| TJ- | Bobbo__: Urghh! no Ubuntu entry, and the BootOrder is bad, with non-existent entry 0000 in there twice | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Bobbo__ | Lol | 00:01 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: OK, just as an aside, let me explain something about that article you linked to | 00:01 |
| juniour | echo "hello" | sha256sum and echo "hello" |hashalot -x sha256 . y i got two different hash, plz any one clear my concept i am confused on betwwn checksum and hash | 00:01 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: Yes, learning stuff is good! :P | 00:01 |
| HikaruBG | TJ-, mu sound suddenly disapeared | 00:02 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: UEFI when started from *removable* media obviously can't have an entry in the system's boot menu already, so the firmware looks to a fixed path "EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI" for the boot manager | 00:02 |
| havarka | whats the practiclly difference between UEFI and Legacy? | 00:02 |
| HikaruBG | TJ-, the audio adapter don't show on the sound devices | 00:02 |
| HikaruBG | any suggestions? | 00:03 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: When an OS is installed it tells the UEFI firmware to permanently add an entry into its non-volatile RAM boot menu list. | 00:03 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: With you so far. | 00:03 |
| juniour | echo "hello" | sha256sum and echo "hello" |hashalot -x sha256 . y i got two different hash, plz any one clear my concept i am confused on betwwn checksum and hash | 00:03 |
| TJ- | HikaruBG: Check the hardware, and work on up | 00:03 |
| TJ- | juniour: Use "echo -n" | 00:03 |
| HikaruBG | it is a laptop - the hardware is OK | 00:04 |
| HikaruBG | :) how to check it, TJ- | 00:04 |
| HikaruBG | ? | 00:04 |
| juniour | TJ- wt due to newline??? | 00:04 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Linux uses "efibootmgr" to add the permanent entry - it's one of the last things that the installer will do before the restart | 00:04 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: So, we now know that either the initial installer use of efibootmgr failed to add the entry, or, as you said it started correctly once, the entry got deleted somehow, possibly a firmware bug, possibly something else. | 00:05 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: So, now we have to put the entry back. To do that the best way is to configure the installed system in a chroot, then run the installed system tools inside the chroot to re-add itself. I have a shell script that automates that process I'll give you the link to in a mo | 00:06 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: Snazzy. | 00:06 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: "wget https://iam.tj/projects/misc/chroot-auto.bash" | 00:06 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Then "chmod a+x chroot-auto.bash" | 00:07 |
| Bobbo__ | eww, non-octal flags for chmod. :P | 00:07 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Now, lets un-mount what we did earlier so the script can do its stuff. "sudo umount /target/boot/efi /target" | 00:07 |
| pac1_ | join #expressjs | 00:07 |
| Bobbo__ | unmounted! | 00:08 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: then "sudo ./chroot-auto.bash /target /dev/sda2" | 00:08 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: If all goes well, you'll be at a root shell prompt inside the chroot, and any file-systems mention in its /etc/fstab will have been auto-mounted | 00:09 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: Aye, I'm as root now. | 00:09 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: In particular, we need to be sure the ESP has been mounted to /boot/efi, so do "mount | grep efi" and check that is the case | 00:10 |

| HikaruBG | ? | 00:26 |
| HikaruBG | what does modprobe do, TJ- | 00:26 |
| TJ- | HikaruBG: inserts kernel modules (drivers) into the running kernel, to manage devices | 00:26 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: I think you need to do "efibootmgr --bootorder 0000,2003,2001,2002" | 00:27 |
| HikaruBG | people learn everyday :) | 00:27 |
| HikaruBG | Thanks again TJ- | 00:27 |
| Bobbo__ | mhmm, my internet is playing up, just got like the last 15 messages at the same time. =/ | 00:28 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: In case you missed it then, I think you need to do "efibootmgr --bootorder 0000,2003,2001,2002" | 00:28 |
| Bobbo__ | done that | 00:29 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: After that, a final check "efibootmgr --verbose" to ensure it all looks perfect then you can "exit" the chroot, and reboot to test | 00:29 |

| Tripout | is it usual to get error reports on startup caused by xorg nvidia? | 00:32 |
| Tripout | system is running fine though | 00:33 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: OK... enter UEFI setup, go to the boot menu part, see if Ubuntu is listed. On some, you can only do that by using the manual boot chooser hot-key during start-up | 00:33 |
| Bobbo__ | Um. | 00:33 |
| Bobbo__ | UEFI setup? | 00:33 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: If the entry for ubuntu has gone missing, we know there's a UEFI firmware bug and it isn't saving entries | 00:33 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: I dealt with several cases like that a few months ago | 00:33 |
| eeee | Bobbo__: try f10 and esc | 00:34 |
| eeee | try esc first | 00:34 |
| eeee | look for something along the lines of "boot options" | 00:34 |
| Bobbo__ | You don't mean the boot menu to select a device, do you? | 00:34 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: I have a sneaking suspicion the boot menu entry can only be named "Windows" for it to be kept | 00:34 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Yes... | 00:34 |
| Bobbo__ | just lists the four devices, USB, HDD, ODD and LAN. | 00:35 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: That should also list any boot menu entries - thought you may need to scroll to find them | 00:35 |
| Bobbo__ | And an option to enter the bios. | 00:35 |
| eeee | Bobbo__: it's not the one you can change the order with, it's more of a on the fly pick something to boot off | 00:35 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: OK, so looks like you've got a buggy UEFI firmware. | 00:35 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: Probably, it's a toshiba laptop. XD | 00:36 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: What's the exact model, maybe we can find out something | 00:36 |
| Bobbo__ | Toshiba Satellite S50-A-10W | 00:36 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Not specifically about Toshiba, but there's this: "on the next reboot, the BIOS/UEFI firmware deletes all but the first NVRAM entry for that EFI partition. It seems to allow only one boot entry per EFI partition. Since the linux entry is first, the Windows entry is the one deleted by the BIOS." | 00:37 |

| TJ- | Bobbo__: One other thing to look for; In UEFI Setup menus, look for an option like "Quick Boot" or "Fast Boot". If found, disable it. I think there's one named "Intel Quick Start", too | 00:40 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Also could be called "Smart Boot" | 00:41 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: right... I don't see how that pertains to me, not dual booting. | 00:42 |

| Bobbo__ | Shall I check stuff in the bios like you just said then? | 00:44 |
| jponc_ | exit | 00:44 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Yes, those are easy fixes... the worst case is this is a Toshiba firmware bug and you're stuck | 00:45 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: secure boot: disabled, boot speed: normal, boot mode is UEFI... I don't see anything else really related to it. | 00:47 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: OK ... if there isn't anything there then it must be a bug | 00:48 |
| Bobbo__ | And I can't like... Install ubuntu in CSM to get around it? | 00:48 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Yes, you'll have to reinstall and ensure that the Live ISO boots in CSM mode, not UEFI | 00:49 |
| jimmyxd | hi, u need help for use internet (cable modem) | 00:50 |

| jimmyxd | personnel, can someone help me please? I can not connect to internet, ubuntu detected the mac adress of my network card, I wonder if it was detected, it must activate it .. if you need to install any drive, (something not in ruindows happens) | 00:51 |

