[11:01] <adrianrh> hi! does anyone know about a manual for prioritizing ram usage in ubuntu?
[11:02] <nibbler_> adrianrh: don't start processes you don't need
[11:02] <nibbler_> adrianrh: what is your problem?
[11:03] <adrianrh> I need to run a series of script, they have a CPU intinsive part and a ram intensive part, I want to run them simultanously (have 8 cores), but want them to wait for each other when they arrive at the ram intensive part
[11:04] <SpacePoet> how do i clone a drive onto a larger drive??
[11:04] <subaash> tar it
[11:06] <SpacePoet> tar it?
[11:07] <adrianrh> nibbler_, did you see my answer (forgot to add your name)
[11:07] <nibbler_> adrianrh: got it. well, i guess you shold do some ipc or locking then.
[11:08] <adrianrh> nibblier_ what is an ipc? and what do you mean by locking?
[11:09] <adrianrh> nibblier_ what is an ipc? and what do you mean by locking?
[11:09] <adrianrh> nibbler_
[11:10] <adrianrh> ^^
[11:10] <subaash> adrianrh: ipc is inter process commn.
[11:11] <nibbler_> adrianrh: inter process communication. like locking. before entering the memory intense part check for existance of /tmp/my.lock, if its there, wait a bit, recheck. if its not there, create it, do memory intense stuff, delete it.
[11:12] <nibbler_> adrianrh: the important thing is to do things atomar to avoid race conditions
[11:15] <MoooookiE> Hi, can someone please tell me why the older installation of ubuntu 12.04 have the 3.2 kernel but the server I set up last week with 12.04 have the 3.5 kernel?
[11:16] <adrianrh> nibbler_ thankyou for your help, I have written down your advice and will try to use it. saidly the scripts i need to run are not atomar and I cannot spit them (they are written elsewhere), I will try the tmp/my.lock thing and look into ipc.
[11:18] <maxb> MoooookiE: The inference I draw from that is that you have not, in fact, set up a standard install of 12.04
[11:19] <kewel> trying to add a ppa and got this: http://pastebin.com/aRewsL3j
[11:19] <MoooookiE> maxb: I thought I use the default server iso from ubuntu.com
[11:19] <maxb> Sounds to me like you installed 12.10
[11:20] <MoooookiE> lsb_release -a tells "Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS"
[11:21] <maxb> What about "uname -a" and "dpkg -l linux-image-generic" ?
[11:21] <TuxVarmari> Guys, I'm in trouble
[11:21] <TuxVarmari> I resized my screen
[11:21] <TuxVarmari> And now I can't click the ok button
[11:22] <TuxVarmari> To resize it back
[11:22] <TheVarmari> help me please
[11:23] <MoooookiE> maxb: on the one server there is `linux-image-generic-lts-quantal` installed instead of `linux-image-server`. How can this happen?
[11:23] <maxb> I guess someone installed it
[11:23] <TheVarmari> erm
[11:23] <TheVarmari> guys?
[11:24] <TuxVarmari> is there like a shortcut for pressing the OK button in system settings?
[11:24] <rupert> alt+o?
[11:25] <TuxVarmari> nope
[11:25] <TuxVarmari> that is shortcut for rotation in display
[11:25] <MoooookiE> maxb: that must happend at the install process. Nobody installed this manually.
[11:25] <rupert> hm, then trial and error with tab
[11:25] <TuxVarmari> YAY
[11:25] <TuxVarmari> it worked the first time around
[11:26] <TuxVarmari> and now it's EVEN BETTER
[11:26] <rupert> nice
[11:26] <TuxVarmari> before it was like, too small
[11:26] <maxb> Perhaps there's some logic in the installer for that then, I do not know. Maybe it felt the hardware needed a newer kernel to be best supposed or something? (This is guesswork)
[11:26] <TuxVarmari> black bars
[11:26] <TuxVarmari> ^_ ^

[12:03] <tricky> hi
[12:03] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: did you change bios to dvd first boot?
[12:04] <tricky> anyone know how to install ms dos into ubuntu
[12:04] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, yes. and I also explicitly stated in the bood options to boot from dvd.
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> ddssc:you have another ubuntu installed right now?
[12:05] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, I got mint
[12:05] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: so its the mint grub you seeing?
[12:05] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, says ubuntu grub 11
[12:05] <ddssc> but it only offers me the options to run either mint or win7
[12:06] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: seems like your dvd doesnt boot ubuntu setup for some reason
[12:06] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: you got an usb to try?
[12:06] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso is what I burned
[12:06] <Mustang_> nevyn: not sure what your asking, public key is already on server and connecting client is already known to server. i am seeing this in auth.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[12:06] <GreenTuxer> hi guys. 13.04 RC was supposed to be released yesterday (according to release schedule), is there any info on the delay and when it will be released? Thanks

[12:07] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: doublecheck bios for F12 boot maybe and choose dvdrom
[12:07] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, why do you think the stick should yield better results? it's not a hw issue, Im sure about that
[12:07] <nevyn> Mustang_: encrypted home?
[12:07] <Mustang_> nope
[12:08] <ddssc> lotuspsychje, I can even hear it booting from my dvd, so the only option is that dvd burned is not a bootable img
[12:08] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: doesnt make sense it does not boot setup, so its bios or corrupt burn onto dvd
[12:09] <lotuspsychje> ddssc: will be the dvd bad burned, try to make a bootable usb stick

[12:16] <Mustang_> nevyn: actually i might be encrypted, is there a workaround if this is the case?

All good, but I can't apt-get build-essentials, because it seems like the g++ libs are broken, thus it returns E: Broken package. Is there a way I can fix it? And yes I tried sudo apt-get update, it still fails. My sources.list - http://paste.ubuntu.com/5721419/. Thanks in advance.

[12:48] <mzaza> Which package is better Virtual Machine Manager or VirtualBox?
[12:49] <philinux> yourimym1: as long as the uuid is for sda9 you are good to go. What about sda6 you are not touching that
[12:50] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  'better' depends on what you like and need, but vbox free and in the repos
[12:51] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: Which is more reliable?
[12:51] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  what other beside vbox do you mean? vmware? i only know vbox, as vmware is not free and not in the repos

[13:20] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: in my home folder I have several hidden folders but none that start with tryton
[13:20] <atlef> !tar
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> tarek_: is it in ~/.config
[13:21] <k1l> Newber: are you sure that program doesnt come in the repos?
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> Newber: the file extension doesn't tell us anything
[13:21] <yourimym1> what is best swap value for better performance ?
[13:21] <k1l> Newber: andthere should be a readme in it, or the place where you ot that archive (tar.gz is a archive like .zip)
[13:21] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: yes there is
[13:21] <yourimym1> if i have 2gb RAM and 1.5 gb swap
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> yourimym1: depends on how much ram you have
[13:22] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: there is a tryton folder in .config
[13:22] <k1l> yourimym1: there is no performance with swap
[13:22] <k1l> yourimym1: swap is always a slow fallback. using ram is always faster
[13:22] <Newber> kll, ok I will look. Thanks
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> yourimym1: 1.5Gb swap space isn't really enough for 2Gb RAM, you will want 2.2Gb, you will not be able to hibernate with 1.5Gb swap
[13:22] <yourimym1> ActionParsnip: i've disabled hibernate
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> yourimym1: I always set swappiness to between 5 and 10
[13:23] <k1l> Newber: what program do you want to install?
[13:23] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: from where do I go from here?
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> Newber: its like asking the same in windows, the archive could contain source code, or binaries, or a mix
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Newber: there is no single answer, simply saying that it is an archive and expecting an exact answer is a bit silly
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Newber: is the application not in software centre?
[13:24] <yourimym1> ActionParsnip:  i need to set swap to 40 , what is the command
[13:24] <Newber> ActionParsnip. Well, calling me silly is pretty silly itself. Think about it. What can I do with a file container.. Hmmmm. Maybe I want to extract it and install the content right?
[13:24] <julian-delphiki> yourimym1, 40 what
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> yourimym1: set it in /etc/sysctl.conf    you can then run:  sudo sysctl -p   to apply it
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> Newber: but what is the content, the fact it is an archive doesn't dsclose the contents, does it?
[13:25] <SpawnXp> Hi i deleted the user from webmin, but didnt delete his files , how do i go about deleting his files ?
[13:25] <yourimym1> ActionParsnip: which line to edit  ?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Newber: some archives you can extract and run the files as they are prebuilt files, some contain source  code which will need compiling
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> yourimym1: just add the setting at the bottom
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Newber: like I said, there is no single answer
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Newber: the archive could be a hoarde of wallpapers to apply to the system, in which case the archive will be full of images, again this will be different
[13:27] <julian-delphiki> Newber, ActionParsnip is correct.
[13:27] <k1l> Newber: first way should be to look if its in the official ubuntu repos
[13:28] <Newber> ActionParsnip, true. I shouldve been more specific. But as I said install its pretty obvious i do not want to install pictures. I mean its possible in one sense.. Nvm, this discussion is useless
[13:29] <yourimym1> ActionParsnip:  and disable , and reenable swap then ?
[13:29] <k1l> Newber: there are several different ways to "install" programs. that is depending on that format is in that archive. like source code, .sh .deb etc...
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Newber: try extracting the archive, then look at what you have
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Newber: you will then know and you can ask  better question
[13:30] <snuggl> k1l: are you familiar with windows?
[13:30] <esx> Newber: Just tell us *what* you are trying to install!
[13:30] <snuggl> oh nm
[13:30] <k1l> so asking: "how to install a archive " doesnt tell us what specific install way you need
[13:30] <Newber> kll, ok. Im used to windows and usually there is a simple way. So, I did not know that.
[13:30] <k1l> snuggl: better try ##windows :)
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Newber: what file did you download?
[13:31] <k1l> Newber: we have more than just .exe under linux
[13:31] <nello> ciao
[13:31] <snuggl> k1l: nm
[13:31] <k1l> Newber: so again: look out for your secret program, if it comes in the official ubuntu repos. or if there is a PPA for it.
[13:32] <nello> !list
[13:32] <snuggl> Newber: in 99% of the cases do "tar xfvz filename.tar.gz; cd filenamedir/; ./configure; make; make install;"
[13:32] <k1l> snuggl: :/
[13:32] <k1l> snuggl: at least use checkinstall
[13:32] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: as mentioned before the .config/tryton path exists
[13:33] <yourimym1> ActionParsnip: thx :)
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> tarek_: rename that and then run the app again
[13:33] <Newber> snuggl: THANKS! That was a good standard answer which gives me the possibility to investigate the tar command and learn
[13:33] <snuggl> k1l: you had your chance for a "real" answer and dropped it
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Newber: that assumes it is source code...may not be the case
[13:34] <snuggl> Newber: but as kll said, there are some kind of checkinstall? on ubuntu that you might want to use
[13:34] <k1l> snuggl: there is no real answer in case of dropping a commandline
[13:34] <snuggl> yes there are, if you ever have done it before
[13:34] <snuggl> he asked specifically how to install a tar.gz
[13:34] <habanany> hey guys , termianl is been stocked in this stage for about half hour .... what should i do
[13:34] <habanany> .2-0ubuntu8_all.deb) ...
[13:34] <habanany> Unpacking replacement python3-apport ...
[13:34] <habanany> Preparing to replace apport 2.9.1-0ubuntu1 (using .../apport_2.9.2-0ubuntu8_all.deb) ...
[13:35] <k1l> snuggl: :/
[13:35] <wilee-nilee> habanany, This via update or a install?
[13:35] <k1l> snuggl: i hope you stay in here untill he wants to uninstall that secret software
[13:35] <habanany> update usb ringtail persistent
[13:35] <wilee-nilee> !13.04 | habanany
[13:36] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: renaming it didn't work and deleting it either
[13:36] <habanany> ok thanks
[13:36] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: didn't work
[13:36] <Newber> kll, why are you so intressted of what I install? Its my business. Im here to learn. Though that was the deal with this place, maybe I was misinformed
[13:36] <tflgen2> hi, i'm having trouble figuring out why my init script isn't being called at boot
[13:37] <k1l> Newber: to find the best install solution for that specific program
[13:37] <snuggl> Newber: becuase ppl was a dick to him when he learned, so he feel the need to pass the dickery on. welcome to irc =P
[13:37] <snuggl> just get used to it
[13:37] <tflgen2> i've run update-rc.d scriptname defaults
[13:38] <k1l> Newber: if you are interessted in automatic updates and security updates than the way mentioned is not the best way because it lacks of both
[13:39] <Newber> snuggl, he he. Thanks
[13:39] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:40] <Newber> kll, ok. So which would be the best way and what information would you need in order to give me the best way to install?
[13:40] <k1l> Newber: you are free to install what ever you want. dont get me wrong. but ubuntu got some automatic services that could help you.
[13:40] <Newber> alright. Which is?
[13:41] <k1l> Newber: the best way is to install the software from the official repos. (like mentioned several times before). if its not in there i would suggest to look out for a PPA repo
[13:41] <lacrymology> how come I have kernel 3.2 when 3.8 is out? how can I install 3.8 on precise?
[13:42] <k1l> lacrymology: you can get the 3.5 kernel on precise.
[13:42] <cfhowlett> lacrymology, try sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:42] <k1l> lacrymology: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[13:42] <lacrymology> cfhowlett: I installed a LTS version so I didn't need to do that for a while
[13:43] <cfhowlett> lacrymology, I beg to differ.  I've had at least 2 kernel upgrades on 12.04
[13:43] <k1l> lacrymology: LTS is meant for stability. it wont have the latest kernel and latest stuff
[13:44] <lacrymology> k1l: fantastic. But the current kernel is broken. It's got at least a known issue that is fixed in later versions
[13:44] <lacrymology> that's not been patched
[13:44] <k1l> lacrymology: are you sure its not patched by the ubuntu maintainer?
[13:45] <j2daosh> hey all. i'm having a weird bug with unity. if i log into the gui, then switch to the f1 console, log in, run some generic commands (ls, ps -ef, etc) and then try to switch back to the gui, it never comes back. it just turns off the monitor signal (monitor light goes from green to amber) and i can't get the gui back unless i init 6. anyone else had this problem before?
[13:45] <lacrymology> k1l: at least the issue in the tracker's been abandoned for a while with no resolution
[13:46] <lacrymology> k1l: all I really know is I have latest packages and I can reproduce an issue that's been around for over 6 months
[13:46] <lacrymology> k1l: ok, so different question. Is there a way I can compile and install kernel 3.8?
[13:47] <tarek_> ActionParsnip: do you have any other options?
[13:48] <lacrymology> cfhowlett: I too have had at least two kernel updates. IIRC, it went from 2.8 to 3.2. But the point still stands that 3.8 is out, and I have
[13:48] <k1l> !kernel | lacrymology
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> lacrymology  true, 3.8 is out and 13.04 uses it
[13:49] <lacrymology> k1l: yeah, but in the mainline kernel page there seems to be no 3.8 package for precise. Latest seems to be 3.3
[13:49] <cfhowlett> lacrymology, if the latest shiny kernel isn't offered via upgrade, as I would expect for LTS, you might have to manually install
[13:49] <lacrymology> MonkeyDust: well, 12.04 is supposed to have.. what, 4ys support?
[13:50] <lacrymology> cfhowlett: I think I had misunderstood what dist-upgrade does, I'll try that
[13:50] <k1l> lacrymology: see the mentioned kernel compile page
[13:50] <lacrymology> !mainline
[13:50] <ronillon> Hello, for aabout how long is linux using package management system? i could trace it to 2002, but i guess its much longer
[13:50] <snuggl> lacrymology: there is a kernel-ppa for newer versions
[13:50] <MonkeyDust> lacrymology  the kernel used in 12.04 is supported for several years, not replaced
[13:50] <k1l> ronillon: either ask in ##linux or in the offtopic channel
[13:50] <harris> caboose885,
[13:50] <harris> wicd-curses
[13:51] <ronillon> k1l:  thank you
[13:51] <lacrymology> MonkeyDust: ok, so newer patches are applied to it, I guess
[13:51] <harris> caboose885, sudo wicd-curses
[13:51] <snuggl> ronillon: RPM has been around since the ninties
[13:51] <MonkeyDust> lacrymology  yes, but not new kernels
[13:51] <k1l> lacrymology: thats what i tried to tell you.
[13:52] <lacrymology> k1l: sorry, didn't understand that
[13:52] <ronillon> snuggl: i thought it would be something like that, thanx
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> lacrymology  a patch is not a new kernel
[13:52] <harris> rdz, how do i use wicd-curses
[13:52] <DCE25ESK> http://www.flickr.com/photos/srsly/8658898500/in/photostream
[13:52] <snuggl> MonkeyDust: it is, just not a new kernel version
[13:53] <MonkeyDust> lacrymology  snuggl explains more correctly
[13:53] <lacrymology> ok
[13:54] <snuggl> lacrymology: if you want a newer version, go to the kernelPPA, if you want to apply patches you follow help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[13:57] <lacrymology> ok, thank you

