[00:00] Wryness: yes [00:00] Neldogz: just creating doesnt put it into fstab too [00:00] k1l_, thanks [00:01] !fstab | Neldogz [00:01] Neldogz: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [00:01] thanks! [00:03] hello guys, does any of you use wordpress for website, i have some questions :) [00:04] elena11: this channel is more related to technical ubuntu support. not wordpress in general. [00:04] Ah yes, wordpress, a command execution shell with a seldom-used blogging feature [00:05] you guys know if there is a more active mythbuntu help channel? ie. other than #ubuntu-mythtv [00:05] i know i am using ubuntu, i tought that this site is for all ubuntu users to chat about anythin :( sry [00:05] elena11: the clue is in the topic [00:06] elena11: no, for chat we have #ubuntu-offtopic . this channel is for technical issue with ubuntu [00:06] ok :) thank you [00:07] I attempted to use unity8+mir just now. Didn't even get past the lightdm login screen. I know it's nowhere near ready for primetime yet, but I have a feeling I could have seen a bit more of it than that [00:10] I'm guessing NVIDIA drivers not supporting Mir yet would be my problem [00:11] just had a little google of it and they don't, and I'm using them, so I'm assuming that's why I didn't get anywhere [00:11] !+1 | luckybunny [00:11] !ubuntu+1 [00:11] Utopic Unicorn is the codename for Ubuntu 14.10 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 === hampster is now known as underfrog [00:12] ? [00:12] luckybunny, the proprietary drivers definitely don't, not sure about the opensource ones in the repository. Either way, you're probably talking about Ubuntu 14.10, which is discussed in #ubuntu+1 [00:12] nope. 14.04 [00:13] early code on a final release [00:13] Hm. I wasn't even aware Unity8+Mir was available in 14.04 [00:14] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/02/unity-8-desktop-preview-session-14-04 [00:15] idea: Since the driver for intel chipset audio actually works lets remove it and replace something that nobody can figure out how to install!! (done) On top of that, lets require the user enable a feature that basically does nothing on machines with less than 4gb.... [done] [00:15] no idea whether they did or not, but the same site has an old article saying it was going to be available to try in 13.10, too [00:15] ain't linux swell? [00:16] =\ [00:16] luckybunny, the Unity 8 package available in 14.04 is kinda old (from April), according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8-desktop-session. if you really want to try Unity8+Mir, there is a Unity-Next ISO available for Ubuntu 14.10, which is still in development. [00:16] But like I said, this is not the channel to discuss 14.10 [00:17] AlonzoTG2: your comments don't carry much weight out of context and without detail [00:17] I have an asus laptop. [00:17] AlonzoTG2: also, this channel is run by volunteers, so kicking up a fuss here won't go anywhere [00:18] ok, me too [00:18] It worked great with skype until a pinhead decided to switch out the audio framework on me and then gave me twenty different codenamed files to pick from. [00:19] ok, that kind of language doesn't help anyone. [00:19] and no I can't just install 14 'cuz PAE is now mandatory even though it only effects the kernel and the lowest layer of system libraries. [00:20] how old is your laptop to not support PAE? O_O [00:20] I don't remember when i got it, it has a cellery 900 [00:20] eeepc 701 [00:21] you're complaining about a 2014 distribution of Linux not supporting a 900MHz celeron netbook. [00:21] wow. [00:21] yes, actually. [00:21] er, i guess that was a model # not a clockspeed [00:21] the hardware is in splendid condition and I expect it to operate in perpetuity. [00:22] AlonzoTG2: heh, i'm afraid i have zero sympathy. all netbooks are useless on the modern web and are only good for burying [00:22] model = 701 clock 900mhz [00:22] lubuntu will run fine [00:22] AlonzoTG2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE#Installing_on_Pentium_M_laptop_.28with_forcepae.29 [00:22] the only ubuntu version with forcepae option [00:23] the screen doesn't have enough resoluion the disk isn't big enough but other than that I have no issues. CPU does everything I require, GPU drivers don't really work though... opengl 1.3 [00:23] is popey still on? [00:24] hello all [00:24] Seannie: the clue was when he said he was going to bed [00:24] use mencoder is about as far as the instruction went. mencoder, that great home security app that wants access to your webcam [00:25] I was hoping someone could tell me what the %h in the sshd_config file on my ubuntu server meant. It was in the line that says #AuthorizedKeysFile %h/.ssh/authorized_keys [00:25] mencoder the nasa quality mplayer encoder [00:25] maybe it's just trying to offer to record video. [00:25] cliff1245: variables are likely declared further up, in this case i suspect it means "current user's /home" [00:25] %h