| aossi | man i wish i didnt upgrade to 12.10 | 08:07 |
| diminoten | :( parted magic is trying to charge me money | 08:08 |
| varunendra | aossi, the ubuntu desktop installer needs ubiquity, and I don't think it'll work from CLI. But I think you can boot the ISO directly from Grub (I'm not yet sure how, but I know it is possible and not difficult). Then you'll have a GUI to work from. | 08:09 |
| Beldar | varunendra, exactly, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot if you could get a cli | 08:10 |
| aossi | k im trying nomodeset one more time | 08:10 |
| Beldar | err they | 08:10 |
| varunendra | aossi, or you can also burn a DVD using commands. | 08:10 |
| varunendra | Beldar, thanks, Time to bookmark that :D | 08:11 |
| aossi | i am at a command prompt after using nomodeset | 08:11 |
| aossi | hold on | 08:11 |
| varunendra | startx? aossi | 08:11 |
| aossi | whats startx??? imma try and terminal command wifi and my nvidia drivers. i got to log in using terminal command so im happy | 08:13 |

| hateball | !someone | memoweb | 08:15 |
| ubottu | memoweb: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 08:15 |
| varunendra | aossi, startx is the command to start Xserver if it initially failed to start for some reason (but is usable). Sometimes works if you get a command line during normal booting. | 08:15 |
| unstable | Do switchable graphics work well on linux? | 08:15 |
| memoweb | Does anyone recomend a good virtual machine to use? | 08:15 |
| unstable | or is it hacky? | 08:16 |
| Beldar | unstable, depends or your definition of hacky, there is bumblebee | 08:16 |
| unstable | Beldar: yea, I think bumblebee has a lot of problem still | 08:16 |
| Beldar | unstable, I know it's used never had the pleasure. | 08:17 |
| varunendra | memoweb, VMware and VirtualBox are obvious recommendations. Do you need help with any of these or just recommendations (for which, this is not the correct place) | 08:17 |

| varunendra | memoweb, please clarify - do you already have Ubuntu running and now you want to install it in VirtualBox also? Or is it VirtualBox itself that you want to install on Ubuntu? I think neither of these relies on commands. | 08:25 |
| neetz | hello , I have the same problem as http://askubuntu.com/questions/23353/ubuntu-boots-into-terminal , but i need some clearifications on the answer | 08:28 |
| neetz | anyone there ? | 08:28 |
| Seveas | neetz: no, we're all on holiday :-) | 08:28 |
| varunendra | ShiftMaster, http://askubuntu.com/questions/160574/stop-ubuntuone-from-autostart | 08:28 |

| neetz | what do i do after entering System > Administration > Disk Utility ? | 08:29 |
| neetz | anyone there ? | 08:31 |
| Seveas | neetz: is the disk full? | 08:31 |
| Seveas | or is it having errors? | 08:31 |
| neetz | Seveas: I dont know , i have to check that .. But what do i do if it has errors ? | 08:32 |
| Seveas | neetz: you click the 'Check Filesystem' button | 08:32 |
| === root_ is now known as Guest65529 | ||
| neetz | Seveas: after that , does it resolve it automatically ? or do i have to type any command , just askin all procedure before i boot into ubuntu .. | 08:33 |
| Seveas | neetz: it will prompt you if it finds errors. Some it can resolve automatically, some it will need guidance on. | 08:34 |
| neetz | Seveas: But why did it happen at the first place , it was all fine | 08:34 |
| Seveas | could be unexpected power loss, or a hard drive that's simply dying (harddrives are unreliable) | 08:35 |
| neetz | Seveas: okay I am able to boot into root shell is there a command to check for errors directly or do i need to boot into a GUI through Live CD | 08:37 |
| Guest65529 | hello | 08:37 |
| Seveas | neetz: I'd suggest a live cd as it's the root volume with problems. Some of the fixes cannot be done if a volume is mounted | 08:37 |

| sorinello | Hello. Are there any known issues with split VPN on Ubuntu 13.10 ? I saw tutorials on how to do this in older version, but doesn't work on my 13.10 version. My problems is that All traffic is routerd through VPN | 08:44 |
| diminoten | hm okay so I just get kicked into some kind of BusyBox command line | 08:45 |
| varunendra | aossi, "im in startx..." do you mean you are in the GUI? | 08:45 |
| diminoten | keeps saying "no init found" | 08:45 |
| lng | Hi! Where can I find Add/Remove? "Install Network Manager Applet through the Add/Remove in the Ubuntu menu." | 08:50 |
| varunendra | lng, where did you get that suggestion? And why do you need it in the first place? NetworkManager applet is installed by default | 08:54 |
| Seveas | lng: don't know where you found that, but the netwrk manager applet is installed by default in Ubuntu. If it somehow disappeared, you can use the software center or apt-get to get it back. | 08:54 |
| aossi | no vera its all command promt i have no desktop its like a fullscreen terminal | 08:54 |
| varunendra | :) | 08:54 |
| aossi | verunendra no i have nothing but terminal. i thought it might be startx lol never used startx | 08:55 |
| varunendra | aossi, startx just attempts to start the GUI, but the Xserver must be running in the background and the graphics driver (even if it is the basic one) must support the display. So if it failed, there is not much we can do about it. | 08:56 |
| aossi | if i can get wifi with this terminal crap then i can get my drivers and have graphics | 08:57 |
| aossi | or at least update and go from there maybe | 08:57 |
| Seveas | varunendra: startx actually starts the X server | 08:58 |
| aossi | x.x | 08:59 |
| Seveas | aossi: so, I missed the start of your discussion. Why are you not using the gui? | 09:00 |
| aossi | cant i tried upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10 and got that black screen crap and then tried nomodeset and now im at a full terminal style screen | 09:01 |
| varunendra | sorry I got disconnected. Did I miss anything? | 09:01 |
| varunendra | <aossi> verunendra no i have nothing but terminal. | 09:01 |
| Seveas | aossi: ooh, so your upgrade is really fscked eh | 09:02 |
| aossi | yea Nd i cant get wifi | 09:02 |
| Seveas | aossi: plug in a wire for now. Wireless in the terminal is a pain | 09:02 |
| jgcampbell300 | I am trying to upgrade my bios on a Dell Precision T7400 work station ... i have found the bin file to use "T7400A11.bin" but when i try to ./T7400A11.bin it says ./flash: not found ... i am at a loss ... could i get a bit of assistance please ? | 09:02 |
| Seveas | wire we can get working with a few commands, then we can work on fixing the system | 09:02 |
| aossi | x.x i cant.....dont have access to this rooms router. i have no choice but to wifi. | 09:03 |
| aossi | im at grub.. had to restart comp | 09:03 |
| Seveas | aossi: well, then you're out of luck until you can plug in a wire | 09:04 |
| varunendra | Seveas, not necessarily if nmcli works :) | 09:04 |
| Seveas | aossi: you can try running a few commands to kick the install further if it's borked in the right place. Try this: sudo apt-get -f install | 09:05 |
| aossi | x.x c'mon please....idk when i will get wired in. i just did nomodeset. | 09:05 |
| aossi | k | 09:05 |
| varunendra | aossi, are you sure it is a graphics driver issue? If not, have you tried any other boot options? | 09:05 |
| Seveas | varunendra: I'm guessing a package failed to configure, causing many packages to be left in a crap state, probably including the initramfs. Seen it before. | 09:06 |
| aossi | every boot option except nomodeset has failed | 09:06 |
| Seveas | so let's try apt-get -f install and dpkg --configure -a until they no longer give any output | 09:06 |
| Seveas | and if we find the failing package, we can fix it | 09:06 |
| diminoten | well this is depressing | 09:07 |
| aossi | that -f install didnt work either | 09:07 |
| Seveas | aossi: did it give any output? | 09:07 |
| aossi | lemme get a pic for you | 09:07 |

| aossi | k hold on | 09:19 |
| Seveas | neetz: if your computer doesn't boot the live cd, either you have a broken live cd (did you check it?) or a really broken computer (broken memory perhaps, try the memtest boot option) | 09:19 |

| theadmin | Hello everyone. I have a problem with an Optimus card here. I am using 12.04 with nvidia-prime. Everything works perfectly, but running fullscreen apps in wine crashes Xorg. Switching to the Intel card makes that work, but obviously results in quite a bit of overheating. | 09:33 |
| Seveas | neetz: you don't have an X issue. YOu have a broken filesystem, which is causing many things (including X) to not be able to start. You need to fix that filesystem. | 09:33 |
| Ben64 | neetz: i'm going to go ahead and ignore that link. what problems are you experiencing yourself and how did they start | 09:34 |
| theadmin | Oh, yeah, the card is Geforce GT 635M | 09:34 |
| neetz | Ben64: I don't know myself , One day It did not boot , it was working al lfine .. it gets stuck .. , six months back I had a similar issue, and It was the Nvidiea Graphics Driver Problem (Unity ) i guess , I did not anything , I reforamatted everything . .now again i face that problem | 09:36 |
| neetz | Seveas: Why Doesnt it boot to liveCd ? I guess it's a Graphics Issue | 09:36 |

