| DGMurdockIII | can anyone help me get sound working | 03:58 |
| DGMurdockIII | or point me to some info how i can get it working on ubuntu server | 03:58 |
| PhotoJim | this isn't helpful, but why do you need audio on a server? | 03:59 |
| DGMurdockIII | need audio on my htpc | 04:02 |
| PhotoJim | you'll probably get a lot more help setting up audio on the standard #ubuntu channel... | 04:02 |
| PhotoJim | it's set up the same way on both standard and server editions... not sure if there is anything missing from the server kernel that is needed for audio though | 04:03 |
| DGMurdockIII | i don't need GNOME or anything else running | 04:06 |
| giovani | DGMurdockIII: we understand | 04:22 |
| giovani | but the audio service is the same between desktop and server | 04:22 |
| DGMurdockIII | ok | 04:23 |
| giovani | have you used alsamixer to unmute the master channel? | 04:23 |
| DGMurdockIII | no | 04:23 |
| giovani | ... well that's essentially linux audio 101 :) | 04:23 |
| giovani | start alsamixer | 04:23 |
| giovani | and unmute all of the important-looking channels | 04:23 |
| DGMurdockIII | if that dose not work | 04:24 |
| giovani | well clearly there are many things that can go wrong | 04:25 |
| giovani | but the troubleshooting for audio is generally the same across linux distributions | 04:25 |
| giovani | make sure the card is supported, and that the driver was loaded for it | 04:25 |
| ruben23 | hi anyone have setup | 04:28 |
| ruben23 | vsftpd..? | 04:28 |
| ruben23 | and wroking smoothly | 04:29 |
| giovani | sure, in the past | 04:42 |

| clusty | hey | 04:58 |
| clusty | got the weirdest problem ever: my machine has internet and somehow apt-get fails to get any packages | 04:59 |
| clusty | saying mirrors are unreachable, when they are online | 04:59 |
| clusty | any ideas what might this be? | 05:00 |
| jmarsden | Does your machine have working DNS? Have you tried using different mirrors? | 05:02 |
| qman__ | first, check DNS | 05:02 |
| jmarsden | :) | 05:02 |
| qman__ | then, check your apt sources.list | 05:02 |
| clusty | jmarsden, http://pastebin.com/m28c30def | 05:03 |
| clusty | i owuld say yes | 05:03 |
| clusty | ping works. from another machine that has identical list i can do everything just fine | 05:04 |
| qman__ | next logical step, are you being blocked by a firewall along the way? | 05:04 |
| clusty | qman__, cannot see how. | 05:05 |
| jmarsden | clusty: You can use wget to see if you can grab a file or two from the same archive site as a fairly simple test of that. | 05:06 |
| jmarsden | Or curl, or lftp, or whatever little command line file grabbing tool you prefer, really :) | 05:07 |
| qman__ | as long as it's an HTTP get | 05:07 |
| qman__ | since apt uses HTTP | 05:07 |
| qman__ | you can use telnet if you want | 05:07 |
| clusty | http://pastebin.com/m6472610f | 05:10 |
| clusty | WTF | 05:10 |
| clusty | i also cannot wget | 05:10 |
| qman__ | well, that pinpoints it | 05:11 |
| qman__ | it's clearly a DNS issue on the local machine | 05:11 |
| clusty | http://pastebin.com/m5cb336c3 | 05:12 |
| qman__ | dig tends to work even if there's a local issue | 05:12 |
| clusty | how? | 05:12 |
| qman__ | try nslookup | 05:12 |
| clusty | http://pastebin.com/m6309df9e | 05:12 |
| clusty | works | 05:12 |
| clusty | lemme see one thing | 05:12 |
| clusty | on this machine i was playing with puppet | 05:12 |
| clusty | to use as a slave | 05:13 |
| qman__ | try ping | 05:13 |
| qman__ | it might be an nsswitch thing | 05:13 |
| qman__ | or whatever it is on ubuntu, I can't remember the name | 05:13 |
| clusty | ping what? | 05:14 |
| clusty | i did ping | 05:14 |
| clusty | and works | 05:14 |
| clusty | nscd? | 05:14 |
| clusty | i am using nsswitrch | 05:14 |
| clusty | cause machine have ldap auth | 05:14 |
| qman__ | if ping works but wget doesn't, then it's a different issue from what I was thinking | 05:16 |
| qman__ | wget is clearly not resolving the name, though it isn't clear why | 05:16 |
