[12:07] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: what is the output of:  uname -a
[12:08] <dajesius> Linux juicebox 3.2.6 #1 SMP Fri Feb 17 10:40:05 EST 2012 i686 GNU/Linux - I was messing around my kernel a few weeks ago.
[12:08] <dajesius> changing it and stuff.
[12:08] <dajesius> but I don't think this caused the wicd problem.
[12:08] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: squid3 supports FTP?
[12:08] <dajesius> nightcrow: yes.
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: I use it here, so yes
[12:09] <Ben64> dajesius: what is the output of:     lsb_release -r
[12:09] <dajesius> Release:	10.04
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: is this a desktop OS? with mouse pointers and Firefox browser?
[12:09] <dajesius> actionparsnip: yes.
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: then it is EOL, Lucid is no longer suported on the desktop
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: I suggest you upgrade to Precise which is LTS and supported til April 2017
[12:10] <dajesius> but how in the world can I connect to WEP-networks.
[12:10] <dajesius> any ideas?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: your install isn't supported here
[12:10] <dajesius> also, this is a dhcp problem.
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: its like installing WIndows 98 then calling Microsoft for suport
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: they wont support you as the OS is dead
[12:11] <dajesius> support*
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: same with Lucid on the desktop
[12:11] <dajesius> Windows*
[12:11] <dajesius> aw man
[12:11] <dajesius> but I need help.
[12:11] <Ben64> then upgrade to 12.04
[12:11] <auronandace> dajesius: that doesn't change the support rules
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: upgrade to Precise which you can do in one jump online, or clean install Precise from CD / USB and you will be supported
[12:11] <Ben64> not to mention you installed a non standard kernel
[12:11] <Ben64> thats double unsupported here
[12:12] <dajesius> :(
[12:12] <dajesius> im gonna walk away
[12:12] <dajesius> with a sad face
[12:12] <JustSomeGuy> hi how can i remove a "rogue" block device? i have the device /dev/xvdf which was removed from the machine but its still listed and now uses 100% of the cpu
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: if you dislike Unity shell, install Xubuntu 12.04
[12:12] <dajesius> i shall install xubuntu then
[12:12] <dajesius> i hate unity shell
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: did you use the safe removal feature in your OS before removing it?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: Unity ironically is not for everyone :)
[12:13] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, (its a server no gui) i unmounted the filesystem
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: but did you eject the device before pulling it?
[12:13] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, are you aware of PERF_EVENT?
[12:13] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, how do i eject a the device from cli?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: no idea, sorry
[12:14] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, are you aware that Ubuntu 11.x to 12.x are rootable?
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: sudo eject /dev/sga     for example
[12:14] <dajesius> by rootable I mean, privillege-escalation vulnerability.
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: yes, but its not advised r necessary
[12:14] <dajesius> linux is slowly becoming windows
[12:14] <dajesius> we all have to admit
[12:14] <dajesius> windows= viruses
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> dajesius, no ubuntu is slowly becoming windows...
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> dajesius, ubuntu != linux
[12:14] <dajesius> linux= backdoors/exploits
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> uh sry
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: please take it elsewhere, this is support
[12:15] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, eject /dev/xvdf > not an sg device, or old sg driver, eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
[12:15] <dajesius> JustSomeGuy, hackers aren't focused on windows anymore
[12:15] <auronandace> dajesius: can you go talk nonsense elsewhere, this channel is for support
[12:15] <DJones> !ot | dajesius
[12:15] <dajesius> the time when viruses for windows were made is gone
[12:15] <dajesius> now it's time for linux
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: sudo fdisk -l   does it show?
[12:15] <JustSomeGuy> uch
[12:15] <dajesius> to get virusified.
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: again, take it elsewhere please
[12:16] <dajesius> actionparsnip, does Ubuntu support xfce?
[12:16] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, fdisk -l hangs :D i see the device in iostat though
[12:16] <auronandace> !xubuntu | dajesius
[12:16] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, with 100% util
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: yes the xfce based release is just as supported as the main gnome based ubuntu release
[12:17] <Guest7683> exit
[12:17] <dajesius> !lubuntu
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: are there PIDs accessing it in:   lsof
[12:17] <dajesius> !wicd
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: lubuntu 12.04 is not LTS (sadly)
[12:17] <auronandace> !msgthebot | dajesius
[12:17] <dajesius> ActionParsnip: ouch!
[12:17] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, ah yeah it does thx
[12:17] <Ycarene> How do I forcibly remove a package with circular dependencies?
[12:17] <dajesius> is ubottu real or something
[12:17] <wheatthin> wicd isn't no more in current releases
[12:18] <DJones> !bot | dajesius
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> !info wicd raring
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> !info wicd saucy
[12:18] <wheatthin> hmm
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: really?
[12:18] <BluesKaj> wheatthin, is there any alternative to NM , then ?
[12:18] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, ok i killed the accessing processes but still i get 100% util in iostat
[12:18] <wheatthin> yup I suppose
[12:20] <Ycarene> !info circular dependency
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: wherever you read that wicd is not in newer releases, I suggest you send them the text I made ubottu output. They are dead wrong
[12:21] <dajesius> ActionParsnip & wheattin & BluesKaj & JustSomeGuy & Ben64 & Ycarene: Why doesnt “tail” work to truncate log files?
[12:21] <dajesius> I'm trying to manage my log file size using a cron script. I basically want to delete all but the last 2000 lines of the log file every night. I'm trying to run this command, but it seems to be emptying the entire file instead of doing what I want:
[12:21] <dajesius> tail -2000 logfile.txt > logfile.txt
[12:21] <dajesius> Does anyone know why this isn't working and/or how to accomplish what I want? :)
[12:21] <jpds> dajesius: 'tail -n 2000' is what you want.
[12:21] <Ycarene> I have something installed that consists of three packages, each package is dependent on the next and the first on the last, so it won't let me un-install any of them because the other on the one I want to remove.
[12:22] <dajesius> jpds, thanks!
[12:22] <dajesius> that worked.
[12:22] <Ben64> Ycarene: uninstall all 3 at once?
[12:22] <dajesius> Ben64, ubuntu vs opensuse
[12:22] <dajesius> !opensuse
[12:22] <Ycarene> ben64 - you know, I thought of it right before you said it.   I'm having troubles with a fresh ubuntu 12.04 server install and unattended-upgrades in that email results come as a .dat file rather than text in the body:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780235/
[12:26] <nightcrow> does wget support socks proxy?
[12:26] <ArneLurk> I'm going to try using Metacity to fiddle with themes on my 13.04 install. Will it work?
[12:26] <dajesius> nightcrow: no.
[12:28] <Ben65> nightcrow: google says yes
[12:33] <chunkyhead> how to delete my encrypted swap and then recover it?
[12:33] <regorianer> there was a chan for open source software, but #opensource is nealry empty, which one was it ?
[12:35] <marahin> Guys, what is the difference between linux-generic and linux-server?
[12:35] <dajesius> marahin, linux-generic sucks.
[12:36] <dajesius> and linux-server doesn't.
[12:36] <pianogmx> where do I go on ubuntu to set up my wiki page?
[12:36] <marahin> dajesius, well, *coughs*.
[12:36] <dajesius> marahin, the world spins on and on.
[12:37] <dajesius> but linux-generic doesn't.
[12:37] <dajesius> it's still there, stuck in the lonely islands of win32.
[12:37] <marahin> hahahah
[12:37] <marahin> mokay ;P
[12:39] <dajesius> chr0n1k, let's tango down.
[12:39] <chunkyhead> how to delete my encrypted swap and then recover it?
[12:39] <dajesius> chunkyhead, chuck em'.
[12:39] <ArneLurk> oops, I did a metacity --replace by mistake, what's the default thingy to replace back to?
[12:40] <chunkyhead> dajesius, what do u mean
[12:40] <rudolf_> Hi
[12:40] <rudolf_> Does anyone here use aria2?
[12:40] <dajesius> ArneLurk, configure your PERF_EVENT configuration files and set memset()'s swap-area to 52.
[12:40] <dajesius> as that is default.
[12:40] <dajesius> rudolf_: only fans of bill gates use aria2
[12:40] <nightcrow> damn it :(
[12:40] <dajesius> are you a fan of bill gates, aria2?
[12:40] <nightcrow> wget doesnt support a socks proxy
[12:40] <nightcrow> crap
[12:40] <dajesius> nightcrow; damn the bible.
[12:40] <nightcrow> lol
[12:41] <chunkyhead> dajesius, the problem is when is start my computer it takes time and then tells me that swap could not be loaded or something. press s to skin and something else to do manual stuff.
[12:41] <rudolf_> dajesius, why so?  Can you please help?
[12:42] <acerimmer> !swap|chunkyhead,
[12:42] <wheatthin> chunkyhead, swapon swapoff
[12:42] <wheatthin> :P
[12:42] <dajesius> I sure can, what do you need help with?
[12:43] <dajesius> wheattin, thanks for helping out chunkyhead, I thought he was gonna unleash his gloryness over this channel.
[12:44] <rudolf_> dajesius, I am unable to use its options. Like -j is used to set max number of parallel downloads and its usage is "-j, --max-concurrent-downloads=N" but it always gives some syntax error when i use it.
[12:45] <rudolf_> Can you please tell me how to correctly use the option?
[12:45] <nightcrow> is there an alternative to wget for ftp that can support socks
[12:45] <nightcrow> ?
[12:45] <crossRT> Hi guys, anyone know is that 13.04 disable scroll on launch bar? or is it a bug?
[12:46] <wheatthin> nightcrow, just use proxychains with wget
[12:46] <nightcrow> im not familiar with that
[12:46] <wheatthin> !proxychains
[12:47] <wheatthin> hmm
[12:47] <chunkyhead> dajesius, is it so difficult for u to help someone new?
[12:48] <rudolf_> dajesius, I mean I just want to know how to use that option? The usage in the man pages seems a little weird and all are giving some errors.
[12:49] <pianogmx> hi i would like to contribute to ubuntu but I am trying to figure out how to go about doing that.  i found that there is no longer a mentor program.  can someone help me out?
[12:49] <acerimmer> !contribute|pianogmx,
[12:50] <rudolf_> Anyone?
[12:51] <rudolf_> Can anyone tell what am I doing wrong at the terminal?
[12:52] <pianogmx> acerimmer, yes I read this but I am stuck on trying to learn how to do bug fixes and all that stuff or do something software related.  hence I was looking for a mentor but I saw that "program is closed" thing
[12:53] <ArneLurk> Apparently unity --replace gave me back the 13.04 look. I have no idea what I
[12:53] <acerimmer> pianogmx, might I suggest you attempt to network locally ... your linux/ubuntu user group would likely welcome your participation.
[12:53] <vedic> Hi, my parents are using a laptop that is now 3 years old. With windows vista, it is running too slow now. I was thinking to install Ubuntu 12.04 desktop on it but was worried would he be able to use it as he is comfortable with windows. Any suggestions, how I can make the Ubuntu 12.04 (is 13.04 worthier for this task?) appear more like windows?
[12:53] <ghking> help me please! My stardict always quit automaticly when I scan or input anyword. I have try start it in terminal, it shows "Segmentation fault" when it dead.
[12:54] <gordonjcp> vedic: making it "appear like" Windows won't make it work like Windows
[12:54] <bazhang> !themes | vedic
[12:54] <gordonjcp> vedic: that'll only make things more confusing
[12:54] <acerimmer> vedic, xubuntu and lubuntu are optimized for older/lower spec machines.
[12:55] <rschmitty> gordonjcp: most parental units just want to click and icon and do something, they don't care how it works as much as where are the icons :P
[12:55] <gordonjcp> rschmitty: exactly
[12:55] <rudolf_> What do I do when a new version of ubuntu is released? Do I need to download the complete iso and reinstall everything?
[12:55] <gordonjcp> rschmitty: it took my mum roughly 10 seconds to get used to Unity
[12:55] <bazhang> ghking, this is a debian install?
[12:56] <rudolf_> bazhang, you use aria2c right? Can you help me with setting the options?
[12:56] <rschmitty> good point, unity is probably better for older folks, nice big icons no "start menu"
[12:57] <bazhang> rudolf_, never used it, no
[12:57] <acerimmer> rudolf_, best practice is to download the iso, make a usb and clean install that puppy.  IMO.  Then again, I only install LTS so go figure.
[12:57] <rudolf_> bazhang, nut you suggested it...so i thought. :|
[12:58] <bazhang> acerimmer, I think you mean rschmitty
[12:58] <acerimmer> rudolf_ oh and "download" means torrent.  md5sum check is assumed.
[12:58] <acerimmer> bazhang, eeks.  too late.
[12:58] <rudolf_> acrimmer, so that means with every new version we need to reinstall all the softwares?
[12:58] <vedic> rschmitty: correct
[12:59] <bazhang> ghking, Please do Not crosspost your debian questions here, thats for #debian alone
[12:59] <vedic> bazhang: Thanks
[12:59] <acerimmer> rudolf_, LTS is supported for 3 years on the desktop.  non-lts are not.  reinstalling every 2 - 3 years seems reasonable to me ...
[12:59] <mjuszczak> I need a jre for Apache Directory Studio.  What's the recommended one for ubuntu?
[13:00] <bazhang> !java | mjuszczak
[13:01] <bazhang> which one does apache directory studio demand mjuszczak ; see the links above
, oh, sorry! but I think ubuntu is not much different form debian.
[13:01] <mjuszczak> perfect
[13:01] <mjuszczak>  thank you
[13:01] <bazhang> :|
[13:02] <pianogmx> acerimmer, where would i find a group online that can take me into a group project where I can learn about software development with someone?
[13:02] <pianogmx> acerimmer, like a linux channel...
[13:02] <acerimmer> pianogmx, ##linux  ?
[13:03] <bazhang> pianogmx, why not join #ubuntu-bugs , #ubuntu-packaging , #ubuntu-meeting , and #ubuntu-devel and silently watch what happens there
[13:03] <acerimmer> bazhang, excellent suggestion
[13:03] <rudolf_> acerimmer, what is the difference between LTS and UBUNTU desktop?
[13:03] <wheatthin> LTS stands for long term support
[13:03] <bazhang> rudolf_, one has five years support the most recent only NINE months
[13:03] <bazhang> rudolf_, LTS = five years
[13:03] <randomgry> rudolf_: LTS is a name of version, the bit which says the Ubuntu version is supported for a long time. UBUNTU is the operating system name.
[13:04] <acerimmer> rudolf_, LTS is ubuntu.  Long Term Support.  on desktop versions, LTS is 3 years ... except 12.04 which has 5 years.  On server, LTS is supported for 5 years.
[13:04] <rudolf_> But why is new ubuntu desktop released every 6 months and LTS every 2 years?
[13:05] <acerimmer> rudolf_, in my case, I use Ubuntu Studio.  Latest version 12.04 and supported until 17.04.  Next LTS version will be 14.04.
[13:05] <bazhang> rudolf_, thats beyond the knowledge or scope of this channel, (the new shorter nine month support cycle)
[13:05] <acerimmer> rudolf_, consider the non-LTS to be bleeding edge test version ...
[13:06] <rudolf_> ok...means non-LTS versions are continuously tested and when they are stable enough they get converted into LTS?
[13:06] <rudolf_> Thats why new LTS version takes 2 years?
[13:07] <rudolf_> Am i right acerimmer ?
[13:07] <acerimmer> rudolf_, formulating my response ...
[13:07] <rudolf_> Just telling you what I understood from your response. :)
[13:08] <rudolf_> ok thanks :)
[13:09] <acerimmer> rudolf_, non-LTS do not "convert" to LTS.  LTS is arguably subject to a more rigorous testing cycle and does not include all the latest shiny stuff that the interim releases have.  On the other hand, for a production environment, 3 - 5 years of support is quite attractive.
[13:09] <acerimmer> gotta go.  coffee shop is closed.
[13:09] <rudolf_> hmm...got it
[13:14] <Moonlightning> So I have a headless home server with FDE, and I want to be able to reboot it remotely, without having to find a keyboard and type in the passphrase.
[13:14] <gordonjcp> Moonlightning: doesn't that kind of negate the usefulness of FDE?
[13:15] <Moonlightning> Seems to me that it shouldn't, if it's done right.
[13:16] <Yapple> hey guys. just installed XBMCbuntu onto an old DELL inspiron 1525 (core 2 duo, intel GMA graphics). resolution 1280x800 (on the laptop's display), but when i switch to 1920x1080, the TV only shows 1/4 of it
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> Moonlightning: if you add the shutdown command in sudoers to not need password, you can then run:   ssh username@server "sudo shutdown -r now"
[13:17] <Yapple> in my case, the laptop only shows the bottom left of the 1920x1080, and the TV mirrors this (but on the top right of itself)
[13:18] <rudolf_> Can applications access internet too if run on wine?
[13:18] <Moonlightning> the encryption passphrase *
[13:18] <Pici> rudolf_: yes
[13:19] <dosequis> quick question here - do user space device drivers override the default behavior of a given device? Or do they run in parallel?
[13:21] <stevenm> Hey why is package 'acpi-support' not installed with ubuntu server but is with ubuntu and xubuntu - is it more of a desktop thing?
[13:22] <stevenm> I thought acpi was just "pc's"  - not specific to just non-servers
[13:22] <arming> hi all
[13:22] <bgardner> stevenm: acpi-support is oriented around suspend/resume/hibernate, lid closure, etc.  Things that servers don't want to be doing.
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> !info acpi-support
[13:23] <stevenm> bgamari, i thought it also did shutdown?
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> stevenm: you could report a bug if you suspect one
[13:23] <arming> is there a glibc-static lib on ubuntu?
[13:23] <stevenm> bgardner, i guess what i'm asking is - if i have a physical server without 'acpi-support' installed... if i push the power button once - will it begin to shut down?
[13:25] <bgardner> stevenm: I don't know.  If I were you, I would test that in a controlled environment with an idle server.
[13:34] <aguitel> what twitter client is working under ubuntu ?
[13:34] <AaronMT> 'Friends', although it's quite bad
[13:34] <adamk_> firefox :-)
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: polly
[13:34] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, thanks
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:conscioususer/polly-daily; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install polly
[13:36] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, ok
[13:40] <DJones> aguitel: Friends works for me
[13:41] <DJones> ActionParsnip: Is polly working for you? I'm using the same ppa but it refuses to connect for me, keeps giving a 410 error
[13:42] <DJones> ActionParsnip: Never mind on that, its just connected for the first time in a week
[13:42] <Orion78> Hi, I use Ubuntu 13.10, today I made an upgrade after something like 3 weeks (or mabye more) of no-upgrade period. After reboot I noticed that my network interface names are no longer renamed according to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. Anybody knows what can be the problem here?
[13:43] <BluesKaj> Orion78, best to ask in #ubuntu+1
[13:43] <DJones> Orion78: Support for 13.10 is currently in #ubuntu+1 until the final release
[13:44] <Orion78> BluesKaj, DJones: Thank you!
[13:47] <aguitel> DJones, how instal it ?
[13:54] <rschmitty> how could i find who provides a package?
[13:54] <somsip> rschmitty: !find {app}
[13:54] <somsip> rschmitty: or do you mean, who maintanis it?
[13:55] <rschmitty> ya, maintainer so i can see if they have bug tracking or such
[13:55] <rschmitty> !find unattended-upgrades
[13:55] <somsip> rschmitty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[13:55] <Pici> !bugs
[13:56] <rschmitty> thanks
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> DJones: i dont use a twitter client, I just use the web ui. I dont care about twitter enough to need an app
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> i have never used twitter or facebook
[14:13] <nanyaks_> need to check the all connections to my system...any ideas?
[14:13] <MonkeyDust> nanyaks_  "all connections to my system" is a bit vague
[14:13] <Moonlightning> nanyaks_: netstat maybe?
[14:14] <nanyaks_> I just made a bluetooth connection to my system and i dont know how i can monitor it from my system terminal
[14:15] <ammini> hciconfig ?
[14:17] <Mage_Dude> I'm trying to use boot repair to fix a VirtualBox image. I've run boot repair and have the system info. A basic repair didn't work because it said I needed to enable the apt repository that contains grub2. The problem is that the universe repositories are enabled. Not sure what to do.
[14:17] <spidernik84> hey there. Anyone who has a system76 laptop? Any good/bad experiences?
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> spidernik84  ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: you can chroot from liveCD, probably easir
[14:18] <spidernik84> MonkeyDust, thanks. Wasn't aware it existed. Good to know!
[14:19] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: I've gotten to a terminal from the livecd, but it keeps wanting to repartition everything and wipe the data.
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: not if you chroot
[14:23] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: Which would be the 'rescue a broken system' option right?
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: omgubuntu has a great how o called: sticking it to grub
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: no, it's not an 'option' its a series of commands, your terminal will then be acting on the installed OS
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: and you can run all sorts of commands and manipulate grub and so forth
[14:25] <urbanslug> hey are any of you guys interested in open GL games?  I want to learn but I'm in need of some advise.
[14:26] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: Those require the desktop version of the livecd don't they?
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: not specifically, you can do it in another TTY on the server install CD
[14:38] <folorn> could anyone help me with a small problem : im trying to find the file path to gringotss if i apt-get installed it

