[01:45] <Joseph> im back guys, i am stuck at the dependency error
[01:48] <Joseph> hello?
[01:49] <Unit193> Howdy.
[01:50] <Joseph> I was in here earlier with a realtek card problem
[01:52] <Unit193> Right, http://askubuntu.com/questions/346685/wired-connection-problem-ubuntu-13-04-realtek-rtl8111-8168-ethernet-controller
[01:53] <Unit193> One idea was to get apt-offline and get whatever packages you needed to fix the problem with that tool, http://docs.xubuntu.org/1404/offline-packages.html
[01:54] <Joseph> i got the package and installed it. what is the command?
[02:01] <Joseph> Hello?
[02:01] <Unit193> Yes, hello.
[02:04] <Joseph> im confused on what to do here
[02:07] <Unit193> wrst said that forcing 100Mbps/full-duplex mode is helpful: sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off
[02:07] <Unit193> Ah, I see, they were trying to get you to install the dkms module, actually.
[02:08] <Joseph> yes but the modules gave me an error on install
[02:09] <Unit193> sudo apt-offline set --install-packages r8168-dkms --update apt-offline.sig
[02:09] <Unit193> If you downloaded apt-offline from the page linked.
[02:11] <Joseph> I did and it just gave me the error"apt-offline set: ambiguous option: --install could match --packages, --install-src-packages"
[02:12] <Joseph> any ideas?
[02:14] <Unit193> You're sure you used --install-packages and not --install?
[02:15] <Joseph> i ran it again. it says "ERROR: Fatal: Something is wrong with the apt system"
[02:17] <Joseph> I feel bad giving you all these errore
[02:17] <Joseph> errors
[02:22] <Unit193> I'd say it's because you tried to install a package and don't have the deps for it, so first you'll have to remove the package.
[02:22] <Joseph> which one?
[02:23] <Joseph> i have the r8168 package
[02:23] <Unit193> Whichever one you tried to install.  sudo dpkg --configure -a  will tell.
[02:24] <Joseph> nothing happened after i ran that command
[02:25] <Unit193> sudo apt-get install -f
[02:26] <Joseph> it installed then i ran the other command and still nothing
[02:33] <Joseph> are you there?
[02:33] <Unit193> Kind of, but also doing other things.  Not a lot to go on there, not really sure what you're doing or what's not working.
[02:33] <Unit193> Was hoping wrst or average_guy were still around.
[02:34] <Joseph> im sorry for the trouble
[02:34] <average_guy> sorry I'm late, what did I miss?  reading scrollback
[02:35] <Joseph> if this help another error "Unable to locate package r8168-dkms
[02:36] <average_guy> hmm, I am sorry that you are having such a difficult time Joseph
[02:36] <Joseph> its fine. I just really want to switch to linux and stop using windows. Im trying to learn software development
[02:37] <average_guy> so you did "sudo apt-offline set --install-packages r8168-dkms --update apt-offline.sig"
[02:38] <Unit193> average_guy: He may not have a full repository cache, thus it may not know yet about that package and a refresh may be required before installing it.
[02:38] <Joseph> yes and it gave the error "E: Unable to locate package r8168-dkms Error: FATAL: Something is wrong with the apt system."
[02:39] <average_guy> Joseph: You mentioned initially that you connect for a few minutes and then lose the connection,  is there a chance that rebooting  will give you a connection long enough to complete the download?
[02:40] <Joseph> its not even a few mins. its a few seconds
[02:40] <Joseph> after a while it just stops trying
[02:40] <average_guy> I see
[02:41] <average_guy> gimmie a sec here
[02:41] <Joseph> haha alright
[02:43] <average_guy> could he not just copy the entire repo to a usb key and then install it as a local repository Unit193?  Sorry I tend to use the sledgehammer approach
[02:44] <average_guy> you said you do have another machine with a connection right Joseph?
[02:44] <Joseph> yes, the one im using now. MacBook Pro
[02:44] <average_guy> obviuosly I guess, since we are talking
[02:45] <Unit193> average_guy: ...Do you happen to know how large it is? :)
[02:45] <average_guy> I do not, is why I ask
[02:45] <Unit193> I'd just say, refresh the cache, then install it using two steps rather than one with apt-offline.
[02:45] <Unit193> average_guy: Think hundreds of gigs, IIRC.
[02:46] <average_guy> ew
[02:46] <Joseph> how do i refresh?
[02:48] <average_guy> I am reading http://docs.xubuntu.org/1404/offline-packages.html
[02:49] <Unit193> First section, updating.
[02:49] <Unit193> If he doesn't have an online computer with apt-offline, I can volunteer that.
