[16:08] <theadmin> sam-palmisano: The Software Center, of course, where else do you get apps :P
[16:08] <imarks> #ubuntu-phone
[16:08] <imarks> how do you switch channel?
[16:08] <BluesKaj> mmmbud, have you opened the Nvidia Xserver Settings app and checked the DFP-O colour correction settings ?
[16:08] <theadmin> imarks: /join #ubuntu-phone
[16:08] <k1l_> imarks: /join #channelname
[16:08] <Dragen> I'm trying to download and install LibreOffice, they say there are specific ways of doing so on different distros, but how do I do it? I've heard stuff about Software Center but I can't find it on Lubuntu.
[16:08] <imarks> oke thx
[16:09] <sam-palmisano> theadmin.., thank you buddy :)
[16:09] <k1l_> Dragen: "sudo apt-get install libreoffice"?
[16:09] <Dragen> I just copy and paste it into the command line?
[16:09] <theadmin> Dragen: I'm not sure why you can't find the SC, it's there on all Ubuntu versions, but you can easily do this via the terminal: sudo apt-get install libreoffice-{base,writer,calc,impress,math,draw}
[16:09] <k1l_> Dragen: i am not sure if software-center is in lubuntu as standard
[16:09] <Dragen> I'll try then.
[16:10] <theadmin> Dragen: You can install software-center via apt-get too, but Lubuntu should come with it...
[16:11] <Dragen> On the start button (or w/e it's called here) which category do I find it in?
[16:11] <theadmin> Is there a way to get Java (Swing) menus to integrate with globalmenu without recompiling them?
[16:11] <theadmin> Dragen: It'd be logical if it's in "System".
[16:11] <Dragen> Oh, I found it now. :P
[16:11] <Dragen> Thank you
[16:12] <code_ph0y> hey guys can someone tell me a program/tutoral on using svn?
[16:12] <mmmbud> blueskaj its only a blue tint on flash vids
[16:12] <jrib> Dragen: http://subversion.apache.org/docs/
[16:13] <Dragen> What is that?
[16:13] <jrib> code_ph0y: http://subversion.apache.org/docs/
[16:13] <theadmin> jrib: Mistab. code_ph0y: See the link jrib gave
[16:13] <jrib> Dragen: wrong nick :)
[16:13] <code_ph0y> thanks!
[16:13] <Dragen> OK
[16:13] <theadmin> code_ph0y: You could go the Ubuntu way and use Bazaar, too, it's svn-compatible.
[16:14] <mmmbud> this is prettymuch the first time ubuntu has worked for me
[16:14] <k1l_> mmmbud: like i said before: 13.04 is still in developing. so better ask in #ubuntu+1 since this is not a regular issue on ubuntu
[16:15] <mmmbud> ok thanks i had it in 12.04 aswell
[16:15] <Dragen> So what programming language does this "LXTerminal" use?
[16:15] <theadmin> Dragen: Bash is the default shell in Ubuntu.
[16:16] <Dragen> Which means that's what used when typing in it?
[16:16] <theadmin> Dragen: Pretty much.
[16:16] <Dragen> Or maybe that's not considered programming
[16:16] <Dragen> Oh ok
[16:16] <theadmin> Dragen: Well, it's not exactly programming, yeah.
[16:16] <Dragen> What is it then? Commanding, perhaps?
[16:16] <BluesKaj> mmmbud, then you probly need a flash update/upgrade or your browser flashplugin is misbehaving
[16:17] <Fira> Hey :D I got unsatisfiable cross-dependancies that prevents from installing/upgrading/removing anything :(... What can I do to get rid of them ?
[16:17] <theadmin> Dragen: Scripting, I suppose.
[16:17] <Fira> Apt advises running install -f but this results in roughly the same thing : impossible cross version requirements and no change
[16:18] <Dragen> Okay
[16:18] <Fira> I can't even use remove -f to get rid of packages regardless of deps to reinstall everything
[16:18] <Fira> So what now ?
[16:19] <k1l_> Fira: can you pastebin the "apt-get install -f" with output?
[16:19] <imarks> guys i have just installed ubuntu 12.10 32 bit in virtual box but i dont see a menu on my screen, how can i access the menu?
[16:20] <theadmin> imarks: Make sure 3D acceleration is enabled in VM properties
[16:22] <Fira> k1l_, sure: http://pastebin.com/dCRBFH9r
[16:23] <Fira> basically
[16:23] <Fira> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of initramfs-tools:
[16:23] <Fira>  initramfs-tools depends on initramfs-tools-bin (<< 0.99ubuntu13.1~); however:
[16:23] <Fira>   Version of initramfs-tools-bin on system is 0.103ubuntu0.2.
[16:24] <k1l_> Fira: which ubuntu is it? are there PPA or other sources? why are you root?
[16:24] <ambrose321> hello
[16:24] <L3top> Fira: this is almost always due to PPA conflicts. I assume you have stuff in /etc/apt/sources.list.d ?
[16:25] <Fira> PPA conflicts ? hmm
[16:25] <GH0> I seem to be having an issue with apt-get and purging/autoremoving/removing. Pastebin: http://pastebin.com/uYTXJff6
[16:25] <frantic> hey, anyone experienced the touchpad/keyboard  bug with ubuntu/xubuntu??
[16:25] <ambrose321> i'm wodering if someone can help me with a problem that I have with installing lubuntu in a separate partition (3 actually boot,root and home) alongside Fedora
[16:25] <Fira> Nope L3top & k1l_ , empty, i'm not running with any kind of custom sources
[16:26] <ambrose321> hen i have tried this in the past Grub is no longer showing Fedora at boot time
[16:26] <L3top> Fira: by ppa conflicts I mean conflicting/non-satisfyable dependencies caused by the PPA files in the repo. I see your last reply.
[16:26] <ambrose321> any ideas as to why that might be?
[16:26] <k1l_> Fira: please make a "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get upgrade" and show that again
[16:27] <Fira> already did :( in fact i also tried to run a do-release-upgrade - and as such, as of now i'm not sure wether this is technically a 12.04 or 12.10 ubuntu server (hopefully cloned it before)
[16:28] <cpare> hello - My computer hung while formatting a USB thumbdrive, and now I can't access it - can someone help me get it working again?
[16:29] <theadmin> Fira: Well, you could check with lsb_release -c
[16:29] <k1l_> Fira: what does "lsb_release -r " give you?
[16:29] <escott> ambrose321, run "update-grub"
[16:29] <k1l_> Fira: and then take a look into the /etc/apt/sources.list what is mentioned there
[16:30] <Fira> reads 12.10, but there were quite a few problems during the 12.10 upgrade due to apt-get failing to install pretty much everything in the same fashion
[16:30] <Fira> sources seems to be 12.04 >_>
[16:30] <Fira> i can rollback to 12.04 but already had the problem
[16:31] <theadmin> Fira: Well, that's pretty messed up... I don't think one can do much to fix it :/
[16:31] <theadmin> APT has no idea how to downgrade properly
[16:31] <aPpYe> Last night I installed from the mini.iso, I ran 'apt-get install $(cat /path/to/my/package/list)' inside of a screen session ... this morning I found it hung at downloading arialb32.exe from sourceforge.  I was able to gracefully shutdown the machine (shutdown -rF) and chose recovery mode and selected to repair broken packages.  Does this pick up the previously interrupted apt-get or does it simply run 'apt-get -f install' to get mi
[16:31] <aPpYe> ssing dependencies for packages that did install correctly?
[16:31] <k1l_> make a quantal instead of the precise in the sources list.
[16:31] <k1l_> and give it another apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:31] <Fira> Well it reads 10.04, but sources are quantal :P
[16:32] <Fira> 12.04*
[16:32] <k1l_> Fira: wait what?
[16:32] <eos> hi guys, anyone who knows about infrared devices on ubuntu? I do not seem to be able to work my irda dongle, I have been googling for 2 days.
[16:32] <Fira> Okay, okay, hang on, let me just roll back to pre-upgrade version, that'll be one less problem to sort out >_<
[16:32] <k1l_> Fira:  what reads 12.04 and what says in sources.list?
[16:33] <cpare> hello - My computer hung while formatting a USB thumbdrive, and now I can't access it - can someone help me get it working again?
[16:34] <escott> cpare, why not just reformat it again
[16:34] <karthikeyan> gnustep anyone?
[16:35] <aPpYe> well anyway, I guess it won't hurt to run the package install again after rebooting...
[16:35] <theadmin> cpare: If the partition table has been damaged you could recreate it with GParted or fdisk
[16:36] <cpare> theadmin - gpartd is giving me errors on the drive as well
[16:36] <theadmin> cpare: What is the error?
[16:37] <solar_sea> Hi. I've installed ubuntu 12.10 on a lvm logical volume, ext4. Then I added another logical volume (nilfs2), added nilfs2 to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, updated grub and managed to boot with nilfs2 as root.
[16:37] <WBF> I need help, just updated, pressed alt+enter to switch toa different Desktop environment and It just logs me in.
[16:37] <cpare> theadmin - "Libparted Bug Found! - Input/Output error during read on /dev/sdb"
[16:37] <escott> cpare, sounds like the usb is/was damaged
[16:37] <solar_sea> So far so good, but some scripts fails during boot time, and after that mount doesn't list the root mount :) the system works, but when mount doesn't list root as mounted, nilfs2 can't run it's cleaner deamon
[16:37] <escott> cpare, thats probably why it hung the first time you tried to format
[16:37] <L3top> Fira: k1l_ sounds like a do release broke because of some other broken thing... now sources are all jacked relating to the original breakage.
[16:38] <solar_sea> where are the logs from initrd boot process kept after boot, if any ?
[16:38] <theadmin> cpare: Eh. Sounds problematic alright, could you go to Device -> Recreate partition table and do that?
[16:38] <cpare> escott - nah, my laptop needs to be re-floated
[16:38] <archbsdace> WBF: alt+enter? you're meant to select the desktop at login
[16:38] <WBF> archbsdace, 12.10 :P
[16:38] <k1l_> L3top: there are some 12.10 packages which dont met 12.04 depencies. so maybe a upgrade to 12,10 will help if its still 12.04 sources
[16:39] <eos> I do not seem to be able to make it work but it is a 5 year old dongle, with an old chip.
[16:39] <cpare> theadmin - same error when I try to do that
[16:39] <Fira> L3top / k1l_ : Rolled back to old snapshot, lsb_release reads 12.04, sources are precise, ran apt-get update/upgrade, still got the same old problem running install -f : http://pastebin.com/9fMzuUw4
[16:39] <archbsdace> WBF: what do you expect alt+enter to do?
[16:40] <WBF> archbsdace, to let me select a desktop environment
[16:40] <archbsdace> WBF: where are you getting this from?
[16:40] <cpare> escott - I was in the process of making a boot USB to try out a FSF distro :)
[16:40] <k1l_> WBF: alt+enter doesnt do that
[16:40] <escott> WBF, you probably want to remove lightdm and install gdm
[16:41] <nbaleli> hello Im having troubles installing ubuntu on windows8 (newbie question)
[16:41] <frankenstein_> tell more or nobody is able to help
[16:41] <L3top> !info initramfs-tools-bin precise
[16:42] <Fira> hmm
[16:42] <k1l_> Fira: can you show a "sudo apt-get update" please?
[16:42] <L3top> something else is broken.... yes that ^
[16:42] <escott> nbaleli, it usually helps to disable secure boot so that there is one less thing to worry about
[16:42] <nbaleli> I install using windows installer. It finishes 1st step, then reboots into windows again
[16:42] <GH0> I am having problems with apt-get/dpkg as files that were needed for the packages removal were deleted. I have tried using the -f flag with apt-get, I tried doing an audit with dpkg, and now I am lost as to how to resolve the issue and get things back working the way they were so I can correctly install packages/remove packages
[16:43] <Fira> oh, gimme a moment please, VM is cloning :(
[16:43] <BluesKaj> frankenstein_, help with ?
[16:43] <nbaleli> escott I followed several how-to's on the web, no luck. Im a complete newbie with this
[16:43] <Nikon> hi there
[16:43] <sahin> hello
[16:43] <Nikon> i need to figure oiut how to add ubuntu to my windows 8 boot loader
[16:44] <nbaleli> Tried installin ubunto on my laptop aswell and encountered the same issue
[16:44] <Nikon> was trying easy bcd
[16:45] <BluesKaj> !uefi | Nikon
[16:45] <nbaleli> Altough a friend of mine installed ubuntu on his laptop, without windows, and it works flawlessly, and the system looks very very nice
[16:45] <L3top> Nikon: explain... I am guessing you installed ubuntu, and then you installed windows 8?
[16:45] <sahin> i cant get my ati radeon 6470m graphics card. i can use ubuntu desktop with no problem. but openGL is not working. any of you guys have an idea?
[16:45] <nwertman> Quick question.  I have a MacBook Air that will not boot any of the USB drives I have (firmware issue).  I've installed rEFIt and done a 'dd' to install the LiveCD onto a 2 gig partition that I have.  When I boot from there, I'm told 'isolinux.bin missing or corrupt'
[16:45] <Nikon> no L3top i had windows 8 first
[16:45] <nwertman> I'm running 10.8.2 (freshly update).  Unetbootin doesn't help and everything I've tried for USB booting fails.
[16:46] <L3top> Nikon: then ubuntu should have installed grub in the MBR. You should not be dealing with a win 8 bootloader.
[16:46] <archbsdace> !uefi | Nikon
[16:46] <Nikon> im reading
[16:47] <L3top> nwertman: whatever you are making the image with has an odd version of syslinux typically.
[16:47] <nwertman> Does anyone have any instructions on how to blast the LiveCD onto a single partition of my internal hard drive
[16:47] <nwertman> I downloaded the latest syslinux from the wiki and I grabbed mbr.bin from there.
[16:47] <lb27> nwertman: what dd command did you use?
[16:48] <WBF> nwertman, try PLoP boot manager
[16:48] <nwertman> This is from my latest attempt at USB booting: 'dd conv=notrunc bs=440 count=1 if=mbr.bin of=/dev/rdisk1'
[16:48] <blez> "Secure Boot" is a new UEFI feature that appeared in 2012, with Windows8 preinstalled computers. The support for this feature has started with Ubuntu 12.10 64bit (see this article) and 12.04.2 64bit, but it is not fully reliable yet, so you may need to disable it in order to be able to boot Ubuntu.
[16:48] <blez> what about 32bit?
[16:49] <escott> blez, i didnt think there was a win8 32bit
[16:49] <lb27> nwertman: why the count=1 ? afaik that wrote only 440b to the disk?
[16:49] <blez> escott there is
[16:49] <Boris_> escott: yes there was
[16:49] <nwertman> Following instructions here: 'http://perpetual-notion.blogspot.fr/2011/08/unetbootin-on-mac-os-x.html"
[16:49] <blez> that's why I'm asking.
[16:49] <escott> an oem version? or just an upgrade?
[16:50] <nwertman> I'm to the point where I'm just blindly following any site that gives me a new approach
[16:50] <amejia> hi
[16:50] <amejia> clear
[16:50] <sunsetlover> guys i need program to manage my mobile (Galaxy S III), any one can help
[16:50] <amejia> anybody here use DRUSH?
[16:51] <escott> blez, im pretty sure the 32bit version is bios only.
[16:51] <lb27> nwertman: ah, ok, I see where I was assuming wrong.  I'm used to just throwing the iso on the disk using dd, but i'm not mac..
[16:51] <escott> blez, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg463149.aspx
[16:52] <blez> escott mine tablet/laptop is with 32bit cpu and win8 x86
[16:52] <piglit> where can i find the usb devices mounted (?) like the keyboard etc ... i mean in the file structure
[16:52] <blez> and I wanted to install ubuntu on it, but UEFI wasn't supported at this time (month ago)
[16:52] <Fira> L3top / k1l_ : Well.. Nothing much new, http://pastebin.com/9fMzuUw4
[16:53] <escott> blez, i know ARM is completely locked down. again i didnt know there was a 32bit x86 tablet
[16:53] <k1l_> Fira: show the apt-get update please
[16:53] <Fira> it's @ top
[16:54] <blez> yea, Acer W510
[16:54] <k1l_> Fira: no its not
[16:54] <Fira> huh o_o?
