Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported - google no help, any suggestions very much appreciated! [00:06] No problem by the way, was guest32324 [00:07] whatever that number was [00:10] Boa noite. === doioche is now known as Dioche [00:11] Estou com uma dúvida sobre a particação Swap do Ubuntu 14.04 [00:12] Instalei o Gparted, formatei a particação de ativei. [00:12] Agora ela está funcionando corretamente. [00:12] <_blk> K`zan, is that gMTP package that you installed made for 12.04 or did you just grab anything? Looks like you either need to find one that works with 12.04 or recompile it yourself [00:12] Porém sempre que desligo o notebook e ligo novamente ele desativa o swap. [00:12] Still googling with no help so far, so many pages of issues with this and not one solution :-/. [00:13] Tem como deixar ativo permanentemente? [00:14] <_blk> Dioche, english or try #ubuntu-pt (if I got that right) [00:14] Oh sorry [00:14] well. [00:15] I formated my hardisk, and designed a linux-swap [00:15] When i on my laptop that partition is disable. [00:16] I install a gparted and formated again that partition and enable. [00:17] K`zan: you need to recompile such application. [00:17] But when i off my laptop and on again the patition is disable. How a turn enable permanently that partition [00:17] ? === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [00:17] when creating a new folder and trying to name it '.ssh' it jumps back to 'Untitled Folder' [00:17] is this a bug? [00:18] I'm using nautilus [00:18] <_blk> Dioche, looks like you're missing an entry in /etc/fstab to automatically mount the swap partition [00:18] <_blk> Dioche, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq see "Activating the Swap Partition" [00:19] Oh thanks, i will see! [00:19] _blk: just apt-get installed it. [00:20] <_blk> bencc, .ssh probably already exists and it's just hidden.. activate hidden files (CTRL+H in nautilus) [00:20] heru-htl: Will track down the source and give it ago, thanks! [00:21] <_blk> K`zan, then recompiling is the way to fix it (unless you find a ppa which already distributes a fixed version). If you're not a developer this is not an easy procedure, and updating to 14.04 might be the easier path [00:21] K`zan: check the related information here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20714343/gtk-error-gtk-2-x-symbols-detected [00:25] heru-htl: Got this: checking for GTK3... no [00:25] checking for GTK2... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4.9) were not met: [00:25] No package 'gtk+-2.0' found [00:25] did an apt-cache search but no gtp++-2.0 [00:25] gtk [00:32] heru-htl: progress, but now: Requested 'libmtp >= 1.1.6' but version of libmtp is 1.1.3 [00:32] guess I need to make that from source too ?

[00:40] I'm having trouble getting Conky to start at boot in Xubuntu. I followed the simple instructions on Ubuntu's site but it still doesn't work. [00:40] Anyone know what might work for me? [00:41] Wu117: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/i386/bsdmainutils/filelist /usr/bin/hexdump [00:41] vinch: this is a support channel only, so there has to be an actual question. for general discussion there's #ubuntu-offtopic === UltimateNate is now known as TheUltimate|_| [00:42] daftykins, how do i get the drivers to update without an active internet working on that same pc? [00:42] CarlFK: thanks, but in my standard 14.04 docker image: /usr/bin/hexdump: ERROR: cannot open `/usr/bin/hexdump' (No such file or directory) [00:42] CarlFK: Do you know if hexdump is part of another package? [00:42] html_: drivers for what? [00:43] daftykins, network drivers [00:43] I am having a problem. If I do wine /path/to/win32app.exe into my startup on linuxmint 16 I start the app with the default configuration. When I click on the app, and click run in wine it works perfectly with my settings. [00:43] html_: wireless? [00:43] daftykins , I am so sory about it , cuz I might got a wrong room / channel , . . . [00:43] daftykins, no, desktop [00:44] Wu117: bsdmainutils [00:44] html_: *blink* drivers for a wireless network interface? [00:44] the problem is that I want my settings and not the default, so how can I start my app just as though I clicked on it. [00:44] Wu117: bsdmainutils is the package name [00:44] at startup [00:44] qin_: CarlFK thank you! [00:44] Looking to get conky to start at boot, instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpConky don't do it, any suggestions? Using Xubuntu 14.04 (xubuntu irc is a dead channel) [00:45] RippSteakface: I just added it to my login startup. [00:45] daftykins, no. there is no wireless at all on this desktop. [00:45] kazuhira: conky that is [00:45] kazuhira: I did what the instructions say on that site and it still doesn't boot at start :( [00:45] daftykins, no. there is no wireless at all on this desktop. === varunendra is now known as Guest42163 [00:46] html_: so is it actually a situation where the wired networking isn't working on a clean install? [00:46] kazuhira: I have to open the terminal and type conky & to start it [00:46] daftykins, its acting funny [00:46] define 'acting funny' ? [00:47] RippSteakface, what desktop are you using [00:48] Xubuntu 14.04 [00:48] Beldar: Xubuntu 14.04 [00:48] daftykins, i installed the server then juju with a few others the desktop- when i go to the networking icon at the top-right, it tells me " device not manged" [00:48] RippSteakface, Does xubuntu have startup applications? [00:48] How do I open a .x86 file in Ubuntu? [00:49] Beldar: Yes, I did exactly what it says here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpConky [00:49] Beldar: For Xubuntu [00:50] Beldar: Is it assuming that I have some sort of script to open the terminal and run conky or something? [00:51] RippSteakface, You did this, "In the Applications menu open Settings Manager and select Session and Startup. On the Application Autostart tab click the Add button. In the resulting dialog box give the name as "Conky" and the command as conky.

[00:52] RippSteakface, And no conky at all or no custom conky when rebooted? [00:52] Beldar: No conky at all. I have to open the terminal and run "conky &" [00:53] Beldar: I'm still a bit of a noob [00:54] RippSteakface, Been awhile since I used xubuntu, not sure. [00:54] Beldar: Yeah it's straightforward but I don't get why it isn't working === doioche is now known as dioche [00:54] Beldar: I mean should I try making the command "conky &" instead of just "conky"? [00:55] _blk, thanks man! The swap is work now! Very thanks! [00:55] Beldar: Wouldn't hurt to try I guess. [00:55] <_blk> dioche, You're welcome [00:56] RippSteakface, there is /user/bin/conky [00:56] RippSteakface: that shouldnt make a difference [00:56] html_: aaaah, as in you started with ubuntu server? [00:57] conky should work though that's what mine says [00:57] Beldar: I literally just finished re-doing my conky [00:57] are you using the default config or custom? [00:57] Beldar: Do I do something with that? === decentrality is now known as digitalextremist [00:57] Is there a way to move the close/max/min buttons to the right in 14.04? [00:57] sorry that was intended for RippSteakface [00:58] hi, i want to install 14.04. Before i had a hard disk with 2 partitions. One for windows and one for 12.04. Now i want to format everything and make just one partition for 14.04. But i am confused with swap and all those options... [00:58] tzvi: I'm using a custom conkyrc that I edited [00:58] tzvi: It boots with terminal using "conky" but not in my startup applications in Xubuntu. [00:58] RippSteakface: where is the file? /etc/conky/conkyrc? [00:59] tzvi: One sec [00:59] RippSteakface, You could try it in the command in Autostart [00:59] daftykins, yes, yes the sh parts work but it dont show up with the gui to mange the network [00:59] tzvi: It's in /home/*name*/.conkyrc [00:59] html_: ok can you open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then do "pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces" [01:00] are you doing this here -> http://i.stack.imgur.com/Wchtx.png [01:00] Beldar: ^ [01:00] tzvi: That's what I use yes [01:01] sup_, it's recommended to create a swap partition about the size of your RAM, another partition (ext4 usually) mount point /, and perhaps an EFI boot partition if needed. You can create more for other mount points as desired [01:01] Beldar: What command would I use instead of "conky" [01:01] PhlowHome: but why do i need them? swap and one / arent enough? [01:02] they can be [01:02] RippSteakface, You have other help now, they have made this a threesome, I don't do that. [01:02] you may want another partition to share with windows, etc [01:02] Beldar: sorry, I'm out. [01:02] Beldar: Hahaha I just want to solve it [01:02] sup_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DiskSpace [01:04] PhlowHome: no i think i dont need one. Its only a 80gb ssd. But now because i tried before to install 14.04 i see a swap and a partition with 14.04. When i press to install on the one that says 14.04 i get no root file system is defined [01:05] sup_, if you don't need them, remove them and create them fresh [01:06] ok [01:06] tzvi: No ideas eh? [01:07] sup_, not sure I'd put swap on the ssd, that's a pretty small ssd [01:07] Sorry no clue. [01:08] PhlowHome: would this be a problem? i mean i have an external drive. Do you say it because i may not have enough free space for apps and stuff or for another reason? [01:08] sup_, space, not performance [01:08] Hi, I need to update my BIOS but I have no CD/DVD drive and I tried unetbootin to make the Windows-based ISO with the BIOS update load to a USB drive and that didn't work. I have no Windows installation. Anyone help? [01:08] PhlowHome: its okay i guess. i had ubuntu in 35 gb total before... [01:08] 8, 16, 32GB of that ssd for swap is a waste [01:09] qqq [01:10] PhlowHome: i hope that i will buy a new bigger ssd soon. thanks for help ! [01:10] I've been searching for answers but haven't found a solution [01:11] wolftune, you may need to change bios settings to boot from the flash usb first [01:11] wolftune: should work just burn it and boot it [01:11] wolftune, many bios have the ability to boot to a specific device right in the bios boot menu [01:12] dw1: burn it? [01:12] wolftune: you dont need windows the ISO will be a complete bootable OS [01:12] wolftune: burn/write whatever [01:12] PhlowHome: I'm trying to MAKE a bootable device [01:12] dw1: ? [01:13] dw1: my computer has no CD/DVD drive [01:13] I know I don't need Windows, but I don't know how to use Ubuntu to get the ISO onto a USB stick so it will be usable for booting [01:13] wolftune: are you sure youre booting it right [01:14] wolftune, unetbootin should be able to get you running, if your system tries to boot from that device [01:14] dw1: I can't even *try* to boot it if I don't have the ISO on something to tell the computer to boot with [01:14] PhlowHome: ok, so let me explain what happens: it successfully boots using unetbootin… [01:14] or try some other options, pendrivelinux.com [01:15] but then it just says "default" and there's no other options [01:15] so nothing happens, it just sits at the unetbootin boot screen [01:15] when I boot with the USB that unetbootin made [01:15] wolftune, is this a recent system with UEFI? [01:15] yes, but I have secure boot turned off [01:15] that sounds good [01:16] maybe the iso is incomplete === Willis is now known as Guest60644 [01:16] wolftune, what OS are you trying to run from the unetbootin? [01:17] PhlowHome: I am using Ubuntu to run unetbootin itself, I am using an ISO that is supposed to just be a self-contained BIOS update ISO [01:17] wolftune, you probably want secure boot on then [01:17] here's the README for the ISO: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/gduj18uc.txt [01:18] PhlowHome: really? So I need to turn secure boot back on? And then I can turn it off after the BIOS update and get back to my Ubuntu install? [01:18] yes, you need secure boot on for uefi to properly work [01:18] ^no [01:19] so maybe turning on Secure Boot will be all that's needed to make the unetbootin generated USB drive boot fully?? [01:19] seems to be booting fine [01:19] well, ok, yes, BOOTING is happening [01:19] I boot and get the unetbootin menu for what to run [01:19] but running something from there isn't happening [01:19] try it and see [01:20] PhlowHome: ok, I suppose there's no risk, right? I can just turn it back on… (I so wish this Secure Boot crap didn't exist, I don't trust it) [01:20] daftykins: what were you saying "no" to? [01:20] wolftune, can probably leave it on to install ubuntu too [01:21] PhlowHome: really? [01:21] wolftune: PhlowHome's statement regarding secure boot and UEFI. [01:21] I already have Ubuntu fully installed [01:21] wolftune: you should boot back into ubuntu and use 'dd' to write the image to the flash drive. [01:21] almost everything is working great [01:21] daftykins: oh ok thanks! [01:21] I couldn't get ubuntu to even install on a recent MSI laptop without secure boot enabled [01:21] daftykins: have a link to simple instructions for using dd in this case? [01:22] wolftune: it's a terminal application so first put your flash drive in and run "sudo fdisk -l" to tell us which device your flash drive is, probably /dev/sdb [01:22] PhlowHome: well, that's all irrelevant to me, Ubuntu is fine, I'm just trying to update my BIOS [01:22] daftykins: ok [01:22] fair enough [01:23] Hey, I don;t think my php-fpm service is running, but I don't know how to check / fix it. Help? [01:23] daftykins: I think it is /deve/sdc (sdb is the other part of the hybrid drive that's built in I think) [01:24] wolftune: ok, its size should match up with what you know of your flash drive. next up, "sudo dd if=/path/to/your/downloaded.iso of=/dev/sdc" [01:24] hoylemd: try #ubuntu-server or ##php [01:24] do you prefer serving files out of /srv/www or /home/user/public_html ? [01:25] wolftune: it won't give any progress whilst it's writing, but it will be... so just watch and wait and it will eventually complete and return to the prompt without echo'ing anything [01:25] daftykins: thanks! [01:25] looks like it did it, so now I'll reboot and that should work! Back in a bit (I hope!) [01:26] wolftune: no problemo, careful with the update! === varunend- is now known as varunendra [01:27] I'm getting a really strange error where my wireless card will surrepitiously reassociate with the AP, once a second or less. [01:27] nope. Darn. [01:27] Eventually it just sort of flattens out and doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. === varunendra is now known as Guest18737 [01:28] That time I selected USB and it didn't boot [01:28] Perhaps I *do* need secure boot on? [01:28] Or perhaps dd copied the file but didn't make the USB bootable? [01:28] Or perhaps I need to fully erase it first or take some other action? [01:28] is there a later make-bootable command I missed? [01:28] http://imgur.com/zwBqtGS [01:29] ^^ Any ideas? [01:29] That's kern.log. [01:29] Cheekio: doesnt look bad, why [01:29] Well it scrolls like that constantly for pages [01:30] I end up with delayed or dropped packets across all my apps [01:30] Cheekio: are you running custom router firmware [01:31] No, it's a regular old airport [01:31] wolftune: make sure the ISO isn't corrupted [01:32] daftykins: good point, but aside from that, perhaps there's a boot-flag or format issue for the USB also? [01:32] wolftune, rabbit hole... unetbootin should have been just fine [01:32] hmm [01:32] maybe the ISO was indeed bad… [01:33] it happens [01:33] what's this BIOS update you're doing anyway? ) [01:33] * :) [01:33] can also get weird behavior if the ISO gets fragmented on the drive [01:33] daftykins: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/gduj18uc.txt [01:34] daftykins: I had a problem with not staying suspended and reported a bug report and was told I need to update my BIOS and verify if it is still an issue [01:34] ah-har [01:34] burn ISO on proper speed (i.e 8-speed) to reduce fragment [01:34] wolftune: did you confirm your current version? [01:34] daftykins: I know that I'm out of date, yeah [01:34] heru-htl: lol, that doesn't make sense on any possible element whatsoever. [01:35] wolftune: hang on a tick [01:35] k [01:35] :D my apologies men hehehe ... === Jae|slp is now known as Jae [01:35] I'm trying to get a binary "djtgcft"(for programming fpga's) to work and I wondering how to get it to find a set of shared libraries a slightly different verison number then it looks for. 1 example is it looks for libdabs.so.2 and i have libdabs.so.2.11.1 but it doesn't find that one. [01:36] wolftune: are you using the boot menu of this system to select the flash drive? [01:36] like hitting a key to get a boot device menu [01:36] daftykins: yes [01:36] are there two entries for the drive? one for uefi and one not? [01:37] wolftune: ok try entering the BIOS and going to the 'boot' page and see if it lists two boot entries for the flash drive, as PhlowHome is suggesting [01:37] daftykins: ok, I was going to try to check that the ISO is good, but I couldn't find an md5 listed anywhere [01:38] I could try redownloading just in case, maybe several times and check that the md5 is always the same… [01:38] that make any sense? [01:38] indeed it does [01:38] ok [01:38] can you also open the flash drive and see what the contents looks like? [01:40] wolftune: why do you need UEFI bios update with no windows anyway? :) you could just put it in legacy mode and use grub-pc instead of grub-efi.. :) [01:40] the system's firmware is called the UEFI [01:40] therefore it is a UEFI update [01:41] wolftune: you are using grub-efi right [01:41] it doesn't matter whether the OS boots as UEFI or legacy ;) [01:41] dw1: maybe? I never see grub directly as I use ONLY Ubuntu and no dual-boot anything [01:41] is there any disadvantage of installing as legacy? [01:42] in this case, I'm not going to grub at all, as I'm not *installing* any OS [01:42] I'm only trying to update the BIOS [01:42] wolftune: yeah but without grub-efi its not even using efi [01:42] wolftune: it would just fall back to legacy anyway [01:43] dw1: did you not read my messages where the relevance of your question is shown to be non-existant? :) [01:43] I don't know what you mean "it" here. This is booting off a USB drive and has nothing to do with the OS [01:43] wolftune: the boot process [01:43] wolftune: he means well but is wasting your time, don't worry. [01:44] bios boots, bios looks for bootable OS in UEFI. if not using grub-EFI there will be no OS there [01:44] -> fallback to legacy [01:44] well, I redownloaded and got the same md5sum, so I guess that's good [01:44] so updating UEFI in that case would be pointless [01:44] sure [01:45] wolftune, not neccessarily, but that's probably not your problem :) [01:45] dw1: can you please stop talking now, you're showing a clear misunderstanding of the task at hand [01:45] dw1: I'm not installing GRUB at all because this is not running any grub-related OS in this case [01:45] grub is installed and working on my internal Ubuntu install [01:45] daftykins: possibly a pointless task [01:46] daftykins: alright, anyway, contents of the USB is the important thing here [01:46] wolftune: yep what does it look like? [01:46] daftykins: gparted shows no partition table for the USB at all right now [01:46] ooh-err [01:46] that's not a good sign [01:47] the contents are blank otherwise [01:47] maybe I should make a partition table and then try dd again? [01:47] do you see the contents opening the ISO? [01:47] (incidentally, I used the same USB to install Ubuntu, and that worked) [01:47] go back to a bootable flash software, no reason to stick your junk in a blender [01:47] wolftune: yeah and if you would, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit" so i can look at your drives too [01:47] sudo dpkg -l | grep grub-efi shows packages? :) [01:48] PhlowHome: lol. it's really not that big a deal [01:48] there's software that makes this an automated process [01:48] no need to worry about dd offsets, alignments, etc [01:48] i've seen unetbootin screw up on many a situation [01:48] daftykins: sure, but first question: how do I "open" the ISO image? [01:48] dw1: please stop talking, you are wasting time trying to answer what hasn't been asked. [01:49] wolftune: if from comand line, you mount it via loopback [01:49] daftykins: if his grub isnt in EFI theres no point in updated UEFI [01:49] dw1: you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, please stop now.

