[00:00] <Bonzo> I believe it was wpa
[00:00] <Bonzo> not there now, just trying to get this working before I go back =p
[00:00] <akkku> hmm, wpa or wpa2?
[00:00] <Bonzo> if I can make it work in the VMware I'm good with that.
[00:00] <akkku> coz with wpa2 u can only brute force afaik
[00:00] <Bonzo> just wap
[00:00] <Bonzo> wpa
[00:00] <akkku> so your f***ed
[00:00] <akkku> wpa u can crack
[00:01] <akkku> try cain
[00:01] <daftykins> keep it family friendly thanks guys
[00:01] <akkku> i dunno there are so many distros now...
[00:01] <akkku> hey daftykins what distro are u on?
[00:01] <Bonzo> Maybe we should go create a channel to find help where no one else is. Maybe that would be productive daftykins ?
[00:02] <akkku> :-D
[00:02] <Bonzo> I mean, thats what he suggested I do.  I have like 20 minutes
[00:06] <akkku> status update
[00:06] <akkku> :-)
[00:06] <Bonzo> looking at caine =p
[00:06] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: that can depend on far too many factors to answer reliably
[00:06] <CrazyM4n> On a high end gaming computer
[00:07] <Bonzo> have a favorite multibootloader you like to use?
[00:07] <CrazyM4n> With 2 SSDs to format
[00:07] <ashley01> I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask my question, because it involves both Ubuntu 14.04 and a game called OpenTTD (but the question is not about gameplay, it is performance related)
[00:07] <Wulframn> CrazyM4n: depends, but twenty to thirty minutes sounds about right in my experience.
[00:07] <rafase282> I tried file base but some directories were the same other than the case sensitive and I had to check often and some wouldnt copy
[00:07] <CrazyM4n> Sounds ok
[00:07] <Bonzo> I've used so many without luck in the last day
[00:07] <CrazyM4n> Welp, here goes nothing
[00:07] <Wulframn> CrazyM4n: How big are the drives?
[00:07] <CrazyM4n> 256 GB each
[00:07] <akkku> hey u sure your wifi supports promisc mode?
[00:07] <Bonzo> no?
[00:08] <CrazyM4n> Just doing the one last look over
[00:08] <akkku> whats the chipset?
[00:08] <CrazyM4n> Making sure I didn´t forget to back anything up
[00:08] <akkku> lspci?
[00:08] <Wulframn> CrazyM4n: I can't tell you for sure, but I'd gamble on at least thirty minutes.
[00:08] <akkku> coz many do not
[00:08] <akkku> most of them
[00:08] <CrazyM4n> Any good streaming software on ubuntu?
[00:09] <akkku> youporn.com
[00:09] <CrazyM4n> Like, for twitch.tv
[00:09] <CrazyM4n> lol
[00:09] <Bonzo> You know I'm not even sure
[00:09] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: just browse the software centre once you get there
[00:09] <akkku> yeah u need promisc or your fucked
[00:09] <Wulframn> !gtfo | akkku
[00:09] <akkku> OMG
[00:09] <Bonzo> what is promisc?
[00:09] <akkku> keep getting warnings
[00:10] <akkku> promisciôus ode
[00:10] <akkku> mode
[00:10] <Bonzo> oh
[00:10] <akkku> like to listen
[00:10] <Bonzo> yeah gotcha
[00:10] <akkku> need full access on the interface
[00:10] <CrazyM4n> Is all that pulseaudio buisness sorted out?
[00:10] <akkku> and most shitty realtek do not
[00:10] <Wulframn> akkku: please calm yourself and stay on topic.
[00:10] <daftykins> Wulframn: careful, those two consider themselves above the rules.
[00:11] <akkku> ?
[00:11] <Wulframn> daftykins: is that the color of it tonight? Who is the other?
[00:11] <akkku> we're talking about realtek mr blockwart
[00:11] <CrazyM4n> Well, I´m actually shutting down my computer to switch to ubuntu now. I´m actually pretty nervous
[00:11] <CrazyM4n> Tally-ho!
[00:12] <akkku> no need to panic
[00:12] <Wulframn> He'll be fine.
[00:12] <akkku> yo bonzo whats up?
[00:12] <akkku> :-D
[00:12] <akkku> got it working?
[00:13] <Bonzo> Is talking about other people subjectively and in general trying to hinder their ability to reach a common goal also against the rules?
[00:13] <Bonzo> If so you are in total violation daftykins
[00:14] <ashley01> I have a problem with OpenTTD: when I expand the window: my performance starts to drop, especially at fullscreen. I have a Radeon 7950.
[00:14] <Wulframn> Bonzo: please remain on topic.
[00:14] <ashley01> I hope this is the right place to get help. I am using Ubuntu 14.04
[00:14] <Wulframn> ashley01: this is the correct location.
[00:14] <Bonzo> I'm trying to find my wireless card atm in bios...I think I'm gonna have to boot up windows to find it first.
[00:15] <akkku> u did lspci and nothing?
[00:15] <akkku> is it usb or pci?
[00:15] <Bonzo> pci
[00:15] <akkku> lscpi -vv?
[00:15] <Bonzo> and haven't done that yet, gotta get back to vmware =p
[00:15] <akkku> pfff
[00:15] <akkku> vmware
[00:15] <akkku> fuck it
[00:16] <Wulframn> !language | akkku
[00:16] <akkku> SORRRYYYY
[00:16] <akkku> normal it language :-)
[00:17] <ashley01> Wulframn: Can you help me with my problem at all?
[00:17] <akkku> i dont like vmware
[00:17] <akkku> i dont live oracle
[00:17] <Wulframn> !ask | ashley01
[00:17] <akkku> i dont like anything
[00:17] <ashley01> Wulframn: I did ask it, I dont know if you noticed though
[00:17] <Bonzo> grumpy cat
[00:17] <Bonzo> at anyrate
[00:17] <Wulframn> ashley01: One moment while I scroll up
[00:18] <Bonzo> I typed iscpi in terminal, doesn't recognize the cmmd
[00:18] <akkku> who is ashley?
[00:18] <Wulframn> ashley01: which driver are you using?
[00:18] <akkku> Bonzo: lspci -vv
[00:18] <akkku> then copy/paste in here
[00:18] <daftykins> ashley01: you might as well repeat it, i didn't see it either
[00:18] <ashley01> I have a problem with OpenTTD: when I expand the window my performance starts to drop significantly.
[00:19] <Bonzo> here lazy bum ashley01> I have a problem with OpenTTD: when I expand the window: my performance starts to drop, especially at fullscreen.  (I'm on my phone now)
[00:24] <ashley01> X.org X server
[00:24] <ashley01> I don't know what that means at all
[00:25] <daftykins> it should mention something about radeon, fglrx...
[00:25] <ashley01> daftykins: it gives me 3 options, according to this I am using the open source option
[00:25] <ashley01> it does say AMD/ATI display driver wrapper (they all do)
[00:25] <ashley01> oh wait, they all don't say that
[00:26] <ashley01> but they say something similar to that
[00:26] <akkku> Bonzo: I'm in urgent need of some useless smalltalk:
[00:26] <akkku> Where are u from?
[00:26] <Bonzo> sorry daughter distracting
[00:26] <Bonzo> Indianapolis
[00:26] <akkku> how old is she?
[00:26] <Bonzo> 6
[00:26] <akkku> fuck mine is 3
[00:27] <akkku> lucky man!
[00:27] <ashley01> I am using the driver from xserver-xorg-video-ati, the other 2 (proprietary) are from fglrx and fglrx-updates
[00:27] <Bonzo> lol I wish she was still 3
[00:27] <akkku> wtf????
[00:27] <akkku> super tiring at 3
[00:27] <Bonzo> true
[00:27] <Bonzo> but then you have to deal with real issues
[00:27] <Bonzo> lol
[00:27] <akkku> LOL
[00:27] <akkku> welll wait 10years
[00:28] <akkku> then we laugh
[00:28] <Bonzo> =)
[00:28] <daftykins> ashley01: yep, so you can give either of the other two a go and see how you get on.
[00:28] <Bonzo> you were wanting to know what chipset my wlan card was right?
[00:29] <ashley01> daftykins: do people often recommend the proprietary drivers over open source? I would have thought it would be better the other way around
[00:29] <rredd4> Bono askku just wait till they are teenagers. Enjoy them while they are young
[00:29] <akkku> So status checl: IRC Nazis any news? :-)
[00:29] <rredd4> I have a teen
[00:29] <CrazyM4n> Just to be 100% certain: Ubuntu works well with formatting SSDs correct?
[00:29] <CrazyM4n> I just don't want to screw anything over too bad ;)
[00:30] <akkku> yes
[00:30] <akkku> no alignment needed anymore
[00:30] <akkku> time are over
[00:30] <Bonzo> really? omg very nice lol
[00:30] <akkku> FU
[00:31] <daftykins> ashley01: when graphics card companies don't work with developers on Linux, the cards tend to perform better with proprietary drivers.
[00:31] <ashley01> fair enough, I'll try out the proprietary ones
[00:31] <Bonzo> that lspci cmd gave me like pages of crap
[00:31] <akkku> hen graphics card companies don't work with developers on Linux, the cards tend to perform better with proprietary drivers.
[00:31] <akkku> ???????
[00:32] <akkku> daftykins: what do u mean?
[00:32] <ashley01> akkku, he was responding to me
[00:32] <akkku> i apologise
[00:32] <ashley01> you are forgiven my child
[00:32] <CrazyM4n> So if I tell it to replace windows 7 with ubuntu
[00:33] <CrazyM4n> Will it install on the correct drive
[00:33] <CrazyM4n> Where win7 used to be?
[00:33] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: use 'something else' to do it manually if you're not sure
[00:34] <ashley01> CrazyM4n, you should get an option to install it alongside your current OS (1st option), an option to install it over and use up the whole drive (2nd option), and an option to do it all manually (3rd option)
[00:34] <ashley01> you get this with Ubuntu 14.04
[00:34] <CrazyM4n> I did the second
[00:35] <ashley01> same as me, I only use Ubuntu these days and I love it!
[00:35] <ashley01> minus the adware/spyware
[00:35] <akkku> when its raining outside, the headphones are loud...
[00:36] <daftykins> there... isn't adware or spyware.
[00:36] <ashley01> I might use Debian one day when I get 'good' enough at using this
[00:36] <ashley01> sorry daftykins, but I don't like how they included the amazon stuff
[00:36] <daftykins> it can be turned off
[00:37] <ashley01> I know, i did the whole fixubuntu.com script
[00:37] <ashley01> and disabled the online searching
[00:37] <CrazyM4n> That was weird, I agree
[00:37] <CrazyM4n> Why did they add bloatware?
[00:37] <daftykins> yeah, weird choices, maybe they get funding from it. no idea.
[00:37] <ashley01> I suppose I shouldn't call it adware/spyware
[00:37] <Bonzo> $$$
[00:37] <daftykins> ashley01: it is inaccurate
[00:37] <ashley01> maybe it is best I call it bloatware
[00:37] <ashley01> or "uninstall-ware"
[00:38] <ashley01> practice your uninstalling skills!
[00:38] <daftykins> i'd call it an undesirable feature
[00:38] <ashley01> but I love the OS nonetheless, I don't use windows anymore
[00:38] <rredd4> Don'tWant-ware
[00:38] <ashley01> rredd4 knows what it's all about
[00:39] <rredd4> I do not like win doze.
[00:39] <akkku> nor do i
[00:39] <ashley01> btw daftkykins, thanks for helping me out (I don't know if this will work yet because it is taking a very long time to apply these new gpu drivers)
[00:39] <akkku> no prob
[00:39] <ashley01> does this channel have some sort of reputation system where I can give you a point or something?
[00:39] <guest28798> The computer is not with me atm but I need a soln I can use when I get in front of it again. I have an HP Pavillion dv6000 (circa 2007) that I would like to install ubuntu 14 on.
[00:39] <guest28798> This --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/20112/synaptics-touchpad-problem-when-disabling-it-and-then-enabling-it <-- describes the problem somewhat (for me neither the touchpad nor the mouse work beginning at the screen where you choose to try or to install ubuntu).
[00:39] <guest28798> The soln shown at that link pertains to an earlier release of ubuntu and things have now moved to gsettings I hear. Can someone provide a soln that will work for ubuntu 14?
[00:39] <guest28798> sorry so much
[00:40] <akkku> bonzoooo tio estas ahi?
[00:41] <guest28798> I'm hoping that I can use a usb keyboard to get some input to do the install and to perform whatever soln needs be done to fix the problem.
[00:41] <daftykins> ashley01: nah, i survive on the warm fuzzy feelings alone. but for that you have to let me know the result! :)
[00:41] <Bonzo> check pm akkku
[00:41] <ashley01> I will let you know, gonna be afk but I will stay in the channel while this installs
[00:42] <CrazyM4n> Ubuntu feels like a cult
[00:42] <CrazyM4n> It's funny
[00:42] <daftykins> i can't think how you'd get that idea, but this channel isn't for your ideas to be shared, CrazyM4n
[00:42] <CrazyM4n> Well
[00:42] <CrazyM4n> I was going to get to a point
[00:43] <CrazyM4n> And that is is that it's nice that there is so many resources that are specific to Ubuntu
[00:49] <trip_> has anyone successfully run AMD and Nvidia video cards at the same time? The drivers seem to be stepping all over each other
[00:49] <daftykins> i would not even consider it worthy of an attempt :)
[00:50] <daftykins> trip_: from what i understand they are far too conflicting, why are you trying?
[00:51] <trip_> i have extra cards, figured it would be an interesting experiment. Didn't realize how frustrating it would be
[00:51] <daftykins> yeah, don't waste your time i'd say
[00:52] <trip_> thx
[00:53]  * HastaLavista is now away - Reason : Auto-Away after 1 minutes
[00:54] <daftykins> HastaLavista: please disable that auto away message in this channel
[00:55] <HastaLavista> daftykins : why?
[00:55] <daftykins> because it's annoying
[00:56] <guest28798> Is there anyone here that can show me how to install ubuntu 14 on an hp dv6 from 2007? Neither the keyboard nor the mouse work starting right at the installation
[00:58] <WodgeyD> hi everybody. Can anyone help me with DRBL question please?
[01:00] <guest28798> I have to go eat - back in 30 or 40 min
[01:02] <owen1> how to tell ubuntu not to start a service on boot (using the terminal)?
[01:02] <owen1> (mongodb/postgres etc)
[01:04] <ashley01> daftykins: unfortunately I am still getting the performance drop when I expand the OpenTTD window
[01:04] <CrazyM4n> 2 questions: How can I make my mouse sensitivity lower than the lowest
[01:05] <CrazyM4n> And 2: Why is dragging windows so laggy? Do I have to switch to KDE already? :P
[01:05] <ashley01> there are 2 proprietary drivers available for my radeon 7950: fglrx and fglrx-updates. I am using the former of the two.
[01:06] <ashley01> I am also using Unity, but I like this desktop manager and want to stick with it.
[01:06] <daftykins> ashley01: likely the composited desktop is hindering the performance.
[01:07] <CrazyM4n> Okay, so I'll get a new WM
[01:07] <daftykins> ashley01: you can install and run "glxgears" as a very basic performance metric to gauge between the drivers
[01:07] <CrazyM4n> err, you're not talking to me, lol
[01:07] <daftykins> the names give it away
[01:07] <daftykins> ashley01: run it now, try the fglrx-updates and run it with that driver, then you could also revert and compare with 'radeon'
[01:07] <CrazyM4n> How can I change the sound settings? I haven't used ubuntu in like a year :c
[01:08] <CrazyM4n> found them
[01:08] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: what's your graphics card?
[01:08] <CrazyM4n> It's some nvidia card
[01:08] <ashley01> I will install the mesa-utils package (includes glxgears) and try it out
[01:08] <CrazyM4n> GTX 650 Ti I think
[01:08] <CrazyM4n> Where do I get the drivers?
[01:09] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: additional drivers
[01:09] <daftykins> ashley01: you can help CrazyM4n find the place? ;)
[01:09] <CrazyM4n> lol
[01:10] <CrazyM4n> got it
[01:10] <CrazyM4n> seirously though, how do I make the mouse sensitivity lower
[01:11] <CrazyM4n> is there a console command that I can stick in the x init file?
[01:11] <CrazyM4n> err
[01:11] <CrazyM4n> terminal, or whatever you call it
[01:11] <ashley01> oddly enough, glxgears isn't showing a significant change in FPS when I run OpenTTD in fullscreen, yet I can see the game is going slower than usual and mouse movement also slows down when the window is active
[01:11] <daftykins> ashley01: no the idea is just to run it in each of the drivers and compare the framerate it spits out
[01:12] <daftykins> not run the game at the same time
[01:12] <Aldryk> After one of the regular updates to my 14.04 ubuntu, my session would no longer start. Anyone here might have run by the same problem?
[01:12] <CrazyM4n> http://askubuntu.com/questions/8506/decrease-mouse-sensitivity-below-the-standard-limit found it
[01:12] <ashley01> oh ok, I am getting approx 300 FPS with the proprietary drivers
[01:12] <ashley01> oops
[01:12] <ashley01> not 300 FPS
[01:12] <ashley01> 300 in 5 seconds
[01:12] <ashley01> 60 FPS
[01:12] <daftykins> sounds like vsync
[01:15] <ashley01> I am looking for an option to disable vsync in OpenTTD, it looks like it doesn't have one though
[01:15] <ashley01> what is the name of that bot in this channel that suggests channels?
[01:16] <bitraten3> hi, how can i list all installed packages, which are not in main?
[01:16] <daftykins> ashley01: it's not a bot in the channel, it's a network thing
[01:16] <daftykins> !alis
[01:16] <daftykins> ashley01: again, vsync won't affect your game, it'll affect glxgear's result
[01:16] <ashley01> oh ok
[01:17] <daftykins> vertical sync is preventing the graphics card from pushing out more frames per second than your display's refresh rate
[01:17] <daftykins> e.g. 60Hz on an LCD = 60 frames per second, when vsync is on
[01:17] <ashley01> understood
[01:17] <CrazyM4n> Where is the x.org file?
[01:18] <daftykins> xorg.conf? it hasn't been used in years
[01:18] <daftykins> what are you trying to achieve?
[01:18] <CrazyM4n> Really?
[01:18] <CrazyM4n> It hasn't?
[01:18] <CrazyM4n> Because that's what I always used to use
[01:18] <daftykins> yeah, everythings auto detect now
[01:18] <CrazyM4n> I just want to make my mouse slow down through a command on startup
[01:18] <ashley01> only 1 person in #openttd :(
[01:18] <ashley01> probably afk as well
[01:18] <CrazyM4n> Is there an sh script I can put that in?
[01:19] <ashley01> oops, ##openttd i mean, not sure why it has  2 #
[01:19] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: you linked to the guide to do your mouse adjustment yourself, it tells all
[01:19] <owen1> is 'sudo update-rc.d -f mysql remove' the recommended way to stop a service from starting on boot?
[01:19] <daftykins> ashley01: that means it's unofficial
[01:19] <CrazyM4n> It doesn't say where to put it
[01:19] <CrazyM4n> Other than xorg.conf
[01:19] <daftykins> owen1: sounds right
[01:19] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: i see the full path on the page :)
[01:20] <owen1> daftykins: thanks
[01:20] <thoonai> heyho, some tip which actual compact digital camera I can use as webcam?
[01:20] <CrazyM4n> Me too, but I still don't know why we don't use xorg.conf anymore?
[01:20] <daftykins> pro tip - don't do new things with Linux if it's late night your time
[01:20] <daftykins> thoonai: i'd be genuinely surprised if ANY camera can work like that
[01:20] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: argh, because everything is auto detect as i just said!
[01:20] <owen1> daftykins: and how do i check what services are suppose to start on boot?
[01:21] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: you can still create one, just don't try and put in any graphics driver settings etc.
[01:21] <daftykins> owen1: no idea.
[01:21] <CrazyM4n> daftykins: oh. it's too late for linux. and it's only 6
[01:21] <owen1> daftykins: np. thanks
[01:22] <CrazyM4n> argh the case-sensitive directories
[01:22] <cellopin> hi guys, how can I add this using the software sources? http://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ghc
[01:22] <cellopin> I'm not sure about the format of the ppa
[01:23] <Rohan7> tst rock
[01:23] <Rohan7> Morning peoples!
[01:24] <CrazyM4n> xorg.conf isn't what I want... I just want a sh file that runs on startup
[01:24] <CrazyM4n> Is that too much to ask? D:
[01:24] <daftykins> CrazyM4n: it is when you're not clear about what you're after
[01:24] <daftykins> !ppa | cellopin
[01:24] <cellopin> nvm, its on #Adding this PPA to your system section :)
[01:24] <CrazyM4n> Literally just that
[01:25] <daftykins> cellopin: heh ;)
[01:25] <CrazyM4n> I want to run xinput --set-prop 8 "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 5 on startup
[01:25] <CrazyM4n> What's the easiest way to do that?
[01:25] <ashley01> I have just noticed the Ubuntu Software Centre has an older version of OpenTTD
[01:26] <ashley01> this might be the problem, might.
[01:26] <_unreal_> ppa's at your own risk, hehe sounds like a CIG warning. hehe
[01:26] <daftykins> i don't have an answer for you, but there's nothing wrong with that xorg.conf method
[01:26] <_unreal_> ashley01, it does or your computer does?
[01:26] <cellopin> !addppa
[01:26] <daftykins> ashley01: sincerely doubt it
[01:27] <pavlos> CrazyM4n, add it to /etc/rc.local
[01:27] <damccull> when i boot the usb drive to the installer or the 'try' option, i get a white rectangle in the top left of the screen and nothing else. it's about half the width and a third the height. how can i get past this?
[01:27] <CrazyM4n> pavlos: thank you
[01:27] <daftykins> !nomodeset | damccull
[01:27] <damccull> where at daftykins?
[01:27] <ashley01> I have version 1.3.3 from USC. The OpenTTD website has version 1.4.3 for Ubuntu 14.04
[01:27] <_unreal_> ashley01, when is the last time you did a: sudo apt-get update                    sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:27] <damccull> thanks reading
[01:28] <ashley01> ubuntu updates automatically for me
[01:28] <ashley01> I've never done a manual update
[01:28] <_unreal_> try try
[01:28] <ashley01> ok
[01:28] <mynaras> hello
[01:28] <daftykins> damccull: what are you asking?
[01:28] <_unreal_> what is the worced that could happen? you keep your computer current LOL
[01:28] <_unreal_> worse
[01:28] <MagicSpud> hello do this work? : http://askubuntu.com/questions/16700/how-can-i-change-my-own-user-id
[01:29] <daftykins> *worst
[01:29] <MagicSpud> hey daftykins hello
[01:29] <Rohan7> I like to help people from time to time.  They listened and i like them all. But why did i have to do that ? ...  But I am running sudo apt-get install update anyway
[01:29] <pavlos> damccull, etc/default/grub
[01:30] <ashley01> oops
[01:30] <ashley01> sudo apt-get update, i mean
[01:30] <damccull> haha nomodeset works. thanks
[01:30] <damccull> well so far
[01:30] <ashley01> i need to run "sudo apt-get upgrade" as well?
[01:30] <daftykins> damccull: you'll likely need to resolve graphics drivers once you install
[01:30] <daftykins> ashley01: yes
[01:30] <daftykins> ashley01: i actually prefer "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[01:30] <_unreal_> ashley01, yes: sudo apt-get update             then     sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:30] <ashley01> ok
[01:30] <damccull> ok now i have a bunch of U with a ^ over it covering the whole screen
[01:31] <ashley01> all done
[01:31] <ashley01> yup, USC still has version 1.3.3
[01:31] <ashley01> an old version
[01:32] <Rohan7> Be well my friends. Because well, i Like Linux and i enjoy not beeing angry at all. Its so sweet.
[01:33] <ashley01> so I am guessing that to install OpenTTD 1.4.3 I have to do it from firefox because the ubuntu repository has 1.3.3?
[01:33] <daftykins> ashley01: updating a game is highly unlikely to have any impact on improving the performance with an old graphics card, in my opinion
[01:33] <ashley01> my graphics card isn't old
[01:33] <daftykins> a 7xxx series is old, yes
[01:33] <ashley01> i will get you a link
[01:34] <daftykins> i don't need one :)
[01:34] <ashley01> http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/product_index.aspx?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1157&pid=1439&psn=000101&lid=1
[01:34] <ashley01> I did build this rig 3 years ago
[01:34] <damccull> how do i fix the problem where after the boot splash my whole screen is covered with a U under a ^ repeated across the screen?
[01:34] <ashley01> but that card is still high end
[01:34] <Rohan7> I dont like people hitting eachother, but this MMA is somewhat cool from time to time. But... i think its not cool from time to time... get me on that i hope.
[01:35] <daftykins> ashley01: eh, it's old in hardware enthusiast terms anyway. but ok, not THAT old :P
[01:36] <ashley01> then again, I don't keep up with the latest hardware anymore
[01:36] <ashley01> I have no idea about new CPUs, GPUs, etc
[01:36] <daftykins> ashley01: anywho, AMD was a bad choice for Linux
[01:37] <ashley01> this was originally built for windows 7, but if I ever upgrade I will get nvidia
[01:37] <ashley01> but this rig will last plenty more years, I built it to last
[01:37] <Rohan7> AMD was no more a choise for Linux as intel was. Both companies wants to win and both did.
[01:37] <ashley01> i've only had 1 failed HDD so far
[01:38] <ashley01> i did go about overkill with 1050W PSU
[01:38] <ashley01> that is one thing i wont waste money on again
[01:38] <Rohan7> ashley01: i had to change my hd's every year when peole liked to download my software..
[01:38] <ashley01> if the PSU pops, everything else pops with it, so I made sure that I was never using close to 100% capacity
[01:38] <ashley01> what have you made rohan7?
[01:38] <thoonai> daftykins: sorry my battery exited
[01:39] <Rohan7> It got expensive
[01:39] <daftykins> that's not how bad PSUs fail ;) but hardware is off topic really.
[01:39] <Aldryk> Can someone help me get unity working again? I enter my password, it is accepted, but the unity panel doesn't load, and I can't continue.
[01:39] <ashley01> daftykins, I have been told this before
[01:39] <daftykins> Rohan7: no general chat in here thanks
[01:39] <Rohan7> ashley01: gadmintools
[01:39] <thoonai> daftykins: yup, there are some cameras which are able to work as such, but I dont find actual working stuff atm
[01:39] <ashley01> I did make sure it was 80+ silver standard too
[01:39] <Rohan7> Im doing alot of things
[01:39] <ashley01> i think it also had 7 year warranty
[01:40] <daftykins> as i said, off the hardware chat thanks
[01:40] <ashley01> sorry
[01:40] <thoonai> ?
[01:40] <Rohan7> We cant meet ?
[01:41] <Rohan7> Or chat. Well, total dukage is at hand
[01:41] <iskren> Hello, I'm using netboot.tar.gz but want to swap out the kernel. Unfortunatelly I can't figure out how to build initramfs, that is for installer.
[01:42] <Rohan7> Hi nighty. Ill be cool.
[01:42] <iskren> the modules=netboot just changes the modules preloaded, not the structure of the initramfs which is everything the installer has
[01:42] <IamTrying> yum install openssl-devel pcre-devel - What is those two package name in Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 please?
[01:42] <Davy_Crockett> Oi!
[01:42] <thoonai> Davy_Crockett: Oy!
[01:42] <Rohan7> I only have 50,000 plus megabits. Nothing to be worried about ;)
[01:43] <daftykins> IamTrying: run "apt-get update" then "apt-cache search x" to search for 'x' so you can locate them yourself
[01:43] <daftykins> !ot | Rohan7
[01:43] <Rohan7> Plus i Like Linux peoples. Youre the best. Keep it up brothers and sisters!
[01:44] <thoonai> still searching for cameras, which I can use as webcam
[01:44] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: @ the login -> key combo crl+alt+F1 for a console, what returns from -> ls -al .Xauthority , ls -al .ICEauthority <- ?
[01:44] <Rohan7> thoonai: uvc driver cams are the best...
[01:45] <IamTryin_> got disconnected: daftykins: there are many openssl and pcre which one is almost the one i used in CentOS/RHEL? yum install openssl-devel pcre-devel
[01:45] <thoonai> Rohan7: is there a list of actual cameras which support this?
[01:46] <IamTryin_> apt-cache search openssl or pcre gives lots of result but not exactly saying if its openssl-devel or pcre-devel like with yum
[01:46] <ashley01> daftykins: when I want to remove software with "apt-get remove", is there any baggage left or should it remove all sub-software and anything (e.g. libs) that only this particular software relied on?
[01:46] <Rohan7> Hmm, ive got to bash Theo on the RSA Crap... my gowd they just made interactivity impossible
[01:46] <daftykins> IamTrying: i am not a CentOS user, you're on your own i'm afraid.
[01:46] <Rohan7> Hideous evils .... Its all over the net
[01:47] <daftykins> Rohan7: stop ranting please, i've warned you
[01:47] <daftykins> ashley01: you can "apt-get purge" or "apt-get remove --purge" but beware this make remove any settings you made to the program
[01:48] <Rohan7> daftykins: Yes, ill talk to Theo instead. Im sorry for my ranting? .. be well my friend.
[01:48] <Pinkamena_D> a long time ago I mistakenly installed a package which seems to make the login screen look like it is for a touch device
[01:48] <IamTryin_> Can anyone please tell me which one is the one like CentOS pcre-devel from this list of apt-cache http://paste.ubuntu.com/8489689/
[01:49] <Pinkamena_D> it is all grey, another style. Everything still works when you log in
[01:49] <Pinkamena_D> does anyone know what package this was so I can uninstall it?
[01:49] <Rohan7> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u0OTDk0sCQ
[01:50] <daftykins> !find pcre-devel
[01:51] <ashley01> just testing:
[01:51] <daftykins> Pinkamena_D: try checking your apt history.log
[01:51] <ashley01> !find openttd
[01:51] <ashley01> oh nice command :D
[01:51] <daftykins> !info openttd
[01:51] <Pinkamena_D> its possible, but iirc it was sometime early 2013
[01:51] <daftykins> ashley01: yeah when you're playing though, private message the bot.
[01:51] <ashley01> oh sorry mate
[01:51] <Rohan7> ! Find ThoraxReg. Meine name Ist Thor.
[01:51] <daftykins> so sick of trolls tonight
[01:52] <daftykins> Rohan7: get a life
[01:52] <Rohan7> Dont worry daft one. we need to adjust the worlds.
[01:52] <Rohan7> Ok ?
[01:52] <IamTryin_> i did: apt-get install libpcre3  and then $ root@s:/var/tmp/haproxy-1.5.4# make TARGET=linux2628 USE_PCRE=1 USE_OPENSSL=1 USE_ZLIB=1 USE_CRYPT_H=1 USE_LIBCRYPT=1
[01:52] <IamTryin_> is it ok?
[01:53] <guest28798> Ok, lets try a different approach...  Perhaps someone can give at least a clue or a hint that I can use to figure the problem out myself...
[01:53] <cassio> =]
[01:53] <IamTryin_> USE_PCRE=1 should use libpcre3 right?
[01:53] <Pinkamena_D> here
[01:53] <Pinkamena_D> it looks like this except it says ubuntu instead of fedora : http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/GDM_Fedora_20.png/330px-GDM_Fedora_20.png
[01:53] <guest28798> In ubuntu 14, what is responsible for the keyboard and mouse on a laptop? Would that be in gsettings?
[01:54] <guest28798> At least if I figure it out myself I'll go post the soln so then we'll all have one for the current release of ubuntu
[01:54] <Pinkamena_D> does anyone know what that style / thing is called?
[01:55] <Rohan7> My Linux wimen say that you are correct plus they like you. // >Sweden
[01:55] <daftykins> Pinkamena_D: soundsd like you changed your login manager if that's what you mean
[01:55] <ashley01> daftykins: USC is failing to install this .deb file (latest version of OpenTTD), is there another way I can try to install it?
[01:56] <daftykins> ashley01: is it a .deb for ubuntu?
[01:56] <Pinkamena_D> yes I guppose so
[01:56] <Pinkamena_D> =P
[01:56] <ashley01> yes, it said on the OpenTTD website it was for Ubuntu Trust 14.04
[01:56] <ashley01> Trusty*
[01:56] <Rohan7> http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PL00123528F04EF188&v=GIL46a6T09A
[01:56] <Pinkamena_D> can I get the regular type back?
[01:56] <daftykins> ashley01: and what's supposed to be going wrong? what does it say?
[01:56] <IamTryin_> !find openssl-devel
[01:57] <IamTryin_> stupid boot, its libssl-dev
[01:57] <IamTryin_> !find pcre-devel
[01:57] <Rohan7> !i will smack Theo de rat if he doesnt like to interface...
[01:57] <IamTryin_> stupid boot, its pcre-devel  memorise it
[01:57] <ashley01> daftykins: "the installation or removal of a software package has failed"  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8489728/
[01:58] <Rohan7> ubottu: Sizzy ;)
[01:59] <daftykins> ashley01: sudo apt-get remove --purge openttd*
[01:59] <daftykins> ashley01: then try the download again
[01:59] <guest28798> still don't care I guess eh? 1612 is a lot of people to either not know or not care
[01:59] <ashley01> ok
[02:00] <ashley01> why did you include the asterisk?
[02:00] <xangua> !Patience | guest28798
[02:00] <Aldryk> Bashing-Om: Sorry, was away. Both .Xauthority and .ICEauthority are owned by my user and have mode 600
[02:01] <ashley01> it has successfully installed, thanks for that :D
[02:01] <daftykins> np
[02:01] <daftykins> you understand what went wrong?
[02:02] <Bashing-om> ald
[02:02] <daftykins> the * was to match all packages beginning openttd
[02:02] <ashley01> oh like a wildcard
[02:02] <ashley01> i see yes
[02:02] <Rohan7> @Vikingblood - The purest of all the lovely peoples. But we think that youre cute too.
[02:03] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Well, that is proper .. whow owns the /home <user> directory ? -> ls -al /home <- ?
[02:03] <ashley01> oh dear, openttd 1.4.3 has the same problem
[02:03] <ashley01> so this could definitely be due to poor drivers?
[02:04] <daftykins> ashley01: yep, graphics drivers and  running unity at the same time as trying to play a game imo
[02:05] <daftykins> ashley01: does the game not go full-full screen?
[02:05] <Rohan7> And as the king of all of our worlds id like to say the following: Be onto you as you have been onto them.
[02:05] <ashley01> it does
[02:05] <ashley01> ive tried maximising but not fullscreen
[02:05] <ashley01> i'll see if there is any difference, but i imagine it is just as slow as maximised
[02:06] <ashley01> once it has finished downloading music and sound files
[02:06] <Aldryk> Bashing-Om: Me
[02:07] <ashley01> Does Unity have an option to run it in a mode that is not heavy on using resources? That might work
[02:07] <Rohan7> Many of you are geniouses as i see it. Let us see what you can really do.
[02:07] <Rohan7> Present a target..
[02:08] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Humm .. then what results -> sudo service lightdm start <- ?
[02:08] <Rohan7> We are always with you.
[02:09] <Rohan7> .nl ... i cracked your game in under 3 minutes .. hack something... boored us.
[02:09] <Aldryk> I restarted it, which logged my user out and got me back to the login screen.
[02:09] <Aldryk> Same problem though.
[02:10] <Rohan7> But i like .nl peoples. They are generally very strict and cool
[02:10] <Rohan7> (Rigel7)
[02:10] <Rohan7> Be well, wimen and children alike ;)
[02:12] <Rohan7> So, is it ok if 7'th adjust the mordor retrospectively ?
[02:13] <daftykins> Rohan7: quit
[02:13] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Sorry, Geting above my skill set now . Maybe install 'dconf' and reset unity/compiz ???
[02:13] <Rohan7> Over land and sea, to valhalla ... Please be nice mr daft... No negativity.
[02:14] <Aldryk> Bashing-Om: I tried running dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
[02:15] <Rohan7> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVvXKzT8G_Q
[02:16] <Rohan7> Its not bad in any way. Listen and like.
[02:16] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Good, and -> unity --reset-icons <- ?
[02:16] <Basketball> How can i cast a dvd and volume from linux pc to my chromecast
[02:16] <Rohan7> 28'th ... AC DC... oh itll be so sweet :)
[02:17] <Aldryk> plugin opengl doesn't load..
[02:17] <Rohan7> Basketball: Run the url here and we will check it out
[02:17] <Basketball> Rohan7, what url?
[02:18] <daftykins> Basketball: pretty sure it's unsupported.
[02:18] <Rohan7> Basketball: Show us the url to what you wish to show
[02:19] <Basketball> Rohan7, it is a dvd
[02:19] <daftykins> Basketball: ignore the troll
[02:19] <Basketball> daftykins, why am i a troll?
[02:19] <mynaras> hello
[02:19] <Rohan7> Basketball: ffmpeg stream it across the internet ?
[02:19] <daftykins> Bashing-om: no Rohan7 is, lol seriously.
[02:19] <tommyfun> what movie?
[02:20] <mynaras> I seem to have messed up unity a bit. When I maximize a window on one monitor, it moves to my other monitor
[02:20] <mynaras> any idea how to fix that?
[02:20] <tommyfun> which monitor is the primary?
[02:21] <mynaras> The primary monitor is where the windows leave. It maximizes to a secondary monitor
[02:22] <tommyfun> I assume yer using Unity?
[02:22] <mynaras> Yeah
[02:22] <Rohan7> Naah, im ... well... am i :) ... well i dont like booring, but atleast i try to be sweet but all i get usually is "I love you darling" and then the girl has to go home in the morning...  Gary, nominated for oscars and stuff. He seems somewhat ok to me. This trump person, who is this ?
[02:28] <Rohan7> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30jWhjsdPnM
[02:30] <Rohan7> We dont like religiongs if they cause wars. But i guess thats just us Swedes, the ones who invented wars i guess :)
[02:30] <Rohan7> religions
[02:32] <Aldryk> Bashing-Om: Actually, I think its not unity. I seem to remember I had the same problem a couple of months ago, and it also prevented me to login to Gnome
[02:32] <Rohan7> Aldryk: Why is GNOME beeing so badly compiled on Ubuntu ?
[02:34] <Rohan7> If i start 'MC' ill expect MCedit to fire up but it doesnt. They seem to be doing that in a bad way and we may have to discard the people in that regard even tough we have some national things going on.
[02:34] <Aldryk> I have no idea Rohan7, I'm just trying to get my system to work again :/
[02:35] <Aldryk> I'm almost considering moving to Windows. gah.
[02:35] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: IF you start a terminal from grub, wht results when you start lightdm .. assuming lightdm is the DM ?
[02:35] <Rohan7> Aldryk: Coolest thing youve said all day long, but i love you :)
[02:36] <Aldryk> Bashing-Om: How do I start the terminal from grub?
[02:36] <Rohan7> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T4lzDUxNlk
[02:36] <daftykins> !recovery | Aldryk
[02:37] <Rohan7> Aldryk: if youre on grub you anready have a terminal to play with... tabcompletion and all
[02:37] <Aldryk> Rohan7: Thanks, we all love you too. If my system works again, I'll be pouring love all over the place.
[02:37] <Rohan7> already
[02:37] <Aldryk> royalaxe: It boots alright, I'm using it. Just the desktop manager won't start.
[02:37] <royalaxe> really? thats great :)
[02:37] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Boot to the grub menu, 'e' key for edit mode, arrow down and across to "quiet splash" and replace these terms with the term "text", ctl+x to continue the boot process.
[02:38] <ashley01> I think I see why USC has an older version of OpenTTD: I can't get music to work on the latest version, even if I do "timidity -iAD -Os"
[02:38] <Aldryk> Ok, though that means I should probably logon to IRC from some other machine..
[02:39] <Rohan7> I like everyone i chat with. I may try to teach you somethings but my intent is always Utmost good.
[02:40] <Rohan7> PS: i never destroy things mostly.. ;)
[02:41] <Rohan7> !Rethinalcore, ! Adjacent, !Nice
[02:41] <Rohan7> Xerxez
[02:42] <Rohan7> Xerox, we love you all :)
[02:42] <ashley01> this is such a mess
[02:43] <Rohan7> ashley01: Dont think, just love :)
[02:43] <washuu> Mya everybody
[02:43] <ashley01> how is a newer version of a software package having more problems? it doesn't make sense to me
[02:44] <daftykins> well it's not official.
[02:44] <Rohan7> Kahlua Washuu.
[02:44] <ashley01> you're right - it's an outsider
[02:44] <daftykins> just 'cause there's a package doesn't mean anyones tested it with ubuntu, they've just gone "oh hey this'll install"
[02:44] <ashley01> fair enough
[02:45] <Rohan7> Oriah... GIT here...
[02:45] <ashley01> I'll go back to the old cannonical-seal-of-approval version
[02:45] <ashley01> and see if I can solve this graphical problem in some way
[02:45] <washuu> Rohan-kun
[02:45] <ashley01> ive posted on #ati but it doesn't seem to be very active
[02:45] <ashley01> waiting for an answer since that is the channel for fglrx (proprietary ati drivers)
[02:46] <Rohan7> washuu: Perikles Ot et It Etoh..
[02:46] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: ok, booting ubuntu to grub
[02:46] <daftykins> ashley01: tried fglrx-updates yet?
[02:46] <ashley01> OH
[02:46] <ashley01> i forgot about that
[02:46] <ashley01> i will try in a moment
[02:46] <daftykins> make it so.
[02:46] <Rohan7> !
[02:47] <washuu> perijles the Greek? This is fir Linux );
[02:47] <Rohan7> Try to me nice to eachother now ya hear!
[02:47] <Rohan7> Or we will have to snak you good :)
[02:48] <CrazyM4n> So, I may have accidentally replaced most of my packages with 32 bit versions
[02:48] <CrazyM4n> What do I do to get the old ones back? I haven't removed them with autoremove yet
[02:48] <washuu> I try to be nice and I'm sorry for my typos
[02:49] <Rohan7> washuu: do you also like tigers and cats ?
[02:49] <Rohan7> We like those
[02:50] <washuu> I like cats. I preger them to dogs. Dogs suck!
[02:50] <Rohan7> !We love you too
[02:50] <washuu> *prefer
[02:50] <ashley01> i've got even bigger problems than i thought
[02:50] <ashley01> the music is no longer working on the old supported version
[02:51] <daftykins> is that to do with that change you made?
[02:51] <ashley01> no, havent gone the gpu driver change yet
[02:51] <Rohan7> washuu: I like you washuu.  We dont like those.
[02:51] <ashley01> i purged openttd 1.4.3
[02:51] <ashley01> reinstalled 1.3.3
[02:52] <RustyShackleford> is there a way to make alt+tab behave normally?
[02:52] <washuu> dissing asses? Not so joyfuf...
[02:52] <RustyShackleford> I'd rather not have to alt+grave to switch between instances of the same program
[02:52] <Rohan7> 0xDEADB33F ill always be there for you as well.  Meanwhile we will be known as "Swedes" :)
[02:54] <washuu> I have no no
[02:54] <tommyfun> You’re crazy, man.  but you’d probably not notice the difference
[02:54] <ashley01> I already have timidity installed (for playing MIDI files), but still no luck
[02:54] <Rohan7> we dont like injustices
[02:55] <washuu> problems with my OS in the moment
[02:55] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Once I'm in the grub command line, how do I get a terminal again?
[02:55] <washuu> CTRL-F/ helps

