[08:47] <belgianguy> fine, apologies for being so partisan

[08:48] <raesi> hi friends plz help me http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391171/
[08:52] <dcherniv> raesi, run ldconfig
[08:52] <dcherniv> raesi, if that doesnt help pastebin ldd `which kraft`
[08:52] <raesi> ok
[08:53] <zetheroo> trying to get a Java applet to work in FF ... I open FF from the terminal and then try to access the Java VPN tool ... and the output is http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391178/
[08:54] <zetheroo> basically the browser just freezes up at this point and I have to CTRL-C it
[08:54] <zetheroo> this feature of course works 100% in Windows ....
[08:55] <zetheroo> is there something better than OpenJDK in this case?
[08:55] <raesi> dcherniv, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391182/
[08:55] <Kartagis> I can watch videos on youtube and facebook, but I can't watch any other. what to check?
[08:57] <Jaclyn> zetheroo: did you make the applet yourself?
[08:57] <zetheroo> Kartagis: I had this same issue not too long ago ... it amounted to my Flash configuration ...
[08:57] <zetheroo> Jaclyn: no
[08:58] <Kartagis> zetheroo: has yours been fixed?
[08:58] <Jaclyn> But you say the exact same applet works in windows?
[08:58] <raesi> which kraft
[08:59] <zetheroo> Jaclyn: basically it is meant to allow me to access the domain controller which is behind the hardware firewall at the company I work at
[08:59] <Jaclyn> Because if I am remembering correctly, the detector class watches for buttons and whatnot
[08:59] <Jaclyn> zetheroo: but what I asked is does the exact same applet work in windows? because I know Java, but not a whole lot about linux
[09:00] <zetheroo> Jaclyn: yes, in Windows it works fine ... the applet is simply something which is somewhere on the remote side which is used to perform the remote session
[09:00] <raesi> hi friends plz help me http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391171/
[09:00] <xx4h> und re =)
[09:01] <zetheroo> Jaclyn: all I do is enter a link in  the browser and it takes me to the gateway where I login, then select the remote system I need to access and then another window opens and this is when I see this Java stuff coming up in the terminal
[09:02] <Jaclyn> zetheroo: because from it telling me that it cannot find the detector class, the only thing that I can think is someone's Java is messed up somewhere. I would try to update/reinstall Java on your end and see if that helps, otherwise, that's really where my experiance ends
[09:02] <zetheroo> so at the time of accessing a remote machine it seems it's being handled by Java ... and in the output there is a line referring to an applet not loading
[09:02] <Jaclyn> Well, the reason that the applet isn't loading is because it can't find the reasources that it needs to start. When was the last time you tried this in windows?
[09:03] <penguinman> raesi: did you uninstall pulseaudio?
[09:04] <Mit> Bonjour :) j'ai besoin d'un coup de main pour un pb de résolution d'écran avec ubuntu 12.04
[09:04] <zetheroo> Kartagis: yes, I eventually got it sorted ...

[09:05] <elena-IK> I want to store a backup of a local directory on a remote server. I want the data to be encrypted before the transfer to the server. I currently use rsync and encfs inside sshfs for this, this seems quite buggy however. any good alternatives?
[09:05] <Jaclyn> zetheroo: To be honest, I think something went wonky serverside. I would try updating Java, and if it is current, then reinstalling. And if it still doesn't work I would check it out in Windows again. If it works in windows, I dunno how else I can help you because I don't know linux very well, and if it doesn't work, then I was correct and you need to contact the server admin.
[09:05] <Kartagis> zetheroo: care to share with the rest of the classroom?
[09:05] <zetheroo> Kartagis: if I recall correctly is came down to having ore than one instance of Flash installed ...
[09:06] <genks> Hi, I need some help. I have to put on video output(vga) through projector some videos... and in real-time overlay them some static images... hints? I'm very newbie and I need an expert overview indicates me a right path to follow.
[09:06] <genks> (Sorry for my english)
[09:07] <Kartagis> zetheroo: I have flashplugin-installer installed
[09:07] <zetheroo>  Jaclyn: ok thanks
[09:07] <Kartagis> should I install adobe-flashplugin as well?
[09:07] <zetheroo> Kartagis: right, and in FF ... what do you have in Plugins?
[09:07] <penguinman> Kartagis: the installer should grab what you need for that
[09:08] <Kartagis> zetheroo: I'm using google-chrome
[09:08] <zetheroo> ok, let me check what I got installed ... and I'll check Chrome too
[09:08] <Jaclyn> zetheroo: Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but that's all I've got. You could probably save some time by just trying to boot it up with windows, because if it works in windows, then it is either a problem with ubuntu or your firefox.
[09:08] <penguinman> Kartagis: the actual binary chrome build has flash built in actually. so you don't need the plugin at all

[09:11] <zetheroo> Kartagis: as far as I recall Chrome comes with Flash pre-installed ...
[09:12] <Kartagis> zetheroo: but I can't watch videos except on youtube and facebook
[09:12] <zetheroo> Kartagis: and how is it in FF?
[09:12] <zetheroo> Kartagis: also how did you get that version on Flash in Chrome?
[09:12] <Kartagis> zetheroo: flash crashes
[09:13] <Kartagis> zetheroo: it was pre-installed in Chrome
[09:13] <somsip>  svn sw  https://subversion.assembla.com/svn/booklending/booklending/branches/iss-697
[09:13] <somsip> er...oops
[09:13] <zetheroo> Kartagis: can you select details of that plugin
[09:14] <zetheroo> Kartagis: which version of Ubuntu ?
[09:14] <Kartagis> 12.04
[09:14] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: Have you tried Oracle's Java 7?
[09:14] <zetheroo> Jordan_U: no ... I am afraid to mess Java up :P
[09:15] <xx4h> java--
[09:16] <zetheroo> Kartagis: I have 12.04 as well
[09:16] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: This guide is probably safe, and has instructions for going back to openJDK: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[09:16] <zetheroo> Kartagis: thing is that my Flash version is 11.2r202 in Chrome ...
[09:16] <zetheroo> Kartagis: and its not 2 files as yours is either
[09:16] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: Please file a bug report against OpenJDK though, and if it works in Oracle Java please mention that in your bug report.
[09:16] <zetheroo> Jordan_U: thanks
[09:17] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: You're welcome.
[09:17] <Kartagis> zetheroo: hrm, I guess the problem is that specific site. I can watch videos on discovery.com
[09:18] <zetheroo> Kartagis: in Synaptic which version on Flash do you have installed?
[09:19] <zetheroo> Jordan_U: do I need to remove OpenJDK before installing Oracle Java?
[09:19] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: No.
[09:19] <Kartagis> zetheroo: 11.2
[09:20] <jerardwack> Hi guys. I need help. All torrent clients on my server use only 100 mb network speed, but I have 1 GB. And this is 1GB work right
[09:20] <zetheroo> Kartagis: then this is what Chrome should be using
[09:20] <Kartagis> zetheroo: 11.2.202 to be specific
[09:20] <zChris> is there no alternative install for i386 ?
[09:20] <Kartagis> flashplugin-installer <IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>
[09:20] <zChris> the ordinary desktop iso fails to install for me
[09:21] <zChris> 12.04 btw
[09:21] <zetheroo> Kartagis: can you pls check why Chrome says that it has 2 files for it's Flash plugin?
[09:21] <Sven_vB> hi
[09:21] <poglesbyg> Hi Sven!
[09:22] <Kartagis> zetheroo: how do I check that?
[09:22] <zetheroo> Kartagis: when looking at the plugins in Chrome ... on the right side at the top of the page there is a Details button
[09:22] <zetheroo> click it and see what you see ;)
[09:22] <Sven_vB> i get this fsck announcement since days. do i have to manually unmount, check and remount the disk every month or might there be an easy way to re-activate automatic checking? *** /dev/sda9 will be checked for errors at next reboot ***
[09:23] <Sven_vB> oh and i've rebootet several times since. ;)
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> zChris: could use the mini ISO
[09:24] <zChris> ActionParsnip, yeah i sorted to that one :(
[09:24] <Kartagis> zetheroo: one of them is future splash player
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> zChris: its handy, saves having to install packages then immediately upgrade them all :)
[09:24] <zetheroo> Kartagis: huh?  "PepperFlash"  !?!?
[09:26] <Kartagis> zetheroo: I didn't
[09:27] <zetheroo> Kartagis: uhm ...  what do you mean? It was in your screenshot ...
[09:27] <auronandace> zetheroo: pepper is the api for chrome, chrome's builtin flash
[09:28] <zetheroo> auronandace: then why have I never seen it in my Chrome browsers?
[09:28] <Kartagis> zetheroo: it wasn't me who installed it. it must have come with Chrome. and the video doesn't play
[09:28] <zetheroo> Kartagis: what version on Chrome do you have and how did you install it?
[09:29] <auronandace> zetheroo: if you've installed flash via the package manager then that is default
[09:29] <auronandace> zetheroo: pepper is only in chrome (not chromium)
[09:29] <zetheroo> auronandace: ah, this makes sense ... since I only use Chromium :P
[09:30] <auronandace> zetheroo: me too
[09:30] <Kartagis> I never use Synaptic
[09:30] <auronandace> Kartagis: you should
[09:30] <zetheroo> Kartagis: are you using Chrome or Chromium ... and what version ?
[09:30] <zetheroo> Kartagis: well you should :D
[09:31] <auronandace> Kartagis: thats the whole reason the repos are there
[09:31] <taherAbdo> hi guys ... i gotta a problem in GD liberary on my ubuntu OS
[09:31] <evidex> @taherAbdo what's your problem?
[09:32] <Kartagis> I gave up on Chromium long time ago because Flash kept crashing on me. Version 23.0.1271.64 Chrome
[09:32] <zetheroo> Kartagis: if the software is not available via Synaptic and there are no decent PPA's then maybe I will look elsewhere
[09:32] <auronandace> Kartagis: anything you install from outside the repos we cant support here
[09:32] <taherAbdo> how to get another version of this liberary installed on my machien
[09:32] <Kartagis> auronandace: I mean I'm not using GUI, I always use apt-get
[09:32] <auronandace> Kartagis: oh, good
[09:32] <zetheroo> am using Version 20.0.1132.47 of Chromium without any issues
[09:33] <Ben64> synaptic isn't even installed by default anymore
[09:33] <auronandace> Ben64: still available in the repo
[09:34] <zetheroo> Ben64: I think you mean Synaptic Package Manager ;)
[09:34] <taherAbdo> can anyone help me please
[09:34] <zetheroo> Ben64: and it's always the first thing I install ... I cannot stand the Ubuntu Software Center
[09:34] <Ben64> auronandace: I know.       zetheroo: nope I mean synaptic
[09:35] <zetheroo> riiiight
[09:35] <AndChat39444> 21.12.2012
[09:36] <darthanubis> zetheroo,synaptic was too hard for users.....I'm guessing
[09:37] <zetheroo> darthanubis: that's fine, and I get that ... but USS is incredibly slow in comparison ..
[09:38] <darthanubis> zetheroo,I have not tried to yet, but can USC be purged
[09:38] <zetheroo> darthanubis: no idea ... I try to keep away from USC as much as possible
[09:38] <zetheroo> :P
[09:39] <aiqinghai> hi
[09:40] <Sven_vB> @ ubuntu software center, it also needs apt-xapian-index, which causes at least my systems to cron-ically hang/freeze for minutes at apparently random times. therefore it's one of the first things i get rid of after install
[09:40] <matej_> can someone tell what's wrong wirh ubuntu when I boor from usb seems like the graphic drivers is not working http://shrani.si/f/29/3R/2TguZfaB/2012-11-27-100853.jpg
[09:41] <aiqinghai> s
[09:41] <akw_> how can i install a program from its source file , i have ubuntu software center
[09:41] <Sven_vB> also apport, which continuously tries to report that itself crashed for two days, then only tells me that it's maximum number of reports has been reached... yes very helpful to see that at every login =)
[09:42] <akw_> but ubuntu software center cannot read pacakage files ?
[09:42] <alvesjnr> what is the name of the file manager used on unity?
[09:42] <alvesjnr> I want to call it using command line
[09:42] <auronandace> nautilus
[09:42] <meant0m> nautilus
[09:42] <alvesjnr> thank you
[09:42] <Sven_vB> akw_, open the package file in file-roller, it should offer to instal it
[09:43] <akw_> Sven_vB:  i extracted the tar.gz  , the extraction has a PackageSetup.py file and few folders
[09:43] <Sven_vB> akw_, does it have a "README" or "INSTALL" file?
[09:43] <genks> almixarife I've read about openshot, but It's a non-linear editing software... any suggests?
[09:44] <zetheroo>  Jordan_U: It works with Oracle Java 7 !! :D
[09:44] <genks> almoxarife sorry :)
[09:44] <akw_> no , i guess , but it has a file without any extension and is on the name of the software , i.e. sublime_text
[09:45] <akw_> this is what i downloaded http://www.sublimetext.com/2
[09:45] <almoxarife> genks: no idea, i dont edit vid
[09:45] <Sven_vB> akw_, have you tried just running the .py file?
[09:45] <akw_> Sven_vB: with terminal window ?
[09:45] <akw_> sorry i'm new on ubuntu
[09:45] <Sven_vB> akw_, yes, a terminal might be helpful :)
[09:45] <genks> almoxarife: however, thank you
[09:45] <Sven_vB> in case the authors didn't include a GUI