[02:30] oh wait... I think its working now [02:31] wolftune: interesting that mounting the .iso with "disk image mounter" in nautilus shows no files [02:31] wolftune: if the ISO wasn't designed to be usb bootable, it's not going to boot without you tinkering with it first [02:31] Hmm, I figured out how to mount the ISO and it appears empty [02:31] wolftune: yea === TheDrums is now known as DalekSec [02:31] module000: it is designed to be bootable [02:31] wolftune: most of those(like HP & lenovo) ISO BIOS updates run FreeDOS, and you can repack those with syslinux to boot from usb instead of CD [02:31] vashidu, So its not a driver issue? because youtube is practically unusable [02:31] module000: hmm… [02:31] that's sounds promising [02:32] wolftune: i was just going to try running freedos and copying the files from the .iso myself but no files in the .iso :) [02:32] module000: it's this one: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032118 [02:32] dw1: yeah, crazy, so what is that ISO? Why can't I see any files in it? Is it no good? [02:32] it has an internal fat filesystem, 7zip sees it [02:32] wolftune: its the same with version 17 [02:32] vashidu, Removed the NVidia drivers. Rebooting now.... and it works \o/ [02:33] dw1: version 17? [02:33] PhlowHome: hmm ok [02:33] wolftune: yeah if you change the url from 18 to 17 you can get the older version [02:33] <_blk> wolftune, the bios update doesn't rely on a filesystem that's why it appears empty [02:33] dw1: but you're saying that doesn't help, right? [02:33] wolftune: right [02:33] k [02:33] vashidu, I take that back.... now its hanging after the login screen [02:33] sigh [02:33] _blk: ok thanks [02:34] sooo glad I have all of my dev tools on windows xD [02:34] wolftune: searching that Twist model & "usb bios update" gets this...it sounds like you aren't the only one: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/ThinkPad-S230u-usb-boot/td-p/975467 [02:34] Just installed 14.04 and had to use nomodeset to boot the live usb.

[02:34] wolftune: that doesn't have a good solution though, it ends with the poster just explaining how to disable secure boot. [02:35] neeed halp lol [02:35] dw1, not really [02:35] module000: :( thanks though, damn [02:35] wolftune: i have a lenovo x1 carbon at work, i had the same issue. i ended up burning it to a physical CD and booting it with a usb dvd drive [02:36] module000: so I should just get a USB DVD drive I guess [02:36] vashidu, Still not working. As soon as I log in I get "System program problem detected. Do you want to report the problem now?" [02:36] hi [02:36] Thanks for that detailed info Ubuntu :/ [02:36] wolftune: i dont see it making difference when we cant even see the files in the .iso [02:37] it doesn't look like a uefi bootable image, so secure boot off, legacy boot on, and booting to the device as non-uefi should get you in [02:38] everything but my cursor is frozen on my display? Any ideas what's causing this? killing Xorg fixed it last time, but that's no better than rebooting.

[05:03] Hi all, I have setup-ed a Local DNS in Centos , masterdns.arrivu.local and while ping from ubuntu its not replying for masterdns.arrivu.local , I have added dns-nameserver in /etc/network/interface too but its not working, Any one guide me to fix the issue [05:05] babinlonston: think a local hostname would be need to set up in a DNS zone or /etc/hosts [05:06] babinlonston: why not just use 127.0.0.1 [05:08] babinlonston: i use dhcp, so i installed bind9 and added nameserver 127.0.0.1 to the end of /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head [05:09] babinlonston: and added my 2 dhcp-provided nameservers and 8.8.8.8 as forwarders in named.conf.options for good measure [05:10] babinlonston, as far as your dns server setup in CentOS is concerned, which is where I suspect the problem is, we may not be able to help you much with that [05:11] oh yeah, not ubuntu :p [05:11] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irMeHmlxE9s [05:11] winxplague, please don't do that. [05:12] this is not the channel for it. [05:12] Ok i have installed DNS in 192.168.1.15 with hostname masterdns.arrivu.local. And my client machine 192.168.1.50 , now I'm pinging from client machine 192.168.1.50 to dns using ping masterdns.arrivu.local its not replying for ping and if i run dig masterdns.arrivu.local the query was successfully, so what may be the issue [05:12] not_phunyguy: Ubuntu was my Client machine and im facing issue in ubuntu machines not in centos [05:12] ahh.. [05:13] does centos have a firewall? [05:13] Only one server here it build with centos and other are client machine there are 30 client machines with ubuntu 12.04 [05:13] babinlonston: how is the client supposed to find out that hostname [05:13] not_phunyguy: no its disabled [05:13] babinlonston, well if the client is resolving it, but ping isn't... that leads me to believe it's the ping that isn't working... not the lookup. [05:16] i know not_phunyguy , sorry [05:16] won't happen again [05:17] wrong channel I assume?

[07:50] meek_geek did you install from source? [07:51] meek_geek: If you still have the build dir, and the project's makefile has an uninstall target, you may be able to uninstall it by cd-ing into that dir and running sudo make uninstall [07:51] yeah wat geirha said [07:51] kdz, yep i download tar and then make install [07:52] fishsponge: run df -i on the host that actually has the btrfs [07:52] I can't SSH into the host, sadly... it's a ReadyNAS box with SSH disabled... [07:53] thats sad [07:53] ssh is your friend [07:53] geirha, kdz would the config files also go with this command ? [07:53] On my ReadyNAS Duo, over NFS I can see the inodes... but my ReadyNAS 104 seems to be running BTRFS filesystem, which isn't telling me the number of inodes over NFS... [07:53] meek_geek only if you add the remove all command witch geirha will explain [07:54] rsync is enabled on the ReadyNAS... but there's no way to get inodes over rsync protocol of course... so how do I do it over NFS with the BTRFS filesystem on there? [07:57] meek_geek: Likely not [07:57] geirha, after uninstall can i remove the respective share dir ? [07:58] meek_geek: If it's still there, then there probably wasn't an uninstall === mike_ is now known as Guest99876 [07:59] does anyone know how to get the number of inodes used and available on a BTRFS filesystem over NFS?

[08:09] meek_geek: yeah [08:10] dw1, how to use it ? [08:10] make install ? [08:10] Anyone know if there is a program that will operate my Canon Pixma MG1240 scanner, I have a program called scangearmp which is not running the gedit file?

The packages I downloaded have a number of addon packages and a file which has the scangear but it has an INSTALL file which can be opened with gedit, that file is supposed to open int the terminal to run scangear which its not. [08:13] and `cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness` will output `1` [08:14] cloudy_nz: I recall trying it and id did not work.

[08:17] *Terminal [08:18] Bluewolf: INSTALL files are instructions on how to install [08:19] They're essentially a more specific README [08:19] Bluewolf: find the debian package on canon's site.. like http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/contents/ASIA/EN/0100302702.html but for your printer [08:20] CornishPasty: dw1: This is what is in the install file but I'm not sure what it means or what to do - http://pastebin.com/GUKkJjYF [08:22] Bluewolf: i dont see your model at http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/?personal [08:23] Bluewolf: for a manual install you would follow the INSTALL and run the 3 commands... but a .deb package is preferable === Timmy_ is now known as Guest88005 [08:25] dw1: .deb package is preferable, There are .deb packages that install the drivers? [08:25] Bluewolf: canon may have them [08:25] Bluewolf: choose your model and click software/drivers [08:26] does anyone know how to get the number of inodes used and available on a BTRFS filesystem over NFS? Usually I type "df -i", but with a BTRFS filesystem over NFS it's showing "0" for everything... any ideas??

[08:28] PhlowHome i also thought it was strange but its a great feature. special with jailing on proftpd [08:28] dw1: It appears they don't have it - Canon Pixma MG1240 [08:29] Bluewolf: are you sure.... nothing on google for that model [08:33] Bluewolf: are you sure thats the model [08:33] dw1: So far nothing there ether, strange as its not as if I have not had it working in Linux.

I can run it ok, there are no font path issues, but when I open up program windows, they show up without any text displaying [08:52] what is apparmor and can I turn it off? [08:53] Bluewolf: well you can get the package here (64bit) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/amd64/libtiff4/3.9.5-2ubuntu1.6 [08:53] Bluewolf: scangear might be a separate package - not sure [08:54] Bluewolf: oh you install it nm [08:55] gry-: google should tell you what it is... i have never needed to turn it off, myself. [08:55] gry-: which is why i know very little about it :) [08:56] kdz: I found a driver for the firmware RAID chip my mobo uses, but the drivers are for RHEL and SUSE [08:56] which is more like ubuntu? [08:56] RHEL? [08:57] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: prety sure RHEL uses RPM [08:57] dw1: Yeah I installed it on my laptop which has Ubuntu 12.04 (No problems and just like Mint), But now in 14.04 it wont install that one package in the software center which I think is essential to getting it running. How can I install it through the terminal? [08:57] Bluewolf: which package [08:58] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: http://google.com/search?q=Intel+ICH-10R+ubuntu [08:58] nope [08:58] more like rhel indeed [08:58] but i wouldnt expect drivers to be hard to repackage if theyre already coded [08:58] like theyre already using some linux-ey stuff.. probably already compiled or something [08:59] yadda yadda yadda do.. asking everyone to google is not good but i wont complain much, i know this folk will yell if its useless [08:59] dw1: I have drivers up to RHEL6.1 [08:59] Bluewolf: http://askubuntu.com/questions/449571/dependency-is-not-satisfiable-libtiff4-when-trying-to-install-lightworks-on-ubu [08:59] and SLES11 === _include is now known as BIgInt === BIgInt is now known as BigInt === BigInt is now known as Float [09:00] Bluewolf: looks like you have to install the saucy package if you want libtiff4 === Float is now known as string [09:00] Bluewolf: no guarantees...

