[14:59] <swaagie> BluesKaj: nah your right sorry, but this is getting a bit frustrating atm
[14:59] <ASRU> http://gnome-look.org
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> xen_: i dont know how much it applies now, personally (considering how trivial it is). I'd leave it as. It doesnt hurt anything
[15:00] <geneller2> Hi everyone, can anybody help me? yesterday I was trying to setup compiz but something went wrong and now I can't login to my account
[15:01] <xen_> ActionParsnip: It does not work as my screen's resolution is 1366*768
[15:01] <ASRU> geneller2: Did you reboot like that???
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> xen_: maybe not under the fb driver
[15:01] <geneller2> yes, I've tried several things
[15:01] <k1l> geneller2: does another user work?
[15:01] <xen_> i think i should remove it >_<
[15:02] <xen_> and make my boot more informational
[15:02] <geneller2> k11: yes, I created a new user from console and it works
[15:02] <swaagie> what is even more confusing is that I can put in a completely malformed xorg.conf (configuration fails due to too many screens vs found devices) and it will show up nicely... be it with vesa drivers probably as it is slow, still need nomodeset though
[15:02] <ASRU> geneller2: can you log into it???
[15:03] <geneller2> ASRU: the new user? yes
[15:04] <k1l> geneller2: log into that other user and delete the latest .xml files in /home/old-user/.compiz/session/
[15:04] <geneller2> When input my password for the old account, it seems like working, the screens goes black and get back to the login form
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: if you press CTRL+ALT+F1 and log in there, are you the owner of all of your home folder
[15:05] <ASRU> go into terminal
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: you can also reset compiz settings from there too
[15:05] <ASRU> BRB
[15:06] <geneller2> ActionParsnip: yes, when I press CTRL + ALT + F1, I own the home folder
[15:06] <geneller2> K11: let me try
[15:07] <jgornick> Hey guys, is there an alternative to something like https://github.com/turnkeylinux/confconsole
[15:10] <geneller2> k1l: I can't find that folder, /home/old-user/.compiz
[15:11] <k1l> geneller2: as old-user you need to put you old-users nick in there
[15:12] <k1l> and you need the root rights. i guess you better log into a tty (with ctrl+alt+f1) and login as the old user and remove that new files from there. back to gui brings you crtl+alt+f7
[15:17] <geneller2> hahaha, no no I get it, I was searching for /home/geneller/.compiz
[15:18] <swaagie> geneller2: do you own Xauthority and ICEauthority?
[15:18] <swaagie> both prepended with . should be in your home folder
[15:18] <xen_> e
[15:19] <jtrucks> so, no talkfilters in modern distros?
[15:19]  * jtrucks pouts
[15:20] <geneller2> swaagie: this is the output for ll:
[15:20] <geneller2> -rw-------  1 root     root            56 Sep 18 22:59 .Xauthority

[15:22] <StarFlower> rhythmbox wont let me add music
[15:22] <k-joseph> ikonia: hi, greetings :)
[15:22] <geneller2> k1l: I logged into the old-user (using CTRL + ALT + F1) but I still can't find the folder /home/geneller/.compiz
[15:24] <Luyin> swaagie: It should be geneller:geneller, shoudn't it?
[15:24] <geneller2> swaagie: I don't think it worked, I still getting this
[15:24] <geneller2> -rw-------  1 root     root            56 Sep 18 22:59 .Xauthority
[15:24] <swaagie> hmm nah then the command didn't work
[15:24] <swaagie> Luyin: either is fine
[15:24] <swaagie> afaik
[15:24] <Luyin> ah ok
[15:25] <Luyin> geneller2: you could try my suggestion
[15:25] <swaagie> geneller2: that file shouldn't belong to root though
[15:25] <geneller2> Luyin: I ran both but neither worked
[15:25] <Luyin> ok
[15:25] <swaagie> any other errors that popped up with the `chownz
[15:25] <swaagie> chown
[15:25] <geneller2> no, no errors
[15:26] <swaagie> geneller2: hmm you could try with geneller:geneller like Luyin suggested
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: do you run commands like 'sudo gedit' and 'sudo nautilus'
[15:27] <geneller2> swaagie: I used cd to locate myself into the /home/geneller folder, ran the command again and it worked
[15:27] <pip__> If I install from 12.04 non-pae mini iso & then add a window manager & stuff do I get 5 years support?
[15:27] <Rory> pip__: Yes
[15:28] <pip__> most excellent, thanks for the clarification :)
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: do you run commands like 'sudo gedit' and 'sudo nautilus'?
[15:29] <yeehi> Is there a better alternative to TightVNC?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> yeehi: most things, yes
[15:29] <darkmatter178> hello you fucking niggers, how's it nigging today you fucking cunts :) <3 (I love you, cocks)
[15:29] <swaagie> geneller2: eh hehe, thought that would speak for itself, sorry :)
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> yeehi: why are you connecting to the remote system, what do you do once you connect to the desktop session?
[15:30] <geneller2> ActionParsnip: yes I can run those commands, why?
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: no the question is "do you" not "can you"
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: in the past, have you used those commands on this install as your user?
[15:30] <miketeevee> can someone please help me with a fork() issue?   in 10.04 LTS, a fork() does not copy all of the ram, but in 12.04.3 LTS it does copy all of the ram.  how can i get back to 10.04 LTS behavior?  i'm not doing any writes to the forked memory, so COW shouldn't apply
[15:30] <geneller2> ActionParsnip: no, I haven't need to
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: interesting, as those comamnds would do that
[15:32] <geneller2> swaagie: hahaha, don't worry, but I still can't log in
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> geneller2: install xfce4 in the console and then log in to the XFCE session, is it ok?
[15:33] <yeehi> ActionParsnip, for example, launch a MS Office application...
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> yeehi: what OS is the server you are connecting to?
[15:34] <geneller2> downloading..
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> yeehi: is it a windows box?
[15:35] <yeehi> I would like to be able to connect to a variety of boxes, Ubuntu, Windows...
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> yeehi: is the system you are running the MS Office app on a windows box?

[15:36] <miketeevee> is there an ubuntu server help channel?
[15:36] <Rory> miketeevee: #ubuntu-server
[15:36] <reisio> yeehi: tigervnc :)
[15:39] <geneller2> well, now I can log into the old-user account, but I don't see anything but the desktop
[15:39] <geneller2> no menu, no dash home button
[15:40] <k-joseph> ActionParsnip: hi, greetings :)
[15:40] <jgornick> Hey guys, is there something out there that presents a user with a configuration screen or a status screen after an Ubuntu virtual appliance is booted? In my VM window, I would like to see a summary of system information, primarily network information.
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> k-joseph: howdy
[15:40] <Rory> geneller2: gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz-1 && unity --reset
[15:40] <Rory> geneller2: That will remove your Unity and Compiz settings to default
[15:41] <D`Fam> speak indonesian Rory :-)
[15:41] <k-joseph> good
[15:42] <Rory> Sorry D`Fam ?
[15:42] <D`Fam> okay
[15:43] <Rory> D`Fam: Are you trying to get a scanner working?
[15:43] <geneller2> Rory: failed to connect to D-BUS deamon
[15:44] <Rory> geneller2: What ubuntu version are you using?
[15:44] <geneller2> 12.04
[15:45] <Rory> geneller2: Try then jsut: unity --reset
[15:45] <geneller2> Rory: the same error
[15:47] <Rory> geneller2: I think you still need to fix permissions in your home directory. Try the command: "sudo chown -R username:username /home/username/.*"
[15:49] <geneller2> I got it
[15:49] <geneller2> let me reboot my pc for a minute, I'll be back
[15:50] <ASRU> back
[15:50] <ASRU> ok i need some help

[15:52] <kalekip1> !details | ASRU
[15:52] <ASRU> Tor is not working right with proxychains
[15:52] <ASRU> when I run the tor command
[15:52] <MonkeyDust> tor is overrated
[15:52] <D`Fam> !ping me
[15:52] <ASRU> I use it to route. not hax
[15:53] <jhutchins>  Didn't we just hear that the NSA actually seeds malware and back-doored TOR servers?
[15:53] <ASRU> Im trying to setup a tor server
[15:53] <ASRU> I got my configs setup
[15:53] <jibreel> guys there is an issue in ubuntu 13.04 that is driving me nuts
[15:54] <jhutchins> jgornick: Pretty easy to script something like that.
[15:54] <zenpac> how can I install ubuntu on a headless system, is there some sort of vnc installer?
[15:54] <jgornick> jhutchins: Have you seen anything like https://github.com/turnkeylinux/confconsole or would know how to install something like that on 12.04?
[15:54] <ASRU> tor says 9050 is open, and it is, put the process isn't running
[15:54] <ASRU> so it closes
[15:54] <ASRU> WTF?
[15:55] <jibreel> when i go fullscreen on an application(f11), i can't use the application switcher(alt-tab) it just doesn't show
[15:55] <geneller2> I'm back, well now I'm from my old user account
[15:55] <ASRU> tor says 9050 is open, and it is, put the process isn't running
[15:55] <Rory> jibreel: What application? Firefox? F11 isn't a generic "fullscreen" command, only in Mozilla applications I think
[15:55] <erle-> if i use dpgk to install a newer version of an installed package, does it automatically update (i.e. deleting the old version and replacing)
[15:55] <ne2k> I've been installing 12.04.3 server on multiple servers using PXE booted netboot image. It's all working great, but for some reason, when they're finished, they come up with 3.2.0-53-generic kernel, rather than the 3.8 one that is installed when installing from the 12.04.3 CD. is this expected?
[15:55] <jhutchins> jibreel: Correct.  That is the expected behavior.
[15:55] <geneller2> but I have nothing to work with, to open firefox I create an script, typed "firefox" into it, gave it run permissions
[15:56] <ASRU> man pages for tor don't talk about that
[15:56] <geneller2> but I can't do anything else
[15:56] <jibreel> jhutchins: realy ? why ? and can i change this ?
[15:56] <Vanfanel> Hello there! Is it possible to have two versions of the same package installed? When I do "apt-cache show libgbm-dev" I see TWO verions of the same package: http://pastebin.com/MPQGBx0A
[15:56] <Vanfanel> Are both versions installed?
[15:56] <Rory> Vanfanel: They'#re not both installed
[15:56] <jibreel> Rory: any application actualy
[15:57] <Rory> Vanfanel: They are both available, and the package is available from two different sources (in this case, the main repo, and X-SWAT PPA)
[15:57] <ASRU> nessus install help
[15:57] <jhutchins> Vanfanel: If you make part of the version number part of the package name (as far as dpkg knows) then yes, and if you install in seperate paths that works.
[15:57] <ne2k> Vanfanel: apt-cache doesn't show you what is installed, it shows you what is available from the package lists you currently have
[15:57] <Vanfanel> Then.. how can I install one of the packages? How can I chose?
[15:58] <tomc603> I'm having a problem with indicator-messages: When I receive a new IM, the indicator icon does not turn blue. I have re-installed empathy, indicator-messages, and several of the lib dependencies I've found...but still nothing.
[15:58] <ne2k> Vanfanel: apt-get install <package-name>
[15:58] <jhutchins> jibreel: If you maximise the window, you can still switch, but fullscreen takes over the display and display manager.
[15:58] <tomc603> I've also confirmed "empathy.desktop" is in my dconf settings for the indicator/messages config.
[15:58] <Vanfanel> aha, by the exact name.. right! thanks!
[15:58] <tomc603> Any ideas where to look next?
[15:58] <ne2k> Vanfanel: well, not the version number, just the name
[15:58] <jibreel> jhutchins: ah i see, so there is no way around this ?
[15:59] <ne2k> Vanfanel: in this case, sudo apt-get install libgbm-dev
[15:59] <jibreel> jhattara: well this is kind of stupid
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> tomc603: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[16:00] <ne2k> Vanfanel: as far as I know, apt will automatically pick the one with the highest version number. I might be wrong about this -- perhaps someone else can chime in. If you want to deliberately install an old version, then you will need to get into hackery
[16:00] <Rory> Not too much hackery, you can do it with synaptic
[16:00] <tomc603> ActionParsnip, I'm using 13.10
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> tomc603: then it isnt supported here
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> tomc603: your support is in #ubuntu+1
[16:00] <tomc603> But I do not believe this is an issue related to 13.10, which is why I ask here
[16:00] <Rory> tomc603: Does the issue occur in 13.04?
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> tomc603: it is still in 13.10 which isnt supported here til release day
[16:01] <Vanfanel> ne2k: how can I know wich exact one do I have installed then?
[16:01] <ne2k> Vanfanel: dpkg -l |grep libgbm-dev
[16:02] <tomc603> This is clearly an issue that impacts more than one version, as the number of un-answered questions on http://askubuntu.com/search?q=indicator-messages indicate
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> tomc603: its not supported here til release day. You are using Ubuntu 12.10 and 12.10 is not supported here until October
[16:03] <ne2k> someone's in a time warp
[16:03] <Rory> 13.10*
[16:04] <ne2k> if I install 12.04.3 server from CD, I get a 3.8 kernel. if I install it from netboot, I get a 3.2 kernel. any ideas why? is this normal? is there any point in upgrading, and if so, how does one do it?
[16:04] <ikonia_> ne2k: net boot ?
[16:04] <ikonia_> ne2k: netboot to what ? what repo ? what media ?
[16:05] <ne2k> ikonia_: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/
[16:05] <tomc603> ne2k, I believe the netboot image hasn't been updated with the backported kernels, etc.
[16:05] <ikonia_> ne2k: what are you netbooting against though ?
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/linux-image-3.8.0-27-generic
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> weird
[16:06] <ikonia_> ne2k: and the short answer is the available updates will be offered to you in the package manager,
[16:06] <g0d> is Ubuntu 13.04 just as customizable as Arch?
[16:06] <ne2k> ikonia_: what do you mean? I downloaded netboot.tar.gz from that directory, unzip it into a tftp server and boot it with PXE
[16:06] <eden_> ctrl +a does not work in ubuntu 12.04 64 bit,it does not mark the text and it goes the cursor to the beginning of it.
[16:07] <ne2k> eden_: that's what Ctrl-A is supposed to do on Linux
[16:07] <tomc603> ne2k, Once the OS is installed, do a "dist-upgrade" and you will get the back-ported packages
[16:07] <Psil0Cybin> Hey guys
[16:07] <tomc603> Including the new kernel
[16:08] <Psil0Cybin> im trying to encrypt my home directory after already installing linux
[16:08] <Psil0Cybin> how can i go about doing this a fast quick way? perhaps
[16:08] <Psil0Cybin> im trying
[16:08] <eden_> ne2k, no i am sure that i could mark all the text with ctrl+a
[16:08] <Psil0Cybin> sudo /usr/bin/ecryptfs-migrate-home -u psil0cybin
[16:08] <Psil0Cybin> but it keeps saying permission denied
[16:09] <eden_> ne2k, i am also using debian and ctrl+a marks all the text
[16:09] <ne2k> tomc603: it doesn't. I did sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; and it says 0 packages to upgrade
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> Psil0Cybin: is that your user which you are logged in as now?
[16:09] <Psil0Cybin> yes is that the problem
[16:09] <Psil0Cybin> i need to enable my root account and do it as root?
