| Neoromantique | Hi guys, I've got an issue with powerline font rendering | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| Neoromantique | https://www.linux.org.ru/gallery/10647566.jpg | 00:01 |
| LostNva | m1chael: do you wake up from suspend I think on mine its the power button | 00:02 |
| Beldar | knob, What ubuntu release? | 00:02 |
| LostNva | how i mean | 00:02 |
| knob | Beldar, 14.04 | 00:03 |
| knob | I saw this Beldar http://www.howtogeek.com/187999/how-to-enable-local-menus-in-ubuntu-14.04/, yet it's missing from my system. | 00:03 |
| Beldar | knob, Did you run the install sudo apt-get install dconf-editor | 00:03 |
| knob | I don't have the little Appearance --> Behavior --> Show the menus for a window settings | 00:03 |
| knob | Beldar, that's another one... I did it via the graphical Ubuntu software installing thingy. I do have dconf-editor now | 00:03 |
| knob | YET | 00:03 |
| knob | Now I don't have the sub-menu where I'm supposed to whitelist applications | 00:04 |
| Pici | Neoromantique: I had an issue with the tmux powerline in that there was a extra space being inserted between the and the next element, you may want to check the vim config and/or the bug reports on the github page. Alternatively, check out how it displays via another terminal emulator or even from a tty to verify if it is indeed a font issue, or one with the vim config. | 00:04 |
| knob | Beldar, I am running 12.04 LTS... sorry | 00:04 |
| Beldar | knob, sub menu means nothing to me, you will have to be exact here. | 00:04 |
| Pici | Neoromantique: I assume the was the issue you were referring to. | 00:05 |
| knob | Beldar, well, using dconf-editor, in this link, it says to go to com > canonical > unity-gtk-module > blacklist: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/11/unity-global-menu-can-now-be-disabled.html | 00:05 |
| knob | Yet I don't have com > canonical > unity-gtk-module > blacklist: | 00:05 |
| Beldar | knob, Ah, 12.04 is gconf and this is 14.04 http://www.webupd8.org/2013/11/unity-global-menu-can-now-be-disabled.html | 00:05 |
| knob | Beldar, can I upgrade? | 00:05 |
| Beldar | knob, To? | 00:06 |
| knob | 14.04 | 00:06 |
| knob | Beldar, brb... I am upgrading to 14.04 | 00:07 |
| Beldar | knob, Sure, the official upgrade will be within a week or so, backup up 12.04 before doing so. You might just consider another desktop really these tweaks can be problematic if you don't know exactly what you're doing and how to fix it once done or reverse it. | 00:07 |
| knob | Beldar, thanks! Although I enjoy breaking these things. =) | 00:08 |
| Beldar | knob, Sure bit not everyone here has the patience to help in these matters so be sure you document changes....etc, know hjow to fix it yourself. | 00:09 |
| Beldar | but* | 00:09 |
| knob | Beldar, Yes. I try my best with my notes and google. And once that's expired, then I come in here. | 00:09 |
| knob | Lets see how it goeS! :D | 00:09 |
| knob | brb in a while. Thanks! | 00:10 |
| ey3 | Oh my | 00:11 |
| ey3 | It looks like I just ruined grub with my new installation | 00:11 |
| ey3 | Damn it, it only got worse now | 00:11 |
| ey3 | W | 00:14 |
| ey3 | Well, at least I can still boot into Live CD | 00:14 |
| ybit3 | anyone here have the xps 13? | 00:14 |
| Beldar | !bootinfo | ey3 | 00:15 |
| ubottu | ey3: Boot info script is a useful script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 00:15 |

| kubuntard | Can i upgrade from 12.04.4 lts to 14.04 and keep the same kernel ? | 00:20 |
| ey3 | OK, here it is, if anyone can take a look: paste.ubuntu.com/7782662/ | 00:21 |
| LostNva | michaelnkoth: do you mean install windows crap into ubuntu? | 00:23 |
| avalarion | Updating my Ubuntu went totally wrong.... I need help, I am not able to install things, i get huge problems... 1.paste: http://pastebin.com/RzqA0AeC 2. paste: http://pastebin.com/3jtWLzjS | 00:23 |
| michaelnkoth | yeah | 00:23 |
| LostNva | use wine, will install and run some things | 00:23 |
| michaelnkoth | what is the command for wine | 00:24 |
| LostNva | ubuntu comes with it as far as i know, right click on the file, click run with wine | 00:24 |
| michaelnkoth | so just download any windows file online and click run with wine | 00:25 |
| LostNva | some will work some wont, right click on the windows exe, click run with wine | 00:26 |
| Neroon | michaelnkoth: check wine compatibility here: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 00:27 |
| Avanesov | Can anyone tell me offhand which Ubuntu installers will install on a root btrfs? I know the full default desktop is supposed to, but im trying to get a minimum install and minimum install disc doesnt seem to have that option. | 00:28 |
| avalarion | okay, my problem got solved =). Correct order of remote sources and everything worked well. Thank and have a good night! | 00:29 |
| Beldar | ey3, You have grub in your sda1 windows boot partition hold on trying to find the web page of the fix. | 00:34 |
| ey3 | Beldar: The person who installed grub and OSes for me said that Windows on sda1 is broken, so I've always booted into the one on sda2. Anyway, what can I do about it? | 00:35 |
| Beldar | ey3, read what is posted, hold on trying to find the web page of the fix. | 00:36 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Oh, right. I didn't get it at first, sorry. | 00:37 |
| LostNva | i have a dumb question, can anyone tell me where the favorites are in xchat> | 00:39 |
| LostNva | i save favorites and cant find where they are | 00:40 |
| Beldar | ey3, So tell me exactly what is happening can you boot ubuntu or windows as of now? | 00:41 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Nope. Grub doesn't open the OS list, it says something about file not being found instead and leaves me with a "grub rescue" command prompt. | 00:43 |
| ey3 | Beldar: It functioned properly, until I reinstalled Ubuntu on sda5 | 00:43 |
| goit790 | http://2014-the-best-hd-movies-adults-only.blogspot.com/2014/07/2014-best-hd-movies-adults-only.html | 00:43 |
| Beldar | ey3, You are in the ubuntu live environment now? | 00:45 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Yes | 00:45 |
| rubytor | ey3: have you tried with boot repair?? | 00:46 |
| Beldar | ey3, Open gparted and move the boot flag from sda1 to sda2 that will bypass the grub in the windows boot, than we will use the bootrepiar to run the repair. | 00:46 |
| jcstarken | question about permissions 14.04 :Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) | 00:47 |
| jcstarken | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 00:47 |
| SchrodingersScat | jcstarken: that normally means you are doing something else with dpkg elsewhere, ie, apt, aptitude, synaptic, dpkg itself, etc. | 00:48 |
| SchrodingersScat | jcstarken: wait, or you didn't sudo | 00:48 |
| Avanesov | Im guessing he diddnt use sudo | 00:48 |
| jcstarken | SchrodingersScat: sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 00:49 |
| jcstarken | SchrodingersScat: should be? sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:49 |
| Avanesov | I believe so. | 00:49 |
| SchrodingersScat | jcstarken: yes | 00:49 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Ok, moved the boot flag to sda2, that is the Live CD | 00:50 |
| jcstarken | SchrodingersScat: thank you | 00:50 |
| Beldar | ey3, Now use this app the basic repair on the live cd https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 00:52 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Right, it worked! Many thanks. | 01:00 |
| rickylm | eeee: I'm back, I have another question for you if youre available. I searched the web and couldnt find the answer. | 01:00 |
| rickylm | Or anybody else that can offer assistance at this time. | 01:00 |
| rickylm | error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 01:03 |
| rickylm | but locate tells me '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4' | 01:03 |
| krono | hello | 01:04 |
| krono | I'm brand new here | 01:04 |
| krono | don't want to disturb!! | 01:05 |
| rickylm | Ive tried creating a symlink | 01:05 |
| trism | rickylm: if you are using a 32bit app you might need libcurl3:i386 instead | 01:05 |
| rickylm | I will install that and give it a shot. | 01:06 |
| rickylm | trism: When I create a symlink it says some shit about ELF64, could the program im using be calling for a 32bit instead or? | 01:07 |
| tase | I have a service that refuses to start via 'service *name* start' but '/etc/init.d/*name* start' works, does the service utility use an other file than the one in /etc/init.d ? | 01:07 |
| trism | rickylm: try running: file ./executablename; assuming you are running it from the directory it is in, it should tell you (ELF 32-bit or ELF 64-bit) | 01:08 |
| trism | rickylm: if it is 32-bit then the symlink for a 64-bit lib won't help | 01:09 |
| === tase_ is now known as tase | ||
| rickylm | Ok, is there anyway I can specify it to install libcurl4 x86 instead of 64? | 01:10 |
| ryu13212 | i don't know | 01:10 |
| rickylm | trism: Well what you told me worked. Thanks brother. | 01:11 |
| Super | I am used to Debian but I am living hell because I don't understand Upstart! I don't know where to find where software is intialized and where is the PID file. | 01:11 |
| Super | *Living hell in Ubuntu. | 01:11 |
| ryu13212 | super:wrong channel | 01:11 |
| Super | I have an ubuntu issue. | 01:11 |
| Super | Ubuntu uses Upstart. | 01:11 |
| rickylm | I dont understand how it took libcurl3 it being dependent on 4, but it worked. Thanks | 01:11 |
| Beldar | ey3, Cool, so sda1 just needs you to go in from ubuntu and remove all grub references, and the boot flag put back if you want, your choice, what ever you do do not remove sda1. | 01:13 |
| Super | ryu13212, what is the correct channel? I just want to find out the PID of a program upstart is initiliazing. I'm lost with upstart. I am used to: /etc/init.d/program-name start|stop|restart | 01:14 |
| Super | * initializing | 01:14 |
| basketball | I have two moniters. Can i have 2 seperate workspaces (one for each monitor) | 01:14 |
| ryu13212 | um.... | 01:14 |
| ey3 | Beldar: So everything should be fine with both Ubuntu and Windows on sda2 now as long as I don't mess up something with sda1 I guess? | 01:16 |
| bootylicious | can someone tell me if the skype download ubuntu 12.04 (multiarch) is the right one? | 01:17 |

| simpleuser | Hi there. My brightness control works but is not precise. I have 4 steps and I’d like to have more. How could I do that? | 01:22 |
| Beldar | ey3, Exactly. | 01:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | bootylicious: No one knows what? | 01:24 |
| ey3 | Beldar: Fair enough. This even turned out better than I expected, my old Linux installation had numerous issues and this fresh one is just lovely. Thanks anyway, I owe you one. | 01:24 |
| SonikkuAmerica | simpleuser: If it's not 12.04 it's not precise :) Seriously though, you could set it to full brightness and work your way down... | 01:24 |
| bootylicious | can someone tell me if the skype download ubuntu 12.04 (multiarch) is the right one? | 01:25 |

| bootylicious | http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/ | 01:26 |
| bootylicious | theres no 14.04 choice, so im guessing its either the dynamic one at the bottom, or the one i mentioned above | 01:26 |
| bootylicious | the 2014 multiarch | 01:26 |
| simpleuser | SonikkuAmerica: Nope. XFCE. | 01:26 |
| bootylicious | ... the 12.04 | 01:26 |
| simpleuser | SonikkuAmerica: but what does it have to do with unity? | 01:26 |
| SonikkuAmerica | simpleuser: Well.. Both use GNOME's volume control code in their indicators... | 01:27 |
| bootylicious | out of all the people in this chat nobody can tell me the right option to use | 01:28 |
| simpleuser | SonikkuAmerica: My brightness control (fn keys) is working. It’s just that the change is too violent. | 01:28 |
| simpleuser | It’s like it was doing two steps rather than one, each time. | 01:30 |
| akkik | Good Morning Guys | 01:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | simpleuser: Yeah, the Fn keybindings attach to GNOME'S code for setting brightness... Lemme look it up for you | 01:33 |

