[08:43] <iqualfragile> hey guys im having a bit of a problem here: im on 64-bit ubuntu, installed virtualbox-ose. now i try to run the 64-bit ubuntu-server but it says i would have 32-bit hardware
[08:43] <spoofkelberry> I found the problem
[08:43] <spoofkelberry> go into terminal and type nvidia-settings
[08:44] <spoofkelberry> and then click on x server display configuration
[08:44] <spoofkelberry> and you're able to enable it
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> iqualfragile: if your CPU doesn't support 64bit virtualization you cannot run 64bit guest OS
[08:44] <shihan> sadly, that board of mine has departed this world for the next life :)

[08:45] <shihan> is that an amd chip?
[08:45] <iqualfragile> no, intel
[08:45] <jofr54> ActionParsnip  how to install ubuntu minimal ?
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> !minimal | jofr54
[08:46] <jilt007> create file using cat touch  echo..   Is there any more way to do so?
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> iqualfragile: check in BIOS. Why do you want 64bit guest so bad?
[08:46] <shihan> you need the vmx flag in intel for hardware virt (could be switched off in bios though)
[08:47] <jofr54> ok ActionParsnip  and ubottu  i will try
[08:47] <shihan> iqualfragile: what cpu model is it?
[08:48] <iqualfragile> model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad  CPU   Q8200  @ 2.33GHz
[08:48] <iqualfragile> allso im unable to allow any guest to use more then one cpu
[08:48] <iqualfragile> im shure i did that earlier
[08:48] <furycd001> Can anyone tell me how i can get a MicroNEXT MN-WD550M wireless dongle working with the ubuntu minimal.iso :?  It doesn't seem to be recognised & the installation keeps asking me to set up dchp…
[08:49] <Michelle_> hi, i need help with booting ubuntu on mac via usb :/
[08:49] <shihan> no vmx flag on q8200 apparently
[08:50] <jofr54> what is the best ext3 or ext4 ?
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> iqualfragile: if the feature is disabled in BIOS, it won't work
[08:50] <iqualfragile> ok, im gona check that
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> jofr54: I'd go with Ext4, its by no means better but its a bit faster. Deopends on needs
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> iqualfragile: why do you need 64bit guest?
[08:51] <jofr54> the more fast ?
[08:51] <iqualfragile> because i need to rebuild a network, where this computer is on 64 bit, its important
[08:51] <shihan> might wanna read that bit: http://tuxradar.com/content/virtualisation-made-easy
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> iqualfragile: ok cool, check BIOS first :)
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> jofr54: ext4 is faster
[08:51] <jofr54> ok thnaks
[08:52] <jofr54> thank*

[08:53] <rizwan> hi
[08:54] <rizwan> how to install java in wine on ubuntu 12.04
[08:54] <Michelle_> i need help booting ubuntu on mac via usb :(
[08:54] <morgan> have they fixed the java exploits yet?
[08:55] <rizwan> i need to install on application exe on ubuntu through wine , but ending with an error java not instlled
[08:55] <rizwan> on ubuntu installed java7
[08:55] <rizwan> and checked its working fine
[08:55] <Michelle_> rizwan: try to install java windows version on wine
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: make the bootable USB in the normal way, and insert the usb to the device.
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: what app are you trying to run?
[08:56] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: should i use refit? because using refit and choosing linux makes the screen on black
[08:56] <Michelle_> only*
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: surely if it's Java , it will run on the Linux OS natively....
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: no idea, I don't buy Mac rubbish
[08:57] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: -.-
[08:57] <rizwan> facebook chat client
[08:57] <rizwan> trying to run through wine
[08:57] <Michelle_> rizwan: does the app you want to use has format .jar?
[08:58] <hoijui> my /boot is relatively small (~ 100MB). with about one new kernel per month, ubuntu fills it up in no time, and then fails to update new stuff
[08:58] <rizwan> its in exe format
[08:59] <hoijui> couldnt the kernel update somehow check if there is enough space, and suggest removal of old kernel packages if not?
[08:59] <smadam> hi everyone, how can I read a 0x83 partition (in windows or linux). in ubuntu, it says there is data, but won't mount...in windows, of course it doesn't natively read linux partitions, even with the help of a 3rd party tool
[08:59] <Michelle_> rizwan: http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=68735
[09:00] <Michelle_> rizwan: try to install it on wine
[09:00] <iqualfragile> i was unable to find an option like that
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: tried http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enable-facebook-chat-for-pidgin-in-ubuntu.html
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: doesn't it run in the web browser?
[09:01] <rizwan> earlier i install jdk-6-windows-i586 through wine
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: or are you wanting to use webcam etc?
[09:01] <rizwan> downloading file by ur link, its 27Mb file
[09:02] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: http://superuser.com/questions/192253/how-do-you-enable-webcam-support-in-facebook-for-ubuntu-10-04
[09:02] <Michelle_> someone knows about refit who can help me?
[09:02] <rizwan> Thanks for asking about webcam, no need now if required will definately let u know, thanks you sooo much :)
[09:02] <jofr54> ubottu   i downlaed mini.iso  and I boot on
[09:03] <iqualfragile> so what can i do?
[09:03] <rizwan> ActionParsnip : Thanks for asking about webcam, no need now if required will definately let u know, thanks you sooo much :)
[09:03] <nokia> is it possible to install Ubuntu12.04 (bare minimum) and then install xfce totally bypassing unity/gnome3.
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: http://shuffleos.com/5569/jfbchat-facebook-chat-client-ubuntu-desktop/  found that too?
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> nokia: yes
[09:03] <Calinou> nokia, why not use xubuntu?
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> !minimal | nokia
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> nokia: then install xfce4 once rebooted to the minimal install, may want to install network-manager or wicd for network (if xfce4 doesn't pull one in)
[09:04] <nokia> I want to completely avoid the unity/gnome3 tablet os
[09:05] <tsimpson> nokia: why not just install xubuntu?
[09:05] <ActionParsnip> nokia: why not just install Xubuntu?
[09:05] <sajan> How well does xfce work on Ubuntu? (might be a newb question), I like xfce and don't like Unity.  However Xubuntu is crashing all over the place.
[09:05] <Calinou> three people said this :)
[09:06] <Calinou> unity certainly isn't a tablet OS, btw
[09:06] <tenX> but why pink
[09:10] <rizwan> <ActionParsnip : Actionvoip is not working through wine, its crashing again and again
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> sajan: works well, could also try Kubuntu or Lubuntu
[09:12] <iqualfragile> so it seems like my cpu does not support vtx, how can i run an 64-bit os anyways?
[09:12] <sajan> ActionParsnip: Will do.  REALLY like xfce, and definitely want something backed by someone like Canonical.
[09:12] <extropy> is there a community for displaced PPC-era Apple-turned-linux users?
[09:14] <iqualfragile> seems like it would be impossible…
[09:14] <iqualfragile> thats sad
[09:15] <zombii> ?
[09:16] <Guest29303> do i need to configure AppArmor or it do the work then it is installed ?
[09:16] <gipzo> Hi, are there any good guides to make system partition read-only? Ubuntu-server is on USB flash and it's very slow when writing on it...
[09:16] <maddinw> Goor morning everyone
[09:17] <iqualfragile> just mount it with -ro
[09:17] <maddinw> mout it with the option -ro
[09:17] <gipzo> It is not booting then )
[09:17] <maddinw> Then it probably needs write access
 : Actionvoip is not working through wine, its crashing again and again
[09:17] <maddinw> Anyway, I have trouble with seahorse.
[09:17] <gipzo> And showing some error messages with tty's
[09:17] <morgan> how do I make unity not show non mounted stuff? or... this device that I don't believe should be mounted
[09:17] <morgan> I wanna use fstab instead of whatever unity is trying to do
[09:18] <iqualfragile> you can use myunity
[09:18] <rizwan> morgan : Actionvoip is not working through wine, its crashing again and again , any idea
[09:18] <maddinw> I have backed up my files with deja-dup and restored them that way too.
[09:18] <iqualfragile> and configure wich devices should be shown
[09:18] <maddinw> Now, after restoring them I delete my gnome config files
[09:18] <maddinw> And suddenly my passwords are gone
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> sajan: Lubuntu and Kubuntu are both official canonical releases
[09:19] <maddinw> The files are there however
[09:19] <maddinw> secring.gpg and pubring.gpg are there
[09:20] <maddinw> Is there any way I can re-import these passwords into seahorse? Importing them with the import option (duh) doesn't work
[09:20] <sajan> ActionParsnip: Good to know.  I've only moved to Linux for about a year and really only knew Unity.  I'm really like these other DMs.  Good to see Canonical support and release others.
[09:21] <maddinw> Funny thing is: if I don't remove my old config files, the passwords are still there
[09:21] <maddinw> Any idas
[09:21] <maddinw> *ideas?
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> sajan: indeed, there is chocie
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> sajan: they are DEs too, not DMs :)
[09:26] <rizwan> <ActionParsnip :- action voip application is not working through wine , its crashing s soon as it opens
[09:26] <n2i> Hi all!
[09:27] <n2i> Why is the TexLive version in Ubuntu is 2009? It seems very old?
[09:27] <rizwan> i have action voip account and balance, but unable to use on ubuntu, for using i need to use windows everytime;`(
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> n2i: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=texlive
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> n2i: https://launchpad.net/~aelmahmoudy/+archive/tl2009?field.series_filter=precise
[09:30] <rizwan> <ActionParsnip : any idea about ActionVoip calling service and applications ?
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> rizwan: not something I use, sory
[09:31] <gipzo> I mounted system as ro and this what i got
[09:31] <gipzo> IOError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/var/log/supervisor/supervisord.log'
[09:31] <gipzo> touch: setting times of `/var/lib/sudo`: Read-only file system
[09:31] <gipzo> touch: cannot touch `/var/lib/sudo/testy/tty1`: Read-only file system
[09:31] <gipzo> grub-editenv: error: cannot open the file /boot/grub/grubenv
[09:32] <rizwan> ActionParsnip: ok, no problem, thanks
[09:32] <gipzo> should i use tmpfs for /var or it's not very good?
[09:32] <gipzo> Now i got only this in my fstab
[09:32] <gipzo> /dev/sda1 /               ext2    noatime,ro 0       1
[09:32] <gipzo> none /tmp tmpfs nr_inodes=200k,mode=01777,size=32M,nosuid,nodev 0 0
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> gipzo: as long as it's big enough, why no. You can aways test it then if it's bad then boot to liveCD or root recovery and edit /etc/fstab back
[09:35] <gipzo> Ok, thanks ;)
[09:37] <gipzo> One more question: How can i mount directory as rw on ro partition?
[09:38] <gipzo> I'm worried about this line: "grub-editenv: error: cannot open the file /boot/grub/grubenv"
[09:38] <tsimpson> you can't mount a directory, if you need write access you need to mount the partition as rw
[09:39] <Guest91997> HALLO, ICH BIN HITLER!

