[00:00] i'm interested in installing kali on ubuntu, any tips or recommendations [00:01] what is kali> [00:01] if you don't mind me asking, what's kali? [00:01] heh at least I'm not the only one [00:01] RainMan28: i could be wrong, but this is the syntax for cron * * * * * /home//lightswitch [00:01] thank you eeee [00:01] anyway here know why do i keep getting notification icon in the upper right corner that "the update information is outdated" despite even when running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade all is good ? [00:01] the most advanced and versatile penetration testing distribution ever created [00:02] laspahr: I had to look it up, not familiar w that distro [00:02] when [00:02] congo76: what do you mean? [00:03] any clue how to stop all the side notifications from pidgin about facebook friends going online? [00:03] ddbbcc, well never heard of it but ok...usually pen testers have custom suite of scripts/binaries to run against their target === Guest45923 is now known as gliderglidar [00:03] laspahr: you asked what it was, i looked it up on the net cause i didn't know either [00:03] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTAx9hFbBxk&list=UUdMWRr3LoOPDbTmnH_go_3Q [00:04] congo76: ah, okay! I just found it on google heh [00:04] Regarding AMD Graphics drivers, should I use fglrx or fglrx-updates? And why? [00:04] laspahr: doesn't look like something i would use or need [00:04] Aaraigathor, unless you're gaming you shouldn't use fglxr at all for now [00:05] why does software upgrade gui ignore packages I have set to hold with apt-mark hold linux-image-3.13.0-30-generic ? [00:05] congo76: yeah, I don't do pen testing heh.. I'm good with ubuntu [00:05] racho: I am gaming, and the open source drivers loads windows very slow. Even just the browser is slow [00:05] anyway here get update notification on 14.04 that don't actually update anything ? === ryan_461 is now known as ryan_46 [00:05] maybe try out a few different distros like mint but idk [00:06] Who is curious on pen testing? I'm experienced [00:07] Aaraigathor, that's not the open source drivers..that's just compiz...but if you're gaming take a look at the difference between the two packages (i don't run ubuntu since 12.04 so i don't know the changelogs there ) [00:07] laspahr: i used to jump around on distros, got tired an just picked ubuntu [00:07] no GUI is da way to go [00:07] zubir: right, right [00:07] racho: Okay, thank you [00:08] AMD Graphics drivers, fglrx or fglrx-updates? Anyone know the difference? [00:08] fglrx [00:08] congo76: yeah, ubuntu is just what I had been used to. zubir how are you on irc if you don't have GUI? [00:09] ubuntu 14.04 - where are /ttyUSB* ? [00:09] renebarbosa: Why not the *-updates? [00:09] and if you're using hybrid graphics, also install the package fglrx-pxpress [00:09] renebarbosa: I am used a dedicated HD5670 [00:10] Hi, Does anybody know how can I send emails with attachments from terminal? [00:10] Aaraigathor, i may be wrong but that package is used for newer fglrx drivers coming to Ubuntu [00:10] so they can be unstable or with incompatibilities [00:10] i always used the fglrx one [00:11] renebarbosa: Thank you, I'll just go with fglrx then :) [00:11] i would like to use only the open source radeon thing [00:11] but it never worked here :/ [00:11] I had issues with it too [00:12] my Xorg just dies if I try to use it [00:12] what's the best distro for a touchscreen laptop? /: I wanna make use of the touchscreen but Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't work (at least fully) [00:12] laspahr, Ubuntu should be work fine [00:12] did you tried to tweak something? [00:12] Hi, Does anybody know how can I send emails with attachments from terminal? [00:12] i have friends using Ubuntu with touchscreen displays without issues [00:13] heh.. tried to install ubuntu-touch but that ended up making me reinstall ubuntu completely [00:13] I'm having another issue right now... and I'm assuming it's not good. I deleted my Xorg.conf and the Xorg.conf.backup I thought I could get it to just re-create itself but no luck after a reboot? [00:13] I can't scroll pages, it just selects the text, I want something more tablet-like [00:13] but still with all the power of a PC [00:13] Aaraigathor, check the aticonfig command [00:13] congo76: laspahr: I used to load distros under my desk at work for relaxation. The main ones were Fedora, then RedHat, then Ubuntu. Not because I got tired, but because it has (had?) the best combo of being quick to get running, really good IRC support, wide platform support & 3rd party apps. I don't know how much longer that will all be true though... [00:13] aticonfig --initial -f [00:13] just throw that into terminal? [00:13] try it [00:14] Will do [00:14] it will create a new default xorg.conf file [00:14] Aaraigathor: nothing to lose by trying it... [00:15] Hi, Does anybody know how can I send emails with attachments from terminal? [00:15] Mojtaba, search for sendEmail script [00:15] renebarbosa: Looks like it fixed it! Although, under the device section it doesn't have the proper details for my card. Looks like it detects the fglrx and that it's ATI/AMD though [00:16] Anyone able to help me with a BIOS question? [00:16] renebarbosa: thx [00:16] DVST8ION: I can try [00:16] Lonshki: I tried Fedora for a while too, think i went to Mandrake and then Mandriva after that [00:17] Aaraigathor, it's right. fglrx is the proprietary driver for ATI/AMD cards. [00:17] Mojtaba, you're welcome [00:17] I installed a second hard drive in my laptop (asus G73SW) and was dual ooting Mac OSX and somehow I renamed that hard drive in the BIOS (i think) to MacOSX and now cant find where to change it back to the hard drive name [00:19] DVST8ION: Where does it show that the HDD is labelled that? In the BIOS itself or in the OS? [00:19] when i hit ESC to get the boot options and in the BIOS [00:19] Lonshki: then i bought an imac in 2009 and neglected linux for a few years [00:19] DVST8ION: What is the drive listed as in the OS? [00:20] Local Disk [00:21] DVST8ION: Is the Max OSX the primary boot partition? or secondary? [00:21] <_zoggy_> W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com trusty-security Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5 NO_PUBKEY 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32 [00:21] secondary [00:22] DVST8ION: And the primary is Ubuntu? [00:22] well windows for now, [00:23] playing around with ubuntu live usb and going to install but it is bugging me that the hard drive says macosx [00:23] DVST8ION: What brand is the drive? [00:24] so i think its in the bios due to the format of the drive and it still says it [00:24] seagate [00:25] even in device manager it says the drive model number not MacOSX [00:28] DVST8ION: Okay, so the truth is that the firmware for the drive is what stores the name/label data. You can however label it in the OS and it can sometimes use that label to be detected in the BIOS and similar. I highly doubt the Mac OS was able to change the drive firmware to label itself. My suggestion would be to log into your windows OS, use a disk manager (not sure if the default device/disk manager can do this) and manually [00:29] DVST8ION: If the default disk manager cannot, or if you cannot find another able to, then try booting your Ubuntu Live and using gparted to relabel the volume. === linuxuz3r is now known as jazzmac [00:30] _zoggy_: you need to install GPG Key(s) -> gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 40976EAF437D05B5 , gpg --export --armor 40976EAF437D05B5 | sudo apt-key add - <- . (the end dash is required). [00:30] DVST8ION: You'll need to be sure that if you go the gparted way you unmount the drives before you can relabel them === User3 is now known as Muchacha [00:33] Someone was asking about Pentesting earlier, still need any help? I only caught part of it [00:34] Is someone going to take the free course "Introduction to Linux" on edX? [00:34] Muchacha, it is called man pages ;) [00:34] lol [00:35] racho: is that a joke? [00:35] DVST8ION: I've just seen your original question. The reason you see "MacOSX" in the UEFI boot menu is because that was the title you assigned to the UEFI boot-manager entry for OSX. However, the cause of Ubuntu labelling a 'hard drive' as "MACOSX" is not the UEFI boot entry, but because a/the file-system contained on that particular drive has a file-system label attached. A single hard drive can contain many file-systems and in that case, Ubuntu GUI file-manager [00:35] will show disk icons with the file-system labels for each [00:35] Muchacha, no...if you invest enough time you'll see that man pages actually teach more than every Linux course [00:36] the only problem is that they lack examples...curse you BSDs and your examples [00:37] I'm running a RAID0 array for my Ubuntu 14.04 installation, but I forgot to make my swap as RAID0 so I have 2 seperate swap partitions, 1 on each drive, and they are detected as priority 1 and 2. Is there any way to go back and turn those swaps into RAID0 without a reinstall of the entire OS? [00:38] racho: allright, thank you for the tip, but I think the course will give me solid intro to Linux, from there, I hope to expand my knowledge with man pages [00:38] Aaraigathor: RAID0 ... striped? or do you mean RAID1 mirrored? [00:39] Muchacha, by all means take it..it will be good and it will give you a solid foundation in Linux...if you want more man pages and mailing lists :) [00:39] TJ-: striped [00:39] Guys I'm thinking about switching to Ubuntu, and the only thing that has been stopping me in the past few years is Altium Designer that I use for work. I tried running it in Wine but it doesn't work for some reason. Is there a way to make it work with Wine under Ubuntu? [00:40] What is Altium? There likely is a linux version or alternative [00:40] Aaraigathor: You can "swapoff" and then create the RAID0 device, then "swapon"... ensuring you correct the references in "/etc/crypttab" and "/etc/fstab" as necessary. [00:40] Aaraigathor, RAID0 is practically useless..you can achieve the same "data safety" with btrfs fs and snapshots... [00:40] does somebody recognize this sentiment? people seeing you as a hacker when starting command line in the public. [00:40] <[conrad]> Hello everyone. Is it possible to override the maximize button in the window control so you can define the resolution you'd like when hitting maximize, or, if that is not possible, have it so that a new button is available that I could use to accomplish the same thing? [00:41] racho: I believe you are referring to RAID1 [00:41] TJ-: Is there an easy way to correct those references? [00:42] Aaraigathor, not really [00:42] sudo apt-get install porn [00:42] exit [00:42] exit [00:42] exit [00:42] doesn't work [00:42] lol [00:42] Aaraigathor: edit the files to point to the MD device rather than the raw SATA/SCSI device [00:44] TJ-: Which files need to be edited? I'm still learning the more indepth side of linux, I've got the basics down but that is a little beyond me. I understand what an MD device is and their labels, and that I would need to re-reference to them. But what files and where? Sorry =/ [00:44] Aaraigathor: Altium is tool for electronics engineering. Making schematics, pcbs and etc. Linux alternatives for Altimum are really bad and can't even compare to the Altium... [00:45] CK__: So like, AutoCAD? Or Corel Draw? or am I totally off [00:45] Aaraigathor: Something like that, it's a CAD but not like those two. Google for Altium Designer and you will see. [00:45] I am running Xubuntu 14.04 on an Asus Eeepc. How do I use my camera? Do I need to download software for it? What is the best software for that? [00:46] CK__: if wine won't work, you can consider virtualbox... [00:46] CK__: I have a close friend who is an electrical engineer and I know he uses linux a lot so I'm assuming he must use a linux based program for those sorts of things. I'll give him a call right now [00:46] Aaraigathor: first, check if there are any swaps in action "cat /proc/swaps". If so, and they are on those devices, stop them with "sudo swapoff -a" [00:47] How can I get PostgreSQL 9.1 to run in Ubuntu 12.04? [00:47] 14.04 [00:47] Aaraigathor: I know about Eagle and other two softwares that work for linux but they are not even close to Altium. Also I already have way too much stuff pre-made for Altium that it would take me a year to convert all of that stuff back to Eagle or KiCad or any other software... [00:48] Loshki: Wouldn't running it in VB make program run really slow or use way too much resources? I don't know so I'm asking... :) [00:48] CK__: Okay, unfortunately I don't know then. My friend isn't at his phone right now either. Hopefully someone else can give you a hand [00:48] Aaraigathor: Now, create the MD array by identifying the device names of the raw devices and then using "sudo mdadm --create /dev/mdX --raid-level=0 --metadata=1.0 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdX /dev/sdY". Replace "/dev/mdX" and "/dev/sdX /dev/sdY" as appropriate. "mdX" should not clash with any existing MD. You can check what is there already with "cat /proc/mdstat" [00:49] TJ-: Is there a gui I can use for this? for creating the MD array? [00:49] Aaraigathor: Argggghhh no! [00:50] Aaraigathor: GUIs are useless for this [00:50] Aaraigathor: Ok. Thanks anyway... So if Wine doesn't do the trick, I'm left with virtual box which is basicly the same thing as me rebooting the system to win just to do some work in Altium :\ [00:50] CK__: yes it would. I think there's a 4 or 5x performance penalty. That mattered more when people didn't have multiple cores and tens of gigabytes of memory available to throw at the problem... [00:50] Aaraigathor, http://michal.karzynski.pl/blog/2009/11/18/mdadm-gui-via-webmin/ [00:51] Darn it... so I guess I will be stuck with windows and multiboot for some time until I find a way to run it under ubuntu... :\ [00:51] CK__: the big difference is virtualbox runs in a window, so you have windows running *simultaneously* side-by-side with Ubuntu. Like I say, if you have the iron, it works really well... [00:51] Thanks anyways guys [00:53] Loshki: I know but Altium uses enough resources as it is at the moment, especially when rendering 3d preview of the circuit boards so running it in virtual box would make it even worse... and probably unstable too... :\ [00:53] CK__: virtualbox is free & easy to install. You might want to experiment with it. Another possibility is to do the reverse: run windows on the hardware, and ubuntu under virtualbox under windows, if you see what I mean. [00:54] TJ-: Haha okay so I've disabled the swaps. Can you explain to me what the "--metadata" tag means? [00:54] hello i recently install nvidia drivers (using .run file from nvidia site) so when reboot login screen is not showed, so i try to get any log from tty2... no clues [00:54] any hint to get the error ? [00:54] i check Xorg log [00:55] Aaraigathor: "man mdadm" then "/--metadata=" [00:55] CK__: I wouldn't run anything that would be CPU intensive in virtualbox. It just isn't meant for that unless you have enough memory and cpu cores you can give the virtual machine. [00:56] Yea I see the problem there. I hope I will find some tutorial to run Altum under Ubuntu and I hope it works... otherwise I'm screwed... :\ [00:56] THank you guys for your help! [00:58] TJ-: So, after that I create the array, what is my next step? === patrick_ is now known as patrick__ [01:04] Aaraigathor: if it is active (check with "cat /proc/mdstat") make it into a swap device with "sudo mkswap /dev/mdX" [01:05] TJ-: Done! === chris_ is now known as ChristopherM [01:08] When I ssh into my ubuntu box I get a message about my current Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) going out of support soon and that I should upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS via sudo do-release-upgrade [01:08] when i try that, it says no new release found [01:10] Aaraigathor: now you need to ensure the reference to the swap partition in "/etc/fstab" now points to the MD device [01:10] Aaraigathor: it is possible the current reference is to a cryptswap device, in which case you can leave fstab alone and instead edit "/etc/crypttab" [01:11] TJ-: How can I tell if it is referenced to a cryptswap device? [01:12] Aaraigathor: because you'll see a line mentioning swap [01:12] Aaraigathor: something like "cryptswap1 /dev/sda4 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256" [01:14] TJ-: Okay, in which case I would just need to ensure that /etc/cryptswap is referencing to the right md device? [01:14] Aaraigathor: that entry will be in "/etc/cryptswap" by the way... the place you need to edit [01:14] Aaraigathor: correct [01:14] TJ-: Perfect. There isn't anywhere else I would need to edit? [01:14] Aaraigathor: correction, ... will be in "/etc/crypttab" [01:14] Aaraigathor: no, that is it [01:16] TJ-: Do I edit crypttab or cryptswap? [01:18] !eol | RainMan28 [01:18] RainMan28: 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 [01:18] Aaraigathor: "/etc/crypttab" ... the other file doesn't exist, that was my typo [01:19] I'm on 12.04 LTS and getting a warning about upgrading to 14.04 whenever I ssh into my box. When I try doing sudo do-release-upgrade as suggested, it tells me "No new release found" [01:19] Jeffrey_f: that article seems really outdated [01:19] I'm on 12.04 LTS [01:19] RainMan28: did you do sudo apt-get update first? [01:20] yes [01:20] TJ-: Thank you very much! Really appreciate your help [01:22] RainMan28: how about sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [01:22] Does anyone know how to get/install freshplayerplugin? To get the latest flash for firefox [01:22] RainMan28: I think the message you are seeing may be more than a little confusing. As I understand it, when 14.04.1 is released 12.04.4 is to be EOL because there will be an 12.04.5 based on 14.04.1 HWE... I think you just need to upgrade the HWE [01:22] RainMan28: 14.04.1 isn't scheduled until July 24th, which is when the upgrade from 12.04 will appear [01:23] thanks guys [01:23] RainMan28: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#A12.04.5_.2B-_14.04_Hardware_Enablement_Stack_Policies_and_Procedures [01:23] I saw the message about support ending on August 7th, 2014 and got SCURRED [01:24] ok should I run this then: sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-trusty libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-trusty xserver-xorg-lts-trusty linux-image-generic-lts-trusty [01:24] or just wait until July 24th?

