My friend who've I've recently set up with Linux is trying to get an xbox 360 controller to work with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS running on default Unity GUI. He's googled several guides on how to get it set up, and had it mostly working before (the right thumbstick was still not recognized, nor was the d-pad, and it thought the triggers was the right thumbstick). In his attempts to install, he [00:27] installed the same repository twice, and installed the same driver twice as well. He did not make a backup before doing so. I'd like to undo that and try and work from scratch, but now it's not working at all and I don't know how to uninstall what he's done. I googled it and purged and uninstalled the apps with sudo-apt get, but when I tried to reinstall and undo the settings that broke it, it acted like the same se [00:27] ttings were still in place. I didn't try to remove the repository because I'm not sure what effects that would have (I don't have a lot of experience with those myself). If anyone could help me troubleshoot and undo, I'd be really grateful.

Should I remove the doubly-installed repository or will it have no effect? [00:38] wafflejock It was a third party repository not related to canonical (AFAIK) [00:38] guest102340: the repositoriy is where apt-get is going to look when it needs to update the cache (sudo apt-get update) but I'm not sure about if you delete a package and the location it was installed from is no longer listed in the repos [00:38] I presume it would be fine, can comment it out and see [00:39] Okay, thanks.

(warning: I've never actually tried this). If it all goes wrong, back it up and reinstall from scratch [01:46] oaulakh: or you have kde/systemsettings/brightness [01:47] means? [01:47] cool thanks , veryhappy. my only question is: i have a rather old notebook i want to speed up , it was running win xp media edition so far, the specs are: Acer Aspire 5630 Intel Centrino Duo (T5500) 1,66 Ghz 2 GB RAM Geforce Go 7300 , would you recommend ubuntu desktop or lubuntu , considering the specs ? [01:47] Anyone here can help with some PHP syntax? [01:47] Alistair: please see ##programming [01:48] thanks vm :-) [01:48] oaulakh: i already wrote what i meant, if you mean the problem with nvidia, it's sometimes stuck even when you try to change the brightness of your screen. [01:49] Hello - I'm having some troubles with mic sound quality, lots of static. I tried testing with arecord and, well I can hear okay, but the static is rather undesirable. I'm using alsamixer [01:49] Froodle: the config for unity is in your home directory somewhere. I'm betting this is why reinstalling the OS was a) unnecessary and b) didn't help. [01:50] Loshki: Yeah, I mounted /home to its own partition. I'll try digging through there. [01:50] Layton: you can use either lubuntu (lxde) which is optimized for such low-speed computers/netbooks/notebooks or xubuntu which is running with xfce, anyway you can with the right settings also run ubuntu or even ressourceful kubuntu, it's up to you. === megabit|away is now known as megabitdragon [01:51] oaulakh: i'm at least still trying to figure it out, at least on my netbook it doesn't always work the other notebook is working with it. [01:52] farmyard: I had that problem recording with recordmydeskstop, lowering the master volume way down during recording cleared up the static. [01:52] oaulakh: i figured out, when i set the brightness and send it into standby and wake it up again it's set to the new brightness, but that can't be normal. [01:52] what would you recommend if i would want to get some more speed and performance out of it compared to win xp , for media applications and text editing given the specs ? === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away [01:53] Layton: let's speak about that private [01:53] cool :) thanks [01:53] LostNva: Okay. Thanks. I'll give it a go! [01:53] oaulakh: set the brightness, send it into standby mode and wake it up and see if that changed the brightness then. [01:55] oaulakh: which surface do you use? kde? gnome? [01:55] gnome [01:55] i already read it, please don't repeat everything so fast. [01:55] ok [01:56] I am trying to figure out htop, I have a process running and I need to switch to that screen so that I can run commands under it [01:56] oaulakh: so you should be able to find the brightness settings in the options for background image or appearance [01:56] can some one tell me how this works? [01:56] oaulakh: gnome should give you an additional menu entry which should say standby [01:56] these manuals and tutorials make no sense to me, I dont know anything about any of this [01:57] yeah [01:57] Farva: htop? [01:57] yes [01:57] now? [01:57] I have a process running and I need to switch to that command line [01:57] Farva: it's a normal process viewer which is highly powerful. [01:57] I need to run commands under it [01:57] so I was told to use htop to switch to a process [01:58] but I can' t figure out how this works >.< [01:58] oaulakh: yes, now. [01:59] Farva: i don't know how you should switch to a process, i only know that you can search for processes (look in the description for the function keys) and then you can also directly kill processes. [01:59] I saw I could do that, so maybe htop is not what I need then [02:00] I have a game server running a process and I can't find a way to switch to its command line [02:00] its a java process [02:00] Farva: If you spawned it in the background and are not using that original terminal, it would be difficult to get it back. [02:01] Farva, you want a renice comand? see #5 > http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2011/09/linux-htop-examples/ [02:01] ty [02:02] Renice alters the scheduling priority of a running proces [02:03] Farva: You may need to kill the process, then restart it inside of a tmux or screen session, so that you can always run commands in it later. [02:03] OerHeks: did I mention this is my 3rd day running anything from shell? Will this give me the command line of the process being ran?

[05:37] ehi i have a question [05:37] i can ask ? [05:37] no one in room ? [05:37] mmmm [05:37] i want to know some alternative to truecrypt ecryption software ? do you have any idea ? [05:38] wtf 1600 user no one speaking ? :O [05:38] where is the vim rc file in ubuntu 14.04? [05:47] BlackDevil - There does not appear to be an alternative to Truecrypt yet. I'm still using it and we have it rolled out to workstations where I work [05:47] FreeBSDisDa5hit2 :( [05:48] but is no more secure [05:48] ubunt - there is not vimrc file by default. You can create one vim ~/.vimrc and put your configuration in there [05:48] there's no specific vulnerability [05:48] it's just no longer being maintained and may get exploited in the future [05:48] :( [05:49] and for this reason i search for an alternative :( [05:49] https://opencryptoaudit.org/ <-- as you can see, there is a lot of interest in truecrypt.

[06:01] yes [06:01] thanks [06:01] I saw that snippet but didn't see where it explicitly mentioned that's what that flag did [06:02] where does dropbox store your host details/credentials? I want to copy files to a new server without re-linking it to my dropbox account. [06:02] hello people [06:02] tac: -e specifies which remote shell (and options in the same command) to use. [06:03] I guess I don't really understand what shells have to do with what rsync is doing [06:03] tac: so if you have a special port setup fx, and don't use .ssh/config for that host, you do "rsync -e 'ssh -p 1234" [06:03] I'll keep that in mind. Thanks [06:03] you're welcome.

[08:29] hi all just wanted to ask a generic question. a network admin advised the helpdesk staff not to use a switch(ie linksys) to extend the network when ports are limited. he claim that when lots of traffic goes over a single port back to the core switch that port on the core switch can get "burned out" is that acurate on a technical level? [08:29] I'm on trusty, I get some "Failed to connect [IP : 91.189.91.13 80]" [08:29] Policymaker, Umm, isn't that what it's for? a switch or a router acting like a switch will do the same thing [08:30] jerem`, did you set a firewall by any chance disallowing traffic? [08:30] i'm trying --fix-missing [08:30] wheatthin: I didn't [08:30] well he claims that everytime a port is used in that fashion the port gets burned out [08:31] that sounds better using --fix-missing (first time I'm using apt) [08:31] lol.. how else is traffic going to flow? [08:32] Policymaker, if ANY port gets too many requests, it'll momentarily cause a DoS.. but that's just about with any networking device. [08:32] best bet would be to use something industry standard. [08:32] ok so " dead ports" on core switches has nothing to do with traffic [08:33] Policymaker: Not unless the core switch is not worth the money :) [08:33] lol is a 6500 cisco [08:34] Policymaker: Maybe the network department secretly uses sneaker-net to move the packets about, and that admin is trying to avoid the exercise :) [08:34] ok === jacques is now known as Guest99759 === JordanJ3 is now known as JordanJ2 [08:39] ok I always have some repo problem [08:39] "W: Impossible de récupérer http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/Release.gpg Échec de la connexion [IP : 91.189.92.201 80] [08:39] can I get on the commandline at the end of a preseed ?

[09:52] bluedevil is like blueman [09:52] link please [09:53] Abhijit, it's in the repos [09:54] google told me about some paid software called bluedevil [09:54] http://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/334506-bluedevil-a-new-kde-bluetooth-stack [09:54] im using free [09:55] kal_crunchbang, in that case #kde might be more helpful.