Usually I type "df -i", but with a BTRFS filesystem over NFS it's showing "0" for everything... any ideas??

[09:10] gry-: so even if a program contains an exploit it may not be able to do as much harm [09:13] dw1: Okay it worked!, the package is installed. Sadly the other package has decided it has an issue with life - Dependency is not satisfiable: scangearmp-common (>=1.80) what now? [09:13] Bluewolf: get scangearmp-common and install it :) [09:15] dw1: I'm confused - scangearmp-common_1.80-1_amd64 is the package which is installed? [09:15] this internet is crap [09:15] https://pastee.org/dxfzz in dmesg, internet keeps hopping, what to do? [09:15] Bluewolf: hmm, that should satisfy it [09:16] Bluewolf: you are on 64bit and all packages are 64 bit right [09:16] Bluewolf: amd64 wont satisfy an i386 package [09:16] gry-: blame demon :P [09:16] hey guys, I have a new Laptop with an Intel Iris pro 5200 and have some little graphicbugs, is here anyone who knows how I can update/patch my videodrivers?? :) [09:17] dw1: I'm sure there 64 bit, scangearmp-common_1.80-1_i386.deb is also installed? [09:17] CornishPasty, what do I do to it for it to work? i can't even load couple web pages without it resetting [09:18] Bluewolf: hmm [09:19] Bluewolf: are you sure they're installed? dpkg -l | grep scangear [09:20] gry-: Is it WPA2-enterprise? [09:20] CornishPasty, absolutely no idea [09:21] Also, this is gonna sound stupid, but have you tried rebooting, gry-? [09:22] dw1: I take its not installed [09:22] dw1: There are two packages which are not installed out of the 8 I have, the one is coming up with Dependency is not satisfiable: libtiff4 again. Though the other package that said that is installed? [09:22] i know it is wpa2 but the rest is greek to me [09:23] gry-: Are you at home or an office? Do you log in with username/password or just a pre-filled password? [09:23] gry-: its possible a neighbour is sending deauthentication packets trying to capture your login handshake to crack it :) [09:24] dw1: looks like it's a local deauth [09:25] Bluewolf: hard to say .. keep fiddling :/ [09:25] Hmm, OUI looks like it's a Netgear [09:26] * CornishPasty has found the problem [09:26] CornishPasty: home, only password, it's not prefilled [09:26] dw1: That package you gave me to download is amd64 I think I need i386.deb? [09:26] Don't I? [09:26] Bluewolf: possibly [09:26] Bluewolf: but if yoru system supports 64 you should use all 64 [09:27] gry-: I'm afraid I don't really know of any other suggestions. According to the deauth reasons, it *could* be the router [09:27] dw1: Ah where do I find it because there is nothing on that site you gave me, I try to but lack of knowledge about lots of things (Linux in general does not help :D) [09:28] Bluewolf: just replace the amd64 with i386 in the URL: http://packages.ubuntu.com/eo/saucy/i386/libtiff4/download [09:28] dw1: Okay trying now :D [09:29] hi fellows > can someone recommend an application to keep track of different changes in softwares , versions, but also private data ? [09:29] CornishPasty, works fine for 2-3 other computers [09:29] it doesn't have to be extremely complex ..just to do the task ... [09:30] lala [09:32] Bluewolf: try not to end up with duplicates of everything. :) [09:33] Bluewolf: i would try for all i386 or all amd64 with related stuff [09:33] Bluewolf: otherwise parts of the driver may not be able to talk to each other :/ [09:34] dw1: I fear that is the foolish mistake I am battling with, Confirm with my 64bit requires i386 packages installed? [09:34] Bluewolf: you should do one or the other ideally === DrJae is now known as Jae [09:37] dw1: Understood, now my Software Center has gone funny. Its like frozen halfway through an install and when I close it an start it up its still the same? - Why do my computer issues get worse :) [09:37] God, I feel like a fool [09:38] trying to run make for ddrescue, and getting "c++: command not found" [09:38] Try me :D [09:38] gcc is installed [09:38] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: sudo apt-get install gcc++ [09:39] says it's selecting a ton of packages for regexes [09:39] "E: unable to correct problems, you have broken packages" [09:40] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: hmmwhatsthisdo|L maybe its g++ i forget [09:40] Now I really feel like a fool for not trying that [09:40] thought it would have come with gcc [09:40] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: yeah it doesnt [09:40] at least the drive is presenting itself to the computer now [09:41] awesome [09:41] hopefully I can pull everything off of it and onto the RAID === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [09:43] Hello All friend [09:43] i hope u are all fine & doing well [09:43] Hello.

[09:44] dw1: After installing the package successfully my Software Center does not acknowledge that is installed as there is still an install button, why? [09:44] 12.04 version [09:44] Bluewolf: and it shows in dpkg -l | grep in terminal as installed (ii at left column) [09:44] Saeedullah: Ah. Give me a minute. [09:45] okay friend [09:45] gry brother [09:45] Bluewolf: ? [09:45] whats the command that tells me whats the largest folder (in terms of content) in the current path? [09:46] dw1: Yeah it does? [09:47] Saeedullah: install samba and install smbfs, then you can share folders by right-click I believe. [09:47] Bluewolf: sounds good.. :/ [09:47] PeErLesS: "ncdu" is really good for this. [09:47] gry-: thanks [09:48] dona [09:48] PeErLesS: https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_MZMwAVJYoA/TqwarN6O7eI/AAAAAAAABcE/qXAiqDA6hss/s1600/folder-size-ncdu.png [09:48] is lubuntu light enough to run smoothly on netbook? [09:48] PeErLesS: No problem. [09:48] ty [09:48] cactuswizard: yeah [09:48] cactuswizard: Depends on the specs. [09:48] gry- brotheri samba on the internet or unbuntu already have builitn [09:49] cactuswizard: pretty happy with it on a weak acerOne [09:49] Saeedullah, both samba and sambafs are installed, but you do not see 'share' option by right-click? [09:49] okay [09:49] now, better question [09:49] Anyone used ddrescue to clone a drive? [09:50] I need to know what options I should use/add if I'm reading to/from /dev/sdX and /dev/mapper devices [09:50] i share but i want to access from windows xp give me this information message you don't have permisssion [09:50] the manual mentions something about possibly specifying the size if it's a raw device, but I'm not sure if those are considered raw devices or something else [09:50] how can solved this problem [09:50] ? [09:51] . how to setup proper env vars? I mean for all consoles? [09:51] Saeedullah: Oh. I see. [09:51] gry-: i don't remember the specs atm, been about two years without any use but maybe i'll give it a try anyway [09:51] Can anyone tell me, I updated the openssl version using download and compile, do i need to recompile apache to fix the heartbleed issue ? [09:52] dw1: Yeah they all have ii on the left column and are all i386. The INSTALL file is still not running. libtiff4 there are two amd64 in the terminal. [09:53] Bluewolf: the 3 commands in the INSTALL file would be run manually, but shouldnt be needed because you installed a package version of scangear [09:53] Bluewolf: so what happens when you type scangearmp [09:55] dw1: Belive it or not but it runs :D. But why does it have to be typed in the terminal? [09:55] Anyone? I don't want to botch this and break the drive [09:55] Bluewolf: you can add an icon to run it if you like [09:56] Bluewolf: or alt-f2 [09:56] does the recompilation of apache is necessary after upgrading the openssl version [09:57] dw1: I see, I have locked it to the unity bar and it works fine. How do I add an icon? [09:57] Bluewolf: but as far as i know it doesnt automatically add a menu item [09:57] Bluewolf: good question :) [09:59] rameshdahiya: you shouldnt have to compile apache ever [09:59] dw1: Yeah, I have a thing about making things worse :D. That file that is running is not from my INSTALL is it? [09:59] rameshdahiya: its available as a package in the standard repositories [10:00] file /etc/environment making and entry in this file of DISPLAY=;99 would make an env var for all consoles no? [10:00] Bluewolf: as far as i can tell you never ran the commands from the install file you just looked at it [10:01] Bluewolf: or did you run that make, make install stuff in terminal? [10:01] oh. my. god. [10:01] I think it's working [10:01] ddrescue is saying it's not finding any errors yet [10:02] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: maybe its just a loose cable :p [10:02] I think the issue is PCB-related [10:02] dw1: No all I did was type scangearmp in the terminal and it worked, when I try and double click the INSTALL file it just opens up in gedit and thats it. [10:02] it wasn't identifying itself to the bios and was making some nasty clicks [10:02] Bluewolf: yeah then its running from the package [10:02] Bluewolf: the INSTALL is just a readme file telling you what commands to run. reading it doesnt do anything [10:03] I think it was the PCB thinking it couldn't initialize the disk and urgently parking the heads [10:03] Bluewolf: a lot of source packages have an INSTALL file that is just a readme [10:03] Bluewolf: its not meant to be executed [10:04] Bluewolf: you read it to find out what to execute. :) [10:04] can anyone think of a safe way to check whether or not the output disk is actually getting data? [10:04] and not just all 0s? [10:04] dw1: Yeah but on the Ubuntu 12.04 the INSTALL file is how I was running it, it was being executed because I set it in properties? [10:05] Bluewolf: that sounds impossible.. the INSTALL file wouldnt run even if you made it executable [10:05] Bluewolf: unless it had a #!/bin/sh at the top line telling it what shell to use [10:05] Bluewolf: and you would notice a bunch of errors [10:05] dw1: I've seen INSTALL files that were scripts [10:05] hmmwhatsthisdo|L: more often its install.sh [10:06] there were manual build instructions that were commented out [10:06] I want to set DISPLAY=:99 for ALL users/ apps and consoles. How can I set it up. ? (using export DISPLAY=:99 only gives me that for current console session) . [10:07] dw1: I'm telling you because its working now in my Ubuntu 12.04 and there is no bash! at the top (I can put everything in that gedit file onto pastebin for you to see) the only file that has bash! at the top is called autogen.sh. [10:07] dw1: And there were no errors ether? [10:09] Bluewolf: go into the folder with INSTALL in terminal. move it to its own isolated directory (mkdir x; cp INSTALL x) then make it executable (cd x; chmod +x INSTALL) then try to run it (./INSTALL) see what happens :) [10:11] dw1: Ah yeah you lost me, but seriously in 12.04 thats how I was running it bu the INSTALL file after installing those packages [10:11] Bluewolf: strange :) [10:12] Hello All friend [10:12] i share puble folder now i access from another computer give me this message You might not have permission to use this network resource [10:13] dw1: I found strange results appear when I am combined with a computer, it must be a talent of mine which are mostly bad :D [10:13] how can possible to access to open this folder from another system === zokko_ is now known as zokko [10:13] i shared folder in ubuntu [10:13] Bluewolf: haha :) [10:13] Bluewolf: only way to learn :) [10:13] You might not have permission to use this network resource [10:15] dw1: And I'm still learning, this is whats in the install file as is nothing changed- http://pastebin.com/VGtjHWa0 [10:15] Saeedullah: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch09.html [10:15] hello people [10:15] Bluewolf: none of those commands would actually run the program, so i dont think its related to starting it [10:16] i installed samba and share the folder [10:16] You might not have permission to use this network resource [10:16] when access the share folder give me this message You might not have permission to use this network resource [10:16] Saeedullah: you will likely need to authenticate with a user that has permission [10:17] (Novice question, need general directions) Trying to get my Ubuntu Server 14.04 to connect to my HP printer. I have apt-get installed hplib, which seems to be the drivers. But how do I actually print a page? [10:17] Saeedullah: it is not the easiest thing to do :) [10:17] Saeedullah: i usually just use dropbox :) [10:17] why dw1 [10:17] ? [10:19] dw1: That my be the case but thats what it did when I (In my wisdom double clicked it) after I excecuted it as a program. Perhaps I did something which I am unsure of but I highly doubt it. the file type is - installation instructions (text/x-install) [10:20] dw1: Anyway Now that the scangear is working how do I change the icon on the dash or is that asking to much :D [10:20] Bluewolf: right click -> properties maybe [10:20] dw1: On the dash, that does not work? [10:21] Bluewolf: i dont use unity myself. might have to hold alt and/or the windows key at the same time to get right click menu [10:22] Bluewolf: could be more complicated http://askubuntu.com/questions/80627/how-can-i-change-the-icon-of-an-application-in-the-unity-launcher [10:22] how do I install flareget from the software centre in ubuntu 14.04? it's only saying I can "buy" it ???? [10:23] dw1: I guessed it would be complicated - After I ran scangear from the terminal I locked it to the bar so I don't know where the run file is located ether :D [10:23] Bluewolf: in terminal you can do 'which scangearmp' to locate the bniary - it will be somewhere in the system path (echo $PATH) [10:24] dw1: Yeah thats getting complicated again :D, I will have to look into [10:25] Bluewolf: its in the system path, so you can run it from anywhere, and dont need to know where it is anyway :) [10:26] anyone? [10:26] anyone what ? [10:26] how do I install flareget from the software centre in ubuntu 14.04? it's only saying I can "buy" it ???? [10:26] authenticate with a user that has permission [10:26] ? [10:27] i can install other stuff fine [10:27] saeedullah: you will find samba experts in #samba [10:27] dw1: So I could make my own shortcut of sorts with a gedit file? but I would need the path [10:27] Bluewolf: in terminal do which scangearmp [10:28] ohai [10:29] dw1: Got it :D [10:29] how to permission to folder in ubuntu give me esay way for this issue [10:29] help me all friend [10:30] saeedullah: what do you want to be able to do ? === dean|away is now known as dean [10:31] mv -r /*folder* /dev/null [10:31] latiar: ?