Ideally it would be something Ubuntu-specific. And of course there is a channel which is devoted only to python which might be better to ask in [01:52] genii, i have windows 8 laptop on toshiba [01:52] ( which would be #python of course ) [01:52] genii, do i need to partition the drive to install ubuntu? [01:52] or? [01:53] and i just download or with cd? [01:53] patrick__: If you run the Ubuntu installer it will guide you through repartioning the hard drive [01:53] ok === charles_ is now known as Guest56013 [01:53] and it will make a dual boot? [01:53] yes [01:53] patrick__: back up all of your data first as a precaution. [01:54] patrick__: Usually, just make a bootable DVD or USB stick and boot to that, and it will guide you through the installation, including installing Grub for dual booting and repartioning [01:54] phunyguy, ok === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [02:23] #coscup [02:27] my log /var/logs/suphp [02:27] [Sat Jul 19 23:25:41 2014] [warn] File "/var/www/webmail/index.php" is not in document root of Vhost "/var/www/agenciazig.com.br/web" [02:27] how could I solve this problem? [02:32] For a sub interface on a NIC (ie, eth0:1, eth0:5) do they all need to be on the same subnet? Or can I have eth0:1 be 192.168.1.0 and eth0:2 be 10.10.0.0 ? [02:41] Freeder: you can have two interfaces on two networks. why though? [02:44] hey all === notzopsi is now known as zopsi [02:45] Freeder: alias interfaces are deprecated although you can do that. You should use iproute2 to add multiple ip addresses to an interface. See "man 8 ip-address" [02:45] Jeffrey_f: for some testing I'm doing. interfaces, yes- but subinterfaces is what I'm specifically asking, on the same NIC [02:45] TJ, i'll take a look, thank you [02:46] iproute2 doesnt seem to be standard? [02:46] i am using ubuntu 14.04, and because evince doesnt have the rotate option, i attempted to install adobe acrobat reader. as it is not available in the 14.04 repo, i went to the adobe website and downloaded the .deb file from them. i attempted to open it but nothing happens. when i attempt to open it in the terminal, this is the output i get: user@user-HP:~$ acroread [02:46] user@user-HP:~$ acroread [02:46] Freeder: It's been standard for a long time now [02:46] sorry i cant get it to paste [02:47] its two lines though [02:47] tab complete on ipr only gives me iproxy [02:47] Freeder: Did you read the man-page?