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> Psil0Cybin: sounds likely
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> Psil0Cybin: no
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> Psil0Cybin: reboot and hold SHIFT at boot
[16:09] <Psil0Cybin> okay
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> sparty: boot to root recovery mode and do it there
[16:09] <Psil0Cybin> writting this down :)
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> Psil0Cybin: ^
[16:10] <geneller2> thank you all, it seems like it's working now, I mean at least I can log in now and I'm running the unity --reset command to get it back finally, thank you so much :D
[16:10] <Psil0Cybin> so i just hold shift, and login as my username that i want to encrypt then
[16:10] <Psil0Cybin> run command?
[16:10] <prosys> Hello, how can I start an interactive shell script (using stdin) before starting X? Something like, during the boot process, pause the boot process to run the script (and receive user input) and then resume the boot process...
[16:10] <ActionParsnip> sparty: ahhh ah you the crazy guy with the YouTbe channel. Cup of Linux?
[16:10] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: One of the options will be "drop to a root shell prompt"
[16:10] <Psil0Cybin> okay perfect :0
[16:10] <scavmartin> OK I have an issue with ubuntu and using rpmbuild (yes I know rpm on ubuntu) and it does not like the "noarch" architecture and I get "error: No compatible architectures found for build". Does anyone know how to force the build or get ubuntu's rpmbuild to recognize the no arch architecture so the package can build?
[16:10] <reisio> prosys: what for
[16:11] <Jose3> hi, I'm new here, but I was told this is where I could find help for Ubuntu?
[16:11] <reisio> Jose3: I believe you
[16:11] <Rory> scavmartin: Can you put the full command you run, and any and all output, on http://paste.ubuntu.com
[16:11] <Psil0Cybin> Rory or ActionParsnip once I encrypt my home directory, what is the best way to double check that it is encrypted (pop in a livecd and try to access my drive)?
[16:12] <scavmartin> I use a spec file. root@utl-tca09:/usr/local/TeamCity/rpm/SPECS# rpmbuild -ba silvercore_bizinfo.spec
[16:12] <scavmartin> error: No compatible architectures found for build
[16:12] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: Pretend you are an adversary and attempt to access your data
[16:12] <Psil0Cybin> Thanks guys
[16:12] <Psil0Cybin> im going to do this now.
[16:12] <scavmartin> no need for paste bin as it was only two lines :)
[16:13] <Jose3> So, I'm trying to run a command but its not working. It'll tell me "permission denied" and when I try to sudo it, it ells me "command not found"
[16:13] <eden_> Where i can ask information about websites?
[16:13] <Rory> scavmartin: try using the --target=noarch argument to rpmbuild
[16:13] <scavmartin> Jose3: please run "which COMMAND" and "sudo which COMMAND" and provide output
[16:13] <Rory> What do you mean eden_ ? Do you have an Ubuntu support question? If so just ask it :)
[16:13] <Jose3> alright
[16:13] <prosys> reisio: i need to ask the user for some info before starting lightdm and some software that needs that info to work
[16:14] <eden_> Rory, i want to download a website page exactly as it is
[16:14] <Jose3> scavmartin: In both cases I received no output
[16:14] <scavmartin> Jose3: what is the command, and it works without sudo?
[16:15] <Rory> eden_: try "wget -p -k http://example.com"
[16:15] <scavmartin> Jose3: What is the exact error you get when you run it without sudo and you get permission denied?
[16:15] <Jose3> the command is the binary for a program I downloaded (used to tag texts for their synctactic values)
[16:16] <Jose3> I cannot get it to work with or without sudo
[16:16] <Rory> Jose3: you need to use ./commandname not just commandname
[16:16] <Rory> !path | Jose3 or add it to your path
[16:16] <eden_> @Rory tried
[16:16] <Jose3> I have tried./
[16:16] <prosys> i tryed to use an upstart job, but i cant get stdin with it
[16:16] <prosys> *tried
[16:16] <Rory> eden_: Did it work?
[16:16] <scavmartin> Jose3: sudo chmod a+x COMMAND, then sudo ./COMMAND does that work?
[16:16] <eden_> @Rory no
[16:17] <Rory> !details | eden_
[16:17] <Jose3> When I try to run the command:
[16:17] <Jose3> bash: ./tree-tagger: Permission denied
[16:17] <Rory> Jose3: What is the output of "file tree-tagger"
[16:17] <Rory> Jose3: And what is the output of "uname -p"
[16:17] <jundoe> !seen laptop
[16:18] <eden_> @Rory i don't get the desired structure as i view it when i am browsing
[16:18] <Jose3> scavmartin: no, it did not work
[16:18] <KI7MT> eden_, you may want to add a few things to the wget command:  --recursive  --no-clobber  --page-requisites  --html-extension  --convert-links --no-parent   etc etc
[16:18] <jundoe> !help
[16:18] <Rory> eden_: Oh, that will only download one page. You might find what you need here http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/downloading-entire-web-site-wget

[16:19] <Psil0Cybin> hey guys so i restarted the comptuer and held shift, buti t gave me 4 options Start ubuntu normally, in safe mode, memory test and some other option then press c for console so i pressed c but its the grub console
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> so how do i go about restarting it to get into root terminal
[16:20] <Jose3> Ok, downloading right now
[16:20] <avnish> hello guys
[16:20] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: You want Recovery Mode, that will likely be the second option
[16:20] <Jose3> I'll let you guys know in a sec
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> oh its recovery mode
[16:20] <Jose3> Thanks for the help
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> okay
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> thats it? or something else after that
[16:20] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: Once you're in recovery mode you get a menu. One of the options will be similar to "drop to a root shell prompt"
[16:20] <scavmartin> Rory: thanks the target=noarch switch provided http://paste.ubuntu.com/6128917/ which means noarch does exist, correct? Which then my spec file setup is bad (something I do not control).
[16:20] <avnish>  iwant to learn basic of python
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> okay
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> perfect
[16:20] <Psil0Cybin> ty
[16:21] <Rory> avnish: join #python this is the Ubuntu support channel
[16:22] <Jose3> rory & scavmartin: I have downloaded everything and I am still getting the same issues "Permission denied" and "command not found" (no sudo, sudo respectively)
[16:23] <prosys> how do i run an interactive bash script during boot process, pausing/resuming the boot process?
[16:23] <scavmartin> Jose3: ls COMMAND
[16:23] <Rory> Jose3: You did "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs" ?
[16:23] <scavmartin> Jose3: I mean "ls -lah COMMAND"
[16:23] <Rory> I have to leave for home now, but this is a simple issue and you're in capable hands
[16:24] <Jose3> rory: yes
[16:24] <Jose3> rory: thanks
[16:24] <avnish> is there any room for hackers
[16:24] <KI7MT> prosys, put a hook script in with update-rc.d and / or upstart service job
[16:25] <Jose3> scavmartin:
[16:25] <Jose3> -rw------- 1 jose jose 861K May  7 11:09 ./tree-tagger
[16:25] <scavmartin> Jose3: You never ran "chmod a+x COMMAND" like I said earlier, try that
[16:25] <scavmartin> Jose3: may need to to sudo the chmod
[16:25] <Psil0Cybin> Rory: it says mktemp failed to create file via template /home/psil0cybin.XXXXXX : Read Only File System
[16:25] <Psil0Cybin> does that mean it is already encrypted?
[16:26] <prosys> KI7MT: please explain
[16:26] <KI7MT> prosys, More Info:  http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/  .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpstartHowto
[16:26] <drfaustus> What is it now with me And is it as I have become?
[16:26] <drfaustus> Is there no state free from the boundary lines
[16:26] <Jose3> scavmartin:

[16:26] <prosys> KI7MT: oh, i've tried upstart, but i cant get stdin
[16:26] <avnish> is there any room for hackers
[16:26] <Psil0Cybin> lol
[16:27] <OerHeks> avnish, no.
[16:27] <Psil0Cybin> what kind of "hackers"
[16:27] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[16:27] <scavmartin> Jose3: "sudo chmod a+x tree-tagger" + "ls -lah tree-tagger"
[16:27] <avnish> ethical hacker
[16:27] <Psil0Cybin> look for a pentesting channel.
[16:27] <KI7MT> prosys, that a script issue then, it needs to be written so as to provide an interactive action
[16:27] <Psil0Cybin> maybe there is a #backtrack support channel somewhere.
[16:27] <Psil0Cybin> but i doubt it it would be flooded with kids trying to learn how to use aircrack ;)
[16:28] <NastyNaz> im looking for a folder with 'euphoria' somewhere in the name. how do i search for it from the terminal?
[16:28] <Jose3> still getting the same output
[16:28] <avnish> how can i learn basic of hacking
[16:28] <Psil0Cybin> Im trying to encrypt my home directory, I restarted in recovery went to drop a rootshell and i get this message
[16:28] <Psil0Cybin> /home/psil0cybin.XXXXXX : Read Only File System
[16:28] <Psil0Cybin> what do i do?
[16:28] <DopeSmoke> how would i download files from ubuntu on my local network to a windows machine on the same network
[16:28] <OerHeks> avnish, stop asking, wrong room
[16:29] <Jose3> avnish: try "smash the stack"
[16:29] <avnish> is there any room pls tell me
[16:29] <scavmartin> Jose3: and the chmod does not error? If so it is defining basic reason as it is not adding the executable bit.
[16:29] <Psil0Cybin> avnish: you wont get anywhere, by keeping on asking.
[16:29] <Jose3> scavmartin: it is not giving me any error
[16:29] <KI7MT> prosys, for example: [ exec 3<&0 \ read -u 3 -p "Choose Something : " input exec 3<&- ]
[16:29] <Psil0Cybin> avnish: google is your friend.
[16:30] <avnish> is there any sight from which i can read basic
[16:30] <scavmartin> is "/media" another filesystem? "df -h" will tell me also
[16:30] <Psil0Cybin> anyone know how to encrypt a file system with ecryptfs-migrate-home
[16:30] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[16:30] <prosys> KI7MT: thank you, i'm going to try that
[16:30] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I backup my windows system via network with my ubuntu system? :)
[16:30] <scavmartin> Jose3: is "/media" another filesystem? "df -h" will tell me also
[16:30] <jhutchins> avnish: Start with http://freenode.org, where you can learn more about irc.
[16:30] <mojtaba> I want to make a backup server.
[16:30] <Psil0Cybin> avnish: start with backtrack - learn to hack wifis first.
[16:30] <Psil0Cybin> go from there.
[16:30] <Jose3> h.o, putting output in a pastebin
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> spready your wings young grass hopper.
[16:31] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: Why are you rebooting in recovery mode?
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> trying to recover the home directory i use.
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> i mean
[16:31] <jhutchins> avnish: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/sag/
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> encrypt*
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> using sudo ecryptfs-migrate-home -u psil0cybin
[16:31] <Jose3> scavmartin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6128954/
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> but i cant do that because its the user account i use.
[16:31] <Psil0Cybin> so it says i must be root
[16:32] <Psil0Cybin> but when i enter it as root i get
[16:32] <Psil0Cybin> /home/psil0cybin.XXXXXX : Read Only File System
[16:32] <igor2> hi there
[16:32] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I backup my windows system via network with my ubuntu system? I want to make a backup server.
[16:32] <scavmartin> yes it is "/dev/sdb1       932G  182G  750G  20% /media/Files"; run "cat /etc/mtab |grep sdb1"
[16:32] <KI7MT> prosys, Don't use that example exactly, that is a simple example of a readline.\
[16:32] <igor2> i've a problem with my displaysettings
[16:32] <DopeSmoke> how would i download files from ubuntu on my local network to a windows machine on the same network
[16:33] <KI7MT> What you need is:
[16:33] <Jose3> scavmartin: /dev/sdb1 /media/Files fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096 0 0
[16:33] <KI7MT> !abs |prosys
[16:33] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: Logout your account, switch to console (Ctrl + Alt + F1), login as any sudo user, type in sudo -i to get root and run that command.
[16:33] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: mount -o remount,rw /
[16:33] <prosys> KI7MT: thank you
[16:34] <Psil0Cybin> thank you toxboi will try it now
[16:34] <igor2> who could help me with a problem concerning display?
[16:34] <mathsz> hi everyone
[16:34] <Jose3> hi
[16:34] <M4he> Hi, I set up an openbox standalone session on 13.04 with SLiM as dm. However, networkmanager and dropbox are still autostarting. Are there any other startup scripts that are automatically executed besides .xinitrc and openbox' autostart file?
[16:34] <scavmartin> Jose3: that is a NTFS formatted drive "/media/Files"; move\copy the directory and binary you want off of it, run the chmod command once on the unix FS and you should be all set
[16:35] <mathsz> I'm in trouble :( need some help
[16:35] <Psil0Cybin> what kind of help mathsz
[16:35] <eden_> Rory, still no luck this is how i am getting the website
[16:35] <eden_> Rory, http://imageupload.co.uk/files/6nozlwmidj506ogce69w.png
[16:36] <mathsz> psly0Cybin, tried renaming a user with usermod, logged as root
[16:36] <scavmartin> eden_: rory left "man wget"
[16:36] <mathsz> lost all files
[16:36] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I backup my windows system via network with my ubuntu system? I want to make a backup server. should I format the data hard drive NTFS? If so, will I need to defragment it later?
[16:36] <eden_> scavmartin, yes this is what i am using
[16:36] <eden_> scavmartin, i want to download a web page exactly as it looks
[16:37] <DopeSmoke> how would i download files from ubuntu on my local network to a windows machine on the same network
[16:37] <scavmartin> eden_: easiest way as I do not know the switches besides reading the wget page would be in firefox or chrome and save and select entire website
[16:38] <KI7MT> mathsz, what do you mean by lost, delete or can't find them ?
[16:38] <eden_> scavmartin, no this doesn't work
[16:38] <toxboi> DopeSmoke: If you're running SSH on your Ubuntu box, simply use WinSCP on windows and transfer the files.
[16:39] <prosys> KI7MT: do i need to hide the splash screen (plymouth hide-splash)?
[16:39] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi: now i have even more problems it says i cannot proceed because stuff is mounted now that i logged out and clicked CTRL ALT F1
[16:39] <Psil0Cybin> i was unable to login as root i had to login as my psil0cybin account
[16:39] <Psil0Cybin> how can i login as root if my root account is disabled?
[16:39] <chaotic_good> what mnin gigs for os partition in ubuntu?
[16:39] <chaotic_good> 4g?
[16:39] <Psil0Cybin> i ran the sudo -i command
[16:40] <mathsz> KI7MT : i used the usrmod command on a user and lost files. In terminal, If I log as root, I see the folder there
[16:40] <KI7MT> prosys, yes
[16:40] <Jose3> scavmartin: I have moved it to a different drive but chmod is still not changing it. Let me try one more time on the linux partition I've got
[16:40] <KI7MT> mathsz, what usermod command did you run
[16:41] <Psil0Cybin> scavmartin: what did you mean by mount..i tried what toxboi said but it also did not work
[16:41] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: can you paste that (please use pastebin)
[16:41] <Psil0Cybin> i cannot because its on another computer
[16:41] <Psil0Cybin> im using two laptops im in the CTRL+ALT+F1 console
[16:41] <mathsz> KI7MT usermod -l oldname newname, then, usermod -md oldname newname, this is where I screwed up
[16:41] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: that command I gave you will remount a read-only partition as read-write
[16:41] <Psil0Cybin> so what is the command
[16:41] <Psil0Cybin> and what is the command to turn it back to read-only how it was
[16:41] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: ofcourse, what exactly does it say is mounted?