[03:02] <Guest76560> thanks :)
[03:03] <RustyShackleford> so I installed unity-tweak-tool. Apparantly the setting I need to set is "Flip through windows in the switcher"
[03:04] <Rohan7> All over the worlds: I like them all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJJ_zOeYV5s
[03:04] <RustyShackleford> For some reason I can't set it to Alt+tab
[03:04] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: earlier did you -> sudo apt-get install dconf-tools <- to rest unity ?
[03:04] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: yes
[03:04] <ashley01> RustyShackleford: isn't it set to Alt+Tab by default?
[03:05] <Rohan7> Thats from Bersica Italy. Very good showdown
[03:05] <RustyShackleford> ashley01, nope. The default is "Start switcher"
[03:05] <RustyShackleford> I'm trying to set this up so that alt+tab will switch between instances of the same program too
[03:05] <ashley01> oh I see what you mean now
[03:05] <ashley01> mine is disabled too, but I can switch between windows
[03:06] <ashley01> do you have Alt+Tab for start switcher? that works for me
[03:07] <ashley01> oh sorry
[03:07] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: And when you try to start lightdm from terminal, there are no errors reported ? to give us a hint of what the problem is ?
[03:07] <ashley01> re-read your replies
[03:07] <RustyShackleford> ashley01, yep. I tried disabling that, and I still can't set "flip through windows in the switcher"
[03:08] <tommyfun> RustyShackleford: what’s the output of echo $DESKTOP_SESSION
[03:08] <ashley01> RustyShackleford: just found this http://askubuntu.com/questions/168265/how-do-i-disable-or-change-the-alt-shortcut-to-switch-between-multiple-win . It claims there is a big in compiz that causes this.
[03:08] <ashley01> oh that is for Ubuntu 12.04, my bad. Not sure if it will still work
[03:09] <RustyShackleford> yeah I saw that and thought the same thing
[03:09] <RustyShackleford> i guess I could try it
[03:09] <RustyShackleford> tommyfun, "ubuntu"
[03:10] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: ok, running it with -d, it seems like it starts the session and it quits immediately
[03:10] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Err, no, that was the greeter
[03:11] <Rohan7> Swedes are the ones who invented intercontinental trade. We where also Vikings long before some others thought it was cool to say they where in fact the coolest peoples on earth ... We all know that my ancestors where ;)
[03:11] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: I do not know, but, might try (RE-)installing the desk top ?
[03:12] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Already reinstalled ubuntu-desktop
[03:12] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: And unity..
[03:12] <phunyguy> Rohan7: it would be really great if you could stick to support in here.
[03:12] <Rohan7> What does it mean when your toe, next to the big toe is equal in length ? ... Youre a roman. And i like it
[03:13] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: I am all out of ideas ... Anyone else ??
[03:14] <daftykins> phunyguy: ty sir
[03:14] <daftykins> that was driving me spare.
[03:14] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Thanks, no worries, it certainly ran me out of ideas.
[03:15] <Aldryk> I think last time I "fixed" that but reverting to earlier versions of some packages.
[03:15] <RustyShackleford> well i screwed around with compiz's settings
[03:15] <RustyShackleford> now it will ONLY switch between instances of a single program
[03:17] <RustyShackleford> i suppose I can get used to the default way haha
[03:17] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: One can always check the condition of package management -> sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade , sudo apt-get -f install , sudo dpkg -C < - looking for errors.
[03:17] <RustyShackleford> or pick a new DE. I dunno
[03:20] <prime2_> test
[03:20] <cbdj> Seen
[03:20] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Actually, update of the packages is what got me into this trouble in the first place :/
[03:21] <Aldryk> Thats whats so annoying. Its the newest version of Intel Graphics drivers or newest opengl or something.
[03:22] <trelane> how do I disable dhcpv6?  Its ignoring the option in network config
[03:22] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Well, updating will not get ya into trouble, but what you installed might ! .. Run the commands and let's see where the problem lies .
[03:25] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: ok, updating a bunch of packages..
[03:25] <BuntuTech> i have created a (fantasy) ubunut COA sticker
[03:25] <BuntuTech> i wonder if i can submit it to the ubununt art staff
[03:25] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Great .. leter rip .
[03:26] <BuntuTech> what is the name of the dev channels for here?
[03:27] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: ok, executed them all, got no errors
[03:27] <Aldryk> Bashing-om: Why are we expecting errors from apptitude though?
[03:29] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: the -f switch is to try and "fix broken, dpkg -C  is "audit" .. No errors at all, then we are looking at a config issue. Can you log into the gust account and it is fuly functional ( as proof what we have here is a config issue) .
[03:29] <Bashing-om> guest*
[03:29] <Aldryk> No, guest account gives me the same problem
[03:30] <casey> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZd8gT50ir0
[03:30] <cbdj> hm
[03:31] <Bashing-om> Aldryk: Above my skill set,  anyone else with ideas ?
[03:37] <CrazyM4n> So I built wine with some patches
[03:37] <CrazyM4n> But it didn't work
[03:37] <CrazyM4n> And I can't uninstall it with apt-get purge wine
[03:37] <CrazyM4n> So how should I go along uninstalling it?
[03:37] <daftykins> hah, enjoy
[03:37] <daftykins> in ubuntu we use packages. you did your own thing... you're left with that :)
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> DD:
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> Okay, well seirously though, where are executables when you build it?
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> I can just delete the wine executable
[03:38] <daftykins> try 'which wine'
[03:38] <SchrodingersScat> is make uninstall a thing?
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> Crap, forgot about make uninstall
[03:38] <daftykins> don't guess. you don't help anyone
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> thanks
[03:38] <daftykins> oh it is XD
[03:38] <daftykins> hilarious
[03:38] <CrazyM4n> and yes, which wine also helped
[03:39] <SchrodingersScat> so the build completed, it just didn't work how you thought it would?
[03:39] <CrazyM4n> Yes
[03:39] <CrazyM4n> also, it says "no rule to make target uninstall"
[03:39] <CrazyM4n> I'm in the folder with the source
[03:40] <SchrodingersScat> welp, can try a which wine and see if that helps you at all, but like daftykins said you're kind of in your own territory
[03:41] <CrazyM4n> Definately
[03:41] <CrazyM4n> If I just delete this wine executable
[03:41] <CrazyM4n> Then reinstall it from scratch
[03:41] <CrazyM4n> it should be a-ok
[03:41] <daftykins> might have to remove it from your path too
[03:43] <CrazyM4n> how do I force a reinstall of a package?
[03:44] <daftykins> apt-get install --reinstall package
[03:44] <CrazyM4n> eh, still broken
[03:44] <CrazyM4n> ;;
[03:45] <daftykins> define broken
[03:45] <CrazyM4n> It's telling me that there is 7 packages not being updated
[03:45] <CrazyM4n> Which I can't
[03:45] <CrazyM4n> wait
[03:46] <CrazyM4n> I say "sudo apt-get purge wine*" and it shows me every package on my system
[03:46] <CrazyM4n> And I nearly pressed y
[03:47] <CrazyM4n> got it; I had an old version of wine installed
[03:47] <CrazyM4n> ugh
[03:47] <hipitihop> I'm on an existing install of 12.04 and HDD has been installed on new mobo an Msi H971AC with HDA Intel, ALC892 adio hardware , I can't get audio over HMDI and through headphones etc it's all ver choppy and grabled sound. Am I bes tto upgrade to latest LTS or is tha tunlikely to help
[03:50] <ki7mt> Ok, I may be having a senior moment here, but I thought package deps that are in the Recommends section are not installed by default, is that not the case?
[03:50] <daftykins> hipitihop: unlikely
[03:51] <ki7mt> And yes, I know about apt-get install --no-recommends .. but I need to limit that activity in the debian/control file.
[03:52] <hipitihop> daftykins, thanks, I also am struggling with space so I would have to have had played with partitions to accomodate the upgrade... Any suggestions ? or am I up against a bit of a brick wall with audio over hdmi
[03:53] <daftykins> hipitihop: about the partitioning or?
[03:54] <hipitihop> daftykins, to get the existing install to route audio via hdmi, the video is fine (btw this is a mythbuntu distro) aplay --list-pcms shows lots of options but none specifically say hdmi
[03:54] <daftykins> hipitihop: are you trying to say you want to hear HDMI audio and headphones audio at the same time? 'cause i don't even know if you can
[03:54] <daftykins> aplay -l would be more relevant
[03:55] <daftykins> but i don't really trust these media respins
[03:55] <hipitihop> daftykins, no, I simply want audio over hdmi, the box connects to my tv, video is fine
[03:56] <hipitihop> daftykins, aplay -l gives card 1: Intel_1 [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog] & card 1: Intel_1 [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC892 Digital [ALC892 Digital]
[03:56] <daftykins> yeah no idea then
[03:58] <hipitihop> daftykins, aplay --list-pcms gives http://paste.ubuntu.com/8490245/
[03:59] <daftykins> hipitihop: kernel ver?
[03:59] <hipitihop> daftykins, 3.2.0-69-generic
[04:00] <daftykins> ancient then
[04:00] <daftykins> you should boot a live session of mythbuntu and see if it works
[04:01] <hipitihop> daftykins, Is it easy/possible to switch to later (latest) kernel on this ?
[04:01] <daftykins> do as i suggested
[04:02] <hipitihop> daftykins, ok will go look for latest mythbuntu livecd thanks
[04:02] <daftykins> hipitihop: but that'll probably be on a different ubuntu version, that won't be a good test :D
[04:04] <hipitihop> daftykins, sure, but if we can establish here is a mix that will work with my hardware then that is probably a useful datapoint ?
[04:04] <daftykins> whichever way you want to go, sure
[04:05] <daftykins> i'd have preferred to know if 12.04 works out of the box :>
[04:05] <hipitihop> daftykins, shortest route for it to just work :-)
[04:05] <daftykins> *nod*
[04:06] <hillary> Hi all, after upgrading to ubuntu 14.04 LTS my laptop cannot display desktop icons.What do i do
[04:07] <cfhowlett> hillary, check your screen display resolution settings
[04:07] <hillary> How do icheck now there is no where to click?
[04:08] <hillary> cfhowlett: i mean how doi go about it
[04:09] <cfhowlett> hillary, settings > Display > ...
[04:09] <hillary> cfhowlett: ok let me check
[04:11]  * hipitihop downloads latest 14.04.1 amd64 mythbuntu iso
[04:16] <hillary> cfhowlett: The screen is blank without any icon to click for settings. Only the label ubuntu 14.04 Lts is showing in the bottom
[04:17] <cfhowlett> hillary, *that* is abnormal ... I'm on xubuntu so my environment is different.  Ask again in channel.  Someone will know
[04:17] <hillary> ok
[04:18] <hillary> After i upgraded from ubuntu 12.04 to lts to 14.04 lts my laptop screen cannot show any icon. It start well but it cannot load icons. How do i go about
[04:22] <snadge> i just download 2.2gb of ubuntu updates in 5 minutes :D ... hello 14.10!
[04:22] <squinty> hillary: just a quick thought as I am heading out here again...  might want to take a look at installing   unity-tweak-tools
[04:22] <daftykins> snadge: 14.10 talk is in #ubuntu+1 thanks
[04:23] <hillary> squinty: how do i do that?
[04:26] <Terabyte> hi, other than bintray, does anybody know of any private deb repository providers?
[04:26] <daftykins> we don't support PPAs and thus don't advise them
[04:28] <x_root> hello, i just did "sudo service lightdm --restart"
[04:28] <x_root> is possible that any program is still running?
[04:28] <x_root> or all of them were closed in the process?
[04:31] <daftykins> all dead
[04:38] <x_root> thanks daftykins
[04:40] <phunyguy> daftykins: we do support PPAs, if it is the way to get things done, and it is probably not good to speak for an entire channel.
[04:41] <phunyguy> daftykins: one thing to keep in mind is: we are not Canonical.  We are Ubuntu community support.  If YOU don't support PPAs, that is fine, but please stop speaking for the entire channel with that.
[04:42] <daftykins> phunyguy: maybe helping the user is more of a priority than correcting me?
[04:42] <phunyguy> maybe correcting you now will help the user later.
[04:42] <daftykins> doubt it
[04:43] <phunyguy> noted.
[04:43] <cfhowlett> ppa factoid "WARNING: PPAs are unsupported ..."
[04:43] <phunyguy> does that specify the Ubuntu IRC community?
[04:44] <phunyguy> or Canonical?
[04:45] <Terabyte> thanks phunyguy i wanted to say that but didn't want to be kicked.
[04:45] <Terabyte> There is a difference between "support, endorsement, recommendation" and just telling somebody what's out there.
[04:46] <Terabyte> i'm not looking for somebody to endorse anything, I'm just looking to know if there are any private deb repo providers out there. otherwise i'm going to have to build my own and I don't really want to do that.
[04:59] <John_smithson> Hello. Im new to IRC. may one of you show me around?
[04:59] <SchrodingersScat> !freenode | John_smithson
[05:00] <John_smithson> ok thank you
[05:01] <SchrodingersScat> John_smithson: You're welcome!
[05:02] <John_smithson> so....can i axis any "channel" through any "network"?
[05:03] <SchrodingersScat> !alis | John_smithson
[05:03] <SchrodingersScat> but no, different networks would have other channels, your client may support multiple networks
[05:04] <John_smithson> this till defiantly take some time.
[05:04] <SchrodingersScat> patience can get you a long way
[05:27] <mehdi_> hey guys how can i ssh to my pc from anywhere?
[05:28] <somsip> !ppa
[05:29] <eeee> mehdi_: do you have sshd running?
[05:30] <somsip> !ot
[05:30] <eeee> somsip: ? :D
[05:34] <mehdi_> eeee, u mean service sshd status?
[05:35] <mehdi_> eeee, i dont have ssh servive
[05:36] <mehdi_> eeee, sshd: unrecognized service
[05:36] <daftykins> mehdi_: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[05:50] <XHTBMTFYFB> hello
[05:59] <dumbuser> hi there,  I'd like to press a button and have all my external hard drives shared with my entire network.  I do not care about security and I do not want to use a text editor, i want a big dumb button that makes things work
[05:59] <dumbuser> I like that you can right click on things and hit "share",  except the part where that doesn't actually work.
[06:03] <dumbuser> currently i share things with my wife using a thumb drive, she sits right next to me on a standard windows machine, so  thats a good sign that samba is terrible and should die a horrible death of a thousand agonising config edits
[06:04] <phunyguy> dumbuser: http://kimbriggs.com/computers/computer-notes/linux-notes/samba-setup-guide-ubuntu.file  <---- no security
[06:05] <eeee> ubuntu - bringing family together :)
[06:05] <__unik> eeee?
[06:06] <phunyguy> also http://archive09.linux.com/whatislinux/118625
[06:06] <dumbuser> thanks phynyguy,  problem being that requires all the shared files to be in the home directory.   I have 20 terrabytes to share and a 100gb home ssd
[06:06] <phunyguy> that most certainly does not have those requirements
[06:07] <phunyguy> you can share folders from anywhere on the filesystem
[06:07] <phunyguy> (as long as you have administrator access, which is required, home folder or not)
[06:07] <dumbuser> you're a good sort phunyguy
[06:08] <phunyguy> also "big dumb buttons" get folks in trouble.
[06:08] <dumbuser> i do wonder why it needs all this text though,  i would have thought htiting share and saying to let anyone access it would have achieved that goal
[06:09] <phunyguy> I am not sure there.  I suspect that it is still avery new concept, but editing smb.conf and changing the security level will help you.
[06:09] <phunyguy> a very*
[06:12] <dumbuser> eh, that didn't actually work, still getting the same "you do not have permission"  error from windows side
[06:14] <phunyguy> sorry, maybe someone else will come along soon that can help.  I have to go for now.  They can show you how to read some logs, and figure out wjy it won't work.  Just be patient.  Goodnight.
[06:14] <phunyguy> why*
[06:14] <eeee> are you pressing the guest access option?
[06:14] <eeee> ( @ dumbuser )
[06:15] <dumbuser> urgh, patience.    i just want something that "just works" i have much better things to be doing than trying to reinvent the wheel each time i want to share a funny picture
[06:15] <dumbuser> yes, guest access
[06:16] <phunyguy> I suspect there could be an issue where a failed setup is getting in the way, like the windows side has a cached password somewhere and is forcefully trying to use it.
[06:18] <dumbuser> i know im being thick and ungrateful for a great product which is free, but i just don't get why it works out of the box in windows, and doesn't work in ubuntu.
[06:18] <okchicken> Something strange just happened
[06:18] <okchicken> I installed Ubuntu Mate, everything worked great
[06:18] <okchicken> went to reboot
[06:18] <speaker1234> I'm trying to set up Apache with wsgi but something's wrong and I cannot get a single log message out of Apache.
[06:18] <dumbuser> I don't think i have the time for this right now,  thanks for the help, im going to go back to doing more important things and just accept that networking is broken in ubuntu
[06:18] <okchicken> now my system doesn't recognize a boot loader and it won't start..
[06:18] <okchicken> I installed using UEFI and was booting in UEFI mode
[06:19] <speaker1234> okchicken, it's possible that your device name associations have shifted
[06:19] <speaker1234> in other words, what was sda1 is now something else
[06:19] <speaker1234> did you configurefstaqb with uuid?
[06:20] <okchicken> speaker- I have no idea
[06:20] <okchicken> I did that standard install from a usb stick, encrypted my drive and home folder
[06:20] <speaker1234> postbin your fstab from that system
[06:22] <okchicken> speaker - what would cause my device names to change?
[06:23] <speaker1234> it's a combination of the motherboard and udev
[06:24] <speaker1234> of course it changes only if there are multiple drives in the system
[06:24] <okchicken> speaker - I didn't seem to have this problem when I was running Mint 17
[06:25] <speaker1234> it is no big deal. that is why uuid's were invented
[06:26] <apk2crx> hi
[06:27] <apk2crx> anyone?
[06:28] <okchicken> speaker - ok, so how could i fix it so I can boot properly?
[06:28] <okchicken> I'm working off the live USB right now
[06:28] <speaker1234> what you have for discs?
[06:28] <apk2crx> to fix what ?
[06:29] <speaker1234> morning apk2crx
[06:29] <okchicken> apk2- I installed Ubuntu Mate, worked fine
[06:29] <okchicken> rebooted the computer, and now it won't boot!
[06:29] <okchicken> I installed with "UEFI" set in the motherboard
[06:30] <apk2crx> afternoon speaker1234
[06:30] <speaker1234> okchicken, what do you have for discs in the system?
[06:30] <okchicken> speaker - what do you mean? Which command should I run?
[06:30] <apk2crx> any error?
[06:31] <speaker1234> how hard drives do you have in the system?
[06:31] <okchicken> speaker - only 1
[06:31] <speaker1234> ok so it is not likely a drive number change problem
[06:31] <speaker1234> you probably just need to reinstall grub
[06:32] <apk2crx> You should use a live system to reinstall grub
[06:32] <okchicken> can I run grub if I use UEFI?
[06:32] <speaker1234>  if you boot off of a live system, you should see an option to be off of the hard drive
[06:33] <speaker1234> yes you can
[06:33] <okchicken> speaker - ok, which utility should i use to reinstall grub?

