Stovetopdoes anyone happen to know why it's not possible to automount an ecrypt directory on publickey ssh authentication?00:08
Stovetopeven when sshd is using PAM00:08
Stovetopit seems like PAM should kick in to gear and automount the directory via the pam_ecryptfs plugin00:09
TJ-Stovetop: Because, by default, the ~/.ssh/ directory is encrypted. I reconfigure things to move it out to /etc/ssh/$USER/00:14
StovetopTJ-: i've done that - the ssh part is working fine and separated from the encryted dir - i just can't get it to autmount when i login via ssh00:16

VivekanandaHello everyone. My network manager settings dont allow internet when connected to vpn. I tried the method here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1660520&page=3   ( last post )   but that does not help. Can someone guide me through the steps to take to solve this ?  I am not sure what else to change in the network manager for this00:18
mdevW: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric-security/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.200 80]00:18

mdevmy /etc/apt/sources.list contains nothing but oneiric stuff00:19
TJ-Stovetop: You've confirmed that the "/etc/pam.d/sshd" is working as expected. "/var/log/auth.log" should show what is being processed00:20
VivekanandaWhat I meant was that on connecting to a vpn network my local internet access through my router gets disabled00:20
daftykinshisto: one successful xubuntu install :)00:20

FreederHi, I have a few small public services running (webpages, ftp, etc) and would like to gain a better idea of what users are doing on my network when connected (bandwidth used, how many are currently connected, new connections, etc) via something similar to mrtg... what is a good real-time stat generator that might be able to do that?00:21
=== Anom01y is now known as conspirasaurus_
StovetopTJ-: yeah, i've checked all that and it seems to be working properly.  the problem is that a lot of the articles online seem to have contradictory statements on whether auto mount for ssh should even work at all00:21
econdudeawesomeHow do I get my new USB wifi dongle working? I plugged it in and it appears to detect the dongle, but I'm unable to connect to my wifi00:21
TJ-Stovetop: I use it routinely and have for a long time; never had an issue00:22
mdevapparently it was removed from the main repositories?00:22
StovetopTJ-: i found one ubuntu forum article from an ecrypt contributor who said it should NOT be possible00:22
mdevwhat the actual heck...00:22
mdevso ubuntu team just broke my VPS entirely I can't update I can't upgrade00:22
TJ-Stovetop: The only time I've seen it not mount the ecryptfs is when the .ssh directory can't be reached00:23
ee99eeWhat's the best way to set the hostname of an ubuntu box when provisioning on aws with ec2-run-instances? Set it with a user-data script?00:23
mdevso wreckless....00:23
StovetopTJ-: so you have key-based ssh auth that automatically mounts the encrypted homedir when you login - no password promts?00:23
ee99eemaybe someting like: echo "my.new.host" > /etc/hostname; hostname "my.new.host" ?00:23
=== GeekBlogTV_ is now known as James_Away
TJ-Stovetop: correct, I've had that as standard practice for several years00:24

mdevguess ubuntu can't be trusted00:24
mdevtoo busy trying to integrate amazon ads00:25

StovetopTJ-: argh - i wonder what's going wrong - pam doesn't seem to want to mount it automatically - i had to set up a .profile that runs the ecrypt mount command00:25
Viking667what's the  name of the volume application?00:26
Viking667the one that is used for audio volume?00:26

=== mike_ is now known as Guest96064
StovetopTJ-: when you created the encrypted directory, did you choose your own password or let the program set it?00:31
z1hazehello! could someone answer a few questions for me, and possibly help me out? Im a server owner, but I have little experience doing so; I had help setting up the server as it is, and everythin works great, except for the fact theres no actual ftp server installed on it. The server is setup with password authentication disabled and uses ssh keys, but now I am going to be required to install an ftp server on it, due to a control panel f00:32
z1hazeor a gameserver that includes ftp.. what would be the easiest way to do this?00:32
TJ-The passprase for the ecryptfs is wrapped using the user account password00:32
wheatthinz1haze, ubunt-server would be a better place for that question00:33
StovetopTJ-: so do i maybe have a redundant password or something?00:33
wheatthinubuntu-server00:33
=== [Derek] is now known as Guest49412
z1hazei thought so  i went there first, didnt get anything00:33
wheatthinyeah.. You can use vsftpd, and configure it in /etc/vsftpd.conf00:34
StovetopTJ-: i've just created a new user, so should ecrypt just inherit the password for the new account, or do i need to set a new password?00:35
mjaykdoes anyone know why a usb 3 stick would stop working in a usb port when a usb 2 stick works in it ?00:36
mjaykbut the usb 3 stick works in the usb 2 port ubuntu 14.04 64 bit00:36
TJ-Stovetop: It's so long since I messed with it... I think you need to do "adduser --encrypt-home ..."00:37
TJ-mjayk: Stops working entirely, can't be seen by the kernel, or only uses the USB2 protocol?00:38
Vivekanandahope someone can look at the network issue I have . Been trying different things esp the one here  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1660520&page=3   ( last post)00:38
mjaykTJ-: doesnt show at all under lsblk or anywhere as far as I can see00:39
vernacchiais anyone present familiar with schroot?00:40
Vivekanandahope I did not loose internet yet00:40
TJ-mjayk: check in "/var/log/kern.log"... best to do "sudo tail -f /var/log/kern.log" as the device is connected, to see what the kernel reports00:40
histodaftykins: nice00:41
TJ-Vivekananda: what is your issue? the post you refer to reports the issue being solved00:41
mjaykwould dmesg do the same TJ- ?  just for my own learning :)00:41
vernacchiaI'm getting an error when I attempt to enter a schroot environment: W: Shell 'usr/sbin/nologin' not available: usr/sbin/nologin: Failed to stat file: No such file or directory W: Falling back to shell '/bin/sh'00:41
vernacchiait's like it isn't looking for the initial environment in the right place but I'm not sure where it would be defined00:42
VivekanandaTJ-: I tried the suggestion there but does not work for me.  My issue is that I have a working vpn connection but when I connect to the vpn I loose my internet connection.00:42
TJ-mjayk: not unless it is a very recent version, that supports "--follow"00:43
TJ-Vivekananda: what kind of VPN?00:43
VivekanandaTJ-: openvpn ubuntu 12.0400:44
Vivekanandausing the network manager plugin for it00:44
mjaykOK I can see it in dmesg00:45
TJ-Vivekananda: OK, have you only ever configured the VPN using the GUI (in other words, have you previously done a manual configuration by editing files in "/etc/openvpn/") ?00:46
mjaykTJ-:  http://pastie.org/9275403 does that help at all00:47
TJ-mjayk: That looks correc to me... what else are you expecting?00:47
mjaykim expecting to see it in the file manager or under /media/ or somewhere00:48
VivekanandaTJ-: I made no manual changes but I did import the certificates into the connection when creating a new openvpn connection in the network manager. Besides doing that I have made no changes00:48
mjayklike it does when i plug the usb 2 stick in TJ-00:48
TJ-mjayk: Is the usb_storage kernel module loaded ("lsmod | grep usb_storage") ?00:48
mjaykTJ-:  Nothing comes up when I do that00:49
VivekanandaTJ-: but the vpn connection works fine when I try to log into it00:49
TJ-mjayk: really!? OK, keep an eye on that dmeg/kern.log and do "sudo modprobe usb_storage"00:49
daftykinsVivekananda: did you miss my reply earlier?00:51
TJ-Vivekananda: So I'm a bit confused as to how it is failing. If by that you mean the VPN gets the default route, then you need to enable the option "use this connection only for computers on this network" or however it is worded, it's a checkbox in one of te tabs00:51
=== tcpman is now known as Guest52461
mjaykTJ-:  http://pastie.org/927541800:52
Vivekanandadaftykins: hi . no I saw it but did not follow what I needed to change so I tried to look for something similar and apparantely got to that site that told me to just click on 'use this connection for routes on this network only' and I did that. Besides that I am not sure what to change00:52
vernacchiaaha, host environment config is missing the correct path and preserving the broken environment when entering schroot causes it to bomb00:53
StovetopTJ-: me again. :-) once i've created the user with the --encrypt-home option, you reckon i need to run ecryptfs-insert-wrapped-passphrase-into-keyring?00:53
daftykinsVivekananda: so as long as you can use IPs for RDP over the VPN, you'd want to disable getting any DNS servers from the connection too00:55
VivekanandaTJ-: I have checked that box and if I am understanding you correctly based on the limited knowledge I have, I guess vpn is getting the default route and so the net is not working but I have checked that box and net is still unreacheable after vpn connection.  would you like me to post the results of route -n  for before and after the connection ?   or perhpas the results of :  cat  /etc/resolv.conf ?00:55
Vivekanandadaftykins: I dont follow that completely. do you mean if I want to use rdp over vpn I cannot have local internet  ?00:56
TJ-Stovetop: I'm having trouble here with a RAID failure so I can't look right now, but I seem to recall because the same user password is used on the local and remote system, I have something configured with the agent... I'll try to find it once I have some free time and I'll drop you a Memo here on freenode in case you've not solved it00:56
daftykinsVivekananda: what you've said to TJ- would indeed be handy, although i have to go to sleep now.00:57
mjaykim quite confused00:57
StovetopTJ-: cool, thanks dude - i'm gettin nowhere on this at the moment - nothing seems to work - good luck with the RAID fixing!00:58
daftykinsVivekananda: you want to make sure that your default gateway is not overridden, then you want to make sure your DNS IPs remain ones that function, i.e. your ISPs or perhaps googles00:58
Vivekanandaokay willl wait for his answer00:58
Vivekanandadaftykins: okay but again I dont know how to locate those pieces of info and ensure they are remaining the same or if I have to manually write some file00:59
TJ-Vivekananda: In the openvpn configuration GUI, ensure you select (on the IPv4 tab) "Method: Automatic (only addresses)" to avoid the VPN changing the default route or the DNS servers01:00
daftykinsVivekananda: "route -n" or "ip route" for gw, as you stated... then if resolvconf is removed, /etc/resolv.conf can contain hardcoded DNS IPs... depends how you're handling DNS01:00
VivekanandaI have that chosen and not the first one01:00
Vivekanandagw ?01:00
mjaykTJ-: im not nagging I appriciate the help but did you get my last pate bin :)01:00
daftykinsguess.01:00
daftykinsah there you go, TJ- has a better way for dropping DNS from the connection01:01
TJ-mjayk: No, I missed it. That log was captured after you'd modprobed usb_storage?01:02
mjaykTJ-:  Yea i was01:02
mjaykTJ-:  http://pastie.org/927541801:02
TJ-mjayk: which ubuntu release, which kernel version ("cat /etc/issue && uname -r") ?01:06

