jrm2k6Hi guys, any advice to create a bootable image of ubuntu from a mac targetting an install on a pc. For some reason using unetbootin from my mac, my pc is not botting from the usb key containing the image (i changed the boot order in my bios also to boot from the usb key)00:06
EiriksScrewedok, I tried to use ctrl-alt-f1 and i got the terminal :D00:07
reisiojrm2k6: you could use dd, but do be careful00:07
reisiojrm2k6: are you calling it 'pc' because Windows is on it?00:07
jrm2k6no right now a non-working debian is on it00:08
jimihello00:08
jrm2k6I never had issues installing ubuntu before, but i remember i was always creating my bootable images from a windows machine.00:08
reisiojrm2k6: non-working in what sense?00:08
reisiojimi: heya00:08
EiriksScrewedhow do i reset root user settings from the terminal?00:08
reisioEiriksScrewed: settings?00:08
jrm2k6reisio: not working in the sense that grub got messed up and i dont have any sudo rights :/00:09
reisiojrm2k6: and you have no other live images?00:10
jrm2k6nope :/00:10
EiriksScrewedyeah i turned off unity from compiz and cant get it back00:10
jrm2k6only one usb key and a macbook00:10
jrm2k6:D00:10
reisiojrm2k6: how's grub messed up?00:10
jrm2k6the installation failed somehow, so i had to remount one of my partition to make it boot00:11
reisioEiriksScrewed: you can't turn it back on the way you turned it off?00:11
jrm2k6i thought it was fine but after that, when trying to install some drivers, sudo is not working00:11
postmodernhow do i configure gnome to mount an encrypted partition, to a specific directory instead of /media/...?00:11
reisiopostmodern: udev rules00:12
EiriksScrewedno with unity off i can't even hotkey to the terminal00:12
postmodernreisio, do you have an example you could point me to? i was looking at udisks2 earlier00:12
summerleaveAnyone done anything with collation? the definition files how to sort I mean00:12
summerleavein /usr/share/i18n/locales/iso14651_t1_common there is a denfition of how things (including filenames in the file manager I believe?) is sorted, but I don't exactly understand the format00:13
EiriksScrewedis there a way to reset compiz, or get rid of it?00:13
bubbasauresEiriksScrewed, If 14.04 in the tty run http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/  than reboot00:14
jrm2k6reisio: ah, for some reason my bios was using legacy instead of eufi00:15
jrm2k6not it boots using the key00:15
jrm2k6and i should be able to install ubuntu00:15
OerHeksEiriksScrewed, dconf reset -f /org/compiz/  [only if you have installed dconf]00:16
EiriksScrewedbubbasaures can i do that from terminal on guest?00:16
bubbasauresEiriksScrewed, Do it from the tty from the desktop or log in gui with ctrl-alt-f1-600:17
OerHeksGuest does not have sufficient rights, you need to login with ctrl alt F200:17

incognitohello. i am wanting to compile a kernel in ubuntu that is ran through crouton on a chromebook. i am thinking that I will need to clone a kernel into the directory where my original kernel resides and do a make config. Then, I can install it using the sudo dpkg -i "name of kernel here".deb once i am finished. Is this correct?00:41
zykotick9!kernel | incognito00:42
ubottuincognito: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages)00:42
incognitoThank you. I will check it out. The reason I am doing it is so i can run virtualbox in crouton. Virtualbox wont pick up my chromebook kernel through crouton.00:44
zykotick9incognito: fyi, if it's something virtualbox specific, you might want to ask in #vbox...  YMMV00:45

Mike9863I'm trying to get more multitouch features for my touchpad on 14.04. I have tried using easystroke and touchegg but neither seem to detect my touchpad input.

truepurpleIs there a flash throttling/slowing program that works on ubuntu and is known to be trustworthy?00:46
brokebitHi Everyone. Would this be the place to ask questions about user upstart jobs?00:53
compdocmight as well00:53
brokebitok. So we had setup some user upstart jobs in ~/.init/ on Ubuntu Server 12.04 and they worked just fine.00:54
brokebitWe upgraded to 14.04 and they nolonger work. I did some research and it seems like they should go in ~/.config/upstart00:54
brokebitSo I moved them but they aren't being recgonized.00:54
brokebitObviously Im' missing something.00:55
trismbrokebit: .config/upstart is the correct place, do you have an example that isn't working?00:55
trismbrokebit: although, I'm not sure if that is true on ubuntu server00:57
brokebitSure. give me one second00:57
truepurpleIs there a flash throttling/slowing program that works on ubuntu and is known to be trustworthy?00:58
brokebittrism: http://pastebin.com/bjYhNKnQ00:59
simonjr45hello everybody01:00
trismbrokebit: so the jobs in ~/.init/ would be run whether your user was logged in or not?01:00
brokebityes.01:00
simonjr45can somebody help me why is that in the ubuntu software centre the search bar is missing01:00
trismbrokebit: yeah that's not really how the upstart user sessions work now01:00
brokebitWe used to stop/start them by using /sbin/stop webapi and /sbin/start webapi01:00
simonjr45i had it after installing and a few days back but it is missing now01:01
trismbrokebit: an init --user process is spawned when the user logs it and it manages the session, and the user can add jobs to ~/.config/upstart/01:01
brokebitBasically we need these process running as a particular user and that user needs to be able to start/stop them without sudo.01:01
brokebitThey will continue to run regardless of them being logged in or not.01:02
simonjr45i am not able to get the search bar in ubuntu software centre01:02
brokebitIt's on a server so there is no X installed01:02
simonjr45how to bring it back01:02
simonjr45I hope some can help me though01:02
brokebittrims: ok. I guess I'm a bit confused on the new way upstart works.01:03
trismbrokebit: there is a stanza for that: setuid username01:03
trismbrokebit: so you could just put the jobs in /etc/init and set the user in the job conf01:03
brokebitok. But will a non root user be able to start/stop them without sudo?01:04

ph0xis this the right channel?01:26

truepurpleBashing-om, , its a flash game, I put in pid of the browser, but thats not enough01:27
truepurpleThe instructions let me know it's not enough too, I need to narrow it down, but I don't understand how01:27

