[00:13] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Does anyone have experience installing BURG over GRUB on a system that dual-boots 12.04 and Windows?
[00:14] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, Yes. What would you like to know?
[00:14] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: Uh, how to install it?
[00:15] <hmmwhatsthisdo> I tried doing it earlier and sudo burg-emu gave me a grub prompt
[00:15] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, I installed it from the PPA, along with Super Boot Manager to set it up
[00:15] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Seeing as how I'm an ubu-noob, care to walk me through that?
[00:16] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, One sec
[00:16] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, http://www.overclock.net/t/1251224/guide-installing-burg-and-super-boot-manager-in-ubuntu-inc-12-04-lts
[00:18] <starbuck33> is there a wa to remove bookmarks from the document viewer?
[00:19] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: I still get a grub prompt when I do burg-emu
[00:20] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, did you follow all the steps in the article?
[00:21] <WeThePeople> \
[00:21] <hmmwhatsthisdo> added the PPA (well, I did earlier), updated, installed (both were already installed), installed to /dev/sda, no errors reported
[00:22] <chris92> can I someone set my USC to only display free applications?
[00:22] <cakebosd> Hey all. I have ubuntu in virtual box. The host computer has no monitor so the screen resolution is at the lowest settings. How can I edit ubuntu to have a greater resolution? Before it was sizeable but when I installed drivers for virtualbox in ubuntu it "fixed" the resolution so now its tiny.
[00:22] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: imgur.com/VLK1i
[00:22] <hmmwhatsthisdo> gah, silly link highlight
[00:22] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: http://imgur.com/VLK1i
[00:23] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, that's BURG not GRUB
[00:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: yes, but shouldn't I be seeing a visual window?
[00:23] <[deXter]> Just use SBM to finish the installation and choose a theme
[00:23] <[deXter]> hmmwhatsthisdo, you haven't finished installing it yet
[00:24] <hmmwhatsthisdo> oh.
[00:24] <wutang> Sean Williams?  I have ubuntu in virtual box. The host computer has no monitor so the screen resolution is at the lowest settings. How can I edit ubuntu to have a greater resolution? Before it was sizeable but when I installed drivers for virtualbox in ubuntu it "fixed" the resolution so now its tiny.
[00:25] <wutang> sorry Idleo0ne
[00:25] <IdleOne> wutang: this is a support channel, if you wish to chat please join #ubuntu-offtopic (note that swearing is not acceptable in any Ubuntu channels)
[00:25] <wutang> Idle0ne I heard you the first time, calm down you bot
[00:26] <IdleOne> wutang: I was making myself clear. Drop the attitude please.
[00:26] <cakebosd> wutang: I am the sofa king. Do your knee grows?
[00:26] <Nsmurf> Can anyone suggest a ubuntu laptop under $400?
[00:26] <wutang> knee grow? This is the 21st century, no need for such racist remaarks
[00:26] <wutang> @Nsmurf, anything at all
[00:27] <Nsmurf> so far i found:MeeNee 13.1" Pro
[00:27] <Nsmurf> Kogan Agora Pro
[00:27] <Nsmurf> System 76 Starling Netbook
[00:27] <Nsmurf> ZaReason Teo Pro netbook
[00:27] <Nsmurf> Latitude 2120 Netbook
[00:27] <FloodBot1> Nsmurf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:27] <hmmwhatsthisdo> [deXter]: the repo in the latter half of step 5 is already checked and listed as being precise, should I skip it?
[00:28] <[deXter]> yeah
[00:29] <mrdeb> hello. i noticed ubuntu 1210 is faster than 1204 which is slow
[00:29] <mrdeb> is it bec gnome 3.5 is faster
[00:30] <blackshirt> mrdeb, not yet play with 12.10
[00:30] <game16> Concurrency question here! In what cases would a multithreaded application run faster on a single core processor than on a multi core processor?
[00:30] <smj> I don't have a xorg.conf, and it works by autodetection, but I need to change the configuration to enable v-sync in nouveau. if I create xorg.conf, does it still attempt to autodetect everything else? or do I need to figure out how to create a complete configuration file?
[00:30] <Daekdroom> !quantal | mrdeb
[00:31] <mrdeb> smj, why not use nvidia driver
[00:32] <Daekdroom> smj, yes, it does autodetect everything else.
[00:32] <smj> mrdeb: it ruins the ctrl-alt-fX terminals
[00:32] <blackshirt> !linux
[00:32] <smj> Daekdroom: thanks
[00:32] <mrdeb> huh?
[00:32] <mrdeb> it is much faster
[00:32] <mrdeb> and less noise from video card
[00:33] <blackshirt> mrdeb, soubd greats :d
[00:33] <blackshirt> sound
[00:33] <smj> mrdeb: my video card is passive
[00:33] <mrdeb> ok
[00:34] <mrdeb> smj yes, but nouveau doesnt drop frequencies
[00:34] <Daekdroom> It doesn't even do frequencies correctly.
[00:35] <Basstard`> blackshirt: Is there a !gnu ?

[00:43] <Nsmurf> On thinkpenguin they say that the computers start at 249.  Where are the cheap laptops then?
[00:43] <rosslazer> Respite212: It's an app that stops your computer from going to sleep
[00:43] <Respite212> rosslazer: err so I sudo apt-get caffeine?
[00:44] <rosslazer> Respite212: google the app you need to add the repo first

[01:04] <Basstard`> niargh: Lesson learned. Don't buy unsupported hardware. Research beforehand.
[01:05] <niargh> basstard: fair enough, am I screwed, or is there hope?
[01:06] <Basstard`> niargh: Sure there's hope, things will work eventually.

[01:11] <jrou> :(
[01:11] <Basstard`> niargh: Hm?
[01:12] <Basstard`> niargh: My brain deciphers hcl as hardware compatible list?
[01:12] <niargh> Bastard`: where can I find a hardward compatibility list for ubuntu?
[01:14] <voidmain_> Hi guys, I was wondering if somebody here could possibly help me with the following problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2061233 (updates are not installing)
[01:14] <niargh> Bastard`: nvm, googled it, sorry about that
[01:14] <Basstard`> niargh: Uhm, on the net? Best way is to find whatever device gives you problems and investigate from that. I don't use Ubuntu though, I use Trisquel, and for hardware working with fully free software there is a list at h-node.org
[01:15] <niargh> Bastard`: cool, thx, will check out h-node.org
[01:18] <tyler_d> anyone care to take a stab at getting the 'fn' key working on a bluetooth apple keyboard, not showing a thing in xev?

[01:29] <magma> Anybody can point me out a program to make 3D plots?
[01:29] <DaemonicApathy> I would imagine that they will be updating for your keyboard at some point.
[01:30] <ramos> Need help with access to webcam via ssh...Can anyone help?
[01:31] <ramos> Need help with access to webcam via ssh...Can anyone help?
[01:31] <WeThePeople>  what is the diff between backtrack 5 , R1, R2, R3 ??
[01:31] <WeThePeople> ramos, have you looked at ssh -h
[01:31] <wilee-nilee> !backtrack
[01:32] <ramos> WeThePeople, what I'm trying to do is access a webcam on my computer from outside my network...
[01:33] <gyu> does anyone know how i can boot freedos in order to flash a bios?
[01:33] <ramos> i'm familiar with ssh
[01:33] <gyu> * i don't have a usb flash drive
[01:33] <Nsmurf> For buying a ubuntu laptop, i'm looking at the Teo netbook pro.  Anyone have experince with it?
[01:33] <wilee-nilee> gyu, No MS setup
[01:33] <WeThePeople> ramos, im not fam. with ssh
[01:34] <gyu> wilee-nilee what? no, freedos is not microsoft. it's a free implementation of DOS (disk based operating system) which is required to flash a BIOS
[01:34] <wilee-nilee> gyu, Most bios flash now have the ability to run from windows or load a usb or cd.
[01:35] <gyu> wilee-nilee- no cd. must be run from DOS
[01:35] <wilee-nilee> gyu, The methods I suggest run a DOS install DUH.
[01:37] <wilee-nilee> look closer at your options
[01:37] <gyu> i think the only way i can do this is if i setup grub to boot from a DOS image
[01:37] <gyu> not sure how to do it though
[01:38] <wilee-nilee> gyu, I doubt that my 5 year old toshiba MS or cd install, my aceraspire same
[01:38] <gyu> wilee-nilee; don't talk if you aren't going to make sense.
[01:40] <wilee-nilee> gyu, Uh okay I installed the bios on both of those computers using both methods, a cd or from windows, does that make sense to you and check what the bot says on attitude
[01:41] <goddard> Why do manufacters like system 76 have less attractive laptops compared to the new ultrabooks?
[01:41] <gyu> wilee-nilee: i just said i don't have a cd-r/usb flash drive. if you would speak in clear full sentences i'd understand what you were saying.
[01:42] <gyu> goddard:thinkpenguin.com has a sweet ultrabook
[01:42] <Ray2> !attitude | gyu
[01:42] <wilee-nilee> goddard, system 76 has a linited amount of laptops to use, them against whole industry of them should be your answer.
[01:43] <goddard> gyu: that sucker is stil pretty large compared to a zen book, air, or even vizios laptop and tons of others
[01:43] <gyu> wilee-nilee: are you trying to be helpful? it's obviously not what he is after.
[01:43] <gyu> goddard: are you looking for a 13.3" ?
[01:44] <goddard> gyu: i am just looking into linux manufacters really but a small ultrabook form factor
[01:45] <gyu> goddard: the ultrabook has certain specifications dictated by intel. the thinkpenguin.com's ultrabook complies with those specifications. the one is NOT an ultrabook although the 2nd 14" model is.
[01:45] <gyu> goddard: if you are looking for something smaller than a 14" screen the specifications dictate slightly smaller; same without an optical drive.
[01:46] <goddard> ahh
[01:46] <ramos> geoffw8_, do you know anything about webcams?
[01:46] <ruscour> anyone know how to get Shatter from HIB6 to run in windowed mode?

[01:50] <stankwagon> why do people idle?
[01:50] <stankwagon> what about IRC makes them idle?

[02:05] <vfw> What is the latest kernel for a fully updated 12.04.1 system?
[02:05] <vfw> uname -a
[02:06] <vfw> anyone?
[02:06] <DaemonicApathy> Mine is 3.2.0-31-generic
[02:06] <zykotick9> !info linux-image | vfw
[02:07] <DaemonicApathy> Does that message need updating, or am I randomly ahead of the curve?
[02:07] <tyler_d> oh dear me with my wireless apple keyboard, as the upstream dev's are apparently to busy to add 2 lines of code :( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/911064
[02:09] <Ben64> !info linux-image Lucid
[02:09] <Ben64> !info linux-image lucid
[02:10] <tyler_d> I'm going to take the plunge and try linux-3.6-rc7 .... pending it has hardware support for 05ac:0255
[02:10] <zykotick9> !msgthebot > Ben64
[02:10] <tyler_d> !msgthebot > tyler_d
[02:11] <tyler_d> I want to see
[02:11] <DEstlund> I'm having trouble configuring the resolution for a second monitor with nvidia--it's not recognized at all without the proprietary drivers and won't go over 800x600 with them...
[02:11] <Ben64> zykotick9: I did it once :|
[02:11] <zykotick9> Ben64: 2.6 ftw ;)  fyi lucid was based off debian squeeze when it was in testing, so lucid has <9 months support and squeeze has 1 year+ at least ;)
[02:12] <Ben64> I'm still not ready for precise
[02:12] <tyler_d> thanks ubottu
[02:12] <zykotick9> Ben64: i loved lucid for a while!  but left ubuntu pre-unity... </OT>
[02:12] <tyler_d> Ben64: I'm using it and I'm still not sure about it either
[02:13] <markovh> why was sqlmap removed from the latest ubuntu?
[02:13] <tyler_d> zykotick9: I ran from ubuntu for opensuse 12.2... which lasted about 2 weeks before I had enough and here I am
[02:14] <zykotick9> markovh: latest = 12.04 or 12.10?  <i have no idea, just curious what you mean>
[02:14] <tyler_d> alright... now lets break this beast... hopefully be back shortly wiht a new kernel :o
[02:15] <wilee-nilee> zykotick9, Out of curiosity you don't have to answer what are you running.
[02:15] <Ben64> zykotick9: 12.10 isn't latest yet
[02:16] <zykotick9> markovh: it was in natty...
[02:16] <zykotick9> Ben64: I AGREE!
[02:16] <markovh> zykotick9: natty isn't the latest...
[02:16] <zykotick9> markovh: no it isn't
[02:17] <zykotick9> markovh: but that appears to be the last time "!info sqlmap natty" works ;)
[02:18] <markovh> that's great... my originall question was WHY was it removed
[02:18] <markovh> it was avail in oneiric btw
[02:18] <zykotick9> markovh: that so long ago.  do you expect anyone to remember?
[02:18] <Ben64> sometimes packages get removed because they don't get updated
[02:18] <zykotick9> markovh: sorry, ya i didn't check oneiric!  my bad.
[02:19] <wuhei101> 我也进来了
[02:19] <markovh> Ben64: right but i'm wondering if there was a specific reason, i do realise if they don't get updated, they're removed (or for various other reasons)
[02:19] <Ben64> you'd probably have to talk to a package maintainer or something
[02:20] <zykotick9> markovh: does the reason really matter?  it's not in ubuntu repo anymore, so you can A) not use it or B) get it from out of repo...
[02:21] <themindbenders> hi
[02:21] <DaemonicApathy> Hello.
[02:21] <markovh> zykotick9: i'm curious? dude if you didn't know the answer that's all you had to say (or just not answer) I was just wondering if anyone happened to know
[02:21] <wuhei101> hello
[02:21] <themindbenders> i am using first time
[02:21] <themindbenders> time
[02:21] <DaemonicApathy> Welcome to Ubuntu! :-)
[02:21] <wuhei101> so do i
[02:22] <nerd> ubuntu-server uses ubuntu LTS version as it's base ?
[02:22] <zykotick9> markovh: it's on ot issue... see "/msg ubottu ot" for details ;)
[02:22] <themindbenders> ya u i know
[02:22] <DaemonicApathy> nerd: Ubuntu server 12.04 does.
[02:22] <Ben64> nerd: you can get ubuntu server in any version, but the latest is LTS
[02:22] <themindbenders> then
[02:22] <themindbenders> hi cell

