[18:31] <Abrackadabra> But I have internet connection nevetheless. Is there some kind of service somewhere which makes it possible?
[18:32] <hilo> Is it dangerous to use hdparm sleep modes for sata drives that are members of linuxraid arrays? I had a drive fall out of sync of my linuxraid level 5 this weekend after setting them to spin down after x minutes of inactivity. It has rebuilt successfully and the drive seems okay, but now I am not sure if the drive is dying or the standby mode caused the rebuild. Can someone please help or point me in the right direction?
[18:33] <openvoid> hilo, i'm sure it is because of standby
[18:33] <H4k> hi all
[18:33] <H4k> !list
[18:34] <hilo> openvoid, So is there any option for saving power and life span for members of raidlinux? The server runs 24/7 but is only access once every 6-12 hours.
[18:34] <bekks> hilo: No.
[18:35] <hilo> Thanks
[18:35] <openvoid> hilo, spinup/down often wears resource worse than constant spin
[18:35] <Abrackadabra> guys? =(

[18:40] <bekks> Abrackadabra: Whats that <IP_ADDRESS> network? You campus network?
[18:40] <Abrackadabra> Yes
[18:40] <samflynn> Всем привет. Диалог виду с помощью переводчика. Я с таким вопросом. Есть у кого книга "Программируем на Python" М. Доусон?
[18:40] <samflynn> =)
[18:40] <samflynn> Hello. Dialogue form with the help of an interpreter. I'm such a question. Does anyone have the book "programming in Python" M. Dawson?
[18:41] <bekks> Abrackadabra: Then why did you say your server is NOT connected to your campus network?
[18:41] <bekks> Abrackadabra: I asked you two times.
[18:42] <genera> how would the usb radio modem stick look like in that netstat output?
[18:42] <Abrackadabra> Well, you asked about internet the first time, and there is no internet in the local network
[18:42] <Abrackadabra> Sorry if I understood you wrong
[18:43] <vvpalin> Abrackadabra, a reverse ssh shell will work, basically you get a server setup ssh and then forward ports back to yourself. It will allow you to login as long as you have a connection to that server
[18:43] <bekks> Abrackadabra: I asked you two times wether your server has another connection rather than USB LTE. You answered no. Obviously you have a wifi attached AND another ethernet connection.
[18:43] <bekks> Abrackadabra: So thats the point where I am out of that ticket.
[18:45] <Abrackadabra> Well, thanks
[18:49] <Zuu_> hey

[18:52] <Zuu_> ATI HD4670
[18:53] <Zuu_> it's an AGP slot card
[18:53] <nedev> hey

[18:53] <nedev> http://pastebin.com/9AvmWphA
[18:53] <wols_> *fglrx
[18:53] <nedev> any idea?
[18:53] <Hesse2> Guten Abend!
[18:54] <sk1special> someone have a good iso converter? so i can make a bootable thumbdrive
[18:54] <wols_> nedev: use upstart as the nice messages tell you to
[18:55] <_Tristan> Hello. when I use xbacklight to change my brightness, it's all like animationey and smooth. How can I make my brightness keys work like that?
[18:55] <woot-0854> sk1special: are you making a .iso file?
[18:55] <Zizilk> sorry for question, but where can i find information about tablet PC's that can probably support Ubuntu. I found hardware prequsites but they seem's for tablet and smartphone developers. I found device with double core 1GHz 1gb RAM also with hdmi and usb-host onboard. But i wnna be sure that i can install ubuntu on it (this tablet has android 4.0 onboard)
[18:56] <sk1special> taking a iso of windows rp and making it into a bootable usb so i can install
[18:56] <woot-0854> sk1special: idk 4 windows
[18:57] <SpaceRocket> I using Mac Ubuntu on Macbook but there is no sound there is red light coming out from the headphone jack
[18:57] <OerHeks> sk1special, check the microsoft msdn network, they have an usb installer for windows.
[18:57] <Zuu_> sorry, how do I use fglrx?
[18:58] <sk1special> they do but i was looking for a different program to see if itd work better. the grub menu wont load my usb ( and yes i updated it and yes it works on other comps so i know it works )
[18:58] <nedev> well, wols_ , Upstart wont work
[18:58] <nedev> user@user-VirtualBox:/etc/init.d$ ./squid3 Upstart Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service squid3 Upstart
[18:59] <sk1special> and grub also gives me some error message when i try to use f12 and it skips my bios settings to load directly to usb first
[18:59] <Zuu_> wols: it does show up though on the list of hw
[18:59] <woot-0854> sk1special: the grub loader should always boot.  but the construction of the windows fs is compatable w/o chainloader+1 ?
[19:00] <yakster> does anyone know of a good way to restore a Virtualbox working install, to a hardware restore?
[19:00] <sk1special> woot: idk what the last half of that means lol. but when i try it in grub it says.. hd2 cannot get c/h/s values no such device and it attempts to load my floppy drive
[19:00] <yakster> migrate VirtualBox to Hardware?
[19:01] <woot-0854> yakster: clone
[19:01] <sk1special> and i checked in the disk manager utility and it is the proper device path/name/whatever
[19:01] <n1_> hi. is there any shell script text editor with "run" command/button for ubuntu and which?
[19:01] <yakster> ok, jsut boot my VM with clonezilla and do a bit4bit copy?
[19:01] <woot-0854> yakster: write a grub
[19:02] <woot-0854> yakster: or a cd would work I guess. idk os we are talking about
[19:02] <yakster> ubutnu Music Brainz server…
[19:02] <woot-0854> sk1special: grub needs chainloader+1 for windows boot
[19:03] <yakster> I am not using any wondows, I have a dedicated maching to run the musicbrainz server
[19:03] <sk1special> woot: what is that? and what do i do for that? my running copy of windows loads fine..just not the update im trying to install off the usb
[19:03] <woot-0854> sk1special: oh so have you used isomagic to rewrite the iso?
[19:04] <sk1special> no i used to recommended windows program downloaded & created the usb. it works fine on my other pc. it just wont load under grub here
[19:05] <woot-0854> sk1special: is the disk array setup diffrent?
[19:06] <sk1special> when i try to use f12 to go to the boot device menu directly and select it instead of showing the device list it shows exiting pxe rom no such device grub rescue.
[19:06] <woot-0854> sk1special: f2 and change boot order on bios
[19:06] <OerHeks> sk1special, hold shift @ boot to enter grub menu
[19:06] <sk1special> woot: not sure what you mean by disk array. i have two hdds in here. windows on my primary and ubuntu on the secondary. ubuntu and windows recognize the usb as a copy of windows upgrade whatever..
[19:07] <sk1special> i allready changed the boot order in bios to default to usb also..and grub shows up instead.
[19:07] <sk1special> OerHeks: what do i do once im in the grub menu? it does show the usb..it just wont let me boot to it
[19:08] <OerHeks> sk1special, not sure what to do with windows on a stick.
[19:09] <sk1special> OerHeks: its supposed to just boot to it..and i know what to do once i get there. its just that grub is not letting me boot to it.
[19:09] <woot-0854> sk1special: did you try the command chainloader+1?
[19:10] <sk1special> woot: no..  just sudo chainloader+1 in the grub command line ?
[19:10] <woot-0854> no sudo
[19:10] <sk1special> so just go into the command line at the grub menu and type chainloader+1  and enter?
[19:10] <woot-0854> sk1special: I think so
[19:10] <woot-0854> sk1special: I dont know windows very well
[19:11] <sk1special> hmm. okay ill try it .. brb
[19:11] <woot-0854> sk1special: on sec
[19:11] <woot-0854> crud
[19:11] <woot-0854> Hello Ubuntu!
[19:12] <woot-0854> echo "Hello"
[19:19] <sk1special> okay so. chainloader+1 is a no go. chainloader asks for a file name. so i tried the /dev/sdc1 that it lists my thumbdrive as. no go. so i tried just usb to get a device name list. shows nothing. tried updating grub again..and checking disk utility again. they all say its there as /dev/sdc1. what now?
[19:20] <sk1special> usb shows nothing as in there is nothing there not the command didnt work *

[19:24] <Titomen>  nows how to add allpartition of a new hardrive on initramsfs
[19:25] <sk1special> is there a way i can just disable grub completely and still get into ubuntu to turn it back on? like for a single startup or something?
[19:26] <sk1special> woot: sall good. just lame that what should work never does lol
[19:26] <BluesKaj> sk1special, what make is your usb drive
[19:27] <sk1special> Sony Ericsson
[19:28] <sk1special> BluesKaj: but its a adapter thumbdrive that i plug a micro sd card into. it loads on the other computer tho and it worked fine originally installing windows and ubuntu on here
[19:28] <Titomen> anybody knows how to add all partitions of sda to sdb on initrmsf..i have raid software on ubuntu..my gard drive failed, place a new one and have to copy partitiuons
[19:30] <BluesKaj> then it's listed , run sudo fdisk -l to see what it's device designation is , then you may be able to mount it
[19:30] <Orpheon> Hello, I have a small problem with installing a printer. It's a HP Deskjet 5150, and lsusb recognizes it correctly, yet it doesn't appear in "Printing" or "Printing-->Add"
[19:30] <Orpheon> any ideas how to get it to work?
[19:30] <bekks> !details | Orpheon
[19:32] <sk1special> http://pastebin.com/CWtsPECy
[19:32] <sk1special> and the disk utility says its mounted allready tho
[19:32] <Orpheon> I have a problem with installing my USB printer. Running ubuntu 12.04 64 bit. When I try to open "Printing" to install my printer, and click on Add, I do not see my printer in the list to configure, just "URI" and "Network devices". I tried running lsusb, and it returned Bus 002 Device 010: ID 03f0:6204 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 5150c, which is correct, but the GUI Printing doesn't recognize it.
[19:33] <Orpheon> bekks, ^
[19:33] <n1> i have a problem with vodafone mobile connect dongle, think the saki3g script is my last option, but returns error when run it in terminal
[19:34] <TJ-> Unity notification pop-up background colour has changed to light-grey since logging in using XFCE4 instead of Unity. Any ideas what setting that will have altered and how to correct it?
[19:35] <n1> where to upload ubuntu scripts?
[19:35] <gmachine_24> I need to wipe a hard drive completely - using dd to zero-out the hard drive, is this considered a legit way to destroy data?
[19:36] <TJ-> gmachine_24: Yes. Although to meet some security standards you must use particular procedures including patterns and multiple passes
[19:36] <k1l> gmachine_24: take a look at "shred"
[19:37] <gmachine_24> TJ-, thanks. I am going to do multiple overwrites. I use "shred" now for files/folders.........
[19:38] <bekks> gmachine_24: You have to use patterns, as well.
[19:38] <Heebie-home> Is anyone here using ZFS as root and other filesystems on their Ubuntu 12.04 system?
[19:38] <gmachine_24> bekks, yeah, I'm going to use patterns.
[19:38] <gmachine_24> as well
[19:39] <gmachine_24> I gues
[19:39] <gmachine_24> s
[19:39] <bekks> gmachine_24: With dd? :D
[19:39] <bekks> gmachine_24: Just use shred. :)
[19:39] <gmachine_24> OK, shred seems to be the winner.
[19:40] <gordonjcp> gmachine_24: what, for overwriting disks?
[19:40] <Heebie-home> What type of filesystem are you trying to shred stuff on?
[19:40] <gordonjcp> gmachine_24: a single pass of /dev/zero will wipe everything beyond recovery
[19:40] <gmachine_24> gordonjcp, yes.
[19:40] <gordonjcp> apart from mapped-out sectors
[19:40] <gordonjcp> but then they've been mapped out because they're not reliably readable
[19:41] <gordonjcp> the whole thing about needing to write a million times with different patterns is nonsense, unless you're using 20-year-old disks
[19:41] <gmachine_24> What I am doing is reloading win7 onto the laptop I'm typing on right now - I've been running Ubuntu for years but I want to sell it and I've backed up everything I need but to sell it I need to reinstall Win7
[19:41] <Heebie-home> It is a good idea to use some random data.
[19:41] <gordonjcp> Heebie-home: makes no difference
[19:42]  * nibbier would use if=/dev/random ;-)
[19:42] <nibbier> good things take time
[19:42] <gordonjcp> nibbier: too slow
[19:42] <gordonjcp> anyway, *it makes no difference*
[19:42] <gmachine_24> are you guys going to start insulting each other's mothers?
[19:42] <gordonjcp> the bitstream is well scrambled before it's actually written to the disk
[19:42] <Heebie-home> do be sure to write whatever you're using the physical device.
[19:43] <gordonjcp> so even if you send all /dev/zero it's effectively a pseudorandom bitstream that's written
[19:43] <nibbier> i would have suggested /dev/urandom but thats explicitly not recommended for cryptography!!11
[19:43] <gordonjcp> in any case, if you read the disk all you'll get back is zeros
[19:43] <gordonjcp> there is no way to read what was on the disk before you overwrote it, it is *gone*
[19:44] <gmachine_24> what would kim dotcom do?
[19:44] <gordonjcp> the NSA do not have a big magic machine that can amazingly recover overwritten data
[19:44] <bekks> Take all your money.
[19:44] <gmachine_24> No BMM?
[19:44] <k-stz> how do i unbind a keybinding?
[19:44] <gmachine_24> I thought that is what they are building in the Utah desert
[19:44] <gordonjcp> gmachine_24: modern disks record using something similar to QAM like you use for digital TV
[19:45] <gordonjcp> now
[19:45] <k1l> !ot | gmachine_24
[19:45] <gordonjcp> on very, very old disks where bits were written with north-to-south transitions or south-to-north transitions
[19:45] <gmachine_24> yes, I know, off topic
[19:45] <l0p3n> k-stz: unalias
[19:45] <gordonjcp> it was theoretically possible (but not practically possible) to sniff the "tolerance" in each transition and make a guess at what the bit was last time
[19:45] <gordonjcp> gmachine_24: modern disks haven't been able to do this for 20 years or so
[19:46] <gmachine_24> OK, all - I do thank you for your help and knowledge.
[19:46] <Heebie-home> It's not impossible, just exremely, ridiculously, e
[19:46] <k-stz> l0p3n: how do i use this? i want to remove bind from L_CTRL i think its keycode is 37
[19:46] <Heebie-home> ludicrously, insanely impractical
[19:47] <gordonjcp> Heebie-home: no, it's impossible
[19:47] <gordonjcp> Heebie-home: not with old disks, right enough
[19:47] <gordonjcp> Heebie-home: with anything >2GB, totally impossible
[19:47] <naczu> Hello ! is there anyone to help me about desktop recorders
[19:47] <gordonjcp> Heebie-home: it's hard enough to distinguish the desired signal from noise ;-)
[19:47] <naczu> here is my last resort
[19:47] <l0p3n> k-stz: aha I thought you meant alias

