[09:05] moin === JonathanS is now known as JonahtanD === JonahtanD is now known as JonathanD [09:44] hi. i'm trying to connect my pc to the router through eth0 and avoid wlan0 (don't know why, the router is refusing high speed and large bandwidth with wlan). [09:45] what i would like to do is to avoid a dynamic dhcp ip and to set the same static ip that i had with my wlan0. [09:46] the problem is that when i try to give the data, i cannot reach internet anymore (only connection pc-router is possible). [09:48] i should make something wrong, or i'm forgetting something. could someone take my hand and make me walking right to the solution as one can do with a 5y.o. child ? thank you in advance. [09:49] Ab3L: Could you pastebin the output of "ip a s" and "ip route"? [09:51] thank you lordievader: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8006442/ [09:55] do you see, i currently have 192.168.1.43, and would like to have ...12 (the range of dhcp auto ip from the router starts from 33 to 64 or something like that). [09:56] Ab3L: Have you set that in /etc/network/interfaces? [09:57] now it is so: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8006479/ [09:58] i've deleted everything because with my home made settings i couldn't reach internet :D [10:00] Ab3L: If you want a static interface in there you would have to define it. http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [10:02] lordievader: not in the network manager? [10:04] Ab3L: If you want more flexibility you could do it in the network manager, personally I do not really like the NM for static interfaces. [10:05] thx [10:30] d [10:30] how to install flash ? [10:30] i cant locate the package in the "software center" [10:43] Does any on know when KDE5 will e ready for Kubuntu? [10:47] Any one know about KDE5 [10:47] has any one tried it here? [10:58] 'Morning all [11:02] kidx: there is no such thing as KDE5 [11:09] lordievader: it seems it doesn't work. if i put those settings in /etc/network/interfaces eth0 is no more reachable [11:10] lordievader: i mean, i cannot use eth0 anymore [11:12] Ab3L: Please pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file. [11:15] Ab3L, /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base overwrites the /etc/resolv.conf file so any settings you need in resolv.conf have to be enterd in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base. That's why your interfaces file isn't connecting eth0 [11:16] Ab3L, and ignore the warning in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base [11:16] ok, BluesKaj. i'll give a look there too. [11:17] btw, this is what i put in /etc/network/interfaces: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8006991/ . then i've commented broadcast and network. but eth0 was unreachable. [11:19] Ab3L: What's the output of are you able to ping 8.8.8.8? [11:21] lordievader: seems everything is ok: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8007007/ [11:22] ok plasma 5 [11:22] or is plasma 5 still buggy? [11:22] BluesKaj: /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base is empty [11:22] Ab3L: So it is the DNS, follow BluesKaj's advice. [11:23] BluesKaj: and this is /etc/resolv.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8007025/ [11:25] next step ? [11:25] Ab3L: You want to add "192.168.1.1" as your DNS. [11:27] Ab3L, so you aren't using network manager I assume ? [11:29] BluesKaj: No. [11:30] you're loosing me. sorry. i'd like to have static ip 192.168.1.12. then have i to edit /etc/network/interfaces like in http://paste.ubuntu.com/8006991/ right? but so i cannot use eth0 anymore. where should i put DNS ? [11:31] BluesKaj: i tried to set static ip through network manager. but i think i'm doing something wrong and have no access to internet [11:31] Ab3L: Yes that is correct, all you need to do is add the dns server either to that file or to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head [11:32] ok , good ...perhaps the /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file is no longer in use , it's been a while since I used static IP without network manager. I switched back to NM about a yr ago when I started using openvpn [11:33] BluesKaj: are you able to set static ip in NM? [11:33] Ab3L: Add "dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1" to your /etc/network/interfaces file, it is the nicest approach. [11:33] no [11:35] lordievader, I tried adding the the nameservbers to the network interfaces , but itdidn't worj in my setup , I had to add it to/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base or head [11:35] * BluesKaj searches for his glasses [11:36] BluesKaj: It might be that you where missing a package. [11:37] The resolvconf package needs to be installed. [11:37] lordievader, adding the nameservers to the interfaces file seems more direct and efficient tho [11:37] BluesKaj: It is nicer as you can have different dns's per interface. Instead of a global dns. [11:38] look. this is the output of my ifconfig: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8007115/ [11:39] and this that of /etc/network/interfaces: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8007126/ [11:40] notice, i've commented broadcast, because i think this is optional, isn't it? [11:41] Ab3L: Not if you want to be able to generate broadcast traffic. [11:42] Ab3L: We've already established that it is a DNS problem, no need to post ifconfig details ;) [11:42] Ab3L: After you've added the dns-nameserver line have you restarted the interface? [11:43] lordievader: i posted it because so it is easier to check if i put the right ip numbers. [11:44] добрый день. [11:44] lordievader: i don't know whether or not i want broadcast traffic. [11:45] lordievader: i think the ip i put there should be the right one, because i got it from ifconfig. in case i need broadcast traffic i can uncomment it, right? [11:45] !ru | sasha_ [11:45] sasha_: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. [11:46] Ab3L: Jup. [11:47] ok. i've uncommented broadcast and let's try with broadcast on. now i think that i've to restart the service so that changes are taken into account, right? [11:47] Ab3L, yes [11:48] Ab3L: For the moment, the broadcast settings do not matter. What does matter however are the dns settings. [11:48] i've to give something like : sudo service networking stop, and then start. [11:49] meanwhile i loose the line... am i right? [11:49] restart] [11:49] sudo service networking restart ? [11:50] * Ab3L is waiting for a Yes or No [11:50] Ab3L, it used to be, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [11:51] but you might be right [11:51] BluesKaj: ok. it should be the same. i'm trying your line first. [11:52] mmmh.... with "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" i got no message in my terminal. [11:53] BluesKaj: Those two are equivalent. [11:53] my ip still ends by 43 [11:53] Ab3L: Was NM running when you started to config this? [11:54] lordievader: yes [11:54] lordievader, I used to get a warning about init.d [11:54] Ab3L: Then the NM has claimed the device. Easiest would be to simply reboot. [11:54] BluesKaj: me too [11:54] BluesKaj: It is not the prefered way, but it should still work. [11:55] lordievader: ok. i'll reboot the system. [11:57] lordievader, I removed NM when using static IP so it wouldn 't overwrite resolv.conf ...suppose I could have disabled it [12:00] BluesKaj: NM doesn't use devices specified in /etc/network/interfaces [12:01] but i have to admit NM has improved since yrs ago when I dropped it in favour of network interfaces and resolv.conf [12:02] lordievader, well it still overwrites the resolv.conf file afaik] [12:10] BluesKaj: lordievader: it was unsuccessful. with those settings i cannot reach the router. [12:13] here is what i have after reboot: http://wstaw.org/m/2014/08/10/NM.png [12:15] do you see NM on the top right ? no interface available. === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [12:18] Ab3L, check this out , it's a bit dated so substitute /etc/resolv.conf settings to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head , http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html [12:21] BluesKaj: but that file contains no useful information. i've nothing to erase. [12:23] your dns nameserver settings should be entered in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head [12:26] Ab3L: That about the NM not showing any interface is correct. NM no longer manages them. [12:26] Ab3L: Was more interested in the "ip a s" output at that stage. [12:26] Ab3L, like so http://paste.kde.org/p8eg4lfzy [12:27] just substitute your numbers [12:28] lordievader: here ifconfig, ip a s, and ip route, after reboot [12:29] BluesKaj: is that your /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head ? [12:30] it was , but i no longer use it, it's just acopy since i switched to NM [12:31] BluesKaj: and you never set a static ip in NM ? [12:31] no [12:31] I removed NM [12:32] but one can jusrt disable NM if needed [12:33] at the time NM kept re-enabling itself so i just removed it...that was quite a few yrs ago [12:37] it's too complicated to use a vpn service without NM , so I use it now [12:46] Ab3L: Err, where? [12:55] i'm breaking my head against the wall... [13:00] lordievader: do you remember what is the name of that application that limits the bandwidth? it is something like hot dog.... [13:00] Ab3L: ? I have no idea what you are talking about... Did you succeed in setting a static ip? [13:01] lordievader: no. i didn't. i'm trying to make the void in my head, so maybe after i'll have some idea on how to set that damned static ip. [13:06] Ab3L: Could you pastebin the output of "ip a s" and "ip route" after you've enabled a static ip? [13:07] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8007740 [13:07] some output... [13:08] ip a s, ip route, ifconfig [13:11] Ab3L: This is after a reboot with the static ip set up? [13:11] lordievader: yes, and you can see at line 29? my static ip seems to have been accepted. but if you see at the picture i sent before, i've no connection available. [13:12] http://wstaw.org/m/2014/08/10/NM.png [13:18] Ab3L: As I've told you before, that is NM, NM doesn't do anything anymore that is correct. [13:18] Ab3L: Are you able to ping your router? [13:19] didn't try. [13:20] as i saw NM showed no connection, i saved the output i've pastebinned, commented the lines in interfaces and reboot again [13:20] i retry [13:20] wait for me [13:27] as i'm chatting... i'm online [13:28] i'm so sorry, lordievader [13:28] but nm was confusing me [13:30] Ab3L: ;) [13:37] now I'm confused, why doesn't he just disable NM it's interfering with his resolv.conf settings \ [13:38] BluesKaj: It doesn't ;) [13:39] well seems to me it's mucking things up [13:39] BluesKaj: He was simply confused, NM no longer showed any interfaces and Ab3L thought this meant it didn't work. [13:39] BluesKaj: Everything works now... [13:41] I was looking at controlling openvpn from the interfaces and resolv.conf files , but it was too much trouble, NM does the job nicely now [13:41] it's much improved from a few yrs ago [14:05] Whenever I install Kubuntu to a VM, I simply select Guided - Use entire [virtual] disk. If I want to install 14.10 and 14.04.1 and dual-boot, which should I select? [14:08] mparillo, do that with both OSs on the virtual partitions afaik [14:09] mparillo, BluesKaj: That is the easiest/cleanest. [14:10] Thank you BluesKaj and lordievader. Virtual Partitions = LVM? [14:10] mparillo: For example. [14:11] it's not really a dual boot, it's 2 guest OSs [14:14] TY, and I already have used guest OSs. I guess I am looking at partitioning my disk, and at boot time selecting one release or the other. [14:15] mparillo: Real or virtual? [14:16] I think real. I have 250 GB, which should be plenty big for separate instances. [14:16] I do not have much user data. [14:18] mparillo, yes, real is my preference altho VMs have their place [14:19] mparillo: The way I do multi-boot is by having one /home and a logical volume for each os. [14:21] Thank you. And the way to use logical volumes is to pick Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM? [14:21] mparillo: No that will format the whole drive. [14:22] ssareen: with kubuntu 14.04 you can be sure it works and the kde version is not too outdated [14:22] mparillo: What is your current situation and what do you want to do? [14:23] Could you suggest a distribution in which kdevelop works fine [14:23] And installs without hussle [14:23] ssareen: kdeuser56 just did, Kubuntu Trusty. [14:23] ssareen: kubuntu ;-) utopic is the unreleased version, not stable yet, so you have to expect rough edges, though most of the time it works great [14:24] Okay [14:24] ssareen: http://se.cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/14.04/release/ download the 14.04.1 version [14:24] I would like to completely blow away my disk. I would like to install 14.10. But if I would like the option of installing the 14.10 Plasma Next version also. Then choose which to boot at boot time. No need to share data between them (everything I have fits within dropbox). [14:25] mparillo: where is the problem? create two partitions on one install regular 14.10 on the other partition the plasma next version [14:25] mparillo: You have absolutely no valuable data on the disk? [14:26] mparillo: If so, first time round use "guided - use entire disk and lvm", second time round you'll have to use the mini iso as custom lvm setups are too hard for ubiquity. [14:27] lordievader: No valuable data. [14:27] you can't do it from the manual partition setup? [14:28] I have never done anything other than Guided - Use entire [virtual] disk. [14:29] So I could use the entire disk, and then shrink it when I want to dual boot, but I have never tried that also. [14:33] tsimpson: The manual partition setup has trouble with lvm volumes for as far as I'm aware. [14:35] mparillo, check this out, http://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation [14:39] Thank you all. === Graefin_Westerho is now known as Graf_Westerholt [15:21] Trying to run a bin file, but it's saying permission denied, that is after setting it to executable. [15:23] skinux, using sudo ? [15:23] Yes. [15:24] is it maybe a 32bit binary and you're on 64bit (or vice versa)? [15:24] check what "file /path/to/bin" says [15:24] It's a 64bit binary and I'm on 64bit [15:24] ok, what's the commans sudo path/to/file/./file.bin ? [15:24] It says 'data' [15:25] err command [15:25] ?? [15:25] seems like it's not any kind of file type the system recognizes [15:25] That must mean downloaded was corrupted. [15:26] check if there's a md5sum or sha1sum of the download you can check against [15:26] if not then try downloading again [15:35] I don't see either of those listed. And downloading again didn't help either. [15:35] I'm trying to download JIRA for x64 Linux. [17:42] skinux: if you are downloading JAR files they are ZIP files and carry their own checksums [17:48] I have a problem that some jpg images are shown with the wrong colors. Switching to an other user gives a normal view of these images. So I think it must be some setting in my account? [17:59] jaapio: that's extremely unlikely [18:00] jaapio: also your report is amazingly vague. Which program? How "wrong" are the colours? [18:01] Walex: all application. for example