[09:08] <ikonia> it's not gnome 2
[09:08] <ikonia> it's still gnome 3
[09:08] <sk1special> n/p
[09:08] <luca__> thanks for the help
[09:08] <onoez_omg> gaelfx, is it a good idea to mix mint packages with native ones? :/
[09:09] <nitzs> sk1special: but if a new notification popup occurs, the older one should scroll down to make way. that would've looked cool.
[09:09] <ikonia> onoez_omg: use mint packages on mint, ubuntu packages on ubuntu
[09:09] <gaelfx> onoez_omg: not sure on that one, might wanna check if MATE is in the repos. if it is, it should be more or less fine
[09:09] <onoez_omg> i already did, it is not, thx
[09:10] <nitzs> onoez_omg: do you know about cinnamon?
[09:10] <sk1special> yeah he *called for community/dev input* to help finalize /  update  /whatever make to make it easier to use in the coming updates. was talking about doing same placement but delayed popups by detecting where the cursor was
[09:10] <gaelfx> halfie: ok, I found that NFS shows up in rpcinfo, and it listed the port for it as well, but I was wondering whether or not NFS uses upnp or not?
[09:10] <onoez_omg> nitzs, is it some kind of mint crap again?
[09:10] <nitzs> mint crap?
[09:10] <sk1special> how do i red text people? or is that like a mod thing?
[09:11] <morning> I need help with a failed upgrade to Precise (64). I neglected to turn off x-screensaver, with the result that installation was interrupted while trying to install libc6. Now I´m stuck. I can reboot to a recovery menu but don´t know where to go from there. Guidance?
[09:11] <ikonia> morning: clean install
[09:11] <MonkeyDust> sk1special  colors depend on the IRC program you are using
[09:11] <ikonia> morning: boot from a livecd backup what you need and do a clean install
[09:11] <goddard> each one of these kernels takes up 128MB
[09:11] <goddard> i have like 10 installed
[09:11] <sk1special> but like.. normally its name blue text black. and when you guys do that with my name specifcally it goes all red
[09:11] <morning> ikonia: thank you. will do.
[09:12] <dubey> hello
[09:12] <goddard> or more
[09:12] <uBUxUBu> is anyone here using 12.04 as we speak?
[09:12] <onoez_omg> me
[09:12] <acicula> uBUxUBu: i am
[09:12] <nitzs> onoez_omg: if you don't like unity, and you don't like MATE, cinnamon is your best option. or maybe xfce.
[09:12] <MonkeyDust> sk1special  try /me blah
[09:12] <sk1special> and i am ubu
[09:12] <fishcooker> sk1special: what means by triage.. what difference with confirmed?
[09:12] <dubey> i wan to create a customized ubuntu cd with only required applications. How can i do this ?
[09:12] <goddard> if you like 11.10 i dont see a reason to upgrade
[09:12] <uBUxUBu> does your icon launcher go in and out of site or does it stay fixed acicula
[09:12] <popey> dubey: yes
[09:13] <popey> dubey: maybe look at remastersys? or live-build
[09:13] <MonkeyDust> dubey  try remastersys
[09:13] <acicula> dubey: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[09:13] <Pitel> how can I configure fonts and antialiasing?
[09:13] <sk1special> did you see that message monkey?
[09:13] <gaelfx> what message monkey?
[09:13] <onoez_omg> nitzs, thanks, but mixing things with mint is not an option, reinstalling the whole system is not an option, again, thanks for your attention
[09:14] <killer1> hi.............i wanna install wireless drivers for bcm4312 card and dun wanna install prop. drivers.any help?
[09:14] <jarco> I just installed the new ubuntu using the alternate cd. Now I am only getting to the loading screen. Anyone know how I can boot it in a save mode?
[09:14] <jarco> lowe graphics mode
[09:14] <MonkeyDust> sk1special  this is not the right channel to learn IRC, better join #test or #freenode
[09:14] <dubey> any doc ?
[09:14] <onoez_omg> killer1, are you sure there are some non-prop drivers for your broadcom?
[09:15] <onoez_omg> pff
[09:15] <sk1special> lol ight.  chello gaelfx. i did a fresh install and the same thing is happening with my video again that fixed before.
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> !info remastersys
[09:15] <krababbel> jarco: did you try esc? ctrl+alt+f1 would take you to an alternative terminal. also there is rescue mode in boot menu.
[09:16] <krababbel> jarco: low graphics mode is text mode.
[09:16] <sk1special> depending on options/which driver what video sets i choose. i can get one monitor to wwork fine. or both to work but the windows have that win 98 look to them and no drap and drop between workstations or one working and one grey screen
[09:16] <sk1special> drag*
[09:17] <jarco> krababbel: can i install the nvidia drivers from the text mode?
[09:17] <krababbel> jarco: yes, you can do everything there I guess
[09:17] <onoez_omg> jarco, apt-get install nvidia-current
[09:17] <jarco> The problem is it doesn't seem to go in there :(
[09:17] <krababbel> jarco: can you switch terminal?
[09:18] <krababbel> jarco: try rescue mode
[09:18] <Somya> I am still not able to figure out why the wlan0 driver is not showing up after I have upgraded the ubuntu version to 11.04
[09:18] <gaelfx> does NFS use upnp to autoforward it's port?
[09:18] <jarco> krababbel: nope :( ctrl alt + F 1 - 5 not working
[09:18] <gaelfx> or is there a way to make it do that?
[09:18] <bepebe> is there a network proxy gui, like the one in ubuntu. I have set /etc/apt/apt.conf and /etc/wgetrc with my proxy settings manually, but cannot seem to download Additional Drivers. I am looking for a .deb install or something for the Network Proxy option under System >> Network Proxy
[09:19] <halfie> gaelfx: NFS doesn't use upnp AFAIK
[09:19] <onoez_omg> Somya, could you please provide ur `lspci`, `rfkill list all` and `dmesg`?
[09:19] <krababbel> jarco: try rescue mode and there you can look at /var/log/xorg
[09:19] <gaelfx> halfie: so I have to add the rule to my router myself?
[09:19] <krababbel> jarco: does live cd work?
[09:19] <jarco> krababbel: booting into rescue mode right now
[09:19] <fishcooker> if im upgrade from LL to PP.. on server
[09:19] <halfie> gaelfx: yes, and some NFS ports are random (there is a way to make them static though).
[09:20] <fishcooker> will the unity stuff be installed?
[09:20] <halfie> gaelfx: for simple file sharing, sshfs works without all this mess.
[09:20] <krababbel> jarco: what card do you have?
[09:20] <fishcooker> actually im on server LL
[09:20] <jarco> krababbel: I am not sure. I know it worked with the nvidia drivers under fedora.
[09:21] <gaelfx> halfie: I kinda need it to be gui though
[09:21] <jarco> krababbel: I am in rescue mode now
[09:21] <krababbel> do < onoez_omg> jarco, apt-get install nvidia-current
[09:21] <onoez_omg> fishcooker, from what i see now from 12.04 i suppose (somehow) that the answer is yes
[09:22] <halfie> gaelfx: sshfs mount points can be opened in GUI explorers, is that what you are talking about?
[09:22] <anax> Hello, all! I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04, and I've noticed that I have never installed proprietery drivers for my graphics card. I have the Intel Graphics Family with GeForce 520M graphic card. When I start the Proprietery Drivers application, it shows nothing. My question is, what will happen if I install Nvidia drivers on my own?
[09:22] <gaelfx> halfie: I suppose, more or less
[09:22] <fishcooker> omg onoez_omg
[09:22] <ogra_> fishcooker, if you dont have a GUI now, its wont install  GUI during upgrade
[09:22] <onoez_omg> fishcooker, indeed
[09:23] <gaelfx> halfie: does sshfs require login using the machines UID and pass though?
[09:23] <fishcooker> same here anax
[09:23] <fishcooker> im on the 520m
[09:23] <fishcooker> i've openbox installed ogra
[09:24] <fishcooker> ogra_:
[09:24] <halfie> gaelfx: ssh requires running sshd on the server and on client it involves giving credentials to mount a folder.
[09:24] <onoez_omg> 540m with optimus and bumblebee and solid unmoveable gnome applets on 12.04 :/
[09:24] <ogra_> fishcooker, so it wont pull in unity, it will just upgrade what you have
[09:24] <anax> Well, I've added this PPA for X.org drivers, but I don't know what will happen if I install nvidia-current, so I came to ask. :)
[09:24] <jarco> how do i setup the dns ? Its not getting that from dhcp. Ping to external ip works
[09:25] <fishcooker> go for it anax
[09:25] <onoez_omg> jarco, /etc/resolv.conf is ur friend
[09:25] <fishcooker> or try the recommended one
[09:25] <fishcooker> it works for me
[09:26] <ray_> When I was testing Ubuntu 12.04 from CD I couldn't connect to the internet, but after installing I was able to connect
[09:26] <gaelfx> how do you check the permissions on a folder?
[09:26] <gaelfx> in cli I mean
[09:26] <PawanPutraHanuma> gaelfx, ls -lrth
[09:26] <anax> Is there a chance of something going terribly wrong? Like, me losing my desktop enviroment, and then having to return it all. Or will I always be able to enter Unity 2D and work from there?
[09:27] <Thete> Does 12.04 still require the special +mac version to work right?
[09:27] <onoez_omg> anax, you won't lose ur desktop environment, the most risky part is falling back to ur current nvidia driver or purging it at all in order to use intel graphics (if u have one)
[09:27] <SteveBell> hi all. got a question about keyboard layouts. using a macbook here and the keys are somewhat twisted. in os X e.g. all firefox commands like new tab would be cmd+n. but in ubuntu it is ctrl+n. is there a possibility to adjust the keys so that they would work like in os x?
[09:28] <onoez_omg> anax, things shouldn't go bad i suppose, don't worry
[09:28] <ray_> How do I switch back to gnome?
[09:28] <xapel> has anyone here found a good workaround or fix for this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/947296
[09:28] <fl1bbl3> install gnome shell
[09:29] <anax> Well, I have no installed drivers at the moment, just the ones that came with Ubuntu, so I guess I'm good to go. I'll let you guys know what happened! Thanks a lot! :)
[09:29] <sk1special> dont lie lol. my desktop has died several times trying to update/fix my nvidia drivers. but its usually let me log in as a guest which apparently uses default settings to start and change back the nvidia settings then reboot which fixes it..
[09:29] <jarco> krababbel: in rescue mode i cat resolv.conf. It sais the file is not there. I can see it when i LS
[09:29] <fl1bbl3> ray_: apt-get install gnome-shell
[09:29] <ray_> I heard Unity can be switched to Gnome from the login screen. So I have to install gnome-shell then
[09:30] <onoez_omg> sk1special, ur desktop was remeining the same alive, while u were experiencing problems with driver
[09:30] <ogra_> xapel, the bug has a workaround described at the bottom
[09:30] <ray_> Arg, how do I minimize a window?
[09:30] <krababbel> jarco: not sure, resolv.conf is handled by resolvconf package. You have no connection?
[09:30] <sk1special> lol my desktop was hiding in a black/grey/purple void of emptyness depending.
[09:31] <onoez_omg> jarco, `whereis resolv.conf`
[09:31] <jarco> krababbel: I have connection but no dns
[09:31] <onoez_omg> sk1special, u always have an option to log into virtual console or over ssh remotely
[09:31] <krababbel> jarco: you could try creating /etc/resolv.conf
[09:32] <jarco>  /etc/resolv.conf (i think this one is empty) and /usr/include/resolv.h
[09:32] <sk1special> which i have no idea how to do :] third day now on linux. i like it..but alot to learn/figure out/get to work the way i want
[09:32] <jarco> I cant save to it
[09:32] <ray_> The only way I can get back to this window is by doing alt-tab. How do I minimize windows?
[09:32] <abhi_69> i can't access NTFS partitions from nautilus
[09:32] <sk1special> @ ray..should be if you move your mouse near the top itll pop up with a close/min/max buttons on the left
[09:32] <ray_> Never mind. I figured it out
[09:33] <abhi_69> nautilus giving me error: seg fault (core dumped)
[09:33] <abhi_69> any help?
[09:33] <krababbel> jarco: You could enter dns into /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head
[09:33] <krababbel> jarco: then do resolvconf -u
[09:33] <onoez_omg> sk1special, the best way to start (in order to learnthings clear) is getting an old version of slackware distribution for example and setting up all the stuff including graphical environment, imho it is the best way
[09:34] <morning> To recover from a failed upgrade to Precise, I´m reinstalling Oneiric from a live CD. The installer detects "that the follwoing disks have mounted partitions: /dev/sda." And it asks whether I want the installer "to unmount the partions on these disks before continuing." I want to be careful not to lose the data on my hard disk. What should be my answer: Yes or no?
[09:34] <ray_> What I figured out is different. It's what is on the left. What's that called?
[09:34] <abhi_69> i can't open those using nautilus
[09:34] <ogra_> ray_, you mean the launcher ?
[09:35] <ray_> How would I know, lol
[09:35] <qEssence> Hello.
[09:35] <ogra_> well, the stripe on the left with the icons is called launcher :)
[09:35] <sk1special> yeah youre right..from my experience with windows anyway. but i need a functioning comp lol. so when i get some xtra cash ill build a breakable
[09:35] <abhi_69> anyone? help me plz, nautilus problem
[09:36] <ikonia> abhi_69: I told you what to do
[09:36] <ikonia> abhi_69: the error is "directory is missing" check if it's actually there
[09:36] <nitzs> it just been about 20 hours and already 70 mb worth of updates?
[09:36] <abhi_69> ikonia, i already do that
[09:36] <jarco> krababbel: error /run/resolvconf/interface either does not exist or is not a directory ...
[09:36] <ikonia> abhi_69: did what ?
[09:36] <abhi_69> install samba
[09:36] <ray_> OK, TY, For some reason I don't see minimized, and so forth on the top left of Firefox when hovering there
[09:36] <abhi_69> now that error is solved
[09:36] <krababbel> jarco: sorry, not sure about rescuemode and dns then
[09:36] <abhi_69> i got the idea from a post of ubuntu forum
[09:36] <sk1special> i was installing win 8 beta actually. and it crashed my pc so hard i couldnt reinstall from any of my backup/recovery/actual oem discs of any win vs..so i came here
[09:37] <gaelfx> wow, finally got NFS working :D
[09:37] <gaelfx> thanks folks
[09:37] <onoez_omg> and yeah, if someone interested, i figured out how to move applets in gnome 3 classic fallback session lol, Alt+right click helps
[09:37] <abhi_69> now a new error: seg fault (code dump)
[09:37] <ikonia> abhi_69: I have no idea why you are doing this, the error is clear, "directory is missing"
[09:37] <ray_> TY, ogra_ for the info
[09:38] <ray_> I got it now, I prefer the window bars being where they used to be
[09:38] <abhi_69> ikonia, now i'm getting new error, only a single line error while trying to access them, that is: seg fault (core dumped)
[09:38] <abhi_69> no other errors now
[09:38] <abhi_69> no directory missing error or so
[09:38] <ikonia> abhi_69: no idea, you'd need to analyise the core which is a very complex process
[09:38] <qEssence> Im having some issues with my hard drives on 12.04 install, i have four ones, one SSD of 250gb and three SATA of 3TB each, But, installationg its only recognizing the SSD, and one of the SATA. Both fdisk and gparted shows the same, and the four HDD's are visible and useable on win7. Does anyone knows what can be causing this?
[09:39] <abhi_69> i already try a solution- that is removing gvfs-metadata from ~/local/share and reboot pc
[09:39] <abhi_69> not working
[09:39] <onoez_omg> qEssence, do u use some kind of removable sata-controller?
[09:39] <ray_> OK, so when I resize a window the menu is like before then. OK, I am finally getting the hang of Unity a little. I should go to the beginner channel. Bye all
[09:39] <abhi_69> does this problem related to nautilus-gdu extension?
[09:39] <nitzs> abhi_69: start nautilus from the terminal and try to access the NTFS partitions. paste the crash output on paste.ubuntu.com
[09:40] <qEssence> onoez_omg: No, they are all connected directly to motherboard.
[09:40] <md_5> I am using xbinkeys on 12.04 in an attempt to make back / forward on my mouse work
[09:40] <md_5> It works correctly on firefox but not nautilus...
[09:41] <onoez_omg> qEssence, did u try to play with it in order to try to see some of them u didn't with pluggin and unpluggin\changing them one with another?
[09:41] <md_5> I can't think of any reason why this would be the case, but it is :(
[09:41] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Yep, Same results.
[09:41] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Weird, ah?
[09:42] <selite> How do I access the recovery partition on Vaio VPC EB2H4E?
[09:42] <qEssence> Do you think this can be related to nouveau.blacklist=1 command?
[09:42] <onoez_omg> qEssence, u always able to see only one of those sata-drives and u're 100% positive its not about physical connection trouble?
[09:42] <onoez_omg> qEssence, can u throw ur `dmesg` output just to look through?
[09:43] <abhi_69> nitzs, here it is- http://paste.ubuntu.com/949382/
[09:43] <SteveBell> got a question about keyboard layouts. using a macbook here and the keys are somewhat twisted. in os X e.g. all firefox commands like new tab would be cmd+n. but in ubuntu it is ctrl+n. is there a possibility to adjust the keys so that they would work like in os x?
[09:43] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Im 100% sure its not a connection problem, because i can widely use them all on Win7. Maybe im wrong whit this and it does not prove anything.
[09:43] <md_5> could nautilus perhaps be eeating my button presses?
[09:43] <action09> hi , anyone installed 12.04 on Giada N20 please ?
[09:44] <woozly> guys. how to create link to executable file?
[09:44] <woozly> like in /usr/bin/
[09:44] <skramer_> I would like to get my old serial WACOM ArtPad II to work with Precise. I compiled the kernel module, but still Ubuntu says that it did not detect any WACOM tablet... Am I missing something?
[09:44] <onoez_omg> qEssence, i doubt it is connected to nouveau, and yeah, it is weird =) `dmesg` could countain some hints
[09:44] <ogra_> woozly, man ln will tell you :)
[09:44] <sk1special> @steve..https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts has alot of stuff
[09:45] <dpkingma> Hello #ubuntu! Does anyone have a Juju Charm for MongoDB 2.0+ ?
[09:45] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Never used dmesg before, newbie here =P, since fidisk and gparted does not shows anything, do you think dmesg will work?
[09:45] <md_5> dmesg shows everything
[09:45] <selite> How do I know if my laptop has a recovery partition?
[09:45] <SteveBell> sk1special thx, will have a look.
[09:45] <qEssence> Im not on installation proccess right now, back to Win7 to gather some info.
[09:46] <nitzs> abhi_69: looks like it is a reported bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/811171
[09:46] <onoez_omg> qEssence, dmesg shows some of the events related to kernel,hardware and its interaction, it is just a command generally speaking that u type into ur terminal =)
[09:47] <uBUxUBu> selite, did you buy it new, and did you never manipluate the partitions?
[09:47] <sk1special> n/p . found it trying work around broken video drivers yesterday :]
[09:47] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Yeah, i know, i meant that fdisk and gparted does not seem to be able to `see`  the HDD's, but i can try it.
[09:48] <qEssence> onoez_omg:  i was also thinking on the alternate install CD.
[09:48] <ogra_> dpkingma, probably a better question on #ubuntu-server :)
[09:48] <selite> uBUxUBu: I bought it like a year ago and I only installed Ubuntu, my guess is there is a recovery partition. But, I can't access it with F10 I guess it's because Win7 doesn't work.
[09:48] <selite> uBUxUBu: What should I do?
[09:48] <dpkingma> ogra_: Thanks! I
[09:48] <dpkingma>  I'll Try!
[09:48] <abhi_69> nitzs, now what?
[09:48] <abhi_69> wait for fix?
[09:48] <Kriss3d> Hmm can you in gnome add a menu sorta like "places" but add another name ?
[09:49] <abhi_69> nautilus giving this error while trying to access NTFS partitions only
[09:49] <md_5> sigh I can't switch to ubuntu until I get this back/forward working in nautilus
[09:49] <onoez_omg> qEssence, dmesg often shows if something goes really wrong like with hdds, controller and other things related to your current problem, so it would help much if u would just copy-paste whole dmesg cmd output into pastebin and let us to see it =)
[09:49] <uBUxUBu> selite, some computers access it from an f key some need the recovery disk to get into it
[09:49] <abhi_69> it's ok for ubuntu partition though
[09:49] <qEssence> onoez_omg: Thank you so much, i'll do that.
[09:50] <selite> uBUxUBu: Hmmm, I will try the f key, I am sure that I wasn't given a CD with Win7 on it.
[09:50] <selite> uBUxUBu: Thank you.
[09:50] <onoez_omg> qEssence, np, we havn't fixed it yet though lol and i have no idea if i will be able to help really, but always keep in mind that dmesg would help ppl to deal with such kind of troubles
[09:51] <jatt> I upgraded to pangolin yesterday and the whole system feels much slower than before the upgrade, are there any known issues regarding performance?
[09:51] <uBUxUBu> selite, some computers will get you to recovery by typing recovery in the search bar and even burning the disks from that point
[09:51] <qEssence> onoez_omg: I undersand, just a step closer.
[09:51] <jatt> I am using xfce without composition
[09:51] <jatt> I wonder if it is related to the kernel
[09:52] <selite> uBUxUBu: Which search bar? I am currently runnin Ubuntu and Win7 doesn't start it says something like No OS files found.
[09:52] <uBUxUBu> oh sorry nm
[09:52] <uBUxUBu> most manufacturers wil ship the recovery disks if you need them for 10-15 bucks
[09:53] <onoez_omg> the other question is if u really need those hah
[09:54] <drussell> jatt: hmm, not that I'm aware of, everything seems to be a bit quicker here, but it's all pretty subjective
[09:54] <drussell> jatt: what are you finding slower?
[09:55] <ojii> so I upgraded to 12.04 yesterday, and if I log into unity3d, the displays go black after about 1-2 minutes after login. Just before going black, it looks like unity is actually crashing hard.  What could I do to fix this or figure out why it happens?
[09:55] <dad> gey'
[09:55] <dad> et
[09:55] <dad> hi
[09:55] <jatt> virtualbox, also the whole desktop (open the applications menu), chrome, etc
[09:55] <Guest55679> hi
[09:55] <jatt> it's verz sluggish
[09:55] <uBUxUBu> selite it is possible that you installed ubuntu and dedicated the entire hard drive to ubuntu thus wiping out w7
