Ive got "dummy output" [00:06] mamece2: what video card do you have? [00:09] hey gals, [00:10] is there a way to see swap/cache breakdown? [00:10] that is, who's swapping what, and what's in there? [00:11] I'm running Ubutnu 14.04 on my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad T410), and I'm having a serious problem with the X.org open-source Nouveau graphics driver. Specifically, the screen won't turn back on after I resume from suspend. I've tried everything I've seen suggested in forum threads and nothing has worked. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this? [00:15] is there any sort of RAID that spreads writes across mulitple disks? [00:15] dcope: Doesn't RAID 5 do that? [00:17] dcope: Raid 0 stripes, Raid 1 mirrors, Raid 5,6 raid 10 ... that's the point of RAID, really :) [00:17] ok cool [00:17] i just want to make sure one disk doesn't get pegged [00:17] TJ-: I know what 0,1, and 5 do. Aren't 6-10 just alterations of 5?

[00:22] mamece2: yeah that's what I thought. Try downloading drivers from Nvidia website [00:22] and installing them [00:23] dummy output of what? [00:23] TJ-: Ah, okay. Thanks :) I can't set anything up in a RAID config right now anyway, it was more a curiosity question. [00:23] c2h6o: Ive got no audio, i found out that i have in the sound settings "dummy output" [00:24] dcope: I'd suggest your focus with RAID should be on recovery, not so much performance ... as in, RAID5 array with few disks is harder to recover than say RAID6, or RAID1, but a RAID0 has no redundancy at all so any disk goes and *poof* there's a hole in your array [00:25] mamece2: have you tried googling your problem? [00:25] + [00:25] !google | c2h6o [00:25] c2h6o: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question.

[00:31] c2h6o: I googled and found things that dont fix it. thats why im here. this is the last resort [00:32] Hi [00:32] mamece2: See my question above ^ [00:32] TJ-: no sundcard D: [00:32] TJ-: c2h6o: I am reinstalling alsa-base pulseaudio [00:32] mamece2: OK ... which release of Ubuntu ("cat /etc/issue") and which kernel version ("uname -r") ? [00:33] TJ-: I did sudo alsa force-reload . after reinstalling. still dummy output [00:33] TJ-: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l [00:34] TJ-: 3.13.0-32-generic [00:34] mamece2: OK, so standard very decent kernel... can you "sudo lspci -knnvvv | pastebinit" please? [00:37] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7947342/ [00:38] mamece2: OK, the problem is there is no kernel driver loaded for the audio device [00:38] mamece2: Can you "pastebinit /var/log/dmesg" please? [00:39] TJ: how did you find out that the driver is not loaded from the pastebin? [00:39] TJ-: where can i see the devices loaded in the kernel? [00:39] TJ: The address is all 0? [00:40] c2h6o: The lspci output I requested with "-k" .... it reports the drivers in use for each device [00:40] TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7947354/ pastebinit /var/log/dmesg [00:42] mamece2: unrelated to your other troubles possibly, but dmesg shows there is a failure of the disk controller link to the disk, its failing some (fast) Direct Memory Access (DMA) mode accesses [00:43] mamece2: it is the Maxtor 7H500F0, HA431DD0 having issues [00:43] TJ-: when i was booting I saw that mess. [00:43] TJ-: thanks. iono but if i disconnect it I could get the audio back (?) [00:44] TJ: his pastebin said "Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel"... Just wondering how you found out that it wasn't loaded (I'm a newb) [00:44] TJ: Ignore that... I'm an idiot [00:44] was looking at my pastebin :D [00:45] c2h6o: LOL you just made me start - thought I was looking at the wrong pastebin :) [00:45] TJ: haha, my bad [00:45] mamece2: hang on, lets focus on the possible issues one-at-a-time - the problem disk doesn't appear to be the boot disk (it is /dev/sdb) so for now lets focus on the missing kernel driver [00:46] TJ-: yes please [00:49] mamece2: OK, dmesg shows no attempt to load the sound module "snd_hda_intel" which I'd have expected to see, so for starters lets try loading that manually and then seeing what "/var/log/kern.log" reports. First, do "sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel". If you get anything *other* than no output tell us what you see. Then do "pastebinit <(tail -n 100 /var/log/kern.log)" [00:50] TJ-: no output from modprobe [00:50] mamece2: That is good :) [00:51] can anyone help..? I can't seem to be able to run an executable file /: [00:52] !permissions | laspahr [00:52] laspahr: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [00:53] I have allowed it to run as executable, but when I hit run it does nothing [00:53] TJ-: still no out put from "pastebinit <(tail -n 100 /var/log/kern.log" [00:53] ah nevermind, just opened it in terminal [00:54] mamece2: You missed off the last closing ")" [00:54] c [00:54] TJ-: i just saw that.. sorry [00:54] TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7947463/ [00:55] mamece2: OK, you now have sound ("cat /proc/asound/cards") [00:55] TJ-: i can see analog output in the sound settings but when i test it i cant hear anything [00:55] TJ-: yes i do [00:56] mamece2: it is possible the sinks (outputs) are mixed up (headphone and speakers reversed), or that it is muted. Try "alsamixer" [00:56] hello. [00:56] TJ-: OMG its workin!! u sir, is a wizard :) [00:56] mamece2: after that, we still need to determine why snd_hda_intel wasn't loaded at boot-time [00:57] TJ-: so i guess that if i reboot. no sound again. right? [00:57] mamece2: "grep -n snd_hda_intel /etc/modprobe.d/* | pastebinit" [00:57] I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04. after that i system-monitor, netstat -i, netspeed-applet2 ... doesnt show network traffic anymore. only zero is outputed. === GH is now known as Guest21016 [00:59] dreamon: are thouse commands targeted at a particular interface name (e.g. "eth0") - I'm wondering if the interface has a different name now ("ip link ls") ? [00:59] TJ-: it returns the following message "You are trying to send an empty document, exiting." [01:00] mamece2: That's cool - means no rules preventing that module from loading. I'm not sure why it didn't load at boot-time, it may be to do with the disk errors, or it may be the device isn't correctly identified. Try a reboot, then come back and tell us if it works. If it does not, we have ways and means of persuading it :) [01:01] TJ-: oh yes, i will do it sir. let me try [01:02] TJ-, eth3 and wlan6 are my interfaces. Bug like this -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/422244/network-traffic-reports-as-zero-bytes [01:04] dreamon: Your system is using the "alx" driver too ? [01:04] dreamon: i read about someone running a newer kernel to get interface stats back [01:05] I think so. -> lsmod | grep alx -> alx 32452 0 -> mdio 13807 1 alx [01:05] dreamon: yeah, try the latest stable mainline kernel build, if that solves it, you know where the issue is at least: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [01:06] Thank you! === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [01:29] hi i installed kubuntu-desktop on my xubuntu 14.04 install, how do i completely remove it with all the kde packages? [01:30] topkek32juan: in theory, "sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop" then "sudo apt-get autoremove" [01:30] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [01:33] topkek32juan: See TJ- 's last :: The problem with installing another desk top is the shared packages, now removing one also removes some of those packages that are in common, that must now be replaced. try -> sudo apt-get remove --purge kubuntu-desktop , sudo apt-get install --reinstall xubuntu-desktop . [01:35] TJ-: sorry Im late, i have issues with unity.. I have dummy output again TJ [01:35] Bashing-om: removing "kubuntu-desktop" won't remove anything other than that package, that's the point of the -desktop packages... their Dependency list controls what is actually required, so when they are removed any packages which are no longer referenced by another Depends are candidates for removal with "autoremove". There is no need to re-install an already installed alternative -desktop [01:36] mamece2: OK ... let's solve the snd_hda_intel issue... I can't help you with Unity, I don't use it [01:36] TJ-: what desktop manager use pros like you [01:36] ? [01:36] anyone had issues with antialiasing fonts in unity? I tried turning it off, but it just makes all fonts lool awful. with the lowest setting, small fonts are over antialiased [01:36] mamece2: "echo snd_hda_intel | sudo tee -a /etc/modules" [01:37] mamece2: I use KDE (kubuntu) simply because it can cope with this GPU/monitor configuration [01:37] TJ-: I did sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel and the audio is workin [01:37] TJ-: ^^ thanks for that , as I live and learn ... ( have some faith in the package manager ) . [01:37] Bashing-om: I think it is one of the bets parts of the Debian system [01:38] TJ-: snd_hda_intel [01:38] Bashing-om: It is why I chose Debian/Ubuntu based distros rather than RPM based [01:38] mamece2: if you run the command I showed you it will have added the kernel module name to the end of the file "/etc/modules", which is read at boot-time to manually load kernel modules [01:39] mamece2: you can check that by doing "cat /etc/modules" and ensuring it is there [01:39] TJ-: i was about to [01:39] TJ-: Agreed, That and the support that is available in ubuntu sold me away from other linux distros some time back .. but still learning this one ! [01:40] Bashing-om: I don't think we can ever stop learning with F/OSS ... it doesn't sit still for long enough :) [01:40] not working [01:40] TJ-: ok it is added to the /Etc/modules files. Is this the best way to fix it? [01:42] hey! [01:42] mamece2: When the system doesn't automatically figure out to load a module, yes [01:42] topkek32juan: neither am I [01:42] TJ-: thanks very much., i will reboot and try to fix unity. thank you again, [01:42] well [01:42] i have no kde packages [01:42] nut [01:42] but [01:42] TJ-: "it doesn't sit still for long enough" next we hve to re-learn systemD . Great ! [01:42] Is there an easy way to turn off all this hippidy dippidy bullshit in 12.04? [01:42] my taskbar looks kde color, and so does my desktop [01:43] and my right click 2, even if i change the theme [01:43] topkek32juan: Sounds like you've been playing with themes to me [01:43] nope just installed the kubuntu-destkop :( [01:43] topkek32juan: Well, not being able to see what you see, it is difficult to deduce that :) [01:43] screenshot [01:44] http://i.imgur.com/EzQasZK.png [01:44] !notunity | MrPockets also please no cursing here [01:44] MrPockets also please no cursing here: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. [01:46] topkek32juan: Have you logged out since removing the packages? [01:46] Thanks bazhang [01:46] yes [01:46] and rebooted [01:46] topkek32juan: I'm not sure what to expect to see, so I can't really help you any further [01:47] TJ-: the taskbar was black and my right click menu was black aswell, its not applying any theme i select [01:51] i need a remote desktop solution that can detach/attach to an existing desktop session.. ie.. not create another one.. whats the easiest program to use for this? [01:51] topkek32juan: Might try reseting the xfce4 desktop back to defaults ?? === jiffe98 is now known as jiffe [01:52] how [01:54] topkek32juan: First kill all running instances of XFCE-panel: -> killall xfce4-panel <-, Then remove its configuration folder (while also backing it up) -> mv ~/.config/xfce4/panel ~/.config/xfce4/panelbackup <-. At this point I prefer to reboot rather then re-start the desktop. [01:54] topkek32juan: Bashing-om I would assume that the per-user desktop (theme) settings in dfconf, or ~/.conf/ or ./local/share/ may have been written by KDE, and XFE reads them but doesn't re-rewrite the particular setting when it changes themes [01:55] topkek32juan: An easy test is to log-in as the Guest user and see if that desktop is as you expect... if it is, you've narrowed it down to a per-user account issue [02:00] TJ-: topkek32juan // reading -> The color of scrollbars, menus, buttons, etc. are all determined by your current theme, which is found under Appearance/Style in the Settings Manager. -> /usr/share/themes/ (??). [02:01] TJ-: yep, logging into a guest and the theme is fixed [02:02] does ubuntu 14.04 LTS come with python 3.x or 2.x as default [02:02] ? [02:03] harushimo: 2.7.6 (with 3.4 too) [02:03] both https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Python [02:03] I've been seeing the last couple versions. python 2.x has been default [02:04] I was thinking about upgrade to 14.04 LTS from 12.04 LTS [02:04] harushimo: 2.7.6 is the default (/usr/bin/python) and 3.4 is available (/usr/bin/python3) [02:04] harushimo: Mine : sysop@1404mini -> ii python 2.7.5-5ubunt amd64 . [02:04] 2.7.6 on my mine [02:04] another quick questions [02:05] I mean question. Why isn't Ubuntu really pushing for python 3.x? [02:05] this is not the place for policy discussion [02:05] I'm really curious [02:05] I've been using since 7.1 [02:05] harushimo: read the link OerHeks gave you [02:06] harushimo: We are [02:06] harushimo: The issue is that so many packages are using Python 2.7 constructs that it is a major job to update them, and many are outside of the core-devs remit too [02:06] That is what I thought [02:07] harushimo: so in some cases we wait for 'upstream' to adopt 3.x since Ubuntu doesn't want to carry and maintain patches [02:07] make sense [02:07] Python 3.x has been around at least few years [02:07] If you core packages are still done in 2.x, make sense to continue support it [02:08] harushimo: there was a big push for 14.04 and most core scripts were updated, but there is a *lot* of code under the hood written in Python that requires testing [02:10] right [02:10] that is one of questions. I continue to ask myself. How to port older code to the newer standard [02:10] thanks TJ- [02:11] by all the means, I'm not trying to start arguement. I was just asking some questions [02:12] thanks everyone answering my questions [02:12] I appreciate it [02:26] k2 [02:28] hey, can somebody help me? Ubuntu is crashing when I use a game [02:28] hello [02:28] I think it is a problem with the NVIDIA drivers [02:28] hey guys [02:29] im trying to SSH into a 12.04 server but it keeps freezing after showing the Last login [02:29] what gives? :( [02:30] dcope: do you have root access to the server? [02:30] ax562: Ya get the partitioning expanded ? [02:31] Loshki: yes [02:31] werid, i just killed it with enter, ~, . and after 3 tries it finally let me in [02:33] dcope: run the client with debug turned on. If that looks ok, run the server with debug turned on. If you can't make sense of the logs, you can pastebin them... [02:33] Bashing-om: yup. For some reason gparted boot disk wouldn't do it but ubuntu boot disk did. Weird. [02:33] Once in ubuntu just used gparted and it worked in a snap. [02:34] ax562: Stgange people these file systems ! // good it finally went your way .. [02:34] strange* [02:36] can anybody tell me why Ubuntu might crash when running games? I think I am having a problem with NVIDIA drivers [02:37] Bashing-om: yeah, I just REALLY didn't feel like messing up all my partitions and starting from scratch. Maybe I was being a LITTLE TOO catious. [02:37] experience has taught me that is the best way to go though. [02:40] ax562: Saftey = no accident. I have pondered on things for weeks, making up the plan before making the 1st move. [02:43] Bashing-om: agreed. The thing is I have been bulding from source but my final product hasn't been working. I'm actually building cyanogenmod from source as we speak. Reason why I kind of just wanted to jump into resizing partition. [02:46] ax562, I can't believe your still obsessing on that gparted issue, it is an app you are not even familiar with, could itb have been user error, that is the most often answer. [02:47] Beldar: I asked . [02:47] Beldar: who is obsessing? Bash was asking a question. But you seem to want to keep butting in. [02:47] be nice. [02:47] Bashing-om, Ah, and the oh say at least 25 reference on that day to it were not a red flag? [02:48] jujst saying. ;) [02:49] Beldar: : ) , thanks .. I do appreciate the hand holding . [02:51] Bashing-om: What ubuntu version are you on? [02:52] Bashing-om, nice , I will use that in my dissertation defense. ;) [02:52] hello [02:52] Beldar: OK .. LOL .. [02:53] Beldar: who is obsessing? Bash was asking a question. But you seem to want to keep butting in. Coming from a user who had to be shown the full use of the app by me. [02:53] Beldar: yes you are god. keep moving. [02:54] ax562: I do quadruple boot ( testing and verification) // my "work" station is 14.04's kernel on a ubuntu-core install -> build your own.

