[00:01] <netlar> eeee: I just cannot find a comprehensive guide for the Dash
[00:01] <snotch> netlar: it's a dock.
[00:01] <netlar> snotch: you talking about the launcher panel?
[00:02] <eeee> netlar: the sources are pretty self-explanatory
[00:02] <eeee> netlar: to be honest it's the first time i've used it
[00:02] <eeee> you write the search, and then click which source and it shows the results
[00:02] <snotch> netlar: u want cartoon instructions?
[00:03] <netlar> snotch: Stop it, do not be like that
[00:04] <netlar> Anyway, someone in a bad mood
[00:04] <eeee> netlar: if you want it to always search specific sources, you can select them first
[00:04] <eeee> just noticed that
[00:05] <eeee> (search field has to be empty)
[00:05] <netlar> eeee: Well I will just keep experimenting with it
[00:06] <snotch> I some times
[00:06] <wafflejock> hehe netlar think we just can't point you somewhere like you said no single clear doc that just focuses on the Dash, it's a nice to have for those who like it but don't think anyone has taken the time to do a full on document it's usage... if you're a heavy user perhaps it's something you could post online at least as a starting point to get other to contribute thoughts/info on it
[00:07] <wafflejock> http://www.howtogeek.com/113330/how-to-master-ubuntus-unity-desktop-8-things-you-need-to-know/ <-- here's an article that covers some basics but sure you probably already know all this
[00:07] <netlar> wafflejock: Thanks, I may look into do that
[00:09] <TJ-> netlar: This developer documentation may help you: http://developer.ubuntu.com/scopes/
[00:10] <netlar> TJ-: Thanks

[00:11] <Glycan> Can someone help me?
[00:11] <snotch> Sure Glycan
[00:11] <HikaruBG> when I log-in to Ubuntu, the log-in screen dissapears and only the background image remains on, but no task-bar, no icons, no menus nothing. Only the background image and the mouse pointer.
[00:11] <cynicallemon> Glycan: theres a gui tool for that to make it "easier" - arandr
[00:12] <Glycan> cynicallemon: it doesn't work
[00:13] <tortib> Hello everyone!  How can I disable SSH forwarding in sshd_config ?
[00:13] <Glycan> It does not actually activate the display
[00:13] <HikaruBG> I have Desktop machine with i7 CPU, 16 GB Ram and NVIDIA EVGA GTX 590 Classified vireo card. with the NVIDIA DRIVERS version 331.67
[00:13] <HikaruBG> I had no problems like this before
[00:13] <HikaruBG> anyone?
[00:14] <TJ-> Glycan: "xrandr --output $OUTPUT --auto"
[00:16] <HikaruBG> anyone on the ubuntu login problem?
[00:16] <HikaruBG> the ubuntu version is 14.04
[00:16] <wafflejock> HikaruBG: TJ is trying to help respond to TJ-
[00:17] <wafflejock> HikaruBG: oh sorry was talking to Glycan my bad got this troll messing up my brain
[00:17] <teololtoy> what's the default gtk program for making kde apps look like gnome apps?
[00:17] <teololtoy> ie running kde stuff in gnome and having them look more gnome
[00:17] <HikaruBG> :) its ok wafflejock, i just need some help here
[00:17] <HikaruBG> :)
[00:17] <wafflejock> !nomodeset > HikaruBG
[00:17] <wafflejock> that might help
[00:17] <wafflejock> at least to debug some
[00:18] <eeee> HikaruBG: maybe try to reinstall lightdm ?
[00:19] <HikaruBG> eeee, how do I do that? sudo apt-get purge lightdm && sudo apt-get install lightdm ?
[00:20] <eeee> HikaruBG: sudo apt-get install --reinstall lightdm
[00:20] <HikaruBG> thanks, eeee
[00:20] <Glycan> wafflejock: doesn't work
[00:20] <eeee> np
[00:20] <jcoglan> HikaruBG: fyi I installed gdm and have so far not had a problem logging in. Previously my login screen on 14.04 would block keyboard and mouse input. However, locking the screen and suspending the machine still use the original login screen, which I am told is Ubuntu’s clone lookalike of the lightdm login, and that consistently fails and I have to hard-reboot.
[00:21] <eeee> HikaruBG: you might have to do it from the terminal, sudo service lightdm stop
[00:21] <eeee> install --reinstall , then sudo service lightdm start
[00:21] <jcoglan> Acutually, I mispoke, screen lock used something that looks like lightdm but it works, whereas resuming from suspend I’ve never been able to log in.
[00:22] <HikaruBG> I am on it eeee. thanks. I will let you know what is going on in a sec
[00:22] <Glycan> TJ-: doesn't work
[00:22] <scratchy> HikaruBG: it's a bug. Use a PPA to upgrade
[00:22] <OerHeks> rm -rf .compiz-1 Source: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[00:23] <TJ-> Glycan: "doesn't work" is not helpful; show us the output of commands and pastebin the output of "xrandr -q" in particular
[00:23] <HikaruBG> eeee, same thing after stop/reinstall/start of lightdm
[00:23] <scratchy> HikaruBG: it's a bug. Use a PPA to upgrade
[00:23] <HikaruBG> scratchy, which ppa to use for upgrade?
[00:23] <HikaruBG> I have all updated and upgraded
[00:23] <HikaruBG> no new upgrades pending
[00:24] <scratchy> Search for unity PPA
[00:24] <Glycan> TJ-: the command you gave me has no output
[00:24] <Glycan> and does nothing
[00:25] <HikaruBG> scratchy, how to see which version of unity i currently have?
[00:25] <OerHeks> scratchy, proposing a ppa, tell him it is not supported here, and i posted a solution for some users >  rm -rf .compiz-1 : http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[00:25] <OerHeks> HikaruBG, ^ ^
[00:27] <jcoglan> scratchy: Does this mean that Ubuntu 14.04 is not going to fix this issue, or is PPA a temporary solution?
[00:27] <scratchy> HikaruBG: I have ati graphics card
[00:27] <scratchy> HikaruBG: do u have ati graphics card
[00:28] <Glycan> TJ-: the output of xrandr -q (the same as just xrandr) is http://paste.ubuntu.com/8135835/
[00:28] <OerHeks> scratchy, he started with the specs of his machine, nvidia
[00:28] <scratchy> HikaruBG: Try:
[00:28] <scratchy> ...$ sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[00:28] <scratchy> ...$ ccsm
[00:28] <tortib> Does anyone know why I'm receiving this error when running `apt-get install zsh` ? update-alternatives: warning: skip creation of /usr/share/man/man1/rzsh.1.gz because associated file /usr/share/man/man1/zsh.1.gz (of link group rzsh) doesn't exist
[00:29] <tortib> it's not installing the man page for zsh
[00:29] <scratchy> HikaruBG: in the manager window go to Preferences (left pane) in the profile section select "unity" instead of "Default" in the drop-down menu.
[00:29] <HikaruBG> OK I am trying it now
[00:30] <HikaruBG> somehow I can't see the manager screen
[00:30] <HikaruBG> do I have to be logged in?
[00:30] <OerHeks> tortib, known issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zsh/+bug/1242108
[00:31] <HikaruBG> GTKWarning: could not open display
[00:31] <tortib> OerHeks: thx
[00:31] <TJ-> Glycan: The other displays are disconnected, so they can't be enabled
[00:31] <scratchy> HikaruBG: Did you install compiz
[00:31] <fridaynext> here's my /etc/exports, but when I try to connect to my shares from OSX 10.9, it's slow to connect. Any idea why? http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=9hPvZDgX
[00:32] <HikaruBG> yes
[00:32] <HikaruBG> scratchy, i have installes it.
[00:35] <HikaruBG> when I type $ export DISPLAY:=0 it returns -bash: export: 'DISPLAY:=0' not a valid identifier
[00:35] <Ben64> DISPLAY=:0
[00:36] <scratchy> HikaruBG: it's easier to upgrade nvidia using PPA
[00:37] <HikaruBG> http://pastie.org/9499884
[00:37] <HikaruBG> scratchy, check this out http://pastie.org/9499884
[00:37] <OerHeks> HikaruBG, please see this post, it is so easy https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zsh/+bug/1242108
[00:37] <scratchy> HikaruBG: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[00:37] <scratchy> sudo apt-get update
[00:37] <OerHeks> err http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[00:38] <OerHeks> scratchy, no need for that, as it have worked.
[00:38] <eeee> OerHeks: his issue is with lightdm
[00:39] <eeee> ( before he logs in theres no window for logging in )
[00:39] <OerHeks> no, after logging in
[00:40] <scratchy> OerHeks: he cannot run the gui for compiz. He needs to install unity 2d. Its to much
[00:40] <eeee> oh, i thought he said something else
[00:41] <eeee> HikaruBG: try OerHeks suggestion
[00:41] <HikaruBG> thanks guys, I will try OerHeks suggestion then
[00:41] <scratchy> Update to nvidia PPA then upgrade
[00:42] <Ben64> ppa is not necessary at all
[00:44] <HikaruBG> ok Guys, here is the result of the ccsm command: http://pastie.org/9499893
[00:44] <HikaruBG> and still no manager screen
[00:44] <eeee> HikaruBG: try dconf reset -f /org/compiz/; setsid unity
[00:44] <eeee> that'll reset unity
[00:44] <HikaruBG> OK
[00:45] <eeee> HikaruBG: just to be sure, cause you're saying no manager screen, you're talking about after you login right?
[00:45] <eeee> meaning you get a manager screen, then you login, but theres no launcher or anything right?
[00:46] <TJ-> eeee: "Greeter" is what presents the log-in
[00:46] <HikaruBG> no, no manager screen appears. just the login screen. The ccsm command comes back with the message I pasted http://pastie.org/9499893
[00:46] <HikaruBG> I am trying to reset unity now as you told me
[00:46] <HikaruBG> I will create another pastie with this errors.
[00:47] <HikaruBG> it says Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0"
[00:47] <eeee> TJ-: unity-greeter ?
[00:47] <scratchy> Everybody shut up for a moment.
[00:47] <HikaruBG> OK
[00:47] <TJ-> eeee: lightdm-greeter mostly
[00:48] <scratchy> HikaruBG: Did this happen after you installed nvidia proprietary driver
[00:48] <TJ-> eeee: on KDE its lightdm-kde-greeter
[00:48] <HikaruBG> yes scratchy, AFTER that
[00:48] <HikaruBG> scratchy, but I have installed the NVIDIA drivers long ago
[00:48] <HikaruBG> and it was running fine
[00:49] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[00:49] <scratchy> HikaruBG: Did you just upgrade ubuntu then to a newer version.
[00:50] <HikaruBG> yes
[00:50] <scratchy> HikaruBG: is that when the problem started
[00:51] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8135980/
[00:51] <OerHeks> i have seen this before just after a regular update with kernel
[00:51] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X"
[00:51] <HikaruBG> OerHeks, this is exactly how it have to be happened...
[00:51] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I have no idea what is this means....
[00:52] <TJ-> HikaruBG: You've got a bad xorg.conf is my guess: "pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[00:52] <OerHeks> loggin in: ctrl alt F1, then perform rm -rf .compiz-1 #logout & login again
[00:53] <HikaruBG> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8135983/
[00:53] <TJ-> OerHeks: It's more fundamental than that; GLX is being shot down by bad config
[00:53] <HikaruBG> OerHeks, I will do it now
[00:53] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup"
[00:54] <TJ-> HikaruBG: And then "sudo service lightdm restart"
[00:54] <HikaruBG> OK
[00:54] <scratchy> HikaruBG: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[00:55] <scratchy> sudo apt-get update
[00:55] <fridaynext> I have "rw" in my nfs share, but I can't write to the share - how do I enable the ability to write to it?
[00:55] <HikaruBG> TJ-, it dodn't work backing up the xorg.conf and restarting the lightdm service
[00:56] <TJ-> HikaruBG: That's fine, we're trying to reduce the possibilities. Show me "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" now we have a new one
[00:56] <HikaruBG> OK
[00:56] <HikaruBG> just a sec
[00:56] <scratchy> HikaruBG: can you get into a terminal or command line
[00:56] <HikaruBG> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136028/
[00:57] <scratchy> It's a nvidia problem.
[00:57] <HikaruBG> scratchy, yes
[00:57] <inder_gt> can any1 please tell me what the better way to do indicator applets is, pygtk or pygi
[00:57] <scratchy> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
[00:57] <scratchy> sudo apt-get update
[00:57] <scratchy> sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:57] <scratchy> Then reboot
[00:57] <HikaruBG> scratchy, CTRL+ALT+F1 and also SSH from my laptop work
[00:57] <TJ-> scratchy: Installing a PPA is *not* the way to fix an existing issue. First, sort out the existing driver fault
[00:58] <scratchy> Put them commands in then reboot. Problem solved HikaruBG
[00:58] <HikaruBG> OK scratchy I am doing it. and will let you know in a bit
[00:58] <scratchy> TJ-: Yes it is. He wants a working system
[01:00] <odsent> hey there, im having a keyboard problem
[01:02] <HikaruBG> scratchy, it didn't solve it
[01:02] <OerHeks> y
[01:02] <odsent> i just got a new keyboard, meaning i have  to go  through  the old tradition  of rearranging  the keys  for dvorak
[01:02] <HikaruBG> same thing
[01:02] <TJ-> HikaruBG: The problem is you've got a manually installed nvidia driver version 331.67, rather than one of the Ubuntu-packaged drivers, and the manually installed driver hasn't correctly installed the core GLX X server driver
[01:02] <odsent> but the damn F key doesn't  fit
[01:03] <HikaruBG> TJ-, if I reinstall the NVIDIA driver will it fix it?
[01:03] <HikaruBG> it wirked when I first installed it?
[01:03] <HikaruBG> worked*
[01:03] <odsent> help plz
[01:03] <scratchy> HikaruBG: u need to install gnome 3 then. Unity is trashed on your system so you can finally get the compiz gui working
[01:04] <HikaruBG> scratchy, how to see which version of gnome i currently have?
[01:04] <TJ-> HikaruBG: The best way to tackle this is to first de-install the manual nvidia package, and then remove any stray ubuntu packages that may conflict so the system only has the open-source nouveau driver in place, *then* install the official ubuntu package "nvidia-331-updates"
[01:04] <scratchy> HikaruBG: ubuntu does not install gnome it uses a pig called unity.
[01:05] <TJ-> scratchy: There is nothing wrong with Unity, please don't give out misinformation. The problem is clear in the Xorg log-file: GLX driver not loaded
[01:05] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Let's first discover what Ubuntu/nvidia packages there may be installed: "dpkg -l 'nvidia*' | pastebinit"
[01:06] <HikaruBG> OK just a sec TJ-
[01:06] <eeee> HikaruBG: can you please ls -l /etc/X11 | pastebinit
[01:06] <HikaruBG> I went ahead and started reinstalling the NVIDIA 331 driver...  maybe stupid of me, but let me finish that and I will do everything you guys say
[01:07] <scratchy> TJ-: get him running so he can run the gui for compiz. Tell him how to install gnome fall back 2d and how to log in with it at log in screen
[01:08] <HikaruBG> scratchy, so you suggest I don't use unity anymore, but GNOME?
[01:08] <odsent> hhelp
[01:08] <HikaruBG> isn't that possible using tasksel ?
[01:08] <odsent> what is a good channel for general techh support?
[01:08] <HikaruBG> reinstall completed - now let's see results
[01:08] <OerHeks> TJ-, i wonder about his kernel  3.13.0-35-generic, as my current kernel is 3.13.0-34
[01:08] <somsip> !alis | odsent
[01:09] <wafflejock> odsent: what kind of help are you looking for it sounds like you have a hardware issue with rearranging your keys?
[01:09] <odsent> yea
[01:09] <odsent> its taking me a long time to type so bear with me
[01:09] <OerHeks> try ##hardware
[01:10] <HikaruBG> OK guys - after NVIDIA Drivers reinstall the result is: When I login - it displays the background image AND the desktop icons, but still no taskbar
[01:10] <HikaruBG> TJ-,  I am with you again
[01:10] <odsent> you know how on your QWERTY keyboard, the J and F keys have the tiny ridge on them?
[01:11] <scratchy> http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/install-gnome-classic-desktop-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[01:11] <HikaruBG> uninstall the NVIDIA driver say you?
[01:11] <odsent> on my logitech keyboard, those keys don't fit into other spots
[01:11] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136123/
[01:12] <odsent> this world is not dvorak friendly
[01:12] <OerHeks> odent that is beyond the scope of this channel, try ##hardware
[01:12] <HikaruBG> check the result of the dpkg -l 'nvidia*'
[01:12] <wafflejock> odsent: hehe yeah I don't think so... but seems worth it to just buy a dvorak keyboard anyhow if that's your preference, why spend the time fiddling with keys? either way as OerHeks said you'll have more luck if you need help on the hardware in a channel focused on it
[01:13] <scratchy> HikaruBG: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/install-gnome-classic-desktop-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[01:13] <HikaruBG> Thanks scratchy, I will look into that, just let's see what TJ- will say about the nvidia packages
[01:14] <TJ-> OerHeks: Yes, It's from trusty-proposed
[01:15] <TJ-> HikaruBG: sorry about that - had to visit the bathroom :)
[01:15] <HikaruBG> TJ-, "The best way to tackle this is to first de-install the manual nvidia package, and then remove any stray ubuntu packages that may conflict so the system only has the open-source nouveau driver in place, *then* install the official ubuntu package "nvidia-331-updates"" How do you propose we do that?
[01:15] <HikaruBG> sudo apt-get purge nvidia-common ?
[01:15] <HikaruBG> sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
[01:16] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Well, the good news is there aren't currently any Ubuntu/nvidia packages so as long as we can cleanly remove the nvidia package you installed manually, it should be plain sailing to install the Ubuntu package afterwards
[01:16] <HikaruBG> TJ, so purge nvidia * should do it?
[01:17] <kerrick> Is upgrading from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS supported?
[01:17] <kerrick> not mentioned at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:17] <veryhappy> kerrick: would say it
[01:17] <TJ-> HikaruBG: No, as I said, there are no official nvidia packages to remove. Just the package you installed manually
[01:17] <eeee> kerrick: yes, sudo do-release-upgrade will get you there
[01:17] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Is the nvidia-331.67 installer ".run" file in your "~/Downloads/" directory?
[01:17] <hesco> Does ubuntu have a scheme for providing consistent uid and gids to application users?  Or do they get assigned in the order in which they were created?
[01:18] <HikaruBG> TJ-,  i just ran the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-331.67.run file from the terminal and it installed it
[01:18] <HikaruBG> is there a script to uninstall it?
[01:18] <scratchy> TJ-: big chance header files are not installed.
[01:18] <veryhappy> hey guys, today i made an installation of ubuntu 14.04 on an external drive, unfortunately due to the installation type that i find more clean (minimal system) i just have command tools to get me into the wireless network (wpa), this is not my home place, i'm in vacations now.
[01:18] <kerrick> eeee, thanks
[01:19] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, go to the directory that contains that file, then you need to do "sudo ./ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-331.67.run --uninstall"
[01:19] <hesco> Lost my connection, so trying this again:  Does ubuntu have a scheme for providing consistent uid and gids to application users?  Or do they get assigned in the order in which they were created?
[01:19] <TJ-> scratchy: kernel headers are always installed, to support DKMS; do you mean some other headers?
[01:20] <scratchy> TJ-: use wild cards. Multiple drivers he installed.
[01:20] <malachi_constant> Hi all. I have an HP Proliant DL320 Gen8 v2 with ubuntu installed, and the damned thing will not take an IP address.
[01:20] <malachi_constant> I mean, I can assign one statically, but the link says NO-CARRIER even though the link light is lit on both sides.
[01:20] <HikaruBG> TJ-, uninstall is done
[01:21] <HikaruBG> now reboot or install the new packages?
[01:21] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, now lets do a search for any stray or unexpected nvidia versions, too
[01:21] <scratchy> TJ-: not true. Headers we're a bug concerning nvidia
[01:21] <HikaruBG> TJ-, ok let's do it! :) how? :)
[01:21] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "sudo find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ -type f -name 'nvidia*'  "
[01:21] <HikaruBG> OK thanks
[01:22] <HikaruBG> /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidiafb.ko
[01:22] <TJ-> HikaruBG: hopefully you only get the 1 line?
[01:22] <kerrick> eeee, is the process any different for Ubuntu Gnome?
[01:22] <HikaruBG> yes - this is it
[01:24] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Next check - the X org drivers: "ls -d /usr/lib/nvidia*"
[01:24] <HikaruBG> TJ-, one line again: "/usr/lib/nvidia"
[01:25] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Good :)
[01:26] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Now, last check before we install the Ubuntu/nvidia driver packages:  "grep '^deb ' /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*} | pastebinit"
[01:26] <Basketball> is it safe to tell someone on google plus my uname -a