[09:47] <nerd> anyone using openbox ?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> nerd: i do
[09:47] <nerd> cool
[09:47] <nerd> so openbox run flawlessly in ubuntu ?
[09:47] <nerd> pls tell yes..!!!
[09:47] <xx4h> wth
[09:48] <xx4h> hl capsl.
[09:48] <evidex> nerd: Yup, openbox works fine on ubuntu
[09:48] <akw_> Sven_vB: how do i run a .py file ?
[09:48] <Sven_vB> akw_, "python " + filename
[09:48] <a218zhar>  hello everybody
[09:48] <evidex> nerd: If you like openbox though, it would be worth your while looking at crunchbang linux
[09:48] <evidex> nerd: It's a debian based distro that uses OB
[09:48] <akw_> Sven_vB: ok
[09:49] <akw_> Sven_vB: nothing happened ?
[09:49] <akw_> i mean nothing happened
[09:49] <user> проверка
[09:50] <Jordan_U> nerd: evidex: Lubuntu also uses OpenBox (as part of LXDE), and is an official Ubuntu flavor.
[09:50] <nerd> evidex: now i am quite addicted to ubuntu, so if openbox runs awesomely great than i would be really happy
[09:50] <zimi> xubuntu forever
[09:50] <almoxarife> kde for ever
[09:50] <almoxarife> :)
[09:50] <zimi> русские есть?
[09:50] <evidex> nerd: That's fair enough, but crunchbang is quite similar, and much more lightweight
[09:51] <nerd> linux for ever :P
[09:51] <Sven_vB> akw_, then i don't know. i'd have to find and read the install instructions, maybe you can find better ones. however, if you're new to ubuntu, rather try and find a binary package, then install that with help of file-roller.
[09:51] <evidex> nerd: worth playing with at least :)
[09:51] <zimi> yeap
[09:51] <nerd> evidex: ok will give it a try for sure :)
[09:51] <gogeta> Linux 4 life
[09:51] <Jordan_U> !ru | zimi
[09:51] <zimi> thanks
[09:51] <akw_> Sven_vB: ok one last question , what is a file-roller ?
[09:51] <Jordan_U> zimi: You're welcome :)
[09:52] <almoxarife> !info file-roller
[09:53] <Sven_vB> akw_, i think the menu calls it "Archive Manager". in this usage, it is a program that provides an "Install" button when you give it a .deb package.
[09:53] <nerd> Jordan_U: are the repos of lubuntu, xubuntu or ubuntu are same ?? i assume they are same right ?
[09:53] <almoxarife> Sven_vB: sure about that?
[09:53] <akw_> Sven_vB: thanks very much for your help , i appriciate it
[09:53] <Sven_vB> almoxarife, last time i tried, it did.
[09:53] <evidex> nerd: the repos are the same
[09:53] <nerd> evidex: cool
[09:54] <Sven_vB> akw_, btw, if you happen to have a shell open, you can more simply install with just dpkg -i setup.de
[09:54] <Sven_vB> .deb
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> akw_: if you use the CLI method, you may need to run:  sudo apt-get -f install    to satisfy deps
[09:55] <almoxarife> !gdebi
[09:55] <akw_> Sven_vB: unfortunately it doesn't have .deb extenstion
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> akw_: the extension doesn't mean much, if it is a deb file then it will install
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> akw_: you could rename it to jpg, the data doesn't change
[09:56] <Sven_vB> akw_, that's why i suggested to look for a binary package. it should have .deb then.
[09:56] <akw_> ok
[09:56] <akw_> thanks
[09:56] <GotCoffee> Hi, can someone explain the difference between e2fsck -c and e2fsck -cc to me?
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> akw_: it's a .run then its a slightly different file :)
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> GotCoffee: read the man page?
[09:57] <almoxarife> GotCoffee: the second has two 'c''s?
[09:58] <GotCoffee> ActionParsnip: That's where I got the command from but I don't understand the explanation. It says -cc uses a non-destructive read write test. Does that mean -c would destroy my data on the drive?
[09:58] <zetheroo> how do I make something like a batch file in Ubuntu? ... would it be a bash script?
[09:59] <zetheroo> I need this to be executed right before firefox is opened:   export NSS_SSL_CBC_RANDOM_IV=0
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: 2 line bash script will do it :)
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: top line:   #!/bin/bash
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: 2nd line:   export NSS_SSL_CBC_RANDOM_IV=0; firefox
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: mark the text file as executable and you are good to go :)
[10:01] <zetheroo> ok thanks!!
[10:02] <chael> hey guys..
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: you could even make an alias for your script in ~/.bashrc so that when 'firefox' is ran, it runs your script ;)
[10:02] <chael> can i ask something?
[10:02] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip: well I don't need it to run normally ... but just when I need to perform a certain task
[10:02] <zetheroo> ;)
[10:03] <chael> how to shared folder one computer to another
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: no worries
[10:05] <mkquist> Hey all which printers do best with linux?
[10:05] <almoxarife> chael: i use sftp, pretty painless
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> mkquist: I'd say HP
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> chael: you can use samba. Nautilus has nice functionality for sharing folders too. SFTP is more secure :)
[10:07] <mkquist> ActionParsnip thanks
[10:07] <chael> can you give me a link on how to do it..
[10:07] <brady1> http://www.noobslab.com/2012/08/install-delorean-dark-themes-on-ubuntu.html      , im trying to follow the previous link to install a theme, however, after ive run the commands, my windows havn't changed... anyone have any ideas what im doing wrong?
[10:08] <HTC-DZ> installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS last night. ran all updates. had to use nomodeset to get it. updated nvidia drivers to propriety ones, removed nomodeset from grub. computer starts up fine. however still using unity 2D not unity 3D. any ideas?
[10:08] <chael> i'm using mkahawa server and client??
[10:09] <chael> what is the best option or idea for sharing folder using mkahawa?
[10:12] <sbarcteam> hi. is it possible to run ubuntu inside KVM domain with 3d compiz based desktop?
[10:12] <ActionParsnip> HTC-DZ: I'd have a check through /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:12] <ActionParsnip> HTC-DZ: does nvidia-settings state the driver is in use?
[10:16] <HTC-DZ> action, is says its active with a green light next to it
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> HTC-DZ: sweet
[10:16] <HTC-DZ> is there something in particular im looking for in the log file?
[10:17] <HTC-DZ> should i maybe try a different propriety driver? version 173? and then install the 173 updates as well?
[10:19] <rkhshm> Can dmesg log issues like RAM failing or mobo failing?
[10:20] <brady1> that  would be cool.
[10:21] <ikonia> rkhshm: not really
[10:21] <ikonia> rkhshm: it's an OS log
[10:32] <elena-IK> I want to store a backup of a local directory on a remote server. I want the data to be encrypted before the transfer to the server. I currently use rsync and encfs inside sshfs for this, this seems quite buggy however. any good alternatives?
[10:34] <invisiblek> anyone familiar with mdadm and rebuilding/resyncing an array after a disk failure?
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> Htbrdd: which nvidia chip do you use?
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> oh well

[10:51] <McManiaC> hey, I'm trying to install ubuntu and get stuck on the "preparing to install" screen. now this apparently is a common bug and everybody recommends to format my harddrive, but I already erased the entire disk and it still doesnt work

[11:04] <darrend> hi - how to change keyboard layout on 12.04 server??  Tried dpkg-reconfigure {console-setup,console-data,keyboard-configuration} to no avail
[11:04] <tarzeau> darrend: temporarily you can use loadkeys in console and setxkbmap on X11
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> tmba: do you have wobbly windows enabled?
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> tmba: what video chip do you use?

[11:07] <darrend> tarzeau: doesn't work.  'loadkeys gb' or 'loadkeys uk' give various errors ("Keymap XXX: Permission denied" and others) and fail to affect the layout
[11:08] <darrend> tarzeau: also tried setxkbmap gb within X, no errors, but no change to layout

[11:13] <lucido> how can I install virtualbox's guest addons when I have a linux hosst and a windos xp guest os
[11:15] <MonkeyDust> lucido  i have that too, click Devices, Install guest plugins, it then downloads and executes in windows
[11:21] <herculesmorse> In ubuntu I am using the vboxnet0 adapter as a host-only network for a windows virtualbox i SOMETIMES have running. Thing is, I'm using this adapter also to resolve dns's back in (apache development server is *.dev).  Is there anyway to get it to always be there without having to fire up the virtualbox? or is there a smarter way to resolv
[11:21] <herculesmorse> e my dns's (I don't want to use lan adapter as the IP may change depending on where I am, the vnetbox0 stays always as <IP_ADDRESS>)
[11:21] <linux> hello
[11:21] <Gosy> hiho
[11:22] <linux> 海
[11:22] <linux> 这个怎么玩
[11:22] <MonkeyDust> !cn
[11:23] <McManiaC> ActionParsnip: finally… not sure what changed, ubiquity and gparted were up to date :/
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> McManiaC: all ok now?
[11:24] <McManiaC> ActionParsnip: it's installing I guess
[11:24] <McManiaC> :D
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> McManiaC: if its working, who cares
[11:25] <almoxarife> herculesmorse: you would need to keep the vbox instance alive, it could run headless in the background
[11:26] <herculesmorse> almoxarife, If I load up the virtualbox then kill it my vboxnet0 adapter is still running
[11:26] <herculesmorse> which is what I want
[11:26] <herculesmorse> so it will resolve dns's on my host machine
[11:26] <yhusha> ubuntu is anot allowing any changes to file access permissions
[11:26] <herculesmorse> but i dont want to have to fire up the virtualbox to get the adapter running
[11:28] <blackshirt> someone here experienced with linux based container ?
[11:29] <MonkeyDust> blackshirt  what's a linux based container?

[11:37] <Abhijit> hi. i can not login using phpmyadmin. clicking on go do nothing. and i get could not determine server name error on apache restart
[11:37] <Abhijit> helpplease
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: is the server name in /etc/hosts
[11:44] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, yes there are <IP_ADDRESS> localhost entry in /etc/hosts
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: is the server called 'localhost' ?
[11:46] <Abhijit> yes
[11:46] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, yes
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: not very descriptive, could cause issues when other systems want to connect to it too
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: think about it
[11:47] <ahhughes> everytime
[11:47] <ahhughes> ... I do an update it uninstalls vbox. annoying!
[11:48] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, there is also entry for <IP_ADDRESS> for Eshanika which is my hostname
[11:48] <ahhughes> it == something I can't explain :'(
[11:48] <almoxarife> ahhughes: you did a kernel update?
[11:49] <almoxarife> ahhughes: verify you have 'dkms' installed
[11:51] <freedom> hello
[11:51] <freedom> ？
[11:54] <lucido> I minstalled the virtualbox package in 12.10 and when I start the vm it says Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> lucido: did you install the linux headers package?
[11:55] <joallard> My windows often turn completely black and I don't know what to do about it
[11:57] <linux_lover> hello people!
[11:57] <almoxarife> joallard: you mean the screen dims?
[11:57] <joallard> almoxarife: no, one window at a time. pitch black.
[11:58] <linux_lover> IS IT POSSIBLE TO BACKUP 32BIT UBUNTU CONFIGURATION AND INSTALL 64BIT UBUNTU USING THAT CONFIGURATION?
[11:58] <almoxarife> joallard: randon?
[11:58] <iceroot> linux_lover: normally yes
[11:58] <MonkeyDust> linux_lover  repeat in lower case, please
[11:59] <tozen> :D
[11:59] <joallard> almoxarife: what appears to be randomly; we could say pseudorandomly ;)
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> !caps | linux_lover
[11:59] <linux_lover> Great! How Do you do it then?
[11:59] <tozen> linux_lover: backup /home install fresh one after thats it
[12:00] <linux_lover> What app do you use to Backup home?how about all the software installed? Do I have to install them again?
[12:00] <tozen> linux_lover man dd
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: I use a cron'd cp command
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: I don't believe the configs are arch dependant
[12:01] <iceroot> !backup | linux_lover
[12:01] <iceroot> !clone | linux_lover
[12:01] <MonkeyDust> linux_lover  try this http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391483/
[12:01] <linux_lover> making a note now. so do I need to installed all the software again ?
[12:02] <iceroot> linux_lover: yes
[12:02] <linux_lover> oh dear!
[12:02] <tozen> lol
[12:02] <iceroot> linux_lover: you should only backup your config and home, the rest you would install again (see the clone-tag from ubot93)
[12:02] <linux_lover> i have decided to total dump windows 7
[12:02] <tozen> linux_lover: try to use PING
[12:02] <iceroot> linux_lover: and if you want to change the architecture you cant backup all your programs
[12:02] <tozen> or clonezilla
[12:02] <linux_lover> move to linux for good after using it for a few years now
[12:03] <linux_lover> ubuntu is much faster than my windows 7 64bit
[12:03] <linux_lover> and I run windows-dependent app inside linux using Vbox
[12:03] <tozen> linux_lover: the main question is if everithing rolls splendid so where is the point to change arch?
[12:04] <linux_lover> Here is another question. Is it possible to upgrade from 32bit ubunutu to 64bit without reinstall?
[12:04] <almoxarife> linux_lover: no
[12:04] <tozen> no chance
[12:05] <linux_lover> :(
[12:06] <tozen> linux_lover: do you use some special soft?
[12:06] <tozen> linux_lover: all linux distrs already contain a lot of programs
[12:07] <Guest57719> i have cerificate issue with the cisco anyconnect, but i already installed the all the cert from /etc to /opt/cisco any suggesition ?
[12:07] <lucido> ActionParsnip, yes, installed sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic. What's module's name?
[12:07] <linux_lover> Thanks guys
[12:07] <tozen> linux_lover: i'm sure 98% of what you need is already included into distr
[12:08] <linux_lover> will be back if I need more help
[12:08] <tozen> linux_lover: ur welcome
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> lucido: do you have linux-headers-generic installed too

[12:12] <Stars-> good morning folks, what is the cmd to change root password? i did tried su passwd root, but didn't work
[12:12] <MonkeyDust> Stars-  there is no root password, there's sudo
[12:12] <linjiahao> hi
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Stars-: just use:  sudo -i   if you want a root prompt
[12:13] <jrib> !root | Stars-

[12:14] <Stars-> thanks guys

[12:15] <PellePlutt> The crap hangs at configured the kernel at 83%
[12:16] <linjiahao> LiuYan you are Chinese
[12:17] <lucido> ActionParsnip, I installed linux-headers-generic and then reinstalled virtualbox-dkms and no change
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> lucido: I'd ask in #vbox
[12:17] <lucido> k
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> lucido  try this line, worked for me   sudo modprobe vboxdrv;sudo modprobe vboxnetflt
[12:19] <Guest57719> anyone read my quiestion about the anyconnect cert issue ?
[12:19] <radiske> here's the situation, i have a ubuntu server, running firewall and it does all the router to my network... there's one address my network can't resolv... but if i ping this address directly from the server, it resolvs...
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> radiske  there's also #ubuntu-server
[12:19] <radiske> MonkeyDust: thanks!
[12:20] <elfranne> I made a backup of my home dir under kubuntu. Intalled a ubuntu 12.04lts added a user and  copied the home folder over but i can t login ... it goes back to the login screen after 2sec
[12:20] <lucido> MonkeyDust, that changed it to Failed to open a session for the virtual machine first.