| SchrodingersScat | there's a problem that seems to be localized to my laptop. closing case puts it into standby as expected, but on resume and after login the screen is black. anything I can look at, before deciding it's a security feature somehow? | 01:57 |

| Glycan | Hello. Are questions about using the ssh program on ubuntu within the scope of this channel? | 02:08 |
| SchrodingersScat | Glycan: worth a shot, ask. | 02:08 |
| Glycan | (I ask because I was previously told off for asking about network interfaces) | 02:09 |
| shiver | Do it. | 02:10 |
| Glycan | So I ssh -v <addr>, get up to debug2: shell request accepted on channel 0, get the entry message, the prompt, (I think) switch windows, and come back to debug2: client_check_window_change: changed\ndebug2: channel 0: request window-change confirm 0, and the window not accepting any input at all, not even C-c | 02:10 |
| hdon | hi all :) using gnome-terminal, gcc error quotes look like this: http://codebad.com/~hdon/temp.png | 02:13 |
| SchrodingersScat | function9: still don't see anything that suggests that the screen should be black instead of the desktop | 02:13 |
| hdon | so left quote ends up looking like o with a circumflex, and the right quote looks like an o with a tilde accent | 02:13 |
| hdon | it's really annoying. anyone have any idea what's wrong? | 02:13 |
| hdon | i don't have this problem with xterm | 02:14 |
| Glycan | This is using SSH over USB1.1 with the uhci_hcd module disabled on mostly out-of-the-box bash in a screen session on lubuntu 12.04.4 with linux 3.2.0-65-generic | 02:15 |

| derek-g | Ghjnut, noone does that | 02:26 |
| Ghjnut | I threw a hard drive into a new computer and it's not picking up the netwrok | 02:27 |
| Glycan | jay__: open a terminal, type 'python' | 02:27 |
| Beldar | derek-g, The Tor-Browser is a 3rd party setup, you can use tools from the repos to tor up your browsers, easier to just use the one from the tor website. | 02:27 |
| Ghjnut | It's 12.10 server. I'll probably upgrade it but I'm looking to grab an internet connection first so i can back things up | 02:28 |
| derek-g | Beldar, by same logic firefox and chromium are "third party setups" - no? | 02:28 |
| jay__ | thanks Glycan | 02:29 |
| Beldar | derek-g, Honestly if you don't know how to set it up from the repos say so rather than making banal answers trying to seem intelligent. ;) | 02:29 |
| advx_ | Hello All, Good Morning.... its raining after a long wait... | 02:29 |
| derek-g | Beldar, I know - I can easily add ppa via "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/tor-browser" | 02:30 |
| advx_ | its ~15 days late | 02:30 |
| derek-g | Beldar, it's just seems weird that such an important pice of software is left out from easy install/update routine... | 02:30 |
| Beldar | !tor | 02:31 |
| ubottu | Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 02:31 |
| Beldar | derek-g, Everything in the ubuntu repos was a 3rd party till it is in the repos technically, 3rd party in this context means not in the repos. | 02:33 |
| derek-g | Beldar, so because of some "past issues with Ubuntu's" - they dont include it anymore by default... sounds sketchy at best... Perhaps canonical was pressured by nsa or something? | 02:35 |
| Beldar | derek-g, I have never seen the "tor-browser in the repos, only the tools to make your browsers run on the tor network, and assuming like that is a waste of time. | 02:36 |
| === guilherme is now known as Guest30205 | ||

| piovstein | derek-g:https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en | 02:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | i keep complaning about them, but i have no solution | 02:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | memory test = fine, grub is default again | 02:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | what on earth, why does random applications like leafpad and thunderbird and firefox | 02:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | completely freeze the laptop without use of any keys | 02:42 |
| Psil0Cybin | nothing works cannot even access TTY | 02:42 |
| piovstein | I had/have the same issue, Psil0Cybin | 02:43 |
| Psil0Cybin | piovstein, what did you do to solve this...its a new laptop | 02:43 |
| Psil0Cybin | i am so ocnfused | 02:43 |
| Psil0Cybin | i am also using ubuntu 12.04.4 | 02:43 |
| derek-g | piovstein, thanks. imho ppa is better - as I can update all programs at once when I run 'apt-get update'. | 02:43 |
| piovstein | I ran memtest and found no errors so I assumed it was a graphics driver thing. I've gone 24hrs w/o one so I'm hoping that was it | 02:44 |
| piovstein | and that's fair derek-g | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | piovstein, i cannot do anything | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | piovstein, i ran a memory test too | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | its fine | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | that does not help, its a brand new laptop | 02:44 |
| Psil0Cybin | and i uipgrade the kernels and nothing fixes the issue | 02:45 |
| piovstein | does it freeze the instant you boot up? | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | it actually makes the laptop uselesson top if we risk loosing data | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | nope | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | after 20 - 30 minutes of use | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | 15 sometime | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | sometimes 60 minutes | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | no particular reason | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | complete freeze | 02:45 |
| Psil0Cybin | even if idle sometimes | 02:45 |
| piovstein | so you should make sure the graphics drivers are correctly installed and check for any missing drivers | 02:45 |
| piovstein | but honestly, that's the best i have | 02:46 |
| advx_ | bye ppl have a great day | 02:50 |
| Psil0Cybin | piovstein, dang it dang it dang it >< | 02:52 |
| Psil0Cybin | i love ubuntu i love linux but this is madness... | 02:52 |
| piovstein | froze? | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | no not yet, but i have a feeling | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | the second i do something important | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | ugh she gunna blow | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | when are we upgrading to 14.04? | 02:53 |
| piovstein | wait | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | someone was suggesting to use a completely newer version | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | but i have a feeling that might cause even more problems | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | sigh | 02:53 |
| piovstein | youre not running 14.04? | 02:53 |
| Psil0Cybin | 12.04.4 | 02:53 |

| zh1 | if you feel lucky | 05:09 |
| piovstein | ubuntu froze on me >.< grgrgrgrg I don't get it either. I thought i fixed the issue. | 05:09 |
| zh1 | reboot | 05:10 |
| zh1 | if it freezes just wait and dont keypress | 05:11 |
| piovstein | I have the same issue as Psil0Cybin | 05:11 |
| piovstein | how long should I wait, zh1 | 05:11 |
| zh1 | till it responds | 05:11 |
| piovstein | so min, hours? | 05:11 |
| zh1 | 5m máx | 05:11 |
| piovstein | okay. and if it's above that? | 05:12 |
| piovstein | just cold reboot? | 05:12 |
| zh1 | then u have a problem | 05:12 |
| zh1 | yep | 05:12 |
| piovstein | have you had anything like this happen before? | 05:12 |
| zh1 | never | 05:12 |
| zh1 | but i dont use ubuntu | 05:13 |
| piovstein | well, that might explain why you haven't had an issue with ubuntu :p | 05:13 |

| zh1 | check the logs | 05:15 |

| piovstein | memtest came back good. I've never had an issue with temp or power before (it's a gaming laptop). | 05:16 |
| piovstein | swap size? | 05:16 |
| meganerd | piovstein: you know that laptops by definition have heat and power issues. How have you been measuring the temp? | 05:17 |
| piovstein | I haven't been quantitatively. I'm comparing it to windows 8 and gaming. This laptop has never had temp issues that cause it to freeze before. | 05:18 |

| zh1 | piovstein, that doesnt mean nothing, thermal paste can dry | 05:19 |
| zh1 | all logs, specially what was running | 05:20 |
| zh1 | to freeze | 05:20 |
| meganerd | piovstein: freezing is not a useful diagnostic, just like under windows. What were you doing, what apps running, cpuload, look through /var/log/syslog for errors or warnings | 05:21 |
| zh1 | gnome-system-log | 05:21 |
| zh1 | tail -f /var/log/syslog | 05:21 |
| zh1 | piovstein, check setting you may have of the hardware too, like gpu, bios etc | 05:22 |
| zh1 | and use lm sensors to detect temps | 05:22 |
| piovstein | what settings would I be checking? | 05:22 |
| zh1 | after a poweroff and on run this apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 05:23 |
| zh1 | apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean && apt-get purge && apt-get check | 05:23 |
| piovstein | what will those do? | 05:23 |
| zh1 | i dont know your hardware specs | 05:24 |
| zh1 | so all setting that for example could lock graphical card gpu | 05:24 |
| zh1 | but as i said, i dont know your hardware so it has to be those according to parts | 05:24 |
| zh1 | or a bios mem shortage on something | 05:25 |
| zh1 | how much you have? and pc mem? | 05:25 |
| zh1 | swap | 05:25 |

| zh1 | cat dmesg | less | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 05:31 |

| zh1 | can u use disk utility and check if it has bad sectors too | 05:31 |
| piovstein | do you want to me to run another command, or check for bad sectors? | 05:32 |
| meganerd | piovstein: at a guess I would look at suspend/hibernate and nvidia | 05:32 |
| zh1 | piovstein, one thing caused freeze so to find out its a question of eliminating possibilities | 05:32 |
| piovstein | meganerd, what do you mean? | 05:33 |
| zh1 | if A, B, C and D are ok then F e is the cause | 05:33 |
| meganerd | piovstein: turn off hibernate/suspend, are you using the nvidia drivers or the open source nouveau ones? | 05:33 |
| zh1 | yep check power options | 05:33 |
| zh1 | set to spend power :) | 05:33 |

| === HoloIRCUser is now known as ___orz___ | ||
| piovstein | meganerd, turn off hibernate/suspend? like after given interval you mean? and I'm using nvidia drivers iirc, but I think they clashed with WINE. i tried to get around that though | 05:34 |
| zh1 | wine drivers? | 05:35 |
| zh1 | hmmm | 05:35 |
| piovstein | installing wine conflicted with nvidia drivers | 05:35 |
| zh1 | are u on the ubuntu pc now? | 05:35 |
| piovstein | yes | 05:35 |
| zh1 | can you do a power off and on? | 05:35 |
| meganerd | piovstein: I mean turn off hibernate/suspend especially if you are using the nvidia drivers. | 05:35 |
| zh1 | to start from scratch | 05:36 |
| piovstein | zh1, and then what? because it'll quit IRC, obviously. | 05:36 |

| ESphynx | hey guys, apt-get is being stubborn because it says there are dependencies erorrs, but I want to install unrelated packages... is there a way to make it forget about unmet dependencies and go ahead? | 05:36 |
| piovstein | meganerd, yes. and do you mean hib/suspend after a given time period, or remove the options altogether? | 05:36 |
| zh1 | apt-get -f install | 05:36 |
| ESphynx | zh1: that will remove the packages, I don't want to remove them, they work. | 05:37 |
| zh1 | remove suspends | 05:37 |
| ESphynx | remove suspends? | 05:37 |
| meganerd | piovstein: I turn them off all together, along with suspend when the lid closes (I have always hated that option, even under windows) | 05:37 |
| ESphynx | ah | 05:37 |
| ESphynx | zh1: I had to hack it because it's Precise and dpkg isn't being updated | 05:37 |
| piovstein | where are they? because I just see the brightness and lock screen info | 05:37 |
| zh1 | -f = fix | 05:37 |
| ESphynx | zh1: but it fixes by removing. | 05:38 |