[01:27] <HikaruBG> sorry I have added these ppa-s that was proposed to me earlier
[01:27] <HikaruBG> do you want me remove them?
[01:27] <eeee> Basketball: only if it the second date ;)
[01:28] <eeee> *it's
[01:28] <Basketball> eeee,  no random person asked for us to share it

[01:29] <odsent> f.lux turns you screen orange to help increase melatonin at night
[01:29] <odsent> i'm also wearing orange glasses
[01:29] <odsent> the word "orange" looks weird now
[01:30] <odsent> because i'm looking at it so much
[01:31] <TJ-> HikaruBG: The xorg-edgers PPA is fine, don't worry. We're going to install the latest driver from there: "sudo apt-get install nvidia-343"
[01:32] <TJ-> HikaruBG: this will cause a new kernel driver to be compiled by the DKMS system; after that we'll see if we can get it loaded without the system needing to be rebooted
[01:32] <HikaruBG> TJ-, OK I am doing it
[01:33] <TJ-> HikaruBG: whilst that is running, if you can get to a 2nd terminal, can you do "lsmod | grep 'nvidia '" and tell us the last number on the output line, if there is any output
[01:34] <TJ-> HikaruBG: that's "lsmod | grep 'nvidia '   "  ... note the space after the word "nvidia"
[01:35] <HikaruBG> TJ-, no output lines on that
[01:35] <HikaruBG> I have noticed the cpase as well TJ-
[01:35] <HikaruBG> TJ-, the install have completed
[01:35] <TJ-> HikaruBG: no output means no existing nvidia driver stuck in memory, means we can easily load the new module
[01:35] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I am listening
[01:36] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK ... "sudo modprobe nvidia-343"
[01:36] <HikaruBG> the sudo service lightdm start ?
[01:36] <HikaruBG> OK
[01:36] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Then "lsmod | grep nvidia" and you should see it listed
[01:36] <HikaruBG> my bad - immediately TJ-
[01:36] <HikaruBG> TJ-, lsmod | grep 'nvidia ' -> nvidia              11108654  0
[01:36] <netlar> another dumb question, is there an application that helps you change application a single application icon?
[01:37] <TJ-> HikaruBG: looking good ... go ahead and start lightdm
[01:37] <HikaruBG> OK
[01:37] <TJ-> HikaruBG: if it fails, then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[01:38] <eeee> Basketball: it displays info about your kernel, architecture, and hostname, and some other stuff
[01:39] <netlar> The icons for application shortcuts are always so blurry
[01:39] <HikaruBG> TJ-, after I ran the lightdm, login screen appeared - I logged in, now I have the desktop icons and the background screen, also the myWeather ICdicator loaded and dosplayed it's message but no taskbar and no sidebar with launchpad icons
[01:39] <HikaruBG> basically - I have only the icons now, TJ-
[01:40] <HikaruBG> TJ-, and eclipse starts .... when I start it from the desktop icon
[01:40] <eeee> netlar: no idea about the application, but you can change icons in /usr/share/applications/ the .desktop files contain the icon info
[01:40] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, the main thing is the 3D accelerated driver is working which was the primary issue.
[01:41] <HikaruBG> TJ-, OK, now how to understand what is not working?
[01:41] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Now lets ask OerHeks to come back in, he is knowledgeable on how to kick Unity/Compiz when they need reseting
[01:41] <netlar> eeee: Ok, I saw that, was hoping for a simpler way , thanks
[01:41] <HikaruBG> OerHeks, still here? :)
[01:42] <TJ-> HikaruBG: This was the link OerHeks provided earlier:
[01:42] <TJ->     nvidia-173:i386
[01:42] <apb1963> I've NFS exported my root filesystem (from host/server blue to client orange), which of course includes /mnt/  which itself mounts a secondary drive; i.e. it's a different filesystem than /  So orange sees the mount as /mnt/blue/. Although I'm able to see the directory tree under /mnt/blue/mnt/ which has additional subdirs (i.e. /mnt/blue/mnt/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/) the files that should be under ../h/ are not there.  server is ubuntu 12.04, client is ubuntu 14.04
[01:42] <TJ-> HikaruBG: This was the link OerHeks provided earlier: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears
[01:43] <apb1963> Hey TJ- :)  Figured out my wireless problem.
[01:43] <HikaruBG> yep - TJ- do you want me to try this again?
[01:43] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Yes
[01:44] <TJ-> apb1963: Well done - what was it?
[01:44] <apb1963> TJ-: firmware upgrade
[01:44] <HikaruBG> OK TJ- I have the manager screen running
[01:44] <HikaruBG> now what?
[01:45] <apb1963> TJ-: it's even _almost_ stable.  I get dropouts from time to time, but at least I'm on wireless.
[01:45] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Can you see the CCSM on tty7?
[01:46] <TJ-> HikaruBG: According to the guide, its' then step 5: "Find the Unity plugin. Enable it."
[01:46] <Basketball> eeee,  no personal info right
[01:46] <eeee> Basketball: no, other than your computer's hostname
[01:46] <TJ-> apb1963: firmware? oh wow, that isn't something you expect these days!
[01:46] <HikaruBG> yes, TJ- , i have done the steps of the screen and now rebooting
[01:47] <eeee> (basketball@hostname:~$)
[01:47] <eeee> whatever hostname is
[01:47] <Basketball> actually Linux harris-HP-Pavilion-dv6000-RP296UA-ABA 3.13.0-34-generic #60~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 13 15:57:32 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[01:47] <eeee> what a lovely hostname
[01:47] <eeee> lol
[01:47] <apb1963> TJ-: Well, it wouldn't be the first time.... so I'm not overly surprised.
[01:47] <eeee> i hope you have unlimited scrollback...
[01:47] <eeee> :)
[01:48] <Basketball> eeee,  i want to change my icon for spotify manually i was able to change the locaton of the icon for the dash and side launcher but i cant figure out how to change it in the panel
[01:48] <malachi_constant> Hi guys. I'm running 14.04 and I seem to not be able to get an ip address.
[01:48] <TJ-> apb1963: For the symptoms I am - being able to ping over wlan0 whilst eth0 was up, but lose it as soon as eth0 went down - that's crazy!
[01:48] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Wired or Wireless network?
[01:48] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Wired.
[01:49] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Using Network Manager, or a manual entry in "/etc/network/interfaces" ?
[01:49] <apb1963> TJ-: yeah, they were bizarre symptoms.... which is kind of what doesn't surprise me that it was firmware
[01:49] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Manual entry, no network manager to my knowledge.
[01:49] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Can you "pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces" ?
[01:49] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Yessir.
[01:50] <Loshki> TJ-: eth0 going up and down will mess with the routing table, so it's plausible...
[01:50] <TJ-> Loshki: R.T. was fine, that was the weird part
[01:50] <TJ-> Loshki: We spend several hours diagnosing it last week
[01:51] <malachi_constant> TJ-: http://pastebin.com/mZnGcYVQ
[01:52] <malachi_constant> The second part is stuff I commented out because it failed.
[01:52] <TJ-> malachi_constant: syntax error: "iface dhcp inet dhcp" should be "iface em1 inet dhcp"
[01:52] <malachi_constant> Ooooh.
[01:52] <malachi_constant> Let me see here.
[01:52] <Loshki> good catch, TJ-
[01:53] <apb1963> TJ-: well, it wasn't exactly fine.... I had to adjust it.  This was why bringing eth0 back up did not restore the connection... until I adjusted the default gateway.
[01:53] <malachi_constant> TJ-: should I do /etc/init.d/networking restart now?
[01:53] <TJ-> malachi_constant: "sudo ifup em1"
[01:53] <malachi_constant> Okay, dhclient is sending out DHCPDISCOVERs.
[01:54] <TJ-> apb1963: We had metrics on the routes didn't we? wlan0 should have kicked in when the eth0 default disappeared
[01:54] <HikaruBG> TJ-, bad news. Unity Plugin is Enabled and still only the background image AND the desktop icons.
[01:54] <HikaruBG> nothing changes
[01:54] <HikaruBG> nothing changed
[01:54] <eeee> HikaruBG: can you please ls -l /etc/X11
[01:54] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK... don't worry, we'll work through the log-files to figure it out.  "pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors" please
[01:54] <malachi_constant> TJ-: It seems not to be working. ethtool shows 'Link detected: no'
[01:55] <malachi_constant> This is extremely odd to me, because it's the second cable I've tried, and everything else seems to work.
[01:55] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Does the interface kernel driver need firmware?
[01:55] <apb1963> TJ-: Right.  But my only point is that the routing table didn't fix itself... it had to be manually adjusted.
[01:55] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Ooh, possibly, it's a broadcom netextreme.
[01:55] <TJ-> malachi_constant: check /var/log/dmesg for clues
[01:55] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136358/
[01:56] <HikaruBG> eeee, just a sec....
[01:56] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Thank you!
[01:56] <apb1963> oh I was just reading less than flattering things about broadcom on the openWRT wiki.
[01:56] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Hmm. The driver seems to be loaded. This server, incidentally, was working fine before I brought it out here to the installation site. tg3 driver is loaded.
[01:56] <HikaruBG> eeee, here is your request: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136365/
[01:57] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Really? Is the switch port alive?
[01:57] <malachi_constant> dmesg also says: "IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): em1 link is not ready"
[01:57] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Yessir, shows a link light.
[01:57] <TJ-> malachi_constant: can you "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg" ?
[01:58] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, nothing to show in that log-file... hang on whilst I figure out where the other one is
[01:58] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Thank you so much :))))
[01:58] <malachi_constant> TJ-: I can, will be a minute, sneakernetting it.
[01:59] <HikaruBG> ok TJ- I am waiting
[01:59] <TJ-> malachi_constant: hehehe
[02:00] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, can you try restarting lightdm so you're at the Greeter log-in, then try logging in as Guest?
[02:00] <TJ-> HikaruBG: We need to isolate whether this is a system-wide issue, or just your regular user account profile settings
[02:01] <HikaruBG> OK
[02:02] <Basketball> eeee,  i want to change my icon for spotify manually i was able to change the locaton of the icon for the dash and side launcher but i cant figure out how to change it in the panel
[02:02] <HikaruBG> TJ-,  the Guest User logged in as normal - all works
[02:03] <TJ-> HikaruBG: That's great - we now know it is something in the user profile
[02:03] <HikaruBG> I tried this a while ago but it didn't work... apparently when we installed the new driver we fixed something
[02:03] <HikaruBG> TJ-, OK - where do you suggest we look ?
[02:04] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log"
[02:04] <HikaruBG> TJ-, just FYI I have backed up just now .Xauthority file and restartes the lightdm....  still nothing.
[02:05] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I'm flying blind now because I use KDE not Unity, but I'm looking at how unity can be made to generate logs
[02:05] <HikaruBG> sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log
[02:05] <HikaruBG> just a sec
[02:05] <HikaruBG> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136414/