[09:55] <Guest55679> ikr
[09:56] <Guest55679> hu
[09:57] <zvacet> uBUxUBu: no
[09:58] <uBUxUBu> during the partitioning sectiona person may delete all partitions and then rebuild the mif they choose to do so zvacet - am i wrong?
[09:59] <MonkeyDust> uBUxUBu  yes, if you did not use them, if you know what you are doing
[10:00] <ItsMeLenny> the latest ubuntu is completely screwed up, nothing is working, it is driving me up the wall, and ive been using ubuntu for like 3 years now
[10:00] <ItsMeLenny> if not longer
[10:01] <jarco> well
[10:01] <uBUxUBu> selite is trying to find his recovery partition, i merely stated that it is possible to have deleted it, i do not condone doing that, unless someone specifically wants too
[10:01] <ikonia> how long you've used it has no relevence really
[10:01] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  what's wrong?
[10:01] <ItsMeLenny> ikonia, it does if it's gotten worse
[10:01] <jarco> seems like it is Impossible to install ubuntu on a non supported video card even if you know the nvidia drivers will work. There is just no option given to do this ...
[10:01] <maya> Why isn't it easy to make the Task Tray appear in unity5 with a mouse?
[10:01] <ikonia> not really, won't change the fact that you're having problems
[10:01] <ikonia> jarco: what's the actual issue you are having ?
[10:02] <maya> It feels like I need more effort just so it slides out/appear.
[10:02] <ItsMeLenny> MonkeyDust, unity was just glitchy as all buggery, both 3d and 2d, same with gnome classic, am now running cinnamon and just everything is still screwed up
[10:02] <maya> I try turning up Unity Tray sensitivity up, but it's not giving me the desired effect.
[10:02] <maya> :(
[10:02] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  i use classic too, define "screwed up"?
[10:02] <jarco> ikonia: When I boot my system I see the loading screen but it stops there.
[10:03] <ikonia> jarco: what makes you think that's a video card issue ?
[10:03] <ItsMeLenny> the unity in 11.10 unity worked fine for me
[10:03] <onoez_omg> ItsMeLenny, gnome classic session of mine http://ovrload.ru/temp/%D0%A1%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%BA-2012-04-27_14:01:00_72520411b406b47081c0644e6c684b1c.png
[10:03] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  and define "everything"
[10:03] <jarco> ikonia: because I had the same problem with fedora.
[10:03] <jarco> ikonia: and with arch
[10:04] <ItsMeLenny> MonkeyDust, (i dont know how you managed to change the toolbar), but screwed up would be going into the menus and trying to go into a menu and it dissapeares the first 3 times
[10:04] <ikonia> jarco: ok, so it's not really an ubuntu issue then
[10:04] <ikonia> it's just an incompatible video card
[10:04] <ItsMeLenny> making eveyrthing take 3 times as long, thats for classic
[10:04] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  classic works fine here
[10:04] <ItsMeLenny> for unity the whole new side sensitivity makes you have to sit there ramming the mouse into the side til it pops up
[10:04] <jarco> ikonia: no the problem is the video card support. The actueal problem for me is that I can't find a way to boot ubuntu in a way that the 3d acceleration is not needed
[10:04] <jarco> fedora did that by default
[10:05] <rodayo> the gnome-terminal background image option kinda got messed up on my laptop recently. I remember before you could have a solid background image for the term. Right now the transparency option controls both the solid color and the bg-image...so if I set the opacity to 0% the image is barely visible unless you place over a dark background app and if I set it to 100% it's just a solid color....is anyone else having this problem?
[10:05] <ikonia> jarco: as in boot the install or boot the installed system ?
[10:05] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  maybe you just have to get used to the new Unity
[10:05] <onoez_omg> i don't feel that "unity presense"
[10:05] <jarco> ikonia: I installed with the alternate image because the live one didnt work.
[10:05] <ItsMeLenny> MonkeyDust, it was still all glitchy and they uglied it up with shadows that didnt look right
[10:06] <ItsMeLenny> i'm just cracking the shits because they ruined something in which they were on a good track
[10:06] <ikonia> jarco: ok, so unity needs a 3d accelerated environment, so I'm not quite sure what your end goal is
[10:06] <ikonia> ItsMeLenny: drop the language
[10:06] <MonkeyDust> ItsMeLenny  there's MyUnity to modify Unity (i don't like/use it myself, tho)
[10:06] <ItsMeLenny> ikonia, the language? i can only speak english
[10:06] <ikonia> ItsMeLenny: the swearing
[10:07] <ItsMeLenny> i never swore..
[10:07] <jarco> ikonia: Well. I need to get the nvidia driver on there? Or use some other way to actually SEE anything
[10:07] <sk1special> try this jarco? sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates   sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[10:07] <ikonia> ItsMeLenny: please re-read what you said and try to control it
[10:07] <ItsMeLenny> dunno what you're on about boy
[10:07] <ikonia> jarco: what video card is it ?
[10:07] <jozefk> hello. what are the system requirements for 12.04 LTS, 64bit? Can I install it on 10GB ext4 partition or do you recommend more?
[10:07] <ikonia> ItsMeLenny: I'll send you a pm with the bad language in
[10:07] <jarco> sk1special: I would love to. But I cant get into a cli. And in resque mode I am unable to get dns working
[10:08] <maya> How can I make my unity tray appear sooner using my mouse cursor?
[10:08] <jarco> ikonia: Very unsure about that sorry. I know I should know that but I wilol not open my bosses laptop :)
[10:08] <ikonia> jarco: lspci
[10:08] <acicula> jozefk: it should fit, but its somewhat tight
[10:08] <jozefk> then 20GB?
[10:09] <acicula> jozefk: that would be better yes
[10:09] <jarco> ikonia: geforce 9200M g
[10:09] <ikonia> not familier with that one
[10:09] <ikonia> is it an optimus card ?
[10:09] <jarco> the nvidia drivers will wortk
[10:09] <ikonia> are you sure ?
[10:09] <jarco> i only need to actually get them on the system
[10:09] <cincinnatus> Does Canonical still operate at a loss?
[10:09] <cincinnatus> (I hope not)
[10:09] <ror> hopefully a built-in torrent version of the dist-upgrade will happen in the future, had to give up as downloading the package list data fell to 14.4kbp
[10:09] <ikonia> jarco: have you installed the nvidia package ?
[10:09] <jozefk> can I install LXDE on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit?
[10:09] <cincinnatus> oh wait... it's the support channel... sorry]
[10:10] <acicula> ror: what mirror are you using?
[10:10] <jarco> ikonia: Cant get dns to work in rescue mode :(
[10:10] <ikonia> jarco: how are you setting it ?
[10:10] <the-erm> jozefk: I don't see why not.
[10:10] <zsolt> hi there!i can't udenrstand if I use espeak --phonout=/path/file.txt the text file remains empty
[10:11] <jozefk> I guess with simple apt-get install lxde right?
[10:11] <the-erm> I think there is a 64bit version of lubuntu.  So lxde should work.
[10:11] <the-erm> yup.
[10:11] <jozefk> ok thank you. I will try that
[10:11] <Eastwood> What's up everyone
[10:12] <jarco> ikonia: I am trying to get it into /etc/resolv.conf (cant seem to write into that)
[10:12] <action09> hi, can someone help with these errors ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR } .. etc  http://paste.ubuntu.com/949428/  I can't install 12.04 on a giada n20
[10:12] <action09> please
[10:12] <onoez_omg> is there something useful like `sysv-rc-conf` designed to help to rule init scripts? at some point i've met problems while using it
[10:13] <if124> hello all, would it cause problems if i switch distros while having the same account name and the same home partition?
[10:13] <ikonia> jarco: use sudo
[10:13] <jarco> ikonia: I did. The error i get is. can't open linked file for wrting
[10:13] <Eastwood> Jarco try this
[10:13] <Eastwood> echo "[some repository]" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:13] <Eastwood> The tee command is called as the superuser via sudo and the -a argument tells tee to append to the file instead of overwriting it.
[10:13] <Eastwood> Your original command failed, as the IO redirection with >> will be done as the regular user, only your echo was executed with sudo.
[10:13] <Eastwood> Calling a sudo subshell like
[10:13] <FloodBot1> Eastwood: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:13] <Eastwood> sudo sh -c 'echo "[some repository]" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
[10:13] <acicula> if124: its the user_id's that have to match, not the name. Your system should work just fine, but the installed applications may have issues with different data formats in your home directory
[10:14] <zvacet> jozefk: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[10:14] <onoez_omg> jarco, just `echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>">/etc/resolv.conf`
[10:14] <Eastwood> sudo sh -c 'echo "[some repository]" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
[10:14] <if124> ok acicula, thanks
[10:15] <the-erm> I think there's a prepend command to make it permanent.
[10:15] <cincinnatus> Is there away to prevent .xsession-errors from filling up the hard drive in Oneiric Ocelot?
[10:16] <jarco> onoez_omg: it sais: no such file or directry :s.
[10:16] <cincinnatus> * a way
[10:16] <onoez_omg> jarco, it shouldn't if u're doing it right
[10:16] <cincinnatus> Every now and then, .xsession-errors grows so fast it can consume my whole Linux partition in no time
[10:16] <jozefk> zvacet, is there any difference between that and if I just go for official lubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit?
[10:16] <jarco> I am doing it right
[10:17] <jarco> onoez_omg: don't forget that I am in rescue mode. Perhaps that is causing this behaivior
[10:17] <onoez_omg> oh
[10:17] <nickkontos> hello, is there any way to fix alt+tab in 12.04 in gnome-session without compiz?
[10:18] <acicula> action09: is this an old system or old disk?
[10:18] <finnrobi> Hi. Is it possible to install packages to a partition on my harddrive that I can not boot from, using a livecd? Something like apt-get install foo --root=/media/unbootable/ ?
[10:18] <onoez_omg> jarco, can u show us `mount` output?
[10:19] <krababbel> jarco: just tried rescue mode, resolv.conf is there for me
[10:19] <onoez_omg> finnrobi, chroot is ur friend
[10:19] <jarco> krababbel: its there. I just cant write to it
[10:19] <eyuplu> turk varmi
[10:19] <hashbrowncipher> cincinnatus: Usually .xsession-errors gets big when the same error repeats over and over again.  Can you snip out the error and put in a pastebin for us to see?
[10:19] <jarco> onoez_omg: any rule you are looking for? Its a long output to type in :p
[10:20] <eyuplu> yokmu turk bitane surda
[10:20] <MonkeyDust> jarco  use pastebin for lon outputs
[10:21] <MonkeyDust> !tr| eyuplu
[10:21] <Duality> i don't know if i am at the right place to ask but is it possible to mask name.site.com to something like site.com ?
[10:21] <onoez_omg> jarco, i was thinking that root fs is mounted into a different place or mounted as read-only or smth like that, but i'm in doubt due to lack of experience of work in rescue mode hah
[10:21] <action09> acicula no it's a brand new mini pc (Giada n20) , windoz installed flawlessly so it's not a hard drive pb.
[10:21] <jarco> MonkeyDust: use pastebin from rescue mode while trying to fix dns? ...
[10:21] <bashsho> any suggest for html design channel?
[10:21] <zvacet> jozefk: I don't think so,because lubuntu-desktop is meta package witch will pull other packages you can also read http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde
[10:21] <the-erm> Whoever had the resolv.conf issue in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf has a line:"prepend domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>;"  will make resolv.conf changes permanent.
[10:22] <MonkeyDust> jarco  i missed that part
[10:22] <acicula> action09: the error usually means a hardware error. did you move the case in between installs by any chance?
[10:22] <jarco> onoez_omg: I mounted /dev/sda1 in rescue mode. Should i try to others?
[10:23] <MonkeyDust> jarco  yes, see if the program pastebinit is available, install and type [your command]| pastebinit, then paste the url here
[10:24] <jarco> MonkeyDust: I cannot run APT I cannot use dns. ...
[10:24] <Duality> if i ever made a pc i'd make it linux compatible :)
[10:24] <MonkeyDust> Duality  works fine here, what's wrong?
[10:25] <jarco> isnt there just a way to install ubuntu in a vesa mode or something. I am sure it used to be in the distro in the past
[10:26] <ror> test?
[10:26] <acid_mark> hi ......how to install wireless drivers for bcm4312 ....i m currently using proprietary drivers
[10:26] <ror> Can anyone read this? I seem to keep disconnecting
[10:26] <MonkeyDust> !bcm| acid_mark start here
[10:27] <Starminn> Is there a way to reinstall all base fonts?
[10:28] <taxman> i use my own font collection instead of ubuntu's
[10:28] <taxman> ubuntu fonts are ugly
[10:28] <the-erm> Personally I like FreeSans
[10:28] <the-erm> But "ubuntu" font isn't my favorite.
[10:28] <Duality> MonkeyDust, i don't get it i just said if i'd ever make a pc myself i will make it asmuch  linux as possible :)
[10:28] <acid_mark> ubottu : bcm4312 is n't listed there
[10:29] <ogra_> taxman, and this is relevant for the ubuntu support channel because ?
[10:29] <DrDittersdorf> Fonts - just copy font folder from windows or any other os to ~/.fonts folder
[10:29] <MonkeyDust> Duality  maybe you want to work at ZaReason, then, they do just that
[10:29] <action09> acicula no no i suppose a kernel parameter to add to boot flawlessly , PIO mode , sata related.. :(
[10:29] <taxman> you need some sharp fonts as you can see on mobile devices
[10:29] <Duality> :)
[10:30] <Starminn> Is there a way to reinstall all base fonts that come with Ubuntu? (I've managed to...make most of my fonts unusable. :) )
[10:30] <domedagen> Something has happened with my nvidia drivers. They are installed yet they're not according to nvidia-settings. I have Additional Drivers(jockey-gtk) installed
[10:30] <domedagen> What can I do?
[10:31] <domedagen> Sorry they are not activated anymore
[10:31] <domedagen> Ill try to activate them again
[10:32] <AndyUbuntu> morning everyone
[10:32] <domedagen> Good afternoon
[10:32] <DrDittersdorf> Is there a way to imigrate shotwell DB from one user to another?
[10:32] <sk1special> @domedagen.make sure you restart too .usually at least half fixes my nvidia problems
[10:33] <AndyUbuntu> im updating to 12.04 from the repo and it seems exceedingly slow. Will this be due to many people updating
[10:33] <DrDittersdorf> Noon
[10:33] <AndyUbuntu> ?
[10:33] <hashbrowncipher> AndyUbuntu: yes.  It's going to take a while to die down
[10:33] <ogra_> AndyUbuntu, yes
[10:34] <ant_> Odd - I can't upgrade to precise: $ lsb_release -c
[10:34] <ant_> Codename:       lucid
[10:34] <ant_> $ do-release-upgrade
[10:34] <ant_> Checking for a new ubuntu release    No new release found
[10:34] <domedagen> sk1special: I may seem like a total retard not figuring this out directly but to my defence they have worked well until yesterday
[10:34] <AndyUbuntu> currently downloading at 15kbs at the most and often goes down to 3000 B/s
[10:34] <ogra_> AndyUbuntu, you could try another mirror
[10:34] <AndyUbuntu> ok thanks
[10:34] <domedagen> sk1special: But now I have to restart. Bye!
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> !paste| AndyUbuntu
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> !paste| ant_ (wrong nick, sorry)
[10:35] <AndyUbuntu> orga_ thank will be a great idea thanks
[10:35] <ant_> MonkeyDust, sure - didn't think 4 lines was that bad
[10:35] <zvacet> ant_: in synaptic check that you can upgrade from lts to lts not normal releases and of course before upgrade sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:36] <AndyUbuntu> think is i wait on this server the next release would be ready to download  :p
[10:37] <DrDittersdorf> What to choose- 32 or 64?
[10:37] <cYmen> haha..I'm currently upgrading to 12.04 and there is a window prompting me to press enter in the command line output of the upgrade window but I can't seem to actually press anything...what do I do? :D
[10:37] <bobo123> the gnome panels show on fullscreen on ubuntu 12.04, any sollution?
[10:38] <MonkeyDust> DrDittersdorf  if your hardware is 64bit capable, you can use 64bit
[10:38] <cYmen> oh..nvm I can send input...must have misclicked earlier
[10:38] <robgraves> do you have a 32 or 64 bit processor? also 4gb of ram or more you want 64 bit
[10:38] <zvacet> DrDittersdorf: depends of your comp and processor
[10:38] <hroi> how can I find out which version of libfreetype I have under /usr/lib?
[10:38] <DrDittersdorf> I think the 64bit is just great and worka fine
[10:38] <hulaka> I try to install newest Xubuntu. I made install USB with USB Universal Installer. I rebooted, went to Boot Menu when I got options : USB - FDD, USB - HDD, USB - Floppy, USB - CD-Rom. I tried each one - and nothing happens, it doesn't boot from USB :/ What to do
[10:39] <the-erm> Does anyone know if ubuntu-server has been updated as well?  I've been waiting for my LTS server to say "hey new release" alas ... nothing.
[10:39] <sk1special> so i guess lame question. if i have more than 4gbs of ram. will it tell me that i do on a 32 bit system. or will it only be capable of showing 4gb and i have to look at the ram itself to know
[10:39] <wer0ckz> ubuntu 12 does really drains laptop's baterry
[10:39] <wer0ckz> why is that
[10:39] <DrDittersdorf> I have it all. Im asking in general
[10:39] <wer0ckz>  got ubuntu 12
[10:39] <zvacet> the-erm: is your server up-to-date
[10:39] <Anomie21> Is there a way to update to 12.04 from 11.10 without downloading/creating a cd and all that nonsense?
[10:40] <acicula> action09: pio mode? you should not need that if you are using sata
[10:40] <robgraves> im not sure if it doesnt recognize beyond 4gb of ram or if it just uses up to 4 gb of ram on 32 bit
[10:40] <MonkeyDust> Anomie21  in a terminal, type sudo do-release-update
[10:40] <sk1special>  @ anomie21    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:40] <r4y> Any graphics card related channels?
[10:40] <zvacet> Anomie21: from synaptic or update manager
[10:40] <ant_> robgraves, you can use more than 4GB or ram on 32bit if a PAE kernel is installed
[10:40] <the-erm> zvacet: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade # doesn't install anything
[10:40] <sk1special> (thats what the site says anyway)
[10:40] <acicula> robgraves: your system can use more then 4GB of ram if its 32bit, the 4GB limit is specific to processes themselves
[10:41] <robgraves> yeah thats true ant_, i forgot
[10:41] <MonkeyDust> Anomie21 correction:  in a terminal, type sudo do-release-upgrade
[10:41] <DrDittersdorf> I had a machine with 8gb and 32bit and it qorked great
[10:41] <Anomie21> Thanks
[10:41] <ant_> robgraves, as acicula says, some hardware can't do that though
[10:41] <Starminn> Is there a way to reinstall all base fonts that come with Ubuntu? (I've managed to...make most of my fonts unusable. :) )
[10:41] <robgraves> i have 64 bit so its irrelevant
[10:41] <Jen> How did you manage that, Starminn ?
[10:41] <sk1special> so will it recognize it then?
[10:42] <DrDittersdorf> The main reason for 64 is when one need to.render a video
[10:42] <Starminn> Jen: I copied my /usr/share/fonts folder from Ubuntu 11.10, and Merged it with Ubuntu 12.04. Apparently that's a no-no.
[10:42] <Domedagen> I'm back from activating the nvidia drivers. Now the system is all slow and laggy again. Can I disable the drivers from the terminal?
[10:42] <zvacet> the-erm: good then your system is updated but I don't know why you don't get message about new release
[10:42] <the-erm> zvacet: maybe I need to reboot that machine, and it'll install a new kernal or something.
[10:43] <DrDittersdorf> Starminn just copy it to .fonts
[10:43] <alusion> Ubuntu 12.04 LTS is out??
[10:43] <sk1special> @ domedagen.. i know you can disable them from additional drivers. just click deactivate //restart
[10:43] <alusion> Is it stable enough to upgrade?  O_O
[10:43] <the-erm> alusion: yes LTS is out.
[10:44] <cute_bettong> has anyone here gotten 12.04 to run right on a samsung chronos series 7?  with ATI switchible graphics?
[10:44] <robgraves> yes LTS is kickin
[10:44] <alusion> Ahahah i love that
[10:44] <acicula> !hybrid
[10:44] <Domedagen> sk1special: Will try. This will take a couple of minutes though. Did you hear about Valve btw?
[10:44] <Timmy> is there any socks to http application?
[10:45] <morning> ikonia: I´m up and running again. Many thanks for your help!
[10:45] <mraxilus> I upgraded to 12.04 now all of the fonts in my application windows are white so I can't even read anything... any help?
[10:45] <action09> acicula hmm ok i'm trying to install specifying acpi=off noapic and such thing like that. maybe try to disable some parameters in bios too...
[10:45] <zvacet> the-erm:  you can try that I saw now server is released too
[10:45] <m_kobernyk> hi all! I try to install ubuntu 12.04 desktop from live-CD, and after click on "Try without insalling" or "Install now" my display didn't answer to me. I work on Acer 5336. What can cause it?
[10:46] <sk1special> Valve?
[10:47] <decko> Guys, i've finished my precise instalation and i'm trying to run gnome3 without success
[10:47] <zvacet> the-erm: did you tried sudo aptitude install update-manager-core  sudo do-release-upgrade
[10:47] <n1> just a short qauestion
[10:47] <decko> It even apear on lightdm session menu
[10:48] <the-erm> zvacet: I'm trying it now.
[10:48] <zvacet> decko:  try with sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
[10:48] <r4y> Ya, Valve?, LOL, what the
[10:48] <decko> zvacet already did a aptitude reinstall gnome-session
[10:49] <uBUxUBu> hmm compiz will not open in 12,04 64 bit,,,hmmm
[10:49] <sk1special> saw someone it wasnt supposed to open since 11.10 or 10.11 or something?
[10:49] <zvacet> decko:  I think you need gnome-shell package to run gnome3 naybe someone knows better
[10:49] <sk1special> saw somewhere someone said*
[10:50] <decko> zvacet: Sorry man, you're right
[10:50] <uBUxUBu> it says its installed but i cannot access it
[10:50] <zvacet> decko: np  :)
[10:50] <decko> =]
[10:50] <sk1special> yeah i was trying to start a cube and layer the matrix gl screensaver on it as a desktop..
[10:50] <decko> thnk guys!