[19:49] <Heebie-home> I'm trying to get Ubuntu 12.04 (64-bit) working with ZFS pools for the disks using this tutorial: https://github.com/dajhorn/pkg-zfs/wiki/HOWTO-install-Ubuntu-to-a-Native-ZFS-Root-Filesystem   For some reason, when I go to boot into the running system, it tells me that a device cannot be found, so it can't load a kernel.) or possibly vice-versa)
[19:50] <bekks> Heebie-home: Then omit that ZFS stuff in linux.
[19:52] <k-stz> how do i reset the keyboard layout?
[19:52] <vvpalin> pour some water on it
[19:52] <Heebie-home> bekks: Did you actually read my message? :/  The point is getting it working with ZFS. (for screaming I/O performance)
[19:53] <bekks> Heebie-home: For screaming I/O performance I'd NEVER user ZFS on Linux, due to the fact that it is a useland implementation and no kernelspace implementation.
[19:53] <Heebie-home> It's not userland anymore, it's mainstream kernel. :/
[19:54] <bekks> Heebie-home: Since when? :)
[19:54] <k-stz> doesn't anyone know where ubuntu gets the information to customize keyboard
[19:54] <Heebie-home> Since a while ago now.  It even has Linus' blessing as far as I know.
[19:54] <Heebie-home> The only thing giving me problems is using it as a root filesystem.
[19:55] <tripper> Hey.
[19:55] <tripper> I'm having sound issues with Lucid.
[19:55] <tripper> It's on a Toshiba NB205
[19:56] <tripper> Weird thing is, at the GDM, it plays the little bongo chime thing.
[19:56] <l0p3n> k-stz: Maybe this will help you: http://askubuntu.com/questions/395/how-do-i-reset-my-keyboard-layout
[19:56] <tripper> But when using gnome-sound-properties or whatever it is (I just open it from gnome-control-center)
[19:56] <tripper> it only gives a dummy output
[19:56] <tripper> help
[19:56] <tripper> ;_;
[19:58] <bekks> Heebie-home: I've double checked it. There is not a single byte of ZFS supporting code in the kernel up to 3.6.2 - and there is no native ZFS (kernelspace, not userland) on linux thats GPL licensed too.
[19:58] <bekks> s/too/either/
[19:59] <Heebie-home> Well, I guess it's not blessed then. :(
[20:00] <Heebie-home> It does exist, I guess it must be considered to "taint" the kernel.  I still want to get it working. :)  (Unless someone can think of another way to use a few small SSD's as read and write cache for big piles of disk.)

[20:11] <Titomen> i have read for 24 hours and no success..
[20:11] <Titomen> i have 4 raids...and it looks that the first one got the whole sdc as a mirror instead of sdc1..so can not recosnstruc anything

[20:12] <tripper> I have a problem with ALSA. I'm running 10.04 on a Toshiba NB205. Audio doesn't work. Strange thing is I hear the little bongo thing at the GDM just fine. It's only when I log in that it doesn't work. I've tried adding myself to group audio. No luck. All I have in the gnome audio preferences is a dummy output.
[20:13] <tripper> Please help.
[20:13] <tripper> It's really bothering me.
[20:13] <nibbier> Titomen, and while you are at it, add fdisk -l aswell
[20:13] <tripper> nibbier: TJ-: Any thoughts?
[20:13] <nibbier> tripper, no clue, did you check that your volume levels are up, right hardware is selected etc?
[20:14] <tripper> Well, what do you mean right hardware selected? It's obviously fine since I'm getting audio at the GDM.
[20:14] <Tdaug> Is there a way for me to permanently resize the terminal in ubuntu?  I use it fullscreen all the time, and  I have to resize it every time..
[20:15] <tripper> The problem is that I get a dummy output and nothing else in the gnome sound preferences.
[20:15] <TJ-> tripper: Ages since I touched 10.04, but I'd be looking for custom settings in the pulseaudo config for the user you're logging in as. A good test is to create a new user and log-in as that. If it works you know the problem local to the user profile
[20:15] <nibbier> Tdaug, possibly check out "maximus"
[20:15] <tripper> TJ-: ok, will try
[20:15] <TJ-> Tdaug: You can save the terminal size in the profile settings
[20:15] <Titomen> have 4 raid raid 1 boot swap on raid 1 system raid 5 and fyles on raid 5 3 500 gig sda sdb sdc..good for 5 years..2 days ago crash
[20:16] <TJ-> Tdaug: Edit > Profile Preferences > General on 12.04 with gnome-terminal
[20:16] <kostkon> tripper, gdm uses alsa directly. after you login pulseaudio takes over to some degree
[20:16] <kostkon> tripper, try giving: aplay -l
[20:16] <kostkon> tripper, also, does your laptop have a modem?
[20:16] <tripper> kostkon: no it doesn't
[20:16] <tripper> no modem
[20:16] <tripper> **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
[20:16] <tripper> card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC272 Analog [ALC272 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[20:16] <nibbier> Titomen, /proc/mdstat and fdisk -l please
[20:16] <Titomen> i replace for a new one but forgot to copy partitions from the others..and now i have md2 inactive and md0 is active but it looks is using the complete hard drive since it is sda1 +sdb + sdc1
[20:16] <tripper> that's my output for aplay -l
[20:17] <kostkon> tripper, try this: open your home folder, press CTRL+H and then find and delete your .pulse folder
[20:17] <tripper> so rm ~/.pulse?
[20:17] <kostkon> or that yes
[20:17] <Titomen> i am at initrams and fdisk -l does not work
[20:17] <tripper> Done.
[20:17] <Tdaug> TJ-:  Thanks :)
[20:17] <tripper> What now, log out and in?
[20:17] <kostkon> tripper, then kill pulseaudio:  pulseaudio -k
[20:18] <tripper> E: main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such process
[20:18] <Titomen> the rest basically says md0 active..md1 degrade mode md2 degrade mode and md1 inactive
[20:18] <tripper> Was pulse never running?
[20:18] <kostkon> tripper, hmmm. try to run it then, give:  pulseaudio -D
[20:18] <tripper> E: main.c: Daemon startup failed.
[20:19] <kostkon> tripper, hmmm
[20:19] <tripper> So it can't even start is the problem.
[20:19] <kostkon> tripper, it seems
[20:19] <tripper> it seems?
[20:19] <tripper> gosh, that's helpful
[20:20] <kostkon> tripper, and are you sure that youve deleted the .pulse folder
[20:20] <tripper> um
[20:20] <tripper> lemme check
[20:20] <tripper> ok lolwat
[20:20] <tripper> .pulse is still there
[20:20] <kostkon> ...
[20:20] <kostkon> tripper, delete it and try pulseaudio -D again
[20:21] <tripper> NOPE.
[20:21] <tripper> Still failing.
[20:21] <tripper> And then it creates .pulse again.
[20:21] <kostkon> tripper, ok
[20:21] <kostkon> then try again now
[20:21] <tripper> Can I just somehow set myself up to use ALSA directly?
[20:21] <TJ-> tripper: Try running without "-D" and add instead "-vvvvv"
[20:22] <tripper> ok
[20:22] <TJ-> tripper: That will not detach from the console, and will print a lot of debug info that might tell you what is wrong
[20:22] <tripper> oh jeez that's verbose
[20:22] <tripper> hold on

[20:22] <TJ-> tripper: thanks :)
[20:24] <ls612> stupid question time here, when I set up my machine with 12.04 dual booting win7, the ubuntu setup never asked me for a root password. How can I perform sys admin tasks that require root privileges?
[20:24] <bekks> ls612: By using "sudo".
[20:24] <bekks> !sudo | ls612
[20:24] <guntbert> !root | ls612
[20:25] <diggalo> hello! I'm getting this problem where flash and spotify are skipping or repeating bits for a few seconds
[20:26] <diggalo> what could be causing this?
[20:26] <Titomen> can i paste pictures into pastebin?
[20:26] <diggalo> It might be every application, but I have only noticed with flash and spotify
[20:27] <Titomen> so i can show the cat and the fdisk -l
[20:27] <wilee-nilee> http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add Titomen
[20:27] <tripper> TJ-: kostkon:

[20:27] <ls612> Boy do I feel stupid. I didn't realize that was what sudo did. *hits self on head*. Sorry for wasting your time.
[20:28] <bekks> Titomen: cat and fdisk -l dont produce picture, but pure text.
[20:28] <guntbert> ls612: you wasted nothing - keep on learning :)
[20:28] <tripper> It's apparently trying to bind to a socket that's already bound to.
[20:28] <tripper> Now what?
[20:28] <guntbert> !pastebin | tripper
[20:28] <tripper> I'm sorry I'm sorry