[16:54] <Fira> oh
[16:55] <Fira> wrong link >.<'
[16:55] <Fira> http://pastebin.com/ULwPp5DY
[16:55] <Fira> sowry!
[16:55] <L3top> Fira: something is breaking initramfs' ability to configure... the problem is not initramfs, but something else down the pike that is not supposed to be there and cannot be loaded into the kernel, breaking dpkg. You need to find it. my guess is going to be libc6. apt-cache depends libc6  apt-cache rdepends libc6
[16:55] <jackarg> hello I would like assistance/guidance on installing ubuntu on my new acer (64 bit) running windows 8 thanks
[16:55] <relapse> Hi
[16:55] <Fira> Mhmh
[16:56] <L3top> apt-cache policy libc6
[16:56] <escott> jackarg, please be more specific. nbaleli same to you
[16:56] <relapse> I'm having a lot of problems with xubuntu. Logically it shouldnt be much different than Ubuntu with unity, but powermanagement, sound quality, and other tid bits are driving me nuts. Would it be benificial to install Ubuntu 12.10 and just install xubuntu-desktop? Or am I mistaken and there aren't any underlying differences between the two releases?
[16:57] <escott> relapse, logically it would be very very different from unity
[16:57] <relapse> escott: I know the UI, i mean drivers/modules etc
[16:57] <relapse> escott: I mean the underlying core ubuntu os.
[16:57] <escott> relapse, gnome starts a lot of daemons for the userspace. dbus, pulse, etc
[16:57] <dem0n> hmm...
[16:57] <L3top> it is my understanding that only arm8 is locked with win8 UEFI (though red-hat purchased a license)
[16:57] <dem0n> how is everyone doing today?...
[16:57] <L3top> escott: ^
[16:59] <escott> L3top, i think the "license" redhat bought was for x86 and its just a smaller fee (the same that is charged to hardware manufacturers who need to get their drivers signed)
[16:59] <jackarg> escott: I need help on a lot of subjects but mostly because I can't seem to get the computer to boot off the cd. it said the cd drive as blocked for security reasons. then, once i fixed that problem, I heard windows 8 wasn't always recognized by the ubuntu installer which is a problem since i want to dual boot. So if someone could help me with all of this it would be great!
[16:59] <dryhay> hi. I'm missing my ibus sometimes. could someone check it, please: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2116673
[16:59] <escott> jackarg, disable secure boot
[16:59] <jackarg> how? it's all in grey in the bios
[16:59] <Fira> Mmh... Well rdepends shows everything which seems logical, but i'm not too sure what else you want me to look in the rest: http://pastebin.com/kMPtaeiT. I don't assume it's normal for it to read that libc breaks nscd ?
[17:00]  * mmh ?
[17:00] <escott> jackarg, cant tell you thats specific to the manufacturer. per the "made for windows 8" contract it must be possible to disable it
[17:00]  * Fira woopses mmh
[17:00] <Nikon> hi
[17:00] <piglit> what location can i find the usb devises as the keyboard etc i can find with lsusb ?
[17:00] <Nikon> im back
[17:00] <Nikon> so what do i do now
[17:01] <escott> piglit, what location?
[17:01] <Nikon> i disabled that new fangled thing
[17:01] <Nikon> for the boot
[17:01] <jackarg> escott: but do you have any guidance on how do disable it somehow? point me to a thread?
[17:01] <L3top> aha... Fira... I would start trying to remove all of those conflicts first
[17:01] <piglit> escott: well if you mount a hd it is in media but where are the other usb devices ?
[17:01] <Nikon> L3top: hai
[17:01] <escott> jackarg, no. its specific to that bios. i dont know what it says or where it is
[17:01] <escott> jackarg, so unless you can tell me where i left my keys this morning. i can't tell you how to disable secure boot
[17:02] <L3top> Fira: if it suggests that this will hoze your system, and do you REALLY want to do it and makes you type "do as I say" do NOT>
[17:02] <escott> piglit, you don't mount devices
[17:02] <Fira> L3top: sure, but I can't remove anything since practically everything depends on the libc :(
[17:02] <blez> jackarg to disable secure boot, you must set a password first
[17:02] <blez> afaik.
[17:02] <L3top> libc is installed
[17:02] <Fira> Yeah
[17:02] <Nikon> L3top: so what do i do now?>\
[17:03] <L3top> libc does not depend on them...
[17:03] <L3top> What is the device Nikon
[17:03] <Fira> Must be understanding something backwards
[17:03] <piglit> escott: yes i know cant find the right word but there is a dir where the bus and device is
[17:03] <Nikon> hp envy m6
[17:03] <Nikon> im on my live cd atm
[17:03] <escott> piglit, do you want /dev/usb?
[17:03] <Fira> depend output reads "conflicts: tzdata", remove tzdata reads "libc depends on: tzdata"
[17:04] <jackarg> blez: you set a password in bios?
[17:04] <escott> piglit, /dev/bus/usb?
[17:04] <HiddenCloud> I need help on the ftp thing in ubuntu

[17:04] <HiddenCloud> how do I cd a folder that has spaces in it
[17:04] <L3top> it is installed, and conflicting with those packages it sees as installed Fira... I am not sure how this situation was created.... remove what you can that conflicts... or are you saying they all do?
[17:04] <HiddenCloud> it says whenever I cd it file not found
[17:04] <family`> any one
[17:04] <jackarg> thankyou all I will try

[17:06] <jrib> MadsRC: it shouldn't.  Can you show a series of commands that shows otherwise on a pastebin?
[17:06] <zanegray> MadsRC, really? i find that hard to believe
[17:06] <k1l_> family`: lets stick to ubuntu support in here, thanks
[17:06] <Nikon> :3
[17:06] <MadsRC> 2 secs :)
[17:07] <family`> k1l_: OK
[17:07] <L3top> R3TR0: what is the GPU? What driver?
[17:07] <Nikon> i know i just wanted to see what you would do
[17:07] <Nikon> anywho
[17:07] <Nikon> what was that link you all were saying last time?
[17:07] <udi> מי כאן?
[17:07] <Fira> L3top: pretty much anything fails due to unmet deps, including --reinstall'ing libc (even with -f) o_O' ... Might as well just reinstall from scratch, damned thing is a light install on a KVM host and all data is on a different drive... Thanks alot for the help anyhow :S
[17:07] <R3TR0> k1l, i asked him earlier. he told me to press strg alt f1 to open the console. i just tried that but the console didnt show up
[17:07] <udi> ?
[17:07] <udi> ?
[17:07] <L3top> Sorry Fira... that's an ugly rock and hard place
[17:08] <family`> ctrl+alt+T R3TR0
[17:08] <mussa> هاي
[17:08] <k1l_> R3TR0: then try to select the recovery entry in grub menue
[17:08] <MadsRC> You guys were right... Guess it was because I testet it through SMB on a windows machine... Deleting the link on a windows machine through smb deletes the content of the linked folder aswel as the link
[17:08] <R3TR0> ctrl alt and t works in the beginning too?
[17:08] <R3TR0> i start ubuntu and the login screen doesnt show up, only a blackscreen
[17:09] <k1l_> R3TR0: no that only works in the desktop mode
[17:09] <L3top> !hr | udi
[17:09] <k1l_> R3TR0: press shift to get to grub menu and select recovery there
[17:09] <L3top> hmmm... that looks quite wrong...
[17:09] <R3TR0> when do i have to press shift?
[17:09] <R3TR0> when the blackscreen shows up?
[17:09] <L3top> !il
[17:09] <Nikon> L3top: i hate to bug you but was it uedi?
[17:09] <L3top> thats it.
[17:09] <k1l_> R3TR0: when booting
[17:10] <R3TR0> booting? when exactly is that
[17:10] <L3top> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface Nikon
[17:10] <R3TR0> when i chose ubuntu or after it showed the blackscreen
[17:10] <k1l_> R3TR0: instead of choosing ubuntu you need to choose "ubuntu recovery"
[17:10] <GH0> How can I resolve this messag?  postgresql-contrib-9.1 : Depends: libossp-uuid16 but it is not going to be installed
[17:10] <L3top> family`: don't spam in pm.
[17:11] <GH0> Specifically about the part where it determines that it doesn't want to be installed.
[17:11] <GH0> I have tried doing autoclean, clean, purge, autoremove, update, etc. But I can't fix this problem that I am having with apt-get
[17:11] <k1l_> !guidelines > family`
[17:11] <R3TR0> so I start my PC, then there is the Option. I only have 3 options, Windows, Ubuntu and something like windows recovery
[17:12] <L3top> !nomodeset | R3TR0 I would try this. I am assuming you moved to a proprietary driver.
[17:12] <Nikon> pok
[17:12] <Nikon> ok
[17:12] <GH0> If I try to do a sudo apt-get -f install libossp-uuid16 I basically run into a bunch of errors with apt-get
[17:12] <Nikon> how do i over write my windows boot with grub
[17:13] <al__> is there a simple way to set up clamav to 'sudo freshclam' periodically and clamscan periodically without having to deal with cron jobs?
[17:13] <fuxkingUSA> shafou.com
[17:13] <fuxkingUSA> welcome to Jpan
[17:14] <L3top> Nikon: I would chroot the install from a live disk after binding/mounting a lot of things, and grub-install /dev/sd* where * is the drive number.
[17:14] <genii-around> !mbr
[17:14] <LadyNikon> woah there is a Nikon as well
[17:14] <L3top> ty genii-around
[17:14] <Nikon> Hai LadyNikon
[17:14] <Nikon> :3
[17:14] <L3top> That was a much nicer answer than mine... lol
[17:15] <R3TR0> how can i boot from a cd, i burnt the cd with the iso on the download page for ubuntu 12.04 LTS. is that the right one?
[17:16] <L3top> R3TR0: is this a wubi install?
[17:17] <L3top> R3TR0: sorry was confusing your issue with nikons
[17:17] <R3TR0> ahh ok
[17:18] <L3top> R3TR0: yes... that is a good one... but I do not understand the question. how do you boot from a CD? Is that the question?
[17:18] <R3TR0> yeah, kinda
[17:18] <robzye> hey guys im having some problems installing catalyst (amd) on ubuntu 12.10. running a 5xxx card with a i5 (intel). i've checked the web but everytime i find an answer there is always a little step that goes wrong which they don't explain :/
[17:18] <L3top> R3TR0: I would burn it to a usb drive, and in the bios of the device set the device order. The same can be done for CD
[17:18] <R3TR0> ive found this, is that the same? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromCD i guess so
[17:18] <L3top> *device boot order
[17:19] <R3TR0> well, i lost my usb so i have to use the cd
[17:19] <L3top> R3TR0: depending on the device, some have an f key you can hit at startup to choose the boot device, some you will have to change in the bios.
[17:20] <L3top> That is a good link to get you going R3TR0
[17:20] <R3TR0> ahh ok
[17:20] <R3TR0> well, ill try that now
[17:20] <R3TR0> if i still have a question ill come back
[17:21] <dem0n> got to run take care everyone
[17:21] <dem0n> got to play some shadowgun...i luv that game!
[17:21] <zumaz203> Does anyone know how to fix rezolution on login screen?  the upper buttons windows are out of place and cant see them
[17:23] <jyg> I'm using 12.04 for a few months now and just yesterday something strange started where a while after booting up the headphone jack will stop working.  If I shut my computer down, pull out the laptop battery, hit the power button, put the batter back, and then boot up, that's the only way normal headphone functionality is restored
[17:24] <jyg> the "stop working" means, when i plug in the headphone i get no audio from the headphones and the laptop speakers output the audio instead
[17:25] <SonikkuAmerica> jyg: Try [ sudo alsamixer ]
[17:25] <L3top> jyg I would like to see an output of sudo aplay -l in a pastebin
[17:26] <L3top> jyg: chances are this is a pulse issue.
[17:26] <jyg> ok sure... let me set something back to as they were before i started mucking around, and then i'll get that in paste bin, 2 min.  thanks, brb.
[17:27] <SonikkuAmerica> zumaz203, is this lightdm?
[17:27] <L3top> pulse audio... 60% of the time, it works every time.
[17:27] <zumaz203> SonikkuAmerica yes
[17:28] <nearst> hi ppl
[17:28] <SonikkuAmerica> zumaz203, one second...
[17:28] <al__> Does system monitor process list show cpu usage % for 1 of however many cores (ie, how much of a single core that process is using)?  Or does it average across what cpu resources are available?
[17:28] <escott> 60% seems to be a very low estimate
[17:28] <SonikkuAmerica> zumaz203: Run [ xrandr -q ] in a terminal for me.
[17:29] <L3top> every time is a bold statement. I think the math works
[17:29] <escott> al__, at the process level it would show aggregate usage. so with 4 processors one process can use up to 400% of cpu
[17:29] <SonikkuAmerica> L3top: LOL. I believe the Pulse issue got fixed in 12.10, correct me if I'm wrong.
[17:29] <samiasm> can somebody help me with getting my wifi USB to work?
[17:29] <ikillcypher> hi guys how to check if im using x86 or x64 ubuntu
[17:29] <SonikkuAmerica> L3top: That is, the one jyg mentioned
[17:29] <robzye> Ubuntu - the place that make all window's users press 'automatic installation'. why is everything so compliacted ;_;
[17:30] <al__> escott: ah, thanks.  so with 4 cores, 400% is really 100% of capacity.
[17:30] <SonikkuAmerica> ikillcypher: [ uname -a ]
[17:30] <escott> ikillcypher, uname -i
[17:30] <L3top> lotta weird hw out there... gets gooey with subdevices like weirdo swap pluggable headphone jacks in my experience... that could be very true SonikkuAmerica... I am not on quantal... I am a dinosaur.
[17:30] <escott> al__, yes
[17:30] <ikillcypher> i686 ?
[17:30] <ikillcypher> what is that
[17:30] <genii-around> ikillcypher: Or even just uname -i
[17:30] <escott> al__, and fully loaded is 4
[17:30] <SonikkuAmerica> ikillcypher: i686 is advanced 32-bit arch.
[17:30] <escott> ikillcypher, 32bit
[17:31] <ikillcypher> so how do I get a 64bit ubuntu
[17:31] <SonikkuAmerica> L3top: What do mean, dinosaur?
[17:31] <ikillcypher> as I need it for android building
[17:31] <escott> ikillcypher, download the 64bit version and install it
[17:31] <ikillcypher> no other way of upgrading ?
[17:31] <escott> ikillcypher, no
[17:31] <tgm4883_> ikillcypher, nope
[17:31] <L3top> 10.04 is my main use SonikkuAmerica.
[17:31] <SonikkuAmerica> ikillcypher: Make sure your computer is 64-bit capable though.
[17:31] <SonikkuAmerica> L3top: Oh.
[17:32] <samiasm> wifi specialists in here?
[17:32] <ikillcypher> 4GB RAM
[17:32] <SonikkuAmerica> (I could've warned zumaz203 about that.)
[17:32] <genii-around> ikillcypher: To find out if your system is 64bit capable: udo lshw -C cpu| grep width
[17:32] <escott> ikillcypher, so?
[17:32] <tgm4883_> ikillcypher, pastebin 'lscpu'
[17:32] <L3top> samiasm: just ask the real question... if someone knows they will answer
[17:32] <jyg> L3top:   http://pastebin.com/nhn01Df9
[17:33] <SonikkuAmerica> samiasm: If it's Ubuntu-related, we'll gladly answer. Be specific.
[17:33] <genii-around> ikillcypher: I cropped the "s" out of suso in that command, but you get the idea
[17:33] <SonikkuAmerica> *sudo
[17:33] <ikillcypher> yes I did
[17:33] <ikillcypher> width: 64 bits
[17:33] <ikillcypher>  width: 64 bits
[17:33] <ikillcypher>  width: 64 bits
[17:33] <FloodBot1> ikillcypher: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:34] <genii-around> ikillcypher: So, yes, your computer will do the 64bit version
[17:34] <k-stz> compdoc: hey I solved the boot problem: apparently my hdd wasn't "high" enough in the boot sequence of the bios setup...