[11:06] <WinCamXP-Phone> so, wth is going on?
[11:06] <Gotestra> Ubuntu updated properly.
[11:06] <qEssence> WinCamXP-Phone: My appologies, i cannot help you with that.
[11:06] <munim> has anyone here figured out how to get subversion 1.7.2 on ubuntu 12.04?
[11:06] <WinCamXP-Phone> now it's just a black screen ;.;
[11:06] <munim> the PPAs are all for older versions of ubuntu
[11:06] <Anomie21> 'Installing the upgrade can take several hours' ?
[11:06] <qEssence> WinCamXP-Phone: are you over SSH or in front of the terminal_
[11:06] <Anomie21> Is that a realistic time?
[11:07] <Anomie21> Installing from CD only took about 20min
[11:07] <MonkeyDust>  Anomie21 yes, about 90 minutes her
[11:07] <MonkeyDust> here*
[11:07] <pndemc_> Anomie21, yes
[11:07] <WinCamXP-Phone> the pc's off and i can't turn it on right now
[11:07] <zvacet> Anomie21: servers are overloaded I think  :)
[11:07] <munim> anyone? subversion 1.7+ on ubuntu 12.04?
[11:07] <ogra_> Anomie21, depends on your internet connection and how many millions of people hit the archive server
[11:07] <qEssence> WinCamXP-Phone:  No messages at all are being shown?
[11:07] <Anomie21> zvacet: Why would that affect installation time?
[11:07] <WinCamXP-Phone> just a black screen
[11:07] <Guest82066> god rest ye merry gentlefolk
[11:08] <pndemc_> when I downloaded yesterday it took 3 hours to download
[11:08] <Anomie21> No I mean after it's downloaded, presumably you can still use your PC whilst it's downloading?
[11:08] <pndemc_> and installing, yes
[11:08] <zvacet> Anomie21: I didn't see you are talking of installation sorry I don't know why
[11:08] <qEssence> WinCamXP-Phone:  Have you tryed the Control +F1/12 functions?
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> Anomie21  yes, it's how i did it
[11:08] <WinCamXP-Phone> no...what would that do if it worked?
[11:09] <curiousx> aloha all
[11:09] <qEssence> WinCamXP-Phone: It can be used to open a Terminal, outside the x enviorment.
[11:09] <WinCamXP-Phone> ah
[11:10] <newwbi> hello,
[11:10] <WinCamXP-Phone> well, i can't get to themachine until roughly 9hrs from now
[11:10] <Flywater> linux kernel of ubuntu 12.04 update
[11:11] <Flywater> from 3.2.0-23 to 3.2.0-24
[11:11] <Anomie21> So how long will my comp be out of service? (it's print day here but I'm excited to try the new release :P)
[11:11] <ajf> do I install FLRX, FGLRX post-release updates, or both?
[11:11] <newwbi> i just upgraded from 10.04 to the 12.04, and i can't find the option to change the fonts, where can i find this?
[11:11] <ogra_> newwbi, fontsize you mean ?
[11:11] <Flywater> you can't find it
[11:12] <ogra_> i think gnome moved that into the accessibility panel
[11:12] <newwbi> ogra_:  yes,
[11:12] <zvacet> munim: see https://launchpad.net/~dominik-stadler/+archive/subversion-1.7
[11:12] <ajf> anyone know?
[11:12] <ajf> do I install FGLRX then updates? or just updates?
[11:12] <ajf> it's confusing
[11:13] <curiousx> newwbi: maybe click on top right botton and then "System Setting" finaly "Fonts"
[11:13] <newwbi> i can't? seriously?
[11:13] <silv3r_m00n> what version of php is there in ubuntu 12.04 ?
[11:13] <Flywater> ajf : you can download it from AMD or Nvida and install it yourself
[11:13] <iceroot> !info php5
[11:14] <wawrek> Hi, I cannot install pygraphviz (a python graphviz library) on ubuntu. the error log is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/949512/
[11:14] <silv3r_m00n> ok
[11:14] <ogra_> newwbi, as i said, go to the accessibility settings
[11:14] <ajf> Flywater: SYeah but from the restricted drivers box, which should I do?
[11:14] <ajf> *what
[11:14] <newwbi> ogra_: there are only the option for small, normal, large, over there, i wanted to change the font face on the terminal as well,
[11:15] <ogra_> newwbi, that you do in the terminal settings
[11:15] <newwbi> ogra_: so, there is no longer any easy way to change the system fonts? or at least any config file that i can edit?
[11:16] <murlidhar> am not able to create a usb live cd from usb-imagewriter .... it says done but am not able to boot it using usb disk.

