[16:34] <cfhowlett> tigerden, format the partitions and they will be wiped.
[16:34] <chocolate> it looks like a "bad sector" for me
[16:34] <Guest252> hi i am here
[16:34] <alocer> chocolate: nope forgotten the command
[16:34] <tigerden> :( but what about without formatting?
[16:35] <chocolate> find command to run fsck on reboot
[16:35] <Guest252> so I apt-getted thermald and will edit the thermal-conf.xml file...must I do some sort of reloading to make the trip points active?
[16:35] <Guest252> ie a reboot?
[16:35] <cfhowlett> tigerden, if you *format* all programs, files and configs are wiped
[16:36] <squinty> alocer:  sudo touch /forcefsck
[16:36] <Guest252> thermald is running with --no-daemon flag...what does THAT mean?
[16:37] <tigerden> I know...but with installing on existing Ubuntu won't use any of the old programs right?
[16:37] <revo> hey all, so whats happening today...
[16:38] <ganiman> revo: Lovejoy comet!
[16:38] <revo> party time or home party...??

[16:41] <cfhowlett> tigerden, FORMAT!!!!
[16:41] <tigerden> okay okay
[16:43] <brainacid> can I list packages installed by date?
[16:44] <timedifference13> Alright guys, this is a pretty nooby question, but how do I only quit out of Xfce and drop into the command line?
[16:44] <brainacid> it seems a package is not allowing me to clear my cache when i exec sudo sync ; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop-caches
[16:44] <brainacid> timedifference13, you can Ctrl + Alt + F1 to go to a tty
[16:44] <BluesKaj> timedifference13,ctl+alt+F1-F6
[16:45] <timedifference13> Thanks!
[16:46] <BluesKaj> timedifference13, to get back, ctl+alt+F7
[16:46] <kc_> About how much memory do different window managers use?
[16:48] <alocer> squinty: why should i do that ?
[16:50] <prince_jack> hi
[16:50] <prince_jack> quit
[16:54] <BluesKaj> kc trey them and find out, that's a difficult question to answer
[17:02] <gog34> Hi, I'm getting  permission denied when I try to mkdir in the terminal. My guess is because I set it to 777 to use Plex. Does anyone know what I should chmod it to so I can mkdir?
[17:05] <gog34> Actually, problem solved. I just sudo mkdir - kind of like using a hammer to kill a fly, but whatever, it worked...

[17:40] <FreeMac> Hello everyone!
[17:40] <FreeMac> I have a question for installing Ubuntu without rEFIt. Is that possible?
[17:41] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, I take it youre installing on a Mac?
[17:41] <nicknamel> I've two Ubuntu systems on my computer. Do you know if grubx64.efi is ALWAYS looking in /boot/efi/EFI/-directory for grub.cfg-file?
[17:41] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Mhmm, that's right.
[17:41] <cfhowlett> !mac | FreeMac, short answer: it depends.  do your research
[17:42] <nedbat> does reading /dev/random take longer if the entropy is exhausted?
[17:43] <FreeMac> I have, and most "tutorial" sites/ articles show it being done via rEFIt. Can just holding the Option key during boot everytime be sufficient?
[17:44] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, it can be done WITHOUT refit as well.  also: more research ... refit is abandonwore.  current tool is reFIND
[17:45] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Ah, yes, I've seen that too. Could you perhaps point me in the right direction so I know what to look for?
[17:45] <FreeMac> I know that the mac doesn't use BIOS and hence the need for rEFIt/rEFInd.
[17:47] <nedbat> oh: /dev/random can block, /dev/urandom won't.
[17:47] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, I'm not a mac/buntu guy.  I most just boot it up on the sly at the Apple store.  sorry, but ... great firewall of china limits my search abilities.  see www.rodsbooks.com      for refit/refind goodness.
[17:48] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, I do know that newer macs don't need refind unless you're dual booting
[17:48] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Haha, great firewall of China. Good one.
[17:50] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Yeah, I'm looking to create another partition to dual boot, that's why. Otherwise, I could use some virtualization software, but that's not my optimal solution. A dual boot solution is preferred. The only thing standing in my way is rEFIt/rEFInd.
[17:50] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, refind will be your friend then.  hopefully you've got a newer mac to play on.
[17:51] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Yeah, my Mac is relatively new running on latest software. Just wanted to know if I could install Ubuntu without rEFInd. If that's even a possibility? Or is it completely impossible to your best knowledge?
[17:53] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, I think it's possible.  if 14.04.1 will boot the UEFI mac, I believe you can skip refind and still dualboot
[17:54] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Cool, do you know how I could do that? Or any resource which may be useful for me?
[17:55] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, easy.  download 14.04.1 64 bit .iso.  make a boot usb.  find a mac.  reboot with option key held.  select efi/uefi from the choices and boot!
[17:55] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Nice, that was what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch!
[17:56] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, hard to pull this off at the apple store, but I fired up the mac at the local walmart.  fun times.
[17:57] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Haha! What computer are you using?
[17:58] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, mac air, macbook and macpro all booted quite nicely
[17:59] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Nice, that's quite a lineup. You're using rEFInd I imagine?
[17:59] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, of course not!  as I said; you can boot a LIVE session without the need for refind/fit
[18:02] <Guest252> hi all ...i dont know what is up but im trying to stop my fan from running all the time, i updated my thermald xml file, restarted the daemon and the trigger points still seem to not be working
[18:03] <Guest252> if someone has a clue cud you pm me perhaps,ty
[18:06] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: I'm new to this, but how would I do that? And what do you mean by a "LIVE" session?
[18:06] <nmatrix9> Can somebody tell me how do I get smbclient to do a recursive chmod o+r on a directory?
[18:06] <ablegreen_w> Hi I would like to run a command with sudo with a keyboard shortcut. I understand sudo asks for the password through the terminal, so I'd need to use gksudo instead for the graphical password prompt. How can I do this without asking for a password at all?
[18:06] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, livesession means running from the usb --- NOT installed.  we do this for testing purposes.
[18:06] <nmatrix9> And no chmod o+r -R does not work
[18:08] <SchrodingersScat> ablegreen_w: my first instinct says "Please don't do that."
[18:08] <cfhowlett> ablegreen_w, this ^^^
[18:08] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Oh, I see. Yeah, I'm aware of that, though that does impact performance a bit doesn't it, and you have to keep the USB plugged in taking up USB slots, which in my case kinda sucks since I only have 2 USB ports on my Mac.
[18:08] <ablegreen_w> Well I'm using dmenu and whenever I bring it up, sudo doesn't work to launch programs
[18:09] <sudormrf> so I got my new SSD yesterday, popped it in and so far the system has been working.  but it took the thing a bit of time to fail last time.  I reinstalled the OS and had it running for a day or two before it failed.  still have the old SSD.  if I could get to the syslog on it I could possibly see what happened
[18:09] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, it's for testing.  and it your system will successfully boot 14.04.1 then you can *possibly* install it WITHOUT refind
[18:09] <sudormrf> either the other SSD failed, or the mobo is failing on the computer.  went with the SSD first since you can't buy a replacement NUC motherboard XD
[18:10] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: I see, thanks for the info. That was very helpful!
[18:10] <light94> ablegreen_w, if you are inclined to do it, you can try the following commands
[18:10] <light94> sudo EDITOR=gedit visudo
[18:10] <cfhowlett> FreeMac, have fun
[18:10] <FreeMac> cfhowlett: Can't wait to get started on Linux!
[18:10] <bubbasaures> sudormrf, and how is this related to ubuntu support?
[18:11] <light94> find the line , "root ALL=(ALL) ALL" ,
[18:11] <sudormrf> bubbasaures, this is a follow up to the issue that occurred yesterday (two days ago?) cfhowlett was helping me with it.  that is all.
[18:11] <light94> and use this instead username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
[18:11] <ablegreen_w> light94: Not sure if that works for gksudo as well but I
[18:11] <ablegreen_w> I'll try it
[18:11] <bubbasaures> sudormrf, Than pm them or at the least preface with their nick.