| === Konata- is now known as Konata | ||

| Quibus | Can someone help me please? | 09:40 |
| neetz | Ben64: :( , can i run any command so that I can clear and reinstall the filesystem errors | 09:41 |
| icedwater | Quibus: just ask the question, you're waiting twice as long as you need to. | 09:41 |
| Quibus | I'm running an SVN server on 12.04, and I made a post-commit hook that works fine when I set its permissions on 755. Works fine for the rest of the day then. But next day, the permission of the file is changed to 655 and the post-commit hook starts to fail. Why is that permission changed? And how do I stop this? I can't find a cronjob or something that would do this. Is there some Ubuntu security feature that removes execute permission | 09:42 |
| Quibus | icedwater: I'm repeating my question.... I had already asked it earlier without any reaction | 09:42 |
| icedwater | Quibus: ah, OK. I didn't see that in the past half hour or so. No wonder. | 09:42 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, wth is a "post-commit hook" | 09:43 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: a script that the SVN server runs when someone does a commit | 09:43 |
| icedwater | Do remember that we are (mostly) volunteers here and are also pretty busy, so it's not unusual to have to wait quite a while. | 09:43 |
| Quibus | But the script doesn't run if it doesn't have execute permissions of course | 09:43 |
| Quibus | icedwater: of course. It's just that I got 0 reactions within 1.5 hours :P | 09:44 |
| Quibus | oh, 2 hours | 09:44 |
| icedwater | I don't know of any such security feature though. | 09:44 |
| Quibus | I've now even setup a cronjob that fixes the permissions daily again and an inotify icronjob to get a mail when the permission is changed again | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | neetz: you can try | 09:45 |
| Quibus | But I can't find out what is changing it in the first place | 09:45 |
| neetz | Ben64: I am not findin any commands :( | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | neetz: fsck | 09:45 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, so you made a script set 755 permissions on it and it's changing. Have you check the time/date of the script which was last updated in case it received updates after your permission set to make sure nothing is modifying it afterwards. Or maybe there is a chance the script is setting permissions itself and by accident changing it's own permissions? | 09:46 |
| neetz | did that in root shell , did not solve | 09:46 |
| Ben64 | what did it do | 09:46 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, have you tried moving that script out of that path and see if permissions keep changing? | 09:46 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: the script isn't changing permissions itself, it simply sends a mail. The script actually works fine. I even added a 0-sized dummy file in the same dir and that file also got it's x-permission removed | 09:47 |
| neetz | Ben64: Nothing , it said done .. and came out of shell | 09:47 |
| icedwater | Quibus: which directory is that? | 09:47 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, which path is it if I may ask? | 09:47 |
| Quibus | It is in /srv/svn/<REOPNAME>/hooks | 09:48 |
| Quibus | REPONAME | 09:48 |
| Ben64 | neetz: try it again | 09:48 |
| neetz | Ben64: K | 09:48 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, try this.. move the script to /home/youruser/bin/ and then to a symbolik link in /srv/svn/<REOPNAME>/hooks pointing to it | 09:49 |
| ezra-s | check if it keeps happening | 09:49 |
| theadmin | Don't you need to call fsck with a partition argument? | 09:49 |
| theadmin | Ben64: ^ | 09:49 |
| Quibus | *something* is changing the permissions. I checked the attributes modification date (ls -lsct) and saw it got changed last night at 23:12 for instance. But no cron job was running at that time. | 09:49 |
| ezra-s | if not maybe it is a svn thing | 09:49 |
| TJ- | aossi: Have you made progress? | 09:49 |
| aossi | eh slowly. | 09:49 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, svn has a permament process like a daemon? | 09:50 |
| icedwater | Not that I know of... | 09:50 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, have you made sure it is not svn related process changing permissions? | 09:50 |
| Ben64 | theadmin: nope | 09:50 |
| icedwater | Did you check where your /srv/ is mounted and how? | 09:50 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: I checked on #svn and no one there knows of such a thing | 09:50 |
| TJ- | aossi: Do you have wifi yet? | 09:51 |
| Quibus | Google didn't turn up anything like it | 09:51 |
| aossi | TJ- bout to see if what i was to do worked | 09:51 |
| Quibus | /srv is not a separate mount | 09:51 |
| Quibus | it's just a dir in the root | 09:51 |
| Quibus | and it's completely owned by www-data | 09:52 |
| icedwater | Which is also the Apache user, right? | 09:52 |
| Quibus | yeas | 09:52 |
| Quibus | There is some apache2 cronjob, but that only clears the cache. | 09:53 |
| aossi | ugh back at grub..... | 09:54 |
| Quibus | There doesn't seem to be a separate subversion daemon process running | 09:54 |
| icedwater | Quibus: would this be in any way relevant? http://serverfault.com/questions/188654/svn-post-commit-user-permissions | 09:55 |
| icedwater | The answers seem sparse, to be fair. | 09:55 |
| ezra-s | I'd say file is being re-recreated somehow and umask is different than permission set, bt I don't know svn enough I'm speculating | 09:55 |
| xjkx | I have no folder icons. Using either thunar or pcmanfm I just get the name of the folders without the icon. I run ubuntu 13.10/64 bits, but I dont use gnome, I use openbox | 09:56 |
| Quibus | icedwater: the hook works fine, until the permissions get changed without me doing that | 09:56 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: that's a good idea, it could be recreated for some reason | 09:56 |
| Quibus | umask is 0002 | 09:57 |
| Quibus | but the file changes from 755 to 655 | 09:57 |
| ezra-s | 655 does not make much sense really :( | 09:57 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, go brute force grep everything under /srv for "655" | 09:58 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: there are complete svn repositories in there... but what would be the use of that grep? | 09:58 |
| icedwater | Hmm, doesn't a umask of 0002 force the all-write bit off? | 09:59 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, check if there is a file or script or anything applying those, that's why I said "brute force" :P | 09:59 |
| Quibus | ah like that | 09:59 |
| Quibus | I grepped on chmod a bit in the cron dir, but not in the srv stuff | 09:59 |
| Quibus | it could also do a -x | 10:00 |
| Quibus | not necessarily 655 | 10:00 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, since you have the date of last modification different or so I understood you could heck if that behaviour persists every day and be there waiting and checking processes for the next time it happens | 10:00 |
| icedwater | Yeah | 10:00 |
| icedwater | I was thinking chmod -x | 10:00 |
| ezra-s | s/heck/check | 10:00 |
| Quibus | ezra-s: as I said: I put an inotify cron job on it | 10:00 |
| ezra-s | then grep for chmod | 10:00 |
| ezra-s | Quibus, not for a cronjob, but an already running process re-inforcing certain policy | 10:01 |
| ezra-s | or whatever may be happening | 10:01 |
| Quibus | The inotify will mail me if the permission of the file is changed | 10:01 |
| ezra-s | so you will know the time it happens | 10:01 |
| Quibus | yes | 10:02 |
| Quibus | But the c-time also shows that | 10:02 |
| Quibus | (last night at 23:12) | 10:02 |
| ezra-s | make it send you a list of processes too | 10:02 |
| kivilahtio_ | Hello! Could anyone help me with setting up "outbound traffic via a specific ethernet interface"? | 10:02 |
| Quibus | I tried sending the output of 'lsof | grep post-commit' but that was empty when I changed it myself | 10:02 |
| Quibus | I also tried sending the output of "ps -Af | grep post-commit" but that only resulted in the grep command | 10:03 |
| geirha | Quibus: Are there any cronjobs running at around 23:11? | 10:03 |
| Quibus | geirha: no, I checked that in syslog, | 10:03 |
| kivilahtio_ | I managed to configure outbound packets to use a new routing table with a default gateway for the ethernet device, and I can verify packets leaving my system, but the replies cannot be forwarded to the bridge :( | 10:03 |
| geirha | Quibus: was there a commit around 23:12 ? | 10:03 |
| Quibus | a job ran before that but was closed a few minutes prior to the change at 23:12 | 10:03 |
| geirha | Quibus: well, it could've spawned a background job which lived on for a while, but that would be a silly thing to do in a cronjob | 10:04 |
| Quibus | geirha: there was no commit at all | 10:04 |
| TJ- | Quibus: have you checked the umask of the user the svn process runs as? | 10:06 |
| === sandeep is now known as Guest60269 | ||
| ezra-s | Quibus, I would forget "post-commit" and go checking something more... generic | 10:07 |
| TJ- | Quibus: The umask could cause permissions changes when a checkout or update is done | 10:07 |
| geirha | Quibus: On a side note, you could change ownership to root, that way, only root will be able to chmod it. | 10:07 |
| geirha | If it still changes mode after that, you'll know it's either someone logged in as root doing it, or some root cronjob or similar. | 10:08 |

| theadmin | mus1c: Welcome to the Ubuntu support channel. This channel is for questions related to support issues with the Ubuntu operating system, software for it, etc. | 10:10 |

| mus1c | can you ask for xubuntu issues here or is there another blog for that? | 10:10 |
| theadmin | mus1c: Xubuntu is fine, you can ask your question, however #xubuntu also exists. | 10:11 |

| ezra-s | Zorky, vnc is not made to connect to "console" afaik | 10:13 |
| Zorky | ezra-s: when i use virt-manager from a ubuntu machine running qemu-kvm i can set a vnc display, it gets set on per default. but with a change to port you can connect to the vm with vnc and control it | 10:14 |