| meganerd | piovstein: I am not sure, at the moment I am on my NUC which is running KDE | 05:38 |
| ESphynx | Yeah I've read that, it does not have a solution. | 05:38 |
| ESphynx | It says I can't do that. but I want to do that. | 05:39 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: undo the changes that you made | 05:39 |
| child | hello | 05:39 |
| piovstein | meganerd: should I change the "when lib is closed" option? | 05:39 |
| ESphynx | dpkg is stuck at 1.16.1.2 on Precise, but that is completely useless and I need >= 1.16.2 ... | 05:40 |
| ESphynx | had to install it from source I think and I don't want to have to do that again and risk wasting hours to get things working properly again just because apt-get is being stubborn. | 05:40 |
| zh1 | source bad choice | 05:41 |
| piovstein | zh1: do you want me to do anything? | 05:41 |
| ESphynx | zh1: I furiously strongly disagree with the whole apt-get philosophy. installing from source should be just fine. | 05:42 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: apt-get is central to your system, and you monkeyed with it. Usually this is a bad idea. | 05:42 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: I have loved apt-get since the 90s, if you want source, run gentoo or slack. | 05:42 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I want both source and binaries to play nice with each other. | 05:42 |

| meganerd | ESphynx: there are any number of tools that you can use. You can build your own packages, use checkinstall, or just be really careful and put self built stuff into /usr/local | 05:44 |
| vishnu | CISPA was recognized as a huge threat to people's privacy. We all protested against it and we took it off the senette. Now its back in a diferrent name: CIPA | 05:44 |
| ESphynx | meganerdn: seriously. why does apt-get have to become completely useless just because ONE package has unmet dependencies. | 05:44 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: don't get me started about /usr/local :P | 05:45 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: I have source and packages living side by side, I use apt-get build-dep, then checkinstall | 05:45 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: because it is doing it's job, checking for dependancies, something source installs don't give you | 05:45 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: hey, it is there for a reason. | 05:45 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I'm fine with it checking its job of checking for dependencies for the packages I'm about to intall | 05:46 |

| ESphynx | or the packages that I ask it to fix or remove. | 05:46 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: it is not like you *have* to use Debian. | 05:46 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I maintain Debian packages and it may be the least of other evils. | 05:46 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: I remember the 90s and dependency hell. apt-get/dpkg do their jobs well. | 05:46 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: It is doing its jobs relatively well. | 05:47 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: our opinions differ in this regard then. | 05:47 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: but it is being too stubborn. it should have a flag to ignore unrelated dependencies at the very least. | 05:47 |

| ESphynx | meganerd: at the moment it rather makes me want to shoot myself. | 05:48 |
| zh1 | piovstein, if its on looks like here a firmware bug too on log | 05:48 |
| piovstein | the open source drivers for nvidia, meganerd? | 05:49 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: as someone who has done this countless times I understand the frustration, even if it is self inflicted. | 05:49 |
| piovstein | zh1, what am i looking for? | 05:49 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: seriously. a small switch :P | 05:49 |
| zh1 | piovstein, how many freezes u had? | 05:50 |
| meganerd | piovstein: yes, my laptop has a quadro (useless even in windows), so I just use the iGPU. Of course lenovo in all of their wisdom physically wired the mini-dp port to the nvidia GPU, so occasionally I need to enable it. In UEFI/BIOS interface I just flip between discreet only and integrated only modes. | 05:50 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: seriously, not that easy | 05:50 |
| piovstein | zh1: 4 in the course of 24 hours | 05:50 |
| xangua | Dave77: apt-cache showpkg packagename , apt-cache help | 05:51 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: of course apt-get is open source, I am sure the current maintainers would love to see that patch :) | 05:51 |
| piovstein | meganerd: what FOSS drivers should i use for nvidia? | 05:51 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: as in he would be happy to reject it? | 05:52 |
| meganerd | piovstein: nouveau | 05:52 |
| zh1 | piovstein, was pc in intensive use at that time? | 05:52 |
| meganerd | piovstein: purge all nvidia- packages | 05:52 |
| ESphynx | I don't care if it doesn't show up in the help screen and is in the man page with 10 WARNING don't don't this, but this is Linux. I should be able to do what I want to do. | 05:52 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: and you can, you just shot yourself in the foot, just like the manual warned you. | 05:53 |
| piovstein | meganerd: purge nvidia and install nouveau? | 05:53 |
| Dave77 | ty: xan | 05:53 |
| piovstein | zh1: no more than it ever it. watching a movie and on the internets + IRC | 05:53 |
| zh1 | piovstein, do you wanna try this, you just backup and do a ubuntu fresh install | 05:54 |
| zh1 | then can install card fresh | 05:54 |
| zh1 | ubuntu is very fast to install | 05:54 |
| meganerd | piovstein: purge them all, including bumblebee and primus packages if installed. | 05:54 |
| piovstein | zh1: if the goal is to install the graphics drivers fresh, can't i purge them or remove them another way as opposed to a complete OS install? | 05:55 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: what is the exact error that you are getting anyway? As entertaining as the debate is, we are probably not going to agree. | 05:55 |
| piovstein | meganerd: should i try to reinstall primus and bumblebee? | 05:56 |
| meganerd | piovstein: "sudo aptitude purge primus bumblebee" and any package that shows up with a "sudo aptitude search nvidia |grep -w ^i" | 05:57 |
| piovstein | aptitude? the command isn't found | 05:58 |
| meganerd | piovstein: no, leave them out. You can try later if you like. If you don't need the nvidia under Linux I would just disable it altogether (without drivers or primus it should not be active, though on my laptop it was still 9 degrees C warmer until I disabled it in UEFI/BIOS) | 05:59 |
| meganerd | piovstein: apt-get then | 05:59 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: "Yep, I've heard of many people switching to Gentoo just because of this. " | 05:59 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: I haven't | 05:59 |
| ESphynx | seriously this is crazy disabling. | 05:59 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: Gentoo was a massive PITA. Only slackware was worse, and I liked slackware. | 06:00 |
| ESphynx | I still think all Linux are massive PITA. but Debian could improve if simple things like this would be addressed. | 06:00 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: seriously post the exact error. | 06:00 |
| piovstein | meganerd: what command should i do to disable Nvidia then? and wouldn't that kill any video capabilities? | 06:01 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: https://gist.github.com/jerstlouis/498cfdc15a1323121008 | 06:01 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: if it was simple it would have been done. | 06:02 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: what exactly did you do? | 06:02 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I found a hackish way to get a working dpkg version on this sytem because that old version can't do anything useful. | 06:02 |
| ESphynx | and no one cares to update Precise anymore | 06:03 |
| meganerd | piovstein: if you have optimus, then the Intel iGPU will get used and you have nothing else to do. If that is broken there is still a software only (no hardware acceleration) fallback mode that is used. | 06:03 |
| zh1 | meganerd http://paste.ubuntu.com/7783480/ piovstein | 06:03 |
| piovstein | meganerd: okay, well how do I purge them all? | 06:03 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: someone needs to learn dpkg --get-selections and dpkg --set-selections | 06:03 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: 12.04 is LTS, like debian stable they don't get new versions | 06:05 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: and I have no idea why you would try to replace dpkg. | 06:06 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: you can force an install of the previous version, under /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 06:06 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: and then undo and purge whatever thing you did. You still have not told me how you got into this situation. | 06:07 |
| meganerd | piovstein: apt-get purge <packagename> | 06:07 |
| meganerd | piovstein: sudo apt-get purge <packagename> | 06:07 |
| piovstein | meganerd: and just do that for all the nvidia ones? | 06:08 |
| meganerd | piovstein: and bumblebee and primus | 06:08 |
| meganerd | piovstein: I also had better stability with the nvidia drivers under xfce than unity or kde. | 06:08 |
| meganerd | piovstein: it you wanted to go back to them for some reason (like gaming). | 06:09 |
| piovstein | and then install nouveau? meganerd | 06:09 |
| meganerd | piovstein: if it is not already | 06:09 |
| piovstein | meganerd: and that should, hopefully, fix the issue? | 06:09 |
| meganerd | it did for me | 06:10 |
| piovstein | why would nvidia be the issue though? | 06:10 |
| meganerd | piovstein: Short answer is because they suck, maybe less than AMD, but not by much | 06:10 |
| Dave77 | can a binary made for ubuntu 10.04 work on 14.04? | 06:10 |
| meganerd | piovstein: the longer answer is more complicated and nuanced, and has to do with how drivers are integrated into the kernel, the horror that is X11, legal and licencing concerns with open source drivers, and generally not caring about 3% of the desktop market. | 06:12 |
| piovstein | meganerd: well, I'll try this once zh1 and i finish talking. hopefully it works. | 06:12 |
| Dave77 | linux needs games to increase takeup | 06:12 |
| meganerd | piovstein: the nvidia driver basically shims its way into the kernel, so some things don't play nice | 06:12 |
| piovstein | meganerd: i see. and nouv tends to be better? | 06:13 |
| piovstein | is there a way to check to see which packages i have installed by nvidia? | 06:13 |
| meganerd | piovstein: it can be maddening. You might also want to give xfce a spin. Not as pretty but seemed a little more stable on my laptop (until I figured out how to just use the iGPU or discreet only) | 06:13 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: you had my hopes up there :S | 06:14 |
| meganerd | piovstein: it is maintained by the kernel and xorg people, so yes. Though it is missing features and performs terribly for things like games. | 06:14 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: the debhelper I need to build my pacakges depends on it... | 06:14 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I need exactly this dpkg and debhelper version that I have hacked together | 06:15 |
| piovstein | meganerd: is there an efficient way to search to see which nvidia packages i have? | 06:15 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: are you trying to load newer versions of packages into 12.04? | 06:15 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: for *core* things like dpkg? | 06:15 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: no I'm just comfortable in my 12.04 setup to build my packages. | 06:15 |
| meganerd | piovstein: apt-get search nvidia | grep -w ^i | 06:16 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: yes I loaded a newer version of dpkg into it | 06:16 |
| ESphynx | ah no sorry meganerd | 06:16 |
| ESphynx | it's just debhelper that I force-updated | 06:16 |
| ESphynx | I didn't change dpkg | 06:16 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: well I can't you with getting that working. Putting the version with 12.04 back is doable | 06:16 |
| ESphynx | basically, debhelper has a requirement on a version to recent than it really neesd. | 06:17 |
| piovstein | meganerd: "invalid operation search" | 06:17 |
| ESphynx | I just want to backup my debhelper version | 06:17 |
| meganerd | piovstein: install aptitude, then "aptitude search nvidia | grep -w ^i" | 06:18 |
| meganerd | piovstein: when did Ubuntu stop shipping with aptitude? | 06:18 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: well, you have to install all of the .deb files that are dependancies. packages.ubuntu.com will tell you what those are. I would not recommend it. If you really do need those newer versions, VMs and containers are probably going to be your friend here. | 06:20 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: this is not really an apt-get Debian/Ubuntu problem, the same thing happens to RHEL/Cent/Fedora as well | 06:21 |
| ESphynx | meganerd: I just wished apt-get would have an override to forget about unrelated things. | 06:21 |
| zh1 | ESphynx, plain simple dpkg -i debfile, dependencies apt-get -f update | 06:21 |
| ESphynx | installing libasound2 wouldn't messup my dependency tree any worst tha it currently is. | 06:22 |
| ESphynx | zh1: on which package are you suggesting? | 06:22 |
| zh1 | update upgrade always friends | 06:22 |
| zh1 | i mean overall | 06:22 |
| zh1 | if you are in a source... | 06:22 |
| meganerd | ESphynx: except that they are not unrelated. This is the very definition of dependency management. | 06:23 |
| ESphynx | well I just install -f'ed, tired of this | 06:26 |

| histo | Rstevoa: after you add it sudo update-grub | 08:19 |
| stephankn | Ben64: But where is the line? eglibc, libav, libxml2... | 08:20 |
| Ben64 | stephankn: do whatever you want, but phpmyadmin is not complicated, and should never be exposed publicly anyway. you're making a mountain out of a neutron star | 08:20 |
| Rstevoa | histo: http://pastebin.com/1YJ10cGm | 08:21 |
| stephankn | Ben64: I'm not too worried about this specific case, right. But can I trust security on Ubuntu in general? I had expected to be on par with Debian. | 08:21 |
| histo | Rstevoa: double check your /boot/grub/grub.cfg and you should see int eh section for the 40-custom an entry for windows | 08:22 |
| Ben64 | stephankn: you should never trust anything 100%, you still have to take control of your own security on any distribution. bugs are normally fixed quickly | 08:22 |

