| sssilver_ | Hey guys, is there a repository browsable on the web that would have all files of a default ubuntu install? | 00:20 |
| daftykins | why don't you tell us what you're trying to achieve? | 00:20 |
| Hilikus | daftykins: is that in the ubuntu repos? | 00:20 |
| daftykins | rather than ask the weird questions ;) | 00:20 |
| sssilver_ | like I’ve accidentally overwritten /usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop | 00:20 |
| sssilver_ | and I don’t wanna bother people by asking what was in it | 00:20 |
| daftykins | Hilikus: possibly, i don't use it | 00:20 |

| daftykins | Hilikus: yep ^ | 00:21 |
| sssilver_ | so is there a standard way to recover distro files? | 00:21 |
| daftykins | not that i know of. | 00:21 |
| sssilver_ | but why? | 00:21 |
| daftykins | why what | 00:22 |
| sssilver_ | why is there no way to solve that seemingly common issue | 00:22 |
| sssilver_ | there has to be a way | 00:22 |
| daftykins | there's nothing common about deleting a file without backing it up | 00:22 |
| daftykins | you sir, made a grave error | 00:22 |
| sssilver_ | I didn’t delete it, I wrote stuff into it starting at 0 byte offset | 00:22 |
| sssilver_ | which effectively overwrote the contents | 00:23 |
| trism | sssilver_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus; will bring the file back | 00:23 |
| daftykins | irrelevant, end result is the same | 00:23 |
| Hilikus | daftykins: thank you | 00:23 |
| sssilver_ | trism: so there’s no repository of default ubuntu installation filesystem? | 00:24 |
| daftykins | someones beginning to sound like a broken record | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | sssilver_, reinstall nautilus could solve that i guess | 00:27 |
| Alberto89 | Ç¡ÃôÔô Ç¡ÃôÔô | 00:27 |
| sssilver_ | OerHeks: the problem is that reinstalling is more of a hack than a solution | 00:27 |
| sssilver_ | and an ugly one | 00:27 |
| sssilver_ | because what if other files were modified with purpose | 00:28 |
| sssilver_ | and I only need to restore this one file | 00:28 |
| sssilver_ | any source control system allows that, why doesn’t apt-get? | 00:28 |
| OerHeks | sssilver_, then open the .deb package, grab that file and put it back... | 00:28 |
| OerHeks | sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus | 00:28 |
| sssilver_ | OerHeks: that should have been something like sudo apt-get —restore /usr/bla/bla/myfile | 00:29 |
| sssilver_ | let apt-get identify which package it belongs to and do the job | 00:29 |
| daftykins | sssilver_: you are welcome to submit a patch to add that functionality. | 00:29 |
| daftykins | sssilver_: this is not the place for your little ideas to be shared however | 00:30 |
| sssilver_ | daftykins: I’m busy writing a tetris with Rust, http://github.com/sssilver/tetrust | 00:30 |
| daftykins | that has no relevance to this channel. | 00:30 |
| eeee | tetris, *puke* | 00:31 |
| sssilver_ | daftykins: I guess this isn’t the place to talk about apt-get, you’re right. Afterall #debian people write it, and Ubuntu is just a bunch of repos and some marketing | 00:31 |
| daftykins | nope #ubuntu is a bunch of volunteers getting their time wasted by some idiot who thinks he can do better. | 00:32 |
| sssilver_ | so is #debian. But they also actually write shit, like apt-get | 00:32 |
| * eeee takes away tetris from sssilver_ and points to the corner | 00:32 | |
| daftykins | that language isn't appropriate here. | 00:32 |
| sssilver_ | what language, English? | 00:32 |
| SchrodingersScat | since reinstalling nautilus should recreate anything, isn't that the answer to if there's a repo out there for it | 00:33 |
| rww | neither of you are appropriate here. take the arguing elsewhere. | 00:33 |
| sssilver_ | I’m trying to be appropriate rww but daftykins got all defensive and started attacking me :'( | 00:33 |
| sssilver_ | I had no choice | 00:33 |
| rww | sssilver_: uh huh. back to support, thanks | 00:34 |
| sssilver_ | SchrodingersScat: the problem with that is that you end up restoring all files of that package, not just the one you want | 00:34 |

| === caio is now known as Guest56949 | ||
| melio | jon__, Peppermint versions typically release in May or June of each year due to them being based on the April release of Ubuntu. As such, Peppermint Five will follow this particular trend. | 01:14 |
| melio | Because Peppermint Five will be based on the LTS package base, it will be strongly recommended that fresh installations be performed as opposed to any attempts to upgrade. We will try and publish some form of guide to help ease the pain as much as possible. For the most part it simply involves backing up data to an external source, getting a list of installed software, and saving some configuration files. | 01:14 |

| thoonai | Bashing-om: the problem is: its not working | 02:03 |
| Helsinkiii | Bashing-om, lies. I have the .sh file, and it installed a few things | 02:03 |
| Helsinkiii | Bashing-om, can i get the package names from the .sh | 02:03 |
| SolarisBoy | thoonai: check within the iso and ensure that the efi file referenced is present | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | thoonai: What we are seeing is the boot code from the installer, not the boot code from the installed system. | 02:03 |
| SolarisBoy | that error generally comes from the kernel not being where grub says it is @ thoonai | 02:04 |
| thoonai | just downloaded a new iso, old seemed corrupt :/ | 02:04 |
| OerHeks | KLVTZ, i can't find zoom support either | 02:04 |
| eeee | thoonai: did you checksum the old iso? | 02:05 |
| Bashing-om | Helsinkiii: IF installed manually, the package manager has verry limited application to the installed package, Is there no (UN-)install derections with the .sh package ? | 02:05 |
| thoonai | eeee: yes and this one differed from the md5sums from the site Bashing-om linked | 02:06 |
| Helsinkiii | literally, the guys who wrote it only supply a .sh. absolutely nothing else | 02:06 |
| KLVTZ | OerHeks: I'll submit a question on the stackexchange ubuntu network. | 02:06 |
| thoonai | eeee: though I downloaded it 5hours ago ... | 02:06 |
| eeee | thoonai: you can repair the old iso, without having to download it again | 02:06 |
| thoonai | eeee: no need, internet is fast enough here | 02:07 |
| thoonai | atm I'm copying the iso to the pen drive | 02:07 |
| Helsinkiii | Bashing-om, freak out in 3,2... | 02:08 |
| Helsinkiii | I'm an idiot, I should have run this in an emulator | 02:08 |
| Helsinkiii | fuck me | 02:08 |
| eeee | Helsinkiii: what did you install? | 02:09 |
| K4wkz | opa | 02:09 |
| Helsinkiii | eeee some random materials engineering application from a university | 02:09 |
| eeee | cool | 02:09 |
| eeee | ( i only say that cuz im a mech eng ) | 02:09 |
| eeee | :D | 02:09 |
| Helsinkiii | eeee seg fault when i try to run updates, and synaptic crashes | 02:10 |
| eeee | so what did it do to your pc? | 02:10 |
| Helsinkiii | ^ | 02:10 |
| thoonai | Helsinkiii: I know it's too late, but take a look at VirtualBox if your box supports virtualization | 02:10 |
| Helsinkiii | Helsinkiii, I HAVE IT INSTALLED. that's why i'm a moron | 02:11 |
| eeee | Helsinkiii: paste the .sh in paste.ubuntu.com | 02:11 |
| Helsinkiii | what do i do now? | 02:11 |
| SolarisBoy | Helsinkiii: are you able to post the installer file to show what the contents are? | 02:11 |
| SolarisBoy | oops - ignore that =) | 02:11 |
| Helsinkiii | SolarisBoy, it's paid, I'm not even sure i'm allowed | 02:12 |
| Helsinkiii | eeee, might not be permitted to? | 02:12 |
| eeee | i'm sure the app is more than an install script.. | 02:12 |
| eeee | + how much did it run you btw | 02:12 |
| Helsinkiii | eeee, $75 | 02:12 |
| eeee | what's it find? | 02:13 |
| thoonai | ok, i feel stupid, I looked into the correct iso and vmlinuz.efi is in /casper/ | 02:13 |
| Helsinkiii | stuff man | 02:13 |