| eeee | Bobbo__: use the right arrow | 01:35 |
| eeee | to select it | 01:35 |
| Bobbo__ | Okay, I got another partition selected with no name... Looks like the UEFI partition from the size (512MiB), do I want to keep that selected? | 01:36 |
| eeee | yeah | 01:36 |
| eeee | i was about to tell you to leave it | 01:36 |
| TJ- | eeee: Bobbo__ lets hope these don't overlap | 01:36 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: wat? | 01:37 |
| eeee | they shouldn't though right, cuz efi is at the start, recovery the very end? | 01:37 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: The current ESP was created by Ubuntu; the original ESP would likely have been a different size, and the Recovery partition likely followed it - so if the original ESP were smaller than the current, that Recovery Partition might now start inside the ESP | 01:38 |
| TJ- | eeee: Is Recovery at the end? most I've seen have it at the front, before the bootable Windows partition | 01:39 |
| Bobbo__ | It's at the end | 01:39 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Good :) | 01:39 |
| Bobbo__ | In between the two I've got a 925GiB partition | 01:39 |
| eeee | it's not going to boot anyways, don't wanna be a party pooper :) bu ti doubt it | 01:39 |
| eeee | you're going to have to extract it yourself, most likely | 01:40 |
| === goldenfox is now known as Guest71240 | ||
| TJ- | eeee: We can extract the EFI boot loader from the Recovery partition, and stick it in the ESP as "/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI" and that should be enough | 01:40 |
| Dramors | Hey people, quick question: I'm on 14.04, on top of which I installed gnome 3 (the one provided by the official repos). I want to have it so when I press ctrl+alt+l I will get the same lockscreen I get in unity. Is that possible? | 01:41 |
| eeee | TJ-: that would be awesome then! | 01:41 |
| Bobbo__ | eeee: TJ-: Okay, now like a nub for me? :P | 01:41 |
| eeee | Bobbo__: press enter | 01:42 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: The Recovery file=system contains everything needed to reinstall Windows, but in addition it is itself a minimal bootable Windows installation, so we should be able to get the bootmgr.efi out of it, and put it in the ESP as /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI, which means the firmware will find it and use it to boot from the disk drive | 01:43 |
| eeee | you'll get a list of the partitions, should have the efi and recovery partitions, then press write | 01:43 |
| Bobbo__ | So I should deselect this UEFI partition that's selected atm? | 01:43 |
| Baako | file_put_contents(/var/www/laravel/app/storage/meta/services.json): failed to open stream: Permission denied | 01:44 |
| Baako | i have done chmod -R 755 /app/storage/* | 01:44 |
| eeee | no, we're going to plug the bootmg file from the recovery partition in the efi you have | 01:44 |
| Baako | but still getting the permission error | 01:44 |
| razieliyo | hi | 01:45 |
| swift110_ | http://anthonyvenable110.wordpress.com/2012/04/03/why-i-feel-that-linux-has-better-security-than-windows-updated-version-2/ | 01:45 |
| razieliyo | I just wanted to say that my problem is solved | 01:45 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: You should have the first partition showing something like this: "1 P EFI System 2048 526335 524288 [EFI System]" | 01:45 |
| razieliyo | I just messed it up with libs later trying to run some code of mine with opengl =D | 01:45 |
| razieliyo | first time on 64 bits system... still too weird to me | 01:45 |
| Bobbo__ | eeee: So then select write to write that recov partition? | 01:45 |
| eeee | yeah | 01:46 |
| Bobbo__ | hurmm | 01:46 |
| Bobbo__ | a valid ntfs boot sector must be present in order to access any data; even if the partition is not bootable | 01:46 |
| Bobbo__ | I should screenshare this, might make it easier? | 01:46 |
| Dramors | Ah nvm, I used better searched terms in google and solved this myself | 01:47 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: That sounds like the start of the partition got over-written, so it lost the BPB in sector 0 | 01:47 |
| Bobbo__ | What's BPB? | 01:48 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: BIOS Parameter Block; data at the start of Windows file-systems that describe its layout | 01:50 |
| Bobbo__ | Oh. | 01:50 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ- / eeee: So what do? O_o | 01:51 |
| Ademan_ | TJ-: thanks | 01:51 |
| eeee | Bobbo__: i'd write it | 01:52 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: It should be telling you about the "Boot sector" and "Backup boto sector" - is it? | 01:52 |
| Bobbo__ | TJ-: It said both were okay. | 01:52 |
| Bobbo__ | sectors are identical... Then what I said earlier about the NTFS boot sector being present. | 01:53 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: really? YAY! OK, it's just an informational warning then... carry on | 01:53 |
| Bobbo__ | uhh, I got five options, quit, list, rebuild bs, repair mft and dump ? | 01:53 |
| TJ- | eeee: Are you able to give guidance here? I can't test this I was running it on a good live disk :) | 01:54 |
| eeee | well, when i did it, i ran rebuild bs | 01:55 |
| TJ- | eeee: "bs" being "boot sector" ? | 01:55 |
| eeee | yeah | 01:55 |
| Bobbo__ | Rebuilding boot sector then! | 01:56 |
| iampaul83 | is there a way of making a custom application that i create to run as a service or deamon at start up? | 01:56 |
| eeee | TJ-: ? | 01:56 |
| Bobbo__ | eeee: dump, list, quit? | 01:56 |
| eeee | lol, quit i guess :) | 01:56 |
| Bobbo__ | I'm back at the menu I was before... Fully quit? | 01:56 |
| TJ- | eeee: I find all these "quits" disconcerting ... I'd prefer "back" :) | 01:56 |
| Bobbo__ | I know, I found it confusing at first. | 01:57 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: At some point you'll need to write the currently in-memory partition table to disk | 01:57 |
| Bobbo__ | Um | 01:58 |
| Bobbo__ | I thought I done that by selecting write earlier? | 01:58 |
| plex | Hi everyone. I installed 2 new 4tb HDD in my tower today for media storage. They are both ext4 and have them mounted through fstab. Any idea why I would be struggling to get 7mb/s transfering between them over sata? | 01:58 |
| eeee | Bobbo__: i think he means restart the pc | 01:58 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: OK... I missed that, I was outside | 01:58 |
| TJ- | Bobbo__: Once you've finished with testdisk we'll need to hunt the EFI bootmgr file and install it to the ESP | 01:59 |
| eeee | TJ-: was rebuilding the boot sector the proper choice? | 01:59 |
| eeee | i lol | 01:59 |
| TJ- | eeee: I hope so! that was the boot sector for the NTFS recovery partition | 02:00 |
| eeee | *lol'd cause i was waiting for you to say something about it first | 02:00 |
| TJ- | eeee: blind leading the very tired and blind, here :) | 02:00 |
| Bobbo__ | Yeah, I'm tired... I should really be asleep but I really want this working. =/ | 02:00 |
| Bobbo__ | So.... | 02:02 |
| Bobbo__ | It says I have to reboot for the change to take effect, which makes sense I guess. | 02:02 |
| plex | does anyone know why transfer rates between internal HDD's would be really slow? | 02:04 |
| pasw12 | hello! what you discuss? | 02:05 |
| plex | i'm on ubuntu 14.04 if that helps at all? | 02:06 |
| Bobbo_ | <Bobbo__> So.... | 02:07 |
| Bobbo_ | <Bobbo__> It says I have to reboot for the change to take effect, which makes sense I guess. | 02:07 |
| Bobbo_ | <Bobbo__> \o/ | 02:07 |
| Bobbo_ | <Bobbo__> eeee: Got a recovery partition mounted, so far so good... So I guess I can look for the efi file now. | 02:07 |
| eeee | yeah | 02:08 |
| TJ- | Back... we thought we heard intruders | 02:08 |
| Bobbo_ | Well that was easy. | 02:08 |
| Bobbo_ | bootmgr.efi | 02:08 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: find /path/to/recovery -iname "bootmgfw.efi" | 02:09 |
| eeee | or "*.efi" | 02:09 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: OK, create a mount point for the ESP "sudo mkdir /efi" then "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /efi" | 02:09 |
| eeee | TJ-: is that the file? | 02:11 |
| eeee | cause i have bootmgfw.efi in my /EFI/Microsoft/Boot | 02:11 |
| eeee | as well as bootmgr.efi | 02:11 |
| Bobbo_ | Well.... I'll run the find command now that I've got it remounted. | 02:11 |
| eeee | and efibootmgr -v shows bootmgfw.efi as being used | 02:11 |
| Bobbo_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8314838 | 02:13 |
| TJ- | eeee: Bobbo_ Checking here... but Windows Disk Management doesn't allow access to the ESP! | 02:13 |
| eeee | TJ-: he can use diskpart to mount it, i think | 02:13 |
| TJ- | eeee: No need I hope | 02:13 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: That pastebin; is that of the contents of the Recovery file-system partition? | 02:14 |
| Bobbo_ | find /efi -type f -iname '*.efi' | 02:14 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: You mean that's from the *existing* ESP!?! | 02:14 |
| === shout-user13 is now known as olivierrrrr | ||
| eeee | why's the recovery mounted in /efi ? | 02:14 |
| Bobbo_ | Because TJ- told me do that just now, eeee ? | 02:15 |
| eeee | no he said to mount the esp | 02:15 |
| eeee | :) | 02:15 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-> Bobbo_: OK, create a mount point for the ESP "sudo mkdir /efi" then "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /efi" | 02:15 |
| Bobbo_ | I done those two commands. | 02:15 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: I meant for the ESP to be mounted at /efi/ ... hmmm, it looks like the partition numbers have been changed to be out-of-order! | 02:15 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: OK, first "pastebinit < <(sudo parted /dev/sda unit s print)" | 02:16 |
| HikaruBG | guys, why I can't type anything in the #mysql channel? | 02:16 |
| TJ- | eeee: At least we know the Recovery image has a file for 'simple' UEFI removable media boot already in place | 02:17 |
| eeee | HikaruBG: probably because you need to be registered | 02:17 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-, eeee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8314866 | 02:17 |
| _unreal_ | HikaruBG, is your handle (name) registered | 02:17 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: eeee Argghhhh | 02:18 |
| eeee | what's up? | 02:18 |
| === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan | ||
| HikaruBG | _unreal_, yes it is | 02:18 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: The testdisk operation didn't preserve the existing ESP, the GPT now only has the Recovery partition | 02:18 |
| _unreal_ | then what is happening, are you getting a message from the channel saying: can not send to channel? | 02:19 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Right | 02:19 |
| _unreal_ | if so then there is a channel mode set not allowing you to type and there is nothing you can do about it. unless you are voiced or allowed to talk by an admin (channel op) | 02:19 |
| === qqq is now known as Guest81827 | ||
| HikaruBG | _unreal_ yes, the message is the same, and I re-sent my identity credentials to nickserv, so I can type now | 02:20 |
| HikaruBG | thanks! | 02:20 |
| _unreal_ | good, | 02:20 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: eeee Let's gamble here, that the UEFI firmware knows how to read NTFS. On that assumption we can change the partition type of the single NTFS partition from "msftdata" to "EFI System Partition" and - if we're really lucky - the firmware will boot from it into recovery | 02:20 |
| eeee | sounds good | 02:21 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: You sound like a computer ninja, how do I do that? :D | 02:21 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Break hundreds of systems... then repair them :p | 02:22 |
| Bobbo_ | =/ | 02:22 |
| eeee | gdisk would be the weapon of choice ? :D | 02:22 |
| Bobbo_ | I dislike breaking stuff. XD | 02:22 |
| Bobbo_ | So... gdisk? O_o | 02:23 |
| ponA | hey guys, i just want to know if there is a way to somehow get the output of a terminal transferred via serial port and then transfer the input back | 02:23 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: i think so, sudo gdisk | 02:24 |
| eeee | press 't' , then select the first partition | 02:25 |
| ponA | my idea is that i could start a NAS located at my home with the raspberry pi over the internet, then enter the password to decrypt the data and use it as an online storage | 02:25 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: WE can use sgdisk --typecode | 02:25 |
| eeee | enter ef00 as the hex code | 02:25 |
| Bobbo_ | Wait what | 02:25 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Or go with eeee and do it manually :) | 02:25 |
| Bobbo_ | Which one am I doing? | 02:25 |
| eeee | do sgdisk | 02:25 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, your talking about doing vnc? | 02:25 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: I was about to give you the scripted version of what eeee is taking you through manually; carry on | 02:26 |
| ponA | _unreal not really vnc, more like those really expensive kvm server expansions, so you get a console and can input stuff over the network | 02:27 |
| Bobbo_ | wait | 02:27 |
| Bobbo_ | so | 02:27 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, are you looking to access a storage location like it was a network storage only over the internet? | 02:27 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: TJ- sgdisk --typecode ? | 02:27 |
| Bobbo_ | Anything else? | 02:27 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Ignore my suggestion, follow what eeee is telling you | 02:27 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: sgdisk --typecode:/dev/sda1:{ef00} ? | 02:27 |
| eeee | ( going by the man page ) | 02:27 |
| _unreal_ | or are you looking to have console access ssh? | 02:27 |
| eeee | sorry | 02:27 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: sgdisk --typecode:/dev/sda1:ef00 ? | 02:28 |
| eeee | lol :) | 02:28 |
| Bobbo_ | well | 02:28 |
| Bobbo_ | That might of worked? | 02:28 |
| Bobbo_ | (with no ?, obviously) | 02:28 |
| ponA | _unreal i have the raspi on the internet 24/7,so far it works as a little webserver | 02:28 |
| eeee | run parted again and see what it says | 02:29 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: eeee I think it should have been "sudo sgdisk --typecode=1:EF00" | 02:29 |
| ponA | _unreal now i want a bigger NAS which uses ubuntu to be connected to the internet | 02:29 |
| ponA | _unreal i want to start the NAS device over the internet which would normally require to press a button or use wake on LAN | 02:29 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-, eeee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8314952 | 02:29 |
| ponA | _unreal but it is encrypted, so i will have to enter the password and username | 02:30 |
| _unreal_ | ok last time, WHAT are you planning to do with it? file access? ssh console access? | 02:30 |
| eeee | yeah, that's a negative | 02:30 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: The full command should be "sudo sgdisk --typecode=1:EF00 /dev/sda" | 02:30 |
| Bobbo_ | Says the new partition table will be used at next reboot... Reboot time? | 02:31 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Then do "sudo sgdisk --print /dev/sda" | 02:31 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: No | 02:31 |
| ponA | _unreal so i was just wondering if there is a way to use the serial port of the raspberry pi to boot up the ubuntu system | 02:31 |
| _unreal_ | Omg. | 02:31 |
| bootes | hello. Bit of an issue i have. I have a 12.04 sever running under virtualbox. I did a do-release-upgrade, and from what I saw..it went without a problem. No errors. However when I boot it, the grub menu displays *ubuntu and Advanced Ubuntu options | 02:31 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: The PT hasn't changed in a way that will affect the OS | 02:31 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: verify the partition type is now EFI system partition | 02:32 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-, eeee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8314956 | 02:32 |
| bootes | If I select the first one, it boots into the initramfs promnpt | 02:32 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, so you want to use your rasPI to send a wol signal to an ubuntu computer. | 02:32 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: That looks right, right? | 02:32 |
| erick__ | How can I enter bash commands into terminal without a script? Ex: $test = "test" | 02:33 |
| ponA | _unreal_ the problem is, that the ubuntu computer is encrypted, i would need the raspberry pi to send keyboard inputs to the ubuntu system | 02:33 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, if I was you and your looking to use one system to deal with an other.. I would suggest setting up a router with OPENWRT | 02:33 |
| somsip | erick__: you type them. But that command does not have correct syntax | 02:34 |
| _unreal_ | that way you have a very mature softare platform, very secure and you can add just about any function you could think of. | 02:34 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Yes it does, let's hope the UEFI firmware will read NTFS - EFI SP is generally supposed to be only FAT32 and quite small! Try a reboot | 02:34 |
| erick__ | somsip: Thanks! | 02:34 |
| ponA | _unreal_ i can start the ubuntu server with WOL but then i run into the encryption problem | 02:34 |
| Bobbo_ | Okay, do I need to do anything fancy at boot-time or do I just let it boot from the HDD? | 02:34 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: just ensure it tries to boot the HDD from the boot menu | 02:35 |
| ponA | _unreal_ can i ssh into a machine before any other user is logged in? | 02:35 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, if your trying to access your encrypted server which is behind a router and must be accessed by a second computer behind the router. it would be wise to setup the router with openwrt and cut out the middle man. that way you have less ports to foward and less hassle | 02:36 |
| _unreal_ | ? | 02:36 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Selecting the HDD to boot from at start up drops through to booting from the USB, somehow? O_o | 02:36 |
| erick__ | somsip: What about test = "/proj/" | 02:37 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Could be it doesn't like it so looks to the next device. I said it was a long-shot, to save a lot more set-up work | 02:37 |
| erick__ | somsip: I type it in and am told that test is not a command | 02:37 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: TJ- Yeah, no dice 'ere. | 02:37 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: OK, "Try Ubuntu" again *sigh* | 02:37 |
| ponA | _unreal_ this might be a dumb question as i am new to linux but if i have network access to the ubuntu server, can i just use ssh if it boots up before entering any passwords locally? | 02:37 |
| somsip | erick__: your syntax is still wrong. Find a basic guide on bash commands to help you | 02:37 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: There. | 02:38 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: OK, we have to regain the lost real ESP :) | 02:38 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, you have lost me.... can any one else help ponA ? I have suggested that if he wanted to access an encrypted computer that is on his local network. using one computer behind his router to then access the other computer with the encription would be better done using a router with OPENWRT. and set every thing up from the direct source. | 02:38 |
| Bobbo_ | Back to listdisk? | 02:38 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: This means fiddling with the current partition table again to move the Recovery partition entry from #1 to #2, so we can recreate #1 to point to the real ESP | 02:39 |
| _unreal_ | yes | 02:39 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: No; we'll do this the guru's way :p | 02:39 |
| _unreal_ | yes you can ponA so long as you have an SSH server installed, or if you prever vnc | 02:39 |
| spearhead | ponA, yes you can ssh into a server without having anyone logged in localy | 02:39 |
| _unreal_ | prefer | 02:39 |
| eeee | TJ-: how does it know which file to boot? i mean shouldn't we add the .efi to efibootmgr ? | 02:39 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: less chance of a cock-up :) | 02:39 |
| Bobbo_ | I feel like I should be wearing white, TJ-. | 02:39 |
| stephen123 | sorry name change .. Any help with an initramfs issue? | 02:40 |
| ponA | _unreal_ okay, thats cool, so i just need to send the WOL signal and choose a strong password to establish a secure SSH connection and enter my password | 02:40 |
| ponA | that's cool :) | 02:40 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: You should :) eeee Godd point, I was forgetting everything was offset to /Recovery/RicaTools/ | 02:40 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, trying to add ssh access in a complicated method as your describing using multi computers behind a router over the internet is not going to happen easy, especially with your idea of a method. | 02:40 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: You fancy one more reboot test before we engage surgical gowns? | 02:41 |
| _unreal_ | sort of | 02:41 |
| Bobbo_ | Yes. | 02:41 |
| spearhead | ponA, if the NAS is going to be open to the internet I would disable password login via ssh and go with a key encryption over ssh it is much more secure | 02:41 |
| === Steve_Jobs is now known as Steve_Jobes | ||
| _unreal_ | ponA, first do you have an ssh server installed on that computer, second do you know the syntex to access an SSH server? | 02:41 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: "sudo mkdir /efi/" then "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /efi" | 02:41 |
| Bobbo_ | Let's try some more erroneous hacking before scrubbing up. | 02:41 |
| === Steve_Jobes is now known as Steve_Jobs | ||
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Aye. | 02:42 |
| _unreal_ | also, is wake on lan setup in your ubuntu servers bios? you will also need sleep/suspend setup working in the bios and in the ubuntu os its self | 02:42 |
| ponA | _unreal_ ssh would be easy with portforwarding and so on, i logged into my raspberry pi several times but i thought it would have to be "unlocked" locally first | 02:42 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Then "sudo mkdir /efi/EFI/" followed by "sudo cp -a /efi/Recovery/RicaTools/* /efi/EFI/" | 02:43 |
| === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson | ||
| Bobbo_ | What does -a do for cp? O_o | 02:43 |
| ponA | _unreal_ i still could use the raspberry pi to just "push" the power button of the server | 02:43 |
| _unreal_ | Bobbo_, : man cp | 02:43 |
| Bobbo_ | _unreal_: I know, but it was running the command and cba for tmux, lol. | 02:44 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Done! | 02:44 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Then "ls /efi/EFI/" should show the files have been copied in - "cp -a" is an archive, recursive directories, copy | 02:44 |
| Bobbo_ | Ya, looks like it | 02:44 |
| SP33D | how to remove network device | 02:44 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: looking at your previous pastebin you should see all the same entries as are shown there under "/efi/Recovery/RicaTools/" - http://paste.ubuntu.com/8314838/ | 02:44 |
| SP33D | thats not in interfaces | 02:44 |