| nitin | hello .. guys is it worth to configure a vps running ubuntu server where apache is actually running and a website is being hosted to be configured as a VPN server as well..? | 11:07 |
| llutz | nitin: vpn to achieve what? if you want it for security/anonymity - No, since you don't control the VPS | 11:08 |
| NBhosting | euhm any of you ever had apt-get update waiting at 0% | 11:10 |
| NBhosting | fresh install | 11:10 |
| NBhosting | i can ping outside | 11:10 |
| nitin | llutz, hmm ok then what do u suggest for VPN ? | 11:11 |
| llutz | nitin: vpn to do what? for most purposes a VPS should be fine, it's just not "safe" | 11:11 |
| NBhosting | 0% connecting to nl.archive.ubuntu.com | 11:11 |
| nitin | NBhosting, may be u need to see if repository are edited with good mirrors | 11:12 |
| geirha | NBhosting: sounds like the nl mirror is having trouble | 11:12 |
| NBhosting | can i switch that quickly? | 11:12 |
| geirha | NBhosting: yes, run software sources (software-properties-gtk) | 11:12 |
| NBhosting | nl.archive.ubuntu.com seems to redirect to ubuntuarchive.nl | 11:13 |
| nitin | NBhosting, you better download a fresh one and install it.. instead of modifying repo list which may lead in some crash later on | 11:13 |
| NBhosting | a fresh iso you mean? | 11:13 |
| NBhosting | ah wait there it goes | 11:13 |
| NBhosting | slow but it goes | 11:13 |
| nitin | NBhosting, after all the time to freshly download and install a new one and the time for updating with the new repo might be the same time | 11:13 |
| nitin | NBhosting, oh ok if its slow then its another issue | 11:14 |
| geirha | nitin: he's doing an update, not a release upgrade | 11:14 |
| NBhosting | yeah i gues there server is having issues | 11:14 |
| nitin | NBhosting, try this command >> apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade | 11:14 |
| geirha | NBhosting: Occationally happens with the mirror I use too, I either wait it out, or switch to main server temporarily when it happens | 11:15 |
| Quibus | sorry, I was AFK for a while | 11:15 |
| NBhosting | yeah noiw it hanging again on 100% connection to security.ubuntu.com | 11:15 |
| Quibus | TJ-: this file is not part of the repo, so it shouldn't be changed/updated when any commit/update is done | 11:15 |
| Quibus | It's only executed | 11:15 |
| nitin | llutz, what do u advice for VPN ? | 11:16 |
| Quibus | Changing owner to root might be a good idea | 11:16 |
| geirha | NBhosting: hm. could be the issue is on your side too. Sounds similar to what may happen when two machines accidentally got the same ip | 11:16 |
| NBhosting | mm let me try switching ip | 11:17 |
| Quibus | gotta go, thanks for your suggestions and ideas | 11:17 |
| hello123 | hello | 11:19 |
| NBhosting | switching ip seems to fix it | 11:19 |
| TJ- | Quibus: is the repo directory on a remote NFS mount? | 11:19 |
| llutz | nitin: vpn to do what? for most purposes a VPS should be fine, it's just not "safe". if you rely on anonymity/security you have to find a vpn-provider you trust (hrm...) or you have to host all your stuff on your own/under your own control | 11:19 |

| ActionParsnip | NBhosting: you can use sed if you are good with it | 11:28 |
| NBhosting | kinda silly that apt-get doesnt notice the bad mirror and switches itself | 11:29 |

| ariisio | Hello, I'm trying to install virtualbox on Ubuntu Server 13.10 and somehow the installation got stuck at Regenerating fonts cache... Any advice how to proceed? | 11:55 |
| NBhosting | why would u install that once ubuntu :P | 11:56 |
| NBhosting | install proxmox and install ur vms on that | 11:56 |
| ariisio | Well, lets just say it needs to be installed ^^ | 11:56 |
| ariisio | I'm just wondering why it got stuck at "Regenerating fonts cache..." | 11:57 |
| NBhosting | maybe the same problem as me, ubuntu servers are slow/down today | 11:57 |
| jpds | NBhosting: That has nothing to do with package installation. | 11:57 |
| NBhosting | if it does get the font from there | 11:58 |
| Ben64 | ariisio: what exactly did you do | 11:58 |
| ariisio | That's what I thought. So you suggest I just wait? | 11:58 |
| jpds | NBhosting: Yes, but he's beyond that stage and onto the actual installation. | 11:58 |
| NBhosting | ah k | 11:58 |
| jpds | ariisio: Check "ps auxf" and see what it's running. | 11:58 |
| ariisio | How can I check the "ps auxf" if it's still running? | 12:02 |
| ariisio | And here is the link I followed | 12:03 |
| ariisio | https://gist.github.com/mikedevita/7461832 | 12:03 |
| ariisio | And everything went fine until step 6. "..... Setting up fontconfig-config (2.10.93-0ubuntu1) ... | 12:03 |
| ariisio | Setting up libfontconfig1:amd64 (2.10.93-0ubuntu1) ... | 12:03 |

| l00k1n-4-f4c7s | someone explain to me why ubuntu (linux) is so much more secure than using windows? im not a comp nub just never attempted the switch | 12:04 |
| jpds | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: There are a varity of reasons. | 12:04 |
| Ben64 | well one problem there ariisio is you added a 3rd party repository. we can't support those here, and virtualbox is in the default repositories, so that is wholly unnecessary | 12:05 |
| ariisio | jpds: ps auxf gives a whole bunch of results | 12:05 |
| bekks | BEsides the fact that virtualbox in the ubuntu repos is broken for ages now. | 12:06 |
| l00k1n-4-f4c7s | briefly, could you convince me why i shouldn't be running windows and why i should switch to ubuntu | 12:06 |
| Ben64 | hmm... nope not broken | 12:06 |
| jpds | ariisio: Find the tree under dpkg. | 12:06 |
| bekks | It is. Entirely. Due to kernel ABI changes that old 4.1.x vbox doesnt work with current LTS enablement stack kernels. | 12:06 |
| jpds | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: Go and try it for yourself and make that decision on your own. | 12:06 |
| yeyeman | does ubuntu have a web server running by default? | 12:06 |
| bekks | Thats what I call "broken". | 12:07 |
| yeyeman | I get a message when I try my ip | 12:07 |
| jpds | yeyeman: No, there are no services listening on ports by default. | 12:07 |
| Ben64 | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: thats really not within the scope of this channel. you should use what you want and what serves your needs. a linux based chat channel may provide more of what you're looking for in a discussion on that matter | 12:07 |
| jpds | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: It's not that hard to make a bootable USB key and run it off that. | 12:07 |
| yeyeman | jpds: Do you know how I can shut down the service providing the "It works ..." message? | 12:08 |
| Ben64 | bekks: considering that i run it on my computer here, which is LTS and using a more recent kernel, i'd have to say you are incorrect in this matter | 12:08 |
| jpds | yeyeman: That's usually Apache. | 12:08 |
| jpds | yeyeman: sudo service apache2 stop | 12:08 |
| ariisio | jpds: I can't seem to find dpkg... | 12:08 |
| bekks | Ben64: So which kernel version do you use, and which vbox version do you use? | 12:08 |
| l00k1n-4-f4c7s | i understand, but is it security reasons? less limitations for open-source progs, what? | 12:08 |
| Ben64 | bekks: which is not even related to the issue at hand. the page linked to was a way to get virtualbox installed on saucy, which is not LTS | 12:09 |
| jpds | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: Not here, go to #ubuntu-offtopic. | 12:09 |
| yeyeman | jpds, thanks | 12:09 |
| l00k1n-4-f4c7s | ...pretty on-topic if you ask me and/or ubuntu.com/tour/ for directing me to here | 12:10 |
| jpds | l00k1n-4-f4c7s: This is a support channel. | 12:10 |

| yeyeman | bekks: well if it's an unwanted service that starts itself up when I try to shut it down it's at least starting to look, feel and smell like a virus | 12:15 |
| Ben64 | yeyeman: it only starts because you installed it | 12:15 |
| bekks | yeyeman: If it is unwanted, then uninstall it. It still doesnt quialify Apache being a virus. | 12:15 |
| jpds | yeyeman: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 | 12:15 |

| BorisTheAnimal | scroll down to like step 9 or 10 | 12:21 |

| Seveas | is your harddisk light blinking? | 12:22 |
| BorisTheAnimal | ActionParsnip, went to amd homepage and took latest stable linux amd driver | 12:22 |
| OerHeks | BorisTheAnimal, so that howto uses drivers not from our repositorys? | 12:22 |
| Seveas | or is it not actually writing anything? | 12:22 |
| ariisio | It seems it's actually not even writing anything | 12:23 |
| BorisTheAnimal | Oer, yes? | 12:23 |
| oskie | what is this crap called cloud-init ... ok, sorry, that was a little troll-y | 12:24 |
| Seveas | ariisio: ok, kill tge fc-cache process and tell us what dpkg says afterwards. This *may* cause the package to not be registered as installed | 12:24 |
| jpds | oskie: It's a thing that runs with a cloud instance... inits. | 12:24 |
| oskie | all I need to know is how to disable it... | 12:25 |
| BorisTheAnimal | however I can come in to a terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+f2 or f1.. | 12:25 |
| OerHeks | BorisTheAnimal, i would not trust that, get the drivers from our repository, do not use those amd drivers repacked from an android forum | 12:25 |
| jpds | oskie: It shouldn't be enabled to start with. | 12:26 |
| Seveas | oskie: you could remove the cloud-init package :) | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | BorisTheAnimal: why did you not use the packaged driver in the repos? | 12:26 |
| ariisio | Seveas: Ok, I killed the process | 12:26 |
| BorisTheAnimal | okay but how do I go back? | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | BorisTheAnimal: blacklist the driver module perhaps | 12:26 |
| Seveas | ariisio: ok, can you please run this command and pastebin its output: sudo dpkg --configure -a | 12:26 |
| BorisTheAnimal | AP, I´m a noob when it comes to ubuntu.. | 12:26 |
| Seveas | that should fix things we may have broken by killing the process | 12:27 |
| ariisio | Seveas: Again, it's trying to regenerate the fonts cache and it doesn't seem to do anything | 12:27 |
| BorisTheAnimal | so can I somehow from the terminal uninstall the drivers and reboot to come back to an earlier point when they were not installed? | 12:28 |
| linu1 | hi all, is it possiable to pair bluetooth devices without pin using bt-tools ? | 12:28 |

| Seveas | ariisio: can you pastebin the output of ps aux | grep fc-cache | 12:28 |
| Seveas | jpds: well, at this point that doesn't matter - dpkg will want fc-cache to finish no matter what packages he wants to install :) | 12:29 |

| Seveas | xrandr only does displays | 12:51 |

| * Wiz_KeeD has a suspicion audio will be cut as well | 12:52 | |
| ikonia | point pulse at the device | 12:53 |
| ikonia | you can use hdmi for audio only | 12:53 |

| Wiz_KeeD | If I turn off the video it does not recognise it | 12:55 |
| Wiz_KeeD | the audio interface I mean | 12:55 |
| geirha | Sound Settings -> Output tab -> choose hdmi from the list | 12:55 |

