Journeyman Geek

yes, how could you

Lucio

Hey, how are you!

Nice to see you around :)

And your dog, right.

Journeyman Geek

woof?

I have a dog?

;p

Yeah, its the rare spottiswoode terrier.

Lucio

wow, that is impressive. Only you can spell that race :)

Journeyman Geek

(he's a mutt. We have no idea what he is ;p)

Lucio

01:07

lol

Pretty sure you love it no matter the race

Journeyman Geek

XD. I'm sort of his pet human

and yeah, he's a lovely dog

Lucio

that's true. Everyone of us, that have a dog, are pet humans

Journeyman Geek

(and every single SE ava I have used has been pictures of him ;p. Granted, he's ridiculously photogenic when you actually manage to take a photo of him)

RPi Awesomeness

@JourneymanGeek Dude, that is a cute dog :) Love it

Journeyman Geek

@Lucio: mini schnauzers seem to have favourites ;p

and in his case he's convinced I'm the human pup they adopted right after we adopted him to keep him company

Lucio

Sorry, too many hi* for me to understand that phrase.

Did you mean that you have another dog?

Seth

Whoa.. I'm lost too.

RPi Awesomeness

Anyone here know of any good sub-50 headphones?

Braiam

@RPiAwesomeness anything but beats... is the thing I always hear

RPi Awesomeness

lol, Beats are absurdly over-priced and over-hyped

OMW someone with sense!

Sony makes some good ones for an ok price.

RPi Awesomeness

@Seth Yeah, I'm looking at this one:

Yeah have some similar ones, they're pretty good.

Mofongo

Mofongo () is a fried plantain-based dish from Puerto Rico. It is typically made with fried green plantains mashed together in a pilón (which is a wooden mortar and pestle), with broth, garlic, olive oil, and pork cracklings or bits of bacon. It is often filled with vegetables, chicken, crab, shrimp, or beef and is often served with fried meat and chicken broth soup. Mofongo relleno is mofongo served with stewed meat or seafood poured over it. Origins Mofongo is an Afro-Puerto Rican dish that has clear roots in west African Fufu.

RPi Awesomeness

01:44

@Lucio Hey, 14.04 had a lot more cool stuff that wallpapers, though, those were good :)

chaskes

@RPiAwesomeness Yeah, but I also just can't wait to see the new wallpapers...

Braiam

@Lucio you can just download the package and drop a "new theme"

on the third hand, I'm compiling mplayer from source to debug...

Lucio

I hate debug my own applications, imagine third party..

RPi Awesomeness

OMG! QC COMIC INCLUDING LINUX!!!!

chaskes

@Lucio You must love debugging. Use self-hypnosis if necessary. Also, get up and walk away for a few minutes. I can't count the number of times I stared at a screen for 2 hours, then saw the problem the second I came back from a break.

Lucio

01:49

very nice advice, indeed

A second programmer is the best (without doubts) for debugging.

chaskes

@Lucio Also good, yes.

Lucio

But most of the times it's not possible :(

Braiam

hey guys, now I'm building mesa :D

that is an intel driver, right?

oh, I hear about that

@JourneymanGeek How can I set it up?

Journeyman Geek

@Lucio: there's a deb, you install it it, go to the config page, and set a location and a secret key. Then you copy the secret key on the other system

be careful though, grive is very confusing.

Lucio

I thought that writing that question was going to be closed as dupe of this one :P

Braiam

@Oli you ought to check this out meta.stackoverflow.com/q/252327/792066

Lucio

I'm running copy but didn't knew they have a backup system. I will try it and tell you about it!

Seth

03:30

@Braiam yeah, he definitely should. His wizard looks way better.

(Oli's that is)

Although this guy's might be better for bigger sites.

@Lucio Cool!

Braiam

@Seth Oli's approach is "well, you have a problem, we expect you to give us X info"; that guy is "well, as you have written your question is likely to be closed, try to improve it"

Seth

mm.

Hi

Pavak Paul

I have a question about askubuntu. In askubuntu we are allowed to ask questions of Ubuntu. But is there any way that we can ask questions about Ubuntu based custom distros? We have made a custom distro called Oikyo Linux, which is based on Ubuntu. So is there any way that we can connect Oikyo Linux with askubuntu.com ?

Rinzwind

@PavakPaul those need to to go unix.stackexchange.com

if you want support through askubuntu you need to apply for your operating system to become official

2

Pavak Paul

06:46

@Rinzwind But is there any way to contact them and request? because basically Oikyo Linux is Ubuntu.

