[09:38] <al-tabq> i'm having a weird problem in ubuntu 10.10 ..at random occasions, once or twice a week. the screen backlight fails and doesn't return until restart. i tried looking on google for the issue but couldn't find anything related. does anyone know what that could be?
[09:39] <iceroot_> al-tabq: 10.10 is no longer supported
[09:39] <iceroot_> !eol | al-tabq
[09:39] <rockworldmi> rm -f /var/www/*.*/log/access.log /var/www/*.*/log/error.log  ??
[09:40] <al-tabq> iceroot_ so... update and hope it'll go away?
[09:40] <iceroot_> al-tabq: yes and you will get security updates again
[09:40] <iceroot_> al-tabq: which is important
[09:41] <al-tabq> iceroot_ when is 12.04 coming out again?
[09:41] <iceroot_> al-tabq: 1 day
[09:41] <ayse> I can't use qwit or twitux, can anybody help?
[09:42] <iceroot_> !details | al-tabq
[09:42] <iceroot_> al-tabq: wrong nick sorry
[09:42] <iceroot_> !details | ayse
[09:42] <iceroot_> how i dislike this auto-complete...
[09:42] <al-tabq> hehe
[09:43] <Gyro54> Hi!
[09:44] <ayse> I have a problem with twitux and/or qwit, I'm running Ubuntu version 10.04 When I try to do connect twitter, I get the following output: access denied, but I expected it to coonect
[09:45] <Gyro54> What can I use for remote desktop Ubuntu to Ubuntu with an easy setup and no port changes on the modem?
[09:45] <iceroot_> ayse: sounds like wrong credentials
[09:45] <iceroot_> Gyro54: only teamviewer
[09:45] <iceroot_> Gyro54: everything else needs port forwarding
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> Gyro54: openssh-server
[09:46] <iceroot_> ActionParsnip: needs portforwarding too
[09:46] <ayse> iceroot: what do you mean?
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> iceroot_: modems are transparent devices, so needs no config.
[09:46] <iceroot_> ActionParsnip: i think he is really meaning routers
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> iceroot_: I can't assume that ;)
[09:46] <iceroot_> Gyro54: modem or router?
[09:47] <iceroot_> ayse: wrong user/password
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> Gyro54: do you mean a wifi router, or is is a modem connecting you straight to the web?
[09:47] <Gyro54> I need to look at a machine in another state which has a problem and they cant access the modem to open port etc.
[09:48] <iceroot_> Gyro54: modem or router?
[09:48] <Rienzilha> Gyro54: do they have access to that machine>?
[09:48] <bluefrog> Gyro54, teamviewer
[09:48] <Gyro54> They have access but they are totally basic
[09:48] <ayse> iceroot: I don't think it is about that, because I checked it many times.
[09:49] <Gyro54> does teamviewer run on ubuntu?
[09:49] <iceroot_> Gyro54: yes
[09:49] <Rienzilha> otherwise, you could have them ssh out with a port forward, and use that to connect back to some service. But I think for what you want teamviewer would be the best choice
[09:49] <iceroot_> Gyro54: its using wine but its running fine
[09:49] <Gyro54> I will have to have them setup Wine?
[09:50] <iceroot_> Gyro54: on the ubuntu machine they need to install wine "sudo apt-get install wine" or if you install the deb from teamviewer from there website imo wine is a dependency and will be installed automaticly
[09:51] <Gyro54> iceroot: Teamviewer has a Ubuntu version?
[09:51] <iceroot_> Gyro54: "yes" its a windows version running with wine
[09:51] <Gyro54> Thanks for your help
[09:52] <iceroot_> Gyro54: http://www.teamviewer.com/de/download/
[09:52] <Gyro54> iceroot_: thanks
[09:52] <iceroot_> Gyro54: there is also an executable version without installing, i am not sure how that is working, i guess wine is still needed on the system and is not coming with that tar.gz so use the deb-file
[09:53] <Ben64> !info teamviewer6
[09:53] <Ben64> oh..
[09:55] <luisgustavo> bom dia...
[09:56] <Gyro54> Downloading teamviewer 7 will let you know how we go.
[10:00] <iceroot_> oh, steam is coming for GNU/Linux :)
[10:00] <Ben64> citation needed
[10:00] <iceroot_> left 4 dead 2 on gnu/linux :) good news!!!

[10:02] <iceroot_> new gaming-plattform GNU/Linux :)
[10:03] <Ben64> maybe they looked at the stats for the humble bundles
[10:03] <Ben64> linux users paid ~2x as much as windows
[10:03] <ikonia> perhaps #ubuntu-offtopic for this very interesting discussion
[10:03] <iceroot_> ikonia: to important for offtopic :)
[10:03] <ikonia> but also nothing to do with ubuntu support
[10:03] <iceroot_> its directly related to #1
[10:03] <ikonia> no, it's not
[10:05] <iceroot_> imo it is one of the biggest reason why #1 is still so bad but ok its offtopic
[10:05] <ikonia> it's a good discussion for #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:06] <ikonia> great topic

[10:21] <antihero> Hello, I'm considering buying a laptop with Optimus and I was wondering how stable/great Bumblebee is in terms of real-world usage?
[10:21] <bobweaver> fAz4, I got from here http://foro.ubuntu-guia.com/Contador-regresivo-escrito-en-bash-td3483154.html
[10:22] <inashdeen> hi there, is there a way to autorun an app when i do conditional thing on another app. for example, if i press the button chat>new call on empathy, it runs chromium browser
[10:23] <redact3d> hi, just wondering if there is an app that will allow me to convert an mkv file to an mp4 file without re-encoding the vid
[10:24] <bobweaver> fAz4,  it is working great for me :)
[10:24] <netiul> what is the best music player? (would be nice if i can control it from the systembar at the top of the screen, what's it called? :))
[10:24] <antihero> jeremy-4201: I think similar issues with mplayer
[10:24] <antihero> I was using vdpau
[10:24] <fAz4> bobweaver: same here
[10:25] <rockworldmi> "find . -name error.log -o -name access.log -exec echo -n \> {} \; " this is not working how to use it?
[10:25] <ProGammer_> Hi
[10:25] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  use { this -o that }
[10:25] <ProGammer_> what is the exact release date of ubuntu 12.04 LTS ?
[10:25] <mathews> netiul, it is called panel
[10:25] <MonkeyDust> ProGammer_  tomorrow
[10:26] <Ztane> moreso, will it be office hours in South Africa or ?? :D
[10:26] <ProGammer_> i thought it will be release in 24.4
[10:26] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  http://mywiki.wooledge.org/UsingFind
[10:26] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: k let me try
[10:26] <MonkeyDust> ProGammer_  12 = 2012, 04 is the 4th month
[10:26] <The_Loko> netiul I use rhythmbox and banshee, both can be controlled from volume menu
[10:26] <netiul> thx mathews :)
[10:26] <mathews> netiul, I would say Banshee or Amarok
[10:26] <ProGammer_> Hehe ok
[10:27] <netiul> ah bashee is default, but didn't know it can be controlled from the volume menu
[10:27] <netiul> i see now :)
[10:27] <netiul> thx
[10:27] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  like find . \( -name '*.mp3' -o -name '*.jpg' \) -name 'foo*' -print
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> netiul: if you enable the dbus plugin in vlc, so can that
[10:27] <The_Loko> netiul, do you use gnome or unity?
[10:27] <mathews> ProGammer_, only hrs remains
[10:28] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: i want to clear file name "access.log" and "error.log" in /var/www
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> The_Loko: unity is a shell for gnome, so the question is non-sensical
[10:28] <rockworldmi> but not remove it
[10:28] <oooaaaooo> hi guys just wondering what "LTS is in final beta" means? doesnt LTS mean non-beta?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: LTS means long term support. 5 years for Precise
[10:28] <mathews> !LTS | oooaaaooo
[10:28] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  by clear you mean git rid of or just rm everything inside of it ?
[10:29] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: remove contents inside files
[10:29] <bobweaver> ok
[10:29] <ogra_> mathews, someone needs to update the bot for teh release, from 12.04 on desktop gets 5 years too
[10:29] <oooaaaooo> !beta
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> ogra_: you can do it ;)
[10:29] <bobweaver> rockworldmi, quick way delete file in script then make new on
[10:29] <bobweaver> s|on|one
[10:29] <mathews> ogra_, sure!!!
[10:29]  * ogra_ is busy with other release stuff really
[10:29] <oooaaaooo> !beta
[10:30] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: so first rm all then create new ones??
[10:30] <oooaaaooo> mathews: so whats the beta signify?
[10:30] <bobweaver> that would be one way but I would look at that file and its permissions
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: pre-release, not ready
[10:30] <md_5> anyone had experience with mouse back / forward buttons working out the box?
[10:30] <ogra_> (i just saw it driving by here and thought i should mention it)
[10:30] <netiul> release is planned for tomorrow?
[10:31] <oooaaaooo> ActionParsnip: so a pre-release is supported over the long term?
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> md_5: if you are using Precise then your support is in #ubuntu+1 ONLY
[10:31] <md_5> I am not ;s
[10:31] <mathews> oooaaaooo, u see ActionParsnip is more speedy.
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: no, its just pre-release, this release just happens to be LTS
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> (11:27:05) md_5    and I just autocorrected your nick
[10:31] <md_5> ?
[10:32] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: -exec rm -f {} \; ??
[10:32] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  you could also echo $(date)  to then file  over-writing the hole thing example
[10:32] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  NO
[10:32] <bobweaver> use --delete option
[10:32] <oooaaaooo> oh ok so when teh website sayes "Ubuntu12.04 LTS is in final beta now" what it means to say is that the testing of 12.04 beta is in the final stages and then after that the LTS will be released
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> rockworldmi: why -f?
[10:32] <bobweaver> if you are going that route rockworldmi
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: yes, in a day or so  the LTS will be out and officially 'stable'
[10:33] <rockworldmi> k,
[10:33] <bobweaver> I would over-write it
[10:33] <LjL> md_5: i think the idea is that he was talking to someone else but completed your nickname by mistake
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: 12.10 will also go into beta stage but will not be LTS
[10:33] <md_5> ok...
[10:33] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: so you suggeting going with echo $(date)
[10:33] <oooaaaooo> i see
[10:33]  * md_5 tries to figure out why there are 3 flood bots
[10:33] <mathews> have a good day guys.......bye
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> oooaaaooo: the next LTS will be 14.04
[10:34] <LjL> md_5: fallback, latency and netsplit management
[10:34] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  files=$(find . so on)  then call the varbile and echo the date to it   echo $(date) > $files
[10:34] <md_5> fair point
[10:34] <Anton123123> Hello! can anybody please help me? I try to move ubuntu to another partition, carefully follow the guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MovingLinuxPartition), but my ubuntu keeps booting from the old place...
[10:35] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  makeing a varible in () make it output the well the output of that command
[10:35] <md_5> ouch why would you want to change partitions?
[10:35] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/002
[10:36] <Anton123123> md_5, i have a neetbook with 2 ssd drives, ubuntu is installed on smaller one (4 gb), i want to move it to the 16gb one
[10:36] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  I would use date because then I could track so to say
[10:37] <Ztane> Anton123123: it still finds grub files on the first disk... or the grub master boot record...
[10:38] <Anton123123> Ztane, how can i check it? and fix..
[10:38] <redact3d> Anton123123, boot live cd move files to 16gb then reinstall grub
[10:38] <Ztane> redact3d: it would still try to boot from the first harddisk
[10:39] <Anton123123> the guide has a step to change grub (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MovingLinuxPartition#Step_6:_Update_MBR_to_point_the_new_grub), but i am not sure that i worked
[10:40] <redact3d> Anton123123, boot it and see
[10:40] <Anton123123> i am not sure, because i see that it boots from the old drive :)
[10:40] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  kinda like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/945489/
[10:41] <redact3d> Anton123123, then its not working - try re-installing grub setting new drive as /boot partition and overwrite mbr to point to new drive
[10:41] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: ok ..thanks ..let me try ..
[10:41] <redact3d> s/boot//

