[17:34] <genii-around> digadvan: Might get better response for that one in #ubuntu-server
[17:35] <digadvan> ok_wait, it a dns term.. typically your secondary dns server is setup as a slave
[17:35] <digadvan> ok
[17:35] <digadvan> thanks
[17:35] <grek2> is possible to use unity seach and lenses with kde ?
[17:35] <grek2> i love unity search - tomboy, web hostory , and documents :)
[17:35] <grek2> togetrer
[17:35] <ok_wait> ah
[17:36] <konam> does anybody knows an alternative to hideman vpn for ubuntu?
[17:36] <bobweaver> grek2,  short answer no long answer yes once kde is ported or intagrated with qml and not QT
[17:36] <bobweaver> grek2,  widgets  for now
[17:37] <konam> it's a simple vpn manager, let's you connect to the internet masked as coming from several countries in a very easy and simple way
[17:37] <grek2> widget witch search ? ok im search
[17:37] <grek2> great
[17:37] <Erik_D> konam: sort of like tor but not really?
[17:37] <devral> hi. I'm trying to create a tar backup of folders. I'm using "find -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d -exec /bin/tar -zcvf today.tar.gz {} \;" but it's only archiving the last directory in the list
[17:38] <grek2> how i can firn somethink about widgets ? (lens for kde)
[17:38] <ok_wait> devral, i think there's a #bash
[17:38] <devral> okay thanks
[17:38] <bobweaver> grek2,  they are not "lens" you can ask in #kbunutu
[17:39] <alecjw> hi, does anyone know why i get this error when trying to transfer files to my galaxy nexus (MTP device) in rhythmbox under ubuntu 12.10? "Unable to send file to MTP device: PTP Layer error 02fe: get_storage_freespace(): could not get storage info."
[17:39] <grek2> ok :)
[17:39] <konam> Erik_D i haven't used tor because it seems that the focus of it it's anonimity not the masking of your IP to any specific country (although it does that randomly i presume)
[17:39] <grek2> its pity to tomboy is not in default repo
[17:39] <grek2> is best lens :)
[17:39] <grek2> but best when work togetrer lens is grat at all :)
[17:40] <Erik_D> konam: So what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[17:40] <bobweaver> grek2,  #kubuntu   sorry about the miss type
[17:40] <konam> Erik_D mask my ip as if it was coming from another country, UK, or NL, or germany, you name it
[17:41] <Erik_D> konam: Can you just use a proxy site?
[17:43] <konam> Erik_D no, i need the web browser to behave "normally", usually this sited disable things that won't let me use this other site i'm trying to access efficiently
[17:44] <Erik_D> konam: Tor can do that: http://www.ghacks.net/2008/01/29/configure-tor-to-use-a-specific-country-as-an-exit-node/
[17:45] <noob2> usr13: so would you know where i could start to add a new filesystem mount into the fstab?
[17:45] <doomlord> fstab=?
[17:46] <noob2> doomlord: i'm looking to add a new type of network mount to the fstab
[17:46] <noob2> since ubuntu has teamed up with ceph maybe they're already working on this and i can leave it to them.  i'm not sure
[17:46] <doomlord> is it a list of places that get mounted on startup or something
[17:47] <noob2> sort of.  i'm looking to have it mount ceph rbd devices
[17:47] <xpistos> Hello all. When I rebooted my 11.10 desktop my w TB drive is not showing up in fdisk. I can go to the drive listed on the left but if I go to the mount it says there is nothing in it. Can someone help?
[17:47] <noob2> it'll need something like mountpoint, monitor ip addr, pool, device name
[17:47] <usr13> noob2: I know how to make a fstab entry, but I do not know what ceph or rbd devices are.  Do you have either one mounted now? If so, mount | pastebinit
[17:48] <doomlord> i recall having to mess somewhere to get networking  with windows, but prefer the solution of not running windows now
[17:48] <noob2> will do
[17:49] <xpistos> This has happened in the past but when I reboot it has been fine
[17:49] <noob2> usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1380015/  last entry
[17:50] <noob2> this is a little more clear: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1380021/
[17:50] <noob2> shows more info about it
[17:50] <noob2> this shows exactly  how rbd's are mounted: http://ceph.com/docs/master/rbd/rbd-ko/
[17:51] <xpistos> when i reboot the computer it says that "The disk drive for /home/nanette/Titan is not ready yet or is not present." Continue to wait, or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery.
[17:51] <noob2> xpistos: S to skip
[17:52] <noob2> something in your fstab is missing upon boot
[17:52] <xpistos> noob2: yes, when I skip it boots, but that puts me where I am now. I will pastebin my fstab real quick if someone can tell me what I am missing.
[17:53] <usr13> noob2: So how is this device mounted now?
[17:53] <Johnnie71> hi there
[17:53] <Johnnie71> is  "added value on the internet" a good sentence?
[17:53] <konam> thank you Erik_D i'll check that out
[17:54] <ok_wait> JohnFlux, no
[17:54] <ok_wait> Johnnie71, no sorry
[17:54] <alecjw> Johnnie71: thats.... not a sentence at all. nor is that question relevant to #ubuntu
[17:54] <xpistos> the drive is mounted using the UUID but the mount is using the /dev/sdd1
[17:54] <usr13> Johnnie71: Missing subject
[17:55] <Johnnie71> Hrm, why not? @alecjw you are right but I couldnt find an offtopic channel

[17:56] <ubuntu__> Hello I'm new to ubuntu. Ran into a boot up issue with my mint. Out of frustration I am using ubuntu to look into reparing it. But I am having so much fun with unity that I am reconsidering switching to ubuntu. Just one question. Can the start button on ubuntu be changed?
[17:57] <Cong> ubuntu__, no.
[17:57] <alecjw> Johnnie71: #defocus
[17:58] <z__> a
[17:58] <ubuntu__> Cong, really.  Thought there was a way to change that
[17:58] <Johnnie71> alecjw: thanks
[17:59] <Cong> ubuntu__, if there was a way what would you have it changed to?
[17:59] <ubuntu__> Cong, just icons. Like the Mortal kombat symbol for a mortal kombat theme lol
[18:00] <xpistos> and when I try sudo fdisk -l sdd isn't listed
[18:00] <Cong> ubuntu__, somethings are just not meant to be change.
[18:00] <noob2> usr13: basically I setup a ceph.conf file which points to a monitor machine.  i then say rbd map test1 --pool test
[18:01] <noob2> it connects to the monitor and mounts the block devices as /dev/rbd0
[18:01] <xpistos> but if i go there from sidebar it shows up
[18:02] <ubuntu__> Cong, well that is sad. I fell in love with linux becuase of the power of choice over microsoft. But wow is unity fast. Hell I'd compare it to my windows 7. I have mint kde and windows 7 dualbooted. I love kde and all. But the access of files and programs is so amazing on unity.
[18:03] <xpistos> why would I be able to see it from the side bar but it now show up in fdisk?
[18:03] <xpistos> but not show up in fdisk?
[18:03] <doomlord> i dont understand why unity gets so much flak. I like most of its deisgn decisions. I especially like the way it handles maximize with the title/menubar
[18:03] <tiago> hello there
[18:03] <goahead87> Some one here that have the time to try help he
[18:04] <wastrel> doomlord: it's improved a lot since first release, i think a lot of the bad feelings about it are lagging indicators
[18:04] <tiago> are you guys having problem with flash player too?
[18:04] <wastrel> goahead87: just ask your question
[18:05] <goahead87> Me get ubuntu
[18:05] <xpistos> also sudo blkid doesn't show the drive
[18:05] <doomlord> admitedly having the option for horizontal dock would be nice, but i always put my dock vertical on a mac , the same
[18:05] <tiago> i can't access google for my plash player seems to be outdated
[18:05] <xpistos> I can use files in the drive by navigating to i9t from the side bar
[18:06] <mschr> hiya
[18:06] <mschr> i have a file in /etc/profile.d/java containing JAVA_HOME=/path ; export JAVA_HOME however, it is not exported to environment variable set?
[18:06] <goahead87> My screen are just flips after I updated and restartet
[18:07] <Guest59616> ok. so I'm having issues getting into my mint.   I might just hop onto ubuntu. Can anyone tell me what I need if I want to change the color theme of my windows?
[18:07] <mschr> any pointers as to where i should set system-wide environment?
[18:08] <tiago> my chromiun asks me to update my plash player to access google, how can I do that?
[18:09] <sudhin> tiago, go to tools > extensions and search
[18:09] <xangua> tiago do you have adobe flash player installed¿
[18:09] <tiago> yes
[18:10] <goahead87> Are the some buttons I can push to stopp  the startup ?
[18:10] <Dub-C> hi. i am experiencing problems with google chrome in ubuntu and would like to delete all caches and reinstall. where can i find all folders belonging to chrome? simply uninstall doesnt do.
[18:12] <ok_wait> Dub-C, get bleachbit and open it as root then apt-get remove chromium-browser and run the clean option in bleachbit while everything having to do with chrome is checked and nothing else
[18:12] <pksadiq> Dub-C: may be at ~/.chromium , just delete it and open chromuim
[18:13] <Dub-C> i dont have chromium, but google chrome
[18:13] <Dub-C> does the solution differ?
[18:13] <miikey212> What's a good high FPS recorder for Ubuntu? Something I can use to record Steam games like TF2 or Amnesia?
[18:13] <goahead87> Are the some buttons I can push to stopp  the startu
[18:14] <pksadiq> Dub-C: better user chromium. anyway the path may be .chrome or something like that at your home directory
[18:14] <goahead87> Startup
[18:14] <Dub-C> ok thank you
[18:14] <tiago> google shows a splash screen where is writen 'adobe flash player 11.4.402.278' to download, I can download it, but i cant install it is .cpl
[18:17] <dcherniv_> miikey212, vlc maybe
[18:17] <goahead87> Are the some buttons I can push to stopp  the startup ?
[18:17] <trippeh> Where have the tunables for the system tmpfs's gone in 12.04/12.10?
[18:17] <miikey212> dcherniv_: VLC records your screen?
[18:17] <dcherniv_> miikey212, oh my... yes
[18:18] <xpistos> I think that another disk is bad or missing and it gave my 2 tb drive a different drive letter
[18:23] <xpistos> Okay so it wasn't my 2 tb drive having the problem it was another drive. But by changing to the UUID it is better now
[18:23] <tiago> my problem is what follows: I can't access several websites such as google.com in any browser I have (chromiun, firefox or opera). It says my flash player must be updated, and offers me to download it (adobe flash player 11.4.402.278 .cpl) how can I install it? Or how can update my current version? any thoughts?
[18:24] <ki7rw> i just bought an HP DJ 3510 but i can't print to it - i can print the ip though
[18:24] <ki7rw> i can use my web browser to connect to it also
[18:25] <tapas> tiago: sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree
[18:25] <tapas> or something?
[18:25] <tapas> apt-cache search flash
[18:25] <wastrel> ki7rw: what does it mean you can print the ip
[18:25] <ki7rw> using the printers utilities it prints just fine
[18:25] <wastrel> oh from the web GUI ?
[18:25] <ki7rw> wastrel: i can PING the ip
[18:25] <webfox> What is the basic package I should install in order to get the basic developer compilers and stuff for c of course.
[18:25] <wastrel> ki7rw: did you do auto configuration?
[18:25] <tiago> 'thanks but:
[18:25] <tiago> Reading package lists... Done
[18:25] <tiago> Building dependency tree
[18:25] <tiago> Reading state information... Done
[18:25] <tiago> E: Unable to locate package flashplayer-nonfree