[09:58] i also use BlueMan [09:58] i have it connected but its something with paulseaudio [10:01] I"m using ubuntu 12.04 trying to upgrade to ubuntu 14.04, when I try: do-release-upgrade I get No new release found, I've did "sudo apt-get update" before trying that command, I suspect the issue comes from the software sources(can this be the issue?) can I reset the sources list? or default it? [10:02] jnhghy, sudo apt-get update && sudo do-release-upgrade -p there's some kind of bug that produces the problem. [10:05] cfhowlett: same issue "No new release found" [10:05] jnhghy, see your update/software source settings: LTS to LTS release only [10:06] jnhghy, *and* what is the output of cat /etc/issue [10:07] cfhowlett: I'm updateing now, cat /etc/issue outputed: Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS \n \l [10:07] jnhghy, good deal. [10:10] cfhowlett: same issue no new ... [10:11] jnhghy, sorry, over my head then. [10:11] ? [10:11] what? [10:11] cfhowlett: thanks for your time :) [10:11] what? [10:11] what? [10:12] kaushal, ask your ubuntu support question [10:13] is this for ubuntu support? [10:14] !topic | kaushal [10:14] kaushal: Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic [10:14] kaushal: yes this is the technical ubuntu support channel. do you have a ubuntu related support question? [10:14] i am new to ubuntu. [10:14] !manual |kaushal, [10:14] kaushal,: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [10:14] kaushal, can you type the work "/topic" without quotes? [10:14] word* [10:14] which is stabler 12.04 or 14.04?i have 14.04... [10:15] kaushal, go with 12,04 [10:15] Abhijit, ??? why would you advise 12.04? [10:15] kaushal: 14.04 is stable, too. most people like to have actual software when they make a new install so its ok [10:15] kaushal, both are Long Term Support, and 14.04 has 4.5 years of life remaining. [10:16] ok [10:17] and which is better? dual boot with windows8 or virtual box? [10:17] kaushal, virtualbox will not give you 100% functionality [10:17] kaushal: depends on your needs. dualboot is fine to have a nativ experience. but for first testing vbox is fine [10:18] i use it only for coding.. [10:19] kaushal: why not use ubuntu as real OS? what is a showstopper for you? [10:21] yes....i dual booted....just wanted to make sure that there wont be any hardware problems......because my battery gets heated fast in ubuntu than windows.. [10:21] why is that? [10:22] battery heated? unless it's over 90 degrees, I wouldn't worry, although it does meann high battery usage. higher brightness of screen, more apps running, more graphics enabled, using unity (:P), etc. [10:23] !flavors | kaushal, kubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu might give you better results [10:23] kaushal, kubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu might give you better results: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. [10:23] I noticed that using Linux Mint (basically Ubuntu remix, i.e. ubuntu with a different GUI) my battery lasts much longer. even ubuntu with LMDE or Gnome3 uses much less power than unity. [10:23] Laurenceb_, ^ [10:24] damn. kaushal ^ [10:24] It's still the same kernel, so the only real difference would be how much the different DE's drain the system [10:24] kaushal: general issue is that the manufactures only ship drivers for windows and linux user got to help themselves. there are standards which are supported by linux very well but most manufacturers dont grab 100% of that standards [10:25] and unity is built for pretty looks and functionality, not CPU conservativeness. [10:25] damn interfaces is always overwritten in some way using preseed [10:25] kaushal: You can install powertop and see if that shows something eating away your resources [10:25] this sucks big time [10:25] * iptable checks out powertop [10:26] iptable: kaushal if you want a lightweight system start with Lubuntu. but most people want a shiny desktop with a lot of services like unity provides it. its your choice [10:26] thanks and is there any command for automatically setting my brightness,because each time i switch on i will have to reduce brightness..Any commands?? [10:26] "unity is built for pretty looks" - comedy hour starts... [10:27] kaushal: i think that is bios related. most bios are set to go full brightness on start [10:28] k1l_, no thanks. I'm happy with Linux Mint Cinnamon. Good looks with low CPU usage compared to unity. it's personal fevourite. you could try it kaushal [10:28] yes [10:29] cynicallemon: its not meant that hard like it sounds :) (i am using unity myself) but its not meant to be a lightweight desktop in the first place. [10:29] iptable: same with debian and xfce [10:29] kaushal, for a start, there is a BIOS setting. then most laptops come with brightness sensor nowadays for auto-adjustment. I'm sure there is a command as well you could stuff into login auto-start list but you would have to google it [10:30] cynicallemon, well, it is a personal choice. I just like ubuntu instead. debian lacks in drivers to boot on my hardware [10:30] ok [10:30] k1l_: yes i know, i use ubuntu too [10:30] thats it ...thanks a lot [10:30] cynicallemon, and yes, unity IS built for pretty looks. most users love the way it looks, hence it looks like that. just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to be rude about it. [10:31] hateball, how do I read powertop results? [10:31] hateball, what's the difference between usage and events panes? [10:31] iptable: rude? was making an observation [10:32] !behelpful | cynicallemon, [10:32] cynicallemon,: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. [10:32] "comedy hour starts" IS quite a rude statement for someone's observation [10:33] cool guys [10:33] :) [10:35] guys ..i am new to xchat...how do i learn to use it?? [10:35] read the help... [10:36] kaushal : look ubuntu manpage or type "man xchat" in a terminal [10:37] f1 is your friend. [10:37] ok [10:38] greetings, anyone know if there is a way to invert the system logs in the gnome system log viewer so the most recent entries are at top? [10:39] kaushal: there is also hexchat now which is a more up to date version of xchat === PsiOmega is now known as AlphaBeta [10:40] I get an error in Rancid, when I run rancid-run it gives an clogin error in the logs, but manually I can login without any problem :/ [10:43] hmuller: i think the tac command does that [10:45] cynicallemon: yes, in a console. I was wondering if there was similar functionality in gnome-system-log [10:46] hmuller: not sure, but does it really matter? [10:47] cynicallemon: only to those watching the newest entries to the logs [10:47] :) [10:48] hmuller, a script which reads the file and revert the logs at fix interval? [10:49] abhijit: I can do all that in the console, I was just checking to see if gnome-system-log had similar functionality [10:49] ok [10:51] hmuller: doesn't appear to be [10:52] hmuller: maybe ask the gnome devs to incorporate it [10:53] hmuller: a browser based solution would be quite easy to do too i guess [10:54] cynicallemon: thx, I'm trying to review a cached version of the manual to verify functionality present/missing in implementation [10:54] hmuller: im sure an earlier version had it [10:55] when I tap on Google+ I get the message No Connection, could not connect to the server.