[11:16] <h31> Hi all. How to make Win key work as a Super key in 12.04?
[11:16] <Flywater> ajf : you can choose one
[11:16] <ajf> ok
[11:16] <ajf> brb :)
[11:16] <ogra_> newwbi, well, gnome decided to drop it all ... you can probably change it by installing dconf-tools and using dconf-editor somehow
[11:16] <newwbi> i have been putting off updating coz of the bad things i heard about unity, but i didn't think that i can't even change the font anymore... -_-
[11:16] <Flywater> i download from AMD and install it in termminal
[11:17] <ogra_> that has nothing to do with unity
[11:17] <h31> murlidhar: Do you changed a "Boot device" option in BIOS?
[11:17] <Flywater> ajf : i download from AMD and install it in termminal
[11:17] <newwbi> ogra_: well, i think i get it, i thought they moved it somewhere i can't find, but if they actually removed the option, then i think i can just look around for more information, thanks anyway,
[11:17] <murlidhar> h31: yes . usb is first priority device.. i have installed ubuntu using the same way
[11:17] <the-erm> newwbi: I think myunity let's you change the font, but I don't know for sure, because I'm running xfce4 atm.
[11:17] <|NSP|> Hey, does anyone have a problem with hibernate in 11 m?
[11:18] <h31> murlidhar: try another tool. For example unetbootin or dd.