[20:29] <home> hey guys
[20:30] <home> I need a .deb file for Eclipse C++ build, for Ubuntu Builder
[20:30] <home> trying to make my own Ubuntu Custom DVD
[20:30] <home> but I can't find this deb file
[20:30] <bekks> home: Then build that deb yourself, since it does not exist.
[20:30] <kostkon> tripper, to be sure try reinstalling it:  sudo apt-get install pulseaudio --reinstall
[20:30] <Titomen> http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_16-22-39_907-HC0KogZS.jpg and http://picpaste.com/upload.php
[20:30] <tripper> kostkon: ok
[20:30] <home> bekks: :o how would I do that?
[20:30] <Titomen> this is the result of cat /proc/mdstat and fdisk -l
[20:30] <home> bekks: does it take long?
[20:31] <bekks> Titomen: In the initramfs, most commands do not exist.
[20:31] <kostkon> tripper, if it's a fresh installation, give sudo apt-get autoclean first
[20:31] <tripper> it isn't fresh
[20:31] <bekks> home: The longest part will be to learn about how to create a .deb package.
[20:31] <Titomen> bekks: so what can i do to restart my raids?
[20:31] <home> bekks: can you create one for me <3
[20:31] <bekks> Titomen: Use a live CD.
[20:31] <bekks> home: No.
[20:31] <tripper> kostkon: reinstalling
[20:31] <home> aw :/
[20:32] <tripper> NOPE.
[20:32] <tripper> Still doesn't start.
[20:32] <Titomen> bekks: but is is a raid will that work?
[20:32] <kostkon> tripper, ok.  delete the .pulse folder again
[20:32] <kostkon> tripper, and try again
[20:33] <tripper> Yeeeeeah, no.
[20:33] <tripper> Doesn't work.
[20:33] <bekks> Titomen: It is your only chance.
[20:33] <nibbier> what is the reason the boot process gives you for dropping to initramfs-shell? "could not mount root"
[20:33] <Titomen> bekks: do you see that the md0 is using sdc ( i believe as the whole disk?
[20:33] <kostkon> tripper, same error?
[20:33] <tripper> yup
[20:33] <bekks> Titomen: No. Since you did not provide that picture.
[20:33] <jagginess> nibbier, when you compiled a crappy kernel it can do that
[20:34] <Titomen> nibbier: one of the hard drive went bad and i replace it..i think my mistake was not the copy the partitions and now md0 is using the whole disk..i am a newbe..sorry if i sound dome
[20:34] <tripper> kostkon: ideas?
[20:34] <nibbier> Titomen, i asked a specific question about what message you read when you drop to the initramfs-shell
[20:35] <Titomen> md to is inactive can not be assembel
[20:35] <Titomen> md2 sorry
[20:35] <Cong> How is this done? Edit and re-execute a command with fc.
[20:35] <Titomen> bekks: http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_16-22-09_761-knoLWFRX.jpg here is the picture
[20:35] <kostkon> tripper, actually, try this, give:   fuser -v /dev/snd/* /dev/dsp*    and paste the output somewhere
[20:35] <nibbier> Titomen, and md2 would be what? your / ?
[20:35] <bekks> Titomen: Then use a livecd, and reassemble your drives the way you want them.
[20:35] <Titomen> yes
[20:36] <bekks> Titomen: Be sure to have a backup of ALL your data.
[20:36] <tripper> kostkon: /dev/snd/controlC0:  yestin     1654 F.... pulseaudio
[20:36] <kostkon> tripper, so, it is running already??? give:   ps -A | grep pulse
[20:36] <tripper>  1654 ?        00:00:01 pulseaudio
[20:37] <nibbier> Titomen, what raid level would md2 be on?
[20:37] <tripper> and then I try -k
[20:37] <kostkon> tripper, good. open your sound prefs
[20:37] <tripper> and it says no such process
[20:37] <Titomen> nibbier: raid 5
[20:37] <nibbier> Titomen, of how many devices? and would it contain your root partition? (/)
[20:38] <Titomen> nibbier did you see the picture..did you also see that on md0 sdc looks like is using the complete new drive
[20:38] <bekks> Titomen: Yes, it does use the whole disk. Now what? :)
[20:38] <tripper> kostkon: now it says waiting for sound system to respond
[20:38] <Titomen> nibbier: it should be sdc1
[20:38] <tripper> just a little dialog box
[20:38] <nibbier> Titomen, yes, thats wrong most likely, but thats not a problem, just remove it, copy over the partition table and add the single partiton to the corresponding md arrays
[20:38] <bekks> Titomen: How many drives should be in md2? And how many are in md2?
[20:39] <kostkon> tripper, try: pkill pulseaudio
[20:39] <kostkon> tripper, then try again to run it
[20:40] <tripper> kostkon: it all works now
[20:40] <tripper> it autorestarted once I pkilled it
[20:40] <kostkon> tripper, !
[20:40] <tripper> and speaker-test produces pink noise!
[20:40] <tripper> YAY!
[20:40]  * tripper higs kostkon, no homo
[20:40] <tripper> hugs even
[20:40] <home> nvm
[20:40] <Titomen> there are 3 500 gig drives divided in raid 1 md0 (boot) raid 1 md1 (swap) raid 5 md2 (system) raid 5 md2 (files)
[20:40] <bekks> Titomen: So you dont want to answer the questions?
[20:40] <tripper> ok thanks #ubuntu
[20:40] <tripper> I'm off
[20:40] <bekks> Titomen: How many drives should be in md2? And how many are in md2?
[20:41] <kostkon> tripper, open your sound prefs
[20:41] <kostkon> :/
[20:41] <Titomen> bekks: 3
[20:42] <nibbier> Titomen, and at 3 devices it would be 2 striped ones and a parity one, or a degraded 4-disk raid? :-)
[20:42] <Titomen> nibbier: sorry..how can i do that?
[20:42] <bekks> Titomen: "3" is an answer to one of my questions. Please answer both.
[20:44] <zymaster> Hello, I have a question. What is the best way to make Ubuntu have a cleaner ui and not be so bulky as unity? I sort of like the Windows 7 ui because it doesn't get in the way that much and still looks nice, but I hate Windows for pretty much every other aspect of it. Anyway to make Ubuntu's ui a little more clean and minimalist?
[20:44] <teemperor> zymaster: you could try xubuntu/lubuntu
[20:44] <nibbier> Titomen,  mdadm /dev/md0 -f /dev/sdc -r /dev/sdc
[20:44] <Titomen> bekks: there should be 3 and tere are 3.
[20:45] <ls612> I have another dumb question. My CPU is an i7-3610 chip, and it runs considerably hotter in Ubuntu than in Win7. Is there something that i can do to change that?
[20:45] <teemperor> zymaster: that are respins of ubuntu, with a other ui :)
[20:45] <Titomen> nibbier: let me try that
[20:45] <bekks> Titomen: Then your RAID is perffectly up.
[20:45] <nibbier> Titomen, that would remove it, then you use sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sfdisk /dev/sdc
[20:45] <zymaster> teemperor: I will look at some of those
[20:45] <bekks> Titomen: I guess md2 is still degraded - correct?
[20:45] <nibbier> bekks, not according to the screenshot http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_16-22-09_761-knoLWFRX.jpg
[20:46] <teemperor> zymaster: or you try something that is based on ubuntu like elementary, the pro of linux: freedom of choice :)
[20:46] <zymaster> ok
[20:47] <Cong> Is it possible to telnet to the same computer running telnetd?
[20:47] <nibbier> bekks, Titomen: I'm not really sure why the md2 output is so incomplete (raid level not mentioned) and what the (S) means....
[20:47] <bekks> nibbier: But according to the answers "3" and "3" :)
[20:47] <nibbier> Cong, sure
[20:47] <home> ls612: how do you know that?
[20:47] <nibbier> bekks, i think the answers don't reflect reality, but target situation ,-)
[20:47] <zymaster> oh wow really like elementary very clean and easy to use and still looks nice. All the other alternatives seemed minimalist and easy to use but didn't look very nice.
[20:47] <bekks> nibbier: It usually means that there were too less disks to actually assemble the array.
[20:47] <home> ls612: You should be able to throttle your clockspeds, to get some very low temperatures.. Just make sure that your fan speeds are optimal.
[20:48] <bekks> nibbier: So only one of three was found.
[20:48] <nibbier> bekks, which sounds to me as if the 3-disk array was already degraded.... which means its game over anyway
[20:48] <home> ls612: it could be a hardware issue, ad I suggest taking it to ##hardware
[20:48] <bekks> nibbier: Correct.
[20:48] <Cong> nibbier, telnet replies with unable to connect. help me.
[20:49] <nibbier> bekks, (S) is spare. i'd be worried
[20:49] <teemperor> zymaster: you could also take a look on kubuntu :) its windows7-like with the ui. elementaryOS isn't out yet, i post you a link to the quite stable beta if you want
[20:49] <bekks> nibbier: only the spare is found - game over.
[20:49] <guntbert> Cong: what are you trying to do? the telnet daemon is not enabled by default - for a very good reason
[20:49] <ls612> home: Only empirically. It definitely feels much hotter in ubuntu than in Win7 to my hand. I doubt it's hardware because it works perfectly fine and is reasonably cool in Win7. Is there a command I can run to get the CPU temp?
[20:49] <guntbert> !sensors | ls612
[20:50] <bekks> Titomen: Do you have a backup of your data?
[20:50] <TJ-> nibbier: I seem to recall "S" means "Syncing" when a new device is added to the array
[20:50] <Cong> guntbert, I want to see how telnet works. I didn't the configuring. Set up inetd, removed the commented telnetd line from /etc/inetd.conf.
[20:50] <nibbier> Titomen, it seems both your disks of md2 are considered as spare units, so its not even recognized as a degraded raid - either your orignigal raid confi lacked the redundancy or something else went compeltely wrong. my bet is you wont be able to fix anything here and its time to grasp for the backups
[20:50] <zymaster> teemperor: that would be great if you could provide it
[20:50] <nibbier> TJ-, but then you would see the sync-status also
[20:51] <bekks> TJ-: Then the array would show two disks at least.
[20:51] <TJ-> nibbier: bekks True. It's a while since any of my arrays went south
[20:52] <nibbier> Cong, well.. 1st you should not use telnet. use ssh instead. if you need telnet to be running, make sure the process is up or xinetd/inetd is up and properly configured=
[20:52] <teemperor> zymaster: http://sourceforge.net/projects/elementaryos/files/unstable/  best is to burn a live-usb with it ( http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu ). Take care of data-loss, so make a backup of data of you usb-stick. If you can't boot from usb, cd is the other option :)
[20:53] <zymaster> Actually I might just go with a better dock than the unity panel thing. Best way to get rid of it?
[20:53] <bekks> Titomen: Are you still there?
[20:53] <teemperor> zymaster: give me a minute to answer that ;)
[20:54] <DaLawwd> Wow Ubuntu is still alive and kicking? Thought everybody jumped ship when Gnome3 came out?
[20:54] <guntbert> !ot | DaLawwd
[20:55] <bekks> DaLawwd: Welcome to the largest support channel on freenode. Feel free to proceed to the offtopic area :)
[20:55] <Cong> nibbier, inetd is running. I telnet to <IP_ADDRESS> 23 but it does not connect. How do I set it up?
[20:55] <agrester> Have a question:  I have the following hd partitions [Windows][Empty][Ubuntu-XFCE][swap], I'm trying to install a second ubuntu to the empty partition but I want a whole other contained system.  When running the installer I check "do something else" and what options do I use on that partition do get it to install correctly?
[20:55] <gordonjcp> Cong: woah woah stop, telnet?
[20:55] <gordonjcp> Cong: What exactly are you trying to do?
[20:55] <DaLawwd> \j # xda-developers
[20:55] <zykotick9> Cong: WHY do you want to use telnet?
[20:55] <bekks> agrester: Pastebin the entire output of "sudo fdisk -l" please.
[20:55] <bekks> !pastebin | agrester
[20:56] <nibbier> Cong, for me it was just "sudo apt-get install telnetd"
[20:56] <agrester> bekks not at the system right now
[20:56] <bekks> agrester: Then get to that system :)
[20:56] <jaimerave> Hey guys I'm trying to compile Wine on Ubuntu 12.10 but after I made ./configure at the end i get "configure: libOSMesa development files not found (or too old), OpenGL rendering in bitmaps won't be supported.". I have libosmesa6 and libosmesa6-dev installed, versions 9.0-0ubuntu1 and this is Ubuntu 32 bits. Any ideas?
[20:56] <agrester> but I know that the empty partition is [ext4-40gig]
[20:56] <nibbier> con-man, besides that, answer gordonjcp's question ;-)
[20:56] <nibbier> cong, besides that, answer gordonjcp's question ;-) (sorry con-man)
[20:56] <Cong> nibbier, I have installed inetd and inetutils-inetd.
[20:57] <wilee-nilee> !12.10 > jaimerave
[20:58] <agrester> bekks, they are mounted as follows [Windows \boot][ext4 empty][Ubuntu \][swap]
[20:58] <jaimerave> Thanks wilee-nilee
[20:58] <Cong> nibbier, I meant I have installed inetutils-inetd and inetutils-telnetd.
[20:58] <bekks> agrester: Provide the requested output please.
[20:58] <agrester> ok, I'll have to do this later when I'm at that machine
[20:59] <agrester> got to run but will be back
[20:59] <teemperor> zymaster: the thing with the doc is quite difficult, the standard unity-confguration looks quite weird with a doc and you still get the dash when you press the super-key etc. I would go for linux-mint and try to install a dock there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynlwMu0NMqI it is the quite the best option, because xubuntu and lubuntu are not as fancy as you may want, and unity/gnome-shell is to bloated for you
