| Bashing-om | lokke: That card has no proprietary driver available, AMD has dropped support for it. Open source driver is what is recommended . | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| lokke | Bashing-om: thanks - can u tell me wich driver i should install? "radeonhd" is not supported in 14.04 =( | 00:03 |
| rwp | At least two somethings clear the startup screen at boot. One is the plymouth splash screen. | 00:03 |
| rwp | I can remove splash from the kernel boot command line and plymouth no longer clears the boot messages. | 00:03 |
| rwp | But something else still clears the screen losing the start time boot up messages. | 00:03 |
| rwp | I added --noclear to getty on tty1. | 00:03 |
| rwp | There is still some additional something that clears the screen during late boot. | 00:04 |
| HideMe | I'm following the KVM networking guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking to create a bridge network, yet Ubuntu doesn't want to accept it. "sudo invoke-rc.d networking stop" doesn't even work, and suggested changes to /etc/network/interfaces just disable my internet connection. Any advice? | 00:04 |
| rwp | It is a race of some sort. If I boot many times eventually some boot messages appear after the screen was cleared. | 00:04 |
| rwp | Does anyone know what additional something is clearing the screen at boot time? | 00:04 |
| rwp | HideMe, For one you are fighting with NetworkManager. | 00:05 |
| expunge | rwp: what happens? | 00:05 |
| ikonia | HideMe: it disables your internet connection because the physical card no longer gets an IP address, the bridge device should, however I suspect the bridge device is not getting a network address as you've not bound it to the physical device correctly | 00:05 |
| ikonia | HideMe: hence "no internet" | 00:05 |

| ikonia | that is the most common cause | 00:05 |
| rwp | expunge, The boot time screen is cleared at the end of boot erasing any boot time error message from the screen. I would like to see those messages. | 00:06 |
| spearhead | rwp, have you looked in /var/log/boot.log? | 00:06 |
| HideMe | ikonia, Even though my interfaces file looks identical (sub in my IP) to the example? | 00:06 |
| ikonia | HideMe: no idea about/not interested in the example | 00:07 |
| rwp | spearhead, That requires logging into the machine. I would rather have it simply leave the error on the screen. | 00:07 |
| ikonia | HideMe: check if your bridge device gets an ip/if you've configured a valid IP on the bridge device | 00:07 |
| spearhead | rwp, oh ok, I can't help you there... | 00:07 |

| rwp | It is one of those frustrating things. It shows me the message and then a fractional second later it is gone. Grr... | 00:08 |
| HideMe | ikonia, I also find that a reboot is required to test my changes, I assume network-manager is causing this? | 00:08 |
| ikonia | HideMe: I'd advice you not to try to manually configure device while network manager is also trying to configure devices, use one or the other | 00:09 |
| ikonia | HideMe: you'll find that is a fight that no-one wins | 00:09 |
| Helsinkiii | So, if I torrent something or view a really media-rich webpage with ads, i get a complete crash | 00:09 |
| rwp | If a device is listed in /etc/network/interfaces then NetworkManager will ignore it. | 00:09 |
| HideMe | ikonia, Yes... I'm starting to see that. lol | 00:09 |
| Helsinkiii | and i often see a "no suitable module for running kernel found (fail)" | 00:09 |
| expunge | Helsinkiii: ? | 00:10 |
| rwp | But a reboot might be needed if NetworkManager started thinking it had control of it initially. | 00:10 |
| Helsinkiii | so any ideas why a torrent or media/ad rich web page causes my whole system to crash, requiring a hard reboot? | 00:10 |
| ikonia | Helsinkiii: I'd try to focus on one of this situations, then narrow it down | 00:11 |
| rwp | Helsinkiii, Unfortunately that sounds like flakey hardware to me. I would run memtest86+ overnight. | 00:11 |
| Helsinkiii | rwp, did, nada | 00:12 |
| Helsinkiii | i think it might be wifi-driver related, but i don't have a real cable to test that out | 00:12 |
| Helsinkiii | lol "Real" cable | 00:12 |
| HideMe | ikonia, Do you know of a guide for setting up KVM bridged network within network-manager? | 00:12 |
| rwp | That is too bad. Because that would have been easy to fix. It can still be something flakey. | 00:12 |

| Helsinkiii | rwp it happened just now and I saw a red line after the panic saying ""no suitable module for running kernel found (fail)" | 00:13 |
| ikonia | HideMe: should be reasonably straight forward, just add a br device, and link it to your eth device, although I've not got network manager here to confirm | 00:13 |
| rwp | HideMe, Here is my working KVM network bridge using /etc/network/interfaces and NOT NetworkManager. http://pastebin.com/6QjeKAfZ | 00:14 |

| LS1 | hi, I just installed the maliit keyboard but how can I launch it? | 00:17 |
| Bashing-om | lokke: Before (re-)installing 'radeon' one must make sure any pieces of the proprietary driver have been removed. Then we can install open soutce. | 00:17 |
| rwp | Helsinkiii, When I search for the problem the hits all seem related to VirtualBox. | 00:17 |

| Nothing_Much | You installing Ubuntu | 00:37 |
| Vyun | it did not ask for consent the last time I used the system 2 years ago, just asking if they changed it | 00:37 |

| Nothing_Much | Yeah, I hate Compiz | 00:39 |
| Nothing_Much | That's the one thing I hate about Unity | 00:39 |

| HideMe | rwp, http://pastebin.com/m0Z2FFkM | 00:42 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: well I just saw a random blog post claiming ordinary ubuntu with unity installed on arm | 00:43 |
| spearhead | Nothing_Much, apparently there are lots of people putting ubuntu on chromebooks which are arm based | 00:43 |
| expunge | so go forth | 00:43 |
| Nothing_Much | Hm. | 00:43 |
| rwp | HideMe, Not sure about the "auto eth0" line. I think it doesn't matter since it is marked "manual". | 00:43 |
| Nothing_Much | Okay, another question, are there websites that have recommendations for ARM desktops at all? | 00:43 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: for desktop environments? | 00:44 |
| Nothing_Much | The last one I had had PowerVR graphics though | 00:44 |
| spearhead | Nothing_Much, I just searched for ubuntu unity on arm | 00:44 |
| expunge | or for hardware? | 00:44 |
| rwp | HideMe, Please remove the "network" line as that isn't ever needed. You must be looking at an older example. People have been trying to clear that from older examples for a couple of years now. | 00:44 |
| HideMe | rwp soon as I reboot with that config then I loose my internet connection. | 00:44 |

| fission6 | i am currently under my user account, i did crontab -e and placed an entry in, however it doesn't appear to me running, can i do crontab -e as my user or do i need to be root? | 00:44 |

| ilyas | hello | 00:45 |
| expunge | ilyas: hi | 00:45 |
| rwp | HideMe, Also please remove "broadcast" for the same reason as "network". Both are redundant with "netmask". netmask is good. Keep netmask. | 00:45 |
| somsip | fission6: if you crontab as a user, then you edit the user's crontab. If you sudo crontab -e then you edit the root user crontab | 00:45 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: do you want arm, or do you actually just want affordable and low power? | 00:45 |
| spearhead | HideMe, rwp, the auto eth0 line tells it to automatically bring up that interface | 00:45 |
| HideMe | rwp I'm following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking | 00:45 |
| Basketball | can i control pc from voice | 00:45 |
| Nothing_Much | expunge: ARM, I have a 45watt x86 AMD CPU and my room STILL heats up | 00:45 |
| ilyas | wath ! | 00:45 |
| fission6 | somsip: that makes sense, but do i have to *do* anything special if i doit as a user, or will cron pick it up, becaus e the job isn't running | 00:46 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: why do you want arm specifically? | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | Argh, I wish ARM was more common on desktops and had games that ran on graphics | 00:46 |
| expunge | it's plenty common | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | expunge: Because of the low power and especially heat | 00:46 |
| expunge | they just don't call them 'desktops', 'cause that'd be pointless | 00:46 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: okay | 00:46 |
| rwp | spearhead, "auto" is the old way. "allow-hotplug" is the new way. But br0 is the interface that needs to come up not eth0. | 00:46 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: it's just a budgetary game at this point | 00:46 |
| somsip | fission6: usually this is because the script being run makes assumptions about the environment which maybe are not available to the cron daemon. Like ENV variables and relative paths, eg: ~/ | 00:46 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: you can get cheaper ones that aren't quite as cutting edge | 00:46 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: or spend a little more and get fancier ones | 00:46 |
| rwp | With "auto" boot was (in the old days) synchronous with /etc/init.d/networking. | 00:47 |
| fission6 | somsip: him how can i test or see whats happening | 00:47 |
| expunge | the original rpi model b's are probably the cheapest, but only by $20-$30 really | 00:47 |
| Nothing_Much | I can compile FOSS games and there's some even compiled in Ubuntu's repos | 00:47 |
| Nothing_Much | Such as 0AD | 00:47 |
| rwp | With "allow-hotplug" the idea is that everything is event driven as the interface is discovered. | 00:47 |
| rwp | The old way was "/etc/init.d/networking restart" (then "service networking restart"). | 00:47 |
| spearhead | rwp, I would still rather it bring the interface up and then wait for a connection... | 00:47 |
| expunge | Nothing_Much: https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox/TargetedHardware has a good roundup | 00:47 |
| somsip | fission6: edit the crontab and append 2> /tmp/cronlog (or similar) to the end. This will output any errors in the script | 00:48 |
| rwp | The new way is "ifup eth0" and "ifdown eth0". | 00:48 |
| somsip | fission6: ...output to the named file... | 00:48 |
| rwp | spearhead, If I am running NIS then I always use "auto eth0" too. Because then the system requires networking. | 00:48 |
| fission6 | somsip: i see this (CRON) info (No MTA installed, discarding output) | 00:48 |
| rwp | spearhead, But on a mobile laptop I always use "allow-hotplug" so that it can come and go. | 00:48 |
| fission6 | somsip: grep CRON /var/log/syslog | 00:48 |
| rwp | Different environments need different things. | 00:48 |
| somsip | fission6: that will tell you if it's failed, though tail -f /var/log/syslog might be easier to monitor | 00:49 |
| spearhead | rwp, I just use the same on all... actually my main laptop I just let network manager take care of it... | 00:49 |
| rwp | HideMe, When the network has failed and doesn't work for you what is the output of "ip addr show" on your system? Please pastebin it. | 00:49 |
| rwp | spearhead, NetworkManager is yet another way. And WICD is yet another alternative way to that. | 00:50 |
| rwp | HideMe, Here is an example ip addr show from my KVM machine. http://pastebin.com/yXTERNzb | 00:50 |
| HideMe | rwp Being that network-manager is still installed, how do I get my interface changes to take without rebooting? | 00:50 |
| rwp | HideMe, I am hoping you will be missing something that we can detect as a clue as to why your system isn't happyp. | 00:50 |
| rwp | HideMe, Good question. Not sure. Is there a way to tell NM to shutdown and let go of a connection? | 00:51 |
| spearhead | rwp, if he is trying to bridge to eth0 then doesn't eth0 have to be up? | 00:51 |
| HideMe | rwp Ive tried what was suggested in that guide, but it gets ignored. lol | 00:51 |
| HideMe | rwp guess I'll have to reconnect. brb. | 00:52 |
| rwp | spearhead, In this context "up" has a specific meaning. Normally you don't configure eth0 by itself. Normally you configure the bridge br0 and it brings up eth0. | 00:52 |
| spearhead | rwp, HideMe, sudo stop network-manager | 00:52 |
| rwp | HideMe, I know you mentioned some guide now lost back in the scroll history. But *I* wasn't motivated to look (sorry) because I have it working for me. | 00:53 |
| rwp | HideMe, If you paste in the URL again I will look at it this time. | 00:53 |
| spearhead | rwp, ok, I thought that eth0 had to be up for br0 to connect to it... | 00:53 |
| rwp | JFTR the reason I don't like NM is that it is has dropped the network on me too many times. It did it again today on an Ubuntu machine that I was trying to set up over the network. It's most common failure mode is that you are now disconnected. Argh. So I always use ifupdown instead since that has been rock solid for years. | 00:54 |
| rwp | But the difference is servers versus a mobile laptop. | 00:55 |
| rwp | Servers should be stable. They don't need NM. | 00:55 |
| HideMe | rwp http://pastebin.com/3y7AAmtY | 00:55 |
| spearhead | I agree, I never use NM on a server. | 00:55 |
| HideMe | rwp The guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking | 00:56 |
| rwp | HideMe, Is your main network eth0 or wlan0? | 00:56 |
| HideMe | rwp according to ifconfig it's eth0 | 00:57 |
| rwp | That page shows "auto eth0" for the manual eth0 connection so that must be okay. Answering my question from before. | 00:57 |
| ilyas | ++ | 00:57 |
| rwp | HideMe, Your listing shows a virbr0 device too. Hmm... A clue there but I don't know what. | 00:58 |
| HideMe | rwp virbr0 is for it your qemu config has "user" vs "tap". | 00:59 |
| rwp | HideMe, I want to hack on that wiki page and update it. | 01:01 |
| HideMe | rwp do you assign static IP's to your VMs? | 01:01 |
| rwp | There is no reason for a user to use "invoke-rc.d networking stop". That is for in package postinst scripts. Users should use "service networking stop". | 01:01 |
| rwp | HideMe, I do for my case. I want to be able to connect to them from the outside world. | 01:02 |
| ilyas | hi | 01:02 |
| HideMe | rwp Can you show me how to do that, without loosing network-manager? | 01:02 |
| rwp | HideMe, If you don't need external connectivity then you can avoid this whole bridge issue and use "host" networking instead. That allows outgoing from the VM networking using a software NAT. | 01:03 |
| expunge | ilyas: hey again | 01:03 |
| HideMe | rwp Yeah, I've got that now. But I'd like my VM's to talk to the outside world and eachother. | 01:04 |
| ilyas | thanks | 01:04 |
| HideMe | rwp Upon set-up, give the VM a static IP and be done with it. | 01:04 |
| rwp | There are so many ways for something to fail. And usually exactly one way for it to work correctly. That debugging can be hard. | 01:04 |
| rwp | HideMe, The VM can have a static IP but then it needs the bridge in order to communicate through using that IP. | 01:05 |
| ilyas | exit | 01:05 |
| HideMe | rwp back to square one. lol | 01:05 |
| rwp | HideMe, I still think your ip addr show output has clues. I don't know how to interpret those clues though. | 01:06 |
| rwp | HideMe, It has a virbr0 that came from somewhere. The br0 isn't populated. | 01:08 |
| HideMe | rwp going to try stopping networking with 'service networking stop' config as I'd pasted and then restart networking. | 01:08 |
| HideMe | rwp yeah, it came from qemu install. virbr0 is for it your qemu config has "user" vs "tap". | 01:09 |
| rwp | HideMe, And since I don't use NM I don't know how to tell NM to build the bridge itself. And apparently no one else in the channel knows this either or they would volunteer it. | 01:10 |
| Dramors | Hey people, I'm on 14.04 and the dash shows me no applications after running the software updater | 01:10 |
| Dramors | How can I fix this? | 01:10 |
| HideMe | rwp service networking stop stop: Unknown job: networking | 01:10 |
| HideMe | oh n/m forgot sudo | 01:11 |
| YantriCorp | does linux have a file path like a logical network port map such as /network/tcp/22/in or /network/tcp/22/out just listen and spit stuff out with cat or tail or an of the fopen tools or what have you...any plan for this feature in future or something like it? | 01:11 |
| rwp | HideMe, "ls /etc/init.d |grep net" and hopfully you will see /etc/init.d/networking there. | 01:11 |
| HideMe | rwp yes. | 01:12 |
| rwp | Then really "service networking stop" should trigger that script. | 01:12 |
| HideMe | rwp fyi sudo service networking stop don't work. | 01:12 |
| spearhead | HideMe, sudo stop network-manager | 01:12 |
| rwp | spearhead, Will stopping NM really be sufficient? I worry. | 01:13 |
| Dramors | Hey people, I'm on 14.04 and the dash shows me no applications after running the software updater. Any ideas how to fix this? | 01:13 |
| * rwp my time grows short. | 01:13 | |
| spearhead | rwp, I don't know either... | 01:13 |
| HideMe | spearhead, according to the guide, sudo invoke-rc.d networking stop is recommended to stop networking before config. | 01:13 |
| Dramors | I googled but found no relevant results for 14.04. There was a result that told me to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -A but theres no such option anymore | 01:14 |
| spearhead | HideMe, ok, try sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop | 01:14 |
| rwp | One of the long running issues has been if a device is up and configured. But then the config file is changed. People stop using the new config. | 01:14 |
| === YantriCorp is now known as hagnostick | ||
| rwp | And then it can't really stop because the config is different from when it was started. | 01:14 |
| === hagnostick is now known as hAgnostick | ||
| rwp | Out of sync between the starts and the stops with different configs edited between. | 01:14 |
| HideMe | spearhead, Does nothing. :) | 01:14 |
| rwp | So it is always safer to stop things first, make all of the edits, then start things back up again. | 01:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | sudo dpkg --configure -a still exists | 01:15 |
| eeee | HideMe: sudo service network-manager stop | 01:15 |
| Dramors | DonkeyHotei: Is that the same thing? I'm asking cause in the reply I read it was capitalized | 01:15 |
| HideMe | eeee Trying to stop/start networking as a whole. | 01:15 |
| DonkeyHotei | there was never a -A | 01:15 |
| Dramors | Ah okay I see | 01:15 |
| Dramors | thanks :) | 01:15 |
| === hAgnostick is now known as pingUSkhan | ||
| spearhead | HideMe, does it do nothing, or print an error? | 01:16 |
| rwp | Dramors, And also "dpkg-reconfigure" is not quite the same as "dpkg --configure". | 01:16 |
| HideMe | spearhead, does nothing. | 01:17 |
| * rwp is out of time now. | 01:17 | |
| HideMe | rwp Thanks anyway. :) | 01:17 |
| rwp | HideMe, Sorry I wasn't of more help. Good luck getting your bridge running. | 01:17 |