[09:41] <leotr> ActionParsnip, i did run the comands you gave me, updated ubuntu but still mouse is laggy and keyboard also is ^(
[09:42] <morgan> okay I confused myself... how can I hide the devices in Nautilus, not unity lol
[09:42] <morgan> or is there something better than Nautilus?
[09:43] <stephan_arch2> hey guys, does anyone know if there is a working playmouth-manager(GUI)?
[09:43] <hex20dec> Hey people, question. How would I view the \r or \n in text files where I execute the command 'echo hello >> file.txt'?
[09:43] <stephan_arch2> morgan, maybe spacefm is something for you, very editable :)
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> morgan: better is an opinion, it is never concrete
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> morgan: I like pcmanfm :)
[09:44] <aakram> hello everyone!
[09:44] <stephan_arch2> ActionParsnip, pacmanfm is still supported?
[09:44] <cvr> morgan: just install mc and be done with it
[09:44] <smartboyhw> Hi aakram
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> stephan_arch2: its the default file manager in Lubuntu...so yes
[09:44] <Guest29303> Recomend linux firewall with gui. Does iptables have gui ?
[09:44] <smartboyhw> ActionParsnip is too busy:)
[09:45] <aakram> I have just setup a new PC and I am able to install ubuntu, but not run it. I was wondering if someone is able to help?
[09:45] <smartboyhw> aakram: Why?
[09:45] <aakram> hi smartboyhw!
[09:45] <morgan> cvr, midnight commander?
[09:45] <theadmin> Guest29303: Install "gufw", it's a frontend to UFW, which is a frontend to iptables
[09:46] <jakeR333> hi
[09:46] <cvr> morgan: yeh
[09:46] <jakeR333> i come in peace!
[09:46] <aakram> well, the new system has a UEFI bios, an SSD primary drive, and a RAID 1 secondary drive array. Ubuntu, CentOS, or Fedora all install OK, but fail the same way to boot. Even the live versions of these OSs fail to boot.
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> !firewall | Guest29303
[09:46] <theadmin> aakram: EFI requires a special GRUB version
[09:47] <aakram> theadmin, thanks. But even for a Live OS?
[09:47] <theadmin> aakram: In Ubuntu, the package is called "grub-efi". Follow the command-line way as described in the !recovergrub factoid, but apt-get install grub-efi first.
[09:47] <marcappuccino> aakram did you add the 1mb biosgrub parttion?
[09:47] <smartboyhw> !efi
[09:47] <marcappuccino> for gpt tables
[09:47] <theadmin> aakram: I'm not sure what can be the problem with live boot though
[09:47] <smartboyhw> !uefi
[09:47] <theadmin> !botabuse > smartboyhw
[09:47] <aakram> marcapuccino, no but thanks for the tip. I will look into it
[09:48] <smartboyhw> ...
[09:48] <marcappuccino> it is prompted to add it on ubuntu 12.04 installation if it is not added already - it allows the bios to recognise the mbr in the gpt table
[09:49] <aakram> Will a Live OS fail the same way? When I say 'fail', what happens is that the OS loads for a while as it would normally do and then stops loading. The screen stays black and I never see the login msg
[09:49] <marcappuccino> aakram press esc and you can see the logs on the splash screen
[09:49] <aakram> I tried but there's nothing to be seen. screen stays black
[09:50] <marcappuccino> hmm
[09:50] <marcappuccino> system specs?
[09:50] <jakeR333> can i upgrade my old ubuntu without losing all my programs and settings ?
[09:50] <marcappuccino> update-manager -d
[09:50] <aakram> smartboyhw: !uefi?
[09:50] <theadmin> jakeR333: Yes, run "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" or "gksudo update-manager -d"
[09:51] <theadmin> aakram: (s)he was playing with ubottu, unfortunately she doesn't have a factoid on UEFI
[09:51] <aakram> oh ok
[09:51] <marcappuccino> bye everyone
[09:51] <smartboyhw> theadmin: I am not trying to play with it
[09:51] <smartboyhw> I just thought there is supposed to be a UEFI factoid
[09:51] <aakram> bye marcapuccino. thanks for the help
[09:51] <Pikmin> hi everyone, can i get some help with libvirt and bridged networks? just need to clarify something
[09:52] <theadmin> smartboyhw: Sorry, poor choice of words. Please PM the bot the next time you want to check whether there is a factoid of something (especially if you fail at first try), though.
[09:53] <n2i> Oh, thanks!
[09:54] <smartboyhw> OH OK
[09:54] <aakram> so you guys reckon this is definitely a uefi/Grub issue?
[09:54] <smartboyhw> aakram: Yes
[09:54] <aakram> and same with a live OS?
[09:54] <aakram> I read that a live OS, booting off a cd would be fine
[09:54] <theadmin> aakram: Well, they use GRUB on LiveCDs, although it's weird, since most people are able to live-boot on EFI
[09:55] <morgan> mmmmm those file managers all suck lol
[09:55] <aakram> cheers everyone. I will give this another go.
[09:55] <aakram> bye
[09:56] <theadmin> Ok this is weird, Firefox just randomly hung
[09:57] <zombii> whats weird about that?
[09:57] <Michelle_> someone can tell me fast what grub menu is used for?
[09:57] <theadmin> Michelle_: Um, booting into different OS'es/kernels
[09:57] <anti-freeze> Hey guys, does disk encryption that comes with Ubuntu 12.10 slow the system down?
[09:58] <Michelle_> and if i wanna boot normal to ubuntu?
[09:58] <sogeking99> hey guys, can anyone tell me how to install adobe air on ubuntu 12.04 64bit
[09:58] <theadmin> Michelle_: Then you can avoid the grub menu by setting your boot timeout to 0
[09:58] <zombii> encryption will always add extra workload to the CPU
[09:58] <Michelle_> ok :)
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> anti-freeze: ask in #ubuntu+1 for Quantal support please
[09:58] <theadmin> sogeking99: Unfortunately, Adobe have killed Air on Linux
[09:59] <zombii> yeah
[09:59] <zombii> some one was trying with wine. dont know if it worked
[09:59] <sogeking99> theadmin, oh i see. I bought mcpixel which has a linux version, but it needs adobe air?
[10:00] <theadmin> sogeking99: There still are some old versions on adobe's website, eh, let me find it
[10:00] <falco_> Hi my wifi at home is fast, but when i visit my dad it is super slow, i disabled ipv6 but it remains slow. Can I fix this somehow?
[10:01] <zombii> is it slow on dad's com as well?
[10:01] <marcappuccino> your dad has different wifi?
[10:01] <zombii> computer*
[10:01] <theadmin> sogeking99: http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/2.6/AdobeAIRInstaller.bin - this is the last AIR version which had Linux support.
[10:01] <falco_> only on my laptop it is
[10:01] <sogeking99> theadmin, okay thanks, how do i install the .bin?
[10:01] <zombii> what router?
[10:01] <haneluya> Does anyone know how to configure my fingerprint scanner on my laptop? It seems useless in ubuntu. Which packages do I need to install? I tried to google it, and found "thinkfinger-tools", but I can't apt-get it. Any solution?
[10:02] <theadmin> sogeking99: Make it executable and run it (something along the lines of "chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin && ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin" when you cd to the directory it's located in
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> sogeking99: mark it as executable then run it with sudo
[10:04] <janek21> hey
[10:04] <sogeking99> theadmin, ActionParsnip: I got an error Adobe AIR could not be installed. 'Install either Gnome Keyring or KDE KWallet before installing Adobe AIR.'
[10:04] <sogeking99> but I am on unity
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> sogeking99: then install it :)
[10:04] <theadmin> sogeking99: That's weird since at least one of those should come with Ubuntu.
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> sogeking99: Unity is not a replacement for Gnome
[10:04] <theadmin> sogeking99: (Unity is just a shell for GNOME by the way)
[10:05] <sogeking99> oh ok
[10:05] <falco_> its a different router
[10:05] <falco_> when I had dual boot on my laptop and I logged in on windows it worked, but now i only have ubuntu on it
[10:05] <falco_> I'm connected to my dad's network atm with a lan-cable
[10:05] <zombii> no i mean what kind of router is that? (make and model)
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> falco_: what ethernet chip are you using? Does the interface have an IP? Can you ping the router's internal IP?
[10:06] <sogeking99> searching gnome keyring on the software centre shows 'keyring access' which is installed
[10:06] <Michelle_> i get black screen when choosing run ubuntu live on grub menu
[10:06] <zombii> by slow im assumeing he has connectivity
[10:06] <falco_> the router is belkin N+
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> falco_: doesn't matter what the router is
[10:07] <zombii> patiently wait. sometimes live OS takes a while to load and doesnt give a loading screen. but then again the ISO could have been bad, or the tool used to make the disk might have f(*^^d up
[10:08] <zombii> if i am going to help him, it would be useful to know what router it is  >_<
[10:08] <sogeking99> Why do Adobe have to make things difficult for Linux users
[10:08] <ActionParsnip> sogeking99: ask them
[10:09] <fcomputer> hi all :)
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> zombii: it will obey defacto standards, so you only need to worry about what the network link is.
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> falco_: you say yu are conencting with the ethernet...what ethernet chip are you using?
[10:09] <zombii> oh my god nevermind fuck THE WORLD IM OUT
[10:09] <Calinou> using xubuntu 12.04.1 64 bit. why am I forced to use 50hz 1440x900 when I can use 60hz 1440x900? using proprietary nvidia driver
[10:09] <Calinou> 32 bit didn't do that
[10:10] <falco_> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192409/
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> falco_: your wifi has an IP...is that from the router in question?
[10:13] <Calinou> also, how can I change screen brightness on xubuntu? looks like I can't do that
[10:13] <falcogw> ActionParsnip: had to reconnect here srry
[10:13] <falcogw> the output of ifconfig is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192409/
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> falcogw: yeah, are your wifi adapter has an IP, is that from the router in question?
[10:15] <falcogw> yes that is the router in question
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> falcogw: but you get no web access?
[10:16] <falcogw> ActionParsnip: now I'm not on wifi, but when I'm on wifi I do have web-access, but it's extremely slow
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> falcogw: so you want to use the wired?
[10:17] <falcogw> ActionParsnip: no I would like to use the wireless, now I'm on the wired because wireless is too slow
[10:17] <falcogw> at home i got a different router but from the same brand (belkin)
[10:22] <falcogw> ActionParsnip: iwconfig output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192427/
[10:23] <falcogw> it says Mode:Managed  Access Point is that correct?
[10:24] <gogeta> falcogw: you whant AP mode if it supports it
[10:24] <gogeta> falcogw: if you whant a acess point
[10:28] <billc> i would like to connect a belkin home base control center to ubuntu
[10:28] <falcogw> gogeta: I dont want it to work as access point, how can i change the mode?
[10:28] <Calinou> anyone? :P
[10:28] <gogeta> falcogw: then managed us fine

[10:30] <tryingUbuntu> what is up with this.. Samsung Gal s3 works fine on windows?  I get this with Ubuntu 12.04      Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device
[10:30] <rizwan> aakram | michal : gtalk video chat/call  in pidgin, how to do that
[10:31] <falcogw> thanks for the help so far gogeta and ActionParsnip , I have to go now
[10:31] <Michelle_> how to boot ubuntu via bootable usb on mac using refit?
[10:31] <tryingUbuntu> the system asks what to do when I plug in usb to the computer, opens and I see the folders and Not the pictures??
[10:32] <rizwan> gtalk video chat in pidgin , any one have any idea ?
[10:32] <Michelle_> guys i get black screen when trying to boot live linux ubuntu via grub menu, someone knows why?
[10:33] <gogeta> Michelle_: video driver issue
[10:33] <Michelle_> do you know how i can fix it?
[10:34] <Michelle_> i use mac mountain lion
[10:34] <Michelle_> :P
[10:34] <tryingUbuntu> also, when using gnome2 to access the Samsung gal s3 I get  No jukeboxes found on USB bus  after the gnome2 screen goes dark grey
[10:35] <Pazzie> hi all
[10:35] <Pazzie> i was wondering if somebody can help me with a small thing
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: try the boot option: nomodeset
[10:36] <gogeta> Michelle_: you wait a minute sometimes its just the boot animation you don't see
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: the installed OS has zero bearing on booting Ubuntu from USB
[10:36] <Pazzie> i want to resize (make it bigger) my first hdd (vmware)
[10:36] <bekks> Pazzie: Shutdown the vm, resize it, start the vm.
[10:37] <Pazzie> @bekks and does ubuntu see it automaticly?
[10:37] <bekks> Pazzie: No. Because you have to resize the Ubuntu partition(s) and filesystem(s) too.
[10:38] <AlexDextrose> can somebody give me a link to show supported hardware?
[10:38] <gogeta> Michelle_: if you still don't see anything you will need to go into bash and install your video driver
[10:38] <Pazzie> bekks: okay and how do i do that?
[10:38] <Pazzie> the first part i understand
[10:39] <Michelle_> gogeta: even the keyboard won't respond on the boot screen, no purple screen too
[10:40] <Michelle_> i'm using refit for mac to detect the bootable usb, i'm trying to install ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit
[10:41] <tryingUbuntu> what is up with this.. Samsung Gal s3 works fine on windows?  I get this with Ubuntu 12.04      Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device
[10:41] <Pazzie> bekks: i resized the disk in vmware,
[10:41] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: when you last unplugged it, did you safetly remove it from Windows ?
[10:41] <tryingUbuntu> cant find anything that helps on the web
[10:42] <Pazzie> bekks: how do i now resize the partition in ubuntu (cli)
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: or from the last OS you used it in?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: or did you just rip it out with no software interaction?
[10:42] <tryingUbuntu> ActionParsnip Yes windows, no linux.. Dont know how to "saftley"
[10:43] <tryingUbuntu> I get No jukeboxes found on USB bus in gnomade2
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: it will be in the unity bar, or you can use CLI, sounds like the device is locked due to not being released. Try rebooting the device
[10:43] <bekks> Pazzie: By using a gparted live livecd.
[10:43] <zorgborg> does anyone know how to convert a .exe to .bin for a BIOS update? or is that not possible and my only option would be to install coreboot?
[10:43] <bekks> zorgborg: There is no way to do so, generically.
[10:43] <tryingUbuntu> Thats not it.  I just turned it on and plugged it in.
[10:44] <zorgborg> bekks: k
[10:44] <Pazzie> bekks: i dont understand, do i need to download it? there is no other way?
[10:44] <tryingUbuntu> ActionParsnip  Thats not it.  I just turned it on and plugged it in.
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: are you trying to access the storage in the device?
[10:44] <bekks> Pazzie: Correct.
[10:45] <tryingUbuntu> ActionParsnip   yes.  and transfer files like I can on win7
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: What file system is the storage?
[10:45] <tryingUbuntu> I have a Samsung Galazy S3
[10:46] <Pazzie> bekks: the cd says its for x86 only, and i have x64 system is that a problem?
[10:46] <bekks> Pazzie: No.
[10:47] <tryingUbuntu> ActionParsnip    I have a Samsung Galazy S3  if that is what you were asking
[10:47] <Pazzie> bekks: okay, so basicly, just download the cd, mount the iso, and boot from cd and resize the partition? is it that simpel?
[10:49] <Sun2> greetings!
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> tryingUbuntu: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-easily-mount-the-galaxy-nexus-on-ubuntu-11-10-via-unity  try that
[10:49] <tryingUbuntu> Pazzie   I use gparted for the partition
[10:49] <Sun2> is there any known way to make unity's interface resemble the old netbook remix?
[10:49] <Sun2> with categorized menus and everything
[10:49] <tryingUbuntu> ActionParsnip  I will but I think it is device specific from what I have been reading/