[17:34] <L3top> Not what I was hoping would be the prob jyg. My guess still lands with pulse.
[17:35] <compdoc> k-stz, yup
[17:35] <samiasm> I got a TL-WN822N and I downloaded drivers from linux wireless. After compiling nothing works. Worked fine before. Had to recompile cause of kernel update
[17:35] <jyg> L3top: what were you suspecting?
[17:35] <ikillcypher> where do I get the x64 bit and I just install over ?
[17:35] <L3top> jyg: I was hoping that you would have two subdevices, one of which being the headphones jack.
[17:36] <samiasm> 12.04 64 bit is what I am using btw
[17:36] <Lofde_> i am ssh'd into a ubuntu box, and i have a command i want to run (i am just running google chrome /opt/google...) i want to 'launch' this on the x:0 screen (tty7) what flags or additions do i need to add in there to tell this thing to run this on the screen of the remote host and not in the ssh window i am logged into?
[17:36] <SonikkuAmerica> samiasm: Compilation or run-time errors?
[17:36] <SonikkuAmerica> ikillcypher: http://ubottu.com/y/dl
[17:36] <L3top> jyg: that I can fix... my pulse fix is always the same. Remove it. See if it does what you want. I fear that is not the recommended solution.
[17:36] <jyg> L3top:  what was stranger, before my full power-off, i booted to windows and it suffered the same problem.  its almost as those the audio system on ubuntu freaks the card out in some way
[17:37] <blez> Have a new PC with the Windows 8 logo or using UEFI firmware?
[17:37] <blez> Please use a 64-bit flavour of Ubuntu desktop.
[17:37] <blez> Learn more ›
[17:37] <mihajlo> hy I need help
[17:37] <blez> what about 32bit ?
[17:37] <samiasm> don't think so. Can I redo the process to find out if there are any errors?
[17:37] <FloodBot1> blez: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:37] <L3top> jyg: not the answer... more likely hardware problem if it is floating across OSs
[17:37] <SonikkuAmerica> blez: (Please watch your flooding) Typically because Windows 8 hardware and UEFI hardware use 64-bit processors.
[17:38] <SonikkuAmerica> blez: You'll NEED the 64-bit version to run it on UEFI hardware.
[17:38] <zlatan> hi, when I start skype I get Segmentation fault...what is solution to this?
[17:38] <escott> Lofde_, you want it to display on the ssh servers X server and not on the ssh clients X server
[17:38] <mihajlo> I instaled ubuntu 12.10 on my new notebook and i cant boot, i get error 'starting cpu interrupts balancing daemon'
[17:39] <Lofde_> escott, yes
[17:39] <escott> Lofde_, in that case you would "export DISPLAY=:0"
[17:39] <mihajlo> can someone help....
[17:39] <mihajlo> I instaled ubuntu 12.10 on my new notebook and i cant boot, i get error 'starting cpu interrupts balancing daemon'
[17:39] <SonikkuAmerica> !patience | mihajlo
[17:39] <escott> Lofde_, and then probably also set XAUTHORITY=~/.Xauthority
[17:40] <dmku> samiasm, i'm not sure, that you had to build the driver. This page tell, that  one of default modules supports your device: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsTP-Link
[17:40] <SonikkuAmerica> mihajlo: You'll need to send "nomodeset" to GRUB for your install to work
[17:40] <Lofde_>  /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome  --start-maximized --kiosk http://www.google.com   (here is my command escott where in that would those strings go)
[17:41] <samiasm> it does. The connection broke down often though and it got better after building the new drivers. I just have to recompile after kernel updates which is pretty annoying
[17:41] <mihajlo> SonikkuAmerica: can you explain me how to do that, im new to linux...
[17:41] <blez> SonikkuAmerica so, no 32bit support.. ever?
[17:41] <SonikkuAmerica> mihajlo: To do that, when the Ubuntu start screen shows up from your live media, hit F6 and select "nomodeset" from the menu.
[17:41] <escott> Lofde_, you will need to use env or run it in a shell
[17:41] <escott> Lofde_, if you dont want to export that is
[17:42] <SonikkuAmerica> blez: I didn't say that, but 32-bit installs simply do not work on UEFI Secure Boot. They will if you still have a BIOS though.
[17:42] <SonikkuAmerica> *They = 32-bit installs
[17:42] <escott> Lofde_, you can locally declare env variables for a command with bash as VARIABLE=value /executable --options
[17:42] <blez> so when will a 32bit version be released? Any info?
[17:43] <SonikkuAmerica> blez: There are 32-bit versions on Ubuntu's download page: http://ubottu.com/y/dl
[17:43] <escott> SonikkuAmerica, is that true? i know the boot loader would have to be a 64bit bootloaders, but can a 64bit bootloader not boot a 32bit kernel?
[17:43] <blez> no, 32bit version that work with UEFI
[17:44] <escott> blez, there are some complexities because with bios it is in 16bit mode until the kernel starts, with UEFI64 (which is what windows has) then it is in 64bit mode before the kernel is booted
[17:44] <tgm4883_> blez, read this for more info https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1025555
[17:44] <SirNikon> hi
[17:44] <escott> blez, besides 64bit is better and you have the hardware so just use it
[17:44] <Lofde_> escott, sweet thank you!
[17:44] <tgm4883_> escott, +1
[17:44] <blez> I don't have the hardware..
[17:44] <blez> my cpu is 32bit
[17:44] <ikonia> that's unlikley
[17:44] <hunterdouglas> Hello, I am having some difficulty interpreting the output of fdisk -l on a dedicated server i just rented, I am told that there are 4 physical HDDs, 2 120GB SSD's and 2 2TB HDD's, the SSD's being used in raid1 and the HDD's not being mounted or partitioned yet,
[17:44] <ikonia> as yoiu have an EFI board
[17:44] <escott> blez, then you dont have Windows 8 UEFI
[17:45] <SonikkuAmerica> escott: You are correct. A 32-bit EFI can boot a 32-bit kernel; a 64-bit EFI can boot a 64-bit kernel, but neither EFI can load the opposite kernel (is my understanding).

[17:45] <blez> Acer W510
[17:45] <blez> it's a tablet/laptop
[17:46] <SonikkuAmerica> "OS kernel architecture (32 or 64-bit) must be the same as the EFI architecture (unless "eficross" is used, which is available from kernel 3.4)"
[17:46] <hunterdouglas> can you help me interpret this?  fdisk -l output http://pastebin.com/jWKLKqaG
[17:46] <SirNikon> how do i fix this
[17:46] <SirNikon> http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z421/karou_/50BBB77F-F204-467D-8BE6-EBA4DB950556-1805-000000FA434EDBFA_zpsccab7a40.jpg
[17:46] <tgm4883_> blez, I doubt you are using UEFI on that
[17:46] <SonikkuAmerica> So if one has 12.10 and eficross it might work.
[17:46] <rhughes> hello
[17:46] <blez> tgm4883 it's uefi.
[17:47] <ikonia> blez: then you have a 64bit cpu
[17:47] <blez> SonikkuAmerica I tried 12.10 with wubi, month ago, it didn't worked
[17:47] <blez> ikonia read the specs
[17:47] <hunterdouglas> i would like to use the 2 TB HDD's as /home but i am at a loss for the use of fdisk
[17:48] <escott> hunterdouglas, don't use fdisk. use parted or gparted
[17:48] <ikonia> blez: that cpu won't be on an EFI board though
[17:48] <SirNikon> LadyNikon: hey
[17:48] <ikonia> blez: what board are you using
[17:49] <tgm4883_> blez, Note: The 32-bit editions of Windows don't support UEFI features. Only 64-bit editions of Windows can take advantage of the features that 64-bit UEFI firmware enables. Fortunately, the CSM in current UEFI implementations enables 32-bit operating systems and other operating systems that don't support UEFI to boot on hardware that has UEFI firmware. But, operating systems that require a CSM to boot can't use UEFI-specific features because the
[17:49] <tgm4883_>  CSM emulates earlier BIOS.
[17:49] <tgm4883_> so it sounds like it's just running in legacy mode
[17:50] <scooby> I am running xubuntu and have two users.  I would like the system to auto-log-in to the user scooby when the system starts rather than asking me whih user.  How do I do this?
[17:50] <JimmyNeutron> After installing Ubuntu 12.10 in VBox 4.2.6, it ask me to hit enter to reboot.  After hitting the Enter key, the system says "The system is going down for reboot now!" and just hangs there.  Anyone encounter this?
[17:50] <tgm4883_> yes, CSM is the BIOS mode
[17:50] <blez> I have no idea from UEFI
[17:50] <hunterdouglas> escott:  i still do not understand what i am looking for exactly, never done anything like this before
[17:50] <blez> my older laptops didn't had it
[17:51] <tgm4883_> blez, basically, you are using BIOS mode
[17:51] <blez> I'm pretty sure it's UEFI..
[17:51] <tgm4883_> blez, so just install 32-bit ubuntu
[17:51] <blez> it didn't worked.
[17:51] <tgm4883_> blez, did you not just read what I posted
[17:51] <tgm4883_> blez, for what reason didn't it work?
[17:51] <escott> hunterdouglas, well start by describing what you need to do
[17:52] <blez> I don't know. After rebooting with WUBI it said something like "Fixing problems..." it took like 30mins and after restart it runned win8 again
[17:52] <blez> that was month+ ago
[17:52] <hunterdouglas> i have a server, with 4 physical hard drives in it, i am told that they are in 2 raid 1 pairs. i need to know where each partition is currently mounted, if even mounted. and configure them so that the 2TB disks are mounted as /home
[17:53] <gigatropolis> is there a schedule for adding libreoffice 4.0 to ubuntu 12.10 ?
[17:53] <JimmyNeutron> hunterdouglas, run mount
[17:53] <escott> hunterdouglas, and cat /proc/mdstat
[17:53] <blez> and that was with disabled secureboot
[17:54] <benjad> Anybody good with install issues.  Savage S3 video card, trying to install.  worked in 12.04, can't get usable screen on live CD to install on 12.10 for ubuntu, or lubuntu
[17:54] <ikonia> savage S3 - wow, that's old
[17:55] <benjad> yup, tried lubuntu, but screen always corrupts, so came back to ubuntu, and having same issue.. worked in 12.04
[17:55] <benjad> can't install from graphic live cd
[17:55] <ikonia> tried safe graphics mode
[17:55] <k1l_> gigatropolis: i dont think that is gonna to happen
[17:56] <SonikkuAmerica> benjad: Try using "nomodeset": When the Ubuntu start menu pops up, select you language, press F6 and select "nomodeset" from the menu.
[17:56] <benjad> how do I get to it
[17:56] <hunterdouglas> right now /dev/md2 is on /home (98GB) and /dev/md0 is on /data (1908GB)
[17:57] <benjad> screen is corrupted from the get-go.. the I get the    symbol = symbol, and the 12.10 , but hte 1st menu screen is corrupted, can;t get to launguage slection
[17:57] <escott> hunterdouglas, and what do you want
[17:57] <hunterdouglas> i would like to switch them around so that /dev/md0 is on /home 1908GB, and /dev/md2 is on /data 98 GB
[17:57] <R3TR0> im back, i managed to start booting from the cd and opened the console
[17:57] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: just change the mount points in fstab and reboot
[17:57] <escott> hunterdouglas, well thats going to be time consuming. you will just have to copy everything around
[17:57] <ikonia> or unmount/remount
[17:57] <hunterdouglas> escott:  it is a brand new server with nothing AFAIK in either location
[17:57] <SonikkuAmerica> benjad: That giant menu that you see after the "symbol = symbol" won't appear?
[17:58] <khaos> hello, is there anyway to remap the fn keyboard shortcuts for a laptop? I'm using 12.10 64
[17:58] <escott> hunterdouglas, then just change the mountpoints in /etc/fstab
[17:58] <benjad> yup.. i get the equals screen.. the 12.10 with the changing dots appears, but the menu is corrupt.  same thing happens with lubuntu
[17:58] <R3TR0> l3top, is there a list of drivers which you can download from the "Additional Drivers" tab?
[17:59] <SonikkuAmerica> benjad: You are aware that you have to select "Try Ubuntu" or "Install Ubuntu" first?
[17:59] <L3top> R3TR0: if you can tell me what your hardware is, I can tell you the best driver for it
[17:59] <SonikkuAmerica> benjad: before you get all that
[17:59] <hunterdouglas> change mount points then reboot? that simple?
[17:59] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: yup
[17:59] <hunterdouglas> huh, thanks ikonia , escott. you two have been wonderful
[18:00] <R3TR0> i5 CPU 3.20 GHz 6 GB RAM Ati Radeon HD 5750 64 Bit
[18:00] <alo21> hi...
[18:01] <L3top> R3TR0: give me a second and I will give you a pastebin of what to do
[18:01] <escott> hunterdouglas, you will have a small set of files in /home you should copy over but it wont be much
[18:01] <R3TR0> L3top: the thing is, that ive installed a driver from the additional drivers and i want to uninstall it. is that possible if i boot from the cd and use the console there?
[18:01] <hunterdouglas> actually, there was no data at all escott
[18:02] <JimmyNeutron> hunterdouglas, If it's a clean system with not much data on it, why not just reinstall again from scratch?
[18:02] <khaos> hello, is there anyway to remap the fn keyboard shortcuts for a laptop? I'm using 12.10 64
[18:02] <escott> hunterdouglas, /home wont be empty
[18:02] <hunterdouglas> JimmyNeutron: i dont have access to reinstall and configure
[18:02] <hunterdouglas> escott:  i have looked, there was nothing in /home
[18:03] <escott> hunterdouglas, that should not be the case
[18:03] <JimmyNeutron> hunterdouglas, Doing it remotely? if yes, then okay.
[18:03] <L3top> http://www.pastebin.ca/2316914
[18:03] <L3top> R3TR0: ^
[18:04] <L3top> R3TR0: type exit when done so you arent running amok as root
[18:04] <esph> Any recommendations for a backup software? I'll be RMA-ing a laptop, which will be wiped (because they test it with windows, they say), and I want to be able to return it like it was when it gets back.
[18:04] <yeats> !backup | esph
[18:04] <R3TR0> so i paste these lines you sent me
[18:04] <R3TR0> and after that is done i write "exit"
[18:05] <R3TR0> is that right?
[18:05] <yeats> esph: I would personally avoid deja dup/duplicity for that, FYI
[18:05] <jackarg> hello I have an acer with windows 8 64 bit and I want to know why the ubuntu cd installer goes straight to the demo version and dosen't give me the standard option menu
[18:06] <yeats> jackarg: you can press a key when booting to get the menu
[18:06] <esph> yeats: so HomeUserBackup or MondoMindi would work for me?
[18:06] <jackarg> yeats: what do you mean?
[18:06] <dmku> I have question about output redirecting. For ex, I try to test logrotate: #logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.conf > logtest
[18:06] <dmku> But only part of output will be redirected to file, and other strings will be displayed on the standard output. What can I do to redirect all output of this command?
[18:06] <ania_> you are being watched
[18:07] <hunterdouglas> either way, i got it now with no ill effects, it was literally a fresh install of 10.04, Old i know but some of my software has issues with the version of vsftpd bundled with 12.04 +
[18:07] <yeats> esph: I haven't used those.  The reason for my cautioning against duplicity/deja dup is that the files are stored opaquely and are not easily browseable.
[18:07] <L3top> correct R3TR0
[18:07] <yeats> jackarg: when the live cd starts you can press a key to get to the menu
[18:08] <yeats> jackarg: it doesn't present the menu by default
[18:08] <jackarg> so before it goes into the live demo version I press any key for it to show up?
[18:09] <relapse> Hi, is it worth installing the 13.04 beta? Or should I just wait another month.
[18:09] <archbsdace> relapse: best to wait till release
[18:09] <archbsdace> relapse: if you do decide to try before release help is in #ubuntu+1
[18:10] <yeats> jackarg: I don't have one handy to test, but yes, I think it will come up with any key - if not, maybe Esc or shift?