[02:23] <zykotick9> !u > themindbenders
[02:23] <themindbenders> what is this man
[02:24] <zykotick9> themindbenders: just ask your question all on one line.  and use ENTER less.  and don't use "u" for "you" ;)
[02:24] <DaemonicApathy> zykotick9: does that PM redirection work from PM with the bot?
[02:25] <WeThePeople> would it be possible to reinstall x11 or the xorg-server to my ubuntu on my hdd with a live cd?
[02:26] <Ben64> WeThePeople: why not do it from command line on your installation
[02:26] <devdel> I am trying to find a guide for setting up my ubuntu computer as a router/firewall/nat/dhcp -server
[02:27] <WeThePeople> ben64, how
[02:27] <devdel> Any info where I can read about it?
[02:27] <Nsmurf> If anyone has experince buying from ZaReason, onec a computer is out of stock, do they ever restock it?  If so, how long does it usualaly take?
[02:27] <Ben64> WeThePeople: when you start the computer, what happens?
[02:27] <WeThePeople> devde1, 'Linux Bible'
[02:28] <WeThePeople> ben64, i go to grub boot menu then select the kernel i want but ubuntu gui doesnt boot, i can only boot to tty
[02:29] <Ben64> WeThePeople: then you can just do something like "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg"
[02:29] <WeThePeople> ben64, it says it needs to run in low graphics mode
[02:29] <WeThePeople> ben64, thats what i was thinkin :)
[02:29] <DaemonicApathy> WeThePeople: You don't need much in the way of graphics for a tty. ;-)
[02:30] <Ben64> sounds more like you have a graphics driver problem
[02:30] <DaemonicApathy> WeThePeople: Out of curiosity, does it do anything when you hit Ctrl+Alt+F7?
[02:31] <WeThePeople> ben64, or a install --reinstall :)
[02:31] <WeThePeople> daemonicapathy, idk nvr tried
[02:32] <JayRizzle> Can anyone out there help me with an install issue?
[02:32] <DaemonicApathy> !ask | JayRizzle
[02:32] <zykotick9> !anyone | JayRizzle
[02:33] <zykotick9> JayRizzle: also see "/msg ubottu details"
[02:33] <JayRizzle> Sorry about that. I am having an issue with my hardware -- I think it's too new. I have a 2700k i7. I have a gtx 580 3gb card and a new motherboard.
[02:33] <tonsofpcs> !!flooding the channel with ubottu quotes
[02:33] <JayRizzle> Everytime i try installing it just freezes on the install screen.
[02:33] <zykotick9> tonsofpcs: my bad.  sorry i'll stop.
[02:34] <DaemonicApathy> JayRizzle: What are the specs of the system?
[02:34] <tonsofpcs> JayRizzle: which install screen?
[02:34] <Nsmurf> Does anyone know how ZaReason sales work?  From what I see, it looks like  once a computer is out of stock, they never restock it.
[02:35] <themindbenders> how to bruteforce a rar file?
[02:35] <zykotick9> JayRizzle: do you use nvidia / ati?
[02:35] <WeThePeople> daemonicapathy, at what point should i hit crl alt f7 ?
[02:35] <zykotick9> JayRizzle: if so, you might want to see "/msg ubottu nomodeset"
[02:35] <blackshirt> thereminder, what the mean bruteforce?
[02:35] <JayRizzle> I just said the specs of the system. I get past the GRUB and the BIOS, but when it says "Installing ubuntu" with the ubuntu background, it looks like ubuntu, but just freezes.
[02:35] <JayRizzle> I am using nvidea.
[02:36] <DaemonicApathy> WeThePeople: when you are in tty1
[02:36] <themindbenders> means cracking password by hit and trial method is known as bruteforce.
[02:36] <WeThePeople> daemonicapathy, it boots tty2 for some reason
[02:36] <WeThePeople> but i will try in a few mins
[02:36] <wilee-nilee> !nomodeset > JayRizzle grub is in a install by the way.
[02:36] <DaemonicApathy> WeThePeople: That's ok, from tty2 is ok.
[02:36] <Smackbook> is there a version of grep that returnns characters of context instead of lines?
[02:37] <wilee-nilee> !nomodeset > JayRizzle
[02:37] <WeThePeople> all right be back in a flash :)
[02:37] <JayRizzle> I mean, I an install it to a partition on my HDD, but when I boot into that partition, it will load the main desktop, without icons.
[02:37] <wilee-nilee> JayRizzle, YOu would only see grub on a installed ubuntu.
[02:37] <DaemonicApathy> Are there supposed to be icons?
[02:37] <JayRizzle> Then it says something about the finalizing the install, then it just freezes.
[02:38] <wilee-nilee> Unless you have a multiloaded usb or something custom
[02:38] <tonsofpcs> JayRizzle: I'm guessing you have a BIOS configuration that blocks installation
[02:38] <themindbenders> how to crack rar file passwords?
[02:39] <themindbenders> jayrizzle:no he has a os error.
[02:39] <blackshirt> themindbenders, its depend how strong the password
[02:39] <zykotick9> JayRizzle: can you use a terminal?  (ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a vt then alt+f7 to get back to xorg)  what is the output of "lspci | grep -i vga"?
[02:40] <themindbenders> blackshirt:thanx buddy for replying
[02:40] <themindbenders> can you tell me the one method
[02:41] <blackshirt> some methods available... Bruteforce was one of the,
[02:41] <vander> hi I booted my ubuntu box running 12.04v and usb mouse is not responding I restarted the machine and still nothing, can anyone assist
[02:41] <vander> or explain how to reaquire the mouse drivers
[02:41] <themindbenders> vander:go to grub and press e
[02:42] <Ben64> vander: don't need mouse drivers. try unplugging the mouse, plug it back in, and then pastebin the output of the command "dmesg"
[02:42] <themindbenders> and add i8042 before splash.
[02:42] <DaemonicApathy> vander, have you tried unplugging the receiver and plugging it back in? Does wonders for my headset.
[02:43] <JayRizzle> I install it fine.
[02:43] <JayRizzle> That's not the issue.
[02:43] <JayRizzle> I am trying to boot into it.
[02:43] <JayRizzle> When i boot into it, the main screen jst freezes
[02:43] <JayRizzle> It doesn't allow me to do anything,
[02:44] <themindbenders> jayrizzle:which version right now you are using?
[02:44] <wilee-nilee> JayRizzle, Did you see the bots message on nomodeset, and zykotick9, suggestion.
[02:45] <ring0> themindbenders, i just remember fcrackzip, apparently not for rars tho ;)
[02:46] <goddard> can i install gnome 3.6 in 12.04?
[02:46] <goddard> or will it be back ported?
[02:46] <ring0> themindbenders, maybe crark
[02:46] <themindbenders> goddard:ya u can
[02:47] <goddard> themindbenders: is there a way to test and see if my installed exstensions will be compatable?
[02:47] <nerd> can we say ubuntu server's are somewhat stable like debian ?
[02:47] <themindbenders> ring0:thanx buddy can u suggest me a tutorial i never used craak
[02:47] <cdarn> # Byobu will try to auto-detect them.
[02:47] <cdarn> #LOGO="\o/"
[02:47] <cdarn> #MONITORED_DISK=/
[02:47] <cdarn> #DISK_IO_THRESHOLD=50
[02:47] <cdarn> #MONITORED_INTERFACE=eth0
[02:47] <FloodBot1> cdarn: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:48] <goddard> nerd: ubuntu servers are very stable
[02:48] <ring0> themindbenders, i'd suggest the manual
[02:48] <nerd> goddard: can i make a live cd of the current installation of the current ubuntu system ?
[02:48] <themindbenders> ring0:waiting.
[02:49] <ring0> themindbenders, on what?
[02:49] <themindbenders> ring0:waiting for your link man.
[02:49] <goddard> nerd: no idea but maybe sounds to complicated to me
[02:49] <ring0> themindbenders, try google
[02:49] <goddard> nerd: ask ubuntu would probably know
[02:50] <blackshirt> nerd, thats possible
[02:50] <themindbenders> i tried suggest me by your end
[02:50] <|Anthony|> is Ctrl+Alt+Backspace disabled in ubuntu by default?
[02:50] <ring0> themindbenders, first google search result… http://crark.net/cRARk.html
[02:51] <Daekdroom> |Anthony|, yes
[02:51] <wilee-nilee> nerd, Check out  Remastersys there are several others methods I believe.
[02:51] <themindbenders> ring0:let me check
[02:51] <nerd> cool, :)
[02:51] <|Anthony|> that's what i thought. thanks for confirming Daekdroom
[02:52] <themindbenders> ring0: i am sending you a request ok add me now
[02:52] <JayRizzle> I looked at the suggestions, but it's not a BLACK SCREEN.
[02:52] <JayRizzle> It's more like a frozen screen.
[02:52] <wilee-nilee> nerd, There are cloning methods as well for network distribution like clonezilla, be aware of driver issues in all of this though.
[02:54] <nerd> wilee-nilee: that's nice thing to know. :)
[02:54] <DaemonicApathy> Is it possible to include Esc in a keyboard shortcut? So far, I've had no luck with compiz or Ubuntu custom shortcuts including it.
[02:55] <cowsquad> how to check how many cores are in my cpu and how many threads per core in ubuntu?
[02:55] <wilee-nilee> JayRizzle, I would try the nomodeset at the ubuntu grub and see if it works, don't overthink what might work to get you in.
[02:56] <zykotick9> cowsquad: "dmesg | grep -i cpu" should show SOME of that.
[02:56] <wilee-nilee> Or try ubuntu 2d at the login
[02:56] <zykotick9> cowsquad: see "cat /proc/cpuinfo" for more info
[02:59] <ring0> themindbenders, what are you talking about?
[02:59] <cowsquad> zykotick9, I know I have a dual core, which equal 2 cores right? how do I know how many thread per core?
[03:00] <Nautilus> could I get a little help with symlinking?  I have a file named drush in a folder named /home/brian/drush which I want to symlink from /local/bin ...  I don't think this is exactly right: sudo ln -s /home/brian/drush /local/bin
[03:00] <skpl^> hi i just installed burg using super-boot-manager and now i cant get into my system, it wants to boot in low-graphics mode can someone help me
[03:00] <zykotick9> cowsquad: check "/cat /proc/cpuinfo" how many cpus does it show?
[03:01] <DaemonicApathy> Nautilus: I don't know much about symlinking, but shouldn't that be /local/bin/ ?
[03:01] <ring0> Nautilus, cd /local/bin/ ; sudo ln -s /home/brian/drush
[03:02] <cowsquad>  cpu cores 2, cpu family 6. cpus not info about that
[03:02] <Nautilus> oh huh, I don't have a /local
[03:02] <zykotick9> cowsquad: i only have dual cores so i see a processor 0 and 1 that's it.
[03:03] <Nautilus> going off my 10.04 notes, have 12.04 now
[03:03] <skpl^> hi i just installed burg using super-boot-manager and now i cant get into my system, it wants to boot in low-graphics mode can someone help me
[03:03] <DaemonicApathy> zykotick9: I believe the number of logical cores is listed as "siblings", no?
[03:03] <ring0> Nautilus, you propably mean /usr/local/bin
[03:03] <Nautilus> ring0: ohhh thats why I indented the second line in my notes ;)
[03:04] <cowsquad> i see the same thing
[03:04] <SparkyFlary> if my computer has a firewall that prevents being ping to, and someone wants to attack me at full power with pings of death, will my router and or modem bust?
[03:04] <ring0> Nautilus, link working?
[03:05] <Nautilus> ring0: darn, nope
[03:05] <Nautilus> can I list my ln's?
[03:06] <ClientAlive> my graphics drivers are wacked! I don't have 3D so all the other cool stuff I might want is not there. Can someone help? I have and nvidia card and when I try to install the closed source driver through Additional Drivers - it fails installation (or so it says). What do I do?
[03:06] <Vagabundo> Can someone tell me how to locate java runtime?
[03:06] <zykotick9> ClientAlive: "lscpi | grep -i vga"
[03:06] <IboS> ClientAlive: you could check on nvidia's website wether they distribute drivers for linux
[03:06] <ClientAlive> Output of lspci | grep VGA:  VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 440] (rev a1):
[03:07] <ring0> Nautilus, you could all links on your system with find. but you probably don't want that. if you just want to verify the link you just created in /usr/local/bin, try ls -l /usr/local/bin/
[03:07] <ClientAlive> sorry, no colon on the end
[03:07] <DaemonicApathy> cowsquad, in the System Monitor, under System, how does it list the processor?
[03:07] <SparkyFlary> does ubuntu-server come secure enough to prevent DOS attacks on it when it's a webserver?
[03:07] <Nautilus> ring0: correct, thats what I wanted.  :)     lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Sep 28 23:04 drush -> /home/brian/drush
[03:08] <goddard> SparkyFlary: ubuntu is intended as a plateform and that plateform with certain applications act as a web server but ubunt/linux isn't the server
[03:08] <Nautilus> ring0: maybe /home/brian/drush/drush ?
[03:08] <ClientAlive> lbo5: I know they do but seems I read somewhere that the newest one screws ubuntu up. Was hoping to get more info about it/ if there's a way or a certain version to use...
[03:09] <ring0> Nautilus, so the link does point to the file you mentioned before. i don't know, where the file you want to link is located :)
[03:09] <SparkyFlary> so I have to modify the firewall rules myself?
[03:09] <goddard> SparkyFlary: firewall rules don't prevent DOS attacks unless you are trying to prevent traffic coming in on certain ports
[03:09] <Nautilus> ring0: the folder is /home/brian/drush, the executable is /home/brian/drush/drush
[03:09] <Vagabundo> Can someone tell me how to locate java runtime?
[03:10] <Ben64> !nvidia | ClientAlive
[03:10] <ClientAlive> lbo5: I wish to we could diagnose the reason why the install fails with Additional Drivers - it could be important.
[03:10] <goddard> SparkyFlary: you need another application that helps prevent that stuff
[03:10] <ClientAlive> ok
[03:10] <goddard> SparkyFlary: and it also depends on what your trying to block
[03:10] <ring0> Nautilus, then delete the link in /usr/local/bin/ and create a new one with the appropriate location
[03:10] <goddard> or prevent abuse
[03:10] <Ben64> ClientAlive: oh I didn't see that before, it fails? does it give an error?
[03:11] <SparkyFlary> I'm trying to block punks who want to refresh the page on my future website a million times per second.
[03:11] <ClientAlive> Ben64: There is a log file...  Should I paste it?
[03:11] <Ben64> ClientAlive: pastebin, not paste in here
[03:11] <cowsquad> daemonicApathy, I use the command lscpu and that show me the threads per core
[03:11] <ClientAlive> Ben64: yes, of couse. one moment
[03:11] <goddard> SparkyFlary: what web server are you using
[03:11] <Nautilus> ring0: thanks! all set
[03:12] <ring0> Nautilus, you're welcome
[03:12] <DaemonicApathy> cowsquad, ah, ok. :-)
[03:12] <Vagabundo> Can someone tell me how to locate java runtime?
[03:12] <SparkyFlary> jetty is what I'm thinking of using
[03:12] <zykotick9> Vagabundo: assuming "java" is an executable.  "which java"
[03:13] <SparkyFlary> and yeah it uses java
[03:13] <cowsquad> daemonicApathy. it show under system monitor as processor 1 and 0
[03:14] <DaemonicApathy> cowsquad. Fair enough. I was hoping it would be formatted similar to mine, and solve the issue handily. I learned lscpu from you. ;-)
[03:15] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: you're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist yet?
[03:16] <SparkyFlary> I just don't want to be hacked
[03:16] <SparkyFlary> and is it a good idea to use a firewall on my router?
[03:16] <ClientAlive> Ben64: jockey.log.1 (there exists a jockey.log but it is empty): http://paste.ubuntu.com/1248757/    It is enormous! Some things I not from it...  the last line of each paragraph in the beginning of the log. Line 1824 to end (roughly the last dozen lines).
[03:17] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: refreshing a page isn't hacking, and a firewall is a good idea in general
[03:17] <ClientAlive> Ben64: "...note from it..." <typo>
[03:17] <SparkyFlary> no but it's an attack
[03:17] <SparkyFlary> that I think can be prevented maybe..
[03:17] <|Anthony|> SparkyFlary, go check out pfsense
[03:18] <|Anthony|> SparkyFlary, if you're willing/able to have a dedicated firewall rig
[03:19] <Ben64> ClientAlive: you could try a nvidia driver ppa, but it is unsupported
[03:19] <skpl^> how can i stop my system from running in low graphics mode?
[03:20] <SparkyFlary> nah just found out DOS attacks are unavoidable
[03:21] <chris92> sparkyflary: they are - if you are using vpn's to connect to the internet
[03:22] <ClientAlive> Ben64: I just want to be sure if I use the right version driver. I heard that the latest one for my card screws up the system but I think that was about 6 mos ago it was written. There must be one version where 3D works and does not make system unstable.
[03:22] <chris92> SparkyFlary: you should try that possibly nobody gets your ip adress and avoid using vulnerable software like skype
[03:22] <mauryyyy> how can i use my laptop screen and an external screen at the same time, no a mirror, do i need an xorg.conf with a virtual resolution? i look and look and cant fine a solution without the possibility of braking my system
[03:22] <|Anthony|> SparkyFlary, blocking an ip from reaching your server will reduce the load on the server. the firewall will take the brunt of the attack. Which should allow your network more headroom to still serve the content. your isp should also be doing this on their end which would offload any of that potential burden to them
[03:22] <zykotick9> ClientAlive: i'd suggest a PPA over the nvidia.com driver ANY day!  it can be removed cleanly!
[03:23] <chris92> ClientAlive: which graphics card are you using, if I may ask?
[03:23] <Ben64> ClientAlive: I use the ppa here, but as I said, it's unsupported. And since you don't have a driver already, there might be additional steps to get it working. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates
[03:24] <ClientAlive> Ben64: ok. Thx.
[03:25] <zykotick9> ClientAlive: x-swat, ya try that.  i don't recommend using PPA ever, but i would to you right now.  ppa make your system unstable IMO, but i bet that x-swat ppa will support your card better.  best of luck.
[03:25] <trigger_kill> Minor issue, the printer icon is showing up in the task bar, even though nothing is printing. How do I get rid of it?
[03:25] <Ben64> much more recent version compared to ubuntu's
[03:25] <zykotick9> Ben64: +1
[03:26] <ClientAlive> zykotick9: right on.
[03:26] <Ben64> 295.40 on 12.04, 304.51 on x-swat
[03:28] <chris92> ben64: would you recommend the x-swat drivers over the 12.04.1 ones?
[03:30] <chris92> ben64: i mean, my gtx 460 runs with the 295.40
[03:30] <Ben64> chris92: depends. if you game a lot it might help
[03:30] <trism> we also have nvidia-experimental-304 in -proposed
[03:31] <zykotick9> ClientAlive: see trism above!
[03:31] <Ben64> but if you enable proposed, don't you get every proposed upgrade?
[03:31] <SparkyFlary> how fast of internet do I need to make a home webserver ?
[03:31] <zykotick9> Ben64:
[03:32] <zykotick9> Ben64: +1 doh
[03:32] <chris92> ben64: what gaming can u do on linux anyways ^^
[03:32] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: depends what you want to do with it
[03:32] <trism> Ben64: not if you pin them but it should be moving to -updates soon (and I see your point)
[03:32] <Ben64> chris92: I do a lot, and soon more with Steam on Linux :D
[03:32] <SparkyFlary> let's say 100,000 people a day
[03:32] <ch33z> my tits hurt
[03:32] <ch33z> :(
[03:32] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: 100mbit
[03:32] <chris92> ben64: well, yea, really looking forward to steam on linux
[03:32] <SparkyFlary> can a home DSL work or do i need better?
[03:33] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: you need much better
[03:33] <SparkyFlary> what about 10,000 people per day.?
[03:33] <chris92> SparkyFlary: I would recommend using a website hoster...
[03:33] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: what chris92 said
[03:33] <SparkyFlary> I don't want to pay
[03:33] <Ben64> home hosting isn't very professional
[03:34] <chris92> sparkyflary: there are free hosters available
[03:34] <SparkyFlary> yeah but those guys limit me a lot
[03:34] <chris92> sparkyflary: most of them dont even put adds on your website, and you even can put a domain on them
[03:34] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: what are you trying to host
[03:34] <ClientAlive> Ben64: Does the 3D rendering supposed to automatically be on? (Do I have to change a setting or something to enable it)?
[03:34] <SparkyFlary> with homesever I am as free as a bird
[03:35] <SparkyFlary> I want to make a video streaming site
[03:35] <Ben64> SparkyFlary: you'd still be limited by your ISP's rules
[03:35] <chris92> sparkyflary: if you really think you get 10k to 100k you could easily put adds on the site
[03:35] <ch33z> SparkyFlary good luck go google it
[03:35] <Ben64> ClientAlive: when the driver is active, yes
[03:35] <SparkyFlary> uh nevermind i meant 1000
[03:35] <Ben64> dsl doesn't have the bandwidth to stream video
[03:36] <SparkyFlary> uh what about static pages?
[03:36] <Ben64> well yeah that'd work,