[10:45] <Grimdin> killer, i know its coming tomorrow (my local time)
[10:46] <MonkeyDust> mosayeb  release date is april 26

[10:57] <iceroot_> sidharth: now you know why a backup is important, i dont see a way to recover your data
[10:57] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  cool paste that too us plz
[10:57] <sidharth> iceroot_: if i had backup i would not have been searching for a solution here,
[10:58] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: http://pastebin.com/c74Tv2VG
[10:59] <s-hitman> guys if we have the same kernel then we have the same drivers?
[10:59] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  that is alot of files we def dont want to overwrite all them correct
[10:59] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  you are going to have to grep down the list
[10:59] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: i narrowed it down using find . -name 'error.log' -print
[10:59] <s-hitman> i mean why ubuntu has the best hardware detection?
[11:00] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  so all them files in the paste ?
[11:01] <syddraf> s-hitman: Some drivers are proprietary and not included in certain distros, others include them.
[11:01] <narcos> MonkeyDust: So, I have Ubuntu 10.04, and I see on http://pkgs.org/download/sqlite3 that for 10.04 it's only listed 3.6. What would happen if I installed the .deb from another version...?
[11:01] <s-hitman> and ubuntu has more proprietary drivers?
[11:01] <rockworldmi> bobweaver:http://pastebin.com/RnSLW0Ji
[11:02] <bobweaver> thouse are the files you are sure ?
[11:02] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  ^^
[11:03] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: yup
[11:03] <bobweaver> ok
[11:03] <MonkeyDust> narcos  a newer ubuntu version may contain a newer version of the program you want http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[11:03] <bobweaver> this is better to echo that to a list read line by line in a while loop rockworldmi  I will paste give me a minute
[11:04] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: k
[11:04] <sidharth> hello everyone, i was trying to resize my partition using kubuntu`s partition manager, but it crashed in between the process and now i have lost all of my data, Sumone please guide me how i can recover the data. The partition was in ntfs format.
[11:08] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/945515/
[11:08] <ejv> adjusting partitions can be a destructive process if done incorrectly, you have no backups?
[11:08] <bobweaver> rockworldmi, let us know if you need help on how to make that run
[11:09] <sidharth> is there no one who can help me save my data...?
[11:09] <squaregoldfish> sidharth: You could try rebuilding the old partition table manually: http://www.salingfamily.net/trav/linux/lost_partition.html. Other than that, I suspect the only solution is a professional data recovery service.
[11:09] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: ya please.
[11:09] <bobweaver> ok copy and paste these line by line plz
[11:09] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: k ,,let me try
[11:09] <bobweaver>  mkdir -p "$HOME/bin"
[11:09] <sidharth> squaregoldfish: can u please sugest me one for linux?
[11:10] <bobweaver> echo 'PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"' >> "$HOME/.bashrc"
[11:10] <bobweaver> exec bash
[11:10] <squaregoldfish> sidharth: Sorry, no. I've never needed one.
[11:10] <ejv> bobweaver: use a pastebin
[11:10] <bobweaver> sorry ejv
[11:10] <sidharth> squaregoldfish: can u then at least guide me where i can find help?
[11:10] <ejv> that way he can bookmark it, np
[11:11] <robin> Hello I need to bridge eth0 and eth1 to allow internet on server2 through server 1, I know how to do that but I have to assign 4 ips to server 1 and 6 to server 2,  Do I alias the bridges and repeat?
[11:11] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/945519/
[11:12] <squaregoldfish> sidharth: I gave you a link for recovering the partition table (which I found on Google). And I said I don't know about recovery services. I just know they exist.
[11:12] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: after done i got "bash: $line: ambiguous redirect"
[11:13] <rawhite> hi i releaseupgraded from 10.04 to 12.04 precise pangoline beta
[11:13] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: and i ran everything .. not doing anything :(
[11:13] <rawhite> whousl i now set the Prompt=lts back ?
[11:13] <ejv> doesn't the ubuntu "wizard" have a huge warning that editing the partitions is hazardous? if it doesn't, there should be.
[11:15] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  ok let open gedit and paste that code in there then save to ~/bin/ then in terminal cd ~/bin/    then   chmod +x <name of script>   then run script ./<name of script>    plz dont put the stupid .sh at the end of the script as that is confusing as it is not a sh script and is not needed
[11:15] <rawhite> auch this latest ubuntu release update didnt went so smooth as the ones before
[11:15] <rawhite> i used -d now
[11:15] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: ok ..
[11:15] <rawhite> and i have no idea why it was asking me 300 times to change my mysql password
[11:16] <ejv> 300 times? sounds suspicious
[11:16] <C-4> Hello all, just to be sure, final release of 12.04 is scheduled to be live tomorrow, right?
[11:16] <nimesh_accenture> i was installing a package , it got downloaded completely , but while extracting , somebody powered off my system by mistake ... now when i do an apt-get install of that package it says use dpkg --configure -a ....now my question is ... will this fix the problem completely?
[11:16] <ejv> C-4: believe so, unless something major comes up
[11:16] <rawhite> ejv: "300" times :) yea its a bit like sparta also :)
[11:17] <rawhite> ohh was i in a hurry ? :)
[11:17] <rawhite> ejv: should i set the Promp=lts back ?
[11:17] <jrib> nimesh_accenture: if it succeeds, sure
[11:17] <ejv> huh?
[11:17] <Bennlucky7> this is spartaaaa
[11:17] <C-4> Ejv, thanks for the answer. I am hoping the same. :-)
[11:18] <rawhite> ejv: i did do-release-upgrade -d and it failed at the end ... now i did apt-get -f install then apt-get upgrade shows me 356 packages needs to be upgraded ...
[11:18] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: i got "./logscr: line 8: $line: ambiguous redirect"
[11:18] <rawhite> i hope i didnt break something irreversibly
[11:18] <ejv> i plan to stay on 10.04
[11:18] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  plz paste full script to me
[11:18] <nimesh_accenture> jrib: it didn't give any error at the end
[11:18] <rawhite> huh ejv why ?
[11:18] <ejv> i see little reason to upgrade personally
[11:18] <rawhite> i tought newer lts is better ...
[11:18] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/945515/
[11:18] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  the one with the while loop
[11:18] <bobweaver> thanks rockworldmi
[11:18] <jrib> nimesh_accenture: after you ran « dpkg --configure -a »?
[11:19] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: -print?
[11:19] <rawhite> ejv: maybe i should had stayed with that too everything was working superfine
[11:19] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: thanks to you..:)
[11:19] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  no it is because you are using . and not /
[11:19] <ejv> mysql gcc etc. those things aren't changing in any major way, why would i go thru the hassle :P
[11:19] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/945529/
[11:20] <ejv> 10.04 support ends april 2013, i'll convert next year :)
[11:20] <rawhite> ejv: what about feature upgrade and more easy of transition to newer versions if your not 1000years behind ? :)
[11:20] <nimesh_accenture> jrib: yes, after that i again tried apt-get install , looks like its expanding the packages which it didnt expand earlier
[11:20] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  it can not find the full path with .
[11:20] <rawhite> ejv: and what about security ?
[11:20] <robin> Hello I need to bridge eth0 and eth1 to allow internet on server2 through server 1, I know how to do that but I have to assign 4 ips to server 1 and 6 to server 2,  Do I alias the bridges and repeat?
[11:20] <rawhite> ejv: i hate to wait till the support is dropped to upgrade things
[11:20] <jrib> nimesh_accenture: ok
[11:20] <ejv> like i said, support for 10.04 lts ends april of next year, they are committed to security fixes until then
[11:20] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: k ..let me try
[11:20] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  plz paste find / -name '*error.log' -print
[11:20] <syddraf> ejv: And bugfixes. And new versions of software.
[11:20] <bobweaver> 1st ^^
[11:21] <Gyro54> Thanks for the help with Teamviewer7. It works great out of the box. I had a very low tech user at the other end and all is fixed.
[11:21] <ejv> yea i have a very conservative set of packages i depend on, they will not be shifting in any major way
[11:22] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: that's finding every error.log under "/" but
[11:22] <rawhite> apache 2.2.22 :)) hehe
[11:22] <ejv> woops i stand mistaken, support for 10.04 lts server ends April 2015
[11:22] <rawhite> theres a lot of 2-s in there
[11:22] <ejv> so i have a few more years to go heh
[11:22] <rawhite> ejv: 3 more years for you to upgrade :)
[11:23] <rawhite> ejv: and probably you will just reinstall then something right ? :P not bother upgrading to 14.04 :)
[11:23] <ejv> right, unless there's some huge improvement in filesystem journaling from the XFS devs or something; then i might be convinced to jump to a new kernel; doesn't mean i have to dump 10.04 though necessarily
[11:24] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  plz paste output so I can compair thanks
[11:25] <ejv> now if a motherboard dies or some other component, i could be persuaded, we'll see :)
[11:25] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  also what Dir are you in when running find . -name *whatever  ?
[11:25] <ejv> i prefer to not touch, that which is not broken :)
[11:25] <jamesstanley> Does anybody know how to get NetworkManager to remember WPA keys on Ubuntu 12.04?
[11:25] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: /bin
[11:25] <rockworldmi> ~/bin
[11:26] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: also tried with /var/www same result but cant paste it its too long
[11:26] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  the log files are under /var/www ?
[11:26] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: but if i do "find /var/www -name '*error.log' -print" it pastes only error.log under that dir
[11:27] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: yup
[11:27] <bobweaver> ok
[11:28] <rawhite> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 55 not upgraded.
[11:28] <rawhite> why do i get the following packages have been kept back
[11:28] <rawhite> ?
[11:29] <jamesstanley> rawhite: probably they can't be upgraded because doing so would cause a conflict with something which you have installed
[11:29] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  what about     find /var/www/*/log/ -name '*error.log' -print
[11:30] <jamesstanley> rawhite: if you then do "apt-get install package-that-was-kept-back" you will probably get asked about whether you want to do it despite the conflict
[11:30] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  you can use the wildcard in dirs also
[11:30] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: i am getting no such file and dir
[11:30] <jamesstanley> rockworldmi: what are you trying to do?
[11:31] <cihan_> hi
[11:31] <rockworldmi> jamesstanley: i am trying to clear the contest of all .log files under /var/www
[11:31] <bobweaver> rockworldmi, where is /var/www/what/ever/log  ?
[11:31] <bobweaver> what is the dir that the logs are under Full path that is
[11:32] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: /var/www/manyfolder/log/access.log
[11:33] <bobweaver> rockworldmi,  use the wildcard for the "manyfolders" part
[11:33] <rockworldmi> bobweaver: i trieed *
[11:33] <Darren> Hi Guys, I'm looking for some help. I've really been struggling the last few days with gettting squid/sarg/dansguardian setup and now my boss doesn't want me wasting anymore time on it so it must be done today...Would anyone be willing to remote into my box and set it up right for me?
[11:33] <bobweaver> sudo find /var/www/*/log  -name *error.log
[11:34] <bobweaver> if not working you could use regex to find
[11:35] <KristianDK> Any way to recover original init.d scripts from a package?
[11:35] <rockworldmi> bobweaver:  brb ..hungry ..after launch ..
[11:36] <Darren> Hi Guys, I'm looking for some help.