[10:33] Bluewolf: you're welcome. going to watch tv for a bit. g/l :) [10:33] djbeirut: how are you measuring the package loss [10:34] ikoniai am pinging my server [10:34] Packets: Sent = 339, Received = 116, Lost = 223 (65% loss), [10:34] djbeirut: so that could be many things - why do you feel it's a problem with the VPS [10:34] dw1: Yeah I have done that before, Once again thanks. Going to eat - Enjoy your viewing. [10:35] It is NOT a problem with the vps. i think it is something with the ubuntu configuration or an attack. [10:35] djbeirut: how do you know this ? [10:35] djbeirut: what is your process or diagnosing this [10:37] ikonia i don't know for a fact. like i said i am really linux noob. what do i need to do to narrow the problem down [10:37] djbeirut: so why do you think it's not a problem with the vps ? [10:37] or why do you think it's an attack ? [10:37] i said maybe.. it's just a wild guess. [10:38] 11:35 < djbeirut> It is NOT a problem with the vps. [10:38] that is you stating with caps it is NOT a problem with the vps [10:38] ikonia because that's what they told me [10:38] you appear to be changing what you are saying [10:38] it's pretty hard to work with someone who is changing what they are saying [10:39] they said it is not a problem with the connection to the vps. attack is a wild guess from my side. another wild guess is configuration in the ubuntu. is it clear now? [10:40] djbeirut: test other hosts, see if it's just that one host, or others [10:40] then narrow it down [10:40] be systematic [10:40] i am pinging the server not from the server [10:40] djbeirut: I know, from a client [10:40] so see if your client drops packets to other hosts, or just that one server [10:41] i am pinging the server from two different locations. home and work. same result [10:41] so that suggests two different routes are dropping packets [10:41] yes [10:41] so the one common thing is the server / route into that server [10:41] so that would be the starting point to work back from [10:44] ikonia another thing is that when i reboot the server the ping to the server is stable and nice for a little while and then it starts dropping. that makes me assume that there is a service or something that is causing this. maybe maxing the bandwith or something [10:44] I'd talk to whoever manages the VPS/network [10:46] is there a command that stops all the services? [10:46] what network is the server hosted on? [10:46] eoreality [10:46] Trust me you dont want to stop all services :) [10:47] ok.. where do i start troubleshooting then [10:47] Do some tracert routes - see which hop you pkacet drop on [10:47] djbeirut: talk to the people who manage the VPS/VPS network [10:47] djbeirut: that is the common factor here [10:48] And or go for a better host if they cant fix it [10:50] what if it wasn't a vps. what if it was my own server at home. how would i start troubleshooting? [10:50] I got a problem with landscape with the motd in ubuntu [10:50] djbeirut: it is a VPS [10:50] djbeirut: so talk to them [10:50] already did... they are just too slow to answer! [10:50] Some advice please http://paste.ubuntu.com/7451807/ [10:50] i don't want to wait :P [10:50] djbeirut: ok, then wait for them to answer [10:50] djbeirut: then escalate it [10:56] I want to set DISPLAY=:99 for ALL users/ apps and consoles.

[12:01] it says RLT8111/8168/8411 [12:01] I need to identify precisely which one of those and which version [12:01] can I do that, and if so how? [12:01] lspci -vvvx ? [12:01] p.s. booting from livecd if that makes any difference [12:03] lspci -vvvx -d []:[] [12:07] ok, that's really weird [12:07] using lspci -nn [12:07] it gets me the vendor/device as [10ec:8168] [12:07] fear nothing when using the command [12:08] but the specs on the manufacturer's website say the NIC is 8111E, not 8168, and various other sources are telling me it's 8111G [12:09] so now I'm really confused. [12:09] anyway, what were you about to say salsero? [12:10] nothing, I already said what I had t say [12:10] fear nothing when using the command, use it to the full [12:11] if you mean the exact command as you wrote it, I thought I needed the vendor and device ID hex for it to work? [12:12] yo [12:13] did anybody ever fix the chntpw package ??? [12:13] seems broken in all distros [12:13] anyway if I type [12:13] lspci -vvvx -d 10ec:8168 [12:13] hey guyz.. [12:14] part of the info it gives me is that it's using kernel driver r8169 [12:14] which is another chipset again [12:14] so this exercise to narrow down exactly what it is that my board's running hasn't been very successful :P [12:18] fearnothing;~ what does sudo lshw reveal [12:19] grr [12:19] hi, i want to install ubuntu on win 8.

I'm working on a automativ installation witht the 14.04 DVD image. It worked fine with the atomic recipe, but when I use a custom expert recipe, I have to Click "Install now" to proceed. Is there a way to automate this? [12:34] Ubuntu/kubuntu.... etc are all same. i mean, is it different to ask question in other channel or same staff/user there. [12:34] their*? [12:34] six86 i think custom/expert was designed not to be automatic [12:35] am i visible!! [12:35] kdz: they're in the official debian docs?! [12:35] shan: Generally you can ask questions on any of the UBuntu releases here, although sometimes you may get more specific help in the kubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu channels for those releases [12:36] six86 what is? [12:36] I need a command for checking the internet or connection speed on the terminal.. [12:37] kdz: ? [12:37] DJones | So, any suggestions regarding my question!! [12:39] shan: I'm not sure, I've only done one install alongside Win 8, I used Ubuntu 14.04 for a fresh install after disabling secureboot (I think), and it worked without any issues for me [12:39] hey [12:40] smbdy should assisst me with the above command.. [12:40] DJones | ok. so latest release is working fine. does dual boot work fine. [12:41] dammit [12:42] he quits just as I get the lshw info [12:42] Ubuntu 14.04 << does 32/64 bits matter? [12:42] shan: Dual boot works fine for me, the only issue I've had once was in a Win 8 to Win 8.1 update overwrote grub, but that was solved running a grub install command [12:42] for anyone who fancies helping me with this chipset problem [12:42] fearnothing [12:42] lshw gives me the same info as lspci - [12:42] theres no easy way to check inet [12:42] fellicity: Basic information... 'nm-tool | more' in a terminal [12:42] "product - RLT8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller" [12:43] kdz - so what's the hard way? [12:43] or any hard way if there's more than one [12:43] fearnothing installing gui, download chrome and running speedtest [12:44] Djones | any suggestions about 32bits or 64bits download....! : ) [12:44] shan: I've not had any issues with 64 bit [12:45] Thanks minimec...it worked just fine... [12:45] shan: I haven't tried 32 bit on this hardware [12:45] Djones | i'm not sure of 64 bits, coz i tried to install an application of 64bits and i think they never worked. [12:45] fellicity: no problem [12:45] wait what? how's that going to help me? [12:46] minimec: btw I was wondering if there is a way of reducing the number of hops....to reach a given server... [12:46] shan: I've been using 64 bit for about 2 years, I've not had anything fail to work so far, but I'm only using things from the official repo's [12:47] 32 bit should work fine on this machine type. [12:47] right! [12:48] kdz - how does chrome and speedtest help me determine my NIC chipset? [12:48] if it's not found by lspci or lshw [12:48] [14:37] I need a command for checking the internet or connection speed on the terminal.. [12:48] oh lol [12:48] oh lol [12:48] tab error [12:49] so... you got any tips for me? [12:49] DJones | thanks for the info. i'll try 32bits for now. will post here with results. [12:49] but don't call me felicity :P [12:49] brb [12:49] shan: This might be worth a read http://askubuntu.com/questions/392719/32-bit-uefi-boot-support I don't know if it still applies, but seems to suggest that 32 bit doesn't work with uefi installs [12:49] #kdz you can use nm-tool | more or nm-tool | less [12:50] fellicity: I guess that is in the hand of your provider. [12:50] shan: Or at least isn't a simple install [12:50] hi...how can I check free space on my hard disk [12:50] df -h [12:50] #me-1 you can use df -h [12:51] Djones | yes, but i'm not an expert on this case. i have disabled secure boot, fastboot/startup and uefi from Bios. what else i need to make it confirm about UEFI type.... [12:52] thank you [12:52] shan: I'm as much in the dark as you, probably best seeing if anybody else in the channel knows, as I said, I think I struck lucky getting it working first time & I'm still not 100 certain whether it was fastboot or secure boot I disabled === andrex|off is now known as andrex [12:53] hello... I am using a realtek rts5227 sd card reader and it won't recognize my sd card. If I get the same sd card in an usb card reader, it works flawlessly. I've seen some launchpad issues regarding the rts5227 kernel module in previous releases, but could find nothing about the problem I am going through. Any hints? [12:53] fastboot and secure boot is to make usb/dvd work for boot, that's all i figured. [12:55] Actually, it recognizes the sd card, but won't mount it. dmesg says mmcblk0: unknown partition table [12:55] Djones | i think win 8 is 64bit. but i can't boot into win 8 when options are set to "Secure boot" and "UEFI" from BIOS. i can currently Boot into Window 8 with CSM option in bios. [12:56] Djones | i have repartitioned the drive last days and win 8 which came with laptop is removed, so i have installed fresh win 8 and it's not installed with uefi option set. [12:56] kdz - any more ideas on how to determine exactly which chipset is in my box? [12:57] shan: All I can say is good luck, seems like your more experienced with it than me === newbie is now known as Guest41065 [12:58] DJones | atleast you are running Ubuntu. so it doesn't make me more experienced anyway. Thanks for your support. : ). [12:58] shan: No probs, good luck [12:58] fearnothing [12:59] uh goto bios, get motherboard manufacture and google :P [13:00] So preseeding still stuck at ubiquity partition page... Have to click "Install now" to proceed... Any ideas? [13:00] hi, anybody using unity tweak? I cant start that thing now. :( [13:03] kdz | isn't CPU-Z/G works in ubuntu? [13:04] riverloop: try to launch 'unity-tweak-tool' in a terminal. Maybe you get an error indicating why the software fails to start.

(I intend to add the other drive later) [13:10] and the information in there conflicts with both the other pieces of information I have so far [13:10] which also helpfully conflict with each other. [13:10] ok, here's the rundown [13:11] Hi. My backup tool did a wrong synchronisation attempt and deleted my whole Picture folder (!!!). The files are on a SSD disk and were instantly removed. I have now booted from livecd and mounted the disk as RO. I already tried extundeleted, but this does only find about 1% of all files. [13:11] Shuttle's website says the Z87R6 has a Realtek 8111E NIC [13:11] PhotoRec does find more, but also only a minor subset (5%). Is there something else I can try ? [13:11] which should work with vmware esxi 5.5 [13:12] Does Ubuntu allow you to create a RAID 1 array during installation with only one drive? [13:12] however, the LAN won't work with esxi, and when I search for answers, vmware geeks tell me that model is actually using 8111G [13:13] but when I do lspci, it tells me the NIC vendor/hardware ID is 10ec:8168, and it's using the 8169 kernel driver === tedg is now known as ted [13:14] so now I'm really confused - the symptoms of the problem match the description of 8111G, the manufacturer is telling me it's 8111E, and the hardware is telling me it's 8168. [13:14] what [13:14] the [13:14] fffffffff. [13:15] http://garotasgeeks.omelete.uol.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/gg_ffffffffuuuuuu.jpg [13:20] hi guys. A question about apt-get: I have put deb package (firefox_27.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_i386.deb) into the /var/cache/apt/archives , but 'apt-cache madison firefox' does not return that I can install version 27. I also tried to call 'apt-get update', no result. I know I can just install deb package with dpkg, but I'm wondering how to make apt-get to know about the package? Is there some special command to rescan cache? Can't find in man apt [13:21] Can someone help me with this error when I open terminal getpt failed: No such file or directory [13:21] dfrank_: You want come back to firefox without "new design"? [13:23] dfrank_: You'd have to add it to an apt repository that you checked. [13:23] ted20: I want =), but I already did it with special plugin for firefox29. Well it is not perfect, but it's better to have latest firefox because of security reasons. My question is not directly related to firefox, it is just for example. How to make apt-get to know about the package I manually put in the cache? [13:24] dfrank_: Yeah, Look at midori [13:24] drean: http://midori-browser.org/ [13:25] drean: i'm sorry [13:25] dfrank_: adblock, noscript, ghostery are included ;) [13:26] ted20: wow, adblock, ghostery and so on - sounds interesting. Why is it better than just firefox, then? [13:26] adblock + = love [13:27] ted20: I mean, I already use adblock+, ghostery and so on, in firefox [13:28] Can someone help me with this error when I open terminal getpt failed: No such file or directory [13:28] Pricey: you mean, if ubuntu developers remove some particular version from its server, but this version IS in my cache, I anyway can't install it with apt-get, right? dpkg only? [13:29] dfrank_: Because it's faster than firefox, creaded by open source community, check yourself ;), Ah, add this repo before download http://midori-browser.org/download/ubuntu/ [13:29] dfrank_: apt always tries to install the latest. Actually you might be able to do "apt-get install package=version" but i might also be just getting mixed up with yum.. [13:30] Pricey: you can, but only if version is in the repos. [13:30] iirc. [13:30] dfrank_: I doubt that'll work if you've just cp'd it to your cache and it isn't in the repos though.. [13:30] Pricey: I hoped there is some special command to rescan the cache, or something like that. Then yeah, I would write 'apt-get install package=version' [13:30] dfrank_: I don't recommend use old firefiox version, it maybe has a errors [13:31] ted20: Agree. But, I'm tired of browsers changing the design [13:32] ted20: Actually several years ago I was a huge Opera fan, but after several redesigns with no way to return "as it was before", I switched to firefox [13:32] :( [13:32] :( [13:32] Can someone help me with this error when I open terminal getpt failed: No such file or directory [13:32] dfrank_: Might as well dpkg -i it and then apt "pin" it if you're that worried. [13:33] dfrank_: Yeah, it's uncomfortable... [13:33] Pricey: tried, doesn't work [13:33] dfrank_: Error? [13:34] Pricey: nope, it just still unaware of this version [13:34] dfrank_: (Oh and of course... when you're exploited because you were intentionally running an old package it's your fault) [13:34] dfrank_: dpkg -i /path/to/.deb ? [13:34] dfrank_: If you want firefox, so, maybe firefox-esr? [13:34] Pricey: oh, I mean, yes, it IS installed with dpkg, but apt-get is still unaware of this version [13:35] how do I shutdown x, not just lightdm on xubuntu [13:35] dfrank_: apt listens to the repositories. [13:35] Pricey: got it, thanks. [13:35] !pin [13:35] pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [13:35] dfrank_: ^ [13:35] Guest47470: if you stop lightmdm it will stop the x [13:35] omgawd can someone help'??? [13:35] Can someone help me with this error when I open terminal getpt failed: No such file or directory [13:36] k1l: amd proprietary driver installation says x is still running when I enter service lightdm stop [13:36] Pricey: yeah I know about it, but what I want is to easily return to the previous version of the package, if I don't like new version for any reason. [13:36] dfrank_: Ah, midori looks like firefox http://linuxcritic.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/midori_screenshot_cannot_connect.jpg [13:36] Guest47470: are you on tty1? why dont you use the fglrx packages from ubuntu? [13:36] Pricey: it's usually too late to 'pin' it, when it is already upgraded, and there is even no old archive in the cache [13:37] dfrank_: apt just wraps dpkg, use dpkg to install the old version. Pin it if you don't want to update it. === qstrahl` is now known as qstrahl [13:37] dfrank_: This is one of the reasons we have the cache. [13:37] hi [13:37] Codmadnesspro: did you change something in fstab file? [13:37] so I have an install USB made with unetbootin [13:37] I just installed xfce gui [13:37] k1l: the fglrx is the package I have installed but it won't use it. I tried ati-config --initial to set it up but get the error about x [13:37] thats all i've done [13:37] Pricey: I'm not sure why, but after I upgrade system, old packages are removed from the cache. [13:38] Is there a way to add, for example, upload to dropbox/imgur/etc to the screenshot tool? [13:38] And when I boot from it, it goes straight into the [13:38] is it possible to direct application sound to a certain speaker like right/left, or internal speaker and headphone? [13:38] grub's shell mode [13:39] ted20: yeah thanks, I already checked screenshots of course, I'll try it soon! [13:39] Codmadnesspro: itś got to be something in your fstab file which is messed up :) [13:39] any idea what is wrong? [13:39] ice9, are you using pulseaudio?