If my security concept is based on a misunderstanding of Ubuntu I'm in trouble. So in general: What is the status of the Ubuntu security team? They have enough member to handle updates quickly? | 08:24 |

| Guest73371 | perfectly working | 08:25 |
| Ben64 | stephankn: yep, the heartbleed update came out very quickly, last big issue i remember | 08:25 |
| Guest73371 | ?? | 08:25 |

| Guest73371 | openstack ?? | 08:26 |
| stephankn | Ben64: So I better stay subscribed to the debian announcements then. Will need to track each announcement to see if I would be affected and if so, check that Ubuntu patches of take actions myself... I'm not too happy with that extra work involved, but if this is the Ubuntu way, then it will be. | 08:26 |

| Rstevoa | No, but I have USB drives aplenty | 08:34 |
| histo | Rstevoa: was /dev/sdb there when you installed windows? | 08:34 |
| Rstevoa | histo: It existed, yes | 08:35 |
| Rstevoa | histo: I am going to start making a win7 recovery usb | 08:36 |
| histo | Rstevoa: well, I would unplug your /dev/sda and /dev/sdb then boot to Windows install media and select the repair option to get command line and bootrec /fixboot bootrec /fixmbr then plug sda and sdb back in and reboot | 08:36 |
| histo | Rstevoa: the boot files for windows appear to have been on sdb for some reason. | 08:36 |
| Rstevoa | histo: Ok, I will try that | 08:37 |
| histo | Rstevoa: after you get the boot repaired on the windows drive os-prober called via update-grub will detect it once again, and you shouldn't need the 40-custom entry any longer | 08:38 |
| histo | Rstevoa: a quick test would be to unplug sda and sdb and try booting the machine. I bet you will receive the same bootmgr missing | 08:38 |

| Morgawr | I don't want to change the keybind or to permanently disable it or just manually disable it before and re-enabling it after, I want some way to disable it temporarily for a specific application | 09:49 |
| dragos | it shows that:Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l | 09:49 |

| edition | explains it better on the link you suggested | 09:49 |
| trijntje | Morgawr: I don't think thats possible. The best you can do is probably put in a script: disable alt; start game; enable alt | 09:50 |

| Morgawr | trijntje: yeah that's what I wanted to do, how do I do that? | 09:50 |

| cfhowlett | killer waiting for the first point release is good practice. waiting for later point releases is excessively paranoid IMHO ... | 11:13 |

| Cameraman | Hello. I'm not able to run Skype- even typing in Termina: Skype [ENTER] doesn't work. | 12:29 |

| gry | what output do you see when you try to run skype from a terminal? no output? | 12:31 |
| Cameraman | Why can't I unistall app by Software Center, when it has been installed from .deb package? | 12:31 |
| gry | because they would conflict (the command names for example); you need to uninstall the manually installed one first | 12:31 |
| Cameraman | gry: That's not practical/ | 12:33 |
| gry | why not? | 12:33 |
| Cameraman | gry: Because installing from .deb is easy for everyone, but unistalling with terminal isn't. | 12:33 |
| gry | would you be unable to uninstall it using synaptic, by typing the package name and hitting enter, then using the context menu? | 12:34 |
| Cameraman | gry: I'm looking on this through eyes of every-day consumer. Synaptic is not installed on default in Ubuntu so it would be needed to install it first. It's not practical. | 12:35 |
| gry | why they don't install it by default while including means to graphically install a .deb is beyond me | 12:36 |
| lenny___ | because they wanted to promote the ubuntu store | 12:37 |
| lenny___ | and display books and other junk | 12:37 |
| Cameraman | gry: I don't understand You. | 12:38 |

| caphomial | Hello there, I'm running Ubuntu, I installed ubuntu desktop package, depusi installing lubuntu is lighter and rallenti I would like how to remove? (I still do not see the ubuntu desktop btw, I would completely remove ubuntu (packets) | 12:40 |
| lenny___ | back up your data and reistall from scratch | 12:41 |
| lenny___ | it looks like you've messed your insall bad enough it probably isn't worth trying to fix it | 12:42 |
| LucaS05 | which is the apache 2.4.9 configuration file? | 12:42 |
| gry | Cameraman: I mean, I do not understand why they let you easily install debs manually without means to uninstall them in the first place. If I dediced to not include Synaptic by default, I would also stop including such means to easily install debs manually. | 12:42 |
| Cameraman | When i do type in Terminal: skype [ENTER] it just send me to next row. How can I start Skype? | 12:43 |
| lenny___ | don't start it at all | 12:44 |
| lenny___ | skype connects yout to the NSA and that's about it | 12:45 |
| Cameraman | lenny___: I use free apps for everyday use but Skype is needed for specific contact. | 12:45 |
| gry | I would suggest moving ~/.Skype to ~/.Skype.1 and trying to start it again | 12:45 |
| lenny___ | no, don't do that | 12:45 |
| wheatthin | gry, you can look to see what the dependencies to that deb package you installed, and if it wasn't extra from outside the repository, you can purge that one package | 12:45 |
| lenny___ | look around your desktop to see if you have a little skype icon somewhere | 12:46 |
| gry | with a terminal, yes, wheatthin; the conversation related to a person who has not learned to use it yet | 12:46 |
| lenny___ | because maybe you've configured it to start minified or in the try | 12:46 |
| smashash | Hi. I'm a relatively new linux/ubuntu user. Can someone help me? | 12:46 |
| gry | yes | 12:46 |
| lenny___ | tray* | 12:46 |
| wheatthin | smashash, just state your question | 12:46 |
| smashash | I need to adjust some settings on my desktop monitor. I used to do this in windows using samsung's software but I couldn't find one that works with ubuntu | 12:47 |
| smashash | The software used DDC2, and it also worked within the intel graphics settings panel within windows | 12:47 |
| wheatthin | smashash, you'll want to go into display settings in the control center | 12:47 |
| lenny___ | you may want to ga back to windows actually | 12:48 |
| wheatthin | lenny___, be helpful or leave | 12:48 |
| lenny___ | because that kind of functionality, if you nee it | 12:48 |
| lenny___ | it's nott in linux | 12:48 |
| lenny___ | wheatthin, I am being more helpful than you | 12:48 |
| gry | I'm using skype on linux for over 4 years without issues | 12:48 |
| smashash | wheatthin, I couldn't find any of the settings I need in settings>displays | 12:48 |
| wheatthin | lenny___, negative. | 12:48 |
| gry | please don't go personal and just stop that specific unhelpful advice | 12:49 |
| gry | the request doesn't mean anything against you | 12:49 |
| smashash | The settings I need to adjust are: brightness, contrast, gamma presets and auto resize (widescreen stretch toggle) | 12:49 |
| LucaS05 | someone could help me with the 403 on apache 2.4.9? | 12:49 |
| lenny___ | stop being fanbois | 12:49 |
| lenny___ | some thing linux doesn't do | 12:49 |
| gry | I did, a long time ago | 12:49 |
| gry | it does skype; please cease | 12:49 |
| smashash | I could just install windows all over again but it seems like an overkill for something like this | 12:49 |
| wheatthin | smashash, I take it you're using a regular ubuntu install with unity? | 12:50 |
| gry | smashash: the windows advice was not directed to you; please discard it | 12:50 |
| smashash | wheatthin, yes I am, 14.04, but with some customizations | 12:50 |
| gry | Cameraman: did you get it to launch properly? | 12:51 |
| Cameraman | gry: It used to work. | 12:51 |
| gry | right now, after following my advice? | 12:51 |
| smashash | gry, I already did | 12:51 |
| gry | good | 12:51 |
| Cameraman | gry: But without working webcam (that worked under Cheese). | 12:51 |
| Cameraman | gry: Now webcam works with Skype, but Skype doesn't start. | 12:52 |
| gry | and now it started launching properly but without working webcam? | 12:52 |
| gry | ok | 12:52 |
| gry | did you follow my advice about moving a directory and trying again? | 12:52 |
| lenny___ | don't do that | 12:52 |
| Cameraman | gry: And there's no error message. | 12:52 |
| gry | I know; did you or not? | 12:52 |
| lenny___ | it's probably already running | 12:52 |
| lenny___ | he just doesn't see it | 12:52 |
| gry | ok, please run "ps aux | grep skype" | 12:52 |
| lenny___ | because it's trayfied | 12:52 |
| gry | for those people who don't understand that if a program is running then it'll not exit and send you back to the command prompt :) | 12:53 |
| lenny___ | wheatthin, don't tell me to leave ever again you idiot | 12:53 |
| gry | Cameraman, ok? 1. run "ps aux | grep skype", if output is empty, then 2. move ~/.Skype to ~/.Skype.1 and try to start it again | 12:53 |
| lenny___ | wheatthin, mind your business | 12:53 |

| amirseni | was afraid of that. root partition is on a separate partition and home on another. the fsck was on the root partition. anyway that i can apt-get reinstall? | 12:59 |
| bekks | amirseni: You need to find out what got corrupted, which is nearly impossible because of the complexity and the sheer number of files. | 13:00 |
| smashash420 | can someone reply so I know I'm connected? :P | 13:00 |

| bekks | amirseni: If restoring your backup is a oneliner, thats the one you are looking for :) | 13:01 |

| Blenda | hi all, i'm new to Linux, have waited years to convert my comp, and i'm sooo happy with the result!!! I have my Blender/Gimp combo, Winamp clone (Audacious), VLC, Firefox, and even Games EMulator. The only things that don't allow me to ERASE my windows, is Ableton Live and C&C3 ;( THANK YOU TO ALL PEOPLE WHO WORKED ON LINUX/UBUNTU!!! | 13:56 |
| famax8 | samthewildone, erm..no.. dont upgrade that way - clean install or from external drive is a safer way | 13:56 |
| legba | *pours another measure of the devil's own likker down his gawd-given throat and stares into space like...like...well, you know* | 13:58 |
| famax8 | Blenda, for ableton you have alternates such as renoise - also there are the combo apps that can give the same functions just in more complete in each domaine (mixer - sampler - looper etc) | 13:58 |
| Blenda | famax8 : yeah i've checked renoise, and it seems to be a great software, but ican't leave Live! I saw that WIne can handle Ableton 8 (not sure), and i have to check for my PC Games | 13:59 |
| famax8 | Blenda, for c and c i presume is command and conquer? - Wine or playonlinux will do the job - now you will need to know if you want to go for a ubuntu studio or for a normal version | 13:59 |
| jess44 | just run vmware | 14:00 |
| famax8 | Blenda, i've tested the whole ableton on wine and ....eh... not that good - you need a big machine otherwise | 14:00 |
| Blenda | famax8: hope you've read my previous ;) Command & conquer right, about Ubuntu i don't really know, i've just tried the lighter one, and installed all the required drivers | 14:00 |
| famax8 | vmware=lot of resources needed = big machine needed ^^ not sure our buddy has a 8gb of ram in order to be smooth | 14:01 |
| Blenda | famax8 : ok for ableton, i'll stay with my XP for themoment | 14:01 |
| jess44 | wmare doesnt use that many resources and it runs the cpu direct | 14:01 |
| Deihmos | makes more sense to dual boot | 14:02 |