[16:42] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: "mount -o remount,rw PARTITION" where partition is "/" or "/home" or the like to revert change rw to ro
[16:42] <Psil0Cybin> so can i find out the partition using fdisk
[16:42] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[16:43] <Psil0Cybin> i have three /dev/sda1 * (Linux) /dev/sda2 (Extended) /dev/sda5 (swap)
[16:43] <KI7MT> mathsz, if the structre is still there, as well as the files, make a new user, cp the old to new, then chown -R new-user:newuser
[16:43] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: "df -h" will show you all partitions and mount points, u want the mount point for the command above
[16:43] <Psil0Cybin> or do i do
[16:43] <Psil0Cybin> mount -o remount,rw /home
[16:43] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[16:44] <Psil0Cybin> or is it
[16:44] <Jose3> scavmartin: Thank you, the program is now running! Can I copy everything back to its original spot or would that interfere with its execution?
[16:44] <Psil0Cybin> mount -o rremount,rw sda1
[16:44] <mathsz> KI7MT: how do I copy the folder? I only see it if logged as root, and when logged as root, it's the only thing I see with the ls command
[16:44] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: yes if "/home" is it's mount
[16:44] <mathsz> KI7MT:already have another user created
[16:45] <scavmartin> Jose3: I would not expect your app to run on a NTFS drive, so no you cannot copy back, you could try and get lucky though
[16:45] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: yes was to "mount -o remount,rw /home"
[16:45] <Jose3> alright, I'll give it a quick go
[16:45] <KI7MT> mathsz, sudo cp /home/deleted-user /home/new-user && chown -R /home/new-user
[16:46] <Azoff> hello
[16:46] <daftykins> hi
[16:47] <Freeaqingme> Hi folks. I just had a full hdd, because some app created a 50Gib file. I deleted that file, but still df reports no space left on the device. Find does not find any files bigger than 50M, except for /proc/kcore (supposedly 128T)
[16:47] <mathsz> KI7MT, the home/deleted user does not exist anymore
[16:47] <Jose3> scavmartin: you're right, it does not work. Thank you again for all the help, guess I'll just have to run it from its new home!
[16:48] <scavmartin> Jose3: In general NTFS and linux\unix is not a good mix, I would recommend formatting your drive with ext4
[16:48] <mathsz> KI7MT, I only see it when logged as "root" and do the ls command
[16:48] <Azoff> I've got an old ASrock ION330HT running as a HTPC. Recently, I've started geting kernel panics when booting Ubuntu 12.04 when the power has been cut to it, for example when the powerplug has been removed from the wall-socket. When booting it when the power has been connected all the time since the last boot, it works as expected.
[16:48] <daftykins> Freeaqingme: what does the output of "df -h" show? any full partitions?
[16:48] <Jose3> scavmartin: will that still give me compatibility with windows? (I dual-boot)
[16:48] <scavmartin> Jose3: Unfortunately no :(
[16:48] <Jose3> =(
[16:49] <Azoff> I've digged a bit about the problem and have found that it's probably related to this upstream fix 9ef449c6b31bb6a8e6dedc24de475a3b8c79be20, but is there any kernel for 12.04 that got this changeset included?
[16:49] <Freeaqingme> daftykins, the relevant line is: /dev/mapper/nl2-root   49G   49G     0 100% /
[16:49] <Jose3> alright, well, thank you for all your help anyways
[16:49] <KI7MT> mathsz, ok, do it as root then, root cp .. .. .. ..
[16:49] <Freeaqingme> and a few seconds ago I had a file that was 47Gib in size, but htat has been deleted daftykins
[16:49] <daftykins> Azoff: i have that exact system. (bluray drive model) running xbmcbuntu. not seen that before, are you fully updated?
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> thank you scavmartin its doing it now
[16:50] <daftykins> Freeaqingme: odd! i'm not familiar with disk setups that come up as /dev/mapper i'm afraid
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> so once its done im going to mount it back as ro
[16:50] <Azoff> daftykins: yes I am, got a BT version too at home.
[16:50] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: your welcome :)
[16:50] <Freeaqingme> daftykins, hmz, it's just a regular ubuntu install I guess
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> it still is the same command right
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> i mount it again even tho its mounted?
[16:50] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: well /home should never be mounted as ro
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> to make it ro
[16:50] <Psil0Cybin> scavmartin: but it said it was readonly before?
[16:51] <Azoff> daftykins: from what I can tell, it only happens when the power has been remove completly to the box, probably ending up with garbage in the HW-buffer
[16:51] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: are you in a recovery shell or mode? yes the same command with ro will work
[16:51] <Psil0Cybin> i am in recovery shell
[16:51] <Psil0Cybin> yes
[16:51] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: What runlevel are you in? Type runlevel
[16:51] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi: its already doing the ecryptfs
[16:51] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: AH
[16:51] <Psil0Cybin> migrate home atm
[16:51] <toxboi> ok
[16:51] <daftykins> Azoff: are you running the latest BIOS?
[16:51] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: That is why, no need to remount as ro, I assume you are doing a disk check? Once done just exit recovery shell and you will be all set
[16:51] <mathsz> KI7MT, doesn't work. says : omittin directory
[16:51] <loa> Hello i am trying to make .desktop file with Icon absolute path, it is ok when it on desktop but when i move it to unity bar icon dissapears and i see standart icon for that application? What is wrong?
[16:51] <Psil0Cybin> doing a disk check?
[16:51] <Azoff> daftykins: I've been able to reproduce the issue about 10 times now by just removing the powerplug and wait for like 10 min.
[16:51] <Azoff> daftykins: let me check.
[16:52] <Freeaqingme> daftykins, a reboot it is then
[16:52] <Psil0Cybin> all i did so far was mount and run the ecryptfs-migrate-home command
[16:52] <Psil0Cybin> on my user
[16:52] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: Ok why are you in a recovery shell and working with your /home?
[16:52] <Psil0Cybin> am i good so far?
[16:52] <Psil0Cybin> because when i did CTRL+ALT+F1, it would only let me login as my user account
[16:52] <Azoff> daftykins: looking at the code, I'm possitive that the code is faulty however..
[16:52] <Susning> Hi! Is there any way to disable the option to unmount a device from the user interface? I have 3 disks that I really don't want to be able to unmount by clicking the "unmount/eject-button".. Any ideas?
[16:52] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: ahh you are encrypting the dir
[16:52] <Psil0Cybin> why did i do something wrong by being in recovery shell
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> your scaring me
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> aha
[16:53] <Freeaqingme> daftykins, a reboot apparently  cleared 45 Gib. tnx ;)
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> so wait scavmartin after im done encrypting
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> do i mount as ro
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> or just restart
[16:53] <KI7MT> mathsz, need the /* on the end /home/user/*
[16:53] <Psil0Cybin> im a bit confused
[16:53] <FloodBot1> Psil0Cybin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:54] <llutz> mathsz: use "cp -a ...."
[16:54] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: I actually have never done the encryption of home myself looking at it now - http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/
[16:54] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin: Don't use short sentences. You'll piss off FloodBot1 :)
[16:54] <Azoff> daftykins: I'm one bios version behind (got 1.10), don't think an update would help, but I'll give it a try
[16:55] <gerlos> Susning: you could add your devices in /etc/fstab, whitout the option "user", so system will mount them on boot, and users won't be able to umount them. There's a lot of docs about /etc/fstab on the Net
[16:55] <Susning> gerlos, that was my thought as well, doing something like that.
[16:55] <Susning> gerlos, they are already all in fstab so that would only be adding/changing some options, right?
[16:56] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: from what I read you do not need to be in recovery mode. I believe you should have just booted normally ran that command (it would have worked as /home would be rw on a normal boot) and proceed from there. IE booting into a recovery shell seems to have been your initial mistake but from what I read you should be all set.
[16:56] <mathsz> KI7MT: so, sudo cp -a aosp1 /home/newuser* && chown -R /home/newuser seems to be working
[16:56] <gerlos> Susning: right. Fundamentally, you need to remove the option that let normal users mount/umount the device.
[16:57] <Susning> gerlos the only option now is "defaults"
[16:57] <KI7MT> mathsz, ok do this for me: sudo apt-get install pastebinit %% ls -al /home | pastebinit  then post that link
[16:57] <Susning> does that mean i need to add each option one and one, since i'm not going to have it on defaults any more?
[16:57] <gerlos> Susning: good. It should do "the right thing" ;-)
[16:57] <Susning> gerlos - but it was already defaults. and i was able to unmount it as user.
[16:57] <Psil0Cybin> okay so just to double check oneeee last time because im super cautious :-) I Do not run any commands after the encryption process is complete, I just restart? Or is the mount command to turn the system back to RO, Still Necessary to ensure i do not cause problems later? Sorry I know im going around with circles just want to be double sure, so i can dust my hands off in relaxation.
[16:57] <KI7MT> mathsz,  sudo apt-get install pastebinit && ls -al /home | pastebinit
[16:58] <Psil0Cybin> scavmartin:
[16:58] <gerlos> Susning: can I see you /etc/fstab?
[16:58] <Susning> gerlos - of course. wait
[16:58] <scavmartin> Psil0Cybin: I would run the test commands in the articly I provided once done, and then yes you can reboot and no need to switch back to ro
[16:59] <Psil0Cybin> okay im going to read the article now
[16:59] <mathsz> KI7MT: can't for now, it's "busy"
[16:59] <Susning> gerlos, http://pastebin.com/M2JfzVDq sorry for the high amount of tabs. it's for me being able to see them all aligned in even rows
[17:00] <Susning> gerlos, actually i don't want any of those to be unmountable for user.
[17:00] <loa> Hello i am trying to change icon of application on unity dock but it always showed as chrome icon here is screenshot http://s009.radikal.ru/i310/1309/5c/cb22e00cb2f0.png and code of application launcher http://pastebin.com/eGUreUP1
[17:00] <loa> what i am doing wrong?
[17:00] <KI7MT> mathsz, cp -avr was probably better say to go, then chown -R /home/new-user .. but if your getting it done now, no need to pastebinit
[17:01] <Azoff> daftykins: flashed with the latest bios and awaiting the power to be completly off
[17:01] <mathsz> KI7MT excuse my noobiness, again. when it is done copying, the other user should have access to the files, right?
[17:01] <gerlos> Susning: sorry? I didn't understand your needs. I thought you wanted to make those mounts "permanent", so users can't umount them...
[17:01] <daftykins> Azoff: ok
[17:01] <Susning> yes, that is my needs gerlos
[17:02] <Susning> but now, my user CAN unmount them, from the user interface. that can cause major fuckups since i have symlinks and other stuff that gets messy if those disks get unmounted.
[17:02] <KI7MT> mathsz, you need to give ownership with chown -R, then the new-user should see them.
[17:03] <Susning> gerlos Mainly it is the Dropbox-disk that first of all holds my Dropbox-folder, but also is symlinked as my Documents folder etc.. So I really want to disable the possibility to unmount that particular drive. And if possible, Storage, 1080p and 720p as well.
[17:03] <Psil0Cybin> scavmartin: Thanks for the guide, I am going to run all those commands once it is done. What does it mean I must login immediately before the next reboot to complete the migration, if thats the case...and im in root shell, what would i do/
[17:03] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[17:04] <Psil0Cybin> lol encrypting 500gbs sure is taking a while.
[17:05] <gerlos> Susnig: "defaults" should be enough to avoid normal users to mount/umount a disk
[17:06] <wilee-nilee>  /ignore Psil0Cybin
[17:06] <gerlos> Susning: at least, it works this way on the ubuntu 13.4 in front of me right now
[17:06] <wilee-nilee> [10:06] (wilee-nilee)  /ignore Psil0Cybin
[17:06] <bunt> guys i tried to put a password on grub2 ... did grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2... edited  /etc/grub.d/00_header pasted the result with cat << EOF, set superusers=user, password user ... etc update-grub
[17:07] <bunt> now i cannot not only edit grub entriees
[17:07] <ppppo> ciao
[17:07] <ppppo> !list
[17:07] <bunt> but it asks for password just to boot the system
[17:07] <bunt> am i screwed?
[17:07] <bunt> the password i set up does not work
[17:07] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi: sorry question if im in recovery shell and i need to login before restart
[17:07] <Psil0Cybin> what would i do? in order to loginto my user account?
[17:08] <gerlos> Susning: try to add "nouser" option, replacing "defaults" with "defaults,nouser"
[17:08] <Susning> gerlos - maybe my problem is that the system ALSO mounts the same folder to /media/Dropbox - which i actually don't want.
[17:08] <Susning> It is if I unmount /media/Dropbox the mount to /home/marcus/Dropbox falls as well
[17:09] <gerlos> Susning: maybe. Put those permanent mount points under the standard path: /mnt/
[17:09] <Susning> gerlos so i suppose the disk is automounted, even when i already have mounted it.
[17:09] <KI7MT> bunt, no, your not, dont panic, you can use resume to reset root PW
[17:09] <KI7MT> if needed
[17:09] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi: like it says i must login immediately before the next reboot, but im in the recovery shell, so how am I able to do that
[17:09] <Psil0Cybin> did i already mess up?
[17:09] <Susning> gerlos - thanks, i will do that and see if that helps. otherwise add nouser.
[17:10] <Psil0Cybin> anyone familiour with the ecryptfs-migrate-home process?
[17:10] <gerlos> Susning: /media/ shouldn't be used for permanent mount points
[17:10] <gerlos> leave it for the system
[17:10] <bountyhunter> hello guys : Can pendrive linux software be used to create external hard drives bootable too? or is it just for pendrives
[17:11] <Psil0Cybin> depends on if the device is supported
[17:11] <gerlos> bountyhunter: there shouldn't be any difference... I think that it will work the same
[17:11] <bunt> KI7MT: what do you mean by using resume?
[17:11] <Psil0Cybin> scavmartin:
[17:12] <KI7MT> bunt, recovery mode from the boot menu
[17:12] <loa> Hello, i am trying change icon of application launcher in unity dock, application launcher now have such code http://pastebin.com/GHuyALK2 but i again recieve default chrome application icon http://s009.radikal.ru/i310/1309/5c/cb22e00cb2f0.png
[17:12] <GarrettKajmowicz> Greetings! How can I go about resuming the boot process in 12.04 after I've been dumped to the Busybox shell and manually mounted the root filesystem?
[17:12] <loa> i found that there was bug using absolute path but looks like it was fixed
[17:13] <loa> here is link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bamf/+bug/1201408
[17:13] <bunt> KI7MT: my password locks GRUB2 entries. i cannot enter anything, including windows - asks me for password
[17:13] <KI7MT> bunt, boot machine, hold shift, select recovery mode, select root, mount -rw -o remount / , passwd <your-sudo-account> and reset PW
[17:13] <bunt> KI7MT: its a grub2 password
[17:14] <Psil0Cybin> anyone familiour with the ecryptfs-migrate-home process? i need some help for after im done encrypting my home directory.
[17:14] <KI7MT> bunt, Ohh... my bad sri .. your Grub PW is busted?
[17:15] <bunt> KI7MT: not sure what happened....  i just set it up following this -> http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=13076 --- i thought it would only lock grub2 entries against editing but it doesnt boot the system at all
[17:15] <Susning> gerlos - thanks, this already looks much cleaner.
