| cyclob|work | hi guys really need some help on getting a script working in 14.04 | 00:01 |
| pooltable | help installed java and flash | 00:02 |
| expunge | pooltable: oh my, that is troubling | 00:02 |
| pooltable | yes | 00:02 |
| user42381 | the pulseaudio volume control is only showing the dummy output device. | 00:02 |
| cyclob|work | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/53fab7bc6140d175fc4c < here is the script when i try to run it i get an error [Java framework] Error in function createSettingsDocument (elements.cxx). | 00:02 |

| ryan_46 | slb: You ask a good and important question. I don't know the answer. I think I read once that pointing it at the Windows efi boot partition would overwrite it and destroy Windows boot.partition. Haven't read any how to examples that said point it to efi boot partition specifically. Some have said make a specific efi partition yourself. Most seem to use /sda and end up using boot repair or BCDedit or some such. But I really want to know the | 00:09 |
| Eric^^ | i was trying it on a VM, i got mixed answers from google. | 00:10 |
| Eric^^ | unfortunately it stalled after the installation/ | 00:10 |
| Eric^^ | (slb & ryan_46) | 00:10 |
| slb | yes Eric^^ ? | 00:11 |
| Eric^^ | did you install? | 00:11 |
| expunge | Eric^^: what vm? | 00:12 |
| cyclob|work | hmm okay.. i get a "Warning: failed to read path from javaldx" error when trying to run headless libreoffice any ideas on what's causing that? | 00:12 |
| Eric^^ | expunge: virtualbox, usually it never hangs but it seemed to consume alot of cpu and act up cause i set it in efi mode | 00:12 |
| expunge | mmm | 00:13 |
| Eric^^ | the installation went alot quicker, would explain the cpu usage i guess | 00:13 |
| === cdmsn is now known as cdmsn|awy | ||
| slb | Eric^^, you tried it both ways in the VM? | 00:16 |
| Eric^^ | slb: i'm trying to install it to /dev/sda1 (efi partition) now, | 00:17 |

| qtrain | having problems with nodejs and 13.10 can anyone assist? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25170723/error-with-nodejs-and-express | 00:18 |
| Beldar | qtrain, 13.10 is eol. | 00:18 |
| qtrain | i know but some of the stuff I use wont work on 14.04.. can i not ask questions about old distro? | 00:19 |
| Beldar | cyclob|work, I believe so let me know when you figure it out I need that to. | 00:19 |
| cfhowlett | qtrain, you can ask about supported distros. | 00:20 |
| Beldar | qtrain, 12.04 is supported for another 3 years. | 00:21 |
| cyclob|work | Beldar: do you need 32bit java specifically or just java? | 00:21 |
| Beldar | cyclob|work, 32 bit | 00:21 |
| Beldar | on 64 bit os | 00:21 |
| Beldar | cyclob|work, I saw indicators ou can on a 64 bit, just the correct install is all I believe | 00:22 |
| Beldar | you* | 00:23 |
| cyclob|work | yeah should be easy only the 32bit version isn't in the repos so have to manually install it | 00:23 |
| Beldar | cyclob|work, I saw web pages with all the commands just need the correct release is all when I looked, Ijust was not in a real hurry is all. | 00:24 |
| user42381 | I'm having trouble finding system, preferences, sound. anyone know where it might be? | 00:25 |

| gartral | soooo... I have an interesting question.. say I have an SSHD that needs a driver to operate... can I somehow force it to use a portion of, or all of the "SSD" part of the disk as swap? | 00:36 |
| slb | gartral, i've heard that you will kill an SSD by putting a swap on it. SSDs apparently don't need a swap partition | 00:38 |
| gartral | (note, I mean Solid State Hybrid Drive, not Secure SHell Daemon) | 00:38 |
| gartral | slb: I.. really don't care.. I have a computer with maxed out ram... need more memory... swap on magnetic disks is paaaaainfully slooooow | 00:39 |
| slb | gartral, up to you | 00:40 |
| gartral | slb: but it is possible to do what I want, yes? | 00:40 |
| Scunizi | pooltable: some parts of java on google chrome have been removed by google (linux only until later this year then everywhere else). If you're having an issue with a site try it with Firefox | 00:40 |
| slb | gartral, theoretically i suppose so, but i have never done it | 00:40 |
| Eric^^ | gartral: it seems it adds more wear and tear | 00:41 |
| slb | when asked for device for boot loader installation, should i specify the actual EFI partition that computer came with (e.g., /dev/sda2) or just the hard drive (/dev/sda)? | 00:41 |
| slb | asking again | 00:41 |
| Beldar | slb, The modern SSD has a same life as a spinning. | 00:41 |
| Beldar | pooltable, java -version in the cli | 00:44 |
| slb | why won't usb live 14.04 let me create an ntfs partition?? | 00:44 |

| pooltable | but brower still not working | 00:45 |
| gartral | slb: it... depends.. is this a UEFI 1.1 or 2.0 system? | 00:45 |
| Beldar | slb, yo9u can't install ubuntu to it is all, what is the end goal? | 00:45 |
| Eric^^ | slb: the vm hanged at the end again, though while installing i saw it say "running grub-install /dev/sda1" | 00:45 |
| === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| Eric^^ | slb: when installing grub the command is grub-install /dev/sda .. so i dont know | 00:45 |
| Eric^^ | slb: for what it | 00:45 |
| slb | gartral, its a UEFI, not sure which one | 00:46 |
| slb | Eric^^, thanks for checking | 00:46 |
| Eric^^ | *it's worth when i installed ubuntu i didnt change anything that had to do with the bootloader installation | 00:46 |
| slb | Beldar, ?? | 00:46 |
| Beldar | pooltable, Go to addons-plugins make sure it's on. | 00:46 |
| Eric^^ | (running efi too here) | 00:46 |
| slb | Eric^^, i went one step back and then "something else" to manual partitioning step a couple of times, and it defaults to /dev/sda | 00:47 |
| slb | so that's what i'm going with | 00:47 |
| Beldar | slb, You are not really saying why you need a ntfs question marks mean nothing, we can't read you mind. | 00:47 |
| slb | ok, got your question now | 00:47 |
| pooltable | IcedTea-Web Plugin (using IcedTea-Web 1.2.3 (1.2.3-0ubuntu0.12.04.4)) in firefox | 00:48 |
| Beldar | pooltable, As well not working is not enough details, some on site java needs have to be the latest version too | 00:48 |
| pooltable | now get to work on chrome | 00:48 |
| pooltable | how to ? | 00:49 |
| Beldar | pooltable, How to what, be detailed. | 00:49 |
| gartral | slb by default ubuntu sets up a UEFI/MBR booting system, easier to do, but slower to boot... a UEFI/GPT system boots very fast, but is a headache to setup, and becomes a royal pain if you dual-boot | 00:49 |
| Beldar | never seen any slower boot info | 00:50 |
| pooltable | beldar want java to work | 00:50 |
| Beldar | pooltable, yes that is obvious. | 00:50 |

| pooltable | beldar only thing i always for get with new install of ubuntu | 00:51 |
| Beldar | bmhatfield, Heh how would we know. | 00:52 |
| bmhatfield | Beldar: Because a USN is an "Ubuntu Security Notice"? | 00:53 |
| pooltable | beldar java version "1.7.0_55" is what i have is it up yo date? | 00:53 |

| cfhowlett | bmhatfield, what's in the repos is what's available | 00:53 |
| bmhatfield | Of course. | 00:54 |

| jim1 | hello,why my log file is 10 gigs of space?ty | 01:05 |
| keith2 | if i want to use truecrypt to encrypt a partition, then during installation of 14.04, when partitioning, i assume i would just create a partition, but not have it mounted, since truecrypt would mount it when i needed it visible, right? | 01:05 |
| expunge | jim1: it's either old or verbose or both | 01:05 |
| Beldar | jim1, lots of errors, never cleaned, you guess | 01:05 |
| jim1 | i have bleachbitd installed | 01:05 |
| jim1 | i do everyday scans of cleaning up garbage | 01:05 |
| expunge | keith2: sounds good | 01:05 |
| Beldar | jim1, look through, heh. | 01:06 |
| jim1 | i must delete some stuff then | 01:06 |
| keith2 | expunge, all i need to do is note the partition number and tell Truecrypt to encrypt it later | 01:06 |
| keith2 | right? | 01:06 |
| expunge | keith2: yarp | 01:06 |
| expunge | keith2: though the number will be easily discerned later | 01:07 |
| expunge | mostly you need only leave space for it | 01:07 |
| expunge | if you want it on a separate partition | 01:07 |
| jim1 | me>? | 01:07 |
| keith2 | expunge, i have some particular size requirements, and dual boot, so have to make sure it is "reserved" | 01:07 |
| expunge | keith2: right, leave space for it =) | 01:08 |
| VRMac | I'm trying to build siklon's cpuminer, and I'm running into syntax errors in automake that I haven't had on my other systems. I have all dependencies and compilers installed. | 01:08 |
| Beldar | jim1, We generally preface with nicks when addressing another, you have yet to. | 01:08 |
| keith2 | bizarrely, i will have 9 partitions | 01:09 |
| expunge | that is bizarre | 01:10 |
| keith2 | one windows recovery, one windows efi, one mystery windows (sager?), windows OS, windows data, /, /home, truecrypt one, swap | 01:11 |
| Beldar | that is a normal uefi OEM | 01:11 |
| keith2 | beldar which is a normal uefi oem | 01:11 |
| Beldar | with ubuntu split into 3 partitions anda efi | 01:11 |
| Beldar | it's gpt no biggie | 01:12 |
| keith2 | beldar what could the 100 mb mystery one be that linux install can't identify file system | 01:12 |
| keith2 | Beldar, gpt? | 01:12 |
| Beldar | keith2, Probably a firmware of more likely the uefi boot, no idea here, other than I have consistently seen 6 partitions in windows uefi installs | 01:13 |
| keith2 | the ones i created were windows data, /, /home, truecrypt one, swap | 01:13 |
| Beldar | probably why it's gpt for one reason | 01:14 |
| keith2 | Beldar, there was one efi fs one | 01:14 |

| Beldar | keith2, Not a confidence issue but being prepared for any contingency. You are sailing without a all weather wet suit | 01:21 |

| pooltable | java version "1.7.0_55" | 01:46 |
| Beldar | Guest94463, So why you not using the nicks we love you by? | 01:46 |
| pooltable | how to get chrome to work ? | 01:46 |
| Guest94463 | ? | 01:47 |
| daftykins | pooltable: you can't, chrome does not work with java plugins anymore. | 01:47 |
| daftykins | pooltable: focus on firefox only - http://askubuntu.com/questions/354361/how-to-install-java-plugin-in-firefox | 01:47 |
| expunge | fajar_kasimbar1: should probably not use that password any longer =) | 01:47 |
| Beldar | Guest94463, You have the same IP of a nick thats been here over the last couple of days. | 01:47 |
| Guest94463 | aha | 01:47 |
| Beldar | cough zw | 01:47 |
| NowWeAreTwo | expunge: lol, I was thinking that... dont feel too bad fajar_kasimbar1 I did that once.. not on such a populated irc chan tho. | 01:48 |
| expunge | outing someone for no particular reason is incredibly bad etiquette | 01:48 |
| pooltable | i like chrome | 01:48 |
| Beldar | hiding your nick is not much better | 01:48 |
| LapJup | expunge: what's a rainbow table? | 01:48 |
| expunge | as long as we agree what you just did was quite bad | 01:48 |
| expunge | LapJup: wikipedia knows =) | 01:49 |
| Beldar | sorry I disagree this user has bee nothing but trouble | 01:49 |
| NowWeAreTwo | LapJup: http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/5e/f0/4e/5ef04e041d2f6f06b10841ad7a62fdef.jpg | 01:49 |
| expunge | is he being trouble right now? | 01:49 |
| Beldar | using wubi when told the down low yes | 01:49 |
| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: ha | 01:49 |
| expunge | Beldar: right... | 01:49 |
| Guest94463 | oops sorry i got caught up in somthing im back now | 01:50 |
| Beldar | overusing the channel due to just not thinking yes | 01:50 |
| keith2 | yes, must be punished i tell you! | 01:51 |
| keith2 | lol | 01:51 |
| === Eric^^ is now known as Guest38212 | ||
| expunge | I really don't care what he might have done, ever | 01:52 |
| Guest94463 | so i tryed to do the install through boot menu and...boot error is what it said | 01:52 |
| expunge | you do not out people who have not already volunteered their identity | 01:52 |
| pooltable | ok now opera | 01:52 |
| Jkup | hello all simple bash question here, if i need to create a program that identifies a 1 of 2 files by searching for a string in the directory, what would be the best way to do this, and than open the file that it found and dump contents into seperate file? | 01:52 |
| expunge | it is abhorrent, immoral | 01:52 |
| * expunge moves on | 01:52 | |
| expunge | Jkup: it might be more than one file? | 01:53 |
| Beldar | Jkup, #bash maybe | 01:53 |
| pooltable | ok opera works | 01:53 |
| pooltable | now chrome | 01:53 |
| Jkup | I asked bash, no repsonse, sorry | 01:53 |
| Guest94463 | it is not like im spaming the channel | 01:53 |
| keith2 | Guest94463, no worries from my end | 01:54 |
| Guest94463 | okay good thank you | 01:54 |
| keith2 | ask away | 01:54 |
| keith2 | my previous advice stands | 01:54 |
| Beldar | Jkup, what does lsb_release -a say? | 01:54 |
| keith2 | make a live usb for 14.04, boot with it, follow prompts, tell it to install ubuntu where xubuntu now is | 01:55 |
| pooltable | why is chrome not support java any more or ubuntu ??? | 01:55 |
| Jkup | and also,file 1 contains the string adult, file 2 does not, i set up a grep command to search for string adult than save it to a variable but it doesnt save just the file name, it saves the entire answer | 01:55 |
| expunge | pooltable: I'm sure you could make it, but it might be involved | 01:55 |
| expunge | pooltable: the web in general is going away from java | 01:55 |
| expunge | pooltable: everything is | 01:55 |
| expunge | it's an insecure, childish, poorly maintained paradigm | 01:55 |
| expunge | Jkup: use grep -l | 01:55 |
| Jkup | YES! | 01:56 |
| SchrodingersScat | Jkup: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/ | 01:56 |
| Jkup | thank you so much, such a simple answer i need to do more research lol thank you | 01:56 |
| expunge | Jkup: also there are a number of ways you can parse grep's ordinary output, but -l is handy in this case | 01:56 |
| Jkup | now to dump it into a seperate file lol, thanks | 01:56 |
| pooltable | expunge or any way around it for chorme or will it by pass it ? | 01:56 |
| expunge | Jkup: sep-a-rate | 01:57 |
| expunge | Jkup: a very unreliable way to do this would be: cp -n $(grep -l foo file1 file2) bar | 01:58 |
| daftykins | pooltable: chrome has broken support for the NPAPI, you will not get java plugins working anymore, so don't waste your time trying. | 01:58 |
| expunge | pooltable: I would imagine there is a way, but I don't know it and have no motivation to find it | 01:58 |
| daftykins | expunge: no, there isn't a way | 01:59 |
| samthewildone | how do I turn off screen saver ? | 01:59 |
| expunge | daftykins: I would imagine there is | 01:59 |
| expunge | samthewildone: why? | 01:59 |
| daftykins | expunge: no, they broke the NPAPI - it's game over | 01:59 |
| samthewildone | im trying to watch a fucking movie | 01:59 |
| expunge | daftykins: I would imagine there is | 01:59 |
| pooltable | daetykins i see thanks i just read that will they chrome ubuntu fix this soon or a way around this? | 01:59 |
| Jkup | newb question warning, is foo actually a command or just a quirky programmer thing? | 01:59 |
| expunge | samthewildone: in what application? | 01:59 |
| samthewildone | the screen keeps going dark | 01:59 |
| samthewildone | vlc | 01:59 |
| expunge | Jkup: it's the universal first placeholder | 02:00 |
| daftykins | expunge: ok but don't mislead users with your stubborn opinion | 02:00 |
| expunge | Jkup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar | 02:00 |
| expunge | daftykins: never do | 02:00 |
| Beldar | for no particular reason is incredibly bad etiquette | 02:01 |
| Jkup | i c | 02:01 |
| expunge | samthewildone: I know how to do it with mplayer, you might ask #vlc about VLC | 02:01 |

