[00:01] <histo> Helpme123: basically you need to resize the windows partition so you have space to install ubuntu. Then install ubuntu to the free space.
[00:01] <jda2000> histo: OerHeks The question was not "Who knows nothing about festival or espeak".
[00:02] <jda2000> but thanks for playing.
[00:02] <histo> jda2000: right, don't poll as to what is best. It completely depends on what you want/excpect.
[00:02] <kingston> optimal,  I think your not getting my PM's
[00:02] <OerHeks> orca screenreader is awesome :-)
[00:03] <Helpme123> looks like just xp partition in gparted
[00:03] <optimal> kingston just do a 'dmesg' without the grep and send me the url
[00:04] <jda2000> histo: because crowdsourcing is not a thing.
[00:04] <kingston> optimal, http://pastebin.com/VXLNTH2U
[00:05] <OerHeks> Helpme123, so what happens when you set your sata controller to AHCI in your bios?
[00:05] <optimal> kingston one sec
[00:06] <kingston> ok thank you
[00:06] <Helpme123> doubt it's a sata hdd
[00:06] <Helpme123> probably more like memory card
[00:07] <histo> jda2000: not hear
[00:07] <histo> s/hear/here/
[00:07] <OerHeks> Helpme123, if it is a netbook, it would have a ssd i guess = sata
[00:08] <Helpme123> ok it is labelled ssd
[00:09] <histo> Helpme123: what size ssd is it?
[00:09] <optimal> kingston i only see three devices including the kindle fire
[00:09] <histo> Helpme123: and how much data is on the windows partition?  That could be why, if it's small and near full.
[00:09] <Helpme123> about 160 gb
[00:09] <kingston> optimal,  yes. That sounds right.
[00:09] <optimal> ok
[00:10] <kingston> one is my HDD, another is a USB flash, and the fire
[00:10] <Helpme123> looks like the widows partition is all of it
[00:11] <kingston> optimal,  currently Im running my OS off the Flash because my HDD is bunk
[00:12] <jda2000> Festival reads it's own Wikipedia page and sound more like Stephen Hawking.
[00:12] <histo> Helpme123: well resize windows partition if you insist on dual booting and install ubuntu to the free unpartitioned space
[00:12] <optimal> kingston - one sec
[00:12] <histo> !ot | jda2000
[00:12] <kingston> optimal, ok
[00:13] <optimal> alright
[00:13] <optimal> i need to get pm working this sucks
[00:14] <jda2000> histo: You must be smoking crack if you think the relative level of satisfaction between two packages in the Ubuntu repository is off topic.
[00:15] <optimal> kingston is the fire in mass storage mode?
[00:15] <Helpme123> Thanks for your help
[00:16] <optimal> go to your kindle fire configs and let me know if its in USB Mass storage mode
[00:16] <kingston> optimal,  i dont know.
[00:16] <kingston> ok let me loook
[00:17] <optimal> turn it on go to settings and tell me what mode its in for USB connections
[00:18] <OerHeks> optimal, i already told him it is not an MTP device, kindle HD 6
[00:19] <optimal> should be easy enough if the device is recognized by the machine
[00:20] <optimal> ok
[00:20] <optimal> these devices arent auto-recognized in Linux
[00:20] <optimal> u need to install
[00:20] <optimal> sudo apt-get install gmtp
[00:21] <optimal> http://www.linuxandlife.com/2013/01/Kindle-Fire-HD-Linux-recognize.html
[00:21] <kingston> optimal,  no option to choose mass storage mode far as i can tell
[00:22] <optimal> kingston u can just instal gmtp
[00:22] <optimal> sudo apt-get install gmtp
[00:23] <kingston> installed
[00:23] <optimal> then connect the kindle, runt gmtp, once its loaded click Connect
[00:23] <optimal> then click Add
[00:23] <optimal> to add files
[00:23] <optimal> seems like the easiest solution
[00:24] <kingston> optimal,  it says : Detect: No raw devices found.
[00:24] <optimal> go to the gmtp settings
[00:25] <optimal> and tell me what u see
[00:25] <OerHeks> it is recognized, idVendor=1949:00f2 , but according to this bugreport https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1164498 it will be in next version  <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:26] <OerHeks> Ubuntu is still on 1.1.8 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmtp
[00:26] <optimal> oer, that means its unsupported?
[00:26] <OerHeks> Not yet, indeed.
[00:27] <optimal> thats for redhat thro
[00:28] <kingston> optimal,  gmtp prefrences just has some options for auto download and stuff like that. not much else.
[00:28] <optimal> king, what OS r u running?
[00:28] <kingston> Xubuntu
[00:28] <optimal> hmm
[00:29] <optimal> ehem unmount the device
[00:30] <optimal> then run gmtp again
[00:31] <optimal> sudo umount /device/pathname/here
[00:31] <optimal> then plug it in and run the app again
[00:32] <kingston> optimal,  how do I find where it's mounted?
[00:32] <optimal> run 'lsblk'
[00:34] <optimal> paste it in
[00:34] <optimal> do this:
[00:34] <dholbert> hi folks! I'm looking to report a bug in the "light-themes" Ubuntu package ( https://launchpad.net/light-themes ), but its "Report a bug" link [on that page] is grayed out. Anyone know where I can report a bug in Ubuntu default themes?
[00:34] <histo> kingston: output of mount will show you
[00:35] <kingston> optimal,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/11933976/
[00:35] <histo> !bug | dholbert
[00:35] <dholbert> histo, thanks, trying ubuntu-bug now
[00:36] <optimal> kingston how big is ur storage on the fire
[00:36] <kingston> 8gb
[00:37] <ilbeIkyr> hey genii :)
[00:37] <optimal> not showing up here
[00:37] <ilbeIkyr> do you want to kick out the real ilbelkyr now?
[00:37] <ilbeIkyr> i know u want to
[00:37]  * genii sips
[00:37] <optimal> give me 5 minutes
[00:37] <kingston> ok
[00:37] <kingston> thank you
[00:38] <optimal> what is 60 GB whats that
[00:38] <kingston> my os
[00:38] <optimal> oooo
[00:38] <kingston> running it off of US?B
[00:38] <optimal> ok
[00:40] <optimal> i dont see it
[00:40] <optimal> try mount

[00:42] <optimal> egats
[00:42] <optimal> anyone have any ideas?
[00:43] <reisio> yeah, world domination
[00:44] <optimal> its not showing
[00:44] <optimal> so its unsupported
[00:44] <optimal> weve confirmed tha
[00:45] <optimal> what do u need a kindle for anyway?
[00:45] <optimal> reading books?
[00:45] <kingston> lol it was a gift
[00:45] <OerHeks> use wifi to connect to something?
[00:45] <optimal> can u watch movies on it?
[00:45] <kingston> Yea, books etc.
[00:45] <kingston> yea, amazon instant and netflix
[00:46] <optimal> yeah
[00:46] <optimal> how much is amazon instant?
[00:46] <kingston> optimal,  I pay  100$ a year for prime
[00:46] <kingston> it comes with it
[00:46] <OerHeks> or get an dropbox plugin, done
[00:46] <optimal> u know about these oer?
[00:47] <OerHeks> just googled it, kindle HD + dropbox
[00:47] <optimal> ya
[00:48] <optimal> i know nothing about Kindles but they sound pretty cool they run Android I assume having read that somewhere
[00:48] <optimal> hows the display? is it book-worthy?
[00:49] <kingston> optimal, this is my first one. I like it. I hope to put proper android on it at some point but the screen is nice and i love the size
[00:49] <kingston> 6" is great
[00:50] <optimal> i wonder if putting android on it will fix your problem
[00:52] <optimal> i dont know if its just not recognized
[00:53] <optimal> but those bug reports were from redhat
[00:53] <optimal> so...
[00:53] <optimal> i dont think they apply to xubuntu
[00:53] <OerHeks> That patch went upstream, so we will get it eventually
[00:54] <optimal> oh ok
[00:54] <raul782> Hi guys

[00:54] <raul782> unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
[00:55] <optimal> what is it that you are trying to do?
[00:55] <OerHeks> raul782,  count the '

[00:58] <optimal> who asked u...
[00:58] <optimal> lol jp lol
[00:59] <OerHeks> i wonder about this part >   '\''kernel'\''
[00:59] <rww> yeah, that does seem odd
[00:59] <optimal> he needs more
[00:59] <raul782> I believe the next command might be the cause
[00:59] <raul782> sed -i 's/if (\$env == '\''test'\'') {/ \/\/if (\$env == '\''test'\'') {/g" $(pwd)/src/AppBundle/Controller/DefaultController.php
[01:00] <rww> yes, that should have a ' where the " is
[01:00] <OerHeks> oh
[01:00] <OerHeks> by editting, i notice you use doeble ' as a "
[01:00] <OerHeks> double*
[01:01] <optimal> yea did you write that expression
[01:01] <optimal> raul
[01:01] <optimal> looks fishy to me
[01:01] <OerHeks> It's a good learning example :-)

[01:31] <kokut> Hello, i just installed an SSD in one of my ubuntu machines and its copying files below 10mb/s... is this normal ? i tested it and it came out at 500mb/s
[01:33] <histo> kokut: copying files to and from where?
[01:33] <TBotNik> All: I keep getting errors from my FireFox browser and know it is related to "keytracker viruses" that are now being stored via the HTML5 cache. Where do I find help to located and delete these?
[01:33] <TBotNik> I have pastebin at: http://pastebin.com/i5Tjv8cp.    You would take a performance hit with smaller files like that.
[01:35] <kokut> histo: is it possible to fix that? ill be moving lots of small sites around on this machine :\
[01:35] <OerHeks> TBotNik, cache would be in ~/.cache
[01:35] <krismatrix> Hi...i need help with a corruption or error on my machine...there is a red circle with a white minus sighn.
[01:36] <krismatrix> clicking on it...and it says...
[01:36] <krismatrix> an error occurred..please open package manager...has some problem with steampowered something.
[01:36] <krismatrix> But I can't open either ubuntu package manager OR synaptic package manager
[01:38] <histo> kokut: you could try tar'ng the files and copying them.
[01:38] <kokut> histo: yea will try that i guess
[01:38] <histo> kokut: try copying a bigger file and see if the speed increases.
[01:39] <histo> kokut: truncate -s 100M foo  then try to copy foo
[01:39] <TBotNik> Looking for a resource to solve this so any help appreciated!
[01:40] <histo> ctually that wont work
[01:40] <OerHeks> TBotNik, cache would be in ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox
[01:41] <histo> kokut: sorry use dd bs=1M count=100 if=/dev/zero of=foo
[01:41] <TBotNik> OerHeks: Looking!
[01:42] <kokut> histo: yea

[01:59] <TBotNik> OerHeks: Do I delete everything in the /.cache dir?
[02:00] <OerHeks> TBotNik, that is the safest way, delete the firefox folder, it removes plugins/addons too
[02:00] <TBotNik> OerHeks: Dir is: /root/.cache/mozilla/firefox/vu8fs315.default/  so delete all in there?
[02:01] <krismatrix> ok..managed to fix my problem...
[02:04] <OerHeks> TBotNik, yes, the firefox folder and contents
[02:04] <OerHeks> TBotNik, still wonder why you think there is a keylogger active
[02:04] <OerHeks> in html5
[02:11] <kokut> Anyone knows where to copy the ssh keys i just crated in my server?
[02:13] <histo> kokut: it's easier if you just use ssh-copy-id to put them in the right place. But if you want to manually you put the pub in authorized keys and the private on your client in the .ssh/id_rsa
[02:13] <histo> assuming it's an rsa key
[02:14] <kokut> histo: yes, how is it easier to ssh-copy-id?
[02:15] <histo> kokut: on the client generate keys with ssh-keygen and then ssh-copy-id user@someserver   it will then place the public key in the authorized keys file for you.
[02:17] <kokut> histo: does it ask for some kind of passphrase when connecting to the server or something?
[02:17] <optimal> ya
[02:17] <optimal> it does
[02:17] <kokut> k
[02:18] <histo> kokut: yea for yoour user.  After you enter the passphrase and the key is copied then next time it wont'. Unless you password protected your key.
[02:18] <histo> kokut: make sure you remove yoru private key from the server if you are going to use that one.
[02:20] <histo> kokut: the authorized_keys file on the server is in the ~/.ssh  directory
[02:23] <yorwos> im trying to figure out how to access network settings to setup, i just got a usb wifi stick , it seems wlan0 is created but how/where do i connect it to my router ?
[02:23] <optimal> is the interface up and running?
[02:23] <plytro_> gui interface
[02:23] <plytro_> not the cli interface
[02:24] <yorwos> i have no idea but i think yes it is
[02:24] <optimal> no
[02:24] <optimal> the connection interface in the network connection sense of the word
[02:25] <optimal> paste.ubuntu.com
[02:25] <optimal> copy the output from the command ifconfig
[02:26] <DDR> Hello, all. What is the package called that provides me default the login prompt for Gnome? I usually use a different prompt, but sometimes both pop up and I think I end up with two sessions.
[02:26] <optimal> yorwos
[02:26] <yorwos> ipconfig not found
[02:26] <plytro> ifconfig
[02:26] <optimal> yorwos: ifconfig
[02:26] <yorwos> oops
[02:27] <plytro> yorwos: are you doing a gui/mouse and clicky buttons install?
[02:27] <yorwos> paste.ubuntu.com/11934563/
[02:27] <plytro> or are you installing server?
[02:27] <optimal> are you installing a new os or connecting an already configured machine?
[02:27] <plytro> oh
[02:27] <yorwos> im using a desktop ,was using ethernet cable but decided to get this thing to avoid the cable on the floor
[02:28] <plytro> I misunderstood "setup"
[02:28] <plytro> I was thinking initial setup
[02:28] <yorwos> already using the machine , ubuntu studio 14.04
[02:28] <optimal> studio
[02:28] <plytro> yorwos: can you find network-manager?
[02:28] <Anygma^> hi, i have a question if someone don't mind me asking...  i have a failed update due to full boot drive.  does that mean i will have to reinstall ubuntu?
[02:28] <optimal> i would
[02:28] <yorwos> yea its in greek but translated shouold be , settings->network connections->
[02:28] <optimal> yorwos u should be able to connect wifi
[02:28] <Anygma^> *sigh*
[02:29] <plytro> Anygma^: you don't "have" to reinstall
[02:29] <DDR> In addition, using gnome-classic, I can't resize some windows.
[02:29] <plytro> but it will result in the cleanest results
[02:29] <DDR> Such as "files".
[02:29] <yorwos> if i choose to add wifi i get a menu with things asking for values for SSID , BSSID , MAC adress , cloned MAC adress
[02:29] <Idle23834> if i run a anti virus scan on / will that cover all the files on the OS/partition/hdd (depending on context ofc)?
[02:29] <yorwos> in mac adress i can choose from dropdown the wlan0
[02:30] <Anygma^> hehe, no doubt it will be cleanest, it will be a new fresh install ...
[02:30] <plytro> Anygma^: what is in your /boot?
[02:30] <optimal> copy  and paste that mac address
[02:30] <plytro> lots of old kernels?
[02:30] <plytro> have you done an apt-get autoremove?
[02:30] <optimal> if it matches ifconfig then it should be up and running
[02:30] <Bashing-om> Anygma^: Maybe a full /boot partition. Try and see if "sudo apt-get autoremove " will free up the disk space .
[02:30] <yorwos> 30:B5:C2:18:10:1C (wlan0)
[02:30] <Anygma^> ok, i will try the autoremove thing first, thanks
[02:30] <optimal> your golden
[02:31] <Anygma^> is my data safe or should i back up everything first?
[02:31] <yorwos> but where do i put the router's password ?
[02:31] <yorwos> how will it find it to connect to it ?
[02:31] <plytro> enter the ssid
[02:31] <Idle23834> if i run a anti virus scan on the directory / , will this scan all the files on the OS/partition/hdd(depending on context?
[02:31] <optimal> just try
[02:31] <plytro> that is the name of the router
[02:31] <optimal> it might ask u after
[02:32] <plytro> and there should be a tab Wi-Fi Security
[02:33] <optimal> go to wirless connections
[02:34] <yorwos> got it
[02:34] <yorwos> it says connected ill try to unplug the ethernet
[02:34] <optimal> it should connect no problem
[02:34] <Anygma^> it say it will free up 578 mb of space
[02:35] <Anygma^> oh great, an other problem pop up warning
[02:36] <yorwos_> its me , its working it seems !
[02:37] <optimal> ya
[02:37] <yorwos_> thnx a lot optimal and rest pple :)
[02:37] <optimal> np
[02:37] <yorwos_> so this is usb2 , do u think it will be too slow compared to cable ?
[02:38] <optimal> what is the wifi device?
[02:38] <yorwos_> the model ?
[02:38] <optimal> what is it
[02:38] <yorwos_> 150mbps high gain wireless usb adapter
[02:39] <optimal> u should be ok
[02:39] <optimal> what speeds are you getting?
[02:39] <yorwos_> no idea !
[02:39] <optimal> speedtest.net
[02:39] <yorwos_> ill try speedtest
[02:40] <Rapper777> .