[18:10] <relapse> Word
[18:10] <BluesKaj> relapse, lots of ppl are trying 13.04 , includiong me , best to ask in #ubuntu+1 though
[18:11] <R3TR0> L3top: The lines after <enter password>, do i paste all of them at once in or one after one
[18:11] <relapse> I'm experiencing a lot of issues with xubuntu that I do NOT experience in ubuntu. Would I experience the same issues if I installed ubuntu and then xubuntu-desktop?
[18:11] <bodq> can you recomment a tiling window manager? I've tried ion3 and xmonad. are there other worthwhile options?
[18:11] <relapse> bodq: dwm

[18:12] <hunterdouglas> i cannot seem to install openjdk-7-jre using apt-get any tips?
[18:12] <JimmyNeutron> Anyone still encountering the Low graphics mode error every now and then?  Most of the time, it boots up fine, but every now and then, I encounter the low graphics mode.
[18:12] <JimmyNeutron> this is 12.10 w/ all the latest patch and Bumblebee installed
[18:12] <bodq> relapse, thanks. did you it with xinerama?
[18:12] <relapse> nah
[18:12] <dmku> bodq awesome is awesome.
[18:13] <napster> Please let me know if anyone succeeds in dual booting your GNex with Android and Ubuntu
[18:13] <jackarg> yeats: i pressed all that while there was the ubuntu logo on the purple bkg with the loading dots. It jumped straight to the live version.

[18:20] <ikonia> !info openjdk-7-jre
[18:20] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: package is valid, update your repo cache and check again
[18:21] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: keep in mind it's a 12.10 package
[18:21] <ikonia> (in that example)
[18:21] <hunterdouglas> used apt-get update several times, still gives me no installation candidate error
[18:21] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: please read what I just said
[18:21] <synaesthetik> I am trying to install  a dualboot of ubuntu studio with osx and I keep getting this error: attempt to mount a file system with type vfat in sda1 failed
[18:22] <hunterdouglas> ikonia:  half of what you just said i do not understand fully
[18:22] <ikonia> synaesthetik: what model macbook
[18:22] <synaesthetik> late 2009
[18:22] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: ok - so what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[18:22] <synaesthetik> I forget the exact number
[18:22] <ikonia> synaesthetik: are you using refit ?
[18:22] <synaesthetik> yes
[18:22] <hunterdouglas> 10.04 server 64 bit
[18:22] <ikonia> synaesthetik: you're disk shoudn't be "vfat" as far as I'm aware

[18:23] <chiptek> Hallo! I installed Ubuntu 12.10 earlier and I was wondering if this channel could give me some instructions if it's possible to move the sidebar to a "traditional" taskbar at the bottom. 'tis driving me quite mad.
[18:23] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: ok, so that is not a valid 10.04 package from the official ubuntu repos
[18:23] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: so either your other machines are not 10.04 or you are using an external repo
[18:23] <hunterdouglas> that is going to be an issue then. i need java 7 for some apps to run, guess i should restart with 11.10
[18:24] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: 11.10 is out of support
[18:24] <ikonia> (pretty much)
[18:24] <hunterdouglas> i CANT user 12+
[18:24] <decci> Hi Guys
[18:24] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: why ?
[18:24] <FrankieBoyz> hi
[18:24] <synaesthetik> ikonia i didn't format anything as vfat
[18:24] <hunterdouglas> vsftpd issues with the management software i use prevents FTP access except to SFTP users, and i need access to standard FTP as well
[18:25] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: ...sorry don't see how that's a problem with a 12.X release ?
[18:25]  * FrankieBoyz Picture of my whore cheating ex-girlfriend naked: http://imagetwist.com/isaz6v8d77nj
[18:25] <decci> I tried installing Clonezilla on Ubuntu 12.04. I can PXE boot client machine through server though I am facing some issue. All I would like to know how shall I configure server so that I can push Windows Xp images for client to get installed
[18:25] <ikonia> decci: did we suggest where to get this information eaerlier ?
[18:26] <ikonia> earlier
[18:26] <decci> ikonia: Yes
[18:26] <ikonia> decci: ok, good, so you know where to get it
[18:26] <decci> ikonia: But I am not getting help from the forum
[18:26] <rainy> i cant join ircnet :o
[18:26] <hunterdouglas> the problem is the management software i use automatically installs the most recent version of VSFTPD, which has issues with this software when ran on 12+, when ran on 10.04 10.10 or 11.04, it runs fine with no issues
[18:26] <ikonia> decci: that is the place to get the help
[18:26] <trollboy> I'm out of hardware and a long time linux user.. aeons ago when the earth was young I abandoned ATI cards in favor of being a Nvidia brand whore.. has ATI decided to play nice with linux now, or should I stick with Nvidia?
[18:26] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: vsftpd work on 12.x
[18:27] <ikonia> trollboy: tone it down
[18:27] <escott> hunterdouglas, sftp is unrelated to ftp
[18:27] <hunterdouglas> not with the software I am using it doesnt
[18:27] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: I assure you it does
[18:27] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: it's an ftp server
[18:27] <trollboy> ikonia, sorry, I should have said "fanboy", but that said... my question still stands, is ATI linux-safe or should I stick with Nvidia?
[18:27] <ikonia> nothing more
[18:27] <ikonia> trollboy: it's the toss of a coin, depends on your specific hardware, research the cards you want to buy
[18:27] <archbsdace> trollboy: both work here
[18:28] <hunterdouglas> ikonia:  http://www.ehcp.net/?q=node/1391
[18:28] <cerebrate> how do i change my color scheme to reversed emphasis, in the sense of visible text on an invisible background like in the old programs, in xchat
[18:28] <trollboy> awesome... I remember back in the day ATI required a lot of heavy handed hacking.. I'm more of a fire and forget it kinda guy
[18:28] <Hasselsaurus> NVidia tends to play nicer with proprietary drivers in my experience
[18:28] <trollboy> thanks!
[18:28] <Hasselsaurus> If you have the option, still go NVidia or Intel, IMO
[18:28] <Bauer> is there any way to allow Ubuntu's Terminal in GTK to copy text when I select it? like Putty does in windows
[18:28] <Hasselsaurus> but both do work
[18:28] <rahulsuman> hi
[18:29] <SiegeLord> Does ubuntu get it's packages from Debian unstable or Debian testing?
[18:29] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: just reading
[18:29] <escott> SiegeLord, i think it has varied based on the release. usually it is from unstable?
[18:29] <trollboy> SiegeLord, I don't believe so, not for some time
[18:30] <maxbit> hy
[18:30] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: there is a fix in that forum post
[18:30] <hunterdouglas> yeah, removing 2.5 and installing 2.3 which i have had no luck with
[18:31] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: no
[18:31] <Guest28754> can someone please explain to the the steps of finding a drive thats plugged in and mounting that drive?
[18:31] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: changing the chroot_local_user setting
[18:31] <maxbit> can some one help me with my touch screen i have 3 monitors and one of them has a touch surface but if i touch on it takes the whole desktop as a reference is there a way to bind it on a display???
[18:32] <hunterdouglas> this one sudo sed -i 's/chroot_local_user=YES/chroot_local_user=NO/g' /etc/vsftpd.conf sudo service vsftpd restart ?
[18:32] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: that says it's tested and working
[18:32] <trollboy> has ubuntu sussed out 3+ monitors on multiple video cards yet?
[18:33] <trollboy> that was an issue like.. 6 months ago
[18:33] <ikonia> trollboy: that's not an ubuntu issue
[18:33] <hunterdouglas> well i guess i am going to spend another 2 hours reinstalling and configuring again...
[18:33] <ikonia> trollboy: that's an issue with certain propritary drivers
[18:33] <rahulsuman> can someone please suggest me a channel for a irc newbie?
[18:33] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: I'really suggest checking information properly
[18:33] <archbsdace> rahulsuman: #freenode
[18:34] <jackarg> I have now the ubuntu installer running on my acer which i bought with windows 8 (64 bit) and it does not recognize windows 8 as an operating system. I now need to edit a partition I think, but I have no idea how. Any help or other options?
[18:34] <rahulsuman> thanks, and how do i leave this channel
[18:34] <archbsdace> rahulsuman: /part
[18:34] <hunterdouglas> i am sorry ikonia, i dont have to go through this very often, and i can not remember absolutely every detail
[18:34] <ikonia> rahulsuman: /part
[18:34] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: it's fine, it's just wise to check things out before rushing into assumptions
[18:34] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: eg: the thread you said showed it worked...also gave a solution if you read it fully
[18:35] <hunterdouglas> yeah, i wasnt trying to assume anything i just remember i used to use 10.04 without any issues at all, so i wanted to go back to it after running into countless issues with 12.04 on my last server
[18:35] <hunterdouglas> ill put a ticket in to reinstall to 12.04 then, Thanks again ikonia
[18:36] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: if you hit problems, come back and we'll worth them through
[18:36] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: I'm confident any issue will be config rather than a genuine blocker
[18:36] <hunterdouglas> yep, thanks ikonia you have been a wonderful help
[18:36] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: vsftpd has been stable for a long time and it's just a dumb ftp server....it's hard to "break" it
[18:37] <hunterdouglas> should i go with 12.04 or 12.10
[18:37] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: 12.04 if you want an LTS supported server
[18:37] <hunterdouglas> k ty
[18:38] <HQRaja> Hello. I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my HP Pavilion dv6 and when I connect it to my Dell ST2420L monitor via HDMI, nothing happens. I also checked in System Settings > Display, and the only monitor available is the Laptop one. Can anyone please help with this?
[18:39] <HQRaja> The machine has ATI Mobility Radeon Premium Graphics card, though I haven't configured any additional drivers for it post installation. Will I need to do that?
[18:39] <ikonia>  /last trollboy
[18:40] <HQRaja> ikonia: In case you're referring to me, I'm not trolling.
[18:40] <ikonia> HQRaja: err no
[18:41] <HQRaja> Oh OK
[18:42] <HQRaja> So, anyone?

[18:47] <HQRaja> MonkeyDust: Thanks, I haven't but judging by the URL, I think this will help.

[18:50] <ikonia> synaesthetik: what can I help with ?
[18:50] <synaesthetik> the vfat error in install
[18:50] <synaesthetik> same thing
[18:50] <ikonia> synaesthetik:....ok, so check sda1 - see what file system is on it, then look at how / why it's trying to mount it vfat if it's not vfat
[18:51] <mihajlo> I instaled ubuntu 12.10 on my new notebook and i cant boot, i get error 'starting cpu interrupts balancing daemon'...
[18:51] <synaesthetik> sda is the refit partition
[18:51] <synaesthetik> sda1 i mean
[18:51] <ikonia> synaesthetik: sda is a disk
[18:51] <ikonia> ahh ok
[18:51] <ikonia> so that maybe why it's vfat
[18:51] <ikonia> synaesthetik: so what part of the process is erroring ?
[18:52] <mihajlo> I instaled ubuntu 12.10 on my new notebook and i cant boot, i get error 'starting cpu interrupts balancing daemon'
[18:52] <angs> how can I delete a .deb package that is installed by dpkg -i
[18:52] <ikonia> angs: dpkg will remove it

[18:52] <mihajlo> ikonia can you help?
[18:52] <ikonia> synaesthetik: so this is he installer that's failing, not the boot process /
[18:53] <synaesthetik> right
[18:53] <ikonia> synaesthetik: ok, can you manually check sda1 - see what state it's in
[18:53] <synaesthetik> how do i do that?
[18:53] <synaesthetik> gparted?
[18:53] <ikonia> synaesthetik: manually try to mount it, gparted, sure
[18:54] <mihajlo> ikonia: I have boot problem can you help....
[18:54] <ikonia> mihajlo: not at the moment,
[18:54] <synaesthetik> ikonia i don't think i can mount with gparted
[18:54] <synaesthetik> what is the terminal command
[18:55] <ikonia> synaesthetik: 1.) check if /dev/sda1 exists 2.) try to mount it if it does, 3.) check the contents of it (should be empty if it can't mount it)
[18:55] <archbsdace> synaesthetik: mount /dev/whatever /mountpoint
[18:55] <OerHeks> mihajlo, maybe the nomodeset option helps booting
[18:56] <OerHeks> !nomodeset
[18:56] <jackarg> can anybody help with creating a partition when installing ubuntu on windows 8?
[18:56] <synaesthetik> archsdace: what if i'm running a live boot cd
[18:57] <wachpwnski> why does linux quality seem to be sucking more and more this year?
[18:57] <synaesthetik> what would the mountpoint be
[18:57] <archbsdace> synaesthetik: the mount command doesn't differ
[18:57] <ikonia> synaesthetik: anything you want
[18:57] <wachpwnski> mint, arch etc. all failing terribly
[18:57] <archbsdace> wachpwnski: this channel is for ubuntu support
[18:59] <wachpwnski> archbsdace:  good, what is a good way to go about getting ubuntu installed minified with cinnamon?
[18:59] <ikonia> wachpwnski: you don't do that
[18:59] <archbsdace> wachpwnski: cinnamon isn't supported on ubuntu
[18:59] <energy> !ru
[18:59] <wachpwnski> :/ now we can add ubuntu to that list
[19:00] <mihajlo> can some one help me with seting up nomodeset... im new to this and cant understand most of the things
[19:00] <escott> mihajlo, starting cpu interrupts daemon is not an error
[19:01] <mihajlo> escott: i know its not error i misstiped... but anyway it stops there
[19:02] <mihajlo> escott: can you help me with seting nomode...
[19:02] <escott> !nomodeset | mihajlo
[19:02] <synaesthetik> k ikonia it isn't letting me mount from here
[19:02] <ikonia> synaesthetik: ok, I suspect that is your problem
[19:02] <metasansana> Does ubuntu have a javascript library?
[19:02] <ikonia> synaesthetik: did you verify the partition exists
[19:03] <ikonia> metasansana: it's not a library
[19:03] <energy> 1
[19:03] <metasansana> ikonia: what is it then and where do I find it/
[19:03] <mihajlo> escott: i saw that but still not get it...(im noob).. where to write that code?
[19:03] <synaesthetik> the partition is showing up on gparted
[19:03] <ikonia> metasansana: it's part of your browser
[19:03] <jackarg> can anybody help me with partitioning on the live ubuntu cd?
[19:04] <ikonia> metasansana: try putting a file system on it, verify it by mounting it, then unmount it, and try the installer again
[19:04] <metasansana> ikonia: huh?
[19:04] <Bauer> is there any way to allow Ubuntu's Terminal in GTK to copy text when I select it? like Putty does in windows
[19:04] <ikonia> metasansana: what do you want to do ?

[19:04] <metasansana> I'm on http://developer.ubuntu.com/
[19:04] <mihajlo> Still waiting for someone to explain me how to set no mode option,,,
[19:04] <jrib> Bauer: it does that, just use middle click to paste
[19:05] <jrib> !nomodeset | mihajlo
[19:05] <ikonia> mihajlo: try reading the information you've been given 3 times
[19:05] <metasansana> So far I see C and python stuff, I was wondering about javascript support.
[19:05] <escott> mihajlo, it will tell you in that link
[19:05] <ikonia> metasansana: it will support javascript as that's in the browser
[19:05] <Bauer> hmm, thanks ikonia , I must have had weird bug, indeed it works now
[19:06] <metasansana> ikonia: I don't mean for web, I mean for desktop applications.
[19:06] <metasansana> Specifically messing around with unity.
[19:06] <ikonia> metasansana:.....javascript is for browsers.....
[19:06] <metasansana> ikonia: JavaScript left the browser a long time ago.
[19:06] <metasansana> node.js?
[19:06] <hunterdouglas> ok ikonia the reinstall took my 2 2TB drives out of raid, the other two are fine, im not entirely sure how to use parted to set it up, looks like mkpart /dev/sdc /dev/sdb raid1 0 end or something like that
[19:06] <ikonia> it's still parsed by the same library
[19:07] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: is the raid software, hardware or fakeraid ?