[13:44] Can someone tell me why there is no files in fstab.d [13:44] Pricey, ted20, thanks for help guys [13:46] Can someone tell me why there is no files in fstab.d [13:47] Codmadnesspro: Why do you expect files to be in /etc/fstab.d/ ? [13:48] hello [13:49] ice9: try looking into pulseaudio volume control, there's some neato options in that, it might be able to do what you're asking === joevegas is now known as ulty [13:49] Back [13:49] I have an error when I open terminal [13:50] Codmadnesspro: feel free to post the error-message ;) [13:50] Let me open irc on vps [13:50] I am experiencing difficulty on my desktop with 12.04.

[14:11] Onliner: If the result of command: uname -m says "x86_64" then you're using 64bit [14:13] So how do i fix getpt failed: No such file or directory. [14:14] genii: output is "i686" [14:14] Codmadnesspro_: it means /dev/pts/ is missing for whatever reason. Possibly udev isn't running [14:15] hOW DO I RUN IT? [14:15] genii: am trying to install a package that only comes in 64 bit, that s how i noticed my install is not running 64bit, apt complains about wrong architecture [14:15] Woops caps [14:16] Codmadnesspro_: sudo service udev start [14:16] Hi. I was here some hours ago because a script did an accidential rm -rf on my images folder. I'm on a SSD with ext4. I already run extundelete, which only found about 1% of the files. [14:16] Is there anything else I can do ? [14:16] How do i run udev btw its xfce os [14:16] Onliner: First check if your cpu is 64 bit: What does result of command: sudo lshw -C cpu| grep width ..say? [14:16] I also run photorec which found a bit more, but still less than 5% [14:16] How can i run that as command if i cant open terminal [14:16] 7/last onliner [14:17] Codmadnesspro_: Alt+F1 [14:17] err, Ctrl+Alt+F1 [14:17] its an amd six core, its 64bit, output you request is 64bits [14:18] Nothing comes up and i cant open terminal because of that error [14:18] genii: confirmed, its 64bit cpu, [14:18] Onliner: generic is the normal kernel [14:19] weirdest crap ever .... my lock screen would not take my password, thought i was going crazy, and it wasn't caps lock [14:19] had to reboot, and then password magically works [14:19] dw1: the one i have is the wrong architecture [14:19] Onliner: so you didnt install 64bit desktop....... [14:20] Onliner: I'd probably try: sudo dpkg --ad-architecture amd64 ...and then do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ( to install the 64 bit versions of all the stuff you already have) [14:20] genii: sounds like a plan [14:20] Onliner: Then after that, try to install the current 64 bit kernel [14:20] I just can't fix the error Failed to execute child. getpt failed: No such file or directory.

[14:25] Oneliner: boot then run uname -m [14:25] Omg nothing works >.< [14:25] ahh right [14:25] clever [14:25] helichopter: you could try to remount in read/write.. sudo mount -o remount,rw / [14:25] helichopter: ddrescue [14:26] Codmadnesspro_: you broke it. [14:26] broke what -. [14:26] do you have a second drive ready? [14:26] dw1: mmazing: i'm sorry, i'm unfamiliar with this stuff, would i just shut down my current system, boot into a live cd and then be able to retrieve the files on the hard drive? [14:26] Codmadnesspro_: reboot doesnt help? :) [14:26] robjloranger: in the worst case, would I lose my files? [14:26] Its only the terminal that wont open [14:26] helichopter: not necessarily [14:26] you could lose data if you mounted the drive RW [14:26] helichopter: youd have to mount the ubuntu partition [14:27] do you have a drive at the ready? (i.e. one of the same size that you can copy to) [14:27] Also i have to contact my vps company to reboot it ._. [14:27] helichopter: like mount /dev/sda5 /mnt or something [14:27] Codmadnesspro_: oh a vps, so you don't have access to its console? [14:27] helichopter: you need to mount it RW using a live cd then you can backup anything, so long as the drive lives that long [14:27] helichopter: then you files will be at say /mnt/home/user [14:27] helichopter: if it's even dying that is [14:28] dw1 here s a one up: poping the live cd into the tray,.. normal iso burn give the cd a word length name :D [14:28] Hey eveyrone, I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04. Installatio went fine, and internet works fine. When I rune apt-get update, it says W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. Help lease? [14:28] Oneliner: there ya go [14:28] Ugh im never going to fix this ._. [14:28] I'm having major trouble with upgrading ubuntu 12.04 lts to 14.04. Can someone assist? [14:29] what's the trouble ramos? [14:29] Oneliner: Apologies on lag, work required me. ... if it doesn't automatically install the 64 bit kernel ( which with only apt-get upgrade and not apt-get dist-upgrade, it should not install new kernels) then you can issue a line like sudo apt-get install linux-image-$(uname -r):amd64 (or specify a specific kernal version) [14:29] * genii wanders back to work [14:29] imho, better fro fresh install Ramo [14:29] Codmadnesspro_: ask your provider nicely to google the error and fix it :) [14:29] !ltsupgrade [14:29] LTS to LTS upgrades are not offered automatically until the .1 release has been issued. Ubuntu 14.04.1 is due for release on 24th July, and you will only see an option to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 after that date. [14:30] My server isnt managed :( [14:30] My server isnt managed :( [14:30] robjloranger, when I run the sudo apt-get upgrade from command line. I get errors with zoneminder? [14:30] okay, so i'm currently studying for finals and don't really want to focus on this too much. I don't have a spare drive, the largest usb i have is 256 mb, i have a shoddy laptop with about 300 mb in free space, and no cds to put a live boot on. how can I best preserve my important files? [14:30] Codmadnesspro_: is there a serial console you can access [14:31] robjloranger, I've also tried to upgrade via update manager with no success either [14:31] Codmadnesspro_: so you can boot it without the normal OS [14:31] I can use putty [14:31] ramos: as k1l and skang pointed out, a fresh install would be best as lts to lts isn't supported until 14.04.1 [14:31] Codmadnesspro_: so you can get a terminal then [14:31] But I can't on the gui [14:32] ramos: which is july 24th [14:32] or so [14:32] Codmadnesspro: well then you can probably fix it [14:32] Hi. Any good mind mapping creation tool that anyone has used in 13.10 64-bit? [14:32] ramos: robjloranger no need for reinstall. you can use the developer upgrade channel with -d [14:32] Codmadnesspro: So do it from putty [14:32] Codmadnesspro: googling the error there are people who have solved that issue [14:32] ramos: please pastebin the exact error [14:33] ooh, sorry ramos. k1l could you fill him in [14:33] I have already but not even the folder name is correct [14:33] Codmadnesspro: what folder name? [14:34] k1l, ok I'll run the apt-get upgrade and paste the errors of the output [14:34] Fstab.d [14:34] ramos: apt-get upgrade doesnt get you to 14.04 [14:35] k1l, ok I'll run the update manager and show the output from that then [14:35] ramos, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will upgrade distributions [14:35] robjloranger, ok will do [14:35] Codmadnesspro: try sudo mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts [14:36] robjloranger: but it will still not get you to 14.04. ubuntu uses the update-manager to get to a new release [14:36] can anyone help me get hibernate back in the menu in 14.04? i am having issues with the policykit [14:36] OK I've done it now what? [14:37] Codmadnesspro: now terminal works? :p [14:37] Ywy [14:37] Yay [14:37] Codmadnesspro: that thing is mounted by initscripts [14:37] now how did that get unmounted in the first place ... [14:37] Codmadnesspro: so reinstall initscripts [14:37] Do I have to run that every reboot? [14:37] Codmadnesspro: not when its really fixed [14:37] Oh ok === bobby_ is now known as Sh0rtWave [14:38] Thanks :D [14:38] k1l, oh ya.. jeeze, i need to have more coffee before helping. do-release-upgrade .. :) [14:38] Codmadnesspro: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall initscripts [14:38] Ok [14:38] Codmadnesspro: then reboot with shutdown -r now to test it :p [14:39] k1l: i'm also trying to narrow down a kernel bug.. tesiting lots of kernels [14:39] Hi all !

[15:02] KGM70: adobe has dropped flash before 12 [15:02] robjloranger_, says no new release round [15:03] ramos: you would need the -d as well [15:03] ikonia, it's standard in google chrome bur he said he had chromium so it's a hack of some kind, probably the google chrome one via pepper [15:03] ramos: did any of the three conditions apply to you in the error you got? are you running a pre release version of ubuntu? or have any unofficial packages installed? [15:03] justaquickmacq: I'd like him to explain so it's clear please. [15:04] ramos: i think [15:04] justaquickmacq, yes pepperflash-plugin [15:04] dw1, ok just did it [15:04] justaquickmacq, not a hack , it's in the repos [15:04] it's not a solution [15:04] KGM70: which repo is it in ? a PPA ? [15:05] !info pepperflash-plugin [15:05] Package pepperflash-plugin does not exist in trusty [15:05] KGM70, that is a hack, just someone else's hack :-) [15:05] nope justaquickmacq , in multiverse [15:05] !info pepperflashplugin-nonfree [15:05] pepperflashplugin-nonfree (source: pepperflashplugin-nonfree): Pepper Flash Player - browser plugin.

[15:09] neccs_admin: I suggest you pay a consultant local to you to set it up, then you can manage it easy [15:09] ikonia, font bug? [15:09] justaquickmacq: there is a bug where the fonts don't render properly due to the retina resolution [15:10] thanks ikonia and oerHeks, so you both sugest using an edubuntu server? [15:10] neccs_admin: the server doesn't matter, the tool being used to manage the clients does [15:11] ikonia: thank you [15:11] mozzarella: did you have any luck? had you previously restarted your session after copying the fonts into your directory? [15:11] ok, thank you ikonia. I'll search for some tools and see what I can do. [15:12] neccs_admin, how many workstations?

[15:22] i got told how yeaterday but i forgot, what is the location i need to add a conf file to make changes i made with rmmod and modprobe permanent?