[04:08] daftykins: yes [04:08] ZeroSoul: you're going to have to be a bit more specific [04:08] how do i make it look less shit [04:09] and what are some things that i need to know to make it an easier switch from windows 7 [04:10] i think i got it... i changed it from Normal to lts ... [04:10] seems the later releases of ubuntu make it harder and harder to upgrade. i couldn't even find the upgrade-manager.... [04:10] also how do i do the whole window tiling thing [04:10] ballison: i find that hard to believe [04:13] i hate the dock so much.. and i can't find anything... there's not application tab in the menu bar. [04:13] i always have to convert back to ubuntu classic to be able to use it. [04:14] hello all! [04:15] I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed and everytime i reboot, i lose networking. but when i log in, i have to uncheck "Enable Networking" then recheck it and it comes back [04:15] how do i fix that? === ^_^ is now known as Guest27810 [04:27] AceFace, This a desktop login, if not tell us which and is this a local network or are you saying wifi? [04:28] just trying to confirm definitions [04:39] i activated root on my shell. how do i deactivate it? === Abhijit_ is now known as Abhijit [04:40] zacwalls, How did you activate it? [04:40] sudo passwd root [04:40] and sudo -u passwd root [04:41] zacwalls, hmm, never seen that, so this is just a terminal rooted? [04:41] no [04:41] well yes [04:42] but it has an on and off mechanism. [04:42] zacwalls: sudo passwd root will change the root password [04:42] i did [04:42] zacwalls: sudo -u passwd root makes no sense, it tries to execute the command "root" as user "passwd" [04:42] but sudo -u passwd root [04:43] i have know root bin [04:43] i think you wanted sudo -u root passwd , but you changed it already [04:44] i getz confused wuth commands [04:45] and it was sudo -u root passwd [04:46] zacwalls, Why would you make a root password in ubuntu if I understand this? [04:46] i was bored and its xubuntu 13.04 [04:47] !root | zacwalls [04:47] zacwalls: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [04:47] !eol | zacwalls [04:47] zacwalls: 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?

[04:49] and you're running a eol [04:49] i was testing out stuff like emergency things like if i ever had to enter samf mode with a root shell [04:50] zacwalls, That makes no sense [04:51] sudo -i [04:51] confusion on commands and boredom are a bad combo with just doing bad practices [04:51] so how do i change back to sudo user [04:52] oh wait never mind [04:52] zacwalls: just disable the root account, and just don't forget your user's password. [04:52] zacwalls, 13.04 is eol there is no real use for it, I would install a supported release. [04:53] it's a security hazzard, if you made another sudo'd user it would still be better, cause nobody could guess the login as 'root' as easily. [04:54] im trying to install ubuntu 12.04 inside a virtualbox vm, and at choosing keyboard layout, it freezes after pressing continue. any ideas? [04:54] Hi [04:55] is anyone alive out there?

So is this a hidden file or something? [05:53] yeah it's a hidden file [05:53] i think [05:53] eeee: so I delete it and I should be fine then? [05:54] try to cat it for the pid maybe? [05:54] got it [05:54] ok ps aux | grep [05:54] get the process name [05:55] if it's there [05:55] Anyone here?

I was not aware there was a kernel update [13:21] and a low 120gb ssd as work station [13:22] zetheroo: might have been, not sure as I've not seen your system ;) [13:22] i backup the state every hour to the ssd that enought for me [13:22] SP33D: you do realize the kernel will put stuff in disk cache, in RAM as you use it..... [13:22] I am currently running 3.13.0-32-generic [13:22] SP33D: unused RAM is wasted RAM [13:22] Action i think its still to slow all is to slow :D [13:23] SP33D: you are trying to second guess the kernel when it wll already do what you want... [13:23] i whant to work more fast i have every where so much wait cycles [13:23] i need to reduce that sometimes even firefox freezes [13:23] and then after 3 sec or so it starts working again [13:23] SP33D: you can put the data you want to work with in a RAM drive, but if the remaining RAM fills then you will get a lot of swapping, causing slowness [13:24] SP33D: 64GB of RAM!? Sounds like overkill to me :P [13:24] SP33D: se your vm.swappiness to 1 and you will make things smoother [13:24] SP33D: what ActionParsnip is saying about swappiness +1 ;) [13:24] i think its the system self that does logging and all that [13:25] that probally slows down the pc i think the bottleneck are the harddrives [13:25] SP33D: Then just put the OS and apps etc on an SSD - that will speed things up noticeably ;) [13:25] so i tought it should be able with less effort to simply work 100% with RAM only [13:26] i have all on SSD [13:26] SP33D: well yeah they are only 6gb / sec. [13:26] but i think its more fast to have it directly in RAM and will extend life of the SSD Drive [13:26] SP33D: if they are the new SATA [13:26] SP33D: You already have SSD's and that is still not fast enough for you!? [13:27] right that the normal desktop working [13:27] with many application at one time needs to get faster any how [13:27] SP33D: you could have rc.local make a RAM drive and copy data to it from the system then symlink to that, a sudden poweroff will result in data loss [13:27] SP33D: I am running 14.04 on a Thinkpad R61 ... and it's running great with 4GB of RAM and hardware about 7 years old :D [13:27] SP33D: as the OS runs, the drive is used less and less as disk cache is used === AntiSpamMeta2 is now known as AntiSpamMeta === copec_ is now known as copec === VoidWhisperer is now known as Guest52604 === joel is now known as Guest32603 [13:37] hey, whenever I try to use update-manager it writes "Failed to download repository information.

[13:42] right [13:42] That is your problem [13:43] cebor: if you are pasting text, please copy and paste text, rather than an image [13:43] sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf [13:43] at the top of the file, put in nameserver 8.8.8.8 [13:43] save it, and everything should be fine. [13:43] /etc/resolv.conf contains your DNS servers. [13:44] Your issue was that your system could not resolve the IP address of the domains in the apt repository list. [13:44] Because your /etc/resolv.conf referred to the system [13:44] hi, got following error while `apt-get update`: https://gist.github.com/cebor/ae885905f795acea0726 how can i fix this ?

[13:45] No [13:45] Not always [13:45] cebor: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 437D05B5 [13:45] Most means of connecting to the internet have a DNS cache of IP addresses [13:45] so they don't have to ask the DNS servers, which is slow.

I've installed both iscan, iscan-data and iscan-network (which are the necessary drivers to make it work). Sadly, it still doesn't work [14:09] just upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04; -- after the upgrade, the system no longer auto-starts X? -- when it books, I get a blank screen. Hit CTRL+ALT+F1, I get TTY1, then hit CTRL+ALT+F7, and Xserver is loaded now. ANyone know what's going on with that? [14:10] What is the best way to move my OS to another partition? [14:10] LUbuntu [14:10] Whenever I run simple-scan, it just hangs.. No error, no nothing. The weird thing is that it works on my laptop, for some reason! And I've no idea what the difference between the two is! [14:10] I think it might be a bug, but to report a bug I probably need more information, right? How do I go about reporting a bug?

[14:30] compdoc in windows file explorer it shows 97GB free of 107GB [14:30] my question, if you READ it, is about installing a print driver the doesn't crash.\ [14:31] waykool: uhm, it would be easier in a newer version [14:31] waykool: I don't know anything about such an old version [14:31] waykool: I don't understand why you are using it [14:31] i know my routers gateway IP, print servers IP, this computer and other stuff behind it.

Any ideas what might be wrong? [14:33] since 2007, CUPS always buffered or used spooling to control printing data to print server. but.. they never put "Spooling" user settings in the CUPS gui. [14:34] would picking a different driver help slow down v14.04 print data? [14:35] waykool: what version of ubuntu do you have a problem with? [14:35] THIS. v14.04 [14:35] so why did you say you were using 7.10?

Fine, when I try to run google.com, firefox asks me for my user and password (proxy). Works fine.. BUT... [14:36] pbx: i get that impression in here sometimes [14:36] garbage1, what devices do you need to work with? [14:36] when trying to run the update manager for softwares.. or apt-get.. my proxy doesn´t work. [14:37] Already tried to run: [14:37] i need my wireless card [14:37] and gpu [14:37] in other words, been a Linux user for 15 years, started with Red Hat. [14:37] export http_proxy=http:\\user:password@proxy.domain.com.br:3128/ [14:37] but it still not working from console.. [14:37] I can´t even ping google through terminal. [14:37] any tip? [14:37] kalib, your web browser proxy isn't a system-wide proxy... [14:37] lol, so a bunch of different people asking you why you were still using 7.10 in 2014 didn't clue you in that your question was not clear? [14:38] nm. i'll check Red Hat's site for CUPS driver issues. [14:38] waykool: you understand you can upgrade to a newer ubuntu version, right? [14:38] kalib: can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? [14:39] pbx, I know that. That´s why I´m trying to configure proxy to use my terminal commands.. [14:39] well i saw that my lap can connect to wlan but when it connects the signal isnt too rigid...ok so i came up with the idea of downloading the drivers [14:39] waykool: dude your cups issue is literally related to your ubuntu version [14:39] ActionParsnip, no. [14:39] waykool: I wouldn't ask if it wasn't related, it is literally the reason this is happening, your package is out dated and buggy and doesn't work well anymore.

Apparently repos arent there anymore. [14:39] MissValeska: how can it be figuratively related to the ubuntu version? [14:39] Any tips on fixing this without reinstall? [14:39] kalib: can you png your router's internal IP? [14:40] ActionParsnip: lol [14:40] ActionParsnip, yes.. also I can ping my proxy.. proxy.domain.com.br [14:40] normal. [14:40] MissValeska: appearantly he was just mentioning that his problem started in 7.10, he's using 14.04 [14:40] ActionParsnip: I am sure there is a way [14:40] MissValeska: why was 'literally' needed? [14:40] and, as I said, I cna navigate to any site through browser, where I have proxy configured.; [14:40] ActionParsnip: it's just a phrase [14:40] in 3d applications i get very bad performance on my ubuntu-minimal install but on a "bodhi-linux" install which is a preconfigured ubuntu for this laptop i get good performance, anyone know what might cause this? [14:40] MissValeska: its nonesense [14:40] MissValeska: 'literally' doesn't mean 'very' [14:40] is there a right-click I can make to move a window to the other screen. I can't seem to drag it over using teamviewer [14:41] trijntje: .... why didn't he say that? why didn't he correct us when we asked why he was using 7.10? [14:41] kalib: can you ping the proxy system? [14:41] ActionParsnip: it is just a phrase chill out [14:41] Czechton, bodhi uses e17, it's very lightweight [14:41] ignored [14:41] ActionParsnip,yes, I can ping my proxy.domain.com.br [14:41] hi, my other pc running 12.04 LTS doesn't fully boot. It gets to right before the login screen, I think, and then I get "monitor going to sleep", and then nada [14:41] MissValeska: please use literaly correctly, it makes intelligent people cringe [14:41] no idea where to begin diagnosing this [14:41] kalib: so the issue is web browsing, or is it apt-get that won't update [14:42] where should I start? [14:42] MissValeska: no idea, I was confused as well [14:42] Czechton: try Lubuntu [14:42] ActionParsnip,my firefox works fine when I configure my browser.. but through console, I can´t even ping any site.. I´m trying to run apt-get to update my system... [14:42] Lubuntu is best [14:42] but it´s also not working. [14:42] already tried this: [14:42] trijntje: people using 'literally' to mean 'very' is stupid and needs stamping out [14:42] yz3pD: sure but I prefer openbox and want to get experience in setting stuff up sort of from scratch [14:43] export http://user:password@proxy.domain.com.br:3128/ [14:43] also for https and for ftp [14:43] ops..