[06:39] <speaker1234> rewording the question Sorry, speech recognition error
[06:39] <apk2crx> it is very easy to make it in xubuntu.
[06:41] <speaker1234> apk2crx, how are you on Apache questions?
[06:42] <kudo> can someone help me to overcome "Could not validate source - Invalid argument" error when I'm trying to copy ubuntu.dmg to usb?
[06:42] <mablue> any one can give me his phone num and then i give it to amazon for sending pin?!
[06:42] <apk2crx> Any problem in apache?
[06:42] <apk2crx> speaker1234
[06:42] <mablue> my country is not in  list
[06:42] <utfans05_home> apk2crx: what issues are you having with it?
[06:43] <mablue> my country is not in  list !any one can give me his phone num and then i give it to amazon for sending pin?!
[06:43] <utfans05_home> oops, I ment speaker1234
[06:44] <apk2crx> mablue,for what ?
[06:44] <speaker1234> I'm trying to configure my Apache server to work with wsgi. The main problem is I get nothing from the server, no response, no log messages no nothing. It's completely silent
[06:45] <mablue> apk2crx: for regist
[06:45] <utfans05_home> speaker1234 Firewall opened?
[06:45] <speaker1234>  shouldn't be a problem because I'm ssh'ing in but let me check
[06:46] <speaker1234> okay IP tables were disabled
[06:46] <utfans05_home> if the firewall is not opened for port 80 then you wont be able to connect.
[06:46] <apk2crx> mablue,my phone number is registered.
[06:46] <utfans05_home> ok, Is apache actually listening on port 80?     netstat -plant | grep 80
[06:46] <mablue> in aws.amazun.com?
[06:46] <mablue> aws.amazon.com
[06:46] <apk2crx> mablue,yeah
[06:47] <mablue> ok
[06:47] <speaker1234> okay it's only giving me IPv6.
[06:47] <mablue> tnx
[06:48] <apk2crx> You can call to the Customer Service to solve it.
[06:48] <speaker1234> pstbinning the config
[06:48] <apk2crx> mablue
[06:49] <mablue> apk2crx: I should call to obama to solve it .im from iran
[06:49] <utfans05_home> speaker1234:  that netstate line should have looked like this   tcp6       0      0 :::80                   :::*                    LISTEN      11379/apache2

