| darkangel | Is it easyer to setup a website server usin a Router or is it easyer to setup with out 1? | 00:19 |
| k2everest_ | Router? | 00:20 |
| darkangel | Modem | 00:20 |
| k2everest_ | Wich kind of router we are talking about? | 00:20 |
| darkangel | http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fhome.centurytel.net%2Fihd%2Fwestell_7500%2Fimages%2Fmodem_pics%2Fwestell7500_top.jpg&imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fquimetaren.blog.com%2F2014%2F05%2F29%2Fcenturylink-westell-7500-gateway%2F&h=2144&w=1604&tbnid=yEc5A7Iv4_ShnM%3A&zoom=1&docid=lQayHRAsODEOBM&ei=ejv1U9O8EY23ogS77IDABA&tbm=isch&client=ubuntu&ved=0CB8QMygBMAE&iact=rc&uact=3&dur=2672&page=1&start=0&ndsp=16 | 00:21 |
| k2everest_ | Oh yeah. I tought it. I think that u can yes. I cant see why not. | 00:21 |
| xangua | :-( | 00:21 |
| darkangel | Real pain i can figure every thing out how to Setup Apache server up i just cant figure out the router and what IP to use Ubuntu has many | 00:23 |
| k2everest_ | Explain better. Router always mask with 127.x.x q | 00:24 |
| k2everest_ | But your ip is not this ip. | 00:25 |
| k2everest_ | Check your ip . | 00:25 |
| darkangel | Well with my router it says my IP is 10.0.0.* but I dont thank thats the real 1 | 00:25 |
| k2everest_ | It is notb | 00:25 |
| tac | What is the /opt directory for? | 00:26 |
| k2everest_ | Check in some website google . Whats my ip | 00:26 |
| Glorfinde| | whatsmyip.com | 00:26 |
| tac | (or more generally, where can I go to read what the top-level directories are for in Ubuntu?) | 00:26 |
| Glorfinde| | or some such thing | 00:27 |
| darkangel | thanks... and /opt Directery as i can tell is for Default Ubuntu Games database | 00:27 |
| k2everest_ | :-p | 00:27 |
| darkangel | where ur games get installed to when u install from Ubuntu software center | 00:28 |
| Glorfinde| | if I logout on the gui will it logout my sessions on the ttys? | 00:28 |
| Busserl | tac: since there is no standard, each package might use them differntly. | 00:28 |
| tac | hm | 00:28 |
| TJ- | tac see https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/amd64/directory-tree.html | 00:29 |
| TJ- | Busserl: Indeed there is a standard; the FHS | 00:29 |

| Busserl | TJ-: I think that in practice it seems more like a convention, so YMMW. | 00:30 |
| Busserl | *YMMV :) | 00:30 |
| rww | !fhs | tac | 00:32 |
| ubottu | tac: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier | 00:32 |
| Busserl | TJ-: But Ubuntu guis probably look for "bad" practices in its repos as good as they can. | 00:32 |
| tac | tyty | 00:32 |
| Glorfinde| | !gui | 00:33 |
| ubottu | The graphical user interface (GUI) in Ubuntu is composed of many elements, including the !X server, a window manager, and a desktop environment such as !GNOME or !KDE (which themselves use the !GTK and !Qt toolkits respectively) | 00:33 |
| Glorfinde| | hmm | 00:33 |
| Busserl | *guys | 00:33 |
| Glorfinde| | Anyone? | 00:34 |
| darkangel | In the website hosting progress in the part it says <VirtualHost *:80> could u put Port 80 part as * and it will use any port? | 00:34 |
| blahlblah | good day all, I have a bit of a stupid problem that i made for myself, because ubuntu didnt have an alternate install cd i installed lubuntu, then installed ubuntu-desktop package, works fine except that now the gnome/unity software that needs to authenticate doesnt actually prompt to auth, and therfore doesnt work due to it not having permissions | 00:34 |
| blahlblah | any idea how to fix it? | 00:34 |
| TJ- | Glorfinde|: Do you mean the Virtual Terminals tty1-tty6 (available via Alt+Ctrl+F1-F6)- if so, then no, because the GUI runs usually on tty7 | 00:35 |
| Glorfinde| | ok, thanks | 00:35 |
| Glorfinde| | and yes that is what I meant :) | 00:35 |
| Guest22041 | darkangel: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/examples.html#default | 00:36 |
| peterrooney | darkangel: No. You must state which port the web server is to use. | 00:36 |
| TJ- | Glorfinde|: the X server is started on tty7 ... a separate login session | 00:36 |
| booh | Everytime I boot, I'm on console text... even if I do dpkg-reconfigure gdm and point to lightdm, same thing in /etc/X11/default... set to /usr/sbin/lightdm | 00:36 |
| Glorfinde| | oh, duh, that would be logical seeing how I have to login to each tty :facepalm: | 00:37 |
| darkangel | Ok thank u | 00:37 |
| blahlblah | :) | 00:37 |
| TJ- | booh: does the kernel command-line include the "text" parameter? Is the lightdm Upstart service enabled? | 00:38 |
| booh | Yes for "text" | 00:38 |
| booh | I just change it for splash quiet | 00:38 |
| TJ- | booh: "text" prevents lightdm from starting | 00:39 |
| kristenbb | can someone please help me to configure the video driver ? i can't log in... | 00:39 |
| TJ- | booh: In /etc/init/lightdm.conf it does: "for ARG in $(cat /proc/cmdline); do if [ "$ARG" = "text" ]; then plymouth quit || : stop" | 00:40 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, The mini is the alternative since 12.10. Can you explain "gnome/unity software that needs to authenticate doesnt actually prompt to auth" waht this exactly means? | 00:40 |
| Beldar | what* | 00:40 |
| blahlblah | sure | 00:40 |
| blahlblah | say i run software updater | 00:41 |
| blahlblah | or synaptic | 00:41 |
| blahlblah | or any other application that i launch from unity / gdm / graphic env | 00:41 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, All in one post please. | 00:41 |
| TJ- | blahblah: If the user is 'root' there'd be no sudo challenge before running programs. The same effect can happen if the 'sudoers' file has been configured to allow the 'sudoers' group, or the specific user, run commands without requiring password ("NOPASSWD") | 00:42 |
| blahlblah | normally when you run those applications, they produce a promp asking to authenticate so you can run with elevated privelidges, for some reason mine does not do that it just launches the programs. which creates an issue as the programs run with the assumption of elevation so they produce bizare outputs or dont output at all and just dont work. in a nutshel, i want to fix the policy or the policy daemon that is called / used by these programs so that they wi | 00:43 |
| blahlblah | i am a normal user :) | 00:43 |
| blahlblah | i am in the sudoers file, from cli everything works fine, the issue just seems to be with gdm / unity not realising that it needs to prompt me and launch those type of apps with elevation | 00:44 |
| blahlblah | one work around would be to run gdm as root - but thats tarded :D | 00:44 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Can you boot from the "recovery" console of grub's boot menu ? from there you may get to the desk top to change the graphics driver IF OEM driver is not installed . | 00:44 |
| harcoof | hey | 00:45 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, How familiar are you with linux or ubuntu? | 00:45 |
| harcoof | uhh I've written some kernel modules, but I wouldn't say I'm the most familiar | 00:45 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: yes i'm able to get a command line | 00:45 |
| blahlblah | i know enough to know that i dont know as much as a lot of people, which is why im asking here:) but I am familiar enough to normally be able to solve my own issues by googling, in this case i have not had success :( | 00:46 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: how to switch the driver to use back to nouveau ? | 00:46 |
| Beldar | harcoof, Look at the the nick I preface with, it is not yours | 00:46 |
| blahlblah | Beldar: i guess in context i would say im "familiar" | 00:46 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: What release ? 14.04 has some additional tools for graphics . | 00:46 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: i had taken the 'proprietary, tested' driver version, but it prevented me from logging in | 00:46 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: the latestt | 00:47 |
| darkangel | if 1 has around 500k files in a website and a fast computer would it make the website slow for havin soo much files in it | 00:47 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, You should not be running in root nor needing it for any more than updates and be using sudo there | 00:47 |
| harcoof | LUSERS | 00:47 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Try, reboot to grub, recovery kernel -> enable networking -> "resume normal boot" -> login -> desktop ->>> Additional Drivers and select the open source driver . | 00:48 |
| paulo | Ola | 00:49 |
| paulo | boa noite | 00:49 |
| paulo | qual o canal do ubuntu brasil? | 00:49 |
| Beldar | !br | paulo | 00:49 |
| ubottu | paulo: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. | 00:49 |
| blahlblah | sorry i might not have explained my issue properly Beldar - i crosgraded from lubuntu to ubuntu desktop using the ubuntu-desktop package, the resultant ubunutu desktop environment does not prompt my normal user to elevate privelidges when it runs an application that would require it such as synaptic or software center. the result of this is that those apps cannot install software as they are running as me without elevation. i am in the sudoers file and i am | 00:50 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: is it possible to do that from a command line ? | 00:50 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, Have you modified visudo? | 00:50 |
| blahlblah | Beldar: no, and the issue is not to do with os permissions | 00:51 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, Did you make a no password change to the sudors file? | 00:51 |
| blahlblah | or the config in the sudoers file | 00:51 |
| blahlblah | and no i did not | 00:51 |
| blahlblah | from the cli, if i do something that requires elevation, it rejects me, unless i do it via sudo. | 00:52 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, If you are running with no admin prompts for apps or commands that should than somehow it got changed. | 00:52 |
| blahlblah | when i do something from the gui, it does not prompt to elevate, and therefore cannot make changes | 00:52 |
| ibrahim | hello | 00:52 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, Are you running from a rooted cli? | 00:52 |
| blahlblah | nope | 00:52 |
| blahlblah | i am a normal user | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | who has sudo privs | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | but only when i use sudo | 00:53 |
| kristenbb | is it possible to set the default video driver from command line ? | 00:53 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, Than you are making no sense. | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | the gui is launching and i log in as myself | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | exactly | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | i thought i had explained myself | 00:53 |
| Beldar | you not the OS | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | sorry i dont know how better to explain it | 00:53 |
| blahlblah | :( | 00:53 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Yeah, gimme a bit to hint up the commands .. looking . | 00:53 |

| BAMFmemb | hi all | 00:54 |
| darkangel | done got this setup and i was wondering if any 1 can help me and test this out ppadomain.com is the site | 00:55 |
| booh | Now lightdm (I'm not sure it's the right one that boot!) execute at boot but I have 2 problems... 1) Error: malformed file press any key at grub boot... and system boot in low graphic... for the dm but inside gnome it's ok. | 00:55 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, What other linux installs have you used? | 00:55 |
| ibrahim | hello geeks my wireless card keep disconnecting and connecting here is lspci with driver http://pastie.org/9490341 | 00:55 |
| blahlblah | ok Beldar how about this- say i am sitting on the desktop, and i type in "ubuntu software center" into the launcher, and click the launcher. it launches the application, but does not prompt me to authenticate, and no changes i make are applied by the software. IF instead i manually launch the program from a terminal window under sudo, it works perfectly. | 00:55 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: The way sudo/gksudo works is each time you gain elevated privileges a timestamped file is updated... maybe that file isn't being removed when the sudo timeout expires? | 00:56 |
| ibrahim | hello geeks my wireless card keep disconnecting and connecting ubuntu 14.4 here is lspci with driver http://pastie.org/9490341 | 00:56 |
| booh | dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg don't fix it | 00:56 |
| blahlblah | TJ-: thanks ill look at tahat | 00:56 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, The software center does not prompt for the paasword till you actually install something. | 00:56 |
| insallblank | hello everyone, i was on earlier having problems with installing ubuntu and getting a blank screen, now i have it installed and can't load the install | 00:56 |
| Beldar | insallblank, "can't load the install" means? | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: What returns from terminal command -> ubuntu-drivers devices <- ? | 00:57 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: Try "sudo --reset-timestamp" | 00:57 |
| insallblank | getting a black screen when loading, loaded the live cd with the nomodeset paramiter and not sure how to apply that fix to the install | 00:57 |
| blahlblah | Beldar: well in MY case, when i actuially install something, the software center completes as if it had installed it but then refreshes and shows that it has not installed it. and does not prompt to elevate :) | 00:58 |
| Beldar | insallblank, The nomodeset link has a install use at the grub menu with an edit. | 00:58 |
| blahlblah | actually there is an interesting error that i can produce using software center... ill see if i can retreive it - after i try TJ's idea | 00:58 |
| ibrahim | hello geeks my wireless card keep disconnecting and connecting ubuntu 14.4 here is lspci with driver http://pastie.org/9490341 | 00:59 |
| Beldar | !nomodeset | insallblank boot it run tehe update/upgrade it may get fixed. | 00:59 |
| ubottu | insallblank boot it run tehe update/upgrade it may get fixed.: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 00:59 |
| insallblank | Beldar: i don't see a grub menu when ubuntu loads, i tried cntrl+alt+F1 and see a login prompt for a second and then the screen goes black and monitor shuts off | 00:59 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: it lists 5 drivers, among other things | 00:59 |
| Beldar | insallblank, Power on and start tapping the shift key. | 00:59 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Good; -> ubuntu-drivers list <- ? | 01:00 |
| insallblank | Beldar: i've tried that too, nothing happened with either shift key | 01:00 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: You may be better off using "sudo --remove-timestamp" actually | 01:00 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: lists 4 | 01:00 |
| Beldar | insallblank, From the last description if true may be more than a graphic driver issue, try the menu prompt and no modeset edit first. | 01:01 |
| insallblank | ubottu: i barely see a splash screen, right now i'm on the live cd , is there a parameter i can edit in the grub config file to change it to nomodeset boot until i can update the video drivers? | 01:01 |
| ubottu | insallblank: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:01 |
| Beldar | insallblank, Did you install from the desktop? Was the install error free? | 01:01 |
| ibrahim | hello geeks my wireless card keep disconnecting and connecting ubuntu 14.4 here is lspci with driver http://pastie.org/9490341 | 01:02 |
| Beldar | !patience | ibrahim | 01:02 |
| ubottu | ibrahim: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 01:02 |
| insallblank | Beldar: i installed from the live cd's desktop, no errors during or after the install | 01:02 |
| Beldar | insallblank, Had you checked the md5sum on the iso and install medium? Is this a dual boot? | 01:03 |
| Beldar | insallblank, Ubuntu wont fit on a cd, is that what you used? | 01:03 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: to be more precise, it lists 4 nvidia drivers. The first command showed the same 4, plus the nouveau driver. And just to be clear, I'm asking about switching to a new driver because the current one (the recommended, tested one) doesn't seem to work for me - the session doesn't start | 01:04 |
| insallblank | Beldar: no this is a ubuntu only install, not dual boot, i checked and everything was fine with the sum and the disk i used to install | 01:04 |
| insallblank | Beldar: no it was a dvd, | 01:04 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Not sure now; to install the standard available proprietary video driver -> ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, I expect it to reconfigure, but I do not KNOW for sure. | 01:04 |
| koplin | any plans for unity to stop sucking? | 01:04 |
| koplin | like when I remove and reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 01:05 |
| koplin | why does it not werk | 01:05 |
| Beldar | insallblank, So you have as soon as you powered on tapped on the shift key continuously, through the bios splash? | 01:05 |
| insallblank | Beldar: yeah, no result... tapped it continuously until the screen turned off | 01:06 |
| Beldar | koplin, Why would we even answer you with biased opinions up front? | 01:06 |
| koplin | if I remove and reinstall a package, it should work | 01:06 |
| koplin | if it works in gentoo, and debian, and fedora, and mageia, and crux, and slackware, it should work the same in ubuntu | 01:07 |
| koplin | but alas, this is not the same | 01:07 |
| koplin | thus I inquire here' | 01:07 |
| Beldar | insallblank, Not sure here, I would check the HD from the disks app top right corner smartcheck and if good try another install. Might be an issue I don't know about really. | 01:07 |
| Beldar | live enviroment^^^^^^^^ | 01:07 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: so i did just that, what now ? | 01:08 |
| insallblank | Beldar: i can try again and see if it will work, i'll do a smartcheck before i restart... i might have a different nick on here but it will be install** | 01:08 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: i rebooted but it's still not working. i still get an error window mentioning 'running in low graphics mode' | 01:10 |
| darkangel | Is this website work i thank i got it this time ppadomain.com | 01:10 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Shucks! .. All I know now to do, isd to boot through recovery console with netwrking enabled to the desk top and access "Additional Drivers" from there. | 01:12 |
| Bashing-om | isd/is* | 01:12 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: ok so please guide me through it. the grub menu doesn't show | 01:13 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Reboot, and s soon as the bios screen clears ( non UEFI system ) depress and hold the right shift key -> grub boot menu . | 01:14 |
| blahlblah | TJ-: did not fix it, the error that is produced for example when i use software center to install something shows "software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed:('system-bus-name',{'name':':1.73'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages | 01:16 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: does not seem to work, i did it 3 times already | 01:16 |
| blahlblah | also Beldar :) | 01:16 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: UEFI ? try: when bios screen clears depress the escape key . | 01:17 |
| blahlblah | i suspect theres a dependent package missing from ubuntu-desktop that is installed in the standard install but is not installed by lubuntu | 01:18 |
| blahlblah | or a service that is not configured - but i dont know how to configure said service :D hence my boggle hahaha | 01:18 |
| blahlblah | Beldar / TJ- : perhaps there is a flag i can toggle that tells it to auth? maby that flag is set to not auth? | 01:19 |
| blahlblah | if so would you know where /how to do that ? | 01:20 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: well with the esc key pressed the output was somewhat different (kinda like i could see the output messages going), but it was not a grub menu, and it brought me in the end to the same error message | 01:20 |
| Beldar | blahlblah, This is beyond me. ;) | 01:20 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: That looks like the PolicyKit Authentication Agent isn't being started in the session | 01:21 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: OK. try: reboot, and as soon as the bios screen is going to clear, repeated depress/release the right shift key ?? | 01:21 |
| blahlblah | any suggestions on how i can resolve that ? :) | 01:21 |
| blahlblah | TJ-: i found a previous way to start it but the service has changed since that way worked, so now i dont know how to tell it to start | 01:22 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: still the same. | 01:23 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: See bug 1045186 | 01:23 |

| booh | When I boot and a network cable isn't connected, it takes a while before booting resume... it waits for network. But... on this computer, I use wifi and wifi is connecting after entering in GUI session. Is there a way to make wifi up and running before entering in gnome session and bypass delay of absent network on nic ? | 01:23 |

| kristenbb | Bashing-om: the esc with repeated strokes | 01:28 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: so it now asks a recovery menu, which option to take? | 01:30 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: "with networking" -> then "resume normal boot" . | 01:30 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: i'm a bit lost, i just chose 'networking', then it asked "continuing will remount / in rw and mount all /etc/fstab, do you wish to continue", so i pressed yes, and now it seems stuck | 01:33 |

| kristenbb | Bashing-om: i rebooted and i'm at the same spot again, this time i'd like to do it right. it states : "recovery menu (filesystem state: read only).