She didn't say she literally fell out of her chair when she saw he was running 7.10. [14:44] ActionParsnip, its my opinion that your in the wrong place for a usage war [sic] [sic] [14:44] yz3pD: yep I like lubuntu but i wanted to try using ubuntu-minimal [14:44] just that using such an old release is literally the cause of his problems, which is both true and gramatically correct as far as I know [14:44] I can't believe that dude is actually arguing about such a meaningless thing [14:45] MissValeska: he did...next time take a few more moment to read questions [14:45] move over [14:45] trijntje: but the issue being literally linked to the ubuntu is redundant, you can say the issue is linked to the version of ubuntu and say the same thing [14:45] MissValeska: I thought I was ignored......

[15:21] http://pastebin.com/6E0KKhaM [15:21] ive tried following a tutorial. i created a virtual machine with vmbuilder, i intalled virsh, i installed bridge [15:21] I just dont know how to setup my new ip to that vm that I created so I can ssh into it from the internet [15:22] unitypunk, sadly, for some reason the Great Firewall of China is blocking my pastebin today. [15:22] z1haze: is there a vmbuilder channel? [15:22] tor netowrk? [15:22] i followed this tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-kvm-on-ubuntu-12.04-lts [15:22] !tor [15:22] Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl [15:22] i dont follow how you can say pastebin is blocked. [15:22] z1haze, that's getting close to enough detail for a mailing list post that will get some good response [15:22] tor would let you get there [15:22] ;D [15:22] unitypunk, I'm in China = no pastebin [15:22] z1haze: is there an option for a bridged connection? [15:22] USE TOR [15:22] lol [15:22] acerimmer: tried http://pastie.org [15:22] in china most people are using TOR to get around the wall. [15:23] acerimmer, interesting. all pastebins? dpaste.com too? [15:23] but i dont know first hand. [15:23] unitypunk: or an SSH tunnel outside, not tor [15:23] sure ActionParsnip but to tell my you cant acces a website because of a firewall.. [15:23] ActionParsnip; i dont know.. i need help thats why I'm in the ubuntu irc's i really have exausted everything i know how to do and have searched the internet countles times, coming up with nothing [15:23] thats liek i cant get into a house because its locked.. [15:23] rock +window=unlocked [15:23] ActionParsnip: how? nothing done. please help me. i'm newbie :S [15:23] unitypunk: yes, happens in company networks with a filtering proxy, but if it alows SSH through you are in [15:23] but what evaaa [15:24] someone else can surely assist me [15:24] i prefer tor tails burned to dvd-r over using a usb thumb drive. [15:24] benyamin: can you pastebin the output of the commands I gave please [15:24] http://pastebin.com/6E0KKhaM [15:24] z1haze, you might want to check in with ##linux [15:24] waykool99, word, theres no reason to say you are stuck behind a firewall in this age.. [15:24] its a cop out. [15:24] i did last night [15:24] unitypunk: what GPU do you have please? [15:24] got nowhere [15:24] 6670 [15:25] i should be using the open source drivers. [15:25] i dont have FLGRX installed [15:25] but it keeps triyng to load it i tihnk [15:25] ive been in every channel i can think of, ive a million times, looked online [15:25] i dont know what else im supposed to do [15:25] unitypunk: have you installed the fglrx driver? [15:25] @ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7952731/ [15:25] its just not within my knowledgebase [15:25] no, it doesnt work with my legacy card. [15:25] untitypunk. true true. if Skype in Linux doesn't rape your privacy, the nsa will somehow [15:26] i repeat i should be using the OPEN source drivers. [15:26] NOT propritary. [15:26] benyamin: looks good, if you run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get --reinstall install gmusicbrowser [15:26] i know the fglrx ones dont work with my card.

[15:29] benyamin: all I can suggest is report the issue on the google pages [15:29] unitypunk: yes [15:29] unitypunk: on the same line as "quiet splash" [15:29] ActionParsnip: Ok.... but is there any other option to fix it? [15:30] benyamin: not sure, not something I use [15:30] ActionParsnip, taking it ts time reboting.. 1gb ram, 2.1 gigglehertz. you know.. [15:31] Hi, is it possible to install ubuntu server on a spare hard disk on a desktop and then put it into an headless server? [15:32] zermanno, possible: sure. not the normal method but ... yeah. ask #ubuntu-server [15:33] acerimmer, ok thanks [15:33] ActionParsnip, no change whatsoever [15:35] so I unmounted it, then opened disk utility, and did check filesystem, it says "file system is not clean" [15:35] Hi, i have a question. Is swap area needed for raid 6? I will have a raid 1 for ubuntu and raid 6 for storage? [15:36] I went in to 'try ubuntu" [15:36] well [15:36] see theres your problem [15:36] there is no try [15:36] only do and do not. [15:36] lol [15:36] ahmadgbg, swap isn't esential... [15:36] hehe [15:36] someone idea how to change default application for something like folder? [15:36] it didn't give me the option to fix anything tho [15:37] booting to live disk gives you the oppertunity to replace broken things [15:37] with the tihngs that you knwo work [15:37] from the disc [15:37] so copy away [15:38] PaRaD0xx, "try ubuntu" is NOT recommended to "fix" anything - especially an unclean filesystem. === nicolas__ is now known as nicolaslara [15:38] PaRaD0xx: what name is the file system? [15:38] acerimmer: liveCD is great for running fsck in [15:39] ActionParsnip, agreed. [15:39] 58 GB filesystem? [15:39] PaRaD0xx: /dev/sda1 for example? [15:39] PaRaD0xx, that is quite big [15:40] ActionParsnip: I get it. i just try edit the setting on ~/.config/gmusicbrowser/ [15:40] @ActionParsnip: Btw thanks for your help... [15:40] PaRaD0xx: do you have web access in the liveCD desktop? [15:40] benyamin: I try :) [15:41] ActionParsnip, let me see [15:41] @ActionParsnip: Now i must sleep. thanks for all!

[15:54] unitypunk: probably some version of amd's drivers cover your card [15:54] Hi. I'm using openssh-client & -server, version 6.6p1-2ubuntu2. ssh supports the curve25519-sha256@libssh.org key exchange method, but sshd doesn't seem to know it. This has to be a ubuntu bug, upstream definitly supports that algorithm in both ssh & sshd. [15:54] I cannot get either to work I have tried stoping it then starting also restart but nothing [15:54] aranea: what version of ssh is meant to support that? [15:54] either way do you have any other advice other then "Use propriatary drivers" [15:55] unitypunk: yes you could also try another version of the open source drivers [15:55] unitypunk: and you could try different kernel combos === mzaza is now known as Guest33074 [15:55] i dont want that [15:55] unitypunk: although, you should keep in mind how much time you spend on it, and weigh against that time the cost of replacing the graphics device [15:55] unitypunk: you could form an xorg.conf file, it may help [15:55] @capable I cannot get either to work I have tried stoping it then starting also restart but nothing [15:55] i want it to go back to the way it was 24 houors ago [15:55] before the hardware enablement stack [15:55] hi all: i have a problem with eth0 how to configure [15:55] http://pastie.org/9444521 [15:56] so its not like i need to take 10 tabs of lsd to looka t the screen [15:56] jak2000: dhcp is default enabled for all interfaces [15:56] unitypunk: hardware enablement stack?

[15:57] capable: It was introduced with 6.5 [15:57] jak2000: looks fine, the nameserver line is weird [15:57] http://pastebin.com/6E0KKhaM [15:57] take a peak if you understand it [15:57] and I'm using 6.6.1 [15:57] it appears to me im trying to use fglrx [15:57] when its not isntalled. [15:57] it definitly works on other distros [15:57] jak2000, I think you want 'dns-nameserver' [15:57] sda5 is clean [15:57] @capable I don't mind what I use so long as I can get something working [15:57] unitypunk: did radeon.nomodeset=1 help any? [15:57] would be change: "nameserver" to "dns-nameserver" ? [15:57] nno [15:57] no change at all [15:57] its the only way we share are family photos with friends [15:58] Where can I find information about how the ubuntu openssh packages are built, so that I can have a look if I can find the error? [15:58] Are the directories configured correctly at the 3 lines from buttom on http://pastebin.com/8UQResRj [15:58] how to change the default file browser? [15:58] jak2000, in /etc/network/interfaces option dns-nameserver sets the contents of /etc/resolv.conf [15:59] can i remove the line nameserver? [15:59] Hanmac: right click a folder -> open with and select a new file browser and tell the OS to remember the link [15:59] only for test? [15:59] Anyone using GNOME 3.12? [15:59] jak2000: or add to the bottom of /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head [16:00] hmm [16:00] aranea: did you check what sshd is offering ("sshd -T | grep kexalgorithms") ? [16:00] sdsda: it will be default in Utopic [16:00] Are the build sequences (including custom distro patches, configure options and the like) documented somewhere? [16:00] sdsda: the only way to get it otherwise is to compile or use the PPA (which isnt suported here) [16:01] aranea: "OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014" => "kexalgorithms diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, ... curve25519-sha256@libssh.org" [16:02] ActionParsnip, did you see my paste about the "route" you asked me for? [16:02] http://www.pastebin.com/LDEZGgRC [16:02] ActionParsnip: okay, i did select it as default, but it seems it does not solve my problem [16:02] ;-) [16:02] TJ-: sure, KexAlgorithms is set correctly in sshd_config. But on connecting, sshd doesn't report the availability of curve25519 to the client. === mzaza is now known as Guest36329 [16:03] probably a dumb question, but I want to have real per-user authentication for NFS, is the only way to accomplish that via kerberos? [16:03] ActionParsnip /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head is empty right? === jack is now known as Guest68220 [16:03] ActionParsnip: i was just asking if anyone knows how to get the network manager working :) [16:03] hmm [16:04] aranea: "debug2: kex_parse_kexinit: curve25519-sha256@libssh.org, ... diffie-hellman-group1-sha1" [16:04] Hi, Is there a program for linux, to help me create a database to make my own server? [16:04] I installed LAMP allready [16:05] Ironwave: mysql, mariadb, postgresql [16:05] yeah, didn't complain about any errors ActionParsnip [16:05] i want to find all files within a folder which contain the characters: "ab" and "xyz" in the filename. i only know: "$ find /home/folder -name 'ab*' " [16:05] Ironwave, I like postresql , and sqlite work well for local databases. [16:05] sdsda: I geuss I need to search for a lamp tutorial then [16:05] Ironwave: try phpmyadmin [16:06] Ironwave: easy web frontend for mysql [16:06] VanderZar: find /home/folder -name 'ab*' -o -name 'xyz*' [16:06] aranea: And the client: "ssh -Q kex" => "diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 ... curve25519-sha256@libssh.org" [16:06] TJ-: well, not for me. "debug2: kex_parse_kexinit: diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256" on the client side (with "kexalgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256" in the server config) [16:06] maybe if i take this dab [16:06] and put it in the cd rom tray [16:06] sdsda: Thanks for the info. My tutorial is a bit outdated, and I dont know how to go frther. [16:06] my computer will work better? [16:07] hi, how do I install php without installing apache? [16:07] aranea: Then the client is using a custom "KexAlgorithms" for that host, or the user, or the entire system [16:07] logicalguy: For use on the cli? [16:07] Pici, i doesnt work it finds also files with files which contain only "ab" but not "xyz" [16:08] logicalguy, I think what you want is "apt-get install php-cli" [16:08] logicalguy: disable apt recommends, perhaps [16:08] Pici, yeah, maybe, but I am using nginx web server and will use it with that [16:08] does it matter weather it is a .xyz file and i give in the search ".xyz*" [16:08] TJ-: Yes, it is. But that include curve25519 (the value I pasted was the one reported by the server) [16:08] logicalguy: You probably want the php5-fpm package then. [16:08] aranea: bad syntax or spelling then? [16:08] logicalguy: php5-fpm then perhaps [16:09] bah, pici beated me [16:09] okay, hang on === andrex|off is now known as andrex [16:09] VanderZar: the wildcards need to be in the right places. if it is file.xyz then you need to put "*.xyz" [16:09] TJ-: I've checked that. Btw, here's a debug log from the client: http://lpaste.net/992245060076568576 [16:10] aranea: show me your "KexAlgorithms" setting, I'll test it here [16:10] it could be *rh* also? [16:10] aranea: What is "ssh-ed25519" ? [16:10] hey i'm looking for some pdf software which i can merge pdfs and make nested bookmarks [16:10] "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256" on the server, "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org" on the client [16:10] like acrobat pro can do.. any sugggestions [16:10] ActionParsnip: what should I try next? [16:11] logicalguy: if it still trys bringing in apache, then use the --no-install-recommends argument. [16:11] eek, 'tries' [16:11] so I'm installing php5-fpm, what happens when php6 comes along? [16:11] crazyhorse: what's a nested bookmark? [16:11] logicalguy: you install it? [16:11] if you want? [16:11] Pici, no, php5-fpm does not drag in apache [16:11] I am a complete novice but I've been using ubuntu 13.10 with plex media server everything was working great until I just upgraded to 14.04 now none of my devices such as playstation cannot see the media server any more please help? I am total novice so a lot of help is needed lol [16:12] barath: find channels for the software you're using and ask there [16:13] @daftkins please could you help me find would it just be #plex or something else [16:13] TJ-: ssh-ed25519 is a new key format, also introduced with 6.5. It's similar to ecdsa, but uses a slightly different algorithm and, most notably, a different elliptic curve.

