| RippSteakface | Could someone help me with trouble getting conky to start at boot? Specific to Xubuntu. | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| RippSteakface | 135 people in this channel and it's always dead. Sigh. | 00:43 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: what have you tried? and what was the problem? | 00:45 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpConky | 00:48 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: For Xubuntu, no luck | 00:49 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Created a new start-up application with Add+, named Conky, command "conky" | 00:51 |
| === gonyere_ is now known as gonyere | ||
| === sku1d_ is now known as sku1d | ||
| David-A | RippSteakface: does conky start as you want when you type conky in a terminal? | 00:55 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I type "conky &" to start it, haven't tried just "conky" | 00:56 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: let me try one sec | 00:56 |
| RippSteakface | yeah "conky" starts it too | 00:56 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: its okay either way just to test that the config is allright | 00:57 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: "conky" starts it as well | 00:57 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: is there any message in ~/.xsession-errors thay may relate to conky, right after you logged in? | 01:01 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: (as you can see, I have no idea what the problem might be) | 01:01 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: How would I check that? Noob here :) | 01:02 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: do you prefer looking at text files with "less" in a terminal or with the texteditor, e.g. leafpad or mousepad? | 01:03 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I can do terminal | 01:03 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I just want to fix it, I'm sure it's easy I just don't know why it wouldn't work according to Ubuntu's page | 01:04 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: less ~/.xsession-errors | 01:04 |
| RippSteakface | openConnection: connect: No such file or directory | 01:05 |
| RippSteakface | cannot connect to brltty at :0 | 01:05 |
| RippSteakface | Script for none started at run_im. | 01:05 |
| RippSteakface | Script for auto started at run_im. | 01:05 |
| RippSteakface | Script for default started at run_im. | 01:05 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: scroll forward with space and return, backward with b, go to end with >, exit with q | 01:05 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: That appears to be it. | 01:06 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: is your .xsession-errors only 5 lines? happy you, mine is 296 thousand lines. | 01:08 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Yeah man, it's a new install and that's all it shows me. Scrolling forward doesn't do anything. | 01:09 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: To be fair the .conkyrc is a custom file that I edited a bit, and it's in /home/*name*/.conkyrc | 01:09 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: But it runs normally just opening the terminal and typing "conky" | 01:10 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: it should be used when you start conky in a terminal and we have verified that it works that way | 01:10 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Right | 01:10 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: if conky fails with an error it should be in .xsession-errors. either it fails silently, or xfce hasn't even tried starting it. | 01:12 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Makes sense, I have it in my application autostart list as named "Conky" and command "conky" and the box is checked. | 01:13 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: you said "trouble getting conky to start at boot". just to verify, you want it to start at *login*, right? | 01:14 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Yes login :) | 01:14 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Is it because I need some sort of privelages? | 01:15 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: stupid question, but you have logged out and in after adding it to "Session and Startup"? | 01:15 |
| RippSteakface | let me try | 01:15 |
