sudormrfluca, sounds like the version of linux you are trying to install won't work with your CPU00:02
funkyhehe00:02
sudormrfluca, meaning, your CPU may not support 64bit architecture but you are trying to install a 64 bit OS00:02

jhutchinssudormrf: gmail is pretty much the best game around.00:02
lucasudormrf, yes I was running it on virtualbox. It is Xubuntu 13.10. Maybe the proble, is PAE flag00:02

Jeruvyfunky sed/awk are worth investigating.00:03
jhutchinssudormrf: Some of the domain registrars will include or sell you email services as well.  That takes care of the address change.00:03
funkywhich one is easier?00:03
sudormrfjhutchins, I would prefer not to have all of my emails scanned so they can target ads.00:03
StonegateHi Everyone00:03
sudormrfluca, depends on your vbox settings and your host computer.00:03

Stonegatei have a small problem.. i just updated my kernel on a box and now it cant start the ETH0 network device anymore.. can anyone assist me to get the box online again ? i think it might be something udev or kernel related but i cannot find out what it is.00:04
funkyis there just simple command to do it?00:04
lucasudormr, really? doesn't depend on my CPU??00:04
funkylike grep is to find string00:04
funkybut to replace it after?00:04
sudormrfluca, it does, thats why I said your vbox settings AND your host00:05
luc_anyone knows the on demand service?00:05

funkysed -i 's/old-word/new-word/g' *.txt will that do resursive replacement?00:06
funkyamazon cloud00:06
funkyso nice00:06
sudormrfluca, I don't know who "they" are.  You need to know about your host.  does it have a CPU that can support 64 architecture? is it an ARM CPU? etc.  start there.  once you know that you should be able to figure out which CD to download to get your VM setup.00:07
luc_<funky> do you know onDemand service?? is about cpu scaling...00:07

