[00:00] <Sachiru> Hmm.
[00:00] <Sachiru> Of the most common DEs, which has the lightest memory footprint?
[00:00] <ObrienDave> LXDE
[00:00] <Hulksmash> lxde
[00:00] <Hulksmash> my login
[00:01] <daftykins> Sachiru: what are you trying to achieve?
[00:01] <ObrienDave> XFCE being next
[00:01] <squinty> has anyone mentioned lxde yet
[00:01] <ObrienDave> many times :)
[00:01] <Sachiru> @dafty: Basically a computer for my grandma with an old and limited PC
[00:01] <DUKENUKEM> hi guys im trying to download the debug symbols for my kernel, however my apt-get listing only shows 3.13.0-24-generic-dbgsym and I need -32
[00:01] <Sachiru> daftykins, All she needs is Facebook.
[00:01] <daftykins> Sachiru: specification? if you say netbook i'm going to say bury it.
[00:02] <unkn-error> for XDMCP do I need to install something else? libxdmcp6 is already installed
[00:02] <DUKENUKEM> maybe my apt sources are screwed up ?
[00:02] <Sachiru> Worse.
[00:02] <daftykins> Sachiru: CPU/RAM/HDD?
[00:02] <Sachiru> Core2Quad, ancient
[00:02] <Sachiru> Around 2 GB of RAM and 40 GB HDD
[00:02] <daftykins> my desktop is a core 2 quad. that is not worse than a netbook.
[00:02] <Sachiru> She just needs it for the weekly facebook and email
[00:02] <daftykins> that spec is plenty for xubuntu, go with that
[00:03] <daftykins> use 32-bit to save RAM
[00:03] <Hulksmash> my new lubuntu install says uuid not found and takes me to initramfs help please?
[00:03] <unkn-error> how can I test if the videodriver has openCL in it?
[00:03] <Sachiru> What's the DE for Xubuntu?
[00:04] <Hulksmash> xfce
[00:04] <Hulksmash> hence the X
[00:04] <MrMonkey31> what the hax?? they're matching letters now?
[00:04] <daftykins> Sachiru: i've used xubuntu on a far less capable system, it'll be fine as long as that hard disk is ok. if that 40GB is maxtor, i wouldn't be surprised if it's already dead
[00:05] <Mugen_Deutsche> i already installed the install unity-tweak-tool. how can i enable now the effects like burning folders if i close them ?
[00:05] <Mugen_Deutsche> or like the cubes and some effects ?
[00:05] <Mugen_Deutsche> any idea ?
[00:08] <Sachiru> @dafty: I'm actually inclined to buy her a 64gb SSD
[00:08] <Sachiru> One of those el cheapo SSDs
[00:08] <daftykins> sounds like overkill
[00:08] <v> hi
[00:08] <v> hi everyone
[00:09] <sarink> i'm trying to ssh to an external server over port 443 (other servers over default port work fine). i cannot do this from my local network. i know it works outside my network, because if i tether on my phone, i can ssh to it. what do i need to enable on my own router so i can ssh out over 443?
[00:09] <ObrienDave> Sachiru, and when the SSD dies in 6 months, you have to reinstall everything. buy a cheap HDD, years of reliability
[00:09] <daftykins> v: got a question?
[00:10] <Sachiru> SSD dies in 6 months?
[00:10] <daftykins> very dubious claim, that.
[00:10] <Sachiru> There will be very few writes done to it
[00:10] <v> is xubuntu based on debian?
[00:10] <Sachiru> Due to once-a-week-three-hours-at-that usage, and, well, SSDs have come a long way
[00:10] <Sachiru> When it comes to endurance
[00:11] <DavyCrockett> xubuntu is based on ubuntu is based on debian
[00:12] <ObrienDave> xubuntu is ubuntu with a different DE
[00:12] <v> Is Chromium web Browser of Google? Or google stealed it?
[00:12] <DavyCrockett> yea thats what i meant
[00:13] <ObrienDave> google took chromium and made chrome from it
[00:13] <v> and they took linux and made android
[00:13] <daftykins> not really the same thing.
[00:14] <Aladiah> how to make Lubuntu 14.04.1 hibernate ?
[00:14] <ObrienDave> since all are FOSS, it's not stealing
[00:15] <Aladiah> I tryed this http://askubuntu.com/questions/94754/how-to-enable-hibernation   but it dont work !
[00:16] <v> how I disable join quit user messages in xchat
[00:17] <ObrienDave> xchat does not have that function. change to HexChat
[00:17] <bazhang> sure it does
[00:17] <Mugen_Deutsche> is hexchat good?
[00:17] <bazhang> right click channel name v
[00:18] <ObrienDave> HexChat is just like Xchat except currently maintained
[00:18] <v> I knew that was right click something thx
[00:18] <bazhang> welcome
[00:19] <bazhang> there are other differences as well ObrienDave
[00:19] <ObrienDave> not enough to be concerned with IMHO
[00:20] <xpcjx87> Hi, I just have a simple question.
[00:21] <daftykins> xpcjx87: me too, what is your question?
[00:21] <ObrienDave> we won't know until you ask ;)
[00:21] <xpcjx87> Regarding Ubuntu Studio, how do I easily change the computer name? -OR- What is the root password on a fresh install?
[00:22] <Sa[i]nT> The root password should be whatever you made it when you installed it.
[00:23] <ObrienDave> !root | xpcjx87
[00:23] <xpcjx87> I didn't set any root password.
[00:23] <v> I have a lot of questions, Is Universe finite? What happens when we die? Does alien inteligent life exist? If universe has an end what happens when we reach that? How Universe started?
[00:24] <Sa[i]nT> Just do $ sudo -s
[00:24] <ObrienDave> v, one answer for you, of course it makes a noise, it's a FRIGGIN tree ;P
[00:24] <Aladiah> i found this https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html  is a little diferent from what i did doesn it?
[00:25] <ObrienDave> !42 | v
[00:25] <v> 42 /
[00:25] <v> ?
[00:26] <xpcjx87> 1
[00:26] <xpcjx87> 42 / 1
[00:26] <ObrienDave> 21*2
[00:26] <v> why 42
[00:27] <xpcjx87> ecause, Minecraft
[00:27] <Sa[i]nT> Cuz, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
[00:27] <ObrienDave> "so long, and thanks for all the fish"
[00:27] <Bashing-om> xpcjx87: to chnage computer name edit the files " /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname" change the field that has the current 'name' to what you desire .
[00:28] <garrie> Hiya
[00:28] <xpcjx87> Yes, I know to change the hostname file, but I need root privilege.
[00:29] <Bashing-om> !sudo | xpcjx87
[00:29] <v> 42= 5 +37=11+31=13+29=19+23
[00:29] <xpcjx87> (withOUT commands)
[00:29] <xpcjx87> I
[00:29] <xpcjx87> I'd like to do the change outside of Terminal.
[00:29] <Sa[i]nT> Dude.
[00:30] <Sa[i]nT> sudo echo "yourhostname" > /etc/hostname;
[00:30] <k1l_> !ot > v
[00:31] <xpcjx87> Permission denied.
[00:31] <spearhead> xpcjx87, you can open the text editor as root with gksudo gedit
[00:31] <Aladiah> I have this inside my Fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/8555976/ so where i should put my UUID 47773e3b-0e01-464e-8b9f-c1fab63f1646
[00:31] <Aladiah> I think it is already there doesn it ?
[00:31] <xpcjx87> spearhead, aha, now we're getting somewhere.
[00:32] <unkn-error> normally in ubuntu the root user is disabled, is there a way to "see" if the root user is enabled or disabled?
[00:32] <Aladiah> wxl :
[00:32] <ObrienDave> !root | unkn-error
[00:32] <unkn-error> if a user will use "sudo su" the root user will be enabled?
[00:32] <Sa[i]nT> sudo -s; takes you into root.
[00:32] <xpcjx87> aha, sudo su worked.
[00:32] <ObrienDave> so does sudo -i
[00:33] <unkn-error> yes
[00:33] <Aladiah> Where i should put the new line new line UUID=a6d4c93d-85f2-4c08-9a80-a1e18264846e none swap sw 0 0 ?  at the text end ?
[00:35] <unkn-error> but for example I have this user "U" and user U will do "sudo su" in terminal/konsole. Now, normally the Display Manager will NOT allow a root login, but if that user will do a "sudo su" will the root be enabled, and if the Display Manager is configured to accept root logins will do a root login into the Desktop Env?
[00:35] <Bashing-om> Aladiah: see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 <-bodhi.zazen-Understanding fstab .
[00:36] <spearhead> unkn-error, sudo less /etc/shadow and see if there is anything after the first colon on the root line
[00:36] <daftykins> unkn-error: 'sudo su' shouldn't ever be used in Ubuntu
[00:36] <Sachiru> If by "root enabled" you mean logging in as root, IIRC you can't do that. Ever.
[00:37] <Sachiru> Switching into root, sure. Logging in as root? No.
[00:38] <garrie> Where's the ubuntu chat irc?
[00:38] <unkn-error> spearhead, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556006/
[00:38] <spearhead> Sachiru, yes you can...
[00:38] <daftykins> garrie: #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:38] <unkn-error> so root is enabled in my box?
[00:38] <daftykins> garrie: support questions in here
[00:38] <garrie> I have a support question, worry not.
[00:39] <spearhead> unkn-error, no, if there was a long random character line like on the ui line then the root user would be enabled
[00:39] <xpcjx87> Okay. Done. I did [sudo su] put in my password, typed [hostname X551MA] then typed [hostname] to check.
[00:39] <unkn-error> oh, so here is the sublime difference, " Switching into root, sure. Logging in as root"
[00:39] <garrie> I'm in the UK, and therefore us a UK keyboard layout. However, during boot up (i.e. while logging in and while putting in encryption pass), the keyboard defaults to US
[00:39] <xpcjx87> See? A Simple answer like that can be done easily.
[00:39] <garrie> This makes my password, etc, a pain in the ass to enter.
[00:39] <Sachiru> spearhead, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo <-- Apparently you cannot log in as root directly
[00:39] <garrie> How to make it recognise uk layout at all stages?
[00:39] <Sachiru> Allow me to correct my statement, you cannot log in as root directly
[00:39] <spearhead> Sachiru, I have done it many times...
[00:40] <ObrienDave> right
[00:40] <Sachiru> I'm wrong then
[00:41] <k1l_> on standard ubuntu root account got no password so you cant login. on ubuntu you use sudo if you need root rights.
[00:41] <ObrienDave> ok spearhead enlighten us as to how you login as root
[00:41] <spearhead> after you enable the root password you can then at the login screen choose to type in a user name and password
[00:42] <k1l_> spearhead: and that is not the ubuntu way. so it doesnt matter in here
[00:43] <spearhead> k1l_ whether or not it is the ubuntu way, it can be done, I do not recommend it... but it can be done
[00:43] <k1l_> *sigh*
[00:46] <spearhead> k1l_, one thing I am frustrated with the ubuntu community about is not informing people about stuff that can be done... whether or not it is recommended... let people make their own decisions
[00:46] <Sachiru> spearhead, that is a dangerous thing to do
[00:47] <daftykins> they can find that info out for themselves, we stick to policy so that people don't break things.
[00:47] <Sachiru> I.E. I can inform a user that if he wants to uninstall a program he can do rm -rf /usr/bin
[00:47] <spearhead> then at least done tell people that something can't be done... just ignore it
[00:47] <Sachiru> It's not recommended
[00:47] <spearhead> *dont
[00:47] <k1l_> spearhead: ok, then stay in here and help every beginner who messed with the rootaccount. but since you (like the other linux-gurus before) will not do this please stick to the ubuntu way in here.
[00:48] <k1l_> !sudo
[00:48] <sysop2> how many files can I copy at once with cp?  I am on 64bit 14.04
[00:48] <Sachiru> I only wish that Ubuntu fixed it so that running sudo -s is not necessary for manipulating KSM parameters
[00:48] <spearhead> I tell everyone I talk to about it that using the root acount is not recommended and they should use sudo for everything...
[00:49] <unkn-error> which is the difference between sudo /etc/init.d/ssh reload/restart?
[00:49] <Sachiru> sudo echo "2500" > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/sleep_millisecs does not work, I actually have to sudo -s and echo from there
[00:49] <Sachiru> Reload reloads the configuration. Restart kills and restarts the service
[00:49] <docmur> I'm having an annoying issue where I'm trying to use NameVirtualHosts, I've posted my  default.conf file and my /usr/sbin/apache2 -S output, the problem is I never actually set  the Main Document Root to /var/www, but more so all the sites seem to go to the same  location, which isn't any thing I specify, my error.log doens't seem to say anything about
[00:49] <docmur>  it, this ismy pastebin:  http://pastebin.com/w
[00:49] <docmur> UBvdCNB
[00:49] <k1l_> i think we are done with the root account login discussion. we got the channel policy according to the ubuntu standard. so please focus on support again
[00:50] <Sachiru> AKA if you're currently connected via SSH to a box, reload can reload the config without killing your session
[00:50] <unkn-error> thank you Sachiru
[00:50] <daftykins> 7pm your time :>
[00:50] <daftykins> oops ignore that
[00:50] <CamelChase> hi. how do i get to an overview  similar to what i would get in gnome shell hot corner?
[00:50] <sysop2> I am trying copy 75 million files(yes thats the actual number)  from a disk to a nfs mount point and was wondering if I just do it with one cp command?
[00:51] <daftykins> sysop2: use rsync
[00:51] <sysop2> sure but why?
[00:51] <sysop2> rysnc has failed copying that very same data several times, it chokes on that many files
[00:52] <CamelChase> how do i see the desktop? is there a button? i can't find
[00:52] <sysop2> but I was doing it on an older machine centos machine. I am now on a brand new 14.04 machine. and want to know if it can handle it.
[00:52] <slacko82191> if only your were using winblows, you could drag & drop....lol
[00:52] <CamelChase> i think unity is horrible and unintuitive
[00:53] <sysop2> I have full x installed I can drag and drop it, but thought the less overhead the better.
[00:53] <jcorgan> i have isc-dhcp-server installed on a multi-NIC server, but only want to serve DHCP on eth1.  However, even though I've set INTERFACES="eth1" in the /etc/defaults/isc-dhcp-server file, it still listens on both nics
[00:53] <slacko82191> yep for sure
[00:53] <unkn-error> CamelChase, you are right but see also the good part, it is Different and brings innovation
[00:54] <jcorgan> how do i get dhcpd to only listen on one NIC?  otherwise, it is working fine, but i don't want to have an open port on the other NIC
[00:54] <sysop2> CamelChase,  I use kde have for years and refuse to use unity.
[00:54] <daftykins> jcorgan: configure it to only operate on one interface. it's pretty basic stuff.
[00:54] <daftykins> oh you claimed that already, ok nm
[00:54] <jcorgan> daftykins: i just said that i've done that, but it isn't working
[00:54] <CamelChase> unkn-error: i try. but can you tell me, is there an overview similar to gnome shell, the one i'd get from hot corner?
[00:55] <spearhead> sysop2, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/110282/cp-max-source-files-number-arguments-for-copy-utility
[00:55] <sysop2> thanks
[00:55] <unkn-error> CamelChase, I hate gnome, I like to use xfce for tasks on the test-box-server
[00:56] <unkn-error> I can't figure out what the hell is going in the "gome" guys head, is really sucks for servers
[00:56] <Aladiah> wxl : i follow your guide http://www.jasom.net/how-to-enable-hibernation-in-lubuntu-14-04 then it says " find GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="". Change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="resume=UUID=47773e3b-0e01-464e-8b9f-c1fab63f1646" and save it. " but i only have this line inside my grub http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556098/ GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="locale=pt_PT" , i should delete "locale=pt_PT" ?
[00:56] <CamelChase> unkn-error: well dang
[00:57] <unkn-error> More Over Gnome has some "relationship" or is "in love" with systemD
[00:57] <unkn-error> I don't care so much about systemD, init, upstart etc.
[00:58] <spearhead> unkn-error, I use gnome2 for my server... it works just fine... cause I rarely ever use the gui on my server
[00:58] <unkn-error> but dude, gnome is horrible, and those systemD dependency are UGLY
[00:59] <unkn-error> a www/http/ftp server I guess is fine whitout gui, but some people use servers with gui like 64 CPU core with 128 gb or ram, for Graphical Photo / 3D rendering-processing
[00:59] <Mugen_Deutsche> i am watching video from you tube about how compiz should work. hopefully this will help someone like me who is a newbie in linux ubuntu and compiz
[01:00] <Aladiah>  i should delete "locale=pt_PT" and change it to "resume=UUID=47773e3b-0e01-464e-8b9f-c1fab63f1646" and save it. ?
[01:00] <spearhead> unkn-error, lets move the gui topic to #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to continue
[01:01] <unkn-error> that is a good ideea, but I will stop here (me back 2 work)
[01:03] <germanpianista> hello
[01:03] <Aladiah> wxl there isnt none GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" instead there is a GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="locale=pt_PT" , i should delete "locale=pt_PT" ?  and change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="resume=UUID=47773e3b-0e01-464e-8b9f-c1fab63f1646" and save it ?