| _unreal_ | no | 02:46 |
| eeee | TJ-: why aren't we just adding /recovery/Ricatools/..efi to the efibootmgr ? as is | 02:46 |
| eeee | i mean we're going to have to add that line anyways right | 02:46 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: then show me "pastebinit < <(find /efi/)" | 02:47 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, correct, so long as the ssh server is started up, and the computer has a network connection you can ssh | 02:47 |
| TJ- | eeee: Because "/efi/boot/bootx64.efi" is the 'simple' path that the UEFI firmware will look for on a device to boot it without a custom boot menu entry - as used for removable devices particularly | 02:47 |
| spearhead | ponA, now, if you don't have anyone logged in locally then the user's home directory will not be decrypted by default if you selected to encrypt home directories when you installed ubuntu | 02:47 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8315070 | 02:48 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: "sudo rmdir /efi/EFI" | 02:48 |
| ponA | _spearhead_ but i could decrypt them via ssh, right? | 02:49 |
| ponA | omg i mess up the names, sorry spearhead :) | 02:49 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Aye | 02:50 |
| spearhead | ponA, yes, i don't remember the command right now but I will look it up, but after you logged in over ssh you would run a command which would decrypt the home directory. | 02:50 |
| _unreal_ | spearhead, you have been spearheaded | 02:50 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: eeee This is relying on: "Boot loaders can also be automatically detected by the UEFI firmwares, to enable booting from removable devices. Auto-detection relies on a standardized file path to the operating system loader, depending on the actual architecture to boot. Format of the file path is defined as <EFI_SYSTEM_PARTITION>/BOOT/BOOT<MACHINE_TYPE_SHORT_NAME>.EFI, e.g. /efi/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI" | 02:50 |
| ponA | spearhead no need to look it up, i havent got the ubuntu machine yet | 02:51 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: "sudo umount /efi" then try reboot and hope :) | 02:51 |
| _unreal_ | ponA, if you have like a large key file then you just keep a thumb drive with you with the data you need for decription | 02:51 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: no dice | 02:51 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: *sigh* | 02:52 |
| Bobbo_ | booting into live usb | 02:52 |
| ponA | _unreal_ but it would not work if i want to decrypt via internet, or does it? | 02:52 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: OK, we'll recover the ESP Ubuntu created | 02:52 |
| spearhead | _unreal_, it isn't even that complicated... if I remember right after you log in over ssh you run a command and it asks for your login password then decrypts the home directory like normal | 02:52 |
| _unreal_ | spearhead, I'm talking about if he has like some huge hash key code | 02:53 |
| _unreal_ | 256bit blaa blaa blaa | 02:53 |
| spearhead | you would only need that if you are doing key authentication for ssh... | 02:53 |
| spearhead | and you should be using at least 2048 bit for that... | 02:54 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: So, listdisk? XD | 02:55 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: testdisk? No! We'll do this properly! | 02:55 |
| Bobbo_ | um yeah | 02:55 |

| Bobbo_ | hang on | 02:56 |

| Bobbo_ | well, may need too. | 03:00 |
| Bobbo_ | Anyway | 03:00 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: now I'm figuring out the command to transpose the 2 partitions you should now have, using sgdisk. Can you show me "pastebinit < <(sudo parted print)" in the meantime? | 03:01 |
| spearhead | ponA, it also looks like if you login via ssh and before you run that command you edit your $HOME/.profile and add ecryptfs-mount-private to the end of that file then it will automatically ask for your password and decrypt your home directory | 03:01 |
| ponA | spearhead, thats even nicer! | 03:02 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: First let's change the type of the Recovery partition back to msftdata (0700) with "sudo sgdisk --typecode=1:0700 /dev/sda" then check that yourself with "sudo parted /dev/sda print" to make sure that is done | 03:02 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: Forget the parted thing then? | 03:03 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: show me it once you're done :) | 03:03 |
| Bobbo_ | So change the type then do it? | 03:04 |
| spearhead | ponA, I would test it but the only server that I have that has encrypted home directory has my user logged in locally and I would have to swap around monitors and keyboards to logout to test it... | 03:04 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: I don't want to take steps without verifying the state of the partition table is what I assume it to be | 03:04 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Yes, please | 03:04 |
| _unreal_ | spearhead, cant vnc? | 03:05 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8315142 | 03:05 |
| _unreal_ | or rather dont have vnc setup on that computer? | 03:05 |
| sydney | When will 14.04.2 be out? | 03:05 |
| spearhead | _unreal_, nope, ubuntu server, no gui | 03:05 |
| ponA | spearhead no problem, i'll test it if my hardware arrives, if it does not work i'll come back here... | 03:05 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Good, now let's make #2 an ESP: "sudo sgdisk --typecode=2:EF00" then check that #2 is shown as an EFI System Partition | 03:06 |

| ponA | just out of curiosity as i am just learning about linux file systems... apparently you can unmount /home, then cd to /home and use ls to list all the data that is there (which is empty). what will happen if you use mkdir foo to make a directory in your unmounted /home directory? | 03:22 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8315261/ | 03:23 |
| eeee | TJ-: that's odd, how does it have the /EFI/ubuntu/ files there? | 03:23 |
| TJ- | ponA: You're not doing it in the unmounted file-system, you're doing it the parent file-system. When you re-mount the /home file-system it will 'hide' "/home/foo" until you unmount /home again | 03:23 |
| Blaster | Hey I'm auditing a system and there's a user that can execute sudo without password, but he's not in the sudoers file, or a part of a sudo group. How can this be? | 03:23 |
| neutrino | ponA: it will jsut be there .. and disapear when you mount home again | 03:24 |
| eeee | isn't this a fresh ESP, with all the files from the /recovery ? | 03:24 |
| Blaster | Nevermind. I see that he has a file in the /etc/sudoers.d directory. | 03:25 |
| TJ- | eeee: Bobbo_ had installed 14.04 on the hard disk already; the problem we're trying to fix is that his Toshiba laptop UEFI will not save and keep the Ubuntu boot menu entry. All this work is so Bobbo_ can use Windows (which he'd earlier wiped completely) to install firmware updates that may fix the issue! | 03:25 |
| eeee | yeah i know, but i mean the files, on the new esp, how is /efi/ubuntu/grubx64.efi there? | 03:26 |
| eeee | i mean didnt you just create the esp, and copy the files from the recovery ? | 03:26 |
| TJ- | eeee: Because all I did was recovery the ESP at the start of the disk that testdisk had removed when it rescued the Recovery partition | 03:26 |
| eeee | oh ok, i thought you created a new one | 03:26 |
| eeee | interesting | 03:27 |
| eeee | so if you specify the sectors, it'll just create a partition and whatever is already there is there? | 03:27 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: I just want to triple-check that the "/mnt/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI" is the Windows version, by testing its checksum: "md5sum /mnt/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI /mnt/rec/efi/boot/bootx64.efi" | 03:28 |
| TJ- | eeee: correct | 03:28 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: That command should calculate checksums on those 2 files, and the checksums should be identical | 03:28 |
| Bobbo_ | they match | 03:29 |
| TJ- | eeee: remember when we edit a partition table, we're just editing pointers, not the data in the area of the disk they point to | 03:29 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Yay! | 03:29 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: "sudo umount /mnt/{rec,efi}" .... and try another reboot! | 03:29 |

| bSun0000 | but my gpu (hd3850) have support for h264/vc1 (it works on windows) | 03:36 |
| bSun0000 | wiki/RadeonFeature says, that radeon driver for my card can decode h264 (and i have updated firmware n fresh kernel), but.. | 03:36 |
| bSun0000 | trying to achieve full video decoding for several days in a row, but without success ( | 03:36 |
| bSun0000 | vdpauinfo http://pastebin.com/pFVwyQKn | 03:36 |
| eeee | that's a recovery usb, it'll give you a command prompt, use diskpart to mount the partitions, and dism to extract the image with the right index | 03:36 |
| bSun0000 | dmesg | grep radeon http://pastebin.com/tCPuXkkh | 03:36 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: 2 choices - vcut your losses, install Ubuntu in legacy BIOS mode, but that'll probably prevent any future chance to get the Recovery image installed, which prevents firmware updates like the one we've been trying to facilitate, or 2) take a breather and try again when we're fresh | 03:37 |
| eeee | then create the efi files | 03:37 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: When it says to burn to usb drives, that's basically just saying dd? | 03:37 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: never used it | 03:37 |
| eeee | i guess dd | 03:38 |
| Bobbo_ | I'm thinking it might be easier to burn a win7 DVD from this iso I've got and then install Win7 to do this firmware patch. | 03:38 |
| eeee | if you have a fast connection, it would be pretty easy to restore the pc | 03:38 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: eeee We could do the same thing from the Ubuntu Live, but just create a USB stick with the UEIFI shell on it, which *would* boot since it is a true removable device. I suspect our problem here is that firmware doesn't look for the 'simple' boot-manager on fixed hard disks, only on removable media | 03:39 |
| FuuqUmiist | the update manager is broken, how do i fix it? thanks | 03:39 |
| Bobbo_ | It's 4:40 AM and I'm supposed to be working 'today', done fuck all 'yesterday' because of this laptop, lol. | 03:39 |
| eeee | like if you knew the commands it would take about 20mins | 03:39 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Get some sleep, let's give it ago another time when we're all fresh | 03:39 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: In that time I can create you a small bootable UEFI USB image that I have pre-tested to work | 03:40 |
| eeee | actually it would take like 10mins tops | 03:40 |
| Bobbo_ | I think installing in legacy mode would be much quicker, tbh. XD | 03:41 |
| Bobbo_ | But; this is supposed to be a uni laptop (4 years of computer science), so something 'better' than that might be a good idea... But given how much of a pita it's been I might buy another. | 03:42 |

