[12:53] <theadmin> roadkill: Selecting LXDE Desktop in the netinstll basically equals Lubuntu without extra packages
[12:53] <theadmin> roadkill: Worked fine for me, idk
[12:53] <dmavroid> adamk: sorry for that . here is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738660/
[12:53] <Town> ok how do upgrade?
[12:53] <roadkill> theadmin: His case is a little special. He's missing drivers on top of his existing issues.
[12:54] <JR198> roadkill: To do that I need to install Grub first?
[12:54] <Town> hey?
[12:54] <Town> distro upgrade
[12:54] <adamk_> dmavroid, You don't have the fglrx drivers installed at all, but you have managed to disable KMS and prevented the open source drivers from working.
[12:54] <roadkill> JR198: It's a mini iso, so you could burn another CD if you want.
[12:55] <roadkill> JR198: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[12:55] <adamk_> dmavroid, In addition, this is a laptop with hybrid graphics.  Getting the AMD GPU to work at all is hit or miss.
[12:55] <dmavroid> adamk: so what can i do?
[12:55] <Town> sudo apt-get upgrade  not work
[12:56] <dmavroid> adamk: when i am installing the fglrx drivers i cannot see my unity
[12:56] <adamk_> dmavroid, Well you can install fglrx.  I believe that's what you were attempting earlier, right?
[12:56] <dmavroid> adamk: yeap
[12:56] <adamk_> dmavroid, So you removed fglrx?
[12:56] <dmavroid> adamk: yeap
[12:56] <theadmin> Town: sudo do-release-upgrade is the command for upgrading to the next Ubuntu version
[12:57] <Town> yes I found
[12:57] <dmavroid> adamk: is there any chance i can make my system work properly?
[12:57] <auronandace> !13.10 | Town
[12:57] <Town> but there no new version
[12:57] <auronandace> Town: 13.04 is the latest
[12:58] <Town> u can said to developers about this bug please
[12:58] <Town> ?
[12:58] <Ben64> there is no bug
[12:58] <Town> how no bug?
[12:58] <Town> i installed headers
[12:58] <Ben64> you're trying to do something that is unsupported
[12:58] <Town> but have not files
[12:58] <Ben64> how would that be ubuntu's fault
[12:58] <Town> Ben what not supported?
[12:59] <Ben64> installing from nvidia.com
[12:59] <Town> fak
[12:59] <Town> I always do it
[12:59] <Ben64> i've told you this
[12:59] <Town> all work
[12:59] <adamk_> dmavroid, Well to figure out what went wrong when you were using fglrx, we need to see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from when you have fglrx installed.
[12:59] <Ben64> Town: you have three options. 1. install 12.04 and use the 96 driver in the repo. 2. use the open source driver in 13.04. 3. figure it out yourself, we CAN NOT help you with nvidia.com drivers
[13:00] <Town> i need help with UBUNTU
[13:00] <auronandace> Town: just because you always do something doesn't make it supported here
[13:00] <Town> i installed this driver on<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[13:00] <Town> 12.10
[13:00] <adamk_> dmavroid, How did you install fglrx?
[13:00] <Town> i installed it on bodhi and cranch
[13:00] <JR198> roadkill: have you run off yet lol
[13:00] <Town> and other
[13:00] <Town> ewerywhere all work
[13:00] <Town> every
[13:00] <Ben64> doesn't matter, still not supported here
[13:00] <roadkill> JR198: PLEASE tell me something different happened ;)
[13:00] <dmavroid> adamk: i went to additional drivers and selected fglrx option. but i downloaded the drivers from the ATI site as well. nothing worked
[13:01] <Town> ok
[13:01] <Town> maybe in  13.10 bug will fixed
[13:01] <Ben64> not a bug
[13:01] <Kartagis> why can't anyone access my shares? they get permission denied. I'm using 13.04
[13:01] <JR198> roadkill: I'm in the installer, one sec ;)
[13:01] <dmavroid> adamk: i am fighting over that problem for 5 days now. i am desperate...
[13:01] <Town> Ben everywhere work in old Ubuntu work its bug
[13:01] <adamk_> dmavroid, Well if you want help getting fglrx working (assuming it's even possible to get it to work, which may not be the case), you'll need to reinstall fglrx and pastebin the Xorg log file.
[13:02] <Ben64> Town: its from nvidia.com, not supported
[13:02] <Town> u adequte?
[13:02] <Town> stop repite it
[13:02] <dmavroid> adamk: so i am installing the driver and be back online. please be online :S
[13:02] <Town> thanks to all for help
[13:02] <Ben64> Town: you stop repeating then. no matter how many times you try, it still won't be supported here
[13:02] <adamk_> dmavroid, BTW, only installing the driver from Additional Drivers is actually supported.
[13:03] <Town> go to doctor ben please
[13:03] <Town> bb to all
[13:04] <imgx64> Is there a way to read an encrypted home folder from a live CD?
[13:04] <JR198> roadkill: It's telling my that my network isn't using the DHCP protocol o_O
[13:04] <jrib>  !encrypt | imgx64
[13:04] <roadkill> JR198: Oof...
[13:04] <jrib> imgx64: there are instructions either on that wiki page or linked from there
[13:05] <JR198> roadkill: No other computer in the office has a problem connecting, Windows, OSX, Ubuntu, iOS, Android... so I don't know why it's saying that :*
[13:05] <JR198> :(*
[13:06] <roadkill> JR198: I still have to wonder if it's more of a kernel issue but 13.04 behaving the same way kind of makes me doubt that.
[13:07] <JR198> roadkill: I just tried the installer again and it comes up with an error: Error while running 'modprobe -v usb-storage'
[13:07] <minniee12> help
[13:08] <roadkill> JR198: You have any usb drives plugged into your laptop?
[13:09] <JR198> roadkill: No. I decided to continue anyway,  configured my network, location etc but now I have a black screen a white bar going across the bottom.
[13:09] <dmavroid> adamk: are still online?
[13:10] <roadkill> ouch
[13:10] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[13:10] <roadkill> JR198: That white screen is normal. Hope it keeps going.
[13:13] <rooted> when i goto to ubuntu apt source on web to download java 7 development , it doesnot download the package
[13:13] <rooted> can i install java devlopment kit via apt-get ?
[13:13] <dmavroid> adamk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738704/
[13:13] <dmavroid> adamk: are you there?
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> JR198: the P in DHCP stands for proocol ;)
[13:14] <Znoosey> rooted, sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
[13:15] <adamk_> dmavroid, Your Xorg log file shows that you aren't even attempting to load the fglrx driver.  Run 'sudo aticonfig --initial' and then restart X.