| clusty | besides an educational experience is a waste of time to fix :D | 05:17 |
| clusty | easiuer to reinstall all | 05:17 |
| clusty | one machine out of 10 is twitching | 05:17 |
| clusty | thanks for help | 05:17 |
| qman__ | yeah, that's pretty odd | 05:17 |
| qman__ | I've seen similar problems but all those tests show it's not those | 05:18 |
| clusty | will just install a fresh ubu and copy on top conf files | 05:18 |
| clusty | well i made a bit of mess of it :( | 05:18 |
| clusty | still don't have proper local dns working | 05:18 |
| clusty | thanks for trying | 05:20 |
| jmarsden | clusty: Sounds like you edited the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf and broke it, to me? | 05:33 |
| jmarsden | dig and nslookup contain their own resolvers, but normal command line tools like wget will use the system resolver libraries and so honor nsswitch.conf. | 05:34 |
| jmarsden | Are you already reinstalling, or do you want to pastebin your /etc/nsswitch.conf file? | 05:37 |
| clusty | i can pastebin | 05:39 |
| clusty | i canonet reinstall till monday | 05:39 |
| clusty | boxes are in germany | 05:39 |
| clusty | :D | 05:39 |
| clusty | jmarsden, http://pastebin.com/m41321ce6 | 05:40 |
| clusty | that looks kinda fine to me | 05:42 |
| jmarsden | Looks OK... is /etc/resolv.conf sane? Maybe pastebin that too? | 05:42 |
| clusty | http://pastebin.com/m11da9411 | 05:43 |
| clusty | last package i installed was puppet | 05:43 |
| clusty | which i have yet to get working | 05:44 |
| jmarsden | OK, so DNS uses a local nameserver... is that nameserver at 192.168.0.1 known to be working? | 05:44 |
| clusty | yes | 05:44 |
| clusty | that is the router | 05:44 |
| clusty | and ping resolves IPs | 05:44 |
| clusty | i mean hostnames | 05:44 |
| jmarsden | If you replace it with your providers nameserver can you then wget and have the name resoltuion work for Ubuntu mirrors? | 05:44 |
| clusty | second | 05:44 |
| clusty | jmarsden, nope | 05:46 |
| clusty | jmarsden, but how can i even use it? | 05:46 |
| clusty | cause isp dns is: 192.168.178.1 | 05:46 |
| clusty | nvm | 05:47 |
| clusty | :D | 05:47 |
| jmarsden | I think I can now explain the ping vs wget issue... ping links libresolve.so.2, wget uses the system resolver libs. | 05:47 |
| jmarsden | Huh? How can your ISPs public DNS be a private IP address? :) | 05:47 |
| clusty | nvm | 05:47 |
| clusty | 1AM and too much beer :D | 05:47 |
| jmarsden | So ping does not read the /etc/resolv.conf (I think), but wget and most other apps do use whatever is in /etc/resolv.conf | 05:48 |
| jmarsden | I need to go AFK for a while, but I think if you just put working public nameserver IPs in your .etc/resolv.conf your DNS will work (for external hostname resolution, at least). | 05:48 |
| clusty | i got same resolv.conf on all machines | 05:49 |
| clusty | will try now with opendns | 05:49 |
| clusty | thanks | 05:49 |
| jmarsden | Ugh... opendns has other issues and is best avoided, IMO, but OK :) | 05:49 |

| nijaba | Daviey: is it really necessary to prefix each tip with "Ubuntu Server Tip: "? It eats quite a few characters on an already limited space (18 out of 160) | 13:45 |
| Daviey | nijaba: not really, the reason for that is that it's my understanding that having the fortunes installed, means that when fortune is called on it's own, it will include our tips. I feel that when someone fires the fortune command, and gets a server tip - it might be a little out of context | 13:56 |
| Daviey | However, i'm happy to remove it | 13:56 |
| nijaba | Daviey: right, but at the same time, fortunes never say where they are from, do they? | 13:57 |
| nijaba | Daviey: I am currently inserting all the confirmed tips that were waiting in the bug list | 13:58 |

| android6011 | I installed ubuntu server to a drive, now I am adding 2 drives into the machine. How can I get them to show up in /media/ArchiveDisk1 /media/MainStorage1 ? I know I can add a line to /etc/fstab but how do I figure out the UUID and all that | 18:10 |