[11:18] <murlidhar> h31: trying to boot finnix from my usb device.
[11:18] <ogra_> newwbi, unity just uses gnome3 in the backend for most things, its not unitys fault if the gnome devs drop options
[11:18] <Shayan> i need to install this how do i do it
[11:18] <Shayan> http://www.ptcl.com.pk/uploads/linux%20SW.zip

[11:25] <sonne> cheers
[11:25] <erezson> Hi, just upgraded my ubuntu to 12.04 and I would like to remove completely  KDE. I have double system monitor etc. Can someone may help me please?
[11:26] <minimec> delfick: you mean they become unusable, or they just go into 'power save' mode?
[11:26] <delfick> minimec: they become unusable.  I need to get dnsmasq working because 12.04 killed it. I read that network manager was supposed to be causing problems but i'm on ubuntu-server and there's no network manager, yet dnsmasq is still borked.
[11:27] <Tm_T> ryannathans: please watch your language
[11:27] <sk1special> delfick @ you try just turning the lock off under system settings . brightness and lock?
[11:27] <minimec> delfick: Still. Could you try to disable all power save stuff in the 'System Settings' 'Power'?
[11:27] <delfick> mmkay, I'll try that
[11:28] <zvacet> erezson: do you use kubuntu and want to switch to ubuntu
[11:28] <tomreyn> hi, my dist-upgrade from oneiric to precise failed, X crashed during the package upgrade phase (i.e. after downloading all the upgraded packages). i'm now on a terminal, how can i proceed witht he upgrade?
[11:29] <krababbel> Is there no shut down button in gnome shell? I have to log out to shut down?
[11:29] <Xunil> you can do sudo shutdown -h now in gnome-terminal (that's how I often do that if "normal" shutdown doesn't work)
[11:30] <ryannathans> dnsmasq is running with the SAME config BEFORE 12.04. It will not return DNS queries. ubuntu-server.
[11:30] <zvacet> tomreyn:  try with sudo dpkg --configure -a  sudo apt-get -f install
[11:30] <erezson> @zvacel - I have the kde plasma workspace in the login window. then I choose gnome classic but I see many apps doubled. like system monitor etc
[11:30] <Xunil> and try pressing CTRL or ALT or SHIFT - I think then the menu items might change, krababbel
[11:30] <ogra_> ryannathans, try #ubuntu-server perhaps ?
[11:30] <jiltdil> i nunetbootin what to choose for ubuntu 12.04 to make it live on distribution section  there is no option for 12.04
[11:30] <ryannathans> ogra_: thankyou
[11:30] <krababbel> Xunil, alt did it, thanks
[11:31] <tomreyn> zvacet: i remember from last time this happened i should also do something along the lines of: sudo do-release-upgrade, possibly passing additional options?
[11:31] <jiltdil> There only option till 11.04 to mak elive
[11:31] <sk1special> jilt are you on windows now?
[11:31] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  do you have the 12.04 iso?
[11:31] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust, Yes
[11:32] <Chuzzi> I was on 11.10 and upgraded to 12.04, now my dnsmasq isn't forwarding DNS anymore. DHCP appears to be working though.
[11:32] <zvacet> erezson: see if http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome help
[11:32] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  are you unable to select the iso in unetbootin?
[11:32] <tomreyn> zvacet: i /think/ this step is after the dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:32] <curiousx> tomreyn: are you using ATI's priopretary drivers?
[11:32] <smallfoot-> thanks ubuntu for 12.04 release, its awesome!!!
[11:32] <smallfoot-> why do all windows open in the top-left corner now?
[11:32] <connelly> any idea why all (except for Ubuntu applications) widgets look horrible after an upgrade?
[11:32] <tomreyn> curiousx: no, why are you asking?
[11:32] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust,  no in distrbution  the option for making 12.04 is not showing only ther is available till 11.04
[11:33] <rfictus> any quick terminal code to find out gnoke-settings-daemon version number ??
[11:33] <rfictus> gnoke=gnome
[11:33] <JonathanEllis> I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 on a Dell Latitude C61 laptop with 1GB RAM and 60GB hard disk. Processor is a 32 bit intel 586 compatible I believe running at between 1 and 1.5 GHz. After trying to install from the live CD (picking the "Install option") the installer stopped with this message "Installer failed. The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will  now be run so that you may investigate the pro
[11:33] <erezson> zvacel: I tried that but I still see many KDE apps
[11:33] <curiousx> becouse thats is one of the reason to broke X after upgrading
[11:33] <raven> how to do ocr from webcam images?
[11:33] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  yes, the distro may be too recent, try downloading the iso, it's faster and easier
[11:33] <zvacet> tomreyn: try it but first you have to run sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get -f install because you downloaded and start to install and something is broken now
[11:34] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust, Which option to choose , should i choose 11.04 for 12.04 to mak elive
[11:34] <smallfoot-> jiltdil, you cant upgrade from 10.04 or 10.10 to 12.04 directly, i tihnk you must do first to 11.04 then 12.04
[11:34] <ryannathans> ubuntu-server isn't talking to me.
[11:34] <metallico> guys, do you know how to reset the settings of gphpedit?
[11:34] <tomreyn> curiousx: oh okay, not in my case, here the issue was X crashing after i responded to an on-screen prompt by monkeysphere-validation-agent
[11:34] <ryannathans> metallico: dpkg-reconfigure <name>
[11:34] <tomreyn> zvacet: i understand. thanks.
[11:34] <connelly> okay so it looks like the issue is with GTK+ applications - all the widgets suddenly look old and boxy - any ideas?
[11:34] <ogra_> ryannathans, patience, the devs in there are exhausted and might get up late today
[11:34] <ogra_> ;)
[11:34] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  not sure what you mean, download the 12.04 iso and use that to create the live usb stick
[11:35] <Morph> i love ubuntu
[11:35] <delfick> minimec: sk1special: restarted and disabled those settings. Monitors still turn themselves off
[11:35] <rfictus> any quick terminal code to find out my gnome-settings-daemon version number ??
[11:35] <metallico> ryannathans, didnt work
[11:35] <ogra_> after all there was a release yesterday
[11:35] <ryannathans> metallico: did you run as sudo and put the name of application in <name>
[11:35] <metallico> yes
[11:35] <ThePendulum> Could I set-up Ubuntu so I receive mail notifications, yet use the online Gmail interface to read them (and the notification panel directing me there, and keeping Thunderbird basically closed)?
[11:35] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust,  i want to know how to make it live , what to select in distribution section in unetbootin
[11:35] <ryannathans> ogra_: Sigh. I have no internet on this network till then.
[11:35] <ThePendulum> Basically, I just need a decent application that just shows e-mail notifications in Ubuntu
[11:35] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  the iso *is* live, has nothing to do with unetbootin
[11:36] <sk1special> are you using nvidia? im having all kindve issues with my dual monitors.. id check in the control panel for it if you are and see what you can see
[11:36] <curiousx> sorry im not able to help ya =(
[11:36] <raven> how to do ocr from webcam images?
[11:36] <auronandace> is there a specific command to refresh the icons on the unity bar? (12.04)
[11:36] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust, ok  so direct putting it into pendrive  boots?
[11:36] <ThePendulum> sk1special: What issues do you have? I have succesfully set-up dual screens in Ubuntu so far
[11:36] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  yes, by using unetbootin
[11:37] <the-erm> grandr & xrandr are good programs for setting up dual screens.
[11:37] <minimec> delfick: That is quiet strange. Before they turn off, do you have any problems with graphical output. Is the quality ok. I guess you have a dual screen setup. Would the same problem appear with one monitor plugged only?
[11:37] <sk1special> ah. atm with my current set up. they both work fine. but i can Not drag and drop windows between desktops and all my window menus look like theyre from win 98
[11:37] <zvacet> tomreyn:  ok then
[11:37] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust, Oh man from that time i am asking this to you , please see the unetbootin, in distruibution section i choosed ubuntu and then  on right side what to choose as there is no opption for 12.04 only max 11.04
[11:38] <tomreyn> rfictus: dpkg-query -W -f '${Version}\n' gnome-settings-daemon
[11:38] <delfick> minimec: no graphical problems, three monitors. I'm installing fglrx now. Hopefully that helps
[11:38] <sk1special> depnding on how i set them up. that will happen ..or  i can fix the menu look..but then only one monitor cuts on..or i can have one monitor on and one as a solid grey screen
[11:38] <ThePendulum> sk1special: Can you move your cursor to the 2nd screen?
[11:38] <sk1special> yeah the second screen works fine..
[11:38] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  you're looking in the wrong place, below, you can select an iso
[11:38] <sk1special> and 3d is working fine..
[11:38] <jiltdil> MonkeyDust,  thanks
[11:39] <minimec> delfick: That might help. You will have to use the ATI/AMD control software to do the monitor setup.
[11:39] <MonkeyDust> jiltdil  an iso you downloaded prior to opening unetbootin
[11:39] <sk1special> i just cant drag and drop between workstations. sorrry had to remeber what they were called here
[11:39] <ThePendulum> sk1special: I usually use xrandr to position the display outputs correctly
[11:39] <n1> hi again. using ubuntu in vmware and have WICD network manager, but doesn-t list available networks near me_
[11:39] <metallico> do you know what is the default installation dir for phpedit?
[11:39] <n1> is it because of vmware
[11:39] <sk1special> i get a error message saying RANDR missing on display 0
[11:39] <sk1special> when i do things in the terminal
[11:39] <drvanon_> When i lock my screen and start it up again it opens the external sdcard, how can i stop that? it makes the startup slower
[11:40] <rfictus> thanks tomreyn!
[11:40] <ThePendulum> sk1special: And you typed 'xrandr', correct? not 'randr'?
[11:40] <auronandace> is there a specific command to refresh the icons on the unity bar? (12.04)
[11:40] <sk1special> i havent typed anything lol it just pops up when i open windows. exactly what should i type?
[11:41] <the-erm> drvanon_: sounds like you have your bios set to boot from the sd card, then the hd.
[11:41] <zoite> I'm having an issue with installing 12.04. On bootup I get 'unknown keyword in configuration file'
[11:41] <drvanon_> the-erm, boot in starting up my pc?
[11:41] <ThePendulum> sk1special: With dual screens, I type something like "xrandr --output DFP3 --left-of DFP4", but you have to replace DFP# with your monitor names
[11:42] <ThePendulum> sk1special: And for three screens, you probably have to do that command twice, replace the first monitor with the second one, and the second monitor with the  third one
[11:42] <sk1special> the positoning is fine tho.. i can use them..and i can drag and drop from left screen to right. i just cant drag and drop between individual workstations
[11:42] <pz> HEY GHOST
[11:42] <pz> MY UBUNUTU GOES STRIAGHT TO BOOT UP
[11:42] <the-erm> drvanon_: yup. If you hibernate, you're actually shutting down your machine, and telling it to load from your swap.
[11:42] <pz> cans omeone ohelp
[11:42] <pz> it wont boot up at all
[11:43] <drvanon_> the-erm, how can i stop that?
[11:43] <sk1special> i have two. ones 1440x900 75mhz smaller one is 1024x720 60mhz

[11:50] <drvanon_> the-erm, i am a little bit afraid it willl get damaged
[11:51] <the-erm> drvanon_: it still shouldn't matter, set your boot order in the bios to have your hd first.
[11:51] <auronandace> n1: how would it? you aren't emulating a wireless connection
[11:51] <sk1special> should i select absolute then use the mouse to postion or left of/right of option?

[12:01] <ryannathans> For some reason my dnsmasq install is broken in 12.04... My whole network depends on this server
[12:02] <domedagen> How can I solve this?
[12:02] <raven> ryannathans i could show you what i mean. i try to capture images from a electrical meter to log it into statistics but for example it seems that ocr only works for chars up to any size
[12:03] <ryanyeah> i'm about to switch to ubuntu as my primary OS. should i go 10.04 or 12.04? i just really hate the unity toolbar thing in 12.04.. unless its possible to disable it
[12:04] <llutz> !nounity | ryanyeah
[12:04] <sk1special> i disabled the xcinema thing.
[12:04] <sk1special> and restarted..

[12:13] <gaelfx> are there any themes that are actually made for unity? or do I have to install compiz stuff to get new themes?
[12:13] <oal> Lesson learnt: Don't upgrade to a new Ubuntu release the first few days. Argh! Unity crashes once I open a wine app, dual screen support is far worse than 7.xx and everything feels sluggish. I thought LTS were supposed to be stabler than usual!
[12:13] <airtonix> oal: always wait 6mths
[12:14] <oal> airtonix: yeah, this has got to be the worst experience I've had with ubuntu since 6.10
[12:14] <airtonix> oal: subjective
[12:15] <ryannathans> oal: join the club!
[12:15] <ryannathans> oal: no working DNS. Woo!
[12:15] <Zx432> The side bar won't go away.
[12:15] <Zx432> Is it a bug?
[12:15] <oal> Zx432: same here
[12:16] <oal> Zx432: you can change its behavior with "myunity" I think it's called
[12:16] <oal> sudo apt-get install myunity
[12:16] <Pitel> is there some indicator which will show cpu/ram/network usage?
[12:16] <ryannathans> Pitel: top or htop
[12:16] <danielsp> System load indicator from SC
[12:17] <mathews> gaelfx, see this http://www.noobslab.com/2011/11/themes-collection-for-ubuntu-1110-unity.html
[12:18] <gaelfx> mathews: saw it, but it appears that many of those need compiz manager and whatnot installed
[12:18] <ryannathans> How does one get dnsmasq working on 12.04?
[12:19] <ryannathans> nice job floodbot. Random status changing.
[12:19] <Nakou> Guys guys guys, i'm in trouble. I do an upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 and my /var/www folder was lost.
[12:19] <gaelfx> I would have expected there to be more themes available easily from the repos, so you could just install them from software center, but alas
[12:20] <sk1special> stupid floodbot authenticateing me
[12:20] <^Mike> ryannathans: what does "lost" mean? Was that directory a separate partition?
[12:20] <ikonia> sk1special: errr, no it's not authenticating you
[12:20]  * s1m unable to login to the box within tty1!
[12:20] <smallfoot-> try tty2
[12:20] <gvandeweyer> I know the dist-upgrade is not offered to 10.04 lts users untill 12.04.1, but would it still be possible to upgrade a running 10.04 lts server to 12.04, and would this be recommended?
[12:20] <ryannathans> ^Mike: you mean Nakou
[12:20] <sk1special> * this is to make sure youre not a spambot please type oe*
[12:20] <sk1special> one*
[12:21] <^Mike> ryannathans: Yes, sorry. Nakou, what does "lost" mean, and was /var/www a separate partition?
[12:21] <rodhash> Hello guys...
[12:21] <sk1special> but anyways.  i cut off the xinerma ..and now i can drag and drop between workstations. and the menu borders look normal..but my second screen just shows as a pure white blank screen
[12:21] <rodhash> I'm facing little issue with my compiz, when I rotate the cube the screen flashes with the previous window...
[12:21] <rodhash> using desktop wall it doesn't happen
[12:21] <rodhash> any idea?
[12:21] <Nakou> Not, on the same partition... It is in the /var/www on the partition, and he totaly deseaper
[12:22] <sk1special> the mouse goes over to it.. and i can click to like..make a hightlight box. but the cursor is a x and i cant do anything else
[12:22] <Nakou> Shame on me to dont have made separate partition or backup
[12:22] <gaelfx> Nakou: that's because when you installed 12.04, it rewrote everything on your / partition
[12:22] <Nakou> gaelfx : i dont install /, i just do an upgrade
[12:23] <sk1special> gaelfx . do you remeber what you had me do before to fix it ?
[12:23] <rodhash> Any suggestion? about compiz issue?
[12:23] <gaelfx> sk1special: you mean the nvidia problem?
[12:23] <s1m> , I can't log in on any of the ttys. When I press "control+alt+Fx", put my username and password, and always prints "login incorrect".
[12:23] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[12:23] <sk1special> yeah.. i did a fresh install of the new vs so now i have to do it again
[12:24] <karlyuanjian> what's wrong?
[12:24] <gaelfx> sk1special: haha, well, it should be easier this time around, no?
[12:24] <mathews> ubottu said it
[12:24] <sk1special> same deal. one monitor is blank white with xinerma off. with it on i cant drag and drop between workstations and the windows look like win 98,,
[12:24] <sk1special> supposedly.. i did everything i remember doing before ( mainly messing around in the nvidia panel ) but i cant get it to work
[12:25] <oal> Does the gnome shell work better with Nvidia? Unity is basically unusable on my pc now
[12:25] <gaelfx> sk1special: which nvidia driver did you use, recommended or post release update?
[12:25] <Multiply> How do I get a service to start, AFTER the NFS mounts have been mounted?