[11:37] <bobweaver> KristianDK,  use dpkg to do that ?
[11:37] <KristianDK> bobweaver, Sure, how do I do that? :D
 jamesstanley: i am trying to clear the contest of all .log files under /var/www
[11:38] <bobweaver> there are many ways to extract  a package one is  dpkg -X <name of package>
[11:38] <jamesstanley> rockworldmi: for f in `find /var/www -name '*.log'`; do > "$f"; done
[11:38] <KristianDK> ah ok, thanks
[11:39] <jamesstanley> rockworldmi: note that it is unusual to have log files under /var/www, they are more commonly under /var/log
[11:39] <KristianDK> bobweaver, ah, but then i need to find a .deb file first, right?
[11:39] <bobweaver> KristianDK,  what is package ?
[11:40] <KristianDK> bobweaver, a remote package, i installed it via apt-get, so i dont know where it came from
[11:40] <bobweaver> what is the name ?
[11:40] <KristianDK> mcollective-server
[11:40] <bobweaver> thanks
[11:41] <novato>  hola buenos dias
 tengo un problema con ubuntu 10.04
 tengo 2 ordenadores con ubuntu 10.04 instalado en cada uno de ellos+
 en uno de ellos quiero compartir una carpeta en el home
 con permiso de escritura
[11:41] <FloodBot1> novato: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
 desde el otro host entro en dicha carpeta pero no puedo crear nada
 por que?
[11:41] <bobweaver> Puppet !
[11:41] <fidel_> !en | novato
[11:41] <KristianDK> ?
[11:41] <KristianDK> mcollective works fine without puppet as well
[11:41] <KristianDK> they also integrate great, though\
[11:42] <bobweaver> KristianDK,  this is what you are talking about ? http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lynxman/mcollective-server-provisioner/trunk/view/head:/mcprovision.init
[11:42] <fidel_> !es | novato
[11:43] <KristianDK> bobweaver, this is the mcollective server provisioner, there is a package called mcollective-server, but couldnt find it on launchpad
[11:43] <bobweaver> thanks KristianDK
[11:44] <robin>  can somebody show me how to add multiple ips to my network interfaces http://pastebin.com/cMXkJvpT I will donate to the charity of choice to anyone who helps me
[11:45] <opti> is there a simple way to find out which upstream kernel a particular ubuntu kernel is built from?
[11:47] <bobweaver> KristianDK,  you got from puppetlabs ?
[11:47] <KristianDK> bobweaver, no, its included in 11.10 by default it seems
[11:47] <bobweaver> @_o
[11:48] <KristianDK> the problem was that i manage it with puppet, and there was various bugs because it was designed for debian and not ubuntu-upstart, which caused it to run itself a billion times
[11:49] <KristianDK> then i overwrote the init.d script (that puppet uses to restart services) and the upstart script, and now they upstart script works, but the init.d seems to be executed as well
[11:49] <KristianDK> so i need the original init.d script
[11:49] <KristianDK> if i delete it and reinstall the package, will it put it back in?
[11:49] <bobweaver> KristianDK,  http://apt.puppetlabs.com/enterprise/sources/2.5.1/source/   ?
[11:49] <SAXO> hello guys, has anyone try to use the 3.3 kernel with gnome 2?
[11:49] <gilisix> hi any body know where i can get a programme to unlock my cell phone
[11:50] <KristianDK> bobweaver, actually this is not it either :P but i think i can find the package somewhere, but is there really not an easier way?
[11:50] <worm> I have a strange problem. I have just installed a new ubuntu 11.10, and I have a well-installed 12.04. Can I just copy my /usr and /etc to my new system to configure it?
[11:51] <worm> I don't want to install them again and configure them.
[11:51] <bobweaver> lol KristianDK  not sure as I am v.new to puppet and chef sorry someone else ?
[11:51] <vectorshelve> I accidently preseed some keyboard shortcut and my screen colors have changed how to reset it ?
[11:51] <Ben64> worm: that'd probably be a very bad idea
[11:52] <KristianDK> bobweaver, its more like a general question - if you have any package and you accidentally delete or modify the configuration file, how do you get a default config file again?
[11:52] <trijntje> Hi all, virtualbox just caused a hard reboot, what log files should I inspect so find out whats going on?
[11:52] <bobweaver> get deb or source code for it KristianDK
[11:52] <jrib> KristianDK: apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install <packagename>

[11:53] <jrib> KristianDK: read about the dpkg options (confmiss may require the configuration to actually be missing, i.e. deleted)
[11:53] <KristianDK> jrib, sorry, i see smileys all over the place - can you paste it somewhere? :)
[11:53] <jlb181> yes it's down
[11:53] <KristianDK> jrib, its not a problem to delete it :)
[11:53] <vectorshelve> KristianDK:  I accidently preseed some keyboard shortcut and my screen colors have changed how to reset it ?
[11:53] <alusion> Ahhh okay...damnit
[11:53] <jrib> KristianDK: http://paste.ubuntu.com/945566/
[11:54] <KristianDK> vectorshelve, why in the world would i know? I only use ubuntu without a gui
[11:54] <KristianDK> jrib, thanks a lot man ;)
[11:54] <vectorshelve> KristianDK: oh god how to get it back :(
[11:54] <Gyro54> alusion: yes it is down for me
[11:55] <Bennlucky7> vectorshelve: restart?
[11:55] <KristianDK> vectorshelve, dont ask some random person that asked something in the chat
[11:55] <jrib> vectorshelve: search for info about compiz shortcuts.  It's probably something like "inverse color" or some accessibility option
[11:55] <vectorshelve> jrib: ok thanks
[11:56] <KristianDK> jrib, um, deleted /etc/init.d/mcollective now and ran the command, and its still not there :D Are there other flags for start scripts?
[11:56] <jrib> vectorshelve: alt-shift-PrintScreen seems like a possibility
[11:56] <jrib> KristianDK: are you sure you're using the right package?  What package? What filename exactly?
[11:57] <KristianDK> jrib, ran it again and it worked - dunno if my terminal just inserted a random character or something before
[11:57] <KristianDK> sorry about that
[11:57] <vectorshelve> jrib: http://www.ehow.com/how_8423829_display-inverse-colors-ubuntu.html helped window + N

[12:22] <jamesstanley> rockworldmi: "find /var/www -name '*.log'" outputs a list of all *.log files under /var/www, "for f in [list]; do [something]; done" goes through each item in the list and does "something" with it, and "> [file]" truncates the file

[12:51] <cereal> Anyone know what I should do if a specific user no longer has working sound but others do?  I've tried deleting the .pulse/ and .pulse-cookie files/folders and it only made it worse heh
[12:51] <meeep> Anyone around? I'm considering ordering a netbook to put Ubuntu on, but I'm not sure how well Ubuntu will support the Intel Cederview integrated graphics controller - searching doesn't seem to give me much in the way of answer, apart from an unresolved bug in Launchpad
[12:51] <mantise> .
[12:54] <chiliblue> meep have you searched the netbook model and ubuntu, personally for basic stuff I have never had an issue with gfx and linux.
[12:55] <b00b00> hello
[12:56] <meeep> chiliblue: yup, checked the model, chipset, graphics - only reference I can find is this one recent bug on launchpad specific to that model - seems they could only get 800x600 on the 1024x600 display
[12:57] <meeep> I'm tempted to just buy and try with a LiveUSB stick, got a small period for no-quibble returns, but figured it was worth asking first.
[12:57] <chiliblue> meeep whats the model, and where did you read about the resolutoin issue
[12:57] <chiliblue> 99.99% that it wouldn't be an issue
[12:58] <b00b00> little question, I have user on ubuntu, logged in via FTP, when copying files to the server to different dir than home_dir , I want the file to inheret perms from the dir copied to, any way to do so?
[12:58] <chiliblue> I have run ubuntu on acer one's and found them fine, although desktop is a little cramped on a screen with such a small resolution
[13:00] <kaiowas> If i buy a computer with windows on it, but don't want to use windows.. Can i get a refund from microsoft? Used to be able to do that?
[13:00] <yandex3829> kaiowas: You can try and get a refund from the seller (e.g. Dell), rather than Microsoft. Some people have managed. Best is to buy a computer without an OS pre-installed
[13:00] <chiliblue> no idea but I imagine it would be pennies
[13:01] <fidel_> kaiowas: why are you buying a pc with windows preinstalled then in the first place? in some countries refunding was done already - but it might be a big hustle
[13:01] <MonkeyDust> kaiowas  i'm not from the US myself, but start here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_refund#License_refund_policy
[13:02] <yandex3829> kaiowas: Alternately send an email to Mark Shuttleworth, and he'll send you a refund for Windows
[13:03] <kaiowas> I live in sweden, and thought that i could get a cheap laptop for linux..  And i just had this thing in the back of my head that some had gotten a refund if they didn't want windows on it. The seller i spoke with earlier today had absolutely no idea :).
[13:03] <fidel_> kaiowas: you should find several laptops without pre-installed windows on the market
[13:03] <fidel_> for sure it depends on the vendor
[13:03] <yandex3829> fidel_: Yeah, Macbooks ;)
[13:03] <fidel_> yandex3829: bla
[13:03] <yandex3829> I've never encountered a laptop with no OS pre-installed
[13:03] <chiliblue> kaiowas, however I doubt they would be any cheaper
[13:04] <rootworm> hi cansome one help
[13:04] <fidel_> yandex3829: i did
[13:04] <rootworm> i cant find the /etc/passwd file
[13:04] <rootworm> it says permission denied
[13:04] <kaiowas> chiliblue, maybe not cheaper, but a refund is a refund.. :).
[13:04] <fidel_> rootworm: cant find or no permission?
[13:04] <fidel_> different problem ;)
[13:04] <cereal> rootworm, sudo ;)
[13:04] <rootworm> why dont i have permission for tht
[13:04] <rootworm> no permission
[13:04] <cereal> because its owned by root not your user
[13:04] <meeep> chiliblue: Well, I can go for an older Samsung I've had which I know works, runs an N550 Atom processor, but battery life isn't fantatic. Considering an MSI Wind U180, but it's a fairly new machine with an N2600 CPU and this new Cedarwood graphics, which I'm concerned about
[13:04] <yandex3829> rootworm: Why should an artbitary user have permission to the passwords file? Think about it...
[13:04] <rootworm> sudo cat /etc/passwd
[13:04] <rootworm> tried tht too
[13:04] <rootworm> doesnt work
[13:04] <rootworm> dang
[13:05] <FloodBot1> rootworm: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:05] <fidel_> kaiowas: do youz calculate your time as well regarding the refund? ;) might eat the money-win
[13:05] <chiliblue> kaiowas, I fully support the principle just in reality it will be a lot of hassle
[13:05] <rootworm> well you call tht a flood..maybe i should exploit your source code moonbat crap
[13:05] <kaiowas> Its probably not worth it.. :/
[13:05] <vlt> I blacklisted my onboard sound chip module snd-hda-intel in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.  Now my only sound device (USB) gets hw:1 from alsa (not hw:0).  Any idea how to fix this?
[13:05] <vlt> (Test: When I `modprobe snd-hda-intel` later it gets hw:0) o_O
[13:06] <bazhang> fidel_, kaiowas lets get back on topic please
[13:07] <kaiowas> According to Microsoft's End User License Agreement for Windows 7 the ability to receive a refund for the operating system is determined by the hardware manufacturer:
[13:07] <bazhang> rootworm, what exactly are you trying to accomplish
[13:07] <donavan01> can anyone help me out here... I have a laptop (ubuntu 11.10)  on my network.  When I try to browse to a website the laptop acts like it is having and issue with DNS, which can't be the case unless its local to the laptop as the windows machines all have no issues.  does anyone have any insight ?
[13:07] <bazhang> !ot > kaiowas
[13:07] <Smylie2> hi @ all.
[13:07] <rootworm> im trying to build me own army
[13:07] <rootworm> if you must know
[13:07] <kaiowas> okey, my bad. Sorry.
[13:08] <LjL> rootworm: or maybe you could just not abuse your Enter key
[13:08] <bazhang> rootworm, did you have an actual support question? if not chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:08] <rootworm> my enter key is not abused
[13:09] <rootworm> i never would do tht abuse a key,,,tht would be pathetic
[13:09]  * rootworm pukes
[13:09] <szal> vlt: create (or edit, if it exists) a /etc/modprobe.d/99_local.conf (or something similar) where you determine the order of the sound devices (view the existing .conf files for hints on the syntax)
[13:10] <alusion> Hey Ubuntu I was wondering if Ubuntu had any good voice chat programs such as google talk or something to call people with [voip] ?
[13:10] <vlt> szal: Thanks, I'll have a look at it.
[13:10] <szal> !voip
[13:10] <LjL> rootworm: from now on please stick to support questions and answers (ideally on single lines). thank you
[13:10] <chiliblue> meep looks like it is solved, if you use the latest beta and you make sure the bios is up to date.  I can still play audio on the console, but since updates earlier this week (possibly yesterday) something is blocking access to the soundcard (or so I presume)
[13:12] <szal> yandex3829: as if that wasn
[13:12] <chiliblue> it is possible with a bit of messing around, but I think you can be certain it will get resolved in the standard release in due course
[13:12] <szal> 't obvious
[13:13] <X-tonic> hey, what time is 12.0 releasing?
[13:13] <X-tonic> *12.04
[13:13] <Sagi> it used to work in 11.04 and it also worked after upgrading 12.04 last week. I used snd_ice1712 and an optical output. mplayer on console works, sound while being logged in doesn't.
[13:13] <yandex3829> Sagi: I've given up on 12.04. Filed a bug report for a major driver issue months ago, no progression.
[13:13] <Sagi> I cannot seem to find relevant bugs.
[13:13] <meeep> Hm.. now, the question is, do I go for the newer machine, and hope to get it working, or go for the older one I know does? (both same price)
[13:13] <Pici> !outyet | X-tonic
[13:14] <satyanash_> !date
[13:15] <zykotick9> !schedule
[13:15] <Sagi> is the are more specific sound-related irc channel for ubuntu?
[13:15] <vlt> szal: I browsed the modprobe.d directory and found a "# Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0" block in alsa-base.conf.  How to find out which module my usb hardware actually uses?
[13:15] <Sagi> there*
[13:15] <X-tonic> yes it does so tomorrow, but what i was looking for was a countdown of sorts.
[13:15] <szal> vlt: lspci -k
[13:15] <Sagi> wow, that didn't make sense.
[13:15] <X-tonic> ie. Time + timezone
[13:15] <Sagi> does a more specific sound-related irc channel for ubuntu exist?
[13:15] <zykotick9> X-tonic: the "time" is generally not known beforehand, only the day
[13:15] <Pici> X-tonic: There is never a specific time.
[13:16] <men> Good morning from Tokelau. Is it out yet?
[13:16] <szal> bwaha
[13:16] <meeep> I remember on #raspberrypi isitoutyet was scripted to give a countdown to release
[13:16] <meeep> what a spectacular failure that turned out to be :(
[13:17] <vlt> Sagi: #opensourcemusicians, #alsa
[13:17] <vlt> szal: `lspci` for a USB device?
[13:17] <MonkeyDust> lsusb
[13:17] <alusion> If SUDO is all-powerful, can SUDO start a process that SUDO can't kill?
[13:17] <szal> if experience is any indication, then expect the release to be made official at around lunchtime in South Africa or shortly thereafter (~1200 UTC)
[13:17] <mads-> When I wget something the progress line can like expand from 0% to 100% without the surrounding text changes. Which libraries does this kinda "nice" terminal output?
[13:17] <X-tonic> a sudo paradox. :D
[13:18] <alusion> ಠ_ಠ
[13:18] <X-tonic> I doubt though. The sudo is indeed all powerful to kill the process.
[13:18] <petsounds> *highfive*
[13:18] <vlt> MonkeyDust: lspci's -k option shows the used kernel module. Is there something liek that for lsusb?
[13:18] <X-tonic> even if sudo started it
[13:19] <LordXe-gnu> mads-, for a snigle line it's probably not necessary to use any fancy libraries... just print a carriage return (\r) and it will move the cursor back to the beginning of the line, and overwrite the old line
[13:19] <szal> vlt: then 'lsusb -k'
[13:19] <vlt> szal: Invalid option -k
[13:20] <GG111> after upgrading to 11.10 my pc speaker is not working, did lots of googeling on that but no go.
[13:20] <versus_> reinstall ALSA
[13:20] <MonkeyDust> GG111  in terminal, type alsamixer, if you see MM (mute) go there and press m
[13:21] <GG111> MonkeyDust: yes, did that, it was on mute but it did not help