| somsip | terrastl: use rsync http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/30970/does-rsync-verify-files-copied-between-two-local-drives | 06:27 |
| terrastl | I remember that I could use the command md5sum for this, and them it would generate a txt file containing the list of files and their md5s and then I could run a similar command on the destionation folder. | 06:29 |
| terrastl | I need to use md5sum command | 06:29 |
| peterrooney | terrastl: you don't *need* to use md5sum. may be better off using rsync. | 06:30 |
| terrastl | I know where you are going with this, but trying to explain my special situation would take a long while folks, please. | 06:31 |
| terrastl | I trully need md5sum | 06:31 |
| somsip | terrastl: then you will probably need to search for your own solution. And you'll probably see that many answers will say 'use rsync' | 06:31 |
| terrastl | can you please at least tell me how to store the md5sum of a lot of files into a text file? | 06:32 |
| geirha | terrastl: find . -type f -exec md5sum {} + > /tmp/md5sums # and on the destination: # md5sum -c /tmp/md5sums | 06:32 |

| cynicallemon | fa7ad: i just dont like the lack of customization in gnome now | 07:42 |
| tkat | i know.... | 07:42 |
| pumbaway | if im converting videos using the command line and i use something like avconv -i /home/me/videos/* | 07:43 |
| fa7ad | cynicallemon, cinnamon is pretty customizable afaik. | 07:43 |
| tkat | pumbaway: use handbrake | 07:43 |
| tkat | pumbaway: or vlc, it can do thag | 07:43 |
| tkat | that | 07:43 |
| geirha | pumbaway: for file in ~/Videos/*.avi; do avconv ... -i "$file" "${file%.avi}.mp4"; done | 07:43 |
| cynicallemon | fa7ad: im just getting bored with all the sideways forking which doesnt forward linux | 07:44 |
| tkat | fa7ad: i like the compiz effects | 07:44 |
| tkat | hi | 07:45 |
| geirha | pumbaway: I don't know avconv, so you'll have to figure out the right options and such, but if "$file" is foo.avi, "${file%.avi}.mp4" will be foo.mp4 | 07:45 |
| tkat | pumbaway: or, like i said before, use handbrake or vlc, its easier and uses a gui | 07:45 |
| fa7ad | cynicallemon, http://www.picpaste.com/VfJBHyJa.png this is my desktop on mint 16 cinnamon | 07:46 |

| awestroke | streulma: run on the main/max resolution, and try to change the UI scale instead | 08:09 |

| myeagleflies | how to change number of workspaces in ubuntu 14.04? I've found a website suggesting installation of MyUnity but can't find it | 08:25 |
| fa7ad | myeagleflies, install Unity Tweak TOol | 08:26 |
| myeagleflies | cool. thanks | 08:26 |
| myeagleflies | BTW: I think it sucks there is just one workspace by default | 08:26 |
| fa7ad | myeagleflies, there is 4 by default | 08:27 |
| havarka | fa7ad, which answer should I follow? | 08:27 |
| fa7ad | myeagleflies, press Super(winkey)+S | 08:27 |
| fa7ad | havarka, try the 1sr | 08:28 |
| fa7ad | havarka, try the 1st | 08:28 |
| myeagleflies | fa7ad: and? | 08:28 |
| havarka | fa7ad, dont have a transmission | 08:28 |
| fa7ad | myeagleflies, you can see the 4 workspaces -_- | 08:28 |
| myeagleflies | no, there is just one | 08:28 |
| ObrienDave | myeagleflies, and you can have up to 99 | 08:29 |
| myeagleflies | I had 4 workspaces before in 12.04. but upgraded to 14.04 | 08:29 |
| fa7ad | myeagleflies, well then install unity tweak tool and add some | 08:29 |
| user123321 | Greetings Ubuntu experts. | 08:29 |
| ObrienDave | i have 16 | 08:29 |
| fa7ad | ObrienDave :P | 08:29 |
| myeagleflies | ObrienDave: sure, I'm aware I can have more but after upgrader there is just 1 | 08:29 |
| ObrienDave | so? fix it | 08:30 |
| fa7ad | havarka, what do you use for torrenting? | 08:30 |
| ObrienDave | deluge! | 08:30 |
| havarka | fa7ad, deluge | 08:30 |
| myeagleflies | ObrienDave: well, all I'm saying is it is not user friendly now. it was much easier to change number of workspaces in gnome 2d | 08:30 |
| havarka | :) | 08:30 |
| ObrienDave | myeagleflies, that's why i use XFCE ;) | 08:31 |
| virgosign | does this channel aply to ubuntu studio. . | 08:31 |
| fa7ad | havarka, well then just change the deluge files where it mentions transmission | 08:31 |
| ObrienDave | http://www.picpaste.com/pics/yoda_newbie_sm.1410424079.jpg | 08:31 |

| vinit-ivar | how do i redirect my internet connection through another pc? | 08:32 |
| vinit-ivar | they're all on the same server, but i want one of the PCs to have authorization over the others | 08:33 |
| havarka | fa7ad, ? i dont have a transmission, .torrent files have an association with deluge, but still when i click on magnet-links it doesnt work | 08:33 |
| pumbaway | .wmv is such an annoying format | 08:33 |
| pumbaway | .. blagh | 08:33 |
| === pumbaway is now known as pumba | ||
| ObrienDave | havarka, copy the magnet link, paste into the URL field under add torrent | 08:33 |
| hateball | vinit-ivar: Are you looking to setup a proxy on your LAN, through which all machines must pass to reach the WAN? | 08:34 |
| ObrienDave | havarka, there is a setting to associate magnet links in deluge | 08:34 |
| ObrienDave | havarka, it works ;P | 08:34 |
| havarka | ObrienDave, where is that setting? | 08:34 |
| vinit-ivar | hateball: sort of | 08:35 |
| vinit-ivar | it's over wifi | 08:35 |
| fa7ad | ObrienDave havarka, the link I gave has a clear answer. just wherever the guy mentions transmission, replace it with deluge -_- | 08:35 |
| vinit-ivar | as in, all the PCs are on the network. i need to redirect all but one through the one boss PC | 08:35 |
| vinit-ivar | reroute, rather | 08:35 |
| hateball | !squid | 08:35 |
| ubottu | squid is a caching proxy for the Web. See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SquidGuard See: http://www.squid-cache.org | 08:35 |
| havarka | fa7ad, but i DONT have a deluge install on my pc | 08:35 |
| hateball | vinit-ivar: That might be what you want ^ | 08:35 |
| fa7ad | ObrienDave, havarka, http://askubuntu.com/questions/108925/how-to-tell-chrome-what-to-do-with-a-magnet-link | 08:35 |
| vinit-ivar | thanks, i'll take a look | 08:36 |
| ObrienDave | havarka, preferences, other | 08:36 |
| vinit-ivar | cheers | 08:36 |
| fa7ad | havarka if you don't have deluge, what the f are you trying to achieve? | 08:36 |
| havarka | sorry, i dont have a transmission | 08:36 |
| ObrienDave | fa7ad, she said she has deluge. chill dude | 08:36 |
| havarka | word mistake | 08:37 |
| hateball | vinit-ivar: Oh, and you need it to be transparent unless you have control over all the clients http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/InterceptionProxy | 08:37 |
| havarka | fa7ad, so which of those answer should i do?! | 08:38 |
| vinit-ivar | could you elaborate? | 08:38 |
| ObrienDave | havarka, whichever works for you. | 08:39 |

| tralf | Hi all. I am having the following issue and looking for guidance: I am trying to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04. After disabling all third party PPAs I finally got the software update to complete and for the update manager to prompt me to upgrade. However, when it tried to upgrade it said "No new release found." Running do-release-upgrade started to work, but then aborts saying "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. This can be caused by: | 13:42 |
| tralf | [...] * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu" | 13:42 |
| tralf | Does this mean I need to purge all third part software? | 13:43 |
| JarpseB | Third party software is installed, wouldn't make a difference to disable the PPA | 13:43 |
| tralf | so i should purge all third party software? | 13:43 |
| JarpseB | Not sure on that | 13:43 |
| tralf | disabling them just allowed the update to complete, but I understand it doesn't actually remove the software, and it seems the presence of the software prevents upgrade | 13:44 |

| fes | cfhowlett: thank you so much. I really appreciated the help. | 14:32 |
| pero | considering there was no way to go backwards in the installation after selecting 'alongside', i thought that whatever it would do wouldnt be destructive | 14:32 |

| pero | that was there too - i was curious to see what 'alongside fedora' would look like | 14:48 |
| pero | but unfortunately after selecting it i couldnt go back - and there was no preview | 14:48 |
| pero | my intention was to do the partitioning myself | 14:48 |
| mjayk | strange im sure there was a warning last time I did that, either a bug or the installer has changed | 14:49 |

| japro | well, it does seem to have the module but not the firmware | 15:02 |
| japro | i tried 14.04 before which kinda has the stuff but works catastrophically bad | 15:02 |
| japro | as in i get <10% of the bandwidth and it completely nukes the local wifi... | 15:03 |

| daftykins | japro: please type in full sentences rather than all these separate lines. | 15:04 |

| daftykins | vite: depends if you installed any proprietary graphics drivers really | 15:52 |
| jazzed | quick question: I ran debootstrap to install ubuntu 12.04 32-bit on a 64-bit system. When I chroot into the new rfs and do uname it still shows x86_64 not i386. Is that right? | 15:53 |
| sakamop | Are there any settings I can use to reduce physical memory usage? I don't want to change DE or application software. I don't mind losing performance to save memory. | 15:53 |
| circ-user-8fdEt | switch to arch? lol. | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | sakamop: use lighter applications then | 15:53 |

| circ-user-8fdEt | get lxde | 15:54 |
| mjrosenb | vite: it depends /how/ old. There is a decent chance that networking won't work properly, as daftykins said, graphics may not work. if you have an /ancient/ system, you probably won't have sata support... | 15:54 |
| ActionParsnip | mystogan: what happened to generate the issue? | 15:54 |

| mystogan | ActionParsnip, i just installed ubuntu 14.04 but i get the message as your system is running in low graphics mode? | 15:55 |

| xikkub | mystogan: does ctrl+alt+f7 do anything | 15:55 |

| sakamop | mjrosenb: That's with a browser open etc. The base desktop, no apps, is just about 3/4 GB | 15:57 |
| daftykins | netameta: find where it is and delete it, then in future don't compile from source again on a packaged distribution (: | 15:57 |
| xikkub | mystogan: tty7 is where xorg usually runs, assuming xorg is running | 15:57 |

| mjrosenb | sakamop: as of ~6 months ago, mozilla actually had better memory usage than chrome in a number of tests </shameless plug> | 16:01 |
| mystogan | ActionParsnip, i will have to try it in recovery mode.Can i? | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mystogan: as long as there is a web connection, yes :) | 16:01 |
| mystogan | ok ActionParsnip | 16:01 |
| mjrosenb | sakamop: and limiting the number of open file descriptors will either have no effect on memory usage, *or* will cause programs to fail spontaneously. | 16:01 |
| mjrosenb | sakamop: if you can manage to get everything to use hugeTLB, that'll cut down on memory usage. | 16:02 |
| sakamop | mjrosenb: Fair enough but I'm locked into Chrome due to Google book purchases. :-) I understand what you are saying though - there's no easy way out without changing user apps or DE. I'd prefer to change DE or buy a new laptop. | 16:02 |
| ActionParsnip | sakamop: could switch to Midori | 16:02 |
| ashadiqi | daftykins: yes i can do the backup, will it be re-applicable after i re-install? | 16:02 |

| mjrosenb | AlonzoTG: because it'll keep them busy, and not asking questions for a few hours :-p | 16:10 |
| ashadiqi | mjrosenb: I like my ubuntu just like this, but i made some mistakes in partitioning the hard drive, i made it too small for ubuntu system | 16:11 |
| kill_-9_1 | mjrosenb: For GNU/Linux? (#intel-gfx just made a dialog) | 16:11 |
| xangua | AlonzoTG: probably because they give little to no information to help them to begin with, just like your question: "why did it break?" | 16:11 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: How big is this image? | 16:11 |
| AlonzoTG | I think someone decided that ALSA was too reliable and decided to replace it with a sack of turd that they could have fun fixing... | 16:12 |

| Toadstool2 | i also tried "/connect irc.network.net:6665" | 16:14 |
| Toadstool2 | that dosent work either | 16:14 |