[02:50] <Joseph>  That was the problem. I do not.
[02:51] <average_guy> are you reading the page Joseph?  It has pretty clear instructions
[02:52] <average_guy> frm deiconnected machine: apt-offline set --update apt-offline.sig
[02:52] <Joseph> yes i am. I just dont have a computer that apt-offline
[02:52] <Joseph> has
[02:52] <Joseph> i got the .sig file, put it on a usb and onto my macbook but i do not have the command available to do so.
[02:53] <Unit193> I do, if you want to use the Mac to download it from me.
[02:53] <Unit193> it = the zip file.
[02:53] <Unit193> Just send me the sig file.
[02:53] <Joseph> can you send files through irc
[02:57] <Joseph> http://www.mediafire.com/view/yxvqvh0xn6x29v1/apt-offline.sig here you go
[02:58] <Joseph> you get it?
[02:58] <Unit193> Will in a sec.
[03:00] <Unit193> https://unit193.net/bundle.zip MD5: 0fcb108469214d9ea97793ee364e8e2a
[03:00] <Joseph> why so large
[03:01] <average_guy> 27mb is large?
[03:01] <Joseph> the original file was just a few kb
[03:01] <Unit193> unit193@Sigma:~$ du -hs /var/lib/apt/lists/
[03:01] <Unit193> 102M	/var/lib/apt/lists/
[03:01] <Joseph> what is that
[03:02] <Unit193> That's the full cache update, you then transfer that to the offline linux computer to update the cache.
[03:02] <Joseph> i ment the command
[03:03] <Unit193> sudo apt-offline install bundle.zip
[03:04] <Joseph> i typed that command perfectly and nothing happened. Should i see a result?
[03:07] <Joseph> okay it finally worked
[03:07] <Unit193> Does  sudo apt-offline set --install-packages r8168-dkms apt-offline.sig  command work?
[03:08] <average_guy> you have to navigate to the folder on the usb with the .zip
[03:08] <average_guy> and enter the command
[03:08] <Joseph> it says "Generating database of package r8168-dkms, and its dependencies"
[03:08] <average_guy> jackpot
[03:08] <Joseph> then stops
[03:09] <Unit193> Should have a new apt-offline.sig file for me.
[03:09] <Joseph> what do i do now
[03:09]  * Unit193 likes tagteam with average_guy! \o/
[03:09] <Unit193> Send 'er over to me.
[03:09] <average_guy> :D
[03:10] <Joseph> http://www.mediafire.com/view/5b8c8us8d6c49ry/apt-offline.sig
[03:10] <Joseph> there ya go
[03:12] <Unit193> Heh, that's the old one. :P
[03:12] <Joseph> nope it cant be. i just uploaded it
[03:13] <average_guy> sudo apt-offline set --install-packages $PACKAGENAME --update apt-offline.sig to generate new one
[03:14] <Joseph> http://www.mediafire.com/view/4m4fwau9r9hw9a1/apt-offline.sig try that
[03:14] <Joseph> same url diff file i presume
[03:16] <Joseph> is something wrong
[03:17] <Unit193> Nooope.
[03:17] <Joseph> http://www.mediafire.com/view/7e3c8soliy7e829/apt-offline(2).sig try that if you think something is wrong with the other one
[03:18] <Unit193> https://unit193.net/bundle.zip MD5: 1b0ae8a2d560e6d7843a870ff7b45781
[03:18]  * Unit193 finds it useful having apt-offline on his server. :P
[03:20] <Unit193> :(
[03:20] <average_guy> rut row
[03:20] <Unit193> Oh good, we didn't lose him.
[03:20] <Joseph> can you say those commands again.
[03:20] <Joseph> i was dc
[03:21] <Unit193> sudo apt-offline install bundle.zip  for the new file, https://unit193.net/bundle.zip
[03:21] <Joseph> i did that and it looks like the results of the last fiel
[03:21] <Joseph> file
[03:21] <Joseph> *
[03:23] <Unit193> Now,  sudo dkms status
[03:23] <Joseph> command not found
[03:24] <Joseph> "sudo: dkms: command not found"
[03:25] <Unit193> Rechecked the bundle, it had dkms. average_guy ^
[03:25] <Joseph> im sorry for all the trouble im giving you guys
[03:26] <average_guy> sudo apt-get install dkms
[03:26] <Unit193> Oh right, were you supposed to sudo apt-get install -f after or something?
[03:27] <Joseph> it had a bunch of feed and then ask me if i wanted to continue then a bunch of errors happend
[03:27] <Joseph> happened
[03:28] <Unit193> Joseph: Right, you just need  sudo apt-get install r8168-dkms   now.