[02:07]  * apb1963 takes a number while standing in line.
[02:07] <TJ-> malachi_constant: are you sure it's not em2 the cable is plugged into?
[02:08] <purevulcan> Can anyone help me troubleshoot minecraft being funny
[02:09] <cynicallemon> purevulcan: we can all be funny about that
[02:10] <TJ-> HikaruBG: show me "sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log" please
[02:10] <purevulcan> lol everytime I try to start it, it says something about liblwgjl.so and stack guard
[02:11] <malachi_constant> TJ-: I will make sure.
[02:11] <cynicallemon> purevulcan: try downloading and reinstall mc client
[02:11] <tortib> Hello, I wanted to know what's the best method to protect my system from fork bombs?
[02:12] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136475/
[02:12] <purevulcan> I did that already and I also already updated my libs
[02:12] <tortib> purevulcan: what's the problem?
[02:12] <malachi_constant> TJ-: well, I just switched the ports, so let's find out. :-)
[02:13] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Well, we've found all the errors!
[02:13] <purevulcan> tortib: It will start then crash and give something about liblwgjl.so and stack guard
[02:13] <tortib> huh
[02:14] <malachi_constant> TJ-: !!
[02:14] <tortib> purevulcan: is this minecraft client or server?
[02:14] <purevulcan> ftb client
[02:14] <malachi_constant> TJ-: When I plugged it in, it said in dmesg: "Link is up at 1000Mpbs, full duplex"
[02:14] <malachi_constant> I haven't seen that before!
[02:14] <TJ-> malachi_constant: Sorted :)
[02:14] <apb1963> malachi_constant: isn't TJ- awesome?
[02:14] <TJ-> malachi_constant: You just need a stanza for em2 in 'interfaces'
[02:14] <malachi_constant> TJ-: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
[02:15] <tortib> purevulcan: are you running mods?
[02:15] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I can see them as well...  how do you want to proceed?
[02:15] <malachi_constant> apb1963: TJ- *IS* amazing!
[02:15] <malachi_constant> TJ-: THANK YOU!
[02:15] <purevulcan> tortib: yes, im trying to run the unleashed pack in the ftb client
[02:15] <apb1963> malachi_constant:  I'm starting a fan club... hmmm.... maybe even a channel :)
[02:16] <tortib> purevulcan: can't help you there, but you can try irc.esper.net there is tons of minecraft channels there for help such as #minecrafthelp
[02:16] <malachi_constant> TJ-: I added one! It works! :D
[02:16] <malachi_constant> TJ-: You're fantastic.
[02:16] <malachi_constant> I've spent so much time on this that this server room has become my office away from office.
[02:16] <apb1963> purevulcan: You might also want to get the exact error message as that would be very helpful.
[02:16] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I'm trying to figure out which are the critical ones and which are fluff we can ignore
[02:17] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I see...
[02:17] <apb1963> TJ-: don't knock fluff.  Some of my best girlfriends are fluffy.
[02:17] <wafflejock> hah nice
[02:18] <TJ-> apb1963: Same here.... but rabbits :)
[02:18] <apb1963> TJ-: I'm not big on beastiality... not that there's anything wrong with that.  *cough*
[02:19] <wafflejock> you mean furries? not fluffies
[02:19] <apb1963> TJ-: I used to train guard bunnies, since you mention it.
[02:19] <rww> back to support, folks
[02:20] <Beldar> so many offensive parts to so many ;)
[02:20] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I'm reading the Unity source-code now, to figure it out
[02:21] <Basketball>  i want to change my icon for spotify manually i was able to change the locaton of the icon for the dash and side launcher but i cant figure out how to change it in the panel
[02:23] <HikaruBG> TJ-, OK...
[02:24] <HikaruBG> TJ-, thank you for trying
[02:24] <HikaruBG> TJ-, i will wait for your solution
[02:24] <malachi_constant> TJ-: For the record, I would like you to tell you that I called the guy who did this network, a Harvard graduate, and he wasn't able to figure it out.
[02:24] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Can you log-in as your regular user if you aren't already, then Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a VT, then "ps -efly | grep unity | pastebinit" ?
[02:25] <kuldud> hi
[02:25] <TJ-> malachi_constant: I have a mantra: 1st thing to check: cables, 2nd thing to check: the bloody cables!
[02:25] <malachi_constant> TJ-: Hah!
[02:25] <kuldud> how do i boot ubuntu from usb drive
[02:25] <wafflejock> Basketball: how'd you change it in the other places? editing the .desktop file?
[02:26] <Beldar> kuldud, What is the problem?
[02:26] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136552/
[02:27] <Beldar> kuldud, Just load the iso to a usb with an app, there are a handful available.
[02:27] <kuldud> I have windows 7 i want to boot ubuntu from usb drive - im using a really old computer and it has no dvd rom
[02:27] <kuldud> what app
[02:27] <Beldar> kuldud, Be sure it can boot a usb is all.
[02:28] <carlosqueso> kuldud: unetbootin is what I use
[02:28] <Beldar> kuldud, unetbootin is one, pendrivelinux has others.
[02:28] <Basketball> wafflejock,  i went to user share applications then right clicked edit with gedit and changed the line icon = to icon= place where it is saved
[02:28] <kuldud> ok
[02:31] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, and now "dconf dump /org/gnome/ | pastebinit" ... you may need to do "sudo apt-get install dconf-cli"
[02:31] <Beldar> kuldud, The bios should have a change drives area put the usb as first read.
[02:31] <wafflejock> Basketball: yeah thought that would do it? I installed a few programs myself (as in from source) and created the .desktop file, in gnome taskbar at least it appears to use that icon
[02:32] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136595/
[02:32] <Basketball> wafflejock,  nope panel doesnt change
[02:32] <apb1963> NFS anyone?
[02:32] <HikaruBG> TJ-, i have 14 packages waiting to be upgraded
[02:33] <HikaruBG> TJ-, would you like me to run upgrade?
[02:33] <HikaruBG> This is after we installed the new NVIDIA Drivers
[02:33] <HikaruBG> might be some fixes and patches there....
[02:34] <apb1963> If I can get my NFS working, I can finally move off my 12.04 machine.
[02:34] <aeropause> can ubuntu do everything windows 8 can?
[02:34] <aeropause> i'm thinking of switching as long as i don't lose any functionality
[02:35] <carlosqueso> aeropause...ubuntu does a lot of things, but almost all are done differently
[02:35] <Beldar> aeropause, Windows and Linux have their strong points, you will have to investigate.
[02:35] <carlosqueso> aeropause, what functionality do you need?
[02:35] <aeropause> hmmm well i have to work in an office
[02:36] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Yes :)
[02:36] <aeropause> our documents are word and excel
[02:36] <kuldud> when i install ubuntu in oracle virtual box and i do full install does it wipe my whole hard drive or just the parition
[02:37] <Beldar> aeropause, This is direct Ubuntu support, dual boot and see what can be cross used.
[02:37] <aeropause> whole hard drive, kuldud
[02:37] <kuldud> aw
[02:37] <aeropause> yea you would think the virtual box would compartmentalize the OS but it will wipe your entire drive
[02:37] <aeropause> best to just use windows, because it works
[02:37] <HikaruBG> TJ-, "sudo apt-get upgrade" returned 14 not upgraded. I need to run dist-upgrade
[02:37] <aeropause> i think that's what i'll do
[02:38] <apb1963> kuldud: it doesn't wipe either one.  A virtual computer is simply a file created that helps to emulate the OS.
[02:38] <carlosqueso> aeropause, well there isn't MS office for ubuntu, but you can use libreoffice for simple documents and spreadsheets, and skydrive (or whatever they're calling it)
[02:38] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK ... I'll keep reading :)
[02:38] <eeee> virtualbox doesn't touch the partitions
[02:38] <eeee> aeropause: ^^
[02:38] <Beldar> kuldud, You can dual boot ubuntu on the HD.
[02:38] <aeropause> somebody told me that libreoffice isn't compatible with microsoft office
[02:38] <aeropause> i need compatibility
[02:38] <HikaruBG> OK TJ-, when I upgrade - just to restart lightdm or the entire machine ?
[02:38] <eeee> i mean kuldud: ^^
[02:38] <carlosqueso> aeropause...it's mostly compatible, but will chew up complex formatting
[02:38] <eeee> nevermind
[02:39] <eeee> im sleepy
[02:39] <Beldar> aeropause, So far your half troll half bad advice, what is the deal?
[02:39] <apb1963> aeropause: It depends on how complex your documents are.  It can do simple documents, but forget about macros.
[02:39] <aeropause> hmmm i need macros
[02:39] <aeropause> why can't libreoffice do macros?
[02:39] <eeee> but yeah virtualbox doesn't wipe any partitions, unless you explicitly make a file that represents the raw hard disk
[02:39] <apb1963> aeropause: It CAN do macros.... it just won't do MS macros.  It does macros differently.  You can write macros for libreoffice.
[02:39] <HikaruBG> TJ-, upgrade done, nothing changed - still same issue
[02:40] <aeropause> why does it do macros differently?  don't they want to be compatible?
[02:40] <apb1963> aeropause: they do them differently because the intent is to do them better.
[02:40] <carlosqueso> aeropause, it can do its own macros, but not MS Office's...FWIW, MS Office won't run LibreOffice (or WordPerfect) macros
[02:40] <aeropause> oh.  ok i guess i won't switch to linux then
[02:41] <aeropause> I see why nobody uses linux
[02:41] <TJ-> eeee: Are you using Unity?
[02:41] <eeee> yeah
[02:41] <carlosqueso> aeropause...probably good plan for you
[02:41] <aeropause> yea
[02:41] <aeropause> good plan
[02:41] <eeee> TJ-: what's up?
[02:41] <apb1963> aeropause: If you write your macros in libreOffice they'll work just fine.... and then you'll understand why nobody uses MS Office.
[02:41] <aeropause> hmmm too bad that won't happen
[02:41] <aeropause> because nobody uses libreoffice lol
[02:42] <aeropause> maybe they should have tried being compatible rofl
[02:42] <cynicallemon> apb1963: do people still use ms office?
[02:42] <TJ-> eeee: can you "sudo pastebinit /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log" so I can compare?
[02:42] <carlosqueso> aeropause...this is the wrong place to say that kind of thing....a chat room full of libreoffice users *sigh*
[02:42] <apb1963> cynicallemon: I'm not sure.... I forget what it is.
[02:43] <eeee> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136661/
[02:43] <cynicallemon> apb1963: best ms office creation was clippy, libre office would be good with that
[02:43] <TJ-> eeee: and also "ps -efly | grep unity | pastebinit" ? thanks :)
[02:43] <LostNva> aeropause,  libreoffice works well and replaces Mic Office, but bare in mind some colleges businesses etc. reject it.
[02:44] <apb1963> cynicallemon: and even if I could remember, I wouldn't want to pay thousands of dollars for it, train all my staff and then have to buy it all over again a year later and retrain all my staff again for thousands more... and lose all that productivity when I could have simply gotten LibreOffice for free and trained my staff once and then never again.
[02:44] <aeropause> some?  you mean all, LostNva
[02:44] <aeropause> i feel like linux is for neckbeards and not for serious adults
[02:44] <apb1963> cynicallemon: omg, I hated clippy with a passion.  lol
[02:44] <aeropause> who have work to do, and don't live in their mother's basements
[02:44] <expunge> cynicallemon: obligatory: http://www.vim.org/images/vimassistant.gif
[02:44] <LostNva> aeropause,  no its microsoft politics for money, but the software works well, in some cases better.
[02:44] <eeee> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136672/
[02:45] <expunge> aeropause: I feel like people who shave daily aren't very serious
[02:45] <apb1963> aeropause: You have something against mothers too?
[02:45] <aeropause> the software works well?  by not being compatible with anybody else?  being useless?
[02:45] <expunge> aeropause: nah
[02:45] <cynicallemon> apb1963: lol
[02:45] <apb1963> aeropause: what you mean to say is that MS is incompatible with everyone else by being proprietary.
[02:45] <carlosqueso> aeropause...you're right, MS Office, unlike LibreOffice, OpenOffice and a bunch of others isn't compatible with anyone else
[02:46] <cynicallemon> expunge: love that gif
[02:46] <aeropause> carlosqueso, you're right that I'm right.   If errors are reported to the terminal, let me know, otherwise Alt+F7 to check if you've got the dash
[02:49] <MrJoestar> When I come back from suspend my keyboard starts to have a delay when I press a key. What can I do?
[02:49] <HikaruBG> OK
[02:49] <cynicallemon> office 4.3 to office 2013 - difference?, a heck of a lot of money
[02:50] <kuldud> hi, sorry i have to ask again if i install ubuntu fully in virutal box would it delete anything outside the virtual box
[02:50] <cynicallemon> kuldud: no
[02:50] <carlosqueso> kuldud...nope, that's the beauty of VirtualBox
[02:50] <kuldud> ok thank you
[02:50] <carlosqueso> cynicallemon...office 4.3? Did that run on stone computers?
[02:51] <aeropause> i wish somebody here was articulate enough to convince me that linux wasn't a complete waste of time
[02:51] <cynicallemon> carlosqueso: yeah
[02:51] <TJ-> !ot | aeropause
[02:51] <carlosqueso> aeropause...if MS office is your primary need, then linux is a complete waste of your time....it's not a complete waste of ours
[02:51] <cynicallemon> aeropause: the doors that way >>>>>
[02:52] <apb1963> aeropause: if you do nothing but word processing and spreadsheets, then you don't need the power of linux.
[02:52] <LostNva> aeropause,  My computer works well and has for years, I have no virus protection, I get free software, I don't do scans for malware, everthing works...........

