[00:00] <nevyn> TIBS02: is it optimus?
[00:03] <EMPHASIS_> Hi, what app can I use to capture screen actions to .avi or .mp4?
[00:03] <zykotick9> Sparkie: from the computer running the ssh server, can you "ssh localhost" successfully?
[00:06] <dondopa> SSH is good
[00:06] <dondopa>  but how do i copy things recursively without copying everything over using rsync?
[00:07] <zykotick9> dondopa: scp has a -r switch?
[00:07] <dondopa> Ok here is ascenario
[00:07] <dondopa> i use scp -r
[00:07] <dondopa> backup my files
[00:07] <dondopa> later i have 1 file that is new to the old backup
[00:07] <nevyn> [TiZ]: is it optimus?
[00:08] <[TiZ]> nevyn: Yes, it is.
[00:08] <dondopa> how do i add that 1new file to the old backup without copying everything over again?
[00:08] <zykotick9> dondopa: for backup, rsync is better...
[00:08] <dondopa> exactly
[00:08] <dondopa> so how do you do it inrsync?
[00:08] <nevyn> [TiZ]: so. the hdmi is probably not connected to the intel.
[00:09] <zykotick9> dondopa: i think -u is update... but check the rsync man page?
[00:09] <dondopa> ok
[00:09] <dondopa> thx
[00:10] <zykotick9> dondopa: fyi, rsync can use ssh... and be careful if you use the delete option (learned that the hard way)
[00:10] <[TiZ]> nevyn: Oh... I see. :/
[00:10] <dondopa> oh dam..
[00:10] <EMPHASIS_> can anyone recommend a desktop capture program to produce e.g. .avi or .mp4?
[00:10] <nevyn> TIBS02: it's probably connected to the nvidia
[00:10] <nevyn> [TiZ]:
[00:11] <nevyn> TIBS02: so sorry ;)
[00:11] <nevyn> [TiZ]: 11:17 < zykotick9> dondopa: for backup, rsync is better...
[00:11] <nevyn> wat?
[00:11] <[TiZ]> Huh?
[00:11] <nevyn> [TiZ]: so bumblebee can I think deal with this
[00:11] <dondopa> you have a problem with rsync sucka?
[00:12] <nevyn> but the right answer is the stuff David Arlie is working on.
[00:12] <[TiZ]> nevyn: I am currently using bumblebee. I might need some trickery to detect whether the HDMI is plugged in or not, and then actually using it when I run games..
[00:12] <[TiZ]> You mean the stuff airlied has been working on since forever?
[00:14] <EMPHASIS_> desktop capture! anyone recomend an app?
[00:14] <wolfspy> sometimes my computer freezes while playing java game minecraft with openjdk 7, after about 20 seconds it unfreezes. The whole desktop freezes, if im playing a video on the other moniter it freezes too but the sound dosent. Anyone know what's wrong?
[00:14] <wolfspy> http://pastebin.com/5yJDf7sz here is my system info
[00:16] <EMPHASIS_> ------------------------------------------------------- desktop capture -- can someone recommend an app? PLEASE? -----------------------------------------
[00:17] <n000b> How can i remove and reload a kernel module? rmmod and modprobe does NOT work...
[00:17] <DuncanNZ> EMPHASIS_: don't spam. your question should be: "Can anyone recommend a desktop capture app?"
[00:17] <DuncanNZ> EMPHASIS_: and recordmydesktop works well for me
[00:18] <EMPHASIS_> DuncanNZ -- thank-you . BFN
[00:18] <n000b> Can i somehow FORCE the kernel to trash a module that is claimed to be in use?
[00:19] <piotr26> EMPHASIS : Just click Print screen. That's all what you need to do
[00:19] <bekks> n000b: which module?
[00:19] <n000b> bekks dvb_core and drxk
[00:21] <komerdoor> /nick <naam>
[00:21] <jmgk> hi komerdoor
[00:21] <n000b> bekks i wanted to reload drxk because i provided the .fw file for my usb tuner to work    http://paste.ubuntu.com/6496791/
[00:22] <nevyn> [TiZ]: specifically the stuff to replace xinerama and handle usb video adapters and stuff.
[00:22] <coventry> wolfspy: In a terminal, monitor the process's memory usage with "top".  Press "m" to sort the processes by memory.
[00:22] <nevyn> [TiZ]: which he spoke about in january at LCA
[00:22] <[TiZ]> nevyn: How far along is it?
[00:23] <wolfspy> coventry: should I do it while the game is open?
[00:23] <coventry> wolfspy: Run the terminal in the window where said you watch the video.
[00:23] <wolfspy> coventry: I dont think the video is the problem, it happens without the video
[00:23] <coventry> wolfspy: Sorry, read that as how should you do it.  Yes, while the game is open.
[00:24] <wolfspy> coventry: java is taking up 102 cpu and 6.9 mem
[00:24] <andywojo> Use nmon instead of top.. top stinks. http://packages.debian.org/sid/utils/nmon
[00:24] <coventry> wolfspy: Keep monitoring it until the symptoms reappear.
[00:24] <wolfspy> oops
[00:24] <wolfspy> sorry
[00:24] <wolfspy> coventry: okj
[00:25] <nevyn> [TiZ]: well it was working code I don't know if it got merged tho
[00:25] <n000b> bekks nvm got it, had to unload em28xx_dvb then drxk then reload in backwards order, worked now
[00:25] <zykotick9> don't install debian packages on ubuntu... that's silly.  htop is a good top alternative.
[00:25] <andywojo> Haha why not?
[00:25] <[TiZ]> That's cool. usb monitors didn't work well for me for two years; I needed it for my work computer. I ended up just getting a card that can run 3 heads.
[00:26] <Guest63526> Hello, can someone help me mount a zfs pool using Native-ZFS?
[00:26] <zykotick9> andywojo: 'cause they aren't created for use on ubuntu - they'll have different dependencies...
[00:27] <andywojo> True, that's a possibility - but I know that it works fairly well
[00:27] <zykotick9> !wfm | andywojo just don't suggest it to others then...
[00:28] <jmgk> hi all
[00:28] <andywojo> Ah okay
[00:28] <andywojo> Well, it looks like there is a ubuntu specific one: apt-get install nmon
[00:29] <zykotick9> andywojo: thanks though, i hadn't seen nmon before... probably won't replace htop for me - but good to know about.
[00:29] <Guest63526> Anyone use Native-ZFS much?
[00:29] <jmgk> nope Guest63526
[00:29] <coventry> nmon looks slick, but basically useless for wolfspy's issue without further instructions on how to set it up.
[00:29] <nevyn> [TiZ]: what laptop is it?
[00:30] <andywojo> It's born from AIX.. I like it better than nmon, because it exports nicely to CSV whereas I don't think htop does.
[00:30] <bekks> Guest63526: I am using native zfs, but not on Ubuntu. And I never heard of Native-ZFS.
[00:30] <andywojo> better than htop*
[00:30] <[TiZ]> nevyn: Asus G46VW
[00:30] <coventry> andywojo: Yeah, that's completely irrelevant to the problem at hand.
[00:30] <bekks> andywojo: the AIX guys never heard of sar then ;)
[00:31] <Guest63526> Sorry, I wasn't trying to be specific I couldn't remember exactly it's name
[00:31] <andywojo> Well he could let it run in the background and wait for the problem to come up. Can't do that with htop :)
[00:31] <andywojo> Ew. Sar.
[00:32] <Guest63526> I *think* I installed it correctly, but zpool etc just suggest I install zfs fuse
[00:33] <adam_> Hello
[00:34] <picca> hi adam_
[00:34] <hassen> hello
[00:40] <gssh> how much memory does my graphics board have?
[00:41] <gssh> in other words, how do i tell how much...?
[00:45] <BlackDalek> Is it possible to configure ubuntu so that when it starts, the user only has the option to run 3 specific applications and no access to any other programs or settings?
[00:47] <adam_> BlackDalek, Like a restricted shell? If so try rssh..
[00:49] <BlackDalek> adam_, "rssh"... is that a command, an app, a gui or what?
[00:49] <adam_> BlackDalek, This also might be helpful http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/05/27/how-to-lock-down-gnome/
[00:52] <BlackFlag> Good evening, people! I don't know what I did that i'm not able to resize windows
[00:52] <adam_> BlackDalek, I would use pessulus if your trying to lock down a desktop environment and rssh if your trying to lock down a command shell
[00:53] <nevyn> TIBS02:
[00:54] <zykotick9> BlackFlag: perhaps you should state what DE/WM you are currently using... PS. I'm not help, so don't both including my nick in reply ;)  best of luck.
[00:54] <zykotick9> s/I'm not/I'm no/
[01:00] <adam_> Today I got rid of Windows 7 and installed Ubuntu over it so now I just have Ubuntu and Slackware on my computer.. It will be interesting to see how this turns out...
[01:07] <hassen> what is the "super key" in ubuntu
[01:08] <zykotick9> hassen: "windows key", poorly named IMO
[01:08] <DuncanNZ> zykotick9: do you think "windows key" or "super key" is the poor name?
[01:09] <zykotick9> DuncanNZ: well.. both i guess ;)  but calling the windows key, "super" is my main issue
[01:09] <DuncanNZ> but it's not the windows key just because most computers have a windows symbol on it
[01:09] <DuncanNZ> on macs the "super key" is the command key
[01:09] <gassho> how do you tell how much memory your graphics board gots?
[01:09] <DuncanNZ> and also some people would object if Linux called it by "windows"
[01:10] <gassho> in ubuntu 13.10
[01:11] <zykotick9> gassho: an example using lspci at http://paste.ubuntu.com/6496916/
[01:11] <zykotick9> DuncanNZ: i think it's that objection that led to "super key" ;)
[01:12] <dooglus> I just rebooted and my touchpad stopped working.  is there something I can run to reinitialise it?
[01:13] <DuncanNZ> zykotick9: yeah :) I for one would object if I saw names of a competing proprietary software company written in my open source OS
[01:15] <crankharder> every time I boot with kernel 3.8.0-33, I get dumped to an (initramfs) shell.  I can boot into 3.8.0-29 fine though.  How can I debug what's wrong with .33?
[01:16] <dooglus> also, any tab that uses flash now says "oh snap" in chromium.  any fix for this?
[01:16] <dooglus> I upgraded the chromium-browser package
[01:16] <dooglus> that's maybe when all the trouble started
[01:16] <bekks> dooglus: Did you restart Chromium?
[01:16] <dooglus> yeah.  and rebooted
[01:16] <dooglus> that's when the touchpad quit
[01:18] <dooglus> I was trying to save bankwidth until I can get a proper Internet connection.  currently using the data plan on my phone, which is expensive.  so I just "apt-get upgrade chromium-browser" rather than less it download the full 500 MB of packages it wanted to get
[01:18] <dooglus> bandwidth*
[01:20] <crankharder> where are the kernelb oot options in 12.04?  what used to be /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:20] <grache28> HI!
[01:21] <zykotick9> crankharder: check /etc/default/grub
[01:21] <grache28> Does anyone know a way to upgrade from 11.04 to something more current -- the system in question doesn't boot USB and I don't have access to a dvd drive atm
[01:21] <Sparkie> zykotick9: even when i ssh localhost, it prompts me for my PW, then it says permission denied, please try again
[01:22] <zykotick9> Sparkie: you aren't trying as root are you?
[01:22] <Sparkie> zykotick9: i am, and i changed the config to allow for root to use ssh. is that a bad idea? if so, why?
[01:23] <crankharder> zykotick9: dont think that's what I'm looking for.. I appear to have this problem, but i dont have a menu.lst file to edit... https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/busybox-initramfs-prevents-launch-of-ubuntu-server-8-04-3-a-758073/
[01:23] <zykotick9> Sparkie: that's stilly.  best of luck - i hope it all fails, and you continue getting denied.  don't reply to me further.
[01:23] <Sparkie> zykotick9: wow, harsh. thanks
[01:24] <dooglus> grache28: "apt-get"
[01:24] <zykotick9> crankharder: /etc/default/grub is the boot options for grub?  ahhh, 8.04 is WAY to old to be getting directions from!  that's grub-legacy, NOT grub2
[01:26] <crankharder> trying this solution now: http://www.proposedsolution.com/solutions/ubuntu-booting-to-initramfs-prompt/
[01:26] <crankharder> ...but it doesn't appear to offer a permanent fix
[01:27] <crankharder> not really sure how this happened to begin with... I formatted the SSD when I installed ubuntu. I never intended this box to be dual booted
[01:28] <dooglus> I did a full apt-get update && apt-get upgrade then rebooted.  and the touchpad still doesn't work
[01:29] <dooglus> fuck
[01:29] <daftykins> be careful of language please sir
[01:29] <crankharder> yea... from the initramfs prompt "mount /dev/sda1 /root" worked... how do I figure out how ubuntu is trying to mount /root?
[01:29] <dooglus> lsmod | grep mouse shows no output - pretty sure it used to list 'psmouse' or similar
[01:29] <dooglus> daftykins: it's ok, I'm all grown up
[01:30] <daftykins> not everyone here is, though (:
[01:30] <daftykins> be mindful of others
[01:30] <zykotick9> crankharder: just want to point out /root is root user's home directory not / filesystem...
[01:30] <overdrank> +1
[01:31] <ObrienDave> !language | dooglus
[01:31] <crankharder> zykotick9: well, this is completely wack:  1) boot machine, which drops me into an "(initramfs)" prompt 2) mount /dev/sda1 /root 3) continue -- boots fine.  explain that :/
[01:31] <dooglus> could it be related to the fglrx thingy?
[01:31] <zykotick9> crankharder: i can't, but you've basically chrooted to /root then?!?!
[01:32] <crankharder> zykotick9: but yea, i see your point.  and now that i'm in.  if I sudo up, there's nothign in /root
[01:32] <crankharder> zykotick9: hell if I know
[01:32] <crankharder> i've got this in fstab: "UUID=bc030b95-9901-4b54-a7e1-f0738655904c /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1" -- whcih seems all normal
[01:33] <crankharder> gonna reboot and try w/o step #2 above
[01:33] <zykotick9> crankharder: have you verified that UUID is correct?  "sudo blkid" will show you.
[01:34] <crankharder> btw.. I *do* get the ubuntu loading screen prior to dropping to this initramfs prompt
[01:34] <crankharder> yea... wack.  just executing "exit" at this prompt fixes things
[01:35] <dooglus> I got the touchpad working again by running "sudo dpkg -i fglrx_13.101-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-amdcccle_13.101-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-dev_13.101-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb" and rebooting.  weird.  it WAS an fglrx issue
[01:35] <crankharder> zykotick9: and yes, the UUID in /etc/fstab correctly matches one of the drives from 'blkid'
[01:35] <daftykins> AMD for you
[01:37] <crankharder> meh 'exit' fixes this... this is gonna have to bug me a *lot* more to debug any further.  I dont turn this thing off except for, erm, lightning.
[01:38] <Foxhoundz> My ISP upgraded to IPv6
[01:38] <Foxhoundz> and now apt-get is broken
[01:38] <Foxhoundz> it's trying to resolve an IPv6 address and it's not updating
[01:38] <wallzero> Greetings, is there a benefit to upgrading to Samba4 for filesharing or are the new features mostly geared towards active directory?

