[18:43] <cocoa117> i am thinking this is why i can't make nagios working as root, and smartctl can't work for me
[18:43] <cocoa117> how to make this sudo works for nagios user?
[18:44] <trashi> hi, im looking for ubuntu touch. is there special irc channel or can I simply ask my questions here??
[18:44] <Arrick> hey guys/gals, if I need to be able to have a server have a working outbound email, what would be the simplest solution? I was recommended mailutils and postfix last week, however, for some reason I cant get it configured correctly. Is sendmail an option for what I am looking for?
[18:45] <bazhang> trashi, #ubuntu-touch
[18:46] <trashi> bazhang: thanks!
[18:48] <stephenjudkins> Arrick: simplest solution is http://sendgrid.com/, plus they deal with keeping you off spam blacklists, etc.
[18:48] <stephenjudkins> but it really depends how much your time is worth
[18:49] <bean> cocoa117: the best solution there is to allow sudo w/ no password for just that command
[18:49] <bean> cocoa117: it's usually not a good idea to run a whole service as root, though, especially one that is running arbitrary commands, like nagios.
[18:50] <cocoa117> bean, so how to do it? i already set the /etc/visudo file with this line
[18:50] <cocoa117> nagios  ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/smartctl
[18:50] <devtekbeta> my additional drivers wont run. is there a way to fix it or command to get more info?
[18:50] <bean> cocoa117: and it doesn't work? do you have the command definition to have sudo in front of it.
[18:50] <cocoa117> bean, i still got permission deny message
[18:51] <cocoa117> bean, this is what i run in command line "sudo -u nagios -s /usr/sbin/smartctl -H"
[18:51] <cocoa117> bean, and here is error messaage ""Smartctl open device: /dev/sda failed: Permission denied
[18:52] <bean> cocoa117: probably need to make sure that sudo requires a tty.
[18:52] <cocoa117> bean, when i look at the auth log, i see this pans : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/srv/sto/home/pans ; USER=nagios ; COMMAND=/bin/bash -c /usr/sbin/smartctl -H /dev/sda
[18:52] <cocoa117> bean, it seems the USER=nagios is the issue, here, when the command successfully run with other account, the user was root
[18:54] <bean> cocoa117: okay. ill look @ this in a min
[18:55] <cocoa117> bean, many thanx
[18:57] <Pici> cocoa117: set chmod +s on /usr/bin/smartctl if you want to allow non-root users to run it with root privs.
[18:58] <cocoa117> Pici, hahahaha, that's it!!! it works, many thanx
[19:00] <cocoa117> Pici, does this mean, there is no need to set /etc/visudo file?
[19:00] <thinkerweb> so if you a have a softare raid, and drive 0 dies, what do you do?
[19:00] <Pici> cocoa117: you can to allow specific users/groups the ability to use that executable, but using +s will allow ANY user to run it.
[19:01] <wilee-nilee> thinkerweb, THis a server?
[19:01] <Pici> cocoa117: if that doesn't jive with your security setup, then you'll need to use sudoers
[19:02] <cocoa117> Pici, i just tested, by remove the sudoers line, and it still works. I guess this is not really what I am looking for
[19:02] <cocoa117> Pici, damn, still wants sudoers method
[19:03] <sparr> Pici: +s does not allow ANY user to run it. the +x bits still determine who can run it. +s just determines whose permissions it runs with.
[19:03] <Arrick> stephenjudkins, yeah, we have a full blown exchange system, I am just wanting to be able to have our website be able to send emails out bound.
[19:03] <Pici> sparr: right. I should have said that.
[19:04] <stephenjudkins> Arrick: yeah if your boss is OK spending $10/mo just use send grid. just the fact they make sure you never get spam blocked is worth it.
[19:05] <Arrick> yeah, this is only sending to our own network, its a modified moodle install, for our internal learning managment system. I just cant seem to get postfix to send the emails anymore for some reason.
[19:06] <Arrick> IdleOne, you around today?
[19:09] <zero_coder> hello. i cant acess wifi network in ubuntu

[19:14] <m00dy> Hi all
[19:15] <BluesKaj> ag11, the nvidia-current driver should work with your graphics 6200 card
[19:17] <bazzer> if i wanted to install ubuntu server over the network via pxe using http instead of nfs, what options would i append to the initrd line?
[19:18] <diverdude> is it possible to setup a simple bash script that sends a mail when a job is completed?
[19:19] <ag_> want drdriver for nvidia geforce go 6200 w/ turbocache
[19:19] <crypticmofo> can somebody help me install java please ?
[19:20] <crypticmofo> im on ubuntu 12.10 kernel 3.5.0-17
[19:20] <ag_> want drdriver for nvidia geforce go 6200 w/ turbocache
[19:20] <wilee-nilee> crypticmofo, this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java or this is even easier. http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[19:21] <wilee-nilee> crypticmofo, Depends on  what you want really openjdk or not.
[19:21] <ag_> want driver for nvidia geforce go 6200 w/ turbocache
[19:21] <betrayd> diverdude: i'd make sure that cmmandline 'mail' (i use mutt) works first
[19:22] <betrayd> diverdude: specially if sending to an external mailbox
[19:22] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[19:23] <ag_> want driver for nvidia geforce go 6200 w/ turbocache  for ubuntu 12.10 32 bit
[19:23] <theadmin> ag_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[19:24] <BluesKaj> ag_,install the nvidia-current driver , it should work with your 6200 card
[19:24] <theadmin> ag_: Also, repeating many times won't do you any good.
[19:24] <ag_> its go 6200
[19:24] <ShapeShifter499> is there any "nice" way of using multiple cloud accounts as one?  I really want to set up a auto backup system that would split files if one account drive was full and stick it in another
[19:24] <Gundarr> I need advice.  I've been using Ubuntu for almost 3 years now on my aging Toshiba laptop (http://cnet.co/11f10yV).  I am using Ubuntu 12.04.2 Precise Pangolin with the Proposed Updates and Backports Updates release channels in my APT sources list; I am also using this PPA from Launchpad.net for my laptop's old ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics card (http://bit.ly/Gap26).  I recently found this article on the Internet (http://bit.ly/
[19:24] <Gundarr> Z03obc).   A fellow Ubuntu user on Google+ posted this and person commented on it (http://bit.ly/17SIl16).   Considering the age of my laptop, could I still UPGRADE to the **QUANTEL Long-Term Support** X.org packages like my Google+ acquaintance???
[19:24] <ShapeShifter499> I happen to have 3 50 gig box.net accounts
[19:24] <BluesKaj> ag , yeah the same driver works for the 6 series cards
[19:25] <theadmin> ShapeShifter499: There's this: http://storagemadeeasy.com/
[19:25] <jrib> Gundarr: quantal is not long term support
[19:26] <ShapeShifter499> theadmin, free?
[19:26] <Gundarr> Yeah, but there's a back-ported X.org package marked "Quantel LTS" when you subscribe to the "Proposed Updates".  My acquaintance said she upgraded with her AMD Radeon HD 6xxx series graphics card and said it was fine, but I am not sure about myself.
[19:27] <theadmin> ShapeShifter499: I think it's free up to 3 accounts and then you'll need to pay
[19:27] <ag_> want driver for nvidia geforce go 6200 w/ turbocache  for ubuntu 12.10 32 bit  its geforce go
[19:27] <theadmin> ag_: WHY YOU NO LISTEN
[19:27] <theadmin> ag_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[19:28] <litlehelpa> hi can i backup whit deja dup system
[19:28] <theadmin> litlehelpa: ...uh, yes?
[19:28] <ShapeShifter499> theadmin, lame, those box.net accounts are not the only 3 I have, I estimate I have around 200-400 gigs of free online storage split across multiple accounts
[19:28] <theadmin> ShapeShifter499: Ah... Well, I don't think there's a free equivalent to that.
[19:29] <MessagesFromTheH> most of the time when i try to use update manager, i get a message saying "connection to daemon was lost". other other half of the time, nothing happens. does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix it?
[19:29] <litlehelpa> i put to backup  "/"  and to exlude Downloads and Trash so it will work?
[19:29] <Gundarr> Try using a wired connection?
[19:30] <theadmin> litlehelpa: You can't back up directories you don't have access to. Not all files in / are world-readable.
[19:30] <litlehelpa> theadmin:  i am using sudo
[19:30] <MessagesFromTheH> i'm very new to ubuntu. running 12.04 TSL
[19:30] <MessagesFromTheH> desktop
[19:30] <theadmin> MessagesFromTheH: ...I can see you're new, it's LTS
[19:31] <MonkeyDust> :)
[19:31] <MessagesFromTheH> lol
[19:31] <MessagesFromTheH> sorry
[19:31] <MessagesFromTheH> ;)
[19:31] <litlehelpa> theadmin:  and if even some are not readable it will save what i need thet is sys drivers and installd programs?