[10:53] <rymate1234> gey
[10:53] <rymate1234> hey
[10:53] <rymate1234> small problem with ubuntu
[10:53] <rymate1234> trying to use ym usb headset with it
[10:53] <Pikmin> libvirt and bridged networks, anyone? :)
[10:53] <Konigsberg7> anyone use youtube-dl
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> rymate1234: is the device set as the output device in sound settings?
[10:53] <rymate1234> however when I plug it in, no sound comes out of it, even when I select it with the ubuntu sound options
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: I have done
[10:53] <Sun2> i'll try again: is there any known way to make unity's interface resemble the old netbook remix? with categorized menus and such
[10:54] <rymate1234> it is however recognised
[10:54] <rymate1234> the sound just comes out of my laptop speakers
[10:54] <Konigsberg7>  ActionParsnip: python youtube-dl.py --audio-format best "UvnjIEThU-U.flv"
[10:54] <Konigsberg7> is there something wrong with that
[10:54] <Konigsberg7> im trying to convert my flv into a audio file
[10:54] <truexfan81> anyone managed to run the btlive client on 12.04?
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: there is a site for that
[10:55] <Sun2> Konigsberg7, you can just use mplayer for that
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: http://www.youtube-mp3.org/   let them do the work
[10:55] <Konigsberg7>  theres a lot of ways to do it
[10:55] <Konigsberg7> and mp3 is bad quality
[10:55] <Konigsberg7> id like to learn terminal wise
[10:55] <Sun2> Konigsberg7, try: mplayer -ao pcm file.flv
[10:55] <Sun2> that should leave you with a file named 'audiodump.wav'
[10:56] <auronandace> truexfan81: if that has anything to do with backtrack then it isn't supported here
[10:56] <truexfan81> i have no idea, its a live stream thing
[10:56] <truexfan81> they have a deb package, but it won't install due to missing dep python 2.6
[10:57] <Konigsberg7> i guess i need to get mplayer, im on windows
[10:57] <Guest14042> I make Opera and Firefox connect trough tor network to "dns leakage" test page. In Firefox i see about 12 DNS servers, but not my ISP. In Opera i see only my ISP. How that happen ?
[10:59] <Pazzie> bekks: are you still here
[10:59] <bekks> Pazzie: Yes, I am.
[11:01] <Pazzie> bekks: i started gparted, and i resize the partition but i cannot resize sda5 (i see a lock symbol
[11:01] <bekks> Pazzie: Then turn off swap usage.
[11:01] <Pazzie> bekks: how do i do that?
[11:02] <bekks> Pazzie: http://techie-buzz.com/foss/ubuntu-enable-disable-swap-partition.html
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: I can assume you a 2000 bps MP£ is not poor quality at all
[11:03] <cebor> hi how can i upgrade to ubuntu 12.10 ? update-manager -d has no effect
[11:03] <Konigsberg7> mplayer im sure its good
[11:03] <Konigsberg7> ill dl it
[11:03] <Konigsberg7> just wanna do youtubedl in 1 cmd though
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> cebor: ask in #ubuntu+1 for Quantal please
[11:03] <Konigsberg7> thanks for the mplayer tip
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: web browsers have addons and extensions you can use too
[11:04] <Konigsberg7> i know a lot of ways to do it, but doing it in one command is going to be nice
[11:04] <Konigsberg7> normally id just use dbpoweramp and if that didnt work for some reason, id go as far as sony vegas
[11:04] <Pazzie> bekks: can i do this from the gparted cd or do i need to reboot the system and do it from there, and then restart the gparted cd ?
[11:04] <bekks> Pazzie: You have to do it from the live cd, when using the live cd.
[11:05] <Pikmin> if i wanted to backup my linux partition, to be bootable and all, would i use the dd command?
[11:07] <Pazzie> bekks: i cannot do anything with it, it has a lock symbol not a key symbol (sorry dont know how better to explain it)
[11:07] <Pazzie> bekks: the filesystem is lvm2 pv
[11:07] <c14m0> //mode $cl4m0 +x
[11:07] <wolfric> so at the moment, the software center and the likes seem to be the only tools that will install multiple things by queuing them. this isn't possible as far as i know with apt-get/aptitude. are there any commandline tools that will queue packages to install?
[11:07] <wolfric> or remove
[11:10] <bekks> Pazzie: lvm pv is not a filesystem, but a partition type.
[11:11] <Pazzie> bekks: okay, i pretty new to linux (ubuntu) so i was trying to give as much information as possible
[11:11] <Guest14042> Where i can change my DNS server?  in /etc/resolv.conf is my localhost ...
[11:11] <bekks> Pazzie: You have to extend the physical volume (pv) for lvm then, then extend the volume group (vg), then extend the volume and then resize the filesystem inside the volume.
[11:12] <Pikmin> add nameserver ipaddress to /etc/resolv.conf
[11:13] <Michelle_> hi, i get stuck at "loading /casper/vmlinuz.... , i waited minutes but nothing happens
[11:15] <Konigsberg7> there..."python youtube-dl.py --extract-audio -k "url""  keeps the best quality video and audio
[11:15] <Pazzie> bekks: i did that the /dev/sda says its 10GB (that is correct because it was 5) /dev/sda2 (extend partition) i resize from 5 to 10GB but now i want to resize the /dev/sda5 and that dont work, i still have the lock symbol the only thing i can do is change the flag
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[11:15] <Michelle_> how do i do that?
[11:16] <Michelle_> or i'll use google.... :P
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Guest14042: you can use /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail   to add the nameserver you want to use. Add a line like:   nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: without MD5 testing, you have no real way of knowing the data you downloaded is complete or consistent
[11:17] <NoNaMeNo> hi, I've being using ubuntu for a week or so, and my desktop experience is quite lagged, dual screen, 2560x1600 + 1920x1080, does it mean my grafic card is too weak? I tried with an nVidia 8400gs (free and propietary drivers) and an Radeon HD3850 (free drivers)
[11:17] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: i'll check the md5 via terminal
[11:18] <Jonii> NoNaMeNo: what do you mean by lagged?
[11:18] <charles_> why is Linux better than Windows?
[11:18] <charles_> :D
[11:18] <Jonii> charles___: obvious troll is obvious
[11:18] <delinquentme> how can I launch an instance of GEDIT on a file from the command prompt ... without having that prompt hanging up on the state ( open / closed ) of the file?
[11:18] <LjL> !ot | charles___
[11:19] <norbert_> hi, I'm looking into installing a midi editor, and when I apt-get install rosegarden or qtractor, Ubuntu is going to also install jackd
[11:19] <delinquentme> Basically I want to be able to " gedit file1 "  then " gedit file2 "  ... "gedit file3"  without having the console wait for me to close a previous file
[11:19] <norbert_> could that be problematic for other software/programs?
[11:20] <NoNaMeNo> takes like 1 second to open the "start menu" or when I alt+tab, it is horribly slow, or even move a window is not as smooth as it should be
[11:20] <Pazzie> bekks: is there anyway that i can send yo a screenshot?
[11:20] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: what do i do after i got the md5sum checksum hash on the iso?
[11:20] <Pazzie> bekks: so then you know what i mean
[11:20] <NoNaMeNo> the animation when opening the "start menu" isn't smooth either
[11:22] <Jonii> NoNaMeNo: dunno. If you figure it out, pls share, I have the same problem with my, very ancient, dual screen setup
[11:22] <NoNaMeNo> any way to deactivate the 3D stuff so I can check if that's the problem?
[11:22] <NoNaMeNo> Jonii: uhmm
[11:22] <Pazzie> bekks: if it is possible i created a channel for us so it talks easier #bekks
[11:22] <NoNaMeNo> Jonii: with Fedora it was a bit smoothier
[11:23] <NoNaMeNo> but I moved to Ubuntu because Xorg could take like 1-2gb ram in two days when idling
[11:23] <NoNaMeNo> pretty annoying
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> charles______  here's why http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | Michelle_
[11:24] <Guest14042> I add OpenDns severs to resolv.conf file, but nothing happens
[11:24] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: how do i compare the source and the iso?
[11:24] <charles______> thx MonkeyDust <3
[11:24] <NoNaMeNo> Jonii: what is your graphic card? and the resolutions you are using?
[11:24] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: i got the hash
[11:25] <Pazzie> bekks: ?
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: read the link ubottu gave
[11:25] <phoenixman> has anyone used "TestDisk" utility for recovery
[11:25] <phoenixman> need help here
[11:25] <bekks> Pazzie: I am still here.
[11:25] <FlowRiser> a great interactive doodle by google :D
[11:25] <Pazzie> bekks: i ccreated a channel for us, /j bekks, so it talks easier
[11:26] <phoenixman> i used testdisk to recover my partition table, now its showing me two ntfs partitions, but when i try to list the files its not listing nay
[11:26] <phoenixman> *any
[11:26] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: how do i compare the source and the iso?
[11:26] <bekks> Pazzie: I am not giving personal support, I am supporting in here. :)
[11:26] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: i mean the hash didn't match on the site
[11:27] <Pazzie> bekks: haha okay, but is there anyway that i can send you a screenshot so  you know what i mean
[11:27] <Pazzie> bekks: i did that the /dev/sda says its 10GB (that is correct because it was 5) /dev/sda2 (extend partition) i resize from 5 to 10GB but now i want to resize the /dev/sda5 and that dont work, i still have the lock symbol the only thing i can do is change the flag
[11:27] <Jonii> NoNaMeNo:  1680x1050 and 1280x1024, I don't even know my graphics card
[11:28] <NoNaMeNo> Jonii: lspci | grep VGA
[11:29] <Jonii> Radeon HD 4350
[11:29] <Michelle_> ubbottu: thanks for the link, the hash i got didn't match on the site you linked to me, do i need to redownload iso to get a correct hash?
[11:29] <Michelle_> ubottu*
[11:30] <hfic> !ubottu
[11:30] <Jonii> michelle, ubottu is a bot, not human
[11:30] <Pazzie> bekks: i now see that all of my other disks have the same lock symbol like i cannot do anything with it
[11:30] <Michelle_> Jonii: oh sorry o.o
[11:32] <bekks> Pazzie: Then upload a screenshot somewhere.
[11:32] <Michelle_> but if the hash on iso didn't match the site, do i need to redownload from the ubuntu site to get a correct hash?
[11:32] <bekks> Pazzie: and I already told you on how to resize the pv. You cant do that with gparted.
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: if the hash is different you need to redownload as it has become mangled in transit
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: that is why MD5 testing exists
[11:34] <Pazzie> bekks: http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/2185/screenshotoj.jpg
[11:34] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: okey :) i learned now what MD5 is hehe thanks i'll redownload and try bye
[11:34] <Michelle_> again
[11:35] <Konigsberg7> ugh whats the equiv to ls in the wndows cmd prompt
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: DIR
[11:37] <Konigsberg7> thanks
[11:37] <melo_> hello
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> Konigsberg7: if you use powershell, both ls and dir can be used
[11:40] <abraham_> Hello
[11:40] <abraham_> I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[11:41] <abraham_> How do I upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS?
[11:41] <dr_willis> same as you update normally
[11:41] <dr_willis> !version
[11:41] <abraham_> That was not working
[11:41] <dr_willis> if you have done a update/upgrade recently you most likely are using 12.04.1
[11:41] <dr_willis> sudo apt-get update       sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:41] <abraham_> From the terminal?
[11:42] <dr_willis> use any of the update tools...
[11:42] <dr_willis> terminalk is easiest to type. ;)
[11:42] <Onlyodin> ...or alt-f2
[11:43] <Dynamit> in apt-get you have a do-releasupgrade I'm pretty sure I have spell it some parts wrong
[11:43] <abraham_> Once again,not working
[11:43] <abraham_> I used the commands in the terminal
[11:43] <dr_willis> 'not working' tells us nothing..
[11:43] <noev> Hello there, could somebody help me ? I can't run a xx.bin file. I tried to write xx.bin in terminal or ./xx.bin but it says No such file or directory
[11:43] <dr_willis> what IS it doing exactly
[11:43] <OerHeks> abraham, wat gives " cat /etc/issue  "
[11:44] <dr_willis> noev:  check the spelling and make sure its executable
[11:44] <abraham_> 0 not blahblahblah upgraded
[11:44] <abraham_> sigh
[11:44] <dr_willis> abraham_:  and what does....
[11:44] <dr_willis> lsb_release -a      say about  the version?
[11:44] <Guest14042> In resolv.conf line "search home" what means ?
[11:44] <Pazzie> bekks: ?
[11:45] <abraham_> I have 12.04.1
[11:45] <abraham_> ops
[11:45] <abraham_> oops
[11:45] <dr_willis> i said earlier. :) if you update/upgraded.. then you got it...
[11:45] <OerHeks> abraham, we thought so.
[11:45] <tcstar> hey all having some ubuntu 12.04 issues (permissions perhaps? i dunno)...  I installed lamp-server using apt-get install lamp-server^ that works fine...  i installed curl:  apt-get install curl and apt-get install php5-curl...  however, when i run this in my /var/www folder:  curl http://getcomposer.org/installer | php it outputs this error:  Download failed: failed to open stream: Permission denied
[11:45] <abraham_> Slap in the face
[11:45] <tcstar> any ideas how to fix it?  it does it using sudo in front of the curl command too
[11:45] <Dynamit> what is the respond when you write uname -a?
[11:46] <noev> dr_willis: spelling is correct , and how do I make sure it's executable?
[11:46] <abraham_> 12.10 is nearly here
[11:46] <Dynamit> that question was for abraham_
[11:46] <dr_willis> !permissions | noev
[11:46] <abraham_> the beta 1 is here
[11:46] <dr_willis> noev:  chmod +x foo.bin
[11:46] <Dynamit> ;)
[11:47] <abraham_> Hello?
[11:47] <dr_willis> Yes?
[11:47] <bekks> abraham_: Please refer to #ubuntu+1 until 12.10 is officially released :)
[11:48] <abraham_> ok
[11:48] <dr_willis> was there another support question? ;)
[11:48] <Dynamit> abraham if you want the beta then count with solve problem as it's a Beta
[11:49] <Pazzie> anyone else here who can help me out with gparted?
[11:49] <Eagleman> Where are the webmin configguration files saved?
[11:49] <bekks> Pazzie: You cant use gparted to resize lvm pv.
[11:49] <zykotick9> !webmin | Eagleman
[11:49] <stefg> Hi Room! Running 12.04 i want to disable jack-sensing/speaker mute when inserting headphones. In 10.04 it worked that way (it wasn't a bug, it was a feature!), and i'd like 12.04 to behave the same way. after googling around i can't seem to find anything putting me on the right track. Is this an alsa or a pulse audio setting?
[11:49] <Eagleman> I want to restore from a previous backup
[11:49] <bekks> Pazzie: You have to do it manually.
[11:49] <Pazzie> bekks: okay.... how?
[11:49] <MonkeyDust> Eagleman  how did you backup?
[11:49] <kisom> Guys, how do I configure Ubuntu Server to access a WPA network with mschapv2? Google turns out nothing useful for me...
[11:49] <bazhang> Eagleman, webmin is not supported. get zentyal
[11:49] <Jonii> noev: to execute a file, you need to use full path of the file, for example, typing the full path /some/thing/foo.bin or go to the directory it is using cd command, then use ./foo.bin
[11:49] <Dynamit> I run webmin on 12.04.1 LTS and it's working for me
[11:50] <bekks> Pazzie: I already told you. You have to use a terminal.
[11:50] <MonkeyDust> kisom  there's also the channel #ubuntu-server
[11:50] <Dynamit> but I hade it before 12.04.1 LTS too
[11:50] <zykotick9> !wfm | Dynamit ;)
[11:50] <stefg> !sound
[11:50] <Pazzie> bekks: sorry i have missed that
[11:50] <noev> dr_willis: thanks for the info I aprecciate
[11:50] <kisom> MonkeyDust: Thanks, I'll check there
[11:50] <iceroot> !webmin | Dynamit
[11:50] <Dynamit> LoL ubottu have got bonkers
[11:50] <Dynamit> same text twice
[11:51] <Pazzie> bekks: can you tell me again? use the terminal from gparted? (or do i need to use the terminal from the server)
[11:51] <noev> Jonii: one more thing i can't remember the command which tells me my current path
[11:51] <quesada> after upgrating to kernel 3.2.20, the keyboard input just disappeared. both laptop and external keyboard. on a new session, it works. Ways to debug? workaround?
[11:51] <MonkeyDust> Dynamit  it's because ubottu is an automatic script
[11:51] <Dynamit> then it's a bad script
[11:51] <Eagleman> Any replacement for webmin?
[11:51] <dr_willis> noev:  its in the default promopt. or  'pwd'   print working directory
[11:51] <dr_willis> !ebox
[11:51] <stefg> !webmon
[11:51] <Dynamit> it should see what it have done for xx sec. atleast
[11:51] <stefg> !webmin
[11:51] <Pazzie> Eagleman: ebox
[11:51] <iceroot> quesada: there is no official 3.2.20
[11:52] <Jonii> noev: your terminal should show your current path as a prefix to the line your typing your commands to, using $ as a shorthand for your home directory
[11:52] <Eagleman> ebox is Zentyal?
[11:52] <dr_willis> Eagleman:  it is now..
[11:52] <iceroot> quesada: 3.2.0-30 is the current stable ubuntu kernel
[11:52] <Pazzie> Eagleman: yes, and its much better
[11:52] <Eagleman> and why?
[11:52] <Jonii> wait, ~ as shorthand for that
[11:53] <dr_willis> ~ = /home/yourusername
[11:54] <Eagleman> Why is zentyal better than webmin?
[11:54] <zykotick9> Jonii: $ at the prompt means you are a regular users, while # means root (something you shouldn't see in ubuntu)
[11:55] <Jonii> zykotick9: yeah
[11:55] <MonkeyDust> Eagleman  best way to find out, is by using it
[11:55] <iceroot> Eagleman: because webmin is not able to handle ubuntu package configuration
[11:55] <Eagleman> well i dont have an option so i will :P
[11:55] <iceroot> Eagleman: but the best is ssh + the editor of your choice + your brain instead of a webgui to manage a server
[11:55] <zykotick9> iceroot: +1
[11:56] <noev> Jonnii: /home/user/Downloads/xx.bin tells me no such file or directory am I still not getting it ?
[11:56] <dr_willis> #1 reson zentyal is better then webmin.. its officialy supported here.
[11:56] <Eagleman> iceroot i know how to use all of that
[11:56] <iceroot> Eagleman: then use ssh + editor and dont use the webgui
[11:56] <Dynamit> iceroot: 1+ but some are too lazy or have others that need to be able to configure there part
[11:56] <hfic> how do I list groups?
[11:56] <Eagleman> it is usefull to have in some situations
[11:56] <iceroot> Dynamit: others?
[11:56] <dr_willis> noev:  cd to the directory, ls -l xx.bin and look at the ownership/permissions, then file xx.bin and see what kind of file it is.
[11:56] <jrib> hfic: groups your user is in or all groups?
[11:56] <tomreyn> hfic: getent group
[11:56] <iceroot> Dynamit: like people hoe dont know what they are doing?
[11:57] <iceroot> Dynamit: i guess you see the mistake
[11:57] <hfic> jrib, both if you gottem
[11:57] <Eagleman> Well if we all know everything there would not be a #ubuntu channel...
[11:57] <jrib> hfic: tomreyn's command for all groups.  Just « groups » for groups your user is in
[11:57] <Dynamit> iceroot: like people that have not so big computer habbit, let's say you hosts webserver for others to
[11:58] <iceroot> Dynamit: never ever in your whole life manage a public server if you dont know what you are doing
[11:58] <zykotick9> noev: you might want to see if it's a 32bit binary on a 64bit OS.  "file xx.bin" and check for 32bit elf, and use "uname -m" to see if you are running 64bit OS - it could also give you the "no such" error
[11:58] <beboj> guys can you recommend some internal pci e modem card with 4g lte under ubuntu ???
[11:58] <iceroot> Dynamit: that should only people do which know what they are doing and they dont need a webgui
[11:58] <Eagleman> You will never leaarn it if you never do it...
[11:58] <Dynamit> not the host
[11:58] <Dynamit> baaa
[11:58] <iceroot> Eagleman: but please dont learn on a public server
[11:58] <Dynamit> the user to make it easy for them
[11:59] <Eagleman> iceroot its only a home server
[11:59] <iceroot> Eagleman: then everything is fine
[11:59] <Eagleman> just testing ans learning stuff
[11:59] <Eagleman> and
[11:59] <Eagleman> And a webgui is the last thing in my documentation
[11:59] <Pikmin> so guys, i got this test machine running ubuntu server, libvirt and win2008, want to bridge the network but need to clarify something
[11:59] <Eagleman> i''ve configured everything using VI and SSH till now
[12:00] <noev> zykotick9:  ELF 32-bit LSB executable i'm running a 64bit machine
[12:00] <stefg> Any alsa/audio guru able to tell me how to get sound of headphones and speakers at the same time? My aplay -L output : http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192555/
[12:00] <iceroot> Eagleman: sounds good, its a good way to learn the system
[12:00] <dr_willis> noev:  i think you found the issue
[12:01] <Eagleman> I am planning to run it on esxi thats why i am reconfiguring everything on vmware now, so i can switch easily to esxi
[12:01] <zykotick9> noev: 64bit machine or 64bit os - they aren't the same thing.  i can't really help further I'm affraid, i don't know how multiarch works... best of luck.
[12:01] <mbutubuntu> hey guys I've a problem with ath9k_htc driver... loading it in the kernel returns: ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_9271.fw download failed (even If I've that bin in /lib/firmware)
[12:01] <noev> dr_willis: yea, thanks for your help guys
[12:02] <Eagleman> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal seems oputdated
[12:02] <noev> zykotick9: yea i meant 64bit OS, anyways thanks for the help :)
[12:02] <mathi> hi
[12:02] <Eagleman> i dont have to use the Universe repository
[12:03] <mathi> I would like the menu to be alwyas visible on the left, instead, when i'm not hovering it, after a second it hides
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> !info zentyal
[12:03] <BluesKaj> Hey All
[12:04] <tomreyn> mathi: are you referring to the unity shell?
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> !info ebox
[12:04] <mathi> tomreyn, to the interface
[12:04] <mathi> tomreyn, on the left I have my opened applications
[12:04] <tomreyn> mathi: i don't have it running here now but you should be able to set this up in preferences -> appearance
[12:04] <Eagleman> hmm
[12:05] <Eagleman> ebox was included 133 packages and was around 100mb large
[12:05] <Eagleman> was included...
[12:05] <mathi> tomreyn, right. strange, auto-hide was already off, I had to put on and off again to make it off :|
[12:06] <tomreyn> Eagleman: as the name says, 'ebox' is a transition package.
[12:06] <tomreyn> mathi: that's special. normally in IT, it's the other way around ;-)
[12:06] <zaggynl> hi, ubuntu 12.04 gets stuck at boot, hub 2-1 port 2 disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling has shown up twice now, any clues what's happening?
[12:07] <mathi> tomreyn, :)) I also thinks these icons are too big, do you know how to make them smaller??
[12:07] <Eagleman> During the installation you will be asked to supply a password for the ebox user. After installing eBox the web interface can be accessed from: https://yourserver/ebox.
[12:07] <Eagleman> That did not happen
[12:08] <MrNaz> if i have a script that contains a sequence of commands, all of which require sudo privs, is there a way to ensure that the whole script gets sudo and i wont get the pass prompt againm, even if the script takes a long time to execute?
[12:08] <mathi> I googled, seems i need to isntall an application
[12:08] <tomreyn> zaggynl: there's something wrong with a USB device you have attached. unplug them one by one (or all for startters, then re-plug them one by one and reboot each time) to single out the problematic device.
[12:08] <tomreyn> zaggynl: this could be due to lack of power on the USB hub you have there.
[12:08] <jrib> MrNaz: run: sudo the_script    I suppose
[12:09] <tomreyn> mathi: personally i consider the unity interface to be a fatal mistake, so i haven't been using it lately and don't know much about whether such options are now available. they wer enot on the first release (unless when you edited configuration files/ databases).
[12:10] <zaggynl> thanks tomreyn
[12:10] <zaggynl> its a wireless usb mouse plug
[12:10] <mathi> tomreyn, what are you using then?
[12:10] <zaggynl> it does work a second boot
[12:10] <rymate1234> I like unity IMO
[12:10] <tomreyn> mathi: xubuntu, so xfwm and xfce
[12:10] <rymate1234> However I still prefer MATE (fork fork of gnome 2)
[12:11] <mathi> tomreyn, ah, I didn't know I could isntall other interfaces :(((((, I can still switch ???
[12:11] <tomreyn> zaggynl: do you have an usb extender or a monitor which works as a usb hub?
[12:11] <rymate1234> mathi, you can install them from the ubuntu software centre, then choose it at logj by clicking the cog
[12:12] <tomreyn> mathi: yes you can always switch. you can also install multiple and switch between them by logging off and on again
[12:12] <rymate1234> *login
[12:12] <mathi> thnk you i'll try:)
[12:12] <tomreyn> mathi: xubuntu-desktop would be the package to install if you want the xubuntu interface in addition to unity
[12:12] <bekks> Pazzie: You have to start a livecd, and use a terminal from the livecd. Before, you have to get familiar with the commands pvresize, vgextend, lvresize, and the command to resize your filesystem. AND you have to create a complete backup of your computer.
[12:13] <leotr> hi! i have a problem. mouse poiter doesn't react immediately after i move mouse (i have a lag and it's not comfortable), the same is about keyboard - when i start typing fast some letters are not typed :(
[12:13] <mathi> tomreyn, is it more light ? cause unity is a bit slow
[12:13] <tomreyn> yes mathi. if unity is slow then unity2d but you like it generally then unity2d would be a good compromise
[12:14] <Eagleman> I cant even login in ebox
[12:14] <tomreyn> leotr: how are they powered?
[12:14] <Eagleman> using the username ebox and changed his password with passwd
[12:14] <leotr> tomreyn: both are usb
[12:14] <tomreyn> leotr: so not wireless?
[12:15] <tomreyn> leotr: i.e. there are no batteires in your mouse or keyboard?
[12:15] <leotr> tomreyn: mouse is wireless but i'm sure battery is ok, because this problem started after i installed new videocard geforce 210
[12:16] <leotr> before it i had integrated ati videocard
[12:17] <tomreyn> leotr: it's good you provided this additional information. so you may have a driver issue related to the geforce 210
[12:17] <hfic> syslog displays kernel: [14352.557450] init: vsftpd respawning too fast, stopped . It was working fine as a fresh install.. now I get this error ........aaagain
[12:17] <tomreyn> leotr: check "dmesg | tail" and /var/log/messages for error messages
[12:18] <leotr> tomreyn, just a moment
[12:18] <tomreyn> leotr: correction: check "dmesg | tail" and /var/log/syslog for error messages
[12:19] <Costeelation> guys
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> hfic: is there a possibility to use sftp?
[12:19] <Costeelation> what is the command for reinstall grub2? :)
[12:19] <Pazzie> bekks: how can i access my local volume through the live cd?
[12:19] <Costeelation> a recheck
[12:19] <tomreyn> hfic: vsftpd is having trouble to start. try starting it manually, running it in the foreground, and inspect its log files.
[12:20] <Pazzie> bekks: i opend the terminal, but it seems to be the filesystem from the live cd
[12:20] <hfic> ActionParsnip, never tried that program
[12:20] <tomreyn> Pazzie: by "local volume" you mean existing partitions on your hard disk drive?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> Costeelation: sudo apt-get --reinstall grub-common grub-pc grub2-common
[12:20] <Pazzie> tomreyn: yes
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> hfic: its secure, nautilus can connect to it easily as well
[12:20] <SpecialEd> Does anyone know hot to force Ubuntu 12.04 from localtime to UTC using terminal?
[12:21] <hfic> tomreyn, what do you mean manually? I'm doing sudo service vsftpd restart.
[12:21] <tomreyn> Pazzie: how were those partitions created? on ubuntu?
[12:21] <SpecialEd> its a vps
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> hfic: its especially good if you want access over WAN as it is secure unlike FTP
[12:21] <BluesKaj> !tzdata  | SpecialEd
[12:22] <hfic> ActionParsnip, Is it a protocol as in secure ftp , or is it actually a ftp server?
[12:22] <Pazzie> tomreyn: the first disk i created with ubuntu and the other disks i partitioned with webmin
[12:22] <Costeelation> ActionParsnip, this command reinstall grub in my actual partition?
[12:22] <tomreyn> hfic: i'm suggesting that you read "man vsftpd" and "which vsftpd" and possibly "vsftpd --help" and then run vsftpd bypassing the init scripts
[12:22] <leotr> tomreyn: http://dpaste.com/798159/ here is my dmesg. there is something related to nvidia.
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> hfic: if you install openssh-server you get an SFTP server by default. It is secure ftp
[12:22] <BluesKaj> !info tzdata
[12:22] <Eagleman> During the installation you will be asked to supply a password for the ebox user. After installing eBox the web interface can be accessed from: https://yourserver/ebox.
[12:22] <Eagleman> I cant even login in ebox
[12:22] <Pazzie> tomreyn: here is the screenshot: http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/2185/screenshotoj.jpg
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> Costeelation: it will pull in the grub packages and rerun update-grub
[12:22] <Eagleman> using the username ebox and changed his password with passwd
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> Costeelation: if you need to install grub to the MBR then it won't do that afaik
[12:23] <AminosAmigos> !info
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> Costeelation: you can do that with: sudo grub-install /dev/sda      assumin /dev/sda is the bootable HDD
[12:24] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: hi again, sorry if i'm annoying but i redownloaded iso and it's still doesn't match the hash on the site? the hash i get is MD5 (ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso) = 06472ddf11382c8da1f32e9487435c3d
[12:24] <zykotick9> Michelle_: consider using a torrent, it has error correction
[12:24] <Costeelation> ActionParsnip, i install grub in sda5, then sudo grub-install /dev/sda5 is correct?
[12:25] <Costeelation> sda5 is a partition into the hdd
[12:25] <CQWW> Arm
[12:25] <CQWW> ?
[12:25] <Pazzie> tomreyn: are you still here?
[12:25] <Michelle_> zykotick9: okey thanks
[12:26] <leotr> tomreyn, http://dpaste.com/798160/ this is my syslog | grep nv
[12:26] <bekks> Pazzie: Again: you CANNOT resize LVM using gparted.
[12:26] <tomreyn> Pazzie: /dev/sda5 is an lvm physical volume. you will need to setup lvm, start with lvmdiskscan, it should also report it is a physical volume for lvm. then use pvs, vgs, lvs
[12:26] <tomreyn> bekks: is this what Pazzie's trying to do?
[12:27] <Pazzie> bekks: yes i know that now, i was just giving tomreyn  the information
[12:27] <oal> I just ran "chsh -s /bin/zsh" to change my shell to zsh, but when I open a new terminal, I still get the old default. Do I have to reboot?
[12:27] <Pazzie> tomreyn: i want to resize my "root" partition and extend it with 5GB but i have know idea how
[12:27] <tomreyn> leotr: this looks perfectly normal. which driver are you using?
[12:27] <dr_willis> oal:  perhaps log out completely
[12:28] <oal> dr_willis: ok, will try
[12:28] <Pazzie> tomreyn: bekks helped me a bit, but i am stuck now
[12:28] <zaggynl> how bad of an idea was it to set raid 10 rebuild rate to 300000K/sec
[12:28] <compdoc> BluesKaj, but what do you do with tzdata?
[12:28] <bekks> tomreyn: Exactly.
[12:29] <bekks> Pazzie: You were given all commands you have to use, and the information taht you have to create a backup before. I doubt you did it until now :)
[12:29] <oal> dr_willis: perfect, that worked
[12:29] <unkrr> hey there is a problem i m facing with loopback adapter and vmware
[12:30] <unkrr> i m unable to bridge my loopback adapter with the vmware any suggestions??
[12:30] <jakeR333> is there caching function in ubuntu? like when you start a program it will cache some of it in the PC memory ?
[12:30] <tomreyn> Pazzie: then i suggest you either invest some hours on reading up on what LVM is and how it works as an additional storage device layer, and look into how resiing file systems works manually. or, probably your better option since it will be faster and less error prone,  make a backup and reinstall.
[12:30] <zykotick9> !atemyram | jakeR333 YES
[12:30] <dr_willis> jakeR333:  it does that automatically yes
[12:30] <bekks> unkrr: It is nonsense to bridge the loopback adapter :)
[12:30] <Pazzie> bekks: i dont need to created a backup, if the system is broke i simply reinstall the system ;) but since a reinstall is the easy solution
[12:31] <unkrr> bekks i need it to do
[12:31] <Eagleman> How do i login in ebox?
[12:31] <leotr> tomreyn: how can i exactly find out info on which driver is used?
[12:31] <unkrr> bekks: if u have the solution plz let me know
[12:31] <OerHeks> !ebox
[12:31] <Eagleman> Wont work
[12:32] <Psi-Jack> Eagleman: Yes it does.
[12:32] <jakeR333> dr_willis a fresh ubuntu start is 120MB.. after a day of use i close all programs and the RAM consumption is 160MB
[12:32] <bekks> unkrr: Why would you need that - the loopback interface will not provide any communication between your host and guest.
[12:32] <leotr> tomreyn, btw i think that acceleration works on my computer because window animations are smooth
[12:32] <dr_willis> jakeR333:  so?
[12:32] <Eagleman> During the installation you will be asked to supply a password for the ebox user.
[12:32] <Eagleman> did not happen
[12:32] <jakeR333> so i want to understand what's causing this
[12:32] <tomreyn> leotr: sorry, should have told you. based on the output on the pastebin you are using a proprietary driver, i.e. probably fglrx. i suggest you use the open source nouveau driver for now just to see whether it fixes the issues with the input device latency.
[12:33] <Psi-Jack> Eagleman: It uses regular user accounts., So, yes, yes it does work.
[12:33] <dr_willis> zentyal install here asked for about 4 differnt passwords, and other settings
[12:33] <jakeR333> is it a memory leadk or a features in ubuntu.. i had to patch metacity with unoffical update because it kept taking memory up to 190MB
[12:33] <dr_willis> but that was for things like ldap, and ddclient ;)
[12:33] <BluesKaj> compdoc, tzdata :
[12:33] <BluesKaj> This package contains data required for the implementation of standard local time for many representative locations around the globe. It is updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to time zone boundaries, UTC offsets, and daylight-saving rules.
[12:33] <jakeR333> now after i patched it it never go above 3MB
[12:33] <tomreyn> leotr: you can switch to nouveau by running: jockey-gtk
[12:33] <unkrr> bekks: i need it for the NETWORKING process  can't explain it to you in words
[12:33] <Eagleman> Well during  apt-get install ebox nothing was asked, only if i wanted to proceed
[12:33] <bekks> unkrr: vmware never needed things like that. :)
[12:34] <leotr> tomreyn: i thought that proprietary is faster, anyway i don't play games so i don't need 3d much ^) will try nouveau
[12:34] <Psi-Jack> Eagleman: See #zentyal for support then.
[12:34] <unkrr> bekks: it happens in windows for your information
[12:34] <tomreyn> leotr: there, you just need to disable the nvida drivers, then reboot (logging out and in again _may_ also be sufficient)
[12:34] <unkrr> bekks: if you know the solution plz tell otherwise no problem
[12:34] <tomreyn> leotr: this is just to find out whether it's a hardware or driver (software) issue.
[12:34] <zykotick9> tomreyn: fyi to disable nvidia, a reboot WOULD be required
[12:35] <leotr> tomreyn: ok, thanks, will try it
[12:35] <tomreyn> zykotick9: doesn't X get restarted and unload the module when you log off?
[12:35] <zykotick9> tomreyn: kernel drivers certainly are not
[12:35] <dr_willis> tomreyn:  kernel modules. no
[12:35] <Psi-Jack> tomreyn: nvidia uses both a kernel module and X driver.
[12:35] <Pazzie> bekks: thnx for your help, but i will reinstall the system i think that will be quicker ;) and i can configure it better ;)
[12:36] <tomreyn> alright :)
[12:36] <Michelle_> zykotick9: i got same hash when i downloaded via torrent "MD5 (ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso) = 06472ddf11382c8da1f32e9487435c3d"
[12:36] <Pazzie> tomreyn: thnx too
[12:36] <Eagleman> I am logged in now but it is not showing much information
[12:36] <Pazzie> Eagleman: you have to install modules
[12:37] <leotr> tomreyn, sorry i have 2 options in jockey, both are proprietary
[12:37] <tomreyn> leotr: which of them is active (green) already?
[12:37] <zykotick9> Michelle_: i don't see sums for 12.04.1 on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes - what are you comparing against?
[12:37] <leotr> tomreyn: current-updates
[12:38] <tomreyn> leotr: so this is loaded, unlaod it
[12:38] <Michelle_> zykotick9: the iso file "ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso"
[12:38] <zykotick9> Michelle_: but we need to know what the MD5 is suppose to be...
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: looks good
[12:38] <leotr> the second one is just "current" but also proprietary
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: just use the web and search for the hash:  https://duckduckgo.com/?q=06472ddf11382c8da1f32e9487435c3d