[14:46] <MathCubes> Can anyone help me?
[14:46] <DJones> MathCubes: You need to ask your question first
[14:46] <MathCubes> I need to get viedos divers for my laptop.
[14:46] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[14:46] <MathCubes> here I need the Linux Versions
[14:47] <MathCubes> I got the intel one on here
[14:48] <MathCubes> @DJones Can you help me with that?
[14:49] <adamk_> MathCubes: Is X currently running?
[14:49] <MathCubes> yes
[14:49] <adamk_> Pastebin your current /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
[14:49] <MathCubes> humm.
[14:50] <MathCubes> what with /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:50] <adamk_> Install pastebinit and run 'pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
[14:51] <JoeDM> MathCube do you know which video chipset is in your laptop? Dell have 6 listed
[14:51] <MathCubes> humm
[14:51] <adamk_> Which is why I'm asking for the Xorg log file.
[14:51] <MathCubes> Intel® Sandybridge Mobile
[14:51] <JoeDM> Its either going to be nVidia or intel. If its nVidia they usually have drivers on their website
[14:51] <MathCubes> Intel® Core™ i5-2430M CPU @ 2.40GHz × 4
[14:51] <adamk_> I'd like to see what GPU is involved (or GPUs) and what problem you're trying to fix here.
[14:52] <Mage_Dude> If  have a drive mounted that contains the grub files, can I just install grub onto that?
[14:52] <MathCubes> No
[14:52] <Mage_Dude> Crappy.
[14:53] <JoeDM> I install grub to the MBR of the same drive with grub files
[14:53] <MathCubes> Yes I have a 32 gb sd card but It have all of my stuff on it.
[14:54] <val___> hello
[14:54] <ZestyLemon> hey
[14:54] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: It's a server install so AFAIK there's a separate sda partition that contains the grub files
[14:54] <ZestyLemon> sorry I'm on Windows 95
[14:54] <crystal77> I cannot figure out how to compress an archive. tar -czfv filename.tar.gz directory/ gives a "Cannot stat: No such file or directory".  If I do "tar -cvzf wp-content.tar.gz" instead, it works. I guess the order of flags matter?
[14:56] <saiarcot895> Switch f requires a file name
[14:56] <k1l_> MathCubes: there is no need to install a driver for the intel ones. intel works with the community to put the drivers into the kernel
[14:57] <crystal77> Ahh, so f has to go last. It thinks v is the filename, that's why a file called "v" keeps being created...
[14:57] <MathCubes> @adamk_ and when I run a game at first i got 100 - 130 fps then it drop to 1 - 5.  ON windows it stay at 100 - 120 Fps that Why.
[14:57] <k1l_> MathCubes: grab the logs from that game /systemlog what causes the drop
[14:58] <MathCubes> It is all games
[14:58] <k1l_> MathCubes: and most steam games require a seperate video card like amd or nvidia
[14:58] <MathCubes> that is med-high graftics
[14:59] <Mage_Dude> I mounted the wrong partition sda instead of something else, umount didn't remove it. Is there a particular flag that needs to be added to remove it?
[14:59] <MathCubes> I have Intel and With windows i get 100 - 120 fps for hours with Linux it is only for 3 min and it drop to 3 - 1 fps.
[15:00] <JoeDM> MathCubes try installing sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
[15:00] <crystal77> saiarcot895: Thanks man! :)
[15:00] <MathCubes> I did
[15:00] <saiarcot895> crystal77: you're welcome
[15:01] <k1l_> MathCubes: repeating that will not help your problem. get the logs to show what causes the drop
[15:01] <MathCubes> I try this http://goof848.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/how-to-setup-ubuntu-11-10-on-a-inspiron-17r-n7110/
[15:01] <JoeDM> you can try installing the drivers from intel
[15:01] <JoeDM> https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=13815&lang=eng
[15:01] <MathCubes> but that only made my system to go to Low Grifics mode
[15:02] <JoeDM> k1l_ he did https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=13815&lang=eng
[15:02] <adamk_> MathCubes: Then you didn't install them properly.
[15:02] <MathCubes> yes
[15:02] <JoeDM> sorry he posted here http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780703/
[15:02] <adamk_> I find it very doubtful that newer drivers from intel are going to help.
[15:02] <k1l_> well, than he should ask intel what is wrong with their driver
[15:02] <MathCubes> and one of them have a bad ppa
[15:03] <MathCubes> I did get the intel diver installed
[15:03] <MathCubes> How do I get the logs for the games?
[15:04] <MathCubes> I play xonotic and red ecipes
[15:04] <JoeDM> Mage_Dude you can't unmount a partition that is in use
[15:04] <JoeDM> there is a way to kill everything though
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: did you by any chance ad the xorg edgers ppa like steam seems to think is a good idea?
[15:04] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: I think I've done enough to kill everything. Trying to not kill it more
[15:05] <MathCubes> ActionPArsnip I don't know what you are talking about!!!!?!
[15:05] <MathCubes> How do I add them?
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: when the steam app runs it mentions xorg edgers to get bleeding edge (unstable drivers and Xorg), did you install these?
[15:06] <MathCubes> No
[15:07] <n00b1> Hello, I'm having problem with GRUB .. during boot it only displays "GRUB loading.  _ "
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: good
[15:07] <n00b1> that's all
[15:07] <n00b1> can anybody help me pleae
[15:07] <arming> which package provides  full set of libc headers on ubuntu
[15:09] <MathCubes> IS ANYONE HELPING ME?
[15:09] <saiarcot895> n00b1: I'm no expert on grub, but you might have to start Ubuntu on a Live CD/USB and fix the GRUB data/bootloader using Boot Repair
[15:09] <JoeDM> Mage_Dude have you tried "fuser -km /mnt/share" followed by the unmount. This should stop every process accessing the drive
[15:10] <xlaire> i have problem, dunno how to change drive to my memory stic
[15:10] <xlaire> how to do that
[15:10] <n00b1> I have done that
[15:10] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: Well, that might not even matter anymore. In looking at fdisk, my main partition...doesn't have a partition table!?
[15:10] <n00b1> I installed ubuntu on usb and plugged it in and reboot
[15:11] <n00b1> still the same
[15:12] <JoeDM> n00b1 what did you install GRUB to?
[15:12] <xlaire> ?
[15:13] <adamk_> MathCubes: I recommend trying another 3D game that isn't as hard on the GPU and see if the problem persists.  Something like neverball.
[15:13] <JoeDM> can you try inserting the ubuntu CD then at the menu select "Boot from first hard drive" This should boot a grub for you at which point you should be able to boot the system and check grub config.
[15:13] <MathCubes> It work just fine under windows.
[15:13] <Jikag> I am receiving a report from a user that they are unable to disable DHCP, he says " As soon as I change the setting from DHCP to  manual, the button at the bottom of the window that says "Save" greys  out and can not be selected."
[15:13] <JoeDM> if not then Rescue Mode
[15:13] <MathCubes> And I want to play with my friends
[15:13] <Jikag> Does anyone know what might be common cause of this?
[15:14] <adamk_> MathCubes: This is not windows, so the fact that it works there is completely irrelevent.
[15:14] <Adrian179> Hello
[15:14] <JoeDM> Jikag he needs to put in a valid static setting to save the configuration
[15:14] <adamk_> MathCubes: Again, try a simpler game just to see what happens./
[15:14] <Adrian179> Does anybody knows how to configur Coova Chilli?
[15:14] <Jikag> JoeDM: Thanks
[15:14] <MathCubes> I know but you are sying it is the cpu but... if it was then why does windows run it just fine?
[15:15] <MathCubes> I will try neverball one
[15:15] <Adrian179> Hmm...?
[15:15] <JoeDM> you can disable the interface by modifying the /etc/network/interface file. add a "#" before the word "auto ethX"
[15:15] <adamk_> MathCubes: I said nothing about your CPU.
[15:15] <MathCubes> gpu
[15:15] <adamk_> And, in case you hadn't noticed, Windows uses a different graphics system than Linux, and therefore uses different drivers.
[15:16] <JoeDM> then you need to restart networking by either "service networking restart" or "/etc/init.d/networking restart"
[15:16] <xlaire> in terminal how to change drive to my memory stick'
[15:16] <Adrian179> or just ifupethX
[15:16] <MonkeyDust> Adrian179  try ##networking
[15:16] <Adrian179> Join ##networking
[15:17] <JoeDM> Question, How do you address a message to a user in this forum
[15:17] <vtrr> if anyone's interested in 20gb cloud storage: https://copy.com?r=MoOiFE
[15:18] <GiBy> Hi
[15:18] <Adrian179> Hi GiBy
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: doesn't disable it, it just isnt brought up at boot time :)
[15:19] <adamk_> JoeDM: This isn't a forum, it's IRC :-)  You type the person's nick, followed by a colon or comma usually, and then say what you want...  If you want to send a message that only that user can see, you use the /msg command. You really should not do that without asking the user first.  There are lots of good tutorials on using IRC on the internet.
[15:19] <JoeDM> adamk_: thanks
[15:20] <JoeDM> ActionParsnip' Good enough :)
[15:22] <MathCubes> Same but It took longerwith neverball and it wasn't as bad
[15:22] <GiBy> I never use ubuntu (I tried, but never satisfy) .... Actually whille on IRC talking about translation somewhere else... someone took a po file as template... It was a very old one of a project I translated years ago... he told me he has got it on ubuntu... Could you please update the game supertux?
[15:22] <MathCubes> IS ANYONR HELPING ME?
[15:23] <JoeDM> on the topic of IRC is there a way to disable notifications for everyone joining and leaving... my screen is too cluttered to read anything
[15:23] <JoeDM> :(
[15:23] <DJones> JoeDM: Which irc client are you using
[15:24] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Sorry I have always disliked graphics drivers. Not sure what you should do. I use shell for everything
[15:24] <adamk_> MathCubes: If you yell, no one is likely to help you.
[15:24] <MathCubes> I am using openbox and to play games too
[15:24] <JoeDM> DJones: web based one that was linked on ubuntu homepage
[15:25] <JoeDM> MathCubes: What was the exact problem, I came in half way.
[15:25] <MathCubes> Okay JoeDm, When I plays Game in 3 mins. in the drop to 3-1 fps from 100-200 fps.
[15:25] <DJones> JoeDM: webchat.freenode.net ?
[15:26] <MathCubes> @JoeDM Okay JoeDm, When I plays Game in 3 mins. in the drop to 3-1 fps from 100-200 fps.
[15:27] <Adrian179> Does anybody know how to configure CoovaChilli?
[15:27] <DJones> JoeDM: If it is, can you see the IRC dropdown menu in the top left, click that and go to Options, there is a tick box to hide joins/parts/quits
[15:27] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Sorry, Not sure. Sounds like the drivers are okay if the game can start. I dunno where to troubleshoot from there.
[15:28] <Magicarp> I'm trying to use parted to recover several lost partitions. I said to start at 0 and it's recovered one partition but how do I say go on to find the others?
[15:28] <MathCubes> But What diver Do I need? I have my intel viedo diver
[15:28] <JoeDM> DJones: Thanks, I looked there twice before but am obviously blind. Much more clear now.
[15:28] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[15:28] <adamk_> MathCubes: You are using the correct driver for your GPU.
[15:29] <JoeDM> MathCubes: In my experiance ubuntu default drivers should be fine for intel
[15:29] <adamk_> Do not download/install anything from Dell.
[15:29] <adamk_> MathCubes: If you absolutely want to try a newer driver, grab the one directly from Intel and hope for the best.
[15:29] <MathCubes> Humm Did not install one for the GPU
[15:29] <MathCubes> I did
[15:30] <adamk_> And if the problem persisted, then report it as a bug.
[15:30] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Is it lagging 1-3 mins into the game because that is when you get into action? the graphics chip you are using are only the ones built into the CPU and are not very powerful.
[15:30] <MathCubes> JoeDM but the games just work fine under windows it most be diver
[15:31] <JoeDM> MathCubes: are the games native to linux. e.g. not running on WINE?
[15:31] <MathCubes> Native to Linux I don't use Wine
[15:32] <lshkn> hi all, anybody know how not to drop ACL after calling chmod() ?
[15:32] <MathCubes> What GPU Do I have?
[15:33] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Looks like just the CPU which includes an Intel Graphics card
[15:33] <Adrian179> MathCubes:God knows!!!!
[15:33] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[15:33] <Adrian179> :)
[15:34] <MathCubes> But what command can I do in the terminal so I can know what one I have?
[15:34] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: sudo lshw -C display
[15:34] <lshkn> or can anyone recommend good IRC with Linux developers
[15:34] <Ari-Yang> is there a apt-get command where it uninstalls but then installs the target package?
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lshkn: #c++
[15:34] <Lars_G> Why am I getting a "different" LC_ALL (and it modifies all my locales) if I'm setting LANG on etc/default (to the same locale, different encoding, latin1), and I don't see LC_ALL being set anywhere in /etc ?
[15:34] <Ari-Yang> like a quick remove and then a quick install right after?
[15:35] <MathCubes> Is this What I am looking for http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man4/intel.4.html?
[15:35] <lshkn> ActionParsnip: tnx
[15:35] <saiarcot895> Ari-Yang: I use Synaptic for that
[15:36] <Ari-Yang> what about in terminal?
[15:36] <adamk_> MathCubes: Your Xorg log file will tell you: Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile (GT2)
[15:36] <MathCubes> okay
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[15:37] <Ari-Yang> !reinstall
[15:37] <MathCubes> Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[15:37] <JoeDM> Hi Guys, Whats the best way to modprobe on startup. I am installing SCST and the modules are not reloading when i reboot. I tried to do a update-initramfs -u -k $(uname -r)
[15:37] <Enje> testing
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: have you tried with xfce desktop instead of gnome?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: you can add it in /etc/modules