| ActionParsnip | Capprentice: so the mic feeds to the output too? Is that the issue? | 13:07 |
| Capprentice | Yes,. | 13:08 |
| mellohey | bekks: im not sure atm but i think its Ralink | 13:09 |

| kivilahtio_ | Hello! I have a networking question. I have two ethernet devices eth1 and eth4. The default gateway is on eth4's 10.1.63.1, but I would like to listen for ssh-connections only from the eth1-interface (192.126.16.90) I already set the sshd_config's ListenAddress to 192.126.16.90:22. This doesn't help. I can confirm using tcpdump that I get a connection attempt to eth1 (192.126.16.90:22) but the ssh-connection wont bind? | 14:18 |
| bekks | kivilahtio_: Restart ssh afterwards. | 14:19 |
| arcnewuss | initrd.img-3.0.0-16-generic-pae does not boot, but initrd.img-3.0.0-16-generic works well. Should I uninstall ...pae? | 14:19 |
| bekks | arcnewuss: Which CPU are you on, which exact make and model? | 14:20 |
| kivilahtio_ | bekks: service ssh restart -> nothing happened (tho I already restarted | 14:20 |
| bekks | kivilahtio_: What did you expect to happen when issueing that command? | 14:20 |
| kivilahtio_ | bekks: the ssh daemon stop and start again with the new configuration options | 14:21 |
| bekks | kivilahtio_: Which happened. | 14:21 |
| kivilahtio_ | bekks: running ps aux | grep ssh I find that I have 8 sshd -D processes running ? | 14:22 |
| usr13 | kivilahtio_: sudo service ssh stop && sudo service ssh start | 14:23 |
| bekks | kivilahtio_: Because there are 8 connections currently? :) | 14:23 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: already su | 14:23 |
| kivilahtio_ | bekks: usr13: no, sshd -D is a daemon process which listens, those are not connections | 14:24 |
| usr13 | kivilahtio_: Ok, just thought you could try it if you were skeptical | 14:24 |

| usr13 | kivilahtio_: So what is the matter? (Are the other devices listening for ssh connection also? | 14:26 |
| lpapp | hi, is there an alternative parallelized init script system for systemd? Upstart seems to be _much_ smaller, and I am looking for something like that on embedded. | 14:26 |
| === Neozonz is now known as Guest18643 | ||
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: I have 8 ethernet interfaces virtual/physical, so I guess I had sshd -D for every interface | 14:27 |
| SirLagz | kivilahtio_: or you have one sshd instance listening on all interfaces | 14:28 |
| jaami | ls -l shows folder but cd to that folder does not work, i think because the folder is hidden , what i can do to use cd on hidden folder? | 14:28 |
| Touhou11 | lpapp: systemd should be small enough for embedded imo, it's modular and you can choose what to build | 14:28 |
| Touhou11 | lpapp: Have you seen http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/MinimalBuilds/ ? | 14:28 |
| lpapp | Touhou11: it is 12 MB on my desktop | 14:28 |
| lpapp | we have 8 MB flash _altogether_. | 14:28 |
| BillMcCormick | dpkg-reconfigure -a did NOT fix the problem either | 14:29 |

| usr13 | kivilahtio_: ListenAddress 192.125.16.90:22 #Is that what you have in the config? | 14:29 |
| kivilahtio_ | I simply don't understand why my connection from 193.65.112.189 to 192.126.16.90:22 doesnt bind, any ideas where I could start debugging it? | 14:29 |
| lpapp | Touhou11: and I have not even mentioned dbus and glib | 14:30 |
| bekks | arcnewuss: Then proceed with reading the article given :) | 14:30 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: ListenAddress 192.126.16.90 Listen 22 | 14:30 |
| arcnewuss | thank you bekks | 14:31 |
| lpapp | which is another 1.8 MB | 14:31 |
| ELMEGA | HI | 14:31 |
| usr13 | kivilahtio_: Those are two different lines. Right? | 14:31 |
| lpapp | Touhou11: we would also need to strip the hard dependencies down like dbus. | 14:31 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: yes | 14:31 |
| lpapp | cause it is 1.34 MB | 14:31 |

| gt8ost4l | anybody know whats a good software to make debian bootable? | 14:34 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: 193.65.112.189 creates a connection to 192.126.16.90:22, the connection shouldn't be hampered by routes in 192.126.16.90 right? | 14:34 |
| Pici | Whiskers: read the manpage. | 14:34 |
| cfhowlett | gt8ost4l, ask the #debian channel | 14:34 |
| gt8ost4l | cfhowlett:i already tried and its useless | 14:35 |
| Whiskers | I forgot about that, thanks, I will look at it. | 14:35 |
| audictive | /"/script unload trigger.pl" | 14:35 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: I mean eth1 had no gateway, but has a static IP. sshd -D is listening on 192.126.16.90:22 (0.0.0.0:22 should work as well) | 14:35 |
| === Sleepnbum is now known as Guest23137 | ||
| usr13 | kivilahtio_: I don't know, but you could use nmap from another PC and see where it is listening. | 14:36 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: ok, | 14:36 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: nmap gives me this Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -Pn | 14:38 |
| usr13 | kivilahtio_: nmap -p22 192.125.16.90 ? | 14:38 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: nmap -Pn finds port 113 CLOSED as it always does | 14:38 |
| jaami | my simple question is how to move to a folder with cd that is shown only with ls -a | 14:38 |

| Guest1234567 | I want to backup the maildir from dovecot on my ubuntu machine, from my centos machine, would NFS or SSFS be better? | 14:51 |
| Guest1234567 | SSHFS | 14:51 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: Thank you for the suggestion, but my iptables are on default ACCEPT and this iptable rule didnt resolve the issue | 14:51 |
| bekks | Guest1234567: Doesnt matter, basically. | 14:51 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: I am running Ubuntu12.04 on HP G08 rack server, maybe there is a hardware issue? | 14:51 |
| Guest1234567 | bekks: NFS can lock a file/dir right? | 14:52 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: I mean this what we are trying to achieve should be a no-brainer? | 14:52 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, "iptables rule", not "iptable rule" :P | 14:52 |
| bekks | Guest1234567: Sure. Same as SSHFS. | 14:52 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, what's the iptables problem? | 14:52 |
| kivilahtio_ | usr13: listenint on ssh connections from non-gatewayed interface | 14:52 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: wow, a big problem, and not just about iptables, also routeing tables and rules :) | 14:53 |
| iptable | mmm, my favourite. | 14:53 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: currently I am trying to connect from 193.65.112.189 to 192.126.16.90:22 to establish an ssh connection | 14:53 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, and that's ETH1, while ETH4 is default GW | 14:54 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, just scrolled back | 14:54 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes | 14:54 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, so when you connect from 193... to 192... do you get tcpdump on 192. machine showing a connection attempt? | 14:54 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes | 14:54 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, what is 193? are you currently in THAT network? | 14:55 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes. That is my static IP | 14:55 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, ok, so you trying to connect from one machine on your LAN to another machine on your LAN using the WAN IP, is that correct? | 14:55 |
| iptable | damn, I just realised I have cut myself while doing DIY. There's blood between the keys... | 14:56 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: quite frankly I don't know the exact intranet architecture here | 14:56 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: wow, don't bleed on me :) | 14:56 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: I mean die on me ... | 14:57 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, well, 193... is your WAN interface right? you are currently on the local network to which 193 routes, yes? | 14:57 |

| ubottu | Hey christel, Corey, Dave2, Gary, Myrtti, Pricey, VorTechS, jayne, marienz, niko, nhandler, tomaw, ldunn, I could use a bit of your time :) | 14:57 |
| JohnCalvin | !ops | 14:57 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: my workstation IP is 193, 192 is on a different LAN | 14:57 |
| iptable | so your workstation has an external IP mapped to it? | 14:57 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: they are separated by a firewall | 14:58 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: nope | 14:58 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, 193. is an external IP range | 14:58 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: when I am connecting to 192 in the tcpdump there is 193 -> 192:22 | 14:58 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: so there is no NAT:ing the ssh connection | 14:58 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, ok, is there a response to 193 at all? | 14:59 |
| kivilahtio_ | nope | 14:59 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, no, there is some weird natting by the looks of it. 192 is a private network IP, while 193 is public network IP. Your workstation has got an external IP, while your server has got internal IP | 14:59 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, I would need to see the exact architecture to work this out, but my guess is that your router along the way has got issues with routing back and forth | 15:00 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: like I wrote earlier, this worked just fine when eth1 had the default gateway, now it doesn't work when I switched default gateway to eth4 | 15:00 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, my guess would be that reverse NAT is not setup (or NAT loopback to be exact) | 15:00 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, what is the IP of eth1? | 15:00 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: hmm. you might be right. I have been trying for two weeks to get virtual ridges to separate NIC's :) | 15:01 |
| kivilahtio_ | and not even this simple task works out | 15:01 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: eth1 192.126.16.90 (ssh host) | 15:01 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: eth0 193.65.112.189 (ssh client) | 15:01 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, wait you changed the default gateway? | 15:02 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, way? | 15:02 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, default gateway is only for connections without a route, i.e. for exaxmple new outbound connections. | 15:02 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, eth4 is 10. IP? | 15:02 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes, and I suspect the gateway should have no effect here | 15:02 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: eth4 is 10.1.63.202 | 15:03 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable but somehow the gateway makes all the difference here | 15:03 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, basically you are trying to connect from outside the NAT. So NAT takes place. Looks like the router in place can route package to 10. and to 192. It also looks like it doesn't route packets back from 192. to the internet while it routes packets back from 10. | 15:03 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, but if GW is eth4 GW, can you ssh to eth1 IP (192.)? | 15:04 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes I can ssh to eth1 IP | 15:04 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: firewalls block 10.1.63.202:22 (the current default gateway) | 15:04 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, so it looks as if the router in place expects all packets to come back from eth1 or 10. address. That would be router configuration | 15:05 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, kivilahtio_, so can't you set iptables rules on that machine to only accept SSH on 192. IP? | 15:05 |
| Terminal^ | guys; do we have screenfetch.deb? | 15:05 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: I mean I could ssh to eth1 when it was the default gateway | 15:05 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: now I cannot as it no more is the default gateway | 15:05 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: but I still get the tcp connection attempt visible in 192. | 15:05 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, oh. so you want to ssh to 192 but the default GW to be 10. right, and when you had default route to be the 192. it worked. | 15:06 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, give me output of ip route ls | 15:06 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: yes :) | 15:06 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, and GW IPs for eth1 and eth4 | 15:06 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, for ip route ls, use pastebin please | 15:06 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: I need to switch the gateway to get ssh access to the server. I cannot copypaste from the virtualized iLO connection under winxp :) | 15:07 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: I'll get you the logs asap | 15:07 |
| iptable | kivilahtio_, cool. I'll be out in 10 minutes for about 10 minutes, but then I'm back. I suspect you are just missing defined per-network routes | 15:08 |
| kivilahtio_ | iptable: Great! Ill get the pastebin ready for you! | 15:08 |