mjaykTJ-: http://pastie.org/927544101:11
mjaykshould help01:11
TJ-mjayk: no good. I need to see the *entire* dmesg to see how the controller and ports have configured, and if the USB2 and USB3 have initialised in the correct order01:12
VivekanandaTJ-: in the ipv4 settings for the vpn  do I need to specify a route manually in the 'routes'  button pop-up ? I dont have anything there and it is blank01:16
=== Obiwantje_ is now known as Obiwantje
TJ-Vivekananda: Hmmm, possibly. It's difficult because the VPN server can be configured to hand out additional routes, name-servers, and so forth so you never quite know on the client side what you may need to ignore01:17
Vivekanandaok. but on checking the checkbox you indicated above, shouldnt that not take care of this issue ?01:18
VivekanandaPlease let me know what other outpus you would need to help me a little with troubleshoot01:18
TJ-The route is orthogonal to the DNS resolvers, but the way the connection can be configured on the client I'm not sure the GUI allows you to accept routes but not nameservers, for example01:19
VivekanandaTJ-: when you say client do you mean my computer or the vpn server I am connecting through using the vpn connection ?01:20
TJ-Vivekananda: the client is the one that calls the server :)01:22
Vivekanandaalso are you sure I cannot do anything about this ?  so that makes me and my computer the client01:23
TJ-do anything about what? From what you've said you've already set the option to prevent the default route being changed... so that should ensure you still have direct Internet connectivity via your ISP, rather than re-routing all traffic through the VPN01:24
FreederHi, I have a few small public services running (webpages, ftp, etc) and would like to gain a better idea of what users are doing on my network when connected (bandwidth used, how many are currently connected, new connections, etc) via something similar to mrtg... what is a good real-time stat generator that might be able to do that?01:27
VivekanandaTJ-: I have that checkbox checked and things changed as you said above but even now when I connect to the remote  server via vpn connection I am loosing internet.01:27
TJ-Vivekananda: define "losing"... I suspect you mean you lose DNS name resolving only01:27
TJ-Vivekananda: pastebin the results of these commands: "ip route ls && pin -nc 4 8.8.8.8"01:28
TJ-Vivekananda: Typo! "ip route ls && ping -nc 4 8.8.8.8"01:28
VivekanandaTJ-: after I see " vpn connection successful " I then open firefox on my local computer ( not a remote computer accessible through the vpn) and try to go to google.com and cannot01:28
VivekanandaTJ-:  I am assuming you want me to try that after connecting to the vpn01:29
TJ-Vivekananda: Yes please01:29
Vivekanandaokay gimme a min. Just that when I connect I will loose this chat connection too01:29
TJ-Vivekananda: You shouldn't loose this as an established connection, if the default route isn't being changed01:31
SachiruI'd like to track who's browsing por... tals for accounting experts on our network (and yes I know this is not a 100% foolproof system, what I'm asking for is basic logging/monitoring for beancounters, not something to track a person who is dedicated to having himself not tracked.01:31
VivekanandaTJ-: http://pastie.org/927547201:31
Vivekanandathis is after vpn was established.01:32
TJ-Vivekananda: That explains it! You've got duplicate sub-nets for 192.168.1.0/24 on both sides of the VPN!01:33
TJ-Vivekananda: So, when the VPN is established a route for 192.168.1.0/24 is added via the tun0 interface, which interferes with your local route via eth001:34
histoSachiru: there are many ways to do that.  What type of network is it?01:34
TJ-Vivekananda: one side or the other needs to move to a different sub-net01:34
Vivekanandaooo okay01:35
RcrashI have ubuntu box1 connected to windows box1 over ethernet, no switch, both are configured on 192.168.5.x/24. The Windows box can ping the Ubuntu box, but the ubuntu box cannot ping the windows box. When I have the ubuntu box hooked up to the normal network, it receives a DHCP address, but then stops talking to everything afterwards. After the DHCP lease is established, I can view all network01:35
Rcrashtraffic on the box, but still cannot talk. This is on a fresh install of Ubuntu server, but also happens with Ubuntu desktop. When using the same hardware under Windows, everything works properly01:35
RcrashThe same problem appears when I use the onboard ethernet ports or the pcie NIC01:35
VivekanandaTJ-: I dont have control on the other side but can move mine the only thing is I dont want to do it so that if new computers connect to my network they cannot get dhcp ips01:35
Vivekanandathree people use my network and I dont wish to cause them pain01:36
TJ-Vivekananda: You should just be able to reconfigure your local sub-net on the router, move it to say 192.168.101.0/2401:36
RcrashVivekananda change your whole internal network. Unless the other people are using static IPs, they will be fine.01:36
TJ-Vivekananda: If the router is issuing IP addresses via DHCP then nothing will break01:36
Vivekanandahow do I move my own to a different subnet. Also when you say different subnet do you mean just the  numbers from 1 - 24 to be different or do I have to change the 192.x.x.x ie all of them01:36
histoRcrash: are you trying to ping by hostname01:37
SachiruBasically the DNS+DHCP server resides on a different machine from the gateway.01:37
RcrashVivekananda on your router, change the internal lan to 192.168.101.0 as TJ- suggested, that should also update the DHCP server settings.01:37
ubuntuuserhello01:37
Rcrashhisto no01:37
TJ-Vivekananda: When we write 192.168.1.0/24 we mean the first 24 bits of a 32 bit address are static, so the final 8 bits can change. That means the valid sub-net addresses are 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255.01:37
SachiruI don't need full URL logging, just logs of how many times a user hits facebook, etc.01:37
SachiruIt's a small office network, around 20 workstations, simple TP-Link router.01:38
ubuntuuseri have a question, maybe someone can help me: i run an irc client on a shell in another timezone. can i offset the time on the shell? or does that have to be done in the client (irssi)01:38
VivekanandaTJ-: also just trying to understand the output I gave you.  ie each of the lines in there01:38
RcrashSachiru you will need to either setup dns logging to see who's hitting your DNS server, or you will need a router which supports url logging.01:38
SachiruI plan on using a machine here as DHCP+DNS, then turn off DNS on the router. This would have the added benefit of me being able to locally resolve a domain.01:38
histoSachiru: http://www.debianadmin.com/network-traffic-analyzer-for-your-ubuntu-system.html01:38
SachiruDNS logging is what I plan.01:39
SachiruJust asking if there are any good DNS log analyzers out there.01:39
SachiruInstead of me having to manually grep through stuff.01:39
RcrashSachiru http://www.gypthecat.com/how-to-log-bind-queries-on-ubuntu-12-1001:39
histoRcrash: can you pastebin ip route01:39
Rcrashhisto there are no routes01:39
Rcrashthere is no traffic leaving the subnet01:40
Rcrashit is all local traffic01:40
TJ-Rcrash: my first thought was cabling, but if you're seeing a full DHCP conversation (and not just the client using the last lease it obtained), then I'd want to know the kernel version and the exact PCI IDs of the NICs01:40
SachiruBasically something similar to this: http://demo.statdns.nedze.com/01:41
VivekanandaTJ-: the lines having 'eth0'  are : 1.    default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0  proto static      and    2.  68.198.105.173 via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0  proto static   and   3. 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.37  metric 1   .  The lines for  'tun0' ie the remote interface are  :     1.  192.168.1.0/24 via 10.8.0.9 dev tun0  proto static     .   did you mean that line 3  in eth0  interferes with line 1 in the tun0 ?01:41
TJ-Vivekananda: line 7 is the one causing your grief01:42
TJ-Vivekananda: "192.168.1.0/24 via 10.8.0.9 dev tun0  proto static " ... tun0 is the interface created by openvpn01:43
Nautilusfrom the desktop of a LiveCD boot, how do I open a terminal window? Thought it was ctrl-T01:43
TJ-Nautilus: Ctrl+Alt+T01:43
RcrashTJ- I've changed cables, NICs, everything but the mobo. The full conversation happens, is recognized by the DHCP server, and logged. Then after that, active network traffic can be viewed using any one of a few packet sniffers. The kernel version is whatever's installed with the latest ISOs from ubuntu.com. PCI IDs 14e4:163901:44
RcrashSachiru see the link I pasted. You need to find what IP your beancounter is using, then just grep through the log, there's not going to be anything easier unless your router supports traffic logging01:45
lacrymologya friend's got a legacy nvidia and his machine started freezing at grub after release upgrade. He thinks it's video drivers, has checked the rest of the hardware01:45
TJ-Rcrash: So, Ubuntu 14.04. What do you have in "/etc/network/interfaces" ?01:46
RcrashTJ- right now I've got one port for the dual nic configured manually, which is what Windows is able to ping.01:47
RcrashTJ- yeah, 14.0401:48
Bashing-omlacrymology: Maybe, try and boot with the 'nomodset' boot parameter from grub.01:48
TJ-Rcrash: looking at the bnx2 driver, it has an option "disable_msi" ... Sometimes systems have issues with MSI (checking dmesg may reveal something), so you could try loading the driver with that enabled ("disable_msi=1")01:49
Rcrashnothing in dmseg with any value01:49

hanasakiI think the audio is going through the spdif not the hdmi connector that the video is using to get the the monitory (has speakers)   how can I get the audio to go through the hdmi?02:17
ROCK23:-)02:18
Bashing-omlacrymology: Well, no more than we have to work with, info wise, will not hurt to (re-)install grub from the liveDVD and see what happens. Yall game for that ?02:18
muddle_throughall depends on available drivers for your card, i would think02:18
muddle_throughsoundcard, i mean02:18
lacrymologyyeah sure02:18
muddle_throughyou could probably play around with the mixer interface, and see what happens02:19
hanasakihow do you play a sound w/ the mixer interface?02:19