[13:23] <jrib> clueless_chick: how did you install it?
[13:24] <versus_> GG111 use synaptic
[13:24] <mads-> mcb_1, thanks
[13:24] <shani0610> why do we need swap partition?
[13:24] <yandex3829> clueless_chick: Did you not install it via a package manager?
[13:24] <jrib> !swap | shani0610
[13:24] <clueless_chick> good question. Using the terminal window… so is that from source code (note name: CLUELESS)
[13:24] <shani0610> !swap
[13:24] <GG111> versus_: shall I do away with everything that's alsa , in synaptic ?
[13:25] <yandex3829> clueless_chick: Did you use sudo apt-get install wine or similar command?
[13:25] <jrib> clueless_chick: what exactly did you do to install it?
[13:25] <shani0610> ok
[13:25] <clueless_chick> I used sudo port install
[13:25] <Ibtaya> Has anyone been successful installing a 6tb raid 0 on 10.04?
[13:25] <shani0610> then how much should I give swap out of 10 gigs?
[13:25] <yandex3829> clueless_chick: a/s/l?
[13:25] <versus_> reinstall alsa-base & alsa-utils
[13:25] <jrib> yandex3829: don't do that.
[13:25] <Pici> yandex3829: please don't do that here.
[13:25] <wylde> !asl | yandex3829
[13:25] <Pici> GG111: Is your sound working, just not your pc speaker (beeps?)
[13:26] <clueless_chick> a/s/l? what does that mean?
[13:26] <Pici> clueless_chick: just ignore it.
[13:26] <NewWorld> shani0610:  tonnes of info on swap partition size on the net)
[13:26] <jrib> clueless_chick: what does this command return: lsb_release -c
[13:26] <Ibtaya> any information on installing a raid?
[13:26] <yandex3829> It's shorthand for age/sex/location... it was commonly used in the golden age of chat (AOL)
[13:26] <MonkeyDust> !raid
[13:27] <versus_> GG111 Work?
[13:27] <shani0610> ok thnx all

[13:29] <GG111> Pici: login music is gone as well
[13:29] <inashdeen> bump
[13:29] <Ibtaya> ubottu, what I'm reading is that raid has to be set up at install, is that correct?
[13:30] <Ibtaya> haha
[13:30] <clueless_chick> -bash: lsb_release: command not found
[13:30] <GG111> is there a way to test that beep withoug rebooting ?
[13:30] <yandex3829> ubottu: a/s/l?
[13:30] <GG111> clueless_chick: you're just trying to remove wine ?
[13:30] <Ibtaya> does raid have to be set up at installation?
[13:30] <mohtadi> hi everyone
[13:30] <Ibtaya> hi

[13:30] <mohtadi> i have a problem please with my Ubuntu
[13:30] <mohtadi> if you could help me
[13:31] <clueless_chick> yes.
[13:31] <Ibtaya> does raid have to be set up at installation?
[13:31] <jrib> clueless_chick: what version of ubuntu is this?
[13:31] <mohtadi> 10.04 LS
[13:31] <mohtadi> in fact, i restared it when its suddenly stopped responding
[13:31] <GG111> clueless_chick: issue dpkg -l |grep -i wine , what do you get ?
[13:31] <rawhite> since i installed Ubuntu 12.04 and upgraded packages now my libvirtd wont work as used to before

[13:32] <clueless_chick> command not found
[13:32] <jrib> clueless_chick: what linux distribution are you using?
[13:33] <GG111> OK, the  sudo /usr/bin/dpkg  -l |grep -i wine
[13:33] <GG111> OK, then  sudo /usr/bin/dpkg  -l |grep -i wine
[13:34] <clueless_chick> uhhh…
[13:34] <martin_tsc> how can i manage my current partition?  It's locked in gpartition so im guessing there is some boot up shell i could use or?
[13:34] <GG111> clueless_chick: did you issue the command ?
[13:35] <GG111> I'll be be back in 5, reboot time.
[13:35] <martin_tsc> lol the name rings true
[13:35] <Stanley00> martin_tsc: I think you should use a live CD/USB
[13:35] <clueless_chick> yes. is says command not found
[13:35] <jrib> clueless_chick: please answer my question: what linux distribution are you using?
[13:35] <martin_tsc> i tried that before, but in order for that so save the changes it neds to install i thought.
[13:36] <MonkeyDust> clueless_chick  in a terminal, type lsb_release -sd
[13:36] <jrib> MonkeyDust: she doesn't have lsb_release apparently
[13:36] <craigbass1976> Is this the recommended method? http://weblog.scanyours.com/2011/08/23/howto-run-internet-explorer-8-under-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal-using-virtualbox/
[13:37] <Stanley00> martin_tsc: hmm, I don't think so... just try a gparted on live CD/USB
[13:37] <wylde> clueless_chick: or try    uname -v    in terminal.
[13:37] <clueless_chick> I'm not sure which distribution I'm using… I am in way over my head here guys..
[13:37] <jrib> clueless_chick: how did you install your operating system?
[13:38] <versus_> clueless_chick Gnome? KDE? XFCE?
[13:38] <GG111> Nope, still don't get a logins sound , or able to issue a beep sound here in irssi
[13:38] <MonkeyDust> GG111  same here, did not find a solution myself
[13:38] <versus_> GG111 other sounds are available?
[13:38] <GG111> MonkeyDust: and that was after doing an upgread to 11.10 ?
[13:39] <GG111> versus_: yes, all is perfect
[13:39] <mohtadi> GG111: you see, this is the time it takes to log in , in fact since i restarted it, i can no longer log in normally, i have to enter to recovery mode and log on
[13:39] <clueless_chick> gnome!
[13:39] <GG111> happend on two computers, same excat thing
[13:39] <mohtadi> i also have no longer to gdm , so i only can log in with xdm
[13:39] <MonkeyDust> GG111  yes, but 12.04 is out tomorrow, so i no longer look for a solutuin right now
[13:39] <versus_> Clueless_chick go into gnome task manager it will show
[13:39] <clueless_chick> I'm pretty sure it's gnome… and everything I type into my terminal window comes up "command not found:
[13:39] <jrib> clueless_chick: you don't seem to be using ubuntu.  You're likely using some other linux distribution so we cannot help you in this channel.  Please visit the channel for your distribution
[13:39] <mohtadi> and with xdm , i have also no longer access to networking, media and disk mouting, sound ...
[13:40] <GG111> MonkeyDust: yes, but If I can get this to work, I'll wait with 12,04 untill 2013
[13:40] <mohtadi> i have to check netroot in recovery mode to only get internet working
[13:40] <clueless_chick> o .. ok Thanks anyways! Sorry.
[13:40] <versus_> so...what distro?
[13:41] <jrib> clueless_chick: ##linux is a general linux channel.  While they'll also need to know what you are actually running, they can probably help you figure it out
[13:41] <clueless_chick> ok. Thanks a lot!
[13:42] <GG111> clueless_chick: if you issue  /usr/bin/dpkg -l |grep -i wine    on the terminal, you get nothing ?
[13:42] <L3top> she said she gets command not found GG111
[13:42] <MonkeyDust> or terminal not found
[13:43] <GG111> yes, that was for just dpkg, did not see that for the whole path
[13:43] <L3top> Which leads me to believe that she is not on anything buntu

[13:50] <versus_> cbmuser what distr?
[13:50] <cbmuser> it's currently set to 18 in gconf-editor, the same value as I have on another machine where the cursors are ok
[13:50] <cbmuser> Ubuntu 12.04
[13:51] <szal> cbmuser: -> #ubuntu+1 please (until some time tomorrow)