[12:41] jasabella, 0.0.0.0.:53 or something else? [12:42] 192.168.1.2 as it should be? [12:42] also localhost [12:42] jasabella, "as it should be" is quite an assumption [12:42] jasabella, you did check and the netstat told you it is listening specifically on 192.168.1.2:53 right? [12:42] jasabella: do you have the only DHCP in network? [12:42] hmmm i have 0.0.0.0:67 under udp [12:42] yes i did [12:43] yes i disabled my router's dhcp [12:43] jasabella, so, it's not 53, it's 67. [12:43] no it's lisetening to both [12:43] 53 and 67 [12:43] jasabella, ok, so it's listening on 0.0.0.0:67 AND 192.168.1.2:53? [12:43] both UDP? === banister is now known as banisterfiend [12:44] iptable: phpmyadmin works and is installed, but in this per-site directory php doesn't seem to be active. what steps should i take to try to fix this? [12:45] tcp 127.0.0.1:53, tcp 192.168.1.2:53, udp 127.0.0.1:53, udp 192.168.1.2:53, udp 0.0.0.0:67 [12:45] jasabella, to test, dig @192.168.1.2 google.com <= that will look up google.com using your dnsmasq [12:45] BlueShark: "nmcli dev list | grep domain_name_servers" [12:45] jasabella, once tested with dig, iptables -L -vn and provide output in pastebin. this is to see if firewall is blocking it [12:46] Kamuela, but html is accessible, just php does not work? [12:46] i dont have a firewall set up [12:47] iptable: yeah, the path works for other resources [12:47] Kamuela, here, have a manual which gets you just that: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDirectoryPHP [12:47] http://pastebin.com/K4xCwfBq [12:47] Kamuela, what's the result of the dig command? [12:47] wrong user, jasabella ^ [12:48] it works :) [12:48] iptable +1 [12:48] gives me a whole lot of 74.125.237.0/24 addresses [12:49] iptable: thanks so much for that guide. worked flawlessly after commenting out those lines in php5.conf :D [12:49] jasabella, so dnsmasq works and responds on the DNS port [12:49] yep [12:49] Kamuela, no problem [12:49] dhcp isnt working it seems [12:49] jasabella: what does your original "not working" really mean - maybe that your local dnsmasq instance isn't referred to in resolvconf's "/etc/resolv.conf" ? [12:49] How do I add a directory with commands to my PATH ? [12:49] greetings, what is the approved method for disabling bluetooth at boot in trusty? [12:49] jasabella: Is it just DHCP/BOOTP that is the issue? [12:50] jasabella, ok, so let's test dhcp now [12:50] well i didnt edit /etc/resolv.conf directly, i used /etc/network/interfaces [12:50] Vladimir: prepend (or append) in ~/.profile e.g. PATH=/the/new/bin:$PATH [12:51] takes effect next time you log in [12:51] dnsmasq forwards dns requests from it to the name servers specificed in /etc/resolv.conf which is obtained from /etc/network/interfaces dns-nameservers [12:51] geirha: It's strange I tried to add something earlier like PATH=/bin/bash and then ALL my commands stopped working [12:51] ya it's just DHCP that's not working [12:51] hello [12:51] Vladimir: Yes, that would be very bad [12:51] jasabella: I don't see any dhcp-range in the config that isn't commented out [12:51] can I ask a newbie question? [12:52] hnordt: don't ask to ask, just ask! [12:52] Vladimir: PATH shall contain a colon separated list of directories [12:52] jasabella: sorry, found it now: "dhcp-range=eth0,192.168.1.128,192.168.1.254,24h" [12:52] line 145 [12:52] yes [12:52] geirha: yeah so if I type >PATH=/var/lib/rancid/bin then all commands in that directory will be available? and nothing will be gone? [12:52] if I close all ports, except the SSH port (and change it to another port), then disable login via password, only enable with private key, my server is 100% secure? [12:53] jasabella, on the machine that has dnsmasq, run sudo dhclient -d -v [12:53] jasabella, also, on another client machine, boot from linux liveCD and perform the same dhclient -d -v command to see if you are getting the lease and where from [12:53] Vladimir: If you do that, ONLY commands from that directory will be available [12:53] Vladimir: You want PATH=/var/lib/rancid/bin:$PATH [12:53] geirha: so how do I append to the existing PATH [12:53] oh okej [12:53] geirha: Thanks alot man [12:53] I'll try that [12:53] (like I showed earlier) [12:54] hnordt... PermitRootLogin too and AllowUsers [12:54] hnordt, no === winb_ is now known as winb [12:54] iptable... what do i paste from that? :) [12:55] jasabella: OK, lets get rid of all the comments and just look at the configuration: http://pastebin.com/TYP7MBaw [12:55] hnordt, it is possible that someone will exploit a vulnerability in the future in ssh that is not yet discovered [12:55] jasabella, the whole thing. to pastebin [12:55] okay [12:55] jasabella: Are the clients and the dnsmasq host on the same ethernet domain? [12:55] yes everything is on 192.168.1.0/24 [12:55] 100% secure = not networked in a locked room with electromagnetic shielding and two-person entry lock system ;) [12:56] jasabella: No, that's the IP subnet... I'm talking about the same Ethernet domain / segment [12:56] hmuller, even then it's 99% secure [12:56] i think so? [12:56] geirha: thanks alot man:) [12:56] iptable: ha, yes, you still have the human at the keyboard [12:56] jasabella, remove domain-needed, restart dnsmasq and try again [12:57] iptable: domain-needed doesn't affect the DHCP side of dnsmasq [12:57] hmuller, yes, the fault is usually within the hardware between the keyboard and the chair [12:57] anyone aware if there is an approved method to disable bluetooth at boot in trusty? [12:58] TJ-, oh, didn't know that. never mind then. jasabella should test using dhclient on same machine and on external machine [12:58] iptable: I see, except for a undiscovered vulnerability, is secure to enable root login if it can be made only with private key? [12:58] hmuller, disable at boot as in forever? [12:58] hmuller, blacklist bluetooth module in /etc/modules [12:58] this is what dhclient is showing: http://pastebin.com/YeMnDVc4 [12:58] no, just disable, so that its not on automatically [12:59] iptable: no, just disable, so that its not on automatically [12:59] hnordt, no, as someone can still your machine or break in to that one, which has the key used for auth [12:59] jasabella: You have set a tag as "eth0" on dhcp-range, that is wrong. Use simply "dhcp-range=192.168.1.128,192.168.1.254,24h" [12:59] hnordt, you would need all machines in the chain as secure as that [12:59] hmuller, that would be your GUI settings, no? [12:59] iptable: thank, do you have any material about securing ssh? [12:59] TJ-... i tried it with and without already :( [13:00] hnordt, common sense works quite well [13:00] iptable: I can turn it off in settings, but it is not persistent [13:00] i am trying to install usb wireless lan adapter on 14.04 , iwconfig show wlan0 but i am not able to assin ip to it with dhcp [13:00] what could be a problem [13:00] hmuller, well which binary/service is responsible for it on your system? [13:00] iptable: I mean, do you have any blog post ou article to recommend? [13:00] hello all [13:00] or* [13:01] dhclient is just sending out DHCPDISCOVER and no replies from the server hmmm [13:01] hnordt, no. typically, you want to shutdown all ports in INPUT table on iptables apart from established,related and 22 [13:02] hnordt, then you want to enable 2-factor-auth with the likes of the opensources google-authenticator [13:02] iptable: thx for the input, have to run [13:02] iptable: thank you! [13:02] hnordt, and following that, you want to disable root logins in ssh and force users to ssh to the machine first before they sudo -i to go to root [13:02] hnordt, no problem. no need to change ports btw, that's pointless. [13:03] jasabella: Have you tried adding "log-dhcp" ? [13:03] yea was just going to [13:03] hnordt, 2-factor-auth, no root logins, iptables block rules AND using iptables you can also put in login rate-limiting (google on ssh iptables rate limit for examples). that's all you need. [13:04] wonder where the log is stored :P [13:04] jasabella, did you put the interface in promiscous mode? [13:04] jasabella: Also, add "dhcp-authoritative" [13:04] jasabella, ifconfig eth0 promisc [13:05] jasabella: Usually it goes to syslog [13:06] jasabella, also, perform the test with tcpdump running [13:06] hmmm not really helpful the log [13:07] does tcpdump dump udp? [13:07] jasabella, yes [13:08] jasabella, also, if you just start dnsmasq -d -q, it will run in foreground and output verbose to screen [13:09] log from dnsmasq http://pastebin.com/ruEyKiXF [13:12] jasabella, did you try running dhclient before giving us log? [13:13] iptable: yes, see http://pastebin.com/YeMnDVc4 [13:13] TJ- have u configured Rancid? [13:14] TJ-, this paste has been removed [13:14] jasabella: I go back to asking whether the clients and DHCP server are on the same Ethernet domain - this could be due to VLANs or a segmented layer-2 [13:15] TJ-, running dhclient on the same machine as the server fails, I would say it's not a domain issue [13:15] iptable: That was quick! I copy/pasted it but there's nothing there: http://pastebin.com/KgjtHt8G [13:15] Hi guys, I haveing an small issue with suid, i used chmod u+s /folder but when I create a new file / folder in that folder, it does not have the correct owner, the sgid works well but not the suid does not it's