| Dragin | Can someone please help me with the "make command? This is what I type, and the output I get... make rscw.c make make: Nothing to be done for `rscw.c'. | 02:02 |
| Dragin | make: *** No rule to make target `make'. Stop. | 02:02 |
| SchrodingersScat | samthewildone: otherwise settings on your buntu machine and type in 'screen saver' and check 'power' as well because maybe theres' something about the screen in there. | 02:03 |
| Beldar | Dragin, What is the app, and have you read the read me, and what can give in detail basically? | 02:03 |
| === karstensrage_ is now known as karstensrage | ||
| samthewildone | thanks I found it | 02:03 |
| SchrodingersScat | samthewildone: also there are tools for x like xautomation, where you can have it move the mouse for you, or press keys. If you make a short loop of the mouse picking random coordinates then you could avoid that whole bee's nest. | 02:05 |
| Dragin | read the readme... It sends me to a web site that doesn't go into how to install it. I am guessing that it assumes I already know how. The file I am trying to compile is called rscw.c (It makes my computer talk to my radio to decode Morse Code) | 02:05 |
| expunge | well, you can just send xscreensaver-command -deactivate at that point | 02:05 |
| keith2 | expunge, Beldar daftykins , anyone really, copying /home from backup drive to new machine, should i just copy the docs and the profile folders for the apps i use (thunderbird, firefox, j-pilot, etc.) or copy all of /home to new machine | 02:05 |
| expunge | keith2: you can copy all | 02:06 |
| expunge | keith2: use rsync -apv path/to/orig/ path/to/home/ | 02:06 |
| expunge | keith2: actually -ap is faser, and running again with -apv will make you feel good | 02:06 |
| Scunizi | keith2: If you're doing a fresh install I suggest making a partion just for /home so on the next reinstall you don't have to mess with it. In the mean time copy everything in /hom | 02:07 |
| Dragin | here is the entire content of the ReadMe file.... See | 02:07 |
| Dragin | http://www.cs.utwente.nl/~ptdeboer/ham/rscw/ | 02:07 |
| Dragin | for more documentation. | 02:07 |
| keith2 | Scunizi, did that | 02:07 |
| Scunizi | keith2: smart :) | 02:07 |
| SchrodingersScat | Dragin: so you entered the directory after using tar, and ran make? | 02:08 |
| Dragin | yes | 02:08 |
| Beldar | Dragin, Way beyond ubuntu support however this a tar and are you familiar with that? | 02:08 |
| aliteralmind | Newbie question: Do you have to create the nobody user, or is it already there? | 02:08 |

| aliteralmind | This account is currently not available. | 02:08 |
| Dragin | a little bit. I just used the archive manager to unzip it. That is as far as I have gotten though | 02:09 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: sudo su? | 02:09 |
| Beldar | Dragin, Not the correct way to unpack. | 02:09 |
| Beldar | !tar | 02:09 |

| svetter | hi there, has anyone heard of any timeframe for updated openssl packages in ubuntu repos? | 02:10 |
| expunge | svetter: updated to what? | 02:10 |
| Scunizi | svetter: should already be done.. if you're referring to the issues the banks had recently | 02:10 |
| svetter | https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140806.txt | 02:10 |
| svetter | today | 02:10 |
| Dragin | do I just type tar foo then to unpack it properly? | 02:11 |
| Beldar | svetter, This a weakness based issue and you were here earlier with another nick? | 02:11 |
| svetter | what? | 02:11 |
| svetter | no, i always had that nick :) | 02:11 |
| Beldar | svetter, Someone was here earlier asking about this just wondering. | 02:11 |
| svetter | i wouldn't ask twice | 02:11 |

| expunge | ConnorTiberg: hi | 02:13 |
| Beldar | ConnorTiberg, Probably, should we guess. ;) | 02:13 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: yeah I remember you | 02:13 |
| Scunizi | ConnorTiberg: don't say HI.. just ask a question :) | 02:14 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: you could create the account, but why does it want you to be "nobody"? | 02:14 |
| matty | Hello, Question I know Mint is an off shoot from Ubuntut, but does that mean that everything that works on ubuntu can work on Mint, and any installation steps using "apt-get" is the same? | 02:14 |
| ConnorTiberg | Well,I can use the terminal command"sudo apt-get install uodate" | 02:14 |
| ConnorTiberg | I can't | 02:14 |
| expunge | matty: yes | 02:15 |
| ConnorTiberg | I don't know why,always fail! | 02:15 |
| expunge | matty: excluding potentially the choicest repos, they probably have their own | 02:15 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: http://goo.gl/0Dw0ZQ, under step nine. It so the web server can be under user nobody, for security. | 02:15 |
| Beldar | ConnorTiberg, It's sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get upgrade | 02:15 |
| Scunizi | ConnorTiberg: uodate isn't in the ubuntu repositories.. not sure what that is. | 02:15 |
| Dragin | Thanks SchrodingersScat | 02:15 |
| TJ- | ConnorTiberg: "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade" | 02:15 |
| matty | expunge: Thank you, and just to clarify if any website has ubuntu steps, its the exact same in MINT | 02:15 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: I don't see anything about sudo su nobody on this page | 02:16 |
| expunge | matty: mint is ubuntu | 02:16 |
| expunge | matty: they have their own repos I think | 02:16 |
| expunge | matty: and some small alterations | 02:16 |
| TJ- | matty: In theory, but not 100%. If packages and dependencies, or {pre,post}install scripts do different things, then things may be different | 02:16 |
| matty | expunge: Thank you again | 02:16 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: "sudo su" was just my mad newbie non-skills. | 02:16 |
| Beldar | +1 | 02:16 |
| expunge | matty: most instructions for any debian based distro will be about 98% applicable to any other debian based distro | 02:16 |
| SchrodingersScat | Dragin: after that, make errored out on me because I don't have the deps installed, but it found the Makefile at least. | 02:17 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: so... what was the problem? | 02:17 |
| ConnorTiberg | But the terminal said can not download some file because verify HASH fail | 02:17 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: I'm referring to the config file in step nine: user="nobody" | 02:17 |
| matty | awesome thanks guys | 02:17 |

| NowWeAreTwo | My question. When running minecraft.jar and going full screen, I get a ghost image of my desktop. the game continues to run in the background but does not crash. is this a java issue or game issue or driver issue? how do I find out how to fix this?.. answer when evs... | 02:17 |
| ConnorTiberg | No,I'm a greenhand linux user and I use ubuntukylin | 02:18 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: When I attempt to start the gunicorn /django server, it's saying | 02:18 |
| Scunizi | aliteralmind: I don't think that means you need a "nobody" user.. it's just a way of limiting access or granting access I believe. | 02:18 |
| aliteralmind | "NameError: name 'nobody' is not defined" | 02:18 |
| TJ- | ConnorTiberg: which Ubuntu release and Linux kernel versions are you using ("cat /etc/issue" && uname -r") ? | 02:18 |
| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: ghost image? | 02:18 |
| expunge | aliteralmind: read the comments referring to 'nobody' on that page | 02:18 |
| aliteralmind | Scunizi: Precisely the reason is being used. | 02:19 |
| NowWeAreTwo | yeah, like a snapshot of whats whats behind the minecraft window. | 02:19 |
| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: it's see-through? | 02:19 |
| ConnorTiberg | Ubuntukylin 14.04LTS and the kernel version is 3.13.0-32.generic | 02:19 |
| NowWeAreTwo | damn you google. http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/archive/legacy-support/1732247-fullscreen-in-ubuntu-issue | 02:19 |

| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: or http://linux.about.com/od/gmr_howto/a/hwtgmr05t01.htm | 02:20 |
| NowWeAreTwo | expunge: not see thru.. it just doesnt render the minecraft screen... also my extended display goes dead when I try this. | 02:20 |
| Scunizi | aliteralmind: those are instructions if you don't want to run gunicorn as root. personally if it's designed to run safer in a root environment then I would keep it that way. | 02:21 |
| TJ- | ConnorTiberg: Give us the URL that this reports "pastebinit < <(sudo apt-get update)" | 02:23 |
| aliteralmind | Scunizi: Well, I can do that since this is only for me showing off at interviews, not a production environment. If I can't figure this out, I'll leave it that way. | 02:23 |
| Scunizi | aliteralmind: good luck :) .. might be a question for the dejango channel or mail list | 02:24 |
| jhutchins | aliteralmind: look in /usr/share/docs/gunicorn/ for a README file and other documentation that explain how to set it up. | 02:25 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: Got it. To be honest, I never even noticed the comments. I needed to surround it with SINGLE quotes. So their instructions are wrong AGAIN. | 02:26 |
| === slb is now known as keith2 | ||

| aliteralmind | scunizi, jhutchins: Thanks for the help. I'l'l take a look at the gunicorn docs. | 02:26 |
| keith2_ | expunge, that's odd, tested that with one folder and it copied files from the folder, but not the folder itself | 02:26 |
| keith2_ | what's wrong with a simple cp -R | 02:26 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: By that I mean user='nobody' | 02:27 |
| aliteralmind | Instead of user=nobody | 02:27 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: Thanks again!! | 02:27 |
| expunge | keith2_: it's not resumable, and permissions come into play | 02:28 |

| ConnorTiberg | Give me the URL please:) | 02:29 |

| SchrodingersScat | keith2_: also a good idea to --dry-run the first try | 02:29 |
| expunge | I should've said oldhome/ newhome/ | 02:29 |
| expunge | s'okay | 02:30 |
| expunge | if they're already copied you can just mv them now | 02:30 |

| Newbiee | im first time using ubuntu | 02:32 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: You'd think that an error they themselves corrected in the comments TEN MONTHS AGO, would be updated in the actual instructions... | 02:32 |
| NowWeAreTwo | expunge: okay, gonna try running it from a term then.. this is gonna be wierd. | 02:32 |
| TJ- | ConnorTiberg: Give us the URL that this reports "pastebinit < <(sudo apt-get update)" | 02:32 |
| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: yeah | 02:33 |
| aliteralmind | expunge: I could deal with learning a little bit less ;) | 02:33 |
| expunge | NowWeAreTwo: if it works, you'll go to tty8, probably | 02:33 |

| SpeendaSh | Hello everyone i have a question about USB : i am a Xubuntu user and just recently one port USB stopped working when i plug a Bluetooh key the light flash but it's not recognise and it does the same for other USB devices... any idea of what could be the problem ? it was focntionning perfectly it's the 1st time it's doing this | 02:37 |
| SpeendaSh | (all the other USB port worked perfectly fine) | 02:37 |
| SpeendaSh | works* | 02:37 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, You are eol. | 02:37 |
| TJ- | ConnorTiberg: Do this "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* " then re-try "sudo apt-get update" - if there are no external proxies interfering that ought to work | 02:38 |
| Beldar | !eol | Newbiee look at eol upgrades | 02:38 |
| ubottu | Newbiee look at eol upgrades: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 02:38 |
| Newbiee | Beldar what is eaol meaning | 02:38 |
| Newbiee | ok one moment please | 02:38 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: The port is probably damaged from having devices pushed in and pulled out of it - often-times the solder on the pins tears away from the PCB tracks, or goes 'dry-jointed' | 02:39 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, Oh flop... it's weird cause i was rarely using it though... | 02:39 |
| knob | Hello everyone =) | 02:39 |
| expunge | heya knob | 02:40 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: Is it a laptop or desktop system? If a desktop, is it a front port on the chassis, or a rear port attached to the motherboard? | 02:40 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, It a desktop one, it's one the back on the motherbord | 02:41 |
| knob | o/ expunge :) | 02:42 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: That's unusual - it is usually the front ports that suffer more. That port is attached directly to the motherboard (probably in a cluster of other ports such as keyboard, network, and so on) ? | 02:42 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, right... that's why i found it weird myself... it was working perfectly and i was reallyr arely using it... it's just as suddenly stopped working... yes it is attached directly to the motherbord. | 02:44 |
| SchrodingersScat | I have one like that, it charges my e-cig now. | 02:44 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: Do you see error reports when connecting devices in "/var/log/kern.log" ? | 02:44 |
| knob | Hey guys, I am going to setup an ftp service on my server. I will migrate in the near future to scp, yet for now, ftp is the only way to go. I am running 14.04. Does this link still apply? vsftp? https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/ftp-server.html | 02:45 |
| SpeendaSh | SchrodingersScat, lol right... atthe moment that's the only thing it could do... charge up my phone ... that would be so lame... ): | 02:45 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, eum... how can i see this ? when i plug it is nothing happen just that the device light shine. | 02:45 |
| expunge | knob: scp is so much simpler, and secure | 02:45 |
| knob | I ask because the link states it is for 10.04 | 02:46 |
| * Beldar dreams of a e-cig smart phone | 02:46 | |
| knob | expunge, I know dude I know... yet there truly is no other way at the moment. | 02:46 |
| knob | Beldar, I can link you to a e-cig with Bluetooth... what it does? I am not sure | 02:46 |
| SchrodingersScat | I'm having a hard time thinking of why you would have no other option than ftp. | 02:46 |
| Beldar | and microwave | 02:46 |
| knob | SchrodingersScat, expunge , because the machines that are right now dropping files into the old server are running ftp. These machines are thousands of miles away. No remote access. | 02:47 |
| knob | So I have to setup ftp, and then I get around to changing them over to scp. | 02:47 |