[13:52] <donavan01> alien64 ... dns is fine on the router it works for other machines on the network plus have hard coded the DNS servers into the machine so that it will pull from google and opendns and still no love
[13:52] <wylde> !patience | Smylie2_
[13:53] <donavan01> mcb_1   I can ping just fine ... which is why I know its not a DNS issue but it acts like one
[13:53] <Mars__> szal: It just stopped working, and no update or change work. Installer/downloader version, apt version from Adobe... No one.
[13:53] <Smylie2_> i just wanted to add the aircrack part. sry.
[13:53] <cbmuser> versus_: hmm, no, native resolution of the TF
[13:53] <cbmuser> T
[13:53] <cbmuser> everything is fine, just the resize cursors
[13:53] <cbmuser> really weird
[13:54] <rinzler> how does one enable backports repository from terminal? I only have ssh available to me for access at the moment...
[13:54] <mcb_1> donavan01: Please elaborate. What is happening?
[13:55] <alien64> donavan01: well there was the dnschanger thing going around the net so thought that might be it but if not a win machine when happening im stumped sorry:(
[13:55] <martin_tsc> When I upgrade to ubuntu11.10 my wifi dies, it still finds the networks but is unable to connect.  right now I reverted back to 11.04 unless.  Can this be fixed or is that a more elaborate project?
[13:55] <rethus> i use kde and mysql-workbechn, which need gnome-keyring
[13:55] <donavan01> alien64 ... its pretty much a fresh install anyways
[13:55] <rethus> but the passwords are not saved - even if i have installed gnome-keyring
[13:55] <rethus> any idea
[13:55] <mohtadi> UP : :D hi everyone :p i need help please :'( , i have all my work on my ubuntu and i need to make the system works normally again :\ i restarted it once after it stopped responding, and oops, no longer access to gdm (Couldn't connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused), can connect only with xdm, no longer access to networking, sound, media mounting and other feat
[13:56] <mefrio> hi all
[13:56] <mefrio> is there a way to sync iOS 5's music with Ubuntu 12.04?
[13:56] <donavan01> mcb_1 it acts like it cant find the address like for instance if I go to www.facebook.com it might load it might not ... most of the time not ... but I can ping facebook and it will come back ok
[13:57] <versus_> cbmuser dou you try to install dconf-tools?
[13:57] <_k2s_> hi all! i have a problem i was setting up a ftp server on my ubuntu 12.04 and i have accidentally put my user in a group called ftpusers and now it is not a sudoer... I have no root password set to easily change this. What could i do to make my user a sudoer again?
[13:57] <meeep> If you mean from the iTunes Match service using iCloud, mefrio, then I severely doubt it - it's tied to iOS and OS X devices.
[13:57] <wylde> !precise | mefrio _k2s_
[13:57] <cbmuser> versus_: no?
[13:57] <mcb_1> do an #mtr -n www.facebook.com Maybe you are lossing a lot of packetages along the way.
[13:58] <mcb_1> donavan01: do an #mtr -n www.facebook.com Maybe you are lossing a lot of packetages along the way.
[13:58] <martin_tsc> When I upgrade to ubuntu11.10 my wifi dies, it still finds the networks but is unable to connect.  right now I reverted back to 11.04 unless.  Can this be fixed or is that a more elaborate project?
[13:58] <_k2s_> ok thanx
[13:58] <versus_> cbmuser :install it then in terminal dconf-editor
[13:58] <mefrio> meeep, I don't really know what is iTunes Match, I just want to add songs to my iPhone music library using Rhythmbox, Banshee or something else as with iOS 4
[13:58] <cbmuser> versus_: will try
[13:58] <donavan01> mcb_1 I will give that a try
[13:59] <mefrio> wylde, it's a problem also of 10.04, 11.04 and 11.10

[14:00] <mefrio> meeep, yes
[14:00] <meeep> Might be worth checking out http://www.libimobiledevice.org/

[14:01] <Trieste> hi, I'm still stuck at 10.04 (due to various circumstances), when 11.04 is released, can I upgrade directly, or do I have to upgrade to 10.10 first?
[14:01] <mefrio> meeep, I have installed it but nothing changed
[14:01] <bazhang> Trieste, one step from 10.04 to 12.04 yes
[14:01] <donavan01> mcb_1 doesnt look like its loosing any packets
[14:02] <Trieste> bazhang: whoops, right, it's 2012, I meant 11.04 and 12.04 :) either way, thanks!
[14:02] <mcb_1> donavan01: Do you have any firewall rule in the machine?
[14:03] <smile> Hi. Is there an online version of Ubuntu One? :)
[14:03] <donavan01> mcb_I didnt set one up ... but that would block it from working all the time anywyas ... not just some of the time
[14:04] <sebastian> hey wasup guys
[14:04] <mcb_1> donavan01: Deppend of the rule.... But ok, no firewall. Mtr went fine with no package loss.
[14:05] <donavan01> mcb_1 nope its still plugging along and no loss I managed to get logged into facebook but now it wont let me log out

[14:06] <rethus> can somebody help me out
[14:06] <bazhang> !version | rethus
[14:06] <mcb_1> donavan01: Last try for me. Are you doing any other downlowad? Torrents? Like using all your link bandwith?
[14:06] <rethus> thanks

[14:07] <donavan01> mcb_1 no its fresh from a reboot and I dont have any torrent software running ...I have a monitor on the wlan0 and its doing a little here an there but nothing that should cause it to hang
[14:08] <sebastian> versus_ i've tried different ways like
[14:08] <versus_> sebastian format it to ntfs
[14:08] <sebastian> versus_ ok i'll try
[14:08] <Myrtti> smile: it is somewhat usable with a web browser, if that's what you mean
[14:08] <mcb_1> donavan01:  Is your connection PPoE?
[14:08] <smile> Myrtti: thanks :)
[14:09] <sebastian> versus_ could you tell me how?
[14:09] <donavan01> mcb_1 yeah but thats hadled buy the modem and I have no issues with any other machine on the network
[14:09]  * smile goes back to #ubuntu-nl :) bye :)
[14:09] <GhostWolf> sebastian:install ntfs-3g
[14:09] <sebastian> versus_ right click format ?
[14:09] <versus_> sebastian i guess
[14:09] <sebastian> versus_ ok
[14:09] <donavan01> im not getting an error in chrom that says "the server closed the connection without sending any data"
[14:09] <sebastian> GhostWolf i'll try your way too
[14:09] <donavan01> sorry now getting
[14:11] <mcb_1> donavan01: But it can be it, do #iptables -t mangle -o ppp0 --insert FORWARD 1 -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -m tcpmss --mss 1400:65495 -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu
[14:11] <sebastian_> versus_ do you know how to give my user root permissons
[14:12] <versus_> sebasian sudo???
[14:12] <sebastian_> versus_ i mean
[14:12] <sebastian_> versus_ permanently
[14:12] <rinzler> apt-get says "you have held broken packages" What does this mean, and should I worry about correcting it?

[14:13] <nitzs> so 12.04 out on the mirrors yet?
[14:13] <nannes> I have an ubuntu box already customized. Now I wanna take the image from it and install (via network) in 20 PCs... how would you do it?
[14:13] <versus_> sebastian i never use it cuz it's not safety
[14:14] <sebastian_> versus_ ok,
[14:14] <donavan01> mcb_1 I did it ... not sure what it was supposed to do
[14:15] <mcb_1> donavan01:  PPPoE datagrams are diferent from normarl ethernet datagras, this is rule is to alter de network datagram to the proper size. Did it work?
[14:15] <donavan01> mcb_1 doesnt look like it
[14:16] <inashdeen_> hi there, my usb modem (mf180) cannot be detected by network manager. it was detected previously, but when i installed a program from etisalat to check my SMS, its lost. i can connect to the net using wvdial, using the etisalat program and sakis 3g, but not with the default ubuntu connection. please tell me step by step to diagnose the problem
[14:16] <mcb_1> donavan01: So im out of ideas now.....
[14:17] <sebastian_> versus_ thank buddy... it appears to be working
[14:17] <donavan01> mcb_1 I may just try blowing the OS away and starting from scratch again if I cant figure something out in the next day or so
[14:17] <versus_> sebastian copy?
[14:17] <nannes> Hi! I have an ubuntu box already customized. Now I wanna take the image from it and install (via network) in 20 PCs... how would you do it?
[14:17] <mcb_1> donavan01: Good luck.
[14:17] <samueljw> does anyone know the program x3watch?