[18:25] <ki7rw> wastrel: no
[18:26] <tiago> ok, sorry
[18:26] <dcherniv_> webfox, build-essential
[18:26] <tiago> here it ishttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1380100/
[18:26] <wastrel> ki7rw: in the printer settings you can probably just go in and put ipp://<ip of printer>/ipp
[18:26] <webfox> dcherniv_, yes, right! You are cool, thank you! ;)
[18:26] <ki7rw> since i can connect to the printer with my web browser i should be able to print to it
[18:27] <wastrel> ki7rw: correct, did you open up the printer configruator thing and put in the address of the printer?
[18:27] <HTC-DZ> will starting ubuntu with NOMODESET cause it to run slow?
[18:28] <ki7rw> wastrel: yes -  i set a static addess
[18:28] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, shouldnt make a difference
[18:29] <HTC-DZ> so basically if the live cd runs slow the installed OS would crawl as well?
[18:29] <gordonjcp> HTC-DZ: the installed OS will be a bit quicker
[18:29] <gordonjcp> HTC-DZ: CDs are *slow*
[18:29] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, what gordonjcp said
[18:30] <wastrel> ki7rw: in the printer properties on your ubuntu what's the URI ?
[18:30] <ki7rw> wastrel: well, it's a static address but i had to go into the router to reserve a dhcp address for that printer - not the usual way that i set a static address but it works the same
[18:30] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, also depending on your graphics cards things will speed up with the proprietary driver
[18:31] <ki7rw> wastrel: socket://<IP_ADDRESS>:9100
[18:32] <HTC-DZ> my graphics card is the reason i have to to start the live cd with NOMODESET. otherwise it doesnt boot and gets stuck with a black screen. GPU is nvidia 6150. nforce 430 mobo
[18:32] <wastrel> oki...
[18:32] <HTC-DZ> i know its an old chipset but up until ubuntu 11 its been working fine. no hassles at all
[18:32] <wastrel> ki7rw: i sorry this isn't a lpd ipp thing seems hp has their own proprietary protocol?  do you have HP drivers installed?
[18:33] <navalastro> yeray
[18:33] <wastrel> ki7rw: found this did you read it already?  https://answers.launchpad.net/hplip/+question/214021
[18:33] <ki7rw> wastrel: the printer is listed in the linux driver list and that's what i used
[18:34] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, ah yes. Chances are once installed you will get the black screen on startup.
[18:34] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, i would download the nvidia driver from nvidia.com put on a usb stick.
[18:34] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, once installed start with nomodeset and install the nvidia driver
[18:36] <goahead87> Have  that boot problem
[18:37] <HTC-DZ> dcherniv, im a bit lost. if i install it and it starts with black screen how am i going to install drivers from my usb?
[18:37] <xfact> Does Ubuntu support Intel GPUs? I have Intel HD graphics 3000 [as my Windows GPU information says], is there native set of hardware drivers exists like Nvidia's?
[18:38] <chinmay_> i am using ubuntu studio,, audio apps are crashing ?
[18:38] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, does nomodeset give you a text console?
[18:38] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, you should be able to still boot into your installation with nomodeset if you can do so with live cd
[18:38] <rokin> hi everyone  is there a good tool to setup a Multi-Monitor , i'm using now ARandR but i'm not happy with the results
[18:39] <HTC-DZ> oh ok, so startup with nomodeset, install driver, restart machine. n that should be that?
[18:39] <goahead87> Installed older version from a CD. And was working fine to the updating
[18:40] <goahead87> Now. Boot freez
[18:41] <HTC-DZ> dcherniv_ i havent installed it yet. i only tried from live cd. i boot from it, press f6, select nomodeset then it boots up. no text console
[18:41] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, yes that should do, nvidia driver requires some extra packages like kernel-headers and build-essential so you need to have wired internet connection since its kinda of a pain to configure wireless from command line if worst comes to worst
[18:41] <SlitazMint> When I mount NFS I get You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "red"
[18:41] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, ah then you should be ok.
[18:42] <iceroot> SlitazMint: red is the dir?
[18:43] <adknight87> Anyone know a easy to use voice recognition that responds with verbal answers
[18:43] <SlitazMint> iceroot, yes
[18:43] <iceroot> SlitazMint: remeber that nfs is NOT checking usernames, its just checking uids
[18:43] <iceroot> SlitazMint: so if the owner has uid 1000 and you have 1001 you are not the owner even when you have the same username
[18:43] <HTC-DZ> dcherniv_ wired internet connection i can do. one more thing, my system is an amd 64 single core 4
[18:43] <ki7rw> wastrel: thanks for the link - but the command hp-uninstall doesn't seem to exist
[18:44] <SlitazMint> my /nfs/exports on the server is like this:/red -network <IP_ADDRESS> -mask <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:44] <dcherniv_> HTC-DZ, 64 bit shouldnt be a problem
[18:44] <HTC-DZ> 4000+ with 4 gb ddr 400 ram. u think its enough to run ubuntu 12.10 64 bit?
[18:44] <SlitazMint> iceroot, I don't think I have users even set up in NFS, it's just free for all.
[18:44] <dcherniv_> SlitazMint, man this rings some bells, i cant quite recall though what was the problem
[18:44] <SlitazMint> Not sure though, how do I check?
[18:45] <iceroot> SlitazMint: the permissions are on the filesystem/dirs not nfs
[18:45] <SlitazMint> Oh, how do I check for that then?
[18:45] <wastrel> ki7rw: you can probably skip that step if you haven't installed HP's drivers yet
[18:45] <iceroot> SlitazMint: every user froom remote can access that dir if his uid is the same as the owner/group
[18:45] <wastrel> ki7rw: and proceed with the rest of the driver installation steps
[18:46] <SlitazMint> How do I check the UID for /red and the UID I have in Ubuntu?
[18:46] <wastrel> what's /red pls
[18:47] <wastrel> you mean the owner & group uid
[18:47] <wastrel> you can type uid to see the current uid of the user or uid <some username> to see the uid of the username
[18:48] <wastrel> you can do ls -dn /red to see the uid of the owner and group of the /red directory
[18:48] <HTC-DZ> dcherniv_ ah ok, thanks so much. il do it tomorrow. gonna get sme sleep. laters

[19:04] <eindoofus> hi, I was attempting to download the 64 version of ubuntu for my intel machine and "ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso" popped-up for download. Is this the correct file?
[19:04] <ikonia> yes
[19:04] <thiebaude> yes it is
[19:05] <eindoofus> thanks
[19:05] <episteme>  /window show 4
[19:05] <episteme> oops
[19:06] <cyxi> IS there any change of speed between *64 and *32 ?
[19:07] <thiebaude> cyxi, i didn't notice any difference
[19:07] <eindoofus> while I'm here I might as well ask. Is it the case that Linux Mint has taken over as the top distro, or is it just Distrowatch giving bad results?
[19:07] <cyxi> OK thiebaude
[19:07] <ikonia> cyxi: nothing you will see with your eyes
[19:07] <noiro> eindoofus, not sure about that one. Mint has always given me bugs.
[19:08] <ikonia> eindoofus: we don't know distrowatchs status/validity
[19:08] <noiro> Ubuntu has far better driver support imo
[19:08] <escott> cyxi, 64bit can potentially be faster because there are more registers
[19:09] <ikonia> noiro: its the same kernel....so it will have identical driver support
[19:09] <HorizonXP> hey guys, I'm probably going to get reamed for this question, but does anyone know where I can find steps to install Ubuntu on a Chromebook? Also, how's actual day-to-day performance?

[19:09] <eindoofus> escott: more registers?
[19:10] <Guest46742> bonsoir est ce qu'il ya des francais
[19:10] <eindoofus> escott: I think you mean more virtual memory. Then again I could be wrong too. But I'm pretty sure it has nothing to due with registers
[19:12] <cyxi> IS there a way to hide the launcher bar on the left ?
[19:12] <eindoofus> cyxi: I was just looking at this and I think it's relevant to what your talking about: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/238494-50-32bit-64bit-virtual-machines
[19:12] <thiebaude> cyxi, auto hide

[19:28] <adknight87> Anyone know how to add functions to a launcher icon
[19:28] <adknight87> in unity
[19:29] <wastrel> adknight87: i made a launcher icon that calls a script
[19:29] <wastrel> there's a howto somewhere
[19:29] <IdleOne> adknight87: you would edit the  dot .desktop file for that launcher
[19:30] <adknight87> well I've made a *.desktop that launches a script on my own that part was easy
[19:30] <god_is_dead> hail
[19:31] <adknight87> but now when you right click and get that nice menu I was wondering if you can add for instance new tab like in chromium
[19:31] <pikaciu> god_is_dead: i'm not fine as well ! :-)
[19:31] <IdleOne> adknight87: you can, use the chromium.desktop file as an example. I don't know precisely how to do it.
[19:33] <Chucrute301> anyone liked the new ubuntu icons ?!
[19:33] <adknight87> IdleOne: Well this is for a wine application for integration like adding another link in that menu
[19:33] <Chucrute301> ?
[19:34] <IdleOne> adknight87: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/167304/how-to-create-desktop-files-and-new-menu-without-alacarte This might be useful
[19:34] <wastrel> adknight87: seems like you just add a [Desktop Action <name of action>] section and go crazy
[19:34] <wastrel> adknight87: looking at the thunderbird.desktop file
[19:34] <Chucrute301> :)
[19:36] <sadnoob> hello

[19:37] <adknight87> IdleOne: Info link in that post is broken. wastrel, could you go into details with that say I wanted to add a command
[19:37] <dfgas-cr48> this is for 12.04

[19:40] <wastrel> adknight87: in a terminal do locate chromium.desktop, then look at the file that will give you the examples you need.  i checked /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop  and found the menu items there
[19:40] <Dr_willis> this is not backtracksupport NetJester

[19:42] <NetJester> IdleOne: hurr durr
[19:42] <Dr_willis> NetJester,  i dont care what you use.  if you want ubuntu support.. then you need to be using ubuntu. else take it to a differnt channel