[14:11] <theadmin> Is there a channel for the Midnight Commander?
[14:12] <petrus_> good question
[14:15] <theadmin> Or does anyone know what happened to their website, more of, is the project still alive?
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> theadmin  it's still in the 13.04 repos, hence supported - does that make sense?
[14:17] <theadmin> MonkeyDust: Well, it does, and the latest release wasn't that long ago it seems. Hm. Oh well I'll wait till midnight-commander.org is back up then
[14:19] <llutz> theadmin: latest version is 2 weeks old, so at least someone still does some work on it
[14:19] <slinnky> 2 weeks old? I'd say that's still actively developed, llutz
[14:20] <theadmin> Eeeh, guess I'm worrying over nothing
[14:21] <llutz> just the site seems to be down. better they code mc than wasting time fixing websites

[14:25] <theodorDiaconu> in an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS VM, I use ctrl + alt + arrows to switch between spaces, well up and down works, but left and right doesn't. Any ideas ?
[14:27] <BluesKaj> theodorDiaconu, does ctrl+F1,2,3...etc work ?
[14:27] <theodorDiaconu> trying now
[14:28] <theodorDiaconu> BluesKaj, it does not
[14:28] <theodorDiaconu> I checked compiz settings, and for switching it is <ctr><primary><alt> left
[14:28] <theodorDiaconu> same for up and down

[14:34] <aneks> user, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/iTalc
[14:34] <theadmin> sprezzatura: Normally there is none, that user is simply used by the daemons and you don't log in as the user or anything like that
[14:34] <sprezzatura> theadmin: i have uwsgi installed and i find that the uwsgi logs are not getting written. want to find if this a  permission issue
[14:35] <KeyboardNotFound> how to find files owned by user 'nekoj' ?
[14:35] <theadmin> sprezzatura: You can use "sudo -iu www-data" to get a shell as that user, if that's what you're looking for.
[14:36] <user> aneks, thanks. the master must be a Server O.S?
[14:36] <theadmin> KeyboardNotFound: find base_directory -user nekoj
[14:36] <sprezzatura> ok. theadmin
[14:36] <sprezzatura> theadmin:  this too : echo 1 | sudo -u www-data tee loggile

[14:38] <sburjan> Hello. Does anybody know why my Ubuntu connects  to a wireless N 300 Mbit network with only 150Mbit ? I have Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000chipset, which should be able to connect to 300 wireless
[14:38] <mojtaba> Hi, Does anybody know how can I low level format my external hard drive?
[14:39] <user> theadmin thanks
[14:39] <aneks> mojtaba, maybe try Gparted?
[14:40] <mojtaba> aneks: Can I format it, low level?
[14:40] <BluesKaj> low level format , means ? mojtaba
[14:40] <user> for italc, the master interface must be installed on a Server or it can be good for Desktop version
[14:40] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: Actually the hard disk had some problems and I want to make sure that after formatting it, the problems are fixed.
[14:41] <aneks> mojtaba, you should be able to. I'd download gparted and try.
[14:41] <chro> if I reduce the icon size in the unity bar, they stay with a poor quality. Why?
[14:41] <BluesKaj> mojtaba, what problems ?
[14:41] <litropy> I want to use my router's syslog functionality. It's just asking for an IP address ... I can figure that out just fine, but what do I have to do with my box to receive/view the log?
[14:42] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: I did not have access to part of my files. (although I had the permission)
[14:42] <BluesKaj> formatting won't help . afaik , it will wipe them out , mojtaba
[14:43] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: What about low level format, which I have heard it will kind of reset it to factory settings.
[14:43] <litropy> looks like I answered my own question: http://nickhumphreyit.blogspot.com/2012/09/how-to-setup-syslog-server-on-ubuntu.html
[14:44] <litropy> If anyone has anything to add, I'm all ears.
[14:44] <BluesKaj> !format | mojtaba
[14:44] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: The hard disk become unmounted automatically
[14:45] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: For example at the moment it says: " could not stat device /dev/sdb - No such file or directory."
[14:47] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: I was using it now. I think the problem occurred when for the first time my laptop shut-down unexpectedly.
[14:47] <serkamil> hello
[14:48] <chro> if I reduce the icon size in the unity bar, they stay with a poor quality. Why?
[14:48] <theadmin> chro: That ain't supposed to happen, try restarting unity (e.g. logging out and back in), might be some drawing issue
[14:49] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: ?!
[14:49] <litropy> Yep, works.
[14:49] <chro> theadmin, already did that, but the issue persists
[14:50] <subthalamus> is there another method to enable ipv6 in quantal besides sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0 ?
[14:51] <trejiin> On mint 14, would apt-get dist-upgrade take me to ubuntu 13.04?
[14:51] <litropy> chro, the images for the icons come in packs of different resolutions ... Say, one image is 24x24 pixels, then 48x48, 128x128, et cetera, If you size the buttons to something inbetween, it's subject to compression artifacts. Although it shouldn't be all that noticeable.
[14:51] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: are you there?
[14:52] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: Do you have any idea?
[14:53] <chro> thanks it worked with a size of 42
[14:53] <litropy> chro, yw.
[14:54] <litropy> mojtaba, afak, any level of formatting a drive will wipe it clean.
[14:54] <litropy> mojtaba, you'll lose all your files.
[14:54] <litropy> mojtaba, but ya, it will reset to default settings, and you should be able to use it, mind you,, as a totally blank drive.
[14:54] <mojtaba> litropy: I know that, I have just copied those I could.
[14:55] <mojtaba> litropy: Will it fix the problems like bad sectors?
[14:55] <litropy> mojtaba, so ya ... use a liveCD or liveUSB, open up gparted, and go ahead.
[14:55] <litropy> mojtaba, it will set all the bits on the drive to 0.
[14:55] <mojtaba> litropy: Why liveCD?
[14:56] <mojtaba> litropy: I have ubuntu and it is external hard drive
[14:56] <litropy> mojtaba, if your drive is physically failing, it won't fix that.
[14:56] <mojtaba> litropy: How can I make sure if it is physically or not?
[14:56] <litropy> mojtaba, so long as you're not running your OS off of the drive, then you can use gparted without the liveCD/liveUSB
[14:56] <something323> where canI get "gpart" I an trying data recovery with gparted and it says I am missing thecommand gpart and to install It but I cant ifnd any info through a google search
[14:57] <mojtaba> litropy: Is there any log file or utility which can find if it is physically failing or not?
[14:57] <aneks> something123, you mean gparted? tried sudo apt-get install gparted?
[14:58] <litropy> mojtaba, off-hand, I'd say if you reformat it, treat it like you should, and you still have drive-related problems, it's pretty safe to say it's physically failing.
[14:58] <something323> no, the exact word is "gpart" gparted itself runs fine, but to run the data recovery it gives an error
[14:59] <mojtaba> litropy: Then there is no way to fix it? :(
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> something323: you may find data recovery success with foremost
[14:59] <Doxin> I've got a bit of a problem with this R.A.T.5 mouse I have. it has some extra buttons, holding button #12 and then clicking button #1 seems to send it as some sort of combined press which makes programs ignore it. is there some way to make these buttons send separate events?
[15:00] <litropy> mojtaba, you could send it in for repair ... but with the way drives are coming down in price these days, you might spend the money on just a new drive with more storage capacity.
[15:00] <something323> well the problemis that I was already trying to fix an overlapping partition in partitionmagic when the computer froze, so not its even more screwed up
[15:00] <something323> now*
[15:00] <litropy> mojtaba, but you're getting ahead of yourself. Try reormatting it and see how it goes.
[15:01] <litropy> something323, eek.
[15:01] <neworder> hi guys
[15:02] <neworder> I changed the colors of my terminal
[15:02] <neworder> I don't know how to reset it
[15:02] <neworder> Any help pls
[15:02] <mojtaba> litropy: Thanks
[15:02] <MonkeyDust> neworder  Edit > profile preferences
[15:02] <something323> but I am still getting this problem in gparted where the "command gpart was not found"
[15:02] <n-iCe> was svn package removed?!
[15:02] <n-iCe> E: Unable to locate package svn
[15:03] <something323> something is wrong with me repo somehow, It must be long outdated if no one knows how to fix it
[15:03] <Pici> n-iCe: its called subversion
[15:03] <neworder> MonkeyDust: There's no option to reset it =)
[15:05] <litropy> neworder, what color do you want the background to be, also what color do you want the text to be
[15:05] <something323> ok so its this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gpart&searchon=names&suite=quantal&section=all
[15:06] <litropy> neworder, and what are both of those now
[15:06] <something323> it looks old, but how can I install it anyway
[15:07] <jakesahir> i have ubuntu 12.10 installed on virtual box but inside vbox internet is not working ..
[15:07] <neworder> Lol, I can set those myself right? =)
[15:07] <something323> it says gpart has no installation candidate
[15:08] <MonkeyDust> neworder  you can, in profile preferences
[15:08] <jakesahir> i have ubuntu 12.10 installed on virtual box but inside vbox internet is not working ..
[15:08] <litropy> neworder, ya. Isn't that what you're trying to do?
[15:08] <neworder> hmm, I'm trying to reset it actually
[15:08] <neworder> I changed the colors
[15:09] <wilee-nilee> jakesahir, Do you have the network from a right click on the tiny screens at the bottom ticked?
[15:09] <neworder> and I wanted it back to its default
[15:09] <MonkeyDust> neworder  not sure what you mean by reset colours
[15:09] <neworder> back to the default settings
[15:09] <wilee-nilee> jakesahir, Cable connected.
[15:09] <neworder> the original settings
[15:10] <mojtaba> litropy: I formatted the hard drive "ext4" and it is not showing at all in /media path
[15:10] <mojtaba> Do you know what should I do?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> mojtaba: can you manually mount it?
[15:11] <aneks> neworder, in profile preferences, colors, choose use colors from the system theme
[15:11] <mojtaba> ActionParsnip: How can I mount it? (I am new to linux. could you please help me?)
[15:12] <neworder> Hmm thanks
[15:12] <bitbyte> any of you guys any good with noip2 client ?
[15:13] <neworder> Although I was looking for a reset button to change the colors on the color pallete too
[15:13] <bitbyte> I'm looking to try and setup a cron task to run it
[15:13] <aneks> neworder, np.
[15:13] <bitbyte> as it dosnt seem to automatically run every 30 mins on its own
[15:14] <aneks> neworder, if you choose use colors from the system theme it will go back to how it was.
[15:14] <aneks> neworder, unless you did something else.
[15:14] <neworder> haha you are right
[15:14] <ubuntu_> Evening all.
[15:14] <neworder> confused myself :P
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> neworder  why are you struggling like this? it's a lot easier to choose your own colours
[15:14] <neworder> Yup yup
[15:14]  * churnd scratches head
[15:15] <neworder> thanks
[15:15] <ubuntu_> I have a quick question. Is it possible to install a fully working copy of Ubuntu onto a USB Stick?
[15:15] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu_  you mean a persistent install?
[15:15] <litropy> ubuntu_ yes
[15:15] <bitbyte> any one any good with the noip2 client
[15:15] <wilee-nilee> ubuntu_, Yes use the something other option in the install gui and manually install it.
[15:15] <ubuntu_> Yeah, a persistent install so that I dont have to click on Try Me everytime I boot and so I can install stuff.
[15:16] <MonkeyDust> !persistent | ubuntu_
[15:16] <wilee-nilee> ubuntu_, You will still get that with a persistent.
[15:16] <ubuntu_> Oh, so, I cant install things like flash to this USB stick I made?
[15:17] <wilee-nilee> ubuntu_, How big is the stick?
[15:17] <ubuntu_> 4GB
[15:17] <ubuntu_> I used the LinuxPendriveinstaller to make this stick I am using now.
[15:18] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu_  no, that's enough for a live installation
[15:18] <wilee-nilee> ubuntu_, Please use nicks always. ;) A persistent install has a casper-rw file that fills up after awhile and is basically uncleanable it has limited use, a kernel upgrade can brick it as well. However you can have flash.
[15:19] <bitbyte> any one in here any good at making cron schedules or know any good guides, I'm looking to run the noip2 client every 30 mins as the client its self for some reason dosnt run and I've found nothing in the /var/syslog
[15:19] <ubuntu_> OKay, so it looks like what I have now is the best I will get then.