[02:52] <Beldar> yay
[02:53] <apb1963> I remember when MS purchased hotmail.com ....  they tried to port it to MS and then finally gave up.  Last I heard it was still running on Linux servers.
[02:53] <LostNva> wow I was entertained a little by him.
[02:55] <TJ-> apb1963: hotmail was Sun + Solaris
[02:56] <apb1963> TJ-: was it?  The gossip vine said Linux
[02:56] <HikaruBG> TJ-, [1] 3046
[02:56] <HikaruBG> svetoslav@svetoslav-Desktop:~$

[02:56] <carlosqueso> I've never understood why liking one OS means you have to hate all others; I use Windows, Mac and Linux and they all do some things nicely
[02:56] <HikaruBG> TJ-, and hangs there
[02:56] <expunge> carlosqueso: that's just osomania
[02:56] <apb1963> carlosqueso: It's true, I'm a closet XP user.
[02:56] <carlosqueso> expunge...when you have to support users on all of them, you have to
[02:57] <senn558> i use Windows ME exclusively
[02:57] <TJ-> HikaruBG: That's good - it means the process is running in the background - that's the [1] 3046 telling you the process ID
[02:57] <expunge> carlosqueso: ew
[02:57] <carlosqueso> senn558...I think there's therapy for that
[02:57] <apb1963> that's funny
[02:57] <HikaruBG> TJ-, it is good...  but still no taskbar... :)
[02:57] <TJ-> HikaruBG: So it isn't failing then... check with "jobs"   - it should list [1] as "running", not "stopped" or "exited"
[02:58] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I know, I'm trying to force one of the components to give us the clue as to what it is missing
[02:58] <HikaruBG> TJ-, yes, jobs displays one job running
[02:58] <HikaruBG> TJ-, OK
[02:59] <TJ-> HikaruBG: OK, now let's poke the thing! "pgrep unity-panel-service && pkill unity-panel-service && sleep 2 && pgrep unity-panel-service"
[03:00] <HikaruBG> nothing happened...
[03:00] <HikaruBG> or maybe something on background, TJ- ?
[03:01] <TJ-> HikaruBG: did you see some numbers listed by the pgrep commands?
[03:01] <HikaruBG> TJ-, nope - it gave me nothing
[03:02] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Right, we must have git the 15-character comm (process) name limit. Let's lose the last 4 characters. Try this instead: "pgrep unity-panel-ser && pkill unity-panel-ser && sleep 2 && pgrep unity-panel-ser"
[03:02] <TJ-> s/git/hit/
[03:03] <HikaruBG> still nothing, TJ-
[03:03]  * TJ- raise an eyebrow
[03:03] <HikaruBG> TJ
[03:03] <HikaruBG> TJ-, wait -
[03:03] <HikaruBG> my mistake
[03:03] <HikaruBG> I thought you wantme to remove only last 4
[03:03] <HikaruBG> I got numbers
[03:04] <HikaruBG> 2411, 3105
[03:04] <HikaruBG> that's it TJ-
[03:04] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Good :) ... that means we killed the existing process and started a new one... is there any change on the GUI desktop?
[03:04] <HikaruBG> TJ-, nope - still the same
[03:04] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Grrr :p
[03:05] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I feel the same
[03:05] <HikaruBG> need this computer running
[03:05] <eeee> HikaruBG: this is a stab in the dark, but try rm -rf ~/.compiz/session/*
[03:06] <HikaruBG> eeee, and then restart lightdm?
[03:06] <eeee> yeah
[03:07] <TJ-> HikaruBG: eeee go for it :)  ... I'm reading the unity-panel-service.c code since it is responsible for the menus and taskbar
[03:07] <HikaruBG> nice try eeee...  nothing happened though. same old thing
[03:08] <eeee> oh well...
[03:08] <TJ-> eeee: keep going :)
[03:08] <apb1963> TJ-: where is it located?
[03:10] <TJ-> apb1963: where's what located?
[03:11] <apb1963> TJ-: source code
[03:11] <HikaruBG> TJ-, still the same issue ....  aggrivating
[03:12] <apb1963> TJ-:  I figured I'd take a look, just for the fun of it.
[03:14] <TJ-> apb1963: Oh :)   "apt-get source unity" then "UnityCore/GnomeSessionManager.cpp" and "services/panel-main.c" and "services/panel-service.c
[03:14] <TJ-> "
[03:17] <apb1963> TJ-: Odd.... there's no GnomeSessionManager.cpp
[03:18] <trism> HikaruBG: maybe some interesting errors in ~/.cache/upstart/gnome-session-Unity.log or unity-panel-service.log? didn't see that in the scrollback
[03:18] <DoYouKnow> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1310762
[03:18] <apb1963> TJ-: unity5.20.0 ?
[03:18] <DoYouKnow> ^ that bug is affecting me and I'm not on a laptop
[03:18] <DoYouKnow> it's a precision 390 desktop
[03:18] <DoYouKnow> what should I do? it's been closed/expired
[03:20] <DoYouKnow> someone decided to vigilante murder this bug report
[03:20] <HikaruBG> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136870/
[03:20] <trism> DoYouKnow: you are better off filing a new bug
[03:20] <OerHeks> Nvidia Quadro issue ?
[03:21] <DoYouKnow> yes, OerHeks
[03:21] <HikaruBG> and TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/8136877/
[03:21] <HikaruBG> the second one
[03:21] <OerHeks> like trism says: file a new one
[03:22] <eeee> HikaruBG: try sudo apt-get install unity-greeter
[03:22] <eeee> sorry
[03:22] <eeee> HikaruBG: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall unity-greeter
[03:23] <HikaruBG> eeee, same old thing
[03:24] <eeee> nevermind, i thought it has to do with the indicators, just read the man
[03:24] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I did see several mentions that "sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop" solves it... at this stage, that is worth trying!
[03:24] <eeee> cause in dconf editor, under com > canonical > unity > unity-greeter , theres something about which indicators to load at startup
[03:24]  * TJ- hates log-files that don't timestamp entries!
[03:25] <eeee> i guess those are for the lightdm
[03:25] <eeee> and unity-greeter calls something else to load them?
[03:27] <HikaruBG> OK TJ- I am going for it!
[03:27] <HikaruBG> TJ-, it is done.... so fast
[03:27] <HikaruBG> ?!?

[03:39] <apb1963> since it's all quiet now....
[03:39] <apb1963> I've NFS exported my root filesystem (from host/server blue to client orange), which of course includes /mnt/  which itself mounts a secondary drive; i.e. it's a different filesystem than /  So orange sees the mount as /mnt/blue/. Although I'm able to see the directory tree under /mnt/blue/mnt/ which has additional subdirs (i.e. /mnt/blue/mnt/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/) the files that should be under ../h/ are not there.  server is ubuntu 12.04, client is ubuntu 14.04
[03:41] <ax562> any ubuntu 12.04 lts firewall recommendations?

[03:44] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade # firefox should be v31 then
[03:44] <expunge> angular: ^
[03:44] <expunge> update your system
[03:45] <angular> ok i am running software updater. let's see
[03:45] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # can do fun stuff too
[03:49] <Fall> clear
[03:49] <Fall> oops, this isn't bash ;)
[03:50] <expunge> Fall: it'd be neat if it was, though
[03:50] <gabriel_> i am having problems installing ubuntu to a vaio pc
[03:50] <expunge>  what problems
[03:50] <HikaruBG> TJ-, could you please tell me what was the command to list all installed nvidia packets?
[03:50] <Fall> expunge: :D
[03:51] <gabriel_> anybody can help me
[03:51] <Nordom> Can someone point my in direction of a good Grub guide for tweaking graphic settings?
[03:51] <TJ-> HikaruBG: "dpkg -l 'nvidia*'  "
[03:52] <HikaruBG> Thanks!
[03:53] <gabriel_> it takes me to set the location but it a square  pups up with lots of interrogation marks and sends me back to the installation type option