[20:59] <Titomen> nibbier: i did what you told me and here is what i get http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_16-48-09_679-6a0JkcFz.jpg  and also http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_16-48-25_464-WRLuMMZ8.jpg..how cna i check now the partition of the drive 3rd drive before i add it again
[20:59] <zymaster> teemperor: ok
[20:59] <zymaster> thanks
[21:00] <bekks> Titomen: Answer my question please.
[21:00] <Cong> nibbier, how do I check it telnetd is running?
[21:02] <krux> ps -ef |grep telnet ? or telnet localhost ?...
[21:02] <smj> is anyone using 12.10 with NVIDIA graphics driveR?
[21:02] <smj> driver.
[21:02] <POVaddct> netstat --inet -an |grep -w 23
[21:02] <bekks> smj: Please keep it in #ubuntu+1 :)
[21:03] <Cong> what is this netstat --inet -an |grep -w 23 command meant to respond with?
[21:03] <POVaddct> Cong: no output if telnetd is not running
[21:04] <Cong> I got no output.
[21:04] <teemperor> zymaster: install linux mint normaly, then remove the bottom bar (i think right-click on it and then something like remove should do this job) and then install cairo-dock or docky or a other dock.
[21:04] <POVaddct> Cong: do you actually want to run telnetd?
[21:04] <zymaster> ok i will take a look at that
[21:04] <Cong> POVaddct, yes.
[21:04] <nibbier> Titomen, its a lost cause, it wont resurrect your md2
[21:04] <bekks> teemperor: zymaster: Mint is not supported in here.
[21:04] <nibbier> Cong, ps waxl|grep telnet
[21:04] <bekks> Titomen: Do you have a backup?
[21:04] <home> who needs Linux Mint support?
[21:05] <bekks> home: No one in here.
[21:05] <kyrix> i have just configured a 3 disk raid5, that is in initial recovery: finish=662.9min speed=66611K/sec is this speed normal/fast/slow?
[21:05] <Cong> I don't know why everyone is so worried. telnet is still in use in homes and other places.
[21:05] <Titomen> bekks: yes i am here
[21:05] <home> bekks: weird, why did you state that then, lol
[21:05] <bekks> kyrix: How big/small are that disks.
[21:05] <POVaddct> Cong: i hope you will use telnet only for logins in your private network. do NOT use telnet over the internet.
[21:05] <home> Titomen: what do you need help with?
[21:05] <bekks> home: Context :)
[21:05] <kyrix> bekks, 3TB.
[21:05] <home> bekks: Internet :)
[21:05] <simplew> i have set /etc/sudoers to NOPASSWD but when starting certain apps like synaptic through the menu it continues asking the root password, how is possible to completly disable the root password call?
[21:05] <bekks> Titomen: Dont listen to "home". Do you have a backup?
[21:05] <bekks> kyrix: Then it is quite normal.
[21:05] <home> simplew: :o
[21:05] <zykotick9> POVaddct: i'd say "do not use telnet." ;)
[21:06] <nibbier> Cong, there is no real reason to use telnet anymore, ssh can do all of telnet plus much more, and its save for free
[21:06] <bekks> simplew: graphical applications do not care about the settings in "/etc/sudoers".
[21:06] <POVaddct> zykotick9: yeah, ssh is more convenient anyway
[21:06] <Cong> Just give me the guide to set up telnetd people.
[21:06] <Titomen> nibbier: bekks: afterr i removed sdc from md0, i reboot and this is what i get now: http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_17-03-03_625-KSJF6Y5r.jpg  no more s
[21:06] <kyrix> bekks, thx.
[21:06] <bekks> Titomen: Answer my question.
[21:07] <simplew> bekks: so how do i completly disable the root password call?
[21:07] <bekks> Titomen: Do you have a backup?
[21:07] <Titomen> bekk: no backup
[21:07] <warren-hill> Cong: netstat lists all active connections and grep -w 23 list the outputs that contain 23.  So this will list all connections to port 23
[21:07] <nibbier> Titomen, congrats, but nothing will fix your md2
[21:07] <teemperor> bekks: srry for that :)
[21:07] <bekks> Titomen: Then you just lost a bunch of unworthy data.
[21:08] <kyrix> bekks, is it safe to write to the array?
[21:08] <Titomen> bekks: but the data is on md3..md2 is system
[21:08] <kyrix> bekks, while rebuilding?
[21:08] <bekks> kyrix: It's slow, but safe. :)
[21:08] <nibbier> Titomen, lucky you! then (providing you have a backup of your data) just reinstall the system
[21:08] <kyrix> bekks, i had an error before but i hope it was unrelated :)
[21:08] <bekks> Titomen: Dont do anything else now: Create a backup.
[21:09] <nibbier> Cong, did you install the telnetd package?
[21:09] <Cong> nibbier, what's this mean? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1280006/
[21:09] <Titomen> how can i do a backup if i am on initrmfs
[21:10] <Cong> nibbier, yes telnetd is installed.
[21:10] <bekks> Titomen: I told you an hour ago: use a livecd.
[21:10] <TJ-> Titomen: Boot from a liveISO on CD or USB; Or boot from Ubuntu installed on a USB
[21:11] <jagginess> Cong, telnet is used by dumb technicians who dont know anything. smart people use ssh
[21:12] <Cong> jagginess, I think you're paranoid.
[21:12] <jagginess> Cong, i think you don't know anything
[21:12] <Titomen> my system is 8.4  i try with a live 12 and it ask me to try or to install..i try but it did not see my raids
[21:12] <nibbier> Cong, that means telnet is not running. and considering your general knowledge i once again want to encourage you to use ssh, sudo apt-get install openssh-server and you are done
[21:12] <bekks> Titomen: Then start a livecd and create a backup of your data.
[21:12] <bekks> Titomen: Do you understand what I am writing to you?
[21:13] <Titomen> bekks: i understand, but i do not know how to do it
[21:13] <Cong> jagginess, I don't know much about telnetd or telnet but that's only because there isn't much information on the web.
[21:13]  * jagginess says ssh is part of osx, and is freely available on linux and even winbloze.. it takes putting one's brain back in 1980's before what the internet is what it is today
[21:14] <jagginess> LOL
[21:14] <nibbier> Cong, which is because its deprecated, old, useless and insecure, why would anyone write about it?
[21:14] <bekks> Titomen: Use a _live_cd_ not an _install_cd_
[21:14] <jagginess> not much information on the web about telnet? you sound like you never heard of wikipedia.
[21:15] <Titomen> nibbier: so the  fact that it is inactive and no S for spare, does not mean i can activate the array..i thoug th e mistake cam from nd0 using the complte 500 gig of the hard drive
[21:15] <Cong> wikipedia, isn't a learning school.
[21:15] <bekks> Titomen: You array is gone. It is damaged too much for ever being reassembled.
[21:15]  * jagginess thinks Cong is trolling. Telnet is so 1980's.
[21:16] <jagginess> ssh or get out!
[21:16] <Cong> I'll never use ssh until I've used telnet.
[21:16] <bekks> LOL
[21:17] <jagginess> maybe he should use dial-up internet and drop cable, to get a sense of slow speed
[21:17] <POVaddct> Cong: can you actually tell us WHY you want to use telnet and not ssh?
[21:17] <nibbier> Titomen, no, if the 2 disks were able with complete knowledge about the data, it would ahve been assembled in degraded mode... but it was not assembled at all
[21:17] <bekks> Cong: Please learn what telnet is all about and why it shouldnt be used.
[21:17] <k1l> oha, schon 11 uhr durch
[21:17] <Fike> hi
[21:18] <Fike> =o
[21:18] <nibbier> jagginess, sadly it isn't.... at least not for switch/router vendors etc
[21:18] <Titomen> nibbier: so after i do the backup..can i do somethign to recreate and install md2-system..or i have toi format everything and start form scratch
[21:18] <jagginess> nibbier, like.. ?
[21:18] <bekks> Titomen: NO.
[21:18] <pankaj_> okie dokie
[21:18] <bekks> Titomen: Your md2 array is DEAD.
[21:18] <nibbier> Titomen, start from scatch. you have a chance of doing this without losing your data partitions, but backups are 100% neccessary for that
[21:18] <TJ-> bekks: This is getting like the famous Monty Python Dead Parrot sketch :p
[21:18] <scant> when i choose "install ubuntu alongside windows 7", it asks me to specify a partition for "Files (3.2 GB)" and "Ubuntu". how much should i allocate for each partition?
[21:19] <POVaddct> can i haz ssh?
[21:19] <bekks> TJ-: Yeah :D
[21:19] <jagginess> nibbier, i work on cisco routers.. the ssh server is built-in and is configurable. Telnet is on as a legacy and is not encouraged (even with cisco exams they ask why ssh is better than telnet)
[21:19] <Titomen> nibbier: thanks..i understand and doing back up, but if i would like yjsut to reinstall system on md2..how can i do that..thanbks and sorry if i am newby and slowluw to follow
[21:20] <nibbier> jagginess, on extreme you need a special license for ssh, and on smaller switches of hp etc there is only telnet. thumbs up for cisco here
[21:20] <scant> do i just need to give 3.2GB for the files and then use all of the remaining space for the other partition?
[21:20] <bekks> Titomen: Start from scratch. Like you did 5 years ago.
[21:20] <bekks> Titomen: You arent a newbie, after 5 years of using a RAID :)
[21:20] <jagginess> nibbier, license? you joking.. using ssh is open
[21:21] <nibbier> jagginess, not in enterprise[tm] hardware... just cause tehre are open implementations does not mean you are not being billed for it ;-)
[21:21] <jagginess> scant, if you choose 'something else' for manual partitioning, you should give ubuntu no less than 7 gigs for "/" and give make a swap partition
[21:22] <kriskropd> OPENSSH is open source, other ssh servers may not be open source, but its quite uncommon
[21:23] <scant> jagginess, i don't see "something else". i'm using 11.10
[21:23] <kriskropd> telnet sends everythign in cleartext, you'll want to be very confident in whatever network you are passing telnet packets over
[21:23] <jagginess> nibbier, point being he's not even close to being a vendor asking for a special ssh-implementation from vandyke.. there's an openssh, the closed ssh you're thinking of is not openssh
[21:23] <nibbier> kriskropd, we are talking about blackbox, proprietary embedded systems, great if openssh is oss, its not like your switches are hooked up to a repository where you can just install stuffs
[21:24] <kriskropd> nibbier, my router runs dd-wrt, so actually yeah I can :) but my hardware needs a JTAG mod first to do it
[21:24] <jagginess> scant, it would be tbe last option on the partitioning mode menu.. if i remember correctly
[21:24] <markovh> is there anything like yumi that will run on ubuntu/linux for creating multiple boot images?
[21:25] <kriskropd> nibbier: but yeah, i wouldnt be surprised if proprietary ssh existed
[21:25] <jagginess> kriskropd, lol
[21:25] <jagginess> kriskropd, for years ..
[21:25] <nibbier> kriskropd, i did never say "no routers support ssh" or anything like that. just that plenty of so called enterprise systems are still using ONLY telnet, while others (extreme networks eg) require a special license to enable ssh. no more no less, and thats a fact.
[21:25] <jagginess> nibbier, and you couldn't name any
[21:25] <kriskropd> jagginess: but clearly you wouldnt configure a router over telnet over an active network XD
[21:26] <zykotick9> kriskropd: openssh is free software from OpenBSD.  so being BSD licenses i guess a closed version could exist (i can't figure out why anyone would pay for a closed source SSH but whatever)
[21:26] <nibbier> jagginess, i can. extreme networks is licensed ssh, small hp switches, plenty of UPS network modules etc support telnet serial only
[21:26] <zak_> where are compilation error messages stored?
[21:26] <nibbier> kriskropd, if you run this kind of hardware you'd of course run a seperated management vlan or such
[21:27] <markovh> zak_: they aren't
[21:27] <kriskropd> zykotick9: i cant imagine why either, but if someone says it happens, hey, i won't argue
[21:27] <nibbier> kriskropd, jagginess: just google "extreme networks ssh license" and find tons of info....
[21:27] <zykotick9> zak_: if you compiling outside software, then check with that software if logs are created (i've never seen a compile log before, but they might be possible)
[21:27] <markovh> zak_: compilation of anything in particular you're talking about?
[21:28] <scant> jagginess, OK i see it, but i have no idea which one is the swap file. they're just numbed /sda whatever
[21:28] <scant> *numbered
[21:28] <jagginess> nibbier, telnet serial? that's a closed circuit wire.. you mean "console" cabling.. yes there are serial-console only links which is what's oftenly used with routing equipment.. case can be either on a local link or a networking link you can have a "telnet" session. The telnet session being referenced largely is over a network segment
[21:29] <nibbier> jagginess, sorry for missing the "and" in between serial and telnet
[21:30] <zak_> markovh: yes iam trying to compile the driver for  0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188CUS 802.11n WLAN, which i downloaded , install kernel source, gcc but still got the error , jold on let me pastebin the error messages
[21:30] <kriskropd> nibbier: im not having luck finding the actual license agreement, but I believed you when you said proprietary forms of ssh existed, i've just never seen or heard of any
[21:30] <Cong> nibbier, my computer is rejecting telnet <IP_ADDRESS>. But when I did telnet localhost it started connecting. What's the problem?
[21:30] <nibbier> cong: use ssh
[21:30] <Cong> nibbier, that's not the problem.
[21:31] <sts23> i installed ubuntu on vmware but the launchbar doesnt display