[02:41] <optimal> shoud be good for surfing and irc :)
[02:42] <yorwos_> thats ok then :D
[02:42] <yorwos_> if i need huge downloads ill use the ethernet hehe
[02:42] <yorwos_> gr8

[02:43] <jluc> Hello
[02:43] <Idle23834> if i scan the / directory with anti virus will i scan the entire os?
[02:44] <optimal> yea
[02:44] <optimal> what anti virus are you using
[02:44] <jluc> I have an issue with ubuntu 14.04 : i need to log twice everytime i switch the computer on
[02:44] <Idle23834> clamav
[02:44] <jluc> how can i avoid that ?
[02:46] <optimal> go to User Accounts
[02:46] <optimal> or system settings
[02:46] <rypervenche> Idle23834: Yes, although.
[02:47] <Idle23834> thanks
[02:47] <rypervenche> Idle23834: I might run it while the system is off, but yes, you can run it against /. I would probably run it on only directories that you need, like /home and /var/www
[02:47] <Idle23834> ok thank you
[02:48] <reisio> he's not going to be having any fun
[02:48] <optimal> how fast would it scan a base install
[02:48] <optimal> ^ ryper
[02:48] <reisio> on a spinner, not fast :p
[02:49] <optimal> lol
[02:49] <reisio> but mostly he's not going to use a log
[02:49] <reisio> or -i
[02:49] <lotuspsychje> scans alot of dirs
[02:49] <reisio> or -r
[02:49] <reisio> or --detect-pua-wtfevr
[02:49] <reisio> he's just going to be sad
[02:49] <reisio> and even if he isn't, it's so unlikely he'll find anything worth finding
[02:50] <optimal> thats depressing
[02:51] <jluc> MeanTreeFrogs, was "go to user accounts" or "system settings" an answer to my issue ?
[02:51] <jluc> i have to enter the paswword twice each time i login
[02:52] <jluc> i would like to enter it once
[02:52] <jluc> is this known issue with 14.04 ?
[02:53] <DDR> Why do I have to supply my password to log in AND log out? It says other users are logged in, then it lists only me. :(
[02:53] <reisio> DDR: two reasons
[02:53] <reisio> DDR: 1) so you don't accidentally log people out that don't want to be
[02:53]  * DDR perks up
[02:54] <reisio> DDR: 2) because Ubuntu misuses sudo
[02:54] <DDR> But I'm the only people?
[02:54] <reisio> DDR: check with 'w' in a terminal
[02:54] <DDR> we have guest-ot and myself.
[02:55] <reisio> right, well
[02:55] <reisio> that's two users, isn't it
[02:55] <DDR> Correct.
[02:55] <reisio> two is more than one
[02:55] <reisio> two != only
[02:55] <DDR> But I'm still fundamentally only -one- person, regardless of what the computer says.
[02:55] <reisio> y'see?
[02:55] <DDR> Yes. :(
[02:55] <reisio> mmmm, well
[02:56] <reisio> you've told the computer there are two people logged on
[02:56] <reisio> do you want your computer to second guess you?
[02:56] <reisio> sounds annoying to me
[02:56] <wileee> what are you doing dave
[02:56] <reisio> "I know you wanted to open a browser, but here's a video of a chainsaw massacre instead"
[02:56] <reisio> daisy... daisy
[02:56] <bazhang> could we get a bit more on topic here please
[02:57] <DDR> heh
[02:57] <DDR> Yeah, the thing is I haven't, the computer has somehow, somewhere, invented a user.
[02:57] <DDR> I may be a shitty sysadmin. :p
[02:57] <reisio> DDR: so if you reboot, and log in, and type 'w', it shows guest-ot?
[02:57] <bazhang> no cursing here ddr
[02:57] <DDR> Yes.
[02:58] <reisio> that does sound incorrect to me
[02:58] <reisio> if you don't plan on using any guest user, the simplest solution may well be userdel -r guest-ot :D but that might also break things weeee
[02:58] <mekhami> what exactly is GTK?
[02:58] <MeanTreeFrogs> dont do that
[02:59] <DDR> output of w: http://www.pasteall.org/59820
[02:59] <bazhang> mekhami, the gnome tool kit
[02:59]  * DDR shrugs and tries it
[02:59] <MeanTreeFrogs> gtk is a user interface
[02:59] <bazhang> !gtk
[02:59] <DDR> oo, userdel: user 'guest-ot' does not exist
[03:00] <plytro> DDR what is the userid of guest-ot?
[03:00] <MeanTreeFrogs> user interface libraries is gtj
[03:01] <reisio> well, the base of GNOME's front end
[03:01] <MeanTreeFrogs> *gtk
[03:01] <reisio> and it's 'GTK+' :D
[03:01] <MeanTreeFrogs> its guest-ot
[03:01] <DDR> plytro: Well... there isn't one.
[03:01] <plytro> DDR: if you do a ps aux|grep upstart
[03:01] <plytro> does guest-ot show up?
[03:02] <reisio> mekhami: probably the most important thing GTK+ is, is that it isn't it's primary alternative, Qt :D
[03:02] <DDR> the gues-ot is postfixed with a small random string.
[03:02] <reisio> or even its* :p
[03:02] <histo> DDR: are you using xdm?
[03:02] <genii> Doesn't lightdm have guest login that is created and destroyed on the fly?
[03:02] <MeanTreeFrogs> ya xdm
[03:03] <DDR> ps aux | grep upstart → http://www.pasteall.org/59821
[03:03] <MeanTreeFrogs> have you tried to reboot xdm
[03:03] <reisio> he's tried rebooting the entire OS
[03:03] <plytro> DDR: do ps auxn|grep upstart
[03:04] <MeanTreeFrogs> no but kill xdm and reboot
[03:04] <MeanTreeFrogs> it could be caught in the process tre
[03:04] <reisio> it'd just start the dm again
[03:04] <plytro> sorry forgot the n flag on that the first time, had to look itup
[03:05] <MeanTreeFrogs> ya but then why is it idling
[03:05] <DDR> ps auxn|grep upstart → http://www.pasteall.org/59822
[03:05] <plytro> so uid is 126...
[03:05] <plytro> is there a 126 in /etc/passwd?
[03:06] <mekhami> anyone here use terminator?
[03:06] <DDR> reisio: How do I restart, and to some degree what is, the dm?
[03:06] <plytro> DDR: grep 126 /etc/passwd
[03:06] <reisio> mekhami: not until 2029
[03:06] <bazhang> !info terminator
[03:06] <reisio> DDR: the Display Manager, AKA login manager
[03:07] <MeanTreeFrogs> !info XDM
[03:07] <reisio> DDR: it can be involved with what users are logged in
[03:07] <DDR> Ah. Yes. I was having problems with two different ones popping up occasionally.
[03:07] <reisio> oh really
[03:07] <reisio> _oh /REALLY/_
[03:07]  * reisio samples the plot
[03:07] <reisio> yes, it's thicker
[03:07] <DDR> Yes. It hasn't happened this reboot.
[03:07]  * DDR laughs
[03:07] <mekhami> reisio: you are a character =P
[03:07] <reisio> DDR: ps aux | grep -i dm
[03:08] <reisio> mekhami: I hope I'm ϕ
[03:08] <bazhang> reisio, no need for the rolling editorial
[03:08] <reisio> the most golden of chars
[03:08] <plytro> mekhami: I use tmux not terminator, so I guess my answer is no
[03:08] <DDR> ps aux | grep -i dm → http://www.pasteall.org/59823
[03:08] <MeanTreeFrogs> !info terminator
[03:09] <DDR> ( ps auxn|grep upstart → http://www.pasteall.org/59822 )
[03:09] <MeanTreeFrogs> it really has nothing to do with upstart
[03:10] <plytro> no that was to get the uid of the "other" user
[03:10] <MeanTreeFrogs> zzz
[03:11] <reisio> so sddm
[03:11] <reisio> it does kind of look like you have two DMs running
[03:11] <MeanTreeFrogs> !find
[03:11] <MeanTreeFrogs> !info find
[03:11] <reisio> which could well explain it, why not
[03:11] <MeanTreeFrogs> lol
[03:11] <reisio> DDR: you using ordinary Ubuntu with Unity/GNOME ?
[03:12] <DDR> At the moment, although I had originally installed the kubuntu variant and then installed the gnome packages after kde broke.
[03:12] <reisio> DDR: okay, maybe it's just a little confused
[03:12]  * DDR nods
[03:12] <reisio> DDR: take a look at the suggestions over here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/371742/how-to-restore-ubuntu-login-screen-after-lubuntu-install
[03:13] <FernGullips> i would wait
[03:13] <DDR> Thanks, I'll give that a shot.
[03:13] <OerHeks> FernGullips, how helpfull ..
[03:14] <FernGullips> lol
[03:14] <FernGullips> i try
[03:14] <reisio> DDR: and if that doesn't work, you might find someone's magic reset-from-kubuntu-back-to-ubuntu command
[03:14] <FernGullips> how do u send private messages
[03:14] <FernGullips> in irc
[03:15] <DDR>  /msg <nick>
[03:15] <reisio> like http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/pure-ubuntu-14-10/ etc.
[03:15] <plytro> !info irc
[03:15] <reisio> !info inspircd
[03:16] <mekhami> so I'm using ubuntu and i3 and I need a better terminal than terminator, I think. my main problem is I just can't seem to make it stick to the color theme, it always loads up as blakc on white
[03:16] <hairlessgilliwoo> i need sushi rolls
[03:16] <plytro> mekhami: you could use gnome-terminal with tmux
[03:17] <reisio> hairlessgilliwoo: so true
[03:17] <plytro> or figure out how to save terminator's settings properly
[03:17] <reisio> mekhami: hrmmm
[03:17] <hairlessgilliwoo> !info tmux
[03:17] <reisio> mekhami: I tried evilvte the other week
[03:17] <reisio> was real light and nice
[03:17] <mekhami> plytro: that would be the best option
[03:17] <reisio> mekhami: but with i3... I'd probably just go with urxvt
[03:17] <reisio> AKA rxvt-unicode
[03:17] <plytro> reisio: really?
[03:18] <reisio> nope
[03:18] <reisio> FOOLED YOU AHAHAHAH
[03:18] <reisio> yes really
[03:18] <plytro> the processor matters that much for your terminal app?
[03:18] <plytro> I use gnome-terminal on a core 2 duo without worrying about resources
[03:18] <plytro> and xfce4-terminal
[03:19] <plytro> I know rxvt is super light though
[03:19] <plytro> eclipse/STS are my concerns there
[03:19] <plytro> and jetty :(
[03:20] <mekhami> so many consonants
[03:20] <mekhami> gnome-terminal AND xfce4-terminal?
[03:20] <plytro> mekhami: I have a handful of laptops
[03:20] <plytro> my account uses xfce4
[03:20] <plytro> when the kids are logged in its gnome-terminal
[03:20] <plytro> er whatever comes with unity in 15.04
[03:21] <DDR> reisio: Well. This solves a bunch of my problems.
[03:21] <mekhami> i want to look into xfce4 because that's what the thing i'm basing my system off of uses
[03:21] <plytro> its just terminal in that pretty lookup app
[03:21] <DDR> Thanks so much for the help.
[03:22] <reisio> DDR: yeah, got it working?
[03:22] <DDR> Yeah. I uninstalled the other two login prompts. (lightdm and ssdm)
[03:23] <GullyFernis> Aaaa
[03:23] <OerHeks> !nick | GullyFernis
[03:23] <GullyFernis> i see why
[03:23] <GullyFernis> i havent decided
[03:23] <GullyFernis> :P
[03:23] <reisio> DDR: so... you still have a DM?
[03:23] <DDR> gdm
[03:23] <reisio> ah
[03:23] <reisio> cool :)
[03:24] <reisio> hopefully an update won't bring any back :p
[03:24] <DDR> Required for gnome.
[03:24] <DDR> It /should/ be fine... I've made a note, I know how to solve this problem now.
[03:25] <GullyFernis> anyone use irssi
[03:25] <GullyFernis> ?
[03:25] <GullyFernis> !irssi
[03:25] <bazhang> try #irssi GullyFernis
[03:26] <reisio> DDR: yeah, one DE better than more than one :)
[03:27] <DDR> But if one of something is good, then MANY of something should be better, right?
[03:27]  * DDR jokes
[03:27] <reisio> that only works with certain parts of certain sex's anatomy
[03:28] <reisio> sexes'*...
[03:28] <DDR> heh