[03:36] <chris92> sparkyflary: especially if you want to make a video streaming site, you need at least 2mbits of upload for ONE user to watch a 720p video
[03:36] <SparkyFlary> for 1000 people a day?
[03:36] <Ben64> it might be laggy, but it would work
[03:36] <SparkyFlary> yea scratch that video idea
[03:37] <chris92> SparkyFlary: depends on how many users try to access the site at the same time
[03:37] <SparkyFlary> aw man
[03:37] <SparkyFlary> let's say 20
[03:37] <Ben64> you should really get a webhost though. If you need one, I do some hosting on the side.
[03:37] <SparkyFlary> I want to do this for learning purpose
[03:38] <chris92> if you just want to learn how to code HTML and PHP, I'd suppose using LAMP
[03:38] <SparkyFlary> nah I'm using a cms
[03:38] <chris92> same thing
[03:39] <chris92> apache2, mysql and php5
[03:39] <chris92> should be all you need
[03:39] <Ben64> you forgot the L :P
[03:39] <chris92> huh?
[03:40] <Ben64> LAMP
[03:40] <chris92> umm... what was it
[03:40] <Ben64> Linux
[03:40] <chris92> oh
[03:40] <chris92> yea
[03:40] <chris92> :D
[03:40] <JayRizzle> I'm back again. I am using the live cd now. What's the command to change the nvidea setting thing again?
[03:41] <SparkyFlary> alright time to get to work then
[03:41] <chris92> nvidia-settings to open the nvidia settings center?
[03:41] <SparkyFlary> tnx for the helps
[03:42] <chris92> Ben64: I suppose he has some linux, as he is in the ubuntu channel obviously :P
[03:43] <Ben64> chris92: yeah i was just messing with you
[03:43] <chris92> ben64: yea I was like "what did I forget" :D
[03:47] <JayRizzle> Whats the button on a live cd to open up the options?
[03:49] <chris92> JayRizzle: which options do you want to open?
[03:50] <Smackbook> is there any linux tool that could help me extract binary blobs from xml files?  before I go reinvent the wheel writing a custom program to do this one thing?
[03:50] <Ben64> Smackbook: some combination of grep, awk, and sed?
[03:51] <Smackbook> but awk and sed only work on non-binary i think
[03:51] <Smackbook> well this is a mixed file
[03:51] <Smackbook> but the binary part is binary ;)
[03:51] <cksid> hey guys. What is the main ubuntu repository? I have tried googling but I can't find a list of exact addresses.
[03:52] <Smackbook> its where software comes from
[03:52] <cksid> i want the link
[03:52] <Smackbook> oh
[03:52] <Smackbook> 1s
[03:52] <cksid> i know what is IS, I need an address
[03:52] <cksid> lol
[03:52] <cksid> sorry
[03:52] <Smackbook> well you know it differs by distro
[03:53] <cksid> I know
[03:53] <cksid> I know what im doing. I just forgot the url
[03:53] <Ben64> Smackbook: is it base 64
[03:53] <cksid> I have to configure this one distro so i can safetly impliment some modifications on my ubuntu for my laptop haha
[03:53] <cksid> no
[03:53] <cksid> oh
[03:54] <cksid> not me
[03:54] <cksid> sorry
[03:54] <FloodBot1> cksid: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:54] <cksid> Alright, I wont.
[03:54] <chris92> cksid: probably http://archive.ubuntu.com
[03:55] <cksid> chris92: thanks, ill try that
[03:55] <Smackbook> cksid: also see a list of sources at /etc/apt/sources.list (i know this probably isn't what you wanted)
[03:55] <JayRizzle> s.
[03:56] <JayRizzle> I am looking for the option to change the nvidea settings.
[03:56] <JayRizzle> I forgot the term they used, but I know i had to toggle it before it booted.
[03:56] <chris92> JayRizzle: nvidia-settings
[03:56] <cksid> Smackbook: that works perfectly, thanks.
[03:57] <JayRizzle> No, i mean it's like.. how do i get to the boot options before the live cd starts?
[03:57] <chris92> ahh.. umm, its been quite a while  since I used a live cd
[03:59] <chris92> you should be able to read it once you boot from the live cd normally
[03:59] <chris92> arent there some options before the live environment starts?
[04:00] <morroc> so i am trying to fsck a memory drive. As soon as I plug it in my laptop memory card reader it open window manager showing the contents of the mem card. now if find the mount point using sudo fdisk -l and try to run the fsck command appropriately then it gives me warning that it might create errors. now if i unmount the mem card then what /dev/<somethin> or device i run my fsck command on ?
[04:01] <JayRizzle> i couldnt find it :(
[04:01] <morroc> basically need a way to find the path, etc of a unmounted device
[04:02] <chris92> JayRizzle: I'm not quite sure if there still are any preboot options on livecds
[04:02] <chris92> JayRizzle: but I cant tell for sure
[04:02] <chris92> JayRizzle: why do you need them so urgently?
[04:02] <rob_p> morroc: An easy way is to do, "df -h" while it's still mounted and take note of the device node...
[04:03] <morroc> rob_p : fixed it by using the umount command
[04:03] <rob_p> morroc: k
[04:03] <morroc> so clicking the eject button in the filemanager is not the same as using the umount command
[04:04] <wilee-nilee> JayRizzle If you are trying ti change the nvidia settings in the install you would have to chroot in from the cd to do this.
[04:04] <wilee-nilee> to*
[04:04] <morroc> thanks rob_p
[04:04] <rob_p> morroc: The end result is the same, but how it's accomplished is probably a bit different...
[04:04] <rob_p> morroc: welcome
[04:06] <JayRizzle> Wait, i got it!'
[04:06] <JayRizzle> But here's the thing.
[04:06] <JayRizzle> if I install it, how will I make the drivers for the graphics work?
[04:07] <chris92> JayRizzle: you can activate the proprietary driver after the instalö
[04:07] <chris92> *install
[04:08] <DaemonicApathy> There's usually a notification for that in the upper right, as soon as installation is complete.
[04:08] <chris92> JayRizzle: The icon looks like a graphics  card with a lock in front of it
[04:09] <chris92> JayRizzle: as DaemonicApathy said, its in the upper right corner, in the notification area, once you boot the finished installation
[04:09] <ClientAlive> Ben64: I decided to try the repo route to install the driver. I found something on ask ubuntu where the guy talks about deleting a few files after rebooting (apparently it will reboot into a tty). Then delete files and reboot. Anyhow, when I did the driver install I notice some output. Do you know what it means?  http://pastebin.com/NSZNgMka
[04:11] <ClientAlive> Ben64: This is the ask ubuntu article: http://askubuntu.com/questions/142672/just-installed-ubuntu-12-04-when-booting-all-i-get-is-a-black-screen-with-curs    (first answer after the original post)
[04:11] <ClientAlive> what do you think?
[04:11] <chris92> ClientAlive: it seems like the installer is checking for driver modules in the kernel and doesnt find any, thats how I interpret it
[04:12] <ClientAlive> chris92: That's how I interpret it too. What I wonder is if that is a problem. If I need to address that module issue and see if I need to install it or something. What do you think?
[04:12] <chris92> ClientAlive: im not sure, but it could be just a simple check if there are some older drivers installed
[04:12] <gnomefreak> win 0
[04:12] <gnomefreak> damn
[04:13] <ClientAlive> chris92: Oh. Then a "module" is just the driver itself? I thought it was something separate from the driver.
[04:13] <chris92> ClientAlive: "- Installing to /lib/modules/3.2.0-23-generic/updates/dkms/" seems like its installing the module on its own - dont think you have to worry
[04:13] <ClientAlive> chris92: I see. thx
[04:14] <ClientAlive> well, ere goes nothing   :)
[04:16] <durando> i just got a samsung rv515 notebook and cannot seem to get the touchpad working with ubuntu 12.04.  the touchpaf is barely reponsive when i try to navigate sround the screen and is unusable
[04:20] <ClientAlive> my driver It installed and rebooting went fine, still have a graphical environment to go into, but it doesn't look like 3D rendering is working yet. Idk how to interpret glxinfo to tell if it is or isn't. Does someone know how to read glxinfo?
[04:20] <chris92> what graphics card are you using, clientalive?
[04:21] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: glxinfo | grep -i "direct render"
[04:22] <ClientAlive> There is a line very near the top that says "direct rendering: Yes"  Is that it?
[04:22] <arijit> !tab
[04:23] <ClientAlive> NiteRain:
[04:23] <NiteRain> trying to compile a program, and I am getting an "undefined reference to 'forkptk'  however libutil is installed
[04:24] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: what is your opengl using?
[04:24] <NiteRain> take off the direct from the previous statement
[04:25] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: will do, but, what is opengl?
[04:25] <NiteRain> it is a graphics library
[04:25] <chris92> durando: I think I found sth regarding your issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1788155
[04:26] <ClientAlive> chris92: it is an gt 440 (nvidia)
[04:26] <ClientAlive> chris92: evga gt 440
[04:27] <chris92> ClientAlive: so one of the "newer" ones being over a year old already, hm
[04:28] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: output of glxinfo | grep -i "render": http://paste.ubuntu.com/1248839/
[04:28] <NiteRain> Cool you are using your card
[04:28] <ClientAlive> chris92: I'm not surprised - I was shooting for middle-of-the-road
[04:29] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: ok. Well is it using 3D rendering then?
[04:30] <NiteRain> Thos two lines say you are using your card
[04:30] <NiteRain> which is good for 3d acceleration
[04:30] <NiteRain> if you were using software, it would have said Software Rasterizer
[04:31] <chris92> clientalive: are you using pure ubuntu?
[04:31] <NiteRain> the first line tells you that 3D rendering is handled, and it is not handled by X
[04:32] <chris92> if so, please paste the output of "/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p"
[04:32] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: Oookk. Now here is the thing. The reason I was tyring to make sure of that is because my gnome 3 is really screwed up. When I talked to the guys on #gnome yesterday, someone told me it's because my gnome is in "fallback mode" and that it does that when there is no 3D. So now I'm hearing that 3D is ok, but I'm seeing that gnome has not changed. Not sure what to do.
[04:33] <ClientAlive> chris92: This is ubuntu server 12.04 then installed gnome 3 (I thought it was gnome 3 but maybe that why it not having all the thnigs it's supposed to).
[04:33] <NiteRain> ClientAlive: yeah, sounds like the issue I was having on Gentoo
[04:34] <chris92> ClientAlive: ahh okay
[04:34] <durando> hey chris92 thanks ill read a bit see if i can get it going for now using a mouse ugh
[04:34] <ClientAlive> NiteRain: hmm...
[04:35] <ClientAlive> should I go back to #gnome you think?
[04:35] <chris92> durando: it seems like the fix should've already been merged with the kernel tho :/
[04:35] <chris92> ClientAlive: which gnome 3 version are you trying to use?
[04:37] <ClientAlive> chris92: I'm not even sure if it is versoin 3. I installed it from the ubuntu repos (I think). When the computer starts up though I see a Debian screen for the grub screen/ boot menu.
[04:37] <chris92> ClientAlive: that seems... strange
[04:37] <ClientAlive> I thougt so too
[04:37] <chris92> ClientAlive: is that the same you installed? http://apt.ubuntu.com/p/gnome
[04:37] <chris92> ClientAlive: it should open the Ubuntu Software Center
[04:38] <ClientAlive> chris92: I had added this repository that was supposed to have the "good gnome" the did a sudo apt-get install... but not sure where gnome really came from.
[04:39] <ClientAlive> chris92: I don't think I have software center (been using synaptic)
[04:39] <Avinash> hello there ..
[04:39] <chris92> hello avinash =)
[04:40] <chris92> ClientAlive: oh okay.
[04:40] <Avinash> Hi chris .. How are you
[04:40] <chris92> Avinash: fine, but this is not the right place for smalltalk =)
[04:40] <ClientAlive> chris92: browser reports that the address isn't understood
[04:41] <Avinash> yah .. I'm just trying to start to a friendly conversation regarding the installation of Ubuntu ...
[04:41] <chris92> ClientAlive: thought so, it was supposed to open the Ubuntu Software Center, which probably isnt installed, because you started with ubuntu server
[04:41] <chris92> Avinash: ahh okay =) How can I help you with your installation?
[04:42] <Avinash> I'm getting an Error after installing the ubuntu 12.04
[04:42] <Avinash> It shows me Grub error ..
[04:42] <ClientAlive> chris92: oh. Well if I removed gnome then installed it again through synaptic woudld it hurt the system? I mean to have a time where you remove the de altogether like that?
[04:42] <Avinash> I lost all my data  .. sadly
[04:42] <chris92> avinash: which grub error did you get?
[04:43] <jhonnyboy> hey all, trying to restart my networking interfaces thru terminal. Tried using /etc/init.d/networking restart however it just seems to freeze and doesn't do anything…so does stop. Any other ideas?
[04:43] <Avinash> I exactly don't remember .. but it shows me during the system boot up
[04:43] <chris92> jhonnyboy: that command is deprecated. rather use "sudo services network-manager restart"
[04:43] <Avinash> I lost my windows Xp which is on the same partion of harddrive
[04:44] <crimsonmane> jhonnyboy: "ifconfig wan0 up"
[04:44] <jhonnyboy> chris92: Thanks! tried that but still nothing, terminal just blinks after i enter the command like it's not responding
[04:44] <ClientAlive> chris92: output of dpkg -l | gnome has a line in it that reads - "ii  gnome                                  1:3.0+6ubuntu3                          The GNOME Desktop Environment, with extra components"  Does that tell anything about whether it's gnome 3 or some earlier version? Whether it's gnome from the ubuntu repositories of some other place?
[04:45] <chris92> 3.0+6ubuntu3
[04:45] <chris92> look at the first part ;)
[04:45] <ClientAlive> ok
[04:45] <chris92> its definitely gnome 3.0
[04:45] <cfhowlett> Avinash: "lost xp"?
[04:46] <Avinash> yes ..
[04:46] <ClientAlive> I wonder if I can remove it then try to install gnome from a different repo (maybe a better gnome or something)
[04:46] <chris92> Avinash: you shouldn't install ubuntu on the same partition as windows, because you have to format your partition in order to install ubuntu anyways
[04:47] <Avinash> can you please provide me the link to other distros ..
[04:47] <chris92> ClientAlive: I think removing gnome would give you a pure ubuntu-server again
[04:47] <jhonnyboy> chris92: seems to be gnome 2.0
[04:47] <cfhowlett> chris92: ???  MOST dual booters install windows/ubuntu side by side
[04:47] <jhonnyboy> I see libgnome-2.0
[04:47] <chris92> cfhowlett: yea, but not on the exact same partition
[04:47] <chris92> cfhowlett: that is not possible
[04:48] <cfhowlett> chris92: ah.  missed the partitioning part.
[04:48] <chris92> cfhowlett: np
[04:48] <Avinash> @chris : I installed ubuntu using wubi.exe .. since I got no space in my other partions .. I need to install in the same partion where Xp is resided
[04:49] <chris92> Avinash: doesnt wubi partition your hard drive?
[04:49] <crimsonmane> wubi does not partition your drive because it installs ubuntu as a program instead of an OS
[04:49] <chris92> crimsonmane: ahh okay
[04:50] <cfhowlett> Avinash: I'd almost suspect your xp is still present.  Do you mean it doesn't appear on the grub menu when you boot?
[04:50] <Avinash> no ..
[04:50] <chris92> Avinash: you should be able to access your windows xp when you have a windows install cd
[04:50] <Avinash> ah .. no ..
[04:50] <chris92> cfhowlett: he gets a grub error upon booting
[04:50] <cfhowlett> Avinash: by the way, wubi is a TESTING platform NOT a permanent installation solution.  So sayeth wubi development team.  Consider dual booting or virtualization
[04:51] <Avinash> after rebooting the PC .. what I can see a black screen with grub error .. that's all no boot menu
[04:51] <Avinash> is displayed
[04:52] <chris92> Avinash: don't panic, there is a way to access your windows xp
[04:52] <Avinash> sorry for my poor english .. it's not my mother tongue
[04:52] <chris92> Avinash: you just need a windows xp disc, do you have one?
[04:52] <Avinash> yep
[04:53] <chris92> Avinash: there should be an option called "recovery console" or sth similar
[04:53] <Avinash> ok ..
[04:53] <chris92> Avinash: in that recovery console, use the command "fixmbr"
[04:53] <Avinash> but How do I get into ubuntu
[04:53] <Avinash> I mean I want use Ubuntu
[04:54] <Nsmurf> You could make a Live CD to test it out.
[04:54] <chris92> Avinash: can you tell us the exact "grub error" you are getting?
[04:54] <chris92> Avinash: that would help a lot
[04:54] <Avinash> ok. .. please give me a moment
[04:54] <hmmwhatsthisdo> couldn't you use a live cd to reinstall GRUB to /dev/sda or whichever disk it's installed on?
[04:54] <ledah> hello.. i have a grub error
[04:55] <wilee-nilee> I would have Avinash run the bootscript, this has a bit of conjecture with the info given, before advising.
[04:55] <ledah> and i can't restore the windows one
[04:55] <wilee-nilee> ledah, Do you have a live ubuntu cd?
[04:56] <ledah> a kubuntu one and a supergrub one
[04:56] <wilee-nilee> ledah, Can you give some info leading up to this IE is there a ubuntu install as of now on the disc, and what is your goal here.
[04:56] <wilee-nilee> !pm > Avinash
[04:57] <wilee-nilee> Avinash, PLease use the channel all our help is best. ;)
[04:57] <ledah> i just reinstalled kubuntu and the grub jumped at grub rescue
[04:58] <ledah> i have win 7 in the other partition
[04:58] <wilee-nilee> ledah, so you want the kubuntu, is it that you want the windows bootloader to use with say easybcd to boot with?
[04:59] <johndoeeee> I booted ubuntu from a serpeate partition and it just freezes on the splashscreen. What do I do?
[05:00] <wilee-nilee> johndoeeee, Fresh install?  what is the background here?
[05:00] <ledah> okay.. somehow i can enter with the supergrub to kubuntu... but the grub is still damaged
[05:01] <johndoeeee> i installed onto a fresh partition, windows on the same partition.
[05:01] <hmmwhatsthisdo> wilee-nilee: got BURG installed! Though, how do I check how groups look in the emu?
[05:01] <wilee-nilee> ledah, Have you ran sudo update-grub in kubuntu or is it ksudo I'm not sure?  Have you modified grub as well?
[05:01] <johndoeeee> when i booted using the boot loader, i got to the ubuntu splash screen
[05:01] <johndoeeee> then, it just freezes.
[05:01] <johndoeeee> i can't log in, click or anyting,
[05:01] <hmmwhatsthisdo> F activates folded mode, but I can't seem to open the folded menus
[05:01] <wilee-nilee> hmmwhatsthisdo, Not sure what emu means
[05:02] <hmmwhatsthisdo> emulator
[05:02] <hmmwhatsthisdo> burg-emu
[05:02] <chris92> johndoeeee: how long is it stuck already?
[05:02] <johndoeeee> It just stays stuck on the splashcreen forever.
[05:03] <wilee-nilee> hmmwhatsthisdo, I use a different install of burg that loads the images and just boots with a choice I don't have the emulator installed so I can't really help with that.
[05:03] <ledah> it does matter that i left the boot in sd7 while root is on sda5?
[05:03] <hmmwhatsthisdo> wilee-nilee: do you use folded mode?
[05:03] <ledah> i cannot access.. says there is no space
[05:04] <Avinash> @chris .. I decided to install a fresh copy of ubuntu on my pc along with xp ..
[05:04] <wilee-nilee> hmmwhatsthisdo, no, I have it installed via using burg in a multiload usb loader, it is in the OS where grub is so can be used to boot the OS.
[05:04] <chris92> avinash: okay, does it work?
[05:05] <hmmwhatsthisdo> I meant as in like kernels (all ubuntu's stuff, all Windows' stuff, etc.) are grouped
[05:05] <cfhowlett> Avinash: in wubi...
[05:05] <wilee-nilee> johndoeeee, YOu can't install windows and ubuntu on the same partition unless you use wubi is this the case, and you get a black screen from the ubuntu choice in the MS boot?
[05:05] <Avinash> @chris .. yet to install .. what am I trying to say is .. I really don't the grub part in ubuntu ..
[05:05] <Avinash> I really pissed me off .. :)
[05:06] <Avinash> *I really don't understand the grub part in ubuntu ..*
[05:07] <chris92> Avinash: grub is basically the boot loader. its just a piece of software where you can decide what you want to boot
[05:07] <abgeek> how to enable vgaswitcher on ubuntu
[05:07] <Avinash> ok ..
[05:07] <chris92> Avinash: it is necessary if you dual-boot with windows.
[05:08] <wilee-nilee> hmmwhatsthisdo, If you give me the link to your burg install I can take a look to see if I maybe understand whats up.
[05:08] <ledah> how much i should leave for root?