[01:55] <menujah> ola a todos
[01:56] <millerti_> Egad.  I reinstalled Ubuntu 13.10 because of various wonky things going on.  Now when I insert a CD, it gives me an error that it doesn't know about the rilesystem type iso9660.  How do I fix this?
[01:56] <roothorick> ...wait a second, those devfiles are already read-write
[01:56] <roothorick> so why is it failing to open the kernel driver
[01:56] <menujah> alguna persona me puede decir como hago para crear una pagina web desde ubuntu
[01:57] <ObrienDave> millerti_, try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras. it might help
[01:58] <millerti_> For mounting CDs?  Isn't iso9960 something that should be built into the kernel?
[01:58] <ObrienDave> yes, but it wont hurt to try
[01:58] <vantage> Hi, I just had a notice come up on boot that a drive in my raid array has failed and I have booted with the degraded raid array. What sort of diagnostics can I do to see the cause of the failure? SMART returns a pass for the drive
[01:59] <millerti_> Alright
[02:01] <bekks> vantage: dmesg
[02:01] <bekks> vantage: hdparm, smartctl -a in addition
[02:01] <vantage> bekks: Looking at that now. Any strings I should be looking for in there?
[02:02] <vantage> bekks: smartctl -a gave the drive an overall pass
[02:02] <bekks> vantage: whats an "overall pass"? Did you run a short/long selftest?
[02:02] <jmgk> hi all
[02:03] <millerti_> Did ubuntu deprecate virtual consoles?
[02:04] <vantage> bekks: SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
[02:04] <jmgk> hey hassen_
[02:04] <vantage> bekks: full output here: http://pastebin.com/zEapBXMw
[02:04] <bekks> millerti_: what exactly are you refering to? PTY? VTY?
[02:04] <hassen_> hello jmgk
[02:05] <hassen_> given that e.g windows 7  gets the drivers for the machine without any help of manufacturer-made drivers,they are still yet useful to enhance the drivers' functionality,so i wondered about linux(like ubuntu),aren't there drivers for machines made for linux?like ubuntu
[02:06] <vantage> bekks: though it does list errors in there, I have no idea what they mean
[02:06] <millerti_> bekks: Alt+Ctrl+Fkey doesn't work in 13.10
[02:07] <bekks> vantage: that drive is going to fail soon. See lines 61, 64, 65, 70, 73, 75, 76, and especially 77.
[02:07] <vocx> hassen_, I don't understand your question? All drivers should come from the manufacturer.
[02:07] <zykotick9> hassen_: wait, you don't think manufacturers make driver for windows... that's funny.
[02:08] <bekks> vantage: And the errors shows at the end indicate it is already failing.
[02:08] <vantage> bekks: I figured as much. Can you explain how you can tell that from those lines?
[02:10] <vocx> hassen_, what you could argue is that there is no hardware manufacturer specifically catering towards the open source community. They would be able to make drivers for Linux, Windows, and just about anything else. Hardware always contains "secrets", patents and stuff, so that's the tricky part.
[02:11] <bekks> vantage: unrecoverable sectors mean: every harddisk has a bunch of sectors not visible for normal usage, since they are used for replacing failed sectors "silently". If these hidden sectors are used up, vital sectors start to fail. Thats when you should replace the drive immediately.
[02:11] <bekks> vantage: In addition, you have a lot of unrecoverable errors, etc. - thats when the drive starts to die.
[02:13] <vantage> bekks: I guess I'm just not seeing "unrecoverable" in the output, where are you seeing that?
[02:14] <bekks> vantage: line 77.
[02:14] <vantage> bekks: ah, uncorrectable and the value of 100?
[02:15] <hassen_> vocx, so that means ubuntu belongs to the open source community?
[02:15] <bekks> vantage: raw value 2.
[02:15] <bekks> hassen_: of course.
[02:15] <anchx> I am having troubles installing bcrypt on 12.04, python3.2 setup.py install is failing everytime, any idea?
[02:15] <zykotick9> hassen_: ahhh, ubuntu belongs to canonical.  bekks - there is no "community"
[02:16] <vantage> bekks: What does the 2 mean? 2 uncorrectable errors have occurred?
[02:16] <bekks> vantage: yes.
[02:16] <onca> fsck, why would a lvm partition scheme drop an entire luks partition and how do rescue it?!?
[02:17] <bekks> onca: lvm doesnt have partitions, lvm uses volumes. And you have done something to "drop" it. You can recover it from your full backup.
[02:17] <onca>  i dont have a full backup
[02:17] <vantage> bekks: Gotcha. As far as replacing the drive goes, is there a way to migrate to larger drives? Or would it be better to just build a new array and copy the data over?
[02:18] <bekks> onca: then you have no chance to recover.
[02:19] <bekks> vantage: that depends on your type of RAID, etc.
[02:19] <vantage> bekks: RAID 1, 2 drives
[02:19] <bekks> vantage: HW/SW RAID, etc.?
[02:19] <vantage> bekks: one of which has now failed :)
[02:19] <vantage> bekks: SW
[02:20] <bekks> vantage: dmraid/lvm/zfs?
[02:22] <vantage> bekks: lvm, not dmraid, not zfs
[02:22] <vantage> bekks: ext3
[02:23] <bekks> vantage: you are using lvm to create a RAID1? That needs three drives, as you know.
[02:23] <vantage> bekks: it's been around for a while
[02:23] <vantage> bekks: no, mdadm (or whatever the pre-dmraid method of raid setup was), with LVM on top
[02:23] <hassen_> erm what's the command that echos the kernel version?
[02:24] <bekks> hassen_: uname
[02:24] <hassen_> bekks, thanks.
[02:24] <vipintruder> uname -r
[02:24] <hassen_> yes
[02:27] <hassen_> in ATI site,i want to download my gpu's driver ,they say that the supported kernel version is up tp 3.4,while my ubuntu 13.10 kernel version is 3.11.0-12-generic
[02:27] <hassen_> it won't be installed,no?
[02:30] <jmgk> can people highlight me ?
[02:30] <jmgk> I want to see if Irssi works
[02:30] <zykotick9> jmgk: no
[02:31] <jmgk> try again
[02:31] <zykotick9> jmgk: no
[02:31] <jmgk> ok
[02:31] <jmgk> lol
[02:31] <vocx> In Windows, I have seemingly two display drivers in my notebook: Intel HD Graphics Family and Nvidia NVS 4200M. How can this be? By the way, I cannot check this in Ubuntu, because I'm running it in a virtual machine.
[02:31] <zykotick9> jmgk: hope it worked ;)
[02:31] <jmgk> tanks
[02:31] <jmgk> hmm
[02:32] <jmgk> hold on
[02:32] <jmgk> try again zykotick9
[02:32] <zykotick9> jmgk: no
[02:32] <zykotick9> jmgk: that was the last one.
[02:33] <jmgk> ow
[02:33] <jmgk> now
[02:37] <jmgk> zykotick9:  one more time
[02:38] <zykotick9> sorry your signal to noise ration is WAY to high.  this isn't "test" my irssi config channel.  good luck.
[02:39] <zykotick9> jmgk: notice i didn't include you nick above?  ooops ;)
[02:39] <jmgk> hmm
[02:39] <jmgk> heh
[02:41] <codygman> How would I recompile this into a deb for 13.04: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/1:0.23.0-0ubuntu1 Just download it and use dpkg-deb? Sorry, been a while since I packaged something and that was for plain Debian.
[02:41] <codygman> Need that because of the intuos support btw
[02:41] <jmgk> Yes got it working
[02:43] <sage__> hello i would like some very basic guidelines in crosscompiling a normal linux program for an AirOS machine
[02:45] <sage__> i've never done crosscompiling before and now i wanted to try it on this AirOS antenna from my friend
[02:45] <ubuthetechguru> has anyone used the phoronix test suite before? i selected option 1 to run a test but it doesn't do anything
[02:48] <vocx> codygman, I think there are some guides about creating the deb. These would be more useful than asking the irc channel. But yeah, I think basically getting the source, and following some instructions and dpkg-deb.
[02:48] <codygman> vocx: Thanks for the input, I found a few of those. Actually I think I got it sorted ;)
[02:49] <hassen_> why is it well said that ubuntu (or other linux OS) can't be infected with viruses?
[02:50] <vocx> sage__, basically you need the crosscompiler, libraries and headers, to the architecture you wish. Then instead of using the normal compiler "gcc", you would use something like "cross-compiler-gcc" on the file you want. What is AirOS anyway?
[02:50] <codygman> hassen_: Permissions is one reason it's harder for viruses to do well with linux. In windows everything is 755 by default. The other bigger argument is that it's not worth virus writers time to make viruses for linux, though that could change according to the market. However there are other reasons, these are just the biggest two taht come to mind for me.
[02:51] <vocx> hassen_, because of the permission structure. If you receive a virus, it will not work on system level directories because it does not have permission. If you run it with root it may, but if you run it with your normal user, it may only affect your home directory.
[02:51] <jmgk> hello hassen_
[02:52] <hassen_> so don't I need an antivirus given that i deeply browse the internet often?
[02:52] <sage__> AirOS is a special operating system for wireless access points
[02:53] <sage__> vocx: Im not sure.. i know it has something to do with wireless access points
[02:53] <Ari-Yang> !antivirus | hassen
[02:53] <codygman> hassen_: If you use firefox+noscript and avoid flash/java web with ubuntu, it's very unlikely you'll get a virus. However, javascript is needed for much of the web and carefully allowing only sites you trust can do a lot in avoiding being infected.
[02:53] <sage__> vocx: my friends dad works in a internet provider and he had one spare antenna with that and he plays around with it
[02:54] <defcon511> someone got a clue how i can get the window hotcorner functions from ubuntu/windows7?
[02:55] <defcon511> when i drag the window on the top corner it just maximise to 1/2 desktop b
[02:56] <sage__> vocx: ive been googling around trying to find out what architecture AirOS uses with no results.. not even in the official wiki
[02:56] <xangua> defcon511: do you have compiz settings manager installed¿
[02:56] <hassen_> understood,but i have  a PC where i often access the win7 OS partition to get some of my data in the other ubuntu's one.
[02:56] <vocx> sage__, which official wiki?
[02:57] <sage__> vocx: ubiquity's, wich is the manufacturer for Nanostation and it's OS
[02:58] <pfifo> hassen_: theres a great linux antivirus in the repos.
[02:59] <pfifo> !info clamav | hassen_
[02:59] <sage__> Nanostation is the name of the hardware for AirOS
[02:59] <hassen_> pfifo, i see,thanks.
[02:59] <vocx> hassen_, then you can install the antivirus and scan that folder regularly. Many viruses are hidden in Windows, but once you pass them to a Linux system you can see then in plain sight, as .exe files. Then you realise they are viruses, and you can just erase them. They won't do anything when they are in Linux as they don have permissions to do anything and the system folders that they target don't exist.
[03:00] <hassen_> vocx, understood,thanks.
[03:01] <defcon511> @xangua thanks looked it up and im installing it right now, i think it will fix my problem

[03:21] <foureyes779> Does Ubuntu have a PPC version that is active ?
[03:22] <sage__> hmm anyone know how to crosscompile for MIPS CPU architecture?
[03:22] <jmgk> nhm
[03:22] <jmgk> nope
[03:24] <ObrienDave> foureyes779, there is a server edition available
[03:24] <foureyes779> ObrienDave: do they have an IRC channel ?
[03:25] <ObrienDave> that i don't know

[03:25] <foureyes779> ObrienDave: ok, I currently run debian PPC, but having a prob with a Radeon card and not finding any support at all with the issue, so looking at other options

[03:26] <buu> erek: What does manually starting it say?
[03:27] <erek> buu: where's the log? /var/log?
[03:28] <buu> erek: That would be a good guess
[03:28] <erek> they're empty
[03:28] <erek> the log files
[03:29] <buu> erek: All of them?