| spigot | so why would some of my fn keys seem to randomly work/not work? this is a samsung netbook, so its using samsung-tools | 02:47 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: If that port is even half-working you should see some messages in the kern.log as the device is plugged in. I usually put a tail on the log-file and watch it as I connect the device, as in "tail --follow /var/log/kern.log" | 02:47 |
| knob | I am already 30-35% done in the transfer... yet the server move needs to occur tonight. | 02:47 |
| spigot | last boot, brightness and fan control were working, but not volume. reboot! volume works, fan control, but brightness does nothing. | 02:48 |
| aliteralmind | I just changed a directory's ownership, and I didn't even need to look it up on the web. Thank you. Thank you very much. | 02:48 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, i'm sorry i'm pretyt much a newbie at this lol what is the "kern.log" ? | 02:48 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, Do you mean it's a command line ? | 02:49 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: It is where the Linux kernel writes all its messages about hardware events, processes going bad, and so on | 02:49 |
| spigot | there's not a word in any log I can find, and it makes little sense to me that from a fresh boot (not from restore from a sleep state or hibernate), some would work and others wont. If I reboot again, its random if both brightness and volume (fn+ up/down vs fn+ left right) will work | 02:49 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: Yes, at a shell command-line in a terminal | 02:49 |
| Newbiee | how do you find codename of your ubuntu? | 02:50 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, oh ok... so what command line do i need to write in the terminal ? | 02:50 |
| TJ- | spigot sounds like an ACPI problem | 02:50 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: "tail --follow /var/log/kern.log" | 02:50 |
| spigot | Newbiee: try "lsb_release -a" | 02:50 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, Thanks i'll give it a try just a sec | 02:51 |
| spigot | Newbiee: in a terminal, type that command, that is. | 02:51 |
| patchman | i have a chromebook w/touchscreen running Ubuntu 14.04... the Unity Launcher does not respond to touch events, such as opening a program... how to fix? | 02:51 |
| Beldar | spigotI would check the web and askubuntu with the release the exact model and variations of fn and uses, your samsung-tools are not really in use per-say in linux I suspect | 02:51 |
| Newbiee | thanks | 02:51 |
| Beldar | spigot, ^^^ | 02:51 |
| spigot | TJ-: could be. something is taking those fn+left/right presses and doing nothing with them, not even an error. that's what gets me. | 02:51 |
| Newbiee | its quantal. but says No LSB modules are available. | 02:52 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: IF all you want is the "codename" terminal command -> lsb_release -dc <- will tell you that. | 02:52 |
| Newbiee | do i need it? | 02:52 |
| patchman | i have a chromebook w/touchscreen running Ubuntu 14.04... the touchscreen works (mostly) but the Unity Launcher does not respond to touch events, such as opening a program... how to fix? | 02:52 |
| patchman | *carification | 02:52 |
| Newbiee | ok thanks you guys | 02:52 |
| spigot | Newbiee: no, sorry, listen to Bashing-om - I was just recalling the command from memory, giving you a bit more information than you need. don't worry about any messages about missing lsb modules | 02:52 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, YOU have 12.10 quantal, the link you showed says that. | 02:52 |
| SchrodingersScat | knob: seems it's up to you. I didn't see anything jarring in that page | 02:53 |
| knob | SchrodingersScat, thanks!! I am running it now. Just installed it... going to remove anonymous login from the .conf | 02:53 |
| knob | I know ftp is not good... yet it is either that or "no work". So,... we will make do for now. :) | 02:53 |
| Nivex | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1344762 | 02:54 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1344762 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "update-notifier tells me to upgrade from 12.04.4 LTS to 14.04 LTS (because of HWE), but that release is not found" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 02:54 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, i've type the comand line a whole list of things showed up and the i plugged my usb device and nothing happened... | 02:54 |
| Nivex | HWE stack falls out of support tomorrow and the "You should run do-release-upgrade" message has been there for two weeks. This is a bit disturbing. | 02:54 |
| Newbiee | yes i have 12.10 ubuntu. learned now its quantal codename | 02:55 |
| Beldar | Nivex, do-release-upgrade -p works | 02:55 |
| patchman | is there some setting for Unity Launcher to enable it for touch events? | 02:55 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: That means the port has gone AWOL I'm afraid... you should see something if its data connections were working | 02:55 |
| Nivex | Beldar: ok, so why isn't the official channel working yet? | 02:55 |
| Beldar | Nivex, No idea we have no connection to it. | 02:55 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: The only other possibility - remote - is the USB controller is shutting down that port for some reason | 02:55 |
| Beldar | ask them | 02:55 |
| TJ- | SpeendaSh: Press Ctrl+C to terminate the 'tail ...' operation | 02:55 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, ok done | 02:56 |
| Nivex | Beldar: ask who? I've asked in three different #ubuntu- channels and two different twitter accounts, not to mention the bug report I pasted. I can't get anyone to answer. | 02:56 |
| SpeendaSh | TJ-, oh flop.. my poor USB port... wjhat happened to him... | 02:56 |
| SchrodingersScat | nothing gold can stay | 02:56 |
| Beldar | Nivex, Gotta go to the developers all those sources you have tried are not connected except by the word ubuntu when it is used. | 02:57 |
| spigot | hmm. turns out "Samsung Tools has no control on screen brightness levels, nor on the behaviour of the Fn-Up and Fn-Down hotkeys used to control brightness." | 02:57 |
| spigot | "If brightness control does not work for you, then the problem may be in the kernel driver missing support for your notebook model, may be a bug in gnome-power-manager (if you use Gnome), may be a bug in powerdevil (if you use KDE), and so on." so I guess I should look elsewhere | 02:57 |
| Beldar | spigot, No really, this is linux not the original OS. :) | 02:58 |
| aliteralmind | I just completed these instructions (http://goo.gl/0Dw0ZQ), and I'm not clear on how to access the static directory that I just created in the final steps. It seems to have worked, but I don't get how to see it in a browser. What's the url? | 02:58 |
| Nivex | Beldar: I thought filing a bug report would connect me with "the developers". Can you recommend a specific mailing list or other such venue? | 02:59 |
| Beldar | Nivex, I think they know, your contribution would be what? | 02:59 |
| Nivex | Beldar: *I* want to know. I know deadlines are sometimes missed. I just want to know what the blockers are so I can plan my upgrades. | 03:00 |
| aliteralmind | Actually, it says that http://104.131.200.120/static should work, but it's giving me a 502 bad gateway. | 03:00 |
| Beldar | Nivex, If you want to help, help the at least 50 user who come here daily needing help. ;) | 03:00 |
| Beldar | on that exact issue | 03:01 |
| sgo11 | sometimes, there will be a popup window to remind me to backup the entire file system, something like that. what is that service? I would like to stop it. thanks. | 03:01 |
| Beldar | Nivex, If they knew the "blockers it would be fixed. Sometimes you just have to adapt. ;) | 03:01 |
| Nivex | That argument doesn't hold water. You can know what the issue is but still be working on a fix. It might still be in testing. I just want some communication. | 03:02 |
| Nivex | I can't adapt if I don't have information. | 03:03 |
| Beldar | Nivex, Sorry as a long time user and helper that rhetoric does work, it is critical thinking. Adaptation is why you are not a hunter gather. | 03:03 |
| Beldar | gatherer* | 03:04 |
| expunge | hunting and gathering is underrated | 03:04 |
| Nivex | Critical thinking requires information. All I know is "It's broken." | 03:05 |
| aliteralmind | There are no comments about this (beyond someone else saying they have this error...no solutions), and this page (http://www.nginxtips.com/502-bad-gateway-using-nginx/) is not helping...or I'm not getting it. | 03:05 |
| Nivex | This conversation is going in circles. | 03:06 |
| Beldar | Nivex, It requires a hypothesis generally depending on the end goal. It is as you cannot understand there is no available answer that suits your needs, live with it. ;) | 03:06 |
| Beldar | oh well not our job to raise the cognitive consciousness | 03:07 |
| Newbiee | i got that message: No candidate version found for update-manager | 03:08 |
| patchman | is there an applet to set brightness from the task panel? | 03:08 |
| Newbiee | do i have update manager already? | 03:09 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, Have you looked at the eol upgrade in the link I gave you? | 03:09 |
| Newbiee | yes | 03:09 |
| Newbiee | it says From version 6.06 and up you will need to install the update-manager and update-manager-core packages. | 03:09 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, You have to change the sources | 03:09 |
| Newbiee | not for cli servers. i dont know if mine is cli server though | 03:09 |
| Newbiee | i changed sourcelist | 03:10 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, That is a long upgrade through two other eol's you might just backup and fresh install 14.04. | 03:10 |
| Newbiee | http://paste.kde.org/pihi0fdzy/pjcu3a | 03:11 |
| Newbiee | its my source list | 03:11 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, I thought there was a jump upgrade but could not find one. | 03:11 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, read the requirments. | 03:12 |
| Newbiee | Beldar this is new vds already. do i need update or not? | 03:13 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, Backup the OS before you do any upgrades. | 03:13 |
| Newbiee | can i solve my problems without upgrade? | 03:13 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, being eol means no security updates and you are not attached to the repos, that was all the 404's | 03:14 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, Another here may help on staying where you are hnoever it is not safe basically | 03:15 |
| Beldar | *however* | 03:15 |
| Newbiee | Beldar i cannot use apt-get install tcl php perl? or other updates? | 03:15 |
| daftykins | Newbiee: it's game over, upgrade o'clock | 03:15 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, I would not know exactly, the only help staying where you are will be people feeling sorry for you and not thinking of the safety issues. | 03:16 |

| sgo11 | sometimes, there will be a popup window to remind me to backup the entire file system, something like that. what is that service? I would like to stop it. thanks. | 03:22 |
| Newbiee | ok i will not update then. | 03:22 |
| TJ- | Beldar: daftykins + those interested in the 12.04.5 HWE upgrade availability clarifications: please read these two: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2014-July/000186.html https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2014-August/002969.html | 03:23 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: what backup programs do you have installed? could be easier to examine while it's still open, say by checking running processes with htop, top, ps, etc. | 03:23 |
| laspahr | Hey, I've just finished teardown/reconstruction of my first tower, it was running WinXP 32-bit, AMD Athlon XP processor, 512 MB RAM and 160GB Hard Drive | 03:23 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, I don't have that open now. Just fresh installation of ubuntu. it should be a default service. | 03:24 |
| laspahr | what's the best Distro of Linux to put on there? I was leaning towards Ubuntu just vanilla but I wasn't sure if there was a better one? | 03:24 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, I saw that annoyed notification in many ubuntu releases. 12.04, 13.10, 14.04 etc... | 03:24 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: oh, between updating? | 03:24 |
| === z00t is now known as NaStYdoG | ||
| Beldar | !flavors | lasers lubuntu would be my choice | 03:25 |
| ubottu | lasers lubuntu would be my choice: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 03:25 |
| daftykins | laspahr: i wouldn't put any on there, it's too old and rubbish | 03:25 |
| SchrodingersScat | laspahr: with 512ram you're probably wanting to stick to lubuntu or xubuntu | 03:25 |
| Beldar | laspahr, sorry bots message for you. | 03:25 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, no. it just pops up randomly. maybe a few months after installation. | 03:25 |
| laspahr | so not vanilla Ubuntu? | 03:25 |
| daftykins | laspahr: it won't work | 03:25 |
| Beldar | lasers, sorry you can go back to sleep. | 03:25 |
| laspahr | okay, so lubuntu or xbuntu? | 03:26 |
| laspahr | xubuntu* | 03:26 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, did you never see such popup backup notification? that's weird. I keep seeing them in multiple ubuntu releases. | 03:26 |
| * lasers grumbles | 03:26 | |
| Beldar | I vote openbox with tint2 really laspahr | 03:26 |
| daftykins | TJ-: thanks, i came to that conclusion looking it up the other day. should be pretty handy that program to confirm people will move to 12.04.5 and run trusty's 3.13 kernel :) | 03:26 |
| laspahr | Beldar what's that? | 03:27 |
| Beldar | laspahr, A desktop even lighter than lubuntu/lxde | 03:27 |
| SchrodingersScat | laspahr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 03:27 |
| TJ- | daftykins: It's pretty daft there's no clear explanation for end-users though; and ending support on the day the release comes out too - there should be at least a month's grace! | 03:27 |
| yggdrasil | yo | 03:27 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: correct, the only annoying pop-up I get is to restart occasionally, and that's when I update kernel without restarting. | 03:28 |
| expunge | laspahr: does it have a dedicated graphics card? | 03:28 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, I never have that pop-up in my ubuntu life. \ | 03:28 |
| Beldar | laspahr, lubuntu is rather config orientated not so many gui's same with openbox. | 03:28 |
| daftykins | TJ-: agreed, the older HWE's giving EOL warnings seem to be confusing many | 03:28 |
| yggdrasil | had a macbook pro that just wouldnt install ubuntu. so i mounted the disk via firewire and performed a peninstall of the installation cd onto the hard drive . so now i hvae it booting up but .. can i convert the peninstall to a full blow ubuntu install ? when it starts up it asks to install or to run. | 03:28 |
| laspahr | Beldar: so it would be optimal for this tower? SchrodingersScat: so it would work, just not well? expunge: ummm.. I don't think so, I didn't see one | 03:29 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: what's a pen install? | 03:29 |
| yggdrasil | its like a dd of the cd | 03:29 |
| Beldar | laspahr, optimal is a subjective opinion, develop one. ;) | 03:29 |
| laspahr | Beldar: so pretty much instead of a vanilla Ubuntu install with GUI, it's going to be more command line? | 03:29 |
| daftykins | yggdrasil: no | 03:30 |
| expunge | laspahr: nah, it needn't be | 03:30 |
| expunge | laspahr: does it have a dedicated graphics card? | 03:30 |
| quantibility | ok | 03:30 |
| quantibility | who remembers me from yesterday | 03:30 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: you can install _from_ a dd of the cd _to_ the firewire drive and migrate -that- | 03:30 |
| Beldar | laspahr, No all mentioned are desktops, it is the configs that increase as you go lighter, rather than a gui to click the changes you might want. | 03:30 |

| expunge | quantibility: nick only | 03:31 |
| yggdrasil | expunge i think im on the phase 2 of that. how do i migrate it ? | 03:31 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: you ran the ubuntu installer and it finished? | 03:31 |
| yggdrasil | im doing an apt-get update | 03:31 |
| yggdrasil | no | 03:31 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: you need an installed system first | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | i wanst sure if the installer could instal onto the drive it booted on. | 03:32 |
| laspahr | Beldar: so less personalization..? sorry I guess I'm not catching on | 03:32 |
| Beldar | laspahr, That computer might make a nice local media server or something, an OS is possible, but I would not do it unless forced. | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | let me run it and see what happens | 03:32 |
| laspahr | configurations, that's the word I was looking for | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: oh okay | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: you have an internal drive | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: and on that is the install media | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | yea | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | yep | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: yeah you can install from that | 03:32 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, I think that is deja-dup. trying to figure out how to disable that pop-up now. | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | ok ill try it | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: as long as it can see some partition space | 03:32 |
| laspahr | Beldar: if I were to make it a "server", what would that do for me? | 03:32 |
| yggdrasil | yep i should have quite a bit. | 03:32 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: it wouldn't boot from usb? | 03:33 |
| SchrodingersScat | laspahr: should try a couple, depending on how daring you get you can get complicated | 03:33 |
| yggdrasil | expunge: nothing. tried a million different iterations | 03:33 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: sounds likely | 03:33 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: how'd you dd it to the internal? | 03:33 |
| laspahr | It's quite loud when it's running... so Idk if I can handle it running 24/7 | 03:33 |
| Beldar | laspahr, to many questions for me this is info you can research. | 03:33 |
| yggdrasil | ibooted the macbook in target mode | 03:33 |
| yggdrasil | then mounted it via firewire | 03:33 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: target mode? | 03:33 |
| laspahr | okay so pretty much, it's junk? | 03:33 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: what OS did you use to dd? | 03:33 |
| yggdrasil | so the internal drive looked like an xternal drive to the workstation. | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | ubuntu | 03:34 |
| expunge | laspahr: it is if you can afford $25 to replace it | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | i actually used the ubutntu start up disk. | 03:34 |
| expunge | laspahr: it's a working computer to _someone_ | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | creator | 03:34 |
| SchrodingersScat | laspahr: if you install the server image you'll get a text boot, last I checked, it takes ~52MB ram | 03:34 |
| daftykins | laspahr: i'd bury it. | 03:34 |
| Beldar | gold for some junk for others and everything between | 03:34 |
| quantibility | expung: im looking for that room i was directed too for talking bs and ubuntu? | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | ok wel im gont to try it. ill let you know | 03:34 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: okay, you probably could've just installed from that point... | 03:34 |
| expunge | anyways, yeah, g'luck | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | nah | 03:34 |
| laspahr | well it's not like I'm losing money, the guy gave it to me and said "if you don't want it it's going in the trash" | 03:34 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, I found this X-GNOME-Autostart-Delay=120 in deja-dup-monitor.desktop. what is unit of 120? 120 days? | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | i would have had to install it from the workstaion and i was afraid it would have been differnt target. | 03:34 |
| expunge | quantibility: -chat maybe? | 03:34 |
| yggdrasil | uh architecture | 03:34 |
| quantibility | yea | 03:34 |
| expunge | quantibility: /msg alis list *ubunt*chat* or *off* | 03:34 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: no matter | 03:35 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: remembered moments | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | ok cool. | 03:35 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: should install from where it is, if there's partition space | 03:35 |
| daftykins | yggdrasil: i think expunge is right that it may've installed ok in target mode | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | hmm.. | 03:35 |
| expunge | yggdrasil: you can resize afterwards, or just leave the image there for emergencies | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | right | 03:35 |
| daftykins | yggdrasil: did you ever try zapping the PRAM as well prior to your boot attempts? | 03:35 |
| expunge | poor prams | 03:35 |
| laspahr | Yeah, Imma move on to the next computer heh | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | ok well let me see what happens. this will be like an awesome recovery partition if i think its goint to do what its goinna do | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | daftykins: yes i did that | 03:35 |
| ^Mike | help! Scrolling seems to go in opposite directions in different programs. I've tried "natural scrolling" both off and on and it doesn't seem to do anything | 03:35 |
| yggdrasil | thought that was going to get it for sure. | 03:36 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, number of seconds. weird. | 03:36 |
| yggdrasil | ill keep you posted | 03:36 |
| Beldar | laspahr, Heh donate it to a suitable place. | 03:36 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: could be so everything is mounted? your guess is as good as mine | 03:36 |
| laspahr | Such as? :) I'm thinking for parts/not working sell on ebay :) | 03:37 |
| laspahr | cuz the parts are fine, just not worth it for me to keep | 03:37 |
| sgo11 | SchrodingersScat, anyway, I think i just apt-get purge deja-dup. I don't need any backups. | 03:37 |
| daftykins | laspahr: nobody sane would spend money on that old junk, now - all this is is off topic for this channel | 03:37 |
| Basketball | what is a good app to make a collage in | 03:37 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: well, you do, but, ok | 03:37 |
| laspahr | daftykins: suggestion for a better channel? | 03:38 |
| SchrodingersScat | sgo11: there are many fine options for you to consider in the meantime | 03:38 |
| yggdrasil | oh yea im going to have to resize this partition.. | 03:39 |
| yggdrasil | bummer | 03:39 |
| yggdrasil | bbl. | 03:39 |
| daftykins | laspahr: ##hardware - but they will laugh at you much as we did :) | 03:39 |
| yggdrasil | thanks for the insight gentlement. | 03:39 |
| SchrodingersScat | I wasn't laughing, I have worse machines I'll keep for longer. | 03:40 |
| Newbiee | how can i install tcl on ubuntu? apt-get install tcl not works | 04:13 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: 12.10 still ?? // release 14.04 -> Filename: pool/main/t/tcltk-defaults/tcl_8.6.0+6ubuntu3_amd64.deb . | 04:15 |
| Newbiee | Bashing-om yes i will not update it. i see its long story and im new user. first time using.. first i should learn somethings maybe | 04:18 |
| Newbiee | i will apt-get install pool/main/t/tcltk-defaults/tcl_8.6.0+6ubuntu3_amd64.deb ? | 04:18 |
| Beldar | Newbiee, Learn it on a supported release this an eol is not a ideal learning platform. | 04:19 |
| Newbiee | but my provider not has latest version of ubuntu | 04:19 |
| Newbiee | i had to choose this on my vds | 04:20 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: As 12.10 is End_Of_life it has no support, the softeare repository has been turned away and no longer exists as you may have known it . Install a current release and be supported . | 04:24 |
| Newbiee | Bashing-om i cannot install tcl on my ubuntu version?? omg | 04:25 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: Your release has no support // either upgrade or fresh install to a current release. | 04:26 |
| Newbiee | no support meaning i can not install anything on it? | 04:26 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: Food for thought // Release 14.04 has full support untill April of 2019 !! | 04:27 |
| Bashing-om | Newbiee: You - as just getting started, no - you will not be able to install anything on release 12.10 // fact . | 04:27 |