princedastanHi Bro, i want to ask something... i have installed ubuntu 14.04 desktop and change into gnome-core environtment, but my network applet was gone, how to fix it bro? i have search on many sites but not solved yet...02:50
reisioprincedastan: network-manager-gnome ?02:51
EiriksUbuntutruepurple thats telling me in order to use the cheat you will need to know the variable that is the cheat02:51
dillionhello, can someone help me with a ubuntu installation problem02:52
truepurpleEiriksUbuntu, I didn't understand that. And it isn't a cheat code. It manipulates memory somehow for slowing stuff down02:52
truepurplenear as I can tell02:52

dillionim trying to install ubuntu onto a laptop formatted with NTFS, i have already shrunk the partition to allow room for the ubuntu partition but once inside ubuntu and installing it it shows the whole hard drive as free space02:53
dillionwhat should i try or do02:53
br_okenHello. How do I install multiarch so that I can run this "32-bit LSB executable" file in 64-bit mode in Ubuntu Server 14.04 ?02:54
br_okendillion : are you sure this is not the Ubuntu partition it shows as free ?02:54
reisiobr_oken: for what?02:55
dillionno its showing the full 1TB hard drive as free space, its as if it doesnt recognize that there is a partition of any kind there02:55
reisiodillion: you trying to dual boot?02:55
reisiosounds like RAID nonsense02:55
dillionyeah im trying to dual boot, ive previously had a working dual boot on a desktop,02:55
Bashing-omdillion: I suggest you look at that hard drive from the liveDVD with GParted once more, if still shows "unallocated" time to try the utility 'testdisk' and see if you can recover the Windows partition.02:55
reisiodillion: does the extant OS still work?02:56
dillionand i dont have any raid setups on this computer02:56
reisioerm, make sure the windows partition is actually gone first...02:56
dillionthe windows 7 installation still works on it, its not currupted, its just ubuntu doesnt see that its already partitioned02:56
Unix-Dudehi02:56
dillionim not trying to delete windows, if i was it wouldnt be a problem02:56
Unix-Dudehow can i ubuntu?02:56
somsipUnix-Dude: ops will be summoned if you start to misbehave again02:57
reisioUnix-Dude: properly02:57
reisiodillion: laptop?02:57
dillionyeah its a lenovo laptop02:57
br_okenHow do I multiarch ?02:58
dilliongparted also displays that the whole hard drive is unallocated space02:58
reisiodillion: check your BIOS/etc. for sata compatiblity mode nonsense02:58
dillionfunny story there02:58
reisiobr_oken: generally you don't choose server if you want that02:58
dillionim kinda locked out of hte bios because the password was lost, and unplugging the cmos wont help with it, ive tried02:59
phunyguyyeah you cannot reset the cmos on most lenovos without special hardware02:59
reisiodillion: it's 'abc123'02:59
reisiodunno why they bother, password protecting the bios is pointless02:59
dillionive trtied all  the defualts reisio, even my general goto passwords, nothing, even the supposed "manufacturer" passwords, and yeah lenovo are awful for htis03:00
ObrienDavepasswords, like locks, only keep honest people out03:00
reisiodillion: okay, then you might have to look up strange kernel parameters03:00
dillionyou lost me reisio03:00
reisiononcurious honest people =)03:00
dillionno im very curious about this, im just being completely honest03:01
phunyguydillion: do you potentially have any windows encryption on that device?03:01
dillionno, not that i know of anyway03:01
phunyguybut I am leaning towards what reisio said03:01
phunyguyI do not know the kernel params though.03:02
dillioni dont know what kernal params are or how to set them so yeah03:02
dillionand to humor you i tried abc123, and also 123abc, neither worked03:02
phunyguyit's as good a time as any to learn!03:02
dillionit seems like it lol03:02
reisioso now only professional criminals can get into your BIOS, not you =)03:03
phunyguyok let's stay on the support topic. :)03:03
phunyguySo reisio, do you know what kernel parameters are needed?03:04
princedastan @reisio you're right, network manager gnome03:04
princedastan @reisio i still can accessed internet via ethernet but i want it like normal ubuntu with applet03:04
princedastan so how could i put back the network applet?03:04
reisioprincedastan: dpkg -L network-manager-gnome | grep bin03:04
phunyguyand dillion when you boot the livedvd, you have to press a key to get to the grub menu, and you can edit that to add parameters to how ubuntu loads03:04
phunyguyprincedastan: you don't need the @ symbol.  This isn't twitter.  :)03:05
princedastanok03:05
dillionyeha i actually figured out how to get into that prior to you saying the params reisio, thanx03:05
princedastani would give the result on paste bin03:05
truepurpleHow do I stop memory map from autoscrolling up?03:05
princedastanthis is the result Mr. Reisio http://paste.ubuntu.com/8376789/03:06
phunyguytruepurple: what is memory map?03:06
truepurplephunyguy, In system manager if you right click a process there is a memory map option03:07
phunyguyhow often does it "autoscroll"?03:07
truepurpleIt gives you memory information about the process03:07
truepurpleevery few seconds03:07
phunyguyMine isn't....03:07
phunyguyodd.03:07
truepurplewhich makes reading from it or copying from it near impossible03:08
truepurpletry scrolling down03:08
truepurpleScroll down to the bottom of the list, see how long it stays there03:08
phunyguyI did.03:08
princedastanhow reisio about this result? -->  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8376789/03:08
truepurplephunyguy, It doesn't move for you?03:09
reisioprincedastan: -L03:09
phunyguytruepurple: I wish I could help with that as I am on Gentoo with gnome-system-monitor.... might be a bug that got fixed in a later version03:09

princedastanthen how about it reisio? should i put /usr/bin/nm-applet to startup?03:15
reisioprincedastan: just run it, your session manager will do the rest03:15

phunyguyversion in ubuntu is 3.8.2.1..... brb03:21

truepurplephuny, what version of ubuntu is that?03:28
truepurplephunyguy,03:28
phunyguytruepurple: 14.0403:29
truepurpleSo your answer is to switch to another distro, damn03:30
phunyguythat wasn't my answer at all.03:30