[15:26] mmazing: pianobar trumps all other pandora delivery methods [15:26] hello! we use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS among other OSses at our NGO. our employees should be able to log into wifi networks without being sudoers. I found a polkit rule that enabled all NM actions for members of a specific group but this then allowed our users to display the network secret for the network at our main office. as I see it, the problem lies within NetworkManager or nm-applet in trying to set up new wifi networks for all users instead of just [15:27] mmazing: i think it's mozilla-plugin-gnash [15:27] surs, try xubuntu or more lightweight Lubuntu [15:27] mmazing: or pepperflash [15:28] be back again, yet another kernel to test :) [15:28] k...I will try it... [15:31] ln -s /foo/bar foobar; rm -rf foobar/; <-- Does this really remove all the files in /foo/bar and not just the symlink? [15:33] pianobar you say. i've been using pithos occasionally [15:34] mmazing: yeah, pithos uses pianobar, afaik [15:34] foofoobar: yes, in fact that seems to preserve the symlink and symlinked folder on my machine, removing only the internal files [15:35] foofoobar: but rm foobar seemed to take out the symlink only. [15:35] SchrodingersScat, yeah I do not know why I used that -rf here.. I just deleted 60GB of images.. [15:36] Question --> What's the difference between "reload", "reread", and "update" in supervisorctl? [15:36] I'm trying to recover them since a few hours now. They were on a ssd (ext4), looks like I cant recover them. [15:36] cannot install Ubuntu on win 8. [15:36] I think I have 80% of them backed up to an external disk. [15:36] so this is a bit off-topic, but i really don't like the interface for things like pithos, it would be so much nicer as a "panel" icon like the volume control or the messaging center in unity, anyone have any info on developing stuff like that? [15:37] does unity in 14.04 still use dbus? [15:37] I did not know that rm -rf symlink/ acts like a hard-link [15:37] shan, using a vm? [15:37] foofoobar: oh wow [15:37] no, i'm currently in live session. [15:38] foofoobar: if yuou use recusion then probably, why are youusing force too? [15:38] KGM70 | i somehow booted linux from USB but on step where to choose partition. it won't show partitions but a single partition as free space. [15:38] shan, no. you can however install ubuntu on your computer [15:38] foofoobar: you can test by making dummy data then test [15:38] thanks you justaquickmacq [15:39] robjloranger | it's not detecting any OS on machine. [15:39] robjloranger, check this out http://paste.ubuntu.com/7452895/ [15:39] shan: what is the device name that is does show? sd* or hd* [15:39] shan, recommend you prepartition your drive with gparted live media, before installing ubuntu [15:40] ActionParsnip, yeah, anyway it's too late now.. The data is lost [15:40] I managed to do a dd of my whole partition. But the sdd seems to be really fast, I dont know how 60GB can be deleted in less than a second. [15:40] foofoobar: this is why I asked why force and recusion was used..... [15:40] ramos: hmm, and you don't have any unofficial packages installed? [15:40] Hi all - wondering if you can help - how might I add this PPA to using the command line? It doesn't follow the usual format does it? http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu/ [15:40] ActionParsnip, yeah it was a mistake [15:41] foofoobar: I always question it, its a really bad habit users get from i dont know here [15:41] robjloranger, don't think so [15:41] foofoobar: people love learning the hardest ways possible [15:41] im currently in ubuntu 5.04.i386...how to update it?? [15:41] foofoobar: I have done that before. The final slash makes a different when you're using -r. Without the / it removes the symlink. With it, it removes the contents of the directory. Next time don't use -r when you want to remove a symlink. Very important. [15:41] ActionParsnip, yes.. I got used to use -rf nearly always [15:41] foofoobar: Always take backups. :) [15:41] foofoobar: not wise [15:41] So it was a "lets delete this symlink", and a second later it was gone [15:42] robjloranger | sda [15:42] rypervenche, the sad thing is: I was configuring my backup folder for sync with a remote store [15:42] ramos: i'm not sure. you might want to try a bug report. unless anyone else here has any ideas [15:42] While doing this I wanted to remove the symlink and removed all files [15:42] :o [15:42] robjloranger | SDA as a free space. [15:43] shan, not sure why it isn't showing up. are you intending on keeping windows? [15:43] yes, i'm trying to keep that. [15:43] robjloranger | it's maybe UEFI thing issue. [15:44] foofoobar: the symlink is a file, so deleting it as a file will work, if th symlink is to a folder it will recursively delete if you use '-r' [15:44] Yeah, I think I understood what I have done wrong :/ [15:44] foofoobar: time to break out the backups [15:45] ActionParsnip, yes. But I will try getting the missing 20% I have not backup'd [15:45] foofoobar: d'oh [15:45] Any other ideas isntead of extundeleted I can use? [15:45] i have now downloaded ubuntu latest version, so maybe will not face this parition issue again. but here i'm again. same free space issue. [15:46] foofoobar: foremost, will take ages and will 'recover' the existing files too [15:46] Some years ago when I was still using a HDD I could recover files easy. With this SSD now I have the sad feeling that this is not going to work? [15:46] ActionParsnip, ages = hours?days? its a 194GB backup I did with dd [15:47] foofoobar: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk maybe. apt-get install testdisk [15:47] sorry shan, if i missed anything after asking if you are keeping windows. my connection froze up. i'm testing for a network bug in the kernel :( [15:47] dw1, tried the photorec from testdics, but it also just found about 1% of the files [15:48] yes, i'm trying to keep win 8 too. [15:48] robjloranger | i have now downloaded ubuntu latest version, so maybe will not face this parition issue again. but here i'm again. same free space issue. [15:48] robjloranger | it's maybe UEFI thing issue. [15:48] Thought ssd made file recovery like that harder.. [15:48] foofoobar: any data area which has had new files made on, that once had the data on then the data is gone [15:49] shan, ok. i would download and burn a gparted cd. use that to resize windows and leave some empty space for linux. the ubuntu cd can format the empty partition you create. [15:49] ActionParsnip, after removing I emidiatly shut down and booted via livecd, then did the DD === Guest4046 is now known as sc_ [15:49] but still bad results with extundeleted. I will try foremost now! [15:50] robjloranger | i have unallocated space around 5 Gb and also 25 Gb ext3. [15:50] what can i do with Linux ??? [15:50] shan: so you already have windows and free space? [15:50] swdev: what can't you do?! [15:51] yes, i do. [15:51] hey guys, I received a rather troubling message from my 12.04 server today saying that I had basically no free space left on the main drive. Basically nothing gets stored on the main drive. Using disk utility I don't see where the storage is being eaten up at. [15:51] shan: and when you run the ubuntu installer it only shows one free space? [15:51] sudormrf: I would say 'Install ncdu' but you don't have any free space :/ [15:51] swdev: Almost anything, it's just a matter of how much time and/or effort you want to put into it [15:51] shan: no windows or others [15:52] SchrodingersScat, I was able to remove some things and free up a few GB of space [15:52] i have no idea...plzz help me do something useful?? [15:52] no, only free space. [15:52] nothing else. [15:52] sudormrf, double check with df -h and df -i [15:52] SchrodingersScat, just not sure why this happend all of a sudden. installing ncdu now. [15:52] swdev: what can you do in Windows? [15:52] swdev: "something useful" is pretty vague :) [15:52] shan: that is very strange. what did you use to resize/create partitions? [15:53] Hi folks. Can someone help me with setting Java_home? I have googled and googled and cant get it to work? [15:53] sudormrf: ok, yep, that might give you a clue [15:53] bobin: what is the output of: file `which java` [15:53] robjloranger | a friend of mine installed win8. so basically it's done from within the win 8 setup. [15:53] anyone know of a good vpn for ubuntu that doesn;t keep logs? [15:53] justaquickmacq, df -h says the disk is 90% used. df -i shows something different I think? [15:54] ActionParsnip: /usr/bin/java [15:54] Armag3dd0n1: why not disable logging in the solution you have now.... [15:54] justaquickmacq SchrodingersScat df -h gives me this: /dev/sda1 103G 87G 11G 90% / [15:54] oh no...i dont know how to make linux useful??im a beginner... [15:54] what you mean? [15:54] bobin: ok, what is the output of: file /usr/bin/java [15:54] justaquickmacq SchrodingersScat df -i gives me this /dev/sda1 6823936 785776 6038160 12% / [15:54] I can't run heroku. After the wget here https://toolbelt.heroku.com/debian if I type heroku login, I get command not found. Any help? [15:54] bobin: this is trhe actual output of the command I gave, which you didn't run [15:54] sudormrf: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/find-large-files-linux/ [15:55] shan: ok. well then i would still create a gparted cd, boot that and see if you can recreate your partition setup. being careful not to touch the windows partition of course. maybe the partition map is messed up, it was microsoft after all :) [15:55] Armag3dd0n1 freenode on login claims to be sponsored by privateinternetaccess vpn company [15:55] whereis heroku shows /usr/bin/heroku [15:55] sl33k_: I suggest you contact the package maintainer [15:55] dw1, hmm. good find, let me see if that will help [15:55] ActionParsnip: Sry, did not know that:( /usr/bin/java: symbolic link to `/etc/alternatives/java' [15:56] sudormrf: id check /var/log first [15:56] robjloranger | what exactly you are suggesting? : ) [15:56] dw1, for largeness? [15:56] sudormrf: yeah [15:56] yeah, £20 for a year. [15:56] sl33k_, and I assume 'which heroky' returns /usr/bin/heroku ? [15:56] bobin: ok and the output of: file /etc/alternatives/java [15:56] sudormrf: maybe some arent being rotated... [15:56] dw1, that was the first place I was thinking this may have been an issue. I have an idea of what that may be, too. [15:56] robjloranger | you want me to merge/change the size of windows partition.?? [15:56] Greetings humans [15:56] ActionParsnip: /etc/alternatives/java: symbolic link to `/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java' [15:57] shas: using a gparted live cd; i would remove all the extra partitioning other than windows, then in that free space create an ext* partition and maybe a swap too. [15:57] sudormrf: -i is inodes [15:57] shan: no. just fix the other partitions. [15:57] SchrodingersScat, I don't know what that means, unfortunately :S [15:57] ActionParsnip: I think he was referring to the VPN provider doing tne logging [15:57] ldiamond: Does not return anything === felipealmeida_AW is now known as felipealmeida [15:57] SchrodingersScat, I just looked it up [15:57] shan: how much ram do you have? [15:57] other partitions ! [15:58] 2 G.b [15:58] bobin: getting there, what is the output of: cd /usr/lib/jvm; ls [15:58] sl33k_, echo $PATH | grep /usr/bin [15:58] bobin: you may need a pastebin for that one [15:58] sl33k_, seems to me that /usr/bin isn't in your PATH for some reason. [15:58] sl33k_, maybe you override PATH somewhere. [15:58] sl33k_: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [15:59] shan: yes, the etx3 that is there. when you boot gparted you will see - windows, ext3, unallocated space. so delete the ext3 and create another in the empty space, and also maybe about 1 gb for swap space. [15:59] ActionParsnip: Im getting this: java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64 java-7-openjdk-amd64 [15:59] java-6-openjdk-amd64 java-7-oracle. [15:59] ActionParsnip: Patebin? [15:59] bobin: nar thats good enough :) [15:59] ldiamond: that gave /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games [15:59] shan: the reason is that i suspect the partition map is screwy, so using something reputable like gparted to remake it should fix the issue [15:59] robjloranger | i already have created swap. [16:00] ActionParsnip: Sometimes I get lucky:) [16:00] ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS \n \l is the o/p [16:00] hello. at startup the screen shows the same error hundred times but I can't find it in the kern.log . where might it be and how to find it? [16:00] sl33k_: is this a desktop OS? [16:00] robjloranger | is it possible to install gparted in live USb right now. [16:00] bobin: try: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin/java [16:01] shan: i know, but with a windows partitioning tool. so i am recomending trying again with gparted. just removing and recreating the linux partitions. leaving the windows one alone [16:01] sl33k_: with mouse pointer and Firefox web browser? [16:01] shan: you can try to run gparted [16:01] it will be easy for me, incase someone help me with that. i'm not much of linux guy. : ) [16:01] shan: type in the search [16:01] so I have two folders A and B. B is a subset of A. The filenames are not the same and the structure inside is also not the same. Some files in them are the same. I want to get a list of files which are in A but not in B. How can I do this ? [16:02] ActionParsnip: yes [16:02] foofoobar: you want to do a comparison of the file contents or just filenames? [16:02] ActionParsnip: only that? [16:02] Hi, when installing a new machine with 14.04LTS, its network interfaces are now called p255p1 and p255p2 - why the odd number, and how to correct it? [16:02] sl33k_: then its no longer supported [16:02] sl33k_: Lucid is no longer supported on the desktop [16:02] foofoobar: find . -type f -exec basename {} \; will give you a list of filenames only. play around with that [16:03] foofoobar: sort them and then diff them e.g. ;) [16:03] ActionParsnip: Is the upgrade smooth to 14.04? [16:03] sl33k_: you will need to upgrade to 12,04 first [16:03] foofoobar: http://www.unixcl.com/2008/03/compare-two-directories-using-diff-bash.html [16:03] SchrodingersScat, this is really bizarre to me. I am thinking it is what dw1 had suggested about a log not being properly rotated, but still investigating. [16:04] ActionParsnip, but diff does not work if the structure of the folders to compare are not the same [16:04] sl33k_: I'd just do a clean install on 14.04 you will get to the goal quicker and you wont have the fluff from the old install [16:04] sudormrf: did 'ncdu /' give you any clues? if it's your logs, then you would expect /var/ to be near the top of the list. [16:05] foofoobar: didn't the diff on filenames work? [16:05] i cant watch videos in linux also games... [16:05] ActionParsnip: Will my data be safe? How would I backup? [16:05] SchrodingersScat, well....I am using greyhole which is making it hard to sort out. /var is at the top, but this because that is also the mount point for the greyhole drives. [16:05] hi everyone - is there a way to disable PERMANENTLY systemd-udev from renaming network interfaces? [16:05] sl33k_: the same way you backup now.... [16:05] sl33k_: you do have a backup, right? [16:05] sudormrf: ah, I see [16:06] ActionParsnip: No Java in specified path in JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin/java [16:06] Set the variable to a valid Java installation [16:06] Is what i get after only that when i try to run a java file [16:06] it's horribly BROKEN, every time the machine boots some interfaces are renamed as "renameX" (with X being a number), and you can imagine what happens if that interface is part of a bond (it's a freshly installed firewall with 10 NICs) [16:07] SchrodingersScat, so I am drilling down in to each item looking at the actual space used. It says /var/ is 4.2TB. The main drive is a 120gb SSD, the current size of all the files in the pool is 4.2TB so that is accurate. so I am subtracting that and seeing what is going on. [16:07] bobin: then you can run: unset JAVA_HOME and undo the set :) [16:07] I tried adding "net.ifnames=0" to /etc/default/grub and running update-grub - no effect [16:07] ActionParsnip: I'm clueless about it. What do you recommend? Does the backup mean only my hardrive or also file system config. Pardon my ignorance. [16:07] again: I got multiple errors at startup that are shown before lightdm is there and the splash screen is shown. hundred times the same error. where might I find that error message in the log? [16:07] foofoobar: just worked here, the diff command showed the files which were unique [16:07] sl33k_: copy the files you want to keep, this is what a backup is [16:07] I also _deleted_ /lib/udev/rules.d/71-biosnames.rules (the only rule which supposedly renames interfaces) and IT STILL RENAMES [16:08] ActionParsnip: Okay, Can I do something else? [16:08] I have photos etc in my pendrive with a ubuntu iso mage...can i still make my pendrive succesfully bootable and install new os?? [16:08] ActionParsnip: Would you trust your harddrive? [16:08] right now ubuntu 14.04 LTS is not able to survive a reboot - and that's extremely wrong [16:09] SchrodingersScat, I think I found the problem! :D [16:09] bobin: its that kind of folder you need to set. Maybe the guys in #java can help [16:09] sl33k_: no and having more than one copy of your important data is wise [16:09] ActionParsnip: Is there any way I don't have to install my software again and again after backup? [16:09] giannello: Maybe give each a persistent name in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules according to MAC [16:10] sl33k_: too many times do I see people bleating about their 'important' data when they dont have a backup. Their system doesnt boot or gets corrupted then they want their data. Its mind bogglingf [16:10] ActionParsnip: thanks for the tip, i can allways ask:) [16:10] sl33k_: the software will all need updating and installing from the Trusty repos [16:10] thanks, I will try this! [16:10] sl33k_: you can make a package list to reinstall [16:11] giannello, you can turn off that Consistent Network Device Naming stuff. Im not a fan [16:11] genii, maybe there should be an option to disable that _random_ behaviour - because YES, it's random, and IMO this is a regression [16:11] SchrodingersScat, so I have a cron job setup to rsync one of my directories over to my other NAS. It looks like the NAS isn't mounted (not sure why...:S) and the rsync happened. This generated 76GB of data on my local drive [16:11] compdoc, _how_ ? [16:11] sudormrf: oh, nice, good thing you found that. [16:12] there's at least 5 different ways to do that, according to the internet - and most of them don't work [16:12] SchrodingersScat, now to figure out why it isn't mounted. lel === kirk is now known as Guest14393 [16:12] giannello: sudo nano /etc/default/grub add: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="biosdevname=0" then: sudo update-grub then reboot [16:13] SchrodingersScat, annnddd I see why. [16:13] Hi everyone! I installed a clean 14.04, did all the updates and I'm trying to use Empahty. When I get a message, I see the blue icon on the corner, but when I pen the chat dialog, the message is not shown and I can't see what the message was. Does this happen to everyone? [16:13] Consistent Network Device Naming is an abomination [16:14] compdoc: My p255p1 and I agree with that. [16:14] compdoc, I'm not that drastic, it could be a nice feature [16:14] but in my case is not Consistent at all [16:14] most of the interfaces are correctly named pXpX (2 PCI cards with 4 ports) [16:15] some of them, randomly, are simply "renameX" [16:15] foofoobar: was I right, or was I correct? [16:15] and it changes at every reboot [16:16] I'm trying to kill mysql server but it keeps restarting. Is there something I need to stop to stop the mysql server from restarting? [16:16] squidly: how are you stopping it? [16:17] Peanut: /etc/init.d/mysql stop is not working. I've tried to kill -9 $pid_of_mysql. [16:17] squidly: mysql uses upstart [16:17] squidly: which OS release are you on? [16:17] I also have looked at stopping the mysql_safe process. [16:17] squidly: try: sudo service mysql stop [16:18] I joined #empathy but no one is there, why do we use empathy? [16:18] str: i don't [16:18] Peanut: I'm on 12.04.4 LTS [16:19] str: I prefer 'finch' [16:19] I was trying out mariadb.. but decided to go back to mysql-server [16:19] pidgin here [16:19] squidly: where did you get your mysql from, the packages or built it yourself? [16:19] str, what would you use empathy for anyway? [16:20] Peanut packages from the mariadb site [16:20] ActionParsnip: Are there steps for making package list for re-install? [16:20] squidly: you're confusing me know. Is it mysql that fails to stop, or mariadb? What do you have currently installed? [16:21] mariadb. they set it to be a dropin replacement of mysql-5.5 [16:21] squidly: Ok, so it is mariadb that won't stop? [16:21] yes. [16:22] sl33k_: dpkg -l | grep -v ^rc | awk {'print $2'} > ~/Desktop/packagelist.txt [16:22] pricey [16:24] squidly: where did the /etc/init.d/mysqld come from? Is that from Mariadb or Mysql? [16:24] mariadb [16:24] squidly: ok, so exactly what happens when you do "/etc/init.d/mysql stop" ? [16:25] it just says failed. [16:25] squidly: ah ok, so it doesn't stop and then start again, which you mentioned before. Is it even running? [16:25] squidly: tried the 'service' command? [16:26] ActionParsnip: yes I did. Before I even came in here. [16:26] Peanut: yse [16:26] squidly: cool [16:26] yes* [16:26] after fresh install, xscreensaver crashes on my secondary monitor. error related to apport-gtk. [16:29] ok that worked.. I hated to do it but a shutdown of the system.. and a boot in to a recovery console lets me remove mariadb. [16:30] it seems as if it would try to show the screensavers of both monitors in one... it looks distorted and after stopping it, the monitor is unusable until reboot [16:31] Ive just upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 however it just loads to a blank screen unless i pish the up arrow key during startup Nd it loads to the terminal. How can i get it to load the normal ui?