| eeee | well it couldn't have caused too much damage then | 02:16 |
| SolarisBoy | Helsinkiii: it should be ok to view the file and see the actions it performed, you aren't redistributing it or modifying the code etc. | 02:16 |
| K4wkz | oh sorry boss | 02:16 |

| oldskoool | cfhowlett: I did? Was that when I modified the /etc/apt/sources.list file? | 03:08 |
| cfhowlett | oldskoool, exactly. now your system knows to look in the oldreleases repo | 03:09 |
| oldskoool | cfhowlett: ah, cool. Thank you. It's still downloading (I have a really slow connection). Fingers crossed! | 03:09 |
| cfhowlett | oldskoool, you can always torrent 14.04 and just clean install directly. with your method, you must follow 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 14.04 | 03:11 |
| Bashing-om | thoonai: If you mount the .iso file, can you inspect the files ? .. OK, then we also know the .iso file is good ( you did md5sum the .iso file, yes ? ) .. next is to edit a grub control file that is parsed to make up grub.cfg; "gksu gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom" . | 03:11 |
| oldskoool | ugh....maybe I will do that. If I get the 14.04 iso on a USB drive, can I install it and save all my settings and programs and what not? | 03:12 |
| thoonai | Bashing-om: oh, I missed this step | 03:12 |
| thoonai | Bashing-om: i'tt try thanks :) | 03:12 |
| eeee | oldskoool: you can get a list of your installed packages, and install them after the fresh install | 03:12 |
| Bashing-om | thoonai: lol. happens to the best of us. slow down and think your way through this. | 03:13 |
| cfhowlett | oldskoool, assuming you have your /home in its own partition and you don't format /home during resinstall, you settings don't change. you will need to list and install your extra programs | 03:13 |

| cfhowlett | oldskoool, there is a script for same ... wait 1 | 03:16 |

| thoonai | Bashing-om: Im not booting perpermint. | 03:20 |

| Basketball | how can i get something like manycams to spoof my webcam | 03:23 |
| eeee | oldskoool: cfhowlett dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1 | sort -u > allpackages | 03:23 |
| Bashing-om | thoonai: Sorry, I was the one confused here. I have never built a multi-boot USB, others will have to advise . | 03:23 |
| eeee | oldskoool: run that first | 03:23 |
| thoonai | Bashing-om: thank you for your time :) | 03:24 |
| thoonai | cfhowlett: Exectly this I'm doing right now manually | 03:24 |
| Bashing-om | thoonai: :), willing to try and help, standing by. | 03:24 |
| thoonai | cfhowlett: but I now some spcae on the drive for an ext4 partition | 03:25 |
| eeee | cfhowlett: you'd download the manifest, sort it, and then use comm -23 to get the list of installed packages (without any dependencies) just the programs that dont come originally on ubuntu | 03:26 |
| cfhowlett | eeee, not seeing how this addresses the dependencies deficiency you cited ... | 03:26 |
| eeee | ^^ | 03:26 |
| xangua | thoonai: just use multibootusb.org or multisystem | 03:26 |
| eeee | wget http://releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.manifest | 03:26 |
| cfhowlett | eeee, ah,..nvrmnd | 03:26 |
| eeee | run it through cut -f1 | sort -u as well, | 03:26 |
| cfhowlett | eeee, can this be done *without* installing aptitude? | 03:27 |
| eeee | then comm -23 allpackages ubuntumanifest | 03:27 |
| eeee | cfhowlett: it has nothing to do with aptitude | 03:27 |
| eeee | just getting the list of ubuntu packages on a fresh install (from the manifest) and comparing them with the installed ones | 03:27 |
| thoonai | xangua: thanks | 03:28 |
| thoonai | is there no decent way to do this manually? | 03:28 |
| cfhowlett | eeee, hmm. so how would one (eeee!) rewrite the short script I found at http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/11/how-to-backuprestore-your-installed.htm | 03:28 |
| thoonai | I don't trust these things much | 03:28 |
| eeee | cfhowlett: page not found | 03:31 |

| FailFarm | ashadiqi:hello | 03:36 |
| ashadiqi | I'm using PCmanFM now as default file and desktop manager, Can i add the terminal inside PCmanFM like the plugin in nemo (nemo-terminal)? | 03:37 |
| somsip | ashadiqi: press F4 | 03:38 |
| ashadiqi | somsip: it opens separate terminal, I want to see it combined with the file manager window like pressing F4 in nemo-terminal | 03:40 |
| DoverMo | ashadiqi: i've never heard of that for pcmanfm | 03:40 |
| somsip | ashadiqi: I have no knowledge of nemo-terminal so I don't know what you mean. I'm missing the subtle distinction. You get the directory open in a terminal. Job done surely... | 03:41 |
| ashadiqi | DoverMo: I've googled also, no result | 03:42 |
| ashadiqi | somsip: I mean something like this http://alv.me/wp-content/img/2014/04/nemo-terminal.png | 03:42 |
| somsip | ashadiqi: I get it. I don't know of PCManFM doing that. | 03:44 |
| Basketball | how can i get something like manycams to spoof my webcam | 03:44 |
| eeee | cfhowlett: this is pretty cool comm -23 <(apt-mark showmanual | sort -u) <(gzip -dc /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz | sed -n 's/^Package: //p' | sort -u) | 03:46 |
| cfhowlett | eeee, thanks. | 03:47 |

| cfhowlett | jon__, no! | 04:00 |
| xangua | !eol | jon__ a fresh install would be faster | 04:00 |
| ubottu | jon__ a fresh install would be faster: 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 | 04:00 |
| Hankmccoy | yes | 04:00 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, as you are EOL eolupgrade | 04:00 |
| eeee | Hankmccoy: man mkntfs | 04:00 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, but a fresh install of 14.04.1 would indeed be faster | 04:01 |
| Hankmccoy | want ti to work with windows again I made a partition so don't need the portable Ubuntu anymore | 04:01 |
| Hankmccoy | eeee ? what? | 04:01 |
| eeee | Hankmccoy: it's something like sudo mkntfs -Q -L <label> /dev/sdxY | 04:01 |
| Hankmccoy | i'll try it | 04:01 |
| FailFarm | hankmccoy: have you tried windows disk manager yet to delete the ubuntu partition | 04:02 |

| sivik | anyone know how to get gstvideo installed in ubuntu? | 04:17 |
| cfhowlett | !info gstvideo | 04:17 |
| ubottu | Package gstvideo does not exist in trusty | 04:17 |
| jon__ | i do go online | 04:17 |
| sivik | cfhowlett, yes, I already searched for it | 04:18 |
| jon__ | so i need a upgrade | 04:18 |
| sivik | its apparently in gstreamer somewhere but I cannot find it | 04:18 |
| jon__ | i just install it | 04:18 |
| sivik | - 'gstvideo-1.0' ........... MISSING, TRYING ALTERNATIVE INCLUDE | 04:18 |
| jon__ | but i have a ubuntu 14 04 on a usb | 04:19 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, ... you are not making this easy by giving partial information ... | 04:19 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, boot the usb. install ubuntu | 04:19 |
| jon__ | i did install the old ubuntu on dvd | 04:20 |
| xangua | jon__: you'll spend a whole day if you follow the upgrade instructions or just a few hours if you decide for a fresh install, if you already have ubuntu 14.04 just half an hour as minimum for install | 04:20 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, we don't CARE how you installed OLD ubuntu. if your system supports USB boot, boot the USB and install. | 04:20 |
| jon__ | i dont know how to install the new one from my usb | 04:21 |
| ashadiqi | jon__: make your usb bootable first, and then reboot, install ubuntu from your USB | 04:21 |
| jon__ | how | 04:21 |
| cfhowlett | sivik, unfamiliar with gstvideo, but I did find http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-libs/html/gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideo.html | 04:21 |
| ashadiqi | jon__; how? google it. i still think that you don't need upgrade | 04:22 |
| sivik | cfhowlett, now the question is, how to install it | 04:22 |
| cfhowlett | jon__, reboot. your computer will message "to change boot/setup options, press *THIS KEY* press that key, change boot priority to #1 choice is USB. save the option and continue booting | 04:22 |
| cfhowlett | sivik, gstvideo is part of gstreamer so if you have gstreamer installed ... | 04:23 |
| sivik | I do have gstreamer installed along with gstreamer-dev | 04:23 |
| ashadiqi | jon__: how did you install ubuntu 12.10? | 04:23 |
| sivik | cfhowlett, looks to be part of GStreamer Base Plugins | 04:23 |
| sivik | but I'm not finding that in the repos | 04:23 |
| cfhowlett | sivik, ah, wai, it's a plugin. | 04:23 |
| sivik | but whats weird, I have the plugins-base installed | 04:24 |
| sivik | Thats why I'm confused | 04:24 |
| cfhowlett | sivik, it's not a "base" plugin I suspect. see this though: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1658232 | 04:25 |
| cfhowlett | sivik, note the old age and change your package search specifics accordingly | 04:25 |
| sivik | yea | 04:25 |