| RippSteakface | woops tabbed | 01:15 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Should I killall conky first? | 01:16 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: it should stop when you logout, but ctrl-c or kill it if you want | 01:16 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Nothing. It also didn't save the position and size of my IRC window :( | 01:18 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: I am out of ideas. If there is a checkbox by the command in "Session and Startup", it is checked, I suppose. | 01:21 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Yup I really have no idea. Could it be a permissions issue? | 01:21 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I'm the only user but I don't know | 01:22 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: the process use/have the same permission as in the terminal when you try it. it's you in both cases. | 01:23 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: So odd. Thank you so much for trying to help me I'll just do it manually I guess. | 01:23 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: if you rename you .conkyrc to .conkyrc-temporarly-moved, then you should get a default config. see if that works better? | 01:25 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Ok | 01:25 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: .conkyrc has a command in it that says "total_run_times 0" | 01:26 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Would that effect it? | 01:26 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: see "man conky". man normally lets you read the text in "less", so scroll and quit like mentioned before. | 01:29 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: in the man page (and in less) you can search using / to enter a search pattern, and n and N to search for next and previous match. | 01:30 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: ok | 01:31 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: in man conky you can search for /configuration settings | 01:31 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: then scroll forward using space to see all keywords, millions of them | 01:32 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Hah ok | 01:32 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: or search for /total_run_times if you are inpatient | 01:32 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: Trying now | 01:33 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: 0 makes it run forever, that's it | 01:33 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: It's ok man, maybe I'll post on the forums or something - thank you so much for spending your time helping me. | 01:34 |
| RippSteakface | David-A: I have to go for now, thanks! :) | 01:34 |
| David-A | RippSteakface: so here we are scratching eachothers head. it should be fine, but isnt. | 01:35 |
| David-A | ok, forum is good | 01:35 |

| xCiccio986 | hi all | 09:36 |
| xCiccio986 | how to get support here? | 09:37 |
| koegs | xCiccio986: just ask and try to give as many details about your problem as you can :) | 09:39 |
| xCiccio986 | ok | 09:40 |
| xCiccio986 | my browser "Opera" does not work well with facebook | 09:40 |
| xCiccio986 | I think I have a problem with the plugin adobe flash player | 09:41 |
| xCiccio986 | ii flashplugin-installer 11.2.202.356ubuntu0.14.04.1 amd64 Adobe Flash Player plugin installer | 09:42 |
| xCiccio986 | i don't have any problems with firefox | 09:43 |
| xCiccio986 | the pages are very slow. | 09:44 |
| xCiccio986 | there are no solutions? | 09:52 |
| koegs | so you dont have problems with firefox but with opera? | 09:52 |
| xCiccio986 | yes | 09:53 |
| xCiccio986 | the pages are blocked, you load with difficulty... with opera | 09:54 |

| Ergo_Proxy | Wait how do I open a folder as root? | 11:46 |
| slickymasterWork | Ergo_Proxy: To open the folder as root in the grapical file manager, run the following command: sudo -i | 11:48 |
| slickymasterWork | Ergo_Proxy: and after that thunar & | 11:48 |
| Ergo_Proxy | Alright, thanks slickymasterWork | 11:51 |
| slickymasterWork | np | 11:51 |
| koegs | well, it is not recommend to use sudo with graphical apps for a reason: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Graphical_sudo | 11:56 |
| slickymasterWork | koegs: you're absolutely right, but since 14.04 onward gksu and/or gksudo isn't shipped anymore, hence the necessity to use sudo -i | 11:58 |
| slickymasterWork | that way you'll be launching the graphical application from a root prompt, not using sudo with graphical apps | 11:59 |
| koegs | ok, nice info, i just installed gksu :) | 12:01 |

| Akeif | Hey guys, one of my coworker keep saying to use Debian instead of Xubuntu because of : 1. Ubuntu is not fully open sourced. 2. Ubuntu is insecure. | 14:26 |

| goneeuro | can someone help with this error? | 15:26 |
| goneeuro | ./ccg_client: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_net-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 15:26 |
| goneeuro | Im running 64bit. I found this lib in usr/libs so I know its on the system. | 15:27 |