[18:12] <sudormrf> bubbasaures, I was told that we are to avoid PM'ming in this chat as that defeats the purpose
[18:12] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, right, right.  you should be able to recover the logs ... if you can access the device at all.  plug it in, mirror the contents and unplug.  then analyze
[18:13] <bubbasaures> sudormrf, On getting help yes we like to have it peer reviewed, that's really for your benefit.
[18:13] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, yeah, it was still accessible last time I tried to mount it.  will pop it in when I get some time and see whats up.
[18:13] <cfhowlett> sudormrf, enjoy the ssd
[18:14] <sudormrf> bubbasaures, yep.  that is why I didn't really want to preface it with a name because there were a few people involved.  at any rate, hope this thing works out.
[18:14] <sudormrf> cfhowlett, hope I don't have to buy a new NUC :D
[18:14] <bubbasaures> sudormrf, Yeah best of luck, an SSD was my best buy yet.
[18:25] <anon__> Anyone here?
[18:26] <anon__> Anyone here?
[18:26] <bubbasaures> anon__, Many address your support issue for help.
[18:26] <cfhowlett> !ask | anon__,
[18:27] <anon__> For some reson my computer only accepts ubuntu boot disks.
[18:28] <cfhowlett> anon__, lucky you ...
[18:30] <anon__> Nothing else works and its really anoying I tried a windows 7 disk, a tails disk, a windows 8 disk, and a disk delete disk and only ubuntu is recognized by my uefi.
[18:33] <bubbasaures> anon__, This is not chat if you need help with a specific OS use their channel.
[18:42] <webflashing> Hi everyone, its my first time here. I recently installed Ubuntu Gnome 14.10. After several restarts, im experiencing that whenever the pc boots, I see the desktop background and the mouse pointer but no enviroment at all. Im able to switch to another tty, but unable to open a terminal from the current one. The only solution is to press Win + L to lock, unclok and then the enviroment appears. Any idea what could be causing this or how can I start inv
[18:42] <webflashing> estigating what could be causing this problem? Thanks very much!
[18:44] <bubbasaures> webflashing, This the gnome shell desktop install?
[18:45] <webflashing> bubbasaures: yes indeed
[18:45] <bubbasaures> webflashing, Strange, my guess would be graphic driver and the latest kernel upgrade.
[18:46] <bubbasaures> webflashing, I would see if the guest account opens the same way.
[18:46] <webflashing> I downloaded the AMD Drivers by going to "Sfotware & Updates" > "Additional Drivers" -> And selecting the option "Using Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators from fglrx (propietary)"
[18:47] <webflashing> Altho, I know nothing about the kernel yet, this is my first time with linux
[18:47] <webflashing> Oh, and something I forgot to mention, I enabled the system to log in automatically, thats why there is no login screen.
[18:48] <bubbasaures> webflashing, Not an area I have really had to mess with all intel all the time here, but I see help in this area all the time here.
[18:50] <Caleb---> hi, any idea why my NFS shares seem to be automatically unmounted if they are unused?
[18:50] <webflashing> I see, well I'l investigate more. As I mentioned, it is currently a problem with a workaround easy enough
[18:51] <Cobalt> Hello. Have a question. Have installed 14.10. I connected my bluetooth keyboard and my bluetooth trackpad to my desktop. Ubuntu reports both as having depleted rechargeable laptop batteries. They have LR6 batteries which are new. How do I stop this erroneous behaviour?
[18:53] <kristenbb> hello, can someone please help me to troubleshoot why my ubuntu laptop is not able to join a particular wireless network, although he is able to join another wireless network, and although another computer is able to join the first network ?
[18:54] <ShalokShalom> ubuntu 1404 goes into sleep here and return always in busy box
[18:54] <ShalokShalom> cant restore data in life stick because of that

[19:00] <Cobalt> Hi there people. I'm here to help you answer my support question. Bugs 1153488 and 108674 deal with this issue, and it appears that I am doomed. Many thanks. Goodbye. Have a happy new year.
[19:04] <Lartza> I just updated some php packages which had changed configs and it opened some stupid dialogs asking what to do so I kept old ones, dpkg doesn't keep the dpkg-new anywhere?
[19:04] <Lartza> If I reinstall the packages does it ask about the config and what can I do then?
[19:06] <atxq> hey guys, system freezes after I login. I get a message about "flashplugin-installer".
[19:06] <atxq> how can I fix this problem?
[19:10] <gauss> Is it possible to mount an unknown partition in an ubuntu live session?
[19:10] <malimbar> atxq, what is the message?
[19:11] <malimbar> gauss, I haven't tried it, but it should be
[19:12] <gauss> When I try it I receive the message: "mount: block device /dev/sda7 is write-protected, mounting read only
[19:12] <gauss> "
[19:12] <gauss> and "mount: you must specify the filesystem type"
[19:17] <eRespond> I hacker ask me
[19:18] <malimbar> gauss, so it is mounting fine, it's just a permissions problem
[19:19] <malimbar> gauss, can you just change the permissions to allow it?
[19:19] <gauss> Perhaps. I'm a bit of a noob though. Let me look into it.
[19:20] <gauss> The partition itself is only 3.81GB.
[19:20] <malimbar> sounds like a good learning experience. I'll do a bit of internet browsing to see if I stumble on anything
[19:20] <gauss> I'm mostly curious as to what is on this partition.
[19:20] <gauss> I have Windows 7 and Linu Mint installed on the laptop.
[19:20] <atxq> the screen freezes after login so I cannot print screen. Is there a log file that has additional information about system errors?
[19:20] <malimbar> gauss, so you have 3 partitions, and 1 is windows, 1 is mint?
[19:21] <gauss> Actually, I have too many.
[19:21] <malimbar> how many?
[19:21] <OerHeks> !mint
[19:21] <nmatrix9> Anyone know how to change the permissions of a smb/nfs share via smbclient
[19:21] <nmatrix9> ?
[19:22] <gauss> 6
[19:22] <malimbar> OerHeks, luckily he's not asking about mint problems, just general tech stuff. that shouldn't matter too much
[19:22] <gauss> Yes. I'm currently running Ubuntu live.
[19:24] <malimbar> gauss, that's a lot of partitions. my god. 4 GB could be just about anything though
[19:24] <malimbar> could be a relic from when you did an install, could be a recovery partition, could be one of windows partitions (I think they do multiple for windows 7), could be who knows
[19:25] <malimbar> gauss, first thing I would do is check to see how it's formatted, that could give a clue
[19:25] <gauss> There's already a separate recovery partition.
[19:25] <ShalokShalom> ubuntu 1404 goes into sleep here and return always in busy box
[19:26] <gauss> which has filesystem ntfs
[19:27] <Dragonkeeper> hey im on 64 bit ubuntu 14 and need 32bit java, which package name should i install
[19:27] <malimbar> install 32 bit java :)
[19:27] <Dragonkeeper> which is called ?
[19:27] <malimbar> Dragonkeeper, you can get a whole bunch of 32 bit libraries by installing ia32-libs , but I think that's depreciated in favor of just installing individual 32 bit libraries
[19:28] <Dragonkeeper> ok o.O
[19:28] <Dragonkeeper> malimbar: so whats the 32bit openjdk called lol
[19:28] <malimbar> let me see what' sin the software center
[19:28] <Dragonkeeper> :)
[19:29] <atxq> screen unresponsive after I login to Ubuntu 14.10. is there a command I can run to find out what is causing the problem?
[19:30] <atxq> I get a message about flashplugin-installer could not retrieve additional files from the web.
[19:31] <malimbar> atxq, the entire screen in unresponsive? or just certain webpages?
[19:31] <atxq> uninstalled flashplugin-installer. problem still persists.
[19:31] <atxq> entire screen. cannot click anything.
[19:31] <malimbar> atxq, that's really weird
[19:31] <bubbasaures> atxq, so far none of that makes sense.
[19:32] <atxq> I know
[19:32] <bubbasaures> than stop
[19:32] <atxq> small light blue square top left appears
[19:32] <bubbasaures> we can help if you use some basic discovery skills
[19:32] <atxq> about 500x200 px
[19:33] <malimbar> ok, I gotta focus on the java thing first. Dragonkeeper, I assume you just need the runtime environment? you're not programming or anything...?