[03:28] <average_guy> you no have to apologize Joseph, I am just trying to learn frm your troubles and Unit193 lives to serve, though he is a busy guy so patience is required
[03:29] <average_guy> right, THAT was the pkg name
[03:30] <Joseph> I am forever thankful. and 4 new things installed but when i was asked to continue, errors happened because i was not connected
[03:34] <average_guy> it installed though? you should be able to sudo dkms status
[03:35] <average_guy> may require reboot
[03:35] <Joseph> command not found
[03:35] <Joseph> im going to reboot
[03:35] <Unit193> Shouldn't require one..
[03:36] <Joseph> its one things after another
[03:36] <Joseph> *thing
[03:36] <Unit193> Can you pastebin the errors?
[03:37] <Joseph> yeah but i have been typing the word for word in here
[03:38] <Joseph> should it be working since the r8168 is installed?
[03:38] <average_guy> you just said "4 new things installed but when i was asked to continue, errors happened because i was not connected" when you installed r8168-dkms
[03:39] <average_guy> he needs to see the errors
[03:40] <Joseph> it gave the url and and couldnt connect to some websites to download further more packages
[03:40] <average_guy> he needs to see the "more packages"
[03:41] <Joseph> idk how to get those errors over to pastebin
[03:41] <average_guy> copy to a txt file in gedit or whatever you got
[03:41] <Unit193> copy > open text editor > paste > flash drive > http://paste.debian.org
[03:41] <Unit193> http://paste.debian.net/ not .org
[03:42] <average_guy> put the txt file on USB take to connected machine and paste to pastebin
[03:42] <Joseph> how do i save it to a txt file.
[03:42] <Joseph> im so sorry im new at this
[03:43] <Joseph> derp nvm
[03:44] <Joseph> http://paste.debian.net/112307/
[03:44] <Joseph> there ya go
[03:45] <Unit193> Aha, I see.  The bundle install didn't complete correctly then.
[03:46] <Joseph> what should i do?
[03:51] <average_guy> can you scroll back up to the when you installed the bundle and pastebin the errors from that?
[03:52] <Joseph> no because i rebooted like you suggested
[03:52] <Joseph> i can reinstall
[03:53] <average_guy> omg, it's not supposed to be this hard to run ubuntu
[03:53] <average_guy> I am sorry for you my friend
[03:54] <average_guy> if you reinstall the bundle you see what?
[03:55] <Joseph> do you want to see what happens when i install bundle.zip
[03:56] <average_guy> yes
[03:57] <average_guy> sudo apt-offline install bundle.zip
[03:58] <Joseph> http://paste.debian.net/112308/ viola
[03:59] <average_guy> that looks pretty good to go
[04:00] <Joseph> so now what?
[04:00] <Joseph> and i thought ubuntu was the beginners distro of linux :(
[04:01] <average_guy> it really is, you are cursed with a piece of hardware it doesn't like.  I have never had this misfortune
[04:01] <Joseph> so whats next. :/
[04:03] <Joseph> why does linux hate me
[04:04] <average_guy> hang on, reading back but it looks like the error must have been in the original .sig
[04:04] <Joseph> so what do you want to do?
[04:07] <average_guy> I hate to say it, but I REALLY have to go to bed now.  If you are on tomorrow I will try to help you otherwise you will need to wait on Unit193
[04:07] <average_guy> fyi typing a users name pings them
[04:08] <Joseph> should i ping him?
[04:08] <Joseph> thanks for all your help
[04:08] <average_guy> i just did when I typed his name
[04:08] <average_guy> I wish you luck
[04:08] <Joseph> thanks
[04:09] <Joseph> Unit193 do you have any ideas?
[04:09] <Unit193> Might be better off tomorrow.
[04:09] <Joseph> you going to bed?
[04:11] <Joseph> wrst you there?
[04:11] <Unit193> Not quite, but the maintainer of a package I help with is online, and we have a build failure to fix, as well as I'm working on converting a couple svn repos to git.  My recommendation would be to try again from the top, and see if you accidentally missed a step.
[04:12] <Joseph> okay thanks man. Im sorry for bothering you.
[04:13] <Unit193> No problem, just a tad busy atm.
[04:23] <Joseph> anybody else in here?
[04:42] <Joseph> wrst are you up?
[05:39] <Joseph> I fixed it!!!!
[06:11] <Unit193> Welp...
[10:35] <wrst> Wish he had said how
[10:38] <average_guy> MAN! me too wrst
[10:40] <wrst> Oh well he did what I don't think he could, figured it out.