[13:15] <abhi_> Hi there everyone.  I have a PDF file with PFX certificate and a key to open that PFX cert file. Please guide me step by step to install the certificate so that i can view the PDF file in my Ubuntu. PLease help...
[13:16] <dmavroid> adamk_: aticonfig: No supported adapters detected this is what i get when hitting the command
[13:17] <KikaRz> Hello. Yesterday I came here to try to find a way to fix WUBI
[13:17] <adamk_> dmavroid, You may be out of luck using the AMD GPU, then. You *could* try a newer version of fglrx directly from AMD, but that's not supported, and not something I'd recommend.
[13:17] <KikaRz> Today, i'm here to ask you something...
[13:17] <ska> Is it possible to run Xorg without dbus?
[13:18] <KikaRz> Should I buy this DVD-R pack? http://www.worten.pt/store/inicio/informatica/armazenamento/magneticos/dvd-r-sony-spindle-16x-4-7gb.html
[13:18] <dmavroid> adamk_: so there is no hope? should i reinstall windows instead of ubuntu?
[13:18] <minniee90> hello
[13:18] <alericoveri> hello
[13:18] <adamk_> dmavroid, Well you can always use the Intel GPU.
[13:19] <abhi_>  Can anyone help me ?
[13:19] <ska> How do I fix dbus as a user if it dies or is killed?
[13:19] <SonikkuAmerica> !anyone | abhi_
[13:19] <dmavroid> adamk_: my cpu is overheated up to 95degrees when using xorg server option
[13:19] <SonikkuAmerica> !ot | KikaRz
[13:19] <adamk_> dmavroid, You can disable the AMD GPU: http://planetoss.com/articles/how-to-disable-the-discrete-amd-graphics-card-in-linux/
[13:20] <KikaRz> That's why I want support
[13:20] <KikaRz> this isn't offtopic
[13:20] <KikaRz> I don't have any DVDs, Pen Drives, Diskettes or CD Roms to use to install Ubuntu
[13:20] <dmavroid> adamk_: what is i install an older version of ubuntu? will i have any more luck?
[13:20] <theadmin> KikaRz: Anything will work
[13:20] <KikaRz> So, I wanted a tip. -.-' | Should I buy those DVD Pack? http://www.worten.pt/store/inicio/informatica/armazenamento/magneticos/dvd-r-sony-spindle-16x-4-7gb.html
[13:20] <KikaRz> theadmin, WUBI don't work
[13:20] <adamk_> dmavroid, No, you will not have more luck with that.
[13:21] <theadmin> KikaRz: You can also boot the ISO directly if you have GRUB2 or, in Windows, EasyBCD
[13:21] <theadmin> KikaRz: Yeah wubi's broke
[13:21] <KikaRz> How?
[13:21] <KikaRz> o_o'
[13:21] <dmavroid> adamk_: even with linux mint?
[13:22] <KikaRz> theadmin, how I can boot directly?
[13:22] <theadmin> KikaRz: Well in EasyBCD it's a simple point-and-click kinda thing, I can't remember tho because I rarely run Windows
[13:22] <adamk_> dmavroid, The only thing that might work is a newer driver, if there is a newer version available from AMD.  Alternatively, you can disable the AMD GPU like I said, and just use the intel GPU.
[13:22] <KikaRz> Cool!
[13:22] <KikaRz> I'll try. See ya later
[13:22] <KikaRz> And wait... We can use for dual boot?
[13:22] <theadmin> KikaRz: It'll just boot the LiveCD so it won't save changes, but you can install from there on later
[13:23] <KikaRz> I want to install into my computer, but with dual boot
[13:23] <KikaRz> for in-case of something gets wrong
[13:23] <dmavroid> adamk_: i currently installed fglrx driver but there is another option called fglrx-updates. should i try that as well and send you the log file again?
[13:23] <abhi_> Hi there everyone.  I have a PDF file with PFX certificate and a key to open that PFX cert file. Please guide me step by step to install the certificate so that i can view the PDF file in my Ubuntu. PLease help...
[13:23] <theadmin> KikaRz: Sure, is of easy: choose language, click "Install Ubuntu" and "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows", decide how much space you want to give to each OS, click "Install now" and done
[13:23] <KikaRz> Thank you theadmin
[13:23] <abhi_> I log into my ubuntu 13.04 and click on the PFX file. It (CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_CURRENT_USER_My_0_Pushpendra.pfx) says The contents of 'CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_CURRENT_USER_My_0_Pushpendra.pfx' are locked. In order to view the contents, enter the correct password.. I enter the password for the PFX key  and click "Ulock" . I dont have any idea as to what to do next. PLEASE HELP HELP HELP...
[13:24] <SonikkuAmerica> !mint
[13:24] <SonikkuAmerica> !um
[13:24] <KikaRz> I'll need to uninstall WUBI, right?
[13:24] <theadmin> KikaRz: Yes, is of good idea
[13:24] <adamk_> dmavroid, I *believe* fglrx-updates should be a newer version.  There is no guarantee it will work, but you can try.
[13:24] <KikaRz> And we just need to download Ubuntu 12.04.2 iso and put in there?
[13:24] <dmavroid> adamk_: i will let you know
[13:24] <dmavroid> adamk_: soon
[13:24] <MonkeyDust> KikaRz  and ritually burn it in a bonfire
[13:25] <KikaRz> MonkeyDust: I don't have any DVDs, Pen Drives, CD-R, or any other method to install
[13:25] <pilsa> hi ... the applet icons in my gnome panel are seperated by too much empty space. i'd like to arrange more tightly. but how?
[13:26] <jrv1> hi
[13:26] <cfhowlett> jrv1, greetings
[13:26] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: The old one or the new one?
[13:27] <pilsa> SonikkuAmerica: gnome classic
[13:28] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: Is this 12.04?
[13:28] <pilsa> yes
[13:28] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: OK. (If it were 13.04 we'd be taliking the new fallback, that's why I asked.)
[13:28] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: Use Alt+Super+right click to access the function menu.
[13:28] <pilsa> ok
[13:29] <abhi_> where can i get info on opening the encrypted pdf's in ubuntu ?
[13:29] <pilsa> and then ...?
[13:29] <adamk_> abhi_, Have you tried Adobe Reader?
[13:29] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: Remember the old GNOME 2 function menu and such? It'll appear. Select "move" and mess around with it.
[13:29] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: If "Lock to Panel" is checked, clear its check box
[13:30] <poee> Hii I am having troubles making a startup usb disk. whats the other package for it
[13:30] <johnn> Anyone have experience with wireless cards?  I can't get Ubuntu 12.04 to recognize mine.
[13:30] <cfhowlett> poee, startup disk creator or unetbootin
[13:31] <cfhowlett> johnn, broadcom?
[13:31] <abhi_> yes i have installed the adobe reader . But when i open the encrtypted file it says the pdf is encrypted. PLease help me to open this encrypted pdf file.
[13:31] <johnn> Ralink
[13:31] <SonikkuAmerica> poee: dd also works, but use with caution.
[13:31] <usr13_> pilsa: From:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1975064  "In gnome classic you must press both the Alt & Super keys at the same time while right-clicking on the panel/applet you wish to edit, move, or remove. (The Super key is typically the one with the Windows logo). In gnome classic (no effects) you must now hold down either Alt key while right-clicking on a panel or applet to be able to edit panel preferences or to add/edit/move/remove more applets.
[13:31] <cfhowlett> abhi_, encrypted?  and you have the key?
[13:32] <poee> i am getting this error [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/media/KINGSTON/.disk/\x14.\xc3\x86\x01n' while using usb-creator-gtk
[13:32] <abhi_> yes i have a key and a pfx certificate. Its easy in win7 but i dont know how to in ubuntu.
[13:32] <pilsa> SonikkuAmerica, only a few of the applet icons have a "move" option, e.g. i cant move "sound" .... besides, moving changes only the order of the icons but not the spacing between them
[13:32] <usr13_> poee: Is it read-only?
[13:33] <poee> no, i can definitely copy files to it
[13:33] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: "sound" is part of the "Notification Area"
[13:33] <johnn> cfhowlett, Ralink
[13:33] <poee> usr13_,  no, i can definitely copy files to it
[13:34] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: Or "Indicator Applet" (I'm not sure what it's called, I'm using Solaris with GNOME 2 right now)
[13:34] <cfhowlett> johnn, sorry. ask in channel.  I've only ever done Broadcom.
[13:34] <pilsa> SonnikkuAmerica ... correct , how can i change icon spacing within the notification area?
[13:34] <johnn> cfhowlett, Thanks!
[13:34] <ska> What is the best way for a user to restart dbus??????
[13:35] <poee> well unetbootin solved it. thanks
[13:35] <pilsa> SonnikkuAmerica ... besides, recently i have a stupid xchat icon in the notification area whenever i run xchat ... it never used to be like that ... how can i stop this behaviour?
[13:35] <usr13_> poee: What version of Ubuntu?
[13:35] <dmavroid> adamk_: i experienced something strange but here is the log file http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738754/
[13:35] <poee> 12.04
[13:35] <usr13_> poee: ok, never mind... you got it.
[13:36] <poee> yeah
[13:36] <poee> :)
[13:36] <johnn> Anyone have experience installing a ralink wireless card?
[13:36] <dmavroid> adamk_: please give me good news
[13:36] <angs> when I use syslog, where does it keep the logs?
[13:37] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: You can't change icon spacing in the Notification Area... it's hard-coded like that.
[13:37] <utfans05> angs: it should be in /var/log
[13:37] <adamk_> dmavroid, Did you run 'sudo aticonfig --initial' ?
[13:37] <dmavroid> adamk_: yes and worked fine(i suppose)
[13:37] <adamk_> dmavroid, Pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[13:37] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: You can drop the XChat icon by going to Settings > Preferences > Alerts tab and unchecking the "Enable system tray icon" box and clicking OK
[13:38] <dmavroid> adamk_: bash: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[13:38] <angs> utfans05, I check the files under /var/log directory, but could not locate the log files. I call the function like this:     openlog("ubungu-log ", LOG_PID|LOG_CONS|LOG_PERROR, LOG_USER);    syslog(LOG_INFO, "hello ");    closelog(); what log file do I need to check?
[13:39] <adamk_> dmavroid, Rerun 'sudo aticonfig --initial' again and pastebin the output of the command.
[13:39] <angs> Furthermore, how is it possible create a new log file on /var/log? e.g. /var/log/mylogs.log ?
[13:39] <pilsa> SonnikkuAmerica ... thank you, but there is no "Alerts" tab
[13:39] <abhi_> I know my question must be silly for all the ubuntu community. But atleast some one can try helping me open my encrypted PDF.
[13:40] <dmavroid> adamk_: since i cannot see my unity can i please send you the output in PM?
[13:41] <utfans05> angs: try running that syslog command with a -d behind it, it should show you where its going
[13:41] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: It's under "General"
[13:41] <SonikkuAmerica> pilsa: Excuse me, "Interface"
[13:42] <usr13_> !pastebinit | dmavroid
[13:42] <angs> utfans05: I call that function by a C program, where do I suppose to add -d?
[13:42] <gothpaw> I am having an interesting issue....  I am trying to save .pdf documents from online, but every time I try to save it the file won't save as a .pdf but tries to save as a URL instead... any ideas please?
[13:42] <pilsa> SonnikkuAmerica ... neither "General" nor "Interface" ... are we talking ubuntu?
[13:42] <utfans05> angs: openlog("ubungu-log ", LOG_PID|LOG_CONS|LOG_PERROR, LOG_USER);    syslog -d (LOG_INFO, "hello ");    closelog();
[13:43] <usr13_> !info pastebinit | dmavroid
[13:43] <dmavroid> adamk_: i cannot pastebinit
[13:43] <utfans05> angs: so then if you run that program in terminal it will show you the output of that syslog command
[13:44] <usr13_> dmavroid: What command did you use?
[13:44] <angs> utfans05: it gives error "undefined reference to `d'
[13:44] <angs> when I build the code
[13:45] <dmavroid> adamk_: pastebinit sudo aticonfig --initial
[13:45] <utfans05> angs ok remove that -d... i was reading hte man for syslog and that is supposed to enable debugging :/
[13:45] <usr13_> dmavroid: sudo aticonfig --initial | pastebinit
[13:46] <dmavroid> adamk_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738781/
[13:46] <utfans05> angs: if you cd into /var/log is there not a syslog file in there?
[13:47] <dmavroid> adamk_: i have a good feeling about this
[13:47] <adamk_> dmavroid, Do you have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file now?
[13:47] <angs> utfans05: yeah it writes to syslog file, thank you for your help. Btw, do you know if I can write the logs into a specific file under /var/log, e.g. /var/log/mylogs?
[13:48] <dmavroid> adamk_: bash: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Permission denied
[13:48] <abhi_> cant open encrypted pdf file although i have a pfx certificate and a key. I dont know how to import/install the certificate and the key. PLese help ?
[13:48] <usr13_> dmavroid: It is not a command, it is a file.  Try  ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:49] <utfans05> angs: try reading the log for syslog. so in a terminal do man syslog, it may have something in there to port that to a specific file
[13:49] <utfans05> angs: log=man
[13:49] <usr13_> dmavroid: Or:  pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:49] <dmavroid> adamk_: it returns the file name so i suppose yes
[13:49] <adamk_> dmavroid, OK, restart X now then.
[13:49] <usr13_> dmavroid: What date does it show?
[13:50] <angs> thank you utfans
[13:50] <dmavroid> adamk_: there is no date on it
[13:50] <utfans05> angs: anytime
[13:50] <dmavroid> adamk_: only the file name /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:51] <usr13_> dmavroid: ls -l  #Will show details, (date etc.)
[13:51] <usr13_> dmavroid: ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:51] <dmavroid> adamk_: can you please write the full command? :S
[13:51] <dmavroid> adamk_: tahnks
[13:51] <dmavroid> adamk_: 6 of June
[13:52] <usr13_> dmavroid: well done
[13:52] <poee> how do i remove read only from a USB drive?
[13:52] <X-tonic> How do I get "56.0" from "Thermal 0: ok, 56.0 degrees C " which is an output in bash? gawk, sed, grep?
[13:52] <usr13_> dmavroid: Restart the X server and see if it works.
[13:52] <dmavroid> adamk_: so i will be fine now? i will be able to see the unity?
[13:52] <adamk_> dmavroid, There's only way one of being sure...  You need to restart X.
[13:53] <usr13_> poee: It is probably not an accurate error.  I would venture to guess that the partition you are pointint to is too small.
[13:53] <dmavroid> usr13: what do you mean by X server?
[13:54] <usr13_> poee: Maybe you need to point to the drive itself, (not a partition on it).
[13:54] <dmavroid> usr13: ok ! i was worried about that X at the end :S
[13:54] <dmavroid> usr13: i am rebooting now
[13:54] <poee> usr13_,  its mounting as read only
[13:55] <weicheng> Hi , have someone here have the experience about  join  into the windows domain ?
[13:55] <usr13_> dmavroid: sudo service lightdm restart
[13:55] <YokoBR> hey guys, i've installed the ati proprietary driver, i've installed Jupiter, but still my notebook burns... it's almost melting... why?! It doesn't happen on Windoze
[13:55] <usr13_> poee: mount | pastebinit   #Send us resulting URL