[19:33] <atxq> how can I fix this issue? reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and unity, but did not help fix the issue
[19:34] <Dragonkeeper> nope just need the 32bit runtime , not really used to using ubuntu package system
[19:34] <malimbar> I think it's openjdk-8-jre:i386 you're looking for then
[19:34] <Dragonkeeper> ok let me try that
[19:34] <malimbar> generally just add :i386 to the end of whatever the library is to get the 32 bit version
[19:35] <megagiganoob> Hello folks, hoping someone might be able to help. I'm trying to make a distro of xubuntu based on my current setup. I volunteer at a free site to help people learn web development and the idea is to be able to give them an image they can load into a vm and not have to worry about configuration
[19:35] <malimbar> atxq, I'm still wondering wtf flash plugin would have to do with your desktop screen
[19:35] <bubbasaures> !java | Dragonkeeper
[19:35] <megagiganoob> I'm going through the livecd customization but I'm at a point I'm not sure what to do. I've installed ruby and git. I'd like to install linuxbrew for node and yeoman so the users don't have to mess with sudo, but I'm unsure where to edit the path
[19:35] <bubbasaures> malimbar, no swearing acronyms or swearing here theanks.
[19:35] <atxq> that is the last message that I see after unity loads
[19:35] <megagiganoob> sorry for the wall of text
[19:35] <malimbar> bubbasaures, sorry
[19:36] <malimbar> yeah, no idea on that atxq. I'd have to poke around blindly for a while before I got anywhere
[19:36] <Dragonkeeper> malimbar: nope that package isnt found
[19:36] <atxq> any command I can run to help fihure out the issue?
[19:37] <malimbar> atxq, more than I know of. I'd just go to the system monitor first to see what's running, and online searchinga lot
[19:37] <malimbar> duckduckgo is great. Or google of course
[19:38] <atxq> cannot load anything. screen unresponsive.
[19:38] <atxq> google offered no help on this issue
[19:38] <malimbar> Dragonkeeper, try openjdk-7-jre:i386 then
[19:38] <malimbar> or whatever loads when you type sudo apt-get install op <tab>
[19:38] <malimbar> actually press tab, not type it :)
[19:39] <atxq> after upgrading to 14.10, screen became unresponsive
[19:39] <Dragonkeeper> E: Unable to locate package openjdk-7-jre
[19:39] <malimbar> jre is what you're looking for though
[19:39] <diddledan> what better than a new year cenebration lounging on a sofa watching sandra's bullocks in "the net"
[19:40] <malimbar> Dragonkeeper, openjdk-7-jre:i386 ?
[19:40] <daftykins> diddledan: wrong channel! :P
[19:40] <Dragonkeeper> mine says not found malimbar
[19:40] <diddledan> oops
[19:40] <diddledan> thanks daftykins
[19:41] <malimbar> Dragonkeeper, what are you typing in the terminal exactly?
[19:41] <Dragonkeeper>  sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre:i386
[19:41] <malimbar> strange, it worked for me
[19:42] <malimbar> what options op up if you tab?
[19:42] <Dragonkeeper> if i tab ?
[19:42] <malimbar> ie "sudo apt-get install openjdk" then the tab key?
[19:43] <Dragonkeeper> malimbar: all the openjdk stuff seems to be there
[19:44] <malimbar> and there is openjdk-7-jre in that list?
[19:44] <Dragonkeeper> yes
[19:44] <Dragonkeeper> 64bit version
[19:45] <atxq> what would happen removing nvidia-common*
[19:45] <malimbar> weird. You didn't turn off any ubuntu repositories ora nything, did you?
[19:46] <ShalokShalom> ubuntu 1404 goes into sleep here and return always in busy box
[19:46] <ShalokShalom> cant restore data in life stick because of that
[19:47] <malimbar> atxq, that sounds like graphics driver stuff, I wouldn't touch  that
[19:47] <malimbar> Dragonkeeper, why do you want the 32 bit version anyways?
[19:48] <Dragonkeeper> malimbar: nvm i fixed it .  and its a requirement for something im using on server.  im just too used to portage xD
[19:48] <malimbar> lol, sweet. How did you fix it?
[19:49] <Dragonkeeper> dpkg --add-architecture
[19:49] <malimbar> ah, awesome
[19:52] <bubbasaures> ShalokShalom, Not sure anyone knows what a "life stick" is here, can you expand that?
[19:53] <DJones> bubbasaures: I suspect it means a "live usb "
[19:53] <bubbasaures> probably just confirming
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> ubuntu 1404 goes into sleep here and return always in busy box
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> cant restore data in life stick because of that
[19:54] <pmeeke> I am having problems with fusermount if anyone can help.. when i mount the mounted folder looks like d????????? ? ?          ?              ?            ? Test
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> sleep mode returns not correct
[19:54] <bubbasaures> ShalokShalom, Is this a usb loaded with the iso? If so do you have a persistence set?
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> and since that is it impossible to access the device in live mode
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> no
[19:54] <ShalokShalom> this is installation
[19:55] <ShalokShalom> and i try to recover the files
[19:55] <ShalokShalom> which is not possible in live mode, since the broken sleep mode avoid that
[19:55] <pmeeke> sorry that looks very confusing the directory permissions just have ??? instead of rwx and user:group is just ???:???
[19:56] <ShalokShalom> when i start into the installation, is the busy box all what i get
[19:56] <ShalokShalom> even in recovery mode
[19:57] <otaku0424>  /join #channel #fedora
[19:57] <bubbasaures> ShalokShalom, In order to help we have to communicate, this is helped by exact answers and prefaced with the nick to whom it's for. Is english your first language?
[19:57] <Chuck_Norris> pmeeke: you can't mount .isos in write mode, it is like a standar, what you can do is, once mounted you can copy the content to another folder and then change permisions
[19:58] <ShalokShalom> german is my native language
[19:58] <otaku0424> Anyone have experience with freeipa/sssd and getting ad trust setup?
[19:58] <bubbasaures> ShalokShalom, There is a german ubuntu channel if needed.
[19:58] <bubbasaures> !gr
[19:58] <pmeeke> Chuck_Norris: it is dropbox i am trying to mount vi a python script "dropfuse", but have tried a few today with the same issues
[19:58] <bubbasaures> errr thats greek sorry
[19:59] <Pici> !de
[19:59] <otaku0424> I'm right at the cusp, kerberos authenticating but can't ssh into the server with a windows login.
[19:59] <ShalokShalom> its simple:
[19:59] <ShalokShalom> i go in sleep mode
[19:59] <Chuck_Norris> pmeeke: oh! sry idk then
[19:59] <ShalokShalom> when i restart the machine, i get the busy box
[19:59] <ShalokShalom> even in recovery mode
[20:00] <bubbasaures> ShalokShalom, #ubuntu-de  you might try here,
[20:02] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: when you restart out of busybox it works?
[20:03] <ShalokShalom> how to ?
[20:03] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^:
[20:03] <EriC^^> when you restart normally
[20:04] <ShalokShalom> from busy box ?
[20:04] <Gr3yClo4k> test 123
[20:04] <ShalokShalom> with which command ?
[20:04] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: reboot
[20:04] <ShalokShalom> ok
[20:04] <ShalokShalom> i will try, that thanks
[20:04] <ShalokShalom> why does kubuntu that not automaticly ?
[20:05] <ShalokShalom> unable to boot the sleep mode > boot the casual settings ?
[20:05] <ShalokShalom> thanks
[20:05] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: ok, you mean you are hibernating?
[20:05] <ShalokShalom> yes
[20:05] <EriC^^> when it tries to resume you get busybox
[20:05] <EriC^^> ok
[20:05] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: does it mention why?
[20:05] <ShalokShalom> when hibernating is hdd, then i mean hibbernating
[20:06] <ShalokShalom> sorry, i always confuse these 2
[20:06] <ShalokShalom> especially in english
[20:06] <ShalokShalom> mentoin why ? i dont think so
[20:06] <ShalokShalom> if yes and restart dont helps, i come back and report you
[20:06] <ShalokShalom> thanks for the great support :)
[20:07] <brianf> Hi All. Im currently using XChat as an IRC client, but is their any other client that is more prefered for an IRC newcomer or is this the best one to use?