[06:51] <speaker1234> fg
[06:51] <utfans05_home> yeah. that's right.
[06:51] <utfans05_home> Are you using iptables or ufw for your firewall?
[06:51] <mablue> apk2crx: can u make an acount with your home number an give it pw for me?
[06:51] <utfans05_home> speaker1234: PM me the ip of the server. I'd like to take a poke at it from the outside to see if I can get some hints.
[06:52] <speaker1234> not using any firewall and server is on VM on my laptop.
[06:52] <utfans05_home> oh.... that makes things more intresting...
[06:52] <utfans05_home> lol
[06:53] <speaker1234> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8490949/
[06:53] <utfans05_home> Inside of the sever if you run    curl -liv localhost what does it return?
[06:54] <mablue> F**** evry thing is blocked for iran :D
[06:55] <speaker1234> returns what I expect it should. It shows a normal HTTP response complete with my index.html
[06:55] <utfans05_home> ok, So you are now trying to get it from outside the vm?
[06:55] <speaker1234> mablue, maybe you should try using a malware infected USB stick ;-)
[06:56] <utfans05_home> HEHEHE!\
[06:56] <speaker1234> utfans05_home, yes I am. It's the same place I'm sshing in from, the host OS
[06:56] <utfans05_home> Hrm, I'm not sure.
[06:56] <utfans05_home> That would have to do with how the OS and the VM talk.
[06:57] <mablue> speaker1234: yeh i use if it need .what is this?
[06:57] <speaker1234>
[06:58] <utfans05_home> mablue: it was a joke since all of iran's nuke refining got hacked due to a malware infected usb.
[06:58] <speaker1234> it's also joke based on the latest exploit with USB sticks
[06:58] <speaker1234> utfans05_home and I are too witty for our own good
[06:58] <utfans05_home> < prior Air Force Intel Analyst :P
[07:00] <mablue> utfans05_home: but its not true ! some thing is changed when u hear it from israil presedent...