Stonegatecan anyone help me with my box missing its ETH0 Device after Kernel Upgrade ?00:08
sudonooobbThe program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils00:09
luc_<funky> a service running on my ubuntu, called onDemando00:09
luc_<funky> onDemand00:09
sudormrfluca, look for something called "details" or "system details" to see it graphically.  more /proc/cpuinfo from CLI.00:10
K`zanHi folks,  Got a problem with having 4 sound devices,  seems that various things use different ones.  I have PulseAudio, HDA ATI SB, USB Device 0x46d: 0x81d and HDA Nvidia.  lsusb shows nothing with the USB device ID.   What do I do to narrow it down to one only (I *think* I want just the PulseAudio, even if its mixer has very few options?)00:11
K`zanCorrection, I think the one I want is HDA ATI SB...00:12
nevynK`zan: no you want pulseaudio00:13
luca   sudormrf, it's a CPU 1,50 GHz00:14
K`zannevyn: Only one control listed on that, capture for input and master for output.  Lots more inputs and outputs on the back of the box?!?00:15
jhutchinsluca: That tells us almost nothing.00:15
jhutchinsluca: Intel?  Amd?  Arm?  32b? 64b?00:15
K`zannevyn: Also, it seems that different programs use different device, turn off all sound and I still get various things making noise.00:16
nevynso those apps are misconfigured.00:16
lucajhutchins, Intel00:16
K`zannevyn: If so they are not configurable, apparently they take whatever they find ?first?00:17
nevynK`zan: apps should always talk to  pulse using libpulse or the alsa pulse pcm  if they don't need/want direct pulse graph awareness00:17
lucajhutchins, address sizes: 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual00:17
nevynK`zan: which app are you speaking of?00:18
K`zannevyn: I'm about to disable the MB audio and put in an old SB card.00:18
Bashing-omsudormrf: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils <- do it.00:18
nevynso if you turn off all sound?  what still makes noise?00:18
nevynK`zan: have you messed with alsa control files?00:18
Bashing-omsudormrf: Soory apologize00:19
K`zannevyn: Some of the KDE4 apps still make noise (no option to disable sound in the app).  Some of the add-ins for X-Plane also override the "all sound off too".00:19
K`zannevyn: No Sir, stock out of the box 12.04 and TDE00:19
Bashing-omsudonooobb: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils <- do it.00:20
nevynwhen you say all sound off how are you setting that?00:20
sudonoobBashing-om: installed the mesa-tuls and when i run the /var/log I get access denied00:20
K`zannevyn: Control panel.  Start-> system settings -> notifications and sound system.00:21
nevynhrm00:22
nevyndo you have a volume control widget?00:22
TJ-sudonoob: "DISPLAY=:0.0 glxinfo | pastebinit"00:22
K`zannevyn: Sound system unchecked and all greyed out.   Notifications, quick controls, turn off all sounds.00:23
StonegateHey guys! i have a small problem.. i just updated my kernel on a box and now it cant start the ETH0 network device anymore.. it says: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device eth000:23
sudonooobbTJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6829303/00:23
K`zannevyn: Yes, kmix with 4 sound devices to choose from, mixer defaults to PulseAudio.00:23
gustavohow to run command linux in computer remote ?00:24
geniigustavo: You mean ssh?00:25
K`zannevyn: PulseAudio gives me no control over anything but Master output and Capture input.  The HDA ATI SB seems to have all the various inputs and outputs.00:25
TJ-sudonoob: I was expecting to see more, maybe we need a slightly different command: "glxinfo | pastebinit"00:25
geniigustavo: Like, you want to type in commands at a remote computer from the computer you are at right now?00:25
nevynK`zan: life is slithely more naunced than that.00:25
sudormrfluca, that doesn't answer the question.  pastebin it.  http://paste.ubuntu.com00:26
sudormrfluca, pastebin the output of the command00:26
sudonooobbTJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6829314/00:26
nevynK`zan: What are you trying to do exactly?00:26
TJ-sudonoob: Bashing-om: To me, that output looks like its missing significant bits, which suggests no OpenGL driver, but I don't have Intel hardware available to test against right now00:27
sudonooobbTJ: I also set Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig00:27
sh0tragazzi come faccio a disabilitare una certa interfaccia di rete? Vorrei che al boot non venga attivata.00:28
K`zannevyn: :-), yes it is, trying to get control over sound, rather than it being (apparently?!?) scattered over various devices (I *assume* that is what is going on, google was no help at all.  And yes, I am surely confused.  The old SB Live card in the drawer is looking better and better :-).00:28
gustavogenii, Yes00:28
nevynadding more sound devices will make this worse not better.00:28
sasha|O hai, I have an issue with my keyboard and trackpad00:29
sasha|After booting, the keyboard responds very poorly, and the trackpad doesn't wor00:29
nevynconfiguring pulseaudio correctly will let you do what you want and flexibly move things between devices if required.00:29
nevynK`zan: ^^00:29
sasha|*work. To fix this, I have to manualy disable and enable them through a script. I'd like to find out why this is happening and fix it in the future.00:29
K`zannevyn: I can disable onboard sound in  BIOS, that is what lead me to think about the SB card after frustrating hours of googling :-).00:29
sasha|Here's a video that shows what happens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXd8AWiXLdw00:29
geniigustavo: Yes, so then the usual tool in Linux is ssh. The machine you want to reach runs the ssh server part, and then you use the ssh client part to connect to it, either by it's IP or by it's domain-name00:29
sh0tmagari basta un ifconfig down in qualche script iniziale?00:29
sh0to sorry this is in english ahah :)00:30
nevynK`zan: it really won't help your problem00:30
K`zannevyn: Lemme google setting up pulseaudio and see if I can work it out from that.  Thanks for cutting down on my confusion with all the devices :).00:30
nevynK`zan: assuming you want normal things (skype/voip/mumble audio in a headset and ring on speakers etc) pa is the way to go00:31
sh0tGuys oh can I disable a net interface? I don't want it to be enabled at the boot. Is there a more elegant solution than an ifconfig down in an initial script?00:31
nevynK`zan: it is very very powerful.00:31
sh0t*how00:31
K`zannevyn: Good, my roomie also has the same problem, can't get mic input to work for Skype, been pulling my hair out with that one too...00:31
fishcookeris it possible to configure wlan0 automatically dhcp00:32
fishcooker?00:32
K`zannevyn: Thanks so much!!!!!  Hopefully I can find the answer on how to do that :-).00:32
nevynso linux audio needs a good blog post I've been meaning to write for some time.00:32
nevynbut the layers are something likethis:00:32
fishcookeri've followed this http://prupert.wordpress.com/2010/06/25/how-to-configure-wireless-wifi-networking-in-ubuntu-via-the-command-line-cli/00:32
K`zannevyn: It would certainly help, sound has always been problematical / confusing.  Worse now with the myriad of sources on the newer MBs.00:33
nevynK`zan: the first thing to understand is that alsa. means about 4 things.00:33
gustavogenial, genial, I'm giving support to an user noob in Linux. It not know run commands linux. I need run the commands linux for him through remote.00:33
fishcookerbut no luck.. is it problem when i set wpa-proto to RSN rather than WPA00:33
nevynDrivers, the userspace library and the api interface for talking to a pcm.00:33
K`zannevyn: ALSA and PA?  Uhhh, arghhhhh :)00:33
nevynso PA is really a missing component of ALSA00:34
nevynit replaces (mostly) the userspace library with something much more capable.00:34
TJ-sh0t: Yes, simply set it to "manual" in "/etc/network/interfaces" or, if it is managed by Network-Manager, disable the auto-connect option00:34
nevynand provides a pcm  for apps to talk to which get's audio intopulse from apps that don't know about it.00:35
nevynso. Apps do not need to know about pulse to use it. if your alsa is configured correctly (default.!pcm = pulse)00:35
K`zannevyn: Does that mean that I need to install ALSA packages (alsa-base, alsa utils)?00:35
Jordan_Ugustavo: What is your native language? You may find it easier to get support in one of the Ubuntu IRC channels in your language.00:36
nevynno.00:36
ezrhinohello. I see my video driver is now something called nvidia_331. is this downgraded?00:36
markovirc_Hello ezrhino00:36
nevynalsa-base is the alsa userspace libraries.00:36
sh0tTJ-, it is managed by Netork Manager by i don't want that so i just add manual to /etc/network/interfaces and networkmanager should ignore it right?00:36