| jess44 | no it doesnt, not for ableton | 14:02 |
| famax8 | if you do just some app stuff like salesforce etc ok just have a big proc and is fine but for playing... | 14:02 |
| Blenda | my i980x has been stolen, so now i'm on my old Q6600 8Go ;( but it has a 460GTX 2Go, so i'm still alive | 14:03 |
| famax8 | for gaming not ableton - this works on wine but not great in low specs with ram and proc - tested and it does make a difference | 14:03 |
| jess44 | dunno about gaming, i guess it would slow down a bit | 14:03 |
| Blenda | sure | 14:03 |
| famax8 | but actually yeah have a try with ableton on vmware - might work fine | 14:04 |
| jess44 | yeah it should | 14:05 |
| Blenda | or VirtualBox (cause it's already installed here | 14:05 |
| Blenda | ? | 14:05 |
| famax8 | give it a shot | 14:05 |
| Blenda | ok thanks dudes | 14:05 |
| famax8 | ultimately is to use something other than wine | 14:05 |
| Blenda | so there's hope | 14:05 |
| famax8 | which to me has never proven to work fine with ableton or any other music apps | 14:06 |
| famax8 | laggin constantly and | 14:06 |
| famax8 | always | 14:08 |
| famax8 | haha | 14:08 |
| famax8 | you can also use LMMS | 14:08 |
| legba | staggers to his feet and clears his throat | 14:08 |

| bobo69 | I'm not sure if this is at all related to the zfs issue. But I only noticed after I moved the pool over | 14:10 |
| jess44 | §) | 14:10 |
| famax8 | Blenda, well, rather than have ableton doing all in one app but having reduced functionalities you can use one app for each functions and blend them in an ultimate one or via Qjack | 14:10 |
| famax8 | and pochtron was for legba | 14:11 |

| jess44 | theres also qemu but i dont know what that would be like with ableton. it emulates processors too, which seems a bit pointless to me | 14:12 |
| ikonia | do not use virtualization for audio processing | 14:12 |

| legba | okies...exfat question, installed fuse, installed ntfs3g, and this: Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /media/legba/Falstaff: Command-line `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077" "/dev/sdc1" "/media/legba/Falstaff"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat' | 14:14 |
| ikonia | legba: fuser and ntfs3g is already installed | 14:14 |
| legba | any insights, anyone? | 14:15 |
| Blenda | kidding mode : go Windows | 14:15 |
| ikonia | legba: that error is nothing to do with fuser/ntfs as it's using fat | 14:15 |
| legba | din't work to begin with | 14:15 |
| legba | okies | 14:15 |
| varikonniemi | hello, i changed the available cpu speeds to include the default max value of my cpu, and now the laptop's fan won't go to silent anymore even after i changed it back | 14:15 |
| ikonia | legba: again didn't work != not installesd | 14:15 |
| ikonia | legba: that error basically says it knows nothing about the file system type "extfat" | 14:16 |
| famax8 | Blenda, "go windows"??wanna get banned?? :P | 14:16 |
| ikonia | which to be honest, I've never seen extfat as a file system type | 14:16 |
| legba | works perfectly in win7 | 14:16 |
| legba | the flash drive, that is | 14:16 |
| ikonia | legba: no it doesn't | 14:16 |
| ikonia | legba: the disk may work perfectly but that mount command has nothing to do with windows | 14:16 |
| ikonia | legba: what file system is on the device | 14:16 |
| legba | right | 14:17 |
| legba | exfat, says the automount barf | 14:18 |
| ikonia | legba: I'm not asking you the automount barf | 14:18 |
| ikonia | legba: I'm asking "what file system is on the device" | 14:18 |
| legba | righto, fat32 | 14:19 |
| ikonia | legba: ok, so | 14:19 |
| ikonia | legba: the file system type should be "vfat32" I believe | 14:19 |
| ikonia | legba: however I suspect you have removed packages | 14:19 |
| legba | okies | 14:19 |
| ikonia | which is why your machine doesn't appear to know what's going on with it | 14:20 |
| fuzzywhirlpool | For exfat, you need to install exfat-fuse - read and write exFAT driver for FUSE | 14:21 |
| fuzzywhirlpool | try apt-cache search exfat. | 14:21 |
| legba | nods | 14:21 |
| ikonia | again this should already be installed | 14:21 |
| legba | it is installed | 14:21 |
| ikonia | so you should not ned to install anything | 14:22 |
| fuzzywhirlpool | Oh, yeah. Exfat-utils is also usable to do filesystem jobs. | 14:22 |
| legba | so i'll have to manually mount the drive | 14:22 |
| ikonia | legba: you shouldn't have to | 14:23 |
| ikonia | legba: however I suspect you've been messing with your system removing packages | 14:23 |
| fuzzywhirlpool | Read the fuse manual. | 14:23 |
| legba | will do, thank you all | 14:23 |

| jeff4 | on my server side this is what happens when i try to connect with my client. 08:59:36 https://gist.github.com/anonymous/4f4120282484fa8b0576 | 14:28 |
| compdoc | not very useful | 14:29 |
| jeff4 | well, client side appears to be timing out on traceroute i get 1 * * * | 14:30 |
| varikonniemi | so anyone have a clue on how to get the fan to behave normally again? | 14:31 |
| Obamango | random question, is there a utility I can use to increase color saturation | 14:31 |
| jeff4 | see, im trying to set up a minecraft server, but this issue seems less related to mine craft and more related to just connection.... | 14:31 |
| famax8 | is the server name a number? jess44 | 14:32 |
| jeff4 | no shouldnt be | 14:32 |
| jeff4 | i named my server-very creatively i might add- "ubuntu" | 14:33 |
| famax8 | thats odd - are you using a switch in the middle? | 14:33 |
| jeff4 | no router | 14:34 |
| jeff4 | saving up money for a cisco lab kit :) | 14:34 |
| famax8 | as in nothing not even a router or no switch but a router? | 14:34 |
| jeff4 | right... router plugs into both server and client | 14:34 |
| famax8 | is the router well setup? sorry to ask the dumbest questions but you know sometimes... ;) | 14:36 |
| jeff4 | it was no issue for a friend and I to be on the same lan, and multiplayer but we both ahd actual game clients, not server... | 14:36 |
| jeff4 | yes, router should be set up, unless there is an extra setting im not sure off.... otherwise we wouldnt be talking :P | 14:37 |

| virtouni | Hello, people. If I get an ARM device whose architecture is properly supported by Canonical, will it have all the accompanying repositories? i.e. will I get to apt-get install like I normally do on x86? | 14:37 |
| ikonia | virtouni: what arm devices are support by canonical ? | 14:38 |
| famax8 | jeff4, "should be" is not a sure buddy... | 14:38 |
| compdoc | virtouni, Im not sure all repositories apply to that cpu | 14:38 |
| virtouni | ikonia: ARMv7 and above? You know the ones BeagleBoard and the likes use. | 14:38 |
| ikonia | virtouni: they don't support v7 | 14:38 |
| virtouni | Er, v8. Confuse them sometimes. | 14:39 |
| Symphonym | Anyone know a safe/light-weight password manager for ubuntu? | 14:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | virtouni: We'll have the click packages set up, but we'll have to deal with packages built for that arch | 14:39 |
| famax8 | check the ports and different settings like limits of upload and remote connection (if needed) | 14:39 |
| virtouni | compdoc: Which does and which doesn't? Where can I find more info on all that? | 14:39 |
| jeff4 | well, i beileve it is, because 1 ) im on the internet via the router. 2) if my friend and I open up our game clients, we can multiplayer that way. Im merely trying to introduce a third machine with only a server client, | 14:39 |
| virtouni | SonikkuAmerica: Yes, I want to know if the repos are available for ARM archs. | 14:40 |
| ikonia | virtouni: arm is a community release | 14:40 |
| ikonia | virtouni: so it's not packaged/supported by caonical | 14:40 |
| compdoc | virtouni, im just guessing because its not x86. Be interestig to know. try it and get back to us | 14:40 |
| jeff4 | so right now router shows both server and client 1 online/connected | 14:40 |
| ikonia | virtouni: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM | 14:40 |
| virtouni | ikonia: Community-supported? But I thought Canonical released ARM images and such? | 14:41 |
| ikonia | virtouni: it's a community port | 14:41 |
| ikonia | virtouni: check the link I sent you | 14:41 |
| virtouni | Right, I'm moving to ubuntu-arm, thanks for the help. | 14:42 |
| famax8 | jeff4, must be something with some limits of connection on a port or so | 14:42 |
| jeff4 | how would i "zero" in on that? | 14:43 |

| blarghlarghl | hi all. i have a server that currently has 1 hard drive in it. i'd like to install ubuntu on it, and then later on convert to a raid 5 array by adding three more disks. i assume it's possible to migrate to a RAID array without losing data, but i'm not finding any info on google... | 15:00 |
| blarghlarghl | Any hints? | 15:01 |
| gry | yep 1. make backup of all data 2. play with this thing and be confident in not losing these data | 15:01 |
| blarghlarghl | it's entirely empty anyway, so there's no risk of losing anything | 15:01 |
| === sburjan` is now known as sburjan | ||
| gry | not a very specific suggestion but being confident in what i am doing is step 1 of any process like that; someone else would be able to give you more thoughts | 15:02 |
| blarghlarghl | but i would like to start setting the machine up the way i need it, and then later add the disks. | 15:02 |
| gry | then do these 2 steps at the "later" point :) | 15:02 |

| SchrodingersScat | !info dch | levo | 15:19 |
| ubottu | levo: Package dch does not exist in trusty | 15:19 |
| levo | SonikkuAmerica: debchange, used in debian packaging to create changelog and things | 15:19 |
| SchrodingersScat | !info devscripts | levo | 15:19 |
| ubottu | levo: devscripts (source: devscripts): scripts to make the life of a Debian Package maintainer easier. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.1 (trusty), package size 772 kB, installed size 1764 kB | 15:19 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Oh, debchange. Yes we have that | 15:19 |
| SonikkuAmerica | But you should probably use Debian to make packages in Debian first before packaging for Ubuntu | 15:20 |
| jelly | levo: presumably dch is in the devscripts package just like on Debian | 15:20 |

| Guest79395 | Hi there, noob question, I have ubuntu 10.04 and nginx 0.7.6 installed. I want to install nginx 1.6 on it using dpkg. What's the right way to to do it? | 15:21 |
| xangua | Guest79395: upgrade or compile | 15:21 |
| levo | SonikkuAmerica: sounds like odd to me, you mean i can't create a debian package out of upstream tarball in ubuntu? | 15:22 |
| meganerd | use the nginx repository | 15:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | levo: You could, but technically speaking that's going backwards. | 15:22 |
| Guest79395 | meganerd: nginx repo doesn't have 1.6 for ubuntu 10.04 | 15:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Guest79395: You shouldn't be using 10.04 | 15:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | We don't support it | 15:23 |
| notan_ | hi | 15:23 |
| Guest79395 | SonnikuAmerica: nginx 1.6 is not supported on 10.04? | 15:23 |
| TJ- | levo: What SonikkuAmerica is talking about is, I think, the procedure for getting a new package into the Debian and Ubuntu archives, where it is preferable to get the package into Debian so it is automatically 'synced' into the Ubuntu archives later | 15:23 |