[07:01] <netlar> I seem to be missing the software updater, how can I get it back?
[07:04] <speaker1234> **dO'h**
[07:04] <netlar> Is that the GNOME update manager I see in synaptic?
[07:04] <speaker1234> I am such an idiot. Localhost is not localhost when you have two different local hosts. :-)
[07:04] <utfans05_home> LOL
[07:05] <utfans05_home> I was just thinking that.
[07:06] <speaker1234> In my defense, I have had a "mild" migraine for two days, went out on a nice date and then came home to email from my ex-wife.
[07:06] <utfans05_home> fun...
[07:07] <speaker1234> so my mind wasn't exactly wasn't thinking aboutcomputers. And it's 3 AM again which means I should get to bed since tomorrow is tech support call with mom
[07:08] <speaker1234> I get to convert her husband's laptop over to Linux *yaaa* and I might even convert her machine to Linuso that my niece will stop messing with it
[07:08] <utfans05_home> lol
[07:09] <speaker1234> utfans05_home, thank you for being kind and not pointing out what a total idiot I was. :-) maybe I can return the favor someday
[07:09] <utfans05_home> Maybe!
[07:09] <speaker1234> nite all.

[09:00] <Aaruni> need urgent help
[09:00] <nestle33> if i installed ubuntu with raid0 on /home but raid1 on /boot and / would that mean that if the raid0 crashes for /home that the OS would still boot and i could still get command line ?
[09:00] <Aaruni> my log folder in /var/log is eating up 60 GB space. Is it OK for the system to clear it all ?
[09:00] <nestle33> that/would*
[09:00] <eeee> 60gb?
[09:00] <Aaruni> eeee: yes.
[09:01] <eeee> du -sh /var/log
[09:01] <eeee> gives you 60gb?
[09:01] <Aaruni> 36G	/var/log
[09:02] <Aaruni> but the GUI program "DISK USAGE ANALYZER" says /var/log is 60.4 GB
[09:02] <eeee> ok that might be due to "disk usage" vs actual size
[09:02] <eeee> anyways it's pretty substantial
[09:03] <Aaruni> eeee: OK to delete it all ?
[09:03] <Aaruni> I've only got 2 GB left in my system
[09:03] <eeee> no idea

[10:01] <brokenboot> I'm on ubuntu 14.04. After an update the system won't boot anymore. I used boot-repair to fix it, it boots again, but as soon as update-grub is run, it breaks the boot process again. The system craps out with busybox prompt, but won't accept keyboard input and I can't see what the error message was due to a pile of errors about tick source
[10:02] <brokenboot> it's worth pointing out that I am trying to boot with degraded raid1, and I have added bootdegraded=true to my kernel options

[10:09] <abcd> what I don't get is where is the adress of the sshd?
[10:10] <abcd> it says that host is my laptop but if this is my laptop I just would connect to my local sshd???
[10:11] <josiah14> can people see this?  I want to make sure I'm properly connected - didn't get a confirmation after identifying with NickServ
[10:12] <abcd> yes
[10:12] <abcd> at least me
[10:13] <abcd> or is the laptop not the machine I enter the ssh command?
[10:13] <Linnak> Hi, I have 3 type of ubuntu in virtualbox. I installed a lot of apps on one of them and I'd like to install all of them on the other two. How can I do that the easiest way?

[10:22] <xeon> need help to start learning
[10:23] <Svetlana> Why does removing systemd-* in apt-get result in it saying that it would also uninstall gnome-session?  Gnome-session has nothing to do with startup tools in my view.
[10:25] <cristian_c> tomatillo, virtualbox
[10:26] <tomatillo> cristian_c: have you installed the Guest Additions?
[10:27] <cristian_c> tomatillo, yes
[10:28] <tomatillo> cristian_c: ok. power the vm off. then click the entry in the vm list in virtualbox and then click settings. in the settings click the Advanced tab. There should be a setting for Shared Clipboard, make sure it's selected as Bidirectional
[10:29] <Alpy> I know it is illegal but i downloaded a crack of matlab for linux, i tried to download it, but it tells me i can't
[10:29] <abcd> you better download scilab ;)
[10:30] <tomatillo> cristian_c: there is also a setting there for drag and drop, if you set that to bidirectional then you can drag/drop files between host/guest as well
[10:30] <Alpy> scilab does not compile my code
[10:30] <ibelow> anybody understand russian?
[10:30] <cristian_c> tomatillo, it's already bidirectional

[10:37] <tomatillo> cristian_c: then reboot the vm, reinstall Guest Additions and try it again

[10:54] <bipul> Can any one help me. I am unable to install any packages via terminal. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8492011/  Also I am getting this messages on my terminal whenever i try to update http://paste.ubuntu.com/8492051/

[10:55] <AleksejsM> I'd like to know how it's possible, that wifi works even on install time on 12.04, but doesn't work at all on newer 13.10
[10:58] <AleksejsM> Anyone?