[03:28] <reisio> same applies to planets

[03:34] <mekhami> here's a question for you amazing folks. I need to switch my monitors when my computer starts up. I have the command, xrandr --output DVI-I-3 --auto --left-of DVI-I-2 etc. I tried to put this in my .xinitrc file and that didn't work. Where do I put this command so it happens when my system starts?
[03:35] <GullyFernis> lucius
[03:35] <_lucius> I can barely remember it's name but it has to do with stuff like clamav

[03:48] <theJian> pptp service fails to start. I heard this is a bug in ubuntu 14.04 LTS. http://askubuntu.com/questions/547763/ubuntu-server-14-04-1-lts-pptpd-fails-to-start
[03:48] <mekhami> plytro: cmon that's not a fun answer.
[03:48] <plytro> no but its practical and maintainable
[03:48] <mekhami> plytro: i have another similar thing where
[03:48] <mekhami> i need to rebind caps lock to escape
[03:48] <mekhami> for vim reasons
[03:48] <optimal> i like it
[03:48] <Bashing-om> xioax: It is, support for ubuntu.
[03:49] <theJian> Anyone has solution for pptp bug?
[03:50] <mekhami> plytro: what do you think for that?
[03:50] <ubuntzoo> how do i frikin make a bootable usb in ubuntu i tried for the past week with no results
[03:50] <xioax> ok thank you
[03:50] <jluc> what is it related to that i need to provide password twice when booting ?
[03:51] <GullyFernanditto> jluc just turn it off
[03:52] <jluc> i appreciate having that password though
[03:52] <xioax> ubuntzoo download ISO and open up Startup Disk Creator
[03:52] <GullyFernanditto> system settings
[03:52] <jluc> but having to enter it once would be better
[03:52] <jluc> once only
[03:52] <GullyFernanditto> u should
[03:52] <ubuntzoo> i tried using startup disk creator but when i pick the windows iso it doesent put it in the list thiny
[03:53] <GullyFernanditto> is it .iso
[03:53] <xioax> Is it a valid image file
[03:53] <ubuntzoo> yeah
[03:53] <GullyFernanditto> no its not
[03:53] <ubuntzoo> wait how do i make sure it is a valid image file/iso
[03:54] <GullyFernanditto> whats the file name
[03:54] <SchrodingersScat> !md5
[03:54] <ubuntzoo> the file name is windowsblahblahblah.iso
[03:54] <GullyFernanditto> egat
[03:56] <Koyaanis> just md5sum filename
[03:56] <Koyaanis> in console
[03:56] <Koyaanis> :P
[03:57] <Koyaanis> oh we talking windows here. i highly recommend this http://code.kliu.org/hashcheck/downloads/HashCheckInstall-latest.exe

[04:00] <mekhami> here's a question for you amazing folks. I need to switch my monitors when my computer starts up. I have the command, xrandr --output DVI-I-3 --auto --left-of DVI-I-2 etc. I tried to put this in my .xinitrc file and that didn't work. Where do I put this command so it happens when my system starts?
[04:01] <ewtronix> use upstart
[04:02] <_lucius> UFW and routing on google cloud: I have an internal network of <IP_ADDRESS>/16 and I need to route the traffic through the 10.240.0.XYZ and then to the other servers
[04:02] <ewtronix> save the script in a .conf file in /etc/init
[04:02] <ewtronix> mekhami
[04:02] <ewtronix> mekhami: save the script in a .conf file in /etc/init
[04:02] <ewtronix> for root
[04:02] <faiq> ok
[04:02] <_lucius> Currently my ufw has Anywhere  ALLOW from <IP_ADDRESS>/15 and anywhere allow anywhere

[04:29] <grantuman> I have a problem with ubuntu, I cannot boot it up. I have initramfs error or i have ttyl login. My motherboard is a gigabyte ga-970a-d3p. Can someone please answer?
[04:29] <OerHeks> Is this an UEFI or old fashion BIOS, grantuman ?
[04:30] <grantuman> uefi, I cannot turn off secure boot
[04:30] <OerHeks> grantuman, oh, can't help you with that, odd you cannot turn off secure boot
[04:31] <grantuman> there is no option
[04:35] <wileee> grantuman, You've asked the web this with the computer model?
[04:36] <OerHeks> maybe askubuntu.com is a good start
[04:36] <wileee> just confirmed it is all
[04:36] <zzo38> Complain to the computer manufacturer after you have tried everything else if none of it is working.
[04:37] <grantuman> yes i have asked
[04:37] <grantuman> askubuntu and no one has answered wilee
[04:38] <boodllebat> i'm using this functiont to print text to screen but break line does not work , i guess cause it reads first \ then n , here is my function http://paste.ubuntu.com/11935047/
[04:38] <wileee> grantuman, I meant by asking is do the search for if it's there confirming this is locked, besides there, also a great place to search.
[04:38] <OerHeks> some motherboards need an update first. 1. to unlock features, and 2. to determin when your guarantee starts
[04:38] <grantuman> I get a usb/device/descriptor 64 error
[04:39] <grantuman> oh
[04:39] <histo> grantuman: has this machine ever booted?
[04:39] <OerHeks> with this unlock you obtain the license.
[04:39] <cfhowlett> grantuman, update your bios if possible.
[04:39] <grantuman> i need to use windows for that right?
[04:39] <OerHeks> grantuman, not always, check the bios if it can update live or from usb
[04:39] <grantuman> i got an error when i updated it
[04:39] <wileee> grantuman, some are bootable
[04:39] <cfhowlett> that ... not a good sign
[04:39] <grantuman> i can use qflash right?
[04:41] <wileee> I would go as far as the OEM's crack IT, heh
[04:44] <histo> grantuman: Has this machine ever booted successfully?
[04:44] <OerHeks> histo, i see 2 posts that give other issues than booting

[04:46] <grantuman> histo: umm, i dont know
[04:46] <zzo38> Does any of you know answer of my questions?
[04:46] <histo> grantuman: Well what were you doing last on the system?
[04:46] <grantuman> i couldnt use ubuntu on my ststem after i upgraded
[04:46] <histo> grantuman: boot to the install cd/usb and then we can work on fixing it
[04:47] <histo> grantuman: or try booting an older kernel
[04:47] <histo> grantuman: secure boot is not the issue
[04:47] <grantuman> hmm
[04:47] <grantuman> how do i boot an older kernel?
[04:47] <grantuman> like would i boot kubuntu 14.04?
[04:47] <grantuman> instead of 15?
[04:48] <OerHeks> hold shift @ boot to enter grubmenu
[04:50] <histo> secureboot has been supported since 12.04
[04:59] <xioax_> sounds good
[05:27] <zzo38> Actually I figured out the way to allow t_Co to be override, it is by also overriding t_RV to a blank string then it won't automatically override t_Co too.

[05:48] <zzo38> I tried some stuff mentioned in Debian mailing list about the bell not working, but it doesn't fix it. I have version 297
[05:48] <zzo38> (The computer didn't come with this version; I installed it so that I can get Sixel graphics support)
[05:50] <zzo38> The "xkbbell" command works and visual bell also works if enabled
[05:51] <zzo38> I tried overriding volume levels too and so on, those also don't work
[05:51] <zzo38> In version 271 the bell works
[05:52] <OerHeks> I would file a bugreport in your case, zzo38
[05:53] <zzo38> But I want to know what is wrong so that I can fix it
[06:01] <histo> zzo38: is pcspkr blacklisted?
[06:17] <Guest85924> Who is here?
[06:17] <ObrienDave> nobody ;p

[06:25] <Matt_teni> Anyone know a way to check if my computer is venerable to recent 0day exploit release of Flash? I dont have Adoble Flash plugin installed but the pepperflash one
[06:25] <Guest85924> I do not know how to chating here
[06:26] <OerHeks> Guest85924 you are doing fine, sofar. do you have a support question?
[06:26] <TJ-> Matt_teni: check with the pepperflash project first, they'll be the experts on such things
[06:26] <histo> Guest85924: huh?
[06:26] <OerHeks> Matt_teni, if you are up2date, i guess not
[06:29] <Guest85924> i want to know what i can do here.please?
[06:29] <histo> Guest85924: you can ask for help with ubuntu here
[06:29] <Guest85924> ok
[06:29] <Guest85924> thanks
[06:30] <Guest85924> i should sign up first!!!   google...
[06:30] <histo> Guest85924: You're here already no need to sign up
[06:31] <Guest85924> What? it is ok?
[06:33] <Guest85924> im sory for my pool english
[06:34] <Matt_teni> TJ-, i did check pepperflash plugin page on debian, it was last updated in december 2014 https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/pepperflashplugin-nonfree.html
[06:36] <histo> Guest85924: what is your question?
[06:37] <TJ-> Matt_teni: As I understand it PF is an integrated part of Google Chrome, and is published under a non-free licence by Google, so checking with the Google Chrome project would be best, since updates to Chrome possibly include updates to PF. If that project publishes security advisories they may list specific issues against PF, or not
[06:41] <Matt_teni> TJ-, thanks. will look into it
[06:51] <gnomed> Hi. I am facing an error while running a program in wine. Can I ask that question here or not?
[06:52] <ObrienDave> any wine issues direct to #winehq
[06:52] <fury__> why is the default swappiness 60 in ubuntu? since I learned about it and switched it to 5 my laptop is actually enjoyable
[06:52] <gnomed> ok
[06:52] <OerHeks> fury__, it is a choise made not only for your machine.
[06:52] <ObrienDave> fury__, how much RAM do you have?
[06:52] <fury__> 4gb
[06:53] <ObrienDave> probably not necessary to have any swap
[06:53] <OerHeks> sleep/hybernate wants swap, anyway.
[06:54] <ObrienDave> this is true
[06:54] <fury__> obviously it is not for my machine, but I can't think of any case when that 60 value is usefull
[06:55] <fury__> what happens if I have 512mb an a value of 10 in swappiness? will I face a sudden drop in performance? and that 60 is there to balance this drop so I have worse loading times overall but no sudden drop?
[06:57] <OerHeks> fury__, test it ?
[06:58] <Guest85924> the python's model scapy can't use the apt-get to install in ubuntu
[06:59] <Guest85924> what can i do?
[06:59] <fury__> yeah, i could, although I would have to run some VMs to fill these 4gb but I feel too lazy now
[06:59] <TJ-> fury__: vm.swappiness controls the weighting between evicting pages from the file-cache or the anonymous-pages cache. 60 is safe default middle-ground
[07:01] <OerHeks> !info python-scapy
[07:02] <OerHeks> It should be there, what ubunt version, Guest85924 ?
[07:02] <OerHeks> 14.10 died yesterday :-D
[07:03] <Guest85924> ubuntu 14.5?
[07:03] <Guest85924> let me see
[07:04] <Abhijit> Hi
[07:04] <Abhijit> where does 14.04 LTS logs error when sudo start test fails where test is a job in /etc/init/test
[07:06] <Guest85924> but i change the place that is err ,success....
[07:06] <Guest85924> is the code 's mistake...
[07:06] <Guest85924> 3q
[07:06] <Guest85924> thanks
[07:06] <OerHeks> Abhijit, auth.log if inlog fails, dmesg log if something else goes wrong, not sure your test writes a log anywhere
[07:09] <TJ-> Abhijit: If it's an Upstart config, then maybe "/var/log/upstart/" will contain a service start log
[07:10] <Abhijit> OerHeks, TJ- yes its in a /var/log/upstart/test.log automatically
[07:11] <OerHeks> nice
[07:13] <RudyValencia> I have a PC with an AMD FX-8320 CPU and I tried to run Ubuntu Mint 14.04 on it, but it overheated and shut itself down, why was that happening?
[07:14] <OerHeks> RudyValencia, good question, mint has its own issues.
[07:14] <OerHeks> !mint
[07:14] <RudyValencia> Oops
[07:14] <RudyValencia> I meant Ubuntu MATE
[07:14] <RudyValencia> sorry
[07:14] <ObrienDave> RudyValencia, there is an #ubuntu-mate channel :)
[07:14] <Abhijit> :-D
[07:14] <RudyValencia> thanks
[07:15] <OerHeks> did you check lmsensors ? and restricted drivers ?
[07:15] <OerHeks> !lmsensors
[07:16] <RudyValencia> I can't recall if it happened before or after installing the nVidia driver.
[07:16] <RudyValencia> I am not using it at the moment, because I'm back on Windows.
[07:19] <histo> RudyValencia: what were you doing when it overheated?
[07:19] <RudyValencia> I was just using it as normal
[07:19] <RudyValencia> also I was trying to set up Windows in VMware
[07:19] <RudyValencia> before it shut off the screen went black a couple times
[07:23] <fury__> RudyValencia: I have only used it on a laptop but you could install tlp
[07:23] <fury__> is very smart and efficient
[07:23] <RudyValencia> OK
[07:23] <histo> RudyValencia: is this a laptop or a desktop machine?
[07:23] <RudyValencia> desktop
[07:24] <histo> RudyValencia: make sure all your fans are clean. You were probably hammering the cpu setting up the VM
[07:24] <RudyValencia> it has a Corsair liquid-cooled radiator attached
[07:24] <RudyValencia> under Windows at idle I get ~29 deg. C
[07:24] <fury__> RudyValencia: lol it is almost definitely a driver issue
[07:24] <RudyValencia> eww
[07:24] <histo> fury__: why do you think that?
[07:25] <histo> RudyValencia: check it under linux at idle
[07:25] <RudyValencia> sounds like a plan
[07:25] <histo> setting up a VM is not idle
[07:26] <fury__> setting up some VMs should not cause such a behaviour
[07:26] <fury__> RudyValencia: You should also try to set up VM in windows
[07:26] <histo> fury__: it will peg the cpu to 100%
[07:27]  * histo thinks cooling problem
[07:27] <RudyValencia> I can run VMs in windows without the box going down
[07:28] <RudyValencia> does it matter that I installed the driver using the nVidia-supplied .run package instead of the nvidia-current package in the repo?
[07:29] <histo> RudyValencia: Why do you suspect video to it down?
[07:29] <histo> RudyValencia: Your bios doesn't monitor the video cards temperature. Just the cpuss
[07:30] <RudyValencia> I've checked my setup, it stays cool on Windows
[07:31] <fury__> so you think it is not the CPU but the GPU? That is a lot more plausible
[07:31] <RudyValencia> it has to be something
[07:31] <RudyValencia> under nouveau I wasn't having problems
[07:31] <RudyValencia> but nouveau doesn't do acceleration
[07:32] <RudyValencia> it was when the nvidia driver was installed that it started acting up
[07:32] <RudyValencia> I couldn't get the repo-supplied one to install
[07:33] <fury__> I have a GTX650 on my desktop and it worked like a charm with drivers from nvidia
[07:34] <fury__> on the laptop however, where I have some AMD thing I lost 3 days makign it work properly, I was overheating too
[07:34] <fury__> it*
[07:34] <RudyValencia> it was a GTX 550 Ti
[07:35] <naftilos76> Hi, can anybody suggest an editor with inegrated terminal targetting rails development for ubuntu?
[07:37] <fury__> I do not have access to my desktop right now and I didn't use it in months so I cant tell what driver I have installed there but keep looking and try different drivers it will definitely work
[07:37] <Abhijit> naftilos76, try geany?
[07:38] <naftilos76> Abhijit, thanks i ll try it
[07:52]  * tiru says HI
[07:54] <Abhijit> hello