[20:07] <daftykins> hexchat
[20:07] <EriC^^> brianf: it's pretty much the prettiest most user friendly client
[20:07] <theadmin> brianf: If you're comfortable with it, just use it -- it supports pretty much all IRC features from what I know.
[20:07] <daftykins> there is no such thing as "best"
[20:08] <brianf> yea i actually like it. its simple and non cluttered.
[20:09] <Chuck_Norris> brianf: also try "Polari" its is a client writed for gnome-shell
[20:09] <brianf> ok! thanks chuck
[20:09] <Chuck_Norris> brianf: np
[20:13] <michael7119> quit
[20:14] <daftykins> michael7119: but you only just got here!
[20:15] <q__> test check
[20:17] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^: i get into initramfs, restart takes no effect there
[20:17] <ShalokShalom> no reason why, just busy box
[20:18] <kristenbb> hello, can someone please help me to troubleshoot why my ubuntu laptop is not able to join a particular wireless network, although he is able to join another wireless network, and although another computer is able to join the first network ?
[20:18] <ShalokShalom> i just want to recover the files
[20:18] <ShalokShalom> and install fresh then
[20:18] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: is it a wuby install?
[20:18] <EriC^^> *wubi
[20:19] <ShalokShalom> no
[20:21] <u0m3> hi. can anyone tell me if it is possible install nvidia drivers without bumblebee on a optimus laptop ?
[20:21] <ablest1980> hi
[20:22] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: does it say any error?
[20:22] <ShalokShalom> no
[20:22] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: can you take a picture of the screen when it drops to busybox?
[20:23] <ShalokShalom> it displays no info
[20:23] <ShalokShalom> really :)
[20:23] <EriC^^> ok,
[20:23] <EriC^^> try to fsck the disk maybe
[20:24] <EriC^^> sudo touch /forcefsck , then restart
[20:25] <ShalokShalom> sudo touch /forcefsck
[20:25] <ShalokShalom> restart
[20:25] <ShalokShalom> yes ?
[20:25] <S_SubZero> hi, I'm writing a script to automatically create a user in Ubuntu 14.04.  I want the user created as if it were done through the GUI.  I can't seem to get it working.
[20:26] <worenga> S_SubZero: adduser vs useradd
[20:26] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: restart using the button, or sudo reboot
[20:26] <andlabs|2> is there a way I can get the adddress of an inode's information with debugfs?
[20:26] <ShalokShalom> ok
[20:26] <andlabs|2> I want to see if the data for this inode really is lost in a bad sector or not
[20:26] <Guest71531> hi
[20:26] <ShalokShalom> thanks
[20:26] <S_SubZero> worenga: whichever one gets the job done really
[20:26] <Guest71531> i love sex
[20:26] <Caleb---> what's a good place for a folder with my custom scripts? (~/scripts? or ~/bin?)
[20:27] <Crell> Guest71531: Go find it somewhere else.
[20:27] <Guest71531> i love cock
[20:27] <andlabs|2> Caleb---: canonically ~/bin but you can choose whatever folder you want so long as you add it to $PATH
[20:27] <elmokhtar> Hi all :p
[20:28] <S_SubZero> worenga: I can get the user created, but for whatever reason useradd never creates the home directory.  When I try to login as the user, it just throws me back out
[20:28] <EriC^^> S_SubZero: how are you creating it
[20:28] <blackangelpr> Guest71531<EMAIL_ADDRESS>behave!
[20:28] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: i'd suggest adduser instead of useradd YMMV
[20:29] <S_SubZero> EriC^^: useradd $USERNAME -c "$FULLNAME" -p $(openssl passwd -1 $PASS) -g $USERNAME -G (same groups the initial user gets)
[20:29] <EriC^^> S_SubZero: you need -m for it to create a home dir
[20:30] <andlabs|2> ah imap
[20:30] <andlabs|2> now I just need to convert the block to a file address...
[20:30] <S_SubZero> ah, I'll tryit
[20:31] <scientes> how do i install keyboard layouts?
[20:31] <scientes> I need IPA
[20:31] <blackangelpr> scientes, system settings ->  text entry
[20:31] <blackangelpr> left colum
[20:34] <S_SubZero> ah much better, thx
[20:35] <wad> Needing some hints on getting my ubuntu box configured as a gateway, so I'm connected to irc on my phone. We'll see how this works.
[20:36] <xcyclist> I guess I can't just install capistrano and look at the man page.  Oh well.
[20:36] <andlabs|2> ok reasking now that I have a concrete question
[20:37] <andlabs|2> I have an ext4 partition dump (my previous install's /home partition) made with ddrescue and I want to see if the inode table entry with my /home dir has been damaged. I have the block number - 145752096 - but I want a file address. Is there anything I can do? Thanks.
[20:37] <wad> I've edited /etc/network/interfaces for eth0 (wan, dhcp) and eth1 (lan, static ip). Disabled network manager. Enabled ipv4 forwarding.
[20:38] <andlabs|2> er
[20:38] <andlabs|2> I want an address in my disk dump
[20:38] <andlabs|2> is there a better channel for this (onet hat does not require registration to talk?)
[20:40] <wad> But on boot, ubuntu fails to get any ip address for eth0. Claims link is not ready. But if I unconfig all the stuff, network manager connects just fine. Ideas, anyone?
[20:40] <netcrash> Hello, Just today I was on a system that in df -h did not show any partitions but doing cat /proc/mounts displayed all of them mounted, what could be the problem?
[20:41] <EriC^^> netcrash: have you used sshfs lately
[20:41] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^: /bin/sh: not found
[20:41] <blackangelpr> wad,  did you get sure that static ip you assig was available on your network ? -> inside your router not taken?
[20:41] <netcrash> EriC^^: no, why could that be related?
[20:42] <EriC^^> netcrash: if the server is down df will get funky
[20:42] <netcrash> EriC^^: that desktop isn't with any mount to a server
[20:42] <blackangelpr> wad, http://www.sudo-juice.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-in-ubuntu-the-proper-way/
[20:42] <ikonia> use network manager on the desktop
[20:42] <ikonia> that is the proper way
[20:42] <wad> Yes, eth0 is dhcp from comcast, eth1 is <IP_ADDRESS>, it is unique.
[20:43] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: ?
[20:43] <OerHeks> wad, make sure the 1st Tab in networkmanager 'all users may onnect to this network' enabled
[20:43] <Guest71531> shit
[20:43] <ShalokShalom> that is the result
[20:43] <ikonia> Guest71531: no need to swear
[20:43]  * wad clicks and goes to read, thanks
[20:43] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: after rebooting?
[20:43] <Guest71531> shut up bitch
[20:44] <netcrash> EriC^^: besides that the system root (/) was full and could not see how to empty it.
[20:44] <EriC^^> netcrash: oh
[20:44] <netcrash> "empty it"
[20:45] <EriC^^> netcrash: do you have a seperate /boot ?
[20:45] <wad> Oerheks, but I'm pretty sure I want network manager disabled entirely, right? That's how I had it working on the machine I am replacing.
[20:45] <netcrash> EriC^^: what made me loose more time was the fact that the system df -h did not show anything.
[20:46] <blackangelpr> wad,  normally your  ip with .1 at the end are saved for your router .... computer uses something else .2 .3 .4 .100 .150 etc XD depending on your ip range
[20:47] <wad> Black, yep, this IS the router. :-)
[20:47] <cryptodan> Ive seen routers with .254 as the ending octet
[20:47] <blackangelpr> i said normally cryptodan XD
[20:48] <wad> This ubuntu box is going to be a router, connecting my comcast wan to my home lan.
[20:48] <netcrash> EriC^^: no
[20:48] <andlabs|2> 0x8B00020000  0x00001000  -
[20:48] <andlabs|2> well that answers that
[20:48] <andlabs|2> thanks
[20:48] <andlabs|2> (it's just block number * block size)
[20:48] <wad> I'm replacing my old ubuntu router with this new one.