Bashing-omlacrymology: The mens to implement depend on where the operating system is installed to. Do you know the hard drive and partition that 'buntu is installed onto ? else we will do the pastebin thing and I will find the information.02:22
ROCK23why don't you plug it into the normal sound output to verify that the sound card is working fine?02:22

alazyworkaholicI reinstalled ubuntu. I had a separate /home folder, and I am CERTAIN that I did not format the existing /home partition, which was a raid0 array. As soon as I started the new install, I installed mdadm, which assembled the array, but with a single user and only default clean install files. Is there any way mdadm might be mis-assembling the array?05:06

grydon't stop them from liking it then, Quoexl09:07
Quoexlfair enough09:07
funkyHatlgp171188: "which packages" for what? The point is you install the same library packages from the i386 repo as you would if you were installing the same software on a native i386 system.09:11
lgp171188funkyHat, my question is what packages did the 'ia32-libs' metapackage install? If I know that I can install the same using the :i386 qualifier.09:12
funkyHatlgp171188: it installed many many libraries, most of which are not needed by specific individual i386 software. Why do you want to install all of them?09:13

cfhowlettoaulakh the official android SDK09:14
lgp171188funkyHat, Because I am debugging an issue where a software that used to run on 12.04 no longer runs with 13.10 and has a dependency on ia32-libs. At this moment, I am not sure of what exactly are the dependencies, so I want to see installing all those packages to see if it works.09:15

wgetHi guys. Reminder: I'm a developer and ArchLinux user. Yesterday I installed Ubuntu on my neighbour's laptop (he was previously running ArchLinux too). I've 2 questions:09:48
wget1. Since I'm accustomed to use Debian but not Ubuntu. I wanted to know if it was stable enough to make an apt-get dist-upgrade instead of a simple apt-get upgrade on Ubuntu. I assume Ubuntu is slim to don't miss with dependencies? Indeed, after I did that Ubuntu installed me 3.13.0.29, then .24, and reinstalled .29. --> Weird behavior.09:48
wget2. I had a crash once and I've dialog "Please report errors to Canonical". I dismissed it, but it appears again at each reboot. Any idea how to get rid of that?09:48
gryfor 2, click 'details' in that dialog and see what details it gives09:49
gryfor 1, 'man apt-get' describes this functionality in a separate paragraph and while it's safe, it doesnt appear to be intended for regular use instead of simple upgrade09:50
ObrienDavei always use dist-upgrade09:51
gry!dist-upgrade09:51
ubottuA dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention.09:51
grythis tells some more09:51
grythey serve different purpose09:52
Vooloois there a server manager or something else that can notify me of updates/do the updates when ubuntu needs to upgrade etc. I can't keep logging into multiple servers to check this stuff manually.09:53
gryVooloo, see https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/automatic-updates.html and please keep an eye on it, check root mail or something just in case09:54
grywell its 10.04, i should find something similar for new09:54

lamrzhello, I created a dd image of a hard drive. therefore is it ok to keep using the hard drive now ( I need disk space), being sure of that I will not lose its dd image or it will not be distorted in any way (unless, of course, the hardware on which it is saved fails) ?11:48
lamrzI mean whether the dd image will not be distorted in any way11:49
Quoexltheoretically it should be fine11:49

wget(11:51:47 AM) gry: !dist-upgrade12:02
wgetI know the difference between dist-upgrade and a simple upgrade, that's not the question. The question is updating this way stable on Ubuntu?12:02
wgete.g. if unity relies on a lib 1.X and I've an app that relies on that same lib. An update is available for that app. The new version require version 2.X of that lib + another one. An apt-get upgrade won't update that app because it has a new dependency. If I do a dist-upgrade my app will be upgraded and the lib will be upgraded to 2.X and the other dependency will be installed. All these upgrades could break unity dependencies and Ubuntu will complain.12:02
wgetObrienDave: ^12:02
ObrienDavei always use dist-upgrade12:03
wgetObrienDave: No problem on your side?12:03
ObrienDavenope, i run Xubuntu12:03
wgetObrienDave: Ok. :D My neightbour uses Ubuntu (Unity version)12:04
lamrzQuoexl, humbag, I was disconnected, sorry if you posted for me meanwhile..12:04
lamrzhumbag, I'd imaged it from live distro, yes12:05
histolamrz: a dd image is a bit by bit copy of whatever you fed to it.  So if you gave it your hd like if=/dev/sda  then it's a copy of everything on that drive including the partitioning, free space, slack etc...  if you did if=/dev/sda1  then you just copied partition 112:05
Quoexlnope didnt say a word12:05
lamrzhisto, I was wondering if I start reusing the original drive again, trusting that I have its image now. the reason being that I need disk space12:05
lamrzif I can* start12:06
philinuxwget;~ since a while back ubuntu puts out updates in a phased way via software updater. This is to prevent borking all users if something really gets messed up. i'll try to find a linky12:07
histolamrz: if you are really concerned you could compute a hash of the drive compared to the dd image and see that they match12:07
wgetphilinux: Then updating via CLI isn't recommended then? I don't know if Software Updater is still using apt-get.12:09
philinuxwget;~ this was the rational https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhasedUpdates12:09

ObrienDavewget, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade12:09
lamrzhisto, I trust that they match, it is not my concern. I'd more like to know if I can trust dd image's durability, that is, whether it stays intact throughout a possibly long recovery operation. in other words, whether if I can safely resume using the original drive.12:10
philinuxwget;~ do a net search for ubuntu phased updates12:10
Quoexl!works for me12:10
ubottuCommon Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.12:10
histolamrz: to answer your question yes it's safe... However in the work I do we create hashes and verify.12:10
Quoexltrust, but verify12:11
lamrzhisto, thank you! I can also do the hash verification, but never did it before. could you maybe have a link for it?12:11
philinuxwget;~ you will notice now that if you say run software updater there maybe no updates offered. But if you run the cli commands there are updates.12:12
philinuxthis is phased updates at work12:12
histolamrz: have you since booted the drive after running the dd?12:12
lamrzhisto, yes12:12

wgetphilinux: Ok, as I said, I'm a dev and ArchLinux user, I won't use Ubuntu by myself. So couldn't say when updates will be offered to the user. Personally, what I saw, I dist-upgraded the machine after first install and rebooted. After the reboot, the software manager was proposing me updates I've had already installed.12:14
lamrzhisto, thank you! I was also trying to find the exiftool command to delete image metadata, might you have this command?12:14
wgetphilinux: The phased out technique could explain why.12:14
philinuxwget;~ exactly12:14
philinuxwget;~ if you'd gone ahead with the updater it would have checked again and it would have seen that you installed stuff already12:15
philinuxwget;~ for a novice user I'd stick with software updater12:16
wgetphilinux: So for now, if the user wants to use Software Center (and he will, since he isn't tech savvy), I won't use dist-upgrade the machine.12:16
wgetphilinux: Your asumption is only right if the app is already launched. The notification "new updates are available" doesn't check again, according to my tests.12:16
neutralizer"is there a portable system analysis app for ubuntu which can run under "Try Ubuntu" (the option you get when you boot from USB)? I need it to check laptop battery charge/discharge rate plus for HDD read/write speeds etc" and also shows how battery is comparison to new battery and how HDD is in comparison to new HDD.12:16

AnalogDitigalHi guys, I'm on Precise (12.04). The OS doesn't recongise the CD drive. All the google results for people with the same problem brought up people who had managed to get it working by physically removing and replugging it after changing a switch position, or cleaning it etc. Any software troubleshooting?12:35
AnonLuciferyo!12:36
daftykinsAnalogDitigal: ignoring the installed OS, is it able to boot a liveDVD?12:37
daftykinsso that you know it works12:37

AnalogDitigalOerHeks - Not even able to do that. Pressing the button doesn't even open the drive.12:39

AnalogDitigaldaftykins - lol. yup. raub, OerHeks - What I'm asking is...isn't it possible that the drive works fine in Windows, and doesn't even get power, in Ubuntu? Is the power/eject drive mechanism completely independent of OS? (brb... trawling through dmesg)12:46

daftykinsAnalogDitigal: is this a desktop or laptop? your ideas are pretty crazy12:48
raubAaruni: Do you know if the ethernet device was recognized at boot time? Do you know who is controlling it? Does it show up in, say, ifconfig or maybe even lspci or /proc/net?12:48
AnalogDitigaldaftykins, OerHeks, raub - laptop. And no, not able to find anything about a cd-rom in dmesg12:48
shelloxhi, is anyone using high resolution ultrabooks here(2560 x 1440 or higher)12:48
Aaruniraub: it doesn't show up in ifconfig. in lspci, it does show up, but as an unclaimed network device12:49
ObrienDaveaarontc, proprietary driver?12:49
raubAnalogDitigal: so it did not recognize it. Have you tried booting off a livecd as suggested to see if it is there? Have you consider it might be a bit loose 9physical)?12:50
AnalogDitigaldaftykins, raub, OerHeks - perhaps I should've skipped mentioning "getting power". What I mean is that pressing the button doesn't do anything. The LED doesn't light up, nor does the drive pop-out. (It's an Acer TravelMate P-643M)12:50
OerHeksAnalogDitigal, one step you can do: open terminal( ctrl alt T):  eject # this softwarecommand will release cd-rom tray12:50

AnalogDitigalraub, OerHeks, daftykins - yeah.. I'll check the LiveCD now. (raub - I did lshw | grep *cd-rom >> nothing)12:52
raubjust grepping for cdrom might not suffice; it could be using something else12:53
daftykinsAnalogDitigal: since it's a laptop, power off, pull the mains and battery, then power on and enter BIOS, try to eject. Consider removing a single screw underneath to reseat the drive too, if you feel confident. But yes - this is not ubuntu :)12:53
raubAaruni: when you do find out, let us know. That said AFAIK atheros is usually wireless12:54
AnalogDitigaldaftykins - haha.. Will do. Thanks guys! (cc @raub, OerHeks)12:54
raubAdding to what daftykins said,while you are there, go to the bios and see if it sees the drive12:54

lamrzhello again, I have two OS running on my device, and I'd like to access the home folder of the other OS. some time ago I'd used a command with ecryptfs to do so, but I cant remember it anymore. could you maybe help please?13:08
ActionParsnipSagar: why are you using aptitude?13:08
odisalamrz: two instances of Ubuntu?13:08
lamrzodisa, correct13:08
ugx578lamrz: do you still have the pass/keys?13:09
odisalamrz: ahh hmm.. I had to do that to after encrypting one of the home folders.. trying to remember how I remedied that13:09
SagarActionParsnip: i thought i could solve the issue13:09
lamrzodisa, I just want to access home folder13:09
ActionParsniplamrz: which 2 OSes do you have?13:09
lamrzugx578, yes13:09
lamrz12.04 and 14.0413:09
lamrzActionParsnip, 12.04 and 14.0413:09
odisaI think it may have been a chown/chmod thing13:09
ActionParsniplamrz: seems weird to run that....13:09
ugx578lamrz: if you can see the others file system, say see 12.04's from 14.04, you can mount the folder13:10
lamrzActionParsnip, if it can be done without it, the better :)13:10
Somayaefhowlett may be i made mistake on booting my flash do you have any direction to how boot the usb13:10
ActionParsniplamrz: without what?13:10
AaruniSagar: I'm not sure about this, but try to purge libc6, and then try again ?13:10
TJ-lamrz: "man ecryptfs-mount-private"13:10
lamrzugx578, I try to see 14.04. from 12.04. but there is a file named "access your private data.desktop" there13:11
odisaI'm looking to give a shot at developing an indicator for Ubuntu, but the links in this reference page are dead: https://unity.ubuntu.com/projects/appindicators/13:11
ikoniado not try to purge libc613:11
ObrienDaveSomaya, we told you, you have to set it up in BIOS to read the USB drive first13:11
odisaWhat is a good resource to start with?13:11
lamrzActionParsnip, maybe I got your previous comment wrong..I thought you meant using that command wouldnt be necessary13:11
SagarAaruni and ActionParsnip: >>> http://pastebin.com/utrxXjsJ13:11
Somayado you people have any direction to how boot the usb13:11
lamrzTJ- , thank you!13:11
ugx578lamrz: I think your looking for a .Private folder to mount with ecryptfs13:11
ikoniaSomaya: set boot device in your bios,13:12
ikoniaSomaya: that's all you need to do13:12
odisaSomaya: get into your BIOS boot settings13:12
odisaUsually it's escape or one of the function keys13:12

lamrzanyway, I'm switching to the other system..seems faster :)13:13
Sagar??13:13
ObrienDaveSomaya, research your computer model for BIOS settings13:13
odisaSomaya: when you start your computer, hit the appropriate key before it gets the chance to get to the login screen13:13
AaruniSomaya: when the computer is booting up, you'll usually see something like "Press esc to enter BIOS setup", or similar13:13
ugx578lamrz: sudo mount -t ecryptfs (14.04computer)/home/username/.Private (wherever on 12.02)13:14
AaruniSagar: dunno.13:14
Sagar:o13:14
ugx578lamrz: and vice versa13:14
lamrzugx578, thank you! I've now already started the other OS, but next time I'll try the command13:15
ObrienDaveSomaya, i've seen, F2, F1, F10, F12, home, delete, esc. could be any one of those or others13:15