[05:14] <vicatcu> chris92: did I not ask the question in the channel?
[05:15] <chris92> sorry, my bad, ignore the text ^^
[05:15] <chris92> just look at the private message I sent you
[05:16] <chris92> vicatcu: I can just post it here as well... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer - the "Configure tftpd-hpa" section could be useful for you
[05:16] <wilee-nilee> johndoeeee, I would be glad to help you, but we have to be on the same page.
[05:18] <andromedas> could anyone help me with ATI drivers?
[05:19] <chris92> anyone the ubottu command for ati? i really should mess around with him, i dont really know the commands :D
[05:19] <wilee-nilee> andromedas, The channel works as you lay out your problem in the form of a question. ;)
[05:20] <andromedas> Ok, so I have to use the fglrx-legacy driver, and I got it from the amd website and unzipped it and ran the installer, but it tells me that I dont have enough free space for the selected options (free space: 138 MB, estimated size: 238 MB)
[05:21] <codyps> andromedas: then free up some space?
[05:21] <andromedas> what am i doing wrong? I'm running the installer out of my /home/xxxx directory, and it has over 200 GB
[05:21] <hmmwhatsthisdo> wilee-nilee: do you know how to force BURG to use a certain resolution?
[05:21] <andromedas> all my partitions have at least 1 GB
[05:22] <codyps> andromedas: so `df -h` says they all have a bunch of space?
[05:22] <wilee-nilee> hmmwhatsthisdo, In my set up at the burg boot screen is a resolution choice with key press f3 I think otherwise a force no
[05:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> damnit. Mine only has 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 available
[05:23] <quazimodo> does 12.04 use iptables?
[05:23] <wilee-nilee> andromedas, Just for reference partitions should be no more then 70% full for optimal use.
[05:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> and on a 1366x768 that looks like crap
[05:23] <vooze> Is there a IRC channel for the ubuntu gnome remix ?
[05:23] <codyps> quazimodo: yes
[05:24] <quazimodo> codyps: service iptables foo does not work, is this to be expected?
[05:24] <andromedas> codyps: something doesn't look right about this http://i.imgur.com/LSHUF.png
[05:24] <andromedas> wilee-nilee: none of them are past 60% http://i.imgur.com/LSHUF.png
[05:24] <codyps> andromedas: '/' only has 138 MB.
[05:25] <andromedas> why are there two '/'?
[05:25] <codyps> andromedas: Which is why the installer is complaining.
[05:25] <codyps> andromedas: 'rootfs' is an alias.
[05:25] <codyps> you can ignore it (presently)
[05:25] <quazimodo> hrm
[05:26] <codyps> quazimodo: does not work how?
[05:26] <andromedas> so do I have to drop down to rc1, fsdisk and all that jazz?
[05:26] <quazimodo> codyps: am i to expect 12.04 to drop remote http requests then?
[05:26] <codyps> quazimodo: only if you've set it up to do so. I don't recall their being a default firewall.
[05:26] <andromedas> and just wondering, are things like drivers supposed to be installed in the / folder?
[05:26] <quazimodo> by default, as I cant get forwarded traffic to get to the machine on port 3000 (rails app), local network machines are fine
[05:26] <cfhowlett> quazimodo: firewall is NOT enabled by default
[05:27] <codyps> quazimodo: Try using 'wireshark' to see if you're getting data.
[05:27] <quazimodo> cfhowlett: thats what I thought. This forward is broken
[05:27] <cfhowlett> quazimodo: wish I could help, but it's over my head.  sorry.
[05:28] <quazimodo> no probs
[05:28] <cowslammer> can someone tell me where to get java these days?
[05:29] <codyps> quazimodo: what do you mean by "this forward"?
[05:29] <Ben64> cowslammer: software center
[05:29] <codyps> cowslammer: apt-get, same as always.
[05:29] <codyps> or that
[05:29] <codyps> ah, ubuntu.
[05:29] <vooze> cowslammer: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/09/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-jdk-in.html
[05:30] <AddisonE> Whenever I reboot ubuntu, the dev/null permissions are set to 600.  I don't know if something is overriding udev or if udev isn't running correctly in the first place. Does anyone know a way to debug this?
[05:31] <codyps> AddisonE: If you change them with chmod & then reboot, they go back to '600'?
[05:31] <AddisonE> Yeah.
[05:32] <pentagon> How do I download the source of packages?
[05:32] <codyps> AddisonE: can you pastebin the output of `mount`?
[05:33] <Ben64> AddisonE: can you paste the output of "ls -l /dev/null"
[05:34] <AddisonE> crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 Sep 29 00:14 null
[05:34] <AddisonE> codyps: http://pastebin.com/M3xb6c4W Is that what you're referring to?
[05:35] <codyps> AddisonE: yep.
[05:35] <folorn> hrm anyone who know's some about tar and how to use it mind answering a question: ?
[05:35] <Ben64> the dev line differs from mine
[05:35] <AddisonE> It seems to be the whole dev directory I believe. I've seen some error messages about dev/random not working.
[05:35] <Ben64> none on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,relatime) vs none on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
[05:36] <codyps> folorn: just ask.
[05:37] <folorn> well thats just it i want to extract the files from the .tar
[05:37] <folorn> but dunno how i keep getting a whole bunch of errors
[05:37] <codyps> AddisonE: my dev also shows 'mode=0755'. Perhaps if we can locate where it is set...
[05:37] <folorn> cody
[05:37] <codyps> folorn: pastebin the errors & the command you tried
[05:37] <folorn> lemme alright 1min be well ya about 2min thanks cody
[05:38] <AddisonE> Yeah that might be it. I'm a bit new to linux so what would be the best way to go about it?
[05:39] <codyps> AddisonE: could you pastebin the output of `ls -ld /dev/null`? (just checking up on 1 other thing)
[05:40] <AddisonE> crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 Sep 29 00:14 null
[05:40] <codyps> hrm.
[05:42] <codyps> AddisonE: can you look at /lib/init/fstab?
[05:43] <AddisonE>             0 0
[05:43] <AddisonE> none            /dev                      devtmpfs,tmpfs  mode=0755
[05:43] <AddisonE> Is that the line that would be needed, or would you like to see the whole thing?
[05:43] <folorn> dunno hmm i just simply wanna extract the tar file if its not damaged now from me screwing with it.
[05:43] <witakr> Hello folks
[05:44] <witakr> Does anyone know why gmail and google plus is soooooooo slooooow in chrome using Ubuntu?
[05:44] <chris92> hi witakr
[05:44] <codyps> folorn: What is the name of the file you are trying to extract?
[05:45] <wilee-nilee> witakr, Have you checked the memory or cpu use during this slow running access?
[05:46] <folorn> any ideas ?
[05:46] <witakr> wilee-nilee, No, I didn't give that a thought because I only experience the drag when using chrom to access those two sites.
[05:47] <wilee-nilee> witakr, you can run top, or install htop and run them from a terminal, that would be where I started.
[05:47] <chris92> folorn: tar -xvf FILENAME.tar
[05:47] <quazimodo> codyps: sory was analysing. It appears the router is port forwarding, my machine just isnt responding. Something somewhere on this computer is preventing it
[05:48] <witakr> wilee-nilee, okiedoke
[05:49] <folorn> ahh hrm chris92 and codyps
[05:49] <folorn> it wont extract it gives me a list of errors i got the errors again i went tar xf filename.tar and got this
[05:49] <folorn> vpasteing
[05:50] <Gillerire> hey all
[05:50] <chris92> hey Gillerire
[05:51] <Gillerire> I have just downloaded the Ubuntu iso
[05:51] <Gillerire> how to I make that onto a CD to install Ubuntu?
[05:51] <cfhowlett> Gillerire: congrats!
[05:51] <Gillerire> into*
[05:51] <Tigerboy> Hi
[05:51] <skai-falkorr> Gillerire: burn to cd?
[05:51] <Gillerire> haha, cheers cfhowlett
[05:51] <witakr> wilee-nilee, Welp... I'm seeing a jump in CPU to upto 57% and Memory upto 14% momentarily but it drops back down just as fast... this was when I loaded google plus
[05:52] <Gillerire> I'm on windows btw
[05:52] <Gillerire> just burn the iso onto a CD?
[05:52] <witakr> Gillerire, for shame!
[05:52] <cfhowlett> Gillerire: or create a boot USB
[05:52] <chris92> Gillerire: use imgburn or a similar program to burn the .iso image
[05:52] <wilee-nilee> witakr, Google plus is running a lot of script, use FF with ot when needed and block most with noscript, chrome has a java blocker as well.
[05:53] <Tigerboy> Gillerire: you can also consider using a USB drive to save a CDROM
[05:53] <wilee-nilee> I use*
[05:53] <Gillerire> witakr, I'm trying to change :)
[05:53] <quazimodo> codyps: you ran away?
[05:53] <Gillerire> yeh, I would Tigerboy but the comp I'm installing onto wont boot off USB
[05:53] <witakr> Gillerire, dON'T LIKE UBUNTU?
[05:53] <skai-falkorr> witakr: check chrome://gpu page.
[05:53] <codyps> quazimodo: temporary death
[05:53] <witakr> wilee-nilee, ok cool thanks
[05:53] <codyps> quazimodo: what did i miss?
[05:54] <witakr> skai-falkorr, ok
[05:54] <quazimodo> hrm
[05:54] <quazimodo> the requests get to this machine, but stuff originating outside the lan isnt being served
[05:54] <quazimodo> for some reason its dropping the packets, and I haven't a clue why
[05:54] <folorn> hmm this was the error i got when i tried tar xf and tar xvf  http://vpaste.net/gk6bk so what exactly am i doing wrong then?
[05:54] <wilee-nilee> witakr, I forget the name of the addon but it shows up if you search them with noscript, there are several
[05:54] <skai-falkorr> witakr: if there any red line on - you doin it wring^_^
[05:54] <skai-falkorr> *wrong
[05:55] <codyps> folorn: you don't have permissions to create a directory.
[05:55] <Tigerboy> Gillerire: ooo ok well double check the bios maybe you can change the boot order... sometimes only one of the USB ports will act as a boot and you must have the bootable in the port at the time you go to bios to change the boot order
[05:55] <Gillerire> Tigerboy: oh really!?
[05:56] <witakr> skai-falkorr, No red whatsoever
[05:56] <Gillerire> might try that first cause I already have Ubuntu on a USB
[05:56] <witakr> wilee-nilee, I'll check it out.. I'm sure I will be able to find what you mean
[05:56] <Tigerboy> Gillerire: yes else the USB won't appear as an option
[05:56] <cfhowlett> Gillerire: he's right.  I found that out on my Dell
[05:56] <codyps> quazimodo: Is the machine the gateway to the lan? ie: WAN <-> machine <-> lan, ie: it sits between?
[05:56] <wilee-nilee> Gillerire, There is also a out of the bios boot from choice you might look up the key press at powering on mine is f12.
[05:56] <skai-falkorr> Gillerire: some bios puts usb onto hdd boot order menu. try to look at hdd boot order
[05:56] <codyps> quazimodo: or does it possibly have more than 1 network interface?
[05:57] <Gillerire> I tried with the USB on the front, but I'll try with one on the back
[05:57] <Tigerboy> Many high end toshiba laptops will only boot from one of the usb ports and again must have the bootable inserted prior to going to bios to set the boot to the USB
[05:57] <skai-falkorr> witakr: no red or yellow? only green? so go to chrome://flags and turn on gpu compositing oin pages^_^ to relief your cpu
[05:58] <ledah> ok i reinstalled kubuntu and recovered the grub thx everyone for the help here
[05:58] <Tigerboy> most pcs in the past 5 years have usb boot as an option
[05:58] <Gillerire> this one is more that 5 years old :)
[05:59] <skai-falkorr> Gillerire: dont worry. i've booted 8 years old pc with 12.10 (with 256mb ram and usb 1.1) that was.... unpleasant
[06:00] <witakr> skai-falkorr, Yellow: Canvas: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable erated && CSS Animation: Software animated.
[06:00] <witakr> skai-falkorr, The rest is green
[06:00] <skai-falkorr> witakr: thats it
[06:00] <Tigerboy> Gillerire: nice ok well check this out: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/16822/boot-from-a-usb-drive-even-if-your-bios-wont-let-you/
[06:01] <skai-falkorr> witakr: go to chrome://flags and chose override software rendering list or something like it
[06:01] <skai-falkorr> Override software rendering list
[06:01] <skai-falkorr> witakr: then restart and check chrome://gpu
[06:01] <witakr> ok one sec
[06:01] <Gillerire> cheers guys
[06:02] <witakr> later windows user
[06:02] <Gillerire> I'm waiting for a HDD to finish formatting and then I'll give everything a go
[06:02] <witakr> lol
[06:03] <witakr> skai-falkorr, Ok now only CSS Animation is yellow
[06:04] <ledah> is possible to  make a program to output through the front jack and other from the back jack?
[06:04] <skai-falkorr> witakr: you can look at flags for css animations flags ^_^
[06:04] <skai-falkorr> ledah: yes
[06:05] <ledah> how so?
[06:10] <Tigerboy> ledah: yes as long as they are sep ports (places for data to go)
[06:10] <hannah_irina> hi, this is kernel in ubuntu : linux-image-3.2.0-31-generic-pae ?
[06:10] <Tigerboy> Ledah: it it is just to ways to hook the same sound stream it won't work
[06:11] <ledah> i want to make skype on the front jack (the headphones) and the rest on the back jack (the speakers)
[06:12] <Tigerboy> Ledah: most likely they are two things so should be possible if only you set it up right and skype allows it
[06:12] <samholmes> How can I find out why a job failed in upstart?
[06:14] <ledah> but how i do that?
[06:14] <Tigerboy> Ledah: test by using pulse volume control and turning everything off in the configuration tab but what you want to try and see if the same sound is coming from the front and back
[06:14] <witakr> skai-falkorr, Found "Enable accelerated CSS animations" and enabled it. That changed the CSS Animation to green and hardware accellerated but g+ is still painfully slow.
[06:14] <skai-falkorr> witakr: threaded compositing maybe?
[06:14] <Tigerboy> samholmes: you can check the logs for a start
[06:14] <ledah> yeah it recognize it as a single device
[06:15] <witakr> hmm
[06:15] <Tigerboy> Ledah: good then
[06:15] <Tigerboy> oh bad sorry
[06:15] <Tigerboy> Ledah: you mean front is same as back
[06:15] <samholmes> Tigerboy: I didn't know upstart had a log for each process. Where are they?
[06:16] <Tigerboy> ledah: elsewise try for a lovely USB phone
[06:17] <Alpha-Omega> is there any software for zooming if I was to want to browse from bed on my 22 inch monitor?
[06:17] <Nicekiwi> how do I remove entire destop enviroments very quickly? eg totally remove KDE and Gnome leaving only XFCE?
[06:17] <bazhang> !purexfce | Nicekiwi
[06:17] <DaemonicApathy> Alpha-Omega: Compiz and Ubuntu each have a few zoom options built in.
[06:17] <Tigerboy> Samholmes: try to add in a kernel option- --verbose
[06:18] <Alpha-Omega> DaemonicApathy: i'm on kde
[06:18] <skai-falkorr> Alpha-Omega: kwin have few zoom options too
[06:18] <Tigerboy> Xubuntu is not a bad system at all very stable overall
[06:19] <Alpha-Omega> skai-falkorr: but there's nothing really made specifically for browsing in bed or something right?
[06:19] <Tigerboy> Xubuntu also cohabitates well with compiz
[06:19] <cfhowlett> Tigerboy: Xubuntu is the platform for UbuntuStdudio
[06:19] <skai-falkorr> Alpha-Omega: you can use glasses
[06:20] <Tigerboy> Cfhowlett: yes they bailed out of gnome after the whole gnome 3 thing
[06:20] <cfhowlett> Tigerboy: yep.
[06:20] <Alpha-Omega> skai-falkorr: sudo apt-get install glasses? :P
[06:20] <puppy_parade> after a while, I cannot maximize totem.
[06:20] <puppy_parade> I have to reboot