| cmyers_laptop | how do I debug this? | 02:17 |
| cmyers_laptop | how do you upgrade, if not via the package manager? | 02:17 |
| ikonia | cmyers_laptop: I'd suggest you backup your data and do a clean 14.04 install | 02:17 |

| expunge | damccull: hold down CTRL+c | 02:46 |
| damccull | thanks | 02:46 |
| damccull | WOO! | 02:47 |
| damccull | Thanks :D | 02:47 |
| damccull | works like a char | 02:47 |
| damccull | m | 02:47 |
| damccull | i guess it was killing the instance of ping | 02:47 |
| damccull | instead of the script? | 02:47 |
| expunge | well if it was a loop | 02:47 |
| expunge | it was probably just starting again | 02:47 |
| expunge | hold down CTRL+c, and _usually_, eventually, you catch it while it's restarting | 02:47 |
| damccull | i see | 02:47 |
| damccull | that's awesome | 02:47 |
| expunge | s/and/you/ | 02:47 |
| damccull | so how would you do it if you can't catch it? | 02:48 |
| expunge | whoops, n/m | 02:48 |
| expunge | if you can't catch it, you switch to another term/tty as fast as you can | 02:48 |
| expunge | and kill it | 02:48 |
| expunge | it's good to put a delay in your scripts =) | 02:48 |
| expunge | and even checks for sanity | 02:48 |
| damccull | ah | 02:50 |
| damccull | well i wasn't planning to use this for longer than abuot 10 minutes then delete it :D | 02:50 |
| damccull | I was watching for the IP switch on my dns change | 02:50 |
| braino | daftykins: just saw that from the other channel | 02:50 |
| damccull | so it wasn't 'localhost' but my domain name | 02:50 |
| braino | got nothing against ubuntu, but the ops in here are weal | 02:51 |
| braino | weak* | 02:51 |
| suzy | o/ | 02:53 |
| expunge | braino: that's everywhere =) | 02:53 |
| expunge | suzy: heya | 02:53 |

| expunge | ohai | 02:55 |
| SASDOE | hey guys, I have a server (14.04), root is on ext4 and home brtfs. Every two weeks (give or take), it just completely hangs, breaking all networking (so can't SSH into it, have to reboot with hard button -- will reboot shutdown properly though, in about 10 times as much time is usually does). And I have messages such as "process something something has something something for 120 seconds. to disable this message echo something something/kernel" | 02:59 |
| SASDOE | I was blaming brtfs, but since it is not the root partition I don't know. | 02:59 |
| expunge | SASDOE: uevents? =) | 02:59 |
| SASDOE | Any ideas of what I can do? And mainly can I either prevent it (preferably) or have it restart in such event by itself? | 03:00 |
| SASDOE | expunge: say what? :) | 03:00 |
| gorelative | ikonia, it was because i didnt have deb-src defined :) | 03:00 |
| expunge | SASDOE: is it a vm? | 03:00 |
| braino | line 4 - suzy wins | 03:00 |
| suzy | ;) | 03:01 |
| deanclkclk | anyone here uses cygwin? | 03:01 |
| SASDOE | No physical server. Has ECC ram and xeon3 | 03:01 |
| expunge | deanclkclk: probably some people do | 03:01 |
| expunge | SASDOE: doubt the processing msgs are related, particularly | 03:01 |
| SASDOE | However I have seen the 120 seconds messages without it being hanged | 03:02 |
| SASDOE | Ok. Then how can I catch such a hang and have it reboot, or better yet, prevent this hang? | 03:02 |
| capellan | Is there anywhere I can find resources for manually installing Ubuntu like with arch? I have a small x86_32 machine with a 2GB SSD, and it's too small for even Lubuntu, so I'm looking to install a base and work from there | 03:04 |
| expunge | SASDOE: have to investigate | 03:04 |
| expunge | capellan: debootstrap | 03:04 |
| xangua | !minimal | capellan | 03:04 |
| ubottu | capellan: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 03:04 |
| rightmess | I've _just_ installed Gnome3. Is the recommended way to change the theme really with gnome tweak tool? | 03:05 |
| expunge | recommended by? | 03:05 |
| TJ- | SASDOE: You really need remote KVM to deal with that; do you have that option? | 03:05 |
| capellan | expunge: Bingo, thanks | 03:05 |
| unkn-error | can some one find a package for me | 03:05 |
| somsip | unkn-error: what package? | 03:05 |
| SASDOE | expunge: so where should I look? | 03:05 |
| unkn-error | http://nixdoc.net/man-pages/FreeBSD/ee.1.html | 03:06 |
| unkn-error | it is Easy Editor " ee " | 03:06 |
| SASDOE | TJ-: well if not over 100$ it could be. | 03:06 |
| somsip | !find easy | 03:06 |
| ubottu | Found: apparmor-easyprof, apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu, libeasymock-java, libeasymock-java-doc, easyspice, easy-rsa, easychem, easygit, easyh10, easymp3gain-data (and 25 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=easy&searchon=names&suite=trusty§ion=all | 03:06 |
| capellan | ubottu: How well does it support wi-fi these days? | 03:06 |
| ubottu | capellan: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:06 |
| somsip | !info ee | unkn-error | 03:06 |
| ubottu | unkn-error: Package ee does not exist in trusty | 03:06 |
| unkn-error | thank you... is there a reason for not existing like being deprecated / obsolete / security risk etc? | 03:07 |
| somsip | unkn-error: looks like it was in the repos once, but not any more | 03:07 |
| TJ- | SASDOE: syslog and kern.log should be capturing those messages, if their file-systems aren't the issue | 03:07 |
| bwmc | is best pony | 03:08 |
| unkn-error | Thank you for help somsip | 03:09 |
| Serraphyn | Hello again, I'm building a PC for my nephew and I have just put it together and its a Core 2 Duo Quad Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz with 8GB of Ram and an Nvidia 250 GTS card. I've also added a USB 3.0 micro card. Would this be good to run Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit on? | 03:09 |
| capellan | xangua: How well does it support wifi these days? (seeing as the bot didn't know) | 03:09 |
| SASDOE | Ok, so next time I have a crash, hopefully not to soon since I am 7000km from server, I'll save both and come back | 03:09 |
| xangua | capellan: you can download ubuntu and comprobe it yourseld | 03:09 |
| xangua | !hardware | capellan | 03:09 |
| ubottu | capellan: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 03:09 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: sure | 03:09 |
| capellan | xangua: Fair enough. | 03:10 |
| DonkeyHotei | [Sun 2014-09-14 10:02:21 PM PDT] <DonkeyHotei> so i finally upgraded precise to trusty and i have a couple hiccups | 03:10 |
| DonkeyHotei | [Sun 2014-09-14 10:02:43 PM PDT] <DonkeyHotei> text antialiasing is not working right | 03:10 |
| DonkeyHotei | [Sun 2014-09-14 10:02:51 PM PDT] <DonkeyHotei> the screen is hard to read | 03:10 |
| somsip | DonkeyHotei: please stop repasting something from a few days ago and just state your real problem | 03:11 |
| DonkeyHotei | somsip: that's the first problem right there | 03:11 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: do you think that is better then http://ca.gateway.com/gw/en/CA/content/model/DT.GEJAA.001? | 03:11 |
| SASDOE | Oh and can't I buy something to have control over ACPI controls over internet? | 03:12 |
| expunge | significantly | 03:12 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: ^ | 03:12 |
| xangua | DonkeyHotei: did you try a new user profile? to check there might not be some config in your home | 03:12 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: oh wait 10gb ram =P | 03:12 |
| SASDOE | Because KVM wouldn't work, even local login hangs to much to work. | 03:13 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: nah just kinda samey then | 03:13 |
| DonkeyHotei | xangua: lemme try the guest user real quick | 03:13 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: but if you assembled it yourself, in general it's probably better than a gateway =) | 03:13 |
| TJ- | SASDOE: You really need IPMI on a remote server like that | 03:14 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: Just AMD 4 core 2.0GHz vs Intel 4 Core 2.4 Ghz | 03:14 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: they're pretty close, by the numbers | 03:14 |
| Serraphyn | Cause I think the 10GB of ram is really 9 or 8 because of the on board video | 03:14 |
| expunge | it's not a huge difference, no | 03:15 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: maybe I'll give the wife the gateway with windows 8 to play World of Warcraft on :D | 03:15 |
| expunge | the average mortal would be happy with about 2GB of RAM =P | 03:15 |
| SASDOE | TJ-: Mhh but that implies changing motherboard does it not? Can't buy a IPMI module right? | 03:16 |
| TJ- | SASDOE: server class motherboards usually have a lights-out option board, IPMI or something equivalent | 03:17 |
| hualet | hi #ubuntu, will there be any logs or records after switching user using command 'su'? | 03:18 |
| DonkeyHotei | xangua: seems in the guest session, i have no mouse | 03:18 |
| hualet | i want to list all the users that are currently logged in. | 03:19 |
| SASDOE | Gigabyte GA-6UASL3 doesn't unfortunatly, so I'd have to change my mb, possibly RAM as well. Sh*t | 03:19 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: now I'm wondering if I should go with ubuntu or something 'more' like LFS | 03:19 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: LFS is about learning how to make a distro | 03:20 |
| Serraphyn | ah | 03:20 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: from scratch, like your own distro, to maintain and create a package manager for, from scratch =) | 03:20 |
| expunge | a non-derivate from-scratch distro =) | 03:20 |
| expunge | good thing to learn with, probably not what you're looking for at this particular moment | 03:20 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: did you want something other than Ubuntu for any particular reason? | 03:21 |
| expunge | just a question =) | 03:22 |
| Bashing-om | hualet: "i want to list all the users that are currently logged in" -> terminal command: " users " do that for you ? | 03:23 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: I used to use gentoo a long time ago cause supposedly it was better to compile everything | 03:24 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: it is, of course | 03:25 |
| expunge | takes more server time, though | 03:25 |
| expunge | s/server/cpu/ | 03:26 |
| capellan | q | 03:26 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: I got 5 computers and a laptop in one room, I'm not to worried about having nothing to do | 03:26 |
| expunge | although it needn't, Gentoo just doesn't have much in the way of binary repos for some reason | 03:26 |
| expunge | well it's not really about something to do, because it's not like you have to watch it compile | 03:26 |
| expunge | but it does take cpu cycles that all bins wouldn't | 03:26 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: true | 03:26 |
| expunge | worth it for the stability, IMO | 03:26 |
| Serraphyn | hmm idea, how hard is it to setup distributed computing? | 03:27 |
| expunge | pretty easy, particularly with Gentoo | 03:27 |
| Serraphyn | since I have 3 linux boxes | 03:27 |
| Serraphyn | hmm I'll have to figure out how to install | 03:27 |
| === jessie_ is now known as Guest60163 | ||
| expunge | stuff like http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Distcc/Cross-Compiling | 03:28 |
| Serraphyn | hmm might be kinda fun to see if Icould get something working, most of my gear is wifi, but all the built in nic are doing nothing and I could have a seperate network with a hub for them :D | 03:28 |
| expunge | I'm sure it'd be cute | 03:29 |
| expunge | but it's not like it really matters if it takes a single machine a day to build 300 packages | 03:29 |
| expunge | even if you only updated subsequently once a week or month, it wouldn't ever be that many again | 03:29 |
| expunge | and it wouldn't matter if it was | 03:30 |
| Serraphyn | yeah I guess :-/ | 03:30 |
| Serraphyn | expunge: you seem knolwedgable of gentoo, stage3 or minimal? | 03:30 |
| expunge | Serraphyn: stage3 refers to the tarball you extract, minimal is just a live OS image | 03:31 |
| expunge | you can install from most any live OS image | 03:31 |
| expunge | should probably hit up #gentoo if you want that, though | 03:31 |
| Serraphyn | okay thanks for the tips | 03:31 |
| SASDOE | Does anyone have a not overly expensive IPMI and ECC MB they could recommend? | 03:31 |
| expunge | SASDOE: maybe #hardware ? | 03:31 |
| Guest60163 | hey everyone. I'm extremly knew to ubuntu and i made a huge mistake when I tried to run windows and ubunto side by side. now my windows is completely gone. MY question is how can I reinstall windows from a usb. I already have one set up to install windows again. I just have no clue how to boot ubuntu from the usb | 03:34 |
| expunge | Guest60163: what makes you think it's gone? | 03:34 |
| SASDOE | expunge: thanks | 03:34 |
| expunge | =) | 03:34 |
| Guest60163 | theres no way for me to get to it if its there. to my knowledge. however I really am super new at this. | 03:35 |