home = /home/$USER/ [00:26] cliff1245: thus the authorised keys are, obviousy, stored in ~/.ssh/... [00:26] *obviously too [00:26] or where that home folder resides [00:26] thanks. [00:27] I was trying to figure out why I wasn't able to log into the machine using ssh. I thought it was because my public key was deleted from my machine [00:28] Why do unix process IDs remain 16-bit even while we run 64-bit systems? [00:28] Is there some architectural or security advantage to the smaller PIDs? [00:28] sunkist: there's a process count limit. === xubuntu is now known as Guest67395 [00:31] daftykins: will the process limit ever increase to the point that it warrants a larger integer representation? [00:31] @daftykins: I've searched in the home folder of my account and still can't find any keys in a .ssh directory. Could you tell me where they would be so I can verify that the public key is still on the server. [00:35] sunkist: that'd be a better question for #linux [00:35] cliff1245: Are you absolutely sure you don't have a ~/.ssh directory? Have you tried "cd ~/.ssh" from the terminal? [00:36] Thanks daftykins! [00:36] Segfault_: I do. I didn't know how to search it. [00:36] Thanks! [00:36] I'm a newb [00:36] sunkist: you can set it higher if you need to for some reason: http://stackoverflow.com/a/6294196 [00:36] I searched for it by doing ls on in the home drive [00:37] up to 2^22, apparently [00:37] cliff1245: ls -a will show all files [00:37] eeee: Thank you! [00:38] cliff1245: Files an directories starting with a dot (.) are treated as "hidden" by default. I think the shortcut is Ctrl+H in nautilus to show them [00:38] Hello I am a new ubuntu user, generally pretty new to Linux either. Updated to 14.04 but couldn't access to desktop. I have tried solutions listed on AskUbuntu for similar problems, such as re-install gnome, unity. Nvidia drivers (my GPU is from Nvidia) reset Compiz. But all doesn't quite work for me. [00:39] I would appreciate any hint to which way I should go. Thank you! [00:40] SillyKnight: this happened after updating? you could access the desktop before that? [00:40] Hi eeee, yes, this happened after updating [00:40] At some point i managed to get to desktop, but no launcher bar [00:40] SillyKnight: does the guest account work by any chance? [00:41] Let me see [00:43] eeee: sorry no luck [00:43] SillyKnight: did you try using the open source xorg drivers? [00:43] eeee: do you mean nouveau? [00:43] http://i.imgur.com/uRJNaDH.png < saywhat? I think I'll pass on these 'updates' [00:45] SillyKnight: no, the open source ones [00:45] 'we're going to replace your wine with an older version, and replace your NVIDIA drivers with generic ones' doesn't strike me as upgrading === magic_ is now known as magic [00:45] eeee: nouveau is the open source one :) [00:46] i've got an old tablet pc that can't boot from CD, can I write the ISO to the hdd and install it from that? [00:46] Jimu: there is a ubuntu tutorial available for such an action [00:46] SillyKnight: so you're using this xserver-xorg-video-nouveau ? [00:47] Jimu: A bit complicted, but YES : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot , <-Ubuntu ISOs are designed to allow booting directly from the hard drive using GRUB 2 and eliminates the need for burning a CD/DVD. [00:48] eeee: I am kinda confused. How could I find out which driver am I use? Thank you [00:50] SillyKnight: might want to install inxi python based system information utility. for example video details regarding type of video card, driver, etc can be viewed just by typing inxi -Gx [00:50] squinty: I will do that now. [00:51] SillyKnight: you can go to the dash > drivers [00:51] SillyKnight: https://code.google.com/p/inxi/ [00:51] scroll to the right and it'll say which driver is in use [00:51] SillyKnight: nevermind, forgot you have no gui :) [00:52] SillyKnight: Terminal command: sudo lshw -C display . In the configuration line is listed what driver is in use. [00:53] Bashing-om: description: VGA compatible controller product: GF108M [00:53] configuration [00:53] driver = nouveau [00:54] SillyKnight: did you try nvidia-current ? [00:54] rww, thanks! I found exactly what I didn't know how to look for! [00:54] eeee: yep I tried that. === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [00:55] SillyKnight: :) [00:55] eeee: that looks to be an nvidia-optimus setup that requires bumblebee, i guess if it's getting as far as login screen it's not a driver issue, (maybe) so might be worth a unity reset? [00:56] Can someone help me fix my audio please? I have a relatively fresh install. However, the audio slider is really messed up in terms of sensitivity. The first 1/3 of the slider does nothing then it gets really loud really fast. I'm using Gnome 3 [00:57] SillyKnight: did you try dconf -reset /org/compiz && setsid unity ? [00:57] eeee: i must sleep now :) cya o/ [00:57] daftykins: nighty :) [00:59] eeee: Do you mean dconf reset -f /org/compiz? I got below error [00:59] yeah [00:59] sorry [00:59] cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 [00:59] $Display [01:00] Is this an issue I should fix with alsamixer? If yes, how? [01:02] erikk: Have you seen this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/38363/how-can-i-turn-down-the-sensitivity-of-my-volume-slider [01:02] Segfault_: Yeah, I am looking at a few things like that, but I don't think that is the issue [01:03] Segfault_: Stuff can only be heard at a fixed distance partially across the slider [01:03] Segfault_: So yeah, sensitivity might help a bit, but still 40% is 0% for some reason [01:05] erikk: How does the sound behave if you adjust the volume using alsamixer? [01:06] eeee: When I try dash > drivers, the shell stuck. Dunno if that would be relevant. [01:08] hello [01:08] I have some questions [01:08] I came from ubuntu to xbuntu [01:08] in ubuntu, i can resize my window with keyboard easily [01:09] but in xubuntu it seems it has not such a shortcut [01:09] I noticed that too. Still haven't found a workaround. [01:09] oh.... [01:10] Segfault_: It behaves kind of weirdly. It is hard to explain. The issue is still there [01:10] Segfault_: Well, I take it back [01:10] oh man... [01:10] I usually don't carry about with my mouse! [01:10] Segfault_: I can manipulate the sound level pretty well from alsamixer [01:11] then do i have to use my horrible touch pad? [01:11] to do many things?! [01:11] Segfault_: I can manipulate the sound level pretty well from alsamixer [01:11] Woops, meant to do up in terminal [01:11] oh my god [01:11] Ubuntu is better at least in shortcuts === jack is now known as Guest24929 [01:12] Segfault_: How can I tell which sound card I should be using with F6 on alsamixer? [01:12] why does xubuntu have few shortcut?! [01:12] it's uncomfortable [01:12] Segfault_: It says db gain -27 [01:13] Segfault_: But alsamixer shows the same issue. The headset volume goes from 0 to 100 corresponding to the 40% and 100% marks approximately on the slider [01:14] hey how can i change my workspace? [01:14] ?? [01:14] allen_, because xubuntu has a display/window manager which is designed to have a lighter footprint and use less powerful hardware, as such it loses some of the more powerful features such as keyboard shortcuts. [01:15] thanks spearhead [01:16] Ugh [01:16] I found a thread with the same issue but nobody answered it after 2 pages [01:16] They just ended up having a more sensitive half of the volume bar [01:16] I want the full thing to work [01:17] And Windows users think they have it bad with tiles lol [01:18] spearhead: allen_ i think in xubuntu you change workspaces with the middle mouse scroll [01:19] also it does have keyboard shortcuts.. [01:19] :( [01:19] anyone know how to use workspaces? [01:19] I know there is workspace feature in here [01:19] but idk how to use [01:20] allen_: in the top panel are there 4 icons next to eachother? [01:20] I'm trying to get remote access working for mysql. The status is running yet "netstat -tlpen | grep mysql" returns nothing. Even went through and looked at every port that's open and still no mysql. [01:20] well... then i have to add workspace changer in my panel, right? [01:20] what is a good utility for automatically tagging videos with metadata? like a cdbrainz equivalent for videos/dvds? [01:21] allen_: yeah, right click > panel > add > workspace switcher [01:21] ok [01:21] then do u know how to use with keyboard? [01:21] the middle mouse scroll should change between them [01:22] i don't have mouse but only touch pad [01:22] then no keyboard works? [01:22] allen_: ctrl+alt + left arrow/right arrow will switch between them [01:23] oh it works same as ubuntu! [01:23] i set my workspace to 4 but there's only two :( [01:23] allen_: in the touchpad there's scrolling as well btw [01:23] ah, it's horizontal work space! not rectangle === magic is now known as Guest23075 [01:23] btw? [01:24] btw, by the way :) [01:24] eeee: hi eeee, does the error message mean I should reinstall DBUS daemon? [01:24] SillyKnight: i don't think so [01:24] SillyKnight: try export DISPLAY=:0 ( i doubt it though ) [01:24] allen: test [01:25] eeee: nothing changes [01:25] hmm.... i wonder how to whisper to a user [01:25] did you run the dconf command? [01:25] eeee: hmm [01:25] allen_: whisper? [01:25] Silly Knight, pawns are for kings :P [01:26] eeee: am i doing right? [01:26] Any good file access permissions learning articles? ls -l stuff... I'm new to ubuntu [01:26] yes :) [01:26] I don't understand why my desktop directory has execute permission, and what that means? [01:26] oh it's whispering but other can see that! [01:27] eeee: :) this time no error message shows [01:27] coffeeguy1: :) [01:27] Ranieri_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions . A great start. [01:28] Hey, I fixed it [01:28] :) [01:28] Bashing-om: Thank you so much. [01:28] Ranieri_: Welcome, We are here to help.