[08:36] <reconx2> Hi all, i have big problem with huawei e173 modem on my ubuntu 15.04
[08:36] <reconx2> Can someone may help me ?
[08:39] <reconx2> I use script to run device. The script is: usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1446 -M<PHONE_NUMBER>0000000000000000000011060000000000000000000000000000 -V 0x12d1 -P 0x1436 -s 50 -m 0x0usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1446 -M 5553424
[08:40] <reconx2> But without it the modem can't start after restart.
[08:40] <reconx2> Anyone ?
[08:40] <histo> reconx2: without what?
[08:41] <reconx2> Without running this script
[08:41] <histo> reconx2: so you want to run a script after restart?
[08:42] <histo> reconx2: in your crontab you can put @reboot /path/to/script
[08:43] <reconx2> Well, i want to run it after a device is plug-in. But i thnik it can solved the problem. When i run script device work to next restart. Heh, sometime the best solutions are so simple heh, thank :)
[08:44] <histo> reconx2: perhaps something with udev can be configured to run on insert
[08:46] <histo> reconx2: yeah you could write a udev rule for the device
[08:46] <huannv> hi
[08:46] <reconx2> thanks histo. Yes but it's marekd as bug on lunchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1441285, and the way you write me is simple and should work
[08:47] <histo> reconx2: k
[08:49] <histo> reconx2: you should post your command you ran to the bug report, so others know how to fix it
[08:49] <reconx2> well with udev it can be the way
[08:49] <reconx2> i try it
[08:51] <reconx2> it's posted in bug description
[08:51] <reconx2> I download it from ther
[08:53] <thuginc614> i  have a ?  cant  any one point me in the right  place i want to make a custom splash screen
[08:53] <thuginc614> can
[08:56] <histo> thuginc614: what are you using as your boot manager?
[08:56] <Matsy> Hey all. Does anyone know of a way to configure file system quotas (via quota) via some kind of include? Or where the individual user quota configuration files are stashed? I can't find them anywhere
[08:57] <Matsy> Oh, apparently it is 'aquota.user' at the filesystem root
[08:58] <thuginc614>  i  dont have one yet
[08:59] <thuginc614>  working on geting one  i wont to make a costom   boot splace  i wont a skull   there
[08:59] <histo> thuginc614: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Displays for grub2
[08:59] <thuginc614> thanks
[09:00] <sgo11> hi, where does nautilus or pcmanfm store passwords? I am unable to clear those saved passwords unless I reboot my system. I don't want to reboot the system now. I used smb:// and choose remember the passwords until logout. I don't have seahorse by default, I did install it, nothing in the seahorse. thanks.
[09:00] <randome112> hey..im currently running 15.04, a driver update for my nvidia graphics card was released a month ago..i downloaded the driver..it's in '.run' format...how do i install it?
[09:00] <thuginc614> ?  is there virus scanner for  ubuntu ?
[09:01] <histo> !av | thuginc614
[09:01] <sgo11> randome112, maybe "chmod +x file.run" and then simply run it.
[09:01] <thuginc614> kk
[09:01] <randome112> @sgo11:will try it
[09:01] <histo> randome112: sudo sh /path/to/file.run
[09:03] <Matsy> Or just sudo ./path/to/file.run since they always have a hashbang
[09:03] <histo> ahh they do cool
[09:03] <Matsy> And don't have to be a shell script 100% of the time (sometimes embedded python scripts)
[09:03] <randome112> @sgo11:chmod didnt seem to work..@histo : looks like its working
[09:03] <Matsy> Or perl
[09:04] <sgo11> randome112, that's weird. chmod should work. whatever.
[09:04] <sgo11> chmod should work if sh in the front of the file works. anyway.
[09:10] <randome112_> hey..i tried installing it..said something like X server is running, diable X server
[09:10] <EriC^^> randome112_: type sudo service lightdm stop, it'll take you to tty1, login and install from there
[09:11] <randome112_> @EriC^^ :  will do
[09:12] <ryilefer> @EriC^^ : stuck there..can't type anything.. Randome here btw..using my phone
[09:13] <fury__> ryilefer: press ctrl+alt+F7 what happens?
[09:14] <randome> Lost connection for a sec..
[09:16] <histo> randome: you can't type in tty1?
[09:17] <randome> histo: it says 'Starting acpi event daemon...' And stuck there
[09:20] <linuxr> hi all. I try to burn a cd from a .cue file with "brasero". However, it fails just at the beginning, in the log I can see this: "BraseroWodim stderr: Unsupported filetype 'MP3' "
[09:20] <linuxr> I already installed " gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 " and " gstreamer1.0-fluendo-mp3 " from restricted extras, no success still :( any ideas?
[09:21] <neurot> bin and cue
[09:23] <neurot> linuxr http://www.ehow.com/how_7159004_burn-bin-file-brasero.html
[09:24] <linuxr> I dont have a bin file neurot , its a MP3 file
[09:24] <linuxr> this used to work
[09:24] <erhanahmet> Hi, I have a laptop pre-installed Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS and it is working fine. I am missing some drivers for 14.04 LTS so my question is here: can I continue to use 12.04 LTS after the 5-year-support time ends? How may it effect my personal/home use?
[09:24] <linuxr> I suspect its just some library missing, don't know which one though
[09:25] <OerHeks> linuxr, you will need lame codecs to record mp3
[09:26] <linuxr> OerHeks, I'm not recording mp. Its rather decoding mp3 for burning to cd
[09:31] <neurot> linuxr so your wanting to make a cd to play in a cdplayer out of some mp3
[09:32] <linuxr> precisely, neurot
[09:33] <linuxr> thats what the .cue file is for...its read by the burning software and splits up the mp3 into individual tracks
[09:33] <Miar> Hi all. I needed a little help.
[09:33] <Miar> I have KDE,Gnome and Unity installed , but KDE crashes after around 2 mins of usage.
[09:33] <Miar> Rest are fine.
[09:33] <Miar> Any reason why this might be happening?
[09:33] <neurot> I dont run brasero but I have good luck with k3d for that
[09:34] <linuxr> neurot, I'd like to avoid k3b as this would pull in almost entire KDE libs...I don't use KDE
[09:34] <linuxuz3r> xD
[09:35] <OerHeks> I prefer k3b over brassero or whatever is available.
[09:35] <OerHeks> That might be your issue, brassero cannot handle .cue files correctly
[09:36] <linuxr> OerHeks, but it used to work :/
[09:38] <sisko> I am using ubuntu 14.04. Is it "safe" and "nonproblematic" to upgrade to the new kernel 4.1? how would I do that the easiest and best way?
[09:38] <fury__> linuxr: then you could try to reinstall it
[09:38] <linuxuz3r> win10 coming out soon
[09:38] <linuxuz3r> w00t
[09:38] <OerHeks> Miar, what happens when kde crashes? did you check the logs?
[09:38] <linuxr> but you might be right, maybe the error is misleading...burning single mp3 files works, just not from cue files...where I get the "unsupported type mp3" error
[09:39] <neurot> sisko Is something not working

[09:53] <kaseoga_> OerHeks: i install boot-repair from live usb
[09:53] <kaseoga_> but it tells me something like LEGACY / EFI
[09:54] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:54] <EriC^^> after booting a live usb

[09:58] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
[09:59] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: actually hold on
[09:59] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: ubuntu is installed in legacy mode, and windows is in efi mode
[09:59] <EriC^^> you should reinstall ubuntu in uefi mode
[09:59] <sad_> Hallo !
[09:59] <lotuspsychje> !nl | sad_
[09:59] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi
[10:00] <kaseoga_> no such file
[10:00] <lotuspsychje> kaseoga_: and dont forget setting bios from IDE to AHCI for ssd
[10:00] <EriC^^> kaseoga_: ok, you're booted in legacy mode right now, you need to boot the usb in uefi mode, from a boot options menu or so choosing usb uefi, then run that command to see if a file exists so you know it worked, and reinstall ubuntu
[10:00] <sad_> Can some one help me with Redshift , please ?
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> kaseoga_: what kind of samsung ssd is this?
[10:01] <kaseoga_> samsung 850 evo
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> ask your real question, sad_
[10:02] <sad_> I cant install and use redshift in my LXLE 14.04.1 .
[10:02] <sad_> I install but it dosnt works
[10:02] <lotuspsychje> !info redshift | sad_ sudo apt-get install redshift
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> sad_: did you check the man page how it works?
[10:03] <kaseoga_> lotuspsychje: didn-t undestand that config to change IDE to AHCI
[10:03] <kaseoga_> im a noob
[10:03] <sad_> no how should i do that ?
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> kaseoga_: if you plug a samsung ssd into your pc, bios has te be changed from IDE to AHCI
[10:03] <kaseoga_> ok
[10:03] <kaseoga_> let-s restart and se xD
[10:03] <kaseoga_> how to do all that things
[10:04] <lotuspsychje> sad_: man redshift
[10:04] <lotuspsychje> sad_: (from terminal)
[10:04] <sad_> i am going to try it
[10:05] <sad_> and the answer is : it is no page about redshift
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> sad_: maybe this can help: http://linux.die.net/man/1/redshift

[10:14] <EriC^^> ok, you want it to be a standalone install right?
[10:14] <sisko> neurot: its because I want to try the new feature of ext4 encryption

[10:33] <Spunky> Hi all.
[10:43] <momomo> I want to install only security updates, and I want to do it manually each time.   "The system is running in low-graphics mode"
[11:15] <randome> Running 15.04
[11:15] <randome> Nvidia graphics card
[11:18] <pavi_> can i change my custom distro from 32 bit to 64 bit? if any method is there please tell me?
[11:19] <bazhang> pavi_, full reinstall is it
[11:20] <pavi_> bazhang_, i can't get u
[11:20] <bazhang> pavi_, there is no other way than to fully reinstall a new OS
[11:21] <bazhang> pavi_, you cannot change the 32bit to 64 bit any other way
[11:22] <pavi_> bazhang_,  so what is solution whether i build from 64 bit agian?
[11:22] <momomo> randome, never upgrade ubuntu
[11:22] <randome> momomo: lesson learnt
[11:23] <Matsy> momomo: I'll just keep on upgrading, and do it right
[11:23] <Matsy> Upgrading grub is one of the easiest upgrade paths
[11:23] <bazhang> !behelpful | momomo
[11:24] <pavi_> bazhang_,  so what is solution whether i build from 64 bit again?
[11:24] <avis> you have to use 15.04 to get full selinux security support.
[11:25] <svetlana> that nvidia was reported quite a few times