[12:21] <MonkeyDust> lucido  how did you istall vbox?
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> elfranne: did you chown the files to the new user?
[12:22] <lucido> MonkeyDust, virtualbox package
[12:22] <TomyLobo> hi
[12:22] <Hyperbyte> Is there any way to disable the need for double clicking while navigating folders in a regular Gnome (fallback) save dialog?
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> lucido  from oracle or from the repos?
[12:22] <lucido> MonkeyDust, I had virtualbox-4.2 package installed before thats where my vm is from
[12:22] <lucido> MonkeyDust, repos
[12:22] <TomyLobo> http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/clang why does that require libstdc++6-4.6-dev and not 4.7?
[12:23] <MonkeyDust> lucido  that's odd, works perfectly here
[12:23] <lucido> MonkeyDust, I couldn't find the quantal repos from oracle
[12:23] <lucido> I'll try to discard the old config
[12:23] <cfhowlett> TomyLobo: greetings
[12:24] <TomyLobo> hello
[12:24] <linjiahao> hello
[12:24] <elfranne> ActionParsnip, i did not -_- ... i ll see that
[12:24] <TomyLobo> the reason i'm asking is that i'm kinda uncomfortable having 2 compilers' libraries installed
[12:25] <Estragon> hi
[12:25] <Estragon> im looking for some stories about installing ubuntu on a 2011 mac mini
[12:25] <Hyperbyte> In a touchscreen environment it's incredibly difficult to double click, so navigating a 'save as' or 'open' dialog in Gnome is a horrible task
[12:25] <gordonjcp> Estragon: funny enough, I've just (re-)installed on a 2007 Macbook
[12:25] <Estragon> any feedback ? is it as straightforward as installing it on a pc ?
[12:25] <Hyperbyte> Any possible solutions would be greatly appreciated. :)
[12:26] <gordonjcp> Estragon: it's not as straightforward as installing on a PC
[12:26] <Abhijit> hi. i can not login using phpmyadmin. clicking on go do nothing. and i get could not determine server name error on apache restart
[12:26] <xx4h> Guest66035, :-/
[12:26] <gordonjcp> Estragon: it's not too horrible though
[12:27] <gordonjcp> Estragon: I used this: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/41738/booting-linux-from-usb-using-efi
[12:27] <gordonjcp> to make a bootable USB stick
[12:27] <Estragon> thanks
[12:27] <gordonjcp> Estragon: if you install reFind I think it'll boot directly off an ISO
[12:28] <elfranne> ActionParsnip, thx man
[12:28] <gordonjcp> Estragon: you want refind anyway, assuming you're going to dual-boot
[12:29] <linux_lover> question.which directory do i need to backup if i want to replace the current 32bit with 64bit ubuntu?
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> elfranne: important step dude :)
[12:30] <MonkeyDust> linux_lover  home and etc may be the most important, especially home
[12:30] <linux_lover> even i didnt use home to save my personal files?
[12:30] <Abhijit> can i use same /boot for multiple linux
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: sure as long as the kernel versions don't overlap
[12:31] <MonkeyDust> linux_lover  home also contains config files
[12:31] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, ok
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: the hidden ones, you may find some are in ~/.config
[12:31] <linux_lover> they are hidden files right?
[12:34] <Faron> I have a question about the 2d session of 12.04 about the workspace switcher.
[12:34] <Guest66545> hi
[12:35] <Estragon> gordonjcp: thanks
[12:36] <Faron> Wait, nevermind. I'm going to switch to gnome3 anyway.
[12:37] <cfhowlett> linux_lover: directory?  you mean your /home files?
[12:37] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, if i have /boot and them encrypted lvm and /home / and swap in that lvm with another linux how can i instal lubuntu in this setup along side that linux?
[12:37] <linux_lover> yes
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: I've not used LVM. Is the other OS Ubuntu / Debian based?
[12:38] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, no
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: should be ok then. Not sure about LVM. I'd boot to the installer CD and see what you are presented with in the way of disks etc
[12:39] <Abhijit> ok
[12:45] <robottinosino> I am having all sorts of problems with tex/latex/texlive packages and 12.04, could anybody guide me through some troubleshooting, please? That would be really appreciated.
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> robottinosino: what problems?
[12:46] <linux_lover> is it possible to install 64bit ubuntu alongside an existing 32bit one from within the 32bit ubuntu?
[12:46] <iceroot> linux_lover: no
[12:46] <robottinosino> ActionParsnip: package texlive-base, for example, can only be successfully "half-configured" (in the parlance of dpkg)
[12:46] <iceroot> linux_lover: just use the normal installation and use the amd64 image if you want the 64bit version
[12:47] <robottinosino> dpkg --status texlive-base ---> Status: install ok half-configured
[12:47] <linux_lover> i have too much custom apps on my 32bit ubuntu
[12:48] <linux_lover> clean installation without the one that is properly backed up is too risky
[12:48] <emocakes> thank god I got ubuntu installed
[12:48] <emocakes> are there any bible reading apps for ubuntu?
[12:48] <emocakes> I've been searching the app store and I can't find any
[12:48] <linux_lover> nope
[12:49] <emocakes> why not linux_lover?
[12:49] <linux_lover> not on my pc
[12:49] <emocakes> how am I going to get my daily readings?
[12:49] <robottinosino> Package texlive-base is not configured yet, dpkg: error processing texlive-luatex (--configure), dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

[12:50] <samski> hi all, i was on here last night with an issuie with network manager that i got solved - i had accidentally removed llibpcsclite1 which took out wpasupplicant and network-manager. im back up on line now, BUT i can't get empathy to connect any more. there's been some mention online of problems with empathy and network manager. any idea what i can try to get empathy to connect?
[12:50] <robottinosino> How could I completely configure: texlive-base?

[12:50] <emocakes> any christians here?
[12:51] <robottinosino> ActionParsnip: was your last line for me?

[12:54] <emocakes> may god bless all of you
[12:54] <samski> dr_willis: morning! im back lol. this time empathy wont connect (i think its something to do with network manager)
[12:54] <emocakes> :)
[12:54] <ahhughes> how can I stop update manager from trying to update... I keep getting a warning on my mythtv machine that 10.2 is no longer supported.. I know..
[12:54] <dr_willis> samski:  it would be weird that one app on the sytem is not connecting.
[12:54] <cnf> hmz
[12:54] <dr_willis> ahhughes:  the update manager tool has some options i belive.
[12:54] <cnf> guess i got a reinstall coming up
[12:55] <samski> dr_willis: there is some specific bugs mentioned online of the empathy client having trouble around network manager...
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: 10.04 is still supported
[12:55] <dr_willis> samski:  I never use empathy. So you know more bout it then i do. ;)
[12:55] <samski> dr_willis: fair enoug
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: if you show hidden startup apps you can disable update checker (or whatever it's called)
[12:56] <cnf> damnit, how do i get rid of that :/
[12:56] <[awall]> anyone here. have source bypass google?
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: cd /etc/xdg/autostart/
[12:57] <dr_willis> [awall]:  that makes no sence what so ever.
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: sudo sed --in-place 's/NoDisplay=true/NoDisplay=false/g' *.desktop
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes:  you can then use the usual startup apps and disable what you don't use :)
[12:58] <dr_willis> [awall]:  msging me the exact same line.. does not make it any more clear what you want.. and it does NOT sound like a ubuntu support issue.
[12:58] <[awall]> dr_willis : you have this source?
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: source for what?
[12:59] <[awall]> bypass google
[12:59] <dr_willis> [awall]:  source to do what exactly.. 'bypassing google' is a meaningless term
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: thats not a program
[12:59] <MonkeyDust> [awall]  start from the beginning, what do you want and where did it go wrong?
[13:00]  * dr_willis gets  the feeling we got a wanna-be-haxor that dosent speak english well...
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: if you don't want to use google, don't use it. I rarely do these days
[13:00] <samski> problem solved, had to go to network and turn of automaticproxy
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> cnf: you could just install the package taht gives that file (maybe)
[13:01] <samski> has anyone got the source for internet? i wanna bypass operating system
[13:01] <dr_willis> i want to bypass the bypassing!
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> you have no chance to survive make your time
[13:01] <MonkeyDust> i want to download the internet

[13:07] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: just move the file out of the folder and it won't run
[13:07] <ahhughes> can
[13:07] <ahhughes> I rename it

[13:08] <[awall]> i not understand
[13:08] <nicolenicole> I just upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10 and now the computer will not recognize my external monitor, I'm on a laptop with a malfunctioning display, the new configuration has the display settings as for the laptop but displayed on the external monitor (so all the proportions are wrong) and cannot detect the external monitor, how do I get Ubuntu to recognize the external monitor and turn off the laptop display?
[13:08] <ahhughes> ..why didnt I buy the chiclet keyboard :'(
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: [awall] what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> ahhughes: try removing the .desktop extension, may work
[13:08] <k1l> [awall]: which ubuntu are you using?
[13:08] <linux_lover> keyring default keeps popping up, anyway to disable it? I'm using xubuntu 12.10.
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: if you set a blank password, it won't bother you
[13:08] <k1l> [awall]: and can you show the command that you typed to get that message?
[13:09] <linux_lover> how do you do that?
[13:09] <ahhughes> will try that ActionParsnip , cheers :) you'll make my tv experience so much better until I can buy a new hdd
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: use the passwords or security app in your menu. I forget the exact name
[13:10] <linux_lover> that is not helping a lot i have to admit
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> i love it when I have to exactly spoonfeed user, so much fun
[13:10] <k1l> linux_lover: take a look at the message why its popping up. most times its to get the wifi password. that is an easy fix
[13:11] <[awall]> ActionParsnip : how command output for lsb_release -sc ?
[13:11] <linux_lover> i love being spoonfed.
[13:11] <k1l> !pastebin | [awall]
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: try pressing ALT+F2 and run: seahorse
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: just paste it here, it's one ine
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> *line
[13:11] <linux_lover> keyring default is bugging me, as currently there is no security app in my xubuntu
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: or try running: /usr/lib/gnome-keyring/gnome-keyring-prompt-3
[13:12] <[awall]> ok wait
[13:13] <belgianguy> is there a way to list my ram sticks
[13:13] <linux_lover> im using xubuntu not ubuntu
[13:13] <belgianguy> in ubuntu
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: do the commands work?
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> belgianguy: try:  hwinfo
[13:13] <summerfaith> salam kenal semua
[13:13] <belgianguy> thx ActionParsnip
[13:14] <summerfaith> uh oh sorry english
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: its a quick command
[13:14] <linux_lover> my keyring functions as normal, but I just want to disable it.
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: then set a blank password for it
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> linux_lover: have a look through your menus
[13:15] <belgianguy> ActionParsnip: should I grep for something?
[13:15] <dr_willis> you can set the keyring to use a blank password and it will use 'unsafe storage' if you enter a blank password the first time it asks.
[13:15] <linux_lover> gnome-keyring-prompt-3: command not found
[13:16] <dr_willis> the 'seahorse' command used to be what was used to manage the keyring
[13:16] <linux_lover> that problem is that there is NO app in my xubuntu that manages keyring default
[13:16] <Vykk> ,
[13:17] <dr_willis> makes me wonder whats manageing the keyring then if theres no apps for the keyring..
[13:17] <linux_lover> makes me wonder too
[13:17] <dr_willis> gnome-keyring
[13:17] <dr_willis> gnome-keyring         gnome-keyring-3       gnome-keyring-daemon
[13:17] <linux_lover> there is seahourse manages my password
[13:18] <dr_willis> are the gnome-keyring-* apps hwere
[13:18] <dr_willis> under seahorse - use the view - by keyring, then in the login item - right click and you can change the default password for the whole keyring - i belive
[13:19] <[awall]> how to inet6 addr commands in shell unofficial ??
[13:19] <dr_willis> change the password, and set the new one to be just blank. (just hit enter)
[13:19] <dr_willis> [awall]:  should we ask you what your native language is?
[13:19] <k1l> [awall]: if you dont have a ubuntu ask in #linux please
[13:20] <dr_willis> [awall]:  your use of 'Unofficial' is totally  meaningless
[13:20] <Mortuis> Is there a way to set up a macro so that when I hit a key combo like Ctrl-E it will type out text, like "Hello World!"?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: why do you keep adding 'unofficial'
[13:20] <dr_willis> Mortuis:  ive seen tools to do that.. not used them in ages.
[13:20] <dr_willis> Mortuis:  some sort of 'macro' tools.
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: you stil haven't given the output of the command I gave
[13:21] <dr_willis> Mortuis:  my G15 Keyboard has special G Keys i use for macros. ;)
[13:21] <linux_lover> dr_willis
[13:21] <linux_lover> i have unlocked the login and default
[13:21] <belgianguy> hmm, hwinfo and lshw both list something to do with memory
[13:21] <linux_lover> what is next
[13:22] <belgianguy> but can I see this information split up somewhere, eg if I have 2 x 2GB or 1x 4GB
[13:22] <dr_willis> linux_lover:  there is no next step. It says you are using unencrypted stuff.. and warns you.. and you are done.
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> belgianguy: sudo lshw | less     will show you all hardware in terminal, including the RAM
[13:22] <[awall]> how this use VP6 to shell ??
[13:22] <Mortuis> Hmm, I'll have to google macro programs then, thanks dr_willis
[13:22] <dr_willis> bbl ya all..
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc   please
[13:22] <dr_willis> off to the Vets.
[13:23] <[awall]> ActionParsnip : wait
[13:23] <Guest57719> anyconnect cerificate issue anyone ? HELP pls , i'm so stacked...
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> [awall]: I am, I've asked you twice now
[13:24] <belgianguy> thanks ActionParsnip, that gave me what I needed
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> belgianguy: sweet :)
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> alinmear: can you please check your nick out, its spamming the channel

