=== atrus` is now known as atrus [04:49] atrus, maybe the black screen is fixed now? [04:52] 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] 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? [04:53] file a bug against software updater, we don't touch that [04:53] I have no idea, but wouldnt worry to much about the message [04:59] allright, thank you. [04:59] is there a way to update the available updates through terminal? [05:04] Ponch0, 'sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade' [05:04] or use synaptic if you want a GUI for it [05:05] 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] E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ [05:06] software updater must still be running? or USC? [05:06] nope software updater crashed, but I guess it's somewhere in the background [05:06] 'killall update-manager; [05:07] oh that might not work, since its a python script [05:07] yeah it didn't I guess I should restart, and just run it through terminal. [05:08] before trying software updater [05:08] just kill it! [05:08] ps ax | grep update-manager [05:08] kill -9 [05:09] ps ax - 4271 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto update-manager [05:09] kill -9 4271 [05:10] thank u ! [05:10] bash: kill: (4271) - No such process [05:11] hmm its already kill'ed then [05:11] oh that like was not really update-manager running, it was the grep command [05:11] ok apt-get update works I guess one of the previous lines worked even tho they all kicked back an error [05:13] and sudo apt-get upgrade gave me this - The following packages have been kept back: gvfs-common. [05:14] the upgrade dependency resolver is very conservative [05:15] ok awesome ran software updater and it worked, came back saying my computer is up to date, thanks for the help. [05:16] let me try ubuntu to see if anyone knows about this root message. [05:18] darkxt - you're the man btw! but one last question, how do I check which display manager I'm using? [05:20] ps ax | grep gdm [05:21] if you get a whole bunch of output you are running gdm [05:21] otherwise probably lightdm [05:21] if you installed from ubuntu gnome images then you will be using gdm [05:22] a bunch of gdm messages popped up in red so I guess it's that one [05:22] yeh, gdm is a grey thing, that looks just like the shell lock screen [05:25] 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. [05:33] no shouldn't, they can peacefully co-exist at the same time [05:33] just only one can be actually active [05:35] 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? [05:36] would have thought it only blocks IN by default [05:37] [UFW BLOCK] IN=wlan0 OUT= [05:37] but not really sure what 'default' consists of! [05:37] haha ok [05:37] I think you're right about the IN, would be default block [05:38] are there any security apps recommended with min to no config I should have in gnome? [05:54] so I looked up a random IP from the OUT block list --- www.amazon.com [05:55] so amazon is trying to pull my info [06:11] hmm, unity uses amazon search by default, but that doesnt exist in shell [06:12] Ponch0, if you are behind a NAT'ed router, then you don't really need any security apps [06:12] if your machine is connected directly to the internet, then yes run a firewall [06:13] ufw should be fine [06:18] 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] that [06:18] their website http://www.sharktech.net/ [06:22] is your machine connected directly to the internet? or via a router [06:23] router. [06:24] so a ddos would take down your router pretty quickly, but wont affect your computer unless you have DMZ or uPnp enabled [06:25] but even still consumer routers don't really handle lots of connections well, so it will most likely just crash [06:25] 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 [06:26] Ponch0, possibly they had ads somehwere? [06:26] aah friggin ads! [06:26] that's right! [06:26] I have adblock on mozilla [06:28] i'm paranoid lol thanks for dealing with me [06:31] have a good night/day [08:12] ricotz, changed your mind on spidermonkey in the ppa yet? [08:19] we have an official js17 tarball and a stable gjs-js17 branch ;) [08:39] 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 [18:06] Empathy works for somebody ?