[20:48] <andlabs|2> now I need to figure out some magic to repair bad sectors...
[20:49] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^: /bin/sh: not found
[20:49] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: type ls -l /bin/sh
[20:53] <ShalokShalom> thanks
[20:54] <jhutchins> wad: Using a full-fledged PC is a bit of overkill for a router.  dd-wrt on a linksys should be plenty.
[20:55] <jhutchins> blackangelpr: By convention the router is usually the first or sometimes the last IP in a subnet, but that's only convention, it can be anywhere in the range.
[20:57] <wad> Jhutchins, yeah, it does a bunch of other stuff also. Print server, website host, file server,, etc.
[20:57] <cryptodan> wad, so a one stop shop for hackers?
[21:00] <wad> Oh it gets lots of breakin attempts.  I should probably use a different port. Not that anyone couldn't find it anyway.
[21:04] <cryptodan> wad, you should not be using a router to host anything but to route traffic
[21:04] <Qbuo> I have a new asus motherboard, no reason why it wouldnt be
[21:04] <ikonia> Qbuo: just because it's new has no relevence to if it's support
[21:04] <ikonia> supported
[21:04] <jhutchins> wad: True, but the additional effort takes you out of a lot of scripts and bulk attempts, and it also shows you're probably sharp enough that you're not worth a casual hack.
[21:04] <wad> Agreed.
[21:05] <jhutchins> Qbuo: If you were to read the docs you would find out how to determine your chipset and what it requires for support.
[21:05] <wad> As for the router doing other stuff, why not? The machine is plenty powerful to do it all.
[21:05] <cryptodan> wad, defense in depth
[21:05] <Qbuo> Where can i find supported motherboards/wwifi card things
[21:05] <jhutchins> Qbuo: At the link ubottu posted.
[21:07] <Qbuo> I have a Killer E2200 network card
[21:08] <Qbuo> On an msi mobo
[21:08] <cryptodan> Qbuo: what chipset?
[21:08] <ShalokShalom> ls is ls
[21:08] <ShalokShalom> -l: not found
[21:08] <Qbuo> What chipset is the motherboard or what?
[21:09] <cryptodan> Qbuo: your network card
[21:09] <ShalokShalom> .. /bin/sh is /bin/sh
[21:10] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^:
[21:11] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: You are not making sense.
[21:11] <Qbuo> Killer ethernet is all it says
[21:11] <ShalokShalom> jhutchins: Eric know my issue
[21:11] <Qbuo> Wel fuck
[21:11] <Qbuo> How do i tell if i even have a wireless card
[21:12] <jhutchins> Qbuo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[21:12] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: i think you typed "type ls -l /bin/sh"
[21:12] <jhutchins> Qbuo: We could just tell you, but why not have a look and get some backgoround, as well as the answers to your next three questions?
[21:12] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: dont leave, no need to get into the busybox
[21:12] <ShalokShalom> this is the result
[21:13] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: are you in ubuntu right now?
[21:13] <ShalokShalom> how to avoid ?
[21:13] <ShalokShalom> in live ?
[21:13] <ShalokShalom> no ROSA
[21:13] <ShalokShalom> which tool ?
[21:13] <ShalokShalom> or download buntu ?
[21:13] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: huh?
[21:13] <jhutchins> Qbuo: ifconfig /a should show the card if the driver's loaded, lspci -nn will give you the chipset name and pciid.
[21:13] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: you said ubuntu boots but when you hibernate it goes to busybox right?
[21:14] <ShalokShalom> yes, the installation
[21:14] <jhutchins> !de
[21:14] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: ok, are you in it right now?
[21:14] <ShalokShalom> i guess you mean now in live mode (there i am on ROSA)
[21:14] <ShalokShalom> how can i chat with you in  busy box xD `?
[21:14] <Qbuo> Well the drivers not loaded as my computer has no internet
[21:15] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: i mean the installation, you said it boots and only goes to busybox if you resume from hibernation
[21:15] <xcyclist> http://pastie.org/9807056
[21:15] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Not necessarily.  Takes more than just drivers.
[21:15] <ShalokShalom> yes
[21:15] <ShalokShalom> this is kubuntu 1404
[21:15] <xcyclist> I just came back from a disconnect.  Sorry if I missed something.
[21:15] <xcyclist> Oddly it doesn't do that if I run /etc/init.d/networking restart
[21:16] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: Easy answer is don't hibernate, boot is pretty quick.
[21:16] <ShalokShalom> you miss nothing :)
[21:16] <ShalokShalom> jhutchins: i know, this is my meaning as well
[21:16] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: swap is greater than ram?
[21:16] <ShalokShalom> friends computer and default behaviour in kde sc 4, when you close the laptop lid
[21:16] <Qbuo> "lscpi -nn" did nothing
[21:16] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: Ah.  That is often configurable.
[21:16]  * Chuck_Norris would like to share a link:  https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video
[21:17] <ShalokShalom> will change this in future every time to shut down the screen
[21:17] <ShalokShalom> yes, ofc it is
[21:17] <cryptodan> Qbuo: just do lspci or lsusb and dpaste.com it
[21:17] <jhutchins> Qbuo: ls (list) pci (pci bus) lspci -nn
[21:17] <ShalokShalom> i just forget it, when i set up the device for him
[21:17] <Qbuo> Dont underatand why the thing wont just search for wifi conections then let me click connect
[21:17] <ShalokShalom> sleep and hibernation is senseless at all for me
[21:17] <ShalokShalom> makes just much effort to support it
[21:18] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Because you didn't pay for Bill Gates' minions to do the work for you.
[21:18] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^: no need to get in busy box, you mean ?
[21:18] <jhutchins> Qbuo: For a lot of chipsets that works, but some take extra effort because the manufactureres are creative.
[21:18] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: not sure about this stuff
[21:19] <EriC^^> ShalokShalom: if it can't resume hibernation, can you set it straight from a live usb or something?
[21:19] <Qbuo> All mine says is qualcomm aetheros killer e2200 ethernet controler
[21:19] <Qbuo> What am i looking for
[21:20] <cryptodan> Qbuo: more than likely there are no drivers for it as those killer nics are designed for windows only
[21:20] <Qbuo> Well fuck
[21:20] <Qbuo> What now
[21:20] <Qbuo> Go buy windows key offa reddit?
[21:20] <jhutchins> Qbuo: If you used -nn you would get a pciid, and I have a database I can search for details on support.
[21:20] <cryptodan> Qbuo: I would suggest getting an Intel 6300 or 7200 series nic, and watch the language here
[21:21] <Qbuo> Im not about yo buy a new motherboard for a free operating system lol
[21:21] <clockwork_> Helo
[21:21] <clockwork_> Hello*
[21:21] <cryptodan> its network card
[21:21] <cryptodan> it costs roughly 40 bucks
[21:21] <jhutchins> Qbuo: You could also get a USB NIC.
[21:21] <Qbuo> well windows keys are 10 bucks
[21:21] <clockwork_> Could someone tell me how I can stream audio from Pulse to my android device via RTP?
[21:22] <cryptodan> Qbuo: probably pirated
[21:22] <S_SubZero> does Ubuntu have issues with having executable scripts on USB sticks?  For some reason it's totally ignoring any chmod +x on a bash script on my stick, but if I move the script to the local drive, it allows chmod.
[21:22] <Qbuo> Pirated windows is probably a lot easier to set up than this haha
[21:22] <daftykins> Qbuo: inappropriate.
[21:22] <EriC^^> S_SubZero: depends on the mount options
[21:22] <clockwork_> Pirated Windows? Windows 10 technical preview is as easy as it gets
[21:23] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Should be usable with the atheros drivers.
[21:23] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: is your stick fat/ntfs?  could those filesystems don't support POSIX permissions
[21:23] <Qbuo> What?
[21:23] <cryptodan> Qbuo: this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833106251
[21:23] <S_SubZero> zykotick9: yeah I suspected that, it's fat32
[21:23] <Qbuo> i am really confused
[21:23] <ShalokShalom> EriC^^: set it straight from live mode ? how ?
[21:23] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: Probably mounted noexec.
[21:23] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: use a real filesystem ;)  best of luck.