| ruben23 | hi | 18:10 |
| android6011 | they are going to be data drives for ftp, samba etc so I don't know what other options I might need to add | 18:11 |
| conky_ | eh | 18:11 |
| conky_ | android6011: | 18:11 |
| conky_ | open terminal; sudo fdisk -l | 18:12 |
| conky_ | now you have the partitions and types | 18:12 |
| android6011 | its showing as /dev/sda1 | 18:12 |
| conky_ | df -h should show that mounted already | 18:12 |
| conky_ | most likely your root partition | 18:12 |
| conky_ | use pastbin and show df -h | 18:12 |
| conky_ | and sudo fdisk -l | 18:12 |
| conky_ | and cat /etc/fstab | 18:12 |
| conky_ | ::waits:: | 18:13 |
| android6011 | the thing is, the main disk used to be /dev/sda but now the new one is, i just don't want to mess anything up, if i add more disks later and have them get mixed up if the /dev/sd# changes | 18:13 |
| pmatulis | android6011: see blkid command and the contents of /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | 18:13 |
| android6011 | the new drive isnt listed as mounted at all | 18:13 |
| android6011 | only sdb shows up in blkid | 18:14 |
| conky_ | android6011: you need to open box and put main drive on sata port 0/1 whichever's first | 18:14 |
| conky_ | then add the other drives whereever | 18:14 |
| * conky_ waits. | 18:14 | |
| android6011 | system drive is ide, others are sata | 18:15 |
| conky_ | sigh. | 18:15 |
| conky_ | well w/e | 18:15 |
| conky_ | does it still boot? | 18:15 |
| conky_ | /dev/sda7 /home ext4 relatime 0 2 | 18:16 |
| android6011 | ya it boots fine, i know how to set boot priority and everything fine in bios, its just like i said, i dont want to add drives later and because i added mount points to /etc/fstab by like /dev/sda1 and the drives get switched and things go bad | 18:16 |
| pmatulis | android6011: so use uuid's | 18:16 |
| android6011 | i cant find UUID of the drive though, only the current mounted paritions | 18:17 |
| android6011 | and like i said, im not sure if i should add in other options with the disk for better performance | 18:17 |
| android6011 | and also, for data drives, what fs should i use? XFS? | 18:20 |
| maswan | I'd use xfs for anything over a dozen or so gb | 18:23 |
| android6011 | well they are 1TB drives so i guess xfs it is | 18:24 |
| conky_ | android6011: | 18:24 |
| conky_ | /dev/sda7 /home ext4 relatime,user 0 2 | 18:25 |
| conky_ | thats my recommendation | 18:25 |
| conky_ | just change dev and mountpoint | 18:25 |
| conky_ | jf | 18:25 |
| conky_ | hf ** | 18:25 |
| android6011 | conky_: so what does that do? the realtime,user 0 2 part? | 18:25 |
| conky_ | android6011: google. | 18:32 |
| conky_ | [update times accessed, let everyone thats user access, and the last bit you need to google, its abit complicated] | 18:33 |
| android6011 | ok I used fdisk to delete all the partitions on the disk, created new part table, added a partition size of the disk, and did mkfs -t xfs /dev/sda1 . So I should be good to add it to /etc/fstab now right? nothign else to be done | 18:43 |
| Alopoe | Hello guys do you know if the latest 64bit ubuntu server works with xen ? | 18:50 |
| Alopoe | without any need to recompile the kernel... | 18:50 |
| nick125 | Alopoe: You have to get a kernel from somewhere else, since Ubuntu doesn't include a dom0 kernel in their repos. | 18:59 |
| nick125 | I used Debian's Xen dom0 kernel and it works fine, for what it's worth. | 19:00 |
| Alopoe | nick i found that and installed debian also | 19:02 |
| Alopoe | but it seems now i get errors in loading the xen kernel :( | 19:03 |
| Alopoe | the last 2 lines before my system autoreboots xen are assign_interrupt_mode Found MSI capability | 19:03 |
| Alopoe | [ 0.462917] no ownder | 19:03 |
| Alopoe | and then it hangs and auto reboot | 19:03 |
| Alopoe | i am using debian 2.6.30 kernel (amd64) | 19:03 |
| Alopoe | xen 3.4 and xen kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64 | 19:05 |
| Alopoe | any ideas ? | 19:05 |