[13:58] <hugo> hugosopelana
[13:58] <ClientAlive> What command can I use to get the size of a directory from the command line? I tried df -h /path/to/directory and df -h /path/to/directory/ and df -h /path/to/directory/* but all of those just gave me the size of my entire home directory (not just one directory in it).
[13:58] <neo2> Is there a tool to convert PDF to text? I tried pdftotext but it doesn't honor the columns plus it does other funky things..
[13:59] <usr13_> poee: Some USB devices have a switch on them (for protection), one position is read only, the other is read-write.
[13:59] <theadmin> neo2: I never found anything that works sanely
[14:00] <pilsa> folks, what was the file that contains te definitions for the notification area / gnome panel? its somewhere in ~, but i dont remember exactly where
[14:00] <usr13_> neo2: PDF files are image files.  What exactly do you need to do?
[14:01] <genii> weicheng: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/domain-member.html  has fairly extensive documentation on that subject.
[14:01] <ToBeFree> PDF files can contain cleartext as well.
[14:01] <dmavroid> adamk_: still no luck after restarting i got that message that the system is running at low graphics
[14:01] <dmavroid> usr13: still no luck after restarting i got that message that the system is running at low graphics
[14:01] <adamk_> dmavroid, Pastebin the new /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
[14:02] <neo2> usr13_, I thought PDF files are postscript files...
[14:02] <adamk_> usr13_, PDF files may only contain images, but saying that they are "image files" really is not accurate.
[14:02] <dmavroid> adamk_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738830/
[14:02] <usr13_> dmavroid: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak;sudo service lightdm restart
[14:02] <adamk_> usr13_, Actually, let me rephrase that... "Some PDF files may only contain images.... "
[14:03] <ToBeFree> why are xtables-addons-dkms broken in Ubuntu, by the way? I think there even is a bug report and nobody seems to bother fixing it, not even in 13.10
[14:03] <usr13_> adamk_: Not all PDF files are the same.
[14:03] <adamk_> usr13_, Correct...  But still, PDF files are not "image files"
[14:03] <dmavroid> usr13: should i run this command as a whole in the terminal?
[14:03] <ToBeFree> "Error!  Build of xt_ACCOUNT.ko failed for: 3.9.0-3-generic (x86_64)" - always, and not just on this computer. I tried it on another Ubuntu server, too
[14:04] <usr13_> neo2: It is possible you can copy and paste the text from the PDF file to a text editor.  Try that first.
[14:04] <adamk_> dmavroid, It still doesn't appear to be even attempting to use the fglrx driver...  pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, please.
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> ToBeFree: does it work in other kernels ok?
[14:04] <ToBeFree> just try "sudo apt-get install xtables-addons-dkms" and you can reproduce this bug/whatever instantly
[14:04] <abhi_>  Hi there everyone. I recently got a pdf file with a cert file (PFX). I even got a "key" to open the "PFX file". I can successfully install the pfx file in MS Windows 7 and open the PDF file there. I am "super new" to Ubuntu. Can anyone please tell me how to install/import PFX into Ubuntu ? I am currently using Ubuntu 13.04. Please help...
[14:04] <dmavroid> adamk_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738830/ this is what i get
[14:04] <usr13_> neo2: But, if you tell us what you want to do with it, maybe we can find a specific solution.
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> abhi_: try acroread
[14:04] <ToBeFree> ActionParsnip: it doesn't work on your computer, does it
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> ToBeFree: I dont use it knowingly
[14:05] <ToBeFree> well, you could try the command.
[14:05] <adamk_> dmavroid, Yes, you already posted that.  I asked you to pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[14:05] <abhi_> Yes i have tried acroread and installed the reader. Then what ?
[14:05] <neo2> I can select and copy the text but it doesn't honor the columns, so every line breaks the columns..
[14:06] <neo2> I need to convert the PDF text to ascii so I can do text processing on it.
[14:06] <oupateddie> I have an Intel 82865G graphics card on the motherboard. My 12.04 does NOT boot up and crashes every time. It does boot up when I run recover mode but the resolution is very high and I cannot read it as it is too small. How do I get past this to reconfigure the xorg/lightdm service
[14:06] <dmavroid> adamk_: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit am i right?
[14:06] <usr13_> neo2: What kind of text processing?
[14:06] <adamk_> dmavroid, Just 'pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[14:07] <dmavroid> adamk_: Unable to read from: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:07] <adamk_> dmavroid, Sigh...  I really don't know what is going on...  Just 10 minutes ago, you had an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[14:07] <adamk_> dmavroid, Now you don't.
[14:07] <rooted> any software for ubuntu to copy .iso files into usb stick ?
[14:07] <dmavroid> adamk_: :S
[14:08] <neo2> usr13_, searching for a string and copying the paragraph it appears in
[14:08] <MonkeyDust> rooted  unetbootin and multisystem
[14:08] <c_smith> rooted: what kind of iso? this really depends on the ISO
[14:09] <usr13_> neo2: acroread won't do it?
[14:09] <abhi_> tuxboot
[14:09] <dmavroid> adamk_: what should be the driver option while i am doing all that? xorg server of fglrx-update?
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> rooted  and startup disk creator
[14:09] <rooted> its an other linux os iso
[14:09] <c_smith> rooted: and it depends on if the ISO is a hybrid one.
[14:09] <rooted> wanted to use  , dd , but am not the pro to use
[14:09] <neo2> usr13_, it's a specific command, i doubt it has that functionality
[14:10] <rooted> c_smith what do you mean by hybrid
[14:10] <usr13_> neo2: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/pdfedit/
[14:10] <c_smith> rooted: meaning it's compatible with dd.
[14:10] <usr13_> neo2: No, but has search command.
[14:10] <c_smith> in essence
[14:10] <rooted> any safe way to do ?
[14:10] <usr13_> neo2: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/master-pdf-editor/
[14:11] <neo2> usr13_, it's a tens of thousands of pages text, I can't do it manually..
[14:11] <c_smith> rooted: to run dd? yes, but there's a front-end that's easier to use in the software center.
[14:11] <dmavroid> adamk_: or it doent really matter? :S
[14:11] <c_smith> rooted: it's USB-imagewriter.
[14:11] <usr13_> neo2: From:  https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/master-pdf-editor/ "Fast and high quality display of PDF and XPS files. Adding, removing and changing text and/or images."
[14:12] <rooted> c_smith cannot find it.
[14:12] <usr13_> neo2: For what you want to do with the file, PDF is not the most friendly format.  Try getting a different format of it from what-ever source you got it from.
[14:12] <c_smith> rooted: hold on, let me get you a link
[14:13] <rooted> c_smith priciate the time man.
[14:13] <dmavroid> adamk_: i am doomed right?
[14:13] <dev__> Is it pretty usual for your auth.log to be 99% failed ssh attempts?
[14:13] <c_smith> rooted: what version of Ubuntu are you on?
[14:13] <rooted> 13.04
[14:13] <c_smith> rooted: and no prob, good sir.
[14:13] <adamk_> dmavroid, I believe fglrx-updates is the best one but, as I said, I have no idea what's going on.
[14:14] <adamk_> dmavroid, One minute you had an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and then it was gone.  I suspect you did something to delete it.
[14:14] <neo2> usr13_, I don't know if i'll find a better format, but the PDF document has clear lines separating the columns so maybe there's an easy way to automate converting it to single column
[14:14] <c_smith> rooted: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+package/usb-imagewriter
[14:14] <usr13_> neo2: If it is in collums, I do not know of any way to negotiate it the way you want to.
[14:14] <c_smith> rooted: those are the packages on launchpad
[14:14] <whoever_> hi all, setting up a multi-boot lappy, how much hdd space do i need for ubuntu
[14:14] <rooted> c_smith , thanks
[14:14] <whoever_> 100GB
[14:14] <usr13_> neo2: ... maybe someone else here has a better idea, but....
[14:14] <whoever_> ?
[14:15] <oupateddie> whoever need at least 10Gig for operating plus the rest for /home
[14:15] <dev__> whoever_: Depends on what you're doing, I only have 20GB for my laptop partition
[14:15] <c_smith> rooted: no prob, good sir.
[14:15] <dmavroid> adamk_: after restarting i could not get further than a message saying that the system is running in low graphics. and the proposed solution to open the pc was to reconfigure the graphical setting otherwise no login no nothing probably this is where the file deleted
[14:15] <oupateddie> I allocated min 10Gig but 20 Gig is fine for the root and then the rest for the /home
[14:16] <MonkeyDu1t> !partiton | whoever_
[14:16] <MonkeyDu1t> !partition | whoever_
[14:16] <whoever_>  i through out 100GB since it is a nice round number and should be able to accommadate running programms
[14:16] <dev__> 10g for root? What?
[14:16] <adamk_> dmavroid, Well I'm out of ideas. My only other suggestion is to remove the fglrx driver, and use the intel GPU.
[14:16] <oupateddie> 10 Gig sorry
[14:16] <whoever_> what is the  point of wub? linux for the completly terrified ?
[14:16] <usr13_> neo2: Yes, converting to single column may be what you need to do.
[14:16] <dev__> I wasn't commenting on notation, you can install a full build on a 10GB HDD
[14:17] <dmavroid> adamk_: so if i use intel GPU my graphic card will have no use?
[14:17] <oupateddie> I split my disk into 10 to 20 Gig for the root directory and the rest of the disk for /home directory
[14:17] <abhi_> Why is it so difficult to open encrypted pdf even though i have its certificate and key ? Any idea ?
[14:17] <dmavroid> adamk_: the AMD graphic card i mean!
[14:17] <neo2> usr13_, yeah... how?
[14:17] <oupateddie> then when you clean install or upgrade the home stays put and unaffected
[14:17] <adamk_> dmavroid, Pretty much.
[14:17] <usr13_> neo2: I dono
[14:18] <elixir_> My keyboard tab gives 8 spaces, can I limit it to 4 spaces?
[14:18] <usr13_> neo2: Copy-N-Paste?
[14:18] <elixir_> Please help ?
[14:18] <dmavroid> adamk_: that does not seem really nice....so whats the purpose of having a graphic card if i am not using it. If i leave ubuntu what can be the solution for me based on your experience?
[14:18] <usr13_> oupateddie: What app are you using?
[14:18] <usr13_> oupateddie: acroread?
[14:19] <oupateddie> For pdf's
[14:19] <ToBeFree> elixir_: where exactly?
[14:19] <ToBeFree> in your text editor, it should be possible to change it using the options, for example.
[14:19] <usr13_> oupateddie: "For pdf's"?
[14:19] <adamk_> dmavroid, I have no experience with hybrid laptops, and would never buy one.
[14:19] <usr13_> oupateddie: What application are you using?
[14:20] <dmavroid> usr13: we are out of ideas is there any possibility you can find an alternative please?
[14:20] <dmavroid> adamk_: ok thanks for trying
[14:20] <usr13_> dmavroid: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:21] <elixir_> ToBeFree: in general on a text editor (gedit)
[14:21] <dmavroid> usr13: rm: cannot remove ‘/etc/X11/xorg.conf’: No such file or director
[14:21] <usr13_> dmavroid: And it is booting into "Low Graphics Mode"?
[14:21] <dmavroid> usr13: yes
[14:22] <elixir_> ToBeFree: got it, it was gedit's prob ,thanks :)
[14:22] <usr13_> dmavroid: lspci | pastebinit
[14:22] <oupateddie> usr13 I'm using acroread to read pdf's or Adobe 9. If I need to convert pdf's back to doc s are difficult
[14:22] <usr13_> dmavroid: and send resulting URL.
[14:22] <dmavroid> usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738886/
[14:22] <oupateddie> However there is an ocr reader which also works sort of
[14:23] <usr13_> oupateddie: Yes, you are correct
[14:23] <oupateddie> What do you want to do, convert pdf to something else?
[14:23] <dmavroid> usr13_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5738886/
[14:23] <usr13_> dmavroid: Are you 12.04?
[14:24] <dmavroid> usr13_: 13.04
[14:24] <usr13_> dmavroid: Fully updated?
[14:24] <dmavroid> usr13_: yes
[14:24] <whatwhoami> ubuntu 12 is bug ridden?
[14:25] <usr13_> dmavroid: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[14:25] <dmavroid> usr13_: done
[14:26] <whatwhoami> some say ubuntu 12 is not secure
[14:26] <usr13_> dmavroid: I see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/1074494  (but it is for 12.04)
[14:26] <dmavroid> usr13_: i cannot i have no unity at the moment and i cannot min. or max any windows....
[14:27] <usr13_> dmavroid: Did you get any updates from the above command?  (sudo apt-get upgrade)
[14:27] <dmavroid> usr13_: nop
[14:27] <usr13_> dmavroid: you could install a different desktop environment
[14:27] <dmavroid> usr13_: like?
[14:27] <usr13_> xfce
[14:27] <adamk_> Using a different desktop environment is not going to get his AMD GPU working.
[14:28] <dmavroid> usr13_: i am unborn relative to this so a little spoon feeding coulb be usefull :)
[14:28] <SonikkuAmerica> In fact, it'll just cause more problems...
[14:28] <usr13_> adamk_: I did not say that it would, but might give him some additional function
[14:28] <usr13_> SonikkuAmerica: I doubt that.
[14:29] <usr13_> adamk_: SonikkuAmerica If you2 have suggestion(s), say so.
[14:29] <dmavroid> usr13_: what do you mean by another desktop environment?
[14:29] <usr13_> dmavroid: How did you install the video driver you are trying to use?
[14:30] <pilsa> hi ... i have a problem with gnome panel (gnome classic on ubuntu 12.04). some of  the icons (sound, network) in the notification area  (right hand side) are seperated by too much space and i want them packed more tightly. besides there is a xchat icon that doesnt belong there and i cant get rid of it. please check out the screenshot:
[14:30] <dmavroid> usr13_: from additional drivers
[14:30] <pilsa> http://s7.directupload.net/images/130606/8korvvmc.png
[14:30] <pilsa> any idea?
[14:30] <usr13_> pilsa: Did you try the suggestions I gave you earlier?
[14:30] <pilsa> yes
[14:30] <usr13_> dmavroid: I suppose you could just uninstall it.
[14:30] <pilsa> no help, really
[14:31] <dmavroid> usr13_: yes but my cpu reaches 95degrees celcius
[14:31] <usr13_> dmavroid: Is it a laptop or Desktop?
[14:31] <dmavroid> usr13_: laptop
[14:32] <Laurenceb> hi
[14:32] <Laurenceb> how do i check if my samba server is running?
[14:32] <Laurenceb> windows users can't connect
[14:33] <dmavroid> usr13_: is there something i can do or i should return to windows?
[14:33] <Laurenceb> but i dont know if it is a network issue
[14:33] <usr13_> dmavroid: What does the cpu reaching 95C have to do with it?
[14:33] <usr13_> dmavroid: If you remove the proprietary driver, will it heat up more?
[14:33] <dmavroid> usr13_: youtube-skype and whatever increases the usage of cpu
[14:33] <dmavroid> usr13_: yes
[14:34] <usr13_> dmavroid: Really?  Have you tried it?
[14:34] <dmavroid> usr13_: by removing the driver is the only way i can use the unity so yes
[14:35] <usr13_> dmavroid: I would suggest not using unity, (by installing another Desktop Environment).
[14:35] <dmavroid> usr13_: how to install another environment?
[14:35] <usr13_> dmavroid: What is the make and model of your laptop?
[14:35] <dmavroid> usr13_: hp pavilion g6
[14:36] <usr13_> dmavroid: To install xfce:  sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[14:36] <dmavroid> usr13_: and after installing?
[14:37] <SonikkuAmerica> dmavroid: Log out and switch to "Xubuntu Session"
[14:37] <usr13_> dmavroid: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/1068404
[14:37] <dmavroid> usr13_: is there any complicated stuff during the process?
[14:37] <usr13_> dmavroid: no
[14:38] <dmavroid> usr13_: what are the possibilities of have it working after that?
[14:38] <usr13_> dmavroid: First do:  ls -ltr /var/lib/dpkg/info/*list  and identify the graphics driver you installed, (so you can uninstall it).
[14:39] <dmavroid> usr13_: with a different desktop i would probably be able to make use of my fglrx drivers?
[14:39] <usr13_> dmavroid: I don't really know for sure, but if you uninstall the offending software, it should work better. (xfce or lxde are more resource friendly Desktop Environments).
[14:40] <dmavroid> usr13_: can you please send my an alternative of xubuntu? just in case
[14:40] <usr13_> dmavroid: No, changing to a lower impact Desktop Environment will not change your ability of using the fglrx driver
[14:41] <usr13_> dmavroid: xubuntu-desktop lubuntu-desktop are two alternatives.
[14:41] <oupateddie> I have an Intel 82865G graphics card on the motherboard. My 12.04 does NOT boot up and crashes every time. It does boot up when I run recover mode but the resolution is very high and I cannot read it as it is too small. How do I get past this to reconfigure the xorg/lightdm service
[14:41] <dmavroid> usr13_: whats the point of not be able to use my graphic card?
[14:42] <usr13_> oupateddie: xrandr | pastebinit
[14:42] <oupateddie> usr13 stand by
[14:42] <dmavroid> usr13_: final question. so there is no luck in using linux on my computer without ignoring my graphic card?
[14:43] <usr13_> dmavroid: If you uninstall the proprietary driver, you will still be able to use your display adapter, (the opensource one will be used by default).
[14:43] <irhass> ls
[14:43] <codepython777> update-rc.d nginx defaults —> Tells me —> System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/nginx already exists —> But nginx does not start at boot
[14:43] <adamk> He will only be able to use the intel GPU, not the AMD one.
[14:43] <codepython777> any ideas on how to fix this?
[14:43] <usr13_> dmavroid: You can not use a computer without a graphics card?   That is not an option and no one said it was.
[14:44] <irhass> nvidia support?
[14:44] <dmavroid> usr13_: by using the xorg server option i am using the AMD of the intel GPU?
[14:44] <SonikkuAmerica> dmavroid: Ever heard of SSH... headless servers...? XD
[14:44] <usr13_> dmavroid: And that was MY suggestion from the start, to uninstall the one you are uisng now.
[14:45] <usr13_> uninstall the fglrx driver
[14:45] <oupateddie> usr13 - http://pastebin.com/ix1CqEE4
[14:46] <dmavroid> usr13_: i probably tired you with my stupid questions and forgive me for that as i am new. thank you for your time and help i will try the xubuntu way and i hope it will work
[14:46] <Phryq> hey, for some reason I can no longer control my volume settings
[14:46] <Phryq> like, the thing in the top right corner is greyed out
[14:47] <oupateddie> usr13_ this is the fall back video driver it uses. It only comes up when I boot from the resume boot in the seq of grub's recovery option
[14:47] <oupateddie> If I boot normally the machine hangs itself up completely