[15:38] <MathCubes> I have use LXDE, Openbox, Gnome Fallback, Unity,....
[15:38] <MathCubes> I am useing OpenBox
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: all the same I guess :(
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> <3 openbox
[15:39] <JoeDM> ActionParsnip: Thanks that looks perfect :)
[15:39] <Ari-Yang> brb
[15:39] <Lars_G> Why am I getting a "different" LC_ALL (and it modifies all my locales) if I'm setting LANG on etc/default (to the same locale, different encoding, latin1), and I don't see LC_ALL being set anywhere in /etc ?
[15:41] <MathCubes> Can someone looks for a  Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile (GT2)  gpu diver for me?
[15:41] <MathCubes> 13.04
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: its in a default install
[15:41] <MathCubes> okay
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: you could try making an xorg.conf file to specify better settings
[15:42] <MathCubes> How Do i do that?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: with blood, sweat and tears. Its not a simple file to make, there are lots of guides around the web#
[15:42] <Magicarp> I'm trying to use parted to recover a partition. I know the slice was right at the end of the disk but I don't know it's beginning. How can I recover it?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: its very documented
[15:42] <Lars_G> ActionParsnip: At least we're over the modelines era. Mostly
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: oh man, that is my vietnam
[15:43] <MathCubes> Can you do it for me? :) :) :P
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: I can give you one I use on my nvidia gpu, you will need to switch the resolutions and so forth, then see what exta options the intel driver will take
[15:44] <MathCubes> okay
[15:44] <MathCubes> link please
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780815
[15:44] <Lars_G> ActionParsnip: Don't. He'll blame you for any troubles. And doign so without an "Xorg -configure" starting point will be tedious
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf    to get write access, you may need t drop to root recovery mode to rename the file to get back the desktop
[15:45] <MathCubes> oaky
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: mine's pretty stock really
[15:46] <Lars_G> Well I'll give up
[15:46] <Lars_G> I'll stick LC_ALL into /etc/environment and be done
[15:46] <MathCubes> SO I can't fix my issure :(
[15:47] <Ari-Yang> how do I make a newly installed window manager my default?
[15:47] <Umar> how do i locate a printer connected to my computer through usb ? need to locate the printer while configuring the printer ,on Ubuntu 13.01
[15:47] <Lars_G> MathCubes: Why not?
[15:48] <MathCubes> well no ones is talling me how to fix it
[15:48] <genii> Ari-Yang: Normally if you choose it from the login, it will be the default choice until you choose something else
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> genii, what? I thought that was selecting which desktop environment
[15:48] <k1l_> Ari-Yang: choose that on the login screen
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> oh
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> soryr
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> I meant file maanger
[15:49] <Lars_G> MathCubes: That's not true... you have shared no problem as far as I've seen. You asked a question, ActionParsnip responded more than kindly and reteratively. Saddly "type every letter for me, without no information at all" is not something solvable
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> * manager
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> not window manager
[15:49] <FloodBot1> Ari-Yang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:49] <Magicarp> Umar there's a utility in the dash simply called 'printers' does it not show up in there?
[15:49] <adamk_> Lars_G: He's been talking about his problem for a while now...
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> yeah, how do I make a file manager default?
[15:49] <Lars_G> adamk_: Sorry I missed it.
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> like thunar
[15:49] <MathCubes> okay
[15:49] <Umar> yes
[15:49] <Lars_G> MathCubes: Sorry I missed it.
[15:49] <Umar> @magicarp yes
[15:50] <adamk_> And I'm doubtful anyone other than one of the intel driver developers could really be of much assistance...
[15:50] <MathCubes> I will give you the info just tell me what you need.
[15:50] <Lars_G> No, just tell me, what's the issue
[15:50] <Umar> what device do i select for a printer connected to usb port ?
[15:51] <MathCubes> When I run a game for 3 min then it drop down to 3-1 fps from 100-150 fps.
[15:52] <Lars_G> MathCubes: .... yes. that will be an extremely complicated issue to resolve. :(
[15:52] <readyjar> Anyone have trouble getting dual monitors of different resolutions working in 13.04?
[15:52] <adamk_> readyjar: Nope, works fine here on a few different machines.
[15:52] <MathCubes> okay do you want to use team viewer to fix it?
[15:52] <readyjar> adamk_: Any of them laptops?
[15:53] <adamk_> readyjar: Yes.
[15:53] <k1l_> readyjar: depends on your video card, the driver and the solutions you want
[15:53] <k1l_> *resolutions
[15:53] <readyjar> I know the video card supports both resolutions. I do it on windows install just fine
[15:54] <adamk_> readyjar: So what happens when you try?
[15:54] <k1l_> readyjar: which video card, which driver, which resolutions? ,...?
[15:54] <readyjar> adamk_: Sometimes it works for a minute, but once I try to move anything to the second monitor the display crashes and then reverts back to mirrored
[15:55] <readyjar> Then after that it won't work at all unless I reboot
[15:55] <adamk_> readyjar: Yikes, never heard of that happening...
[15:55] <readyjar> k1l_: It's a Radeon HD6370
[15:56] <adamk_> readyjar: Using the open source drivers?
[15:56] <k1l_> hmm, well im not familiar with ati. i have no problem with my nvidia and the nvidia-current with that setup
[15:56] <readyjar> adamk_: I am. There are two available proprietary drivers I haven't yet tested
[15:57] <MathCubes> So no one can help me?
[15:57] <readyjar> MathCubes: What's up?
[15:58] <MathCubes> good
[15:58] <readyjar> MathCubes: No what did you need help with?
[15:58] <adamk_> readyjar: Well this sounds a whole lot like a driver bug to me...  I'd confirm that it works fine with the open source driver and, if so, report this to AMD.
[15:58] <deadweasel> MathCubes> When I run a game for 3 min then it drop down to 3-1 fps from 100-150 fps.
[15:58] <MathCubes> My issure is when I run a game for 3-6 min the fps drops from 100-150 to 3-5 then to 1 fps.
[15:58] <bazhang> MathCubes, is this game in wine, yes
[15:59] <DeLorean731> I have followed a few guides to get Java apps to work within Firefox and I can't seem to get them to work. Is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Firefox 21.0
[15:59] <adamk_> MathCubes: It is *really* unlikely anyone here is going to be able to fix what seems to be, by all appearances, a bug with the intel driver.
[15:59] <MathCubes> So I can't get help :'(
[16:00] <bazhang> MathCubes, which game, in wine, or not
[16:00] <Umar> i have launched the hp printer application , it says no printer found on USB bus , what do i do ? i have connected the printer to USB of the computer ,and USB port is also working properly.
[16:00] <adamk_> Not.
[16:00] <bazhang> DeLorean731, which java apps
[16:00] <Ari-Yang> so, how do I set a file manager to default on ubuntu (12.10)?
[16:00] <readyjar> MathCubes: Linux isn't quite up to being able to play games comfortably
[16:00] <MathCubes> not help... humm have it to be fixed.
[16:00] <DeLorean731> bazhang: there was a chat room and a java game that wouldn't work that I've tried so far
[16:00] <deadweasel> MathCubes: stop playing whatever you're playing and start playing Urban Terror 4.02.
[16:00] <MathCubes> NAtive
[16:00] <bazhang> DeLorean731, which exact game please
[16:00] <Umar> admk is that not for me ?
[16:00] <DeLorean731> Drakensang.com
[16:00] <FX6300> Can you recover a partition using Parted if you don't know it's start position on the disk?
[16:00] <MathCubes> any 3d game or high 2d game
[16:01] <adamk_> Umar: It's not.
[16:01] <Umar> k,anybody else please help me.
[16:01] <DeLorean731> bazhang: fogot to ping you... in case you rely on that, www.drakensang.com
[16:02] <JoeDM> Does anybody here know much about SCST. I'm having troubles where it does not reload the /etc/scst.conf on reboot?
[16:02] <bazhang> DeLorean731, needs to be registered it seems
[16:02] <MathCubes> xonotic, neverball, red ecpics, open ...
[16:02] <DeLorean731> bazhang: www.teenspot.com was the chat room I was trying to get into as well, I dont' think that requires registration
[16:03] <JoeDM> alternatively is there a way to run a comman like "scstadmin -write_config /etc/scst.conf" on reboot prior to login?
[16:03] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  in crontab, use @reboot
[16:03] <DeLorean731> bazhang: meh nevermind, looks like registration IS required
[16:03] <DeLorean731> bazhang: want me to give you a registration login I don't care about?
[16:04] <JoeDM> MonkeyDusk: I have heard about crontab but have never used. I'll google it now :)
[16:04] <bazhang> DeLorean731, no thanks, thats all right
[16:04] <MathCubes> bye
[16:04] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  sudo crontab -e     then add      @reboot [command]
[16:07] <JoeDM> MonkeyDust: Rebooting now to test. Crontab looks really easy to use. I've been missing out all this time :D
[16:07] <robertzaccour> Is it possible to make certain apps use more RAM in exchange for using less processing power?
[16:08] <JoeDM> robertzaccour: RAM and Processing power are two different things that are in no way interchangable
[16:08] <jrib> robertzaccour: in some basic cases that may be possible at the algorithm level but I doubt it would be exposed in most applications.   Its impossible to record screencast smoothly with more than one video source on the screen at a time.
[16:09] <Afggh> Hi guys
[16:09] <robertzaccour> jrib, ^
[16:09] <robertzaccour> 2 up
[16:10] <JoeDM> robertzaccour: If you want really smooth screen recording you can get dedicated recording cards. Obviously that cost money though :(
[16:10] <Afggh> Which pdf reader is the best for ubuntu with features comparable to adobe acrobat?
[16:10] <bazhang> Afggh, acroread
[16:10] <nevyn> robertzaccour: wayland will fix it *duck&
[16:10] <bazhang> !info partner acroread | Afggh
[16:10] <elisa871> Hi do you know what should I do if  bash: apt-get: command not found ??
[16:10] <bazhang> augh
[16:10] <bazhang> !info acroread partner
[16:11] <robertzaccour> JoeDM, it does fine with one video at a time, but to record my mug at the same time I have to use my camcorder set up behind my laptop and then edit together in Kdenlive
[16:11] <bazhang> Afggh, ^
[16:11] <jrib> elisa871: output of « ls /usr/bin/apt-get »?
[16:11] <metaphysician> Afggh: give Evince a try
[16:11] <robertzaccour> nevyn, Is it possible to go ahead and test wayland for myself?
[16:11] <robertzaccour> nevyn, or Mir, whichever comes first.
[16:11] <JoeDM> MonkeyDust: Hi Sorry, The command did not run on start. Does it need to be inside of a script or can i feed it a raw command?
[16:11] <elisa871> jrib ls: cannot access /usr/bin/apt*: No such file or directory
[16:11] <Afggh> Ok...thanks a lot bazhang, metaphysician
[16:12] <jrib> elisa871: this isn't what I asked you to type
[16:12] <elisa871> jrib: ls: cannot access /usr/bin/apt-get: No such file or directory
[16:12] <jrib> elisa871: and you have no idea why?
[16:12] <nevyn> robertzaccour: so wayland should make it better but might make it worse (in particular it's not clear that there's a mechinism to extract video data from accelerated playback paths)
[16:13] <robertzaccour> nevyn, Do you know if I can go ahead and test out wayland?
[16:13] <elisa871> This is a disk image I have downloaded which has gcc 4.1.2 so I needed to install gcc 4.6 or 4.7 on it the problem is that it doesn't even have apt-get when I chroot to it..
[16:14] <adamk_> elisa871: Wait...  Is this Ubuntu?
[16:14] <nevyn> robertzaccour: I don't believe wayland is currently dogfood let alone alpha
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  raw command should work, I use    @reboot rm -r /home/username/.cache
[16:15] <elisa871> adamk_: that's what I am unsure Linux HP 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 17 18:16:28 UTC 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux!!!
[16:16] <DJones> robertzaccour: As I understand it, wayland has been scrapped from an Ubuntu point of view
[16:16] <elisa871> because I merged the disk image with an empty Ubuntu disk image I created adamk_
[16:16] <jrib> elisa871: you should complain to whoever created/gave you the image
[16:16] <elisa871> using rsync
[16:17] <Gyndawyr> hey guys do you know where I can find support for tails linux?
[16:17] <bazhang> !alis | Gyndawyr
[16:18] <Gyndawyr> yeah erm could you just tell me?
[16:18] <bazhang> Gyndawyr, yeah, use alis to search
[16:19] <Gyndawyr> I've never used alis.
[16:19] <Mrokii> Hello. What could be the reason that a burned CD (not burned by me) only shows as a "UDF Volume" but when I click it in Nautilus, it shows no contents?
[16:19] <bazhang> Gyndawyr, please ask for assistance in #freenode then
[16:19] <Gyndawyr> very well
[16:21] <teamcoltra_noaut> My mac doesn't seem to like booting from the ISO transfered to USB through startup creator, but it did boot through the usb drive that was created when in the Mac OS -- So I was thinking I would try the same process I used on the mac (convert the .iso to .img and then dd the img to USB), however, I can't find any instructions on how to transfer a .img file to USB
[16:22] <teamcoltra_noaut> Could I just run dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN bs=1M
[16:22] <teamcoltra_noaut> if so how do I find what /dev/disk# my USB drive is
[16:23] <elisa871> I am trying to download something with wget and I receive this error: Resolving archive.ubuntu.com... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution.