[21:31] <sts23> there is some display issue. i remember i had it last time i installed it but i forgot how i fixed it
[21:31] <nibbier> kriskropd, i could not find it either, but you find lots of info pointing to that. " Extreme Networks has enhanced its processes regarding SSH licensing" "SSH is now delivered and licensed on a serialized basis with a separate license key required to activate SSH on each Extreme Networks switch" " With <IP_ADDRESS> you have to get a license file to enable SSH, on single nodes ... 2012 Extreme Networks."
[21:31] <jagginess> kriskropd, gimme a break (i already said their name much earlier) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SecureCRT
[21:31] <kriskropd> nibbier: yeah i saw that xD
[21:32] <sts23> anyone?
[21:32] <kriskropd> jagginess: i came in after that I think
[21:32] <TJ-> Cong: That means that the entry in /etc/hosts for "localhost" may not point to <IP_ADDRESS> as it should, and you may therefore be connecting to another host or interface
[21:32] <kriskropd> jagginess: thats a client
[21:32] <zak_> markovh: http://pastie.org/5059018
[21:32] <nibbier> good night
[21:33] <scant> jagginess, i really shouldn't have to do all of this. i just need to know which partition between the two to enlarge
[21:33] <Cong> TJ-, ifconfig says lo is <IP_ADDRESS>.
[21:33] <TJ-> Cong: "lo" is an interface name, not a hostname
[21:33] <jagginess> scant, show a picture or an fdisk -l of the partitions
[21:33] <jagginess> scant, you have what, 2 ntfs partitions? (resize the tail of the 2nd ntfs partition)
[21:33] <zak_> markovh:  am i missing something?
[21:34] <scant> i have a ext4 and an ntfs. the ext4 is labeled "ubuntu"
[21:34] <scant> and the other is labeled "files (3.2 gb)"
[21:34] <mrojas6996> Buenas! necesito una pequeña ayudita por acá
[21:34] <zykotick9> kriskropd: a closed source client isn't nearly as interesting as a closed-soruce implementation of SSH ;)
[21:35] <mrojas6996> Hello! i have a small problem with fstab
[21:35] <scant> jagginess, i would assume i should make the ntfs the larger one, but i have no idea how much space to give for the other one
[21:35] <Cong> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1280057/
[21:36] <jagginess> scant, well i need a topology.. a pic or something to know what you're resizing what/where/how ://.. it's not good to make a mistake here
[21:36] <TJ-> zak_: You are apparently building for OpenSuse, not Ubuntu ( see "/usr/src/linux-3.4.11-2.16-obj" )
[21:36] <oznt> hi everyone, i desperately need help with connection to Citrix client with ubuntu
[21:36] <oznt> does some one have experience with it?
[21:36] <TJ-> Cong: Then something is wrong with your system then, if you can't connect to <IP_ADDRESS> but can to localhost.
[21:37] <mrojas6996> I had 2 SWAP partitions duplicated by accidentally, when i delete the 2nd swap partition, FSTAB show an error with a UUID missing
[21:37] <mrojas6996> that is the 2nd SWAP partition that i delete
[21:37] <scant> jagginess, sorry i got DC'ed. if you posted a reply i didn't see it
[21:38] <TJ-> mrojas6996: Correct the UUID mentioned in fstab, to be the UUID of the remaining swap partition
[21:38] <jagginess> oznt, you should contact citrix, that's quite commercial, this pops up in my google search, perhaps they offer free downloads to legacy stuff if you inherited an out-of-warranty equipment
[21:38]  * zykotick9 thinks using LABELS (can even be applied to swap partitions!) is WAY easier then using UUIDs...
[21:38] <jagginess> oznt, ( http://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-receiver/legacy-client-software/receiver-for-linux-120.html )
[21:39] <jagginess> zykotick9, uuid is still better for that too.. the default installer uses uuid with swap and /
[21:39] <Tdaug> clear
[21:39] <jagginess> scant, well i need a topology.. a pic or something to know what you're resizing what/where/how ://.. it's not good to make a mistake here
[21:39] <mrojas6996> TJ-: Wow thanks for replying so fast :D , but how i know what is the correct UUID to correct?
[21:40] <jagginess> mrojas6996, well you didnt install ubuntu :).. the installer sets the uuid
[21:40] <Tdaug> Is there a way to map "Workspace Switcher" to my Windows key?
[21:40] <zak_> markovh: sorry i was disconnected did you get my pastebin link ?
[21:40] <jagginess> Tdaug, yes
[21:40] <jagginess> Tdaug, problem is there's too many ways to do it :/
[21:40] <Tdaug> jagginess: how?
[21:41] <Tdaug> jagginess:  What's the best way?
[21:41] <jagginess> Tdaug, (there's many references online, you'll have to find the best way :/, it may also depend on other factors if you're succesful or not-- this can be a very long problem if its not succesful at first)
[21:41] <mrojas6996> no no, i have Lubuntu 12.04 installed, but i had a 2nd SWAP partition that i delete with GParted in a LiveCD
[21:42] <jagginess> Tdaug, the best way is anything closest that runs on your current desktop, so if you use gnome, try keyboard settings (i'll find the menu item)
[21:42] <Tdaug> jagginess:  Thanks.  Looks like I've got some googling to do :)
[21:42] <mrojas6996> sorry my english is experimental
[21:44] <mrojas6996> the uuid of the deleted partition with gparted is in my fstab file, an i wanna to know how to update this file for the error diappears
[21:44] <TJ-> mrojas6996: "sudo blkid  /dev/sda5" (if sda5 is the remaining swap partition)
[21:44] <KRomeleoN> somehow my os drive is sdb and my secondary drive is sda, any wayto change that?
[21:45] <mrojas6996> I have Windows 7 with Lubuntu without a dedicated partition of /home
[21:45] <Beastie> Hello all I'm going to snap if I can't figure out how to install this ubuntu power pc
[21:45] <Beastie> It's like everything I do fails
[21:45] <Beastie> I try to boot from cd and then the screen turns white a little file folder pops up
[21:46] <zykotick9> Beastie: i take it you are using old mac hardware?  you do understand what powerpc is right?
[21:46] <zak_> iam trying to compile the driver for  0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188CUS 802.11n WLAN, which i downloaded , install kernel source, gcc but still got the error http://pastie.org/5059018  am i missing something?
[21:46] <Beastie> boot cd:,\install\yaboot can't OPEN cd
[21:46] <gordonjcp> Beastie: are you sure about those backslashes?
[21:46] <gordonjcp> Beastie: that looks wrong
[21:47] <Beastie> boot cd1:,\installyaboot can't OPEN ide0/@1:9,\\:tbxi
[21:47] <Beastie> hang on maybe I'm just dumb
[21:47] <alusion> I want a way to download google images faster, what can I do? Or is there a way to change menu options upon right click?
[21:47] <zykotick9> zak_: don't expect a huge reply.  compiling outside drivers is OT in #ubuntu, does realtek have a support channel?  (PS don't reply to me, i won't see it)
[21:47] <alusion> Also I want to highlight - instant copy
[21:48] <Beastie> NOTHING ever works
[21:48] <Beastie> zykotick9: yes old hardware
[21:48] <infectedorganism> quick question: bored, about to install lubuntu 12.10 beta 2. i know the final is set to be released in a few days, but if I install beta 2, will update manager give me the updates over the next few days to essentially make it 12.10 final?
[21:48] <jagginess> alusion, cant. the webpage can have javascript to prevent doing ctl-c or can change the context menu to disable 'copy image'
[21:48] <Tdaug> jagginess:  Is there a specific command i can map to the windows key which will act as if i clicked the "Workspace switcher" icon in the launcher?
[21:48] <zykotick9> infectedorganism: #ubuntu+1 for any 12.10 questions/discussion
[21:49] <infectedorganism> thanks, zykotick9.
[21:49] <jagginess> Tdaug, yeah.. i was digging about an alternative item here, i'm looking for something
[21:49] <zykotick9> infectedorganism: BUT see "/msg ubottu final"
[21:49] <Beastie> https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/powerpc/ch05s01.html
[21:49] <Beastie> I did exactly what it said to do
[21:49] <jagginess> Tdaug, you may be able to disable the superkey for the menu with the help of gconf-editor (google that), and then use that superkey for something.. you definitely dont want the superkey overimposing doing 2 things at once
[21:49] <kriskropd> zykotick9: //leave
[21:50] <jagginess> Tdaug, (i'm looking to see if there's something better atm-- also for my own use)
[21:50] <Beastie> No matter what powerpc distro I use something ALWAYS fails.
[21:50] <yakster> hi all….. i need some help, prehaps somone is smarter then i…
[21:51] <Beastie> BSD locks during boot at a certain point, openbsd won't boot, debian powerpc does the same as ubuntu
[21:51] <mrojas6996> TJ-: and if I edit the FSTAB file and I delete the line of the inexistent "/dev/sda7", the error fixes?
[21:51] <yakster> doing a lshw -class network , says network is disabled… how do I enable
[21:51] <jagginess> Tdaug, i'll pm you in 15 mins.. (busy at smthing)
[21:51] <jagginess> (but i think the superkey bound to menu can be disabled via gconf-editor)
[21:51] <zykotick9> yakster: is it a portable?  is there a hardware-type switch?
[21:52] <yakster> portable yes, but runniong as a music brains postgre-sql svr, no wireless…
[21:52] <TJ-> mrojas6996: If the fstab refers to the swap partition by device-name, not UUID, you can correct the device name instead of using UUID. If you're unsure, pastebin the entire fstab for me
[21:53] <mrojas6996> ok
[21:54] <mrojas6996> TJ-: this is my FSTAB file http://pastebin.com/itT6Gs5Q
[21:54] <yakster> nm, i was looking for eth0, its eth1
[21:54] <froylan> hi! anyone with kubuntu?
[21:54] <Strav`> Hi! I'm wondering: is there any way to turn off the "more suggestions" in the dash's applications lens?
[21:54] <max731> ciao a tutti
[21:54] <max731> !list
[21:55] <Beastie> ahhh shit!
[21:55] <froylan> what?
[21:55] <Beastie> This powerpc install doesn't work at all.
[21:55] <mrojas6996> my partitions: Extended /dev/sda3 Lubuntu and Home /dev/sda5 the swap: /dev/sda6
[21:56] <Beastie> The mac osx cd boots just fine.
[21:56] <Beastie> But it's old and outdated
[21:56] <jagginess> Tdaug, found it
[21:56] <mrojas6996> the nonexistent partition would be /dev/sda7
[21:56] <jagginess> Tdaug, you there?
[21:57] <TJ-> mrojas6996: OK, thanks. Yes, you can delete the comment and its following line that refers to sda7
[21:57] <froylan> Beastie i have no idea what is happening, any more info?
[21:57] <Tdaug> jagginess:  yep.  right here :)
[21:57] <Beastie> hang on I will explain
[21:57] <mrojas6996> TJ-: Thank you So much! Muchisimas gracias!, me has ayudado enormemente :D
[21:57] <TJ-> mrojas6996: lines beginning "#" are comments. The line that does it is "UUID=bd865ca8-3e96-43ca-8141-26ebccc55fbd ..."
[21:58] <jagginess> Tdaug, (currently seeing on my debian system, pretty sure the ubuntu one is in the same location-- it's systemsettings/Regional and Language, -- chose the 'Layouts' tab-- I've looked at this in ubuntu last week but it may slightly be in a differnt submenu--i'm booting my ubuntu vm)
[21:58] <mrojas6996> TJ-: I delete the comment and the UUID
[21:58] <Beastie> boot cd:,\install\yaboot can't OPEN: cd:,\install\yaboot
[21:58] <mrojas6996> is good?
[21:58] <jagginess> Tdaug, navigate to that
[21:59] <jagginess> Tdaug, systemsettings?
[21:59] <froylan> Beastie ever tried sudo or doing it manually in terminal?
[22:00] <Tdaug> jagginess:  Keyboard layout?  There's no Regional and Language.
[22:00] <Titomen> nibbier: before i do the complete reinstallation, i am trying to understand the rest of options, 1st how can or cani check all the partitions form initramsf
[22:00] <jagginess> Tdaug, there's actually 2 very distant keyboard settings under gnome
[22:00] <Beastie> froylan:  trying what manually?
[22:00] <Beastie> how would I be able to access a terminal?  I'm in open firmware and can't get to anything
[22:00] <Titomen> nibbier: trying to add sdb1 to md0 it says no such directory...i am not talkj g about md2, but md0 or md1 or md3
[22:01] <jagginess> Tdaug, it's not the one with the common keyboard shortcuts
[22:01] <Tdaug> jagginess: where is the other one?
[22:01] <jagginess> Tdaug, i'm going to make a feature request to simplify those two distant settings for the keyboard -- (hopefully you can join me)(i blame the gnome developers, it's not ubuntu's fault)
[22:01] <froylan> i don't know beastie, let me ask my google buddy
[22:02] <Beastie> okie
[22:02] <Tdaug> jagginess:  alright.  but for now, where can I go to do this?
[22:03] <jagginess> Tdaug, systemtools/systemsettings/langsupport ..
[22:04] <jagginess> Tdaug, if you look at 'Keyboard input method system' that can be a factor
[22:05] <jagginess> Tdaug, now i'm not sure, but i'm guessing that if its set to 'none' then the old ways of X (like xmerge and Xresources) would apply with xbindkeys
[22:05] <jagginess> Tdaug, you'd like to avoid doing the old X ways, and instead do the new Gnome ways
[22:05] <Tdaug> jagginess:  it's set to none, and I only have 3 choices.
[22:05] <jagginess> Tdaug, so best bet is stick with anything gnome..
[22:05] <jwaffe> I was wondering if somebody could help me get the grub I installed with ubuntu to recognize my new arch linux partition, I installed Grub on arch linux as specified, but the grub menu doesn't show anything other than ubuntu and my windows partitions.