By default it installs php5.5 and i want to downgrade to 5.3 [01:30] how can i do that === Guest23075 is now known as magic [01:31] SillyKnight: did you try setsid unity ? [01:32] sp3ck im not sure how, but i would try removing the current version, downloading the desired one and manually installing it === peter is now known as Guest26419 [01:33] eeee: Error spawning command line 'dbus-launch --autolaunch=xxxxxx' --binary-syntax --close-stderr' : [01:33] bashfr3ak, thnx a lot [01:33] i need clarification on using my backed up files from deja dup [01:34] np [01:34] which is when reinstalling ubuntu i can use this backup to restore my original settings of my last ubuntu setup [01:35] SillyKnight: when you said you got it to work earlier, but without the launcher, what did you do? [01:35] am i correct in this assumption [01:37] sp3ck, i suggest you use ubuntu 12.04 LTS [01:38] eeee: I opened compiz config manager though terminal then tried to enable unity plugins but it doesn't allow such option, then I choose [01:39] ahh, so an executable directory in file access permissions means that that group/user/owner can cd into it? [01:39] SillyKnight: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop [01:39] What if they have only write permissions, they can create files and folders in that directory but can't cd into it? [01:39] Ranieri_: yes [01:40] eeee: I opened compiz config manager though terminal; tried to enable unity plugins but it doesn't allow such option, then I choose 'disable some window' option. [01:40] Artemis3v, yeah but the problem is that already restored the srv from being backdoored and smthing like 100 of websites and emails... [01:40] Ranieri_: yes to your first question, i don't think they can create anything though [01:41] eeee: ahh i see [01:41] Ranieri_: they can only list the files ambiguously if they have read permissions [01:42] SillyKnight: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop [01:43] eeee: will do it now. === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i === AngryEgret is now known as AngryEgret_afk [01:48] hola [01:49] eeee: rebooted, no luck.

I have no idea how to proceed in this case. I do hate when that happens. [03:15] Bashing-om: No worries. Thank for your help. Is there a way I could feedback what I encounter to community? Honestly I am not quite aware how to properly describe this problem. [03:18] SillyKnight: I might suggest ya also open a thread on ubuntuforums.org, pick their brains also . [03:19] Bashing-om: Thank you! Will do. [03:20] #ubuntu [03:23] SillyKnight: This has my interest, and I will look for you there. In the forum we will have a 'record' for community action. === AngryEgret_afk is now known as AngryEgret [03:26] Bashing-om: I will post it there soon. See you there! Thanks you, eeee and many other's help. I learned a lot. [03:27] how can i make my terminal background black? [03:27] i dont like purple [03:27] byte0x00: possibly Edit > Preferences ? [03:27] how do i install ffmpeg? [03:27] >colors > background === AngryEgret is now known as AngryEgret_afk [03:29] what is the command to run a .sh file? [03:29] darkelfjuggalo: ./filename.sh [03:30] i tried that and the bash was wrong [03:30] oh thank you [03:30] instead i made it transparent :) [03:30] darkelfjuggalo: in what way was the bash wrong? [03:30] wrong channel maybe :S [03:31] !info avcontrol | theos (avconv has replaced ffmpeg if I remembered the package name correctly) [03:31] theos (avconv has replaced ffmpeg if I remembered the package name correctly): Package avcontrol does not exist in trusty [03:31] Ubuntu finally stopped shipping an asound.conf that Just Works™ when I rip out PulseAudio but, for the fifth time, when I gave PulseAudio a chance, it proved unacceptably buggy. Does anyone know how to stop Wine 1.5.20 from producing audio that intermittently tries to play at double speed, resulting in constant buffer underrun stutter/crackle? [03:31] and I didn't... [03:31] :< [03:31] darkelfjuggalo: you can use bash to run it, but if it has the #!/bin/bash then that should make no difference, you might have to set the script as executable [03:31] !find avconv [03:31] File avconv found in devede, libav-doc, libav-tools [03:32] theos: libav-tools I think [03:32] !info ffmpeg [03:32] Package ffmpeg does not exist in trusty [03:32] I second that think [03:32] somsip yes i have that installed [03:32] !info libav [03:32] Package libav does not exist in trusty [03:32] i loved ffmpeg D: [03:32] I'm on ubuntu 14.04 x64 is there a way to unnistall k10temp seson? or disable it? [03:32] its definitely libav-tools [03:32] works the same as ffmpeg [03:33] It's bad enough that PulseAudio is usually the 2nd or 3rd thing in my CPU monitor, eating ~3% CPU on an AthlonII X2 270, but I'd be willing to give that waste a chance if it actually worked. As is, I'm really dreading having to go back to writing my own /etc/asound.conf for dmix to get audio that Just Works™ without doing stupid things like setting the HDMI as the default audio device. [03:34] ah! looks like they just renamed ffmpeg to avconv. or made a lightweight fork [03:34] deitarion, do you really need wine 1.5.x? Because the latest dev version is 1.7.27, you could try that [03:34] deitarion, never had a problem with pulse [03:34] no such directory or file... i copies the location straight from properties [03:35] kostkon: Yep. I've yet to find a way to make Super Mario Bros. X run on Wine 1.6.x or 1.7.x without crashing on start. [03:35] deitarion: then tell ##winehq because that sounds like a bug [03:35] #winehq actually [03:36] kostkon: Yeah... a bug in PulseAudio's ALSA emulation. The only reason everything else works is because I found a fragile balance of "Output: ALSA" and "Output: PulseAudio" that prevents game X from causing app Y (eg. MPlayer) to crackle when they're running simultaneously. [03:37] ...and, in that example (a game causing MPlayer to crackle), it's a native Linux game port, not something running in Wine. [03:37] deitarion, which one [03:37] which game* [03:38] kostkon: Give me a sec to remember. I was rather sleep-deprived at the time and my episodic memory isn't the greatest to begin with, so I have to rebuild the memory by process of elimination. [03:38] does anyone else have gnome-mediaplayer problem on 14.04? it just hangs when i play a video file. i can hear the sound but no video [03:38] deitarion, ok, take your time [03:39] kostkon: OK, not sure which, but it was either Desktop Dungeons, Don't Starve, Gratuitous Space Battles, or SteamWorld Dig. [03:40] deitarion, ok === Extreme_ is now known as Extreme- [03:40] ...and it was playing fine... it was just causing MPlayer to crackle when using `-ao alsa` rather than `-ao pulse`. [03:41] ok i have the shell run , i'm still lost I can't find the next part to run... I am installing 2nd life viewer Firestorm... I'm following the install instructions but I can't find the file/dirctory to actually run the viewer now using this page for a guide http://askubuntu.com/questions/155289/how-do-i-install-the-firestorm-viewer-for-second-life [03:42] darkelfjuggalo: the first answer tells you not to install, so you're doing that wrong from what it says. The same answer recommends a different client, so maybe that might be easier for you [03:43] darkelfjuggalo: but an answer with only 1 upvote may not be giving you the best advice. I'd suggest more research [03:43] I'm just glad that the BrickLayer shareware release still plays audio properly under Wine 1.2.3. The Wine devs are in no hurry to unbreak support for a wide swathe of 16-bit games in post-1.2 releases and I really don't feel like the hassle of digging up my old Windows 3.1 disks to install it in DOSBox. [03:44] somsip i have used firestorm several times in the past, on windows and other linux distros, firestorm has always been the best 2L experience for me personally... though I have never had as much difficulty as i am having now, and i started using it on Debian...i forget the version, i know wheezy was testing at the time... [03:45] deitarion, openal is used in quite a lot of indie and aaa games, it could something related to that? [03:45] and there we go i going the proper run file for the viewer [03:47] +i [03:47] kostkon: Doesn't really matter to me. I have workarounds for everything but Super Mario Bros. X and it was hit with a cease and desist, so it's not gonna get a patch. My only concern is either getting PulseAudio to work reliably for the first time ever or ripping it out and taking over responsibility for providing a working dmix config. [03:48] wondering where the best place would be to report inappropriate apps in the ubuntu software center? seems you can only mark reviews/comments as inappropriate, not the apps themselves... [03:49] what is different between kmsg and syslog? [03:49] reason i am asking is because of QHaveDate and QHandJoob [03:49] they look like garbage apps [03:49] along with all of the other Qyaddayadda from that developer [03:50] jliverman: was that meant for a different channel? [03:51] possibly. i am not sure where to report this. i was hoping to just be able to send an email to support@ or post something using an HTTP form but i did not find anything right off-hand... [03:52] jliverman: sotty - I didn't see the first comment. My bad [03:52] !info weboob-qt | this is actually in my repos [03:52] *sorry [03:52] this is actually in my repos: weboob-qt (source: weboob): Qt applications to interact with websites. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.g-1 (trusty), package size 158 kB, installed size 808 kB === daz is now known as Guest15658 [03:52] i mean the icon for QHaveDate is just insane [03:53] not that everything has to be PG per se, but i think it is a little over the top [03:53] LOL [03:57] how to read from /dev/zero? [03:59] jliverman: I can see your point and can't find anything that might help. Maybe the assumption must be that if it's in app store, it's been approved. Not the best answer I know :-/ [04:01] overall weboob seems halfway legit. their site at least seems like they are interested in creating something useful. it's just the app description and icon for QHaveDate is not cool. and although QHandJoob sounds x-rated (if you take out one of the o's) i think it follows their -oob suffix naming convention. [04:01] perhaps English is not their 1st language [04:02] so it is an understandable mistake [04:02] anyone available to help with an install problem? [04:02] but it should maybe get *some* attention [04:02] jliverman: that may be related to the weboob-qt package which presumably is used to create these. And I agree with you. You could try asking at another time but I agree with you about the icon for sure [04:03] anyway, thanks. i'll try some other outlet tomorrow. i am very tired. good night everyone. [04:03] I've tried to install several times and after installing, when i reboot, the system asks for a boot disc [04:04] I disabled secure boot. But that did not help.