http://ic.tweakimg.net/ext/i/1404376942.png this is pink on my screen [18:01] but when I switch to an other user account it's black [18:02] jaapio: Have you made changes to the gamma settings or other video related settings? [18:02] lordievader: not that I'm aware of [18:03] jaapio: note that is a PNG. [18:03] jaapio: also note on that my system that box is neither pink nor black, it is sort of fdark goldenrod [18:04] Same here ;) [18:04] jaapio: it is more likely that your browser or your X windows server is in a corrupted state. [18:04] jaapio: Is your monitor connected through VGA? [18:04] lordievader: no dvi. [18:05] Walex: sounds like a reboot should solve this. Which is not the case? [18:05] jaapio: try to download that image and look at it with something like 'gwenview' [18:06] jaapio: cd /tmp; wget http://ic.tweakimg.net/ext/i/1404376942.png; gwenview 1404376942.png [18:06] ok, looks gold like [18:06] jaapio: then try another browser... [18:07] try another browser and this may shiow whether it is a browser issue or an X issue [18:08] Walex: rekonq looks ok. Firefox is pink [18:08] jaapio: I have seen that happen either with buggy X drivers or with broken HW GPUs. [18:08] Looks gold to me in Firefox [18:08] jaapio: but it could be a bug in Firefox for example. [18:08] Same in Chromium [18:09] jaapio: how does this look like: http://html-color-codes.com/ [18:11] Walex: looks ok, checked it with my android phone [18:12] jaapio: most likely situation there is something wrong with Firefox, but it could be something wrong with the specific calls that Firefox uses to display images [18:12] If it is a bug in firefox it doesn't explain why also my raw photos look like they have a pink overlay [18:12] I'd earlier say it is a buggy driver. [18:12] jaapio: What graphics card + driver do you use? [18:13] jaapio: however, if the color table renders right, that means that probably Firefox renders color right, but somehow decodes or displays compressed images wrong. [18:14] lordievader: an intel onboard chipset (intel hd graphics 2000/3000) [18:14] lordievader: this board http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H61DES3/ [18:16] jaapio: I'd also look at 'less less +G /var/log/Xorg.0.log' and 'dmesg | less +G' to see if there are any errors from X or the X driver [18:16] jaapio: how to look at the photos that have a "pink overlay" [18:17] Walex: using digikam [18:17] jaapio: weird. Same using Gwenview? [18:19] he, that's strange. Now they look ok. But also in digikam :-S sorry for that one. [18:22] Walex: in the ubuntu channel they told me to execute "gconftool-2 --unset /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_color_scheme" but since I'm running kde I though it would have any effect. [18:22] Just tried it. And it looks like it helped? [18:23] firefox uses gtk [18:24] thanks for everyone's help [18:25] valorie: which is a gnome thing? [18:26] gtk is the toolkit that gnome uses [18:26] so it's the other way around [18:26] jaapio: color schemes apply to the window GUI elements like menus, not to the displayed content. [18:27] so it must be something else. [18:27] jaapio: so that command should not have influenced the content. [18:27] jaapio: it may be a rather weird bug in Firefox triggered perhaps by some plugin like Flash. [18:28] jaapio: try to start a new Firefox instance with a new profile. [18:28] Walex: I just did that. which solved the issue [18:29] so thanks again [18:30] jaapio: but it is strnage that it happens with Firefox in two different user accounts that therefore don't share profiles... [18:30] jaapio: so it might be driver bugs after all [18:32] If this happens again I will try to find it. But since the issues are gone it will be hard to find anything. I could have a look in the logs if you are interested [19:44] All; Not getting any answers on WP channel, all must be asleep! Wondering if anyone here can help? Had to move a WP installed in test dir to main dir and will not login, giving DB errors at main page! What is fix for this? DB user/pwd combo has not changed so guessing is a "Salt" issue.

[20:21] * the name === notzopsi is now known as zopsi [21:50] floown: does one even exist? [21:50] floown: I hope not :-) [21:51] Walex: a windows ask me always the password for my "wifi" [21:53] I suppose, if I reinstall the plasmoid, the next time the windows ask me the password, it retain it [22:01] floown: that is not necesarily a plasmoid [22:01] floown: it is likely to be the KDE interface to NetworkManager [22:03] floown: it could be called "plasma-widget-networkmanagement" [22:04] floown: unless you are using WICD instead of NetworkManager. Anyhow the Ubuntu Wiki has some pages on both [22:04] Walex: it's a transitional package only, it is not installed [22:05] floown: on my Kubuntu that takes 1.4MB... [22:06] but I have 12.04 and I guess you have 14.04 where indeed it is a metapackage [22:09] floown: I looked at the reverse dependencies of 'network-manager' under 14.04 and there is nothing plausible there [22:09] floown: ah no I missed 'plasma-nm' [22:10] I am sorry to say that is the thing you are probably looking for.