syntroPiWen using a laptop with 13.10 x64 do i really need a separate swap partition for standby working or can i also put the swapfile on the systempartiton too?01:23
hitsujiTMONorith: use the trust one. its only a name01:23
hitsujiTMONorith: do you have a good reason to use 3.13?01:23
ryanwsyntroPi: I don't think there is a swapfile, just a swap partition.01:23
ryanwBeen a while since I messed with that stuff though01:24
NorithhitsujiTMO: Well, I'm having some issues with the Intel 7260 Wifi adapter in my y410 Lenovo laptop.  The -7 firmware that works with 3.10 isn't fixing the issue, so i wanted to try the next revision against 3.1301:24
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: a swap partition is preffered over a swap file.01:24
syntroPiryanw, hitsujiTMO its possible to make a swapfile on system (eg ext4 fs) and) and mount it via fstab, im just not sure if standby works with that. the reason is i need mbr with 1 efi-boot, 1 linux-sys, 1 linux-home and one windows-sys primary partition, so none is left for swap. Any suggestions for such a setup?01:26
liaisewho wants to take me to a truck stop and fuck me in a McDonald's bathroom jackhammer style on top of the baby changing station?01:26
NorithsyntroPi: swap and home can be extended partitions01:27
NorithsyntroPi: or use LVMs for your linux partitions01:28
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: if you're using uefi then you have a gpt patition layout which has a limit of 128 partitions, not 401:28
syntroPiNorith, hmm might me a good choice, when requiring one uefi-boot fat32 and one windows-sys primary mbr partition how would you recommend to install the linux so standby and swap is working for it?01:30
syntroPihitsujiTMO, yes with gpt it would be like this, but i really need mbr layout for that windows-sys01:30
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: then you don't need an efi partition01:31
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm but if i want to boot in efi mode wouldnt i need efi partition for that then?01:31
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: you CANNOT boot uefi on an mbr partition. mbr is for BIOS, gpt is for UEFI01:32
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: you must have both OS's installed as either uefi, or bios mode.01:33
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: why do you need mbr for windows?01:33
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm but i already did install ubuntu in uefi mode on mbr setup i just now need to add one windows-sys01:33
syntroPihitsujiTMO, there is one "special" reason for this, believe me ;-)01:34
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: you'll break the partition table for ubuntu if you try to install windows in mbr. why not install it in uefi mode?01:35
syntroPihitsujiTMO, yes uefi mode both for linux and windows on mbr01:36
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: are you on the ubuntu on that machine now?01:36
syntroPiso i need one uefi-boot, one linux-sys, one linux-home and one windows-sys01:36

syntroPihitsujiTMO, here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/6829588/01:40
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: and thats with ubuntu installed and booting in uefi?01:41
syntroPihitsujiTMO, yes it is (uefi, sys, swp, home) here is complete output of it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6829591/   though right now im on livecd01:42
qwebirc759393hitsujiTMO - If I close the lid the screen goes black and I could not get my screen to come back on.  I tried every keyboard shortcut I could think of and nothing worked.  So I had to reboot and here I am.01:44
k_sze[work]Hello01:46
markovirc_Hello k_sze[work]01:46
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm maybe i should use something like {uefi-boot/fat32, linux-lvm for sys and home, swap, windows-sys}... Is such a layout possible for uefi?01:46
k_sze[work]oops, wrong channel01:46
gr33n7007hbot alert01:46
qwebirc759393If I am logged into KDE/Openbox from Ubuntu 12.04, close the lid and reopen the lid, the screen stays black.  I want to know how to fix this so it does not happen the next time.01:47
rwwgr33n7007h: hrm?01:47
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: it is. but your /dev/sda1 isn't an efi system partition btw01:48
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm well it boots in uefi mode from this.01:49
gr33n7007hrww, nothing01:49
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: actually sorry, the windows partition cannot go onto an LVM. it needs to be on a pri partition. the rest can go on tho. but an extended partition would be better01:52
qwebirc759393hitsujiTMO - yes.01:53
glitsj16qwebirc759393: how did you configure your power settings? there should be something related to what you want to happen on lid close .. and i think you just needed to press the power button to bring the screen back (never used KDE so wording might differ)01:55
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm i am not too familiar with lvm, but isnt it just a subdivision of a mbr primary partition? if so i would just want to use it for linux-sys and linux-home and all the others primary mbr's. if thats possible at all01:55
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: no, thats extended partition. lvm is a whole different ballgame. its a partition in itself, that has some advanced features that you'll prob never use01:56
syntroPihitsujiTMO, are you sure a mixed lvm/mbr setup is not possible (as i said im not familiar with lvm)01:58
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: you can use lvm, just not with windows tho.01:59
syntroPihitsujiTMO, so its either lvm for whole /dev/sda or mbr for the whole disk? i cant use windows mbr and ontop of one mbr a linux lvm to subdivide it in lnx-sys/home?02:00
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: no, gpt all of /dev/sda or mbr /dev/sda02:01
qwebirc759393glitsj16 - my screen power settings seem fine. I have it set to do nothing when the lid is closed.02:02
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: lvm is a partition in itself. that you can put you linux partitions into into, but you need to leave all but /boot out of it02:02
syntroPihitsujiTMO, you mean external /boot and swap and rest of linux in lvm?02:04
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: yup02:04
glitsj16qwebirc759393: perhaps this might help, but like i said .. not sure if this is still the correct info on current KDE --> http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kde-workspace/kcontrol/powerdevil/02:04
syntroPihitsujiTMO, hmm can i combine uefi-boot and /boot in one mbr fat32? how big should /boot be then?02:06
hitsujiTMOsyntroPi: no. /boot must be a linux file system. 200mb+ is good02:07