[16:16] but nothing for setting up the bookmarks [16:16] master pdf editor says 0.0 or something so won't let me install [16:16] $0 [16:17] well that's a separate problem [16:17] ed25519 and curve25519 use the same elliptic curve by Dan Bernstein, but they work independently from each other. [16:17] @pici thanks [16:17] hello [16:17] TJ-: Does the curve25519 kex work on your server?

I'm not real familiar with this keyboard point you are addressing, can you be more exact in this? [16:58] Beldar: sorry I am giving up on 14.04, may be a bad ISO.....going to indstall 12.4 but still have the same problem, ubuntu will not boot after install [16:58] unclescratchie: Beldar corruption - check ISO, check RAM with memtest [16:59] http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953432/ [16:59] unclescratchie, Will not boot may be a simple problem like missing graphic drivers, so we might try to at least confirm a little more if you have an install.

I have my error-----Executing 'grub-install/dev/sda' failed [17:10] <^Lestat1> I knew I should have stuck with wamp [17:10] RondO, More details are needed for help from the channel, IE did it ever work and any changes as part of the no X, desktop and graphic hardware. [17:10] checking xp to see if it boots ok [17:10] Beldar: It never worked, I literally just installed it. I have an nvidia card in this [17:10] unclescratchie, Yes can you pastebin the info from running parted -l? [17:10] TJ, says command not found... [17:11] i want to change the resolution of my monitor (running nvidia) but nothing happens when i change it in nvidia panel or unity settings, in Xorg.log.0 i see '(WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-1 Using HorizSync/VertRefresh ranges from the EDID for display device CRT-1 (Using EDID frequencies has been enabled on all display devices.)'

I have a problem with connecting my seagate external usb hard disk on ubuntu 14.04... please help [17:11] !nomodeset | RondO try this to see if you get an X [17:11] RondO try this to see if you get an X: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [17:11] how do i set resolution? [17:11] SubSonicgroove_: did you typo? [17:11] kitoke, This a NTFS partitioned HD? [17:12] yes [17:12] Beldar: ok, will try [17:12] Bombo, System Settings > Displays [17:12] I checked it, I typed what you typed.. [17:12] Beldar: no, permission denied, can not communicate with kernel device mapper [17:12] exactly, that is.. [17:12] Bombo, sorry, looks like you wnt there already. dunno about your specific woes. [17:13] kitoke, Note I use your nick. When was the last chkdsk run in a windows environment, and how are you trying to mount it or get it on ubuntu? [17:13] i just realized that the 3 year support for lts also applies to point releases. it's a beautiful day! [17:13] unclescratchie, sorry sudo parted -l [17:13] sudo lspci -knn -s 03:05.0 [17:14] i havent run into checkdisk at all..

[17:14] kitoke, How about the other questions? [17:15] SubSonicgroove_: I'm not sure how/why you'd get command not found [17:15] Beldar: no I cant paste bin...but here may be the problem ( be advised I never had this prob. before so) here is the error...cant have a partition outside he disk [17:15] me either... everything else seemed to work... [17:15] pbx: it says 'unknown display' i'm using: 1024x768 (4:3), want 1360x786 (16:9) when i select it, nothing happens [17:16] !pastebinit | unclescratchie [17:16] unclescratchie: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [17:16] TJ, it worked...! [17:16] unclescratchie, Are you installing from the desktop? [17:16] at least the command did anyway... [17:17] SubSonicgroove_: Good ... so for some reason that "starfire" module isn't being auto-loaded at boot time [17:17] Beldar: I just connected it to my system.. I cant find it under nautilus or disks program... [17:17] SubSonicgroove_: Let's find out why, do: "grep -i '9004.*6915' /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules* | pastebinit" [17:17] pbx: it's a old 16:9 monitor with vga input, and the nvidia got dvi, so i got an adaptor for that, probably thats why it isn't recognised, but isn't there a way to force the resolution? [17:17] Beldar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953569/ [17:17] anyone? [17:18] kitoke, Basically to help we need info like the actual process you are using to get the external to show in ubuntu. [17:18] xp boots just fine, hrm, anybody have an idea? [17:18] Bombo, dunno, sorry [17:18] SubSonicgroove_: "it worked" - I thought you meant the kernel driver was shown as loaded. Did you mean just that the "lspci" command worked? [17:18] okay, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953591/ [17:18] a /win 34 [17:18] Baldar: I went to Disk U tility, it is showing 6 hd's [17:19] SubSonicgroove_: That output is good, that should mean the starfire driver is auto-loaded at boot-time. [17:19] kitoke, USB3? Have you clicked on the HD in the left panel in home? [17:19] okay, i'll give it a try and see what the output is now... bbiab... [17:19] pbx: ok [17:19] unclescratchie, Okay, are there 6 HD? [17:19] thanks for the help my friend... [17:20] Beldar: It hasn't created any sdX entries... so actually I have no idea how to mount it... yes usb3 and usb2 supported... doesn't show up as a device [17:20] Baldar: no, only one, [17:21] kitoke, So this happens when you just plug the usb HD in? [17:21] unclescratchie, The command I gave you is a key here than, why can you not pastebin it? [17:21] can someone please tell me how to connect windows phone in Ubuntu 10.04 [17:21] daftykins, ok im back [17:22] daftykins, Will try to scan now, let's cross our fingers lol [17:22] sudheer, say what you tried, what you expected, and what happened [17:22] Beldar: yes... It never detected it anytime... I dont have windows on my PC... It's my friend's HD [17:22] well, I m trying to connect my windows phone over USB, but it had not connected [17:22] kitoke: Try running "tail -f /var/log/kern.log" just before you plug the device in, if the kernel detects the device, you'll see some useful messages [17:23] daftykins, Still doesn't work... I seriously hate this === stephen is now known as Guest6638 [17:23] kitoke, My guess is that the HD needs to be checked by a windows system, not an uncommon issue. There is a linux version of the check personally I wont recommend it or use it is all. [17:24] DataGG2: it'd be interesting to see what booting a 14.04.1 LiveCD/USB then plugging it in would do. [17:24] ok, shall I run tail -f /var/log/kern.log ...? [17:24] kitoke, If a NTFS as you have confirmed. [17:24] DataGG2: you'd need to debug these programs from this point i guess, but i have no experience with such software [17:25] Beldar: It isn't detected on Windows 7 too... [17:25] kitoke, Not sure than, might worth addressing that in ##windows [17:25] be* [17:26] Beldar: It did have NTFS before this happened... I dont need the data in it... I just want it to work [17:27] 12.04 lts, 4 gig ram, monitor sleeps right before login screen, ran memtest to 60% without issue, ran fsck on filesystem (I think) came back clean, anybody know what I can try to fix this? [17:27] kitoke, Sure, install gparted and see if it shows there, maybe needs a formatting, it wont mount without partitions [17:27] @JT, still the same "unclaimed" not sure what's going on with this card [17:27] ActionParsnip was helping me, but I think he/she left [17:28] Should I mount a data drive that 99.99% of the time should be present, to /mnt or /media ? Someone says /media is managed by udev, so if I want static mounting I should probably use /mnt, right? [17:28] This what I am getting while connecting my windows mobile [17:28] Unable to mount Nokia Lumia 720 (RM 885) [17:28] Unable to open MTP device '[usb:002,003]' [17:28] is there any chance we can fix this issue..? [17:29] Ademan, You can have it auto mount with fstab. [17:29] Beldar: right, that is what I'm doing, but I want to decide which directory to mount to [17:29] Ademan, This an internal or an external HD? [17:29] Beldar: [17:30] kitoke, yes. [17:30] Beldar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953684/ [17:30] Beldar: external, but I almost never remove it, basically only by accident would it ever not be present [17:31] kitoke, I have never used logs, how about the gparted idea, or a pastebin of sudo parted -l [17:31] would reinstalling be a good thing to try? or is there something else to try first? [17:32] Ademan, Not sure why you are concerned with this mount area, I would just plug when needed or use a fstab entry to automount. [17:32] hrm is ntfs-3g still the "correct" way to mount ntfs partitions rw? [17:33] Ademan: just use /media/whatever [17:33] Ademan: yes [17:33] Beldar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953705/ === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as Mohi [17:34] kitoke, Seems to some issue with the HD, no mount anywhere, are you sure it is not fried? [17:35] can anyone give me a hand with pam-mysql? at first I tried on ubuntu 14, 64bit, but pam-mysql gives the error "md-5 not supported with this build" [17:35] kitoke, Or has a non compliant partitioning......etc [17:35] so i even build from source --with-openssl [17:35] to worky. so then I heard it was jus the 64bit version of the build that md5 was broke.. [17:35] tried with the 32 bit version... no worky. [17:35] Ademan: You can also just specify somethiing meaningful anywhere in the filesystem. I use /server/share as a path for net mounts. [17:35] Beldar: there is 5 partitions on the drive, I can not unmount or delete them [17:35] Ademan: /mnt is usually only for temmporary mounts. [17:36] tried compiling from source with apt-get source libpam-mysql... and i get "configure: error: Cannot find pam headers. Please check if your system is ready for pam module development." [17:36] can anyone help? [17:36] SubSonicgroove_: OK, this could be a bug in udev... you're the 3rd person I've seen with this issue recently [17:36] unclescratchie, Ah can we see any proof of that? [17:36] SubSonicgroove_: You can ensure the module is loaded manually with "echo "starfire" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules" [17:36] hey_joe, sometimes there are -dev variants of packages that you need for hand-building. i don't know that particular lib though === dkessel_ is now known as dkessel [17:37] yes in disk utility [17:37] :( [17:37] unclescratchie, 5 primary partitions maybe? [17:37] hey_joe, but do an apt-cache search to see if anything comes up [17:37] Beldar: also the install is trying to install to partition #5 [17:37] unclescratchie, Why can we not get a pastebin of commands? [17:38] Beldar: I'm not sure if its fried... My friend told me she had problems with partitioning before she ran into this problem.... It always refused to make any changes to its partition table... I'm sure it is an mbr type partition table === joel is now known as Guest4238 [17:38] Beladar: no sorry, it is on another laptop, and wifi is not working [17:38] hello all [17:38] ecoe'd back "Starfire" [17:39] kitoke, Not knowing your friends skill set hard to say from here, but that sounds fried a table should be easy. [17:39] daftykins, I'll see what happens with a live CD [17:39] can I install the drivers in a live CD? daftykins [17:39] SubSonicgroove_: Good, it'll also have appended it to the file [17:39] SubSonicgroove_: check that with "cat /etc/modules" [17:40] unclescratchie, Well here pastebin is about the most important too we need to use, without I cannot help. [17:40] DataGG2: sure [17:40] kitoke: Have you tried fsck or smartmontools on it? [17:41] says lp and starfire so, it should be good right? [17:41] ld can find libfftw3f on a 32bit install, but on an (otherwise identical) 64bit install it can't, even though the package claims to include it: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/amd64/libfftw3-dev/filelist [17:41] jhutchins, would have to be a command does not show except in logs. [17:41] and is a ntfs [17:41] jhutchins: nope... can you help me with that? please.. [17:41] or was anyway jhsut [17:41] Beladar: I just need to know how to format the entire drive and get rid of all partitions [17:41] hi [17:42] Beldar: fsck.ntfs is a link to ntfsfix or ntfschk. [17:42] is my dell inspiron n5050 compatible with ubuntu 14.04? [17:42] jhutchins, Not a tool I would recommend, but your welcome. [17:42] hey_joe: "sudo apt-get build-dep libpam-mysql" then "fakeroot debian/rules binary" to build the packages [17:42] kitoke: You could install smartmontools - what does Beldar mean about the logs, can you not access the CLI? === dana is now known as Guest61971 [17:44] kitoke, Give jhutchins your log posts, not much more I can do. === comp is now known as computerxpds [17:44] unclescratchie: To lose the partitions simply do "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=512 count=1" for MBR-based disks, and for GPT use "sudo sgdisk --clear /dev/sdX" [17:44] jhutchins: i will install smartmontools now... http://paste.ubuntu.com/7953684/ I can access the CLI [17:44] kitoke: Then smartctl --all /dev/sdX | less [17:45] Taking updates for USN-2306-1 on Lucid (to libc6 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14) seems to have broken things that use get servbyname, causing them to segfault. Known? [17:45] chmrr: Have you been able to capture a stack-trace? [17:46] TJ-: https://chmrr.net/nopaste/2014-08-04ct6Ir41E [17:46] . [17:46] jhutchins: It hasn't created any sdX entries... so actually I have no idea how to mount it... doesn't show up as a device ... [17:46] pl1x, Boot the live and see. [17:46] chmrr: Can you install the full -dbgsym packages for libc6 ? [17:47] With difficulty, as apt-get segfaults [17:47] Give me a mintue [17:47] TJ-: applying patch 01_openssl.patch to ./ ... failed. [17:47] :/ [17:47] chmrr: If you have a core dump you can do it on a different PC [17:47] hey_joe: Where's that patch from? [17:47] i dunno [17:47] i just ran what you told me too :) [17:48] hey_joe: Your own - not one of the Quilt debian/patches/ I mean? [17:48] i found a how to about modifying a few debian/* files and Makefile.in [17:48] should i revert those changes and re-run? [17:48] pl1x, 2 seconds to find with you r computer and ubuntu on the web. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201105-8079/ [17:49] hey_joe: If the standard package build fails it is likely because you've edited the source, because the same source built on the build servers [17:49] TJ-: libc6-dbg is already installed. Did you mean that, not libc6-dbgsym ? [17:49] TJ-: it worked [17:50] so now i just install this package it made? [17:50] and md5 will work with pam-mysql? === joel_ is now known as Guest48050 [17:50] chmrr: Grrr, sometimes its hard to know where the debug symbols are. Some packages still ship their own -dbg in the main archive, whilst others are properly puilt with the "pkg-create-dbgsym" divert of dh_strip, and end up in http://ddebs.ubuntu/com/ [17:51] meh, still broke. same error: pam_mysql - non-crypt()ish MD5 hash is not supported in this build. [17:51] hey_joe: I have no idea if it will work - I assume you've made some changes to the source to try to have that happen [17:51] Please help, how to increase the parition size of sdb1 using sdb3? http://s7.postimg.org/4h8yzrriz/gparted.png [17:51] hey_joe: you may need to alter the configure options in the Makefile "debian/rules" to enable md5 ? [17:51] gotcha === quix_ is now known as quix [17:52] hey_joe: I think there is a reason MD5 was disabled though - probably security [17:52] but i need it! [17:52] user123321, YOU need a resize of the extended and swap first [17:52] test [17:53] TJ-: http://pastebin.com/ywdL2i1R [17:53] thats my rules file... would i just add something like --with-md5 to the configure line? [17:53] Beldar, Oh ok, I'll try. [17:53] user123321, And not much space than, how much do you want sdb1 to be extended? [17:54] Beldar, Entire space from sdb3 [17:54] What's the first thing i need to do? [17:55] Beldar, Entire space from sdb3 That makes no sense [17:55] hey_joe: Can't you use "pam-mysql crypt=mysql" ? [17:55] user123321, Ah i'm sorry hold on [17:55] Beldar, :D [17:56] The best I can do is https://chmrr.net/nopaste/2014-08-04KMLW_hGH [17:56] TJ-: ^ [17:56] Beldar, I don't need sdb3. [17:56] user123321, YOU can delete sdb3 and the sdb5 and sdb2 and than extend sdb1 and make a new swap. Note do the delete one by one in the order I address them [17:57] Beldar, Cool, ok. [17:58] hey_joe: 'md-5 not supported with this build' is not coming from pam-mysql, my guess is it comes from the underlying crypto library [17:59] user123321, hopefully the partitions being out of order is not and issue here, if so do sdb5 tha sdb3 than sdb2 [17:59] chmrr: So the best clue we can see is "cfree+0x73)" [18:00] i'd like to be able to throw windows from one monitor to another (via key bindings). what do people use for that? compiz "put" extension doesn't visibly work alas [18:00] Beldar, Whil trying to resize sdb1, I get a warning, "moving your partition might fail your operating system to boot", do I need to be worried? [18:01] I see 14.04.1 is available but on my 12.04 systems do-release-upgrade states "no new release found" but docs say that it should be presented once the first point relase is available, anyone know why it's not being offered? [18:01] chmrr: any changes to "/etc/services" ? [18:01] TJ-: Yeah. How does one turn off glibc's helpful "backtrace:" so that gdb can instead catch it. [18:01] TJ-: Nope. [18:01] robgault_: Waiting for bug-fixes to percolate through the system [18:02] Beldar, Oh well, I could fix the grub if it gets issues. I think it's alright. [18:02] TJ-: so 14.04.01 isn't recomended/stable enough to upgrade to? [18:02] TJ-: The system uses nscd to talk to openldap over ldaps:// for auth, which has caused problems in the past, but AFAIK nothing services-related runs over that [18:04] TJ-: Yeah, nsswitch.conf confirms "services: db files" [18:04] chmrr: Looks like the issue is in nscd_getserv_r() [18:04] Beldar, Lol, it seems gparted has added 1 MB of unallocated space in the beginning. [18:04] Now it's moving the sdb1 xD [18:05] The one other backtrace I got (different host, which I backed down libc on already) didn't have nscd in the backtrace [18:05] Let me dig that bt out, one sec [18:05] user123321, That is common no an is issue. [18:05] TJ-: https://chmrr.net/nopaste/2014-08-04rfb5ehgD was from mysql [18:05] how do i disable compiz? [18:06] Beldar, Oh ok, thanks :D [18:06] Well, perl talking to mysql. More or less the identical backtrace arose fro mthe mysql command-line [18:07] Bombo, unity is a plugin in compiz so no compiz no unity [18:07] Oh it's not 1 MB, 7 MB unallocated :) [18:08] and 1 MB in the end [18:08] let me reboot [18:08] user123321, Does not show in the image. [18:08] h === Goku is now known as EvilALL [18:09] Beldar: hmkay [18:09] user123321, Nor would I worry tiny allotments and probably correct for what you have there. === EvilALL is now known as ZKR === [BNC]ColmeneroM is now known as ColmeneroM [18:11] chmrr: Looks like this needs a bug report, it is a severe regression on the face of it [18:12] Beldar, It works, thanks! :D [18:12] TJ-: Where's the right place to report it? === Goku is now known as ZKR [18:13] chmrr: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libc6 [18:13] 404's? [18:13] Ah, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc [18:14] Beldar, Oh lol, the system says the swap is not available, I'll google for re-mapping it back :D [18:14] chmrr: sorry, it's eglibc isn't it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc [18:14] chmrr: which package version is it? [18:14] libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14 [18:14] libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13 was fine [18:15] user123321, Yeah when you get partitions out of order this happens, you are the right track though I believe. [18:15] on* [18:16] chmrr: have you looked at the CVE patches in the source? [18:16] how would I go about building a 32bit binary on a 64bit install? trying to install :i386 dev packages tries to delete everything ever. [18:16] No, I'd not gotten that far. Do you have a link to them on hand? [18:17] user123321, The swap is inside sdb2 still nothing mounted and sdb3 is? [18:17] chmrr: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libc6 [18:17] Beldar, I figured it out.