| Diegonat | hi guys... ages ago I saw a shell script that diveded the screen into two sections where on the top there was a kind of folder tree gui and at the bottom a normal bash shell. Do you have any idea what I am talking about?! | 15:58 |
| Terminal^_ | hasti? | 15:58 |
| Diegonat | Terminal^, are you answering me? | 15:58 |
| Terminal^_ | Diegonat: No m8 that was a mistake | 15:59 |
| Slart | Diegonat: sure it was a bash script and not just another terminal gui? | 16:01 |
| Diegonat | Slart, no tbh I cannot really remember | 16:02 |

| webfox_ | what is the difference between network and gateway? | 16:04 |
| webfox_ | which one would be my router? | 16:05 |
| bodhi_zazen | webfox_: they are usually related as your router helps manage both | 16:05 |
| bodhi_zazen | First typically your router manages your network via DHCP, assigning IP within a range, 192.168.0.0/24 | 16:06 |
| bodhi_zazen | Then, when you connect to the web it serves as your gateway (and typically firewall ans NAT as well) | 16:06 |
| webfox_ | bodhi_zazen: yes, I have my router ip, do I use it at network or gateway? | 16:06 |
| yacc | webfox_: the network "parameter" in ifconfig is a bitmask, which defines for your local PC which peers are contacted directly (if inside the LAN) and when the gateway parameter is used. | 16:06 |
| bodhi_zazen | what are you trying to do ? | 16:06 |
| doriano | doctor who | 16:07 |
| webfox_ | bodhi_zazen: set a static ip in /etc/network/interfaces | 16:07 |
| doriano | film | 16:07 |
| theadmin | !list | doriano | 16:08 |

| bodhi_zazen | Usually you set your router as the gateway | 16:08 |
| theadmin | ...err, that didn't work as intended xD | 16:08 |
| bodhi_zazen | then either dhcp or ip with netmask | 16:08 |

| leetdood | but for some reason crontab ends it at + | 16:09 |
| theadmin | leetdood: Complex commands may be best to be placed in a shellscript, and have cron run that script instead. | 16:09 |

| === notrev is now known as notrev`out | ||
| bodhi_zazen | webfox_: I do not think you are understanding what you are setting when you set "network" and "netmask" vs an ip address, see the link I gave you. | 16:14 |
| webfox_ | bodhi_zazen: the gateways is my the "base" IP for my router and the network is the "range" of IP it can assume? | 16:15 |

| doriano | list! | 16:16 |
| Barcelona1937 | amule | 16:16 |
| bodhi_zazen | why are you using "base" in quotes ? your gateway is your router which is a part of you network and identified by it's ip address | 16:16 |
| bodhi_zazen | You network is identified by network + netmask as in the link I gave | 16:17 |
| bodhi_zazen | Your router servers multiple functions and you need to understand those parts. One is a firewall (NAT), one is dhcp, and one is routing traffic | 16:19 |
| webfox_ | bodhi_zazen: if my router ip is 192.168.1.254 and netmask is 255.255.255.0 what can I use as network IP? 192.168.1.0 ? | 16:19 |

| thecodethinker | from apt | 16:21 |
| webfox_ | bodhi_zazen: I am not using dhcp, just a static ip. | 16:21 |
| ikonia | thecodethinker: before you do that, I think you need to look at what you are doing and what you spefically need | 16:21 |
| thecodethinker | is it apt-get install <lib name>:i386? | 16:21 |
| llutz | thecodethinker: apt-get install libxxx:i386 if you already configured multiarch | 16:21 |
| ikonia | thecodethinker: setting up multilib can have real problems, and impact to your machine | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | webfox_: the network is 192.168.1.0 and the first node is 192.168.0.1 | 16:22 |
| thecodethinker | ikonia: I think I did that already. I have the 32bit mesa drivers installed | 16:22 |
| llutz | ActionParsnip: wrong | 16:22 |
| ikonia | thecodethinker: this isn't for steam is it by any chance..... | 16:22 |

| ActionParsnip | webfox_: the network is 192.168.1.0 and the first node is 192.168.1.1 | 16:22 |
| thecodethinker | ikona: nope. I want to see if I can get libgluezilla working on wine by installing the 32bit libmono-webbrowser2.0-cli package | 16:22 |
| leetdood | thanks again Slart and theadmin! it works now | 16:23 |
| ikonia | thecodethinker: your box, so it's up to you, but this will burn you in the long run | 16:23 |
| thecodethinker | ikonia: I | 16:23 |
| thecodethinker | ikonia: I can always just reinstall linux ;) | 16:23 |
| ikonia | cool, ok, you're prepared for the possible worst | 16:24 |
| marlo_ | i've been looking at my auth.log and have been finding hacking attempts on sshd... now suddenly my auth.log file is completely gone, what gives? | 16:24 |
| webfox_ | ActionParsnip: so I am right, I can use 192.168.1.0 as network IP. | 16:24 |
| thecodethinker | ikonia: When I type in apt-get install libmono-webbrowser2.0-cli:i386 but it said no package was found :( | 16:24 |
| leetdood | hacker deleted it would be my guess, marlo_, but i have no idea | 16:24 |
| leetdood | dont listen to me | 16:24 |
| thecodethinker | Is there anywhere I could check if there is a 32bit version in the repo? | 16:24 |
| ikonia | thecodethinker: right, because they are not in the 64bit repos | 16:24 |
| webfox_ | But somehow it is not working :P | 16:24 |

| zzxc_afk | is it mounting before sda2? | 16:53 |
| NilsB | Beldar, which command ? | 16:53 |
| claude_ | I thought that by placing sd1 as swap first that this would be faster... since that the outter edge of a hard disk is faster | 16:53 |
| Beldar | NilsB, sudo apt-get -f install | 16:53 |

| claude_ | yes for example, if you go in gparted, you will see that the swap partition is totally at the left hand side | 16:54 |
| NilsB | Beldar, I try, but I think apt-get will send me back to dpkg --configure -a | 16:54 |
| claude_ | I thought that the location of the swap partition didn't matter... it matters? | 16:54 |
| zzxc_afk | claude_: Physically its going to be negliable, its just placing it on the outside of the disk. | 16:54 |
| Beldar | NilsB, Anyway I have to go, try that command, others can help you, best of luck. ;) | 16:54 |
| zzxc_afk | claude_: swap doesn't matter that much if you have enough ram. | 16:55 |
| NeedeeUzr | Need help. Have added nignx ppa with current binaries to an apt-mirror. clients pointed at this mirror cannot see the newest version of Nginx.

| NeedeeUzr | Unfortunately, the client machines are still only seeing the old nginx version whe running apt-cache show nginx. | 16:55 |
| zzxc_afk | claude_: its basically code storage for ram | 16:55 |
| claude_ | yeah I have only 1.75 GB (250 MB for the on-board Nvidia graphic card), so I have a 8GB sda1 swap partition | 16:55 |
| Diegonat | guys.. do you know how to concatenate two tarballs where the second one you put it in a specific folder of the first one? | 16:55 |
| NilsB | Beldar, yes => apt-get asks me to dpkg --configure -a , which does not want to run till the end | 16:55 |
| zzxc_afk | claude_: mmmm alright fair enough. | 16:56 |
| claude_ | but the weird thing is | 16:56 |
| claude_ | if I boot in recovery mode | 16:56 |
| lepfaa | what are you talking about, bheya | 16:56 |
| claude_ | then I hit simply "resume"... the boot process will NOT hang | 16:56 |
| claude_ | I'm totally speechless | 16:56 |
| NilsB | Beldar, as we say in french, this is the snake that eats its tail | 16:56 |
| claude_ | and if I boot normally, the computer hangs after the swap is added 4 out of 5 times | 16:56 |
| claude_ | but somtimes it goes through | 16:56 |
| NilsB | Beldar, I cannot run any apt-get | 16:57 |
| zzxc_afk | So here is what I think the issue is: | 16:57 |
| zzxc_afk | Hmmm no that doesn't make sense actually. | 16:57 |

| claude_ | I know this is really weird | 16:58 |
| zzxc_afk | claude_: you should check to see if swapon is enabled when you're in recovery. | 16:58 |

| StrangeloveMD | Have you tried runing the formatting utillity again, and only reformatting the swap drive? | 17:04 |
| NilsB | Guest32758, swap cannot be formated, don't try | 17:05 |
| StrangeloveMD | NilsB: Does he not mean the initial partitioning of a drive to include a swap partition? | 17:05 |
| BorisTheAnimal | hrm, my sudo says this: [sudo] password for myusername: sudo: myusername: command not found.. | 17:06 |