[15:23] <ayc> hi...  i cant see "hardware configuration tool" ... why?
[15:24] <ayc> ??
[15:25] <Kakera> wilee-nilee: and what exactly does your line do?
[15:25] <wilee-nilee> Kakera, which one?
[15:25] <Kakera> the sed one
[15:26] <wilee-nilee> Kakera, It populates the startup applications, it is empty on install, inspite of there being stuff auto starting.
[15:26] <Kakera> and how is that going to help, exactly?
[15:27] <wilee-nilee> Kakera, It answers your question "how do you set a startup application's working directory?"
[15:27] <ayc> wilee, are you alone answering questions?
[15:28] <wilee-nilee> no
[15:28] <ayc> ok, could you please help me?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> ayc: what are you wanting to achieve?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> ayc: why do you need a hardware config tool?
[15:29] <ayc> thanks... I cant see "Hardware configuration tool"

[15:32] <ayc> ActionParsnip, did u readed?
[15:34] <CatKiller> Anybody noticed something weird on Ubuntu's 12.04 terminal? If you do "ctrl-s" while on a SSH session the terminal window or tab completely blocks. you need to close it and reopen one
[15:35] <CatKiller> If you do the same, but while *not* logged in on SSH, using "ctrl-c" fixes the problem (or if you also pressed "d" after "ctrl-s" it closes the window)
[15:36] <llutz> CatKiller: usually ctrl-q is used the release the terminal after ctrl-s
[15:36] <ayc> anyone could help me?
[15:36] <mzaza> I have folder created as read only and I can't delete it even if i use sudo. any ideas?
[15:36] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, Where is it?
[15:36] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: Downloads folder, in home directory.
[15:37] <wilee-nilee> and what is it
[15:37] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: cann't remove "ready only file system"
[15:38] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: It was a directory I create and tried to extract iso to it and i remember using the commoand mount.
[15:38] <llutz> resume*
[15:38] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, You can run gksudo nautilus to get to root and navigate from file in the left column and delete it, however if you do not set the root preferences to bypass trash it will be there, and be difficult to remove.
[15:38] <CatKiller> llutz: Thanks! I'll try that. What is "ctrl-s" for anyways?
[15:39] <llutz> CatKiller: xon/xoff, software flow control
[15:39] <bitbyte> does any one know how i would tell noip2 to write to a file every time its run a sync
[15:39] <CatKiller> llutz: It worked! Thanks! :) Amazing because it often made me close a terminal with unsaved work
[15:39] <CatKiller> llutz: Good to know, thanks! :0
[15:39] <CatKiller> :)
[15:39] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, Have you tried to unmount it?
[15:39] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: How can I unmount a directory?
[15:40] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, NOt sure how did you mount it?
[15:40] <ayc> HIIIII
[15:40] <Kakera> philinux: doesn't work for autostart
[15:40] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /media/iso
[15:40] <philinux> Kakera: shame that then
[15:40] <bitbyte> should be able to just sudo mount /media/iso
[15:40] <bitbyte> thats right isn't it ?
[15:41] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  about virtual machine manager: it's an unstable experimental project, i tried it for testing purposes
[15:41] <icedwater> Hey guys, I'm working on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch and I have a NO_PUBKEY error with extras.ubuntu.com. How do I get the GPG key?
[15:41] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: I'll stick then with  Virtualbox, thanks :)
[15:41] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, Not completely certain on unmount to be honest. ;)
[15:42] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: Do you have any idea on how to unmount a folder
[15:42] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: Thanks :)
[15:42] <deathjester> Im looking at getting a raspberry Pi to run a linux box. Anyone got a RPi yet?
[15:42] <COMP321> hiya
[15:42] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  basically with umount, but you may try fuser -m
[15:43] <llutz> deathjester: runs fine using rasbian. there is no ubuntu for pi
[15:43] <Kakera> how do you set a startup application's working directory? (cd /host/Dropbox/Documents/Python && python my_script.py) doesn't work
[15:43] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  ehm, a folder, you say? i meant a device
[15:44] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: It was a folder, umount did work. Thanks :) Last question :D
[15:44] <deathjester> I heard they were working on a Ubuntu for the RPi
[15:44] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: Do you know how to extract or burn a windows ISO of flash drive under Ubuntu?
[15:44] <mzaza> wilee-nilee: umount worked, umount foldername
[15:45] <aneks> mzaza, umount is usually the opposite of mount :)
[15:45] <MonkeyDust> deathjester  better go to #ubuntu-offtopic, i guess http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4379
[15:45] <bitbyte> noip2
[15:46] <zscaler> a.
[15:46] <wilee-nilee> mzaza, I figured it would, just never have been in the sistuation.
[15:46] <mzaza> aneks: Yes, I was trying unmount which was more logical for me and it didn't exist :D
[15:46] <llutz> deathjester: just a tipp if you are going to buy a rpi: buy 2, they tend to die young
[15:46] <icedwater> OK, found it in Software Sources under Software Center.. now I need to find the file it is loading so I don't have to resort to that monstrosity again.
[15:47] <MonkeyDust> mzaza  i'm not very familiar with that OS
[15:47] <ayc> Can i get help on this channel?
[15:47] <GRIM-Server> Is there anyone that wants to try and help me get the wifi working on my acer aspire one zg5
[15:47] <MonkeyDust> ayc  if you're sweet
[15:47] <GRIM-Server> It was working then started dropping
[15:47] <GRIM-Server> Now it wont even connect at all
[15:47] <ayc> ok, please
[15:48] <ayc> i cant see hardware configuration tool... how i can do that? (my english is poor, sorry i f i write bad)
[15:49] <Kakera> bash -c "cd /path/to/directory && /path/to/directory/executable" did the trick
[15:49] <ayc> im using ubuntu studio
[15:49] <Kakera> although it's kinda ugly
[15:50] <ayc> MonkeyDust????
[15:50] <mzaza> MonkeyDust: Thanks :) I wont use it, I just need to burn it for someone. Thanks anway, i found a tool called winusb which should do that.
[15:51] <MonkeyDust> ayc  try #ubuntu-studio
[15:51] <ayc> thanks!!
[15:52] <deathjester> So, these changes I am making to firefox now, will they presist when I restart my PC?
[15:52] <deathjester> Like, adding extensions to firefox?
[15:52] <MonkeyDust> ayc  nobody there, what do you mean by hardware configuration, what do you want to configure?
[15:53] <olivier__> I can't wait for Ubuntu Touch to come out. If I buy a Nexus now I won't have the nice docking and desktop convergence features right?
[15:53] <MonkeyDust> !touch | olivier__

[15:55] <llutz> deathjester: you use an installation of ubuntu or live-media?
[15:55] <deathjester> Im running from a USB Stick
[15:55] <mzaza> It's better to use apt-get purge while removing packages, to delete unnecessary files. right?
[15:55] <lufi> deathjester: you are soo hardcore
[15:56] <bitbyte> hey guys I'm trying to follow the monitoring the status of noip2, via : http://www.coulterfamily.org.uk/pages/PCs/Linux/FAQ-LINUX-NO-IP-CLIENT.php
[15:56] <deathjester> lufi I know. :)
[15:56] <aneks> sprezzatura, yes it does.
[15:56] <bitbyte> when it says a script is produced do you have any idea what i should put the script as
[15:56]  * lufi im running from me mind
[15:56] <BluesKaj> mzaza, if you never plan on using the packages again , then yes.
[15:56] <mzaza> BluesKaj: Thanks :)