| bekks | Xtremist: Actually, Freenode is the wrong network when looking for "hackers". | 17:07 |
| Xtremist | oops! sorry! fellas! my bad | 17:07 |
| redfishvanish | so I went into the terminal and entered bzr launchpad-login [$MY_USER_NAME] | 17:07 |
| Xtremist | oops! sorry! fellas! my bad | 17:07 |
| redfishvanish | it seems like it didn't do anything | 17:07 |
| loa | bekks, changed to 12.04 | 17:07 |
| TJ- | redfishvanish: it'll just do the log-in, or should... further commands will use the resulting 'cookie' for authentication | 17:08 |
| loa | bekks, system don't boot without one drive. but as i see it marked it as missing... | 17:08 |
| redfishvanish | then I tried to do a sftp bazaar.launchpad.net | 17:08 |
| redfishvanish | and it says that [$MY_SYSTEM_LOGIN] is not a valid user id | 17:09 |
| redfishvanish | then I did some digging | 17:09 |
| redfishvanish | and tried to do whoami | 17:09 |
| redfishvanish | and when I do bzr whoami, it returns my system login | 17:10 |
| redfishvanish | not the whoami that I set | 17:10 |

| bekks | loa: Which RAID level is it? | 17:11 |
| redfishvanish | TJ, is there a way to "clear" that "cookie"? | 17:11 |
| TJ- | redfishvanish: does "bzr whoami" show your Launchpad registered email address? | 17:11 |
| redfishvanish | yes, within <> | 17:12 |
| redfishvanish | so it bzr whoami returns <foo@bar.com> | 17:12 |
| TJ- | redfishvanish: and your 'push' command was something like "bzr push sftp://<your-launchpad-username>@bazaar.launchpad.net/~<your-launchpad-username>/..." ? | 17:13 |

| redfishvanish | this was after following the branch owner's instructions on how to setup my folders in order to join his branch | 17:17 |
| redfishvanish | directories | 17:17 |
| TJ- | redfishvanish: OK, that should alias correctly. Have you tried "bzr push --verbose ..." in case there are additional clues? | 17:18 |
| redfishvanish | TJ-: nope let me try that | 17:18 |
| loa | bekks, second i will show | 17:18 |
| loa | bekks, wait | 17:18 |
| trism | redfishvanish: the push looks wrong, it should be: lp:~username/project/branch or lp:~username/+junk/branch | 17:19 |
| loa | bekks, i want to talk about that "doc" https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/advanced-installation.html#raid-maintenance I have no file called /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/mdadm | 17:20 |
| TJ- | redfishvanish: For the project you are pushing, you need to have configured your launchpad username correctly with "bzr whoami "ME <user@domain.tld>" " - if "bzr whoami" isn't showing your luanchpad ID you've not done that | 17:20 |
| loa | bekks, maybe it is old information... | 17:20 |
| loa | bekks, i want to use degradaded state... | 17:20 |

| loa | TJ-, i post exact link earlier) | 17:24 |
| TJ- | loa: Good... I missed your earlier comments :) | 17:24 |
| loa | bekks, so i don't even need to setup degradaded mode? | 17:25 |
| loa | all will be done automaticly? | 17:25 |
| loa | maybe it is becouse i switched off all options in sudo dpkg-reconfigure mdadm | 17:26 |

| loa | i see degraded there... | 18:11 |
| Ovan | loa: perhaps the easiest way is reinstall ubuntu for me :( | 18:11 |
| loa | so why i can't boot. | 18:11 |
| TJ- | loa: I suggest you create a bug report for this issue, and reference the bug I've pointed you to, and make it clear this is a *regression* | 18:11 |
| ikonia | I boot from a degraded arrays all the time | 18:12 |
| ikonia | is this something ubuntu has introduced with a patch | 18:12 |
| ikonia | as it isn't something that's mdadm's bug | 18:12 |
| TJ- | loa: From what I can see the mdadm initramfs scripts are no longer looking for "bootdegraded" but the documentation wasn't updated... looks to me like 1 dev with archive upload privileges fixing a bug that affected him, and breaking the established expectations for others | 18:13 |
| ikonia | TJ-: so this change is ubuntu specific | 18:13 |
| loa | maybe it is better to try 12.04 | 18:13 |
| TJ- | ikonia: Yeah, introduced in Trusty by Dimitri (xnox), to fix an issue specific to his config from the bug report | 18:13 |
| ikonia | idiot | 18:13 |
| loa | when it is eol of 12.04? | 18:14 |
| loa | 2017? | 18:14 |
| ikonia | where is the checking of commits on bugs | 18:14 |
| ikonia | I thought someone had to review this stuff before it went into main | 18:14 |
| TJ- | loa: when you've created the bug report let me know the number so I can add to it | 18:14 |
| TJ- | ikonia: xnox is a core dev, has upload rights, so from the changelog message I'm *guessing* it got uploaded into the archive without wider checks | 18:15 |
| ikonia | TJ-: so basically just broke the process | 18:16 |
| TJ- | ikonia: That's my best guess based on loa's circumstances, but I can't say 100% unless I can reproduce it here, which I'll try to do next week | 18:16 |
| redfishvanish | TJ-: I've got to be going. Any wisdom on what to do? | 18:17 |
| ikonia | TJ-: I suspect it is ubuntu specific changes as I'm booting degraded from 3 othrer distros and their initramfs checks and passes degraded arrays | 18:17 |

| === Elliott_ is now known as Guest10206 | ||
| redfishvanish | ok, thanks :) | 18:18 |
| loa | TJ-, you can reproduce it in virtualbox if you want. | 18:18 |

| loa | there no way to boot os? | 18:37 |
| got_right | okay will do, and i did a complete new installation | 18:37 |
| loa | or maybe access data on good drive? | 18:38 |
| loa | looks like i need replacement drive for that. | 18:38 |
| loa | and there no another way. | 18:38 |
| Beldar | got_right, Be careful with using the term updated, that is of no use is all and clouds the isuue | 18:38 |

| loa | ikonia, TJ- but in understand now why first time boot without one drive goes ok) But if i reboot my system again i have droped into busybox. | 18:43 |
| got_right | Beldar, i'm sorry my fault; but anyways the problem doesnt occur in a live session does however when im logged in | 18:45 |
| Beldar | got_right, logged in means the install? | 18:47 |
| frazpo_ | While troublshooting Zoneminder I messed up. I gave myself directory rights and now app cannot access what it needs to. Can I reverse a command line command? | 18:48 |
| frazpo_ | I ran sudo chown - (name) /tmp/zm | 18:48 |
| got_right | Beldar, yes my a session with my user account as opposed to a guest session | 18:48 |
| Beldar | got_right, How about the guest account, live means from a install medium like a dvd/usb boot. | 18:49 |
| === nk1000 is now known as ciop8500 | ||

| got_right | beldar, okay i just tested if the bug occurs in the guest account and it doesnt, sorry if im confusing you | 18:51 |
| got_right | i will get into this lingua eventually | 18:51 |
| === dannib_ is now known as dannib | ||
| Beldar | got_right, I'm not confused, I clearly stated "Try the guest account and a live environment" you have to read carefully. ;) So whatever the problem is it is what you have done, I have no idea of a fix. | 18:52 |
| tedgruen | hi, i am having problems with my bash-completion, and i cannot reinstall it. i am not sure whether the problem is with my bashrc file. while i have found bug reports on the same issue, i am not sure how to proceed. | 18:52 |
| apeoid | hi everyone. O | 18:54 |
| got_right | beldar, okay i will be looking into it maybe i can find out more about how and when it happens but is there anyways to reinstall unity? or reset? | 18:54 |
| Beldar | got_right, So we have isolated that is occurred with what you have done to the OS since the install, if it was just updates it would show in the guest account. So I would concentrate on the changes you have made on the channel and change the askubuntu to reflect what we have found. | 18:55 |
| apeoid | I've got a hard drive that I put in the desktop computer and on it is my ubuntu installation. now I have moved the hdd to an external enclosure with usb 3.0. how can I get it to boot? when it is turned on, and the computer turned on, it just stalls at the bios/uefi splash screen. | 18:55 |
| got_right | beldar, yup | 18:56 |
| excelsiora | Hi ubuntu, I'm about to fresh install 14.04 and I want to backup my keyring. Thoughts? | 18:56 |
| Blue11 | excelsiora: also backup /home/ and /etc/ | 18:56 |
| bekks | !backup | excelsiora | 18:57 |
| ubottu | excelsiora: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 18:57 |
| Beldar | got_right, There is a reset for unity and compiz, http://www.itworld.com/software/416001/reset-unity-desktop-ubuntu-1404 | 18:57 |
| excelsiora | I'm not backing up the whole home dir. I'm only backing up what I want. | 18:57 |
| Blue11 | excelsiora: make sure you include /etc/ then | 18:57 |
| bekks | excelsiora: Better backup whats important then. | 18:57 |
| excelsiora | all I want is all of my wifi passwords | 18:57 |
| excelsiora | I've already got everything else | 18:58 |
| Beldar | excelsiora, You can move home to it's own partition so you can do upgrades/reloads...etc with the same home. | 18:58 |
| excelsiora | no way, gonna start fresh | 18:58 |
| excelsiora | I just want my passwords | 18:58 |
| excelsiora | I can get them one by one, but who has time for that? | 18:59 |
| Beldar | excelsiora, You shou;d have that backed up anyway, what if your HD just failed? | 18:59 |
| excelsiora | Then I'd be SOL. | 18:59 |
| Beldar | excelsiora, and speaking of time spent you are now using ours free of charge, is this the wisest way? ;) | 19:00 |
| excelsiora | This is a convenience thing. I currently am languishing in 13.04, and I need to upgrade, I've got everything backed up except for the passwords. | 19:00 |
| excelsiora | everything I want. Nothing I don't | 19:01 |
| excelsiora | Well, probably a few things I don't. I'll check for dupes later though. | 19:01 |
| Beldar | 13.04 has been eol for awhile I'm seeing a trend here excelsiora ; ) | 19:01 |
| excelsiora | I know. Guess I'll have to figure out where they are myself then. | 19:02 |
| excelsiora | this hasn't changed since 12.04, right? | 19:02 |

| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 19:03 |
| Beldar | Blue11, THat is a long upgrade from a eol to a eol, I would fresh install | 19:03 |
| Beldar | to 13.10 about to go eol | 19:04 |
| Blue11 | Beldar: yes I always to fresh installs. upgrades are problematic at best | 19:04 |
| Blue11 | however I have my home directory in a seperate partition so upgrades are fairly straightforward | 19:05 |
| Beldar | Blue11, I meant fresh install to 14.04, just mentioning that 13.10 is about to go eol | 19:05 |
| Blue11 | Beldar: yes fresh install of 14.04 | 19:05 |
| Beldar | Blue11, move her's to a partition https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 19:05 |
| marth | hello Ubuntu users! | 19:06 |
| Blue11 | Beldar: I already have her home directory in a seperate partition, why would I want to move it? | 19:06 |
| Beldar | Blue11, YOu had not stated that how would I know. | 19:06 |
| Blue11 | yes I said my instead of hers - mea culpa | 19:07 |
| Beldar | Blue11, Your asking about upgrading when you already know about a separate home. ;) | 19:07 |
| Beldar | and one is actually there | 19:07 |
| Blue11 | Beldar: no I was commenting on excelsiora approach. My problem with my mom is she has super slow internet (tm) - like 300-500K -- I need her to bring her laptop here for a long weekend. | 19:08 |