[01:10] <kgwgk> guys. i am going bonkers. i need to use a custom kernel module for a board.  Right after I compile said kernel module, Ubuntu wants to update my kernel. how to stop ubuntu from doing this
[01:11] <germanpianista> any help please? :(
[01:11] <kgwgk> i mean, i have an automated re-build script.. but
[01:11] <kgwgk> why.. am.. ;_;
[01:12] <kgwgk> oh.
[01:12] <kgwgk> germanpianista: lol
[01:12] <kgwgk> i have a steinberg ur22
[01:12] <kgwgk> had to patch the usb-snd-audio kernel module
[01:13] <kgwgk> there's already a patch submitted to them, but nobody's implementing it
[01:13] <germanpianista> lol??}
[01:13] <kgwgk> it's been open for months
[01:13] <kgwgk> here's what i had to do for the UR22
[01:13] <kgwgk> http://www.steinberg.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=62290
[01:14] <Sachiru> That's the fstab of the livecd
[01:14] <kgwgk> so likely there's a similar patch you have to apply
[01:14] <kgwgk> <flips desk>
[01:14] <Sachiru> I need the FSTAB of the disk
[01:14] <Sachiru> Hmm
[01:14] <Sachiru> How comfortable are you with command line, ForTheWin
[01:14] <Sachiru> ?
[01:14] <squinty> kgwgk: afaik, you need to "pin" it.  see the following or similar via google  http://askubuntu.com/questions/178324/how-to-skip-kernel-update
[01:15] <theplugtwelve> server irc.packetfire.org