| ubottu | ceninant: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 04:46 |
| Ceninant | That's odd | 04:46 |
| OerHeks | EFi is supported, not for 32 bit | 04:46 |
| Ceninant | because I have a BIOS | 04:46 |
| OerHeks | Ceninant, so what is your issue then? | 04:47 |
| ubuntuuser | Hi there. Is there a way to replace the Konqueror file manager for something like Thunar in Kubuntu? | 04:47 |
| out_of_color | where to get safe ubuntu packages? | 04:48 |
| Ceninant | I used unetbootin to create a boot disk. | 04:48 |
| cfhowlett | out_of_color, from ubuntu repos | 04:48 |
| OerHeks | ubuntuuser, sure, you might want to join #kubuntu too | 04:48 |
| cfhowlett | !repos | out_of_color | 04:48 |

| lotuspsychje | where can i disable cups to boot? | 04:48 |
| xangua | ubuntuuser: you can use any file manager you want and KDE uses dolphin by default, no longer konqueror but you can also use it if you want | 04:48 |
| sivik | turn off the cups service from starting on boot | 04:48 |
| lotuspsychje | sivik: ive tryed all startup items, admin jobs,bum cups show nowhere | 04:49 |
| ubuntuuser | xangua how do i make Thunar my default? (I'm using Project Neon) | 04:49 |
| out_of_color | where to get safe ubuntu packages besides from repos? | 04:49 |
| Ceninant | it reads it as (uefi sandisk cruzer) but when i set it as the only boot option (disabling hard drive boot) i get kicked back to bios without ever seeing anything but the default... | 04:49 |
| sivik | lotuspsychje, what version of ubuntu? | 04:49 |
| lotuspsychje | sivik: trusty | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | out_of_color, nope. the packages in the repo are safe. if not, you take your chances. | 04:49 |
| sivik | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1701098 check it | 04:50 |
| cfhowlett | out_of_color, what are you looking for that is NOT in the repos | 04:50 |
| Ceninant | There's an option in the bios "path for boot option" asking for the syntax "fsx\path\filename.efi" | 04:50 |

Now my machine is terrible slow on boot (after clocksource tsc) and complains about some mounts not being ready | 08:25 |
| andreasg | does someone know a reason/solution for this problem? | 08:26 |

| geirha | andreasg: oh, and boot is still slow? don't know what that could be, then | 08:38 |

| Slart | Hi, I've installed a new hard drive into my 14.04-system and I figured I would give lvm a try. Everything seems to work just fine with one small exception.. my logical volumes aren't mounted at boot.. after googling a while I've found lots of strategies to fix this but some seem old and some come from other distros.. How do I do this on ubuntu? automounting of lvm-volumes at boot | 08:50 |
| Slart | frib: this thread ( https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164553 ) seems to suggest it is saved in a pdf if you do a "Save As"... and that thread is from 2013 so it shouldn't be a version-problem | 08:52 |
| frib | Slart, ok, i wasn't sure because when I first started using the annotations okular gave me a popup saying the annotations would be saved in the home directory and not in the file. but there is no other option other than Save As .. so in what case would it be referring to that it would save the annotations only in the home folder and how can I be sure that's not what I'm doing?? (complicated) | 08:55 |
| Slart | frib: I have never used okular myself so I don't really know.. but it mentions that it doesn't "change documents it opens" so if you make annotations it it makes sense to not alter the original pdf. The annotations don't stay if you save the document as a new pdf? | 08:57 |
| Slart | frib: I just tried it myself and if I save the pdf to a new name the annotations are saved.. I tried opening the new pdf with another pdf-viewer and the annotations are there | 09:00 |

| nick07 | I tried it, and I seems that adding the mode 1024x768, is also giving the same error | 09:35 |
| Slart | nick07: what's the output of just "xrandr" ? | 09:36 |
| Caramoan | MonkeyDust, vlc | 09:36 |
| nick07 | here are the results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8341510/ | 09:36 |
| Slart | nick07: some threads I found suggested not to use quotes on the addmode line but use quotes on the newmmode line.. not sure if it's reliable but it might be worth a try | 09:37 |
| Caramoan | MonkeyDust,i mean my ubuntu its kinda screensaver mode but its blank, how to disabled that.. | 09:38 |
| nick07 | I see now, that the modes I input, are listed under DVI-D-0, any idea why it would do that? Is that the issue? | 09:38 |
| MonkeyDust | Caramoan i don't understand that last question, please rephrase | 09:38 |

| Zenn | yeah I want to change it | 12:53 |
| MonkeyDust | sg site seems to be down, yes | 12:53 |
| zigsphere | There are two files wile the same repository - duplicates | 12:53 |
| Zenn | The program 'vim' can be found in the following packages: | 12:53 |

| zigsphere | there is more than just sources.list | 12:54 |
| Zenn | how terrible of the site to be down | 12:54 |
| zigsphere | there is also sources.list.d | 12:54 |
| rom1504 | just open /etc/apt/sources.list somehow and change sg to something else | 12:54 |
| zigsphere | Zenn, I sent you a msg | 12:54 |
| sakamop | Zenn: You can change the repo from the software updater in the gui, if you can't manage it from terminal | 12:54 |
| rom1504 | zigsphere: sources.list contains the principal repos | 12:55 |
| Zenn | :S | 12:55 |
| Zenn | I already open gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:55 |
| Zenn | now what ? | 12:55 |
| rom1504 | change sg to something else | 12:55 |
| MonkeyDust | or put a # before the sg line | 12:55 |
| rom1504 | for example en | 12:55 |
| zigsphere | or use another country. | 12:56 |
| zigsphere | just would be slower | 12:56 |