| Iz_ | I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a VPN issue? | 03:45 |
| rainbowwarrior | hello | 03:45 |
| gkatsev | I recently did a fresh install of ubuntu 14.04 and installed vlc. Now when I run vlc I get 'bus error' and no other messages. Any ideas how to debug this and fix it? | 03:45 |
| Guest60163 | I posted the link does it mean anything? | 03:45 |
| Iz_ | It works for about a minute then all connection drops | 03:45 |
| Iz_ | but it doesn't disconnect | 03:45 |
| Bashing-om | Guest60163: Yeah, we are awaiting expunge to be the bearer, You must not shoot the messenger ! . | 03:47 |
| Guest60163 | lol ah I was just curious. im patient :) | 03:48 |
| Guest60163 | how do I change my user name on here so it doesnt say guest | 03:49 |
| expunge | heh | 03:49 |
| gkatsev | Guest60163: /nick foo | 03:49 |
| expunge | Guest60163: if you only have one disk, yeah, it looks like Windows is gone | 03:49 |
| Guest60163 | how can I boot from the usb so I can reinstall it? | 03:49 |
| expunge | Guest60163: theoretically much of the data is likely still there, though; if you had something very important you could try and recover it | 03:49 |
| Guest60163 | or is there an easier way to do it | 03:49 |
| expunge | Guest60163: you just tell your BIOS/EFI to boot from the USB | 03:50 |
| expunge | Guest60163: but | 03:50 |
| expunge | Guest60163: you have to put the image onto the USB correctly =) | 03:50 |
| Iz_ | Anyone have any clues on where to start troubleshooting an openVPN problem? | 03:50 |
| Guest60163 | i used the microsoft program to make the usb a bootable one | 03:50 |
| expunge | Guest60163: well, I've heard that works sometimes =) | 03:50 |
| expunge | Guest60163: hopefully when your computer boots up it tells you how to access the bios/u/efi options | 03:51 |
| expunge | Guest60163: otherwise just try tapping esc, or f12, etc. | 03:51 |
| Guest60163 | any other way? im not computer savy and ubuntu is driving me crazy lol | 03:51 |
| expunge | Iz_: by defining the problem? =) | 03:51 |
| expunge | Guest60163: other way to do what? | 03:51 |
| Guest60163 | to remove ubuntu and put windows back? | 03:52 |
| expunge | Guest60163: booting install media is the normal way | 03:52 |
| Guest60163 | ah ok ill try it | 03:52 |

| ezio | anyone know how to configure libmyodbc ... i install iodbc but it removes libmyodbc, so i literally can't get the program that configures it | 05:50 |
| Chenzenp | hey guys i really am sorry to post this here becuz i user debian Derivatives but search almost whole web and try everything but couldn't do anything about, i am frustrated now can somebody help me to fix this http://paste.debian.net/121099/ ? | 05:58 |
| TJ- | ezio: check the package versions of libiodbc and libmyodbc - older versions have Breaks clauses in the control file | 06:00 |
| ezio | TJ-, i don't know what you mean ... how can i check the package versions? | 06:00 |
| geirha | Chenzenp: sudo locale-gen en_GB.utf8 en_US.utf8 | 06:01 |
| TJ- | Chenzenp: See "man locale-gen" | 06:01 |
| TJ- | ezio: "apt-cache show <pkg>" | 06:01 |
| TJ- | ezio: And "apt-cache policy <pkg>" to check installed and available versions | 06:02 |
| ezio | i think what i really need to know is what is the proper way to configure odbc | 06:02 |
| ezio | aall i get is old results | 06:03 |
| Chenzenp | geirha, and TJ- the problem is it dosnt have locale-gen it uses localedef | 06:05 |
| geirha | Chenzenp: Install the locales package | 06:06 |

| fancyfetus | somsip, got it | 06:25 |
| fancyfetus | I had ubuntu installed on a seperate partition | 06:25 |
| Bobbo | fancyfetus: I believe that belongs on reddit/tifu :P | 06:25 |
| fancyfetus | i figured I'll just delete the partition to remove ubuntu | 06:25 |
| icloud | can someone help me? i rooted my phone 4.4.2 and can browse / with root explorer, but how do i mount my phone on my computer so i can copy some file off /system..thanks | 06:25 |
| fancyfetus | now I can't boot at all and get stuck in grub rescue! | 06:26 |
| icloud | i enabled usb debug and is connecting as mtp | 06:26 |
| xangua | icloud: what ubuntu release are you using¿ | 06:26 |
| somsip | fancyfetus: so what do you want to boot into? What OS is on the other partition? | 06:27 |
| fancyfetus | somsip, I windows | 06:27 |
| fancyfetus | I'd like to get into windows so that I can reinstall ubuntu | 06:27 |
| somsip | fancyfetus: just install from the live DVD. I have no idea about recovering windows MBR | 06:28 |
| fancyfetus | somsip, I get a "Remove disks or other media. Press any ke to restart" | 06:28 |
| icloud | xangua, 14.04 | 06:28 |
| fancyfetus | then when I do it goes into grub rescue | 06:28 |
| Bobbo | fancyfetus: you can reinstall ubuntu from a live usb, which is really easy to create if you've got a flash drive or RWDVD to use. | 06:28 |
| somsip | fancyfetus: at one point in what process do you get that error? | 06:28 |
| fancyfetus | somsip, right after my bios splash screen | 06:29 |
| somsip | fancyfetus: so use a live DVD, like I and Bobbo have said | 06:29 |
| xangua | icloud: it should be mounted with no problems then, you could try airdroid as a temporal solution to transfers files | 06:29 |
| fancyfetus | somsip, right. I get a "Remove disks or other media" error when I use my live usb | 06:29 |
| fancyfetus | the problem could be my live usb | 06:29 |
| fancyfetus | so I'm recreating it now. | 06:29 |
| Bobbo | fancyfetus: Make sure your boot order is correct / you are booting from the USB device. | 06:30 |
| icloud | xangua, yeah it mounts, but i can only access the "user partition" (internal storage) | 06:31 |
| fancyfetus | Bobbo, I manually select to boot from usb and make sure it's the only usb plugged in | 06:31 |
| ezio | why is there no documenation about how to configure odbc that isn't 84 years old | 06:32 |
| Bobbo | fancyfetus: If it's newer (especially if it's got a Windows 8 sticker on it), turn off secure boot in the bios? | 06:32 |
| fancyfetus | Bobbo, it's an older windows 7 laptop | 06:32 |
| fancyfetus | haven't had problems booting from usb before | 06:32 |
| Bobbo | Maybe your flash drive went poopy then. | 06:33 |
| fancyfetus | could be a bad usb burn. we'll se | 06:33 |
| fancyfetus | That's what I'm thinking :P | 06:33 |
| juiced | icloud: you'll probably need to install adb and then enable usb debugging on your phone. you should be able to adb pull the files from /system after that | 06:33 |
| fancyfetus | I really want to reinstall ubuntu so I can play around with some more desktop environments | 06:33 |
| fancyfetus | gnome 3 just looked so good on my friends computer today | 06:34 |
| fancyfetus | I gotta get my fingers into it | 06:34 |
| icloud | juiced, ok i will probably just try that | 06:36 |
| icloud | i am not sure what 14.04 is using to mount android, mtpfs is apparently not installed | 06:36 |
| fancyfetus | uh oh | 06:37 |
| fancyfetus | still getting a remove disks or other media error when I try to boot | 06:37 |
| === Bolllok is now known as Cyboman | ||
| fancyfetus | can you update from ubuntu 12 to ubuntu 14 from inside ubuntu? | 06:38 |
| juiced | icloud: odd, but you are not really interested in the /sdcard anyway. it would pay to install android-tools-fastboot as well as android-tools-adb so you have the full suite for flashing etc. | 06:39 |
| fancyfetus | usbs are the bane of my laptop. Going to use a livecd of 13.10 to fix boot. | 06:40 |
| xangua | fancyfetus: you can update from 12.04 to 14.04 (LTS to LTS) | 06:41 |
| fancyfetus | xangua, can't update from 13.10 to 14.04? | 06:42 |
| xangua | fancyfetus: you can update from the previous to the right next after release, yes | 06:43 |
| fancyfetus | excellent, thank you :) | 06:43 |

| TJ- | abaddon: You said ".lnk" files, but do you mean Symbolic links in the file-system, or is '.lnk' some desktop environment file format? | 07:10 |
| geirha | abaddon: do not use the $[...] syntax in bash | 07:10 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | .lnk -> Link file | 07:12 |

| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: TJ- here is the desired output http://paste.ubuntu.com/8355924/ Keep in miond, the file is a byproduct of the script I am making. The script pulls the list of folders in desktop; then it does several if statements to match up to a specific format in the pastebin link | 07:12 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest26001 | ||
| abaddon | TJ-: yeah, the .lnk files are referenced by idesktop which then uses the settings within to draw icons on the desktop | 07:13 |
| geirha | no, that's not what your script does | 07:13 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | @abaddon and what variable you deserve to get through the script | 07:13 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | only pcmd | 07:14 |
| abaddon | geirha: it's not even close to being finished.... | 07:14 |
| TJ- | abaddon: So what output is expected from the dir-list script, I see two lines which need something slightly different on each? | 07:14 |
| fancyfetus | hey guys, I'm on my beloved ubuntu now | 07:15 |
| fancyfetus | 13.04 | 07:15 |
| fancyfetus | But I can't seem to update to 13.10.... | 07:15 |
| guite | fancyfetus: update to 14.04 :p | 07:15 |
| fancyfetus | guite, I can't seem to update to anything... | 07:16 |
| fancyfetus | sudo apt-get update returns a whole lot of errors | 07:16 |
| fancyfetus | and the software updater can't find a thing! | 07:16 |
| abaddon | TJ-: When I get to the if then parts of the script it'll choose between some settings to flesh out the icon.link file. The script needs to pull the name and icon extension to set particuler parameters to the icon.lnk file | 07:16 |
| guite | oh… “sudo do-release-upgrade” doesn’t work ? | 07:16 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | !pasteinit http://paste.ubuntu.com/8355942/ | 07:16 |

| guite | fancyfetus: oh ok, hmmmm… you should pastebin your errors and see if someone can help | 07:17 |
| rtwk | irc.freenode.net | 07:17 |

| geirha | _-Tom-Tom-_: Several bad practices in there | 07:17 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | hmm | 07:17 |
| abaddon | geirha: I phrased poorly, it'll be the files within the Desktop dir more specifically | 07:18 |
| fancyfetus | guite, I will as soon as the command is finished | 07:19 |
| fancyfetus | oh... it seemed as if it workd | 07:19 |

| guite | who is admin here ? | 07:20 |
| geirha | abaddon: and you want to add .lnk at the end of each filename? | 07:20 |
| === Serraphyn is now known as serraphyn_afk | ||
| abaddon | geirha: _-Tom-Tom-_ TJ- So the intent of the script is to go through, list out the files in the Desktop dir then split the names up into two variables which would then be passed down to an if then statement to select some predefined setting which will then get writtent to a icon.lnk file which manages the settings for desktop icons and it's launches of programs. | 07:22 |
| abaddon | geirha: in the end yes, it'll be like: steam.lnk ; ristretto.lnk ; spacefm.lnk; etc. All of which will have settings for drawing those icons to the desktop. | 07:23 |
| geirha | abaddon: so like this? for file in ~/Desktop/*; do printf '<%s> -> <%s>\n' "$file" "${file%.*}.lnk"; done | 07:24 |
| TJ- | abaddon: something like: "find ~/Desktop -maxdepth 1 -type f | sed -n 's,^.*/\(.*\)\(\..*\)$,\1 \2 , p' " | 07:26 |
| abaddon | geirha: mmmmmm, Well, that just seems to copy the file name and set's it to a .lnk extension. It's partially there but the name isn't important really. It could be icon1.lnk icon2.lnk, etc. The important part is the settings within the .lnk file. Ie, it's exacute parameters, it's official name when on the desktop, it's height, width, and xy positioning. | 07:27 |
| elewis | !social | 07:27 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | abaddon so make your own for loop | 07:28 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | now you have the variable $file you can use | 07:28 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | echo -e "xyz \nabc \ndef" and so on | 07:29 |
| abaddon | TJ-: XD So, I must admit something to you all... I really suck at scripting.... I can't really tell what your script is doing per-say.... I was trying to make a for loop or rather a while loop because the script had to read each line in the lists.txt file and split the names up to its variables. | 07:30 |
| mugenzebra | hi all, I connect my wireless mouse and it does not respond, I did lsusb before and after plugin the bluetooth adapter, and I saw no device removed, I am gussing the bluetooth adapter is dead, is that right? | 07:30 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | @abaddon: Where do you get your variables from? | 07:31 |
| elewis | Hello | 07:31 |
| geirha | abaddon: I recommend reading http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide for learning bash | 07:31 |
| TJ- | abaddon: It writes out "name ext" of each regular file in ~/Desktop/ | 07:31 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | like caption width and so on | 07:31 |
| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: Basically, the loop was going to set those variables then send it to the evential if then part of the script which would build the icon.lnk file. | 07:31 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | so you have always same width height x1 and y1 | 07:32 |
| abaddon | TJ-: I thought so, XD OK, while yes the name i important to a degree it's the setting that'll be the most important. | 07:33 |
| _-Tom-Tom-_ | caption command and pix is derived from filename? | 07:33 |
| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: Nope, those will be derived differently, XD | 07:33 |
| abaddon | I gave you part of the script that was/is going to be in the if then section. Byut the settings are present in that example | 07:34 |
| indn1234 | I installed Ubuntu, then win8 dual boot, restored grub. Now I want to format and delete my windows partition - will it delete/modify the GRUB? | 07:35 |

| Bobbo | indn1234: um; it shouldn't do. =/ | 07:37 |
| apinsv | indn1234: If you reload Win8 then it will | 07:38 |
| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: What I want to do right at the moment is get the extension and name seperated into two seperate variables. The name will be associated with the Caption part of the settings file. The extension will determin the Command to be used in the file. | 07:38 |
| indn1234 | Bobbo: apinsv : okay guys, so where is my GRUB installed at the moment? | 07:39 |
| juiced | indn1234: no it won't but you'll want to update the grub menu with your working distro. | 07:39 |