phunyguyyes, it is a distro.03:31
blackangelprthere you go03:31
phunyguyI wasn't suggesting that you use Gentoo.  I was suggesting that the "bug" is fixed in a new version of the package.  The latest supported version of Ubuntu in this channel doesn't have said package.03:32
phunyguysaid package version*03:32
phunyguyyou are more than welcome to give 14.10 a try if you want to try prerelease software.03:33

m_anishtoday is Software Freedom Day .for us here atleast .I'm getting 14.04 lts installed in a bunch of machines...03:36
m_anishmaybe i should upgrade myself03:36

m_anish(i'm a fedora guy 80% of the time) so was looking for unetbootin03:37

m_anishBen64, I was turned off, probably like many by early unity releases and switched to fedora gnome3 long ago... but people switching to linux these days prefer ubuntu ... :)03:39

alexosaurushello. having an issue with display in 14.04. after some time the screen 'rearranges' itself so it starts and ends in the wrong place (my crappy paint job: http://i.imgur.com/EPXbnyy.png). im not sure where to even begin googling, does anybody know what this is called? only fixes with reboot03:41
truepurplereisio, With getting scanmem or some other program to slow down flash. Though gameconquerer is locked up even and I can't even figure out which system monitor listing it belongs to, to force close it03:41
Guest62772does ubuntu support waacom tablets?03:41
reisioGuest62772: yup03:42
OerHeksGuest62772, sure, see system settings > wacom tablet03:42
truepurpleI got a locked up program, how do I determine which process listing in system monitor is the locked program for forced shutdown?03:42
reisiotruepurple: 'top' would show what's using the most resources03:43
eeeetruepurple: you can type xkill in the terminal, and then click on it's window to kill it03:44
phunyguyalt+f2 works to type xkill into as well03:44

loudaslifeHow can I view the fan speed of an ATI card under open source drivers? Normally it'd be aticonfig, but open source doesn't have that.03:51
truepurpleWhat search perimeters should I use for wanting to slow a program down? My search results often come back for the opposite, of people who want to speed it up03:51
alexosaurusv03:51
reisiotruepurple: slow it down why03:53
phunyguyto cheat in a game...03:53
phunyguy:(03:53
truepurplereisio, Because I'm struggling in a flash game that has something go by way too fast03:54
reisiotruepurple: heh03:54
phunyguysounds like more effort than it is worth :(03:54
truepurplehey, I don't normally cheat, and don't judge, so can you help?03:54
reisioare you supposed to hit something that zooms by or somethign?03:55
truepurpleIt doesn't matter for helping me03:55
reisioit doesn't?03:55
reisiosilly me03:55
reisiogood luck helping yourself then :p03:55
* reisio clears buffer03:55
loudaslifeOn windows the best way to slow down games would be software called "Cheat Engine"03:55
truepurpleOk, explain relevance on how knowing the details of the game will help me slow down flash03:56
truepurpleyes, but I am not duel booting03:56
phunyguy....not really the purpose of this channel.03:56
loudaslifeJust thought that was a starting point03:56
truepurpleI need help with ubuntu03:56
reisioI will explain the relevance03:56
reisiojust as soon as it's you helping me and not the other way 'round :p03:56
phunyguyagain, not really the purpose of this channel.03:57
truepurpleSure, what do you need help with?03:57
reisiothat's a good question03:57
OerHeksthat is what gameconqueror is, cheatengine-like interface+ scanmem03:57
phunyguyI don't really get a warm and fuzzy helping someone cheat in a game, so good luck to you, sir.03:58
OerHeksstill need a lot of research per game to control it.03:58
* OerHeks thinks more windows cheaters than linux03:58
reisioon linux we call it hacking03:59
ObrienDaveoooooo, the "H" word ;P04:00
truepurpleOerHeks, yeah, except I can't get gameconqueror to work, and I thought maybe  the people here could help me with the technospeak instructions I found04:00
loudaslifegameconqueror doesn't have a slowdown feature like cheat engine does last time I checked04:01
truepurpleI see, so I am barking up the wrong tree in the first place, good to know, except you don't sound for sure04:02
loudaslifeI just haven't used it for a few years, so that might have changed04:02
alexosaurus'04:03
truepurpleIs there a alternative? Maybe a command method to slow down a program under ubuntu?04:04
reisioif only there were an alternative04:04
Melaranother initramfs problem with 14.04 livecds seems lubuntu xubuntu suffered from the same.  best workaround ive found is using 12.04 lts and do-release-upgrade to 14.04 lts04:06
truepurpleWhat would be a good search perimeter for slowing down something?04:06
reisio"drugs"04:07
Melartruepurple like internet?04:07
Melartruepurple if it is internet you could use a trafficshaper like tc04:08
truepurpleI mean in a search engine04:08
phunyguytruepurple: you are getting pretty far from the support objective of this channel04:08
truepurpleto search for a program in ubuntu for slowing down flash04:08
truepurpleor method04:08
phunyguytruepurple: no sorry. That is not what this channel is for.04:08
loudaslifeSo, to repeat my question, how can I monitor fan speed with ATI open source drivers?04:09
reisioloudaslife: what driver is that?04:10
goghtruepurple: Why do you want to slow down a program? You can set the niceness at least..04:10
loudaslifeThe open source ati drivers, not the proprietary ati drivers.04:10
loudaslifeAs in, NOT fglrx04:10
Melartruepurple there used to be a program for windows called dos box search for a related program for linux.  an additional idea is you could sand box it with apparmor or there is another linux program like cheatengine you might be able to do the same04:10
truepurpledos box is for dos games, not flash browser games04:11
Melartruepurple in otherwords you will have to sandbox flash so that it runs slower if your system is too fast.04:11
Melartruepurple your mind seems one pointed.  that is just an objective observation.04:12
truepurpleMelar,  I searched apparmor, all the information on it is technospeak, I am not sure how I'd use it to sandbox something, much less slow down within that sandbox04:14
reisioare you supposed to hit something that zooms by or something?04:14
Melartruepurple then learn.  how do you expect to accomplish greatness without even trying?04:15
truepurplelearn technospeak? I don't want to spend years learning that just to do this, and I wouldn't know where to start anyway04:17
Melartruepurple I am merely stating that sandboxing flash is an enduser concept not supported by ubuntu.  Some things in life we have to come up with our own solutions for.  Enduser means it is a unique "development" type concept.04:18
Melartruepurple ok let me give it a quick look one sec04:19
Melartruepurple what is the speed of your processor?04:25
truepurplei5 760 I think04:28
truepurplewhich is a 4 core little under 4k speed04:28
truepurpleintel04:29
truepurpleWhat difference does that make?04:29
truepurplemaybe its a 56004:29