[11:36] <Nokaji> Hi, I've installed a new blu ray player. It identifies disc properly but so far nothing will play it. I've installed extras and the expected libdvdread, libdvdnav & libdvdcss
[11:36] <Nokaji> tried VLC & smartplayer (not familiar with smartplayer so maybe didn't try it)
[11:40] <bazhang> !info smplayer
[11:40] <bazhang> thats had bluray support for a very long time
[11:41] <Nokaji> okay, thanks.  thought just occurred...
[11:41] <Nokaji> I need to set region to region2
[11:41] <pi-> My $PATH is /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games -- what is up with the two games entries?  This is a remote / cloud instance that I ssh into. I can't imagine playing any games on it.
[11:41] <pi-> I'm trying to figure out where it gets set, but I can't work it out
[11:41] <pi-> Short of text searching over my entire RemoteFS
[11:42] <Massi__> join /debian
[11:42] <bazhang> try /join
[11:43] <randome> Any suggestions??
[11:43] <randome> Any help is appreciated
[11:43] <bazhang> randome, yes
[11:43] <bazhang> randome, you are in low graphics mode, install the drivers then reboot
[11:44] <randome> bazhang : I tried that..did apt get install nvidia current
[11:44] <bazhang> randome, not from the website
[11:44] <bazhang> what card randome
[11:45] <randome> bazhang: nvidia gforce gt 720m
[11:45] <bazhang> randome, any errors during the install
[11:46] <randome> bazhang: not really..I'm trying it again.. Should be done in a minute
[11:46] <Nokaji> Oay, I'd better check before i commit myself here -I'm using 'setregion', it says "Enter the new region number for your drive [1..8]:2" which I set (2), it then asks me "New mask: 0xFFFFFFFD, correct? [y/n]:" - How the heck should i know if that is correct? - thanks
[11:47] <bazhang> Nokaji, thats not really something ub untu support would know
[11:47] <bazhang> Nokaji, perhaps the ##hardware channel
[11:48] <randome> bazhang: install completed.. Shall I reboot now?
[11:48] <bazhang> randome, no errors installing?
[11:48] <Nokaji> bazhang: Would nobody know the normal response from "sudo regionset /dev/sr0" ? - guess I can try google
[11:48] <randome> bazhang: nope..
[11:49] <bazhang> randome, then reboot yes
[11:49] <randome> bazhang: says DKMS: install completed
[11:50] <randome> bazhang: rebooted... Same problem agaib
[11:50] <DDR> Hi all. Ubuntu in gnome-classic mode keeps doing this thing where I'm going along, going along, and then my screen turns black, a few seconds pass, and I am back at the login screen with my session apparently killed.
[11:51] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[11:51] <DDR> It happens a few times a day, apparently at random. Last time, a file I had open was corrupted.
[11:51] <DDR> Has anyone experienced anything similar? I'm at a complete loss how to debug it. :(
[11:52] <tomtomtom> Hi, I'm running a NAS on ubuntu with a 4hdd raid5. Last week I was running apt upgrade and got a read failed message on one of the disks thats part of the raid. I checked mdadm and it said that this disk failed, the hdd indication light of the case was disabled, too. I've now checked the drives with seatools on windows (SMART and short selftest), and they all passed.
[11:52] <tomtomtom> I'm wondering if that has something to do with grub, bc it happend right after grub configuration
[11:53] <Nokaji> bazhang: FYI, I looked at a typical example run of regionset, region 1 corresponded to 0xFFFFFFFE, this gave me enough confidence to assume whatever region value is set, is deducted from the number FFFF (Hexadecimal), I did a re- setregion and it confirms I now have region2 set -  now to try my blu ray disc ...
[11:54] <tomtomtom> Is it possible to run a live ubuntu and mount the raid read only to check if it's really the hdd?
[11:56] <DDR> Oh, something about kdeinit5 crashing with SIGSEGV.
[11:59] <Nokaji> okay, back to my old question - anyone any idea why my 'blu ray player' "doesn't"?
[11:59] <DDR> no codecs?
[11:59] <DDR> Or bad codecs?
[12:00] <DDR> (iirc, you might need the non-free ones?)
[12:00] <Nokaji> I've checked the codecs over in here last week when i had a faulty player
[12:00] <naftilos76> Hi, i installed gnome flashback in order to be able to access gnome classic. However i cannot edit the taskbars and i do not remember how it was done last time i did it. Can anybody help? Alt+right click does not work.
[12:00] <Nokaji> all the extras installed, etc
[12:00] <DDR> Hm, got me then. :/
[12:01] <Nokaji> DDR: What i did manage to do was re-encode the blu ray disc using 'handbrake', i got a mkv file - playable but with some artefacts (5% approx)
[12:01] <Nokaji> and that was without even setting the region
[12:02] <DDR> Say, have you tried playing it in VLC?
[12:03] <DDR> That's the only other thing I got.
[12:04] <Nokaji> vlc and smartplayer, yup
[12:04] <Nokaji> haerd spme say they had to regress to V1 VLC
[12:04] <DDR> You've been nothing if not thorough. :(
[12:05] <Nokaji> I could try a reboot, I could boot to windows but then not sure I have a proggie to do blu ray, vlc still perhaps
[12:08] <DDR> Uh, does http://plasma-mobile.org/ kill gnome classic for anyone else?
[12:08] <DDR> Every time I try to look at it in Firefox, my desktop session dies an inglorious death.
[12:09] <mobile3> I have 4 IP in VPS what is the use of it ?
[12:11] <DDR> I'm going to add this to my list of things I don't understand about linux, along with xmonad and just how the c linker really works.
[12:11] <randome> Can someone please help me??
[12:11] <mobile3> From all 4 different IP, I am getting different things.
[12:13] <mobile3> I should see same website but It is showing different things on different IP... why ?
[12:18] <DDR> randome: Be healed, my son. *blesses* … Well, that ought to take care of it. :)
[12:18] <randome> DDR; nope.. Didn't work
[12:19] <DDR> I don't know the command to link the 'how to ask a question on irc' guide, here.
[12:19] <DDR> !irc
[12:19] <DDR> Nope.
[12:20] <DDR> Uh, this is okay... http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/
[12:20] <randome> DDR: dude,I've asked the question thrice already.. Didn't want to be rude and ask it again and again..
[12:20] <DDR> Ah, I don't have it on backlog.
[12:20] <DDR> because my DESKTOP SESSION KEEPS CRASHING.
[12:21] <DDR> In general, IRC has a memory of about five lines of text.
[12:21] <DDR> Anyway, what's wrong?
[12:22] <randome> DDR: well then, here goes..for the fourth time and just for you.. I tried to update my nvidia driver from website..  I got an error saying low- graphics mode
[12:22] <DDR> I've done something like that before. :(
[12:23] <DDR> Are you able to downgrade the driver?
[12:23] <randome> DDR: tired apt-get install nvidia current
[12:23] <DDR> Maybe if you remove the driver entirely, then try apt-get install?
[12:24] <randome> DDR: how do I do that??..
[12:24] <DDR> That is a very good question.
[12:24] <DDR> Uh, do you have a graphical shell atm?
[12:24] <DDR> eg, gnome.
[12:25] <randome> DDR: I just have the terminal open
[12:25] <DDR> I've been there, too. :(
[12:27] <DDR> The best advice I can give you is to google how to search installed packages, see what the likely candidate package is, and google how to uninstall that.
[12:27] <DDR> Or wait until someone competent comes on.
[12:27] <ioria> randome did you install with sudo ~/installation_file.run   ?
[12:28] <mobile3> Can anyone help me ??
[12:28] <DDR> (It's 5:30 AM PST atm, I think the chat room usually is a bit more active 6 to 18 hours from now.)
[12:28] <randome> ioria: sudo sh
[12:29] <ioria> randome      a .run file, i mean ?
[12:30] <randome> ioria: yeah..sudo sh installation_file.run
[12:30] <ioria> randome      if so you should have the --uninstall   flag
[12:30] <ioria> randome      the same command but with  --uninstall    at the end
[12:31] <ioria> randome      open a console, stop lighdm , unistall it, purge nvidia* and reboot
[12:31] <randome> ioria: sudo sh installation_file.run --uninstall ???
[12:32] <ioria> randome     condieer that i don't know your configuration so the only advice that i can give you is to remove/purge all the nvidia package you have
[12:32] <ioria> *consider
[12:32] <ioria> randome    if you run ubuntu-drivers list ?
[12:33] <DDR> randome: Yes, I believe so.
[12:33] <fury__> randome: try sudo apt-get remove nvidia- then press tab, does it autocomplete something?
[12:33] <randome> fury__ : not auto completing
[12:34] <randome> Ok..so I got 3
[12:34] <fury__> then try sudo apt-get install nevidia-346
[12:34] <ioria> randome    in any case you should work in pure text env ... so ctrl-altF2
[12:34] <fury__> from autocomplete? good
[12:34] <ioria> randome     ctrl-alt-F2
[12:35] <randome> Nvidia-304, Nvidia-current ,nvidia-opencl-icd-304 and nvidia-settings
[12:35] <fury__> great, unistall first two
[12:35] <fury__> sudo apt-get remove <name>
[12:35] <randome> ioria: I am running in pure text environment
[12:36] <ioria> randome    ok ... sudo service lightdm stop
[12:36] <randome> fury__ :on it
[12:36] <LicencedUser> For CPU usage, should I go with Iceweasel or Epiphany browser?
[12:36] <fury__> after you uninstall: sudo apt-get install nvidia-346
[12:36] <LicencedUser> I'm rendering a site like this: http://dashingdemo.herokuapp.com/sample 24/7
[12:36] <randome> fury_ : uninstall the first 2 right??
[12:37] <fury__> yes
[12:37] <LicencedUser> on a raspberry pi with Ubuntu
[12:37] <randome> fury__: done with first..removing 2nd now
[12:38] <randome> fury_,: done..installing nvidia 346
[12:38] <fury__> now try restarting
[12:39] <randome> fury__: cool..download is so slow..
[12:40] <fury__> randome: btw, what version of ubuntu do you use?
[12:41] <randome> fury__: 15.04
[12:42] <fury__> randome: ok, let me know if it works after you restart
[12:43] <randome> fury__: OK done with installation..rebooting now
[12:46] <randome> fury__: yeah..blank screen after the Ubuntu logo...
[12:47] <randome> fury__: did crtl alt f2
[12:47] <fury__> ok then lets try use the recomended driver fo you GPU
[12:47] <fury__> sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
[12:48] <fury__> remove the driver you just installed nevidia-346
[12:48] <fury__> sudo apt-get update
[12:49] <fury__> also remove nvidia-setting
[12:49] <fury__> then sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings
[12:49] <randome> fury__: added the repo..removing 346 now
[12:51] <randome> fury_: removed settings.. I did the tab thingy again..there's nvidia-opencl-ivd-346 and nvidia-prime..do I let them stay or remove them too??
[12:52] <randome> fury__ *
[12:52] <fury__> one sec I dont know that prime is
[12:53] <fury__> are you using a laptop?
[12:54] <Matsy> fury__: If he has nvidia prima, then probably yes
[12:54] <randome> fury__: yea
[12:54] <Matsy> *prime
[12:55] <fury__> ok..it should not matter...I think
[12:55] <fury__> sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings
[12:55] <randome> fury__: on it
[12:57] <randome> fury__: done ..reboot?
[12:57] <fury__> randome: yes
[12:58] <kernix> hey all
[12:58] <randome> fury__: low- graphics mode
[12:59] <fury__> ok I asorry then but I do not know what your problem is, it might be that nvidia-prime driver, there is no harm if you uninstall it and then try to install it again now that oyu have that repository I gave you
[12:59] <fury__> check this link which seems to describe your problem
[12:59] <fury__> http://vxlabs.com/2015/02/05/solving-the-ubuntu-14-04-nvidia-346-nvidia-prime-black-screen-issue/
[13:00] <fury__> sorry for not being able to help you more
[13:00] <randome> fury_ : thanks a lot buddy.. Will take a break and try again..
[13:04] <randome> fury__: OK..so I uninstalled everything related to nvidia.. Rebooted.. Got the login screen..
[13:06] <randome> fury__: its running in x.org server nouveau..will take back up of all files and try installing nvidia later
[13:06] <fury__> randome: ok, good luck :)
[13:13] <Fohlen> is there any way to install mysql-client "only". When I install mysql-client it bind's to the local socket, which means I need a local mysql-server running permitting user's connects to outgoing hosts
[13:13] <Fohlen> anyhow this seems a distribution-specific problem I've also ran into debian, but it works on cent

[13:21] <yarekt_> Hi. Can someone help me make a bootable USB stick from ubuntu without GUI please?
[13:21] <yarekt_> Or alternatively from OSX
[13:21] <EriC^^> yarekt_: sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync
[13:22] <SCHAAP137> yarekt_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#mkusb_-_dd_image_of_iso_file_to_USB_device_safely
[13:22] <EriC^^> yarekt_: type sudo parted -l first to get the name of your usb
[13:22] <yarekt_> EriC^^: Last few times i tried that didn't work..
[13:22] <EriC^^> yarekt_: did you use /dev/sdX or /dev/sdxY ?
[13:23] <yarekt_> I dds the iso right onto the block device, /dev/sdh
[13:23] <yarekt_> But let me try it again, just to be absolutely sure
[13:23] <EriC^^> did you checksum the .iso?
[13:24] <EriC^^> maybe you need to set the bios to boot it?
[13:29] <yarekt_> ok, dding onto the stick, might take a while
[13:30] <yarekt_> I don't know how I didn't see that section in the wiki, I must have not scrolled far enough =/
[13:30] <yarekt_> SCHAAP137: ^^
[13:35] <drdozer> hi - I'm not getting audio through my TV down an HDMI cable
[13:36] <drdozer> in the kde mixer, there is a playback device for HDMI and the volume is set to 100%
[13:38] <Fuchs> drdozer: you then also have to move audio streams to that output device, unless it is set as the default
[13:38] <Fuchs> as much as I love KDE, you probably get better results by firing up pavucontrol for that
[13:38] <yarekt_> EriC^^, SCHAAP137, Amazing, booted straight away. Thanks for your help!
[13:38] <Fuchs> (you can, however, right click any stream in kmix and redirect it to HDMI, if that helps you testing)
[13:38] <yorwos> drdozer in configuration in audio settings maybe try to only let hdmi audio on and turn others off , i did the exact opposite thing for my external sound card to work , had to turn hdmi audio off
[13:38] <EriC^^> yarekt_: great, no problem :)
[13:40] <drdozer> yorwos, in the audio video settings, the non-hdmi is listed first in the preferences lists
[13:40] <drdozer> so if I move hdmi up to the top of those lists, it may work?
[13:43] <yorwos> theres no moving in xfce here , just dropdown menu which i chose deactivated
[13:43] <yorwos> try moving to top and if that doesnt work deactivate and reactivate after ur movie
[13:44] <yorwos> im seeing this in audio settings/mixer from the notification menu in menu bar
[13:45] <drdozer> I've set HDMI as the default channel
[13:48] <drdozer> I've used the kmixer thing to tell it to send dragonplayer to hdmi
[13:48] <drdozer> but still no sound
[13:50] <drdozer> ok, I've fired up pavucontrol and it thinks that dragonplayer is being routed through hdmi
[13:50] <drdozer> and it's showing me volumes going up and down
[13:51] <drdozer> ok, when I go to the output devices tab, it says port: hdmi/displayport(unplugged)
[13:53] <drdozer> ah, it was trying ot talk hdmi rather than hdmi2 :D I have sound now
[13:54] <yorwos> nice u fixed it :) enjoy ur movie hehe
[13:54] <drdozer> lols, it's my daughter - she wants to watch frozen *again*
[13:59] <SuperFAM> Can you use the Appearance > Behavior setting 'Enable workspaces' without the Workspace Switcher application on the dock?

[14:07] <Lucius> anyone use google cloud compute engine?
[14:07] <Lucius> I need to understand something about network infrastructure that's absent in my mind
[14:07] <Lucius> routing is directed towards Wide area networks right?
[14:07] <Lucius> and iptables / ufw is directed bidirectionally right?
[14:07] <Lucius> routing = out only and iptables / ufw = in<->out right?