Then book will be associated with the Caption setting while .pdf will determin the command to be used to exec that fil.

| Matsy | Hey everyone! For some reason, my 14.04 installation has disabled SSH access. The service itself is running, but I am not able to connect to it, not even locally. Any ideas? All I get is 'connection refused' | 07:47 |
| apinsv | enable port 22 in ufw | 07:47 |
| Matsy | UFW is not even enabled | 07:47 |
| geirha | abaddon: why not use the default command for each type of file? e.g. by using xdg-open as the command to open all | 07:47 |
| Matsy | 'service ufw status -> ufw stop/waiting' | 07:48 |
| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: geirha I'm not following? | 07:48 |
| apinsv | try enabling it and allow ssh | 07:48 |
| geirha | abaddon: ''xdg-open file.pdf'' # will open the pdf file with the default program for pdf files. As if you double clicked it | 07:49 |
| Matsy | apinsv: No results. Still no access. | 07:49 |
| apinsv | check sudo gedit /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 07:49 |
| Matsy | Enabled SSH globally using 'ufw allow ssh' | 07:49 |
| Matsy | Did that, it's listening on port 22 | 07:50 |
| apinsv | Matsy:change PermitRootLogin no into PermitRootLogin yes. Finally restart ssh service. | 07:50 |
| abaddon | _-Tom-Tom-_: mmmmmm, That could work.... it'd save me from having to split it. I'd then only need to pull it's respective name. Whih would save me a sed command,lol | 07:52 |
| abaddon | XD | 07:52 |

| Matsy | juiced: Did that. Still connection refused | 07:54 |
| Matsy | I am assuming it is something in the config file | 07:54 |
| Matsy | But I don't know what | 07:54 |
| apinsv | Matsy: Are you using it in a virtual box' | 07:54 |
| Matsy | apinsv: The machine is installed on a large vSphere cluster | 07:55 |
| Matsy | So, a dedicated VM for this Ubuntu box | 07:55 |
| juiced | Matsy: also check what address it's listening on. if you alter the listening address it becomes a whitelist of only those addresses. | 07:55 |

| Matsy | juiced, No, I never mess with it | 07:58 |
| geirha | abaddon: then changing the default application for opening the given file-type may be an idea. You only have to do it once for each type | 07:58 |
| Matsy | It seems pretty great out of the box | 07:58 |
| juiced | Matsy: weird. yeah, but you may want to change hte listening interface to just localhost & your lan address, for instance. to block outside connections. | 08:00 |
| geirha | abaddon: just right-click a file, select "Properties", go to "Open with" tab, change the default application for that file type. | 08:00 |
| Matsy | juiced: I do need external access, though | 08:00 |
| geirha | abaddon: after that, xdg-open will use that application for those types of files | 08:00 |
| Matsy | Every VM has its own public IP address for that reason | 08:01 |
| abaddon | geirha: yeah...It'd be faster if there were a settings file I could edit,lol. There are waaaaay too many file types for me to want to rclick 'em all and change their settings. | 08:02 |
| abaddon | geirha: I'll live if not...but...it'd nice | 08:02 |

| viktor89 | Hi everyone. I was really hoping somebody could help me figure out what I am doing wrong here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/524599/kernel-initd-boot-settings . I feel i am so close to having the dual boot working, but still far :( | 08:05 |
| geirha | TJ-: I recommend not using uppercase variable names | 08:05 |
| TJ- | geirha: recommend away; everyone has their own style | 08:05 |
| beeny89 | hi people | 08:06 |
| geirha | TJ-: Environment variables and special shell variables are uppercase. By using uppercase variable names, you risk overriding those by accident. So it's not a matter of style. | 08:06 |
| abaddon | geirha: TJ- Thanks you two, this'll help =] | 08:06 |
| TJ- | geirha: I recommend always using upper case for variable names in shell code examples, so they stand out and can be easily parsed by novices | 08:06 |
| geirha | TJ-: Well, that's the opposite of what we advice in #bash | 08:07 |
| beeny89 | hi i am new to ubuntu and I'm presented beeny89 | 08:07 |
| TJ- | geirha: That's your prerogative | 08:08 |
| juiced | viktor89: are you sure that's the right kernel name? that's pretty old. | 08:08 |
| viktor89 | no, I am fairly sure it's the wrong | 08:08 |
| viktor89 | I just don't know what the right one for ubuntu 14.04 is :/ | 08:08 |
| TJ- | viktor89: GRUB is being told to set its 'root' file-system based on finding a particular file; if that file no longer exists, then it won't set its root | 08:09 |
| viktor89 | TJ- yes, that's how far I've gotten in my search for a solution. Just need to konw what I should set kernel at. | 08:10 |

| viktor89 | juiced maybe I should try to reinstall ubuntu. I think the issue is because I selected the wrong bootloader location upon installing ubuntu | 08:15 |
| viktor89 | should I set bootloader location to the same drive as windows7 is installed? | 08:16 |
| === gorelative is now known as Guest95227 | ||
| juiced | viktor89: what you may need to do is load up a live USB and mount sda2 to find which file it is. you could also chroot into it and then grub-mkconfig | 08:16 |
| juiced | viktor89: might be the easiest way, if it's a fresh install. | 08:16 |
| viktor89 | I haven't been able to boot into it so it is pretty clean | 08:16 |
| viktor89 | but could the issue be caused from a wrong bootloader location on installation? | 08:17 |
| viktor89 | I selected bootloader location to be the same as where I installed ubuntu | 08:17 |
| viktor89 | (my 2nd harddrive) | 08:17 |
| eeee | viktor89: then you have to set your bios to boot the second hdd | 08:17 |
| viktor89 | but I still want windows | 08:17 |
| juiced | viktor89: does the windows boot since changing the bootloader? | 08:18 |
| eeee | viktor89: then boot it, and grub-install on the 1st hdd | 08:18 |
| viktor89 | yes, windows works fine | 08:18 |
| eeee | ( i think that'd work ) | 08:18 |
| viktor89 | will grub install on my 1st hdd still allow windows booting? | 08:19 |
| juiced | eeee: he can't boot though. thats why i suggested a chroot into the install to run the reconfig | 08:19 |
| eeee | viktor89: i think grub should pick up windows, juiced can't he select it to boot from the bios? | 08:19 |
| viktor89 | I think I can boot into it via bios. The whole problem probably is that I have grub installed on the 2nd hdd and not the main hdd | 08:20 |
| juiced | eeee: he's got a working grub (even though it's on the 2nd hdd) | 08:20 |
| juiced | viktor89: the problem is something overwrote the correct entry for ubuntu when you were fixing it | 08:20 |
| viktor89 | there never was a correct entry I think | 08:20 |
| viktor89 | I used easybcd within windows to try and get a boot selection screen | 08:21 |
| viktor89 | I will remove neogrub from windows | 08:22 |
| minimec | viktor89: I would indeed switch the boot harddisk in the BIOS. What you did was not that stupid. You have probably two 'working' master boot sectors, one for windows only on the first harddrive, and one on the second harddrive with dual boot win/ubuntu | 08:22 |
| viktor89 | yes | 08:23 |
| viktor89 | is it correct that I should have selected my windows hdd for bootloader location when I installed ubuntu? | 08:23 |
| eeee | ^^^ if windows is there, then all you'd have to do is keep the second hdd selected as the boot device | 08:23 |
| viktor89 | I selected the 2nd hdd | 08:23 |
| juiced | viktor89: all you need is grub-mkconfig to rebuild the menu correctly. whether you chroot into your sda2 or reinstall from scratch | 08:23 |
| viktor89 | how would i chroot? | 08:24 |
| eeee | viktor89: what you effectively did is make a standalone installation + bootloader on the second hdd, | 08:24 |
| viktor89 | yes, eeee | 08:24 |
| eeee | viktor89: so it depends if you want a "portable" installation, then you did the correct thing | 08:24 |
| viktor89 | that's what I thought would work | 08:24 |
| TJ- | viktor89: You're currently editing GRUB's grub.cfg from Windows, is that correct? | 08:24 |
| workerbeetwo | How to change the default gateway savely without cutting oneself off this ssh connection? | 08:24 |
| viktor89 | Im not sure. I am using easyBCD to correct the boot screen from within windows | 08:24 |
| viktor89 | I don't know what that does | 08:25 |
| eeee | viktor89: i think it's the best, since if you remove the second hdd, you will still have windows, and if it's there you'll have both | 08:25 |
| viktor89 | exactly what I wanted | 08:25 |

| k1l | BQ: you can make a seperate partition for the user data stuff, which is the /home folder | 09:37 |
| BQ | k11: how about system and third party apps? | 09:38 |

Want my boot.log back! :D Does anybody know how to solve this? | 09:50 |

| k1l | BQ_: like i told: a comon setup is to have a seperate /home partition | 09:56 |
| minimec | BQ_: No. As stated above, you are free to partition your harddrive or even use multiple drives for one installation. User data is separated in /home. Apps are normally in /usr or /opt. System relevant apps in /sbin... | 09:56 |
| ratzes | why is it that I can install my wifi drivers from "try ubuntu", but not after I install? | 09:57 |

| touki | In fact the serv can ping an ip but not solve a hostname. | 10:03 |

| k1l | ratzes: transport via usb-pendrive etc | 10:04 |
| minimec | BQ: 15-20GB should be enough for '/', in case you have a seperate partition for /home. My way to install Ubuntu is two partitions. '/' and '/home'. I do not have a /swap anymore. I do either crete a swapfile or use zram swap. So I would have one partition with ~20GB for '/' inkluding a swapfile and the second partition for /home. I agree that system and apps are 'mixed' in '/', but I do not see a problem with that. | 10:05 |
| BQ | k11: 15GB is too small I think. I guess apt-get install will quickly put the / partition in full. | 10:05 |

| minimec | CodeGos6: THe problem is, that you need a /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the nvidia restricted driver. So when you switch to intel, the system cannot 'understand' /etc/X11/xorg.conf IMHO. you would have to 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg-nvidia.conf | 10:09 |

| k1l | BQ: you dont. | 10:11 |
| CodeGos6 | is it generaly fine to just move all files starting with xorg.conf from that directory? | 10:11 |
| Matsy | minimec, Can't you just use nvidia-xorg to configure the second card? | 10:12 |
| CodeGos6 | i dont have xorg.conf but rather xorg.conf~ and xorg.conf.backup,xorg.conf.failsafe,xorg.conf.nvidia-xconfig-original | 10:12 |
| k1l | BQ: /opt is for 3rd party stuff that will break your system and is put into /opt to not interfer with the system. things from the ubuntu repos is made to work with the system so no need for that. | 10:12 |