[01:16] <kgwgk> germanpianista: does this help? http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/89098/ideas-how-to-get-my-usb-audio-interface-to-work-with-linux
[01:16] <Sachiru> ForTheWin, read up on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[01:17] <germanpianista> thank you!! i'll check it out
[01:17] <Aladiah> wxl this didnt work for me http://www.jasom.net/how-to-enable-hibernation-in-lubuntu-14-04
[01:17] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: sudo update-grub says failed to get canonical path of '/cow'.
[01:18] <ForTheWin> how do i update grub?
[01:19] <Sachiru> @ForTheWin: What did you do?
[01:20] <Sachiru> Sigh
[01:20] <squinty> ForTheWin: as suggested by Sachiru  you can try the Boot-Repair utility and also check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting for other options including details on how to "chroot" from a livecd
[01:20] <Sachiru> Read up on the page I linked you, then install Boot-repair
[01:20] <Sachiru> Instead of trying random fixes
[01:21] <Sachiru> I suggest that you take 5 minutes to get a coke, calm down and listen to us
[01:21] <Sachiru> Instead of panicking and frantic googling and applying random "solutions" you see on the internet
[01:21] <Sachiru> Panic makes you stupid. The problem you have is easily fixable, just don't make it worse by panicking.
[01:22] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: ok i will synaptic search for boot-repair?
[01:22] <Sachiru> Sigh
[01:22] <Sachiru> Did you even read the link?
[01:22] <Sachiru> What did I say
 ForTheWin, read up on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[01:22] <Sachiru> Read that first. Once you have read it you will know exactly what to do
[01:23] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: got it, sorry reading bootrepair link
[01:24] <fishcooker> we have many accesspoint how to make it default to connect to a spesific access point
[01:25] <Sachiru> In the future, if you have problems, calm down and start reading
[01:25] <fishcooker> what's problem Sachiru
[01:26] <Sachiru> No problems, fishcooker. Just someone who needs support
[01:27] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: im trying to install boot-repair in lubuntu through terminal and sudo sed 's/trusty/saucy/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-ubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list is not working
[01:28] <Sachiru> What's the error message?
[01:28] <Sachiru> Also what version of Ubuntu are you currently running?
[01:28] <ForTheWin> no such file or directory
[01:29] <ForTheWin> the latest lubuntu 14.04
[01:29] <Sachiru> Did you add the apt repository?
[01:29] <Sachiru> Already?
[01:29] <ForTheWin> yes that was successful
[01:30] <Sachiru> Ok, please do the following command
[01:30] <slacko82191> lubuntu rocks!
[01:31] <Sachiru> sudo apt-get install pastebinit && ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | pastebinit
[01:31] <Sachiru> Then paste the output of that command here.
[01:31] <ObrienDave> paste the URL that pastebinit gives you
[01:32] <ForTheWin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556235/
[01:33] <larsantos> Hello, will lubuntu or xubuntu run on a netbook with an intal celeron M at 900MHz and 1 GB memory RAM 9" screen with 1024x6oo pixels? Assunming all the other stuff work, I'm just sense the optionS I have
[01:33] <Sachiru> Do the sed again. Most likely there's a typo there somewhere
[01:34] <Sachiru> Ah wait
[01:34] <Sachiru> I see it now
[01:34] <Sachiru> Typo indeed
[01:34] <Sachiru> Run the following command instead: sudo sed 's/trusty/saucy/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list
[01:35] <Sachiru> File should be yannubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list, not yannubuntu-ubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list
[01:35] <Sachiru> The rest of the commands should work
[01:36] <ForTheWin> no error msg this time, but no msg either, just gave me a new prompt
[01:36] <ForTheWin> so i think it worked?
[01:38] <Miauriel> hey everyone. I'd like to make a minimal ubuntu distro for myself using the ubuntu-mini-remix. does anyone know of a walkthrough I can follow to build one without a program like UCK or ubuntu builder?
[01:39] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: ok recommended repair is done. rebooting now, Thanks in advance i will be back here either way
[01:41] <hulio> hi guys, stupid quick question, should i remove ubuntu and use windows? i can't do much in ubuntu
[01:41] <hulio> should i?
[01:41] <ooloo> That is up to you I guess
[01:41] <hulio> cause i'm not really sure what to do with ubuntu right now
[01:41] <ooloo> But you really can do a lot in Ubuntu, as well as any other linux distro
[01:41] <ooloo> well, what do you want to do with it?
[01:41] <Sa[i]nT> Run ubuntu in a VM first.
[01:41] <hulio> like what?
[01:41] <ramsudharsan> Linux is much better than windows
[01:42] <ooloo> I mean, you can use it for office work, development, browsing the web, etc
[01:42] <ramsudharsan> http://whylinuxisbetter.com/
[01:42] <ooloo> there are a lot of advantages to using linux.
[01:42] <ramsudharsan> +1 @ooloo
[01:42] <ramsudharsan> looks like the page has been removed
[01:42] <Sa[i]nT> ooloo, run it in a VM.
[01:42] <ooloo> I think the worst part is just dealing with compatibility with things that weren't intended for a linux OS in the first place, which is actually a weird complain to have
[01:42] <Sa[i]nT> Use it for a while before replacing Windows.
[01:43] <hulio> so do windows and ubuntu in vmware?
[01:43] <ooloo> Sa[i]nT, and there are always virtual machines.
[01:43] <Sa[i]nT> Yeah. I use Virtualbox
[01:43] <hulio> cause right now i dont know what am i suppose to do with ubuntu...unless u name 1 good thing about it.
[01:43] <hulio> i use vmware workstation
[01:43] <ramsudharsan> http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:org9q5jF9okJ:www.whylinuxisbetter.net/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in
[01:43] <ooloo> hulio, again, what do you want to do with ubuntu?
[01:43] <Sa[i]nT> You may want to use Ubuntu for a while before abandoning windows.
[01:44] <hulio> ok tell me what do you like about ubuntu?
[01:44] <hulio> something u can do ?
[01:44] <ramsudharsan> I use Ubuntu x64 to make custom android roms for my devices
[01:44] <hulio> oh
[01:44] <ramsudharsan> And I make kernels too
[01:44] <hulio> what else is important to u?
[01:44] <hulio> i see
[01:45] <ramsudharsan> Linux esp. ubuntu provides many sets of tools req. for development
[01:45] <hulio> how about for regular normal person?
[01:45] <ooloo> hulio, okay, I like that fact that the environment is intuitive, I can customize a lot more of it, it feels sleeker, and other things
[01:45] <rww> hulio: if you don't have an actual problem with Ubuntu that we can help you with, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:45] <ramsudharsan> After using linux, you will find the crappiness of windows
[01:45] <ooloo> Well, the customization of the OS is an outright understatement
[01:45] <Sachiru> Sorry had a call
[01:46] <hulio> can ubuntu get virus?
[01:46] <hulio> or spyware?
[01:46] <rww> !viruses
[01:46] <ooloo> Not to mention the community for support of ubuntu/other linux distros is just so much better than windows. It's ridiculous.
[01:46] <ooloo> hulio, I've never actually had spyware or viruses running linux
[01:46] <ooloo> ever
[01:46] <Sa[i]nT> Going to Linux from Windows is an almost impossible move for someone who is not accustomed to Linux already.
[01:46] <evito> ubunut is only susceptible to low-level exploitations like Ebola
[01:46] <Sa[i]nT> You'll have it a day and be reinstalling Windows.
[01:46] <ramsudharsan> Windows is closed source, no possible development and modifications and even no support
[01:47] <sixequal1zero> Sa[i]nT: I just did it
[01:47] <hulio> Sa[i]nT, yes, that is exactly i feel
[01:47] <hulio> i have it a day then reinstall windows lol
[01:47] <Sa[i]nT> Use other Distros, really feel it out.
[01:47] <ObrienDave> Sa[i]nT, i made the jump 3 years ago. only keep Windows because of 2 programs i need to run occasionally
[01:47] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: same error, it cannot find the UUID of my sda4 which is where i installed lubuntu, sudo blkid says it is the UUID but grub2 cannot find
[01:47] <Sa[i]nT> Because there is no point in using Linux for just the sake of using Linux.
[01:47] <ooloo> hulio, you might notice that most linux distros don't come prepackaged with virtually any anti-spyware or virus anything, because it just isn't as necessary
[01:47] <B0bsF1sh> How do I get a remote GUI session on my Windows box? I have. I have Xming installed. "X11Forwarding yes" in sshd_config. In PuTTY I have Enable X11 forwarding on with my IP address in the X display location box. I launch XLaunch, select one window, start a program, enter "xeyes -display localhost:0" - and then nothing happens.
[01:48] <Sa[i]nT> That's like buying a ferrari and never going over 45mph
[01:48] <ramsudharsan> Its the right of every user to choose their own linux distro :P
[01:48] <ramsudharsan> distrowatch.com
[01:48] <Sa[i]nT> I frequent distrowatch.
[01:48] <ooloo> hulio, that being said, ubuntu is actually not my favorite linux distro, but it's a really good place to start for someone who hasn't used linux.
[01:48] <larsantos> hey, anyone knows of a lubuntu or xubuntu spinn good for a 12 year old kid?
[01:48] <ObrienDave> Sa[i]nT, i use Linux because i loathe Windows, 'nuf said ;P
[01:48] <ramsudharsan> Arch linux, epicness
[01:48] <Sachiru> @ForTheWin, are you in a livecd?
[01:48] <Sa[i]nT> My main choice is Gentoo, lol.
[01:48] <ObrienDave> larsantos, edubuntu
[01:48] <ooloo> larsantos, yeah, that sounds fine.
[01:49] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: yes the same one i used to install lubuntu
[01:49] <Sachiru> Dunno if trolling or really does not know the use of Ubuntu
[01:49] <ooloo> arch linux is pretty great.
[01:49] <Sachiru> Ubuntu is an OS, just like Windows. It does what Windows can do, just in a different way and with different tools.
[01:49] <larsantos> great, thanks ObrienDave  and ooloo
[01:49] <Sa[i]nT> Arch is good.
[01:49] <Sa[i]nT> pacman breaks all the time for me.
[01:49] <rww> !ot
[01:49] <jesusaurus> arch is unstable
[01:49] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: oh i need help please, im mostly selftaught but still largely a noob
[01:49] <ooloo> Sa[i]nT, and that's why I favor slackware over arch
[01:50] <ramsudharsan> Well, arch is for core linux users
[01:50] <Sa[i]nT> I'll go back to the Ubuntu topic.
[01:50] <ooloo> jesusaurus, it does emphasize that it's "bleeding edge"
[01:50] <hulio> ooloo, i'm going to use linux for few more day
[01:50] <hulio> ooloo, i do have vmware for linux to have windows
[01:50] <jesusaurus> old != stable
[01:51] <ooloo> hulio, all right. I mean, it's your call. If it's not right for you, then it's not right for you. If it's the desktop environment you don't like, you should try different linux distros and see if there is one that is more your style.
[01:51] <Sachiru> @ForTheWin: How did you install? Direct to HDD or under Wubi?
[01:51] <ooloo> http://distrowatch.com is a great resource for hunting down that sort of thing
[01:51] <Sa[i]nT> Is wubi still around? lol.
[01:51] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: direct to HDD with this liveusb
[01:51] <rww> Sa[i]nT: it isn't officially supported these days
[01:51] <ooloo> hulio, but I do wonder what you want out of Ubuntu, or any other OS for that matter.
[01:51] <Sa[i]nT> I haven't seen it in a while.
[01:52] <Sachiru> ForTheWin, Please run the following command, then paste the links you get here: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[01:52] <ForTheWin> the UUID is supposed to point to where i put the primary ext4, right? which i mounted to /?
[01:52] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: ok
[01:53] <ObrienDave> Sa[i]nT, WUBI is still included in the ISOs
[01:53] <Sachiru> And the following as well: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | pastebinit
[01:53] <ForTheWin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556288/
[01:53] <hulio> ooloo, i love the nero burner 4 for linux
[01:53] <Sa[i]nT> If you're not planning on doing work, coding, graphics, running servers, or scraping pages, you're not going to like linux lol.
[01:54] <ForTheWin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8556290/
[01:54]  * ObrienDave loves my Xubuntu ;P
[01:54] <ooloo> hulio, that is good. There are many great native programs for linux.
[01:54] <hulio> ooloo, name a few good one?
[01:55] <Sa[i]nT> I see linux as one giant built in C++ compiler. That's what brought be to it. That and Perl.
[01:55] <Sa[i]nT> Plus, it runs like a scalded dog.
[01:55] <Sa[i]nT> -Unless- it's OpenSUSE.
[01:56] <m{a}zel> lol
[01:56] <ForTheWin> when i install lubuntu am i supposed to create primary ext4 first(mount /) then logical ext4(mount /home) then logical swap? in that order?
[01:56] <Sa[i]nT> it matters not the order.
[01:56] <ObrienDave> nero burner 4, $20? right. k3b works for me, free
[01:56] <Sa[i]nT> I do SWAP, then ROOT, then HOME
[01:56] <m{a}zel> would have loved to be able to get Sabayon on here, or even on my laptop, but on the laptop I have two vid cards and it gets confused
[01:56] <Sa[i]nT> Make the root part bootable.
[01:57] <ForTheWin> Sa[i]nT: because when i created ROOT first, the rest of my free space kept becoming UNUSABLE
[01:57] <ooloo> ouch
[01:57] <ForTheWin> doesnt the installer make it bootflagged automatically?
[01:57] <ooloo> anyway I just said:
[01:57] <ooloo> Sa[i]nT, I wouldn't say that is accurate. My wife does none of those things, and loves linux. She runs elementary.
[01:57] <Sachiru> @ForTheWin Order doesnt' matter but it would have been nice if you put /boot in a separate partition
[01:58] <ForTheWin> for some reason my hd has 3 partitions, a 100mb partition(made by windows?), the main windows partition, and the recovery partition
[01:58] <Sa[i]nT> ooloo, I was using it in context from someone moving from Windows to Linux.
[01:58] <ooloo> I have numerous friends who use linux and aren't developers or anything special. They don't seem to have problems.
[01:58] <Sachiru> Okay, can you please run the following commands: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu
[01:58] <ObrienDave> ForTheWin, standard Win setup
[01:59] <Sachiru> Sorry, sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu
[01:59] <Sachiru> Then sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda7 /mnt/ubuntu/home
[01:59] <Sachiru> Then sudo mount -t proc none /mnt/ubuntu/proc
[02:00] <Sachiru> Then mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev
[02:00] <Sachiru> Sorry, sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev
[02:00] <Sachiru> Message me via private message when you're done
[02:00] <ForTheWin> mount point /mnt/ubuntu does not exist
[02:00] <Sachiru> And we can continue this via pm
[02:00] <ForTheWin> Sachiru: ok
[02:01] <MrMonkey31> hey guys, remind me plz, how can I compare the file sizes of all files in 2 directories? should be = for each pair and I want a confirm
[02:02] <rww> MrMonkey31: du -sh /path/to/directory
[02:02] <B0bsF1sh> How do I get a remote GUI session on my Windows box? I have. I have Xming installed. "X11Forwarding yes" in sshd_config. In PuTTY I have Enable X11 forwarding on with my IP address in the X display location box. I launch XLaunch, select one window, start a program, enter "xeyes -display localhost:0" - and then nothing happens.
[02:06] <hulio> ooloo, will photoshop work on linux?
[02:07] <ooloo> hulio, that's a windows program, but it can run under WINE or windows VM. Gimp is a native alternative.
[02:09] <ooloo> there are other alternatives as well, like inkscape, pixlr (for browser), and Krita if you use KDE
[02:10] <hulio> ooloo, is it good idea to run adobe photoshop in wine? any performace or betterrun it on windows?
[02:10] <ooloo> hulio, I've actually never tried. I run it in VM, as well as flash
[02:10] <ooloo> https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=25607  but here's the WINE page for photoshop CS6
[02:11] <ooloo> but I don't use photoshop very often. I use aseprite, flash, and inkscape.
[02:12] <ooloo> lol photoshop 7 has a platinum WINE rating... not like that's a big help
[02:13] <B0bsF1sh> I use GIMP all the time ... and that's on Windows
[02:13] <ooloo> oh wow
[02:13] <ooloo> yeah, gimp is pretty powerful. I like photoshop's IDE better, but I've heard some people who say they prefer gimp's
[02:14] <Sachiru> So hard to help a person with ADD to troubleshoot
[02:14] <ObrienDave> i like GIMP in single window mode
[02:14] <Sachiru> "Yeah I did that it did not work", "Do it again", "Yeah now it works".
[02:14] <Sachiru> Obviously you didn't do it
[02:14] <CaptainTom> I'm sorry what were you saying? I wasn't paying attention
[02:15] <ooloo> wait.. you can run gimp in a single window?
[02:15] <ObrienDave> ooloo, yes, sec
[02:16] <ooloo> I think I'd actually use gimp a lot if I did that...
[02:16] <ObrienDave> GIMP, windows, single window mode
[02:16] <ooloo> thank you ObrienDave, I found it
[02:16] <ooloo> that is so much better
[02:16] <Sa[i]nT> Yeah, they just added that I think.
[02:17] <ObrienDave> yes, last release
[02:17] <ooloo> fantastic!
[02:17] <Sa[i]nT> I've been a user of gimp for years.
[02:17] <sacarlson1> ooloo  cool I've had confusion with that single window mode as it sometimes comes up that way for uknown reasons
[02:17] <ObrienDave> or the one before, don't remember
[02:18] <ooloo> anyway hulio, gimp is like photoshop and is is supported natively.
[02:18] <ooloo> I'm really happy about this single window mode...
[02:18] <ooloo> it's the little things
[02:18] <Sa[i]nT> Well, I wouldn't call it 'photoshop' lol.
[02:18] <ooloo> that was seriously my least favorite thing about gimp
[02:18] <Sa[i]nT> But it's pretty good.
[02:18] <ooloo> Sa[i]nT, yeah, I guess it depends on what you're trying to do with it
[02:18] <ooloo> it's fine for my purposes
[02:19] <Mugen_Deutsche> i have a question
[02:20] <sacarlson1> Mugen_Deutsche: I think the answer is 44
[02:21] <Paypal_Warning> Do NOT use Paypal.  Paypal is dangerous.  Scammers use Paypal,  Paypal can freeze accounts and steal your money at any moment.  AVOID Paypal.    See here:   http://imagebin.org/321672
[02:21] <Mugen_Deutsche> i am using ubuntu 14 and when i click the envelope at the upper right corner i cannot see  Ubuntu One, Broadcast, Update Status, Available, Away, Busy. How can i put all of them there ?
[02:21] <ooloo> uh... thanks Paypal_Warning
[02:21] <Mugen_Deutsche> Oh by the way i am a linux newbie. i just installed ubuntu last night
[02:26] <uniquedepiction> Any good solutions for soundcloud integration?
[02:27] <ooloo> integration with??
[02:27] <uniquedepiction> anything?
[02:27] <uniquedepiction> I'm new to linux.  I just installed ubuntu two nights ago.  I figure there has to be something out there
[02:28] <ObrienDave> what are you trying to accomplish?
[02:28] <ooloo> well, I'm not sure what you mean? Soundcloud works normally.
[02:28] <uniquedepiction> I guess I want an application or widget type thing
[02:28] <ooloo> This could be of some use http://help.soundcloud.com/customer/portal/articles/1392540-how-can-i-listen-to-soundcloud-on-linux-without-flash- ??
[02:29] <uniquedepiction> I actually haven't had a problem in firefox but I want something I can control it with from my side bar or taskbar
[02:29] <ooloo> or, nevermind, that's probably not what you're looking for
[02:29] <Mugen_Deutsche> i am using ubuntu 14 and when i click the envelope at the upper right corner i cannot see  Ubuntu One, Broadcast, Update Status, Available, Away, Busy. How can i put all of them there ?
[02:30] <ooloo> hm, I wonder if there is a soundcloud plugin for rhythmbox
[02:30] <ooloo> I know there's a soundcloud app for ubuntu, but I've never used it
[02:31] <xangua> Mugen_Deutsche: you mean ubuntu files¿
[02:32] <ObrienDave> Mugen_Deutsche, it's something about editing indicator plugins, iirc.
[02:35] <ooloo> uniquedepiction, this might help you http://askubuntu.com/questions/92592/are-there-any-desktop-clients-for-soundcloud
[02:37] <camtron> My laptop's touchpad stopped working. The buttons on the touchpad work (right click and left click), but I can't move the cursor. How do I debug this?
[02:39] <ooloo> camtron, don't be mad at me, but have you tried rebooting?
[02:40] <camtron> Yes. The issue persists after rebooting, even with my external usb mouse unplugged.
[02:41] <ooloo> is it listed when you type "xinput list" in the terminal?

[02:42] <ooloo> ObrienDave, yeah, I was looking at that a bit earlier. I'll be getting that for myself.