[12:39] <leotr> lief:go to #math
[12:40] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: so it should work now and not ending up with the "loading /casper/vmlinuz?
[12:40] <AminosAmigos> ActionParsnip@ what is the use of .local/share ?
[12:40] <tomreyn> leotr: my suggestion was to uninstall those
[12:40] <leotr> tomreyn, ah, ok
[12:41] <tomreyn> leotr: i.e. the goal would be to not have a green dot there
[12:41] <lief> k will try #math
[12:41] <harry_> hi
[12:41] <tomreyn> leotr: then if that works well you can try installing the non "updates" one and see whether this works, too.
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: could use MD5 to test the data on the USB stick, it could be bad. You could burn the ISO to a CD as SLOWLY as possible and boot that
[12:42] <leotr> tomreyn, ok rebooting
[12:42] <surlogics> HELP; is there a way to recover NTFS partition where I might have formatted in to ext3 with mke2fs,I installed ubuntu by wubi in windows7 but cant boot into them; it shows Filesystem type unknown; partition type 0x7
[12:43] <Psi-Jack> surlogics: No.
[12:43] <surlogics> what can I do now; please
[12:43] <dr_willis> wubi wouldent format a whole partition as far as i know
[12:44] <unkr> can anyone tell me how can i create loopback adapter like lo0 ,lo1 ??? not tap0
[12:44] <dr_willis> it makes a ext3 'disk in a file' on the windows drive
[12:44] <surlogics> I have format the 14G sda2
[12:45] <tomreyn> unkr: losetup. but why would you want to?
[12:45] <zykotick9> unkr: do you understand what loopback is?  it's basically useless.
[12:45] <surlogics> I didnt lost any data; but just cant boot into the system. I have installed Mandriva via a disk and can view my files in it
[12:45] <morgan> is there something similar to 'ExtractNow' for ubuntu?
[12:45] <dr_willis> http://askubuntu.com/search?q=recover+ntfs+formated+as+ext
[12:46] <Psi-Jack> morgan: No idea what "ExtractNow" is. Maybe you should describe what it is you are looking for, more specifically.
[12:46] <bekks> unkr: What have you done to your ubuntuso there is no loopback adapter anymorE?
[12:46] <unkr> tomreyn: zykotick9 ya i know i will be using adapter with GNS (a networking apps)
[12:46] <unkr> bekks: i want more
[12:46] <surlogics> Im not sure what is lost,perhaps bootup files. So is there anything I can do to make it work again thanks
[12:47] <morgan> Psi-Jack, basically, I'd like to be able to drag/drop a folder or right click the folder, and hit extract, and it will search for all archives in that folder and extract them. ie a folder that has an entire season of a tv show
[12:47]  * Psi-Jack sighs.
[12:47] <Psi-Jack> morgan: Filesystems do not have folders. Laundry rooms have folders. Filesystems have directories.
[12:47] <bekks> unkr: you dont need more. Never. For nothing. They are basically useless.
[12:47] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: i got a cd-r 700mb and the iso is 728mb, can i still burn to it?
[12:47] <dr_willis> surlogics:  if you trashed the windows 'boot' partition. I would ask in #windows about how to recvover it.
[12:47] <Psi-Jack> morgan: I also will not help someone that's obviously involved in piracy. Sorry.
[12:47] <bekks> unkr: Use a host-only adapter if you need a host-guest-communication.
[12:47] <dr_willis> surlogics:  i would be backing up inporntant data now however...
[12:47] <cfhowlett> surlogics: yep..sounds like a boot recovery issue.
[12:48] <leotr> tomreyn, rebooted, both are grey now. Still have the issue
[12:48] <unkr> bekks: let it go i have the use of
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: should be ok afaik
[12:48] <Eagleman> How do i revert:  apt-get install -y python-software-properties && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:zentyal/2.2 && sudo apt-get update  ?
[12:48] <dr_willis> !ppa-purge
[12:48] <alex_> Morgan: You cud use something like $ unzip /dir/*.zip
[12:48] <unkr> bekks: pm
[12:48] <unkr> ??
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: if you install ppa-purge  you can remove PPAs
[12:48] <bekks> unkr: I am supporting in here only :)
[12:48] <tuffgong> hi all
[12:49] <dr_willis> morgan:  or  unzip '*.zip'
[12:49] <unkr> bekks: no problem thnx for your help
[12:49] <dr_willis> unzip *.zip causes the shell to expand the *  using the '*.zip' tells unzip to use the wildcard
[12:50] <tomreyn> leotr: okay that's good to know. now chances are your new video card is not seated correctly or is broken (as in hardware). there could be other reasons, such as a bios bug (i.e. bios update needed) or something else. we can try to narrow it down further, but this will involve working on the shell now. is this ok with you?
[12:51] <morgan> they are .rar not zip D:
[12:51] <surlogics> I had backed up my data, and I just spoiled a small partition, I hope there is a way to format the spoiled partion back to normal again, but I do not know what it should contain
[12:52] <Eagleman> how do i complete remove a package
[12:52] <dr_willis> surlogics:  if it was the windows boot partiton, then there should be ways from a windows cd to repair/remake it.
[12:52] <Guest39619> can any help me out to con figure epson laser jet cx17nf all in one in ubuntu 12.04

