[16:40] <_alpha_> does anyone know of a gmail new message notifier that uses the credentials from ubuntu's online accounts thing?
[16:40] <LordDune> I've even tried to install new video drivers and that doesnt do anything either
[16:40] <BluesKaj> LordDune, try reinstalling flash
[16:40] <LordDune> yes kunji, Nvidia card
[16:41] <LordDune> GT GeForce 240
[16:41]  * c2tarun linux users should ask refund from Nvidia.
[16:41] <Dennis8162> what sizes should is et the partiotions?
[16:41] <Quest> how to find text in files that are in a dir (or the sub dirs)?
[16:41] <kunji> LordDune: The blue people is a problem with Nvidia/Flash depending on who you ask, there is a library that isn't being called properly
[16:41] <kunji> LordDune: Lemme pull up the workarounds for it, I should really bookmark them
[16:41] <LordDune> yes, I went in and edited the files as instructed, but the problem remains kinji
[16:42] <LordDune> I did the workarounds and it still crashes and blue people. Would be fantastic if I was a smurf.
[16:42] <kunji> LordDune: Hmm, well, lemme find some that actually work then, since you still have blue people :P
[16:42] <c2tarun> LordDune, did you try downloading flash plugin from adobe site and pasting it to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[16:43] <LordDune> but I only get blue people 1% of the 1% that flash doesn't actually crash
[16:43] <Dennis8162> oh and can is e the grub bottloader to the /
[16:43] <Dennis8162> i chose the pne where it said the name of the hdd
[16:43] <LordDune> I've tried many different versions of Flash
[16:43] <c2tarun> LordDune, by pasting in plugins folder?
[16:43] <LordDune> 32 bit, 64 bit, so called "stable" versions, experimental versions, "AIR" versions
[16:44] <Pwnguin1> How often do updates come for Ubuntu?
[16:44] <c2tarun> Pwnguin1, what do you mean?
[16:44] <LordDune> no, by deleting the old files and reinstalling via terminal
[16:44] <kunji> LordDune: Which fixes did you try?  It's possible there are things that need to be undone.
[16:44] <Dennis8162> brb
[16:44] <puznel> LordDune: probably not the solution you are looking for but... do you really need Flash?
[16:44] <Dennis8162> im gonna try install
[16:44] <LordDune> kunji : so many that I lost count
[16:45] <LordDune> well how would I watch videos within a browser other than flash?
[16:45] <Quest> how to find text in files that are in a dir (or the sub dirs)?
[16:45] <LordDune> (not meaning to sound dumb, but if there's another way, I am all for it !!!)
[16:45] <puznel> LordDune: depending on the sites, you may use HTML5 (youtube, dailymotion) which works fine.
[16:45] <MonkeyDust> Quest  combine find with grep
[16:46] <LordDune> hmmm
[16:46] <puznel> LordDune: for other sites, perhaps cclive (supports 50+ sites) can download the video.
[16:46] <c2tarun> LordDune, ok its worth giving a try, download the flash tar.gz file from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html   extract and paste contents to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[16:46] <c2tarun> LordDune, if plugins is not present, create it.
[16:46] <Quest> MonkeyDust,  how to find is for file names.
[16:46] <LordDune> considering the fact that Flash says they will no longer support Linux, I think we should ALL change from them
[16:46] <kunji> LordDune: There are some free implementations you could try, you could use HTML5, some things you can actually get the video directly (aka like JupiterBroadcasting and Hak5)
[16:46] <c2tarun> kunji, I guess for Hak5 you need flash
[16:47] <goodtime> heh i installed flash
[16:47] <MonkeyDust> Quest  use find to look for filenames, then grep to look into that file -- the people in #bash can tell you how
[16:47] <fidel> LordDune: chrome comeswith flash
[16:47] <kunji> c2tarun: Hmm, I don't think so
[16:47] <LordDune> I have flash aid on FF
[16:47] <LordDune> so I've tried that version I believe
[16:47] <fidel> LordDune: so ingeneral flash workd pretty good within chrome browser on linux.
[16:47] <goodtime> ofcorse i just did a new install of ubuntu 12.04lts
[16:47] <LordDune> hmmm fidel I will try that also
[16:48] <Quest> k
[16:48] <fidel> LordDune: regarding alternatives - at least youtube offers some of its videos via html5 & without flash
[16:48] <goodtime> icetea has it
[16:48] <goodtime> icetea7
[16:48] <LordDune> yeah, generally speaking i don't watch youtube. mostly reruns of tv shows via the TV show website or netflix, etc
[16:49] <goodtime> oh wait thats ajava app
[16:49] <goodtime> sorry
[16:49] <LordDune> thanks for your help, I will try these things after lunch !!
[16:49] <puznel> IIRC Netflix used Silverlight instead of Flash.
[16:50] <oldude67> puznel, yeah and it crashes about every 30 seconds.
[16:50] <puznel> Why I'm not surprised...
[16:51] <LordDune> (it's weird because all I know is the last version of Ubuntu I used was fine with Flash. Precise might be the problem, or the new version of FF, or the new version of Flash, or even new Nvidia drivers)
[16:51] <LordDune> (wish I could find out what because it seems there are many people out there still with the same problem I have)
[16:51] <kunji> puznel: Yeah.. thing is the silverlight bit is kinda a sham, after all they make it run on the ps3, which as far as I know has no silverlight
[16:52] <LordDune> yeah, I am 50 years old. haven't owned a gaming system since the Sega.
[16:53] <BluesKaj> LordDune, did you try reinstalling flash ?
[16:53] <LordDune> yes BluesKaj
[16:53] <xibalba> The Sega...I vaguely remember that
[16:53] <LordDune> (heh, was meant as a joke, I owned a PS 2 but that was my last system)
[16:54] <LordDune> dang thing broke after a year too
[16:55] <LordDune> maybe I should revert to the last version of Ubuntu
[16:55] <xubuntu> hi
[16:55] <antz> quit
[16:55] <LordDune> or do a reinstall of Precise?
[16:56] <LordDune> I sometimes wonder if this OS is buggy or not
[16:56] <Guest38436> i have an error when install xubuntu 12.10 [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/target/lib/modules/3.5.0-17-generic/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-dtv5100.ko'
[16:56] <goodtime> id stay with 12.04 LTS
[16:56] <antz> does ubuntu has built-in software where i can monitor network speed?
[16:56] <LordDune> (my version on my computer, not precise in general)
[16:56] <goodtime> antz: yes system monitor
[16:57] <theos> hello! my external speakers make a hissing sound when i connect the plug to the laptop headphone output. and the hissing stops when i pull the plug. is it ubuntu issue or laptop hardware issue? please help
[16:57] <bean> theos: probably a laptop issues.
[16:57] <goodtime> the plug hole is prob dirty
[16:58] <theos> goodtime both of them?
[16:58] <goodtime> spray it with air
[16:58] <goodtime> just the input jack