very strange, any idea why ? [13:15] iptable: running dhclient from the same i/f as the server ... surely that won't loopback? [13:16] oooohh [13:16] i didnt have dhcp-option set [13:16] TJ-, worked on my server for testing [13:16] so i set a gateway now [13:16] windows returns the right gateway and can connect [13:17] dhcp-option=option:router,192.168.1.1 [13:17] good to see you Ubuntu family [13:17] jasabella: So windows clients *were* getting a DHCP lease, but it just didn't have a gateway set? [13:17] i need to confirm that still (dhcp lease bit) [13:18] because this was working on my mobile phone but not laptop [13:18] (connected via wifi) [13:20] jasabella better use a cable while you're troubleshooting, so you don't have to worry about wifi [13:20] MonkeyDust: Hard to test DHCP from a mobile device without using wireless :) [13:20] I've just update to 14.04 and I'm trying to create a desktop shortcut for firefox, I had trouble with this, seen a bug report (quite old) ... what is the workaround? any step by step way? [13:20] oh good, i seem to be getting dhcp now [13:21] TJ- havent followed, i missed that part :) [13:21] MonkeyDust: :D [13:21] now i gotta figure out why the names arent resolving x( [13:26] anyone on the suid question ? [13:28] I've just update to 14.04 and I'm trying to create a desktop shortcut for firefox, I had trouble with this, seen a bug report (quite old) ... what is the workaround? any step by step way? [13:31] So if there is a directory which has many subdirectories which are all full of files, but not more subdirs, and I want to move all of those files up into the original dir, is there a single command I could use? [13:33] brb, keyboard issue [13:36] deb_ac, yes [13:37] iptable, how could I go about finding that command? [13:37] I didnt really know what to google [13:38] I just want to raise the entire set of files at one level up the hierarchy [13:38] deb_ac, mkdir /path/to/new/dir; cd /path/to/original/dir; find /path/to/original/dir/ -type f |while read fn; do mv "${fn}" /path/to/new/dir/.; done [13:38] deb_ac, oh wait [13:39] deb_ac, oh, that's correct, you want to find all files and move them out of their respective dirs [13:40] oh this is firefox messing up lol [13:41] My ubuntu 14.04 keeps changing the keyboard settings, how can I do to prevent that and set my keyboard Es Only? [13:42] iptable, would this still work if say /dir/x has sub-dirs a-z and I dont want to create a new dir, just move the files in /dir/x/a, /dir/x/b, etc. to /dir/x? [13:42] mkdir -p /path/to/new/dir && find /path/to/original/dir -type f -exec mv -it /path/to/new/dir {} + [13:42] deb_ac: Something like "find /dir/x -mindepth=1 -maxdepth=2 -type f mv {} /dir/x/ \;" === fred_ is now known as Guest95451 [13:43] deb_ac, mkdir /dir/x/tmp; mv /dir/x/* /dir/x/tmp/; find /dir/x/tmp/ -type f ... [13:44] TJ-, hah, would help if I read the man pages myself :D didn't know mindepth existed. only about maxdepth [13:44] geirha, spoil-o-sport :P [13:44] iptable, TJ-, thanks. TIL. [13:44] exit [13:44] granted [13:45] Hello all, I have a quick question. Where can I learn about system vs user libraries and making system links for them? [13:45] say for example... [13:46] telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl [13:46] ascii-art star wars episode IV [13:46] ubuntu 14 comes with libboost 1.48 I need 1.47 can I install it in my home and link to it? [13:46] exit [13:47] approved [13:47] rAnDoM-gUy, google [13:47] rAnDoM-gUy: you can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to your library [13:47] iptable: not helpful. [13:47] TJ-, I got "find: unknown predicate `-mindepth=1'" [13:47] rAnDoM-gUy, that's what we all do. it is the biggest library. although if you have an actually specific question about a single problem, we are willing to help [13:47] popey, why? [13:47] deb_ac: it's -mindepth 1 without the = [13:48] iptable: we don't just tell people to google stuff round these parts. [13:48] thanks! [13:48] popey, did you read the original question? Where can I learn about system vs user libraries and making system links for them? [13:48] iptable: yes. and I answered too. [13:48] I checked google. was wondering if ubuntu itself had documentation. [13:48] popey, I answered that. for the other question, which was more specific, we can answer [13:48] Kinda new to system links and library stuff. [13:49] popey, and I am well aware of "these parts". been here for a while [13:49] rAnDoM-gUy: you can unpack the older boost library and stick it in your home somewhere, and use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to it [13:49] Awesome thank ! Solves so many problems for me. [13:49] I can link and run older software I need on the newer ubuntu distros now. [13:49] hi [13:50] rAnDoM-gUy, you could always do that by bootstrapping an older distro to a chroot/LXC environment [13:50] Just wanted to make sure it worked like that before I make all these links lol. [13:50] guys, how do I reset a Ubuntu vps? [13:50] The_Challenger: depends on the provider, they mostly have some kind of web panel to do that kind of thing. [13:50] rAnDoM-gUy, debootstrap a whole older ubuntu to a directory and chroot there to run older software in older ubuntu. you can have multiple older distros running under newest ubuntu kernel and just chroot between them [13:50] The_Challenger: ask the hoster how to handle that. mybe they got a user settings menue for that [13:51] rAnDoM-gUy, http://glonek.co.uk/tips-tricks/ubuntu-debootstrap-and-chroot/ [13:51] popey: they don't have one.. any command to perform that action? [13:51] The_Challenger: not really. [13:52] The_Challenger: there is no "reset" option. === amphibian is now known as Guest91526 [13:52] exit [13:52] The_Challenger, they don't have one? your hosting provider installed that ubuntu linux, they will be able to reinstall it to what it was by default. [13:52] ge0rJey really? [13:52] no way to erase all packages and reinstall them? [13:53] The_Challenger, no [13:53] ok [13:53] tks [13:53] no problem [13:53] must request a server reset [13:53] In the command "find /dir/x -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 2 -type f mv {} /dir/x/ \;" what are the "{}" and "\;" signifying? [13:53] deb_ac, the stuff that find finds [13:54] damn, keyboard layout screweed. gotta quit [13:55] I have magic cookies? [13:55] http://bpaste.net/show/91a0acc3aa1c [13:56] can anyone else confirm they have these in their /home/???? folders [13:56] that cookie? [13:56] oh, fixed [13:56] .goutput******-***** [13:56] djjeff: yes, you're not special ☻ [13:56] and all this time I thought I was [13:57] djjeff: i have 160 of them here ⍨ [13:57] yikes! [13:57] I do not have one :( [13:57] so rm-rf ? [13:57] djjeff, nope, not here. ubuntu 14.04 [13:57] djjeff: i tend not to randomly delete files as a rule [13:57] djjeff, I have to manually clean them out. they are file download artifacts. [13:57] Hi, I want to edit /etc/rc.local but its protected. how do i enable read and write? [13:57] djjeff, so something is producing those on your system that doesn't do that on fresh install [13:57] iptable, chmod ? [13:58] tatjana, sudo vi [13:58] tatjana, sudo gedit filenamehere assuming you know what you are doing ... [13:58] Im following a tutorial on how to fix the suspend issue on my chromebook [13:58] iptable, ignore that miss tab [13:58] cfhowlett: :-O gksudo, surely! [13:58] djjeff: mine are all older than march 2013 [13:58] popey, ty [13:59] djjeff, popey it is a bug, you should not have those files there [13:59] djjeff, popey http://askubuntu.com/questions/151101/why-are-goutputstream-xxxxx-files-created-in-home-folder [13:59] cfhowlett, I already edited the files and saved them on my desktop so basically I just need to replace them. Its not working, what should I do? [14:00] hola a todo soy nuebo en este canal [14:00] tatjana, you should edit the files where they are [14:00] iptable, I keep getting "find: paths must precede expression: mv" and don't know how to rearrange [14:00] tatjana, gksu nautilus : open the file and "save as" the target file . OR sudo cp source file to target file [14:00] tatjana, some files have got permissions that you will break if you replace them with your edits [14:00] deb_ac, hence my |while read fn method. it is just easier to write and more human English [14:01] iptable, /etc/rc.local and /etc/default/grub [14:01] tatjana, rc.local needs execute for example, which your replacement will erace [14:01] tatjana, did you already replace them? if not, edit the files as they are [14:01] tatjana, those files are locked away for good reason. [14:01] iptable, I cant save them because they are protected [14:02] tatjana, they are not protected. [14:02] cfhowlett, Im having issues with ubuntu on my chromebook [14:02] tatjana, you just do not have write access to them [14:02] tatjana, you edit them using either sudo vi or gksudo gedit [14:02] cfhowlett, there is a reason why i need to edit [14:02] tatjana, you edit them using either sudo vi or gksudo gedit [14:02] tatjana, understood. [14:04] thanks iptable, i think it worked [14:04] brb [14:04] tatjana, no probs [14:05] iptable, keeps returning > [14:05] until I ctrlC [14:05] I need to upgrade grub but in order to do so, i must be logged in as root. how do i do this?