[14:59] <usr13_> oupateddie: KVM switch, (Keyboard/Video/Mouse)
[14:59] <Laurenceb> http://pastebin.com/JuRdV1Fb
[14:59] <Laurenceb> ^there
[15:00] <oupateddie> usr13_	 Not that I know of
[15:00] <usr13_> oupateddie: will 1024x768 work?
[15:00] <oupateddie> Keyboard is USB Mouse also USB
[15:00] <usr13_> oupateddie: Try it and see:  xrandr -s 1024x768
[15:01] <oupateddie> usr the 12XX is still OK but it doesn't want to boot directly into it.  This is my problem
[15:01] <oupateddie> The 1024 is a bit large
[15:01] <usr13_> oupateddie: So how are you getting 1280x1024?
[15:01] <oupateddie> usr13_	 what I want to get is that the machione at least boots up without a hassle
[15:02] <usr13_> oupateddie: Lets start over.  What is the issue?
[15:02] <oupateddie> usr13_	 yep 1280 X 1024 but only if I boot in recovery mode and then continue with resume normal boot, any other way the machine crashes
[15:02] <dmavroid> usr13_: i can see the unity now but 1)the desktop looks the same 2) the overheat is still a problem
[15:03] <oupateddie> usr13_	 and it also does not boot up in this way every time....
[15:03] <oupateddie> usr13_	 even via the recovery mode
[15:03] <usr13_> oupateddie: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:04] <oupateddie> have done tha a number of times today, even removed all the nvidia stuff and install the intel driver
[15:04] <Peter121> Ok, so i in connection properties using OpenDns servers, and they was working... until now, something happened and when i go to check2.ip i see that im using my ISP and other country DNS, but im not, the settings is settup for OpenDNS... Maybe i can use some command to see what really happening here ?
[15:04] <dmavroid> usr13_: however i had to type ccsm to termina and enable the unity tool in order to see the unity
[15:04] <Peter121> i mean check2ip.com
[15:04] <oupateddie> I also deleted the /.config/monitors.xml file a few times
[15:04] <usr13_> dmavroid:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/1068404
[15:05] <usr13_> dmavroid: How is it you are still using unity, (after installing xfce)?  Did you choose to boot to unity rather than xfce?
[15:06] <dmavroid> usr13_: i had not such an option
[15:07] <oupateddie> usr13_	 I in fact installes 12.04 on another drive today (clean install) and that did the same
[15:07] <usr13_> dmavroid: Ok, I'm lost.
[15:07] <dmavroid> usr13_: i saw the xubuntu logo but that was all..
[15:07] <usr13_> dmavroid: Did you follow the link I just sent you?
[15:08] <dmavroid> usr13_: i installed xubuntu as you said before. i have to go through the link now since ..now i can navigate graphically
[15:08] <usr13_> dmavroid: Did you read the  "WORKAROUND" part?
[15:09] <bosse_> hi
[15:09] <dmavroid> usr13_: i am tired as you are. it seems a really useful link and i will read it after lunch. do you think this will solve the problem? finally thanks again
[15:09] <usr13_> dmavroid: ... which seems to point to:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#WORKAROUND
[15:09] <fortyyy> !list
[15:09] <bosse_> first time using ubuntu i love it
[15:10] <oupateddie> usr13_	 at the moment I'n on the sick machine but once I shut down and reboot then I doubt if it will boot in the same mode as now... I have tried this also a number of times. I have also tried to run failsafe mode but then the error is to config the card manually and the machine hangs up
[15:10] <usr13_> dmavroid: I don't know....
[15:10] <dmavroid> usr13_: hahahaha ! enjoy the rest of your day. cheers
[15:10] <usr13_> oupateddie: Is this a laptop?
[15:10] <usr13_> dmavroid: Sure... good luck.  Save that URL and read...

[15:15] <mosx1> thx
[15:15] <Laurenceb> samba is already the newest version.
[15:16] <Laurenceb> sudo restart smbd                restart: Unknown instance:
[15:16] <SolarisBoy> that just means it wasn't running -
[15:16] <Laurenceb> but i get that reach restart

[15:16] <usr13_> Laurenceb: sudo service smbd restart
[15:16] <SolarisBoy> not restart it
[15:16] <SolarisBoy> upstart keeps track of jobs -
[15:17] <SolarisBoy> your saying restart but it wasn't running -
[15:17] <Laurenceb> im getting the same message
[15:17] <Laurenceb> surely this means it is quitting?
[15:17] <SolarisBoy> check the log

[15:18] <SolarisBoy> if it's a upstart job that is.

[15:18] <usr13_> Laurenceb: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:18] <SolarisBoy> you should check the logs before going destroy mode imho.
[15:19] <Laurenceb> usr13_ ok