What should I do now ? | 01:36 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: network ( as we have to have networking to download the graphics driver ). | 01:38 |

| TJ- | kristenbb: And the LAN provides a DHCP service so the PC can get an IP address automatically? | 01:39 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: so just 'network' and 'ok' ? then it asks the same question as before (it will remount in rw, and mount all /etc/fstab, continue?), should I proceed with 'ok' ? | 01:39 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Yes .. the system must be in r/w to change that driver . | 01:40 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: the lan provides a dhcp service but this computer is set up to a static ip | 01:40 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: Yes, let it proceed with the remount read/write... otherwise it can't write out the network status | 01:40 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: :) | 01:41 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: well then i'm stuck, just last before. oh it seems trying to run fsck, maybe that's why it takes a long time ? but why does it do that ?! | 01:41 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: That 'should' be OK then; the network should be configured according to '/etc/network/interfaces' | 01:41 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: System was left in an inconsistent state ? let it run ! | 01:41 |
| arekoner | hey anyone here anygood with the chmod command | 01:42 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: Ahhhh... yes, for a remount there will sometimes be an file-system check | 01:42 |
| Bashing-om | !ask arekoner | 01:43 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: Bashing-om: well then i'm afraid i will end up with the same error message, because when i was stuck here before, i had just pressed ctrl c and it brought me to the same error | 01:43 |
| Bashing-om | !ask | arekoner | 01:43 |
| ubottu | arekoner: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 01:43 |
| arekoner | need to modify folder /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/ so i can write to files under it | 01:44 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: Maybe best at this time to invoke a file system check and let it check things out ? | 01:44 |

| arekoner | i have been trying to figure out chmod | 01:44 |
| arekoner | but to no avail | 01:44 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: yes sure i'm letting it finish, from the looks of it it will be very long. but it doubt this (fsck) will solve my driver issue | 01:45 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: OHHH, not a good thing to change permissions on a system file ! .. what is the underlieing reasoning ? | 01:45 |
| arekoner | i know its not a good idea... when i get done doing what i need to i will unmodify | 01:46 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: We got to let the system do what it has to in order to protect it's self .. We will get there. patience . | 01:46 |
| Corvette | My laptop is doing the OTA upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04, but is it better to do a fresh install? | 01:47 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: ok i'll test u when it's finished, probably one hour or two at this rate | 01:47 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: It is all on you, do not cry when ... but to change a file -> sudo chmod 777 <name-of-file> .. read write execute to everyone ( not a good thing to do !). | 01:48 |
| arekoner | cool gimme a sec bashing-om when i get ndone will u give me command to bring it back to stock | 01:49 |
| === bblindy_ is now known as bblinder | ||
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: There is a serios [roblem then - somewhere - a normal file system check is but a few seconds ( journaled file systems rule ) . | 01:50 |
| TJ- | arekoner: You'll need to record the current permissions on the file in order to put them back later | 01:50 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: best note now what the permissions are - I may not have that file on my system ( non standard) . | 01:50 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: no it's just that it's not even at the system drive just yet, it's scanning all my drives, which takes a long time | 01:51 |

| Beldar | Corvette, Bette is an opinion. | 01:51 |
| Beldar | Better* | 01:52 |
| arekoner | okay i didnt write permissions before i changed them... | 01:52 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: as a matter of fact it's not even passed the first partition of the first drive just yet! it really seems to be stuck. | 01:52 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: raid ? on top of UEFI .. I am in a learning mode here ! | 01:52 |
| arekoner | and now i cant access the folder at all | 01:52 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: no, not raid, just data drives | 01:52 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: ntfs and such | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | kristenbb: ??? what in the world would posess fsck to even look at a data drive ? | 01:53 |
| Beldar | Corvette, What is best is being backed up no matter what you do, | 01:53 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: how would i know ? | 01:53 |
| booh | If I configure my wifi in network/interaces and later my wifi router is rebooting for example... is the wlan0 dhcp will reconnect itself or only the first time the file is read? | 01:53 |
| booh | I mean at boot time? | 01:54 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: it really seems stuck though | 01:54 |
| kristenbb | there has been no output in the last 15 minutes | 01:54 |
| arekoner | Bashing-om: does 777 give me full read write overwite permissions | 01:55 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: It sounds as though that system has deeper problems than you realised | 01:55 |
| Corvette | Beldar meaning let it do the ota | 01:55 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: When we practice to decieve the operating sytem.. OK, what is the exact file (directory ?) location, and what exact command did you employ ? | 01:55 |
| arekoner | just trying to replace a file | 01:55 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: i doubt it, it's just a fresh installation, the only thing that i changed was the driver to the "recommanded, tested" one (well not so well tested apparently :() | 01:56 |
| Beldar | Corvette, I never upgrade, however that is my choice, there is no better involved but for me personally. | 01:56 |
| arekoner | 'obviosly its write protected | 01:56 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | has anyone ever managed to get the rice video plugin with mupe64plus to work fullscreen? | 01:56 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: First a video issue, and now possibly drive issues... have you done a thorough memtest on the RAM? | 01:56 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: Yep .. r/r/x to all .. so where did you execute this chmod command ? | 01:56 |
| arekoner | sudo chmod 777 /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/winewrapper.exe.so | 01:57 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: i am 100% sure it's only video related | 01:57 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: Unless the file-systems being checked are abnormally large, they must have a lot of errors for the fsck to be taking this long | 01:58 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: TJ-: i'm sorry i got borred of waiting for 20 minutes for a single character to appear, i pressed ctrl+C. i'm back at the error window ("the system is running in low graphics mode") even in recovery mode | 01:58 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: do: -> ls -al /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/winewrapper.exe.so <- .. what results ? | 01:58 |
| Corvette | Beldar I usually don't upgrade either but I accidentally f*cked up some config files on this machine so I have to activate wifi via the terminal, which is a PITA. So I'm hoping the OTA upgrade will put the files back | 01:59 |
| arekoner | start with sudo chmod or diff command | 01:59 |
| danileigh79 | Corvette: It's not a broadcom b43 is it? | 01:59 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: i'll be sure to do a thorough fsck once this video driver issue is resolved then, and try to understand why it took so long in recovery mode. but now i'd like to fix the video issue, please. i can't log in, it's quite frustating. | 01:59 |
| Beldar | Corvette, No swearing, and never upgrade a non working/broken OS. | 01:59 |
| arekoner | -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 232780 Mar 18 16:26 /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/winewrapper.exe.so | 01:59 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: nope .. just flat out only -> ls -al /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/winewrapper.exe.so ......... | 02:00 |
| arekoner | -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 232780 Mar 18 16:26 /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine/winewrapper.exe.so | 02:00 |
| kristenbb | Bashing-om: so what was the whole point of using the recovery mode ? was it supposed not to use the proprietary driver in that mode ? | 02:01 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: If there's doubt about an fsck that can't complete, resolve that *first*. Anything else will likely make matters much worse. Right now we can't be sure any issues aren't caused by corruption | 02:01 |
| Corvette | Beldar nooo it's not a broadcom b43 I know the nightmares with that | 02:01 |
| Corvette | it's an onboard intel chip | 02:01 |
| danileigh79 | Corvette: Broadcom B43 wifi apapters are notorious for not working with bundled wifi drivers | 02:01 |
| arekoner | any ideas bashing-om | 02:02 |
| Beldar | Corvette, Never said it was and this is a wasted conversation. | 02:02 |
| Beldar | NO real details and your going to do what you want with no thinking | 02:02 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: Thin'n ( root still owns that file ) . | 02:02 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: it's a *fresh* install. the second one, as a matter of fact, still with the same video issue. i can do a third fresh install, and do fsck *before* trying to switch to the proprietary driver if you really want me to, but i can assure you my problem is video related | 02:03 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: Did the network come up? go to a root shell and find out. I think Bashing-om's intention was to use the shell to remove or reinstall the video drivers, which would require network access. | 02:04 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: when i get to the error, i can go to a TTY of my choice, so i get a command line. the networking does come up even when not in recovery mode, which apparently has no use at all | 02:05 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: how can I remove or reinstall the video drivers ? ie switch back to nouveau ? | 02:06 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: (from command line) | 02:07 |
| arekoner | bashing-om.... when addring -r to chmod wont it make it recursive | 02:07 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: In recovery mode network is not started unless we ask for it, which is what Bashing-om was getting you to do. With that enabled, it is then possible at the root shell to remove/install packages | 02:07 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: Which driver is currently installed, do you know? | 02:07 |
| kristenbb | arekoner: -R | 02:07 |
| arekoner | where does -R go kristen | 02:08 |
| kristenbb | arekoner: in the same place as -r would, it's just that it's -R | 02:09 |
| arekoner | so sudo chmod -R 777 /opt/cxoffice/lib/wine. | 02:10 |
| kristenbb | TJ-: but i can get to a command line with network access even without being in recovery mode, so i dont really see the point of going to recovery mode. it doesn't really matter though that i don't understand. the driver in use is a nvidia one, the recommended, tested one. would you like the number ? | 02:10 |
| kristenbb | arekoner: yep | 02:10 |
| Flannel | arekoner: You probably don't want to do that. In general, if you're having to chmod recursively, you're attacking a problem the wrong way. | 02:10 |
| blahlblah | TJ-: fixed it | 02:11 |
| TJ- | kristenbb: "dpkg -l 'nvidia*' " should show which package needs removing | 02:11 |
| TJ- | blahlblah: well done :) | 02:11 |
| Big_Mac | Hello? | 02:11 |
| blahlblah | tahnks for your help - you pointed me in the right direction :D | 02:11 |

| arekoner | no how to change all those files back to read only | 02:12 |
| Beldar | Big_Mac, Hello's not needed this is support state an issue if you have one. | 02:12 |
| arekoner | kristenbb do u know how to make them readonly | 02:13 |
| Bashing-om | arekoner: Yeah NOT at all what to do with system directories, these access are set for a reason .. you want a real borked up system ? // OK what is it that you need to do in "winewrapper.exe.so" ? | 02:13 |
| arekoner | its already done | 02:13 |

| ahklerner | i have upgraded xubuntu and i have no audio (i think it worked before but i am not positive) i downloaded the pavucontrol and only "Dummy Output" is showing for output device. i am not sure where to start getting it recognized | 02:35 |
| popl | ahklerner: xubuntu is not ubuntu | 02:36 |
| popl | ahklerner: maybe try #xubuntu | 02:37 |
| Beldar | popl, WE do xubuntu here. | 02:37 |
| somsip | popl: it's supported here as an official flavor | 02:37 |
| popl | oh, ok | 02:37 |
| ahklerner | well i am glad to here this channel also supports it as there are 122 people in #xubuntu and noone is awake, 1500 in here hopefully someone is bored and can assist me | 02:39 |

| arnold0kang | hi all | 02:39 |
| arnold0kang | hi all | 02:39 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: This should get you started: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 02:39 |
| mjayk | ahklerner: what audio device are you using ? i.e. what type of output | 02:40 |
| ahklerner | it is a laptop, i am wanting to be able to hear audio from the built in speakers, and use the volume wheel on the front. i do not care if headphone or mic port work | 02:41 |
| ObrienDave | popl, seriously? | 02:42 |
| kostkon | ahklerner, output of: aplay -l | 02:42 |
| ahklerner | kostkon: http://pastebin.com/t3Lyhpb8 | 02:44 |
| kostkon | ahklerner, ok. try this: kill pulseaudio with: pulseaudio -k, then open your home folder and delete the hidden folder .pulse there should be a way to view hidden files in xubuntu's file manager. After doing that, start pulseaudio again with: pulseaudio -D | 02:45 |
| Abhijit | lshw -C network do not show wireless interface. wifi is not working. how can i troubleshoot it? | 02:48 |
| ahklerner | there is not a folder .pulse in my home | 02:49 |
| kostkon | ahklerner, it's hidden | 02:50 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: kostkon It's probably a codec issue. Does this report the realtek driver loaded: "lsmod | grep snd_hda_codec_realtek" ? | 02:53 |
| ahklerner | http://pastebin.com/yj3N5T4g | 02:53 |
| kostkon | ahklerner, yeah, sorry, that folder probably is now in .config | 02:54 |
| linman32 | hi. using ubuntu and i am not able to start a terminal. or open up tabs at top of screen for any application | 02:54 |

| popl | ObrienDave: What do you mean? | 02:55 |
| ahklerner | TJ- http://pastebin.com/yp4YKY5g | 02:56 |
| ahklerner | kostkon: indeed | 02:56 |
| ObrienDave | popl> ahklerner: xubuntu is not ubuntu | 02:56 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: do this then reboot: "echo -e "alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel\noptions snd-hda-codec-realtek index=-2" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf " | 02:57 |
| ObrienDave | *must not feed trolls* | 02:57 |
| linman32 | has anyone seen this problem? i tried opening word application and it almost crashed | 02:58 |
| popl | I'm not trolling. | 02:58 |
| ahklerner | TJ-: ok | 02:58 |
| popl | I seriously thought xubuntu wasn't supported here. | 02:58 |
| popl | Maybe you could not assume that everyone is trying to be a dick, ObrienDave. :P I *did* ask alis about a xubuntu channel to try to help ahklerner out. | 02:59 |
| popl | I don't think someone who was trolling would have done that. | 02:59 |
| linman32 | someone gave advice of ctrl+alt+f2, then "killall -u [username] gnome session" | 02:59 |
| linman32 | but when i enter the password, it always says it is wrong | 03:00 |
| linman32 | i think the gnome session is crashing. is there a way of fixing it? | 03:02 |
| wafflejock | linman32: is this a fresh install or was working and is now failing? | 03:03 |
| linman32 | i think it has been happening since i upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 | 03:04 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: it typically happens after about 10 lock screens. then it starts to fail | 03:06 |
| ahklerner | TJ-: now "Built in analog stereo" shows in the pavucontrol so i will check and see if audio works | 03:06 |
| ahklerner | ok now i do have audio! | 03:06 |
| superman098 | hi all | 03:07 |
| wafflejock | linman32: you using Gnome Ubuntu? | 03:07 |
| ahklerner | now what do i need to do to get the volume control wheel to work? | 03:07 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: i'm not sure | 03:07 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: Great :) | 03:07 |
| kristenbb | can I please get some help to install ubuntu with a nvidia card ? it's the third install that i'm doing and i keep getting a black screen or an error message before the login screen comes in | 03:07 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: I'm not sure, it depends on how it interfaces to the system - whether special input drives are needed, etc. | 03:08 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: what graphics card / install type / hardware are you using | 03:09 |
| superman098 | i want to revive my old pc at home who runned with AMD Duron with 128Mb ram? is any distribution of ubuntu for very2 old PC? there is much another distros but i think ubuntu is the best. Hmmm so which environtment i could use? | 03:09 |
| wafflejock | linman32: if you have the Unity interface or just downloaded from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/ then you don't have Ubuntu Gnome http://ubuntugnome.org/ | 03:09 |
| mjayk_ | superman098: look into xubuntu or mate ubuntu remix | 03:09 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: nvidia / ubuntu 14.04 | 03:09 |
| superman098 | ok i would find info about it first | 03:09 |
| wafflejock | ^ superman098 agree regular Unity is pretty heavy for an older machine | 03:10 |
| Stanley00 | superman098: ...or lubuntu :) | 03:10 |
| wafflejock | Xubuntu is lightweight | 03:10 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: desktop ? | 03:10 |
| superman098 | lubuntu would runnning with at least 256Mb minimum ram | 03:10 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: and what type of nvidia card | 03:10 |
| kristenbb | desktop, gtx 680 | 03:11 |
| wafflejock | ahklerner: what kind of volume wheel are you talking about exactly? | 03:11 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: i think i have unity interface. but i see gnome proccesses running in background | 03:11 |
| xangua | mjayk_: superman098 lubuntu would be fit better with 128 RAM | 03:11 |
| wafflejock | linman32: yeah ubuntu before 12.04 I think was Gnome by default so there's probably some reminants in the Unity version too just trying to understand your situation better | 03:11 |
| Stanley00 | superman098: hmm... I didn't know that. I've just test lxde on other distro and it took 128mb of ram. | 03:12 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: and what happens can you install the system when does the backscreen occur | 03:12 |
| wafflejock | linman32: so as is the system works fine but only after you hit the lock screen a few times then things in the UI start breaking? | 03:12 |
| mjayk_ | xangua: ok thanks ive never used lubuntu, good to know | 03:12 |
| Stanley00 | superman098: and xfce about 150MB :D | 03:12 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: yeah pretty much | 03:13 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: it occurs before the login screen, after i tried to use the proprietary recommended, tested version | 03:13 |
| superman098 | now for ubuntu 14.04 xubuntu minimum ram 512 MB | 03:13 |
| superman098 | :D | 03:13 |
| superman098 | i just want made some cool experiment with my old pc | 03:13 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: have you tried going back to the old drivers then | 03:13 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: it always starts failing after i login after i lock screen. never in middle of session | 03:13 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: unsuccessfully tried to uninstall all nvidia packages | 03:14 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: http://askubuntu.com/questions/450046/black-screen-with-nvidia-drivers-on-ubuntu have a look there | 03:14 |
| Blaksmith | Hi there.. got a weird issue.. was running 12.04, and upgraded to 14.04 (so far, BIG MISTAKE, as crap is not working as it used to, and not happy, but I also can not do a fresh install at this time), but I was using alacarte to update my menu, added in an item or two, then I was moving them up the list to where I wanted ... I hit the "Move Up" button too fast, and got a popup window about a file not there, so, I kept moving the item up | 03:14 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: really just after a lockscreen. because one of the monitors won't let me login is start. | 03:14 |
| Stanley00 | superman098: well, did you use arch before? arch with lxde only take 128MB, and if you want something else, try tiling wm only, you can save 20-40MB RAM | 03:14 |
| wafflejock | linman32: there's some related posts here about lightdm failing which I'm pretty sure is the program used for the lock screen now http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2214421 | 03:14 |
| Blaksmith | now, when I hit my "Applications Menu", I have NO menu at all... | 03:15 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: i have. i even had a look there, to no help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen | 03:15 |
| Zenof | Name: Raymond D Albers (aka Ray D Albers) / Age: 46 / DOB: 1968/05/29 / SSN: 497-88-1819 | Credit report - http://rghost.net/57578827 / Phone Number: 636-936-8896 or (636) 441-1637 / Current Address: 958 S Brampton DR / City: Saint Charles / State: MO / Zip: 63304 | 03:15 |
| Blaksmith | I can load up alacarte, or menulibre, and i can see the menus just fine though | 03:15 |
| wafflejock | linman32: are you using an ATI/AMD graphics chipset/card too? | 03:15 |
| Blaksmith | but I just can not get any kind of pull-down menu | 03:15 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: no. think it is intel i5 based | 03:16 |
| mjayk_ | yea i dont think that link is relevant kristenbb its a driver issue | 03:16 |
| Blaksmith | anyone know how I can get my menu back to being active when I click "Application Menu" ? | 03:16 |