[02:57] /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared libraries" libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [02:57] TJ-: to stripe my 2 drives' swap partitions together... long story lol [02:57] Aaraigathor: OK, so you should do "--metadata=1.0" [02:57] TJ-, it says it is already the newest version [02:57] chaotix: OK... is acroread a 32-bit application? [02:58] TJ-: Why? [02:58] chaotix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1572606 [02:58] TJ-, yes.. there doesnt seem to be a 64bit one [02:58] thanks, Jeffrey_f [02:58] chaotix: Then it needs the 32-bit version of that package. Do "sudo apt-get install libxml2:i386" [02:58] you are all lifesavers [02:58] TJ-, ok i will try that now [02:59] Aaraigathor: did you read "man mdadm" "/--metadata=" ? [02:59] TJ-: Yes, not going to lie though, it didn't make a lot of sense to me [02:59] TJ-, that did it [02:59] :) [02:59] TJ-: My primary stripe is in 1.2 so I figured I should just do the same? [02:59] this is why linux is the best! [03:00] you are why liinux is the best! [03:00] Aaraigathor: if you look closely you'll see that metadata version 1.0 is stored at the *end* of the device whereas 1.2 stores it at the start. In some circumstances that could cause swap to overwrite the metadata (I'm thinking of hibernate/resume issues)... its a while since I last tested that scenario, but I always play safe by putting metadata at the end [03:01] Hello. DOes anyone know if ubuntu ppa servers are having issues again? [03:01] ubuntu 12.04 boot time issue [03:02] TJ-: Okay, so by the time you told me that, it was too late. I already successfully executed the command with 1.2 , is it too late to redo it? [03:02] 98% [waiting for headers] ?? [03:02] hello [03:03] any body there [03:03] is there a site I can check the status of ubuntu's ppa status? [03:03] Aaraigathor: you can "mdadm --stop /dev/mdX" and then "mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1" then redo it :) [03:03] TJ-: That'll completely revert my *ck up? lol [03:04] Ubuntu: Could someone please tell me if Ubuntu repository servers are having issues or not right now? [03:05] any help on ubuntu 12.04 boot issue === user__ is now known as dialectica [03:06] Thanks for the help guys! [03:06] thanks for that link showing me how to rotate in evince [03:06] and thanks, TJ- for helping me get acroread working [03:06] bye guys [03:07] TJ-: Being that I had already executed the first command (with 1.2), is that going to make any difference even if I redo it? Like, will it have any negative affect on the final outcome, even after redoing it as 1.0 ? [03:08] Aaraigathor: no... by zeroing the superblocks on the underlying devices, that ensures that another "mdadm --create" doesn't get stroppy about existing array members [03:09] Aaraigathor: that's a thought ...are you intending to be able to hibernate this system? [03:09] TJ-: No [03:09] Aaraigathor: OK - I was thinking that hibernation and RAID0 don't go together :) [03:10] TJ-: Haha thanks for the concern :) [03:10] with devilspie, how can you get it to focus the workspace you set the application to launch on? [03:11] I have (set_workspace 6) (focus) which doesn't seem to work [03:11] TJ-: I just ran "sudo mkswap /dev/md1" and got this: "mkswap: /dev/md1: warning: don't erase bootbits sectors on whole disk. Use -f to force. Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 3902460 KiB no label, UUID=95307473-b6e2-42aa-8d0c-ad1d72830532" What's with the warning? [03:11] tigrang, barev [03:12] patrick_, barev :) [03:15] TJ-: I just ran "sudo mkswap /dev/md1" and got this: "mkswap: /dev/md1: warning: don't erase bootbits sectors on whole disk. Use -f to force. Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 3902460 KiB no label, UUID=95307473-b6e2-42aa-8d0c-ad1d72830532" What's with the warning? [03:15] Hi [03:16] Howcome when I open the Dash, video playback in VLC/Totem becomes choppy? [03:16] Transparency is otherwise fine, e.g. gnome-terminal over VLC [03:16] I am using a macbook with ubuntu 14. I my appswitcher keeps coming up when I use my touchpad how do I fix it. [03:16] the alt tab appswitcher [03:19] TJ: still, ipr* only gives me iproxy, not iproute [03:19] is it perhaps ip route ? === Jeffrey_f is now known as jeffrey_f [03:19] Aaraigathor: because "mkswap" thinks you are writing to an entire raw disk, it is worried you may be over-writing the boot-loader sectors and files [03:20] Freeder: no, just "ip" [03:21] Freeder: "iproute{,2}" is the name of the source package. The binary tools are all keyed off "ip ", however in the later versions the man-pages are separated out into "ip-address" "ip-route" and so forth for each sub-command. It's rather like "lvm" [03:24] hey [03:24] TJ-: So it all went through good though? [03:25] yep, thanks. i interpreted iproute as the command, not a package name. [03:25] Aaraigathor: Yes, it did, it should have told you that "Setting up swapspace version ..." [03:25] TJ-: Okay, so now the only step left is to change fstab then? [03:26] Aaraigathor: if the swap is encrypted then you only need to change "/etc/crypttab" [03:27] TJ-: Not using encryption [03:28] Aaraigathor_: so the entry for swap in "/etc/fstab" points to a raw device, not a device-mapper name? [03:30] TJ-: This is what is in the field now: "UUID=1425a64d-6693-4858-bb76-3a5cb19bd91b none swap sw 0 0" which corresponds to the old location [03:30] TJ-: Do I just need to change the UUID to the MD1's? [03:31] Aaraigathor_: OK, it is using the swap partition's UUID... so you need to replace that with the new UUID. "sudo blkid -o value -s UUID" [03:31] Aaraigathor_: "sudo blkid -o value -s UUID /dev/mdX" === xubuntu is now known as Guest85004 [03:32] TJ-: That will give me the UUID then I can just drop it in that field? [03:33] Aaraigathor_: correct [03:35] TJ-: Okay, it's entered. Do I need to change any of the other fields? The one currently that has "none" has "/" under MD0 [03:35] Aaraigathor_: you can always do that kind of change automatically with something like "sudo sed -i 's/^\(UUID=\[^ \]\)/UUID='$(sudo blkid -o value -s UUID /dev/mdX)'/' /etc/fstab [03:36] Aaraigathor_: no, that's swap sorted out [03:36] Aaraigathor_: The line with "/" is the root file-system [03:37] TJ-: Okay, so to be sure. I leave it as "none"? and the only field under the old swap that I needed to change was the UUID to the new MD1? [03:38] Aaraigathor_: correct [03:39] TJ-: Okay, so what do I need to do after fstab is set? [03:42] This is going to be one of those nights, I think [03:43] Did someone say they were having issues with ubuntu servers? [03:43] Aaraigathor_: You're finished I think [03:43] TJ-: Okay, so what do I need to do after fstab is set? Do I just reboot and it'll be mounted automatically on bootup? Or do I need to enter something to have it mount as swap now? Currently "cat /proc/swaps" doesn't show anything [03:43] Freeder: I saw someone mention ppa's, I think they are long gone though [03:43] Aaraigathor_: do it now with "sudo swapon" [03:44] TJ-: Beautiful [03:45] installing 12.04 from a min install CD, and it halts (not freezes) after "Good signature from 'Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key " [03:45] TJ-: I owe you one. It would have taken me a week to figure this all out on my own [03:46] Aaraigathor_: you're welcome [03:46] Freeder: is that an LTS install? [03:47] yes [03:48] Network is connected [03:48] yes [03:49] its able to conncet to ubuntu (gets several keys/sigs, as implied above) [03:50] Which directory are services kept in? [03:50] meh, i can't select any other mirror but us.archive.ubuntu.com [03:50] nm [03:50] Freeder: why not? [03:51] Is there an Ubuntu equivalent for "/etc/rc.d/init.d/"? [03:51] Donald_ET3: for a path? [03:52] Yes. [03:52] Donald_ET3: does the path do anything in particular? [03:52] Freeder: how many times have you tried so far? [03:53] just did #4 (waiting about 5 mins on the screen to progress each time), this time I selected a .nl mirror instead of a .us mirror [03:53] same thing [03:53] reisio: I have a file which is supposed to be installed as a service. How do I do that? [03:53] It's a daemon [03:53] I mean [03:53] Donald_ET3: you probably want the init script in /etc/init.d/ [03:53] but [03:53] any reason for not going with 14.04 LTS? [03:53] it has to be a script that makes sense to Ubuntu's init system [03:53] jeffrey_f: as opposed to? [03:54] Donald_ET3: Alternately, look up how to use update-rc.d [03:54] Okay. [03:55] yes, I believe it doesnt support the graphics card [03:55] reisio, was directed at Freeder......as opposed to 12.04 LTS [03:55] Tried it earlier, several times [03:56] Freeder: you can mix and match kernels & graphics drivers with most any version of most any distro, FYI [03:56] this is an older machine. We can try 14.04 if you like, but I'm going to ask that you hang out and hold my hand some if we do :) [03:56] Freeder: That's what this channel is for at times :D [03:58] sometimes yes, sometimes no :P would you like me to throw in 14 and go that route? [03:59] Freeder: Honestly, *I* will not be on too much longer, however, there are many others on here that will be [04:01] then I'll revert back to this question- why is it halting?

Is there a way to do this in linux without relying on telephony technologies like skype or epiphany? [04:02] Freeder: Have you monitored the log files for indications of a problem? [04:03] TJ, this is an install... what logs are there? [04:04] Freeder: In the installer there may be some in "/var/log/" and in the target in "/target/var/log/" [04:04] there isnt a file system [04:06] I pulled the status window earlier, what I pasted is the last message it pasted- nothing on the screen suggests anything out of the ordinary [04:10] hi [04:10] !ask|novice [04:10] novice: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

I want to install java 7 [04:27] novice: You need to add the webupd8 ppa then, and then install it from there [04:27] icedtea! hoping to never have to see java webstart ever again! :-) [04:27] ok [04:28] ok, last question before I give up [04:28] The min install disk isnt bootable [04:28] what would cause that?

No issues between openjdk and oracle java, right? [04:37] !java | novice [04:37] novice: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.

[05:00] yes [05:01] and I'm 99% sure its due to the graphics card. I now know its fixable, but the fix requires changes in grub and initramfs [05:01] Freeder: There is an option to edit the installer boot menu before it start, can't recall the key to use off-hand though. I think it was F4 or F6 at one time [05:02] right, i can do that, but no clue how to translate settings in the grub and initramfs files to that command line [05:02] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1539055 [05:02] That details the changes I made that worked [05:03] any thoughts on what the commandline needs to look like would be appreciated [05:04] Freeder: which installer image are you booting from?

[05:10] genii: yes it is showing [05:10] Freeder: hang on, I'll boot it in a VM [05:10] are there any multiplayer games i can play with a friend remotely (via IP address/whatever) that i can install in ubuntu through the package manager?