[15:19] <usr13_> Laurenceb: Please use complete sentences, and keep it all on one line.
[15:19] <Laurenceb> k
[15:20] <SolarisBoy> the error is coming from a file under smb_server ownership apparently
[15:20] <conductor> Hi all
[15:20] <SolarisBoy> more so a function called make_connection - why not google that?
[15:20] <og93> join #xubuntu
[15:20] <usr13_> og93:  /
 as it is clear to be that the server name does not exist
[15:21] <budmang> why would a cron job not kick off or not work :)
[15:21] <budmang> show its did but never completes
[15:21] <SolarisBoy> budmang: issues with the job? bad interpreter? things like that
[15:21] <usr13_> budmang: It will work if written properly.
[15:22] <usr13_> budmang: Sounds like you need to do some testing.
[15:22] <SolarisBoy> Laurenceb: does the <name> exist as a share somewhere?
[15:22] <og93> join #xubuntu-devel
[15:22] <usr13_> og93: Try:   /join #xubuntu
[15:22] <budmang> usr13_: it works fine one server 1, copy same one to server2(run it manually etc.. works)
[15:23] <budmang> cron kicks it off never runs
[15:23] <budmang> 30 08 * * * /bin/bash /root/BACKUP/333dump.sh &
[15:23] <usr13_> budmang: Again, test first.
[15:24] <SolarisBoy> who's crontab is that in?
[15:24] <budmang> usr13_: how do I get more debugging on it?
[15:24] <SolarisBoy> usr13_: 2>&1
[15:24] <SolarisBoy> grr budmang ^
[15:24] <daya> Any idea to integrate ubuntu installer in ubunut Live CD
[15:24] <SolarisBoy> /bin/bash /root/BACKUP/333dump.sh > /tmp/debug.log 2>&1 &
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> budmang: if you add the top line:  #!/bin/bash   to the /root/BACKUP/333dump.sh file, you don't need /bin/bash in cron
[15:24] <prime_> @search peter clines
[15:24] <budmang> I dont know why it woudl work on one and not the other.
[15:24] <prime_> oops sorry
[15:25] <budmang> #!/bin/bash - is at the top.
[15:25] <SolarisBoy> budmang: you can also add /bin/bash -x in your shebang or on your command line
[15:25] <budmang> cron didnt work with/without /bin/bash in the cron
[15:25] <SolarisBoy> budmang: thats because i believe your cron is /bin/sh
[15:25] <SolarisBoy> budmang: is it executable? who should run the script - did you add the debug routing and redirect to a file to see any errors if applicable?
[15:26] <budmang> SolarisBoy: what do you mean, this works exact on another box(bin/bash)
[15:26] <budmang> just added the debug it will kick off in 4 minutes
[15:26] <budmang> SolarisBoy: 777 everything to test
[15:27] <budmang> I can run it manually just fine.
[15:27] <usr13_> budmang: do you need the & at the end?
[15:28] <SolarisBoy> probably not needed cron is a background daemon already -
[15:28] <pbx-interview> i've got a fresh install of 12.10 (server) that is not seeing my network card. ifconfig only lists "lo". but the installer had no problem pulling down packages so i know it can be done. where do i start? FWIW i have CLI only
[15:28] <usr13_> SolarisBoy: That's what I thought...
[15:28] <DooMMasteR> hi there
[15:29] <DooMMasteR> I have a problem with ubuntu on my acer travelmate 8172T
[15:29] <usr13_> pbx-interview: What does lspci say?
[15:29] <DooMMasteR> I can only use bluetooth or wifi
[15:29] <SolarisBoy> pbx-interview: if you have lshw try 'sudo lshw -C network'
[15:29] <DooMMasteR> never both at the same time
[15:30] <DooMMasteR> also after suspend the wifi is "hard" off an I have to reenable it again
[15:30] <usr13_> pbx-interview:  ifconfig -a
[15:30] <bipul> pbx-interview, hello
[15:30] <dosequis> quit
[15:31] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - adding -a doesn't change the output. still only lists "lo"
[15:32] <SolarisBoy> pbx-interview: did you run lspci or lshw yet?
[15:32] <usr13_> pbx-interview: What does lspci say?
[15:33] <pbx-interview> SolarisBoy - yeah - lists my wifi card, though doesn't list eth0
[15:34] <SonikkuAmerica> SolarisBoy: (I've always wondered, are you on Solaris when you're on IRC?)
[15:34] <SolarisBoy> pbx-interview: ok - can you check your /var/log/messages and dmesg output? and grep eth0 to see if there were any errors on boot up?
[15:34] <SolarisBoy> SonikkuAmerica: nope Ubuntu
[15:34] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - lspci lists an "Ethernet controller"...
[15:34] <SonikkuAmerica> SolarisBoy: (I use OpenIndiana [nee OpenSolaris])
[15:35] <SonikkuAmerica> (But I'm !ot'ing)
[15:35] <SolarisBoy> SonikkuAmerica: sweet deal
[15:35] <bosse_> hella
[15:35] <SonikkuAmerica> SolarisBoy: (GNOME 2 and all)
[15:35]  * SolarisBoy high fiving
[15:35] <usr13_> pbx-interview: What comes after "Ethernet controller"  ....?
[15:36] <bosse_>  i wanna be a computer geek
[15:36] <usr13_> pbx-interview: Show is some identification.
[15:36] <bosse_> lol
[15:36] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - heh. ethernet controller is last in the list
[15:36] <john112233> I am trying to install ubuntu using a live cd but the setup is not detecting my windows installation. Anything I can do?
[15:37] <bosse_> can i run kali linux in ubuntu ?
[15:37] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - or if you mean on that line... "Apple Inc. Uninorth 2 GMAC..."
[15:37] <usr13_> john112233: What do you mean it is detecting the windows installation?
[15:38] <auronandace> bosse_: you can run any linux inside ubuntu if you use a vm
[15:38] <bosse_> what is a good wm for ubuntu
[15:38] <john112233> usr13_: The setup detects the windows installation and offers to take part of the disk space along side it right? its only showing me the partition table. not detecting my windows
[15:38] <auronandace> bosse_: define good
[15:38] <usr13_> pbx-interview: Oh, so it is a Mac!  Okay...  What is the make and model?
[15:39] <bosse_> runs simple
[15:39] <SolarisBoy> unity?
[15:39] <OerHeks> bosse_, standard gnome3/unity is good.
[15:39] <auronandace> bosse_: you are not being very specific
[15:40] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - powerbook 12" -- PPC :)
[15:40] <bosse_> a good vm for just kali
[15:40] <usr13_> pbx-interview: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1824293.html
[15:40] <bosse_> not just kali but that runs kali without problem
[15:40] <auronandace> bosse_: kali is not supported here
[15:41] <bosse_> why
[15:41]  * SolarisBoy face palming
[15:41] <auronandace> bosse_: because this channel is for ubuntu support only
[15:41] <genii> !info kali
[15:41] <Kroach> how can I make a service start after user login?
[15:41]  * genii sips
[15:41] <bosse_> yes and i was asking if i can run kali on ubuntu and you soppurted me to download vm thanks bye
[15:41] <usr13_> !service | Kroach
[15:42] <SolarisBoy> Kroach: there is an event for that
[15:42] <meteors2313> how to set by default that nickserv identify me using a password when I open xchat instead of writing /msg nickserv identify
[15:42] <meteors2313> ?
[15:42] <sambagirl> ƒ
[15:42] <usr13_> Kroach: sudo service <service-name> start/restart/stop
[15:42] <KaiserThaws> Hi all, I have an issue with my Ubuntu server, /boot is full (256mib). That came while I was trying to update my kernel
[15:42] <jrib> KaiserThaws: remove old kernels
[15:42] <SolarisBoy> Kroach: look into upstart events
[15:42] <SolarisBoy> make a .conf under init and use the login event -
[15:43] <usr13_> KaiserThaws: Make it bigger, or delete old kernels.
[15:43] <KaiserThaws> thanks, going to try that
[15:43] <meteors2313> how to set by default that nickserv identify me using a password when I open xchat instead of writing /msg nickserv identify ?
[15:43] <JR198> Hi, just a quick one, (which I can't seem to get a proper answer for on Google), how do I format a hard drive from a Linux Live CD?
[15:43] <usr13_> KaiserThaws: If it is only 256M, make it bigger.
[15:44] <meteors2313> use gparted to format a partition
[15:44] <SolarisBoy> Kroach: http://askubuntu.com/questions/28281/what-events-are-available-for-upstart check that page out or man upstart-events and search for 'login-session-start'
[15:44] <KaiserThaws> 3.2* needs more space ?
[15:44] <meteors2313> in linux live
[15:44] <usr13_> KaiserThaws: Use a boot disk and resize
[15:44] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - thanks. i was hoping to focus on eth0 first -- because it's likely to be simpler, and because i know it works (the installer used it).
[15:44] <sambagirl> codepython777 you still about? i had an emergency and forgot about irc
[15:44] <JR198> meteors2313 I can't get gparted to boot on this laptop... is there a way through fdisk or something?
[15:44] <john112233> usr13_: is there anyway to make ubuntu installer detect windows?
[15:44] <battlehands> I followed this for sharing a folder from my host machine to my guest machine (which is ubuntu running from VirtualBox) http://superuser.com/questions/381661/virtual-machine-virtualbox-how-to-access-files-from-the-hosting-machine , but I can't find the shared folder in my Ubuntu OS.
[15:45] <meteors2313> what's the prob with gparted
[15:45] <roler> Is it recommended to use the unattended-upgrades package on a server?
[15:45] <Kroach>  SolarisBoy: thanks, I'll look into that
[15:45] <OerHeks> JR198, depends, how big is the hdd? and in what format do you want to format?
[15:45] <sambagirl> hey does wubi work in w8 or w7 with these new uefi bios's?
[15:45] <codepython777> sambagirl: am around yes
[15:45] <JR198> During boot it just powers off the machine
[15:45] <SolarisBoy> Kroach: sure
[15:45] <JR198> OerHeks: 500GB, ext3, NTFS or FAT32
[15:45] <sambagirl> private message me cause i'm on a vm and it's hard to track stuff
[15:46] <usr13_> pbx-interview: Boot the install CD, look at lsmod and see what driver it is using, boot back to HD and modprobe it
[15:46] <auronandace> sambagirl: no
[15:46] <JR198> Just anything really, I just think I've screwed up the partition table somehow when trying to format it before.
[15:46] <Mr-E> Guys, is there a good way of dealing with UEFI/Secureboot?
[15:46] <OerHeks> JR198, in a live environment you need the ntfs-3g package
[15:46] <sambagirl> auronandance ok th
[15:46] <sambagirl> mr-e yep, disable secure boot and put uefi in uefi and compatibility os or legacy
[15:46] <JR198> OerHeks: Even if I don't format into NTFS?
[15:46] <sambagirl> turn off the fast boot option or disable it
[15:47] <auronandace> sambagirl: i strongly advise you to avoid wubi, a vm would be a better solution
[15:47] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - ok, i'll try that. hopefully lsmod is there in the shell provided by the installer
[15:47] <OerHeks> JR198, not for fat32, indeed
[15:47] <sambagirl> auronandace ok
[15:47] <usr13_> pbx-interview: You could boot to boot disk and chmod to the HD I suppose.
[15:47] <marianne> ok stupid  question... how do I make transparent windows on my desktop... I've looked at the tutorials online but it never seems to work... is there a detailed step by step out there somewhere...12.04, 64 bit
[15:47] <JR198> OerHeks: And ext3 or other native Linux formats?
[15:47] <usr13_> !chmod | pbx-interview
[15:47] <Mr-E> sambagirl, I've got fastboot off, and thought I turned off secureboot, but the computer never boots from the usb drive
[15:48] <sambagirl> mr e
[15:48] <usr13_> !chroot | pbx-interview
[15:48] <sambagirl> i had the same issues
[15:48] <usr13_> pbx-interview: I meant chroot not chmod
[15:48] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - i know what chmod is. i don't know what you mean by "chmod to the HD"
[15:48] <auronandace> !uefi | Mr-E
[15:48] <pbx-interview> usr13_ - ah, ok
[15:49] <OerHeks> JR198, native = standard , so try gparted and the gui lets you choose
[15:49] <sambagirl> what i ended up doing is you have to select the fn key for boot menu to see anything  these new bios due to microsofts arrogance has made it so that the only thing to work like it used to is to have only microsoft w8 and NOTHING ELSE :D
[15:49] <sambagirl> cause nothing else exists!
[15:49] <sambagirl> do the fn and you will see the usb
[15:49] <Mr-E> yeah, it's almost like they're begging for a class-action lawsuit
[15:50] <sambagirl> well we knew this was coming
[15:50] <sambagirl> they announced it over 2 years ago
[15:50] <Mr-E> ok, thanks! unfortunately I'm at work right now, but I'll try it tonight.
[15:50] <sambagirl> it works
[15:50] <theadmin> sambagirl: Eh, you can also go to PC Settings -> General -> Advanced boot options and then choose to boot from CD in Windows 8
[15:50] <Mr-E> It's weird though. I got into the BIOS, and told the computer to boot from my USB
[15:50] <sambagirl> theadmin :D
[15:50] <Mr-E> even changed the boot order
[15:50] <Mr-E> oh well
[15:51] <Mr-E> I'll give that a shot.
[15:51] <sambagirl> mr-e my usb doesn't even show as an option for boot
[15:51] <sambagirl> it doesn't even exist in the bios
[15:51] <Appu> I need help to install ubuntu from wubi. There is no option like 'Install inside windows'
[15:51] <sambagirl> it did once but now it dissapeared
[15:51] <theadmin> Appu: Wubi doesn't exist anymore
[15:51] <SonikkuAmerica> Appu: Wubi is dea.
[15:51] <SonikkuAmerica> +D
[15:52] <sambagirl> drug enforcement adjustment? :D
[15:52] <Appu> SonikkuAmerica, Didnt get you.
[15:52] <JR198> OerHeks: Okay, I managed to boot into Ubuntu through a USB
[15:52] <sambagirl> mr-e it will work
[15:52] <Mr-E> thanks!
[15:52] <SonikkuAmerica> Appu: Wubi is dead.
[15:52] <JR198> OerHeks: I just tried GParted, and tried deleting all Partitions so that I can format the whole thing, but it won't let me delete the /dev/sda5/linux-swap
[15:52] <sambagirl> heck i am running osx in vm in linux and i know if i can do that you can do what your needing to
[15:53] <Appu> I want to install ubuntu 11.10. It's still alive for it.
[15:53] <Mr-E> sambagirl, running osx in a vm is pretty straightforward compared to this
[15:53] <Mr-E> mostly because there's better documentation
[15:54] <sambagirl> i wonder if 10.04 will even work on this new i7 laptop to be honest. i read an article where tovian linus put out 2 kernel proposals due to the trickery down by the mfg.'s at microsofts behest to give out bad and inaccurate driver info for the linux community.
[15:54] <sambagirl> mr-e there is no documentation for this
[15:55] <basiclas-> i sold my MBP because i was so fed up with UEFI :D now I have a zareason :P
[15:55] <sambagirl> the new laptops don't even list  model numbers on them. all i know is this is a samsung laptop
[15:55] <meteors2313> @JR198 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=27441 check this out
[15:55] <sambagirl> :D
[15:55] <Appu> Can I install ubuntu on my windows pc which has a single drive, without affecting windows?
[15:55] <sambagirl> appu sure in virtual box or vmware
[15:56] <sambagirl> that is what i would do. dual boot seems to be history
[15:56] <basiclas-> my zareason laptop is so much nicer than my macbook ^ ^
[15:56] <SonikkuAmerica> sambagirl: Oh really
[15:56] <Appu> sambagirl, I hate VM frankly.
[15:56] <sambagirl> i don't even know why grub is around anymore?
[15:56] <genii> Appu: So long as the drive has enough free room on it for an Ubuntu install ( preferably something like 60-100G ) The installer will resize the Windows partition to make room if you want to set it up for a dual-boot
[15:56] <sambagirl> except in the server environment i think
[15:56] <meteors2313> JR198 use mkswap
[15:57] <sambagirl> appu vm is beautiful
[15:57] <SonikkuAmerica> Appu: You can also shrink your Windows partition and install Ubuntu alongside Windows
[15:57] <meteors2313> followed by your swap location
[15:57] <auronandace> genii: 60 - 100GB? what on earh do you do in ubuntu?
[15:57] <Cyberspaceloa> sambagirl: what's this about dual boot being history? I pretty much only have years old computers
[15:57] <genii> auronandace: Graphics :)
[15:57] <SolarisBoy> grub has a solidified spot in the computer world
[15:57] <Mr-E> basiclas-, all of the laptop trackpads have dedicated buttons. eww
[15:57] <Appu> sambagirl, It ain't for me :)
[15:57] <sambagirl>  cyberspaceloa your ok
[15:57] <SolarisBoy> server or desktop - or rather the idea of a boot loader is indespensable
[15:57] <genii> auronandace: And because it will be a single file system this would include room on /home for their downloads, etc
[15:58] <sambagirl> well a friend told me th win8 uses grub loader
[15:58] <basiclas-> Mr-E:  i have no trouble with it :)
[15:58] <sambagirl> but remember microsoft claims ownership to linux too :D
[15:58] <auronandace> genii: i prefer a seperate storage partition
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> they do?
[15:58] <Appu> sambagirl, really?
[15:58] <SolarisBoy> thought Linus Torvalds did that
[15:58] <Cyberspaceloa> yes SolarisBoy, they think they invented the OS
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> linux isn't an OS
[15:59] <sambagirl> yes appu there was a big lawsuit over it
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> it's a kernel
[15:59] <Cyberspaceloa> SolarisBoy, I'm just telling you how MS sees it
[15:59] <Cyberspaceloa> I know linux is a kernel
[15:59] <auronandace> !ot
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> insanity
[15:59] <sambagirl> solarisboy now try that logic in a court of law :)
[15:59] <meteors2313> how to automatically make xchat identify me instead of using /msg nickserv identify everytime
[15:59] <SolarisBoy> i'll pass =)
[15:59] <JR198> meteors2313: You're a life saver :)
[15:59] <sambagirl> haha
[15:59] <meteors2313> it's ohkk JR198
[16:00] <meteors2313> use onswap to reinitialize
[16:00] <SolarisBoy> well i'll say this much - it's not out of band for microsoft - they stole everything else starting with DOS
[16:00] <meteors2313> @JR198 sry swapon
[16:00] <sambagirl> it took me so much to get any linux to work properly on this new laptop.  was totally blown away by the "interactive" bios
[16:00] <sambagirl> er transparent i should say
[16:01]  * SolarisBoy just found out about /bin/initctl2dot
[16:01] <sambagirl> i am going to try solaris on it and haiku and amiga os to see if they can work :D
[16:01] <SolarisBoy> have fun with that
[16:02] <sambagirl> maybe ubuntu should move towards xenix :)
[16:02] <sambagirl> that will show microsoft!
[16:03] <meteors2313> how to automatically make xchat identify me instead of using /msg nickserv identify everytime
[16:04] <SonikkuAmerica> meteors2313: File > Network List... select the network, click Edit and type your NickServ password in the text box
[16:04] <sambagirl> what amazed me was i could not understand some old compaq servers and i was so frustrated with them (not knowing about smart drive boot cd) that i tried netbsd and boom it worked. so maybe ubuntu can move backwards to like plan9 interface and fundtionality and fool everyone
[16:04] <aladdin> meteors2313: go for weechat, it is in the repo. it does what you are afte
[16:05] <aladdin> r
[16:05] <sambagirl> bbl
[16:05] <aladdin> how to scrn capture please?
[16:05] <meteors2313> aladdin can xchat not fo that
[16:06] <meteors2313> there
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> aladdin: I just told you how to do it in XChat!
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> meteors2313: ^
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> aladdin: Oops
[16:06] <SolarisBoy> aladdin: hit the prtscn button
[16:06] <meteors2313> there's no other solution than to opt for weechat
[16:06] <SolarisBoy> if you want to capture a window hit ALT+prtscn
[16:06] <SolarisBoy> after selecting the window
[16:06] <aladdin> SonikkuAmerica: :) ok
[16:07] <SolarisBoy> !shutter
[16:07] <aladdin> SolarisBoy: and then?
[16:08] <SolarisBoy> ?
[16:08] <SolarisBoy> thats how you take a screen capture.
[16:08] <aladdin> meteors2313: hmm, why I like weechat is it's fast
[16:09] <aladdin> meteors2313: maybe there is mIRC, not sure
[16:09] <meteors2313> ohkk aladdin i'll check that out
[16:09] <meteors2313> mIRC?
[16:10] <aladdin> there is also a fork of xchat called hexchat
[16:10] <Guest45034> you can just capyure the screen
[16:10] <Guest45034> its not on xchat