Slartmikecmpbll: why not make it reboot a bit later.. shutdown has a switch for added time, I think13:57
Slartmikecmpbll: so the cronjob runs the command to "reboot in 30 minutes".. even if it then adjusts the clock it won't go back to before the reboot command was run13:58
Slartmikecmpbll: or you can just run the ntp daemon to adjust the clock continously.. or run a clock update around 3-ish... chose your poison =)13:58

Slartlamrz: search for "recovering your mount passphrase" on that page14:13
nikolamI would really like to know who made ALL the names of ALL PPAs I had installed in 13.10, appear like "disabled in updates to trustu"14:14
ObrienDavenikolam, safety feature14:14
cfhowlettnikolam this ^^14:14
nikolammore like some moronic "feature" ..14:15
Slartnikolam: so, it didn't add "disabled" to the name? just replaced the name? annoying...14:15
nikolamyup14:15
nikolamit was problem also before, just it is not fixed, becaus enoone cares14:15
ObrienDavebetter than borking your install due to outdated PPAs14:16
trijntjenikolam, just use a search and replace function to restore the names, even gedit can do that for you14:16
SlartObrienDave: noone arguing that disabling the repos was bad.. but replacing the name "My awesome repository for firefox special updates" with just "disabled" is just mean.. why not just add disabled to the name so you still know what it was14:17
nikolamtrijntje, no I will not. Use search replace on system files. no thank you, this is not 199314:17
lamrzSlart, thank you, I have the generated (mount) passphrase now. now, with this, will I be able to access my other OS' home folder?14:17
nikolamseems like comment is displayed first if it is enabled under repo. so removing comment might display it right14:18
Slartlamrz: I have no idea.. I have never used encryption myself.. just had luck with the google gods =)14:18
lamrzSlart, I once used it, and was able to move the contents of my home folder into this private directory created by ecryptfs, I think..but it's been a long time, so forgot how it was done.14:19
oalAny ideas why I get "The following packages have unmet dependencies: libssl-dev : Depends: libssl1.0.0 (= 1.0.1f-1ubuntu2) but 1.0.1f-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed"?14:19
lamrzmy original problem is that HDD of my other is full, so the system starts, but the desktop is shown blank. no launcher, no folder14:19
lamrzthis way I hope to move files from there14:20
lamrzmy other os*14:20
nikolamI mean maybe I am the one who can do surgery on my list of PPA on every upgrade but regular user will just be left without PPAs without understanding what killed it's apps14:20

ugx578Flolila: everything is pointing to that14:35
AaruniI have a problem in Ubuntu with disk transfers. Whenever I transfer files, disk usage shoots to a very high value, but the whole system is pretty much unusable till the file transfer is complete. ( http://edufor.fosspowered.com/img/image.php?di=I05G ). Is this a bug?14:35

trijntjenikolam, then go and fix it yourself, and stop bothering us with it14:36
Slartodisa: try this    gnome-terminal -x bash -c "sensors | grep temp; bash"14:36
odisaSlart: looks useful, I'll see what I can extract from that, thanks14:36
odisaSlart: so it will run in bash?14:36
trijntjeAaruni, which version of ubuntu are you using?14:37
Slartodisa: yes.. it will run gnome-terminal and then run bash in that terminal to run your command14:37
nikolamtrijntje, no problem with you 2 people is that you attack every meaningfull contribution in a form of reports a bout problems . And create negative attitude toward contribution. Why it that, that is your f. problem, not mine.14:37

Tin_mani've a 32 gig flash drive, it's empty, i've formated it as ext4, and ntfs, and fat, all operations tried to this device says the disk is full, when using startup disk creator, and trying to erase the data thats not there, get a large error message, nothing will write to it, won't back up data to it.. any clues?14:39
Slartodisa: but does it work when you run it from another terminal?14:39
AaruniTin_man: is it transcend ?14:39
trijntjeAaruni, which kernel are you using (uname -a) in a terminal, it could be related to the problem fixed here14:39

Tin_manthanks14:40
Tin_mani'll check back14:40
odisaSlart: it works from terminal yes14:40
trijntjeAaruni, ok, in that case you have the patch described in that link, nevermind14:40
Slartodisa: perhaps a reboot will make the shortcuts come back?14:41
Slartodisa: if it works from a terminal it should work from a shortcut, afaik14:41

loahow many information is on one "bad sector"?14:46
loahow i can get this information?14:46
ObrienDaveloa, depends on your HD14:46
ugx578loa: if it's a bad sector i think the hard drive skips right over it, it decreases the size of the drive14:46
Slartloa: I think that might depend on the hard drive... wasn't it a new thing with 4k sectors recently? that should give you an idea14:47
loaugx578, so i want to know how much real space i have...14:47
loai have now 18880 bad sectors.14:47
cfhowlett_loa  run a terminal:  free14:47
holsteinloa: if you have many, the drive is likely dying.. you should ask the manufacturer,or consult a hardware specific support avenue14:47
ugx578loa: what it reports is the actual space you have, the hardware is doing the skipping not the os14:47
Slartloa: I think that disk is dying anyway.. don't count on using it for long14:47
cfhowlett_loa no not that.  sorry.14:47
holsteinloa: if i saw that list, i wouldnt trust the drive any longer..14:48
ObrienDaveloa, you need to know the size of sectors, how many are good and do the math14:48
compdocloa, time for a new drive14:48
cfhowlett_loa hardware failure is coming for you at the worst time.  plan on it.14:48
loai need to finish my work...14:48
loaand i already have failures today14:48
CalimeroTeknikwell you need to take care of this first14:48
ObrienDaveloa, you NEED to change the drive14:48
Slartloa: I don't think the hard drive will care about your work.. it's dying..14:48
cfhowlett_loa go ahead.  your HDD is still going to fail exactly when you don't want it to.14:48
holsteinloa: you wont "finish your work" on that drive..14:49
lamrzugx578, hello back, I am asked this upon running 'sudo ecryptfs-recover-private' : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7623859/  ..yet when I view folders in nautilus, there are about 21 folders  under .Private (which I dont know why should be asked to be recovered), and besides, my home folder is here: /media/otherhomefolder/home/username/14:49
holsteinloa: *all* drives fail.. so make sure you always have backups14:49
loaholstein, my work not on my harddirve )14:49
loai need working station...14:49
cfhowlett_loa backup your work to a usb, go to school and head for the computer lab.  not an ubuntu issue we can help with.14:49
holsteinloa: sure.. but, if your work is on your hard drive...14:49
luckybunnygeneral computing question, more than a ubuntu one.. but is it possible to set up a port forward in a way that a service is accessible on the same port, regardless which (of two or more computers) machine is listening?14:49

cfhowlett_loa you drive could crash in the next minute, hour or day.  PLAN on this catastrophe, because it is coming your way.14:50
Aarunihelpy: try running install as sudo14:50

loacfhowlett_, ok) but can you please again and explain with bad blocks. i have partition for 700gb and i see that drive have 18880 bad sectors. so i don't really have 700gb? and if system tries to record something to bad sector i will have filure?14:52

luckybunnywell I'm setting up an IRC bouncer (ZNC) which normally runs on my desktop on one port. I have a couple of users on the LAN. Occasionally, I want to log out of my desktop and switch to Windows, and would like to run the same ZNC server on my laptop when I do that. If I start changing ports around, though, that could get a bit of a lengthy struggle, if I could just copy configs and forget about cha14:54
cfhowlett_loa here's the technical description; your drive is failing.  it will fail at the worst possible moment.  this is a hardware issue and requires a hardware solution; replacement.  UNTIL you replace it, expect increasingly unstable and weird behavior.14:54
luckybunnychanging ports14:54
lamrzugx578, thank you so much!14:54
ugx578lamrz: you got it to work?14:55
lamrzugx578, no, it is at the same point as I reported14:55
luckybunnyI did toy with the idea of putting ZNC on windows, but idk... overlapping downtimes via laptop seems better, as well as it being ubuntu, I know what I'm doing lol14:55
Aaruniit seems that the installer tries to get root by "su root", and not by"sudo su", so you need to provide your root password, and not your sudo password.14:55
cfhowlett_!root14:56
ubottuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo14:56
Slartluckybunny: if you don't have to run both at the same time I would just change the forwarding when I want to use the laptop.. that way the external stuff stays the same even though you switch things around on the inside of your network14:56
Vivekanandais there a way to figure out when a software was updated. my firefox was working fine just a day ago and suddenly started hanging ( screen going a little dark). I also see that it says a plugin 'classic compact'  is not available for firefox 29  but it was working 2 days ago14:56