| cfhowlett | brucelee, as i stated earlier: ALTERNATE iso - no longer mader. | 06:07 |
| cfhowlett | no longer made. | 06:07 |
| brucelee | i dint really know what you meant by that | 06:07 |
| cfhowlett | brucelee, the method stated in that longer no longer works.. | 06:08 |
| brucelee | what is this concept of "alternate iso" | 06:08 |
| redhat_ | OerHeks: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3 | 06:08 |
| TJ- | brucelee: The alternate installer went away unfortunately, the -server variety replaced it for text-based installs, but that doesn't contain the -desktop packages. -desktop's archive only contains a few relatively essential additional packages that may be needed during install. | 06:08 |
| redhat_ | sudo apt-get update | 06:08 |
| redhat_ | sudo apt-get install sublime-text-installer | 06:08 |
| brucelee | what do you mean by the alternate iso is no longer made, that means an alternate iso used to be made? what is this alternate iso? what is the purpose for the existance of an "alternate" iso... why is it named something so meaningless? :P | 06:09 |
| cfhowlett | brucelee, beginning to suspect you're playing games. Alternate ISO is GONE. zip, zilch, nada. | 06:09 |
| cfhowlett | brucelee, so discussion of alternate is a huge waste of space and time. | 06:10 |
| brucelee | ok... i guess im just trying to understand context. is an alternate iso simply a backup copy of an iso that someone downloads as an alternative to having a normal iso? | 06:10 |
| brucelee | i mean | 06:10 |
| cfhowlett | brucelee, if you want a gui, I'd suggest you get a .torrent of whichever ubuntu flavor you prefer. Once you have the ISO, install it. then add the server packages you want | 06:10 |
| OerHeks | redhat_, installs fine here, on trusty 14.04.1 | 06:11 |
| brucelee | yeah it seems now i have to download it from the internet... im fine with that | 06:11 |
| brucelee | ill just do it tomorrow or something when i dont have to use tether | 06:11 |
| ZZRMike | If I have two folders on the receiving end of rsync, is there a way I can copy from a single source and ignore the files from dir1 when copying to dir2? Or do I just need to split the files up on the source end and then copy them? | 06:11 |
| brucelee | what im asking now is unrelated to getting ubuntu-desktop... just simply about alternate iso | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | brucelee, as it's obsolete, it's completely off-topic to support. ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:12 |
| redhat_ | OerHeks: How to get rid off ..... | 06:12 |

| OerHeks | brucelee, alternate was an text based installer with more tools, EOL | 06:15 |

| redhat_ | <OerHeks> okay | 06:15 |

| TJ- | OerHeks: Alternate isn't EOL, it's still part of the 12.04 LTS support | 06:16 |
| brucelee | ah ok | 06:16 |
| OerHeks | TJ-, true, but he is working with 14.04 isn't he? | 06:16 |

| Beldar | or both | 07:06 |

| sancas | marsokod, which is the content of the .desktop u put in autostart? | 07:09 |
| Beldar | startup is empty to begin with, you have to run a command to fill it. | 07:12 |
| Beldar | the stuff is already auto starting | 07:12 |
| marsokod | I copied another one that was generated by the gui. I don't have access to it now but it had Type=Application, a name and an Exec field with /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-application/indicator-application-service | 07:12 |
| sancas | marsokod, exec just leave indicator-application-service i think xD | 07:13 |
| sancas | but it had to work idm | 07:13 |
| marsokod | what's strange is that by default this indication service is not started with a .desktop file | 07:13 |
| marsokod | on a fresh ubuntu installation, you don't have any .desktop file in autostart (you don't even have the autostart folder) | 07:14 |

| ObrienDave | Gaurav_, that is how most Linux packages work. they DEPEND on other packages so a programmer does not have to re-invent things | 07:45 |

| ubottu | d4rks1d3r: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 08:21 |
| Guest20797 | What is there exchangel | 08:21 |
| cfhowlett | Guest20797, what language do you speak? | 08:22 |
| d4rks1d3r | i have a backup of the root drive on gentoo. is there a way to compile it using the same options? | 08:22 |
| Guest20797 | everybody is good, there is no chinese | 08:22 |
| cfhowlett | d4rks1d3r, read the kernel link above? | 08:22 |

| hyde | d4rks1d3r: there's a standard, easy way to transfer configurations between kernels, when compiling sources. I don't remember the exact details, but just saying this in case you were not sure. | 08:23 |
| geirha | d4rks1d3r: extract the .config file | 08:24 |
| hyde | d4rks1d3r: or to grab the configuration from a running kernel, and apply it to a source compilation | 08:24 |
| MortezaE | hyde, cfhowlett during installing 14.04 as a new fresh os, i incorrectly selected my 10.10 partition for grub installation(that itself had grub). now, i see it's grub.cfg intact (i see the same boot menu) | 08:24 |
| cfhowlett | MortezaE, reinstall grub will fix that | 08:24 |
| cfhowlett | *reinstall* | 08:24 |
| cfhowlett | !grub | 08:24 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 08:25 |
| linuxgeek_ | i have a 14.04 kvm host. eth2 is a member of a bridge breth2. in the interfaces file breth2 is set to dhcp. | 08:25 |
| MortezaE | cfhowlett, you mean grub-install? will it automatically find all OSs? | 08:26 |
| linuxgeek_ | when i do a ifup breth2, the message is repeated "dhcpdiscover on breth2 to 255.255.255.255 port 67" and the bridge is not getting an ip | 08:26 |
| cfhowlett | MortezaE, read the link. os probe goes looking for installed OS so ... yes. | 08:27 |
| MortezaE | OK, Thanks... | 08:27 |

| ubottu | kevin_linux: Ubuntu Kylin is a variant of Ubuntu that focuses on Chinese users. It is a formal part of Ubuntu. For more information, see http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/ubuntukylin | 08:28 |
| hyde | linuxgeek_: where's the DHCP server running? is it running? is it ok? | 08:28 |
| kevin_linux | thank you | 08:29 |
| linuxgeek_ | hyde, the dhcp is running ok because the eth2 interface when not bridged get the dhcp ip | 08:29 |
| anigma | ##programing | 08:30 |
| hyde | linuxgeek_: ok, then, apart from verifying the configuration is really in use (like by rebooting), no idea what could cause that | 08:30 |
| hyde | mm, eth2 is up, right? | 08:31 |
| linuxgeek_ | ah, reboot is not an option. this needs to be sorted without a reboot :-/ | 08:31 |
| linuxgeek_ | yes eth2 is up | 08:31 |
| MortezaE | cfhowlett, update-grub helped me in some second... i think i'm kinda ultra geek hehe! | 08:32 |
| cfhowlett | MortezaE, happy2help | 08:32 |
| kevin_linux | I would like to ask you how IRC into the ubuntu chinese?? | 08:33 |
| hyde | linuxgeek_: another thing to watch might be the packet counters of eth2 and breth2 (ifconfig), and see how they grow with DHCP packets. might give a hint at just where the problem is | 08:33 |

| sgo11 | I am trying to install ubuntu to an usb flash-drive. During installation, I create /dev/sdb1 with ext4 partition and mount it as root /. install grub to /dev/sdb1. anything wrong with this? When I try to boot from this usb, I can see the grub screen is fine, but after I press Enter, it's just a black screen. | 08:59 |
| hyde | bobptz: that paste does not seem to have that error (and the few errors in it don't seem related or interesting, though I'm not sure what they are) | 09:00 |
| hyde | ...also, how do you get the dmesg, if it refuses to boot? | 09:00 |
| bobptz | hyde, you mean the dmesg? I got it from CLI. From recovery mode | 09:01 |
| bobptz | hyde, indeed, the dmesg does not have the error. I don;t know. When I try to boot normally, I see it | 09:01 |
| bobptz | hyde, the dmesg is to check the drivers. I do not hve the knowledge, but can you see what video drivers it has? | 09:02 |
| hyde | bobptz: no, sorry. though if you're at text mode recovery console, I don't think any X video drivers have been loaded yet | 09:03 |
| hyde | bobptz: if it does not hang completely, then try alt-F1 (or ctrl-alt-F1 from GUI) to get to text mode console after normal boot. | 09:04 |
| hyde | bobptz: then look in /var/log directory | 09:04 |
| hyde | bobptz: in particular. Xorg.0.log might be useful it if is GUI problem only | 09:05 |
| sgo11 | I think I need to install grub to /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sdb1. that might be the problem. let me try it again. | 09:05 |

| jakob2 | Buying a new computer, is nvidia or ATI prefered theese days? What works best? | 10:00 |
| hyde | jakob2: I don't know the answer either way, but it probably depends on if you are ok with proprietary drivers, or if you want open source ones. | 10:02 |
| jakob2 | hyde: I'm guessing the free drivers are missing features? Free drivers are prefered of course, but not if they perform worse than proprietary | 10:04 |
| hyde | Theory: (noir seems to be gone), to get the source of the package, `apt-get source package` is better than searching the web. that will give you the sources of the binary you are actually using. | 10:04 |
| Walex | jakob2: I get pretty good overall performance in TF2 with the free drivers on an ATi 7850. But the kernel must be at least 3.13 or newer | 10:04 |
| jakob2 | Walex: I'm on 3.15 so that's fine :) | 10:05 |
| jakob2 | Walex: does ATI still have that icky catalyst control program? | 10:05 |
| hyde | jakob2: one thing to consider is, do you want the latest and greatest (which might require proprietary drivers to advantage off), or are you ok with an older card (which might have good support in OSS drivers too) | 10:06 |
| Walex | jakob2: yes but the GNU/Linux package does not use it. | 10:06 |
| jakob2 | hyde: I'm fine with an older card, I'm just planning to play some minecraft every now and then if I'm in the mood | 10:07 |

| jakob2 | hyde: is there a specific old and stable card that i should go for? | 10:08 |
| hyde | jakob2: then I'd probably go with whatever has better OSS support, since those will keep getting better, while with proprietary drivers you might be in trouble (ie. need to tweak stuff) after next big distro update. | 10:08 |
| jakob2 | right | 10:08 |
| hyde | and my possibly outdated/wrong understanding is, ATI has better OSS drivers. | 10:08 |
| jakob2 | which is ATI? | 10:08 |

| jakob2 | l337: sudo apt-get install openssl | 10:10 |
| hyde | l337: generally, don't ask to ask, just ask about your actual problem. "install SSL" does not really mean anything. SSL is a protocol, an abstract thing (or a specification document). | 10:11 |
| hyde | if you don't know the right terminology, then you can ask how to do whatever it is you want to do (with SSL in this case, I presume) | 10:12 |
| l337 | jakob2, hyde, thanks for the replies. well, I have the certificates from an SSL authority and I wonder about how do I install them | 10:12 |
| jakob2 | l337: for what? A web server? | 10:12 |

| OerHeks | rajmahendra, you need to upgrade, 4.2 is banned from their servers. | 11:54 |
| rajmahendra | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will upgrade ubuntu to 14 right ? | 11:55 |

| rajmahendra | cfhowlett, is there any client support connecting to skype ? :) | 12:08 |
| marianne_ | aeyesi: then I guess my next question is... I'm on 12.04, do I have to go to 13.10 and then just upgrade, or can I install over the top? | 12:09 |
| cfhowlett | rajmahendra you'd have to ask skype. I'd say running an unsecured, unsupported OS ... skype is the least of your issues. | 12:09 |

| marianne_ | cfhowlett: hummm....it has been verified that you can actually upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04? yes I'm paranoid | 12:20 |
| llutz | l337: use "dos2unix /etc/zpanel/configs/apache/httpd-vhosts.con" | 12:21 |
| cfhowlett | marianne_, verified. yes. LTS has always had that capability. although IMHO you're better off torrenting the ISO and doing a clean install. (Free advice and worth every penny you paid.) | 12:21 |

| cfhowlett | marianne_, also, you might find it helpful to make a dedicated /home when you install, DO NOT FORMAT /home | 12:25 |
| cfhowlett | marianne_, actually make home BEFORE you install. move the current home to dedicated /home | 12:25 |
| marianne_ | cfhowlett: good idea, probably move most stuff to the Mac first, just in case | 12:26 |
| cfhowlett | marianne_, either way, backup ^2 | 12:26 |

| emx | how do i make a clean ubuntu install? what i have: running 12.04 (which i don't want to upgrade) and another distro on a different partition. | 12:36 |
| cfhowlett | marianne_, the usb will offer "try ubuntu" or "install ubuntu" | 12:36 |
| cfhowlett | emx, partition some space, install ubuntu to that partition. | 12:36 |
| emx | cfhowlett, no space left for that | 12:36 |
| marianne_ | cfhowlett: probably go the terminal route then and have the iso on had in case I hose it all | 12:37 |
| cfhowlett | emx, ??? then you need to overwrite one of your existing OS? | 12:37 |
| cfhowlett | marianne_, that'll work | 12:37 |
| eeee | emx: you want to replace 12.04 with 14.04.1 ? | 12:37 |
| marianne_ | eeee: yuppers | 12:38 |
| emx | cfhowlett, yes, which would be 12.04. what i don't know: can i overwrite the current installation. | 12:38 |
| emx | eeee, yes | 12:38 |
| emx | without upgrade | 12:38 |
| emx | clean install | 12:38 |
| emx | i guess bootable usb drive is the option? | 12:38 |
| cfhowlett | emx, yes. select the 12.04 part as your 14.04 installation target. format it that partition. do NOT format your /home partition | 12:38 |

| glcheetham | guy on the ubuntu forums told me that my apt-get update is trying to connect to the wrong ip address to get to the mirror. I think it's got something to do with the fact that I tried setting a proxy. How do I fix this? | 13:00 |
| cfhowlett | glcheetham, find your proxy tutorial and reverse it | 13:01 |
| cfhowlett | !proxy | 13:01 |
| ubottu | Several Ubuntu channels prohibit access from open proxies and other anonymous connections due to a high level of abuse. The supported ways to hide your IP address on freenode are to use !Tor or get a !cloak | 13:01 |