[05:11] free games [05:11] tiger7117: Then they are both seen and working. Are they shown as being active or not? [05:11] like checkers, pong, some sort of tux racing, etc. [05:11] genii: how to check from command line that are they active or not ? .. ifconfig ? [05:12] Freeder: When the Desktop installer boots the first screen Offers "Try Ubuntu without installing", yes? [05:12] tiger7117: Yes, it should have a line like: UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 ...or similar [05:12] genii: yes [05:13] tiger7117: Do these connections need username and password? [05:13] tigrang, hey [05:14] genii: Nop its with out password only need to put in APN [05:14] Yes [05:14] Both that and Install Ubuntu crap out after that screen [05:15] but, i may have translated it [05:15] genii: which tool should i use for configuring it and also start at boot time ? [05:15] video=radeonfb vga=792 [05:15] I think thats what I need... I'm not positive, but I think I'm getting further with that than I have before [05:15] tiger7117: It often depends on the device. But generally either wvdial or pon/poff [05:16] pon/poff use by network manager ?.. btw network manager like in Desktop also work in command line ..? can create connections etc ? === amir_ is now known as Guest7650 [05:18] i meant ppp connections* [05:18] tiger7117: I think I would consult https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager/Hardware/3G#Mobile_Broadband_cards [05:18] nope, still the same thing, where the mouse flickers on/off [05:20] genii: it support, even it work with wvdial.. little issue.. when i do wvdial wwan0 then it connect but for second when i do wvdial wwan1 then it dont connect just try it.. when i shutdown ppp0 and then wvdial wwan1 then it connect but not again for wwan0… i create conf with the name of wwan0 and wwan1 in wvconfig.conf file [05:20] eclipse still crashes [05:20] Freeder: OK, when the installer initially boots there's a graphic at middle-bottom of the screen, looks like an asterisk and a keyboard... hold down Space at that point and you'll get a set of advanced options, the first being language selection [05:20] right, I've done that, and edited the command line already [05:21] added video-radeonfb and vga=792 [05:21] what else? [05:21] *video= [05:21] tiger7117: The usual behaviour for when there are multiple connections is that the last connection brought up is the default. [05:21] Freeder: OK, well that is the kernel command line you are editing... put the options *before* the final "--" ... you may want "nomodeset" to solve black-screen issues [05:22] tiger7117: I'm not sure if wvdial can be run in multiple instances [05:22] genii: then which tool do this thing ? [05:22] the issue isnt black screen on 14.04 (it was on a different one though) ... I get the orange/purple background that pops up, then it swaps to a black screen w/ the mouse arrow, and the entire screen keeps resetting [05:22] I can move the mouse, but on the next flash it resets to the center position again [05:23] tiger7117: It may be possible to make a wvdial config entry which uses both [05:23] Freeder: "nomodeset" may still help... I'd suggest trying that on its own before adding more complex video-driver changes [05:24] yes, I've added that as well [05:24] via f6 [05:24] genii: how ? [05:24] (and on its own did nothing)( [05:24] Freeder: You've got a very old video card there I think, so the open source drivers should handle it, but the Ubuntu live environment wants/expects 3D acceleration, and that will be very poor to non-existent for that video chipset [05:24] tiger7117: Unfortunately, I don't know offhand. Googling may be necessary [05:25] TJ-: I believe that. So how do I tell it not to look for that :) [05:25] Freeder: We used to have an "alternate" text-based installer image but that got dropped, just for this type of issue [05:25] I grabbed the min installer, but it doesnt seem to be reading as a bootable disk [05:25] Freeder use the mini ISO or server for text based installation [05:26] anyone else .. who know that how to make multiple ppp connections on one server at a time .. either from wvdial or nmcli command etc ? [05:26] tiger7117: The first thing I might try though is put two modem entries under the [Dialer Defaults] section in the wvdial.conf file [05:27] Freeder: I'd recommend you use the "server" ISO which uses the standard Debian text installer.... and then once the base system is installed and booted add in the desktop stuff, which can be done pretty effortlessly with "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" - HOWEVER ubuntu-desktop installs Unity, which requires 3D... so I'd recommend one of the "lighter" non-3D desktops instead, maybe xubuntu-desktop [05:27] I cant use server, this is a 32bit machine [05:27] I dont' want the GUI stuff anyway [05:27] !mini | Freeder [05:27] Freeder: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [05:28] cfhowlett: yep, and as I said, downloaded it, burned it, and it doesnt boot === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [05:28] genii: both same type of entries in one [Dialer Default] area ? === z_ is now known as Guest10121 [05:28] Freeder: There is an ubuntu server 32 bit image [05:29] Help, my LUbuntu suddenly started started scrolling a lot with a single scroll, this happenned after sometime starting 2 VM's of LUbuntu. [05:29] Freeder: You will find the 32bit server image here. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads [05:29] interetsing. thank you [05:29] wish that appeared on the main page! [05:30] tiger7117: Thats what i would first try, yes, one for wwan0 and one for wwan1 [05:30] tiger7117: They normally would be using some MLPPP login? [05:31] yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eclipse works now!! [05:31] I'm happy!! [05:31] novice: "D [05:31] Or even, :D [05:31] Thank you! [05:32] TIME TO PROGRAM!! [05:33] genii: MLPPP login means ?.. btw.. i had put same type of configurations under [Dialer Defaults] but now after # wvdial .. it has been connected as a PPP0 .. i think only by using only one Interface either WWAN0 or WWAN1 .. [05:33] tiger7117: An alternate thing I might try is to install the bonding driver, add both wwan devices to it, then use the bond0 in wvdial [05:34] hello guys, how do i launch unity's screen lock from command line? [05:34] tiger7117: In for instance normal operation under Windows, the modems both connect at once and you get twice the speed, and only one login for both modems? [05:37] genii: yes one login for both .. one modem is using /dev/TTYUSB3 and other /dev/TTYUSB4.. but wvdial is showing after hitting command # sudo wvdial that it chosen first one in Defaults or might be both.. dont know.. [05:37] but ppp0 is one [05:37] genii: tiger7117 if it helps you googling, this is a 'standard' feature for some ISDN lines and satellite connections. Using two lines to double bandwidth. [05:38] it is indeed called "bonding" [05:38] i used to have isdn back in the old days, we had 2x64K which could be bonded into a singel 128K at double the cost per minute [05:39] ROTK: how will i get to know that it is now currently using TTYUSB3 and TTYUSB4 ? in one PPP0 int ? [05:40] tiger7117: OK. So I think your ISP is using normally MLPPP under other OS. The way to do this in linux is like I said, bond together wwan0 and wwan1 and then use the bond0 device for wvdial [05:40] tiger7117: I dont know how to set it up under linux so can't really help you there, except confim that 'bonding' s what you want to research. But it looks like genii knows. [05:41] tiger7117: It is very late here, 1:40AM but I can help a little longer [05:41] hmmm.. come on genii :) [05:41] * genii makes more coffee [05:41] here its 7:41 AM .. didn't slept whole night :) [05:42] tiger7117: Let me go really make some coffee and have a smoke, and I'll return to help, ok? [05:42] i also stayed up late to watch the dota2 championships :P [05:42] genii. yea sure.. Thanks !! [05:42] i am here [05:42] tiger7117: OK, give me 5-7 minutes [05:43] genii: no problem. i will not deduct $ from your salary for this 5-7 mins :) [05:47] i have a camera connected directely to the router. i would like to know it's IP. how to scan ips in my local network using the terminal? [05:50] tiger7117: Back. Firstly, install the bonding driver: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get instal ifenslave [05:50] Put two l at the end of install, not one like I just typoed, however. [05:51] * genii sips his coffee [05:52] hmm.. but one more thing after this bonding will it setup new connection ppp0 and ppp1 separately or in one ppp0 as a bond ? [05:52] owen1, nmap 192.168.1.1-255 or whatever iprange is [05:52] tiger7117: It will be only ppp0 but use both adapters at once for the single ppp connection [05:53] tiger7117: Next step: echo "bonding" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules [05:55] after that ? [05:55] tiger7117: After this step, please pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces for instpection so I can see what to change there [05:56] tiger7117: You know how to use pastebinit already? [05:56] genii: is 'bonding' the same as 'balancing'? [05:57] MoonSlime: It can sometimes be referred to in that way, but they are actually different things [05:58] hmm. its live server.. so :) btw in /etc/network/interfaces, its showing only Eth0 Static Add [05:59] so how will bond IPs of wwan0 and wwan1.. if we don't know its IP, becoz it dynamically assigned so ? [06:00] tiger7117: The bond0 device will have a single IP but use both devices underneath [06:01] tiger7117: OK, so only eth0 there. Let me write a small file to add into the interfaces file, give me a minute or two here [06:01] genii: thanks for clearing that up, following the conversation as this is of interest to me too. === chamunks is now known as zz_chamunks [06:03] Does anybody know how can I send emails using terminal? (It is gmail) I want to put the password and username in the command. (I want to send attachment) [06:04] mojtaba: type "firefox" on the terminal, head to gmail.com and send your email with attachment? [06:05] Ben64: I want to have a script and put it in a computer. [06:05] you're not going to find any easy way to do that [06:05] Ben64: something like mail -p password -u user -a attachment -to email_address [06:06] tiger7117: So add to the interfaces file this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7823333/ [06:06] mojtaba: how about "mailx" ? [06:06] tiger7117: And then make the wvdial.conf default modem /dev/bond0 [06:06] TJ-: Is it possible to send attachment with it? [06:06] mojtaba: use Mutt tool.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MuttAndGmail [06:07] tiger7117: Getting more coffee, back shortly [06:07] mojtaba: Yes. See "man mailx" [06:07] tiger7117: I do not want to put configuration in a separate file. I want to put it in the script [06:08] TJ-: In using mailx, you need to know the name of the random directory in firefox directory. (I do not know that, as I am going to use same script on many computers) [06:09] gennii: i was thinking that why not use wvdial + pppconfig/pppconf for other ppp1 connection ? [06:10] mojtaba: how do you mean? what has firefox got to do with mailx? [06:10] tiger7117: The idea begind bonding is that both wwan appear as a single device to the computer. So there is no ppp1, just ppp0 [06:11] TJ-: It has this -S nss-config-dir=~/.mozilla/firefox/kss7zqgb.default [06:11] tiger7117: At any rate... I purposely set for now the mode to use only the first wwan and to fall back to wwan1 if wwan0 fails. But after we set the bonding up working, we can fiddle with the mode to see what your ISP supports [06:13] tiger7117: Please let me know when you have made the changes to interfaces file and to wvdial.conf and we can continue :) [06:15] mojtaba: read the firefox profiles.ini and parse the default profile... although you cannot guarantee the user is actually using the default profile [06:15] ROTK: 32bit server fixed my problems. Thank you again. [06:15] and TJ as well, for the attempts :) [06:15] have a good night [06:16] TJ-: Is there any safer method? [06:16] mojtaba: for what? [06:16] hmm.. its some thing like automatic of # sudo wvdial wwan0 … >> if don't connect then >> # sudo wvdial wwan1 .. by default in bond it will use wwan0 or connect it ..but i want that give two command in different terminal #sudo wvdial wwan0 and #sudo wvdial wwan1 .. both start to pick IP and working with PPP0 and PPP1.. :) [06:16] TJ-: for sending emails via terminal [06:16] this bond thing is not attracting me... [06:16] mojtaba: I'm totally unclear on what you're actually trying to do... you started simply asking about a command-line mail-sending tool [06:17] mojtaba: so what has firefox got to do with it? [06:17] TJ-: I have find a sample using mailx, and there was -S nss-config-dir=~/.mozilla/firefox/kss7zqgb.default (I changed the last one with my profile in firefox) [06:18] mojtaba: "man mailx" and look up "-S" [06:18] tiger7117: Bonding driver has many different modes. The mode you are describing is one one. Other modes it can do combine the bandwidth of both adapters in a few different ways depending on what your ISP supports on their end. [06:18] TJ-: ok, thanks [06:19] tiger7117: As I already said, the mode I put first FOR NOW is the fallback mode, until we test. After that, we change the mode to combine the bandwidth [06:19] I've installed numix-gtk-theme from PPA, but why can't I select it in Appearance?