[12:53] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: i couldn't burn a 726mb iso to cd, but can i use the 32-bit os on 64-bit harddrive?
[12:53] <Michelle_> hardware*
[12:54] <tomreyn> leotr: pretty surely reinstalling ubuntu won't do any good there unless you have an inconsistent system because you installed non-supported and badly packaged or non-packaged software.
[12:54] <Guest39619> beeks ubottu @ i have already done that but i did not got the solution
[12:54] <Guest39619> how to install this model of printer
[12:54] <tomreyn> leotr: please install this package: pastebinit
[12:55] <zorgborg> can anyone help me figure out how to use 7z/7zr/7za to just extract a .exe file?
[12:55] <bekks> Guest39619: Please be patient and dont repeat your issue in a 50s delay :)
[12:55] <tomreyn> leotr: (sudo apt-get install pastebinit). this package allows you to sned output form a terminal right ontp a pastebin, a web page which you can post text to.
[12:55] <Michelle_> hey guys, do you know if i can use 32-bit os on a 64-bit hardware?
[12:56] <ryu39619> bekks@ you have the solution for my query
[12:56] <leotr> tomreyn, ok, i'm doing it.
[12:56] <cfhowlett> Michelle_: yes you can
[12:56] <Michelle_> ok
[12:56] <tomreyn> !pastebinit | leotr
[12:56] <Michelle_> :)
[12:56] <leotr> tomreyn, done
[12:56] <Sosuke593> Hello
[12:56] <surlogics> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192647/
[12:56] <cfhowlett> Sosuke593: greetings
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: there are no 64bit hard drives
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: they don't have architectures
[12:57] <surlogics> Sorry I am not familiar with the system and the keyboard was not set correctly
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: you can use 32bit OS on a 64bit CPU
[12:57] <bekks> ryu39619: No. I just proposed to be more patient.
[12:57] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: so i don't need to worry about it?
[12:57] <tomreyn> leotr: okay now please do this: lsmod | pastebinit; lspci -knnv | grep -A 10 VGA | pastebinit
[12:58] <surlogics> I do not have a windows boot disk at hand, can I use some tools
[12:58] <tomreyn> leotr: please post the URLs you'll be given here
[12:58] <cfhowlett> surlogics: pretty sure windows will need an MBR partition table - which tops out at 4 primary parts.  You've got 9.  Expect unforeseen consequences.
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> Michelle_: if you are just using the OS to web browse and chat etc you wil be fine with 32bit
[12:58] <cfhowlett> surlogics: ask in #windows.  Nothing we can do with it here.
[12:58] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: okey
[12:58] <ryu39619> any one has the solution of my query
[12:58] <surlogics> ok, thank you
[12:58] <leotr> tomreyn: 1) http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192649/
[12:58] <Michelle_> ActionParsnip: but it doesn't damage/brick or something right?

[13:01] <Laserebeak> hello cfhowlett
[13:01] <quesada> iceroot: I meant that kernel
[13:01] <tomreyn> leotr: you're still running the (closed source) nvidia driver. let's try to get nouveau working.
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> ryu39619: what is the issue please? I can't find your question
[13:02] <quesada> why would I stop having keyboard input?
[13:02] <cfhowlett> Laserebeak: sorry, sound issues are not my thing, but your question has been noted...
[13:02] <tomreyn> leotr: can you verify you have no green dots in jockey-gtk ?
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> quesada: keyuboard module unoladed could be one reason
[13:02] <leotr> tomreyn, just a moment
[13:02] <quesada> ActionParsnip: how do I check that?
[13:02] <Laserebeak> cfhowlett: thanks for your concern. is there a place more suited for getting help with this issue?
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> quesada: run:  lsmod   in a terminal
[13:03] <ryu39619> ActionParsnip@can any help me out to con figure epson laser jet cx17nf all in one in ubuntu 12.04
[13:03] <quesada> ActionParsnip: can't. No keyboard :)
[13:03] <cfhowlett> Laserebeak: possibly #ubuntustudio for the sound issue but keep checking back here.
[13:03] <leotr> tomreyn, yes, both of them are grey
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> ryu39619: did you check the open printing website?
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> quesada: you can do it
[13:03] <Laserebeak> cfhowlett: thanks
[13:03] <ryu39619> ActionParsnip@i have check it
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> quesada: you just need onboard, you can type with the mouse
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> ryu39619: and...?
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> ryu39619: is it know to work..not work..?
[13:04] <quesada> ActionParsnip: which module am I looking for?
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> quesada: how does the keyboard connect to the system?
[13:05] <quesada> ActionParsnip: usb
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> quesada: usbhid
[13:05] <quesada> but it's a lappy, have normal kb on it too
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> quesada: you could always unload then reload the module
[13:05] <quesada> mouse works
[13:05] <tomreyn> leotr: do you have a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[13:05] <quesada> ActionParsnip: usb mouse
[13:06] <tomreyn> leotr: run this command in a terminal to find out: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:06] <ryu39619> ActionParsnipit @does support linx
[13:06] <ryu39619> i have aleady search in the url
[13:07] <tomreyn> leotr: if it says "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" instead of returning an error message then do this: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig
[13:07] <leotr> tomreyn, no, there is no xorg.cof
[13:07] <leotr> conf*
[13:07] <tomreyn> leotr: ok. you did reboot after you removed all the drivers from jockey-gtk, right?
[13:08] <leotr> tomreyn: i tried to switch to second proprietary driver but after reboot both of them became grey
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> quesada: if it works, it can be used
[13:08] <quesada> ActionParsnip: I mean it can't be usb
[13:09] <Sicp> is it easy to setup my own image of Ubuntu?
[13:09] <Sicp> with all of my favorite packages installed and everything (ppa's, etc..)?
[13:09] <tomreyn> leotr: before we started to work on this, did you download and install the nvidia drivers from some website?
[13:10] <leotr> tomreyn: no, i didn't
[13:10] <cfhowlett> !rmastersys|Sicp
[13:10] <cfhowlett> Sicp: yes.  rmastersys is the package you want IIRC
[13:10] <quesada> ActionParsnip: keyboard works on TTY
[13:10] <quesada> so it must be something x related
[13:11] <quesada> I'm using awesomewm
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> quesada: ahh, nice catch
[13:11] <liquidjamm> can anyone help troubleshoot chrooting?
[13:11] <quesada> but I've never seen it dropping keyboard input
[13:12] <tomreyn> leotr: ok, please run: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current
[13:12] <quesada> ActionParsnip: any idea how to continue debugging?
[13:12] <quesada> I could restart X
[13:12] <excervo> liquidjamn, what is your concern in chroot?
[13:12] <tomreyn> leotr: then run: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current-updates
[13:12] <quesada> but if this happens again, I'll be very very concerned
[13:13] <leotr> ok
[13:13] <leotr> doing it
[13:13] <quesada> to the point of dropping ubuntu, maybe linux, forever