[17:16] <Susning> gerlos - after adding them to /mnt/ instead they all disapeared from "Devices" in the user interface which was even better then i expected. Since I have symlincs for them all on other places it was just messy having them there. I would be happy if i just got rid of the "unmount button", this is even better :D
[17:16] <bunt> KI7MT: any ideas?....
[17:18] <gerlos> Susning: did you try to logout and login again in the system, to see if those "unmount buttons" are still there?
[17:18] <KI7MT> bunt, reinstall grub2 from LiveCD, and dont PW protest grub :-) .. : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing
[17:18] <KI7MT> .. dont PW protect grub2 .. ..
[17:19] <KI7MT> Unless your seriously worried abotu security, then there's better ways to do that, like PW the BIOS
[17:19] <bunt> KI7MT: im afraid i encrypted entire partition... damn im stupid ...
[17:19] <bunt> :/
[17:20] <Psil0Cybin> bunt im encrypting my home directory now
[17:20] <KI7MT> encryption is a different kettle of fish, if you encrypted the partition, and dont have the PW< then that could be an issue.
[17:20] <Psil0Cybin> but i may have made a vital mistake.
[17:20] <Psil0Cybin> waiting for someone to help me and let me know :(
[17:20] <Psil0Cybin> while its still encrypting.
[17:22] <toxboi> Psil0Cybin:  Press Ctrl + Alt + F7 and login
[17:23] <loa> hello, how i can change icon of application launcher in uinty dock?
[17:24] <loa> i tried absolute path but looks like it is broken
[17:24] <mathsz> KI7MT , is says : missing operand after /home/newuser
[17:25] <Susning> gerlos - it's no longer a problem since those devices are no longer showing up as separate devices - just as I want it. So as said, even better then before.
[17:25] <Susning> I will reboot and see how it acts as soon as my Dropbox folder have synced...
[17:26] <gerlos> Susning: good
[17:26] <xteam> hi
[17:27] <Susning> gerlos it was kind of annoying before since i have like... 6 disks, which of 2 are partitions on them.. all where listed before this, which was really not needed since that's not how i browse them.
[17:27] <Susning> :)
[17:27] <gerlos> Susning: actually, you shouldn't need to reboot. Just logout and login again should be enough (and faster!)
[17:27] <Susning> gerlos, i've done "mount -a" and at least that looks good. no errors, and everything turns up as i want.
[17:28] <gerlos> Susning: same situation here. 3 disks, one for the system, one for data and one for backups. Put them in fstab with standard mount points, and forgot of them, since they just work ;-)
[17:29] <Susning> gerlos - by the way, should the windows system show up as two devices/disks?
[17:29] <Susning> gerlos - there is one called "Windows", and one called "System Reserved".
[17:30] <gerlos> Susning: sorry don't understand your question - maybe a screenshot may help
[17:31] <llutz> Susning: it's normal, ~100MB system-reserved/bootpartition + xxGB windows systempartition
[17:31] <Susning> gerlos http://imgur.com/9ZnRqxr
[17:31] <Susning> aah, thanks llutz.
[17:31] <Susning> the small one seems to be boot related
[17:32] <faugusztin> Susning: the small 100MB one is a recovery thingy
[17:32] <sandthd> can I install ubuntu to and boot from an usb3 hard drive?
[17:33] <Susning> faugusztin, maybe from when i repaired the boot-thingie after moving windows from one disk to another..
[17:33] <llutz> Susning: that 100MB bootpartition is created by windows at installation time if you don't install it into an already existing partition. it holds boot-stuff
[17:34] <llutz> Susning: its nothing wrong with it, just don't touch it :)
[17:34] <Susning> llutz, ok. so it shouldnt be touched then if i understand you correctly ;)
[17:35] <Susning> :)
[17:37] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi: can i do that if im in the recovery shell, i dont think so
[17:37] <Psil0Cybin> so i think i made a big big big mistake
[17:37] <Psil0Cybin> or will CTRL + ALT + F1 work for the recovery shell too
[17:37] <Psil0Cybin> i was thinking id have to type like logout
[17:38] <Psil0Cybin> then log back in and then try startxfce4? but i doubt that will work in recovery shell.

[17:53] <rb-tnc>  Hello all, I am having a horrid issue and its driving me to the point of suicide, I have been trying to figure it out for weeks, every time i think i get it I'm wrong. Nautilus and Nemo prior to me removing it is constantly crashing. It happens when i go to execute commands like, right click, new, open, delete, ect. Here is the dmesg output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6129246/  and here is the output from running 'gksudo nautilus'
[17:53] <rb-tnc> in terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6129247/ any help WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
[17:54] <ax_ses> Does anyone here know how to extract OFDM symbols from a router. Or how to access the router's DSP?
[17:54] <moorvogi> @rb-tnc: i would help if i could m8. i'm still learnin things. dont want to stear you wrong.
[17:55] <Psil0Cybin> toxboi:
[17:55] <Psil0Cybin> i have a question are you still here
[17:55] <rb-tnc> yea
[17:55] <kenshiro> Hi, I read that Ubuntu 14.04 and future versions will be rolling releases (No more new releases each 6 months, instead the same release upgraded for a long time) . Is that right?
[17:56] <DJones> kenshiro: No its not, releases will continue every 6 months, LTS every 2 years and support for normal releases will only be for 9 months
[17:56] <k1l> rb-tnc: which ubuntu is that exactly? and why did you use/install nemo?
[17:57] <DJones> kenshiro: LTS will be supported for 5 years
[17:57] <kenshiro> DJones I understand, thank you :-)
[17:58] <rb-tnc> k1l: 3.6.3 because nemo has options nautilus dont, u cant access setting in nautilus when run as root and it has other options dont require installing addon packages
[17:58] <rb-tnc> k1l: I did like nautilus until the last update
[17:58] <k1l> rb-tnc: well, if you use 3rd party packages/programs please seek their support
[17:59] <quantumpants_> hi guys, I want to learn C++, can anybody advise me what app/programme i should use to write it.  I need a interpreter and a debugger. any idea's?
[17:59] <moorvogi> opinion time! I dont do alot on my ubuntu box, just farting around.. learning the system. do you think i need a dedicated swap drive? (16gig ram in box)
[17:59] <rb-tnc> k1l: ?
[17:59] <jpds_> quantumpants_: g++ and gdb.
[17:59] <rb-tnc> k1l: nautilus is not a 3rd party program
[17:59] <quantumpants_> thanks jpds
[17:59] <moorvogi> @quantumpants: me too. looking for an IDE based compiler
[18:00] <k1l> rb-tnc: so you removed nautilus and installed nemo?
[18:00] <rb-tnc> k1l: no
[18:00] <rb-tnc> k1l: nautilus is installed thats it
[18:00] <jpds_> moorvogi: What's wrong with g++ ?
[18:00] <KI7MT> quantumpants_, Info: http://gcc.gnu.org/
[18:01] <rb-tnc> k1l: i never removed it, i installed nemo to try and just avoid the issue but that also crashes under the same conditions
[18:01] <polter> moorvogi: I think most IDE's on Linux uses GCC/G++ but let's you specify another if needed
[18:01] <k1l> rb-tnc: which ubuntu is that exactly? what did you do /install/remove before that happened? what did cause that segfaults?
[18:01] <k1l> rb-tnc: so you installed nemo and since then nautilus crashes?
[18:01] <rb-tnc> k1l: 13.04 64bit
[18:01] <GarrettKajmowicz> How can I go about resuming the boot process in 12.04 after I've been dumped to the Busybox shell and manually mounted the root filesystem?
[18:02] <moorvogi> @polter hrm.. i'll have to go look again.
[18:02] <rb-tnc> k1l:  no nautilus was crashing prior, i installed nemo to just avoid the issue but that didnt work, I have been dealing with the issue for a while and trying to fix it with no luck
[18:03] <quantumpants_> thanks for your help guys
[18:03] <rb-tnc> k1l: if i knew what has been causing it I wouldnt be asking for help ;)
[18:03] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, you probably can't until you fix the reason you got dumped in the first place.
[18:04] <rb-tnc> k1l: I want to say the issue started after the distro upgrade 13.04.01 but I am not sure
[18:04] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I don't know why it's dumping. If I boot my old kernel image, it boots up fine. If I boot the new kernel images, I get dumped to the busybox shell.
[18:05] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: Any suggestions on how to debug this?
[18:05] <quantumpants_> guys i cant download g++, im running 12.04.  any ideas on how i can get round it? or any other ideas?  "The following packages have unmet dependencies:  g++: Depends: cpp (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed      Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed"
[18:05] <lix> rb-tnc: related to a 32bit vs. 64bit issue regarding libgobject-2.0.so? (a guess...)
[18:05] <k1l> rb-tnc: there is no 13.04.1      the .1 releases are only for LTS
[18:06] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, did you go an automated update to the new kernel  or a custom build? dmesg | less may shed some light on what's happening.
[18:06] <KI7MT> did you do an automated .. ..
[18:06] <bekks> quantumpants_: run sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[18:06] <rb-tnc> k1l: well whatever the last big upgrade was a few weeks ago when it updated it ran as distro upgrade rather than normal update, I dont know if that was just because the actual update sw was being updated or whatever
[18:06] <k1l> rb-tnc: i never heard of such an issue. best bet is to file a bug and report that to launchpad and see if the maintainers/developers have a clue
[18:07] <quantumpants_> thanks Be
[18:07] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: This happened when I updated to 12.04 from 10.04 LTS. I've not done any custom kernel building.
[18:07] <k1l> !bug | rb-tnc
[18:07] <quantumpants_> thanksbekks
[18:08] <rb-tnc> k1l: ok was hoping that wasnt the answer I was gonna get but thanks anyways
[18:08] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I've done updates over and over. dmesg doesn't get me much. If you care to PM me an email address I can forward you photos of screen shots of what the scrollback buffer would show me of the dmsg output. I can't page everything because we don't have job control at this point.
[18:08] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, ahh .. ok, that could be all sorts of things then, but look through dmesg for kernel driver issues, modprobe issues things of that sort, it most likely (this is a guess) that a driver or module is causing you problems.
[18:09] <GeekDude> As per my previous statement, does anybody know if/how I can make Xming show a closer representation of the window? Right now, it shows a window with a smaller font, and some extra captions on the buttons
[18:09] <GeekDude> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2808065/Caps/Temp/19134917.png
[18:09] <tomc603> Is there a more populated channel that is willing to give general help for a problem with "indicator-message" not working properly?
[18:09] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: The only thing I've noticed is that when I get dumped to Busybox the root filesystem isn't mounted. However, simply typing "mount /dev/md0 /root -o ro" works flawlessly.
[18:10] <lix> rb-tnc: related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1202315 ?
[18:10] <tomc603> Or a channel where someone might know how an app sends a notification to the indicator and how I might debug that interaction?
[18:10] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: How would I diagnose this?
[18:11] <rb-tnc> lix: it may be
[18:11] <bekks> GarrettKajmowicz: Unmount it, run fsck -f on the filesystem.
[18:11] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, one other thing you may try is to update grub2 also. boot the kernel that works, and do a grub update.
[18:11] <lix> rb-tnc: are you using this soure? ppa:gwendal-lebihan-dev/cinnamon-nightly
[18:11] <lix> rb-tnc: ... for nemo?
[18:12] <rb-tnc> lix: that bugs for 13.10, nemo is not installed
[18:12] <lix> rb-tnc: ah no, sorry. - you said 13.05
[18:12] <lix> s/13.05/13.04
[18:12] <GarrettKajmowicz> bekks: fsck passes. mdadm shows the filesystem as healthy. And I've done a grub update/re-install. Still no luck.
[18:12] <bekks> GarrettKajmowicz: You should investigate the status of the filesystem and not randomly install grub2.
[18:12] <lix> rb-tnc: k
[18:12] <bekks> GarrettKajmowicz: Did you run fsck, or fsck -f ?
[18:12] <rb-tnc> lix: I installed nemo to try and avoid the issue but that was also crashing so i removed it
[18:13] <Psil0Cybin> hey guys anyone know i changed /home to rw before running ecryptfs-migrate-home do i need to make my /home directory read only again?
[18:13] <lix> rb-tnc: oh, I understand
[18:13] <Psil0Cybin> or is it fine as rw.
[18:13] <rb-tnc> lix: I looked in launch pad and didnt see any bugs that are related to mine, now that just may be because I am not educated enough to realize it
[18:14] <GarrettKajmowicz> bekks: I'm pretty certain I did so with -f. It took a long time to run and went through ~5 phases. It didn't just say "filesystem marked clean".
[18:15] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, also check this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/951526
[18:15] <lix> rb-tnc: maybe this is related too: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1092046
[18:15] <lix> rb-tnc: as I saw you have Dropbox installed too...
[18:15] <rb-tnc> lix: i have the dmesg output and terminal outputs I dont know if you seen them when i posted before: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6129246/  http://paste.ubuntu.com/6129247/
[18:16] <lix> rb-tnc: trying to help but it seems to tough for me. - sorry
[18:16] <rb-tnc> lix: yea i tried uninstalling that because i read about that causing bugs still crashed
[18:16] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, also, which kernel version is failing?
[18:16] <lix> rb-tnc: mhmm...
[18:17] <rb-tnc> lix: i understand and i appreciate me trust me, I'm at a loss.  I solved my issue. I just had to give xming the command line flag -dpi 96.
[18:17] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I don't have LTSP installed, so I don't think that bug applies.
[18:18] <KI7MT> What do you have installed?
[18:18] <KI7MT> and the kernel version that's dropping to busybox?
[18:19] <lix> rb-tnc: looks like. but I prefer to find the bug before cleaning it by setting up a fresh system, as it might contribute to a fix
[18:19] <zykotick9> rb-tnc: if you decide to clean install, remember that adding PPAs basically voids your ubuntu warranty ;)  i'd try to avoid them, if you can...
[18:19] <rb-tnc> lix: that last links seems to be my issue i need to read more to be sure though
[18:19] <Psil0Cybin> hey guys quick question what is the default permissions that /home should have
[18:19] <lix> rb-tnc: good. hope it helps
[18:19] <dougbb> Anyone else having problems with the new tbird?
[18:19] <saiarcot895> dougbb: I am
[18:19] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: All versions >= 2.6.32-47 are failing (including 3.2.0-51) and dropping to busybox. Version 2.6.32-46 succeeds. However, that was the last kernel image which was built before I attempted to upgrade to 12.04. It's possible it's a userspace boot application issue.
[18:19] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: what ever you want it to be - you can make it as secure or as open as you want
[18:20] <saiarcot895> dougbb: folders duplicated, error with Bamboo Feed Reader (but seems to work fine)
[18:20] <dougbb> saiarcot895: the compose window is screwed up on mine, you seeing the same?
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: i want to make it as secure as possible, when i was encrypting my home drive i had to mount /home as rw
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> do you think that is fine to leave like that?
[18:20] <saiarcot895> dougbb: compose window seems to be fine
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> or do i have to mount it as mo?
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> ro**
[18:20] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: mine says: drwxr-xr-x 61 root       root               4.0K Sep 10 15:57 .
[18:20] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: it has to be read-write
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> okay
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> so thats fine
[18:20] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: why are you encypting it ? is your data really "that" private
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> that i mount /home as rw
[18:20] <dougbb> saiarcot895: interesting
[18:20] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: nope but i like the idea of keeping things private.
[18:20] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: it has to be mounted read/write - what's more important is the permissions
[18:21] <jjavaholic> is there a game like terraria that I can play in ubuntu?