| rom1504 | there's plenty sg, change them all to en | 12:56 |

| Jesse__ | Hey im wondering if anyone could help me with a question. I installed Ruby 2.1.2 through rbenv, when I type Ruby -v this is also the version that is displayed. However A gem i installed through ruby(compass) produces this error when i launch it:"bash: /usr/local/bin/compass: /usr/bin/ruby1.9.1: bad interpreter: No such file or directory" as you can see it's trying to make use of ruby 1.9.1 which must have been on my system earlier or something. | 14:00 |
| Jesse__ | How do I get compass to use my new version of Ruby, is this in the PATH variable? | 14:00 |
| Adrian1908 | I have a brief question. When compiling programs on Windows, I used an alias "run" which ran make and then the *.exe file in the current directory. What would I use on linux/bash? | 14:08 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest35239 | ||
| Adrian1908 | I tried the "find" command, but I can't figure out how to make it run the executable it find in the local directory. | 14:08 |
| LucaLumetti | Adrian1908, for execute an .exe, you must use wine | 14:08 |
| teward | Adrian1908: depends on the programming language | 14:08 |
| teward | Adrian1908: and the runtime compile arguments that need to be included/ran | 14:09 |
| LucaLumetti | else you can use . (ex. ./Directory/program.sh | 14:09 |
| teward | LucaLumetti: they're asking what commands to run to compile | 14:09 |
| teward | LucaLumetti: not how to run a .sh or executable | 14:09 |
| Adrian1908 | It's a compiled binary file (C++ in this case) | 14:09 |
| LucaLumetti | tewar ah oh, sorry | 14:09 |
| Adrian1908 | i.e. I would simply run it as ./program | 14:10 |
| teward | Adrian1908: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7005713/how-to-compile-a-c-program-in-linux is how to compile | 14:10 |
| Adrian1908 | but I can't figure out how to automate this, so that e.g. the path returned by "find" gets executed. | 14:10 |
| teward | (or one method for it) | 14:10 |
| teward | Adrian1908: you still have to run the compiler via `g++ [arguments] -o blah.foo.bar blah.cpp | 14:11 |
| teward | (without the `) | 14:11 |
| Adrian1908 | I know how to compile, check out my original question. I want to create an alias for "make && .\myprogram", that's all. | 14:11 |
| Padawan | does any of you guys use homeshick? | 14:12 |
| Adrian1908 | "myprogram" has to be searched though, since I can't do .\*.exe, as I would on windows. | 14:13 |
| teward | Adrian1908: you didn't make that clear | 14:13 |
| teward | Adrian1908: I don't think `alias` can do that, you'd maybe need to create a shell script to execute the commands | 14:13 |
| teward | and then set the alias to execute that script. | 14:14 |
| teward | (a simple Bash script could do it, or a sh script) | 14:14 |
| Adrian1908 | I see, I'll look into that. Thanks! | 14:14 |
| teward | Adrian1908: note your bash script would need edited if the `cpp` files change and such | 14:15 |
| overjoyedpulp | anyone know how to prevent grub from updating and installing when i upgrade a kernel in 14.04? I use my other distribution for grub purposes | 14:17 |
| overjoyedpulp | (dual boot) | 14:17 |
| ikonia | this is a core problem with grub2 | 14:18 |
| ikonia | the inability to co-exist with other distros | 14:18 |
| overjoyedpulp | ikonia: how? if ubuntu didn't update and install its own grub then I wouldn't have this problem at all | 14:18 |
| ikonia | overjoyedpulp: right, so it's a problem | 14:19 |
| overjoyedpulp | yeah but it's not a grub problem, it's an ubuntu problem. Although i suspect my search terms into google aren't good enough | 14:19 |
| ikonia | which is a weak solution | 14:19 |
| ikonia | the only way I see it working "ok, is to chain load grub on partitions rather than the disk | 14:19 |
| ikonia | overjoyedpulp: of course it's a grub problem | 14:19 |
| ikonia | overjoyedpulp: grub2 now lives in /etc which means distros can't share it like they could with grub 1 on a shared /boot partition | 14:20 |
| overjoyedpulp | ikonia: oh now i get what you're saying | 14:20 |
| thomedy | okay i have a question. | 14:21 |
| thomedy | wait maybe i will wait because this may not be the active room | 14:21 |
| ikonia | seems a bad idea, but "ok" | 14:21 |
| ikonia | you have no way to judge who/what is active until you ask | 14:21 |

| theadmin | HikaruBG: Gib owner, group and permissions | 16:10 |
| camtron | Most things in Unity are fast for me. But it's just that the dash, the software center, and the unity-2d-spread effects are slow as molasses. | 16:10 |

BTW, this is a dual boot Windows 7 / Ubuntu machine.

| OctetStream | hello everyone, nautilus is getting nostalgic in the last few days..it reverts to a different typography (possibly from 10.04) and makes honking sound when I open folders. also the menu tab disappears. how can I bring it back to current appearance without having to restart? | 16:39 |

| ActionParsnip | learts: but we have no idea what options you used when you compiled. You may have removed features needed for automounting etc. | 17:42 |
| kostkon | Quantumpants, install openjdk-7-jre using e.g. the software centre and you are ready to go | 17:42 |

| ActionParsnip | remo: why clone an EOL release? | 17:52 |

| learts | I have to go to dinner now. ActionParsnip: thanks for your help, really appreciated | 17:52 |

| enkienlil | hi peeps; I'm burning a dvd at present using Brasero but even though I've set to burn at x4 it is burning at x8 any ideas? | 18:07 |
| cxm | should my hostname be my fdqn? | 18:10 |
| ActionParsnip | enkienlil: tried a different burning application like xfburn? | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | cxm: in what context? | 18:11 |
| cxm | so i have a hostname right now that is the computer name... | 18:11 |
| cxm | which is of my Azure VM | 18:11 |
| enkienlil | yes it works fine in xfburn - I've re-installed Brasero - reooted and it still burns at the speed it wants, not what I want. | 18:12 |
| enkienlil | Have also had coasters using K3B. | 18:13 |
| cxm | when my VM resets it resets back to the original azure vm hostname... I am just wondering if I should change it back to the fdqn name | 18:13 |
| EriC^^ | VM resets? | 18:14 |
| cxm | yes... either a reboot of the ubuntu box or reboot of the VM itself | 18:14 |
| enkienlil | wondering whether a re-install of Xubuntu would do it? | 18:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Cxm: sounds like some config in the VM is causing the issue, that isn't default behaviour of Ubuntu | 18:15 |
| ActionParsnip | enkienlil: then use xfburn? Easier than a reinstall..... | 18:16 |
| cxm | what do you mean isn't default behavior? | 18:16 |
| cxm | If I reboot the VM it resets back to the original hostname... same if I reboot ubuntu | 18:17 |
| ActionParsnip | cxm: the file /etc/hostname will set the hostname, it will need to match in /etc/hosts | 18:17 |
| enkienlil | logic dictates you are right, however I would like to know why brasero started acting up. Log file gives me nothing. | 18:17 |
| cxm | yes but if I do a reboot it changes... | 18:18 |
| cxm | and when you say matches the /etc/hosts | 18:18 |
| cxm | do you mean the 127.0.0.1... or the designation I give to the 127.0.1.1 | 18:18 |
| cxm | because currently the 127.0.0.1 has localhost and another entry that has the "original hostname" | 18:19 |
| EriC^^ | the 127.0.1.1 has the hostname | 18:19 |
| cxm | and I can make that the fdqn? | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 18:21 |
| asad_ | ok | 18:21 |
| cxm | ok and you're saying when I do this and a reboot happens it won't change it back to the originial hostname? | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | it shouldn't, no | 18:22 |
| MagePsycho | guys you know any good monitoring tool? | 18:22 |
| cxm | ok and my hostname in general should be mydomain.com yes? | 18:22 |
| zigsphere | Monitoring as in how? | 18:23 |
| learts | ActionParsnip: in my custom kernel config USB_STORAGE is not set, that's probably it | 18:24 |
| cxm | is that correct about the hostname... should = mydomain.tld | 18:25 |
| testailen | hello world | 18:27 |
| zigsphere | Hello! | 18:28 |

| dirius | I'm not sure? It's a brand new drive | 18:44 |
| HideMe | dirius, can you see it in the BIOS even? | 18:44 |
| frenda | access as in read but not write? @EriC^^ => both | 18:44 |
| Slart | HideMe: are you sure the network manager is overriding stuff? what problems are you having? or what isn't working the way you want? | 18:45 |
| dirius | No, it says not connected, but I'm not sure what I've done wrong | 18:45 |
| OerHeks | drives > 2.1 gb need gpt compatible fdisk, install gdisk | 18:45 |
| frenda | Are you using samba or nfs? @usr13 --> No! | 18:45 |
| EriC^^ | frenda: both, then use chmod 770 , and add the user's group, chgrp <group> , that will give rwxrwx--- , | 18:45 |
| EriC^^ | so only the other user can read & write | 18:46 |
| dirius | I can't install things as the computer doesn't have a wireless card and I don't have an ethernet cable | 18:46 |
| dirius | Should I plug the drive into a different port on the motherboard? It's currently plugged into SATA2 | 18:46 |
| Slart | dirius: I'm not entirely sure but it might be that the network manager finds that the network connection is already set up... so it doesn't do anything | 18:46 |
| HideMe | Slart I'm editing /etc/network/interfaces: Added eth0 set with static addressing, also added br0 with varios settings. None of it takes when I restart networking. | 18:46 |
| Slart | dirius: sorry.. wrong person | 18:47 |