[21:23] <ShalokShalom> i just want recover the personal data, OS is unimportant
[21:24] <Qbuo> That's umm... 50 bucks
[21:24] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: using a live session should allow you to get to your drives
[21:24] <cryptodan> Qbuo: yeah it also works on multiple operating systems out of the box
[21:24] <jhutchins> Qbuo: What kernel do you have (uname -r)
[21:24] <Qbuo> whats a kernel
[21:24] <Techspectre> Anyone ever try to do the whole crouton thing with a chromebook?
[21:25] <jhutchins> Qbuo: e2200 works w/3.16.
[21:25] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Just do uname -r on a command line.
[21:25] <Qbuo> What is 3.16, i cant connect to the internet right now
[21:25] <jhutchins> 3.16 is a version of the kernel, which is the core of the operating system.
[21:25] <Qbuo> Uname -r
[21:26] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Not here, command line/console
[21:26] <blackangelpr> go to ubuntu pres ctrl+t then type that
[21:26] <blackangelpr> ctrl +alt +t
[21:26] <blackangelpr> sorry XD
[21:26] <Qbuo> It says: 3.13.0-32-generic
[21:27] <daftykins> ^14.04 trusty out of date
[21:28] <jhutchins> Qbuo: You need a newer kernel, v.3.16 or better should work.  You could install 14.10, it's the current release anyway, or you could download the kernel and transfer it to the machine with a USB drive.
[21:28] <Qbuo> Jhutchins: it says 3.13-0-generic
[21:29] <jhutchins> Qbuo: If you could temporarily you could upgrade directly to 14.10.
[21:29] <Qbuo> Where do i do that from
[21:29] <Qbuo> I welp
[21:29] <daftykins> Qbuo: same way you just installed 14.04.
[21:29] <Qbuo> It took me 13 hours to install 14.04
[21:30] <daftykins> seriously? did you find the floppy edition? :P
[21:30] <Qbuo> No, i just had my whole family on netflix and youtube
[21:30] <cryptodan> Qbuo: doesnt your motherboard also have wired?
[21:30] <Qbuo> Wired wat?
[21:31] <cryptodan> Qbuo: ethernet
[21:31] <Qbuo> Thats what the card is isnt it
[21:31] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Actually, it looks like you need to upgrade to 14.10, 3.16 is not available in trusty.
[21:31] <daftykins> cryptodan: that's what a killer NIC is, silly
[21:31] <cryptodan> he was talking wireless
[21:31] <jhutchins> That's what I understood too.
[21:32] <cryptodan> the killer wired nics usually come with Intel Chipsets
[21:32] <daftykins> ah ok, well i think they do both
[21:32] <Qbuo> On the mobo box it says ethernet congroller
[21:32] <daftykins> state the make and model of board
[21:32] <jhutchins> Qbuo: My recommendation would be to reinstall with 14.10.  That would be the simplest solution.
[21:32] <Qbuo> MSI 7z87m Gaming
[21:32] <easy_> how can I mount a large hard drive I have in an external USB box in 14.04?
[21:33] <daftykins> easy_: it should be auto
[21:33] <Qbuo> *z87m
[21:33] <easy_> no doesn't even show up
[21:34] <xcyclist> Say, what initializes the hostname inside the standard user prompt?
[21:34] <daftykins> ok guys - verdict is it's wired LAN - http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z87M-GAMING.html#hero-specification
[21:34] <daftykins> so that'll be a tip for the new year, don't assume :)
[21:34] <daftykins> "1x Killer E2205 Gigabit LAN controller"
[21:34] <Qbuo> So what do i do
[21:34] <cryptodan> He stated wireless though
[21:35] <blackangelpr> easy_, if you plug it into the usb and do lsusb could you see it?
[21:35] <daftykins> the customer is always wrong ;)
[21:35] <Qbuo> I said i wanted to connect to my wifi is all
[21:35] <easy_> No, not at all
[21:35] <blackangelpr> meh try another usb port just incase
[21:35] <cryptodan> Qbuo: wired lan and wireless lan are totally different
[21:36] <Qbuo> So i need an ethernet cable?
[21:36] <easy_> nope, not listed via lsusb
[21:36] <daftykins> Qbuo: what have you been doing so far? did you think it was wireless?
[21:36] <Qbuo> Yea
[21:37] <daftykins> Qbuo: open a terminal and run this: "ip a" do you see anything other than 'lo' ?
[21:37] <jhutchins> easy_: run dmesg, see if it sees a USB device.  If not you have a hardware problem.
[21:37] <easy_> ip a
[21:37] <wad> I'm back, and I'm not on my phone now! Wow, a real keyboard....
[21:37] <Qbuo> I see eth0
[21:37] <blackangelpr> easy_,  dumb question but it happends some external usb have two usb cable one for data and one for information tranfer if they have two use them
[21:37] <jhutchins> Qbuo: If you have an e2200, it's probably not going to work unless you upgrade to 14.10.
[21:37] <blackangelpr> i mean one for power and one for data
[21:38] <daftykins> Qbuo: yeah so you need to plug a cable in then all will be well
[21:38] <Qbuo> So do i beed to buy an ethernet cable or not!!!
[21:38] <easy_> no, only 1 data usb
[21:38] <jhutchins> easy_: That's because they can draw more power than a single port can supply.
[21:38] <daftykins> jhutchins: totally wrong i'm afraid.
[21:38] <cryptodan> Qbuo: yes if you do not have one
[21:38] <daftykins> Qbuo: well since the board has nothing wireless, yes :P
[21:38] <daftykins> can't believe these guys managed to tread water on your query for so long =|
[21:38] <easy_> has external power suppley
[21:39] <jhutchins> daftykins: I thought they needed 3.16 or greater, but an ubuntu kernel is not a generic kernel.  Will they work with 14.04 (3.13)?
[21:39] <blackangelpr> ok... :P
[21:39] <Qbuo> That sucks, would expect a little more from  a "gaming" motherboard
[21:39] <daftykins> jhutchins: see my link and detail regarding what the motherboard and adapter is
[21:39] <cryptodan> Qbuo: motherboards dont come with networking cables
[21:39] <daftykins> Qbuo: anyone with half a clue about gaming does not use a wireless network :)
[21:39] <Qbuo> I dont feel like sitting with my router up my ass in the licing room
[21:40] <Qbuo> *living
[21:40] <daftykins> Qbuo: you might want to pay a bit more attention to products you buy in future
[21:40] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Please keep the language civil.
[21:40] <daftykins> well, long cables exist y'know
[21:40] <ShalokShalom>  [22:23] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: Probably mounted noexec. ?
[21:40] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: man mount
[21:40] <Qbuo> Yeah, it was a combo deal so ill watch iut next time
[21:40] <jhutchins> Qbuo: Well, read the box.  They usually list the features.
[21:40] <cryptodan> and the gaming term in that is usually a gimmick to get you to pay more for a product
[21:41] <ShalokShalom> [22:24] <cryptodan> "ShalokShalom: using a live session should allow you to get to your drives" not in this case, because the partitions are still "mounted" in hibernate mode
[21:41] <jhutchins> gaming usually wants better performance than wifi offers.
[21:41] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: are you using Windows 8 or 8.1?
[21:41] <ShalokShalom> no
[21:41] <daftykins> easy_: did you run "sudo parted -l" yet? thatd be a good way to see if the disk shows up
[21:41] <ShalokShalom> this is just the same issue in kubuntu
[21:41] <cryptodan> then how can be mounted in hibernate mode?
[21:41] <ShalokShalom> i know what you mean, its exactly that
[21:41] <cryptodan> never heard of such a thing with linux
[21:42] <ShalokShalom> its the first time for me as well
[21:42] <Qbuo> Thanks for the help, will i still need to get 14.10 for t to work?
[21:42] <ShalokShalom> especially in updated LTS version
[21:42] <cryptodan> its either mounted or not
[21:43] <ShalokShalom> this user of the device means, it makes same troubles after the last update
[21:43] <ShalokShalom> idk, if that count as mounted
[21:43] <ShalokShalom> its still in hibernate for sure
[21:43] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: what error messages do you get when you boot it without the live session
[21:43] <ShalokShalom> i can post you the error message of dolphin
[21:43] <ShalokShalom> :)
[21:43] <cryptodan> www.imgur.com it
[21:44] <Qbuo> Jhutchin: will i still need to update to 14.10 after getting an ethernet cable?