[09:19] mikhael_keehl: Just after BIOS try hitting the Shift key and try booting some older kernel. [09:20] ballock: I wonder what triggered this error, [09:20] The only thing that comes to my mind in such a scenario is that either there's been a kernel update with a regression bug [09:21] or something broke in the hardware that's not just yet visible in Windows [09:21] Nickd55345353: In comparing it to Windows.......It would be like comparing an open field (windows) to a small bunker (Linux) [09:21] i mean [09:21] mikhael_keehl: For backing up the data you can try running the GUI installer [09:22] of all the oses that exist [09:22] linux is the safest right? [09:22] i have an argument with a friend [09:22] mikhael_keehl: if the installer does not boot, that's probably hardware [09:22] ballock: okay [09:22] (as it booted when you installed it) [09:23] ballock: I gues it has something to do with the kernel [09:23] otherwise, back up your data first :) [09:23] and then you can try swapping the kernel in some smart way :) [09:24] ballock: I tried selecting the "Advanced options for Ubuntu" then selecting a older kernel version, it booted just fine [09:24] coreyfarrell: Why would you like to change the behaviour?

However, Linux, by default, is safer than most OS's that try to keep a balance of user friendly and security. You REALLY have to put an effort into borking a Linux install. As an example: my kids, on 2 systems, crashed windows about 5 times in as many months........I have only one of the same systems (one bit a lightning bolt) now running Linux and HAS BEEN since 2007 and it is STILL ok [09:25] mikhael_keehl: try sorting out which version introduced the bug [09:25] omg [09:25] and mention that in the bug report [09:26] thats awesome [09:26] linux rocks [09:26] i dont understand why its free [09:26] ballock: I'll do that.

[09:56] USB Legacy support is enabled, if I disable it, the keyboard is also not working in grub [09:56] Win7?? [09:56] Jeffrey_f, yes [09:58] Windows 7 had an issue with any other OS's dual booting. I'm thinking it was something M$ did to prevent competition at some point. I remember trying it at one point and ending up just blowing away Win7 for good [10:00] I have win7 + ubuntu working on a different machine, so I dont think this is a general issue [10:01] just my experience. Did you reset your BIOS to factory default?? [10:01] Jeffrey_f, no, the computer is 1 day old, I dont think this will change anything? [10:02] Question: ARM support only availbale through crouton. Yes/No? [10:02] Usually a funtion key to reset then a function key to save......just in case something was changed [10:06] Jeffrey_f, if I boot windows the keyboard/mouse does not work. When I unplug them and plug them in again, they work again. [10:07] Now they also work when I reboot.. So the issue is fixed by unpluggin them and plugin them back in [10:08] This is strange. [10:10] maybe the system is resetting the USB port during some point of the boot, but the device is not resetting and losing contact with the system?? [10:17] hi, if I install a package "manually" (download a .deb file from the net and install it), should that program be visible in "software center" after installation, so that I can uninstall it if I want to?

[13:19] ikonia, grub has now took the part of what the BIOS has done before, it tells where and what to load [13:19] foofoobar_: no it has not [13:19] ikonia, maybe grub is telling the windows bootloader wrong data?

[13:51] that's up to you then, if you want to use unsupported/security risk software, that's up to you [13:52] i'll do it, but tonight :) [13:53] Kevln: You could change your repo to point to a supported version, install proftp, then change it back [13:53] that would be very bad [13:53] as it would cause problems with dependnecies and break your system [13:53] Kevln: it might be alright as long as you don't do an upgrade or anything [13:53] it would not be alright [13:53] You should do a dry run first and post it here [13:53] it would be a very very bad solution [13:53] and I strongly recommend you disgard it [13:54] discard [13:54] Yes but it would work, and if he's intending to reinstall tonight and needs an emergency fix [13:54] no it would not work [13:54] or it would break everything [13:54] it is an unccaptable solution [13:54] using an archive repo and acceptating the risk, or upgrading are the only two options [13:54] It's very much a macgyver solution, I'll admit. [13:54] no it is not a solution [13:54] no, macguyver tends to do things that work [13:54] you are creating a problem/breakage [13:55] it is not a solution of any sort [13:55] You would have to manually install debs from archive repositories. I assume it doesn't have that many dependencies, so doing it that way is probably better [13:55] no you would not [13:56] it is an uccaptable solution [13:56] please stop trying to justify it [13:56] I'm saying yours is better [13:56] yours is not a solution [13:56] OK [13:56] it creates damage [13:57] I've done it in the past for specific cases, and as long as you are aware of exactly which package versions you are installing, it can be fine. You could also create a PPA [13:57] Rory: please stop trying to justify it - it is NOT solution [13:57] keep your locked versions in there, once you've worked out the dependencies [13:57] that is all terrible advice [13:57] Rory: last warning - stop trying to justify a dangerous suggestion [13:58] Fine.

The operating system does not seem to support the camera out of the box so I had to do a little research; it seems that I had to create this file "/etc/modprobe.d/uvcvideo.conf" and add this line to the file "options uvcvideo nodrop=1". I also had to plug the camera in to a USB 2.0 as it fails to work with USB 3.0. Finally I have to load this module "uvcvideo".