hitsujiTMOmaujhsn: you need to upgrade to 12.04. 10.04 is not supported03:02
lacrymologydaftykins: it says "wireless power saving for interface wlan0", "Autosuspend for USB device foo", etc03:03
daftykinslacrymology: but yeah basically it sounds like there's on-die graphics with the CPU as well as graphics with the discrete, so you may want to look into whether that can be setup and either utilised/disabled03:04
maujhsnhitsujiTMO  If I don't upgrade to 12.04 than its probably best to leave vlc alone right?03:05

stuppyhello - I have a question about ssh. I disabled passwd auth and root login and added my user and public key. Can login fine, but a bit too fine. I am wondering if ubuntu might be caching my key or something because the server is not prompting me for a password now when I ssh user@ip or ssh <Host from ~/.ssh/config> even if I comment out the relevant  config section. BUT, on a different computer runnng a live session, I am seeing05:19
stuppy permission denied (publickey). so I bevlive it's secure, but am curious why no denial on my original comp. Any insight would be appreciated. thanks.05:19
Lognicbashing om: yep, P4 processor05:19
DiplomaticoThank you a lot Hatsu!05:19
hitsujiTMOstuppy: key auth is instead of password auth so that sounds fine. did you restart the ssh daemon after changing the configs?05:21
Bashing-omLognic: Is this the flagship ubuntu distribution that you are attempting to install ?, Lubuntu will be a much better option on a p4 .05:21
stuppy@VossArtesian, is there not an option to use entire disc? That's usually an option and that seems like what you were looking for. The other non-manual option would be side-by-side, which would be dual boot.05:21
stuppy@hitsujiTMO. yes, 2x sudo service ssh reload05:22
Lognicbashing-om: the ubuntu from the website05:22
VossArtesianstuppy: there is an option to erase everything and install, but after choosing that it gives me 2 partitions to choose from05:23
stuppy@hitsujiTMO - same with sudo service ssh restart as reload05:23
Adrian0079i have a PC with dual monitor(one DVI and Display Port) , but one of it ( on Display Port ) don't come up , any fix to that? ATI HD7650 / ubuntu 13.10, also i can see both monitors on ubuntu "Display" setting .05:23

=== joe_____1 is now known as jdenniss
hitsujiTMOstuppy: are you editing ~/.ssh/config on the server?05:26
stuppy@VossArtesian - you can also choose the manual method, and delete the partitions, create one full-disc partition, and then install.05:27
Bashing-omLognic: I know by now you are frustrated as well as aggravated, we will get through this, Take a bit of time to read up: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE .05:28
stuppy@<VossArtesian> just back-up to where you chose entire-disk and find the manual option.05:28
VossArtesianstuppy: im starting to think im an idiot and theres actually 2 drives inside the machine, because removing the partition does nothing but create seperate free spaces05:29
=== flos is now known as flos|lunch
hitsujiTMOstuppy: theres no denial on the original as it has your pub key05:29
stuppy@hitsujiTMO no. editing local ~/.ssh/config and remote ~/.ssh/authorized_keys05:30
DiplomaticoVossArtesian, I think that the two partitions you are looking at are the MBR and the C: The first is used by the system.05:31
stuppy @hitsujiTMO - how would it know where to find my key after I comment out that section of the .ssh/config? I'm not using the stadard id_rsa file for that server either, so it should need to know which file to find it in I would think.05:32

VossArtesianDiplomatico: c drive has windows and is about 4gb, d drive is about 8.5 gb05:34
DiplomaticoOk, I 'm no pro, but I can remember when i installed ubuntu is that just drag the edges of the partition editor and you'll get the partition you want.05:34
stuppy@hitsujiTMO - is ssh-agent used by default on ubuntu desktop and/or server. it's installed by default.05:35
stuppy@hitsujiTMO I am not invoking it explicitly05:35
hitsujiTMOstuppy: its not used by default.i'd assume that since you are using such a config it may be getting invoked and caching the key. have you tried uncommenting and then rebooting?05:36
VossArtesianDiplomatico: ok, thanks  im just giving up for now because the install failed twice once on each partition05:36
mssmsshitsujiTMO: my internet connection is iffy ... Update is stuck at "Applying Changes" ...I'll try again latr and let you know .. thanks ...05:40
stuppy @hitsujiTMO - do you think it's a local or remote thing? I have not rebooted. I wanted to get it all squared before rebooting to avoid getting locked out.05:40
hitsujiTMOstuppy: i mean rebooting the client05:42
stuppy@hitsujiTMO - screw it - caution to the wind. rebooting.05:42