[16:06] <icedwater> GRIM-Server: what seems to be the problem?
[16:06] <GRIM-Server> Well it worked for a few days. Then got flaky, now it doesnt work at all suddenly
[16:09] <reggie_> hey folks
[16:10] <reggie_> have questions regarding a DNS issue
[16:11] <TLM> anyone know a terminal command that'll shut down the computer if anyone presses a key except one that i specify?
[16:12] <reggie_> wow lol TLM I would love to know this command as well
[16:13] <Marhabah> Hi Guys
[16:13] <DARKING> Hi
[16:13] <reggie_> hey
[16:13] <Marhabah> :)
[16:13] <j2daosh> hey all. i'm having a weird bug with unity. if i log into the gui, then switch to the f1 console, log in, run some generic commands (ls, ps -ef, etc) and then try to switch back to the gui, it never comes back. it just turns off the monitor signal (monitor light goes from green to amber) and i can't get the gui back unless i init 6. anyone else had this problem before?
[16:14] <reggie_> does anyone know how to modify resolv.conf
[16:14] <j2daosh> reggie_: vim /etc/resolv.conf ?
[16:16] <Pumpkin-> TLM: sounds like would actually need to write a program to do that (and it is a bit odd)
[16:16] <Pumpkin-> you could so something super primitive like "read -n 1 C; if [ $C != "x" ]; then echo foo; fi" (replacing echo foo with something like halt)
[16:17] <Pumpkin-> but you can totally cheat that by switching to a different terminal, or just CTRL-C'ing it
[16:17] <j2daosh> also, I am trying to setup a samba share on my ubuntu that i can access on my windows machine. I installed samba, created the share directive in smb.conf but my windows cant access it. anyone have a tutorial for setting up a samba share?
[16:17] <reggie_> j2daosh: here is the problem
[16:17] <j2daosh> https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/samba-fileserver.html that one doesn't work out so well
[16:18] <reggie_> the file isn't located there, it is located in /etc/ppp/resolv.conf
[16:18] <j2daosh> ok, so vim that?
[16:19] <reggie_> j2daosh: not really familiar with VIM but familiar with nano
[16:19] <reggie_> so nanoed that :)
[16:19] <j2daosh> whatever works lol
[16:21] <reggie_> cool j2daosh so this box sits within a windows domain and I have added: nameserver windows server IP
[16:21] <reggie_> but no cigar
[16:21] <cvance> Hello folks, I am having a problem. I burned a copy of the ubuntu 12.04.1 iso (and verified the md5sum). I am trying to boot my desktop into the cd in uefi mode. I am running an ASUS P8Z77-V Pro/Thunderbolt motherboard. When I select the UEFI cd entry in my boot menu, the screen goes blank for a moment then just continues to the Windows boot loader. Halp please
[16:21] <j2daosh> im not sure what the original problem was, i came in at the point you were asking how to modify it
[16:21] <reggie_> j2daosh: also added: search name of domain
[16:22] <reggie_> ohh ok so at this point if I try to reach my spam appliance I cannot get to it unless I enter ip address, so box ot resolving hostnames
[16:22] <reggie_> not*
[16:22] <j2daosh> oh, well if the IP won't change, you can add the entry into the hosts file
[16:23] <j2daosh> vim /etc/hosts
[16:23] <j2daosh> or nano
[16:23] <reggie_> j2daosh: can I copy the resolv.conf file outside of the /ppp direcotry
[16:23] <reggie_> so straight into the /etc/ directory
[16:24] <j2daosh> you could, but i dont know if it will have any affect on anything. if it was put in ppp on install, i would imagine there is a reason for that and if it is somewhere else, it might not pick up config changes from the non-original file
[16:24] <reggie_> okay it's blank guessing the file may not be there or doesnt exist ? j2daosh
[16:25] <j2daosh> just add the spam appliance IP to the /etc/hosts file. if you dont have one of those, do 'updatedb;locate hosts'
[16:25] <b80905> how do i block access to my computer for 1 month?
[16:25] <j2daosh> unplug it
[16:25] <lancien> lol
[16:26] <lancien> b80905,  maybe if configure iptable to block all
[16:26] <mstenta> Hey all, I'm looking for some advice… I would like to create an encrypted (via TrueCrypt) USB Drive that contains a VirtualBox image. I'd like to be able to load the VM on either a Mac or a Linux laptop… but I'm not sure if it's possible due to filesystem incompatabilities…. do you think it's possible?
[16:27] <j2daosh> b80905: it depends on what access you are trying to block.
[16:27] <b80905> j2daosh: so i would not be able to use it
[16:27] <mstenta> The main issue seems to be: I can create a FAT32 TrueCrypt partition that is accessible on both Mac and Linux, but it doesn't allow files larger than 4GB… but the VirtualBox image will need to be larger than that.
[16:27] <j2daosh> mstenta: if you make it FAT, it should work on any
[16:27] <reggie_> ok lol I'm too much of a windows user I forgot to add .conf after the host j2daosh
[16:28] <mstenta> j2daosh: thanks, that's what i figured too… see my second comment above
[16:28] <reggie_> so I'm in the file now there isn't much in there
[16:28] <lancien> mstenta,  4 why not? i dont think it's easy to make this with truecrypt but when you install your vm you could crypt her with LVM maybe
[16:28] <j2daosh> mstenta: no idea. you will have to find a compatible FS for both (maybe EXT3) and give it a shot
[16:28] <j2daosh> reggie_: huh? hosts is hosts, not hosts.conf... i dont know what file you just editted
[16:29] <reggie_> lol I haven't done anything to the file yet
[16:29] <j2daosh> then where did the .conf come from?
[16:30] <MonkWitDaFunk> !hardware
[16:30] <wilee-nilee> cvance, Have you looked at the uefi wiki?
[16:30] <reggie_> actually looking through the /etc directory and I'm seeing host, host.conf host.allow hostname host.deny j2daosh
[16:30] <j2daosh> do a more on host
[16:30] <reggie_> huh
[16:31] <aneks> reggie_, /etc/hosts ?
[16:31] <reggie_> all I did was sudo nano host
[16:31] <reggie_> should I add more at the end of the command?
[16:31] <j2daosh> do you see something along the lines of ip [tab] hostname?
[16:31] <reggie_> aneks: ?
[16:32] <aneks> reggie_, the file is /etc/hosts not /etc/host
[16:32] <reggie_> lol ohh crap
[16:32] <reggie_> ok much better
[16:32] <aneks> :)
[16:33]  * j2daosh bangs head on desk
[16:33] <reggie_> thanks aneks I would have been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out
[16:33] <reggie_> lol easy j2daosh I am trying to learn here
[16:33] <aneks> reggie_, lol no worries
[16:33] <reggie_> I'm a windows admin trying to learn linux
[16:33] <j2daosh> wasn't meant for you
[16:33] <reggie_> bear with me
[16:34] <j2daosh> some request that just came in... makes me wanna strangle people
[16:34] <reggie_> okay I understand, thanks for your patience j2daosh aneks
[16:35] <j2daosh> np. been in your position before.
[16:35] <reggie_> so j2daosh I'm in the file and I'm seeing a few things do you want me to pastebin or???
[16:35] <j2daosh> this file is exactly like c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/host
[16:35] <reggie_> would this be the place to add the dns server info
[16:36] <j2daosh> so just add the spam servers IP in their, alias the name and your good
[16:36] <aneks> reggie_, just add ip address hostname
[16:36] <aneks> that's all the info that goes into /etc/hosts
[16:37] <reggie_> okay but I have like 20 other devices including firewalls is there an easier way of adding my win dns servers or should I build a linux VM box to handle dns info
[16:37] <j2daosh> so if i wanted my computer to ping <IP_ADDRESS> by doing 'ping windowslicker', i would put in the hosts file '<IP_ADDRESS> [tab] windowlicker'
[16:38] <llutz> j2daosh: which will fail because windowslicker != windowlicker   ;)
[16:38] <j2daosh> reggie_: 'locate resolv.conf' see where that file is located
[16:38] <j2daosh> llutz: i only make typos in irc
[16:38] <j2daosh> everywhere else, i'm perfect
[16:38] <j2daosh> :P
[16:38] <reggie_> okay so when I run locate it is giving me a few differnt locations
[16:39] <j2daosh> are any in /etc
[16:39] <reggie_> j2daosh:
[16:39] <reggie_> /etc/ppp/resolv.conf
[16:39] <reggie_> /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d
[16:39] <reggie_> /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base
[16:39] <reggie_> /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head
[16:39] <FloodBot1> reggie_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:39] <reggie_> whoops sorry
[16:40] <llutz> !resolv.conf | reggie_ don't edit that file manually
[16:40] <j2daosh> well damn, thats a new one on me
[16:41] <j2daosh> follow his info. i feel mine is slightly outdated
[16:41] <reggie_> thanks llutz and ubottu I will give this a read
[16:42] <cvance> I am having problems booting ubuntu on my uefi desktop. I installed it successfully in the past and had it running, but now the system doesn't boot. Additionally when I burned another livecd and booted it in uefi, it also fails (and jumps straight into my Windows 7 install.) I don't get to the grub menu, the system displays a blinking cursor for a moment and then moves right to Windows.
[16:43] <aneks> cvance, did you try booting into your live cd, installing boot-repair and running it? It'll probably fix your issue.
[16:43] <wilee-nilee> cvance, You might want to use the ubuntu forums, the channel is not really uefi educated in general.
[16:43] <Artpicre> Hello
[16:45] <pentagonpie> is there any firewall working in mint by default?
[16:45] <llutz> !mint  | pentagonpie we don't know
[16:45] <wilee-nilee> cvance, Manufacturers have different versions so it is a bit of a hit and miss on exacting info, and sometimes the bootrepair tool is needed to rewrite file names.
[16:46] <pentagonpie> ubottu: ok, thanks
[16:46] <pentagonpie> ok, thanks
[16:47] <aneks> cvance, did you try booting into your live cd, installing boot-repair and running it? It'll probably fix your issue.
[16:49] <reggie_> thanks for your help j2daosh
[16:49] <cvance_> aneks: I cannot boot into the livecd for some reason. I don't even get into the grub menu.
[16:50] <aneks> cvance_, I wasn't talking about grub. I meant, change the boot sequence so it boots from the cd, and then choose try ubuntu. Once you're in there you can install boot-repair.
[16:50] <cvance_> aneks: I manually select the CD from my boot menu but it doesn't even get to the grub prompt (of the livecd)
[16:51] <aneks> cvance_, you manually select it? if your boot sequence is set to read from the cd/dvd it will boot into the live cd by itself.
[16:54] <CKLMN> anyone has experience with DES_ncbc_encrypt??
[16:55] <cvance_> aneks: I think we have a little miscommunication, let me rephrase. I have a UEFI motherboard and have windows 7 installed in UEFI mode. I burned a livecd and pressed F8 at the uefi prompt to enter a device boot selection menu. I have a few options (UEFI windows 7 boot loader, UEFI old ubuntu installation, UEFI livecd, and legacy options). When I select UEFI livecd, the screen goes blank for a moment and just kicks me to Windows.
[16:57] <aneks> cvance_, it seems like it's not reading your live cd.
[16:58] <cvance_> aneks: md5sum is correct, let me try again in legacy mode to verify that it's something about UEFI that's screwy, brb

[17:06] <levhita> Anyone?
[17:06] <OerHeks> !nomodeset
[17:08] <aneks> lehvita, also, I had the same issue and it had nothing to do with nomodeset. All it was is that Ubuntu installed grub onto my other hard disk. Choosing that hard drive as my first boot option fixed it.
[17:08] <ubuntuaddicted> hi guys, my network-manager isn't running and my eth0 is a SiS900 ethernet controller and it isn't working in 12.04.2, can anyone help me?