[17:21] It's strange, when this happens it's always right after or as it's getting translations from the main launchpad server...I see this from time to time, it eventually clears up, but it always seems like it's on launchpad's side. [17:22] actually, it may be steam, not launchpad...checking [17:23] yup, nevermind, GTB3NW, looks like it's steam's repo: W:Failed to fetch http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/dists/precise/steam/i18n/Translation-en Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection [IP: 23.62.97.145 80] [17:23] !out-of-patience [17:23] , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [17:24] Capprentice, contact the ppa owner, webupd8? === makebelieve is now known as klixa-textual [17:25] OerHeks, They cant do a thing :( ! The upstream version does not have vidalia control panel anymore ! I can only try to find a deb version below :3.x.x! [17:26] Capprentice, all they have to do is a few clicks, to build and make it available [17:27] hey everyone [17:28] I would need some help with apt-get install -y . I would like to automate installation of several services but during install it pops-up some questions on CLI in gui fashion and i cannot seem to pass any input to these questions [17:30] What services do you mean ? [17:31] apt-get install -y icinga-idoutils [17:32] And what questions is poping up ? [17:33] well [17:34] for started which database should I use [17:34] like mysql or postgresql etc [17:37] Have you read this webpage ? https://wiki.icinga.org/display/howtos/Setting+up+Icinga+with+IDOUtils+on+Ubuntu [17:38] thats the page that I am trying to automate [17:38] anyone know if there are directions around for moving from one old LTS release to the newest one? [17:39] What do you mean automate ? Why do you need to automate it ? [17:40] well for testing purposes i want to re-instal several times [17:41] Is there a common way to add pidfile functionality to a daemon outside of the daemon's code itself? `start-stop-daemon --make-pidfile` is really promising except that it doesn't remove the pidfile when the daemon terminates. [17:42] I just want to use monit (which requires pidfiles) without making a little wrapper script for everything [17:42] Have no qlue, sorry. Perhaps others on this channel have an answer. [17:43] psilo2 you could great a cript that checks for process in ps -ef [17:43] create [17:44] Bitvilag: yeah, just trying to avoid recreating that for the 100th time :) [17:44] I'm sure tools like `start-stop-daemon` account for edge cases my script wouldn't [17:44] makes sense:d [17:46] Hello all. Can anyone help me find out why my iptables have rules in them that I did not add? [17:46] thanks 4 the help [17:46] bye [17:46] rAnDoM-gUy: running ufw or any other firewall managers? [17:47] rAnDoM-gUy: the rules themselves could be a hint to what added them. [17:49] rAnDoM-gUy: There's a shotgun method to look for conf files that possibly contain iptables rules, such files paths and names would likely help identify the owning package, especially if the rules match what is live in netfilters: "sudo grep -rn INPUT /etc/*" [17:51] #ubuntu-es === tristan_ is now known as Guest88347 [17:52] Hello, Wondering what the term line is to check for updates or to update..updates? [17:53] sudo apt-get update [17:53] sudo apt-get upgrade *installes updates [17:53] I thought so! Sheesh need to stop second guessing myself or I'll never learn properly... [17:53] hehe :) [17:54] upgrade is missleading to me. [17:54] anyone in here using gluster fs? if so, would you suggest using it? [17:55] May I ask what the G stands for and also what FS stands for..though I think I know the latter. [17:55] Shadow}}: i have no idea... fs stands for filesystem though [17:55] !u [17:55] rAnDoM-gUy: note, usind "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" installs ALL available updates, where "sudo apt-get upgrade" does not... just fyi [17:55] Shortened English is difficult for some non-native English speakers to read. Please use full words instead. Thanks! [17:56] xangua: gluster fs is the name of the product........ [17:56] Thought so just checking. Sick, So Learning hasn't been going well. Least not stickin. [17:56] it's not "shortened english" [17:56] o_O [17:56] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlusterFS [17:56] Shadow}}, good or bad, I run "apt-get update -y && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y && apt-get autoremove -y" once a day [17:57] o.O! [17:57] What does the "-y" cause? [17:57] answers yes at prompt [17:57] instead of the yes/no prompt at each [17:57] Ahh. So I take it that just auto goes through what I'm now doing manually? [17:57] yep [17:57] "Manually."* [17:58] -y is fine on your desktop I guess. Careful doing that where reliability is important. [17:58] I should probably just add it as a cron job but I like to see whats being changed [17:59] MavKen, Interesting, you're running as root. [17:59] So can anyone tell me why my puppy linux RAM portable drive OS can "buffer streaming videos" at least twenty times faster than this Xubuntu? I feel as though I could change that... [17:59] Hey do you have an old version of Vidalia bundle avaiable which you can send to me? I can not find any old archives for Tor Browser Bundle!!! It seems all possible places are cleared out -____- ! [17:59] yeah, on my server I run as root but on laptop go sudo -s first [18:00] Even biiblio? However thats spelled.. [18:00] Why does ubuntu ship with 2 android drivers running by defualt? Ashmen and Binder? [18:00] s/Ashmen/ashmem [18:00] Capprentice, Probably somewhere on a torrent. Why do you want old vidalia? [18:01] Shadow}}, I just moved to xubuntu on my laptop... I love it... much better than unity, may move my desktop to xubuntu too [18:01] Why does IE10 have built-in whitelists and blacklists to stop me from watching streaming Flash videos? The answer is, Don't ask microsoft cause they said I was looking at malware.... Idiots.. [18:02] Yep I deleted my windows 7 two weeks ago. So tired of them forcing me to upgrade to a new os every year. [18:02] microsoft is stupid...win 8 caused me to install ubuntu/xubuntu on my computers [18:02] msdaisy, I want the Vidalia Control Panel, which is not a part of the newer browser bundle anymore! The TOR developers removed the Control Panel from the newer version :((( ! [18:02] And Firefox 31! UI is stupid! [18:03] rAnDoM-gUy: So now you've got Ubuntu and have to upgrade to a new release very 6 months instead :) [18:03] Force upgrade? They just told me mine wasn't Genuine. As if Windows was Genuine to begin with, Point is it couldn't of known that. >-> So now I have to learn Linux, Luckily I started that months back and got well enough to use it basically.. [18:03] Capprentice, you realize that if you use an old TBB you won't be private. It will probably have heartbleed bug amongst others in it. [18:04] Capprentice: i believe there is a tor channel on OFTC irc network, perhaps asking there will shed some light? (i was under, the perhaps incorrect, impression Vidalia was discontinued?) [18:04] zykotick9, I will try that channel :D [18:04] Shadow}}, the only thing I miss from the switch is photoshop.... on reason I may fork out the money and get a mac one day [18:04] Shadow, by force I mean them stopping support for the os earlier and earlier. Windows 8 might have all of six months lol before windows 9. [18:05] lol [18:05] MavKen, get GIMP. [18:05] Free photoshop and more. [18:05] Sn0wden released a few documents containing the names and operatives of the programs used to do all the internet overt crap we notice. Tbh... I like the names. Such as Angry Pirate - Disables and Removes a Window's User Account regardless of current usage. [18:05] yeah, I havent got the hang of it yet, need to spend more time with it [18:05] ahh okay :) As long as you know about it. [18:05] Mavken: Never been on a Mac actually. o.o [18:07] had the 27" imac at old job with 16GB ram... I was spoiled [18:07] They taught me windows 90..something in 1st grade. So thats what I used up to last year and I formatted a toshiba 1TB portdrive designed for backup into PupLinux RAM only, Give or take on the ram. [18:07] msdaisy, Actually I just need a reliable proxy application which can proxify anything I'm doing on Internet! Actually my ISP is a bit over protective and very law abiding.., blocks most of the Video and Music Download Sites! and also some Social Networking sites. On linux Tor Browser seemed to me the best solution. [18:08] Capprentice, look into openvpn. [18:08] Capprentice, a vpn would be easier and faster imo [18:08] I use it with openbook. [18:09] rAnDoM-gUy, How to set that up on Ubuntu? [18:09] Is that free? [18:09] I couldn't get past creating my certificates for a VPN... I mean I created them then the term lines just confused me and I never figured it out. === roasted_ is now known as roasted [18:09] !openvpn [18:09] OpenVPN is a vpn technology in Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openvpn and then see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" noting you have already installed it. ;-) It rocks! [18:10] Actually, In retrospect I believe the lines were faulty. With breaks I noticed the other day pasting broke lines in succession worked just fine, But didn''t when I tried on Xubuntu 13.04 [18:10] I'm trying to have multiple desktops and monitor 1 shows workspace X and monitor 2 shows workspace Y. XMonad isn't working properly. Have any other suggestions? [18:11] Oh well, Looks like I'm off to reboot and see if Flash runs any quicker. Hmm..Need to save that update line from MavKen before I go. [18:11] you usin chromium? [18:12] remember to use sudo with it [18:12] I used instructions and bundled certificates for vpn book :) really easy to do. [18:12] Yup. I fanything I use sudo when I'm not supposed to really. Hah [18:12] Stop doing that! lol [18:13] Messes up permissions I found out the hard way. [18:13] Shadow}}, I did some of these when I installed xubuntu on my laptop - http://www.binarytides.com/better-xubuntu-14-04/ [18:13] No.! I believe, If I mess up its my fault and just redo the OS. Not like I have anything important on here. [18:13] Ahh okay ^_^ [18:14] I reinstall ubuntu/xubuntu every 3 weeks or so because i play around and its easier than trying to undo [18:14] Ooo. I was going to judge the entire thing based off if it included Synapse or not. It did, So I'll bookmark it. Thanks MavKen [18:15] np [18:15] Also, The only problem I've ran into with bleeding edge Synapse is if you leave the CPU on for vasts amounts of time it stops functioning and cannot be executed by a mere click. [18:16] By execute I actually meant kill. [18:17] Hmm... Is it "sudo service network-manager restart" or networking-manager? [18:18] For anyone needing IPTables for an L2TP over IPSec, I found them myself. Here is a copy: http://hastebin.com/ugavanobes.txt [18:18] I thought it was sudo service restart /blah/blah [18:18] Shadow}}: try "sudo service net" and see if it autocompletes [18:19] One of the two I just said worked fine, Though It wasn't what I wanted I don't believe. [18:19] I'm wanting the equilvilant of in windows cmd "IPconfig /release > Ipconfig /renew" [18:19] Shadow}}: "sudo ifdown ethX && sudo ifup ethX" [18:20] That releases and renews the IP? [18:21] Shadow}}: If the interface ethX is using DHCP yes [18:21] My ISP is about as safe as... My own computers. In fact they told me the other month "If you have a hacker problem you can't get rid of them" >_> [18:21] It is. Thank you very much [18:21] Shadow}}: when a DHCP interface comes up "dhclient ethX" is executed which handles the DHCP transaction [18:22] Least I'm 90% sure it is, Its auto done by my ISP. In a very poor manner and only once every 24 hours. [18:22] afternoon. Any of you able to assist with a Lenovo Yoga 2 11? Installed 14.04 yesterday, and everything works fine except screen brightness control [18:22] Shadow}}: If however the interface is managed by Network Manager, the command I gave you won't work. [18:23] Its Eth0, Direct to a router direct to the modem provided by the ISP. [18:24] Is there a way to check whats ..eh...controlling it? [18:24] *managing [18:24] Shadow}}: In that case you'd need to use the GUI NM-applet *or* do "nmcli con down id 'Connection Name' && nmcli con up 'Connection Name' " === jack is now known as Guest83719 [18:25] Shadow}}: The rule generally is, if "/etc/network/interfaces" has an entry for the interface ("iface ethX ...") then Network Manager will, by default, leave it alone [18:25] is there a way in Ubuntu to make the unity dash appear by swiping from outside the touchscreen like in Windows 8? [18:26] Hmm... So sounds to me like I'll have to change up some stuff to renew my Ip. [18:26] Shadow}}: For Nework Manager you can check which connections it has simply with "nmcli con list" [18:26] mykrob76, I doubt it. [18:26] Ahh, nmcli stands for networkmanager client? [18:27] Beldar: oh ,well... Got a small screen, just trying to save real estate. Suppose I can leave the dock on screen but make it smaller.' [18:27] Hm. Well it popped up my connection I'm using so take that as it IS network manager managed? [18:28] mykrob76, Is this using touch or a mouse? [18:28] Beldar, using touch. It's a lenovo yoga. Works fine with the touchpad, just looking at ways to actualy make this touchscreen useful [18:29] Reminds me. While I'm here do any of you know an alternative to BleachBit? === dave is now known as Guest90434 [18:29] That work on this latest Xubuntu. [18:29] mykrob76, Ah, I would be careful just trying to make either OS similar or expect them to be is all. [18:31] Yes, No? BleachBit hasn't worked properly since I went to 14.04 [18:31] Hmm... Is there a bleeding edge BleachBit? >:D Sounds like a good way to redo my OS and cuss myself alot for doing it despite many warnings. [18:31] Hi. Who use Spotify on Linux? === render is now known as Guest629 [18:32] Senpos, we don't support polling here, if you have an actual issue state that. === Guest629 is now known as raskolnikov === raskolnikov is now known as raskol === raskol is now known as rungtung [18:33] Alwel. Another day, Bye all thank you for the helps. [18:33] OK, sorry. After playing new track on Spotify my xfce-notify shows only Song Name and Album. Is it possible to show artist there? [18:34] I'm still running ubuntu 10.04 (yes, I know I need to upgrade), but was wondering how I would go about placing a program like Sublime Text on the start menu. Any Ubuntu gurus, much obliged. [18:35] js_doode, Not supported [18:36] Beldar: so, in my case, I'll just have to start it from terminal, until I upgrade then huh. [18:36] Senpos, spotify is a third party technically not supported is all. [18:37] js_doode, Just technically not supported here, and you would have to do a a eol specific upgrade, at this point your desktop is not getting upgrades from the ubuntu repos. [18:38] Beldar: Ah. I see. Thank you. [18:41] Heya MavKen, You there? [18:41] anyone know where I can see people sharing their ubuntu or linux rigs? Photos. thanks [18:42] yes [18:42] knee deep in netbeans... whats up? [18:42] That line failed to open some lock, Asked if I'm root. Anyway to open term as root or something else to bypass the problem? [18:42] Or just sign in as root? [18:42] js_doode: sidenote (sorta offtopic), but, if you wanna live in the past, debian squeeze is the first debian LTS and is still supported <- it's what Lucid 10.04 was based off of... just fyi [18:43] So, I am going to give ubuntu a try on my machine at work and wondering if anyone has experience with a multi monitor setup [18:43] Code|Teal: Yes [18:43] figure that it is not going to work properly on install [18:44] and figure that it is potentially going to be a nightmare lol [18:44] when are the pc games going to be working on linux?