[18:23] andre_ can you reach the site with the ip address in the browser? if yes, it's a dns issue [18:23] I tried firefox and opera. [18:23] andre_: Do you get an error message?

[18:27] andre_ just the number that ping gives you, right? [18:28] It's over 9000!!! I think that I lost my Ipod!!! [18:28] yep [18:29] TJ-: can you elaborate? [18:29] hello? [18:29] Hello, anyone there? [18:30] or is everyone just getting timeout kicked here lol [18:30] clear [18:30] NegativeDonut: There are over 1,600 people here, if you have a question just ask. [18:31] oh nice, i'm just trying out IRC for the first time using irssi [18:31] NegativeDonut: You might want to play in #defocus then, this is a technical support channel. [18:31] NegativeDonut: error, not a question! =P [18:32] I am too, except with chatzilla [18:32] sweet I'll move over there then, thanks [18:32] TJ-: what do you mean by underlying crypt library? [18:32] what is it using that doesnt support md5? [18:32] NegativeDonut: oh, um, #defocus might give you quite a bad impression of the network =P [18:33] NegativeDonut: Our offical offtopic channel is #ubuntu-offtopic :) [18:33] Hey guys. I'm having an issue with downloading the latest Ubuntu from the website [18:33] I go through the menu and pick Desktop and 64-bit [18:33] and it's giving me the AMD version [18:33] While my computer is Intel. [18:33] tac_: whereabouts are you, geographically? [18:34] tac_: amd64 is the name of the architecture used by AMD and consumer Intel processors [18:34] tac_: amd64 is the canonical name for the 64 bit implementation [18:34] Oh, is that really the case? [18:34] er, what rww said. [18:34] yes, AMD invented it [18:34] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 [18:34] Forgive me for not being up to speed on hardware. Didn't there used to be an intel 64 bit proc design? [18:34] tac_, use it [18:34] it's easier to get a download link from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors also [18:34] tac_: there still is, but it lost [18:35] gotcha [18:35] all right [18:35] Thank you [18:35] tac_: yes, Itanium. It's not used in consumer processors and isn't compatible with amd64. [18:35] amd figured out how to make it backwards compatible with x86 [18:35] (and Ubuntu doesn't offer it I think) [18:35] and cheaper =) [18:35] I feel kinda stupid for not having picked up on that [18:35] tac_: nah [18:35] but at the same time.... I really don't pay attention to hardware trends ;X [18:35] but thank you very much! [18:35] it's not something you should have to know [18:37] capable: as a developer, I really should :X [18:38] MonkeyDust, jhutchins, any idea? [18:39] Also, equally dumb question [18:39] I've seen the number "2GB" thrown around when talking about 32-bit systems [18:40] But 32 bits can adddress 4GB of memory [18:40] Where does that 2GB number come from? [18:41] tac_: https://superuser.com/questions/253633/2gb-limit-on-32bit-operating-systems/253635#253635 [18:41] oh thanks [18:41] I forget if that's a Windows thing or an architecture thing. [18:43] well interesting to know about it [18:43] Hello how I can install additional drivers tool? [18:43] It is missing from my kx studio [18:46] sudo apt-get install software-properties-gtk [18:46] TJ-: For the record, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1352504 [18:46] Ubuntu bug 1352504 in eglibc (Ubuntu) "Regression in 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14; segfault in getservbyname" [Undecided,New] [18:47] or sudo apt-get install software-properties-kde [18:49] I followed this tutorial to set up remote desktop via tightvnc viewer, but I logged out on the remote desktop and now I can't access it https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-setup-vnc-for-ubuntu-12 [18:49] I can't figure out what to do or even what to search for ... any ideas?

[18:53] So I've put my external drive into my fstab, but it seems like gvfs is still trying to mount it, do I need to screw with udev to stop that, surely gvfs ought to be smart enough to *not* do that?... [18:53] Ademan: what'd you add to fstab? [18:54] TeraJL: I haven't found unetbootin's downloader to be reliable, what I do is download from ubuntu mirrors, then tell unetbootin where the file is [18:54] TeraJL,Ademan,capable..tabang mong tulo sumbagay ta..

[18:56] TeraJL let unetbootin do the job, download the .iso, then use unetbootin to extract it to the usb stick [18:56] why would you remove gtk+ 3 [18:56] capable: I was being stupid and wanted to upgrade but wasn't allowing me to do that so I thought to remove that.

I've already installed libdvdcss2 and libdvdread, but some dvds aren't shown, not even with just blkid. I'm currently on Debian. What can I do to fix this? [19:00] hi all [19:00] anyone can recommend me a torrent for ubuntu? [19:01] !torrent | jak2000 [19:01] jak2000: Some torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus/Vuse (Java), !Frostwire (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/help/faq - See also !P2P [19:02] dD_, #debian is the place [19:02] back [19:03] Transmission comes with Ubuntu. [19:06] Beldar, I know, but nobody could answer there :/ I figured the problem should be similar enough in ubuntu [19:06] Here some videos. I hope you like them! http://j.mp/Rh9YfS [19:06] dD_, It would seem that way we just only support ubuntu is all. ;) [19:08] dD_, Probably use of a non free has generated a no response, keep that on the down low there, non free OS can be a bit retentive there. ;) [19:09] We would be glad to have you in the ubuntu clan [19:09] I removed gtk+ 3.0 by accident and now can't connect to the internet. How do i fix this? [19:10] can anybody help me regarding changing from ubuntu to xubuntu [19:10] Beldar, I was in the ubuntu clan. I left it after the amazon stuff happened :/ libdvdcss2 is free though, isn't it? [19:10] pranjal, Probably, address the issue. [19:10] i have install xubuntu desktop [19:11] i had LXDE, i removed it, but the login window is still of lxde [19:11] not of xubuntu [19:11] Can i restart the server while it is creating a raid 6? will it continue after the restart? [19:11] dD_, We all have our issues, both here seem in my opinion trivial and can be dealt with. [19:11] any solution [19:12] Did you purge LXDE? [19:12] yup [19:12] huh [19:12] i mean yes [19:12] weird [19:12] the login window is still of lxde, i don't understand what the problem is [19:13] pranjal, What release? [19:13] even the booting window shows lubuntu [19:13] 14.04 @beldar [19:13] Yeah, it doesn't make sense. [19:13] Oh [19:13] Yeah it does that. [19:14] Once I installed KDE, didn't like the theme, purged it, theme was still the KDE theme, eventually just reinstalled ubuntu. [19:15] please don't suggest of reinstalling, i have already installed my ubuntu 2 times because of terrible system crashes, backuping the data and putting it again, it is just a waste of time [19:15] pranjal there's a fix for that, moment [19:15] ok [19:16] pranjal, sudo apt-get remove lubuntu-logo plymouth-theme [19:16] will that work? [19:16] should [19:16] Anyone have an idea why sometimes when I insert my SD card it comes up but I don't have access to write to it? Its not locked and after a reboot then sometimes I can. Its like completly random when it lets me write to it or not [19:16] ok , i'll try [19:16] pranjal paste this line in a terminal sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth;sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm [19:17] pranjal, Just the install of xubuntu should have replace it if done after a lubuntu /lxde removal, but I suspect you did not go in this order [19:17] whom should i follow, beldar or monkeydust [19:17] pranjal, note MonkeyDust's info as well [19:18] try that first should work [19:18] ok, i'll do the monkeydust's stuff [19:19] pranjal and it's always wise to have backups [19:20] I'm compiling a new kernel based on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel , and it looks like the 'local version' tag I add to the kernel name (to indcate some custom changes) isn't getting propogated everywhere. Some step is looking for lib/modules/linux-*generic rather than lib/modules/linux-*-customblah. The comment just before the failed step is "Remove all modules not in the inclusion list". Any thoughts on how to [19:20] fix this? [19:20] @monkeydust, i worked i think, because it says the theme has successfully changed to xubuntu. Ya, keeping backup is very important indeed [19:20] i'll just restart and check that one [19:20] thank you all [19:21] I removed gtk+ 3.0 by accident and now can't connect to the internet. How do i connect to the internet? [19:21] jkerning, Technically you are on your on there. [19:21] own* [19:21] i did 'apt-get install libopenal1' but get 'E: Unable to locate package libopenal1' [19:21] !info libopenal1 [19:22] libopenal1 (source: openal-soft): Software implementation of the OpenAL API (shared library).