| SP33D | i got some files on desktop delete them via console console shows no files | 10:35 |
| SP33D | but X does show files on desktop and even in PCFMan | 10:35 |
| SP33D | whats going on there? | 10:36 |
| thecha | when i have a tar file what do i do to get to a working isntalled file on ubuntu 12 | 10:36 |
| Ben64 | thecha: what are you trying to install | 10:36 |
| thecha | latest version of gnash | 10:36 |
| BQ | minimec: suspend means power on ? | 10:36 |
| thecha | you know gnash? | 10:36 |
| Ben64 | !info gnash | 10:37 |
| ubottu | gnash (source: gnash): GNU Shockwave Flash (SWF) player. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.11~git20130903-3ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 188 kB, installed size 602 kB | 10:37 |
| Ben64 | that gnash? the one in the repositories that you don't need to mess with a tar? | 10:37 |
| minimec | BQ: I have always preferred 'suspend' to 'hibernate'. Suspend means 'suspend to RAM'. --> Laptop goes into low power sleep mode. | 10:37 |
| cfhowlett | bajin-lee__, you've got an ubuntu base installed. adding kylin *should* be sudo apt-get install ubuntukylin-desktop but ... no | 10:37 |
| EiriksUbuntu | yesterday, i turned on the bottom right hotspot for window changer... awesome | 10:37 |
| thecha | it is an alternative swf player like adobe flash player | 10:38 |
| cfhowlett | bajin-lee__, suggest you go to the ubuntukylin page and contact them for support. It's quite easy, but after 2 years in China .... I don't speak Chinese. | 10:38 |
| Ben64 | thecha: right, so do "sudo apt-get install gnash" | 10:38 |
| SP33D | Ben | 10:38 |
| SP33D | he should do update befor | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | SP33D | 10:39 |
| thecha | and this gets the lates version or the version that was there when ubuntu 12 came out? | 10:39 |
| SP33D | else that will proball fail because its universe | 10:39 |
| bajin-lee__ | cfhowlett, thanks | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | thecha: it gets the latest version in 12.04 | 10:39 |
| thecha | so not hte overall latest version? | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | !latest | thecha | 10:39 |
| ubottu | thecha: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 10:39 |
| BQ | minimec: so that is sleep mode which still consumes power. | 10:40 |
| thecha | ther eis a massive improbvemnt in the gnash | 10:40 |
| thecha | it was basicalyl only able to play low quality youtube videos | 10:40 |
| Ben64 | thecha: then you're on your own for installing it, but i'd recommend against it | 10:40 |
| thecha | i think the new one can now play everything | 10:40 |
| BQ | minimec: which means you don't have long break in use your laptop? | 10:40 |
| Ben64 | thecha: alternatively, use the actual flash player, or the pepper one | 10:40 |
| minimec | BQ: Exactly. | 10:40 |
| SP33D | thecha | 10:40 |
| SP33D | use vlc | 10:41 |
| thecha | yeah that is what i am doing | 10:41 |
| thecha | using the adobe | 10:41 |
| SP33D | vlc can play everything | 10:41 |
| thecha | but i want to be bale to use the newset | 10:41 |
| thecha | what harm coudl it do | 10:41 |
| Ben64 | a lot | 10:41 |
| cfhowlett | bajin-lee__, #ubuntukylin-devel is the channel | 10:41 |
| SP33D | it ycould referenz libs that arn't there | 10:41 |
| thecha | if my machine expldes i just uninstall | 10:42 |
| thecha | oh | 10:42 |
| thecha | couldnt i just get the dependencies? | 10:42 |
| minimec | BQ: Well my Lenovo x230 is not using much power in suspend mode. So I can leave it on suspend over the night and continue the next day. That laptop has a 9cell battery... | 10:42 |
| bajin-lee__ | cfhowlett, thanks | 10:42 |
| Ben64 | thecha: again, you're on your own if you wish to go down that path | 10:42 |
| thecha | wiat i am nt prepard to go down any pathes | 10:43 |
| SP33D | lol | 10:43 |
| Ben64 | you can't have it both ways | 10:43 |
| thecha | i guess | 10:43 |

| Horsemeds | After installing Ubuntu 14.04 on a laptop no wifi connections were detected. After suspending then waking the system wifi networks became visible and I was able to connect. On subsequent suspensions the connection stops and restarts again after waking. can anyone suggest a fix? | 10:45 |
| SP33D | i am not prepared ot go down any pathes lol | 10:45 |
| SP33D | Horsemeds try systemd | 10:46 |

| SP33D | don't you think? if his wifi works after suspend it musst be soemthing that gets evented after suspend but not on boto | 10:47 |

| student | hi | 10:49 |
| Horsemeds | kll and SP33D thanks - im very new to ubuntu so are their instructions on how to do both those things? | 10:49 |
| SP33D | there isn't? in 14.10 it works out of the box even with a upstart adapter so he can re use most of the upstart stuff | 10:49 |
| Vladimir | I can't get snmp to work on one of my machines | 10:50 |
| SP33D | Horsemeds no can't tell you a good way for that because k1l told systemd is not working in 14.04 | 10:50 |
| k1l | SP33D: so you are really trolling a new ubuntu users to use 14.10 and use systemd? stop that. | 10:50 |
| SP33D | k1l trolling? only because i tell the true thats trolling? | 10:50 |
| Vladimir | I run snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex on the first one and it gets a timeout: no respone from localhost, and on the other one it works :/ | 10:51 |
| Horsemeds | i think ill give that one a miss :) | 10:51 |
| Vladimir | I have the same snmp config | 10:51 |
| SP33D | hmmmm need to think about my world view probally it would be more good to never tell true things and point more to simply stay where they are :D | 10:51 |
| * cfhowlett thinks "No half-measures". | 10:52 | |
| minimec | Horsemeds: Do you have a Wifi hardware switch. Would see a similar effect using that one instead of 'suspend'? | 10:53 |
| BluesKaj | HI folks | 10:53 |
| Horsemeds | minimec no there is no physicial swith to turn wifi on or off | 10:55 |
| Horsemeds | *switch | 10:56 |
| hateball | Horsemeds: you can use the command "rfkill" | 10:56 |
| minimec | Horsemeds: Ok. And if you use the software sitch in the panel-wifi-menu. Someting like 'disable wifi' | 10:57 |
| Horsemeds | minimec they are greyed out when i start up- they are available after waking from suspend | 10:58 |
| minimec | Horsemeds: Ok. THX for that indication. So it looks like wifi is set 'off' on boot, and is set to 'on' because of the 'suspend-script' of ubuntu. I would boot the laptop again, and do 'rfkill list' in a terminal afterwards. Can you set wifi state in the BIOS? | 11:00 |
| Horsemeds | minimec no I cant make changes in bios | 11:01 |
| Vladimir | I use snmpwalk but nothing happens in the log and also I get Timeout: no response | 11:02 |
| minimec | Horsemeds: Ok. let's check yout wifi device. Try 'lspci | grep Network' in a terminal or just 'lspci' if the forst command gives no results. We want to know what wifi chip you are using. | 11:04 |
| Horsemeds | ok do i post the resluts in here? | 11:04 |

| Night_Fury | lets try this again | 11:53 |
| Night_Fury | HOW did you damage your driver? | 11:53 |
| lokke | i installed the "radeonhd" for my HD4890 but this is not sopprted anymore | 11:54 |
| zulgaban | i think he meant corrupted driver | 11:54 |
| Night_Fury | yea | 11:54 |
| Night_Fury | i caught that | 11:54 |
| Night_Fury | a | 11:54 |
| lokke | then i tryed to use the up to date open source one but this would not work fine on my displays | 11:54 |
| Night_Fury | can you not go back and use your open source driver? | 11:54 |
| Night_Fury | that ususally works for me | 11:54 |

| Night_Fury | try a default of 1024x768 first off | 11:56 |

| dau | hi, I have downloaded the ~500mb ubuntu server 14.04.1 iso, put it on an usb stick, booted with it but for some reason, I cannot do an offline installation. The installation wizard demands a repository mirror. Why is that? | 12:03 |
| Night_Fury | updates?,..do you have it turned on? | 12:04 |
| dau | I did not intentionally turn on anything. I just follow the setup instructions like determining the keyboard layout, setting locales and so on. | 12:04 |
| diverdude | ok i did sudo su, and when i do exit it just says "there are stopped jobs" what does that mean? How do i get out? | 12:05 |
| dau | and it guides me right to the repository configuration and doesn't let me go past it and does not seem to attempt taking anything from the usb stick | 12:05 |
| Night_Fury | im not sure of server side install but i have installed 14.04 without a connect. I would think maybe your asking for updates during install. | 12:05 |
| Night_Fury | just double check | 12:06 |
| Night_Fury | seems legit | 12:06 |
| dau | there is no such option | 12:06 |
| Night_Fury | what,...to download updates?,...in the standard desktop there is | 12:06 |
| Night_Fury | ive never done server | 12:07 |
| dau | me neither. and yes, the previous non-server installation worked fine | 12:07 |
| Night_Fury | dunno,..... | 12:08 |

| cfhowlett | mrvik, I don't know anything about hybrid. https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads | 12:56 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: when I go to "Additonal drivers" I can see two proprietory drivers 'fglrx' and 'fglrx-updates' but when I select any one of them and reboot my system freezes after boot and does not show icons or pointer so I have to go to command mode and purge fglrs* | 12:56 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: I know I have been battling this problem since last month earlier in my old laptop I dint have a dedicated graphics card and it worked like a charm seems graphics card is not a good thing to have for ubuntu, is there a way to use just my intel card and not the amd one as if it was not present at all? | 12:58 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, I believe the reason or the freeze is the default lower power gpu is the intel and higher load/power gpu is the radeon, hence when you boot the system your low power graphics isn't available and the system freezes | 12:58 |
| BluesKaj | as cfhowlett suggested install the intel gpu driver | 12:59 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: that makes sense, so is there a way to make make my intel card as default for both or radeon one default for both low and high? | 13:00 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, good question, I'm not sure ...the only thing to do is experiment IMO | 13:01 |
| BluesKaj | unless someone else has insight into this setup | 13:01 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: is it completely not possible to remove my amd graphics card or do some setting so it acts as if it is not there am really very annoyed by this and I really dont need this dedicated graphics card | 13:03 |
| cfhowlett | mrvik, I would guess there's a way to disable a particular card in the boot options, but IDK how. | 13:04 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, check your bios/uefi to see whether there's an option to use one gpu or the other exclusively | 13:05 |
| mrvik | cfhowlett: BluesKaj , what do you think disabling my dedicated card would solve the problem or not? Since in my old laptop with no dedicated graphics it worked very well | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, I reckon the higher power gpu wopuld be the way to go altho your battery life will probly suffer otherwise using a less capable gpu that saves power will restrict your graphics options | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | mrvik, all I've heard is that AMD support is extremely uncertain in linux, especially compared to nvidia. | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, especiially with hybrid graphics , at least there's bumblebee for intel/nvidia | 13:08 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: you mean to disable the intel one and use amd? | 13:09 |

| stef1a | i accidentally ctrl + Z'ed a process while it was starting up, and now it appears to be a zombie. i really need to kill it and restart it, but i can't become root. help? | 13:11 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, if possible, unless you're satisfied with fewer desktop effects etc and the chance of freezes under heavier loads | 13:11 |
| Ben64 | stef1a: type "fg 1" ? | 13:11 |
| stef1a | Ben64: that returns unicorn_rails -E production -c config/unicorn.rb, which is the command i want to run (and earlier killed) | 13:12 |
| stef1a | Ben64: oh hey! that did it! | 13:12 |
| Ben64 | stef1a: :) | 13:12 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: but isn't that what's happening when I use 'fglrx' from additional drivers? and it freezes | 13:13 |
| stef1a | Ben64: thanks so much :-) | 13:13 |
| Ben64 | stef1a: ctrl+z pauses processes, and "fg 1" brings it back to the foreground | 13:13 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, dunno if fglrx is the right driver. It might be the xserver-xorg-video-ati | 13:14 |
| ubuntuser13 | gtk+-3.0 not found. i am trying to compile a software. | 13:16 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: ok so suppose I disable the intel card and use any of these drivers and reboot the system, won't it still freeze because the default for low graphics will still be intel? or then the defalut will be automatically changed? | 13:17 |
| kostkon | ubuntuser13, sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev? | 13:17 |
| ubuntuser13 | kostkon: ok | 13:18 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, the default autmatically be changed unless there's a software program that monitors the loads and switches the gpus, which I suspect has to be modded or disabled | 13:20 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: since my system was going into 'low graphics mode' after installing ubuntu I updated the grub with 'nomodeset' does it have to do something? | 13:21 |
| BluesKaj | nomodeset should only be temporary until the proper drivers are installed for the system | 13:22 |
| ubuntuser13 | kostkon: when i use sudo apt-get install gtk+-3.0, 13mb archives needed,but it uses 223mb internet still not installed. | 13:22 |
| urn | is there any way to force a user to run a command like 'cd upload' when they login to ftp? | 13:22 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: it will automatically be managed then? | 13:22 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, no you'll have to change it in grub | 13:26 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, remove it from the "quiet splash" line | 13:26 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, not until you installed the graphics driver though | 13:27 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: just read this http://askubuntu.com/questions/207175/what-does-nomodeset-do does the accepted answer mean otherwise? | 13:27 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: ok so am going with the following steps then, first install amd graphics card and then delete the 'nomodeset' from grub without rebooting and then reboot, is that it? | 13:30 |

| Ryan_ | ??? | 13:30 |
| Ryan_ | http://i.imgur.com/RbVVddE.png | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, yes, but check your bios first to set the graphics to amd exclusively | 13:30 |
| geirha | Ryan_: order by cpu% | 13:31 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, if possible | 13:31 |
| Ryan_ | geirha, its a fresh install with just mysql, apache and php | 13:31 |
| Ryan_ | i order by CPU and thers nothing | 13:31 |
| Ryan_ | http://i.imgur.com/c8gJsCd.png | 13:32 |
| geirha | Ryan_: Then my first suspect would be whatever php application you have running; possibly doing something very inefficient | 13:32 |
| mrvik | BluesKaj: and if I disable amd graphics card then I wont have to do anything else right? | 13:32 |
| Ryan_ | no, there are no PHP applications running | 13:32 |
| geirha | oh, then that is indeed odd | 13:33 |
| BluesKaj | mrvik, don't disable the amd/ati card if you plan on higher level grpahics | 13:35 |
| geirha | Ryan_: nothing using mysql either? | 13:36 |
| Ryan_ | no, i just installed it | 13:36 |
| Ryan_ | nothing is running on it | 13:36 |

| leeyaa | geirha: how ? i tried following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Edgy | 13:59 |
| k1l | 6.10 is long way overdue and it will be way faster and with less issues if you go for a reinstall. _but_ if you really want to go the upgrade way you need to use the old-releases sources | 13:59 |
| geirha | leeyaa: You have to upgrade Edgy -> Feisty -> Gutsy -> Hardy LTS -> Lucid LTS -> Precise LTS | 13:59 |