[19:43] <eindoofus> has anyone here run Windows 7 as a VM on Linux? I need to be able to use my Windows 7 apps and I can't risk them half-working.
[19:44] <altermann> i've inherited this Ubuntu desktop/server which is running 12.04 LTS or something to that extent and both KDE and Gnome are installed
[19:44] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  its commonly done.
[19:44] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  the specific apps may be the issue
[19:44] <bobweaver> eightfold,  yeah I do and also 8 vista and xp
[19:44] <noiro> Ubuntu 12.10 is a safe transition from 12.04, yes?
[19:44] <altermann> i've removed VBox 4.1 which was distributed via the Ubuntu software centre for QT front end and now i cannot install Vbox 4.2 from Oracle
[19:44] <k1l> eindoofus: performance could be an issue. or 3d support
[19:45] <eindoofus> how well does it run?
[19:45] <eindoofus> I'm not too worried about the 3d part
[19:45] <Dr_willis> totally depends on your system specs eindoofus
[19:45] <eindoofus> I don't really run games or 3d modeling applications
[19:45] <savio> eindoofus, i'm using win 7 for office and vmware 8 new feature also has unity support
[19:45] <k1l> eindoofus: that depends on your pc hardware, your usecase under linux, you use case on win, the win apps,....
[19:46] <bobweaver> eindoofus,  depends on the things that I am trying to  run like setting up VBox you can set things like ram ammount of cpu   3d graphics ect depends on how much ram you have and also cpus
[19:46] <savio> eindoofus, and it works fine if you have ram more 3
[19:46] <eindoofus> I guess a better question is whether a Linux host with a Windows 7 VM is about the same performance as a Windows 7 host with a Linux VM (which is what I do now).
[19:47] <bobweaver> eindoofus,  there is also things like qemu which is also a good vm then there is vmware also
[19:47] <eindoofus> wait... no. that isn't a better question. let me rephrase that. lol
[19:47] <noiro> how good of 3D quality could I get out of a Windows 7 Virtual box if i gave it 4GB RAM and used my GTX560 card?
[19:47] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  it will all depend on what you need to do IN the vm
[19:47] <savio> eindoofus, if you wanted to learn linux make it host so you can spend more time on host m/c than vm
[19:47] <k1l> eindoofus: honestly, just give it a try
[19:48] <eindoofus> I need to be able to run Visual Studio and develop in it.
[19:48] <k1l> noone will guarantee you anything
[19:48] <Dr_willis> Its getting where i need windows for very very few things these days
[19:48] <Rikplay> What can i do to my ubuntu install to ensure it will load when a put the hdd into a new computer?
[19:48] <Katbuntu> Hi
[19:48] <sid|1> just bought 8gb of ram
[19:48] <noiro> Rikplay, not possible. :P
[19:48] <eindoofus> I think I will. Is there a free VM solution that is still high performance?
[19:48] <altermann> can anybody help me with this issue? http://pastebin.com/D2Q5cQBY
[19:49] <noiro> Each installation has drivers needed for that hardware. A new computer has different hardware.
[19:49] <Dr_willis> Rikplay,  if the bootloader is on the HD and thats HD is set to boot.. it should boot..
[19:49] <Rikplay> noiro, please elaborate
[19:49] <Dr_willis> ive moved hds from differnt machines with only small issues..  it depends on how similer the 2 machines are
[19:49] <noiro> Rikplay, you'd need to backup your data and reinstall. That's when drivers are established and installed based on that hardware of that system.
[19:49] <Dr_willis> noiro,  thats not totally true. it depends on a lot of things
[19:50] <noiro> Unless the new machine had identical mobo, cpu, graphics, etc.
[19:50] <Rikplay> Dr_willis: thank you, grub loads ubuntu all goes well, but it does stop at some point. i suspect its because old pc had nvidia and new has amd, would you agree this could be an issue
[19:50] <Dr_willis> Rikplay,  differnt video cards would be an issue. but not too hard to correct
[19:51] <eindoofus> is dual-booting still an option? I remember last time playing with that didn't work out. Has Windows 7 done something to keep that from working cleanly?
[19:51] <Rikplay> Dr_willis: Thank you, could you point me in some sort of direction where i could correct this, i assume i need to install the amd driver on the old machinbe 1st, is this correct
[19:51] <phibxr> eindoofus: Hmm? I've dual booted with both Windows 7 and Windows 8.
[19:52] <pikaciu> Dr_willis: the linux kernel should have inside a lot of different drivers or not ?
[19:52] <phibxr> eindoofus: Just make sure to install Windows first since it does its best to destroy GRUB when you install it.
[19:52] <eindoofus> phibxr: have you played any games on Windows 8. I'd like to have the option to develop Windows 8 apps and develop games. Thinking about throwing it on another partition
[19:52] <Evil_Eric> i dont know what feels better 1,000.00 in my pocket or the fact i have found a xchat-indicator bug that has been confermed
[19:52] <Rikplay> Dr_willis: situation:- selling laptop but will keep drive and date, just give away a different drive with new install
[19:53] <phibxr> eindoofus: Only World of Warcraft. But I think both Windows 8 and World of Warcraft are a bit offtopic for #ubuntu. :)
[19:53] <eindoofus> can I message you (if that's what irc calls it)? :P
[19:53] <adknight87> Okay not so easy as I thought it didn't add the edits I had done to the *.desktop
[19:54] <phibxr> eindoofus: Sure thing, go ahead.
[19:56] <hs366> Hi
[19:58] <noiro> Hey guys, quick question. I just upgraded to 12.10 from 12.04. It would appear the new drivers missed my sound card (worked before by default). Any solutions?
[20:00] <pikaciu> noiro : alsamixer ?
[20:00] <Rikplay> OK Anyone - Is it possible to create USB bottable ubuntu which will boot on a large variety of computer hardware?
[20:00] <noiro> pikaciu: ?
[20:00] <Dr_willis> Rikplay,  you can remove/install the drivers from the console. or remove the drivers befor you remove the HD.
[20:01]  * ki7rw got his new printer working on ubuntu 12.10 - took a bit of work though
[20:01] <Dr_willis> Rikplay,  a live USB install does exactly that.
[20:01] <pikaciu> noiro : type the command : alsamixer
[20:01] <noiro> pikaciu: On the sound settings, all I see for output is Dummy Output
[20:01] <Mark6> yes it is Rikplay
[20:01] <Dr_willis> Rikplay,  a full install to USB will work for most hardware, unless theres specific drivers needed
[20:01] <noiro> pikaciu, no such file
[20:01] <eindoofus> hmmm. I just installed ubuntu and I'm somewhat confused. What is all of this amazon crap? I was trying to search for synatpic and 6 products showed up... It's a freakin OS, not a marketplace. What's going on?
[20:02] <Dr_willis> !adlens
[20:02] <Mark6> eindoofus synaptic is gone, it's all in software center now
[20:02] <Dr_willis> The Dash is the 'ultimate search starting point'
[20:02] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  you can install synaptic if you want it.
[20:02] <MonkeyDust> i have
[20:02] <Rikplay> Ok thanks you guys mostly Dr_willis i will research forward from here
[20:02] <Dr_willis> 'not installed by default' is not the same as 'gone' ;)
[20:03] <eindoofus> can I file a complaint somewhere. There is a reason I like open-source (because I'm an idealistic bastard) and this goes against why I'm here.
[20:03] <eindoofus> this should not be the default imo
[20:03] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  it wont matter.. ubuntu and amazon are being very friendly with each other.
[20:03] <Dr_willis> eindoofus,  if you dont like it. then disable it.
[20:03] <pikaciu> noiro : in Default mixer tracks ?
[20:04] <noiro> pikaciu: What do you mean?
[20:04] <Dr_willis> theres been hundreds of blog articals and so on about the amazon  search results
[20:04] <eindoofus> is there something good coming from this amazon/ubuntu fondling?
[20:04] <pikaciu> noiro : in Preference - Sound
[20:04] <eindoofus> bad choice of words. lol
[20:04] <Dr_willis> read the info mentioned in the factoid above.
[20:04] <eindoofus> sorry
[20:04] <MonkeyDust> eindoofus  depends on how you use it or what you like about it
[20:04] <noiro> If I go to Sound > Applications, I see Spotify and ALSA plug-in
[20:04] <Mark6> he< I got a question too, I did a fresh install of 12.04 and noticed the fonts on facebook.com look very different then usual, anybody knows what this is?
[20:05] <MonkeyDust> eindoofus  "good" is a matter of taste
[20:05] <noiro> I'm using gnome-shell
[20:06] <eindoofus> to a degree
[20:06] <pikaciu> Dr_willis: it is possible that the command - alsamixer - returns - file not found ?
[20:06] <stephan_arch> hey guys, I installed ubuntu 12LTS, now I want to make my start process a bit beautyfull, I want to remove the dark purple and replace that with the plymouth animation, how can I do that?
[20:06] <eindoofus> me shooting someone in the head is obviously "not good". you could agree with that right.
[20:07] <Mark6> unless he tried to shoot your wife first
[20:07] <guntbert> !ot | eindoofus ranting here does not help
[20:07] <eindoofus> still not good overall, be justifiable
[20:07] <MonkeyDust> eindoofus  canonical cannot change a complete system because of one individual's preferences
[20:07] <eindoofus> lol, sorry
[20:07] <k1l> eindoofus: do you have a real support issue? for chitty chat we have the offtopic and discuss channels
[20:07] <noiro> pikaciu: I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
[20:07] <noiro> "
[20:08] <pikaciu> noiro : oh
[20:08] <eindoofus> I'm done alright. Just coming to terms with the Amazon crap.
[20:08] <Mark6> another question, I noticed my mouse curser is blinking and disappearing frequently, how can I deactivate this? I remember there was an option for this in 10.04, but can't find one in 12.04 (already tried the keyboard settings)
[20:10] <pikaciu> noiro : can you right click on the sound icon ?
[20:11] <noiro> pikaciu: yes. I can navigate to sound settings
[20:11] <pikaciu> noiro : Preferences ?
[20:12] <noiro> not preferences (i'm using gnome, remember), sound settings
[20:12] <stephan_arch> anyone?:(
[20:13] <pikaciu> noiro : try to open the menus regarding - device .
[20:13] <Dreamer3> is Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS not compatible with linux 3.6?