| Bashing-om | superman098: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems#XFCE , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall . | 03:17 |
| wafflejock | linman32: that's the main CPU/processor curious about the graphics but might be Intel graphics chipset too you can do | 03:17 |
| wafflejock | lspci | grep VGA | 03:17 |
| superman098 | Stanley00 : i never use arch, but my priority is ubuntu... but if there is not possible... another distro it doesn't matter | 03:17 |
| subsonic | Anybody have any recommendations on how to update an apache config acrtoss multiple servers | 03:18 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 03:18 |
| Stanley00 | superman098: well, you can try looking at links Bashing-om's just post first :3 | 03:18 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: that thread you sent me, looks exactly like my problem | 03:18 |
| VectorX | im on ubuntu, i want to know how i can run a particular application and tell it to use a specific network interface or device ? | 03:18 |
| VectorX | on cli | 03:18 |
| wafflejock | linman32: k yeah so you've got an intel chipset not the same as what they're complaining about in that forum I don't think, might be related | 03:19 |
| wafflejock | linman32: not sure where to point you here though I've got Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 right now and don't have any lock screen issues so hard to say | 03:19 |
| Bashing-om | superman098: I install 'buntu on many old pc's .. with 128mb of ram .. minimum install, xfce for the DE . | 03:20 |
| wafflejock | linman32: you can try to see if you have errors in the Xorg log that help at all, this will show 5 lines before and after and the line numbers where errors popped up in Xorg | 03:20 |
| wafflejock | cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE -n -A5 -B5 | 03:20 |
| TJ- | ahklerner: I've just found a photo of the M115 motherboard; the volume wheel is a simple variable resistor so it will operate on the analogue electronics side, nothing needed from the software point of view | 03:21 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: update your apache configs and restart apache. You can ftp/sftp those file to each server. I'm assuming they will be the same, correct? | 03:21 |
| wafflejock | linman32: I actually have a very similar graphics chipset too but like I said different OS install 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 03:21 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: don't see errors. trying to "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" | 03:22 |
| subsonic | Jeffrey_f: I was hoping not to have to ftp | 03:22 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: someone mentioned it in thread | 03:22 |
| wafflejock | linman32: well that will get you a whole different Desktop Environment | 03:22 |
| subsonic | I could probably write a script | 03:22 |
| wafflejock | linman32: and I think it will still use lightdm for the login/lock screen but suppose it's worth a shot if you're just tinkering | 03:23 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: what does that mean? | 03:23 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: well. not trying to tinker | 03:23 |
| wafflejock | linman32: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/desktop_environment#List_of_desktop_environments | 03:23 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: are the configs going to be consistent?? | 03:24 |
| wafflejock | linman32: if you install "xubuntu-desktop" it installs XFCE which is a whole different desktop (different launcher and desktop and set of tools) | 03:24 |
| subsonic | Jeffrey_f: yes | 03:24 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: guess what i'm doing is in vain haha | 03:25 |
| wafflejock | linman32: here's a little slideshow showing what they look like http://www.zdnet.com/six-clicks-the-best-linux-desktop-environments-7000032008/#photo | 03:25 |
| arekoner | anyone here know how to get genymotion to install | 03:25 |
| wafflejock | linman32: yeah it's hard to find what's going wrong with things like this sometimes... if you want to get to the bottom of it though I would look more into lightdm debugging or logging information to see what's going on | 03:25 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: easiest edit the config(s), move them to the servers somehow and restart apache. | 03:25 |
| subsonic | Jeffrey_f yeah :) was just hoping to automate the process a little | 03:26 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: for a one time thing? | 03:27 |
| linman32 | wafflejock: ok thanks. i will see how this goes. will probably be back actively actively asking questions in a few days | 03:27 |
| wafflejock | subsonic: you can use a bash script and scp | 03:27 |
| arekoner | anyone here know how to get genymotion to install | 03:27 |
| TJ- | subsonic: use a configuration/orchestration tool, there's plenty around Puppet, Chef, ansible, salt, etc. etc. | 03:27 |
| arekoner | its a .bin file | 03:28 |
| wafflejock | subsonic: I also use Jenkins CI for deploying builds based on git commits, that might be an option if you've got some CI setup | 03:28 |
| VinnyAtaide | hello I have an issue with my tmux colors, it shows 256 colors on tput colors but when I run a script that shows those colors it appears some are equal | 03:28 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: i'm at the last step, nvidia-xconfig, which returns an error message | 03:29 |
| VinnyAtaide | i'm using terminator | 03:29 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: WARNING: Unable to locate/open X configuration file. New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' | 03:29 |
| superman098 | Thx all, i would use arch or damn small linux | 03:29 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: thats just telling you that it has generated an xorg.conf which is good as it is ment to do that, its also telling you that you didnt have one before | 03:29 |
| mjayk_ | if you are coming from a system that was ment to have drivers before hand that could have been your problem | 03:30 |
| mjayk_ | you didnt do that step before or that step didnt work before | 03:30 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: you can probably script this somehow to execute commands on each server. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18502945/how-to-execute-a-remote-command-over-ssh-with-arguments | 03:30 |
| wjb | hey, is anyone familiar with NTFS write issues which occur in a linux guest / windows host environment? | 03:30 |
| wafflejock | superman098: yea arch is one of the most minimal but not great for beginners | 03:31 |
| VinnyAtaide | hello can anyone help me through? | 03:31 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: well in any case, i restarted, andd the problem is still there | 03:31 |
| subsonic | Jeffrey_f, wafflejock, TJ-: Yeah, I've looked intp puppet/chef but then how do you update those configs on each of the servers | 03:31 |
| mjayk_ | kristenbb: no idea then | 03:31 |
| mjayk_ | gl | 03:31 |
| subsonic | it's OK for now :) | 03:31 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: :( | 03:31 |
| wjb | I have a mint VM on windows 8.1, and when torrenting, writes fail, causing qbittorrent to re-dl files multiple times. Sometimes writes succeed; sometimes they don't | 03:32 |
| arekoner | 'anyone here know how to get genymotion to install | 03:32 |
| kristenbb | mjayk_: thanks for trying | 03:32 |
| subsonic | I'm spending more time looking on how to automate than do what Jeffrey_f said and just update each server :) | 03:32 |
| wafflejock | subsonic: well with Jenkins it has a git plugin that watches a repo for changes then on changes you can trigger a script on the server to do whatever | 03:32 |
| TJ- | subsonic: The point of such tools is they do it for you, they ensure the managed servers are always correctly configured according to the 'recipe' you define | 03:32 |
| mjayk_ | nw's hope you get it fixed | 03:32 |
| kristenbb | can I please get some help to install ubuntu with a nvidia card ? it's the third install that i'm doing and i keep getting a black screen or an error message before the login screen comes in. | 03:32 |
| subsonic | wafflejock: yeah, I could possibly set up a git repo for server configs | 03:32 |
| wafflejock | subsonic: yeah automation is only good for things you'll repeat every week or something | 03:32 |
| wafflejock | for one offs it's always a losing battle | 03:33 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: script an sftp/ftp to each server and the remote command link I sent above to move the configs into place and again to restart apache | 03:33 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: have you tired put this on tmux.conf --> set -g default-terminal "screen-256color" | 03:33 |
| wafflejock | I use it for deploying all my code though cause I can avoid ftp this way and I don't have to fiddle with the server really | 03:33 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: *tried | 03:33 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: yes | 03:33 |
| arekoner | anyone here know how to get genymotion to install | 03:33 |
| neldogz | when creating a cron job to backup directories with rsync, can i have multiple lines separated by a space? Will the script process line per line? | 03:33 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: in 4 steps, send the config files to the servers, move the old config to .old on each server, move the new configs into place, restart apache | 03:34 |
| subsonic | yeah :) | 03:35 |
| subsonic | thanks guys! | 03:35 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: and make a tmux alias like that? --> TERM=xterm-256color tmux | 03:35 |
| neldogz | arekoner, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/genymotion-fast-easy-to-use-android-x86.html | 03:35 |
| wafflejock | subsonic: np remember to always keep the three lasws or robotics in mind when creating automation :P | 03:35 |
| wafflejock | laws* | 03:36 |
| Jeffrey_f | subsonic: any time | 03:36 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: let me check | 03:37 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: is that on .bashrc? | 03:37 |
| wafflejock | wjb: not sure what the issue is but have you considered just sharing some folders between the host OS and guest OS and torrenting in the host OS instead | 03:38 |
| arekoner | neldogz: that sites instruction arent working | 03:40 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: can be... just make export TERM=xterm-256color in someplace your user can start... bashrc or profile... etc... | 03:41 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: ok | 03:41 |
| arekoner | i shortened the filename for ease of use | 03:41 |
| VinnyAtaide | i didn't have that | 03:41 |
| wafflejock | neldogz: yeah if you are just asking if a .sh bash script file will execute line by line the answer is yes | 03:42 |
| neldogz | wafflejock, thank you | 03:42 |
| wafflejock | neldogz: np there's some minimal but okay docs on bash scripts here http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html | 03:42 |
| arekoner | neldogz | 03:43 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: I still have the same issue | 03:43 |
| wafflejock | I've always been into making batch files in windows and bash files in linux really helps for things I don't want to memorize then you can just put them all in a ~/scripts/ folder and add that to the path and use them anywhere | 03:44 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: read that --> http://tmux.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tmux/tmux/FAQ | 03:45 |
| VinnyAtaide | o00o: ok ty | 03:45 |
| neldogz | arekoner, whats not working | 03:45 |
| arekoner | sudo chmod +x /home/bmuff/downloads/geny.bin [sudo] password for bmuff: chmod: cannot access ‘/home/bmuff/downloads/geny.bin’: No such file or directory | 03:46 |
| nahtnam | Hey guys! I just got my new System 76 laptop! Are there any really good/important apps I need to download? | 03:46 |
| arekoner | neldogz: i shortened the filename for ease of use | 03:46 |
| somsip | VinnyAtaide: if this is the unknown terminal error, install terminfo-ncurses on the target machine | 03:46 |
| VinnyAtaide | somsip: no, i think it has to be with my .bashrc file, it's pretty big and hard to maintain right now | 03:47 |
| wafflejock | nahtnam: depends on your needs and what you like, if you use Pandora radio I use Pithos for that as a desktop app | 03:47 |
| wafflejock | nahtnam: probably better for #ubuntu-offtopic though since this chat is generally just support issues | 03:48 |
| nahtnam | wafflejock: Nah, I am getting Spotify! Anything else? | 03:48 |
| nahtnam | Oh kk | 03:48 |
| nahtnam | Sorry. Ill move my question there! :) | 03:48 |
| wafflejock | no worries have fun | 03:48 |
| somsip | VinnyAtaide: if you are connecting via ssh and trying to start/attach to a tmux session using urxvt and get the 'unknown terminal' error, installing terminfo-ncurses to fix it. If the issue is something else, fair enough | 03:48 |
| VinnyAtaide | somsip: nice thing I have it already installed dont remember when I did | 03:49 |
| somsip | VinnyAtaide: on the target machine... | 03:49 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: this one is nice too --> http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/118806/tmux-term-and-256-colours-support | 03:49 |
| VinnyAtaide | somsip: ok | 03:49 |
| arekoner | neldogs: i think thats an old guide or something | 03:49 |
| VinnyAtaide | o000O: Ubuntu box, Guake, tmux, Vim and I love the theme Solarized. | 03:50 |
| VinnyAtaide | o000O: this guy is my doppelganger | 03:50 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: in my lang we call that : petiadeira de puta... ;p | 03:51 |
| VinnyAtaide | o000O: dude i'm brazilian and I can understand some of these words | 03:52 |
| VinnyAtaide | o000O: hahaha | 03:52 |
| O00O | VinnyAtaide: but i love that to.. | 03:52 |
| arekoner | new user needs help Linux commands | 03:56 |
| VinnyAtaide | o000O: I can see it's a pretty common issue when I go to this link https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&site=&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1366&bih=673&q=vim+solarized+tmux&oq=vim+solarized+tmux&gs_l=img.3...1258.4396.0.4491.18.7.0.10.10.1.289.901.0j2j2.4.0....0...1ac.1.51.img..9.9.695.uyLXO05sIOc&gws_rd=ssl#imgdii=_ | 04:01 |

| arekoner | does anyone here use genymotion | 04:02 |
| tortib | Hello can someone help me with this issue with cacti I'm having? I have outlined the details here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/514072/blank-cacti-graphs | 04:02 |
| Enissay | is there any recommended link to install lamp on 14.04 | 04:03 |
| Enissay | ? | 04:03 |
| xangua | ! Lamp | 04:03 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 04:03 |
| Fall | Which MTA does Ubuntu come install with from fresh install? | 04:04 |
| rww | Fall: it doesn't. the usual recommendation for people looking for one is postfix | 04:04 |
| rww | ubottu: postfix | 04:04 |
| ubottu | postfix is the default !MTA and !MDA on Ubuntu. For help, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto - See also !MailServer | 04:04 |
| Fall | cool thanks. | 04:05 |
| Enissay | xangua, cool, thks <3 | 04:06 |
| arekoner | does anyone here use genymotion | 04:06 |
| nahtnam | Hey! I need a little help with keyboard shortcuts | 04:09 |
| nahtnam | I created one | 04:09 |
| Fall | Thanks, just had to configure to send to a smart host. | 04:09 |
| nahtnam | and the comand is right | 04:09 |
| nahtnam | but its not working | 04:09 |
| nahtnam | If I type the command in terminal, it works but it doesnt work as a keyboard shortcut | 04:09 |
| Abhijit | nahtnam, whats the command and whats the keyboard shortcut? | 04:10 |
| bmuff | anyone know anything about genymotion | 04:10 |
| nahtnam | Abhijit: bash ~/Documents/imgur/imgur.sh -l | 04:10 |
| Abhijit | no | 04:10 |
| nahtnam | imgur.sh allows me to select an area, and uploads it to imgur.com | 04:10 |
| bmuff | how about terminal commands | 04:11 |
| === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away | ||
| Abhijit | what is keyword bash is doing there? | 04:11 |
| === quem_ is now known as quem | ||
| nahtnam | Abhijit: To run it? | 04:12 |
| bmuff | i went to this page for instructions on how to install... i keep getting errorshttp://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/genymotion-fast-easy-to-use-android-x86.html | 04:12 |
| Abhijit | nahtnam, you just add #!/bin/bash to that .sh and do ~/Documentsn/imgur/imgur.sh | 04:12 |
| bmuff | can some one help me with terminal commands | 04:13 |
| kristenbb | can I get help to get a video driver working ? | 04:13 |
| * Abhijit guess we are not supposed to do !ask when its not crowded. let them keep asking if they can ask. | 04:14 | |
| nahtnam | Abhijit: Its still not working | 04:14 |
| somsip | bmuff: genymotion is beta and not supported. You need to get help on installing from them. If you ask your terminal commands questions you might get answers | 04:14 |
| Abhijit | nahtnam, what still not working? script, command or keyboard shortcut? | 04:14 |
| VinnyAtaide | well I couldn't resolve the issue so in the meantime I'm using gvim | 04:15 |
| nahtnam | Abhijit: Well, when I run the keyboard shortcut, nothing happens. If I run the command from terminal, it works... | 04:15 |
| Abhijit | nahtnam, whats the shortcut? | 04:15 |
| bmuff | just trying to get its installer to run.... does linux usually use a .bin file for exec | 04:15 |
| nahtnam | Abhijit: CTRL+SHIFT+1 (The 1 shows up as !) | 04:15 |
| Abhijit | :-o | 04:15 |
| Abhijit | nahtnam, just change in then? to some character a to Z instead of number? | 04:16 |
| somsip | bmuff: extensions make no difference. .bin is by convention only | 04:16 |
| nahtnam | Abhijit: CTRL+SHIFT+Z doesnt work as well | 04:16 |
| bmuff | what does this mean... it in the instructions | 04:17 |
| bmuff | chmod +x genymotion-2.1.0_x64.bin | 04:17 |
| bmuff | ./genymotion-2.1.0_x64.bin | 04:17 |
| bmuff | and this is what i get when i run it | 04:18 |
| bmuff | chmod +x /home/bmuff/downloads/geny.bin | 04:18 |
| bmuff | chmod: cannot access ‘/home/bmuff/downloads/geny.bin’: No such file or directory | 04:18 |
| apb1963 | so after a mindbending 12+ hours and reviewing no less than 15 or 20 how-tos and series of posts, I have my wireless connection working - sort of. I can ping the wlan0 interface (IP) from the host, and I can ping it's IP from the router. However, if I take the eth0 interface down, I'm unable to ping the Net. | 04:19 |
| bmuff | i renamed the file | 04:19 |
| somsip | bmuff: is the file there? is it really called geny.bin? | 04:19 |
| bmuff | yes | 04:19 |
| bmuff | i renamed it | 04:19 |
| bmuff | ease of use | 04:19 |
| somsip | bmuff: show the output of ls that shows the file is really there | 04:19 |
| bmuff | how | 04:20 |
| bmuff | ill paste | 04:20 |
| somsip | !paste | bmuff | 04:20 |

| somsip | bmuff: how do you know the file is there if you don't know the command to check it? | 04:21 |
| bmuff | cause i downloaded it there and when i go there in a file manager thats how i renamd it | 04:22 |
| TJ- | apb1963: Sounds like you don't have a default route set over the wlan0 interface, so when eth0 goes down there's no route to 0.0.0.0 | 04:22 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: it does, doesn't it. But... I do. | 04:22 |
| somsip | bmuff: downloads is usually Downloads (case sensitive). Try ls -la ~/Downloads | 04:23 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: give me a sec.. I'll pastebin it. | 04:23 |
| TJ- | apb1963: We usually have both interfaces configure a default route, but with different metrics (weightings). The wlan0 is the less-preferred interface in most instances so it gets a higher metric. Typically eth0 metric 10 and wlan0 metric 20 | 04:23 |
| bmuff | ill try that one moment | 04:23 |
| bmuff | no caps dosent affect whether it can see the file | 04:24 |
| bmuff | if my file was downloaded to the default downloads folder | 04:24 |
| bmuff | whats the address | 04:24 |
| TJ- | bmuff: Shouldn't it be "/home/bmuff/Downloads/geny.bin" (note the upper-case 'D') ? | 04:25 |
| bmuff | try that one mom | 04:25 |
| bmuff | seemed to work | 04:25 |
| bmuff | so what did that do | 04:25 |
| superman098 | hi bro, do you have a reference how to completely remove unity+gnome from ubuntu 14.04 Cz i want to get rid it and change to fluxbox to revive my old pc | 04:26 |
| tortib | Hello can someone help me with this issue with cacti I'm having? I have outlined the details here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/514072/blank-cacti-graphs | 04:26 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: I posted the same thing two different ways. http://pastebin.com/LYjGvdL9 | 04:27 |
| TJ- | apb1963: Are you sure that packets are routing out of wlan0? | 04:28 |
| TJ- | apb1963: "ping -nc 4 -I wlan0 192.168.01" | 04:28 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: thank you. I didn't know how to do that. | 04:29 |
| TJ- | apb1963: correct my typo :p | 04:29 |
| bmuff | tj your solution didnt error | 04:29 |
| bmuff | so what did we do | 04:29 |
| TJ- | bmuff: Used the correct path name, which has an upper-case 'D', not a lower-case 'd' | 04:30 |
| bmuff | but what does chmod-x /home/bmuff/Downloads/geny.bin do | 04:30 |
| TJ- | bmuff It changes the mode of the file to allow execution, by setting the bit that is referred to as 'x' | 04:31 |
| bmuff | so i should now try to execute it | 04:32 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: http://pastebin.com/P7vCWBJD | 04:32 |
| bmuff | tj u da man | 04:32 |
| TJ- | bmuff: if you do "ls -l /home/bmuff/Downloads/geny.bin" you'll see the result begins with some "rwxr-xr-x " indicators. Those indicate the permissions of the Owning User ('u'), Owning Group ('g'') and Others ('o') in groups of three flags: Read, Write, eXecute | 04:33 |
| TJ- | apb1963: OK, so wlan reaches the gateway. Now try pinging an Internet IP address/host to ensure it can reach (and receive replies) | 04:33 |
| apb1963 | PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) from 192.168.0.102 wlan0: 56(84) bytes of data. | 04:34 |
| apb1963 | 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_req=1 ttl=43 time=47.9 ms | 04:34 |
| bmuff | Tj u solved my prob..... u da man man | 04:34 |
| bmuff | thanx much | 04:34 |
| TJ- | apb1963: OK, so when eth0 goes down what is the remaining routing table, and will those same commands still work? | 04:36 |
| TJ- | apb1963: how do you 'down' eth0, what command ? | 04:37 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: I just answered that for ppping in the other channel :) | 04:37 |
| apb1963 | I think I used ifdown, but it's possible I did ifconfig .. don't remember. Been going back and forth. | 04:37 |
| apb1963 | My mind is uncomfortably numb :/ | 04:38 |
| TJ- | apb1963: Well, if you've configured the interfaces via the 'interfaces' file you can do "sudo ifdown eth0 && ip route ls && ping -nc 4 8.8.8.8" | 04:38 |
| apb1963 | I did | 04:38 |
| apb1963 | configure it that way | 04:39 |
| TJ- | apb1963: I'm wondering if you have IP connectivity but lose the DNS server... have you verified whether it is hostnames or IP addresses that become unreachable? | 04:39 |
| apb1963 | but if it doesn't work i'll have to reboot | 04:39 |
| nahtnam | Hello. My keyboard shortcuts are not working. The command I typed in the keyboad shortcut settings work in terminal but no with keyboad shortcuts. I am trying to run https://github.com/jomo/imgur-screenshot I think that Ubuntu isnt waiting for me to select the screen, and is instantly closing the bash script. Im not sure how to make it "wait" | 04:39 |
| apb1963 | ip addresses | 04:39 |
| TJ- | apb1963: You should only need to do "sudo ifup eth0" to restore the connection | 04:40 |
| apb1963 | yes.... should. | 04:40 |
| TJ- | apb1963: can you "pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces" ? | 04:40 |
| apb1963 | maybe I'll get lucky and it'll work this time :) | 04:40 |
| apb1963 | sure | 04:40 |
| apb1963 | hang on | 04:40 |
| klurbin | Hi, I just upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 and now when I have a ps4 controller plugged in it acts as a mouse. How can I disable this so that I can charge the PS4 controller while not using it as a mouse? | 04:41 |
| === tac is now known as tac-tics | ||
| === blabla is now known as PraX1Ne | ||
| Beldar | klurbin, Have you tried leaving it plugged in in suspend overnight? | 04:45 |
| klurbin | Beldar: I'm not sure what you mean? With the computer in suspend? | 04:46 |
| Beldar | yes | 04:46 |
| Beldar | standby seems to be a general consensus, I suspect ion windows klurbin | 04:46 |
| klurbin | I never suspend the machine. I plug the controller in to charge a lot. Today I was playing a game while it was plugged in. This worked fine on 12.04. I noticed my mouse started moving with the sticks while it was playing the game too | 04:47 |
| Beldar | klurbin, Suspend still powers the usb ports, I would try that. | 04:47 |
| klurbin | That's not really a solution though. I want to use the computer while using the game | 04:48 |
| TJ- | klurbin: probably all it needs is a custom udev rule creating to prevent the device being configured as an input device | 04:48 |
| klurbin | TJ-: thats more what I was thinking. I overwrote the change with do_release_upgrade, I just don't remember what I had set or where | 04:48 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: I had to doctor it up a bit for public consumption: http://pastebin.com/H02pESuU | 04:48 |
| TJ- | klurbin: custom udev rules would remain, and you'd find them in "/etc/udev/rules.d/" | 04:48 |
| TJ- | apb1963: The only thing there that I'd have expected would be a "dns-nameservers" entry for eth0 too, otherwise there'd be no DNS resolution if wlan0 isn't connected | 04:50 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: yeah I'm not sure why that works. I prolly changed something somewhere else months ago I've forgotten about. | 04:52 |
| TJ- | apb1963: try downing eth0 now and test whether wlan0 still has connectivity, and grab the "ip route ls | tee ~/route.txt" output to a file so you can pastebinit once the network is back - if it goes down. | 04:53 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: back | 05:06 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: pastebin coming up | 05:07 |