[04:29] reisio: No I added a grub to see if I could boot into ubuntu with it [04:30] It just sees windows 8.1 [04:30] Before I added the grub [04:30] mmm, probably need to use your live OS to fix it [04:30] How [04:30] depends on what's wrong :) [04:31] My computer just boots directly to windows 8.1 [04:31] No option for boots [04:31] And easybcd shows nothing other than windows 8.1 [04:31] before i added it [04:31] and it still doesnt work [04:31] so [04:33] does ntpdate come with ubuntu natively?

[06:55] Just set up a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a VPS - it's a basic LAMP install for now, do I need to take further steps to protect it against any outside threat or should it be fairly secure to start with?

Just saying that it's the same adds no more information than what we started with. [06:56] allen_: you restarted and it was blank again?

[07:20] eeee: yes I close my laptop lid for power saving mode [07:20] allen_: no i mean, just now before the problem started again [07:20] eeee: noep [07:21] eeee: nope [07:22] allen_: is there anything in ~/.xsession-errors ? [07:25] Hi, I think I've damaged my HDD. It has a linux partition (ext3) and windows7 (ntfs). I was logged onto the the windows partition when the laptop was dropped. I've completely deleted the windows ntfs partition, reformatted it to ntfs and installed windows anew. But when I try to boot the partition it runs slow and eventually crashes. [07:26] The linux partition still works flawlessly, is it possible I've damaged the HDD? [07:34] FireStorms: check SMART output, run badblocks [07:35] dropping hard drives might end in getting them damaged :v [07:37] rebooted, and can't set resolution to higher than 1024x768 anymore. any ideas? === sasasasa is now known as bluezone [07:37] Guest ty, I'm trying to check with program "testdisk" it's very new to me. I'm just confused why if the HDD is damaged then why will the linux (ext3) partition boot but not the windows (ext3).

[08:07] No, with the new user [08:07] Hightower: yeah, because scp uses ssh as transport layer. just checking. [08:08] you can write to anywhere the user can write to using scp [08:09] Yeah, so is it possible to give my new user the same folder/file permissions as root had? [08:10] what are you trying to do [08:10] basically I've disabled root access to ssh as that was recommended [08:10] But I use WinSCP to transfer files up [08:10] So still need permissions to write pretty much anywhere I need to [08:11] give an example [08:11] Well, mainly (as in most frequently) this would be /var/www [08:12] you can safely make /var/www owned by your user, as long as apache has read access the site will work [08:12] At the moment using non-root user in WinSCP isn't allowing me to upload files [08:12] how do I disable javascript in thunderbird? [08:12] But root was [08:13] So I just need new user to be able to upload files otherwise I will need to re-enable root access === vir2 is now known as chull [08:14] Hightower: can you write to the user's home directory with scp?