I finally got a new router! heh [19:22] Bombo, ^^^^^^^ I hope you are not rooting your terminal rather than a sudo [19:23] i worked, the booting window changed [19:23] but the login window didn't [19:24] !info libopenal1 | Bombo [19:24] Bombo: libopenal1 (source: openal-soft): Software implementation of the OpenAL API (shared library).

[19:26] having problem configure: error: Can't find gnome-xml library [19:26] pranjal, If it were me I would probably do a reinstall of the xubuntu desktop, but thats just the easy peasy way. [19:26] but i have installed ..libxml2 already .. [19:26] ok, thank you [19:27] Bombo, YOu can look at the list with gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list any # is a off [19:28] Bombo, supported versions are the ones in the ubuntu repos technically. [19:28] Hello? [19:29] R13ose, Gotta practice patience here. [19:29] I know but I am annoyed [19:30] Beldar: says trusty [19:30] Bombo, Am I supposed to guess your release? [19:31] R13ose, Your mistake, annoying the channel is not helpful. ;) [19:32] Beldar: yes I know sorry [19:32] Beldar: nope, in /etc/apt/sources.list it says lots of *trusty* so i guess its trusty [19:32] R13ose, You might find a deb of it if you search to just install. [19:32] Beldar: plus the first line '# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS _Trusty Tahr_ - Release amd64 (20140722.2)]/ trusty main restricted' [19:32] Beldar: how? [19:33] Bombo, Right the cd is supposed to be off, are all repos open? [19:33] R13ose, search the web with exact package and your relase and deb [19:33] I noticed for a while now that sometimes flash in youtube seems a bit delayed. [19:34] Beldar: except for '# deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu trusty partner' [19:34] Beldar: I have no internet on that computer [19:34] When I'm playing a video in chrome and click the back button the video keeps playing and the page doesn't change. The url does change but, seems like there is some sort of lag. [19:34] R13ose, I think you can hit the web from the cli, not sure or how is all, that is all the help I can give. [19:35] Sometimes even when I click the back button ; all the way to the opening page, the video is still playing. [19:35] I highly suspect this is a flash problem. [19:35] Bombo, might try removing # save do an update and try again [19:36] <[GlaDOS]aics> ugh [19:36] configure: error: Can't find gnome-xml library [19:36] help please ... [19:37] Beldar: the internet browser is there but no wireless comnection [19:37] jiwan, No pleading and details for the channel. [19:37] R13ose, Let me repeat, I have given you all the help I can, not an area I really know. [19:38] Beldar: sorry [19:38] I know this'll probably be out of the scope of this channel... but why does the calculator in Ubuntu return (10^89)! as 1? [19:39] Scrivener, probably numeric overflow? [19:39] R13ose: connect with a cable to reinstall things [19:40] Ben64: i tried but didn't do anything [19:40] configure: error: Can't find gnome-xml library [19:40] R13ose: well that'd be easier to get working than wireless [19:40] jiwan, can you give more details? First guess is that libxml2 is missing, perhaps. [19:40] Ben64: trying again [19:40] but i have installed it ... [19:41] still it does the problem.. [19:41] jiwan: pastebin the full command and error you're getting. note i said pastebin. do not paste in the channel [19:41] actually i tried to install dia-0.82 but at ./configure time ..it show me this problem... [19:41] ok ... [19:42] jiwan, might be your PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not correct [19:44] Ben64: I am connected to wired [19:48] i paste it ..how will u see it.. [19:48] ben64... [19:48] http://pastebin.com/b4hC8t5N [19:48] jiwan: You have to give us the URL of your pastebin. [19:48] jiwan: :) [19:48] have u got it.. [19:49] Ben64: eth0 not showing up as connected [19:50] hello. === [1]ralph4100 is now known as ralph4100 [19:52] bekks...??????????? ... [19:53] hello everyone...i have new 18" acer monitor,my problem is i can't get 1280 or above resolution..still 1024 below..any idea please.. [19:53] FD: So whats the native resolution of your monitor? [19:54] 1024x768.. [19:54] picture is so wide.. [19:54] ben64 ????????????? [19:55] FD: So you cannot get more than 1024x768 if the monitor doesnt support it. [19:55] I have a laptop with Windows 8 and UEFI. It has 2 SSD disks, used in RAID0 (seen as one logical disk). after installing Ubuntu I have a message "no bootable device found" and nothing starts, no Windows nor Ubuntu. how to fix that? [19:55] yes.. [19:55] i try search for acer..i can't get it.. [19:55] !ping [19:55] pong! [19:56] jiwan, there really wasn't enough information in your pastebin. What's the command you're running? [19:56] FD: I feel that we might talked about different things. Looking at manual of the monitor, whats the highest resolution mentioned in there? [19:56] i am running ./configure [19:56] I resized Windows partition to make space for Linux, then created ext4 and swap, installed Ubuntu on it successfully - and then I have this message. [19:56] jiwan, what piece of software are you configuring? [19:56] dia-0.82 [19:56] !info dia [19:56] dia (source: dia): Diagram editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.97.2-15ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 158 kB, installed size 586 kB === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [19:57] jiwan: Which ubuntu release are you on? [19:57] jiwan, oh, right, I saw you mention that before; didn't understand that's what you're trying to install. [19:57] actually i have dual os.. i'm running windows 7 and linux..on windows side nothing problem..only in linux i can't run high resolution.. [19:57] jiwan, have you installed libxml-devel? [19:58] i am using customized version of linux based on debian ... [19:58] jiwan: So you arent using Ubuntu then? [19:59] hello bekks..any idea [19:59] not but it is not showing on dependend package .. [19:59] any hints? [19:59] yeah.. [19:59] jiwan: any time you're building from source, you'll need to get the devel packages for the dependencies [20:00] jiwan: And as long as you arent using Ubuntu, you should ask the support of your distro :) [20:00] why this package does shows when i tried to find dependencies by using apt-cache depends dia command [20:00] FD: linux can be picky about the video card - there are limited drivers available. Look around for how supported your video card is [20:00] thanks bekks... [20:01] FD: Looking at manual of the monitor, whats the highest resolution mentioned in there? [20:01] jiwan: apt-cache shows the dependencies for isntalling packages, not for building from source [20:02] then how to find the dependencies for the package for building from source [20:02] i mostly encountered this problem.. [20:02] its too much headeche for me.. [20:03] on windows looks ok ,but in linux the higher resolution is 1024.. [20:03] jiwan: On the current Ubuntu release, dia is at version 0.97.2 - we dont know much about your specific distro, since you are not using Ubuntu. [20:04] i tried other linux like kali linux,manjaru,linux mint still have a graphics problem [20:04] jiwan: building from source is indeed a headache at times. That's why the various package systems are so popular. :-) [20:04] FD: what graphics card? [20:05] Hey can someone help me get my thinkpad trackpoint working? The touchpad works fine but the trackpoint doesn't even show up [20:05] bekks: is there any way .. so that i can find ... dependencies .. for the package that i tried to build from source.. [20:05] jiwan: You have to ask the support of your distro, really. [20:05] BlackPete: Like ... [20:05] graphics card driver for acer monitor,any idea [20:07] FD: post the output of lspci in pasteit.com [20:07] can i download all dependencies all from internet and compile ..it ..manually... [20:07] lspci? [20:07] FD: i mean pastebin.com [20:07] jiwan: We dont know how to do that on your distro. [20:07] so that letter on i could ..install it without internet.. [20:07] can i restore the ubuntu backup from a live cd to another drive some how? [20:07] :bekks:its same on as we do on ubuntu [20:08] not different.. [20:08] do i just jump on a live cd and restore the backup files? [20:08] jiwan: But we dont support your distro. [20:08] FD: it's to find out your graphics card. [20:08] i have 18" acer monitor i can't high resolution.. [20:08] but we support linux... [20:08] jiwan: We dont know nothing about differences, pitfalls, etc. [20:08] currently i don't have ubuntu install on any drive but i need the files [20:08] jiwan: In here, Ubuntu is supported. For general linux support, you can visit #linux e.g. [20:09] jiwan: you can download all dependencies and build it, and then install w/out Internet connection, as long as you include all libraries being used. ldd can help you track down dependencies once you get it built. But this is a difficult and time-consuming task. [20:09] FD: the resolution is limited by your video card, not by your monitor in this case [20:09] thank u blackPete: [20:10] BlackPete: We still dont know the maximum resolution his monitor is capable of. [20:10] yah..i think.. [20:10] but i think it will become .. nice when done job at once.. [20:10] isn;t it.. [20:11] FD: did you install the driver for you graphics card? [20:11] Anyone? Trackpoint issues :( [20:11] no..i didn't..i don't have driver for acer on linux.. [20:12] bekks: we don't, but it's an 18", and he said that the resolution in Windows is higher than 1924x768 [20:12] bekks, FD we don't know the GPU either [20:12] FD: which is why you need to post lspci [20:12] lspci | grep -i VGA [20:12] BlackPete: do i need to install app to do ldd first ???

[21:02] yes [21:03] hujn, what version of Ubuntu are you running? I installed 4.3 on Trusty from the Precise .deb, but they have since gotten 4.3 into the main 14.04 repos.

[21:04] hephaestus_rg that's 'the windows trick' [21:04] asdsd: Well, as i said earlier, if there is a "/etc/init/gdm.conf" then it is upstart, and you need "manual" in "/etc/init/gdm.override"; if it is "/etc/init.d/gdm" then use "update-rc.d... " to disable it from runlevels 2-5 [21:04] hujn, it will work, I installed it. However, now you can just install it the normal way: sudo apt update && sudo apt install skype [21:05] TJ-: "manual" is the only word to put in that file? [21:05] asdsd: Yes, exactly as I am showing in quote marks [21:05] thanks [21:05] asdsd: As in, everything I write *inside* quote-marks is what you should use [21:08] sethj: not apt-get? what is the diff between apt and apt-get? [21:08] apt-get uses apt uses dpkg [21:08] man apt-get, etc. [21:08] hujn, in 14.04 they enabled shorthand, apt-get to apt. sorry for the confusion. [21:09] it's the same thing.