[17:10] <ubuntuaddicted> i did a sudo service network-manager start and my system seems to have brought up the ethernet connection but it's frozen, i can't even ctrl-alt-f1, any suggestions of how to unfreeze?
[17:10] <wilee-nilee> levhita, Your graphic drivers from the ubuntu repo or the manufacturer?
[17:10] <levhita> manufacturer
[17:11] <wilee-nilee> levhita, A kernel upgrade will break them, the repos are a better option if they work.
[17:11] <levhita> it get stuck in text login, and when i login it goes black again and to the login again
[17:11] <MonkeyDust> micadeyeye  better contact the maintainer of the ppa
[17:12] <billions> is it possible that the 32bit installer will not boot at all on a 64bit system?
[17:12] <wilee-nilee> billions, Should.
[17:12] <levhita> +1 billions
[17:12] <ubuntuaddicted> is there anyway to unfreeze a system safely besides hard rebooting?
[17:12] <minas> i have ubuntu connected to a network in which other pcs running windows are connected as well. My pc's internet speed is good, but it's really slow on all the windows pcs. If I disconnect mine from the network, the problem goes away and their connections becomes fast again. What's going on?
[17:12] <seedo> Hello, I want to mount my usb modem in ubuntu as a mass storage (To access the ROM contents), please help how to do it.
[17:12] <wilee-nilee> !reisub | ubuntuaddicted
[17:13] <billions> see, that's what I thought, but the biitdisk works on a 32bit atom but not on the 64bit system that I am trying it on
[17:13] <billions> so it definitely is not the us drive that's wonky… after all I used the same drive an hour go to install the 64bit version
[17:13] <billions> and the reason why I want to test the 32bit version is because the 64bit version feels so sluggish
[17:14] <DX099> hello !
[17:14] <DX099> where do i report about strange/worrysome behaviours ?
[17:15] <ubuntuaddicted> wilee-nilee, thanks but that didnt' work
[17:15] <wilee-nilee> ubuntuaddicted, Than it is frozen.
[17:15] <seedo> Hello, anyone know how to mount USB Modem as a mass storage device (to read the rom contents?)
[17:16] <ubuntuaddicted> i just hard rebooted it. my network isn't being brought up during boot, where do i start to troubleshoot?
[17:17] <nothung> I'm not able to mount my USB DVD drive
[17:18] <nothung> I used "sudo lshw -short" and see that the drive is listed as /dev/cdrom
[17:18] <nothung> but when I try "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt", I get the error "mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0"
[17:18] <ubuntuaddicted> how do i troubleshoot why my ethernet card isn't working, my network isn't starting at boot up
[17:19] <wilee-nilee> nothung, What happens if you put a disc in?
[17:20] <nothung> wilee-nilee: ok, I'm trying, I have the USB DVD drive plugged in, opened it and put in an audio CD
[17:21] <genii-around> nothung: Audio CD don't really have a filesystem
[17:21] <ubuntuaddicted> looking at my dmesg, it says the ethernet card was not ready
[17:21] <wilee-nilee> ubuntuaddicted, Did you try a second reboot?
[17:22] <wilee-nilee> or a reboot
[17:22] <nothung> wilee-nilee: that didn't work, "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt" still failed
[17:22] <nothung> genii-around: how would I play the audio CD then?
[17:22] <wilee-nilee> nothung, does the disc show on the dektop?
[17:23] <seedo> :q
[17:23] <wilee-nilee> nothung, You have the correct usb some need a double one for power.
[17:23] <nothung> wilee-nilee: don't see anything on the desktop, Ubuntu automounts USB hard drives and flash drives just fine.  I'm running amd64 version of Ubuntu 12.04 LtS
[17:23] <genii-around> nothung: Usually gvfs sort of translates it on-the-fly to your music player or file browser
[17:24] <ubuntuaddicted> wilee-nilee, yes, it's not brining up the SiS900 ethernet card
[17:24] <nothung> wilee-nilee: yes, I do have the double USB plugged into a power USB hub
[17:24] <nothung> wilee-nilee: I don't know if using a hub is a problem
[17:25] <wilee-nilee> nothung, Check that the power may need to be plugged directly to the computer
[17:25] <nothung> wilee-nilee: ah, I tried a non-audio CD and automount worked
[17:26] <billions> so I'm running 12.04 and when I scroll the screen cannot refresh quick enough, so it stutters. Is this normal?  I am running the restricted nvidia drivers btw
[17:27] <ubuntuaddicted> during boot up i noticed it said it was starting a virtual network connection at eth0 and that eth0 was renamed to eth1, i see in dmesg that the SiS900 ethernet card is being seen
[17:27] <ubuntuaddicted> not sure where to go from here?
[17:27] <wilee-nilee> nothung, It is working then to play the audio open a player and search for the disc, and make sure to try several discs
[17:27] <ubuntuaddicted> last time I enabled network-manager my system froze
[17:27] <OerHeks> ubuntuaddicted, why did you rename eth0 to eth1 ?
[17:28] <Kenjiro> good afternoon
[17:28] <Kenjiro> guys, I am having problems to update a server running 12.04. Everything seemed to go fine, but slapd.
[17:29] <Kenjiro> I issue "apt-get dist-upgrade" and it gives me this: http://pastebin.ca/2362223
[17:30] <Kenjiro> I noticed it moves the content of /var/lib/ldap/ to /var/backup/dc=nodomain-2.4.25-1.1ubuntu4.1.ldapdb
[17:30] <Kenjiro> but then... what should I do?
[17:30] <ubuntuaddicted> OerHeks, i didn't, i removed splash and quiet so I could see the messages during boot up and I noticed that message during boot up. where are those messages stored because I can't find it in syslog, kern.log, or dmesg
[17:30] <mackg> Hello Folks!
[17:30] <ChogyDan> Kenjiro: you may want to try #ubuntu-server as well
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> Kenjiro: tried making the folder in the error manually?
[17:31] <Kenjiro> ChogyDan: ok thanks for that tip
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> Kenjiro: are there bugs reported?
[17:32] <Kenjiro> ActionParsnip: if only I knew which content it expects to find in dc=nodomain.ldif
[17:32] <Kenjiro> I have a dump of my ldap db, in LDIF format.
[17:32] <nothung> wilee-nilee, I tried several audio CDs but they didn't work and RhythmBox didn't find them.  Is there a better audio program?
[17:32] <Kenjiro> so I tried copying that dump to the file it complains... but that didn't help
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> Kenjiro : doesn't matter. The error is that it doesn't exist. Use a blank file or empty directory
[17:33] <Kenjiro> hmmmm will try a blank file, hold on
[17:33] <wilee-nilee> nothung, Personally I use vlc almost always
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Nothung: try totem or vlc
[17:33] <ubuntuaddicted> OerHeks, ok, i found the message, this is what shows during boot up. [   32.950647] udevd[452]: renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
[17:33] <Kenjiro> WTF! that seems to work
[17:33] <wilee-nilee> better is  a personal thing. ;)
[17:33] <Kenjiro> LOL
[17:34] <holymacaroons> Hello Ubunturs, I'm the Amazon Web Services page and I'm going to get a Ubuntu server. What's the difference between the regular ubuntu server and a cloud instance?
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> Kenjiro : you humour the system :-)
[17:34] <holymacaroons> I'm on the*
[17:34] <ubuntuaddicted> OerHeks, i also see the following http://pastebin.com/mSnJmGqJ
[17:34] <ubuntuaddicted> can anyone help me figure out why my SiS900 ethernet controller and network aren't starting at boot up?
[17:35] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: check/change MAC in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted: can you make it work with manual intervention
[17:36] <xdm2> WHA420355
[17:36] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, last time I started network-manager it froze my computer
[17:37] <xdm2> SOC155694
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : try wicd instead :-)
[17:37] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, ok, but it didn't freeze this time and it worked. So now the question is how to get it to work after a reboot without manual intervention
[17:37] <nothung> ActionParsnip, thanks for the tip
[17:38] <nothung> wilee-nilee, I tried inserting the audio CD while VLC was running and that did the trick
[17:38] <xdm2> YMH297433
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : what do you do to make it work ?
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2: please don't
[17:38] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, all I did was sudo service network-manager start
[17:38] <nothung> wilee-nilee, I wonder why it was so difficult to get Ubuntu to recognize my audio CD.  Should I submit a bug report?
[17:39] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, BUT i also just noticed that its eth1 NOT eth0 which per my interfaces file says it should be a static IP but currently it's eth1 and DHCP so it's got the wrong IP
[17:39] <xdm2> system on chip with linux or bsd ?
[17:39] <wilee-nilee> nothung, Not sure to be honest, rhythmbox can be a little funky though, it might be a plugin thing.
[17:39] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: check/change MAC in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : could add thst in /etc/rc.local above the 'exit 0' line
[17:40] <holymacaroons> What's the difference between a Cluster Instance and the Regular Ubuntu server on Amazon Web Services?
[17:40] <xdm2> ethernet driver maybe
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2: what is your question please?
[17:41] <wilee-nilee> nothung, Look in system-settings type default and choose details you might see options there.
[17:41] <xdm2> ubuntu linux in system on chip filesystem requirement
[17:41] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, why would i need to check/change that?
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Holymacaroons: ask in #ubuntu-server too
[17:42] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: is the MAC in that file correct? that file makes udev renaming network-ifaces
[17:42] <wilee-nilee> nothung, Look at removable media.
[17:42] <nothung> wilee-nilee, hmm well I just tried running Rhythmbox and inserting the audio CD and it was recognized.  So I guess you have to have an audio program open and then insert the audio CD.  I would have expected the audio CD to be recognized without having an audio program open.
[17:42] <wilee-nilee> in details
[17:42] <emx> i bought a blu ray disc and i don't know how to play it with vlc :P what do i need to choose? open disc or open directory?
[17:42] <emx> if it is a directory: which one?
[17:42] <nothung> wilee-nilee, yes, I"m in details of the system settings panel
[17:43] <Kenjiro> ActionParsnip: I have another problem, now on another server, regarding postgresql, but I wll ask on ubuntu-server then
[17:43] <Kenjiro> ActionParsnip: really thanks
[17:43] <nothung> wilee-nilee, all the settings are "ask what to do"
[17:44] <xdm2> mysql maybe more little space than postgresql
[17:44] <wilee-nilee> nothung, It has been awhile since I used my external reader so you can try options, not sure the default
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> Emx: www.omgubuntu.co.uk/tag/bluray/?wpmp_switcher=mobile?wpmp_switcher=mobile
[17:45] <wilee-nilee> nothung, It has a rhythmbox choice though.
[17:46] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, i think i know what happened. i basically swapped my OS install and hard drives to new hardware thus a new ethernet controller and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules shows eth0 MAC as something else. NOT what iconfig shows for eth1. So how do I fix it?
[17:46] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: change the MAC to your needs or simply remove that file and reboot, it will be created
[17:47] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, ok, i'll try to just remove the file and reboot. is that ok you're saying?
[17:47] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: it should be ok, yes.
[17:47] <xdm2> WHA800477
[17:47] <llutz> xdm2: stop spamming please
[17:48] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, ok, i just moved /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules to my desktop and rebooted, hopefully it's fixed and it brings up my network during bootup
[17:48] <xdm2> ubuntu server or desktop regular linux instalation look advance
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2 : how do you mean "look advance"?
[17:49] <xdm2> ubuntu desktop better than other like redhat or fedora
[17:50] <priyav> hi guys!!
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2 : in your opinion. ...
[17:50] <xdm2> halo
[17:50] <priyav> :)
[17:50] <xdm2> linux ubuntu start good and graphic look nice and little
[17:50] <priyav> i'm new to this whole ubuntu business! any cool things for me to check out?
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2 : is this leading to a question?
[17:51] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, yeap, all good now. thanks
[17:51] <llutz>  <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, why would i need to check/change that?  <- now you have the answer
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> Priyav: I'd just use the OS and get used to it
[17:51] <zizi> hello!
[17:51] <xdm2> ubuntu business unlike redhat or fedora subscription more lesser look like
[17:52] <zizi> i just instaled virtualbox on my 12.04 64bit
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2 : if you want idle chat please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:52] <zizi> but i get an error
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Zizi: what is the error?
[17:52] <xdm2> ever use ubuntu rarely reboot or start again
[17:52] <nothung> wilee-nilee, I tried changing the default music application to VLC, but that didn't work.
[17:52] <priyav> thanks ActionParsnip
[17:53] <zizi> The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing  '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
[17:53] <zizi> sorry
[17:53] <nothung> wilee-nilee, I have a workaround solution, so that's good enough for now.  Thank you for your help!
[17:53] <xdm2> license on ubuntu look similar with other developer but multimedia service go on internet
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Zizi: Did you run the command given with sudo?
[17:54] <ubuntuaddicted> why did ubuntu move away from apt-get upgrade and instead I have to use dist-upgrade?
[17:54] <bekks> zizi: Did you do what the error suggests? :)
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : it didn't.  You can use both
[17:54] <zizi> yes i did but i get : command not found
[17:55] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: read the man-page about the difference
[17:55] <xdm2> in ubuntu linux wifi or bluetooth
[17:55] <tgm4883> ubuntuaddicted, they are for different situations
[17:55] <bekks> zizi: Then how did you install vbox?
[17:55] <zizi> software center
[17:55] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, ActionParsnip for example i changed a repository and used upgrade but that didn't trigger the new packages, i had to dist-upgrade for it work
[17:55] <xdm2> in campus center ubuntu look good seen by other
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> Xdm2 : the 2 technologies are completely different so picking between the two is nonsensical
[17:56] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: read the man-page about the difference, the new packages might depend on packages not already installed. those will be ignored by upgrade
[17:56] <tgm4883> ubuntuaddicted, you've always needed dist-upgrade to install new packages
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : Did you run: sudo apt-get update    after you added it
[17:56] <Quest> looks like ubuntu has no repository to install freepbx?
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> !info freepbx
[17:57] <zizi> i couldnt find any solution by my self
[17:57] <bekks> zizi: Uninstall vbox again and install the latest official version available from the official vbox website installation instructions.
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> Quest : looks like its not in the official repos
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> Quest : your question was also not a question but a statement
[17:58] <Quest> ActionParsnip,  it had a ? at the end
[17:58] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, yes, i always sudo apt-get update first
[17:58] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, you mean just throwing a question mark at the end doesn't make it a question?
[17:58] <zizi> i tried but i cant install it
[17:58] <Quest> ActionParsnip,  it had a ? at the end. it was for confirming
[17:58] <bekks> zizi: Why not?
[17:59] <zizi> Error: Violates existing package 'virtualbox' which collides with: 'virtualbox'. But the '/ home/zizi/Lipseis/virtualbox-4.2_4.2.12-84980 ~ Ubuntu ~ precise_amd64.deb', provide it through: 'virtualbox
[18:00] <zizi> but uninstalled the virtualbox
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> Zizi : try adding the virtualbox repo and then install
[18:00] <zizi> do you have a link?
[18:01] <ali4ever4> what is the best torrent client for ubuntu (better controls on spead and sharing)
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> Zizi : bit easier.  The virtualbox site has a how to
[18:01] <xdm2> virtualbox ever use but on ubuntu linux maybe run smooth work with other like netbsd or openbsd
[18:01] <billions> so let me get this straight, 32 bit ubuntu installer SHOULD boot on a 64bit system?
[18:01] <zizi> you mean the oracle site?
[18:01] <bekks> zizi: Correct.
[18:01] <tgm4883> billions, yes, in 99% of the cases
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> Ali4ever4: you can set max up and down speeds in transmission
[18:02] <billions> tgm4883: what would be that 1% case? because I get a "no  valid boot disk" error
[18:02] <wilee-nilee> !best > ali4ever4
[18:02] <xdm2> ubuntu linux transmission lost in disc disc ussually one or two dvd
[18:02] <billions> (although the usb disk works well on a different machine)
[18:02] <ali4ever4> ActionParsnip: the default app comming in ubuntu  ok will try it
[18:02] <rAg3nix> ali4ever4: qbittorrent , transmission , vize , utorrent .. any would do !!
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> Billions: I believe itaniums will only boot 64bit OS
[18:02] <MonkeyDust> billions  first try and it see what it does, no need to scare yourself
[18:03] <billions> MonkeyDust: see, that's what I mean, it does nothing
[18:03] <tgm4883> billions, sorry, 99.99999999999999999%
[18:03] <billions> I just get an error that it is not a valid boot disk, although that selfsame disk works perfectly with a different machine
[18:03] <ali4ever4> rAg3nix, thanks
[18:03] <tgm4883> billions, actually, I think the installer would still work, but you would get weird quarks happening.
[18:03] <billions> see tgm4883 that's what I was thinking too
[18:04] <tgm4883> billions, IIRC, it was just a few processors that didn't fully support the 32-bit stuff properly
[18:04] <billions> its probably something wonky with the installer disks
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Ali4ever4 : you can also set a time window to turn on an alternative speed limit
[18:04] <billions> good, now I know that it can be fixed, I can fix it :D
[18:04] <tgm4883> billions, that said, why not instal 64-bit?
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Billions: Did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[18:04] <mackg> I have a question: I installed 12.10 on a gigabyte board with i3 sandy bridge. installtion was smooth, boot, installed latest updates, reboot: black screen. Do you happen know something about that?
[18:04] <ubuntuaddicted> how to get a CIFS share to mount when the password contains illegal characters? I tried 'testin@1!' but that didnt' work
[18:04] <billions> tgm4883: firefox et al are so sluggish, I was hoping the 32bit version would have a smoother experience
[18:04] <bekks> !nomodeset > mackg
[18:04] <billions> ActionParsnip: the installer works on a different machine
[18:05] <MonkeyDust> billions  i always use 32 bit on my 64bit system, in fact, 64bit won't even boot in vbox
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Mackg: use the boot option : nomodeset
[18:05] <mackg> thx
[18:05] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, actually, Itaniums need Itanium disks, not the standard Ubuntu 64-bit disks
[18:05] <billions> MonkeyDust: it would be nice if I could get it to boot on my 64 bit system, too :)
[18:05] <xdm2> ubuntu linux filesystem ussually work with ext3 but not ext2 good journalling filesystem
[18:05] <ali4ever4> ActionParsnip, really , how can i do that ?!
[18:05] <tgm4883> billions, IDK why that would make sense, but it sounds like a bad burn or something
[18:05] <bekks> xdm2: ext2 isnt journaled. thats why.
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Monkeydust: it will if you have and have enabled the required CPU features :-)
[18:06] <tgm4883> MonkeyDust, 64-bit will boot in vbox
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> Ali4ever4 : its in settings
[18:06] <tgm4883> MonkeyDust, you do have to set the guest OS to 64-bit though
[18:06] <xdm2> journalling filesystem in ubuntu linux maybe look robust
[18:06] <ali4ever4> ActionParsnip, thanks
[18:06] <bekks> xdm2: Do you have any specific support question?
[18:07] <billions> just to be sure, this IS a 64-bit cpu right? http://ark.intel.com/products/49490
[18:07] <MonkeyDust> tgm4883  stick to support for our friend billions please :)
[18:07] <zizi> i get this
[18:07] <zizi>  No suitable module for running kernel found
[18:07] <llutz> billions: they say it is (check "grep ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo")
[18:07] <tgm4883> MonkeyDust, I am supporting billions, and correcting you. I can do both
[18:07] <bekks> zizi: And then it builds the kernel module needed, correct?
[18:08] <billions> ok lemme quickly see
[18:08] <zizi> nope
[18:08] <xdm2> to get dvd on ubuntu linux then burn with burner on campus and able to get office duty
[18:08] <bekks> zizi: If not, please pastebin the entire output, not just a single line
[18:08] <zizi> * Starting VirtualBox kernel modules                                            * No suitable module for running kernel found
[18:09] <bekks> zizi: Then build the kernel modules using sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[18:09] <billions> llutz: what am I looking for in the output?
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> Zizi : you need a space after the sudo word
[18:09] <llutz> billions: if you have output, its 64bit
[18:10] <billions> llutz: I do have output ad plenty
[18:10] <llutz> billions: "lm" flags are 64bit only (long mode)
[18:10] <billions> so in this case, running the 64-bit ubuntu is the sane thing to do? or will the 32bit vesion offer me some type of multimedia advantage?
[18:10] <ubuntuaddicted> i keep getting mount error(13): Permission Denied when trying to mount this CIFS share
[18:10] <llutz> billions: there is usually no benefit at all in running i386 on 64bit hardware
[18:11] <MonkeyDust> ubuntuaddicted  CIFS is similar to NFS, how do you try to mount it?
[18:11] <billions> llutz: check
[18:11] <ubuntuaddicted> MonkeyDust, using fstab entry BUT my password has illegal characters, example: testing@01!
[18:12] <MonkeyDust> ubuntuaddicted  then try with abc123 or so and change the password if needed
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : is it possible to specify a credentials file and use that?
[18:12] <ubuntuaddicted> MonkeyDust, thanks anyway, that's not the point.
[18:12] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: use:  testing\@01\!
[18:12] <zizi> again comand not found
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Zizi : Did you add the virtualbox repo?
[18:13] <llutz> zizi: ls -l /etc/init.d/vboxdrv
[18:14] <volkan> hello everyone, i did a fresh install for my pc, and took the copies of PGP keys
[18:14] <volkan> can I use them again?
[18:15] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, yes, I could do that. ok, yes, that worked
[18:15] <ubuntuaddicted> llutz, i just ended up using a .credentials file
[18:16] <llutz> ubuntuaddicted: better than a world-readable fstab-file
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : chmod it 600 to keep people out
[18:16] <ActionParsnip>  Ubuntuaddicted : owned by root of course
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Zizi : what is the output of : cat /etc/issue
[18:17] <dakotawulfy>  volkan same distro
[18:17] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, done, although i am at home and not to concerned about security and my box is NOT open to outside world.
[18:17] <bekks> zizi: Then pastebin (not into this channel) the entire command you are trying and its entire output.
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : its good practice but your call :-)
[18:18] <volkan> dakotawulfy: yes it is the same
[18:18] <ubuntuaddicted> ActionParsnip, no, i still made it root owned and chmod 600. thanks
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuaddicted : no worries,  we both learned today :-)
[18:19] <volkan> dakotawulfy: i messed up the pulseaudio and needed to do a fresh install :s
[18:19] <baloo1986> Hello