[19:07] <metasansana> So I guess there is no unity javascript api then?
[19:07] <hunterdouglas> software
[19:07] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: madadm assemble to re-assmble the array
[19:07] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: mdadm sorry
[19:08] <savio> anybody tried new ubuntu phone os>
[19:09] <ikonia> savio: try #ubuntu-phone
[19:09] <MonkeyDust> !phone | savio
[19:09] <hunterdouglas> can i create a new raid1?
[19:09] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: do you want to create a new raid ? or just re-assemble the old one ?
[19:09] <hunterdouglas> new
[19:10] <wachpwnski> why would you want a ubuntu phone when you can have a window 8 phone that is so much better. :D
[19:10] <ikonia> hunterdouglas: then do that then
[19:10] <savio> ikonia, MonkeyDust i know that i just ask you guys
[19:10] <hunterdouglas> old didnt have anything on it
[19:10] <ikonia> wachpwnski: stop it
[19:10] <ikonia> savio: ask in the right channel then
[19:10] <ikonia> especially if you know the right channel
[19:10] <mihajlo> escott: again get black screen with dash blinking...
[19:11] <wachpwnski> ikonia: stop what?
[19:11] <joe_onereb> Am I free to use any old video card  for Ubuntu or is there a particular one that works better with linux?
[19:11] <ikonia> wachpwnski: the trolling
[19:11] <wachpwnski> I'm being serious…
[19:12] <ikonia> joe_onereb: you need a certain power one, to get the 3d effects, and one which supports 3d acceleration in linux
[19:12] <ikonia> wachpwnski: he asked if anyone had tried it, not "please trolling me with windows is better flame"
[19:12] <wachpwnski> I work for best buy mobile and I am a realistic authority on it
[19:12] <ikonia> wachpwnski: you'r enot
[19:12] <ikonia> wachpwnski: this channel is for ubuntu support, not your makerting spew
[19:12] <escott> mihajlo, if you want help you need to learn how to ask questions that can be answered
[19:12] <wachpwnski> fair enough
[19:13] <escott> mihajlo, either "you did it wrong" or "your problem isnt modesetting"
[19:13] <synaesthetik> ummm
[19:13] <joe_onereb> does anyone know one card in particular that deffinatly works?
[19:13] <synaesthetik> ikonia
[19:13] <synaesthetik> look at this
[19:13] <ikonia> !hcl | joe_onereb
[19:13] <synaesthetik> umount: it seems /dev/sda1 is mounted multiple times
[19:14] <synaesthetik> i have no idea where though
[19:14] <ikonia> synaesthetik: it can't be
[19:14] <ikonia> synaesthetik: you can only mount it once
[19:14] <synaesthetik> well that is what it says
[19:14] <escott> synaesthetik, what is the output of "mount"
[19:14] <L3mce> might have bindings etc... what does mount tell you synaesthetik
[19:15] <papsmear> Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DOTA Steam
[19:15] <synaesthetik> mount /dev/sda1
[19:15] <synaesthetik> ?
[19:15] <L3mce> mount
[19:15] <escott> synaesthetik, no just "mount"
[19:15] <synaesthetik> mount: warning: /etc/mtab is not writable (e.g. read-only filesystem).
[19:15] <synaesthetik>        It's possible that information reported by mount(8) is not
[19:15] <synaesthetik>        up to date. For actual information about system mount points
[19:15] <synaesthetik>        check the /proc/mounts file.
[19:16] <synaesthetik> er
[19:16] <synaesthetik> wait
[19:16] <escott> synaesthetik, when a tool tells you something please follow the instructions the tool tells you
[19:16] <L3mce> !pastebin | synaesthetik
[19:16] <synaesthetik> oops sorry
[19:16] <synaesthetik> didn't know
[19:16] <harryrf> !help
[19:16] <papsmear> synaesthetik, did you check fstab
[19:16] <ikonia> it's a livecd
[19:16] <harryrf> Can I talk to that bot in PM?
[19:17] <ikonia> it won't have anything in the fstab
[19:17] <ikonia> harryrf: yes, you can
[19:17] <archbsdace> !msgthebot | harryrf
[19:17] <L3mce> yes harryrf /msg ubottu
[19:17] <escott> !msgthebot > harryrf
[19:17] <papsmear> oh
[19:17] <synaesthetik> oh also this was on the output: /dev/sda1 on /home type ext2 (rw) /dev/sda1 on / type ext2 (rw)
[19:17] <synaesthetik>
[19:17] <synaesthetik> doh
[19:17] <HQRaja> I am following the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and when I use this command: 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.BAK' as instructed, I get this error: 'cp: cannot stat `/etc/X11/xorg.conf': No such file or directory'
[19:17] <escott> synaesthetik, thats a rather strange setup
[19:18] <harryrf> cool thanks
[19:18] <escott> synaesthetik, but umount the /home first
[19:18] <synaesthetik> huh?
[19:18] <HQRaja> Can anyone please help me with this?
[19:18] <BluesKaj> HQRaja, cp -r
[19:18] <escott> HQRaja, those instructions are out of date. xorg.conf won't exist on most systems
[19:18] <synaesthetik> yes i did umount
[19:18] <brightspark> HQRaja: modern releases don't contain that file.
[19:19] <escott> synaesthetik, if you bind mounted the disk the inner mount needs to be unbound first
[19:19] <bekks> HQRaja: A file that doesnt exist doesnt need to be backuped. :)
[19:19] <HQRaja> eshlox, brightspark, bekks: Ah I see, thanks. So I shouldn't follow those instructions then, considering the rest might be out of date too?
[19:19] <BluesKaj> bekks, may have generated axconf if he has nvidia
[19:20] <BluesKaj> er Xconf
[19:20] <bekks> BluesKaj: The message clearly states that he doesnt. :)
[19:20] <hunterdouglas> ok, managed to rebuild the raid, guess thats the way i am going
[19:20] <synaesthetik> escott you mean unmount from root after i unmount from home?
[19:20] <escott> synaesthetik, yes
[19:21] <HQRaja> escott, brightspark, bekks: I'm basically trying to switch to the fglrx proprietary drivers for my AMD video card in hopes that HDMI output to my external monitor works, which isn't currently working using the default X.Org drivers that Ubuntu used upon installation automatically.
[19:22] <escott> HQRaja, all you need to do is install the fglrx package
[19:22] <bekks> HQRaja: I cant help you with that, since I am actively refusing to even touch ATI graphics hardware :)
[19:22] <HQRaja> Though when I try to manually switch to those drivers from the 'Additional Drivers' section in 'Software Sources', nothing happens after hitting 'Apply Changes'; no error message. The radio button simply switches back to 'Using X.Org X server'
[19:23] <HQRaja> escott: Yes, that's what I'm trying to do. =)
[19:23] <HQRaja> bekks: Heh no worries. I personally wouldn't mind sticking with the default driver currently in use, if HDMI output would work with it.
[19:23] <escott> HQRaja, is this a laptop?
[19:24] <escott> HQRaja, ie switchable graphics?
[19:24] <HQRaja> escott: Yes, it is. BTW perhaps if I launch the Software Sources dialog from terminal, I can see some error output to find out what's happening. Would you know how to do that?
[19:24] <escott> HQRaja, yeah that probably wont work
[19:25] <HQRaja> escott: The machine has integrated Intel graphics, plus ATI ones. The card is getting detected fine by the machine.
[19:25] <HQRaja> Under 'Additional Drivers', it says 'Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI: Madison [Radeon HD 5000M Series]
[19:25] <HQRaja> Wait, let me try grabbing a screenshot
[19:26] <escott> HQRaja, please dont send it to me
[19:26] <HQRaja> escott: I won't; I'll upload it somewhere and paste the link here.
[19:28] <synaesthetik> papsmear, how do i check fstab
[19:30] <papsmear> synaesthetik, cat /etc/fstab
[19:30] <papsmear> but if you're using a livecd it's no use
[19:30] <synaesthetik> blah
[19:33] <datruth> is there a winamp dsp plugin for linux?
[19:33] <ikonia> linux
[19:33] <ikonia> datruth: winamp doesn't exist on linue
[19:33] <archbsdace> datruth: audacious has the ability to look like winamp
[19:33] <MonkeyDust> datruth  audacious is very similar to winamp
[19:34] <MonkeyDust> archbsdace  was faster :)
[19:34] <HQRaja> escott: This is what I see in 'Software Sources' > 'Additional Drivers': https://jumpshare.com/v/xFvtkJWcAz9O8P10Mvqx?b=D3qsehP9Q5ERnrkm2M1k and this is the error that shows up in Terminal when attempting to switch to ATI's drivers. Can you please take a look at them?
[19:35] <HQRaja> Sorry, forgot to paste the second link. Here it is: https://jumpshare.com/v/Y8RbYiHsk2qK5EPNbXfC?b=D3qsehP9Q5ERnrkm2M1k
[19:35] <lb27> archbsdace: can audacious play pictures with embedded music?
[19:35] <archbsdace> lb27: never tried sorry
[19:35] <archbsdace> lb27: there should be display plugins
[19:36] <lb27> archbsdace: I think it has more to do with a disregard for file headers, a minor point, but something winamp does
[19:37] <Physicist> My problem was resolved. I just changed the linux image and fixed the problem.
[19:37] <Brewster> hey whenever I try to open synaptic or anything else that requires root privileges and try to enter my password it will say incorrect password even though I haven't typed anything yet
[19:37] <Brewster> how do I fix that?
[19:38] <Physicist> After reinstall the AMD driver. It was not necessary.
[19:38] <synaesthetik> brb
[19:39] <lb27> Brewster: what happens if you run 'sudo synaptic' in a terminal?
[19:39] <escott> !gksudo | lb27 Brewster
[19:39] <lb27> escott: ok, thanks
[19:39] <Brewster> :/
[19:39] <harryrf> lspci should show wlan0 if the wireless card is reconized , correct?
[19:39] <Prageeth> can i install ubuntu alongside windows 8?
[19:40] <genii-around> harryrf: Some wireless cards are on an internal USB bus
[19:41] <HQRaja> Can anyone please help me with my drivers issue?
[19:41] <L3mce> harryrf: it may not call it wlan... but it should likely be listed. /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules will show it if the system recognizes it
[19:41] <Brewster> exit
[19:41] <Brewster> oops
[19:41] <Brewster> wrong window
[19:42] <L3mce> HQRaja: http://www.pastebin.ca/2316914
[19:42] <L3mce> HQRaja: then reboot
[19:42] <Brewster> gksudo works but is there any way to fix the original problem?
[19:42] <HQRaja> L3mce: Thanks, lemme try
[19:45] <escott> L3mce, HQRaja has switchable graphics. make sure whatever you are sending him wont break such a system
[19:45] <L3mce> sorry
[19:45] <L3mce> yes
[19:45] <harryrf> L3mce, here's what my 70-persistent-net.rules files says http://pastebin.com/6swJPQFV
[19:46] <L3mce> HQRaja: I appologize... I didnt realize you were on a hybrid. Please install vga-switcheroo
[19:46] <L3mce> I do not know that it supports fglrx
[19:46] <HQRaja> L3mce: So I shouldn't use those commands, then?
[19:46] <L3mce> correct
[19:46] <HQRaja> Thank you.
[19:46] <L3mce> good catch escott thanks
[19:47] <escott> L3mce, i told him it wasn't going to work but he didnt listen to me
[19:47] <HQRaja> Is this correct: sudo apt-get install vga-switcheroo ?
[19:47] <scooby> I want to disable the right mouse button in the xfce desktop - how do I do that?
[19:48] <HQRaja> escott: My apologies; I've been a bit confused.
[19:48] <Physicist> Any suggest about how to create a backup partition?
[19:48] <escott> HQRaja, is it supposed to be vga-switcheroo or ironhide these days
[19:49] <czardoz> what's the best way to read docbook files?
[19:49] <escott> HQRaja, what you are doing is unsupported. there is some very rough stuff like vga-switcheroo which works for some people but not other and could break your system
[19:49] <Physicist> I have lots of space.. more than 700GB free!
[19:49] <lb27> Physicist: I like dd if you want an exact copy, can pipe it into a container of your choice.
[19:51] <escott> HQRaja, ie its something you should be very cautious about doing and do *A LOT* more research before you start
[19:51] <Physicist> lb27: dd? I do not know what is it.. So can I just create and put there?
[19:51] <psusi> dd is not a backup tool... it's a dumb animal... if you want to backup your files, use tar, or the nice gui backup tool
[19:51] <HQRaja> Sorry, got disconnected
[19:51] <lb27> True, if you just want the files there are many fine choices
[19:52] <escott> HQRaja, is it supposed to be vga-switcheroo or ironhide these days
[19:52] <escott> HQRaja, what you are doing is unsupported. there is some very rough stuff like vga-switcheroo which works for some people but not other and could break your system
[19:52] <escott> HQRaja, ie its something you should be very cautious about doing and do *A LOT* more research before you start
[19:52] <HQRaja> escott, L3mce: In case my last two messages didn't get through, Is there any way to somehow output my display to an external monitor using the existing driver? Since that's the only thing I wanna do; otherwise, I'm find without ATI's drivers
[19:52] <HQRaja> And thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.
[19:52] <Physicist> ok..
[19:53] <HQRaja> find = fine*
[19:53] <escott> HQRaja, start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics
[19:53] <Orpheon> What is the easiest way to make a windows partition larger from Ubuntu?
[19:53] <escott> HQRaja, and then start seeing anyone else has had success with your laptop model
[19:54] <escott> Orpheon, gparted
[19:54] <HQRaja> escott: Thanks again
[19:54] <Orpheon> escott, how? If I click on "Resize" on the windows partition, it doesn't let me make it bigger
[19:54] <L3mce> I am not sure HQRaja. I avoid those things like the plague.
[19:55] <escott> Orpheon, does it have adjacent free space to expand into
[19:55] <Orpheon> adjacent?
[19:55] <Orpheon> damn
[19:55] <Orpheon> can I move other partitions around?
[19:55] <HQRaja> So then from what I have understood so far, this basically means HDMI output will not work with the default VGA card using the drivers Ubuntu has used by default?
[19:55] <escott> Orpheon, yes as long as the partition is not active
[19:56] <escott> HQRaja, that would be my big question. have you ruled that out? you seemed to start down a path and never looked back
[19:57] <Orpheon> escott, still don't see how: http://snag.gy/l8bUq.jpg
[19:57] <HQRaja> escott: Well, I didn't rule it out actually. In fact if I can somehow get that to work, I wouldn't even want to look into getting ATI drivers to work.
[19:57] <Orpheon> (sda2 = windows)
[19:58] <escott> HQRaja, i would be curious to see "lspci -tv"
[19:58] <escott> Orpheon, you have an extended partition in there.
[19:59] <escott> Orpheon, you would have to shrink the extended to move the free space out of the extended, then slide sda2 over
[19:59] <HQRaja> escott: Thanks, lemme try. My only objective here is to output my display to an external monitor over HDMI, regardless of the drivers or the video card the machine and the OS use for the purpose. =)
[19:59] <Orpheon> escott, and uhh...how do I resize the entire extended partition? Right-clicking doesn't give any Resize option
[20:00] <escott> Orpheon, i dont know if it can be done from the gui or not
[20:00] <rushboy> Hello ! Can anyone please help me out with this query : I am writing a simple gui program in java where I am displaying a menu bar with just two tabs namely : 'File' and 'Edit' using all the libraries provided by java like javax.swing and java.awt . My query is how do I change the size of the font in which the words 'File' and 'Edit' is written ? I really need to solve this , any help is very much appreciated :-)
[20:01] <escott> !ot | rushboy
[20:01] <theadmin> rushboy: I think ##java is a much better place for this.
[20:01] <rushboy> theadmin, okay , the network please ?
[20:02] <theadmin> rushboy: Uhm, this one. Freenode.
[20:02] <rushboy> Cannot join #java (Channel is invite only).