[12:26] <Multiply> ryannathans: I mean, it's an existing service, but I moved it's config files to a nfs drive.

[12:33] <polkilo> hello
[12:33] <gaelfx> LjL: ftfy
[12:33] <gaelfx> no prob
[12:33] <Multiply> ryannathans: Actually $remote_fs did the trick. I didn't add this myself tho, so I'm curious as to why it failed earlier. Hmm.
[12:33] <polkilo> can help me&
[12:33] <polkilo> ?
[12:33] <ryannathans> Multiply: you wouldn't have any idea why dnsmasq is screwed in 12.04 would you ?
[12:34] <samster34> ok, trying again...I have this prebuilt intel system, and every linux distro I've tried just flat out refuses to work. I've had to resort to install on a different computer (similar hardware), move the drive to the other computer, but that doesn't work either
[12:34] <s1m> polkilo: state your issue.
[12:34] <Multiply> ryannathans: No idea, sorry. :P
[12:34] <medfly> how can I disable my laptop track pad completely
[12:34] <ryannathans> poo. I have no DNS on my whole network.
[12:35] <JohnnyricoMC> Is gb.archive.ubuntu.com slow for anyone else? I'm doing a netinstall and it's taking way longer than usual :s
[12:35] <apter> mathews: This does not help me: tried it…:(
[12:35] <Multiply> ryannathans: All my servers run on an external gateway. I just get to assign global, or local IPs, directly on the servers.
[12:35] <JohnnyricoMC> as in hours instead of only 15-something minutes :s
[12:35] <mathews> medfly, select the "mouse" from preference menu and do it
[12:35] <mik__> hi scooby
[12:36] <spartan2276> thanks guys, I think that worked
[12:36] <medfly> mathews: I don't see anything to disable it
[12:36] <samster34> if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...
[12:37] <mathews> apter, u know I asked u about it,means I dont know about it,but gave u a thread thinking would help u.
[12:37] <NurseDad> anyone else have trouble with Gwibber not showing FB comments?
[12:37] <Posglodito> hello
[12:37] <apter> mathews: okey, sorry
[12:37] <gaelfx> NurseDad: I do, but not for the same reason
[12:38] <Lurkin_Lobster> i have 11.10 but i want to completely start over and reinstall 12.04
[12:38] <mik__> hi scooby do
[12:38] <testBOT> hi, hows it going
[12:38] <NurseDad> gaelfx:?
[12:38] <Lurkin_Lobster> can i just throw the boot cd in and do that?
[12:38] <gaelfx> NurseDad: the great firewall
[12:38] <Lurkin_Lobster> or am i in for a world of hurt if i do
[12:38] <Posglodito> How is that when I try to download Ubuntu 12.04, it recommends me to download the 32 bit version if my system is 64 bits
[12:38] <mathews> medfly, dont u have any special key for it on keyboard?
[12:39] <Pici> Posglodito: Because the website doesn't know what architecture you're running.
[12:39] <smallfoot-> Posglodito, cuz officially 32-bit is recommended, and doesnt do clever javascript check, but get 64-bit version cuz its faster
[12:39] <samster34> if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...
[12:39] <CountZ> Posglodito: It is theoretically faster to run a 32bit OS
[12:39] <CountZ> because there's less data to move around
[12:39] <medfly> mathews: I do.
[12:39] <medfly> mathews: it doesn't work.
[12:39] <mathews> Posglodito, when u read it, try to complete the story
[12:39] <CountZ> 64 bit is automatically double the size of memory pointers
[12:40] <hnsz> smallfoot-: I don't think it's recommended anymore
[12:40] <irendal> Hello, how can I know if I installed ubuntu in 32 or 64 bits?
[12:40] <Posglodito> CountZ, you think that the 32 bit OS is faster ???
[12:40] <gaelfx> 64-bit, for those who don't know, goes all the way to 11
[12:40] <samster34> irendal: Settings -> System Details
[12:40] <sk1special> okay now  everything works :] again.. which is awesome. but now this xwinwrap -ov -fs -- /usr/lib/xscreensaver/glmatrix -root -window-id WID wont work
[12:40] <CountZ> Posglodito: in theory yes
[12:40] <polkilo> can i run Nvidia Optimus on this 12.04 without Bumblbee?
[12:40] <gaelfx> irendal: lsb_release -a
[12:40] <smallfoot-> irendal, uname -a
[12:41] <smallfoot-> 64-bit version is slightly faster in most cases under most type of operations
[12:41] <mathews> medfly, http://askubuntu.com/search?q=disabling+touchpad+
[12:41] <irendal> gaelfx, that just tells me "ubuntu 11.10"
[12:41] <sk1special> supposed to run the matrix screensaver in the desktop as a background..was working before but not now
[12:41] <gaelfx> irendal: sorry, my bad :P uname -a is the one
[12:41] <Mauhdeeb> Anyone do a fresh install 12.04 on a second disk and after the installation finishes and you restart you get the > grub rescue? I've tried installing to a second hard drive now three times and get that every time
[12:41] <irendal> i686 means 32 bits?
[12:41] <Posglodito> CountZ, but it's supposed that a SO that moves chunks of 64 bits at once is faster that one that only moves chunks of half the size, isn't so?
[12:41] <smallfoot-> irendal, yes
[12:41] <CountZ> irendal: yes
[12:41] <gaelfx> irendal: yeah, AMD64 would be 64 bit
[12:42] <CountZ> Posglodito: it's not the chunk sizes, it is the sizes of pointers, they take double the amount of memory
[12:42] <smallfoot-> 64-bit is the future
[12:42] <hnsz> CountZ: Big deal
[12:42] <irendal> ok, thanks
[12:42] <medfly> jesus christ, I have a fucking button, why can't I modify it so it works properly on this piece of shit
[12:42] <medfly> or config x for all I care
[12:42] <smallfoot-> go away from 32-bit, stay away from 32-bit
[12:42] <mathews> a 32bit works in both system but it never uses RAM up to 3Gb
[12:42] <samster34> if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...this prebuilt box is otherwise useless to me, what could be wrong with it to keep any linux from working? it has a Q8300 LGA 775, an nforce chipset, a 980
[12:42] <mathews> a 32bit works in both system but it never uses RAM above 3Gb
[12:43] <smallfoot-> maybe it does if you use PAE
[12:43] <CountZ> it will use all the ram you have, just not more than 3.3gb at a time
[12:43] <sysRPL> hey uhm ... why doesn't 12.4 ship with a more recent version of gimp in it's repository?
[12:43] <CountZ> (per application)
[12:43] <smallfoot-> sysRPL, it ships with latest stable GIMP
[12:43] <irendal> i wonder if i should install a new 12.04, or stay with my 11.10... i'm a bit worried i'd have trouble making it work, like I had last time :(
[12:43] <smallfoot-> sysRPL, 2.8 is just release candidate
[12:43] <mathews> sysRPL, the new version of gimp is not stable so far
[12:43] <medfly> I'm just going to disable the mouse on the X config instead of installing useless graphics things
[12:43] <sysRPL> i just installed gimp in 12.04
[12:43] <sysRPL> and  it doesn't have single window mode as an option
[12:43] <irendal> what is the default kernel in 12.04?
[12:44] <sysRPL> the version is really old
[12:44] <sysRPL> smallfoot-, ?
[12:44] <CountZ> 3.2.0-23
[12:44] <dr_willis> irendal:  install to a flashdrive to test it
[12:44] <smallfoot-> sysRPL, 2.8 will have single window mode, but 2.8 is not release, its just release candidate 1
[12:44] <CountZ> that's the kernel in 12.04
[12:44] <oal> Hurray! None of the issues I had with unity in 12.04 are present in Gnome shell. /me is happy
[12:44] <irendal> dr_willis, that sounds like a good idea
[12:44] <smallfoot-> sysRPL, its not really old, its the latest stable release
[12:44] <CountZ> oal: what issues?
[12:44] <sk1special> okay did the same thing as last time to make it work.
[12:44] <sk1special> thank ya thank ya
[12:44] <irendal> CountZ, ok, i had to install 3.2.1 in 11.10 to make it work, that's why i'm worried :(
[12:45] <sysRPL> smallfoot-, 2.6
[12:45] <Athanasius> The Asus EEE notebook has 3 power states of "low", "high", and "extra-high" power, which can be set by writing 0, 1, and 2 to /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/cpufv, respectively. Are there scripts/programs for unity that allow for easily changing this? (Especially preferable would be to auto-set low power when on battery, and extra-high when on ac power)
[12:45] <Guest60805> I checked for updates without logging into the system at my school from browser first, now all of my package files have been replaced with the login page.  Now I cannot install anything or get any new updates.  can anyone help me?
[12:45] <sysRPL> smallfoot-, it the verion ubuntu installed
 a 32bit works in both system but it never uses RAM up to 3Gb <-- that is true, I have 8 GB so I should install 64bit version, I think. In spite that it (could) be ¿slower?
[12:45] <smallfoot-> sysRPL, 2.6.12
[12:45] <oal> CountZ: random crashes (window borders disappearing, windows jumping around), and the mouse got stuck between my screens. Had to move it very fast to get across to the other screen
[12:45] <CountZ> oal: weird!
[12:45] <samster34> can anyone help me?  if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...this prebuilt box is otherwise useless to me, what could be wrong with it to keep any linux from working? it has a Q8300 LGA 775, an
[12:45] <apter> If i use gps2ip on my iPhone to stream gps coordinates to linux, will this cost me something? in my telefon bill?
[12:46] <Pici> !offtopic
[12:46] <CountZ> Posglodito: go for the 64bit version if your system is capable of it. 32bit is going to die anyway at some point.
[12:46] <ryannathans> mattswe: via PAE x86 32bit can access much more than 3GB ram
[12:46] <oal> CountZ: indeed... But gnome shell works way better
[12:46] <smallfoot-> apter, not if you steam over Wi-Fi
[12:46] <pawan> I want to use alladin etoken on ubuntu 12.04, the token is dependent on HAL and can't find any solution till now
[12:46] <CountZ> I kinda prefer gnome anyway
[12:46] <woozly> Guys, how to move Unity Launcher on 12.04 to bottom?
[12:46] <Athanasius> apter: Uh, it will probably cost you data usage.
[12:46] <smallfoot-> apter, but if you steam over GSM or 3G then probably yes
[12:46] <CountZ> I'm not sure I'm liking unity very much
[12:46] <Posglodito> CountZ, I see, thanks to all
[12:46] <sysRPL> smallfoot-, also, why doesn't ubuntu come with gcc4.7?
[12:46] <CountZ> It's designed to mimic the Mac UI
[12:46] <Mauhdeeb> !grub rescue
[12:46] <smallfoot-> CountZ, me neither, but Unity is 10x better in 12.04 than it was in 10.10 or something
[12:46] <CountZ> which I do like
[12:46] <apter> smallfoot-: so receiving gps coordinates cost nothing? i am going to stream over wifi (ad-hoc)
[12:46] <oal> CountZ: it looks good so far. Unity worked fine in 11.10, so I never gave Gnome a try before now
[12:46] <ryannathans> !dnsmasq
[12:47] <Pici> !msgthebot
[12:47] <pawan> how to you token (digtal signature) on ubuntu
[12:47] <Athanasius> CountZ: Unity works great once you get used to it. When I first tried it I was majorly "wtf is this"
[12:47] <ditban> permission denied on key http://paste.ubuntu.com/949696/ How to unblock?
[12:47] <dr_willis> CountZ:  i dont find it like the mac at all
[12:47] <Pitel> http://mrdoob.github.com/three.js/examples/webgl_materials_texture_filters.html anyone with chrome, 12.04, unity and nvidia gpu, does this work for you?
[12:47] <smallfoot-> oal, since then Unity have been refined and improved
[12:47] <CountZ> Athanasius: I see... I will definitely give it a chance.
[12:47] <smallfoot-> Pitel, depends what graphics device drivers you use
[12:47] <samster34> help  :(  if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...this prebuilt box is otherwise useless to me, what could be wrong with it to keep any linux from working? it has a Q8300 LGA 775, an nforce chip
[12:48] <apter> Athanasius: i stream it over wifi (ad hoc) to my laptop
[12:48] <smallfoot-> Pitel, i think works with proprietary drivers, but not with nouvou open source
[12:48] <CountZ> dr_willis: The menu is always at the top, and there's a doc on the left... and apps are primed for full screen usage. How is that different from the Mac experience? :-)
[12:48] <oal> smallfoot-: I hear they say so, but I had weird bugs happening in 12.04 that I never saw in 11.10
[12:48] <Pitel> smallfoot-: I have priprietary
[12:48] <Pitel> smallfoot-: strange, it works with firefox
[12:48] <sk1special> so weird.. the matrix thing runs fine on all the screens. except for the first workstation on the left ( where i opened the terminal ) the launcher will disappear if i click on the background
[12:48] <CountZ> Even the window controls are on the left like in OS X
[12:48] <smallfoot-> Pitel, check about:gpu in Firefox and Chrome
[12:49] <jarco> its possible in ubuntu to have 2 files with the samen name in ONE folder
[12:49] <smallfoot-> Pitel, start chromium with --ignore-gpu-blacklist
[12:49] <CountZ> jarco: no
[12:49] <Pitel> smallfoot-: already did, there are some "GpuProcessHostUIShim: GPU Process Crashed." at the bottom
[12:49] <smallfoot-> :(
[12:49] <jarco> Well. Its happening here...
[12:49] <Pitel> smallfoot-: I disabled the balcklist using about:flags
[12:49] <n1> hi. any experts in networking via virtual machines?
[12:49] <dr_willis> jarco:  case matters in linux
[12:49] <CountZ> jarco: install midnight commander and rename one of them
[12:49] <Pitel> smallfoot-: the page, it works for you?
[12:50] <CountZ> jarco: files can even have a space at the end of the name and you  just won't see it
[12:50] <samster34> I need some serious help..or a wizard.... if I try to boot (an installed system or a live one), it just freezes on a purple screen, sometimes there's stack/call traces there. if I try to boot with nomodeset, I get an error "stopped waiting for root device, dropping to shell", where my keyboard won't work, so I can't do anything...this prebuilt box is otherwise useless to me, what could be wrong with it to keep any linux from working? it has
[12:50] <dr_willis> jarco:  the files in a ntfs disk or share?
[12:50] <Pitel> smallfoot-: because I;m using chrome dev branch, so maybe thery messed something on their side
[12:50] <jarco> CountZ: you got it. It was the space at the end
[12:50] <jarco> :)
[12:51] <smallfoot-> Pitel, yes, both in firefox and chromium, with opensource nvouea drivers
[12:51] <CountZ> see... :)
[12:51] <choronzon> I just updated to ubuntu 12.04 and before I had this thing I can't remember how to set up where I moved my mouse pointer to the top left edge of the screen and it showed all the windows I had opened. now is gone. anybody know how to get it back?
[12:51] <CountZ> samster34: I struggled with a similar situation yesterday with this laptop i'm using right now. I just couldn't get ubuntu to boot from the USB stick.
[12:51] <smallfoot-> Pitel, im using chromium 18, the one in ubuntu
[12:51] <leo_> Sera
[12:52] <samster34> CountZ: I resorted to installing on a different computer with similar hardware and moving the drive there, and still the same result :/
[12:52] <FreeRangeRadical> Question: Can I safely use Compiz with Unity 2D?
[12:52] <dr_willis> then its not 2d ;)
[12:53] <smallfoot-> FreeRangeRadical, probably, but if your computer can run compiz, why not run unity instead of unity2d?
[12:53] <CountZ> samster34: a dangerous thing I once did in a situation like that, was to switch from UID based partitions in /etc/fstab to physical names
[12:53] <leo_> Tentativo di aggiornare la 11.10 alla 12 finito male
[12:53] <smallfoot-> dr_willis, maybe you can force 2d in login screen
[12:53] <FreeRangeRadical> smallfoot: I wasn't aware that running Compiz was that resource intensive.
[12:53] <spartan2276> oh boy another issue
[12:53] <spartan2276> How can I get my soundcard to work?
[12:53] <samster34> CountZ: how would I do that during setup?
[12:53] <smallfoot-> FreeRangeRadical, its not, i notice no problems on gf8600, 4gb ram, my computer is fast
[12:54] <spartan2276> it wont work and this is all I get http://askubuntu.com/questions/115128/why-is-my-sound-card-not-recognized-by-the-control-panel
[12:54] <samster34> CountZ: and what does it accomplish?
[12:54] <CountZ> samster34: well just fdisk and find out the partition names (sda1, sda2, etc)
[12:54] <spartan2276> I tried following those directions but none of it worked
[12:54] <CountZ> samster34: then replace the GUIDs in /etc/fstab to those names
[12:54] <smallfoot-> FreeRangeRadical, if you dont like compiz, you can use metacity or mutter
[12:54] <FreeRangeRadical> smallfoot: Mine is an old Celeron M, 2.2GHz, 2GB RAM
[12:54] <CountZ> samster34: supposedly on the newer system the GUID's are expected to be different or something of the sort.
[12:55] <ryannathans> dnsmasq no longer returns dns queries after upgrading to 12.04, what do???
[12:55] <dr_willis> !blkid
[12:55] <polkilo> can i run Nvidia Optimus on this 12.04 without Bumblbee?
[12:55] <Posglodito> Could one copy the 12.04 .iso to a pendrive and install from the pendrive?
[12:55] <dr_willis> you can change uids on a fs.
[12:55] <smallfoot-> ryannathans, dnsmasq: failed to create listening socket for port 53: Permission denied
[12:55] <samster34> CountZ: hmm, I see. thanks, I'll give that a try.
[12:55] <smallfoot-> ryannathans, perhaps sudo? idk
[12:55] <irendal> hmm... what package can be missing to provoke a "undefined reference to `pthread_create'" when compiling a program?
[12:55] <ryannathans> smallfoot-: I don't have that problem.
[12:55] <spartan2276> I also ran alsamixer and un-muted everything but still not working
[12:56] <CountZ> samster34: when in grub, are you able to see the drives and partitions if you type 'ls'?
[12:56] <dr_willis> Posglodito: you can image it to usb and boot it
[12:56] <ryannathans> smallfoot-: it is listening fine.
[12:56] <samster34> CountZ: I don't know, hold on
[12:56] <ryannathans> smallfoot-: just not responding with an ip address.
[12:56] <polkilo> can i run Nvidia Optimus on this 12.04 without Bumblbee?
[12:56] <dr_willis> Posglodito: but not a normal file copy
[12:56] <Posglodito> dr_willis there is a link to image an iso to a pendrive?
[12:56] <CountZ> samster34: there are guides via google, on how to deal with a situation such as ours, manually. I'm only referring you to such a guide because I can't for the life of me remember that stuff. It's the kinda thing you do once a year and you forget about it... :-)
[12:57] <llutz> Posglodito: cat yourfile.iso >/dev/sdX    where /dev/sdX is your usb-pendrive
[12:57] <anax> Hey, all. Does anyone have a MSI CX640 laptop and some experience with Ubuntu on it?
[12:57] <dr_willis> Posglodito: tools at pendrivelinux and ither sites. or use dd from a linux box
[12:57] <samster34> CountZ: I don't even know if this is the problem or not...at first it appeared to be a video driver issue
[12:57] <Posglodito> I see, thanks llutz, dr_willis
[12:58] <assurbanipal> hey guys i ve been trying to install gnome-shell extensions for the past 2 days with no success.. i just reinstalled ubuntu 12-04 with another image, but still..
[12:58] <samster34> CountZ: willing to try anything though
[12:58] <CountZ> samster34: here it was an EFI Boot complication... this stupid BIOS can't just boot CD's unless they have an EFI file on them... :-(
[12:58] <polkilo> can i run Nvidia Optimus on this 12.04 without Bumblbee?
[12:58] <samster34> CountZ: ok I'm in grub
[12:59] <CountZ> samster34: ok try to 'ls' and check if you see hd(0,1), etc.
[12:59] <smallfoot-> CountZ, i think most EFI runs in BIOS-compatibility mode, so then perhaps they can boot from El Torito
[12:59] <samster34> CountZ: ls produces a list of (hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos1)
[12:59] <samster34> CountZ: the hell? I only have ubuntu on this thing..
[12:59] <Pitel> smallfoot-: ok, gonna try chrome beta
[12:59] <CountZ> samster34: why msdos, now that is the question :)
[12:59] <CountZ> smallfoot-: i'm not sure I understand that
[12:59] <spartan2276> How can I fix my sound? This is all I get http://askubuntu.com/questions/115128/why-is-my-sound-card-not-recognized-by-the-control-panel
[12:59] <samster34> the two partitions should be / and swap, I created them with the setup...why would they be called this
[13:00] <assurbanipal> hey guys i ve been trying to install gnome-shell extensions for the past 2 days with no success.. i just reinstalled ubuntu 12-04 with another image, but still..can someone help out of it?it is driving me mad!
[13:00] <CountZ> samster34: the names in grub are different. they aren't / and 'swap'. it just tries to be helpful by telling you the type of partition.
[13:00] <anax> Ok, another question. Did any of you experience the blank Additional Drivers? There's just nothing populating the list.
[13:00] <delinquentme> are there any ssh / encryption channels available on freenode?
[13:00] <dr_willis> samster34:  thats not what dos means in this instace i belive
[13:01] <CountZ> anax: I also have nothing in the list of additional drivers
[13:01] <magnumento> Is it possible to get the sqlserv function for PHP installed if I already installed PHP during the Ubuntu installation process?
[13:01] <ryannathans> delinquentme: /connect -ssl irc.freenode.net    ask in #freenode
[13:01] <samster34> CountZ: yeah, but how does it go from regular (ext4?) to msdos?
[13:01] <ryannathans> delinquentme: unless you are talking about crypto
[13:01] <anax> CountZ how did you solve it? Did you manage to install the drivers somehow else?