| cmang_ | hi there - having a really frustrating problem with SMB shares in Unity. I'm trying to mount a smb share off of the network and copy files over to it, as root. the problem is, when I mount the share in the GUI, only my user can access it.. root gets permission denied. (This is a problem as the files I want to copy over are not all owned by my user.) | 18:53 |
| Slart | usr13: yes, that's what I did with the /dev/mapper thingy.. but it doesn't work when I try it.. I might have to go hunt some more in my bootup logs | 18:53 |
| cmang_ | so my question is, wtf? permission denied for root? what madness is this, how can I mount an smb share "Correctly" in ubuntu? | 18:53 |
| shaifali | hello, Trying to repair boot Ubuntu via USB, but it is not asking for boot repair option; only showing 1.try live Ubuntu, 2. Install Ubuntu, 3. Help | 18:53 |
| cmang_ | 12.04 here. | 18:53 |
| Slart | HideMe: ok, skid the network manager thing for now.. just try the init.d stuff and see if that makes it better | 18:53 |
| ActionParsnip | cmang_: what OS is the server? | 18:54 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: Linux (synology diskserver) | 18:54 |
| usr13 | Slart: Well, usually I don't use LVM, (just don't see that much need for it) (it is a little simplier without it). | 18:54 |
| HideMe | Slart, lol I have, hence why I am here. :) | 18:54 |
| ActionParsnip | cmang_: did you set a username and password to authenticate with? | 18:54 |
| Beldar | shaifali, If the disc has boot repair on it you need to boot to the try to use it. | 18:54 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: yes, of course. Otherwise I would not be able to access the share at all. Like I said, I can access the sahre fine as my normal user, but Ubuntu appears to mount it in a way that Root cannot access it. | 18:55 |
| usr13 | Slart: Since gparted will resize partitions on the fly, (as long as you unmount it first), just doesn't seem all that important to use LVM, so... | 18:55 |
| Slart | usr13: yes just regular one partition per drive worked nicely . but I kind of like the idea of being able to move disk space around... and it looked shiny =) | 18:55 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: normally I would just mount the sahre and then sudo cp -a or rsync stuff over. | 18:55 |
| usr13 | Slart: Yea, I hear ya | 18:55 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: so I am putting in my user/pass when mounting it. | 18:55 |
| cmang_ | through the ubuntu gui | 18:56 |
| ActionParsnip | cmang_: check the mount options, if you run "mount" what is the line for the moumt? | 18:56 |

| Beldar | shaifali, try ubuntu live. | 18:56 |
| Slart | HideMe: hmm... I'm not so sure it's the network manager giving you problems.. if you stop the network manager you should be able to work just with the interfaces file and the init.d/networking restart thingy until that works | 18:57 |
| shaifali | Beldar: That I did, but it just started Ubuntu | 18:57 |
| HideMe | Slart, I'll try it. But will the changes stick after reboot? | 18:57 |
| Beldar | shaifali, You have to use your brain here, if you doing a repair why would you choose an install? | 18:58 |
| usr13 | sliddjur: So what do you need? | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | sliddjur: if you are trying to share NTFS using Samba, you are going to have issues | 18:58 |
| Slart | HideMe: as long as you've saved that file it should.. I don't think network manager does anything to that folder | 18:58 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: gvfs-fuse-daemon on /root/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev) | 18:58 |

| sliddjur | usr13: no error | 18:59 |
| sliddjur | ActionParsnip: the folder is in /srv/smb/sharedfolder with chown user:user on sharedfolder | 18:59 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: nope, nothing at all. So apparently ubuntu is mounting using this gvfs to mount it instead of what I'm used to (smbfS) | 19:00 |
| cmang_ | ActionParsnip: it actually shows up in /home/sam/.gvfs but the "mount" line just says /root/.gvfs like I pasted. | 19:00 |
| ActionParsnip | sliddjur: great, you can add the share in /etc/samba/smb.conf | 19:00 |

| [1]Tigger | Hello? | 19:19 |
| MrTorque | trijntje: I am not sure if it will screw my LVM and Raid on the next reboot. | 19:19 |
| cmang | trijntje: the problem is if I try to access the SMB share in the GUI/Unity, it "mounts" it using .gvfs which doesn't appear to be actually mounted at all, and doesn't appear to be accessible as root. | 19:19 |
| usr13 | sliddjur: Can you ping the IP from the MS Windows computer? | 19:20 |
| sliddjur | usr13: yes of course, i am connected via ssh to it | 19:20 |
| cmang | trijntje: I am trying to copy some files off of a usb linux hard drive, with various file ownership, to an SMB share. normally I would just sudo cp -a it, or rsync it, as root. But Ubuntu appears to mount it in some weird way that makes that impossible. | 19:20 |
| trijntje | cmang: why do you want the share to be accesible by root? Ubuntu doesn't have a root account enabled by default | 19:20 |
| [1]Tigger | Hi can someone help me with installing an os on my server box im having major issues and google for once isnt riddled with the answers or if it is i cant find them | 19:20 |
| usr13 | sliddjur: What OS is on the client PC? | 19:20 |
| cmang | trijntje: Because I need to copy files over to the SMB share which are owned by various UIDs. That is the problem. | 19:20 |
| sliddjur | win7 | 19:20 |
| Beldar | camtron, you can turn it off in startup applications. Probably on for any plugin use is my guess. | 19:21 |
| [1]Tigger | If someone can help me im more than happy to reward you | 19:21 |
| camtron | It's not in startup applications. | 19:21 |

| sliddjur | usr13: win 7.... I also checked that port 139 and port 445 are open | 19:22 |

| lebail | Salut i'm trying to find the file containing my mail adesses on my restored old HD. I can't find it in the /.Thunderbird repertory. someone is able to help me ? | 19:34 |
| glitchd | cmang, u should just do a fresh install instead of an upgrade | 19:34 |
| cmang | glitchd: ? I'm not trying to upgrade anything. | 19:35 |
| Sunstream | It is related to the keyboard/mouse glitchd it was nothing more than a minor slowdown on bootup | 19:35 |
| cmang | glitchd: was that for someone else? | 19:35 |
| MrTorque | trijntje: is /etc/fstab the only place where the GUID is needed? | 19:35 |
| trijntje | MrTorque: As far as I know, but I'm no expert. But most programs won't care what the UUID of a partition is and just look at the mount point | 19:35 |
| MrTorque | trijntje: I use LVM, so in my /etc/fstab there is only /dev/mapper/some-name... | 19:36 |
| YamakasY | yeats: huh ? why not ? | 19:36 |
| YamakasY | Bashing-om: 12.04 | 19:36 |
| yeats | YamakasY: it has to do with signing keys for the repo | 19:36 |
| trijntje | MrTorque: ah, and you changed the UUID of the physical partition, not the decrypted partition? | 19:36 |
| Sunstream | It is non critical just it acts like it don't know my Logitech EX100 | 19:36 |
| YamakasY | yeats: no, packages are missing or so | 19:36 |
| Slart | lebail: isn't it in your profile folder? | 19:36 |
| yeats | YamakasY: if I remember right | 19:36 |
| YamakasY | no should all work | 19:36 |
| glitchd | cmang, yes, yes it was | 19:37 |
| glitchd | cmang, sry | 19:37 |
| MrTorque | trijntje: It is the GUID, not the UUID. And yes, of the physical one. However, i did not reboot the system yet and the old GUID is still in use. | 19:37 |
| glitchd | YamakasY, u should just do a fresh install instead of an upgrade | 19:37 |
| Sunstream | glitchd, it is okay its non critical error just a slowing down of the boot up | 19:38 |
| YamakasY | glitchd: huh ? I upgraded already a lot of machine without any issue form public ones | 19:38 |
| Slart | lebail: look for a file called abook.mab in ~/.thunderbird | 19:38 |
| yeats | YamakasY: see this: http://blog.ef.net/2012/10/26/unbutu-release-upgrade-with-local-apt-mirror.html it looks like an environment variable will allow you to upgrade via a local mirror (I didn't know about that when I hit my issue) | 19:38 |
| someone235 | hey, when I'm connected to HDMI, I can't see the TV in the output devices. Anyone knows how to fix it? | 19:38 |