[14:16] very nice btw.. mine only steps up to 2.66ghz, but says it's capable of 5000mhz [14:16] yes, on demand [14:16] adil, semi-auto [14:17] Ok? [14:17] adil, but yes, without the need of your intervention at all [14:17] adil, the cores will randomly step up [14:17] I c [14:17] iptable, thats what I originally wanted and was asking if was possible, but Ill try a new dir [14:17] Voyage: what is the first line of the file? Usuall something like #!/bin/bash [14:17] adil, not all at once, unless you're compiling [14:17] Voyage, you have coded this shell script in WIndows [14:18] Voyage, that IS your problem [14:18] iptable: there's some back history here? [14:18] I can see the load is low. This is a quad core maching. Do the all cores go up in sync? [14:18] adil, you can install "lm-sensors" and then type 'watch sensors' and it'll show you [14:18] Voyage, windows uses \n\r exit characters while linux only \n. use dos2unix tool to convert the script [14:18] somsip, lots... [14:19] somsip, first time I done that, I spent 2 days troubleshooting until hexdump... [14:19] iptable: k - I'll back off until he's clear about the problem. Looks like you got it [14:19] sorry.. [14:19] not sensors.. I'm not fully awake. ;/ [14:20] @wheattin. Thanks, but that's just temprature [14:20] somsip, bash: derby.sh bin/sh^M bad interpreter <= it's the ^M that's the giveaway [14:20] adil, sudo watch -n 1 cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq [14:20] iptable: yep - didn't see it. [14:20] adil, no, cores come up as needed on CoreiX and xeons [14:20] Wow, that is awesome. Thanks @wheattin [14:21] @iptable. K thx [14:21] hi friends [14:21] I'm thinking for purchasing a few more servers for our statrup. They're on Xeons now, but should i go for opterons in the future? [14:22] Provided the performance is comparable, is there anything i should be look out for? [14:22] adil, Pentium3 go nicely [14:22] lol.. [14:22] adil, OR you should tell us what you running [14:22] They're database machines running MongoDB [14:22] xeons are fine.. just give adequate ram [14:22] iptable, find /media/cep/Wbout/Unsorted/ -type f |while read fn; do mv "${fn}" /media/cep/Wbout/dump/.; still returning ">" [14:23] adil, my home servers needed 4 HP Microserver N40L, my friend is on 2 N40L, my work uses Xeons, about 30k physical machines [14:23] that's 30 thousand [14:23] very nice :) [14:23] cloud computing? [14:23] adil, it still depends if your MySQL/mongo is used for what queries. [14:23] sorry offftopic :P [14:24] wheatthin, "kind of"... or otherwise "as well" [14:24] Awesome! I don't have any complaints with the Xeons, i was wondering if the Opterons are cheaper from price/ performance perspective [14:24] that's something you'd have to shop for hommie lol [14:24] We run a lot of Mongo Aggregate queries on there, sort of like Map/Reduce but multi-threaded. Given enough RAM the # of cores affects the perf. [14:24] deb_ac, DONE! [14:25] deb_ac, you are still not reading my lines exactly as they are [14:25] sorry [14:25] deb_ac, find /media/cep/Wbout/Unsorted/ -type f |while read fn; do mv "${fn}" /media/cep/Wbout/dump/.; done [14:25] one sec, Ill go back over em [14:25] adil, use hybrid ssd drives too.. bumps up performance for mysql [14:25] deb_ac, the word done at the end is important [14:25] Oh!!!!!! [14:25] hahahahahaaha [14:25] deb_ac, yes, it denotes end of loop [14:25] @wheatin, have thos too [14:25] I thought youve been saying you were done! [14:26] adil, coreI7 are quite good performance-wise for middle-range queries [14:26] and cheap [14:26] 30k servers, I don't think he want's middle range. :) [14:27] wheatthin, that's what I got, not him ;) [14:27] deb_ac, lol :D [14:27] ah :P [14:27] iptable, That seems to have done it! Thanks a million! [14:27] Ive always wanted to build a render farm .. drools :P ubuntu would rock if opencl would function good :P [14:28] adil, more cheaper HW is better if you run a lot of long queries. if you run smaller query count and need it with much power, you execute it with less machines, more power [14:28] deb_ac, no problem [14:28] wheatthin, the Blender people have some kind of rendering project in motion "Project red currant" is the name IINM [14:28] awesome~! :P [14:29] * iptable goes to have proper break [14:29] iptable, deserved [14:29] deb_ac, cheers [14:29] iptable, thanks [14:30] Voyage, no probs [14:31] qq all [14:31] :D [14:31] Is there any way I can merge the menu bar with the top bar in gnome fallback mode? [14:31] when does the ubuntu phone come out? [14:31] intelx86: soon [14:32] please how soon? [14:32] intelx86: can't say. up to manufacturers. [14:32] will we be able to put it on our old android phones? [14:32] intelx86: you already can for some devices [14:33] intelx86: the software has been available to download for months now. [14:33] great what about a samsung mega? [14:33] intelx86: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices [14:33] @wheattin @iptable Thanks guys [14:33] wafflejock, [14:33] thanks popey [14:33] also how can i customize the start menu? [14:33] i don't want 'switch user, log out' to appear in it [14:34] this is for developer purposes only. i don't know if this will work with a carrier [14:35] great they got rid of the best 7 inch tablet the nexus 7 [14:35] horrible [14:35] intelx86, Q4 is the target date, but in reality "When it's done." [14:35] right [14:35] intelx86: the nexus 7 2013 is still supported for installing on [14:36] why would i want that. I have a 2012 model that is perfectly capable [14:36] Does anyone have any expertise troubleshooting Upstart scripts? === sparr|2 is now known as sparr [14:37] intelx86: you might not, but thats the state of affairs. the nexus 7 was/is slow [14:38] not its not it has a quad core processor with great graphics [14:39] ok, we'll agree to disagree [14:39] how could such hardware not render ubuntu? [14:40] intelx86: it did, but we moved on to the nexus 7 2013. [14:40] why? [14:40] its faster, higher res, more available. [14:40] times move on [14:41] not by much [14:41] why did we move on from Pentium4 [14:41] by not much at a time [14:41] u work for the illumanati lol [14:41] we move a step at a time [14:41] better cooling and other technologies? just guessing [14:42] I really like the passive cooling with ARM [14:42] IIRC the GPU in the 2012 Nexus 7 struggled. [14:42] popey do you work for ubuntu? [14:42] I really like the water cooling in my machine [14:42] yes [14:42] ok [14:43] i have a hard time seeing the nexus 7 struggle but i will take your word on it [14:43] <[]Tsukasa[]> when I ssh into my box with another user, no matter what dir i'm in it only displays $, not user@server:/ [14:44] <[]Tsukasa[]> how do I correct that, sorry idk what to google for that issue [14:45] []Tsukasa[]: ~/.bashrc [14:45] []Tsukasa[], if you run bash, does the problem get fixed? just run: bash [14:46] <[]Tsukasa[]> yes [14:46] []Tsukasa[], then it's because your did not set a shell for the users (which defaults to something else than bash) or set a shell other than bash [14:46] []Tsukasa[], user usermod to modify user to use bash shell by default (or sudo vi /etc/passwd if you aconfortable with that) [14:47] []Tsukasa[]: sounds like you have a .bash_profile or .profile file that does not source .bashrc [14:47] <[]Tsukasa[]> ah thanks I have corrected it :) [14:47] []Tsukasa[], no worries [14:47] geirha, no, user wasn't even running bash, that's why ;) [14:48] ah, nevermind then. Probably used useradd instead of adduser to create the user, hence sh became the default shell [14:48] <[]Tsukasa[]> lastly. I have private/public keys. Can I set the public key to all users without having to add it to certain users authorized_key file? [14:48] chsh -s /bin/bash [14:49] []Tsukasa[], ok, so talking aabout ssh key authentication. no, you would echo it into >> auth file [14:49] <[]Tsukasa[]> iptable thanks didn't know if there was any other way [14:50] []Tsukasa[], not that I now of, although you can set default profile, where you could source the authorized_keys file for all new users [14:50] or maybe you're looking for host based authentication [14:51] []Tsukasa[], look at /etc/default/useradd [14:51] []Tsukasa[], or that, as geirha suggested [14:52] I'd rather recommend not using useradd at all. Use adduser when creating users on the command line. [14:53] []Tsukasa[], in /etc/skel are all the files and dirs which you can edit/add to create defualt profiles for all users [14:53] []Tsukasa[], or as geirha said, google for "host based authentication ssh" === Guest5641 is now known as notmagic [14:54] hey iptable, it made about halfway through than began throwing "No space left on device", despite the fact Ive got 750 gb free and the files are only 60gb collectively. Any ideas? [14:57] deb_ac, so you were moving from one device to another? [14:57] deb_ac, df -h in pastebin please [14:57] deb_ac, and also location of the actual files [14:57] iptable nope, same device, and k, one sec for the pastebin [14:58] deb_ac, looks like another issue. mv on same filesystem does just relocation, it does not use space for the moves [14:59] iptable, thats what I thought, idk whats up. Ill put the actual commands on paste bin as well [14:59] deb_ac, please do. I'm guessing you have another problem [15:01] http://pastebin.com/3Y4VSbzc [15:02] deb_ac, please give me full error of no space left on device. which device [15:02] iptable, got thousands of [15:03] "mv: cannot move ‘/media/cepacet/Walkabout/Unsorted/recup_dir.37/f2553712640.jpg’ to ‘/media/cepacet/Walkabout/dump/./f2553712640.jpg’: No space left on device" [15:03] deb_ac, you got 666GB of space left :D [15:03] deb_ac, probably it's 666 the problem [15:03] :P [15:03] lol [15:03] what? [15:04] iptable, is that a real problem or is that a devil joke? [15:04] devil joke, no, that wasn't real [15:04] although, it would be funny if it was [15:05] deb_ac, well, no idea apart from an issue with filesystem corruption [15:05] damn [15:05] deb_ac, unmount and fsck /dev/sdb1 [15:05] kk [15:06] deb_ac, and before/after, also do du -hs /media/cepacet/Walkabout to see if space used matches df [15:06] might be that you did run out of space === kissiel is now known as kissiel-afk [15:07] deb_ac, in any case, that would be a filesystem corruption. what FS is that? dont' tell me it's ntfs/fat32. if it is, you are better of using windows scandisk to correct errors. [15:07] it is [15:08] fat32, I dont have access to windows... One sec and ill put everything up on pastebin [15:08] deb_ac, it is what? fat32 you *may* try with fsck on linux === xubuntu is now known as Guest83352 [15:09] deb_ac, are you sure the file you are copying/moving is not over 4GB? fat32 has many issues and limitations [15:09] hello :) i know i am a noob, but how to run C scripts on ubuntu? [15:10] you should compile it [15:10] deb_ac, is this a USB hard drive, or some kind of SSD/flash media? [15:10] with gcc or g++ [15:11] deb_ac: use ntfs format [15:11] ok thanks guys :) [15:11] deb_ac, no, do not listen to Ray_mond, do not run ntfs. fsck for ntfs can't even fix common errors [15:11] I need to create a USB