[16:34] <KrisHansen> ikonia: not exactly nut yes
[16:35] <ikonia> KrisHansen: maybe why don't you ask people "I hve this problem...can you help" rather than making up random things like "people are hacking me" so people don't waste time trying to get information for a false problem, like I've just done
[16:35] <wooo> I want to open /dev/block/ files...but its showing me error..."could not open file"
[16:35] <wooo> how to open those ?

[16:51] <oal> Hmm. Any shortcuts using ctrl+shift+something only work when I press the ctrl key first, and then shift etc. Any ideas why that would happen..?

[16:53] <panthrax> Hi. Made the switch to Lubuntu today, but having some wireless issues. Was hoping I could get some help?
[16:54] <chro> when I start a session just with a certain user I got the following message: "The program 'screen' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:" Where is this coming from ?
[16:55] <DJones> panthrax: Explain your problem in a bit more detail, if anybody see's the question and can help, they normally reply
[16:57] <panthrax> Well I have a Broadcom BCM4306 network card which wasn't recognized by Lubuntu at first. Following a guide I found, I installed the drivers and firmware for it and now Lubuntu recognizes my wireless network and even lets me connect to it, but that's about it. I can't view websites at all. I've tried pinging some major websites like Google and I get nothing. I tried changing the DNS addresses to an open DNS (<IP_ADDRESS>) and still nothing
[16:57] <panthrax> I'm stumped.
[16:57] <panthrax> Being completely new to Linux, I have no idea where to go next.
[17:00] <MonkeyDust> panthrax  use ethernet to get familiar with ubuntu linux
[17:00] <qwebirc67388>  panthrax > what step was your last successful one ?
[17:00] <matbee> Hey-- occasionally while browsing the web or whatever, my laptop stops responding to input-- (or getting to it really slowly). I check my terminal logs and I'm getting "write error on swap device", but I'm running an SSD.
[17:00] <MonkeyDust> panthrax  THEN struggle with wifi
[17:01] <matbee> Any ideas what could be causing this?
[17:01] <compdoc> matbee, did you set up the partitions manually?
[17:02] <compdoc> matbee, what does SMART say about the health of the drive?
[17:02] <LiquidDemocracy> Is it possible for the NSA and other undemocratic government agencies to  manipulate the Ubuntu repositories? Ubuntu is a company after all.
[17:02] <matbee> compdoc, Yes, I did, but the swap partition is just my main /
[17:02] <wilee-nilee> !ot | LiquidDemocracy
[17:02] <MonkeyDust> LiquidDemocracy  #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:02] <matbee> compdoc, I'll check SMART now
[17:02] <MonkeyDust> wilee-nilee  was faster :)
[17:02] <k1l_> LiquidDemocracy: that topic suits better into the offtopic channel : #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss
[17:03] <DeLorean731> I have followed a few guides to get Java apps to work within Firefox and I can't seem to get them to work. Is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Firefox 21.0
[17:03] <histo> LiquidDemocracy: the packages are open source so you can review the code for anything out of place yourself.
[17:03] <LiquidDemocracy> I am looking for support to protect myself against illegal government spy activities. Could anybody please help?
[17:03] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, yeah, in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:03] <panthrax> sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43legacy-installer    -   That's what made my broadcom network card to even be recognized. From there, I have had no further successes. I installed those, restarted, and my wireless was suddenly available. I entered in my key and it connected, but when I tried to view a webpage, I got nothing. Curious, I tried pinging some websites and I got nothing.
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, is ubuntu-offtopic a support channel?
[17:04] <K4k> no
[17:04] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, your question isnot
[17:04] <k1l_> LiquidDemocracy: you have no technical support question.
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, why is it not?
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, security questions are not allowed in here?
[17:04] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, lets move on please
[17:04] <ikonia> LiquidDemocracy: here is your answer "no" it's not possible for the gonvernment to tamper with it. There is your answer
[17:04] <compdoc> LiquidDemocracy, what on earth makes you think that you and your activities are important enough to have the NSA monitor you?
[17:05] <thecodeischaos> how can i mount a ntfs usb in ubuntu?

[17:21] <bgardner> panthrax: Looks like you picked up an IP from DHCP.  If you got that far, the issue may not be the wireless.
[17:22] <Guest64570> reisio,any luck?
[17:22] <panthrax> So do you have any suggestions on what I can do, if it's not wireless?
[17:22] <reisio> Guest64570: with?
[17:22] <Guest64570> reisio, with the external thing
[17:23] <reisio> Guest64570: what displays section are you talking about?
[17:23] <bgardner> panthrax: PM me and we'll work on it.  No need to put all our noise on the channel.

[17:27] <Guest64570> reisio, got that but i should not be able to use it only with the intel gpu?
[17:28] <reisio> Guest64570: you definitely should, but I couldn't speak to whether you will be able to perfectly out of the box

[17:40] <hannah8> when installing ubuntu alongside windows (on same comp) is there risk of losing windows data? is windows backup necessary/recommended/unnecessary?
[17:41] <holstein> hannah8: i would *always* backup data.. think of it this way.. the hard drive you are on *will* fail, so making a backup is a good step regardless
[17:41] <reisio> hannah8: mostly just risk in human error
[17:42] <ghost_> join #ubuntu-ru
[17:42] <SaxX> Hi all
[17:42] <reisio> yup, for all hard drives but mine, it's true, they fail