| fancyfetus | is there any way for me to use gnome as a desktop environment? | 14:14 |
| Whitor | k1l, you get the gold star. What you suggested looks like it took care of the issue, I can now login to the system under my normal account. Things went flaky when the battery dies while the system was in a sleep state. There are still some issues... The Nvidia optimus no longer works... the system hangs at the UBUNTU..... purple start up screen. Any ideas on this? anyone? | 14:14 |
| fancyfetus | or do I have to install ubuntu gnome? | 14:14 |
| cfhowlett | fancyfetus, you can add gnome to ubuntu but it's almost certainly better integrated in ubuntu-gnome | 14:15 |
| k1l | fancyfetus: you mean gnome-shell (aka gnome3)? | 14:15 |
| fancyfetus | k1l, yeah | 14:15 |
| headcold | Can I get some help solving a problem with my screen freezing? It randomly freezes everynow and then, sound works and background processes keep working but the screen just doesn't update. I can refresh the screen by doing cntrl+alt+f1,cntrl+alt+f7, it seems to track that the mouse moves whilst the screen is frozen | 14:15 |
| fancyfetus | cfhowlett, I'm tying to "taste" test different desktop environments right now | 14:16 |
| k1l | fancyfetus: you can install "gnome-shell" on a regular ubuntu. but on a gnome-ubuntu the gnome-shell is more vanilla | 14:16 |
| leeyaa | fancyfetus: try e17 | 14:16 |
| fancyfetus | maybe if I really like gnome, I'll switch to ubuntu gnome | 14:16 |
| fancyfetus | leeyaa, e17? | 14:16 |
| AlonzoTG | I sometimes get that issue when my video card is having problems, | 14:16 |
| gogh | headcold: What graphics card and desktop environment? | 14:16 |
| AlonzoTG | in my case, there was a faulty connection on the PCI-e slot. | 14:16 |
| cfhowlett | fancyfetus, understood. fun, too. but you might wish to consider doing so in a virtualbox to absolutely protect your main system. | 14:16 |
| k1l | fancyfetus: if you want something like the "old gnome2" look see xubuntu or even lubuntu desktops | 14:16 |
| fancyfetus | k1l, going for gnome 3 for sure. That thing is very sexy :) | 14:17 |
| cfhowlett | fancyfetus, or download ubuntu-gnome, make a usb and run it that way for a test | 14:17 |
| leeyaa | fancyfetus: yes | 14:17 |
| leeyaa | i used it in the past, very pretty and lightweight | 14:17 |
| fancyfetus | cfhowlett, good advice, thank you :) | 14:17 |

| fancyfetus | I'll add that to the taste test | 14:20 |
| fancyfetus | this is a new installation of ubuntu | 14:21 |
| fancyfetus | so I'm not worried about messing anything up | 14:21 |
| fancyfetus | I'm trying to migrate over to linux for dev purposes | 14:21 |
| gogh | headcold: Maybe it's a problem with the version of the driver you have installed. If you're using the proprietary nvidia driver, you can try a different version or try nouveau. If you're using nouveau, you can try installing the proprietary nvidia driver | 14:21 |
| fancyfetus | I tihnk the only thing stopping me is that I like Microsoft Word infinitely better than i like Libre or Open office... | 14:21 |
| leeyaa | fancyfetus: you can always use a VM for ms word or even wine | 14:22 |
| leeyaa | i used to keep a windows VM at virtualbox | 14:22 |
| gogh | fancyfetus: You can install windows in a vm.. | 14:22 |
| leeyaa | but now i just switched to Mac OS | 14:22 |
| fancyfetus | I heard that word on wine sucks | 14:22 |
| fancyfetus | I'm willing to try vm, though | 14:22 |
| leeyaa | fancyfetus: word in general sucks, just use google docs and other cloud platforms | 14:23 |
| leeyaa | microsoft are terrible anyway | 14:23 |
| gogh | yes that's better | 14:23 |
| gogh | fancyfetus: abiword isn't too terrible these days either it seems | 14:23 |
| fancyfetus | I haven't seen anything else that can match Word's feature set. | 14:23 |
| fancyfetus | For equation writing outside of latex. | 14:24 |
| gogh | fancyfetus: well if you want the complete set, just use a vm | 14:24 |
| leeyaa | fancyfetus: google docs can do pretty much anything word can | 14:24 |

| MontgomeryBurns | k1l: how do i do that? and also, how do i start the login manager? startx? | 14:26 |

| ubottu | MontgomeryBurns: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 14:26 |
| MontgomeryBurns | thanks | 14:26 |

| MontgomeryBurns | how can i see how much battery power i have left from the a terminal? | 14:31 |
| sivarjun | actually laptop is connected to wifi as well | 14:31 |
| headcold | gogh: I have a couple PPA's installed but I don't think any of them effect the xserver, it did start after I installed the proprietary drivers, which I did because I had read (no idea where now) that the proprietary would get better performance the default drivers | 14:32 |
| sivarjun | prob is wifi service i need tologn and can only use account on one devce | 14:32 |
| gogh | sivarjun: Then you'll probably need another wifi card | 14:32 |

| gogh | sivarjun: If it does work, the broadcast channel should be on the same channel as the AP it's connected to | 14:35 |
| gogh | sivarjun: The other way is manually setting up dhcp server and using something like hostapd | 14:36 |

| matty1234 | Hello! :) | 14:51 |
| matty1234 | Can anyone please tell me how I can force install an older version of a package via aptitude? I am trying to instal openjdk-6-jdk, but that is not available in aptitude as only the version 7 is available. | 14:52 |
| popey | matty1234: what version of ubuntu? | 14:53 |
| matty1234 | 14 LTS | 14:53 |
| popey | openjdk-6-jdk is available from the archive. | 14:54 |
| popey | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=openjdk-6-jdk | 14:54 |
| popey | (out of interest why do you want 6 and not 7?) | 14:54 |
| matty1234 | Some crazy project. We need to test an application using 5, 6, and 7. Hence I need to deploy 3 linodes each with those versions respectively. | 14:55 |
| matty1234 | Could you please tell me how I may install these versions from the archive? I've never ran across a task like this before and hence kind of in the dark. Google hasn't been much help either. | 14:55 |
| popey | ahhh | 14:55 |

| * rww takes a look | 15:27 | |
| LoRez | rww: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386/Packages has anyway. I guess apt isn't looking for .gz or .bz2 for some reason? | 15:28 |

| rww | LoRez: https://web.archive.org/web/20130317115517/http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/universe/binary-i386 , so I don't think it's ever been there :\ | 15:30 |
| Hawkerz | so, I am running 14.04 + Unity + byobu. Recently, I've discovered that byobu is no longer recognized by the WM as an independent thing that should have its own group (preferably under its own launcher); now anytime I use the byobu launcher it kicks over into a gnome-terminal group. It's super irritating, so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated | 15:30 |

| LoRez | rww: weird. I wonder why all 200+ machines started complaining the other day. | 15:30 |

| LoRez | SonikkuAmerica: thanks for the attempt at assistance, but that doesn't actually address the issue at all | 15:31 |

| rww | LoRez: which error message is it giving? just a 404? | 15:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | LoRez: (And hopefully your 64-bit machines read amd64, not i386) | 15:32 |
| LoRez | rww: 503 actually. I'm wondering if there's a proxy doing weird things in between. | 15:32 |
| LoRez | rww: I guess apt gives up if it gets a 5xx error instead of looking for the compressed ones | 15:32 |
| rww | LoRez: I'd try a different mirror on one of the machines and see if that helps. If not, I'd guess it's a proxy indeed. | 15:33 |

| Ampelbein | narbeh: I don't know enough about apache, I'm using nginx. Let me look up the docs. | 15:41 |
| narbeh | para000: you should install apache | 15:42 |
| narbeh | para000: and then PHP5 package | 15:42 |
| narbeh | para000: it will run php files | 15:42 |
| para000 | narbeh: that what i did | 15:42 |
| para000 | can i give a example? | 15:42 |
| para000 | 1 sec | 15:42 |
| narbeh | para000: ok | 15:42 |
| Ampelbein | narbeh: It looks like you could achieve that by adding a new virtualhost, with <VirtualHost IPADDRESS:80> and configure it's document root to a suitable (empty) directory. | 15:43 |
| para000 | narbeh: so i have this simple php code http://apaste.info/2oR that is working on my WAMP localhost but not on my VPS server | 15:43 |
| narbeh | Ampelbein: Good idea. let me try it | 15:44 |
| para000 | that has PHP5 and apache2 | 15:44 |
| narbeh | para000: I don't know PHP coding, but if you have installed apache and php5, it should work. | 15:45 |
| para000 | that the thing not all code working on the VPS ... but some PHP is working ... so i think i install miss something on the VPS instalation | 15:45 |

| fuorviatos | hello | 16:26 |
| narbeh | DryEagle: what kind of alias? in shell? | 16:26 |
| DryEagle | for bash | 16:26 |
| DryEagle | basically i use livestreamer quite a lot | 16:26 |
| narbeh | DryEagle: edit .bashrc | 16:27 |
| DryEagle | and the syntax for it is "livestreamer web.site/stream quality" for example "livestreamer twitch.tv/roomonfire high" | 16:27 |
| jnxd | felon: off the top of my head, use nautilus start terminal and then pwd, though that requires you to install it | 16:27 |
| eeee | quantibility: is the drive mounted? | 16:27 |
| DryEagle | so i want to set up an alias like "alias z='livestreamer twitch.tv/'" | 16:27 |

| narbeh | it should work | 16:28 |

| DryEagle | er | 16:29 |
| DryEagle | basically it puts a space in the url | 16:29 |
| DryEagle | since that's where the alias ends | 16:29 |
| DryEagle | and i want to know if i can make it remove that space | 16:29 |
| narbeh | DryEagle: remove the space | 16:30 |
| DryEagle | but then if i type zroomonfire into bash that's not recognised | 16:30 |
| DryEagle | so in bash i have to have a space after the z | 16:30 |
| DryEagle | there isn't one in the alias | 16:30 |
| DryEagle | but it inserts that space | 16:30 |
| quantibility | eeee: it vanishes after its decrypted, but the "disks" Application states two other partions that have the infor but i can't figure out how to mounth those | 16:31 |

| BQ | how do i install a deb file? | 17:15 |
| arduinoob | So where is the Ubuntu desktop installer that doesn't boot to a desktop first? | 17:16 |
| genii | BQ: sudo dpkg -i filename ( if in same directory as the deb file ) Although it begs the question of why you need to manually be installing it. | 17:17 |
| SchrodingersScat | BQ: dpkg -i packagename.tdeb | 17:17 |
| genii | !minimal | 17:18 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.

| smart_developer | ? | 18:27 |
| smart_developer | Is the 00 correct? | 18:27 |
| expunge | smart_developer: that's for telling whatever is looking at the files in rsyslog.d that it is the highest priority | 18:29 |
| expunge | "to be run first", etc. | 18:29 |
| geirha | smart_developer: name shouldn't matter much. Just has to end with .conf | 18:29 |
| === cmdshftn_ is now known as cmdshftn | ||
| smart_developer | Okay, but 00 seems like it would be an "edge case" | 18:29 |
| smart_developer | meaning that, only special files should have that high of a priority. | 18:29 |
| expunge | =) | 18:30 |
| smart_developer | And that might lead to the possibility of this conf file not even being looked at / run. | 18:30 |
| expunge | if there are no other files in there, it won't matter | 18:30 |
| smart_developer | What if someone else comes in and adds " 00-their-file.conf " | 18:30 |
| smart_developer | and my 00-my-file.conf is still there? | 18:30 |
| expunge | what if someone else comes in and dd's over your whole FS | 18:30 |
| geirha | smart_developer: the files get read in sorted order. 00-something.conf means it gets read before 20-ufw.conf for example | 18:30 |
| geirha | (since 00 sorts before 20) | 18:31 |
| expunge | yay repetition... | 18:31 |

| BlakeRG | Bashing-om: this is on 12.04 LTS, i am just going to give version 14 a try | 19:38 |
| cmanns | It's often CPU bound, and graphics is slow | 19:39 |
| rberg_ | jee1mr: maybe try it with out the partition number | 19:39 |
| jee1mr | rberg_: But it didn't fix anything | 19:39 |
| cmanns | yeah dont use partition # | 19:39 |
| Bashing-om | BlakeRG: Yeah, can try that .. interesting though that this fault exists.. maybe a bug-report is in order here ??? | 19:39 |

| tinmanpiano | normally you run gnome-session to do it | 20:08 |

| tinmanpiano | I assume this has something to do with unity? | 20:08 |

| EriC^^ | tinmanpiano: which desktop did you install? | 20:08 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: BlakeRG Yeah corrpted file(s) was my 1st thought, But I have no idea as to the why on fresh install this corruption could occur . | 20:08 |
| tinmanpiano | @EriC ubuntu-desktop | 20:09 |
| BlakeRG | a fresh install of 14.x works, but be a bug in just that version | 20:09 |
| EriC^^ | Bashing-om: no idea about the issue, but maybe the .iso was damaged? | 20:09 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: captive portals are famous for it, I've seen it in corporate environments where an open wifi network is joined but it requires HTTP based authentication first, but doesn't return 404 errors, only a 302 | 20:10 |
| tinmanpiano | Eric^^: I ran sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 20:10 |
| Bashing-om | EriC^^: Could be, but BlakeRG has re-done from scratch - I would think he did verify (??) - assumming can make an "ass out of U and me " ! . | 20:11 |
| === sixwheeledbeast1 is now known as sixwheeledbeast | ||
| TJ- | BlakeRG: If it was temporary the most likely cause is the US mirror archive was being updated, with the checksum file not caught up with the Package/Release files. | 20:11 |
| genii | tinmanpiano: That should also have installed the login manager which is what you'd normally login from and not by running gnome-session or such on cli. You might try sudo service lightdm start | 20:11 |
| BlakeRG | not sure this matters but i downloaded the ISO via torrent, which i think has some checksumming in it | 20:11 |
| TJ- | BlakeRG: The ISO wouldn't cause this, it happens due to the Package files being downloaded from the archive server not matching the checksum file on the same server | 20:12 |
| cmanns | Whats a good program to connect to openvpn on ubuntu | 20:13 |
| Fuchs | cmanns: networkmanager has a plugin | 20:13 |

| Fuchs | which integrates nicely into networkmanager, which makes it very simple | 20:13 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: OK, Makes sense that the " us.archive.ubuntu.com" mirror site updating could cause this.. so just try again in a bit ? | 20:15 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: Sometimes the "partial/" directory needs cleaning out but usually the problem 'goes away' once the archive is fully synced | 20:16 |