Vivekanandabut what happened was I got firefox 29 :( and had removed firefox 26. I was quite happy with 26. Can I get it back somehow14:59
philinuxhelpy;~ maybe you need to put sudo in front of your install.sh command14:59
helpyhow is that different from running it with root access philinux?15:00
CalimeroTeknikdon't "maybe with sudo"15:00
naji'm using lubuntu and i can connect to ethernet but wen i try to connect to any wireless it says Out Of Range!? and it is not out of range!15:00

najOOOO15:06
lamrzugx578, I have two OS running on the computer, and each has its own login password..which one of these should the password be?15:06
odisait says that after attempting?15:06

ugx578nikolam: from years ago last time i checked15:09

=== EzeQL____ is now known as EzeQL
ugx578what was i thinking then.... that was pretty broad but something with openvpn and that gui is broken15:10
streulmaugx578 same problem15:10
nikolamoh, module000 , then what were you reffering to ugx578 ?15:10
daftykinsstreulma: releases don't tend to jump major kernel versions15:10
module000ugx578: what portion of the GUI is not working for you?15:10
ugx578the openvpn plugin for network-manager, i stopped using it because of that bug and learned the openvpn command line lol15:10
streulmaugx578: you can go to system preferences and then network and add openvpn15:11
lamrzugx578, yes, I'm trying with the right home folder password, the cursor keeps blinking like, forever. does it take very long?15:11
ugx578i guess it's been so long i haven't switched back15:11
Picixtristan: [package_name]=[software_version]~[dfsg(if repackaged w/o non-free elements)]-[debian_build_#]ubuntu[ubuntu_build_#]15:11
nikolamlol ugx578 maybe that's the way to learn more :15:11
ugx578maybe that bug was in 13.10 lol15:11
module000ugx578: it works fine, you have to keep in mind the plugin integrates with resolvconf/dnsmasq, which the command line cannot15:11
nikolameven better if we fix it15:11
streulmadaftykins: what do you mean? Ubuntu 14.04 will never be officially upgraded to 3.14 ??15:12
xtristan@Pici thanks — the repackaged w/o non-free elements is super helpful.15:12
nikolamaha... it integrates.15:12
ugx578module000: ya I always had to modify the vpn configs to handle dns15:12
xtristan@Pici is there any way that I could programmatically predict that?  i'm writing server automation scripts and want to be able to query a package manager for a specific version15:13
streulmaugx578: I do it on server side, changing dns15:13
daftykinsstreulma: i don't know for sure, sometimes newer kernels in newer releases get backported, such as the LTS enablement stack for 12.04 - you'd have to check info on the site, nobody here is foficial to comment15:13
daftykinsofficial too15:13
module000ugx578: everyone messes that part up. you have to send the push stanza for dns from the server side and the  NM will feed that into dnsmasq15:13
Picixtristan: everything before the ~ should be the software version, which presumably what you really care about.  After that, you should be able to sort the results to find the most recent package.15:14
module000it isnt as intuitive as it could be though, some usability contributions would be nice for many uaers15:14
ugx578module000 i'd like to find a way to lock dns to interface15:15
xtristanPici: it's headless, so would just be package=version_number ?15:15
lamrzugx578, when I press 'enter' again while the cursor blinks, it gives this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7623987/15:15
Picixtristan: That looks right to me15:15
xtristanPici: Works for me.  I really appreciate your help and hope you have a good day15:16
ugx578lamrz: tail /var/syslog see if there's some more info, but it looks like it was the wrong password15:16
Picixtristan: np :)15:16
luckybunnyI don't expect anyone to know the answer to this but anyway. I have a package on my desktop that makes the terminal a little prettier by adding a better looking command line. Instead of user@host:~$, it has something more like ~>$>15:16
ugx578lamrz: that or the file's been damaged, then your sol15:16
luckybunnythe question is, what the hell was that package called?15:16
ugx578lamrz: your running that as root right?15:17
ugx578lamrz: or sudo?15:17
xtristanluckybunny: you can use anything to set your shell variable, but perhaps you're thinking of oh-my-zsh?15:17
luckybunnyactually, I should take a screenie15:17
Piciluckybunny: custom $PROMPT on bash, or zsh, or csh, or ksh, or sh, or fish or...15:18
luckybunnymore like custom appearance of a regular prompt15:18

lamrzugx578, yes, I ran 'sudo ecryptfs-recover-private'15:20
luckybunnyhttp://i.imgur.com/Wmpipmu.png ignore the picture in the back, that's just my desktop background15:20
ugx578lamrz: if you actually setup the recovery passphrase instead of clicking cancel right after installation like everyone does, you could try that instead of your password, when it asks for login say no15:20
ugx578lamrz: then it'll ask you for the recovery passphrase lol15:21

lamrzor /dev/sdb316:32

ugx578lamrz: no that's going to get you all of / the whole drive, your home directory will actually be encrypted and you'll have the same pain in the ass16:33
iptablelamrz, /dev/sdYX - these are actual partitions. when you mount, a driver reads a filesystems and puts it's contents i na directory for you to access.16:33
SagarServer is fine now!16:33
iptablelamrz, /dev/sda, dev/sdb - your drives. the numbers behind are respective partitions on each drive16:33

dj_beiruthi. i am having a problem installing BT keyboard. when i do: bluez-simple-agent hci0 E0:2A:82:2A:40:D0 it says: Creating device failed: org.bluez.Error.ConnectionAttemptFailed: Page Timeout16:39
iptableclamiax, what graphics card?16:39
lamrziptable, you mean the command is correct without -t and (ext2/ext3/ext4) ?16:39
dj_beirutanyone  can help?16:40
holsteindj_beirut: has anything used bluetooth in linux on that machine? have you connected the keyboard to supported bt hardware and operating system? to confirm its functioning?16:40
_TeO_.16:40
dj_beirutholstein i have connected the keyboard to several other laptops including this one when it was om windows 7 and it was working perfectly.16:40
holsteindj_beirut: so, you can assume the device is functioning properly.. how about the bluetooth radio on the machine? is it working with *any* bt device in linux?16:41
clamiaxiptable: Intell 3rd Gen16:42
dj_beirutholstein i have not tested other bt devices because i don't have any others. but the radio is supposed to be working since it was working when windows was installed earlier today16:42
holsteindj_beirut: no.. thats not something you can assume.. you have 2 devices, that i see, that are not promised to work in linux.. the BT keyboard *and* the BT hardware on the machine.. i would want to make sure to test the BT on the machien as well, and not assume the keyboard supporting linux is the issue16:43
holsteindj_beirut: the fact that it works in windows, as promised, can only tell you the device is not broken, and likely funcitoning properly..16:44
designbybeckHow do I setup hot corners in 14.04? I thought Ubuntu Tweak had it in there?16:44
dj_beirutholstein ok.. what do you want me to test.16:44
holsteindj_beirut: im just saying what i would test.. i would test the BT on the device in linux.. seperate from the keyboard.. you are saying the keyboard doesnt work, and im saying, you dont know that the BT works in general16:44
lamrzugx578, the command includes -t and (ext2/ext3/ext4), is that correct?16:45
lim-ladmOerHeks: but a error or not?16:45
dj_beiruthostein how can i test if the BT is working?16:45
ugx578lamrz ya but just one of ext2 or ext3 or ext4 depending on what it is and no ()16:45
holsteindj_beirut: i would use a device that i know works with bt in linux..16:45

iptabledj_beirut, to test if your bluetooth is working, connect it to your phone and check if you can make calls16:50
neilbadhello16:50
ugx578lamrz: ya that should do it, but that will do your whole directory so you've gotta have space, also you should probably make a folder in notfullmount/(dump) for orginization or it's going to be scattered all over your / when you log into the not full computer16:50
iptabledj_beirut, to check if your bluetooth on the PC is working, pair with phone and try to send/receive data16:50

iptabledj_beirut, and if it does, THEN pair some headset or something else that is known to work with linux with that headless box, if THAT works, THEN try to pair the keyboard to the box16:57

Fyodorovna!rm | lamrz17:03
ubottulamrz: The Unix 'rm' command removes files and directories from the filesystem. It is an extremly powerful tool, and you should not run 'rm' commands unless you fully understand them. Do not run arbitrary 'rm' commands you see online. For a beginning guide on using terminal commands, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal and for a cautionary story about 'rm' see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL_g0tyaIeE17:03

lamrzugx578, when I'm already got stuck because of the full folder, I dont want to cause further problems. I'm not advanced enough to know the rm command. just wondering if there is no other way to delete just a single file to make the partition breathe again.17:05
lamrzif there is any other way, I mean17:05
ugx578lamrz: ya it's just rm (file)17:05

rombaHey guys I need some help with pulse audio on UBUNTU 14.04 - How can i disable the microphone autogain ?17:07
lamrzFyodorovna, we've been using command line with ugx578, because home folder wasnt accessible via GUI, as it had a passphrase.17:07
Fyodorovnalamrz, Ah, encryption, lol, perfect example why people should not be using it unless really needed.17:08
lamrzFyodorovna, thank you.17:09
Fyodorovnathanks for the info17:09
Slartromba: that's probably an alsa setting.. I don't think pulseaudio does that kind of stuff17:09
lamrzwill someone help me to proceed from the point I am?17:09
Slartromba: try running   alsamixer    in a terminal17:09
rombaSlart, :  Ok, if it's ALSA, where should i be looking ?17:10
lamrzugt578, understandably you're busy. maybe someone else can help me bring it to the end?17:10
lamrzugx578,  understandably you're busy. maybe someone else can help me bring it to the end?17:10
rombaSlart, i've already checked the alsamixer, but there's no option to disable it17:10
Slartromba: well.. then I don't really know.. if alsa doesn't know how to do it you might be out of luck. Can't you just turn the recording volume down to compensate?17:11
rombaSlart, on the other hand the real issue is when i'm trying to make VoIP calls with viber linux client, where as the microphone volume keeps changing automatically, and viber uses WEBRTC17:12
Slartromba: Are you sure that it's not the voip client that changes the volume?17:12
lamrzwill someone help me please?17:12
Slartromba: or it does the same thing when you're just using the microphone for regular sound recording?17:13
rombaSlart,  it could possibly be the client, as i don't see a problem with skype calls or any other app17:13
rombaSlart,  i haven't really tried normal recording applications17:13
skinuxHow can I merge Ubuntu's partition with an unallocated partition or Ext4 partition?17:13

rombaSlart,  some how the volume level always settle at the top edge of the software amplified level17:15
Slartromba: I'm looking through the viber documentation at the moment.. haven't really found anything yet17:15
lamrzugx578, I know where the file to be deleted is.17:15
Slartromba: there are no volume settings in viber like there is in skype?17:16
rombaSlart,  i just assumed if we can disable the automatic gain, it will settle at the normal maximum volume level17:16
rombaSlart,  there are just two controls to control input and output volume, nothing about gains or noise cancellations or any17:16

rombano, i've skype installed but no google talk17:26
rombaSlart,  i read some posts about google-talk settings alteration to stop the automatic gain, but the files did not exist as i don't have the google talk :)17:27
Slartromba: hmm.. I can't find anything about viber auto-adjusting recording volume.. there are some stuff about google talk and plenty of stuff about skype fiddling with the volume settings..17:28
rombaSlart,  yea i'm also troubled coz skype works perfectly here17:28
Slartromba: and nothing about your laptop model doing it either.. not really sure where to look17:28
Slartromba: and it's not skype running in the background messing things up?17:29
rombaSlart,  anyway to disable the microphone amplification on ALSA17:29
rombaSlart,  100% positive it's not skype in background, i've already checked that one17:29
Slartromba: yes, it's in the  alsamixer thing.. if your soundcard supports it there is a on/off switch for microphone boost and a volume slider for microphone input17:30