[14:19] <netritious> howdy
[14:31] <wrst> hello netritious
[14:58] <netritious> how's life wrst?
[15:04] <wrst> going well and you?

[15:30] <wrst> guess that's good, means money shall continue to come in still for the short term :)
[15:57] <netritious> :)
[18:36] <Joseph__> Need a little help. My headphones and microphone are not showing up in the sound setting on ubuntu 14.04
[18:36] <Joseph__> average_guy?
[18:42] <wrst> Joseph__: what type of headphone/microphone? bluetooth? USB? wired?
[18:43] <Joseph__> btw i fixed my wifi
[18:43] <Joseph__> blue yeti mic and audio technica headphones
[18:43] <wrst> Joseph__: ahh thought it was a wired network setup?
[18:43] <Joseph__> ive tried a billion methods but none have worked
[18:44] <Joseph__> i found this forum that had some commands for downgrading the realtek driver
[18:44] <Joseph__> and it was
[18:44] <Joseph__> i ment wired
[18:44] <wrst> ahh ok going to say that might have brought on a different line of thinking
[18:45] <Joseph__> but i cant get my mic or headphones to show in the settings
[18:45] <Joseph__> the only sound that works is the one from my monitor
[18:47] <Joseph__> any ideas?
[18:51] <wrst> well I'm no for sure if they should show in the settings
[18:51] <wrst> are your headphones just normal headphones with an 1/8 inch jack?
[18:51] <Joseph__> to be honest im not sure
[18:52] <Joseph__> the headphones plug into the yeti which is then plugged into the computer via usb
[18:54] <wrst> ok so its getting the mic to work then, I am guessing that it should show up as another audio device if it is detected properly
[18:54] <Joseph__> the problem is that under the input and output section there are not options
[18:59] <wrst> that is a symptom of the problem, does the mic light up?
[19:00] <Joseph__> yes the mic has power to it
[19:00] <wrst> is it powered only by usb?
[19:00] <wrst> open up a terminal and type: lsusb and see if your mic is listed there
[19:01] <Joseph__> i dont see it
[19:05] <Joseph__> Do you know what is wrong
[19:14] <Joseph__> you there wrst?
[19:24] <wrst> Joseph__: yep, I'm at work
[19:24] <Joseph__> oh my bad. what do you do?
[19:24] <wrst> I know its not being detected now we need to figure out why
[19:24] <wrst> its a usb 2.0 audio device which does not work as well as usb 1.0 devices
[19:25] <Joseph__> is there a driver i need
[19:25] <wrst> unsure, I *think* it should be detected in lsusb, do you care to paste the results of lsusb
[19:26] <wrst> probably do it at pastbin.com so we don't clutter things up here and post the link back
[19:28] <Joseph__> it wont let me copy the terminal
[19:28] <Joseph__> nvm figured it out
[19:30] <Joseph__> http://paste.debian.net/112501/
[19:30] <Joseph__> there ya go
[19:34] <wrst> hmm....
[19:34] <Joseph__> what?
[19:44] <wrst> I don't know things look like it should just work from what little I see
[19:45] <Joseph__> is there a driver i need to install
[19:46] <wrst> no
[19:47] <Joseph__> linux is slowly losing its value to me
[19:47] <wrst> what i'm seeing it looks like it worked but now doesn't for some... still searching
[19:48] <Joseph__> are there any  commands i can do in the terminal to reset the audio or?
[19:48] <wrst> no because it isn't listed as a device
[19:49] <wrst> you could try a couple of things, one try unplugging and plugging it back up and then try lsusb to see if it is listed
[19:49] <wrst> the next thing I would try would be to reboot with the mic plugged in if you haven't already
[19:49] <wrst> then we can move to something else
[19:50] <Joseph__> it was listed in the first one because when i ran the lsusb command the second time the list was shorter
[19:50] <wrst> listed in the first what?
[19:52] <Joseph__> the pastebin link'
[19:52] <Joseph__> Bus 008 Device 003: ID b58e:9e84
[19:52] <Joseph__> that is the one
[19:58] <wrst> ok so where are you at? have you rebooted
[19:58] <wrst> just a good way to be sure we are starting off from scratch
[20:00] <Joseph__> just a few moments ago i did
[20:00] <wrst> I don't think your card will show up here but its a good place to look when having sound problems
[20:00] <wrst> drop to a terminal and type: alsamixer
[20:00] <wrst> then press F6 and see if you see it listed in that list
[20:00] <Joseph__> okay now what
[20:01] <wrst> is it listed?
[20:01] <Joseph__> yeti mic is listed but when i select it the command prompt times out
[20:01] <wrst> what do you mean?