[17:42] <SaxX> when I type evince myfile.pdf
[17:42] <SaxX> i got an error
[17:43] <hannah8> yes i understand backup is always important but just wanted to understand if when installing ubuntu alongside windows risk of losing data is particularly high or not
[17:43] <mgriffin> 12:41 <reisio> hannah8: mostly just risk in human error
[17:43] <reisio> for example, don't tell Ubuntu's installer to install over your Windows partition/s
[17:44] <reisio> etc.
[17:44] <SaxX> is there anyone who have encountered the same matter?
[17:44] <reisio> SaxX: does evince not open?
[17:44] <mgriffin> SaxX: which error?
[17:44] <SaxX> it doesn't reisio
[17:45] <SaxX> this one mgriffin but in french
[17:45] <SaxX> La ligne de commande « dbus-launch --autolaunch=995644fc9e18514d4cfdbe440000000e --binary-syntax --close-stderr » s'est terminée avec un code de fin non nul 1 : No protocol specified\nNo protocol specified\nAutolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.\n
[17:45] <SaxX> No protocol specified
[17:45] <SaxX> No protocol specified
[17:45] <SaxX> Cannot parse arguments: Impossible d'ouvrir l'affichage :
[17:45] <FloodBot1> SaxX: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:45] <hannah8> so if ubuntu installer gets correct input risk of losing windows data is zero or i mean same as always, correct?
[17:45] <joelwallis> Hi. I need to perform some commands when the Ubuntu graphical interface starts (I'm using 13.04 desktop version). I need to mound --bind some paths of my secondary HD into my /home folder. In which file should I put this command?
[17:45] <reisio> SaxX: evince doesn't not open?
[17:46] <SaxX> no it's doesn't open
[17:46] <reisio> k
[17:46] <mgriffin> SaxX: did you ssh in to this server or something? is this just a normal terminal in Gnome or whatever
[17:46] <reisio> SaxX: does 'file foo.pdf' say it's a PDF?
[17:46] <mgriffin> SaxX: tried xeyes or something simple?
[17:46] <SaxX> it's on my local machine mgriffin
[17:47] <SaxX> yes reisio when i type file foo.pdf it's says that
[17:48] <reisio> SaxX: what about if you run evince and manually CTRL+o open it?
[17:49] <SaxX> i am going to test it reisio and tell you
[17:49] <reisio> okely dokely
[17:50] <SaxX> huum maybe a stupid question coming from me
[17:50] <SaxX> but how do i run manually evince reisio
[17:50] <SaxX> ?
[17:50] <K4k> Does ubottu have some kind of flood protection on it? I'm trying to learn it's commands but it's stopped responding to me.
[17:50] <holstein> SaxX: i would run it from the terminal, and see if there are helpful errors
[17:51] <holstein> K4k: query the bot
[17:51] <K4k> holstein: I run /msg ubottu *whatever* and I get no message in return. It worked a few times and then stopped
[17:51] <SaxX> you got it holstein
[17:51] <reisio> SaxX: 'evince'
[17:51] <SaxX> when i run it manually i got an error
[17:51] <holstein> K4k: i would just /q him
[17:51] <teamcoltra_noaut> Is there any good way to convert an iso to img in ubuntu? There was a program for it, but it apparently has been pulled
[17:52] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: what do you imagine the difference is?
[17:52] <K4k> holstein: oh, it seems he doesn't respond to some things. Interesting. At first it was saying it didn't know what I was asking and then those same queries stopped returning anything
[17:53] <iceroot> teamcoltra_noaut: an iso is an image
[17:53] <iceroot> teamcoltra_noaut: mv file.iso file.img
[17:53] <teamcoltra_noaut> reisio:  I have no idea, but when I write .img files to my USB drive my mac will boot from them, when I write a .iso file it will not
[17:53] <ezra-s> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMG_(file_format)
[17:53] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: using what procedure/s?
[17:54] <ezra-s> apple propietary crap
[17:54] <reisio> maybe you mean ".dmg", yeah
[17:54] <reisio> I'm sure Mac OS supports ISO-9660/UDF, too, though
[17:54] <teamcoltra_noaut> reisio:  no, I mean .img
[17:54] <reisio> not that it matters
[17:54] <reisio> that is a problem for #macosx, TBH
[17:55] <ezra-s> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image
[17:55] <reisio> .img is just an extension
[17:55] <reisio> it indicates very little
[17:55] <teamcoltra_noaut> How would it be? if I use DD and go from img to usb drive and that works, but have the same file in iso and it doesn't... it means there has to be some difference.
[17:56] <teamcoltra_noaut> and if there is a program which converts .img to .iso  (which I have found) then I would assume there are at least some differences to the files
[17:56] <reisio> right, it's just that the difference has little to do with the extension :)
[17:56] <hannah8> ok thank you
[17:57] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: try this http://www.google.com/search?q=%22linux%22%20%22iso%20to%20dmg%22
[17:59] <Horb> does anyone have an idea  on how to approach the following, spamming reinstalls and googling has gotten me nowhere, adam@craptop:~$ pavucontrol >>> pavucontrol: error while loading shared libraries: libsigc-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[18:00] <LuNaTiX> I love this new OS
[18:00] <LuNaTiX> never back to windows
[18:01] <LuNaTiX> Just SAYin ^_^
[18:01] <ezra-s> LuNaTiX, any OS has its weaknesses, don't be obfuscated by this technological terror you just discovered! :P
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> I was attacked I believe one night, pc was doing things i never seen in my life do, and my android also
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> switched over to ubuntu , secured my data, backed it up
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> now all my servers and computers will run ubuntu
[18:03] <BluesKaj> ezra-s, linux can be a revelation after using windows for many years
[18:04] <reisio> LuNaTiX: compared to using Windows, a fairly wise choice
[18:05] <LuNaTiX> I know this isnt the place to ask, but I have a php poll setup about a heated topic and I have alot of issues with polls being over run by external votes
[18:05] <Smiche> Hello
[18:05] <LuNaTiX> i been working on trying to make it as fair as possible
[18:06] <LuNaTiX> what channel could i use for assistance in that
[18:06] <ezra-s> BluesKaj, you bet it is... after many years many of us are still seeing the surface of Linux, working with it is amazing
[18:06] <Smiche> Some1 knows whats the behaviour on ubuntu when the gfx card ram or gpu overheats?
[18:06] <Smiche> of*
[18:07] <suore> Hello, need help. i downloaded one game, and game have option of special item. ALT + RCLICK = Showing item top other as clickable link at chat. But ALT moving window. Im Ubuntu 13.04
[18:07] <Smiche> Cause a game im playing is freezing at random moments and sound keeps going on so i guess its my gfx with problem
[18:07] <ezra-s> LuNaTiX, probably seek a channel of the poll software you are using
[18:07] <reisio> suore: yay blogs http://askubuntu.com/questions/70392/how-do-i-disable-the-alt-right-click-keyboard-binding
[18:08] <Smiche> does compiz use any excessive vram or gpu?
[18:08] <Smiche> when not performing any tasks with unity
[18:08] <reisio> I wouldn't say excessive, no
[18:08] <reisio> it uses more than an unaccelerated wm
[18:09] <balthazar> Hey, I just recently installed Ubuntu 64 bit, on my i7 3770k, Sabertooth Z77 motherboard, but I dont even get to the boot menu (GRUB) just totally black. I have tried reinstall it 2 times, but have got same affect after the installation.
[18:09] <balthazar> Does this have anything to do with UEFI / motherboard?
[18:10] <Smiche> reisio couldnt it be the reason for a game to be stucking? at random times, i think its my gfx card getting rid of the vram or overheating no idea
[18:10] <bekks> balthazar: By default, the boot menu is hidden.
[18:10] <bekks> !nomodeset < balthazar
[18:10] <bekks> !nomodeset | balthazar
[18:10] <Smiche> the game just freezes for 4-5 or more seconds and return to normal and my pc is hell hot while im playing it
[18:10] <Smiche> yet ive burned a gfx card and overheated my previous one nothing like this happend
[18:10] <balthazar> bekks: Ok,but nothing it showing up in the screen, it dont even boot ubuntu.
[18:11] <Smiche> when it overheated the pc just froze and neven got back to normal
[18:11] <bekks> balthazar: Thats because of that missing nomodeset option, probably.
[18:12] <ezra-s> Smiche, sounds like gpu fan might not be keeping up to refresh the gpu enough
[18:12] <suore> lol...
[18:12] <balthazar> bekks: ok, but how should i even get the chance to edit nomodeeset option, when it dont even boot and the screen is black :/
[18:12] <Smiche> any solutions to that?
[18:12] <suore> i change to nothinh i cannot now do anything...
[18:12] <Amiga_Wicca> als ik kan de driver van de ati videokaart?
[18:12] <Smiche> the game plays well on windows and with the same fps actually
[18:13] <bekks> balthazar: You have to enter the grub menu.
[18:13] <SonikkuAmerica> !nl | Amiga_Wicca
[18:13] <bekks> balthazar: Which Ubuntu version do you use?
[18:13] <kanha> angela_1: Hi
[18:13] <Amiga_Wicca> gracias =)
[18:13] <balthazar> bekks: yeah, but it seems that i dont have the chance to get to the grub menu
[18:13] <Smiche> well im gonna run the game and check the gpu temp through sensors
[18:13] <cariveri> hi. my aurora engine does not work. who do I speak to?
[18:13] <Smiche> just updating it atm
[18:13] <balthazar> bekks: 13.04
[18:14] <reisio> cariveri: 'does not work'?
[18:14] <bekks> balthazar: So your computer boots, otherwise you wouldnt have been able to install Ubuntu.
[18:14] <bekks> !grub2 | balthazar
[18:14] <Smiche> some1 knows if there's a program checking if all pins on the ide cable to ide are hooked up?
[18:15] <ezra-s> Smiche, I bet noone does
[18:15] <balthazar> bekks: yes it boots, but it seems it dont boot ubuntu and i dont see any "grub" menu ether on start only the manufactor for my motherboard then after that, totally black
[18:15] <reisio> Smiche: -> echo 'use your eyes'
[18:15] <Smiche> my 2nd hdd doesnt seem to work since i unhooked it and hooked it back
[18:15] <cariveri> reisio: yes. all the aurora based themes dont display the proper colors in and icons. its just black. reinstall and make reinstall did not work.
[18:15] <ezra-s> reisio, lol
[18:15] <bekks> Smiche: Technically - thats not possible using "a program".
[18:15] <Smiche> and one pin is a little bit fallen in
[18:15] <Smiche> okay
[18:15] <balthazar> bekks: so how will i be bale to change this line in grub when i cant start ubunut?
[18:15] <ezra-s> Smiche, use a screwdriver to straight it up
[18:15] <Smiche> well i saw an aluminium coil trick so im going to try it
[18:15] <reisio> balthazar: from your install media
[18:16] <bekks> balthazar: You have to enter the grub menu, yes.
[18:16] <Smiche> i used pliers to pull it out
[18:16] <Smiche> but still doesnt work
[18:16] <Smiche> well ill use some coil
[18:16] <bekks> Smiche: Buy a new one.
[18:16] <Smiche> its 80gb and its 8 years old
[18:16] <Smiche> feeling sad for that little thing :(
[18:16] <Smiche> it worked so fine until i broke it
[18:17] <Smiche> wondered if it would hold forever
[18:17] <Smiche> could have kept a windows(yup that 7gb virus) running
[18:17]  * ezra-s slaps Smiche , stop flooding
[18:17] <Smiche> sorry my bad
[18:17] <bekks> Smiche: It doesnt matter in here, since thats offtopic for ubuntu support.
[18:17] <ezra-s> :P
[18:18] <Smiche> okay so on topic -> Ubuntu is awesome
[18:20] <taime1> Hi. When I try to start or restart smbd or nmbd, I get "Unkown job:"  Can someone help me troubleshoot this?
[18:22] <JoeSomebody> what is the tool for ms publisher in linux? (assuming there is one)
[18:22] <ezra-s> taime1, try /etc/init.d/smbd start|stop
[18:22] <ezra-s> taime1, maybe it has not migrated to upstart
[18:22] <taime1> ezra-s: same
[18:23] <ezra-s> taime1, ps auxww | grep -i smbd brings something up?
[18:23] <anonymous_> hi
[18:23] <w30> taime1, mine works ; I type service smbd restart
[18:23] <taime1> ezra-s: lemme check
[18:24] <w30> taime1, as root or sudo of course
[18:24] <Smiche> just checked my sensors the temperature doesnt move and it got stuck again
[18:24] <Smiche> and my monitor restarted
[18:24] <ezra-s> taime1, also do check /var/cache/samba or any related residual files in case the process is not running
[18:25] <abetusk_w__> I'm thinking of buying a printer and using it on my Ubuntu 12.04 box.  Last time I did this was nearly a decade ago and remember having signifcant problem with drivers and such.  Are most of these issues solved now?  Should I be staying away from a particular brand or focusing on a few brands to buy?  Should I expect to install drivers and hack away at it to get it working?
[18:25] <taime1> ezra-s: 781 0.0 0.0 3116 724 pts/2 S+ (color is red)
[18:25] <ezra-s> Smiche, which temperature?
[18:25] <Smiche> the gpu
[18:25] <taime1> abetusk_w__: get a HP
[18:25] <ezra-s> Smiche, which temperature?
[18:25] <Smiche> there isnt a monitor for the video ram or at least i dont know how to show it
[18:25] <Smiche> the gfx card spu stays steadily at 80
[18:25] <abetusk_w__> taime1, dell and lexmark or not as supported?
[18:26] <taime1> abetusk_w__: nope.
[18:26] <ezra-s> mmm, that can be normal in some gpu's
[18:26] <ezra-s> 80ºC I assume
[18:26] <taime1> abetusk_w__: dell: forget it. lexmark: hit or miss. just stick with hp
[18:26] <Smiche> 80 c is pretty normal with my gpu
[18:26] <ezra-s> 80F would be cold hehehe
[18:26] <Smiche> i guess its the vram then
[18:26] <ezra-s> taime1, 781 is the pid? kill it
[18:27] <abetusk_w__> taime1, thanks
[18:28] <samuel> I dont find LAMP in software center,pls guys help
[18:28] <taime1> ezra-s: 781 not running
[18:28] <taime1> abetusk_w__: no problem
[18:29] <Smiche> just messed up some configuration on playonlinux app
[18:29] <tking> hello please how can i copy and paste file to /var/www/ directory without command line?
[18:30] <taime1> tking: gksu nautilus
[18:30] <tking> taimel, i don't want to do it using gksu
[18:30] <tking> i am thinking of giving it the right permission
[18:30] <taime1> tking: what are you trying to do?
[18:31] <tking> taime1, i want to paste file from y desktop to that director
[18:31] <tking> directory*
[18:31] <taime1> then use gksu nautilus
[18:31] <ezra-s> samuel, apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 can get you started with most things you need
[18:34] <samuel> ezra-s,i dont comprehend
[18:35] <dev_> How would I disable MOTD from being rewritten on reboot on 13.04?
[18:35] <taime1> Still getting "Unknown job" when trying to start smbd. Anyone?
[18:35] <ezra-s> samuel, LAMP as I understand it is Linux, Apache, Mysql, PHP.. well, with that command I tell you, you install them
[18:36] <tking> taimel cant i give permistion to the directory???
[18:36] <ezra-s> taime1, if smbd is not up try running it manually instead of the init/upstart script
[18:36] <ezra-s> see what it says when you try to run it
[18:37] <taime1> tking: of course you can, but it has default permissions for a reason. You are making this way too complicated. You could just type gksu nautilus, and paste it in seconds.
[18:37] <tking> gksu or gksudo?
[18:37] <taime1> ezra-s: the upstart script in what directory? sorry for stupid question
[18:37] <tking> one i heard is bad
[18:37] <taime1> tking: i said it three times. gksu
[18:37] <trism> dev_: if you just want to add some static text to the motd, add it to /etc/motd.tail
[18:38] <ezra-s> taime1, in /etc/init.d
[18:38] <ezra-s> taime1, seach for the smbd binary and run it
[18:38] <dev_> trism: Is there a way to prevent all the other system info being appended about .tail on reboot though?
[18:39] <dev_> *above
[18:39] <trism> dev_: it is controlled by the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/, if you chmod -x them they won't run
[18:39] <trism> dev_: though 99-footer is the one that appends motd.tail, so you probably still want that
[18:39] <dev_> trism: I'll give that a go, thanks.