qballerSo what do you guys use to code C++ in Linux land ? Did some C a couple of years ago. Hailing from years of windows Vim isn't the thing for me.18:58
qballer(Even though people who use vim/emacs look like they work really fast)18:58
robynata8-)18:58
mexi_d3qballer: There are IDE. For example jetbrains or eclipse.18:59
mexi_d3qballer: Pretty much the same tools on windows: most of them are crossplatform.18:59
robynata:-D19:00
flux242qballer: sublime tex19:00
flux242t19:00
qballerOn windows Visual Studio is the best. I was thinking on doing things the Linux way... Like shell toolchain. From what I read, I need to break free from windows way of thinking.19:00
mexi_d3shell toolchain works fine on windows too :-)19:00
qballerTrue.19:01
flux242for small project I use sublime. It's fast and does well project management19:01
mexi_d3qballer: I've been killing processes in windows using shell for a while19:01
flux242eclipse is too heavy and takes ages to start19:01
nowthatsamattIf one apt repository fails how can I make it use a secondary choice?  Like when http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ fails, I would like to use http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/.19:01
qballerpavlos: I'm all synced ;) just for you!19:02
mexi_d3eclipse has similar features to Visual studio19:02
mexi_d3they start up in about the same time :-)19:02
flux242sublime text has vim mode too!19:02
qballerI will rephrase my question - What do you use.19:02
mexi_d3qballer: emacs and pycharm19:02
mexi_d3qballer: pycharm doesn't work for c++19:03
flux242sublime, eclipse19:03
mexi_d3qballer: Sublime is very similar to notepad++19:03
qballerSounds like a python thing... :D19:03
hessuomg network dropped the connection19:03
qballerstill no go.19:03
mexi_d3eclipse is a full c++ ide though19:03
mexi_d3I presume you need an integrated debugger, and code completion, etc?19:04

abbiyai have used the unetboot and pendrivelinux to create my bootable usb but the installation process is not proceeding after choosing the option "install now" and it always goes back to the boot screen again19:13
jvarcabaholstein, Im streaming local tv from http://www.ltv.lv/lv/tieshraide/ltv1-test/live.360/ , but I want to get the actual stream url to play it with vlc for example.19:14
holstein!md5 | abbiya19:14
ubottuabbiya: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows19:14
holsteinabbiya: you can try dd copy the iso to the stick..19:14
holsteinabbiya: you should consider another stick as well... if you used the same one19:14
abbiyathe iso hash is correct19:15
holsteinjvarcaba: input it into vlc, but, if they (the creators) dont support vlc, it may not work19:15
holsteinabbiya: ok, so that leaves the stick, if you have not tested it19:15
jvarcabaholstein, exactly , I want to get the actual stream url from the webpage.19:15
holsteinjvarcaba: ok19:16
holsteinjvarcaba: askthem for it19:16
holsteinjvarcaba: they may not intend/want you to have it, or provide the content that way19:16
pavlosabbiya, so you are able to run the live CD, it messes up when you try to install, right?19:16

qballerholstein: OK.. I think pavlos said this chipset is support dell-vostro 3500 and it isn't failing because 10 minutes ago (more like 2 hours) I had windows which worked fine.19:26

ubottuA netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit20:55

SchallaHello folks. I got some weird problems. I start my IDE with my local user, schalla, and want to save to a directory which is chown'ed by www-data:www-data. I added schalla to the www-data group using usermod -a -G www-data schalla, id schalla + groups schalla show me as member, but still I get permission denied while the chmod of the file is -rw-rw-r--21:02
Glorfindel!help21:02
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience21:02

GlorfindelCorvette: get a Ford :p Seriously though, what version?21:14
jhutchinsCorvette: The login screen is usually handled by a Display Manger that handles logging in and choosing and launching the Desktop Environment.  I think for vanila ubuntu that would be gdmm, which handles graphic configuration in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf.21:16
webber_Hi. I used parted to create a logical partition, and tried to use mkfs to make it into an ext4 partition. It gives some IO error , then proceeds to create the partition, but parted never views it as ext4 .   http://pastebin.com/Zk66A9Ba    Anyone have any suggestions?21:16
jhutchinsCorvette: When gdm hands off to the desktop, the configuration is handled by files in /etc/Xorg/ like xorg.conf and xorg.conf.d/*21:16
webber_Notice how parted's --list command doesn't say ext4 under Filesystem21:17
jhutchinsCorvette: For most systems, the details are auto-configured at startup, but if you've configured something manually like an nvidia card, the handoff appears to be failing.21:17
Jordan_Uwebber_: Do you have any important data on this drive that isn't backed up?21:18
jhutchinsCorvette: So the first thing I'd do is move/rename any xorg configuration files you've created and see what happens then.21:18
jhutchinsCorvette: (restart x by restarting gdm).21:18
Fritzenduganso somehow I seemed to have accidentally uninstalled whatever package is responsible for the "system settings" GUI thingy in Ubuntu Trusty. What package do I need to reinstall?21:19
Jordan_Uwebber_: An IO error like that is probably a hardware failure, so this drive may be failing (or the SATA cable may be loose, or something else).21:19
Jordan_UFritzendugan: gnome-control-center most likely.21:20
FritzenduganJordan_U, thanks, but it seems that package is already installed and up to date.21:20

I can't listen the music as confortable as I expected. My system details: ATI Radeon HD 5800 (all drivers have been installed) AMD Athlon x64 processor and Ubuntu 14.04 x64 system21:46
jhutchinsozbrk: Something like spotify freezing just isn't anything to go on.  Our best response would be "yeah, so?".  We don't know what you're connecting with (browser?) what release you're on, what hardware you have, what your LAN connection is, what your WAN connection is, whether any other streaming services work well or badly.  Way too many variables.21:46
ozbrkjhutchins: try to ask me what do you want to knoe my browser is chorimium21:47
jhutchinsozbrk: What client did you try to install and how?  WHat speed are you trying to stream?  Do slower streams work?21:47
jhutchinsozbrk: What about other streams like pandora or soma.fm?21:48
ozbrkjhutchins: offical way which released by spotify on their webpage (link will be here at least one mintes ) and I haven't tried other streams yet  and my connection speed is gfair enough for me (Turkish TTNET is always bad compairing by rest of the worlds internet service providers ofc)21:49
forestguess this was a waist of time21:49
forestwaste21:49
jhutchinsozbrk: There is no way to be sure that a client downloaded from spotify actually works on your version of ubuntu.21:50
jhutchinsozbrk: Many streaming services offer different speed streams, you can see if a slower one works more smoothly.21:51
ozbrkjhutchins: well it is just a prewiev21:51

Viking667I've got a desktop problem. I have a 1920x1080 screen, that I occasionally drop down to 1360x768 to play games with. What I've noticed with xfwm4 and gnome-shell since the update to 14.04 is that the desktop now appears to have a virtual size that's still 1920x1080, even though I select a smaller screen mode.22:08
Viking667What on earth can I do about this?22:08
ChibaPetViking667: You can maybe try to set the size in advance of launching your game.22:09
Viking667that works for viewport, not for desktop.22:09
imvladimirwouldn’t using a lower res in the game be better?22:11
imvladimirsince the game could still render at 1080P even if your res is at 720P22:11
mexi_d3Viking667: If nvidia, their proprietary driver thing has a setting to configure scaling.22:13
ChibaPetOh, odd. When I'm in the installer, doing manual partitioning, I have the option "physical volume for encryption" but there's no option "physical volume for LVM" - am I missing something? How do I use a raw partition as a physical volume for LVM?22:13
Guido1muddle_: yes, I know that I can do multi grub, but I'f I'm right it's difficult to get windows on a logical partition22:16
Guido1muddle_: yes, I could instal it in a virtual box, but that would probaply be slower22:17

moonbughaving a problem installing ubuntu 14.04, since wubi no longer gives the installation type screen, when it gets to where to install ubuntu, the window is blank, and crashes installation. I already manually made space by shrinking my win 8.1 I'm dual-booting. I tried creating a ext4 with gparted, but it wont work,22:21
Picimoonbug: wubi does not work with windows 8.22:23
Viking667I've got a workspace manager under xfwm4, and I see a blue rectangle inside a larger rectangle that's supposed to represent my view... I'm wondering why the desktop stays the same size, though the viewport resizes?22:24
moonbugyeah I'm gathering that Pici, but I downloaded wubi directly, installed on win, and it worked22:24
Viking667(and, ATI card, using the opensource driver)22:24
Picimoonbug: it sounds like it isn't working.22:25
moonbugwell, it worked except the lack of installlation type screen, which is a crucial step22:25
moonbugit just skipped that step, and went past it22:26
Picimoonbug: Like I said, it does not work with Windows 8.  Additionally, most people here would suggest that you do a real install instead of Wubi anyway.22:26

PiciChibaPet: not really..22:29
Pici!minimal | ChibaPet22:29
ubottuChibaPet: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD22:29
Picimoonbug: Wubi is a Windows application.  You should get the "Try Ubuntu" thing if you boot off the disk.22:30

ChibaPetI want to get Ubuntu 14.04 on my MacBook Retina (late 2013) but I want LUKS and LVM, because I'm used to that. From what I've read, the version of the kernel that ships has some unpleasant bugs that make btrfs not desireable, even if it would obviate the LVM bit.22:32
PiciChibaPet: I thought that the current gui installer could do that... although I'm not sure about macs...22:33
Jordan_UViking667: Is your CPU 64 bit or 32 bit?22:33
ChibaPetPici: I'm using the straight image, not the Mac image. It has an option for LUKS, but nothing for LVM. I'm going to try installing the LVM package and see if it magically picks up on that being in the live image.22:34
zkvHello22:34
Viking667my CPU is 64-bit, being run in 32-bit so I get a bit more benefit from my 4Gb of memory.22:34