[22:05] <jagginess> Tdaug, 11.10 or 12.04?
[22:06] <froylan> hmm try using a live CD of linux and simulating boot inside your hard drive, that's all i can think of beastie, sorry i am a noob
[22:06] <Tdaug> jagginess:  12.04
[22:06] <Nine_9> just installed chromium... man! what a pile of sheesh that webstore. too much quantity, almost no quality. most things there are just links. Uninstalled it already :)
[22:06] <zykotick9> jwaffe: try "sudo update-grub" and see if you see arch in the output, if you do, reboot
[22:06] <Beastie> froylan:  thanks man...jeeze this is nuts!   It was using ipv6 but I changed that and now it's fine.
[22:06] <jwaffe> I'll try that zykotick9
[22:07] <Nine_9> the worst thing is that the google search language is defined from the IP and there's no easy way to change that... what a stupidity! So if i'm in china, they assume i speak chinese? dumb browser it is
[22:07] <froylan> Beastie: i think it is hard because you have to basically recreate some scripts
[22:08] <Cong> If you're in China I would naturally thin were Chinese.
[22:08] <Nine_9> it should at least ask before making stupid assumptions.
[22:08] <Tdaug> jagginess:  I can chose, under "Keyboard input method system", either 'none', 'ibus', 'lo-gtk', or 'th-gtk'
[22:08] <sts23> no one can help me out?
[22:08] <jwaffe> @zykotick0 -- it found two linux images so it seems that it would be correct, with different versions of vmlinuz
[22:09] <jwaffe> *@xykotick9
[22:09] <jwaffe> restarting now
[22:10] <jagginess> Tdaug, dude.. also the 'Layout's tab (is different than debian :))-- this is found in Keyboard Layout of that mutiple icon window--- be sure to check the 'Options' button
[22:10] <jwaffe> no luck, xykotick9, it still only shows ubuntu and windows
[22:10] <jagginess> Tdaug, this too
[22:11] <jagginess> Tdaug, do you see the win/alt behaviour item listed?
[22:11] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: use duckduckgo and it doesn't do that
[22:11] <Tdaug> jagginess:  where is the options button?
[22:11] <jagginess> Tdaug, location where the 'language' icon is, there'll be near it, the keyboard layout icon
[22:12] <sts23> the launcher on the left doesnt display properly. it shows black when i hover over it
[22:12] <jwaffe> it could be worth noting that osprober can find the partition
[22:12] <jagginess> Tdaug, (not 'keyboard' but 'keyboard layout' icon-- it would be under the 'Personal' section)
[22:12] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: simple really
[22:12] <Tdaug> jagginess:  yes.  alt/win key is set to default right now.
[22:12] <jagginess> Tdaug, so thre's actually 3 locations for keyboard settings in gnome.. it's sickening confusing..
[22:13] <Nine_9> actionParsnip: duckduckngo seems quite nice
[22:13] <Tdaug> jagginess:  What do I do now?  under "Alt/Win key behavior"?
[22:13] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: its more powerful than google, you can tweak sources and organise by date added etc, no such feature in crappy google
[22:14] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: plus, no bubble and no tracking
[22:14] <jagginess> Tdaug, you may want to ask in #gnome or a mailing list, what to use to make sure it is the gnome desktop setting 100% the behaviour for the superkey
[22:14] <Nine_9> actionParsnip: nice. thank you. I'ma add it in my firefox search bar
[22:14] <Beastie> Well I guess I'll install mac osx panther then try to install a linux distro somehow ???
[22:14] <jagginess> Tdaug, (for that 'keyboard input method system')
[22:14] <jagginess> Tdaug, or you'll have to experiment :/
[22:14] <Tdaug> jagginess:  So, ask in #Gnome?
[22:15] <jagginess> Tdaug, but try to stay away from anything with x resource (old unix ways)
[22:15] <jagginess> Tdaug, yeah.. cuse i dont know and doubt anybody else does :/
[22:15] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: as you use it you'll realise it's power. try:   !ppa firefox     ;)
[22:15] <Tdaug> jagginess:  OK :)
[22:16] <Tdaug> jagginess:  I may need to take up OS hacking to make this work just the way I want it too XD
[22:16] <simplew> in grub /boot/grub/grub.cfg the windows entry has some kind of UUID that is not listed in blkid, can anyone tell me from where it comes?
[22:16] <Nine_9> actionParsnip: wow! amazing! :)
[22:16] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: exactly
[22:16] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: so much power, people just seem to run to google
[22:16] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: lots more bang syntaxes
[22:17] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: tonnes of power
[22:17] <jwaffe> hmm... would it be a good idea to change the OS to boot to default to the arch linux partition to see if it would possibly recognize it then?
[22:17] <simplew> in /boot/grub/grub.cfg in the windows entry i see "  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos1  46621DBF621DB4A1"    but the  46621DBF621DB4A1  is not listed from blkid, can anyone tell me from where it comes?
[22:17] <jwaffe> I guess it couldn't hurt
[22:18] <Nine_9> actionParsnip: google is getting worse. already remove it from my search engines :)
[22:18] <DaemonicApathy> I just experienced some window warping, immediately followed by Windows crashing in a virtual environment. Since it was the virtual container's border that shifted, does an overworked processor make sense as a guess to the cause?
[22:18] <simplew> ups, sorry, its the UUID from the windows boot partition
[22:18] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: you can search google with it using:  !g
[22:18] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: and google images with !gi
[22:18] <k1l> seems like we need #duckduckgo-commercial :)
[22:18] <actionParsnip> Nine_9: also search youtube with !yt    and google maps with !maps   and wikipedia with !wiki
[22:19] <Nine_9> actionParsnip: nice
[22:19] <Juze> ed
[22:19] <jrib> actionParsnip: !i is shorter than !gi :D
[22:19] <gaelan>  Why is it that everytime I try to setup ssh, I get an error message telling me  to setup service(8) instead?
[22:19] <actionParsnip> jrib: ahhh, wasn't ware of that
[22:19] <jwaffe> seemed to be ineffective, "activate a grub2 repository to use this as a grub partition)
[22:19] <actionParsnip> its just better imo
[22:19] <jagginess> Tdaug, are you trying to remap the superkey ? (i'm not sure if you disable the superkey via gconf-editor you'd be able to still map it to something else)
[22:20] <DaemonicApathy> actionParsnip: Where are you talking about entering these searches?
[22:20] <jagginess> Tdaug, you can try things, but if you're stuck on it like a long time, i'd say (dont'! it's not worth it:)
[22:20] <gaelan>  Why is it that everytime I try to setup ssh, I get an error message telling me  to setup service(8) instead?
[22:20] <Tdaug> jagginess:  Yeah.  I wanted to remap it (since I rarely use keyboard shortcuts anyway) to that specific process.
[22:21] <jrib> gaelan: pastebin
[22:21] <zykotick9> jwaffe: if you can't boot arch - i'd try arch's irc channel (see "/msg ubottu alis" for info on searching for channels on freenode)
[22:21] <jwaffe> hmm, ok, thanks
[22:21] <jagginess> Tdaug, remap to what process?
[22:21] <Tdaug> opening the GUI for switching desktops..
[22:22] <jagginess> Tdaug, you mean hitting the winkey alone does something like alt-tab ?
[22:22] <Tdaug> yeah.
[22:23] <_cronus_> jwaffe: try sudo grub-install /dev/sda changing this to fit your drive
[22:24] <gaelan> jrib, "Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)"
[22:24] <gaelan> utility, e.g. service ssh start
[22:24] <gaelan> Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
[22:24] <gaelan> Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start ssh
[22:24] <Tdaug> jagginess:  the little launcher you hit to get to where the screen is divided into 4 desktops.  that's what i wanted Winkey to do.
[22:24] <zykotick9> _cronus_: if jwaffe can boot ubuntu, that's not really the issue... just sayin'
[22:24] <_cronus_> jwaffe: or sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
[22:24] <gaelan> jrib the whole message error log.
[22:25] <jagginess> Tdaug, not sure if that's possible, also i'm not sure if that's part of gnome3 or a unity specific thing
[22:25] <k1l> Tdaug: just press super+s
[22:25] <jagginess> Tdaug, so if it's unity specific then #gnome wouldn't know
[22:25] <k1l> Tdaug: super means the winkey
[22:26] <Tdaug> jagginess:  according to k1l, super+s does what I'm trying to do.
[22:26] <jagginess> Tdaug, (yeah what k1l says), if you see something 'super' in settings, that means the winblozelogokey :)
[22:26] <k1l> Tdaug: why not using super+s?
[22:27] <_cronus_> zykotick9: true, but i understood he wanted ubuntu's bootloader to be able to find another os. could have been windows...
[22:27] <Titomen> i need some guidance...before i do the hard work of reinstalling everything i need to understand why on the md0 i cannot add sdb1..please help http://picpaste.com/2012-10-14_18-23-44_705-hC9Bf3pX.jpg
[22:27] <k1l> Tdaug: binding only super will ruin all the other hotkeys
[22:27] <Tdaug> k1l:  That works.  Thanks! :)
[22:27] <k1l> Tdaug: press the super key long to get a map of the hotkeys
[22:27] <jrib> gaelan: you should use a pastebin (and include what you ran to get the error) so you don't flood the channel.  This channel isn't a pastebin.  What command did you execute?
[22:27] <jagginess> Tdaug, well i have no idea which gnome desktop you were using or what you wanted to remap, but as you can see there's those 3 locations, you can tinker quite alot
[22:28] <zykotick9> _cronus_: they've already run "sudo update-grub" and it doesn't find arch?
[22:28] <k1l> jagginess: the problem is resolved
[22:28] <mollusk> Does anyone know of a good program that would allow me to switch between two different computers with 1 monitor?
[22:28] <Tdaug> jagginess:  Yes.  there's certainly a lot of tinkering to be done with Ubuntu.  Considering i was a windows user just the day before yesterday, it's quite a relief that it's so customizable :)
[22:29] <jagginess> mollusk, you need a hardware kvm switch
[22:29] <_cronus_> zykotick9: i thought it found it
[22:29] <zykotick9> _cronus_: nope.  but i guess osprober does?
[22:29] <jagginess> mollusk, if you have two monitors side-by-side, then synergy works incredibly well (be it win/mac/linux)
[22:30] <_cronus_> zykotick9: osprober is called by update-grub, isn't it?
[22:30] <mollusk> jagginess, I figured I would need a switch of some sort. Oh well, yeah synergy is awesome.
[22:30] <zykotick9> _cronus_: "I" thought so... ;)
[22:30] <mollusk> jagginess, Thanks
[22:30] <jagginess> mollusk, if you're not doing video editing stuff on one computer, then access it remotely
[22:30] <jagginess> mollusk, you can remote desktop windows or linux these days from either Os
[22:31] <jagginess> mollusk, the problem with kvm switches is that they don't always work with all keyboard/mice
[22:31] <_cronus_> zykotick9: but AFAIK update-grub doesn't install the bootloader
[22:32] <k1l> _cronus_: it doesnt insatll
[22:32] <zykotick9> _cronus_: it DOESN'T install it, only updates it
[22:32] <k1l> it only updates the config files
[22:32] <jagginess> mollusk, also, you might get a ghosting effect if you use one with the kvm vga extension cable -- so this is trial and error
[22:32] <k1l> that is why its called update and not install :)
[22:33] <mollusk> jagginess, I will probably just use teamviewer .
[22:33] <CrawfordComeaux> I want to upgrade a 10.04 LTS VM to precise, but when I try it on a test VM, grub always gets mucked up and I wind up in grub rescue (which no grub rescue guides have helped get me past). Any suggestions either on how to preserve grub in the upgrade or recover?
[22:33] <zykotick9> _cronus_: sorry you said "doesn't" my bad
[22:33] <jagginess> mollusk, that would likely be slower :)
[22:34] <mollusk> jagginess, Not slower than some of the vnc tools I have used but I suppose since this will be a local ip I will get less delay out of a local standard vnc connection.
[22:35] <mollusk> jagginess, teamviewer will have to route through to internet and back if I am not mistaken
[22:35] <zykotick9> CrawfordComeaux: i've seen many people complaining about going from 10.04->12.04 be SURE you know what your getting into before you start.  best of luck.
[22:36] <deb> hi, it seems like firefox takes ages opening pages with htpps protocol, but also other pages... help?
[22:36] <jagginess> mollusk, probably.. i read some of them take a shortcut route if you're not going an internet connection
[22:36] <Titomen> any help
[22:36] <CrawfordComeaux> complaining about the process or some issue they have w/12.04 afterward?
[22:37] <jagginess> mollusk, www.nomachine.com/select-package.php?os=linux&id=1
[22:37] <deb> i run ff16 on ubuntu 10.04 and firefox takes ages opening https protocolled pages and also others? ideas? help^
[22:39]  * jagginess :)
[22:39] <zykotick9> deb: if firefox16 offered from default 10.04 repos?
[22:39] <zykotick9> deb: s/if/is/
[22:39] <deb> in the backports
[22:39] <zykotick9> deb: nice.  well good luck - i got NOTHING
[22:40] <ubuntu_2> jakis polak ?