[14:24] <Nokaji> Hi, anyone know how to get a blu ray player working? - I've installed unbuntu extras, also the three drivers libdvdread, libdvdnav & libdvdcss and set region. Nautilus can see the files/names. I've tried VLC & smartplayer. So far it only plays DVDs plus I can re-encode a blu ray disc to mkv (with 5% artefacts prior to setting region code).
[14:27] <Lucius> pc specs would be necessary Nokaji, right?
[14:27] <Lucius> it's probably proprietary

[14:34] <marianne> Hello... running 14.04 ...  They have little locks in the corner and even logged in as root, I can't delete them...help, they are annoying
[14:36] <dust> SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
[14:36] <dust> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
[14:36] <ioria> marianne can you read them in terminal   ls -al   ?
[14:37] <dust> i tried several times to purge and reinstall and reboot and still that problem after the update failed
[14:38] <marianne> ioria: yes, I can see them in terminal
[14:38] <ioria> marianne ehat attribs  they have ?
[14:38] <ioria> *what
[14:39] <marianne> ioria: drwxr-xr-x  2 root     root        4096 Jul 23 15:20 .AppleDB and drwxr-xr-x  2 root     marianne    4096 Jun  3  2014 .AppleDesktop
[14:40] <ioria> marianne and you can delete with sudo rm -rif folder ?
[14:41] <marianne> ioria: so the command would look like this    sudo rm -rif .AppleDB    ??
[14:41] <ioria> marianne if you want to delete , yes ( no trash bin)
[14:42] <marianne> ioria: ok...officially love you  thanks it works
[14:43] <ioria> marianne ok, enjoy it
[14:46] <Nokaji> Hi ioria, you asked me to update you from 20th Jul with my dvd writer issues - well in brief I decided to scrap it; it failed in Win8 though I could set the region code there. Wouldn't read non commercial DVD or blank DVDs. One thing I haven't tried is cleaning it with a disc cleaner but I've since replaced it with a blu ray and am trying to get that fully working now, lol
[14:47] <ioria> Nokaji, why not a normal rw dvd ? :-P
[14:47] <ioria> 20 $
[14:47] <Nokaji> I wanted blu ray ability
[14:47] <ioria> ok
[14:47] <Nokaji> backup and occasional movies for entertaining
[14:48] <ioria> Nokaji, blue ray it's easy on linux, i heard
[14:48] <ioria> *not
[14:48] <Nokaji> I got 'Handbrake' to re-encode a blu ray to mkv so can't be too far out, looks like it should work anyway
[14:49] <Nokaji> gotta be permisions or drivers - maybe i can find error messages to read but vlc shuts down after trying
[14:49] <ioria> Nokaji, i think you have already read this : http://www.libregeek.org/2014/01/05/a-guide-to-playing-blu-rays-on-ubuntu-linux/
[14:50] <Nokaji> Don't recognise it, I'll have a read - thanks
[14:50] <ioria> ok
[14:50] <air2402> do any of you use fanless computers ?
[14:51] <Nokaji> did find a setting in vlc no one seems to mention though,
[14:51] <Mneuro> Is there a way to not auto hide the menu bar on windows?
[14:51] <Mneuro> it is visible when mousing over it, but I would like it to be visible all the time
[14:52] <Nokaji> Input Codecs/ Access Modules/ Blu Ray/ blu Ray Menus
[14:52] <Nokaji> I've set it and now vlc waits 10secs befoe closing instead of almost immediate
[14:53] <Nokaji> air2402: saw a real heavy duty lump of metal case that acted as its own heatsink, proly had a pricetag to match, next best option is quit fans and fan control perhaps
[14:53] <Nokaji> quiet* fans
[14:54] <PanV> Hello! I recently heard rumours about Firefox blocking Flash or something.
[14:57] <ioria> Nokaji, have you already tried this pps  ppa:heyarje/makemkv-beta
[14:57] <ioria> ?
[14:58] <rforce> Доброго времени суток
[14:59] <rforce> Кто может помочь разлочить модем ?
[14:59] <rforce> пишите в личку
[15:00] <BluesKaj> !ru | rforce
[15:00] <Nokaji> ioria: : I haven't I'll add that to my list in case I need it. I think, short of dropping to Win8 to see what it does, I'm gonna see if i can burn to blu ray on a 25GB platter/disc
[15:02] <keisei> hi
[15:04] <keisei> sayan:hi
[15:05] <pj__> irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu
[15:05] <pj__> _> When I try to view the contents of a flashdrive in xubuntu through the file manager I get the error "Error mounting /dev/sdb1 at /media/pj/PJ: Command-line `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077" "/dev/sdb1" "/media/pj/PJ"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat' " Any idea how to fix this
[15:23] <ioria> pj__, try to in stall these : exfat-fuse   exfat-utils
[15:27] <Guest67205> while, is this the room for random chatting?
[15:28] <pj__> iora, thanks for the help that fixed the problem. Do you know why these packages don't come with ubuntu by default
[15:30] <BluesKaj> Guest67205,  no, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:30] <Guest67205> thanks, bye
[15:31] <ioria> pj__, to be honest idk ... maybe they are obsolete
[15:36] <nahledge> is there a tool to customize an existing iso's applications? I want to make a custom live cd of Ubuntu from outside of ubuntu...
[15:36] <cfhowlett> !uck | nahledge
[15:43] <emiliano> whats the point of this
[15:45] <Skyrider> I might as well here as well. I know that this is an ubuntu channel.. but if you had to choose between ubuntu 15.04 and debian 8 (SERVER) not desktop, what would you choose?
[15:45]  * cfhowlett checks irc channel ... yep.  it's ubuntu ...
[15:48] <norbin> I have configured a new DNS server (On ubuntu server) according to the guidelines here https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/dns.html
[15:48] <norbin> one by one, yet i am unable to ping local domain by name, says unknown domain
[15:49] <norbin> i can ping ip yes, but it won't reversedns even though ive set up the zone to do so too
[15:49] <norbin> so clearly something is wrong but i can't find out what
[15:49] <Skyrider> cfhowlett there's still a difference in server and desktop if you ask me. :p
[15:50] <cfhowlett> Skyrider, ubuntu server vs. debian server was your query.  this is the ubuntu channel so ...
[15:50] <cfhowlett> !server | Skyrider
[15:57] <Skyrider> 14.04?
[15:57] <Skyrider> I thought 15.04 was the new lts?
[15:58] <cfhowlett> Skyrider, no
[15:58] <Skyrider> mh, interesting.
[16:18] <Taz3r> Bonjour
[16:18] <Taz3r> Quelqu'un sait-il comment puis-je changer l'icône d'ubuntu en haut à droite dans le panel à droite du systray celui qui permet de changer de session ou d'éteindre l'ordinateur (l'icone de l'écrou)?
[16:19] <cfhowlett> !fr | Taz3r
[16:20] <Taz3r> Does anybody know how can I change the ubuntu icon at the top right in the panel to the right of the systemtray that allows changing session or shutdown the computer ?
[16:40] <ciarank> hey! im having some trouble installing ubuntu server and was wondering if anyone could help?
[16:40] <EriC^^> ciarank: what's up?
[16:41] <ciarank> i cant get it to detect my ssd :/
[16:41] <EriC^^> gpt msdos?
[16:42] <EriC^^> was it raided earlier?
[16:42] <ciarank>  being a total noob here, could you walk me through it?
[16:42] <EriC^^> ciarank: ok, do you have a live usb?
[16:43] <ciarank> im trying to use a SanDisk 128gb ssd, with a asus m2n68-am plus mobo
[16:43] <ciarank> im trying to install from usb yeah but theres no option to go live, just install
[16:43] <EriC^^> do you have any means of getting a live session?
[16:43] <ciarank> one minute
[16:44] <ciarank> i can execute a shell and abour the installation, im going to try the latter
[16:44] <EriC^^> ok
[16:45] <ciarank> i just get the installer boot menu
[16:46] <ciarank> Im thinking maybe get a usb with ubuntu desktop and see if i can go live from there
[16:46] <EriC^^> does the bios see it
[16:47] <EriC^^> yeah, good idea
[16:47] <ciarank> bios detects it
[16:47] <EriC^^> ciarank: ok, add libata.noacpi=1 to the kernel cmd line
[16:47] <EriC^^> http://superuser.com/questions/863073/ubuntu-14-04-doesnt-see-my-ssd-drive
[16:51] <ciarank> ill give that a go now
[16:51] <ciarank> ill give that a go now
[16:51] <EriC^^> ok
[16:55] <ciarank> i cant seem to get that :/
[16:55] <ciarank> im getting very limited optionns when i boot
[16:57] <ciarank> all the options i get are : Install Ubuntu Server, Multiple server install with, chekc disk for defects, test memory, boot from first hard disk, advanced options, help
[16:57] <ciarank> thats all my options
[16:59] <mgolisch> yeah you need to press e to edit the entry or something
[17:00] <ciarank> im going to put ubuntu desktop onto a usb, see if i can boot into that on the machine
[17:01] <EriC^^> ciarank: is there an option to edit the boot options or so?
[17:01] <EriC^^> which gives you a line like linux /vmlinuz ........etc.
[17:02] <ciarank> so im putting desktop 14.10 onto my usb now
[17:02] <EriC^^> ok
[17:03] <ciarank> i couldnt see any eric, what i listed is litrally all it gave m,e
[17:03] <mgolisch> i think you need to use the advanced or other options entry
[17:03] <mgolisch> it will show the boot cmdline then which you can edit
[17:04] <ciarank> creating persistant file now
[17:04] <ciarank> the advanced options was just to recover from a broken installation]#
[17:05] <ioria> something like F6 ?
[17:05] <TJ-> EriC^^: Which server release was that? 14.04 boot menu has "Install Ubuntu Server", "Multiple server install with MASS", "Check disk for defects", "Test memory", "Boot from first hard disk", "Rescue a broken system"
[17:06] <Taz3r> resolve, thx
[17:06] <ciarank> i was usuing server 15.04
[17:07] <ioria> Tj- seems he has an 'advanced options' menu
[17:07] <EriC^^> TJ-: ^
[17:07] <ciarank> i do but its only to rescue a broken installation :/
[17:07] <TJ-> Probably where it got hidden then
[17:08] <TJ-> For future reference, the BIOS and UEFI boot menus for server ISO (14.04) are the same even though BIOS is using isolinux (syslinux) not GRUB
[17:08] <EriC^^> TJ-: his installer isn't seeing his ssd
[17:09] <TJ-> EriC^^: Firmware controller mode issue - AHCI/RAID/IDE ?  ... UEFI/BIOS ?
[17:09] <ciarank> T his motherboard only has bios, no uefi, my nios is detecting my ssd but the installer isnt seeing it
[17:10] <ioria> ciarank, i think msdos is deprecated with ssd.... but not sure
[17:10] <EriC^^> wth is wrong with flash lately, i get 95'c cpu temps and now irc is in slow motion
[17:10] <ciarank> once i have the usb created i will see what my bios settings are, cant remember off the top of my head now
[17:10] <TJ-> ciarank: If it's SATA, which SATA version does the SATA controller on the motherboard support, and what does the SSD support?
[17:11] <TJ-> ciarank: I've seen systems where the controller and drive won't agree to talk at SATA 2 (or 3) and have to be forced to use SATA 1 (1.5Gbps link)
[17:11]  * EriC^^ remembers he installed fglrx-updates lately
[17:11] <zzo38> The xterm bell also doesn't work when I compile XTerm(271) from source
[17:11] <EriC^^> still flash is going bazerk though
[17:11] <ciarank> it supports sata 3Gb/s, the ssd im sure is 6Gb/s
[17:12] <zzo38> So possibly I misconfigured it and made the same mistake when configuring XTerm(297)?
[17:12] <TJ-> ciarank: Checking for that means, in the installer, getting to a root prompt and checking the output of 'dmesg' looking for SATA link negotiation issues
[17:12] <TJ-> EriC^^: flash, as in flash memory?
[17:12] <EriC^^> flashplugin
[17:13] <EriC^^> ever since the vulnerability update it's been hogging the cpu a lot
[17:13] <TJ-> EriC^^: Oh! ... disabled that pile of 0-days ages ago!
[17:13] <ciarank> pretty sure theres a solid reason that its getting phased out
[17:14] <TJ-> The only thing with more vulnerabilities is Microsoft Windows OS it seems, but vulnerabilities per line of code must be highest in Flash
[17:16] <ciarank> finally
[17:16] <ciarank> im booting into a live ubuntu desktop!
[17:17] <teward> generic question, but does anyone know of a USB 3.0 ethernet adapter that works out of the box with Ubuntu without any real additional driver installations?
[17:18] <loosebolton> Why does dual booting have to be such black magic :/ I want to switch from Ubuntu to Arch but I'm afraid I'll mess up grub somehow
[17:21] <loosebolton> I guess I could just shrink my Ubuntu partition instead of getting rid of it
[17:22] <TJ-> loosebolton: don't allow Arch to install a boot-loader, or remove the Ubuntu GRUB and let Arch's GRUB do it. Don't keep both around else they'll both try changing the same files
[17:22] <loosebolton> Yes, that's what I'm planning
[17:22] <loosebolton> I'll just add arch to ubuntu's menu
[17:23] <Kalkar> loosebolton; why would you like to switch to arch?
[17:23] <loosebolton> I'd like to learn more about how everything works together, and I think it would be easier to do when everything isn't already set up out of the box
[17:24] <Kalkar> loosebolton; then switching to arch is probably a very stupid idea
[17:24] <loosebolton> how so?
[17:24] <vigilant_> Hello! I was using steam without problems for many months and today it suddenly wont start and gives me this error: "SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
[17:24] <vigilant_> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)" help!
[17:24] <Kalkar> loosebolton; ubuntu isn't windows, it is linux
[17:24] <Kalkar> loosebolton; you can always reconstruct it to your liking
[17:24] <vigilant_> I even tried to reinstall steam, after purging and deleting all things steam
[17:24] <Kalkar> loosebolton; in the process, you'll learn quite a bit
[17:24] <TJ-> loosebolton: When update-grub runs it has a script /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober that scans all file-systems it can find and if it finds a valid OS adds its entry to the grub.cfg.  So you don't want GRUB installed in more than 1 OS else the boot loader config might get confused as both attempt to make changes if they update files (e.g. kernels)
[17:24] <Kalkar> loosebolton; trust me
[17:26] <Kalkar> loosebolton; reconstructing ubuntu isn't that difficult, considering you have an internet connection and a USB drive with a distro installed since if nothing goes wrong, you can always switch over to the live distro on the USB, find a solution to the problem, and apply it on ubuntu
[17:26] <Kalkar> anything goes wrong*
[17:27] <vigilant_> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)" anyone can help? I even reinstalled steam and deleted everything first.
[17:28] <vigilant_> Hello! I was using steam without problems for many months and today it suddenly wont start and gives me this error: "SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
[17:28] <loosebolton> maybe I'll just install it on my raspberry pi then, for fun
[17:29] <Kalkar> vigilant_; google is your best friend
[17:29] <vigilant_> Kalkar: google doesnt answer
[17:30] <ioria> vigilant_, ati drivers ?
[17:30] <vigilant_> Iora: yupp
[17:30] <ioria> !info fglrx-amdcccle
[17:30] <ioria> vigilant_, vivid ?
[17:31] <vigilant_> iora: 15.04 with RV730 - Radeon HD 4670
[17:31] <ioria> vigilant_, try to install the above ....
[17:32] <vigilant_> iora: is it supported for this early graphic card?
[17:32] <ioria> vigilant_, don't know :(
[17:34] <ioria> vigilant_, maybe you already have    dpkg -l fglrx-amdcccle
[17:34] <vigilant_> iora: "dpkg-query: no packages found matching fglrx-amdcccle"
[17:35] <ioria> vigilant_, try it ... you can remove/purge
[17:35] <vigilant_> iora: ok, sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle ?
[17:35] <ioria> vigilant_, yes, first apt-get update
[17:39] <zzo38> I fixed the bell; the problem was that the "libxkbfile-dev" package was missing and that caused the bell to not work
[17:40] <Nokaji> ioria: Hi again, I'm about to pop out but to give you a minor update n the blu ray stuff, I can't get it to burn to a blank disc - maybe brasero and CD/DVD Creator are simply not up to it (askubuntu claims otherwise on brasero) - maybe also this indicats the problem isn't with viewing rights software, I'll keep at ti when i get back.
[17:40] <vigilant_> ioria: then just reboot and try again?
[17:40] <ioria> vigilant_, yep
[17:40] <vigilant_> thanx :D
[17:40] <u0m3> hi, does anyone know if there is a way to make ubuntu ignore a usb device so I can assign it to a virtual machine? the system keeps taking control of it
[17:41] <Bluewolf> Hi all, I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome on my laptop Samsung i7-2675QM using a usb drive, but I don't know how to get it to boot of the drive. My settings in the bios are to boot off the usb drive before CD/DVD rom and Hard Drive. Any suggestions?
[17:41] <ioria> Nokaji, sorry to hear that
[17:41] <TJ-> u0m3: what kind of USB device? usually it requires blacklisting a driver, or do you need something more subtle?
[17:42] <Nokaji> ioria: okay , I have DVD access still, no immediate need for blu ray except to archive at sme point, i don't even own a TV
[17:42] <ioria> Nokaji, dvd is working , right ?
[17:42] <Nokaji> i'm off anyways ...
[17:42] <Nokaji> I can wath DVDs, not tried burning one
[17:43] <Nokaji> not tried CD either
[17:43] <Nokaji> oh, on my old DCD, I maanged to extract a CD to flac without errors so that indicates possible laser on the dvd issues
[17:43] <u0m3> TJ-, well so far I only needed a phone and a usb wifi card