ChibaPetzkv: irssi is pretty flexible if you don't mind a text-based interface.22:36
Viking667If I go 64-bit (and I haven't so far), then I lose the ability to run skype against pulseaudio.22:36
Viking667... I already found THAT out the hard way.22:36
Jordan_UViking667: While you're losing a bit of memory in larger pointers, unless you know your bottleneck is caused by low memory you'll probably gain speed from using newer faster 64 bit instructions.22:36
zkvViking667, ChibaPet thank you22:36
ChibaPetViking667: No, you can run it, you just have use multi-arch and install the 32-bit libraries required.22:36
Viking667tried that, I'm missing something in 32-bit because the 64-bit equivalent is already installed for something.22:36
Viking667I wish I knew what it was, because it's stopping my wife from using Skype while she plays minecraft.22:37
ChibaPetIt's definitely possible, as I've done it recently, but it takes a bit of fiddling.22:37
ChibaPetOn Debian it involves adding the architecture via dpkg and refreshing repos and such.22:37

daftykinsFreeder: no you don't. this is ubuntu, there *is* no root password :)22:46
Schalladaftykins: let me try that. I thought of that too.22:46
muddlethruyeah but everyone thinks you should just use sudo22:47
muddlethrubut you can sudo su, then passwd22:47
Freederlike i said, there's a root user account22:47
daftykinsmuddlethru: you do not run that on ubuntu, please do not advise that in any situation in here.22:47
muddlethruset root password that way22:47
daftykinsmuddlethru: no, that is against ubuntu practice, please stop talking of it.22:47
* muddlethru stops talking22:48
Freederits included in ubuntu, i'd say that's fair to mention22:48
muddlethruanyway it works22:48
kostkon!root22:48
ubottuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo22:48
daftykinsno, sudo su breaks many things on ubuntu systems22:48
daftykinsand setting a password is a bad idea.22:48
Freederthen it should be removed22:48
Viking667then you lose the ability to do ANY admin22:48
Freederbut its still a valid option22:48
daftykinsyou're welcome to discuss policy elsewhere22:49
muddlethruokay okay22:49
Freederyou're the one talking policy22:49
daftykinsFreeder: setting a pass? i appreciate you have opinions but please don't share them here.22:49
Freederwe're talking technical abilities22:49
Freederthe fact that a root user exists isn't an opinion22:49
Jordan_UTeraJL: It's not that Ubuntu is mounting it read-only per-se, it looks like it's mounting it -o rw,errors=remount-ro , and then you're getting an IO error.22:49
daftykins#ubuntu-offtopic for any further talk on this topic please.22:49
Viking667Freeder: the who.... oops, I'll shift this over to -offtopic22:50
Freedertalking about an ubuntu option is off topic?22:50
Jordan_UTeraJL: When you get an IO error you really do want to remount-ro rather than continuing to write to a failing drive (and it appears that your USB drive is failing).22:50
daftykinsFreeder: please don't make this anymore tedious than it is already.22:50
Viking667it's not an ubuntu option, they simply don't create a valid password, so the root account can't be hacked by direct logging in THAT way at least.22:50
Freederagreed.22:51
Viking667Anyhow, 'nuff said.22:51
daftykinsSchalla: so once your user is in the www-data group and the documentroot is owned by www-data:www-data, you can chmod g+w so the group can write and all should be well22:51
Jordan_U!noroot | Freeder22:51
ubottuFreeder: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information.22:51
Viking667daftykins: that sounds almost like a working solution22:52
daftykinsViking667: :D22:52
Viking667bah. I've got to run again... be right back.22:52
Viking667Anyhow, I've got skype (presumably from partner repo) installed, but it only ever goes for non-pulseaudio, and gets stonewalled as soon as something else is using pulseaudio.22:52
Viking667back soon.22:53
Schalladaftykins: Highly appreciated. that works. :)22:53
Jordan_UViking667: Please pastebin the output of "apt-cache policy skype".22:53
daftykinsSchalla: obviously just be mindful of the permissions on any given file :)22:54
daftykinsmy pleasure22:54
Schalladaftykins: Only disadvantage is that now user schalla cannot call anymore chmod on it, right?22:55
mexi_d3is this official? http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/22:57
mexi_d3Or if not official, then accurate?22:57
imvladimirno22:57
imvladimirnot official that is22:58
ChibaPetwhois suggests "not official" as well22:58
daftykinsSchalla: mmm, possibly not22:58
Jordan_Umexi_d3: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/about22:58
imvladimirit should be up-to-date22:58
imvladimiras accurate as the launchpad would be22:59
Schalladaftykins hm, crap.22:59
Schalla:D22:59
mexi_d3I'm trying to work out which recent update is responsible for affecting my wifi22:59
imvladimiryou can just tell by the design, I doubt canonical would come with something like this22:59
mexi_d3imvladimir: Looks no better or worse than launchpad22:59
imvladimirmexi_d3: looks a hundred times worse than launchpad23:00
lamrzhello everyone, how can I see the wi-fi networks that my device has connected about 7-10 days ago?23:00
Viking667comes from TrustyPartners.23:01
imvladimirmexi_d3 try apt-history install23:01
Viking667that's for Jordan_U23:01
Viking667I'll have to hop over and do some of this remotely, wife's hopped onto the machine.23:01
zkvAny idea how can i add flash support for the firefox browser? I have already installed browser plugin but still flash is not working?23:02
mexi_d3there's been some kind of upgrade that's resulted in me seeing some latency in SSH connections over intranet. I'm looking through what was installed to try to find it.23:02
Viking667Jordan_U: right, what else?23:02
daftykins!flash | zkv23:02
ubottuzkv: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also  !Restricted and !Gnash23:02
lolbonerXDwhat is the difference between group and rest of the world in file permissions23:02
daftykinszkv: should be as simple as that23:02
kostkonlamrz, check your logs, e.g. syslog23:02
mexi_d3zkv: I recommend you don't use Flash in firefox, it's an old version, infrequently patched and therefore insecure. Chrome has an updated flash player.23:03
mexi_d3zkv: It also doesn't work on some sites e.g. vimeo23:03
kostkonlamrz, use the System Log app, if it isn't there, select File -> Open, go to /var/log23:03
zkvdaftykins, mexi_d3 thank you very much! I think i should install chrome. What is the name for the chrome package in ubuntu?23:04
mexi_d3zkv: On their website. It's not in repo.23:04
ChibaPetAlright, trying the server image to see if that lets me do more complex partitioning.23:04
daftykinszkv: you can get chromium i think, "chromium-browser" i believe23:05
mexi_d3daftykins: Doesn't have the same flash player, unless you add the ppa. also it can't do PDF forms.23:05
kbrosnanmexi_d3: adobe specificly states that they will support Flash on Linux for 5 years for security issues23:05
zkvmexi_d3, daftykins thank you both for the great information23:05
daftykinsmexi_d3: perhaps that's more relevant information for the person wanting to use it rather than me23:05
mexi_d3daftykins: I think it's relevant to both of you.23:06
daftykinsi disagree but nm23:06
imvladimirdoesn’t chromium come with pepper flash?23:06
lamrzkostkon, I am viewing the syslog, can it be this line: DHCPREQUEST of 'IP' on eth1 to 'IP2' port XX ?23:06
Viking667gah. Every time a coconut. I start Skype, I get "Problem with audio capture"23:06
kostkonlamrz, you should be looking for the SSIDs of the networks23:07
mexi_d3imvladimir: Not any more, no. it's a PPA now.23:07
imvladimirpepper flash is a PPA?23:07
imvladimirhow so?23:07
OerHeks!info pepperflashplugin-nonfree23:08
ubottupepperflashplugin-nonfree (source: pepperflashplugin-nonfree): Pepper Flash Player - browser plugin. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.3ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 9 kB, installed size 65 kB (Only available for i386; amd64)23:08
mexi_d3imvladimir: OK, it might be  in repo23:08
OerHeksno need for funny ppa's23:08
mexi_d3Still doesn't do pdf forms though23:08
OerHeksmexi_d3, there are plenty plugins for that, and what is wrong with evince?23:09
mexi_d3OerHeks: Can it fill out a pdf form?23:09
=== CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away
Viking667in addition, when I start skype manually using "padsp skype" I get this:  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pulseaudio/libpulsedsp.so cannot be preloaded, wrong elf class (ELFCLASS64)23:10
daftykinsViking667: i'm afraid i find it unlikely anyone would provide support for Skype in here due to being third party :(23:10
Viking667even Microsoft's not providing skype help for 64-bit platforms, except to make sure that 32-bit libraries are installed.23:11
Viking667and that's where I seem to have hit a snag.23:11
imvladimireven acrobat doesn’t edit PDF well23:11
ChibaPetViking667: that error is talking about a 64-bit library - I think you might be barking up the wrong tree there23:11
imvladimircan’t somebody like batch every PDF on the web to PS so we can finally kill it?23:12
Viking667I'm on a 64-bit install, that's partly why. I don't knwo why pulseaudio isn't trying to load the 32-bit variant instead...23:12
ChibaPetViking667: I don't have it installed at present, but when you run it, do you see Pulse as an available option in audio sources?23:12
Viking667nope.23:12
Viking667... though I do on my 32-bit install, but the wife doesn't have that.23:12
reagahelp, i want to install wine23:12
reagabut it wont work23:12
Viking667define "won't work"23:13
reagawhen i try it says i have broken packages :(23:13
Viking667outside my realm of expertise.23:13
ChibaPetViking667: I'll try to get it running on my laptop once I've figured out how to get my partitioning like I want it.23:13
Viking667..... I wish I knew how to fix that.23:13
Viking667right. I'll stick around in here then.23:13
mrspankois anyone willing to help me with a USB boot problem?23:13
reagait says "the following packages have unmet dependencies. wine: depends: wine1.4 but it is not going to be installed. e: unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages"23:13
reagathats after i typed sudo apt-get install wine23:14
ChibaPetreaga: apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade - both after you remove non-Ubuntu repos from your sources.list23:14
lamrzkostkon, I need the IP address of my connection, I couldnt find it in logs..23:15
lamrzin syslog, I mean23:15
ChibaPetHeh, so the server media gives me the standard Debian installer.23:15
ChibaPetOr something close anyway.23:16
mrspankoUsing YUMI I have made a bootable USB with xubuntu iso yet no computer in my house will recognzie it as bootable HELP23:16
imvladimirhow did you try to boot it?23:17
mrspankoinsert, boot order "removable"23:17
mrspankoBIOS says "no bootable device detected23:17
imvladimirtry a different port maybe23:18
imvladimirpreferably one on the back if it’s a desktop23:18
mrspankoI did that, also tried several differant computers (all ubuntu) and a diff USB stick23:18
mexi_d3OerHeks: In chrome i can type into these boxes and submit the form online. I can't in firefox with flash. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Samples/interactiveform_enabled.pdf23:18
imvladimirnot every computer supports USB booting23:19
mrspankoI installed Ubuntu on this machine via USB stick23:19
imvladimirmexi_d3: doesn’t evince do that?23:19
mexi_d3imvladimir: online?23:20
imvladimirwhy online?23:20
mexi_d3OerHeks: s/flash/pdf23:20