[03:17] <Findaaa> ok
[03:21] <prime2_> hey gang - first time here. I've been reading for about 20 min to make sure I'm in the right place.
[03:21] <prime2_> I love ubuntu, but one thing drives me nuts. I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it?
[03:21] <reisio> prime2_: you reader you
[03:21] <reisio> prime2_: no, but many ones do
[03:22] <Bashing-om> prime2_: If you have an ubuntu support question, you are indeed at the right place.
[03:22] <prime2_> The nautilus window locks the name column to a very narrow width when in window mode.
[03:22] <prime2_> So narrow, in fact, that I can't read the name, especially for long files
[03:23] <prime2_> I can add or subtract columns as a workaround, but it's not ideal...
[03:23] <daftykins> i've heard there's a really weird rule as to whether a column in Nautilus is resizable, something like the column beside it needs to have extra width
[03:24] <daftykins> i don't remember though. try another file manager.
[03:24] <reisio> mmm, I know how wto fix that in Thunar :)
[03:24] <reisio> how_to*
[03:24] <prime2_> I installed nemo, but random crashes ensued
[03:24] <ooloo> I prefer dolphin to nautilus
[03:24] <prime2_> I really like nemo, but it doesn;t seems to get along with unity
[03:25] <ooloo> dolphin works fine in unity
[03:26] <prime2_> which distro uses dolphin? I'll try it out
[03:26] <reisio> any
[03:26] <prime2_> great! I'll try it. Thanks!
[03:26] <reisio> if that's your only problem with nautilus though, I'd just fix that
[03:26] <reisio> changing everything over one issue is not reasonable
[03:26] <reisio> you will spend your entire life changing everything if that's how you operate
[03:26] <reisio> every waking moment
[03:27] <reisio> problems don't fix themselves
[03:27] <ooloo> most distros use dolphin...
[03:27] <prime2_> I'd rather tweak that one thing, if possible, but I'm open to a new one
[03:27] <reisio> ooloo: uh, nope
[03:27] <ooloo> I mean, most distros *can* use dolphin
[03:27] <ooloo> I should have said
[03:27] <ooloo> I am dumb
[03:27] <reisio> all distros, in fact :)
[03:27] <ooloo> lol
[03:27] <jrgill> I'm running the latest live CD in memory and seems all SysRq events besides sync are disabled.  Any way I can recover or at least write out my unsaved data?
[03:27] <reisio> most desktop OSes, even
[03:28] <ooloo> yeah, I guess I don't know of any that can't
[03:30] <adriandroid> anyone know how to set up CJK input for wine app?
[03:31] <reisio> adriandroid: step 1) use app that supports cjk input
[03:31] <hikenboot> is there a simple program to take an install of ubuntu and create a live cd based on the customized install of ubuntu. I am trying to do the following. 1) Install Ubuntu. 2) Enable auto login to desktop 2.5) enable particular mac address 3) enable networking 4) pick up dhcp address 5) enable SSH 6) install vncserver 7) put password on vnc server 8) start vncserver 9) disable screen saver 10) wait for remote connection 11) run completely from ram
[03:32] <ObrienDave> step 2) make sure it runs under wine. wait, that should be step #1
[03:33] <reisio> ObrienDave: part of 1 :p
[03:34] <ObrienDave> reisio, i'm a bubble burster. that's what i do best ;P
[03:34] <hikenboot> oh and 12) disable sleep mode
[03:35] <ObrienDave> hikenboot, +1 ;P
[03:35] <hikenboot> +1 ?
[03:36] <SolarisBoy> livebuild
[03:36] <hikenboot> SolarisBoy, should the things I listed be possible with livebuild?
[03:37] <SolarisBoy> it wont make a copy of a current - but it will use debootstrap to start from a base debian (or whatever) chroot
[03:37] <SolarisBoy> then you build up from there that + a preseed should allow you to what you want - you may even be able to use a preseed for the majority of it
[03:37] <ObrienDave> hikenboot, sorry, thought you were commenting on the wine question
[03:42] <SolarisBoy> hikenboot: another thing you may want to look at constructing a custom initramfs - but that also may be a little more difficult as im not sure of any applications that build them out for you, so you'd be responsible for making sure any services running in initramfs have the proper libs/drivers loaded
[03:44] <hikenboot> thanks SolarisBoy, I was hoping I might get away with this being not too difficult or time consuming. I am doing this so I can recover partially failed bios installs that prevent the video from working properly
[03:44] <hikenboot> so i have headless machines I am trying to connect to
[03:44] <SolarisBoy> interesting - livebuild may save you time then - they even have a CGI web page that will build out your iso based on data you put in a web form lol
[03:45] <hikenboot> ok I will give it a shot
[03:45] <SolarisBoy> cool
[03:52] <Finetundra> anyone have an idea as to why ubuntu locks up when playing a game for a long period of time?
[03:53] <agent_white> Evenin' folks
[03:56] <linwiz> I am trying to fing a header for a program I am attempting to compile. it calls for <alg/sha256.h> but I do not have that header available to me.
[03:57] <reisio> linwiz: ask apt-file
[03:57] <linwiz> apt-file?
[03:58] <briefchain> i created a custom script in my homefolder which does only echo something
[03:59] <briefchain> no i want to create a shortcut for the keyboard, i created a new shortcut "CTRL + F7" with the command sh /home/me/script.sh but it is not working
[03:59] <briefchain> where can i lock for error?
[03:59] <briefchain> look
[04:07] <gshmu> I using gedit replace match as regex, but the `^` and `$` not work
[04:08] <briefchain> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1224732
[04:08] <kris__> hello
[04:08] <reisio> gshmu: might query #gedit on irc.mozilla.org, if there is such a place, or #gnome here (or there)
[04:08] <reisio> 'lo kris__
[04:08] <ObrienDave> kris__, Greetings & Welcome
[04:08] <gshmu> reisio: thanks
[04:08] <kris__> thanks reisio
[04:09] <gshmu> reisio: the gedit channel just me and server
[04:09] <reisio> gshmu: ;)
[04:10] <linwiz> reisio: what does it mean if apt-file does not find alg/sha256.h ?
[04:11] <reisio> linwiz: what'd you run, exactly?
[04:11] <daftykins> !find sha256.h
[04:11] <kris__> my desktop screen freezes often , have LUbuntu 14.04 in the hard drive (not virtual ), got to know yesterday that it may be the hardware issue as my PC is 7 years old and may be the dust accumulated inside the CPU box, any other guesses?
[04:12] <reisio> daftykins: yay, death of learning, gj
[04:12] <kris__> obrienDave, thanks for the welcome message
[04:12] <linwiz> I ran both apt-file search sha256.h and apt-file search sha256.h  (I did run apt-file update first)
[04:12] <daftykins> take your snide remarks elsewhere reisio.
[04:12] <OERIAS> ?join #debian
[04:13] <OERIAS> reisio, go to #defocus
[04:13] <linwiz> er, one of those was alg/sha256.h
[04:15] <linwiz> Right, there are plenty of sha256.h headers, but not one in the "alg" folder, whatever that may be.
[04:16] <linwiz> How do I know which one is correct?
[04:16] <OERIAS> any BitchX users here?
[04:17] <reisio> daftykins: will do
[04:23] <cfhowlett> kris__, cleaning hardware is almost always a GOOD idea.
[04:24] <kris_> cfhowlett, sounds good
[04:25] <gtristan> Any idea why NetworkManager runs /sbin/dnsmasq on ubuntu 12.04 ?
[04:26] <vexati0n> is there a way to use the <IP_ADDRESS> as localhost instead of <IP_ADDRESS>, you know, like Linux has done for 25 years just fine until canonical decided to put DNSmasq in there for whatever reason?
[04:26] <gtristan> It seems to not cause problems, but is totally pointless, I just went though installing an actual dhcp server to provide internet to a subnet on my eth0, and here I have this dnsmask running for no reason
[04:26] <jr_> Hey guys. How do I partition using terminal?
[04:26] <ObrienDave> jr_, parted
[04:26] <jr_> ObrienDave: it's just called, 'parted'?
[04:27] <ObrienDave> yes
[04:27] <kris__> jr, is that disk partition ?
[04:27] <ObrienDave> short for PARTition EDitor
[04:28] <jr_> kris__: yes
[04:28] <sacarlson1> vexati0n: as far as I know any ip with 127.x.x.x will still be localhost
[04:28] <kris__> jr, interesting
[04:29] <jr_> kris__: why is that?
[04:31] <vexati0n> sacarlson1: "localhost" is a hostname just like any other hostname, and it can only resolve to a single IP address. in Ubuntu, that IP is <IP_ADDRESS>, which breaks various programs that bind to <IP_ADDRESS> (because that's what localhost has been since IP was invented a billion years ago)
[04:31] <ObrienDave> a billion??? thought it was only a million or so
[04:32] <reisio> a bit ago
[04:32] <histo> ObrienDave: Al Gore invented them a few years back
[04:32] <vexati0n> no it's fully a billion. new carbon dating techniques, etc.
[04:32] <kris__> Jr, never did partition using command line
[04:32] <ObrienDave> oh yea, forgot about Al Gore ;P
[04:33] <jr_> kris__: ah
[04:33] <jr_> I did it befoore -but I forgot how
[04:33] <ObrienDave> 2 million, at least
[04:33] <vexati0n> they found cave paintings done by cavelizards where they were calculating subnets the hard way.
[04:33] <sacarlson1> vexati0n: well if I put <IP_ADDRESS> in my browser I still end up at the same place that localhost takes me,  I guess you can still track the ip usage in iptables to verify what took you there
[04:35] <vexati0n> sure, but what i mean is... i have a program (brackets editor) that listens specifically on <IP_ADDRESS>, but then points requests to "http://localhost:9234" for various things. as a result, its process runs fine but those requests fail because they're heading to <IP_ADDRESS>, not <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:35] <gtristan> oddly, on my (safely old pre-spyware ubuntu installation)... I have localhost resolving correctly to <IP_ADDRESS>... *and*, I have my actual hostname resolving to <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:35]  * gtristan would like to get rid of this network manager completely
[04:36] <Bashing-om> jr_: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive , it has terminal method.
[04:37] <kris__> jr, the link is neat :)
[04:38] <sacarlson1> vexati0n: I guess you can open up the listen so that it will listen on all address of an interface like we do on apache,  I'm not sure if you can add masks so you can listen on a mask of addresses
[04:39] <bookpage> i'm trying to run apt-get update on my ec2 instance and have: W: Failed to fetch http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[04:39] <bookpage> the image is very fresh, i don't know why that happens
[04:40] <sacarlson1> vexati0n: also I'm not sure that a hostname can only point to a single ip address as you do a dig yahoo.com and I see it points to 3 A ip addresses
[04:43] <jr_> Is there a way to automatically mount an external hard drive on boot?
[04:43] <linwiz> I am looking for a "libscrypt" which seems to be in "sid" according to google but it is not available in my repo. Is there something I can do to gain access to it?
[04:44] <Bashing-om> bookpage: Earlier we had reports of similar errors, differnt mirror, changing the mirror resoloved the problems.
[04:44] <sacarlson1> bookpage: is that missing ip going to make the package you need fail to install?  if so maybe you could try another mirrored distribution
[04:45] <gtristan> so... conclusion, there is no way to disable this annoying dnsmasq process from running ?
[04:45] <vexati0n> sacarlson1: hosts files don't do round-robin DNS (which is what you see when you lookup yahoo.com) and nothing but your hosts file resolves "localhost"
[04:45] <kris__> jr, are you trying to install ubuntu in externel HDD ?
[04:45] <Deedlebag> I need help making my Netgear WNDA3100v1 wireless adapter work with ubuntu 14.04
[04:45] <bookpage> Bashing-om: how can I test it? I don't think the address that the error gives should be resolvable anyway (adding .gz to the end makes it so)
[04:45] <Bashing-om> jr_: automounting can be done in fstab file : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 <-bodhi.zazen-Understanding fstab .
[04:46]  * gtristan does not need a dns server, and already has a proper dhcpd running for his needs, no reason for network manager to try to control everything
[04:46] <reisio> jr_: /etc/fstab
[04:46] <bookpage> sacarlson1: Nope, it's making my script fail though, because it expects apt-get update to work
[04:46] <jr_> kris__: no
[04:47] <Deedlebag> The device is listed under lsusb, but it isn't working
[04:50] <kris__> jr, so why you want to use HDD while booting, just curious?
[04:51] <bookpage> Sorry, dc'd - how can I test that my mirror is working?
[04:52] <sacarlson1> gtristan: I would assume you could stop it as I'm not running it but I've also stoped network-manager,  maybe service dnsmasq stop
[04:52] <agent_white> jr_: You're looking for `udisks`. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[04:52] <bookpage> this url seems to work fine: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386/
[04:56] <b3nw> !eol
[04:56] <TheNexT> !preload
[04:56] <gtristan> sacarlson1, eh, yeah then I have to setup networking manually on wan0, I was sort of hoping to rely on the automated network manager stuff just to get the internet on wan0, and have my manual thing that works to host the internet on eth0 (laptop and I have a little device that plugs in and needs internet)
[04:56] <sacarlson1> bookpage: ya I'm not sure,  but maybe you could bypass that your script must see update work instead but this is probly not what you want command > /dev/null 2>&1
[04:56] <jr_> How do I find what kind of filesystem is on my external disk?
[04:57] <Ben64> jr_: gparted
[04:57] <jr_> Ben64: thanks
[04:57] <gtristan> but hey, things are kinda working so I can live with it, the disturbing thing is that it seems to run a dns server
[04:57] <jr_> Ben64: I mean using terminal
[04:57] <TheNexT> Is there anybody here using preload ?
[04:58] <daftykins> jr_: parted
[04:58] <gtristan> like, my resolv.conf says: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>... really weird
[04:58] <sacarlson1> gtristan: I think there is another wifi manager that overrides or replaces network-manager that might work better for you
[04:58] <gtristan> sacarlson1, I'll look into that anyway thanks
[04:59] <TheNexT> !swappiness
[04:59] <agent_white> jr_: Or fdisk... `fdisk /dev/sdX -l`
[05:01] <sacarlson1> gtristan: I think I used to use wicd as my wifi manager that used to work better than network-manager but since network-manager has improved
[05:01] <jesusaurus> gtristan: i think the localhost nameserver has to do with a dns cache, but cant recall the specifics
[05:08] <blazingshambles> How do I create a shortcut that opens gnome-terminal and automatically runs a command, holding the terminal open when the command exits?
[05:09] <ObrienDave> use a script
[05:13] <dna113p> I'm not really a huge fan of unity. It's slow on my slightly older core 2 duo @ 2.53 ghz with 4GB memory at times.  To enable Trim on my ssd ?
[05:33] <AzureX> arch irc
[05:34] <netlar> Huh?
[05:40] <sacarlson1> emigrant[EfC]: I'm not totaly sure as I've never used fstrim but I would think it would work as the way I use cryptkeeper with encrypted files system it encrypts each file and renames them and doesn't effect the operation of the file system itself
[05:40] <y0wza> what up queer
[05:40] <zackify> y0wza: nm
[05:40] <zackify> lol jk