[08:17] You suggesting just write there and then use SSH to mv it to where it needs to be? [08:17] Hightower_: Sep 23 2014 01:12:33 you can safely make /var/www owned by your user, as long as apache has read access the site will work [08:17] i don;t want to 'own' it [08:17] Just be part of a group that does own it [08:18] Hightower: was just wondering if scp was working at all for that user. [08:18] why does it matter who owns it? [08:18] Hightower: you could definitely add that user to another group but it will limit where it can write to [08:18] Because I don't want to break anything lol [08:18] i said "safely" [08:19] i don't know where else to get help. my husband is having trouble with cairo-dock, it locks the screen, here is the bug: http://pastebin.com/XN0NDYKb - help please? [08:19] Yes, but then no advice after that - I'm asking for what you would class as novice help, yet how would I know what is safe and unsafe - if I knew that I wouldn't be asking lol [08:19] Hightower: as you alluded to, you could scp to ~ and then ssh sudo cp the files to the right directory [08:19] Hightower_: i said it was safe, what are you looking for? [08:20] All I need dude is my user to be able to write files to /var/www and below [08:20] Hightower_, scp is secure, it's encrypted. nice! [08:20] Hightower_: then make your user the owner! [08:20] But that wouldn't revoke access that Apache needs? [08:20] no! [08:21] Sorry dude, crossed wires [08:21] When you said "you can safely" I thought you meant there was a safe method and an unsafe method [08:21] nope, just meant you can do it, and it'd be safe to [08:21] Where as it seems you meant, I can take ownership and it's safe to do [08:21] lol [08:21] Sorry, my bad [08:21] Will try that now [08:22] :) [08:22] as long as /var/www isn't set to 700 or something, apache should be fine [08:22] Ben64, could you look at our bug pretty please? [08:22] so "chown -R user /var/www/*"? [08:23] Hightower_: and /var/www itself in order to make changes in that directory too [08:25] /msg alis list *cairo* [08:25] Apache still working....

[08:27] chull: i don't really see any problems in your pastebin, but i've also never used cairo dock, maybe if you wait around here someone who knows can see [08:28] Ben64, ok thank you - it's pretty frustrating when it locks everything up [08:35] What do you guys think of this? -> http://pastebin.com/wgycsNmQ (twitter.com/DanMAbraham) - is it a threat?

[08:48] geirha: This doesn't list things like shared folders, which is what I'm looking to mount [08:50] Skizu: ah, so cifs (aka smbfs)? if so you'll have to "browse the network" for possible shares [08:51] Show do I "browser the network" ?

[09:15] Xeago: You'll need a "binary-indep:" to generate the final architceture "all" .deb ('binary' package) [09:15] I'm fine with the debian packaging step to assume the tar.gz from git-archive is at some predefined location [09:15] would that make things easier? [09:16] meanwhile I've gotten as far to build a empty package, woot [09:18] congrats! :) [09:21] Xeago: Work backwards it's easier to understand: DEB {Uses "debian/.install to control where files are installed} <-- "binary-*:" {does nothing since source is scripts} <- "build-*:" <- { Source-code in upstream file-system layout } <- "get-orig-source:" <- {tar.gz, git clone, etc.} === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [09:21] why when i press delete the file don't delete? xD [09:22] Hello :D [09:22] hi [09:23] hi guys [09:23] I built the 3.16.3 kernel in my ubuntu 14.04 machine [09:23] The last command I gave is make install [09:24] What I need to do next?

[09:39] superstudent: Good :) [09:39] how do i find out whether my system is ubuntu or ubuntu-gnome ? lsb_release -a , cat /etc/*-release give the same info, but i think one of the system is ubuntu-gnome. there is a difference in the updater ui [09:42] sm1d: ubuntu-gnome would have a completely different desktop environment, it would be hard to miss that [09:42] sm1d: see if 'ubuntu-gnome' package is installed? [09:42] they can sort of coexist and you can remove them only partly I think, so you could have i.e. a package manager from one and everything else from the other [09:43] aah i knew i forgot something ! i would like to tell between ubuntu + gnome vs ubuntu-gnome [09:45] Svetlana: the ubuntu-gnome package is not installed on any of the pcs === ObrienDave2 is now known as ObrienDave [09:45] what are some other differences,..i think the mutter/cutter or something? [09:46] sorry! it is ubuntu-gnome-desktop, see if you can check that? [09:46] only the graphical bits are different, they're all ubuntu [09:46] yes, he is indeed asking about graphical bits I think [09:47] i don't know where else to get help. my husband is having trouble with cairo-dock, it locks the screen, here is the bug: http://pastebin.com/XN0NDYKb - help please? [09:47] unknown paste ID, please re-paste [09:47] Svetlana: thank you, now i know [09:47] :) [09:47] sm1d: "dpkg -l | grep ubuntu.