Bashing-omk3pl3r16: I personally prefer AMD, Little guys had to work harder, Good products to get where they are now.06:32

k3pl3r16Bashing-om, I'm a cheap bas$*rd06:33
k3pl3r16Bashing-om, lol06:33
hitsujiTMOstuppy: ok, so maybe the config is ignoreing the "#"'s ?06:33
Bashing-omk3pl3r16: careful, my better half reserves the term for me .06:38
stuppy@HitsujiTMO - wow. I have 7 entries in config, all grouped by commented sections. It would have to not be phased  by any of the non-matching syntax that my descriptive comments are using then.06:42
stuppy@HitsujiTMO - I don't think it can ignore the '#'s -  while $shh user@ip connects, $shh host(from config file) hangs when it's #ed. somehow, it knows where to look independent of config.06:47

LaykeI have [ MONITOR 1][MONITOR 2] If I move my mouse from right to left, once it passes between one monitor, it wraps over and goes to the outter edge of the opposite monitor09:57
LaykeHow can I stop this? It's really frustrating. I'm sure it's a feature somewhere..09:58
k1lLayke: do they have the same resolution? and what ubuntu and what desktop do you use?09:58
Layke12.04 LTS. Yeah, identical monitors09:59
LaykeOddly, just launched nvidia-settings, and it says: The NVIDIA X driver on Layke:0.0 is not new enough to support the nvidia-settings Display Configuration page.10:00
LaykeNever seen that before. I'll have to run now. I'll try and reinstall with nvidia 304 when I get back10:00
LaykeAndthen I'll see what the mouse skipping from one desktop to another issue could be10:01

PiNinjaRonie1: I'll try mplayer.11:05

LaykeSomeone posted saying: (settings>window manager>advanced>wrap workspaces12:45
iptablerepozitor: please do ls -l /bin/ping12:45
LaykeI am on 12.04 LTS.12:45
Ben64iptable: ah, you've solved it, it's suid for some reason12:45
iptableBen64: I was suspecting that. But for some reason the binary is suid here as well, but the iptables rule does stop it. go figure ...12:46

Ben64that will stop everyone but root from using ping, which is what he wants, so... yeah12:47
=== rickyb98 is now known as RickyB98
repozitorsetting pollicy for running ping or not, isn't a good way!12:47
iptableBen64: yeah, pretty much.12:47
repozitorprobably there are a better way to do that12:47
Ben64well what you want to do is strange :)12:48
iptablerepozitor: what Ben64 said12:48
repozitorblocking network activity is prettier than blocking ping command12:48
iptablerepozitor: why you want root to ping and non-root not to ping?12:48
Ben64the iptables command should block everything else that isn't suid12:48
repozitoriptable, why iptablee do what you want exactly, but don't for me?12:48
Ben64iptable must have a different setup, maybe selinux or something like that12:49
repozitoriptable, did you ever block network traffic for sample user by iptables?12:50
iptableBen64: standard install only. weird, no? works on 13.10 and 14.04 100%. that's how I limit my kids...12:50
Ben64well i'm on 12.0412:50
repozitoriptable, i'm on 12.04!12:50
iptablerepozitor: yes. for my kids. iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 1001 -j REJECT blocks all internet traffic for user 1001.12:50
iptablerepozitor: on 12.04 for some reason ping seems to run fully as root, which means that this block will not affect ping. ping auto-runs as UID 0 :/.12:51
iptablerepozitor: ping on later versions seems to work correctly, i.e. uses root privileges to only gain access to open icmp socket, but executes itself as UID user.12:52
iptablerepozitor: so use that rule to block everything apart from the command ping (the rule will also block icmp and ping for normal users, just not the single command PING), and remove suid from ping to fix that.12:53
iptablerepozitor: I still don't know what is the end result you are trying to achieve...12:53
iptableBen64: on my 12.04, I don't have suid on ping, but then again, I don't execute ping as non-root haha. box is purely for pppd anyways.12:53
=== RickyB98 is now known as rickyb98
lixis it possible the last update creates a locale error? - is there a fix somewhere?12:55
lixI get the following error: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory12:55
iptablerepozitor: although I don't see a reason why you would want to allow SSH to a box and disallow any outgoing network connections from that box alone and only for certain users. so your request is a bit odd.12:55
iptablerepozitor: and once again: PING is NOT a hacker tool...12:56
repozitoriptable, seems ubuntu is buggy, because when i use12:56
repozitoriptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 1001 -j REJECT12:56
repozitorbefore this command both hosnames and ip's can be pined from user112:56
repozitorbut after this command just ip's can be pinged from user112:56
iptablerepozitor: that is not a bug12:56
repozitoriptable, that is bug, be sure12:56
iptablerepozitor: after this command, DNS requests no longer work. you have blocked outgoing connections, so DNS lookups do not work here12:56
jpdsiptable: Yo12:57
iptablejpds: yo12:57
repozitoriptable, after this command all of udp and tcp connection will be cloes?12:57
iptablerepozitor: so that IS per design and configuration. it is not a bug.12:57
repozitori want something like this,12:57
iptablerepozitor: yes. all tcp and udp OUTBOUND connections will be stopped. that's what you have requested originally.12:58
iptablerepozitor: only. ping tool has suid on it, so it can run itself as root, going around that rule. that's why you can still ping IPs. remove suid from ping command, problem solved.12:59
repozitoriptable, in addition if iptables block icmp pings, i hit to my end12:59
iptablerepozitor: iptables DOES block icmp for the user you specified, but the PING command is set to execute as root, using a special "suid" flag, no matter what user executes it. Remove that flag from ping and problem is solved.12:59
repozitoriptable, and i should do this for 1000 command, that isn't bad idea :D13:00
iptablerepozitor: 1000 command?13:00