[19:31] <theadmin> litlehelpa: Yes, but I suggest you also exclude /dev, /sys and /proc
[19:31] <MessagesFromTheH> but does anyone know what the problem could be?
[19:32] <litlehelpa> theadmin: why what is  /dev /sys and /proc   ?
[19:32] <crypticmofo> im just trying t orun a java script
[19:33] <crypticmofo> do i need jdk 7 or jdk 6
[19:33] <crypticmofo> the command should be jar file.jar
[19:33] <Gundarr> Is it safe for an AMD Radeon HD 4200 graphics card user to use the "xorg-xserver-video-radeon-lts-quantal" and the Linux kernel 3.5.x packages??  Will that break anything?
[19:33] <theadmin> litlehelpa: I'm not overly sure myself, hard to describe it -- but those are generated every boot, and aren't static data, backing them up is mostly pointless.
[19:33] <jokreg> #ciao
[19:34] <crypticmofo> i will just do apt-get install default-jdk
[19:34] <litlehelpa> theadmin:  ok i dident know thet ty and i decided i shoud manul backup whit this comand tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /
[19:34] <crypticmofo> does that sound good ?
[19:34] <theadmin> crypticmofo: Well, jdk is for development, if you just want to run java apps that's excessive, use default-jre instead
[19:35] <crypticmofo> ok
[19:35] <crypticmofo> its fine
[19:35] <asdada[A]> hi, anyone know if holdem manager run in ubuntu?
[19:35] <nashant> Hi guys. Anyone know anything about enbaling IOMMU / AMD-Vi? It's enabled in my bios, and it's enabled in my grub options but there's nothing about it in dmesg
[19:36] <Gundarr> Forget OpenJDK, use Oracle's real Java package from WebUpD8.org:  http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
[19:36] <crypticmofo> theadmin: i think i have it wrong
[19:37] <bradley_> are there any fan control programs for ubuntu server edition? my laptop keeps over heating even though i just cleaned it
[19:37] <crypticmofo> theadmin: im doing something with my palm pre plus right i need to install an application its called webosquickinstall 4.5.0.jar but i just installed java how do i install this app ?
[19:37] <Gundarr> IMPORTANT:  Make sure you use 'sudo apt-get purge --purge --force-yes openjdk*' to remove OpenJDK before using Oracle Java 7.
[19:37] <wilee-nilee> asdada[A], holdem manager, I see no linux versions on the web.
[19:37] <theadmin> Gundarr: Open source is dying because of people like you, you know.
[19:37] <theadmin> crypticmofo: java -jar something.jar
[19:38] <jhutchins_wk> crypticmofo: The thing about Java is that there aren't very good standards for it, and what there are are not followed well.  Unless the java script is part of a reputable package, it's hard to tell what it wants or needs.
[19:38] <crypticmofo> its cool thanks i got it working
[19:38] <jhutchins_wk> asdada[A]: You're assuming we know what that is.
[19:38] <SonikkuAmerica> Google Chrome : Chromium :: Oracle Java : OpenJDK anyway
[19:38] <bradley_> hello
[19:38] <SonikkuAmerica> Yo
[19:38] <twiringer> YEAUX!!
[19:39] <bradley_> are there any fan control programs for ubuntu server edition? my laptop keeps over heating even though i just cleaned it
[19:39] <bradley_> please
[19:39] <bradley_> help meh
[19:39] <theadmin> bradley_: There's "fancontrol"
[19:39] <theadmin> bradley_: :P
[19:39] <bradley_> wat
[19:39] <Gundarr> Functionality > Philosophy for new beginners.  For Ubuntu regulars and power users, then Philosophy > Functionality.  Sadly, people still need proprietary software.  But if you looked at my first post, you would recognize I am requesting help for an OPEN-source package.
[19:39] <bradley_> how would i install tjis on my laptop?
[19:39] <bradley_> *this
[19:40] <theadmin> Gundarr: You're suggesting Oracle Java, even if it's usually completely unnecessary for most apps.
[19:40] <theadmin> bradley_: sudo apt-get install fancontrol
[19:40] <bradley_> thanks
[19:40] <jhutchins_wk> bradley_: You probably want to install cpufrequtils and set a CPU policy.
[19:41] <bradley_> and how would i use said progams. sorry im a complete noob
[19:41] <jhutchins_wk> Direct fan control is somewhat unusual.
[19:41] <theadmin> bradley_: Now that is beyond me -- usually Ubuntu plays nicely with my fans by itself...
[19:41] <theadmin> I just know what exists but...
[19:41] <jhutchins_wk> bradley_: The manpage explains how to install & use a policy.
[19:41] <stephenjudkins> Gundarr: since Java 7, openjdk and oracle JDK are basically equivalent
[19:41] <bradley_> well my laptop keeps over heating and it never over heated on vista and ive had it for 6 years now
[19:42] <bradley_> ok thanks
[19:42] <stephenjudkins> it's possible that there are later, faster releases available for one or the other
[19:42] <Gundarr> theadmin:  I recommend Oracle Java 7 because it can be used as a web browser plugin.  Some websites won't fully work unless you have Oracle's version of Java.  For instance, players of the popular web-based MMORPG game "RuneScape" cannot play the game using OpenJDK.
[19:43] <theadmin> Gundarr: Sure it can, I tried and it ran
[19:43] <theadmin> Gundarr: You need "icedtea-6-plugin" or "icedtea-7-plugin"
[19:43] <theadmin> Gundarr: Now I'm no runescape fan but that's another deal
[19:44]  * wilee-nilee thinks we all live in glass houses
[19:46] <jhutchins_wk> bradley_: I had one that ran the CPU at full speed all the time until I throttled it.  Practicall burned my leg!
[19:46] <Gundarr> okay, well users will do as they please.  if you prefer the open-source plugins over the proprietary browser plugins, then I hope  they make you happy.  =)
[19:46] <theadmin> Now Flash is another deal, the opensource alternative (gnash) is practically unusable :(
[19:46] <Gundarr> But does anyone have an answer for my xserver question?
[19:47] <theadmin> Gundarr: My main argument for OpenJDK is "it's in the repos", actually (which makes it a whole load easier to install)
[19:48] <theadmin> Gundarr: As for AMD drivers, I would suggest against upgrading, I had a 6xxx card and it ain't working with propretiary drivers on Quantal
[19:48] <theadmin> Gundarr: I'm not sure the -quantal-lts packages are the same thing, though, but...
[19:49] <theadmin> Well, now I'm a happy nvidia user
[19:49] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: The X.org stuff for LTS?
[19:49] <Gundarr> yeah, but that's the problem:  it's a notebook and not a desktop computer, so i'd have to buy another laptop to upgrade my AMD graphics card.
[19:50] <kurcinavelika> i want to backyp syste what is command to exclude mounted partrition
[19:50] <SonikkuAmerica> !info xserver-xorg-lts-quantal
[19:50] <theadmin> kurcinavelika: Mounted partitions are just folders...
[19:50] <SonikkuAmerica> !info xserver-xorg-lts-quantal precise
[19:50] <kurcinavelika> tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /
[19:50] <Gundarr> You have to click on "Precise Proposed" box in your Software Sources settings app to see these "xserver-xorg-video-xxxxxxx-lts-quantal" packages
[19:50] <theadmin> Gundarr: Yeah, I got a new laptop too, old one broke
[19:50] <kurcinavelika> theadmin:  but what is string or path for mounted partrition
[19:51] <theadmin> kurcinavelika: Eh, check the output of "mount"
[19:51] <theadmin> kurcinavelika: Or cat /proc/mounts
[19:51] <Gundarr> you need to type "xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-quantal"
[19:52] <kurcinavelika> theadmin:  /dev/sda2 /media/MASA1
[19:52] <theadmin> kurcinavelika: Then /media/MASA1 is what you need to exclude
[19:52] <kurcinavelika> theadmin:  ok ty nice dude
[19:53] <SonikkuAmerica> Gundarr: There is also the generic package, of course.
[19:54] <Nicholas777> where can find ubuntu software
[19:54] <SonikkuAmerica> Nicholas777: In Software Center, in Synaptic, and on the Web
[19:55] <theadmin> Nicholas777: The Software Centre is the best place. Search there first.
[19:56] <Gundarr> Nicholas777:  If you want to add software and apps OUTSIDE of the Ubuntu Repositories (the apps found in the Ubuntu Software Center), then you will need to use the command line and use 'apt-get' command.  But be careful when adding PPA's to your system.