[21:44] <easy_> just ran sudo parted -l again and not showing. gives Error: /dev/sr0: unrecognised disk label
[21:44] <daftykins> easy_: sr0 is a CD/DVD
[21:44] <easy_> 30g hard drive
[21:44] <daftykins> what?
[21:44] <ShalokShalom> http://pastebin.com/qJHGUNqq
[21:44] <daftykins> 30 grammes? :)
[21:45] <ShalokShalom> ah, i hope pastebin works as well
[21:46] <easy_> 30g hard drive in external usb box
[21:46] <cryptodan> do an fdisk -l /dev/sda1 and pastebin it
[21:46] <ShalokShalom> ok
[21:47] <ShalokShalom> command not found
[21:47] <ShalokShalom> when i try to install it, it says its already installed
[21:47] <cryptodan> it should be
[21:48] <ShalokShalom> fdisk
[21:48] <ShalokShalom> this is ROSA..
[21:48] <ShalokShalom> [live@localhost ~]$ urpmi fdisk Paket util-linux-2.24.2-5-rosa2014.1.x86_64 ist installiert
[21:48] <clockwork_> Can someone help me set up ffmpeg to output audio via rtp?
[21:49] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: then you need to redo your livecd
[21:49] <ShalokShalom> redo ?
[21:49] <cryptodan> yup its broken
[21:49] <ShalokShalom> aha
[21:49] <ShalokShalom> ok
[21:49] <ShalokShalom> all other things work
[21:49] <ShalokShalom> maybe is fdisk not available in this distro in live mode
[21:52] <cryptodan> no it would have to be for troubleshooting
[21:52] <daftykins> ShalokShalom: that isn't ubuntu
[21:52] <easy_> ok, sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda only shows the internal drive info, nothin on the usb external
[21:52] <Guest6602> hello
[21:53] <zykotick9> easy_: try "sudo fdisk -l"
[21:53] <daftykins> zykotick9: try reading the statement next time ;)
[21:53] <daftykins> easy_: as in, you see a /dev/sdb ?
[21:53] <Guest6602> downloading ubuntu 14
[21:54] <daftykins> Guest6602: alright well once you're there, the support channel here can answer questions you might have
[21:55] <zykotick9> daftykins: i'm still missing something, but if easy wants to see his usb, using "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda" is ONLY going to show sda (most likely internal HD)...
[21:56] <ShalokShalom> i dl and install ubuntu
[21:56] <daftykins> zykotick9: ah my apologies, my festive rapid drinking has had me miss that one!
[21:56] <daftykins> easy_: you are running just "sudo fdisk -l" yes?
[21:56] <ablest1980> hi
[21:56] <zykotick9> daftykins: try reading the statement next time <- :o
[21:57] <daftykins> zykotick9: indeed, indeed... i beg your forgiveness *bows*
[21:57] <zykotick9> ;)
[21:57] <easy_> aggravating lol, internal partitions listed fine, only error was fdisk: unable to seek on /dev/sdb: Invalid argument
[21:57] <daftykins> i'm a little shocked at how many people are spending new years messing with their computers
[21:58] <blackangelpr> bye all happy new year will go to work yeah on new years XD cheers
[21:58] <easy_> lol daftykins
[22:01] <wad> So should I be able to turn of the network manager, add two lines to /etc/network/interfaces ("auto eth0" and "iface eth0 inet dhcp"), and then "service networking restart", and get connected?
[22:01] <wad> Or is there another step I'm missing?
[22:01] <yvear> how do I set up programs to execute with root permissions? i.e. right now I must do 'kdesudo gvim' but I just want to click gvim once on it's desktop icon (kubuntu)
[22:02] <wad> I'm going to try it. Dropping my network. Back in a few.
[22:02] <yvear> s/it's/its
[22:03] <zykotick9> yvear: what you're asking for, probably isn't the best idea... YMMV
[22:04] <yvear> zykotick9, I know, but can you please tell me how?
[22:05] <earthrocka> hello im having trouble playing dvds with ubuntu 14.04 , was wondering if installed that restricted package i seen in the software manager would cure that, or is there something else i need to download
[22:05] <easy_> thanks for trying to help I'm gonna get off here and shove the drive in another computer then share it on network
[22:06] <zykotick9> yvear: sorry i honestly don't know...
[22:09] <MuffinMedic> is there a way to view process output?
[22:10] <cpt_yossarian> MuffinMedic: how do you mean?
[22:10] <EriC^^> MuffinMedic: which process
[22:10] <MuffinMedic> i shoudl explain
[22:10] <daftykins> MuffinMedic: may i congratulate you on the most amusing nickname of the year
[22:10] <MuffinMedic> i have a few python IRC bots, and when i run them, it shows a bunch of output, but when i close the ssh session and log back in, i want to view the output again
[22:10] <MuffinMedic> thanks daftykins !
[22:11] <cryptodan> MuffinMedic: you can log the data to a log file
[22:11] <MuffinMedic> you mean pipe the output? python3.4 .... > file.log?
[22:11] <cpt_yossarian> MuffinMedic: you should either save your output in a file or pipe it into one and run the bots in some kind of terminal multiplexer (GNU screen or tmux)
[22:12] <cpt_yossarian> ^ Either that kind of redirection or use Python's file I/O, which would be clearer
[22:13] <MuffinMedic> Can I save screen sessions?
[22:13] <earthrocka> hello im having trouble playing dvds with ubuntu 14.04 , was wondering if installed that restricted package i seen in the software manager would cure that, or is there something else i need to download
[22:13] <MuffinMedic> nvm found it. thx
[22:13] <cpt_yossarian> you can have them run in the background
[22:13] <cpt_yossarian> and resume them at will
[22:15] <Australopithecus> I keep getting random crashes here is the log I got from /var/log/kern.log after the computer hard froze pastebin.com/iFjDSwur
[22:15] <Bashing-om> earthrocka: Have you installed " ubuntu-restricted-extras " and " libdvdread4 " ?? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs .
[22:16] <Australopithecus> hardfroze again just now
[22:16] <Australopithecus> :(
[22:16] <Australopithecus> maybe I should try a different distro
[22:17] <earthrocka> Bashing-om: thanks
[22:17] <earthrocka> i was having problems with a part of installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:17] <earthrocka> i couldnt scroll down to click on ok
[22:17] <earthrocka> im gonna try that again though
[22:19] <SchrodingersScat> earthrocka: you can always open a terminal and run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:19] <earthrocka> thats how i did it SchrodingersScat
[22:19] <earthrocka> and something still came up to scroll over that said ok
[22:19] <earthrocka> lol
[22:19] <SchrodingersScat> huh, k
[22:19] <earthrocka> im about to try it again though
[22:20] <Bashing-om> earthrocka: What Desktop Environment aare you using ? Makes a difference as to which 'restricted extra' is to be installed .
[22:20] <earthrocka> unity
[22:20] <earthrocka> just figured out how to click on that ok
[22:20] <earthrocka> lol
[22:20] <earthrocka> hit the tab button
[22:21] <Bashing-om> earthrocka: Best I recall, one has to accept Microsoft's EULA . tab to get OK, and enter to accpet (??) .
[22:21] <earthrocka> yep
[22:21] <earthrocka> tab button :)
[22:21] <earthrocka> i got it lol
[22:21] <earthrocka> thanks
[22:22] <earthrocka> after this ill install the libdvdread4
[22:22] <earthrocka> and see how that treats me
[22:23] <Bashing-om> earthrocka: Yep, then -> Then open a terminal window and execute: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh .
[22:28] <earthrocka> still not playing
[22:28] <earthrocka> gonna see if a restart will help that any
[22:36] <ShalokShalom> ia m back
[22:36] <ShalokShalom> who help me before ? :P
[22:37] <ShalokShalom> hibernate issue
[22:37] <cryptodan> that would have been me
[22:37] <ShalokShalom> ah yes
[22:38] <ShalokShalom> which command please ?