| NeedeeUzr | Unfortunately, the client machines are still only seeing the old nginx version whe running apt-cache show nginx. | 17:07 |
| NeedeeUzr | Is this question too complex? | 17:07 |
| lepfaa | yes or no | 17:07 |
| BorisTheAnimal | sudo command, trying to login in to my admin account on my ubuntu | 17:07 |
| NilsB | coming back to my issue, any idea about dpkg --configure -a does not ending | 17:07 |
| ikonia | but the bios normally honours what it says it's going to do, or has an option like press F12 to select boot device | 17:07 |
| ikonia | oops | 17:08 |
| ikonia | BorisTheAnimal: what is the exact command you are using, and I mean "exact" command | 17:08 |
| NilsB | BorisTheAnimal, are you sure your account is sudoers enable ? | 17:08 |
| mahmoud | ubuntu server vs. ubuntu desktop. what's the difference? | 17:08 |
| theadmin | mahmoud: Server doesn't have a GUI | 17:08 |
| mahmoud | ONLY that? how about software versions? | 17:08 |
| ikonia | mahmoud: intended use, default packages, some kenrel tweakss etc | 17:08 |
| mahmoud | will ubuntu server not allow me to install some sort of packages due to additional security restrictions that may forbid me from using cutting-edge software? | 17:09 |
| NilsB | mahmoud, not sure, but I think ubuntu server has root enable and no X | 17:09 |
| aossi | i tried upgrading to ubuntu 12.10 it did its thing and now when i boot i get the splash screen then pitch black. i did the nomodeset trick and am now at a terminal style login screen. from here how do i get wifi and create a boot image of 12.04 i have a usb drive to use. | 17:09 |
| theadmin | mahmoud: Eh, Ubuntu doesn't really do "cutting edge" | 17:09 |
| mahmoud | theadmin: i mean "even-less-cutting-edge" | 17:10 |
| theadmin | mahmoud: But if you're worried about that, just use the LTS release. Actually, on production servers, always use LTS, helps to avoid updating like crazy | 17:10 |
| ikonia | mahmoud: the repos are the same as the desktop | 17:10 |
| mahmoud | yeah | 17:10 |
| NilsB | mahmoud, if its an remote server, prefer Debian, if its a local server ubuntu server (without X) or desktop (with X)is fine | 17:10 |
| aossi | can some one help me figure this out? | 17:11 |
| NilsB | mahmoud, and maybe you will not have office tools on the server, maybe, I don't know, I user Debian for servers | 17:11 |
| theadmin | NilsB: Pretty much none of the Ubuntu desktop stuff (like LibreOffice, Firefox, and the actual GUI of course) is present in the server edition | 17:12 |
| theadmin | NilsB: So yeah, no "office tools" in the default install | 17:12 |
| theadmin | ...Unless you count, say, Nano as an office tool | 17:12 |
| StrangeloveMD | aossi: Can you not startx into the gui? | 17:13 |
| aossi | idk how to startx | 17:13 |
| mahmoud | okay guys, you are nice. i opt for ubuntu server for my batch jobs | 17:13 |
| aossi | ive googled the heck out of it. and still nothing to get me to startx | 17:13 |
| StrangeloveMD | aossi: When you launch into terminal, type "startx" and hit enter | 17:13 |
| aossi | nope it wont let me | 17:14 |
| StrangeloveMD | ... | 17:14 |
| NeedeeUzr | Can someone help me with a local ubuntu mirror? | 17:14 |
| StrangeloveMD | What does it do? | 17:14 |
| robertzaccour | NeedeeUzr: *bump | 17:15 |
| NilsB | theadmin, ok, thanks for the information | 17:15 |
| aossi | it said unable to connect to x server | 17:15 |
| StrangeloveMD | NeedeeUzr: Whats the issue? | 17:15 |
| aossi | do i need internet to startx?? | 17:16 |
| theadmin | aossi: Uh, no. But you need to have X installed, of course | 17:16 |
| StrangeloveMD | aossi: Are you sure you installed Ubuntu Desktp, not Server? | 17:16 |
| Screwba | HAHAHHA... | 17:16 |
| StrangeloveMD | aossi: theadmin is correct | 17:16 |
| Screwba | sounds like a server install to me | 17:16 |
| aossi | yea. i got the 12.10 upgrade from my update manager on 12.04 | 17:16 |
| theadmin | Oh, errh. Yeah X broke during the Quantal upgrade for me, but I assumed that was due to the power failure -_- | 17:17 |
| StrangeloveMD | aossi: sudo apt-get install xorg openbox | 17:17 |
| StrangeloveMD | Oh, is this a known issue? | 17:18 |
| StrangeloveMD | (wtf' that's for xorg) | 17:18 |
| aossi | didnt work. unable to correct problems. you have held broken package | 17:18 |
| NeedeeUzr | robertzaccour, am I doing something wrong here | 17:18 |
| NilsB | so, not idea for dpkg --configure that do not ending, then, total reinstall I think | 17:19 |
| robertzaccour | i dunno | 17:19 |

| === arayaq_ is now known as arayaq | ||
| NeedeeUzr | StrangeloveMD, How would you clear the cache? | 17:22 |
| monkeyhat | what cache | 17:22 |
| StrangeloveMD | NeedeeUzr: I have no idea how the end user is acessing the mirror, it might not be relevent | 17:23 |
| theadmin | NeedeeUzr: You need to run "apt-get update" usually to refresh the package info and stuff | 17:23 |
| theadmin | NeedeeUzr: On the "client" machines, i.e. those which would be pulling packages in from your mirror | 17:23 |
| NeedeeUzr | Thanks, I've done all of that. | 17:23 |
| theadmin | As for cache, you can clear it with "apt-get clean" but that isn't going to fix anything | 17:24 |
| Pursche | Hey, I am a bit confused and I was hoping that someone in here could sort something up for me. I am an "happy" owner of an Acer Iconia W5, it is an x86 tablet/laptop hybrid that runs Windows 8. I was wondering what the touch support in Ubuntu is like. | 17:24 |
| NeedeeUzr | theadmin, I have done that. Thanks. | 17:24 |
| aossi | steangelovemd did that but sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop and it didnt work i think 12.10 broke bad... | 17:24 |
| NeedeeUzr | I think it may have to do with 2 different repos on the local mirror having that package. Don't know how to fix though. | 17:25 |
| theadmin | NeedeeUzr: Eh, APT is designed to always pull in the latest version | 17:25 |
| davido_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices | 17:25 |
| NeedeeUzr | yeah, and it has worked to custom repos I have enter before, but not for the nginx or percona repos. Don't know what's different. | 17:26 |
| Pursche | Davido_, isnt Ubuntu Touch aimed towards Android? | 17:26 |
| Pursche | I was in their IRC a couple of minutes ago and they told me they do not support x86 and that I should go here. | 17:27 |
| theadmin | Pursche: Yeah, ignore that link. I am not sure what the "touch" support is on the Desktop version | 17:27 |
| theadmin | Pursche: But in general, touch emulates mouse, so it should work fine. The Ubuntu UI seems quite touch-friendly | 17:27 |
| Pursche | Okay that's great, thank you. :) | 17:27 |
| aossi | ubuntu desktop wont install :( | 17:28 |
| aossi | i think imma have to make a hoot image? | 17:28 |
| theadmin | a what | 17:28 |
| nixnewbie | Morning folks. New here. I just installed 13.10 Desktop. It was working fine last night and I installed VMWare Workstation 10 on it, messed around a bit and went home. I cam back this morning and I can't click on most things on the desktop. | 17:28 |
| nixnewbie | It changes too | 17:28 |
| aossi | boot image* | 17:28 |
| * cfhowlett wondered what a "hoot image" would do ... | 17:28 | |
| aossi | it was a typo | 17:29 |
| n000b | Where is ia32libs in ubuntu 13.10??? | 17:29 |
| nixnewbie | For a bit I could click on the launcher icons. Now I can't clik on that, or anything else. It is just unresponsive to mouse clicks. I changed from my wireless Logitech to wired USB mouse/keyboard and changed USB ports. No difference. | 17:29 |
| aossi | sooo how do i get wifi through this terminal bullshit thing so i can make a boot image | 17:29 |
| n000b | i need 32bit compatibility on a x64 13.10 ubuntu !!! | 17:29 |
| aossi | nooob the ubutu website has that | 17:30 |
| theadmin | n000b: ia32-libs no longer exists, you can just install 32-bit versions of packages you want | 17:30 |
| theadmin | n000b: sudo apt-get install whatever:i386 | 17:30 |
| n000b | theadmin well i need to install 32bit compatibility for a user (which will later intall additional 32 bit packages), so i need ia32-libs ... where can i get it from? | 17:31 |
| theadmin | n000b: You don't | 17:31 |
| theadmin | n000b: You just install the 32-bit package, APT handles the rest | 17:31 |
| n000b | so ubuntu no longer supports 32 bit compatibility then? | 17:31 |
| theadmin | n000b: It does, it's just implemented differently | 17:32 |
| theadmin | n000b: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch | 17:32 |
| mnemon | n000b: apt will automatically fetch the required 32bit libs | 17:32 |
| n000b | theadmin i just run "sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386"... is that all i can do for 32bit compatibility preparation? | 17:32 |
| theadmin | n000b: You don't need to run that, it's enabled by default | 17:33 |
| theadmin | n000b: So you're pretty much set | 17:33 |
| n000b | theadmin, mnemon ok thanks guys | 17:33 |
| aossi | fudge it imma just boot image 12.04 | 17:35 |

| tyler_d | xa0s_: is it using eth0? | 17:43 |
| xa0s_ | yes.. 0.0.0.0:22 is in listen mode | 17:43 |

| xa0s_ | hardwired, yes. | 17:43 |

| cfhowlett | xa0s_, ask trisquel channel for support. | 17:45 |
| xa0s_ | i did. | 17:45 |

| BorisTheAnimal | well it asked for a password for my username but when I entered it said "sudo: myun: command not found" | 17:45 |