[13:01] <CountZ> magnumento: apt-get install php5-sybase
[13:01] <smallfoot-> magnumento, edit php.conf file to enable pdo, pdo_mysql, pdo_sqlite
[13:01] <Aram> hey, is there a way I can edit a file owned by apt, like /etc/grub.d/10_linux and bless it in such a way so apt won't nag at every update?
[13:01] <n1> anyone using linux on vmware and connects not through usb stick but regular network_
[13:01] <ryannathans> delinquentme: ##crypto
[13:01] <smallfoot-> CountZ, sybase?? yuck
[13:01] <CountZ> anax: I didn't do anything abou it yet :)
[13:01] <magnumento> thank you both, ill give those both a try quick
[13:02] <CountZ> smallfoot-: well magnumento seems to need mssql access from php...
[13:02] <smallfoot-> CountZ, oh, mssql, yuck
[13:02] <CountZ> I wouldn't use mssql with a gun held against my head.
[13:02] <CountZ> ok maybe with a gun, yes..
[13:02] <magnumento> heh
[13:02] <magnumento> I much prefer MySQL as well
[13:02] <SmoothSage_> haha count :)
[13:02] <ryannathans> how does one get dnsmasq working with 12.04?
[13:02] <magnumento> but the choice is not mine
[13:02] <anax> Countz: Ah, ok. :D I'm trying to install the drivers for GeForce GT520M that's paired with some Intel graphics card. It's some Intel Graphics family. There doesn't seem to be a lot of info about it on the net.
[13:02] <samster34> CountZ: ok, what now? are there any boot options that use basic video drivers, but don't put me in a shell? (my keyboard doesnt work there and I'm unable to do anything)
[13:03] <smallfoot-> well try use mssql via PDO then
[13:03] <smallfoot-> PDO is like a database abstraction layer in PHP
[13:03] <magnumento> smallfoot-, did you mean php.ini? or conf.d?
[13:03] <smallfoot-> then you can easily change to other db maybe
[13:03] <smallfoot-> magnumento, unsure, check both
[13:03] <magnumento> ok
[13:03] <CountZ> samster34: at what point does your keyboard stop working? because it sounds like it does work while you're in grub, right?
[13:03] <MonkeyDust> CountZ  OT, about MySQL, watch this until the end http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/media/marjorie_shapiro.mpeg
[13:04] <samster34> CountZ: yes iot works in grub. during boot, a pretty verbose looking screen, it says "device on port 8 refusing to accept addres 2" then addres 3, 4, 5... then it says unable to enumerate device on port 8, and that's it.
[13:04] <steve-o_> I ran the upgrade from the GUI last night...11.10 => 12.04...went to be while it was still getting packages. This morning, 8 hours later, it is still installing libc-bin. Sounds like the upgrade froze. Computer still working though. How should I recover from this?
[13:04] <steve-o_> *bed not be
[13:05] <samster34> CountZ: then it says "gave up waiting for root device, dropping to shell" but without keyboard that shell doesnt do much
[13:05] <Pitel> smallfoot-: ok, chrome beta (19) works fine.
[13:05] <rigved> steve-o_: in the GUI, expand the terminal tab. it is waiting for input from you...
[13:05] <ryannathans> how does one get dnsmasq working with 12.04?
[13:06] <CountZ> samster34: a usb keyboard? or is that a laptop?
[13:06] <CountZ> MonkeyDust: true true :)
[13:06] <rodd> Hi I'm struggling to update my 10.04 lts to the latest version, I've tried different approaches but haven't succeeded so far. I think I messed up with my sources list, how can i restore it to default? it keeps downloading  package information forever
[13:06] <samster34> CountZ: yes, usb keyboard. tried several, don't have any older
[13:06] <CountZ> samster34: did you try to enable legacy keyboard support in BIOS?
[13:07] <samster34> CountZ: I have no such option
[13:07] <llutz> ryannathans: sudo apt-get install dnsmasq,  then edit the dnsmasq.conf as you need it.
[13:07] <CountZ> hm :(
[13:07] <Dan-The-Man> rodd, the servers are under a lot of load right now it might just take a while
[13:07] <steve-o_> rigved: Duh...thanks. I should have known to do that...appreciate the help.
[13:07] <samster34> CountZ: the bios has only a handful of options
[13:07] <CountZ> what about livecd, does that boot and work ok?
[13:07] <samster34> CountZ: No.
[13:07] <CountZ> yah, new bios are scarce on options...
[13:07] <irendal> Hi, I have a problem trying to install a program from sources in ubuntu... what package can be missing to provoke a "undefined reference to `pthread_create'" when compiling a program?
[13:07] <rigved> steve-o_: you are welcome! all the best with the upgrade!
[13:07] <ryannathans> llutz: since upgrading to 12.04 it's no longer replying to DNS queries with IP addresses.
[13:07] <CountZ> samster34: I tell you it's a conspiracy against linux users...