[16:59] <fckingwicked> hello i would like to install ubuntu 12.10 server via usb. the Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS> does not support ubuntu server version. do i just select desktop? or will this cause problems
[17:00] <kunji> LordDune: Maybe, are you experiencing other things that are broken and it seems like it's just your install that has the problem?  Also if you didn't remember to run the md5 checksum, it's possible the original install was corrupt.
[17:00] <backbox> it always tells me that on install... yet the system always seems to work fine... what's up with it though??? I'm not even running gnome??
[17:00] <kunji> fckingwicked: Is that a windows tool?  You could use UnetBootin
[17:00] <genii-around> fckingwicked: Why not instead use a minimal iso then do the tasksel command to install the server parts like LAMP and sshd, etc
[17:01] <backbox> and why does it always check batery state ... even on a desktop??
[17:01] <Safa_[A_boy]> Hi all, can someone give me the mailing list for Ubuntu fonts project ? I want to ask them about the Arabic font :-)
[17:01] <fckingwicked> universal usb installer is suggested on the ubunutu website
[17:03] <antz> so for system monitor on ubunt. it only shows how much network is being used. is there one where i can tell what the max speed is? like you know how sometime when wireless is slow. is that just mean i m not receving as many packets becuase of .... what reasons?
[17:03] <fckingwicked> kunji: unetbootin does not support ubuntu 12.10
[17:03] <Espen_> How does spdif output work? Some people say your aren't able to change the volume on the audio, as it is done by the reciever. But i can still do it on both Ubuntu and Windows?
[17:03] <|Anthony|> what's the ubuntu development chan
[17:03] <kunji> fckingwicked: Yeah, unetbootin can be a little unreliable, but if it doesn't work you just try it again, no harm done.  If the universal usb installer will do the server version selecting the desktop one, then it's fine.  Also unetbootin works with basically any .iso file, I know, I do it all the time
[17:03] <|Anthony|> !dev
[17:04] <|Anthony|> join #ubuntudev
[17:04] <fckingwicked> genii-around: i dont have it installed yet and i have no dvd drive on the machine. kunji: i will try with the desktop version thanks
[17:04] <kunji> Espen_: ? You can do it in Ubuntu for the spdif out?
[17:05] <Espen_> Yes, i can. Some person says this tho:
[17:05] <Espen_> there is no volume control for the digital device  the volume is controlled by your digital receiver
[17:05] <BluesKaj> Espen_, spdif volume ctrl works with the KB vol ctrls and alsamixer , not sure about the panel icon on unity/gnome , since i use kde
[17:06] <Espen_> KB vol? and hi blueskaj again :p
[17:06] <BluesKaj> keyboard , Espen_
[17:06] <Espen_> ah
[17:07] <kunji> Espen_: Well lets see, it's definitely done by the receiver for digital out in the case of the optical out connections, unless the OS can hint what it wants to the device..
[17:07] <BluesKaj> Espen_, but it aslo works on your audio amp/reciever of course
[17:08] <BluesKaj> coaxial as well , not just optical
[17:08] <kunji> Espen_: spdif I'm really not sure, is that even digital?
[17:08] <Espen_> it is digital yes
[17:08] <BluesKaj> kunji, definitely digital
[17:08] <BluesKaj> no analog at the spdif out
[17:09] <Espen_> still working on my bugreport.., guy seems obsessed with fixing name of my sound device and not the actual sound volume reset i have.. :/
[17:09] <BluesKaj> sdpif = sony-philips digital interface, kunji
[17:10] <BluesKaj>  err spdif :)
[17:10] <dean_> Hi all I have installed Ubuntu on my PC but have realised that I need to have windows for my sons school stuff so need to reinstall it but only problem is I have no drivers disc. I have been onto the manufacturers website acer and I can see the drivers but how would I install them?
[17:11] <jamesgcd> dean_: its essentially just run each of the program installation files one by one until everything is working, theres nothing really beyond
[17:11] <BluesKaj> dean_, windows drivers will install with your windows OS
[17:12] <dean_> BluesKaj, It is windows xp but drivers dont install for chipset and etc?
[17:12] <The98> I have so doubts about LIRC, can anyone help?
[17:12] <dean_> jamesgcd, Am I looking for an exe file then cos I can see alot of dll files when I go into the zip file?
[17:12] <BluesKaj> dean_, just reminder tho , windows will wipe out the grub bootloader , so you'llneed the ubuntu OS live media to reinstall grub to the mbr
[17:13] <jamesgcd> dean_: it depends on the hardware and the OS. Some default windows drivers will install by themself and work properly, others might not. If you find that the hardware isnt working with default drivers its probably best to install the manufacturers one, and yeah typically you'll be looking for an .exe of .msi, it can get tricky installing them otherwise
[17:13] <Pici> dean_: Are you looking for help finding drivers for Windows?
[17:13] <dennis8162> Hi its me again, it ried what you said and still get he error
[17:13] <kunji> BluesKaj: I don't think you can control volume for spdif in the OS, if you can, I would appreciate an explanation of how that works.
[17:13] <dennis8162> tried*
[17:13] <Pici> dean_: If so, #ubuntu isn't the right place to ask. Try somewhere like ##windows
[17:13] <dean_> Pici, I will be running ubuntu alongside a fresh windows partition
[17:14] <dichtbijzee> doing the mini install i get an error about the mirror. "mirror does not support the specified release precise" any thoughts? Googling only finds 2 old bugs...
[17:14] <Pici> dean_: Okay? But it sounds like you're asking for help finding the right driver downloads for your Windows install.
[17:14] <supNow> is there a guide on how I can control my "ubuntu-server" from my "ubuntu-desktop" desktop version I'm running is 12.10. What I'd like to do is go to switch user and login to the remote machine and control it from my desktop
[17:14] <dennis8162> can anyone help please?
[17:14] <dean_> jamesgcd, When I extract the zip file it brings up loads of dll files and then an executable file?
[17:15] <dean_> Pici, I am just checking to see how I would install them I have downloaded the drivers
[17:15] <Pici> dean_: Windows support is offtopic for #ubuntu period
[17:15] <jamesgcd> dean_: Most likely you just need to run the .exe and it should do it by itself, although it would be advised to create a system restore point before doing that. As Pici said it may be better to ask someone in a windows specific IRC, but I dont think it'll be that problematic
[17:16] <dennis8162> dean_: you want ##windows
[17:16] <Keeni> can anyone tell me how to configure evolution for gmail-account with two-step-verification activated? evolution does not save the app-specific password correctly..so that every time when I start evolution it asks me for the password
[17:16] <dean_> jamesgcd, Ok thanks for your help I was kind of just looking for reassurance thats all Ubuntu will still be my number one unfortunately for my sons school work he has to install a windows native disc
[17:17] <dean_> dennis8162, I didn't realise there was a windows irc channel is it on freenode?
[17:17] <bazhang> dean_, yes
[17:17] <Pici> dean_: yes, its called ##windows
[17:17] <dean_> Ok thanks guys
[17:18] <Kbcao_Newbie> oi!
[17:18] <dennis8162> so can anyone help i need ubuntu. :P
[17:18] <Kbcao_Newbie> tuda a sala e PT br?
[17:18] <Pici> !pt | Kbcao_Newbie
[17:18] <antz> wireless speed for ubuntu is dicated by what factors?
[17:18] <antz> is it exclusively hardware?
[17:18] <Keeni> really nobody uses evolution for gmail?
[17:19] <Pici> dennis8162: All I've seen you ask is 'Hi its me again, it ried what you said and still get he error', I don't think we know what you're even asking about.
[17:19] <BluesKaj> kunji , the spdif volume is controlled by pulseaudio , the alsamixer volume doesn't affect the output
[17:19] <jamesgcd> antz: If working properly no more factors than any other OS. The hardware you're running compared to the speed the router is able to provide
[17:19] <kunji> antz: Wireless speed is never exclusively hardware on any OS T.T
[17:19] <antz> knji and jamesgcd is contradicting
[17:20] <kunji> antz: No we're not, read it carefully
[17:20] <antz> kunji says OS does affect. jamesgcd said no OS doesnt affect
[17:20] <jamesgcd> antz: the OS is only a problem if theres a glitch with it.
[17:20] <BluesKaj> Espen_, did you see my post to kunji above , it might give you some insight
[17:21] <dennis8162> OH ok, when installing ubuntu i get the error: "The attempt to mount a file system with type ext4 inscisi7 (0,0,0), partition #6 (sdb) at / failed.
[17:22] <Espen_> aah i see
[17:22] <kunji> antz: jamesgcd said NO MORE than other OSs, not that it makes no difference, furthermore the drivers can make a big difference.
[17:22] <Espen_> i find it strange tho, that i haven't found a single bugreport about issues similar to mine.
[17:22] <antz> so is there anthing i can do from the OS side to increase my wireless speed
[17:22] <antz> ie configure some networking file?
[17:22] <antz> network manager is what ubuntu uses?
[17:22] <antz> or is there any other software?
[17:23] <FloodBot1> antz: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:23] <Espen_> just waiting for someone coding for pulseaudio to check my bug.
[17:23] <kunji> antz: For instance, there's cards that have linux drivers that don't support all the standards the hardware itself does.  What exactly were you hoping to do to increase the speed?
[17:23] <BluesKaj> Espen_, remind me what bug is that ?
[17:24] <dennis8162> Please can someone help ive been trying for hours :(
[17:24] <Espen_> any device with s/pdif is reset to 100% volume output, if switch default playback device (on same soundcard).
[17:24] <Espen_> only happens to spdif output, analog saves its sound levels.
[17:25] <antz> kunji, well i have two laptops. one is ubuntu and one is PC. these two uses the same wireless but ubuntu always disconnect time to time and slow while on pc its super fast and no problem.
[17:25] <kunji> BluesKaj: Can you cite that for me, about the pulseaudio control.. because I'm not really sure how that's possible.
[17:25] <antz> any idea as to why?
[17:25] <kunji> antz: Sounds like a driver problem.
[17:25] <antz> kunji, how do i go about fixing it?
[17:26] <dennis8162> What do i do? it cant make the / parttion
[17:28] <dichtbijzee> doing the mini install i get an error about the mirror. "mirror does not support the specified release precise" any thoughts? Googling only finds 2 old bugs...
[17:28] <kunji> antz: I'm not sure, I don't know my way around wireless drivers all that well, but for starters you could check exactly what the wireless device is using lspci  and what drivers it is using with maybe lsmod  From that information you could start to search around and/or pastebin it to see if anyone else knows more.
[17:29] <antz> kunji, thank you
[17:30] <BluesKaj> kunji, puleaudio is a sound server that runs on top of alsa and it converts to analog and back to digital , so the volume is controlled in the analog process afaik , hence a digital volume ctrl
[17:31] <dennis8162> im trying to install ubuntu, and get a error: "The attempt to mount a file system with type ext4 inscisi7 (0,0,0), partiton #6 (sdb) at / failed."
    Because that one had me totally stumped.
[17:37] <heripunk> alguien habla español?
[17:37] <dennis8162> yes
[17:37] <dennis8162> im manually making the parttions, and what does that "new partition table" button do?
[17:38] <kunji> BluesKaj: Yeah, I think that's what is going through both for me, goes to pulse first, which is a source for JACK and then to the sink.
[17:38] <BluesKaj> dennis8162, make you/ the primary and make sure it's over 10G
[17:38] <Tex_Nick> !es | heripunk
[17:39] <amasome> hello all idiots
[17:39] <kunji> dennis8162: Oh, you'll want a new partition table, clean drive right?
[17:39] <dennis8162> i set id yo logical
[17:39] <mdh> hi amasome
[17:39] <dennis8162> and i didnt do the partiton table thing
[17:39] <dennis8162> it to**
[17:39] <domato> ciao
[17:39] <heripunk> gracias
[17:39] <domato> !list
[17:39] <amasome> hi mdh masale
[17:39] <BluesKaj> dennis8162, best bto start with a clean and shiny partition table for sure
[17:40] <dennis8162> ok
[17:40] <dennis8162> then make the partitions, do i need the /home one?
[17:41] <kunji> dennis8162: You don't need it, but it can be nice to have
[17:41] <dennis8162> Ah ok, do i have to make them in a certain order?
[17:41] <dennis8162> and can swap be a primary as / is
[17:42]  * BluesKaj wishes the bot would have a factoids in Italian saying  "No matter what the Italian computer magazines tell you (X)Ubuntu are not download sites"
[17:42] <dennis8162> nvm swaps loical
[17:42] <kunji> dennis8162: Doesn't need to be any particular order.  Swap can be primary, any can be either logical or primary, just know that you can only have 4 primary partitions on the drive unless it's using a gpt partition table
[17:42] <AnalogConspiracy> Hello?
[17:42] <dennis8162> ok thanks
[17:43] <dennis8162> one more thing, how big should i set the / partiton
[17:43] <BluesKaj> dennis8162, there is a beleif that / , /home and swap run best with that order . but i can't prove it
[17:44] <dennis8162> ah ok
[17:44] <AnalogConspiracy> I seem to be having a problem with my WiFi adapter, and I was wondering if there was anyone here to assist me.
[17:44] <mdh> AnalogConspiracy: what is the problem
[17:44] <BluesKaj> dennis8162, 15g should suffice for /
[17:44] <dennis8162> ok thanks
[17:44] <harovali> hi, I'm trying to get a Epson Styls TX-230 wireless multifunction printer to Scan. It already prints wirelessly like a charm. There seems to be a link to a driver ihere http://askubuntu.com/questions/147775/installation-of-wifi-epson-sx235w-4in1-printer-scanner-on-ubuntu-12-04-64-b but it's discontinued. Any kind hint ?
[17:45] <dennis8162> will 15000 mb b ok or do i need to add up all the 24's
[17:45] <dennis8162> as 1 gb is 1024
[17:45] <AnalogConspiracy> Mdh: Well, it's a kinda big issue, it'll take a moment to explain, but I'll provide all the information requested. The problem is, I'm trying to use Barnacle with my rooted LG Optimus Elite with Virgin Mobile to connect to the internet. Which is wonderful!
[17:45] <AnalogConspiracy> However, the netgear WNA1100 adapter stops working sometimes. It seems to be at random.
[17:45] <dennis8162> ill go try that
[17:45] <dennis8162> thatnks
[17:45] <dennis8162> thanks*
[17:46] <BluesKaj> dennis8162, 15Kmb is the same as 15G
[17:46] <dennis8162> thanks
[17:46] <mdh> AnalogConspiracy: is that a pci adapter or usb?
[17:46] <AnalogConspiracy> I'm trying to avoid the use of other packages and whatnot, like ndiswrapper (just personal preference)... But I honestly will do anything at this point. It's a USB adapter, mdh.
[17:46] <AnalogConspiracy> I have some logs while it's running... Would you like to see them?
[17:46] <AnalogConspiracy> And I finished taking logs of it while it randomly disconncected, too.
[17:46] <AnalogConspiracy> disconnected ^
[17:47] <mdh> AnalogConspiracy: i really don't know too much about usb network adapters in ubuntu, but i've had a few netgear usb wifi adapters that would quit out on me under windows after they had been running for a while. I almost suspect that they were overheating or something, because they would start working again after i unplugged them for a while
[17:48] <AnalogConspiracy> You see, that's what I'm starting to believe myself. But it doesn't really get hot at all. I wouldn't even use 'lukewarm' as an accurate adjective.
[17:49] <mdh> AnalogConspiracy: what driver are you using with it right now?
[17:49] <AnalogConspiracy> Do you know how I may find out? I may already have the info, but I just want to be sure that I have it.
[17:50] <mdh> AnalogConspiracy: i'm not entirely sure how to check that myself, did it just work when you plugged it in basically?
[17:50] <AnalogConspiracy> Yes.
[17:50] <kunji> AnalogConspiracy: lsusb plz :P, once we know the chipset, then we can start speculating for reals
[17:50] <AnalogConspiracy> Thanks, Kunji. In that case, I do have it. Let me post the results!