| gorelative_1 | im trying to setup puppet to manage sources.list.. should i have it replace the contents of sources.list with my own mirror URLs | 20:39 |
| gorelative_1 | or should i create new ones in sources.list.d | 20:39 |
| gorelative_1 | basically which takes precedence | 20:39 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Yeah ! Now that you have mentioned it, it do ring a bell ! Regret that I did not make the connection, and you are some kind of good ! to find it this quick ! | 20:39 |
| tinkerbot | gorelative_1: sources.list | 20:40 |
| gorelative_1 | okay hmm i think puppet/apt only changes sources.list.d | 20:40 |
| gorelative_1 | hmph | 20:40 |
| tinkerbot | .d is the directory containing source files- you want to modify the *.list file(s) within | 20:42 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: I had already worked on that bug some weeks ago; this just jogged my memory :) | 20:42 |
| gorelative_1 | tinkerbot right, but what im asking is /etc/apt/sources.list is a file. RIght now im changing that list to be my mirror URL instead of archive.ubuntu.com for example.. | 20:43 |
| gorelative_1 | should i instead be creating a file under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/somefile.list | 20:43 |
| gorelative_1 | and adding those mirror URLs in there instead | 20:43 |
| tinkerbot | gorelative_1: you could, sure. | 20:44 |
| tinkerbot | meshing them in one file vs multiple is purely for organization | 20:44 |
| * m3n3chm0 re all | 20:44 | |
| gorelative_1 | so the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* take precedence over /etc/apt/sources.list? | 20:44 |
| TJ- | gorelative_1: All entries in "/etc/apt/sources.list" and "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list" are combined (by run-parts) - there is no precedence | 20:44 |

| TJ- | gorelative_1: For your purposes I'd delete "/etc/apt/sources.list" and put your own in the sources.list.d/ directory | 20:45 |
| TJ- | gorelative_1: The point of packages using run-parts is that we can add user or custom settings without modifying the package-installed main file - so package upgrades can alter their main config files without asking the sys-admin to deal with config file diffs | 20:46 |
| gorelative_1 | makes complete sense | 20:46 |
| TJ- | gorelative_1: Admittedly, apt is unique in that regard in that the initial sources.list is generated, not shipped in the package, but best to stick to the correct procedure for run-parts ;) | 20:47 |

| TJ- | cmanns__: check sshd is listening on the vpn interface (or all), then check firewall rules, and of course ensure routing is working in both directions, including forwarding | 20:54 |
| cmanns__ | _ has userhost ~cmanns@dns01.xenserv.net | 20:54 |
| cmanns__ | I'm on right now lol vpn works | 20:54 |
| cmanns__ | All configure options on network manager seem correct | 20:55 |
| cmanns__ | Does ubuntu require anys pecific to get vpn working? | 20:55 |
| cmanns__ | Also how do I disable iptables? | 20:55 |
| === matjaz is now known as Guest58293 | ||
| cmanns__ | I set openvpn to addresses only and manualy specified googles dns | 20:56 |
| cmanns__ | that might be it | 20:56 |
| cmanns__ | maybe it was trying to use his internal lans dns | 20:56 |
| tinkerbot | cmanns__: are you trying to SSH into the machine you're VPN'ed into? | 20:57 |
| cmanns__ | Yeah but the vpn doesnt work yet | 20:57 |
| cmanns__ | no internet | 20:58 |
| tinkerbot | ahh. ew. | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | ? | 20:58 |
| tinkerbot | things not working. ew. | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | Also any way to completely remove ubuntu firewall? | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | ah yeah | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | This is a great vpn too I get over 60mbps on it, I play counter strike competitive through it lol | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1660520&page=2 | 20:58 |
| cmanns__ | Seems firewall is culprit | 20:58 |
| tinkerbot | by firewall you mean iptables? you can flush them if there's nothing important. although if it's public-facing, I'd be careful. | 20:58 |
| tinkerbot | flush the rules, rather | 20:59 |

| Munchedness | Hey guys. I've got an issue with an NAS unit; it's onboard BCM5704 NIC's are using tg3, and for some reason they are "unclaimed". This is Ubuntu 14.04 server, so there's no GUI to work with. I've tried a few things already, just running out of ideas | 21:00 |
| TJ- | For egress, no netfilter rules are usually required if OUTPUT chain policy is ACCEPT | 21:00 |
| tinkerbot | if all else fails, openvpnAS https://openvpn.net/index.php/access-server/overview.html is really easy to setup, and requires no modification aside from installing the package. | 21:00 |
| cmanns__ | that would require me to re-configure my VPN that my businesses uses tinkerbot | 21:00 |
| cmanns__ | and we'd have to pay | 21:01 |
| cmanns__ | The issue is the routing | 21:01 |
| cmanns__ | man this HDD is so slow lol | 21:01 |
| cmanns__ | I went to enable DMA and it's not possible | 21:01 |
| TJ- | Munchedness: "modinfo tg3 | grep firmware" ... check the firware files are installed (/lib/firmware/ - package linux-image-`uname -r`) | 21:02 |
| cmanns__ | yep vpn has no routing | 21:03 |
| cmanns__ | Even if I tell it to only use its self for resources | 21:03 |
| Munchedness | TJ- I have some results. | 21:03 |
| TJ- | Munchedness: Have you also checked "/var/log/kern.log" for indications as to why the tg3 module didn't get loaded automatically? | 21:04 |
| cmanns__ | The vpn has routes | 21:06 |
| Munchedness | TJ- No, but I'm looking now. When I would to sudo modprobe tg3, no errors were generated | 21:06 |
| smart_developer | What are some techniques/methods you could do to optimize the kernel for your applications? | 21:06 |
| Munchedness | but, it is not binding to eth0 | 21:06 |
| daum | guy guys anyone else noticing fonts are really bad in chromium 37 vs earlier ones? | 21:07 |
| Munchedness | In order to obtain some backports and stuff, I stuck another PCI NIC in the system;; but I want to pull that and get these onboards working again so I can re-rack this thing | 21:07 |
| smart_developer | I'm sure it depends on the nature of the applications, but let's say that you have a set of different types of applications. | 21:07 |
| smart_developer | How do you start / what techniques do you use? | 21:07 |
| cmanns__ | but I can't ping openvpn gateway | 21:07 |
| TJ- | cmanns__: From the client, are you ping-ing to the VPN end-point, the VPN sub-net gateway, or the VPN server's host IP? | 21:09 |
| cmanns__ | The vpn gateway IP that I can use to ssh to the vpn server | 21:10 |
| cmanns__ | I can't ping other clients ont eh vpn either and this works fine cept on this new lubuntu install | 21:10 |
| CarlFK | double click an image, it opens with "The GNOME image viewer. 3.10.2" according to the ^p print dialog, the image is 2"x3" - how do I scale it up to 8x11? | 21:11 |
| CarlFK | (rather not have to use gimp or something.. was hoping to hit "fit to page, print." | 21:11 |
| SchrodingersScat | not sure if fit to page would change the print.. i was thinking imagemagick or gimp yeah | 21:12 |
| SchrodingersScat | something like gimp could adjust it on the page without saving, afaik, so there's that | 21:12 |
| CarlFK | SchrodingersScat: the print dialog lets me scale it smaller. seems odd that it won't go larger than 100% | 21:13 |
| TJ- | cmanns__: " I set openvpn to addresses only" - the client needs to accept routing table updates from the server; that setting might discard them along with DHCP options - long time since I tested that, though | 21:13 |
| cmanns__ | I have done the other vpn option too | 21:14 |
| cmanns__ | there is routes | 21:14 |

| SchrodingersScat | oh | 21:15 |
| Munchedness | iv'e followed that entire guide- this adapter uses tg3 not bcm43 | 21:16 |
| SchrodingersScat | yeah, ethernet, nvm | 21:16 |
| Munchedness | I think there is an issue with tg3- because the firmwares are present, yet the driver does not bing to eth0 | 21:16 |
| cmanns__ | enabling compression fixed the openvpn guys | 21:16 |
| cmanns__ | :) | 21:16 |
| Munchedness | nice cmanns | 21:16 |

| cmanns__ | How do I open firewall fully? | 21:17 |

| cmanns__ | Any other ideas? | 21:18 |
| SchrodingersScat | what's on the port 22? | 21:18 |
| Munchedness | Go into your router, and try disabling the SPI firewall | 21:18 |

| flouric | quatrox yeah Ive done it before | 21:22 |
| Bashing-om | flouric: sudo service lightdm restart ; IF you are running unity . | 21:22 |
| quatrox | mahem1: to compress it, you can use bz2 or gzip | 21:23 |
| flouric | Bashing nah its mint17 | 21:23 |
| quatrox | Bashing-om: then he would need to log in again, no? | 21:23 |
| Bashing-om | quatrox: No, I expect that mint also uses some DM, But I do not know what Mint uses .. best ask in #mint . | 21:24 |

| Rhapsody | thurstylark: Thanks | 21:49 |
| HelpDave | Tex_Nick can i install lubuntu from a jump drive? | 21:49 |
| jhutchins | Rhapsody: One of the cool things about linux is you can try it and see, all it costs you is time. | 21:49 |
| Rhapsody | Fair enough. | 21:49 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: if it tells you anything, SteamOS is based on Ubuntu. | 21:49 |
| thurstylark | So, yeah. | 21:50 |
| jhutchins | Rhapsody: Since we don't know what hardware you have, or what games you want to play, it's hard for us to speculate how well it'll work. | 21:50 |
| thurstylark | Take that as you will. | 21:50 |
| Rhapsody | thurstylark: I know it is, but not all harware plays well with it. | 21:50 |
| Rhapsody | For example, older ATI cards perform terribly on Linux but fine on Windows | 21:50 |

| matjaz_ | that's probably your best option | 21:52 |
| Rhapsody | ubottu: Trick is, this is a seperate SSD. | 21:52 |
| quatrox | samthewildone: but it is slow | 21:52 |
| Rhapsody | It has no other OS on it. | 21:52 |
| Rhapsody | But I do have data on it and I want to keep it, so let's simplify it. | 21:52 |
| Rhapsody | Can I avoid this by making a new partition right now? | 21:52 |
| matjaz_ | Rhapsody: oh, yea, you should then just do another partition | 21:52 |

| RPG-Master_on_ma | OK, gonna switch over to the desktop and fiddle with it some more, brb. | 22:15 |
| Rhapsody | Okay, now that I have the new partition, what should I install Ubuntu to it with? | 22:15 |
| Rhapsody | Unetbootin? | 22:15 |
| Ben64 | Rhapsody: install ubuntu to what | 22:15 |
| Rhapsody | the partition | 22:15 |
| Ben64 | what partition | 22:15 |
| Rhapsody | The partition I just made :l | 22:16 |
| Ben64 | jesus | 22:16 |
| Ben64 | get more specific | 22:16 |
| Rhapsody | I literally stated this above Ben64 | 22:16 |
| Bashing-om | Rhapsody: Opinions differ, I prefer to have a liveDVD of the OS I install . I would burn to a DVD. and install from that liveDVD. | 22:16 |
| Rhapsody | Bashing-om just helped me make it | 22:16 |
| Rhapsody | Bashing-om: No burnable CDs around here. | 22:16 |
| Rhapsody | Will my method work? | 22:16 |
| Ben64 | is it a hard drive, is it a flash drive, where is it connected | 22:16 |
| Ben64 | give some information | 22:16 |
| Rhapsody | Ben64: Samsung 840 EVO connected via USB 2.0 and an eSATA cable | 22:17 |
| Ben64 | then you probably don't want to use unetbootin | 22:17 |
| Rhapsody | plugged in via an external enclosure | 22:17 |
| Rhapsody | Okay, then what do I want? | 22:17 |
| RPG-Master_on_ma | ARGH. I hit escape and got a log in prompt, but then before I could do anything, BAM. Blinking, unresponsive cursor on black. :/ | 22:17 |
| Ben64 | if you want to install ubuntu, run the installer | 22:17 |
| daftykins | Rhapsody: are you keeping Windows or replacing it? | 22:18 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: if you have a thumbdrive, point unetbootin at that, boot off of it, and install to your new partition. | 22:18 |
| Rhapsody | daftykins: Windows is on the internal SSD, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a partition I created on my external SSD | 22:18 |
| Rhapsody | I hate to inform you, thurstylark, but I have no USB lying around that I can find. | 22:19 |
| Rhapsody | I *had* one, but now I can't find it. | 22:19 |
| daftykins | Rhapsody: ah, that's going to get a bit messy. what about DVDs? can you write one? | 22:19 |
| quatrox | RPG-Master_on_ma: blinking cursor on a blank black screen? | 22:19 |
| thurstylark | daftykins: he said that he doesn't | 22:19 |
| RPG-Master_on_ma | quatrox: yup | 22:19 |
| Rhapsody | daftykins: No writeable CDs around, we haven't had them for ages. | 22:19 |
| Rhapsody | Not since like... 2007. | 22:19 |
| daftykins | Rhapsody: then you can't install. | 22:20 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: psh, and you want to play with linux. ;P | 22:20 |
| Bobbo | CDs still exist? ;D | 22:20 |
| Rhapsody | daftykins: Why won't http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows work? | 22:20 |
| Bobbo | <Rhapsody> I hate to inform you, thurstylark, but I have no USB lying around that I can find. | 22:20 |
| Ben64 | because you don't have a usb stick | 22:20 |
| daftykins | you just told us you don't have any USB flash drives | 22:20 |
| Bobbo | Wait | 22:20 |
| Bobbo | I'm confused. | 22:20 |
| mattxtn | If you had a flash drive (thumb drive) Rhapsody. | 22:20 |
| Rhapsody | I'm asking if I can use it to install Ubuntu directly to my SSD partition. | 22:21 |
| Bashing-om | Rhapsody: MANY many ways to install ubuntu : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Minimal_installations , take your pick. | 22:21 |
| Rhapsody | And why not, if it lets me select the partition to install it to | 22:21 |
| user1 | exit | 22:21 |
| Bobbo | Whoever needs a live usb: You /can/ use an SD card instead, | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | which had already been answered, you need to run the ubuntu installer to install ubuntu | 22:21 |
| Tex_Nick | Rhapsody: also something to consider ... if you're doing a clean install ... create a separate partition for home | 22:21 |
| thurstylark | Ben64: He gets that, he needs a WAY to run the installer | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | i really don't think he gets that | 22:21 |
| thurstylark | Ben64: Read your scrollback. | 22:22 |
| Ben64 | already did, you try | 22:22 |
| samthewildone | well | 22:22 |
| samthewildone | I've been farting all day. | 22:22 |
| samthewildone | opps .. off topic | 22:22 |
| Rhapsody | I've been asking this but none of you have answered it. Let me explain my situation. | 22:23 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: you could possibly create a small live-install partition on your target ssd. So it would be existing data, target partition, and install partition. Play the part of a thumb drive... | 22:23 |
| cmanns__ | Get a ISO | 22:24 |
| cmanns__ | boot ISO | 22:24 |
| Bobbo | Rhapsody: So yeah, if you've got an SD card, that might work. I /believe/ you can setup the live USB on a HDD partition and then install from there. | 22:24 |
| cmanns__ | Install to SSD | 22:24 |
| Rhapsody | thurstylark: That'll work. | 22:24 |
| Rhapsody | Approximate size I'd need? | 22:24 |
| cmanns__ | 4-8gb | 22:24 |
| Rhapsody | Fair enough | 22:24 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: yeah, 4-8GB will work. How much space do you have availible to play with on your target drive? | 22:24 |
| Rhapsody | thurstylark: 60 | 22:25 |
| Rhapsody | GB | 22:25 |
| cmanns__ | Man this ide drive is still slow | 22:25 |
| cmanns__ | I think I got DMA enabled | 22:25 |
| Rhapsody | So I can just use the instructions from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows and use it on the new 8GB partition I just made? | 22:26 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: Yeah, that will probably work for you. I'm not sure if you can reclaim the installer space, but even so, you can just delete a game and install another one | 22:26 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: Yup. That's about the sum of it | 22:26 |
| cmanns__ | you might need to use the entire flash drive | 22:26 |
| Rhapsody | thurstylark: It would be as easy as formatting and merging that partition after I'm done with it, wouldn't it? | 22:26 |
| cmanns__ | due to bootloader | 22:26 |
| Rhapsody | cmanns__: We'll see what happens, I suppose. | 22:27 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: depends on the partition type | 22:27 |
| thurstylark | Rhapsody: Yeah, factor in the bootloader, but it's pretty small. | 22:27 |
| thurstylark | bootloader doesn't make it's own partition, does it? | 22:28 |
| cmanns__ | Why does man db take so long | 22:28 |
| para000 | hi guys ... i got a php script on a linux server and my php code needs to crate a file but it can`t do i need to give it some permision or what? | 22:28 |
| expunge | cmanns__: hrmm? | 22:28 |
| expunge | para000: suexec? | 22:28 |
| cmanns__ | I assume its just slow due to slow IDE drive | 22:28 |
| expunge | para000: #httpd / #php | 22:28 |
| cmanns__ | your php/httpd needs permissions to the directory | 22:28 |
| * cmanns__ is web hosting provider | 22:29 | |
| para000 | cmanns__: do you know how do i do that ? i`m very new at this | 22:29 |
| cmanns__ | Give output of ps aux and ls -la of the directory in a pastebin | 22:29 |
| cmanns__ | !pastebin | 22:29 |