[16:11] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[16:11] <ShapeShifter499> is there anything wrong with my iptables?  with the following settings I cannot access the internet via hostapd wifi http://pastebin.com/bZFnJzKC
[16:11] <usr13_> gkimball: ls /home/gkimball
[16:12] <dicedingus> I messed with some of my compiz settings and now when I log in all I have is a wallpaper, no desktop environment. Anyone around who can help me with that?
[16:12] <SolarisBoy> ShapeShifter499: flush the rules and try - if it works its your rule set
[16:12] <usr13_> gkimball: Not sure what your question is.  On the Ubuntu PC?  Or the MS Windows PC?
[16:12] <SolarisBoy> ShapeShifter499: sudo iptables -F
[16:12] <gkimball> usr13: Yes on Ubuntu 13.04.
[16:13] <gkimball> usr13_: I am connecting to a network drive
[16:13] <SolarisBoy> ShapeShifter499: if you want to see what rules are working try sudo iptables -nvL to list the stats/counts
[16:13] <Guest45034> iptables works if it setup properly
[16:13] <Fieldy> very well. it's very powerful.
[16:13] <SolarisBoy> basically. and your setup varies on your aim -
[16:13] <aladdin> SolarisBoy: i got it, it is Fn + print scrn button
[16:13] <Guest45034> setup through whyspace
[16:14] <Guest45034> and then printscreen and F1
[16:14] <gkimball> usr13_: ls /home/gkimball just shows my home directory.
[16:14]  * SolarisBoy lost
[16:14] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: usr13_: it would probably be under gvfs somewhere if it is there -
[16:14] <john112233> how much swap area do I need to dedicate to a 100 GB ubuntu installation of 12.04 LTS
[16:14]  * dicedingus hums.
[16:15] <usr13_> gkimball: SO you are sharing the network drive via samba?
[16:15] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: you can try to check df -ah and see if it's mounted there somewhere otherwise it's likely mounted in some userspace file system mess made accessible via nautilus
[16:15] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: I have a .gvfs in home but it gives me permission denied.
[16:15] <budmang> any easy way to change my root partition size with out reinstall?
[16:15] <auronandace> john112233: depends entirely on your ram
[16:15] <john112233> auronandace : I have 4 GB Ram
[16:15] <auronandace> john112233: then just over 4gb if you want to use hibernation
[16:16] <usr13_> gkimball: Do you have a fstab entry for it?  If so, show us:  pastebinit /etc/fstab  #And send resulting URL
[16:16] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: df -ah has this entry: gvfsd-fuse         0     0     0    - /run/user/gkimball/gvfs
[16:16] <john112233> auronandace: I have to allocate a seperate partition for swap of 4 gb size?
[16:17] <auronandace> john112233: if you want to use hibernation yes
[16:17] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: you may need to unmount your gvfs remove the folder and allow it to get created
[16:17] <SolarisBoy> that sounds like a bug that was running around
[16:17] <john112233> auronandace: does having a swap partition larger than 4gb increase speed?
[16:18] <auronandace> john112233: no
[16:18] <usr13_> john112233: How much RAM do you have?
[16:18] <auronandace> john112233: swap is slower than ram
[16:18] <SolarisBoy> as far as accessing from the cli im still not sure - but im talking in regards to getting .gvfs errors on df and such
[16:18] <SolarisBoy> thats annoying =(
[16:18] <john112233> usr13_: 4 GB
[16:18] <usr13_> john112233: How big is your swap partition?
[16:18] <gkimball> usr13_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5739221/
[16:19] <john112233> usr13_: I havent made the swap partition , yet.
[16:19] <usr13_> john112233: 4g or little larger will be fine.
[16:20] <john112233> usr13_: okay got it. I ll allocate 4.5 GB
[16:20] <usr13_> gkimball: Are you running Ubuntu as host in a VM?
[16:20] <john112233> thanks usr13_ , auronandace
[16:20] <Guest45034> not as a host
[16:20] <Guest45034> it is strictly vpn
[16:20] <usr13_> john112233: Yes, that is fine.
[16:21] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: I basically want to store my web projects on the network drive and point my nginx to it for development.
[16:21] <gkimball> usr13_: It's a dual-boot with Windows as the main OS.
[16:21] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: you want to mount via a standard file system - and put it in fstab - dont mount it via gnome/gui in that case
[16:22] <gkimball> I see
[16:22] <SolarisBoy> because you'll eventually run into problems unless your webserver is running as a user who can access gvfs files under your home any way
[16:22] <usr13_> SolarisBoy: Did you see his fstab file?
[16:22] <zykotick9> SolarisBoy: re:gkimball +1 on fstab suggestion
[16:22] <SolarisBoy> usr13_: nopes - but it's not a good idea to house web files from gvfs -
[16:22] <SolarisBoy> that would just be weird =)
[16:22] <usr13_> SolarisBoy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5739221/
[16:23] <Guest45034> john-- what program you runing
[16:23] <usr13_> SolarisBoy: That does not look like a normal Ubuntu install to me.
[16:23] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: They wouldn't be publicly accessible or anything. just for development.
[16:23] <Guest45034> is Aceking
[16:23] <SolarisBoy> seems like some sort of fstab in a chroot
[16:23] <SolarisBoy> ::shrugs::
[16:23] <gkimball> usr13_: It's the install that you start within Wondows utilizing Wubi
[16:23] <zykotick9> usr13_: what is that?  /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk doesn't look like a device i've ever seen.
[16:23] <SolarisBoy> its a file
[16:23] <usr13_> gkimball: Oh it is wubi  Ok that explains it.
[16:24] <SolarisBoy> formatted as a block device zykotick9 -
[16:24] <SolarisBoy> yea i get it now it's some nasty little chroot environment used by wubi
[16:24] <zykotick9> SolarisBoy: thanks.  that seems lame to me...
[16:24]  * SolarisBoy loling
[16:24] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: usr13_ Not the ideal way I would have liked to install but I had to fight to get them to allow me to use Ubuntu on the company system.
[16:24] <SolarisBoy> makes sense - how else would they configure and installa  disk from window
[16:25] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: in this case - why not just install to a stick and boot that? you can still mount shares and run a web server from it
[16:25] <zykotick9> SolarisBoy: ahhh, so that's my disconnect on this... this is windows-related ;)
[16:25] <SolarisBoy> and you avoid playing with your companies disk
[16:25] <SolarisBoy> zykotick9: yeps
[16:25] <abhi_> Hi everyone. I have installed the kali linux successfully on virtual box. My base system is ubuntu. Everything seems to be working perfect except for one. I cant see " WLAN0" in kali linux. Please help...
[16:26] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: Well, it's all installed now and I've done a bunch of config already.
[16:26] <usr13_> gkimball: Don't expect to get full functionallity from wubi.  I, for one, am not at all an expert on wubi.  Maybe someone else can help.
[16:26] <SolarisBoy> zykotick9: another idea since your playing files as OS - use a VM with bridged networking
[16:26] <usr13_> !wubi | gkimball
[16:26] <SonikkuAmerica> !kali | abhi_
[16:26] <SolarisBoy> grr that was for gkimball
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> abhi_: the interfaces presented to the guest are virtual, so you will not see wlan0
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> abhi_: you will see a wired connection as the network hardware is fake
[16:26] <zykotick9> abhi_: try #vbox would be my suggestion.  typically vbox is gonna pass a virtual-eth0 to guests, you want access to the real hardware.
[16:26] <SonikkuAmerica> !kali | abhi_
[16:26] <SonikkuAmerica> Dangit
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> Gotta wair
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> abhi_: Kali Linux isn't supported here
[16:27] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: I was using VirtualBox within Windows at first but I was having issues with web sites that had certain media on them in Chrome. It would start flashing black and just generally not work.
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> !backtrack | abhi_
[16:29] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: assuming your machine is a decent level of a performance [mem,cpu,etc] (should be a easy win a company box) - i would say make sure you have you Guest utilities installed on the target system especially whatever X11 and display stuff they have - and ensure to supply a proper amount of memory - or better make sure whatever OS you install as a guest isn't defaulting to using demanding display managers -
[16:30] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: you can do other things like run an X for Windows fork and just forwarding X from your VM's to get better performance from your display in your VM's
[16:30] <Guest45034> why use vm
[16:30] <SolarisBoy> scroll up - you'll see why i told him that -
[16:30] <Guest45034> go directly to windows and
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Guest45034: its good for testing stuff, web devs will want the true windows experience in browsers in the OS
[16:30] <SolarisBoy> exactly
[16:30] <SuperLag> In the interest of shortening the install, and saving a little space... (to make a VM template) is there any way to skip the download & install of language packs?
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Guest45034: saves having to reboot between
[16:31] <SolarisBoy> vm easily destroyed rebuilt - especially now with tools like vagrant
[16:31] <Mdi3> hi everybody
[16:31] <Guest45034> yeah i guess
[16:31] <Mdi3> I have a problem with Firefox , can anybody help me ?
[16:31] <SolarisBoy> you can basically auto spin up VM's configured with the tools you need and bring them down when they aren't needed
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Mdi3: details please
[16:31] <SolarisBoy> versus trying to use wubi to setup a dev environment which isn't scalable at all -
[16:31] <SuperLag> SolarisBoy: vagrant++
[16:31] <SuperLag> I'm using it with vmware
[16:32] <Mdi3> everytime i quit firefox with more than one tab, it asks me if I want to save the tabs for the next use. Even if I click "do not ask this question again" , it asks it EVERY TIME
[16:32] <gkimball> SolarisBoy: Thanks for the advice. I will see what works best for me here.
[16:32] <SolarisBoy> yea im using with vbox (actually as we speak) im thinking of testing it with some other providers soon
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> Mdi3: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[16:32] <SolarisBoy> gkimball: sure
[16:32] <Mdi3> I've looked for a solution on forums for a long time, but despite the fact that many other people has had the same issue, can't find a solution
[16:33] <Mdi3> ActionParsnip, Linux Mint 13 Maya \n \l
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Mdi3: mint isnt supported here

[16:33] <Mdi3> ActionParsnip, oh ok , too bad :(
[16:33] <Mdi3> ActionParsnip, thank you anyway i'll try my chance there !!
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> Mdi3: your fellow Mint users will help you, they have their own channel on that chat server
[16:34] <SuperLag> SolarisBoy: you happen to know if it's possibly to have an English-only install, and skip all the language packs?