[11:05] <azizLIGHT> i need some help with nvidia graphics? i installed ppa xorg-edgers and used "additional drivers" to load the newest nvidia drivers from the ppa (340.32). latest driver for my geforcegtx  770. it loaded fine but i have flickering all the time randomly on parts of the screen
[11:05] <azizLIGHT> newest drivers from nvidia itself is 340.46 though
[11:06] <bipul> abcd: Yes i have searched that issue, but it does not resolve my issue.
[11:06] <azizLIGHT> advice?
[11:11] <abcd> bipul, when you enter cat /etc/environment   do you get more than one line?
[11:11] <abcd> is there something containing java?
[11:17] <abcd> bipul, what does sudo update-alternatives --config java output?
[11:17] <HadesWatch3r> Which file system is best for use with an  SSD, I've heard that BTRFS is very good with SSD's?
[11:19] <ikonia> just use the default file system provided by ubuntu
[11:19] <ikonia> which is ext4
[11:20] <HadesWatch3r> ikonia thanks for the reply.
[11:20] <Surendil> lvm is also an option
[11:21] <ikonia> lvm is not a file system
[11:21] <ikonia> so it's not an option for "what is the best file system"
[11:21] <azizLIGHT> what things do we need to do for an ssd
[11:21] <ikonia> nothing
[11:21] <ikonia> an SSD is just a disk
[11:21] <bipul> abcd: This is the output for " sudo update-alternatives --config java " http://paste.ubuntu.com/8492200/ Between I have shortouted my issue by commenting on 2 line inside /etc/environment I got to know from here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/1311548
[11:21] <azizLIGHT> doesnt it need trim or whatever
[11:21] <ikonia> azizLIGHT: it doesn't "need" trim, you can use trim if you want though, ubuntu should auto detect this now in the current distro
[11:22] <azizLIGHT> so how do i tell if i got it setup or not
[11:22] <ikonia> azizLIGHT: you will see it  in the mount options
[11:22] <azizLIGHT> ikonia: ahh but im using luks though
[11:23] <ikonia> then you won't be using trim
[11:23] <azizLIGHT> so i hve a /dev/mapper in mount
[11:23] <ikonia> /dev/mapper is just a pointer to a device
[11:23] <azizLIGHT> isnt that bad
[11:23] <ikonia> you will still see the options in "mount"
[11:24] <azizLIGHT> im using a luks partition... and then lvm insie the luks
[11:24] <ikonia> right ?
[11:24] <azizLIGHT> with lv for each mount point
[11:24] <ikonia> so ?
[11:25] <azizLIGHT> but i dont see /dev/sda6 (my luks partition) or any /dev/sda mounts besides /dev/sda2 (/boot/efi) and /dev/sda5 (/boot)
[11:25] <ikonia> I don't see your point
[11:25] <ikonia> so ?
[11:25] <ikonia> logical volumes and device mappers are still device files that you mount
[11:26] <azizLIGHT> i dont see /dev/sda* with trim anywhere
[11:26] <ikonia> again so what ?
[11:26] <azizLIGHT> i want trim
[11:26] <azizLIGHT> is it possible
[11:27] <ikonia> then you need to confiugre luks to allow trim support
[11:27] <ikonia> which is not out of the box as it weakens encryption
[11:27] <azizLIGHT> hmmm
[11:27] <azizLIGHT> its not recommended?
[11:27] <ikonia> I didn't say that
[11:28] <desperate_joe> hello everybody
[11:28] <azizLIGHT> is it difficult
[11:28] <ikonia> depends on your abilities and knowledge
[11:28] <ikonia> before you do anything I'd ask myself an honest question "do I need encyption on this disk"
[11:28] <ikonia> then move forward from there
[11:28] <azizLIGHT> i already got it all setup
[11:28] <ikonia> most people I've found personally encypt disk without reason other than wrongly thinking they need encyption
[11:29] <azizLIGHT> the encryption
[11:29] <desperate_joe> looking for a cross platform (ubuntu - android)to create a library including ebooks and real books
[11:29] <ikonia> and with encrypting the disk, they make more problems for themselves
[11:29] <azizLIGHT> the encryption setup wasnt too bad
[11:29] <ikonia> I didn't say the setup was
[11:29] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: Calibre
[11:29] <ikonia> however it can create problems (such as you are finding now) later down the road
[11:29] <azizLIGHT> hmm
[11:29] <azizLIGHT> what other problems can happen
[11:29] <desperate_joe> calibre works on android?
[11:30] <ikonia> azizLIGHT: this is research you should have done before encypting your disk
[11:30] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: That I don't know, I've used it on Windows and Ubuntu. Why would you create the library from android anyway? :)
[11:30] <azizLIGHT> yea most guides go over pros/cons but theyre not considering ssds, at least the guides i read
[11:31] <ikonia> azizLIGHT: so again, I'd go back to the question of "do I really need encyption" then move forward from there
[11:31] <desperate_joe> because i have 500+ books and i want to scan them and intigrate them in the program, knowing always when in a bookstore if i have that book or not
[11:31] <Zaitzev> Ah, I see what you mean
[11:32] <desperate_joe> i have 5000+ ebooks, and 500+ paper books, so the objective is to make 1 central database
[11:32] <ikonia> desperate_joe: would you not do that in a web app ?
[11:32] <ikonia> then reference the web site from the ubuntu or android device
[11:32] <desperate_joe> don't understand what you mean ikonia
[11:32] <Zaitzev> You COULD read up on Calibre and see if it has any feature that allow you to do so. I know Calibre has a content server with which you can connect (and presumably by some magic use with a scanner)
[11:33] <Zaitzev> OH! And I just read on their page: Support for Android phones and tablets :)
[11:33] <geirha> There are already databases on the net that contains titles and images of books. You just need to plot in the ISBN number.
[11:34] <Zaitzev> crap, nevermind. I assume that is just compatibility in terms of connecting to and syncing etc.
[11:34] <Zaitzev> geirha: And with a scanner you can scan a barcode which transfers the ISBN into the text field on that search page
[11:37] <markc> would anyone care to "sponsor" a bug report for me please?
[11:37] <ikonia> markc: sponsor ? you don't need to sponsor things
[11:37] <markc> the "bug" is that roundcube should not depend on apache when nginx is already installed
[11:37] <ikonia> markc: just raise the bug,
[11:38] <desperate_joe> i've been looking in google play, and there's calibre cloud and calibre sync
[11:38] <markc> ikonia: how? if you mean by using apport I don't have it or python installed on my servers
[11:38] <nevermoreraven2> um what does google play have to do with ubuntu?
[11:38] <ikonia> markc: is this bug for ubuntu or debian
[11:38] <nevermoreraven2> that's offtopic guys
[11:39] <desperate_joe> i'm looking into a program that can be used in both
[11:39] <desperate_joe> calibre
[11:39] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: I assume those are related to the management of the books themselves, but they might have a search function. Either way, Calibre is one of the best book management software out there, imo.
[11:39] <markc> ikonia: I have no idea, I went to install roundcube and it depends on apache when I already have nginx installed, that to me seems like a bug
[11:39] <Zaitzev> I've used Calibre to edit and sync with my ipad - I too have a ton of ebooks :p
[11:39] <ikonia> markc: are you installing it on ubuntu or debian
[11:40] <markc> ikonia: ubuntu 14.04 and 14.10
[11:40] <desperate_joe> @zaitev: how did it work on your ipad? what did you download? calibre cloud or sync?
[11:40] <ikonia> markc: ok, so log a bug in launchpad.net against the package
[11:40] <nevermoreraven2> ubuntu 14.10 is out?
[11:40] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: Nothing, I upload books from the pc software right onto the ipad
[11:40] <ikonia> nevermoreraven2: not yet
[11:41] <desperate_joe> and can you use your program on the ipad to scan and add paper books?
[11:41] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: No no, I don't have any app on the ipad
[11:42] <markc> ikonia: thanks, I guess I have to sign up for yet another account... that's why I was hoping someone already familiar with launchpad would "sponsor" this bug
[11:42] <desperate_joe> ok, i see
[11:42] <ikonia> markc: no-one will or should log bugs for you - it's your bug/your problem you need to take ownership of it
[11:42] <Razzeeyy> guys what's wrong with ubuntu input method since like ubuntu 13.10? when I'm on russian layout some apps like stop reacting to keys so as if they now recieve a text-wise keypress itself not a keycode or something... that wasn't happening before till recent ubuntu releases I believe it has something to do with input method
[11:43] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: I have ebooks added to Calibre that I have edited (metadata, filenames etc), then uploaded to the ipad. I'm just reading them on the ipad. You would have to look into the android apps and see if they provide what you seek :)
[11:43] <markc> ikonia: hard to believe it only affects me, anyone runnign nginx will have the same problem... maybe nginx is not that popular with ubuntu folks... anyway, point taken
[11:44] <desperate_joe> i understand... do you think it is possbile what i want? an integrated library?
[11:45] <markc> ikonia: up till now I've always avoided the issue by installing roundcube from upstream, this time I thought I would at least alert someone
[11:45] <Zaitzev> desperate_joe: Calibre being so advanced and feature rich, I can only assume.
[11:45] <markc> ikonia: thanks for your help
[11:47] <nevermoreraven2> what happened to gobuntu?
[11:49] <pin> hi
[11:49] <pin> hi
[11:49] <GPenguin> hello, is there a dedicated channel for ufw related questions?
[11:49] <pin> what ?
[11:49] <pin> gpenguin.. where are you come from
[11:50] <somsip> !ot | pin
[11:52] <desperate_joe> @zaitzev: installed both calibre and calibre sync, but i can't seem to make a connection, and the sync is really only to access your ebooks on a wireless device
[11:52] <GPenguin> !ufw
[11:52] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:53] <desperate_joe> so it is really lacking the option to insert paper books
[11:53] <GPenguin> i assume the silence means it is okay to ask ufw related questions here
[11:53] <GPenguin> is it possible to mix ufw with iptables rules (e.g. from fail2ban)?
[11:55] <chalcedony> GPenguin, hi :)
[11:58] <Rohan_14> Hello I am working on a simple management project it requires to upload file from user but i dont want to store their uploaded files on my main server is there another cheap option for that thnks
[11:58] <GPenguin> what about DNS? i see in no example how you handle DNS when you block incoming
[12:00] <somsip> GPenguin: is this essentially a ufw question of a Fail2Ban question?
[12:00] <somsip> *or
[12:01] <desperate_joe> Zaitzev?
[12:01] <GPenguin> i ask if the fail2ban rules work when you use ufw
[12:01] <ikonia> GPenguin: that makes no sense
[12:02] <ikonia> fail2ban rules work when they pattern match
[12:02] <ikonia> if you are blocking access, they will never hit the service to hit the logs to pattern match
[12:02] <GPenguin> ikonia: could you refrain from making offensive comments?
[12:02] <ikonia> GPenguin: there is nothing offensive in what I said
[12:02] <GPenguin> if you fail to grasp the sense it does not mean i make no sense
[12:02] <GPenguin> now cut it off
[12:02] <ikonia> GPenguin: no, what you ask doesn't make sense
[12:02] <GPenguin> let others help who care
[12:03] <ikonia> as fail2ban depends on pattern matching logs
[12:03] <ikonia> if you are blocking access to a service it will not hit the logs so fail2ban can't pattern match
[12:03] <GPenguin> it uses iptables and i want to know if ufw interfers with other programs that use iptables direclty
[12:03] <ikonia> GPenguin: fail2ban doesn't interact with ufw - it interacts with fail2ban
[12:03] <ikonia> sorry it iptbles directly
[12:03] <ikonia> so it won't cause a problem
[12:04] <GPenguin> testing my nerves again. alright. anybody else?
[12:04] <ikonia> ufw is just "fronting" iptables
[12:04] <ikonia> so iptables is still the netfilter firewall, so it wo'nt cause a problem
[12:04] <GPenguin> why the whole drama instead of posting that last line?
[12:04] <ikonia> there is no drama
[12:04] <GPenguin> shove your ego to the door and keep it out
[12:14] <miaw> hi there
[12:14] <miaw> well i have a question  , How to permanently delete the guest account from ubuntu login ???
[12:16] <ahmet> slm
[12:17] <ahmet> heyyy
[12:18] <ahmet> sanane
[12:19] <miaw> Help please i folowed this http://askubuntu.com/questions/451526/removing-guest-session-at-login-in-ubuntu-14-04 but after rebooting i keep getting black screen and it says lightdm failed to load
[12:19] <miaw> I am using Lubuntu !
[12:20] <Ben64> miaw: what exactly did you do
 i fixed it by undoing what i did from  the recovery mode , but can you plaese showme the right way to remove the guest account permanantly , thanks *
[12:22] <desperate_joe> how to scan barcode with webcam in ubuntu and make a database?
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> miaw: you can hide the entry in lightdm
[12:22] <ikonia> desperate_joe: that's a pretty big quetion
[12:22] <ikonia> desperate_joe: thats more about application development
[12:22] <ikonia> desperate_joe: thats not a one stop answer
[12:23] <desperate_joe> i think it is more as in connecting maybe 2 existing programs?
  can you explain more or give me a link where i can follow steps  thanks
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> miaw: http://www.puppychau.com/archives/130
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> miaw: how long did that take me to find?
[12:23] <ikonia> desperate_joe: right, so they have to be aware of each other, you need to find hte program first before asking "how to do it"
[12:23] <desperate_joe> maybe first question: can i scan barcodes with webcam in ubuntu and which program to use?
[12:23] <ikonia> desperate_joe: scan is just a photo
[12:23] <ikonia> desperate_joe: so "yes"
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> miaw: searched the web, like...1 minute tops....
[12:26] <pavlos> desperate_joe, https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/zbar-tools/
 link isn working  i already followed this http://askubuntu.com/questions/451526/removing-guest-session-at-login-in-ubuntu-14-04 but didnt work
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> !info zbar-tools | desperate_joe
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> miaw: did you log off to test
[12:27] <miaw> ActionParsnip> I rebooted and then i couldnt  login
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> miaw: http://www.tejasbarot.com/2014/04/24/hide-disable-guest-remote-login-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts-trusty-tahr/#axzz3FB85leoY
 I didnt log of i rebooted , could that be the cause
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> miaw: what is the output of: car /etc/issue
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> miaw: reboot will work too, lightdm reloads and rereads the config
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> miaw: http://www.tejasbarot.com/2014/04/24/hide-disable-guest-remote-login-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts-trusty-tahr/#axzz3FB85leoY
[12:30] <desperate_joe> zbar does not work... it just opens the cam, and works like a cam
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> Oop
 it asks for a  passphrase
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> desperate_joe: did you read how to use it?
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> miaw: yes, thats your login password for sudo to work....
[12:31] <desperate_joe> you use it in a terminal, and it makes a picture of what you are holding in front of the cam
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> miaw: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/08/lightdm-how-to-disable-user-list-or.html
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> desperate_joe: it also decodes things according to the web, did you read he man page or guides online?
[12:32] <desperate_joe> there is a list of commands in the terminal
  ok i"ll try those link thanks
[12:34] <pavlos> desperate_joe, did you read the man page for zbarcam ?
[12:35] <desperate_joe> i used the commands as appeared in the terminal
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> desperate_joe: http://fitzcarraldoblog.wordpress.com/2012/10/05/installing-and-using-zbar-in-linux-to-scan-bar-codes-with-your-webcam/
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> desperate_joe: if you research an application rather than trying to guess you will succeed more.
[12:35] <elohimswagger> Hello, I'm having issues untarring a tar.gz file with both tar xvzf and gunzip. Verbose output shows the files in the tar but these do not exist in the dir as they should be.
[12:36] <elohimswagger> Any help? Thanks!
[12:38] <elohimswagger> Any ideas? Anyone?
[12:39] <ikonia> elohimswagger: please show me the output of the command "ls -la filename.tar.gz"
[12:40] <elohimswagger> That will prove problematic. I'm attempting this on an isolated machine and communicating here on a separate device.
[12:41] <elohimswagger> I will give relevant output that seems useful. Uno momento.
[12:41] <ikonia> elohimswagger: give me the full exact output - or not at all
[12:41] <elohimswagger> Sorry, I will attempt as expediently as possible.
[12:42] <ikonia> elohimswagger: there is no rush
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> elohimswagger: install unp and use unp on the file, unp will extract nearly anything
[12:42] <ikonia> elohimswagger: (use a pastebin if it's a few lines long output)
[12:42] <ahmet> ok
[12:43] <ahmet> nasılsın devrım
[12:44]  * ActionParsnip reckons unp should be installed by default
[12:44] <elohimswagger> Also problematic. The regarded machine is not networked. I'm running forensic analysis on it.
[12:44] <elohimswagger> Otherwise I would.
[12:45] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, agreed , luv unp
[12:47] <g0th> hi
[12:47] <g0th> where can I find collections of usable images?
[12:48] <g0th> like walls/etc
[12:48] <g0th> huge collection