[19:57] <SonikkuAmerica> !ppa
[19:57] <fbi__> hey guys, can I easily change 32G   0% /run/shm? thats way too big?
[19:57] <theadmin> Gundarr: The command-line isn't strictly necessary, you can add third-party repos via the Software Centre's settings.
[19:57] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: Can I have some !details with that? What does this relate to?
[19:58] <fbi__> SonikkuAmerica: seems when i setup ubuntu 12.04 I just set AUTO to everything dnow my tiny 100GB drive has 32GB set aside to /run/shm?
[19:59] <Gundarr> theadmin:   I agree, but some apps (like Jupiter and others) require the use of the command line.  (Which is ironic for me to say because I am a strong believer in guiding new Ubuntu users away from the command line as much as possible until they feel comfortable and safe and ready for a new challenge.)
[19:59] <fbi__> SonikkuAmerica: and 32GB to /run?
[19:59] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: (You call that tiny? Wait 'till you see my 80GB drive I run 12.10 on.)
[19:59] <fbi__> lol
[19:59] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: But 32 GB to a /run folder doesn't sound right,.
[20:00] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: (Ubuntu !Studio and the whole 9 yards, with Unity on top)
[20:00] <fbi__> any easy fix without reinstall?
[20:00] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: Do you have any idea what that /run directory is about? (Community Shout-out!)
[20:02] <fbi__> SonikkuAmerica: no..
[20:02] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: Did you install anything big?
[20:02] <fbi__> no
[20:02] <Smilo> Does anyone know how to fix the apport_intel gupu error
[20:03] <Smilo> The fixes on the forums dont seem to work for me :(
[20:03] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: Did another Linux-based OS put it there?
[20:03] <Smilo> anyone?
[20:03] <erlend> good evening from norway.. anyone here good with file/folder permissions?
[20:03] <SonikkuAmerica> !anyone | Smilo
[20:03] <lotuspsychje> Smilo: what does that error do?
[20:04] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: What about them?
[20:04] <Ether_Man> Im trying to setup a Kolab server on a 12.04 system...  I've added "deb http://mirror.kolabsys.com/pub/ubuntu/kolab-3.0/ precise release updates" and the deb-src to the apt sources, but after running apt-get update, apt-get install kolab still fails to find the kolab package...  apt-cache search kolab, does tell me there's a kolabd package however. Anyone know if the name has simply changed between luvid and precise or is this another pack
[20:04] <Ether_Man> age and it's something else Im missing?
[20:04] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: Hey. Trying to mount smb shares from NAS and make them available to all users on my ubuntu server
[20:04] <lotuspsychje> Ether_Man: some pp adding need key adding too
[20:05] <SonikkuAmerica> !info kolab precise | Ether_Man
[20:05] <SonikkuAmerica> !info kolab lucid | Ether_Man
[20:05] <Ether_Man> SonikkuAmerica, there are no kolab packages in the official repos... They are in kolab's own repos.
[20:05] <SonikkuAmerica> !ppa | Ether_Man: Oh, trying to install it from a PPA?
[20:06] <SonikkuAmerica> You're on your own with PPAs.
[20:06] <fbi__> SonikkuAmerica: I doubt another linux system did, all fresh everyting but maybe? any easy fix?
[20:06] <Smilo> The error just gives an infinite loop of system errors and then usually crashes unity
[20:06] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: worked on my old 10.4 server, but can't seem to make it work in 12.4lts, did they change something between these versions?
[20:07] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: I can't think of one... this is Precise (12.04 LTS) right?
[20:07] <fbi__> yes.
[20:07] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: What package are you referring to?
[20:07] <lotuspsychje> Smilo: you installed ubuntu clean or upgrade?
[20:09] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: assuming smbfs, but could be a configuration issue of course. moved to new hardare and reinstalled, unable to make it work with config files from old server
[20:09] <ClonerBuntu> hey guys i've spent the last few days getting my system to how i want it +/- some packages, themes etc
[20:09] <SonikkuAmerica> !info smbfs lucid
[20:09] <SonikkuAmerica> !info smbfs precise
[20:09] <ClonerBuntu> can i just simply boot from USB with CloneZilla and image it to a 16gb USB drive so that i have my OS with me
[20:09] <lotuspsychje> Smilo: desktop? laptop? brand?
[20:10] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: smbfs is now in cifs-utils
[20:10] <SonikkuAmerica> Try installing
[20:10] <SonikkuAmerica> that
[20:11] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: [ sudo apt-get install cifs-utils ] and try using smbfs again.
[20:11] <lotuspsychje> Smilo: desktop freeze completly too? or only unity crash?
[20:11] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: Thanks, but "cifs-utils is already the newest version"
[20:11] <oday> hello.. i use ubuntu 12.10 - how do i run task/kill manager?
[20:11] <SonikkuAmerica> fbi__: You could try a reinstall
[20:12] <liox_> hi
[20:12] <fbi__> lol anything but a reinstall :)
[20:12] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: It's in System Monitor
[20:12] <oday> SonikkuAmerica, ty.
[20:12] <ClonerBuntu> oday: run "top" in terminal
[20:12] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: Or what ClonerBuntu
[20:12] <SonikkuAmerica> said
[20:12] <liox_> I isntall samba4 on ubuntu 12.04 now not work conection
[20:12] <liox_> helpme
[20:12] <gustav> Is anyone here in Sweden and not on Bredbandsbolaget?
[20:12] <theadmin> ClonerBuntu: Don't confuse new users with command-line stuff
[20:12] <ClonerBuntu> sorry dude
[20:12] <gustav> I need help with a traceroute.
[20:12] <liox_> my clients is mac and windows
[20:13] <lotuspsychje> Smilo: forum says upgrade to 13.04 fixed this bug
[20:13] <liox_> is now not working
[20:13] <SonikkuAmerica> lotuspsychje: 13.04 is still a +1 release.
[20:13] <erlend> gustav: I'm in Norway if it's any help?
[20:14] <gustav> erlend: Yeah, we can try. Can you do a traceroute nyvell.se and pastebin it?
[20:14] <Ether_Man> gustav, use http://lg.he.net/ for that... They have nodes in the TeliaSonera network in Stockholm
[20:14] <oday> SonikkuAmerica, the problem is i can't run firefox, it says it's already running and i don't have any running.
[20:14] <lotuspsychje> SonikkuAmerica: i know that, but some machines/hardware dont like some distros
[20:14] <gustav> Ether_Man: Ah. Hm.
[20:15] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: Try running [ ps ax | grep firefox ] in a terminal
[20:16] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: Look for the pid (4- or 5-digit # on the left) identified with firefox and then type [ kill $PID ]
[20:16] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: ($PID is the pid you found.)
[20:16] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: That's incredibly complicated, just "killall firefox"
[20:16] <theadmin> oday:
[20:16] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: Sorry, got taught that one in college :)
[20:17] <oday> SonikkuAmerica,  u r a genius :DD
[20:17] <erlend> gustav: http://pastebin.com/BVwjmHqf
[20:17] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: Also, ps | grep? There's pgrep for process search
[20:17] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: Oh, colledge... Hamsters
[20:17] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: True, that only dumps pids associated with whatever comes after pgrep
[20:18] <jhutchins_wk> SonikkuAmerica: kill -<signal> <pid>
[20:18] <gustav> erlend: LOL. Interesting. The same hosts cause the same problems from my location and yours to nyvell.se... Highest ping add is nyk-bb1-link.telia.net.
[20:18] <jhutchins_wk> There are also pkill & killall
[20:18] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: Just don't accidentally use killall on a Solaris system :P
[20:18] <oday> cool.. ty all :DDDD
[20:18] <jhutchins_wk> theadmin: Let me guess it kills ... all.
[20:18] <SonikkuAmerica> jhutchins_wk: What's the default signal for "kill <pid>" with no sigs attached?
[20:18] <lotuspsychje> lol
[20:19] <theadmin> jhutchins_wk: Pretty much yes
[20:19] <gustav> What is nyk-bb1-link.telia.net ? Anyone know? New York? Can I change the route a packet takes?
[20:19] <SonikkuAmerica> oday: Use theadmin 's suggestion though, it's just one command.
[20:19] <jhutchins_wk> SonikkuAmerica: On versions I've used, nothing.
[20:19] <oday> Yeah, i got it :DD still ty all :D
[20:19] <erlend> gustav: well, most Norwegian traffic goes through Sweden anyway I guess..
[20:19] <SonikkuAmerica> XD
[20:19] <jhutchins_wk> SonikkuAmerica: pkill defaults to 15.
[20:19] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica:  The  default  signal  for  kill is TERM.