[06:20] <Tigerboy> cfhowlett: you want stability with ubuntustudio---
[06:21] <prova21> I was typing a text on gedit
[06:21] <prova21> and it crashed before I had the opportunity to save
[06:21] <Nicekiwi> bazhang: that dosnt get rid of GNome though :(
[06:21] <bazhang> !enter | prova21
[06:22] <bazhang> Nicekiwi, you read the links and did the commands there?
[06:22] <prova21> Heyz! please help me..!
[06:22] <prova21> I was typing a text on gedit, and it crashed before I had the opportunity to save!
[06:22] <witakr> skai-falkorr, Well that also had no apparent effect
[06:22] <DaemonicApathy> What is the question, prova21?
[06:22] <skai-falkorr> witakr: and what gpu do you have?
[06:22] <Nicekiwi> bazhang: i looked at the links, none of them remove Gnome
[06:22] <bazhang> Nicekiwi, or you just removed the metapackage only
[06:22] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: Lol , I thought it wasn't difficult to get .. I need to recover that text
[06:23] <Tigerboy> I really sort of like Cinnamon of late though. Def worth checking out.
[06:23] <Nicekiwi> bazhang: commands*
[06:23] <bazhang> Nicekiwi, yes, it does
[06:23] <Nicekiwi> bazhang: unity is not GNome?
[06:23] <bazhang> Nicekiwi, it's a shell for gnome3, so yes' it's gnome
[06:24] <Nicekiwi> :/ ok..
[06:24] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: do you have autosaving enabled in gedit?
[06:24] <witakr> skai-falkorr, GeForce 8400GS/PCIe/SSE2
[06:25] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: It still has all its default settings
[06:25] <Tigerboy> unity is gtk3 a ubuntu branch of gnome 3 but not really
[06:25] <prova21> (ubuntu precise)
[06:25] <Tigerboy> Unity keeps improving though
[06:25] <bazhang> Tigerboy, please stop the editorializing
[06:26] <Tigerboy> What I'm answering a question
[06:26] <bazhang> Tigerboy, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[06:26] <Tigerboy> leave me alone
[06:26] <ledah> Tigerboy, the front and the back are from the same card, however in windows i could separate both jacks, and different things in one and the other eg; youtube on speakers and winamp on headphones
[06:26] <bazhang> Tigerboy, you are adding noise. please stop it
[06:26] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: It doesn't seem to ..
[06:26] <Tigerboy> It's not noise it's a response
[06:27] <Tigerboy> stop being so hostile
[06:27] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: You can check your home folder for a file with ~ in the title, if it was a new, unsaved document. Or check the directory with the document you were editing for the same, if you were. Otherwise, I don't see an option.
[06:27] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: Either way, I would suggest enabling that feature, for the future.
[06:29] <donald> wats the at sign?
[06:29] <DaemonicApathy> @
[06:29] <Guest9770> thanks, missing my "two" key
[06:30] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: uuuufff there's nothing :'(
[06:30] <DaemonicApathy> Guest9770, run 'charmap' in a terminal any time.
[06:30] <prova21> why didn't it that option enabled by default? :'(
[06:30] <prova21>  **hadn't
[06:30] <rob_p> prova21: Just curious what you did to cause it to crash in the first place?
[06:31] <DaemonicApathy> Probably to avoid taking up disk space without being expressly allowed to, prova21.
[06:31] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: Avoid taking up a couple of KiloBytes of space??????????? who cares
[06:31] <prova21> ufff
[06:31] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: Just a guess. I'm no developer. :-)
[06:32] <prova21> rob_p: Oh you're curious? I'm gonna tell you. That's a bug I think
[06:32] <rob_p> prova21: yup
[06:32] <donald_> so whos naked?
[06:32] <DaemonicApathy> This reminds me - would it be possible to type in two locations at once?
[06:33] <witakr> lol donald_
[06:33] <rob_p> prova21: ...that is, yup, I'm curious...
[06:33] <bazhang> !coc > donald_
[06:33] <bazhang> donald_, wrong channel, network
[06:33] <cfhowlett> donald_: nope.
[06:33] <donald_> wat?
[06:34] <bazhang> donald_, this is ubuntu support only, NOT chat
[06:34] <donald_> wat is this shit?
[06:34] <cfhowlett> !ops donald
[06:34] <prova21> That file was still unsaved. I got to ""File>Save"" and the usual window opened. When I found out that there already was a file with the name I wanted to save it, I went (with nautilus) to that directory and renamed it (when gedit's save window was still opened).    Exactly after the filename-change, gedit tried to update or do some of its stuff I don't know and it CRASHED
[06:34] <prova21> :'(
[06:34] <donald_> oh, i just saw chat and figured it was like, yea
[06:34] <nigweth> x_x
[06:34] <donald_> lol
[06:34] <bazhang> donald_, watch the language; chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:34] <donald_> it looks like chat?
[06:35] <prova21> ubuntu sucks, It had to have autosave enabled by default
[06:35] <donald_> how do i get there?
[06:35] <witakr> anyone know how to disable system messages in xchat? I cant find it
[06:35] <bazhang> witakr, join/quit?
[06:35] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: s/ubuntu/gedit
[06:35] <witakr> bazhang, yeah
[06:35] <bazhang> witakr, right click channel name
[06:35] <aLeSD_> hi there
[06:35] <prova21> DaemonicApathy: Well, Ubuntu should care of every part of its default system. Even with options
[06:35] <nigweth> donald_, try /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:36] <prova21> For what is useless, canonical always put his hands xD
[06:36] <rob_p> prova21: First, I'd try and reproduce the problem exactly as you did the first time.  If you can get it to consistently crash (or even once in a while), then you should file a bug!
[06:36] <quazimodo> codyps: sorry had to eat some chicken XD
[06:36] <witakr> bazhang, lol thanks
[06:36] <pentagon> usr13: How do I download the sources for a certain package ?
[06:36] <witakr> bazhang, the one thing I didnt try