[17:51] <OerHeks> Some wireless adapters have power management problems, for some of them it helps turning managment off >>  http://askubuntu.com/a/162547

[17:51] <AnalogConspiracy> Err. Oops.
[17:51] <AnalogConspiracy> I seem to be having an issue pasting it, but it's ath/htc stuff.
[17:52] <kunji> AnalogConspiracy: Hmm, T.T  I don't know about any problems with that one, atheros chips usually play nice.  Maybe look into OerHeks suggestion.
[17:52] <sonOfRa> i created /dev/mapper entry with kpartx, now I'm trying to remove it again with kpartx -d, but it won't go away. any suggestions?
[17:53] <AnalogConspiracy> I heard good things about them, too. I'm kinda discouraged. I've had great success a couple years back when I was trying to make other modems work. I'd write articles for them, because they didn't get much support. Like the Novatel USB727 modem, and whatnot.
[17:53] <AnalogConspiracy> But I'll definitely try that suggestion.
[17:53] <ronalds_m> how to purge repositorie?
[17:53] <OerHeks> atheros 9 > echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf > /dev/null
[17:54] <ronalds_m> I want to remove kubuntu backports and all the packages with it
[17:54] <wdennis> Hi all - what do I need to do to get my custom-compiled libvirtd daemon to start on boot? (i.e. how to add a program to start on boot)
[17:54] <OerHeks> !purge-ppa | ronalds_m
[17:54] <linkov> OerHeks: Error: "purge-ppa" is not a valid command.
[17:54] <AnalogConspiracy> May I have an explanation of what that will do, OerHeks?
[17:54] <OerHeks> !ppa-purge | ronalds_m
[17:54] <linkov> OerHeks: Error: "ppa-purge" is not a valid command.
[17:54] <MonkeyDust> ronalds_m  system settings software sources
[17:54] <OerHeks> duhh
[17:54] <bloouup> wtf
[17:54] <bloouup> sorry guys
[17:54] <bloouup> !part linkov
[17:54] <MonkeyDust> ronalds_m  system settings > software sources (in 12.10)
[17:54] <ronalds_m> if I just remove the source
[17:54] <ronalds_m> it will do the change?
[17:55] <ronalds_m> ofcourse after update
[17:55] <kunji> ronalds_m: I think you really want to go with ppa-purge
[17:55] <OerHeks> AnalogConspiracy, disabling hwcrypt, that could be the 2nd reason for falling wireless connection
[17:55] <genii-around> !ppa-purge quantal
[17:55] <genii-around> meh
[17:56] <Pici> !info ppa-purge
[17:56] <AnalogConspiracy> Thank you. Would you please answer what hwcrypt is? Lol, I used to know a little bit about Ubuntu, But it's been about a year since I touched a computer.
[17:56] <ronalds_m>  sudo ppa-purge ppa:http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu
[17:56] <ronalds_m> gives
[17:56] <genii-around> Pici: Trying to remember what repo :)
[17:56] <ronalds_m> Warning:  Could not find package list for PPA:
[17:56] <BluesKaj> ronalds_m, alt+f2  , gksudo nautilus /etc/apt/sources.list.d , remove the ppa(s)
[17:57] <OerHeks> AnalogConspiracy, hwcrypt is hardwareencryption, vensor specific for atheros. not supported on every router.
[17:57] <OerHeks> vensor-vendor*
[17:57] <AnalogConspiracy> Ahhhhh, I see.
[17:57] <ronalds_m> just removing from sources will not remove software BluesKaj?
[17:57] <AnalogConspiracy> Do I need to restart my computer or maybe restart udev services for this to work?
[17:58] <BluesKaj> oh , i thought youwere jst trying to remove the ppas, ronalds_m
[17:58] <OerHeks> AnalogConspiracy, no, just disable wifi and turn it back on again
[17:58] <AnalogConspiracy> Will do. I'll likely have to reconnect to the chatroom though. I'll be right back!
[17:59] <z2s8> Hi I have login problem with Ubuntu one what can I do?
[17:59] <AnalogConspiracy> I'm back!
[18:00] <BluesKaj> ronalds_m, which kubuntu packages .. the whole desktop and kde or what ?
[18:00] <ronalds_m> kde as a whole, without some programms
[18:00] <ronalds_m> maybe I should keep it
[18:00] <AnalogConspiracy> Thank you, by the way. This seems to have worked so far. :)
[18:00] <melik_> Drives : 157   Total Capacity : 326.0T
[18:01] <OerHeks> AnalogConspiracy, we'll see after a minute or so, if wifi range drops
[18:01]  * AnalogConspiracy nods.
[18:01] <AnalogConspiracy> Hehe.
[18:01] <ronalds_m> what you usually do if everything stutters like dead
[18:02] <javiasa> hello. ubuntu have my wireless in power-save, it says ath: phy0: TX while HW is in FULL_SLEEP mode. how can I change it? sorry for my bad english
[18:02] <BluesKaj> ronalds_m, if you want to search for files/folders use alt +f2 for read only , use kdesudo dolphin /path/to/file to edit them
[18:02] <ronalds_m> I kinda have this problem sometimes with steam running , updates running behind and for some reason virtual machine :D
[18:02] <ronalds_m> tty is kinda choice but k and giving id of app doesn't do anything
[18:03]  * BluesKaj shrugs
[18:03] <AnalogConspiracy> It's best to throw some more information. Like your driver, chipset, etc, etc. If you don't know the commands, someone can help you.
[18:03] <StephenS> How can I find driver for my graphic card sapphire hd 6570  on linux 12?
[18:03] <ronalds_m> so what kinda vodoo is there for complete lagg, cause I want to restart just the apps, without restarting pc
[18:03] <mojtaba> Does anybody know how can I hibernate the laptop when the power is critically low? Because When I want to change it, it is gray out and just shutdown is activated.
[18:04] <BluesKaj> StephenS, ubuntu 12.10 ?
[18:04] <javiasa> please help, ubuntu has my wireless in power-save and I can't use internet right. ath: phy0: TX while HW is in FULL_SLEEP mode
[18:04] <ronalds_m> mojtaba, it will not be long running even in hibernate if power is low
[18:05] <AnalogConspiracy> javiasa: We don't know what your driver is, chipset, or anything. I'm just gonna throw a suggestion, try sudo rfkill unblock all
[18:05] <StephenS> BLZbubba, yes
[18:05] <StephenS> BlueEagle, *
[18:05] <mojtaba> ronalds_m: I had this option before, till I accidentally changed it to shutdown.
[18:05] <StephenS> BluesKaj, **
[18:05] <mojtaba> ronalds_m: Now when I want to make it back, it is grayed out
[18:05] <ronalds_m> try sudo that programm with terminal
[18:05] <kunji> ronalds_m: trying to kill a process?  Use top to find likely culprits, use ps ax | grep name to find the pid for the offendor, use kill -9 <pid> to kill it for sure.  Now that won't help with restarting the program though in the case where the offending program is something needed for the desktop.
[18:06] <AnalogConspiracy> Javiasa: Actually, someone here gave me a link to power management.  Because When I want to change it, it is gray out and just shutdown is activated.
[18:08] <iceroot> ronalds_m: -9 is not good
[18:09] <BluesKaj> StephenS, alt+F2 type or copy and paste ,  additional drivers
[18:09] <iceroot> ronalds_m: it will kill everything and the program does not have time to unlock files, close sockets and so on, if a program needs -9 normally its a bad program
[18:09] <ronalds_m> steam is good programm
[18:09] <kunji> ronalds_m: as iceroot says though, -9 isn't good for the same reason it always works... it doesn't play nice, so try killing without it first
[18:09] <oldude67> running lubuntu 12.10 with hard drive running lvm, how long should it normally take for a 80 gig hard drive to fsck and repair broken packages threw the grub menu under recovery?
[18:09] <AcidRain> can anyone help me out. as soon as i boot my ubuntu computer, it passes the splash screen then i get a no signal! the issue occured when the xsessions-error.log was 50gig. i managed to delete the file before i restarted. any solutions?
[18:10] <StephenS> BluesKaj, what to search for?
[18:10] <AcidRain> can anyone help me out. as soon as i boot my ubuntu computer, it passes the splash screen then i get a no signal! the issue occured when the xsessions-error.log was 50gig. i managed to delete the file before i restarted. any solutions?
[18:10] <AcidRain> sry for double post
[18:10] <javiasa> AnalogConspiracy: thanks, it dont work. it is a samsung n130 with a chipset Intel 945GSE + ICH7M
[18:10] <BluesKaj> StephenS, additional drivers , the ati drivers should show up in a dialog
[18:11] <AcidRain> anyone to help me out here?
[18:12] <BluesKaj> !additional drivers | StephenS
[18:12] <StephenS> BluesKaj, nothing showed up