[03:36] <erek> the whole thing
[03:37] <erek> buu: how do i get my mysql server to work with my apache2 server?
[03:38] <buu> erek: Apache2 is a webserver, mysql is a sql server, they have nothing in common
[03:38] <erek> darn
[03:38] <buu> erek: What are you actually trying to accomplish?
[03:38] <erek> buu: i wanted to use php to access a sql a database
[03:38] <erek> i got mod php installed with my apache2 server
[03:38] <buu> erek: PHP is a programming language with libraries to access sql servers
[03:38] <riccrouch> you need phpmyadmin
[03:38] <buu> This is mostly irrelevant to apache
[03:39] <riccrouch> http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php
[03:39] <vantage> bekks: Thanks for your help!
[03:39] <buu> erek: what kind of php program?
[03:40] <erek> buu: something.php accessed through the apache2 server
[03:40] <buu> erek: You're not being terribly specific.
[03:41] <erek> i want to create a database
[03:41] <erek> in mysql
[03:41] <erek> and then i want access the database from a php file
[03:41] <geoffmcc> buu: you will need to install php5-mysql, but if you apt-get install phpmyadmin it will get you everything needed. Not required, but easier to administer the databases
[03:41] <riccrouch> erek: phpmyadmin is a web-based front-end to a mysql database. You can create and edit databases from there.
[03:42] <geoffmcc> wrong person sorry
[03:42] <riccrouch> If you are just looking to write a PHP script to access the database, you don't need any extra stuff
[03:42] <erek> riccrouch: do you think phpmyadmin is a cheap way to administer a database?
[03:42] <erek> is it better to do everything by hand
[03:42] <riccrouch> Cheap?  It's free
[03:43] <erek> cheap as in like cheating
[03:43] <erek> instead of doing it all by hand
[03:43] <riccrouch> Basically its a graphical interface to the database.  You would use it to create and load/edit a database.  You can use code to dynamically create pages and edit the database from code.
[03:43] <erek> will i be cheating myself out of learning
[03:43] <erek> understanding how sql works
[03:43] <mnemon> not really, you'll see the scripts through that too
[03:43] <riccrouch> Not at all.  Used for different purpose
[03:44] <riccrouch> phpmyadmin has an "SQL" window where you can write pure SQL code if you want to.
[03:44] <mnemon> also, leaving it accessible to the world on production server is a very bad idea.
[03:45] <dondopa> Bind9 is hard to configure
[03:45] <riccrouch> I think by default phpmyadmin is only available on the localhost
[03:45] <dondopa> Rocket science
[03:45] <riccrouch> but that can be changed, so be careful
[03:45] <dondopa> My father configured Bind9  and forwarded the DNS servers of my ISP
[03:45] <dondopa> its set up and running but we still cant get it to resolve names for our apache web server sites
[03:46] <dondopa> If I had a job that requiredme to do this I would havebeen fired
[03:47] <erek> i got my myphpadmin installed
[03:47] <erek> how do i access it?
[03:47] <Boohbah> dondopa: and this is a failure of bind9?
[03:47] <dondopa> No it is a failure of me
[03:47] <dondopa> Because I am not a machine
[03:47] <riccrouch> erek" usually http://<server address here>/phpMyAdmin
[03:48] <dondopa> BIND9 is when a person cannot help but say to himself"This is just too much linux"
[03:48] <dondopa> WAy too much linux mane!
[03:48] <riccrouch> sorry.... phpmyadmin, not phpMyAdmin
[03:48] <mnemon> dondopa: define a zone, write few A records in there, done.
[03:48] <dondopa> will that make it resolve the names so that I can access ampache on my tablet?
[03:49] <foureyes779> peterrooney: welcome back
[03:49] <mnemon> as long as you use that server as your dns server, yes
[03:49] <dondopa> When I use nslookup it gives me the address of the router
[03:49] <dondopa> is that ok?
[03:50] <mnemon> i guess it depends on how your router is configured and where the bind is.
[03:51] <dondopa> BIND has got me in a bind...
[03:51] <xmetal> no such thing as "Too much linux" if you ask me
[03:51] <xmetal> :)
[03:52] <geoffmcc> dondopa: if your just looking for function and dont mind sharing your domain, you could always setup your domain on afraid.org for free
[03:53] <dondopa> lol
[03:53] <dondopa> Good to see you fine sorcerers have a good sense of humour
[04:00] <riccrouch> erek: hope that helped...
[04:01] <erek> riccrouch: working on it
[04:02] <riccrouch> erek: were you able to at least access phpmyadmin?
[04:04] <erek> riccrouch: http://pool-141-158-220-229.altnpa.east.verizon.net/phpmyadmin/
[04:04] <erek> riccrouch: try it
[04:07] <john_doe_jr> I'm trying to build from source but I'm getting errors and they scroll too fast…how do I reroute the errors on the console to a file or something?
[04:07] <riccrouch> erek: seems to be working... but without the username and password (WHICH YOU SHOULD **NOT*** GIVE OUT ON IRC!) there's not much to see from here.
[04:08] <riccrouch> erek: From there, just enter the username and password for your mysql user and away you go.
[04:08] <sandman13> what would be the best downloader for ubuntu? It must support resume and should act as a download accelerator.
[04:08] <erek> hmm

[04:21] <MarGul> Hi I have just unstalled ubuntu server 12.04 and I have changed ip address to static (been pinging it from my laptop and I know its connected to my network). Then I installed nginx running the command aptitude install nginx. The version of nginx is 1.5.6. When I then, on my laptop, type in my servers ip address in my webbrowser I get nothing. following this manual(http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/11/how-to-set-up-a-safe-and-secure-
[04:21] <MarGul> web-server/2/)
[04:22] <Eliyahu`> how do i set the refresh rate in ubuntu 13.10
[04:22] <Eliyahu`> i need to sync my monitor to 48hz or 72hz for video recording live on set
[04:22] <zykotick9> Eliyahu`: are you using an LCD?
[04:23] <Eliyahu`> yes
[04:23] <Eliyahu`> im using LED sorry
[04:23] <vocx> john_doe_jr, for example "make program &> my_file"
[04:24] <Eliyahu`> i also want to remove the mirror screens icon thats popping up
[04:24] <vocx> Eliyahu`, LED is just the illumination source, but probably your screen is an LCD (lit by LEDs and not fluorescent lamps).
[04:24] <Eliyahu`> yes then its a LCD
[04:25] <Eliyahu`> vocx:  its Westinghouse UW40TC1W 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LED HDTV
[04:27] <Eliyahu`> vocx:  im trying to sync it to a canon XL1 video recording camera because i have a studio set and im running visual through ubuntu desktop
[04:27] <Eliyahu`> vocx:  the video display through that westinghouse monitor on the set will be recorded by the canon xl` and i need to sync the refresh rates
[04:27] <erek> hey guys can you test out phpmyadmin for me?
[04:27] <vocx> Eliyahu`, no idea
[04:28] <Eliyahu`> vocx:  where is the linux video community?
[04:28] <httphate> all dead
[04:29] <ObrienDave> Eliyahu`, a screen recording software would not do the same thing?
[04:29] <Eliyahu`> ObrienDave:  what do you mean
[04:29] <Eliyahu`> ObrienDave:  im displaying imagry and video onto the studio sets 40 inch monitor live for video production like news anchor
[04:30] <ObrienDave> o i c
[04:30] <Eliyahu`> i got a 20 foot green screen behind the studio desk which has the 40 inch minotor on the desk
[04:30] <Eliyahu`> im shooting the set live and need to sync the refresh rate from the monitor to the camera
[04:31] <vocx> Eliyahu`, what you basically is to avoid the flashing of the screen once you record? I have no idea if the refresh rate of the screen can be arbitrarily adjusted. I don't think that's the case, only a few frequencies would be available. But seems you know more about video than me anyway.
[04:32] <Eliyahu`> adjustign the rrefresh rate in ubuntu wont matter then will it if the monitor produces 120hz refresh rate right?
[04:34] <Lorde> Hello
[04:34] <vocx> Eliyahu`, Right. I mean, that's controlled by the electronics in the monitor. I guess it is not intended for people to change it just because they want.
[04:35] <ObrienDave> erek, seems to login ok
[04:35] <Eliyahu`> vocx:  my HD Canon Rebel t5i im recording with right now just did a test shot works on the current system but my canon xlr didnt

[04:39] <cfhowlett> !hardware|arooni-mobile,
[04:40] <erek> how?
[04:40] <erek> heh
[04:41] <erek> i've never gotten into that, riccrouch
[04:42] <vocx> arooni-mobile, in general, an external hard drive works fine with any Linux distribution. It's a fairly simple device. It just needs FAT or NTFS file system. And if you don't plan on using it on Windows you can reformat it to Ext4 file system or other file system that Linux can use.
[04:52] <MarGul> Hi I have just unstalled ubuntu server 12.04 and I have changed ip address to static (been pinging it from my laptop and I know its connected to my network).

[05:09] <cfhowlett> trelane, old equipment?  xubuntu or lubuntu are recommended
[05:09] <trelane> cfhowlett, realizing that, this should work as everything is greenlit, and opengl is supported, the problem is the opengl module isn't loading when xorg starts

[05:11] <kkkkkkk> hi all, i am using sakis 3g to connect to internet, because modem manager is too slow to detect my modem, it takes few minutes to detect, sometimes it doesn't detect, then i need to re-insert modem, and all, i want to automate sakis 3g connection, everytime i start sakis 3g, it asks for password, i solved it using /etc/sudoers file, but i want that it does not ask for username and password for dial up connection, because most of times, In India, all operators
[05:11] <kkkkkkk> how to do that
[05:11] <kkkkkkk> how to set custom_Pass varibale in sakis3g
[05:11] <cfhowlett> trelane, unity really doesn't run well on old boxes.  the easy fix is to boot to the command line, run sudo apt-get install lxde and sudo apt-get install xfce4  then login to one or the other
[05:11] <kkkkkkk> and custom user also
[05:12] <trelane> cfhowlett, this is a dual core box with 4gb of ram, and a dedicated video card.
[05:12] <xmetal> !lubuntu
[05:13] <kkkkkkk> trelane: unity has still problems like crashing on Ubuntu 12.04, bla bla, i suggest you to use KDE or Lxde, according to your need,
[05:13] <cfhowlett> trelane, it "should run"!  but until you figure out why unity if fragging, you might consider a non-unity desktop environment.
[05:14] <cfhowlett> trelane, if I had to guess, I'd start with eyeing the video card...
[05:14] <kkkkkkk> trelane: KDE is also fine, if you were a windows user, you will not feel something different in GUI, except performance and stability
[05:14] <xmetal> unity runs fine on my AMD 4GB RAM "2009 laptop"
[05:15] <trelane> kkkkkkk, I'm a gentoo user.  I'm just trying to get this box to work for a friend, how do I get ubuntu to switch from fglrx to the opensource driver
[05:15] <dondopa> kkk
[05:15] <trelane> xmetal, which video card and are you using fglrx?
[05:16] <kkkkkkk> how to set custom_PASS and custom_username variable in SAKIS 3G SCRIPT
[05:18] <jmgk> hi kkkkkkk
[05:18] <kkkkkkk> trelane: type additional in UNITY DASH> select ADDITIONAL DRIVERS> IF activated, then deactivate

[05:20] <kkkkkkk> trelane: press window button or click to top left button
[05:20] <sandman13> which is better? Clam AV or Avast
[05:20] <kkkkkkk> type in search box
[05:20] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: no one is better
[05:20] <ncrosby> kkk, that would require unity to be started.
[05:21] <sandman13> why kkkkkkk
[05:21] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: because i have tested both of them, even AVG
[05:22] <xmetal> I like Avast myself, though i feel this the wrong channel for that question
[05:22] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: better not to use anyone of them, let your system run smoothley, they will just aquire some space on your hard drive
[05:22] <sandman13> so what would be the choice? install none
[05:22] <xmetal> "best" is a matter of opinion
[05:22] <xmetal> no AV is not the answer if you ask me but this is a question related to a different OS
[05:23] <xmetal> (OT is otherwards)
[05:23] <cfhowlett> kkkkkkk, eh?  the amount of space required by either of those programs is trivial
[05:23] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: if you are much more curios, use dual boot with windows, antivirus updates are provided more freq. to windows users and their detection is much better than them
[05:23] <kkkkkkk> than linux AV
[05:24]  * xmetal stops watching Khan Academy video
[05:24] <sandman13> i need a AV for basic protection
[05:24] <xmetal> windows, sandman?
[05:24] <cfhowlett> sandman13, so install it on windows
[05:24] <ncrosby> trelane; if Unity won't start, I tend to have to reinstall the system. You may be able to work your way around it, but for me that would almost take more time.
[05:24] <kkkkkkk> Linux is already, secure from windows viruses
[05:25] <cfhowlett> !virus
[05:25] <xmetal> i'd (yes i kjnow this is ot for this channel) go with Avast
[05:25] <kkkkkkk> trelane: yes, it will take much much more time,
[05:25] <trelane> I'm going to work around it, thanks
[05:25] <xmetal> nothing is perfect .. ."best" anything is a matter of opnion like i said
[05:27] <cfhowlett> !best
[05:27] <trelane> lets try a custom xorg.conf
[05:28] <sandman13> i read somewhere that malwares still affect linux boxes
[05:29] <trelane> sandman13, malware != virus, please look at something like rkhunter if you suspect a rootkit (hint, you probably don't have one)
[05:29] <sandman13> ah here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicSecurity
[05:30] <Beldar> !av | sandman13
[05:30] <sandman13> read that Beldar but thanks anyway
[05:31] <Beldar> ah did not see above my prompt
[05:32] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: use bit-defender, it is easy to update and has better GUI
[05:32] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: if you like to use AV
[05:32] <sandman13> kkkkkkk: is it registration free?
[05:33] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: no, just give your email id, they will give it to you for 1 year
[05:34]  * xmetal gives up
[05:34] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: you may use seconday ID, tertiory ID for that :D
[05:34] <m-abhijit> !packageinfo ruby
[05:35] <sandman13> kkkkkkk: does these antivirus updates are based on Window's malware?
[05:36] <kkkkkkk> sandman13: i installed it, sometimes, you may face problems during updates, if you are using a proxy server, LINUX version and updates are always given less priority over windows versions
[05:36] <kkkkkkk> i suspect you will get same updates
[05:36] <sandman13> okay
[05:36] <kkkkkkk> ask Bit defender about the same

[06:22] <meddy> did you see my pastebin?
[06:23] <Beldar> meddy, run cd /etd/apt/sources.list and pastebin all the info.
[06:23] <Beldar>  cd /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:24] <meddy> no such file or file or directory?
[06:24] <Beldar> meddy, cd /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:24] <Beldar> I made a mistake on the first
[06:24] <meddy> not a directory
[06:27] <Beldar> meddy, try sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     be careful when you open it it can be edited
[06:28] <meddy> pastebin everything?
[06:28] <Beldar> meddy, Yes
[06:28] <vocx> meddy, Beldar, no need to use sudo.  The file will be read only.