| ^BARrE|^ | wats a good dns server to install? | 05:08 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: I should perhaps mention that wicd is running | 05:09 |
| apb1963 | I should prolly uninstall it since it didn't really help | 05:09 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: new rule... don't click on wicd. In fact... I just removed it. Too easy to break the network with that thing. | 05:12 |
| shoerain | confound it, that's kind of dumb regarding having the OS X installer disappear after running | 05:12 |
| TJ- | apb1963: That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. Is Network Manager involved in any way? | 05:12 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: nope, removed it earlier | 05:13 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: not sure if you commented on my paste.... if you did, I didn't see it as I was briefly disconnected when I clicked on wicd. | 05:14 |
| TJ- | apb1963: No, still trying to make sense of it. Can you "tail -n 500 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit" ? | 05:15 |

| cfhowlett | gonzocheese, for what? | 05:31 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: this is the only thing I could find that might have relevance.... but it doesn't seem like it does: | 05:31 |
| apb1963 | 8406 Aug 20 22:04:35 asterisk kernel: [ 36.944014] eth0: no IPv6 routers present | 05:31 |

| makara | hi, I've got this weird problem. Sometimes, about 30% of the occassions I start my Lenovo B570 with 14.10, the mouse pointer is laggy. Using the touchpad, its fine. What's happening? | 05:31 |
| TJ- | apb1963: they're typical until the interfaces are brought up | 05:31 |
| cfhowlett | makara, 14.10 support only in #ubuntu+1 not here | 05:32 |
| makara | ag I mean 14.04 | 05:32 |
| TJ- | apb1963: I can't see how, you proved the wlan0 could ping outside the home network, you drop eth0, and wlan0 suddenly can't ping | 05:32 |
| cfhowlett | makara, if you don't want beta performance issues, install a released version of ubuntu | 05:32 |
| wafflejock | makara: possible USB issue? | 05:32 |
| TJ- | apb1963: and yet the routing table has the default route for wlan0 in there | 05:32 |
| apb1963 | so you see why i'm perplexed :/ | 05:33 |
| wafflejock | makara: tried various ports? | 05:33 |
| TJ- | apb1963: The only other thing I can think is if you've got some kind of firewall installed that blocks everything when eth0 goes down | 05:33 |
| apb1963 | umm | 05:33 |
| apb1963 | some kind of firewall like.... iptables maybe? | 05:33 |
| wafflejock | apb1963: that or ufw or shorewall or something | 05:33 |
| TJ- | apb1963: iptables is just a user-space controller for the kernel netfilters | 05:34 |
| apb1963 | I do in fact use iptables | 05:34 |
| makara | wafflejock: I should also mention that as of 14.04, shutdown, restart, sleep don't execute their final step of actually shutting down the machine etc | 05:34 |
| apb1963 | and I think you might have nailed it | 05:34 |
| apb1963 | but I should check before presenting you with the trophy cup | 05:34 |
| TJ- | apb1963: there could be scripts belonging to other firewall packages that are triggered in "/etc/network/ifdown.d/" and similar directories | 05:34 |
| makara | wafflejock: the pointer acts normally now - same usb | 05:35 |
| TJ- | makara: there's an issue with some PS/2 mouse-port drivers where the i8042 chip needs configuring differently | 05:36 |
| wafflejock | makara: nothing on screen when you do the shutdown command you just end up at a black screen or...? | 05:38 |
| apb1963 | TJ-: I've got a rule that accepts lo on the INPUT table.. but nothing for eth0... but I'm too tired to examine it. I'm sure the answer is here somewhere but I need sleep. | 05:38 |
| TJ- | apb1963: "sudo iptables-save | pastebinit" :) | 05:39 |
| apb1963 | can I message you with it? | 05:39 |
| TJ- | apb1963: sure | 05:41 |
| wjb | wafflejock: re: linux guest / windows host NTFS writes: Changes in windows 8 to the network stack, event timers, and interrupt handling, designed to improve power efficiency for mobile platforms, cause real-time audio and video dropouts when torrenting (especially with multiple simultaneous connections) | 05:42 |
| apb1963 | thank you | 05:42 |
| bobubtu | #ubuntu | 05:44 |
| wafflejock | wjb: hmm strange... I have Win 8 in a VM on a Linux Host, it's not the best thing ever but it seems to work fine that way, so the problem is with the other way around? | 05:44 |
| wafflejock | I actually had that setup too for a little bit but then just did dual boot and then switched to Linux for the main and VM for Windows | 05:44 |
| makara | TJ-: should that affect USB mice?? | 05:45 |
| wjb | I think the problem has to do with some windows process locking the shared directory when qbittorrent attempts to flush to disc | 05:45 |
| makara | wafflejock: i see the ubuntu name and progress bar, which then just stops, so I hold down the power button | 05:45 |
| bobubtu | hello peeps | 05:46 |
| wafflejock | makara: you can try shutdown from the command line but not sure you'll get any difference | 05:46 |
| wafflejock | makara: perhaps switch to a tty first like Ctrl+Alt+F1 then do the shutdown from there and see if you have any messaging about what's failing | 05:46 |
| wjb | The failures are intermittent: sometimes, the writes succeed, and sometimes they fail. I set up an audit of file writes to that directory, and a custom event log filter, during the last hr | 05:47 |
| wafflejock | makara: tried googling some but just finding somewhat related things nothing that's the same https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1346269 | 05:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1346269 in linux (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 14.04 won't shut down (reboots)" [Medium,Confirmed] | 05:47 |
| wjb | If that doesn't produce results, i guess i'll do a windows share + SMB workaround, but that seems less efficient than sharing the folder with VMWare + HGFS | 05:48 |
| wafflejock | makara: in general I mean you can check out your /var/log particularly /var/log/syslog and /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 05:48 |
| TJ- | makara: No; I misread your comment as the USB working fine and the built-in touchpad being laggy | 05:48 |

| expunge | nicolas: how just find it? | 06:37 |
| Abhijit | Beldar, I am workintg with preseed file. | 06:38 |
| nicolas | @expunge. Yes in unetbuttin you can choose your linux. But nothing exist fot MINT 17. | 06:38 |
| Beldar | nicolas, Mint has their own channel, however the usb should be a fat32, and than load the iso downloaded. | 06:38 |
| expunge | nicolas: use the browse for file button | 06:38 |
| expunge | nicolas: download an image and specify it that way | 06:39 |
| nicolas | iso is downloaded | 06:39 |
| expunge | then just tell unetbootin where it is | 06:39 |
| Beldar | Abhijit, Why yes you are, I assume it is a timeout is all. | 06:39 |
| nicolas | to install it on usb key I have to choose on unetbuttin the goog linux. But nothing exist on unetbootin | 06:39 |
| cfhowlett | !mint | nicolas, this is ubuntu. we cannot help with mint. | 06:40 |

| wafflejock | oseku: I mean it would basically defeat the purpose of encrypting the data if it was easy to access without the appropriate credentials so that's some sort of silver lining, but you may have lost whatever is in those directories | 06:57 |
| oseku | wafflejock, in my home directory, I have only two files now.. Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop and README.txt, both refering to ecryptfs-setup-private | 06:58 |
| oseku | wafflejock, that's too bad :( I'm not sure why it happended in the first place..just because I changed my password? | 06:58 |
| wafflejock | oseku: well I'm not sure how you changed your password but there may be some utilities that allow you to change the password but don't properly interact with the encyptfs parts, personally I just don't use the home folder encryption | 06:59 |
| wafflejock | I barely ever take my machine out of my place and just am not that concerned with people who might steal my laptop from my place thinking to try and pull data from it | 07:00 |
| wafflejock | and don't want to deal with the possible problem of being locked out | 07:00 |
| wafflejock | that said I get that some people need it or really want it but in that case you need to be cautious about things that might lock you out and having backups of critical things | 07:00 |
| === Ubuntu1956 is now known as OEIRAS | ||
| TJ- | oseku: You've changed your user password and now you can't unlock the encrypted home ? | 07:02 |
| wafflejock | TJ-: that's the deal | 07:02 |
| oseku | TJ-, yes | 07:02 |
| oseku | TJ-, I changed the password with passwd | 07:02 |
| oseku | wafflejock, I have a backup of most of my files, but just not all of them..so of course I'd like to get access to the remaining files | 07:03 |
| TJ- | oseku: At a terminal do "ecryptfs-mount-private" | 07:03 |
| lavi | wafflejock, have you tried to change the password back to old? | 07:04 |
| TJ- | oseku: What happens is, when you create the encrypted home it uses the user password to encrypt the passphrase used to unlock the data... when you change your user password, you have to update the wrapped passphrase too | 07:04 |
| wafflejock | lavi: actually trying to help oseku | 07:04 |
| lavi | wafflejock, oops :) | 07:04 |
| wafflejock | but just found this bug too https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ecryptfs-utils/+bug/579876 which indicates what you said but the original passwd was lost | 07:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 579876 in ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) "encrypted home directory isn't mounted if password changed by another user" [High,Triaged] | 07:04 |
| lavi | oseku, Have you tried to change tha PSW back to old one? | 07:05 |
| oseku | lavi, I forgot the old one, that's why I have changed it via the recovery console | 07:05 |
| lavi | oseku, sad :( | 07:06 |
| TJ- | oseku: And when you created the encrypted home, did you follow the advice and save the unwrapped pass-phrase? | 07:06 |
| abak | Hi everyone, I have ubuntu and linux installed on my laptop. These days I have to switch very often between the two, is there a way to run both at the same time (as in, running the installed windows in a vm inside ubuntu) | 07:06 |
| oseku | TJ-, I don't remember, since it was a few years ago when I installed 12.04 originally. in what form would the pass-phrase be saved? | 07:06 |
| wafflejock | abak: absolutely | 07:07 |
| wafflejock | abak: I use virtualbox personally and it works just fine | 07:07 |
| abak | how do you set it up ? | 07:07 |
| wafflejock | abak: sudo apt-get install virtualbox | 07:07 |
| oseku | TJ-, when I run the ecryptfs-mount-private command, I get the error "ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly" | 07:07 |
| abak | wafflejock, as in, how do you make sure it doesn't fuck your windows partition ? | 07:07 |
| wafflejock | after you install just launch virtual box you hit new and follow some wizards to point to a disk it all gets saved in an image | 07:08 |
| TJ- | oseku: The ecryptfs utils display it to you and you're expected to save it somewhere safe, off the PC | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | abak: you can't really move an existing system that's more of a pain -> impossible | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | abak: a clean install is fine though | 07:08 |
| oseku | I also run it from the machine directly (not from the live cd), then I get "Enter your login passphrase: Error: Unwrapping passphrase and inserting into the user session keyring failed [-5] Info: Check the system log for more information from libecryptfs ERROR: Your passphrase is incorrect Enter your login passphrase:" | 07:08 |
| TJ- | oseku: OK, without the original password, that won't work anyhow. You *need* the original unwrapped passphrase which you should have put somewhere safe, as it recommends | 07:08 |
| abak | wafflejock, I don't want to move it, just use an exisiting partition as a disk for a vml | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | abak: yeah I've seen some stuff but really that's not gonna work out cause you have different virtualized hardware than you do real hardware | 07:09 |
| oseku | TJ-, I don't remember about that passphrase :( would I be able to restore my files at this point, if I were able to remember my password? | 07:09 |
| wafflejock | abak: I made the switch like a year and a half ago from dual boot to windows in a VM to avoid the reboots | 07:10 |
| oseku | TJ-, I tried my common passwords that I use, but they didn't work.. so I think it's maybe just a small variation or something like that.. so I'm wondering, if that's the only solution, would I be able to get access if I try further my passwords and maybe ge thte right one? | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | abak: but researched a bit and clean install was the only way | 07:10 |
| TJ- | oseku: If you can remember/recover the original password then yes, you can use the tool I showed you to unlock and mount the encrypted home, you can also then use other tools to unwrap the passphrase and re-wrap it with your new password | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | oseku: based on the bug report I linked that worked for people | 07:10 |
| wafflejock | oseku: if they got it right and rebooted it was able to mount | 07:11 |
| oseku | TJ-, wafflejock, thanks..so it seems I must try further :( | 07:11 |
| abak | wafflejock, IIRC this was possible under mac os | 07:11 |
| abak | wafflejock, and i'm not transitionning, i just need windows for some work stuff, and constantly rebooting is a pain | 07:11 |
| OERIAS | Why you gotta be so rude. | 07:11 |
| wafflejock | abak: dunno about that I don't see how the virualization software would keep windows happy regarding drivers/hardware | 07:11 |
| wafflejock | abak: maybe it's possible just dunno? | 07:12 |
| abak | wafflejock, ok thanks | 07:12 |
| wafflejock | everything I found said no but I don't use OS X either | 07:12 |

| TJ- | oseku: The *unwrapped* passphrase - the key used to actually unlock the data - will look similar to this: "50289c1eed8097793526a3e9d8d9ee27" - it's generated by a cryptographic hash function | 07:14 |

| atlanx__ | how can i set the minimum backlight level? all brightness-files are located in /sys/class/backlight/samsung | 07:18 |
| lavi | atlanx__, which laptop? | 07:19 |
| atlanx__ | lavi : Samsung R700 / Nvidia v331.38 / Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty LTS 32Bit / | 07:21 |
| oseku | TJ-, I just got it! :o i run ecryptfs-mount-private and now got the message: Inserted auth tok with sig [number] into the user session keyring. INFO: your private directory has been mounted. To see this change in your current shell: cd /home/username | 07:21 |

| oseku | TJ-, what do I need to do now exactly, that it works every time in the future as it should be and I can access my data through the gui? | 07:21 |
| TJ- | oseku: so now you just need to re-sync the wrapper password to your new user password | 07:22 |
| oseku | I randomly typed some variations of my old passwords, so I am now not completly sure which one was the right one \: | 07:22 |
| ubunt | when i download a file with wget and want to put other name, how make? | 07:23 |
| lavi | atlanx__, Are you using some script to set backlight, or it worked out of the box? | 07:23 |
| TJ- | oseku: I'm just double-checking the way you rewrap the passphrase | 07:24 |
| atlanx__ | lavi : i use http://www.voria.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1091 | 07:25 |
| TJ- | atlanx__: You'll probably need nvidiabl (nvidia backlight) https://github.com/guillaumezin/nvidiabl | 07:27 |
| lavi | atlanx__, 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. | 07:27 |

| bronzilla | TJ-: hey can you help me?? :) | 07:35 |
| TJ- | oseku: You can do it now, but make sure you've saved the *unwrapped passphrase* outside the unlocked home first, then you need to log-out/log-in to test it works | 07:35 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: What is the issue? | 07:35 |
| oseku | TJ-, thank you, I'll try now | 07:35 |

| TJ- | bronzilla: huh? so you've changed the user's password at some point and not synchronised that change with the encrypted home? | 07:41 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: how does that happen ? wont passwrd changed get updated everywhere? | 07:42 |
| oseku | TJ-, it seems to have worked. restarting now to test again | 07:42 |
| TJ- | Like buses... not one for ages and then two lost encrypted home directories come along at once :D | 07:42 |
| oseku | :D | 07:43 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: what buses? :( :( | 07:43 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: it depends on how you changed the user's password. If you did it from another user account, then the synchronisation with the encrypted passphrase can't be done | 07:43 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: You're lucky - we've just fixed this same issue for oseku | 07:43 |

| TJ- | oseku: Glad we got you sorted :) | 07:44 |
| oseku | TJ-, login also works now, although i just get the mouse cursor and no other elements, folders etc.. but that seems to be another problem, maybe because of the upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04..? | 07:45 |

| TJ- | atlanx__: you'll need to add another setting first | 08:15 |
| TJ- | atlanx__: You'll need to add "nvidiabl" to the end of "/etc/modules" | 08:16 |
| atlanx__ | TJ- . ok | 08:16 |
| Petazz | Hi! I cannot get sudo working with NOPASSWD | 08:16 |
| TJ- | atlanx__: That way the module will be inserted using the options in nvidiabl.conf | 08:17 |
| Petazz | I currently have in visudo: myuser ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL | 08:17 |
| Beldar | littlegigs, I use the shell, with hexchat, xchat would work however. There are gnome 3 extensions as well there is a website. | 08:17 |
| Gatis | it' strange apt-get doesn't remove all lxde packages... i used sudo aptitude remove lxde.. and it showed a lot of packages to remove... Why so? | 08:17 |
| Beldar | Petazz, nopassword mens just that | 08:18 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: ok i got no error | 08:18 |
| atlanx__ | TJ- : I checked now - nvidia_bl is still in etc/modules | 08:18 |
| Beldar | means* | 08:18 |
| TJ- | atlanx__: Good :) | 08:18 |
| bronzilla | passphase to wrap | 08:18 |
| Petazz | Beldar: Yea but that doesn't work | 08:18 |
| littlegigs | Beldar, ok cool ill give Hexchat a try, ive just got some work to do then ill update my OS and restart.. see if things changed if not ill check out hex chat | 08:18 |
| Petazz | Sudo still asks my user a password | 08:18 |
| bronzilla | wrapping passphase entered :) | 08:18 |
| Beldar | Petazz, YOu should not be doing it. | 08:18 |
| bronzilla | do i try logging in now? | 08:18 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: Yes, log-out ("exit") and log-in again on the same tty | 08:19 |
| Petazz | Beldar: Why not? | 08:19 |
| Petazz | And more importantly, why does it still ask the password? | 08:19 |
| Beldar | Petazz, The use of a password and sudo is a security protection | 08:19 |
| Petazz | Yea I want to drop sec here ;) But still, why doesn't it work? | 08:20 |