[06:36] <prova21> rob_p: I'm so hungry that I don't wanna help that dev team
[06:36] <prova21> lol
[06:36] <prova21> *angry
[06:36] <prova21> LOL
[06:36] <quazimodo> ill see wbhat  the ugys in #unixhelp say on efnet
[06:37] <rob_p> prova21: Then cool down and eat something! :)
[06:37] <bazhang> prova21, file a bug. this is not the complaints/rant channel
[06:38] <frosty> its a good habit to save your document before you start writing. Its awfully easy hitting ctrl+s quite often later on to avoid these situations
[06:41] <prova21> a good system has to take all the user's habits on itself, so that the user find his working experience the most comfortable possible
[06:41] <prova21> frosty, ubuntu should have saved it for me ^
[06:41] <prova21> user musn't care of these things! you understand me? :)
[06:41] <DaemonicApathy> prova21: That kind of good system is best built by the user him/herself.

[06:42] <DaemonicApathy> Try Mint support?
[06:42] <bazhang> nigweth, ask mintsupport
[06:42] <nigweth> ok
[06:42] <bazhang> !mintsupport | nigweth
[06:42] <Ben64> nigweth: radeon 9200 is very old
[06:43] <indieross> so im compiling the new ffmpeg and im wondering if theres a benefit to using libx264 and libxvid for encoding
[06:43] <nigweth> Ben64, yup.. I even wanted to get jaunty on that pc so I could install any old proprietary drivers.. would that be a solution?
[06:44] <IdleOne> the solution is to seek support in the proper channel please
[06:44] <Ben64> nigweth: not very secure, you should upgrade your system
[06:45] <icenynexi> Hey guys, not sure if this is the right channel for this but I am trying to get certain ports open on a computer on my network (and I should be able to access those ports through a web browser) and even though I open the ports with iptables I can't access it through a web browser. http://pastebin.com/wwZpYEk1 shows the ports and they seem open. The port I am concerned about first is 8088. I
[06:45] <icenynexi> can access 8080 on my server and 10765 on my server but not 8088 and 5984. Why might this be?
[06:45] <prova21> nigweth: yeah, that's the only solution (if you wanna keep ubuntu distros). Cause the new xorg isn't compatible with all the old fglrx drivers anymore
[06:45] <icenynexi> when I say I cannot access those ports I mean from a browser on another computer within the same network
[06:46] <icenynexi> so im doing <IP_ADDRESS>:8088
[06:47] <nigweth> thanks prova21, I'll give it a try..
[06:47] <prova21> nigweth: You need an old linux kernel and xorg. And, if I was yourself, I would have compiled the kernel with all the drivers (fglrx too) to keep a monolithic and very-fast system
[06:47] <DaemonicApathy> icenynexi: I usually start somewhere like this: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
[06:48] <witakr> goog night folks... thanks bazhang && wilee-nilee  && skai-falkorr for your help tonight