[17:46] <sarawara> anyone know what the name of the ubuntu channel in dutch is?
[17:46] <Nokaji> ioria: Duly noted, thanks for all your help on this. One good thing is it forces me to dig under the bonet of ubuntu, I sorted my drive issues out form last week (drive names displayed as alphanumerics) so a sense of achievement, i'll keep plugging away, i also downloaded the free ubuntu book so maybe i'll crack it open
[17:46] <vigilant_> ioria: what is the command line to uninstall it?
[17:46] <sad> Hello .
[17:46] <Nokaji> yorwos: More the problem was reading but yes, can't burn either

[17:54] <vigilant_> ioria: aaah its a program!
[17:54] <ioria> vigilant_, it's a command
[17:55] <vigilant_> it says 'amd64-microcode'
[17:55] <vigilant_> ioria: it says 'amd64-microcode'
[17:56] <ioria> vigilant_, it should say  fglrx   .... additional drivers ?
[17:56] <vigilant_> ioria: just says amd64-microcode
[17:56] <ioria> vigilant_, and  additional drivers ?

[17:59] <Bluewolf> Hi all, I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome on my laptop Samsung i7-2675QM using a usb drive, but I don't know how to get it to boot of the drive. My settings in the bios are to boot off the usb drive before CD/DVD rom and Hard Drive. Any suggestions?
[18:00] <ObrienDave> remove the USB after installing ;P
[18:00] <ioria> vigilant_, don't you remember if you installed fglrx or you had the default driver ?
[18:00] <vigilant_> ioria: I never installed any driver for this card before today.
[18:00] <mobile_> quit
[18:01] <vigilant_> ioria: it just worked perfect at installtime
[18:01] <ioria> vigilant_, sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx*
[18:02] <vigilant_> ioria: and then reboot :)
[18:02] <ioria> vigilant_, yes
[18:03] <vigilant_> ioria: now it looks good again thanks :)
[18:04] <wileee> Bluewolf, Besides the bios choice you can do this per-session (boot) of what is booted, This sounds like uefi computer if so state that.
[18:04] <ioria> vigilant_, better ask to steam players :-)
[18:04] <vigilant_> ioria: where are they hiding?
[18:04] <ioria> vigilant_, :-þ maybe here
[18:04] <vigilant_> ioria: haha :D
[18:05] <vigilant_> Anyone else in here with steam problems today who managed to resolve them?
[18:05] <tgm4883> vigilant_: what kind of steam problems?
[18:06] <vigilant_> tgm4883: it worked perfect until today when I got this message on startup from terminal : 'SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
[18:06] <vigilant_> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
[18:06] <vigilant_> '
[18:06] <vigilant_> tgm4883: and then I do an uninstall purge all files away and then reinstall and same error.
[18:06] <tgm4883> vigilant_: nope, running fine here
[18:06] <vigilant_> tgm4883: funny thing is that my crossover steam still works ;)
[18:07] <tgm4883> just fired it up
[18:07] <vigilant_> ahh
[18:07] <vigilant_> I can emulate windows steam but not run linux steam, its crazy
[18:08] <Bluewolf> wileee: Pardon my knowlage on the laptop, its a friends. There is no option in the bios to directly boot off the device nor will it run on the OS on it when I plug the USB in (The OS currently installed is Ubuntu 14.04)
[18:08] <tgm4883> vigilant_: when you say you purge all files, does that include the files in your home dir?
[18:08] <Bluewolf>  uefi?
[18:08] <vigilant_> tgm4883: all the steam things, I read a howto uninstall steam on google and followed the steps
[18:09] <tgm4883> vigilant_: odd, nothing else changed?
[18:09] <wileee> Bluewolf, Should you be doing this to a friends computer with this little of understanding, personally I'm not gonna touch this anymore.
[18:10] <vigilant_> tgm4883: 'sudo apt-get remove steam' 'sudo apt-get purge steam'' rm -rf ~/.local/share/Steam && rm -rf ~/.steam'
[18:10] <vigilant_> tgm4883: then I reinstalled
[18:10] <tgm4883> vigilant_: I meant nothing else changed from the last time it worked?
[18:10] <vigilant_> tgm4883: nope
[18:10] <vigilant_> tgm4883: it installed fine, updated lots of files, but then when it wanted to startup the same error
[18:11] <tgm4883> vigilant_: what video card?
[18:11] <vigilant_> tgm4883: never had this problem before. Amd rv730
[18:11] <Bluewolf> wileee: Look, the friend in question knows less than I do. All I am trying to do is reinstall it via USB which its not booting off or even running in the ubuntu OS installed.
[18:12] <TJ-> Bluewolf: what is the make/model of PC?
[18:13] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: so it has ubuntu on there already?
[18:14] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Ah the make is samsung, as for the model I'm not sure as it does not say on the machine, is there a command I can enter in the terminal to find out?
[18:14] <TJ-> Bluewolf: "dmesg | grep DMI" should do it
[18:14] <vigilant_> I am wondering if I should get a new video card either a 'MSI GeForce210 1GB PhysX CUDA Low profil' or a 'ASUS GeForce GT 610 1GB Silent PhysX
[18:14] <vigilant_> GDDR3, DL-DVI-I, HDMI' would it be better than my amd rv730 for ubuntu?
[18:14] <fallore> whats the best way to disable mouse acceleration in ubuntu? i've heard that the "xset m 00" is not the best to use
[18:14] <wileee> Bluewolf, You are getting support, you need to respect my unwillingness to help you and why.
[18:14] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: Yes it has Ubuntu 14.04 on it, I want to put Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome as I don't like unity.
[18:15] <TJ-> Bluewolf: If the PC is already running Ubuntu, all you need to do is install the additional packages using "apt-get" or the Software Centre
[18:15] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: so do it via apt, don't bother with reinstalling the whole OS
[18:16] <Bluewolf> wileee: Indeed, and as us wish. Don't mean to bother, thanks for the help. :D
[18:16] <tgm4883> vigilant_: open source drivers?
[18:16] <TJ-> Bluewolf: as in "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop"
[18:17] <vigilant_> tgm4883: the ones ubuntu 15.04 uses automatically, didnt alter them at all
[18:17] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: TJ-: I want a clean install. As I will be doing a dual boot as well.
[18:18] <TJ-> Bluewolf: OK, well if the USB device won't boot then first thing is to check the ISO download wasn't corrupted, by comparing the hash checksum against the list on the download pages
[18:18] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: how did you make the usb?
[18:18] <TJ-> Bluewolf: 2nd thing to try is if that USB device will boot on any other PC - if not, the image in it is likely corrupt and needs re-writing to it
[18:18] <fallore> where do i edit my start programs?
[18:20] <Bluewolf> Tj-: I doubt, At the time I downloaded and made my USB bootable I checked. And this os I am talking to you from is installed from that same usb. Also I seem to recall this friends laptop being a pain last time with a reinstall via USB.
[18:21] <tgm4883> vigilant_: well something must have changed
[18:21] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: Startup Disk Creator I think
[18:22] <vigilant_> tgm4883: I just ordered the 'ASUS GeForce GT 610 1GB Silent PhysX
 GDDR3, DL-DVI-I, HDM' I bet its an amd error, its below the athloon 5000 mark which is where they put the line for updating the drivers the amd bastards
[18:22] <tgm4883> vigilant_: maybe. I've got an AMD card on open source drivers though
[18:22] <tgm4883> although...
[18:23] <vigilant_> tgm4883: its maybe not as old as my 4650?
[18:23] <tgm4883> vigilant_: well WTF
[18:23] <tgm4883> vigilant_: thinking about it, I didn't start it on my AMD card previously. I've got the same error
[18:23] <TJ-> Bluewolf: without the model of the PC we're in no position to help since the issue is the PC - you're in front of it and have access to the firmware setup, we don't,
[18:23] <tgm4883> vigilant_: and there was a steam update last night...
[18:23] <athan> Hey everyone - I can't seem to sign-in to my ubuntu desktop through ssh. I've installed openssh-server, but for some reason Doing `ssh athan@ip` won't accept my password
[18:23] <vigilant_> tgm4883:  :D :D
[18:23] <tgm4883> Bad valve! No biscuit
[18:23] <athan> it's asking for the password to the user, but rejects the correct one :\
[18:24] <athan> is there some group I need to add `athan` to?
[18:24] <athan> (This is on 15.04 btw)
[18:24] <vigilant_> tgm4883: so its a bug, I have no idea how to report those
[18:24] <Bluewolf> TJ-: okay, how do I get the model number, where do I get it from the software side?
[18:25] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: 'sudo dmidecode | grep -i Product'
[18:25] <TJ-> Bluewolf: As I said before: "dmesg | grep DMI" should do it
[18:25] <Bluewolf> Okay one moment
[18:29] <Bluewolf> TJ-: tgm4883: Okay here - Product Name, 700Z3A/700Z4A/700Z5A/700Z5B
[18:30] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: and you want to dual boot what?
[18:31] <TJ-> Bluewolf: so this is thw Win8 user manual for that model I think http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201210/20121028104609083/Win8_Manual_eng.pdf
[18:31] <tgm4883> vigilant_: when is the last time you successfully started steam? come to think of it, I probaby didn't start steam on my AMD card yesterday
[18:32] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: Windows 7 which appears to already be there, I guess I won't go through the hassle of reinstalling that as I don't have a windows disk.
[18:32] <boot13> Anyone know how to fix an unbootable system that shows error: symbol not found: grub_divmod64_full?
[18:32] <vigilant_> tgm4883: I definitevely started it yesterday
[18:33] <TJ-> Bluewolf: See page 102
[18:33] <vigilant_> tgm4883: was trying out some new humble jumbo bundle stuff :)
[18:33] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: I'm super confused now. It's already dual booting, you've got a working install of Ubuntu on there, and you said yourself that the laptop is a pain to install on. Why not just use apt to install gnome shell?
[18:36] <TJ-> Bluewolf: The clue is in "If you need to boot to DOS using a USB device, enter the BIOS Setup, select Advanced menu and set the Fast BIOS Mode item to Disabled"
[18:37] <tgm4883> vigilant_: ok, I've got a fix
[18:37] <vigilant_> tgm4883: I tried to contact steam support, but it feels like a maze of sh't
[18:37] <vigilant_> tgm4883: :D :D :D
[18:37] <vigilant_> tgm4883: hurra
[18:37] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: And that would completely remove every trace of unity?
[18:37] <tgm4883> vigilant_: "find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete" from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam#Steam_runtime_issues
[18:38] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: you could purge the unity stuff yes. This isn't windows where you need to reinstall the OS to fix 40% of the problems
[18:38] <vigilant_> tgm4883: I should run this command 'find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete'  ?
[18:39] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Page 102 is about changing the boot password, I dont get it. And the perpose of the Fast BIOS mode?
[18:39] <tgm4883> vigilant_: you're running 15.04 on open source amd drivers?
[18:39] <vigilant_> tgm4883: thats me
[18:39] <wileee> unity is a tiny plugin in compiz sitting on top of gnome 3 that is a bad idea, has most of the shell already in place.
[18:40] <vigilant_> tgm4883: and then reboot?
[18:40] <tgm4883> vigilant_: ni
[18:40] <tgm4883> no
[18:40] <Bluewolf> tgm4883: Old habits, truth is that I haven't been playing with this stuff for ages and have forgotten all the installation stuff. I feel bad :D
[18:40] <TJ-> Bluewolf: the BIOS config details start there, what little there is, and goes on to discuss the boot order options and the hint aobut disabling "Fast BIOS" mode which might the problem - Fast Boot (BIOS) mode usually means the default boot entry is loaded without first checking the boot devices for alternative boot loaders
[18:40] <tgm4883> vigilant_: just start steam after that
[18:40] <vigilant_> tgm4883: wooooow it woooorks :D :D :D
[18:40] <vigilant_> thanks
[18:41] <vigilant_> tgm4883: going to have to play all my adventure games to where I was before now though lol
[18:41] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Okay should I go ahead and give it a try quickly?
[18:41] <tgm4883> vigilant_: it's just removing the steam libraries that point at the old mesa. It's using system libraries now
[18:41] <TJ-> Bluewolf: seems like a lot of un-necessary hassle if all you want is Gnome!
[18:42] <TJ-> Bluewolf: but it might be useful as knowledge for the future to know if that is the cause
[18:42] <tgm4883> vigilant_: which means that A) a steam update in the future might mean you need to do that again, and B) it's possible you'll have some game instability since it's using newer libraries
[18:42] <Bluewolf> TJ-: I find it easier, but yes it is useful to know. I'll give it a try
[18:43] <vigilant_> tgm4883: ahh, I think I might just buy me that nvidia. I dumpstered this whole computer :)
[18:43] <vigilant_> tgm4883: maybe the graphic card is too old
[18:43] <tgm4883> vigilant_: well to be fair, the newer libraries might give you better performance as well. But it's always nice to have new hardware
[18:44] <rebs> was bash changed from 14.10 to 15.04
[18:44] <vigilant_> tgm4883: thanks for thelp :)
[18:44] <tgm4883> vigilant_: yw
[18:44] <vigilant_> the help
[18:47] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Here is something interesting, there is no Fast boot in the bios, in Advanced. I do see Legacy USB support and UEFI Boot support (Which I don't know what it means)
[18:47] <TheEagerPadawan> if i would like to study for LPIC-1, what whould be a good source to start with?
[18:49] <TJ-> Bluewolf: Sounds like that 'Windows' user guide is as bad as it looked, with no real details and inaccurate info. "Legacy USB support" means the firmware provides drivers to access USB devices like keyboard/mice/mass-storage for the boot-loader to use until the operating system takes over