| eeee_ | it's the same question, do as cfhowlett suggested | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | Alexanderrockz_, there it is. 12.10 is no longer supported so ... no updates | 13:07 |
| mjayk | glcheetham: if you go to archive.ubuntu.com in your browser does that work ? | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | Alexanderrockz_, 12.04 is supported fro about 2 more years. 14.04 for 5 years. install one or the other | 13:07 |
| Alexanderrockz_ | aww | 13:07 |
| Alexanderrockz_ | ok | 13:08 |
| eeee_ | Alexanderrockz_: do you intend to upgrade? | 13:08 |

| glcheetham | yeah noir_, chromium isn't really meant to be stable and bug-free anyway | 13:26 |

| andlabs | actually | 13:27 |
| andlabs | asking again, because this time I have the version numbers right :S | 13:27 |
| andlabs | Hi. I need xutils-dev 1.18 to build some software with jhbuild, but Trusty only comes with 1.17. Is there some PPA I can use to upgrade? So far searching has led nowhere. Thanks. | 13:27 |
| SP33D | this are only libs @ andlabs | 13:28 |
| compdoc | andlabs, there might be, but sometimes you need to compile your own | 13:28 |
| SP33D | simply download new version and put it where the old was | 13:28 |
| SP33D | no changes needed | 13:28 |
| noir_ | By the way firefox font rendering sucks too with certains websites, like facebook and github, so maybe he's trying to use some font that has bad rendering, but i don't know how to check it and solve | 13:30 |
| SP33D | in ubuntu trusty how do you restart the starter bar | 13:31 |
| SP33D | in unity | 13:31 |
| andlabs | SP33D: that sounds bad, though it's just complaining about some m4 macros | 13:31 |
| andlabs | compdoc: hm... | 13:31 |
| andlabs | nope, even the m4 macros have to be autotol'd | 13:35 |
| andlabs | blah | 13:35 |
| andlabs | oh wait the packag ejust includes the macros | 13:37 |
| andlabs | hm | 13:37 |
| sakamop | Could also be new to linux desktop and not used to the font rendering. it's different on windows or mac. | 13:37 |
| sakamop | Different between distros too. Isn't the ubuntu font renderer not free? | 13:37 |

| kotsar | Hi guys! I'm facing very interesting issue in ubuntu 14.04 (unity). I have laptop with where headphones out and microphone in are merged in one. When I switch on my laptop my laptop speakers are working great, but headphones are not working. In unity sound settings it's indicated Speakers and S/PDIF. But after I reboot my laptop, the SPDIF device disappears, only speakers are left, and I can connect my headphones and they are working properl | 14:17 |

| sgo11 | This is very weird. If I setup the font to be Dejavu Mono in lxterminal, it works very well. If I setup the font to be Monospace, it doesn't work. BUT I configured /etc/fonts/local.conf, it uses Dejavu Mono in Monospace family. This config file always works in other PCs. what's wrong here? | 14:25 |
| s12 | What are you trying to achieve? | 14:26 |
| sgo11 | does it mean my local.conf is not working? why is not working? I am using the same file in another PC which works fine. they have the same md5sum. | 14:27 |
| sgo11 | s12, Use DejaVu Sans Mono as Monospace font. I did configure this in local.conf. | 14:27 |

| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 14:30 |

| kostkon | TeraJL, have i seen you here before? :P | 14:47 |
| TeraJL | x9: i think it's a unity problem :/ | 14:48 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, ok guys, do you want to see any of the logs before I reboot? | 14:48 |
| TeraJL | kostkon: probably | 14:48 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, or you want me to run the dist-upgrade? | 14:48 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, YES run dist-upgrade to make sure you've go the latest ... might fix your issue | 14:48 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, ok, I will try this. let me go then | 14:49 |
| kotsar | Hi guys! I'm facing very interesting issue in ubuntu 14.04 (unity). I have laptop with where headphones out and microphone in are merged in one. When I switch on my laptop my laptop speakers are working great, but headphones are not working. In unity sound settings it's indicated Speakers and S/PDIF. But after I reboot my laptop, the SPDIF device disappears, only speakers are left, and I can connect my headphones and they are working properl | 14:49 |
| kotsar | y. So every time I need to use my headphones, I need to switch on my laptop and then reboot it. Anybody can help? | 14:49 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, I can connect to internet through wire, but the CLI mode will establish a connection with the net? | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, if you're connected at all, using CLI will not change that. | 14:51 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, well, when I booted with liveCD, it could not connect to the net | 14:51 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, that's different ... live cd hasn't been optimized and configured after installation to your system | 14:52 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, so if I go to recovery mode and the to CLI, I will have connection? | 14:52 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, don't recover. boot as regular. start a terminal and upgrade | 14:53 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, my system showes the error and the hangs. It does not go to GUI | 14:56 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, OK, now try recovery | 14:56 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, I can only go to recovery mode. So should I procceed? | 14:56 |
| cfhowlett | bobptz, sorry, but I gotta work tomorrow. gtg | 14:56 |
| bobptz | cfhowlett, ok, I will try anyway | 14:57 |

| mjrbordo | anybody have any idea why grub dont recognize ubuntu after instalation ? | 15:10 |
| mjrbordo | im talking about 14.04 | 15:10 |
| x9 | mjrbordo: upgrade, fresh install from disk, or wubi? | 15:11 |
| mjrbordo | from usb | 15:11 |
| mjrbordo | first 2 times i tryed on empty ssd disk | 15:12 |
| jhutchins | mjrbordo: What did you try to do? How did you try to do it? What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? | 15:12 |
| mjrbordo | now i trying to install with windows 8.1 but its same | 15:12 |
| mjrbordo | i just install with swap partition | 15:12 |
| x9 | computer came with/had installed Windows 8.1 or are you installing that alongside Ubuntu? | 15:12 |
| mjrbordo | after instalation i saw the window with " To use ubuntu need to reboot computer now or still try ubuntu" - smth like this and after rebooting there is no option in grub to chose ubuntu. Only options "Try ubuntu, install ubuntu... ect. | 15:14 |
| x9 | remove the USB stick and reboot again | 15:14 |
| TJ- | mjrbordo: You've left the boot media in, and it is starting instead of the hard disk because it is ahead of the hard disk in the firmware's boot menu order | 15:14 |
| x9 | mjrbordo: remove your install stick and reboot the computer. should work properly then. | 15:15 |
| mjrbordo | i tried without sb stick and was same | 15:15 |

I need to find a package that contains an uncompressed vmlinux and I think it would be linux-image-3.2.0-67-generic-dbgsym but no -dbgsym package seems to be available for my kernel version.

| yogeshp | I am trying to install 14.04 on g505s and unable to boot the system. Live CD is boots up well. Nothing happens after loading Initrd (in failsafe). There is a win7 already installed and it uses BIOS. How would I debug the issue further? | 15:21 |
| phunyguy | yogeshp: have you checked that the livecd is error-free? | 15:22 |
| yogeshp | PhoenixSTF: Livecd was working well | 15:22 |
| phunyguy | that's not what I asked | 15:23 |

| c2h6o | libwebkitgtk dependency is not met, even though it says I have the latest version | 15:32 |
| s12 | is it dependant on a specific package? | 15:32 |

| s12 | trijntje your unlocking two encryptions, would be pointless without a password for each | 15:48 |
| trijntje | s12, what do you mean pointless, since the passwords are the same I only want to give it once | 15:49 |
| Dr_Dan | Q: i have a older ASUS netbook. Its has just Intel Atom N550 at 1.6ghz. Its only 2 cores. Would U14 run on this? Or should use Lubuntu/Xubuntu | 15:49 |
| eeee | trijntje: if somebody guessed it then it's probably over, it defeats the point | 15:50 |
| s12 | trijntje, from what i understand your unencrypting your root folder first then your home folder second if theres no password theres no need to encrypt it | 15:50 |
| Dr_Dan | Oh. Its got 2GB ram | 15:50 |
| trijntje | s12, who is talking about no password? I want it to use the same password to decrypt both home and root | 15:51 |
| s12 | @Dr_Dan https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 15:51 |
| trijntje | eeee, guessed what, guessing has nothing to do with my question | 15:51 |
| eeee | sorry, no idea i thought you were encrypting twice | 15:52 |
| sgo11 | hi, I installed ibus input method. now, at every login, the default input method is set to ibus. how can I change the default input method to be English? thanks. | 15:52 |
| trijntje | eeee, no, i have a / partition and a /home partition, both encrypted | 15:52 |
| Dr_Dan | S12, thank you. Do you have a personal opinion? It may install, but would it be slow? | 15:52 |
| s12 | @Dr_Dan Personally i'd try the LiveBoot from a USB or look at other lightweight flavours of linux | 15:53 |
| s12 | @trijntje you have two encryptions therefore you need two passwords | 15:54 |
| TJ- | trijntje: The solution is to add a key-file to the /home/ encrypted-volume, store it in the root-filesystem encrypted volume, and add an entry in "/etc/crypttab" so that cryptsetup can unlock the /home/ encrypted volume automatically | 15:54 |

| trijntje | TJ-, cool, thanks a lot, I'll give that a try | 15:56 |
| TJ- | trijntje: alternatively, store the key-file on an external USB device and have that plugged in at boot-time, and set "/etc/crypttab" to use a key-file and custom script that knows how to mount and read the USB device | 15:56 |
| trijntje | TJ-, I'll probably stick with the first options, since I've lost quite a lot of usb drives over the years ;) | 15:56 |

So I thought I could use this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/ubuntu/cinnamon-nightly .

| NTQ | Hi there. I am using Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 x64 with nemo as the default file manager. But the current version is only 2.2.3. So I thought I could use this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/ubuntu/cinnamon-nightly . But if I try to dist-upgrade, it wants to install much more than only the new version of nemo. Could this be dangerous for my gnome? | 16:27 |

| d4rks1d3r | hi guys, can you point me to a good tutorial on how to build a new kernel on Ubuntu 14.04? | 16:27 |
| OerHeks | NTQ, that ppa will update your whole cinamon, can't tell if that hurts, as it is not our repo | 16:28 |
| mjrbordo1 | Hi there. When ubuntu is starting i get this error "Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found! Try passing init= option to kernel. See..... | 16:29 |
| NTQ | OerHeks: I have not installed cinnamon. So maybe I got a fresh installation of cinnamon? That should not be a problem. I have not to use it. ;) | 16:29 |
| mjrbordo1 | 1 line before is " Starting init:/bin/sh exitst but couldn't execute it (error -8) | 16:30 |
| OerHeks | NTQ, i think so, that ppa installs the whole desktop. | 16:31 |
| mjrbordo1 | anybody know somthing about init probs | 16:32 |
| mjrbordo1 | or about kernel panic ? | 16:32 |
| phunyguy | mjrbordo1: did you mess with anything or did it just stop working? | 16:32 |

| mjrbordo1 | i installed on clear SSD | 16:34 |
| mih1406 | Oops, my mistake :) | 16:34 |
| phunyguy | mjrbordo1: did you check your install media for errors? | 16:35 |
| mjrbordo1 | then it happend after rebooting | 16:35 |
| phunyguy | !md5 | 16:35 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 16:35 |
| mjrbordo1 | how i can do it ? | 16:35 |
| phunyguy | I just showed you | 16:35 |
| mjrbordo1 | from live ubuntu ? | 16:35 |
| phunyguy | mjrbordo1: it is good practice to check BEFORE you wipe your OS and try to install :) | 16:36 |
| phunyguy | but you may be able to get to a boot menu on the livecd and I recall there being an option there to check the install media for defects | 16:36 |
| mjrbordo1 | but i need to use "!md5" where? im in live usb ? | 16:37 |
| phunyguy | try what I just said. | 16:37 |
| mjrbordo1 | in terminal ? | 16:37 |
| OerHeks | mjrbordo1, open terminal ( ctrl alt T ) | 16:37 |
| mjrbordo1 | oo | 16:37 |
| phunyguy | boot to the livecd, and press a key before it starts to load to get to the ubuntu livecd boot menu | 16:37 |
| phunyguy | also, how are you chatting | 16:37 |
| phunyguy | from livecd? | 16:37 |
| mjrbordo1 | not | 16:37 |
| mjrbordo1 | from win 81 | 16:38 |
| mjrbordo1 | win8.1 | 16:38 |
| phunyguy | well you should be able to to it from windows too | 16:38 |
| phunyguy | (see second link on !md5) | 16:38 |
| lordd | hi guys, I've been looking back and forth but no luck today.. | 16:38 |
| mjrbordo1 | so i need to plug in USB stick and use !md5 command from windows console? | 16:38 |
| phunyguy | how did you write USB stick? | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | with the program | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | i forgot who was | 16:39 |
| phunyguy | ....unetbootin? | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | yes | 16:39 |
| s12 | liveusbcreator? | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | thats right | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | second one | 16:39 |
| mjrbordo1 | im mean ubetbot... | 16:40 |
| phunyguy | I woudl recommend you download the ISO, and write that to USB.... | 16:40 |
| phunyguy | download iso, check for defects, then write to USB | 16:40 |

| phunyguy | mjrbordo1: you have a CD burned? | 16:41 |
| mjrbordo1 | yes | 16:41 |
| mjrbordo1 | but iso | 16:41 |
| phunyguy | mjrbordo1: do you still have the ISO? | 16:41 |
| mjrbordo1 | yes | 16:41 |
| phunyguy | ....so click that link, and check the ISO for defects. | 16:41 |
| mjrbordo1 | which one link ? | 16:42 |
| phunyguy | !md5 | 16:42 |
| phunyguy | grumble | 16:42 |