blockyany reason not to upgrade from 14.04 (as opposed to a clean install)04:50
DanTurtleDoes any one use or know someone that uses an HP Desktop DC7100 SFF for Linux?  I am trying to see if I can get the internal speaker to work.04:52
rwpblocky, I always upgrade. But it depends upon your system and what you have done to it.04:52
rwpDanTurtle, Not I. But see /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf for blacklisted modules.04:55
DanTurtleDo I need to run that as norml or super user rwp?04:55
rwpRun that? No. Look at it. "less /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf"04:55
rwpSee the two blacklisted internal speaker sound modules?04:56
DanTurtleOkay04:56
rwpI would think that to get the internal speaker working you would need snd_pcsp loaded.04:57
rwpBut that is just a guess. The rest is as they say left as an exercise for the reader.04:57
DanTurtleI see 4 items related to sound listed.04:58
DanTurtleNone mention "Internal Speaker" but one does mention pcspkr05:01
rwpI guess it depends upon your hardware but isn't the PC speaker the only speaker inside the box?  Maybe I am out of touch with newer random hardware though so check it twice.05:03

lotuspsychje!sound | DanTurtle05:19
ubottuDanTurtle: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.05:19

malkauns_ blocky: upgrade has never worked properly for me05:28
DanTurtleWhen I run "aplay -l" I get a list of 2 devices.05:28
DanTurtleCould it not have the drivers for the internal speaker installed?  I don't have any external speakers to hook up.05:29
DF3D2What is a great looking desktop setup anymore?05:30
DanTurtleMay I post a list of both devices?05:30
hephaestus_rgholy crap why is the default alt-tab behavior so hard to change05:31
peterrooneyhephaestus_rg: pardon my shallow imagination, but how is there even more that one behaviour?05:36
hephaestus_rgthe problem is that if i alt-tab quickly, it goes between apps, but if do it somewhat slower, it goes between windows of the same app peterrooney05:38
hephaestus_rgand i'm on a 1.6ghz atom, so random lag creates frustrating alt-tabs peterrooney05:39
hephaestus_rgi would prefer it worked like OSX where alt-tab is always between apps, and alt+` is always between windows of the same app05:39

silv3r_m00nhi there, one machine had asus nvidia card, and another had zotak nvidia card and both ubuntu, after around 1 year, the machines refuse to boot, nothing comes up on the monitor, and then i have to remove the graphic cards to make them normal05:51

truepurpleBecause of me05:53
truepurpleI'm so awesome, they just give up05:53
squintysilv3r_m00n:  if they work again after reseating, it more than likely is due to "creep" due to thermal expansion/contraction in their slots.  Early computer chips were notorious for this behaviour...once reseated properly they functioned as normal05:57

silv3r_m00non one machine i was converting a video with openshot when suddenly the computer rebooted itself and nothing came on screen until i removed the card06:00

somsipsilv3r_m00n: agree - I don'06:00
somsip't have the problem with RAM, but have had this with 2 different video cards. Could always be a dodgy mobo though06:01
silv3r_m00nmobo ? these are usual gigabyte and intel mobos, what better can i get06:01

DF3D2I am not understanding what is going on, When I pick a different session in lightdm it simply "blinks" then goes back to the login screen, I'm not sure how to debug this. I'm on Lubuntu but I wanted to try "gnome" it just doesn't seem to work. Even the standard Lubuntu session doesn't work unless I use "lxdm", "gdm" doesn't work at all the error message indicates a syntax error in the init script.06:14

shelloxhi06:23
shelloxis it possible to obtain a url of the apt repos in their current state?06:24
squintyshellox:  not quite sure exactly what you mean but you may want to check out the following  http://packages.ubuntu.com/06:30
shelloxsquinty: amazon linux for example takes snapshot of a repo in it's current state. was thinking ubuntu also does that?06:32
shelloxit means like i update QA to the latest packages, can get a URL of the repo in it's current state on friday, point production to this url, and it will have exactly the same versions like the QA server06:33
shelloxone week later i update QA again, get a new url for the repo, point production there and update again06:33
somsipshellox: you just update them at the same time.06:35
shelloxsomsip: hmm..that's not really an option.06:36
shelloxour devs need to review QA etc. so it takes some time06:36
somsipshellox: and probably just for security updates, which are pretty safe to do. Hence the availibility of unattended upgrades06:36
shelloxsomsip: i manage the server with chef so i need to be sure it works :P06:37
AlderzanAny of you excited for 14.10?06:37
somsipshellox: I run about 70 EC2 instances with unattended upgrades (security only) with no problems. Dev and production06:37
shelloxsomsip: how do you trigger the install point?06:39
shelloxusing that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticSecurityUpdates ?06:39
somsipshellox: what do you mean 'trigger the install point'. I build from a common AMI using Ansible, but kept specific AMIs of some servers that need spinning up ad hoc. And yes, for security updates06:39
shelloxi mean which package does the automatic security update for you? the "unattended-upgrades" package?06:41
somsipshellox: yes. Installed by default IIRC, but enabled in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic06:42
shelloxsomsip: How are you upgrading packages, which are not managed by your ansible configuration?06:48
somsipshellox: get a base ami. Upgrade everything. Enable security upgrades. Save as base AMI. Create Chef Recipe to build a server from the base AMI. Say, one for webserver, one for DB. Whatever. Each build will then have the same packages with only security upgrades applied. If you decide to apply a minor upgrade to a specific package, rebuild your base AMI and test in QA before rolling out to production06:50
shelloxsomsip: i guess that works if you use just amazon, which we don't :)06:51
somsipshellox: I use Rackspace too. It's not a willy waving competition here...06:51
shelloxsomsip: we host locally on real hardware06:51
somsipshellox: super. So what's your base problem?06:52
=== Hobbyboy|Sleep is now known as Hobbyboy
shelloxsomsip: enabling security updates isn't part of your ansible recipe right06:59
somsipshellox: currently it is, but as it applies to every server it would be better being saved in the base AMI06:59
shelloxsomsip: yeah, i guess you could also just make a bootstrap shell script when starting a new ec2 instance from the base image07:00
shelloxso you don't need to save your own base image07:00
somsipshellox: that's pretty much where it is now. Having it all in a recipe/script allows flexibility. Having too much 'hardcoded' in the base AMI can be less flexible07:01

trijntjetruepurple: what are you trying to do?07:02
somsipshellox: I suppose the main one I can think of is package upgrades. If tht's in a script, each server could be different. If a base AMI includes the packages that you want to upgrade, then each server just has security upgrades on top.07:04