[20:13] <MonkeyDust> !plymouth > stephan_arch  read this
[20:13] <eindoofus> is there a search bar in "ubuntu software center"? not sure if my VM resolution is just cutting something off.
[20:14] <Mark6> yes there is
[20:14] <Mark6> top right
[20:14] <eindoofus> uh oh. I think it is cut off
[20:14] <noiro> pikaciu: nothing shows for my hardware. I'm using a Z77 board so it's still fairly new, but 12.04 supported it so.... not sure what is going on.
[20:16] <Pkunk> kernel.ubuntu.com down ... is there a mirror thats working ?
[20:16] <pikaciu> noiro : Additional Drivers ?
[20:16] <Tashtego> can anyone tell me why i see a shady graphic in my bottom right side of the desktop telling me "AMD - unsupported hardware" ?
[20:17] <Mark6> no but have you checked for proprietary drivers?
[20:17] <noiro> pikaciu, how would I find that in gnome? I don't see it anywhere.
[20:17] <pikaciu> noiro : i'm quite sure is there
[20:18] <Tashtego> Mark6, when i go to System Settings -> Additional Drivers, it tells me ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics drivers are installed
[20:18] <pikaciu> noiro : All Apps - Theme & Tweaks

[20:45] <kristenbb> hi, in 12.04, how can I easily access a list of all installed software, if possible arranged by categories, as was the case in 10.04 for example ?
[20:45] <kaleo_> WHAT IS A BOT?
[20:45] <k1l> beaky: compared to debian-stable its way more up-to.date
[20:46] <Mark6> it's short for "robot"
[20:46] <Mark6> ;)
[20:46] <pikaciu> noiro : try sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev
[20:46] <WeThePeople> kristenbb, software center
[20:46] <kaleo_> good!!
[20:47] <noiro> pikaciu, I try sudo apt-get update
[20:47] <noiro> and then apt-get upgrade
[20:47] <noiro> And nothing needs upgrading. :P
[20:47] <k1l> kristenbb: "dpkg -l" shows all that is installed. but its alphabetical order
[20:47] <pikaciu> noiro: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[20:48] <noiro> pikaciu: nothing upgraded
[20:48] <noiro> It's not recognizing my sound hardware at all. Not even my USB speakers. I think it doesn't have the driver for my sound card.
[20:48] <kaleo_> i can't talk with the brazzilian chat suport!!
[20:49] <pikaciu> noiro: lspci and search for Multimedia or something related to sound
[20:50] <Mark6> I kinda like this place, probably will come back tomorrow. Have a good night everybody
[20:50] <k1l> kaleo_: read the topic in that channel. and register with the irc network like its told in the wiki link in the topic
[20:50] <noiro> pikaciu: 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 04)
[20:50] <noiro> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)
[20:50] <kaleo_> i did this!
[20:50] <noiro> 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)
[20:50] <k1l> kaleo_: then identify with the network. you are not identified at the moment
[20:51] <Guest55355> hi guys. I use gnome 3 on ubuntu 12.04. when i install plugin under gimp the window is going outside the desktop. just don know how to fix it. please see the upload of the screen shot to see how it looks. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2yvuwzt&s=6