[18:21] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: you'll find more problems with encyption
[18:21] <Psil0Cybin> well so far, my system "was not" encrypted
[18:21] <saiarcot895> dougbb: I'm guessing its profile needs to be deleted and recreated from scratch due to version incompatibilities
[18:21] <zykotick9> Psil0Cybin: ubuntu's (and debian's) default for home dirs of drwxr-xr-x is rather unusual.  many other distros aren't so open by default...
[18:21] <Psil0Cybin> but now it looks like it is without a problem
[18:21] <trism> rb-tnc: you don't have the gnome ppa do you? because nautilus-dropbox is crashing in a similar manner with nautilus 3.8, bug 1193522
[18:21] <dougbb> ikonia, there is nothing wrong with encryption :)
[18:21] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: what do you mean "it is"
[18:21] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: have you configured encyption on it, yes or now ?
[18:21] <ikonia> no
[18:21] <rb-tnc> lix: unfortunatly thats not the same bug ;(
[18:21] <Psil0Cybin> yes
[18:21] <lix> dougbb: upgraded tbird yesterday and it works fine for me. did you upgrade the plugins as well?
[18:21] <rb-tnc> trism: no i dont
[18:21] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: how did you encypt it ?
[18:21] <dougbb> saiarcot895: yeah, that is what I was afraid of :-/
[18:22] <dougbb> lix: yes
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> i ran ecryptfs-migrate-home -u psil0cybin (my username)
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> what happend was it said i could not write to a file
[18:22] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, or a kernel parameter that's being passed which is causing an issue, like rootdelay=90
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> so someone told me to mount /home as rw
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> and i did that and it worked
[18:22] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: well, good luck with that then, I suspect you'll hit a problem in approx 30 days.
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> why is that ikonia
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[18:22] <rb-tnc> trism: and i have tried removing all traces of db to solve the issue because i read a bunch of bugs involving db extensions
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> do please explain because everything seems perfectly fine atn.
[18:22] <Psil0Cybin> atm*
[18:22] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I have a non-GUI server install which I've upgraded many times. Apparently the LTSP package is used for thin client setups, which is why I said I wasn't running it. I also checked to see if I had it installed, and I don't.
[18:23] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: It's based just off experience with people's problems in this channel. Encrypted home directories seem to cause problems
[18:23] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: because encyption is not as straight forward as it seems and new users/inexperienced users seem to hit a problem within a month that causes them to either lose their data or be locked out of it and lose it for ever
[18:23] <maxforthewin> hey everybody is there how kows about squid proxy with webmin
[18:23] <maxforthewin> ?
[18:23] <Rory> !webmin | maxforthewin
[18:23] <ikonia> maxforthewin: webmin is not supported on ubuntu
[18:23] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: w2hat ever i might as well learn now its not like its my school computer.
[18:23] <dougbb> Psil0Cybin: FWIW, I have had very good look with truecrypt, fwiw
[18:23] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: as I said "good luck" then
[18:23] <tasse> Hi, I just configured a FTP server with proftp. Everything seems to work fine but whenever I login I don't see any files (the files in the directory are owned by the user that is logging in). The proftp log files dont help me at all (no errors or anything)
[18:23] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I've tried passing in rootdelay=15 and the system booted within 2 seconds.
[18:23] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: Make sure you have backups, then absolutely play with encryption
[18:24] <Psil0Cybin> oh man everyones scaring me :P
[18:24] <Psil0Cybin> aha
[18:24] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, so the upgrade is a server lts to lts .. ok.
[18:24] <maxforthewin> i have installed it but i don't know how to configure my server is there anybody how could help me ouver teamviewer ? that would be great ? :)
[18:24] <ikonia> tasse: I suspect it's logging you into FTP root, rather than the real file system you expect
[18:24] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: Right. Given that it's my home email server/web proxy/etc., I prefer to minimize the number of times I change distros. It takes time and causes angst.  :-)
[18:24] <ikonia> maxforthewin: webmin is not supported on ubuntu,
[18:24] <Psil0Cybin> so you guys think im fine with my home permissions? How can i quickly check what permissions my home folder are, so i can check if it is the same as you guys.
[18:25] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: it shouldn't be the "same as us"
[18:25] <tasse> but the log files tell me that it is chrooting to the correct directory
[18:25] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: it should be what you want/need to make your system ru
[18:25] <ikonia> run
[18:25] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, nailing this down not gonna me quick / easy,. it's module, driver or parameter, none-of-which are easily nailed in busybox
[18:25] <Rory> Psil0Cybin: If it's working, and it's as secure as you require, then it's good.
[18:25] <GarrettKajmowicz> KI7MT: I first started trying to diagnose this in July. I know about Not Quick.  :-)
[18:26] <KI7MT> LOL
[18:26] <GarrettKajmowicz> I'll take any help I can get.
[18:26] <Psil0Cybin> yes but if my home directory is encrypted, but its read/write, does that mean that only other user accounts can change the files?
[18:26] <tasse> is there any possibility to check in which directory the user is ikonia ? (except for the logs?)
[18:26] <Psil0Cybin> rory: i just want to make sure that no one else but me can see my home directory
[18:26] <Psil0Cybin> or add files into it etc.
[18:27] <KI7MT> GarrettKajmowicz, to be honest, the best route is probably going into ubuntu-dev / kernel or server .. ubuntu-dev and kernel gurus are all over this stuff.
[18:27] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: so make the permisson 700 then
[18:27] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: or rwx--
[18:27] <maxforthewin> is there anybody who can help me you could write me an email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and I give you the passwort and the id for teamviewer
[18:27] <ikonia> maxforthewin: stop asking
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: sorry im kind of new i would run the command chmod /home 700 ?
[18:27] <ikonia> maxforthewin: webmin is NOT supported
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> how can i check what the permission is
[18:27] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: no, thats the home directory, not YOUR home directory
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> atm
[18:27] <Pici> maxforthewin: we don't provide remote support here period.
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> so
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> chmod /home/psil0cybin 700
[18:27] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[18:27] <maxforthewin> but I don't know how to do it in a other way
[18:27] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: you really are running before waling looking at encyption before basic permissions
[18:28] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: sudo chmod -R 700 /home/psil0cybin
[18:28] <Psil0Cybin> yea probably am :(
[18:28] <Psil0Cybin> okay last question ikonia and ill leave you alone, how can i check the permissions of a folder
[18:28] <Psil0Cybin> before i change anything
[18:28] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: open it in the file manager and right click on it
[18:28] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: it's in the properties menu
[18:29] <Bower^> hey. i'm hoping someone can help me with getting ubuntu installed on my new machine. it basically kills my display when i attempt to boot up Ubuntu or the LiveCD. please check the following thread for more details: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2175316
[18:29] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: it just says Access: read and write, Group: psil0cybin Access: none, Others: none
[18:29] <Psil0Cybin> is that fine
[18:29] <Psil0Cybin> ?
[18:29] <Bower^> i'm quite worried this doesn't have a solution meaning i can't do work on my new machine...
[18:29] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: ok, so think about that that means
[18:29] <dougbb> Psil0Cybin: ls -ld <foldername>
[18:30] <Psil0Cybin> ikonia: if i am not wrong it looks like only I can edit my home folder or view it
[18:30] <Psil0Cybin> and only I can read and write to it
[18:30] <Psil0Cybin> correct?
[18:30] <Psil0Cybin> if others could, it would be selected in others correct?
[18:30] <ikonia> Psil0Cybin: pretty much
[18:31] <Psil0Cybin> okay so i guess i can just leave it as is, if i want it to only be accessible to me.
[18:31] <GeekDude> Is it just me, or will gedit not come out of full-screen mode while using xming over ssh?
[18:32] <chaotic_good> does JFS work with lvm2 resize2fs
[18:32] <chaotic_good> ?
[18:32] <Pici> GeekDude: you're likely not running a window manager.
[18:32] <ikonia> chaotic_good: why are you using JFS, it's pretty dead in the real world
[18:33] <GeekDude> Pici: I don't understand. "Window manager"?
[18:33] <Bower^> are the any common fixes for getting a display when booting up from HDD/LiveCD besides enabling "nomodeset"?
[18:34] <Pici> GeekDude: is a program than manages windows, otherwise your programs will just show up on the root display and you won't be able to move or minimize/maximize them.  Compiz and metacity are both popular window managers.
[18:34] <GeekDude> Pici: XMing seems to have broken my clipboard
[18:35] <GeekDude> Pici: I hit F11 to make it look like this, but hitting F11 again doesn't isable it https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2808065/Caps/Temp/19143355.png
[18:36] <quantumpants> Can anybody please advise me on where i can find a working download link for "sudo apt-get upgrade" :)
[18:36] <bekks> quantumpants: Thats a command to be typed in your terminal.
[18:37] <rypervenche> He means the repositories for his sources.list I believe.
[18:37] <GeekDude> Pici: what's the difference between compiz and xming? are they fundamentally different?
[18:37] <delinquentme> how to get website via curl with port number?
[18:38] <ikonia> delinquentme: have you done "man curl" to see the options
[18:38] <Pici> GeekDude: xming is not a window manager. Its a display server.
[18:38] <Pici> quantumpants: What release of Ubuntu are you currently running?
[18:38] <quantumpants> Bekks, I tryed that and I didnt seem to work.  pici im running 12.04.
[18:39] <Pici> quantumpants: Why didn't it work, what happened instead?
[18:39] <liquiz> hi all
[18:39] <bekks> quantumpants: What happens exactly, whats the exact error message?
[18:39] <GeekDude> Pici: You're suggesting I install Compiz and use it in conjunction with XMing, or should I just use VNC and forget about X
[18:39] <delinquentme> ikonia, theres like a million options
[18:39] <quantumpants> Pici. hold on ill get it now
[18:40] <Pici> GeekDude: I'd personally use metacity.  I was just giving examples of what a window manager was.
[18:40] <KI7MT> curl  http://<web-site.com:##### is the basic command + options
[18:40] <KI7MT> without the < of course :-)
[18:40] <GeekDude> Pici: Is it possible to use X forwarding over SSH to view already-opened applications?
[18:40] <ikonia> delinquentme: so read them and look for the port option
[18:41] <Pici> GeekDude: not to my nowledge.
[18:41] <delinquentme> ikonia, you're a shitty human
[18:41] <Pici> er, knowledge.
[18:41] <Pici> !language | delinquentme
[18:41] <quantumpants> Ok Bekks and Pici, it all seems to be working but im still unable to download g++ from the Softwere centre
[18:41] <bekks> quantumpants: Why?
[18:41] <eer> Is there a command that gives me the brand of the graphics card (like MSI)? The machine is running right now and I can not turn it upside down.
[18:41] <bekks> eer: lspci
[18:41] <Pici> eer: lshw as well.
[18:41] <quantumpants> this> g++: Depends: cpp (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed      Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed
[18:42] <KI7MT> delinquentme, that wasn't very nice either, we're all here trying to help.
[18:42] <bekks> quantumpants: Use a pastebin to show us the complete, full, exact error message please.
[18:42] <GeekDude> Pici: I think I will just use VNC. I feel it fits my needs better. Any reason I would want to use X forwarding instead of VNC?
[18:42] <eer> bekks, Pici not both don't show it. They only show GeForece 7400GT
[18:42] <ikonia> delinquentme: the man page is there for a reason - checking for the port option on how to use it is a simple/basic first point of call
[18:42] <quantumpants> As you can tell guys im very new to all things computers
[18:42] <ikonia> delinquentme: that's all other people will do is read the man page, find the option and tell you, so checking yourself is a good start
[18:42] <delinquentme> ikonia, thanks
[18:42] <bekks> eer: Thats an Nvidia. Neither MSI, or other companies manufacture graphics cards.
[18:43] <GeekDude> Pici: Is a window manager something that I would need in windows to use x forwarding properply, or is it something that would already be installed on, say, ubuntu 12.04LTS
[18:43] <user15_> hlhjlhjlh
[18:43] <quantumpants> bekks, this seems to be the full message. =The following packages have unmet dependencies:  g++: Depends: cpp (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed      Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.6.2-4ubuntu1) but 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 is to be installed
[18:44] <bekks> quantumpants: Use a pastebin to show us the complete, full, exact error message please.
[18:44] <GeekDude> Pici: (Desktop edition)
[18:44] <bekks> !pastebin | quantumpants
[18:44] <bekks> quantumpants: And pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; too
[18:45] <Pici> GeekDude: If you already use the desktop edition, then you already use a window manager, you would just need it to be running before you start running your apps.
[18:45] <quantumpants> Sorry bekks, im new to ubuntu. might take me a while to work out sorry
[18:46] <bekks> quantumpants: Just read what ubottu told you.
[18:46] <KI7MT> quackgyver, Install build-essential gives you gcc and g++
[18:46] <KI7MT> whoops .. was ment for quantumpants
[18:47] <GeekDude> Pici: Fullscreen toggle works great in the desktop environment over VNC, but it won't let me toggle off while on windows with XMing. I'm unsure how this has anything to do with my window manager.
[18:47] <gordonjcp> heh, I was about to say, just apt-get install build-essential
[18:47] <quantumpants> on it bekks :)
[18:47] <KI7MT> I has other tools also, but that will pull the gcc deps.
[18:49] <jhutchins> build-essentialls will also install the kitchen sink, along with several choices of curtains to go over it, but it will get the job done.
[18:50] <frozenlock> Is there a way to force ubuntu to accept an IP as a broadcast? I want to keep my current IP, netmask and broadcast address, by I want to add another address as a broadcast.
[18:50] <eer> bekks, http://www.cdrinfo.com/Sections/Reviews/Print.aspx?ArticleId=18130
[18:50] <KI7MT> Indeed, it's allot, but for those that dont navigate through shark infested waters, it's a quick solution.
[18:50] <mackwerk_> Hi I need to route all my internet traffic through a proxy I have on localhost:8080 but I can't seem to find anything tangible on that, does any of you know how?
[18:51] <quantumpants> bekks, http://imagebin.org/271379
[18:51] <loadid_czech> mackwerk_: iptables?
[18:51] <loadid_czech> maybe host file?
[18:51] <eer> How can I find out what graphics card is really in there? http://pastebin.com/qw18r0Ur
[18:52] <KI7MT> sudo lshw -C display
[18:52] <loadid_czech> G73 [GeForce 7600 GT] is your graphics card
[18:52] <mackwerk_> I'll check out iptables, thanks :)
[18:52] <bekks> eer: MSI does not manufacture graphics cards. You have an Nvidia Geforce.
[18:53] <eer> loadid_czech, i tried to google it but the pictures looked different. mine is passivlely cooled
[18:53] <KI7MT> and lspci | grep "VGA" for GPU MFG info
[18:54] <Pici> bekks: actually they, do, they just don't create the chipsets
[18:54] <KI7MT> MSI is a a packager, not MFG of the GPU chips.
[18:54] <bekks> Pici: They manufacture licensed models from Nvidia, yeah.
[18:55] <BluesKaj> there are several nvidia gpu mfg's
[18:55] <KI7MT> Nvidia, VIA, ATI(AMD) etc are GPU MFG's
[18:55] <KI7MT> Then the Pakager list can go on all day :-)
[18:55] <quantumpants> bekkshttp://imagebin.org/271380
[18:56] <BluesKaj> graphics card mfg's rather
[18:56] <quantumpants> bekks, http://imagebin.org/271380
[18:56] <dougbb> eer, I have a geforce that is passively cooled in my desktop
[18:56] <mackwerk_> loadid_czech: Do you know off the top of your head how to proxy all traffic to localhost:8080 with iptables? I haven't been able to find anything doing exactly that
[18:57] <Pici> quantumpants: What does apt-cache policy g++ say?