[18:20] <ali4ever4> hey any success stories of running ubuntu on raspberry Pi
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> Baloo1986: I doubt there is a PPC skype client
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> Ali4ever4 : loads
[18:20] <shojo> er... "How can a friend find the password for his rooter?" would probably sound like i am asking for myself too so...
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> Baloo1986 : you can run chat clients for text chat with skype
[18:21] <wilee-nilee> shojo, Run the reset and make a new one, or contact the provider, or manufacturer.
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> Shojo: I'd try in ##networking
[18:22] <baloo1986> what? Sorry but i dont understand ???
[18:22] <tasslehoff> is there a dedicated channel for mactel?
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> Baloo1986 : what you are doing now, you can do that with skype users
[18:22] <shojo> thank you!
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> Baloo1986 : you type, they type back

[18:26] <ActionParsnip> Tasslehoff: #ubuntu+1 for Raring support please
[18:26] <dakotawulfy> volkan u can use all the repos and keys if u have them
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Tasslehoff : Raring is EOL before Quantal is too, just a friendly fyi

[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Sungyo: #ubuntu+1 for Raring support please
[18:33] <sungyo> thants ;)
[18:33] <dakotawulfy> volkan go to settings in synaptic
[18:33] <dakotawulfy> volkan then go to authentication

[18:34] <ActionParsnip> Sungyo : is that the same ilk as thoctor :-)
[18:34] <zampouras> hello, my webcam is not working could somebody give me a hint?
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> Zampouras: does it work in cheese?
[18:35] <pijush> need little help on  nautilus shell scripting
[18:35] <dakotawulfy> volkan sorry go to settings then to the repositories
[18:35] <zampouras> ActionParsnip no, but it used to work before. neither in skype
[18:35] <volkan> dakotawulfy: i will try thanks
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Zampouras: skype is a poor test app
[18:36] <dakotawulfy> volkan then to authentication
[18:36] <zampouras> ActionParsnip ok if you say so! do we have any solution on this?
[18:36] <pijush> i have written a script #!bin/sh touch NewTextDocumet.txt gedit NewTextDocumet.txt
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Zampouras : run : lsusb    use the 8 character hexadecimal ID to find guides
[18:36] <volkan> dakotawulfy: yeah, i found it
[18:36] <pijush> not working
[18:37] <volkan> dakotawulfy: thank you very much
[18:37] <tasslehoff> ActionParsnip: hm, EOL as in end of support?
[18:37] <dakotawulfy>  volkan:  then add them  ask were they are point it it will add them
[18:37] <dakotawulfy> volkan: n/p
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Tasslehoff : yes
[18:38] <tasslehoff> ActionParsnip: hm. because the support duration is shorter from 13.04?
[18:38] <icedwater> Hi again :) I successfully created a bootable ISO of my own Ubuntu remix... but when I boot it with qemu-system-i386 -cdrom name.iso, no packages can be found.
[18:38] <volkan> dakotawulfy: thanks!
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> Tasslehoff : yes quite a lot shorter
[18:39] <icedwater> The error I get is E: Unable to locate any package files, perhaps this is not a Debian Disc or the wrong architecture?
[18:39] <tasslehoff> anyway, it seems to me that raring is the better choice on the rMBP, so I'll go that way. I always have the latest version installed anyway :)
[18:39] <ali4ever4> ActionParsnip, thanks
[18:39] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, I'd be surprised if there wasn't a fix for that
[18:39] <icedwater> It should be both, assuming the debootstrap bits were done correctly.. so I'm a little lost as to where the packages might have vanished to on a 688MB image.
[18:39] <icedwater> Is it something wrong with my filesystem size/manifest?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Tgm4883 : fix for what?
[18:40] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, for 12.10 having longer support than 13.04
[18:41] <icedwater> Anyhow, if anyone who knows something about it sees this, leave me a message please.
[18:41] <icedwater> I'm off to bed. Thanks :)
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Tgm4883 : you could maintain the release yourself I guess
[18:41] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, because that would break the supported upgrade paths
[18:41] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, nah, it's the upgrade paths I'm worried about. I think that they will probably just support upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04+1
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Tgm4883 : just stick to LTS
[18:42] <fuho> Hi, I seemed to have lost sound on the laptop in the past day or two. Running U12.04 XFCE, how can I figure out what went bad?
[18:43] <fuho> Dedicated laptop buttons, still pop up applet which moves the progress bar, but no sound ever comes out.
[18:43] <dakotawulfy> tgm4883: was able to get the upgrade to work from the 12.04 to 12.10 then to the 13.04 on the 64 bit but not able to for the 32 bit
[18:43] <tgm4883> ActionParsnip, yes, while that does work for some folks,that isn't going to be what everyone does. "Just stick to LTS" isn't a valid answer to "There is no valid upgrade path from 12.10"
[18:43] <tgm4883> dakotawulfy, not sure what you mean?
[18:45] <dakotawulfy> was able to do an updgrade from the 12.04 to make it 12.10 worked on the 64 bit then to the 13.04  work fine on the 64 bit but was not able to get the 32 bit to work
[18:45] <tgm4883> dakotawulfy, IDK why it didn't work on 32-bit. It should
[18:45] <dakotawulfy> well when i updated the to the
[18:46] <dakotawulfy> tgm4883 12.10  was not able to get out on the web
[18:47] <dakotawulfy>  had seen the bug had one time been able to get it to work but was not able to the last time i tryed
[18:47] <tgm4883> dakotawulfy, is there a question in there? I honestly don't know why you are telling me all of this
[18:48] <TuxVarmari> sw0rdfish: goddamnit, you had me searching for that file transfer for a good half an hour
[18:48] <dakotawulfy> sorry  maybe read it wrong thought u wanted to no about upgrade
[18:49] <tgm4883> dakotawulfy, ah yea, I don't want to know about upgrade. We were discussing what would/should happen for 12.10 when there will be no valid upgrade path
[18:49] <tgm4883> from 12.10 ->
[18:49] <dakotawulfy> ok
[18:49] <dakotawulfy>  sorry just got back at computer
[18:50] <dakotawulfy> tgm4883  did upgrade to 13.04
[18:50] <tgm4883> dakotawulfy, yes, currently that is a valid upgrade path
[18:51] <dakotawulfy> tgm4883:  sorry just did not read that close
[18:51] <tgm4883> no worries
[18:52] <MonkeyDust> locate marlene
[18:52] <MonkeyDust> oops
[18:52] <djshotglass> i need a remote desktop solution like teamviewer that i can install over ssh
[18:53] <djshotglass> teamviewer just crapped out on me i can no longer login to any of my ubuntu machines
[18:53] <KatsumeBlisk> djshotglass: I can't give specific advice, but it sounds like you want vnc
[18:53] <djshotglass> which is problematic because its a $1500 flight into most of the servers
[18:53] <FrEaKmAn_> I accidentally removed /usr/bin/python2.6 .. how can I know where it's installed so I create new symbolic link?
[18:54] <djshotglass> type -P python2.6
[18:54] <KatsumeBlisk> FrEaKmAn_: I'd reinstalled it. You removed the binary afaik.
[18:54] <KatsumeBlisk> *reinstall
[18:54] <djshotglass> but ^ is correct
[18:54] <tgm4883> djshotglass, yea, I'd use VNC over SSH
[18:54] <sw0rdfish> TuxVarmari, ?
[18:54] <djshotglass> /usr/bin/python would most likely be the symlink
[18:56] <FrEaKmAn_> I cannot reinstall... because I get error because of python-software-properties
[18:56] <FrEaKmAn_> which is saying that python version is not correct
[18:56] <KatsumeBlisk> FrEaKmAn_: Can you uninstall Python first?
[18:56] <KatsumeBlisk> FrEaKmAn_: Does it let you?
[18:56] <FrEaKmAn_> KatsumeBlisk, no
[18:57] <TuxVarmari> sw0rdfish: your avatar
[18:57] <TuxVarmari> it showed up in file transfers
[18:57] <TuxVarmari> BUT I HUNTED YOU DOWN NOW!
[18:57]  * TuxVarmari kills sw0rdfish
[18:57] <FloodBot1> TuxVarmari: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:57] <TuxVarmari> Sorry Floodbot1 :(
[18:57] <TuxVarmari> Also what's up with the "enter as punctuation" thing being all over irc?
[18:57] <ppvote> salut
[18:58] <tgm4883> TuxVarmari, don't do it
[18:58] <KatsumeBlisk> TuxVarmari: Enter as punctuation means using return to divide up your sentences.
[18:58] <auronandace> TuxVarmari: readability
[18:58] <TuxVarmari> KatsumeBlisk: ik
[18:58] <TuxVarmari> But it wasn't there yesterday!!
[18:58] <TuxVarmari> I swear to god it popped out of the ground
[18:58] <KatsumeBlisk> TuxVarmari: It's always been there.
[18:59] <KatsumeBlisk> TuxVarmari: Ever since I started hanging out in this channel
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> I'm seeing it everywhere, like it juts popped out of somewhere
[18:59] <FrEaKmAn_> so anybody knows there python is installed by default?
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> FrEaKmAn_: python is installed by default
[18:59] <sw0rdfish> ?????
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> you actually have python 2 and python 3
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> Running command "python3 -v" returns
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> # installing zipimport hook
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> import zipimport # builtin
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> # installed zipimport hook
[18:59] <TuxVarmari> import encodings # directory /usr/lib/python3.2/encodings
[19:00] <FloodBot1> TuxVarmari: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:00] <FrEaKmAn_> 2.6.5 and 2.7.3
[19:00] <TuxVarmari> SHIT
[19:00] <TuxVarmari> I AM SO SORRY
[19:00] <FloodBot1> TuxVarmari: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:00] <TuxVarmari> SO SO SORRY
[19:00] <TuxVarmari> So so sorry
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> I should always check with qshell first
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> Python 3.2.3
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> ^ there
[19:01] <KatsumeBlisk> TuxVarmari: I'd stop speaking so quickly or the bot will mute you.
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> KatsumeBlisk: But that's who I am D:
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> YOU CAN'T CHANGE ME!
[19:01] <sw0rdfish> .........
[19:01] <KatsumeBlisk> TuxVarmari: I'm not threatening. I'm warning you what the bot will do.
[19:01] <TuxVarmari> Anyways
[19:02] <TuxVarmari> Running command "python2 --version" returns
[19:02] <TuxVarmari> Python 2.7.3
[19:02] <TuxVarmari> ^ and then you have python3
[19:02] <TuxVarmari> If you enable it
[19:02] <TuxVarmari> I think
[19:02] <h00k> TuxVarmari: please try to keep your comments on one line
[19:03] <tata_> how can I be "root" in Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[19:03] <t3hb055nueb> For ubuntu, what would be a good utility to burn dvd's and on what format?
[19:03] <h00k> !sudo | tata_
[19:03] <TuxVarmari> tata_: You can use the "sudo" command
[19:03] <TuxVarmari> Goddamn ninjabot
[19:04] <KatsumeBlisk> t3hb055nueb: I think Brasero is installed by default. Not sure if that's what you want though.