| Melio | I like the filters in thunderbird | 19:38 |
| Melio | but i can live without em using gmail only | 19:38 |
| glitchd | YamakasY, ive always found it better to do a fresh install versus an upgrade install | 19:39 |
| yeats | YamakasY: but if the problem is missing packages, that sounds like a problem with the mirror itself | 19:39 |
| glitchd | YamakasY, less errors | 19:39 |
| Slart | lebail: there is also a history.mab which contains the collected addresses from mail you've recieved | 19:39 |
| YamakasY | glitchd: I'm not going to reinstall 300 servers ;) | 19:39 |
| trijntje | MrTorque: I'm not sure I can help you, I thought you were talking about UUID's, I dont know what GUID is. But for encryption the UUID would be in /etc/crypttab | 19:39 |
| YamakasY | yeats: yes and I have all it should have | 19:39 |

| YamakasY | glitchd: never had errors :D | 19:39 |

| yeats | YamakasY: do you actually want help? | 19:39 |
| glitchd | Sunstream, what happened? | 19:40 |
| YamakasY | yeats: I just say wha I have | 19:40 |
| Bashing-om | YamakasY: If PPAs are disabled, drivers reverted to what is in the repository, system is fully updated, and in 'softeware sources" set to check for LTS, and screen saver disabled. I would expect no problem to make the release upgrade. | 19:40 |
| glitchd | YamakasY, wise decision | 19:40 |
| yeats | YamakasY: best of luck | 19:40 |
| YamakasY | Bashing-om: yeah I read about the PPA's indeed | 19:40 |
| MrTorque | trijntje: I did not encrypt the system yet. So That should not be the problem. | 19:40 |
| YamakasY | glitchd: decision ? huh ? | 19:41 |
| dantje | Tigger: USB 3 support should be configued in trusty for xhci hcd (http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/USB_XHCI_HCD.html) The driver also takes care of the NEC USB host chip. | 19:41 |

| Bashing-om | netlar: In the event of no support for software in the repository, you are at the mercy of the author(s). Did they include removal instructiuons ? Can be a real paon to manually track down all that was installed and manually remove the files !. | 20:15 |

| Slart | lebail: you could exit thunderbird.. make a copy of your current abook.mab and then overwrite the current one with the older one... start thunderbird and export the address-book to something easier to work with... close thunderbird and copy back the new addressbook, start it again and try to import the new exported addressbook | 20:18 |

| yeats | [1]Tigger: can you see any messages on tty4? | 20:30 |
| [1]Tigger | yeats at the moment i dont even have a way to look at that file the console iv screenshotted is the most i can access apart from the ubuntu installer | 20:30 |
| dirius | I've tried using ndiswrapper to install the driver but it keeps saying it's incomplete. I have a .inf and a .sys and a .bin file in the directory, but I think there might be more in the data1.cab and data2.cab files, the only issue is that cabextract and unshield won't open the files | 20:31 |
| yeats | [1]Tigger: try 'tail /var/log/syslog' or 'tail /var/log/dpkg.log' | 20:31 |
| netlar | So every looks ok, probably just being peranoid | 20:32 |

| yeats | [1]Tigger: what is the platform then? | 20:53 |
| [1]Tigger | yeats the kvm client is a completely different remote machine and how does one find this out? | 20:53 |

| UBuxuBU | if i install WINE in ubuntu (or maybe its there already)...can i install avast AV in ubuntu? | 21:09 |
| yeats | UBuxuBU: look into clamav | 21:10 |
| UBuxuBU | i have used clam but it seems kinda useless | 21:10 |
| EriC^^ | ^^ av's on linux usually are | 21:10 |
| yeats | UBuxuBU: well, most would agree that AV software on Ubuntu is pretty unnecessary | 21:10 |
| yeats | !av | 21:11 |
| ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 21:11 |
| UBuxuBU | it is unnecassary for ubuntu itself but not for windows files that have been downloaded into ubuntu | 21:11 |
| UBuxuBU | thus it is very much useful | 21:11 |
| UBuxuBU | so...if i install wine can i then run avast as a file scanner? | 21:12 |
| yeats | UBuxuBU: check out ubottu's link | 21:12 |
| UBuxuBU | or better yet malwarebytes? | 21:12 |
| yeats | UBuxuBU: I wouldn't expect that to work, but you can ask in wine support | 21:12 |
| UBuxuBU | might be a great project | 21:13 |
| UBuxuBU | make malwarebytes run in ubuntu (not real time but on demand) | 21:13 |
| UBuxuBU | avast has a download for ubuntu but it doesnt work | 21:13 |
| camtron | AVG runs natively on Linux, and I believe it can scan for Windows malware. | 21:14 |
| UBuxuBU | yes i once was able to get avg to work in ubuntu but it is very poor product | 21:14 |
| OerHeks | poor = does not find virusses/malware? | 21:16 |
| UBuxuBU | avg is like a rootkit with sheepskin on it | 21:16 |
| UBuxuBU | and doesnt detect or remove malware very well | 21:17 |
| UBuxuBU | avg wants to sell realtime software and are very aggressive in that desire and purposely make thing difficult for those who want free product only which is entirely different with avast and malwarebytes they purposely make a great free product | 21:18 |

| smart_developer | How does one use the logrotate utility to make the ownership,group of a file to be both root,root and someName,someName ? | 21:28 |
| smart_developer | Thanks | 21:29 |
| yeats | smart_developer: look at the configuration file section of 'man logrotate' | 21:31 |
| yeats | smart_developer: looks like 'postrotate' is what you're after | 21:31 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: A file cannot be owned/grouped to two things at the same time. You can either make it root:root, or somename:somename (or r:s and s:r), but you can't have it be owned by root and somename. | 21:34 |
| Flannel | yeats, smart_developer: if the goal is to just set the owner/group, you want to look at the "create" directive, which lets you specify those (or omit them, to keep them the same) | 21:35 |
| yeats | Flannel: thanks - I'm not up on logrotate - just looking at the man page ;-) | 21:36 |
| EriC^^ | Flannel: isn't setfacl used to create additional users? | 21:36 |
| usr13 | EriC^^: It's to set file access control lists | 21:37 |
| EriC^^ | ah ok, doesn't really add owners then | 21:38 |
| usr13 | EriC^^: You can grant additional user read access with it. | 21:39 |
| usr13 | EriC^^: Or revoke access | 21:39 |
| EriC^^ | usr13: yes, im curious if he would be able to delete the file as well | 21:40 |
| usr13 | EriC^^: Yes, you can also revoke write access as well. | 21:40 |
| EriC^^ | as you can't delete a file if it's not owned by you, even if you have write access | 21:40 |
| EriC^^ | usr13: even if you have write, if it's not owned by you, you can't delete or mv it | 21:41 |
| usr13 | EriC^^: That would be the limitations of write access | 21:41 |