[06:31] <somsip> Beldar: if this is the same error as he had yesterday, he's removed a load of PPAs but there are still some CDROM:// sources that need to be commented out. I wasn't sure how to do this using Software Centre and had no time to explain how to edit it by hand. Just in case that helps
[06:32] <Guest43474> para conectarme al terra desde aqui?
[06:32] <Beldar> meddy, In the file you opened hit save and try a update at least again now.
[06:32] <Beldar> somsip, thanks, any info helps. ;)
[06:34] <meddy> i think it works but says it up to date but i find it hard to belive it actually is
[06:35] <Beldar> meddy, What you commented out was for the sources to read a cd, on an install that should be this way.
[06:36] <Eliyahu`> any one else having issues with updates not going through and failing right now?

[07:04] <Beldar> Eliyahu`, What does the sources.list say precise or saucy?
[07:04] <Eliyahu`> Beldar:  i thought i had downloded the 13.10 iso for install
[07:04] <Eliyahu`> Beldar:  i may have accidently downloaded the 12.04?
[07:05] <Beldar> Eliyahu`, The ubuntu main  site, there is a problem with it giving you the right ISO.
[07:09] <bl4ckdu5t> How do i change the background of nautilus to transparent as with terminal?
[07:13] <Beldar> bl4ckdu5t, Might be the answer. http://askubuntu.com/questions/5151/can-i-set-up-nautilus-to-use-transparent-background

[07:21] <Eliyahu`> is the GUI the same with 12.04 LTS and 13.10 ?
[07:21] <Eliyahu`> i hadnt used ubuntu since gutsy gibeon
[07:21] <Beldar> Eliyahu`There are downloads on the web beside those and others download links on the main site.
[07:21] <cfhowlett> Eliyahu`, yes: unity
[07:21] <Eliyahu`> cfhowlett:  they both appear the same i see by some screen shots
[07:22] <cfhowlett> Eliyahu`, so ... asked and answered your question?
[07:22] <Beldar> Eliyahu`, 12.04 has 5 years support.
[07:22] <Eliyahu`> cfhowlett:  i read your answer and checked screen shots
[07:23] <Eliyahu`> with all the ubuntu errors with downloading the right ISO they should make it free
[07:23] <Eliyahu`> :P
[07:23]  * Eliyahu` elbows Beldar
[07:26] <Beldar> ouch
[07:26] <Beldar> ;)
[07:27] <jmgk> hey
[07:28] <Vedrit> Anyone know if there is a channel for MONO support?
[07:30] <nezZario> This is really annoying
[07:30] <nezZario> for one, my motd always says there is a new release available 13.10 but I ran this last night and did the upgrade
[07:30] <nezZario> (i guess it completed)
[07:30] <nezZario> when i type it again, it says ther eis no release available
[07:30] <cfhowlett> nezZario, apt-get upgrade will not upgrade your release
[07:32] <Beldar> !alis | Vedrit
[07:32] <nezZario> i didn't say it would
[07:32] <nezZario> i typed do-release-upgrade like the motd keeps telling me to
[07:32] <nezZario> it done a bunch of stuff, i went to sleep
[07:32] <nezZario> it keeps telling me
[07:34] <vocx> !enter | nezZario
[07:37] <nezZario> also, keeps telling me /usr/bin/xauth:  timeout in locking authority file /home/MYUSER/.Xauthority
[07:39] <nezZario> I did some googling, none4 of it really helped.  I rm'd the file.. No go, .. A few things said it needed to be owned by 'machine' user?  No go.  Just really annoying, also it seems the previous deal about the .Xauthority file hangs my logins for 3-4 secs .. The machine is local over a LAN, previously it logged in basically instantly
[07:40] <vocx> nezZario, I don't have much experience with troubleshooting, but I remember whenever you have problems with Xauthority it indicates a problem with permissions, like a broken update and stuff. I've never had such issue, it's just what I hear.
[07:46] <nezZario> Looks like doing apt-get update + upgrade might fix the issue
[07:46] <nezZario> I think the do-release-upgrade may of not of finished .. Should've ran it in screen
[07:46] <cfhowlett> nezZario, upgrade and dist-release are NOT the same command.
[07:48] <helmut_> hi
[07:48] <nezZario> I didn't do dist-release.  Can you give me some context as to how that relates to apt-get update+upgrade?  I only ran do-release-upgrade so the motd would stop bugging me about it
[07:50] <shadej> hi
[07:50] <shadej> I am installing j2ee on ubuntu
[07:50] <shadej> getting this error "/j2eesdk-1_4_03-linux_2.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:50] <shadej> "
[07:50] <cfhowlett> nezZario, easier to send you the ubuntu cheat sheet
[07:51] <shadej> I did "sudo apt-get install libstdc++5" but no change
[07:51] <vocx> shadej, do you want to compile something in Java or just use Java?
[07:51] <cfhowlett> nezZario, OK the .pdf and read
[07:51] <nezZario> When I ran the upgrade, it actually failed and told me to run dpkg --configure -a which seems to be fifinishing the process.. /seems/ to be
[07:51] <shadej> vocx: I want to use jms(which uses j2ee)
[07:52] <vocx> shadej, what is that?
[07:53] <shadej> vocx: jms=>java messaging service. I want to use it to implement publish/subscribe and ppp [clinet-server class]
[07:53] <shadej> vocx: *pp
[07:54] <DoubleMintx> Can someone here help me with an install problem? My keyboard is not being recognized whether I have my keyboard set to 6 key rollover or N key rollover.
[07:56] <shadej> j2ee users on ubuntu?
[07:56] <vocx> shadej, I see there are some packages including something about jms in the repositories. Have you tried installing those before?
[07:57] <vocx> shadej, you seem to be trying to install something from the sources. I think that is not a good idea. Most developing tools and libraries are available from the repositories.
[07:58] <vocx> !ubottu | shadej I install the JDK first, and see if that includes the jms libraries that you need
[07:59] <vocx> shadej, I did "aptitude search jms" and some additional packages are shown like "libspring-jms-java", "libjboss-jms-java"
[07:59] <shadej> vocx: ok let me check again
[08:00] <Vinnie_win> Is there an easy way for me to upgrade my gcc to the latest stable version on my Ubuntu virtual box?
[08:00] <vocx> shadej, by the way, I messed up the ubottu message
[08:00] <Vinnie_win> I already have an older one installed.
[08:00] <vocx> !ubottu | shadej
[08:00] <vocx> !java | shadej
[08:01] <vocx> shadej, LOL, I did it again, but the last one worked, sorry for spamming.
[08:01] <shadej> vocx: I have installed java and even I have eclipse
[08:01] <vocx> Vinnie_win, which version you have?
[08:02] <vocx> Vinnie_win, why would you want the most recent version?
[08:02] <Vinnie_win> vocx: I managed to write c++ code that blows up gcc 4.7.3
[08:02] <nezZario> good l ord
[08:02] <Vinnie_win> vocx: And I want as much c++11  support as I can muster
[08:02] <meddy> sosip: are you there?
[08:02] <Vinnie_win> voc: In my defense I said the latest "stable" version :-)
[08:03] <nezZario> also, anyone have any idea why very ocassionally, grub doesn't auto-boot after a timeout?  it's the darndest thing.  my ubuntu box here is a headless machine, I use it as a router/gateway for the rest of my network
[08:03] <Alpha-Omega> Can I ask why when you're installing a minimal install with the minimal CD of Ubuntu, things such as Python are installed?
[08:03] <Vinnie_win> What happens to the older version of gcc and the older version of the standard libraries when I issue "sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8" after adding the PPA?
[08:04] <vocx> Vinnie_win, my latest is 4.8.1, I'm running Ubuntu 13.10, what are you running?
[08:04] <nezZario> once and a while, my netowrk seems to loose internet.  every time, i have to unplug a monitor from a normal workstation, plug it up, and it's stuck at the grub boot screen.  i have to unplug a keyboard, and press 'enter'
[08:05] <vocx> Alpha-Omega, you mean without GUI? Perhaps there are a few scripts that depend on Python. And probably the base version of Python is small enough, like 20 MB, perhaps.
[08:05] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: python is pretty minimal.  you can probably force remove it if you really don't want it, but I think some nonessential but fairly important scripts might rely on them
[08:05] <Alpha-Omega> vocx: It's the base install
[08:06] <Alpha-Omega> nezZario: It's just that I did base install, X server, i3 and I was at 9xx MB, during the install Python was just one of the packages I saw.
[08:06] <Alpha-Omega> Is there a link that shows what all the base packages that come installed are?
[08:07] <nezZario> I can see the confusion there, I'm not sure why it would offer it to you as an option if it was already in the base
[08:07] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I don think anything will happen to the old compiler. After all, compilers are more or less independent. You will have double tools, and double libraries, depending on the versions, so it should be fine.
[08:09] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: It looks like some pretty important things are python, namely do-release-upgrade, etc.  if you have a working ubuntu box somewhere try "file /usr/bin/* | grep Python"
[08:10] <vocx> Alpha-Omega, I think in Ubuntu many things are tied in by Python, almost like a substitute Bash.
[08:11] <nezZario> Really the only important thing I see is do-release-upgrade
[08:12] <Vinnie_win> vocx: When I install gcc 4.8.2 will the apt-get mechanism change all the necessary configuration files and settings so that the new gcc and standard libraries are the "current toolchain?"
[08:12] <nezZario> But none the less, you probably want it.. ;)
[08:12] <Vinnie_win> or is that what update-alternatives is for?
[08:13] <Alpha-Omega> nezZario: pastebin.com/vQa6BV4r
[08:13] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I think so. But then again, during compilation it is you who chose the compiler in a makefile for example. Perhaps the only thing the installer will do is change the symlink to /usr/bin/gcc to the newest one.
[08:13] <Vinnie_win> my build system expects the symlink I guess, because I see no mention of version.
[08:13] <Vinnie_win> But after issuing "sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 50", "gcc --version" still shows 4.7.3
[08:14] <Alpha-Omega> Would be nice if all distributions provided a page with a listing of all base install packages
[08:14] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: Yeah, I mean I was just demonstrating that's all what relies on Python in that directory.  I didn't need your pastebin :)
[08:14] <Alpha-Omega> nezZario: ohh ok :)
[08:14] <Vinnie_win> After running update-alternatives, etc/alternatives/gcc still points to the old one
[08:14] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: You could install it and then list out the packages
[08:14] <Alpha-Omega> nezZario: yeah, I guess you're right
[08:16] <Alpha-Omega> One more question, when you have a liveCD and do things like updates which are more than the amount of ram you have, or download a file that's larger than the amount of ram you have, where are these files stored? How is it even possible to download these files or do these updates?
[08:17] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I guess you can change the symlink yourself.
[08:17] <nezZario> I don't think it would download that much stuff, Alpha-Omega
[08:17] <nf7> Hi, if I set a /etc/crontab job to run a command as a specific user, will it run if the user isn't logged in?
[08:17] <nezZario> Also, it may do compressed RAM
[08:18] <nezZario> Or a compressed ramdisk to be precise,
[08:18] <buu> Alpha-Omega: Unless you have swap on the disk or the livecd medium, you can't, etc.
[08:18] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/ubuntu-minimal that might help
[08:19] <nezZario> I thought there was a base or base-files package or something, but that may be debian.  I only use ubuntu at home ...
[08:19] <Alpha-Omega> nezZario buu so would older files disappear when new ones were downloaded and your ram usage was completely used up
[08:20] <nezZario> I have no idea, .. Test it out?  Maybe they changed the apt utils to do 'clean' to rm the tarballs after use since I don't think apt does it on it's own .. I really have no idea I don't use live cd's on a regular basis
[08:20] <vocx> Alpha-Omega, I think you are not able to download "new" files since there is no space left?
[08:21] <nezZario> I mean yeah, I'm sure you'll get an out of disk issue if there isn't anywhere to put it.. It isn't going to defy physical limitations
[08:21] <nezZario> Nor would it willingly write to a disk unless you tell it to in some shape or form
[08:22] <Alpha-Omega> ohh ok, thanks
[08:23] <Alpha-Omega> Interesting, minimal install shows about 700 packages installed
[08:23] <Alpha-Omega> "dpkg --list | wc" sure is helpful :)
[08:24] <Alpha-Omega> "dpkg --list | wc -l"*
[08:24] <Vinnie_win> vocx: do I have to do some manual configuration to tell gcc where to find the new standard library or does a specific build of gcc know where to look for the standard includes and libraries?
[08:25] <nezZario> Alpha-Omega: If you have time, I wouldn't mind seeing the list pastebin'd if you would /msg it to me
[08:26] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I think it's something like "gcc -std=c++11" or whatever the option is, and then it will use the standard, otherwise it may fall back to C99
[08:28] <Vinnie_win> vocx: No...thats not what I mean. Each gcc brings with it, its own set of header files and static/dynamic libraries for the standard C++ library. How does the compiler/linker know which directroy in the file system to look for the matching headers?
[08:28] <Vinnie_win> Is that something I have to set up or does the executable just "know" beacuse it uses its name to build the path?
[08:28] <Vinnie_win> I already manually created the link in /etc/alternatives
[08:29] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I think the executable just knows where to look. It's magic. I've never done any configuration at least, just run gcc.
[08:30] <Vinnie_win> Thats music to my ears.
[08:30] <Vinnie_win> execpt that now when I build, gcc cries that "cc1" cannot be found.
[08:30] <Vinnie_win> maybe something else I need to manually symlink
[08:30] <vocx> Vinnie_win, which Linux have you used before? You seem to not be familiar with the Buntu ways.
[08:31] <Vinnie_win> vocx: I use Windows but in my defense I learned C on my own purey from the K&R book and on a Unix mainframe via dilup.
[08:31] <Vinnie_win> *dialup.
[08:31] <vocx> Vinnie_win, cc1 is the preprocessor? I'm a bit rusty myself.
[08:31] <Vinnie_win> And you're right I'm not familiar with the Ubuntu ways. I only switch to my Ubunty virtual box so I can compile there and run the unit tests to make sure I didnt break anything. I do my main development in Windows.
[08:32] <Vinnie_win> After I manually update the symlink I noticed it looked different. Let me study it again.
[08:32] <Vinnie_win> Okay, here's the difference. Originally, ls -la in /etc/alternatives showed gcc -> gcc 4.7.1 something
[08:32] <Vinnie_win> Now, it shows gcc (both in green). I guess I screwed up the link
[08:33] <Vinnie_win> I used ln /usr/lib/gcc-4.8 gcc    from the /etc/alternatives dir. Did i Need some flags to ln ?
[08:34] <Vinnie_win> maybe I did hard instead of symbolic
[08:34] <vocx> Vinnie_win, like "ln -s", I always forget the options of "ln", so I do a "man ln" everytime.
[08:35] <Vinnie_win> Yeah. I did ln -- help. But that doesn't really give me that much when I dont know what I'm supposed to be doing anyway (lol)
[08:35] <_root_> I have to add my first IP to my VPS this way http://paste.ubuntu.com/6497998/ and because of that I cant get the eth0:0 to IP alias. could you give me a clue as to what should I do to get eth0:0 working
[08:35] <vocx> Vinnie_win,  By the way, I would recommend the Programming Talk in the Ubuntuforums.org. You can learn a few trick by hanging out there.
[08:35] <wlightning_> as of 13.10, my laptop appears to boot in airplane mode every boot, is there a way to change the default or have it use the last state?
[08:36] <Vinnie_win> vocx: That's a forum and not IRC right?
[08:36] <vocx> Vinnie_win, Yep. Quite useful too.
[08:36] <Vinnie_win> Oh! I can read that while I wait. Thanks.
[08:37] <vocx> Vinnie_win, I don't have a /etc/alternatives/gcc. My /usr/bin/gcc points to /usr/bin/gcc-4.8, so I would change the symlink there, but not sure for you.
[08:37] <Vinnie_win> I was able to fix the symlink after I learned the proper pronunciation and intonations and hand gestures.
[08:38] <Vinnie_win> success!!! woohoo
[08:38] <rasajeruk> why
[08:38] <vocx> Vinnie_win, lol.
[08:38] <Vinnie_win> rasajeruk: You talkin to me?
[08:38] <rasajeruk> yeah
[08:38] <Vinnie_win> oh man...I want to scream now.
[08:39] <Vinnie_win> So....the same code that was making gcc 4.7.1 blow up is now crashing 4 8!!!!!
[08:40] <maxiaojun> any gui man page viewer for ubuntu 12.04+ ?
[08:40] <vocx> Vinnie_win, to use the latest standard, you definitely need to add some switches, like g++ --std=c++0x or something. I've read that before. Otherwise the compiler uses the previous, more stable, standard.
[08:41] <Vinnie_win> vocx: Yeah, I have all that in my build file. The problem is that some new template code I wrote is somehow making the compiler CRASH
[08:41] <Vinnie_win> I'm trying to narrow it down to a reproducible code sample.
[08:45] <Alpha-Omega> netsplit?
[08:55] <shadej> how to install j2ee on ubuntu?
[08:59] <vocx> shadej, Are you sure it's not the JDK that you already installed?
[09:00] <shadej> vocx: yeah
[09:03] <vocx> shadej, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1254944 It says in that thread that J2EE is a specification not an actual program. It says that Sun's implementation is Glassfish which is in the repos. have you tried installing that?