[03:59] <joe7dust> hi guys would someone mind helping me install ubuntu 14.04 on my desktop?
[03:59] <expunge> joe7dust: what's the trouble?
[04:00] <joe7dust> I made the usb boot disk and it boots with purple screen then goes to purple background that says ubuntu 14.04 and white/red dots... then after about 30 seconds it goes to black background with white/yellow dots for about 10 seconds before I lose signal from the video card
[04:00] <joe7dust> waited a couple minutes tried hitting keys nothing helps just have to power cycle
[04:01] <joe7dust> I used Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS>.exe to format and create the boot disc of image ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-i386.iso
[04:02] <joe7dust> said all successful... maybe its loading a default video drive that is incompatible with my system?
[04:02] <joe7dust> driver*
[04:02] <lotuspsychje> joe7dust: what are your system specs?
[04:02] <joe7dust> hp a500n
[04:02] <expunge> joe7dust: maybe; you could try the 'minimalcd' image instead
[04:02] <expunge> which eschews loads of unnecessary graphics
[04:03] <lotuspsychje> joe7dust: you can also try lubuntu, just to test what it does on your system
[04:03] <joe7dust> sounds great i planned on using unity2d anyway
[04:03] <joe7dust> is this really going to install ubuntu? its only 31 mb
[04:03] <joe7dust> Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" Minimal CD 31MB* (MD5: a2502844750ecb6477d8fb4ff6b9aaf8, SHA1: d17c34ce716f13396040ccdc02d32482ed6b01a1)
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> !minimal
[04:04] <joe7dust> ok great
[04:04] <joe7dust> will try it out!
[04:04] <joe7dust> oh but wait
[04:04] <joe7dust> i doubt its going to get my usb wireless driver automatically
[04:04] <joe7dust> so....
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> joe7dust: thats why i would go for lubuntu
[04:04] <joe7dust> ethernet not an option
[04:06] <joe7dust> im glad to see it has torrent available cause the regular was capped at 135kb/s, same on full ubuntu 14
[04:06] <kuldud> hi
[04:06] <joe7dust> yay for full speed
[04:06] <joe7dust> <3 the cloud
[04:06] <kuldud> i set up a virtual box which is running ubuntu how do i remote desktop to it from windows 7
[04:07] <kuldud> ?
[04:07] <joe7dust> I've never heard of remote desktop in ubuntu... probably exists tho
[04:08] <kuldud> the resolution is so small i cant install teamviewer
[04:08] <HikaruBG> TJ-, still here?
[04:08] <joe7dust> can't change resolution?
[04:09] <expunge> kuldud: install/configure a vnc server on the guest
[04:09] <expunge> kuldud: install/configure a vnc viewer on the host
[04:09] <kuldud> ok
[04:09] <kuldud> how
[04:09] <expunge> kuldud: s/host/system you want to view from/
[04:09] <expunge> kuldud: tigervnc
[04:09] <joe7dust> gl man ill be back later if i have trouble
[04:09] <kuldud> im a ubuntu noob that just started today
[04:10] <HikaruBG> kuldud, welcome to Ubuntu :)
[04:10] <kuldud> thx
[04:11] <kuldud> um
[04:12] <kuldud> wait can i not simply remote desktop to ubuntu?
[04:12] <kuldud> or teamviewer
[04:13] <expunge> sure
[04:14] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Yes
[04:15] <HikaruBG> TJ-, NVIDIA 343 driver is BETA and not tested
[04:15] <HikaruBG> that is why I went with 331 on a first place because it was tested by Ubuntu
[04:17] <TJ-> HikaruBG: I'm running 343 here, it's not shown any problems, and I've got 3 GPUs and 6 monitors
[04:17] <wigirc> kuldud: use vino
[04:17] <wigirc> kuldud: and on windows use whatever vnc client
[04:18] <lotuspsychje> vnc is a security danger
[04:18] <kuldud> ok
[04:18] <lotuspsychje> !vnc
[04:18] <kuldud> ok thx
[04:18] <expunge> lotuspsychje: it needn't be
[04:18] <HikaruBG> wow... :) TJ-, nise setup! I thought that my EVGA 590 Classified is an awkward card to start with and linux don't work well with it ....
[04:19] <cynicallemon> lotuspsychje: any remote management system is a security danger
[04:19] <lotuspsychje> cynicallemon: true
[04:19] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Generally, the newer Nvidia drivers fix bugs and perform better
[04:20] <kuldud> how do i download vino
[04:20] <kuldud> <--noob
[04:21] <lotuspsychje> kuldud: sudo apt-get install packagename
[04:21] <lotuspsychje> kuldud: or check the software centre
[04:21] <kuldud> ok
[04:23] <Bashing-om> kuldud: Version: 3.8.1-0ubuntu1 _. sudo apt-get install vino <- for termianl way.
[04:23] <Bashing-om> terminal*
[04:24] <HikaruBG> got it TJ-
[04:24] <HikaruBG> just experimenting ....
[04:25] <HikaruBG> TJ-, I think to finish dealing with this problem for now....
[04:26] <HikaruBG> Thank you for your help!
[04:26] <TJ-> HikaruBG: Good luck with it; hope we find out what causes it
[04:28] <HikaruBG> TJ-, thanks again! :) I will keep you posted if I find out where the problem lays!
[04:31] <kuldud> ok i installed vino server and vnc client how do i connect now
[04:34] <kuldud> ?
[04:35] <alphabravo> Hey guys.
[04:35] <alphabravo> Hey kermit
[04:38] <kuldud> how do i connect to my vnc server?
[04:39] <bipul> find! NIVIDIA GEFORCE
[04:40] <bipul> I would like to know which NIVIDIA products are having an issue, with ubuntu. Can any one know?
[04:43] <nrdb> trying to get deluged daemon to start on a headless server .. but it isn't ... there is no output to any of the log files... can anyone help?
[04:45] <vonzipperton> sup
[04:45] <wafflejock> kuldud: typically just input the IP in the client app
[04:46] <wafflejock> kuldud: the ports need to be opened/forwarded on the server side though, to do it more securely you can use an SSH tunnel
[04:46] <wafflejock> kuldud: what's the relationship on the network between the client/server, same LAN, across the net?
[04:51] <tortib> someone help, I just installed dovecot-imapd and dovecot-pop3d and it didn't create a /etc/init.d/dovecot script
[04:51] <tortib> it says the service is running but I can't connect to it
[04:52] <tortib> ports are opened on the firewall
[04:53] <nrdb> tortib, does "netstat --tcp --listening" indicate that the correct ports are open
[04:53] <tortib> no
[04:53] <tortib> it does not
[04:54] <tortib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8137420/
[04:55] <tortib> nrdb: what do I do?
[04:55] <tortib> I need email services
[04:57] <nrdb> tortib, at least we know it is not a firewall problem etc atm ... have you looked in syslog?
[04:57] <tortib> nrdb: why is the init.d script missing?
[04:58] <cjr> hi. i would like to upgrade from Quantal to Trusty, but there are so many 404 errors in my sources.list that the software updater program won't start properly (it thinks i have an internet error)
[04:58] <nrdb> tortib, no  idea ... it seems to be running ... is xinetd starting it?
[04:58] <tortib> nrdb: no
[04:59] <tortib> xinetd isn't installed, inetd is though
[04:59] <cjr> i can see that all of the "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal" links are broken now that 12.10 is not supported, but i'm not sure what to change them to (i tried archive.canonical.com, but that didn't seem to work)
[04:59] <nrdb> tortib, ok ... any hints in the logs?
[05:00] <tortib> nrdb: not really :(
[05:01] <nrdb> tortib, is the a file in /etc/defaults for it
[05:01] <tortib> is a SSL cert valid if the IP address changes?  Or is it based on the hostname?
[05:02] <tortib> nrdb: no :(
[05:03] <karstensrage> tortib, based on hostname
[05:03] <karstensrage> ip address would be ridiculous
[05:03] <nrdb> tortib, I would expect it to still be listening on the ports even if the ssl certs weren't correct
[05:03] <tortib> okay that's what I thought
[05:03] <tortib> nrdb: true.
[05:03] <tortib> but my postfix install is saying it can't find a sasl authentication mechanism
[05:03] <tortib> which is weird because the dirs are correct
[05:04] <nrdb> tortib, I can't think of anything else atm.
[05:04] <tortib> this sucks!
[05:04] <tortib> why is it doing this!
[05:04] <rww> !eol | cjr
[05:05] <rww> tortib: 1) SSL is unrelated to SASL, 2) do you have an SASL daemon running (like the one that comes with dovecot...)?
[05:05] <tortib> rww: I don't think so
[05:05] <tortib> rww: the dovecot install didn't work properly
[05:05] <tortib> i don't even have a init.d script for it
[05:07] <tortib> okay i did a purge and reinstalled
[05:07] <tortib> it's there now LOL
[05:07] <tortib> weeeirdd
[05:07] <tortib> smtpd isn't working though
[05:08] <tortib> Aug 24 22:07:17 tortib postfix/smtpd[12058]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms
[05:08] <cjr> rww:  ahh, old-releases.ubuntu.com  .. great, thanks! i'll read the rest of that
[05:10] <tortib> any idea guys & gals?
[05:10] <tortib> brb
[05:10] <rww> cjr: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixDovecotSASL
[05:10] <rww> erm, tortib ^^
[05:10] <rww> cjr: no problem :)
[05:10] <cjr> heh, sorry i messed up your tab :)
[05:11] <Neurome> quick questionaire
[05:11] <Neurome> ufw isn't working
[05:11] <Neurome> ive blocked an ip address but still see an active connection
[05:13] <Neurome> from & to XXX ip address meanwhile its still showing an active connection in another program, so i decided to due a quick reload, and status of UFW  reloaded successfully"status : ACTIVE"
[05:14] <Neurome> am i suppose to clear my dns cache or something ? or does it only work upon future connections & not terminate current connections
[05:15] <rww> I think it doesn't terminate current connections. not 100% sure, though.
[05:16] <Flannel> rww, Neurome: I believe that is the case.
[05:17] <cjr> rww: quick question - i have an scp session open with a job running that I should have started in screen, but didn't, so i don't wan't to disconnect before it's done. can i start the upgrade process now and be assured that it will prompt me before it reboots or disconnects me, or should i wait till my job is done? :)
[05:17] <Neurome> rww, Flannel, well i just d/c from the pool
[05:18] <rww> cjr: I'd wait. Upgrades tend to disconnect me halfway through.
[05:18] <Neurome> of several ip's reconnected and still see that ip handshaking my computer
[05:18] <cjr> rww: ok, thanks!
[05:20] <tortib> rww: I never had to do that before...and i just added that to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and it still doesn't work :(
[05:20] <Neurome> Flannel, there still a connection between me & that ip address even after manually terminating and attempting to reestablish to that server
[05:20] <toqoz> can anyone help me install bar under ubuntu?
[05:22] <Beldar> toqoz, Try to detail what you're looking to do for help.
[05:22] <jpkbeddu> Can i hav unity launcher disabled? I use Plank dock and apps when minimized jump to unity launcher even if its in auto hide mode..
[05:22] <Flannel> Neurome: If you terminated the server, verified the connection was indeed closed, and then restarted the server and the identified external server re-connected, then that suggests that the firewall rule is not working properly (which likely means you didn't set it up appropriately)
[05:23] <tortib> rww: I"m getting this error with dovecot: Aug 24 22:21:50 tortib dovecot: imap(tortib): Error: open(/var/mail/tortib) failed: Permission denied (euid=1000(tortib) egid=1000(tortib) missing +w perm: /var/mail, we're not in group 8(mail), dir owned by 0:8 mode=0775)
[05:23] <tortib> I don't want my mail in /var/mail I want it in ~/Maildir
[05:23] <toqoz> beldar, when running make i get the error "bar.c:11:21: fatal error: xcb/xcb.h: No such file or directory" , might be doing it wrong in the first place (new to linux.)
[05:25] <Beldar> toqoz, What you need is probably in the repos, rather than a downloaded tar, again describe the end goal the channel, not me.
[05:25] <Beldar> to the*
[05:25] <Flannel> tortib: You need to set your mailbox location in the config file.
[05:26] <tortib> Flannel: which config?
[05:26] <Neurome> Flannel I did it shows the rule under status,
[05:26] <Neurome> To                         Action      From
[05:26] <Neurome> --                         ------      ----
[05:26] <Neurome> xx                      ALLOW       Anywhere
[05:26] <Flannel> tortib: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (or something similar, conf.d or whatnot).  But dovecot.conf has a line for it, under "mailbox locations and namespace"
[05:26] <Neurome> xx/tcp                  ALLOW       Anywhere
[05:26] <Neurome> Anywhere                   DENY        171.*.*.*
[05:26] <unopaste> Neurome you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[05:27] <tortib> Flannel: k thx
[05:27] <tortib> Flannel: I don't see that in dovecot.conf
[05:27] <Flannel> tortib: You should probably go through that entire config file, there are some things that you'll want to set up that need to be (they've got appropriate notices around them)
[05:27] <toqoz> i want to install bar (bar aint recursive) under xubuntu but dont really know how, could somebody instruct me?
[05:27] <Flannel> tortib: Pastebin your conf file then, lets take a look.
[05:28] <Neurome> Flannel, However the port i opened is open but the ip isn't blocked
[05:28] <tortib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8137618/
[05:28] <Flannel> tortib: What version of Ubuntu is this?
[05:28] <tortib> Flannel: 14.04 LTS
[05:29] <Flannel> tortib: I imagine it's in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/* then
[05:30] <tortib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8137630/
[05:30] <tortib> which one?
[05:30] <toqoz> im assuming i need to use make as there is a makefile in the folder, though get this error when running it: bar.c:11:21: fatal error: xcb/xcb.h: No such file or directory (lf) #include <xcb/xcb.h> (lf) compilation terminated.
[05:30] <tortib> it isn't in mailboxes Flannel I just checked there
[05:30] <Flannel> tortib: Probably 10-mail or 15-mailboxes
[05:31] <tortib> AH
[05:31] <tortib> found it
[05:31] <tortib> it's in mail.conf
[05:31] <Flannel> So, you should probably go through all of these (which basically make up the dovecot.conf file) and make sure there isn't anything you need to do before running this for real (again, it'll be appropriately noted)
[05:32] <tortib> Flannel: what should I do about my smtpd though it isn't working :(
[05:32] <tortib> i can't connect to it
[05:33] <tortib> Aug 24 22:33:06 tortib postfix/smtpd[13940]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms is the error I receive.
[05:33] <tortib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8137644/ is my postfix config
[05:33] <Flannel> Are you running this? or connecting to a third party?
[05:33] <tortib> main.cf
[05:33] <tortib> Flannel: i'm running it
[05:34] <LostyJai> hey guys, how much data roughly do you have to download to upgrade 10.04 to 14.04 ?
[05:34] <LostyJai> i know you have to upgrade to 12.04 first
[05:34] <Neurome> if i block an ip address thats connecting over a port that ive opened would the rules conflict ?
[05:35] <tortib> Neurome: not if you keep the block rule below the open rule
[05:35] <tortib> er block rule above the open rule
[05:35] <toqoz> has anyone gotten bar (bar aint recursive) working on ubuntu? im getting an error during make
[05:35] <tortib> that way it blocks the IP first then it's open to everything else
[05:36] <Neurome> hm
[05:36] <Neurome> tortib is there a way to move the rule through command line or do you have to re order it in the config file ?
[05:36] <tortib> Neurome: you can use iptables -D
[05:36] <tortib> to delete it
[05:37] <tortib> iptables -D INPUT -p tcp etc etc
[05:37] <tortib> Neurome: or by line number works too *i think*
[05:37] <tortib> i haven't tried it that way
[05:37] <tortib> but it should work
[05:39] <Neurome> am too tired to be figuring this out
[05:39] <Neurome> : P O :
[05:40] <tortib> Flannel: any ideas?
[05:41] <Flannel> tortib: I don't know much about postfix, but googling that error gives a number of interesting results, including one that says setting smtpd_tls_auth_only to yes may be related.
[05:43] <tortib> Flannel: it is set to yes
[05:43] <Neurome> tortib thank you though
[05:44] <tortib> np
[05:44] <Neurome> i've just remembered another issue i couldn't find a solution for in google
[05:44] <Flannel> tortib: right, that's what the websites says is your problem (although it may be in conjunction with other settings).  As I said, I don't know a lot about postfix, so ask the internet, it seems this is a reasonably common issue for people.
[05:45] <Neurome> for some reasoning in youtube i get no lag while watching a video but downloaded or otherwise (from most other siteS) the video lags alot, & even when i stop the video the timer and frams still go
[05:45] <Neurome> and when i skip ahead in a downloaded video or in about any site other than youtube the audio cuts off even though i know the files good
[05:46] <Neurome> i also tried vlc media player
[05:47] <Neurome> default media player lags also
[05:47] <Neurome> : \
[05:49] <joe7dust> hey im back... still having the same problem
[05:49] <joe7dust> ubuntu 14 and lubuntu both don't seem to work with my integrated graphics
[05:49] <joe7dust> get black screen during early phases of install
[05:50] <toqoz> what intergrated graphics do you have?
[05:51] <joe7dust> s3g unichrome igp
[05:51] <joe7dust> system is hp a500n
[05:51] <joe7dust> its a via chip
[05:52] <joe7dust> i tried doing a search for a500n linux/ubuntu but it would seem I'm the first ever person to try linux on this model loll
[05:52] <Neurome> toqoz i know you were askin joe but anyways my graphics is , Intel® 945GM x86/MMX/SSE2
[05:53] <toqoz> neurome hahaha
[05:53] <toqoz> joe7dust ive never heard of those before
[05:54] <joe7dust> its like the installation splash screen comes up, language selection etc. but then I get zero signal from the video output
[05:54] <joe7dust> its a pavillion
[05:54] <joe7dust> they're very common actually
[05:54] <joe7dust> this a500n might not be but the pavillion series is
[05:54] <joe7dust> brb
[05:54] <tortib> Flannel: I got it working
[05:55] <tortib> Flannel: I installed the mail-stack-deliver package and it worked :p