[20:53] <BluesKaj>  noiro, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , no output indicates the driver loaded properly
[20:55] <BluesKaj> noiro, you probly have to reboot
[20:55] <anonymous> hi
[20:56] <k1l> Guest55355: on unity you can grab with the pushed alt-key and push it upwards
[20:56] <noiro> BluesKaj: No output. :/
[20:57] <BluesKaj> noiro, that's good , it means the driver loaded
[20:57] <noiro> then why is there no detection of my hardware? e.o
[20:57] <pikaciu> noiro: aplay -l
[20:57] <Guest55355> k1l, is there any fix on gnome 3?
[20:58] <BluesKaj> noiro, reboot
[20:58] <noiro> no soundcards found
[20:58] <k1l> Guest55355: sry, dont know
[20:58] <noiro> alright, one sec
[20:58] <BluesKaj> okm, nm , do it your way , noiro
[20:58] <webfox> Is it true Ubuntu Server doesn' t comes with dhclient client installed by default ?
[20:58] <pikaciu> noiro: restart
[20:59] <Guest55355> k1l on unity, can u explain me how exactly should i be doing that. press alt key and then resize it, is that the way?
[20:59] <webfox> How do I install dhclient please ?
[20:59] <juan_> hola que tal gente
[20:59] <usr13> webfox: I don't know, but sounds logical.
[20:59] <webfox> Or beter yet, how do I verify if it is already installed ?
[20:59] <webfox> better
[20:59] <Muelli> webfox: hm. apt-cache policy dhclient  maybe.
[21:01] <k1l> Guest55355: press alt and grab the titlebar from that window and push it beyond the screen
[21:01] <Muelli> webfox:      dhcp3-client
[21:01] <kaleo_> ubottu are a real people??  :/ Why didn't it work on first boot after update?
[21:01] <Muelli> no
[21:01] <lovinda> hi ubottu
[21:01] <Muelli> isc-dhcp-client
[21:01] <webfox> Muelli, so it already has it installed?
[21:02] <pikaciu> noiro: it works ?
[21:02] <noiro> pikaciu: with flying colors. :/
[21:02] <kaleo_> what mean?
[21:02] <pikaciu> noiro: it means yes ?
[21:03] <MrTorque> Hi! I want to set up ubuntu with DNS for small office. Do i need to configure it as "Caching Server" or as "Primary Master Server"? (referring https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIND9ServerHowto )
[21:03] <k1l> webfox: dhclient is installed on ubuntu
[21:04] <noiro> yes
[21:04] <beaky> is ubuntu server like archlinux?
[21:04] <pikaciu> noiro: ok.... so it's :-) not : / (it means sad) ....  :P
[21:04] <beaky> i.e. a minimal base to start from?
[21:04] <k1l> beaky: is a apple like a cherry? :/
[21:05] <k1l> beaky: you want the minimal install not the server install then.
[21:05] <beaky> oh
[21:05] <beaky> right thanks
[21:05] <beaky> I am installing every linux distro on my 2TB rig
[21:06] <guntbert> webfox: you are talking about ubuntu-server - please better ask in #ubuntu-server
[21:06] <kaleo_> i use a 3g modem and i want chang the dsns adress for a better. Is it possible? i changed of my computer but the modem do not acepted!
[21:07] <Tweak> hello. i am looking for a program that i could set a keypress (example control f1) and have it enter a string of text such as a web address or email address. i have no idea what such a program would be called, i tried searching google.... any ideas?
[21:09] <kaleo_> Tweak_ Mesoniac..
[21:10] <BluesKaj> Tweak, ctrl+c ?
[21:10] <peepsalot> does anyone here use audacity?   the menus don't show up making it unusable
[21:10] <melfy> there a way to cache a folder in memory?  would like to have an entire www folder run from memory its only about 1MB worth of php files :/
[21:11] <Tweak> kaleo_, thank you i will look into it :D
[21:11] <Riley88> hey guys i have a question on 12.04 i changed the lightdm login wallpaper but when it starts light dm it flashes the old pink wallpaper is there a way to fix that
[21:11] <Xix19> does anyone here have experience with nginx configuration?
[21:11] <stephan_arch> does anybody know where I can get different plymouth animations?
[21:11] <melfy> Xix19: lil bit what you trying to do?
[21:11] <Xix19> melfy: I'm trying to disable gzip for a single php file
[21:12] <Xix19> melfy: I have a "location \.php {" which works just fine, but I only want to disable gzip compression for this particular file
[21:12] <overclucker> melfy: /tmp
[21:12] <Riley88> does anyone know what im talking about
[21:12] <melfy> overclucker: no other way? ;_;
[21:12] <Xix19> I know the configuration directive is "gzip off" but how do I add it only for this file?
[21:13] <melfy> Xix19:  try... location ~ ^/filename.php {gzip off;}
[21:13] <fjodor> hi, is it possible to underclock or underclock i3 cpu?
[21:13] <fjodor> undervolt or underclock
[21:13] <melfy> fjodor: isnt that more of a bios thing?
[21:14] <stephan_arch> anyone?:(
[21:14] <Logan_> !patience | stephan_arch
[21:14] <Xix19> melfy: now when I access the file it downloads it
[21:14] <melfy> haha
[21:14] <Xix19> I think it doesn't go through the original "location \.php$ {" anymore
[21:14] <melfy> put your proxy pass in there too
[21:14] <kaleo_> guys, say me something.. I want a Linux system! what is the better?
[21:15] <guntbert> !best | kaleo_
[21:15] <Xix19> I have to copy everything in "location \.php$ {" ? It's very long
[21:15] <melfy> Xix19: try putting location below the php$ ?
[21:15] <k1l> kaleo_: go with ubuntu. thats it
[21:15] <overclucker> melfy: that's the easiest way. you could also mount a new tmpfs.
[21:15] <Riley88> okay anyone? this is really starting to bug me because i changed my boot animation and itll still flash the pink wallpaper
[21:15] <Logan_> !patience | Riley88
[21:16] <melfy> overclucker: is tmpfs cleared on a reboot?
[21:16] <melfy> would probably have to re-copy files to there on a boot before webserver starts?
[21:17] <overclucker> melfy: yes. /tmp is tmpfs, btw
[21:17] <kaleo_> guntbert_ thanks!!!!
[21:18] <chaospsychex> can someone explain the grub loopback process ? i want to install ubuntu onto a partition that contains a existing distro. i can't format the partition because it's mounted. used grub to boot the debian iso which is on /dev/sda1 @ /boot/iso.
[21:18] <overclucker> melfy: you could probably modify your web server's upstart script to handle that.
[21:19] <melfy> overclucker: i am testing to see if it even helps hehe.... ty ty :) :)
[21:19] <Xix19> melfy: if I move it under it ignores it completely
[21:19] <chaospsychex> but i don't exactly understan what's happening with mounts and such when a iso is booted using grub loopback. the documentation is vague about it
[21:19] <melfy> Xix19: u can try moving everything inside of php$ to an include, and include that in any php derivites
[21:19] <ok_wait> chaospsychex, are you trying to install ubuntu to the device that holds the installation medium?
[21:19] <chaospsychex> ok_wait: yes
[21:20] <melfy> location php$ {include /etc/nginx/php.conf; extra stuff;}
[21:20] <Dr_willis> chaospsychex,  you would bneed to put the ISO file on its own partion thats not going to be formated during the install to be safest.
[21:20] <ok_wait> chaospsychex, partition it
[21:20] <melfy> Xix19:  that way it's cleaner in all your configs
[21:20] <Xix19> melfy: trying now
[21:20] <chaospsychex> Dr_willis: i tried putting it onto the swap parition after re-formatting swap to ext4 but i get errors in grub when trying to boot the iso if it's on /dev/sda5
[21:20] <Dr_willis> I normally have a /boot/ partion of like 6 gb. that way i can keep several ISO files on it.
[21:20] <edgy> Hi, what are the use cases of pulseaudio, I can play many files together without it
[21:21] <chaospsychex> ok_wait: what ?
[21:21] <Dr_willis> chaospsychex,  it should be able to boot the iso from that partion if you configure grub right.
[21:21] <chaospsychex> Dr_willis: ok. maybe the syntax was wrong
[21:22] <Dr_willis> http://www.otsglobal.org/2012/11/how-to-boot-an-iso-file-from-your-hard-drive-via-grub2-under-ubuntulinux-mint/ seems a decent guide.
[21:23] <Dr_willis> i always put mine on sda1 - so i knew it was (hd0,1)
[21:23] <chaospsychex> Dr_willis: /sda5 would be (hd0,5) ?
[21:23] <Dr_willis> I recall even booting them from a NTFS windows partion
[21:24] <Dr_willis> chaospsychex,  i would think so,, or you could make severl grub entries for the same iso with diffnert (hd0,X) entries and try them all
[21:24] <chaospsychex> Dr_willis: yes
[21:25] <Dr_willis> I normally dont install using this method. i tend to set up the ISO files after im installed for testing and recovery booting
[21:28] <juniour> hi
[21:29] <AceBlade258> alrighty, anybody here that can help me install some drivers
[21:30] <phunyguy_t430s> AceBlade258: just state your problem in it's entirety, bub.
[21:30] <AceBlade258> I'm on 10.04
[21:30] <AceBlade258> one sec
[21:30] <phunyguy_t430s> one line preferrably.
[21:31] <Xix19> melfy: thank you it worked like a charm!
[21:31] <Thy-Duang> My Ubuntu has shutdowns, freezes a lot and has a lot of crashes, bugs etc. I'm using the newest stable version x64. How can I fix this problem?
[21:31] <phunyguy_t430s> Thy-Duang: fully updated/
[21:31] <phunyguy_t430s> ?
[21:31] <Thy-Duang> Yes
[21:32] <Thy-Duang> Despite the fact, that some updates cause crash on the first try
[21:32] <melfy> Xix19: welcome :P
[21:32] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: freezes, shutdowns, crashes... sounds like hardware problems
[21:32] <ok_wait> Thy-Duang, check your logs and look for errors (/var/log) google those errors and you should find a solution
[21:32] <Thy-Duang> As for now, my Windows 7 is flawless and Ubuntu is terrible
[21:32] <AceBlade258> lspci output: http://pastebin.com/W25v251Q
[21:32] <AceBlade258> I'm running 10.04 x64 to build android. I don't have drivers for my network card and I can't figure out how to install them. I'm tethered using my phone at the moment.
[21:33] <Thy-Duang> How do I look for errors if my Ubuntu shuts down without any warning?
[21:33] <Dr_willis> Thy-Duang,  was this a clean install or a Upgrade?
[21:33] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: do you just want to rant? Do it elswhere please
[21:33] <Thy-Duang> Clean install
[21:33] <Thy-Duang> I don't want to rant, I want to fix the problem
[21:34] <Dr_willis> Thy-Duang,  you could monitor your logs as the system is running from a seperate box via ssh and hope to find some error messages/info/clues
[21:34] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: the we need details - start looking into /var/log/syslog
[21:34] <guntbert> *then
[21:34] <Random832> how do i install pygtk for python 3 on ubuntu?
[21:34] <Thy-Duang> Ok, I will change to Ubuntu and reconnect
[21:34] <Dr_willis> Could be anything from overheating, to power flucations.
[21:34] <Thy-Duang> Thanks a lot
[21:35] <Thy-Duang> Bah, that's the point. My laptop heats much more when on Ubuntu than on Windows
[21:36] <dtcrshr> Thy-Duang: I had an dv4 hp notebook that was at least twice as hot with ubuntu than with windows
[21:36] <guntbert> Dr_willis: overheating might be a possibility definitely
[21:36] <Thy-Duang> Ok, I thought it;s strange
[21:36] <Thy-Duang> But I'm totally green
[21:36] <Thy-Duang> Ok, brb with my var/log/syslog
[21:36] <Dr_willis> PyGTK 2.24.0 has been released. This is a stable release supporting the GTK+ 2.24 API    ... from the pygtk homepage... dosent seem like it supports the GTK3 stuff
[21:36] <Thy-Duang> Thanks a lot
[21:37] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: put it in a !pastebin
[21:37] <Thy-Duang> Ok
[21:37] <Dr_willis> !info pygtk
[21:37] <Dr_willis> !find pygtk
[21:37] <Cordel^> i need help
[21:37] <Dr_willis> we need details..
[21:37] <brainard52> Hello everybody. My audio just quit working, and I was wondering where I would start looking to get information on why it may have stopped. I'm using 12.04 if that helps any.
[21:38] <Cordel^> my Ubuntu is bootinf to a initramfs prompt
[21:38] <Cordel^> i am scared
[21:38] <AceBlade258> From what I understand, these drivers should have been installed during installation. However, I had no network connection during installation, and I'm guessing (despite it's LTS status) because 10.04 predates Cougar Point/Sandy Bridge, the drivers aren't included.
[21:38] <trism> Random832: for gtk3 you use gobject introspection to use gtk from python, for instance: from gi.repository import Gtk, then use the Gtk module in much the same way as the old python-gtk2
[21:39] <trism> Random832: though there are definite differences which you will encounter along the way
[21:39] <Cordel^> do i need to reinstall?
[21:39] <k1l> AceBlade258: dont you think its just not activated? usually you dont need special drivers for lan cards
[21:40] <Dr_willis> Cordel^,  given that you aparently havent tried anything to fix it yet... a reinstall would be premature.
[21:40] <AceBlade258> k1l: how would I check?
[21:40] <Cordel^> ive always been a premature guy
[21:40] <Dr_willis> you could always backup your imporntant stuff and reinstall if you wanted to i guess.
[21:41] <alex_wanspot> otik
[21:41] <k1l> AceBlade258: ifconfig
[21:41] <k1l> AceBlade258: because its listed in lspci
[21:41] <AceBlade258> if you mean bios-level, I know it's active there, otherwise lspci wouldnt report it
[21:41] <Cordel^> i need someone smart to fix my problem so i can take credit
[21:41] <angs> Hi I create an ad-hoc network by using wpa_supplicant without any problem. However, the wireless interface does not get the static IP that I defined. I would appreciate if anyone could help me on this. here is the settings http://pastebin.com/yYL3SAnb
[21:41] <Dr_willis> Cordel^,  id start with a live cd and that boot-repair tool
[21:41] <AceBlade258> the adapter isn't listed, just a loopback and my phone
[21:42] <DigitalYeti> hey, does anyone know if I swap out the mobo/processor/ram in my machine if it will cause issues with the current install of ubuntu on the hard drive? I mean, can I do that? or will I have to reinstall and start from scratch?
[21:43] <sid|1> kj som im building a comp
[21:43] <sid|1> so im*
[21:43] <AceBlade258> I'm fairly sure it's a lack of drivers
[21:43] <sid|1> if i buy 2 diffrent brands of ram
[21:43] <sid|1> with diffrent timing will it still work?
[21:43] <Thy-Duang> Got it: http://pastiebin.com/?page=p&id=50afee0ea0a3e
[21:44] <AceBlade258> sid|1: hypothetically
[21:44] <sid|1> k thanks
[21:44] <Thy-Duang> It shutsdown at random occastions: last time I ran tetris made by my friend, one time I asked Skype to show history...
[21:44] <AceBlade258> sid|1: better to stick with matched ram
[21:44] <sid|1> ok
[21:44] <usr13> DigitalYeti: No, it'll be fine
[21:44] <AceBlade258> voltages and whatnot are a pain
[21:45] <sid|1> srry not diffrent brands
[21:45] <sid|1> but same brand
[21:45] <brainard52> Hello everybody. My audio just quit working, and I was wondering where I would start looking to get information on why it may have stopped. I'm using 12.04 if that helps any.
[21:45] <DigitalYeti> usr13: I know with windows I've had issues, but I thought linux would handle it fine. Cool, thanks! :)
[21:45] <usr13> brainard52: alsamixer
[21:45] <MonkeyDust> brainard52  open a terminal and type alsamixer
[21:45] <AceBlade258> I'm currently using samsung and g.skill
[21:46] <AceBlade258> sid|1: if they are different speeds, make sure you set all the speeds to the lower
[21:46] <brainard52> usr13: I feel a bit silly now. I don't know why I didn't think about that. Thanks.
[21:46] <sid|1> ok
[21:46] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: that covers only 12 minutes - without a start or a shutdown - too short for us to see any problems
[21:47] <sid|1> there all ddr3- 1866
[21:47] <angs> Hi I create an ad-hoc network by using wpa_supplicant without any problem. However, the wireless interface does not get the static IP that I defined. I would appreciate if anyone could help me on this. here is the settings http://pastebin.com/yYL3SAnb
[21:47] <Thy-Duang> So how can I provide you more information?
[21:47] <AceBlade258> keep in mind, Higher-speed ram tends to have slower timings. when you underclock it, the timings are still going to be slower
[21:47] <AceBlade258> meaning you will have higher-latency overall on your ram, decreasing performance
[21:48] <Cordel^> what is the INITRAMFS prompt and how do i boot out of it?
[21:48] <Thy-Duang> Wait for a shutdown, save a log and immediately paste it here?
[21:48] <AceBlade258> however, unless you are doing things the require a lot of memory operations, the difference shouldn't be a big deal
[21:49] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, you should be my fortune... i log on and get some nice information like that handed to me instead of my fortune...
[21:49] <AceBlade258> BoomerBile: thanks :)
[21:49] <guntbert> Thy-Duang: the are several log files /var/log/syslog /var/log/syslog.1 /var/log/syslog.2.gz,....
[21:49] <Thy-Duang> Ah, ok
[21:49] <guntbert> *there are
[21:50] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, you know what fortune is right?
[21:50] <Thy-Duang> How do I find that it's the right one?
[21:50] <AceBlade258> nope
[21:50] <Cordel^> please help i dont want to have to reinstall again
[21:50] <guite__> alguien con vida?
[21:50] <Dr_willis> older logs are the ones with the #'s and compressed Thy-Duang
[21:51] <Dr_willis> Cordel^,  either the bootloader or grub or the kernl is confused about somthing. the  boot-repair tool MIGHT fix it all
[21:51] <BoomerBile> well, back in the days when we mostly used consoles, it was a program that would deliver you a fortune, weather that be a joke, advice, or just plain nonsense. They were always interesting to read... you can still install fortune and have it deliver your fortune when you log into a shell
[21:51] <linusoleander> I've problem running jar files in ubuntu. The always freezes. I'm not sure where to begin troubleshooting
[21:52] <AceBlade258> Cordel^: a quick google search suggested tuping exit
[21:52] <AceBlade258> *typing
[21:52] <AceBlade258> however, I'm absoloutely no expert
[21:52] <AceBlade258> so I have no idea weather that is reliable information
[21:53] <BoomerBile> What's the problem Cordel^ ?
[21:53] <Thy-Duang> Yeah, Dr_willis, but I have 7 of them. I can send you all of them, but I thought it will be easier if I find the right one and send only one.
[21:53] <Dr_willis> Thy-Duang,  wont do much good to send them to me., ;)
[21:53] <usr13> angs: wlan3?
[21:53] <brainard52> Hm. I'm going to grab a screenie. I feel a bit inept :/
[21:53] <Thy-Duang> Ok.