[09:21] <afidegnum> hi all, anyone familiar with zoneminder? I am stucked here I need hand
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: best is to shoot your specific issue in chat here mate
[09:22] <afidegnum> ok, thanks, I am trying to set up an online video surveillance using zoneminder
[09:22] <afidegnum> the video will be stored into a vps server
[09:23] <afidegnum> but will be recorded from an end house, i.e. home, office
[09:23] <afidegnum> and streamed to the remote server.
[09:23] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: and you are stuck where exaclty?
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: you need a howto to config this layout?
[09:25] <afidegnum> yes, with few questions,
[09:25] <afidegnum> first, I have an IP camera
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: i see freenode has a #zoneminder channel mate, maybe they might help you on the road :p
[09:26] <afidegnum> how do I need a desktop app which will help stream the video to zm server
[09:26] <afidegnum> I am there and no one is responding
[09:27] <cloneG> hello, trying to download a torrent with firefox I get this popup: http://postimg.org/image/48n84wx77/ how am I supposed to choose bittorrent in ubuntu 12.04?
[09:28] <richf> \window close
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: right mouse click on a torrent and choose application transmission as default
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: or in firefox choose default app transmission
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: or browse manually to transmission-gtk
[09:29] <cloneG> lotuspsychje: path to transmission-gtk?
[09:30] <cloneG> lotuspsychje: where are usually all applications in ubuntu stored? I cant find much at usr/bin
[09:31] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: try usr/share/applications
[09:31] <cloneG> lotuspsychje: thanks
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: did you find the http:// zoneminder web config?
[09:32] <cloneG> lotuspsychje: not there
[09:32] <afidegnum> no
[09:33] <afidegnum> you mean on /zm ?
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: after you installed zm it has a webadress to config it all i think
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[09:35] <afidegnum> ok
[09:36] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: open zoneminder in webbrowser: http://serverip/zm
[09:36] <afidegnum> ok,
[09:36] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: on wich ubuntu version are you?
[09:36] <lotuspsychje> cloneG: transmission should be installed by default..
[09:37] <afidegnum> I was reading you can stream video from vlc to zoneminder, how possible?
[09:37] <afidegnum> can you provide a link to that?
[09:37] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: you can open an url with vlc, thats correct.. never tryed it with a specific zoneminder ip server yet
[09:38] <cloneG> lotusspsychje: 12.04, but I dont know where default applications executables are stored if any
[09:38] <afidegnum> that's where I am confused
[09:44] <afidegnum> so is zoneminder which streams the videos to vlc or the other way round?
[09:44] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: not sure mate, never done it myself..but i think you need the ip of your vps/passwords
[09:45] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: the vps will stream the url to vlc, vlc is just the client that will show it
[09:46] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: unless you want stream from your own machine, where the video recording happens?
[09:46] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: the vps will then only be used to store the video's
[09:46] <afidegnum> yes, that's what I am looking for
[09:46] <afidegnum> exactly
[09:46] <afidegnum> That's what I want to do.
[09:47] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: then you need your own internal ip zoneminder server to stream url to vlc
[09:47] <afidegnum> because i don't have enough processing resources, I need to do that from the end pc,
[09:47] <afidegnum> then store the video to the VPC so I can view or play them when I am away, online
[09:47] <forte> ....
[09:47] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: try http://<IP_ADDRESS>/zm
[09:48] <afidegnum> so meaning vlc will be available online to stream the videos right ?
[09:48] <afidegnum> and I want to have a multi-user setup as well,
[09:48] <afidegnum> different user with different videos
[09:49] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: you can do both ways...stream url's with vlc on remote, and stream them localy from your machine
[09:49] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: maybe the #vlc guys can give you a hand howto do it properly
[09:49] <afidegnum> ok
[09:50] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: but i would start with own http zoneminder config
[09:51] <afidegnum> ok, let me get this clearer, on the desktop, I install zoneminder there, stream video to a VPS serer having also zoneminder?
[09:52] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: no its not realy streaming to the vps, only use vps to store recorded video's
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: unless you actually want an online server all the way?
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: and not use your own machine
[09:53] <afidegnum> no
[09:53] <afidegnum> I want to store the recorded videos there
[09:54] <ram_> thor
[09:55] <afidegnum> lotuspsychje: I can use zoneminder to save the videos remotely right?
[09:55] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: normally yes, its all about how you config it
[09:56] <afidegnum> ok
[09:56] <afidegnum> meaning i Have to use a different applications to play the video files online
[09:56] <afidegnum> am I right ?
[09:57] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: depending on how your vps will show those video files, you can stream then in a browser
[09:58] <afidegnum> ok
[09:58] <afidegnum> I understand
[09:58] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: but we are getting a bit offtopic from ubuntu here
[09:58] <afidegnum> yes, I know, please bear with me for that
[09:58] <lotuspsychje> afidegnum: try to config your ubuntu zm correctly and it will be great
[09:59] <afidegnum> ok

[10:28] <Xeno-Genesis> I'm looking for someone who knows GTK+ enough to be dangerous to help me fix an Ubuntu bug
[10:28] <Xeno-Genesis> it's something that affects NetworkManager, I'm reading the code since a week ago and I'd like some guidance
[10:29] <Beldar> Xeno-Genesis, This is support, is there a bug reported?
[10:29] <Xeno-Genesis> sure
[10:29] <Xeno-Genesis> let me find it
[10:30] <SASDOE> guys i'm having trouble accessing my local server by it's domain name at home. i understand i need a loopback or another alternative. I was thinking i could change the computers local dns to one at the domain name registar
[10:30] <ikonia> SASDOE: what you just said makes no sense
[10:30] <SASDOE> is that a good idea or just plain stupid? what happens now is whenever i access my website at it's domain name i reach my router's page.
[10:31] <ikonia> SASDOE: why don't you just explain what's not working as you want
[10:31] <Xeno-Genesis> SASDOE, bug 1179070
[10:32] <SASDOE> ikonia: sorry. Whenever I reach mywebsite.com, it works fine outside my network, but from inside my lan I reach my router, not the server hosting the website
[10:32] <Xeno-Genesis> SASDOE, it's quite easy to reproduce, I'm doing some debugging with Nevimer right now, but I'd like to get a GTK+ expert to help me out with a couple of questions
[10:32] <ikonia> SASDOE: where is the server hosting the website ?
[10:32] <SASDOE> ikonia: on my local network
[10:33] <ikonia> SASDOE: so where does dns point to ?
[10:34] <SASDOE> ikonia: not sure I understand. I would like to land on the same website wheter or not I am at home
[10:34] <SASDOE> Xeno-Genesis: I am not sure that has anything to do with my problem, but thanks.
[10:34] <ikonia> SASDOE: where is dns pointing your URL to
[10:35] <SASDOE> ikonia: my home ip I believe.
[10:35] <ikonia> SASDOE: so it's pointing at your public IP - which is bound to your router ?
[10:37] <SASDOE> ikonia: I have told my router to redirect port 80 to the server though
[10:37] <ikonia> SASDOE: right, so that's why it's not working
[10:37] <ikonia> SASDOE: your router will redirect from the outside world, you're not hitting it from the outside world, which is why you get the router welcome page
[10:39] <SASDOE> ikonia: what I don't understand is it used to work properly without a problem. Also now I have told the router that the server is called website.com, so souldn't the router send them straigt to the server?
[10:40] <ikonia> SASDOE: no, it's port forwarding, not dns resolution
[10:40] <ikonia> SASDOE: telling the router what the server is called means nothing
[10:40] <ikonia> SASDOE: the best way to fix this simpley for you is to put an entry in your /etc/host file on your client
[10:41] <SASDOE> ikonia: that would be a pain given I only own laptops that I constantly move around.
[10:41] <ikonia> SASDOE: then you need to set up dns and routing properly
[10:42] <SASDOE> ikonia: but the port forwarding works fine from the outside.. How can I fix it to work from the inside?
[10:42] <ikonia> SASDOE: setup dns properly
[10:43] <ikonia> SASDOE: or fix your router to act as a passthrough properly
[10:43] <SASDOE> ikonia: router settings are not modifiable because of tv and voip settings
[10:44] <ikonia> SASDOE: then you have a badly designed network
[10:44] <ikonia> SASDOE: I'm assuming you don't manage the dns server hosting your domain
[10:45] <SASDOE> ikonia: tell that to orange
[10:45] <ikonia> SASDOE: errr what has it got to do with orange ?
[10:45] <SASDOE> ikonia: no but I can, I think.
[10:45] <ikonia> SASDOE: who owns/manages the dns server hosting your domain
[10:45] <SASDOE> ikonia: it's their router that cannot have it's setting changed if I still want TV
[10:46] <SASDOE> ikonia: I believe it's gandi, the domain registar I bough my domain from.
[10:46] <ikonia> SASDOE: this problem has nothing to do with orange
[10:46] <ikonia> SASDOE: ok, so who manages the dns for your local network
[10:47] <SASDOE> ikonia: dns for my local network are enforced in the orange router. They cannot be modified.
[10:47] <ikonia> actually, we are moving out of range for a realistic solution for you
[10:47] <ikonia> SASDOE: talk to Orange then
[10:47] <SASDOE> ikonia: that's what I figured.
[10:48] <SASDOE> ikonia: so what I want is a loopback or pass-through?
[10:48] <ikonia> no
[10:48] <ikonia> loopback ????
[10:49] <SASDOE> That's what some people recommend. But they are french so could be translation
[10:49] <ikonia> your router either needs to manage port forwarding better as a clean pass through (doubtful from what you are saying) or you need to map a local host entry to the internal ip address of the server, so it doesn't touch your router - but you said you didn't want to do that
[10:50] <SASDOE> ikonia: Ok I'll give it a try, thanks.