UlrikWith regards to dash scopes. Clicking the "applications" scope shows a few entries even with no search term entered. Is there any way I can get that same functionality for the "home scope"? I want some pinned apps to appear there instead of the "no search results" message.07:05
truepurpleI download flash, but its not working07:05

truepurpleexcept I am trying to get a program called cheat engine to work to slow down a flash game07:06
truepurpleand cheat engine is a win program07:06
somsiptruepurple: sourcecode is available, but you've beat this one to death in this channel already today07:07
truepurplegoals the same, but I am asking about a completely different method07:07
somsiptruepurple: good luck07:07
truepurpleAnd I never got help with that, so don't berate me07:08
trijntjetruepurple: wine is complicated, and not guaranteed to work. So install flash in ubuntu and install the cheating thingy from source07:08
shelloxsomsip: i see. currently i have on vmware fusion vm and in the future i will add one ec2 instance for prod. currently i used the base image, run chef against the server and the aptitude full-upgrade after a week to update stuff07:08
somsiptruepurple: a few people tried to help. Just because they didn't give you the answer you were hoping for.07:08
truepurpleanother reason to run flash under wine is, flash stopped updating for ubuntu07:08
truepurpleno, that is wrong somsip07:09
bellowI was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)07:09
truepurpleagain, help if you like, but get off my case if you can't or wont07:09
somsipshellox: and when I saw your first message it seemed like the full update was causing the problem for you - between QA and production. So you need to move that to a different part of the process. Like to the base image.07:09
truepurpletrijntje, What do you mean, install it from source?07:10
=== tvoss is now known as tvoss|test
trijntjetruepurple: http://www.cheatengine.org/downloads.php07:11
shelloxsomsip: hmm, the base image was my idea first, but EC2 and vmware are different products, so i would need to maintain two i guess07:12
somsipshellox: possibly. Or you're getting into a lot of pinning which seems ugly.07:12
bellowI was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)07:13
shelloxsomsip: yeah, so the solution with a unique url like in amazon linux seemed cool hehe07:13
shelloxsome people also seem to run their own mirror07:13
shelloxbut that seems like a lot of work for 2 servers ;)07:13
somsipshellox: I think that is a bigger solution...you've said it07:14
truepurpletrijntje, and? I need wine or windows to run it07:14
trijntjetruepurple: how do you know? Have you tried compiling it on ubuntu?07:15
truepurpletrijntje, no, because I barely know what compiling even is07:15
trijntjetruepurple: ok, then your chances of getting wine to work are not very good, if its *possible* at all. Just use windows if you want to cheat, or don't cheat at all07:16
shelloxsomsip: so you would still go with the image solution in my case?07:16
bellowI was wondering if anyone know anything about getting HP print plugin app to see my printer again(on a tablet though wi-fi and using another app the tablet sees the printer)07:17
somsipshellox: go with the one workable solution you have, which is two base images. Then you can get on with producing the result needed by your boss/client/company while you come up with something better07:17
somsipshellox: better in terms of being easier to maintain. KLike I nearly suggest Docker, then winced and thought not.07:18

shelloxsomsip: what would be something better in your opinion :)?07:18
shelloxsomsip: don't really have a time limit for that thing, so should be ok :P07:19
somsipshellox: I've given you my advice. I don't know your needs inside out, like needed local hardware, so I can't really offer all-encompassing advice.07:19
UlrikIs there really no way to pin apps to the home scope? Seems so strange to have a "no results" screen as the first thing that appears.07:19

TheHighestFivehey guys. I'm having a bit of trouble using Ubuntu 14.04 anyone know it well enough to try and help?07:23

ubottutruepurple: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)07:23
shelloxso that's why QA is local07:23
somsipTheHighestFive: We need more details07:23
TheHighestFiveWhitelist systray apps07:23
TheHighestFivesorry, let me start from the beginning.07:23
somsipshellox: I'm in Asia. Our market is in US so we use US servers. If your market is SEA, then I suppose you'd need to run HK or Singapore regions07:24
shelloxsomsip: indeed we do. EC2 will be in singapore.07:25
somsipshellox: fair enough07:25
shelloxsomsip: just we use rails and have a 8 core box in the office for QA, because it's much faster for our devs than having a server on EC2 ;)07:25
TheHighestFiveI'm tyring to access crytpkeeper in 14.04 that worked fine in 12.04. It won't allow me to access it because it always was dependant an icon in the panel. I've found multiple askubuntu threads saying the issue is com.canonical.unity.panel has been removed. I've found a ppa that apparently helped everyone else, but when I did what it said I go into both gsettings in the terminal and dconf editor and panel is still missing. So I can07:26
TheHighestFive't whitelist systray apps. any ideas?07:26
somsipshellox: there's another solution then. Everything on EC2 and one base image.07:26
shelloxsomsip: yeah, but that's quite expensive :)07:28
somsipshellox: or local hardware for testing, and a staging server on EC2 so you can test before rolling to production. Doesn't really matter if dev is different as long as staging and product are built on the same AMI07:28
somsipshellox: then you only spin up the staging server for short periods before a release. Not much extra costs. Tada07:28
somsipshellox: sorry - my typos are bad. Hope you see what I'm getting at07:29
shelloxsomsip: good thought, thanks.07:29
shelloxwould be better to have exactly the same instance type as later in production07:29
somsipshellox: yes, but stop it when not needed. Anyway, I think this has gone away from a question about updates and onto one about server infrastructure and cloud services. We're off topic...07:30