mexi_d3imvladimir: Because some websites requires it? :-)23:20
imvladimirnever seen that23:20
imvladimirbut there’s tons of plugins for PDF23:20
daftykinsmrspanko: was the flash drive formatted as FAT32 prior to running YUMI?23:21
capellamy touchpad stopped working today after a reboot ... but it works when booting into Win ... everything looks good but: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/538768123:21
capellaI'm wondering if I upgrade from 12.04 to like 12.10 it might automagically correct ... or maybe (sighs) a whole new install23:21
mrspankodaftykins yes23:21
capellakinda drastic for a touchpad23:21
mrspankoI have tried FAT, FAT32 and ext4... same results23:22
daftykinsmrspanko: and you're sure this drive doesn't emulate a hard disk?23:22
mrspankoThis machine was an XP PC and I used YUMI and this USB disk to instal Ubuntu, now it does not work23:23
OerHeksmexi_d3, standard documentviewer can edit that pdf fine, just saying there are more choices than chrome. even if you fill out that form, it needs to be send anyway23:23
lamrzI find SSIDs but, they dont tell me about the IP address..23:23
daftykinsmrspanko: used an ubuntu system to 'dd' the image directly onto the root device rather than use Windows utilities?23:23
mexi_d3mexi_d3: Chrome can fill it out online, on the website. So you don't have to download it and email it. Some websites require you to fill them out online.23:23
lamrzthey only show the name of the network23:23
mrspankoI have not done that. How is it doen?23:23
mrspankodone23:23
mexi_d3OerHeks: Apologies for double post but it appears I can't get names right today. How do you fill that form out ONLINE with evince?23:24
OerHeksmexi_d3, there is no such thing, filling in online pdf23:24
ChibaPetAnd now I worry, as the installer formats bits of my disk.23:24
mexi_d3OerHeks: You've just seen it.23:25
ChibaPetFunny that the server image has no issue at all doing LVM-on-LUKS, but the desktop image has no such concept.23:25
daftykinsmrspanko: plug it in, fully format the drive as FAT32... then open a terminal in the folder where your ISO is, identify the device name of the flash drive (e.g. /dev/sdx) and run "sudo dd if=/path/to/file.iso of=/dev/sdx"23:25
mrspankoOk thank you will do that right now23:25
daftykinsmrspanko: but yeah, a BIOS only referring to 'removable devices' is a little doubtful in my mind. does this system, or any, have a keypress to bring up a one-time boot menu?23:26
mrspankoyes it does...23:26
mrspankoBios is also set to boot from "removable" first, and in the past this has worked23:27
PatrickDickeyWhat would cause my Nvidia GT 610 to lock the entire computer up at the Xubuntu splash screen, when using the nvidia proprietary drivers?23:27
willyg_coslamrz: try running "ifconfig" from a command line23:28
daftykinsPatrickDickey: is that a desktop discrete PCI-Express card?23:28
PatrickDickeyIt's a desktop PCI card (not PCI-Express)23:29
daftykinsi didn't think they made standard PCI of that O_O23:30
PatrickDickeyYeah, I was shocked too.23:30
daftykinsPatrickDickey: can you get to a TTY to pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?23:30
keevitajahi, is there a hexchat indicator for the panel?23:30
__llort__If i execute a command in terminal and then the program asks for a user input, is there any way to put that input as part of the initial command so that the information is automatically entered ?23:31
PatrickDickeydaftykins no I can't. It's completely locked up (crashed, dead in the water, etc). I can boot to a failsafe mode, and copy it from there though.23:32
daftykins__llort__: which command? perhaps if you read the man page or documentation on it, it will explain how23:32
daftykinsPatrickDickey: yeah whichever way works23:32
mojtabaI am running ubuntu 14.04 LTS on Dell Studio 1555; the problem is that most of the time when I turn on my laptop the wireless is disabled and cannot be enabled until I suspend the laptop and login again. Does anybody know what is the problem and how can I solve this issue?23:34
MichaelOxHi guys23:35
TeraJLJordan_U: is there any way to fix it? i've tried to run "check" with gparted but it crashes23:35
MichaelOxI have just installed viber on ubuntu23:35
MichaelOxbut it shows a very annoying icon at the upper left23:35
MichaelOxdoes anyone know how to remove that:?23:35
Viking667MichaelOx: is this on a tablet?23:36
Viking667... or have they got a desktop applet now too?23:36
MichaelOxno, I have installed in on VMware at my laptop23:36
MichaelOxyes, it is a linux client23:37
MichaelOxhttp://www.viber.com/products/linux/23:37
daftykinsso it's not in the official repos?23:37
daftykinsyeah just a deb download23:38
ChibaPetWell, that's no fun. Ubuntu blew up my MacOS rescue image, but didn't install itself in such a way as to be an option at boot time. Sigh.23:38
daftykinscan't really support anything third party in here i'm afraid23:38
__llort__daftykins, sort of a bad example but lets say i  want the password entered automatically when i connect via SSH23:38
schnoodlesHello I am currently using ubuntu as my every day operating system but I also have a couple other partitions with linux on it. Just wondering what is the best way to clear those and if it will not effect grub or what not. I was thinking about just using gparted?23:38
daftykins__llort__: hehe, bad because i'd suggest using key auth instead?23:39
MichaelOxIt's a program very commonly used... I just want to see if somebody else had the same problem and how he/she solved it23:39
__llort__daftykins, i don't really care about security in this case it's just a small experiment then im disabling the server23:39
Viking667it can't be "very commonly used" .... this is actually the first time I've even heard of viber.23:40
PatrickDickeydaftykins http://paste.ubuntu.com/7626043/ Earlier I was getting an error about not finding the module in the kernel.23:40
daftykins__llort__: sorry, i tend to have no sympathy for laziness :> no ideas come to mind for SSH beyond key auth as mentioned23:40
PatrickDickeyMichaelOx what does it do?23:40
__llort__daftykins, to be honest the service i'm using doesn't even allow it, only passwords it seems23:41
Viking667it's another  messaging and calling app23:41
MichaelOx@Viking667. It is. It has over 200.000.000 users only on android...23:42
MichaelOxit's a messaging app23:42
MichaelOxlike whatsup23:42
Viking667yeah, I found out THAT much...23:42
MichaelOx*whatsapp23:42
daftykinsPatrickDickey: you're aware you have read-only in your kernel boot options?23:43
Viking667can I view the source code?23:43
Viking667daftykins: read-only's been standard since I was running kernel 1.0.923:43
PatrickDickeyCould that just be because it's booting in recovery mode? I can check my grub configuration, if necessary.23:43
daftykinsPatrickDickey: oh yes, heh - my bad. so lines 116-118 are pretty damning23:44
lamrzwillyg_cos, I am not looking to find my current IP, but one from about 10 days ago23:44
PatrickDickeyOk, so how do I fix that? As far as I know, it built the modules fine. I've blacklisted the nouveau drivers (or at least I did earlier, I thought).23:45
daftykinsdid you install from a manual download or the correct package?23:45
PatrickDickeyThis time from a manual download, but it happens with the repository packages also.23:45
PatrickDickeyThe nouveau driver works sort of. I tried watching a DVD, and it was choppy. Like watching through a strobe light type of choppy.23:46
daftykinsPatrickDickey: what cable type is your display connected to this PCI card via?23:47
Viking667VGA-15, or DVI? (Or perhaps even HDMI?)23:47
Viking667that's for Patrick.23:48
* capella wah ... I want my touchpad back23:48
ChibaPetI want my laptop back. :) Oh well, Mac Internet Recovery only has 29 more minutes to load.23:49
PatrickDickeydaftykins and Viking667 it's a DVI cable to a HDMI port on the tv. It doesn't work if I use VGA either.23:49
Viking667And you've obviously reseated both ends of the cable securely?23:50
Viking667... reseated the card in its slot securely?23:50
daftykinsPatrickDickey: well, the kernel module isn't there regardless... how many kernel versions are in /boot ?23:50
PatrickDickeyAlso, I checked in /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/331.79/3.13.0-29-generic/ and there are modules in there.23:50
capellaoh heh - yah thats worse ... I rebooted and the touchpad stopped working ... booting to Win it functions though23:50
PatrickDickeyYep, I've done all of that.23:50
lamrzsorry for asking again, is there a way to extract the IP address of an earlier network connection, i.e. from the logs on my computer?23:51
Viking667patrickdickey: so, does the machine lock up altogether once it hits display-time? do you get any text messages scrolling up the screen from boot time?23:51
MichaelOxViking667 and PatrickDickey as I can not ask at the ubuntu channel at IRC, who else might be able to help me with my problem?23:52
PatrickDickeyThe only thing that shows up is something about via-ircc not being able to reserve an IRQ setting. Then I get the Xubuntu splash screen, and that's all she wrote. Either it locks up there, or goes to a black screen with a flashing cursor.23:52
Viking667MichaelOx: you've checked the FAQ?23:52
daftykinsPatrickDickey: the Xorg log definitely says to check the kernel log23:53
Viking667Can you go Ctl-Alt-F1   and log in on a text login?23:53
PatrickDickeydaftykins that would be /var/log/kern.log right?23:53
daftykinsPatrickDickey: probably :D23:53
PatrickDickeyViking667 when it locks up, no. The only way I can do anything is from the recovery mode.23:53
* Viking667 scratches head.23:54
Viking667okay. Any other video cards in the system? i.e. any on the motherboard?23:54
Viking667PatrickDickey: ... or just the single PCI video card?23:54
PatrickDickeyThere's a built-in one also.23:55
PatrickDickeyBut, I have it set to check the PCI slot first in BIOS.23:55
daftykinswhat kind? is it disabled via BIOS?23:55
Viking667I was about to ask that.23:55
* daftykins climbs out of Viking667's head23:55
PatrickDickeySavage S3 (it's an older computer)23:55
Viking667wow. That IS old.23:55
Viking667I don't even think that qualifies as PCI, that's more likely to be AGP.23:56
PatrickDickeyThis happened on another computer that didn't have a built-in card either.23:56
Viking667hm.23:56
=== lakupiippu_ is now known as lakupiippu
PatrickDickeyYeah, the Savage is AGP.23:56
Viking667how come you're not going with the Savage?23:56
PatrickDickeyAlso, all that's in the kern.log (at least from running tail) is a bunch of apparmor entries.23:56
PatrickDickeyI tried it, and the colors were screwed up. Like unreadable. Also the only reason I'm trying it on this computer is for airflow. The other computer is pretty much sealed up (Dell Dimension).23:57
lamrzif I reinstalled my system, would the IP address appear as different from the one in the last system, for the same device and same wi-fi connection?23:58
mexi_d3PCI was the thing we had before AGP. Modern one is PCIE.23:58
mexi_d3ISA > PCI > AGP > PCIE23:58
ChibaPetlamrz: It could, yes.23:58
lamrzChibaPet, so it is not so for sure?23:58
daftykinsPatrickDickey: honestly, i wouldn't be surprised if there's some quirk with PCI cards in this day and age23:58
Viking667Well, I can't help any further, sorry about that.23:59
ChibaPetlamrz: It depends on how long the dhcp server saves the lease, and whether or not someone else has taken it since you were gone. Chances are you'll have the same address, but it's not guaranteed and you shouldn't depend on it.23:59
Viking667MichaelOx: is your only complaint the size of the app's icon?23:59