[18:43] <Netfeed> is it possible to "side-upgrade" from linux mint to ubuntu? most of the packages that is used in mint is from unbuntu proper anyways
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> Netfeed  no
[18:45] <Netfeed> how come?
[18:45] <Smiche> theres a way to watch for outprint in terminal for a program that has already been started without terminal?
[18:47] <jaatrox> hey folks anyone out there
[18:47] <Vianstak> saludos
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> Smiche  if you're copying from one folder to the other using  a GUI, you can use    watch ls -lh [folder]    to see how it's progressing
[18:47] <Vianstak> tube un problema con los archivos del grub y ya lo solucione pero ahora no me reconoce el otro OS que tenia instalado alguna sugerencia?
[18:48] <wilee-nilee> @es

[18:48] <jaatrox> from where should i start to learn everything about ubuntu
[18:48] <taime1> ezra-s: i cant find a binary for smbd, just the script in init.d
[18:48] <DJones> !manual | jaatrox The best way is just to use it, you can also look the bot's info,
[18:49] <samuel> guys,i still face difficulties with a LAMP installation.....anyone with an appealing help pls
[18:49] <MonkeyDust> jaatrox  start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows
[18:50] <ezra-s> taime1, make sure you have everything you need about samba installed or samba4, apt-get install samba or samba4 might do.. then configure your /etc/samba/smb.conf
[18:50] <k1l> !details | samuel
[18:51] <samuel> i evenly dont see it in software center....
[18:52] <Zwirc> Any sugestions for good dedicated servers? Thinking of : http://www.webtropia.com/de/root-server/professional-root-server-details.html?pid=ProfessionalL
[18:53] <k1l> samuel: just install the packages you need. apache, php,  mysql etc
[18:54] <MonkeyDust> jaatrox  keep it in the channel please
[18:54] <jaatrox> okay monkey dust
[18:56] <brad100> ok, so i have a ccomputer that keeps overheating on ubuntu server edition, the problem is the fan isnt spinning very fast. there are 3 wires connecting the fan to my motherboard. a red a black and a yellow. if i cut the yellow wire shouldnt that make my fan run at full speed ?
[18:57] <DeLorean731> brad100: yes, but I'm willing to bet that you have a bad bearing or something in the fan. Fan's are so cheap I'd just replace them
[18:57] <compdoc> brad100, if it has 3 wires, it isnt being controlled by the OS
[18:58] <brad100> well i trust you guys so im cutting the yellow wire
[18:58] <brad100> @compdoc what controlls the yellow wire
[18:58] <compdoc> thats a bad idea
[18:58] <brad100> why?
[18:58] <compdoc> the yellow wire is for rpm monitor
[18:58] <kave> salam :)
[18:58] <brad100> its a six year old laptop i got from walmart
[18:59] <compdoc> it lets you know how fast its going, it doesnt control the fan
[18:59] <brad100> i dont care too much about it
[18:59] <compdoc> if you have a 4-wire fan, it can be controlled
[18:59] <brad100> nope just 3 wires
[18:59] <kave> is here any body understand farsi ?
[18:59] <compdoc> then nothing will change
[18:59] <compdoc> except you wont know how fast it is
[18:59] <brad100> so if i cut the yellow wire nothing will happen?
[19:00] <taime1> ezra-s: everything is installed, but still getting unknown job
[19:00] <brad100> like the fan wont go 100%?
[19:00] <jaatrox> why choose a debian based os?
[19:00] <compdoc> like the fan will keep running the same speed. try it
[19:00] <brad100> ok
[19:00] <brad100> brb
[19:00] <iceroot> after "kompozer" was removed from the repos, can you recommend another tiny wysiwyg HTML editor? (13.04)
[19:01] <studmeister> Hi everyone. I am having an issue with a new installation on my laptop, which is running an Intel Chipset. I am missing a driver for a game that I play.
[19:01] <iceroot> !details | studmeister
[19:01] <studmeister> When I run the program from a terminal, I get a failed to load driver i965.
[19:02] <studmeister> How do I get this driver? I am running Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop.
[19:02] <ezra-s> jaatrox, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop http://www.debian.org/intro/why_debian
[19:03] <jaatrox> okay in programming respect how debian is diff from red hat
[19:03] <jaatrox> ?
[19:03] <iceroot> jaatrox: #debian #redhat
[19:03] <k1l> jaatrox: neither debian nor redhat is the topic in here. better ask that in #linux
[19:03] <ezra-s> jaatrox, in programming? I see no difference at all in programming with any linux distro, distros are about collections of packages and the ease to use the package manager
[19:04] <MonkeyDust> jaatrox  but that's !offtopic here
[19:04] <ezra-s> jaatrox, all main distros have updated compilers/interpreters for many programming languages
[19:04] <DJones> jaatrox: You'll probably get a better response to that type of question if you ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, this channel is only for support issues in how to use Ubuntu or solve issues in running Ubuntu
[19:07] <studmeister> I think I might have figured it out. lol I searched for the Driver in Software Center.
[19:07] <taime1> can anyone tell me how to manually invoke smbd? it will not start from upstart or /etc/init.d
[19:09] <dev_> logout
[19:09] <dev_> #leave
[19:10] <Smiche> if someone still remembers me i found the problem with unity stucking snd ubuntu too when running the game
[19:10] <Smiche> radeon gpu lockup cp stall for more than 10000msec whatever that error means
[19:12] <brad100> @compdoc i cut the yellow wire and now the fan isnt spinning at all xD
[19:12] <Smiche> found on some forums itmightbe a driver issue but ive got fglrx driver gallium 0.4  or smthing
[19:15] <iamhere> i've installed nvidia gpu driver on a hybrid sony vaio laptop and i also did some configuration in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but now my laptop boot but i cant go to login all i see is a blank screen.
[19:16] <iamhere> how can i edit the file?
[19:17] <taime1> iamhere: hybrid? is it an optimus chipset?
[19:17] <iamhere> taime1, i don't know
[19:18] <histo> iamhere: do you still have your installation media around?
[19:18] <taime1> iamhere: what do you mean by hybrid?
[19:18] <iamhere> taime1, it's an nvidia gt 640m LE and intel hd 4000
[19:18] <wildc4rd> possibly a stupid question, is there a free version of Windows I can use for a VM when wine won't work? or do I have to dig out an old copy of XP
[19:18] <taime1> iamhere: thats an optimus. you need to install a special driver from the bumblebee project
[19:19] <DJones> wildc4rd: You'll need to dig out your windows cd
[19:19] <iamhere> taime1,so what should i do know?
[19:19] <taime1> iamhere: which means you will need to either fix or reeinstall your sxisting OS
[19:19] <azazel91> has anybody here ever tried drupal 7
[19:20] <iamhere> taime1,ih nvm i think i got the solution
[19:20] <iamhere> taime1, thanks
[19:20] <taime1> iamhere: im telling you.. there is no driver (besides generic) that is going to work for that chipset besides bumblebee
[19:20] <taime1> but good luck
[19:21] <wilee-nilee> azazel91, This is a support channel not a polling channel, if you have a problem state it.
[19:25] <songkun> hi
[19:25] <songkun> anyone?
[19:27] <mfaroukg> any solution for the software update problems ? I am still on the ubuntu 13.04
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> ! details | mfaroukg
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> mfaroukg, Still on 13.04?
[19:28] <Slart> wildc4rd: nope.. no free versions of windows, it's not really in their business plan to give software away =)
[19:28] <taime1> "Unknown job" when starting smbd. Can someone help me troubleshoot this?
[19:28] <Slart> taime1: can you pastebin the output you get?
[19:28] <Slart> !pastebin | taime1
[19:30] <taime1> Slart: its just "unkown job: smbd"
[19:30] <taime1> Slart: if i use the init script, it tells me "initctl: unknown job: smbd
[19:31] <Slart> taime1: ok, and how do you try to start it?
[19:32] <taime1> slart with /etc/init.d/smbd start and with start smbd
[19:32] <johnjohn101> will a 16 GB usb card be enough to run ubuntu 13.04 with unity?
[19:32] <taime1> Slart: also by manually invoking the script. to no avail
[19:32] <Slart> johnjohn101: yes
[19:32] <taime1> johnjohn101: yes
[19:33] <johnjohn101> 8 GB ok?
[19:33] <taime1> johnjohn101: im on a 16gb ssd as we speak
[19:33] <taime1> johnjohn101: barely but yes
[19:33] <johnjohn101> thanks.
[19:33] <Slart> taime1: I'm not sure if it makes any difference but have you tried using the "service" command instead?
[19:33] <taime1> Slart: I HAVE. SAME THING
[19:33] <taime1> OH SORRY
[19:33] <taime1> sorry for the caps guys
[19:34] <taime1> really
[19:34] <johnjohn101> slart and taime1: tx. I am going to give to father in law to see if it runs on his computer. don't really want to spend much!! hee hee
[19:34] <OerHeks> taime1, with sudo ? >> sudo service smbd restart
[19:35] <taime1> OerHeks: oh yes, of course
[19:36] <Slart> taime1: hmm.. there are no errors in syslog or kern.log?
[19:36] <Tex_Nick> johnjohn101: you would better going with 16
[19:36] <taime1> Slart: i dont actually know.
[19:40] <mfaroukg> wilee-nilee, it is not updating and gives me errors when I "apt-get update" or using the GUI ... my desktop also not responding
[19:41] <Slart> taime1: and just to make sure.. you're spelling everything correctly? no smdb or snbd or such
[19:41] <pwd1234> quit
[19:41] <wilee-nilee> mfaroukg, I would start with running a update in the terminal and paste-binning all the text, the dektop is another matter we can go one problem at a time and details are important.
[19:41] <taime1> Slart: absolutely. ive even uninstalled and reinstalled it
[19:41] <wilee-nilee> desktop*
[19:42] <taime1> Slart: oddly, it was working several weeks ago.  I'm trying to get a grip on the basics of virtualization. Those Ubuntu cloud images, they're images of volumes on which a minimal Ubuntu hs been freshly installed, and not install media themselves?
[19:55] <ObrienDave> Baribal_::: if you mean a live image, they are the same as a full initial install
[19:56] <Baribal_> Thanks, ObrienDave
[19:56] <ObrienDave> no prob
[19:57] <ShaneO> hello all. Am I able to install windows side by side with linux if linux is the host os?
[19:58] <daftykins> ShaneO: Linux is installed first you mean? yeah
[19:58] <ShaneO> yes daftykins
[19:58] <ShaneO> could you point me to a link for doing so by any chance?
[19:58] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: yes, you will be using GRUB for dual boot
[19:58] <Slart> taime1: ok, I'm out of ideas.. I've been looking through the upstart documentation and checked where the files are on my system.. nothing really obvious leaps out at the moment.. but ask the channel again or ask in ##linux, there are plenty of people out there with better brains than I have =)
[19:59] <ShaneO> I'm just unsure where to start
[19:59] <aaas> ShaneO when considering win/lin solutions also consider virtual machines, linux in windows, cygwin, or second machine (remote connection or mouse sharing between machines)
[19:59] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: you should install windows first, because it might over write GRUB
[19:59] <aaas> as well as dual-boot ;)
[20:00] <daftykins> ShaneO: i don't think you really need a guide necessarily. just install Windows, it'll inevitably nuke GRUB so that Linux won't start anymore, then you'll need to reinstall GRUB
[20:00] <ShaneO> aaas yes I tried I wanted to be able to do a little gaming but vmware won't allow me to
[20:00] <Pei> what should be in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[20:00] <Pei> can someone patebin me theirs
[20:00] <ShaneO> so windows than linux
[20:01] <Pei> if someone would be so kind
[20:01] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: yes, you should install windows first
[20:01] <ShaneO> ok
[20:01] <ShaneO> thank yo
[20:01] <ShaneO> *you
[20:01] <wilee-nilee> Pei, Take a look here, you can make a list to compare. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[20:02] <ObrienDave> Pei:::  there is a website that will generate a custom list for you. i can't remember it just off hand
[20:02] <Pei> i don't need the gen i need it for someone elses machine i am trying to help them over teamtalk
[20:02] <Pei> their machine is not finding all the packages
[20:02] <wilee-nilee> Installing windows first is not the important part but having windows in the first partitions is.
[20:03] <Pei> we can't get openssh-server to install
[20:03] <wilee-nilee> Pei, You wanted a souces.list make one there.
[20:03] <roasted> Anybody on Ubuntu GNOME know how to adjust the timeout of the notification menu at the bottom of the screen? I'd like it to react faster.
[20:04] <Pei> ok
[20:05] <wilee-nilee> ShaneO, Installing windows first is not the important part but having windows in the first partitions is.
[20:06] <aaas> which happens automatically if you install windows first
[20:06] <aaas> assuming you want grub boot
[20:06] <wilee-nilee> aaas, Sure, however if you have OS's already installed their are other options, reloading the mbr s chlds play.
[20:07] <wilee-nilee> is* childs*
[20:07] <ObrienDave> not for someone that has NOT done it before
[20:07] <aaas> but the easiest way is for him to just put on windows hten linux...that's embroy play
[20:07] <aaas> ;)
[20:07] <aaas> embroy*
[20:07] <aaas> embryo*
[20:07] <aaas> haha
[20:07] <FloodBot1> aaas: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:08] <wilee-nilee> ObrienDave, Oh pleae windows or linux one or two commands, with 1000's of web pages how and the IRC.
[20:08] <wilee-nilee> please*
[20:08]  * wilee-nilee adds noobs to ignore
[20:16] <schultza> where is the smbpasswd file now!?
[20:16] <zerai> how do I fix this error: -bash: line 34: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (zh_CN.GBK): No such file or directory
[20:18] <histo> zerai: install the chinese locale you are trying to use
[20:18] <histo> !locale | zerai
[20:19] <zerai> histo, it is
[20:19] <histo> zerai: does the output of locale reflect that?
[20:20] <histo> zerai: and locale -a | grep zh_CN.GBK    ? does that have any output?
[20:21] <zerai> histo, nope
[20:22] <histo> zerai: than that locale isn't present.
[20:22] <histo> zerai: sudo locale-gen zh_CN.GBK
[20:23] <zerai> /opt/patcher$ locale-gen zh_CN.GBK
[20:23] <zerai> Generating locales...
[20:23] <zerai>   zh_CN.GBK... up-to-date
[20:23] <zerai> Generation complete.
[20:23] <FloodBot1> zerai: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:24] <zerai> histo, that still gives nothing with the previous command
[20:24] <studious> I wonder what verison of WireShark the NSA is using to sniff all US internet traffic
[20:27] <BluesKaj> studious,  probly wrote their own app
[20:27] <zerai> histo, and I just reinstalled zh_CN.GBK
[20:30] <studious> to constantly be recording every second, every ISP 24/7/365  they must have unimaginable Brontobyte in their databases by now
[20:31] <zerai> histo: any ideas?
[20:33] <daftykins> studious: i hope you were joking on Wireshark :>
[20:33] <BronyOkami> Well, hello..
 sadly, I'm not
[20:34] <studious> daftykins: think about it, if you run WireShark on your own network you see all traffic on the gateway
[20:34] <daftykins> studious: DPI is a bit more advanced than that
[20:34] <studious> this is the same strategy the NSA is using, at the data center ISP level for all US traffic
[20:34] <studious> quite scary
[20:34] <johnjohn101> what is DPI?
[20:34] <gordonjcp> Deep Packet Inspection
[20:34] <daftykins> anyway this is all off topic
[20:35] <johnjohn101> as always!!
[20:35] <daftykins> yeah the interesting bits :(