[14:18] <intore_> hi, i've this error when wlan0 tries to bring up: b43-phy0 ERROR: This device does not support DMA on your system. please use PIO instead. could you help me please. am using the cable now
[14:18] <versus_> sebastian u r wellcome! :)
[14:18] <donavan01> mcb_1 I will apparently need it ... I don't know why I always have to have some usolvable issue everytime I install linux doesnt matter the version or the machine some is always pain in rear
[14:19] <samueljw> I am trying to build a router that monitors traffic and flags mature content.  iptables tcpdump?
[14:19] <samster34> hey :) I'm trying to get SubmlimeClang working for sublime text 2 on ubuntu...having trouble though
[14:19] <alien64> nannes: clone the pc and install it to the others
[14:20] <nannes> alien: how clone? and..is it possible to install it via network to the others?
[14:20] <nannes> *clone how
[14:20] <samueljw> I am trying to build a router that monitors traffic and flags mature content.  iptables tcpdump?
[14:20] <samueljw> does anyone know how I would do that?
[14:21] <pixx> hi
[14:21] <mcb_1> donavan01: I never had this kind of issue, until having a client with PPPoE connection. As I read, PPPoE can be a pain.
[14:21] <samueljw> does anyone know how to read the content of packets in tcpdump?
[14:22] <[S^K]> What is a good piece of software to PULL files to a ubuntu web server from a HTTP location?
[14:22] <mcb_1> donavan01: One more thing, how it is your /etc/network/interfaces? Can you paste it?
[14:22] <donavan01> mcb_1 thing is though PPPoE is handled at the modem not this machine
[14:22] <donavan01> hang on a min
[14:22] <inashdeen_> bump
[14:22] <nannes> [S^K]: installing an ftp server
[14:23] <aznblur> o/, I just installed xubuntu on my desktop, mobo AsRock 870 Extreme3, cpu = AMD PhenomII x6 1055t, gpu = ATI Radeon 6870. The CPU fan and GPU (as far as I can tell) fan both run at near max. I've installed lm-sensors and used fancontrol's pwmconfig to no avail. Where do I go to now?
[14:23] <skrite> what tool do i want to get to know to find out what computer on my home LAN is the biggest bandwidth hog?
[14:23] <[S^K]> nannes: Files must be pulled to the web server, not pushed from a remote machine
[14:23] <alien64> nannes: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-to-clone-a-pc-695070/
[14:23] <donavan01> mcb_1 http://paste.ubuntu.com/945749/
[14:23] <samueljw> does anyone know how to read the content of packets in tcpdump?
[14:23] <jack_^> i got banned one time for being int his chat from 2 different machines at the same time. 'ban dodging'
[14:24] <jack_^> one was idle at work.
[14:24] <jack_^> :<
[14:24] <samueljw> I am trying to build a router that monitors traffic and flags mature content.  iptables tcpdump?
[14:24] <samueljw> does anyone know how I would do that?
[14:24] <alusion> Hello Ubuntu I just wanted to say that  Docky has stopped working, is this a current bug ? Running 11.10
[14:25] <samueljw> I am trying to build a router that monitors traffic and flags mature content.  iptables tcpdump?
[14:25] <bobweaver> samueljw,  ipcop ? pfsense
[14:25] <koegs> samueljw: just use something like ipcop or endian firewall
[14:25] <nannes> [S^K]: yeah, just install an ftp server on the same pc which has the web sv
[14:25] <wylde> samueljw: not sure if it's still out there but I use to use ipcop, with various addins for that when my kids still lived at home, heh
[14:25] <samueljw> ipcop blocks the content
[14:25] <rinzler_> want to install something that depends on libprotobuf5, but "isn't installable" any ideas?
[14:25] <nannes> [S^K]: you'll be able tu pull files from it
[14:25] <samueljw> ipcop doesn't do exactly what Im wanting.  Have you guys heard of x3watch?
[14:25] <samueljw> I would like to flag the content and then build a report and email it to a user
[14:26] <[S^K]> nannes: Ah I get it, thanks
[14:26] <ggochev1> http://openmaniak.com/tcpdump.php
[14:26] <aznblur> lm-sensors + fancontrol doesn't control my cpu fan. Is there anything else I can try?
[14:26] <rinzler_> samueljw: are you trying to make your own free version?
[14:26] <nannes> [S^K]: there are other ways also, but ftp is the best
[14:26] <samueljw> Kind of.
[14:26] <bouma> seeing as gnome 3 has removed the 'tighter layout' from nautilus, what options do i have to run an older nautilus with that feature under a recent ubuntu?
[14:26] <samueljw> I haven't really found anything out there
[14:26] <nannes> [S^K]: you can do it with PHP, with a file uploader utility
[14:26] <samueljw> that does it like tht
[14:26] <samueljw> other than x3watch on windows
[14:26] <[S^K]> nannes: I was using lynx to download a zip before
[14:27] <samueljw> I'd like to make something that works on a router instead of the client computer
[14:27] <lexxmt> I use squid3,  how I can configure to pass specific domains throw peer proxy? Like *.com go via parent proxy all other direct
[14:27] <samueljw> yes I am trying to make my own free version
[14:27] <mcb_1> donavan01: It is only showing the loopback interface. You can try to configure your interface there, maybe using a static IP for testing. As an understand, you have an ADSL modem, and the machine is linked to the modem by UTP cable, or Wireless connection. That is it?
[14:27] <bouma> does the mate desktop retain the 'tighter layout'? and can it be used with ubuntu?
[14:27] <nannes> [S^K]: yeah, so that server used php fileupload function
[14:27] <samster34> nobody use sublim text here I guess? :/
[14:28] <samueljw> rinzler.  do you know x3watch or other accountability software?
[14:28] <craigbass1976> Is this the official recommended method? http://weblog.scanyours.com/2011/08/23/howto-run-internet-explorer-8-under-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal-using-virtualbox/
[14:28] <rinzler_> samueljw: a router. Cool! If you could build it into dd-wrt or something like that, you could have a whole army of those things for people to install on their own...
[14:29] <jrib> samster34: please just ask your actual question, you'll have better luck that way
[14:29] <rinzler_> samueljw: yeah, people at my church use it
[14:29] <nannes> [S^K]: sorry,mistake. That server just put those files in a available directory of the website
[14:29] <HoNgOuRu> where is xorg.conf in 11.10 ? how do I make a permanent new resolution mode ?
[14:29] <samueljw> thanks rinzler.  do you have any networking/programming experience?
[14:29] <donavan01> mcb_1 ... it uses wireless through a router to connect to the ADSL modem .... so its MODEM[14:30] <jrib> !x | HoNgOuRu
[14:30] <rinzler_> samueljw: Not enough. as much as I'd love to help. sorry :(
[14:31] <samster34> jrib: I did. I can't geet SublimeClang to work. I got clang3.0 from the software center, I even downloaded it separtely and made sue the libclang.so is in the right place...and I don't get an error loadig libclang.so anymore, but nothing happens now.
[14:31] <rinzler_> samueljw: you might try #networking or something similar...
[14:31] <samueljw> Im just trying to figure out the method.  do you know anything about tcpdump?
[14:31] <samueljw> ok. thanks rinzler.
[14:31] <mcb_1> donavan01: Last tink that i can think of, do your Ubuntu install told you anything about "aditional" or  "proprietary drivers"? If so, check if your Wireless card need aditional driver. I can not think of anything else.....
[14:32] <inashdeen_> bump
[14:32] <jrib> samster34: I have no clue what you are trying to do and have some vague idea of what you did to resolve your issue after reading that.
[14:32] <samster34> jrib: :)
[14:32] <WhitePelican> is precise on schedule?
[14:32] <rinzler_> inashdeen_: no one can tell what your question is.
[14:32] <donavan01> mcb_1 nope ... installed everything clean as a whistle ... no hickups
[14:33] <jrib> samster34: you should say "I did X", "I was expecting Y", "but Z happened instead"
[14:33] <craigbass1976> samueljw, you're trying to see which computer is hogging bandwidth?  The only way I know, other than buying a ridiculously priced router or building your own Linux router, is by having an old fashioned dumb hub and using tcpdump
[14:33] <inashdeen_> rinzler_: hi there, my usb modem (mf180) cannot be detected by network manager. it was detected previously, but when i installed a program from etisalat to check my SMS, its lost. i can connect to the net using wvdial, using the etisalat program and sakis 3g, but not with the default ubuntu connection. please tell me step by step to diagnose the problem
[14:33] <OldOneEye> how do i install the latest apache
[14:33] <OldOneEye> how do i install the latest apache
[14:33] <samster34> jrib: I folowed the instructions here, epxecting to et the results described, but I get no results: https://github.com/quarnster/SublimeClang
[14:33] <jrib> samster34: what ubuntu version is this?
[14:34] <aznblur> lm-sensors + fancontrol doesn't control my cpu fan. Is there anything else I can try?
[14:34] <craigbass1976> OldOneEye, I can't remember the command, but google for install lamp server ubuntu.  Something like sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ but check before running that
[14:34] <samster34> 12.04, it didn't work t all in my old 10.04
[14:34] <jrib> samster34: and what exactly do you mean when you say "I downloaded it separtely and made sue the libclang.so is in the right place"?
[14:34] <rinzler_> craigbass1976: samueljw is trying to look at contents of packets to flag content to generate a notification e-mail. in this case, explicit content.
[14:34] <jrib> samster34: 12.04 is supported in #ubuntu+1 until final release
[14:34] <Travis-42> every time I plug in my usb headset, ubuntu stops outputting sound from my speakers (good), but puts the volume at 0 on the headset. Any idea how to fix this?
[14:34] <jcgs> OldOneEye: "sudo apt-get install apache2" will get you the latest supported apache
[14:34] <samster34> jri: I dowloaded the compiled binaries
[14:35] <craigbass1976> rinzler_, neat.
[14:36] <rinzler_> craigbass1976: yeah, there's already a browser for it, but he's looking at building software for a router, or firewall that does that kind of thing at the network admin level instead of at the client...

[14:40] <aznblur> lm-sensors + fancontrol doesn't control my cpu fan. Is there anything else I can try?
[14:40] <craigbass1976> rinzler, I was trying to figure out up here where all the bandwidth was going.  Took me several phone calls to find one of the old hubs to do a packet capture...
[14:40] <nannes> My brain is mixing & elaborating all the info I'm looking... I think it's possible to write the created image with a normal "network installation" method
[14:40] <nannes> alien64: ^
[14:40] <craigbass1976> Is this the official recommended method? http://weblog.scanyours.com/2011/08/23/howto-run-internet-explorer-8-under-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal-using-virtualbox/
[14:41] <alien64> nannes: yupperz

[14:44] <alien64> nannes: to deploy the img to multiple pc's id use clonezilla method but thats me...
[14:46] <nannes> alien64: ok, and what about MRB ?

[14:46] <jackbrownhf> could someone explain me what this command does "    sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --destination-port XXXX -j REDIRECT --to-port XXXX"
[14:47] <jackbrownhf> oo
[14:48] <alien64> nannes: if the cloned img includes it shouldnt be a problem
[14:49] <martin_tsc> When I upgrade to ubuntu11.10 my wifi dies, it still finds the networks but is unable to connect.  right now I reverted back to 11.04 unless.  Can this be fixed or is that a more elaborate project?

[14:59] <guest_____> is there a problem for wireless connections on 11-10?
[14:59] <meeep> myhero: please be patient. People will answer when they can, repeating the enquiry every minute won't get you an answer any quicker.
[14:59] <Pici> myhero: Please stop repeating so often.
[15:00] <intore> compdoc: this is that file. what do you think? http://paste.ubuntu.com/945791/

[15:01] <lennart_> hi guys, how does this work?
[15:01] <feydrm> Is 12.04 dropping today or ...?
[15:01] <compdoc> intore, that looks odd to me, but more important, does that comform to your nics?
[15:01] <feydrm> Is there a calendar somewhere on the wiki besdes just the roadmap timeline?
[15:02] <donavan01> if I get a beta will it upgrade to the full version when canonical releases the 12.04
[15:02] <compdoc> intore, in that file, delete the #PCI device entries, and reboot. that will rebuild the file and place the nics in the proper order
[15:02] <ubuntu__> hello all: I have run out of room on my home dir on my duel boot ubuntu/win 7 laptop. But there is a PQservice partition as long as I have made the recovery disk can this partition be safley deleted?
[15:02] <itadmin> Hi! Anyone know a good gui for "mt" ?
[15:04] <myhero> when printing any webpage....then how to change default format from .ps to .pdf permanently ?
[15:04] <intore> compdoc: it was wlan0 but it didn't work. the error was b43-phy0 ERROR: This device does not support DMA on your system. please use PIO instead. so i installed bcmwl-kernel-source and type the commands modprobe -r b43 ssb wl and modprobe wl and the interface has been renamed as eth1
[15:05] <myhero> too much time n no help so repeating question so that newer users could see it n answer...
[15:05] <compdoc> intore, when nics get renamed, /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules  can get screwed up, so its best to reset it
[15:06] <intore> compdoc: so, i'll delete the lines of wlan0 and eth1?
[15:06] <compdoc> delete them all
[15:06] <compdoc> # PCI device 0x14e4:0x1698 (tg3)    etc
[15:06] <compdoc> then reboot

[15:08] <thierry_> hi everyone
[15:10] <thierry_> i have made a dumb error , and now my sestem is down, i tried to upgrade my 10.04 to 12.94 with update-manager when finishing it indicated where do you want to install grub2, i selected my linux partition , and now, i have no longer access to either windows or ubuntu, grub indicates, grub_xputs is not found i think
[15:11] <ubuntu__> is it safe to delete PQservice from my Laptop HD? If so can I then move my /home dir to that space?
[15:12] <alien64> thierry_: is there a way to reinstall grub from the live cd>
[15:12] <thierry_> i have a live cd, i'm booting on it right now
[15:12] <thierry_> but i really don't know what to do
[15:12] <MonkeyDust> !grub| thierry_ this may be helpful
[15:13] <deadmund> ubuntu__: PQService is a recovery partition built in by the manufacturer.  It will not harm ubuntu in any way to delete it but it will probably make windows freak out and it will make you unable to restore your windows installation ever again
[15:13] <myhero> when printing any webpage....then how to change default format from .ps to .pdf permanently ?
[15:13] <meeep> myhero: DuckDuckGo (or Google, or whoever you search by) is your friend. Although older versions, it should be worth looking at http://michaeljaylissner.com/blog/change-the-default-print-to-file-to-pdf-in-ubuntu-hardy and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1228123
[15:13] <intore> compdoc: it doesn't work. the error message trying bring it up is: eth1: ERROR while getting interfaces flags: no such device
[15:13] <thierry_> MonkeyDust:  alien64  i does not understand why i have not access to windows
[15:13] <meeep> Now please, research yourself, and don't repeat your question so much - simply using new users entering doesn't justify the frequency.
[15:13] <compdoc> intore, you have a wired and a wireless nic?
[15:14] <alien64> thierry_: http://linuxpoison.blogspot.com/2011/06/how-to-reinstall-grub-2-in-ubuntu-using.html try this
[15:14] <compdoc> intore, sounds like eth1 doesnt exist anymore?
[15:14] <intore> compdoc: both, now am using wired and checking in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules there is not lines about eth1
[15:14] <ubuntu__> deadmund: I have recovery disks made from the data that partition when the the laptop was new do I still need the data in the partition
[15:14] <longwei> #qt
[15:15] <deadmund> ubuntu__: IDK, you tell me.  If you trust the recovery disks then sounds to me like you don't need that partition.
[15:15] <compdoc> intore, that means the system does not see the nic if one exists
[15:15] <MonkeyDust> !qt| longwei
[15:15] <intore> compdoc: fantastic!
[15:15] <intore> compdoc: maybe is not well installed?
[15:16] <compdoc> yes, the driver is suspect now
[15:16] <intore> compdoc: which checks could i do?
[15:17] <myhero> meep: thnx 4 refering ur frnd duckduckgo 2 me....will surely consult ur duckgo....
[15:18] <compdoc> intore, sorry, but I dont have experience getting BCM4312 to work - I know it can be a problem. Sometimes, a newer version of Ubuntu can support it
[15:18] <meeep> myhero: http://duckduckgo.com/ - clean search, no tracking ^_^
[15:18] <alien64> thierry_: you cant boot windows cuz grub dunno where windows is lol

[15:22] <upset> My usb drive won't mount. After I put an Android iso on it, cleaning it out does nothing and it's not accessible at all.
[15:22] <compdoc> intore, might be best to install fresh. but always backup first