Danatela

07:01

@PavakPaul if you did not patch sources, your distro can be treaten as Ubuntu. And it is unlikely that distro without *buntu in title will become official.

Rinzwind

@PavakPaul see wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam/Derivatives

Pavak Paul

@Danatela , no I didn't messed with the source. It's a palin Ubuntu OS, having customizations and apps preinstalled. and comes with some other features. So in the core, it's the same Ubuntu.

ok

Rinzwind

and this is the list askubuntu supports: ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/derivatives

it would become very messy if askubuntu would support all the operating systems on the 1st link

Excuse me people! Does usb-modeswitch have anything to do with a USB keyboard?

And BTW, my friend wants me to set up ubuntu for him...but he wants to check out how ubuntu works first and then install it...So shall I dual boot ubuntu for him alongside windows or use a virtual machine?

@Rinzwind help ^ ?

Journeyman Geek

@Venki: why not just use a liveusb?

you could even have persistance

Venki

How to do that? Any answer in AU that could guide me?

@JourneymanGeek

Journeyman Geek

@Venki: I'd use unetbootin

it would do most of the work, assuming the USB is prepared correctly and can boot at all

Oli

@Venki I could be wrong but I think I've used usb-modeswitch to switch a 3G dongle from a mass storage device (it has a microsd reader) into a modem. (Edit, yup, seems to be the case)

Rinzwind

@Venki no

Venki

07:29

@JourneymanGeek Fine Any AU answer or ubuntu doc. on how to do that?

Rinzwind

usb-modeswitch is for switching usb modes and keyboards do not have that :+)

Journeyman Geek

and its something worth learning, since its a nice way to get install media set up too

Venki

@Oli Right @Rinzwind

Journeyman Geek

@Venki: unetbootin.sourceforge.net

Venki

@JourneymanGeek Thanks will read it and get back to you if I have doubts!

@Oli and @Rinzwind Then why do I always get an error msg about usb-modeswitch for every startup? !

@JourneymanGeek Doubt.... How is this different from selecting "Try ubuntu before installing" ?

from an installation media..

like DVD or USB..

Journeyman Geek

07:40

@Venki: it takes an ISO, created a USB install media/livecd and adds a small image file for things you want to keep saved

Venki

Oh! Right .. So I can have things saved... And 4GB pendrive is enogh?

BTW JourneymanGeek told something about 'persistence" whats that? Any doc. to know about that? @Rinzwind

Rinzwind

can I answer this with "yes you can"?

Venki

Found doc. for persistence..

Journeyman Geek

@Venki: basically you have a little bit of storage that survives being rebooted

the 'core' of your os is read only like a DVD, but stuff you install and save stays that way

Venki

Hmm.. thats what the doc. also seems to tell.. thanks for your help! Anyways I want to know more about VM and dual booting too! Searching for docs. .. and excited about setting up ubuntu for another person for the first time! :-D !

Fine.. I know but gksudo nautilus aint working!

Journeyman Geek

nope ;p

Danatela

if you have an answer I'll appreciate it ;)

Venki

@Danatela Maybe you use gparted after deleting casper -rw as told by this doc. ?? wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent

ray

@Venki gksudo not installed by default in 14.04

Venki

Yeah I have installed it.. can open gedit and other things.. but not nautilus

Danatela

@Venki nice! Consider to make an answer to that question.

Venki

Maybe.. I am actually trying to make a persistence now!! If you read the transcript you will know that I was just talking about that with JourneymanGeek! @Danatela

How to view the files in FAT32 partition of the USB ? @Danatela

Danatela

if you did not do anything to the flash it should be selected by default

like /dev/sdc1

just select the appropriate drive

Venki

Dont get what you are saying... Care to elaborate?

I am a newbie remember? :-P

Danatela

1. select the flash. In the upper right corner there is a selector
2. you will see one large partition, size of your flash

Venki

Ya.. but I need to locate casper -rw in FAT32 and delete it! how?

Danatela

there is a file named casper-rw on the flash

just locate it in Nautilus

Journeyman Geek

08:42

yup, thats an img file

Venki

oh! I am just so foolish!! fine.. will try..

hbdgaf

@Venki gksudo is deprecated. instead of separating graphical sudo environment variables out in to a separate utility, canonical thought it best to roll the save of DISPLAY in to sudo. just my thoughts on your problem.

thunar works with naked sudo, so... it nautilus doesn't it's just because it was abandoned for a fork.