[20:19] <gustav> erlend: Oh no. You're being logged. xD
[20:19] <betrayd> gustav you might break the internets
[20:19] <gustav> betrayd: No problem.
[20:19] <SonikkuAmerica> !ot | gustav, betrayd
[20:20] <gustav> betrayd: OMG RUN
[20:20] <SonikkuAmerica> gustav, betrayd: And don't stop till you reach #ubuntu-offtopic ... kthx :)
[20:21]  * jhutchins_wk is showing his age again, even RH defaults to TERM now.
[20:21] <erlend> so SonikkuAmerica, what would be the proper way to let low previlege users access my smb mounts?
[20:22] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: Unless I miss my guess, send them into their own group and give them access permissions.
[20:23] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: ah, smbusers grp. Got links to a good and trustworthy howto on that?
[20:24] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: Couldn't tell you... search around on www.samba.org maybe?
[20:25] <erlend> SonikkuAmerica: k, thx
[20:25] <SonikkuAmerica> erlend: Any time.
[20:27] <jhutchins_wk> ACL on Samba is usually controlled by smb.conf
[20:27] <jhutchins_wk> Yes, groups are the way to go.
[20:31] <theadmin> My Right Alt key is supposed to act as a switch to the third layer, for instance, right Alt + U = Ŭ. But on some text entry fields, for instance in Nautilus when searching for files (you can type a first few letters and it should come up), this instead cleans the field. What gives?
[20:33] <oday> guys, ubuntu 12.10.. i want to install mangler.. on their site there is a download of 2 files. One is mangler-1.2.5.tar.gz the second one is mangler-1.2.5.tar.bz2  . What should i download and how do i install it?
[20:34] <theadmin> oday: As mentioned above, searc hthe Software Center first.
[20:34] <genii-around> !info mangler
[20:34] <theadmin> oday: It's there.
[20:35] <jakey1> is this the correct way to write an equation in c
[20:35] <jakey1> f = (a − b)+(x − y);
[20:35] <theadmin> oday: Click to install: http://apt.ubuntu.com/p/mangler
[20:35] <theadmin> jakey1: Yes, given that a, b, x, y have values and f is declared.
[20:36] <jakey1> theadmin, it soens compile for me
[20:36] <jakey1> *doesnt
[20:36] <theadmin> jakey1: Then the error is elsewhere.
[20:36] <oday> theadmin, thank you very much
[20:37] <oday> theadmin, the problem is that in software center isn't the last version :/
[20:37] <theadmin> oday: Last version isn't always the best. Ubuntu aims for stability. The version in SC is known to work well with your version of Ubuntu.
[20:37] <theadmin> oday: So use that.
[20:37] <oday> got it
[20:37] <oday> ty
[20:38] <jakey1> theadmin, http://pastebin.com/kw5jHxUu
[20:39] <theadmin> jakey1: Err... "−" is not "-", it's a long dash
[20:39] <theadmin> jakey1: I don't know how you even got that sign
[20:40] <jakey1> theadmin, thank alot
[20:40] <jakey1> theadmin, I copied and pasted from somewhere
[20:40] <theadmin> jakey1: Ah, makes sense then :/
[20:41] <theadmin> jakey1: After that's fixed, it compiles fine and prints 9
[20:41] <jakey1> yep
[20:41] <jakey1> thanks for that
[20:44] <jakey1> theadmin, do you know why this doesn’t compile http://pastebin.com/Y8mXMKWL
[20:45] <SonikkuAmerica> jakey1: You're performing main on void?
[20:45] <trism> jakey1: missing a paren
[20:45] <theadmin> jakey1: Missing ) on line 11
[20:45] <SonikkuAmerica> That too.
[20:45] <theadmin> jakey1: Use a sane text editor
[20:46] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: return_type function_name(void) is a C notation for a function without arguments
[20:46] <ultracomb> hi. i-ve got a probllem> trying to copy my filesystempartition with command dd from terminal my system freezed, so I rebooted. But at the restart ubuntu 12.10  will fail to start and the filesystem is recognized as swap. Any help there_
[20:46] <MartynKeigher2> hey all...im having a massive issue with ftp permissions today. can someone help?
[20:46] <jakey1> theadmin, thanks for your help
[20:46] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: I see. Why is that not the same as a ()?
[20:47] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: Not sure, ask whoever designed C :P
[20:47] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: I'll ask Juan Soulié
[20:47] <sergio> hola
[20:47] <theadmin> SonikkuAmerica: I'm more of a Python person myself
[20:47] <SonikkuAmerica> theadmin: C++ in college (lol)
[20:47] <sergio> hay alguien español
[20:47] <SonikkuAmerica> !es | sergio
[20:48] <MartynKeigher2> i have a group webadmins as owners of the folder and memeber of that group is webmaster.
[20:48] <MartynKeigher2> i can ftp to my server as webmaster but cannot upload changes to files.
[20:49] <MartynKeigher2> the chmod is set to 755 and i dont want to tset it to 777
[20:50] <jrib> MartynKeigher2: "the chmod" of what?
[20:50] <MartynKeigher2> IF i set it to 777, then i CAN change the file via ftp. but i dont want to leave it as 777
[20:50] <MartynKeigher2> var/www/
[20:50] <jrib> MartynKeigher2: do you understand what each digit represents?
[20:50] <MartynKeigher2> so im setting it to 777 so i can make changes, then back to 755 once done
[20:51] <MartynKeigher2> i am learning from this... http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> MartynKeigher2  maybe you have to submit changes as a different user
[20:51] <jrib> MartynKeigher2: ok, so what does the document say each digit represents?
[20:51] <MonkeyDust> MartynKeigher2  as you say: 777 is not a good idea
[20:52] <liox_> my log.smb for samba 4 is  ldb: module dirsync initialization failed : No such object
[20:52] <MartynKeigher2> is 774 a good idea?
[20:52] <liox_> what fix this
[20:52] <jrib> !permissions > MartynKeigher2
[20:52] <liox_> ../lib/ldb-samba/ldb_wrap.c:68
[20:54] <MartynKeigher2> im going with 774.\
[20:54] <MartynKeigher2> that should be adequate.
[20:55] <jrib> MartynKeigher2: you probably want 775
[20:55] <ultracomb> help! filesystem has changed from ext4 to swap!!! any solution?
[20:55] <MartynKeigher2> not 755 ??
[20:56] <jrib> MartynKeigher2: I suggest you read the link ubottu sent you to understand what each digit represents
[20:58] <MartynKeigher2> k thanks
[21:00] <MartynKeigher2> http://www.onlineconversion.com/html_chmod_calculator.htm
[21:00] <MartynKeigher2> this really helps! :) now i get the 4, 2, 1 deal :)
[21:05] <gaussblurinc_> hello! how to restore after rm? I delete my directory with projects, oh :\
[21:06] <SonikkuAmerica> gaussblurinc_: Write a good eulogy and hold a memorial service.
[21:06] <SonikkuAmerica> gaussblurinc_: There's no way to, AFAIK
[21:06] <betrayd> unless you made backups
[21:07] <MonkeyDust> !recover
[21:14] <gaussblurinc_> betrayd: strange, crontab -l gave me this:  0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/, but no backups, uh :\
[21:15] <betrayd> no such file in /home? gaussblurinc_ ?
[21:16] <gaussblurinc_> betrayd: yeah :\
[21:18] <glebihan> gaussblurinc_, in crontab, you need to provide full paths to executables, ie /bin/tar instead of just tar
[21:19] <gaussblurinc_> glebihan: uhh, ok. thank god, this is not my work laptop
[21:21] <MonkeyDust> my system is FAST with "tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0" in fstab
[21:22] <liox_> how to fix samba4 ldb error ?
[21:24] <chunkyhead> can i remove nautilus and instead instal dolphin on ubuntu 12.04?
[21:25] <kvothetech> chunkyhead: yes
[21:25] <chunkyhead> how
[21:26] <kvothetech> chunkyhead: apt-get remove nautilus apt-get install dolphin
[21:26] <theadmin> chunkyhead: Software Center is at your service, just look up nautilus and remove it, then look up dolphin and install it
[21:28] <chunkyhead> dolphin has a better interface or nautilus?
[21:28] <chunkyhead> theadmin, kvothetech ^
[21:28] <theadmin> chunkyhead: I say mc, lol
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> chunkyhead  depends on what you prefer
[21:29] <betrayd> mc!
[21:29] <Biomechd> hey guys, i know this isn't #blender (which i'm in at the same time), but what's going on here? is this just a graphics card issue? http://www.pasteall.org/41628
[21:29] <chunkyhead> mc=?