[12:48] <g0th> for a game

[12:53] <cfhowlett> !fr | delphus,
[13:11] <demahum12> I'm trying to change default workspace. I have found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/410419/how-to-set-the-default-workspace Can anyone help me how to do these things from the first answer?
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> demahum12: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[13:12] <demahum12> ActionParsnip, Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[13:13] <freon> what is the right way to install  virtualbox in ubuntu , and to get the same features the the windows virsion like USB support ???
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> freon: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> demahum12: do you mean the default workspace per application, or the one that shows after logon?
[13:15] <freon> <ActionParsnip; and which one work better vb or vmware workstation .. ??
[13:15] <demahum12> ActionParsnip, as the question from the link says, the one that shows after logon.
[13:15] <OerHeks> USB is an option in virtualbox
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> freon: the question is nonsensical
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> freon: meither is better than th other. If one was, nobody would use he inferior product and die out
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> freon: both systems have advantages so both exist
[13:16] <freon> ActionParsnip> does virtualbox-ose support usb ?
[13:17] <steve__> Looking for help with Ubuntu and Java with my Firefox.  Java and Flash worked.  It doesn't anymore without me changing anything
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> freon: yes
[13:18] <steve__> Anyone wanna help?
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> steve__: does it show ok in https://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp
[13:18] <freon>  <ActionParsnip> thanks : )
[13:18] <cfhowlett> steve__, USB supported on virtualbox-4.3
[13:19] <cfhowlett> steve__, eeks! sorry @ freon
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> steve__: what is the output of: java -version; cat /etc/issue
[13:19] <steve__> ActionParsnip, I'm going to do a pastebin with what "java -version" gives me brb
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> freon: your "which is better" question makes as much sense as "which is better, coke or pepsi?"
[13:20] <steve__> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8492785/
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> freon: neither is "better", people have different requirements and tastes, so both are fine
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> steve__: and the output of: cat /etc/issue
[13:20] <steve__> ActionParsnip, Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> steve__: the webupd7
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> steve__: the webupd8 ppa lets you install oracle java easily, use tab and enter to accept the license
[13:21] <steve__> ActionParsnip, That "Ubuntu 14.04.1 ..." thing is what cat /etc/issue give me
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> steve__: plus it will be enabled in your browser for you :)
[13:22] <Ateist> Hi, who can help me? I have a problem with USB scancode reader, and I'm new in linux.
[13:22] <steve__> ActionParsnip, Where do I find that webupd7 or webupd8 ppa ?
[13:23] <steve__> Ateist, What is the question?
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> steve__: its webupd8, you'll find it easily online....
[13:23] <steve__> Ateist, Because all I find in your post is a declaration that there is a problem
[13:23] <Ateist> Yes, it scans not full barcode, everytime one number is missing.
[13:23] <Ateist> In windows everythink is OK, but in different ubuntu versions same problem.
[13:23] <Ateist> For example: I get 5449172 instead of 54491472
[13:23] <Ateist> or I get<PHONE_NUMBER>16 instead of<PHONE_NUMBER>016
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Ateist: is the an option you can add to the command to tweak its behaviour?
[13:25] <Ateist> It can be programmed using printed barcodes. And it is allready configured as we want it to work.
[13:26] <Ateist> No any application or command.
[13:27] <Ateist> on same PC (2 different PC-s) under windows everythink is OK
[13:27] <houserockr> Ateist: I could imagine that drivers for such devices need to be calibrated. maybe you need to do that for the linux driver, too.
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Ateist: it must be or you wouldn't get the functionality
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Ateist: I suggest you report a bug
[13:28] <Ateist> I'm new in linux, how can i  calibrate a driver?
[13:28] <houserockr> Ateist: what device are we talking about?
[13:29] <Ateist> cypherlab 1070
[13:29] <Ateist> cipherlab 1070
[13:31] <steve__> ActionParsnip, I think I did the right thing about webipd8, but it doesn't work.  Should I have added ppa somewhere in the repo setup?
[13:31] <houserockr> Ateist: I couldn't even find linux support on the manufacturer's website
[13:32] <steve__> brb
[13:32] <houserockr> Ateist: how did you perform a scan?
[13:33] <Ateist> I open leafpad, and try to scan a coca-colas barcode usind the device.
[13:34] <ilhami> Guys
[13:34] <ilhami> your OS is giving me problems
[13:34] <ilhami> really big problems
[13:34] <Guest69735> where is the default folder for sharing file via bluetooth?  I sent some images from  my phone and not sure where they went
[13:35] <houserockr> Ateist: have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BarcodeReaders ?
[13:35] <ilhami> can anyone assist me ?
[13:35] <cfhowlett> ilhami, that resounding silence is us waiting for you to state the actual issue so we might be able to assist.  ms. cleo has the night off, so be comprehensive in your description.
[13:36] <ilhami> I am trying to install ruby and rubygems but encounters errors all the time.
[13:36] <ilhami> It won't let me install rubygems.
[13:37] <cfhowlett> ilhami, "errors" = ???
[13:37] <ilhami> 2 sec.

[13:37] <ilhami> https://dpaste.de/FG3b
[13:37] <ilhami> :D don't worry . I got it.
[13:37] <Ateist> houserockr: Idid, I tried sudo modprobe usbkbd, But no success
[13:37] <ilhami> My goal is to install jekyll btw.
[13:38] <cfhowlett> !info jekyll
[13:38] <ilhami> yeah I tried that.. didn't work. Let me try again. :)
[13:39] <ianorlin> if I have / on an ssd and /home on an hdd and I run sudo fstrim / does that end up running fstrim on my hdd?
[13:39] <ilhami> 2 sec.
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> ianorlin: trim wont work on platter based drives
[13:39] <cfhowlett> ilhami, from terminal: sudo apt-get install jekyll                     and report issues
[13:40] <houserockr> Ateist: I just read that usbkbd is deprecated
[13:40] <ilhami> https://dpaste.de/SWxh
[13:40] <ilhami> same error cfhowlett
[13:40] <houserockr> Ateist: if you do a lsusb on the console, do you see the device?
[13:41] <cfhowlett> ilhami, OK, try this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:41] <ianorlin> but will running fstrim on / in this setup damage anything or it will just ignore that there is a platter at /home
[13:41] <cfhowlett> ilhami, followed up jekyll installation
[13:41] <jotik> Hi! The Ubuntu mini CD is signed with 437D05B5 (fingerprint 6302 39CC 130E 1A7F D81A 27B1 4097 6EAF 437D 05B5) and C0B21F32 (fingerprint 790B C727 7767 219C 42C8 6F93 3B4F E6AC C0B2 1F32). Are these official Ubuntu GPG keys?
[13:41] <Ateist> I did dmesg | grep usb

[13:42] <Ateist> and got vendorid:0745, deviceid:0000
[13:42] <ilhami> cfhowlett, same problem.
[13:43] <cfhowlett> ilhami, ... grrr
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> steve__: what is the output of: cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list

[13:43] <Ateist> lsusb answer:   bus002, device003: Id 0745: 0000 Syntech information co; ltd
[13:43] <ilhami> mgolisch, I tried but it didn't work. :D
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> !find gem1.8
[13:44] <steve__> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8492882/
[13:44] <ilhami> haha  I messed something up for sure :D
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: what is the output of: ls /usr/bin/gem*
[13:44] <ilhami> I will be back in 5-10 minutes. I am sorry guys. I will hurry.
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> steve__: why are you adding lines manually to sources.list? Remove those lines dude
[13:45] <steve__> ActionParsnip, Which lines?  I am a bit of a nOOb at this
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> steve__:  the last 2 lines you added for webupd8, didnt you?
[13:47] <steve__> ActionParsnip, I thought you suggested that I add webupd8 to solve my java and flash problems
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> steve__: then you are pro enough to know what you did, so "bit of a nOOb" doesnt mean anything here, that PPA is also for themes. Did you even read what you added!?
[13:48] <steve__> I thought that I had copied what I had read when I looked for webupd8
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> steve__: delete the lines you added then save the new file and follow this guide
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> steve__: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> steve__: its 3 commands, done. Lots of guides have this easy solution. Use TAB and ENTER to accept the licemse
[13:51] <steve__> ActionParsnip, Wish me luck.  I think I did a bad thing when I removed java with the intention to re-install it ... before I came to the room.  Brb once I get around to following your instructions
[13:52] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, /usr/bin/gem1.9.1
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: ok, run: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem1.9.1 /usr/bin/gem1.8
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: then retry
[13:55] <ilhami> I think that actually worked :D
[13:55] <ilhami> what a genius haha
[13:55] <ilhami> let me see if jekyll works now.
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: if it works, please report a bug stating that a symlink is needed
[13:57] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, when I run this command: "jekyll new myblog"  I get this error.
[13:57] <ilhami> https://dpaste.de/RFTM
[13:57] <ilhami> I am following the guidelines on their site btw.
[13:57] <ilhami> http://jekyllrb.com/docs/quickstart/
[13:59] <rebs> so ive now spent like 3 hours trying to get an internal drive to automount on startup. am i being daft and there is some really easy way to do this? whenever i edit fstab i get mounting errors on startup, but if i let automount do its thing, the disk works just doesnt autoload on startup
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: not something I use, maybe the symlink isn't enough of a fix. Are there any bugs reported. If not please report one
[14:00] <ianorlin> this is why you make a backup of fstab before editing it so you can restore from backups
[14:01] <rebs> its only one line i changed...
[14:01] <rebs> i had recently formattted the drive i was starting from square one
[14:02] <yahyaa> can anyone suggest a very good easy to use backup utility for kubuntu or Ubuntu!
[14:03] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, I think the version of jekyll I have is old.
[14:03] <Wulframn> rebs: what kind of drive is it and let's see a paste of that fstab for starters.
[14:03] <azizLIGHT> when will CVE-2014-6277 be patch
[14:03] <aaruni|osx> support for OSX | Ubuntu dual boot also provided here?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: maybe, but the one from the repos should work with the other packages
[14:04] <Wulframn> aaruni|osx: for the ubuntu part, yes
[14:05] <aaruni|osx> Wulframn: can I just get a new partition, install Ubuntu precise along with OSX, and expect it to mutli-boot properly?
[14:05] <rebs> its a newly formatted / patrtitioned ext4 drive Wulframn :  /dev/sdb1 /media/data ext4 defaults 0 1
[14:06] <Wulframn> aaruni|osx: they need their own, separate positions. If you install ubuntu after OSX it should dual boot smoothly.
[14:06] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, I have version 0.11.2.. there is version 2.4.0
[14:06] <ilhami> hahaha
[14:06] <OerHeks> azizLIGHT, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-2014-6277.html "we don't consider this to be
[14:06] <OerHeks> mdeslaur> a critical issue requiring immediate attention."
[14:07] <azizLIGHT> ...
[14:07] <aaruni|osx> Wulframn: no need for anything like rEFIt ?
[14:07] <azizLIGHT> OerHeks: thanks for looking that up
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: may be able to find a PPA
[14:07] <OerHeks> yw
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | ilhami
[14:07] <Wulframn> aaruni|osx: I don't use OSX so I am uncertain. I'll double check what resources I can and you can always ask the room in general in the meantime.
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: I suggest you report a bug if the version in the repo is dead
[14:08] <aaruni|osx> ActionParsnip: have any idea on my issue?
[14:08] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, never reported a bug before.. haha I will also need to learn that.
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: I don't use Apple garbage, sorry
[14:08] <aaruni|osx> hmm
[14:09] <nevermoreraven2> no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> ilhami: ubuntu-bug packagename
[14:09] <nevermoreraven2> how do I solve that problem??? ^^^