[13:13] <abraham__> How do you turn on Compiz Fusion on Ubuntu 12.04.1
[13:14] <quesada> ActionParsnip: it also works on lightdm
[13:14] <quesada> could be the wm
[13:14] <abraham__> Hello?
[13:15] <abraham__> How do you turn on Compiz Fusion on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS?
[13:15] <leotr> tomreyn: did it. Should i reboot now?
[13:15] <liquidjamm> excervo, I followed http://library.linode.com/security/sftp-jails but daemon fails to come up after changes
[13:15] <tomreyn> !patience | abraham__
[13:15] <dedleg> compiz --replace
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> quesada: try the 2D version of Unity
[13:15] <quesada> I'm using kde + awesomewm
[13:15] <quesada> :)
[13:16] <excervo> liquidjamn, let me check
[13:16] <tomreyn> leotr: not just yet. please do this first: dpkg -l nvidia\* | pastebinit
[13:16] <liquidjamm> respawining then dies according to syslog
[13:16] <quesada> ubuntu, even in a LTS release, is less stable than I wish for my daily computing
[13:17] <leotr> tomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192673/
[13:17] <quesada> how are we going to recommend this OS to anyone? it drops keyboard support. Things like this happen to me monthy
[13:17] <tomreyn> quesada: have you tried debian stable then? might be an option.
[13:18] <quesada> tomreyn: might be my only opton
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> quesada  #ubuntu-offtopic for discussions, please
[13:19] <leotr> quesada, take it easy, everything's gonna be allright
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> never had an issue

[13:20] <freddddiiiiii> I am having a simple issue. I have made the top Unity bar 100% transparent, all good, but when the menu fades out, it will appear as black text behind it: http://ompldr.org/vZmV1aQ/ubuntu-black-text-issue-on-full-transparancy.png
[13:20] <MonkeyDust> freddddiiiiii  use myUnity
[13:20] <freddddiiiiii> MonkeyDust, what setting do I need to adjust?
[13:20] <i7c> will it ever be fixed that auto-completion (tab) does not work after sudo etc... really annoying bug
[13:20] <freddddiiiiii> I just tried MyUnity and I could not find anything to resolve it.
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> freddddiiiiii  explore it a bit, i don't like/use unity myself
[13:21] <freddddiiiiii> MonkeyDust, no option in there, already did.
[13:21] <freddddiiiiii> MonkeyDust, what do you use, shell?
[13:21] <cyberusr> When is ubuntu 12.10 be out?
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> MonkeyDust: tried ubuntu-tweak from PPA
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> freddddiiiiii  ubuntu classic, no effects
[13:21] <i7c> cyberusr: middle/end of october
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> cyberusr: look at the version number
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> cyberusr: and think :)
[13:21] <cyberusr> Thanks!
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> cyberusr: the version numbers are extremely logical

[13:22] <cyberusr> Hehe
[13:22] <Darkenvy> This is less related to flash based videos like youtube (although still applies)
[13:22] <blackshirt> Try to install flashplugin-nonfree
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'      Thanks
[13:22] <leotr> tomreyn, sorry, some output is in russian :(
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> cyberusr: lets you know when they are out as well as when they are EOL
[13:23] <tomreyn> leotr: it'll be fine
[13:23] <tomreyn> leotr: don't try to translate it
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> cyberusr: rather than just naming them ranndom stuff like other OSes
[13:23] <cyberusr> Thanks !
[13:23] <freddddiiiiii> I am having a simple issue. I have made the top Unity bar 100% transparent, all good, but when the menu fades out, it will appear as black text behind it: http://ompldr.org/vZmV1aQ/ubuntu-black-text-issue-on-full-transparancy.png

[13:23] <Darkenvy> http://pastebin.com/DvScbTsq
[13:24] <Darkenvy> ActionParsnip ^
[13:24] <tomreyn> leotr: ok, so do this: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-settings nvidia-settings-updates nvidia-common
[13:24] <tomreyn> leotr: then reboot
[13:24] <bender> Hello, I have a little problem. I am useing a system rescue cd and would like to reinstall the grub on my ubuntu 12.04. Is there any way to do that? I don-t have a livecd
[13:25] <Darkenvy> blackshirt: "flashplugin-installer is already the newest version."
[13:25] <leotr> tomreyn, ok, doing it, rebooting and will come back
[13:25] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: sudo apt-get purge browser-plugin-gnash
[13:26] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: then restart your web browser
[13:26] <Darkenvy> so Im running two flash plugins at ocne?
[13:26] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: another option is to keep it as it is now and to disable the gnash plugin in your web browser (if it allows you to, firefox does)
[13:27] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: you can only be using one plugin for a single mime type at once, but you currently have two handlers for flash content installed
[13:27] <Darkenvy> That did not help. Purging Gnash
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> bender: sure
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> bender: omgubuntu has a gui called sticking it to grub
[13:28] <blackshirt> darkenvy, flashplugin-nonfree
[13:28] <blackshirt> The nonfree one
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: let me review
[13:29] <Darkenvy> I already have that installed as it is blackshirt
[13:29] <freddddiiiiii> I am having a simple issue. I have made the top Unity bar 100% transparent, all good, but when the menu fades out, it will appear as black text behind it: http://ompldr.org/vZmV1aQ/ubuntu-black-text-issue-on-full-transparancy.png

[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: sudo apt-get --purge remove browser-plugin-gnash flashplugin-installer gnash gnash-common
[13:29] <sliddjur> If I do a ls -all
[13:29] <NeuhNeuh> I want to enable Compiz on XFCE4, but many solutions offer by Google (and doc ubuntu website) don't work :/
[13:29] <sliddjur> how do i know if its a file or folder?
[13:29] <bender> ActionParsnip, hmm?
[13:29] <tomreyn> blackshirt: the package is called adobe-flashplugin to my knowledge
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: enable the partner repo and install adobe-flashplugin and you will get 64bit flash for your 64bit OS
[13:30] <MonkeyDust> sliddjur  a dolder has a d in front (directory)
[13:30] <tomreyn> blackshirt: that's the one form partner repository.
[13:30] <MonkeyDust> folder*
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> bender: seek and ye shall find
[13:30] <Darkenvy> Apparently its just firefox. Chrome is ULTRA FAST now
[13:30] <blackshirt> sliddjur what you mean ?
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: chrome is good like that
[13:30] <sliddjur> blackshirt: i do ls -all /usr/share
[13:31] <sliddjur> aptitude is an app. but apps is a directory
[13:31] <sliddjur> for example
[13:31] <MonkeyDust> sliddjur  a folder has a d in front (directory)
[13:31] <Darkenvy> okay installing adobe-flash
[13:31] <Darkenvy> will I have to disable another handler?
[13:31] <sliddjur> seems like they all do
[13:31] <tomreyn> sliddjur: it's called 'directory', not 'folder'. directories are indicated by a "d" character at the first position on each line of output in ths format
[13:32] <szymon_g> hi
[13:32] <cfhowlett> szymon_g: greetings
[13:32] <leotr> tomreyn, i rebooted. After reboot keyboard and mouse are still laggy. Screen resolution became lower
[13:33] <SpecialEd> I am having some difficulty with installing mysql-server on my Ubuntu 12.04 machine, would anyone be able to give me a hand?  I've been at this for hours, having a really tough time, tried to talk to someone in #mysql and got dragged along by a 13 year old punk kid who must be bored, lol....
[13:33] <Sven_vB> i'm installing ubuntu with ubiquity, and i'm doing it a lot these days because i'm developing utilities for preseeding. one of the most time consuming actions when testing is "retrieving file N or M". can i somehow boost that? i've already set my apt-cacher-ng as http_proxy.
[13:33] <leotr> tomreyn, mouse cursor blinks when windo appears under it
[13:34] <Darkenvy> Well firefox still has a problem
[13:34] <tomreyn> leotr: please run this again: lspci -knnv | grep -A10 VGA | pastebinit
[13:34] <SpecialEd> hello, im having trouble installing mysql-server-5.5 for ubuntu 12.04 i had a previous existance of it on this machine but something went horribly wrong, i backed up my database
[13:34] <SpecialEd> and have completely uninstalled mysql-server-5.5 and mysql-server-client and mysql-server-common and mysql-server i even went to the trouble of purging any file related to mysql from the system, including the docs and man files
[13:34] <leotr> tomreyn, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192709/
[13:34] <SpecialEd> i then do apt-get upgrade apt-get update   -reboot-   then apt-get install mysql-server 5.5 and it fails
[13:34] <SpecialEd> it first asks for a password, i've tried blank and entering in 2 passwords   (tried this whole cycle 3 times in a row) all is well until i get this error:
[13:35] <SpecialEd> An error occurred while setting the password for the MySQL administrative user. This may have happened because the account already has a password, or because of a communication problem with the MySQL server.
[13:35] <Sven_vB> SpecialEd: is it on purpose to run upgrade *after* update than before?
[13:35] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: i suggest you run software-properties-gtk, enable the 'canonical-partner' repository, then run: sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> SpecialEd  try #mysql
[13:35] <liquidjamm> can anyone help troubleshoot SFTP jail?
[13:36] <SpecialEd> MonkeyDust: I did, they sent me here
[13:36] <SpecialEd> Sven_vB: not sure what your question is
[13:36] <blackshirt> specialid, check your log said
[13:36] <Darkenvy> tomreyn I did that about 5 minutes ago
[13:36] <tomreyn> leotr: okay you're using the nouveau driver now. since you say the issue with input device lag persists it is most likely a hardware or firmware issue. now we can really start to investigate your log files.
[13:36] <SpecialEd> blackshirt: log file is empty
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> !tab > blackshirt
[13:36] <Darkenvy> my problem is that chrome now runs MUCH faster on flash but firefox is still the same; slow
[13:37] <SpecialEd> blackshirt: for mysql at least
[13:37] <Sven_vB> SpecialEd: usually when i upgrade my software, i do the apt-get update *before* that, so that the 2nd step upgrade then will use the lastest package information
[13:37] <SpecialEd> ok thanks sven
[13:37] <tomreyn> Darkenvy: i didn't notice you telling us about running that.
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: cos firefox is lame :)
[13:37] <yeats> SpecialEd: this is when installing via apt-get, yes?  then I wouldn't expect the mysql log to be active yet
[13:37] <Sven_vB> SpecialEd: as to the problem, try to purge mysql. that should remove the password as a part of removing all the mysql config data.
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: did you uninstall all the flash handlers and install only adobe-flashplugin?
[13:37] <blackshirt> specialed, what the errors exactly?
[13:38] <SpecialEd> Sven_vB: I've tried with the purge flag
[13:38] <SpecialEd> blackshirt: its above
[13:38] <SnapSnap> Can I change the time server Ubuntu uses to get Internet time?
 An error occurred while setting the password for the MySQL administrative user. This may have happened because the account already has a password, or because of a communication problem with the MySQL server.
 okay installing adobe-flash
[13:38] <Darkenvy> * lousygarua has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds)
 will I have to disable another handler?
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> SnapSnap: I think it's in /etc/ntpd.conf
[13:38] <Sven_vB> oh, then have you testet whether mysql is indeed running on the default port after setup?
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: yes, uninstall them as I stated
[13:39] <tomreyn> leotr: please do: sudo cat /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[13:39] <Darkenvy> I just installed them
[13:39] <Darkenvy> as a prereq for installing it, it make me uninstall the other one
[13:39] <SnapSnap> ActionParsnip, I read that online, but there's no such file in my /etc
[13:39] <SpecialEd> Sven_vB: service mysql status shows not running, as does netstat -lnpt
[13:40] <Darkenvy> removed
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> SnapSnap: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime    has a how to about halfway down for ntp
[13:40] <blackshirt> specialed... have you try to reinstall them?
[13:40] <leotr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192715/
[13:41] <Darkenvy> ITs removed actionparsnip however flash is still going in firefox
[13:41] <tomreyn> leotr: then: sudo /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit; sudo /var/log/kern.log | pastebinit; dmesg | pastebinit
[13:41] <Sven_vB> ok then i'll join MonkeyDust in trying #mysql :)
[13:41] <SpecialEd> blackshirt: yes, as described initially i have 3 times
[13:41] <yeats> SpecialEd: see this Debian thread that has a possible fix http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux/186132-fresh-debian-install-fails-install-mysql.html#post877215
[13:42] <freddddiiiiii> I am having a simple issue. I have made the top Unity bar 100% transparent, all good, but when the menu fades out, it will appear as black text behind it: http://ompldr.org/vZmV1aQ/ubuntu-black-text-issue-on-full-transparancy.png
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: did you close firefox entirely then rerun it
[13:42] <Darkenvy> yes I did
[13:42] <SpecialEd> yeats: yeah, been to that site, tried those steps :(
[13:43] <Darkenvy> I even disabled the shockwave plugin from the firefox settings
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> Darkenvy: can you rerun the command I gave and pastebin the text please
[13:43] <MonkeyDust> freddddiiiiii  there's also the channel #unity3d
[13:43] <leotr> tomreyn, syslog -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192715/, Xorg.0.log is empty (, dmesg -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192721/
[13:43] <freddddiiiiii> Ok.
[13:43] <SpecialEd> i remembered it because of the annoying video there lol
[13:43] <Darkenvy> Oh well that setting is gone now.... but I did it before I removed all the flash plugins
[13:43] <Darkenvy> I found a gnash-common too. so I removed that as well
[13:44] <SpecialEd> yeats: still same old problem "An error occurred while setting the password for the MySQL administrative user. This may have happened because the account already has a password, or because of a communication problem with the MySQL server. "
[13:44] <blackshirt> specialed, you can purge it and try to install again your mysql server..you should familiar with apt troubleshootings includes hook to script
[13:44] <SpecialEd> I've been at this for 12 hours now:(
[13:44] <yeats> SpecialEd: how much trouble would it be to reinstall ubuntu and start over?
[13:44] <yeats> (because that would take less than 12 hours)
[13:44] <blackshirt> specialed... I don't know exactly what are trying to do
[13:45] <SpecialEd> blackshirt: thanks, but i've done both "aptitude purge mysql-server-5.1 mysql-server-core-5.1 mysql-client-5.1 " &  "apt-get purge remove mysql-server"   I'm very familiar with apt troubleshootings
[13:45] <SpecialEd> yeats: it'll be a nightmare, but i guess this'll be by my weekend
[13:45] <tomreyn> leotr: sudo ls -t1 /var/log/Xorg.*.log | head -n1 | xargs sudo cat | pastebinit
[13:46] <leotr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192725/
[13:46] <blackshirt> specialed, you should get cleaned state
[13:46] <Sven_vB> SpecialEd: is it usual for reinstalling to be a nightmare?
[13:46] <SpecialEd> never
[13:46] <SpecialEd> for whatever reason this mysql install has been a shitshow for me :(
[13:47] <Darkenvy> Flash still works in chrome and firefox. despite uninstalling everything flash related. gnash, adobe-flash, ect
[13:47] <tomreyn> leotr: thanks. you can search for and install pending  updates now, then reboot once more and tell me whether it got better. i'll have some reading to do in the meantime.
[13:47] <Darkenvy> however firefox is incredibly slow
[13:48] <blackshirt> specialed, i think that was from postinstall script
[13:48] <Michelle_> hi, someone knows why i get stuck at https://www.logicsupply.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/boot_splash.png ?
[13:48] <tomreyn> leotr: oh don't reboot just yet, there's more to be done.
[13:48] <TribesAsc> should i upgrade to unbuntu 12.10 from 11.10, i reallly like 11.10 , but i feel im missing out on something by not upgrading
[13:48] <leotr> ok
[13:48] <droidcore> Hi, I'm trying to convert a desktop install CD to an alternate install CD with jigdo, but I can't find any .debs in the desktop CD (also checked in filesystem.squashfs).  Does anyone know how they're stored?  trying to avoid downloading the whole thing
[13:49] <cfhowlett> TribesAsc: 12.10 is beta.
[13:49] <yeats> TribesAsc: 12.10 isn't released yet, so no one here is going to recommend that
[13:49] <Daekdroom> TribesAsc, first you'd have to upgrade to 12.04 LTS, and 12.10 is still in development.
[13:49] <blackshirt> specialed, i think you was not successfully purging your mysql server
[13:49]  * szymon_g wanders why there is no Faenza package in default repositories :/
[13:49] <tobleh> hahahahah
[13:49] <yeats> TribesAsc: and I'm one for not fixing what's not been broken - if you like 11.10, no need to rock the boat ;-)
[13:49] <tomreyn> leotr: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[13:49] <cfhowlett> TribesAsc: if you want bleeding edge stuff, go for the upgrade - and be prepared to maintain and configure it.  If you want a system that works, stick with LTS.  WAY fewer headaches.
[13:50] <tomreyn> leotr: and tell me whether it says it already had it.
[13:50] <tomreyn> leotr: i.e. "nothing to do"
[13:50] <leotr> it's downloading...
[13:50] <leotr> and unpacking
[13:50] <TribesAsc> i like headaches, it keeps me from doing worng stuff
[13:50] <leotr> got installed
[13:51] <max> hello
[13:51] <NeuhNeuh> Hi !
[13:51] <Michelle_> someone knows why i get stuck at boot splash screen?
[13:51] <tomreyn> leotr: okay, now install all the other pending updates (should include a kernel update) and reboot.
[13:51] <NeuhNeuh> I want to enable Compiz on XFCE4, but many solutions offer by Google (and doc ubuntu website) don't work :/
[13:51] <blackshirt> hello max
[13:51] <TribesAsc> does 12.04 have support for my nvidia with intel i7 laptop
[13:51] <cfhowlett> NeuhNeuh: greetings
[13:51] <blackshirt> specialed, still there guys?
[13:51] <NeuhNeuh> cfhowlett, ?
[13:52] <NeuhNeuh> Hi cfhowlett  :)
[13:52] <max> hw r u doing blackshirt
[13:52] <sunilrk> hi al
[13:52] <blackshirt> max, nothing lol
[13:52] <blackshirt> Hi sunilrk
[13:52] <cfhowlett> NeuhNeuh: we had a guy on irc last night talking about that.  I don't know how he did it, but apparently xfce and compiz can be made to co-exist
[13:52] <OerHeks> !nomodeset | Michelle_
[13:52] <sunilrk> hi blackshirt
[13:53] <sunilrk> where are you from
[13:54] <blackshirt> sunilrk, what do you think about?
[13:54] <blackshirt> sory for my cryptic english
[13:54] <leotr> tomreyn, ok, upgrading... this will take a while. I'll let you know when it finishes
[13:55] <sunilrk> its ok
[13:55] <tomreyn> leotr: cool, just reboot when it's done and notify me when you're back.
[13:55] <leotr> ok
[13:56] <blackshirt> sunilrk, do you come from india?
[13:56] <firered365> Hello.
[13:56] <blackshirt> hello firered365
[13:56] <tomtiger11> How can i have one ubuntu server, and have different computers login through that server?
[13:57] <firered365> I need help. I installed ubuntu inside windows, but I want ubuntu to be the only OS in the computer
[13:57] <Sven_vB> tomtiger11: what kind of services would you like to log into?
[13:57] <blackshirt> tomtiger1, what you need, describe more details?
[13:57] <cfhowlett> firered365: you mean NO windows available at all?
[13:57] <bekks> tomtiger11: Just create multiple user accounts.
[13:57] <sunilrk> yes blackshirt how do you know i am from india
[13:57] <firered365> Yes!
[13:57] <blackshirt> firered365, you should do full installation..and replace your old os
[13:58] <firered365> With a live CD?
[13:58] <cfhowlett> firered365: yes
[13:58] <tomtiger11> bekks: But they need to login through the server
[13:58] <blackshirt> Sunilrk, yes, because i'm smart enough ::d
[13:58] <firered365> Ok. Will it delete everything I have already?
[13:58] <bekks> tomtiger11: What do you mean by "login through the server"?
[13:58] <uberamd> tomtiger11: are you trying to use the server as a authentication server?
[13:58] <sunilrk> cool..wer r u from blackshirt
[13:58] <firered365> On Ubuntu
[13:59] <tomtiger11> bekks: I mean have ubuntu connect to the server as if the accounts were on the computer
[13:59] <blackshirt> sunilrk, thank you... You can think me come from indonesia :d
[13:59] <cfhowlett> firered365: you installed a wubi setup.  Full installation is different.  Backup your data to a usb, fully install and copy over your data.
[13:59] <bekks> tomtiger11: So you want a thin client then?
[13:59] <uberamd> tomtiger11: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[14:00] <tomtiger11> Since ive got 13 computers, And one of them is going to be a server to host the users files, and login through that server
[14:00] <uberamd> tomtiger11: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[14:00] <firered365> Yes. I really don't have much, but just don't want to download everything all over again on my Ubuntu partition.
[14:01] <uberamd> tomtiger11: I just want to point out that what you're asking for isn't simple. Its something that organizations do, but its not something you setup in 10 minutes
[14:01] <tomtiger11> uberamd: Yes, Ive got a few people in a club at school who would be assisting.
[14:01] <tomtiger11> its for that club
[14:01] <blackshirt> tomtiger11, you mean single sign on?
[14:02] <tomtiger11> indeed
[14:02] <uberamd> tomtiger11: just google Ubuntu Directory Server and get reading :)
[14:02] <blackshirt> tomtiger11, you can do it
[14:03] <Michelle_> OerHeks: the keyboard at the boot splash doesn't even respond?
[14:04] <tomtiger11> uberamd: Would I install OpenLDAPServer on the server computer and then what?
[14:04] <bekks> tomtiger11: OpenLDAP just gives you the authentication - nothing more.
[14:05] <bekks> For setting up thin clients, you have to refer to the Linux Terminal Server Project.
[14:05] <tomtiger11> bekks: Indeed, But how do i authenticate with OpenLDAP
[14:05] <tomtiger11> Seriously? Terminal?
[14:05] <blackshirt> you should configure your client to do authintication through informations on openldap server
[14:06] <tomtiger11> The computers that will authenticate through the server using the GUI
[14:06] <blackshirt> no big problem
[14:06] <tomtiger11> Right.
[14:08] <uberamd> tomtiger11: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication
[14:08] <tomreyn> leotr: still installing? is it possible (do you remember) that you have edited this file in the past? /etc/default/grub
[14:09] <leotr> tomreyn: yes, i did it
[14:09] <tomreyn> leotr: why did it seem neccessary to do so? and how long is it ago (same ubuntu version?)
[14:09] <leotr> yes, still installing. I added a line to it, while i was trying to resolve it. I did it today
[14:10] <leotr> just a minute i will tell you exactly
[14:10] <tomreyn> leotr: please undo the change of "nouveau.modeset=0" you did there
[14:11] <leotr> ok, removed that
[14:11] <tomreyn> leotr: now run: sudo update-grub
[14:12] <leotr> after i installed videocard i faced the problem we are trying to resolve so there was a recommendation to do it. Ok did that
[14:13] <taowa> I am not in the sudoers file but I am an admin
[14:13] <blackshirt> admin on real world but not on computer account
[14:13] <jrib> taowa: what is your question?
[14:14] <leotr> tomreyn, almost done installing will reboot soon
[14:14] <taowa> How do I get into the sudoers file to add myself
[14:14] <jrib> taowa: what is the output of this command: groups
[14:14] <tomreyn> leotr: don't forget to run: sudo update-grub
[14:14] <blackshirt> taowa, add your user to sudo
[14:14] <MonkeyDust> taowa  visudo
[14:14] <taowa> I am not allowd