[06:49] <julius_> hi
[06:50] <julius_> are there other packages besides lvm2 and the kernel modul dm-mod that are needed on a 12.04.1 live cd to see lvm volumes?
[06:50] <witakr|NiteNite> skai-falkorr, It's nearly 2am where I am
[06:50] <nigweth> prova21, I don't have any experience with kernel compilations, so it sounds too difficult for me.. I'll keep searching tho
[06:50] <witakr|NiteNite> an hour past my bedtime lol
[06:51] <prova21> nigweth: everyone had his first try :)
[06:51] <nigweth> prova21 lol thanks.. every encouragement helps

[07:04] <wilee-nilee> Newb101, I just opened FF and tried that key combo, to see if it worked the first time, you can move the tabs around by dragging I believe.
[07:04] <Blue1> wilee-nilee: yes -- works great.
[07:06] <Newb101> wilee-nilee, true in older versions you had the choice of opening up new links next to the current link, without having to drag?

[07:57] <joshmc> cfhowlett: Hearing that adobe is giving up on flash on our platform could be qualified as a fetish, sure ;)
[07:57] <cfhowlett> :)
[07:57] <STMelon_> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=JZEFT
[07:57] <STMelon_> NOTE: Adobe Flash Player 11.2 will be the last version to target Linux as a supported platform. Adobe will continue to provide security backports to Flash Player 11.2 for Linux.

[09:04] <kyubotsu> try that too.. lots of stuff to read for sure
[09:05] <pentagon> How do I pull sources?
[09:05] <pentagon> I forgot that is more of a server question.
[09:07] <pentagon> I want to compile everything from source after I get it all together.
[09:08] <Bry8Star> Pentagon, sorry, I will not be useful for you on that area, as I dont know a lot on that.
[09:09] <e66> I have attched a new LAN card to my pc. Now Ubuntu only recognizes the built in Intel LAN card. But not the Newly added Prolink LAN card
[09:09] <e66> how to can I activate both card so I can see them using ifconfig?
[09:09] <Bry8Star> Wait, and see if another user who understands your problem and have free time to help you now.
[09:09] <llutz_> pentagon: apt-get source <packagename> but you'd better not use a binary-distro like ubuntu if you want to compile all your stuff (whyever)
[09:11] <nydel> ehlo all
[09:12] <Bry8Star> E66, I'm not sure, but you will probably have to find first, what that Network Adpate is equivalent to in Ubuntu/Linux, then add that known driver via network-interface.