[18:12] <excito> could somebody please help me get the original ambiance theme back with all the icons? I think I accidentaly deleted something while trying to set up themes - http://i.imgur.com/mWmoekG.png
[18:12] <StephenS> also bot doesnt pm me either
[18:12] <StephenS> maybe I already have drivers installed with auto update? How can I check if I have installed it already?
[18:12] <AcidRain> my ubuntu computer wont boot
[18:12] <BluesKaj> yeah the bot doesn't have that factoid anymore
[18:13] <AcidRain> how can i boot into command console and try to remove gnome2 and reinstall it?
[18:13] <oldude67> AcidRain, can you get into recovery mode in grub?
[18:13] <AcidRain> oldude67, im not rly sure how to do that?
[18:13] <StephenS> eh Graphics driver: Unknown
[18:13] <StephenS> I just bought new graphic card today
[18:13] <oldude67> AcidRain, do you see a grub menu when you boot?
[18:13] <AcidRain> oldude67, lol ya
[18:14] <BluesKaj> StephenS,  type jockey in the run command search (alt+f2)
[18:14] <oldude67> AcidRain, then got advanced user and then to recovery mode
[18:14] <AcidRain> oldude67, then what?
[18:14] <StephenS> BluesKaj, nothing
[18:14] <oldude67> AcidRain, it has an option to boot in to base line
[18:14] <StephenS> now I have two searches in historu showing :(
[18:14] <StephenS> history*
[18:14] <excito> How to get back the original theme and icons for ubuntu? I accidentaly deleted something and only have high contrast theme in appearance settings?
[18:15] <kunji> StephenS: Additional Drivers has been moved to Software Sources, it's a tab there now
[18:15] <excito> here's the problematic image of the current theme and no ambiance original theme - http://i.imgur.com/mWmoekG.png
[18:15] <BluesKaj> kunji, yeah but it should show up in the run command ?
[18:15] <trism> excito: make sure light-themes is installed
[18:16] <excito> trism, how does one go about doing that?
[18:16] <StephenS> ok Im in that
[18:16] <kunji> BluesKaj: Software Sources should, I believe Additional Drivers does not.
[18:16] <StephenS> now what?
[18:16] <BluesKaj> kunji, not good
[18:16] <trism> excito: sudo apt-get install light-themes; in a terminal
[18:16] <StephenS> It says Im using x.0rg ATI/
[18:17] <StephenS> AMD/ATI display wrapper
[18:17] <StephenS> from xserver-xorg
[18:17] <qwebirc739989> Testing.
[18:17] <StephenS> does this mean I have druver? If so, why it says in about info that I dont have?
[18:17] <AcidRain> worse linux idea ever: append logs to xsessions-errors.log
[18:17] <excito> perfect. Thank you very much trism
[18:17] <kunji> BluesKaj: Yeah.. there wasn't really any legacy support on that, one day it was just like that all of a sudden T.T
[18:18] <excito> trism: everything works/looks perfect now. Thanks once more
[18:18] <BluesKaj> time to realign and resync the factoids
[18:19] <Cenerentolo> hi all, how can i block hated sites from google research on firefox?
[18:20] <kunji> Cenerentolo: I don't think you can stop them from showing up in the search, you mean block following the links?
[18:21] <Cenerentolo> I mean, are there some options to have a personal block list for my research on google using firefox?
[18:22] <BluesKaj> !info jockey-gtk
[18:22] <AcidRain> oldude67, im in the grub prompt
[18:22] <AcidRain> this doesnt look like a recovery promot
[18:23] <oldude67> AcidRain, in the grub menu it has an advanced user mode, in it it has a recovery mode.
[18:24] <AcidRain> oldude67, ok got it. im reparing project packages
[18:25] <Dennis8162> Me again
[18:26] <Dennis8162> IT stil wont work :(
[18:26] <Dennis8162> i did everything you said
[18:26] <gordon_> how do i set quassel back to its default?
[18:27] <Rawad> hi
[18:28] <AcidRain> when trying to login through console. i have a scrolling error saying: unable to enumerate usb device on port 2
[18:28] <AcidRain> how do i fix this so i can login >_>
[18:28] <AcidRain> its typing over my username and password
[18:28] <Dennis8162> Heres the error i get: http://www5.picturepush.com/photo/a/12296728/img/Images/270213-1813.jpg
[18:29] <llutz> AcidRain: just type blindly and login
[18:29] <Azure_> guys
[18:29] <Azure_> i need help
[18:29] <AcidRain> llutz, cool man it worked
[18:29] <Azure_> one of my friends wants windows back
[18:30] <Dennis8162> why isnt it working :(
[18:30] <Azure_> he had linux before, he has swap, /, and his DATA partition
[18:30] <AcidRain> one more thing. how do i start the x server?
[18:30] <Azure_> he wanted to install windows but he wasn?t able to delete the swap partition
[18:30] <Azure_> so he wanted me to ask
[18:30] <Azure_> how to delete a linux-swap partition?
[18:31] <AcidRain> startx, when using this command. i get error: failed to activate core devices
[18:32] <kunji> Azure_: Boot from a livecd and use gparted, if he want's to use the space for his windows partition though, then he'll need to resize the windows partition, so he should make a full backup before doing that to be safe.
[18:32] <Pici> Azure_: if for some reason the windows installer won't delete it, you can load up an Ubuntu live-cd, and use gparted from there to manage your partitions
[18:32] <BluesKaj> Azure_, with a partitoner app or live cd , delete the swap , the expand the preceding partition into the freeapce where swap used to be
[18:33] <Dennis8162> help,,, please???
[18:33] <oldude67> AcidRain, you are in recovery mode, try rebooting
[18:33] <Azure_> there is no windows partition currently
[18:33] <Azure_> only unallocated space, swap and his DATA drive
[18:33] <gordon_> i have a video bug where there is a blur line 3/4 of the way up the screen
[18:33] <AcidRain> oldude67, i just dont know what to do man
[18:33] <BluesKaj> Dennis8162, have you run a md5 sum on your ubuntu OS image ?
[18:33] <oldude67> type reboot
[18:34] <AcidRain> oldude67, im rebooting. but all of this is scary. how am i going to get my files back when all fails?
[18:34] <AcidRain> i run like.... 15 servers. all of which are very important to me
[18:34] <Dennis8162> whats a md5sum?
[18:34] <kunji> Azure_: Ok, then expanding isn't needed, that space will just be all set for windows to use when installing after using gparted to delete the swap
[18:34] <Azure_> kunji
[18:34] <BluesKaj> !md5sum
[18:34] <Azure_> ok
[18:34] <Azure_> thanks
[18:34] <Azure_> downloaded gparted and burning it
[18:35] <Azure_> thanks god i brought my notebook to him
[18:36] <Bray90820> so is there  a way to tur off the onscreen eybord when using a physical one
[18:36] <AcidRain> Dennis8162, to be more precise. and md5sum is a hash of a certain data block used to check the integrity of a download by re md5 hashing it and comparing the 2 hashes against each other
[18:36] <AnalogConspiracy> OerHeks, it didn't work. :(
[18:36] <Dennis8162> ok
[18:36] <gordon_> is there a way to tell if my computer parts (video card, SSD, etc) are supported by ubuntu ?
[18:37] <zAo^> How can I adjust the screen brightness in xfce?
[18:37] <Azure_> kanji, thanks for help
[18:37] <Dennis8162> g2g
[18:37] <Azure_> *kunji
[18:37] <AcidRain> oldude67, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=8a835738043db1e30fb949e120c9b77c&p=8621525&postcount=10 this is very similar to my issue
[18:37] <AnalogConspiracy> I was wondering if maybe someone could help me try tethering my phone to the computer and using the internet that way? My phone is rooted, it's an LG Optimus Elite from Virgin Mobile, and I'd like to use easytether to connect to the internet.
[18:37] <Azure_> my friend says he tried to delete the partition before from a linux cd but it wasn?t visible
[18:38] <Azure_> he said it looked just as unallocated space
[18:38] <zAo^> AnalogConspiracy: why not use Wifi tethering?
[18:38] <AnalogConspiracy> My WiFi USB adapter is still not working. It randomly stops.
[18:39] <kunji> Azure_: Sounds like it's already deleted then.
[18:39] <oldude67> AcidRain, that post says the person is out of hard drive space, is that your issue as well?\
[18:39] <AnalogConspiracy> I've never seen or even heard of problems like this before. But give me one moment.
[18:39] <AcidRain> oldude67, actually its very possible
[18:39] <AcidRain> oldude67, my issue is that the xsessions-error.log file got up to 60gig ish.
[18:39] <Azure_> kunji, when we load the windows setup, it is there