iptableooh, wait. I *might* hae a modifier flag for ping13:01
repozitorhow do you put / as first character msg on channel?13:01
iptablerepozitor: here: sudo chmod 4755 /bin/ping13:02
iptablerepozitor: I normally put a space as first character, then /13:02
iptable /like this13:02
repozitorinserting a space before /?13:03
repozitor /bin/bash13:03
repozitoryes, works fine13:03
repozitorthis answer is better than your iptables answer :D13:03
nisimdownloaded ubuntu 12.04 to philips freevents x56 no audio driverplease help13:03
iptablerepozitor: so the iptables block rule with UIDs (the full block rule). it blocks icmp as well. THEN to fix ping, execute: sudo chmod 4755 /bin/ping - and ping will work as expected too13:03
iptablerepozitor: now you are being rude. my iptabes one does work well and does what you want it to13:04
repozitoriptable, takes it easy, i'm joking, if you don't like, so i will stop it :)13:04
repozitoriptable, which ubuntu version?13:05
iptablerepozitor: and I even found a full workaround now which works. iptables block rule + chmod 4755 /bin/ping - all OUTGOING connections will not be stopped on 12.0413:05
nisim12.04 ls13:05
iptablerepozitor: I got 14.04, 13.10, 12.04, depends where.13:05
repozitoras you know, i add my user in that way13:06
repozitorcan they change/modify other files instead of their home?13:06
iptableBen64: found the difference. seens chmod 4755 /bin/ping makes ping works as expected while the '+s' makes it run as root to end.13:06
repozitori want all limited users, just can read/write to their home, now writing to somewhere esle.13:07
repozitornot*13:07
iptablerepozitor: users can modify any files which they have permissions to modify. So any file with the user's owner/group and write permissions for owner/group. also any file with write permissions to "other"13:07
Bo1ais dropbox a good choice for linux/ubuntu or is there something else more suitable?13:07
ActionParsnipBo1a: its fine, does what it says on the tin13:07
repozitorok, got it13:07
k1lBo1a: dropbox runs fine. so does ubuntu one13:07
iptablerepozitor: what you are looking for is a chroot environment for users. what DO you want users to be able to do?13:07
ActionParsnipBo1a: we can't possibly comment on 'suitable' as there is no details13:07
ActionParsnipBo1a: suitable for what exactly?13:08
cfhowlettBo1a, ^^^ well said13:08
repozitoriptable, just writing c ource code, and then run them, JUST THIS13:08
repozitorc source*13:08
repozitorc, sometimes assembly code13:08
iptablerepozitor: so you want users to be able to write code in c/assembly and compile it in gcc and run it.13:08
repozitoryes13:08
Bo1aActionParsnip: just for basic use, I meant 'suitable' for linux13:09
iptablerepozitor: a development box... normally, you would let them write C code on their machines, in their favourite environment (like eclipse), and commit the code to the box only. not code using vim on that box...13:09
iptablerepozitor: but if that is your preferred choice, are the users supposed to share some code?13:10
ActionParsnipBo1a: yes, there is the package nautilus-dropbox and will give dropbox functionality13:10
Bo1aActionParsnip: ok, thank you13:10
ActionParsnipBo1a: saying 'suitable' doesnt tellus anything13:10
iptablerepozitor: if not, look at debootstrap and chroot or even at lxc. that would isolate users nicely (even if not foul-proof)13:10
ActionParsnipBo1a: there is a client, so it will work. That has nothing to do with suitability13:10
ActionParsnipBo1a: some people dont like dropbox as the transfer between systems is not secured13:10
ActionParsnipBo1a: but you havent said anything like that...so we cannoy comment13:11
repozitoriptable, i need to keep their code, all of the users code is same as to each other.13:11
repozitordunno what is debootstrap13:11
repozitoriptable, they write same code, this is not a big projects to use svn or ..13:12
iptableBola: or use mega.co.nz with megatools if you prefer. it's apparently safe. apparently.13:12
Bo1aActionParsnip: are there any cross platform (win/lin) that has secure transfers and works like dropbox?13:13
Bo1aiptable: I will take a look13:13
iptablerepozitor: so you want them all to write code for the same application? that means they will at least need to have access to each-other's files13:13
ActionParsnipBo1a: ubuntuone is not bad, there are a few. Dropbox is probably easier if you have the system already setup13:14
repozitoriptable, they can't read the other users files13:14
iptablerepozitor: it's a dirty way to do things, but yeah. iptables block + the chmod on ping should be sufficient for you. if you got a malicious developer anyways, that linux box is the least of your worries...13:14
Bo1aActionParsnip: yes I already use it between 3 pc's and phones, so dropbox it is13:15
iptablerepozitor: look at debootstrap and chroot or at LXC anyways. could be good for you. http://glonek.co.uk/tips-tricks/ubuntu-debootstrap-and-chroot/ - you could chroot users when they ssh in and remove any tools you don't want them to run from the chroot altogether.13:15