How can i get it to load the normal ui? [16:34] benfes: Why would you upgrade to 12.10 and not 14.04? [16:34] compdoc, that did the trick, thanks [16:34] guess the nick was appropriate [16:34] Who?

[16:37] compdoc, the default, old-school naming is _fine_ - I'd never imagined that in 2014 I have to _manually_ name my network interfaces because of some brain-damaged software trying to automagically rename them [16:38] giannello, my system nicely named them eth0, eth1, eth2, etc, and then renamed them all to something unuseable [16:39] upgradeing to 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS is not yet supported? [16:44] squidly: not until 14.04.1 is released. [16:44] is it normal for a raid10 resync check or whatever to take so long ?

[17:17] !quit === rafael is now known as Guest25794 [17:20] how can i specify an interface that will be used on a specific bash window for the commands i enter, for example bash window x goes throught eth0 and bash window y goes through wlan0 [17:20] sysroot000: is that a thing? [17:21] SchrodingersScat: what thing ? [17:21] I like where this is going :) [17:22] sysroot000: I think that's my point. [17:22] sysroot000: i don't think you can. they're relying on the kernel routing table [17:22] sysroot000: you could chroot a fake install and reconfigure that though [17:23] daftykins: what about 3g modems ? its the same about them ? [17:23] sysroot000: it doesn't stop being networking. [17:23] sysroot000: what are you *actually* trying to achieve? [17:24] daftykins: 2 python scripts that each of them goes throught distinct adapters [17:24] Why won't this run? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7453365/ [17:24] sysroot000: why? :) [17:24] Terminal is saying its an invalid op [17:25] sysroot000: you could install virtualbox and get a VM running that bridges over one interface only, but overkill to get there but it'll work [17:25] daftykins: thats what im trying to avoid [17:25] nick0r0: because you're not meant to have all those backslashes, heh [17:25] sysroot000: sorry then :) i think you're out of luck [17:26] sysroot000 you so weird man. good luck. [17:26] daftykins: If I remove backslashes and just leave a space will it work? [17:26] nestle21: why am i weird ? [17:26] joking [17:26] daftykins: are you 100% sure about that ? [17:27] daftykins: isnt that what vpn tunnels does ? [17:27] nick0r0: probably. if those are all package names they should be space delimited yeah. if you copied them from somewhere, \ is just a way of saying it's an ongoing single command but it has to be wrapped to new lines [17:27] sysroot000: well you'd need another endpoint to achieve that, so your setup starts getting ridiculous to achieve this one crazy idea :) [17:28] daftykins: like, when i connect a VPN, i can connect websites inside the vpn subnet .. and surf the internet [17:29] sysroot000: yes i understand how VPNs work, they probably contain some configuration to tell what interface to go out over - but that tends to be system wide again, not per-application === shan is now known as cancer [17:31] maybe u can bind a socks server to both eth0 and the other interface and then use tsocks to run your (applications?) through it ? im probably not helping [17:32] Hi [17:33] sysroot000: individual programs can select interfaces when it's an option, not sure if python has something similar or not, like curl --interface eth0 should pick eth0 [17:33] hello [17:33] I have a problem related to display drivers [17:33] Do you guys recommend WebMin or is there something better to use? :) [17:33] nano [17:34] sudormrf, You seem to not understand this channels role. [17:34] I've recently tried to install nvidia drivers, (from the nvidia site, then by bumblebee because the nvidia ones didn't work) and now I don't have any 3D acceleration anymore [17:35] And the desktop also uses a simplified mode witout annimations (which I think is the failsafe mode) [17:35] ben_g_: sounds like an nvidia optimus laptop [17:35] !webmin | sudormrf [17:35] sudormrf: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. [17:36] sudormrf: let it never be spoken of again [17:36] daftykins: It's possible. [17:36] daftykins, haha ok. So what should I use instead? :) [17:36] ben_g_: possible that it is? intel i-series processor with on-die graphics coupled with an nvidia mobile chip? [17:36] Beldar, I fully understand the role of this channel. I am asking because I am running ubuntu server. === avis is now known as Guest98622 [17:37] sudormrf: you should learn to do things the proper way first, if you start using software that holds your hand you will only make life difficult for yourself when things go wrong and you don't know how to manage it [17:37] Beldar, looking for suggestions from the community :) [17:37] daftykins, I do them from the CLI typically [17:37] sudormrf: i think his point is that #ubuntu-server exists [17:37] I have an on-board intel HD graphics 4000 GPU and a dedicated nvidia geforce 710M graphics card [17:37] daftykins, ah. didn't know that :). will jump into the server channel :D [17:37] ben_g_: yep, ok which ubuntu are you running? [17:37] 12.04 LTS [17:37] sudormrf, I would argue you don't; this is not a what's best or suggestions from the community. [17:38] ben_g_: if you want good optimus support, i highly recommend running 14.04 [17:38] Beldar, I am not going to argue the point with you. [17:38] =i'd already be happy if I can just use my dedicated card [17:38] !best | sudormrf argue with the bot [17:38] !best | sudormrf [17:39] but, is 14.04 a long time stable? [17:39] ben_g_: optimus doesn't work like that, in 99% of cases. you can check your system's BIOS for GPU options, *if* they exist, that let you pick which GPU to use primarily [17:39] ben_g_: 14.04 is Long Term Support yes [17:39] !lts [17:39] LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [17:40] ben_g_: if you want to get back to a working configuration as-is, "sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* " [17:40] And very recent then? When I installed ubuntu (a month or two ago) 12.04 was the most recent I found [17:40] Ok, I'll try that [17:41] daftykins: I space delimited then tried a comma and it's still not working http://paste.ubuntu.com/7453452/ [17:41] nick0r0: the command is "sudo apt-get remove --purge " [17:42] But since my bios doesn't have a GPU setting, I'll be stuck with my on-board card unless I update to 14.04? [17:42] nick0r0: also you now have new lines in your command instead of spaces which is why they're going on new lines ¬_¬ [17:42] ben_g_: what i said is 14.04 is the best choice to begin setting up an optimus system, so if you clean install 14.04 and come back then we can carry on :) [17:43] I'll try that after my exam period then [17:43] ben_g_: lol, doesn't sound like a good time to be messing with your computer [17:44] I still have 3 weeks before they start [17:44] I just don't want to mess up realy badly now [17:44] anyway, brb. I'm going to reboot to see if it's fixed [17:45] Hey all, any idea why minidlna would not want to read an nfs-mounted directory (minidlna account is in group of user who has it mounted) ? [17:46] maybe its' logs tell you? [17:46] daftykins: Was just typing that bit up ;) [17:46] sysroot000: This looks interesting: http://daniel-lange.com/archives/53-Binding-applications-to-a-specific-IP.html [17:47] The logs don't say anything helpful - minidlna just plain refuses to scan if the 'root' folder is the nfs mount. If the mount is mounted as the only thing in a directory which is set to root, it will 'scan' and say 0 files found. [17:48] when setting ranges for a dhcp server, can it be any amount of ips? [17:48] It didn't work :( [17:48] (Even with the log level set to most verbose [debug] I don't get much useful info) [17:48] daftykins: I tried that but nothing happened http://paste.ubuntu.com/7453487/ [17:48] The desktop still is on that simplified mode, and I still don't have 3D acceleration === matteo is now known as Guest6954 [17:48] Can you please paste an example [17:49] michaelaguiar: On most class C type capable servers/routers anything from 2 to 254 [17:49] nick0r0: lol, you have a $ at the start, remove that [17:49] genii: ah ok. What if I need more then that? [17:49] ben_g_: removing the nvidia packages? well i could've done with more feedback after running that command ran [17:49] -ran [17:50] ben_g: two choices: continue messing around with making your existing install work on the intel only, or you go clean install 14.04 [17:50] Are all my files safe if I install 14.04? [17:50] ben_g: Ddid you back them up? [17:51] Most of them [17:51] But I especially don't want to hurt my windows partition, since I don't have the windows CD [17:52] daftykins: The $ wasn't me it's just the token that comes after my computer name [17:52] ben_g: depends what your partition layout is [17:52] michaelaguiar: If the netmask on the server allows more than 255 addresses, then it should automatically assign more than 255 numbers if a starting IP is given it just increments it until second-lat number [17:52] *second-last [17:52] nick0r0: no look at your paste, there are two [17:52] nick0r0: username@pc:~$ $sudo [17:52] got it, thanks! [17:52] the default windows format on the windows partition, and ext4 on ubuntu's partitions [17:53] ben_g: right but do you have a separate /home or is it all in one / ? [17:53] I've got a cron job that has output and tries to mail it to a user on my system. How do I check that mail? [17:53] daftykins: Weird -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/7453520/ [17:53] /home and / refer to two seperate hard drive partitions [17:54] nick0r0: is a package manager running? or the update manager? you can't have two things managing packages at once. [17:54] but they are on the same physical hard drive === cancer is now known as shan [17:54] ben_g: cool, so you could format / and clean install 14.04 then just tell the installer you want to mount the /home as your /home [17:54] daftykins: Yeah I totally have update manager running in background [17:54] ok [17:54] I forget where I am, how do I check which radeon driver I'm using? I have fglrx fglrx-amdcccle and xserver-xorg-video-radeon installed. here is my fglrxinfo http://sprunge.us/JjGG [17:54] nick0r0: :P close it [17:55] fglrxinfo [17:55] I'll try to find a flash drive then [17:55] mistawright: open source is supposed to say callium? [17:55] or something [17:55] stemid: apt-cache showpkg fglrx [17:55] gallium3d [17:56] sounds like you are unsure of the driver you are using currently [17:56] yes [17:56] http://sprunge.us/JjGG [17:56] good afternoon i have applied a patch to my apache server from the ubuntu repo is their a way to roll back patches in ubuntu using apt-get [17:57] bsdbandit: as in the apache2 package had an update? [17:57] daftykins: They are there! I know their there! -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/7453544/ [17:57] nick0r0: i told you to use spaces not commas [17:58] nick0r0: do you have any idea how painful this is? :) [17:58] nick0r0: also you have 'friends twitter' which probably should be friends-twitter if that's even a package [17:58] daftykins: OK : / [17:59] nick0r0: i don't know if you're new at this, but you really need to READ what you're typing in, don't just try and rush these kinds of tasks - else as you've seen command line will say 'DENIED' [17:59] I can't find a flash drive anyware, so I can't really install 14.04 now [18:00] Hey! [18:01] How do i find out which driver to install for my wireless connection to work? [18:01] But I'm pretty sure my default drivers should still be okay, since I didn't remove them. Is there any way to re-enable them? === nnyk_ is now known as nanyaks [18:02] pkp: first identify what hardware it is - if it's internal, try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "lspci | pastebinit" and paste us the link. if it's USB, do "lsusb | pastebinit" [18:03] pkp: or are you already being offered some in the additional / hardware drivers tab of software ? :) [18:04] pkp: you'll have to be online for these commands, so hopefully you have a wired network interface that'll work temporarily [18:04] daftykins, that's the problem. Both wired and wireless are not working. [18:04] ah-har [18:05] pkp: can you take a picture instead and upload it online? :) [18:05] hello all [18:06] daftykins, I think I figured out the company of the chipsets. For wireless, its realtek and for wired its intel [18:06] But am not getting the exact model and other details [18:06] pkp: from lspci ? [18:07] daftykins, yes. and from lshw [18:07] pkp: they should be a fair bit more specific than that, which ubuntu version did you install also? [18:07] I am trying to setup DHCP for my Ubuntu server I have one question how do I fine what my subnet config. I herd of the