| slickymasterWork | goneeuro: http://askubuntu.com/questions/133602/error-trying-to-run-gccg-while-loading-shared-libraries-libjpeg-so-62-cannot-o | 15:30 |
| slickymasterWork | goneeuro, sorry that's not the right link | 15:31 |
| slickymasterWork | goneeuro: see this one instead -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/143393/shared-libsdl-library-fails-to-open | 15:31 |
| genii | Likely it's a 32bit binary and you have 64bit libraries, so it's looking for them in the wrong place | 15:32 |
| goneeuro | Thats what I am guessing also. I just cant figure out the command to install the correct binarys | 15:33 |
| genii | goneeuro: I'd probably do: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 ...then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ( which should pull in all the 32 bit apps and libraries of whatever you already have installed) | 15:35 |
| eugene_ | hey to everyone, I have couple of problems with xubuntu-desktop on ubuntu-14.04, that prevent me from using it. Maybe somebody know how to resolve this: 1. Keyboard shortcuts take long time to react, especially after login (seconds), 2. Logout doesn't se.em to work all the time, even when shortcuts start responding | 15:37 |
| goneeuro | genii: Tried that and it didnt pull anything down. I have all the libs installed I believe. Its just that gccg is not finding it. | 15:37 |
| eugene_ | I did some search on this topic, and didn't find anything useful, maybe someone would have ideas how to resolve this. Thank you. | 15:37 |
| goneeuro | slickymasterWork: Thanks for the links, but im still stuck. | 15:39 |
| genii | goneeuro: Maybe try: sudo apt-get install libsdl-net1.2 :i386 | 15:40 |
| goneeuro | genii: E: Unable to locate package | 15:41 |
| genii | goneeuro: What version of Xubuntu are you using? | 15:41 |
| genii | !info libsdl-net1.2 | 15:41 |
| goneeuro | 14.04 | 15:41 |
| ubottu | libsdl-net1.2 (source: sdl-net1.2): Network library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.8-4 (trusty), package size 11 kB, installed size 64 kB | 15:41 |
| genii | goneeuro: Do you have universe repository enabled? | 15:42 |
| goneeuro | genii: yes I do. But the wife just called me so I have to go out now. Thanks for the help and I will be back on in a little while. Thanks again. | 15:45 |
| genii | goneeuro: I'll be here for about another 5 hours if you need asistance later :) | 15:45 |
| tropoMobi | Hi! Today 2 of my computers died suddently and they won't install ANY OS no more. Can i be so unlucky or is there something going on right now? | 16:35 |
| tropoMobi | Both had xubuntu 14.04 | 16:35 |
| drc | tropoMobi: You have more than 2 computers? i.e., some of them are still working? | 16:37 |
| genii | Maybe you had a power mains isue that damaged both systems at once | 16:38 |
| drc | that was my next point :) | 16:38 |
| tropoMobi | The other computer is 400 km away | 16:38 |
| tropoMobi | The issue is same | 16:39 |
| drc | tropoMobi: so you have 2 computers 400 km apart and both basically died at the same time? | 16:39 |
| tropoMobi | Both loads Grub and i choose Ubuntu and then nothing else but power off | 16:39 |
| tropoMobi | Not exact time but same day | 16:40 |
| tropoMobi | This is very weird | 16:40 |
| drc | Did you make <any> changes to the machines before thy started acting strange? | 16:41 |
| tropoMobi | I try to install for example win 8.1 or other Linux distro and they just hangs up at the very beginning of the instalation like loading UI | 16:41 |
| tropoMobi | Just normal update & upgrade from lates official xubuntos repos | 16:42 |
| tropoMobi | I really can't believe for bad luck but maybe i should... | 16:43 |
| tropoMobi | I just wanted info this if there comes more broken computers | 16:43 |
| drc | I just re-installed and updated this machine about an hour ago, so (for me) they systems works fine. | 16:44 |
| tropoMobi | I ran hdd test and memtest from both and they were ok | 16:45 |
| drc | I'd concentrate on what happened to the first machne (I'm guessing whatever it was also affected the second). | 16:45 |
| tropoMobi | It's very weird because the hardware is damaged some how now | 16:46 |
| starrats | been reading this back and forth, there's a 'bug' in one of the machines | 16:48 |
| drc | If you are sure the hardware in damaged, then I'd say replace the damaged hardware and start over. If it is truely damaged, no tinkering will fix it. | 16:48 |
| drc | starrats: are you talking about tropoMobi's problem? | 16:49 |
| starrats | especially if the comps are 400 clicks away from each other. | 16:49 |
| starrats | yes | 16:49 |
| drc | and that's klicks...clicks are for mice :) | 16:50 |
| starrats | old Army term click = kilometer | 16:50 |