[15:26] <meganerd> upset: or you could just use sudo
[15:26] <meganerd> upset: sudo fdisk -l
[15:26] <l_r> there must be some hidden places where to download it from
[15:26] <upset> meganerd: I did, I did. What am I looking for here?
[15:27] <bazhang> l_r, there are not
[15:27] <meganerd> upset: or the overly complicated way: "for each in /dev/sd[a-z] ; do parted $each print ; done"
[15:27] <upset> meganerd: I did it already! What am I trying to glean from this information?
[15:28] <meganerd> partitition infor for the drive that you were messing with
[15:28] <upset> I see it.
[15:29] <upset> meganerd: I already know what kind of partition I tried to write, and that's what it shows.
[15:29] <mynnx> why is apt-get telling me that packages "have unmet dependencies" and refuses to install, rather than just downloading/installing them like it normally does?  https://gist.github.com/2490610
[15:29] <meganerd> upset: so am I correct in assuming there is data on there that you want back?
[15:29] <compdoc> intore, boot the latest ubuntu live cd and see if it works
[15:29] <upset> meganerd: Not at all
[15:29] <meganerd> upset: are you just trying to mount it?
[15:29] <upset> meganerd: Yes
[15:30] <meganerd> upset: what file system is it?
[15:30] <upset> meganerd: fat32
[15:30] <intore> compdoc: ok, i'll try
[15:30] <upset> meganerd: Standard stuff
[15:30] <L3top> what are you typing to try and mount it upset?
[15:31] <meganerd> upset: what happens when you do: "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sd<drive><partition> /mount/point"?
[15:31] <meganerd> upset: changing the relevant parts of course
[15:31] <upset> meganerd: Uuuuuuh, mount point?
[15:31] <meganerd> upset: an empty folder
[15:31] <upset> meganerd: I can mount devices to random folders on my drive?
[15:32] <upset> meganerd: Like a boat?
[15:32] <meganerd> upset: it can be anywhere, the automount stuff usually uses /media, for custom ones for testing I use /mnt

[15:32] <alo21> hi all
[15:32] <upset> meganerd: Trying
[15:32] <gooren> yo

[15:33] <alo21> do you know a channel where I can talk about programming?
[15:33] <L3top> what language alo21
[15:33] <alo21> L3top: C
[15:33]  * L3top join #c
[15:34] <L3top> lol
[15:34] <L3top> tired sorry
[15:34] <mynnx> well, that was easy
[15:34] <upset> meganerd: Ran it, nothing happened. Shall I check /media/, the mount point?
[15:34] <upset> meganerd: Wuh.... There is nothing in media
[15:34] <L3top> type mount
[15:34] <L3top> there is nothing on the drive
[15:35] <upset> I did mount, it said the drive did not exist
[15:35] <L3top> the /mount directory is where you mounted it
[15:35] <excalibr> has the oficial precise iso silently hit the mirrors?
[15:35] <L3top> so it will appear empty
[15:35] <xamox> Can someone point me to an install guide to put ubuntu 12.04 on my mac mini?

[15:35] <myhero> how to change default os frm ubuntu to win7 during boot ?
[15:35] <L3top> type df -T
[15:35] <L3top> No, it will show the contents of the drive
[15:35] <L3top> which is blank
[15:35] <upset> L3top: What is that?
[15:35] <xamox> ikonia, the new mac mini's don't have a cd rom drive, so no so normal.

[15:36] <ikonia> xamox: normal usb page
[15:36] <ikonia> myhero: no idea,
[15:36] <L3top> that is a convenient way to see what is mounted, what the file type is, and how much space is available, and where it is mounted
[15:36] <upset> ikonia is here? Aren't you an Elementary dev?
[15:36] <xamox> ikonia, I will take a gander.
[15:36] <meganerd> upset: if you know the device, can you read the partition table?  eg: "sudo parted /dev/sdb print"?
[15:36] <ikonia> upset: not done much with Elementary for a long time
[15:37] <myhero> ikonia: how to change default os frm ubuntu to win7 during boot ?
[15:37] <alo21> L3top: thank you anyway
[15:37] <upset> ikonia: Oh. Why's that?
[15:37] <meganerd> upset: also, create an empty subfolder, /media is where automount creates folders, so you don't actually want to use /media
[15:37] <ikonia> upset: time
[15:37] <ikonia> myhero: you need to change it in grub
[15:37] <ikonia> !grub2 > myhero
[15:37] <upset> ikonia: Fair enough

[15:39] <GG111> anybody for system beep help ?
[15:39] <upset> meganerd: Gparted thinks it's okay, too. I keep doing checks, but nothing

[15:40] <myhero> ok
[15:40] <meganerd> or "sudo /dev/sdb1 /media/test"

[15:40] <upset> meganerd: Woah, what
[15:40] <ikonia> upset: what's the issue
[15:40] <ikonia> meganerd: that won't do anything

[15:42] <savr> and why can't I click to close?
[15:42] <upset> ikonia: Reads as normal though
[15:42] <meganerd> upset: if you don't care about the data, we can always reformat it
[15:42] <upset> meganerd: I did that
[15:42] <upset> meganerd: There is no data
[15:42] <meganerd> upset: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1 (or whatever the device and partition are)
[15:42] <ikonia> upset: what's the actual problem though ?
[15:43] <upset> ikonia: I can't mount it, I can't do anything with it
[15:43] <L3top> upset, I believe you did just mount it. df -T would have told you.
[15:43] <ikonia> upset: from what you've said, it's already mounted
[15:44] <upset> ikonia: It doesn't show up anywhere
[15:44] <upset> ikonia: All I have is a silly test folder
[15:44] <upset> wait
[15:44] <upset> It is mounted
[15:44] <L3top> yes
[15:44] <upset> according to gparted
[15:44] <L3top> if you type umount /media
[15:44] <L3top> the test folder will go away
[15:45] <upset> L3top: Hmm
[15:45] <quiescens> no idea what everyone is trying to do
[15:45] <L3top> btw, you should mount it to a folder IN there... as automount will create a temporary folder to mount things to in /media
[15:45] <L3top> I would not mount things to the root of /media
[15:46] <L3top> so sudo mkdir /media/usbdrive
[15:46] <upset> Unmounted, unplugged, replugged, untouchable

[15:49] <xamox> ikonia, Poked around the net, I think that doc is out of date, newer mac mini's appear to need refit installed

[16:05] <steve-o_> I have an Ubuntu 11.10 server that boots fine if I go to the bios boot menu and select the drive, but it won't boot otherwise. BIOS says " no boot device found." Would that be a grub problem? I never see the bootloader menu and this is the only OS on the drive.
[16:05] <upset> Aight
[16:05] <L3top> afk
[16:05] <upset> meganerd L3top: Trying
[16:07] <upset> meganerd: Aw sweet, it worked
[16:07] <meganerd> upset: awesome
[16:07] <upset> meganerd: Your command did the trick! I'm saving that one.
[16:07] <SafariMonkey> As no-one seems to know of one, is it worth adding to the wiki?
[16:07] <upset> meganerd: You would not believe how hard it is to get this thing back to normal after android, although android is really fun
[16:08] <upset> meganerd: Thanks so much, man. And if you would please, tell L3top thanks too
[16:08] <rabbi1> how to extract password protected .rar file without password ?
[16:08] <meganerd> upset: all that command does is remove the boot loader that android (or any OS for that matter) from the drive.  It should leave the partition table alone
[16:08] <upset> L3top: Thank you! Everything works now
[16:08] <meganerd> upset: glad to have helped
[16:08] <upset> Meganerd: Okay
[16:09] <upset> meganerd: Later, brother
[16:09] <meeep> steve-o_: Have you checked the boot priority order in the BIOS, make sure that drive is first (or after any disk drives, which are empty, i.e. DVD-ROM)?
[16:09] <Imre> Hy boys! Is there a way to make Application starter ( Ubuntu 10.04 LTS ) different / user, and if yes, how do I achive that?
[16:10] <steve-o_> meeep: Yes, I even disabled all other options. There is only one HDD and it is first in boot priority. Weird that it will boot fine if I just select the drive in boot menu.
[16:10] <Imre> for Example: I want Bob able to see "remote connection" command, but Sarah shall not see the command icon of the program
[16:10] <MrUnagi> if i install a dhcp server on ubuntu then disable dhcp on the router will all computers automatically pull from the ubuntu server when they expire?
[16:10] <upset> meganerd: AAGH
[16:11] <Imre> MrUnagi: Possibly, yes
[16:11] <upset> meganerd: I DON'T HAVE PERMISSION TO WRITE
[16:11] <upset> meganerd: ;_;
[16:11] <meganerd> MrUnagi:  if ithe dhcp server is running, and it could happen earier if a machine reboots or reaches the halfway point of the lease
[16:12] <meganerd> upset: if it is mounted, just sudo chmod 777 /media/<whatever automount puts here>
[16:12] <MrUnagi> meganerd: but theoretically there wouldnt be a disruption on the network
[16:12] <upset> bjorn_248: Aren't you the guy who makes all those nice themes?
[16:12] <meganerd> MrUnagi: nope, unless you make a mistake :)
[16:12] <upset> meganerd: What will that do?
[16:12] <bjorn_248> upset, nah, I wish :P
[16:12] <meganerd> upset: give all users write permission to that folder
[16:12] <meeep> steve-o_: it might be a long shot, but have you check the master/slave jumper status on the drive? If it's thinking it's a slave on the bus, when something else is master, that could cause issues
[16:12] <upset> bjorn_248: You have just the same name as a nice designer!
[16:13] <MrUnagi> meganerd: hehehe well if i apt-get install dhcp-server will it cause issues and conflicts
[16:13] <bjorn_248> :O, really, upset, you should link me :P
[16:13] <meeep> steve-o_: if it's master and the only one on the bus (or others are slave) it's fine, otherwise there tends to be a Cable Select option, which means it'll switch as the BIOS needs
[16:13] <upset> meganerd: Okay. Um, not sure what you mean by "whatever automount puts here"
[16:14] <SafariMonkey> Hello? people?
[16:14] <bjorn_248> hello
[16:14] <steve-o_> meeep: It worked when I installed CentOS but I switched to Ubuntu and it never worked correctly. I was thinking of slamming an old Windoze drive in just to see if it would boot off that normally. Also thought of upgrading the BIOS on the MB but haven't done either yet.
[16:14] <upset> bjorn_248: Looking, bro
[16:15] <bjorn_248> upset, that was directed at SafariMonkey as a friendly hello reply :)
[16:15] <upset> bjorn_248: Then tag him!
[16:15] <bjorn_248> I should have :O
[16:15] <skyme> salut à tous
[16:15] <upset> bjorn_248: Also, I can't find the artist
[16:15] <bjorn_248> hmm
[16:15] <upset> bjorn_248: He exists, he's just not a linux artist I guess
[16:16] <bjorn_248> I've had this username since 2003
[16:16] <upset> I only meant the name
[16:16] <upset> B jorn
[16:16] <upset> or Bjorn
[16:16] <bjorn_248> oh right
[16:16] <meeep> steve-o_: how did you replace CentOS with Ubuntu? Did you just put in a CD and wipe as you installed, or did you wipe the drive before installing Ubuntu? I'm thinking it might be a Master Boot Record issue
[16:16] <bjorn_248> it's a common first name in scandanavia
[16:16] <bazhang> !ot | upset bjorn_248
[16:16] <upset> :\
[16:16] <upset> Jeez

[16:16] <upset> Fine

[16:17] <upset> Man, at some times of day this channel is very uptight. Anyway, meganerd: what am I looking for in media?
[16:17] <magic_al> hi all, i have a hp laptop here with a working winows installation. i tried that some time ago and had problems with the internet connection. now i checked the laptop via a windows installation and realized that my ethernat card is broken. the wlan card is not supported by ubuntu. what can i do to get it work?
[16:17] <Imre> boys: Can U help me? Is there any way to make the Application starter ( GNOME ) different for different users?
[16:17] <magic_al> * sorry: i tried to install ubuntu 11 some time ago
[16:17] <steve-o_> meeep: I let it reformat the whole drive as if it were a new drive. We just decided to use Ubuntu because that's what we are more familiar with. It was a fresh CentOS install but we never used it. Just started over is all. I am thinking MBR too but not sure how to fix.
[16:18] <upset> meganerd: I am ridiculous, disregard what I just asked
[16:18] <upset> meganerd: Also trying
[16:19] <SafariMonkey> I was asking about lenses. I had difficulty finding lenses I wanted (wether they existed) and thought there would probably be a list of lenses so they could be browsed rather than relying on individual google searches for random topics of interest and top-ten type lists.  When no-one seemed to know of such a thing, I wondered if such a thing should be made, and where to put it (the wiki?).  Any suggestions?
[16:19] <upset> meganerd: Nothing changed. Still do not have permission.
[16:20] <Lazik> SafariMonkey: Yes great idea && the wiki is a fine place
[16:20] <savr> how do I move the location of the notifications
[16:22] <impi> hello, anyone upgraded from 10.4 desktop to 12.4?
[16:22] <iceroot_> impi: the guys in #ubuntu+1
[16:22] <impi> iceroot_, thank you,
[16:22] <SafariMonkey> Lazik: I am not too familiar with the wiki structure (I usually search it) so where in the wiki? This: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Lenses seems to be all about developent.
[16:22] <impi> im heading over there now
[16:23] <deiu> Hello!