| sauraedron | hi, how do i make unity not respond to some of my keys .. my other application use keys (ctl+shift+u key) | 16:43 |
| phunyguy | sauraedron: open the Unity Dash and type "keyboard" | 16:43 |
| phunyguy | see options in there | 16:44 |
| sauraedron | then->shortcuts? | 16:44 |
| phunyguy | yessir. | 16:44 |
| sauraedron | @phunyguy - then what ? | 16:45 |
| anon_031 | How can i stop my AMD graphics card from running constantly at 70C after installing 14.04? I've tried both opensource and proprietary drivers but doesn't seem to make any difference :( | 16:45 |
| phunyguy | sauraedron: I think you can handle it from here. | 16:45 |
| mitch-_ | i have ubuntu 14.04 for my laptop. I'm currently traveling to a different timezone. can i have my clock change automatically to the correct time based on the location i'm currently in? (I'm in EST instead of CST) | 16:45 |
| phunyguy | anon_031: unfortunately I don't think you are going to get an aswer for that from Ubuntu... I would say get a hold of the vendor of your card for some support,. | 16:46 |
| anon_031 | phunyguy: damn, that's a shame - i've installed arch/debian and ubuntu on this machine before and didn't have this problem | 16:46 |
| phunyguy | I understand.... but that's ATI/NVIDIA for you. | 16:47 |
| anon_031 | yeah :( isn't there some way in 3.11+ to use advanced power management tools for gpus? | 16:47 |
| phunyguy | the vendor probably knows :) | 16:47 |
| phunyguy | aside from that, I have no idea | 16:47 |
| sauraedron | any1? | 16:52 |
| phunyguy | sauraedron: I answered you.... | 16:52 |
| s12 | change the shortcuts to something else | 16:52 |
| s12 | something that wont affect what you need | 16:53 |
| phunyguy | I told you where to find the shortcuts.... change them. | 16:53 |
| phunyguy | or delete. | 16:53 |
| s12 | ^ or that | 16:53 |
| sauraedron | @phunguy - stupid of me.. | 16:54 |
| sauraedron | thanks :) | 16:54 |
| phunyguy | also, you don't need the @. This isn't twitter ;) | 16:54 |
| sauraedron | tschh .. :D | 16:54 |
| jpedroza2k | Good morning. I just installed Pulseaudio 5 from the ppa in an attempt to stop my bluetooth headset from stuttering while listening to music. Now I can pair the headset, but it doesn't show up in sound settings. I have reset the bluetooth adapter, re-paired the headset, but all to no avail. Still no sound from headset. Is there a way to revert back to version 4 of pulseaudio, or is there a better way to fix this issue? | 16:55 |
| sauraedron | phunyguy, one more some shorcuts dont work (app based) like ctrl+shift+u in qtcreator | 16:55 |
| sauraedron | is it something i need to configure ? | 16:55 |
| phunyguy | sauraedron: there is probably some app-specific config, yes | 16:55 |
| phunyguy | that I can't help with. | 16:55 |
| sauraedron | ohk , thanks a lot :) | 16:56 |
| notmoose | hello all, my laptop goes into suspend mode after ~5min of doing nothing, even when its plugged in, while im watching a move | 16:58 |
| Beldar | jpedroza2k, Try looking in the terminal by running alsamixer | 16:58 |
| notmoose | how can i disable the suspend mode? | 16:58 |
| notmoose | ive already set the power management to Don't suspend, yet its still going in suspend mode after 5min | 16:58 |
| jpedroza2k | Beldar: I see Headphone 1 and Headphone, but only one can be controled (Headphone) which appears to be the hard wired headphone jack. | 16:59 |
| Beldar | jpedroza2k, Not really an issue I can help with other than the mixer. | 17:00 |
| Beldar | jpedroza2k, YOu can do a ppa-purge to get back to the ubuntu repos that the PPA changed. | 17:01 |
| Beldar | !ppa-purge | jpedroza2k | 17:01 |
| ubottu | jpedroza2k: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 17:01 |
| notmoose | guys please does anyone know how to disable suspend/sleep mode? | 17:01 |
| jpedroza2k | notmoose: System Settings->Power | 17:02 |
| iliv | any rsyslog users around? | 17:02 |
| iliv | when using imfile, is there a way to avoid writing to default /var/log/syslog and directly send messages to centralised log server? | 17:03 |
| iliv | so, what I'd like to do is on the client monitor a file with imfile, NOT write anything to syslog files on the client, and push that file's lines to a remote log server instead | 17:03 |
| notmoose | jpedroza2k: ive already tried that one, it still goes to suspend mode after 5min of not doing anything | 17:03 |
| jpedroza2k | notmoose: Not sure then. Did you make the change to both on battery and plugged in? | 17:04 |
| notmoose | yes i did | 17:04 |
| notmoose | the screen is plugged in to my tv though from my laptop, not sure if that matters | 17:05 |
| jpedroza2k | notmoose: Then I sadly must give you support answer #112: It works for me. | 17:05 |
| jpedroza2k | :( | 17:05 |
| notmoose | it mainly happends when im watching something with flash in fullscreen | 17:05 |
| notmoose | ah shit | 17:05 |
| notmoose | not the answer i was looking for :) | 17:06 |
| kookster | anyone know how i can close a ssh session based off the IP address that its connected to with? | 17:06 |
| kookster | im using "netstat -tnpa | grep ESTABLISHED.*sshd" to get all the connected SSH sessions | 17:07 |
| phunyguy | notmoose: please watch your language | 17:07 |
| Beldar | notmoose, Please keep the language clean. One of the keys for help here is details, like the release and desktop should be in your inquiry. Also be aware this is free help and has a wait time while people come on the channel and or understand and you have provided enough details. ;) | 17:07 |
| Pici | kookster: You could check the output of who, and then grep the output of psaux for that pts/number (killing the associated sshd process should do the trick) | 17:08 |
| kookster | could you type that out for me? I am really new to linux | 17:09 |
| mitch-_ | does anyone know about time zone automatically changing? | 17:09 |
| d4rks1d3r | can anyone point me to a good tutorial for compiling a kernel under ubuntu? | 17:09 |
| OerHeks | d4rks1d3r, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel | 17:10 |
| kookster | o gosh | 17:10 |
| kookster | i see | 17:10 |
| d4rks1d3r | OerHecks: thanks, i want to be able to customize it (e.g. using menuconfig) | 17:11 |
| kookster | ugh i really need to lock this server down. It looks like there are atleast 4 bots trying to bruteforce into it :/ | 17:12 |
| samthewildone | Is the channel fixed ? | 17:13 |
| Pici | kookster: You may want to look into fail2ban. | 17:13 |
| Pici | samthewildone: yes. | 17:13 |
| samthewildone | Pici, was tweaking ubuntu while waiting' | 17:13 |
| samthewildone | :| | 17:13 |
| kookster | to the googles! thanks Pici | 17:13 |
| Pici | kookster: the default configuration it comes with in Ubuntu is usually good enough for most people too :) | 17:14 |

| trijntje | nice clickbait aliteralmind, why don't you go away? | 17:23 |
| liam | Hey guys...I started the LFS101x Introduction to Linux course, through the Linux foundation . Kinda excited...anyone else did it? I hope to eventually work somehow in Linux and figured this a good introduction. Any opinions? | 17:24 |
| trijntje | !offtopic | liam | 17:24 |
| ubottu | liam: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 17:24 |
| SchrodingersScat | he actually was talking about blogging that yesterday, probably still !ot | 17:24 |
| aliteralmind | trijntje: I went through a lot of conversations yesterday on this group regarding this. People helped me. I'm showing them the results. By all means don't click on it. | 17:24 |
| liam | apologies, thanks anyway. | 17:25 |
| samthewildone | okay I enable the dev options and usb 3 still doesn't work. | 17:25 |
| trijntje | aliteralmind: I'm sorry. Its just that there's this spammer that does the same thing, joins the channel, and pastes an obfuscated link with some 'catchy' title ;) | 17:25 |
| theseb | why 1st terminal i open is SLOOOOW but then i open second and it is responsive? happens ALL THE TIME NOW | 17:26 |
| aliteralmind | trijntje: NP. Here's the full link: http://aliteralmind.wordpress.com/2014/08/07/doingthedeepdowndiggitydivewithdjangoanddigitalocean/ | 17:27 |
| x9 | Okay, I'm having a strange glitch in Xubuntu 14.04.1... | 17:27 |
| x9 | I was playing osu! under Wine when suddenly the computer locked up, Ctrl+Alt+F1 wasn't even going to a terminal. | 17:27 |
| SchrodingersScat | aliteralmind: curl -I can also get the header so you know where shorturls might lead | 17:28 |
| x9 | So I did a soft reset, and then after rebooting, the screen went black after logging in. I was able to get to a terminal with CTRL,ALT,F1 though, and did another soft reset. | 17:28 |
| trijntje | theseb: caching. If you have already opened something it is in the computer memory instead of on the harddisk, thats why its fast | 17:29 |
| x9 | The second reboot didn't even go to the login screen, and I wasn't getting a terminal. Rebooted into Recovery mode, and went to "Normal" boot, and finally it loads, but now I don't have an output to my second monitor and my background was reset to default. | 17:29 |
| === zopsi is now known as notzopsi | ||
| x9 | I'm going to try rebooting one more time, after I install irssi | 17:30 |
| Beldar | samthewildone, So you are not new here, we use nicks as a preface when addressing others. Did you check the box in the options for usb debugging, and unmount the usb and plug it back in? | 17:30 |
| theseb | trijntje: thanks...but even after launches the terminal is sTILL unresponsive like cpu is overloaded | 17:31 |
| theseb | trijntje: if i kill it and start 2nd one after loading it is responsive | 17:31 |
| aeyesi | um... does someone experience with 5:1 sound (yesh once again xD) | 17:31 |
| aeyesi | ? | 17:31 |
| Beldar | aeyesi, address the actual issue for help. | 17:32 |
| aeyesi | ok, how to enable 5.1 sound ? ^^ | 17:33 |
| aeyesi | I am not sure anymore if ubuntu have pulseaudio or alsa by default (old wikis says pulse but it seems i have only alsa) but meh | 17:33 |
| s12 | google didn't return anything for that search? | 17:33 |
| Beldar | aeyesi, Ubuntu release and desktop is important. | 17:33 |
| aeyesi | 14.04.1 | 17:34 |
| aeyesi | It does ... but many of them are somewhat old ~ | 17:34 |
| aeyesi | So i am just askin just for sure,... | 17:35 |
| samthewildone | Beldar, yes | 17:35 |
| pbx | in ubuntu 14.04, how do i remove Thunderbird from the little-envelope menu in the upper right? | 17:35 |
| Beldar | samthewildone, Thanks, not sure beyond that. There are wifi apps on google play that work | 17:36 |
| aeyesi | Beldar ... at least,,, alsa or pulseaudio is by default? | 17:36 |
| aeyesi | since /etc/pulse/daemon.conf does not exist i guess alsa | 17:39 |
| Beldar | aeyesi, So my contact with you was primarily a help for you to get help, not an area I really know, however here is a link since we do not know what you have tried so far, no details from you. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DigitalAC-3Pulseaudio | 17:39 |
| aeyesi | So i have to install pulseaudio i guess | 17:39 |
| aeyesi | mm | 17:40 |
| trism | pbx: in dconf-editor: com/canonical/indicator/messages and then remove the thunderbird.desktop from applications then run: restart unity-panel-service | 17:40 |
| Beldar | aeyesi, it is installed, that link shows dependencies. | 17:40 |
| trism | pbx: although if you run thunderbird again, it will probably return | 17:41 |
| Beldar | aeyesi, Be careful here and document any changes. | 17:41 |
| pbx | thanks trism | 17:41 |

| EsoRotica | Hi there: I'm attempting to move an extended partition into some unallocated space (Windows -> blank -> ubuntu ->blank) on my disk via GParted on the liveCD. However when I use Gparted, it never finishes scanning the drive. I've also attempted from the command line with the same result | 18:24 |

| frainfreeze | I didn't know anything about ubuntu while installing, now I am in this hoples mess, I need help, so I had windows7 when I decided to install ubuntu, I installed it and updated it up to 13.04 then I had problems and was offline.

| tac-tics | Does anyone have any ideas on why my Wifi might suddenly stop working after a while? | 18:27 |

| frainfreeze | I can't make backup | 18:29 |
| frainfreeze | And that is basicly my whole lif work in 100gb windows | 18:29 |
| MonkeyDust | frainfreeze you can do that, it will work, but you simply cannot upgrade or install something new | 18:29 |
| EsoRotica | frainfreeze: Thats fine. I'm assuming you paritioned off some space for Ubuntu to begin with. Do you have file there you need to save? | 18:29 |
| indoctrinated | tac-tics: what are you doing before your Wi-Fi drops? Is it the connection, or do you lose the device? | 18:29 |
| frainfreeze | So I can install 14 over 13? I wont loose windows files? | 18:30 |
| tac-tics | indoctrinated: Nothing in particular. Last night, I lost it while editing a text file, not doing any other work | 18:30 |
| frainfreeze | For ubuntu ones , it is not problem everything is mostly python and some of platform inependent c++, I need to keep windows working | 18:30 |
| MonkeyDust | frainfreeze if you have a separate /home | 18:30 |
| tac-tics | this laptop (not ubuntu) has had no trouble the last few days with it. Wireless modem is in the same room (literally 4 feet from the laptop) | 18:31 |
| MonkeyDust | frainfreeze if you have no important documents in ubuntu, choose "something else" and fresh install 14.04 | 18:31 |
| EsoRotica | frainfreeze: Well, there are a few ways to go about it... I would say the something else method on the CD | 18:31 |
| mjrbordo | ok i downloaded iso from official ubuntu.com (14.04.1) and i burn it on dvd. Why it not booting? | 18:31 |

| kamirpc | Hello guys :) | 18:32 |
| Guest82383 | What can I use to draw a shape in onCreateView in a fragment. I mean I can use a Button that has no listener but it seems like a poor solution, what is used to just draw a shape? | 18:32 |
| tac-tics | hmm. I never saw a wifi0. Is that distinct from wlan0? | 18:32 |
| EsoRotica | frainfreeze: if the intsall isnt borked, you could in theoretically just dist-upgrade | 18:32 |
| indoctrinated | they're the same. It depends on how you want to name the device | 18:32 |
| Beldar | mjrbordo, Did you set the dvd to be first read in the bios | 18:32 |
| tac-tics | Whatever the default is then | 18:32 |
| Guest82383 | Why does a button with the same width and height result in an oval shape and not a circle (it uses an OvalShape drawable as background)? | 18:33 |
| tac-tics | wlan0 is still around | 18:33 |
| tac-tics | so I didn't lose the device | 18:33 |
| mjrbordo | Beldar yes of course | 18:33 |
| frainfreeze | So when I run instalation, is there anything special i have to do and keep eye on? And can I remove 13 after installing 14 , as it is laptop with only 250gb of space | 18:33 |

| pdo_fn14 | Manually to refreshing db like apt-get update | 19:52 |
| pdo_fn14 | I'm mean | 19:52 |
| bprompt | levo: you can set Klipper's "history count" to have as many entries in it...so it doesn't remove entries till it gets to that "history count" value....which means you can tell it 1,000 and it will simply pile up 1,000 from the clipboard buffer | 19:52 |

| levo | bprompt: thanks, i'm taking a look @ it | 19:53 |

| PCworker | pbx: i went to that webpage you suggested and I appreciate it, much. That one is going to help a bunch. Thanks for the information. | 20:15 |
| daftykins | why not consult its' built-in settings... | 20:15 |
| user01 | daftykins: it says . . . When running Google Chrome under a supported desktop environment, the system proxy settings will be used. However, either your system is not supported or there was a problem launching your system configuration. | 20:16 |
| user01 | daftykins: it refers me to the man pages then | 20:16 |
| daftykins | user01: what is 'it' in this case? | 20:16 |
| user01 | daftykins: when i click on change proxy settings under network in advanced settings | 20:17 |
| daftykins | of what... | 20:17 |
| user01 | daftykins: chrome://settings/ | 20:17 |
| daftykins | is there something wrong with configuring it manually? | 20:18 |
| user01 | daftykins: manually where? | 20:18 |
| user01 | daftykins: im using xfce | 20:18 |

| === christoph is now known as Guest87082 | ||
| user01 | daftykins: is there a different tab for configuring manually? | 20:20 |

| user01 | daftykins: <user01> daftykins: when i click on change proxy settings under network in advanced settings | 20:21 |

| Shormax | Hi guys, can someone give me a good anti-malware for Ubuntu 14.04 pls ? :) | 20:59 |
| cybertails | Hello Folks... | 21:00 |
| cybertails | With Wubi, Why is there a Limit with 30GB for the install size? | 21:01 |
| Beldar | !av | Shormax | 21:02 |
| ubottu | Shormax: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 21:02 |
| Beldar | cybertails, That is the way it was developed. By the way it is not under support per-say and is designed for a try out in lieu of a full install. It can be transfered to a partition. | 21:03 |
| cybertails | I was just wondering as I was thinking of installing it on a partition on my External Hard Drive, that's why I asked :) | 21:04 |
| Beldar | cybertails, When transfered it can be extended to any size you would like. | 21:05 |
| cybertails | kk | 21:05 |
| Beldar | same with an regular install cyber | 21:05 |
| Beldar | cybertails, ^^ | 21:05 |
| Elena22 | Here some videos. I hope you like them! http://bitly.com/1nx3K4c | 21:05 |
| Beldar | Don't click on that anyone | 21:06 |
| cybertails | thanks for that, I think I'm going to do a dual-boot with the External Hard Drive having a seperate 100GB Partition (It's a 1TB Drive) | 21:06 |
| Beldar | cybertails, Would you like the transfer link? | 21:07 |
| Beldar | cybertails, An external is not the optimal use is all. | 21:07 |
| cybertails | Thanks for that, I'll be fine then | 21:07 |