I'm looking to upgrade to trusty tahr, so i'm moving on. I just can't do it at this particular time. Partly, because I'm working on a project, and I guess laziness to backup :) [18:46] i mean the real good ones like car racing games [18:46] Code|Teal, had you heard of project torque or heat? [18:46] Just like to point out its not a lack on linux part but on the world's part for selling out "PC" games.

[18:48] zykotick9: But I'm actaully looking to upgrade hardware at this point, which is why I asked where I can go see some latest ubuntu rigs. To get an idea. [18:48] Can I repeat my question to MavKen? Nvm just said their name so... [18:48] Code|Teal: I've got an external Quadro NVS420 here driving 4 [18:48] installing ubuntu is off topic in here? [18:48] Code|Teal, random opinions on games is not support. [18:49] Shadow}}, can you pm me? not able to watch channel atm [18:49] Beldar, yeah... a question was asked about when games were going to be able to run on linux and I said that some are... [18:49] that is not opinion, that is fact [18:49] but OK [18:50] Code|Teal, Right which to begin with was not a support question, you mistakenly answered, this channel has specific rules, this is not an ego boxing match to prove your point. ;) [18:51] ego boxing match?!

[18:53] Beldar, I am truly sorry that I answered what I thought was a question about games on ubuntu in the ubuntu support channel... not quite sure what you are talking about with an ego boxing match, but glad you think so lowly about the new people in here [18:54] Hi guys I am updating the system and grup-pc configuration poped up I have two option to choose from one is /dev/sda 256060 MB SAMSUNG_SSD_PM851_mSATA_256GB) and /dev/sda9 (129436 MB'; /) not sure which one to pick [18:54] btw this is dual boot installation with windows [18:54] when I I use the Ubuntu GUI to share a directory, is it using Samba conf to set up the share? [18:54] Trudko, W8, this a uefi and are you using the mbr? [18:55] I need to make some changes to the shared directories but I don't see any entries for it in the smb.conf file [18:55] Since I'm tunneling to the PC through SSH, I can't use the GUI window to configure it [18:56] Beldar: frankly not sure [18:56] how can I find out? [18:56] forgot, people like Beldar are the reason I dont use ubuntu, I will cancel my download and go elsewhere then [18:56] sorry to bother everyone [18:56] Rage [18:56] Anyway, my question still stands :) [18:57] Trudko, Easiest for me to know would be from a script run, are you on the ubuntu desktop?

Other than a efi boot partition sda1 and it is a gpt HD. [19:15] walterbit: I never heard of Crystalspace - what is it?

[19:18] Symphonym, it is removed from the repos, so i guess not ? if you find a linux package, it must be old (2007) http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=10&platform=Unix [19:19] Symphonym, The original ubuntu version has been discontinued, there are pdf readers installed and the adobe was like version 9 [19:19] OerHeks: Ah I see, well I get the error: "The document you are trying to load requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher" [19:21] Beldar: well according to this http://askubuntu.com/questions/23418/what-do-i-select-for-grub-install-devices-after-an-update I should check /dev/sda [19:21] and according to comment there should be option Don't install grub in next screen so lets try that [19:22] Trudko, don;t do that you have nothing in sda now. [19:22] Trudko, The link is for a msdos you have gpt. [19:22] I heard ubuntu is going bankrupt [19:22] Symphonym: you can still get a deb for version 9 on adobe.com That should be sufficient [19:23] !ot | jjsandles [19:23] jjsandles: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

I keep getting a permission denied error and I do not know how to fix it. [19:24] thats up to you, works great for me [19:25] hey, they got their own channel! lets ask there [19:26] walterbit: You first [19:28] can anyone help with ibus and remapping keys ? === asus is now known as Guest13733 [19:33] does modifying /usr/share/X11/xkb/keycodes/evdev have immediate effect or some update has to be run? [19:35] I'm installing 14.04 right now and I chose to encrypt... It's asking me for a "security key" which should be entered each time I reboot... Seeing the width of the boxes, I'm a little confused as to what is called a "security key" here. Is that the encryption key (in which case I usually create something quite long and complex, or is that the user password? or something else? [19:35] <21WAARVHM> sup guys, a friend of mine just installed ubuntu 14.04 but his avm usb wlan stick isn't working. it can't find any wlan networks, but he can find the device itself via "lsusb". any ideas how to get it working? [19:36] Guys, I installed a package which listens on certain ports (8080,8443,etc). After installing and confirming the package is running, when I do netstat -ln I don't see those ports active and being listened to...what is my next step to check? [19:36] Caffeine: Password, or more accurately, PASS PHRASE to unlock the encrypted disk. Difficult but memorable so you don't forget it [19:37] RainMan28: sudo lsof -i :port maybe? [19:38] own: tried sudo lsof -i :8443 and just get zero output [19:38] how do I unmount an encrypted home folder from an external drive? [19:39] litropy: you cant as long as the user is logged in. [19:39] bekks, Ah. So a complete logout is my only option? [19:42] litropy: Correct. [19:42] Guys, I installed a package which listens on certain ports (8080,8443,etc). After installing and confirming the package is running, when I do netstat -ln I don't see those ports active and being listened to...what is my next step to check? [19:42] thx, bekks [19:42] RainMan28: Check the configuration and the logs of that package. [19:43] bekks: ok, how could I go about doing that? I am new to linux [19:47] bekks: So for my 2 yeard old graphic card did i need to update driver form nvidia? [19:50] Hi. I have an app that stopped working as user but it's ok as root. What's the best way to debug this? [19:51] forevertheuni, by starting: what app, and what ubuntu version ? === renato is now known as Guest89836 [19:52] walterbit: Which driver version do you use currently? === Guest89836 is now known as renato___ [19:52] forevertheuni: as a guess: see if the folders and files in /home belong to your user === butters is now known as Guest82632 [19:53] bekks: 304 and in synaptic package manager I see 331 [19:53] walterbit: You do not need to upgrade then. [19:54] bekks: Really? 331 is newer and is not installed at now [19:55] maybe it makes work my card [19:55] walterbit: And since 304 is working fine, you do not need to upgrade. You can, but there is no need to. [19:55] ah ok, but is not working fine at all [19:55] walterbit: Can you elaborate on that please? [19:56] bekks: well, as i told you i want to run a game engine, and fail because of the graohic card [19:56] walterbit: I am still waiting on exact messages :) [19:57] bekks: the error is that it is not loading parallaxtest [19:58] the little info about this on the web is that is an envidia graphic issue [19:59] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=603267 [20:00] Hi the room [20:01] walterbit: There are other errors before, like the alsa thing. [20:01] i'm looking for orientation. Not sure if this is the indicate place for that [20:01] alsa works well in my computer [20:01] Iḿ using 14.04 [20:02] and after last installation of ubuntu base package, my device become crazy [20:02] no network, nor graphic card identifying, no sound [20:03] and dunno how restore it [20:03] Is there a guide to install Win7 alongside a *ubuntu install? I haven't had windows on a computer for 10 years, and just got an at-home position that i'll need windows for. [20:03] why changes to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/* do not affect keyboard layouts, should I run some command to update system after changes? [20:03] walterbit: The error messages states that the also plugin cannot be loaded, and as a dependency of that, the software renderer for the sound subsystem couldnt be loaded. Thats not a nvidia issue really :) [20:03] !dualboot | SilentDis [20:03] SilentDis: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [20:05] bekks: thank you. would it be, in your expirience, just 'easier' to backup /dev/sda1 with rsync, repartition the drive off boot medium ahead, install windows to first partition, then install ubuntu back on /dev/sda2? [20:05] bekks: sorry, my problem is exactly that one http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-games-ubuntu/2013-November/005963.html [20:05] the other link is similar error but just other sorry [20:07] SilentDis, we recomment installing win7 first ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows [20:07] Gens , from the ubuntu server , anyway to access the browser in command line ? because internet is not working , basically from gui if we open we need to enter user name and password . but I don’t know how to enter user name and password ..any one advise or any other way to get the internet access [20:07] walterbit: have you run walktest under gdb to capture a backtrace? [20:07] TJ-: I dont know what gdb is [20:08] is it normal for ubuntu to run java games faster or is my windows drivers messed up? [20:08] OerHeks: so, backup /dev/sda1, boot off liveUSB, partition /dev/sda to 2 30GiB partitions, install windows to the first, install ubuntu to /dev/sda2, restore install? [20:08] Joseph_: "lynx" or "www-browser" aka "w3m" are command-line browsers [20:08] OerHeks: I should note, my home is /dev/sdb1, and has been for a long time. ssd for the os and all :) [20:08] Hi there. Can someone help me with a cron(very simple problem)? [20:09] walterbit: 'gdb' is the GNU DeBugger [20:09] SilentDis, yes, sounds good. no need to backup sda1 i guess, if your home is sdbX [20:09] OerHeks: true, there's something out there to grab pack lists, right? [20:10] OerHeks: so after i get my installs done, I just run a pre-built package list install? i remember seeing something about that, just never had a use for it till now lol [20:10] SilentDis: I'd rather backup the filesystem, rather than the device node - and for a full backup, I'd use tar. [20:11] walterbit: I dont think thats your problem. I guess you have another problem. [20:11] bekks: rsync, yes. my /home is already backed up to external media for that. plenty of space to backup /, if it's even necessary... which, thinking about it, really isn't. [20:12] SilentDis: I'd use tar at that point. [20:12] walterbit: I can reproduce the error here... hold on whilst I investigate [20:12] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7826741/ [20:12] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7826741/ [20:12] ok thanks TJ- [20:13] now i'm loading system from an external device with 13.04- but need to restore my system. Is there a way to do it without reinstall whole system? [20:13] any location to store the password ? [20:13] bekks: yep i get the errors crystalspace.system: Error setting directory ‘parallaxtest’! crystalspace.system: Error initializing system! [20:13] SilentDis, see http://askubuntu.com/a/137991 (only for repository packages, not PPA ) [20:14] walterbit: And you get additional errors, before, regarding the sound system. [20:14] bekks: I think OerHeks has a bit better 'solution' for me. /home is off on another drive. *ubuntu and windows 7 get spots on an SSD. just dumping my *ubuntu install won't really hurt after all, just have to note the PPAs I'm on, and restore those. [20:14] bekks: i will see for the alsa thing [20:14] bekks: walterbit No, the error is just the parallaxtest directory [20:15] walterbit: is this what you see? http://paste.ubuntu.com/7826753/ [20:16] TJ-: nope exactly, i get this NOTIFY: World saving enabled. ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by environment. crystalspace.system: Error setting directory ‘parallaxtest’! crystalspace.system: Error initializing system! Cleaning up... [20:17] OerHeks, bekks: what's rather funny about all this is it's kind of 'backwards' from the problem most people face. I've not run Windows in almost 10 years; I don't wanna muck with something new when I already have something that works lmao [20:18] hey [20:19] hello? [20:19] ye bro [20:19] bekks: i remember to get alsa ok cuz one year ago i try it with sound applications. ardour or lmms i dont remember now [20:19] javo: 13.04 isnt supported anymore. [20:19] whats purpose of this? [20:20] I know. my problem is with the 14.04 [20:20] ant thought pls ?