[21:54] <TaJMoX> Does anyone know a good calendar program that will sync with my Google account?
[21:54] <angs> usr13: it is the wifi module  that I have, system assign wlan3 for it
[21:55] <AceBlade258> BoomerBile: lol, i'll take it as a compliment
[21:55] <Thy-Duang> http://pastiebin.com/?page=p&id=50aff0af23859
[21:55] <usr13> angs: iwconfig wlan3 |pastebinit
[21:55] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, as it was intended
[21:55] <AceBlade258> so, can anybody help me install a network card driver
[21:55] <BoomerBile> sure
[21:55] <BoomerBile> what card?
[21:55] <AceBlade258> http://pastebin.com/W25v251Q

[21:56] <AceBlade258> Thanks :) It's an A2ZS
[21:57] <Krenair> I've just started using mv on a large directory, only to realise that my partition is full
[21:57] <Krenair> Can I safely ctrl + C and go clean up space?
[21:57] <bekks> AceBlade258: Could you pastebin the output of lspci -k and ifconfig -a please?
[21:57] <k1l> AceBlade258: seems like its this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1741686.html
[21:57] <brainard52> usr13, I figured I'd give you a screenshot. I can see you're helping somebody else atm, so I'll wait until you're finished. http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6512/alsap.png
[21:58] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, run update-pciids, i think that's still the command, they recently changed it on me in gentoo. then do lspci again maybe it will show you what that is exactly, i'll start looking it up with those numbers
[21:58] <Thy-Duang> Now: copying and pasting those logs (only Chromium, Archive Manager and terminal) and it says: an internal error of Ubuntu 12.04 occured.
[21:58] <superfake123> when I boot my laptop I get a message 'failed to start the X server' how can I fix? D:
[21:58] <Dr_willis> the apport error reporting system says stuff like that when it detexts any crash logs.
[21:58] <Evil_Eric> superfake try this sudo startx
[21:59] <k1l> Evil_Eric: no!
[21:59] <Thy-Duang> Ah, ok
[21:59] <Dr_willis> its info may give a clue what crashed and why
[21:59] <Thy-Duang> http://pastiebin.com/?page=p&id=50aff18f0f2e9
[21:59] <k1l> superfake123: dont do that

[21:59] <Dr_willis> superfake123,  could be your video drivers are confused or not instgalled properly. what is your bideo chipset?
[21:59] <MonkeyDust> superfake123  can you ctrl-alt F1 and login?
[21:59] <k1l> superfake123: start the xserver with: sudo start lightdm
[22:00] <superfake123> yes I'm in tty1
[22:00] <superfake123> or w/e it is
[22:00] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, looks like it uses the e1000e driver

[22:00] <k1l> superfake123: could you "pastebinit .xsession-errors" and show the link?
[22:00] <superfake123> it says lightdm start/running, process 1675
[22:01] <auronandace> BoomerBile: e1000 is ethernet, not wifi
[22:01] <BoomerBile> ah, a wireless card, you did not specify

[22:03] <BoomerBile> wait
[22:03] <usr13> angs: Wait, scratch that.
[22:03] <AceBlade258> is that a 32-bit driver?
[22:03] <superfake123> i wanna use lightdm and not mdm i dono where mdm came from
[22:03] <k1l> superfake123: which ubuntu is that exactly? or is it mint?
[22:03] <superfake123> ubuntu 12.10
[22:03] <AceBlade258> also, lan, wired
[22:03] <usr13> angs: Do you have network-manager installed and running?
[22:04] <Dr_willis> sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm                superfake123  to select lightdm
[22:04] <AceBlade258> intel H67 chipset
[22:04] <usr13> angs: If so, that may be the problem.
[22:04] <k1l> superfake123: with cinnamon from a ppa?
[22:04] <Dr_willis> mdm is mints name for their dm manager. its installable on ubuntu via a ppa
[22:04] <superfake123> yeah I have cinnamon installed
[22:04] <angs> usr13: I am using ubuntu-server, I am not sure if network-manager is installed.
[22:04] <k1l> superfake123: that is caused by the mint ppa. so  i think the mint guys should know how to fix their stuff
[22:04] <usr13> angs: Shouldn't be
[22:05] <Thy-Duang> Dr_willis, found anything interesting?
[22:05] <usr13> angs: ifconfig wlan3  | pastebinit
[22:05] <superfake123> ok i'll head over to mint thx
[22:05] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, you need the mei driver, in kernel 3.0.0-17-generic
[22:05] <Daytripper> hi some one who knows abit scripting?
[22:05] <Dr_willis> Thy-Duang,  with what? ive been playing skyrim ;)
[22:05] <simplew> how can i know to what package a certain script belongs?
[22:05] <Thy-Duang> With my Ubuntu shutting down and freezing
[22:05] <AceBlade258> BoomerBile: kernel update?
[22:05] <Thy-Duang> I pasted 7 syslogs
[22:05] <AceBlade258> never done that on linux
[22:06] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, probably
[22:06] <BoomerBile> can you get on the internet with it?
[22:06] <Thy-Duang> Want me to repaste them?
[22:06] <AceBlade258> it's a lot easier on android... lol
[22:06] <AceBlade258> BoomerBile: no, tethered on my phone
[22:06] <AceBlade258> at the moment
[22:06] <BoomerBile> um
[22:06] <BoomerBile> that's the internet
[22:06] <angs> usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1380622/    however, I assigned the IP address by ifconfig -a wlan3 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:06] <Dr_willis> i said i most likely wouldent be able to tell what was going on with them. if its totally random crashing with differnt apps at differnt times.. i would  be monitoring the system temps and perhaps trying a big fan on the pc,
[22:07] <AceBlade258> I feel like i missed something
[22:07] <Thy-Duang> Ok.
[22:07] <Thy-Duang> Do you know if installing other Linux can solve the problem? Fedora, Debian or w/e else?
[22:07] <BoomerBile> if your tethered to your phone, you probably did that for one reason right? to get on the internet? are you tethered to your phone with the pc that we're trying to fix? if so you should have the internet if it's tethered correctly
[22:08] <usr13> simplew: read /var/lib/dpkg/info/package-name.list
[22:08] <Dr_willis> Thy-Duang,  when in doubt.. test with a live cd.
[22:08] <AceBlade258> i do, and i see what you are saying now
[22:08] <BoomerBile> ok
[22:08] <Thy-Duang> Ok, thank you very much for your help
[22:08] <AceBlade258> i missed the context of the question, lol, my bad
[22:08] <usr13> angs: what was it before?
[22:08] <Thy-Duang> Goodnight
[22:08] <BoomerBile> now you can update your whole system or just the kernel.. do you use synaptic package manager AceBlade258 ? and no problem it happens.
[22:08] <AceBlade258> I'm actually on the offending computer right now,
[22:08] <angs> usr13: I run the wpa_supplicant configuration on two ubuntu server and they get the same cell ID, however when I assign the IP addresses by " ifconfig -a wlan3 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask 255.255.255" and "10.0.02" they cannot ping each other. I get Destination Host Unreachable error. do you know how I can ping them?
[22:08] <usr13> angs: Something from a dhcp pool somewhere on your LAN
[22:09] <angs> usr13:  it is an ad-hoc network, it did not get any IP since there is no dhcp
[22:09] <usr13> angs: "netmask 255.255.255"?
[22:10] <angs> sorry I copied wrong, there is also 0 at the end
[22:10] <usr13> angs: you mean <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[22:10] <angs> <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:10] <angs> yes
[22:10] <usr13> ok
[22:10] <FloodBot1> angs: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:10] <AceBlade258> yes
[22:10] <BoomerBile> i'm not in ubuntu, nor do i have access to it at the moment, can anyone give me the package name for the newest kernel image -generic?
[22:10] <JamesNZ> BoomerBile: 3.5.0-17 on my system.
[22:11] <usr13> angs: They both have the same essid?
[22:11] <usr13> showing in output of wiconfig
[22:11] <CorvusCorax> Hi. on Ubuntu 12.10, how do I change the power saving preferences, like CPU frequency scaling governor and the like. in the system panel under power I didn't find it, I think thats where it used to be
[22:11] <BoomerBile> JamesNZ, so sudo apt-get install image-3.5.0-17-generic that for 64 bit?
[22:11] <angs> usr13: yes, the same essid and cell id
[22:11] <MonkeyDust> BoomerBile  3.5.0-18-generic
[22:11] <MonkeyDust> here
[22:12] <usr13> angs: You should skip the encryption part.
[22:12] <auronandace> !mainline | BoomerBile
[22:12] <AceBlade258> in synaptic the highest available is 3.0.0-27
[22:12] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, you can install the new kernel using a package manager, or the command line, these two people just gave you the newest version numbers
[22:12] <BoomerBile> sudo apt-get install on the command line, probably want to sudo apt-get update first
[22:13] <AceBlade258> no risk installin the newest kernel?
[22:13] <BoomerBile> you may just want to install the dist upgrade twice
[22:13] <OerHeks> AceBlade258, you are on 12.04 ?
[22:13] <AceBlade258> sorry, installing
[22:13] <BoomerBile> no
[22:13] <BoomerBile> he's on 10.04
[22:13] <angs> usr13: but I need to use wpa, isn't it possible to use it with encryption?
[22:14] <BoomerBile> he might not want to install the whole update over his tether though it might get expensive
[22:14] <auronandace> AceBlade258: replacing the 10.04 kernel will likely require a ppa (then you won't be supported)
[22:14] <edoedo> hello, where can I find information about C++?
[22:14] <BoomerBile> #c++
[22:14] <AceBlade258> alright, here goes nothing
[22:14] <edoedo> I mean get free online C++
[22:15] <tpidffmtts> is there aany way to mount a 'dumb-phone' on ubuntu?
[22:15] <AceBlade258> BoomerBile: I have unlimited ;)
[22:15] <BoomerBile> AceBlade258, nice!
[22:15] <Wulframn> Hey guys! I have a new 64 bit computer that I'm looking at putting Ubuntu on. This is my first 64 bit computer. I know the 32 bit version of Ubuntu is recommended, so I am curious: is there any advantage to installing 64 bit on this box? Would I do better to keep with 32 bit or 64?
[22:16] <stephan_arch> I edited plymouth with playmouth manager, now I just get a black screen if I start
[22:16] <OerHeks> edoedo, try join ##c++ or ##c++general
[22:16] <tpidffmtts> Wulframn: go 64bit
[22:16] <AceBlade258> Wulframn: supports more than 4GB
[22:16] <stephan_arch> even  sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth && sudo update-initramfs -u doenst work
[22:16] <k1l> Wulframn: 32bit is recommended because not every computer can take 64bit. thats it
[22:16] <BoomerBile> Wulframn, there are arguements in all directions there... most people these days will say 64 bit.
[22:16] <k1l> Wulframn: go for 64bit if your hardware can
[22:16] <edoedo> Thanks
[22:17] <Wulframn> I know it is kind of a hot topic and I'm sorry for asking an obvious question. I used run Ubuntu exclusively, but I've been so involved with school and needing a Windows box that I've forgotten a good bit of all this stuff. =P Thanks for all the help!
[22:17] <AceBlade258> does ubuntu 64-bit have x86 libraies?
[22:17] <AceBlade258> Wulframn: keep in mind the smaller application pool 64-bit still has
[22:18] <AceBlade258> ah-ha! be back in a min
[22:18] <CorvusCorax> Hi, how do I change the power usage profile of the system in ubuntu ?
[22:18] <brainard52> usr13: Thanks for the tip. It's working now. I feel a bit like an idiot, but I haven't had problems in so long, I forgot how to fix things :/
[22:19] <Wulframn> I know 64-bit has a smaller application pool; is that really going to be a problem? I intend to do a side-by-side installation as I am still required to have Windows for school. I plan to use Ubuntu for writing papers, web browsing, basic functions.... and then Windows for my school work and Steam gaming. Will I have an issue with 64 bit having a small app pool?
[22:19] <AceBlade258> YEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!!
[22:19] <usr13> brainard52: NP
[22:19] <k1l> Wulframn: that is no problem
[22:20] <AceBlade258> Wulframn: in that case, no
[22:20] <k1l> Wulframn: the only reason to take 32bit is that your hardware cant take 64bit.
[22:20] <AceBlade258> Thank you BoomerBile
[22:20] <AceBlade258> also, that was a ssd-worthy restart
[22:20] <Wulframn> Ok, cool! Thanks a lot you guys. Starting a download now (going LTS), so I'm off. Thanks all around, again!
[22:20] <BoomerBile> get it working?
[22:20] <usr13> angs: I meant that you should skip the encryption part until you get the connection esbablished.  In other words, turn off encryption, get the connection up and working, then you can turn it back on.  (I'm thinkinking it will simplify things for you.)
[22:21] <BoomerBile> your welcome AceBlade258
[22:21] <chris______> Can someone help me please. I unstalled Ubuntu full wiping out my windows. I need to partition so i can put windows back on. Linux mess up my system a bit because the oem win cd wont insall because linux changed the format of my sys