| drc | I agree...my guess is whatever happened to the first machine he/they/gremlins also did to the second. | 16:50 |
| drc | starrats: I know, I spent 22 years there :) | 16:51 |
| starrats | lol, ok | 16:51 |
| drc | troposphere: Tell us exactly what you/someone did that led to the problem (install, update apps, upgrade...whatever) | 16:51 |
| starrats | drc could the disc he used be corrupted some how, to me that's the gist of it | 16:52 |
| troposphere | ok, both had team viewer because the other cpu is 400 km as i said and my mother uses it | 16:52 |
| troposphere | very basic installation in both | 16:53 |
| troposphere | i rw | 16:53 |
| drc | back in ~2 minutes...dog wants outside. | 16:53 |
| troposphere | updates and cobfiguration was also defaults from default repos | 16:53 |
| troposphere | okies :) | 16:54 |
| troposphere | both computers are about 6 years old so atleast i didn't lose so much money... i also have 2 dedicated servers with Ubuntu server 14.04 but they are different story. | 16:55 |
| troposphere | updated and rebooted normally today those 2 dedicateds. Those 2 computers died on the fly... First one was at Grub menu today when i switched the monitor on and the other died meanwhile using Chromium | 16:59 |
| troposphere | I leave this client here and wish that this will not happend to anybody else. Now i start to watch a movie. :) | 17:06 |
| drc | ok | 17:06 |
| vabi | hello, is there any way to set "long" - two displays wallpaper without editing it and setting different parts on both displays? | 17:19 |
| vpily | pick cancel instead of star upgrade while upgrading xubuntu, how can i upgrade it now? | 18:31 |
| xangua | Hi, how can I restore the notifications position or reset the configuratin? even when I have slected notifications popups to appear in the upper right corner they appear kind of in the middle http://i.imgur.com/UkOE6cN.png | 18:43 |
| drc | xangua: Works fine for me (big help I know)...is there anything special about your display...effects, dual screen, etc? | 18:48 |
| xangua | It was working fine this morning until I started to try themes, set up conky and plank dock | 18:49 |
| drc | xangua: I'd set the display back to the defaults then make one change at a time until you find the problem (unless someone has an answer for you now) | 18:50 |
| drc | That's assuming that setting it back to defaults cures the problem. | 18:51 |
| cavac | I installed xscreensaver and removed light-locker in a new 14.04 install. Clicking "Lock screen" in the Action Buttons applet locks the screen, but suspending the laptop does not. Any guesses on how to fix this? | 18:51 |
| cavac | Power Manager/Extended has the "Lock screen on hibernate/suspend" checked. | 18:53 |
| drc | cavac: Well that answers the question I was typing. | 18:53 |
| xangua | I just played with the notifications position and restored it to the upper right, this was weird | 18:54 |
| cavac | I'm not sure how Xubuntu does suspend. Upstart script? | 18:55 |
| drc | xangua: gremlins :) | 18:55 |
| cavac | Ah, found it! | 19:10 |
| cavac | In addition to checking the lock screen checkbox in Power Manager/Extended you *also* have to go to "Session and Startup/Advanced" and under "Shutdown" check "Lock screen before sleep". | 19:11 |
| cavac | Somehow it doesn't make sense that you have to active the option in two completly different Settings dialogs to do essentially the same thing. | 19:14 |
| cavac | Here's the link to the instructions i followed: http://askubuntu.com/questions/259190/xubuntu-no-password-request-after-suspension | 19:15 |

| dreamer | Kekai: reboot | 19:46 |
| Kekai | its gone now | 19:46 |
| Kekai | anyone know of a mass id3 tag editor where It changes files tags for ubuntu | 19:47 |
| drc | I use Easytag | 19:48 |
| dreamer | easytag++ | 19:48 |
| drc | But a quick check shows at least a dozen during a search for id3 | 19:49 |
| Pici | picard is good too | 19:50 |
| drc | I have also used Ex Flaso in the past, but prefer Easytag | 19:50 |
| drc | kirk was better :) | 19:51 |
| David-A-Kenobi | I think Easytag has better user interface than Exfalso. but I have experienced that Easytag may update files in a dir I visited without the intention to actually change any tags there. | 19:52 |
| David-A-Kenobi | Kekai: I don't remember the details, but maybe it was easytag decided by itself to copy ver1 tags to ver2 tags on files that did not have ver2 tags. | 19:55 |
| Kekai | I used to use one in windows | 20:08 |
| Kekai | I forgot the name of it | 20:08 |
| Kekai | but during the move frm windows to ubuntu my songs got messed up. | 20:08 |
| Kekai | I been meaning to do it sooner since its been a year, but stuff came up | 20:09 |

| waldir | Hi, I'm running 12.04 but the update manager isn't showing me the notice to upgrade to 14.04 ... is there something I need to set manually? | 20:33 |