[19:04] <djathoris> are there any Linux packages that would allow me to unlock the Oxford 911+ firewire bridge on a LaCie "d2" dvd drive, so that it can be used for other devices?
[19:04] <OerHeks> TuxVarmari, please do not curse, thanks.
[19:04] <t3hb055nueb> didnt work.. skipped really hard.
[19:04] <TuxVarmari> OerHeks: Sorry. I'm just so used to the "internet doesn't care" thing
[19:04] <t3hb055nueb> I am very new to this..
[19:04] <tata_> ok
[19:05] <Paul_MyBB> Hello, does anyone know where I can find the source PNG/SVG for the Ubuntu unity launcher icon?
[19:06] <t3hb055nueb> KatsumeBlisk: Sorry, i am new to this. That did not work for me. I am unsure of what utility I should download for which format =(
[19:06] <TuxVarmari> t3hb055nueb: Brasero should be installed
[19:06] <TuxVarmari> Try that
[19:07] <OerHeks> t3hb055nueb, brasero burns nice. make sure you put in a DVD+R when you burn 12.10, it is bigger than a cd iso.
[19:07] <mnack> hi
[19:07] <TuxVarmari> Hello mnack
[19:07] <mnack> i have a problem
[19:07] <TuxVarmari> Please just ask your question, we are happy to help
[19:07] <djathoris> are there any Linux packages that would allow me to unlock the Oxford 911+ firewire bridge on a LaCie "d2" dvd drive, so that it can be used for other devices?
[19:08] <TuxVarmari> djathoris: Have you tried google?
[19:08] <mnack> i tried installing ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32-bit on my acer aspire one A150
[19:08] <mnack> yes i've tried google of course
[19:08] <guntbert> !repeat | djathoris
[19:08] <TuxVarmari> mnack: I meant djathoris
[19:08] <mnack> but so now it won't boot
[19:08] <mnack> oh sorry
[19:08] <TuxVarmari> Ok
[19:08] <guntbert> !google | TuxVarmari
[19:08] <mnack> i've seen plenty of solutions for that
[19:08] <mnack> except my screen is completely black with nothing
[19:08] <TuxVarmari> mnack: Ok. First off, does it boot at all?
[19:08] <mnack> no
[19:09] <OerHeks> djathoris, make sure the 2nd firewire device is connected when you boot ubuntu.
[19:09] <TuxVarmari> Do you get a BIOS screen?
[19:09] <mnack> can't access boot order, setup, bios, nothing
[19:09] <mnack> terminal, no
[19:09] <TuxVarmari> Mmm
[19:09] <mnack> nada
[19:09] <mnack> so
[19:09] <FloodBot1> mnack: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:09] <mnack> i'm lost
[19:09] <djathoris> TuxVarmari, I did and found a few MacOS apps at dead links
[19:09] <TuxVarmari> mnack: I don't know... Do you have the power plugged in?
[19:09] <mnack> yes
[19:10] <mnack> does anyone know a way i can make the USB automatically boot/run when i plug it in….
[19:10] <mnack> i don't even know if i would see anything though
[19:10] <TuxVarmari> mnack: Try booting it normally
[19:10] <TuxVarmari> Without any usb or anything
[19:10] <mnack> i've totally tried that
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> mnack: Did you install Ubuntu or Ubuntu Netbook Edition?
[19:11] <tgm4883> mnack, does your motherboard support booting from USB?
[19:11] <mnack> ubuntu
[19:11] <wilee-nilee> mnack, try tapping the f12 key at powering on if you have this unlocked from the bios.
[19:11] <djathoris> OerHeks, the problem is that the firewire bridge on the LaCie drives is locked in it's nvram to allow only LaCie dvd drives to be connected. but I've been reading that this can be unlockes to allow any ata device to be connected, if I could get softwares somewhere
[19:11] <mnack> yes i did it to install
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> The wikipedia page says that your laptop might not support Ubuntu
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> nvm
[19:11] <mnack> well there's a ubuntu page for acers
[19:11] <mnack> for acer aspire ones
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> mnack: ignore me
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> I didn't read the whole list
[19:11] <mnack> sorry
[19:11] <mnack> ok
[19:11] <FloodBot1> mnack: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:11] <wilee-nilee> mnack, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne/AOA150
[19:11] <TuxVarmari> I'm not able to help you with that. Sorry.
[19:12] <mnack> daamn
[19:12] <mnack> thank you anyway
[19:13] <TuxVarmari> mnack: Not related, but how do you pronounce your nick? mnak? As in emnak?
[19:13] <t3hb055nueb> Hi, I am really new to ubuntu. Only used it for 1 week now.
[19:13] <t3hb055nueb> Can someone help me with dvd issues?
[19:13] <wilee-nilee> !ask | t3hb055nueb
[19:15] <TuxVarmari> t3hb055nueb: Please just ask your question
[19:15] <t3hb055nueb> High, I am using "Long term stable release, Ubuntu lts" I am unfamiliar with burning my home movies onto a dvd.  What format should I use and what utility actually works?
[19:15] <TuxVarmari> Brasero should come as default
[19:16] <t3hb055nueb> TuxVarmari: They skipped
[19:16] <TuxVarmari> Goddamn, I so want to disable part/joins for this channel but I can't because this is a help channel
[19:17] <ChogyDan> t3hb055nueb: k3b is another great program
[19:17] <t3hb055nueb> ChogyDan: Thanks, I have it on my PC, I have not tried it because I have wasted over 20 dvd's trying to get this to work.

[19:18] <Neytiri> hi i need to close my /boot drive to a bigger memory card how woul di do this?
[19:18] <t3hb055nueb> ChogyDan: I was wondering what format I should use to burn?
[19:18] <Neytiri> clome*
[19:18] <TuxVarmari> guntbert: I know, but then I can't see when someone I'm talking to leaves
[19:19] <ChogyDan> t3hb055nueb: i dunno, the movie format?  that's about as far as I understood when I was burning svcds
[19:19] <dakotawulfy> FrEaKmAn_: hey  here all the info for the python if u still need it  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5722468/
[19:19] <guntbert> TuxVarmari: so don't complain :)
[19:19] <TuxVarmari> guntbert: Goddamnit D:
[19:20] <TuxVarmari> argh
[19:20] <TuxVarmari> I hate it when people do the join-switchhost
[19:21] <auronandace> TuxVarmari: commentary is not needed
[19:22] <t3hb055nueb> How do I use K3b?
[19:22] <Neytiri> hi i need to clone my /boot drive to a bigger memory card how would i do this? my current memory card i use for /boot is full and i cant update the kernl any more
[19:23] <llutz> t3hb055nueb: http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2010/06/08/how-to-burn-video_ts-folders-to-playable-dvds-in-ubuntu-with-k3b/
[19:23] <TuxVarmari> !repeat | Neytiri
[19:23] <auronandace> Neytiri: get rid of older kernels you no longer use
[19:23] <Gate> What does logrotate do if it has a copytruncate directive and there isn't enough disk space to copy the file?
[19:23] <Neytiri> sorry thought a issue ocurec with my chat again
[19:24] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, Boot drive or partition can you be more descriptive?
[19:24] <t3hb055nueb> Llutz: thanks
[19:24] <Neytiri> drive its self
[19:24] <Neytiri> its jsut /boot that is on that drive which is currently a 256 meg memmory card
[19:25] <ChogyDan> Neytiri: that is small
[19:25] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, How many kernel sets?
[19:25] <ChogyDan> Neytiri: how are you planning to get a new drive?  swap in a new memory card?
[19:26] <Neytiri> i hav a seond set of card readersin my system with a 2 gig memory card that i want to use as the new /boot drive
[19:26] <qum_> yo all
[19:26] <^Mike> I've been asked to test this kernel (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9-rc7-raring/) but I'm not sure how to boot it when my system has encrypted LVM set up. So, /boot is on an unencrypted partition, and then it needs to decrypt and mount / in order to continue. Instead, the kernel panics with "cant find init, try passing init=" What do?
[19:26] <Neytiri> wilee-nilee, no idea how many sets are currently on the current card
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, look in boot, or what does the grub bootloader show.
[19:28] <Neytiri> i wanna say 9
[19:28] <qum_> hello.. i'm not sure i'm using the best driver for my video card, although everything seems not bad. Is there any way to check if the driver is installed right and everything is right?
[19:29] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, you only need 2 sets, remove the rest, that card is big enough if maintained.
[19:29] <Neytiri> well i would still like to upgrade it
[19:29] <Neytiri> when i built this system i ddint have a bigger one
[19:30] <FrEaKmAn_> dakotawulfy, thanks
[19:30] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, Why are you doing it this way boot should just be in /
[19:31] <FrEaKmAn_> well problem for me is that I created symbolic link /usr/bin/python -> /usr/bin/python2.7
[19:31] <wilee-nilee> and using the mbr
[19:31] <Neytiri> i wanted somethingi could take with me and keep most people off my sytem
[19:31] <dakotawulfy> FrEaKmAn_: n/p did not try too flood out before
[19:31] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, you encrypted?
[19:31] <qum_> can ne1 answer me pls?
[19:31] <FrEaKmAn_> and then I accidentally created link /usr/bin/python2.6 -> /usr/bin/python
[19:31] <FrEaKmAn_> so python2.6 now links to python2.7
[19:31] <FrEaKmAn_> what is why I want to know where python2.6 is installed so I can fix it
[19:31] <ChogyDan> qum_: what video card?
[19:31] <Neytiri> no, i dont need to be, i jsut ned to be abel to keep my brother and family from being able to boot my system
[19:32] <dakotawulfy> FrEaKmAn_: so u got it working???
[19:32] <wilee-nilee> Neytiri, A live cd has full access.
[19:32] <qum_> ChogyDan: Geforce 275gtx
[19:32] <Neytiri> system wotn boot cd
[19:32] <FrEaKmAn_> I tried to reinstall it, but python-software-properties is reporting incorrect python version
[19:32] <ChogyDan> qum_: dkms status should tell you if the driver is installed
[19:32] <FrEaKmAn_> dakotawulfy, no.. I can't find where python2.6 is installed
[19:33] <dakotawulfy> FrEaKmAn_: check synaptic
[19:33] <Terabyte> is it possible to set ubuntu server to automatically download and install updates?
[19:33] <dakotawulfy> FrEaKmAn_:  see if  u can find it
[19:33] <qum_> ChogyDan: nvidia-319, 319.12, 3.7.0-7-generic, i686: installed
[19:33] <qum_> ChogyDan: that means it's the best driver and everything should work?
[19:34] <ChogyDan> qum_: 3.7 kernel?  is that correct?
[19:34] <wilee-nilee> qum_, Where did you get the 3.19 driver?
[19:35] <wilee-nilee> qum_, Is this 13.04?
[19:35] <qum_> ChogyDan: 3.7.0-7-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Sat Dec 15 16:34:21 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
[19:35] <qum_> wilee-nilee: yep
[19:36] <wilee-nilee> qum, You want the #ubuntu+1 channel until release
[19:36] <qum_> wilee-nilee: what do u mean?
[19:36] <wilee-nilee> qum_, That is the development channel for 13.04. ;)
[19:37] <qum_> wilee-nilee: emm, i'm there, but what u mean i didn't get u :D
[19:38] <qum_> So ChogyDan, is that means i'm good with the driver?
[19:38] <wilee-nilee> !13.04 | qum
[19:38] <thePHPdev> When will Ubuntu 13.04 be released? Or is it kind of hard to judge.
[19:39] <tgm4883> thePHPdev, april 25th
[19:39] <wilee-nilee> thePHPdev, 25th I believe it is on the web.
[19:39] <thePHPdev> Ooh, I look forward to it. Thanks!
[19:40] <thePHPdev> What about 13.10? Or has that not been started yet?
[19:40] <Dean28> Why do i sometimes get '/tmp not ready' on <IP_ADDRESS>?
[19:40] <guntbert> !ot | thePHPdev
[19:40] <tgm4883> thePHPdev, probably october 31st
[19:41] <thePHPdev> Oh, thanks for telling me. Bye!

