Ponch0 | hey guys I'm having 1 issue and 1 question, one when I'm trying to update through software updater, it crashes or rather just stops updating halfway through | 04:52 |
Ponch0 | and 2 when I shut down I see a message pop up that says -- root broadcast unknown -- something to that effect, what does that mean? | 04:52 |
darkxst | file a bug against software updater, we don't touch that | 04:53 |
darkxst | I have no idea, but wouldnt worry to much about the message | 04:53 |
Ponch0 | allright, thank you. | 04:59 |
Ponch0 | is there a way to update the available updates through terminal? | 04:59 |
darkxst | Ponch0, 'sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade' | 05:04 |
darkxst | or use synaptic if you want a GUI for it | 05:04 |
Ponch0 | darkxt: thanks I just tried to do it through terminal and am getting some messages... E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:05 |
Ponch0 | E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ | 05:05 |
darkxst | software updater must still be running? or USC? | 05:06 |
Ponch0 | nope software updater crashed, but I guess it's somewhere in the background | 05:06 |
darkxst | 'killall update-manager; | 05:06 |
darkxst | oh that might not work, since its a python script | 05:07 |
Ponch0 | yeah it didn't I guess I should restart, and just run it through terminal. | 05:07 |
Ponch0 | before trying software updater | 05:08 |
darkxst | just kill it! | 05:08 |
darkxst | ps ax | grep update-manager | 05:08 |
darkxst | kill -9 <first number on previous line> | 05:08 |
Ponch0 | ps ax - 4271 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto update-manager | 05:09 |
darkxst | kill -9 4271 | 05:09 |
Ponch0 | thank u ! | 05:10 |
Ponch0 | bash: kill: (4271) - No such process | 05:10 |
darkxst | hmm its already kill'ed then | 05:11 |
darkxst | oh that like was not really update-manager running, it was the grep command | 05:11 |
Ponch0 | ok apt-get update works I guess one of the previous lines worked even tho they all kicked back an error | 05:11 |
Ponch0 | and sudo apt-get upgrade gave me this - The following packages have been kept back: gvfs-common. | 05:13 |
darkxst | the upgrade dependency resolver is very conservative | 05:14 |
Ponch0 | ok awesome ran software updater and it worked, came back saying my computer is up to date, thanks for the help. | 05:15 |
Ponch0 | let me try ubuntu to see if anyone knows about this root message. | 05:16 |
Ponch0 | darkxt - you're the man btw! but one last question, how do I check which display manager I'm using? | 05:18 |
darkxst | ps ax | grep gdm | 05:20 |
darkxst | if you get a whole bunch of output you are running gdm | 05:21 |
darkxst | otherwise probably lightdm | 05:21 |
darkxst | if you installed from ubuntu gnome images then you will be using gdm | 05:21 |
Ponch0 | a bunch of gdm messages popped up in red so I guess it's that one | 05:22 |
darkxst | yeh, gdm is a grey thing, that looks just like the shell lock screen | 05:22 |
Ponch0 | yup that's it, the reason I asked is because the updates that were freezing up, were trying to update lightdm, i'm curious if it had somehting to do with that. | 05:25 |
darkxst | no shouldn't, they can peacefully co-exist at the same time | 05:33 |
darkxst | just only one can be actually active | 05:33 |
Ponch0 | Ok, also I have UFW on, and I have logs with a lot of blocked TCP OUT messages, it's set to default. Is that normal? | 05:35 |
darkxst | would have thought it only blocks IN by default | 05:36 |
Ponch0 | [UFW BLOCK] IN=wlan0 OUT= | 05:37 |
darkxst | but not really sure what 'default' consists of! | 05:37 |
Ponch0 | haha ok | 05:37 |
Ponch0 | I think you're right about the IN, would be default block | 05:37 |
Ponch0 | are there any security apps recommended with min to no config I should have in gnome? | 05:38 |
Ponch0 | so I looked up a random IP from the OUT block list --- www.amazon.com | 05:54 |
Ponch0 | so amazon is trying to pull my info | 05:55 |
darkxst | hmm, unity uses amazon search by default, but that doesnt exist in shell | 06:11 |
darkxst | Ponch0, if you are behind a NAT'ed router, then you don't really need any security apps | 06:12 |
darkxst | if your machine is connected directly to the internet, then yes run a firewall | 06:12 |
darkxst | ufw should be fine | 06:13 |
Ponch0 | I'm not really tech savvy but one of the IP addresses is this website and it has something to do with DDoS? and i'm confused as to why | 06:18 |
Ponch0 | that | 06:18 |
Ponch0 | their website http://www.sharktech.net/ | 06:18 |
darkxst | is your machine connected directly to the internet? or via a router | 06:22 |
Ponch0 | router. | 06:23 |
darkxst | so a ddos would take down your router pretty quickly, but wont affect your computer unless you have DMZ or uPnp enabled | 06:24 |
darkxst | but even still consumer routers don't really handle lots of connections well, so it will most likely just crash | 06:25 |
Ponch0 | um ok? but i don't think they ddos, i think they protect from it, from what I understand so I'm not sure why they're in the logs | 06:25 |
darkxst | Ponch0, possibly they had ads somehwere? | 06:26 |
Ponch0 | aah friggin ads! | 06:26 |
Ponch0 | that's right! | 06:26 |
Ponch0 | I have adblock on mozilla | 06:26 |
Ponch0 | i'm paranoid lol thanks for dealing with me | 06:28 |
Ponch0 | have a good night/day | 06:31 |
darkxst | ricotz, changed your mind on spidermonkey in the ppa yet? | 08:12 |
darkxst | we have an official js17 tarball and a stable gjs-js17 branch ;) | 08:19 |
ricotz | darkxst, i see, it will still need a custom gjs-js17 tarball, but i guess this would be fine with the benefits we gain with it | 08:39 |
dupondje | Empathy works for somebody ? | 18:06 |