| drc | IIRC, it will when 14.04.1 is released, not 14.04 itself | 20:34 |
| genii | Yes | 20:34 |
| waldir | oh, really? why? | 20:34 |
| drc | I suspect that they want to ensure any remaining problems are ironed out before updating the LTS/stable release. | 20:37 |
| drc | and there are <always> problems :) | 20:37 |
| waldir | lol even after the LTS :P | 20:38 |
| waldir | but I thought that was the point of the RCs... | 20:38 |
| === David-A-Kenobi is now known as David-A | ||
| waldir | besides, in my other laptop I did get prompted to upgrade (although I think it told me to upgrade to 13.10, but ended up actually upgrading all the way to 14.04.. at least that's what lsb_release says | 20:39 |
| drc | The problem is that the pool of testers (and their hardware) at all stages is small...no way catch <everything>...after a release there are always problems no one even thought of. | 20:39 |

| waldir | drc: I guess in the other laptop I wasn't using an LTS so I did get prompted, but in this PC I'm on 12.04 | 20:43 |
| vladimir_ | numix theme | 20:43 |
| vladimir_ | sorry | 20:43 |
| waldir | drc: I'm saying this because of this quote: "Upgrades between LTS releases are not enabled by default until the first point release" from here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/110477/ | 20:44 |
| waldir | that would explain the discrepancy between the two machines | 20:44 |
| drc | waldir: That's what I was refering to. | 20:44 |
| waldir | got it :) | 20:44 |
| Kekai | easy tag is a tar.XZ | 20:46 |
| Kekai | I got it unzipped, but what do I run | 20:46 |
| junka | is there a script to make xchat notify me with xfce notifications when someone highlight my nickname | 20:46 |
| drc | Kekai: Use either the Software Center or Synaptic...it's in the repos | 20:50 |
| Kekai | ah | 20:50 |
| drc | junka: It's internal to xchat | 20:50 |
| Kekai | I was using the tar | 20:50 |
| drc | junka: Preferences>Chatting>Alerts, IIRC | 20:51 |
| junka | thanks drc ! | 20:53 |
| drc | junka: np | 20:53 |
| * starrats prefers hexchat for notifications and weechat for a lttle notifications, lol | 20:55 | |
| vladimir_ | so could anyone have a clue how to set numix ? | 20:55 |
| vladimir_ | i mean I want even buttons on vlc to be numix | 20:55 |
| vladimir_ | and I can't set it | 20:55 |
| vladimir_ | ? | 20:55 |
| junka | starrats, hexchat does not appear in indicator-messages :( | 20:58 |
| drc | vladimir_: No real idea (seeing as how I'm totally ignorant of numix) but this might be a start http://numixproject.org/#artwork | 20:58 |
| Dry_Lips | vladimir_ have you downloaded and installed the numix icon theme? Or just the gtk? | 20:59 |
| skribblezatcha | pidgin does junka. | 20:59 |
| vladimir_ | no just | 21:00 |
| vladimir_ | the default | 21:00 |
| vladimir_ | numix after I installed 14.04 | 21:00 |
| starrats | I was just on FB and hexchat lit up like a beacon and i came over here to read what you just posted junka | 21:01 |
| drc | vladimir_: There is also this: http://www.noobslab.com/2014/04/install-numix-icon-packs-in-ubuntulinux.html | 21:01 |
| Dry_Lips | vladimir_ you're referring to the actual buttons in the VLC program? | 21:01 |
| Dry_Lips | Because I don't think those buttons are in the icon theme | 21:02 |
| Dry_Lips | They are native to VLC | 21:02 |
| vladimir_ | Dry_Liphttp://i1.wp.com/smdavis.us/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/trusty_numix.png | 21:03 |
| vladimir_ | ? | 21:03 |
| drc | vladimir_: Some apps have their own icons/button/etc that are (calibre and vlc come to mind). No matter what icon set you have they won't change. | 21:03 |
| vladimir_ | see the play button | 21:03 |
| drc | vladimir_: That's parole, not vlc | 21:04 |
| vladimir_ | ohhh... I see.. I'm sorry | 21:05 |
| vladimir_ | :D | 21:05 |
| vladimir_ | i'm newbie | 21:05 |
| vladimir_ | :) | 21:05 |
| Dry_Lips | :) | 21:05 |
| drc | Being a newbie is not a crime...staying one is :) | 21:06 |
| starrats | junka maybe because I have 4 workspaces and hexchat is dedicated to a workspace and it lights up that way. | 21:07 |
| rasmus_ | hi, is there anyone out there whos got a fair bit of knowledge regarding A2DP and xubuntu ? | 21:08 |
| junka | starrats, :) | 21:09 |
| starrats | Facebook beeps at me to lewt me know someone is posting something i'm following | 21:10 |
| starrats | let | 21:10 |
| rasmus_ | wait.. was that a response to me, or is this because i entered the channel midway through a conversation ? | 21:13 |
| Unit193 | rasmus_: He was talking to someone else. | 21:16 |
| starrats | not you rasmus_ | 21:16 |
| rasmus_ | thought so aswell :P | 21:16 |
| Unit193 | Whoever was looking, hexchat does have an indicator plugin, but it's mainly cp xchat-indicator hexchat-indicator | 21:17 |