[18:49] <TJ-> Bluewolf: "UEFI boot support" probably means whether the system tries to boot first in UEFI mode, or tries Legacy BIOS mode
[18:50] <wileee> rebs, This might help, you're question has no context. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Beginners/BashScripting
[18:50] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Okay that helps thanks, so now if there is no fast boot what other suggestions do you have?
[18:51] <TJ-> Bluewolf: Contact Samsung
[18:52] <Bluewolf> TJ-: And then, what do I say?
[18:53] <Bluewolf> TJ-: What about installing that Ubuntu from the current OS or even Windows, possible?
[18:53] <rebs> wileee, all I was wondering is if new functionality was introduced, or the version stayed the same
[18:54] <karmous> salut
[18:54] <karmous> y a quelqun
[18:54] <TJ-> Bluewolf: It sounds as if the machine is preventing the user from booting from removable media in some way, and the manual appears to contain incorrect information... I'd start with that. However, in the time you've spent messing about with this you could have done the "apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop" 100 times!
[18:55] <tgm4883> rebs: there appears to have been a change of bash between 14.10 and 15.04
[18:56] <tgm4883> rebs: a minor change though. It would probably help if we knew why you wanted to know that
[18:56] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Okay fine, I'll do it. But that includes completely removing all traces of unity.
[18:57] <rebs> well its a bash question, so it would be off topic here
[18:57] <TJ-> Bluewolf: plenty of folks here can tell you how to remove Unity :)
[18:57] <rebs> or can i ask bash questions here
[18:57] <TJ-> rebs: If it's related to an Ubuntu install, and possibly a config change, yes
[18:57] <Bluewolf> TJ-: You sure there up for the teaching, I'm a difficult student :D
[18:57] <TJ-> Bluewolf: I hadn't noticed :p
[18:58] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Lucky you, okay so in the terminal I enter "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop"
[18:59] <Bluewolf> How big is it to download?
[18:59] <Bluewolf> Slow interent connection.
[19:00] <karmous> ça marche comment ?
[19:01] <tgm4883> Bluewolf: if you run the command, it will tell you exactly how large the download is
[19:01] <TJ-> Bluewolf: I'm not sure, it depends on which new packages are required. apt-get should tell you
[19:03] <w30> Bluewolf, evidently apt-get can resume if you shut it off right.
[19:04] <tgm4883> w30: I don't think that's a good solution
[19:04] <w30> Bluewolf, http://askubuntu.com/questions/219242/how-do-i-pause-resume-download-and-install-from-terminal
[19:04] <Bluewolf> tgm4883, TJ-: Okay well it's going, you two have an idea of removing unity?
[19:04] <Bluewolf> w30: thanks
[19:05] <Bluewolf> Hope it goes well
[19:05] <Bluewolf> :D
[19:05] <smo80> why removing unity just use another session type.. gnome-shell or don t know what ...
[19:07] <Yohan55> hey everyone
[19:21] <Bluewolf> TJ-: Um help :D - the install is asking me what default display manager to select - gdm or lightdm?
[19:22] <lordievader> Bluewolf: Go lightdm, it is default for most flavours of Ubuntu.
[19:22] <Bluewolf> lordievader: Okay thanks .
[19:26] <AppAraat> hi, I am trying to automatically login to an LXDE session. The user has a password but I would like to get to the desktop after boot without password prompt. I've set "autologin=user" in /etc/lxdm/default.conf and I've also tried doing "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen 'true'" but none of these methods work.
[19:27] <AppAraat> (I'm running on Ubuntu 14.04 minimal with LXDE minimal installed)
[19:27] <Bluewolf> lordievader: Would you have any ideas on completely removing Unity?
[19:27] <lordievader> !purekde
[19:27] <lordievader> !puregnome
[19:28] <lordievader> Bluewolf: There is probably something among ^ that you can use ;)
[19:28] <AppAraat> !purelxde
[19:31] <wileee> AppAraat, this may help, http://lxlinux.com/#12
[19:31] <Bluewolf> lordievader: Appreciate it, and I just follow those steps there, nothing out of the ordinary I need to know?
[19:33] <lordievader> Bluewolf: Err I don't use Unity, so I don't know of any pitfalls. Try not to remove things your current desktop uses I guess.
[19:34] <Bluewolf> lordievader: ah well I'm not to sure on that stuff. . .
[19:35] <lordievader> Bluewolf: What kind of desktop are you running now?
[19:37] <Bluewolf> lordievader: Unity, and now I am in the process of switching to Gnome. Then after that I will be making all efforts to rid my machine completely of unity and its relations.
[19:38] <wileee> sigh
[19:38] <Bluewolf> Sigh
[19:39] <Bluewolf> wileee: Something I did wrong?
[19:39] <lordievader> Bluewolf: Isn't it easier to install Ubuntu gnome; https://ubuntugnome.org/
[19:39] <mintux> the output of libreoffice 4.* in jpg is broken. are there any same experience ?
[19:40] <wileee> Bluewolf, You're chasing a supposed street cred social/cultural bogus idea. Unity is tiny, it is a plugin in compiz, it is on top of what you just finished loading. It is just a DE not a political event, and removing it could really mess you up if done wrong and this is not even your computer. Only this is what I see.
[19:41] <mintux> are there anyone have libreoffice 3.6 installation ?
[19:42] <AppAraat> thanks wileee, apparently it was using lightdm. It didn't have a /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf so I created it with "autologin-user=user" and "autologin-user-timeout=0" as the only two entries.
[19:43] <wileee> AppAraat, That would be an issue, glad you figured it out, good job. ;)
[19:43] <AppAraat> thanks :)
[19:44] <AppAraat> now I need to work on the core functionality of that machine... which is Skype calling. That proves a bit difficult when webcam turns screen blue, but that's for another day hehe.
[19:45] <dawidd6> hello ppl, praise yourselves what are you doing now :)
[19:46] <maldridge> greetings all; I'm struggling to install drivers with ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, I want it to install proprietary drivers if there are any, otherwise install what is recommended, is there a way to do that?
[19:46] <dawidd6> maldridge what vendor?
[19:46] <maldridge> dawidd6: fglrx (amd)
[19:47] <dawidd6> maldridge: sudo apt-get install fglrx
[19:47] <maldridge> dawidd6: I have some machines that don't need fglrx though, which is why I was using ubuntu-drivers; is there a side effect to having it installed when not necessary?
[19:48] <wileee> Bluewolf, I don't doubt you're intentions are honorable, I just find them questionable in you taking the responsibility is all. that is all I will say, best of luck you will probably be fine.
[19:50] <fallore> when i play dota 2, using the alt button (which i use frequently) causes all sorts of trouble. it minimizes the game, it opens the right click dialog, etc. is there some way to disable all these shortcuts? i've looked in the keyboard settings menu but i dont see a lot of the problematic shortcuts
[19:50] <wileee> fallore, Unity desktop?
[19:50] <dawidd6> maldridge: i don't undestand you well, but i think it's not wrong to have proprietary and opensource drivers along side
[19:50] <fallore> wileee, i think so. fresh 14.04 install
[19:51] <prwilson> anyone know how up-to-date fglrx-updates is compared to the amd catalyst download (current is 15.70)?  seems like ubuntu's version #s aren't in sync with amds
[19:51] <Devilus> Hello, I recently bought 4 memory sticks of 8gb(32gb total), still ubuntu will detect only 16GB ram, what can I do?
[19:51] <wileee> fallore, menu on left of screen?
[19:51] <fallore> wileee, yes, which i hate :(
[19:51] <transhuman> hi how do i find the lvmid of a volume (I had to copy the boot sector from another install in order to recover
[19:51] <prwilson> Devilus: sounds like an issue with your hardware.  the extra ram doesn't show up in the bios, does it?
[19:52] <Devilus> prwilson: actually it does, I looked up the setup, and it is there
[19:52] <fallore> wileee, i guess the problem is generally that the alt key is almost like the super key in windows? i think if i could change that most of my problems would go away
[19:52] <Devilus> prwilson: I also tried using lshw also shows it
[19:52] <wileee> fallore, Cool, there is a compizconfig setings manager you would install, the keybaord would be changed there, be very careful.
[19:52] <wileee> careful with that manager overall
[19:53] <maldridge> dawidd6: I manage a large lab, some generations of hardware need fglrx, some don't.  I intend to use a single bootstrap script to get most of the system software installed and I was concerned if there are any adverse side effects to having fglrx installed when not needed
[19:53] <prwilson> Devilus: what's not showing it?
[19:53] <Devilus> prwilson: free -m
[19:53] <Devilus> prwilson: I also tried gnome-system-manager, it is not shown there as well
[19:53] <fallore> wileee, is there like an overarching setting i can change so that alt doesn't do everything it does now? like could i make it the right alt, instead of left alt?
[19:53] <prwilson> Devilus: are you running 64 bit ubuntu?
[19:54] <Devilus> prwilson: yep
[19:54] <transhuman> maldridge it seems to work great, but I have noticed some things that concern me with the security of that solution. I could be wrong..I installed it on my kids machines but all of them failed a couple weeks after (just make sure you have a backup)
[19:54] <wileee> fallore, Not that I know of, as far as I know you have to hit each individually if customizing, however I have not had any issue needing this.
[19:55] <Devilus> prwilson: Not sure if it helps, but "sudo dmidecode --type memory" will also show all memory sticks
[19:56] <fallore> wileee, do you think getting rid of unity and using something else would fix the issue?
[19:56] <Devilus> prwilson: free -m will show only 16GB =/
[19:56] <transhuman> anyone able to tell me how i find the lvmid?
[19:56] <prwilson> Devilus: you aren't using xen are you?
[19:56] <maldridge> transhuman: thanks for the info, my site keeps very good backups after a windows dc took a fileserver with it a few years ago
[19:56] <mgolisch> transhuman: what do you mean by that?
[19:56] <transhuman> without peeking at the one thats wrong in grub
[19:56] <Devilus> prwilson: I don't think so, what is xen?
[19:56] <prwilson> Devilus: also make sure yoiu have the latest bios
[19:57] <wileee> fallore, I would not worry about unity being there personally, but for gaming I assume the lightest usable de would be my choice, but I don't game.
[19:57] <mgolisch> why dont you just boot a livecd and let update-grub fix stuff?
[19:57] <Devilus> prwilson: I have the latest bios
[19:57] <transhuman> as I said I had concern over multiple failures on machines that I installed it a couple weeks later
[19:57] <mgolisch> or what exactly is your issue?
[19:57] <fallore> wileee, do you know what the 2nd most common alternative might be? is openbox an alternative or does that replace something else?
[19:57] <transhuman> could be something or it could be nothing
[19:58] <fallore> also does anyone know a good support channel specifically for ubuntu or linux gaming?
[19:58] <maldridge> fallore: you could try the planonlinux channels
[19:58] <transhuman> mgolish the whole first 1000MB of disk was wiped
[19:58] <prwilson> Devilus: i don't know.  weird problem.  try resetting your bios and reseating your ram
[19:58] <Devilus> prwilson: It is also worth noting that the motherboard automatically sets the memory frequency to 1333, I have to set it to 1666 manually
[19:58] <wileee> fallore, Not sure really, that is sorta your area of investigation, although you will get subjective opinions on this.
[19:59] <mgolisch> and there was nothing on that?
[19:59] <prwilson> Devilus: see if it works at 1333.
[19:59] <fallore> of course wileee. thank you for your help, i'll start doing some research. was just hoping for a jumping-off point :)
[19:59] <Devilus> prwilson: k, let me check
[19:59] <transhuman> nothing on what mgolisch
[19:59] <mgolisch> like iam not sure your lvm stuff will work if the lvm pv was partialy on those parts that were erased/overwritten
[19:59] <transhuman> the first 1000 MB was wiped by an error
[20:00] <wileee> fallore, Sure I understand, best.
[20:00] <transhuman> I have created another disk with the same layout and same names only thing that remains wrong is the lvmid
[20:00] <fallore> maldridge, is playonlinux an app or a community?
[20:00] <dark> an app
[20:00] <mgolisch> i think the lvm metadata is stored somewhere on the begining of the partition of the physical volume
[20:00] <mgolisch> so its probably lost
[20:01] <mgolisch> or do you lvm volumes actualy work?
[20:01] <mgolisch> like you can mount them successfully
[20:01] <Devilus> prwilson: Kind of helped, now at 1333MHz it recognizes a little bit more memory
[20:01] <Devilus> prwilson: 24GB
[20:01] <mgolisch> like if you do pvscan or vgscan or lvscan does it actualy list anything?
[20:02] <Devilus> prwilson: Seems like it somehow hardware related huh?
[20:02] <prwilson> Devilus: yeah definitely.  at least you've got it recognizing more now.  i'd try reseating the ram and switching the chip locations when you do it.  you may also want to reset your bios.
[20:04] <transhuman> yes i can mount the volumes
[20:04] <transhuman> no problem
[20:04] <Devilus> prwilson: right, give me a moment
[20:04] <transhuman>  its the boot sector thats lost
[20:05] <EriC^^> boot sector? or mbr?
[20:05] <EriC^^> nevermind
[20:05] <maldridge> fallore: its a package that helps make wine work for a ton of stuff, but they have a decent community
[20:06] <fallore> thanks maldridge, i asked my question, hopefully i'll get a response :)
[20:06] <fallore> whats the best way to make ubuntu work more like windows/linux mint, where you have a panel, your windows on that panel, and a "start menu" of sorts? am i looking for a windows manager, a different desktop environment, or what? just need to know some basics so i can point my research in the right direction
[20:06] <transhuman> mbr and first 1000 MB which had boot volume
[20:07] <transhuman> I am sure I can get it working with the lvmid