[14:09] <jotik> Hi! The Ubuntu mini CD is signed with 437D05B5 (fingerprint 6302 39CC 130E 1A7F D81A 27B1 4097 6EAF 437D 05B5) and C0B21F32 (fingerprint 790B C727 7767 219C 42C8 6F93 3B4F E6AC C0B2 1F32). Are these official Ubuntu GPG keys?
[14:09] <nevermoreraven2> no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory
[14:09] <Wulframn> aaruni|osx: it's not personal. :-P
[14:09] <nevermoreraven2> how do I solve that problem??? ^^^
[14:09] <OerHeks> aaruni|osx, maybe the mactelpages are any help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages  i do not use mac either
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> !hashes | jotik
[14:10] <aaruni|osx> Wulframn: I have a similar reaction to mac. Setting up buntu and OSX for sister.
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: could use virtualbox
[14:10] <aaruni|osx> OerHeks: Some pages say to use rEFIt, some don't
[14:10] <aaruni|osx> hence the confusion
[14:10] <jotik> ActionParsnip: no info there about mini ISO nor GPG signatures.
[14:11] <aaruni|osx> ActionParsnip: on 2GB ram in today's world?
[14:11] <ilhami> ActionParsnip, should I update this manually then?
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: sure, use Lubuntu. My VM at work uses about 256Mb
[14:12] <aaruni|osx> ActionParsnip: but not OSX. Ram usage is always at 1.99GB
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: sounds like a great OS, yikes
[14:12] <Wulframn> aaruni|osx: seriously?
[14:12] <aaruni|osx> Wulframn: yes. its too bloaty
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: could install ubuntu to usb and boot that when you want to use ubuntu, shove it in
[14:13] <Wulframn> that's a great idea
[14:13] <OerHeks> jotik, md5sums are here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[14:14] <Wulframn> then the OSX behemoth isn't chugging all the RAM
[14:14] <Glycan> Hi, I'm trying to recover file and hopefully fix a Lubuntu system. I try to boot Knoppix off a flash key and it fails saying: "/init: line 975: mount: not found" twice, then "/init: exec: line 1033: /sbin/init: Input/output error". What chan should I go to?
[14:14] <OerHeks> ans SHA1
[14:14] <aaruni|osx> ActionParsnip: not phor me, mate
[14:14] <aaruni|osx> its for nub sister
[14:16] <jotik> OerHeks: ok, but GPG the keys?
[14:16] <confusedDev> looking for someone willing to guide a confused software dev through the world of wireless networking in linux (setting up home pc with a (NETGEAR) wnda3100 => ubuntu 14.4 (tahr) I have ndis and installed drivers...issue is with signal strength 0 / power light off on the wireless adapter pls pm if you can help
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> aaruni|osx: isnt MacOS doing what is needed?
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: recover what file?
[14:17] <OerHeks> jotic those keys are not GPG are they ?
[14:17] <aaruni|osx> ActionParsnip: she likes Ubuntu from my ubuntu box. and OSX is too resource hungry
[14:17] <Glycan> ActionParsnip: my music library, my notes, my projects...
[14:18] <Glycan> s/file/my files/g
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: is there not a backup?
[14:18] <Glycan> not an external one, no
[14:18] <Glycan> well, not for certain things, anyway
[14:18] <Glycan> Normally booting my Lubuntu system says something about I/O errors, falls into fsck, which raises a bunch more errors that I do not understand "failed command: READ DMA.... error: { UNC }", ending with "fsck / [275] terminated with status 4"
[14:19] <jotik> OerHeks: I need to know what are the proper keys used to sign http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/SHA256SUMS.gpg and the like. These seem to use different keys than used for normal Ubuntu releases.
[14:19] <ses> Hi
[14:19] <ses> Can anyone help?
[14:20] <Guest81363> I reseted my MBR how can i now again boot into Linux. Im dual bootin with ubunut and win7
[14:20] <ilhami> "never ever make install as root" why?
[14:20] <jotik> ses: Maybe. Please just ask your question.
[14:20] <Glycan> ~Can, uh, someone help me or at leas ttell me where to go?
[14:21] <jotik> Glycan: SATA disks with cables? Faulty cable perhaps?
[14:21] <Guest81363> Im not geetin the boot options.Im not gettin Grub anymore.
[14:21] <jotik> Guest81363: booting directly to Windows now?
[14:22] <Glycan> jotik: huh? this is just a kinda old laptop
[14:22] <Guest81363> Yes im bootin directly to WIN now. Thing is i couldnt boot to win7 and reseted the boot with TOOL DISK. Now i dont get grub.
[14:22] <jotik> Glycan: Such errors usually mean a faulty hard drive or cable or the like.
[14:23] <jotik> sry all, got to run now.
[14:23] <Guest81363> Can anyone help about that?
[14:24] <Glycan> yeah, I'm assuming I screwed up my HDD somehow. I was kinda hoping someone would explain how to get fsck to run properly enough to fix whatever the problem is
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: why not?
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: what if the drive IDE or moror failed, where is your data?
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: cant be very important
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: think about it...for once
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: heres what you are basically asking "I didnt think to backup my data and now I need you guys to dig me out of this easily avoidable situation. A usb hdd of a few hundred gigabytes cost pennies but I didnt bother. Can you please help"
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: boot the the ubunu livecd an mount your partition then copy data to an exteenal storage. You now have a backup. Reinstall the OS and restore the backup
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Guest81363: you can reinstall Grub to the MBR from Ubuntu live Cd
[14:24] <Alpy> okay i am getting this error message on the terminal ' Unterminated quoted string' on the terminal, how i solve it?
[14:24] <Guest81363> With what Guest 813.
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: use liveCd. Bit easier
[14:24] <Alpy> *how do i solve it?
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> Alpy: is it when you first launch the terminal?
[14:25] <unopaste> ActionParsnip you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[14:26] <OerHeks> jotic i think you look at the wrong place for gpg/md5sum
[14:26] <OerHeks> jotic https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD and compare it with the output of md5sum mini.iso
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: once you have restored the data to the new install every now and then, make another copy of the same data and any new data in the same location.  If the data changes a lot do this every few days. If it changes rarely do it once a week
[14:26] <Glycan> ActionParsnip: all of my actually critical stuff is online anyway; this is out of nostaliga. A live USB doesn't work. Booting in recovery mode, I can not mount the partition. I cannot boot into a live USB to reinstall. I would also really like to fix that computer.
[14:27] <Alpy> ActionParsnip no. I have this .iso file that i mounted using fuseiso. When i ran the install file in it gives me that error message.
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Alpy: oh god not wubi
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Alpy: wubi has not been developed for 2 years and is abandoned
[14:28] <Alpy> ActionParsnip what is wubi?
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: liveCD will allow you to fsck the partition which may resolve the issue
[14:28] <cfhowlett> Alpy, wubi is the wu tang clan of ubuntu
[14:28] <Glycan> Why would a liveCD would if a live USB doesn't?
[14:28] <Alpy> okay?
[14:29] <Glycan> Alpy: as far as I remember it's a way to install ubuntu into a partition directly from windows
[14:29] <Alpy> I'll be honest, i am trying to install Matlab a cracked matlab
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Alpy: when you run the installer in Windows for Ubuntu, its a dead application called Wubi. You don't need fuseiso or anything like that, you need unetbootin to make a bootable USB device or to burn the image to CD
[14:29] <cfhowlett> Alpy, on help for piracy = ask elsewhere
[14:30] <Alpy> cfhowlett okay, but where?
[14:30] <cfhowlett> Alpy, no idea
[14:30] <Alpy> Thanks anyways
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: the usb and cd methods are the same difference.  Lunux sees them as  file systems, the physical media is moot
[14:31] <energies23423> anyone here familiar with disabling UEFI on a Windows 8 PC so I can install Ubuntu and have GRUB load up?
[14:31] <loa> hello, i have file /usr/share/alsa/pulse-alsa.conf , which contains code which i don't need in my installation i need something like this in .asoundrc http://pastebin.com/z03igJak how i can get this work? What is right way? I need remove that file or what?
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: the fact your system wont boot cd or usb implies there is a larger issue than the install. Did you try resetting your bios to defaults
[14:32] <loa> Now i just renamed that file, but i am interest if that file will reappear after system upgrade for example?
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: if you wanted to reinstall any OS it wont be possible, even if you wanted to wipe all data and reinstall
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> loa: searh for it in packages.ubuntu.com
[14:33] <Alpy> okay, i give up piracy. Are there any alternatives to matlab?
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> !matlab
[14:34] <cfhowlett> Alpy, there was one listed on the ossalt site - wait 1
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Alpy: not sure, could just buy matlab....
[14:34] <loa> ActionParsnip, it is pulseaudio package. so?
[14:34] <Glycan> It pretty clearly says that there are errors on the hard drive, but fsck fails to fix them. How is this releated the BIOS?
[14:34] <Glycan> And yes, I've realized that
[14:34] <cfhowlett> Alpy, "octave"
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: the bios boots the chosen device with he hardware settings, so it releates. Its worth a try....
[14:35] <Alpy> cfhowlett i tried to work with octave, it doesn't let me compile some stuff
[14:35] <Glycan> Um, I missed a message if anyone was writing to me
[14:35] <cfhowlett> Alpy, xcos
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: the bios boots the chosen device with the settings in the bios setting how things work. Its worth a go
[14:36] <cfhowlett> Alpy, read the suggestions in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=700767
[14:36] <meadhikari> Hi guys, I installed tightvncserver how do I allow multiple user login, please help
[14:37] <cfhowlett> Alpy, old link, I know.  sorry
[14:37] <cfhowlett> Alpy, http://www.wseas.us/e-library/conferences/2012/Vouliagmeni/EDUCIT/EDUCIT-19.pdf
[14:37] <Glycan> ActionParsnip: the boot progress successfully gets past GRUB and everything. If there was a problem with the BIOS settings that wouldn't of worked...
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: what are they connecting to do?
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: then why can ypu not boot usb?
[14:38] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, xfce4, currently only root can connect but I want other user to be able to go to their own desktop
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: are the clients Linux based or Windows?
[14:39] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, Linux based using vncviewer
[14:39] <Glycan> I can boot it - I get past the unetbootin bootloader and see the Knoppix startup screen and all - it just doesn't work past that
[14:39] <cfhowlett> Glycan, knoppix?  what the hey?
[14:39] <ikonia> ?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: ok and what would the users doing when they get connected to the server?
[14:40] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, their own session
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: tried the Ubuntu liveCD?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: yes, what will they do in that session?
[14:40] <Glycan> cfhowlett: a specicially live system that I like a lot...
[14:40] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, They would use the GUI
[14:41] <cfhowlett> Glycan, no problem but .. you'd be happier and get support in knoppix channels. not supported here.
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: yes to achieve what? Web browse? Manage files?
[14:41] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, yes their own individual x session
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: you arent answering he question
[14:42] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, I found a json like config for each user but where would I write that I am really confused, Please help
[14:42] <Glycan> cfhowlett: knoppix chans are completely dead, but this isn't about knoppix not working, this is about not getting into an lubuntu install and fsck not working. Knoppix is a tool I've tried to solve this problem
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: im after the specific hings they will do once they get connected via vnc
[14:42] <cfhowlett> Glycan, noted
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: does the ubuntu livecd boot ok?
[14:42] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, I currently have no idea on what they would be using apart from normal GUI stuffs
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: they have thinhs on their client systems, surely?
[14:43] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, why would what gui app they use matter, I am confused
[14:43] <Glycan> I've never had an ubuntu livecd
[14:43] <Glycan> I don't really have CDs
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: then how did you install ubuntu?
[14:43] <helpMe> hello guys!
[14:43] <helpMe> good morning!
[14:44] <Guest7623> need help
[14:44] <Guest7623> i have ubuntu 14.04 precise
[14:44] <Guest7623> w/ unity
[14:44] <ashley01> Is daftykins here? I managed to fix my problem earlier!
[14:44] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, I was looking for some config so that each user could login to their own x-session with ip:<different number>
[14:44] <Glycan> ActionParsnip: usb
[14:44] <Guest7623> and i'm trying to set up a VPN connection
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: because people use vnc for all sorts of stupid crap and when they actually tell me what they are doing there is usually a faster and more secure option to what they are using vnc to achieve
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> Glycan: ok does the ubuntu livenusb boot ok?
[14:45] <Guest7623> but the input fields are greyed out
[14:45] <astroduck> Hi! I was trying to zip a folder without compression using `zip -r -0 foo.zop foo` but du gives different size for the zip and the folder (https://dpaste.de/At4A). Why's that so?
[14:45] <Guest7623> and i've searched the web
[14:45] <Guest7623> and it seems its a pretty common issue
[14:45] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, in this case I really need as I don't know the application but just assigned to do it
[14:45] <Guest7623> anyone familiar w/ this problem
[14:45] <Guest7623> or can help me
[14:45] <Glycan> No idea, I guess I'll go try to find one
[14:45] <Guest7623> been at it for couple of days already
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: you can use ssh with x forwarding. If you configure ssh keys you can have a shortcut to run: ssh user@server firefox
[14:46] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, I found a json like config file where u write config for each user with different port number but where would i write that. Please help
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> meaning: the GUI will show on the client but be running on the server,  just like how citrix works
[14:46] <ashley01> ok guys, I managed to solve a graphical problem I had with OpenTTD by completely disabling vsync. But now I am still stuck with another problem to do with the game's music not playing.
[14:46] <Guest7623> help with network manager
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest7367: what is wrong with network manager
[14:47] <Guest7623> for one
[14:47] <ashley01> the game uses MIDI files for music and I have timidity installed
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> ashley01: I believe you need the files from the original game
[14:47] <Guest7623> i don't get the network icon on the top bar
[14:47] <Guest7623> and also
[14:47] <Guest7623> when i try to set up
[14:47] <Guest7623> a vpn connection
[14:47] <Guest7623> the fields are greyed out
[14:47] <ashley01> ActionParsnip: there are alternatives: openmsx and modern motion
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest7623: please press entee less, you are scrolling the channel
[14:47] <ashley01> I have downloaded the files but they are not being played
[14:48] <Guest7623> im sorry, could you explain, don't know what you mean
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> ashley01: did you put them in the right folder and are they readable by all
[14:48] <ashley01> the game does it for me because it has a 'download content' option ingame
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest7623: this isnt IM. Imagine if everyone hammered enter after every other word. It wold make the channel unusab
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> Le
[14:49] <Guest7623> ooh, ok sorry guys
[14:49] <meadhikari> ActionParsnip, using vnc is my requirement currently :( you have any idea about json config
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> ashley01: I thought it would be from the original game files, its how I did it
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> meadhikari: its a horrible solution. No idea sorry