[13:26] <nicolenicole> I just upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10 and now the computer will not recognize my external monitor, I'm on a laptop with a malfunctioning display, the new configuration has the display settings as for the laptop but displayed on the external monitor (so all the proportions are wrong) and cannot detect the external monitor, how do I get Ubuntu to recognize the external monitor and turn off the laptop display?
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: what make and model laptop??? What video chip???
[13:27] <nicolenicole> AMD I think?
[13:27] <nicolenicole> I noticed the proprietary drivers don't show up either
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: what video chip do you use?
[13:27] <nicolenicole> AMD?
[13:27] <nicolenicole> I don't know?
[13:28] <k1l> nicolenicole: did you install the drivers from the ubuntu repo ord downloaded them form a website?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: if you run:  sudo lshw -C display    what is the Product line for the display
[13:28] <Sonderblade> where do you find a skype client that works on ubuntu 64-bit?
[13:28] <nicolenicole> it worked with the installation fine, then when I upgraded the monitor is gone and can't detect
[13:28] <nicolenicole> it works on live CD too
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: skype.com
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: thats not the output of the command I gave
[13:29] <linux_lover> Thanks for the help with keyring default everyone
[13:29] <nicolenicole> oh hold on
[13:29] <nicolenicole> PCI (sysfys)
[13:29] <nicolenicole> SCSI
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: you will need to install many 32bit deps, but it will run in 64bit Ubuntu
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: wait, your PCI bus is slow
[13:30] <nicolenicole> -display UNCLAIMED
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: just the product line
[13:30] <nicolenicole> VGA Radeon AMD
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: like I said 2 minutes ago
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: if you uninstall the driver, then reinstall it, it should resetup. It is rare for proprietary drivers to survive release changes
[13:31] <Sonderblade> ActionParsnip: the only deb they offer is skype-ubuntu-precise_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb and that's not installable on 64bit arch
[13:31] <nicolenicole> how do I do that?
[13:31] <k1l> !pastebin | nicolenicole
[13:31] <k1l> just put all in there.
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: no, there is a 64bit deb too
[13:33] <nicolenicole> how do I reintall the proprietary drivers?
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: however you installed the driver, use it again and remove it
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> nicolenicole: same way you did the first time
[13:33] <Eagleman> I never understood why the x is used for directories and files, could some one explain?
[13:33] <nicolenicole> I can't find the proprietary drivers setting in the Settings manager
[13:34] <Sonderblade> ActionParsnip: really? where?
[13:34] <nicolenicole> it seems to have been removed in the upgrade?
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: Skype is proprietarty, so ONLY skype can make a skype client
[13:34] <auronandace> Eagleman: what do you mean?
[13:34] <Eagleman> the x in chmod
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: skype.com make faux-64bit debs for 64bit ubuntu / debian
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: when you double click a folder, you need execute permissions to do that
[13:35] <auronandace> Eagleman: it sets whether something is executable
[13:35] <guntbert> Eagleman: x on files: executable,  x on directtories: may be entered
[13:35] <k1l> nicolenicole: systemproperties in systemsettings. then last tab
[13:35] <nicolenicole> I'm going to log out of XFCE and check GNOME
[13:35] <Eagleman> so i can enter a folder with 100 but not see any files or make any files?
[13:36] <auronandace> !permissions | Eagleman
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: wget -O skype_Ubuntu-current_amd64.deb http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-ubuntu-64   not work?
[13:37] <Eagleman> ActionParsnip i dont need skype on a CLI :P
[13:37] <Sonderblade> ActionParsnip: well i've looked all over their site and there is no 64bit deb there
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: its just CLI to install it.
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: ^
[13:37] <auronandace> ActionParsnip: wrong nick
[13:38] <Eagleman> indeed :P
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: croosed wires
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: wget -O skype_Ubuntu-current_amd64.deb http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-ubuntu-64   not work?
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Eagleman: my bad
[13:38] <ct529> hi everybody! ubuntu 12.10 64 bit here: when I boot, no GRUB2 menu. Computer select automatically the last update and boots. I do not seem to be able to show the GRUB2 menu.
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> ct529: hold shift at boot
[13:38] <k1l> ct529: press shift
[13:39] <k1l> can some OP remove alinmear ? his nickchanges are getting anoying
[13:39] <ct529> ActionParsnip: why? I would like the menu to always show
[13:40] <k1l> ct529: its the default that the menue isnt shown, when only ubuntu is installed
[13:40] <Touhou11> k1l: Just set your client to hide nick changes if it bothers you
[13:40] <k1l> ct529: you can switch that in the settings
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> ct529: you can tell grub to show in /etc/default/grub
[13:40] <Sonderblade> ActionParsnip: thanks. non us visitors gets an i18n:ized skype site where that link is not present
[13:40] <k1l> Touhou11: that is not the point. it annoys newbiews who are asking for help in here.
[13:40] <ct529> ActionParsnip: which option? my my GRUB_TIMEOUT=20 already
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: where do you think I got the link?
[13:40] <k1l> */annoys/distracts/
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> ct529: is grub set to hidden?
[13:42] <ct529> ActionParsnip: where do you do that?
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> ct529: GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true    set that to false, not obvious enough?
[13:43] <Sonderblade> ActionParsnip: i was wrong. despite the name of that deb it is still compiled for i386 - not 64bit
[13:43] <ct529> ActionParsnip: it is ALREADY set toi false
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: yes, there is only a 32bit binary, but your OS is multiarch, so you can run 32bit app in 64bit OS
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Sonderblade: you will need to run:  sudo apt-get -f install     to pull in about 70Mb of deps so that it can run
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> ct529: you will need to find out what needs setting, but its configured in that file. Remember to run:  sudo update-grub    after you make a change
[13:46] <louiemat> anyone help me in getting ubuntu 12.10 to print after install everything else works
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> louiemat: what printer?
[13:47] <louiemat> esp3250 kodak
[13:47] <ryannathans> ./Bullet_Candy_Perfect: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> louiemat: why was that not in your initial question?
[13:47] <ryannathans> i'm on 64bit and i have 32bit and 64bit libs installed for that
[13:47] <yello> Yo, anyone know how to get an ISO on DVD to install new OS?
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: what is the output of:  sudo updatedb; locate libGLU
[13:48] <louiemat> didn't know if I would get someone to help
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> yello: use a burning software
[13:48] <Touhou11> yello: Yes
[13:48] <yello> is it burning DVD or "Data disk"? if i burn, will all files inside iso be there, or iso itself..
[13:48] <ryannathans> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.1 and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.1.3.08004 (even though i just installed the i386 one?)
[13:48] <lusy> !ciao
[13:48] <lusy> !list
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: may be why then :)
[13:49] <Touhou11> yello: Depends on your software, usually an option like "Burn disk image" or "Burn ISO". A data disk won't work
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: if you run: file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.1
[13:49] <ryannathans> omfg i have dependancy problems
[13:49] <ryannathans> give me a minute... sigh
[13:49] <DJones> louiemat: This may help, although kodak printers don't appear to be well supported in ubuntu http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1656799&page=2
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: and: file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.1.3.08004
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: are they 64bit or 32bit?
[13:49] <yello> kk, or is it enough to "Move" the iso to the dvd drive?
[13:49] <ryannathans> so.1 is a symlink to the other and it's 64bit
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> louiemat: check openprinting.org   kodak hate Linux (and are now bankrupt)
[13:50] <ChogyDan> hiya folks.  What is the key combo to kill X?  ie, used to be ctrl+alt+backspace, then alt+Sysrq/prtnscrn+k
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> ChogyDan: could just run:   killall -u $USER
[13:50] <yello> bah.. i try, i have many DVDs............ BYEeeeeeee ubuntu Byeeeeeeeeeee
[13:50] <yello> hello windows...;d
[13:50] <ryannathans> ActionParsnip: aha! I'm up to another lib i'm missing..
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> yello: we care?
[13:51] <ChogyDan> ActionParsnip: I need it for system freezes....  no cli available
[13:51] <Touhou11> ChogyDan: You can re-enable ctrl+alt+backspace
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: fun fun fun
[13:52] <ChogyDan> !dontzap
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> ChogyDan: does CTRL+ALT+F1 not drop you to TTY1 ?
[13:52] <ryannathans> ActionParsnip: yep...
[13:52] <ChogyDan> no
[13:53] <ryannathans> ActionParsnip: how cna i work out what package has libXrandr.so.2 in it
[13:53] <ChogyDan> *shrugs*  o well, I miss the kill x command  :(
[13:53] <ryannathans> that wasn't too hard.. haha dw i got this.
[13:53] <Kartagis> ryannathans: try apt-file
[13:54] <ryannathans> just typed the lib's name into apt-get install and i found it
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> ryannathans: you can use http://packages.ubuntu.com
[13:58] <ryannathans> ActionParsnip: cheers
[13:59] <ct529> ActionParsnip: k1l: I think I know the options of grub.cfg .... the problem is that it is completely unclear to me how the menu was suppressed. The grub.cfg seems correct ....
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> ct529: could ask in #grub  as well ;)
[14:00] <ChogyDan> fwiw, re: I couldn't kill x, the sysrq was disabled
[14:00] <ct529> ActionParsnip: thanks!
[14:05] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:05] <gp5st> i have an application that will be reading from /dev/random often.  Is there a way to keep the entropy high?
[14:06] <gordonjcp> gp5st: entropy key
[14:07] <bhenry> good morning
[14:07] <gp5st> gordonjcp: sorry, i should have specified: it's on a server I don't have physical access to. but that is an idea i hadn't thought of
[14:08] <ryannathans> I can't work out where to get libbass.so from
[14:09] <ryannathans> i can't find it in packages.ubuntu.com
[14:09] <Kartagis> ryannathans: apt-file
[14:09] <Kartagis> is your friend
[14:09] <ryannathans> trying it now
[14:09] <rumpe1> gp5st, man urandom: "... /dev/random should be suitable for uses that need very high quality randomness" ...
[14:10] <gp5st> rumpe1: I'm using the output as iv's for encryption, is urandom random enough?
[14:10] <rumpe1> gp5st, not urandom... random. Urandom is for generation lots of random numbers with lower entropy
[14:11] <gp5st> rumpe1: ah. that's what i thought
[14:11] <nishttal2> hello ppl.. how do i setup a redundant FTP server (2 or more FTP servers) that looks like 1 FTP server (ftp.mydomain.com) to the external user?
[14:11] <ryannathans> nishttal2: dns magic
[14:11] <gp5st> reverse proxies!
[14:12] <ryannathans> when one is dead swap what the dns points to
[14:12] <nishttal2> ryannathans: can you point me to some documentation
[14:12] <ryannathans> i'v never done it myself
[14:12] <nishttal2> ryannathans: can that be automated?
[14:12] <ryannathans> yeah
[14:12] <ryannathans> people have round-robin style dns systems too you could ty
[14:12] <ryannathans> try but not sure if that's what you want
[14:13] <nishttal2> ok thanks
[14:13] <ryannathans> Kartagis: apt-file didn't find it
[14:14] <Kartagis> ryannathans: could it libass?
[14:15] <ryannathans> ./Scoregasm: error while loading shared libraries: libbass.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[14:16] <ryannathans> *blindly installs every lib ever
[14:17] <[awall]> how to use ipv6?
[14:18] <nishttal2> are there any network filesystems that duplicate data written to them on atleast 2 machines.. so one machine can go down without causing any data loss
[14:18] <ryannathans> like RAID but with multiple machines?
[14:18] <xx4h> nishttal2, drbd?
[14:19] <kpm> ill prefer drbd too
[14:19] <nishttal2> well RAID would be on top of a regular file system
[14:19] <nishttal2> i was wondering if there was a file system that does that natively
[14:19] <nishttal2> xx4h: kpm ok will look into that
[14:20] <nishttal2> is googles hadoop the answer?
[14:20] <nishttal2> sorry apache
[14:21] <gordonjcp> gp5st: /dev/urandom is less random but still pretty good
[14:22] <nicolenicole> I got it fixed, apparently Ubuntu 12.10 is not compatable with older AMD/ATI graphics cards?  I simply uninstalled fglrx and everything went back to normal, but will that affect my computer's performance now?
[14:22] <xx4h> nishttal2, didn't tested. but you should have a look at, sounds nice. but look at drbd too. =)
[14:23] <kpm> drbd is stable :)
[14:23] <nishttal2> xx4h: sure
[14:24] <nicolenicole> what are the advantages of using the proprietary driver?
[14:24] <aJacom> I need to make a script that "uses" a desktop application, by writing to two of it's input fields, and pressing enter. how can I make this? please help me get in the right direction
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> aJacom  better ask in #bash
[14:25] <aJacom> MonkeyDust,  thanks.
[14:25] <xx4h> nishttal2, first release 2011 Dec. not that much reliable testing around in the web.
[14:25] <k1l> nicolenicole: most times they have better feature support. like better 3d and external modi etc.
[14:26] <nongoogle> jrib it shows it in the network section of the list of locations 'bookmarked' in the right hand tab
[14:26] <nicolenicole> will I have problems now that I've uninstalled fglrx?
[14:26] <k1l> nicolenicole: but the prop. driver drop old cards (like you mentioned) so you have to go with it.
[14:26] <k1l> no
[14:26] <k1l> if it works, it works :)
[14:26] <xx4h> but some prizes won before 1.0.0
[14:26] <nicolenicole> oh ok, so it's not going to start crashing or freezing on video or 3D graphics?
[14:27] <nongoogle> i dont see an archive mounter command from "apropos archive mounter" anyways, i mean an .iso mounter
[14:27] <nongoogle> :C
[14:27] <k1l> nicolenicole: that depends on the videocard and the whole system. cant be guaranteed
[14:27] <teep> I hate my broadcom 4311 wireless card. *sigh*
[14:28] <nicolenicole> hm well the other alternative the blogs say is to downgrade to xorg 1.12
[14:28] <nicolenicole> not sure how to do that, but seems messy
[14:29] <MonkeyDust> nicolenicole  downgrade is not a good idea
[14:29] <nicolenicole> ok
[14:29] <[awall]> how to use ipv6?
[14:29] <k1l> nicolenicole: if it works i would give it a go
[14:29] <bhenry> where would i find the output of this cron job? … /bin/pwd 2>&1
[14:29] <nicolenicole> ok thanks
[14:29] <nicolenicole> I'll start with Hulu while I eat breakfast lolz
[14:29] <k1l> (i mean using the driver now)
[14:29] <Pici> bhenry: the mail of the user that it ran as.
[14:29] <nicolenicole> see how it handles web TV
[14:30] <nicolenicole> :-)
[14:30] <bhenry> Pici:  how do i check that?
[14:30] <excalibr> anyone runs Ubuntu on intel atom netbook here? does "lscpu" crash for you?
[14:30] <Pici> bhenry: type mail
[14:30] <bhenry> ah
[14:30] <k1l> [awall]: if you are not using ubuntu ask in #linux
[14:30] <bhenry> Pici:  command not found.
[14:31] <Pici> bhenry: less /var/spool/mail/yourusername
[14:31] <[awall]> k1l : linux
[14:31] <nongoogle> jrib i dont see an archive mounter command from "apropos archive mounter" anyways, i mean an .iso mounter
[14:32] <Pici> [awall]: You haven't answered any of the questions that people here have asked.
[14:33] <bhenry> Pici:  there must be something i need to turn on? there is nothing in /var/spool/mail
[14:33] <teep> okay.  Apparently I need to un-enable the wl driver module and force the b43 module to load at boot (for broadcom wireless 4311 card on inspiron 1520).  This is done by...?  Editing /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf?
[14:34] <Pici> bhenry: are you sure your cron job ran? is this root's crontab? (also, whats the point of running pwd in a cronjob?)
[14:34] <sargennto> After installing the package 'xubuntu-desktop' I no longer get the volume scroller graphic when I change the volume levels using my mouse scroll in Unity now... Any ideas?
[14:35] <bhenry> Pici:  i'm debugging. cron seems to be running but my script won't run. i know /bin/pwd works, but need a place to direct output where i can check it after.
[14:35] <bhenry> Pici:  after i get pwd running right i can substitute my bash script back in its place
[14:36] <Pici> bhenry: just do /bin/pwd/ > /some/location 2>&1
[14:36] <Pici> bhenry: that'll send output to /some/location and also push stderr to the same place stdout is going.
[14:36] <bhenry> Pici:  i can just forget about the 2>&1 if i do that right? i'd much rather have control over where my script output goes anyway
[14:37] <bhenry> oh i see
[14:37] <dv-> How do I record both desktop and mic with alsa?
[14:37] <Pici> bhenry: If you forget 2>&1, then stderr will go nowhere (or it should go to your mail, but we've shown that might not be working properly).
[14:38] <Pici> bhenry: As a habit, I use 2>&1 for all of the cronjobs that I have setup.
[14:38] <herculesmorse> Hey guys, I installed ms core fonts on Ubuntu 12.10 and they aren't appearing anywhere. ie. Libreoffice/editors/browsers etc.
[14:38] <herculesmorse> any ideas?
[14:38] <bhenry> Pici:  does stderr mean if there is no error nothing would be there? it would make sense that pwd wouldn't error
[14:38] <Pici> bhenry: Correct.
[14:39] <kiran_> hello
[14:39] <bhenry> Pici:  also is it the root mail folder ? owner of the cron file… or the user mail folder? the user specified in the cron file.
[14:39] <Pici> bhenry: If you're using /etc/crontab its the user listed. If your using a user's crontab, its that user.
[14:40] <bhenry> okay. i'm using /etc/cron.d/myfileshere
[14:41] <sudaya1> hi all, i got this message while installing skype in ubuntu 12.04 http://fpaste.org/wcGj/
[14:41] <sudaya1> any help please
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> sudaya1: if you run:  sudo apt-get install skype-bin     is it already installed?
[14:43] <nongoogle> I need to get a script running from an iso but my dvd burner exploded & i have to use the archive mounter
[14:44] <hondusa> hey - i need some help
[14:44] <teep> hrm.  Edited blacklist.conf to add wl (problematic driver).  Now I'm supposed to add b43 to /etc/modules
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> nongoogle: you can mount ISOs in terminal.....
[14:44] <gordonjcp> !help | hondusa
[14:44] <teep> How can I tell if I *have* b43?
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep: echo "b43" | sudo tee /etc/modules > /dev/null
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep: its just a text file, nothing fancy
[14:45] <teep> Oh, okay.  Thanks.
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep:
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep: wait
[14:45] <g-hennux> hi!
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep: echo "b43" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules > /dev/null
[14:45] <teep> Didn't type anything yet.  Was just reading.
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> teep: forgot -a :)
[14:46] <g-hennux> using ufw, how can i clean all rules that may have been added by other programs/scripts, and not by ufw?
[14:47] <hondusa> ubuntu will not recognize my password - "cryptsetup failed, bad password or options" - i installed ubuntu on a sony vaio and everything worked yesterday - how can i fix this?
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: is that your login password?
[14:48] <hondusa> correct
[14:48] <abhitest> hello guys. my dsl eth speed works normal on opensuse but it do not work on ubuntu. here are the details http://superuser.com/questions/509922/very-slow-dsl-ethernet-speed-new-interesting-update
[14:49] <abhitest> whats wrong with ubuntu?
[14:49] <sudaya1> ActionParsnip: i got this error message http://fpaste.org/nJp5/