| ph1|1p | the machine freezes after a few minutes each time I reboot it. | 08:23 |
| abaday | ? | 08:24 |
| TJ- | LeMike: is it possible that VGA output is not the Primary, and is therefore not being used? | 08:24 |
| ph1|1p | it was shut down for a long time, but before that I had similar issues but only occasionally. | 08:24 |
| ph1|1p | meaning sometimes when I rebooted it, it would freeze like it does now. | 08:24 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: thanks. let me research that | 08:24 |
| ph1|1p | other times it would run fine and never freeze. | 08:24 |
| k1l_ | ph1|1p: see the logs after a freeze | 08:24 |
| Petazz | Hi! Why does sudo still ask me for a password even though I currently have in visudo: myuser ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL | 08:24 |
| ph1|1p | which logs, k1l_ ? | 08:24 |
| TJ- | atlanx__: in summary, you probably need "options nvidiabl type=firmware" in "/etc/modprobe.d/nvidiabl.conf" and then do a re-start to ensure that is picked up | 08:25 |
| k1l_ | if you need to reboot see the .0 or .1 logs. syslog and dmesg in /var/log/ | 08:25 |
| LeMike | yee TJ- , the laptop screen is primary and VGA not. in addition the screen isn't shown in "settings > display" | 08:25 |
| ph1|1p | possibly /var/log/kern.log? | 08:25 |
| ShalokShalom | anybody here, who can share a remastersys deb with me ? or Black Lab Image Creator ? | 08:25 |

| k1l_ | remastersys i depracated ShalokShalom | 08:26 |
| ph1|1p | k1l_: so what exactly is the .1 log? I'm not sure what to look for here, either. | 08:26 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: OK... the password you just used to rewrap the passphrase - it is definitely the same password as the user has for log-in? | 08:26 |
| ph1|1p | k1l_: would it be the last entry that relates to the crash? | 08:26 |
| ph1|1p | I think this is chronologically ordered. | 08:26 |
| ShalokShalom | k1l_: i aim to use it for 12.4 | 08:26 |

| Beldar | ShalokShalom, This channel supports stuff from ubuntu technically, using a deprecated app is a bad idea anyway. | 08:30 |

| Gatis | k1l explain me why purge doesn't work and autoremove? | 08:31 |
| Gatis | Im new user | 08:31 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: Hmmm... if that bug relates directly to your situation, it infers that the user account doesn't have encrypted filenames, only contents, and we can check that manually | 08:32 |
| eeee | get the list of installed packages, and use for i in `cat packages`; do sudo apt-get purge $i; done | 08:32 |
| Beldar | ShalokShalom, it was never in the repos, not supported | 08:32 |

| lorenx | hi all, i'm having a problem with apt and php5-fpm: http://pastebin.com/M3tyF7mq | 09:12 |
| lorenx | it seems the php5-common version is the cause... | 09:13 |
| karab44 | ok I found lmsensors quite useful | 09:13 |
| lorenx | is there some other command i could try? thanks | 09:13 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: hey | 09:13 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: run a "sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 09:13 |
| cfhowlett | *update && sudo* spaces matter | 09:14 |
| === fred_ is now known as Guest74367 | ||
| lorenx | k1l_: update works fine, this is dist-upgrade: http://pastebin.com/EMAnK6d0 | 09:14 |
| k1l_ | cfhowlett: works here :) | 09:15 |
| lorenx | i've also tried to remove all my /var/lib/apt/lists/* | 09:15 |
| karab44 | how to measure cpu frequency then? | 09:15 |
| llutz | karab44: grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo | 09:17 |
| yecril71pl | even though x-scheme-handler/mailto is set to thunderbird in /etc/mailcap | 09:17 |
| karab44 | llutz: is it updating realtime? | 09:17 |
| llutz | karab44: nope | 09:17 |
| karab44 | well | 09:17 |
| karab44 | I am looking for RTmonitor | 09:17 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: is there some PPA enabled? | 09:17 |
| lorenx | k1l_: i had but i removed all my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | 09:18 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: did you remove the PPAs.packages, too? | 09:19 |
| LamP | Hello. How do I partition 2x1TB hard drives for file server and keep hard drives separated? | 09:19 |
| karab44 | llutz: yes, it's actually updating itself. It's fine for me, thank you | 09:19 |
| yecril71pl | and also in /etc/gnome/defaults.list | 09:19 |
| yecril71pl | and nothing helps | 09:19 |
| lorenx | k1l_: no | 09:19 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: see with "apt-cache policy package" if that packages are comming from the ubuntu repo | 09:20 |
| lorenx | k1l_: what package, php5-fpm or php5-common | 09:20 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: both | 09:20 |
| lorenx | and what should i look for in that command output | 09:20 |
| llutz | karab44: you always can use "watch -n XX" to update info. grep itself won't | 09:20 |
| karab44 | llutz: I mean cpu info updates realtime, that's good | 09:21 |
| llutz | karab44: ah ok, yes thats auto-updating | 09:21 |

| bronzilla | TJ-: can't pastebin installed it but can't get inside /.encrypt/ | 09:25 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: It's "/home/.ecryptfs/$USER/" that contains ".ecryptfs/" (the settings) and ".Private/" (the files) | 09:26 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: then do "ls -al /mnt/target/.ecryptfs/tj/.ecryptfs/ | pastebinit" | 09:26 |
| k1l_ | lorenx: hmm. try a "sudo apt-get clean" change to the main servers, and see if that depency is right then | 09:26 |
| karab44 | llutz: this watch is brilliant idea, thank you! | 09:26 |
| bronzilla | this din't work with /username/ | 09:26 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: I said after, I gave you the wrong directory | 09:27 |
| lorenx | k1l_: i've already tried "sudo apt-get clean" | 09:27 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: I was working here from mounting a different file-system, so the original path I gave was only good for me | 09:27 |
| bronzilla | ls -al /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ecryptfs/ | pastebinit | 09:28 |
| Gatis | Please explain me: "For example, if a sysadmind wanted to override the system configured default session (provided in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d) they should make a file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-myconfig.conf with the following:" | 09:30 |

| k1l_ | Gatis: that is not a ...conf.d/ folder | 09:36 |
| Gatis | I don;t have conf.d folder | 09:37 |
| Gatis | It says: System administrators can override this configuration in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf and /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. | 09:37 |
| Gatis | So i wonder why i have 3 confs in /etc/lightdm folder? | 09:37 |
| * Gatis wants to understad this completely | 09:38 | |
| TJ- | bronzilla: That looks correct too | 09:38 |

| Gatis | lightdm.conf lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf lightdm-gtk-greeter-ubuntu.conf users.conf | 09:39 |
| Gatis | Does system read all 3 confs? | 09:40 |
| Gatis | or just lightdm.conf? | 09:40 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: It prompts you for the passphrase (the cryptographic hash that looks like an MD5 sum), then for the password to wrap it with | 09:42 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: right... gave hash followed by my current password | 09:43 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: that should re-write the "wrapped-passphrase" file | 09:43 |

| nicolas_ | hi - just a easy question please: how format a usb key in fat32 ? thank yu | 09:48 |
| nicolas_ | (m on linux mint) | 09:48 |
| k1l_ | nicolas_: use gparted. for more support ask the mint guys if they got other solutions in their setup | 09:49 |
| k1l_ | !mint | nicolas_ | 09:49 |
| ubottu | nicolas_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 09:49 |
| nicolas_ | there re nobody on mint chat | 09:49 |
| k1l_ | nicolas_: its another irc network | 09:49 |
| cfhowlett | nicolas_, mint is not supported here. NOT supported here. this is ubuntu. | 09:49 |
| nicolas_ | but isn t the same wat to format a usb key on every linux ? | 09:50 |
| cfhowlett | nicolas_, mint - is - not - supported - here. | 09:50 |
| cfhowlett | nicolas_, and no, it's not the same on every linux. | 09:50 |
| nicolas_ | ok I ride on ubuntu now but I want to install mint | 09:50 |
| Welastevil | someone knows where can I do a download of terminal emulator "terminology"? | 09:50 |
| k1l_ | nicolas_: last time now: if you dont like the support the community offers for you dont use that OS. you were given a solution and a place to ask for more support. | 09:51 |
| cfhowlett | nicolas_, fine. go to mint website, find installation instructions. | 09:51 |
| nicolas_ | ok guys I try another way | 09:51 |
| alive4ever | Why not? nicolas_, you can just type "sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1" | 09:51 |
| alive4ever | Read manpage of mkfs.vfat for more details. | 09:51 |
| elichai2 | my laptop is auto disconnecting from the wifi after i leave it, there is any way to disable that? | 09:52 |

| bronzilla | Anyone here know's a way of extracting files from encrypted home directory using backup passphase?? | 09:54 |
| elichai2 | how to Prevent WiFi from disconnecting on idle? | 09:56 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: "ecryptfs-mount-private" should do that... you'll probably have to "cd /home/$USER/" after it succeeds to see the files though | 09:56 |
| superman098 | guys, how to completely remove unity from ubuntu and full switch to fluxbox? i have ubuntu with fluxbox installed and stuck when try to get rid all of unity part... anybody? | 09:58 |
| cfhowlett | !nounity | 09:58 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 09:58 |

| bronzilla | nevermind.. that's my key.. TJ- all zeros right? | 10:04 |
| cfhowlett | elichai2, logout = disconnect for security. | 10:04 |

| bronzilla | then why do I get key error? | 10:05 |
| adrian_ | hola | 10:05 |
| elichai2 | cfhowlett, really? so whenever i logout its immediately auto disconnecting from the wifi? | 10:05 |
| bronzilla | it's a hard written backup copy I wrote down during creation!!! | 10:05 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: because either the unwrapped version is not correct, or that one does not match the one used to encrypt the data | 10:05 |
| cfhowlett | elichai2, would you really want your system connected w/o user control? | 10:06 |

| kgalahassa | my minitube crash on ubuntu 14.04 eachtime once i have done a search | 10:08 |

| k1l_ | nicolas_: what does "lsb_release -d" give you? | 10:14 |
| llutz | elichai2: check if there are some powersaving options active (wifi-settings, powersettings) | 10:14 |
| nicolas_ | it doens t work kll | 10:14 |
| elichai2 | llutz, the only thing in the power settings is i asked it to not suspend my laptop. theres nothing else there i can set | 10:15 |
| k1l_ | nicolas_: then go to the mint guys and ask them for support like told several times now! | 10:15 |

| elichai2 | ops, sorry for the repost | 10:36 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: Yes, same as mine *but* the group ID is again wrong, on mine the 4 lines have: 65534, 65534, 1000, 1000. "1000" is my user's group ID, 65534 is "nobody" group | 10:37 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: How can i fix that? | 10:37 |
| ubunt | hello | 10:37 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: have you done anything recently with user accounts, IDs, or the PAM sub-system for logins? | 10:37 |
| iSagitt | TIMON!! | 10:38 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: I have no idea; this is the first time I've had to deal with the key database infrastructure this deeply, I'm not even sure if that is an indicator of a/the problem, or not | 10:38 |
| Deepfriedice | Guest91588: Do you have an older mobo? If so, then that sounds right. | 10:38 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: used root method for changing password... | 10:38 |
| ubunt | somebody know a mp4 to mpeg2 converter that work from shell terminal? | 10:39 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: but that was long back... | 10:39 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: Not clear how to solve this, we've investigated and used all the regular methods for fixing the general issue, but you've got something slightly different going on there | 10:40 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: :( tell me am I doomed? | 10:40 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: You need someone like Dustin Kirkland, one of the core devs of ecryptfs. File a bug against ecryptfs | 10:42 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: long shot but... I wonder if the keyring just has a bad key in it from the messing about... try a full restart just-in-case | 10:43 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: i've already restarted like thrice! | 10:43 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: OK, scrube that idea then | 10:44 |
| bronzilla | TJ-: is dustion on irc? | 10:44 |
| bronzilla | *dustin | 10:44 |
| bronzilla | ready to file a bug tell me what all i need to mention? | 10:44 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: bug report then. No. He'll see te bug report if you file it against ecryptfs. subscribe me too (user 'tj' on launchpad) and I'll follow up on it | 10:44 |
| TJ- | bronzilla: Primary is the actual error you see when logging-in, then explain the lost-password change from root, then the basic rewrap tasks you've gone through to use the new user password to wrap the passphrase, and that you have the original passphrase written down from 2012 | 10:46 |
| kudakwashe | i mistakenly chose the uk keyboard during installation, should have chosen us, so now when i want a tilde i get ¬ and if i want a hash i get £ | 10:47 |
| kudakwashe | how can i change that? | 10:47 |
| kudakwashe | i was thinking about spelling not the keyboard layout eg colour color not the layout of the keys | 10:47 |
| vitimiti | kudakwashe, in the keyboard configuration you have an option for text entry where to change and edit the layouts | 10:48 |
| vitimiti | kudakwashe, and then, in the languages support, make sure English (US) is in the first place and make it install such language support | 10:49 |
| kudakwashe | i'm using language UK because in Zimbabwe we use British English but the keybourd layout i need is US not UK | 10:50 |
| kudakwashe | the language settings are okay | 10:50 |
| kudakwashe | it's just two keys that are giving me a problem | 10:50 |
| kudakwashe | hash and tilde | 10:50 |
| vitimiti | The let the language as it is and change the language | 10:50 |
| vitimiti | screw me | 10:50 |
| vitimiti | kudakwashe, change the layout and leave the language, I meant | 10:51 |
| kudakwashe | where do i change the layout | 10:51 |

| ringzer0 | Is there an escape char or some way to reset these terminal tabs in the gui without loosing the tab? | 12:37 |
| ringzer0 | in putty/kitty, you just click the top left, and click "restart connection" - I just dont want to have to open a new tab and rename ... | 12:38 |

| ringzer0 | drewjo: basically, the tabs freeze when you loose your ssh connection. | 12:42 |
| drewjo | I don't think you can work around that. | 12:42 |

| deriidf | nice to meet you all | 13:38 |
| drewjo | You too, deriidf | 13:38 |
| digitsm | I installed Broadcom STA proprietary driver. let me reboot to see whether my wifi will work? | 13:40 |
| drewjo | ok do it digitsm | 13:40 |
| yskapell | any clue what the f***k is going on? | 13:41 |
| deriidf | how to save battery? | 13:42 |
| drewjo | yskapell, what? | 13:42 |
| drewjo | !battery | 13:42 |
| drewjo | !power | 13:43 |
| wheatthin | yskapell, even if it's blocked out, please watch the language.. it looks like you have entered a PPA that isn't valid | 13:43 |
| drewjo | deriidf, you can turn your brightness down | 13:43 |
| drewjo | and you can slow your cpu down | 13:43 |
| drewjo | turn the sound off too | 13:43 |
| deriidf | ok.. thanks | 13:44 |
| wheatthin | drewjo, Umm lolol | 13:44 |
| drewjo | wheatthin, what? | 13:44 |
| yskapell | wheatthin: I enter nothing. It is the default of Ubuntu | 13:44 |

| deriidf | I'm not good at english language, I'm looking for language i can | 13:45 |
| wheatthin | drewjo, since the early 90's sound hasn't played a huge part on any cpu consumption. | 13:46 |
| drewjo | no, but it draws power from the batter | 13:46 |
| deriidf | bye.. i must go to #ubuntu-indonesia | 13:46 |
| drewjo | battery | 13:46 |
| MonkeyDust | deriidf save the battery by not switching the pc on (joke) | 13:47 |
| drewjo | the cpu isn't a power source | 13:47 |
| wheatthin | drewjo, then you'd have to turn it off from the bios.. which is stupid. Plug the thing in, or battery with extended life | 13:47 |
| wheatthin | buy* | 13:47 |
| drewjo | I'm talking about sounds | 13:47 |
| drewjo | playing sounds uses power | 13:47 |
| drewjo | so mute the speaker | 13:47 |
| wheatthin | lol that doesn't make sense. | 13:48 |
| wheatthin | the chip is still powered. | 13:48 |
| drewjo | yes it does | 13:48 |
| popey | I'd recommend using tools like powertop to analyse power usage. | 13:48 |
| drewjo | the speaker cone is what uses power | 13:48 |
| popey | nope | 13:48 |
| wheatthin | lol | 13:48 |
| drewjo | it is an electromegnet | 13:48 |
| drewjo | electromagnet | 13:48 |
| popey | The display, hard disk, cpu and gpu eat way more than the speaker. | 13:48 |
| drewjo | I never said they didn't | 13:49 |
| cyford | amplifier uses power | 13:49 |
| drewjo | I'm just answering his question | 13:49 |
| popey | so why focus on something that doesn't eat power. | 13:49 |
| wheatthin | smh | 13:49 |
| drewjo | it does if you are playing sounds | 13:49 |
| popey | you get way better benefits by actually focussing on the thing eating your battery. | 13:49 |

| david38400 | popey, I disconnected the hdmi cable and left only the vga | 13:57 |
| popey | david38400: is the TV on HDMI input, and not VGA input? (also unplug the VGA) | 13:57 |
| ifg_ | bitch | 13:57 |
| popey | david38400: no, you wanted the other | 13:57 |
| ifg_ | bitch | 13:57 |
| david38400 | popey, its on vga input | 13:58 |
| _0943x | studentt, First must be windows | 13:58 |
| MonkeyDust | studentt first "win, then lin", or windows ruins your grub menu (windows is good ruining pc's) | 13:58 |
| studentt | okay | 13:58 |
| popey | david38400: you want HDMI, audio goes over HDMI cables, not over VGA, VGA is display only, no audio | 13:58 |
| popey | david38400: whereas HDMI carries display and Audio | 13:58 |
| popey | well.. it can ☻ | 13:58 |
| yskapell | ok here is the issue | 13:58 |

| digitsm | I couldn't shutdown or suspend | 13:59 |
| yskapell | popey: no iptables | 14:00 |
| popey | david38400: the order isn't important, just remove VGA and plug HDMI | 14:00 |

| digitsm | P.P.S. I have 2 wifi cards (another one is an external PCMCIA card) | 14:07 |

| yskapell | no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory | 14:07 |
| popey | david38400: the tv should have an option to select input. usually a remote has a button with a square with a little arrow pointing into it | 14:07 |
| eeee | yskapell: try ls -l `which sudo` | 14:08 |

| Muchoz | I dualbooted a Windows 8 with Ubuntu 14.04 and changed the grub settings so it would wait 5 seconds and boot into Windows, else you could select Ubuntu. We used boot-repair and everything was fine, we could boot into Ubuntu. But once we boot into Windows, it doesn't go to the grub anymore. I have disabled secure boot and Windows Fastboot. Then I have also installed Ubuntu with an EFI partition and a swap partition. Can someone please tell me how to | 14:17 |
| Muchoz | tell this shitty Windows to go to Grub? | 14:17 |
| cfhowlett | Muchoz, no profanity. not permitted. stop now. | 14:18 |

| Muchoz | eeee, as I said. We install Ubuntu and in the boot options (grub) we select Ubuntu and that works fine. But if you select Windows once, you can never go in the selector again. | 14:26 |
| eeee | Muchoz: there might be something like "OS boot manager, ubuntu" in the bios boot options | 14:26 |