[05:41] <FilthyMacNasty> has anyone fiddled with samba4 recently?
[05:48] <17SAALH07>  hi all, i want to run a command in a vm from another one. it needs sudo. so it has this error: remote connection got closed, ensure ``requiretty`` is disabled. then i added a command in /etc/sudoers.d/command name to be !requiretty but it didnt work
[05:49] <zackify> 17SAALH07: add the user to the sudoers?
[05:49] <17SAALH07> zackify: yes
[05:52] <zackify> 17SAALH07: try adding to your sudoers file: Defaults:myuser        !requiretty
[05:52] <17SAALH07> zackify: yes i did that
[05:52] <|m0nk> i cant disable secure boot pre installing ubuntu with usb. can it be because i have a old motherboard since that doesnt support uefi-?
[05:53] <zackify> 17SAALH07: thiss might help http://serverfault.com/questions/72708/execute-su-c-over-ssh
[05:53] <|m0nk> windows 8,1
[05:53] <17SAALH07> zackify: i did that for command, i will do that for user too, thaaanks :)
[05:53] <zackify> 17SAALH07: it should work if you do it for the user
[05:54] <17SAALH07> zackify: thanks :)
[05:54] <zackify> 17SAALH07: let me know if it does haha
[05:54] <thenoob> can anyone tell me if it is possible to put backdoors in ubuntu live cd? Because i just bought a book about ubuntu and there is also a ubuntu live cd included for installation and i feel like that cd isn't safe.
[05:55] <17SAALH07> zackify: ok
[05:56] <zackify> thenoob: I would be surprised if it's not. Look at the disc and compare it to the official ones?
[05:57] <thenoob> zackify: how do i compare.?
[05:57] <zackify> thenoob: they used to ship them out for free, i think they still sell them, im checking
[05:58] <zackify> thenoob: does the cd look like: http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=17
[05:58] <|m0nk> just need confirmation on this. old motherboard or is it windows 8.1
[05:58] <FilthyMacNasty> 8.1 is evil
[05:59] <zackify> |m0nk: i agree with FilthyMacNasty but that shouldn't matter if you're not installing through windows? am i right?
[05:59] <|m0nk> bootable usb
[06:00] <|m0nk> trying to dual boot windows 8.1 and ubuntu. done everything on here http://itsfoss.com/install-ubuntu-1404-dual-boot-mode-windows-8-81-uefi/
[06:00] <|m0nk> so im bout ready to install
[06:01] <17SAALH07> zackify: i did that but it didnt add user to be sudoer
[06:02] <zackify> |m0nk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#SecureBoot
[06:02] <thenoob> zackify: is there another way?
[06:02] <zackify> 17SAALH07: you have to add them as a sudeor and then put that at the bottom
[06:02] <|m0nk> the thing about the uefi settings is that there is none.
[06:03] <|m0nk> thats why i came here :)
[06:03] <17SAALH07> zackify: ok
[06:03] <Yrie> thenoob: save yourself trouble by just getting it from the site direct and do a checksum on it
[06:03] <zackify> 17SAALH07: but did you try the other one i sent: http://serverfault.com/questions/72708/execute-su-c-over-ssh
[06:03] <17SAALH07> zackify: thanks
[06:03] <zackify> thenoob: Yrie i agree
[06:03] <|m0nk> and there is no secure boot in bios.
[06:04] <zackify> |m0nk: idk then man, sorry
[06:04] <thenoob> Yrie: well i know it is the best way but here in my country the connection sucks
[06:04] <zackify> thenoob: what is your dl speed?
[06:04] <|m0nk> np :) ty
[06:05] <thenoob> zackify: max 1mbs
[06:06] <zackify> thenoob: i would just download it over night shouldnt take toooooo long
[06:06] <thenoob> zackify: ok i will try it that way
[06:07] <Yrie> thenoob: you can torrent it, it would be faster
[06:07] <thenoob> Yrie: ok
[06:07] <zackify> Steve_Jobs: how are you alive
[06:08] <|m0nk> that page doesnt make any relevance since the computer im installing ubuntu on is from pre 2010
[06:12] <evil_dan2wik> zackify, I don't think he is... Idle timei s 2 years 3 months and 1 day.
[06:13] <zackify> evil_dan2wik: haha wow
[06:15] <icloud> anybody using dmenu? i am trying to run it with terminus it keep on complaining can not load font even thou i installed it
[06:15] <icloud> do i need to patch it to use ttf? i thought that was only xft needed patching
[06:19] <shai> Hi ;) I have a deb file and I want to see what version and iteration is has .. how can i get that from the file?
[06:19] <kieppie> hi
[06:20] <kieppie> I got a new Lenovo X1 Carbon (20A7), and according to Ubuntu, is certified & compatible: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201204-10913/
[06:21] <kieppie> Unfortunately not all hardware function as expected: NFC, fingerprint reader, keyboard back-light
[06:21] <kieppie> can anyone please point me to some resources to sort this out please?
[06:21] <nevermoreraven> how to I stream my video, audio files from a server at home?
[06:21] <boaa> anyone here familar with lirc
[06:21] <boaa> im racking my brain with this remote
[06:22] <kieppie> boaa: I've given up on it TBH
[06:22] <boaa> how come
[06:22] <kieppie> nevermoreraven: see DLNA & XBMC
[06:22] <kieppie> boaa: too hard basket - can't be bothered
[06:22] <boaa> er okay
[06:23] <kieppie> why do you want lirc anyway?
[06:23] <boaa> because i want my remote to work
[06:23] <kieppie> on what?
[06:23] <boaa> on the pc
[06:23] <boaa> its running xbmc
[06:24] <kieppie> there's a fairly standard remote ref - some microsoft remote. use that as a base reference in looking for docco's
[06:24] <shai> dpkg --info :)
[06:24] <boaa> and whar would i use in lue of lirc
[06:25] <kieppie> boaa: honestly, if you're doing XBMC, just load yatse remote on your android & use it that way. if you running of a RasPi/OpenELEC, look for info on CEC
[06:25] <boaa> er id rather my remote worked, it worked on quantal. but that eol and i upgrade to 14.04 now i cant get it to work
[06:27] <kieppie> like I said - in the 'too hard' basket. I had mine set up & then a minor update would screw it all up. yatse+CEC makes it all moot

[06:36] <helpmeplz> Hi
[06:36] <Eduard_Munteanu> Hi, helpmeplz
[06:36] <helpmeplz> the additional drivers thingo doesn't recommend my Nvidia 750 GTX Ti
[06:36] <helpmeplz> recognize*
[06:36] <sastro> whats up man
[06:36] <helpmeplz> and my monitor isn't recognised either
[06:38] <|m0nk> i have no swap option
[06:40] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, You can tell "I don't have swap option" , be lucky ;)
[06:40] <|m0nk> durin install
[06:41] <|m0nk> i created the \  then i go on to create swap but there is no option for it
[06:41] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, Do you have some unpartitioned space?
[06:41] <|m0nk> y
[06:42] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, How many partitions do you have right now?
[06:42] <|m0nk> 2
[06:43] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, Are you setup all of other partitions? And mount point ?
[06:44] <|m0nk> i have a 1.5tb hdd and i split it in 2. 1 for windows 8.1 and the rest for ubuntu i created the root partition on the ubuntu part of the hdd then i go to make a swap area but there is no option to choose it. i downloaded the iso from the site
[06:44] <FilthyMacNasty> |m0nk: next time you do an install make 3, / /home and swap, that way if you blow up the OS you can reinstall without wiping out /home
[06:45] <FilthyMacNasty> use the manual partitioner option
[06:45] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, its better that swap partition placed in the end of HD, and marks as "end" read/write in creating time.
[06:46] <|m0nk> whut. this is during install. im trying to create a swap area but i cant since it doesnt have the option to let me
[06:46] <MasterPiece> |m0nk, I don't want to install a new Ubuntu right now, so I can't get a picture and send it to you, Suggestion : Google It! You will be able to find guidelines
[06:46] <thenoob> can i make an iso file from ubuntu live cd and will the md5sum of that iso be the same with that of original ubuntu iso
[06:47] <Jeeves_Moss> how can I track down the latency when connecting to my web server?
[06:47] <helpmeplz_> ubuntu-drivers doesn't recognise my GPU
[06:47] <helpmeplz_> what can I do
[06:47] <helpmeplz_> am I doomed to noveau forever?
[06:48] <helpmeplz_> I have an NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti
[06:48] <helpmeplz_> but ubuntu-drivers can't recognize it
[06:48] <MasterPiece> thenoob, Do you whats md5sum ??!! Its Unique for each ISO, hah?
[06:49] <Aamit> helpmeplz, look at additional drivers.
[06:49] <helpmeplz_> I did
[06:49] <helpmeplz_> It doesn't show up there either
[06:49] <helpmeplz_> when I lspci I can see the card
[06:49] <MasterPiece> helpmeplz_, Are you installed ubuntu? You can use of ndiswrapper to install Windows drivers in Ubuntu, Google it
[06:49] <helpmeplz_> No I won't want windows drivers
[06:50] <helpmeplz_> don't*
[06:50] <FilthyMacNasty> some times its the only way
[06:50] <thenoob> MasterPiece: i am just curious.
[06:51] <MasterPiece> helpmeplz_, So, you have to develop some drivers or ask in developers side to develop some drivers. Although if exist any developed drivers you will be able to see in "Additional drivers" or in launchpad :)
[06:52] <helpmeplz_> F*** it I'll just download the driver from Nvidia
[06:52] <Aamit> helpmeplz, also google the same for any additional ppa.
[06:52] <MasterPiece> thenoob, You can make your Customized ISO with you're new md5sum, Search about "md5sum" and "Ubuntu Customize ISO" is Google
[06:53] <MasterPiece> helpmeplz_, in most cases, nvidia develops their drivers and release them :D
[06:53] <thenoob> MasterPiece: ok
[06:53] <FilthyMacNasty> fortunately the evil ATI got bought by sensible people
[06:54] <Aamit> MasterPiece, Installing drivers from direct nvidia is sometiomes problematic... i experienced 2 time system reinstall lol..
[06:58] <gshmu> I install emacs, but some file i want default open by gedit, I don't know how to edit the /etc/mailcap
[06:59] <gshmu> sed/emacs24/gedit/   ?
[07:00] <thenoob> MasterPiece: can i check if a ubuntu live cd is clean. I mean whether if it is free of malicious wares.
[07:05] <thenoob> can i check if a ubuntu live cd is clean. I mean whether if it is free of malicious wares.
[07:05] <FilthyMacNasty> check it with the md5
[07:05] <agent_white> gshmu: What file do you want default open to gedit? What file type?
[07:05] <gshmu> agent_white: like .sh cpp etc
[07:11] <agent_white> gshmu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/90214/how-to-set-default-program
[07:12] <gshmu> thanks
[07:27] <lonix> Im having a folder that just dont want to die

[07:41] <cristian_c> Hi
[07:42] <cristian_c> I can't mount my micro-sd in the internal card reader via sd adapter
[07:42] <cristian_c> I get:
[07:42] <cristian_c> sdhci-pci 0000:01:04.1: Will use DMA mode even though HW doesn't fully claim to support it.
[07:42] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[07:48] <crocket> Where can I get a recent version of libvirt for ubuntu 12.04?

[08:18] <drlimbo> good morning
[08:18] <imastef> hi all … I convinced my VP to use ubuntu workstations for development instead of Windows … The thing is that the infrastructure team now asks for best practises for ubuntu … for example antimalware, antivirus, backup solutions, configuration and things like that … is there a guide or a list of must to have software?
[08:18] <drlimbo> is there a way to "tag" files on ubuntu  (like the osx colors / tags)
[08:18] <drlimbo> im processing some files with a bash-script
[08:19] <drlimbo> and like to "tag" files so they dont get processed x-times
[08:30] <EriC^^> drlimbo: processing how?
[08:31] <Yrie> drlimbo: why don't you write a storage dump and recheck that with your script?
[08:31] <|m0nk|> so installed it. have no sound and manually added swap
[08:32] <drlimbo> sorry, was afk short time
[08:32] <drlimbo> im processing files with a bash-script (rename etc. and ove them to another drive)
[08:32] <drlimbo> files who can't be moved, will be processed every time, what isnt nice
[08:33] <EriC^^> drlimbo: you could use "touch" to tag the files
[08:33] <drlimbo> i thought about setting a tag, maybe green in first run, orange in second run, and red in third run
[08:33] <drlimbo> and an if red - dont process this file
[08:35] <EriC^^> drlimbo: files can't be moved, why?
[08:35] <EriC^^> permissions?
[08:36] <drlimbo> im checking them with filebot (a script who gets movie metadata and save them to another drive) the file cant be moved if filebot cant find the movie, or if the movie already exist on the other drive, or if there isnt enough permissions ..
[08:36] <drlimbo> i think i just need to find a way, to not process these files over and over
[08:37] <EriC^^> drlimbo: don't send filenames to filebot which don't exist, or have wrong permissions
[08:37] <drlimbo> mh, with touch, im able to change the filedate, right?
[08:37] <EriC^^> drlimbo: you can use find . ! -user root -exec send to file-bot
[08:37] <EriC^^> that will find all files not owned by root
[08:38] <EriC^^> drlimbo: yes, you can set an arbitrary date with touch
[08:38] <drlimbo> yup, im looking for them with "find"
[08:38] <drlimbo> mh, im already using the date to not process them in the first 10minutes
[08:39] <drlimbo> maybe there is another way - Yrie idea about storage dump?
[08:40] <EriC^^> drlimbo: i think Yrie was proposing to check if the files have already been processed ( as in after processing you send them somewhere )
[08:41] <EriC^^> drlimbo: you could, make a file list of the processed files, and use grep to see if it's there
[08:41] <|m0nk|> working
[08:41] <|m0nk|> hahaa im on ubuntu
[08:42] <|m0nk|> does stuff like msi afterrburner work on ubu?
[08:42] <encolpe> Hello
[08:42] <drlimbo> maybe thats the better idea EriC^^
[08:42] <drlimbo> is there a sample or something somewhere? i switched newly to ubuntu
[08:42] <encolpe> How can I report a bug on the installer (ubiquity)
[08:43] <EriC^^> encolpe: ubuntu-bug
[08:43] <drlimbo> is it possible to use an array or something EriC^^? like "filename-xyz.avi"[2] -> processed 2 times
[08:43] <encolpe> EriC^^, no, they is no category for the installation
[08:44] <seberg> So... today my external VGA connected ACER screen is not recognized anymore and I can only use 1024x800 resolution. Any idea where to look for a fix?
[08:44] <EriC^^> seberg: try xrandr
[08:44] <seberg> it only shows the wrong resolutions as well
[08:44] <EriC^^> encolpe: launchpad maybe?
[08:44] <EriC^^> seberg: try to make your own
[08:45] <seberg> hmm
[08:45] <seberg> DP2 connected 1024x768+1920+0
[08:45] <seberg> the +1920 kind of sounds right, but...
[08:45] <encolpe> https://launchpad.net/ubiquity doesn't allow to report a bug with my account
[08:46] <EriC^^> seberg: which resolution do you want?
[08:46] <EriC^^> drlimbo: no idea about a sample
[08:46] <drlimbo> allright, but thanks
[08:46] <seberg> EriC^^, 1920x1080
[08:47] <encolpe> After following three links I found a way to report a bug
[08:47] <seberg> seems weird that it just stopped working, maybe new intel drivers or so...
[08:47] <EriC^^> drlimbo: no need for an array, every filename has only 1 value (how many times it was processed) , i guess
[08:48] <drlimbo> allright EriC^^ - ill try to find a way to do that
[08:48] <drlimbo> another question - how is it possible to get the "return" of a command started in a bash-script like (filebot -xyz ...)
[08:48] <peterpac11> Back from the dead!
[08:49] <EriC^^> seberg: xrandr --addmode "1920x1080" 172.80  1920 2040 2248 2576  1080 1081 1084 1118  -HSync +Vsync
[08:50] <EriC^^> ( you get those numbers, the modeline, from gtf 1920 1080 60 )
[08:50] <raichunator> Hey guys, I have a samsung printer ML 1675 and ubuntu 14.04 installed.I downloaded the drivers from here http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/ML-1675/SEE and installed them but I cannot print a test page.Is there anything I can debug or do to see what's the problem?
[08:50] <raichunator> any help will be greatly appreciated
[08:50] <EriC^^> seberg: btw you want 60Hz, right?
[08:50] <seberg> yeah sure
[08:51] <EriC^^> ok open a terminal and type that
[08:51] <seberg> ah, seems I need newmode and then addmode, but OK
[08:52] <EriC^^> sorry!
[08:52] <EriC^^> yes --newmode
[08:53] <seberg> Yeah, thanks got it... maybe it will start recognizing it again automatically soon ;)
[08:53] <raichunator> anybody"?
[08:53] <EriC^^> seberg: type xrandr --addmode DP2 1920x1080
[08:53] <seberg> eric thanks, already did, and working
[08:53] <EriC^^> seberg: then type xrandr -s 1920x1080
[08:53] <EriC^^> ok, great :)
[08:54] <EriC^^> seberg: it's not persistent though
[08:54] <seberg> yeah, I kind of expected that... on the other hand, I hope someone fixes the driver or whatever ;P
[08:55] <seberg> plus I only restart my computer like once a week :)
[08:55] <EriC^^> yeah, you can put it in a script and add it to the startup though
[08:55] <EriC^^> oh
[08:56] <Lope> I've created a script inside /etc/init.d/ that sets some iptables rules. Currently my script runs after libvirt-bin. I want it to run before libvirt-bin. How can I make that happen?
[08:58] <baurmatt> Hi, i've got a problem with the postfix configuration on Ubuntu 14.04. I want to send mails from root with @mydomain.org not @myhostname.org. It seems that something changed here between Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04.Does somebody know how to configured it?
[09:00] <raichunator> can anyone help with the printer issue please?
[09:01] <Lope> okay I've added: "# X-Start-Before:    libvirt-bin libvirtd" hopefully it will do the trick.
[09:02] <EriC^^> drlimbo: echo $? returns the exit status of the last command executed in the shell
[09:02] <drlimbo> oh thats nice
[09:02] <drlimbo> is it also possible to store this in a variable - like "thereturn < filebot -x ..."
[09:05] <nevermoreraven> http://anonabox.com/home.php
[09:05] <EriC^^> drlimbo: you can add the command echo $? >> /file/to/append/to
[09:05] <EriC^^> after the execution of filebot
[09:05] <drlimbo> ah, is it also possible to save this in a var?
[09:05] <drlimbo> filebot xyz || var=$? || echo $var
[09:06] <EriC^^> var=$?
[09:06] <rjaac> *VRX251piia27
[09:07] <EriC^^> drlimbo: add var=$? after the execution
[09:07] <EriC^^> the || will only execute var=$? if filebot fails
[09:08] <EriC^^> you want to use ; ( && will only execute if it succeeds )
[09:08] <drlimbo> sorry the || should be a new line =)
[09:09] <drlimbo> but, this works? -> filebot xyz || script faild || script worked
[09:10] <Giles2> Hello, My laptop gets stuck with the message loading ramdisk at boot
[09:11] <EriC^^> drlimbo: how do you mean?
[09:11] <drlimbo> "the || will only execute var=$? if filebot fails "
[09:12] <drlimbo> so, i thought filebot xyz || this will run if script fails || this will run if script worked
[09:12] <EriC^^> drlimbo: filebot xyz &&  succeeded || failed
[09:12] <Giles2> this is using ubuntu trusty, after upgrading from saucy.
[09:12] <drlimbo> ah great
[09:13] <Giles2> Kernel 3.11.0 will boot ok
[09:13] <EriC^^> Giles2: ok
[09:14] <Giles2> its the 3.13.0 kernels I am having trouble with.
[09:14] <Giles2> EriC^^: Yes, the 3.13.0 kernel says Loading Initial ramdisk, then just hangs.
[09:15] <EriC^^> anything in dmesg?
[09:17] <Giles2> EriC^^: I set some debug parameters
[09:17] <Giles2> EriC^^: kernel parameters: debug ignore_loglevel log_buf_len=10M print_fatal_signals=1 LOGLEVEL=8 earlyprintk=efi,keep sched_debug
[09:19] <Giles2> EriC^^: I don't understand any of the messages that prints out
[09:20] <Giles2> EriC^^: the very last message is: "random: nonblocking pool is initialized"
[09:21] <matty_r> Is it possible to list all devices on the network?
[09:21] <Giles2> matty_r: you could try nmap?