[20:02] <rushboy> :(
[20:02] <theadmin> rushboy: ##java, not #java

[20:05] <frew> does anyone have any idea why X would lose my keyboard?  If I plug in a USB keyboard I can type fine, and if I switch to a real terminal (Ctrl + Alt + F1), I can use my normal keyboard
[20:10] <frew> it gets even weirder
[20:10] <frew> arrow keys work in X
[20:11] <theadmin> frew: This doesn't explain why it happened, but why not just restart X? Does it help?
[20:11] <frew> restarting X works but it's just a hassle you know?
[20:11] <frew> I
[20:11] <frew> I'd like to get to the bottom of it and solve the problem
[20:12] <theadmin> frew: Okay, so it's consistent, it happens often? If so, what are your actions before it happens?
[20:12] <frew> it happens maybe 2-3 times a month
[20:12] <frew> so not super often
[20:12] <frew> but it's a laptop, so I can't just unplug and replug my keyboard, or I wouldn't care
[20:13] <frew> I *think* what causes it is pressing a lot of buttons at the same time
[20:13] <frew> often on accident
[20:13] <frew> but I can't easily reproduce that
[20:13] <theadmin> Hm... This is odd.
[20:13] <frew> I've had the same thing happen on my desktop at work but with that one I do the unplug/replug trick and all is fine

[20:13] <kzetts> Hi, any alsa wizards around?
[20:14] <gordon_> i am not sure if i am in the right channel i am new (just changed from windows yesterday) to ubuntu and am having video problems
[20:14] <theadmin> gordon_: What kind of problems?
[20:15] <MonkeyDust> problems with flash gordon_ ?
[20:15] <gordon_> there is video glitches when playing flash
[20:15] <kzetts> lol MonkeyDust
[20:15] <ntzrmtthihu777> dr_willis: we meet again.
[20:15] <theadmin> gordon_: That tends to happen on some browsers, are you using Chrome/Chromium?
[20:15] <gordon_> i am using firefox
[20:16] <kzetts> Anyone have any idea why I get excessive background noise while using y phone headset/earphones in the combo/mic jack on my laptop? In windows I can make calls and record stuff via the headset mic in this jack with no issues. In ubuntu and xubuntu i get tons of background noise. Its actually a little clearer with the onboard mic.
[20:16] <gordon_> there is a blurred line when i am using libreoffice as well when i scroll up or down
[20:16] <theadmin> gordon_: Hm, okay, then that's eliminated. Are you using Flash from partner or multiverse (i.e. the one that came with Ubuntu or did you install it  manually)?
[20:17] <theadmin> gordon_: Ah, now that sounds like a video driver problem already. Can you open up "Additional Drivers" and see if any are available?
[20:17] <gordon_> the one ubuntu came with
[20:17] <gordon_> how do i open up the drivers
[20:17] <ntzrmtthihu777> looking to install ubuntu on my dell inspiron ONE2205, cannot get the info from here, help? http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/precise-testing/precise_final.html
[20:18] <theadmin> gordon_: Which Ubuntu version is this?
[20:18] <gordon_> 12.04
[20:18] <theadmin> gordon_: Ok. Hit the Super key (Windows), type "jockey" and hit Enter
[20:19] <gordon_> i  found the additional drivers and it is using nvidia graphics driver (post release updates)
[20:21] <k-stz> can ubuntu 10.04 run geforce 600 series cards?
[20:21] <theadmin> ntzrmtthihu777: Dell is partnered with Canonical and Ubuntu works perfectly on most Dell machines. Just boot the livecd if you want to test.
[20:21] <SonikkuAmerica> bombard: Did you get your GeForce issue solved?
[20:21] <gordon_> in jockey what am i looking for
[20:21] <kzetts> No one has any ideas regarding alsa mic noise/
[20:21] <kzetts> ?
[20:21] <theadmin> gordon_: Available drivers (i.e. those with a gray sphere next to them)
[20:21] <woo> Everytime I close the screen on a toshiba the screen turns off.  When I open the screen on said laptop it won't turn the screen back on and I cant get a tty1-6 to pop up either.
[20:22] <woo> ubuntu 12.04
[20:22] <woo> x64
[20:22] <xkernel> can I install wireless compat-drivers on Quantal?
[20:22] <ntzrmtthihu777> theadmin: yeah, I just like reading up on stuffs before I do it.
[20:23] <gordon_> there is only three folders in jockey they all have a padlock on them the names are check , installed_packages , nvidia-current-updates.noconf
[20:23] <theadmin> ntzrmtthihu777: Well, looking at hardware specs for that, don't see anything that would have any reason to fail
[20:24] <theadmin> gordon_: Folders?... Um, I don't think that's the right place
[20:24] <theadmin> gordon_: jockey is an app
[20:24] <theadmin> gordon_: okay, hit Alt+F2 and type jockey-gtk then hit Enter
[20:24] <ntzrmtthihu777> alt+f2 jockey-gtk
[20:25] <SonikkuAmerica> woo: Hit the power button, boot into Ubuntu and go to System Settings > Power.
[20:25] <ntzrmtthihu777> anyone here use/try out that gubuntu yet?
[20:26] <gordon_> i see three nvidia drivers one has a green button on it the other two are greyed out
[20:26] <OerHeks> ntzrmtthihu777, what is gubuntu?
[20:26] <woo> SonikkuAmerica: So I lose the suspend feature.  my hibernate function is disabled
[20:27] <ntzrmtthihu777> gubuntu = ubuntu - unity + full gnome3 desktop
[20:27] <OerHeks> oh just an other freaking ubuntu derivate?
[20:27] <theadmin> OerHeks: Yeah, but it's not released yet...
[20:27] <SonikkuAmerica> woo: Is it currently set to Suspend? (Hibernate is disabled because either [a] you don't have swap space or [b] your swap space is less than your total RAM.
[20:27] <SonikkuAmerica> )
[20:27] <ntzrmtthihu777> :/ no need to get irate, OerHeks
[20:28] <kyan> hello
[20:28] <kyan> can anyone help me?
[20:28] <SonikkuAmerica> !ask | kyan
[20:28] <ntzrmtthihu777> theadmin: you can get the iso from sourceforge, actually. I use gnome-fallback on precise, wondering how good it is relative to fallback.
[20:29] <theadmin> ntzrmtthihu777: Um, the fallback option isn't what it's going to use, it's going to use Gnome Shell.
[20:29] <kyan> i've installed xubuntu-desktop from the minimal iso, now the problem is that before the dist-upgrade all usb worked easly now after the upgrade no usb are discovered only ps2 mouse and keyboard but not usb... sorry for my bad english, i'm italian
[20:29] <woo> SonikkuAmerica: ya and I found pm-hibernate
[20:29] <jn_> newbie question, so I have a line in fstab and I can mount with: mount "mountpoint path", but how can I make it mount automatically on boot ?
[20:29] <OerHeks> ntzrmtthihu777, sorry, i just wanted to know if it is an official ubuntu, i don't want to end up with no support.
[20:29] <woo> SonikkuAmerica: it worked
[20:29] <johnsmith> Hello. What default programs are installed in Ubuntu 12.04 to defend against ARP poisoning?
[20:29] <ntzrmtthihu777> yeah, I get that, I just want to know what it's like
[20:29] <johnsmith> I tried googling it, but all I got was stuff telling me how to ARP poison.
[20:30] <gordon_> there are two available drivers with the grey sphere next to them they are version experimental- 304 and -310
[20:30] <SonikkuAmerica> kyan: We do have an Italian channel, I think
[20:30] <SonikkuAmerica> !it | kyan
[20:30] <kyan> ok thanx :)
[20:30] <k1l> no official ubuntu yet, that gubuntu thing
[20:30] <ntzrmtthihu777> so I take it no-one has tried it yet then?
[20:31] <SonikkuAmerica> ntzrmtthihu777: I have.
[20:31] <joker_> is KDE completely free of all gnome stuff?
[20:31] <ntzrmtthihu777> what do you think of it, SonikkuAmerica?
[20:31] <SonikkuAmerica> !poll | ntzrmtthihu777, let me remind you
[20:31] <k1l> !ot | ntzrmtthihu777
[20:33] <ntzrmtthihu777> SonikkuAmerica: Yeah, I get what works for you may not work for you, just looking for an opinion. k1l: I fail to see how this is off-topic, would it be if I was talking xubuntu or kubuntu?
[20:33] <gordon_> ok i tried using one of the other video drivers and it failed and i tried to use the reporting system and it also failed
[20:33] <k1l> ntzrmtthihu777: "how do you like it" is actually no technical support issue.
[20:34] <SonikkuAmerica> ntzrmtthihu777: Plus, we typically talk about that stuff in -offtopic anyway. So please, take it there.
[20:34] <jakupl> I am having problems installing openttd (transport tycoon) on ubuntu 12.10
[20:34] <ntzrmtthihu777> :/
[20:34] <jakupl> I get this error message
[20:34] <jakupl> openttd: error while loading shared libraries: liblzma.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[20:35] <SonikkuAmerica> jakupl: Can you do [ sudo apt-get install -f ]?
[20:35] <bekks> !info liblzma.so.2
[20:35] <bekks> !file liblzma.so.2
[20:35] <jackarg> so i just managed to install ubuntu alongside windows 8 but now how do i get the grub menu if i want to choose ubuntu? (w8 automatically loads)
[20:35] <jakupl> I am not installing from repositorys
[20:35] <bekks> jakupl: Then you have to install that file somehow.
[20:35] <jakupl> I'm using dpkg -i >file<
[20:36] <k1l> jakupl: why not using that one from repo?
[20:36] <biloo_> oops
[20:36] <jakupl> k1l it's outdated
[20:36] <jakupl> can't do multiplayer with it
[20:37] <biloo_> oops
[20:37] <jakupl> and I can't find liblzma.so.2 anywhere
[20:37] <jakupl> im using 12.10
[20:38] <biloo_> oops
[20:38] <k1l> jakupl: that was a fail on building that package i think
[20:38] <k1l> biloo_: stop that pleaase
[20:39] <k1l> jakupl: http://bugs.openttd.org/task/4729
[20:39] <jackarg> can ANYONE answer me about the dual-booting?
[20:40] <SonikkuAmerica> !patience | jackarg
[20:40] <genii-around> jakupl: liblzma.so.2 is not in any package of ubuntu. liblzma.so however is, in the liblzma-dev package. It puts the file in either /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ or /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ depending on your machines architecture. At that point you could symlink liblzma.so.2 to the systems liblzma.so
[20:40] <jakupl> k1l thanks but Im trying to install 1.2.3
[20:40] <SonikkuAmerica> jackarg: Are you using an EFI/UEFI machine?
[20:40] <k1l> jakupl: i think the one who made that .deb file made some misstakes
[20:40] <woo> SonikkuAmerica: got hibernated working with askubuntu.com && jackarg what is the questions?
[20:41] <woo> SonikkuAmerica: looks like Xorg and Toshiba have some bugs
[20:41] <jackarg> SonikkuAmerica yes i am and woo i'm trying to run ubuntu (i think i need to get the grub menu) now that i installed it alongside windows 8
[20:41] <SonikkuAmerica> jackarg: 64-bit?
[20:42] <fishtech> Anyone use cinnamon desktop on top of ubuntu and have problems? I didn't like unity that well so i changed to cinnamon. So far everything seems ok. Maybe Someone had some helpful advise about it on top of Ubuntu.
[20:42] <jackarg> SonikkuAmerica yes 64 bit
[20:42] <k1l> !mint | fishtech
[20:43] <k1l> fishtech: see the mint support for support with cinnamon since it is not supported from ubuntu itself
[20:43] <SonikkuAmerica> jackarg: OK. Did you check out the community UEFI page?
[20:43] <SonikkuAmerica> !uefi
[20:44] <fishtech> Ok thank you.
[20:45] <jackarg> SonikkuAmerica no send me a link? do you not have a solution?
[20:45] <dowhilegeek> ok so I accidentally deleted my boot partition
[20:45] <SonikkuAmerica> jackarg: Most of what you need is on that page. (Unless you tried that already)
[20:45] <woo> jackarg: you want grub? on grub 3 right?
[20:45] <fishtech> Would you know why Ubuntu will not fuction with jumpdrive. I can't format or really do anything with it.
[20:46] <dowhilegeek> I remade the partition on gparted, and I tried reinstalling grub. But apparently I need like, stage 1 and stage 2 files on the partition first? how do I get those?
[20:46] <woo> jackarg: does it auto boot into linux w/o givnig you a chance to switch?
[20:46] <jackarg> woo: I guess a grub is what I need but I wonder how to install it from windows. I just need an option to switch between the two
[20:46] <jackarg> woo: it autoboots into w8
[20:47] <woo> jackarg: that right after the bios switches to hdd to boot you need the keep mashing the up and down arrorws at boot
[20:47] <woo> jackarg: pretend your are trying to select from a list It should pop up.
[20:48] <woo> jackarg: by default its hidden
[20:48] <jackarg> woo: ok lemme try stay here
[20:48] <jackarg> woo: thanks :)
[20:48] <woo> k
[20:48] <mussa> hi
[20:48] <woo> hi
[20:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> anyone manage to get uck to work for precise x64?
[20:49] <woo> !uck | woo
[20:49] <mussa> i need abuntu arabick
[20:49] <genii-around> !ar
[20:49] <genii-around> Bah
[20:49] <ntzrmtthihu777> !uck | ntzrmtthihu777
[20:50] <genii-around> !arabic
[20:50] <woo> ntzrmtthihu777: what is the problum ur having w/ it?
[20:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> lol, nice trick that.
[20:50] <salmaan> @Musssa, What is your problem?
[20:50] <ntzrmtthihu777> well the package manager does not work, so I can't use what it was intended for.
[20:52] <woo> ntzrmtthihu777: what was the problum you had?
[20:52] <SonikkuAmerica> !uck | SonikkuAmerica
[20:53] <packetfrog> dpkg: error processing extlinux (--configure):
[20:53] <packetfrog>  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[20:53] <packetfrog> oops
[20:53] <packetfrog> multi monitor and me are not getting along   dont mind me
[20:53] <woo> ntzrmtthihu777: I have a rebuilt 12.04 x64 I havent iso'd or ran yet.
[20:53] <ntzrmtthihu777> have you ever used it? basically it pulls your iso apart, and in that you can install/remove packages. it does not work with precise, because it does not come with synaptic
[20:53] <mussa> هاي
[20:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> !ar | mussa
[20:54] <SonikkuAmerica> !arabic | mussa
[20:54] <ntzrmtthihu777> nope xD wrong one
[20:54] <gordon_> i am having video driver problems i downloaded the linux version from NVIDIA but i don't know the proper procedure for installing them
[20:54] <SonikkuAmerica> (Yeah, !ar is Argentina)
[20:54] <woo> ntzrmtthihu777: Failed to copy resolv.conf, error=1
[20:55] <ntzrmtthihu777> yeah, forget exactly what the issue was, been a while since I fiddled with it.
[20:55] <jackarg> woo: no it does not work i just booted into w8 again i think there's not grub
[20:55] <winterpk> Hi all
[20:56] <gordon_> what channel do i need to go to for technical help with video drivers
[20:56] <winterpk> I'm having an issue with permissions where if a user uploads from one computer it sets to 775 but the same user from a nother computer sets to 755? What could cause that?
[20:56] <woo> ! grub3 | jackarg
[20:57] <woo> ! grub | jackarg
[20:57] <woo> jackarg: but, there is a trick I would try
[20:57] <bekks> winterpk: How do those users "upload"? And to which Ubuuntu version?
[20:57] <jackarg> what is that woo?
[20:58] <winterpk> bekks, using Coda IDE and Filezilla.
[20:58] <woo> jackarg: live boot a ubu cd and a sudo grub-install
[20:58] <jackarg> k i'll try
[20:58] <bekks> winterpk: And using WHICH protocol for uploading?
[20:58] <winterpk> ssh
[20:58] <woo> jackarg: or you could use a puppy linux cd to install grub4dos
[20:59] <bekks> winterpk: ssh can upload at all. Do you mean SFTP or FTPS?