[22:20] that sounds like a 'yes' [22:20] TeraJL: This ?? -> apt-cache show software-properties-gtk <- . [22:20] jak2000: Well, the default is set by the wlan interface by the look of that "192.168.4.1" [22:21] Ideally X server doesn't run locally at all. [22:21] how to change? to 192.168.0.254 ? [22:21] jak2000: Are you configuring wlan0 manually, or via Network Manager [22:21] Network Manager / Dhcp [22:22] jak2000: And are you using the Network Manager GUI dialog boxes to configure that ? [22:22] not [22:22] unclescratchie: My :57 entry refers -> sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit <- for assistance . [22:22] jak2000: you are using nmcli? [22:23] TJ- need go to a metting with my boos, return in 1 hour, thanks (escuse me i apreciate your help) [22:23] Mdgd`: Have you looked into rdesktop or VNC? It basically gives a window on your desktop which is the same as the desktop on the other machine [22:24] BAshing: cannot [22:24] I'm familiar with both but I've always used them as an application running on a local GUI shell, I'm wondering if they can substitute it entirely. [22:24] Mdgd`: substitute what entirely? [22:24] Bashng: the laptop Im working on will not connet to the net [22:24] Gnome/KDE [22:25] Mdgd`: rdp/vnc are not desktop environments, if that's what you're asking [22:25] unclescratchie: cannot, is not in our vocabulary .. can you boot the liveDVD of ubuntu ? [22:25] Mdgd`: why not just full screen rdp/vnc? [22:25] Mdgd`: Here just some things you can check: xpra, remmina [22:25] Mdgd`: oh is that all you want? [22:25] Bashing: yes. can not format the hd [22:25] xpra is similar to screen for X applications [22:26] capable, that's what I'm getting at. Basically what I'm looking to change a boot sequence from kernel -> X -> Gnome/Plasma, to kernel -> X -> remote shell [22:26] he can probably just run bare startx and start up gnome-panel through ssh -X [22:26] remmina is a multi-purpose client (plugin based) for all things like vnc, NX .. [22:26] Mdgd`: okay, that's simple [22:26] NX can also do per-application [22:26] Mdgd`: my favorite way to do that is to use openbox instead of a DE, and just have its autostart script call rdp/etc. [22:26] ^ [22:27] Mdgd`: what do you exactly mean with remote shell, why do you need X then? [22:27] meltingwax, I'm trying to standardize it in an office. All environments running on an ESX machine, or similar if I wind up needing something else. [22:27] you _can_ actually run X without a wm, but it's not worth it =P [22:27] unclescratchie: Hint: start ytping the nick - to address one of us - and tab completes // can you boot the liveDVD? , so we do have internet connectivity .. the command will complete just fine in the live environment. [22:27] I don't want to involve a local shell and ideally I want to cut out any user level interaction with the HDD completely. [22:28] Mdgd`: you can feven use an ordinary DM (m, not e) setup to choose between GNOME/KDE, or "openbox" (which uses the fullscreen remoting app) [22:28] Mdgd`: you want it kind of protected against any local accesses? [22:28] can even* === carlos is now known as Guest11143 [22:28] bluesceada, it's for a network in a non-permissive environment. The server has low level encryption on the drives containing the environments. [22:28] Mdgd`: oh, you might be interested in LTSP, then [22:28] kind of depends on what you're after === cdmsn is now known as cdmsn|awy [22:29] ah not LTSP, then, probably [22:29] non-permissive means? [22:29] Potentially hostile. [22:29] ok [22:29] Bashing: the lpatop Im working WILL NOT connect to the net.....I installedd Ubuntu but grub failed and did not install and some hardware did not install [22:30] Mdgd`: probably needs it's own concept if it is really security relevant [22:30] bluesceada, so the server boots with authorization and maintains all data in an encrypted fashion. I want the users to connect to it for their shell to ensure any files or whathaveyou are stored safely. [22:31] Mdgd`: that could be a job for LTSP [22:31] Mdgd`: ok but in the end you will also need to secure the clients, which will be quite tough [22:31] Hi, Good night. [22:31] ohallot: hi [22:31] otherwise a privileged user might login over a mailicous client ... [22:32] can someone tell me how to fix a broken apt database? I have a borked package that impeach me of using any dpkg or apt command. [22:32] bluesceada, I figure if I can connect them using an encrypted SSH session I'm in the ballpark. And the privileged thing is why I don't want local shells. [22:32] ohallot: in English, 'good night' is for parting =) 'good evening' can be for either [22:32] no particular reason why [22:32] you need both hardware and software secured clients [22:32] They log in, supply their account password and log into the remote desktop. If things go sideways we take down the server and everything becomes inaccessible. [22:33] like, not complete physical access to the client [22:33] Mdgd`: how might they go sideways? [22:33] capable, generally put, raids. [22:34] interesting [22:34] Mdgd`: so do you even want computers there, or just monitors and peripherals? [22:34] You're thinking networked KVM? [22:34] It's a good idea.. [22:34] Mdgd`: I just wanted to know what you were after [22:34] Mdgd`: definitely look at LTSP, it's what you want [22:34] is there a tool to fix the apt package database? [22:34] I also still dont understand 100% the requirements... [22:34] Right. Ideally no local harddrives other than for a bolted down terminal OS if necessary. [22:35] bluesceada: yeah =P [22:35] Mdgd`: don't need one [22:35] unclescratchie: If you do not use my full nick, any reply may get lost in all this // type 'bas' and hit the tab key to complete the nick - it will be highlighted in my IRC client // as to your disk problem .. let's look and see what the partitioning is -> fdisk <- tells us this // now IF that hard drive is hammered up, and GParted will not cope with it .. there does exist other tools ( very much time !) we can try // 1st show us what you are wo [22:35] might be lost in that ^ spam [22:35] Thanks for the leads though. I'll look into LTSP and openbox. [22:35] Mdgd`: network boot? [22:36] Mdgd`: terminals, they're all of a computer but the computer, which is elsewhere [22:36] they used to be more popular, when computers took up whole rooms [22:36] Sounds like what I'm looking for bluesceada [22:36] now they're popular just for efficiency's sake [22:36] centralization, etc. [22:36] Bashing: please be patiant. I cant type fast [22:37] Chromebooks are almost terminals, they have very little local OS or data storage [22:37] Mdgd`: this just depends if the network hardware is capable, but I think most modern network hardware should be [22:37] Hey folks, quick question: do I need to run `apt-get update` manually, or will it be run next time I install something? [22:37] almost 100% terminals, I should say [22:37] Bashing-om,: ok [22:38] bluesceada, I've found the diskless Ubuntu doc. This is what I was looking for. I'll check it out and have a look at the other two subjects to see if it might be preferable. [22:38] Mdgd`: be sure to secure against possible hardware manipulation, putting a keylogger between keyboard and computer is very easy... [22:38] unclescratchie: I am in no hurry .. take as much time as needed .. BUT please if you want my attention, get it by using my nick ( Bashing-om) // OK you got it ! thanks .. it helps heaps . [22:38] well, you can't really secure against that =) [22:38] Bashing-om, : the hd drives a small partition of 1.0 kb it set as boot and will not deleat [22:38] all you can do is expect it [22:39] whitby: You need to updating apt after adding repo or updating your system. [22:40] Okay. So running `apt-get install xyz` after adding the repo won't see it until I run `apt-get update` [22:40] bluesceada, that's another security matter though. For this specifically, I'm trying to account for an unstable environment with no real institutional protection against a group trying to just seize the hardware. [22:40] unclescratchie: I understand there is a problem with that partition // I ask again, boot the liveDVD that you used to install ubuntu -> try ubuntu mode -> will give us a working environment . [22:40] Mdgd`: I dont quite understand [22:40] Bashing-om: I think '.' is the punctuation you're searching for [22:41] Mdgd`: you mean data, right, not hardware [22:41] this is not just seizing hardware, they could keylog on a user with privileges and use that data [22:41] whitby: Exactly, "apt-get update" meaning your system's refreshing your repo db. [22:41] Bashing-om, : not sure I understand... [22:41] Awesome, thanks pdo_fn14! [22:42] pdo_fn14: what a mouthful [22:42] capable, the hardware and the data on it. [22:43] Mdgd`: but why else care about the hardware if not for the data? [22:43] bluesceada, yes they could. But I'm not talking about electronic but physical protection. [22:43] capable, fair enough. [22:43] doesn't matter, LTSP is still what you want [22:43] you risk only monitors and keyboards/mice [22:43] switches and things [22:44] Mdgd`: but you will need to physically protect it, or otherwise people can insert a keylogger between keyboard and the client hardware... [22:44] I'm sure he's going to put a lock on the door [22:44] i really don't understand your requirements, your are not being exactly clear .... [22:44] he's not, but keyloggers are irrelevant [22:44] why are they irrelevant? [22:45] since they are a (largely unstoppable) concern for any system [22:45] all you can do is compartmentalize the data [22:45] on the server end [22:45] and then a non privileged user logins with privileges he got by keylogging ... [22:45] that is, keyloggers are not a concern unique to terminal computer labs [22:45] bluesceada, they're a separate issue. The case I'm talking about here is a group of gunmen entering the building. [22:45] bluesceada: you can't get privileges you don't have by keylogging [22:45] Bashing-om, : so I should boot from livecd but not sure what ubuntu mode is [22:45] yeah not unique to that of course [22:46] a user without root access, for example, can never give away root access [22:46] Mdgd`: ok [22:46] and that is not a terminal concern, it's just an ordinary OS concern [22:46] Or more mildly "authorities" doing so without the usual legal protection you're accustomed to here. [22:46] capable: of course [22:46] if the data is encrypted, and remote, and they can only exploit one or some finite number of users at a time, you should be fine [22:47] in fact it wouldn't even have to be encrypted, but that'd make it even simper [22:47] simpler [22:47] Well the reasoning here is that if any such thing happens the server goes offline. Making coercion of the users kind of pointless. [22:47] yeah it all depends on your requirements.. [22:47] Mdgd`: such as what? =P [22:47] unclescratchie: IF you are working with GParted installed onto the hard disk you are working on ,, GParted will not function, as tht partition in all likely hood is mounted. You need to work with GParted from another source, as in the liveDVD -> try ubuntu . === joel_ is now known as Guest2378 [22:48] Any specialist in apt- management? Help to repais a broken package database? [22:49] Bashing-om, : live cd is in, so i ma going to boot , correct? - [22:49] ohallot: what is exactly broken [22:49] maybe apt-get -f install already helps? [22:50] unclescratchie: Correct, and will get to the screen with 2 options 'try ubuntu' and 'install ubuntu'. Choose 'try ubuntu' . [22:51] bluesceada: believe me , I googled a lot before joining this chanel. a borked pakage cannot be removed or reinstalled. [22:51] Bashing-om, : hong on, dropped mouse and battery came out stand by [22:51] ohallot: paste the erroneous output on e.g. http://nopaste.info/ and show the link here, that might help [22:52] bluesceada: thanks for your help.. but before, hoe can I make the output be in english in the shell? (so that you can understand) [22:53] what language is it [22:53] pt-BR [22:53] umm ok... [22:53] try export LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" [22:53] and export LANG="en_US" [22:53] (in the same shell before you run the apt commands) [22:54] and one more important thing: how did the problem start? [22:56] Bashing-om, : ok ready [22:57] What's the best way to install a specific set of packages from the Precise repos into Trusty? (Geeqie 1.1 removed a feature I used in Geeqie 1.0 and introduced a crash) [22:58] unclescratchie: Great .. the key combination crl+alt+t will get a command line interface ( terminal ) .. now do you have internet ? in the terminal what results from the command -> ping -c3 8.8.8.8 <- ? [22:59] Bashing-om, : no the laptop i am try to fix does not have internet, ubuntu 14 is not recognzing some of the hardware [22:59] bluesceada: http://nopaste.info/6dd1d90043.html [23:00] TJ-: Sorry, was idling. "Both" is unfortunately the answer. [23:01] unclescratchie: How old is this laptop ? Is the internet connection wireless or wired ? ( wired I can work on ) . [23:01] TJ-: I guess to test, amd64 is easiest [23:01] Bashing-om, : Dell inspiron 1721.... wifi will not turn on [23:01] chmrr: OK, I've got an i386 build going right now [23:02] ohallot: ok and how did this happen originally ? [23:02] i mean, when did it screw up [23:03] TJ-: OK -- let me see which of my i386 userspace VMs will make a good test victim [23:03] did you try to remove with apt-get remove ? [23:03] unclescratchie: Yuk .. you do not have access to a wired connection ? // It is often the case that drivers for the WIFI are not available ( too many of them to put on the install disk). [23:03] bluesceada: this morning I installed libreoffice 4.3 from ppa. But it is really not good so I uninstalled it. Then it borked. [23:04] ok.. [23:04] uninstalled with apt-get ? [23:05] bluesceada: I used apper. [23:05] Bashing-om, : complicated, but no........I just dont know why I cant format the whole hd..... [23:05] and you could also try dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq libreoffice-base [23:05] bluesceada: Already did. [23:06] hm :S [23:06] Hi all! Anybody on Kali? [23:06] but it seems to be only the packages problem, wonder why that cant be get rid of [23:06] !kali | IdolNinja [23:06] IdolNinja: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [23:07] bluesceada: as I said, I googled a lot, and I went ofte to man dpkg. I know this is a package DB in incosistent state. A rotten bit somewhere. [23:07] ohallot: try dpkg -r libreoffice-base and directly after apt-get -f install [23:07] no wait... hmm [23:08] this deb you have there is from the official repos? [23:08] The appearance menu in system settings has disappeared, how do I bring this back? [23:08] bluesceada: dpkg: error processing package libreoffice-base (--remove): [23:08] package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should [23:08] reinstall it before attempting a removal [23:08] yeah i have seen, sorry [23:08] this deb you have there is from the official repos? [23:09] what is compiz and why's it using up all of my cpu? [23:09] bluesceada: ppa for LibreOffice 4.3 [23:09] sorry all 4 of my cpu's [23:09] chmrr: I'm uploading to my PPA so the PPA-builders might be quicker :) [23:09] TJ-: Yeah, the Oracle VM can suffer as a i386 test machine. Let me know when there's a finished build for me to test [23:09] unclescratchie: Man this do make thing tough, as I can not know what you are doing. With out seeing that 'fdisk' output, it is diificult to make any advisements . The simpler thing to do at this point of a new install, is try it again- with ubuntu as the sole operating system installed -> in the install choose "erase disk and install ubuntu" .. the installer will do just that, erase the entire hard drive, and install ubuntu in a default configur [23:09] Yeaaaah, probably. :) [23:10] ohallot: ah no, that one was a problem right? then try the official === ace is now known as tot [23:10] apt-get install libreoffice-base [23:10] chmrr: see https://launchpad.net/~tj/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [23:10] libreoffice ppa needs a lot of testing [23:10] Bashing-om, : negative.......sorry, goes through the install and at the very end error "unable to install grub, must do it manually" [23:11] bluesceada: root@olivier-ntbk:/var/cache/apt/archives# apt-get install libreoffice-base [23:11] Reading package lists... Done [23:11] Building dependency tree [23:11] Reading state information... Done [23:11] E: The package libreoffice-base needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. [23:12] unclescratchie: IF the system is installed all but grub, it is possible to install grub manually from that liveDVD .. [23:12] ohallot: strange, is it named differently from official repos? [23:12] try apt-get update before if you didnt do recently [23:13] bluesceada: I removed the ppa repo to get the official. But libreoffice-base is broken inside the database, that is my explanation why it prevents apt to work *on any command* [23:13] Bashing-om, : here is what I have in terminal.......fdisk -l (output )....device boot= /dev/sbd1...but then I do fdisk /dev/sdb1 nad the output is ---no such file or =directory [23:14] hmm, try apt-get remove --purge libreoffice-base [23:14] bluesceada: Already did! [23:14] uh :S [23:14] what did it say [23:14] chmrr: Have you considered a strategy to install the new libc? [23:14] bluesceada: :-( :-( [23:14] brute force... [23:15] backup first in case it gets worse: [23:15] so first .. make some temp directory somewhere and [23:16] mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/libreoffice-base* /your-temp-directorys-path [23:16] mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/libreoffice-base* /your-temp-directorys-path/ [23:17] unclescratchie: Let's try this approach to get grub installed, and see what happens. the command is "sudo fdisk -lu" and in that out put one of the partitions is marked under the boot heading with a '*' . tell me what partiton is this boot option set to. [23:17] TJ-: I was just going to dpkg -i it. That worked fine for both upgrading and downgrading from the broken version previously. [23:17] bluesceada: ok. makes sense. [23:17] ok .. then try again dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq libreoffice-base ... === p is now known as Guest27087 [23:18] or apt-get --purge remove libreoffice-base (or both ..)