[09:23] <Giles2> Hello, I am wondering if someone could help, my kernel seems to get stuck at boot, with the message: Loading initial ramdisk
[09:24] <FilthyMacNasty> run memtest from the install cd betcha got some bad ram
[09:25] <Lope> I've created an init.d script to set some rules, and I've set it to X-Start-Before: ifupdown and libvirt-bin libvirtd. And that's working great. But after my init.d script runs, and after the libbirt stuff runs, SOMETHING ELSE runs and sets everything to ACCEPT. How can I find out what is doing it? I've uninstalled ufw.
[09:30] <Ascavasaion> What would "sudo apt-get -f install" do?
[09:31] <FilthyMacNasty> Ascavasaion: hunts for broken dependencies and tries to install anything half installed
[09:32] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Is it safe to run?
[09:32] <FilthyMacNasty> absolutely
[09:32] <minecraft> hi
[09:32] <FilthyMacNasty> good day minecraft
[09:35] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Thank you... just saw it removing sudo and panicked.
[09:37] <FilthyMacNasty> yeah it will crap out if you dont sudo
[09:37] <Ascavasaion> Trying to install a .deb package and getting "Error Cannot install gksu:386"  I understand that I am running 686 and not 386, but can I not run both architectures?
[09:37] <gshmu> I'm edit gedit theme, how to reload the theme?
[09:38] <FilthyMacNasty> you need the deb for the version of ubuntu you have
[09:38] <FilthyMacNasty> what are you trying to install?
[09:38] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Guitar Pro 6
[09:39] <FilthyMacNasty> you need the deb from whatever you got installed i.e. AMD64 i686 i386 etc
[09:41] <Giwrgaras> hi, where is the location of python in ubuntu? not the interpreter but the folder it self with the library
[09:41] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: AMD64 I think.
[09:41] <encolpe> Giles2, You may run memtests to verify your RAM then run a liveCD => https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery
[09:41] <test__> ,jiioj
[09:41] <test__> excuse me, i made a mistake
[09:43] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Is there not something like checkinstall that I could use to convert it?
[09:43] <FilthyMacNasty> from a deb to a deb, not that I know of, if you can get an rpm you could alien it
[09:44] <Giles2> encolpe: What makes you think I have bad memory, when kernel 3.11.0 boots fine but 3.13.0 doesn't boot? Either way I have booted the Trusty Tahr MiniCD, there doesn't appear to me a memtest option.
[09:44] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Aaaah, okay, thank you man.   You can skip this step.
[09:48] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Indeed... unfortunately the link on that site is dead.
[09:50] <SpyderShell> hey guys can you tell me where can i find the backbox channel
[09:50] <Giles2> encolpe: I should also mention I have two laptops, both are exactly the same make and model. (Latitude e5410) I installed one from a live CD, and this one boots the 3.13.0 kernel fine, the other I upgraded from Saucy, but it won't boot 3.13.0, only 3.11.0
[09:50] <Giwrgaras> how can i copy files to my lib folder in ubuntu? there is no option to copy files there on my lib
[09:50] <FilthyMacNasty> Ascavasaion: virtualbox a copy of 32 bit ubuntu and play guitar in there
[09:50] <Giles2> encolpe: The not working laptop has 8GB ram
[09:51] <Giles2> encolpe: the working one has 4GB
[09:51] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Seems liek that is the next best option, thank you :)
[09:52] <FilthyMacNasty> Ascavasaion: seems like the simplest way
[09:52] <Ascavasaion> FilthyMacNasty: Yep, thank you so much.
[09:52] <FilthyMacNasty> np
[09:53] <encolpe> Giles2, Strange, try to restore the grub in a first time, it may miss an option
[09:53] <Giles2> encolpe: I checked the grub menu.lst on both machines they appear identical, except the uuid for the hdds
[09:54] <encolpe> Giles2, that's normal
[09:55] <encolpe> Giles2, sometimes, the ramdisk creation fail during the gruc updating.
[09:55] <Giles2> encolpe: Yeah it wouldn't be a uuid if it wasnt unique ;)
[09:55] <Giles2> encolpe: Well I can try grub_update again?
[09:56] <SpyderShell> can anyone tell me where can i find #backbox channel?
[09:56] <ikonia> SpyderShell: on a different network
[09:56] <ikonia> SpyderShell: it's listed on their website
[09:57] <encolpe> Giles2, yes
[09:57] <FilthyMacNasty> not on freenode
[09:57] <SpyderShell> thanks a lot ikonia
[09:58] <Giles2> encolpe: I ran grub-update
[09:58] <Giles2> encolpe: That dosen't rebuild the initrd image though does it?
[10:00] <encolpe> Giles2, update-initramfs
[10:02] <encolpe> Giles2, you should use -u for update and -k to choose the kernel
[10:02] <Giles2> encolpe: I used -u, it updated the latest one by default
[10:02] <JenniferB2> Hi folks! Is it just me or do you also have issues with the Ubuntu flash player after updating? The computer freezes in chrome and after a while I can force to close down the application. Anyone else?
[10:03] <Giles2> encolpe: then I ran grub-update and rebooted
[10:03] <encolpe> yes
[10:03] <Giles2> encolpe: it seems to still be stuck
[10:03] <encolpe> did make a chroot on you / before ?
[10:03] <Giles2> JenniferB2: Are you using pepper-flash-plugin?
[10:04] <JenniferB2> Giles2, I am not sure .. i think so
[10:04] <JenniferB2> Giles2, I also have Adobe flash installed i can see here
[10:05] <JenniferB2> Giles2, ooh it is a plugin for mozilla
[10:05] <JenniferB2> Giles2, can I update it?
[10:06] <Giles2> JenniferB2: I removed the libflashplayer-installer, and removed the Adobe plugin, and installed the pepper flash player plugin using: apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[10:06] <Giles2> That made flash work in chrome for me.
[10:07] <FilthyMacNasty> odd chrome comes with its own flash support
[10:07] <Giles2> encolpe: I haven't made a chroot in /
[10:07] <JenniferB2> FilthyMacNasty, yes.. it seems so .. perhaps i should install chromium
[10:07] <JenniferB2> pepper is installing
[10:07] <FilthyMacNasty> chrome works just fine for me on 14.04 x64
[10:08] <Giles2> FilthyMacNasty: JenniferB2: Well I assumed chrome should have it too, I didn't bother to investigate why it stopped working, I just installed pepper and that worked for me.
[10:09] <JenniferB2> how do I remove chrome?
[10:09] <JenniferB2> sudo apt-get remove chrome is not working
[10:09] <Giles2> sudo apt-get remove chrome-browser?
[10:09] <Giles2> JenniferB2: You can also type: sudo apt-get remove chro<TAB>
[10:10] <Giles2> and it will auto-complete
[10:10] <JenniferB2> this is completes: chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
[10:10] <FilthyMacNasty> sudo apt-cache search chrome
[10:11] <PoolShark_> so does anyone know why the ubuntu installer wouldn't see my hard drive when it is right there in dmesg plain as day?
[10:11] <JenniferB2> FilthyMacNasty, google-chrome .. thanks :)
[10:12] <FilthyMacNasty> there ya go! dont forget sudo apt-get remove --purge google-chrome
[10:12] <JenniferB2> how do I remove these packages: "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:"
[10:12] <FilthyMacNasty> sudo apt-get autoremove
[10:13] <JenniferB2> FilthyMacNasty, can I do a purge afterwards ?
[10:13] <Giles2> FilthyMacNasty: Dosen't 'sudo apt-get purge' do the same as 'sudo apt-get remove --purge'
[10:13] <FilthyMacNasty> umm dunno
[10:13] <FilthyMacNasty> never did that before
[10:14] <FilthyMacNasty> of course I rarely remove anything
[10:14] <|m0nk> i saw this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2119062 and currently i havent done anything to it but i installed steam and ran a game and there was no change in fan speed
[10:14] <JenniferB2> great! how do I update the sudo apt-cache search index ?
[10:15] <FilthyMacNasty> sudo apt-get update
[10:16] <JenniferB2> FilthyMacNasty, does search list installed packages or also available packages ? I am still getting the listing of: google-chrome-beta - The web browser from Google
[10:16] <JenniferB2> google-chrome-stable - The web browser from Google
[10:16] <JenniferB2> google-chrome-unstable - The web browser from Google
[10:17] <FilthyMacNasty> available
[10:19] <JenniferB2> ook thanks for the help.. i have save these useful commands :)
[10:21] <JenniferB2> i am now also reviwing installed packages .. i have zeitgeist: "Zeitgeist is a service which logs the user's activities and events (files opened, websites visited, conversations held with other people, etc.) and makes the relevant information available to other applications."