[05:56] <PC_Guy> Hello ppl!
[05:58] <ubunt> anyone know how only from the command line you can see images?
[05:58] <joe7dust> what do i do if both ubuntu 14 and lubuntu dont work with my s3g unichrome igp?
[05:58] <Neurome> toqoz, whats funny i have a old graphics :?
[05:58] <nrdb> tortib, still having trouble?
[06:00] <joe7dust> can anyone help?
[06:00] <lokoum> ubunt: you want to convert your image in ASCII to see it into the terminal ?
[06:02] <joe7dust> I guess I'm never going to be able to use linux on this machine then...
[06:02] <lokoum> did you try crunchBang ?
[06:03] <Neurome> joe7dust you could always try different distros
[06:03] <Neurome> just put it on a boot usb or disk first 2 see if it works
[06:03] <ubunt> no in ascii-image no i remember that only exist msdos without GUI , exist a program pqv that i can see images from command line , the same is posible to exist in linux system no?
[06:04] <lokoum> ubunt: sorry don't know
[06:06] <alukard> hola
[06:06] <wafflejock> hello
[06:07] <alukard> hola como estan
[06:07] <wafflejock> !es | alukard
[06:07] <wafflejock> alukard: estoy asi asi, pero no puedo habla espanol muy bien
[06:08] <wafflejock> ubunt: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/aview.1.html <-- is that what you're looking for
[06:11] <lokoum> wafflejock aview looks awesome but doesn't support png format :/
[06:12] <wafflejock> lokoum: you can use convert from imagemagick
[06:14] <lokoum> i'll try it now
[06:14] <tortib> nrdb: yeah
[06:14] <tortib> nrdb: I'm not able to connect to my roundcube webmail service
[06:14] <tortib> it says DATABASE ERROR!
[06:14] <tortib> but there isn't anything helpful int he logs
[06:14] <tortib> DATABASE ERROR: CONNECTION FAILED!
[06:14] <tortib> is the only thing it says
[06:20] <elky> tortib: did you set the database up?
[06:21] <tortib> elky: yeah I ran dpkg-reconfigure roundcube-core
[06:21] <tortib> everything went fine, no errors.
[06:22] <Space-Duck> Can someone please help me with a PS1? The smiley is always true, because of the directory cmds called prior. How can I the cmd I entered, but keep the placement of the smiley? http://pastebin.com/a33rRq3z
[06:22] <ubunt> wafflejock: I install aview but when i want to see image output --> Invalid magic-not p?m family format
[06:22] <wafflejock> ubunt: yeah wrong format... I just tried it too for fun... you need to grab imagemagick
[06:23] <wafflejock> it has a program convert, then do convert orginalfile.jpg output.pgm
[06:23] <rww> Space-Duck: save the value of \$ to a variable at the start, test the variable instead of \$
[06:23] <wafflejock> then you can do aview output.pgm
[06:23] <rww> erm, $?
[06:24] <lokoum> it works only with pgm format ?
[06:24] <wafflejock> lokoum: yeah think so says it was written a while back
[06:24] <lokoum> okay
[06:24] <wafflejock> lokoum: http://aa-project.sourceforge.net/aview/
[06:24] <alphabravo> Oh! I had a question.
[06:25] <alphabravo> wafflejock, What's aview, btw?
[06:25] <alphabravo> skimming.
[06:25] <cfhowlett> !aview | alphabravo,
[06:25] <wafflejock> alphabravo: nothing really just a program to open pictures as ascii art
[06:25] <cfhowlett> !info aview
[06:25] <Flannel> ubunt, wafflejock: if you install caca-utils, there's a "cacaview" program that'll view a good number of image formats.
[06:25] <ubunt> i only see image , i want not see image in asciimode, it's possible?
[06:25] <alphabravo> cfhowlett, Do I need to type that?
[06:25] <alphabravo> oh.
[06:25] <alphabravo> ASCII :D
[06:25] <alphabravo> I remember someone once ported Quake to ASCII. I wanted to play but never did.
[06:26] <rww> ubunt: sure, if you set up a framebuffer and then use one of the various framebuffer utilities, but that's rather annoying to do last I tried
[06:26] <rww> and rather more involved than I'd want to get into in #ubuntu
[06:26] <wafflejock> ubunt: oh sorry thought the ASCII thing is what you were looking for... didn't know why but figured I'd check
[06:26] <alphabravo> rww, maybe it would be a good candidate for a virtualbox vm.
[06:27] <alphabravo> A lot of hard to setup things can be made easy for people with fast computers by putting it in a vm.
[06:27]  * rww blinks
[06:27] <alphabravo> Nice eyes.
[06:28] <alphabravo> Anyone know which USB soundcards work well in Ubuntu?
[06:28] <cfhowlett> !hcl
[06:28] <alphabravo> I've been there.
[06:28] <alphabravo> I'd like to know what's a know good one. Like, definitely.
[06:28] <tortib> elky: any ideas? :\
[06:28] <alphabravo> I'm using a cheap one that I had to use one of the fixes with.
[06:28] <alphabravo> It is asynchronous, which seems to be the issue.
[06:29] <ubunt> exist a help ? what do framebuffer need to install for to do possible a view image in command line?
[06:29] <wafflejock> alphabravo: probably a good thing to check on the forums for, or reviews if possible
[06:29] <alphabravo> If you personally have one that works exceptionally well that would be welcome info.
[06:29] <alphabravo> wafflejock, yeah, did that.
[06:29] <alphabravo> There's nothing like a review or a batch of testing.
[06:29] <alphabravo> Mostly I can find ones that *don't* work.
[06:30] <alphabravo> "Asynchronous" you can find on packaging, but you don't see "synchronous," because it's considered a negative (but it isn't if you want it to work with Linux).
[06:30] <alphabravo> Well, that's my understanding.
[06:32] <alphabravo> hey sudoku
[06:32] <alphabravo> I never got good at sudoku.
[06:33] <alphabravo> For example, this page says "works": https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsSoundCardsCreativeLabs
[06:33] <alphabravo> Well, mine "works," but not very well.
[06:34] <lokoum> have you try to turn it off and on ? :P
[06:34] <wafflejock> alphabravo: this might help http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/hardware_support?redirect=1
[06:34] <wafflejock> or this http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/hardware_matrix
[06:35] <alphabravo> Having a look.
[06:35] <wafflejock> could always get something with a penguin on it http://www.ebay.com/itm/Penguin-USB-2-0-Audio-Adapter-Card-for-Linux-Ubuntu-/270791927280
[06:35] <wafflejock> that's gotta be  good right :)
[06:37] <tortib> okay I got roundcube working
[06:37] <tortib> I purged it and reinstalled
[06:37] <tortib> but the plugins I installed with apt-get install roundcube-plugins roundcube-plugins-extra are not showing up
[06:38] <tortib> under settings
[06:38] <Space-Duck> wafflejock, how do you set \$ to a variable? I'm using http://pastebin.com/LCFsZqLA
[06:38] <wafflejock> Space-Duck: sorry man no idea what's going on there
[06:38] <cynicallemon> tortib: have you purged and reinstalled the plugins?
[06:39] <wafflejock> Space-Duck: I don't do much bash programming myself
[06:39] <tortib> cynicallemon: good idea :)
[06:39] <alphabravo> wafflejock, 8-| I have a c-media one. Maybe mine's a different version.
[06:39] <alphabravo> Mine says c119. I wonder if that's the same as CM119.
[06:40] <wafflejock> alphabravo: well was mostly joking about that though it does say it's for linux, either way would use the linuxaudio site as reference instead
[06:40] <wafflejock> alphabravo: seemed to have more info there
[06:40] <tortib> cynicallemon: that didn't help :(
[06:41] <wafflejock> tortib: you can check what the roundcube-plugins package installs
[06:41] <wafflejock> tortib: dpkg -L roundcube-plugins
[06:41] <wafflejock> or whatever the package name is
[06:41] <wafflejock> it probably extracts some stuff to /etc/apache2/something
[06:42] <wafflejock> or maybe just into the existing roundcube folder
[06:42] <tortib> ah I thought it would install a calendar :(
[06:42] <tortib> but it doesn't look like it does
[06:42] <wafflejock> tortib: yeah I have roundcube but haven't tried any plugins
[06:42] <tortib> it did install the address book though so that's cool
[06:42] <tortib> thanks wafflejock
[06:43] <wafflejock> tortib: np, I personally just use GMail for the calendar bits, use Thunderbird to bring everything together
[06:43] <tortib> wafflejock: i'm on OS X
[06:43] <tortib> so I use mail and Calendar
[06:43] <alphabravo> Yeah, wafflejock, it's odd. No problems in Windows, but both of my usb soundcards have issues in Ubuntu, though different-sounding glitches.
[06:43] <tortib> calendar integrates with google mail though so it's fine
[06:43]  * cynicallemon blames pulseaudio
[06:44] <tortib> but I wanted my users to have a calendar as well
[06:44] <alphabravo> cynicallemon, OK, should I kick pulse to the curb somehow?
[06:44] <alphabravo> Or, rather than should, could I?
[06:44] <wafflejock> alphabravo: well it's not too odd if the manufacturers only have windows device drivers but I'm no audio gear expert
[06:44] <alphabravo> As you might not want to be held responsible for my own errors.
[06:45] <alphabravo> Yeah, it's a bit funky.
[06:45] <cynicallemon> alphabravo: no doubt pulse is tied into ubuntu somewher
[06:45] <alphabravo> But it was only like $5 or something.
[06:46] <wafflejock> alphabravo: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture <-- found this helpful in debugging sound issues at various times
[06:46] <alphabravo> Do I understand correctly that JACK could be used to replace Pulse?
[06:46] <alphabravo> ty
[06:47] <wafflejock> !jack
[06:47] <wafflejock> !pulseaudio
[06:47] <wafflejock> !jackd
[06:47] <wafflejock> hmm
[06:48] <wafflejock> !info jackd
[06:48] <wafflejock> k I give
[06:48] <wafflejock> o there it is
[06:49] <alphabravo> "Sound skipping while using dynamic CPU frequency scaling" This may be my problem.
[06:49] <alphabravo> jackd means jack daemon?
[06:49] <alphabravo> I've installed it.
[06:49] <wafflejock> alphabravo: think so forum I found said "jack" package is something altogether different
[06:49] <alphabravo> aha, good to know.
[06:50] <wafflejock> alphabravo: yeah just read it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1651435
[06:51] <alphabravo> wafflejock, When using jack do I need to do something to pulse? I just launched qjackctl.
[06:51] <HyrulianHero> Hello everyone I have a question about a flash drive not working.
[06:52] <HyrulianHero> the best summary of my situation is I used umount to unmount a flash drive and now I cannot seem to find it after plugging it back in.
[06:52] <HyrulianHero> any quick tips you can throw me?
[06:55] <Ububegin> I am testing for corrupted files using bzip2 -t corruptedFile.tar.bz2.. how do I log only those files which dont pass this test
[06:57] <jnhghy> in ubuntu 14.04 I saw I can choose while installing the os something like "photo editor" where the install process asked me if I want to include photo editing software (movies and sound editors also) is there a list with the default software that the installer will add to the os if I choose to install them?
[06:57] <alphabravo> HyrulianHero, What happened after you rebooted?
[07:00] <wafflejock> alphabravo: no idea just guessing on this stuff, like I said only read up on it a bit myself and no USB hardware here... though I'd like a USB mic
[07:00] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, It won't show me that the flash drive is present when it is physically plugged in. I used the command dmesg | tail and it says that there is a 16.2 G drive attached but I can't find a way to mount it.
[07:00] <alphabravo> wafflejock, totally understood. It looks like it's kind of the luck of the draw.
[07:00] <alphabravo> Too bad there's nothing certified.
[07:00] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, even after rebooting.
[07:01] <alphabravo> HyrulianHero, what does Disks say?
[07:02] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, "should I pastebin the output for you?"
[07:02] <a_p3rson> Looking for help installing HIDPoint on 14.04.1, kernel 3.13.0-34-generic. The installer is complaining of an unsupported kernel version - is it really a problem?
[07:02] <alphabravo> HyrulianHero, check Disks. I'm not the guy to give a pastebin.
[07:02] <alphabravo> But Disks will list mount points.
[07:02] <alphabravo> Disks is the name of the program.
[07:03] <alphabravo> If there are multiple volumes you can click on them. There's a hyperlink to open the mount point.
[07:05] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, I don't know anything about the Disks program but II can't seem to find it on my system.
[07:06] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, Howver the thing I suspect that may be my flash drive has a message that says /dev/sdb: sdb1
[07:07] <alphabravo> HyrulianHero, oh. You have 14.04? If you just type Disks after hitting the Ubuntu button it will come up.
[07:08] <helmut_> hi
[07:08] <alphabravo> I'm not sure about other versions.
[07:08] <alphabravo> hi

[07:14] <trex_> let me know to install live help messenger to ubuntu.
[07:15] <cynicallemon> iscorpion: good luck, just take your time and understand it
[07:17] <alphabravo> cynicallemon, know of one that works well with Ubuntu?
[07:18] <Aiena> do ubuntu and debian pacckages always follow the same naming ?
[07:21] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, I got Disks and used opened it however I still do not see the drives in my file  manager.
[07:21] <HyrulianHero> alphabravo, Note I can see them in Disks
[07:22] <Arahael> How do I fix this error? dpkg: error processing package libapache2-mod-wsgi (--configure):
[07:22] <geirha> Aiena: Ubuntu copies debian's packages. Adds some packages of its own, and modifies some of them, but for the most part, they are the same.
[07:23] <Arahael> I am attempting to get wsgi workign in ubuntu by using aptitude install libapache2-mod-wsgi, but it isn't working (and there isn't much diagnostic feedback)
[07:23] <Aiena> Ok thanks.
[07:23] <trex_> let me know to install live help messenger to ubuntu.
[07:23] <trex_> ??
[07:26] <Arahael> WEirdly, when I attempt to reinstall it, I get: E: Internal Error, No file name for libapache2-mod-wsgi:amd64