[23:19] TJ-: Network _in_ tends to work fine. As has wget and other things which happen to not use getservbyname. [23:19] (this might have some sideeffects to have some files of the package still somewhere on the system, but which will hopefully/mostly be overwritten later by the non-broken package) [23:19] Guest27087: yeah, but it might be more work than "reinstalling" [23:19] now that i'm on 14 i try to login and i get a popup window saying ubuntu system program problem" [23:19] unclescratchie: IF fdisk can not see that hard drive, there is indeed a serious problem . What results from the command -> sudo parted -l < -? [23:19] and that's it. i have a background and a pointer. [23:19] Bashing-om, : be advise that particular partition is only 1.0 kb ( which I dont understand) but I can not remove it [23:20] chmrr: That's good to know :) [23:20] capable: I want to give it a try... restoring all the media and services would probably be more work anyway [23:20] Bashing-om, : also it is set as BOOT [23:20] capable: how would I do it? [23:20] i tried moving my old home directory in case it was a dot-file issue and created a new home with nothing in it. went back to X11, logged in and still - NOTHING. [23:20] chmrr: And if it all falls apart, I can drop the VM, mount it from the dom0 host, and fix it from there. But yeah, ssh'ing in and scp'ing file onto the host is fine.

[23:21] pdo_fn14_: so it is not possible? [23:21] Guest27087: because an upgrade is just moving data around, it's always possible [23:21] capable: i upgraded from 8 to 10 to 12 to 14. [23:21] ballison: no, what happens when you try to use your desktop [23:21] capable: my desktop worked fine in 8, 10 and 12 [23:21] chmrr: OK, keep an eye on the build progress of my PPA uploads then [23:22] capable: nothing happens. i can move my mouse but i have no windows, no options, no menu bar. it's like a desktop without a window manager running.

[23:27] ohallot: you're welcome .. but wait, before you continue, there might be now really orphaned files from the package [23:27] bluesceada: and BTW I am one of the developers of LibreOffice, and founder of The Doucment Foundation. My laptop has thousands of development packages I was very sad to loos and rebuild the environment. Thnks indeed. [23:27] jak2000: Network Manager won't (by default) manage an interface you've manually configured in 'interfaces' [23:28] IF this didnt just screw up because of the package, you might want to try install + uninstall again ... but at least install a newer version or something [23:28] bluesceada: the orphaned files are gone [23:28] oh ok cool [23:28] i am, configured in interfaces (/etc/network/interfaces file) [23:28] apt-get install ubuntu-desktop returns the same as apt-get install gnome-session. "already the newest versino" [23:28] so why did upgrading to 14 break everything. [23:28] ? [23:28] ohallot: founder O.o [23:28] jak2000: But as I said earlier, your problem was that the wlan0 connection has a different default gateway, which takes over when that interface comes up... you can change that in the Network Manager GUI connection editor, by choosing the connection's IPv4 tab, then in the "Method" drop-down menu select "DHCP (addresses only)" [23:29] TJ-: again, i moved my home directory to another name and created a new one and tried again and got the same problem. no window manager. [23:29] i'll create a test user just to try [23:29] ohallot: if I have some questions with libreoffice next time I am using it, I will come back to you ;-) [23:29] ballison: try: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop; sudo apt-get build-dep ubuntu-desktop [23:29] ballison: There should be a Guest account, it's what we generally recommend testing these issues with to isolate per-user config issues [23:29] bluesceada: please be my guest [23:30] bluesceada: http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/board/the-board-for-2012-2014/ [23:30] TJ-: I tried a second user account and the exact same problem [23:31] bluesceada: I take that /var/lib/dpkg/info is where the package info is stored. [23:31] ballison: any clues in "$HOME/.xsession-errors" ? [23:31] TJ-: i also tried a different session (gnome-flashback-compiz) and same thing... no window manager [23:31] ohallot: holy redundant URI! [23:31] Tj- turned off wireles network card, and now the result of sudo ip route ls is: [23:31] ballison: also, look at the logs in "/var/log/lightdm/" and also "/var/log/syslog" [23:31] 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.88 [23:32] ohallot: don't ask me about details, with debian/ubuntu I am mostly a user [23:32] it is also the scripts for post install / post removal which did some troubles on your side [23:32] hello, I want to buy a switch and a ethernet PCI card. is there a side where i can compare companyes? (Which company makes better switches etc.) [23:32] TJ: in .xsession-errors there's a "unable to open file ' /usrshare/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmp' for reading . 1 error encountered, aborting." [23:32] bluesceada: actually I came here because the debian guys refused to help when I said it was ubuntu.. go figure... [23:32] maybe removing those would also have been enough [23:32] jak2000: That won't bring back the default route, you need to have it set correctly, and change the way the wlan0 interface deals with its DHCP lease options [23:33] ballison: That looks useful :) [23:33] ohallot: oh lol, I am actually a "debian guy" ... I use debian on all my machines :D [23:33] unclescratchie: Tell ya waht we can do .. is use the tool 'dd' (disk destroyer) to wipe that hard drive ... if 'dd' can not wipe that disk .. then indeed that disk is not worth hasseling with. // but take an hour per gig to wipe it out to start all over again. [23:33] but also used some ppas from ubuntu ... [23:33] Bashing-om, : that partition is "boot-hidden" [23:33] TJ: there is no /usr/share/apps/kxkb directory. what installs that? it didn't get install when upgrading from ubuntu 8 [23:33] Guido1: not really, ask #hardware [23:33] wwaht/what* [23:34] ballison: I think you have some legacy config pointing to that file, but it is no longer shipped in 14.04... the solution would be to find where the file is referenced, and remove that reference [23:34] Bashing-om, : did you see my last comment? [23:35] OK guys... have a good evening. And thank you for the support [23:35] ballison: Try "sudo grep -rn kxkb /etc/*" in case there is a system setting somewhere [23:36] unclescratchie: I am thinking what "boot-hidden" could mean .. I have never encountered it .. maybe some lind of Windows secure booting scheme ? . [23:36] lind/kind* [23:36] this seems to be a major bug in ubuntu. i'm not the only one hitting it.... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xinit/+bug/300028 [23:36] Ubuntu bug 300028 in xinit (Ubuntu) "[intrepid] Can only login using failsafe Gnome: "unable to open file '/usr/share/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmap' for reading"" [Undecided,Expired] [23:36] ohallot: see you .. i will also sleep now .. [23:37] Bashing-om, : new on me it is only 1.0 kb....kinda small for boot isnt it? I dont know how big a boot sector is [23:37] ballison: Seems the file you want to remove is "/etc/X11/Xsession.d/80ubuntu-xmodmap" then [23:37] TJ: it's being called from /etx/X11/Xsession.d/80ubuntu-xmodmap [23:38] unclescratchie: A boot sector is just that. A sector size of 512 KB . [23:38] Bashing-om, : could it be a root kit? [23:39] TJ: moving it did nothing. [23:39] is there a way I can change the shortcuts in the KDE menu? [23:39] TJ: still no window manager. still no windows. right and left click do nothing. i have a background image and a mouse pointer and that's it. [23:39] I want to insert "optirun " before the commands to open some games [23:40] trying to force 12.04 to use Yasm 1.20...no luck! Anyone offer some assistance? [23:40] ballison: Have you looked at the other solutions further on, like removing the "$HOME/.xsession" and so on if it exists? [23:41] coolstar: how do you execute these commands? [23:41] Bashing-om, : the reason I ask that is the reason I have the laptop.....the person I got from said it would not come on........I got the laptop to turn on and now this [23:41] TJ: the .xsession-errors says, "OpenConnection: connect: No such file or directory. Cannot connect to btrltty at :0" [23:41] coolstar: ...yes? [23:42] coolstar: You'd need to add a custom .desktop file in "$HOME/.local/share/applications/" I'd think [23:42] trying to force 12.04 to use Yasm 1.20...no luck! Anyone offer some assistance? [23:42] ballison: btrltty is the braille tty I think [23:43] I'm googling like a mad man, but it seems 12.04 wants to use the older version of Yasm even if I've installed the latest [23:43] hey folks; how do i change compiz so alt tab treats each window as a different application? right now its doing this annoying behavior of combining windows of the same app. ubuntu 14.04 [23:43] TJ: then it says, "init: Unable to register as subreaper: Invalid argument" [23:43] Matt23456: how are you trying to start it? [23:43] arooni-mobile: run ccsm, it'll be in there somewhere [23:43] capable, i looked there first [23:43] i dont konw what option it is [23:43] TJ: then it says, "at-spi2-registryd main process ended, respawning" over and over. [23:43] arooni-mobile: look more [23:43] TJ - I used the instructions here [23:43] arooni-mobile: yes there are many options [23:43] https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu [23:44] i'm just really surprised that upgrading to ubuntu 14 is so broken. i should have stopped at 12 [23:44] TJ: so it downloads and installs the latest Yasm, but Ubuntu still goes back to the older version when I run a make [23:45] ballison: well, should use a distro you can upgrade =) [23:45] ballison: "at-spi2-registryd" is the Assistive Technologies helper [23:46] unclescratchie: I agree a 1.0 Kb partiton makes little sense // At this point I think again that the disk is better wiped with 'dd' and see what results. [23:46] ballison: it sounds as if the system had assistive technologies enabled in 8.04, 10.04 and that settings for those haven't been properly updated/removed through all the release upgrades you've gone through [23:47] TJ: I may have misunderstood the question, what did you mean by "start" it? [23:47] TJ: gnome-session-is-accelerated: No composite extenstion. gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 256 gnome-session: CRITICAL **: We failed, but the fail whale is dead. Sorry...." [23:48] Matt23456: when 2 exectuables share the same name, the first one to be found in a search of the $PATH environment variable is the one executed. "which yasm" will tell you which one that is. [23:48] TJ: Is there a way i can just reconfigured X11 all together? [23:48] TJ: Yes, the --version says it still sees the old one [23:48] ballison: X is working fine, it's your DE that isn't [23:48] TJ: so i need to mod the env variable for Yasm? [23:48] 's'why I suggested reinstalling it [23:48] capable: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1274013 [23:48] Ubuntu bug 1251281 in gnome-session (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1274013 xrdp from gnome-session-fallback shows static gray screen via remmina or vinagre" [High,Triaged] [23:48] ballison: That looks like it could be video driver config issue, is the hardware old? It seems to be saying that no compositing extension were loaded by the X server === nesthib is now known as Guest47533 [23:49] ballison: you're remoting? [23:49] "+ gnome-session is broken without 3d acceleration, breaking gnome-" [23:49] why do I even bother asking the questions... =P [23:49] Matt23456: Not necessarily... I'm guessing you've got the package-installed version at "/usr/bin/yasm" and the self-compiled version at "/usr/local/bin/yasm" - is that correct? [23:49] here's my guess - X11 needs to be reconfigured for 3D since apparently according to these errors gnome-session does not work without 3d anymore. [23:49] TJ: I believe so [23:50] ballison: something might need to be but it's not X [23:50] if you see a screen and a movable mouse pointer, X is working [23:50] that's all X does [23:50] Matt23456: Does yasm have a "--version" option you can test each with, to confirm which is which? [23:50] TJ: Yes this is old hardware. this box is about 6 years old. Single core Intel system. It was running Ubuntu 8 when i turned it on yesterday. [23:50] TJ: Yes yasm 1.1.0.2352 [23:51] TJ: which yasm: /usr/bin/yasm [23:51] Matt23456: the thing is, "/usr/local/bin/" appears first in the path so the newer version ought to be executed *but* if the older version has already run this session, then the shell will have cached the path in its has cache, so you need to clear that [23:51] TJ: I think the video driver needs to be reconfigured to support 3D... not sure how to do that. X --config [23:51] TJ: how do I clear said cache? [23:51] ballison: if all it has is intel onboard graphics, you might well be better off with xubuntu-desktop or lubuntu-desktop [23:51] Matt23456: "hash -d yasm" [23:52] ballison: If there is a "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" I'd recommend renaming it to something like xorg.conf.old ... the X server now auto-configures itself [23:52] - acceleration [23:52] + gnome-flashback (metacity) fails to start without hardware acceleration, [23:53] ballison: you could also try: sudo apt-get install openbox && DISPLAY=:0 openbox --replace [23:53] TJ: is there some way to test after that command? --version shows the same one [23:53] Matt23456: "yasm --version" will report the one found first on the path [23:53] Matt23456: whereas "/usr/bin/yasm --version" and "/usr/local/bin/yasm --version" will report from the exact installations [23:54] TJ: moved /etc/X11/xorg.conf fixed it. that's it. thank you [23:54] my feeling was correct X11 needed to be reconfigured. [23:55] now it's working and i have that hideous Ubuntu desktop. :) [23:55] thanks. i'll fix it from here. [23:55] ballison: Phew! [23:55] TJ: I just tried to run the libx264 compile again and it's not seeing the 1.2 ver [23:56] Matt23456: Are you running the compile in the same terminal you ran "hash -d yasm" in? [23:56] yes [23:56] TJ: yes [23:57] Matt23456: also, if after you ran that command, the first command you ran called "/usr/bin/yasm" that will be cached again :D ... so "hash -d yasm" then "/usr/local/bin/yasm --version" then try compiling :) [23:57] TJ: PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/usr/local/bin/yasm" --enable-static --disable-opencl [23:57] Hi, I have a dhclient issue : /var/log/upstart/network-interface-eth0.log:28:can't create /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases: Read-only file system [23:58] Matt23456: That "bindir" looks incorrect, I'd have expected it to be just "/usr/local/bin/" [23:58] I don't really know about the boot sequence, but is that possible that dhclient starts just too early ? [23:58] littledude: "Read-only file system" [23:58] yeah [23:58] TJ: ok, changed the "yasm" and its still seeing the older one [23:59] but cat /proc/mounts shows that / is rw [23:59] TJ: Found yasm 1.1.0.2352 [23:59] Minimum version is yasm-1.2.0 [23:59] If you really want to compile without asm, configure with --disable-asm. [23:59] Matt23456: Hmmm, something weird going on there [23:59] TJ: thats the error it keeps flagging [23:59] is it possible that dhclient starts whereas the fs is still read only ?