[22:41] <Lockscreen> how to speak of myself in third person like some guys do? ex: * Lockscreen is doing smthng
[22:41] <sdollins> Is it possible to download 12.10 RC?
[22:41] <k1l> sdollins: there is no RC. use a daily if you want one iso
[22:41] <zykotick9> Lockscreen: "/me foo" but don't use it too much ;)
[22:41] <OerHeks> sdollins, no, there is no RC, just the Beta 2
[22:41] <k1l> Lockscreen: use /me , but dont use this channel for testing :)
[22:42] <sdollins> Well that explains why I couldn't find it. :)
[22:42] <Lockscreen> thanks
[22:43] <[1001]> I am trying to get my Ruby on Rails application working and installing RMagic gem. But I get an error that says "Can't install RMagick 2.13.1.

[22:43] <cherry> anyone know a fast way to copy an SD card to another SD card in Ubuntu?
[22:44] <jagginess> cherry, yeah
[22:44] <jagginess> cherry, make your new partition on the target with gparted live cd.. then use copy and paste with the gparted live cd :)
[22:44] <jagginess> cherry, (it's that simple)
[22:45] <zykotick9> cherry: "sudo cp -rv /path/to/sd1 /path/to/sd2" but don't expect fast with SD cards (that are probably connected to USB)
[22:45] <jagginess> cherry, dont need to use dd or any dump cli commands
[22:45] <cherry> that simple ha
[22:45] <cherry> ok, I have a demo tomorrow and I have to copy this SD card on to 3 other SD cards
[22:45] <cherry> here goes.
[22:45] <jagginess> cherry, yeah.. so lets say your sd source partition is ext4.. then simply make your new ext4 partition on your new card.. (I'm hoping they're both mounted at the same time?)
[22:45] <sahu> sahu
[22:45] <jagginess> cherry, if not, then i can tell you how to mount a loopback image
[22:46] <nsahoo> I can't seem to get any audio from my pci sound card. The onboard sound works fine.
[22:46] <cherry> I only have one SD card drive
[22:46] <sts23> http://i.imgur.com/C5HJv.png after i log in
[22:46] <jagginess> cherry, ok
[22:46] <sts23> how do i fix it?
[22:46] <nsahoo> how can I troubleshoot?
[22:46] <zykotick9> cherry: so first copy teh origional SD card to you HD, then "image" from there.
[22:47] <cherry> right give me a moment.
[22:47] <jagginess> cherry, so use a ubuntu desktop, make a raw image use -> cat /dev/<SDCARD>   >  ~/mysdcard.bin    (and pm me, i can easily tell you how to mount the parition within the image)
[22:47] <sahu> i bought samsung printer ML2161 but it runs on windows driver now i use
[22:47] <cherry> ok, let me do a raw image first
[22:47] <cherry> to be on the safe side
[22:48] <sahu> how to install printer driver
[22:48] <cherry> jagginess,
[22:48] <jagginess> cherry, ok
[22:48] <cherry> the issue is there are two drives on the SD card
[22:48] <jagginess> cherry, and not the partition, but the whole sd card drive
[22:48] <cherry> two partitions rather
[22:49] <jagginess> cherry, do the whole drive, unless you know what the other partition is
[22:49] <jagginess> cherry, what are the two partitions ?
[22:49] <cherry> they are both under /dev
[22:49] <cherry> one labelled sdb1
[22:49] <jagginess> cherry, ???
[22:49] <cherry> the other sdb2
[22:49] <jagginess> cherry, you sound uncertain, just cat the whole drive
[22:50] <OerHeks> sahu, samsung is good supported, my samsung 1650 works out of the box
[22:50] <cherry> I am uncertain, don't want to lose the data :-)
[22:50] <jagginess> cherry, cat /dev/sdb > ~/mysdcard.bin
[22:50] <overclucker> cherry: dd if=/dev/sdb of=sdcard.img
[22:50] <jagginess> overclucker, that'll be slow, he'll have to include bigger bs= sizes etc..
[22:51] <sts23> ?
[22:52] <cherry> doing raw copies now
[22:52] <cherry> problem is I now have two partitions
[22:52] <OerHeks> sahu, see driver section >> http://www.samsung.com/in/support/model/ML-2161/XIP-downloads# Linux 4.00.35 Print Driver 2011.10.19 MULTI LANGUAGE 43.5 MB
[22:52] <cherry> how do I get these to appear on the new SD card
[22:52] <cherry> rather overwriting the previous image
[22:53] <ibere_fernandes> quit
[22:53] <jagginess> cherry, pm me
[22:53] <cherry> sure
[22:53] <cherry> sec
[22:53] <FlyingElvis> does xscreensavers still work for ubuntu with unity?
[22:53] <nsahoo> any help? I am getting no sound from the pci sound card
[22:54] <nsahoo> How do I begin to troubleshoot
[22:54] <jagginess> !sound
[22:55] <elb0w> Friend is having a problem getting 3 monitors to work. One is onboard and two are from nvidia card
[22:55] <elb0w> Any tips?
[22:55] <erkan^> is ubuntu 12.10 release on 18th October?
[22:56] <FlyingElvis> yes
[22:56] <KM0201> october sometime.
[22:56] <KM0201> those release dates always get pushed back.
[22:56] <zykotick9> nsahoo: i'd start by opening alsamixer from terminal, verify nothing is muted, or turned all the way down.  use F6 to change sound cards.
[22:56] <actionParsnip> erkan^: ask in #ubuntu+1
[22:56] <erkan^> i know it now, actionParsnip  :p
[22:56] <zykotick9> !schedule
[22:58] <erkan^> thank you, zykotick9 :)
[23:01] <zykotick9> KM0201: fyi, ubuntu is on a strict release schedule.  i believe only 1 release was delayed significantly.
[23:01] <zykotick9> KM0201: that produced a non-04or10 number ;)
[23:02] <KM0201> zykotick9: yeah.. i've saw release "dates" get pushed back before though...
[23:02] <KM0201> zykotick9: that would be 6.06 probably.. :)
[23:02] <KM0201> they still always hit in the right month though, i was just saying it's quite possible it could be released after the 18th.
[23:02] <zykotick9> KM0201: in the 3-4 years i used ubuntu, i never saw a late release
[23:03] <KM0201> i thought 11.04 got pushed back a few days, as did 11.10... i could be wrong though
[23:03] <OerHeks> I saw once, that the image was rejected and came 6 hrs later
[23:03] <zykotick9> OerHeks: lol 6hrs is NOT late ;)
[23:03] <OerHeks> True, not days.
[23:04] <k1l> its not released at 0:01 at 18th but in the late afternoon. but its nothing compared to the delays in other big projects
[23:04] <zykotick9> k1l: other projects has quality control issues - ubuntu typically doesn't
[23:06] <BluntMasta>  i tried to install cmake via "sudo apt-get install cmake" and it gave me this error
[23:06] <BluntMasta> : Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (2: No such file or directory)
[23:06] <BluntMasta> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[23:06] <BluntMasta> ?
[23:07] <zykotick9> BluntMasta: are you sure you used sudo?  that error seems to say you didn't.
[23:07] <OerHeks> Do you have softwarecentre open too, BluntMasta ?
[23:07] <zykotick9> OerHeks: you're right "could not lock"  my bad.
[23:08] <BluntMasta> i am running,
[23:08] <BluntMasta> ubuntu
[23:08] <BluntMasta> vps
[23:08] <BluntMasta> unrealircd,
[23:08] <BluntMasta> and anope-1.9.7
[23:09] <zykotick9> BluntMasta: see "/msg ubottu pm".  yes i'm one of "those" people that consider PMs rude without checking first.  best of luck with your issue, don't reply to me - i won't see it.
[23:10] <pudish> Hello, world!
[23:10] <zykotick9> pudish: bad start ;)  see "/msg ubottu ask" and look for a private message from ubuntu, about forming questions.  best of luck!
[23:11] <zykotick9> s/ubuntu/ubottu/
[23:11] <Biomechd> so i installed blender from the "irie" ppa and now i can't open it. any ideas?
[23:11] <Biomechd> also, it might be worth saying that the application filename is blender-bin+svn#####
[23:12] <k1l> Biomechd: best try is to ask the ppa guys what they did wrong
[23:12] <zykotick9> Biomechd: good luck.  BUT techincally PPAs aren't supported here (they shouldn't be considered stable/or even working...)
[23:12] <BluntMasta> zykotick9
[23:12] <BluntMasta> what to perform first
[23:12] <Biomechd> so where do i go for the guys who handle ppas?
[23:13] <creede> Biomechd, try running your app under strace (e.g. strace blender) to see if you get any coherent error messages about why it won't work. Warning: You'll get a LOT of messages.
[23:13] <zykotick9> Biomechd: look on the launchpad/ppa page.  i doubt you'll find much/any support.
[23:13] <Biomechd> zykotick9, i was hoping they'd have an irc channel that i could go to while i'm here.
[23:14] <zykotick9> Biomechd: read "/msg ubottu ppa" for confirmation on what i'm saying.  USE at your own risk.
[23:14] <BluntMasta> what do i do
[23:14] <BluntMasta> then
[23:14] <BluntMasta> ?
[23:14] <k1l> Biomechd: look at the launchpad page where you got that link from and take a look if they have a own page or if the maintainers put an irc nick into their profile
[23:15] <OerHeks> Do you have softwarecentre open too, BluntMasta ?
[23:15] <BluntMasta> whats that?
[23:16] <BluntMasta> this is a help room