[16:35] <yo_mama> what is the latest version of google chromium for ubuntu?
[16:35] <Guest45034> superkabel

[16:35] <ActionParsnip> !info chromium-browser
[16:36] <Guest45034> !info
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: there may be a PPA with a later build, but that is the version in the official repos and is supported here
[16:36] <jeevanus> hai, im using ubuntustudio 12.04 - 2GB RAM and and 3GB of swap space. Hibernate is not working as it says swap space not enough
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> Guest45034: !info needs a package name
[16:36] <Guest45034> !info chromium-browser
[16:36] <yo_mama> the latest version for windows is 27
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: so?
[16:37] <jeevanus> i have a app named Sysinfo, which in Memory column, it says "no swap"
[16:37] <jeevanus> can some one help me in this?
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: that is the packaged version in the official repos
[16:37] <deadmund> jeevanus: run the command swapon
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: buntu isn't always bang up to date in the repos
[16:37] <deadmund> jeevanus: specifically, swapon -a
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: what is so different in the 27 version compared to the 25 version exactly?
[16:38] <yo_mama> so google doesn't make chromium?
[16:38] <deadmund> yo_mama:
[16:38] <jeevanus> swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=3637663a-04d3-4ff3-a44f-df41f86059cd
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: the code is similar, but there are proprietary blobs which go in and they call it chome
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: chromium is the open source version without flash or pdf reader, and so forth
[16:39] <SuperLag> ActionParsnip: I thought it came with flash still?
[16:39] <deadmund> yo_mama: chromium (the browser) is an open source project on which chrome is based on.  It is called 'chromium' not 'google chromium'
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: again, why is having the 27 version rather than the 25 version so key?
[16:39] <yo_mama> it's crazy not to include flash
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> SuperLag: not chromium (as far as I am aware), although it can be copied over ;)
[16:39] <deadmund> jeevanus: just a sec
[16:39] <deadmund> pm me??
[16:39] <jeevanus> hmm
[16:40] <DJones> yo_mama: I guess technically, the Ubuntu version of Chromium is always more up to date than the MS WIndows version, in that Chromium isn't provided by Microsoft whereas it is provided by Ubuntu, however both Windows & Ubuntu allow you to manually install versions that are more up to date than officially provided
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> yo_mama: you may find a PPA with the 27 version, but you have failed to answer my simple "what is teh difference" question so I'll assume you are just looking at version numbers.
[16:40] <jeevanus> deadmund: i tried some things from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#What_is_swappiness_and_how_do_I_change_it.3F - may be changed some settings
[16:41] <deadmund> jeevanus: you def did.  I know how to solve the problem.  PM me?
[16:41] <sometwo> I am having issues mounting a nfs share with kerberos on 10.04. When running without allow_weak_crypto there is no communication with the kdc. when running with allow_weak_crypto, it does 2 TGS_REQ to the kdc, first one with AES256-CTS-HMAC-SHA1-96(18) which succeeds, then the second kdc it only requests some DES cryptos 1, 3, 2. These are rejected by the server and it returns bad_encryption_type. What is up here?
[16:41] <yo_mama> ActionParsnip: I'm no expert I'm just looking at version numbers :)

[16:44] <SolarisBoy> yes there is
[16:45] <jrib> yo_mama: it's a serious question; there aren't any services running by default that listen to the outside world on any ports
[16:45] <Tylerjd> ufw, great firewalll
[16:45] <SolarisBoy> ufw isn't a firewall it's a configuration utility for iptables
[16:45] <SolarisBoy> the iptables stupifier i like =)
[16:45] <yo_mama> jrib: facepalm!
[16:45] <Tylerjd> Well, yeah, it just makes iptables stupidly easy to use
[16:45] <SolarisBoy> or hard depending on what you want to do
[16:46] <SolarisBoy> try rate limiting with ufw - have fun
[16:46] <Tylerjd> True... true
[16:46] <Tylerjd> but ufw add ssh
[16:46] <Tylerjd> boom, popped a hole for ssh
[16:46] <SolarisBoy> thats the part i like of it Tylerjd  =)
[16:47] <SolarisBoy> and the presets for apps like samba and so - so you don't have to put all those ports in and such
[16:47] <SolarisBoy> they do have a facility for just adding rules - i think it's like some ufw-after.conf and some ufw-before.conf nonsense they do to merge your custom iptables rules  and things added via ufw - so ultimatly i do like it a lot
[16:48] <jrib> yo_mama: not sure what you mean
[16:49] <Tylerjd> Yeah, I have done that when setting up an ubuntu box as a OpenVPN endpoint/router

[16:58] <Embolalia> Does Canonical still offer paid support for Ubuntu? I'm working for a small business that's going to hit the XP support freeze like a brick wall, and we don't want to do the same thing again in 5 years, so we're looking at Linux as an alternative.

[16:59] <raven> /dev/sdb contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table.  However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should.  Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables.  Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table.  Is this a GPT partition table?
[16:59] <SonikkuAmerica> raven: Did you dd to that disk? If so, that error will show up.
[16:59] <Embolalia> I'd be fine with supporting it myself, but I'm moving out of town in a few months and we just don't have the budget for an actual IT guy.

[17:07] <Embolalia> Tylerjd, basically, this is a company filled with "not-computer-people". We basically need someone to call when the limited Google skills fail. If I were full-time for the foreseeable future, I could fill that role. But I'm not, so I can't.

[17:08] <jeevanus> how to enable hibernate? when I hibernate it says like this - failed to hibernate - not authorized
[17:08] <SonikkuAmerica> Embolalia: Interesting.
[17:09] <mccartney> is there a channel i can go to that has people who like to help with fresh ubuntu users?
[17:09] <SonikkuAmerica> mccartney: #ubuntu-beginners
[17:09] <libpenguin> raven: just mkdosfs it and it will be fine......it needs simple formating
[17:10] <mccartney> Thank you.
[17:10] <Embolalia> SonikkuAmerica, well, I say "fine". Doing it as a RemoteApp (sort of like X forwarding, basically) doesn't really work. But getting a whole desktop is fine.
[17:10] <SonikkuAmerica> Embolalia: And with that bit of knowledge about the "not-computer-people," it sounds like they probably look at you as if you'd grown a second head if you mention IRC...
[17:10] <Embolalia> exactly
[17:11] <SonikkuAmerica> Embolalia: Well yeah, I can see where you'd run into problems... at least VNC and RDP work.
[17:11] <jeevanus> any one help me in hibernation?
[17:11] <libpenguin> hot to setup hotspot in ubuntu ? there was an option in create new network connections before to createhotspot but i deleted it and now its disappeared....how to get it back ?
[17:11] <john112233> how to go back to gnome basic? I dont want to use unity.
[17:11] <Embolalia> SonikkuAmerica, RDP isn't perfect, but it's good enough. It doesn't support the RemoteApp setup we use currently, but a whole desktop is fine.
[17:12] <Embolalia> SonikkuAmerica, so the plan is, we have one user who's on a dual-monitor setup. He puts the app on one, and his other stuff on the other. So a full-screen whole desktop will be fine on the one monitor.
[17:12] <SonikkuAmerica> Embolalia: Well... I would suggest talking to amjjawad, founder of the Start Ubuntu project, but he's debating about taking a leave of absence right now.

[17:21] <usr13_> phil_: There's your problem.
[17:21] <usr13_> phil_: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf   #Add line:  nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:21] <usr13_> phil_: You probably need to edit your router's config to give out nameserver of your choosing.

[17:22] <mercfate> hello
[17:22] <usr13_> phil_: Just add nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> to bottom of file.

[17:22] <phil_> usr13_: OK, will I need to restart?
[17:23] <usr13_> phil_: Actually, you might just replace nameserver  <IP_ADDRESS> with nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>  And no need to restart.
[17:23] <JohnT> Hi everybody :-)
[17:23] <usr13_> phil_: Remember to edit your router's config when you get a chance.

[17:33] <Dyla[a]n> Anyone here that can help ne with something?
[17:34] <phil_> usr13_: I have to restart.. I keep freezing. BRB
[17:34] <sambagirl> why not just ask your question?
[17:34] <bazhang> sambagirl, where did you get gnome3.8? the ppa?
[17:34] <bazhang> Dyla[a]n, please ask the channel
[17:34] <sambagirl> bashing yes
[17:35] <bazhang> sambagirl, contact the maintainers, there are ample warnings about it
[17:35] <Dyla[a]n> I downloaded the ubuntu.iso ( ubuntu desktop ) and it's in winrar. I need to burn it to a DVD-r, right? How should I go on about beginning this process?
[17:35] <bazhang> sambagirl, PPA are not supported for this very reason
[17:35] <sambagirl> i wanted to take advantage of the panel indicators which were eliminated
[17:35] <bazhang> Dyla[a]n, it should not be extracted like that
[17:35] <Dyla[a]n> I haven't extracted it yet.
[17:35] <sambagirl> to be honest bashing i had problems regardless.
[17:35] <g0to> Dyla[a]n, if you downloaded it from an official source, you just got an .iso file ready to burn
[17:35] <usr13_> Dyla[a]n:  What is the file name?
[17:36] <bazhang> Dyla[a]n, use something like infrarecorder to burn the iso to disc
[17:36] <sambagirl> but i'll keep that in mind bazhang
[17:36] <Dyla[a]n> I downloaded it from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?release=latest&bits=32&distro=desktop&status=zeroc
[17:36] <sambagirl> all the other systems here will stay 10.04 but i
[17:37] <sambagirl> will experiment with 13.04
[17:37] <sambagirl> on this one
[17:37] <bazhang> Dyla[a]n, thats fine, use one of the apps mentioned to burn iso to dvd
[17:37] <g0to> Dyla[a]n, even if you can explore the inners of an iso file using your winrar software, the file itself is ready to burn and should not be modified
[17:37] <Dyla[a]n> It's just sitting in winrar though...

[17:52] <kiru> i'm a beginner,like to contribute to ubuntu please help
[17:52] <raven> really cant get my hard drive to format :(
[17:52] <bazhang> raven, with gparted?
[17:52] <tfitts> I just added a user through the command line and my shell just gives me a $ without any extras even though my .bashrc looks like it has all the code for a regular shell like I'm used to
[17:53] <Guest45034> whats going on
[17:53] <raven> yeah
[17:53] <usr13_> phil___: You have to connect to the wireless network and then do it.
[17:53] <Guest45034> where can i advertise for website
[17:53] <bazhang> Guest45034, ask a question
[17:53] <tfitts> do I need to do something to get a full shell?
[17:53] <bazhang> related to ubuntu Guest45034
[17:53] <phil___> usr13_: That was connected to wireless. I unplugged the cable, and waited for WiFi to connect
[17:54] <Guest45034> ok i have my main connection in basement how do i bring upstairs
[17:54] <Guest45034> when i connect to cable line it doesnt work only in basement
[17:54] <usr13_> phil___: And what nameserver were you using at the time?
[17:55] <phil___> usr13_: I'm not sure what you mean... I'm sorry  about that
[17:56] <genii> Guest45034: That doesn't sound like an Ubuntu support problem, more an issue for you to call your ISP about.
[17:56] <usr13_> phil___: I have some work I have to do now, someone lese will help you...
[17:56] <Poolshark_> so in 13.04, when trying to connect an ESXi server to an NFS export, I get an error in ESXi that the server does not support Mount v3 over TCP. I thought the default configuration for nfsd was that it would be version agnostic and support v2, v3, and v4 clients? If not, where is the default behavior set. I can't find anything about versioning in the init script
[17:56] <raven> is there a better way to format a hdd?
[17:56] <phil___> usr13_: Thank you for your time.. Much appreciated
[17:56] <raven> besides gparted.. it keeps giving me errors and freezing while its formatting
[17:59] <FearJesus> catholics go to hell
[17:59] <FearJesus> http://believeintheholybible.blogspot.com/
[17:59] <raven> can someone help me format a hard drive.. gparted wont work
[17:59] <pecanha> hey guys. I'm trying to install two perl modules on ubuntu and having trouble to do it. module BerkeleyDB is not installed	[FAILED] and module Crypt::OpenSSL::AES is not installed	[FAILED]. Here is the log, any idea? http://pastebin.com/7F82NPMM

[18:01] <Bergcube> Laptop with NVIDIA GeForce GT 425M running Ubuntu 12.10. With the X.org Nouveau drivers X was awfully buggy but the console displayed in glorious 1920x1080.  With the NVIDIA-experimental-310 drivers X is perfect, but the console is reduced to 640x480.  I know I can override this by entering kernel directives in GRUB.  Is there any other (smarter / easier) way?
[18:01] <john112233> are there any ppa's for java?
[18:02] <tuo> hello
[18:02] <tuo> list
[18:02] <deezed> Bergcube: which desktop you are using?
[18:04] <Bergcube> deezed ~ Ubuntu default.  In other words Unity.  But to be honest I am not sure that matters?  After all it is the console you go to with <CTRL><ALT><F1> I'm talking about; not the terminal application.
[18:04] <genii> john112233: There is a webupd8team ppa for Oracle Java 7 and 8 at https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/java     ... usual caveats apply, no support here, etcetera
[18:05] <Joshun> hi
[18:05] <Joshun> anybody know how to solve the network issue with CUPS in raring?
[18:05] <trism> pecanha: looks like you need the libdb dev packages and openssl dev packages, though it would seem like we would have both of those in the repos
[18:05] <Joshun> is there another way to broadcast printing
[18:05] <trism> pecanha: maybe libberkeleydb-perl for instance
[18:05] <Joshun> maybe samba will do it as a last resort
[18:05] <bois_> I install gnome-panel but I don't have my taskbar :(  (ubuntu 13.04)
[18:06] <phil___> Can someone help me to get a WiFi card to stop being loaded? I am having too many problems with it, and I just want to use an external antenna
[18:06] <Guest45034> which way are you using to print
[18:06] <trism> bois_: did you select the gnome fallback session on the login screen?
[18:06] <Guest45034> phil unplug the card
[18:06] <phil___> Guest45034: It's internal
 over cups/ipp - my laptop running raring doesn't pick it up
[18:07] <pecanha> trism: worked fine libberkeleydb-perl
[18:07] <bazhang> Guest45034, thats not helpful
[18:07] <pecanha> trism: couldnt find yet the other
[18:07] <Guest45034> FN F8
[18:08] <bois_> trism: no
[18:08] <Guest45034> phil function f8 and use wifi connection
[18:08] <deezed> Bergcube: The only possible easier way I can find is trying to install this startupmanager to be able to change console resolutions. Check in: http://forum.linuxcareer.com/threads/1661-Change-tty-font-size-with-Grub-2-boot-console-resolution
[18:08] <phil___> I tried everything to try to get it to work correctly, but nothing I tried works. usr13_ was helping me, but had to go
[18:08] <Joshun> FN+F8 isn't guaranteed
[18:08] <trism> bois_: that's how you use the gnome-panel session
[18:08] <trism> pecanha: yeah I don't see the other one either
[18:08] <deezed> Bergcube: option 3
[18:09] <john112233> genii : is it best to install java7 or java8
[18:09] <Guest45034> joshun it all depends on the cpu
[18:09] <trism> pecanha: you could try installing libssl-dev before grabbing it from cpan
[18:09] <Bergcube> deezed ~ I'll take a look right away!
[18:09] <Guest45034> phil what coputer you useing
[18:09] <pecanha> trism: great! it worked perfectly
[18:09] <phil___> Guest45034: Toshiba Satellite L855-s5243