[20:02] <Joseph__> i try to look at the setting for yeti in alsa but it just closes the command prompt
[20:03] <wrst> when you arrow down and press enter?
[20:03] <wrst> that can't close the terminal
[20:04] <Joseph__> yes and it does
[20:04] <Joseph__> it freezes then closes
[20:04] <wrst> does it close alsamixer or the entire terminal?
[20:04] <Joseph__> alsamixer and now its not even listed when i go back into it
[20:05] <wrst> so the terminal doesn't close.... ok let me do a little more checking, have you tried another usb cable that type of thing?
[20:05] <wrst> off and on is very odd with most things linux it either works or it doesn't
[20:07] <Joseph__> it use to work on my windows
[20:08] <wrst> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2229611&p=13049564#post13049564
[20:08] <Joseph__> wow
[20:08] <Joseph__> im cursed
[20:14] <wrst> Joseph__: you might want to try #ubuntustudio
[20:15] <wrst> or #ubuntu
[20:15] <Joseph__> what is that
[20:15] <wrst> irc channel
[20:16] <Joseph__> so you dont know what the problem is
[20:18] <wrst> yes the problem is it doesn't work ;)
[20:18] <wrst> the solution I have no clue
[20:39] <average_guy> Hello Joseph__, what did I miss?
[20:39] <average_guy> Looks like sound problems now eh?
[20:39] <Joseph__> i solved my ethernet problem but now i have a whole new set of problems with my audio
[20:40] <average_guy> you have an external sound device that connects USB right?
[20:42] <Joseph__> i have yeti connected to the computer
[20:42] <Joseph__> my headphones are plugged into the yeti
[20:44] <average_guy> so your sound works fine but the mic is not functioning correctly and by proxy the headphones when you plug them into it?
[20:45] <Joseph__> yep
[20:45] <Joseph__> its very annoying
[20:46] <average_guy> what model is the yeti?
[20:47] <Joseph__> im not sure its called blue yeti
[20:48] <average_guy> looks like this:

[20:48] <average_guy> maybe
[20:48] <Joseph__> thats it
[20:49] <average_guy> ok then, let see if I can find you a solution
[20:49] <Joseph__> thank you
[20:50] <average_guy> don't thank me yet, I guarentee nothing :P
[20:51] <average_guy> you are running Ubuntu 14.04?  (not xubuntu or lubuntu)
[20:51] <Joseph__> idk why i am cursed with so many errors
[20:51] <Joseph__> yes
[20:51] <Joseph__> ubunut 14.04
[20:51] <average_guy> seen this: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-set-up-blue-yeti-mic-in-ubuntu
[20:52] <Joseph__> about ten times. the problem is that it dosnt show in the menus
[20:54] <average_guy> ok
[20:55] <average_guy> sill looking, you might also ask over in #ubuntu-studio, those guys should know all about connecting mics
[20:55] <Joseph__> i already tried
[20:56] <average_guy> :( I'm sorry to hear that it is still unresolved then
[20:56] <average_guy> lemme keep digging a bit
[20:56] <Joseph__> this is hopeless
[20:58] <average_guy> have you tried it in other USB ports?  Like in the back of the machine instead of the front?
[20:59] <average_guy> sometimes are diff types of ports
[20:59] <Joseph__> i have tried every port on the machine plus through my keyboard port
[21:00] <average_guy> alrighty then, sounds like you've covered that
[21:00] <Joseph__> yep
[21:02] <average_guy> I see in the forums that you are not the only one with a problem with this device.
[21:02] <Joseph__> i think linux just hates my hardware
[21:04] <average_guy> I see where someone got one working here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2153270
[21:04] <average_guy> I think you should goto forums and search "yeti"
[21:05] <average_guy> look for "solved"
[21:06] <average_guy> ok yeti brought back garbage, search "yeti mic"
[21:12] <Joseph__> i think im done with linux
[21:17] <average_guy> I don't blame you after all of the troubles you have been having.  You definately need to consider the hardware when selecting the software and visa versa
[21:21] <Joseph__> now i know
[21:46] <netritious> Looks like I missed all the fun

[21:47] <netritious> whatcha got Unit193
[21:47] <Unit193> Really?  You liked it that much?  I saw it, and the only likeable ones were the autobots. :P
[21:48] <netritious> I don't get out to theatres much so yeah, I'm settling for awesome
[21:48] <Unit193> Heh.
[21:49] <netritious> sure, I can pick it apart...I grew up watching the original cartoons, including that terrible dinobots series
[21:50] <netritious> albeit I was around 25 when that one came out :$