[18:39] <AnalogConspiracy> Here's the lsusb for my WiFi Adapter. It's a NetGear WNA1100 N-150 Wireless Adapter.
[18:39] <oldude67> AcidRain, well then you need to go back into recovery mode and try freeing up some disk space.
[18:39] <AcidRain> oldude67, i deleted the file, but then when i restarted, i am approached with this issue
[18:40] <kunji> AnalogConspiracy: I've seen and heard of them.. only conclusion I could draw though was faulty hardware T.T in my cases.
[18:40] <AcidRain> oldude67, so your saying its possible the file didnt delete?
[18:40] <AnalogConspiracy> kunji: :'(
[18:40] <kunji> Azure_: Are you sure gparted doesn't see it then?
[18:40] <oldude67> AcidRain, check your disk space.
[18:40] <Azure_> kunji, he did not use gparted
[18:40] <HappyNewYear13> what's the name of that device similar to a calculator where some worker from an x company goes house by house to register data, but insead of anotating on a paper he/she registers it there, and you can write a digital signature too. it's like a pocket pc but with many buttons like a calculator. what's its name?
[18:40] <Azure_> alright, we booted gparted up
[18:41] <Azure_> we don?t understand those keycap settings
[18:41] <AcidRain> oldude67, ok. trying to get into recovery now. it takes like 20min to get there :/
[18:41] <Azure_> keymap
[18:41] <kunji> Azure_: keymap?  Just go with something that looks standard, if there's a default value it's probably fine
[18:42] <sssdf> do i need to reconnect in order to use vpn ?
[18:42] <oldude67> AcidRain, sorry for the mishap, didnt realize you might be out of space.
[18:42] <gordon_> i have a video problem is this the right channel to ask for help ?
[18:42] <AcidRain> oldude67, its cool man! thanks for your help! i hope we can get this figured out
[18:42] <kunji> Azure_: Oh.. you're using the gparted specific livecd, I actually haven't used that before, I use the Ubuntu LiveCD which happens to have gparted on it.  That should work pretty much the same way though.
[18:42] <oldude67> AcidRain, have to leave for now, just ask in room others can help as well.
[18:43] <Azure_> well, ubuntu isn?t light anymore
[18:43] <sssdf> i mean if i set up a vpn right now do i need to restart the connection in order to connect to vpn ?
[18:43] <AcidRain> lol. no they cant
[18:43] <AcidRain> :P
[18:43] <Azure_> gparted sees it!
[18:43] <AnalogConspiracy> So yeah, anyways. I'd like to try usb tethering, but I don't know anything about it. Easytether seems to be the easiest option. And I know it will work. When I do try to connect, I see the two green lights when it tries to connect. Meaning, I think I'm already close to establishing a connection. I can't figure out why it won't though.
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain  I haven't followed, but repeat your question every 10 minutes or so, until someone enters who can help -- in 1 line
[18:44] <sssdf> anyone ?
[18:44] <kunji> Azure_: good, I don't think it's mounted, so just right click and delete, then the green checkmark to apply the changes.
[18:44] <kunji> Azure_: If it when ahead and used it, then you'll need to right click -> swapoff first.
[18:44] <AcidRain> MonkeyDust, issue is currently: im out of disk space. and i am trying to get into recovery mode to attempt to delete some
[18:45] <wdennis> Hi all - what do I need to do to get my custom-compiled libvirtd daemon to start on boot? (i.e. how to add a program to start on boot)
[18:46] <Azure_> kunji, now i see why we weren't able to delete it, the swap was deleted but fell under /dev/sda1 so it became extended
[18:46] <Azure_> oh man
[18:46] <kunji> wdennis: I want to say rc.local
[18:46] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain  is this useful http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2198752/adding-a-start-up-via-command-line-ubuntu
[18:46] <Azure_> i think there is no possible way to move it out from /dev/sda1?
[18:47] <wdennis> kunji: thought about that, but is there a way to add it into /etc/init.d like the other services?
[18:47] <gordon_> i am new to ubuntu is this the right channel to ask about technical problems ?
[18:47] <AcidRain> MonkeyDust, no not rly :/
[18:47] <kunji> Azure_: Hmm, are both that and the data partition in the same logical partition?
[18:48] <kunji> gordon_: yep, right place
[18:48] <Azure_> yes
[18:48] <MonkeyDust> AcidRain  or this: scroll down to rc.local http://linux.bihlman.com/2010/learn-linux-help/running-commands-at-startup-in-debian-and-ubuntu-the-simplest-approach/
[18:48] <Azure_> and the soon-to-be windows partition is just in sda
[18:48] <Azure_> before linux, only the data was logical
[18:48] <dn4> where does my usb hdd show up at in ubuntu
[18:49] <sssdf> places
[18:49] <kunji> Azure_: Ok, so then I guess you would probably want to delete the swap, then resize the logical to move it over so the start corresponds with the start of the data partition.
[18:49] <Azure_> well, he told me that he didn?t want linux anymore cause he didn?t like the look
[18:49] <gordon_> under system settings / details graphics says unknown and i have a video glitch where there is a blur line from the left side of my screen all the way to the right side of the screen which only happens when i scroll up or down
[18:50] <Spine> Anyone know how to get to the cmd+shift apple keys on ubuntu?
[18:50] <Spine> I really need squiggly () and brackets
[18:50] <Azure_> kunji, the swap is already deleted
[18:50] <Azure_> it is now ?unallocated? under dev/sda1
[18:50] <Azure_> and i need to move that unallocated to dev/sda
[18:50] <gordon_> i tried all the ubuntu restricted and updated the system
[18:51] <Azure_> if someone can upload a picture or a really detailed manual, please do so
[18:51] <Guest7041> I have wirelles problem... When i try to turn it on, netbook just restarts.. im using ubuntu 12.04
[18:51] <gordon_> is there a way to get the right graphics drivers ?
[18:51] <kunji> Azure_: Well, you don't move it to /dev/sda... /dev/sda just refers to the entire drive
[18:51] <Azure_> kunji, sorry i am a linux noob
[18:52] <kunji> Azure_: So basically /dev/sd<x>  are devices, in this case it's a hard drive.  Then numbers are used to enumerate partitions.  Basically what you want here is one partition that has your data, and everything else to be unallocated.
[18:53] <Azure_> exactly
[18:54] <Guest7041> I have wirelles problem... When i try to turn it on, netbook just restarts.. im using ubuntu 12.04
[18:55] <kunji> Azure_: So delete anything that's not the data partition, and not the logical partition that contains the data partition.  Then right click the logical partition (the extra colored border) and select resize/move and resize it so it just contains the data partition.
[18:55] <StephenS> Hey
[18:55] <StephenS> I lost connection, anyway when I do ssh to some server I have password delay
[18:56] <StephenS> I tried everything, installed sshd, and then put UseDNS no in sshd_config and restart ssh, which not helped
[18:56] <StephenS> I re-logged as user, and still the same error, I put gasp to no and still nothing
[18:56] <StephenS> I'm clueless what to do else..
[18:56] <StephenS> That password delay prompt is a tricky one dunno what to do
[18:56] <ajacom> i made a mistake and typed sudo chmod 777 /lib ... how can I restore its permissions ?
[18:56] <kunji> Azure_: hmm, is there a way you can post a screenshot somewhere, it would help me see exactly how things are layed out
[18:57] <LS\MFT> One question, does indicator-weather work again?
[18:57] <LS\MFT> I thought it didn't work.
[18:57] <jrib> ajacom: change it back to 755
[18:57] <ajacom> jrib, thanks
[18:57] <Azure_> kunji, no way to post a screenshot
[18:57] <AcidRain> ok all. i am in recovery mode. how can i locate the xsession-error.log file. im not seeing it inside of /var/log
[18:57] <AcidRain> any advice?
[18:57] <bekks> ajacom: Did you use -R ?
[18:57] <jrib> StephenS: did you restart the server after making changes to your sshd_config?
[18:57] <Azure_> i can just make a pastebin pastie that shows the partitions
[18:57] <k3ks> Hey, I've got a problem with my network connection, every 5min or so all TCP connections drop
[18:58] <llutz> AcidRain: /home/username/.xsession-errors
[18:58] <kunji> Azure_: Sure, that would help I thijnk
[18:58] <Bray90820> is there a way to turn off the onsceen keybored from the menubar
[18:58] <k3ks> Has anybody an idea where to start looking for the source of the problem?
[18:58] <StephenS> jrib, yes I did, sudo service ssh restart after I edited ssh/sshd_config
[18:58] <StephenS> it did not helped
[18:58] <jrib> StephenS: what ubuntu version?
[18:58] <StephenS> 12.1
[18:58] <StephenS> 10
[18:58] <AcidRain> llutz, its not located there either
[18:58] <jrib> StephenS: can you pastebin your current sshd_config?
[18:58] <HeXiLeD> how do i get iperf to run as system service on ubuntu ?
[18:58] <StephenS> !paste
[18:58] <HeXiLeD> manuelly it is iperf -s -D
[18:59] <AcidRain> how can i view files from command line that are hidden?
[18:59] <HeXiLeD> *manually
[18:59] <AcidRain> i did sudo dir
[18:59] <Guest7041> I have wirelles problem... When i try to turn it on, netbook just restarts.. im using ubuntu 12.04
[18:59] <llutz> AcidRain: ls -la /home/username/.xsession-errors
[18:59] <ajacom> bekks, nope
[18:59] <ajacom> sudo
[18:59] <StephenS> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5571331/
[19:00] <AcidRain> llutz, ok. i see the file. and i deleted it using rm .xsessios-errors.log
[19:00] <AcidRain> but when i execute df command. it says still 100%
[19:00] <StephenS> I have GSSAPIAuthentication set to no
[19:00] <newroad> hmmmm
[19:00] <StephenS> and UseDNS to no, other is by default.
[19:00] <StephenS> Do I need to restart PC? :D
[19:01] <diverdude> How do i search in man files?
[19:01] <Pici> diverdude: within a particular one?
[19:01] <newroad> what would cause my virtualbox icon to stop working? when I double click the icon, the app never loads. But if I open virtualbox via command line, it works fine?
[19:01] <diverdude> Pici,  i want to find -g inside man g++
[19:01] <Pici> diverdude: type /-g   and then press enter
[19:01] <llutz> diverdude:  /-g
[19:02] <Pici> diverdude: press n to go to the next match
[19:02] <AcidRain> llutz, after this. i did rm -rf ~/.Trash/*. still 100% full
[19:02] <Guest7041> I have wirelles problem... When i try to turn it on, netbook just restarts.. im using ubuntu 12.04
[19:02] <diverdude> thx
[19:03] <llutz> AcidRain: you did that as root? ~ refers to /root then, maybe not what you want
[19:03] <Bray90820> is there a way to turn off the onsceen keybored from the menu bar
[19:03] <Azure_> kunji
[19:03] <Azure_> http://pastebin.com/Hn3BMJ59
[19:03] <stacky> is there any problem in graphics compatibility of HP-dv6 with ubuntu 12.10 ?
[19:03] <StephenS> jrib, what to do?
[19:04] <goodtime> Bray90820: you turn it off with you display in system settings
[19:04] <jrib> StephenS: try disabling gssapi authentication client-side (in ssh_config and not sshd_config)
[19:04] <goodtime> your*
[19:04] <jrib> StephenS: there's lots of discussion here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/84899
[19:05] <kunji> Azure_: Ok, yeah, you'll want to resize /dev/sda1, there should be unallocated space at the start of it, so you can shrink it to start at the same place as /dev/sda5
[19:05] <AcidRain> llutz, the only thing located in my trash folder are a few small files.
[19:05] <AcidRain> i dont think the xsession-errors.log file deleted, even though it said it did
[19:05] <Azure_> ok
[19:06] <llutz> AcidRain: "ls -lah /home/username/.xsession-errors   " to check, and DON't remove that file, while X is running...
[19:06] <Bray90820> goodtime i know that but i was wondering if there way a way to quickly just turn it on an off when switch from from my on schreen to my phisical keybored
[19:06] <Bray90820> physical
[19:06] <kunji> Azure_: So there's the rectangle for /dev/sda5, and a bigger one around it for /dev/sda1, right click the bigger one and choose resize/move
[19:06] <newroad> what would cause my virtualbox icon to stop working? when I double click the icon, the app never loads. But if I open virtualbox via command line, it works fine?
[19:06] <goodtime> oic
[19:07] <AcidRain> llutz, no such file or directory
[19:07] <AcidRain> llutz, im in the console right now. no gui
[19:07] <StephenS> jrib, I have read a lot on google about problem and still not working ill try to edit ssh
[19:07] <AcidRain> x wont boot cause of no disk space
[19:07] <kunji> Azure_: There should be a rectangle with arrows on the end, grab the left one and drag it as far to the right as it will go.
[19:07] <kunji> *ends
[19:07] <llutz> AcidRain: ln -s /dev/null /home/username/.xsession-errors                 then reboot
[19:08] <AcidRain> llutz, do i need to include the file ext
[19:08] <AcidRain> ?
[19:08] <AcidRain> its .log
[19:09] <Azure_> it worked kunji
[19:09] <Azure_> you are the best!
[19:09] <llutz> AcidRain: xsession-errors.log? odd filename
[19:09] <Bray90820> goodtime do you know of any way to do what i want
[19:09] <kunji> Azure_: ^_^
[19:09] <AcidRain> llutz, wat is odd about that? :/
[19:09] <Azure_> kunji, one last question, are those 2MB at end normal? (see the pastie)
[19:09] <AcidRain> oh wait. your right ^_^ nvm. sry
[19:09] <llutz> AcidRain: because the file usually is .xsession-errors
[19:10] <AcidRain> llutz, ok man. rebooting. lets see if this works
[19:10] <AcidRain> llutz, seems to be doing better than normal
[19:10] <kunji> Azure_: They're fairly normal, you'll get them depending on how alignment is done for the partitions.  I wouldn't bother moving the partition to get that space.
[19:10] <Azure_> ok
[19:10] <AcidRain> llutz, it even mounted drives properly this time :D
[19:10] <AcidRain> !!!!
[19:11] <Azure_> so i guess now i should click the green Apply icon
[19:11] <Azure_> right?
[19:11] <AcidRain> BAM! way to pull me llutz im at the gnome desktop
[19:11] <kunji> Azure_: yep
[19:11] <AcidRain> though my disk is still at 100%!
[19:12] <llutz> AcidRain: find ~ -type f -size +10000000
[19:12] <Azure_> kunji, now i can close it, reboot and install windows?
[19:12] <llutz> AcidRain: find ~ -type f -size +1G (easier than counting zeros)
[19:12] <goodtime> bah
[19:12] <kunji> Azure_: Yep, should be all set
[19:13] <Guest7041> I have wirelles problem... When i try to turn it on, netbook just restarts.. im using ubuntu 12.04