[20:59] <bekks> winterpk: *cant
[20:59] <alagos> Hello
[20:59] <woo> hello
[20:59] <winterpk> sorry yeah sftp
[20:59] <winterpk> Shell FTP
[21:00] <woo> I have a question.  If you run ubuntu live to install grub to /dev/sda will in recognize the kernel version of the iso or the sda?
[21:00] <bekks> winterpk: The abbreviation stands for "secure FTP".
[21:00] <winterpk> oops ok
[21:00] <bekks> winterpk: Do you use SFTP in both clients, or does one of them just use FTP?
[21:00] <winterpk> both clients
[21:00] <winterpk> SFTP
[21:00] <winterpk> I don't even have an FTP server set up
[21:00] <alagos> I'd like to ask about ubuntu 12.04 and laptop lenovo Z580. Is it possible to install it on this laptop and work?
[21:01] <bekks> winterpk: And which Ubuntu versions are involved?
[21:01] <winterpk> 12.04 LTS
[21:01] <meet> i am trying to install python-glade2 on 12.04 but getting some error like not find in current software sources. how do i install it?
[21:01] <woo> jackarg: I think it would work and just to try I'm going to attempt it with my pc to see if it crashes ok?
[21:01] <dowhilegeek> what filesystem should I use for a grub partition?
[21:02] <bekks> dowhilegeek: Do you mean /boot ?
[21:02] <Physicist> I have a doubt. What is the difference between I install the normal ubuntu iso and install the server os?
[21:02] <dowhilegeek> like, ext2, etx
[21:02] <ldiamond> 12.04: I sometimes get popups saying some system application had a problem, can't get any information about it, only click "report problem" which asks for my password. I don't know what failed or why, I don't want to provide my password to some random popups. Is there a log I should be looking at?
[21:02] <bekks> dowhilegeek: Do you mean /boot?
[21:03] <Styler2go> Would someone have time to help me setting up iptables?
[21:03] <dowhilegeek> bekks: sure
[21:03] <jpds> Styler2go: That depends on what you need
[21:03] <Physicist> I should have a server with many computers?
[21:03] <jpds> Styler2go: And you'll likely find better help on #ubuntu-server.
[21:03] <bekks> dowhilegeek: ext2 is full sufficient for /boot
[21:03] <Styler2go> i want to block ips if they have more than a specific amount of requests per secound
[21:03] <jpds> Physicist: What do you need a server for? File storage? Authentication?
[21:03] <yeats> Styler2go: you probably want to look into fail2ban
[21:04] <jpds> Styler2go: sudo ufw heelp
[21:04] <winterpk> bekks: any thoughts on what could cause that?
[21:04] <Physicist> I want make a proxy system..
[21:04] <jpds> Styler2go: And look at the 'limit' option.
[21:04] <SolarisBoy> rate limiting/ throlling
[21:04] <SolarisBoy> its possible in iptables - no need for extra sw
[21:04] <Physicist> jpds: Is it possible with my notebook?
[21:04] <Styler2go> ufw not found
[21:04] <jpds> !ufw | Styler2go
[21:05] <Styler2go> isnt it iptables? o.O
[21:05] <jpds> Styler2go: It is.
[21:05] <Styler2go> oh
[21:05] <jpds> Styler2go: ufw just makes it easier.
[21:05] <SolarisBoy> ufw is a stupifier for iptables
[21:05] <Styler2go> so the command is iptables, or?
[21:05] <SolarisBoy> or not
[21:05] <jpds> SolarisBoy: ...
[21:05] <SolarisBoy> heh
[21:05] <Styler2go> becuase i dont have ufw but iptables
[21:05] <jpds> Physicist: Sure, but you'd likely want it on the device that's always on.
[21:05] <jpds> Styler2go: Well, apt-get install ufw should do it.
[21:06] <jpds> Styler2go: But if you want to use iptables, go for it.
[21:06] <caasper> I need to reset my GPG passphrase; I used `gpg -c filename.txt` but the passphrase I provided is invalid.
[21:06] <Styler2go> whats better?
[21:06] <caasper> Any help?
[21:06] <bekks> winterpk: Different permissions on the clients.
[21:06] <jpds> Styler2go: ufw is just a front-end for iptables.
[21:06] <Physicist> jpds: how can I create my own proxy system with my notebook and server image?
[21:06] <jpds> Styler2go: You want to limit a port, it's as easy as: sudo ufw limit 22; sudo ufw enable
[21:07] <woo> Styler2go: what is ubu version are you running?
[21:07] <jpds> Styler2go: Replace 22 with the port you want to limit.
[21:07] <SolarisBoy> but there is no way to customize the parameters via ufw
[21:07] <jpds> Physicist: Well, that's a good question, you'd have to look into something like squid.
[21:07] <SolarisBoy> so if your ok with that - ufw would work if not youll need to use iptables directly
[21:08] <woo> Physicist: I do that
[21:08] <Styler2go> http://pastebin.com/v0NrrtxZ
[21:08] <winterpk> bekks: so it has to be in the clients themselves right?  Not on the server.
[21:08] <jpds> Styler2go: Check dmesg ?
[21:08] <jpds> Styler2go: Make sure you do: ufw allow 22 --- to make sure you don't block SSH.
[21:09] <Styler2go> http://pastebin.com/T5usXBwJ
[21:09] <caasper> Anyone familiar with gpg? I need to reset my passphrase as it's invalid.
[21:09] <Physicist> woo: How.. Give something..
[21:09] <Styler2go> ok its online
[21:09] <Physicist> jpds: squid.. Is is a website?
[21:09] <jpds> caasper: If you forgot your passphrase, I think you'll need to create a new key.
[21:09] <Styler2go> if i use ab now, it should block me, right?
[21:09] <woo> Physicist: !ssh | Physicist
[21:09] <jpds> Styler2go: Look at: sudo ufw status verbose
[21:09] <woo> !ssh | Physicist
[21:10] <jpds> Physicist: No, it's a proxying software.
[21:10] <jpds> !squid | Physicist
[21:10] <caasper> jpds: I didn't forget it, but after entering it for `gpg -c` it informed me it was invalid, but running the command again uses the same key
[21:10] <woo> Physicist: I use dd alot and just mod on the server
[21:10] <Styler2go> jpds: port 80 limit in, port 22 allow in
[21:10] <Styler2go> Status active
[21:10] <jpds> Styler2go: Good, so it's online.
[21:10] <jpds> Styler2go: See: 'man ufw' for details.
[21:10] <Styler2go> so ab should get blocked, right?
[21:11] <jpds> Styler2go: ab?
[21:11] <Styler2go> apache benchmarkt
[21:11] <Physicist> !scp | Physicist
[21:11] <Styler2go> -t
[21:11] <jpds> Styler2go: The limit rule blocks the port to 6 new connections every 30 seconds.
[21:11] <jpds> Styler2go: That's what the man page says.
[21:12] <woo> good luck
[21:14] <Physicist> jpds: Thank you. I found something interesting.
[21:14] <Styler2go> now i cant access my server
[21:14] <Styler2go> via ssh
[21:14] <tcstar> quick question -- just got a HP G7-2317cl.. installed ubuntu on it -- trying to find drivers that'll work to enable the on/off button for the touchpad (sometimes i use it, sometimes i dont)
[21:15] <tcstar> any ideas on where to head?
[21:15] <jpds> Styler2go: You sure the allow 22 rule was in?
[21:15] <bekks> winterpk: Yes.
[21:16] <Styler2go> yes
[21:17] <utterglee> hey all, good morning
[21:17] <utterglee> I just started a new VPS
[21:17] <Styler2go> what now jpds? :D
[21:17] <jpds> Styler2go: And SSH is on port 22?
[21:17] <jpds> Styler2go: Should work in that case.
[21:18] <Styler2go> yes it is
[21:18] <utterglee> I've got SSH keys on my windows system, and I want to be able to connect to the remote vps
[21:18] <utterglee> I did ssh-keygen on the remote, and there's id_rsa.pub there
[21:18] <utterglee> I've got another public key on my windows computer
[21:18] <caasper> I still need to create a new passphrase for GPG, since it's invalid; I've tried to generate a new key but to no avail.
[21:18] <utterglee> so how do I copy this one to there, without overwriting that file?
[21:18] <utterglee> can I name it anything I want?
[21:19] <utterglee> maybe, local.pub?
[21:19] <tcstar> utterglee -- i generally do the keygen on my local machine then cat it over to the remote server....  the company you got your VPS through should have a guide on how to do this
[21:20] <utterglee> tcstar, I need to connect to bitbucket over SSH, I am going to add the public key I generated as a 'deployment key' (allows read only access to repo)
[21:20] <utterglee> so the server has it's own id_rsa.pub, my computer has it's own too, I'm just confused about how to let them co-exist
[21:20] <tcstar> ooh that one i don't know much...  i generally don't deal with bitbucket.. so I can't help you with that one..
[21:20] <utterglee> so I can connect from my computer to server, and server can connect to bitbucket, etc
[21:20] <Doxin> I'm trying to run bind9 but the init script is failing, running it by hand works fine. what's going on?
[21:21] <utterglee> tcstar, nah this is not bitbucket specific
[21:21] <johnsmith> Is it considered bad taste to repeat questions after more people have logged in?
[21:21] <tcstar> well perhaps i'm confused as to what it is you're wanting....
[21:21] <tcstar> depends on how long it's been since you asked last johnsmith...
[21:21] <Styler2go> what port would be a ping?
[21:21] <Styler2go> my server is not responding to pings xD
[21:22] <tcstar> if I have a question -- i'll usually wait a good 20/30  minutes before trying again (but of course i'm googling the entire time)
[21:22] <bekks> Styler2go: Then enable ICMP.
[21:22] <johnsmith> tcstar Thanks, it's been an hour so I'll give it another go.
[21:23] <johnsmith> What are the default security features in Ubuntu 12.04 (up to date) to help protect against ARP poisoning/spoofing etc? I'm not running a server, just a regular ol' desktop distro.
[21:24] <utterglee> tcstar, I want the server and my computer to have their own SSH public keys
[21:24] <johnsmith> tcstar All of my googling has just told me to modify certain files or tried to teach me how to do MITM attacks
[21:24] <Styler2go> ok what can i do if ssh is blocked?
[21:24] <madsailor> hi all.  Ubuntu 12.04.  After my last round of updates when a program window is maximized and the dropdown menus are integrated in the top bar, when I mouse over to the min/max/restore buttons they dissappear and are replaced by the app/window title
[21:24] <utterglee> I am confused that copying my computer's id_rsa.pub to the server, will overwrite the server's key
[21:25] <angs> what is the command to search a file on the whole fs?
[21:25] <Walex> angs:  depends...
[21:25] <madsailor> this makes it impossible to min/exit the window.  How can I revert this behavior?
[21:25] <bekks> utterglee: Use another target filename then.
[21:25] <tcstar> utterglee -- depending on the method you use -- it'll append your key to the key that's there....
[21:25] <utterglee> angs, I use `ls -alR | grep -i 'yoursearchhere'` : note this is a n00b constructed command, you may find better alternatives
[21:25] <angs> walex, I would like to search for gpio.h
[21:25] <bekks> tcstar: Thats wrong.
[21:26] <angs> thank you utterglee
[21:26] <bekks> utterglee: Copy your LOCAL .pub key into the SERVER's authorized_keys file.,
[21:26] <utterglee> bekks, I can name my client's public key anything other than id_rsa.pub, and SSH will take care of matching the right key? (let's say I have another client, client_2.pub)
[21:26] <utterglee> that is awesome...
[21:26] <Walex> angs: try 'find / -name ...' or 'locate' .... or 'dpkg -S'  or 'apt-file search' depending
[21:27] <bekks> utterglee: No.
[21:27] <bekks> utterglee: Read again what I wrote please.
[21:27] <Walex> utterglee: your question seem to make little sense
[21:27] <darkhelmet46> howdy all
[21:27] <darkhelmet46> can anyone help me with some problems i am having with the wubi-move script?
[21:28] <utterglee> angs, you gotta be in the root / directory for what I typed to work
[21:28] <angs> utterglee, thank you
[21:28] <utterglee> or you could say `ls -alR / | grep -i 'yoursearch'`
[21:28] <theadmin> ...really?
[21:28] <theadmin> find / -iname 'something'
[21:29] <utterglee> well I did warn that is n00b stuff :p
[21:29] <Walex> utterglee: that's an incredibly slow way
[21:29] <utterglee> true, `find` looks way nicer
[21:30] <utterglee> cool then I will shift to using that from now
[21:30] <theadmin> Or even just "locate something", given indices are up-to-date.
[21:30] <krstn420_> hello
[21:31] <utterglee> bekks, let's say I did ssh-keygen on my first PC and got an id_rsa.pub generated
[21:31] <bekks> utterglee: Then copy the content of that file into authorized_keys on the server, as I said.
[21:31] <utterglee> to connect to the server, I copy this file to the server's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys folder, great
[21:31] <krstn420_> could anyone help me to set up pyload to start up at boot. im pretty desperate by now :(
[21:32] <utterglee> now the server has an id_rsa.pub file in that folder
[21:32] <krstn420_> i tried so  much stuff, but it never starts if i reboot
[21:32] <bekks> utterglee: Read what I wrote. I told you twice already what to do.
[21:32] <utterglee> now I went ahead and ran the same process in my second PC
[21:32] <chuckf> How do I recover a mailman admin password for an ubuntu mailing list?
[21:32] <utterglee> I got another id_rsa.pub now, so now I can't use it?
[21:33] <utterglee> "use a different target file": you mean ask ssh-keygen to call it something else?
[21:33] <tekgeek> anyone know  ntfsundelete?
[21:33] <bekks> utterglee: Read what I wrote to you twice.
[21:33] <bekks> utterglee: After doing so, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys
[21:34] <utterglee> It's annoying that it depends on the file name
[21:34] <darkhelmet46> can anyone help me with some problems i am having with the wubi-move script?
[21:34] <Shizuo> I officially approve Ubuntu
[21:34] <bekks> utterglee: It doesnt. READ the link please, as well as what I wrote to you.
[21:34] <utterglee> bekks, sorry to be slow but I can't figure it out
[21:35] <LiquidEssence> Hello. I am running Xubuntu. Whenever I reactivate my computer from sleep/hibernation mode the speakers make a loud notification sound at pretty much maximum volume. Is there any way to turn the system sounds completely off?
[21:35] <utterglee> I swear I read 'what you wrote' each time your ordered me to
[21:35] <utterglee> let me try again
[21:35] <maco_> Hello
[21:35] <Monotoko> c# is a horrible horrible language :(
[21:35] <bekks> utterglee: I wrote exact instructions on what you should do - why dont you read THEM?
[21:35] <theadmin> LiquidEssence: Sure, go to pavucontrol ('sound settings' in Xubuntu methinks) and mute the "System Sounds" channel
[21:36] <utterglee> bekks, you said "copy the contents of the file into /authorized_keys"
[21:36] <LiquidEssence> @theadmin: they are muted
[21:36] <bekks> utterglee: No, I didnt.
[21:36] <LiquidEssence> but it still makes that sound
[21:36] <utterglee> you actually did
 utterglee: Then copy the content of that file into authorized_keys on the server, as I said.
[21:36] <bekks> utterglee: I didnt. I NEVER used / in what I wrote to you.
[21:36] <LiquidEssence> whenever it goes to sleep or returns from sleep
[21:36] <utterglee> oh
[21:36] <theadmin> LiquidEssence: Hm, okay, I guess that doesn't qualify as "system" then for whatever reason... I never got such a sound on Xubuntu though so it's kinda odd
[21:36] <utterglee> right
[21:36]  * utterglee kicks self
[21:37] <bekks> utterglee: And did you read the link too?
[21:37] <datruth> anyone use winamp+dsp in virtualbox?
[21:37] <LiquidEssence> @theadmin: maybe it's a hardware thing? I have a Lenovo laptop
[21:37] <theadmin> LiquidEssence: Hardware playing sounds is... scary
[21:37] <LiquidEssence> it does the same thing on my Windows OS as well
[21:37] <madsailor> I cant min/close a window that is maxed from the titlebar in 12.04 after last update. Controls are replaced with window title on mouseover.  Any help?