[14:15] <BluesKaj> in the terminal sudo visudo , taowa
[14:15] <blackshirt> and then logout to see the effect
[14:15] <leotr> tomreyn, yes, it's already done
[14:15] <tomreyn> leotr: did you make other changes to /etc/default/grub ?
[14:15] <szymon_g> how can i modify the osd info from rhythmbox (the one that is displayed in upper-right corner when i change the track)? i cannot find that options in rhythmbox :/
[14:15] <leotr> tomreyn, no
[14:15] <ozette> is it possible I'm experiencing flash problems because of 64 bit?
[14:15] <jrib> blackshirt, BluesKaj, MonkeyDust: if he doesn't have sudo access, he won't be able to do any of those things at the moment
[14:16] <blackshirt> yes, you are right
[14:16] <blackshirt> He can contact the administrator
[14:16] <ozette> sometimes I can't type at websites like youtube or justin.tv
[14:16] <jrib> taowa: what is the output of this command: groups
[14:16] <max> #
[14:16] <BluesKaj> jrib, tha's why I told him/her to sudo visudo
[14:16] <jrib> BluesKaj: but he doesn't have sudo access presumably
[14:16] <szymon_g> ozette, what flash problems are you talking about?
[14:16] <max> hey any buddy from US

[14:22] <MonkeyDust> max  http://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/
[14:22] <tomreyn> leotr: for your information, the issue you're running into is about IRQs, specifically IRQ 19 is troublesome as can be seen on line 9858 on http://paste.ubuntu.com/1192715/
[14:24] <tomreyn> leotr: i suggest you power down your PC, unplug power, open your PC enclosure again, ensure the new video card is properly seated, close the enclosure again, reconnect power, power it up, enter bios, restore it "optimized defaults" or, if not available, "manufacturer defaults", boot up and ping me here again.
[14:25] <tomreyn> leotr: if your new grpahics card would also fit into a different slot on your mainboard then please move it to one of the other slots.
[14:25] <leotr> tomreyn, ok will do it
[14:25] <kuan> 你好，你们还没睡觉啊
[14:26] <MonkeyDust> !cn

[14:26] <Michelle> Hi, after choose "install ubuntu" i get "kernel panic - not syncing: timer doesn't work through interrupted remapped and comm: swapper/0 Not tainted?
[14:27] <cfhowlett> Michelle: did you md5sum check?
[14:27] <MrKeuner> is there a tool to detect duplicate directories rather than detecting duplicate files?
[14:27] <Michelle> cfhowlett: yes it looks good
[14:27] <kuan> yes,understand
[14:28] <kuan> roger
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Michelle: have you tested RAM using memtest86+ from the usb?
[14:28] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  i guess 'meld' does the job
[14:28] <leotr> tomreyn, ok, powering down
[14:29] <Michelle> ActionParsnip: no
[14:29] <luyang> Hi should I install the 3rd party mp3 during installation or wait?
[14:29] <luyang> until it is installed?
[14:30] <blackshirt> you can install it after all finished
[14:30] <Michelle> ActionParsnip: should i test the ram test at the ubuntu menu?
[14:30] <cfhowlett> luyang: not installed by default.  You have to selecte
[14:30] <luyang> Fluendo MP3 plugin
[14:30] <luyang> can it be installed afterwards or should I pick it during installation?
[14:30] <cfhowlett> luyang: you can install after installation
[14:30] <NeuhNeuh> Hi ! What application allow to edit decoration settings for gtk-window-decorator ?
[14:30] <blackshirt> yed
[14:32] <MonkeyDust> NeuhNeuh  i think 12.10 will have a gtk editor
[14:32] <ms_daisy> Does Thunderbird use Tor by default?
[14:32] <tomreyn> Michelle: is this computer you're trying to install on a macbook air by chance?
[14:32] <NeuhNeuh> Ok MonkeyDust i looking for gtk editor
[14:32] <tux01> hello
[14:33] <kuan> 你好
[14:33] <cfhowlett> tux01: greetings
[14:33] <blackshirt> hello tux01
[14:33] <cfhowlett> !cn|kuan
[14:33] <Michelle> tomreyn: Macbook Pro 13-inch, mountain lion, intel i5, 4gb ram
[14:33] <cfhowlett> tomreyn: for the win!
[14:33] <szymon_g> does replaygain plugin in rhythmbox (12.04 default) work for you? it keeps crashing on my box
[14:33] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, it does if you suspect two specific directories
[14:33] <luyang> ftw wtf
[14:34] <tomreyn> :)
[14:34] <tux01> why my fonts get reseted every time i boot my ubuntu ?
[14:34] <tux01> i'm using xfce
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> ms_daisy: as far as I know it will use the system wide settings
[14:34] <tomreyn> Michelle: this suggests you may want to use the nointremap kernel/boot option to run the installer:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2006289
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> tux01: reset in what way?
[14:34] <tomreyn> Michelle: do you know how to do this?
[14:35] <tux01> i use b5 theme and love the size of the fonts
[14:35] <Michelle> tomreyn: i'll look on the site first :P
[14:35] <tux01> i can't see well so i use them as they are bigger
[14:35] <MonkeyDust> NeuhNeuh  http://worldofgnome.org/customizing-gtk-themes-just-got-easier/
[14:35] <tux01> and as i love beos
[14:37] <tux01> oh i use ubuntu 10.4.4
[14:38] <NeuhNeuh> Thank You MonkeyDust
[14:39] <Michelle> tomreyn: i don't think i could do it. I can't find the solution?
[14:39] <ms_daisy> ActionParsnip, thanks. Apparently it automatically set itself to use a proxy. Weird.
[14:40] <BalthaTczar> If you write an .iso to disc, will it just write the iso file to disc or the contents ?
[14:41] <blackshirt> it,s depends
[14:42] <luyang> it takes a while to install ubuntu from cd!
[14:42] <tux01> oh if i use rsync  command to backup does the external hd must be in linux formal or in can be in fat32?
[14:42] <cfhowlett> luyang: usb is an option
[14:42] <blackshirt> yes
[14:42] <luyang> cfhowlett: last message was something about ubiquity and a file read permission denied
[14:43] <tomreyn> Michelle: on the boot screen, press F6 ("other") and select "noapic"
[14:43] <iceroot> tux01: only your home or the complete system?
[14:43] <nOStahl> what channel can I go to get some help with database setup
[14:43] <iceroot> tux01: there are some limitations on fat32 to i would recommend ext4 instead of fat32
[14:43] <cfhowlett> luyang: you DID hashcheck, right?
[14:43] <tomreyn> oh she's gone...
[14:43] <iceroot> nOStahl: #mysql #postgresql and so on
[14:43] <luyang> "Step before: stepMigrationAssistant"
[14:43] <tux01> i know the limits
[14:43] <luyang> cfhowlett: no?
[14:43] <tux01> of fat32
[14:44] <cfhowlett> !md5sum|luyang
[14:44] <luyang> how can I hash check
[14:44] <iceroot> tux01: no hardloinks, no POSIX ACLs only 2gb files
[14:44] <luyang> I see
[14:44] <luyang> hm
[14:44] <tux01> i just ask , if is important for permisions
[14:44] <cfhowlett> luyang: bad downloads happen most often with direct downloads, less often with torrents.  Bad iso means bad installation.  Takes 60 seconds to check.
[14:44] <iceroot> tux01: for POSIX ACLs, yes
[14:44] <tux01> i want to have backup of my home
[14:44] <iceroot> tux01: for normal permissions not
[14:44] <tux01> folder
[14:45] <iceroot> tux01: why not just using ext4?
[14:45] <nOStahl> btw how is everyone liking 12.04
[14:45] <luyang> but I am currently installing.... and now I am chatting on my mac mini
[14:45] <luyang> I am installing on the pc machine where the iso was burned from
[14:45] <cfhowlett> and with that ladies and gents, I must retire for the night.  Sadly, it's Saturday night here in Beijing, but I hae to work tomorrow.
[14:45] <tux01> i don't have any hd to format that one is for movies and the other one i have is for macosx time machine
[14:45] <iceroot> tux01: you are storing movies on fat32?
[14:46] <luyang> it has moved on... now doing some sort of plugin install
[14:46] <tux01> yes
[14:46] <iceroot> tux01: sounds like a bad idea but ok, that is not the topic on this channel
[14:46] <luyang> cfhowlett: xin nian kuai le
[14:46] <tux01> they are not pirate
[14:46] <iceroot> tux01: you can use fat32 to make a backup but ext4 is highly recommend because of hardlinks, posix acls and the file-size-limit
[14:47] <tux01> and if i use a usb pen drive ?
[14:47] <iceroot> tux01: what should be the difference?
[14:47] <damianos> need help troubleshooting ipsec configuration file on ubuntu 12.04. I'm getting an unexpected string syntax error in my ipsec.conf file when i run ipsec verify
[14:47] <damianos> http://pastebin.com/pQEQpJWm
[14:47] <tux01> and format it on linux ?
[14:47] <iceroot> tux01: its fine
[14:48] <tux01> ok then i'll see if i get a pen thanks
[14:48] <tolmun> nice sorprise, after upgrading to 3.2.0-30 the ui language changed into mandarin =)