[22:23] <BoomerBile> you might need /join ##c++ if your irc client doesn't know what /j is
[22:24] <OerHeks> chris______, install windows first, it probably will take full hdd ( oem) then ubuntu
[22:24] <edoedo> it said overflow
[22:24] <BoomerBile> yeah it does that to me all the time
[22:24] <k1l> chris______: some oem recovery cds need a hidden partition where they load preformated stuff out of. if that is wiped ask the support from that manufacturer
[22:24] <BoomerBile> too many people trying to join at once
[22:24] <edoedo> Oh boy
[22:24] <edoedo> I try
[22:24] <trueneu_> Yeah, join ##c++ to teach your IRC client how to /j .

[22:35] <hakunin> i had 4 ec2 instances with ubuntu 12.04 ami working perfectly, and then 5th one working just as well. Then I bootstrapped one more the same way, and now I can't get it to accept my ssh agent forwarding - it keeps looking for private keys, and never gets offered my local dsa key... Every other instance works. I'm at a loss for the whole day now, trying to figure this out.
[22:35] <tim_> hello
[22:35] <hakunin> Any help would be much appreciated.
[22:38] <hakunin> I diff'ed their /etc/ssh/sshd_config's, restarted ssh, tripple-checked all i could think of - the instances just seem identical, but 5 work with agent forwarding and 6th one does not. :(
[22:38] <AceBlade258> Solved, just took out the graphics card
[22:39] <AceBlade258> sort-of an extreme solution, but whatever
[22:39] <TaJMoX> Does anyone know a good calendar program that will sync with my Google account?
[22:39] <AceBlade258> TajMoX: won't thunderbird?
[22:40] <AceBlade258> anybody know the package name for chrome?
[22:40] <omarayad1> not thunderbird it is sunbird
[22:42] <Niggle> hello, I am having problems with my frshly installed 64bit ubuntu 12.10. I am trying to install the properietary nvidia driver but now my resolutions is really low and it doesn't seem to use the driver (nvidia's settings programs says so). I have ran nvidia-xconfig
[22:42] <Niggle> also, I installed it from software sources
[22:42] <Niggle> I am out of ideas
[22:43] <Niggle> lsmod | grep nivida return nvidia
[22:44] <AceBlade258> alright, I'll be honest. I think windows is better looking, which is why i usually switch back after about a week
[22:44] <AceBlade258> how do i make ubuntu pretty
[22:47] <JamesNZ> Is there something like an apt-get search command to search the repos? Or do I have to use the software center?
[22:47] <CorvusCorax> apt-cache search
[22:48] <AceBlade258> Synaptic
[22:48] <JamesNZ> CorvusCorax: Thanks :)
[22:48] <CorvusCorax> going to sleep :)
[22:49] <Niggle> I guess this isn't the distribution for me then