Now everything is working with the tg3 driver but still shows up as 0, why is this happening, shouldn't it be 1 (for my wired network)?

[19:45] <goodtime> oic hmm idk man
[19:46] <away> tgunr, what command exactly are you using?
[19:46] <tgunr> sudo -s
[19:46] <goodtime> try sudo bash tgunr
[19:47] <StephenS> can someone tell me about that launcher
[19:47] <tgunr> same message
[19:47] <StephenS> minimaze/maximaze thing? Also where is icon when I click on it to display desktop only
[19:47] <StephenS> tgunr, which message?
[19:47] <no_gravity> How do you install a desktop on Ubuntu 12.04 via apt-get?
[19:47] <StephenS> I disconnected I don't see some of it
[19:47] <tgunr> sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu
[19:48] <iceroot> tgunr: you changed the hostname and did not open a new terminal?
[19:48] <no_gravity> I was able to install gnome with "apt-get install gnome-core". How do I install unity?
[19:48] <ronalds_m> if laptop restarts on enabling network, you should really go for service..
[19:48] <goodtime> are you root tgunr
[19:48] <iceroot> no_gravity: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[19:48] <tgunr> no, everything is fine there after a restart
[19:48] <tgunr> yes

[19:49] <Sashmo_> I was reading somewhere that there is a wine trick that can allow me to use windows drivers on linux, has anyone heard of this??
[19:49] <Guest7041> goodtime: next time i wont turn off wirelles and no problem
[19:49] <no_gravity> iceroot: E: Unable to locate package ubuntu-desktop
[19:49] <goodtime> yes no_gravity
[19:49] <tgunr> one thing i did notice was in /etc/resolv my domain is not set from the DHCP server, all my other machines using DHCP have a domain
[19:49] <iceroot> no_gravity: cat /etc/issue
[19:49] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: Wine isn't designed to offer that functionality, you may be thinking of a program I forget the name of what lets you use Windows WiFi drivers, it does it different if you care about the technical aspects but may be what youre thinking of
[19:49] <Sashmo_> NDSUIwrapper?
[19:50] <no_gravity> iceroot: stupid me - i was on the wrong box :)
[19:50] <tgunr> on a mac i can do `ipconfig get packet en0' to see the dhcp reply, don't see a ipconfig on ub
[19:50] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: something like that. All I know is it doesn't use the actual drivers just the configuration files inside of them. I can research it if you like
[19:50] <iceroot> Sashmo_: wine can not handle drivers
[19:50] <iceroot> Sashmo_: you mean "ndiswrapper" for wifi-drivers
[19:50] <goodtime> wine stinks anyhow lol
[19:51] <Sashmo_> so, what can I do? woudl ndiswrapper work for other things like capture cards?
[19:51] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: No. It's designed for WiFi only, and as I said, Wine won't work with Drivers and they have no intention of ever making it do so if I remember correctly.
[19:51] <Sashmo_> hmm, so no other way?
[19:52] <iceroot> Sashmo_: no
[19:52] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: you're pretty much stuck to looking for Linux drivers for the capture card
[19:52] <Sashmo_> kk thanks
[19:53] <Sashmo_> know anyone that will work with the source code of the source driver and make one for linux?
[19:54] <kirk601> i recently installed gdm and went from the default ubuntu (13.04) window manager to lightdm. while running lightdm programs would close after being open a few seconds and a several programs wouldnt open at all. i got it back to the default window manager and its working fine again but now i want to go to gdm and try it. can anyone help me?
[19:54] <iceroot> Sashmo_: when there is a open source driver there is normally also a linux-driver
[19:54] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: It'd be hard so much even getting the source since most drivers are closed source on hardware which isn't well documented. I can't say there's no chance of finding someone here willing, but you're most likely to get better help just searching Google :p
[19:54] <kirk601> its already installed, so i cant run the first time setup that lets you change from default to GDM
[19:54] <iceroot> Sashmo_: but i never heard of open source drivers for capture cards
[19:55] <StephenS> I have two sound outputs, usb headphones and analog speakers, speakers work while usb dont
[19:55] <StephenS> In output I see both recognized, but the question is how to switch between those two?
[19:56] <Sashmo_> iceroot: I'm working with a reseller of these capture cards, and they gave me the source code for the windows drivers, so what I really need is someone to port them to linux
[19:56] <iceroot> Sashmo_: which licence?
[19:56] <Sashmo_> iceroot: licenese?? dont get it?
[19:56] <joshu> hi I'm trying to boot an old macbook air 2008 with ubuntu desktop 12.04 burnt on DVD….it boots and then it gets stuck with a blinking cursor….I don't understand why it doesn't work
[19:57] <iceroot> Sashmo_: what licence does the source-code have
[19:57] <jamesgcd> Sashmo_: To avoid any legal issues you should really make sure you're even allowed to just hand out the source first :p, just to ensure you don't get into trouble for it. That's what iceroot means by lisence I believe
[19:57] <Sashmo_> jamesgcd: I have all of that.  Its straight from the company
[19:57] <joshu> btw I used this iso http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64+mac.iso
[19:57] <StephenS> help pls
[19:58] <chamunks> Can I format a windows 8 uefi drive on a secondary computer and not have any complications from doing that?
[19:58] <Sashmo_> iceroot: I have full permission to do what ever I need to make the driver to work in linux
[19:58] <chamunks> I dont know how to ask this question any simpler.
[19:58] <streulma> joshu: I know what you have to do :)
[19:58] <chamunks> I would like to completely remove windows 8 from a computer that has no apparent option to boot linux via any means
[19:58] <joshu> streulma ok I'm all ears :D
[19:58] <chamunks> uefi really doesnt appear to support booting an installer disk.
[19:58] <iceroot> Sashmo_: check the licence first
[19:58] <streulma> joshu: you need 2 devices, one cd and one USB
[19:59] <iceroot> Sashmo_: and does the driver use non-free firmware and so on
[19:59] <streulma> joshu: boot from the cd, the reason is that it not find a root device
[20:00] <streulma> joshu: if you boot from cd, it will use BIOS emulation boot and not EFI
[20:00] <streulma> joshu: if that just not works, try to boot from the USB (ok, it's EFI)
[20:00] <iceroot> Sashmo_: and normally you should contact the kernel hackers at the LKML (Linux kernel mailing list) with that
[20:01] <Sashmo_> iceroot: thanks for the help
[20:01] <joshu> streulma sorry I'm confused…I thought the amd64+mac.iso was modified to work on Macs due to EFI issues….and the MBA 2008 only has one USB port I don't have a hub handy right now
[20:01] <iceroot> Sashmo_: but when the driver is not FOSS, i dont think someone will handle that
[20:01] <Sashmo_> iceroot: ok, good to know, thanks
[20:01] <streulma> joshu: yes but that's the method
[20:01] <mojtaba> Hi, Does anybody know how can I connect with my android to internet thru ubuntu?
[20:02] <streulma> joshu: and booting from CD with Alt ?
[20:02] <jamesgcd> mojtaba: you want Ubuntu to uses android's internet, or the other way around?
[20:02] <streulma> joshu: then you have a menu to choose, and choose "Windows" cd
[20:02] <joshu> streulma yes correct that is what I've done
[20:02] <iceroot> mojtaba: you want that ubuntu will be the access point?
[20:02] <mojtaba> jamesgcd: the other way.
[20:02] <iceroot> !ics | mojtaba
[20:03] <mojtaba> iceroot: I just want to set the gateway the ubuntu to android.
[20:03] <joshu> streulma I've done that several times….and it shows the purple screen and then it shows black screen with underscore cursor blocking in top left corner
[20:04] <jamesgcd> mojtaba: If you have WiFi but aren't using it, creating a wifi hotspot the way that link shows how is definitely the easiest way. Unfortunately, I don't think you can share the connection with WiFi if you're using the same WiFi card to receive it, although I think that wouldn't be a problem here
[20:04] <mojtaba> I have proxy settings in my ubuntu, and want to connect to the internet via my ubuntu from my android device.
[20:05] <mojtaba> I am connected to the internet through the wifi access point with both devices.
[20:06] <iceroot> mojtaba: you are confusing it
[20:06] <streulma> mojtaba: you want to use the internet connection from Ubuntu ?
[20:06] <iceroot> mojtaba: what system should be the gateway?
[20:06] <streulma> mojtaba: the best thing is share a wired internet connection over wifi
[20:06] <mojtaba> iceroot: I have android device and ubuntu laptop. with ubuntu I can bypass the filtering, but with android I can not.
[20:07] <iceroot> mojtaba: so you want android to use ubuntu as the gateway
[20:07] <mojtaba> iceroot: yes
[20:07] <mgolisch> mojtaba: how do you bypass it?
[20:07] <iceroot> mojtaba: read the ics-link from ubottu
[20:07] <Zentaur> Hi
[20:07] <Zentaur> could anybody help me with a very basic question?
[20:07] <iceroot> !details | Zentaur
[20:08] <mojtaba> iceroot: I have proxy server settings, also I can boot my laptop with tails.
[20:08] <iceroot> mojtaba: what?
[20:08] <iceroot> mojtaba: you read the link?
[20:08] <Zentaur> i need to start the sftware that came with my UPS. it is correctly installed
[20:09] <Zentaur> well, i need to execute by entering cd /opt/upspilot/
[20:10] <Zentaur> and then ./monitor
[20:10] <mgolisch> Zentaur: and that fails?
[20:10] <mgolisch> Zentaur: whats the error message?
[20:10] <Zentaur> i can do t in the terminal but i want to meke a button in alacarte
[20:10] <mgolisch> Zentaur: make a shell script with those commands then
[20:11] <Zentaur> that's it mgolisch  :)
[20:11] <genii-around> Zentaur: Perhaps see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto#Installing_custom_init-scripts
[20:11] <Zentaur> but how can i do it in a line?
[20:11] <T4b> I've got an usb-ethernet-adapter (mcs7830) which works out of the box on an other arm-linux system I own (Pandora) but on this one here it doesn't. lsusb find's it, but it's not in NetworkManager's menu like I'm used to. I haven't got a clue what to do now.
[20:14] <T4b> (obviously, because I'm asking in this channel, I'm using Ubuntu here. To be exact it's Lubuntu 12.04 which was modified by some people to run on the mk802)
[20:14] <iceroot> T4b: technicly its not Lubuntu
[20:15] <iceroot> T4b: like raspbian is not debian and mint is not ubuntu
[20:16] <T4b> iceroot: I think but for some hacks to make it run it's the same as Lubuntu. Does it still not count as Lubuntu?
[20:17] <iceroot> T4b: no
[20:17] <iceroot> T4b: normally these hacks are kernel-based
[20:17] <lisandrop05> hello to every one, I'm making script to download and compress using 7z and I'm getting this error: System error:
[20:17] <lisandrop05> Too many open files
[20:17] <iceroot> T4b: and we dont support modified version of ubuntu/lubuntu
[20:17] <lisandrop05> can any one tell me something about it?
[20:17] <iceroot> lisandrop05: how many files?
[20:17] <lisandrop05> just one
[20:17] <iceroot> lisandrop05: and you want to search for "ulimit"
[20:17] <iceroot> lisandrop05: one?
[20:18] <lisandrop05> ulimit?
[20:18] <iceroot> lisandrop05: only one file in the archive?
[20:18] <lisandrop05> I don't know what it is
[20:18] <iceroot> lisandrop05: could you paste your command and the extact error message?
[20:18] <lisandrop05> I just want to compress 1 file
[20:18] <iceroot> !paste | lisandrop05

[20:21] <serp_> close some files nd try again
[20:21] <T4b> iceroot: So where else should I get support? And I don't think it's a problem with the distro, it's just that I haven't gotten a clue on what to try next. May I need to load a kernel module, what would be it's name on vanilla ubuntu?
[20:21] <lisandrop05> the file exist
[20:21] <yigal> amen
[20:22] <lisandrop05> and is writeable
[20:22] <T4b> How would I find that out myself?
[20:22] <wilx> Hi.
[20:22] <wilx> Has anybody tried to play the game Warzone 2100 after recent update of the package in Ubuntu?
[20:22] <iceroot> T4b: maybe try #ubuntu-arm
[20:22] <iceroot> T4b: if i get it correctly you are using it on arm
[20:22] <wilx> It seems to me that units pathing is dumber than it used to be.
[20:23] <Ziber> If I wanted to, I could use ldap to create user accounts on a particular server, right?
[20:23] <iceroot> Ziber: yes
[20:23] <wilx> The units cannot circle around even a small group of other units and get stuck not going to their destination.
[20:23] <Ziber> iceroot: How might I start learning ldap and do that?
[20:23] <iceroot> !bug | wilx
[20:23] <T4b> yes. But shouldn't stuff like the name of kernel modules or the general steps one should follow to solve such a problem be the same on all architectures?
[20:23] <iceroot> Ziber: #slapd
[20:24] <iceroot> T4b: normally yes but because the kernel is not the ubuntu kernel we cant help
[20:24] <iceroot> T4b: we dont know what they patched in the kernel
[20:24] <iceroot> T4b: so ask the channel of your distri
[20:24] <jhutchins_wk> T4b: I would expect dmesg to have some useful information on what's going on.
[20:25] <lisandrop05> anything about too many files open error compressing only one file using 7z?
[20:25] <jhutchins_wk> T4b: Also, more uncommon systems tend to get their support in forums/mailing lists more than in IRC.  The users are more spread out in realtime, so immediate gratification isn't available.
[20:26] <T4b> jhutchins_wk: Ah, yes, dmesg is always a good idea, should have thought of that, thanks.
[20:27] <lisandrop05> any one knows how can I compress and split a files using custom size and aloow it to be decompressed on any operating system
[20:27] <lisandrop05> ?
[20:27] <jhutchins_wk> lisandrop05: Can't guarantee "any operating system" but zip will do that.
[20:28] <FatDarrel> Hello how do i   get Ubuntu 12.04 server to install over nfs?

[20:28] <FatDarrel> anyone installl  ubuntu over nfs?
[20:30] <lisandrop05> justinfung: I like more zip because it's free (but how can I split the files)??

[20:42] <linux_user> Hello, I'm having problems with Unity 3D (Ubuntu DE) and I can't figure out how to disable LLVMPIPE
[20:42] <Bray90820> ubuntu touch for like the nexus 7 or the nexus 4 is that built off of a ARM architecture
[20:43] <linux_user> Yes
[20:44] <linux_user> Bray90820, Yes, Ubuntu works on Arm stuff as well
[20:44] <Bray90820> linux_user they should put out an x86 version for intel tablets
[20:44] <linux_user> I think they are as well
[20:44] <Bray90820> cool
[20:45] <Bray90820> because i have a convertable netbook and woulld really like to see ubuntu touch on it
[20:45] <Bray90820> now what would be cool is when i converted it to a netbook it used the desktop veron and when i turned it into a tablet it has ubuntu touch
[20:46] <linux_user> http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/tablet/partner
[20:47] <linux_user> The high end tablets are capable for x86 Ubuntu
[20:47] <Bray90820> yes
[20:47] <Bray90820> like the HP touchpad
[20:47] <Bray90820> and the HP slate
[20:48] <Bray90820> actually if i remember correctly the touchpad is arm
[20:48] <linux_user> Does anybody here know how to disable Unity LLVMPIPE back to 3D?
[20:49] <Bray90820> inux_user just t have both of toes intrfaces on the same system would be cool

[20:58] <TheLordOfTime> linux_user:  you've already asked your quesiton, have some patience
[21:00] <linux_user> Sorry, thelordoftime, but won't my answer get buried?
[21:00] <MonkeyDust> linux_user  then repeat it every 10-15 minutes or so
[21:00] <TheLordOfTime> linux_user:  that doesn't mean you should repeat it every minute
[21:00] <TheLordOfTime> maybe every 10 or so minutes, but not every minute.
[21:01] <linux_user> Apologies

[21:21] <ubuntu_installl> Really no one knows?
[21:22] <BlitzHere> You know, I find terminal commands easier for certain things, but wouldn't it be better to give strictly gui instructions to newbies as far as possible?
[21:23] <jamesgcd> BlitzHere: maybe, maybe not. It's probably best to do both, since the GUI can only do so much. If they've had previous terminal experience even if there was a GUI way, it makes it less intimidating when they're forced to actually use it
[21:23] <Pici> ubuntu_installl: I don't understand what you're asking. If you don't want to install Windows 8 why are you installing it? If you can boot off the disc, assume that your DVD-write worked

[21:25] <MoPac> I need to diagnose a framerate/jittering problem that I have on some Flash web applications. For example, a game (Haxball.com) that runs very smooth in Crhome on Win7 is choppy in Ub12.10.  Is this likely to be the flash player, a browser difference, a video card driver issue, some other process interfering... any guidance on how to narrow the possibilities would be much appreciated
[21:26] <xangua> MoPac: 100% possibilities that flash sucks in linux
[21:28] <MoPac> xangua: Any chance that trying different plugins would help? Or is it a more fundamental suckage?