[14:50] <ActionParsnip> abhitest: are there bugs reported?
[14:50] <abhitest> ActionParsnip: i dont know if its a bug or what? cause it also affect fedora
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> sudaya1: did you try:  sudo apt-get -f install
[14:50] <abhitest> so i am not sure whats wrong
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> abhitest: then I suggest you report one and state where is works and not works
[14:51] <abhitest> ActionParsnip: ok
[14:52]  * abhitest wonders how a bug can affect ubuntu and fedora at same time but not suse
[14:52] <hondusa> boot (holding shift) - advanced options for ubuntu - WHICH recovery mode? 18-generic? 17-generic?
[14:53] <pestilence> i'm trying to get gnome-classic running in VNC.  I installed gnome-core gnome-session-fallback, when I run the theme seems to be messed up.  It looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/3u89U.png    How do I fix this?
[14:53] <nongoogle> ActionParsnip do i need to install something with synaptic?
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: any, it doesn't matter
[14:53] <nongoogle> thanks for the assistance
[14:54] <hondusa> ok
[14:54] <pestilence> is there some package missing that causes it to look like that?
[14:54] <hondusa> prompted again for a password
[14:54] <hondusa> same problem
[14:54] <compdoc> pestilence, which vnc are you running?
[14:54] <pestilence> compdoc: TurboVNC
[14:55] <compdoc> that the client or the server?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> nongoogle: no, you can mount ISO files in terminal easily :)
[14:55] <pestilence> compdoc: the screenshot is from the client.  Both are TurboVNC
[14:55] <hondusa> im prompted for a password - i cant run a command
[14:55] <nongoogle> no i dont know the command to ActionParsnip >:C
[14:55] <compdoc> pestilence, I dont use TurboVNC, but can you pastebin your xstartup file?
[14:56] <sudaya1> ActionParsnip: yea i have tried
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> nongoogle: sudo mkdir /media/ISO; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/filename.iso /media/iso
[14:56] <pestilence> compdoc: I took it from here:  http://coddswallop.wordpress.com/2012/05/09/ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin-complete-vnc-server-setup/
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> nongoogle: there is also an app called mounty, but the CLI is childishly simple
[14:56] <sudaya1> ActionParsnip: when i tries to insatll again get same msg
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> sudaya1: try grabbing the deb from skype.com
[14:57] <sudaya1> ActionParsnip: tried that too
[14:57] <teep> "A hard disk is reporting health problems".  Reallocated sector count too high.  (Drive is five years old.  I've backed up all my stuff externally, new drive is ordered, should be here later today.)  Is this for real?  It's not making weird hard-drive-dying noises yet.
[14:57] <calimlero> un saluto tutti gli amici
[14:57] <sudaya1> ActionParsnip: but get same message
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> sudaya1: then uninstall skype, then reinstall it using the deb from skype.com. I just had to do that here
[14:58] <rumpe1> teep, drives can fail any time... 5 years can be a long time for a drive
[14:58] <compdoc> pestilence, thats the same xstartup I use, except I use this one different line:    /usr/bin/gnome-session --session=ubuntu-2d &
[14:59] <teep> *sigh*  But I just upgraded.  Like, two days ago.  Drat.  Looks like laptop surgery for me.  Thanks, folks.
[14:59] <compdoc> pestilence, I also run vnc4server on the remote
[14:59] <pestilence> compdoc: hmm.  let me try ubuntu-2d.
[15:00] <alvesjnr> hi all. I have installed a brand new Ubuntu (version 12.10) and there is a lack of window and menu bar on my unity
[15:00] <alvesjnr> any clue about whats going on?
[15:00] <compdoc> pestilence, you have to restart the service after making the change
[15:00] <pestilence> compdoc: i guess gnome-2d isn't a valid option in 11.10
[15:01] <pestilence> whoops, i misread.
[15:01] <compdoc> pestilence, theres a folder with the sessions you can use. Let me find it
[15:01] <pestilence> compdoc: ubuntu-2d is the non-3d unity is it not?
[15:02] <compdoc> I think you can use any you find in:   /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/
[15:02] <compdoc> just dont include '.session'
[15:02] <nongoogle> y thank u mr ActionParsnip
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> nongoogle: all ok?
[15:03] <pestilence> compdoc: I do have ubuntu-2d.session in /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/, however, it says 'Failed to load session "ubuntu-2d"' when I try to run
[15:03] <hceylan> Hey guys what do you in general use for irc ın ubuntu xchat or xchat-gnome?
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> hceylan: irssi and pidgin
[15:04] <compdoc> pestilence, not sure why
[15:04] <pestilence> compdoc: I don't have ubuntu-desktop installed
[15:04] <compdoc> its server?
[15:04] <pestilence> compdoc: it's surprising that i have that .session file.
[15:04] <insmod_> http://www.bitchx.com/
[15:04] <pestilence> compdoc: yes, it's a server.
[15:04] <hceylan> ActionParsnip, Hımm, I am finding the unity indicator support is somewhat broken for xchat and xchat-gnome, does it work for irssi and pidgin?
[15:04] <k1l> hceylan: without -gnome. that is just cut down
 any thoughts on this password problem - im sorry, i know its frustrating dealing with a noob
[15:05] <pestilence> compdoc: i really think that I must be missing some theme package
[15:05] <compdoc> pestilence, I install server, and then:  sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop
[15:06] <hilo> hello can someone help me convert an img file to an iso? I tried using ccd2iso but I get back an error "Unrecognized sector mode (0) at sector 0!" I also tried acetoneiso but it does not have the convert ability
[15:06] <hceylan> k1l, you mean drop xchat-gnome and go with xchat?
[15:06] <nongoogle> i dunno lol *shrugs*
[15:06] <nongoogle> oh the mystery of linux
[15:06] <nongoogle> :D
[15:06] <k1l> hceylan: yes.
[15:06] <pestilence> compdoc: running that install now.
[15:07] <compdoc> pestilence, the '--no-install-recommends' does not install libreoffice and all the other stuff, so its as close as you can get to a basic desktop
[15:07] <hceylan> k1l, On 12.10 I am experiencing the following problem. If I close the window, (1) it does not minimize to the indicator area, (2) if I click on the indicator, then it fires another instance of xchat... Do you see these symptoms?
[15:07] <nongoogle> after attempting a download Firefox has greyed out :C
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: if the pasword reset doesn't fly in root recovery then it must be some other pass
[15:08] <insmod_> hondusa:do you have root?
[15:08] <pestilence> compdoc: gotcha.  that was the only reason i didn't install ubuntu-desktop, actually.  the size difference is immense...like 2 gigabytes down to 100 megabytes.
[15:08] <hondusa> no
[15:08] <k1l> hceylan: i dont use indicator
[15:08] <pestilence> compdoc: (with and without --no-install-recommends)
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> !noroot | insmod_
[15:08] <compdoc> pestilence, you should also install:   sudo apt-get install unity-lens-applications gvfs-backends
[15:08] <hondusa> when i boot into recovery it prompts me for a password
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: then you have set a root password
[15:08] <pestilence> compdoc: i don't intend on using unity, but rather gnome. still required?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: in ubuntu that drops straight to the prompt so you can run commands
[15:09] <compdoc> pestilence, then likely just gvfs-backends
[15:09] <compdoc> allows nautilus to browse the lan
didn't i say that
[15:09] <pestilence> compdoc: ha, doubtful i'll be using nautilus to browse the lan :)
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> insmod_: just backing you up
[15:10] <pestilence> let alone browse the disk!
[15:10] <pestilence> compdoc: I'm running on an EC2 instance
[15:10] <compdoc> pestilence, oh, nice
[15:10] <hondusa> actionparsnip, i know you cant tell me how to set a root password, but is there a place i where i can figure that out?
[15:11] <hondusa> im at a total loss - there is important data that i haven't backed up yet - i dont want to lose it
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: you have set it yourself
[15:11] <hondusa> how?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: why did you set the root password
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: ubuntu defaults to leaving it alone
[15:11] <insmod_> hondusa: then just boot a live disk
[15:12] <hondusa> i can boot the live disk - but cant access the hd
[15:12] <k1l> hondusa: that is the problem with setting a root-password. bootup a live-cd/stick and copy the data to a external drive
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: you have full system access using sudo, so why set the root password?
[15:12] <hondusa> im prompted for my password - i enter it - nada
[15:12] <insmod_> hondusa: you have to mount it
[15:13] <k1l> or did you encrypt your hdd?
[15:13] <insmod_> hondusa: live disk pass is enter
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: did you use encryptfs?
[15:13] <hondusa> yes
[15:13] <maji> Hello, i'm currently dualbooting windows and ubuntu on this computer, i have some partitions with data that i want to transfer between but for some reason these partitions are "linux autodetect raid" and i'm unable to access them on windows
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: so you can see my text. Why did you set a root password at all?
[15:13] <hceylan> k1l, ok thanks
[15:13] <maji> they used to be fat32 and i can still access the data on ubuntu, what should i do?
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> maji: are the partitions healthy?
[15:14] <insmod_> hondusa: boot live disk install  encryptfs enter pass done
[15:14] <hondusa> i didnt know i was setting a root password
[15:14] <maji> yeah, they work and everything
[15:14] <pestilence> compdoc: ha.  after installing ubuntu-desktop, when I run with that same vnc config, it launches unity!  *sigh*
[15:15] <pestilence> compdoc: actually, it's not the same config.  nevermind.
[15:15] <hondusa> encryptfs = application?
 edit the config file
[15:15] <samski> hi, can anyone tell me why this package doesnt seem to be available for install through apt-get? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcsc-lite
[15:15] <compdoc> pestilence, well, yes. But gnome must have sessions. or, you could use the other type of xstartup that runs:  exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: you will need to boot to liveCD, mount adnd decrypt the data then get the data off. LOts of messing around. WHy do you not have a decent backup?
[15:16] <pestilence> compdoc: yes, that's what it was doing.  gnome-classic is still messed up.  guess i'll just use unity2d
[15:16] <compdoc> unity is fine
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> pestilence: could use XFCE, KDE or LXDE as an alternative
i like blackbox and widowmaker
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> pestilence: XFCE and LXDE will run your Gnome apps with few deps
[15:17] <pestilence> ActionParsnip: i wanted to use classic gnome.  but it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/3u89U.png
[15:17] <pestilence> ActionParsnip: i'm not really looking to get into a debate about the merits of windows managers, just trying to figure out why this one looks like it does.
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> pestilence: XFCE has the Gnome2 smell
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> pestilence: Gnome is a desktop environment, not a window manager
[15:18] <MonkeyDust> pestilence  also: fallback is very similar to gnome2
[15:18] <hondusa> boot from live cd - mount and decrypt data?
 is it an upgrade?
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: yes
[15:18] <pestilence> insmod_: no.  server.
 can you ssh
[15:19] <Guest5173> trying to use ubuntu csutomization kit and it keeps failing on account of file permission issues any resolutions
[15:19] <Toph2> a common confusion exists, myself included, between window managers and desktop environments
[15:20] <pestilence> compdoc: it appears that ubuntu-2d is not immune:  http://i.imgur.com/mN3dv.png
[15:20] <maji> so, can i change the partition type of the linux autodetect raid to fat32 again without losing data?
[15:20] <hondusa> actionparsnip, im booting from the live cd now
[15:20] <samski> can anyone else install this package?  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcsc-lite, i get E: Unable to locate package pcsc-lite
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: I suggest you review your backup strategy. It's clearly not suitable
[15:20] <pestilence> insmod_: i think you are a couple of steps behind.  here's where i am at:  http://i.imgur.com/mN3dv.png  VNC desktop running on server.  It's messsed up in a non-trivial way.
[15:20] <hondusa> i agree - thanks for the help - i might need you along the way - i appreciate this
[15:20] <compdoc> pestilence, maybe a trubovnc thing. I can set pictures or colors as desktop backgrounds
a window manager handles apps but typicaly does not have the a desktop has them
[15:21] <pestilence> compdoc: possibly.
[15:21] <Guest5173> how to change file access permission?
[15:21] <compdoc> pestilence, check the client settings
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> samski: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[15:22] <samski> ActionParsnip: quantal
[15:22] <hondusa> actionparsnip, how can i decrypt this data?
 chown
[15:22] <Toph2> insmod_,,, could you pleas post that again,, i think it was missing a part
[15:22] <TobiasTheViking> seriously... 50% cpu from xorg running just two apps(terminal and system monitor)
[15:23] <TobiasTheViking> i've been seeing this ever since i upgraded to 12.10
[15:23] <TobiasTheViking> anyone else seeing this
[15:23] <pestilence> compdoc: i don't think it's entirely client settings.  the fonts in gnome-terminal are just wrong....it's using some non-fixed width font.
[15:23] <compdoc> pestilence, oh yeah - in the terminal, turn off the fixed width font
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> samski: I have a PPA for precise, not quantal. Gima a sec
[15:23] <minimec> TobiasTheViking: I would do such kind of tests with 'top' or 'htop'. Enjoy the difference...
[15:23] <Guest5173> insmod have tried chown it only changes folder permission but the properties menu keeps putting s line  acorss in the file access permissions and it wont accept anything else
[15:24] <hondusa> actionparsnip, in live cd im still met with this same passphrase issue - how is t that i turn my computer off and the next day my password doesnt work?
[15:24] <compdoc> pestilence, it doesnt install all the system fonts
[15:24] <pestilence> compdoc: oh, what font packages could I be missing?
[15:24] <Pici> samski: The binary packages that this source package builds to are: pcscd, libpcsclite-dev, and libpcsclite1.  If you want to install one of them, apt should be able to find it.
[15:24] <giostrina85> lista
  -R
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> samski: seems its in the main repo at 1.8.5
[15:24] <TobiasTheViking> minimec: that is top saying 50% cpu from xorg
[15:25] <TobiasTheViking> well 50% cpu on the good days
[15:25] <Guest5173> how would that look for /home/yhusha
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: i don't use encryptfs, its too much of a headache. There are guides online galore, maybe someone can help you
[15:25] <TobiasTheViking> currently at an all time low of 25%
[15:25] <netzapper> hey, I'm running Ubuntu 12.04. My workstation lost power over the weekend, and when I powered it back up yesterday, the analog sound card is not showing up in pulseaudio, and is not being used for playback. Instead, it's showing only the HDMI output from my graphics card. alsamixer shows the sound card, but not PA. Can somebody point me toward what I should be fiddling with?
[15:25] <samski> Pici: shouldnt pcsc-lite be a package i an just apt-get install?
[15:25] <TobiasTheViking> opensource radeon driver, no such issue with any prior ubuntu
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> hondusa: in future I recommend you don't use encryptfs. Its a lot easier
[15:25] <hondusa> ok
[15:25] <samski> ActionParsnip: so i just need to download it at dpkg it?
[15:25] <Pici> samski: no. Its the name of the source package that builds the others.  Theres no requirement that they have the same names.
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: what video chip do you use?
[15:26] <TobiasTheViking> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV620 [Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series]
[15:26] <minimec> TobiasTheViking: Ok. In that case I would try a window manager without composite for a try. 50% is too much.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> samski: its in the repos, so you can install it with apt-get or software centre
[15:26] <insmod> <netzappe: change the output
[15:26] <TobiasTheViking> nothing of import in xorg.0.log