[23:21] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: the application people can use to install apps
[23:21] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: do you use that?
[23:21] <Biomechd> blunt, the software center (centre in british english) is the GUI way of installing programs to ubuntu.
[23:21] <BluntMasta> i dont know the page
[23:21] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: its not a page, its a program
[23:22] <BluntMasta> im in putty
[23:22] <k1l> he is on a vserver
[23:22] <BluntMasta> on my vps
[23:22] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: yes but on the system you can use software centre
[23:22] <BluntMasta> ok telll me how to fix this error
[23:22] <BluntMasta> please,
[23:22] <k1l> BluntMasta: try "apt-get install cmake"
[23:23] <BluntMasta> root@vps:/# apt-get install cmake
[23:23] <BluntMasta> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (2: No such file or directory)
[23:23] <zykotick9> Biomechd: really?  even in canada i'm familiar with center, that's funny...  oh god, i'm slightly americanized</ot>
[23:23] <BluntMasta> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[23:23] <BluntMasta> root@vps:/#
[23:23] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: please use a pastebin for multiple lines
[23:23] <BluntMasta> did u see error
[23:23] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;dpkg --configure -a
[23:23] <Biomechd> zykotick9, i think canada has some regions using british english and other regions using american english.
[23:24] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: yes I saw THE error, but use a pastebin in future
[23:24] <BluntMasta> http://pastebin.com/W69NCrK8
[23:24] <BluntMasta> ^^
[23:24] <zykotick9> Biomechd: officially - british (or french in quebec) </really OT>
[23:24] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: or run:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock; sudo dpkg --configure -a
[23:25] <BluntMasta> please tell me what it dose
[23:25] <BluntMasta> k?
[23:25] <Fudge> hi, wondering if anyone is aware of broadcom issues for precise, I have two machines with bcm and all I get is the password prompt then wireless disconnects, does not happen on non broadcom hardware
[23:25] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: it frees up the packages by ending the process accessing the packages. Why do you care? It fixes you issue
[23:25] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: k?
[23:25] <BluntMasta> k
[23:25] <mgodzilla> i got some 'home' movies that are in mpeg4 format...what app is recommended for dvd conversion/playback?
[23:25] <mgodzilla> mplayer?
[23:26] <BluntMasta> actionParsnip:
[23:26] <BluntMasta> http://pastebin.com/y8CzEU8P
[23:26] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: why do you want an explanation. It fixes your issue. Do you REALLY want to know the exact thing it does and so forth?
[23:26] <sudokode> mgodzilla: ffmpeg for conversion, mplayer for playback
[23:26] <BluntMasta> http://pastebin.com/y8CzEU8P
[23:26] <OerHeks> mgodzilla, ffmpeg can convert, with winFF as a gui
[23:26] <mgodzilla> thanks guys :)
[23:27]  * zykotick9 believe ffmpeg might be deprecated for something else (that's in ubuntu repos)
[23:27] <sudokode> if you want a gui for video transcoding, use handbrake
[23:27] <zykotick9> sudokode: wrong direction!
[23:27] <mgodzilla> hmm...
[23:27] <sudokode> zykotick9: ?
[23:28] <BluntMasta> actionParsnip: whats next mate?
[23:28] <zykotick9> sudokode: they want mp4->dvd, not the other way round.
[23:28] <sudokode> oic. handbrake will do that
[23:28] <zykotick9> sudokode: really?
[23:28] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: sudo cp /var/lib/dpkg/status-old /var/lib/dpkg/status
[23:29] <BluntMasta> k
[23:29] <BluntMasta> cp: cannot stat `/var/lib/dpkg/status-old': No such file or directory
[23:29] <BluntMasta> ^^
[23:29] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: VPSes have a reputation for maessing with Ubuntu OSes and making them nearly unusable
[23:30] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: *mssing
[23:30] <BluntMasta> k?
[23:30] <sudokode> oh, it only converts dvds to something else
[23:30] <zykotick9> sudokode: i have no MPEG2 output options in my handbrake?  YMMV?
[23:30] <box1> I can't get crontab to run stuff when I use */10 on the first row... it's suppose to run every 10 minutes but it doesn't
[23:30] <box1> the commands work fine when paste from crontab inside the command terminal and ran
[23:31] <zykotick9> sudokode: ;)
[23:31] <BluntMasta> actionParsnip: ?
[23:31] <box1> right now I'm testing if 0,10,20,30,40,50 will work
[23:31] <sudokode> box1: what are you trying to run
[23:31] <box1> a script
[23:31] <jrib> box1: "a script" is too vague.
[23:31] <box1> for all intents and purpose just imagine it echos hello world
[23:31] <box1> the script isn't the problem
[23:31] <gionny999> ciao a tutti
[23:31] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: thats just a punctuation mark, it needs to be prefixed with a sentance to be of any value
[23:31] <jrib> box1: it probably is
[23:32] <sudokode> box1: could you post the exact line
[23:32] <gionny999> !list
[23:32] <BluntMasta> what do you mean?
[23:32] <box1> 0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * *        /var/www/stats/pisg --silent
[23:32] <sudokode> first column is seconds
[23:32] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: you said "(00:31:14) BluntMasta: actionParsnip: ?"   which isn't anything at all, it's nonsensical
[23:33] <sudokode> oh no it's not
[23:33] <BluntMasta> how to fix my error?
[23:33] <sudokode> wait. god, I never remember cron's syntax
[23:33] <jrib> box1: note that this pisg script won't have the same environment that you have in your shell when you execute it manually (for example PATH will differ)
[23:33] <sudokode> yeah, minutes. ignore that
[23:33] <box1> jrib: why does it work when I paste /var/www/stats/pisg --select in the terminal
[23:33] <box1> from any directory
[23:33] <jrib> box1: see what I just wrote
[23:34] <box1> why won't it have that?
[23:34] <box1> I change nothing in PATH
[23:34] <jrib> box1: also, "select" is not the same as "silent"
[23:34] <box1> right I meant silent
[23:34] <zykotick9> box1: cron has a very limited environment, compared to your regular login.
[23:35] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: wget https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/fixpackage; chmod +x ./fixpage; sudo ./fixpackage
[23:35] <box1> that's all very interesting
[23:35] <box1> so wtf do I do about it
[23:35] <BluntMasta> actionParsnip
[23:35] <BluntMasta> may i pm you
[23:35] <BluntMasta> ?
[23:35] <jrib> box1: because that's how cron works.  Your jobs aren't run in the same environment your user has after a login.  You should probably get rid of the --silent and redirect stdout and stderr somewhere.  You'll probably have a better idea of the issue
[23:35] <actionParsnip> BluntMasta: ask in here, more eyes =more support
[23:35] <BluntMasta> k
[23:36] <BluntMasta> what exactly is the wget for
[23:36] <BluntMasta> ??
[23:36] <box1> what is the command to run parts
[23:36] <box1> for execute cron to run i forget
[23:36] <sudokode> BluntMasta: man wget
[23:36] <mgodzilla> BluntMasta, quite a handle.
[23:36] <mgodzilla> XD
[23:37] <BluntMasta> actionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/i0N0mDG5

[23:41] <k1l> BluntMasta: the command from actionParsnip had a typo in it, which i corrected
[23:41] <WeThePeople> lelouch, if you have tried diff, browsers and it is still a problem then uninstall flash and instead install ubuntu-restricted-extras in the soft center
[23:42] <k1l> BluntMasta: all information is given, scroll up and read again
[23:42] <BluntMasta> chmod +x ./fixpackage; sudo ./fixpackage

[23:44] <BluntMasta> ^^
[23:44] <zykotick9> alusion_: you say it's "frozen" yet you can type commands?  can you reboot the system?
[23:44] <k1l> BluntMasta: remove the sudo and give it a try
[23:45] <BluntMasta> so i have to rm -rf the old one
[23:45] <k1l> BluntMasta: no
[23:45] <ahmedipa> alusion_: yes I can by press on the power
[23:45] <k1l> just remove the sudo from the commands and try again