[18:57] <dougbb> eer: it's an OEM card with an nvidia gpu, that may be what you have
[18:58] <quantumpants> Pici, where would i find that? sorry im a newb
[18:58] <KI7MT> mackwerk, http://serverfault.com/questions/509167/force-clients-to-use-proxy
[18:58] <Pici> quantumpants: open a terminal and type that
[18:59] <quantumpants> yup, just thought of that lol
[18:59] <mojtaba> Hi, Do you know how can I backup my windows system via network with my ubuntu system? I want to make a backup server. should I format the data hard drive NTFS? If so, will I need to defragment it later?
[19:00] <ikonia_> mojtaba: format it to a format that the backup tool can read and write
[19:01] <mojtaba> ikonia_: Do you know what should I do?
[19:01] <ikonia_> mojtaba: exactly what I've just said
[19:02] <quantumpants> Pici, http://imagebin.org/271382
[19:02] <dougbb> ikonia, that's not a very helpful response ... if you're not interested in actually helping people, maybe you should not say anything at all
[19:02] <ikonia_> dougbb: how is that not helpful ?
[19:02] <dougbb> mojtaba: do you have a specific backup system in mind, or are you starting completely from scratch?
[19:02] <Guest92740> Is possible to install unity in ubuntu 12.10 remix? How can i do?
[19:03] <mojtaba> dougbb: I am starting from scratch
[19:03] <polter> Guest92740: as long as it's using the Ubuntu repositories it should be totally possible
[19:03] <Pici> quantumpants: The repository mirror you are using is out of date, pick a different one.
[19:04] <quantumpants> Pici, I would if i knew how, hold on while i read up on it
[19:04] <dougbb> mojtaba: Ok, what kind of backups do you want? Do you want to simply keep a live copy of the existing files, or do you want to take periodic snapshots of the files so that you can go back and get older versions of the documents/
[19:04] <wilee-nilee> Guest92740, If you want the remix you will have to download the iso and install, it is just the gnome-shell by itself, which is installable in a unity setuo, you just have unity still.
[19:05] <dougbb> mojtaba: also, how much data are we talking about?
[19:05] <KI7MT> Ig you have Rmix already, just add ubuntu-desktop then you have both, Gnome and Untiy
[19:06] <polter> Guest92740: to install Unity you could either use the software center, another graphical package manager, och do " sudo apt-get install unity" in a terminal window
[19:06] <mojtaba> dougbb: I would like to simply keep a live copy or maybe scheduled copy of the data. I have 3 machines running windows servers and the data is about > 2TB
[19:06] <bekks> mojtaba: Setup a bacula server.
[19:07] <wilee-nilee> heh I read that backwards, doh
[19:07] <bekks> mojtaba: Its not that "Gimme ten minutes" thing - instead, you will take a few days until you have it up and running.
[19:07] <wilee-nilee> polter, It would be the ubuntu desktop is al
[19:08] <bekks> mojtaba: And depending on your needs, opensource source software will not suffice.
[19:08] <mojtaba> bekks: Why? Do you have an example in mind?
[19:08] <dougbb> mojtaba, bekks: yeah, bacula is probably the right solution for a project that size, and bekks is right about the learning curve, but that's going to be true no matter what system you choose
[19:09] <bekks> mojtaba: AD backups, backups of running MSSQL databases, etc.
[19:10] <mojtaba> bekks: I see, then bacula is the best one?
[19:10] <eer> I have this video card but how can I find out what the max screen resolution is for it? MSI NX7600GT-VT2D256E Geforce 7600GT
[19:10] <KI7MT> Bacula, Amanda, Enterprise Linux, all good / robust solutions, but as bekks said, takes time to implement them.
[19:11] <bekks> mojtaba: Depends on your needs. Bacula is the most sophisticated linux backup  software thats opensource.
[19:11] <bekks> KI7MT: Commercial solutions would be Symantec NetBackup, Symantec BackupExed.
[19:11] <bekks> -d+c
[19:11] <Pici> *exec
[19:11] <KI7MT> Yeah, loads of commercial stuff available.
[19:12] <dougbb> eer: what happens when you google for that model number? Do you find a spec sheet?
[19:12] <mojtaba> dougbb, bekss: Thank you very much. I will take a look.
[19:12] <dougbb> mojtaba: glad to help, good luck :)
[19:12] <KI7MT> Then, there is rzync + Cygwin :-) that works too LOL
[19:12] <bekks> eer: You still have Nvidia Geforce 7400GT.
[19:13] <quantumpants> Pici, Ive had a go in the terminal but seem to have failed
[19:13] <bekks> KI7MT: There are "native" rsync solutions for Windows.
[19:13] <dougbb> Yeah, I looked at deltacopy for a while, seemed decent
[19:14] <dougbb> in the end I went back to just using rsync while I was booted in linux
[19:14] <Nickeeh> AHOY ME MATEYS. I be looking for a treasure application that will round up all me logfiles into one nice view so I don't have to open them all.
[19:14] <bekks> dougbb: Deltacopy is aone of the worst solutions ;) Better use robocopy and one of the zillions of GUIs, like YARCGUI.
[19:14] <Nickeeh> (when something just crashed)
[19:15] <kriskropd> does anyone here know how to append arguments for mplayer insdie ranger file manager's apps.py?
[19:15] <dougbb> bekks: you're probably right, my best solution so far has been to avoid the problem :)
[19:15] <dougbb> Nickeeh: are your options limited to open source? If not, splunk is generally considered the best tool for that job
[19:15] <kriskropd> inside* I tried using this to no avail      return self.either(c, 'mplayer -ass -vf screenshot -osdlevel 3 -capture')
[19:16] <Guest92740> I alwayse use apt-get upgrade to upgrade my packages. Shoud i use apt-get dist-upgrade also?
[19:17] <Nickeeh> dougbb: what? that's a bit of overkill.. just want to sum up /var/log. ;D
[19:17] <wilee-nilee> Guest92740, For kernel upgrades yes.
[19:17] <Pici> quantumpants: The gui is usually an easier method of changing your repositories, It should be a menu option in the software center for it.
[19:17] <bekks> Nickeeh: Then use grep and awk :)
[19:18] <dougbb> Nickeeh: .... yeah, what bekks said ... if it's just one system I don't see your problem
[19:18] <eer> Is there a way to find out under KDE what the max screen resolution is of my graphics card?
[19:18] <quantumpants> thanks pici
[19:18] <Pici> quantumpants: I don't use the gui all that often so I'm not sure exactly where it is.
[19:18] <wilee-nilee> Guest92740, I use it everytime but thats just me, you want to be careful not to do partial upgrades is all.
[19:18] <KI7MT> bekks, yeah, I've seen a few in passing, not Windows guru so I don't keep up on Win stuff.
[19:19] <Kaylors> Need an image that installs offline. Not one that requires download of extra files during installation. Older versions are fine.
[19:19] <quantumpants> does anybody know where the gui is that will help me change my Mirror?
[19:19] <bekks> Kaylors: Use the regular install cd.
[19:20] <wilee-nilee> quantumpants, software-properties-gtk  open the gui
[19:20] <wilee-nilee> opens*
[19:20] <KI7MT> quantumpants, it's in the Update Mannager: Dash >>  Update Manager >> Ubuntu Software >> Download From
[19:20] <Kaylors> Havent got one. I'll download an image. I used Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but got a 700 MB image and the rest was downloaded. Now my friend wont have net on his PC so he needs one complete image.
[19:21] <KI7MT> If you select "Other" you can get it to check the fastest mirrors
[19:22] <Kaylors> Anyone?
[19:23] <KI7MT> Kaylors,  http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/
[19:23] <wilee-nilee> Kaylors, You can download any release you want, whats the issue.
[19:23] <eer> mumixam, but it says: "High-quality scaling technology delivers a clear, clean image at any window size, including full-screen HDTV resolutions up to 1080p." That would be only 1920 x 1080
[19:24] <FiremanEd> quantupants: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors  will tell you which are up-to-date
[19:24] <fahadash> Is there any software on ubuntu to fix problem with external hard drives ?
[19:24] <bekks> fahadash: Which problem?
[19:24] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, problem being?
[19:24] <quantumpants> just updating from a local server
[19:24] <fahadash> Its actually a sata drive which was once windows machines drive but now inside an enclosure.... I insert it into windows 7 machine and it says "Disk is not formatted, do you want to format it now?"
[19:25] <quantumpants> all of a sudden 82 updates apear :)
[19:25] <quantumpants> I love you guys :)
[19:25] <fahadash> I don't want to format, i would lose data. I tried this one "free" program which took 3 hours to show me list of files it recovered, but in order to save those files it asked me for $80
[19:25] <fahadash> The drive is NTFS
[19:25] <Pici> quantumpants: After you install those you should be able to get build-essential installed
[19:25] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, You sure the enclosure is good I bought one brand new a cheap one that did not work very well. Is there partitions on it?
[19:25] <KI7MT> Kaylors, My bad.. those are cloud images :-) http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/
[19:26] <fahadash> wilee-nilee: Yes there are partitions
[19:26] <fahadash> Only one of them is unreadable which is NTFS
[19:26] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, Could be a bad enclosure, might need a chkdsk...etc
[19:26] <wilee-nilee> might be a bad drive
[19:26] <fahadash> windows chkdsk wont read it
[19:26] <Kaylors> KI7MT: Thanks, bro..cheers.
[19:27] <loa> hello, how i can change icon for application launcher on unity dock?
[19:27] <fahadash> Its a $10 sata enclosure I got from walmart
[19:27] <geirha> Kaylors: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads -> Other images -> Choose a mirror near you, download the *-dvd-*.iso
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, could be any number of variables, knock them out.
[19:27] <fahadash> So ubuntu does not have any data-recovery tool ?
[19:27] <quantumpants> all of a sudden 82 updates apear :)
[19:27] <quantumpants> Thanks Pici
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, I would suspect the enclosure, 10$ from kmart
[19:28] <fahadash> walmart
[19:28] <wilee-nilee> same thing
[19:28] <wilee-nilee> cheap
[19:28] <fortunecookie> kmart = walmart?
[19:28] <splorc> there's ddrescue, don't know how well it works
[19:28] <fahadash> I am getting a NAS enclosure soon, may be if I stick the drive in there it would be able to read it
[19:29] <wilee-nilee> fortunecookie, minor difference, think about it.
[19:30] <KI7MT> fahadash, a couple data recovery tools, if needed , SafeCopy, ddrescue
[19:30] <splorc> https://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html has some examples of how to use it
[19:30] <wilee-nilee> gotta be able to actually read the HD first
[19:31] <fahadash> wilee-nilee: There is one called Virtual Lab, it did "scan" and read all the files; but in order to save them to my backup drive; it asked for $$$
[19:32] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, I would be careful here in assuming it needs a recovery with just that cheap enclosure as part of the picture
[19:32] <KI7MT> TestDisk is a good Disk analysis tool also
[19:32] <splorc> fahadash: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[19:32] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, Did it actuallt fail?
[19:32] <fahadash> Do you think it would go very well in my new NAS Media Server that I am getting ?
[19:32] <wilee-nilee> actually*
[19:32] <fahadash> thanks splorc
[19:33] <fahadash> Windows is seeing the partition but it wont read it and ask me to format it
[19:33] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, how about ubuntu seeing it?
[19:34] <fahadash> Never tried it
[19:34] <wilee-nilee> fahadash, YOu opened the disk manager and see the partition?
[19:34] <fahadash> let me stick it into ubuntu box and see what happens
[19:35] <KI7MT> formost ddrescue and ubuntu-recovery would be good to use / test within in UB machine.
[19:36] <KI7MT> whoops foremost
[19:38] <fahadash> Disk Utility detects that partition as "Unknown" 314 GB
[19:38] <fahadash> Other extended partitions are detected fine
[19:38] <KI7MT> are the other partitions NTFS also?
[19:38] <splorc> follow the help page i linked to use ddrescue and such then
[19:38] <quantumpants> thanks pici, your awesome :)
[19:39] <fahadash> ok thanks
[19:39] <fahadash> Other partitions are FAT32 and FAT16
[19:39] <Goatman> I’m trying to mount an hfsplus image with read and write under 13.04, but the error is ‘‘File system seems to be mounted read-only’’
[19:40] <splorc> fahadash: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery#Imaging_a_damaged_device.2C_filesystem_or_drive and follow instructions
[19:40] <KI7MT> Indeed, it's gonna be a long day for someone :-)
[19:42] <Goatman> Can you mount a dd image with a fat filesystem on it?
[19:44] <francisco_> hi
[19:44] <francisco_> i can't fix my wlan
[19:44] <francisco_> I have installed the b43 driver
[19:44] <francisco_> but it doesn't run
[19:45] <bekks> details | francisco_
[19:46] <francisco_> it is a pci wlan card
[19:46] <BiscuitWhisker> howdy!
[19:46] <francisco_> broadcom 4318
[19:47] <splorc> go to the store and buy a cheap taiwanese usb dongle, with a compatible with linux item on back of box, easier
[19:47] <bekks> francisco_: Please follow that !details guideline. Tell us the requested details.
[19:48] <splorc> bekks: you forgot the !
[19:50] <aristoi_> yo
[19:50] <aristoi_> g
[19:51] <fortunecookie> is there a channel for ubuntu touch phones?
[19:51] <WarDekar> how can i turn off password SSH completely
[19:51] <k1l> fortunecookie: didnt you ask that before? its #ubuntu-touch
[19:51] <bekks> WarDekar: By using SSH keys.
[19:52] <WarDekar> bekks: i have it setup for keys i'm saying i don't want to allow pw authentication on the server side
[19:52] <bekks> WarDekar: Then use SSH keys, and disable passwd auth.
[19:52] <WarDekar> that's what i'm asking, how to disable passwd auth
[19:52] <bekks> WarDekar: And enable kay auth
[19:52] <sanman> hello, I'm trying to debug and issue I'm having with an apache module and need to get debug symbols for a library called liblasso, but they don't seem to be in the repos, does anyone know if there are alternate repos that have debug symbols?
[19:53] <sneezewort> Is there anything wrong with appending ipv4 entries below the ipv6 entries in /etc/hosts?
[19:54] <bekks> WarDekar: After successfully testing key auth, change "PasswordAuthentication yes" to no in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[19:54] <bekks> sneezewort: No.
[19:54] <sneezewort> bekks, thanks.
[19:54] <bariho> hi there. I just installed xubuntu 12.04.3 to an usb hard drive. now when I try to boot it, I see some grub text for the fraction of a second and then the computer reboots. now what do I do?
[19:55] <wilee-nilee> bariho, Do you see the grub menu?
[19:56] <bariho> wilee-nilee: no, just some text, a few words, grub is one of them. I can't read it, it's gone to fast.
[19:56] <wilee-nilee> hold down shift if this is the only os on the HD when powering on bariho
[19:57] <wilee-nilee> bariho, Any linux on the computer, a grub menu there?
[19:58] <francisco_> Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[19:58] <francisco_> but I have installed its driver (b43)
[19:59] <bekks> francisco_: Please provide full details.