[21:29] <chunkyhead> theadmin, ^
[21:29] <chunkyhead> well then i'd just ahve to find out :P MonkeyDust
[21:29] <betrayd> midnight commander
[21:30] <theadmin> chunkyhead: The Midnight Commander, it's an orthodox filemanager (dual-pane, similar to Norton Commander, Total Commander or DOS Navigator). But that's my own weird preference.
[21:30] <chunkyhead> can you send me screenies?
[21:30] <chunkyhead> theadmin, ^
[21:30] <theadmin> Eh what the heck, why not
[21:31] <chunkyhead> i want a cool looking explorer. nautilus according to my taste it a little cheap..ish
[21:32] <chunkyhead> PS: theadmin i'm waiting for your screenshots :)
[21:32] <Biomechd> anyone?
[21:32] <chunkyhead> what's up Biomechd
[21:33] <theadmin> chunkyhead: Random screens from it on my system: http://imgur.com/a/y3B8D
[21:33] <theadmin> chunkyhead: Dunno if that qualifies as "cool looking".
[21:34] <chunkyhead> theadmin, man you love cli so much? i was looking for more of a GUI explorer
[21:34] <theadmin> chunkyhead: Nautilus, Dolphin and Thunar then, the three most popular ones. Also pcmanfm
[21:35] <chunkyhead> unpacking dolphin now :)
[21:35] <chunkyhead> can they be used all at once? like w/o removing nautilus can i used dolphin
[21:35] <theadmin> chunkyhead: Sure
[21:35] <Biomechd> chunkyhead: is this just a graphics card issue? i'm getting this issue even when i append objects to a separate file. if my graphics card is the cause of this, it's like my hardware saying "i don't like that shape. i'm going to force-quit blender the next time you select something"
[21:35] <Biomechd> http://www.pasteall.org/41628
[21:36] <StFS> Hi. I just installed ubuntu 13.04 on a second HDD but I can't boot it. At first I just got the GRUB prompt but then I managed to boot into my old setup (on my first hdd) and ran grub-install and now I'm getting some message about it not finding the HDD with that entry (and gives the UUID for the second hdd). Anyone have a clue?
[21:36] <theadmin> !raring | StFS
[21:36] <betrayd> but Biomechd you're able to get to X desktop no?
[21:38] <chunkyhead> no idea mate :9 Biomechd
[21:39] <nerder> hello, i had some resolution problem when i use wine
[21:39] <chunkyhead> thunar is almost the same as nautilus O.o theadmin
[21:39] <SonikkuAmerica> Almost, but not quite.
[21:41] <chunkyhead> SonikkuAmerica, how
[21:41] <SonikkuAmerica> It's lighter.
[21:41] <chunkyhead> how to update a single package from cli?
[21:42] <MonkeyDust> nerder  #winehq
[21:42] <nerder> thx
[21:42] <OerHeks> chunkyhead, why would you risc broken dependencies?
[21:42] <chunkyhead> just learning mate

[21:44] <Poisoned_Dragon> Oh, you meant risk: the game
[21:44] <Poisoned_Dragon> I was on a whole other planet
[21:47] <Fillipe> Hi guys, does anyone know how to add a PHP5 repository?
[21:48] <oday> ubuntu 12.10 - my video files won't open. i got some videos program installed and vlc.. it starts vlc but no video is runing.
[21:48] <Stameni> if i install xubuntu, there will be no adds from amazon and that kind of stuff and still i`ll use evry comoditi that ubuntu offers ( aside from renowd interface ) ?
[21:50] <nerder> sorry guys, i know that my problem is with wine, but right now i have the resolution problem even if wine is closed
[21:50] <Jordan_U> Stameni: Yes, XUbuntu doesn't have any Amazon lense analog, and uses the same repositories as any other Ubuntu flavor, though if that's really all you're worried about then it's much easier to just uninstall the Amazon Lense.
[21:50] <nerder> i dnt know how can i reset to the default configuration
[21:50] <Persona24> Hello, I just downloaded Synergy and it's no where to be found in my programs
[21:50] <oday> any one?
[21:50] <OerHeks> oday, did you install restricted extras and run sudo apt-get install libdvdread4 && sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh ?
[21:51] <OerHeks> !dvd
[21:51] <Jordan_U> !shopping | Stameni
[21:51] <Um_cara_qualquer> excuse me, how can i delete the upper tool bar of ubuntu 12.10?
[21:51] <OerHeks> oday unless they are blueray movies.
[21:52] <wilee-nilee> Um_cara_qualquer, You can't I believe it is part of the desktop.
[21:54] <Biomechd> wilee-nilee, Um_cara_qualquer, i think you can at least move it to the bottom or side of the screen, and you can tell it to autohide if you find the right setting somewhere.
[21:54] <Stameni> Jordan_U, thank you
[21:54] <oday> OerHeks, it's hd file.. some other avi file vlc plays, but not this hd format. Samarityanin.2012.P1.HDRip.1400MBt.avi
[21:54] <nerder> when i try to reset my resolution to the one that i had before the monitor become totally black and i have to reboot
[21:54] <Jordan_U> Stameni: You're welcome.
[21:54] <oday> wilee-nilee, hi)
[21:54] <wilee-nilee> Biomechd, Not in unity
[21:54] <OerHeks> oday for hd or blueray i do not know the solution
[21:54] <Biomechd> wilee-nilee: well that's just lame, then.
[21:54] <nerder> but i saw that when i'm in the user choise page the resolution is correct
[21:54] <Um_cara_qualquer> hmmm
[21:54] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: What are you using to reset you res?
[21:55] <SonikkuAmerica> *your
[21:55] <nerder> just System-Monitor-
[21:55] <oday> anyone here knows a solution for hd files?
[21:55] <nerder> just System-Monitor-Resolution-1280x1240 (supported for sure)
[21:56] <j-4> Hi all, I have a tricky partitioning problem
[21:57] <nerder> at the moment my resoluton is setted up on 800x600
[21:57] <mirco25> ciao a tutti
[21:57] <mirco25> !lista
[21:57] <nerder> italiani xD
[21:58] <j-4> My boot partition is too small, and I need to resize it, but my swap partition is blocking it from expanding.  Here is a screenshot: http://i.imm.io/13Hkf.png
[21:58] <nerder> SonikkuAmerica, u still alive?
[21:58] <SonikkuAmerica> Yeah.
[21:59] <OerHeks> oday found this one, not sure this manual still works, or the notes at the bottom > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD
[21:59] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: What did you want to change it to?
[21:59] <Jordan_U> j-4: Why do you have a separate /boot/ partition in the first place?
[21:59] <oday> OerHeks, thanks, i'll check it out.
[22:00] <nerder> i'm just starting wine, for play a MMORPG game, this game is able to configure the resolution before you start playing
[22:00] <j-4> jordan_u efficiency i guess?
[22:00] <nerder> if i try to put that game in full screen mode, the resolution become to 800x600
[22:00] <j-4> my home is also on a different drive
[22:00] <j-4> but that isnt the prob
[22:00] <nerder> and right now i cant do nothing for reset to the default settings
[22:00] <Jordan_U> j-4: Having a separate /boot/ partition doesn't make anything more efficient.
[22:01] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Are there in-game settings to change that.
[22:01] <j-4> jordan_u
[22:01] <j-4> i followed a guide.
[22:01] <nerder> even if i try to change from 800x600 to 832x624 the monitor become black
[22:01] <nerder> but right now everything is closed, wine as well
[22:01] <nerder> i thik
[22:01] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: What is listed in System Settings > Displays?
[22:02] <Jordan_U> j-4: I'd say copy your /boot/ contents over to the /boot/ directory on your root partition, remove the /boot/ entry from your fstab, re-install grub (grub-install /dev/sdX && update-grub) then get rid of your /boot/ partition entirely.
[22:02] <Jordan_U> j-4: Sounds like it was a poor guide to follow.
[22:03] <nerder> just my display Samsung 17'' , the list of the possible resolution etc
[22:04] <j-4> jordan_u this all started from a prompt telling me that my /boot/ was running low on disk space. is this true? i thought 300mb was enoug
[22:04] <wilee-nilee> j-4, The full partition looks like the root partition the one marked boot is fine.
[22:05] <oday> Is there a pastebin application for ubunt?
[22:05] <wilee-nilee> !pastebinit | oday
[22:05] <KM0201> !info pastebinit | oday
[22:05] <j-4> jordan_u well in that case ill just enlarge my root partition lol
[22:06] <j-4> since nothing is blocking it. and ill worry about the boot partition later
[22:06] <nerder> this one is my ps aux: http://pastebin.com/MUXAA1dv
[22:06] <KM0201> guess i don't type as fast as i used to.. :)
[22:06] <j-4> jordan_u thanks for the help
[22:06] <nerder> should be helpful
[22:10] <nerder> what happend?