[10:24] <Giwrgaras> when you enable compiz in ubuntu the workspaces stop to work?
[10:26] <uniquedepiction> Chrome and Firefox displaying windows fonts incorrectly even after installing msfonts , anyone have this problem?
[10:28] <_0x1> is there any ppa for latest remmina?
[10:45] <graingert> !question
[10:46] <comedmeelpene> hey
[10:46] <comedmeelpene> !question
[10:46] <comedmeelpene> !question hola?
[10:50] <MagicSpud> hello since I upgraded the system from 12.04  64 bits to 14.04 64 bits it is unable to play .wma files invariably rhythmbox totem vlc will always crash. what should I do?
[10:50] <MagicSpud> the previous 12.04 version was playing them
[10:51] <alocer> apt-get -f install . doese this do anything /
[10:51] <alocer> ?
[10:51] <Ben64> attempts to fix dependency problems and other stuff
[10:51] <FilthyMacNasty> alocer: sudo apt-get -f install searches for dependencies on broken installs and attempts to install anything half installed
[10:52] <alocer> MagicSpud: apt-get -f install . will it help you or not ?
[10:52] <MagicSpud> another issue is that some keyboard keys are switched / instead of -
[10:52] <MagicSpud> I ll try that
[10:52] <alocer> MagicSpud: you should change your keymap .
[10:52] <alocer> MagicSpud: try US international
[10:53] <Giwrgaras> what package to i need to install to copy files with the mouse?
[10:54] <alocer> Giwrgaras: ubuntu doese this by default.
[10:54] <Giwrgaras> not in the bin folders etc
[10:54] <Giwrgaras> in the user/ lib folders i cannot copy files there
[10:54] <FilthyMacNasty> those belong to root, and for good reason
[10:55] <MagicSpud> alocer how do I change keymap...under config keyboard only shortcuts option and writing properties available
[10:55] <FilthyMacNasty> if you need to copy to there use sudo cp
[10:55] <Giwrgaras> sure
[10:55] <Giwrgaras> is there any program to cp files from there with the mouse?
[10:55] <linwiz> I am looking for a "libscrypt" which seems to be in "sid" according to google but it is not available in my repo. Is there something I can do to gain access to it?
[10:55] <alocer> Giwrgaras: you should be root . use sudo . plz read sudo manual page . tnx
[10:55] <Ben64> Giwrgaras: what are you trying to copy there... could break stuff
[10:55] <Giwrgaras> i know how to copy by sudo
[10:56] <Giwrgaras> but i am terribly bored to write sudo cd in the terminal every time
[10:56] <alocer> Giwrgaras: then install gksudo
[10:56] <Giwrgaras> i thought in the past i had a program that i could just do it with my mouse
[10:56] <virtualhost> hello, i want to set up multiple frontends on my server but it is a development server and as such has no domain name, only an ip address. how can i set it up? is there a guide you know of?
[10:57] <cfhowlett_> !server | virtualhost
[10:57] <alocer> Giwrgaras: for gnome use gksudo and for kde kdesudo . but for more pro stuff you should configure pkexec .
[10:57] <FilthyMacNasty> virtualhost: you want multiple front ends available on the server or multiple machines running screen off the server?
[10:57] <Giwrgaras> i have the 14.04 version
[10:58] <MagicSpud> keyboard fixed
[10:58] <MagicSpud> and for the sudo apt-get -f install I get the autoremove advice which I followed....
[10:59] <FilthyMacNasty> well done
[10:59] <MagicSpud> still crashing when playing wma files
[10:59] <virtualhost> i know how to set up multiple domains on the same machine and have them lead to separate directories. i would like to replicate that effect but without purchasing a domain.
[10:59] <virtualhost> i am using this linode guide https://www.linode.com/docs/websites/lamp/lamp-server-on-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin
[11:00] <Giwrgaras> nautilus isnt a file manager? can i use it as root to do as i want?
[11:00] <Giwrgaras> what*
[11:00] <FilthyMacNasty> virtualhost: for use inside the network or across the net?
[11:00] <cfhowlett> Giwrgaras, sudo nautilus ...
[11:00] <Ben64> gksudo
[11:00] <FilthyMacNasty> you can sudo nautilus from the terminal
[11:00] <Ben64> gksudo
[11:01] <virtualhost> across the internet
[11:01] <Giwrgaras> :)) yes that was what i was looking for thanks
[11:01] <virtualhost> it gave me an idea to edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default       and set different ports to each frontend
[11:01] <FilthyMacNasty> then you will have to register domain names with someone, unless you want to use the IP address all the time
[11:02] <virtualhost> i want to use the ip address
[11:02] <virtualhost> will the ports idea work?
[11:02] <FilthyMacNasty> yes
[11:03] <FilthyMacNasty> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:XXXX and port forward with your router, no problemo
[11:03] <virtualhost> great, i am going to give it a try
[11:04] <wesley9946> hi
[11:04] <__unik> hello wesley9946 ....
[11:04] <wesley9946> when i click the dash button, my entire laptop will freeze
[11:06] <wesley9946> anyone?
[11:07] <FilthyMacNasty> thinking
[11:08] <FilthyMacNasty> none of the other keys around it cause this problem?
[11:08] <brent> can you avoid hitting the dash button?
[11:08] <brent> minimise everything?
[11:08] <FilthyMacNasty> in the linux world, not bloody likely
[11:09] <matts1lver> Hi, trying to install ubuntu server 14.04 on two 3TB hard drives, I have created a 1MB partition and selected the "Reserved Bios boot area" option on both drives e.g. /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1. Then created a big partition filling the rest of the disks and selecting them for use as raid. Then create the raid on the two partitions e.g. /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2 and then LVM on top of the raid with LV's for swap, root and data
[11:09] <wesley9946> everything what looks like the dash, for example the logout menu
[11:09] <wesley9946> that will freeze
[11:09] <brent> ok gotcha
[11:11] <JenniferB2> can you set up chromium to use TOR ?
[11:12] <JenniferB2>  and what is a secure version of chromium, i have read about iron browser .. but what are your thoughts?
[11:12] <salute> oh that's a pain, I can't sign into ubuntuforums anymore
[11:13] <salute> I can't install ubuntu on the new windows 8 computers so I'm looking for some help
[11:13] <FilthyMacNasty> JenniferB2: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en
[11:13] <salute> experts abound I'm sure
[11:13] <bajin-lee> hi
[11:13] <JenniferB2> FilthyMacNasty, isnt that for the entire system?
[11:13] <salute> this dam eufi is a royal pain in the butt
[11:14] <salute> JenniferB2: that would be the best call wouldn't it?
[11:14] <bajin-lee> i wanna to run microsoft 10 in ubuntu
[11:14] <bajin-lee> how to achieve it
[11:14] <philinux> salute;~ for login problems email the forum council<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[11:14] <salute> your bittorrent and flash and java and https-stuff
[11:15] <salute> philinux: oh thanks
[11:15] <OerHeks> bajin-lee, maybe a virtual machine?
[11:15] <JenniferB2> salute, i have a slow internet connection though. Plus you don't always get into sites using tor
[11:15] <JenniferB2> -site, I should say places
[11:15] <chemist^> hello everyone
[11:15] <FilthyMacNasty> bajin-lee: google crossover linux
[11:15] <bajin-lee> OerHeks, i dont know which one to choose
[11:15] <MagicSpud> hey I found the solution for the cant play wma files: http://askubuntu.com/questions/456072/clementine-wont-play-wma-with-your-gstreamer-installation-is-missing-a-plugi
[11:15] <salute> why not firefox for that stuff girl?
[11:16] <OerHeks> bajin-lee, virtualbox or vmware, you choose
[11:16] <chemist^> i use virtualbox ... no problems with it so far
[11:16] <FilthyMacNasty> will not crossover work for him?
[11:17] <bajin-lee> OerHeks , thanks ,i 'll have a try
[11:17] <OerHeks> crossover is a wine thing, not suitable for an OS, just for apps
[11:17] <FilthyMacNasty> I just saw MS 10
[11:19] <bajin-lee> anything open source?
[11:20] <rsv> After installing ubuntu 14.04 - I get only guest session. i gave "a new user name and password" during installation
[11:20] <ikonia> bajin-lee: virtual box is open source
[11:20] <rsv> Is there a way to create logins
[11:20] <ikonia> bajin-lee: there is also xen and kvm and many virtualization options
[11:20] <FilthyMacNasty> not from a guest session
[11:20] <bajin-lee> ikonia , thanks
[11:20] <rsv> FilthyMacNasty: what should i do?
[11:21] <rsv> it only logins as guest
[11:21] <bajin-lee> and all of you
[11:21] <salute> but you know your username and password so your fine
[11:21] <FilthyMacNasty> rsv: reboot and select the second option when grub pops up, go into recovery mode and add a user and also add them to sudoers
[11:21] <salute> just ctrl-alt-t for a terminal and sudo su
[11:21] <rsv> how to add sudoes?
[11:21] <ikonia> why do you need to do that from a recovery shell ?
[11:21] <FilthyMacNasty> using visudo
[11:21] <ikonia> err no
[11:22] <ikonia> you don't use visudo
[11:22] <salute> why not ikonia ?
[11:22] <FilthyMacNasty> well since I didnt know about the ctrl-alt-t thing then I'll shut up
[11:22] <salute> where have I been
[11:22] <ikonia> because that is for editing the sudoers rules
[11:22] <salute> that's what he wants
[11:22] <ikonia> you don't want to add them to the sudoers rules, you want to add them to the sudoers group which already has a sudoers rule
[11:23] <salute> ahh nice
[11:23] <FilthyMacNasty> ok, I give I was wrong
[11:23] <salute> yeah yeah that's cool -- how?
[11:23] <ikonia> why are you doing this from the recovery shell ?
[11:24] <FilthyMacNasty> cause I'm an idjit
[11:24] <ikonia> salute: do you have a desktop running currently ?
[11:24] <salute> yeah just live though
[11:24] <ikonia> salute: what's the problem with your normal install ?
[11:25] <OerHeks> rsv, why do you have guest-login only ?
[11:25] <salute> I have installed ubuntu
[11:25] <salute> I've done it a few times in a few different ways now
[11:25] <ikonia> salute: whats teh actual problem
[11:25] <salute> ahh, now bootage bro
[11:26] <ikonia> what ?
[11:26] <salute> straight-2-windows
[11:26] <salute> I can't boot linux
[11:26] <ikonia> ok - that is nothing to do with users
[11:26] <ikonia> that is grub not being installed/configured
[11:26] <ikonia> why are you trying to fix this by adding a user ?
[11:26] <salute> I was talking to rsv
[11:26] <ikonia> oh, ok, crossed lines then
[11:26] <salute> hehe
[11:27] <salute> fix my problem dude!
[11:27] <ikonia> salute: how did you install ubuntu ?

[11:31] <OerHeks> salute, in that howto, @ #7 you can use bootrepair ...
[11:32] <salute> OerHeks: and ikonia >> I have
[11:32] <salute> and then didn't get lucky,, used bcdedit in windows too
[11:32] <OerHeks> salute, paste the url from bootrepair ?
[11:33] <salute> cool I have that
[11:33] <OerHeks> we love some solid info :-)
[11:33] <salute> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8557992/
[11:40] <salute> I'm still here
[11:40] <FilthyMacNasty> me too
[11:41] <salute> meat
[11:41] <j_blan01> hi
[11:41] <compdoc> veggie
[11:46] <OerHeks> salute, not sure what to make of this, did you turn off fastboot?
[11:46] <evil_dan2wik> I enter "env", putty fills up with a bunch of "▒" to as far as scroll back can see and then the terminal session times out after a while.
[11:46] <evil_dan2wik> What could be casuing this?
[11:47] <salute> yep
[11:48] <tixz> I'm receiving a gzipped archive through netcat, but when I pipe it into gunzip it just prints to stdout instead of disk. How do I make it do the latter?
[11:49] <hateball> evil_dan2wik: maybe you did not specify to use utf-8 in putty
[11:49] <evil_dan2wik> hateball, I ran "env"
[11:49] <evil_dan2wik> it normally doesn't do this.
[11:50] <hateball> evil_dan2wik: Normally as in the other times you connect in the same way running "env" ?
[11:50] <evil_dan2wik> yes.
[11:50] <evil_dan2wik> Normally, it displays a normal environment.
[11:51] <evil_dan2wik> I'll try to jam the output into a file so I can pastebin it.
[11:52] <irth> tixz: try adding " > filename" at the end (without "")
[11:52] <tixz> irth: What if it's recursive on the sender end, so that there's a whole tree being sent?
[11:52] <irth> oh
[11:53] <irth> it is a gzipped archive?
[11:53] <irth> can you show me the command you use on the receiving end
[11:53] <irth> ?
[11:53] <irth> and the sending one too
[11:54] <ttyX> am I screwed?
[11:54] <ttyX> my server is throwing shell /bin/bash doesn't exit
[11:54] <ttyX> exist*
[11:55] <ttyX> I updated bash by compiling from source and installing using checkinstall
[11:57] <vahid> hi all
[11:57] <FilthyMacNasty> hello vahid
[11:57] <vahid> install squid in back box
[11:58] <vahid> hi
[11:59] <vahid> install squid in back box
[11:59] <vahid> aalllooooo
[12:01] <OerHeks> valid is that a question or an announcement?
[12:01] <OerHeks> vahid ^^
[12:01] <FilthyMacNasty> maybe a suggestion?
[12:01] <OerHeks> could be too, indeed
[12:02] <vahid> hi
[12:02] <vahid> hi der
[12:04] <vahid> back box in ubuto or debian?
[12:07] <rypervenche> ttyX: You may have installed it to a different location?  Arrête avec tes mots.
[12:08] <eleve_> petit poney
[12:08] <eleve_> petit poeny
[12:08] <rypervenche> Ok...
[12:08] <eleve_> petitponey
[12:08] <ttyX> rypervenche: The server is on cisco ucs, i'll have to launch kvm to verify that
[12:08] <eleve_> je m'en bat les steaks ;)
[12:08] <rypervenche> So much for helping that one.
[12:08] <evil_dan2wik> I want to see what would happen to a linux kernel on an unstable system if panics are disabled.
[12:08] <eleve_> <"
[12:09] <eleve_> <3
[12:09] <FilthyMacNasty> it would melt
[12:09] <ttyX> rypervenche: if i do manage to login uninstalling the package will return to previous version right?
[12:09] <evil_dan2wik> FilthyMacNasty, is it possible?
[12:09] <eleve_> YO LE RAP
[12:10] <evil_dan2wik> I know I would probably have to re-compile the kernel
[12:10] <rypervenche> ttyX: You would need to install the correct version from your repos.
[12:10] <eleve_> COUCOU
[12:10] <DJones> eleve_: Do you have an Ubuntu support question? Please bear in mind this channel is support only, not general chat
[12:10] <eleve_> PETIT PONEY
[12:10] <ttyX> so apt-get install bash should work just fine then
[12:10] <eleve_> PETIT PONEY !!!!
[12:10] <eleve_> j'aime les gros cornichons ! :)
[12:10] <evil_dan2wik> k, report him.
[12:11] <vahid> back box is ubuntu or debian?
[12:11] <ttyX> I should've just installed the old school way
[12:11] <ttyX> make install
[12:11] <ksbalaji> I have screwed up my USB drive. Said cannot load /dev/sda2 on on. Cow. Help I am now on a tablet using ff browr
[12:11] <rypervenche> DJones: Thank you.
[12:11] <vahid> hi all
[12:11] <rypervenche> ttyX: You will have to uninstall the previous version first, that you installed yourself.
[12:12] <vahid> back box is ubuntu or debian?
[12:12] <ttyX> yeah makes sense
[12:12] <rypervenche> ttyX: What was your goal in compiling it from source? Surely there is already a binary that is patched for your version.
[12:12] <Pablooo> pajeroooooooos
[12:12] <ttyX> it's maverick
[12:12] <eleve__> yo
[12:12] <Pablooo> Hola
[12:12] <zx> anyone know tachyon? or infiniband
[12:13] <Pablooo> Do you speak spanish?
[12:13] <evil_dan2wik> zx, I know of tachyon.
[12:13] <DJones> !es | Pablooo
[12:13] <rypervenche> ttyX: Well, therein lies your real problem. But I'm willing to bet someone has patched it for that as well, somewhere, or you may be able to use the package for a newer release.
[12:13] <zx> and rdma?