[15:26] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: in 12.10?
[15:26] <hondusa> actionparsnip, can i wipe this clean and install from the live cd?
[15:26] <TobiasTheViking> ActionParsnip: da
[15:26] <Guest5173> insmod how would that be writ.. the -r in chown
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: not heard of the bug in 12.10 with AMD 2xxx 3xxx and 4xxxx GPUs?
[15:26] <TobiasTheViking> nope
[15:26] <TobiasTheViking> that's why i'm coming here :D
[15:27] <samski> ActionParsnip: it isnt found :S
[15:27] <TobiasTheViking> if there is such a beast, please linkify me
[15:27] <Pici> samski: Which package are you trying to install?
[15:27] <samski> Pici: pcsc-lite is apparently what i need
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: basically the xorg version in 12.10 hates your GPU
[15:27] <TobiasTheViking> minimec: doesn't really solve the problem though, since i LOVE unity.
[15:27] <giostrina85> !list
[15:27] <TobiasTheViking> and have since before it was standard :D
  chown -R
[15:27] <Pici> samski: There is no such pacakge of that name.  Are you trying to compile something that requires it?
[15:27] <Guest5173> insmod thats it nothing else
[15:27] <samski> Pici: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcsc-lite isnt this a package?
  chown -R dir
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:makson96/fglrx
[15:28] <samski> Pici: yes i am, lbnfc
[15:28] <TobiasTheViking> ActionParsnip: so, downgrade to 12.04, or upgrade to 13.04 are the only viable options?(depending on your definition of viable for 13.04 :D)
[15:28] <samski> libnfc**
[15:28] <Pici> samski: Then you very likely want libpcsclite-dev
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get install fglrx-legacy
[15:28] <TobiasTheViking> giostrina85 <- spamming me
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: no, you just need the legacy driver
[15:28] <Pici> TobiasTheViking: can you pm me the message you got?
[15:28] <minimec> TobiasTheViking: That is indeed an argument. I am using a e17 +gnome-panel +gtk apps like of comobination for years now.
[15:28] <TobiasTheViking> ActionParsnip: i'm NOT touching thos binary drivers if i can help it
[15:28] <TobiasTheViking> Pici: from giostrina85?
[15:28] <Pici> TobiasTheViking: yes
[15:28] <samski> Pici: thanks, will try, ive been round in a bit of a circle with those, so i was trying to do it "right"
[15:29] <tmba> hi, is there any way of moving windows in 12.10 with less lag?  I had no issues in 12.04.
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> TobiasTheViking: then you'll need a reinstall of Precise.
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> tmba: if you make a fresh ubuntu user, is it the same?
[15:29] <TobiasTheViking> ActionParsnip: good, thanks :)
[15:29] <Guest5173> insmod tried chown -R /home/yhusha and it says missing operand after <<</home/yhusha
[15:30] <jbwiv> hi guys. I've just installed 12.10,  and things look good except for window animations. I have three monitors powered by a Radeon 6700, and even with the proprietary drivers, window animations (fades, minimizations, etc) are very sluggish. Any ideas what needed to be tweaked to fix?
[15:30] <netzapper> insmod: the output does not exist in the pulseaudio volume control. Can you point me toward where I can specify a list of which devices should appear in the controls?
[15:30] <tmba> ActionParsnip: I haven't tried, this is my production desktop so don't really want to reinstall all. I did install 12.04 fresh though so its only been through 1 round of upgrades.
[15:30] <TobiasTheViking> ActionParsnip: i don't care as much that it is broken, i care more if i have no way to solve it.
[15:30] <TobiasTheViking> so thanks a bunch :)
[15:30] <altin> everytime I restart my pc, my history gets corrupted !!
[15:30] <TobiasTheViking> you know if the bug is still in 13.04? because i might try that before/instead of 12.04
  chown -RxwrX dir
[15:30] <altin> anyone had this problem before ?
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> tmba: when did I say reinstall to you?
[15:31] <tmba> ActionParsnip: To get it totally smooth in 12.04, I had to remove vsync and increase rate in compiz config
[15:31] <tmba> ActionParsnip: sorry read a bit too fast here, I'll try with new user
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> tmba: all I said was make a new Ubuntu user. That is not reinstalling.  When I send a mail with the user root, the email have the adresse<EMAIL_ADDRESS>how can I somehow "alias" the root user to another name when I send a mail ? Like<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[15:34] <mindbreaker> hey guys, what can i do against screen freezing? i want to install ubuntu but it freezes
[15:34] <Guest5173> insmod: that gives chown -RxwrX dir
[15:34] <Guest5173> chown: invalid option -- 'x'
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> mindbreaker: can you expand on 'freezes' please
  chown -Rwr dir
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> insmod: do you mean chmod ;)
[15:35] <TheLordOfTime> insmod, chmod would do that, not chown...
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> insmod: chown needs a username too (ch)ange (own)er
[15:35] <Guest5173> insmod: that gives chown -Rwr /home/yhusha
[15:35] <Guest5173> chown: invalid option -- 'w'
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: chown needs a username
[15:36] <Guest5173> and that w is whats important
[15:36] <insmod> ah yes
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> insmod: ;)
[15:36] <Guest5173> ahh
[15:36] <mindbreaker> after ubuntu is booted, it runs a while and then the screen freezes .. this means the mouse pointer is here but i can't move it and i can't do anything
[15:37] <Guest5173> so chown user -RxwrX or chown -RxwrX user?
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> insmod: it's either  chmod -R +wr /home/yhusha  or     chown -R yhusha:yhusha /home/yhusha
[15:37] <samski> Pici: seems wor be working
[15:37] <Pici> samski: great :)
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> insmod: you're mixing the 2 :D
[15:37] <insmod> yes
[15:37] <samski> Pici: do you know how i could get a ppa for precise to work on quantal?
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> samski: its not advised and can break things
[15:38] <nongoogle> how do i make osspd work with my ubuntu?  trying to make the source makes a bunch of errors 3:
[15:38] <Guest5173> Actionparsnip this app needs admin rights to run so should it be chown user root?
[15:38] <TheLordOfTime> samski, you wouldnt unless they have a quantal package.
[15:38] <TheLordOfTime> Guest5173, did you try running the application as sudo, though?
[15:38] <mindbreaker> do you need further information? :S
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: if it needs admin access then you don't need chown or cmod
[15:38] <samski> i think its just a matter of it hasnt been updated recently
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: you just prefix the command with sudo