[07:33] <somsip> !alis | Vladimir_
[07:34] <alphabravo> Hyperbyte, interesting. What's the mount point?
[07:34] <alphabravo> nevermind, Hyperbyte
[07:40] <Arahael> Found my issue. Seems that if you have /etc/apache2/mods_enabled/wsgi.conf, then that *breaks* libapache2-mod-wsgi
[07:50] <ray1> I am having trouble setting usbhid mousepoll=2 in 14.04
[07:50] <ray1> has anyone had issues with mousepoll in 14.04?
[07:51] <sadistic1heart> hi all
[07:54] <sadistic1heart> any one into BDSM?
[07:54] <ray1> no but I'd like some help
[07:54] <somsip> !ot | sadistic1heart (though that is waaaaay off topic even for #ubuntu-offtopic)
[07:56] <cfhowlett> sadistic1heart, wrong channel - WRONG
[07:56] <saju_m> I have an expect code like below. When executing it spawn VPN process and disconnect/kill the VPN process after except block. I want to keep that VPN process running even after except block. How to do this ? See http://dpaste.com/27D17Y4
[07:58] <ray1> how can I save and default to specific xrandr modes that I created  with cvt
[07:58] <cynicallemon> perhaps sadistic1heart wanted a bsd room...
[07:59] <trex_> How to MySQL Optimization at server ?
[08:02] <Vladimir_> what does this command do: ~/bin/rancid-cvs ?
[08:03] <ray1> it fucks up the base :(
[08:03] <cfhowlett> ray1, no profanity = family friendly discussion channel.  thanks.
[08:04] <cfhowlett> trex_, might want to discuss @ #ubuntu-server
[08:04] <Arbition> Vladimir_: Well it is in your home directory (~) so whatever rancid-cvs is
[08:04] <Arbition> cvs being concurrent version control
[08:05] <Arbition> for managing code
[08:05] <Vladimir_> Arbition: well I follow a guide and it tells me to run that command but I get an error "no such file or directory"
[08:05] <Vladimir_> Arbition: this is the guide: http://havermyer.com/?p=18
[08:06] <Arbition> Ah, so you start by changing to the rancid user's home directory and then execute that command in it
[08:06] <Arbition> seems odd to me
[08:07] <Arbition> but I guess thats how its been packaged
[08:07] <Arbition> looks like a recent tutorial
[08:08] <Arbition> Vladimir_: Do you know what the su command does?
[08:08] <Vladimir_> Arbition: it changes changes user?
[08:08] <juniour> hi
[08:08] <Arbition> yes
[08:08] <Vladimir_> Arbition: But nowhere in the guide does it say to create a user rancid
[08:09] <Arbition> it should be made automatically during install of the software. There are plenty of system user accounts
[08:09] <Vladimir_> okej
[08:09] <Vladimir_> Arbition: so what's the problem in my case?
[08:09] <Arbition> if you "less /etc/passwd" you'll notice a lot of users you didn't add and many match system utilities
[08:09] <Arbition> I still don't know
[08:10] <Vladimir_> this is in the passwd: rancid:x:111:121::/var/lib/rancid:/bin/false
[08:10] <Arbition> what version of ubuntu are you using? Same as the guide (12.04.04)?
[08:11] <Arbition> well assuming the su - rancid command works (which seems unlikely as the /bin/false "shell" is not a shell) the file /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs does not exist
[08:11] <Vladimir_> it's a bit older, 10.04 Arbition
[08:11] <ssrepfler> hi, I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 on a PC which has two network connections only one of them connected to the LAN and getting an IP address over DHCP (the DHCP only gives addresses to specific MAC addresses). Can I somehow bridge the first network interface with the second and then make it possible for a computer to connect directly to the second interface and be able to navigate?
[08:11] <Arbition> Oh well, the packaging of that package may be different on that version
[08:11] <Arbition> so that file may not be in the same location
[08:11] <Arbition> I don't have that version on hand so I can't confirm for you
[08:12] <frib> i'm trying to mount usb disk but it's not showing up in fdisk -l or blkid -- what can I do?
[08:12] <Arbition> check lsusb and see if the system recognises it as a USB device at all first
[08:13] <ray1> hi, I'm trying to set mousepoll=2 on ubuntu 14.04. I have tried setting it with grub conf and /etc/modules, like I did on 12.04, but with no results.
[08:14] <onr> What do you use to upload music to Apple iPod?
[08:14] <k1l_> onr: apple stuff is tied to prop. itunes
[08:15] <onr> k1l_: wrong
[08:15] <Arbition> yeah iDevices are moving targets. Something is made to make it work, then apple changes it with new firmware and projects
[08:15] <Arbition> *products
[08:17] <onr> hmm, obviously rhythmbox support ipod just fine
[08:17] <redwalk> ssrepfler: change net.ipv4.ip_forward=0 to =1 in/etc/sysctl.conf
[08:17] <frib> how can i fix this error? FAT-fs (sdb1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
[08:17] <cfhowlett> onr, apple (possibly deliberately) breaks linux hacks with every update.  IMHO it's not worth the frustration to spend so much time/effort on a hack that will be useless within 6 months.  YMMV.  OLDER itunes/ipods may still be viable, but the newer hardware/itunes is almost always a generation or 2 behind.
[08:18] <onr> cfhowlett: ah, thankfully i'm using an old ipod and ios
[08:18] <cfhowlett> onr, that's why your stuff works.  :_)  rhythmbox is your friend
[08:18] <Arbition> frib: run as root (or with sudo) "fsck /dev/sdb1"
[08:19] <cfhowlett> !ipod | onr
[08:19] <ray1> I cant set mousepoll=2 please help!
[08:19] <Arbition> ray1: Sorry, I don't know anything about that
[08:19] <frib> Arbition: says No such file or directory -- Possibly non-existent device?
[08:20] <onr> !rockbox
[08:20] <Arbition> frib: What is it that is telling you that the volume was not properly unmounted?
[08:20] <onr> yay firmware replacement
[08:20] <frib> Arbition, dmesg
[08:20] <onr> danke cfhowlett
[08:20] <cfhowlett> onr, bitte
[08:21] <Arbition> frib: Does /dev/sdb exist?
[08:21] <frib> Arbition, i don't think so, but somehow dmesg mentioned it
[08:21] <Arbition> could you copy your dmesg to http://paste.ubuntu.com ?
[08:23] <Arahael> Why is my /tmp directory writable only by root?  How did that get changed?
[08:24] <frib> Arbition, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8138692/
[08:26] <Arbition> frib: [    2.636850] usb-storage 3-4:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected [ 1380.613964] usb 3-4: USB disconnect, device number 2
[08:26] <Arbition> frib: looks to me like the system thinks its disconnected
[08:27] <frib> Arbition, even though it is?
[08:27] <Arbition> something might have failed, plug it in and out again
[08:27] <frib> Arbition, even though it is?
[08:27] <frib> sorry repeat.  ill try
[08:28] <frib> Arbition, still nothing in fdisk
[08:29] <Arbition> dmesg again if you could
[08:29] <frib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8138739/
[08:29] <Arbition> thats the same one
[08:30] <frib> because i did the same thing twice in a row
[08:30] <Arbition> No I think the issue is there is a limit to the pastebin length
[08:30] <frib> ill just tail it then
[08:30] <Arbition> tail -n 500 should do it
[08:31] <boozo> hey folks I'm trying to install mint on some computer at work and I'm having problems (Yes I know it is no ubuntu but I know you can help me with debug)
[08:31] <Arbition> 996 is a strange line limit though
[08:31] <k1l_> !mint | boozo there is the mint support and they will help you
[08:31] <frib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8138742/
[08:32] <Arbition> oh dear
[08:32] <boozo> ty
[08:32] <Arbition> if you did actually plug in and out the USB drive and nothing else changed, that flash drive or your USB controller is a bit stuffed
[08:32] <yell0w> i'm on xubuntu 12.04. I tried https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html but hibernate still does not work from the menu. pm-hibernate works from terminal. any suggestions ?
[08:33] <Arbition> assuming it isn't dmesg failing that is
[08:33] <frib> Arbition, i broke the drive?
[08:33] <Arbition> they can break on their own
[08:33] <Arbition> try it on a different computer
[08:33] <Arbition> if you can
[08:34] <frib> i just connected it back to my rpi
[08:35] <Arbition> could you dmesg that?
[08:36] <frib> Arbition, my rpi recognized it phew
[08:36] <Arbition> ok so either something funky is going on in kernel land or you've got a trouble controller in your computer
[08:37] <frib> :\ but its a new laptop
[08:37] <frib> usb3 is reverse compatible right
[08:37] <Arbition> yes
[08:37] <Arbition> though actually USB is basically a different system completely, they just merged both into one connector
[08:37] <Arbition> the USB2 lines aren't even in use in USB3 mode
[08:38] <frib> well it should work basically
[08:38] <frib> ill try a different port
[08:38] <Arbition> if you can, try a non usb3 port
[08:38] <frib> i dont know if there ar eany
[08:38] <Arbition> because all the USB3 ports would be connected to one controller
[08:38] <Arbition> hmm, unforntunate
[08:39] <Arbition> Being USB3 though, might be a software issue
[08:39] <Arbition> Try restarting the machine, plugging it in after power up and see what happens
[08:40] <Arbition> if you are able to, try a different live disk distribution, in case there are kernel issues
[08:42] <frib> Arbition, could it be a bios issue?
[08:42] <Arbition> I guess it could be, but I'd put it further down on the likelyhood list
[08:43] <Arbition> Unless you mean experimental firmware on the controller itself rather than the system bios/efi
[08:43] <Arbition> though USB3 should be rolled into the PCH by now (assuming intel, I know little about AMD systems)
[08:43] <frib> Arbition, i have a usb2 stick that is recognized
[08:43] <frib> but this disk not?
[08:44] <Arbition> actually, do you have a USB2 only extension cable?
[08:44] <Arbition> or USB2 only hub
[08:44] <frib> i think i have a hub yea
[08:44] <frib> but i don't know how old it is
[08:45] <Arbition> shouldn't matter unless you know the hub doesn't wor
[08:45] <frib> i dont know that
[08:45] <frib> nor do i not not know that
[08:45] <Arbition> you have another USB2 stick you can test the hub with
[08:46] <frib> can't i just use the cable from the hard disk
[08:46] <frib> i assume that's what you're thinking might be the issue?
[08:46] <Arbition> No it isn't
[08:46] <Arbition> by using a USB2 only tansport, you force the disk into USB2 mode
[08:46] <Arbition> thus isolating whether it is a USB3 issue
[08:47] <frib> a usb2 stick doesn't do that?
[08:47] <Arbition> oh I thought you implied the one that doesn't work was USB3
[08:47] <frib> no it's usb2, whereas i have another usb2 small stick that works
[08:48] <Arbition> ah
[08:48] <Arbition> Hmm
[08:48] <frib> the non-working one is a 2tb
[08:48] <Arbition> ahhh
[08:48] <Arbition> ok I'm just going over your dmesg
[08:49] <Arbition> the one that doesn't work is 2TB you said right?
[08:49] <frib> yes
[08:49] <Arbition> ok that was never recognised by the system
[08:49] <Arbition> sdb was an 8GB device
[08:49] <frib> ah ok
[08:49] <Arbition> sda is a 250GB device
[08:49] <frib> that was my other usb3 stick
[08:50] <frib> Arbition, btw if a usb device is not mounted i can safely unplug it right
[08:50] <Arbition> sure
[08:50] <frib> so what is the conclusion then?
[08:50] <Arbition> the unmounting procedure is entirely about ensuring that cached writes are written to the disk,
[08:50] <Arbition> I'm still reading your dmesg
[08:51] <frib> oh it's recognized now ithink
[08:51] <Arbition> So the 2TB device is USB2?
[08:51] <frib> i changed usb port and somehow now it's recognized
[08:51] <frib> even though before it wasn't recognized in this port
[08:51] <Arbition> Not especially suprising
[08:52] <frib> for normal logic it is rather surprising actually :\
[08:52] <Arbition> I might add I have had a friend who had nothing but trouble with his HP Envy, but it was a very early generation
[08:53] <frib> Arbition, at first when i got it i was a little bit wary but actually it hasn't given me much trouble
[08:54] <frib> other than my mom broke the touchscreen while transporting it and i can't find a damn replacement part that works
[08:54] <Arbition> heh
[08:54] <frib> no srsly they are selling the touchscreen for more than i paid for the laptop
[08:58] <frib> thanks for the help
[08:58] <ubunt> why when i put who -q output 3 users and in home i only have one user?
[09:01] <boozo> so I tried ubuntu's installer and there is the same problem
[09:01] <boozo> when I try to install the ubuntu on the system the installer doesn't find/list my hard drive
[09:02] <boozo> I can manually mount it without a problem
[09:05] <hackal> Hello do you know any good screencap tool for creating gifs?
[09:06] <IamTrying> I am taking a Dedicated server its offering me to have CentOS 7 or Ubuntu 12.04. But i specially need Apache package which has built in ECDES_RSA chipper support
[09:06] <frib> hey Arbition, I'm also noticing that my swap and root partitions are not showing up in fdisk either .. any idea why?
[09:07] <IamTrying> Ubuntu 12.04 - apt-get install apache https  does it have built in ECDES_RSA? or its not ?
[09:08] <dragos> ubuntu is cool
[09:08] <dragos> i will never spam
[09:09] <Capprentice> ikonia, Can you help me in configuring SQUID! I need to know few things ...
[09:09] <boozo> Anyone know how do I get the installer to list my /dev/sda? :(
[09:10] <Capprentice> Hi Im trying to configure a Transparent Web Cache. What I have installed so far is the HTTP Proxy Server Module and Two NICs. eth0 has the IP:<IP_ADDRESS>, NM:<IP_ADDRESS> and GW:<IP_ADDRESS>, now how do I configure the eth1 NIC so that traffic passes through SQUID and the WEBcache starts working?
[09:14] <frib> why doesn't fdisk -l list my swap partition?
[09:15] <tomodachi> frib: perpahs its not on the device you specified, or perhaps its a swap file , not a partition
[09:15] <tomodachi> frib: or perhaps its within an lvm
[09:15] <frib> tomodachi, no it's a partition that i specified while installing ubuntu
[09:15] <frib> tomodachi, it should be /dev/sda2
[09:15] <tomodachi> frib: are you using lvm?
[09:16] <frib> what is lvm?
[09:16] <tomodachi> linux volume management
[09:16] <frib> i dont know
[09:16] <tomodachi> try lvdisplay as root
[09:16] <tomodachi> if it spits out lot of output then yes
[09:16] <dragos> ubuntu dosent find my bluetooth adapter
[09:16] <frib> tomodachi, command not found
[09:16] <tomodachi> ok your not using it
[09:17] <frib> dragos, you should check the product/vendor id
[09:17] <frib> tomodachi, the partition shows up in parted -l but it doesn't give me the uuid .. but why doesn't it show in blkid and fdisk -l ?
[09:18] <dragos> no with fedora worcs
[09:19] <dragos> dfb
[09:19] <dragos> b
[09:19] <dragos> gb
[09:19] <dragos> fgbfgb
[09:19] <dragos> rgb
[09:19] <dragos> fg
[09:19] <unopaste> dragos you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[09:19] <tomodachi> frib: perhaps our partition is of the type GPT instead of the old format MBR
[09:19] <Ben64> dragos: that surely isn't the way to get help here
[09:19] <tomodachi> fdisk does not support GPT partitions
[09:20] <frib> tomodachi, how can i confirm that?
[09:22] <guy312_> can somebody help me with AP Dumb mode?
[09:23] <Farva> good eveing
[09:24] <Farva> I am trying to get a handle on linux perms, and this just drives me crazy
[09:24] <Farva> I have a dir that is in my name and group, I can enter it via my shell, but not my SFTP with the same user
[09:25] <Farva> so how do I tell this directory to always listen to me, and to stop uploading new files as root
[09:25] <tomodachi> Farva: sounds like a permissions mask set in your sftp server
[09:26] <Farva> you mean my filezilla?
[09:26] <Abhijit> no. thats just a gui client.
[09:26] <hateball> Farva: The FTP daemon you're using
[09:27] <Farva> 3rd day into all this, not sure what that means
[09:27] <unimatrix9> is there a good terminal webcam view way ?
[09:27] <Farva> if you mean for me to check my ssh_config?
[09:28] <Farva> do you mean...*
[09:28] <hateball> Farva: Oh my bad, you said sftp and not ftps
[09:28] <Farva> mhmm
[09:28] <Farva> =]
[09:29] <Farva> so how do I resolve this issue? I did not setup a perm mask that I can recall
[09:30] <t4nk042> hi
[09:30] <Farva> heyyy
[09:31] <t4nk042> I am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS version for my server ....I always check partition space using "df -Th" command ....Today when I checked space using "df -Th" so it is showing a particular parition is full but when i checked using "du -sh"
[09:32] <t4nk042> it is not completely full.
[09:32] <t4nk042> is there any way to find out what is eating space on partiton ?
[09:33] <unimatrix9> baobab
[09:33] <t4nk042> I have also tried to check open files on partition using "lsof" command but no use.
[09:34] <redwalk> use du
[09:34] <redwalk> Or better yet du -sh
[09:37] <typ> du -sh *
[09:37] <typ> does list dirs with size
[09:37] <typ> in current folder
[09:37] <redwalk> du -sh /thefolderyouwant
[09:37] <hateball> t4nk042: also per default, 5% of partition space is reserved for root
[09:38] <redwalk> du -sh /* will give you the usage starting at root.
[09:39] <SrRaven-work> so, lets say I have two servers running Ubuntu Server, can I simply copy all relevant postfix files to the new machine ?
[09:40] <cfhowlett> !server | SrRaven-work,
[09:41] <t4nk042> but it's 1000GB partition and it's showing 80% used but du -sh shows 343 GB used.
[09:41] <SrRaven-work> thanks and sorry cfhowlett
[09:42] <cfhowlett> SrRaven-work, no worries, just trying to see you find your answer.
[09:47] <tortib> does anyone know how I can fix a mail looping error?
[09:47] <tortib> I just tried to send a message to one of my users and I got the mail looping error :\ undeliverable.
[09:47] <antivirtel> hello all! I've 12.04 LTS 32 bitsinstalled, and I want to upgrade to 14.04 LTS and at once, I want to change OS to amd64 architecture... can I do it without reinstalling?
[09:48] <hateball> antivirtel: No.
[09:49] <hateball> !clone | antivirtel
[09:49] <cfhowlett> antivirtel, nope.  torrent the 14.04.1 iso and clean install.  use the above to replicate your packages.
[09:49] <cfhowlett> hateball, does that apply with 32 > 64 bit repo change????
[09:49] <hateball> And backup your ~/ and other data you may have
[09:50]  * cfhowlett assumes that backup of ~/ goes without saying ...
[09:50] <hateball> cfhowlett: I *think* all package names are the same, just :i386 if 32-bit
[09:50] <antivirtel> hmm... thank you hateball and cfhowlett, can't I do the debian-upgrade way, that change the source's list i386 to amd64, and than dist-upgrade?
[09:51] <cfhowlett> antivirtel, sort of what I was wondering.  hateball?
[09:51] <hateball> Well, it's *possible* to switch archs, but it's certainly not supported or recommended afaik
[09:51] <antivirtel> yep, mee to
[09:51] <hateball> Assuming you have backups, you can give it a go
[09:51] <antivirtel> why? could it be problematic, or what?
[09:52] <cfhowlett> antivirtel, all things being equal, strongly suggest clean install first, then add packages.

[10:10] <olspookishmagus> hello, does the LiveCD of 14.04 contain system-config-lvm thingy?
[10:13] <ray1> Hey everybody!!
[10:14] <ray1> I'm looking for some help
[10:14] <ray1> I can't get my usb to poll at 500hz
[10:14] <^^x^^__> ray1: just ask, somebody may help
[10:14] <ray1> but the usbhid parameters show mousepoll=2
[10:14] <ray1> everywhere. in grub cfg
[10:14] <ray1> kernel modules
[10:15] <ray1> I've tried all the methods I could find instructions on how to do
[10:15] <ray1> adding the parameter to /etc/modules worked on every other distro that I've tried
[10:15] <ray1> This is on 14.04 fyi
[10:18] <ray1> what can I do
[10:19] <ray1> make a post on askubuntu or something like that
[10:19] <ray1> where should I look for help on this, if not here
[10:24] <Kaapa> hey there
[10:25] <Kaapa> historically, /etc/resolv.conf gave me the dns provided by dhcp
[10:25] <Kaapa> in latest versions it's always pointing to <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:25] <Kaapa> which I assume is a local dns daemon
[10:25] <cynicallemon> Kaapa: dnsmasq
[10:28] <Kaapa> ok... any way to make it reload / refresh / whatever? Cause I can't resolve an IP address the guy sitting next to me can
[10:28] <cynicallemon> sudo service dnsmasq restart ?
[10:29] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  want to manually change the dns (nameserver)?
[10:29] <Kaapa> no service with that name
[10:29] <Kaapa> MonkeyDust: actually, I just wanted this to work
[10:29] <Kaapa> I have no idea what dns server is using
[10:29] <Kaapa> cause it's not resolving
[10:31] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  do the following, i wonder why it has changed too... sudo -e /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base ... then add 'nameserver [IP]' and save ... then run: 'sudo resolvconf -u' (that's -u for update)
[10:31] <MonkeyDust> without the quotes
[10:34] <Kaapa> why would I have to manually add the dns server that dhcp gives me in order to have a system that works?
[10:34] <Kaapa> what's the point of dnsmasq?
[10:35] <cynicallemon> dnsmasq is a forwarder
[10:35] <Kaapa> using connection information, I see that the dns server returned is <DNSIP>
[10:36] <Kaapa> if I do nslookup <IPIWANT> <DNSIP>, I get an address. If I just do nslookup <IPIWANT>... no
[10:43] <Kaapa> any tips on how to make this flush / whatever?
[10:43] <Kaapa> I really don't want to fix this issue by having to manually add to a confnig file every possible dns server I eventually get
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  is that a server?
[10:44] <Kaapa> it's my laptop
[10:45] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  why "every possible dns server"? why not just 1 ?
[10:46] <Kaapa> MonkeyDust: I plug my laptop in my office network. I get a dns server. Doesn't work. I manually add it. What guarantees do I have that this won't happen ever again?
[10:46] <Kaapa> this is dhcp
[10:46] <Kaapa> should "just work"
[10:51] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  using the procedure i just suggested, i guess you can add multiple nameservers, that of your office and that of your 'private usage'
[10:52] <Kaapa> MonkeyDust: you realize there's no 'private usage' here, right?
[10:53] <Kaapa> it's just the standard dns server
[10:53] <MonkeyDust> Kaapa  ok, great, then add your office's name server address
[10:54] <Kaapa> that's just insane
[10:54] <Kaapa> well, I just edited  /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and disabled dnsmasq
[10:54] <Kaapa> and now things are working
[10:55] <Kaapa> I can't believe it's normal having to add the dns info that dhcp returns to me to have a working dnsmasq
[11:00] <Guest86417> hi guys I used this command to search for cannong CR2 and jpg images. and I have some questions. find /home/josh/Desktop/test -type f -name "*.CR2" -o -type f -name "*.jpg" | wc -l > file.txt 1) this finds four images, 3 in the folder in question and one in a sub folder inside that. - how do I get it to only operate the files in the immediae folder?
[11:01] <hateball> Guest86417: use the --max-depth option
[11:01] <Guest86417> Oh amazing. Thanks And 2 ) how do I get it to ignore case of the file extention .e.g. jpg vs .JPG and to count both as part of the search?
[11:04] <Guest86417> thanks hateball !!
[11:07] <ray1> usbhid mousepoll is set to 2 but it's not working
[11:07] <ray1> where could the problem be?
[11:10] <Guest86417> hateball, thanks - i am confused what exactly does -maxdepth 0 do?