stick to boot into Linux, I tried using grub but my BIOS does not detect it has a EFI USB. I can boot Linux as long as I don't boot into Windows. [15:11] Ray_mond, there is no such thing as C script. C/C++ are applications, you need to compile them with gcc [15:11] !gcc | Ray_mond [15:11] Ray_mond: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [15:12] iptable, its fat 32.. there might be on or two that are over 4gb, but all the ones I saw give the disk error are under 1gb. the reason im doing all of this is because I accidently changed the partition and fucked the mbr and used photorec to recover everythin. Its a 1tb external hd [15:13] iptable: what do you mean with fsck for ntfs cannot even fix common errors? :o [15:13] Then the USB stick is not recognized at all. [15:13] jamez in linux or in windows? [15:13] linux [15:13] Ray_mond, I mean ntfs is proprietary Microsoft format and fsck.ntfs cannot fix quite a few common issues that appear with fs corruption on ntfs filesystems. issues that windows scandisk can fix [15:13] one sec and ill post a pastebin [15:14] Ray_mond, hence why on unmount of ntfs in linux, you always get the "dirty" flag on to issue a windows scandisk ofthe partition on boot [15:14] iptable: ah ok thx [15:14] txt [15:14] jamez so you can boot in linux, but after that, usb is not recognized, right? [15:14] txt [15:14] deb_ac, used photorec ON that external drive? [15:15] I create my USB stick, I can boot linux as long as I don't boot Windows. If I boot Windows, I can no longer boot Linux from the usb stick. [15:15] iptable, yeah [15:15] jamez it's linux OR windows, not both [15:15] deb_ac, fat32 does not work with files larger than 4GB to begin with === Xtreme is now known as Xtreme_Away [15:16] deb_ac, also, photorec would have recovered files but your filesystem is still in tears. [15:16] jamez first leave windows and then boot in linux [15:16] deb_ac, the only way to fix your issue is to move al lthe recovered files away from that partition, reformat and move stuff back [15:16] iptable, after I recovered I re-formated [15:16] then moved back to new format [15:16] deb_ac, oh, looks like something went wrong... [15:16] (fat32) [15:16] :/ [15:17] one sec on the pastebin [15:17] jamez what do you mean, boot linux, while you are in windows? [15:17] k [15:17] having trouble unmounting [15:17] how works a Ddos attack? I ask because psn was down [15:17] deb_ac, it is screwed. could be actual physical issue and a problem with bad sectors. [15:17] i know, i boot into Windows then shut it down. Then, I can no longer use my USB stick to boot into Linux. The BIOS does not seem to recognize it as a UEFI USB stick. So how do I create one ?> [15:17] nooooo [15:18] this is my second hd and im in Africa with no money [15:18] I just gotta save my files somehow [15:18] deb_ac, I would say, put those files back out of that drive, then run a check for bad sectors, also install smartmontools and run smartctl and test the drive, then reset mbr, create new partition and format. [15:18] jamez boot in windows and use yumi, or yumma, to create a bootable usb stick [15:18] I did notice I kept gettin i/o errors [15:18] deb_ac, that's assuming that bad sectors don't appear and that smart succeeds. otherwise, do not use drive [15:18] and ip table, will do [15:18] how works a Ddos attack? I ask because psn was down [15:18] deb_ac, in dmesg? [15:19] no, on lubuntu at a cyber cafe when Id try and open in file manager [15:19] but that was before the format error on my part [15:19] and it always works fine on ubuntu laptop [15:20] Ray_mod: "Disterbuted Dential of Service " Try to make the server not responding by attacking with lots of bots [15:21] deb_ac, 1. make a backup, 2. bad sector test, 3. smartmontools->smartctl, 4. if tests failed, do not use drive. if success, proceed to point 5 => 5. reset the MBR using dd (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1), 6. use fdisk or parted or gparted to create new partition [15:21] deb_ac, also, unless you need to access it from windows, I would advise going with ext4/btrfs/ext3. [15:22] deb_ac, I typically have a 100GB partition as fat32 that I use for transfers between windows and linux that I format often and keep the rest as btrfs [15:23] deb_ac, note that fat32/vfat is very prone to errors. it's designed to fail :D [15:23] iptable, will do. Do you still need fsck & du ? Also, I need fat32 because I never quit traveling and use what computers I can. And I know! I only used ext4 when I was back home [15:24] my audio not working but is recognised [15:24] deb_ac, in that case, having a windows VM/dualboot and ntfs might be better for you. ntfs is much better [15:25] wow this is weird: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/330395/dns-problem-nslookup-works-ping-doesnt [15:25] deb_ac, well you could try fsck, it *might* fix your filesystem, but I would backup and reinstall. [15:25] I dont own a computer, just using one from work. And will change to ntfs [15:25] and kk, will try fsck after backup [15:25] deb_ac, oh, do get a computer, makes all the sense. [15:26] no $! [15:26] sold everything to travel and volunteer [15:26] just have a hard drive and computer [15:26] camera* [15:26] lol [15:26] deb_ac, alternatively there is a ext2 filesystem driver for windows to use under windows. [15:26] iptable, compatible w/ osx? [15:27] ext2 [15:27] hello people. My question: i remember there was a command which returned all proprietary packages installed in my system, but i am not able to find it. Does anyone know such a command? thanx [15:27] iamwhoiam: vrms [15:28] deb, kind of. you need to hack at it with osx fuse and ext2 drive. [15:28] deb_ac, ^ [15:28] !info vrms | iamwhoiam [15:28] iamwhoiam:dpkg --list [15:28] iamwhoiam: vrms (source: vrms): virtual Richard M. Stallman. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.16 (trusty), package size 11 kB, installed size 77 kB [15:28] deb_ac, ntfs will be your best choice and scandisk usign windows tools whenever you can [15:28] popey, rrman : thanks a lot people!!!!! [15:29] NP :) [15:29] iptable, sounds good [15:29] when I run apt-get install php5-curl, it also enables the mod and restarts php5-fpm automatically, but apt-get install php5-mcrypt only installs the mod, but I have to run `php5enmod mcrypt` to get it enabled, can anyone explain why? [15:29] deb_ac, best call. but do get another drive and keep a backup of your data. SSD is more expensive but much better to carry error-wise. for backups awesome as well. [15:29] deb_ac, anyways, I'm off. been on the channels for a whole day and got my work to actually do. [15:30] Hi guys - Was wondering if anyone know anything about bind9 primary and secondary dns stuff? [15:30] mpistone, because someone assumed that you want curl enabled when you are installing it while they thought you might want to do other stuff with mcrypt, like enable per session. it's a choice thing [15:31] vorcer, yes, we do [15:31] next [15:31] iptable, thanks for everything man. If I had money Id tip you in btc or something. [15:31] iptable: thanks [15:32] what's btc? [15:32] deb_ac, no thanks, I only do free help [15:32] MonkeyDust, bitcoin [15:32] MonkeyDust, if you need to ask, you come from a very old world without technology and scammers :D [15:32] I've set up bind9 with primary and secondary dns using ubuntu server, with reverse dns. I think i've set it up correctly, my zones transfer from the primary to the secondary. But when I shut down the primary (or stop bind9 on the primary), I can still ping the domains, but not do an nslookup - It still looks for the primary dns IP, anyone know why? [15:33] vorcer, your resolv.conf is probably ste to query primary. [15:33] Where is that at iptable? [15:33] iptable other generation, i guess ;) [15:33] MonkeyDust, lucky you :) [15:34] vorcer, if you set your DNS resolv.conf to google 8.8.8.8 and configure both your DNS servers to be responsible for youe zone, google DNS will try primary and then secondary and return correct code [15:34] iptable, is that on the primary or secondary? [15:34] vorcer, it's not just setting up DNS server, you need to query the right DNS server, by configuring your DNS client and configure DNS zone correctly. [15:35] if anyone knows what this is... you may have a basket full of my home made cookies [15:35] http://bpaste.net/raw/db6f274d9ff9 === billxinli is now known as billli [15:35] vorcer, that's on the client... not primary or secondary [15:35] vorcer, to test your primary and secondary DNS, use dig [15:35] I'm using windows 8 as the client and have set up the dns in network interfaces to use my primary IP + secondary IP's [15:35] iptable, looks like youve been sucked in again. Im headed out myself, thanks for being the good open-source samaritan that you are [15:36] vorcer, dig @1.1.1.1 your_domain.com [15:36] vorcer, replace 1.1.1.1 with your primary DNS server [15:36] vorcer, then replace it with secondary dns server. [15:36] where do i run that command (sorry about this) [15:36] vorcer, that's how you test if they both respond. [15:36] on the client? [15:36] vorcer, anywhere in the network that can query those server [15:37] is there a command like that for windows 8? [15:37] vorcer, no and wong channel [15:37] vorcer, this is ubuntu help channel [15:37] I'm using ubuntu servers [15:37] but the client is windows 8 [15:37] ill test dig from another ubuntu server [15:37] vorcer, what you need is bind help channel and networking help channel and a general manual/guide to how DNS works. buy a book for example. you are missing the verey basics [15:38] I'll let others take over. I really should take a break before my next meeting. [15:38] * iptable goes for a break [15:39] privet vsem [15:39] Hm - I ran dig on my primary and secondary DNS IP's and they all work [15:39] But the client cannot reach the domain if my primary dns is shutdown or bind9 isnt running [15:40] I assume its a problem with the client in this case === pj is now known as Guest74785 [15:41] vorcer, you need your client to know that both dns servers exist. yes. troubleshoot client. servers work. I'm guessing your network might need redoing too, but that's another story. most OS, including iwndows xp and 7 let you enter primary and secondary dns. [15:41] Yep - I've added primary and secondary dns to windows 8 network config, not sure what it is if the servers work, i'll troubleshoot [15:42] thanks for the help iptable [15:42] do i nee to install wine1.6 or wine/ [15:42] I'm getting some access rights issue on a samba share directory I have setup. I'm not sure how to further trouble shoot it. THe application requesting the file is the same owner of the root folder for the file, is there something I can do to check? [15:43] So I have two 1tb disks installed, right. First one's primary, at 62% capacity, second I have been using for whatever backup utility Ubuntu comes with [15:43] How is my backup disk full if my primary disk is only at 62%? [15:43] how do i get dnsmasq to bind to the network interface only for dhcp instead of 0.0.0.0? [15:47] hi, what's the difference between tmux and Terminator, please ?