[21:28] <xMopxShell> whats up with that?
[21:30] <BlitzHere> genii-around I use LXDE myself - and I prefer to do package management with apt-get myself. It's just that CLI is scary to a lot of people. I find people to be more receptive and comfortable to go through a lenghty series of unnecessary graphical interfaces rather than type in a simple command (update && install, for instance). Just a thought when trying to make ubuntu friendly for newbies...

[21:49] <Ftroop> hi got a problem with duplicates  in apt-get seems to have stemmed from steam  any ideas ?

[21:51] <bryan1980> where can i get help to recover my password?
[21:51] <bryan1980> or put new windows on
[21:51] <escott> bryan1980, boot too recovery mode and run "passwd your_username"
[21:51] <bryan1980> i can't remember my user name
[21:52] <bryan1980> how do you get into recovery mode?
[21:52] <escott> !recovery
[21:52] <escott> thats not right
[21:53] <escott> its an option during the boot
[21:53] <escott> recovery or single user mode
[21:53] <escott> you can see all the accounts by looking in /home at the directories there or looking at /etc/passwd
[21:53] <bryan1980> i have a mini dell
[21:53] <nino_> does anybody know how to update grub in terminal? There is something changed in the computer but i cant see it in grub
[21:54] <braaaains> would somebody please help me? I just installed 2 new WD red drives, but whenever I try to partition I get this error :(
[21:54] <braaaains> Failed to save partition : parted -s /dev/sdb unit cyl mkpart primary 0 243201 failed : Error: /dev/sdb: unrecognised disk label
[21:54] <jamesgcd> nino_: does sudo-update grub not work? Could be sudo grub-update I always forget :p
[21:54] <ikonia> nino_: what's changed ?
[21:54] <genii-around> nino_: sudo update-grub
[21:54] <penguinman> nino_: you can edit the grub configuration file then update-grub
[21:55] <nino_> my windows was crashed and i have now windows 8 loader. But now i have windows 7 on the laptop
[21:55] <braaaains> it sees both hard drives, but cannot format/partition them
[21:55] <nino_> Before it was windows 8 but i want know to see windows 7 loader
[21:55] <ikonia> nino_: sorry, don't understand how that relates to grub
[21:55] <nino_> *now*
[21:55] <nino_> I cant see it in the grub menu
[21:55] <ikonia> nino_: looks os-prober
[21:55] <nino_> When i boot my computer
[21:56] <jamesgcd> nino_: you'll need a windows 7 installation disc or recovery media. Also I'm not sure how much of a grub problem it is given you've got mix and match bootloader/os
[21:56] <cITs> http://pastebin.com/dvr1FgH7 <-- doesn't work as dual monitor setup, any idea why that might be?
[21:56] <penguinman> nino_: ah, gotcha. an update grub should locate the windows partition for you
[21:56] <jamesgcd> nino_: I'm assuming the windows 8 bootloader/windows 7 os is the problem anyway, try the other advice first :p
[21:56] <braaaains> i'll literally paypal you $5 if you can help me fix this
[21:57] <nino_> penguinman thanks that was the problem :)
[21:57] <penguinman> nino_: np
[21:58] <ikonia> braaaains: put a label on it, use mklabel
[21:59] <captainlinux> Guys, I have posted a blueprint for raring ringtail on Launchpad some short time ago. Just checked my blueprints and I assume that it got deleted. Is this possible? If so, what could be the reasons of it?
[21:59] <ikonia> captainlinux: try in #launchpad
[21:59] <captainlinux> ikonia: thanks

[22:06] <Hootch> "I made absolutely no changes..." this is a only windows (tm) slogan :D
[22:06] <Spine> Im trying to figure out how to install .tar.gz files, but everywhere I look, it only tells me how to extract it
[22:06] <cITs> antonio_: what does your dmesg say?
[22:06] <SonikkuAmerica> Hootch: "I made absolutely no changes" said no one ever.
[22:06] <Spine> Is tar.gz only sourcefiles?
[22:06] <cITs> Spine: because it is a package
[22:07] <jrib> Spine: well tar.gz are things you extract.  Sometimes they have software inside.  What are you trying to install?
[22:07] <cITs> it is packed like .rar
[22:07] <xangua> Spine: you could statr with tell what you want to install
[22:07] <Spine> JDK

[22:09] <Bray90820> what i want is to have a script exacuted every time i open/close the lid of my netbook
[22:09] <cITs> antonio_: kernel module seems to be loaded properly
[22:10] <Bray90820> and the guide i have told me to use eybored shortcuts
[22:10] <Bray90820> keybored
[22:10] <cITs> try running pulseaudio from commandline and see what it does when trying to configure the mic in
[22:10] <escott> Bray90820, if you want it hooked into suspend resume then hook it into suspend resume
[22:10] <Bray90820> no
[22:10] <Bray90820> that's not what i want
[22:10]  * qwebirc7618 hides his gold-like pulseaudio config files
[22:10] <Bray90820> i wanted one for tablet mode and anotherone for laptop mode
[22:11] <Bray90820> for the onscren keybored
[22:12] <antonio_> cits: E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.
[22:12] <Bray90820> and a few other buttons for scroolbard and what not

[22:13] <Bray90820> it's a convertable netbook/tablet
[22:13] <cITs> antonio_: kill it?
[22:13] <Bon-chan> is it possible to run opengl games using a onboard video card?
[22:14] <Bray90820> depends on the onbored video card
[22:14] <thiefy`> what is the command to list what groups a user is part of?
[22:14] <bekks> "id"
[22:14] <cITs> Bon-chan: should be possible but only with the closed firmware as far as i know
[22:14] <Bray90820> do you know the motherbored modle
[22:14] <kostkon> Bon-chan, yes
[22:14] <braaaains> would anybody be kind enough to help me create label my disks with parted from the command line ? I can create labels for my main drive but cannot seem to (or don't know how to) specify /dev/sdb
[22:14] <Bray90820> Bon-chan do you know the motherbored model
[22:15] <joey8> thiefy`➤ have you tried "users"
[22:15] <tgunr> I have ny interfaces setup as `auto eth0 face eth0 inet dhcp' but after boot the /etc/resolve.conf does not show the domain name which is present in the DHCP reply message. Am I missing something here? On my macs all have my domain name in the file.
[22:15] <joey8> sorry... "groups"
[22:15] <Bon-chan> kostkon, im trying to run tibia here but im getting a "./Tibia: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[22:15] <braaaains> nevermind
[22:15] <thiefy`> i'll try taht. thanks.
[22:15] <Bray90820> Bon-chan that is beyond my knoldge i will let omeone else take over
[22:16] <braaaains> argh!
[22:16] <kostkon> Bon-chan, try installing the package:  libglu1-mesa
[22:16] <Bon-chan> lets see
[22:16] <Guest31314> I am trying to install 12.04 64bit on my new laptop. I am trying to dual boot it with Windows. For some reason the installer wont see the Windows partition. It shows the whole drive as free space. I tried  partitioning the drive in Windows, but it still shows the whole drive as free space. What can I do to fix this?
[22:17] <gray--> just swapped from debian squeeze to 12.10 - anyone able to recommend an alternative to the sas2ircu tool for querying storage controllers?  i've got a lsi sas2008, onboard a dell r515
[22:18] <Bray90820> so anyone want to take a stab at my keybred shortcut probelum from before
[22:18] <Bon-chan> kostkon, its installed
[22:18] <Bon-chan> but cant run it
[22:18] <SonikkuAmerica> Bray90820: Like my Fujitsu Lifebook
[22:18] <SonikkuAmerica> (Ref: <Bray90820> it's a convertable netbook/tablet)
[22:18] <Bray90820> yes
[22:18] <Bray90820> mine is a dell insperon duo tho
[22:19] <Bon-chan> kostkon, oh wait! i think im getting it!
[22:19] <Bon-chan> just a sec!
[22:19] <braaaains> ikonia: I got it! While you may not want money... could I interest you in perhaps... CAT PICTURES ? Either way, thank you kindly, sir.
[22:20] <Bray90820> what i want is a 1 configuration when it's in laptop mode and a different configuration when it's in tablet mod
[22:20] <braaaains> I never had to do that with any of my other drives for some reason.
[22:21] <joshu> anyone help me with cmake installation on ubuntu 12.04
[22:21] <Bray90820> Anyone wnna help me with that
[22:21] <jrib> joshu: you want to install cmake?
[22:21] <Corestrike> If I have Team Fortress 2 installed on WIndows 7 but I don't have the time to reinstall it on Ubuntu, how can I play the game on Ubuntu?
[22:21] <joshu> jrib i have installed from apt but it's 2.8.7 but i need a newer version
[22:21] <jrib> joshu: why?
[22:21] <kickingvegas> hi folks - any way to get natural scrolling working with gnome apps?
[22:22] <leptone> i've tried various text-to-speech add ons in various browsers. they all seem unable to find a voice synthesizer bc they install fine the just dont make any noise/read anything
[22:22] <joshu> because i need a newer version ;)
[22:23] <goodtime> Corestrike: you cant
[22:23] <Corestrike> Why not? I can't move files over?
[22:24] <goodtime> the format for that game is ntfs not a linux kernnel format
[22:24] <Corestrike> So It's either reinstall it or I can't play it?
[22:25] <goodtime> yep
[22:25] <goodtime> that is going to end in like 1 year thoe
[22:25] <Corestrike> That would work if it wasn't going to take more than 48 hours to install.
[22:26] <goodtime> brbg
[22:26] <goodtime> brb*
[22:26] <jhutchins_wk> Corestrike: There are ways to configure wine to use the existing windows system resources, which would let you do that, but it's a pretty advanced topic.
[22:27] <jhutchins_wk> Corestrike: THe problem with windows programs is they don't just copy files to a folder.  There are registry entries and library modifications.
[22:27] <Bray90820> is there anyway i can set two things to 1 keybored shortcut
[22:27] <jumadi85> hi all
[22:27] <jhutchins_wk> Corestrike: I'd start by looking at the wine db to see if it even runs under wine.
[22:28] <Bray90820> like i i press it once for enable and then press it again for disable
[22:28] <Bray90820> another question
[22:28] <Corestrike> What about PlayonLinux?
[22:28] <cleamoon> jhutchins_wk, what do you want to run under wine?
[22:29] <Bray90820> anyways i gotta go
[22:29]  * Bray90820 bye bye
[22:31] <xMopxShell> Hi guys. I'm trying to configure ipv6 on ubutnu 12.10. After being connected for a few minutes (15-40) something is automatically deleting the default route for ipv6 (thus killing my connectivity)
[22:32] <Fuzzles> whats heavier unity or KDE?
[22:34] <jhutchins_wk> cleamoon: Corestrike wanted to run and existing game.
[22:34] <cleamoon> which game?
[22:34] <jhutchins_wk> Team Fortress 2?
[22:34] <cleamoon> never here of it...
[22:34] <cleamoon> heard
[22:35] <jhutchins_wk> Claims it took him 48 hrs to install.
[22:35]  * joey8 wonders if that is entirely correct
[22:36] <cleamoon> ...
[22:36] <cleamoon> is that a new game?
[22:38] <ibrahim> hello world I have a question that drives me crazy
[22:39] <BlueNexus> the answer is questions drive the world
[22:39] <ibrahim> lol
[22:39] <BlueNexus> hehe :P
[22:39] <joey8> i reckon the answer is "42"
[22:40] <ibrahim> is about  /usr/include/asm/ dosnt exist
[22:40] <ibrahim> on ubuntu 12.10
[22:40] <SunMoonStar> Is there a way to open an encrypted excel file in ubuntu? I have the password but need to use the file in Linux.
[22:40] <jhutchins_wk> SunMoonStar: Try it with open/libreoffice calc.
[22:41] <BlueNexus> you should be able to do it with libreoffice or openOffice
[22:41] <SunMoonStar> jhutchins_wk: I tried that but it did not provide any options when importing. Do you know that to be a working method?
[22:41] <SunMoonStar> It was nonsensical characters when it opened
[22:41] <cleamoon> ibrahim, what is asm about?
[22:41] <BlueNexus> Have you tried open office
[22:41] <SunMoonStar> no, only libreoffice
[22:42] <jhutchins_wk> SunMoonStar: Did it prompt for the password?
[22:42] <SunMoonStar> jhutchins_wk: no
[22:42] <jhutchins_wk> Hm.  I thought they were compatible but those things change more often than I deal with them.
[22:43] <jhutchins_wk> To teh googles!
[22:43] <SunMoonStar> heh
[22:43] <SunMoonStar> Dr google
[22:44] <SunMoonStar>
[22:44] <chopin_> Whenever I go down a resolution and then go back to my normal, native res, I get a weird black bar down the right side of my screen, where the old resolution ended. Only way I can get rid of it is restarting X. Is there a better way of going about this?
[22:44] <hilarie> I rm'd something I shouldn't have, is there an easy way to recover this, or should I get started on recreating it?
[22:44] <cleamoon> SunMoonStar, maybe you can try to open it with google docs
[22:44] <chopin_> I'm not using gnome or anything. Just X with wmii.
[22:45] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: shall try now
[22:45] <hilarie> Google answered my qeustion nvm :(
[22:46] <cleamoon> chopin_, wmii does behave weird sometimes. but i think there is a shortcut for restarting wmii.
[22:47] <chopin_> cleamoon: Killing wmii doesn't fix it :/
[22:47] <chopin_> I have to totally restart X
[22:47] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: not working
[22:48] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: thx for the suggestion
[22:48] <cantellope> hello. I am trying to do X11 forwarding over ssh. I get this message when I login: /usr/bin/xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/danny/.Xauthority  And I get this message if I try to start an application: PuTTY X11 proxy: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 data did not match (newline)  Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: localhost:10.0
[22:48] <cleamoon> chopin_, ok. that's weird
[22:48] <cantellope> when I do this while ssh'd into another ubuntu box, it works fine.
[22:49] <ncmcxx> how would I go about connecting two interfaces to different isps on the same computer?
[22:49] <cleamoon> SunMoonStar, i think there is something wrong with charactor set. try to open it like this in terminal: LANG=en_US.iso88591 libreoffice
[22:49] <billybob000> im trying to uninstall openjdk.  when i type in sudo apt-get remove openjdk, it prompts me to install more packages... what the..?
[22:50] <cantellope> ncmcxx: either two NIC cards or some fancy routing
[22:50] <braaaains> would you get double the speed with that ncmcxx ?
[22:51] <cantellope> braaaains: you can get more total bandwidth, but each single connection would only utilize one link (in almost all cases)
[22:51] <ncmcxx> no I just want to be able to route an internet connection through the network
[22:51] <ncmcxx> to a network with its own internet connection
[22:51] <escott> ncmcxx, its called bonding
[22:52] <ncmcxx> I dont want to combine them, I want to make one accesssible to apps on a network already connected
[22:52] <cantellope> ncmcxx: need more information about the current network, and exactly how they are connected
[22:53] <ncmcxx> so i can maybe use a proxy to send the browser to the machine with the other internet connection
[22:53] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: nope, maybe I should try openoffice
[22:53] <krababbel> Hi, is there a channel for the Nexus devices?
[22:53] <cantellope> ncmcxx: I've used OpenVPN to achieve a similar setup
[22:53] <ncmcxx> ok network connected to the internet, I have a second internet connection i would like available to applications running on other computers on the network
[22:54] <ncmcxx> cantellope: on the same network?
[22:54] <ncmcxx> internally?
[22:54] <cleamoon> SunMoonStar, they are the same. try this: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 libreoffice
[22:54] <haryv> some one tell me just how fast is fsck -F directory name? I was having some issues making it work, and now, I think it did...in .5 seconds?
[22:55] <cantellope> ncmcxx: I don't think this is really #ubuntu relevant. Would you like to continue in pm?
[22:55] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: Also it gives me a vast array of options when opening the file (various file types). I choose the Microsoft Excel one though it doesn't have an option for 2007 which is I think the version of Excel it was made in
[22:55] <ncmcxx> sure
[22:56] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: it says same thing : read error, unknown or invalid excel file type
[22:57] <cleamoon> SunMoonStar, ok...
[22:58] <SunMoonStar> cleamoon: thanks :P)
[22:59] <cleamoon> SunMoonStar, no problem. : )
[23:06] <omar> any idea on firefox slow on ubuntu 12.04.2