| BorisTheAnimal | how do I use the root account through terminal? I have tried typing sudo my user name and then entering my pass but it does not work | 17:53 |
| tyler_d | BorisTheAnimal: su - | 17:53 |
| tyler_d | the - is so you log the .profile for root | 17:53 |
| malgorath | I thought sudo -i was more 'secure' | 17:53 |
| BorisTheAnimal | su: Authentication failure | 17:53 |
| tyler_d | BorisTheAnimal: not the same thing as sudo though. | 17:53 |
| tyler_d | BorisTheAnimal: because sudo and su are not the same.... | 17:53 |
| malgorath | BorisTheAnimal: use sudo -i and type your password | 17:53 |
| tyler_d | malgorath: that's not root though.... (or at least I dont think it is) | 17:54 |
| bekks | !root | BorisTheAnimal | 17:54 |
| ubottu | BorisTheAnimal: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:54 |
| BorisTheAnimal | oh no pass needed for that command | 17:54 |
| malgorath | also if you REALLY want to use su - you have to do sudo passwd root | 17:55 |
| Turn_Left | is it common to stick with 12.04 due to it being LTS even though it's outdated? | 17:55 |
| malgorath | Turn_Left: depends on what your doing, server dev stuff, probably. | 17:55 |
| bekks | Turn_Left: 12.04 isnt outdated. It receives updates and security fixes until 2017. | 17:55 |
| cfhowlett | Turn_Left, it's common and it's not outdated. | 17:55 |
| Turn_Left | oh i see | 17:55 |

| Turn_Left | i read a site about updates and they hinted it being outdated... thanks | 17:56 |
| bekks | Turn_Left: Then dont read that again, since it is wrong, obviously. | 17:56 |
| malgorath | Turn_Left: its not 'outdated' but it does lag behind non-lts releases for stabilty sake | 17:56 |
| Turn_Left | ok bekks.. i'll always come here 1st | 17:57 |
| Turn_Left | oh i see malgorath | 17:57 |
| tyler_d | as your user, in a terminal type `sudo whoami` <--- say's I'm root.... how peculiar. | 17:57 |
| proteneer | i have nvidia drivers installed right now | 17:58 |
| malgorath | tyler_d: thats why sudo -i (sudo interactive mode) works for doing everything as if you were root, sudo -i then type whoami it will say root | 17:58 |
| proteneer | whats the proper way to update them | 17:58 |
| proteneer | currently 319.xx | 17:58 |
| tyler_d | malgorath: how is that different than sudo o-s | 17:58 |
| tyler_d | sudo -s I mean | 17:59 |
| ecdhe | If I run a bash script, I see the output of the commands. Is there any way I can also get the commands themselves to be printed? | 17:59 |
| malgorath | tyler_d: idk, never used -s but I used -i when I'm doing things like server installs to allow me to not have to sudo apt-get install a few million times | 17:59 |
| tyler_d | malgorath: exactry, I use -s for the same thing :p | 17:59 |
| malgorath | saving 5 keystrokes per line over 30 or 40 lines | 18:00 |
| ecdhe | For instance, a script with the command " echo hello " should print: | 18:01 |
| ecdhe | echo hello | 18:01 |
| ecdhe | hello | 18:01 |
| tyler_d | malgorath: sudo -i <-- interactive, spawns with root variables | 18:01 |
| theadmin | ecdhe: bash -v script | 18:01 |
| tyler_d | malgorath: sudo -s <-- spawns a new shell instance as root | 18:01 |
| ecdhe | Thanks theadmin! | 18:01 |
| theadmin | ecdhe: (replace "script" with the filename of the script) | 18:02 |
| tyler_d | theadmin: is it bash or sh? | 18:02 |
| theadmin | tyler_d: Depends on what kind of script it is, eh | 18:02 |
| tyler_d | indeed ;) | 18:02 |

| === robin_ is now known as rpolak | ||
| _zap_ | Phil42: is there a way to debug such early kernel boot problems more or less easily or is it merely a matter of trying different kernel versions | 19:54 |
| Beldar | tch, I have no clue, and can only google what you post. | 19:54 |
| tch | Beldar: ok, thx | 19:54 |
| tch | bekks: ok, thx | 19:54 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: it would be much easier if you were booting that kernel from a local disk. it sounds like you are never getting the kernel at all | 19:55 |
| SolarisBoy | looks like it could be 'unsupported action' | 19:56 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: i don't know how to get more information while efi booting via grub | 19:58 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: i apologize. you are not remote booting. i thought you were | 19:59 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: no the kernel is found | 20:00 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: i mean grub finds the kernel and hands over control | 20:00 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: just after that the system hangs | 20:00 |

| Phil42 | so, probably 12.04 | 20:07 |
| ritchief | clear | 20:07 |
| morsnowski | how useable is trusty by now or should I stay with 12.04? | 20:16 |
| Beldar | morsnowski, trusty is in development, #ubuntu+1 is its support channel. | 20:17 |
| morsnowski | i know that but i want to know whether it makes sense to stick with 12.04 for now and that is supported here | 20:18 |
| SolarisBoy | i try to stick to LTS regardless how yummy the dev branches look | 20:19 |
| SolarisBoy | maybe in a VM | 20:19 |
| Beldar | morsnowski, Both questions are outside support, bset you will get are biased answers. | 20:19 |
| Beldar | best* | 20:19 |
| Phil42 | morsnowski: i am sticking with 12.04 and i am following development by updating my 14.04 live cd iso file frequently with zsync | 20:22 |

| codygman- | For some reason when I first open my rxvt-unicode terminal it is pink instead of the colors I specify in .XResources... HOwever if I open a few (or wait a minute) it works fine | 20:30 |
| theadmin | brandom_: Huh, odd | 20:30 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: i just meant i will install another kernel | 20:31 |
| brandom_ | i suppose most would restart first, but i guess i like to know *why* which, of course, can really waste some time | 20:31 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: chrooting and all that | 20:31 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: i thought you were going to take your laptop apart :) | 20:31 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: i was imprecise :) | 20:31 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: it bothers me that you can boot the cd the old way but not the efi way | 20:32 |
| John_John_ | what is the correct way to install LAMP on 13.10 desktop ? apt-get install lamp-server^ ? or manually one by one ? | 20:32 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: actually i can boot the cd the efi way | 20:32 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: that tells me that efi boot isn't working (duh) | 20:33 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: i put it on usb and booted it via grub in efi mode which works fine | 20:33 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: this way i installed precise on my yoga 2 pro | 20:33 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: just the installed kernel won't boot via efi | 20:33 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: it still bothers me | 20:34 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: so i would now boot via knoppix or something, mount the disk, chroot and install another kernel | 20:34 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: it bothers me too | 20:34 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: there are reports that ubuntu 13.10 works but not 12.04 | 20:34 |
| littlebe1r | John_John_: the easiest would install windows in virtualbox and use something like wamp | 20:34 |
| === brandom_ is now known as brandom | ||
| _zap_ | Phil42: but i didn't find an explanation ... just "it doesn't work" | 20:34 |
| littlebe1r | John_John_: however, if wish to do that in ubuntu, i recommend sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql5-server | 20:35 |
| Jordan_U | _zap_: Fun thing to try would be to modify the root= kernel parameter from the LiveCD boot menu to point to the installed system's root. | 20:35 |
| Phil42 | _zap_: i doubt i will be much help. i have never done that | 20:35 |
| John_John_ | littlebe1r: lol how old are you ? where you born when monitors were green ? | 20:36 |
| _zap_ | Phil42, Jordan_U: the problem is that the initrd doesn't match | 20:36 |
| John_John_ | littlebe1r: and that doesnt include php does it ? | 20:36 |
| _zap_ | Jordan_U, Phil42: on the other hand, it may be worth a try | 20:37 |
| littlebe1r | John_John_: Apache2 has a php module | 20:37 |
| _zap_ | Jordan_U, Phil42: i can simply copy the kernel and matching initrd over and booth those | 20:38 |
| littlebe1r | John_John_: what do you mean monitors were green? | 20:38 |
| John_John_ | littlebe1r: nothing...forget about it seriously | 20:38 |
| Phil42 | he has one of those nice amber monitors | 20:39 |
| John_John_ | Phil42: still ? i wish i had one now i guess....od memories.... | 20:40 |
| John_John_ | old* | 20:40 |
| Jordan_U | John_John_: There are multiple "correct" ways. Using tasksel is one way, and installing the services that you need manually with apt-get is another. | 20:41 |
| John_John_ | Jordan_U: tasksel is what i described before ? | 20:42 |
| John_John_ | sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ | 20:43 |
| John_John_ | or you run tasksel from command prompt some other way ? | 20:43 |
| Jordan_U | John_John_: They're related, it's somewhat of a question of semantics. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel should clarify things. | 20:43 |
| John_John_ | i see..i am new to linux anyways | 20:44 |
| John_John_ | i m gonna go with tasksel i guess and install anything extra manually from there | 20:44 |

| _zap_ | Phil42: the efi grub installed by ubuntu however does not appear to be able to load the kernel properly | 21:39 |
| hitsujiTMO | EleanorEllis: its not installed by default. most likely a dependency of something else you have installed | 21:40 |

| breadcrumb | i tried installing/running devilspie but it seems to be broken for 13.10 | 21:44 |
| hitsujiTMO | EleanorEllis: looking at the reverse dependencies of kismet there are no packages that require kismet, may be installed as part of a PPA or else you would have to have manually installed it (or someone else who has had access to your computer) | 21:44 |