[10:53] <_root_> i put that in sshd_config
[10:56] <Thibultmol> So does anybody know why I am getting this error when use the command 'sudo nautilus -q'
[10:57] <DJones> !gksudo | Thibultmol
[10:59] <Thibultmol> Thank you guys. But something still isn't right. I'm following this guide http://www.noobslab.com/2013/10/add-open-as-rootadministrator-option-in.html but I need to restart nautilus but 'gksudo nautilus -q' doesnt work
[11:03] <MonkeyDust> Thibultmol  it's a ppa, maybe you should contact the maintainer
[11:04] <Thibultmol> right
[11:05] <hst> hi all
[11:10] <Thibultmol> Would do you guys use when you have to open a file or folder'file explorer' as root. Do you use the terminal or some other methode that I don't know baout
[11:10] <ab`> i can't  hide rhythmbox window, alt-f4 fully terminates it just like ctrl-q. any idea?
[11:12] <ikonia> just run the file manager as root
[11:12] <Thibultmol> Guess that's the best option
[11:13] <bekks> thats the worst idea.
[11:14] <ikonia> bekks: why is that the worst idea ?
[11:14] <bekks> Thibultmol: which folder do you talk about?
[11:15] <bekks> ikonia: Because people most likely just mess up permission or break other things when doing their work with a root filemanager and then forget about the fact they are using a root filemanager.
[11:15] <ikonia> bekks: that's their problem if they are not careful
[11:18] <meddy> i havving problems updating my system
[11:20] <Thibultmol> bekks: Just a folder from somewhere that I want to as root
[11:22] <MonkeyDust> meddy  what kind of problems?
[11:27] <MonkeyDust> ab`  click on the sound icon on top, there you find rhytmbox
[11:31] <ab`> MonkeyDust: i just realized rhythmbox only persist when there is something being played, i was foolishly trying without playing anything. thanks.
[11:33] <deanrock0> hi, what does it mean if ubuntu stops around "/dev/mapper/hostname--vg-root: clean, * files, * blocks" but everything else works (ssh and other services)?
[11:34] <ikonia> deanrock0: it's not stopping, it's telling you the file system is clean
[11:40] <aaaaaaaaaaa> Hi, I'm installing ubuntu 12.04.3 alongside windows 8 on a Lenovo y410P laptop and the partition manager is giving me a sliding scale for the resize of the windows GPT partition, but doesn't indicate which side will stay win8 and which will become ubuntu. Also, I just want to note that I had to manually turn on the backlight via FNkey+UParrow to see anything.
[11:42] <aaaaaaaaaaa> I assume people here have installed ubuntu, so is there a Tooltip, or is windows always on the right in the installer, etc?
[11:42] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: you're "resizing" the exisitng partition - the existing partition is windows
[11:43] <aaaaaaaaaaa> sure, but which side is which
[11:43] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: how many partitions are on your system
[11:43] <deanrock0> ikonia: well, i thought that it would drop to login screen ... and not just "hang"
[11:43] <aaaaaaaaaaa> 8
[11:43] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: you have 8 partitions on your system ?
[11:43] <aaaaaaaaaaa> err, 9, 8 hidden
[11:43] <hassen_> Given that i entered this command to download Psysharper [ sudo apt-get install python-geoip python-tk tk8.5 python-pmw tcpdump ] where could I run the [ sudo make install ] command to install that application?
[11:43] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: what are all those partitions for ?
[11:43] <aaaaaaaaaaa> yeah, lenovo ships it that way
[11:43] <aaaaaaaaaaa> good question
[11:44] <aaaaaaaaaaa> probably 1 is for the EFUI bootloader
[11:44] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: I'm not touching that, bottom line is you resize the partition and free spce will be before/after the partition you are resizing depending on where you drag the slider
[11:44] <aaaaaaaaaaa> 1 is for the lenovo window installer since they don't give CDs or stickers anymore. not sure about the rest.
[11:44] <bekks> hassen_: In the directory where you are building the sources of psysharper.
[11:44] <azsxdcfvgbhnjm> ciao
[11:45] <hassen_> bekks, how can I know it?i don't have a clue
[11:45] <azsxdcfvgbhnjm> list
[11:45] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[11:45] <ikonia> azsxdcfvgbhnjm: there are no wares here
[11:45] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia: ok, so the left half is windows and the right side is what is cut off for the new ubuntu install?
[11:45] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: yes, where ever you make the free space
[11:46] <azsxdcfvgbhnjm> hallo
[11:46] <bekks> hassen_: the command you entered installs a bunch of packages - not psysharper. Whereever you got that command from they should explain on how to build psysharper.
[11:46] <azsxdcfvgbhnjm> !list
[11:46] <aaaaaaaaaaa> that information should be added to the installer, it is not clear and assumes left to right orientation.
[11:46] <meddy> anyone can help me with my update problem?
[11:47] <bekks> meddy: Did you already state a specific problem?
[11:47] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: it's clear
[11:47] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: you are resizing a partition - the partition will be where you create the free space, it's clear
[11:47] <meddy> i have a working interent connection but everytime i try to update it says failed to downlaod repository check my internet connection
[11:47] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia: perhaps in english
[11:48] <bekks> meddy: Can you pastebin the entire output please?
[11:48] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia, ok thanks for clearing that up.
[11:48] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: no, without any words/lanaguage
[11:48] <bekks> !pastebin | meddy
[11:49] <DeepBlue> EM255E37:  hi
[11:49] <meddy> i don't know what else to show  i tried removing my PPA try doing it though terminal but no sucess
[11:50] <ikonia> meddy: how about showing what bekks' asked for
[11:50] <bekks> meddy: show us the entire output you can see. We cant guess it.