[20:37] <vlad_starkov> Question: I have RAID1 on a server with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Just checked `cat /proc/mdstat` and got `md1 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1](F) 975653696 blocks super 1.2 [2/1] [U_]`. It means I lost 1 disk in my RAID. How can I repair it?
[20:38] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: checked SMART data to see if the disk isn't dead?
[20:38] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: how can I do it properly?
[20:38] <daftykins> what, check SMART data?
[20:39] <vlad_starkov> yep
[20:39] <code-11> Hey, anyone have a problem where ubuntu starts to look like windows 98 and all the file menus dissappear? I think I did sudo apt-get -f install and this happened.
[20:40] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: well run disk utility and see if it can see each individual disk
[20:40] <follower> does anyone know if there is a fix coming for integrated touch pads?
[20:40] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: I'm on Ubuntu Server. So I have just console.
[20:41] <zerai> histo, any ideas how to fix itt? I installed local-gen zh_CN.BGK and it still says it doesn't exists, even though it tells me its's u to date
[20:41] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: i think there's a program smartctl. consider a livecd also
[20:42] <smO3000> .
[20:42] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: ok thanks!
[20:43] <Rarrikins> How can I select a package from the standard Ubuntu repositories rather than a PPA using apt-get?
[20:43] <code-11> I can't even bring up the terminal since the start menu has also dissappeared and ctrl-alt-t seems to do nothing
[20:44] <smO3000> I've been having an issue with sendmail: Up until about 2 days ago I was able to use it with no issues for contact forms and lead catures for joomla sites. Since then I had an issue with the server where I had shut it down and when I had brought it back online I'm no able longer to sendmail.
[20:45] <Sawny> Hi
[20:46] <follower> does anyone know if there is a fix coming for integrated touch pads?
[20:47] <daftykins> follower: #1 please do not repeat in the channel. #2 - all touchpads are integrated, so i have no idea what you mean? :)
[20:47] <uhelp> How do I add a clock to the taskbar which doesn't track my gps location?  I expect to right-click to add but it doesn't happen that way.

[20:48] <opentrans> Feel free, anyone, to straighten out my wording but I am trying to convert apache/php over from apache handling all php requests to CGI handling them. I have a script that has a php demo that uses dl. It runs, but only on CL in apache. In CGI I can use php with a browser with it.
[20:48] <follower> daftukins. I cant seem to rest my thumb in the bottom left corner of the new touchpad
[20:49] <opentrans> I'm having troble getting it switched. I have phpinfo installed on a GoDaddy site and it lists the Apache handler as CGI/FastCGI. Question -- should I see the same in my site when I have successfully switched to CGI?
[20:51] <uhelp> Is there any other clock than the default one?
[20:51] <uhelp> I much prefer a 24-hour clock with a date
[20:51] <uhelp> Something like MMDD HHmm

[20:55] <uhelp> piotrektt: can I set the width to 0px?
[20:56] <piotrektt> uhelp: you can autohide it

[20:57] <uhelp> piotrektt: I don't like anything that isn't optional!

[20:58] <alexandergranase> It was a dell with windows 8 and EUFI.
[20:58] <uhelp> piotrektt: It is terrible!  In the past I had a blank screen and used center mouse button as start window.  That was THE BEST.
[20:58] <uhelp> john: do you know what I install for blank screen with center mouse button as start menu?
[20:59] <z0_> چه باحاله اینجا:]]
[20:59] <piotrektt> uhelp: well, as ive said. u need to chose something different thatn unity if you don't like it. like someone said.
[20:59] <uhelp> piotrektt: which do I choose for NOTHING on the screen until I click center mouse button or use hotkey to start application?
[21:00] <bgardner> uhelp: What you describe sounds a lot like the xfce layout - you should see if xubuntu works for you.
[21:00] <piotrektt> uhelp: i don't know that. u need to search for yourself :)
[21:00] <z0_> هی کسی صدای منو میشنفه؟
[21:00] <z0_> نمیشه وسط اینا با هم فارسی حرف زد

[21:01] <alexandergranase> !ask
[21:01] <uhelp> bgardner: is xubuntu also like 9000x faster than unity with no transitional effects?
[21:01] <bigroomsmallhous> just stay with us its not that bad
[21:01] <bgardner> uhelp: You can switch to xubuntu without uninstalling ubuntu, since it's the DE rather than the full OS.
[21:02] <uhelp> bgardner: i will google it -- thank you
[21:02] <bgardner> uhelp: 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop', then log out and choose Xubuntu for your session.
[21:02] <piotrektt> uhelp: you can also consider sticking with unity. i did it for two months... and now seriously, can't imagine any kinde of gnomish DE
[21:02] <bgardner> uhelp: But yes, no transitional effects.    Thousands of seconds of transitional effects per year is not my idea of a good time when I could have been on holiday instead of watching animations of windows.
[21:04] <Ice9> Hello, I'm running ubuntu 12.04 with a line6 ux2 sound card, and after about 3 mins of audio, the audio will quit until I unplug it or restart the computer
[21:04] <bgardner> uhelp: I actually run Xubuntu for the same reason, but that's just preference - Unity has its merits.
[21:05] <uhelp> bgardner: what are the merits?  so far I am not aware of even a single one?
[21:06] <bigroomsmallhous> to be honest i dont know either...
[21:06] <piotrektt> uhelp: the mega coll search tool, instantly finds what you look for

[21:10] <uhelp> everyone: thank you very much for your time.  I use hotkeys to start all my (common) applications and almost never use search.  I just need a fast, clean (empty is best) workspace, a hotkey assigned to everything, no bs-effects, and I am FAST.
[21:10] <follower> does any one have an integrated touchpad? if so are you able to keep your index on the pad to click not tap and move the pointer with your middle finger withou the pointer stopping?

[21:11] <dmiller309> Is there a way to emit a PropertiesChanged signal using Q_PROPERTIES? I'm trying to implement this: http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-properties, as per http://www.mentby.com/Group/dbus/propertieschanged-signal-take-2.html? This is with the Qt5 DBus interface. I asked this under #ubuntu-app-devel, but no one is there.
[21:12] <piotrektt> uhelp: np. but i will still argue that unity is uber-fast. so good luck in your search for something you really like.
[21:13] <color> .
[21:13] <bigroomsmallhous> whats a q property?
[21:13] <dmiller309> Q_PROPERTY annotation: https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/properties.html
[21:13] <bigroomsmallhous> )~join #disambiguition
[21:14] <piotrektt> uhelp: oh one more thing. when you hit special key in unity - you can launch anny app from the bar
[21:14] <piotrektt> uhelp: just hitting a number
[21:15] <piotrektt> uhelp: so you have builtin hotkey you can use.
[21:15] <dmiller309> Declaring something Q_PROPERTY gives you READ/WRITE methods on it. If you're using QtDBus (which I am), then it makes it easier to export the properties over the DBus interface.
[21:16] <color980> ...?
[21:16] <zykotick9> uhelp: for a minimal environment, check out any of the *box window managers...
[21:16] <bigroomsmallhous> oh cool it sounds like you are doing some programming