subnet mask. [18:07] hi everyone, i would like to know what is wrong in my code and i guess i don't know how the parent::__contruct() work. http://pastebin.com/09ppWqd9 [18:08] hope something help me. tnx [18:08] daftykins, er.. am using elementary. But its based on ubuntu and use 3.2.0 kernel, I think [18:08] ah, sorry - we don't support that here [18:08] !elementary [18:08] Elementary OS is an Ubuntu derivative which is supported in their IRC channel #elementary on irc.freenode.net - http://elementaryos.org/ for more information on this distribution. [18:08] hey guise, can anyone suggest a channel for stupid newb Ubuntu questions [18:09] JMon: that's here! ask away with as much detail on one line please [18:09] daftykins, okay. thanks anyway [18:09] JMon: No such thing as a stupid question, just ask here & see ifanybody can help [18:09] pkp: a newer version with a newer kernel would likely help a lot [18:09] daftykins, Yeah probably. I was just trying with the one I had. Will install the newer one. [18:10] :) [18:10] *download [18:10] busy as ever here [18:11] I am trying to setup DHCP for my Ubuntu server I have one question how do I fine what my subnet config. I herd of the subnet mask. [18:11] I'm trying to port my app from another linux distro to Ubuntu, does anyone have any resources on building packages by hand? [18:12] tomorrow I should receive my 2 SSDs 40Go, was thinking of making a bios RAID-0 to get max performance to install my "/" partition, and use my actual 500Go as /home and swap, is it a good decision ? Some people told me to use a soft RAID solution, some LVM...I'm becoming a bit lost lol [18:12] mr-tech-guy: for a standard home network with 254 hosts max, stick with 192.168.0.x as the IP scheme and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask [18:13] Mikerhinos: i'd say no, but even if you setup that RAID in BIOS Linux will likely see the two disks separately [18:13] but Iam on a 10.0.0.0 network comcast [18:13] mr-tech-guy: is that your internal IP or your internet facing IP? [18:14] internel facing IP [18:14] lol facing [18:14] I have a 7 year old computer with old intel audio, which doesn't apper in the settings [18:14] is there any package I can install that provides me with the drivers? [18:14] mr-tech-guy: so copy the IP schema and subnet from your existing settings, read them from ifconfig -a [18:14] daftykins: it's an Intel Matrix sata controller (MB=Asus Sabertooth 55i), if I setup my RAID in bios why would Linux see the 2 drives ? :s [18:15] Mikerhinos: because it doesn't tend to follow the fakeraid setup. once you get it assembled boot a LiveUSB/DVD and you'll see :) look into mdadm if you really want RAID but i'd advise against it with SSDs [18:15] I am copying folders from my linux box to a NAS (buffalo HD-CELU2) the copy on NAS has the same number of items in the folder, yet shows different amount of space used... original folder size is 3.0 gig, copy says 1.8gig. even weirder still,when I checked from an alternate box (newer dist of ubuntu) It shows copy as 3.3 gig. I want to wipe the drive on computer but am hesitant to do so without being sure the copy is exact [18:16] JMon: is it just files in your /home ? [18:16] I have know problem with my configration the problem is every video I am looking at the subnet and subnet mask is diffent [18:17] mr-tech-guy: but you asked what to put as the subnet mask... [18:17] I just trying to fined out where are they getting it form [18:17] no [18:17] check this out [18:17] daftykins: performance in RAID-0 is really interresting, I don't search reliability as my important data will be on a SATA HDD on a separate /home. Anyway problem with RAID seems to be the no TRIM capability :s don't know if I use LVM to "merge" the drives [18:17] mr-tech-guy: well, it differs depending on the network and how many hosts you want to be able to support [18:18] Mikerhinos: yeah no TRIM would mean their performance would drop very quickly and not return [18:18] Mikerhinos: i know nothing about LVM to know if it'd be useful though [18:18] daftykins: but I know that LVM is like 20% behind soft RAID-0 in performances [18:18] Hello [18:19] daftykins: no its a folder within /home [18:19] JMon: yeah that's what i meant, was any program likely using any files in there at the time? [18:19] i hear you subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 [18:20] what is the subnet and where did they get that from === kbrosnan_ is now known as kbrosnan [18:21] mr-tech-guy: i'm afraid this isn't the place for a networking 101, i'd advise you look it up online. [18:22] Thanks [18:23] daftykins: oh, looks like TRIM is supported in a RAID configuration with ubuntu 14.04, problem is, I'm on Mint Petra, so equivalent to 13.10 I believe :s I like Mate desktop it's very light and efficient...Gnome Shell is ok, but Unity... :( [18:23] yeah we don't support mint here. [18:24] !mint [18:24] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [18:25] daftykins: no [18:25] yeah I know, but it's very similar to 13.10 I believe. Is Ubuntu Gnome supported here ? I had it a few days and it was quite cool, switched to Mint only because my sons have old hardware and I wanted to have same OS for easy help when they are in trouble [18:25] where would I go to inform a packager that they're doing it wrong? [18:26] Mikerhinos: similar but not supported here :) [18:26] infowolfe: you could just file a bug on launchpad [18:27] Mikerhinos: try #linux too, it seems like a pretty general question you have, not really mint-specific [18:27] mmazing: trying right now thx :) [18:28] I am not able to turn Bluetooth back on in 14.04. It immediately turns off again. It was on after install and worked. Then I disabled it once and now it won't turn on again. Ideas? [18:29] people, sdl2 package seems badly broken. the same app, compiling with debian jessie sdl2 works fine, compiled with ubuntu sdl2 I get a segfault [18:29] fgl_glxgears show 1800FPS when it's on monitor off of GPU1 but about 310FPS when i drag it to monitor off of GPU2 [18:29] ceed^: did you use rfkill? [18:29] ceed^: do you have the bluetooth settings window open or clicking on the indicator icon? i had some trouble earlier where it wouldn't turn back on via the settings window, but i just tried the indicator now and it worked fine [18:32] daftykins, I didn't use anything other than the bluetooth on off [18:32] daftykins, I had added my bluetooth speakers and the work fine, the only problem is that I am not able to turn bluetooth on [18:33] ceed^: did you see mmazing's reply? [18:33] daftykins: no,i t is highly unlikely that any other programs are using the files. I just checked again and the NAS still shows copy of folder to be 1.8 gig from one box, 3.3gig when viewed from another box, yet the original folder is 3.0gig [18:34] JMon: is that NAS new? [18:34] daftykins, I saw it yes. I do have the bluetooth settings open and try to turn it on, but it just goes back to off again [18:34] daftykins: [18:34] its about 6 years old [18:34] daftykins: I think it worked [18:34] nick0r0: after that long i really hope so ;) [18:34] daftykins: Can you show me a way to confirm this [18:34] daftykins: its about 6 years old [18:35] :) lol [18:35] nick0r0: dpkg -l | grep would show if a given package is installed or not [18:37] daftykins: Ok may be it really didnt work :( Some of the packages show as still there [18:37] daftykins, rfkill says my device is "soft blocked = yes". [18:38] ceed^: sounds like you want to remove that! [18:38] nick0r0: are you seeing two letters beside the package name? === tcpman is now known as Guest8059 [18:38] daftykins: yes ii [18:39] daftykins, did "rfkill unblock 0" and I can turn it on again! How did it get "soft blocked" in the first place?

[18:50] its irc; doesnt anything go? [18:50] which package contains the GL headers/ [18:50] ? [18:51] What should I do? Can I safely ignore it and continue the installation? [18:51] daftykins: would that make a diff? [18:52] JMon: not sure [18:53] daftykins: ok well thanks for your input, much appreciated [18:53] np [18:54] Do I have to create that boot partition in the installer or should I ignore the error? [18:54] daftykins: What do the two letters mean? [18:55] (I have 1GB of unallocated space on my hard drive, so it is possible to create an other partition) [18:55] nick0r0: have a read up by typing 'man dpkg' in the terminal [18:57] I'll ask it in an other way: can it do harm if I create the boot partition from unallocated hard drive space if the installer asks for it? [18:58] ben_g: do you know if your windows and ubuntu install are currently installed as EFI or legacy? === comp is now known as computerxpds [18:59] UEFI [18:59] I heard that legacy was rather bad and/or unsafe === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [19:00] ben_g: And both isnt true. [19:00] Well, UEFI was the standard on my system, and I'm sure that windows works on it [19:03] Anyway, do I need that partition, or would it be a bad thing to add that partition? [19:03] Is there a simple diagnostic tool for ethernet problems? I am running lubuntu 12.04 on xps 8700 desktop connected to linksys 900E. It detects the connection, but cannot connect to network.

[19:10] Perhaps I can just turn off network-applet and just connect via a script, and look at output of command line [19:11] ben_g: if they're installed as UEFI, you should already have an EFI FAT partition at the start of the drive [19:11] mrkent2: wireless or ethernet? [19:12] so I can safely ignore the error? [19:12] ben_g: possibly, try it and see! [19:12] Ok, thanks [19:14] "the attempt to connect a vfat-filesystem at efi/boot has failed" Does that mean that I do need that boot partition? === cancer is now known as shan [19:21] how can i block dc++ on my network without block the ports [19:24] does ccsm worth with Ubuntu 14.04?... things like wobbly windows and such?

[21:20] Wug: If I run the python interpreter, i get [GCC 4.8.2] on linux2 [21:20] sl33k_: yep , its 32bit [21:21] bekks, ok the problem was that for some reason my security group was setup only for port 32 -.- and i was trying to connect on the default ssh port [21:21] xRanieri: that probably just refers to the version of gcc used to compile that python binary [21:21] Python binary? [21:22] sl33k_: for 64bit it lists x86_64 [21:22] That's getting too technical for me.

[22:21] Bashing-om: I killed the download process. does not make a difference? [22:21] sl33k_: The easy easy way to make ubuntu the sole operating ystem is to install ubuntu and in the installer pick "erase disk and install ubuntu" over and done with. The install wizard will take care of all details. -> standard no frills install ! [22:22] sl33k_: killing the process, I can not see how it can make any difference .

[22:25] sl33k_: Well, depends on where the installion process was when it was terminalted - the 10.04 packages as still available on the repository. Maybe the install process has already done some installing ? ..(???) .. just depends on where it was at .

[23:20] cyborgcygnus: yeah, though i don't really understand why anyone would have a .exe to run a DVD 0o [23:20] i am using gnome [23:20] cyborgcygnus, Wine has very limited use, not sure why people bother to be honest. [23:21] it came with umbuntu. I think I am in over my head with it though. [23:21] daftykins, Well it's a number of large files which doesn't fit on a cd & the exe runs an interactive training dvd. [23:21] I boot two OS's [23:21] Bashing-om: why is /etc/apt/sources.list edited? Is it any use for older releases?

If you use unity, you have a left-side panel with squarish icons [23:38] how to disable a cpu core in unbuntu [23:38] Seven_Six_Two, I do have that. Unity it is then [23:38] ?????

[23:56] Seven_Six_Two, ok. now i type the command you gave me earlier? (btw thank you for your excessive patience) [23:57] Amy_Lu_Who, yes. that will update your package database and do a system upgrade. [23:58] Hey, so I've been wondering if I actually own my install of Ubuntu or does Canonical retain rights or licenses over it of any description? [23:58] Amy_Lu_Who, Kuroshita they own the name. [23:58] Amy_Lu_Who: Hint: Copy/paste works in IRC also. lessens typos !. [23:59] To your knowledge is that it? Just the name? [23:59] Kuroshita, yes. everything else is either open-source or third party. [23:59] Seven_Six_Two, i tried copy paste but it showed up as "V" in the command prompt. :/ oh, i typed it in and stuff is definitely happening. [23:59] Seven_Six_Two, thanks :) [23:59] Kuroshita, unless you subscribe to their partner channel and have purchased something proprietary that I don't know about. [23:59] hi i was used to start my install from a usbstcik but this wont work with 14.04 anymore, the only supported method seems to be unetbootin which is not an option for me