[11:51] <Purefan> Hello all!. My Natty server cant fetch repos anymore, 404 errors and dont know what to do, any advise?
[11:52] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia: after I click the accept write and that I understand this action cannot be undone, it does give information (says Windows, has a picture, and says its mount point). Prior to that there is NO LABELING whatsoever.
[11:52] <ikonia> meddy: sudo apt-get update please pastebin the output
[11:52] <bekks> meddy: PAstebin the output of "sudo apt-get update" please.
[11:52] <aaaaaaaaaaa> clearly a bug either way
[11:52] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: that's not a bug
[11:52] <aaaaaaaaaaa> feature
[11:52] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: no
[11:53] <meddy> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6498616/
[11:53] <ikonia> you still have the cd source enabled
[11:53] <racho> meddy, disable that cdrom source
[11:54] <meddy> via software sources?
[11:54] <ikonia> sure
[11:58] <adv_am> hello. I am a newbie, a noob, and have recently started using elementary os, which is based on ubuntu.
[11:58] <meddy> it fixed!!! here a thing i wonder is it been about a week and a half and it says my system is up to date but it hard to believe due to the time frame...
[11:58] <adv_am> I updated the linux kernel which is now giving me an error if i do anything memory extensive
[11:59] <ikonia> adv_am: you need to use the elementary support channel, we only support ubuntu
[11:59] <DeepBlue> EM255E37:  what's up?
[11:59] <adv_am> ikonia: can u send me the server name for their irc?
[11:59] <ikonia> adv_am: I'm sure it's on their website
[12:01] <aaaaaaaaaaa> What channel could I ask questions about CUDA and OpenCL under linux?
[12:07] <hassen_> aaaaaaaaaaa, what is your distro?
[12:08] <Purefan> Hi guys, Im having problems updating my Natty server, getting 404
[12:08] <Purefan> any advise?
[12:09] <bekks> !eolupgrade | Purefan
[12:09] <aaaaaaaaaaa> hassen_: I'm installing Ubuntu 12.04.03 as I type. But I want to also run it on 13.10 if possible (at least the binaries).
[12:11] <cfhowlett> Purefan, in other words, download and install a currently supported distro - I suggest you go with 12.04 Long-Term-Support
[12:13] <Purefan> Thanks guys! I think I'll do that instead of upgrade :)
[12:13] <aguitel> anyone trying to install epson multifunction cx 5600 ?
[12:14] <cfhowlett> Purefan, set your update options to LTS only and upgrade to 14.04 in April
[12:14] <Purefan> thing is I need to install mysql-server but the repos dont work anymore and dont want to download and compile unless I really have to
[12:15] <Purefan> and now that I learned that natty is no longer supported it makes sense to jump on the train and get a supported one
[12:15] <cfhowlett> Purefan, bite the bullet, amigo.
[12:15] <Purefan> and Raring's EOF is in january lol
[12:16] <Purefan> oh yeah Duh!
[12:16] <cfhowlett> Purefan, LTS has 5 years support ...
[12:16] <Purefan> sorry that's why 12.04 was recommended
[12:16] <cfhowlett> :)
[12:16] <Purefan> :P going with Precise 8)
[12:17] <cfhowlett> Purefan, if you have issues, ask here or in #ubuntuserver.  By the way, I'm guessing your hardware is equally --- vintage - as your OS?  You might want to get xubuntu or lubuntu as they are both optimized for older and lower spec machines
[12:18] <aaaaaaaaaaa> Fresh install Ubuntu 12.04.03 breaks windows 8 bootloader on new lenovo y410p and overwrites \Boot\BCD giving Status 0xc000000e
[12:19] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: Thats expected.
[12:19] <bekks> !grub2 | aaaaaaaaaaa
[12:19] <cfhowlett> Purefan, LTS: 5 years support on the server, 3 years on the desktop it appears
[12:19] <hassen_> is ubuntu considered a Debian system?
[12:19] <bunnyflop> only problems with 8
[12:19] <Purefan> Im actually using a rackspace cloud server (1GB Ram)
[12:19] <cfhowlett> hassen_, it's derived from Debian
[12:19] <aaaaaaaaaaa> and to fix?
[12:19] <Purefan> thanks for pointing me to #ubuntuserver :) will bookmark it
[12:19] <aaaaaaaaaaa> bekks: ^
[12:19] <cfhowlett> Purefan, so this is a server?  no gui?
[12:19] <Purefan> yup
[12:20] <cfhowlett> Purefan, nice.
[12:20] <Purefan> :) it does its job, but its getting promoted and needs a newer OS hehe
[12:20] <miscel06> ciao
[12:21] <miscel06> !list
[12:21] <aaaaaaaaaaa> Also, both the regular installer and wubi is now broken?
[12:21] <cfhowlett> aaaaaaaaaaa, wubi?  people still mess with that mess?
[12:21] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: wubi is not supported on windows 8.
[12:22] <aaaaaaaaaaa>  well, when I booted up it showed up and started installing 12.04.1 from my 12.04.03 dvd.
[12:22] <BluesKaj> I thought wubi just had it's support discontinued
[12:22] <bekks> BluesKaj: which is basically the same :)
[12:22] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, I really ^3 hope so ...
[12:22] <aaaaaaaaaaa> anyway, how do I make the windows 8 bootable again
[12:22] <aaaaaaaaaaa> grub lists it, but it cannot boot it.
[12:22] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: grab your windows 8 cd, and repair your boot environment.
[12:22] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett. bekks yes , and good riddance :)
[12:23] <aaaaaaaaaaa> will it be able to boot linux?
[12:23] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: the windows 8 cd isnt capable of booting linux.
[12:23] <aaaaaaaaaaa> also, I didn't get a win8 cd from lenovo they put it on a partition.
[12:23] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: And you didnt create rescue media then?
[12:23] <aaaaaaaaaaa> I bought the laptop directly from them
[12:24] <BluesKaj> aaaaaaaaaaa. which lenovo ?
[12:24] <aaaaaaaaaaa> I backed up the whole harddrive via REDO
[12:24] <cfhowlett> aaaaaaaaaaa, look on your lappy for the license key and download the ISO digitalriver IINM
[12:24] <aaaaaaaaaaa> BluesKaj: y410p, and the license key is on the MOBO, not as a sticker its some internal chip
[12:25] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: it isnt "on the mobo" - you just have an OEM version, without a sticker.
[12:26] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ?
[12:26] <Purefan> Getting Precise now :) Thanks all for your help, enjoy your weekend!
[12:26] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: lenove told you to create rescue media at first boot. now you need them.
[12:27] <aaaaaaaaaaa> when did they tell me to do that?
[12:27] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: "at first boot".
[12:27] <cfhowlett> ^^^^ exactly.  also recommended repeatedly in the documentation
[12:27] <Xeno-Genesis> hey, I submitted a patch for bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/1185330
[12:27] <aaaaaaaaaaa> wait are you saying Linux is dropped?
[12:27] <aaaaaaaaaaa> oh
[12:27] <Xeno-Genesis> what's the next step?
[12:27] <BluesKaj> aaaaaaaaaaa. , nice laptop , just oredered the G500
[12:27] <aaaaaaaaaaa> It is an either \ or thing for linux and windows now
[12:28] <BluesKaj> aaaaaaaaaaa. the y410p looks very nice
[12:28] <Xeno-Genesis> please email instructions to get that fix into the code to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[12:28] <Xeno-Genesis> if someone is willing to help me get that patch into prod
[12:28] <Xeno-Genesis> thanks
[12:28] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: its a linux only thing now, your windows is broken and you cant repair it. All you could do is restoring the entire disk backup hoping that the boot environment will be restored too.
[12:29] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, my '09 is Dell is reaching replacement stage.  I've worn the finger nubs off J and F.  That new M3800 looks sweet but awaiting word on linux/ubuntu support
[12:31] <aaaaaaaaaaa> nah, I'll just stop developing on linux until a proper bootloader exists. I'll re-installing windows
[12:32] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: With which cd...? With which key...? :)
[12:32] <cfhowlett> LOL
[12:32] <aaaaaaaaaaa> bit for bit from the backup I made with REDO bootable linux
[12:33] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: thats "restoring a backup" and not "reinstalling windows".
[12:33] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: And it is unclear wether that will give you a bootable windows.
[12:35] <aaaaaaaaaaa> I have an OEM system builders DVD too, just not from Lenovo but I don't want to waste that license
[12:35] <aaaaaaaaaaa> For the desktop I built
[12:35] <aaaaaaaaaaa> *from
[12:35] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: well, options are clear.
[12:36] <aaaaaaaaaaa> Are there any plans to port grub or linux installers to modern computers?
[12:36] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: grub works on modern computers.
[12:36] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett. I had an elcheapo acer laptop which ran Kubuntu very nicely , too bad the build quality was so poor , but I'm looking forward to this new Lenovo , should be here on Mon or Tue , and I'll probly need help installing Linux , due to my unfamiliarity with the UEFI/BIOS .
[12:37] <aaaaaaaaaaa> only using ~1980's hdd schemes apparently though
[12:37] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, that exact issue is why I'm keeping one eye on the XPS 13 developer Editoin ...
[12:37] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: please stop with the stupid ocmments
[12:37] <bekks> aaaaaaaaaaa: Nope, thats wrong.
[12:37] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: gpt partitions work just fine
[12:40] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett. nice machine :)
[12:41] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, ain't she?
[12:42] <maxiaojun> any gui man page viewer for ubuntu 12.04+ ?
[12:45] <hassen_> "Samba is an implementation of the SMB/CIFS protocol for Unix systems, providing support for cross-platform file"
[12:45] <hassen_> said ubuntu
[12:45] <hassen_> sii need it to access my music in my win7 partition?
[12:45] <hassen_> so*
[12:46] <ObrienDave> you mean to just play the files?
[12:47] <hassen_> share my win 7 music folder with  ubuntu
[12:47] <Industrial> Why does ubuntu rename the nodejs binary from 'node' to 'nodejs' ? this is breaking other packages ...
[12:47] <cfhowlett> hassen_, dual booting?  mount the windows and play the files
[12:47] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia: that's both rude and incorrect. I appreciate you verifying what should have been working on the installer, but what I've said is all correct.
[12:47] <Industrial> things like #!/usr/bin/env node
[12:47] <Industrial> stop working
[12:47] <aaaaaaaaaaa> that said, I have them playing nicely together now
[12:47] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: no, it's not
[12:48] <aaaaaaaaaaa> except grub which doesn't work right
[12:48] <ikonia> aaaaaaaaaaa: you're upset because it didn't work how you wanted and made stupid comments about it not working on modern partition formats
[12:48] <hassen_> yes, already dual boot :)
[12:49] <hassen_> doh..audacity stopped responding,now its windows has turned to black-white style
[12:49] <hassen_> *window*
[12:49] <ObrienDave> hassen_, I just play them, no need for Samba that I know of
[12:50] <kalakjsd> hi all, anyone using sakis3g script here
[12:50] <racho> Industrial, yes it is stupid but you can put this in your .bashrc to negate some of the damage: alias node=/usr/bin/nodejs
[12:50] <kalakjsd> i need a little help
[12:51] <aaaaaaaaaaa> ikonia: For the record I'm not angry, simple frustrated, ignoring errors in an installer which results in showstopper bugs out of fandom is stupid, however. We can leave it at that.
[12:52] <kalakjsd> i want to set USER_PASS AND USER NAME variable in sakis 3g, i don't want to enter them everytime
[12:53] <kalakjsd> i want it to connect it without asking for username and password, because they are blank and not needed in India for most of providers
[12:53] <kalakjsd> and this is mentioned in GUI that i can automate that, but i don't know how to automate the process
[12:54] <mjayk> haya all
[12:54] <cfhowlett> mjayk, greetings
[12:55] <ravn> hey
[13:01] <Teor> ЯR, ИN
[13:02] <hassen_> doh..i'm sure that when installing ubuntu, i chose my account's password as 'azertyb' but why can't that pass used for "su root" ?
[13:02] <ikonia> hassen_: because you don't "su root"
[13:02] <ikonia> hassen_: the root account is locked
[13:03] <hassen_> does it have another known password?
[13:03] <yeats> hassen_: you want to change your password since you just shared it in a public and publicly logged IRC channel
[13:03] <ikonia> hassen_: no, it's "locked"
[13:03] <ikonia> !sudo | hassen_
[13:03] <hassen_> so how can I do some work involving 'su root'??
[13:04] <ikonia> hassen_: read the link ubottu has just sent you
[13:04] <ikonia> hassen_: you should not su root at all
[13:04] <aaaaaaaaaaa> BluesKaj: if you run into the same issue on your g500 when you get it, I got it to working using a bootable bootloader (EFI boot manager utility) since grub fails to pull windows up.
[13:04] <hassen_> Understood.
[13:04] <Promille> hassen_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/6676/why-is-there-no-option-to-login-as-root
[13:04] <hassen_> Promille, thanks.
[13:05] <Promille> hassen_: np :)
[13:05] <BluesKaj> aaaaaaaaaaa .EFI boot manager utility , got a URL ?
[13:08] <box_> #tglobe
[13:08] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EFIBootLoaders
[13:09] <UnHolyTerror> hassen_, By default the 'root' account is not assigned a password, so you couldn't login as root if you wanted too. The only way is to assign root a password then you can switch users/login as root just like any other account.
[13:10] <UnHolyTerror> hassen_, but you should see in those links why there is no need to do that.
[13:10] <BluesKaj> lotuspsychje. , thanks.  the rEFInd looks promising
[13:10] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: trying a dualboot?
[13:11] <aaaaaaaaaaa> rEFInd
[13:11] <aaaaaaaaaaa> http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/
[13:11] <aaaaaaaaaaa> http://sourceforge.net/projects/refind/
[13:11] <hassen_> UnHolyTerror, i deal much with bash scripting,root is required for many commands there.
[13:12] <hassen_> they are wise though,putting root in the hand of any kind of users is risky.
[13:12]  * ewoirhweurhuhrwe is having sex with selena gomez <3
[13:13] <hassen_> ikonia, do you have that nice Acer laptop?
[13:13] <ikonia> what acer laptop ? (I don't have an acer laptop anyway)
[13:13] <BluesKaj> lotuspsychje. I will be when the new laptop is delivered ..gonna need Windows for a while as well . so dual boot is it
[13:14] <hassen_> ikonia, never heard of Acer Iconia?
[13:14] <ikonia> no
[13:16] <hassen_> ikonia, http://img.clubic.com/03772908-photo-acer-iconia-1.jpg
[13:17] <aaaaaaaaaaa> is that a second screen?
[13:17] <ObrienDave> ooo0, spill proof keyboard?
[13:17] <sandman13> is that Lenovo Yoga?
[13:17] <Belial`> that thing is ugly as sin
[13:17] <fault3r> Hi all
[13:17] <bekks> hassen_: thats the iconia tab with a keyboard, isnt it?
[13:18] <hassen_> bekks, yes,a double-touch laptop
[13:18] <hassen_> seems epic
[13:18] <fault3r> How can i install SandyBridge? [that is a Intel Graphic Driver]
[13:18] <bekks> hassen_: For whatever but working with that crap.
[13:18] <hassen_> bekks, why?
[13:18] <sandman13> what you guys think about KDE? I'm in a doubt. Should i install it or not?
[13:18] <picca> sandman13: don't do it
[13:18] <LjL> !polls
[13:19] <hassen_> bekks, imaging touch ubuntu's UI buttons :)
[13:19] <bekks> fault3r: Sandy Bridge is a hardware component, which is already installed. The driver you are looking for is named "i915"
[13:19] <fault3r> sandman13: gnome is better
[13:19] <hassen_> *imagine*
[13:19] <fault3r> sandman13: dont do it
[13:19] <picca> sander: fluxbox is the future
[13:19] <LjL> sandman13: that can only be answered after knowing your needs and preferences, if at all. anyway, it's a better topic for #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:19] <LjL> picca, fault3r: see above also
[13:19] <picca> LjL: i am joking
[13:19] <sandman13> LjL help me there
[13:19] <bekks> hassen_: I prefer to work with a computer instead of touching my laptop with both hands.
[13:20] <fault3r> bekks: Hi, I need Intel Graphic Driver
[13:20] <koyetsu> CLI is the only way to go! just figured i'd throw that in
[13:20] <fault3r> bekks: it's for Dell inspiron n4030
[13:21] <picca> koyetsu: mc, moc, lynx, irssi, what else you do you need in life?
[13:21] <BluesKaj> sandman13. KDE is great , been using it for a long time
[13:21] <koyetsu> is there a way to mirror only 1 specific release of ubuntu with apt-mirror? i only want 12.04.3 not all 150gb of releases
[13:22] <cfhowlett> !mirror|koyetsu, of course
[13:22] <hassen_> bekks, i see.
[13:22] <cfhowlett> eh, not that one
[13:22] <koyetsu> picca, i was only half kidding when i comes to linux i use cli for direct config and webmin if i just need to poke something no X on my systems
[13:24] <aaaaaaaaaaa> If we're voting for ui's, then xfce when I can, terminal when I can't
[13:24] <fault3r> bekks: i915 is for Intel graphics?
[13:24] <picca> fault3r: yup
[13:24] <fault3r> bekks: is i915 for Intel graphics?* :D
[13:24] <koyetsu> ok, in that case can someone tell me why when using an iso of 12.04.3 mounted to my ../www/ubuntu/ dir and pxe booting with a ks file pointing there i get a bad mirror error? when i goto console 4 it says that "mirror does not support the specified release (precise)"
[13:25] <fault3r> picca: thanks
[13:26] <picca> fault3r: no probs
[13:26] <young001> hi,all I wanna split a file into two files,one is 100k,and the other is the left,how to do that? "split" command seems to only split file into same files
[13:27] <fault3r> Pici: where can i find i915?
[13:28] <llutz> young001: split -b 100k   will do
[13:28] <fault3r> Pici: i found it :D
[13:28] <young001> llutz, it seems split will split the file into same pieces of 100k
[13:29] <young001> llutz, if a file is 300k,I wanna split into 100k and 200k
[13:29] <bekks> young001: then you are using it not correctly.
[13:29] <bekks> young001: you want to split into 200 and 100...
[13:29] <young001> bekks, if the file is 500k,I wanna split into 100k and 400k
[13:30] <llutz> young001: split -b 400k
[13:30] <koyetsu> basically he only wants the first 100k in the first file
[13:30] <bekks> young001: 400 and 100, instead of 100 and 400.
[13:30] <llutz> whyever, makes no sense
[13:30] <koyetsu> sounds like he needs to parse the most recent logs or something
[13:30] <young001> llutz, thx
[13:31] <bekks> koyetsu: then he should use grep and sed instead of split.
[13:31] <koyetsu> i didn't claim to be an expert
[13:31] <MajSlayer7777> me 2
[13:31] <llutz> young001: dd if=file of=file1.out bs=100k count=1          same for the 2nd file with different bs
[13:31] <MajSlayer7777> PH freaking D
[13:32] <young001> llutz, thx
[13:32] <bekks> llutz: head -c 100k ?
[13:32] <koyetsu> so any ideas on why ubuntu says it's iso isn't a valid mirror?