[09:13] <bizhanMona> HI I have an unusual question regarding ubuntu packaging. I have compile several open source packages and have installed them in a staging directory, i.e. STAGEDIR. So for example the binary file foo is installed in .../STAGEDIR/usr/local/bin/foo  I would like to make an ubuntu package from STAGEDIR and install them on the target system. For example the file  foo will be installed in /usr/local/bin/foo. I have read ubuntu packaging docume
[09:13] <bizhanMona> nts but I can not figure out how to do what I just explained? Thx
[09:13] <kyubotsu> e66: it should have 'just worked'. are you sure its sitting on the slot properly and that it is the correct slot for it
[09:13] <pentagon> llutz_: why not
[09:14] <pentagon> I am so sick of people telling me something is not a good idea without any reason.
[09:14] <e66> Bry8Star: when I execute 'dmesg | grep eth' I dont see more than 1 eth entry. I see only eth1
[09:14] <pentagon> Don't reinvent the wheel llutz_
[09:15] <e66> kyubotsu:  Yes. Its in correct slot. I have also attached a LAN cable with it. The other end of the cable is attached to another computer
[09:15] <llutz_> pentagon: but you do, use gentoo, lfs, slackware if you like your compiler that much. where do you see any benefits in compiling stuff on a binary-distro?
[09:15] <pentagon> e66: You either.
[09:15] <e66> I even see a green lite on the  LAN card after attching the cable
[09:16] <e66> s/attching/attaching
[09:16] <pentagon> llutz_: Don't worry I will not re-invent the wheel.
[09:16] <pentagon> llutz_: is there a drawback or do you just want to talk about other distros ?
[09:16] <pentagon> Or tell me im doing it all wrong with no reason.
[09:16] <llutz_> pentagon: still:where do you see any benefits in compiling stuff on a binary-distro?
[09:17] <pentagon> llutz_: whats the benifit of compiling at all llutz_ ??
[09:17] <pentagon> Read dwheeler mitigating trusting trust llutz_ .
[09:17] <e66> pentagon: ?
[09:17] <pentagon> There I gave you a citation.
[09:17] <bazhang> !ot | pentagon
[09:17] <pentagon> Now don't reinvent the wheel.
[09:18] <bazhang> pentagon, thats enough
[09:18] <llutz__> pentagon: sry got disconnected: still:where do you see any benefits in compiling stuff on a binary-distro?
[09:18] <bazhang> llutz__, lets move back to support please
[09:18] <MonkeyDust> llutz__  the discussion has come to an end
[09:18] <llutz__> bazhang: sry got disconnected, missed that
[09:19] <kyubotsu> e66: secondly, just running a cat5 between pc's won't do, you need a router hub
[09:20] <e66> kyubotsu: I know how to do it.
[09:20] <kyubotsu> e66: fair enough then
[09:21] <e66> kyubotsu: the question is not about how to connect to pcs. I asked why ubuntu is not recognising the card. I dont see any new eth device is created
[09:22] <kyubotsu> e66: does it work on fine on the other pc?
[09:22] <kyubotsu> this card
[09:22] <e66> Ohter pc is not matter here kyubotsu
[09:22] <Myrtti> kyubotsu: actually in theory it might work without a crossover cable, if either ethernet cards is smart enough
[09:22] <e66> I am not testing it in other pc
[09:22] <t4b_> I want to sync two huge folders with rsync which are each in another truecrypt container. I used ionice -c3 and renice +20 on all rsync and truecrypt processes. But Minecraft still lags while rsync runs. Can I do something else to improve this?
[09:22] <kyubotsu> Myrtti: indeed.. just saying
[09:23] <e66> I see the green led is lit. That means its properly connected to motherboard.
[09:23] <akshayv> When is Quantal coming?
[09:23] <kyubotsu> e66: then i'd look at the driver...
[09:24] <e66> kyubotsu: if the driver isnot found there would be some messages or logs. I dont see any messages or logs in `dmesg`
[09:25] <Myrtti> akshayv: last thursday of October, if I'm not mistaken
[09:25] <kyubotsu> e66: i don't think there'll be a command to bring it online in this case.. maybe someone else has a pertinent solution
[09:25] <e66> I just found that there are two mac addresses in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[09:25] <akshayv> Myrtti: thanks
[09:26] <e66> One is of my Intel card. Other is unknown. May be this one is the MAC of the new one
[09:26] <mongy> installing to a usb stick,(through a vm)  using encryption for / and I'm getting this while install.  not seen this before either real or vm install.  any clue?  http://i.imgur.com/P5wvR.png
[09:26] <Myrtti> akshayv: x.10 is last Thursday of October, x.04 is last Thursday of April
[09:27] <akshayv> ok
[09:27] <e66> seet this http://paste.ubuntu.com/1249130/
[09:28] <e66> eth1 is my Intel card
[09:33] <skai-falkorr> Myrtti: they must release 13.04 at 13 of april not 25
[09:34] <ANub> hello guys
[09:35] <madrebel> hello all
[09:35] <madrebel> having problem installing geforce 9500 driver in ubuntu
[09:35] <e66> in 13.04, 13 is year.
[09:35] <madrebel> what to do
[09:35] <ANub> ive a problem.......if i mount ntfs file system in ubuntu i cant change the file permissions even if i'm the mount user...
[09:36] <llutz_> ANub: because ntfs is not a unix-filesystem and cannot sue unix-permissions
[09:36] <llutz_> !ntfs  | ANub
[09:36] <madrebel> LOL sue
[09:36] <skai-falkorr> e66: so? 10.10 was released at 10/10/10
[09:36] <madrebel> having problem installing geforce 9500 driver in ubuntu
[09:36] <madrebel> what to do
[09:36] <ANub> ive tried ntfs-3g as well
[09:36] <bazhang> !repeat | madrebel
[09:36] <madrebel> forum surfing is age-inducing
[09:37] <e66> skai-falkorr:  so they are NOT required to release it in 13th April
[09:37] <madrebel> makes me feel old while i desperately try to find answers
[09:37] <skai-falkorr> e66: not required, but they must do it for good number magic^_^
[09:37] <llutz_> ANub: s/sue/use/
[09:37] <yeats> !nvidia | madrebel
 i didn't get the last one
[09:39] <ANub> what do u mean..
[09:41] <hannah_irina> hi, why mozilla crash fast in ubuntu?
[09:41] <llutz_> ANub: i just tried to correct my typ into "...cannot use unix-permissions". you cannot change permissions file/dir-wise on ntfs, you use mount-options for the whole fs when mounting the fs
[09:44] <hanazuki_> i have gnome running on ubuntu 12.04 , but it feels like there still are some visual effects turned on ?!
[09:44] <hanazuki_> is there a way to see it and turn it off ?
[09:45] <MonkeyDust> hannah_irina  start from the beginning, what were you doing and what went wrong, what version of ubuntu are you running
[09:45] <hanazuki_> like in 11.04 when you could turn it off
[09:45] <hannah_irina> MonkeyDust, i have 10 firefox open and websites refreshed at 25sec ( is online webcam on )
[09:46] <MonkeyDust> hanazuki_  use 'classic no effects'
[09:46] <MonkeyDust> hannah_irina  10 FF open?
[09:46] <hanazuki_> MonkeyDust,  okey i wll try that now see if i got it in my list
[09:46] <MonkeyDust> hannah_irina  10 tabs in FF?
[09:46] <hannah_irina> yes
[09:47] <hannah_irina> no separated window
[09:47] <kyubotsu> hanazuki_: he means from the login screen; another option is to adjust the settings using ccsm
[09:47] <MonkeyDust> hannah_irina  try 10 tabs in 1 window
[09:48] <hannah_irina> oki
[09:48] <hanazuki_> Kyubotsu , yes in i have some options in login , ccsm is that an easier way ?
[09:49] <kyubotsu> login option is simpler
[09:49] <kyubotsu> there should not be any effects running in 'classic' mode
[09:50] <ronny> hi
[09:50] <ronny> anyone aware of a way to build stuff on ubuntu so it will be binary compatible with other linux distros
[09:50] <ronny> currently it fails flat wrt glibc versions and libffi versions
[09:51] <hannah_irina> MonkeyDust, but where i see the error crashed of firefox?
[09:52] <MonkeyDust> hannah_irina  not sure what you mean or want to achieve
[09:53] <hannah_irina> i need to see the error of firefox when crashed
[09:53] <hanazuki_> it worked, thanks mokeydust/kyubotsu
[09:59] <dawgb0ne> hi people..  I just installed ubunto on a partitioned drive.  After installation computer rebooted from windows 7 to ubunto, and all was ok.  Now after going back to windows, then back to ubunto it looks like the graphics driver is lost.  The main question is, if i find and install the driver for linux ubunto will it interfere with the windows driver ?
[10:00] <msp301> dawgb0ne: Windows & Ubuntu drivers will not interfere with each other
[10:01] <kyubotsu> dawgb0ne: look at it this way, what happens in ubuntu stays in ubuntu
[10:01] <MonkeyDust> kyubotsu  nicely put
[10:01] <msp301> kyubotsu: well said :)
[10:02] <dawgb0ne> Ok, i'll embed that into my memory :)  I'm thinking that I may need to download catalyst for my video card, as i had to with windows 7 to use monitor with HD.
[10:03] <bekks> dawgb0ne: Booting different OS will not cause to lose a driver.
[10:03] <kyubotsu> dawgb0ne: you'll be fine, just try System Settings/Additional Drivers first before delving into tty land
[10:03] <dawgb0ne> ok cheers
[10:03] <kyubotsu> ergo, reinstall the driver
[10:04] <Azzle-Dazzle> guys, Update manager is showing that there are some updates, But it wont let me select 'Install' - heres a screenshot https://dl.dropbox.com/u/69014495/Screenshot%20from%202012-09-29%2011%3A00%3A37.png
[10:04] <Azzle-Dazzle> nor will it let me select the updates either
[10:05] <MonkeyDust> Azzle-Dazzle  a PPA ?
[10:05] <Azzle-Dazzle> not sure what that means exactly
[10:05] <Azzle-Dazzle> still havent mastered this linux thing ! and its been about 2 months lol
[10:06] <dawgb0ne> i heard it takes a while
[10:06] <MonkeyDust> !find noobslab
[10:06] <VlanZ> a simple question guys: i my system freezes istantly and i can't even suu the caps lock led on the USB keyboard when i press it, could it be more than a Xorg issue?
[10:06] <bekks> dawgb0ne: ...to do what?
[10:06] <dawgb0ne> learn the art of linux :)
[10:06] <dawgb0ne> day 1 for me
[10:06] <bekks> dawgb0ne: It takes decades. :)
[10:06] <MonkeyDust> Azzle-Dazzle  noobslab is something exotic, ubuntu does not know what it is
[10:07] <Azzle-Dazzle> lol okay, Shall I just ignore it then ?
[10:07] <msp301> Azzle-Dazzle: I use "add-apt-repository" to add new repositories to Ubuntu .. it sorts it all out for you
[10:07] <kyubotsu> Azzle-Dazzle: you don't recall installing it?
[10:08] <MonkeyDust> Azzle-Dazzle  what do you want to do, what is this noobslab?
[10:08] <Azzle-Dazzle> No i dont lol, I do recall installing loads of crap from the ubuntu software centre and gnome extensions lol
[10:08] <Azzle-Dazzle> I dont know what it is so i dont know what i want to do with it lol
[10:09] <msp301> Azzle-Dazzle: If you want the updates try running ... sudo add-apt-repository "http://ppa.launchpad.net/noobslab/gnome/ubuntu"
[10:09] <MonkeyDust> Azzle-Dazzle  what's the outcome of lsb_release -sd ?
[10:09] <kyubotsu> !info noobslab
[10:09] <Azzle-Dazzle> gimme one sec, Information overload !!
[10:10] <msp301> Azzle-Dazzle: given that you don't know what it is, remove it from Software Sources :)
[10:10] <Azzle-Dazzle> MonkeyDust - Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
[10:10] <Azzle-Dazzle> haha good idea msp301 !
[10:11] <msp301> Azzle-Dazzle: The Launchpad site for it is https://launchpad.net/~noobslab/+archive/gnome ... it looks like it includes stuff for Gnome3 .. do you have Gnome3 installed?
[10:11] <Azzle-Dazzle> I think i know what it is, Its a gnome extension - Axe Menu to be precise, Or at leasts thats whats coming up under noobslab in synaptic
[10:11] <Azzle-Dazzle> yes :)
[10:12] <MonkeyDust> msp301  precise comes with gnome3 by default
[10:12] <kyubotsu> gnome3 with unity as interface ..
[10:12] <MonkeyDust> unity is a shell over gnome3
[10:12] <msp301> MonkeyDust: Alright thanks, maybe I should've used Gnome-Shell instead
[10:14] <kyubotsu> Azzle-Dazzle: also, when update-manager front-end gives me trouble i run apt-get in terminal
[10:15] <Azzle-Dazzle> thanks kyubotsu i will try that now, Also, does anyone here use chromium ?
[10:15] <bekks> Azzle-Dazzle: Why?
[10:16] <Azzle-Dazzle> cause lately its been freezing and crashing unexpectedly
[10:16] <Azzle-Dazzle> wanted to know if its just me its affecting
[10:16] <kyubotsu> Azzle-Dazzle: you mean while watching videos?
[10:17] <sl1ck> how do I check my disk for errors?
[10:17] <Azzle-Dazzle> it varies really, Sometimes it will be trying to load a web page, sometimes watching videos etc etc
[10:17] <cabula> salve a tutti!
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> !it
[10:17] <mac_12> cabula: salve
[10:18] <VlanZ> a simple question: My system freezes istantly and i can't even see the caps lock led on the USB keyboard when i press it, could it be more than a Xorg issue?
[10:18] <kyubotsu> Azzle-Dazzle: it's possible it's related to your video driver issue, update/reinstall and reboot and see how it goes from there
[10:18] <Azzle-Dazzle> Ok, Ill have a fiddle with it now :) thanks !
[10:24] <serban> is there any possible way of making a whole prefix in wine-1.4 use a specific proxy/tunnel/vpn for all connections?
[10:25] <serban> i've tried setting up wine to use a proxy, but only the http connections went trough that.
[10:31] <mac_nibblet> Can one recevies virtualization help in here?
[10:31] <bekks> serban: What do you expect to go through your proxy besides http?
[10:31] <bekks> mac_nibblet: ?
[10:31] <vashamilova>  /budus macro xdcc d 783
[10:32] <serban> some game traffic
[10:32] <bekks> serban: Define "some game traffic" please.
[10:33] <kyubotsu> serban: #winehq might offer better support for your question
[10:34] <e66> I am sharing internet from eth1 to eth2. I also use dnsmasq for dns caching. Now if I enable Internet sharing I have to stop the existing dnsmasq instance. network manager starts its own dnsmasq instance. But this dnsmasq has no dns caching options. So my dns query takes more time. How can I change the dnsmasq or network manager so when network manager starts the dnsmasq it also support dns caching? Sorry for the long question.
[10:34] <bekks> e66: Define "takes more time" in exact delays in ms or s please.
[10:35] <bekks> Without thousands of parallel qqueries, you wont even notice having a cache.
[10:35] <e66> when I use dns caching it takes 0ms. If not I takes 100ms
[10:35] <MonkeyDust> e66  there's also ##networking   some 420 people there
[10:35] <e66> MonkeyDust: they will ask me which distro. When i answer ubuntu they will redirect me here.
[10:36] <bekks> e66: How do you measaure that exactly?
[10:37] <e66> !dig
[10:37] <bekks> *measure even.
[10:37] <e66> dig command
[10:37] <Azzle-Dazzle> okay guys i think my issue is flash related, Its happening in konqueror browser too, It only seems to freeze / crash when watching a flash video or using a flash game..
[10:38] <e66> why you are focusing the time duration? are you going to suggest me that this time duration is negligible and I should not use dns caching?
[10:38] <e66> bekks: ^
[10:38] <bekks> e66: Odd. I get 12ms as longest delay. :)
[10:39] <e66> bekks: I dont live in your country. I have 300ms latency to yahoos server.
[10:39] <bekks> Then 100ms for DNS resolving are negligible.
[10:40] <e66> bekks: thinking a problem a not-problem is not a solution.
[10:40] <bekks> e66: And yahoos servers are slow, I have 210ms to them too.
[10:41] <bekks> e66: Did you try another DNS server yet?
[10:41] <gordonjcp> oh, annoying, ffmpeg has been deprecated in favour of avconv
[10:42] <e66> bekks:  I use googles dns server. BTW external dns is not the issue here.
[10:43] <RWOverdijk> Is there an alternative to empathy? I mean, empathy is completely integrated with ubuntu 12.04, and I really don't like it. It doesn't even work (it signs me in everywhere but I always have to manually sign in my msn account)
[10:44] <RWOverdijk> If there was a way to solve that, I guess empathy would be fine.
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> RWOverdijk  there's pidgin, i guess it's similar
[10:44] <RWOverdijk> MonkeyDust: I know pidgin, I usually use pidgin. But it doesn't integrate with ubuntu as well. Like the status thingy and the notifications.
[10:45] <nicekiwi> hey I installed ubuntu from a live USB with acpi off boot setting, the system installed and I rebooted but nothing come up on the screen? How can I get into Grub before the linux system starts booting? presumably to add that into the bootloader..
[10:45] <kyubotsu> RWOverdijk: do a quick search on Software Center. surely options will come up. empathy is default instant messaging software since karmic though...
[10:45] <Azzle-Dazzle> How do I add something to the start up programs ? Do i just put the command in? like- Sudo PS3MediaServer ?
[10:47] <bekks> e66: if external DNS isnt the problem - then where does that delay of 100ms actually happens?
[10:47] <nicekiwi> Azzle-Dazzle, without the sudo bit, yes.
[10:47] <nicekiwi> aww.. i was so close
[10:47] <rootninja> !
[10:48] <kyubotsu> Azzle-Dazzle: the button on the very top right corner (top bar) has an option for 'startup applications'
[10:48] <e66> bekks: The problem I describe in this channel is not about external dns. Its about configuring dnsmasq with network manager.  external dns is out of problem scope.
[10:48] <RWOverdijk> kyubotsu: I'll search. By the way, where do I go with empathy specific questions? I wish I could just fix the sign in issue. Because other than that it's a great application. Light weight, not in my way and nicely integrated.
[10:48] <nicekiwi> kyubotsu, he left.
[10:49] <bekks> e66: Then I am out of your ticket since you dont explain where you got that 100ms delay when its not an external DNS problem. I'm sorry.
[10:49] <kyubotsu> RWOverdijk: i believe there should be an #empathy channel ...
[10:50] <e66> bekks: read my question again please.
[10:50] <pentagon> How do I search for a file from cli ?
[10:50] <RWOverdijk> kyubotsu: Nope. Just me in there.
[10:50] <bekks> pentagon: "find" :)
[10:50] <e66> 100ms is time takes for dns resolving.  If I use dns caching it take 0ms.
[10:50] <codemaniac> pentagon: use the find command
[10:51] <codemaniac> pentagon: find /path/to/look/for -name "*file*" -print
[10:51] <codemaniac> pentagon: find /path/to/look/for -name "*file*" -print 2> /dev/null
[10:52] <pentagon> dev null ?
[10:52] <Boreeas> Or 'locate'
[10:52] <hannah_irina> hi, this is the error how crashed my firefox on ubuntu: (firefox:5128): Gdk-CRITICAL **: IA__gdk_window_get_user_data: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed , how i resolve?
[10:52] <codemaniac> pentagon: the error messages are redirected to /dev/null
[10:53] <bekks> hannah_irina: Thats an assertion only, not a clue why your firefox crashed.
[10:53] <administrator> hi guys
[10:53] <codemaniac> if you look for a file in directories you dont have a permission to look into
[10:53] <administrator> i want to block pen drive in ubuntu 12.04
[10:54] <kyubotsu> RWOverdijk: also, if you consider this behaviour to be a bug then by all means file it
[10:54] <kyubotsu> !bug
[10:54] <pentagon> How come i hve no dhclient.leases file ?
[10:54] <RWOverdijk> kyubotsu: I consider the whole msn service to be a bug.. :p But I think it's a bug in empathy, not so much ubuntu.
[10:55] <hannah_irina> bekks uff
[10:55] <pentagon> Isn't it supposed to have one to use dhcp I ran find / dhclient.leases
[10:55] <kyubotsu> RWOverdijk: fair enough
[10:55] <pentagon> codemaniac: any ideas ?
[10:55] <codemaniac> pentagon: i have no idea what is dhclient.leases file .
[10:55] <RWOverdijk> kyubotsu: So, last time I'll bother you. Where do I file potential empathy bugs?
[10:55] <pentagon> It seems there is always a gap between the way the machine runs and the manuals.
[10:56] <codemaniac> where does it reside /etc ?
[10:56] <geirha> pentagon: try:  locate dhclient.leases
[10:56] <codemaniac> pentagon: i my system it is /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.leases
[10:56] <bekks> codemaniac: Thats correct.
[10:57] <codemaniac> pentagon: find / -name dhclient.leases -print 2>/dev/null
[10:57] <kyubotsu> RWOverdijk: i'd say the most commonly venue would be via Launchpad. check out the factoid !bug as well
[10:57] <pentagon> there it is! locate geirha is that a new command
[10:58] <pentagon> codemaniac: why dev/null
[10:58] <folorn> hmm
[10:58] <bekks> pentagon: "locate geirha" is the command to use locate to find the file named "geirha".
[10:58] <bekks> 0929 125255 < codemaniac> pentagon: the error messages are redirected to /dev/null
[10:59] <geirha> pentagon: No, it's common on linux systems. Though it doesn't show you current files, it shows you files from a database that gets updated once a day
[10:59] <kyubotsu> !bug > RWOverdijk
[10:59] <pentagon> oic
[11:00] <pentagon> well my dhclient.leases is empty yet i am connected what is the deal ?
[11:00] <RWOverdijk> kyubotsu: Thanks.