That's the current state of things. anyway, I do appreciate the help :) I've found myself on your end and when the asker is assuming what they're saying makes sense it can be frustrating, sorry [16:13] gp5st, no it doesn't. it implies you can ssh to computer B from computer A [16:13] gp5st, no worries. but no, the answer is you cannot modify current connection [16:14] I just downloaded Flash so I can listen to music via Grooveshark.com.

I just noticed I'm at 4.2 too, but a dist-upgrade is grabbing the new one for me [16:36] trism, that's not a solution, it's a consequence of the upgrade... but apt-get install skype must bring skype-bin with the same version [16:36] at least I think so [16:36] anyway, thanks :) [16:38] Hello, I have a program that automaticly starts up on boot that is not in the startup-applications-preferences.

If the program you run can be allowed to work in the background then append "&" to the command-line to put the process into the background. Otherwise use "nohup " if no terminal interaction is required [18:22] how to install ubuntu one, please ? [18:22] xar_, ubuntu-one is closed.

[18:36] willdo + thanks [18:36] OerHeks, it is installed, I'm trying to upgrade it. [18:38] I had added a new repo, and installed something (been a while), and it borked things up for some reason. [18:38] LewsTherin, there is no newer versen, even upcomming Trusty Tahr 14.10 uses this version 2.13 [18:39] How can I fix this message then? [18:39] LewsTherin, what repo ? might give a clue [18:39] It's been a long time, I can't recall. [18:39] I've since removed it. [18:39] LewsTherin, so your error is not from today, but a while ago ? [18:40] The golang package is at 1.2.1. I'm running into bugs which have been fixed in 1.3.1 which was released a couple of weeks ago. Any idea when the package will be updated? [18:40] Long story short, I'm trying to install gitlab on my VPS, and one of the steps is installing postgres. [18:40] OerHeks, http://paste.thezomg.com/14870/09079093/ [18:41] Sorry, forgot to mention that I'm on trusty. [18:41] Could that other repo have installed a newer git version of locales and broken everything? [18:41] LewsTherin: Is the VPS based on Virtuozzo/OpenVZ? [18:41] TJ-, it's from OVH, I don't know. [18:42] LewsTherin, if you are on trusty 14.04 now, current postgresql is 9.3 [18:42] I'm on 12.04 [18:42] LewsTherin: Well, the issue you've got is the system libc is a version lower than 2.19, which conflicts with locale's requirement [18:42] TJ-, how can I downgrade it? [18:42] apt-get says its up to date. [18:44] Ah, found out a way I think [18:44] LewsTherin: what does this report "/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" ? [18:45] Looks like an incomplete command?

[18:48] Holy hell, can you downgrade a package without removing everything that depends on it? [18:51] LewsTherin downgrade is never a good idea, if at all possible.. i'm sure there's a different solution for your problem [18:52] Gah, this is driving me nutsoid [18:52] Hey does anyone run a speedtouch 330 modem on debian, or has done in the past ( i know its an old modem, trying to get it working under debian ), http://codepad.org/SFzY5kZL <-- anyone know how to get this working i can't see to get it to grab device like ttyS0?

[19:06] What's the difference between Tmux and Terminator ? [19:06] xar_: Uh... everything? [19:06] theadmin, more precision ? [19:06] xar_: Terminator is a terminal emulator, tmux is a multiplexer. [19:07] theadmin, would you detail that, please ? [19:07] xar_: tmux allows you to run multiple apps within a single terminal sessio. Terminator is just a GUI for the shell, a "terminal".

[19:29] but i didn't have any idea it was writing onto the device so i just stopped it half way thinking it would have no effect [19:29] kostkon, so does that mean i ruined it? given that the computer is no longer detecting it..

[19:31] But on the grounds that we don't support hacking, we won't release that info [19:31] kostkon, although that's really cool and i had no idea i was writing firmware onto the device.. is there any way i can fix it now?? [19:31] frib, check your logs. open the system log app or from the terminal. if you need more help just ask [19:31] MonkeyDust: Sadly I'm forced in my new job to use Linux or Mac [19:31] kostkon, which log?

[19:37] kostkon, and modifying the btusb.c driver and running this script made the device functional [19:37] kostkon, meaning it couldn't connect to no less detect bluetooth devices [19:38] frib, right. if we assume the script only patches the driver, then probably you could try reinstalling the driver or the file tath has been altered [19:40] kostkon, how can i reinstall the driver? [19:40] kostkon, the script fails because it can't find the device [19:42] Hi [19:42] I'm on my nexus 7 with 14.10. What's the password for the user phablet?

[19:52] and it worked, but then I have rebooted [19:52] and all fall apart [19:52] and now switching back to ubuntu-desktop [19:52] Um I'm having trouble installing an AMD proprietary graphics driver. [19:53] TJ-, did you say you are uding Kubuntu? [19:53] I can't seem to open the installer. [19:53] Puppy: Stop whatever you are doing and go to System Settings -> Software & Updates -> Hardware Drivers. [19:53] ok i resolved the bluetooth issue, thanks kostkon [19:53] Puppy: Use that to install the driver. [19:53] The drivers there don't function properly. [19:53] frib, how [19:54] TJ-, is there a chance to UNINSTALL COMPLETELY unity and then install it again? [19:54] kostkon, someone in #linux suggested shutdown for 2 minutes [19:54] It installs an older driver that doesn't give any decent resolution for my hardware and interferes with games. [19:54] HikaruBG: Yes I am. Your problem might be solved by creating a new user account and switching to that, if that is possible. The issue is there is something in that user account's unity Gnome/Unity configuration [19:55] frib, interesting [19:55] kostkon, said the card would remain powered over a reboot and wouldn't be in a state for normal initialization [19:56] frib: Full power-off reset will fix most firmware warm-boot issues [19:56] but i'm having this problem with fluxbox where i can't tap on my touchpad .. any idea what's up with that? [19:56] theadmin: No change after restart of networking and apache. netstat has no listen for 127.0.0.1:80, but has listen for 0.0.0.1:80 [19:56] it's not always .. comes and goes [19:56] TBotNik_: Your listen directive in httpd.conf is broken as well, change that to 0.0.0.0 not 0.0.0.1 [19:57] Sorry but the software and updates doesn't give me capable drivers to install. [19:57] Nor does it give me anything too recent. [19:57] Which is why I'm trying to install one from AMD's own website. [19:57] Puppy, for what AMD ATI card? [19:58] I'm using an AMD HD 7770. [19:58] hey guys [19:59] I am using Ubuntu 14 and my hibernation does not work despite patching it according to the various guides.

[20:01] I'm trying to use amd-driver-installer-14.20-x86.x86_64.run to install the driver, but when I try to run it through the gui it opens in Gedit text editor. [20:02] And when I try through the terminal it just says it can't open it. [20:02] Puppy, get properties and see if its set to Executable, and you probably should run it from command line [20:03] It is set to executable and I have tried running it from the terminal. [20:03] billy_the_kid this is how you do it http://paste.ubuntu.com/8152814/ [20:03] But it just says it can't open the file.

I'm trying to get to Home/fglrx/fglrx-14.20 [20:14] cd [20:14] thanks [20:14] Puppy, probably cd Desktop, tab complete it [20:15] if i log into gnome i have no problem, but after about 15 seconds and 2 applications in fluxbox my touchpad stops being able to tap .. anyone have any idea why? thanks [20:15] Puppy, ls to see whats there [20:16] How do you disable unity product scopes in 14.04? [20:16] btw i also noticed that if i open gnome-control-center and try to turn the touchpad off the mouse stops responding entirely [20:16] But the installer is saved into my home folder. [20:16] Well a folder in my home folder. [20:16] then navigate to /home [20:16] Puppy, so cd to that directory [20:17] Is there any reason why wicd would not work but NetworkManager does? [20:17] NetworkManager connects fine, but wicd stays stuck on configuring IP. The log says that it keeps trying DHCPDISCOVER on different ports [20:17] But my computer is saying it can't find that directory. [20:17] Puppy, what does ls show [20:18] I'm typing 'cd /home/fglrx/fglrx-14.20/ [20:18] ' [20:18] The terminal comes back saying 'bash: cd: /home/fglrx/fglrx-14.20/: No such file or directory' [20:18] Puppy, please answer my question [20:19] Puppy, cd /home , then ls [20:19] I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure I understand it. [20:19] Puppy, type -------> ls [20:20] Ok got to home lol. [20:20] Again sorry about this., [20:20] I created I swap of 20GB (having 16GB ram) but hibernate still does not work.