[22:10] <ke5pcv> wow
[22:10] <nerder> lol i'm still alive xD

[22:24] <levolent> 0b:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN [14e4:4311] (rev 01)
[22:24] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: You can use firmware-b43-installer now.
[22:24] <levolent> already tried that
[22:25] <levolent> its not showing any SSID and its resting on top a router
[22:26] <levolent> so what the b43 firmware-installer and !broadcom both fail, what then?
[22:27] <levolent> when*
[22:27] <altin> guys I installed bumblebee drivers and my screen won't suspend now :S
[22:27] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Good question... did the firmware-b43-installer fail due to "Unable to locate package"?
[22:27] <levolent> I ran "sudo apt-get update" then
[22:27] <levolent> sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[22:28] <levolent> sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source" and rebooted
[22:28] <levolent> and nothing
[22:28] <levolent> didn't see any errors at all, including the one you asked about
[22:28] <levolent> I do still have 6 firmware warns tho
[22:28] <ZrZeRenato> no bother, i just fix skype issues by reinstalling it.
[22:28] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Do you have an Internet (hard) connection on the computer with the Broadcom card?
[22:29] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Is there a reason after a certain amount of time I can no longer connect to websites with my Wifi?  It's still connected but just is an awful connection
[22:29] <levolent> yea
[22:29] <levolent> thats how i am talking here
[22:29] <Nisstyre-laptop> Kyzz[Mobile]: there could be a multitude of reasons. It could even be because you have an aquarium.
[22:30] <levolent> http://pastebin.com/tbjwHMmN
[22:30] <levolent> theres a list of my current firmware warns and bugs
[22:30] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Nisstyre-laptop: I'm on university internet and I didn't have issues on a Windows OS...
[22:30] <levolent> it was 11 originally then ActionParsnip got it down to 6
[22:30] <ZrZeRenato> another question... i read once ago, about wireless connections issues, and i see my internet is not working nice, is there any trick to deal with that?
[22:30] <Nisstyre-laptop> Kyzz[Mobile]: well they aren't using the same drivers
[22:30] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: You ditched bcmwl-kernel-source? You shouldn't have...
[22:30] <Nisstyre-laptop> so there's one variable
[22:30] <levolent> Harris came alone and wasted about half hour and brought it up to 9
[22:30] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Nisstyre-laptop: What do you mean by that exactly?
[22:31] <levolent> I was just following ActionParsnips instruction here
[22:31] <SonikkuAmerica> Nisstyre-laptop: An aquarium... somewho I doubt that. :)
[22:31] <nerder> SonikkuAmerica, could you help me?
[22:31] <levolent> so what do I do now?
[22:31] <nerder> i dnt know how can i do
[22:31] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Do what again? (It's been about an hour)
[22:32] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: reinstall the bcmwl-kernel-source as well as the firmware-b43-installer
[22:33] <levolent> tried guessing 2 commands in terminal and neither worked
[22:33] <Nisstyre-laptop> Kyzz[Mobile]: I mean windows is not using the same drivers as Linux (unless you're using ndiswrapper, but you should not be)
[22:33] <levolent> sudo apt-get firmware-b43-installer   and  sudo apt-get b43-firmware-installer both failed
[22:34] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: I know why... because the command is [ sudo apt-get install ], not just [ sudo apt-get ].
[22:34] <JJRambo> Hey, I've got a simple research assignment where I compare Windows/Ubuntu. Is there a way for me to check which security utilites Ubuntu has.
[22:34] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: I assume you're using Precise or Quantal?
[22:34] <levolent> ubuntu and terminal
[22:34] <JJRambo> For example, Windows has windows defender and Windows Firewall.
[22:34] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: define "security utilities"
[22:34] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Nisstyre-laptop: Any suggestions then?
[22:35] <Nisstyre-laptop> Kyzz[Mobile]: try a different driver
[22:35] <levolent> said i already have the newest vs
[22:35] <Nisstyre-laptop> or try tweaking your current one
[22:35] <JJRambo> Does Ubuntu have something similar to that or is security configured in a completely different way?
[22:35] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: Linux has iptables which is a firewall
[22:35] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop: Like how Windows has an inbuilt anti-virus called Defender and firewall.
[22:35] <threex5> I would like to know what version ID3 tags a given mp3 has. Is there a tool in Ubuntu where I can get that information
[22:35] <threex5> ?
[22:36] <levolent> k the bcmwl-kernel-source is installing
[22:36] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Nisstyre-laptop: I'm not even sure how to view my current driver.  (I'm new to Ubuntu)
[22:36] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop: Thanks I'll check that out.
[22:36] <levolent> do i need to reboot after that?
[22:36] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: Unix systems generally don't have antivirus programs, and even when they do they check for windows viruses to avoid passing them on
[22:36] <levolent> cause he had me reboot after removing them
[22:36] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Are you sill there?
[22:36] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Can you please use my nick in your messages?
[22:36] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: I can't see them without you doing so. kthx
[22:37] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop: Thank you very much, I'll probably have to comment that the majority of viruses don't target linux
[22:37] <betrayd> threex5: maybe your music player has a id3 viewer
[22:37] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: And the answer is no.
[22:37] <levolent> sonikkuamerica ok
[22:37] <RavenHursT> Hey everyone.. tying to add myself to the 'www-data' usergroup using the last command on this page => https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto  The command fires w/o any errors, but when I type "groups" I don't see www-data in the list.. what gives?
[22:37] <altin>  I installed bumblebee drivers and my screen won't suspend now :S]
[22:37] <threex5> thanks betrayd, I'm using nightingale, though, and it doesn
[22:37] <threex5> t
[22:38] <nerder> sorry SonikkuAmerica, yes i'm here
[22:38] <betrayd> threex5: not even as a plugin/addon?
[22:38] <Nisstyre-laptop> Kyzz[Mobile]: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[22:38] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Like I said before, I forgot what your issue was. I'm not a robot, after all.
[22:38] <RavenHursT> Am I doing something wrong?
[22:38] <ekajake> has anyone ever played lugaru?
[22:38] <threex5> betrayd, I don't believe so
[22:38] <RavenHursT> "sudo usermod -aG www-data myname"
[22:38] <nerder> LOL, sorry, you have a reason
[22:38] <SonikkuAmerica> !ot | ekajake:
[22:39] <nerder> anyway my problem is with resolution
[22:39] <SonikkuAmerica> !ot | ekajake
[22:39] <ekajake> Yeah I know, I need help.
[22:39] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Oh yes... (OH YES ABHI!)
[22:39] <levolent> sonikkuamerica http://pastebin.com/n3WG6hMx
[22:39] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Right... System Settings > Displays.
[22:39] <betrayd> threex5: i installed a id3v2 command line thing, but theres a dozen others that can give a fancy table
[22:39] <Gyorg> Hey guys, I installed 12.04 a few days ago and have been wondering why all of my web browsers seem to have trouble connecting to pages or take forever to load, the wireless drivers seem to be working fine and when I boot into Windows the pages load fine. The browsers I tried were Chromium and Firefox.
[22:40] <Gyorg> Any ideas?
[22:40] <levolent> were a few errors at the end and still no SSIDs showing, please advise sonikkuamerica
[22:40] <ekajake> http://postimg.org/image/7k3pfnss7/
[22:40] <threex5> betrayd, what one did you install? Which ones give a fancy table?
[22:40] <ekajake> I don't know where config.txt is.
[22:40] <ekajake> Or how to find it.
[22:40] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: OK... it looks like it messed with your initrd... so run [ sudo update-grub ]
[22:40] <nerder> i already do that
[22:41] <betrayd> id3v2 command, search freecode.com for fancier ones with mp3tag or smthing
[22:41] <RavenHursT> Oh.. I'm using 12.04 Server LTS btw
[22:41] <levolent> after that, do i rerun the bcmwl?
[22:41] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: (Please use my nick in your messages.) What resolutions does it display?
[22:41] <nerder> 800x600
[22:41] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop: Does Ubuntu have plug and play for hardware compability.
[22:41] <mong> gyorg: DNS? firefox attempting to 'autodetect proxy settings'?
[22:41] <nerder> SonikkuAmerica, if i try yo change
[22:41] <levolent> sonikkuamerica after that, do i rerun the bcmwl?
[22:41] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: if you mean the ability to use firmware via usb, then yes
[22:41] <nerder> even for a bit
[22:42] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: No. Reboot instead.
[22:42] <nerder> the display become totally black and i have to reboot
[22:42] <RavenHursT> Anyone here willing to help me with this user group problem?