Venki

@hbdgaf Hmmm... BTW I think i saw a bug related to that problem filed in lp.. I selected I have the same problem..some day. But now i cant see where that bug report is.. how to see it?

hbdgaf

it's probably by design, so it's no longer a bug. it's a design decision.

Venki

@hbdgaf Oh right!

But somewhere i saw a doc telling opening nautilus or graphical apps with sudo aint safe...

hbdgaf

08:53

It could have been my answer to a sudo doesn't work for this question. It's a silly fight to have though, because updating an answer that uses gksudo just means people that are lagging on old distros don't get any use. So the answer isn't updated. If sudo worked, it wouldn't be a question. If sudo works, then the question is a moot point. I got asked to update it the other day, but I won't. When sudo works, it's a non-question.

Venki

Fine!

@Danatela Hey ! I first tried partitioning with Gparted... I selected apply operations and it just closed!! Then I formatted the whole Pendrive and made a startup disk again...Deleted casper -rw again... Unmounted and remounted my pen drive and now GParted isnt allowing me to resize my partition!!

Danatela

you should unmount pen drive before doing any operation in Gparted on it

Venki

Oh!! Fine!! Will try now...

man gparted just closes!!!

Danatela

that means something went wrong with unmounting

Venki

i dunno.. i selected unmount.. then resized .. then selected apply all operations..but it just closes!

Danatela

09:06

was it opened in somewhere else?

Venki

Wait! I told Gparted to check and it shows libparted bug found....

and goes grey!

@Danatela

Danatela

what kind of bug?

Venki

Dunno it just shows a small error window with no contents but just the title.. and the title was 'libparted bug found' ...

my bet is something was still mounted, or something was malformed.

probably the prior

How to check if it is unmounted?

/dev/sdb is the whole disk and sdb1 is a partition

Gparted is buggy :(

@Danatela not really :)

Danatela

that's why it is still 0.10

@Rinzwind if not, how can we proceed?

terdon

@Venki Hang on, you've mounted via gvfs right? Based on your df output, I am assuming you ran nautilus as root for some reason so the drive is mounted on /root/.gvfs and you don't have access to it. What exactly are you trying to do?

Rinzwind

@Danatela not use root.

thanks!

haha root privileges are required

I actually created a Live usb with the startup disk creator on a 4GB pendrive... I selected the default 1GB persistence.. Now Danatela wants me to answer this question askubuntu.com/questions/291696/… whihc u have edited and so I am trying to dlete casper-rw and then resize the parition for persistence..as this doc. says ... wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent @terdon

Rinzwind

09:29

no

@Danatela no. if you want to reorganize a disc use the Live gParted

and if it is an usb stick no need to partition it. the create a usb thingy in dash does that

terdon

@Venki OK, I have next to no experience with live systems but I don't see how you can delete the casper-rw of a running system. As @Rinzwind said, you probably need to do this from a different live system.

Venki

What do you mean running system? I have deleted the casper -rw from my actual Ubuntu installation... not from when i was in the LiveUSB session..

@terdon

terdon

Ah, OK, sorry.

Venki

@Danatela So use sudo umount ??

Danatela

yes

Venki

09:33

@Danatela Gonna try that!

@Danatela Aint working Gparted closes now too!!!

Danatela

me too. try with another live flash

i.e. boot from another live flash and repartition from it

Venki

Fine.. but now I am trying to download the additional addons for Gparted from s/w centre :-P Hoping it would work!! :-P

I have GParted live CD !! :-p forgot i had it ...

But now trying it from my Ubuntu install itself.. after addons from s/w centre.. thing is going grey ....

stays grey...

Danatela

it seems we discovered a bug

Venki

But aint closing ! ... BTW I am only doing one operation now.... which is just resazing the existing partition and not creating a new one...

No good.. probably you are right @Danatela Anyways now gonna try from live CD and will get back to you later...

within half an hour..

gnome-disks

Danatela

but it is useless in our case :(

it only can change partition type

Venki

Ya..just realized that... :-(

@JourneymanGeek you were right! Thanks man! USB is listed now

@Venki if you have VirtualBox, you can try to repartition USB inside Windows ;)

@JourneymanGeek how do i reset my password protected sdcard through windows?

Journeyman Geek

how is it password protected?

Avinash Raj

through some options in that Nokia phone.

Journeyman Geek

couldn't you just reformat it?

Avinash Raj

I forget the password.

you mean putting the sdcard in a card-reader and then formatting it.

format it to which filesystem?