| ahsm | ok well i have a question, i need some support :P | 21:09 |
| shmup | okay. preparing to install ubuntu. ~30 minutes of overall waiting. working internet connection (talking to you through it). any suggestions? | 21:09 |
| compdoc | shmup, grab a beer too | 21:09 |
| shmup | i have a few bananas and some iced coffee | 21:10 |
| Beldar | shmup, Address any issue you need, without details it is our guess. | 21:10 |
| Landinius | Question: is there a way to expand the Terminal log so u can scroll way longer that i can right now? | 21:10 |
| chriys | hi guys, I just installed openssh-server but for some reason I get connection refused when to connect (ftp and ssh) | 21:10 |
| shmup | Beldar: there are no details in the situation of sitting at the Preparing to Install Ubuntu screen. it is a screen with two checkboxes for additional drivers, and a continue button. | 21:10 |
| Beldar | Landinius, in edit-profile preferences | 21:11 |
| ahsm | when i installed ubuntu after downloading latest version (14.04 LTS) everything was dope but then i updated it and the super key + W now crashes unity... what could this be? | 21:11 |
| Beldar | shmup, Do it from the live desktop. | 21:11 |
| user123321 | what does the command "killall -0 {something}" do? | 21:11 |
| shmup | i've tried ubiquity --debug | 21:11 |
| shmup | Beldar: i am talking to you from live desktop | 21:11 |
| Beldar | shmup, Not sure I recognize that screen can you image it and post it in a imagebin? The install is pretty straight forward, if you have another OS there be sure it is imaged/cloned and or backed up, be prepared for any contingency. | 21:13 |
| shmup | this is a known issue since at least 12.04, but there are no known solutions. sure, i'll grab you a screenshot. | 21:14 |
| Beldar | shmup, cool and any links on the issue you see would be nice. | 21:14 |
| user123321 | Does anyone know what does "killall -0 haproxy" mean? I couldn't see the killall command with -0 prefix in the manpage. | 21:14 |
| Beldar | !patience | user123321 | 21:15 |

| shmup | 14.04.1 | 21:17 |
| Beldar | shmup, Cool is there an unallocated space for ubuntu? | 21:17 |
| shmup | Beldar: Oh, I thought that was a screen I'd get to after another continue, heh. I only just chose English for my language one click prior. | 21:18 |
| shmup | So maybe if I handle my partitions in Disks all will be well? | 21:19 |
| Beldar | shmup, Do you know what unallocated space means in this context? Is this a dual boot and if so with what exactly? | 21:19 |
| Guest2194 | Hi. Ive read a few google results about hard links. And I understand then as an inode pointing to a particular piece of data, exactly as a regular file. Does this "fool" my laptop into thinking it has less space than it does, as when I do a du from outside the folder, I get a sum of both files? | 21:19 |
| shmup | No, my space is all allowcated. I have an older build installed at the moment. I have a new SSD in here that I'm only going to install /home on. | 21:19 |
| shmup | allocated* | 21:20 |
| shmup | I just didn't know I had to prepare this ahead of time. I thought the installer brought you to a screen for that. | 21:20 |
| Beldar | shmup, allocated with what, my concern here is uefi/efi and gpt partitioning already there and any other OS's | 21:21 |
| shmup | They are already there, but are you saying that I can't get to the "Preparing disk space" process until I resolve something? | 21:22 |
| shmup | I'm going to just wipe out my drive that already has the gpt partitioning. | 21:22 |
| Beldar | shmup, We need to be on the same page, if you do not understand me address that.Yes there is a resize option, however if you have UEFI/efi this is a little different is all. | 21:23 |
| Landinius | thanks Beldar found it :) | 21:24 |
| Beldar | shmup> I'm going to just wipe out my drive that already has the gpt partitioning. YOU will still have a gpt partition table is all | 21:24 |
| Beldar | Landinius, Cool, no problem. | 21:24 |
| shmup | I need to determine if I have UEFI/efi | 21:25 |
| shmup | Is this an adequate way to determine? [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS | 21:26 |
| Beldar | shmup, Was this a W8 or apple computer ever, UEFI is a different bios setup it is noticeable. | 21:26 |
| shmup | No, neither of those | 21:27 |
| Beldar | shmup, Not sure on the command, let be prompt the bot on uefi just for info. | 21:27 |
| Beldar | !uefi | shmup | 21:27 |
| ubottu | shmup: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 21:27 |
| Landinius | ok got another terminal question. is there a /? u can use to use to load one page at a time and resume by using "space" or something? | 21:28 |
| Beldar | shmup, Mainly since you asked for info, just trying to make sure your set is all. | 21:28 |
| shmup | Yeah cool cool. Does it help you if you know that I installed 13.10 last year the same way I'm attempting to install 14.04 now? | 21:29 |
| shmup | I'm reading wiki for UEFI, though | 21:29 |
| ahsm | when i installed ubuntu after downloading latest version (14.04 LTS) everything was dope but then i updated it and the super key + W now crashes unity... what could this be? | 21:29 |
| Beldar | shmup, Sounds like you know what is up than if you have installed previously. | 21:30 |
| shmup | Beldar: I just meant that does it mean anything if normal installer worked last time with an upgrade, heh | 21:30 |
| shmup | Beldar: Did not mean to give a tone of _I am experienced_. Was hoping that would clue some information. | 21:30 |
| samthewildone | how do I empty my trashcan when I have root access files in them > | 21:31 |
| Beldar | shmup, This uefi/efi stuff has been around since at least the 12.04 release, ubuntu does automatic changes for this. What happens is if there is a W8 there it needs to be resized in windows is all leaving an unallocated space. | 21:31 |
| shmup | samthewildone: rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/* | 21:31 |
| shmup | Is one way, anyways. | 21:32 |

| Beldar | samthewildone, android has a two choice on read one is mtp the other media I believe I forget how to change this you might ask in #android as well. | 21:40 |
| Beldar | might be a click on the android drop down top left | 21:41 |
| samthewildone | I did that already | 21:42 |

| samthewildone | the other 2 works, camera & standard usb | 21:42 |

| guntbert | Dragin: you are looking for sudo , not su | 21:48 |
| guntbert | !sudo| Dragin | 21:48 |
| ubottu | Dragin: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.

| samthewildone | TJ-, the directory of kern.log | 21:51 |
| samthewildone | oh wait I can do "whereis ..." | 21:51 |
| samthewildone | nope | 21:52 |
| gabmus | hello people, i have a problem with a new laptop i just bought: the installation of 14.04 gnome works fine, but right after installation, on first boot i get a kernel panic. my machine is an asus laptop with a bay trail celeron and integrated graphics | 21:53 |
| samthewildone | gabmus, TJ- will tell you to see your kern.log | 21:53 |
| jhutchins | gabmus: Will it boot in rescue mode? | 21:54 |
| TJ- | samthewildone: all logs are in "/var/log/" ... simply do "sudo tail -n 1000 /var/log/kern.log | pastebinit" | 21:54 |
| gabmus | it boots with an older kernel | 21:54 |
| jhutchins | TJ-: This assumes it somehow gets around the kernel panic. | 21:54 |
| gabmus | it boots in 3.13.0-24 | 21:55 |
| gabmus | let me boot and ill pastebin the kernel log | 21:55 |
| TJ- | jhutchins: what kernel panic? | 21:55 |
| samthewildone | TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7983221/ | 21:55 |
| gabmus | not syncing something, let me just get the log | 21:56 |
| TJ- | samthewildone: "usb 8-2: new high-speed USB device number 12 using xhci_hcd" ... tells us the device reports itself as a USB2 device but it is using the USB3 controller in compatibility mode | 21:57 |
| samthewildone | :D | 21:57 |
| jhutchins | gabmus: Yeah, that's just saying it wasn't able to flush the disk cache, which isn't a problem at boot. | 21:57 |
| === megan is now known as Guest63888 | ||
| TJ- | samthewildone: Now with this info we can dig deeper: "lsusb -v -s 04e8:6860 | pastebinit" | 21:58 |
| gabmus | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7983237 | 21:58 |
| jhutchins | gabmus: So what does it NOT boot? | 21:58 |
| TJ- | samthewildone: That will tell us everything the USB device reports as its capabilities | 21:58 |
| gabmus | what? | 21:58 |
| jhutchins | Ah, boots with the older kernel. | 21:58 |
| gabmus | right | 21:59 |
| TJ- | gabmus: My bet would be the initrd.img file is incomplete for the newer kernel; possibly the /boot/ file-system ran out of space | 21:59 |
| jhutchins | sorry, gotta run. | 21:59 |
| === gabmoose is now known as gabmus | ||
| TJ- | gabmus: My bet would be the initrd.img file is incomplete for the newer kernel; possibly the /boot/ file-system ran out of space | 21:59 |
| gabmus | . | 22:00 |
| gabmus | shouldnt /boot be in the / partition? | 22:01 |
| gabmus | maybe installing a newer kernel could help? | 22:01 |
| === Lunariooo is now known as Lunario | ||
| maujhsn | gambmus i have an older ASUS laptop and I notice over time time ASUS, and Linux have issues The problem perhaps is in the BIOS! | 22:03 |
| === matthewvz is now known as Guest83788 | ||
| gabmus | what problem could there be in the bios? also my pc is brand new | 22:04 |
| gabmus | maybe i have to disable some intel shit? | 22:04 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Sometimes /boot/ can be in a separate file-system. Regardless, check the size of the latest kernel's initr.img ("ls -latr /boot/initrd.img*") and see if it looks significantly different to the other known good intrds | 22:04 |
| maujhsn | gabmus It is technical, and hard to explain! | 22:05 |
| gabmus | maujhsn: try to explain it at least | 22:05 |
| dlam | ehhh something weird happened and now when I `ls -l` it's all question mark thingys like: ??? anyone know what to check? | 22:05 |
| TJ- | gabmus: The fact that the older kernel boots successful is a strong indicator that the problem is *not* with the firmware configuration, a Panic with VFS is almost always when the kernel tries to mount the initrd image | 22:06 |
| Artemis3 | dlam, type reset | 22:06 |
| maujhsn | gabmus ASUS is microsoft software friendly...they are not Linux software friendly if that makes sense to you! | 22:07 |
| gabmus | kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt | 22:07 |
| gabmus | maujhsn: im sorry but it doesnt make much sense to me | 22:07 |
| maujhsn | ASUS and LINUX just dont like each other! | 22:07 |
| gabmus | TJ-: what am I supposed to do to fix this issue? | 22:07 |
| gabmus | maujhsn: i was told the exact opposite | 22:08 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Boot to the known-good kernel, then run the command I just recommended and compare the initrd.img* file sizes as I suggested | 22:08 |
| gabmus | TJ-: which command? | 22:08 |
| TJ- | maujhsn: That isn't helpful. Please stick to specific support issues. | 22:08 |
| maujhsn | gabmus whoever told you this is wrong! | 22:09 |
| nevermoreraven | I tried to use "firefox -ProfileManager" in terminal without quotes and it just opens the defualt profile instead in enlightenment de but don't have this problem with gnome | 22:09 |
| TJ- | gabmus: "ls -latr /boot/initrd.img*" and compare the file sizes to see if the most recent img file looks a lot different to the others | 22:09 |
| maujhsn | gambus Do you have linux installed on your ASUS! | 22:10 |
| gabmus | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7983318 | 22:10 |
| gabmus | i think the file sizes are similar, arent they? | 22:11 |
| joelmo | do anyone know if there is a place I can put a xorg.conf under my user directory so that rules are read at login | 22:11 |
| maujhsn | gambmus Or are you u running it on a USB? | 22:11 |
| gabmus | its running on the hdd | 22:12 |
| maujhsn | Ok | 22:12 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK, sizes look to be what to expect, so now try re-generating the suspect initrd.img | 22:12 |
| TJ- | gabmus: which kernel version is it that is failing? -32-generic? | 22:12 |
| gabmus | TJ-: yes | 22:12 |
| nevermoreraven | I tried to use "firefox -ProfileManager" in terminal without quotes and it just opens the defualt profile instead in enlightenment but don't have this problem with gnome | 22:13 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Let's try regenerating it, this at least can rule in/out whether the image is corrupt: "sudo update-initramfs -uv -k 3.13.0-32-generic" | 22:13 |
| TJ- | gabmus: You'll see a lot of messages (due to the -v verbose flag) ... if something goes wrong generating the image it should be obvious | 22:14 |
| Dragin | can anyone help me get past this error? http://pastebin.com/PZzc6b7f | 22:14 |
| hwilde | Dragin, locate rfftw.h | 22:14 |
| gabmus | done, stuff looks fine | 22:14 |
| gabmus | do I try to reboot or what? | 22:15 |
| Dragin | should'nt that have been in the tarball for rscw? | 22:15 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK, try a reboot... if it fails again, try another reboot but that time hold down Shift key as the system starts to get to GRUB boot menu, then choose Advanced sub-menu, and try the Recovery option | 22:15 |
| hwilde | Dragin, no it should have been installed when you ran "make" and "make install" for FFTW | 22:15 |
| Dragin | ahhh | 22:16 |
| Dragin | thanks | 22:16 |
| gabmus | TJ-: recovery with which kernel? | 22:16 |
| TJ- | Dragin: That is a dependency - you have to install the -dev packages of the relevant libraries yourself | 22:16 |
| Dragin | thanks | 22:16 |
| gabmus | TJ-: same issue, same kernel panic | 22:16 |
| TJ- | gabmus: The one that breaks ... you're hoping to get a better result because Recovery doesn't do so much as a regular start | 22:16 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Are you able to photograph the screen when it happens and upload it for us to view? | 22:17 |
| gabmus | do i have to take a pic to the kernel panic? | 22:17 |
| maujhsn | Yes | 22:17 |
| TJ- | gabmus: The next suggestion is an extension of the previous 'Recovery' method. In the boot menu, highlight the "Recovery" option then press 'e' to edit it. You'll get a simply text editor, navigate to the line beginning "linux ...", move to the end of the line and add the text "break=premount", then press Ctrl+X to boot the modified entry | 22:18 |
| TJ- | gabmus: This "break=premount" will interrupt execution of the initrd.img file-system's "/init" shell script, *if* the kernel is getting that far. If this leaves you at a shell prompt it proves the initrd.img is GOOD and we can look for other causes, such as a bad root file-system reference | 22:19 |
| nevermoreraven | I tried to use "firefox -ProfileManager" in terminal without quotes and it just opens the defualt profile instead in enlightenment but don't have this problem with gnome | 22:20 |
| TJ- | nevermoreraven: could "firefox" be a script that ignores that option? | 22:21 |
| gabmus | http://imgur.com/F4wcVGV | 22:21 |
| nevermoreraven | dunno | 22:21 |
| nevermoreraven | it works fine in gnome | 22:21 |
| nevermoreraven | but in enlightenment window manager it doesn't work | 22:22 |
| nevermoreraven | how would I know it is a script? | 22:22 |
| TJ- | nevermoreraven: show us "which firefox" and "hash -t firefox" | 22:22 |
| gabmus | it seems not to crash | 22:23 |
| gabmus | its stuck at "random: nonblocking pool is initialized" tho | 22:23 |
| nevermoreraven | hash -t firefox doesn't work TJ- | 22:23 |
| nevermoreraven | says it is not found | 22:23 |
| TJ- | nevermoreraven: OK, that rules out the bash shell having cached the path to an incorrect firefox script | 22:24 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK... that could be good news. You might need to press Enter a couple of times to get a shell prompt. or it may be you need to switch to the VT (virtual terminal) it is on with Alt+F1 or Alt+F7, depending in which is active now | 22:24 |
| gabmus | i am in (initramfs) console | 22:25 |
| TJ- | gabmus: That is great :) | 22:25 |
| gabmus | ok | 22:25 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK, I've just read the photo - thanks for that, it's very useful, it has pinpointed the cause. | 22:25 |
| gabmus | great! | 22:26 |
| gabmus | because my next hope is archbang xD | 22:26 |
| TJ- | gabmus: The panic is caused in the RTL driver's interrupt handler, I assume that system has a Realtek network device? | 22:26 |
| gabmus | yes, exactly | 22:26 |
| gabmus | do i need a driver for it or what? | 22:26 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK... this might not solve the problem permanently, but... if the cable is connected to the port (assuming it isn't WiFi!), try booting with the cable disconnected. That should prevent the card receiving interrupts | 22:27 |
| maujhsn | gabmus Your wasting your time w/ this! | 22:27 |
| gabmus | oki doki | 22:27 |
| styles | I've been running the open source drivers for my Radeon HD 7870 for some time. I wanted to try the closed sourced ones by AMD (because I'm going to start playing Dota and do see some issues with the open source ones). Do you recommend installing them from the AMD site or via the "Additional Drivers" | 22:28 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Arghhh no, stop | 22:28 |
| x_root | hello, just a doubt about bash, to open a program is just write the program command and.. that's it right? | 22:28 |
| TJ- | gabmus: I just did "modinfo rtl8221ae" and it reports it is a PCI WiFi device! | 22:28 |
| gabmus | TJ-: i get a kernel panic in fact | 22:28 |
| x_root | like, if everytime the sessio start i want to open "thunderbird" i put the *.desktop of the program in the .sh and.. that's it.. right? | 22:28 |
| styles | x_root, depends if the program is in your path? | 22:29 |
| gabmus | TJ-: what hopes do i have? | 22:29 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Is it possible you can disable wireless radio with a hardware kill switch? I'm trying to find away to get you started with the latest kernel so we can do direct diagnosis | 22:29 |
| x_root | my path styles? "/home/$USER"? | 22:29 |
| gabmus | so i cant use wifi? | 22:29 |
| gabmus | nor ethernet? | 22:29 |
| styles | x_root, type env | 22:29 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Well, the fact it boots fine with the older kernel means either there is a regression in the rtl8221ae driver, or something else has changed in the configuration for the more recent initrd | 22:30 |
| maujhsn | maujhsn :) | 22:30 |
| gabmus | TJ-: if i use the older kernel, the wifi doesnt work correctly | 22:30 |
| TJ- | gabmus: You can use Ethernet... but try disabling the Wifi radio, in case it helps | 22:30 |
| ObrienDave | gabmus, calm down, be patient, let TJ- help you | 22:30 |
| x_root | styles, did.. and now? | 22:30 |
| x_root | mandatory path? | 22:31 |
| gabmus | sorry | 22:31 |
| TJ- | gabmus: OK ... well that sort-of points to the kernel driver being broken even more... maybe this later kernel was thought to fix the known bugs but just hits other more serious bugs. | 22:31 |
| Dragin | WOW! To have been such a small file, it took forever to make! | 22:31 |
| TJ- | gabmus: My first step now would be to suggest we blacklist that kernel module so it isn't loaded... then you can boot into the more recent kernel safely, and we can work from there | 22:31 |
| Jammerx2 | There's a window that I move partially off screen (the title bar only) by alt + dragging. Whenever the window loses focus it shifts it down and to the right, is there any easy way to combat that? | 22:31 |
| TJ- | gabmus: boot into the older kernel, and at a terminal do: "echo 'blacklist rtl8221ae' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rtl8221ae.conf" | 22:33 |
| nevermoreraven | TJ- what should I do? | 22:33 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Then, all being well, you can safely boot into the newer kernel (without the WiFi for now) so we can investigate more | 22:33 |
| maujhsn | gabmus What model ASUS do you have? | 22:33 |
| TJ- | nevermoreraven: I'm not sure, if you are executing the regular firefox executable the only explanation that makes sense would be a typo in the command line | 22:34 |
| nevermoreraven | i see | 22:34 |
| TJ- | maujhsn: if you read the kernel panic you'd see it is a X551MA with BIOS revision 402 | 22:35 |
| gabmus | command done, do i reboot now? | 22:36 |
| daftykins | TJ-: for assistance with gabmus' issue, it's the kernel... bug 1341275 | 22:36 |