[20:22] i use gnome-do but don't see a hook for user switching [20:22] Puppy, when you are in /home, what is the output of the command 'ls' ? Just type 'ls' and hit Enter.

I think you'd just have to be patient and see if they read and respond to your resume. [21:19] Just a quick question. I've just had to reinstall Ubuntu after an error that meant Skype couldn't run properly and that no sound would come from my speakers of headset. Does anyone have any rough idea as to what could have caused that error? At the time I was running Firefox and Skype. [21:19] because it's a windows phone [21:19] genii, thanks! [21:19] and it makes my look like a hypocrite [21:19] because I am a bit of a Linux evangelist. [21:19] Of course. M$===Evil. [21:19] 4^ [21:20] Puppy_, I've encountered so many problems with Skype on ubuntu that ANYTHING could cause the problem and it's not because of Ubuntu but because of Micro$oft [21:20] however reinstalling system was not a very wise solution in my opinion [21:20] no, we were talking about windows phones Aethersis [21:20] Atomos26, I was talking to Puppy_ :p [21:20] I was talking to userings [21:20] So I shouldn't use Skype for Linux? [21:21] This is not the malign windows channel keep the opinions to yourselves, this is support. [21:21] oh [21:21] sorry [21:21] cross contamination of convos [21:21] Puppy_ you can use it however this is not in repos, it's closed source and since mirosoft took skype over, it got only worse [21:21] my advice is to turn notification sounds in skype off because they used to crash it whenever I was in a call [21:22] Well it's just the issues wouldn't resolve after many reboots. I'm just concerned about it happening again. [21:22] havey you tried purging and reinstalling it? [21:22] or perhaps sound device got changed in skype settings [21:23] have you checked it? [21:23] I couldn't find any way to uninstall it. [21:23] Puppy_, you can switch to Pidgin, it uses XMPP protocol, which is open n free. [21:23] I just reinstalled Ubuntu. [21:23] what do you mean you couldn't find a way [21:23] And could I call people using Skype with myself on Pidgin? [21:23] the easiest way would be to use sudo apt-get remove skype [21:24] I'll remember that thanks :) [21:24] no Puppy_ skype is propertiary and from what I know there are no apps on linux that would allow you using skype protocol [21:24] besides you mean that you have no idea how to uninstall programs? xD [21:25] I can give you some clues how to install/uninstall effectively so maybe you will avoid such weird problems in the future :3 [21:25] Puppy_, no, but you can explain them about open source idea... [21:25] No lol, it's just I couldn't find it listed in my installed items like normal. I tried uninstalling a couple of others and it said it couldn't remove them fully. [21:25] lol. [21:25] Might be a bit difficult but I'll keep that in mind. Thanks :) [21:26] Puppy_ how do you uninstall programs? Using ubuntu software center? [21:26] is the current way of having Ubuntu boot in EFI mode stil to have a fat32 partition mounted as /boot/efi? [21:26] Normally yes. [21:26] Puppy_ for more advanced stuff you can use synaptic [21:26] But it wouldn't list Skype and wouldn't uninstall other programs. [21:26] you can install synaptic with sudo apt-get install synaptic [21:26] I'll maybe look into getting it. [21:27] I'm having problems running Java applets in Firefox (on Ubuntu 14.04), and I'm not sure how to upgrade the plugin.

(When I click "Details", I just get a list of what appears to be command-line flags) Any tips? [21:27] it's a very powerful tool but be careful - it lists components vital for your OS so if you don't know what you're doing, you can break something [21:27] Erm... never mind. the usb connectivity no longer works again [21:27] Atomos26 are you sure the wire is ok? [21:27] unable to open MTP device [21:28] It may not be. this is a refurbished phone with the wire that tmobile sent me [21:28] ha REFURBISHED! [21:28] .-. [21:28] tbh, I think they just sent it back because it's a shitty windows phone [21:28] if it's a windows phone the best would be to check it on windows :D or yeah - send it back and get android ! :D [21:29] Hello guys, I am going to install ubuntu now cleaning 1 of my partitions of my HDD right now I won't have any problems If I install ubuntu on my HDD and not on my SSD right I mean I won't feel performance issues ? [21:29] since its clearl not its not a ubuntu issue we can stop ranting about windows in this channel, thanks [21:29] *clear now [21:29] except for the fact that my mom bought it for me [21:29] Siente, if you install Ubuntu on SSD, the difference will be significant! [21:29] and my only computer doesn't have windows on it [21:30] aethersis: but I don't have any space on my SSD I have only one 120 gb SSD [21:30] Siente: it will be slower on a hdd than on a sdd. [21:30] *ssd [21:30] it will just work a bit slower on hdd and that;s all ^^ [21:30] but I mean If I am hosting something it won't have lower performance right? [21:30] just it won't be with reaction time 0.01 ms [21:31] like apache, php, mysql [21:31] Hey, I'm having a problem with applications recognizing/accessing a hard drive [21:31] Siente: it still will be fine, but dont come back and complain:"my windows feels faster on the ssd" since that is clear from the start [21:31] depends what you're hosting. If you host files and many people will want to download them, it will work slower [21:31] k1l no matter what, windows will work slower xD [21:31] well when it's about web server and only css, js, php files it won't be a problem I guess, so okay :) [21:31] k1l: yes ofc :) [21:31] it will be ridiculous If I do so [21:32] Siente it would make a difference if you had thousands of people connecting, otherwise it will be unnoticeable [21:32] so guys please may you tell me how much partitions I need and what kind of partitions? [21:32] 1 for virtual memory? [21:32] Siente - by default 1 for swap and 1 for system [21:32] I just don't remember I didn't install linux since ages [21:33] and what I've needed for my home dir [21:33] you can let ubuntu do that for you [21:33] how much gb is fine for the system and how much for the swap [21:33] Siente: what device is that? [21:33] it has an option that will autoconfigure everything so you dont need to worry [21:33] desktop, laptop, server, workstation,... [21:33] but I still have windows on this PC [21:33] aetheris, with nginx and thousands of people, it still can be unnoticeable. :) [21:33] and besides if you want to host a server I'd choose either debian or ubuntu server [21:34] Does anyone know how toincrease the maximum available resolution for an fglrx driver? [21:34] Hey, I'm having a problem with applications recognizing/accessing a hard drive [21:34] it will be desktop but with web server [21:34] Siente: what? you want to host something, but talk about dualboot with windows? [21:34] BigTaxi elaborate your problem [21:34] k1l: it will be web server for personal use [21:34] k1l: I'll be just working over my projects on it [21:34] ahh so don't worry Siente, just choose automatic installation in ubuntu installer [21:35] ahh I should see how to put the ubuntu on my flash drive [21:35] use unetbootin, Siente [21:35] if its a "not full time" server anyway you are fine with the standard install from the ubuntu server install [21:35] it does everything automatically [21:36] k1l I guess he wants ubuntu desktop for coding etc [21:36] Essentially, ubuntu server is just regular ubuntu without a UI [21:36] IIRC [21:36] well [21:36] GUI [21:37] aethersis: thank you very much [21:37] hello [21:37] k1l: thank you very much too [21:37] Atomos26: please dont use that much lines in here. you can put 512 chars into one message [21:37] you are welcome! ^^ :3 [21:37] i know, but my IRC habits come from playing IRC Mafia way too much, where getting in the first word can mean life or death [21:38] aethersis: is the Universal USB Installer also fine? [21:38] I advise Unetbootin, Seinte - easy to use and I checked it lots of times [21:39] any chance I can get some tips on a hard drive problem? [21:39] BigTaxi elaborate your problem [21:40] Ktorrent and Banshee are having a tough time accessing/writing files to a hard drive of mine [21:40] BigTaxi: with more details: yes. with just asking if someone could help: no [21:40] after the system update-before everything worked swimmingly [21:40] other apps and I/O operations work fine? [21:40] Banshee states that it doesn't have permission for SOME files, and Ktorrent isn't downloading at all [21:41] it might not be the hard drive, but I guess I'd like a starting point [21:41] heya guys, i cant run a livecd from an ubuntu server disc? [21:41] so apparently it changed group permissions. I'd first try to reinstall these apps - that would be the easiest way [21:41] i have to download the desktop version? [21:41] g0tcha: that is not a live disk [21:41] and if that doesn't work, I'd go for checking permissions but that would take some time and experience [21:42] k1l, im trying to repair the grub on my ubuntu server [21:42] I've checked permissions, and some keep resetting to read-only [21:42] can it be done using ubuntu server disc? [21:42] but I'll try reinstalling and I'll let you know what happens [21:43] hi. how do i install propietary radeon drivers in ubuntu? usually when you install ubuntu there is a tool that advice you "hey [21:43] does anyone know a way to enable noise cancellation on ubuntu?