| Phil42 | i was wrong, UltimateNate is on this channel | 21:52 |
| Coincourse | Aha. Thanks hitsujiTMO That's exactly what I was looking for. What if I backed up all of / to an external, wiped and repartitioned the hard drive with the Ubuntu installer, set up LVM again but didn't install the OS, then booted and copied it back? Would that wreak hell of all the permissions? | 21:53 |
| EleanorEllis | hitsujiTMO: Now it seems my distro upgrade has stalled. The terminal output looks like this http://pastebin.com/cczeppG8 | 21:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | Coincourse: you'd have issues with references to different filesystem (uuid stuff mainly). | 21:55 |
| hitsujiTMO | EleanorEllis: ouch. looks like it aint gonna complete. might need to do a reinstall | 21:56 |
| Coincourse | hitsujiTMO: Ah, ok. Sounds like I'll need a full reinstall then. Thanks for saving me some headaches | 21:56 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: thanks for your support. have to leave now | 21:56 |
| _zap_ | Phil42: from that point on i don't expect much trouble ... famous last words | 21:57 |
| EleanorEllis | hitsujiTMO: By reinstall, do you mean reformat the partition and install from a cd or start the upgrade again? | 21:58 |
| hitsujiTMO | format + install from cd | 21:58 |

| Coincourse | LVM is a way to do whole partition encryption | 22:04 |
| bekks | LVM has nothing to do with encryption. | 22:05 |
| bekks | You can use it inside an encrypted entity, or put encrypted volumes into LVM. But LVM itself has nothing to do with encryption. | 22:06 |

| cubud | I have a windows 7 machine running Ubuntu desktop in VMPlayer. If I install Ubuntu on a dedicated machine can I get a desktop connection from my windows box? | 22:22 |
| cubud | Not just terminal :) | 22:22 |
| webgen | hellow! | 22:24 |
| jamesd | cubud: ssh -X server command... can be xterm or gnome-terminal and then start anything you like | 22:24 |
| test4 | Hey i have theoretical question http://bpaste.net/show/183420/ can you help me with it? im thinking just set up new server and transfer data then make sure it works and then change nameserver info and its done.. what would step by step be.. am i correct? | 22:24 |
| jamesd | test4: is data static or dynamic, and does it change much? | 22:25 |
| cubud | jamesd: So Gnome and XTerm are apps that will run on Windows? | 22:26 |
| test4 | jamesd: lets say it does not but since its 60G of data id say some databases are there.. should just notify users server migration in progress? | 22:26 |
| jamesd | cubud: you install Xming on the windows machine... then you can use putty with X tunneling enabled. | 22:26 |
| test4 | jamesd: or change mysql in old to point to new server when new server is set up? | 22:27 |
| jamesd | test4: install apache or LAMP stack on the new box... copy data over.. test and validate, update dns record to point at new box. when all DNS for everyone updates tehy will be on the new box.. do a final sync up, and all data will be the same | 22:28 |
| yacc | cubud: X11 (traditionally, not all extensions nowadays) is a video output/keyboard/pointer device input system that is network transparent. | 22:28 |
| yacc | cubud: The X11 server (funny naming) is basically the IO device driver with some management on top of it. | 22:29 |
| cubud | jamesd: Do you happen to know a URL to a tutorial or something? I am a complete Linux newbie | 22:29 |
| yacc | cubud: Xming is a X11 server that runs on Windows. | 22:29 |
| cubud | yacc, server? Shouldn't I have a client on Windows? | 22:29 |
| jamesd | cubud: no... you need a server to handle the gui instructions, the application is the client, but the server draws on the screen | 22:30 |
| yacc | cubud: funny naming as I said. nowadays it would be called the client. | 22:30 |
| yacc | cubud: https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=Xming+putty+tunnel&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 | 22:30 |
| BillMcCormick | after updating to subversion 1.8.8 i have this problem : | 22:30 |
| BillMcCormick | svnlook: symbol lookup error: svnlook: undefined symbol: svn_pool_create_allocator | 22:30 |
| yacc | cubud: X11 clients are actually applications (e.g. firefox, chrome, xterm, ...) that connect to the X11 server that provides that IO display service, kind of :) | 22:31 |
| cubud | Bookmarked, thanks | 22:31 |
| cubud | Oh I see | 22:31 |
| cubud | X11 is a service to apps, therefore a server | 22:31 |
| Phil42 | tomorrow is splurge on lunch day, where should i go? | 22:31 |
| test4 | jamesd: okay so final mysql and such sync up, but the mysql version is new so theres no problem? | 22:32 |
| yacc | cubud: normally the DISPLAY is defined via the DISPLAY environment variable, nowadays, >99.9% it's :0.0 | 22:32 |
| yacc | empty string before : => localhost | 22:33 |
| yacc | 0 => display 0 | 22:33 |
| jamesd | test4: usually not, that is part of testing and validation, but if you aren't using the functionality of the latest version your data should transfer painlessly. | 22:33 |
| yacc | .0 => screen 0 (not to confuse with modern XRandR based multiple display support if you have more than one display) | 22:33 |
| cubud | I am thinking of replacing my virtual machine with this with a solid state drive in it http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/intel-nuc-dn2820fykh-celeron-dual-core-24-ghz-a75nf | 22:34 |

| test4 | jamesd: hey one more question..what if it does change? can i some how sync it when new data is entered or whatnot in old server it syncs the same to new? wouldnt work cause i need to dump mysql data and enter it in new server? | 22:39 |
| jamesd | test4: rsync... can transerfer/update only what has changed.. mysql makes things more complicated... if you don't do mysqldump | 22:40 |

| === Bish_ is now known as Bish | ||
| jamesd | test4: yes | 22:48 |
| test4 | jamesd: sry to bother you more but servers have bind, where does this come into things.. easier to change dns or what? | 22:53 |
| jamesd | test4: is a database server... you need to change the nameservers that serve dns for your domain to make it happen. | 22:55 |

| webgen | hey guys I got this idea. is it possible to load my dual boot linux partition directly from virtual machine on windows? is there way to avoid virtual partition? | 22:57 |
| Kdworak84 | Hello everyone | 22:58 |
| Kdworak84 | I got a big problem with my ubuntu | 22:59 |
| Jordan_U | webgen: Yes you can boot your physical Ubuntu partition from a VM. What do you mean by virtual partitions? | 22:59 |
| webgen | virtual partition basically the one that virtualbox creates on every new VM :) | 22:59 |
| ansam | #bookz | 22:59 |
| rannonga | no thats the disk for the virtual machine | 22:59 |
| Kdworak84 | yesterday I was getting two VM servers to connect to internet thru bridged adapters, and today my host machine cant find a network config file on boot up | 22:59 |
| webgen | Jordan_U thanks anyway I will research, i just wondered if it was possible. that solves many of my problems :) | 22:59 |
| ansam | join #bookz | 23:00 |
| rannonga | lol | 23:00 |
| webgen | Kdworak84, what do you mean network config file? | 23:00 |
| webgen | Kdworak84 just cant see the bridge adapters ? | 23:00 |
| Kdworak84 | well when the gui thing on boot up starts lighting up those dots, well mine takes a long time and says something like: | 23:01 |
| Kdworak84 | waiting for up to 60 more seconds for network configuration | 23:01 |
| Kdworak84 | hold on ill reboot and give u exact output | 23:01 |
| Jordan_U | webgen: The way that I would approach it would be to pass the partition as a "drive" to Virtualbox, and pass a small image containing just grub on it for the VM to actually boot from (since Ubuntu's partition won't contain a bootloader). For that grub image you could use Super GRUB2 Disk or create your own with grub-mkrescue. | 23:01 |
| kaneko | hi everyone | 23:02 |
| kaneko | its my first time on xubuntu | 23:02 |
| kaneko | so i try to chat | 23:02 |
| Kdworak84 | I think it has something to do with the /etc/udev/rules.d/ folder cause i deleted a file i needed to delete on my VM servers on my host machine | 23:02 |
| webgen | Jordan_U thanks very much, i ll have to tinker alot I see, making fake grub things sound ultra new to me xD | 23:03 |
| Kdworak84 | Waiting for Network Configuration.... | 23:03 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest39328 | ||
| Kdworak84 | Waiting up to 60 more seconds for Network Configuration | 23:03 |
| Kdworak84 | then it boots fine | 23:03 |
| Kdworak84 | but doesnt see my wifi | 23:03 |
| Jordan_U | webgen: If you use Super GRUB2 Disk you shouldn't have to tinker at all. I expect Ubuntu to boot without any modification with a VirtualBox VM configured as I described. | 23:04 |
| webgen | Kdworak84 um, what if u reinstall the virtual box itself? I dont understand what could be missing, I have met situations when the device doesnt show up in Bridged adapter drop down menu but nothing like what you've said :S | 23:04 |
| webgen | Jodran_U so how that would be in details? I create a VDI file or something (virtual partition) how do i write grub on it? or you mean GRUB2 thing can be passed on to virtualbox without converting it to anything? | 23:05 |
| Kdworak84 | webgen: the problem is not with the VBox, its now with the whole host system network. | 23:05 |
| Kdworak84 | like I said I deleted a file in /etc/udev/rules.d/ | 23:06 |
| Yengas | anyone managed to start elder scrolls online beta on ubuntu? | 23:06 |

| webgen | Jordan_U so I downloaded the super_grub_disk iso file, sounds interesting, i think its easier than i thought, i just mount it in VBox and thats it ? :D | 23:10 |
| Jordan_U | webgen: What is the exact name of the file you downloaded? | 23:10 |
| webgen | Jordan_U super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso | 23:11 |
| Jordan_U | webgen: I would use http://forja.cenatic.es/frs/download.php/file/1564/super_grub2_disk_hybrid_2.00s1-beta5.iso instead. And yes, just attach that iso as a CDROM drive to the VM, configure that VM to boot from CD, and at boot select the "Detect any GRUB2 Configuration file" option. | 23:13 |
| webgen | Jordan_U I am on ubuntu side right now ill have to reboot in order to test but i ll be back | 23:14 |
| webgen | Jordan_U you sure beta version would be better ? :D | 23:14 |

I think the latter is the better choice (and it's my fault that you have to choose at all, so sorry about that). | 23:20 |