| hexafraction | Is there a packaged version of texlive-base 2014? | 21:48 |
| hexafraction | The current version is utterly broken as the default CTAN repos no longer support the newest version of tlmgr/texlive available in the Ubuntu repos, which effectively makes the package unusable. | 21:48 |
| OerHeks | hexafraction, nope, you can do it manually >> http://askubuntu.com/questions/486170/upgrade-from-tex-live-from-2013-to-2014-on-ubuntu-14-04 | 21:50 |
| hexafraction | OerHeks: Thanks, let me try that | 21:52 |
| OerHeks | utopic 14.10 will have 2014 | 21:52 |
| OerHeks | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=texlive | 21:52 |
| usercensored | I need advice. I've recently installed Xubuntu 14.04 (I hop around, I've used it earlier in it's release too), on a old Dell laptop with 2GB RAM, i386 single core, purchased 2005. I'm trying to switch from firefox/iceweasel to chromium/chrome, and both stable chrome and chromium have fast memory leaks on every other web app... What is the cause? My hardware? The browser? The OS? The flash? | 21:52 |
| hexafraction | OerHeks: The installer will install into /opt or /usr/local, so it will leave 2013 in place? | 21:53 |
| OerHeks | hexafraction, seems so, yes, but to be sure backup | 21:53 |
| OerHeks | * if in /usr/local | 21:53 |
| hexafraction | No, I want to get rid of 2013, so I should do that using apt-get remove? | 21:54 |
| hexafraction | My concern is texlive-base's reverse dependencies | 21:54 |
| OerHeks | usercensored, flash on a single core is your issue | 21:54 |
| usercensored | THat would make memory grow indefinitely? My biggest example is gmail, but other things do too. | 21:54 |
| OerHeks | hexafraction, that would be wise, removing it to avoid issues | 21:55 |
| OerHeks | usercensored, you might want to check /var/log why you have issues | 21:56 |
| hexafraction | OerHeks: I'll try that. It would be nice if the maintainers could just backport 2014 to Trusty (it being an LTS) in the long run, as the tlmgr is basically useless at this point. | 21:56 |
| hexafraction | I might file a bug later on. | 21:56 |
| usercensored | OerHeks: ok thanks, my diagnosis skill are less than beginner, lol. | 21:57 |
| usercensored | I can operate the tools, i just don't know what to do with the tools. lol | 21:57 |
| OerHeks | anyway, running flash on such old hardware is likely to crash/give issues | 21:58 |

| smart_developer | my_log.log is being written to by at least 1k per minute. | 22:07 |
| smart_developer | meaning, it grows by at least 1k per minute. | 22:07 |
| smart_developer | but I don't see it rotating... | 22:08 |
| smart_developer | do you know what's wrong with the configuration here? | 22:08 |
| Tam | ikonia: to my belief it is yes, although i'm not sure the line is 100% correct, this is the line: Subsystem sftp /usr/sbin/sftp-server | 22:08 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: How are you calling logrotate? | 22:11 |
| smart_developer | I don't believe I am... should I do this inside the rsyslog configuration, where I specify where that the log should be written to /var/log/my_log.log ? | 22:12 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: logrotate is usually run in a crontab, and usually daily. If you want to rotate logs more frequently than that, you'll need to call it somehow. | 22:15 |
| Flannel | er, not a crontab, but as a cron job. | 22:15 |
| === Iota-Spencer` is now known as IotaSpencer | ||
| smart_developer | Flannel: Thanks, how would you call it so that it will automatically rotate the log whenever it reaches a certain size? | 22:16 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: You'd need to call it more frequently than you'll need, and it'll rotate once a log file is larger than the size. | 22:18 |
| geirha | e.g. mv /etc/cron.daily/logrotate /etc/cron.hourly/logrotate | 22:18 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: using your previous example, of it rotating at 1K and growing "more" than 1K a minute, if you call it minutely, and your log file is 900 bytes, and in one minute it's 2000 bytes, then you'll rotate there, and have a 2000 byte logfile, etc. | 22:19 |
| geirha | you'll also want to reload rsyslog after rotating a logfile that rsyslog writes to | 22:19 |
| Flannel | (it won't rotate at that 900 bytes, because that's not big enough) | 22:19 |
| smart_developer | Is there a way to make it so that it automatically rotates when the 1K capacity is exceeded? | 22:20 |
| smart_developer | Instead of waiting for the minutely mark? | 22:20 |
| smart_developer | (Because, as you pointed out, at that point it may have already reached 2K). | 22:21 |
| usercensored | Can't get answers anywhere else: Anyone know of possibility/feasibility of putting some kind of chrome/chromium OS on i386 laptop? | 22:21 |
| smart_developer | It's somewhat hard to predict how fast the log file will grow. | 22:21 |
| geirha | Then buy a bigger harddrive | 22:22 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: Not with logrotate. logrotate is a program that runs (and takes action of certain things have happened) and quits (and then runs again). I mean, you could technically run it every N seconds, but at some point, you have to stop and wonder if you're really doing something the right way. | 22:22 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: So, lets back up. What are you trying to actually accomplish? | 22:22 |