| Seven_Six_Two | Can't install java7 SE using webupd8 ppa. Is there a fix in the works? Is it advised to just install from oracle directly? | 19:10 |
| Beldar | Blue11, 14.04 is supported for 5 years, so your choice. It sounds like you know how to do this kinda upgrade already, I'm a little confused as what you need from here. | 19:10 |
| Blue11 | Seven_Six_Two: I think you can just install jre-default and it should pickup 1.7 | 19:10 |
| Beldar | or just a fresh install | 19:11 |
| bekks | Seven_Six_Two: Elaborate "cant install" please. | 19:11 |
| Blue11 | Beldar: yeah I want to upgrade her machine - we just need to do it here, not there. | 19:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | bekks, the oracle-java7-installer downloads a file, and fails with a "sha256sum mismatch jdk-7u60-linux-x64.tar.gz | 19:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Oracle JDK 7 is NOT installed. | 19:11 |
| RedPenguin | hey all | 19:12 |
| antifa | hello guys ! | 19:12 |
| bekks | Seven_Six_Two: So the error is very clear. Delete the file and try again. | 19:12 |
| antifa | does any body know where to get help on rooting Android ? | 19:13 |
| Blue11 | Seven_Six_Two: try sudo apt-get install default-jre | 19:13 |
| RedPenguin | I have a buddy with Ubuntu 12.04 trying to use fglrx-legacy with RS780 HDMI, and for some reason, HDMI video works great, and you can test HDMI with MythTV and speaker-test but the system and alsamixer refuse to use the HDMI | 19:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | bekks, I've done that a few times. I've also replaced it with a manual download from oracle site, but the webupd8 installer deletes it and tries to download again. | 19:14 |
| === DalekSec_ is now known as DalekSec | ||
| Seven_Six_Two | Blue11, I'm not trying to install openjdk | 19:15 |
| bekks | Seven_Six_Two: Maybe its because the current JDK7 version is 75 already. | 19:15 |
| TJ- | Seven_Six_Two: It sounds rather like Oracle have changed the file but not changed the filename, and the downloader doesn't know the hash has changed | 19:15 |
| Blue11 | Seven_Six_Two: okay -- sorry | 19:15 |
| Seven_Six_Two | bekks, the oracle site is serving up 7u60 | 19:15 |
| Seven_Six_Two | bekks, what java version are you using? | 19:16 |
| TJ- | Seven_Six_Two: manually generate the sha256sum of the downloaded file and compare it against the one Oracle publishes on the download page | 19:16 |
| === squiddy_ is now known as apeoid2 | ||
| Seven_Six_Two | TJ-, oh the one that the webupd8 script is downloading isn't the one that I see on the site... I'll have to look in to where its coming from. the file sizes aren't even close to the same. | 19:17 |
| RedPenguin | oh we installed pulseaudio and puavolcontrol | 19:18 |
| RedPenguin | looks like we got it workin | 19:18 |
| got_right | beldar: it appears to have worked :) i also did update the askubuntu, even tho i cant answer my own question yet (only 8hours after asking) so i added a comment as well | 19:19 |

| foxbat | apeoid: cuz the device address changed | 19:30 |
| foxbat | check bios boot order etc | 19:30 |

| foxbat | if not then u shouldnt be using linux | 19:32 |
| apeoid | can anyone help me with booting to usb external hard drive? I think the issue is related to uefi/bios settings | 19:33 |

| tonyt | go into your bios and change the boot order. put usb first etc | 19:38 |
| foxbat | if its a uefi board you need permission from microsoft in order to run linux and open source software | 19:38 |

| virhilo | hi | 21:01 |
| virhilo | i connected my old ubuntu instalation drive into new machine | 21:01 |
| virhilo | now, the volume group name is same 'ubuntu-vg' | 21:01 |
| virhilo | so mouning either via console or file manager fails | 21:02 |
| cuddylier | Anyone else any ideas why ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0 doesn't reload my interfaces file on ubuntu server 14.04? | 21:02 |
| cuddylier | Rebooting does but I don't want to reboot everytime I add an IP | 21:02 |
| virhilo | any idea how to use some more unique name/rename old volume group? | 21:02 |
| bekks | cuddylier: because that just shuts down and starts up the interface. Just restart the networking service. | 21:04 |
| cuddylier | bekks: But ubuntu 14.04 removed the restarting network service command? | 21:05 |
| Jonnyw2k | what package do i need for make | 21:05 |
| Jonnyw2k | "-bash: make: command not found | 21:05 |
| Jonnyw2k | " | 21:05 |

| cuddylier | stop: Job failed while stopping | 21:05 |
| cuddylier | start: Job is already running: networking | 21:05 |
| cuddylier | bekks | 21:05 |
| goff | so if restart doesn't work, try stop and then start | 21:06 |
| bekks | Jonnyw2k: "make" | 21:06 |
| goff | # service networking stop | 21:06 |

| Ovan | Anybody know how to restore configuration files of the program? | 21:06 |
| cuddylier | goff: But I'm on SSH | 21:06 |
| goff | write a two line script and use nohup | 21:06 |
| goff | ;) | 21:06 |
| bekks | Ovan: Basically from your backup - or uninstall the program, remove the broken configs, and reinstall the program. | 21:06 |
| Jonnyw2k | bekks, Im missing GCC aswell :( and probably kernel sources | 21:06 |
| bekks | Jonnyw2k: Whats the actual issue you are having, besides installing a bunch of programs? | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | root@U3:/etc/network# service networking stop && service networking start | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | stop: Job failed while stopping | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | networking just won't stop | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | I'm using eth1 | 21:07 |
| Ovan | bekks, I have uninstalled it. by apt-get. Then removed its conf files and installed it again. But, config files were not restored ;c | 21:07 |
| Jonnyw2k | bekks, its a beaglebone black, so just trying to install stuff thats not in the armhf repo | 21:07 |
| Jonnyw2k | so Im assuming I will need to compile them for my system | 21:08 |
| goff | does init.d work to restart networking? | 21:08 |
| aeyesi | Anyone have any skill with touchpad/mouse fixing ? xD (its hell annyoing <,<) | 21:09 |
| goff | # /etc/init.d/network restart | 21:09 |

| cuddylier | bash: /etc/init.d/network: No such file or directory | 21:09 |
| cuddylier | No @ goff | 21:09 |
| goff | I'm out of ideas then. :) | 21:10 |
| bekks | Jonnyw2k: So just install build-essential, and the header of the running kernel | 21:10 |
| Kevin` | is there a way to make the software updater show package names? | 21:11 |
| Jonnyw2k | bekks, header? | 21:11 |
| bekks | Jonnyw2k: Yes. | 21:11 |
| Jonnyw2k | is that included in linux-source? | 21:12 |

| cheapie | Hi. | 21:24 |
| hoodedice | Hi tshot | 21:24 |
| LemonLake | oh my days, hi mate | 21:24 |
| LemonLake | like ello and stuff | 21:24 |
| cheapie | <cheapie> How about #ubuntu? Nothing worthwhile ever happens there. | 21:24 |
| LemonLake | we be here insulting your chan | 21:24 |
| hoodedice | cheapie, you zwizzing troll | 21:24 |
| cheapie | Oops, wrong spot. | 21:24 |
| * cheapie meant to PM that to somebody. | 21:25 | |
| LemonLake | zwiz zwiz | 21:25 |
| hoodedice | zwiz the zwiz mates | 21:25 |
| LemonLake | omg | 21:25 |
| kinkinkijkin | so, how about that flamewar about performance of hardwares? | 21:25 |
| hoodedice | intel sucks anyway | 21:25 |
| cheapie | I /may/ have been sending VanessaE the "highlights". | 21:25 |
| LemonLake | what would a netsplit be like on this chan? 1529 total dudes | 21:25 |
| LemonLake | that would be entropy | 21:25 |
| cheapie | I've been here during a netsplit before. | 21:26 |
| LemonLake | describe your feelings during this horrible event, cheapie | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | You know what Flightgear devs say about intel | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | ? | 21:26 |
| cheapie | Well, I was new to IRC, so it was basically this: | 21:26 |
| kinkinkijkin | I be a performance tester on a few big things, and I can say that, hooded, your insistence on getting an AMD processor is going to make your brain hurt | 21:26 |
| * cheapie suddenly sees a screen full of quit messages | 21:26 | |
| LemonLake | i thought we were being hacked or something | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | but. | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | ISRAEL. | 21:26 |
| cheapie | "WTF is a "*.net *.split" | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | -O | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | =O | 21:26 |
| LemonLake | then i goggled it | 21:26 |
| hoodedice | nono | 21:27 |
| LemonLake | and it was like 'yo this happens when dudes are like yo we movin you' | 21:27 |
| cheapie | goggled? | 21:27 |
| hoodedice | he !g net split it | 21:27 |
| LemonLake | hoodedice: couldn't, minetestbot was netsplit | 21:27 |
| hoodedice | ah ofc | 21:27 |
| hoodedice | how stoopid of me | 21:27 |
| cheapie | InchraNet's setting a world record for "world's longest netsplit", I think. | 21:27 |
| cheapie | It's been split for something like a month now. | 21:27 |
| hoodedice | InchraNet is a netsplit by nature | 21:28 |
| kinkinkijkin | If I might turn your attention to collective results found with the Dolphin benchmark, stinky poopoos who buy AMD processors rarely break 12 minutes, and intel's best is sitting on a cool 4 minutes | 21:28 |
| hoodedice | > Dolphin | 21:28 |
| hoodedice | > Wii | 21:28 |
| hoodedice | Go away | 21:28 |
| * cheapie is /not/ a "stinky poopoo"! | 21:28 | |
| hoodedice | BTW | 21:28 |
| kinkinkijkin | okay, stinky poopoos who buy AMD processors expecting them to be faster | 21:28 |
| hoodedice | kerner 3.13 does not support PS3 | 21:28 |
| kinkinkijkin | or because intel supports israel | 21:28 |

| m000gle | This may seem like a dumb question; but is there any way to copy a URL, from the URL bar, in versions 35+ of Google Chrome and Chromium? | 22:46 |
| m000gle | Since the most recent updates, clicking in the URL bar, where the URL of the current p[age is displayed, clears the bar and prevents you from copying it. | 22:46 |
| m000gle | I understand this is a Google Chrome & Chromium question, and I have asked it there with no response; however, as I've only experienced the issue on Ubuntu 14.04, I thought it worth asking here as well. | 22:46 |
| reisio | m000gle: CTRL+c doesn't work? | 22:47 |
| m000gle | reisio: No. Upon clicking the URL bar, the URL disappears and leaves the bar completely blank, as if it is assuming you will be typing something else; this leaves nothing to copy. | 22:50 |
| MadsRC | I'm having trouble setting my $TERM to xterm-256color. Can't do it in bashrc (or zshrc) as it will then override the $TERM im using when using tmux. Where can I else put it? System won't read .profile or /etc/profile so can't put it there :S | 22:50 |
| reisio | m000gle: that's not what I asked | 22:50 |
| Yoyas | hello | 22:51 |
| Fishscene | Salutations | 22:51 |
| m000gle | reisio: CTRL-c with the cursor in the blank bar does nothing. The "copy" option in the context menu is greyed out. | 22:51 |
| MadsRC | Also tried setting it in .xinitrc and .Xdefaults (Not runnign unity but i3 as my WM) | 22:51 |
| reisio | m000gle: so ctrl+c then ctrl+v does nothing? | 22:52 |
| reisio | Fishscene: hi | 22:52 |
| Fishscene | Oh, I was saying hello to Yoyas. lol. | 22:52 |
| reisio | MadsRC: if [ ! "$TERM" = "screen" ]; then ... | 22:53 |
| m000gle | reisio: Nothing. That would be the expected behaviour: 1) Click URL bar; 2) URL is now highlighted; 3) CTRL+C or Right-Click and copy would copy the highlighted text. This is also how in functioned in the past. | 22:53 |
| trism | m000gle: that's weird, it doesn't clear the bar here with chrome 35, is this -dev or -stable | 22:53 |
| reisio | MadsRC: or just != :p | 22:53 |
| MadsRC | reisio: In what file :) | 22:53 |
| reisio | MadsRC: whatever you want to change it in | 22:53 |