I added two unix user, then added them as samba users and a directory for the first user was created and is accessable. A directory for the second user was never created. I created the directory for such user but I cant see it on a windows machine. Anyone have an idea why? | 16:37 |
| theadmin | fartface: Doesn't Evince (the default Ubuntu document reader) handle epub? | 16:37 |
| fartface | Action: I've used calibre in the past as well, it's good for conversions, but the reader itself isn't too great. Specifically looking for one that can handle annotations. I might end up having to use Calibre as I'm pretty sure it'll be the only one that'll handle annotations. | 16:37 |
| fartface | theadmin: Evince wasn't on my install, I'll give it a shot one sec | 16:38 |
| sakamop | fartface: calibre, or you can run something like Foxit under wine | 16:38 |
| sakamop | fartface: evince is, it's the defautl reader | 16:38 |
| fartface | sakamop: foxit does epub? | 16:38 |
| minus1999 | Im using the latest ubunu server os | 16:38 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: did you use smbpasswd -a username to set the password for the username? | 16:39 |
| fartface | theadmin: Doesn't look like Evince handles epub | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: are the clients going to be linux based too? | 16:39 |
| minus1999 | yes | 16:39 |
| sakamop | fartface: dunno about the free one, but they have a reader | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: no windows? | 16:39 |
| minus1999 | windows and mac os x | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: oic | 16:39 |
| fartface | Though on that note, does anyone know how to have document location persistence with Evince? Like if I open a PDF, and close it, and then reopen the PDF, it'll be in the same location as when I closed it? | 16:40 |
| theadmin | fartface: Sorry, I must have confused formats | 16:40 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: windows is holding you back here :( | 16:40 |
| fartface | theadmin: No worries, I appreciate the help :) | 16:40 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: is the 2nd folder defined in /etc/samba/smb.conf ? | 16:40 |
| minus1999 | the only differnce i can think of is that i added a -m when i added the first user | 16:40 |
| minus1999 | neither of the folders are in the smb.conf | 16:41 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: The UEFI bootable image will be very small; probably around 2MB | 16:41 |
| sakamop | fartface: evince does that with pdf, but i've not tried epub | 16:41 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: then how did you make the shares? | 16:41 |
| daftykins | minus1999: you should be mounting samba shares manually, not relying upon GUIs to 'see' shares | 16:41 |
| Bobbo_ | oh wow | 16:41 |
| minus1999 | Im not sure. The first one was share from the start | 16:42 |
| minus1999 | the second one... | 16:42 |
| minus1999 | well i had to manually create the directory | 16:42 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: if you want to add folders you need to define them in smb.conf and they will be presented when the server is scanned for shares | 16:43 |
| minus1999 | Ah. Ill add them manually then. | 16:43 |
| ActionParsnip | minus1999: plase note, trying to get samba to play nice with NTFS is a pain | 16:43 |
| fartface | sakamop: Was it a setting? Because it's definitely not behaving like that by default for me. | 16:44 |

| minus1999 | is there a better way to work with windows, file sharing wise? | 16:45 |

| sakamop | fartface: Unsure, let me look. | 16:47 |

| fartface | sakamop: hmm, strange it's not working for me. I don't think it can open epub at all. I'll take a look around the settings | 16:49 |
| tongl | It starts normally and it shows me optuons : language, try ubuntu, install ubuntu | 16:49 |

| rangeles2276 | How can I reset the display setting on Ubuntu 14.04 using the Nouveau Driver? | 17:24 |
| optraz | this is a general question, what are option you can do when you have a lot of emails in evolution mailclient other than delete them? | 17:24 |
| rangeles2276 | I have tried doing the failsafe reset from the recovery but nothing seems to work | 17:25 |
| rangeles2276 | this happened after I removed the proprietary Nvida Driver since for some odd reason it wont work with my 27" Dual Link DVI display | 17:26 |
| rangeles2276 | and now all I get is a 800x600 resolution and I can't fix it | 17:27 |
| rangeles2276 | I've been at this since 10am, can someone please help | 17:27 |
| eeee | which driver were you using? | 17:27 |
| === user_ is now known as c107 | ||
| rangeles2276 | right now I'm using the default that comes with 14.04 Nouveau | 17:28 |

| squinty | optraz: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution Online Support First consult the Evolution Manual. | 17:29 |
| rangeles2276 | @c107 the default driver is install down but I can't get the highest resolution for my display | 17:29 |

| rangeles2276 | @c107 I removed it already but nothing, is like the system won't recognize the new driver | 17:31 |
| rangeles2276 | I can't install nvidia-current because I have a Dual Link DVI display and it won't work | 17:31 |
| Marsoupial | I need help using insmod to load a driver without rebooting. Anyone know how? | 17:32 |
| rangeles2276 | I already tried everything possible when it comes to Nvidia so I gave up. Ubuntu does not support the DualLink DVI hardware for some weird reason | 17:32 |

| TJ- | Bobbo_: Here's the recovery image build script for you to test. Image will be 64MB. After running the script, write the resulting image file to a USB flash device with "dd if=<filename> of=/dev/sdX bs=1M", then try booting with it. If you're lucky, you'll end up in the UEFI Tianocore v2 Shell. Start with "help". I'll be back a little later. http://iam.tj/projects/misc/uefi-build-rescue-image.sh | 19:09 |

| mattxtn | This may be a silly question but when I enable VT-x in bios to run VirtualBox do I get a grub menu on reboot? I can still boot right into xubuntu so it's not a big deal I'm just curious about it. | 19:12 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: This script is trying to invoke dd for me? O_o | 19:14 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: For creating the image itself, yes | 19:14 |
| Bobbo_ | dd: invalid status flag: `none' | 19:14 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: what version of Ubuntu is that on? | 19:15 |
| brontos | mjrosenb, Do you have a link you can share for eastag? | 19:15 |
| Bobbo_ | Precise, I'm running it on my main computer. :3 | 19:15 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Ahhh! You may need to run it from a UEFI installation or Live ISO booted in UEFI mode, so it can also install GRUB-EFI components | 19:16 |
| mjrosenb | brontos: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/EasyTAG | 19:16 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: re-download it, I've removed that status=none option to dd | 19:16 |

| Beldar | mattxtn, tapping the shify key brings up the grub menu on single installs, should work in vbox. | 19:19 |
| mattxtn | Beldar I ment when I rebooted my computer not a vbox. | 19:19 |
| Beldar | mattxtn, shift is the key vbox or a regular install. | 19:20 |
| mattxtn | Beldar, oh I just found it weird because my grub is set to go right to xubuntu and I wasn't holding shift. Only happens when I enable the virtualization in bios. | 19:21 |
| Beldar | mattxtn, On single installs it does not show, you can set it to if needed. | 19:22 |
| mattxtn | Beldar, alright I'll tool around with it some. That is till my curiosity kills the cat. | 19:22 |

| ikonia | shorewall is dead | 19:25 |
| minus1999 | Really? Im following a article on how to set up a web server. | 19:26 |
| ikonia | ....web server is not shorewall | 19:26 |
| rww | use ufw | 19:26 |
| minus1999 | its from 2009... So what firewall would you recommend? | 19:26 |
| ikonia | shorewall is just iptables | 19:27 |
| ikonia | it's an interface to iptables | 19:27 |
| ikonia | use iptables, as rww the ufw is what ubuntu uses | 19:27 |
| minus1999 | huh. | 19:27 |
| minus1999 | Im going to assume ubutu server has a firewall already | 19:28 |
| minus1999 | ... right? | 19:28 |
| ikonia | I've just said it.... | 19:28 |
| compdoc | not enabled | 19:28 |
| ikonia | it's just a front end to iptables, ubuntu has the same concept, a front end to iptables called ufw | 19:29 |
| pellota | why do you need firewall? | 19:29 |
| Pici | It is enabled, it just doesn't have any rules. | 19:29 |

| compdoc | same | 19:29 |
| minus1999 | does anyone have a more recent article on using ubuntu as a webserver? | 19:29 |

| eeee | you can restore windows in a few mins | 19:54 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: I don't have any USB thingy big enough. My USB flash drives are really freaking weird (they have two physical partitions) and the laptop will only check the first (annoyingly smaller one). | 19:54 |
| Bobbo_ | I've been installing ubuntu from an SD card in a usb sd card reader. | 19:54 |
| TJ- | eeee: The issue is, the firmware won't accept/keep the non-Windows entry. The recovery of Windows Recovery was simply to be able to install updated firmware in case that solves the issue :) Maybe not worth it! | 19:55 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: idea | 19:55 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: why don't you use vm, and use a raw disk image | 19:55 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: wat? | 19:55 |
| eeee | with the iso loaded you could modify the hdd | 19:55 |
| eeee | TJ-: would this work? | 19:55 |
| TJ- | eeee: I'm a bit lost as to what you're suggesting... expand please? | 19:56 |
| Bobbo_ | Unless... Running the bios thing in wine ain't gunna work is it? :P | 19:56 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: I tested the bootable UEFI image built by my script in a Virtual Machine here, and it works as expected | 19:57 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: No - the Flash update tools need Windows device drivers | 19:57 |
| eeee | Bobbo_: TJ- virtualbox can modify the hard disk with full access to it, using a raw disk image file | 19:57 |
| eeee | http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#rawdisk | 19:57 |
| eeee | if he loads the iso in the vm, and uses the raw disk image file as the hdd, then he could use diskpart and dism to extract the image to the hdd | 19:58 |
| eeee | ( the recovery image ) | 19:58 |
| TJ- | eeee: We don't want to modify the HDD, we want to re-flash updated firmware that just may fix the issue, but there's no changelog against the newer UEFI firmware releases for that Toshiba laptop, to indicate it would | 19:58 |
| Bobbo_ | eeee: This laptop is fully enclosed like some ridiculous thing. To get the HDD out I'd need to pull it apart (and I would of put in the new HDD I bought if that weren't the case, avoiding basically all of these issues). | 19:58 |
| TJ- | eeee: Possibly yes, but I think Bobbo_ is trying to cut his lost time; a CSM install will work fine | 19:59 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: I can just use the normal image and set the bios to csm boot for that, right? | 19:59 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: Yes | 19:59 |

| Bobbo_ | RobertJDohnert: It's poopy, both of them. :P | 20:01 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ-: oh. | 20:01 |
| RobertJDohnert | Bobbo what do you use? | 20:03 |
| TJ- | Bobbo_: So you'd do PC > boot USB > Try Ubuntu > Download Windows Recovery ISO Image > "apt-get install virt-manager" > create VM with Windows Recovery ISO image > Attach PC's HDD as a raw device to VM > Start VM > boot from CDROM > do recovery | 20:03 |

| john38 | squinty, i guess chromium | 20:22 |
| RobertJDohnert | john38 | 20:23 |
| squinty | john38: google for pepper flash and "google chrome". there is some method of pulling pepper flash from chrome to use with chromium etc | 20:23 |
| john38 | squinty, i've installed pepper flash plugin nonfree but i still cant watch any pages with that require flash | 20:23 |

| XxxMossyHacksxxX | Who all is using blackbuntu | 20:24 |
| arthurfiggis | Google Chrome (the closed-source version you download from their website) actually has flash integrated, you don't need to install it separately :) | 20:24 |
| arthurfiggis | if you're using chromium i'm not sure what you would have to do | 20:24 |
| john38 | arthurfiggis, so just download google chrome for ubuntu? | 20:24 |
| squinty | XxxMossyHacksxxX: taking a survey? not really on topic for this channel :P | 20:24 |
| rberg_ | the sooner we can be done with flash videos the better for everyone | 20:25 |
| arthurfiggis | john38: that's what i did...they have an ubuntu package that you can download, that adds a repository that keeps it updated :) | 20:25 |
| XxxMossyHacksxxX | :D okay | 20:25 |

| Bobbo_ | eeee / TJ- : Is there any point in me keeping this windows recovery partition around or should I just remove it? | 20:26 |
| arthurfiggis | john38: there should be a link for a .deb file for chrome there, and then from a console you can just sudo dpkg -i install ./filename.deb in the usual way...hmm, the plugin for firefox seems to still be updated as far as i know? but if you want to make sure you're up to date and you don't mind using the closed-source version of the browser, chrome works great | 20:27 |
| squinty | Bobbo_: if you have no need to reinstall windows (or have separte install disks) then there is no need to keep it | 20:27 |
| arthurfiggis | i use firefox and the official flash plugin, that seems to be updated and i haven't had a site not work :) but | 20:27 |
| john38 | arthurfiggis, im installing chrome now..... | 20:27 |
| Bobbo_ | I was just wondering if they tell me there's some fancy thing I could try if /this/ fails. | 20:27 |

| arthurfiggis | squinty: the only thing i use flash for any more is youtube...it's kind of like java, the relevance of it (in my own case, not everyone's!) has gotten very, very low :) if everything on youtube was available in html5 compatible video i'd just not bother with flash | 20:30 |

| Nitrophysix | Hi, Basicly, Ive pointed my domain to my linix server using custom dns records with namecheap, but it doesnt seem to be working | 20:50 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: what domain? | 20:50 |
| Nitrophysix | penguinmedia.co.uk | 20:50 |
| Nitrophysix | Ive setup bind9 as the dns server, apache as the webserver | 20:50 |
| Nitrophysix | for the first time in my life i feel useless :P | 20:51 |
| Nitrophysix | Im a bit rusty with linux its been a while | 20:51 |
| Nitrophysix | Thanks in advance. | 20:51 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: firewall blocking port 53 UDP inbound? | 20:51 |

| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: What did you try to do? How did you try to do it? What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? | 20:51 |
| Nitrophysix | Give me a second, I don't think iptables is installed by default... | 20:52 |
| === Extreme_ is now known as Extreme- | ||
| Nitrophysix | I'm pretty sure there is no firewall installed | 20:52 |
| Nitrophysix | Ill pastebin | 20:52 |
| Nitrophysix | give me a sec | 20:52 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: did you have the domain's DNS server(s) added to the registry? | 20:53 |
| Nitrophysix | http://pastebin.com/78ud68yb | 20:53 |
| Nitrophysix | thats my zone file | 20:53 |

| Nitrophysix | Hmmm.. | 20:53 |
| Nitrophysix | Ohh | 20:53 |
| Nitrophysix | I managed to get this working on a windows server, but moved over the linux for the speed | 20:54 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: Is bind even listening on port 53? | 20:54 |
| Nitrophysix | Yes | 20:54 |
| jwr__ | is there any tool that will let me scan a server and see if any of my installed packages have known vulnerabilities? | 20:54 |

| ikonia | gsvitron: tone down the language | 20:56 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: Even if it were responding, you don't have any entries. | 20:56 |
| busch | Whoops. Im on 12.10, not 12.04 | 20:56 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: yr doin it rong. | 20:56 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: depending on flash on linux is a bad move, | 20:56 |
| mjrosenb | Nitrophysix: *definitely | 20:56 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: Are you going to have multiple external addresses? | 20:57 |
| Nitrophysix | just penguinmedia.co.uk | 20:57 |
| gsvitron | well right now linux is my only option | 20:57 |
| Nitrophysix | I figured im doing it wrong, as said a little rusty :) | 20:57 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: It's not listening to 53 on 37.187.236.121 | 20:57 |
| gsvitron | no alternative. so i need help getting it working if anyone can. it would be very appreciated | 20:57 |
| Nitrophysix | Possible firewall installed by default, let me search the system | 20:58 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: Ok, you don't need a custom DNS then. | 20:58 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: what sites do you need to view ? | 20:58 |
| === iShaggy is now known as shaggysi0 | ||
| === shaggysi0 is now known as iShaggy | ||
| gsvitron | www.explorelearning.com | 20:58 |
| Nitrophysix | I want custom DNS address's :) | 20:58 |
| mjrosenb | gsvitron: how is it not working? | 20:58 |
| gsvitron | i need to access a gizmo | 20:58 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: All you need to do is use their nameservers, and add an A (and possibly MX) record for *.penguinmedia.co.uk at 37.187.236.121 | 20:58 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: No, you don't want custon DNS servers, that's overkill. | 20:59 |
| gsvitron | well in the software center i downloaded flash but every time I try and use something that requires it, it says plugin needed | 20:59 |
| gsvitron | ive tried firefox and chromium | 20:59 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: You only want that if you hvae multiple external IPs and multiple public hostnames. | 20:59 |
| Nitrophysix | Id still like to use custom DNS servers :) | 20:59 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: looking at that site I suspect you maybe out of luck | 20:59 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: They serve no purpose. | 20:59 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: nmap says: "53/udp closed domain" | 20:59 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: it looks like it needs flash player 12 or greater for the videos or "gizmos" | 20:59 |
| Nitrophysix | Thanks TJ, taking a look now :) | 21:00 |
| gsvitron | well, it would be nice to have flashplayer for other reasons as well | 21:00 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: nmap doesn't show it open either, and it doesn't respond to queries, and a blank zone file isn't going to respond anyway. | 21:00 |
| gsvitron | captchas dont load...neither does youtube | 21:00 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: depending flash on linux = failure | 21:00 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: flash on linux is dead, | 21:00 |
| ikonia | so even getting it working on 1 site, there will be 10 more that it won't work on | 21:01 |
| Nitrophysix | The zone file has penguinmedia.co.uk | 21:01 |
| genii | Nitrophysix: For line 6 I would put something more like: 2014091101 instead of 2 | 21:01 |
| Nitrophysix | ok no worries | 21:01 |
| Nitrophysix | Give me a sec, trying to keepup here and there :p | 21:01 |
| gsvitron | so basically I'm screwed? | 21:01 |

| drox | WHY? | 21:02 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: THe purpose of DNS is to translate the human-readable name to the IP address. You don't have any IP addresses in the zone file. | 21:02 |
| ikonia | gsvitron: depends on your perspective, but from my chair, trying to use flash on linux is a dead end, | 21:02 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: Are you sure the IP address of ns1. terminates on a Linux host? It looks suspiciously like a Windows host | 21:02 |
| stv | hi | 21:02 |
| jhutchins | TJ-: I got the Ubuntu default page for apache on port 80. | 21:02 |
| Nitrophysix | 37.187.236.121 | 21:02 |
| gsvitron | well I've done it before. I used to have Ubuntu on my old laptop and there was never any issues | 21:02 |
| ikonia | why are you trying to run a dns server when you don't know what you're doing | 21:02 |
| Nitrophysix | is the server itself | 21:02 |
| ikonia | why not use your ISP's name servers | 21:02 |
| Nitrophysix | I will run whatever i like, when i like thank you. | 21:03 |
| jhutchins | ikonia: No, he needs to use the registrar's nameserver, with an A record for his web server and maybe an MX record. | 21:03 |
| busch | I am on 12.10 right now and want to upgrade to the latest LTS. I edited the /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and changed Prompt to lts. When i enter "do-release-upgrade -c": No new release found | 21:03 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: I do this with about a dozen domains right now. | 21:03 |
| Nitrophysix | awsome :) | 21:03 |
| ikonia | jhutchins: then why are we looking at port 53 ?? | 21:03 |
| ikonia | I don't understand why he's installed bind ? | 21:03 |
| Nitrophysix | any suggestions ikonia | 21:04 |
| Nitrophysix | ? | 21:04 |
| jhutchins | ikonia: Because he has misunderstood the process and believes he needs to run his own DNS, which really won't work the way he thinks it will. | 21:04 |
| Nitrophysix | It worked fine with Windows Server 2008 | 21:04 |
| Nitrophysix | Ive oviously configured something incorrectly with linux. | 21:04 |
| jhutchins | Nitrophysix: Windows is broken. | 21:04 |
| ikonia | if you can't run dns infrastructure - don't do it | 21:04 |
| Nitrophysix | Please. | 21:04 |
| ikonia | trust people who do, eg: your isp | 21:04 |
| Nitrophysix | If you can shutup, do it. | 21:05 |
| ikonia | Nitrophysix: drop the attitude | 21:05 |
| Nitrophysix | You drop the attitude | 21:05 |
| ikonia | running insecure/miss-configured dns servers is a bad thing for the internet | 21:05 |
| * Pici sighs | 21:05 | |
| ikonia | so if you really don't understand it, trying to actually run on is a bad move | 21:05 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: Have you actually checked by testing on localhost that bind is listening on port 53 and returning answers? | 21:05 |
| Nitrophysix | I don't care, Im still learning with linux. | 21:05 |
| Nitrophysix | You didnt learn from thin air did you? | 21:05 |
| Nitrophysix | Im running tests now to see if i can find the problem. | 21:06 |
| ikonia | Nitrophysix: how many name servers are you currenting running | 21:06 |
| TJ- | Nitrophysix: You're probably better off in #ubuntu-server for this kind of issue | 21:06 |
| ikonia | currently | 21:06 |

| BerenBarahir | Is it possible to run Google Chrome with Kubuntu 14.04? | 21:07 |
| Nitrophysix | Im a php programmer building a few apps with require a bit of power, now I have windows server skills, but linux is a little rusty for me. | 21:07 |
| ikonia | Nitrophysix: how many name servers are you actually running for this domain ? | 21:07 |
| Nitrophysix | 1 | 21:07 |
| BerenBarahir | I could not find Google Chrome in the Muon software Centre either | 21:07 |
| ikonia | Nitrophysix: a lot of registrars won't update the dns records unless you are running more than 1 | 21:08 |
| Nitrophysix | Well, they did because as said it was working with windows server, with an active dns service. | 21:08 |
| Nitrophysix | As said, I moved to linux for speed. | 21:08 |
| ikonia | there will be no speed improvement | 21:08 |
| Nitrophysix | I'm out, your useless. | 21:09 |

| BerenBarahir | Could you recommend a terminal command to install Google Chrome? | 21:19 |
| TJ- | eeee: "-h" may leave the system running; I don't think that's the expectation | 21:19 |
| BerenBarahir | Since I cannot install Google Chrome using the software Centre | 21:19 |
| EiriksUbuntu | isnt it called chromium in linux? | 21:20 |

| BerenBarahir | thanks TJ, I"ll try it | 21:20 |
| mjrosenb | EiriksUbuntu: chrome also exists, but why would you want to use it? | 21:20 |

| EiriksUbuntu | i do want to move /home/goodin/Downloads/scripts to /home/goodin/.xchat2 | 21:21 |
| k1l | EiriksUbuntu: then do move them | 21:21 |
| jhutchins | TJ-: I think dpkg -i only works if you have the .deb downloaded. | 21:21 |
| mjrosenb | EiriksUbuntu: you probably don't. | 21:22 |
| EiriksUbuntu | i tried and got rejected, maybe i'm not doing something right | 21:22 |
| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: mv | 21:22 |
| jhutchins | mv is also used to rename. | 21:22 |
| BerenBarahir | I did download it, TJ, this is the file I downloaded: google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb | 21:22 |
| gavin__ | mjrosenb: Yes. I've tried with chromium and firefox several times over the past week. even tried uninstalling and reinstalling hoping that it would get rid of the bug on its own. | 21:23 |
| EiriksUbuntu | i tried but it don't want to move | 21:23 |
| jhutchins | BerenBarahir: Then as TJ said, dpkg -i | 21:23 |
| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: did you use sudo? | 21:23 |
| EiriksUbuntu | yes | 21:24 |
| k1l | no sudo needed to move inside the home | 21:24 |
| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: It helps a lot to tell us what happened rather than just "it didn't work". | 21:24 |
| mjrosenb | gavin__: ok, uhh, you should find out what files were installed by it. | 21:24 |
| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: Sorry, mixing nics. | 21:24 |
| EiriksUbuntu | 152 sudo mv /home/goodin/downloads/scripts /home/goodin/.xchat2 | 21:24 |
| mjrosenb | gavin__: you'll first want dpkg -s flash to find out the actual name of the package that was installed. | 21:24 |
| EiriksUbuntu | nothing happened | 21:24 |
| gavin__ | mjrosenb: how do I do that? | 21:24 |
| mjrosenb | EiriksUbuntu: if it printed nothing that does'nt mean nothing happened. | 21:25 |

| ukiwi | Greetings! I'm having a really hard time mapping the four colour buttons on my Logitech Harmony Smart Control Remote to scan-codes. I can see that the kernel is receiving these events when I 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/hid/events' (03 f5 01 00 00). I'm then editing my /lib/udev/hwdb.d/custom.hwdb with the right USB vendor/model (keyboard:usb:v046DpC150*) and my entries should be like other similar events - e.g. 'KEYBOARD_KEY_c0069'. | 21:26 |
| ukiwi | After running 'udevadm hwdb --update && udevadm trigger && udevasm control --reload' they're still not working. I suspect my raw events (03 f5 01 00 00 etc) aren't the same as 'c009a' etc. Can anyone help? | 21:26 |

| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: So you want scripts to become a subdirectory of .xchat | 21:29 |
| jhutchins | EiriksUbuntu: mv scripts .xchat/ | 21:30 |
| BerenBarahir | Do I need to go to the directory where the file is stored using "CD" command, and then try that dpkg -i command again? | 21:30 |
| jhutchins | BerenBarahir: Not if you use the full path to the file. | 21:30 |

| BerenBarahir | I"m not sure how to write the full path, but I know where the file is located: it's in my downloads folder | 21:31 |
| eeee | marandi: apt-get upgrade -y > /path/to/file 2>&1 | 21:31 |

| mjrosenb | marandi: it tells standard error to go t othe same place as standard out. | 21:32 |
| TJ- | BerenBarahir: "sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb" | 21:32 |
| eeee | marandi: use >> instead, that will append it to the file instead of overwritting | 21:32 |

| eeee | marandi: if you use > , every time the command runs it will overwrite the existing file with the results, (so you'll only have the last command's results there), if you use >> it will continue the file, adding the new results to it | 21:36 |