| Muchoz | But I'm only following you atm | 15:03 |
| eeee | Muchoz: you mean the bcd entry? or switch the bootx64.efi files? | 15:03 |
| Muchoz | it tells us to run this command in Windows: | 15:04 |
| eeee | like bcdedit {bootmgr} etc. ? or switch the bootx64.efi file | 15:04 |
| Muchoz | Yes | 15:04 |
| Muchoz | Exactly | 15:04 |
| Muchoz | bcdedit one | 15:04 |
| eeee | it really depends on your laptop | 15:04 |
| Muchoz | It's a desktop though and there is no bootx64.efi file | 15:05 |
| Muchoz | wait | 15:05 |
| eeee | i tried the bcdedit it didn't work, others only switch the files and it worked, i deleted the files, changed the bootmgr entries and it worked, | 15:05 |
| Muchoz | there is bootx64 in /mnt/boot/efi/EFI/Boot | 15:05 |

| smitzer | staffan@staffangolazo:~$ cat bashrc | 15:23 |
| MonkeyDust | tado it's your wireless connection that must be repaired, i guess | 15:23 |
| smitzer | export PATH=${PATH}:$HOME/gsutil | 15:23 |
| smitzer | export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/android-studio/bin | 15:23 |
| smitzer | is added to my bashrc but still i cant just do studio.sh everywhere | 15:24 |
| tado | MonkeyDust: why would my wireless connection have anything to do with ubuntu booting? | 15:24 |
| MonkeyDust | tado plug a cable and try again | 15:24 |
| MonkeyDust | tado because PXE is over a network | 15:24 |
| Muchoz | but uname -m says: x86_64 | 15:24 |
| Muchoz | What are you trying to do because my shift is ending :p | 15:25 |
| eeee | Muchoz: reinstall grub | 15:25 |
| eeee | try --target /dev/sda | 15:25 |
| eeee | ah wait | 15:26 |
| tado | MonkeyDust: it shows me the client mac addr and the guid now, and it's thinking. but again, what does it mean that it's over a network. it's a normal install i had | 15:26 |
| eeee | target is for the architecture | 15:26 |
| Muchoz | ok | 15:26 |
| Muchoz | waiting | 15:26 |
| MonkeyDust | tado then try with a cable connection, as the error suggests, to rule that out | 15:28 |
| tado | MonkeyDust: it still says PXE-E53 no boot filename received. and then again the pxe-m0f exiting like before | 15:29 |

| annoymouse | cfhowlett: I have to USBs one with the installer and one to install to | 15:36 |
| annoymouse | So I don't think I need pendrivelinux | 15:36 |
| eeee | smitzer: maybe cuz it's a hidden file, try ctrl+h | 15:36 |
| cfhowlett | annoymouse, OK ... | 15:37 |
| tado | MonkeyDust: it seems to suggest that the problem arises because it tries to boot from lan instead than from my HDD, but why should it do that, when HDD is higher in boot priority? | 15:37 |
| MonkeyDust | tado that's what i said: pxe is over a LAN network | 15:38 |
| MonkeyDust | tado so check/change the boot order in your bios | 15:40 |
| tado | MonkeyDust: but why should it try to boot my OS from LAN? Everything ran smooth until i reset bios to default, so the issue should be in bios' settings. but i can't seem to find anything that would suggest it shouldn't load normally | 15:40 |
| MonkeyDust | tado yes, but i don't know about your bios, can't help with that | 15:40 |

| skulltip | ing more for a generic 'is it compatible' rather than anything else? | 15:59 |
| cfhowlett | skulltip, best place to ask: ##linux | 15:59 |
| annoymouse | cfhowlett: Do I need a new partition table? | 16:00 |
| causative | if I right click on the file and click properties, it says it's at "cdda://sr0" but this doesn't tell me anything, I think | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | cemc: if you use /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head and add the nameservers to the bottom of the file it will supercede the ones given by DHCP | 16:00 |

| ubottu | annoymouse: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 16:15 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: its like the pagefile in windows, but Linux us smart enough to use a separate partition for it to reduce fragmentatin | 16:15 |
| annoymouse | bazhang: So basically sacrificing storage space for more "RAM"? | 16:16 |
| ActionParsnip | *fragmentation | 16:16 |
| annoymouse | Do I need it? | 16:16 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, how ch RAM do you have? | 16:16 |
| ObrienDave | *much | 16:16 |
| annoymouse | 8GB | 16:16 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | hey brian lunduke just posted an ignorant review on Ubuntu Unity, where he calls the Dash, "The HUD", | 16:16 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | http://www.networkworld.com/article/2466595/opensource-subnet/the-linux-desktop-a-week-review-ubuntu-unity.html | 16:16 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | post in the comments to tell him how wrong he is. | 16:17 |
| cemc | ActionParsnip: no good. I've added the nameserver in head, but the other nameservers from DHCP still get added in resolv.conf | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: depends how much RAM you have and what you use your system for | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | cemc: it will, but the lines you add in the head file will be used first | 16:17 |
| annoymouse | ActionParsnip: So if I don't want more RAM, I don't need to make a /swap partition? | 16:17 |
| ObrienDave | Akiva-Thinkpad, who is brian lunduke and why should we care about his opinion? | 16:17 |
| ActionParsnip | cemc: the head file contains the lines that get added to /etc/resolv.conf to say "don't edit this file" | 16:18 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | ObrienDave, he used to be the co host of the linux action show | 16:18 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | the largest linux podcast in the word | 16:18 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | world* | 16:18 |
| ObrienDave | whoopie | 16:18 |
| Akiva-Thinkpad | :) | 16:18 |
| bazhang | !ot | Akiva-Thinkpad | 16:18 |
| ubottu | Akiva-Thinkpad: #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! | 16:18 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: no if you have 32Gb RAM and want to web browse and chat you will never touch swap | 16:18 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: unless you need hibernate functionality | 16:18 |
| MiraCZ | hey there | 16:18 |
| cemc | ActionParsnip: I know that, but I don't want the others in there at all ;) can that be done somehow? | 16:18 |
| annoymouse | ActionParsnip: Is there any other partitions that can/should be made? | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | cemc: not sure there but if the DNS server you set work then the lines will never be in effect | 16:19 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: you can make a swap file if you want, it will do the same | 16:19 |
| annoymouse | I'll pass | 16:19 |
| MiraCZ | I have got Ubuntu server and I got it when I was trying things what is it capable of and so, now I'd like to clean the server, I believe there are things that I dont need and that makes my server slower, can you guys send me link to some tutorial about cleaning/restoring Ubuntu? | 16:19 |
| annoymouse | thanks ActionParsnip | 16:19 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, most people like separate / and /home partitions | 16:19 |
| Nach0z | separate / and /home make it easier to recover from having to reinstall a bricked installation | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | cemc: you could add a command to run after a while to remove the lines from the file, but its purely cosmetic, and considering you won't be poking around in that file in day to day usage, its hardly worth the actual effort | 16:20 |
| annoymouse | ObrienDave: /home is for all the user data, correct? | 16:20 |
| cfhowlett | MiraCZ, do you know your installation date? | 16:20 |
| Nach0z | also makes it easier to share a /home directory between multiple linux installations | 16:20 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, correct | 16:20 |
| MiraCZ | 1-2 years ago | 16:20 |
| annoymouse | ObrienDave: Is there any advantage to separating / and /home, or is it just a common thing to do? | 16:21 |
| ObrienDave | <Nach0z> separate / and /home make it easier to recover from having to reinstall a bricked installation | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: it makes reinstalls easier, as well as backups | 16:21 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: it also keeps user data away from system data. | 16:21 |
| cfhowlett | MiraCZ, cat /var/log/dpkg* will show ALL the packages you installed. | 16:21 |
| MiraCZ | thank you, cfhowlett | 16:22 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: if you are asking all these questions I suggest you let Ubuntu do it's thing. It is aimed at users of your level of ability | 16:22 |
| cfhowlett | MiraCZ, happy2help | 16:22 |
| annoymouse | ActionParsnip: What do you mean "do it's thing"? | 16:22 |
| MonkeyDust | annoymouse without you changing anything | 16:23 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, the disadvantage is you have to decide how large to make the / partition. kind of like deciding how many minutes of a cell phone plan to buy | 16:23 |
| xangua | 10 fit, 20 regular, 50 big, done | 16:24 |
| annoymouse | Okay. I'm just going to use the Installer. My only question is what should I select for "Device for bootloader installation"? | 16:24 |
| eeee | annoymouse: leave it as is | 16:24 |
| ActionParsnip | annoymouse: just let the installer do a default install | 16:24 |
| === quem_ is now known as quem | ||
| annoymouse | ActionParsnip: I can't because I'm not installing to my harddrive, so I need to select the device to install to manually. | 16:25 |
| annoymouse | eeee: Won't that replace my computer's bootloader though? | 16:25 |
| eeee | annoymouse: that's the point :D | 16:25 |
| annoymouse | eeee: I don't want that though | 16:26 |
| eeee | how are you going to dual boot ? | 16:26 |
| annoymouse | eeee: I'm not going to dual boot. I'm installing Ubuntu to a flash drive. | 16:27 |
| eeee | annoymouse: why don't you want that? | 16:27 |
| eeee | oh | 16:27 |
| CoolApps | I've recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my desktop (couldn't find the other disc which is more up-to-date), there is an option to upgrade but I just get an error saying "Failed to fetch". | 16:28 |
| eeee | what does it currently say? | 16:28 |
| ActionParsnip | !eolupgrade | CoolApps | 16:28 |
| ubottu | CoolApps: 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 | 16:28 |
| cfhowlett | CoolApps, 11.04 > 11.10 > 12.04> 14.04 | 16:29 |
| xangua | CoolApps: it would be easier and faster to download an up to date suported release | 16:29 |
| ActionParsnip | CoolApps: I'd use the OS you have to download and burn a Trusty ISO (Ubuntu 14.04). Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019 | 16:29 |
| cfhowlett | CoolApps, in other words "clean install" is the better option. use torrents to get 14.04.1 | 16:29 |
| CoolApps | Ok, I have a lot of blank discs hanging around so I might as well use them. :P | 16:30 |
| cfhowlett | CoolApps, you can also try USB | 16:30 |
| annoymouse | Is it okay to install the bootloader to the LiveUSB? | 16:31 |
| cfhowlett | !usb | coolapps | 16:31 |
| ubottu | coolapps: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 16:31 |
| CoolApps | True, I haven't done USB installs for a while now. | 16:31 |
| lickalott | Hey guys! | 16:31 |
| lickalott | I don't think it's said enough and I wanted to let you know that all the help that you guys dish out is very much appreciated! I have only been here with one issue that wasn't resolved within a few hours. | 16:32 |
| annoymouse | Should I select the device itself to install to, or a partition on the device? | 16:32 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: you don't install the liveusb | 16:32 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: the liveusb already boots, hence why it's a liveusb | 16:32 |
| CoolApps | Any idea how big is the download? | 16:33 |
| asarch | I have a successfully-configured shared across my LAN HP F4280 Deskjet printer in a Slackware-based old PC. When I use another Slackware-based client I can print the test page, however, when I use the latest Ubuntu-based laptop to print the test page, I only get the message on the page: "#PDF-BANNER Template default-testpage.pdf Show printer-name printer-info...", why? | 16:33 |
| annoymouse | ikonia: I'm installing from the LiveUSB to another USB (to make a permanent LiveUSB) | 16:33 |
| annoymouse | CoolApps: 1.1GB afaik | 16:33 |
| CoolApps | That should be enough. | 16:34 |
| CoolApps | Thanks. | 16:34 |
| logicalguy | hi, I'm trying to install nodejs from the chris-lea ppa and I get this message: nodejs : Conflicts: npm but 1.3.10~dfsg-1 is to be installed. | 16:34 |
| annoymouse | So is it the device itself, or a partition on that device? | 16:34 |
| ikonia | lordjancso: packages conflict | 16:35 |
| lordjancso | ikonia sorry? | 16:35 |
| ikonia | lordjancso: sorry, meant logicalguy | 16:35 |
| k1l | logicalguy: do you have PPAs active that interfer with this package? | 16:35 |
| lordjancso | ohh ok, np | 16:35 |
| logicalguy | The following actions will resolve these dependencies: Keep the following packages at their current version: 1) npm [Not Installed] | 16:35 |
| logicalguy | k1l, just the official repos and the chris-lea ppa | 16:36 |

| Bazylot | hello, i am looking for help about hotkeys in ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Can anyone help me ? | 16:37 |
| logicalguy | ikonia, k1l, I don't know if i should accept the proposed solution | 16:38 |
| Sevet | does anyone know why pbuilder runs with DIST=trusty (correct) but DISTRIBUTION=saucy? | 16:38 |
| annoymouse | Getting a "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu." error when I try to install | 16:38 |
| ikonia | logicalguy depends, | 16:38 |
| logicalguy | of course | 16:38 |
| ikonia | logicalguy: if you're not sure I'd question why you are using a PPA | 16:38 |
| logicalguy | because on this page https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-node-js-on-an-ubuntu-14-04-server | 16:39 |
| logicalguy | it says the ppa has more recent version | 16:39 |
| ikonia | logicalguy: that doesn't mean you need to use that | 16:39 |
| hylian | is there a weather app for unity anymore? or even just a lens? | 16:39 |
| ikonia | logicalguy: that means you've chosen to use that | 16:39 |
| annoymouse | Does no one here know how to make a full LiveUSB? | 16:39 |
| ThreadKiLL | Hi | 16:39 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: what's your actual problem ? | 16:39 |
| logicalguy | ikonia, no, but what's the harm in wanting the latest if it is available? | 16:40 |
| annoymouse | ikonia: "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu." | 16:40 |
| annoymouse | Why is that happening? | 16:40 |
| ikonia | logicalguy: because it's an unsupported package that appears to cause conflict when people blindly install it for no reason | 16:40 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: that means you've not defined a "/" partition on the target install | 16:40 |
| kostkon | hylian, indicator-weather or my-weather-indicator two good ones | 16:40 |
| ThreadKiLL | what's wrong on my shell when i do sudo apt-get update it says Building dependency tree... Done & E: Unable to locate package wget | 16:40 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, you don't make a "LiveUSB", you install the system to an external USB drive | 16:40 |
| annoymouse | ikonia: How can I define a / partition? | 16:41 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: you do it in the partition section of the install | 16:41 |
| hylian | quit | 16:41 |
| ThreadKiLL | anyone help? why i cant install or modify things on my ubntu? | 16:41 |
| ikonia | ThreadKiLL: what's the problem | 16:41 |

| annoymouse | I did | 16:42 |
| ikonia | annoymouse: you've not | 16:42 |
| ikonia | ThreadKiLL: please show me (in a pastebin) the output of "sudo apt-get update" | 16:43 |
| annoymouse | I'm at the step where it asks you to choose which partition to install to | 16:43 |

| annoymouse | ikonia: /dev/sdc | 16:43 |
| ThreadKiLL | ikonia it only says Reading package lists... Done | 16:43 |

| Kira9204 | eeee: it works the same for renaming, mv <oldname> <newname> | 17:02 |

| eeee | Kira9204: i know | 17:03 |
| kull | Trying to run Aptana Standalone version but I get this error.... Could not display "AptanaStudio 3" There is no spplication installed for executable files.... | 17:03 |
| kull | BTW the said file is on a NTFS formatted partition | 17:04 |
| _nedR | Also sometimes busy applications like firefox causes system to freeze up... am no expert but this maybe acceptable behaviour for a server os but not for a modern desktop operating system.. | 17:04 |
| Bazylot | expunge, thx | 17:04 |
| eeee | MiraCZ: you need to use cp -r (for recursiveness) | 17:04 |
| expunge | Guest84259: sr0 is probably your CD drive | 17:04 |
| annoymouse | How big does the / partition need to be if I'm going to be using a /home partition (and my USB is 8GB)? | 17:05 |
| expunge | Guest84259: you can probably ignore the errors until there's an actual problem | 17:05 |

| MiraCZ | eeee: There is a problem, it copies the folder also, so it's minecraft/ftbg | 17:07 |
| antimist | second time it happens, and I apologize | 17:07 |
| MiraCZ | but I want content of ftbg in minecraft | 17:07 |
| Guest84259 | expunge: I have a problem ... I see fstab. If I am not mistaken, it talks of problem on line 14. fstab ends on line 12 | 17:07 |

| someguy | Yo. I'm having trouble autostarting a GUI program that requires sudo. Can anyone help me? (http://askubuntu.com/questions/514209/auto-starting-a-gui-application-that-requires-sudo) | 17:07 |
| expunge | annoymouse: 5GB? | 17:07 |
| antimist | someguy: use gksu | 17:08 |
| MonkeyDust | annoymouse how big is your HDD? | 17:08 |
| annoymouse | MonkeyDust: 8GB | 17:08 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, you don't want to go that small | 17:08 |
| someguy | How so antimist? | 17:08 |
| expunge | annoymouse: that's enough | 17:08 |
| MonkeyDust | annoymouse that's a USB stick? | 17:08 |
| RobbieCrash | annoymouse what data are you storing not on your root partitiion? Where are /home /var and /usr? | 17:08 |
| annoymouse | MonkeyDust: Yes. My real HDD is 750GB | 17:08 |
| expunge | academic... 5GB is enough, and he has 8 | 17:09 |
| annoymouse | RobbieCrash: I was planning on only having / and /home | 17:09 |
| annoymouse | expunge: Do I really need that much? | 17:09 |
| RobbieCrash | storing /home on an 8GB stick is dicey. | 17:09 |
| MonkeyDust | annoymouse ok, guess i missed somethoing, what are you planning to do? | 17:09 |
| expunge | annoymouse: 5? Probably near that, yes | 17:09 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, why are you worrying about partitions for a 8GB USB stick??? | 17:09 |
| eeee | MiraCZ: cp -r /home/bod/ftbg/* /home/bod/McMyAdmin/Minecraft/ | 17:09 |
| annoymouse | MonkeyDust: I'm installing Ubuntu onto a 8GB USB | 17:09 |
| expunge | annoymouse: the less you install, the less you need, LXDE takes less space than Unity/GNOME | 17:09 |
| MiraCZ | thank you, eeee, now I trully love you :) | 17:09 |
| annoymouse | ObrienDave: People have been telling me to make partitions! lol | 17:09 |
| timevirus | lol | 17:10 |
| eeee | MiraCZ: then type rm -r /home/bod/McMyAdmin/Minecraft/ftbg (to remove the folder) | 17:10 |
| MiraCZ | I want to keep it, just in case :) | 17:10 |
| expunge | annoymouse: it's nice to have / and swap, the rest are very optional | 17:10 |
| eeee | MiraCZ: np :) | 17:10 |
| RobbieCrash | annoymouse I've got a few linux server installs on 6GB partitions, but all the big directories are on hdd. Like /var and /home. | 17:10 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, because we thought you were installing to a USB DRIVE | 17:10 |
| expunge | MiraCZ: rmdir is safer, it removes only empty directories | 17:10 |
| annoymouse | ObrienDave: I though I said it was a stick, but sorry if I didnt | 17:10 |
| expunge | and rsync can be easily resumed, whereas cp cannot be | 17:10 |
| expunge | annoymouse: doesn't matter if it's a stick | 17:10 |
| annoymouse | ObrienDave: So just / partition? | 17:10 |
| expunge | storage is storage | 17:10 |
| annoymouse | But it's smaller | 17:11 |
| MonkeyDust | annoymouse https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent#Making_partitions | 17:11 |
| expunge | annoymouse: just / is fine, but swap can be very useful | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | RobbieCrash: same, as well as /tmp. Works well | 17:11 |
| expunge | swap can be in a file, however | 17:11 |
| annoymouse | expunge: I have 8GB of RAM, I doubt I'll need /swap | 17:11 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, just install it, sheesh | 17:11 |
| expunge | annoymouse: well, it factors into suspend | 17:11 |
| === anmisto is now known as antimist_1 | ||
| expunge | and it's useful as expendable partition space, but perhaps not in your specific situation | 17:12 |