[23:13] <soee> how can i completly remove ubuntu one
[23:13] <soee> with all configurations etc
[23:13] <soee> or only completly remove configuration ?
[23:13] <mattin> im not sure why but it doesn't show for my "ubuntu software center" either, even tho i have it installed
[23:13] <mattin> *even tho i have the google talk plugin installed

[23:14] <jambeedrum> furious iso mount. doenst mounts the iso in the mnt/cdrom directory
[23:14] <jambeedrum> anyone helping?
[23:14] <dmitri> hi guys
[23:14] <dmitri> maybe someone could help me
[23:15] <dmitri> is it possible to connect with smth like Global VPN Client for ubuntu?
[23:16] <dmitri> need to connect with Sonicwall VPN
[23:16] <dmitri> but can't find any appropriate client that can work with it
[23:22] <ferhat> Test
[23:23] <mattin> not a lot of helping in this channel
[23:23] <mattin> anyway, i found my problem.  it's to use the synaptic package manager instead of the ubuntu software center
[23:25] <rjune> mattin,
[23:25] <rjune> that's the problem?
[23:25] <tgm4883> mattin, I assume it shows up in USC under "Show X technical items"
[23:31] <ferhat> Hi
[23:31] <nearst> hi ppll
[23:31] <ferhat> can someone help me by configuring my dwm window manager?
[23:32] <ferhat> join #cat-v
[23:34] <jambeedrum> can i create a directory in the "mnt" folder?
[23:34] <Ben64> yes
[23:34] <jrib> jambeedrum: sure, why not
[23:34] <jaha> any idea why I can run "nmcli nm enable false" through commandline but NOT in sh script run by same user?
[23:34] <jambeedrum> ok ty
[23:34] <prophit> I've installed python2.6, but when I'm trying to build mesos, it can't find libpython2.6.. any idea where the libpython2.6.so* goes?
[23:34] <jaha> CANT*
[23:35] <jrib> jaha: how are you executing the script?
[23:35] <jaha> jrib: through an upstart user-job
[23:35] <jrib> jaha: probably environment or dbus issue (guess)
[23:37] <jaha> jrib: any ideas on how to debug? not realy sure where to start when it works with that same user via commandline
[23:37] <jrib> jaha: what do you actually want to accomplish?  Why are you trying to run this script in the first place?
[23:39] <jaha> jrib: i have a small shell script that checks the internet connection and when its down, after awhile it will restart network-manager via "nmcli nm enable false", "nmcli nm enable true". Since network-manager will only try to reconnect for so long as I found. I need a way to make sure it ALWAYS trys to reconnect. System is hands off.
[23:40] <jrib> jaha: hmm.  I don't too many details about nm.  But have you looked into some configuration that tells nm to keep trying to connect for longer?
[23:40] <abc__> hey guys how do i get kernel 3.5 on LTS ?
[23:41] <jrib> abc__: which LTS?
[23:41] <abc__> jrib 12.04
[23:41] <jrib> abc__: apt-cache search -n linux image backport
[23:41] <kostkon> abc__, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[23:42] <kostkon> abc__, only new isntallations get the quantal kernel. But you can install it yourself: sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-quantal xserver-xorg-lts-quantal
[23:43] <jrib> kostkon: will xserver-xorg pull in xorg if he doesn't have it before?
[23:43] <kostkon> jrib, i hope so :/
[23:43] <kostkon> haven't done it yet
[23:43] <jrib> kostkon: oh, I was thinking this was a server for some reason, but he never said that
[23:43] <kostkon> jrib, oh right.
[23:45] <abc__> kostkon: thanks, but that broke aptitude
[23:45] <jaha> jrib: not that ive found, everyone says scripts or wicd, I tested wicd awhile ago and it wasnt as stable but could be different now, just want to exhaust options with network-manager first
[23:46] <jrib> abc__: broke aptitude how?  Do note that aptitude doesn't play nice with multiarch in 12.04
[23:46] <abc__> jrib: it will remove a bunch of stuff and not install the dependencies
[23:47] <abc__> jrib: i'm running amd64
[23:47] <jrib> abc__: well does apt-get say the same thing?
[23:47] <abc__> jrib: shouldn't aptitude be better and take care of all the dependencies for you ?
[23:47] <parallel21> Any tips on cleaning an ubuntu install without doing a fresh install?
[23:48] <TheAsgard> hey all
[23:48] <abc__> jrib: i've always used aptitude
[23:48] <jrib> abc__: I don't know what you are seeing.  As I said, aptitude has issues with multiarch in 12.04
[23:48] <feeshon> I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 and having trouble with wireless...in Dmesg I am getting authentication with xxxxxxxxxxxx timed out
[23:49] <abc__> jrib: nvm apt-get works
[23:49] <Bray90820> so anyone wanna help me get this keyboard shortcut script working
[23:49] <abc__> jrib: all i'm saying is aptitude has always worked for me and i rarely use apt-get
[23:49] <jrib> abc__: you get any output from: dpkg --print-foreign-architectures ?
[23:49] <Bray90820> i have a dell inspron duo
[23:49] <TheAsgard> anyone have any idea how to run installed drivers in ubuntu
[23:49] <Bray90820> a netboon/tablet hybrid
[23:50] <abc__> jrib: i386
[23:50] <feeshon> Also I am seeing associating with AP with corrupt beacon (but I am connected to that AP right now)
[23:50] <jrib> jaha: have your upstart script output error messages somewhere and take a look.  There's a guide on the upstart wiki for debugging upstart scripts.  If you can't find it, I'll search for it
[23:50] <Bray90820> i want to have a keybored shortcut run every time i switch between tablet and laptop mode
[23:50] <jrib> abc__: right, so definitely stop using aptitude (or, if you don't need multiarch, I guess you could just disable it instead)
[23:50] <abc__> jrib: ahh so you mean mixing i386 stuff with my amd64 base  screws up aptitude ?
[23:50] <jrib> abc__: yes, though it seems to be fixed in 12.10
[23:51] <abc__> jrib: well thanks for clearning that out
[23:51] <abc__> jrib: i'll stick to 12.04 and apt-get from now on then
[23:51] <feeshon> I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 and having trouble with wireless...in Dmesg I am getting authentication with xxxxxxxxxxxx timed out
[23:52] <feeshon> Also I am seeing associating with AP with corrupt beacon (but I am connected to that AP right now)

[23:52] <woo> feeshon: ur ip's are straight?
[23:53] <feeshon> woo: I have it to DHCP
