> May I ask what laptop you are using?
[23:35] <Lunario> Mine is a MSI GP60 2PE
[23:35] <VinceN> Good Afternoon all, I was wondering if someone could offer some help with an OpenVPN server running on Ubuntu 12.04, specifcally I can't seem to figure out how to configure Ubuntu to properly router traffic to the internet from the OpenVPN interface so connected clients can tunnel to the internet through the VPN
[23:36] <ki7mt> Lunario, honestly, had same thing with my kids, until the Windows cruch is removed (gone or not available), they kept going back, cold turkey switching is best I think unless you have a mission critical Windows apps that's need and not available in Linux.
[23:36] <crontab> ls
[23:36] <Matml> Lunario: An ASUS S200E
[23:38] <Lunario> ki7mt: it's mainly games he needs/wants to play on it, which simply dont run on Linux
[23:39] <ki7mt> Lunario, found that battle too, and lost of a few font, but yeah, gaming is not 100% yet, but it will be someday.
[23:39] <ki7mt> fought that battle
[23:39] <skinux> Has there ever been an idea to integrate calendar applet with an online calendar service (e.g. GMail, Hotmail, Zoho, etc.)?
[23:39] <Lunario> hopefully, ki7mt :)
[23:40] <Lunario> but anyway, as long as that is not the case, the problem of needing to dual boot still exists on my machine
[23:43] <skinux> part
[23:58] <kastan> would dual booting my computer make it run slower than it already does?
[23:58] <daftykins> no
[23:58] <phroa> shouldn't
[23:58] <kastan> ok cool
[23:58] <daftykins> kastan: what's it running now on what spec, and what's slow?
[23:59] <jareddlc> hey guys quick ntp question
[23:59] <jareddlc> if i install ntp and set a config file with 2 servers
[23:59] <jareddlc> how often does it update?


[13:26] <mcphail> Does anyone know why an .apparmor file containing http://termbin.com/eoc2 won't let me run "find /media/*/*/bg1 -maxdepth 0"? I'm getting Nov 21 13:09:11 ubuntu-phablet kernel: [117357.738918]type=1400 audit(1448111351.811:1191): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="bg1.njmcphail_bg1_0.10" name="/media/" pid=25663 comm="run.sh" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=32011 ouid=0
[13:28] <mcphail> The docviewer app uses a similar trick to allow access to the sdcard
[13:43] <popey> mcphail, do you have the find binary in your click?
[14:00] <mcphail> popey: need to find the path to the sdcard. It has a unique ID
[14:00] <popey> mcphail, my point was, is it failing because it can't run the /bin/find binary ?
[14:00] <popey> (I had to copy mkdir binary into my click package)
[14:00] <mcphail> popey: using busybox find in the click
[14:01] <popey> k
[14:01] <mcphail> Can't seem to get this to work without making it unconfined
[14:05] <mcphail> I presume the "read_path" stanza isn't just for content-hub?
[14:08] <popey> no
[14:08] <popey> its read/write directly
[14:08] <popey> you copied from docviewer?
[14:08] <mcphail> yes
[14:08] <mcphail> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-docviewer-dev/ubuntu-docviewer-app/lo-viewer/view/head:/docviewer.apparmor
[14:09] <mcphail> that has xonten_exchange as well, but I think I don't need that
[14:09] <mcphail> I've tried /media/*/*/bg1/ as well, but that doesn't work either
[14:11]  * mcphail wonders if simply "/media/" might work...
[14:14] <mcphail> OK, that seems to work. But it is a bit *broad*. Would an app pass a manual review with such permissions?
[20:24] <ok2cqr> Hi, I working on app that runs mysql server in embedded mode and saves the data to user's home directory. By default apparmor won't allow that. I have a scipt in post-install that does the modification but it seems direct changes of user.sbin.mysql is not good idea. Anybody know where I should paste the apparmor configuration changes, please?
[20:25] <ok2cqr> The script is here: https://github.com/ok2cqr/cqrlog/blob/master/tools/cqrlog-apparmor-fix
[20:40] <mcphail> popey: I've decided the BG app is probably ready enough to go up on the store. I'm sure it will attract lots of negative reviews due to the myriad of bugs, but I have broad shoulders. Do you know who I could ping for manual review for the sdcard access permissions?