[18:10] <oops_im_a_sysadm> Hi, does anyone know if the Ubuntu 10.04 packages for Ruby Enterprise Edition are expected to work on 12.04?
[18:10] <marianne> Basic hardware question... is there a converter to go from ATX to SATA?
[18:10] <bazhang> marianne, ##hardware
[18:10] <Bergcube> deezed ~ Heh, that looks both easy and like the way to go.  For me at least.  Thanks a lot!
[18:11] <Znoosey> marianne, the easy answer: yes
[18:11] <deezed> Bergcube: no problem!
[18:11] <marianne> Znoosey: know a brand name?
[18:11] <phil___> Joshun: I'm not sure, underscores were set automatically
[18:11] <phil___> Joshun: I didn't see a place to disable in BIOS
[18:12] <Znoosey> marianne, just try googling it, i'm sure there are plenty
[18:12] <marianne> Znoosey: doing that now... thanks

[18:14] <phil___> Joshun: at the risk of sounding stupid, how do I find it?
[18:14] <genii> john112233: There is a problem with Eclipse if you use Java 8, where it can't load for instance the Android SDK stuff. So version 7 is recommended
[18:14] <Joshun> phil___ give the output of 'lsmod'
[18:14] <Joshun> you might want to pastebin it
[18:14] <K4k> I have Ubuntu configured with nslcd to cache ldap logins for laptops but if the laptop is left disconnected from the network for an extended period of time (several days) and I try to login, eventually it will tell me I've logged in with cached credentials but just kick me back to the login prompt. Does anyone here know what option needs to be extended/changed to keep the cache forever?
[18:14] <Guest45034><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[18:14] <Guest45034><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[18:15] <john112233> ooh great. thanks for the info genii.. :)

[18:16] <Joshun> has anybody got network printing to work in raring?
[18:18] <tgm4883> Joshun, yes
[18:18] <Joshun> tgm4883 - how?
[18:18] <tgm4883> I have a HP color laserjet cp1025cw
[18:19] <Joshun> tgm4883 - as in <non-network printer> -> cups server -> remote client
[18:19] <Joshun> the server is fine
[18:19] <tgm4883> Joshun, I haven't done that in quite some time
[18:19] <Joshun> but raring doesn't seem to detect remote printers even manually
[18:19] <K4k> Joshun: I have not, but a quick search shows that 13.04 brought changes to network printing in the form of PWG instead of CUPS. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseNotes for more information. Hope that helps send you in the right direction...
[18:19] <tgm4883> Joshun, my printer has an ethernet port
[18:20] <Joshun> thanks K4k will look at that
[18:20] <Seven_Six_Two> Where is "up a directory" in the new 13.04 nautilus?
[18:20] <DJHenjin_1> Hey guys, my / currently resides on a 20 GB Raid partition, I have a 90 GB Raid partition that I would either like to use to extend / or move / onto, then use the 20GB partition for something else.
[18:21] <Joshun> k4k - would upgrading the 12.10 server to 13.04 fix it?
[18:21] <sambagirl> what should i use to backup my ubuntu so i don't lose this environment and if i ruin it can restore it back? clonezilla? backula? so i have a perfect image?
[18:21] <K4k> Joshun: unfortunately I'm still 12.04 on everything so I do not know. Sorry.
[18:21] <EpicBob> Hello all, I want to install Ubuntu from a cd onto a jump drive on a laptop, install ssh and set a static IP, then put it into a desktop. Will this break anything in ubuntu?
[18:22] <phil___> Joshun: did you see my paste bin?
[18:22] <Joshun> phil___ not sure whether I got it
[18:22] <phil___> Joshun: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5739564/
[18:22] <Joshun> thanks
[18:23] <Joshun> phil___ i'm guessing rtl8187 is your wifi module
[18:23] <bazhang> http://askubuntu.com/questions/293985/what-are-the-new-nautilus-3-6-shortcuts-in-ubuntu-13-04  Seven_Six_Two  this?
[18:23] <phil___> Joshun: Thank you for helping me.. Yes
[18:23] <Joshun> phil___ hang on a sec
[18:23] <Joshun> phil___ do you have more than one wifi device plugged in currently?
[18:23] <Joshun> we need to be sure to find the right one
[18:24] <phil___> Joshun: No, I unplugged the external
[18:24] <Joshun> good
[18:25] <Joshun> phil___ I think adding 'blacklist rtl8187' to the end of the file I mentioned earlier should do the trick
[18:25] <Seven_Six_Two> bazhang, that will do, thanks. I can't believe that they're not visible at all. How is a new user supposed to figure that out?
[18:25] <phil___> Joshun: OK, I'll give that a shot. Should I restart after that?
[18:26] <Joshun> phil___ yes  (you can remove the module by hand but safer to restart)
[18:26] <Joshun> you may want to add a comment to the file if you want
[18:26] <Joshun> just to remind yourself you edited it
[18:26] <phil___> Joshun: I will save a backup. Thank you for helping me
[18:27] <Joshun> phil___ no probs
[18:28] <DJHenjin_1> Question, would it be easier to move my / partition to a bigger partition, and change the designation in /etc/fstab or to extend the / partition with the free partition. also which would produce less downtime on my server
[18:29] <bazhang> DJHenjin_1, how much data, ie how big are the partitions
[18:29] <DJHenjin_1> bazhang I stated above. but here. 20GB current / partition 90 GB free partition,. 16GB of data resides currently in /
[18:30] <bazhang> whoops missed it apologies
[18:30] <BluesKaj> DJHenjin_1, is your / filling up ? Is that why you want to expand it to a 90G partition , with autoremove and autoclean commands one can keep / to a minimum
[18:31] <DJHenjin_1> BluesKaj: I am a webhost. /var/www holds all the hosting data. I could symlink /var/www to a bigger partition, but / is getting too big anyways, and I originally intended for it to be on the 90 GB partition anyways
[18:31] <bazhang> DJHenjin_1, thats a close call, resize can take some time, yet copying over data as well
[18:31] <DJHenjin_1> bazhang: SSD's
[18:32] <bazhang> then a resize I would suppose DJHenjin_1 though BluesKaj perhaps has a better solution than myself
[18:32] <BluesKaj> DJHenjin_1, ok , understood
[18:32] <DJHenjin_1> I would prefer to do the resize myself anyways.
[18:32] <bazhang> ssd should speed that a bit
[18:33] <DJHenjin_1> both partitions are on the same physical drive already.
[18:34] <DJHenjin_1> ill check out mdadm's way to combine 2 partitions, but I may need some help
[18:35] <DJHenjin_1> note, this is an Active server that I cannot take offline for very long at all
[18:38] <DJHenjin_1> bazhang: What do you suggest?
[18:39] <aladds> my wireless no longer wants to connect; is there a way to reset network manager or something? I've tried rebooting, bringing the interfaces down/up and removing and re-adding the configuration. The same configuration works on another computer.
[18:39] <aladds> it's n atheros AR2413 adaptor
[18:39] <bazhang> DJHenjin_1, your idea of checking mdadm seems sound, I'm at sea with that though
[18:40] <DJHenjin_1> bazhang: does that mean yu are uneasy with the idea?
[18:40] <Psycholiquid71> how would I copy a file form a windows share to a linux terminal location every 30 seconds?
[18:40] <Psycholiquid71> I was thinking rsync but am not sure
[18:41] <bazhang> DJHenjin_1, not at all; at sea simply means lost, or no further ideas. apologies
[18:41] <DJHenjin_1> bazhang: ah, I was unsure of the meaning
[18:43] <jdoles> Is it possible to "upgrade" Debian to Ubuntu?
[18:43] <DJHenjin_1> jdoles: AFAIK, not easily...
[18:43] <roler> is it smart to use unattended-updates on an ubuntu server? Could it ever take the system down if an update fails?
[18:43] <bazhang> jdoles, no
[18:43] <dmavroid> usr13_: Hello again...i finally i can get fglrx working with xubuntu. since ubuntu desktop is much greater than xubuntu (in my opinion) i gave a shot at the web site you provided me with. i tried averything but still no luck with ubuntu. this is strange though that i can use fglrx in xubuntu but not in ubuntu dont you think?
[18:47] <dmavroid> adamk_: good evening are you online?
[18:48] <adamk_> dmavroid, Yes.
[18:49] <dmavroid> adamk_: i finally i can get fglrx working with xubuntu. since ubuntu desktop is much greater than xubuntu (in my opinion) i gave a shot at the web site you provided me with. i tried averything but still no luck with ubuntu. this is strange though that i can use fglrx in xubuntu but not in ubuntu dont you think?
[18:49] <adamk_> dmavroid, Sounds like you did something different in installing and configuring the driver between xubuntu and ubuntu.  There is no reason for it to work in one but not the other.
[18:50] <niel> the Ubuntu download is ultra slow today
[18:51] <niel> and hours like really?
[18:51] <dmavroid> adamk_: sound strange to me as well but trust me i have done nothing different at all. at this point i am using the xubuntu. if i log in with ubuntu the unity will be off :S
[18:51] <genii> Maybe compositing is the problem.
[18:51] <bazhang> niel, http or torrents
[18:51] <niel> Im doing it for my friend and hes trying with the windows installer
[18:52] <bazhang> niel, wubi?
[18:53] <dmavroid> adamk_: also the cpu temperature has dropped as well in xubuntu
[18:54] <niel> yes wubi
[18:54] <dmavroid> adamk_: i am letting you know because i do believe it was a well remembered experience. :P ! enjoy the rest of your day

[19:02] <lolinux> Hi, any idea why do I get an error when I'm trying to install wine on Ubuntu 12.04?
[19:02] <mah454> I use Laptop Vostro 3350 with Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series . I installed "amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run"
[19:03] <mah454> but after restart lightdm does not start !
[19:03] <mah454> How can fix this problem ? (Debug)
[19:03] <zehexx> don't answer my question. thx. maybe my question not important.thx!
[19:03] <mah454> I use Ubuntu 13.04
[19:05] <mah454> this is lightdm log : http://paste.ubuntu.com/5739704/
[19:05] <joeytwid1le_> zehexx: gpm
[19:06] <baudtrap> mah454 - If i'm not wrong these scripts come with an uninstall. Try something like "amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run --remove" or "amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run --uninstall"
[19:07] <mah454> baudtrap: but i need VGA driver
[19:08] <baudtrap> mah454: what model is you computer?
[19:08] <adamk_> mah454, You should be installing the AMD proprietary driver through the "Additional Drivers" application, not directly from AMD.
[19:08] <lolinux> I'm getting an error message when I am trying to install wine: dpkg: error processing samba4 (--configure):
[19:08] <lolinux> Anyone knows why?
[19:09] <adamk_> mah454, And if that's a laptop with hybrid graphics, getting the AMD GPU working is hit or miss.
[19:10] <baudtrap> adamk_: mah454: Yap! I was kinda hoping the laptop doesn't have a hybrid graphics.
[19:10] <adamk_> baudtrap, What's the output of 'lspci | grep -i vga | wc -l' ?
[19:11] <adamk_> Oh, wait.  Nevermind.
[19:11] <mah454> adamk_: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Seymour [Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series]
[19:11] <adamk_> Got confused.
[19:11] <adamk_> mah454, Is that the only VGA controller listed?
[19:11] <mah454> adamk_: no and this :
[19:11] <mah454> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
[19:12] <adamk_> mah454, Right, so you have a laptop with hybrid graphics.  You *might* be able to get it to work, but you really should stick with the driver packaged by/for Ubuntu.
[19:13] <mah454> adamk_: How can install VGA driver for Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series
[19:13] <mah454> ?
[19:13] <adamk_> mah454, Uninstall the one you downloaded from AMD, reboot, then use the "Addition Drivers" application.
[19:14] <mah454> adamk_: ok , uninstall and reboot
[19:14] <baudtrap> adamk_: mah454: I recently did a fresh install of 13.04 and it seemed to handle my hybrid Nvidia/Intel without additions. Maybe i'm just lucky.
[19:14] <mah454> bye , I will come back ...
[19:14] <adamk_> baudtrap, Does it actually make use of the nvidia GPU?
[19:15] <aarobc> mah454:  I had a bug sometimes with the catalyst application screwing up the scew, you just navigate into the settings and change the scale option
[19:15] <aarobc> Can anyone suggest why I'm unable to change my mouse acceleration options on 13.04 ?
[19:16] <baudtrap> adamk_: I'm kinda  sure it doesn't. My biggest problem was HDMI with sound. Which now works. But 'nvidia-detector' shows nothing