[11:24] <th3host> how can I upload my app to software center?
[11:24] <MonkeyDust> th3host  you can't, make it a PPA and hope someone picks it up
[11:25] <th3host> ok
[11:25] <k1l_> th3host: see http://developer.ubuntu.com/
[11:25] <th3host> got it.
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> th3host  and when it's tested and approved by the ubuntu team, they can add it

[11:31] <lexx> hello
[11:34] <psih0man> hello! I got a driver error on a Ubuntu 14.04 system: "[2053776.131961] mptbase: ioc0: LogInfo(0x30030108): Originator={IOP}, Code={Invalid Page}, SubCode(0x0108) cb_idx mptctl_reply" and I cannot find good documentation about it using Google Search... can anyone help me debug it, please?
[11:38] <MonkeyDust> psih0man  is this very old post useful (2004!!!) http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/mandriva-30/no-module-mptbase-found-for-kernel-174226/
[11:40] <psih0man> MonkeyDust: I actually just found something by truncating the log line here (2009-2012): https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14831
[11:41] <Vladimir_> I can't install packages with apt-get install, i get packages have unmet dependencies
[11:42] <k1l_> Vladimir_: pastebin the output please
[11:42] <Vladimir_> I just installed ubuntu 12.04, it's a fresh install so I wonder
[11:42] <hateball> Vladimir_: have you done "sudo apt-get update"
[11:42] <Vladimir_> hateball: yes but it fails
[11:43] <Vladimir_> k1l_: I can't copy paste since i go through a vmware machine
[11:43] <Vladimir_> I need to install openssh-server
[11:44] <k1l_> Vladimir_: apt-get update fails? why does it fail?
[11:44]  * hateball guesses networking issues in a VM
[11:44] <Vladimir_> k1l_: I get: openssh-server: Depends: libwrap0 (>= 7.6-3) but it is not installabe
[11:44] <k1l_> hateball: yep, me too.
[11:45] <k1l_> Vladimir_: do a sudo apt-get update first # to make sure you got the latest list of packages
[11:45] <Vladimir_> it's no ´problem to ping google.com or other connection
[11:45] <k1l_> "sudo apt-get update"
[11:46] <Vladimir_> I'm doing the update now and it's downloading stuff and later there's a bunch or lines saying. W: Failed to fetch bzip2:/var/lib...../se.archive.ubuntu.com_...
[11:46] <Vladimir_> of
[11:46] <Vladimir_> and the last line is "E: some index files failed to download. They have been ignored or old ones used instead"
[11:47] <k1l_> try the main servers then. maybe the se servers or your route to the se servers is corrupt
[11:48] <k1l_> if you have a outdated package list (like you have when there is an error with apt-get update) one package will say it needs other packages versions than you got on your system.
[11:48] <Vladimir_> k1l_: I think I solved it now
[11:49] <Vladimir_> I just typed "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
[11:49] <Vladimir_> yes, it works now, thank you :)

[11:55] <thomaschaaf> thanks will try there :)
[11:56] <femtac> Hi, what is the best alternative to notepad plus plus text editor on Ubuntu. It needs to absolutely have the FTP plugin to list files and edit them directly on the server.
[11:59] <Farva> okay, I am having a very odd problem that is detrimental to my work today
[12:00] <Farva> I am locked out of my main directory even though I am logged in with the right user and I have ownership of the directory
[12:00] <Farva> I ran chmod -R farva:farva <dir>
[12:00] <Farva> and it locked me out
[12:01] <k1l_> which dir? and what is your actual real username on that system?
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> Farva  try bluefish
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> femtac  ^^^^
[12:04] <Farva> I am a linux newb, I have no idea what that is
[12:04] <Farva> 3 days in
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> femtac   try bluefish
[12:04] <Farva> to any shell commands of any sory
[12:05] <Farva> sort*
[12:05] <Farva> so I don't know if you are telling me to run 'femtac' or 'bluefish' or both...
[12:05] <femtac> MonkeyDust: thanks, will try it now
[12:06] <Farva> oh
[12:06] <Farva> there is a person lol
[12:07] <superlou> I'm trying to set up the Openfire XMPP chat server on a company intranet on an Ubuntu precise server, and by default, XMPP uses port 5222.  Our IT guys say they're not blocking any ports, but when we try to connect on port 5222, we get timeouts.  If I change Openfire to listen on a different port, it is successful.  I can use a local XMPP client to connect to the server at localhost:5222 but not across the network at myserver:5222.  We have
[12:07] <superlou> hostname resolution working for other services (apache2).  Is there a definitive way to determine if Ubuntu is blocking the connections, or something else on the network?
[12:07] <Farva> How can I change the permission of my directory when chown is denied?
[12:08] <eeee> Farva: chown is denied?
[12:08] <Farva> yes
[12:08] <eeee> meaning what?
[12:08] <Farva> I wanted to gain ownership of a dir and a tech guy said to run: chmod -R ,dir>
[12:08] <Farva> after I ran that, I was deneid access to the directory
[12:08] <geirha> Farva: You're saying your homedir is no longer accesible to you? what does    ls -ld ~    output?
[12:09] <Farva> when I ls -l it shows I have ownership of the entire dir and all its contents
[12:09] <Farva> I am logged in with the correct user
[12:09] <Farva> even when I root the command I am told access denied
[12:09] <linux> подскажите а правда что ебунту хуета редкостная ?
[12:10] <eeee> Farva: chmod -R <dir> wont do anything, as you didn't specify any permission's
[12:10] <linux> так и думал
[12:10] <eeee> !rs | linux
[12:10] <k1l_> !ru | linux
[12:10] <Farva> oh sorry, it was chmod -R farva:farva dir
[12:10] <Vladimir_> a tiny problem with rancid, I'm running this guide: http://havermyer.com/?p=18 and very early when I run ~/bin/rancid-cvs it says No such file or directory :/¨
[12:10] <Farva> which put all the perms into my name and group
[12:10] <geirha> Farva: Do you really mean chmod, or did you mean chown?
[12:11] <Farva> but when I try to access it in any way I am told denied
[12:11] <Farva> I really mean chmod
[12:11] <geirha> that's invalid
[12:11] <Farva> that was what I was told to run earlier by some one else
[12:11] <eeee> Farva: that also doesn't do anything, it should be chown -R <user>:<group> <dir>
[12:11] <Farva> well, it changed the ownership of my files and dir into my name
[12:11] <geirha> Farva: what are the permissions now? ls -ld /the/dir
[12:11] <k1l_> what dir is it anyway?
[12:11] <geirha> Farva: chown changes ownership, chmod changes mode
[12:12] <Farva> d-wx-wx--x 14 farva farva
[12:12] <geirha> Farva: there you go, missing read access
[12:12] <Farva> how can I add that?
[12:12] <geirha> chmod 775 /the/dir
[12:12] <k1l_> what? no read allowed?
[12:12] <eeee> Farva: what are the permissions you would like?
[12:13] <Farva> all, I am the core user
[12:13] <eeee> Farva: what about others?
[12:13] <k1l_> what dir does get such permissions?
[12:13] <geirha> do not use -R with that though
[12:13] <eeee> ( not the user or group )
[12:13] <Farva> I have one other guy, but I haven't set up much for him yet
[12:13] <Farva> its a small server
[12:13] <Farva> for now, I just need to be able to access thi
[12:13] <Farva> this*
[12:13] <Wiz_KeeD> hey guys, how do I find all the folders that start with theme* in a certain path?
[12:13] <Farva> outside of root of course
[12:14] <geirha> Farva: It's dangerous to use chown and chmod when you do not fully understand how they work. I recommend taking a step back and learn it properly. Here:  http://mywiki.wooledge.org/Permissions
[12:14] <Farva> ty geirha
[12:15] <MonkeyDust> Wiz_KeeD  try   find [path] -name "theme*"
[12:16] <Wiz_KeeD> just did that it worked, thank you!

[12:45] <cfhowlett> !patience | Delian
[12:45] <IdleOne> I think if you try repeating it a few more times per second you will get an answer a lot faster
[12:45] <ikonia> Deihmos: best to leave it a while before repeating the question
[12:46] <IdleOne> or you'll get 3 people telling you to stop repeating so quickly :)
[12:46] <Delian> ok i am crawling here :) forgive me please my ignorance
[12:46] <Delian> iv got it sorry
[12:48] <Delian> i have mint 17 kde if thats help to help me
[12:48] <riffraff> hi everyone
[12:48] <riffraff> I'm trying to upgrade a server from 12.04 to 14.04
[12:49] <cfhowlett> !mint | Delian, perfect!  here's your answer: you're in the wrong channel.  Ask for mint support from mint.
[12:49] <Pici> Delian: We don't support Mint at all here.
[12:49] <fajung> hi, I'm on 14.04,, I have set my keyboard to spanish, so [Alt Gr] + ['] = ? but sometimes it does the _, and from time to time, the numpad light get off without me switching it
[12:49] <riffraff> but something seems wrong with my cgconfig.conf file
[12:49] <Pici> oops, too slow :)
[12:49]  * cfhowlett still doesn't understand why so many thing ubuntu is the spot to ask for mint support
[12:49] <cfhowlett> *think*
[12:49] <riffraff> namely: "Cgroup mounting failed"
[12:49] <riffraff> my google fu fails me
[12:50] <Delian> ok since i am very new on linux and on irc coul some one give me a tip how to go to the right place please?
[12:50] <cfhowlett> Delian, same way you joined this channel.   /join #linuxmint-help
[12:50] <HaaPut> Delian: I guess u can get driver info using  lspci
[12:50] <eeee> Delian: /server irc.spotchat.org
[12:50] <Delian> i just open irc
[12:50] <Delian> so here i am
[12:51] <eeee> then what cfhowlett said
[12:51] <Delian> i dont know how to use it
[12:51] <IdleOne> Delian: in this window you will type /server irc.spotchat.org and then /join #linuxmint-help
[12:51] <Delian>  /server irc.spotchat.org
[12:52] <Delian> nothing !
[12:52] <andyfied> delian
[12:52] <IdleOne> Delian: no space before the /
[12:52] <andyfied> don't put a space at the front
[12:52] <Delian> irc.spotchat.org
[12:53] <andyfied> of course, typing /server tends to close the current connection instead of just opening a new one...
[12:59] <fajung> how can I prevent the keyboard to auto switch to english, I need to be on Es ub14.04
[13:01] <MadLamb> I press the chrome button in my laucher, it blinks for a while and stops blinking, chrome doesnt open. Then i search for chrome in the dash search, and click there, it opens. what might it be?
[13:02] <lu> ifconfig wlan down doesn't work?  Any ideas?
[13:02] <lu> ifconfig wlan0 down doesn't work?  Any ideas?
[13:04] <himansurathi> i had installed tlp with flgrx driver and my whole ubuntu screen was flickering when i rebooted the computer. Any ideas why tlp did not work?
[13:06] <himansurathi> How can i prevent overheating of my computer in ubuntu?
[13:06] <pgar23> MadLamb: Try checking /var/log/syslog for errors related to Chrome
[13:07] <pgar23> himansurathi: monitor /proc/cpuinfo - snapshot of processes
[13:08] <Voyage> How can I see the running processes by user id?
[13:09] <Voyage> how can I see each user ID and name on my system?
[13:09] <himansurathi> Actually I had to reinstall ubuntu again.So i cannot give a snapshot but The screen was divide into two halves and the screen did not refreshed on clicking any application although there was no such effect observed in windows.
[13:10] <himansurathi> I just wanted to know the reason because i installed tlp on ATi AAdeon graphics card to prevent overheating of my laptop in ubuntu
[13:10] <pentatonic> hello all! my computer is driving me crazy. I thought I solved this when I got help a few days ago, but it is happening again. the helping user said it had to do with wifi power savings, and it really had helped meanwhile. but since last night the browser/cursor freezes with absolutely there is nothing to freeze (when 1 tab is open).
[13:11] <himansurathi> And what software should someone install to prevent overheating in ubuntu and extend battery life?
[13:14] <Amoz> himansurathi, there's not much you can do there except installing proprietary drivers (which usually has more power-saving features implemented) and maybe powertop
[13:18] <vorsprung> hi
[13:18] <vorsprung> just "upgraded" to 14.04 from 12.04 and I have a breakage
[13:19] <vorsprung> I had to install and run boot-repair to make it come up at all
[13:20] <vorsprung> now if I boot normally it seems to run a lot of init scripts / upstart stuff but the graphical screen login doesn't appear
[13:20] <himansurathi> Will Installing powertop will not hamper the computer like tlp did?
[13:20] <vorsprung> ctl-alt-f1 etc works that's what I'm using now
[13:20] <himansurathi> Sorry for above comment Will powertop not hamper ubuntu like tlp?
[13:21] <Amoz> himansurathi, maybe powertop doesn't apply to you, it's an intel-developed tool.
[13:21] <pbx> is there any way to get the "type your command" feature (which comes up when i tap alt) to show keyboard shortcuts along with the command names? or anything similar to it that does?
[13:22] <Vladimir_> I get one problem with Rancid, when I run clogin to a switch it says that the .cloginrc file does not exist in the /home/rancid/.cloginrc directory. Why does it look in that directory since I created that file in /var/lib/rancid/.cloginrc ?? very strange, how do I change where clogin looks for that file?
[13:25] <k1l_> Vladimir_: i am not sure if that much users have a clue of rancid. i think you are better off with asking the rancid guys.
[13:26] <pbx> for a second i thought there was a new release coming, like Rancid Raccoon
[13:26] <Combatjuan> I have build-essential and make installed but when I try and use it "The program 'make' is currently not installed....".  Sure enough "locate bin/make" and "ls /usr/bin/make" confirm it does not exist.  Ubuntu Precise Server 12.04.
[13:27] <eeee> Combatjuan: i think it should come by default
[13:27] <eeee> sudo apt-get install make
[13:29] <Combatjuan> eeee - Right.  It claims to already be installed.  It's obviously not.  I removed build-essential and reinstalled it which did not help.  I just remove make (and build-essential by dependency) and reinstalled and... it did work?  So, I guess that's good.
[13:36] <veryhappy> hey guys - trying to install ubuntu minimal on a system without an ethernet but only wifi access, installation finished without errors and i had access once on the AP but since the install of unity in my new installed system with ubuntu 14.04 x64 everything changed. it always says
[13:36] <veryhappy> session failed, and i wanted to fix that but now i always get with the usage of wpa_supplicant: 4-way-handshake failed and the message ssid not found, anyone who can help?
[13:40] <alinmear> veryhappy: did you configure NetworkManager?
[13:43] <veryhappy> alinmear: no, its not configured yet and also not configurable, i dont have a possibility to even log in into Unity, because this one is broken.