[22:43] <levolent> sonikkuamerica http://pastebin.com/rgjEusPX rebooting now
[22:43] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop: Ah, I meant as in would it be easy to install drivers for hardware automatically like Windows PnP where you can plug a peripheral and without user intervention, it will install the drivers automatically and work
[22:43] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: It's probably because your driver only supports 8x6. (You're not following directions... please use my nick, thank you.)
[22:43] <Dr_Willis> JJRambo:  even easier for most devices
[22:43] <betrayd> RavenHursT: some1 did ^
[22:43] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: often the drivers are already in the kernel
[22:43] <Dr_Willis> JJRambo:  some video and wireless cards are the exception
[22:43] <Nisstyre-laptop> JJRambo: obviously it can't use windows firmware from USB devices though
[22:44] <nerder> SonikkuAmerica, i dnt think cause in the login screen everything is ok
[22:44] <JJRambo> Nisstyre-laptop, Dr_Willis: Ah, I see. Thanks.
[22:44] <RavenHursT> betrayd: they did?  I must've missed it.. skimming now...
[22:44] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: (Thank you. Keep using my nick.) What driver are you using, a proprietary one?
[22:45] <nerder> i dnt know cause i never install, i'm just connecting my display and everything was done
[22:45] <betrayd> no RavenHursT sorry
[22:45] <nerder> SonikkuAmerica,  i dnt know cause i never install, i'm just connecting my display and everything was done
[22:45] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: VGA, HDMI, DVI?
[22:45] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Component? (LOL)
[22:46] <Dr_Willis> SonikkuAmerica:  My rasperrypi can do composite out. ;P
[22:46] <RavenHursT> betrayd: yeah.. not seeing that anyone answered my question..
[22:46] <SonikkuAmerica> Dr_Willis: Ooh... composite!
[22:46] <RavenHursT> I'm sure it's something stupid
[22:46] <RavenHursT> I'm missing something..
[22:47] <edeck> Why hello everyone!
[22:48] <RavenHursT> oh.. usermod doesn't take effect until that user logs in again.. so.. since I was trying to change MY user.. just had to logout and log back in.
[22:48] <ZapatoVeloz> Hi guise.... I have a serious problem with my ubuntu
[22:49] <SonikkuAmerica> ZapatoVeloz: (SpeedShoe!) What kind of a problem?
[22:50] <jjjjjjj> I have a question for mac users in here who virtualize ubuntu desktop, should I buy buy vmware fusion 5 or parallels desktop 8?
[22:50] <Dr_Willis> jjjjjjj:  tried virtualbox yet?
[22:51] <ZapatoVeloz> I have a serious issue with my ubuntu install.
[22:51] <ZapatoVeloz> I don't find my ms paint
[22:51] <jjjjjjj> Dr_Willis:  yes
[22:51] <ZapatoVeloz> I just installed it but I cannot find ms paint
[22:51] <Dr_Willis> !info mtpaint | ZapatoVeloz
[22:51] <ZapatoVeloz> DrWillis... I want the real deal!
[22:51] <ZapatoVeloz> what is mt paint
[22:51] <Dr_Willis> ZapatoVeloz:   a ms paint clone basically.
[22:52] <Dragon64> hi ho! I installed ubuntu 13.04 with a home partition I had previusly used for lubuntu. Now the desktop shows all the files and folders from my home folder ... any one know how to turn that off ? Thanks!
[22:52] <Dragon64> I have googled, without any luck
[22:52] <levolent> hi sonikkuamerice I rebooted, still no SSIDs
[22:52] <ZapatoVeloz> Dr_willis... yeah but I need MS Paint!!!!!!! why I cannot find it
[22:52] <levolent> hi sonikkuamerice I rebooted, still no SSIDs
[22:52] <levolent> hi sonikkuamerica I rebooted, still no SSIDs
[22:52] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Be patient.
[22:52] <ZapatoVeloz> probably you are not listening right... I just installed Ubuntu, and tried to find MS Paint but it is not there... it is a fresh install
[22:53] <Gyorg> How much swap space do you guys have set, if any. Do you think it's really necessary?
[22:53] <Dr_Willis> ZapatoVeloz:  copy it off a windows install.  Most people wont use their swap, but if you do anything that is memory intensive it may come in handy
[22:54] <Dr_Willis> Same trolling as last week.. how dull.
[22:54] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Nisstyre-laptop: So those are the cards that are supported?
[22:54] <Dragon64> Its such a small amount of space I just set it and forget it
[22:54] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Run this: [ sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl brcmfmac brcmsmac bcma ]
[22:54] <Dragon64> whats 2 gig on a 600gig drive?
[22:55] <SonikkuAmerica> Dr_Willis: Unless he meant MyPaint...
[22:55] <Dr_Willis> SonikkuAmerica:  no.. he was trolling.
[22:55] <Dr_Willis> exact same trolling dialog as a week or so ago.
[22:56] <SonikkuAmerica> Dr_Willis: "I installed Windows 8 and can't find Nautilus! Ackkk! Help!"
[22:56] <Gyorg> lol
[22:57] <levolent> SonikkuAmerica, FATAL: Module ssb is in use.
[22:58] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Then hit the up arrow and edit "ssb" out.
[23:00] <t3hb055nueb> Hi
[23:00] <levolent> SonikkuAmerica, guess it worked? just instantly puts a prompt for new input and echoes nothing
[23:00] <Gyorg> Does anybody know why I might be experiencing screen tearing? It seems to be more noticeable on Cinnamon and Gnome Classic than it is on Unity.
[23:00] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: It isn't supposed to.
[23:00] <levolent> sonikkuamerica still no SSIDs
[23:01] <levolent> k
[23:01] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: now [ lspci ]
[23:01] <t3hb055nueb> I have a 3.3gig single core pc, 1.5gram.100ghdrive.....|..Can I set ubuntu up so that it boots and runs from a flash drive and use the H-drive in the pc just for file storage?
[23:02] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  you can run totally from an external usb, or sd card.
[23:02] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: Thanks and are there any downsides?
[23:03] <presonic> recommend some audio cd buring softare?
[23:03] <presonic> software*
[23:03] <SonikkuAmerica> t3hb055nueb: You have to keep the media inserted at all times...?
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  it willbe slower then an internal HD of course
[23:03] <SonikkuAmerica> !best | presonic
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> !burn | presonic
[23:03] <Kyzz[Mobile]> Is ubuntu server easy to setup?
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> Kyzz[Mobile]:  the server is.. the specific services are the hard part
[23:04] <t3hb055nueb> How much slower? will that be for reading writing? I plan on playing a TEXT based video game/mud while I am downloading and updloading files from my internal hdrive.
[23:04] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: Nm. I am going to test it out myself, thanks
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  boot times will be very noticeably slower.
[23:05] <levolent> SonikkuAmerica, http://pastebin.com/c25cQPj1
[23:05] <eN_Joy> is it in general safe(hassle free) to upgrade from desktop 12.10 to 13.04? given that i manage my box remotely, are there any precautions that i need to consider? thanks
[23:05] <t3hb055nueb> I do not restart or shutdown very much at all.
[23:05] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Got it. [ sudo modprobe b43 ]
[23:05] <t3hb055nueb> Does anyone know how I can download the Videos on Youtube?
[23:05] <Dr_Willis> eN_Joy:  remote upgradeing to a Beta release..  (or even a normal release) has been known to cause issues
[23:06] <levolent> sonikkuamerica done
[23:06] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  tons of youtube download extensions for firefox
[23:06] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Now check your wireless.
[23:06] <levolent> sonikkuamerica nothing has changed
[23:06] <levolent> sonikkuamerica still no SSIDs
[23:06] <eN_Joy> Dr_Willis: of course not to beta,
[23:06] <delinquentme> So I've got a server running 12.04 ... and we've got a number of people working on it and I"m not sure about the latency times
[23:06] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Is there a wireless network anywhere near your present location?
[23:06] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: Thanks. So... I have an ubuntu dvd, boot disk. I would plug my flash drive in... reboot and install to the flash drive, correct?
[23:07] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Also, is your Wi-Fi controlled by a switch?
[23:07] <eN_Joy> i'm just doing my homework in advance
[23:07] <delinquentme> so this is all LAN ... and I"m wondering if theres a simple ticker which would keep track of events ... as well as server latency time ... while not sucking any substantial resources off the machine
[23:07] <levolent> it says disabled by switch but i have none
[23:07] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Internal switch?
[23:07] <levolent> nevermind found it
[23:07] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  yes. same as you would a real hd.
[23:07] <levolent> thanks!
[23:08] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: That was probably the problem all along...
[23:13] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: =) Last question I think, can I take that usb drive and plug it into another computer with it working?