[21:47] <Tex_Nick> bigroomsmallhous: that's an unlikley for your overhaet problem
[21:47] <Jeruvy> heffrik try converting it to decimal.
[21:47] <bigroomsmallhous> known issues in ubunutu then?
[21:47] <bigroomsmallhous> for intel
[21:47] <k1l> heffrik: is this a ubuntu problem?
[21:47] <sp3ck> can anyone give me a hand with a thunderbird issue plz?
[21:48] <heffrik> Jeruvy what do you mean and how do I do that?
[21:48] <heffrik> k1l indirectly, if you want refer me to a more suitable channel and I'll leave
[21:48] <k1l> heffrik: that looks like some windows registry value, if you ask me. so it would be ##windows then
[21:49] <Baribal_> Where did gksudo go on Raring??
[21:49] <Tex_Nick> bigroomsmallhous: if it's definately a heat problep ... i would chec h the cpu coolinf fan ... also the heatsink for dust
[21:49] <heffrik> k1l noob here, why the double hash?
[21:49] <bigroomsmallhous> the fan is working
[21:49] <dmiller309> I don't think gksudo went anywhere. I'm running the 13.10 dev, and it's still there.
[21:49] <Tex_Nick> new keyboard ... bad typos ^ :(
[21:49] <dmiller309> $ whereis gksu
[21:49] <dmiller309> gksu: /usr/bin/gksu /usr/bin/X11/gksu /usr/share/gksu /usr/share/man/man1/gksu.1.gz
[21:50] <bigroomsmallhous> why is my laptop running hot in ubunutu? sony vaio i3 intell amd x86
[21:50] <Baribal_> dmiller309, that helped, thanks.
[21:50] <Jeruvy> heffrik http://www.binaryhexconverter.com/hex-to-decimal-converter or you can type it  in a google search field also and it will convert for you.
[21:50] <Baribal_> bigroomsmallhous, checked for dust?
[21:51] <k1l> heffrik: because the channel is not owned by microsoft. (for more info on that channelnaming ask in #freenode )
[21:51] <bigroomsmallhous> vaio laptops sometimes shutdown automatically
[21:51] <Tex_Nick> bigroomsmallhous: those fans suck dust into the heatsink ... check for dust ... there are a lot of other issues that cause a pc to shut down
[21:51] <bigroomsmallhous> anyone know a way to fix?
[21:51] <heffrik> k1l plus why would it be windows? The file was system.reg but I'm in ubuntu
[21:51] <heffrik> Jeruvy thanks
[21:52] <Jeruvy> heffrik can you pastebin the file?  !pastebin
[21:52] <bigroomsmallhous> anyone point me to the process monitor for ubuntu pls
[21:52] <Jeruvy> !pastebin
[21:52] <OerHeks> bigroomsmallhous, vaio? maybe you need this PPA, with vaiofanctrl > https://launchpad.net/~vaiofand/+archive/ppa
[21:52] <bigroomsmallhous> for the poweruser
[21:52] <k1l> heffrik: can you explain what you are doing at all?
[21:52] <dmiller309> If you're using a Dell, you're going to have problems because those things are better ovens than computers. Mine overheated even while running memcheck.
[21:52] <bigroomsmallhous> thanks oer
[21:53] <dmiller309> Get a System76 and it doesn't overheat.
[21:53] <bigroomsmallhous> ty
[21:53] <bigroomsmallhous> all
[21:53] <dmiller309> Hope you get it sorted out though.
[21:53] <OerHeks> bigroomsmallhous, have fun
[21:53] <bigroomsmallhous> i think vaio has a compatibleproblem
[21:54] <k1l> heffrik: and i can only think of fiddeling with a isntalltime in a windows registry for warez. so that is neither a topic in here
[21:54] <bigroomsmallhous> yes ty oerhenks
[21:55] <BigFist> I have an two DVD Installation (ISOs) - wine game. And during install I need to switch disk. If I unmount DISK1 it doesn't really disappear from files tree. Only eject icon. Mounting second disk as DISC2 doesn't help. Installer searches for files only on first Disk. What to do ?
[21:56] <OerHeks> BigFist, see WineHQ database hoto install multiple disks for your game/app
[21:56] <OerHeks> !wine
[21:56] <foobArrr> I have a strange problem since upgrading to 13.04. I'm using xfce with compiz. when I have several maximized windows (or several windows with the right top corner in the same spot), somtimes when I click the X to close a window, not the window in the front but a window in the back gets closed. I tried with both gtk-window-decorator and emerald, same result. any ideas?
[22:01] <tonyt> i have a dual boot win 7 and xubuntu set up . xubuntu is installed on a external usb hard drive . can i install ubuntu to that external drive with out messing anything up ?
[22:02] <Baribal_> Does lightning interfere with WLAN? Otherwise my router is performing _badly_.
[22:02] <dmiller309> foobArrr, it sounds like you have a problem with metacity and the way it interacts with compiz.
[22:03] <dmiller309> Have you tried messing with the "window decorations" settings in the CompizConfig Settings Manager?
[22:04] <aarobc> Hey, so I'm on 13.04, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to send the alt key to a program. I have to be able to alt+click, and every time I try that, it moves the window instead.
[22:04] <k1lled> http://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - how i can fix that?
[22:05] <foobArrr> dmiller309: if it's metacity related, would that affect emerald? no I havn't changed any of those settings beside the "Command" field, as said I tried emerald and gtk-window-decorator there.
[22:05] <Guest49223> i need help with xubuntu  on youtube all video are fuzzy
[22:06] <ObrienDave> Guest49223*** ask on xubuntu channel please
[22:06] <Guest49223> ok thanks
[22:07] <dmiller309> foobArr Sorry, I'm not too familiar with emerald; that's all I know. If you kill compiz and just run the metacity window decorator, the problem will probably go away, but that's not what you want.
[22:08] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, How does Xubuntu run on a external, a bit slow? WE can't really commeant on additional OS's without details of what is there a screen shot of gparted looking at the external would be helpful.
[22:09] <tonyt> ya it runs a little slow . i was just wanting to install unbuntu . i was just wondering will it wreck the dual boot
[22:09] <tonyt> i guess ill try it and see what happenes
[22:10] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, asking if it will be wrecked without details is not very helpful, multibooting is effected by variables.
[22:11] <tonyt> it dual boots fine now . i dont know what else to provide . xubuntu is installed now on the external . i want to install unbuntu over it
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, A screen shot of the external is to much here?
[22:12] <bekks> tonyt: Just install the package "ubuntu-desktop"
[22:12] <k1lled> http://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - how i can fix that?
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> +1 on the ubuntu-desktop
[22:17] <Slart> k1lled: easiest way is to boot into windows on the machine and run checkdisk from there.. it's been a while since I looked at this but I don't think there is a fsck for ntfs available in linux
[22:17] <Slart> k1lled: that is assuming you are dual-booting on the machine in question
[22:18] <k1lled> i am with dual boot, yes, win 8 + ubuntu 13.04
[22:18] <Pyru> Hi there, I have an nvidia card, with optimus technology (newer laptop, IdeaPad Y580). It has a 3rd generation Intel GPU, and an nvidia geforce 660m GTX discrete GPU. I installed bumblebee and to my knowledge it's working. optirun glxspheres shows a good framerate, and is telling me it's using the gtx 660m. Now, I can only get the OS to boot useing "nomodeset" flag. And when in the Unity desktop,
[22:18] <Pyru> performance is very bad. By that, I mean visual effects are "slow" and "choppy". Any help is appreciated
[22:18] <k1lled> in windows i have no problem with this
[22:19] <Slart> k1lled: doesn't surprise me.. but run the disk check anyway.. it will probably find some minor thing to fix and then do a normal shutdown.. no hibernation or such
[22:19] <tskorte> Hello, I want to upgrade bluez to 5.6 but have no idea how. I'm thinking about compiling from source but not to sure how to - is there a ppa I can add?
[22:20] <Slart> tskorte: this channel mostly deals with regular vanilla ubuntu... google might be your best bet when it comes to finding specialized repositories
[22:20] <k1lled> what exacly i must check?? never before i have problem with hard
[22:21] <k1lled> 12.04, 12.10 - no problems
[22:21] <k1lled> 13.04 ... and
[22:21] <Slart> k1lled: just a regular disk check.. I've never run windows 8 but in windows 7 I would right click on a drive, select tools and run the disk scan thingy..
[22:22] <tskorte> Slart, yah, I've tried that with no particular luck. What if I rephrase my question: When trying to bring bluetooth dongle up (hciconfig hci0 up) I get a connection timed out error. Anyone experienced this?
[22:22] <tskorte> :)
[22:22] <k1lled> win8 is same. Okey i will
[22:22] <k1lled> after this i will come back here, now restart
[22:22] <Slart> k1lled: ok
[22:23] <Slart> tskorte: bluetooth is black magic if you ask me.. I'm happy it has worked for me in the past but I have no idea how to troubleshoot it. Unless you've got some reason to believe that upgrading will fix your problem I would look elsewhere first
[22:25] <Slart> tskorte: as always, googling for the error message is a good first start.. running commands in a terminal (possibly with -v) is also a good thing to try.. check the logs /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log might also give you good information
[22:25] <tskorte> Slart: I hear ya! I thought I read somewhere that it was a bug in bluez in < 5.00 but now I see that it's supposed to be < 4.96, ubuntu 13.04 runs 4.101 so I'm out of ideas.
[22:26] <tskorte> Slart, sure, IRC is always the last resort. No use in wasting peoples time when a google search might help.
[22:27] <Dr_willis> askubuntu.com is normally  my first stop these days.
[22:27] <tskorte> Dr_willis, yah. It's amazing!
[22:27] <Slart> tskorte: people on IRC has in some way already decided that they want their time wasted if you ask me =) I wouldn't really suggest googling normally but it seems a bit quiet in here at the moment
[22:28] <Dr_willis> now if people would search askubuntu.com and understand how its supposed to work instead of asking the same question over and over on the site.. ;P
[22:29] <tskorte> I found this workaround on launchpad, as it is a bug apparantly but I'm unsure how to download the ubuntus 'linux-source'.  It has a 3rd generation Intel GPU, and an nvidia geforce 660m GTX discrete GPU. I installed bumblebee and to my knowledge it's working. optirun glxspheres shows a good framerate, and is telling me it's using the gtx 660m. Now, I can only get the OS to boot useing "nomodeset" flag. And when in the Unity desktop,
[22:40] <Pyru> performance is very bad. By that, I mean visual effects are "slow" and "choppy". Any help is appreciated
[22:40] <Slart> k1lled: http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/6320-fast-startup-turn-off-windows-8-a.html
[22:42] <k1lled> bro, this is useless...
[22:42] <Slart> k1lled: you can also try using the option to "restart" instead of "shutdown"
[22:42] <holstein> !volunteers | k1lled
[22:42] <z_-> If I put ubuntu on my laptop, will the FN keys works? and can I expect better battery life (after tweaking)?
[22:42] <k1lled> i use few times "restart" today at my windows, and always my ubuntu cantttttttttttt mount my parts ..
[22:42] <Slart> z_-: perhaps and perhaps =/
[22:43] <studmeister> Hi everyone. I am trying to find an easy way to install the i965 driver for my laptop. I am running Ubuntu 12.04.
[22:43] <holstein> k1lled: what exatly used to work in 12.04 that is not working in 13.04? what is not mounting?
[22:43] <Slart> k1lled: then I don't really know what could cause this.. sorry
[22:43] <k1lled> holstein:  moment
[22:43] <z_-> Slart: If i try "use Ubuntu" from the disk, is this a good way to verify?
[22:43] <k1lled> http://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - look...
[22:44] <holstein> z_-: better battery life compared to what?
[22:44] <k1lled> Slart:  told me the problem come from win8, bad shutdown
[22:44] <z_-> holstein: Win7/8.
[22:44] <k1lled> but i know how to shut down
[22:44] <Slart> z_-: depending on the laptop model and such it might range from "everything works out of the box" to "nothing works and noone knows if it will get better"
[22:44] <Slart> z_-: yes, running the live ubuntu thing will at least tell you if some things will work
[22:45] <k1lled> z_-: FN buttons will work, but battery will work same time like windows
[22:45] <holstein> k1lled: did you confirm that the message is not true? have you tried mounting it read only?
[22:45] <z_-> Slart: Great thanks I'll test.
[22:45] <holstein> actually, battery life can be much worse in linux, due to driver support, typically
[22:45] <Slart> z_-: on my laptop I had about half the battery life compared to windows.. after lots of tweaking I've now got about 25% better battery time
[22:45] <k1lled> how i can mount it read only
[22:46] <z_-> Slart: Tweakings hard to do?
[22:46] <holstein> k1lled: i would read the message in the image you linked me, and try what is suggests.. ro
[22:46] <z_-> Slart: I got a Vizio laptop on Win8 and FN/battery life don't work well. hence Why I want to try ubuntu -_-
[22:46] <Slart> z_-: not really hard but lots of trial and error.. creating small scripts and such.. it takes some patience and a lot of rebooting =)
[22:47] <z_-> Slart: fuuuuuuu
[22:47] <Slart> well.. you're welcome I guess..
[22:47] <holstein> z_-: if flawless hardware support is the most important thing, you should use what the vendor suggests and intended you to use.. if you are willing to tinker, and compromise, you might enjoy linux/ubuntu
[22:48] <studmeister> Hi everyone. I am trying to find an easy way to install the i965 driver for my laptop. I am running Ubuntu 12.04
[22:49] <z_-> holstein: Thanks. I will try with the trial thingy see how it is first. It can't really be worse tbh ^^
[22:49] <holstein> studmeister: intel drivers are just included.. what the issue?
[22:49] <studmeister> When I go to run a program, it is telling me that it can not find the i965 driver.
[22:49] <holstein> it?
[22:50] <k1lled> holstein: ...... mmm
[22:50] <holstein> studmeister: what is "it"
[22:50] <holstein> studmeister: if you have that *exact* message, please share
[22:50] <studmeister> It's Singularity Viewer.
[22:51] <studmeister> Here is a link to what is said in the terminal window... http://paste.ubuntu.com/5781939/
[22:51] <Slart> ter: if you have that *exact* message, please share
[22:51] <Slart> 00:50 < studmeister> It's Singularity Viewer.
[22:51] <Kr> hi
[22:51] <Slart> oops.. sorry
[22:51] <Kr> hello.
[22:51] <holstein> studmeister: you dont think its a bug in the program? "The program 'singularity-do-not-run-directly' received an X Window System error.
[22:51] <studmeister> Its ok Slart. =)
[22:52] <studmeister> It does it on the Firestorm Viewer as well as the SecondLife Viewer as well, so I think it is missing the driver.
[22:53] <Kr> ulan
[22:53] <Kr> yarak kafalýlar
[22:54] <holstein> studmeister: what driver are you using? in a terminal lscpi -v ..you can share that via pastebin if you need
[22:56] <foobArrr> dmiller309: if it's metacity related, would that affect emerald? no I havn't changed any of those settings beside the "Command" field, as said I tried emerald and gtk-window-decorator there.
[22:56] <studmeister> The terminal is telling me it can't find the lscpi command.
[22:57] <holstein> studmeister: lspci .. sorry
[22:58] <studmeister> Ok, I figured that out... Here's the patebin. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5781949/
[22:59] <studmeister> it looks like it is using the 915 driver.
[23:01] <holstein> studmeister: looks like you are using the driver you should be using.. have you tried xswat ppa?
[23:02] <studmeister> No. I am brand new, and trying to learn it.
[23:02] <holstein> studmeister: where are you getting these applications that are failing?
[23:03] <studmeister> From their websites, they are not listed in the Application Center
[23:04] <holstein> studmeister: then, you need to ask them for help.. there is nothing "wrong" with ubuntu.. you are using the driver you are meant to use
[23:04] <studmeister> Ok, thank you.
[23:04] <holstein> could be they dont support your version of ubuntu...
[23:10] <clickclack> is anyone else having troubles running app store on 13.10?
[23:11] <dmiller309> Nope, works fine for me.
[23:11] <dmiller309> I just started the app store and it runs fine.
[23:11] <clickclack> could i post my error from running it in terminal? maybe you see something
[23:13] <clickclack> http://pastebay.net/1241735 there it is
[23:15] <OerHeks> !raring | clickclack  you better join #ubuntu+1 for raring support

[23:25] <SaxX> hi
[23:26] <SaxX> anybody available to tell me why i can't access to phpmyadmin
[23:26] <SaxX> ?
[23:26] <wilee-nilee> !details | SaxX
[23:27] <^Mike> What should I use to stream media (audio and video) to my andoid (on my home lan)
[23:27] <SaxX> sorry
[23:28] <SaxX> so i am under Ubuntu 12.04 TLS
[23:28] <SaxX> i have just installed lamp
[23:29] <SaxX> everything remain good except the fact i can't access to localhost/phpmyadmin
[23:30] <^Mike> Did you install phpmyadmin?
[23:30] <wilee-nilee> ^Mike, I think you can do that with airdroid from google play
[23:30] <^Mike> sweeeeeeet, I'll check it out
[23:31] <^Mike> my alternative is to try sshfs or something, but that's probably not the best idea :)
[23:31] <SaxX> yes i do ^Mike
[23:31] <^Mike> SaxX: and what happens when you navigate to the phpmyadmin URL?
[23:32] <SaxX> and when i type head /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
[23:32] <OerHeks> SaxX, how do you start myphpadmin ? <yourrIP>/phpmyadmin ?
[23:32] <SaxX> i can't see the alias that it's made
[23:32] <SaxX> localhost/phpmyadmin
[23:33] <Gabboz> ^Mike, take a peek at subsonic too
[23:33] <^Mike> wilee-nilee: airdroid looks like a remote control panel for your android device, rather than anything to do with streaming media. I guess you can transfer files :X
[23:34] <Gabboz> airdroid isn't what you want(i use that app).
[23:34] <^Mike> yeah, subsonic looks like it'll cover me for audio
[23:34] <wilee-nilee> ^Mike, Airdroid is a wireless communication, I thought I saw a streaming option.
[23:34] <Gabboz> ^Mike,  it does video too
[23:35] <^Mike> Gabboz: subsonic does?
[23:35] <Gabboz> subsonic transcodes(audio/video) on the fly.
[23:35] <Gabboz> i think mencode is the main app behind all that
[23:38] <^Mike> awesome