| BerenBarahir | TJ- It worked, but I got some errors during the installation because of the following problem..... | 21:38 |
| BerenBarahir | google-chrome-stable depends on libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.22.0); however: | 21:38 |
| BerenBarahir | Package libpango1.0-0 is not installed. | 21:38 |
| ukiwi | Greetings! I'm having a really hard time mapping the four colour buttons on my Logitech Harmony Smart Control Remote to scan-codes. I can see that the kernel is receiving these events when I 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/hid/events' (03 f5 01 00 00). I'm then editing my /lib/udev/hwdb.d/custom.hwdb with the right USB vendor/model (keyboard:usb:v046DpC150*) and my entries should be like other similar events - e.g. 'KEYBOARD_KEY_c0069'. | 21:38 |
| ukiwi | After running 'udevadm hwdb --update && udevadm trigger && udevasm control --reload' they're still not working. I suspect my raw events (03 f5 01 00 00 etc) aren't the same as 'c009a' etc. Can anyone help? | 21:38 |

| BerenBarahir | dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 21:38 |
| BerenBarahir | Is this problem related to the fact that I am running Kubuntu on a live CD? | 21:39 |
| marandi | eeee: good to know buddy , thanks alot | 21:39 |
| Ben64 | BerenBarahir: no, because you're missing the package it just told you you are missing. why are you installing from a deb anyway instead of like... the google PPA | 21:39 |
| eeee | marandi: no problem | 21:39 |
| BerenBarahir | Probably because I was using Xubuntu when I downloaded and saved that installation file | 21:40 |
| Ben64 | BerenBarahir: no | 21:40 |
| BerenBarahir | I used the installation command TJ- gave me | 21:40 |

| BerenBarahir | the install package is a deb package | 21:41 |
| TJ- | BerenBarahir: When you use 'dpkg' you're responsible for ensuring all dependencies are also installed, whereas apt-get does it for you. | 21:41 |
| Mrono | I have a thinkpad TS400 but the wireless chipset doesn't even have drivers in 14.04 | 21:41 |
| k1l | kurt2014: i think you discussions suit better into the #ubuntu-offtopic channel | 21:41 |
| BerenBarahir | What should I do next? ....INstall the LibPangol package? | 21:43 |
| Ben64 | BerenBarahir: yes, or use the google PPA | 21:43 |
| BerenBarahir | Or uninstall Google Chrome? | 21:43 |
| netlar | Is the recoll lense still available in Unity? | 21:44 |
| Bobbo_ | TJ- / eeee : Installed under legacy mode, seemed to of worked. so I'm just going with that. Thanks for the help anyways, I've learnt some stuff! | 21:45 |

| Bobbo_ | Yes. | 21:45 |
| Bobbo_ | Avoid Toshiba like the plague. | 21:45 |
| Ben64 | BerenBarahir: just use the google ppa, this will be much easier | 21:45 |
| BerenBarahir | Are those the two packages I need to get my Google Chrome working? | 21:46 |
| netlar | I tried to install it, but says that it is unable to locate the recoll-lens | 21:46 |
| TJ- | BerenBarahir: Why don't you install "chromium-browser", the open-source package that is in the archive? | 21:46 |
| Ben64 | BerenBarahir: good luck, you seem to be ignoring all advice | 21:46 |
| BerenBarahir | I don't know the commands for google PPA and I already installed the deb file | 21:46 |
| TJ- | BerenBarahir: "sudo dpkg -r google-chrome-stable" to remove it | 21:47 |

| squinty | boris: or look for Disks in Installed Software | 22:01 |

| netlar | k1l: I just remember in 13.04 you could add lenses to the dash | 22:17 |
| samthewildone | So I recently purchased a bluetooth usb dongle for my computer and, it works. The problem is every time I try to connect to it for use on my headset it glitches. | 22:18 |
| netlar | k1l: Now those lenses appear to be fixed and unchangable | 22:18 |
| netlar | k1l: Just those standard 7 lenses | 22:18 |
| samthewildone | Glitches by it takes about 2 minutes of tinkering with the connect / disconnect settings to get it to work. Is there a way around this because I'm going to find this very annoying in the future. | 22:18 |
| samthewildone | The headset will connect but, no sound will output unless I change sound settings from telephony to high fidelity. When I select HF it grays out so I have to reconnect the headset and attempt to get it working. | 22:19 |
| k1l | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=trusty§ion=all&arch=any&keywords=lens+unity&searchon=names them are in the repos | 22:19 |

| netlar | Well I tried Recoll, and it says it has a lense for that in a ppa and I installed it, but still not showing up in the dash | 22:21 |
| boris1 | can any one give me some pointers | 22:22 |

| BerenBarahir | Could you please tell me if the following 3 steps would properly install Google Chrome, and automatically include the following 2 packages I had problems with earlier, because I'm not using the google ppa: | 22:27 |
| BerenBarahir | Package libpango1.0-0 | 22:27 |
| BerenBarahir | Package libappindicator1 | 22:27 |
| BerenBarahir | http://pastebin.com/vDPAtDwn | 22:28 |
| BerenBarahir | those are the 3 steps | 22:28 |
| k1l | netlar: you need to start "recoll" first and let it set up its database | 22:28 |
| k1l | when that is finished there should be the lense after relogin | 22:28 |
| netlar | Yes, did that, but let me do that again | 22:28 |
| netlar | k1l: I did that before installing the lens, maybe I need to do after installing the lense | 22:29 |
| daftykins | BerenBarahir: you can find out for yourself by doing all but the final command, then run "apt-cache policy google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb" instead | 22:29 |
| BerenBarahir | thanks daftykins | 22:30 |
| k1l | BerenBarahir: 1st: just get the google chrome .deb package and install that. 2nd: why are you doing that on a live system? | 22:30 |
| BerenBarahir | because this PC has Windows XP installed | 22:30 |
| samthewildone | can anyone help me find the mac address of my bluetooth headset which is already paired ? | 22:31 |
| BerenBarahir | daftykins Should I prefix the last command you gave me with sudo? | 22:32 |

| BerenBarahir | But Kubuntu could not locate the package | 22:40 |
| BerenBarahir | It's in my Downloads folder | 22:40 |
| netlar | k1l: it is alright, not a deal breaker | 22:41 |
| daftykins | BerenBarahir: that's not how you run it, apt-cache comes from an added PPA as per the instructions you linked, not on a downloaded package | 22:42 |
| netlar | k1l: I saw articles on how to add lenses for 13.04, got excited, but none of those articals are for 14.04 | 22:42 |
| daftykins | 'cache' refers to the downloaded cache of having run "apt-get update" | 22:42 |
| k1l | BerenBarahir: you want to install that .deb package? | 22:42 |
| BerenBarahir | I did what you said, daftykins, but the last command did not work | 22:42 |
| k1l | BerenBarahir: yes or no? | 22:42 |
| BerenBarahir | yes | 22:43 |
| BerenBarahir | Everything worked except the last command | 22:43 |

| k1l | BerenBarahir: the HowTo is really really really all inclusiv. its just in the last command where you need to use your brain and set <package name> with the actual package name | 22:51 |
| BerenBarahir | these are the results of my last two commands....http://pastebin.com/mqJcrJhC | 22:53 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: you could also just use the software installer after adding the PPA open up your software installer (Synaptic or whatever ) and then search for Chrome. | 22:54 |

| BerenBarahir | A lot of people here talked about adding the google ppa for chrome, but no one here knows how to do so, apparently | 22:55 |
| eeee | Mike9863: you can set the resolution for each monitor , settings > display | 22:56 |
| BerenBarahir | the people here know a lot more about the deb package than the ppa. I don't even know what a ppa is | 22:56 |
| BerenBarahir | all the commands I was given or linked up to use the deb package | 22:56 |
| eeee | BerenBarahir: the first couple commands add the ppa | 22:57 |
| BerenBarahir | yeah, but they say the last command is wrong | 22:57 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: copy and paste the "wget...." and then the "sudo...." lines into a terminal. if no errors reported then either do the " sudo apt-get update" command in the terminal or open your software manager and refresh the sources list. after it has finished refreshing, search for chrome in the listings. once found install it via the software manager. | 22:57 |

| BerenBarahir | ok, so that means the above instructions from k1 all work, but instead of running the last command, I open up my software centre and look for Chrome? | 23:00 |
| === sins-_h is now known as sins- | ||
| eeee | or, apt-cache search chrome | 23:01 |
| BerenBarahir | using the software centre sounds easier, because I would not know what to do if I found the package using the apt-cache search chrome command | 23:03 |
| daftykins | honestly i don't understand why people pursue chrome as if it's like the second coming in browser form =| | 23:03 |
| eeee | BerenBarahir: the last command in your guide maybe ? | 23:04 |
| squinty | daftykins: neither do I and am miffed that firefox decided to pretty much adopt their layout. | 23:05 |
| k1l | BerenBarahir: you seem to much confused with the terminal and cant follow straight howtos using the terminal. i would suggest you to only use the software-center for now | 23:05 |
| eeee | squinty: daftykins same here | 23:06 |
| BerenBarahir | Ok, so daftykins was wrong about my 3 steps. I posted them here and he was apparently the only one who read them. He told me to change the last command, And I did. | 23:08 |
| daftykins | no i wasn't | 23:08 |
| daftykins | i said follow them, then run my command | 23:08 |
| daftykins | then you suddenly started saying you had a .deb downloaded instead | 23:08 |
| BerenBarahir | <daftykins> BerenBarahir: you can find out for yourself by doing all but the final command, then run "apt-cache policy google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb" instead | 23:09 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: well he meant you have to change <package name> to the actual package name which in this case is google-chrome-stable | 23:09 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: in a terminal type or copy/paste the following apt search google-chrome see if you get anything returned | 23:10 |
| daftykins | ah, forgive me i didn't recall putting in the .deb filename | 23:10 |
| daftykins | truth be told i shouldn't really be assisting here just yet, i'm not long out of hospital :( | 23:10 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: you should see google-chrome- either beta or stable or unstable | 23:11 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: if you do see output similar to that then type or copy/paste the following sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable | 23:12 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: if you don't see any of that output then your PPA hasn't been added correctly (if you had previously done the "sudo apt-get update" command listed on that web page | 23:13 |

| theadmin | Luyin: apt-cache search is helpful too, also apt-get autoremove | 23:16 |

| squinty | BerenBarahir: you can use the Software Center to install too. open it up and then check to make sure that the PPA has been added to the sources list. you can do that by clicking on the top panel and then Edit > Sources | 23:18 |
| BerenBarahir | I got a lot of errors and wrong packages installed now, so I think I need to reboot before I try anything else | 23:19 |
| skinux | Is there a known reason why firefox.com would say my browser is out-of-date, but Firefox doesn't think it is? | 23:19 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: first check in the Software Center for the ppa entry under "Other Software" if it is not there you need to add it | 23:20 |
| theadmin | skinux: Firefox on Ubuntu checks for updates via Ubuntu's repositories, I think | 23:20 |
| theadmin | skinux: Basically, check for updates via the Update Manager | 23:20 |
| squinty | skinux: probably a newer version available that hasn't come into the repo's yet | 23:21 |
| theadmin | skinux: If there aren't any, don't worry about it and just wait a couple of days till the Ubuntu devs test the new FF on Ubuntu | 23:21 |
| BerenBarahir | I"m using a live CD, so doing that will not be saved | 23:21 |
| skinux | Oh, that explains it. It seems Ubuntu repositories are always a version or two behind official software releases. | 23:21 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: DVD or usb. if possible (if you can't do a full install) set up persistence on a usb stick to save settings and download files | 23:22 |
| blkpower | theadmin: that's the beauty of Linux. If its downloaded through repository. An update updates all programs. Not just ubuntu operating system like windows does. | 23:22 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: you could also do a full install on a usb stick (with sufficient capacity) | 23:23 |
| theadmin | blkpower: Many things could be said to be the beauty of Linux ;) | 23:23 |