[12:13] <ttyX> rypervenche: It was working fine from source
[12:14] <evil_dan2wik> yes?
[12:14] <ttyX> I just wanted to make my work easier but ended up screwing it all up
[12:14] <Pablooo> MOTHER FUCKEEEEEERS
[12:14] <rypervenche> ttyX: Oh, but no longer?
[12:14] <ttyX> stupid decision
[12:14] <FilthyMacNasty> what did you do to fry it?
[12:14] <sucemonponey> bonjour
[12:14] <Petitponey> salut
[12:15] <zx> do you know chine?
[12:15] <rypervenche> ttyX: AH ok, then you can reinstall the binary that was created from checkinstall.
[12:15] <zx> chinese
[12:16] <ttyX> but I dunno what went wrong
[12:16] <ttyX> i did make uninstall first
[12:17] <ttyX> I hope I can fix my mess this weekend
[12:17] <rypervenche> ttyX: Then you may want to see where it installed it to. Perhaps in /usr/local/bin/bash or something. Run "dpkg -L bash" when you get a chance.
[12:17] <ttyX> when the server isn't under a lot of load
[12:18] <ttyX> yeah I'll do that when I get the chance
[12:19] <ttyX> till then fingers crossed
[12:19] <FilthyMacNasty> youre doing experimental work on a production server?
[12:20] <nusr> can anyone recommend a good (natural sounding text to speech) for ubuntu? festival and others gespeak sound like HAL and not suitable for audiobook experience
[12:20] <ttyX> FilthyMacNasty: yes stupid I know, am just starting out and my manager would kick my arse if he found out
[12:20] <ttyX> but now I'll have to tell him
[12:23] <ttyX> am assuming if it's failing over ssh it'd fail locally as well
[12:24] <evil_dan2wik> FilthyMacNasty, I thought it was faulty ram but it seems to be fault L2 cache.
[12:24] <evil_dan2wik> 1 address in the L2 cache seems to randomly invert itself.
[12:24] <zx> can I cancel the message that someone get in or get out?
[12:25] <zx> @manager
[12:25] <compdoc> evil_dan2wik, thats pretty rare
[12:25] <evil_dan2wik> compdoc, well, how can I check for sure?
[12:26] <compdoc> evil_dan2wik, noithing is impossible. Youd have to swap the cpu to know
[12:26] <evil_dan2wik> I already have.
[12:26] <evil_dan2wik> it worked fine.

[12:40] <diegoaguilar> what does apt-cache policy outputs

[12:42] <rsv> diegoaguilar: there are not of lines before that
[12:42] <diegoaguilar> well, if there's any lines
[12:42] <diegoaguilar> you actually upgraded
[12:43] <rsv> http://pastebin.com/pieN6gpw
[12:43] <diegoaguilar> but there's not like sources to upgrade
[12:43] <rsv> diegoaguilar: the question is why apt-get install git does not work?
[12:43] <diegoaguilar> it does
[12:43] <diegoaguilar> but there's NOT sources where to look at
[12:44] <diegoaguilar> do you understand how linux sources lsit work?
[12:44] <diegoaguilar> :)
[12:45] <diegoaguilar> you can use this site: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[12:45] <diegoaguilar> paste the generated output to /etc/apt.sources.list
[12:46] <diegoaguilar> and try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y git
[12:46] <diegoaguilar> that should make it

[12:47] <stdotcom> Hi - does anybody know if there is there a way I can list all directories within a directory that contain '.co.uk' with via ssh

[12:55] <rsv> i went to software updater and ticked canonical and free software
[12:55] <diegoaguilar> right
[12:55] <rsv> and then it worked
[12:55] <diegoaguilar> that's also good
[12:55] <rsv> diegoaguilar: thanks for your time
[12:55] <diegoaguilar> you just had no packages at all
[12:55] <diegoaguilar> to retrieve, update or install
[12:55] <rsv> i installed it a hour back
[12:59] <Guest83535> why "telnet google.pl 80" then "GET /" doesn't return its homepage?
[13:02] <irth> Guest83535: type "GET / HTTP/1.1" <enter> "Host: google.pl" <enter> <enter>
[13:02] <philinux> HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable. So much for the global notice
[13:02] <irth> Guest83535: and then you'll get a redirect
[13:03] <irth> Guest83535: "GET / HTTP/1.1" <enter> "Host: www.google.pl" <enter> <enter>
[13:03] <popey> use https?
[13:03] <irth> Guest83535: that should return google homepage
[13:05] <Guest83535> irth: I'm not sure if I understand, should I type telnet google.pl 80 first?
[13:05] <unkn-error> how is SSH server compiled on ubuntu with HPN patch or whiteout it? ( i guess is it better to be with no hpn)
[13:05] <irth> Guest83535: yes
[13:06] <Guest83535> irth: so I typed it, now "GET / HTTP/1.1" ?
[13:06] <irth> yes
[13:06] <Guest83535> it returns that the document has moved to :      A HREF="http://www.google.pl/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=yh89VO7QA4uh8wee5ICgDA"
[13:06] <Guest83535> so what should I type to obtain the actual homepage?
[13:07] <irth> oh
[13:07] <irth> so another redirect
[13:07] <irth> you need to follow then
[13:08] <irth> GET /?gfe_rd=cr&ei=yh89VO7QA4uh8wee5ICgDA HTTP/1.1 instead of GET / HTTP/1.1
[13:09] <Guest83535> irth: it returns "Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request."
[13:09] <Guest83535> (a bit more than that, but it's the essence).

[13:12] <irth> Guest83535: yes
[13:12] <irth> Guest83535: it doesn't
[13:12] <irth> Guest83535: you must've typed something wrong
[13:12] <Guest83535> you telneted google.pl or www.google.pl?
[13:13] <irth> google.pl
[13:13] <irth> i only changed Host: line to www.google.pl
[13:13] <vahid> hi all
[13:14] <irth> Guest83535: go google things about "HTTP protocol"
[13:14] <irth> Guest83535: things that you have to type in telnet to get webpage are commands of HTTP protocol :P
[13:14] <Guest83535> irth: one moment. telnet google.pl 80 - first, yes?
[13:15] <irth> yes
[13:15] <Guest83535> GET /?gfe_rd=cr&ei=yh89VO7QA4uh8wee5ICgDA HTTP/1.1 - second, yes?
[13:15] <irth> jes
[13:15] <irth> *yes

[13:18] <irth> Pici: well, he's using telnet on Ubuntu, of course! xD
[13:18] <Guest83535> of course that I am using telnet on Ubuntu
[13:19] <Pici> Guest83535: What are you trying to accomplish?
[13:19] <Guest83535> Pici: to connect to a site using telnet

[13:20] <sorakun> hello
[13:20] <drlimbo> hello, once again
[13:20] <Guest83535> Pici: to see how it works
[13:21] <drlimbo> it looks like a "space-character" in a filename crashes my script =(
[13:21] <drlimbo> $video = /folder/file with spaces.avi
[13:21] <drlimbo> filebot -rename "$video"
[13:22] <drlimbo> this gets something like $videois then "/folder/file" and cuts of ""
[13:22] <drlimbo> cuts " with spaces.avi "
[13:24] <Pici> drlimbo: You may want to check out #bash, and the topic in there, it has a bunch of handy tips for bash scripting (I keep going back to it myself)

[13:34] <ActionParsnip> cryptic0: what is the name of the 'flavour'?
[13:34] <cryptic0> ActionParsnip: I don't want to reveal since that seems to have a counter effect.
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> cryptic0: how do you mean?
[13:34] <cryptic0> People tell me it's not supported.  This is a simple linux question.
[13:34] <cryptic0> should apply to any distro
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> cryptic0: if its not Ubuntu (Which I bet it isnt) then its not supported here
[13:35] <cfhowlett> cryptic0   simply ask your distro's support channel.
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> cryptic0: this is Ubuntu specific help, you arent using a release from Canonical, so arent supported here
[13:36] <hateball> If it applies to any distro, how about #linux
[13:36] <cryptic0> yeah, I am going to #linux

[14:02] <welovfree> Can i run linux commands in windows using some sort of emulator without getting to install a linux distribution
[14:02] <cfhowlett> welovfree, ask ##windows
[14:03] <FilthyMacNasty> welovfree: yup, google cygwin
[14:04] <irth> welovfree: google cygwin, as FilthyMacNasty said, or try MobaXTerm, if you want portable experience
[14:04] <FilthyMacNasty> cygwin rocks
[14:04] <FilthyMacNasty> little kludgy to install but after that its cool
[14:04] <welovfree> Both o them are softwares?
[14:05] <FilthyMacNasty> cygwin is the linux apps compiled for windows
[14:05] <BLZbubba> why does ubuntu use super slow console fonts?  is there an easy way to fix this?
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> welovfree: or virtualbox in seamless mode :)
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> BLZbubba: use xterm :)
[14:06] <MasterOfDisaster> BLZbubba: um... define "slow" fonts...
[14:07] <welovfree> ActionParsnip: I don't have enough memory
[14:08] <welovfree> To run a vm
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> welovfree: RAM is stupidly cheap
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> welovfree: or X forward from another system to the Windows PC if you install and run xming and enable X forwarding in Windows (Requires another PC)
[14:16] <welovfree> Thank you guys, I will try them

[14:30] <Cysioland> Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?\
[14:30] <FilthyMacNasty> Ahad: http://askubuntu.com/questions/325560/multiple-wireless-adapters-which-is-under-using
[14:30] <EriC^^> Ahad: you can turn off whichever device you want with ifconfig and such
[14:31] <smartin_>  Hi All, I am having a really weird problem on an Ubuntu 12.04 server that has been working correctly for weeks. I have a /22 subnet (A) this server is on. All servers on this subnet have access to another /22 subnet (B) and /22 subnet (C). For some reason this server on A randomly does not connect or want to talk to servers on B or C. If I restart the networking or change it’s IP to another IP on A it works for a few seconds, then stops
[14:31] <smartin_> also randomly for a few seconds allows communications to B and C and then stops. All other servers on A can communicate to B or C without issue. Now the real kicker is the traceroute. If I traceroute to a server in subnet C which is allowed from all servers it shows me going through an IP on subnet B. But if I tracroute that IP on subnet B directly it does not work and will not allow me through it. See the results -
[14:31] <smartin_> http://pastebin.com/N6F35Suv
[14:32] <Ahad> thanks FilthyMacNasty and EriC^^  :D
[14:34] <FilthyMacNasty> smartin_: I believe my head just sploded
[14:34] <Cysioland> Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?\
[14:35] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: tell me about it, I have never seen this and it is driving me crazy. I am very competent at networking usually but this one has me stumped and blown away!
[14:35] <FilthyMacNasty> turn them all off, bring up one machine at a time and see where it dies
[14:36] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: The fun part is that randomly although very infrequent it works traceroute, ping eveyrthing works then stops...
[14:36] <FilthyMacNasty> have you put your hand on top of the router lately?
[14:37] <EriC^^> FilthyMacNasty: maybe it always "has a headache" ? :P
[14:37] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: no but it works for every other server, and to kick it all off, sorry I should have mentioned this. This is a VM in a VmWare DRS cluster which uses a DPortGroupSwitch which is a link of 4 physical NIC’s to 1 NIC for all VM’s to use. No other VM on Subnet A in the same VMware infrastructure using the same switch, host, etc is having an issue.
[14:39] <FilthyMacNasty> I'd say shut them all down, and bring them up one by one till it fails
[14:39] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: Only one VM is in a failed state, everything else works
[14:40] <Ademan> Is there a way to see a lot of package updates available in the ubuntu repositories as they become available?
[14:40] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: so you want me to restart the one failing VM? Or the rest of the working infrastructure?
[14:40] <FilthyMacNasty> just the broken one I'd say
[14:40] <Ademan> I had a conflict between a couple packages, and now I'm not receiving many updates at all, which is surprising, so I want to compare that against what packages have been published to the repositories
[14:40] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: I have already done that, on reboot it works for a few seconds
[14:40] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: I will reboot it again :)
[14:41] <FilthyMacNasty> what is the last thing it says when it fails?
[14:41] <smartin_> FilthyMacNasty: It doesn’t say anything. You just cannot access those subnets.
[14:41] <Cysioland> Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?

[14:57] <Cysioland> Hi. Why controlling Mopidy with media keys doesn't work, despite me being able to control it via volume control applet?
[15:00] <Awoken> sorry young001 i dont understand what you are trying to do
[15:01] <Ademan> Cysioland: there are keyboard preferences that define what buttons do what, you probably need to manually bind your media buttons to those actions
[15:03] <Cysioland> Ademan, buttons are already bound correctly, just don't work. I also tried rebounding to other buttons, with no success.

[15:10] <|m0nk> someone put in next update a fan control for ati
[15:10] <Cursed> to the other partition i created
[15:10] <Syne> Cursed, disable Secure Boot in the UEFI BIOS  then try booting
[15:10] <Yossarianuk> Ubuntu 14.04 is secure boot compatible  btw...
[15:11] <Yossarianuk> you need to (a) ensure you boot live usb/dvd in UEFI mode

[15:11] <|m0nk> installed ubuntu on a P5Q Pro Turbo doesnt have efi as far as i know.