[13:33] <streulma> Hello, how can I make the text on my screen sharper?
[13:33] <fault3r> what is the command to detect my graphic card? [not lspci]
[13:33] <bekks> fault3r: that is the command, lspci.
[13:33] <streulma> is there a ppa for Gutenprint drivers ?
[13:37] <hassen> what does the Ctrl+Alt+F1 do?i got a black command-line input screen
[13:37] <hassen> then rebooted
[13:39] <Industrial> I installed node.js from source which installed a /usr/local/bin/node. if I type in node in the commandline I get the error that I should Install node from the package
[13:39] <Industrial> when I run which node
[13:39] <syeekick> hassen,  thats a tty1 session, to get out of it pres ctrl+alt f7
[13:39] <Industrial> it points to /usr/local/bin/node
[13:39] <fault3r> bekks: dude?
[13:39] <young001> llutz, how to split the file based on lines,such as 100 lines?thx
[13:40] <bekks> fault3r: ?
[13:40] <fault3r> bekks: 	Kernel driver in use: i915
[13:40] <bekks> young001: split -l ...
[13:40] <fault3r> bekks: Kernel modules: i915
[13:40] <bekks> fault3r: Nice, and?
[13:40] <fault3r> bekks: Kernel driver in use: i915
[13:41] <bekks> fault3r: you dont have to repeat three times.
[13:41] <fault3r> bekks: is that mean i have this driver?
[13:41] <bekks> fault3r: As it is in use, yes.
[13:41] <dantxo> Hello, I have a problem, I'm changing the hostname but after rebooting the hostname gets reverted to ubuntu
[13:41] <bekks> dantxo: is it a livecd?
[13:41] <young001> bekks, so we come to the first question,I have a file,and I wanna split it into two files,one the 100 lines,and the other.how to do that?thx
[13:42] <Industrial> `which node` => `/usr/local/bin/node`, `node` => `The program 'nodejs' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install nodejs`
[13:42] <Industrial> why is this?
[13:42] <dantxo> dantxo: no, it's a Ubuntu server
[13:42] <fault3r> bekks: why do i dont see it in system details?
[13:42] <fault3r> bekks: :(
[13:42] <bekks> young001: just as you did before?
[13:42] <bekks> fault3r: because the system details do not display that?
[13:42] <dantxo> bekks: It's not a live cd, it's a VM running Ubuntu Server 64 bits
[13:42] <young001> bekks, yes
[13:42] <fault3r> bekks: system details > Graphics: Unknown
[13:43] <hassen> syeekick, understood,thanks.
[13:44] <koyetsu> OMFG i'm an idiot. spelling errors screw ub more things than anything else
[13:45] <OerHeks> young001, You need to change 2 files  /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts AFAIK
[13:45] <koyetsu> apparently i'm creating my own flavor of ubuntu called ubutnu
[13:45] <ObrienDave> hey, a new fork ;))
[13:46] <syeekick> hassen, its good practice in my opinion to get stuck in a tty :P
[13:46] <bekks> fault3r: And?
[13:46] <syeekick> cause you have to work out how to get out if not you are going to be stuck. forceful learning
[13:46] <bekks> fault3r: you do knwo which graphics hw you have, you know which driver si in use? What next?
[13:46] <mirko_> hello
[13:47] <luciano> algum brasileiro
[13:47] <LjL> !br
[13:47] <fault3r> bekks: No ;( nevermind dude, i try to fix it...
[13:47] <luciano> #ubuntu-pt
[13:48] <koyetsu> speaking as someone who knows just enough to get into trouble i HIGHLY recomend a vm envioronment with no X to start larning on caue then you can blow it away and start over and you learn enough of the fundamentals to not piss everyone off with your questions
[13:49] <ObrienDave> koyetsu, good advice, i'm learning that one myself :)
[13:49] <hassen> syeekick, to mimic the command-line interface usage?
[13:49] <Sh1G3rU> koyetsu +1 virtual machines, a little manual reading and alot of patiente
[13:51] <koyetsu> i picked up a cheap ibm x3550 with 16gb ram in it slapped free esxi on it and am setting up a pxe install server so i can pop out test servers in a few mins
[13:52] <koyetsu> only thing pissing me off is a can't get my automated install to go through the disk partitioning without me messing with it
[13:53] <koyetsu> i have to do the final 2 selections
[13:54] <bekks> koyetsu: would you mind your language please?
[13:54] <syeekick> hassen, its not mimicing its a terminal
[13:55] <syeekick> the hard thing to get your head around is the run levels in side tty sessions
[13:55] <syeekick> i don't understand it
[13:55] <koyetsu> oh sorry didn't realise that was a bad word
[13:55] <bekks> syeekick: since upstart, there are no runlevels anymore :)
[13:56] <Guest64270> Guten Tag
[13:56] <Guest64270> HEllo
[14:00] <hassen> so is tty another seperate thing from terminal or what?
[14:01] <StormCloud> good evening
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> !tty | hassen
[14:04] <bekks> hassen: a tty is a text type terminal, wehich runs a shell. your loved gnome-terminal is basically an terminal emulator running a shell too.
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> StormCloud: hello mate what can we do for you?
[14:04] <andywojo> I'm addicted to terminator.
[14:05] <syeekick> bekks, you mean there is no run levels in ubuntu?
[14:06] <bekks> !upstart | syeekick
[14:06] <syeekick> nice thats one thing i dont have to get my nnoggin around
[14:07] <hassen> bekks, i see,but both (tty and gnome-terminal) are working the same?or is tty used deeper?
[14:11] <hassen> !kde
[14:14] <YaMoonSun> Where do I make error reports? I'm having trouble broadcasting on TinyChat.
[14:25] <Industrial> `which node` => `/usr/local/bin/node` but then when i do `node` => `The program 'nodejs' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install nodejs`
[14:25] <Industrial> i installed from source
[14:26] <hex20dec> Hey people, I have a usb wifi adapter that works perfectly fine, but when I put my computer to sleep and then turn it back on, I need to unplug the usb and plug it back it to be recognized.
[14:26] <hex20dec> Why is that?
[14:30] <juniour> i just bough tplink nano usb wireless adapter how to make it work. the card is showing in lsusb
[14:30] <Tronic> Choosing HDMI 5.1 Surround no longer has any effect (it still uses stereo output). Why is this? On ALSA level 5.1 output works fine but PulseAudio (configured via pavucontrol or Gnome sound settings) doesn't.
[14:30] <Tronic> This worked fine until today.
[14:30] <Tronic> Suspecting some recent update but there are quite many of them.
[14:31] <juniour> tplink nana wireless adapter detected but how to connect ot network plz help
[14:31] <Tronic> Even if 5.1 is chosen, the speaker test in Gnome sound settings still displays only two speakers. Also, audio doesn't even pause when changing the setting, further suggesting that the selection is simply ignored.
[14:31] <juniour> it ned some driver or wt??
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Tronic
[14:32] <Tronic> I'm using Nvidia drivers.

[14:36] <Tronic> lotuspsychje: Doesn't seem to be of much help.
[14:36] <Tronic> PulseAudio doesn't give any error when switching card profiles via pacmd, either, but also no effect.
[14:37] <lotuspsychje> Tronic: maybe look around in the logviewer /var/log/syslog see if any unusual errors show up
[14:37] <juniour> need to install realtek drivers

[14:47] <MrToaD> hi there, im having some major difficulties with AMD catalyst. Had installed via the "additional drivers" utility under System Settings. However this reported as 15.xxx.xxx etc. Wanted to try version 13.11 and 13.4, but that would not get me past grub screen. blank screen and system hang
[14:48] <MrToaD> have managed to uninstall the drivers and get system running
[14:48] <MrToaD> but when i try putting the drivers and catalyst back the normal way (which worked originally) i still end up with the blank screen and lockup
[14:48] <MrToaD> anyone able to help... ive a bunch of xorg.conf backups sitting around
[14:48] <MrToaD> from each attempt

[14:50] <Greyghostros> May not be the right place but need some help with data recovery.. My hdd has gone bad. I am trying to clone it with ddrescue but when the process starts it shows error: 1 and error size:  size of partition. The partition was an ext3 which too is not being recognised. Using testdisk it does recognise it but any attempt to access it makes the hdd go offline. Is there anything i can try to recover? Thnanks
[14:50] <^Jonni^> Hello
[14:51] <hassen> i was downloading my ATI HD 3470 driver and now i got a "ati*.run file"
[14:51] <hassen> how to install it?
[14:51] <hassen> double-clicking doesn't seem to be the choice
[14:52] <MrToaD> sudo bash etc.run
[14:52] <koyetsu> hassen have you bothered to read the installation instructions?
[14:52] <MrToaD> or there are people saying you must get it into dpgk acceptable form
[14:52] <MrToaD> but im stuck on a more serious issue
[14:52] <MrToaD> as i cannot get a stable system running any more, when reverting to installing through "additional hardware"
[14:52] <MrToaD> this is worrying
[14:52] <MrToaD> can't start up system at all after trying the other drivers
[14:53] <MrToaD> unless i boot into recovery mode
[14:53] <MrToaD> and remove them
[14:53] <MrToaD> reboot...
[14:53] <MrToaD> gone round that circle a few times, it completely hangs
[14:53] <koyetsu> MrToaD, i honestly don't use X so my only advice is blow it up and start over
[14:53] <hassen> MrToaD, what?
[14:54] <MrToaD> koyetsu: im thinking that, but i cant
[14:54] <koyetsu> why not?
[14:54] <lotuspsychje> MrToaD: how about fix broken packages from recoverymode?
[14:54] <MrToaD> but they are not broken packages
[14:54] <MrToaD> i did a force install, thats what broke it

[15:27] <adamu> Hello
[15:29] <MrHacks> I just had a thought. What MTP software SHOULDN'T I install, or what MTP Software should I remove? http://i.imgur.com/Pe2Uarc.png
[15:29] <MrHacks> I'm starting to believe the reason I could never get any of my MTP devices to connect anymore (an why I see these messages in dmesg http://pastebin.com/N1xfubFD ) is because I may have installed conflicting software.
[15:30] <mathieg2> Have you purged all your mtp packages?
[15:30] <mathieg2> apt-get purge xxx
[15:31] <DeepBlue> EM255E37:
[15:32] <MrHacks> I don't think I need to get rid of all my MTP software. Just whatever it is that doesn't let me connect my KFHD7 to my computer anymore.
[15:32] <MrMonkey31> hoy! anyone know whether an ACPI=off param in the cmdline  is the same as turning off ACPI in bios? or does it put it in some standby mode or switch it on occasionally for some nefarious purposes or whatever?
[15:33] <papa__> does anyone know a mail client where you can click several messages for deletion at once?
[15:34] <DJones> papa__: I use thunderbird & can do that
[15:35] <mathieg2> MrHacks> for android devices - I think the Kindle fire still counts - I find the adb tools are the most reliable way of doing mtp stuff
[15:35] <mathieg2> let me look up the actual package name
[15:35] <papa__> DJones thank you I will try that now
[15:36] <mathieg2> its android-tools-fsutils
[15:37] <adamu> MrMonkey31, I believe if you pass ACPI=off as a boot parameter through the kernel command line it disables acpi in the kernel but it is still enabled in the bios its just not being used
[15:38] <MrHacks> That would be good mathieg2, if only I could CONNECT the device.  I also have android-tools-fsutils installed as well as android-tools-fastboot and android-tools-adb
[15:38] <MrHacks> Again, whenever I plug it in I see this message in dmesg http://pastebin.com/N1xfubFD
[15:40] <MrMonkey31> adamu: alright, not being used... by the kernel?  by the chipset?  I'm sry for being vague, I know so little though
[15:40] <as> MrHacks: try a different cable and/or do not use hubs
[15:41] <as> had that a few times, was always one of those two
[15:41] <MrHacks> as, did that. I own several cables. I used two different hubs.  Still got http://pastebin.com/N1xfubFD
[15:42] <PatrickDickey> MrMonkey31: I believe that he means that the kernel won't be using it. The capability will still be available in the hardware (BIOS), but the software/operating system will be ignoring it.
[15:42] <as> try no hub at all
[15:42] <MrHacks> as: what do you mean by "try no hub at all"?
[15:42] <MrMonkey31> adamu: in any case it looks like I can't fail with bios level disabling. I'm trying to troubleshoot some hw, and people have told me acpi is a culprit. also linus does not like it!!
[15:43] <MrMonkey31> -understood
[15:43] <as> my last phone required to be kooked up to the rear port of my pc, couldn't even use the front ports on my case
[15:43] <papa__> DJones
[15:43] <as> and could not use the hub in my monitor
[15:43] <papa__> I don't see the option for that DJones
[15:43] <adamu> MrMonkey31, Well it is my understanding that if you disable it with the kernel command line it is not used by the operating system so that might be worth a shot but yeah you can't go wrong disabling it at the bios level
[15:44] <adamu> PatrickDickey, Yeah that is what I was trying to say
[15:44] <DJones> papa__: I just left click using Ctrl+left click and then press delete
[15:45] <MrHacks> as, so try the USB ports on the back of the computer?  I think I only have USB3 ports avaiable back there, but I will attempt it
[15:45] <as> and your best cable :)
[15:46] <papa__> DJones thanks.. What i was trying to do was make this easier for my grandfather who is 87 delete his mail. getting it online with ads and everything is causing him to click everwhere he shouldn't. The interface of thunderbird/evolution is simple enough for him but hes looking for that feature. Teaching him to hold CNTRL is like a two day process haha
[15:46] <adamu> MrHacks, I don't know if this will fit your needs but have you tried accessing it using PTP instead of MTP that is what I ended up doing and I haven't had any reason to switch to MTP because PTP works just fine
[15:47] <juniour> slug y i got this pastebin.com/D1qSXLWwa
[15:47] <juniour> www.pastebin.com/D1qSXLWwa
[15:48] <MrHacks> adamu: PTP is not available on KFHD7
[15:48] <PatrickDickey> papa__: What exactly are you trying to do? Delete multiple messages, or permanently delete them (bypassing Trash)?