[19:59] <bejker> hi. some one know kow to lunch ts3 client as root? when i try as root ./ts3client_linux_x86 i got response ts3client_linux_x86: cannot connect to X server :0
[20:00] <bariho> wilee-nilee: holding shift didn't help. no, no other linux installation on that computer. I can plug the drive in my other computer (with linux) though.
[20:00] <francisco_> how can i provide you full details???
[20:00] <KI7MT> sanman, you could try the ubuntu lasso src: http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/precise/lasso along wiht info from their homepage: http://lasso.entrouvert.org/
[20:01] <wilee-nilee> bariho, If you have a grub using install on the other plug it in ands run sudo update-grub there to add it to its grub menu and see if it boots, if not I would just reinstall it, and make sure grub goes to the external mbr.
[20:02] <lmat> How do I get cvsps v3 using ubuntu ?
[20:02] <wilee-nilee> bariho, If it gets booted from another grub menu you can install grub to its mbr from its desktop
[20:02] <sanman> KI7MT, that's what I'm doing now
[20:02] <sanman> KI7MT, I'm just rebuilding the package with debug symbols
[20:03] <KI7MT> sanman, Im not finding allot of debug info, I guess -g and gdb is best bet.
[20:03] <francisco_> Se puede hablar en españo???
[20:03] <Akiva-Thinkpad> I want to use ubuntu as a server for doing local windows installations over a network. Did I say that right? Where is a good tutorial?
[20:04] <Rory> lmat: It looks like you can only get it from the author's webpage http://www.cobite.com/cvsps/
[20:04] <bariho> wilee-nilee: ok, i'll try with the other computer later, can'T reboot that one right now. and I did make sure grub goes to the external drive's mbr. there wouldn't be any grub text otherwise, right? the drive was empty.
[20:04] <lmat> Rory: Thanks.
[20:04] <wilee-nilee> bariho, With a stanard install you should see a grub menu, a external will run really slow anyway.
[20:05] <chaotic_good> ok what do I apt get to get java 7?
[20:05] <Rory> lmat: Version 3 doesn't exist though
[20:05] <chaotic_good> riddle me hat
[20:05] <chaotic_good> er that
[20:05] <Rory> What Ubuntu version, chaotic_good ?
[20:05] <chaotic_good> 1204lts
[20:05] <smw94> chaotic_good, download open-jdk
[20:05] <Rory> !info openjdk-7-jre precise
[20:05] <wilee-nilee> bariho, Have you checked the sum of the iso you loaded to install?
[20:05] <chaotic_good> oow
[20:05] <tasslehoff> Any idea how I can set a shell script as the default application for opening a certain file type?
[20:06] <Rory> !java > chaotic_good
[20:06] <chaotic_good> do they have oracle jdk? I think work might need that
[20:06] <KI7MT> depends on if you want the JDK or just runtime
[20:06] <chaotic_good> thats a good question
[20:06] <francisco_> i'm gonna get mad
[20:07] <KI7MT> for runtim is sudo apt-get purge openjdk* but JDK apears to be a bit more
[20:07] <bekks> francisco_: Then tell us what the real problem is, we cant guess it.
[20:07] <bekks> !details | francisco_
[20:07] <KI7MT> thentar -xvf ~/Downloads/jre-7u3-linux-i586.tar.gz and go from there
[20:07] <Rory> chaotic_good: Why do you need java? Are you programming in Java or just need to run Java applications?
[20:07] <ggherdov> hello. when you do a release upgrade and configuration files are replaced bcse the syntaz changed or whatever, where are the old config files stored ? I remember there was a place ...
[20:07] <KI7MT> or whatever platform your using <i686, x86_64 etc>
[20:08] <chaotic_good> mongodb at work
[20:08] <ggherdov> syntax*
[20:08] <chaotic_good> whats the switch to dpkg to search for java pakcages?
[20:08] <francisco_> I'm trying 12.04 Lts Xubunu
[20:08] <francisco_> Xubuntu
[20:08] <chaotic_good> gaa mna has dpkg-query?
[20:08] <Rory> chaotic_good: You just need the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) then.
[20:08] <Rory> apt-cache search java
[20:08] <francisco_> and I have this wlan pci Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[20:08] <bariho> wilee-nilee: I checked it now, it's correct.
[20:09] <francisco_> so i found up that my driver is B43
[20:09] <JHOSMAN> Someone knows some framework for HTML5 presentations Ubuntu?
[20:09] <francisco_> I have installed it through the ubuntu software center
[20:09] <chaotic_good> default-jdk - Standard Java or Java compatible Development Kit  is this the Oracle java?
[20:10] <KI7MT> chaotic_good, "fairly simple" RTE for JRE-7: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/04/install-oracle-java-runtime-jre-7-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/
[20:10] <Rory> chaotic_good: No, the Oracle Java can't be distributed through Ubuntu repositories for legal reasons
[20:10] <KI7MT> Not sure how up to date the version are.
[20:10] <wilee-nilee> bariho, All we can do is assume you followed a good path here and that the external will work, and maybe just needs another try, or you could boot a live cd and run the bootrepair, just the bootinfo summary to generate the boot script to look at.
[20:10] <francisco_> but when i restart my laptop it doesnt work
[20:10] <Rory> WebUpd8 has a PPA which is generally well trusted: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[20:10] <chaotic_good> curse oracle 10,000 times
[20:10] <lmat> Rory: oh.
[20:10] <Rory> francisco_: Can you open a terminal and run the command: sudo apt-get --reinstall install bcmwl-kernel-source
[20:11] <wilee-nilee> bariho, This ia the bootrepair app be careful here, I would start with the bootinfo summary only. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[20:12] <hellyeah> hey
[20:12] <Rory> Hello hellyeah
[20:12] <hellyeah> i am not sure my os use nvidia driver how can i check
[20:13] <KI7MT> chaotic_good, UBuntu info on JRE Install: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[20:13] <bekks> hellyeah: "lsmod | grep nvidia"
[20:13] <francisco_> Rory I followed your advice
[20:13] <lmat> Rory: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213170  suggests that there was a v3 in January.
[20:13] <francisco_> install complete
[20:13] <francisco_> d
[20:14] <hellyeah> bekks:  i got nothing that means there is no driver? It is just free nvidia driver or vesa driver
[20:14] <francisco_> and then, Rory?
[20:14] <Rory> francisco_: Now run the command: sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl brcmfmac brcmsmac bcma
[20:14] <Ari-Yang> hellyeah, what ubuntu version are you using?
[20:14] <Rory> francisco_: And then run the command: sudo modprobe wl
[20:14] <hellyeah> 13.04,
[20:15] <Ari-Yang> hellyeah, are you using Unity perhaps?
[20:15] <hellyeah> yeah
[20:15] <hellyeah> i am using unity it seems
[20:15] <Ari-Yang> hellome, in dash board, type software sources and go to 'Additional Drivers' tab
[20:15] <Ari-Yang> from there you can select what driver you can use, hellyeah
[20:15] <bekks> hellyeah: freen nvidia driver would be "lsmod|grep nouveau"
[20:15] <Rory> francisco_: Allow several seconds for the network manager to scan for available networks before attempting a connection.
[20:16] <hellyeah> Ari-Yang:  hw can i select can you tell me
[20:16] <hellyeah> i am not sure nvidia package was installed
[20:16] <Ari-Yang> hellyeah, I g2g, I'm sure you can figure out how to select a driver from a list ._______.
[20:17] <hellyeah> when i use 11.04 or previous version everytime system asked me about installing nvidia properity driver
[20:17] <bekks> hellyeah: I guess it wasnt.
[20:17] <hellyeah> now it didnt ask
[20:17] <francisco_> Rory, Those commands doesnt work, when i eject them, console is freezen
[20:17] <Rory> francisco_: Did the first one work? Which one made it freeze?
[20:18] <francisco_> both
[20:18] <hellyeah> y
[20:18] <francisco_> the first didnt work
[20:18] <Rory> francisco_: They both made it freeze? You ran the first one and it froze? So how did you run the second one?
[20:18] <Rory> francisco_: It is OK you can reboot and it should work
[20:18] <francisco_> yes
[20:19] <Rory> francisco_: Those commands were just so you don't have to reboot. But you can reboot instead
[20:19] <francisco_> and the second froze two
[20:19] <francisco_> too
[20:19] <francisco_> ok
[20:19] <Rory> Before you reboot
[20:19] <Rory> Can you run sudo apt-get update
[20:19] <francisco_> ok
[20:19] <Rory> and then sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:19] <francisco_> Rory
[20:33] <Rory> Has there been some kind of horrible netsplit or something, or has nobody said anything at all for 13 minutes?
[20:33] <DJones> Looks about right, whats the saying, silence is golden :)
[20:35] <smw94> can i change font color in gnome fallback panel ? gnome 3.8.2 version
[20:36] <everald> I'm trying to set up a samba share on my buddy's compuer that will allow me to access a particular folder, and use a paricular user which has a group shared with his user, so that with sticky bit set we can both write to the shred directory.
[20:37] <grnt> Would anyone of you use Ubuntu (or any other Linux distribution) if it cost money?
[20:37] <everald> Somehow smbd does not respect "guest account = myuser".
[20:38] <everald> Anyone knows how to do something like this?
[20:39] <Rory> !ot | grnt It's a good discussion to have in here
[20:39] <Rory> smw94: I found some information here which suggests you can edit some css, although it doesn't mention font colour specifically http://askubuntu.com/questions/69576/how-to-customize-the-gnome-classic-panel
[20:41] <smw94> Rory: thx, i've read it before
[20:42] <boneslash> got to go guys GOOD NIGHT :)
[20:42] <boneslash> hope you will get out of your problems soon guys :))
[20:44] <xan_IT> hi to all, i need help for a pc
[20:46] <xan_IT> this notebook has cpu core i7 and a AMD radeon. actually i dont use proprietary driver and the problem is that when i see fullhd avi there is some lags
[20:46] <xan_IT> 2 question: 1 how i can see which card are in use?
[20:46] <jhutchins> xan_IT: Streamed or local?
[20:46] <xan_IT> local
[20:46] <jhutchins> xan_IT: RAM?
[20:47] <xan_IT> 8gb
[20:47] <jhutchins> What player?
[20:47] <xan_IT> totem
[20:47] <xan_IT> ubuntu 32 bit
[20:47] <RonaldJ> Is it possible to remove nmbd?? It's running on 100%cpu
[20:47] <jhutchins> Try mplayer or vlc, consider installing AMD64
[20:47] <xan_IT> i dont know which card are used
[20:48] <jhutchins> RonaldJ: What does nmbd do?
[20:48] <xan_IT> there is a way to see wich video card are used actually?
[20:48] <jhutchins> RonaldJ: Do you know?
[20:49] <jhutchins> xan_IT: There might be a better way like xrand or video properties in your GUI, but you should be able to figure it out from /var/log/Xorg.0.log (it will give you a headache).
[20:49] <nicxvan> If I want a folder to be created in a users home directory automatically, what should I be googling to figure that out? I have had no luck figuring out the search terms
[20:49]  * jhutchins pokes RonaldJ

[20:51] <Ari-Yang> xan_IT, type this in terminal and pastebin the output lspci | grep VGA
[20:51] <jhutchins> xan_IT: No, you would have to post it to a pastebin, and YOU should be the one reading it to figure out what it's doing.
[20:51] <nicxvan> jhutchins: thanks

[20:52] <everald> What's the best way to have a local network shared folder on a Ubuntu machine?
[20:55] <jhutchins> RonaldJ: So likely some windows-like box on your network is storming the server.  You might be able to take nmbd down and still work with DNS resolution.  Shut it down and see what breaks - that's where the real culprit is.
[20:58] <xan_IT> second problem: if i try to install propetary video driver, when i boot i see the background but i can login because i can see the object to login, i see only background
[21:00] <jhutchins> xan_IT: https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee http://xpressrazor.wordpress.com/2013/01/13/how-to-setup-amdintel-hybrid-graphics-cards-in-linux-ubuntu/ (ubuntu disclaimer) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hybrid_graphics (Arch disclaimer, but a good overview).
[21:02] <xan_IT> i dont wont the swith o other just use best video card, always
[21:04] <jhutchins> xan_IT: The idea is that the intel GPU uses less power, so when you don't need full 3D acceleration use it, but if you want to do gaming or 3D mapping or something use the AMD, which takes more power.
[21:04] <Kalel> Greetings.. Id like to know if Uubntu has any bug about youtube playing videos. I can not watch anything.
[21:04] <jhutchins> xan_IT: The reason they did this is because what's "best" changes depending on what you're doing.
[21:05] <loadid_czech> Kalel: you need to install the flash plugin
[21:05] <RonaldJ> jhutchins thanks
[21:05] <jhutchins> xan_IT: So far it doesn't work terribly well in Linux (and I hear it has problems in Windows as well).
[21:05] <jhutchins> RonaldJ: You can look at tcpdump and maybe see what IP is causing all the traffic.
[21:06] <Kalel> Its already installed the leatest one, loadid_czech .  If so..
[21:06] <jhutchins> We had a site where they finally found that a router at the Golf stand had been rained on and was causing the network storm.
[21:06] <xan_IT> jhutchins yes. i know that the switch is not very well, i just wont to use amd grafic with propetary driver always (pc are always chargin, there is no problem for battery)
[21:06] <jhutchins> The guy was really happy he'd figured out what the problem was.  He plugged it back in and went home to celebrate!
[21:06] <Pessimist> Hello everyone. When I boot up it doesn't _automatically_ find the ubuntu bootloader so I have to go to boot options and pick "ubuntu" there. I am using UEFI with no secure boot. How do you fix this?
[21:07]  * loadid_czech is not slovakian
[21:07] <Rory> Pessimist: You have to set the default boot option in the UEFI menu
[21:07] <jhutchins> Pessimist: grub?
[21:07] <loadid_czech> have you restarted your browser Kalel?
[21:07] <loadid_czech> and perhaps tried in a different browser?
[21:07] <Adie> :/
[21:07] <Adie> HELLO?
[21:07] <jhutchins> xan_IT: Whether you want to swap GPUs or not, the answer to how to use a specific one is in those docs.
[21:08] <Adie> Can you hear me?
[21:08] <Pessimist> jhutchins, yes; Rory, It says that no bootable media has been found and that my netbook will turn off. Btw, my model is hp 4540s
[21:08]  * loadid_czech hollars
[21:08] <jhutchins> Adie: Nope.  Just text on the screen, no sound.
[21:08] <cowbacon> Adie: i can not hear you
[21:08] <Adie> Cool
[21:08] <Adie> just, it was saying "can not send to channel" before
[21:08] <Pessimist> hmz, I'll try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[21:08] <cowbacon> because you weren't authed probably
[21:08] <Adie> anyways, what do I do to make my wifi work if my wifi.. doesn't work?
[21:09] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Yes. Firefox an Chrome. Both unable to load the videos.. I want to reinstall it otherwise and see what happen..
[21:09] <cowbacon> !wifi | Adie
[21:09] <Adie> :<
[21:09] <jhutchins> Pessimist: You should be able to set the default boot entry for grub in /etc/defaults/grub (run update-grub after changes).
[21:09] <loadid_czech> it's not a bug Kalel, something is configured improperly
[21:09] <Pessimist> jhutchins, my bios doesn't find the boot loader automatically
[21:09] <loadid_czech> where are you? are you behind a firewall that would block youtube content?