| m000gle | None. Replicated it on two Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit installs. | 22:55 |
| reisio | ronin: is_recoverable | 22:56 |
| trism | m000gle: so -stable, are you using the gtk theme or the classic theme? | 22:56 |

| macscam1 | hey what happens when I type this : "mv file1 ..." (note the three periods ... it's a typo from missing the slash key) - i cant find the files anymore | 22:57 |

| reisio | it's his eyes that already failed him | 22:59 |
| trism | m000gle: any difference if you switch to the classic theme? I don't see a difference either way, but might be a theming issue (though you would think ctrl+c/v would still work if so) | 23:02 |
| Ladon | I'm having a problem with xrdp on ubuntu 14.04. I'm connected via xrdp and can't do anything that requires authentication-- I'm never prompted for a password. I tried to create a blank .Xauthority, touch it, and chmod 600 but nothing changes | 23:05 |
| m000gle | trism: Classic theme had no effect. One second; I'm testing out something recommended in #chromium-support | 23:06 |
| reisio | if it were a theme issue, it'd work even if you couldn't see it | 23:07 |
| Ladon | I'm using MATE at the moment but I get this error, which is the only thing I have to go off of: | 23:11 |
| m000gle | trism: The #chromium-support suggested CTRL+L similarly had no effect. However, there is an interesting pattern: Every time I encounter this problem, where I click in the URL bar and it clears itself; if I remove the cursor from the URL bar, change to a new tab, and return, the original URL re-appears | 23:11 |
| m000gle | trism: If I repeat those steps, going to a new tab and returning, without removing the cursor from the URL bar which had cleared itself, the bar remains empty | 23:12 |
| m000gle | trism: Not a bad work around, but still a bit odd | 23:13 |
| trism | m000gle: yes very strange | 23:13 |
| meLon | Hey guys. I cannot get X to restart after `do-dist-upgrade` from 13.10 to 14.04. I think I could fix the problem if I could only get internect access. Using lshw, I can see my Broadcom card, but I cannot figure out which device it's linked to (ie: eth0). I only see lo. `ifconfig` only shows lo. | 23:14 |
| meLon | `cat /proc/net/dev` only shows lo, as well. | 23:15 |
| ikonia | then your card is not loading | 23:15 |
| ikonia | lo is loopback | 23:15 |
| ikonia | I suspect the kernel module is not loading for your card or the firmware is missing | 23:15 |
| meLon | ikonia: Yeah, but I'm not sure how to get it working | 23:15 |
| ikonia | look at the boot logs to find out whats failing, check the kernel module is loaded | 23:15 |
| meLon | ikonia: I installed the drivers: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/amd64/bcmwl-kernel-source/6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2 | 23:15 |
| ikonia | when did you install them ? | 23:15 |
| meLon | Well, I can't fix what dmesg is telling me ikonia, because I dont have internet access | 23:15 |
| ikonia | before or after the upgrade | 23:16 |
| Xano | The /var/mail/Xano folder on my 10.4 VPS is insanely large (17GB). What could have caused this? Do local mail servers use those folders for storage as well? | 23:16 |
| ikonia | meLon: how can you know you can't fix it when you don't know what ht eproblem is | 23:16 |
| meLon | After my boot failed and wlan0 was missing, I thought it would be good to make sure I had the drivers installed before coming in here :D | 23:16 |
| ikonia | meLon: so the card was working | 23:16 |
| meLon | x not starting is not really related to networking before login not working imo, ikonia | 23:16 |
| ikonia | meLon: and you installed drivers for a working card....that broke it | 23:16 |
| meLon | The card was working in 13.10, yes | 23:16 |
| ikonia | meLon: was it working after the upgrade | 23:16 |
| meLon | No, it wasn't working when I installed it | 23:17 |
| ikonia | meLon: if it wasn't working - how did you install the package | 23:18 |
| meLon | I really wish this thing had an ethernet card. It's really frustrating not being able to solve the real problem. I'm really confused as to why the computer knows its a broadcom card, but I can't see it as a network interface :\ | 23:20 |
| ikonia | meLon: if it wasn't working - how did you install the package | 23:20 |
| meLon | USB man | 23:20 |
| meLon | dpkg -i | 23:20 |
| ikonia | and where all dependencies met ? | 23:20 |
| meLon | Yes, because I downloaded them and installed them as well | 23:21 |
| meLon | So, the problem is *NOT* that I don't have the drivers installed, was my point | 23:21 |
| ikonia | so in that case you can fix the problem | 23:21 |
| ikonia | who said you even need drivers ? | 23:21 |
| worik | Ok. I just did a do-upgrade as prompted on login. Now all my virtual hosts are down. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2182652 suggests that names must end in .conf (why was I not told that in the upgrade process?) Now at least I am getting errors: "[Sun Jul 13 11:20:43.164805 2014] [authz_core:error] [pid 2055] [client 8.29.152.73:48669] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: " What does this mean? | 23:21 |
| ikonia | you appear to have done random things without checking for the actual problem | 23:21 |
| meLon | I did. When I came in here and gave you all of the information I had, and you decided to take that little piece of information and go off on it | 23:21 |
| ikonia | because it's important | 23:22 |
| ikonia | meLon: so whats the status of the deviec | 23:22 |
| ikonia | device | 23:22 |
| meLon | It doesn't have a status. It's not listed in ifconfig. I am confused as to why I have a network adapter that's showing up in lshw isn't showing up in ifconfig | 23:23 |
| ikonia | lshw is nothing to do with if the device is configure | 23:23 |
| ikonia | is the module for it loaded | 23:24 |
| ikonia | what's the status of the card during the boot process, does it error ? | 23:24 |
| meLon | Word. I've just never had it show a pretty name and not work ikonia lol | 23:24 |
| golionz | Hello, I my "a" key will not work, i have to copy and paste it for it work. | 23:24 |
| meLon | I'll go check the logs again ikonia | 23:24 |
| m000gle | trism: I updated to (-dev) Chromium 37.0.2062.3 Ubuntu 14.04 (279868) (64-bit) via PPA ... It does appear to have solved it, for the most part | 23:26 |
| m000gle | trism: 1) If the page has fully loaded, the problem no longer occurs. | 23:26 |
| m000gle | trism: 2) If the URL bar is clicked while the page is loading, the URL bar clears, as described in the problem above | 23:27 |
| m000gle | trism: That said, #1 means it's solved in the vast majority of instances | 23:27 |

| worik | What else do I need to change? | 23:34 |
| ikonia | downgrade / | 23:34 |
| ikonia | what are you talking about downgrade ? | 23:34 |
| worik | I did a 'do-upgrade' and it has broken my system. I was very careful and read every note, or so I thought. Not the first time | 23:35 |
| ikonia | so what is the downgrade you are talking about | 23:35 |
| worik | ikonia Un=buntu said it was an upgrade. But now my web server is broken. That is a down grade. If I could find out what is wrong, perhaps it might be an upgrade. I am regretting.... | 23:36 |
| Ryan_ | Hello guys, I just downloaded and burned the .ISO of Ubuntu onto my USB | 23:36 |
| ikonia | worik: that is not a downgrade at all | 23:37 |
| Ryan_ | But when I boot from it all I get is Boot error | 23:37 |
| ikonia | worik: are you saying you have upgraded your whole ubuntu version from X to Y | 23:37 |
| worik | ikonia: Helpful. How do I get my virtual hosts back? | 23:37 |
| Ntemis | did you md5 check the iso? | 23:37 |
| ikonia | worik: if so from what version to what version | 23:37 |
| worik | Yes. do-upgrade. Prompted on login | 23:37 |
| ikonia | "do-upgrade" ? | 23:38 |
| worik | How do I tell what version I am running from the command line? | 23:38 |
| ikonia | worik: what version did you upgrade from/to | 23:38 |
| worik | How do I tell what version I am running from the command line? | 23:38 |
| ikonia | worik: you don't know what version you where running ? | 23:38 |
| worik | ikonia: How do I tell what version I am running from the command line? | 23:38 |
| ikonia | worik: answer the question | 23:38 |
| ikonia | worik: do you know what version you where running ? | 23:38 |
| worik | How would I know what version I am running? I do not know. I knew as I installed, then it was the version I was running. The version number means very little to me | 23:39 |
| Ryan_ | Can you help me | 23:39 |
| ikonia | worik: so you read all the documentation and information, but you don't know what version you where running and what version you upgraded to | 23:39 |
| Ntemis | did you md5 check the iso? Ryan_ | 23:40 |
| ikonia | worik: sounds like you didn't do any checks | 23:40 |
| Ryan_ | Ntemis: no I didn't | 23:40 |
| worik | ikonia: It is just a number. Why is it important? I do not know how to detect the version from the command line. | 23:40 |
| Ntemis | Ryan_: can you do it now? | 23:40 |
| worik | ikonia: I checked each diff of each config file as it came by. | 23:41 |
| ikonia | worik: it's not just a number | 23:41 |
| ikonia | it's very important and a critical factor in understading your system | 23:41 |
| Ryan_ | Ntemis: how? Its a iso file | 23:41 |
| worik | ikonia: It is to me! I know it matters to you. How can I tell from the command line? | 23:41 |
| ikonia | it doesn't matter nw | 23:41 |
| ikonia | now | 23:41 |
| ikonia | as you don't know what version you went from | 23:41 |
| ikonia | so knowing what version you went to is only %50 useful | 23:42 |
| ikonia | you've not done enough attention to basic detail before doing an upgrade | 23:42 |
| ikonia | so I'm not going to take this forward any more | 23:42 |
| Ntemis | Ryan_: windows or linux? | 23:43 |
| Ryan_ | Ntemis: Its Ubuntu/Linux | 23:43 |
| Ntemis | You are running linux? | 23:44 |
| apeoid | what happens when you draw more power than your PSU can supply? | 23:44 |
| Ryan_ | Ntemis: yes | 23:44 |
| worik | ikonia: That is very passive aggressive. From the logs "2014-07-13 10:11:15,236 INFO Using config files '['./DistUpgrade.cfg.precise']'" | 23:44 |
| ikonia | worik: it's not passive agressive at all | 23:45 |
| Ntemis | Ryan_: http://www.sinf.gr/en/hashcalc.html | 23:45 |
| worik | ikonia: I have a very specific problem. i need help wth. I asked a series of questions and you have not answered even one. | 23:45 |
| ikonia | worik: because you have not done the basic checks of a full distro upgrade | 23:46 |
| ikonia | and you do not have the base information required to take this forward | 23:46 |
| ikonia | so I choose to not take this forward myself | 23:46 |
| Ryan_ | Ntemis: ok | 23:46 |