| antimist | to my user account | 17:13 |
| expunge | antimist: does it ever work? | 17:13 |
| ObrienDave | annoymouse, you DON'T need partitions on a 8GB stick, jeez louise | 17:13 |
| expunge | RobbieCrash: doesn't matter | 17:13 |
| expunge | you don't need more than one on any storage medium | 17:13 |
| antimist | expunge: used to before today | 17:13 |
| * ObrienDave means separate | 17:14 | |
| RobbieCrash | expunge I get that, I'm thinking about usage patterns. If it's a server install, it's less likely that you're going to load up your home dir and kill writes to / | 17:14 |
| expunge | antimist: in this install? | 17:14 |
| antimist | expunge: yup, used to work but all of a sudden it stopped | 17:14 |
| antimist | I can still use an external mouse though | 17:15 |
| expunge | RobbieCrash: there's no difference | 17:15 |
| someguy | Can anyone help me autostarting a GUI program that requires sudo? More info here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/514209/auto-starting-a-gui-application-that-requires-sudo | 17:15 |
| expunge | antimist: does it show up in xinput --list? | 17:15 |
| expunge | someone: gksu? | 17:15 |
| RobbieCrash | So, less of a need to partition things. But on a desktop install, I'd avoid keeping /home and /var on an 8GB stick as I'm way more likely to save stuff to my home dir permanently. | 17:15 |
| antimist | checking now | 17:15 |
| RobbieCrash | expunge there's no difference between desktop and server usage patterns? | 17:16 |

| antimist | it comes up as Alps Dualpoint Touchpad | 17:17 |

| MonkeyDust | beginners always want to do the hardest and most complex things | 17:18 |
| expunge | someone: you only need to add it to /etc/sudoers if you don't want to type in the password | 17:18 |
| eeee | someguy: sudo visudo then add this <username> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: <program name> | 17:18 |
| someguy | eeee, I've already added it to the sudoers, I'll now add it to the profile thingie | 17:19 |

| ac | someguy: yea | 17:42 |
| someguy | ac, as far as I know, that file doesn't allow for GUI programs? | 17:42 |
| ac | thats the one I forgot :( | 17:42 |

| user____1 | Hey everyone, I'm having trouble setting my locale in Ubuntu 14.04. | 17:42 |
| someguy | ac, I guess.. I'll try, but people told me it would not work with GUI in ubuntuforums.. Anyway, the <password> after "echo" is my acc password, right? | 17:43 |
| khildin | Sam_Sully, chmod +x <script.sh> then sudo ./script.sh | 17:43 |
| Dramors | Why would he sudo some random script? | 17:44 |
| someguy | something weird is happening | 17:44 |
| Dramors | Unless you know exactly what the script does and you're required to run it as root, don't use sudo | 17:44 |
| khildin | He should be carefull if he doesn't know what the script does... sure... | 17:44 |
| ac | someguy: yes the password that you enter for sudo command, for running a GUI program you should set variable called "DISPLAY" default display is :0.0 I think you can put this command in script : export DISPLAY=:0.0 | 17:45 |
| someguy | ac, so I just add that command in the rc.local file? | 17:45 |
| someguy | ac, as a stand-alone line? | 17:46 |
| expunge | you can just specify it inline if it's a one-liner: DISPLAY=:0 foo | 17:46 |
| jorrit | C | 17:46 |
| expunge | ps aux | grep X will give you the precise number/s | 17:46 |
| ac | someguy: its better you write an script that has export command + vpn gui runner and put "sh /path/to/script" in that rc.local | 17:47 |
| someguy | expunge, are you talking to me? | 17:47 |
| someguy | hum | 17:47 |
| expunge | someguy: yup | 17:47 |
| ActionParsnip | someguy: is there a possibility to run a script when the vpn is created? | 17:47 |
| someguy | expunge, You're saying I should add the command "echo <PASSWORD> | /path/to/vpn | DISPLAY=:0" to the rc.local? | 17:48 |
| someguy | ActionParsnip, I've no clue whatsoever | 17:48 |
| someguy | ActionParsnip, what do you mean "when the vpn is created"? | 17:48 |
| ac | someguy: you can do that but the last "|" isnt a syntax error?? | 17:49 |
| someguy | ac, probably? | 17:49 |
| ac | someguy: As I know you should set the display first... | 17:50 |
| ac | but I'm not sure about | 17:50 |
| someguy | ac, should I just add it in line then? like this: " DISPLAY=:0 echo <PASSWORD> | /path/to/vpn " | 17:50 |
| someguy | hum ok | 17:50 |
| ac | "|" this sign | 17:50 |
| Sp00n_ | s | 17:50 |
| Sp00n_ | test irc | 17:51 |

| ac | someguy: I mean is it really doing the command you wrote? | 17:58 |
| DBoyz | ac: * | 17:58 |
| DBoyz | ac: uh no | 17:58 |
| === ac is now known as rrman | ||
| someguy | ac, How am I supposed to know? It's not doing what I pretended, but maybe what we wrote is wrong | 17:58 |
| DBoyz | it just happened all of a sudden | 17:59 |
| rrman | someguy: you can try with a simple command like "echo 123>/home/<USERNAME>/123" | 17:59 |
| someguy | rrman, I don't understand why I can't just add the command "sudo /path" to the autostart thingie | 18:00 |
| rrman | DBoyz: The problem is actually the config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf i ll take a look if there is any way to correct it | 18:00 |
| someguy | rrman, since it's already been added to the sudoers | 18:00 |
| rrman | someguy: what is added to sudoers? | 18:01 |
| CoolApps | Image of this odd screen: http://i.imgur.com/nPYvjCP.jpg | 18:01 |
| MonkeyDust | CoolApps i wasnt able to run 14.04 either, online research showed out, it was a fan handling problem in 14.04, so i returned to 12.04 and run 14.04 as a virtual machine | 18:01 |
| eeee | someguy: did you add the command after "exit 0" in rc.local? | 18:01 |
| DBoyz | rrman: okay. will renaming the file help? | 18:01 |
| someguy | rrman, the VPN client | 18:01 |
| rrman | eeee: good point | 18:01 |
| someguy | eeee, no, I added before | 18:01 |
| kristenbb | can I please get some help to install ubuntu with a nvidia card ? it's the third install that i'm doing and i keep getting a black screen or an error message before the login screen comes in. | 18:01 |
| rrman | someguy: your command in rc.local should return exit status add a & at end | 18:01 |
| someguy | eeee, I mean, line X: command I added, line X+1 exit 0 | 18:01 |
| rrman | someguy: what the ?! before??? it ends every thing!!!!!!!!!! | 18:02 |
| CoolApps | That's an unfortunate. | 18:02 |
| someguy | lol CoolApps | 18:02 |
| someguy | loled | 18:02 |
| rrman | DBoyz: i m looking for it | 18:02 |
| DBoyz | rrman: okay thanks | 18:03 |
| someguy | kristenbb, what I would do: unplug the nvidia thingie and plug it after installing | 18:03 |
| OerHeks | kristenbb, what nvidia card? is it dual gpu? | 18:03 |
| someguy | kristenbb, but I'm a complet moron, so don't do that | 18:03 |
| CoolApps | Looks like I will need to leave it as it is for now, I have enough things to do. XD | 18:03 |
| someguy | rrman, what? | 18:03 |
| someguy | rrman, the exit 0 should come last, right? | 18:04 |
| rrman | someguy: ye i thought you added first :/ | 18:04 |
| someguy | rrman, I added the command before the exit 0.. that is, exit 0 is "X+1", if X is the line number at which I wrote the command | 18:05 |
| rrman | DBoyz: try this command: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg " it should reconfig it | 18:05 |
| rrman | someguy: ok just got it wrong :( so can you write the command you entered it needs change | 18:05 |
| someguy | goddamn it.. Why is it so hard to add something to the autostart up! | 18:05 |
| someguy | rrman, what? | 18:06 |
| someguy | rrman, ah ok, wait | 18:06 |
| rrman | someguy: actually its not | 18:06 |
| someguy | rrman, export DISPLAY=:0.0 ; echo <PASSWORD> | /path/vpn | 18:06 |
| rrman | someguy: write the command you entered | 18:06 |
| rrman | so can you copy this to a simple file and give it 777 perm ? | 18:07 |
| someguy | Shouldn't I be able to go to the "startup applications" thingie, and write the command "sudo /path/tovpn"? | 18:07 |
| DBoyz | rrman: there's a lot of dconf-WARNING failed to commit changes to dconf could not connect connection refused | 18:07 |
| rrman | someguy: didnt understand what you said :) just copy the command to a file | 18:08 |
| rrman | and put this except that in rc.local : "sh /path/to/commmandfile" | 18:09 |
| someguy | rrman, hum.. ok | 18:09 |
| DBoyz | rrman: I guess it did not turn out well | 18:09 |
| eeee | someguy: if you type echo <password> | /path/to/vpn in a terminal, does it work? | 18:09 |
| someguy | eeee, no | 18:10 |
| someguy | lol | 18:10 |
| eeee | what's the error | 18:10 |
| rrman | someguy: :| | 18:10 |
| someguy | bash: path/: No such file or directory | 18:11 |
| Alanbitsch | i cant see icons on the top bar :( | 18:11 |
| Alanbitsch | http://i59.tinypic.com/wi95is.jpg | 18:11 |
| rrman | eeee: did you mean "echo <PSWD> | sudo /p/vpn ? | 18:11 |
| someguy | which is weird, because that path works if I do sudo /path/ | 18:11 |
| Alanbitsch | how can i fix it? | 18:11 |
| Alanbitsch | http://i59.tinypic.com/wi95is.jpg | 18:11 |

| awygle | hi all. what's the best way to serve in-house packages to our office network? should i set up a PPA or is a "normal" apt server good enough? can someone point at some documentation for doing this remotely (i.e., repository is not on the same computer that will be installing the packages)? | 18:11 |
| eeee | which wouldn't work i guess, but rc.local runs as root so its ok | 18:11 |
| someguy | AH WAIT | 18:11 |
| someguy | my path is wrong | 18:11 |
| someguy | I forgot the first / | 18:11 |
| eeee | someguy: yeah | 18:11 |
| someguy | let me try | 18:11 |
| someguy | well, it runs | 18:12 |
| someguy | but it asks me for the password | 18:12 |
| rrman | eeee: well it needs sudo ?? (the vpn) | 18:12 |
| eeee | someguy: try it in a root shell if it doesn't work, type sudo -i | 18:12 |
| Alanbitsch | i cant see icons on the top bar, how can i fix it? | 18:12 |
| Alanbitsch | http://i59.tinypic.com/wi95is.jpg | 18:12 |
| rrman | someguy: password of what? | 18:12 |
| someguy | rrman, it needs sudo, but I added the program to the sudoers already, it shouldn't ask for it? | 18:12 |
| eeee | someguy: try this /path/to/vpn <<< password | 18:12 |
| someguy | rrman, if I do /path/to/vpn it doesn't ask for pw | 18:13 |
| someguy | eeee, it doesn't ask for pwd that way | 18:13 |
| eeee | if you use <<< ? | 18:13 |
| someguy | eeee, ah wait, I didn't try that.. I meant /path/to/vpn only doesn't ask for pwd. | 18:13 |
| rrman | someguy: im not sure about sudoers list you can give it sudo access when you run it its easier | 18:13 |
| someguy | eeee, actually | 18:13 |
| praeconium | Whenever I try to override AMD commands I get 'ERROR - X needs to be running to perform AMD Overdrive(TM) commands' but I have monitor up and running. What to do? | 18:14 |
| someguy | eeee, rrman , ignore everything I said.. it's asking for pw again, for some reason | 18:14 |
| rrman | echo <SUDO PASSWORD> | sudo /vpn | 18:14 |
| someguy | it didn't ask like 1h ago | 18:14 |
| eeee | someguy: the sudo ticket timed out maybe? | 18:14 |
| someguy | Actually, I'm a moron | 18:15 |
| DBoyz | hm? | 18:15 |
| someguy | sec please | 18:15 |
| eeee | why are you sending the sudo password to the vpn, btw? | 18:15 |
| someguy | OK, what I MEAN IS: | 18:15 |
| rrman | echo <SUDO PASSWORD> | sudo /vpn this should work?! | 18:15 |
| someguy | If I run this: "sudo /path/tovpn" --> it does not ask for password | 18:15 |

| kostkon | DBoyz, when you finish just sudo reboot anyways even if you've given the unity reset cmd | 18:59 |

| OerHeks | !nomodeset | kristenbb maybe this command solves this issue | 19:00 |
| ubottu | kristenbb maybe this command solves this issue: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen.

| kostkon | DBoyz, what version of ubuntu | 19:03 |
| DBoyz | 14.04 | 19:03 |
| Boscop | i did "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" after that, my computer only boots to a black screen. why? | 19:03 |
| kristenbb | OerHeks: nope it doesn't change anything. And the link you gave mentioned that it would work with nouveau, not the proprietary driver | 19:04 |
| kostkon | DBoyz, when did this happen | 19:04 |
| DBoyz | By the way I installed Intel graphics and I've been this has been happening after the next boot | 19:04 |
| Pinkamena_D | when I press start to get the unity search menu thingy and search for something, it seems to search "from the bottom up" for example, first files and folders appear, then music, then programs.

| kostkon | DBoyz, you mean you used the intel graphics driver installer to install a newer version of the driver? | 19:05 |
| OerHeks | kristenbb, oh, pre-nvidiadriver solution, sorry, then i don't know, and find no solutions sofar | 19:05 |

| filip__ | Hi guys, i have installed Lubuntu 14.04 not so long ago, and today i have tried to install Elementary OS alongside it. Since the dualboot didn't work, i've deleted the partition which had Elementary OS installed. I've done this from Lubuntu using GParted. | 19:14 |
| filip__ | And now i'm left with this unallocated space (30.94GB). What i want to do now is merge unallocated space with my Lubuntu partition which is sda1 (ext4). | 19:14 |
| filip__ | How do i do this in a simple way, without losing any data, especially on sda5 (ntfs), because i have my personal files in there? | 19:14 |
| filip__ | Here's a screenshot: http://i57.tinypic.com/2i03l3m.png | 19:14 |
| Wash_Jones | Any idea what's up? | 19:14 |
| kristenbb | OerHeks: i rebooted after dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, the screen is still black after the splash screen and before the login | 19:14 |
| Boscop | Beldar: i did "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" | 19:14 |
| Boscop | from 12.04 | 19:15 |
| Boscop | following this guide: http://www.namhuy.net/2853/upgrade-ubuntu-12-04-lts-ubuntu-14-04-lts.html | 19:15 |
| Beldar | filip__, Resize the extended. | 19:15 |
| filip__ | It wont delete any of my data? | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | kristenbb, maybe there is still an xorg.conf file there. login with ctrl-alt-f2 again: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 19:16 |
| trism | kraiskil: yeah most everything that doesn't have a -dbg package in debian gets symbols stripped and put on ddebs | 19:16 |
| Beldar | Boscop, Are you backed up? Were there ant errors in the upgrade? | 19:16 |
| kristenbb | OerHeks: there is no such file | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | :-( | 19:17 |
| Beldar | filip__, The extended is sda2 no no dta loss, however being backed up is your best insurance. | 19:17 |

| Boscop | Beldar: can i do a net install from some other live distro? | 19:19 |
| Beldar | Boscop, The fix if there is any will take longer than a install | 19:19 |
| DBoyz | kostkon: link above | 19:20 |
| kristenbb | OerHeks: what else could i try ? | 19:20 |
| Beldar | Boscop, No net install is a boot, however you can boot it from grub if you have a working OS using it. | 19:20 |
| filip__ | Should i do it via live cd? | 19:20 |
| Beldar | Boscop, You have no install medium right? | 19:21 |
| Boscop | Beldar: usb pen drive? | 19:21 |
| Beldar | filip__, Yes. | 19:21 |
| OerHeks | kristenbb, i am out of ideas, not sure if an updated nvidia ppa is a solution | 19:21 |
| kostkon | DBoyz, (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) hmm | 19:21 |
| filip__ | Thanks for the answer. | 19:21 |
| kostkon | DBoyz, is it a hybrid laptop? | 19:21 |
| Beldar | Boscop, why then question mark, I can't read you mind. | 19:21 |
| Boscop | Beldar: if i try to start one of the previous versions, like 2.3 it works | 19:22 |
| Boscop | but not the new one | 19:22 |
| Boscop | Beldar: can i fix it from tehre? | 19:22 |
| kristenbb | OerHeks: but at *least* it should be able to get back to the way it was, with nouveau. it was working right after the fresh installation, then i switch to the proprietary and it stopped working | 19:22 |
| v4rp1ng | why is ubuntu mounting a lvm at /media/%user ? | 19:23 |
| Beldar | Boscop, Boot that ans run from the desktop sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get -f install | 19:23 |
| kostkon | DBoyz, and probably the /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p will fail | 19:23 |
| DBoyz | kostkon: oh. my laptop died so I took out it's hard disk and plug it into a desktop | 19:23 |
| Beldar | Boscop, If you can fix none of us can say yes or no. | 19:23 |
| Boscop | what does -f do? | 19:23 |

| timevirus | swipe-on swapoff | 19:56 |
| k1l | Filip__: the lines with the key symbol are locked. they are locked because the swap partition is used by default even for the live cd. so just make a right click and choose not to use that swap/unmount | 19:56 |

| reecardo | ah, so I should upgrade? | 19:56 |
| Adlez | Wafflejock..what other programs? | 19:56 |

| kostkon | david38400, if you mean your playlist from last time, i'm guessing that's smthing you need to configure in audacity | 19:57 |
| Adlez | wafflejock..thanks | 19:58 |
| ObrienDave | Audacity does not do playlists. audacious does | 19:58 |
| kostkon | david38400, audacious* | 19:58 |
| kostkon | ObrienDave, you're right | 19:58 |
| Galaxor | Hmm. Neither thunar nor nautilus on machine B can access davs:// webdav urls. Machine A can do it. Both machines are running ubuntu 14.04.1. I'm thinking this might be a gvfs thing? Is there a plugin I have to install or something? | 19:58 |
| * ObrienDave loves audacity ;P | 19:59 | |
| Adlez | I cannot understand much though | 19:59 |
| wafflejock | Adlez: you should be able to just use the commands on that page to test the mic is working | 19:59 |
| Adlez | ok | 19:59 |
| wafflejock | Adlez: arecord -f dat -d 20 -D hw:0,0 test.wav | 19:59 |

| Filip___ | The keys are still there, however, i do have an option to unmount my ntfs partition wherew my personal files are stored. | 20:01 |
| wafflejock | Adlez: np check out | 20:01 |

| Filip___ | *where | 20:01 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 20:01 |

| wafflejock | Adlez: if you need to debug further you might also want to grab, sudo apt-get install alsa-tools, which has alsamixer that will let you tweak the sound inputs/outputs from a terminal based "GUI" | 20:02 |

| Beldar | Filip___, WE are going to need you to post screen shots everytime it seems. | 20:09 |
| Beldar | loa, Sleeo does not unmount the OS drives. | 20:10 |
| Beldar | Sleep* | 20:10 |
| Filip___ | It's the same, I've done what you said, I've clicked "swapof", and now i have the option to unmount my ntfs partition even though there is a key in the left side of that partition. | 20:11 |
| Beldar | loa, Actually partitions | 20:11 |
| Beldar | Filip___, You need all partition inside the extended unmounted to resize it. | 20:12 |
| loa | Beldar, i meen 1) unmount all partitions 2) send command to sleep drive | 20:12 |
| Beldar | loa, You are not really making sense. | 20:14 |

| Filip___ | Yes, that is my end goal, but i want to achieve that without losing any data. By the way, should i do it like this, from left to right? http://imagebin.ca/1XcuiN9hSFZ0/Screenshotfrom2014-08-21201637.png | 20:18 |
| loa | Beldar, yes. looks like i found solution | 20:18 |
| loa | Beldar, hdparm -Y | 20:19 |
| Beldar | Filip___, Yep run that then resize sda1 into that space. | 20:19 |

| Beldar | Filip___, Yes now click the green check mark to run it, | 20:25 |
| samthewildone | is there a way in which I can just have the normal ctrl + v ? | 20:25 |
| expunge | samthewildone: yes | 20:25 |
| expunge | samthewildone: it's really more for CTRL+c, which is traditionally for cancellation on Unix systems | 20:25 |
| expunge | hence ctrl+SHIFT+c, and +v | 20:26 |
| samthewildone | ah | 20:26 |
| expunge | samthewildone: see gnome-terminal's prefs | 20:26 |
| k1l | samthewildone: you need to press ctrl+v+shift. same for ctrl+c+shift for copy. | 20:26 |
| samthewildone | just read about it. | 20:26 |
| samthewildone | http://superuser.com/questions/421463/why-does-ctrl-v-not-paste-in-bash-linux-shell | 20:26 |
| k1l | samthewildone: the problem is that ctrl+c is already another terminal command and will stop the process. | 20:26 |
| expunge | I've used terms that had no problem having both CTRL+c for cancel and CTRL+c for copy, it just varies | 20:26 |
| samthewildone | makes sense | 20:26 |

| Alanbitsch | oh ok :( | 20:31 |
| Alanbitsch | so | 20:31 |
| Alanbitsch | i must download 13.10 | 20:31 |
| k1l | Alanbitsch: if you dont want to upgrade that often stay on LTS in the first place | 20:31 |
| Alanbitsch | LTS? | 20:31 |
| Alanbitsch | im new at linux | 20:31 |
| k1l | !lts | Alanbitsch | 20:31 |

Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) | 20:31 |
| expunge | Alanbitsch: FWIW, avoiding upgrading is folly, so I wouldn't even factor that in | 20:32 |
| k1l | well, if you are new then dont install outdated versions in the first place :) | 20:32 |
| Alanbitsch | i didnt know that a month ago xd | 20:32 |
| ObrienDave | 13.04 was EOL a month ago | 20:33 |

| TheNet | expunge: what *should* I call it? | 20:34 |
| expunge | TheNet: no I'm saying, you can just take it out of quotes | 20:34 |
| TheNet | expunge: the quotes are part of the actual tmux command though... | 20:35 |

| JokeOnYou77 | How do I map a user's home partition to a different drive? I'm setting up a shared system and I'd like my home to be on the ssd but there's not enough room for everyone else there too so I'd like to map the home for all new users to a second drive. | 21:16 |
| === g_ is now known as Guest50204 | ||
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: then just have your home directory on there | 21:17 |
| JokeOnYou77 | Ben64, ? | 21:18 |
| Ben64 | move your home to the ssd, then have that mounted as /home/you | 21:18 |

| th3host | ty | 21:19 |
| eeee | np | 21:19 |
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: no... | 21:20 |
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: the ssd will be /home/Jokes | 21:20 |
| cnap | hello I am having a tiny issue | 21:21 |
| JokeOnYou77 | Ben64, that's what i said... | 21:21 |
| jhutchins | cnap: What did you try to do? How did you try to do it? What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? | 21:21 |
| cnap | I am using ubuntu 14.04 and apache2 didnt seem to have a conf.d folder | 21:21 |
| cipherson | <decwrl> you could just disable post-install conf | 21:21 |
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: it is not what you said | 21:21 |
| cipherson | <decwrl> and figure out where it sets that option and script it | 21:22 |
| JokeOnYou77 | Ben64, ok. On the SSD /home/Jokes, on the other drive is /home and everyone else will be in /home | 21:22 |
| decwrl | <cipherson> How to I do that? Is it part of apt-get? | 21:22 |
| cipherson | ummm checking | 21:23 |
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: well /home/Jokes is where the ssd will be mounted, but those directories won't be on there | 21:23 |
| Bazyl | cnap, how were you looking for conf.d directory ? | 21:23 |
| Ben64 | JokeOnYou77: follow this guide, just replace /home in any commands or whatever with /home/Jokes https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 21:23 |
| cipherson | there is also a way to script apt-get answers, just trying to find it | 21:23 |

| streulma | hello, what is Power Off Retract Count and UDMA CRC Error Rate ? | 21:24 |
| JokeOnYou77 | Ben64, ok | 21:24 |
| cipherson | <decwrl> you could try: export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -y install [packagename] | 21:24 |
| cipherson | that should ignore the interactive install but then when you first run the application it may want the answer | 21:25 |
| decwrl | <cipherson> I'll try that. Sounds like the best way to go. | 21:25 |
| cipherson | <decwrl> still trying to find the script way for you | 21:25 |
| decwrl | It's only one option that gets set in /etc/default/kdump-tools, so I can just sed that after installation if there's no way to force the answer into the installation process. | 21:26 |
| Bazyl | cnap, try "sudo find / -name conf.d" | 21:27 |
| beandog | actually it'd be find /etc -type d -name conf.d | 21:28 |
| beandog | and you don't need sudo | 21:28 |

| mrob | I'm trying to use a custom EDID with KMS | 21:57 |
| mrob | I created the valid EDID file and added drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=DVI-I-1:1680x1050.bin to my grub command line | 21:57 |
| mrob | It's recognized fine in X but when I switch the the console it's ignored | 21:57 |
| daftykins | do you mean TTYs? | 21:58 |
| daftykins | specifying an EDID to X won't give TTY's a native resolution | 21:58 |
| daftykins | that's completely different | 21:58 |
| mrob | Pressing control+alt+F2 | 21:58 |
| mrob | To switch to TTY, and my custom EDID is ignored | 21:58 |
| mrob | I'm not specifying it to X, I'm specifying it to the kernel | 21:58 |
| daftykins | oic, no idea then | 21:58 |
| mrob | Maybe something to do with initramfs? | 21:59 |
| MonkeyDust | mrob is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/144088/how-to-load-edid-firmware-with-drm-kms-helper | 21:59 |

| MonkeyDust | mrob i was too fast, it doesnt offer a solution | 22:00 |
| mrob | From dmesg: [drm:edid_load] *ERROR* Requesting EDID firmware "1680x1050.bin" failed (err=-12) | 22:01 |
| mrob | But it clearly gets loaded later because xrandr shows it correctly | 22:01 |

| expunge | timevirus: file manager is dumb, I'd say | 22:29 |
| eeee | YokoBR: you have to specify the partition | 22:29 |

| Johnny_b2 | hello | 22:46 |
| Mio-chan | expunge, I researched a bit and saw some success with having Ubuntu share the kernel w/Chrome OS :P | 22:46 |
| jmunsch | I am comfortable with python, okay with bash, and wanting to learn c++ more in depth.... beyond arduino level | 22:46 |
| Johnny_b2 | How may I change the runlevel in ubuntu 12.04lts ? | 22:46 |
| Johnny_b2 | I mean to start in txt mode, with runlevel number 3 | 22:47 |
| Pici | !runlevel | 22:47 |
| ubottu | In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 22:47 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: Same way you do in any other distro. | 22:47 |
| expunge | Mio-chan: that's a little different, but if it satisfies you well done | 22:48 |
| kristenbb | can someone with a good understanding of video drivers please help me to set up my nvidia video driver ? | 22:48 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: default is 2 | 22:48 |
| rostam | HI is there an IPad simulator for ubuntu? thanks | 22:48 |
| Johnny_b2 | usr13 : I now, I mean change the runlev to txt mode | 22:49 |
| OerHeks | rostam there is no IDE to write/emulate no, great idea ! | 22:49 |
| Johnny_b2 | text mode is number 3 believe | 22:49 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: Oh. Ok. | 22:49 |
| timevirus | very good expunge its open thanks | 22:49 |
| jmunsch | Johnny_b2 : http://askubuntu.com/questions/86483/how-can-i-see-or-change-default-run-level | 22:50 |
| jmunsch | Johnny_b2 : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpstartHowto#How_do_I_change_the_runlevel.3F | 22:50 |
| timevirus | gotta write that one down...xdg-open :) | 22:50 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: What are you trying to do? | 22:50 |
| Johnny_b2 | the /etc/inittab don't exist | 22:50 |
| Heinrich | hi | 22:51 |
| Mio-chan | expunge, well I'll just preorder the new chromebook, I'll screencap myself doing it so others can learn :) | 22:51 |
| Mio-chan | expunge, in the case I break my system I'll find a way to fix it xD | 22:52 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: So what is it you want to do? | 22:52 |
| * Johnny_b2 usr13 I said u before, I want start in text mode nothing X | 22:53 | |
| jmunsch | Johnny_b2 : please look at the links that i provided you. | 22:53 |
| kristenbb | can someone with a good understanding of video drivers please help me to set up my nvidia video driver ? i am failing to install ubuntu for the 4th time :( | 22:53 |
| jmunsch | Johnny_b2 : is this what you were looking for? | 22:54 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: Edit /etc/default/grub | 22:54 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: Change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" | 22:54 |
| ewa | hi | 22:54 |
| aq | Anybody here dual booting Ubuntu and WIndows 8(.1)? I turned off fast start-up but Ubuntu 14.04 still can't mount the drive | 22:55 |
| Johnny_b2 | http://askubuntu.com/questions/86483/how-can-i-see-or-change-default-run-level | 22:55 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: So how far did you get with it? | 22:55 |
| theadmin | aq: After turning off fast startup, shutdown Windows. | 22:55 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: What have you done so far? | 22:55 |
| aq | theadmin: I did. Multiple times, complete shut-downs | 22:56 |
| eeee | aq: try restarting instead | 22:56 |
| kristenbb | usr13: up until the time where i need to either do apt-get upgrade, or to choose the proprietary driver. That's when the reboot makes the login disappear | 22:56 |
| theadmin | aq: Bah, that's odd. What's the error you get? | 22:56 |
| eeee | aq: what's the error? | 22:56 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: ... and then do sudo update-grub | 22:56 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: You have 14.04 installed? | 22:57 |
| kristenbb | usr13: yes, but i cant log in | 22:57 |
| ewa | ask who understand free download iso mac os ? | 22:57 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 22:57 |
| * Johnny_b2 usr13 but after I may start X with startx ? | 22:57 | |
| usr13 | kristenbb: What is on the screen now? | 22:58 |
| kristenbb | usr13: a black screen | 22:58 |
| aq | theadmin, eeee : will be able to tell you in a second, need to reboot into Ubuntu first | 22:58 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: lightdm | 22:58 |
| usr13 | Johnny_b2: sudo service lightdm start | 22:58 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: Does it say login: ? | 22:59 |
| aq | theadmin, eeee : http://pastebin.com/pEbLkwCs | 22:59 |
| kristenbb | usr13: i understand that you're trying to logically understand what's wrong, and i'll gladly try to help you help me, but you'll soon figure out that's it's not an easy problem, many people here have tried and failed to help me | 22:59 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: If not, Ctrl-Alt-F6 | 22:59 |
| kristenbb | usr13: no it doesn't, and i do have a cli | 22:59 |
| kristenbb | usr13: and the packages are up to date | 22:59 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 23:00 |
| === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan | ||
| usr13 | kristenbb: Or first, see if it exists. ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 23:00 |
| kristenbb | usr13: no it doesn't, but there are some backups from earlier tries | 23:01 |
| samthewildone | can I delete my .cache folder ? | 23:01 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: nvidia- #Hit tab key couple times, see what is there. | 23:01 |
| aq | theadmin, eeee: The error message is incorrect, though. Windows is NOT hibernated, I just did a shutdown and bootup. | 23:02 |
| kristenbb | usr13: nothing, i have uninstalled all nvidia packages with apt-get remove nvidia* | 23:02 |
| eeee | aq: try to reboot from windows, not shutdown | 23:02 |
| eeee | shutdown uses the fastboot, restarting doesnt | 23:03 |
| usr13 | kristenbb: lspci |grep VGA #Tell me what it says | 23:03 |
| theadmin | eeee: They disabled fast startup | 23:03 |
| eeee | theadmin: or they think they did | 23:03 |
| eeee | or who knows, just give it a shot | 23:04 |
| aq | eeee: Same situation. I am pretty sure that I disabled fast startup | 23:05 |
| aq | Is there a way to force the drive to mount? | 23:07 |
| eeee | yeah | 23:07 |
| eeee | but if it's still hibernated.. | 23:07 |
| eeee | maybe if you delete the hiberfil.sys from windows ? | 23:07 |
| aq | Where is it located? | 23:07 |
| eeee | C:\ | 23:07 |
| aq | eeee, No such file. | 23:08 |
| theadmin | aq: Try running chkdsk/f from Windows | 23:09 |
| theadmin | Might fix it | 23:09 |
| aq | theadmin, told me that the drive cannot be used because it's in use by another process and asked me if I want to check the disk during the next bootup | 23:11 |
| aq | I just pressed yes, should I do a cold reboot? | 23:11 |
| theadmin | aq: Restart and boot into Windows now | 23:11 |
| theadmin | aq: It will boot longer than usual (that's normal, it's a filesystem check) | 23:11 |
| aq | Could it be caused by me disabling secure boot? | 23:13 |
| eeee | no, unlikely | 23:13 |
| aq | Drive remains unmountable after chkdsk. This is rather frustrating. Could be anything. Grub doesn't recognize the drive, either. I have to basically do the whole boot option thing over bios/uefi | 23:16 |
| aq | When I want to boot up Windows 8.1, that is | 23:17 |
| eeee | aq: try to shutdown windows with shutdown -s -f -t 00 | 23:19 |
| Johnnyb2 | hello | 23:21 |
| * Johnnyb2 I'm from txt mode with irssi | 23:21 | |
| Johnnyb2 | thx | 23:21 |
| aq | eeee: No luck. Think I will give up on this matter. Thank you and theadmin, too. | 23:23 |
| theadmin | aq: Sorry I couldn't help. I don't really dual-boot, never have and hopefully never will. You may consider running one of the operating systems in Virtualbox, perhaps? | 23:24 |
| timevirus | VirtualBox is even harder to work with | 23:25 |
| timevirus | !! | 23:25 |
| timevirus | lol | 23:25 |
| pzn | I'll install xen on ubuntu 14.04; my machine has intel xeon. xen package name is xen-hypervisor-4.4-amd64 will that "amd64" conflict with "intel xeon"? | 23:25 |
| daftykins | pzn: Xen isn't the main supported virt tech, you should try KVM | 23:26 |
| timevirus | KVM? | 23:27 |
| timevirus | hmmm | 23:27 |
| timevirus | for the cli? | 23:27 |
| timevirus | scary | 23:27 |
| aq | theadmin, No worries mate, your help is much appreciated. The whole issue isn't really a deal breaker, but annoying nonetheless. Oh shwells :) | 23:28 |
| erebus^ | is there a way to permanently (as far as os goes) change/hide/fake my mac address? | 23:28 |
| timevirus | sq | 23:28 |
| timevirus | there is an app out there called 'Boot-Repair-Disk' maybe you look into that and see if it applies | 23:28 |
| timevirus | its worked for me | 23:29 |
| pzn | daftykins, timevirus: if I already have 18 machines running (some windows ones) and I will migrate them to a new hardware, I tought about installing the same virt tech (xen) and just copy the config and the disks. do you think it worths "converting" all of them to kvm? | 23:29 |
| daftykins | no idea. | 23:29 |
| timevirus | beyond me too | 23:29 |
| daftykins | i haven't used Xen since 8.04 was new | 23:30 |
| timevirus | aq* ^^ | 23:32 |
| theadmin | timevirus: VBox isn't hard at all. I use it all the time, it's easy and intuitive. | 23:32 |
| timevirus | lol k | 23:32 |
| timevirus | I'll get it | 23:32 |
| timevirus | having troubles with GNS3 too | 23:32 |
| timevirus | this machine is probably straining too much for such fancy dancy stuffs | 23:33 |
| aq | timevirus: Thanks, will look into it. Did you have the same issue? | 23:33 |
| timevirus | somehting a bit similar | 23:33 |
| apollonovich | is there a reason why I can't install ruby2.1 on trusty without also getting ruby 1.9.1? | 23:35 |
| apollonovich | 1.9.1 is ancient, and I'd really rather not be stuck using it... | 23:35 |
| Adam_ActiveState | on 14.04.1 I'm getting the menu hud coming up when I'm trying to Super+Shift+[right arrow] | 23:41 |
| Adam_ActiveState | on my other computer with the exact same ubuntu, I'm getting the window to go half screen as expected | 23:41 |
| Adam_ActiveState | any idea why? | 23:41 |
| Adam_ActiveState | and any pointers for key shortcuts for unity | 23:42 |
| theadmin | Adam_ActiveState: You can see a list of key shortcuts by holding the Windows key | 23:43 |
| theadmin | Adam_ActiveState: Perhaps yours are börked, you can change them in System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts | 23:43 |
| OerHeks | hud opens with TAB, on my default system | 23:44 |
| theadmin | OerHeks: That ain't right... | 23:44 |
| Adam_ActiveState | theadmin: I haven't changed anything yet the 2 are acting differently | 23:44 |
| theadmin | Hud should be Alt | 23:44 |
| theadmin | Adam_ActiveState: Perhaps your Super key gets registered as something else? Does simply pressing it bring up the search screen? | 23:45 |
| OerHeks | * when holding win+shift | 23:45 |
| Adam_ActiveState | it seems to register the hud before registering the window sizing shortcut. on the other it's recognizing that in a different order | 23:45 |
| Adam_ActiveState | theadmin: yes, just pressing it brings up the search screen | 23:45 |
| theadmin | Adam_ActiveState: Okay I'm confused, no idea | 23:46 |
| rocky23 | ean | 23:46 |
| Flerb_ | Hi. I tried to do fortune -o on ubuntu but it says no fortunes found | 23:46 |
| Flerb_ | Is that normal? | 23:47 |
| JokeOnYou77 | If I'm moving my personal home folder to a new partition, should I put the directory with my user name in that partition, or just it's contents? | 23:48 |
| eeee | Flerb_: yes, sudo apt-get install fortune-mod | 23:48 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: The entire dir | 23:49 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: Is the mountpoint of your new partition /home or /home/you? | 23:50 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, /home/jokes | 23:50 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: Then move contents | 23:50 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: Make sure to move the hidden folders | 23:50 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, I figure it should just be the contents of the directory but I really don't want to mess this one up so I thought I'd ask | 23:51 |
| Flerb_ | eeee, oh, that is odd | 23:51 |
| Flerb_ | Why is it in the man page for fortune | 23:51 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: Also, do it as another user | 23:51 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, sudo rsync -aXS /home/jokes/. /media/home/jokes/. then change fstab to map the partition | 23:52 |
| Flerb_ | eeee, oh it was installed alright | 23:52 |
| eeee | Flerb_: good :) | 23:52 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: No no that doesn't make sense | 23:52 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, why as another user? Don't I want to do it as me to preserve ownership? And I'm just going to cp not mv. | 23:52 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 23:53 |
| rocky23 | ሀልሎ | 23:53 |
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: As another user because you don't want to have files in use while moving/copying | 23:53 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, that's why I'm using rsync It will just copy everything and not care. I guess I can do it from a live distro if you really think it will be a problem | 23:54 |
| === LapJup3 is now known as LapJup | ||
| theadmin | JokeOnYou77: Anyway, since your other partition will be mounted to /home/jokes, you don't need a "jokes" folder on that partition | 23:55 |
| JokeOnYou77 | theadmin, ok. Ty | 23:55 |