repozitor1hhhm, fine13:18
repozitoriptable, final question is13:23
repozitorhow to set iptable with this rules for always?13:23
repozitori think, but shutting dowb ubuntu, this rules will cleared, right?13:24
iptablerepozitor: first: iptables-save > /etc/iptables.rules13:24
repozitoriptable, so iptables read iptables.rules at startup?13:25
iptablerepozitor: no. then: put a script in /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/ - call it iptables.load or something. make it executable13:25
iptablerepozitor: in the script #!/bin/bash \\ /sbin/iptables-restore /etc/iptables.rules13:25
iptablerepozitor: replace \\ with line feed13:25
repozitor*don't understand last line*13:27
iptablerepozitor: you do know line feed right? the enter key13:27
repozitorno13:27
repozitor#!/bin/bash13:28
iptablerepozitor: you do press ENTER when you send in IRC. that is line feed13:28
repozitorno no13:28
iptablerepozitor: yes, that was first line. and put the restore bit in the second line13:28
repozitorwhich where i should put this line?13:29
repozitor/etc/iptables.rules13:29
repozitorin .bash?13:29
repozitor /home/user1/.bash?13:29
iptablerepozitor: no!!!! as I said, in /etc/network/if... just wait...13:30
repozitorlol13:30
iptablerepozitor: run this as root: echo -e '#!/bin/bash\n/sbin/iptables-restore /etc/iptables.rules' > /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/iptables.load; chmod 755 /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/iptables.load; iptables-save > /etc/iptables.rules13:31
iptablerepozitor: that will do it all for you. But I do suggest you try to learn linux.13:31

iptableI did not mention book...13:32
repozitorneeding a good and summry13:32

iptablerepozitor: google for some tutorials and guides and look at man pages for things13:32
iptablerepozitor: man ping; man iptables; etc...13:32
* cfhowlett likes "linux for Dummies" ...13:32
repozitoriptable, ok, i will do as your suggestion.13:33
iptablerepozitor: I have written a very old and outdated guide on setting up a linux server, but you need to get familiar with the general terms first. here is it nevertheless (a bit buggy for today's setups and may contain stuff that could be done better, but hey. live and learn). http://glonek.co.uk/old-site/my_work.php13:34

longshorejI have autofs setup and integrated with LDAP. If the LDAP server is down when I bring another machine up, the only way to get the machine's autofs to work is to restart the autofs service after the LDAP server comes online. Ideally it would be able to attempt to communicate with the LDAP server on its own without having to intervene. Any ideas if that sort of configuration is possible?15:52

Picilongshorej: I can't really provide details, but I was looking at an LDAP problem here recently and ran across nscd, which might help in your case. If anything, it might be enough to point you in the right direction: https://wiki.debian.org/LDAP/NSS15:55

Walexreko888_: your questions on best size for websites has two different aspects to it...16:18
Walexreko888_: one is about the *optical* property of the site's text. You should aim at making it look good at the size in which it looks best.16:19
reko888_ok16:20
Walexreko888_: the other however is that most modern browsers finally can resize windows and scale graphical elements, so the second goal should be to make it look not bad no matter how it gets resized and scaled.16:20
Walexreko888_: this is important because nearly or even more than half of site viewers use tablets with screens very, very different from those of desktops.16:21
Walexreko888_: so for example all those iPad users with a Retina display will have the site rescaled  in Portrait mode and wider than 960px etc.16:22

imuserGuys, I have Lubuntu 13.10 on an old desktop, and I like that it is faster than Ubuntu 12.04, BUT, I would like to download an older Adobe Flash Player being the online videos, like YouTube and Wimp.com don't work good. The reason I think the older version of flash will work is that I tried it with a puppy I had on a flash stick and it works with the older flash player. So, how would I get an older one installed on Lubuntu 13.10?16:54
imuserI mean the puppy was on a usb flash stick, sorry.16:54
ActionPa1snipimuser: you'll need it if your CPU is older16:55

jhutchinsimuser: I17:11
TJ-lucasrangit: On the ISO itself, ".disk/info" ... not sure about within the running environment17:11
jhutchinsimuser: I'm pretty sure that flash player is a single binary file.  Figure out where it is and copy the binary from puppy to your Ubuntu installation.17:12
ActionPa1snipimuser: sse2 is not a linux specific thing17:13
ActionPa1snipimuser: its a feature in your CPU, or in your case, lacking17:13