[21:10] <jhutchins> Kalel: Do you have flashplayer installed?
[21:10] <Kalel> loadid_czech: I think so.. I will see it again. Thank you.
[21:10] <Kalel> jhutchins: Flashplayer?
[21:10] <Kalel> jhutchins: Yes!
[21:10] <wilee-nilee> Pessimist, this a uefi computer?
[21:10] <Kalel> I am going to to the reinstallation.
[21:11] <Pessimist> wilee-nilee, yes
[21:11] <Kalel> to do..
[21:11] <loadid_czech> kalel, reinstallation of what?
[21:11] <Pessimist> wilee-nilee, default installation, didn't change anything. Previously had archlinux with gummiboot which still has it's boot entry
[21:11] <wilee-nilee> Pessimist, you dual booting or wiped windows?
[21:11] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Flash
[21:11] <Pessimist> wilee-nilee, pure ubuntu
[21:12] <Adie> :<
[21:12] <Adie> my wifi is too new and amazing for ubuntu
[21:12] <mechabit> Greetings
[21:12] <loadid_czech> Kalel: apt-get install flashplugin-downloader
[21:12] <Adie> 2 bad
[21:12] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Actually I have to restart my laptop right now. I'am resolving another problem with my ati driver..
[21:12] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Ok.
[21:13] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Isn't flashplugin-installer ?
[21:13] <wilee-nilee> Pessimist, we have seen some just wipe the hd ie the mbr and make a msdos table and set the bios as legacy and do installs.
[21:13] <loadid_czech> yes Kalel
[21:14] <Kalel> loadid_czech: Ok. Thank you. I have to restart now. Bye bye fellas.
[21:15] <mechabit> I believe I found old instructions on how to create wine prefixes. "wineprefixcreate --prefix ~/.prefix2" gives an error that it doesn't recognize "wineprefixcreate".
[21:25] <skinux> Is /usr/src usually containing kernel source directories?
[21:29] <loadid_czech> yes skinux, i think so
[21:29] <skinux> Good, because it has a few.
[21:31] <energizer1> My 13.04 freezes sometimes when I visit Google Maps. Help?
[21:33] <Rory> energizer1: What browser are you using?
[21:33] <energizer1> chromium
[21:33] <Rory> energizer1: Does it happen in Firefox also?
[21:33] <energizer1> lets find out
[21:35] <energizer1> didnt freeze in firefox this time, but the problem is inconsistent in chromium anyway, so that's not a totally clear finding
[21:36] <rgreen_> hi i have a macbook pro that i have running ubuntu but i would like to switch it to run fedora 18, the problem is i cant seem to get the macbook to allow me to boot from the fedora install cd that i burned, is there another way to overwrite the ubuntu partition while fedora cd is mounted?
[21:37] <gordonjcp> rgreen_: not really, but ask in #fedora about booting on UEFI hardware
[21:37] <rgreen_> ok thanks
[21:37] <wilee-nilee> rgreen fedora has a channel
[21:37] <gordonjcp> rgreen_: you should be able to install it the same way you installed Ubuntu
[21:38] <rgreen_> i know, for some reason i cant boot from cd anymore
[21:38] <gordonjcp> rgreen_: oh, forget booting from CD
[21:38] <gordonjcp> no-one does that any more
[21:38] <gordonjcp> can you even buy CDs?
[21:38] <rgreen_> usb?
[21:38] <gordonjcp> I haven't seen them for years
[21:38] <rgreen_> lol
[21:39] <rgreen_> i should make a bootable usb drive instead?
[21:40] <energizer3> Ok i tried again -- crashed in firefox too
[21:40] <energizer3> Anytime i scroll around very-zoomed in Google Maps (chromium or ff), ubuntu crashes
[21:42] <systemd0wn> I'm looking for a new Ubuntu compatible laptop. Does anyone know how accurate the certified hardware list is?
[21:42] <Therion87> Ubuntus site has one I blieve
[21:42] <Therion87> And System76 is an Ubuntu Laptop vendor
[21:43] <systemd0wn> Ya. I doubt I'll be purchasing a laptop with Ubuntu pre-loaded most of those are more expensive than I would like to pay.
[21:43] <Therion87> http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/
[21:43] <gordonjcp> systemd0wn: just buy a second-hand macbook ;-)
[21:43] <systemd0wn> I saw that. Does that mean all the hardware works 100%?
[21:43] <systemd0wn> gordonjcp: psh! macbook!
[21:44] <gordonjcp> systemd0wn: <shrug>
[21:44] <systemd0wn> haha
[21:44] <gordonjcp> systemd0wn: I have no complaints about mine
[21:44] <gordonjcp> systemd0wn: I needed to buy a new battery, that cost me nearly 40 quid
[21:44] <gordonjcp> buy cheap, buy twice
[21:44] <Ari-Yang> gordonjcp, https://www.system76.com/laptops/model/galu1
[21:44] <systemd0wn> Neither does my best friend but I won't do it :) I ditched my iPhone too.
[21:45] <gordonjcp> Ari-Yang: don't like 'em, they feel cheap and flimsy
[21:45] <Gye> I AM Moe
[21:46] <systemd0wn> I haven't had my hands on one.
[21:46] <Therion87> I have a Gazelle I lov eit
[21:46] <Gye> You are a badguy
[21:47] <Therion87> I've messed with the Galago at the OLF
[21:47] <Therion87> It's pretty sturdy
[21:47] <Gye> Therion87 is a dud
[21:47] <hellyeah> good night
[21:47] <Therion87> ?
[21:48] <Gye> ya you are
[21:49] <Therion87> Troll somewhere else bro
[21:49] <systemd0wn> I would just like to have a laptop where everything just works with Ubuntu. lol. I guess I should consider buying a pre-loaded laptop but they are more expensive.
[21:49] <Gye> NO!
[21:49] <Therion87> Lenovos have good support histroically
[21:49] <Therion87> Dell and HP both work well
[21:49] <Gye> I won`t troll somewhere else
[21:50] <Therion87> Just check hardware frist and stay away from Broadcom cards
[21:50] <Ari-Yang> !offtopic | Gye
[21:50] <Gye> ubottu is a bot!!!
[21:50] <Ari-Yang> systemd0wn, I recommend a laptop with nVidia... whatever laptop you get, just make sure that whatever card it has is compatible
[21:51] <systemd0wn> ya... My laptop that finally died had a lot of problems with the mainstream kernels. Lots of random lockups and crashes.
[21:51] <Therion87> You gotta be careful with laptops and nVdia
[21:51] <Therion87> Opitmus can be a pain
[21:52] <Gye> i dont care if you are sad or not ubottu you need to get hit with a pellet gun.
[21:52] <Therion87> And without it battery life is crapola
[21:52] <Ari-Yang> systemd0wn, I'm using kernel 3.11 and have no problem...
[21:53] <systemd0wn> Good to know.
[21:53] <systemd0wn> what are you guys running?
[21:53] <Therion87> 13.04 kernel 3.11.1
[21:53] <Therion87> With varies performance tweaks
[21:53] <Ari-Yang> OS: Linux 3.11.0-996-generic/x86_64 - Distro: Ubuntu 12.10
[21:54] <jhutchins> Linux for Workgroups!
[21:54] <Ari-Yang> systemd0wn, the reason why I'm using 3.11 is because of DPM (dynamic power management) for the radeon driver
[21:54] <Ari-Yang> laptop doesn't overheat anymore.
[21:55] <systemd0wn> right.
[21:56] <kriskropd> Does anyone here know how to add options and arguments to mplayer in apps.py for ranger file manager? I want to open files with 'mplayer -ass -vf screenshot -osdlevel 3 -capture'
[21:56] <Ari-Yang> kriskropd, ask in #mplayer
[21:57] <kriskropd> its acutally a questiona bout ranger, not mplayer, and I hav better chances here, so I'm just asking
[21:57] <kriskropd> actually* about*
[21:57] <Ari-Yang> kriskropd, isn't ranger file manager arch?
[21:58] <systemd0wn> has anyone had luck with the dell ubuntu laptops?
[21:58] <kriskropd> Ari-Yang: lol no, its in ubuntu repos
[21:59] <Gye> Goatman you aregooey
[21:59] <Ari-Yang> systemd0wn, this laptop I'm using is dell.... and personally I would advise not to get a dell laptop :s if you are, just make sure it's a GOOD dell laptop
[21:59] <ANN-TechCoder> Hello guys, Can anyone plese advise? Ubuntu (Unity) does not save Window sizes and position. Can't find anything in Google
[22:01] <systemd0wn> Ari-Yang: I've always had pretty good luck with them. Used them for work and personal... Just mixed result with ubuntu hardware compatibility I guess.
[22:01] <wilee-nilee> systemd0wn, We can try to help if you describe the problem, it is not a canonical release however.
[22:02] <systemd0wn> wilee-nilee: Heh? I'm just looking for a new laptop is all.
[22:02] <iceroot> where are the cronscripts from "crontab -e" stored? so the user-specific crons
[22:03] <wilee-nilee> systemd0wn, Ah, you asked the question earlier on certified right?
[22:03] <systemd0wn> ya
[22:06] <wilee-nilee> systemd0wn, I would focus on the hardware if you are worried, we rarely see someone here with a computer that does not work, I can't remember any.
[22:06] <darkkblack> ~~~ having trouble with password and keyboad when installing, help please! ~~~
[22:07] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, laptop or desktop?
[22:07] <systemd0wn> wilee-nilee: My Dell Studio 1569 has a lot of kernel issues. As reported..
[22:07] <wilee-nilee> systemd0wn, By who?
[22:07] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, ty for replying, laptop
[22:08] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, Keyboard not work at all, you have very little details here.
[22:08] <systemd0wn> wilee-nilee: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1011914
[22:09] <AcidRain2012> will someone tell me the ops name in #perl
[22:09] <seanz> Greetings. Is there an easy way to use tasksel to see if a task is enabled?
[22:10] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, keyboard will work(doesnt work at all on occasion)I can get through the install, up to the point of account creation. I can click one letter in the account name box and it spams 100 keystrokes and keyboard stops working
[22:11] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, its happened 3 times now, 2 times with direct install, and once running ubuntu live and creating account before trying to install
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, You have an external to plug in, does it do this in other apps in this environment, have you checked the iso'd sum
[22:12] <AcidRain2012> will someone tell me the ops name in #perl
[22:12] <mechabit> Is there an #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> mechabit, yes and that is the name of it
[22:13] <mechabit> wilee-nilee, just checking lol. Thanks.
[22:13] <wilee-nilee> ;)
[22:13] <mechabit> wilee-nilee, sometimes people ninja channels
[22:14] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, external to plug in? other apps seem to work fine only tried a couple with ubuntu live a few minutes ago, and the iso'd sum is okay I believe cause I am using this ubuntu install on 2nd laptop and all is working for me
[22:14] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, same iso burned usb drive for both installs*
[22:15] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, Have you checked askubuntu with this computer model or the web for similar problems.
[22:15] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, no this is the first place I started, am currently setting up registration for ubuntu forum though
[22:16] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, Good idea good place, I'm not sure what is going on myself, I would check the web first if I ran into this, not that here is bad.
[22:16] <fabio> If I have full-disk encryption enabled (done through the Xubuntu installer), can its passphrase be changed? [I haven't forgotten it; just curious]
[22:17] <darkkblack> wilee-nilee, really not sure how to word my problem for a google search, lol
[22:19] <wilee-nilee> darkkblack, simpler the better to start, model and ubuntu or the release # askubuntu same or just the model to start with.
[22:19] <wilee-nilee> maybe add keyboard
[22:21] <sixcorners> my ubuntu keeps crashing..
[22:22] <juki> with that much information i can narrow it down to one of two things sixcorners
[22:22] <systemd0wn> Does anyone have a laptop with a touch screen running ubuntu? Anyone know how well ubuntu handles that?
[22:24] <juki> systemd0wn: throw in a liveusb and try it out
[22:25] <sixcorners> I've given you 100% of the information it's given me.
[22:25] <systemd0wn> lol. I'm buying a new laptop. I don't currently have a touch screen.
[22:25] <wilee-nilee> systemd0wn, For the record this is support, not polling, for problems in reality.
[22:25] <juki> well sixcorners, then i would say it's either operator error or an OS issue
[22:27] <sixcorners> Is there a place I can start with the diagnosis?
[22:28] <SmartAss> hello, is there any puppy linux channel aroun
[22:28] <sixcorners> there is a #puppylinux channel
[22:29] <SmartAss> thank
[22:29] <juki> sixcorners: you could start by saying something like.  when i boot, it gets to the login screen and then the screen goes black
[22:29] <juki> or maybe, i see grub load, and when i select an option it gets stuck at the ubuntu splash screen
[22:29] <EMPHASIS_> what's a good weather app for show showing 1/2 dozen cities at same time?
[22:30] <sixcorners> I do various things. It crashes. It seems to crash at the start of one of those fancy animations.
[22:30] <juki> try disabeling desktop effects sixcorners
[22:35] <jkbbwr> Any idea what echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_reuse does
[22:35] <jkbbwr> and if it has any side effects?
[22:36] <juki> jk, it will write a 1 into the file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_reuse
[22:36] <upd> yes it does has effects
[22:36] <oriez> someone familiar with the launcher bar overlay on video fullscreen on dual screen?
[22:36] <oriez> some sort of a bug?
[22:37] <jkbbwr> upd: what kinid of side effects?
[22:37] <jkbbwr> upd: bad ones?
[22:38] <juki> to be one for symantics, it would be a side effect, it would be a direct effect
[22:38] <juki> would not* be a side effect
[22:38] <jkbbwr> okay what negitive effects could it have
[22:39] <juki> first jkbbwr, open a text editor and open the file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_reuse and see what's in there
[22:40] <sixcorners> check man 7 tcp for tcp_tw_reuse
[22:40] <upd> jkbbwr, depends what you want when tcp connection is closed there is some time to wait, but setting this will imediattely reuse the same socket so this can mess up tcp handshake
[22:41] <jkbbwr> well im kinda using up all my sockets...
[22:41] <upd> 65536 ?
[22:41] <juki> using up all your sockets?
[22:41] <jkbbwr> Yes
[22:42] <juki> i don't understand
[22:42] <upd> well i would try to decrease time_wait if there is an option
[22:43] <guest__> Hello!  I installed KDE4 in Ubuntu 12.04 and KDE4 is using its own login screen in Ubuntu 12.04.  How do I change back to the default login?
[22:44] <hdon> guys. 12.04 here. my gvfs_metadata process has been going for three days, keeping on of my CPU cores in iowait and writing to my disk constantly. it's not really a nuisance, but what is going on?
[22:44] <upd> jkbbwr, if you are using mysql you can set smaller time, so socket will be free faster, but be aware of packet loss
[22:44] <Obi1> can any1 see my posts ?
[22:44] <daftykins> what posts?
[22:44] <hdon> that was weird... i thought i saw someone named "Obi" but then i guess i imagined it
[22:45] <guest__> 0bi1 - what posts are you referring to?
[22:45] <juki> guest__: it's difficult to use the gnome login and kde... or are you saying you want to switch back to gnome and disregard kde?
 hello  Cannot send to channel: #ubuntu
[22:45] <guest__> juki - yes.
[22:45] <juki> guest__: do you have a file /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[22:46] <Bruce_> If "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:..." adds a repository, how do I remove it?