[21:37] <utterglee> it's funny how I encountered that file before, had to edit it to get rid of 'man in the middle' attack warnings, and yet I thought you were talking about a folder
[21:37] <theadmin> utterglee: Just call the file something other than "id_rsa.pub" when copying it to authorized_keys.
[21:38] <theadmin> Or not
[21:38] <utterglee> no theadmin it's a file...
[21:38] <utterglee> where I copy my contents of id_rsa.pub
[21:38] <theadmin> utterglee: doh, was just following the conversation
[21:38] <theadmin> utterglee: Well, then copy the contents of multiple files there
[21:39] <utterglee> this is beautiful
[21:39] <utterglee> thanks bekks
[21:40] <theadmin> utterglee: From "man sshd": " Each line of the file contains one key (empty lines and lines starting with a ‘#’ are ignored as comments). So there you go.
[21:41] <LiquidEssence> @theadmin: it's probably have to do with my computer as such; my brother has an ASUS laptop and it doesn't make any sound on his Xubuntu distro, when he puts it into suspend mode
[21:41] <gordon_> i am new to ubuntu and i am having video driver issues where there is a horizontal blur line 3/4 of the way up my screen i tried to use the experimental video drivers and was left with a black screen i reinstalled ubuntu 12.04 and tried 12.10 both of them have issues with the video card i downloaded the newest drivers from nvidia but don't know how to install them
[21:41] <Eino_> Hi. I need some help with my 64-bit installation of Ubuntu 12.10
[21:42] <theadmin> LiquidEssence: Well, this is the weirdest thing ever then
[21:42] <Eino_> I have several problems.
[21:42] <utterglee> 99
[21:42] <theadmin> Eino_: Just ask the questions.
[21:42] <LiquidEssence> @theadmin: yes i can imagine :) I just don't know how to fix it :) I'l look around the web some more if this is a Lenovo specific issue
[21:43] <boom0917> noticed theres suspect packages in the synaptic package manager under Gparted has anyone else noticed that or are those allright to install
[21:43] <Eino_> Every second boot has only black screen. No GRUB, nothing. Just black.
[21:43] <theadmin> LiquidEssence: Well, no such sounds on a Dell.
[21:43] <LiquidEssence> theadmin: I guess my computer is soooo special then :)
[21:43] <Eino_> 2. Steam for Linux tells me: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: käynnistettävää
[21:43] <Eino_> käynnistettävää means = starting in english
[21:44] <theadmin> Eino_: How did you install Steam? You should use the Software Center.
[21:44] <LiquidEssence> theadmin: thx a lot for now, I will look for some more info!
[21:44] <Eino_> Theadmin: I did.
[21:44] <Eino_> I downloaded the .deb file from steampowered.com and it took me to software centre
[21:44] <theadmin> Eino_: That's not what I'm talking about
[21:44] <theadmin> Eino_: I'm talking about the version of Steam that's available *in* the software center
[21:45] <zztr> join #ubuntutablet
[21:45] <zztr> oops.
[21:45] <maitake> Hi ubuntu support. I'm currently using gnome3 shell for my DE. Any idea why regardless of whether I erase the data on my drive, my gnome-shell extensions act like they're installed again? They show up on tweak tool and also on the "Installed Extensions" list on site, yet I can't remove them and they're nowhere to be found in .local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
[21:45] <Eino_> You want the package name?
[21:46] <theadmin> Eino_: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/steam/
[21:46] <theadmin> Eino_: This one.
[21:47] <Laban> I need some advice... When playing videos with AC3 audio, some channels are lost in the playback. In general music is playing OK, but not talk. Tested with Totem, VLC and XBMC. HDMI audio, SPDIF plugged into the graphics card internally.
[21:47] <Eino_> How I can uninstall the old one
[21:47] <Laban> How can I fix this?
[21:47] <Eino_> Nykyiset käyttämäsi ohjelmistolähteet eivät sisällä pakettia "steam".
[21:47] <Eino_> it didn't found the package steam
[21:47] <theadmin> Eino_: sudo apt-get remove steam:i386
[21:48] <Eino_> sudo apt-get remove steam:i386
[21:48] <Eino_> Package 'steam:i386' is not installed, so not removed
[21:48] <theadmin> Eino_: Eh, okay, dpkg -l '*steam*' | pastebinit
[21:49] <jackarg> woo: so I figured that I can get windows by chaning the boot order and putting the windows boot loader on top and get ubuntu if I put the hdd on top. what do you think of that?
[21:49] <LiquidEssence> theadmin: I found the solution. It is a Lenovo specific function. The Beep alarms had to be turned off in the BIOS setup!
[21:49] <Eino_> http://paste.nerv.fi/27747570.txt
[21:49] <jackarg> could someone please help me I cannot change my brightness in ubuntu 12.04 !!
[21:50] <theadmin> Eino_: Okay, that's an odd one. But remove that "steam-launcher" and use the Software Center to install Steam (not the .deb file, just search for steam in the Software Center)
[21:50] <Eino_> it doesn't found package steam-launcher in software centre
[21:50] <jon_w> I'm trying to run "sudo -u gitlab -H bundle install --deployment --without development test mysql" but keep getting "sudo: bundle: command not found" because bundle isn't installed for root. How can I run this command then?
[21:51] <Eino_> how to uninstall that?
[21:51] <theadmin> Eino_: sudo apt-get remove steam-launcher
[21:51] <utterglee> okay, that worked, I can now connect over SSH, cool
[21:52] <utterglee> how did the system know? I mean, I added a key to authorized_keys, how did the system know to immediately start using key instead of asking for a password?
[21:52] <theadmin> jon_w: Use the full path to where "bundle" resides.
[21:52] <Eino_> it does not found anything about steam
[21:52] <theadmin> utterglee: sshd checks the file whenever you connect
[21:52] <jackarg> does anyone know why I can't change my brightness?
[21:52] <Eino_> it founds some random apps but not the steam
[21:52] <theadmin> Eino_: Which Ubuntu version are you on?
[21:52] <jon_w> theadmin thx
[21:52] <Eino_> 12.10
[21:52] <utterglee> nice!
[21:52] <blackroseblade> Woah, lots of people here. :O
[21:53] <theadmin> Eino_: drrr... It should be there.
[21:53] <theadmin> Anyway I'm off
[21:53] <blackroseblade> So I've got a liveusb here and I'd like to make it persistent. I tried this: http://shallowsky.com/blog/linux/install/ubuntu-persistent-live-cd.html
[21:54] <blackroseblade> But unfortunately it can't find casper-rw. Since its a liveusb I'm not exactly sure where to point it to.
[21:54] <jon_w> ohai
[21:54] <Eino_> I have too much problems with this f***ing Canoncial bul***it. Does not found Steam, every second boot has black screen, cannot set to autolaunch Ubuntu have to use GRUB. Random system fatal errors. CAps LOck PROblem.
[21:55] <yong> hello world
[21:55] <SolarisBoy> sounds bad
[21:55] <Eino_> Can someone help me?
[21:55] <blackroseblade> i've never had issues with ubuntu, even when running out of the box. it just...works.
[21:55] <MonkeyDust> Eino_  start with minding your language
[21:55] <SolarisBoy> +1
[21:55] <Eino_> I would, but this just NOT work!
[21:55] <blackroseblade> Steam can be frustrating
[21:55] <PengunCSC> hey guys\
[21:56] <blackroseblade> But yes, i would agree...calm down...
[21:56] <Eino_> I want operating system that works, but this does not. There are FEW problems: Does not found Steam, every second boot has black screen, cannot set to autolaunch Ubuntu have to use GRUB. Random system fatal errors. CAps LOck PROblem.
[21:56] <blackroseblade> These people aren't exactly getting paid to help you.
[21:56] <MonkeyDust> Eino_  steam for linux is still in beta, you can't blame linux for that
[21:56] <PengunCSC> I am trying to enable the HDMI port on my nVidia 210
[21:56] <Eino_> Monkey, overread that still
[21:56] <Eino_> I have still many problems: every second boot has black screen, cannot set to autolaunch Ubuntu have to use GRUB. Random system fatal errors. CAps LOck PROblem.
[21:56] <blackroseblade> Are you new to Ubuntu/linux?
[21:57] <PengunCSC> The nvidia-settings util says the driver is not new enough to show the Xorg settings
[21:57] <Eino_> I have used Linux before
[21:57] <Eino_> and always uninstalled Ubuntu because it does not ork
[21:57] <blackroseblade> no one says linux...
[21:57] <Eino_> i wanted to give it a try
[21:57] <Eino_> but..
[21:57] <Eino_> And I have not problems with steam
[21:57] <blackroseblade> Well it takes time to work just like any new system.
[21:57] <Eino_> it just DOES NOT FOUND THE PACKAGE
[21:58] <blackroseblade> Erm, have you followed the instructions on steam's support?
[21:58] <Eino_> yes
[21:58] <blackroseblade> Added the repository, enabled it, tried getting it manually through terminal?
[21:58] <Eino_> Every second boot is black - it is not about my experience.
[21:58] <Eino_> yes yes yes
[21:58] <Eino_> Even downloaded the package manually
[21:58] <blackroseblade> Dunno, I did the same and mine works like a charm.
[21:58] <PengunCSC> can anyone help with nVidia?
[21:59] <Eino_> No luck with this F***untu.
[21:59] <blackroseblade> PengunCSC: you'll have to wait a bit, it seems.
[21:59] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: have you checked your log files like Xorg.0 for display issues?
[21:59] <k1l> Eino_: i would suggest to target every issue as a single task
[21:59] <blackroseblade> I'm waiting for someone to help me change my liveusb to persistent
[21:59] <Monotoko> PengunCSC, what's up? I have an nVidia card
[21:59] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: what happends when you type apt-cache policy steam?
[21:59] <Eino_> Solaris: how? I can paste if you give me instructionsa
[21:59] <Eino_> SolarisBoy:  let me check
[21:59] <PengunCSC> Monotoko: I have a geforce 210
[22:00] <Monotoko> blackroseblade, have a look at unetbootin - but you'll have to format the drive first
[22:00] <wiggmpk> Eino_: are you trying to install steam?
[22:00] <PengunCSC> I am trying to activate the HDMI port
[22:00] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[22:00] <Monotoko> it has an option for persistent storage
[22:00] <Monotoko> PengunCSC, what's the problem?
[22:00] <PengunCSC> No multiple screens in the native Displays tool
[22:00] <PengunCSC> The nvidia-settings util says the driver is not new enough to show the Xorg settings
[22:00] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: when you have output to post pipe it to the command "uptime | pastebinit" . and post the link which is returned on your terminal
[22:01] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: thats an example there is no need to actually run uptime however
[22:01] <Monotoko> PengunCSC, ahhh... I can't help you there sorry :( I'm too poor to have multiple screens :P
[22:01] <maxbit> hy i have a little question how is the console called that opens when you press ctrl+ Fx ?
[22:01] <Eino_> http://paste.nerv.fi/28895476.txt
[22:01] <blackroseblade> maxbit: you mean the terminal?
[22:02] <maxbit> jap my problem is that it doesn't open on my xubuntu
[22:02] <wiggmpk> Eino_: are you running 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu?
[22:02] <Monotoko> maxbit, ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[22:02] <Eino_> 64bit
[22:03] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: Installed (none) in your language? in that output?
[22:03] <maxbit> -.^ my foult
[22:03] <wiggmpk> Eino_: are you trying to install Steam64?
[22:03] <Eino_> yes
[22:03] <maxbit> thx
[22:03] <darkhelmet46> Can anyone help me with migrating a Wubi install?
[22:03] <Eino_> i can try
[22:03] <Eino_> sudo apt-get install Steam64 ?
[22:03] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: what architecture is your hardware?
[22:03] <wiggmpk> Eino_: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
[22:04] <wiggmpk> Eino_: then "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get install steam64"
[22:04] <Monotoko> darkhelmet46, migrate to where?
[22:04] <darkhelmet46> Monotoko, migrate to its own partition.
[22:04] <Eino_> wiggmpk: will try
[22:04] <Monotoko> I believe you will need to reinstall...
[22:04] <bekks> wiggmpk: Which will make your system mix up i386 and x86_64 forever.
[22:04] <bekks> Eino_: Dont do it until you knwo what those commands do.
[22:04] <SolarisBoy> madness..
[22:04] <wiggmpk> bekks: steam depends on i386 packages
[22:05] <darkhelmet46> Monotoko, I tried this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/635/how-to-convert-wubi-install-into-regular-install
[22:05] <Eino_> SolarisBoy: I don't really know. I have AMD Phenom Quad-Core N970
[22:05] <darkhelmet46> But it errored out.
[22:05] <k1l> wiggmpk: it should isntall that by itself
[22:05] <gordon_> i have a video problem i am running 64bit 12.04 tried the drivers from additional drivers and one of them left me with a black screen so i had to reinstall ubuntu again
[22:05] <Monotoko> darkhelmet46, what was the error?
[22:05] <bekks> wiggmpk: I know. But there is NO reason to force your system mixing up architectures. Steam will pull all dependencies needed.
[22:05] <Eino_> does not found package stea4
[22:05] <Eino_> steam64
[22:05] <darkhelmet46> wubi-move.sh:  An error occurred within chroot
[22:05] <darkhelmet46> wubi-move.sh:  Error is: /usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: this LDM has no Embedding Partition; embedding won't be possible
[22:06] <darkhelmet46> /usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
[22:06] <darkhelmet46> /usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: error: will not proceed with blocklists.
[22:06] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: have you run apt-get update after you added whatever ppa you added?
[22:07] <Eino_> ppa?
[22:07] <Eino_> I did update and then tried the package
[22:07] <Eino_> no luck
[22:07] <SolarisBoy> i dont recall steam being in the ubuntu repo
[22:07] <Eino_> [00:03] <wiggmpk> Eino_: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 [00:04] <wiggmpk> Eino_: then "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get install steam64"
[22:07] <Monotoko> darkhelmet46, what command did you run?
[22:08] <bekks> Eino_: First, you should undo that sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386, it will lead to problems in the future.
[22:08] <Eino_> how
[22:08] <k1l> SolarisBoy: it isnt
[22:08] <Eino_> bekks: how?
[22:08] <SolarisBoy> so i wonder how this is complexing Eino_ .
[22:08] <darkhelmet46> Monotoko, sudo bash wubi-move.sh /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3
[22:09] <SolarisBoy> if you haven't added the ppa for steam the package wont be available
[22:09] <k1l> you need a own repo for steam
[22:09] <blackroseblade> how do I uninstall X server and install nvidia's 310.xx drivers?
[22:09] <Monotoko> darkhelmet46, I have an idea... download the Ubuntu LiveCD, run the command again with "--no-bootloader" then install the bootloader from the live CD
[22:09] <k1l> SolarisBoy: yep
[22:09] <blackroseblade> Oh God, so many questions. D:
[22:09] <Eino_> first tell me how to undo that udo dpkg --add-architecture i386
[22:09] <Eino_> before adding any new repo
[22:09] <bekks> blackroseblade: You do NOT uninstall the X server.
[22:09] <Eino_> *sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
[22:09] <SolarisBoy> heh
[22:09] <k1l> blackroseblade: dont uninstall x server
[22:09] <blackroseblade> oh dear. then what do I do?
[22:09] <wiggmpk> k1l: bekks: i have to leave atm, but could one of you PM me with what problems it may cause by adding the another architecture, still learning myself
[22:09] <blackroseblade> Luckily it's a liveusb, so I can still experiment and learn without breaking anything.
[22:10] <Eino_> lol crap
[22:10] <Eino_> they tell me to undo
[22:10] <k1l> blackroseblade: install nvidia-current
[22:10] <blackroseblade> It says please exit X server before installing nvidia
[22:10] <Eino_> but then don't tell how to do that
[22:10] <Eino_> .
[22:10] <bekks> blackroseblade: Just install the latest nvidia driver: nvidia-current
[22:10] <blackroseblade> Alright kll, installing nvidia current
[22:10] <SolarisBoy> Eino_: dont just type commands people give you without knowing what they will do in the future