TJ-Brutus|: If you've reformatted /dev/sdb1 you can add it to "/etc/fstab" like this: "  echo "UUID=$(blkid -o value -s UUID /dev/sdb1) /mnt/disk ext4 defaults 0 2" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab  "18:10

godmachine81i'm a pretty experienced linux user, but not so much with ubuntu.  i just upgraded a distro manually but now everytime i try to add new PPA's they automatically use the release name from the previous version installed18:28

JensorHello, I'm really new to Linux and I'm exploring my way around. I have on my system a couple of kernel-version directory's, can I just remove them or will it stop me from booting up again (or will some programs depend on that "older" kernel version folder)? Any information where I can learn/read more about this? Thanks in advance.21:04
Ben64cnodell: no real way to check, but firefox is likely the only thing21:05
k1l_Jensor: folders? if you want to remove old kernels remove the old kernel packages21:06
cnodellthanks!21:06
Jensork1l_, I probably mistyped, the items under /usr/src/*21:07
cnodellAnother Question: How reliable are upgrades from one version of Ubuntu to the next? Would removing, adding and changing applications affect chances of success?21:07
Ben64Jensor: the general rule is - don't delete anything not in your home directory21:08
[[a]hello, my mouse right-click is not working anymore; any help plz21:08

cnodellI am trying to decide on a distro recommendation for a friend new to linux. Mint and Ubuntu were forerunners. When I looked up upgrades for Mint their documentation suggested always doing fresh installs and data backups. Kind of surprised me. With Mint being based on Ubuntu I began wondering if Ubuntu was also so finiky regarding upgrades.21:11
k1l_cnodell: upgrades are fine. but backups are always suggested just for murphys law21:11
k1l_(which is: murphy will know when you dont have backups and will sabotage your system ;p )21:12
geniicnodell: It is always recommended to back up your data of course. But upgrades are fairly painless.21:12
Ben64cnodell: one thing you could do is use the LTS releases, only have to upgrade versions once every 2 years, instead of every 6 months21:13

saiarcot895imuser: Lubuntu is really meant for low-RAM systems, so you can't get too much lower22:01
zerowaitstateyeah, I was just mentioning that. I realized that Lubuntu was the LXDE flavor22:02
hewhomustcrunchbang lol22:07
zerowaitstateimuser: you are riding pretty close to the minimum requirements for lubuntu. You may take a look at PuppyLinux.22:08
zerowaitstateimuser: basically, once you get down to RAM sizes that small, you have to start pulling features out to stay within the RAM footprint22:09

The_Woodsmani've got some files on my laptop i want to get on my desktop, and i also want to learn how to use sftp. how do i find out all the parameters and stuff i need to connect to my desktop from my laptop using sftp?22:23
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: scp files username@remotehost:/new/location22:23
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: man scp or sftp will give you information on the parameters22:23
=== sysadmin is now known as VLanX
The_Woodsmanikonia: yeah okay so i looked up my ip address and i know the user names and passwords and everything, but i was not able to connect to my desktop - is the ip address not the remotehost22:24
ikoniathe ip address is an acceptable remote host22:24
The_Woodsmanikonia: so for whatever reason i could not connect using the ip address, even though i opened the SFTP port22:25
The_Woodsmanikonia: and the sftp port, does scp work on that port also?22:25
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: could be many reasons, show me the command you are using22:25
The_Woodsmanikonia: sure, one sec22:25
The_Woodsmanikonia: scp "testfile" username@ipaddress   - i did not give it a path after that so maybe that is why it's messed up22:26
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: yes, you did not use the example I gave you22:27
=== Pebbe is now known as Pebbe|Away

The_Woodsmanikonia: the connection timed out when i used  scp "testfile" username@ipaddress:C/  - did i screw up the syntax or is there possibly a deeper issue22:32
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: there is no such thing as c:\ on a windows host22:33
ikoniasorry on a linux host22:33
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: are you trying to move files from linux to a windows host ?22:33
The_Woodsmanikonia: yes22:33
The_Woodsmanikonia: my laptop is on ubuntu, my desktop is on windows22:33
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: ok, so you'll need to use sftp22:33
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: sftp from the linux laptop to the windows desktop, correct ?22:34
ikoniaas in from the linux machine -> files -> windows machine22:34
The_Woodsmanikonia: correct22:34
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: are you running an sftp server on the windows host ?22:34

ikoniaThe_Woodsman: ok, so if you are not running an sftp server on the windows host, what do you expect the linux machine to actually connect to22:39
ikoniaThe_Woodsman: opening a port is great, but if nothing is running/listening on that port, there is nothing for the client to connect to22:39
The_Woodsmanikonia: okay thanks for the help, i'll see if i can figure that part out without bothering you haha22:39