| guest683 | can you read that? | 22:38 |
| TJ- | gabmus: install the recommended packages in that article from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/ | 22:38 |
| gabmus | thank you, just let me try! btw will my wifi work this way? | 22:39 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: That page is not loading for me, possibly blocked by my work. Can you use a different pastebini site please? | 22:39 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Yes | 22:39 |
| guest683 | hello? | 22:39 |
| MoProductions | I’m almost embarassed to ask, but I can see a file called profiler.dat in my window, but can’t seem to get a terminal to find it with the find command. I’m actually looking for a different file but was using that as a test case. Is tehre a simple “just look thru the whole system and show me where every file named “foo” is”? | 22:39 |
| daftykins | guest683: didn't see a first message, no. ask a question if you have one | 22:39 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: that's because it's supposed to be local network only | 22:39 |
| adymitruk | nslookup works for google.com and others | 22:40 |
| daftykins | MoProductions: "man find" | 22:40 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Well I'll need to see what you're typing and your error in order to be able to help. | 22:40 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Ah, it just loaded. | 22:40 |
| bram__ | hmm, never mind looks fixed after deleting the software raidsets, however i did dd if=/dev/random on all the disks and created a blank partition | 22:40 |
| MoProductions | i’m a bit new to linux and the man page + other websites couldn’t answer my questions | 22:41 |
| Dragin | How do I give myself permissions to do what needs to be done to these folders please? http://pastebin.com/ncCarRJh | 22:41 |
| rypervenche | MoProductions: You can type "sudo updatedb" then "locate blah" will give you everything you need. | 22:41 |
| gabmus | so i have to install the image and headers deb for amd64? | 22:41 |
| rypervenche | MoProductions: If you need it to grab something case insensitive, use "locate -i blah" | 22:42 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: And you're using "api.stackato-t3xs.local" in your browser? | 22:42 |
| maujhsn | gambus i386! | 22:42 |
| gabmus | i have amd64 | 22:42 |
| MoProductions | rypervenche: Ahhhh….”locate”….that seemed to work out great even without the -i. Didn’t know about that command, thank you. | 22:42 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: https:// | 22:43 |
| rypervenche | Dragin: You need to have root permissions to be able to add anything to /usr/local. | 22:43 |
| adymitruk | but yes | 22:43 |
| gabmus | and what about the all package? do i have to install that too? | 22:43 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Correct, the -generic_amd64.deb and and _all.deb | 22:43 |
| gabmus | so 3 debs? | 22:43 |
| TJ- | gabmus: correct | 22:43 |
| gabmus | sorry if i may sound ripetitive, but i just have to make sure :3 | 22:43 |
| TJ- | gabmus: You're quite right to query if you are unsure :) | 22:43 |
| Dragin | so then I need to do the make install as root then? | 22:43 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: What does "dig api.stackato-t3xs.local" give you? Also try it without the .local. I believe it is probably using mDNS since it's a .local address, so dig/nslookup probably won't work for that. | 22:44 |
| rypervenche | Dragin: Yes, unless you decide to play it somewhere else on your system. I'd recommend using "sudo checkinstall" instead though, because it will create a deb package and install it for you. | 22:44 |
| skypce | hello people | 22:44 |
| rypervenche | Dragin: It doesn't always work, but when it does, it makes it easy to remove the package from your system :) | 22:45 |
| Dragin | thanks =) | 22:45 |
| gabmus | done, im rebooting | 22:45 |
| skypce | which package has gtk-update-icon-cache ? | 22:45 |
| adymitruk | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/rolqL8rG | 22:45 |

| adymitruk | rypervenche: so how does the browser resolve it then? | 22:48 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: If you want something resolveable, try a non .local address and see if that works for you. | 22:49 |
| qtrain | having trouble with npm Node is installed correctly but when i try to run npm i get Error: ENOENT, stat '/../../.node' Any ideas | 22:49 |

| adymitruk | rypervenche: can't change it | 22:49 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: It can resolve, but it uses multicast DNS to do it, not DNS, which is what nslookup uses. | 22:49 |

| adymitruk | rypervenche: another machine | 22:51 |
| gabmus | TJ-: the wifi just doesnt work... but i remember i blacklisted the driver, so im deleting the .conf file that blacklists the wifi driver and im trying again | 22:51 |
| adymitruk | I think it's the last machine that's a windows service | 22:51 |

| adymitruk | rypervenche: weird.. I'm seeing it quick.. | 22:53 |
| maujhsn | gabmus I've had the same issues with my older model ASUS, and not getting wifi to work! | 22:53 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: can you curl https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/B5wlCTCc | 22:53 |
| === albortcha is now known as oddjob | ||
| rypervenche | adymitruk: It's my work blocking it. I just created a tunnel and can see it now. So your DNS servers are local, so you either need to have the address in /etc/hosts or it won't resolve. | 22:53 |
| gabmus | any idea to make the wifi work? | 22:54 |
| === oddjob is now known as weltardt | ||
| rypervenche | adymitruk: So you'll probably want to change what your nameserver(s) should be. | 22:54 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: catch-22.. I'm trying to use the DNS entry to get the IP | 22:54 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: That's not a catch 22, put your DNS server's IP in your resolv.conf. | 22:55 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Right, the rtl8821ae driver is the Linux kernel staging tree. That is for poor quality drivers, often from manufacturers, that are candidates to be cleaned up so they can join the mainline drivers. So, you can consider the driver currently experimental (at least for the 3.13 kernel version in Trusty) | 22:55 |
| maujhsn | Lucky for me I own an old HP laptop w/ AMD technolgy as well! | 22:55 |
| TJ- | gabmus: in what way "not working" ? "tail -n 1000 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit" will help us here | 22:55 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: so how ever the browser is managing to find the IP, I need to do the same | 22:55 |
| === weltardt is now known as blbofjd | ||
| gabmus | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7+9 | 22:55 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Your browser is probably using mDNS, like I said, so it is using a multicast request to find the IP. nslookup won't do that. | 22:55 |
| fun | hey folks who have used ovh here? | 22:56 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: It's only able to do that because of the .local ending. | 22:56 |
| gabmus | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7983609 sorry | 22:56 |
| rypervenche | fun: I've got OVH. | 22:56 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: so what can I use from the command line to find it? | 22:56 |
| gabmus | the wifi doesnt work meaning that it doesnt detect any wifi network around while im like 30cm far from the router | 22:56 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: is there some mdns alternative to nslookup? | 22:56 |
| d4rks1d3r | Hi, anyone with good experience in Ubuntu? Namely the bootup process? | 22:56 |
| fun | rypervenche: I got idea to try and create snapshot of VPS 1 and restore to VPS2, would it work? customer service saying yes and now | 22:57 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Try ping? | 22:57 |
| d4rks1d3r | I have a very strange issue, and I hope somebody can crack this riddle :) | 22:57 |
| Beldar | d4rks1d3r, Many, what is the issue? | 22:57 |
| fun | this way I can spin more ready made ubuntu instances :D | 22:57 |
| maujhsn | gabmus Try the latest linux mint instead you may have better luck with it installed on your ASUS! | 22:57 |
| gabmus | d4rks1d3r: write the whole problem in one message please | 22:57 |
| gabmus | maujhsn: its ubuntu based :I | 22:57 |
| blbofjd | ?? | 22:57 |
| maujhsn | Yes! | 22:58 |
| maujhsn | But better | 22:58 |
| blbofjd | hehe | 22:58 |
| gabmus | maujhsn: im not quite sure there isnt a way to make wifi work in ubuntu if there is on mint | 22:58 |
| Beldar | maujhsn, please opinions to yourself. | 22:58 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: ping works :) | 22:59 |
| d4rks1d3r | Here goes: I installed Ubuntu 14.04 server - no GUI - during the boot, the screen goes blank (no video input). However, everything else works fine, i can ssh and do whatever | 22:59 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Also, you could do "dig @224.0.0.251 -p 5353 api.stackato-t3xs.local" | 22:59 |
| adymitruk | what's so special about 224. ip? | 23:00 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: That uses the multicast address. | 23:00 |
| === blbofjd is now known as weltardt | ||
| maujhsn | gabmus Linux Mint works w/ wifi on my old ASUS! | 23:00 |
| TJ- | gabmus: Thanks. It seems the driver for the RTL8221ae has been asked to scan for networks, and is in a loop switching between 2.4GHz and 5.xGHz frequency bands ("rtl8821ae-0:rtl8821ae_phy_switch_wirelessband():<0-0> 5G") | 23:00 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: 224.0.0.251 is the multicast DNS address. | 23:00 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: ok.. that worked | 23:00 |
| d4rks1d3r | I forgot, also when I shut it down, it freezes during the process | 23:00 |
| l337_ | can someone help me please? I'm having problems with ssh access. It stopped working for me (using terminal on mac). ssh: connect to host **.***.**.** port 22: Connection refused | 23:01 |
| === l337_ is now known as l337 | ||
| Beldar | d4rks1d3r, If you have ssh reload the mbr with grub | 23:01 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: does nslookup have a similar functionality? | 23:01 |
| fun | l1337 try another machine | 23:01 |
| fun | also reboot u ubuntu box | 23:01 |
| gabmus | TJ-: any idea? | 23:01 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: I would hope so. I don't use nslookup. I'd recommend using dig, but I'd have to check the man page to figure it out. | 23:02 |
| skypce | !find appstream-glib | 23:02 |
| d4rks1d3r | Beldar: if it was a grub problem, it wouldnt boot to the point to be accessable | 23:02 |
| ubottu | Package/file appstream-glib does not exist in trusty | 23:02 |
| d4rks1d3r | right? | 23:02 |
| Beldar | d4rks1d3r, Okay you're the expert. ;) | 23:02 |
| fun | rypervenche: any ideas about restoring snapshop to vps 2? | 23:02 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: if dig is better, I'm not going to worry about it.. I'll read up on it and use it | 23:02 |
| fun | on ovh :) | 23:02 |
| adymitruk | rypervenche: thank you very much! You've saved me a day | 23:02 |
| l337 | fun: done, same thing | 23:03 |
| rypervenche | fun: I don't use a VPS with them. I'm not sure what hypervisor they use on their end. You'd probably have to ask them, and even then they may not know. :P | 23:03 |
| TJ- | gabmus: I'd like some proof that driver ever works first - someone else that can use it. With it being in staging, and looking at the recent commits affecting it, I think I'd consider it mostly 'broken' :) | 23:03 |
| rypervenche | adymitruk: Anytime :) | 23:03 |
| fun | rypervenche: yes they dont know :) they use VMware something hypervisors | 23:03 |
| l337 | what the hell, I didn't change anything | 23:03 |
| fun | l337: then access via console | 23:04 |
| fun | and issue service ssh restart something like that | 23:04 |
| gabmus | TJ-: so no way my wifi will work anytime soon right? | 23:04 |
| d4rks1d3r | Beldar: I'm asking...Trying to understand, however it's worth the shot - what should I use to update MBR? | 23:04 |
| fun | restart ssh service | 23:04 |
| rypervenche | fun: SSH is apparently no longer accepting requests on that port from your machine. I'd do a telnet from another machine to see if it's listening for other IPs. If not, then you'll need to get console access to the machine. | 23:05 |
| Beldar | d4rks1d3r, grub-install /dev/sdX X is the HD and needs root or sudo. | 23:05 |
| rypervenche | l337: ^ rather | 23:05 |
| fun | hehe | 23:05 |
| Beldar | d4rks1d3r, Than update-grub same root or sudo | 23:05 |
| idefine | hi, where can I specify options for upstart? Specifically I'd like to set a value for --logdir | 23:06 |
| TJ- | gabmus: It is asked to scan by wpa_supplicant: "00:51:17 GabMus-Asus-X551MA wpa_supplicant[775]: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED " ... but just keeps flipping between frequency bands. | 23:06 |
| gabmus | cant i force one frequency manually? | 23:07 |
| TJ- | gabmus: There are some new parameters that can be passed to the module to modify its behaviour; I'm checking on what they might do to help, now | 23:08 |
| l337 | rypervenche: I have console access to it | 23:08 |
| gabmus | thank you kindly :3 | 23:08 |
| l337 | rypervenche: what do I do? | 23:08 |
| TJ- | gabmus: oooo... firmware! can you "grep firmware /var/log/dmesg | pastebinit" ? | 23:08 |
| gabmus | sure just a sec | 23:09 |

| TJ- | gabmus: Not a staging kernel, no. You've installed the latest mainline kernel... but this particular driver is in the kernel's 'staging' source-code tree because it is not up to quality - Relatek dumped it there and expect kernel devs to tidy up their mess | 23:21 |

| TJ- | gabmus: You remember the Mainline Kernel Builds wiki page I pointed you to? Bookmark it, and check back every month or so to look at the recent mainline builds in the PPA ... as work on kernel version 3.17 gets underway there will be a series of Release Candidate builds available... rc1, rc2, ... etc, until the final 3.17 is released.