[20:21] not network, not raphic card, no sound [20:21] no man,works fine [20:21] old: We dont know, it isnt supported in here. [20:21] walterbit: OK, I see the fault. The file it is looking and its associated files have been moved from data/shader/... to data/old-shader/... and newer files are in data/shader/... [20:22] yo tj [20:22] wher u from [20:22] so what i need to do, change the directory in any conf file, or copy and paste from old directory to new? [20:23] old, yeah, backtrack is good... only not supported here ... oh, it is discontinued, EOL [20:23] man im lovin this xchat [20:23] bekks : It doesn't identfy my graphic card anymore, nor network access, nor sound is running === party is now known as Guest63528 [20:24] jevo u can use proprietary dvers ,no?

You can create a dedicated server and then do it that way, but vm 3d graphics isn't going to be as smooth as you think [21:34] Nordom, it won't fully utilize your gaming graphics cards drivers that way.

[21:37] It's just simple fact that virtual graphics drivers aren't equivalent to dedicated host gaming drivers. [21:37] wheatthin: It *isn't* virtual when it uses VT-d [21:38] The guest has full access to the PCI I/O register mappings, that's the point of VT-d [21:38] wheatthing are you familiar with VT-D technology? [21:38] sorry, I meant it isn't 'virtualised' as in, the graphics device isn't emulated [21:40] Nordom: Xen with VT-d passthrough is great for a HVM domU [21:40] TJ-, HVM domU?

Now it can't. *shrug* [21:43] tes [21:43] doherty: At a terminal I believe you can do "unity --reset" or similar [21:44] I just intalled gimp, inkscape and mypaint. They won't run. I get this error: error while loading shared libraries: libgomp.so.1 [21:44] TJ-: `unity --reset` is deprecated and appears to do nothing. [21:45] doherty: Ahhh, for 14.04 you'll need "unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity" which may required "sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool" [21:45] TJ-, I played with Ubuntu on my gaming machine, but I wasn't VT-d capable. So I was force to do boot... This Mobo is actually ding as my 16 gigs of ram are drop to 1333mhz and I can only access 12 gigs of them and my usb3 ports dont work anymore.... (I swapped ram and didnt help, wifes machine is same mobo works fine, this one is done) So anyways I been chopping at the bit for some time to making a gaming capible VM linux machine [21:45] I'm not sure how to get any insight into what unity is doing/failing to do [21:45] hi2all [21:45] TJ-: I'll give it a shot [21:45] does exist any lightweight xlsx viewer for ubuntu?

I shut it down, deleted the directory (after gzip'ng the dir for backup), restarted apache but I still see messages going out. what am I missing to track down how this is happening? is there a way to see what ssmtp is sending? [21:49] Anyone know what package contains libgomp.so ? [21:50] mkdmz: "dpkg -S libgomp.so" or if the package isn't installed "apt-file search libgomp.so" [21:50] anomaly_: start with "egrep -i ssmtp /var/log/syslog" and see what it says...

There's no clock in the menu bar, or the drop down to log out, for example. And it never seems to end execution, so that seems like it isn't going to /actually/ fix anything unless I'm OK with running that from a VT every time in order to get a crippled unity interface -___- [22:00] anomaly_: you could replace /usr/bin/sendmail with a script that makes a copy of all outbound mail. Actually, I'd be more concerned one of your apache servers is compromised & generating spam... [22:02] Loshki when I removed the directory containing the wordpress site, I have not seen a spam message yet with tail -f /var/log/mail.log, so that is one positive. do you have a recommendation for a howto on replacing as you mention, that is friendly to non programmers? ha. [22:04] Hello everybody :) [22:05] hi silverio todo bien? [22:05] Hi javo... nop [22:05] I have been googling for the whole day and trying to solve a problem but... I couldn't [22:05] and you? [22:13] can i place a mint mate qustion [22:14] I don't know if somebody could help me with it. Just I donno why now I cannot run win8, when i try it, grub says that file/bootmgfe.efi/endEntire error: cannot load image === user1__ is now known as sb2 === sb2 is now known as sbX === sbX is now known as sb555 [22:16] silverio: more or less the same. where at least suggested a couples of things and had the patience on explain me how to try them was in ubuntu uk. I suggest you try there [22:16] #ubuntu-uk [22:19] using a ubuntu install for a vps when i login via ssh as root i have username@domain: in the console, when i login with a user i created i get $ [22:19] what am i doing wrong for the user? [22:20] silverio: Are you booted into Ubuntu right now? [22:20] Javo, no entiendo muy bien. [22:20] yes [22:20] I am in mint17 [22:20] updated by repositories upgrade [22:20] from Mint16 [22:20] silverio: Mint isn't Ubuntu [22:20] You are right [22:20] I am sorry [22:22] hi all [22:22] silverio: Your issue though, will be that you have a UEFI motherboard... and its boot-menu has lost/never had/corrupted its entry for Windows, *or* the Windows boot-loader files in the EFI System Partition (a FAT file-system usually 1st on the disk) has missing/corrupted Windows boot files. If your Linux OS has booted in UEFI mode you should have the EFI SP mounted at "/boot/efi/" and be able to explore that file-system to check if the Windows files look to be wha [22:22] t a web-search shows you should be there [22:24] <_zoggy_> hmm 14.04 has fail2ban v0.8.11 [22:24] My original OS was Win8, but I installed Mint, it was in dual mode pretty good for long time, but a couple of week ago I detected that I caouldn't join Win8 anymore, it coincide with an update and a boot-repair ran. [22:25] I can join my files of Win8 from Mint [22:25] no problem of it [22:25] but I cannot run Win8 itself [22:27] silverio: you should try the mint support channel or maybe ##windows can help you get windows to boot, but probably not mint [22:28] !mint | silverio [22:28] silverio: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [22:28] how do I add sub interfaces to my server? === Jesse__ is now known as filadome [22:28] Jeeves_Moss: care to explain what you mean? [22:29] daftykins, I need to add IPs on other subnets to the only adaptor in the box === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [22:30] Jeeves_Moss: ah ok, so making it a multi-homed host [22:31] Jeeves_Moss: sudo ip address add dev eth0 10.0.0.254/24 [22:31] yes [22:31] Jeeves_Moss: that will do it temporarily, to make it permanent, it depends on your distro [22:32] (pro tip - we're in an ubuntu support channel, we only support ubuntu) [22:36] Jeeves_Moss: here's how to do it on recent ubuntu/debian: https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration#iproute2_method [22:36] daftykins: doesn't hurt to be nice ;) [22:37] feitingen: sorry i forgot the smiley :) === jnainggolan is now known as Guest96522 [22:42] daftykins: no worries, i forgot which channel i was in :) [22:44] feitingen, Jeeves_Moss using that info from debian is wrong on ubuntu, as /etc/network/interfaces is controlled by networkmanager, use /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth to set those statics [22:45] ??? [22:45] OerHeks: cool, didn't know that, when did that happen? [22:46] feitingen, not sure when this was introduced. 13.04 ? [22:46] Add the following line to your ~/.bashrc file on Linux or to your ~/.bash_profile on Mac OS X: [22:46] export PATH=${PATH}:$HOME/gsutil [22:46] OerHeks: i'm still stuck managing a bunch of 12.04 and 10.04 :( [22:47] there is no bashrc by default? [22:48] feitingen, from 12.4 as far as i can see http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man5/interfaces.5.html [22:48] rungtung: either there is or there isn't [22:52] OerHeks: Network Manager isn't controlling "/etc/network/interfaces", that is provided by ifupdown. [22:53] TJ-, you are correct, sorry for this half-true info. [22:55] OerHeks: I think I know what you were getting at :) ... runparts was introduced to provide "/etc/network/interfaces.d/" because of the proliferation of multi-interface systems making managing "interfaces" a pain... now other packages (and users) can add per-interface configuration files into the "interfaces.d/" directory without changing the base configuration, or any other runparts config [22:57] TJ-, did ubuntu introduce /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder same time? [23:00] hey [23:00] OerHeks: No, that's been around a lot longer I think... I recall when interfaces.d/ was introduced the scripts failed to call runparts on that directory. I was the one that fixed that bug after being caught out by it for about a day :) [23:00] help [23:01] TJ-, great, thanks for that :-) [23:01] now i am up2date [23:01] AmanMinhas, just ask your question [23:02] OerHeks: I think the runparts apt/sources.list.d/ was introduced by Debian [23:02] We just inherit them :) [23:08] hello, I'm having trouble getting audio to work, I was wondering if anyone would try and help me get it fixed [23:09] mmmm nobody home there :) in any case, thank you everyone here [23:10] xuboo, have you tried this page? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems [23:16] hello, I'm having trouble getting audio to work, I was wondering if anyone would try and help me get it fixed [23:16] How do I uninstall something I apt-get installed? [23:16] try sudo apt-get remove programname [23:16] *program_name [23:17] is it safe to 'rm .viminfo' [23:18] rename it instead [23:18] then you don't have to [23:19] Good night [23:26] howdy world! === charles_ is now known as Guest89896 === Guest89896 is now known as CharlesSwain === notzopsi is now known as zopsi === aaaas is now known as aaas