[16:28] <myhero_> how to run a script in ubuntu ?
[16:28] <upset> meganerd: You owe me nothing
[16:28] <myhero_> how to run a script in ubuntu or terminal ?
[16:28] <meganerd> upset: try "sudo chmod 777 /media/<folder> -R
[16:29] <upset> meganerd: Trying
[16:29] <escott> myhero_, chmod +x ./path/to/script.sh; ./path/to/script.sh
[16:29] <upset> meganerd: Still read-only
[16:30] <OldOneEye> i deleted a user but his folder is still in /home ????
[16:30] <upset> meganerd: I opened nautilus with root permissions to try to change the same thing, and when I would select 'read and write files' it would reset to 'none' before I could even click 'apply permissions'
[16:30] <myhero_> escott: path is where the script is situated or the path to folder where i want run the script? also y this same path/..../script.sh command 2 times ?
[16:31] <fragske> even when you chmod the folder manually?
[16:31] <dbdii407> How do I find the location of my audio cards? Everything I find says /dev/dsp#, but that's not on my system
[16:31] <OldOneEye> i deleted a user but his folder is still in /home ????  how do i remove him
[16:31] <upset> fragske: You talking o me?
[16:31] <fragske> yes
[16:31] <llutz> upset: what filesystem are you working on? ntfs/vfat?
[16:32] <meganerd> upset: assuming the partition is /dev/sdb1, try "sudo grep sdb1 /etc/mtab"
[16:32] <upset> llutz: vfat
[16:32] <upset> meganerd: Trying
[16:32] <llutz> upset: use mount-options like umask/uid/gid for this, chmod/chown won't work
[16:32] <upset> llutz: Uuuh
[16:32] <meganerd> upset: you are looking for either ro or rw in the string that it returns
[16:32] <llutz> meganerd: no, he's not
[16:33] <RobinJ> How can I replace Metacity with Mutter, and keep the Unity integration working?
[16:33] <escott> myhero_, the first command chmod is to make the the program executable
[16:33] <meganerd> llutz: sure,  it will tell him if the drive is mounted read only or not
[16:33] <OldOneEye> i deleted a user but his folder is still in /home ????  how do i remove him
[16:33] <upset> llutz: She's not, but whatever. Wht am I not looking for ro or rw
[16:33] <llutz> meganerd: thats not the problem
[16:33] <RobinJ> OldOneEye, remove the folder
[16:34] <llutz> upset: "man mount"  you cannot use chown/chmod on non-unix filesystem like vfat/ntfs.
[16:34] <[snake]> hello.
[16:34] <genophy> hello.
[16:34] <savr> how do I move the location of where notifications show up?
[16:34] <upset> llutz: Oh. Um. Are we referring to the whole partition table, or the fat32 partition?
[16:34] <meeep> hi [snake], what seems to be the problem?
[16:35] <[snake]> It seems that I'm having  problems with ruby... and metasploit(specifically msfconsole.) on ubuntu 11.10
[16:35] <llutz> upset: i'm refering to the filesystem on the partition you try to access
[16:35] <upset> [snake] You should try.... PYTHON! HO HO HO HO
[16:35] <jrib> upset: that one goes in the quotes file
[16:35] <[snake]> upset, it's the program though I do agree with you, they should code metasploit with python maybe in the future. :P
[16:36] <upset> jrib: I'm sorry, but what are you referring to?
[16:36] <jrib> upset: I keep a quotes file where I record witty, funny, clever, and sometimes stupid things said in this channel :)
[16:36] <upset> jrib: I reaaaally hope it's not the last one
[16:37] <upset> llutz: Um, hold on
[16:37] <idefix> can you use soundKonverter in ubuntu?
[16:37] <llutz> upset: whats the mountpoint your filesystem is mounted to?
[16:37] <RobinJ> How to get Mutter working on Ubuntu?
[16:37] <[snake]> oh, i figured it out :P it needed a package called "rubygems" thanks guys.
[16:38] <upset> llutz: /media/drive
[16:38] <RobinJ> sigh
[16:38] <upset> llutz: Also the partition is fat32 as I said
[16:38] <jrib> upset: you're line 264
[16:39] <upset> jrib: That tells me nothing
[16:39] <llutz> upset: "sudo mount -o reount,umask=000,uid=1000 /emdia/drive"   will make it writable for all users
[16:39] <upset> jrib: Except that you have quite a collection
[16:39] <llutz> */media/drive   sry
[16:39] <upset> llutz: Bwuh, okay
[16:39] <llutz> upset: "sudo mount -o remount,umask=000,uid=1000 /media/drive"   too many typos, this should do now
[16:40] <upset> llutz: Trying
[16:41] <upset> llutz: Still read-only
[16:42] <llutz> upset: "mount  |grep drive"
[16:42] <upset> llutz: Trying
[16:43] <upset> llutz: What am I looking for in this printout?
[16:43] <llutz> pls paste the 1 line here upset
[16:43] <savr> how do I move the location of where notifications show up?
[16:44] <tiago> Does anybody know what time will 12.04 be released?

[16:45] <upset> llutz: Trying...
[16:46] <casa> hi
[16:46] <upset> llutz: Wait, testfile? Why would such a folder exist?
[16:46] <Guest45559> hey all
[16:47] <upset> llutz: Here, output.... -rw-r--r-- 1 savannah savannah 0 2012-04-25 12:46 /media/drive/testfile
[16:47] <llutz> upset: it shouldn't exist, you try to create it for a test. "id"  does it list "uid=1000(yourusername)"?
[16:47] <llutz> upset: so you have writeaccess to the drive/filesystem
[16:47] <upset> llutz: Well, then nautilus is high cuz I can't do anything with it.
[16:48] <llutz> upset: start a new nautilus, try again
[16:48] <jrib> upset: sometimes you have to press "reload" in nautilus
[16:48] <upset> llutz: Now it says I can't even unmount it because the drive is busy
[16:49] <elijah> How do I add options to a program when I start it?
[16:49] <llutz> upset: "rm /media/drive/testfile"  why umount? close all terminals/nautilus-windows showing /media/drive
[16:49] <upset> llutz: Nevermind, was able to unmount. Checking
[16:50] <upset> llutz: I was able to delete testfile with nautilus, but I cannot copy paste a file to it.
[16:51] <llutz> upset: you're running nautilus as user "savannah"?
[16:51] <upset> llutz: Yes'm
[16:51] <idefix> kan je een 11MB attachment naar een hotmail-account sturen?
[16:51] <kacong_> hey all
[16:51] <llutz> upset: that's odd, it should work.... "id"  does it list "uid=1000(savannah)" at the beginning?
[16:52] <upset> llutz: Checking
[16:52] <upset> llutz: Yes it does
[16:53] <llutz> upset: nautilus-issue... sry can't help any further because i don't use/really know it.
[16:53] <upset> llutz: I'm going to check with marlin.
[16:54] <upset> llutz: Woooow
[16:54] <upset> llutz: Marlin is working
[16:54] <upset> llutz: I love you, marlin
[16:54] <llutz> whatever that is...
[16:55] <upset> llutz: Elementary uses it

[17:03] <whoever_> hey all, where do you change the domain name of a box
[17:04] <mynnx> can someone do me a favor and tell me if "apt-get -q -y install python-mysqldb=1.2.2-10build1" succeeds for any of you?  https://gist.github.com/2490610
[17:06] <Pici> mynnx: What release are you using?
[17:06] <mynnx> Pici: lucid
[17:06] <whoever_> need help changing ubuntu domain name, it thinks its domain is the box name
[17:07] <meeep> whoever_: it may seem like a silly question, but do you mean the hostname for the box, workgroup name (for connecting to MS workgroups) or an actual domain name (i.e. the machine being ubuntubox.yourdomain.com)?
[17:07] <meeep> If you're wanting to change the hostname (ie. the identifying name for that machine on networks) - http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/01/how-to-change-hostname-in-ubuntu-11-10/ will help
[17:08] <meeep> domain names generally aren't tagged to machines unless they're set up in a specific way for a LAN
[17:08] <Pici> mynnx: I have it installed on my lucid server just fine.
[17:09] <mynnx> Pici: strange.  I've done some more digging, and mysql-common (a dependency of a dependency of python-MySQLdb) wants to uninstall Percona when I install it
[17:09] <mynnx> maybe that's why it's just failing to grab dependecies
[17:10] <Pici> mynnx: Try it with --no-install-recommends
[17:11] <mynnx> Pici: no dice.
[17:12] <comm> I've added a ppa that has one package I require. I want to pin all the packages from the ppa to 450 and, then pin the squid3 package to 500. Doesn't seem to be working, is it even possible to do that?
[17:12] <cgtdk> What is the current state of Intel graphics drivers for Linux (free/proprietary)?
[17:12] <dr_jesus> cgtdk: If you install them you can browse the web
[17:14] <cgtdk> dr_jesus: What?
[17:14] <L3top> cgtdk: xserver-xorg-video-intel and libva-driver-i965 for accelleration. For precise it is i965-va-driver
[17:15] <L3top> Unless the chipset is an i128 or i740...
[17:15] <ubuntu__> siema
[17:18] <cgtdk> L3top: I see. But how good are the drivers?
[17:18] <hariom> How to increase parallel data fetch capacity. For example in windows I guess default is 5 processes can fetch in parallel. Sixth will have to wait for any one of the pervious 5 to finish. Is it same in Ubuntu?
[17:18] <Pici> mynnx: I think I found the issue.
[17:20] <Pici> mynnx: Which percona repo do you have enabled?
[17:21] <Pici> hariom: fetch data from where?
[17:21] <mynnx> Pici: it's an internal one; we built debs
[17:24] <hariom> Pici: from the internet. Like fetching images from a site or fetching pdfs from hundreads of pdf links on some site on the internet
[17:24] <Pici> mynnx: Ahh.  I've been looking at http://repo.percona.com/apt/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages and it looks like the versions there should JustWork™ and seamlessly replace the versions in Lucid.  A mix of packages from lucid main and the percona repo would create issues.
[17:24] <tasslehoff> Will any of the Ubuntu installers let me unlock and install to an already encrypted LVM volume?
[17:24] <NeoDestruction> Hello i want to know how to recover lost data (ie: pic, music, doc) because i originally wanted to have windows and ubuntu run side by side but it seems to have deleted my windows os :/ help!!!
[17:26] <mynnx> Pici: can you elaborate?  I'm not sure I understand what you're saying
[17:26] <whoever_> what file contains the domain that ubuntu thinks its part of
[17:27] <dr_jesus> whoever_: /etc/samba/smb.conf?
[17:28] <whoever_> dr_jesus: it says workgroup but when i try to acces it i i get a login prompt, that says domain <computer name >
[17:29] <intrader> All, successfully repaired boot problem (would not boot to Windows XP) by using program testdisk. NOw I can choose to botot linux of Windows XP. THanks