[14:54] <bazhang> !ot | tux01
[14:54] <leotr> tomreyn, tried to reset bios, sorry i only have one PCI-E slot, so i plugged videocard out and pushed it back. I disabled floppy controller and serial/parallel port controllers, but still have the problem. There were some settings related to IRQ, but there was nothing related to IRQ19
[14:54] <MeanEYE> Hi. What's the state of btrfs on Ubuntu 12.04. Is it usable and stable?
[14:54] <tux01> but i don't get it if they sell extenal hds for tv then what we put in them?
[14:55] <bazhang> tux01, stop with the chit chat
[14:55] <iceroot> MeanEYE: unstable
[14:55] <tux01> ok
[14:55] <tomreyn> leotr: have you reseated the card, too?
[14:55] <MeanEYE> iceroot: Thanks. Any idea if the progress is good. If it's actively being worked on?
[14:55] <tomreyn> leotr: sorry, you just said you did
[14:56] <iceroot> MeanEYE: its worked on and i guess 12.10 or 13.04 will have it as default
[14:56] <MeanEYE> iceroot: Thanks! :) All I wanted to know.
[14:56] <iceroot> MeanEYE: but maybe more 13.04 then 12.10
[14:57] <MeanEYE> iceroot: Either is not too far. Is it the successor to ext4?
[14:57] <tomreyn> leotr: so let's do as the message suggests, use the irqpoll boot parameter
[14:57] <leotr> tomreyn: where can i set it?
[14:57] <iceroot> MeanEYE: its something different to ext4 so its not something like ext5 but it will replace ext4 in one of the coming releases
[14:58] <tomreyn> leotr: /etc/grub/default - right where you had the other option
[14:59] <MeanEYE> iceroot: I know they are not the same. I was just wondering if there will be ext5.
[14:59] <tomreyn> leotr: chances are the graphics card you have install3ed is not actually compatible with your mainboard.
[15:00] <leotr> hmmm... possible... it's old
[15:01] <leotr> rebooting
[15:01] <iceroot> MeanEYE: dont know anything about that, sorry
[15:01] <MeanEYE> iceroot: It's okay. That information won't affect me now. :) Thanks for the help.
[15:03] <Michelle> Hi, i still got the problem kernel panic - not syncing: timer doesn't work through interrupted remapped and comm: swapper/0 not tainted?
[15:03] <tomreyn> Michelle: on the boot screen, press F6 ("other") and select "noapic"
[15:03] <iceroot> Michelle: you are using the official ubuntu kernel related to your ubuntu-version?
[15:04] <Michelle> iceroot: im using the official ubuntu 64-bit iso from the ubuntu.com
[15:04] <Michelle> iceroot: 12.04 LTS
[15:05] <iceroot> Michelle: undepended from a solution, did you create a bug about that issue?
[15:05] <leotr> tomreyn, :-******** it worked!!!! thank you so much!!!! i owe you
[15:05] <leotr> what can i do for you?
[15:06] <leotr> irqpoll resolved the problem
[15:06] <tomreyn> leotr: :) cool
[15:08] <Michelle> tomreyn: i'll try it :)
[15:08] <tomreyn> leotr: you may want to comment on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/993425 or mark it as affecting you and subscribe to it so you'll know when/if it gets fixed/improved so you can remove the boot option again then.
[15:11] <econdudeawesome> howdy all. How do I change my icon theme in openbox? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, built up from ubuntu minimal install (base server)
[15:12] <seednode> Well, assuming you couldn't find it on Google, let me check.
[15:12] <econdudeawesome> seednode: it was not clear to me when I googlefued
[15:12] <bazhang> openbox-themes, openbox-xdgmenu econdudeawesome got there installed?
[15:12] <bazhang> err these
[15:12] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: not sure let me check
[15:13] <ms_daisy> The torproject has been pushing some updates to Ubuntu for me but the gpg keys are expired. Anyone else seeing these?
[15:13] <seednode>      System-wide themes are installed in /usr/share/themes. User-specific themes can be installed in ~/.local/share/themes or in ~/.themes.
[15:13] <bazhang> ms_daisy, gpg errors?
[15:13] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: xdgmenu was not installed.
[15:13] <seednode> Just put the theme there and setup with ObConf, maybe?
[15:13] <luyang> Is it just me or is Ubuntu significantly faster than Windows 7?
[15:14] <seednode> It often is, luyang.
[15:14] <luyang> I just installed a plugin in Eclipse and it feels faster
[15:14] <econdudeawesome> seednode: the specific issue I'm having is with nautilus displaying icons. Not sure how to link them together
[15:14] <seednode> Due to fewer background processes
[15:14] <bazhang> luyang, a good topic for #ubuntu-discuss
[15:14] <Calinou> luyang, obviously it is
[15:14] <ms_daisy> what do you mean bazhang ?
[15:14] <luyang> ok should I enable TRIM via discard option or just leave it? (I use ssd)
[15:14] <Calinou> lubuntu and xubuntu are sometimes even faster
[15:15] <seednode> Ubuntu minimal + awesome is even faster-er
[15:15] <xangua> ms_daisy: he means that you should share the actual error message
[15:15] <luyang> small is beautiful
[15:15] <econdudeawesome> luyang: super fast, especially when you pare out the bloat from the default install or build up from ubuntu minimal (I prefer openbox, it appears seednode prefers awesome, both are windows managers)
[15:16] <seednode> I just love tiling, and awesome seems to be less work to setup.
[15:16] <seednode> But to each their own.
[15:16] <econdudeawesome> seednode: perhaps. I've not found awesome to as such, but I work on multiple monitors
[15:16] <jeep> !ot | everyone
[15:16] <econdudeawesome> !offtopic | jeep
[15:17]  * seednode sighs. Alright, time to go back to off-topic.
[15:17] <econdudeawesome> :)
[15:17] <econdudeawesome> anyway--any ideas how I can get nautilus to show icons so I can distinguish between folders and files?
[15:17] <ms_daisy> gotcha bazhang and xangua . It says "GPG error: http://deb.torproject.org oneiric InRelease: The following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED<PHONE_NUMBER> KEYEXPIRED<PHONE_NUMBER> KEYEXPIRED<PHONE_NUMBER> KEYEXPIRED<PHONE_NUMBER>"
[15:18] <lazysuperhero> crooked
[15:18] <bazhang> !gpgerr | ms_daisy this may help
[15:18] <Michelle> tomreyn: hey i tried noacpi but i got another kernel panic :/ "kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init" and nomodeset for the graphic
[15:18] <bazhang> econdudeawesome, its in the nautilus settings on views
[15:18] <luyang> I don't know where all the running programs are listed...
[15:18] <luyang> not in the sidebar?
[15:19] <Michelle> tomreyn: comm: init Not tainted
[15:19] <luyang> oh the Eclipse process has a question mark in the side bar
[15:19] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: not icon view--actual icons
[15:19] <xangua> ms_daisy: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en there says how to add the gpg key
[15:20] <tomreyn> Michelle: how do you mean you got "nomodeset for the graphic"? did you set it yourself, or did the installer suggest you use it?
[15:21] <nsaquatics> morning, is TJ on?
[15:22] <gigatropolis> j #brewtarget
[15:23] <Michelle> tomreyn: i set myself nomodeset to not get black screen after choosing "install ubuntu"
[15:23] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: the icons that DO display, unless they are previewable, look like a page with the corner turned down
[15:24] <jeep> Michelle: what cpu/ram/video card ? have you tried alternate cd ?
[15:24] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: i'd like folders to look like folders and files to not look like folder
[15:27] <TribesAsc> doesnt any one here play tirbes, im fent to head off to play it
[15:27] <tomreyn> Michelle: boot again, press F6 again, then hit escape once to close this popup menu. you now have the boot line editable. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Changing_the_CD_Boot_Option_Configuration_Line
[15:27] <Michelle> jeep: 2,5 GHz intel core i5, 4 GB ram, Intel HD Graphics 4000 384 mb
[15:28] <ms_daisy> yup, I found that and followed it xangua . Seems to have solved it. Thanks!
[15:28] <TribesAsc> Michelle, so you have 3rd Gen i5?
[15:28] <tomreyn> Michelle: there, add this to the very end: nointremap
[15:28] <econdudeawesome> bazhang: it actually looks almost exactly like this screenshot, but happens even at boot: http://askubuntu.com/questions/115859/nautilus-icons-are-not-displayed
[15:28] <allballs> Can anyone tell me how, the Ubuntu-way, to install PHP5 with LFS? Stock (Precise) packages can't seem to handle large-files. At all.
[15:28] <tomreyn> Michelle: this is based on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2006289
[15:29] <allballs> seems that it wasn't compiled with _64 jazz.
[15:29] <jeep> econdudeawesome: mv ~/.gconf/apps/nautilus to nautilus-old .. might have to do it after logging out that should reset it
[15:29] <econdudeawesome> jeep: thanks.
[15:29] <MonkeyDust> econdudeawesome  'mashup' is nice iconset
[15:29] <MonkeyDust> econdudeawesome  'mashup' is a nice iconset
[15:29] <Michelle> TribesAsc: i don't know if it's 3rd Gen :P
[15:30] <econdudeawesome> jeep: that files does not seem to exist. Is this a problem?
[15:30] <econdudeawesome> MonkeyDust: yeah? I'll check it out
[15:30] <Michelle> tomreyn: i'll try :P i've always got errors and problems when doing something :/
[15:31] <jeep> econdudeawesome: hmm thats where mine is that nautilus is a directory with desktop setiings.xml and prefences directory below it
[15:31] <Bersirc> a
[15:32] <econdudeawesome> jeep: perhaps thats the issue. I'll look into it
[15:32] <jeep> econdudeawesome: maybe a permissions issue if it ended up ownwed by root
[15:34] <econdudeawesome> jeep: well, can't seem to run gksu for some reason. But when I run sudo nautilus the icon issue is still there
[15:34] <^Mike> Transmission isn't limiting download speed despite being set to do so. Is this a known regression?
[15:35] <jeep> econdudeawesome: could be system wide do you have another useraccount you can login and see if it works ok on ?
[15:36] <econdudeawesome> jeep: im on an administrator account (not root), no other account setup
[15:36] <econdudeawesome> jeep: Im not sure I said that right. I have full access through sudo
[15:37] <jeep> econdudeawesome: just for the sake of testing create a second user account .. if it logs in and everything is normal you can focus on your account settings .. if it logs in and is screwed up then its the system wide settings
[15:37] <econdudeawesome> jeep: let's assume it's system wide since I installed everything yesterday and its never worked? What would I do then?
[15:38] <Michelle> tomreyn: hey tom, adding nointremap at the end didn't help
[15:40] <Michelle> tomreyn: I set nomodeset, noacpi and typed nointremap on the bootline but still gets kernel panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init! comm: init not tainted.
[15:42] <econdudeawesome> well, got to run. Adios!
[15:42] <jeep> econdudeawesome: did you install themes/icons yesterday ?
[15:43] <bazhang> he's gone jeep
[15:43] <tomreyn> Michelle: i meant the nointremap to replace the noapic option actually. but chances are this may not work out then either.
[15:44] <tomreyn> Michelle: it could help to have the entire error message available. do you think you could tyoe it or take a photo and upload it?
[15:44] <Michelle> tomreyn: i can upload it and link it
[15:45] <tomreyn> great
[15:49] <Michelle> tomreyn: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7dwzo28oprt90gi/2012-09-08%2017.14.39.jpg and https://www.dropbox.com/s/dqvc57qkp2p21tx/2012-09-08%2016.20.41.jpg
[15:53] <tomreyn> Michelle: now which is which? i mean which one do you get to see first? or do you only get to see one of those but the other if you have other boot params in place? which one do you get with no boot params in place?
[15:53] <vinodpaul> $ PWD
[15:54] <Michelle> tomreyn: i think it's only https://www.dropbox.com/s/7dwzo28oprt90gi/2012-09-08%2017.14.39.jpg :P
[15:55] <tomreyn> Michelle: that's the one you get with no boot params in place?
[15:56] <Michelle> tomreyn: i get it when i turn on nomodeset i think, it's either noacpi that cause the error or the nomodeset?
[15:56] <Michelle> tomreyn: noapci*
[15:57] <phaidros> is there any reason that 12.04 LTS comes without CONFIG_CIFS_ACL kernel setting ?!
[15:58] <tomreyn> Michelle: do you mean "noapic" or "acpi=off"?
[15:58] <jeep> Michelle: are you using usbstick or cd ? did you md5sum ect. run the diskcheck option ect.
[15:59] <Michelle> tomreyn: noapic :p
[15:59] <Michelle> jeep: usbstick and the md5sum is correct
[16:00] <rapstudio> how to increase system volume in ubuntu studio
[16:02] <jeep> Michelle: how did you make the usbstick?
[16:02] <lluvia> how can I change my system from using vesa driver to the proper intel one
[16:02] <compdoc> is there a command to upgrade 12.04 to 12.04.1  ?
[16:02] <Daekdroom> compdoc, that upgrade should happen automatically.