Everytime my laptop goes to sleep and I leave one network, when I open it and try to connect to another network (work vs home for example) no matter what combination of ifup/ifdown and sudo dhclient I do I cannot get connected. However if I restart, as soon as I log in it works fine. Anyone know what the restart process might be doing that I can learn to emulate?
[15:39] <samski> TheLordOfTime: am i better just downgrading to 12.04 then?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> ldlework: try unloading then reloading the network module
why using osspd
[15:39] <altin> everytime I restart my pc, my history gets corrupted !! does anyone know what's the problem ?
[15:39] <TheLordOfTime> samski, send an email to the PPA maintainer, see if he can create a quantal version.
[15:39] <TheLordOfTime> samski, not really.
[15:39] <OerHeks> samski, contact the ppa owner
[15:39] <TheLordOfTime> samski, downgrading just to use one app?  not a good idea.  contact the PPA owner.
[15:39] <ldlework> ActionParsnip: is that a modprobe thing? stopping a daemon?
[15:40] <nongoogle> insmod because i wanna run smacpp on linux
[15:40] <samski> TheLordOfTime: i only installed linux for this one project
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: the owner of the file doesn't dictate the access. It will still be your user running it, so it needs sudo to run
[15:40] <samski> :P
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> ldlework: sudo modprobe -r name; sleep 2; sudo modprobe name
[15:40] <TheLordOfTime> samski, still contact the PPA owner.  If you want to downgrade, you'll have to reinstall (easiest method) 12.04.
never heard of it
[15:40] <TheLordOfTime> samski, or find someone who can modify the package accordingly.
[15:40] <ldlework> ActionParsnip: nice, I'll try that next time. thanks.
[15:40] <samski> TheLordOfTime: i will contact the PPA owner. compiling it myself isnt working, everything is broken
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> ldlework: you can see the driver module with:  sudo lshw -C network
[15:41] <TheLordOfTime> samski, you don't have the build deps then :P
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> ldlework: look for:  driver=
[15:41] <Guest5173> yes gave it su permission but it still gives an error failure  on account of w/r access
[15:41] <samski> TheLordOfTime: its more broken than that i think
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: that won't change any with chowning etc
[15:41] <TheLordOfTime> samski, which're probably all in that PPA :P
[15:41] <TheLordOfTime> samski, in any case, contact the PPA owner, if you want you can replace 12.10 with 12.04 by reinstalling from the 12.04 disk (it'll overwrite 12.10 so backup any data you want to keep)
[15:42] <vitimiti> (·_·)/
[15:42] <samski> TheLordOfTime: im getting errors such as: nfc.c:122:20: error: macro "log_init" passed 1 arguments, but takes just 0
[15:42] <fss7546> ..
[15:42] <Guest5173> still it would be nice to figure out how to change file access perm's wiewable in the properites
[15:42] <TheLordOfTime> samski, no offense, but i'm not going to help debug a package i'm not familiar with.
[15:42] <minimec> samski: Honestly... I would try to add the 'newest' repo to my sources.list. It should do. As far as I see, it only adds libraries and does not replace any. So small risk in my eyes.
[15:43] <samski> TheLordOfTime: thanks. im not asking you to debug the package dont worry :)
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Guest5173: look into chown and chmod examples online
[15:43] <Guest5173> yea been doing that
[15:43] <samski> minimec: i already tried adding to software sources but it cant find the "libnfc" package when i run apt-get
[15:43] <binaryhat> i have write list = binaryhat, rick but only binaryhat can write to the share...suggestions?
[15:46] <minimec> samski: So it has one onsolved dependency... But libnfc is not part of the ubuntu repos, even searching the content of the ubuntu packages... http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=libnfc
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> !find libnfc
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> minimec: is it a file inside a package?
[15:47] <samski> minimec: so there is no way of getting apt-get to find it?
[15:47] <minimec> ActionParsnip: samski: that library is part of the ppa.
[15:48] <samski> minimec: i thought once you add a ppa, you can use apt-get to install packaged from it?
[15:48] <rajmahendra> i am getting broken package manager error who to solve this ?
[15:49] <minimec> samski: Well... First you have to sudo 'apt-get update'
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: run:  sudo apt-get -f install; lsb_release -a; uname -a     please pastebin the output. Thanks
[15:49] <jovensito> eyy

[15:50] <samski> minimec: how would i know? i have it in "software sources"
[15:51] <samski> minimec: and i used "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jdthood/nfc/ubuntu precise main " to add it

[15:52] <minimec> samski: You have to use an existing 'distribution name'... Change 'precise' to 'oneiric'. That is the 'newest' source I see for that ppa.
[15:52] <samski> llutz: minimec: ahh, right. the launchpad page says they exists, but maybe out of date or something? (https://launchpad.net/~jdthood/+archive/nfc)

[16:00] <Guest57719> it's kind of urgent, can someone help to me ? the error again http://paste.ubuntu.com/1391954/
[16:00] <aJacom> blazemore, Recover a long time lost password.
[16:00] <samski> OerHeks: im trying the oneiric version
[16:00] <OerHeks> samski, mixing oneiric ppa in quantalis a bad idea.
[16:00] <blazemore> aJacom: In what application?
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> Guest57719  as soon as someone has the answer, they will help -- start with providing more details
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> tmba: the old settings from the old user are causing an issue, the drivers and compiz are fine :)
[16:01] <minimec> samski: Ok. Let's do it 'hardcore'! You directly download the few deb packages directly from the ppa and save it in a folder like nfc-ppa.
[16:01] <samski> OerHeks: im just giving it a try, minimec: thinks it might not be so bad as itsjust installing libraries
[16:01] <aJacom> blazemore, Do you know any tool or are we going into an ethical debate?
[16:01] <blazemore> aJacom: I don't know any generic tools
[16:01] <minimec> samski: Then you go to that folder and sudo dpkg -i *.deb That's all ;)
[16:01] <samski> minimec: thought it would end up like this! :)
[16:01] <blazemore> aJacom: I don't care what you want to do with it
[16:01] <rajmahendra> ActionParsnip, anything need to do with the broken package ?
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: you are using a PPA for libreoffic eand the files in the packages are overlapping
[16:01] <tmba> ActionParsnip: yeh, just trying to figure out which settings are the issue. I'm thinking the chances are its compiz
[16:01] <samski> minimec: thanks v much, will report back shortly
[16:01] <blazemore> aJacom: I just wondered if it was a specific application like a zip archive or a spreadsheet, there are dedicated tools for that
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: dpkg doesn't like that and I suggest you contact the PPA maintainer.
[16:01] <minimec> samski: ok.
[16:02] <Guest57719> MonkeyDust i guess everything is in the paste, it's cisco anyconnect client for ubuntu and ssl cert issue
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: you can make it not care with:  sudo dpkg --force-all -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libreoffice-gtk_1%3a4.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu1~ppa1_i386.d
[16:02] <rajmahendra> ActionParsnip, how to remove it ?
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> eb
[16:02] <rajmahendra> ActionParsnip, ok tku :)
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: contact the PPA maintainer and send them the text in that pastebin
[16:03] <aJacom> blazemore, Ah. Would you mind taking a quick look at my post in crackingforums? It'll explain a lot, and I couldn't find any help. http://crackingforum.com/cracking-tools/339576-windows-linux-desktop-app-password-cracking.html
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: this will get them to fix their packaging so it affects fewer users
[16:03] <aJacom> It's very short
[16:03] <rajmahendra> ActionParsnip, it says no such file or directory
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: I missed the last 2 letters from the file name
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> rajmahendra: hence me adding them on the next line
[16:05] <netzapper> What are some reasons that a sound card might show up in alsamixer but not pavucontrol?

[16:12] <lucido> what does this mean? IPv6: wlan0: IPv6 duplicate address fe80::3a59:f9ff:fe23:125c detected!
[16:12] <minimec> samski: What's about that forum post (nr9) ./configure --with-drivers=acr122
[16:13] <samski> minimec: no, but the MIN thing was fixed from a certain revision *onwards* according to that thread
[16:13] <MonkeyDust> KI4RO  -18 is the one currently used by ubuntu
[16:13] <samski> minimec: i did make some progress with that, let me just revisit it, (ive tried SO many combinations i keep forgetting the problem i hit)
[16:13] <KI4RO> MonkeyDust: Hmmmmm...why do other systems in house indicate -34?
[16:13] <minimec> samski: So maybe it's good to add the driver of your specific device as compile otion.
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> lucido: do you use static IP?