Mr_Quistk1l probably not, it has to do with the videocard decoding something09:11
Steve_Jobsikonia: I googled the anomilies09:11
Mr_Quistif a software codec doesn't work it wont show anything in 99% of the cases09:11

Mr_Quistso sounds like the GPU tries to decodel, say, an MP4, but the drivers are crap09:11

ikoniaJango87: just ask09:19
Steve_JobsI have a host entry for main09:19
k1lJango87: just ask here. but you need to give as much infos as possible. we dont see what you see09:19
k1lSteve_Jobs: so you dont start a program with -X?09:19
Steve_Jobsk1l: I did09:20
Jango87so got the newest fglrx, but videos are still s..t09:20
Steve_Jobsso at one point I did ssh -X main09:20
Steve_Jobsso that I could launch a gui app locally09:20

rdzhey all..how to clean dns cache on ubuntu 14.04?09:21
reversibleanIs it safe to do updates while using a mainline kernel? won't they conflict with my default non-upstream kernel?09:21
k1lSteve_Jobs: ssh -X u@s program09:21
ikoniardz: why do you think it's caching09:21
k1lSteve_Jobs: that is what it looks like09:21
Steve_Jobsk1l: then when I'm in there I'll do something like gedit &09:21
rdzikonia, because i checked on the dns server directly and there i get different results09:21
Jango87ikonia, it wasnt a swear, it was the describe about the videos quality, im not the type with this09:21
vitimitiSteve_Jobs, they are telling you to use ssh -X u@s gedit09:22
Steve_Jobsk1l: and that works as expected09:22
ikoniardz: the dns master or a slave ?09:22
Steve_Jobsvitimiti: sure09:22
rdzikonia, but yes, i also would like to know how to find out what is my dns server.. i am using dhcp and resolv.conf says 127.0.0.109:22
ikoniaJango87: description using swearing is not acceptable, please be polite and define things clearly09:22
Steve_Jobsvitimiti: I'm wondering why ssh requires a password now09:22
rdzikonia, slave09:22
ikoniardz: so the slave has probably not updated yet due to the expire record/time to live09:22
rdzikonia, i don't get how things work on ubuntu desktop nowadays.. seems all hidden in network-manager somehow09:22
Jango87still more answere, than for the question, but thx for doing right :D09:23
rdzikonia, i checked on the slave and there it is ok09:23
ikoniardz: you just said you don't know what dns servers you are using ?09:23
Jango87kedvesek ezek az angolok is09:23
ikoniardz: how are you checking these things if you don't know what you're using09:23
rdzikonia, it's only my box that has old entries.. windows boxes in the same network show actual results09:23
rdzikonia, i know what the dhcp is configured to give clients as dns server, but i wasn't able to confirm that on my ubuntu system09:24
ikoniaJango87: this is getting tedious now let me try to make the way this channel works09:24
ikoniaJango87: 1.) please talk in clear english 2.) explain your problem as clearly as possible 3.) no swearing/bad language for any reason09:24
Jango87trusty tahr, video card: amd r7 250, videos look like someone used lsd09:24
rdzikonia, how can you check on ubuntu 14.04 desktop what dns you have?09:25
ikoniardz: ok, so if you do "nslookup" and then set "server $whatever" and then check the domain from within that session, what do you actually get09:25
rdzikonia, and how can you clear dns chaches? are you saying, there is no cache?09:25
reversibleanrdz: nm-tool09:25
ikoniardz: I'm saying it's very very unlikley it's a local cache problem,09:25

Steve_Jobsk1l: it's not asking me for the password anymore. I'm connected from another terminal though. I wonder if that's something to do with it09:26
rdzikonia, *** Can't find host: No answer09:27
Steve_Jobsafter years of connecting via ssh with no password, this is the first time I've had this happen09:27
ikoniardz: so.....that means that dns server isn't being resolved09:27
rdzikonia, when i ping the same hostname on the said dns server, i get a response..09:27
ikoniardz: ping is not dns09:27
rdzikonia, true09:28

ikoniajust type the name of the host you want to resolve09:30
rdzikonia, sorry.. i'm not familiar with interactive nslookup09:30
Jango87tried google...find nothing helpful, tried amd and ubuntu homepage, found nothing helpful, tried homecountry irc, everyone said, dont care on newbies, tried this irc, no one cares on the question but if say s...on the video quality, have 3 issue...nice community, sympatic ubuntu :)09:30
ikoniaJango87: your complaining/attitude is possibly why you are not getting help09:31
ikoniait's certainly why I don't want to walk through a problem with you09:31

rdzikonia, it seems like dnsmasq is started by network-manager, is that correct? if so, how/where can i pass those flags?09:37

I found out that known_hosts file has about 60 lines of known host fingerprints which basically means there is a backdoor running reverse ssh and i'm sure because i havent used this box for outbound ssh connections. How can i trace back which file/s are invoking ssh outbound connections, so i can gather some info for the backdoor? thnx.10:07

Tried latest 3.16 kernel - no difference.10:43
queeqTried numerous solutions like changing ath9k module properties - nothing changed.10:45

slyboots_When I Start, I get "Enlightenemnt error" blah blah.. "your display server does not support Composit or ECore-X was built without XComposite support"12:22
__zug__I'm mirroring two monitors, my laptop being the "main computer". (the monitor I'm using though is my desktop monitor, a Samsung 20", I guess you can say it's the slave). When not mirroring, I love the higher resolutions I get on my desktop monitor, unfortunately it's not *mirrored* so I can't boot anything up on the screen (browser, terminal..etc..) . The most i can get is 1280 x 720 when mirrored, which sucks. Not mirror is like 1440 x 900, 12:22

erikkIf free -m shows a lot of ram being used when people are doing stuff and then it stays high even when they aren't, is that an issue?12:26
erikkOr is it just something to do with free -m12:26
erikk?12:26
erikkOr does it mean that the server should reboot?12:26
regex101-7420echo "<msg time="123">Test teardown</msg>" | sed 's|[^>]*>(.*)<|&|'. This just outputs the whole input string12:28
yeatserikk: are you seeing performance issues when the RAM is high?12:28
erikkyeats: Not that I can tell. It is hard to tell. But the value on free -m is remaining approx constant (it is changing a bit) but should be changing more than it looks12:29
erikkyeats: I am not the server admin but was wondering if this would be a problem such that I should ask for someone to look into it12:29
slyboots_This is.. very fustrating12:30
yeatserikk: also - the system keeps objects cached in RAM for re-use, so "free RAM" isn't the only thing to watch12:30
slyboots_What is the nicest way to remote control a ubuntu box?  since VNC does not support the Composit extension (itseems)12:30
slyboots_What other options are there?12:30
yeatserikk: 'top' would give you a better view of what's free, cached, in swap, etc.12:31
erikkyeats: Thanks12:31
yeatserikk: I wouldn't assume there's a problem unless you start seeing performance drop or see OOM killer messages in the logs12:31