| arsalan | hey'll, I want take backup of my Ubuntu 14.04 and I don't have any external hard. I prefer backup on cloud or somewhere that could restore with terminal | 22:31 |
| cmanns__ | How much data? | 22:31 |
| cmanns__ | rsync your home dir somewhere pretty much | 22:31 |
| arsalan | not too much, 2 gig | 22:31 |
| expunge | arsalan: s/cloud/online/ | 22:31 |
| expunge | google drive starts at 15GB or something | 22:32 |
| expunge | dropbox does 2 | 22:32 |
| arsalan | let me test | 22:32 |
| cmanns__ | If you need place to rsync to I can give you location | 22:32 |
| cmanns__ | Phoenix, Arizona | 22:32 |
| expunge | you don't need to backup your OS files, though, Ubuntu OS files are mirrored all over | 22:32 |
| cmanns__ | Yeah just backup /home/*/ | 22:32 |
| thurstylark | I was thinking small vps or amazon aws. | 22:33 |
| cmanns__ | I can just setup a shell account in minutes | 22:33 |
| expunge | thurstylark: hrmm? | 22:33 |
| thurstylark | All you really need is something that can run an rsync daemon. | 22:34 |
| thurstylark | and enough space. | 22:34 |
| cmanns__ | yep | 22:34 |
| arsalan | hummm!! good advice! | 22:34 |
| expunge | all you really need is ssh access, and an rsync client | 22:34 |
| expunge | or you could use tar =P | 22:34 |
| thurstylark | yup | 22:34 |
| cmanns__ | Our basic web hositng package would give enough room for 4 2gb backups and enough left over for a website | 22:34 |
| quatrox | or use git annex | 22:34 |
| expunge | tar with -z for gzip is fast decent compression | 22:34 |
| thurstylark | later | 22:35 |
| cmanns__ | Our lowest package would accept 1- 2gb backup | 22:35 |
| expunge | cmanns__: or... he could get 15GB for free | 22:40 |
| cmanns__ | yep | 22:41 |
| expunge | =) | 22:41 |
| cmanns__ | However I was initially offering free was just pointing out some neat facts I discovered | 22:41 |
| expunge | where's your outfit, though? | 22:41 |
| cmanns__ | My outfit? | 22:41 |
| expunge | cmanns__: your hosting website | 22:42 |
| cmanns__ | expunge whois me :) | 22:44 |
| expunge | good domain | 22:44 |
| veryhappy | hey guys, how do i install kept back packages with apt-get? | 22:44 |
| cmanns__ | thanks | 22:44 |
| cmanns__ | We been around since 2008~ | 22:44 |
| cmanns__ | kept back packages veryhappy ? | 22:44 |
| EriC^^ | veryhappy: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 22:45 |
| k1l_ | veryhappy: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 22:45 |
| veryhappy | i actually did that but it gave me nothing | 22:45 |
| k1l_ | please show the output in a pastebin | 22:46 |
| veryhappy | ok | 22:46 |
| === grimeton_ is now known as grimeton | ||
| veryhappy | k1l_: can i combine 2 commands in one pastebin? | 22:47 |
| k1l_ | just copy and paste with the mouse? | 22:48 |
| veryhappy | i thought with pastebinit | 22:48 |
| k1l_ | !paste | veryhappy | 22:48 |
| ubottu | veryhappy: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 22:48 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: that's what i meant pastebinit | 22:48 |
| veryhappy | well but you don't seem to understand that i wanted to combine 2 apt-get update and dist-upgrade in one pastebin | 22:49 |
| veryhappy | whatever | 22:49 |
| EriC^^ | veryhappy: use (command1 && command2) | pastebinit | 22:49 |
| cmanns__ | thats fine | 22:49 |
| veryhappy | good | 22:49 |
| veryhappy | thanks | 22:49 |
| cmanns__ | pastebinit is neat | 22:49 |
| cmanns__ | man how many packages does a lubuntu dist upgrade do? | 22:49 |
| veryhappy | that's the way i had it | 22:49 |
| cmanns__ | been at an hour almost | 22:50 |
| k1l_ | pastebinit is just a tool. pastebin is a synonym for any paste service. so choose the way you like | 22:50 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: i just found it strange that you didn't get me first :D | 22:50 |
| cmanns__ | Anything liek zRAM you guys suggest? | 22:51 |
| cmanns__ | I got swappiness at 1, no swap being used. This IDE P4 Dell dimension 2400 is working better and better on lubuntu vs Win XP :D | 22:51 |
| veryhappy | so here it should be: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8361063/ | 22:52 |
| cmanns__ | Then theres nothing to update? | 22:53 |
| veryhappy | cmanns__: nothing | 22:53 |
| k1l_ | veryhappy: that is not all output. and its not any held back packages. | 22:53 |
| cmanns__ | So yeah lubuntu upgrade has been going for about 55 minutes | 22:53 |
| veryhappy | i thought you guys want this output of my update | 22:53 |
| veryhappy | hold on | 22:53 |
| k1l_ | <k1l_> veryhappy: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 22:54 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: i'm giving you now first the held back packages ok? | 22:54 |
| tinkerbot | veryhappy: apt-get dist-upgrade ... if it doesn't complain about packages being held back, none were. | 22:54 |
| === erry_ is now known as erry | ||
| veryhappy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8361081/ | 22:55 |
| k1l_ | veryhappy: ok, if you dont want to show the output (for whatever reason) i cant help you. | 22:55 |
| veryhappy | ok so you guys, NOW that's what i mean | 22:55 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: i was misunderstanding you, how often shall i still write you that?! | 22:55 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: don't complain about something that doesn't mean anything! | 22:56 |
| veryhappy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8361081/ | 22:56 |
| k1l_ | veryhappy: ok, i am out of this support ticket. i hope you will fix that issue. | 22:56 |
| veryhappy | k1l_: i am sorry for you! | 22:57 |
| para000 | so i found out that i need to give apachi writing permision | 22:57 |
| para000 | anyone knows how to do that? | 22:57 |
| tinkerbot | veryhappy: aptitude remove libboost-python1.46-dev && sudo aptitude remove libboost1.46-dev | 22:57 |
| tinkerbot | veryhappy: then dist upgrade. | 22:58 |
| veryhappy | tinkerbot: how did you figure that packages out? ;) | 22:58 |
| cmanns__ | you have conflicting packages | 22:58 |
| cmanns__ | remove and reinstall is what tinkerbot is saying | 22:58 |
| veryhappy | cmanns__: i'm right now doing it, i saw that i have conflicting packages, but that didn't make me remove them but install them. | 22:59 |
| cmanns__ | you need to remove them to re-install them properly with dist upgrade | 22:59 |
| cmanns__ | Good luck | 23:00 |
| veryhappy | cmanns__: so dist-upgrade will install them automatically then? | 23:00 |
| cmanns__ | My guess is it would... | 23:00 |
| tinkerbot | veryhappy: we're removing the conflicting packages. it should re-install after dist-upgrade, and if not you can manually install them | 23:01 |
| veryhappy | Package 'libboost-python1.46-dev' is not installed, so not removed | 23:01 |
| veryhappy | Package 'libboost1.46-dev' is not installed, so not removed | 23:01 |
| tinkerbot | veryhappy: look for your lobboost version- you probably don't have 1.46 | 23:01 |
| tinkerbot | libboost* | 23:01 |
| veryhappy | so like apt-cache search? | 23:01 |
| tinkerbot | sure | 23:01 |
| tinkerbot | or the version your output is complaining about | 23:02 |
| veryhappy | i should install libboost1.55 i guess | 23:02 |
| tinkerbot | it looks like you have 1.54 installed | 23:02 |
| veryhappy | nope, libboost1.55 is the latest version | 23:02 |
| veryhappy | strange somehow | 23:02 |
| tinkerbot | "Conflicts: libboost-atomic1.54-dev but 1.54.0-4ubuntu3.1 is to be installed" -- your output | 23:03 |
| tinkerbot | one line in a forest of many complaints | 23:03 |
| veryhappy | yea strange that's why i wrote it | 23:03 |
| veryhappy | i wanted to compile a program... | 23:03 |
| veryhappy | and now i have it, don't know how to do that actually it's my first time compiling a big plugin | 23:03 |
| cmanns__ | sudo aptitude remove libboost-atomic1.54-dev libboost-chrono1.54-dev libboost-context1.54-dev libboost-coroutine1.54-dev libboost-date-time1.54-dev libboost-exception1.54-dev libboost-filesystem1.54-dev libboost-graph-parallel1.54-dev libboost-graph1.54-dev libboost-iostreams1.54-dev libboost-locale1.54-dev libboost-log1.54-dev libboost-math1.54-dev libboost-mpi-python1.54-dev libboost-mpi-python1.54.0 libboost-mpi1.54-dev libboost-program-optio | 23:04 |

| cmanns__ | ooops that ended up pretty large sorry guys | 23:04 |
| veryhappy | :D | 23:04 |
| tinkerbot | I'll be back in ~15 minutes if you still need assistance. | 23:04 |
| cmanns__ | Not sure if all of that was needed, tinkerbot thoughts? | 23:04 |
| veryhappy | tinkerbot: thank you | 23:04 |
| cmanns__ | try that veryhappy | 23:04 |
| tinkerbot | cmanns__: looks promising- 1.54 was the version in question | 23:04 |
| tinkerbot | brb~ | 23:05 |
| veryhappy | i'm about to do | 23:05 |
| cmanns__ | I put all his conflicting packages into that remove line | 23:05 |
| veryhappy | libboost-program-optio can't be found? | 23:05 |
| cmanns__ | you need to clean up your copy and paste... | 23:06 |
| veryhappy | ok | 23:06 |
| cmanns__ | The 2nd part is where you have the rest of options :P | 23:07 |
| EriC^^ | you two should have a disclaimer: kids don't try this at home! | 23:07 |
| cmanns__ | Now an hour and 20 still updating lubuntu xD | 23:08 |
| veryhappy | cmanns__: it's strange, i think i better try to fix that alone... can you give me some hints for the future? i didn't get any error yet but perhaps i don't need to install that package... so what do i do when i have held back packages? apt-get update -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y? should this be enough? | 23:10 |
| cmanns__ | Did you remove those packages and test what tinkerbot said | 23:11 |
| veryhappy | yep | 23:11 |
| cmanns__ | if that worked then yes what you said seems to be your solution :) | 23:11 |
| cmanns__ | you may sometimes need to remove conflicting packages | 23:11 |
| cmanns__ | because aptitude/apt-get doesnt know what to do with them | 23:11 |
| veryhappy | 0 packages updated/installed/removed... | 23:11 |
| cmanns__ | Now if you install those packages it should install the right versions I guess | 23:12 |
| veryhappy | something i figured in the last few days, computer are stupid, more than even babies, they just execute whatever you tell them to do... if you'd tell them kill yourself, they'd do with instructions :D | 23:12 |
| cmanns__ | sudo shutdown -r now kill yourself puter | 23:13 |
| veryhappy | :D | 23:13 |
| cmanns__ | results may vary | 23:13 |
| veryhappy | yea, i really don't know why i didn't figure it yet but actually as a programmer actually i should be able to compile programs and be able to know how to install packages even on a very minimal system without a package manager, that's what i want to learn, makes me think if that isn't something for linux on scratch... | 23:14 |
| cmanns__ | veryhappy if you want to be compiling | 23:15 |
| pg | I'm wondering if someone can tell me if this is possible and point a direction to look- I want the computer running xbmc under user a to send the desktop of user b over vnc to a second computer | 23:15 |

| RPG-Master_on_ma | expunge: I just got your joke. | 23:28 |
| iFire | expunge: is it black or a grey screen with a cursor? | 23:28 |
| iFire | can you move the cursor? | 23:29 |
| RPG-Master_on_ma | iFire: Talking to me? | 23:29 |

| ikonia | I don't have that problems on the forum | 23:32 |
| superkuh | I literally have to turn off js to type my post. But then enter (newline) stops working. Apparently newline only works with js? | 23:32 |