[16:17] <lucido> ActionParsnip, I have only the auto loop entry in the interfaces file
[16:18] <KI4RO> Okay...next question...my system will not reboot or restart...screen goes black and then stops doing anything.  I can power it down and back up and everything is okay.  Suggestions?
[16:19] <minimec> samski: I have to verify where it installs. Normally it would be in /usr/lib.
[16:19] <drecute> hi all
[16:20] <samski> minimec: ill have a look i think thats about right
[16:20] <drecute> has anyone ever run zend server in a chrooted environment?
[16:20] <mydonk23> hello all
[16:20] <Mrokii> Hi. I created a 7zip-archive on Ubuntu (password-protected and file-list encrypted) and sent it to somebody who's on Windows but it seems that the archive can't be opened. She has 7zip installed but gets the message "Cannot open file as archive". Could it be that I did something wrong while creating the archive?
[16:20] <samski> minimec: i think its /usr/local/lib
[16:21] <rigorm0rtis> Hello, I'm working with UFW and I have an eth0 adapter and an eth0:0 adapter. How can I allow SSH traffic to eth0's IP address but not eth0:0's IP address?
[16:21] <netzapper> So, speaker-test works to play back sound from my device. Alsamixer shows it. However, pulseaudio volume control does not show the output device as existing. It's just literally not seeing it. Is there some way I can manually tell pulseaudio that my device exists?
[16:21] <mydonk23> i am unable to use my wireless network on backtrack 5r2. i am just wondering if anyone has a solution to this
[16:21] <minimec> samski: Ok. So it's in your default path...
[16:21] <llutz> !backtrack | mydonk23
[16:21] <samski> minimec: i have a lot of libnfc.so files there, would it be best to manually delete them out and run the build again
[16:22] <minimec> samski: Check if you can make a 'make uninstall'. Read the INSTALL file
[16:23] <samski> yes i can ill do it
[16:23] <rigorm0rtis> Nevermind, I just figured it out. To allow to eth0's IP of <IP_ADDRESS> I just run ufw allow to <IP_ADDRESS> app OpenSSH
[16:24] <mydonk23> thx ubot93
[16:24] <delac> how do I start gnome panel from terminal on background (withouth leaving the terminal open)?
[16:24] <blazemore> delac: nohup gnome-panel &
[16:25] <samski> minimec: are you sure thats in my path btw
[16:25] <delac> blazemore: ty
[16:26] <samski> minimec: im going to set prefix to /usr in the confgure stage
[16:27] <minimec> samski: You might be right... /usr/local/lib is not default path
[16:29] <samski> minimec: yea i get it to run but it goes back to the problem i was having in windows
[16:29] <samski> minimec: (its something i can supposedly fix with pcsc-lite, but ive made th changes that should fix it)
[16:30] <minimec> samski: Well good luck for your project then ... ;)
[16:32] <samski> minimec: thanks v much for your help. im gonna transfe over to my friend who knows quitea bit about pcsc now and see if he can work out why im getting this transmission error with the chip in my reader
[16:34] <minimec> samski: what device is this? A USB NFC adapter? Could be usefull in combination with my Phone.
[16:34] <samski> minimec: yes, its the acr122. it looks nice and you can get hold of it reasonably easy, but DONT buy it
[16:35] <samski> minimec: basically buy the ones they recommend on here: http://www.libnfc.org/documentation/hardware/compatibility (this list is outdated)
[16:37] <pythonirc101> I am running ubuntu inside virtualbox on win 7 and it feels a little sluggish. Any ideas how to fix this?
[16:37] <minimec> samski: THX. It's not that I would really need such a thing. I login via ssh to my nokia n9 and have NFC Bluetooth adapter for my HIFI equipment. It would be 'yet another toy'...
[16:39] <samski> minimec: yea, but it would be COOL ;)
[16:40] <leogitimate> hi, I am running ubuntu 12.04 precise pangolin,   would it be possible to remove "show desktop" as one of the options when scrolling applications via Alt+Tab ?
[16:40] <tockitj> how to use apt-* to list current libssl version ? (locally installed)
[16:40] <minimec> samski: What would be the usecase, even though I see we are going off topic. So stay short. ;)
[16:41] <Guest27041> ..
[16:42] <llutz> tockitj: dpkg -l 'libssl*'
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> tockitj: dpkg -l | grep libssl
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> pythonirc101: use lxde or xfce, it will run much smoother
[16:43] <samski> minimec: these nfc readers can be used for dumb stuff like tags or you can use them with active devices like phones (android etc). you can quickly transfer data with just a touch. like you hav your nfc bluetooh adapter, you can just touch and connect bluetooth right
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> leogitimate: I'd ask in #compiz too
[16:43] <vlad88sv>  @tockitj also "dpkg -s package" works
[16:43] <leogitimate> ActionParsnip: ok
[16:43] <tockitj> and how to remove package from local system ? :/
[16:43] <zeppo> hi guys
[16:44] <llutz> tockitj: sudo apt-get purge libssl....
[16:45] <minimec> samski: OK. I can imagine the use of these tags. There are two sorts of tags 'write once' and 'rewrite', right?
[16:46] <tockitj> hmmz.. it has active dependencies.. and i want to force reinstall (to replace with different version)
[16:46] <tockitj> how to force removal ?
[16:46] <lollko> sudo apt-get --purge remove [package]
[16:46] <zeppo> i have a rackspace ubuntu server that keeps getting unresponsive a while after reboot, can't find anything in any logs
[16:46] <lollko> or sudo aptitude remove [package]
[16:46] <llutz> lollko: that won't force anything
[16:46] <zeppo> any suggestions on how i should go about to trouble shoot that
[16:46] <minimec> samski: Yeah I touch my nfc adapter and get connected for music transmission.
[16:47] <lollko> or sudo apt-get -f remove [package]
[16:47] <llutz> lollko: that won't force anything
[16:47] <brianb> does anyone know the reason why both Firefox and Google Chrome (inc Chromium) fail to load and display adobe flash content on web pages in ubuntu 12.04?
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> brianb: can you give a pastebin of the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'    thanks
[16:48] <llutz> tockitj: get a clean deb for that version you need and it should pull the deps automagically
[16:48] <tockitj> llutz, but there is conflict - new version doesn't want to install :/
[16:49] <llutz> tockitj: and you really don't want to force anything because you might break your system
[16:49] <blackberry> hello, anyone know how to fix this issue? http://pastebin.com/tcbQZeqv
[16:50] <brianb> Also is both Firefox and google Chrome running in protected mode via the sandbox mechanism - which could be the reason why both browsers fail to play out a flash website content?
[16:50] <tockitj> llutz, here is my conflict:   libssl-dev: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (= 0.9.8k-7ubuntu8.6) but 0.9.8k-7ubuntu8.8 is to be installed
[16:50] <samski> minimec: sorry, got cut off there
[16:50] <llutz> blackberry: "file foo.tgz"
[16:50] <TheLordOfTime> blackberry, what's that supposed to be, the libraries for openssl or something?
[16:50] <narcos> Hi all. I'm installing Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on a HP microserver. After the network autoconfig I get stuck on a purple screen, with a white line down the bottom.
[16:51] <narcos> If I type, it appears in the white area, but nothing responds.
[16:51] <samski> minimec: ye, i have some reqritable tags for playing around with. you can program them to performa automatic function on ur phone. eg. i have one for going to sleep, it reduces volume, shuts down wifi and opens he alarm app
[16:51] <tockitj> llutz, its basically same libssl version.. part behind ubuntu* i don't really understand
[16:51] <samski> minimec: its all quite neat when it works :)
[16:52] <tockitj> aren't these libs the same (if it is same package & same version - what does ubuntuX.Y mean)
[16:52] <llutz> tockitj: different sub-vsersions, get the correct libssl-dev for your newer package too
[16:52] <Pici> tockitj: They refer to the Ubuntu rebuilds of the package.
[16:53] <tockitj> Pici, how come apt-get can't resolve this on its own ?
[16:53] <pjoseph> Can I connect two subnets with vlan or bridge?
[16:53] <Pici> tockitj: let me look at the backlog, I wasn't really paying attention to your complete issue.
[16:53] <vlad88sv> It's normal that applications like Firefox and Chrome take long to start after login (Aprox. 2 - 3minutes)?. I've seen that load time is much less when using Gnome Shell than Unity, may this be the reason?
[16:54] <tockitj> well this error is all i have atm
[16:55] <Pici> tockitj: What release of Ubuntu are you on?
[16:56] <minimec> samski: I would take that 'Destop Reader'... ;) http://www.identiveusa.com/contactless-reader-scl010.htm
[16:56] <Pici> tockitj: and what does apt-cache policy libssl0.9.8 libssl-dev  say?
[16:57] <tockitj> hmmz.. not sure.. this is backtrack 5R2 (ubuntu derivate)
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> tockitj: then ask in #backtrack-linux
[16:57] <DJones> !backtrack | tockitj
[16:57] <Pici> tockitj: We do not support backtrack here.  You need to get support from their channel
[16:57] <tockitj> ok, thanks anyway
[16:58] <minimec> samski: And it even works under linux. They have a linux driver in 'downloads'. nice.
[16:58] <tockitj> Pici, but this is basically apt-get issue..
[16:59] <drecute> I want to update to 5.3.6-13ubuntu3.1. I'm on 12.04
[16:59] <Pici> tockitj: but it looks like a problem with their repositories.
[16:59] <samski> minimec: nice. didnt see that listed in the libnfc devices section. im also in the UK so that aint gonna be cheap. i paid like £35 for the ar122 - didnt realise it had problems
[16:59] <drecute> How do I update to 5.3.6-13ubuntu3.1. I'm currently on ubuntu 12.04
[16:59] <tockitj> Pici, true - can i point apt-get to ubuntu repositories and let it resolve things ?
[17:00] <drecute> How do I update php5 to 5.3.6-13ubuntu3.1. I'm currently on ubuntu 12.04 php5 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.4
[17:00] <tockitj> Pici, on policy: http://pastebin.com/p1tmdqQi
[17:00] <bazhang> drecute, dont repeat
[17:00] <soomon> hi. i want to encrypt my data partition. i was thinking: disk > software raid5 > encryption > lvm > ext4. now i read that performance is much better when you do: disk > encryption > software raid 5 >lvm > ext4 -  because the system spawns 4 threads for en/decryption. is that true?
[17:00] <Pici> tockitj: We do not support backtrack.  You need to get support from them.
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> drecute: 5.3.10 is later than 5.3.6
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> drecute: 10 is later than 6
[17:01] <minimec> samski: I just started with the first 'working' device on the list and guessed that they use the same or similar chipsets in all their products... and they do...
[17:01] <tockitj> pastebin link should be accessable now
[17:02] <drecute> ActionParsnip: oh.   Maybe, *maybe* ##security can help you, but likely not if you're doing this for malicious purposes.
[17:03] <minimec> samski: definitely...
[17:03] <Hondusa> my sony vaio - installed ubuntu last night - turned off comp - this morning cant access computer
[17:04] <soomon> then you dont loose much, just reinstall :P
[17:04] <SparkyProjects1> Hi, in the middle of installing ubuntu onto a MSI U100 notebook, to run alongside windows, am using wubi, it has paused with 3 min:30secs to go
[17:04] <SparkyProjects1> stuck on .... wubi.tar.xz
[17:04] <hilo> how do I exit fullscreen mode in tsclient (the default RDP client in ubuntu)? is there a better RDP client? TSclient doesn't seem to work well at all...
[17:05] <Hondusa> is there a way to get at the hd? my wife and i put some of our files on it yesterday!
[17:05] <Hondusa> im lost and i dont want to lose these video files - family movies
[17:05] <sko> Sparky, download the ubuntu iso from ubuntu.com, make a new folder, put wubi.exe and the iso in the folder then execute wubi.exe
[17:06] <Hondusa> i only set one password - that wont work when i boot the comp
[17:06] <SparkyProjects1> sko, thanks, i'll try that
[17:06] <Hondusa> can i access the encrypted drive or am i lost?
[17:07] <noobee> my intentions are not malevolent nor benevolent but rather neutral I guess it's for my personal education... I however am the type of person to ignor the laws and follow my morals, so I guess I could see myself using this as a robin hood of sorts I guess
[17:07] <btorch> morning
[17:07] <soomon> hi. i want to encrypt my data partition. i was thinking: disk > software raid5 > encryption > lvm > ext4. now i read that performance is much better when you do: disk > encryption > software raid 5 >lvm > ext4 -  because the system spawns 4 threads for en/decryption. is that true?
[17:08] <designbybeck__> Empathy List is LARGE... no way to make is smaller contacts  in 12.10??
[17:09] <DJones> noobee: Thats not on topic for this channel, as was mentioned earlier, you may get a response in ##security
[17:09] <drecute> I running php with fpm and I want to recompile php5 deb packages with a new prefix in order to allow zend server installation. How do I do this.
[17:10] <ikonia> drecute: that's a reasonable ammount of effort
[17:10]  * jasonjang is away:
[17:11] <noobee> I was meerly responding to the responce givin to me..,. I'm not a bad guy, I dont like comming off as one that's all
[17:11] <noobee> for example I would illegaly break into a network what wasn't mine without permission if it where say a child porn site, and I thought I could shut it down permanently
[17:11] <Hondusa> any idea on how to recover a root password? or can someone explain the difference between a root password and a log in password? i set up ubuntu yesterday with a password, chose the option to encrypt the data, loaded the laptop with family videos and now i cant log into ubuntu!
[17:11] <ikonia> Hondusa: why did you set a root password
[17:11] <drecute> ikonia: yeah and it's giving me a lot of headache
[17:11] <ikonia> Hondusa: ubuntu disables the root account for a reason
[17:11] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  by default ubuntu has no root password. the first user has admin/sudo rights.
[17:11] <noobee> oh am I on topic now?
[17:11] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  you can reset that users password using differnt methods
[17:11] <skorv> can /boot hold the data for ubuntu and backtrack out should both have a /boot
[17:11] <ikonia> noobee: no
[17:11] <Hondusa> i didnt know i set a root password
[17:11] <Pici> noobee: No. This channel is for Ubuntu support only.
[17:12] <noobee> recovering a rot passwrd...
[17:12] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  then what users password are you refering to?
[17:12] <noobee> I'm using a *buntu
[17:12] <ikonia> noobee: you're not recovering a root password, you're asking for a password list and how to crack passwords
[17:12] <balloftar> Hi, I downloaded ubuntu minimal iso and installed it. What packages do I need to install for a full-working notebook (wifi, acpi etc.) system? it is going to have XFCE.
[17:12] <soomon> noobee there are plenty of manuals you can find on google which explain how to reset passwords
[17:12] <dr_willis> you can boot to single user/recovery mode and set a new password for the user in question noobee
[17:12] <Hondusa> the password i use when i log on to ubuntu - is that a root password?
[17:12] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  No... root is a specific user..
[17:12] <ikonia> drecute: I have a silly question, why do you need to recompile it to work with zend ?
[17:12] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  if you login as 'billgates' thatn thats billgates password.
[17:13] <dr_willis> and the first user made has full admin rights.
[17:13] <tockitj> how to list apt-get repositories ?
[17:13] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  why do you need to reset the password? did you forget it?
[17:13] <Hondusa> when i start up ubuntu - before i log on - im prompted for a password - my password wont work
[17:13] <drecute> ikonia: I'm running php with fpm and zend server doesn't support fpm
[17:13] <dr_willis> Befor you login?  what does the screen say EXACTLY?
[17:13] <drecute> ikonia: so my php5 install crashes everytime because of this
[17:14] <Hondusa> i remember the password - but it doesnt work - even when i load the live cd - i cant access the hd because its encrypted and my password wont work
[17:14] <soomon> hondusa try switching y and z maybe it was the wrong keyboard layout
[17:14] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  your encrypted home pass phrase is NOT the same as a login password...
[17:14] <Hondusa> and im new to linux so im a bit confused
[17:14] <Hondusa> ok
[17:14] <dr_willis> so now we are getting to the actual problem. You set up an encrypted home?
[17:14] <ikonia> drecute: ok, so I have a solution you may find easier, but also sloppier
[17:14] <Hondusa> correct
[17:15] <ikonia> drecute: how "professional" do you want to be I guess it depends on the purpose of this machine)
[17:15] <peyam> join #ubuntu-se
[17:15] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  and your passphrase for that is known?
[17:15] <Hondusa> i thought the two were set as the same
[17:15] <drecute> ikonia: the purpose of the machine is a build server
[17:15] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  Not that i am aware of. I never use encrypted homes.. causes to many issues
[17:15] <ikonia> drecute: ok - this "may" be acceptable to you
[17:15] <Hondusa> i only remember using one password/ passphrase durring install
[17:15] <drecute> running jenkins, subversion, java, python
[17:16] <dr_willis> they could be set to be the same.. i guess
[17:16] <ikonia> drecute: have you considered building a php install in /opt (for example) to run zend again
[17:16] <ikonia> keep it totally isolated from your machine machine
[17:16] <dr_willis> Perhaps others can help you in mounting your encrypted home from a live cd to verify.
[17:16] <ikonia> sorry, main file system
[17:16] <drecute> ikonia: yeah I'm considering it, but how to modify the php5 source files is my concern
[17:16] <Hondusa> liaded live cd - attempt to mount encrypted home - password prompt - nothing
[17:16] <ikonia> drecute: why do you need to mofidy the php source files ?
[17:17] <ikonia> drecute: sorry if I missed that in the explination
[17:17] <balloftar> Hi, I downloaded ubuntu minimal iso and installed it. What packages do I need to install for a full-working notebook (wifi, acpi etc.) system? it is going to have XFCE.
[17:17] <drecute> ikonia: i want to prefix the compilation with --prefix
[17:17] <ikonia> drecute: you don't modify the source for that
[17:17] <drecute> ikonia: i want to prefix the compilation with --prefix /some-new-dir
[17:17] <ikonia> drecute: that is a configure option
[17:18] <ikonia> drecute: eg: ./configure --preifx=/opt/php --sysconfdir=/opt/etc etc etc
[17:18] <drecute> ikonia: don't I need php5 source first?
[17:18] <ikonia> drecute: yes, you do
[17:18] <Hondusa> so am i left with no solution? if the disk is encrypted can i access it somehow?
[17:19] <dr_willis> Hondusa:  there may be ways to moiunt it via the cli to give you more info./feedback/error messages.. I dont use the feature. so i dont know how its done.