OerHeksgregtom6,yhou said you have 2 BT adapters ... tell us more please, you are confusing18:46
gregtom6OerHeks: I need to pair with one of the bluetooth adapter to a bluetooth module connected to a robot and I need to pair with the other bluetooth adapter to the other robot18:48
gregtom6OerHeks: after that I get datas from one robot and send messages to the other robot from this PC18:48
gregtom6the communication are done with serial ports18:49
SpaghettiCatgregtom6:  so what do you want from us? what problem are you facing?18:49
gregtom6SpaghettiCat: how to use bluetooth in ubuntu? I'm not familiar with ubuntu really18:50
gregtom6SpaghettiCat: how to get communication from a serial port?18:50

xmodrHi, I have connected an external montior via VGA to my 14.04 laptop. I had to set the resolution for the external montior using xrandr manually as it wouldn't detect it. Once I set the montiro to the correct resolution I have a large 3 inch black vertical bar at the left side of the monitor. Its like the display only starts 4 inches from the left size. Anybody any tips or hints on how to resolve this?18:59
gregtom6SpaghettiCat: can't you just tell me?19:00
mchang_i installed ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I had trouble to ping .local doman.  I searched this problem online and it looks like related to avahi-daemon. I tried anyway i can to disable it but no success.  I still could not ping .local.  Does anyone in this room have any idea?19:00
SpaghettiCatgregtom6:  do you know how often people ask how to do this? teach a man to fish...19:00

gregtom6SpaghettiCat: I tried to use sudo blueman, but nothing19:01
gregtom6so what?19:01
xmodrdaftykins: I have done the auto-adjustment on the montitor itself. Is there an auto sync within Ubuntu?19:01
gregtom6it says: command not found19:01
SpaghettiCatgregtom6:  does it return to the prompt? i.e. you can type in the next command? Or does it hang?19:01
gregtom6SpaghettiCat: just command not found19:01
SpaghettiCatgregtom6:  well, sir, you need to install the program before you can use it.19:01
gregtom6SpaghettiCat: don't you think it is installed?19:02
daftykinsxmodr: no, no extra stage. not unless you've not positioned the monitors beside one another correctly (for multi monitor use)19:02
SpaghettiCatgregtom6:  that's not for me to know; it's your machine19:02
daftykinsxmodr: are you sure you didn't need to just fully boot from powered off with this display attached, for it to be set correctly?19:02
BluesKajit should have launched or given errors why it didn't, gregtom619:02
BluesKajgregtom6, command not found means it's not installed or you are trying to open the wrong application19:04
xmodrdaftykins: this is a multimonitor setup. I will try a reboot like that - I need to remember how to save xrandr settings first :)19:04
daftykinsxmodr: well you will already be overriding the settings via your method19:04

degva_Oh D:19:11
daftykinsdegva_: sounds like you could do with checking that disks SMART status, do you have it plugged into an ubuntu computer right now?19:12
degva_Linux cannot mount a hard drive, it has some badblocks. Can I do something like a formatting? or it has become a piece of plastic?19:12
degva_I have it mounted, it is running: sudo badblocks -v -b 4096 /dev/sdc119:12
BluesKajgregtom6, or alt +F2, blueman in the run command19:12
daftykinsdegva_: well you probably can't run what i would suggest to run at the same time, but you can try - install the packages smartmontools and pastebinit then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc | pastebinit" and share the link here19:13
degva_ok, give me a minute19:14

qwerkus<daftykins> can't find anything in the log file19:24
crypto_guyhi, how i can "cp file /x/y/z/", but i don't know if /x/ or /x/y/ or /x/y/z/ is exist19:24
qwerkuswhich one should be relevant here ?19:24
reisiocrypto_guy: pardon?19:24
degva_daftykins: Thank you, you have helped me a lot actually :)19:24
daftykinsqwerkus: there would definitely be some output of the client's test connect, so you might need to find the right file19:24
reisiocrypto_guy: you can mkdir -p the dir path first19:24
daftykinsqwerkus: i'm afraid i can't remember off hand19:25
degva_daftykins: This is the file of the "dmesg | tail" http://pastebin.com/RUbF6gMV just after the error I've got via GUI.19:25
crypto_guyreisio: thanks19:25
qwerkus<daftykins> one logfile says I should be using winbind ?19:26
daftykinsdegva_: hmm ok, not hugely conclusive for the time being. once badblocks is done i'd do a typical manual mount via "sudo mkdir /mnt/test && sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test" (if it's ext4) and report back with errors :)19:26
degva_daftykins: Great, I'll do that once badblocks finishes. Thank you! :)19:28
daftykinsgood luck!19:28
qwerkusit can't be THAT difficult to set up a simple share, can it ?19:29
SpaghettiCatqwerkus:  is it easier on windows?19:29
daftykinsqwerkus: nope, i think you've already gone way further than i would have. i tend to jump into the .conf, add a simple share and a password to the user then it's available within seconds19:29

qwerkus<daftykins> how about a user not existing on the system ? Can't samba manage it's own users ?19:34
daftykinsqwerkus: don't know.19:35
daftykinsqwerkus: if you're going to start applying those users to file system permissions, they need to exist :)19:35

arkapravoHello Ubuntu-ers19:39
maheanuuJust finished partitioning and formatting a 500gig external 2.5 in sata drive now when I try to open it it tells me that I am not the owner and do not have permission to open it???19:40
daftykinsgreetings arkapravo - ask away if you have a question19:40
daftykinsmaheanuu: perhaps you did so with sudo and so your user has no rights :)19:40
mchangJordan_U: sorry for that.  bascially I need to access www.foo.local and I can access it with my macbook but it does not work from my ubuntu19:40
Jordan_Umchang: By default Ubuntu is configured to resolve hostnames via two sources only, /etc/hosts, and DNS, (Domain Name Server resolution). Windows by default additionally resolves netbios names, so I'm thinking that's what you're wanting Ubuntu to do as well.19:40
daftykinsmaheanuu: where did you mount it to? what path?19:40