[22:38] <ShalokShalom> fdisk ?
[22:38] <ShalokShalom> i am in kubuntu now
[22:38] <cryptodan> sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[22:38] <ShalokShalom> thanks
[22:41] <ShalokShalom> http://pastebin.com/fGs3wSF8
[22:41] <worenga> S_SubZero: afaik
[22:42] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: now can you run a df -kh ?
[22:42] <worenga> happy new year to yall im going out shooting some fireworks now
[22:42] <Church> cryptodan: aren't k & h contradicting?
[22:43] <cryptodan> Church: no
[22:44] <zykotick9> seems to me the -h removed the -k
[22:44] <ShalokShalom> http://pastebin.com/FTstykTq
[22:45] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: can you try mounting the drive again
[22:46] <ShalokShalom> yes
[22:46] <cryptodan> Church and zykotick9 the difference with -h added the -h makes it human readable
[22:46] <cryptodan> http://dpaste.com/3P9TPBF
[22:46] <zykotick9> cryptodan: the -h makes the -k useless, you don't need it.  so "df -h" is the same as "df -hk"
[22:46] <Psk> des francais ?
[22:47] <zykotick9> !fr | Psk
[22:47] <ShalokShalom> http://pastebin.com/zApiK4w9
[22:47] <cryptodan> zykotick9: look at the output which is more user friendly?
[22:47] <yvear> how do I set up gui programs to execute with root permissions? i.e. right now I must do 'kdesudo gvim' but I just want to click gvim once on its desktop icon  I tried making a shell script with these 2 lines:
[22:47] <yvear> #!/bin/sh
[22:47] <yvear> kdesudo gvim
[22:47] <yvear> but it opens only as normal user as if kdesudo isn't used
[22:48] <zykotick9> cryptodan: you don't need the -hk just use -h
[22:48] <Church> cryptodan: -k says "display results in kilobytes". -h "in human readable form". So one OR another :)
[22:48] <cryptodan> again look at my paste
[22:48] <cryptodan> tell me which is better
[22:48] <cryptodan> I prefer df -kh
[22:49] <zykotick9> cryptodan: your paste has the redundant -hk you just need -h
[22:49] <Church> cryptodan: use just -h. k not needed.
[22:49] <cryptodan> look at the difference
[22:49] <cryptodan> wow really
[22:49] <cryptodan> You cannot see the difference
[22:49] <cryptodan> are you blind?
[22:49] <zykotick9> cryptodan: are you?
[22:49] <ShalokShalom> ?
[22:49] <cryptodan> Nope look at my paste
[22:49] <cryptodan> see the freaking the difference
[22:49] <robert__> unity graphics get pixelized after my screen saver kicks in, anything I can do?
[22:50]  * zykotick9 gives up on cryptodan
[22:50] <cryptodan> good because you are blinded zykotick9
[22:50] <robert__> its a hp EliteBook 8650p
[22:50] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: what happens when you boot the system without the live session?
[22:51] <ShalokShalom> now ?
[22:51] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: yes
[22:51] <ShalokShalom> idk, i geuss busy box again ?
[22:51] <ShalokShalom> try ?
[22:51] <cryptodan> yes try and boot and write down any errors you see
[22:52] <ShalokShalom> yes, thanks
[22:54] <S_SubZero> zykotick9: How can I create an Ubuntu installation USB that uses something other than FAT32?
[22:56] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: did you use netbootin?
[22:56] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: you can dd the ubuntu-images to USB directly
[22:59] <S_SubZero> i can't seem to get unetbootin to run, i did chmod +x on the download but it doesnt do anything
[23:00] <zykotick9> S_SubZero: i'd suggest AGAINST using unetbootin
[23:00] <TheTopBloke> TESTING
[23:00] <ShalokShalom> same story
[23:00] <TheTopBloke> booyah
[23:00] <mbff> Hello! Anyone know a good IRC channel to get help on a resume.  Anyone have any good links to best practices?
[23:24] <TimeRider> TheTopBloke http://tube.timerider.co.uk
[23:24] <TimeRider> oops, new years drinked
[23:25] <TheTopBloke> uhh...
[23:28] <WillW> Hey all, I'm trying to set up a network shared folder on an NTFS partition with guest access, using samba. But, when trying to open the folder, it says permission denied. Here is my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9652569/ and here is smb.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9652575/
[23:31] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: what busybox error?
[23:32] <ShalokShalom> cryptodan: no error message
[23:32] <ShalokShalom> just:busy box version etc
[23:32] <ShalokShalom> type help for ...
[23:32] <ShalokShalom> and then the promt:
[23:32] <ShalokShalom> (initramfs)
[23:33] <Foxhoundz> Ubuntu
[23:33] <Foxhoundz> why is the weechat in the default ubuntu repo so outdated?
[23:33] <Foxhoundz> Version 1.0 is out and the Ubuntu repo version shows 0.4.2
[23:33] <Foxhoundz> wtf??
[23:34] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: is it like this http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/120198/how-to-fix-boot-into-initramfs-prompt-and-mount-cant-read-etc-fstab-no-su
[23:34] <rypervenche> Foxhoundz: Ubuntu is not meant to have the latest versions of packages.
[23:34] <zykotick9> !latest | Foxhoundz
[23:34] <ShalokShalom> no
[23:34] <TheTopBloke> so is ubuntu like the starter linux?
[23:35] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: there has to be more to your error message
[23:35] <Foxhoundz> zykotick9: well there is a difference between being stable and being outdated
[23:35] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: or is it this http://askubuntu.com/questions/137655/boot-drops-to-a-initramfs-prompts-busybox
[23:35] <WillW> TheTopBloke: Pretty much, it has a strong community and lots of feature, I recommend starting with ubuntu
[23:35] <Foxhoundz> being 6 major releases behind isn't stable
[23:35] <JWalker95> TheTopBloke: It probably has the best documentation
[23:36] <ShalokShalom> yes, exactly
[23:36] <rypervenche> Foxhoundz: It's not six behind, weechat jumped from 0.4.3. 1.0.0 I believe.
[23:36] <TheTopBloke> I've just noticed there are a lot of features not installed. I'm just using it as a server.
[23:36] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: follow the steps there
[23:36] <ShalokShalom> yes, thanks
[23:36] <ShalokShalom> was this because of hibernate or other reason ?
[23:37] <ShalokShalom> or is this just a bad luck mix ?
[23:37] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: another reason
[23:37] <ShalokShalom> ah, ok
[23:37] <ShalokShalom> so bad mix of 2 issues
[23:37] <WillW> TheTopBloke: yeah, the server has only the features necessary to easily get a server running. What's missing from that?
[23:37] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: more than likely a hard drive failing or a system that was power down without a clean unmount
[23:37] <ShalokShalom> will change the default lid behaviour in my distros from now
[23:38] <TheTopBloke> Yeah I figured that might be the case also. Nothing in particular. Some libaries here and there, stuff like mail, no big deal really.
[23:38] <ShalokShalom> power down without a clean unmount because of sleep ?
[23:39] <ShalokShalom> because the real user of this device say, that the deive sometimes dont go in hibernate, when he close the lid
[23:39] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: yup
[23:39] <WillW> TheTopBloke: I believe email server packages are an option on ubuntu server install, I may be wrong though
[23:39] <ShalokShalom> ah fine
[23:39] <ShalokShalom> thanks
[23:39] <TheTopBloke> no I think you're right.
[23:40] <ShalokShalom> the commands in the tut dont work for this user
[23:40] <TheTopBloke> vi vsftpd.log
[23:40] <TheTopBloke> woops
[23:41] <ShalokShalom> and i have no windows installed
[23:41] <ShalokShalom> so cant follow the tut
[23:41] <cryptodan> ShalokShalom: look at the steps below it
[23:41] <Xandhin> puta q pariu em
[23:41] <TheTopBloke> emacs isn't on there either. IS it on the desktop version?
[23:42] <WillW> TheTopBloke: nope, but its in the repo
[23:42] <rypervenche> TheTopBloke: emacs usually isn't installed by default.