[23:12] <AceBlade258> it's a GNex
[23:12] <AceBlade258> Toro (Verizion)
[23:12] <AceBlade258> Verizon
[23:12] <\42\drinking\r\u> well, GNex is actually a google nexus
[23:12] <\42\drinking\r\u> not the galaxy nexus
[23:13] <\42\drinking\r\u> that's a nexus prime sir
[23:13] <\42\drinking\r\u> and obviously the lg is a google phone.
[23:13] <\42\drinking\r\u> :P
[23:13] <fellayaboy> here it is http://pastebin.com/y7gMuYiE
[23:13] <\42\drinking\r\u> @ fellayaboy lloookin
[23:13] <AceBlade258> \42\drinking\r\u: Google GNex, all you will get is about the Galaxy Nexus
[23:14] <AceBlade258> :P
[23:14] <AceBlade258> anyway, back to MTP
[23:15] <\42\drinking\r\u> oh yey, thanks fellayaboy
[23:15] <AceBlade258> I know linux has a (ironically) better implimentation of it
[23:15] <\42\drinking\r\u> you need to back up sda immediately.
[23:15] <\42\drinking\r\u> looks like its dying
[23:15] <\42\drinking\r\u> AceBlade258 really? win's version sux
[23:15] <fellayaboy> wow physicall hardware failure?
[23:15] <AceBlade258> MTP is microsoft's protocol, and it's slow at cold sap
[23:16] <fellayaboy> thats what i saw too ...mtp microsoft
[23:16] <AceBlade258> fellayaboy: how old is the drive?
[23:16] <viddy> just use adb \o/
[23:16] <fellayaboy> maybe 2 years old or 3 years
[23:16] <\42\drinking\r\u> fellayaboy: install smartmontools
[23:16] <\42\drinking\r\u> then run a scan of that disk
[23:16] <fellayaboy> ok
[23:16] <AceBlade258> viddy: ha! thanks, hadn't thought of that
[23:16] <\42\drinking\r\u> and in your mobo bios i owuld enable the smart there too
[23:16] <\42\drinking\r\u> sorry for the bad news
[23:16] <AceBlade258> fellayaboy: MFGR?
[23:16] <\42\drinking\r\u> but the really good news is that you found out before its totally gone
[23:17] <viddy> AceBlade258: for transferring stuff, its faster on all accounts, adb pull/push, i never looked back at MTP even once
[23:17] <fellayaboy> well what i did was shrink my harddrive using gparted and insalled windows 8...grub wouldnt recognize it and then i used gparted to increase the size again to ext4
[23:17] <fellayaboy> i deleted windows 8 and increased my ext4 size
[23:18] <fellayaboy> thats when it started getting dumb on me ...i didnt want to reinstall uubntu to fix this problem so i came here..im guessing its just the fact i did all that partitioning
[23:18] <sysadmin_> anyone have managed to write data to BluRays succesfully with k3b ?
[23:20] <fellayaboy> apt-get told me theres no such package
[23:20] <fellayaboy> suggested packages are  gsmartcontrol smart-notifier
[23:21] <AceBlade258> how do i add adb to my sources?
[23:21] <AceBlade258> I spent too much time learning windows
[23:21] <brainard52_> I'm still having problems with my audio. I've gotten the login-screen sound to go off, but nothing else is working,.
[23:22] <AceBlade258> as versed as i am in win, i have trouble switching to linux
[23:22] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol
[23:22] <\42\drinking\r\u> what's the issue AceBlade258
[23:22] <\42\drinking\r\u> oh
[23:23] <\42\drinking\r\u> adb sources?
[23:23] <fellayaboy> its not that hard to learn once u get some tutorials
[23:23] <\42\drinking\r\u> computer -> properties -> env variables
[23:23] <\42\drinking\r\u> $PATH
[23:23] <\42\drinking\r\u> its the same in most os's
[23:23] <\42\drinking\r\u> just got to know where the env variables are
[23:23] <fellayaboy> its waaaaaay better than windows and worth the switch u just have to find a good solid tutorial series or book that will chop down the basics
[23:25] <Catbuntu> Hi
[23:25] <\42\drinking\r\u> brainard52_ i didnt forget you
[23:25] <\42\drinking\r\u> details please?
[23:26] <\42\drinking\r\u> hai Catbuntu
[23:26] <\42\drinking\r\u> !hi
[23:26] <brainard52_> OS: Ubuntu 12.04. udio was working last night.
[23:26] <brainard52_> OS: Ubuntu 12.04. Audio was working last night.
[23:26] <\42\drinking\r\u> brainard52_ understood
[23:26] <brainard52_> Crap. I'm used to skype's edit function.
[23:27] <\42\drinking\r\u> first, please check the cables
[23:27] <\42\drinking\r\u> unplug and plug them all in securely.
[23:27] <\42\drinking\r\u> !audio
[23:27] <brainard52_> Thanks. I've already tried messing with ALSAMixer a bit, by the way.
[23:27] <AceBlade2581> protip: dunt unplug your computer with your foot while it's on
[23:27] <\42\drinking\r\u> k
[23:28] <AceBlade2581> *don't
[23:28] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol AceBlade2581, i do that too much :P
[23:28] <\42\drinking\r\u> cable management ftw
[23:28] <AceBlade2581> Ah, so thats the trick
[23:28] <usr13> brainard52_: Did you find out anything from alsamixer?
[23:28] <\42\drinking\r\u> anyway brainard52_ in alsamixer, those M's? highlighted M means on
[23:28] <brainard52_> One sec, I've got a screenie for you.
[23:29] <\42\drinking\r\u> ok
[23:29] <brainard52_> http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6512/alsap.png
[23:29] <brainard52_> Here's what I have.
[23:29] <usr13> brainard52_: play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[23:29] <\42\drinking\r\u> ah you have the OO instead of M
[23:29] <usr13> brainard52_: or aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*
[23:29] <usr13> brainard52_: Test and see what happens.  Tell us if you see errors.
[23:29] <\42\drinking\r\u> (what usr13 said)
[23:30] <\42\drinking\r\u> also brainard52_, not that you may care, but your name is showing in the pic
[23:31] <usr13> brainard52_: and/or, tell us if you hear sounds.
[23:31] <AceBlade2581> erm, sorry to be a broken record, but how do I add the android platform tools to my sources?
[23:31] <brainard52_> Meh, that's fine. As long as my social is nowhere. I'm sure that if you were malicious, you might be able to do some damage, but I don't really care.
[23:31] <brainard52_> No sounds, by the way :/
[23:31] <\42\drinking\r\u> yeah that's fine
[23:31] <\42\drinking\r\u> do you have beep installed?
[23:31] <\42\drinking\r\u> (can do system bell)
[23:31] <usr13> brainard52_: What do you see in the terminal window?  (Is it playing or giving errors?)
[23:32] <brainard52_> what's the paste command?
[23:32] <usr13> brainard52_: pastebinit?
[23:32] <brainard52_> That's it. Thanks.
[23:33] <\42\drinking\r\u> AceBlade2581 in windows?
[23:33] <\42\drinking\r\u> join me in #flood for a bit please AceBlade2581
[23:33] <AceBlade2581> \42\drinking\r\u:in ubuntu
[23:35] <brainard52_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1380781/ Here's the output of the aplay command.
[23:37] <brainard52_> You're trying to put adb/fastboot into your paths?
[23:37] <AceBlade2581> brainard52_: yeah
[23:37] <usr13> brainard52_: It's playing the files.  Plug in speakers, (or plug into different port).  Plug in power cord to speakers, (or get power supply that works).  Trun volume up, (on speakers etc.).  .....
[23:37] <brainard52_> While in your home folder in Nautilus, press CTRL+H and find /bashrc.
[23:38] <brainard52_> oops, sorry. .bashrc
[23:38] <brainard52_> That's the thing, my onboard speakers aren't working :/
[23:38] <AceBlade2581> opened
[23:38] <brainard52_> study how it's formatted and then put the exact path to your adb/fastboot binaries into the file.
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> brainard52_ yeah
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> gave him that ^^;
[23:39] <brainard52_> Ah, that works.
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> so he can make it system wide if needed, and so he has the full deal on env variables
[23:39] <usr13> brainard52_: FYI:  F5 in alsamixer shows all ports
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> includes the bash
[23:39] <\42\drinking\r\u> the users bash is .bashrc vs /etc/bash.bashrc for default for all users @ brainard52_ / AceBlade2581
[23:40] <usr13> brainard52_: sudo apt-get install sox
[23:41] <usr13> brainard52_: What works?  What did you do?
[23:41] <timbishjr> *Farts
[23:41] <brainard52_> ^Mature -.-
[23:41] <brainard52_> Anyway, what do you mean what works? Also, I was curious what sox was.
[23:41] <\42\drinking\r\u> @usr the link to env variables
[23:42] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol
[23:42] <usr13> brainard52_: ..--..
[23:43] <brainard52_> I said something dumb :/
[23:43] <\42\drinking\r\u> yes
[23:43] <kazagistar> I installed from a netinstall disk over ethernet cable, and now my system will not boot without my ethernet cable plugged in. I also cannot manage the ethernet connection from the nm-applet. help me use my wireless!
[23:43] <\42\drinking\r\u> rule 0: use google
[23:43] <\42\drinking\r\u> search terms "linux sox"
[23:43] <\42\drinking\r\u> first result: Mar 5, 2012 – Welcome to the home of SoX, the Swiss Army knife of sound processing programs.  I don't understand at all...
[23:44] <brainard52_> I was only stating that I was curious because I saw it in Alsamixer. I wasn't actually asking what it was.
[23:45] <\42\drinking\r\u> kazagistar i read your issue
[23:45] <\42\drinking\r\u> what do you mean doesn't boot?
[23:45] <usr13> kazagistar: Maybe you should explain your situation in more detail.  (I was under the impression that your system will not boot without ethernet cable plugged in.)
[23:45] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: it does, but it waits for like 5 min for a network connection, and then has no networking
[23:45] <\42\drinking\r\u> ahaha
[23:45] <kazagistar> so, sorry, I failed my explination
[23:46] <\42\drinking\r\u> so ipv4 fails, then ipv6, then wifi
[23:46] <\42\drinking\r\u> or something
[23:46] <usr13> brainard52_: Is you sound working now?
[23:46] <blackshirt> 5 min ??? Its too long ....so scaried
[23:46] <\42\drinking\r\u> !wifi
[23:46] <kazagistar> I think it is using eth0 as some kind of hardcoded route, and demanding that it load before loading the networking system
[23:47] <brainard52_> Anyway, usr13,  I seriously haven't messed with configs on my computer since I first installed 12.04. I'll reboot to see if installing beep and sox did anything.
[23:47] <billkd> The Purple 8 Ball says:  It's possible
[23:47] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol billkd
[23:47] <kazagistar> due to the fact that I installed it using the text installer, and just had it detect the route... I really dont know
[23:47] <MrTorque> hey. how do I set a nameserver (in /etc/resolv.conf) at first position?
[23:47] <aliencrew> j hacker.it
[23:47] <\42\drinking\r\u> MrTorque you must do through netowrk manager not the file
[23:48] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol aliencrew
[23:48] <aliencrew> :D
[23:48] <aliencrew> lol
[23:48] <aliencrew> hi
[23:48] <\42\drinking\r\u> hai
[23:48] <billkd> Um, just add to the top of /etc/resolv.conf in the syntax described in the file... I think anyway.
[23:48] <MrTorque> i want to add a local ip as ns but it is sorted at the end and hence not considered in name resolving
[23:48] <AceBlade2581> i cant figure it out.
[23:48] <\42\drinking\r\u> billkd yes, but it will be overwritten by the network manager
[23:48] <MrTorque> \42\drinking\r\u: how do i do in console?
[23:48] <AceBlade2581> i think im too tired, but i really want to get this build started.
[23:48] <\42\drinking\r\u> it can also go into the /etc/network/interfaces file, but that will also be overwritten in desktop enviornment
[23:48] <kazagistar> as long as I DO have an ethernet cable plugged in, my wireless works fine, everything works fine, but otherwise, it fails to load any networking at all... it is so stupid
[23:48] <\42\drinking\r\u> kazagistar
[23:48] <billkd> perhaps he's using CLI only.
[23:49] <\42\drinking\r\u> then plugin ethernet, then boot, then disable ethernet
[23:49] <\42\drinking\r\u> reboot and report back
[23:49] <usr13> kazagistar: Does it hang during boot?
[23:49] <\42\drinking\r\u> literally disable the interface
[23:49] <billkd> in that case, it's just vim /etc/resolv.conf or nano /etc/resolv.conf or whatever, then edit and :wq or ^x y <return>
[23:49] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: how exactly do i disable it?
[23:49] <\42\drinking\r\u> billkd it will be overwritten unless its server
[23:50] <\42\drinking\r\u> kaz i dont run the same gui as you, no clue
[23:50] <\42\drinking\r\u> i would start by getting rid of gnome's ugly unity face
[23:50] <brainard52> Reboot didn't do anything. It's realy weird to me, though. The sound that is set to play when the login screen shows plays.
[23:50] <\42\drinking\r\u> go to xfce or something :P
[23:50] <adknight87> Dr_willis: I'm getting a error trying to add a quicklist in myunity [45] File or directory does not exist. MQuicklist.?.0
[23:50] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: network manager does not display the connection at all, that is my problem
[23:50] <\42\drinking\r\u> brainard52 in terminal will beep beep?
[23:51] <\42\drinking\r\u> thats bad...
[23:51] <brainard52> nope.
[23:51] <\42\drinking\r\u> brainard52 did the sound work before?
[23:51] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: but ifconfig shows it fine
[23:51] <\42\drinking\r\u> kazagistar, add another user to the box
[23:51] <\42\drinking\r\u> give that user all powers
[23:51] <\42\drinking\r\u> see if its also unable to see it
[23:51] <billkd> The Purple Fullcrap Ball says:  dont sent any message any more stupit n idiot
[23:53] <Guest70745> huh?
[23:53] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: um, the box is this one, but I am pretty sure it wont work, because I think my problem is this: http://pastebin.com/h7vCtJSB
[23:53] <\42\drinking\r\u> what's wrong with that?
[23:53] <kazagistar> that it has eth0 coded into it? dunno
[23:53] <Guest70745> If you're in trouble he will save the day
[23:53] <Guest70745> He's brave and he's fearless come what may
[23:54] <Guest70745> Without him the mission would go astray
[23:54] <\42\drinking\r\u> shush Guest70745

[23:54] <Guest70745> He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
[23:54] <Guest70745> Without him life would be much grimmer
[23:54] <Guest70745> He's handsome, trim and no-one slimmer
[23:54] <gordonjcp> !ops Guest70745
[23:54] <Guest70745> He will never need a Zimmer
[23:54] <\42\drinking\r\u> yes we love red dwarf too, but your spamming sir

[23:54] <Guest70745> Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

[23:54] <Guest70745> He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner
[23:54] <bkerensa> Guest70745: Please stop

[23:55] <brainard52> lul.
[23:55] <bkerensa> !guidelines > Guest70745
[23:55] <kazagistar> \42\drinking\r\u: I am currently connected over wireless, network manager does not use the interfaces file I think...
[23:55] <brainard52> Anyway, "beep" does not beep.
[23:55] <\42\drinking\r\u> did sound work before brainard52?
[23:55] <usr13> brainard52: play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav 2>&1 |pastebinit
[23:55] <brainard52> Yup. Last night I was watching Anime.
[23:56] <\42\drinking\r\u> did you change the bios since then?
[23:56] <\42\drinking\r\u> perhaps the default codec?
[23:56] <dark59linter> might be the codecs
[23:56] <brainard52> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1380805/
[23:56] <\42\drinking\r\u> if you went in the bios i found something before, where it hates some codecs but not others
[23:56] <\42\drinking\r\u> it should show in dmesg but i forget the exact error
[23:57] <\42\drinking\r\u> if every other setting is the same, device chosen, etc, cables not moved, then that seems likely. like i said, i've fallen prey to this one as well.
[23:57] <brainard52> Last night, I used a command to look at my BIOS' information. I doubt that would change anything.
[23:57] <usr13> brainard52_: AGAIN:  It's playing the files.  Plug in speakers, (or plug into different port).  Plug in power cord to speakers, (or get power supply that works).  Trun volume up, (on speakers etc.). Find some speakers that really work. .....
[23:58] <brainard52> I've already said that my speakers really do work. It plays a sound when I get to the login screen.
[23:58] <\42\drinking\r\u> usr13 its the onboards having issues
[23:58] <\42\drinking\r\u> no ports to plug if i understand it
[23:58] <brainard52> The login sound plays through my headphones and my speakers.
[23:59] <dark59linter> brainard52 what are you using ? Alsa Or Pulseaudio?
[23:59] <brainard52> Whatever is default for Ubuntu 12.04
[23:59] <dark59linter> i think i know what this might be
[23:59] <usr13> brainard52: so when you play  /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*  you can hear all the audio files playing through the speakers?  I thought you were having an audion problem.  I guess I have no idea what we were working on here.
[23:59] <usr13> *audio*  not audion
[23:59] <\42\drinking\r\u> lol