NotTurbidHey guys. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this, but whenever I hover my mouse the minimise or maximise buttons in Unity while a window is maximised, they become obscured by the name of the application, thus preventing me from using them. Does anyone know a possible cause or fix for this?20:11
intradertgm4883,  there is another posssibility, the drive has several ubuntus - the last one I am sure had the file. How do I find the /home/Documents folders in thoser ubuntus?20:11
tgm4883intrader: it would really depend on how you installed/partitioned. Are each of them a single partition install or did you share your home partition between them?20:12

reisiojapro: the physical hardware, the kernel, your keymap20:14
tgm4883intrader: not gparted. You can mount them to a folder, but you would need to know the drive partition letter/number20:14

reisiovbgunz: allow?20:44
vbgunzallow is a stupid word, my terminal sees a backslash correctly but every other app doesn't, at least most that I'm in. a backslash becomes \20:45
tjbiddlereisio: It's already compressed into a .tgz file. I'm just curious if I can compress that even further (Like tar czf a .tgz file). Not familiar enough with tar's compressing algorithm to see if that would even help20:45
reisiovbgunz: becomes what now?20:45
reisiotjbiddle: there are more efficient compression formats than gz, yes20:45
vbgunzdo you not see it? it's a W with a strikethrough20:46
reisiotjbiddle: dunno if they'd be 6GB more efficient, depends on what the uncompressed size was if you'd have a chance20:46

YokoBRi've used clonezilla to put an image on my hdd, but i need some old files21:48
usr13qwerkus: Why not just have it somewhere in /home ?21:48
qwerkus<usr13> mainly in order to avoid accidentally deleting it. My /home is quite unstable.21:50
qwerkusStill, it would be nice to know how this works.21:50
usr13qwerkus: I'm late to the conversation, (just got here), probably should not have made the comment but, really?  You think you will accidentally delete a directory?  (Not likely.)21:51
LadonI just discovered that terminal has autocomplete21:51

Ladoninsanely so21:51
Ladonanother step closer to command-line input only21:52
qwerkus<usr13> it's about samba sharing. I keep getting "permission denied" errors under windows. The best I could do was to share a folder within /home, and I would very much like to understand why.21:52
Ladonalthough I like having ubuntu basically virtualized21:52
WrynessHey guys. I am looking for a tool, script or w/e that might do the following and maybe you could help me find it or point me to a direction: I need manipulate a textfile in a way that all lines are deleted that do not show up so and so often. Or, alternatively, the tool/script needs to order the file by amount of occurrences of the respective line. Do you have any ideas how to achieve that?21:53
usr13qwerkus: Ok, so I am just learning that this is about samba, but again, it should not matter where you put it and I usually find /home is the best place for samba or nfs shares, (it is just easier and more convienient).21:54
LadonWryness, so you're looking for a count-and-sort style tool?21:54

jaequery_hi guys, i have this server where i messed up my /etc/fstab so i am trying to single user mode into it.  but when i get into grub selection screen, my keyboard just seem to not respond.  i have tried it with another keyboard and same thing!  wtf could be causing this?21:55
WrynessLadon: yes, exactly.21:55
LadonWryness, not exactly sure but try this21:56
Ladonhttp://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/textproc.html21:56
Jordan_Ujaequery_: Please watch your language. Does your keyboard work in your boot firmware menus? grub (by default) relies on your boot firmware for input and output, so if your boot firmware can't access the keyboard, neither can grub.21:56

LadonJordan_U, I was using the repo earlier and ran into problems with gcc-4.9-base22:02

Raven-6k1l_ can you help me with that?22:02
qwerkusNEVERMIND, it works.22:02
Raven-6k1l_ I'm not exactly sure how to do that22:02
k1l_Raven-6: gdm is a dm. the greeter is just "look" of lightdm22:02
usr13qwerkus: http://paste.linuxassist.net/view/a899982422:02
jaequery_jordan_u: ok so what do you think?22:02
Jordan_ULadon: What problem did you have with the drivers from the repositories exactly? How did you try to install these drivers?22:02
trismsheap: it calls a variety of dbus methods depending on the situation, if you are in unity I believe these days it just calls the ones on com.canonical.Unity.Session, you can play around with d-feet to see the various methods available22:03
usr13qwerkus: What I should you would be for no security22:03
Raven-6k1l_ if you could tell me how to access the conf for lightdm I'd appreciate it22:03
LadonIt's too far back in my history to resend, Jordan_U. It wanted me to downgrade gcc to "sudo apt-get install fglrx amdccle(?)"22:03
trismsheap: you can also use the gdbus command to call them from the command line, but its hard to explore them there22:03
Jordan_Ujaequery_: I'm not exactly sure, but using grub's "ata_keyboard" might allow you to access the grub menu, the catch of course being that you'd have to either interact with grub or edit root owned files to achieve that. Can you boot from a LiveCD/USB?22:03
qwerkus<usr13> nah. The problem was indeed fil permissions. Those are inherited. To share the folder, I had to chmod the root folder of the disk. Don't know why.22:04
k1l_Raven-6: so does lightdm start or gdm?22:04
Raven-6k1l_ I'm not sure. I did select lightdm as default dm in the dialog.22:04
k1l_Raven-6: and i am not sure if the gnome-ubuntu needs the gdm22:04
sheaptrism: thanks for your help. I installed 14.04 with tasksel "ubuntu-desktop" and "xubuntu-desktop" and I'm in the xubuntu session where the indicator-session shows up.