| Kekai | I need help | 21:30 |
| rasmus_ | go on .. ? | 21:31 |
| Kekai | I was changing my workspace settings and the counter got stuck scrolling through the numbers | 21:31 |
| Kekai | now my work space switcher is freaking out | 21:31 |
| rasmus_ | which panel are you using ? | 21:32 |
| Kekai | 0 | 21:32 |
| rasmus_ | no i mean like xfce or .. ? :P | 21:32 |
| Kekai | XCFE | 21:32 |
| rasmus_ | Could you revert to defaults ? | 21:32 |
| Kekai | no | 21:33 |
| rasmus_ | hmm | 21:33 |
| Kekai | it stpped once I removed the switcher | 21:33 |
| Kekai | I dont need it | 21:33 |
| rasmus_ | ok | 21:33 |

| starrats | loves his workspaces! | 21:40 |
| * adrenaline_ +1 | 21:41 | |
| starrats | 4 workspaces for me | 21:42 |
| starrats | all dedicated to individual opearations | 21:42 |
| starrats | operations | 21:43 |
| adrenaline_ | I have 4 works spaces and on one of my workspaces I have a nx session to my home where I have 4 more workspaces. | 21:44 |

| starrats | cool adrenaline_ | 21:50 |
| starrats | I have had no trouble with the 'switcher', 3 of my workspaces include hexchat/weechat, firefox, thunderbird, the 4th I leave open fo other apps or terminal. | 21:52 |
| starrats | learn this from the old gang i hung out with back in the my early days of linux. | 21:53 |
| adrenaline_ | Ya I have 3 workspaces dedicated for work then my fourth is dedicated for home. Works out pretty good. | 21:54 |
| starrats | If I didn't have 'workspaces' then i probably wouldn't be using Linux that much. | 21:57 |
| eegore | is there an apt command to remove older versions of the kernal? | 22:36 |
| eegore | boot is full and I can no longer update | 22:37 |
| adrenaline_ | I always run a cli command to do that like if this is an old kernel vmlinuz-3.2.0-54-generic I would do a sudo rm -rf *.54-* and it will take out all of the kernels and maps etc that are that have that number in the name | 22:41 |
| adrenaline_ | You may need to do it to a few kernels if you have a lot | 22:41 |
| adrenaline_ | sorry it isn't *.54-* it is *-54-* and it works I just tested it as I actually do have that kernel | 22:43 |
| adrenaline_ | Then do a df -h to see how much space you have now. | 22:44 |
| adrenaline_ | do you have any questions? | 22:45 |
| adrenaline_ | eegore, | 22:45 |
| eegore | I was thinking of trying apt-get autoremove | 22:47 |
| adrenaline_ | try it | 22:48 |
| eegore | Looks like that is working | 22:48 |
| adrenaline_ | I do mine manually is why I scripted it, but if that works too go for it | 22:48 |
| adrenaline_ | Looks like autoremove takes all of them out but two. I wonder if there are options to how many you can keep | 22:49 |
| adrenaline_ | actually it looks like autoremove only removes headers | 22:51 |
| adrenaline_ | maybe not I am testing it now | 22:52 |
| adrenaline_ | It is Erroring out like crazy | 22:52 |
| David-A | eegore: see if Computer Janitor (in the software center) has an option to remove old kernels or set a limit how many to keep. | 22:53 |
| eegore | This is an ultra book UX71A, biggest hard drive I can get for it is 256 GB | 22:54 |
| adrenaline_ | Ya auto remove didn't clean it up as good as I do manually | 22:54 |
| David-A | eegore: I think the sudo rm think 1) requires a preceeding cd /boot and 2) does not save as much space as actually un-installing the kernels. | 22:54 |
| eegore | and it is smaller than some USB stcks | 22:54 |
| eegore | I have to keep the software in it as minimal as possible | 22:55 |
| adrenaline_ | You are right you do have to cd /boot but it does remove all of the kernels you specify plus the maps and configs so It does create lots of disk space | 22:55 |
| eegore | the drive itself is about the physical size of 5 postage stamps end to end | 22:56 |
| adrenaline_ | I have to use it a lot because my boot is 229M and it fills up about every 3 months or so I go ahead and delete about 5 kernels and keep about 3 to be save | 22:56 |
| adrenaline_ | If cd /boot and ls you will see what I am talking about | 22:57 |
| adrenaline_ | if you rm -rf *-55-* it will delete any directory of fill with -55- in the name. | 22:58 |
| eegore | the i7 cpu, memory and mobo take up only a third of the laptop | 22:58 |
| eegore | the rest is all battery | 22:59 |
| eegore | and weighs only pond and three quarters | 22:59 |
| David-A | eegore: forget my comment about Janitor. it seems it is not available for recent ubuntus. | 23:02 |
| eegore | I am running an encrypted drive as well as an encrypted home directory | 23:03 |
| starrats | just got this link on the xuvbuntu page on FaceBook should we as Linux usrs be concerned or just bow down and start using chrfome/chromium? http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/flash-linux-future.html | 23:54 |