| netameta | i have ubuntu 13.10 "saucy" how can i upgrade it// do i need to upgrade it ? | 23:25 |
| daftykins | !eol | netameta follow the last link here | 23:25 |
| ubottu | netameta follow the last link here: 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 | 23:25 |
| theadmin | netameta: Yes, you do, it's EOL by now! You should hurry and update soon | 23:25 |
| eeee | netameta: sudo do-release-upgrade, and yes | 23:25 |
| daftykins | oh yeah direct would be fine | 23:25 |
| daftykins | dooooh, i really need to stop coming in here for a while XD | 23:25 |
| proshotz | netameta: if its not broken don't fix it. | 23:25 |
| theadmin | netameta: Also, I recommend staying on 14.04 because it's an LTS release (so you will have to upgrade less often) | 23:26 |
| theadmin | proshotz: 13.10 is EOL. | 23:26 |
| theadmin | proshotz: Could very well be "broken" | 23:26 |
| BerenBarahir | Wow, I got a 4 GB USB stick with Kubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso on it, would that work, squinty? | 23:26 |
| squinty | is it my old brain that can't find a refresh button in the Software Center or is it just missing? | 23:26 |
| netameta | daftykins thanks again, theadmin how can i update to 14.04 ? | 23:27 |
| theadmin | netameta: Run the update manager and follow it's instructions, there should be a huge "Upgrade" button on the top | 23:27 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: you could use that along with unetbootin to use the iso plus a persistence area | 23:27 |
| === iShaggy is now known as iShaggy-Away | ||
| netameta | theadmin i dont have it on my machine i am ssh connected | 23:27 |
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: always wanted wanted it to work. And it did sorta. But had problems upgrading while on USB. | 23:28 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: 4 gig is too small to do a full install. 16 gig is what i use | 23:28 |
| eeee | squinty: i don't think there's a refresh button, but im intrigued by the file > sync between computers | 23:28 |
| eeee | seems cool pretty cool | 23:28 |
| squinty | eeee: :-) | 23:29 |
| netameta | theadmin, is it even possible throw terminal ? | 23:29 |
| eeee | *seems pretty cool | 23:29 |
| theadmin | netameta: Ah right, then "sudo do-release-upgrade" | 23:29 |
| netameta | i see | 23:29 |
| netameta | well i will read the link first and see | 23:29 |
| netameta | thanks, theadmin, eeee and proshotz | 23:29 |
| wbgvewgbw | how to copy an entire folder to a flash drive from the terminal? | 23:29 |
| theadmin | wbgvewgbw: cp -r your_folder /media/your_flash_drive/ | 23:30 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: cp -r /path/to/folder /path/to/flashdrive | 23:30 |
| BerenBarahir | But my live CD probably only uses about 1GB, so why do I need more than 4 GB to run Kubuntu live off a USB stick? | 23:31 |
| wbgvewgbw | Yes, but as I discover the "path"? | 23:31 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: pendrivelinux.com and http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ for info on usb stick setups. unetbootin can be installed via Software Manager or grab a copy off the website for installing with Windows | 23:32 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: you should know the first path, the second is where ever the flash drive is mounted, if you used the button in nautilus it would be under /media/<your username> | 23:32 |
| theadmin | wbgvewgbw: Browse /media | 23:32 |
| jcorgan | what is used to create initrd (note: not initramfs) on the ubuntu installer/live dvd? 12.04 had cryptsetup inside it, now 14.04 does not, and i'd like to recreate it with cryptsetup and libraries installed on it. | 23:32 |
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: you can run it. But my problem happened with upgrading a USB based Ubuntu. | 23:32 |
| spearhead | BerenBarahir, you don't really need more than 4 gb to do the install, it will pretty much fill up the thumb drive though... so not very useful | 23:32 |
| jcorgan | that is, what program is used to create the /casper/initrd.lz contents on the installer ISO? | 23:33 |
| === RedDeath is now known as zz_RedDeath | ||
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: I am not sure the difference is. But a live CD put on a 1gb USB will work. But you want a full install onto a USB. | 23:34 |
| squinty | BerenBarahir: running a full install from a usb stick does have performance hits (ie slower access).. personally I would not be running Kubuntu from a usb stick. | 23:34 |
| proshotz | Don't you need two USB sticks to install Ubuntu from the live USB to the target install usb | 23:36 |
| squinty | proshotz: that is one way to do it. | 23:37 |
| squinty | anyways... have to run. back later | 23:38 |
| proshotz | squinty: what's the other way | 23:38 |
| jcorgan | does anyone know how the contents of the /casper/initrd.lz are determined when the installer live DVD is created? 14.04 is missing cryptsetup and i'd like to add that back. | 23:39 |
| eeee | proshotz: i guess you could dd an installation, another way would be to use virtualbox, and create a raw disk image file of the usb, load the iso in the vm, and install to the usb | 23:40 |
| SchrodingersScat | proshotz: agreed with eeee, virtualbox with usb passthrough is good if you don't want to reboot into another install stick | 23:40 |
| wbgvewgbw | My system broke, I can only access my files via the shell and must pass only one folder (very important to me) and then format. Can someone help me? | 23:41 |
| proshotz | eeee: so any other way basically creates a live USB with persistent storage. | 23:41 |
| eeee | proshotz: no, it creates a standalone installation | 23:41 |
| eeee | as you'd install on a hdd | 23:41 |
| eeee | grub as a bootloader and everything | 23:42 |
| rufianw | wbgvewgbw: you can use scp -r remote-machine:/home/wbgv/very/important important | 23:42 |
| wbgvewgbw | I have a USB stick, but I have no idea how to copy the files over the shell. | 23:42 |
| proshotz | eeee: I am talking about them windows apps that make a bootable USB. | 23:42 |
| rufianw | Ah. | 23:42 |
| wbgvewgbw | rufianw: Yes | 23:42 |
| rufianw | I understood you had a remote shell. | 23:42 |
| rufianw | Then disregard what I said. | 23:42 |
| rufianw | mount the stick, copy and umount then. | 23:43 |
| proshotz | eeee: like pendrive for example. | 23:43 |
| wbgvewgbw | rufianw: How? That's the question. | 23:43 |
| rufianw | wbgvewgbw: it should not be difficult if you search in Google, but anyway... | 23:44 |
| SchrodingersScat | also don't copy the files into something non-persistant.. | 23:44 |
| rufianw | You connect it, search the device name (e.g. sudo fdisk -l and search for a device with the same capacity, it should be something like /dev/sdb1) and then mount it to a folder | 23:44 |
| rufianw | e.g. mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 23:44 |
| rufianw | Then you can copy files with cp -r source destination | 23:45 |
| rufianw | (where source and destination are the origin and destination folders) | 23:45 |
| rufianw | Finally you unmount with umount /dev/sdb1 (that's not a typo) and get your pen. | 23:45 |
| wbgvewgbw | rufianw: Yes /dev/sdb1 * | 23:46 |
| jcorgan | i'd like to customize the contents of /casper/initrd.lz on the installer DVD to include cryptsetup. it used to be there in 12.04 but is now missing in 14.04. | 23:46 |
| rufianw | You can explore directories using cd directory to enter in a directory and ls to list files in the current directory | 23:46 |
| rufianw | cd .. goes to the parent directory | 23:46 |
| jcorgan | is there a better place to ask my question than #ubuntu? | 23:47 |
| rufianw | jcorgan: uh? Did they remove cryptsetup? Latest Ubuntu version support encryption in the default installers. | 23:48 |
| proshotz | jcorgan: maybe a spinoff has it. | 23:48 |
| jcorgan | i'm not talking about the cryptsetup that can be installed as part of the regular destination filesystem | 23:48 |
| wbgvewgbw | rufianw: For example, the command to copy, it would be: cp / home / important / media / pen? | 23:49 |
| jcorgan | the initrd.lz that gets booted into pre-installer used to have cryptsetup on it, now it doesn't | 23:49 |
| jcorgan | proshotz: interesting. a spinoff is some derivative distribution, or am i misunderstanding | 23:49 |
| rufianw | wbgvewgbw: almost, spaces are important. Also, you need to use -r (recursive to copy directories) | 23:49 |
| rufianw | cp -r /home/important /media/pen/ | 23:49 |
| wbgvewgbw | rufianw: For example, the command to copy, it would be: cp /home/important/media/ pen? | 23:50 |
| rufianw | see above ^ | 23:50 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: if you mounted the flash drive to /mnt, you have to cp to /mnt. | 23:50 |
| rufianw | yes | 23:50 |
| wbgvewgbw | cp -r /home/important/media/pen? | 23:50 |
| proshotz | jcorgan: I guess. Like Mint. | 23:50 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: cp -r /home/important/media /mnt | 23:50 |
| wbgvewgbw | ok | 23:50 |
| eeee | ^^ run that if you used mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt , earlier | 23:51 |
| rufianw | jcorgan: so you can't read dm-crypt filesystems in Ubuntu live media? | 23:51 |
| jcorgan | ok, worth checking out, thanks. i'd still like to know how canonical creates their iso contents, though | 23:51 |
| jcorgan | rufianw: once you boot into the live media root filesystem, yes, you can read dm-crypt stuff | 23:51 |
| spearhead | wbgvewgbw, you need to know the full path to the directory you are wanting to copy and also the folder you mounted your flash drive to. | 23:52 |
| jcorgan | but i'm talking before that | 23:52 |
| rufianw | jcorgan: oh, so it is a module. | 23:52 |
| rufianw | but you need it in the initramfs. | 23:52 |
| jcorgan | it's a binary and a couple of .so's in the *initrd* | 23:52 |
| jcorgan | which is not what is created by initramfs as far as i can tell | 23:52 |
| netameta | how logn does an update usually date ? | 23:53 |
| rainbowwarrior | hello , can anyone recommend any decent laptop to tv streaming device for Ubuntu please ? | 23:53 |
| netameta | 13.10 - 14.04 | 23:53 |
| theadmin | netameta: Depends on your network speed | 23:53 |
| jcorgan | if you look at the kernel command lines on the DVD they all have initrd=/casper/initrd.lz | 23:53 |
| theadmin | netameta: If everything's downloaded, then about an hour | 23:53 |
| netameta | well its done downloading | 23:53 |
| netameta | bah an hor.. | 23:53 |
| theadmin | Well... if you have an SSD, may go a lot faster | 23:53 |
| proshotz | jcorgan: there are many Ubuntu spinoffs. Probably 10 or more. | 23:53 |
| netameta | started this in wrong time | 23:53 |
| theadmin | netameta: You can keep using your machine while it's updating | 23:54 |
| wbgvewgbw | I tried -r cp /home/important /mnt/pen and is taking, is he copying? | 23:54 |
| rufianw | theadmin: I'm not sure that's a very good idea. | 23:54 |
| netameta | i need to go off, for a little bit, and i am afraid the session will time out if there will be any prompt | 23:54 |
| rufianw | wbgvewgbw: yes. | 23:54 |
| theadmin | netameta: Should have ran it under screen. | 23:54 |
| jcorgan | proshotz: hoping to avoid downloading and inspecting the live dvd isos for all those spinoffs, but it is a good idea that i may have to resort to, thanks | 23:55 |
| netameta | whats that? | 23:55 |
| theadmin | netameta: A tool that allows you to retain terminal sessions even if you disconnect from SSH | 23:55 |
| spearhead | wbgvewgbw, first of the -r needs to be after the cp and second do you know where the directory is that you want to copy? | 23:55 |
| theadmin | netameta: Among other things | 23:55 |
| rufianw | That only applies to remote sessions. | 23:55 |
| theadmin | rufianw: He is on a remote session | 23:55 |
| rufianw | Oh, boy. | 23:55 |
| netameta | theadmin, ah wow | 23:55 |
| netameta | thats good | 23:55 |
| rufianw | Never do that again. | 23:55 |
| theadmin | Actually, yeah, a remote update might be a bad idea in case something decides to börk up | 23:56 |
| theadmin | Unlikely, but still | 23:56 |
| rufianw | Which usually does in home Internet connections. | 23:56 |
| BerenBarahir | Could you please tell me if the following 4 steps would properly install Google Chrome onto Kubuntu 14.04? | 23:57 |
| BerenBarahir | http://pastebin.com/DJc8GvN5 | 23:57 |
| theadmin | rufianw: Uh, the update doesn't really rely on an Internet connection. Once everything's downloaded you can unplug it | 23:57 |
| rufianw | theadmin: but the ssh connection does. | 23:57 |
| theadmin | rufianw: That is true. | 23:57 |
| wbgvewgbw | Oh, i'm sorry. Actually I tried cp -r /home/important /mnt/pen | 23:57 |
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: just download google chrome and run it. | 23:57 |
| rufianw | And if it dies, the update may die too. | 23:58 |
| spearhead | wbgvewgbw, ok, where is the directory you are trying to copy? | 23:58 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: that will copy the files to a folder called pen on the flash drive | 23:58 |
| wbgvewgbw | how can I know if it's copying? | 23:58 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: after it's finished type cd /mnt/pen | 23:58 |
| theadmin | wbgvewgbw: Is it hanging or is it back to the prompt? | 23:58 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: if no error returns, then it probably went through | 23:58 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: type cd /mnt/pen , then ls -la to see all files | 23:59 |
| jcorgan | ooh, i may have gotten lucky | 23:59 |
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: don't make it more complicated. Just download it from google and run it. | 23:59 |
| mattxtn | How would a view a log of cron jobs already run? | 23:59 |
| eeee | wbgvewgbw: if you want to see all the files type find /mnt/pen in the terminal, it will list them all | 23:59 |
| proshotz | BerenBarahir: it will install | 23:59 |
| jcorgan | i didn't think to look at the standard /boot/initrd.img* that gets installed on a normal system | 23:59 |