[13:08] <CountZ> :)
[13:08] <anax> Does anyone know how to manually install a graphic driver for GeForce GT520M?
[13:08] <samster34> CountZ: well its a bit old, and it's a prebuilt system, with a motherboard that doesnt seem to have a brand..
[13:08] <CountZ> anax: just download the driver from nvidia and run the installer, no?
[13:08] <ryannathans> llutz: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11878891
[13:08] <Dan-The-Man> rodd, ?
[13:08] <CountZ> samster34: sounds weird.
[13:08] <samster34> CountZ: how do I edit the grub boot entry to start X in failsafe mode?
[13:08] <anax> That'll work? Cool, I'll try it. I didn't think it's that straightforward.
[13:09] <CountZ> X is not related to grub in any way
[13:09] <samster34> CountZ: I know
[13:09] <llutz> ryannathans: checked logs? does dnsmasq run at all?
[13:09] <ryannathans> llutz: it runs. What logs do you want me to check?
[13:09] <samster34> CountZ: but I cant boot into the recovery menu thing and choose failsafex there, because I get dropped to the shell with no keyboard if I try to boot that
[13:09] <rodd> Dan-The-Man, well, the sources list seems messed up, with tons of entry, not the servers.  I think I ran some command I shouldn't have and that seems to be the problem
[13:09] <llutz> ryannathans: whatever logfile dnsmasq logs to
[13:09] <CountZ> I see
[13:10] <ryannathans> llutz: none. I guess I should configure logging somehow.
[13:10] <Dougie187> Hi All. I'm getting an "invalid arch independent EFI magic" error when I try to boot after installing 12.04. I tried the solution here http://askubuntu.com/questions/125352/fresh-install-of-ubuntu-12-04-amd64-does-not-boot but then when I boot I just get a grub prompt and I can't get it to boot.
[13:10] <CountZ> samster34: you just add "recovery" near "nomodeset"
[13:11] <anax> Thanks for your help, CountZ!
[13:11] <samster34> CountZ: but nomodeset drops me in the shell with no keyboard
[13:11] <CountZ> samster34: so don't add nomodeset, but recovery is added in that same place
[13:11] <AndyUbuntu> does anyone has a link to a fast torrent for 12.04/
[13:11] <AndyUbuntu> ?
[13:11] <CountZ> also make sure you have: insmod part_msdos
[13:12] <samster34> ....next time
[13:12] <CountZ> (right below the menuentry)
[13:12] <AndyUbuntu> just trying to update from repo and its taking ages
[13:12] <ryannathans> llutz: you wouldn't believe this but running it in logging mode (and only logging mode) makes this thing work.
[13:12] <MrKeuner> hello, is ecrytfs passphrase for the encrypted home directory in Ubuntu the same as my rsa key passphrase?

[13:13] <amberfly> bobweaver: It's up fo rme
[13:13] <samster34> CountZ: insmod part_msdos is present
[13:14] <bobweaver> thanks amberfly  wonder why I cant get it too show up
[13:14] <CountZ> samster34: hm... :(  I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.
[13:14] <ryannathans> llutz: AHH, when run from /etc/init.d/dnsmasq start    it doesn't work. When run via commandline, it works.
[13:14] <Dan-The-Man> rodd, well if that is the case i would suggest a fresh install
[13:14] <CountZ> bobweaver: up for me to (from new york)
[13:14] <llutz> ryannathans: sudo service dnsmasq start
[13:14] <samster34> CountZ: trying to see if this did anything...
[13:15] <bobweaver> lol CountZ  I am also in New york

[13:16] <samster34> it says Error -110 if that helps
[13:16] <AndyUbuntu> thanks robgraves
[13:16] <ryannathans> llutz: nope, doesn't work.
[13:16] <ryannathans> llutz: sudo dnsmasq    works though
[13:16] <ryannathans> llutz: "doesn't work" meaning it doesn't reply to dns queries
[13:16] <CountZ> samster34: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=36197
[13:17] <rigved> realsilverscreen: are you able to click on the "Try Ubuntu" button?
[13:17] <samster34> CountZ: aha, "ALERET! /Dev/disk/by-uuid/............. does not exist. Dropping to shell!
[13:17] <llutz> ryannathans: "sudo pkill dnsmasq && sudo service dnsmasq start && sudo lsof -i :53"
[13:17] <CountZ> samster34: there's two things there. there's the "nousb" that he adds in defoptions, and also update-usbids
[13:17] <realsilverscreen> rigved: no
[13:17] <samster34> so trying to rename those GUIDs might work after all? :/
[13:17] <llutz> ryannathans: does it list dnsmasq as listening?
[13:17] <ryannathans> llutz: yes.
[13:17] <ryannathans> llutz: it doesn't reply to DNS queries with an IP though.
[13:17] <CountZ> samster34: yes, that's one more thing, but get your keyboard to work because it will help you identify the issues once you're in shell

[13:20] <^Mike> I am removing ubuntu from a dual-boot system. How do I restore the windows bootloader?
[13:21] <OerHeks> ^Mike,  use your windows cd to restore the mbr
[13:21] <Gnea> ^Mike: a question probably better asked in ##windows
[13:21] <ryannathans> ^Mike: using windows cd "bootrec /fixmbr"
[13:21] <ryannathans> ^Mike: then "bootrec /fixboot"
[13:21] <anev> has foremost been removed from ubuntu's default repos?
[13:21] <^Mike> ok, thanks
[13:21] <rigved> realsilverscreen: make sure that the checksum of the downloaded image is correct

[13:22] <Jiggy> Hi can anyone help me please?
[13:22] <anev> i tried apt-get install foremost and via aptitude - can't find it anymore?
[13:22] <Gnea> ryannathans: does that work with XP, too?
[13:22] <ryannathans> llutz: meh, i'll just use a cronjob to "killall dnsmasq && dnsmasq"
[13:22] <ryannathans> Gnea: should do
[13:22] <Potatisen> No gaming-people in here atm?
[13:22] <CountZ> samster34: yes
[13:22] <ryannathans> Potatisen: I am ;)
[13:22] <Jiggy> ??
[13:22] <llutz> ryannathans: dirty hack. check /etc/default/dnsmasq and /etc/init.d/dnsmasq   for errors or weird entries
[13:22] <Jiggy> guys?
[13:22] <samster34> CountZ: ok, can I do that in the grub commandline? wouldn't the filesystem need to be mounted?

[13:23] <hydra> hi there, whereis NOW locate the slapd.conf for LDAP ?
[13:23] <samster34> husien: .something files are hidden by default
[13:23] <realsilverscreen> rigved: where do you find check sum on ubuntu website?
[13:23] <hydra> I just cannnot find it
[13:23] <samster34> husien: CTRL+H to show hidden files in nautilus
[13:23] <hydra> * located
[13:23] <llutz> ryannathans: there must be a reason why it fails when starting  it as a service
[13:24] <ryannathans> llutz: IGNORE_RESOLVCONF=yes
[13:24] <nuclearkitten> locate says /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
[13:24] <Jiggy> ok, so I've just installed 12.04 and when I try to boot it I get a red screen for a few seconds and then a blank screen, wat do?
[13:24] <nuclearkitten> but not sure
[13:24] <ryannathans> llutz: it was commented out before, now it works ;)
[13:24] <gunfire007> if i want to use rpm package how can i use ??
[13:24] <husien> samster34: so how to edit that file?
[13:24] <nuclearkitten> any ideas where to find the LDAP slapd.conf ?
[13:24] <CountZ> samster34: best is if you mount the filesystem, chroot to it, edit the file and run update-grub etc.
[13:24] <CountZ> because without updating grub your changes will be in vain
[13:24] <llutz> ryannathans: stuff always works (if you do it right) :)
[13:24] <gaelfx> gunfire007: rpm is for Fedora, so you would have to use that ideally
[13:24] <samster34> CountZ: but how? I have no clue how do that in the grub command line
[13:24] <rigved> realsilverscreen: it is on the same page from which you downloaded the ubuntu image. where did you download from?
[13:24] <Jiggy> ?
[13:25] <gunfire007> gaelfx: so i can't
[13:25] <samster34> husien: try gedit .htaccess
[13:25] <gaelfx> gunfire007: you should look for a .deb package
[13:25] <ryannathans> llutz: eventually ;) thank for the /etc/default/ pointer
[13:25] <WhereIsMySpoon> Hi, Im trying to install ia32-libs but even with the universe repos uncommented in /etc/apt/sources.list and an apt-get update it says it isnt available..anyone can help, please?

[13:25] <gunfire007> so i can't  use that software on my buntu...
[13:25] <husien> samster34: ok thanks
[13:25] <llutz> ryannathans: np
[13:25] <Jiggy> ???
[13:26] <OerHeks> WhereIsMySpoon, since 11.10 ubuntu 64 bit is multi arch
[13:26] <gaelfx> gunfire007: unless you can find a .deb file for it, no
[13:26] <WhereIsMySpoon> OerHeks, ok? why does that mean i cant install those lisb
[13:26] <WhereIsMySpoon> libs
[13:26] <realsilverscreen> rigved: you see checksum when you download?? i downloaded from ubuntu.com
[13:26] <smallfoot-> WhereIsMySpoon, install 'multiarch-support'
[13:26] <gunfire007> gaelfx: ok
[13:26] <OerHeks> WhereIsMySpoon, yes, you could.
[13:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> smallfoot-, i have ia32-libs-multiarch package installed
[13:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> is that the right one?
[13:27] <OerHeks> smallfoot-, why ? it is already available....
[13:27] <smallfoot-> WhereIsMySpoon, i think it should be named 'multiarch-support', thats the one i have
[13:27] <rigved> realsilverscreen: it is there on this page: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/
[13:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> smallfoot-, ah yes, its already installed
[13:27] <smallfoot-> OerHeks, idk, but i have multiarch-support installed and 32-bit works for me
[13:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> latest vesrion
[13:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> i guess this isnt the fix for my actual problem then
[13:28] <WhereIsMySpoon> what im getting is: /sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 is not a symbolic link
[13:28] <WhereIsMySpoon> and i was told to install all the packages related to ia32-libs
[13:29] <Dougie187> I'm having a really hard time getting 12.04 to boot. After I install I get "invalid arch independent EFI magic" and none of the solutions I've found online fix it.
[13:29] <rigved> realsilverscreen: my mistake. it is on this page: http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/
[13:30] <WhereIsMySpoon> smallfoot-, you know why im getting this error?
[13:30] <killer> anyone got here bcm4312 wireless card
[13:30] <gaelfx> WhereIsMySpoon: multi-arch support is, I believe a meta package that makes sure all those libs are installed
[13:30] <smallfoot-> WhereIsMySpoon, i dont know
[13:30] <smallfoot-> gaelfx, yes
[13:30] <WhereIsMySpoon> gaelfx, yes i have multi-arch support package installed
[13:30] <smallfoot-> gaelfx, multiarch-support*
[13:31] <rigved> realsilverscreen: you must have the ubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso, right? then, open the md5sums file and search for the md5sum in the list for your iso file.
[13:31] <gunfire007> can ubuntu be installed on arm architechture ??
[13:31] <gaelfx> gunfire007: yes, I think that's the armel spin you want to download for that
[13:31] <rigved> gunfire007: on arm7, yes.