[23:13] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  should. but any special hard ware (wireless/video) may need differnt drivers.
[23:13] <tor_> is it still to early to ask rare tail questions here? it is regarding hangs freeze and slow 3d games. i have a ATI HD 2400 graphics card but find no thirdparty driver
[23:14] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: I am new to ubuntu, but I am learning fast. How would I add something to said usb, so It has on file drivers for any hardware it comes across.  Would like a fully operable os on the flash drive, that works on any pc. Internet or not.
[23:15] <t3hb055nueb> Even some direction in how to proceed with that would be nice.
[23:15] <tor_> t2hb055nueb: yes
[23:16] <tor_> just down load iso
[23:16] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  then use a live-persistant install if you are going to be moveing it around from one pc to another a lot.
[23:16] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  not a 'full' normal install.
[23:16] <tor_> boot from a cd
[23:16] <tor_> then choose the usb installer software
[23:16] <betrayd> !raring
[23:17] <Dr_Willis> live persistant install -> basically same as booting from cd + ability to save stuff to the usb
[23:17] <oday> is it true that chromium is the best browser for linux?
[23:17] <tor_> you can then set the amount of the usb that will be kept for settings and files
[23:17] <betrayd> tor: too early, yes
[23:17] <t3hb055nueb> Ok, I know how to install Ubuntu onto my pc, using full normal install.
[23:17] <k1l> oday: there is no best. everyone has his own best. just try some browsers to find your best
[23:18] <tor_> t2hb055nueb: du you already have it installed?
[23:19] <tor_> t2hb055nueb: startup disk creator is the software you are lookiing for
[23:19] <tor_> it takes files from the iso and make a persistent install to a stick or external drive
[23:20] <tor_> t2hb055nueb: startup disk creator is in ubuntu by default
[23:21] <Gyorg> Well, I'm off. See ya guys!
[23:22] <oday> k1l, hi.
[23:29] <levolent> this on?
[23:29] <levolent> SonikkuAmerica, ?
[23:31] <levolent> weird...i can see people joining and quitting but no chat
[23:32] <Geek31> salut
[23:32] <levolent> geek31 and moutarde... welcome
[23:32] <levolent> cool i see chat!
[23:32] <SonikkuAmerica> levolent: Yeah... We went thru 2 netsplits
[23:32] <levolent> SonikkuAmerica, thanks for the help!
[23:32] <levolent> 2 netsplits?
[23:32] <SonikkuAmerica> You're welcome.
[23:32] <SonikkuAmerica> !netsplit
[23:33] <levolent> thanks again guys! later
[23:36] <chick3n> im having a lot of trouble mounting an NFS export. when i attempt to mount it from the client it just sits there and does nothing
[23:36] <chick3n> ive verified the export on the server and all seems well there. rpcinfo -p shows its running
[23:36] <t3hb055nueb> this is what I should be looking at? for a livecd on a usb, that can save to itself be customized further after implemention?
[23:36] <t3hb055nueb> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD/Persistence?highlight=%28%5CbCategoryLive%5Cb%29\\
[23:37] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  just dont go extreme on installing/customizing the live cd setup.
[23:37] <t3hb055nueb> Dr_Willis: You mean start simple and then go from there?
[23:37] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:   keep it simple. ;)
[23:37] <t3hb055nueb> What does extreme get you?
[23:37] <t3hb055nueb> Yea yea, lightweight.
[23:38] <Dr_Willis> not lightweight.. keep it close to the default setup for what you install.. anything else you install will slow it down a bit / and make your save file bigger. and in the case of some drivers might not work properly
[23:39] <tor_> so, how would you go about to get ATI graphics going on 12.10?
[23:39] <t3hb055nueb> The save file on the usb should be kept small then?
[23:39] <t3hb055nueb> Using a 16gig usb.
[23:39] <Geek31> une fille simpat de toulouse a contacter en cas de problemes:<PHONE_NUMBER>
[23:40] <Dr_Willis> t3hb055nueb:  installing extra kernels and drivers will be the biggest issue with working with a live-setup
[23:43] <Guest17317> Is anyone on Ubuntu One to answer questions?
[23:44] <oday> ubuntu 12.10 - i'm trying to move a file called .conkyrc to a home folder and it won't let me with a permission denied error.. what to do?
[23:44] <t3hb055nueb> I only wanted to add a few programs to it. Wintin++ ,Xirc, devede..

[23:45] <SonikkuAmerica> nerder: Inside /etc/X11/
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> oday:  whats the exact command you are using?
[23:45] <nerder> find / -iname xorg.conf
[23:45] <nerder> nothing in there
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  its /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:46] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  IF it exists
[23:46] <nerder> there is
[23:46] <nerder> xorg.conf.failsafe
[23:46] <Dr_Willis> then you dont have an xorg.conf on your system if none is there.

[23:46] <DarkAceLaptop> and how do I add a user?
[23:46] <Dr_Willis> DarkAceLaptop:  as one user, to another, you can use su i recall.
[23:47] <Dr_Willis> DarkAceLaptop:  sudo adduser username     is one way
[23:47] <sporkeee> lol Dr_Willis
[23:47] <nerder> Dr_Willis, i have some resolution problem just with this user, cause when i log in another one everything is correct
[23:47] <oday> Dr_Willis, i'm doing it with from nautilus not commands
[23:47] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  each user can have their own res setting.
[23:47] <Dr_Willis> oday:  i would suggest using the commands so you can see the exact errors.

[23:48] <iandalton> Hello everyone
[23:48] <harris> anyone have good tuorial for making game in python
[23:48] <Dr_Willis> oday:  cp /path/to/file /path/to/other/place
[23:48] <DarkAceLaptop> done
[23:49] <Dr_Willis> harris:  theres a python game of the week web site that has lots of little games for examples
[23:49] <DarkAceLaptop> now say I want to run xchat as "tempuser"
[23:49] <DarkAceLaptop> what command?
[23:49] <iandalton> harris: I have heard of http://inventwithpython.com/
[23:49] <JonnyNomad> harris: the book "Python for Kids" has a game making walk through
[23:49] <harris> how much is it
[23:49] <nerder> Dr_Willis, http://pastebin.com/s4zexnVY
[23:50] <slobad23> harris, there are definitely books dedicated to learning python through game development.
[23:50] <Dr_Willis> DarkAceLaptop:  check  'su --help'
[23:50] <oday> Dr_Willis, ty.
[23:50] <nerder> this one is my xorg.config.failsafe
[23:50] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  if other users work.. and one user does not.. then that tells me that the problem user has a config file thats the issue.
[23:51] <nerder> Dr_Willis, umm, how can i check it?
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> theres some setting file in the users home dir that sets a res for that user. or use that monitors/display tool to set the res
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> system settings -> display
[23:51] <nerder> Dr_Willis, if i try to set the resolution the monitor become totally black
[23:51] <nerder> and i have to reboot
[23:52] <Dr_Willis>  tried going to the console? 'apt-ctrl-f1' and just restarting X ?
[23:52] <DarkAceLaptop> su --login tempuser?
[23:52] <DarkAceLaptop> su --login
[23:52] <nerder> how can i quit the X server?
[23:52] <Dr_Willis> sudo service lightdm restart    will restart X
[23:53] <DarkAceLaptop> got it, thanks Dr_Willis
[23:53] <nerder> ok i'll try
[23:54] <nerder> Dr_Willis, nothing.
[23:55] <Dr_Willis> 'nothing' tells us.. just that ... 'nothing'.... what do you mean
[23:55] <harris> is the a free pdf for python for kids
[23:55] <slobad23> harris, I'm sure you can find one, even if there isn't supposed to be.
[23:55] <nerder> Dr_Willis, i'll explain, so if i restart the X serv the login module page is at the correct resolution, but when i logged in
[23:56] <nerder> everything is the same
[23:56] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  and other USERS work correctly?
[23:56] <nerder> yes
[23:56] <xibalba> anyone know of an IRC daemon appliance? Turnkey Linux Style?
[23:56] <SonikkuAmerica> Dr_Willis: Is this where we say to nerder he should trash the .Xauthority?
[23:56] <Dr_Willis> so.. look in  th problem users Home and  .config dirs for the setting file that sets the resolution, and remove it
[23:57] <Dr_Willis> nerder:  so the ONLY issue is the res is incorrect?
[23:57] <nerder> so i run ls -a in the home dir
[23:58] <nerder> i delete .Xauth
[23:58] <nerder> and after that i change resolution, is that correct?
[23:58] <Dr_Willis> .Xauthority issues would stop you from logging in.. not affect your res./ theres Some other file that does the res. and i dont recall its name
[23:59] <nerder> there is .xsession-errors
[23:59] <nerder> .config