| smart_developer | Well, if there's a better way to do it than with logrotate, then I'm definitely all-ears. | 22:23 |
| smart_developer | I'm trying to have a rotation scheme for my_log.log, so that there are about 60 of them. So it would be my_log.log, my_log.log.1 through my_log.log.60 | 22:24 |
| smart_developer | or something along those lines. | 22:24 |
| Flannel | No, back up to before that. Why do you want 60 logs of 1K each? | 22:24 |
| geirha | the only sane way to have the logfile rotated at the right time is if the program writes and controls the logfile instead (no syslog). | 22:24 |
| smart_developer | And I haven't decided yet whether the log that is currently being written to should have a max size of 1KB, or 1GB, but the rest of the rotate logs should be compressed. | 22:24 |
| === glomerowisk is now known as paodoce | ||
| geirha | said program will of course also have to have the ability to rotate when a certain size is exceeded | 22:26 |
| === paodoce is now known as glomerowisk | ||
| irrlicht | hey | 22:26 |
| geirha | If you want to go the rsyslog + logrotate route, get one or more additional large hard drives. Enough to not care if a program logs a gig an hour | 22:27 |
| smart_developer | geirha : In regards to your suggestion of the alternative route where you can have the program itself actually write and control the log, instead of using rsyslog, this would also require a time interval used by the program itself to check the size of its log, right? | 22:33 |
| Flannel | smart_developer: Not if the program kept track of the log file size (it does know what it's writing, after all) | 22:33 |
| geirha | smart_developer: right, it would have to keep track | 22:33 |
| geirha | If the program has such a feature, it should be easy to find in the documentation by searching for "logging" | 22:35 |
| smart_developer | Ok, thanks! | 22:35 |
| === glomerowisk is now known as paodoce | ||
| geirha | If not, just get more disk space | 22:36 |
| smart_developer | Finally, if I wanted to go the rsyslog/logrotate route, would I need to "service rsyslog restart" or restart rsyslog in some manner, each time the log gets rotated by logrotate? | 22:36 |
| === paodoce is now known as glomerowisk | ||
| === glomerowisk is now known as paodoce | ||
| geirha | not restart, reload. Look at /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog | 22:37 |
| smart_developer | Interesting... there isn't an /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog | 22:38 |
| smart_developer | but there's an /etc/logrotate.d/syslog | 22:39 |
| smart_developer | I am using rsyslog+logrotate. | 22:39 |
| geirha | smart_developer: what was the ubuntu release version when the system was installed? | 22:40 |
| smart_developer | Actually, the setup that I'm doing this on is RHEL 6.5 | 22:41 |
| smart_developer | because eventually I need this working on that. | 22:42 |
| SchrodingersScat | !ubuntu | smart_developer | 22:42 |
| ubottu | smart_developer: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 22:42 |
| geirha | Ok, well, you should be asking in a RHEL channel then | 22:43 |
| html | hi | 22:45 |
| html | hello? | 22:45 |
| smart_developer | I moved over to Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04 right now, and am still only seeing /etc/logrotate.d/syslog, instead of /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog. | 22:45 |
| html | * sees a tumble weed and smart_developer around. | 22:46 |
| geirha | that's because older releases didn't use rsyslog | 22:46 |
| html | fresh install smart_developer ? | 22:46 |
| usr13 | smart_developer: Fully updated? | 22:47 |
| geirha | and a RHEL channel would be better suited to tell you what type of syslog daemon it uses, and how to manage it | 22:47 |
| smart_developer | Or can anyone share their /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog file if they don't mind? | 22:49 |
| smart_developer | And also, I think it's best to go with this: logrotate hourly and check if the file size is > 1GB. If it is, then rotate. What does your /etc/cron.hourly/file_name bash script need to look like in order to make this work? | 22:51 |
| smart_developer | Sorry, new to all of this, but thanks a lot! | 22:51 |
| NightKhaos | I'm getting a 503 for the nz.archive.ubuntu.com mirrors. | 22:51 |
| geirha | smart_developer: How Ubuntu does it is rather irrelevant if you really want to do this on a RHEL system | 22:52 |
| smart_developer | There is already a logrotate bash file in /etc/cron.daily/ but I want just my my_log.log to rotate every hour (/etc/cron.hourly) | 22:52 |
| smart_developer | geirha : I'd like to make this work on my Ubuntu system as well. | 22:52 |
| === Guest60507 is now known as icedp | ||
| Bashing-om | smart_developer: A default " /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog" : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8346265/ | 22:53 |
| geirha | /etc/cron.daily/logrotate is an sh script, not a bash script | 22:53 |
| spearhead | smart_developer, http://pastebin.com/kp8PfHyU | 22:53 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: logrotate is managed seperately from cron. please read man logrotate.conf. | 22:54 |
| NightKhaos | Can anyone else please confirm if nz.archive.ubuntu.com mirrors are down? | 22:54 |
| === vemacs is now known as vemacs|ded | ||
| geirha | NightKhaos: logrotate is run by cron/anacron | 22:56 |
| yigal | logrotate uses cron, but it can use anacron | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | NightKhaos: Nope, sysop@1404mini:~$ ping -c3 nz.archive.ubuntu.com >> 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2001ms . | 22:58 |
| smart_developer | Ok, how do I just get logrotate to rotate my file every hour? | 22:58 |
| smart_developer | Or at least check it every hour, either way... | 22:58 |
| smart_developer | For now I just want to get the hourly part to work..... | 22:59 |
| NightKhaos | geirha: read what I said: logrotate is MANAGED seperately, i.e. /etc/logrotate.d/ and /etc/logrotate.conf. >.< The fact it is run by cron/anacron is irrelevent, you don't modify cron files to change what logrotate does. | 22:59 |
| raymondillo | NightKhaos: Yes nz.archive.ubuntu.com seem to be down at the moment. | 22:59 |
| raymondillo | ERC> | 22:59 |
| geirha | NightKhaos: Ah, you haven't followed the conversation | 23:00 |
| raymondillo | s/ERC>// :) | 23:00 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: as I said, read the man page. It explains how to configure a log. Included in the paramaters is an "hourly" one. | 23:00 |
| yigal | smart_developer: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/understanding-logrotate-utility | 23:00 |
| smart_developer | Also, from here http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/understanding-logrotate-utility it seems that you actually can make it so that logrotate will rotate based on when a log reaches a certain capacity, instead of a time interval. | 23:01 |
| smart_developer | "The size command takes priority over and replaces a rotation interval if both are set." | 23:01 |
| smart_developer | from the link above. | 23:01 |
| geirha | smart_developer: It still depends on how often you run logrotate | 23:01 |
| NightKhaos | geirha: true. And I just noticed by default ubuntu is silly and does it daily (why?!) | 23:01 |
| Pinkamena_D | It is possible to get a bug "elevated" if you think it is important? | 23:02 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: mv /etc/cron.daily/logrotate /etc/cron.hourly/ | 23:02 |
| yigal | smart_developer: absolutely | 23:02 |
| geirha | NightKhaos: likely because for regular users that more than enough | 23:02 |
| smart_developer | NightKhaos : Are you sure one of the parameters is "hourly"? I have read somewhere that "daily" is the smallest level of granularity that you can get, from purely the logrotate configuration options. | 23:02 |
| _2_luces | mm | 23:02 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: postive, because I just read the manual page. | 23:02 |
| yigal | smart_developer: I came late to the discussion, are you interested in rotating on the size of the log file? | 23:03 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: hourly Log files are rotated every hour. Note that usually logrotate is configured to be run by cron daily. You have | 23:03 |
| NightKhaos | to change this configuration and run logrotate hourly to be able to really rotate logs hourly. | 23:03 |
| NightKhaos | Helpfully it also mentioned changing the cron frequency. :) | 23:03 |
| geirha | I gave him that mv command almost an hour ago. | 23:04 |
| NightKhaos | geirha: *facepalm* | 23:04 |
| OerHeks | "Actually, the setup that I'm doing this on is RHEL 6.5" | 23:04 |
| smart_developer | Ok, so I don't want logrotate to rotate the other log files (for instance, the system log files) hourly as well. | 23:04 |
| smart_developer | so that's why I was hesitant about doing the mv command from /etc/cron.daily/logrotate to /etc/cron.hourly. | 23:04 |
| yigal | smart_developer: if size is what you want use 'maxsize' | 23:05 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: IT WON'T. Jeez, you're changing how often logrotate RUNS, not how often it rotates logs. | 23:05 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: RTFM. Now. | 23:05 |
| geirha | Anyway, I'm out. I'll go to bed now, else I might accidentally hit the caps lock key... | 23:05 |
| NightKhaos | geirha: I can understand that, and I've only been following this for 10 minutes. :P | 23:05 |
| smart_developer | yigal : Yes, I'm interested in rotating on the size of the file. | 23:05 |
| smart_developer | yigal : Except, they're telling me that I am still bound to the time interval as to how often logrotate is actually run. | 23:06 |
| NightKhaos | raymondillo: thanks for confirming. | 23:06 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: correct. log rotate is run periodically. | 23:07 |
| smart_developer | yigal : In the sense that, there's no way for logrotate to automatically detect whenever a log file has gone over a certain size, so that it can rotate it then. | 23:07 |
| raymondillo | NightKhaos: No sweat. Been there. | 23:07 |
| yigal | smart_developer: this is true | 23:07 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: I have to ask, if you have logs that can grow that fast: WHY ARE YOU STORING THEM LOCALLY? | 23:07 |
| yigal | smart_developer: you can create a script to check the size to ensure the desired result occurs, and using cron is likely what you will need | 23:08 |
| smart_developer | Then according to http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/understanding-logrotate-utility | 23:08 |
| smart_developer | What exactly do they mean by "The size command takes priority over and replaces a rotation interval if both are set."? | 23:09 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: 1GB of long an hour is impossible for any human to effectively parse in case of error, you would be better off reengineering your solution to move the logs to a centralised syslog server and indexing them with elstatsearch. | 23:09 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: it means that when run, e.g. daily by default, if you have a weekly parameter set and a maxsize paratmeter set, it will rotate the log if maxsize is reached even if the week hasn't completed. | 23:11 |
| smart_developer | If you have the weekly parameter set in your logrotate.d configuration, right? | 23:12 |
| smart_developer | (not in cron). | 23:12 |
| pngl | I've upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and I have no sound. The sounds configuration menu shows no sound devices. What should I try? | 23:13 |
| smart_developer | In that case, I see what is going on. | 23:13 |
| pngl | lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio" gives me two devices with "access denied" in "Capabitilities" | 23:14 |

| === rrrre445534 is now known as the_mighty_bogan | ||
| smart_developer | So in order for logrotate to rotate my log whenever it's reached a size over 1GB, and in order for logrotate to check this every hour, would I need to do anything other than: | 23:23 |
| smart_developer | 1) Create the following inside /etc/logrotate.d/my_log | 23:23 |
| smart_developer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8346434/ | 23:23 |
| smart_developer | and 2) mv /etc/cron.daily/logrotate /etc/cron.hourly/ | 23:23 |
| smart_developer | Anything else required other than those two steps/instructions? | 23:24 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: looks good. However I would recommend looking into a log management solution if you expect log growth like that. e.g. syslog, logstash, etc... | 23:25 |
| asad_ | HI | 23:27 |
| FailFarm | asad_: hello | 23:28 |
| smart_developer | NightKhaos : I have TBs of disk space so at least for now, I am not too worried about that. | 23:29 |
| smart_developer | But I'll keep the suggestion in mind. | 23:30 |
| NightKhaos | smart_developer: It's not space that concerns me, it's utility. | 23:30 |
| === gorelative is now known as Guest11195 | ||
| smart_developer | Lastly, do I need to do anything with rsyslog, or /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog, or /etc/logrotate.d/syslog each time logrotate is run, or each time my_log.log is rotated by logrotate? | 23:31 |
| smart_developer | Because rsyslog is what is originally directing log output to my_log.log, in the first place. | 23:31 |
| smart_developer | I have /etc/rsyslog.conf set up that way. | 23:31 |
| smart_developer | or /etc/rsyslog.d/00-my_log.conf | 23:32 |