Does anybody have any idea why this happens. It's fine if I don't put it on suspend. Resolution is fine and everything.
[19:50] <mx8manger> and also
[19:50] <k1l> you dont need to reinstall windows

[19:51] <thePHPdev> OK, You want me to do that after I wake it up?
[19:51] <mx8manger> you mean mail relaying fnuser
[19:52] <k1l> mx8manger: thats better to ask in ##linux
[19:52] <mx8manger> here a book will help u
[19:52] <fnuser> mx8manger: mail relay?
[19:52] <t3hb055nueb> Thanks for the help regarding K3b, Everyone =)
[19:52] <mx8manger> https://www.blurredlogic.net/ebooks/Linux/CompTIA%20-%20Linux+%20Study%20Guide.pdf
[19:53] <llutz> fnuser: read the manual of your mta
[19:53] <mx8manger> someone should append this link to the topic cause it usefull
[19:56] <mx8manger> 11 gigs will be enough for linux?
[19:56] <mx8manger> ubuntu*
[19:57] <k1l> mx8manger: depends on your needs. but the system will easy install on 11gig.
[19:58] <mx8manger> well i will be installing msf on it
[19:58] <mx8manger> but what scares me the grub thing
[19:58] <mx8manger> can i just use the windows boot loader
[19:58] <mx8manger> like when i used to do with xp and windows 2000
[19:58] <k1l> you cant load linux with the win bootloader
[19:59] <t3hb055nueb> Can someone direct me to an ubuntu channel about security?
[19:59] <mx8manger> but it will be installed by default right?
[19:59] <tgm4883> http://askubuntu.com/questions/62440/is-it-possible-to-boot-ubuntu-using-the-windows-bootloader/62442#62442
[19:59] <mx8manger> ##security
[20:00] <bkfitz> anyone know how I can get ufw to autostart on reboot?
[20:00] <mx8manger> thank u
[20:00] <bkfitz> I have ENABLED=yes in the ufw.conf file but that doens't seem to do it
[20:00] <k1l> t3hb055nueb: i dont know if there is a special security channel for ubuntu.
[20:01] <k1l> t3hb055nueb: i dont know if there is a special security channel for ubuntu.
[20:01] <k1l> t3hb055nueb: what about you ask your question in here?
[20:01] <t3hb055nueb> Using Xirc, I cannot see the list of people in the channel. I messed up.
[20:01] <t3hb055nueb> Oh, fixed that.
[20:01] <nahata> hi, do you any of you know if wget can be used to download tutorials stored on an Amazon Cloud Drive that i have to log into with a username and password, i tried the username and password switches with the part of the tutorial i wanted, and it will only download from the amazon.com/clouddrive, not from anything inside the account
[20:01] <PsiKloPx> We have two computers on our Windows domain network that are running Ubuntu 12.10. They currently have access to internet only and are in the company breakroom for the shop employees during breaks, etc.
[20:02] <k1l> t3hb055nueb: well, xirc is not a supported irc client
[20:03] <brandt> hello, is this the proper channel to ask for help regarding system logs, etc..?
[20:03] <PsiKloPx> Now the boss wants me to give access to these computers to a few folders on our Windows 2008 server where we keep machine photos and such. I have tried the directions found here with no luck. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[20:03] <wilee-nilee> bkfitz, what do you see with this sudo ufw status
[20:04] <PsiKloPx> The folders need to auto mount in guest account.
[20:06] <guntbert> brandt: go ahead and try us
[20:06] <PsiKloPx> Can anyone help with mounting windows shares on ubuntu?
[20:08] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, it would help if you started with why that link didn't work for you
[20:09] <TuxVarmari> Ubuntu is a bows
[20:09] <tgm4883> a bows?
[20:09] <TuxVarmari> boss
[20:09] <tgm4883> ah
[20:14] <PsiKloPx> tgm4883, when I'm logged into the guest account I get the message that only root can mount
[20:15] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, yes, that is true. That isn't how you would want to mount the drives anyway
[20:15] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, Since you are trying to mount it in the guest account, I'm assuming that all users have write access to the same drive share?
[20:16] <nahata> i got wget to ask me for the password to the clouddrive, but it downloaded nothing from inside it
[20:16] <nahata> oh wait a second
[20:17] <PsiKloPx> tgm4883, Yes they do. But I'm setting it up under my admin account.
[20:18] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, you should probably mount it somewhere '/mnt/serversharename' and then do a symlink in the default user dir
[20:18] <PsiKloPx> tgm4883, full disclosure: I'm the sales manager/IT department/janitor/copy machine repairman/"whatever no one else wants to do" and I'm a novice when it comes to Linux.
[20:18] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, have you been successful mounting it to /mnt/serversharename  ?
[20:19] <PsiKloPx> actually no
[20:19] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, ok, what part are you on?
[20:19] <PsiKloPx> I can browse to the folders that I want to share and tried makeing a symlink
[20:19] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, lets just work on getting it mounted first (automatically)
[20:19] <PsiKloPx> I've backed out completely and starting over.
[20:20] <PsiKloPx> fstab is back to original
[20:20] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, Ok, create a directory in /mnt/ to mount the share to
[20:20] <ClientAlive> does anyone know how to set up an auto reply message in evolution?
[20:21] <ClientAlive> The info I'm seeing in Google is out of date
[20:21] <PsiKloPx> tgm4883, Done
[20:22] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, ok, setup fstab to mount the share to that directory
[20:22] <nahata> apparently i have to do all kinds of rigamarole with a cookie to get this password-protected page with wget, only i use curl
[20:24] <PsiKloPx> tgm4883, do I need to include smb:?
[20:25] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, it would look similar to '//servername/sharename  /media/windowsshare  cifs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8  0  0'
[20:25] <nahata> wow i guess it's way complicated to do what i want to do, isn't there a gui tool to download currently viewed pages with ubuntu?
[20:25] <tgm4883> PsiKloPx, from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[20:25] <nahata> i tried this CLI stuff as long as i could lol
[20:26] <agent> I saw this on login, what does it mean? "-NickServ- 75 failed logins since last login."
[20:26] <tgm4883> agent, I think that means, that since the last time you logged in, there were 75 failed login attempts to your account
[20:27] <agent> I had an intrusion recently and I was wondering if this would be something lingering from that?
[20:27] <tgm4883> agent, define lingering. Did you format the machine?
[20:27] <Bodsda> agent: you have a fairly generic nick - it's not unfeasible to think other people where trying to use it as theirs
[20:27] <agent> thanks tgm4883, I guess some animals just can't stay out of my things.
[20:28] <PsiKloPx> I've got something wrong..."line 12 in /etc/fstab is bad" I've got to go lock up the shop. I'll be back later. Thanks for your help.
[20:28] <agent> no, I really am limited to what I can do atm. I can't even get a download.
[20:28] <agent> I've tried
[20:29] <agent> I'm off. take care.
[20:29] <nale> i need a frien
[20:29] <nale> d
[20:29] <agent> agent provocature is hardly generic :D
[20:33] <nahata> is my problem that unusual that nobody has said anything about it?
[20:34] <wilee-nilee> nahata, Kind of vague, give some details and what you want to the channel, not me.
[20:39] <roseysdaddy> anyone awake?
[20:40] <BPower> Hey all - it seems like out of the blue Compiz started using 150-200% CPU.  It started yesterday.  Anyone else having the same problem?  I'm on 12.10.

[20:47] <roseysdaddy_> anyone know anything about installing something like the lubuntu desktop environment?  im thinking that id like to put it on my headless ubuntu server for emergencies.  I don't want to boot into it all the time, only when I have no other web access.
[20:47] <bray90820> Anyone know of a twitter/facebook app that supports touch scrolling
[20:49] <DX099> k1l, thanks, there's a problem with xorg-core updates that rewrites "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so"
[20:51] <Ripsometime> I seem to have a problem with intel graphics on 12.10, i repeatedly get a system problem detected message, when nothing obvious is going wrong. The processor is a Pentium B940, and the graphics are currently unkown.
[20:51] <BPower> Hey all - I lost my internet connection. I was asking if anyone is having issues with Compiz on 12.10 recently. It just started using 150% to 300% CPU (updated) in the past few days. I'm not sure where to start looking to fix it.
[20:52] <BPower> I tried `kill -9`-ing it but it came back instantly with no change in CPU usage.
[20:53] <Ripsometime> The problem seems to only persist when i try to run graphics intensive applications.
[20:54] <ubuntuaddicted> heys guys,  i am trying to figure out this transmission-daemon, file owner, permissions, and NFS sharing issue.
[20:54] <ubuntuaddicted> anyone in here use NFS and understand permissions, etc etc
[20:54] <BlueEagle> roseysdaddy_: What you want to do is to remove lightdm (or which ever login manager you use) from the rc. Perhaps rc-update is the command you're looking for.
[20:55] <gh__> hi, anyone having problems doing "apt-get update" with ubuntu 13.04? I have a hash mismatch error on the universe package list
[20:55] <tgm4883> ubuntuaddicted, what is your question
[20:55] <tgm4883> gh__, 13.04 support is in #ubuntu+1 , but no, I don't have that issue
[20:55] <theadmin> gh__: Raring isn't supported until release, please see #ubuntu+1
[20:56] <gh__> ok thanks for the indication!
[21:00] <OpenSorce> 12.04, Toshiba laptop, I've tried using the date command, the gui interface and bios, nothing I do seems to make this machine keep proper time. It's perpetually 1 hour ahead. It will change for awhile but then always reverts back, any suggestions?
[21:01] <theadmin> OpenSorce: Eh, make sure you've got the right timezone set. I think Ubuntu syncs with NTP.
[21:02] <OpenSorce> theadmin, ah... I thought it was something like that. Any idea how to check that, then?
[21:03] <theadmin> OpenSorce: System Settings -> Time and Date -> Location, type the city you're in (or the one that your timezone is usually defined with)
[21:04] <theadmin> OpenSorce: Or if you're more of a commandline person, sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
[21:04] <OpenSorce> theadmin, thats what I was hoping for :-)
[21:05] <OpenSorce> I thank you....

[21:30] <theadmin> parmpster: 10.04
[21:30] <theadmin> But that's not for long
[21:30] <parmpster> then how is 10.10 not supported?
[21:31] <theadmin> parmpster: 10.04 is an LTS, it has longer support.
[21:31] <FrEaKmAn_> is it ok to edit /etc/passwd on hand or should I use some tool?
[21:31] <parmpster> Oh, so I will have to update?

[21:32] <bekks> parmpster: Yes, to 12.04 at least
[21:32] <parmpster> thanks so much