*\\-desktop" should show you which desktop meta package is installed [09:48] \o/ [09:48] Ben64: thanks, your oneliner worked too [09:49] i don't know where else to get help. my husband is having trouble with cairo-dock, it locks the screen, here is the bug: http://pastebin.com/XfB60RHB - help please? [09:49] \o/ [09:52] hi kots [09:53] vir2: does your husband use an external hdd usually? [09:54] eeee, no [09:54] hi [09:55] when i compile a custom kernel, how do i give it a custom name, so it isn't overwritten by my next apt-get distupgrade? [09:55] thats in the package description [09:55] you'll need to make sure you remove the old original kernel package otherwise it will still try to get updates [09:56] Hi Ubuntu Users. I am having a network issue with Xubuntu 14.04. The network is very unreliable and takes a long time to lease an IP. [09:56] http://pastebin.com/EB0GPSMw [09:56] bound to 192.168.1.8 -- renewal in 42275 seconds. [09:56] PaulVern: wht's the issue ? [09:56] PaulVern: that seems fine [09:56] ikonia: i think it should be allowed to update the packaged kernel [09:56] ppf: what is 'it' [09:56] i just want to add a custom one [09:56] ppf: right, so add a custom package then [09:57] Well until I did ifup && ifdown, I had no connection at all [09:57] well, my question is how? [09:57] http://pastebin.com/XfB60RHB if anyone was looking for chull's pastebin, this is the correct address for it [09:57] On boot, it takes over 2 minutes, hanging while it waits for the network to configure, before giving up [09:57] ppf: just build a package with a different name to the standard kernel [09:57] i'm building the kernel, which eventually generates a bunch of debs [09:57] both the generated kernel and the debs carry the default name [09:57] I've tried re-installing 2* and tried installing Ubuntu Server 14.04. Same issue [09:57] root@PCPC01:~# sudo lshw -C network |grep driver [09:57] configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=e1000e driverversion=2.3.2-k duplex=full firmware=0.13-4 ip=192.168.1.8 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes port=twisted pair speed=100Mbit/s [09:58] PaulVern: what is the dhcp server ? [09:58] my router - 192.168.1.254 [09:58] but I have 3 * windows machines, a raspberry pi (openelec) HP Micro Server (Ubuntu Server 12.04) all working fine [09:58] with dhcp [09:59] (and 2 android phones, 1 nokia and a laptop running Xubuntu 14.04) [09:59] all fine [09:59] PaulVern: look in the syslog at what point the interface is online/available, then look at what point the dhcpdiscover starts [10:00] Ciao a tutti [10:00] eeee, here's the correct pastebin address, for vir2 if you need it: http://pastebin.com/XfB60RHB [10:00] basically, it never works. Just keeps looping with this: http://pastebin.com/88GjgMPs [10:00] PaulVern: please do what I suggested [10:00] i have a usb 3g modem (ZTE MF 195) . is there a way to use the gps / sms capabilities in linux? [10:02] panos_: if you have tools that support it/the linux driver for it supports it [10:02] ikonia: can you tell me what i need to do? [10:02] vir2: try to ask in the cairo-dock forum, you can post as a guest and they seem to answer to bug reports http://glx-dock.org/bg_forum.php?f=2 [10:02] ppf: build a package with a different name to the standard kernel [10:02] :p [10:02] i'm asking how to do "A" and you tell me i need to do "A" [10:03] man just installed ubuntu [10:03] welcome [10:03] wow this is super fast [10:03] a little [10:03] ikonia: that's not super insipring ;) [10:03] ikonia - okay, I'll clear my syslog and reboot. What entries exactlyam i looking for? [10:03] man this is lightening fast [10:04] hello [10:04] ppf: thats what you have to do [10:04] what tools are there in linux for that (gps) ? [10:04] PaulVern: you're looking for when your network card is available and when dhcp starts running discovery [10:04] ikonia: i'm asking how [10:05] eeee, thank you very much :) [10:05] ppf: I'm sorry, but if you don't know how to either a.) build kernels b.) build debian packages that is not something you ask "how" [10:05] chalcedony: no problem :) [10:05] ikonia: what tools are there in linux for that (gps) ? [10:05] ppf: that shows you are running before walking, step back and try to learn both things, then put them together [10:05] panos_: depends on your device, eg: my device has full support from gnokii, so it's easy, but you can throw at commands at it [10:05] PaulVern: The interface is gigabit but the port speed is fast ethernet; that's probably n auto-negotiation issue with the switch it is connected to === hemant is now known as Guest75343 [10:06] ikonia: i'm building a kernel and a package using the build scripts shipped by with the ubuntu kernel sources [10:06] ikonia: how to throw AT commands? [10:06] ppf: I'm not aware of any build scripts, nor would I use them [10:06] TJ - cool. It seems to sync 100mbit in Windows as well. [10:07] TJ - the switch is dumb so nothing to configure on it. Any way for me to force 100mbit via linux? [10:07] panos_: as I sid it depends on your make/model [10:07] i'm asking for the switch supplying a custom suffix to the build version [10:07] I don't know the scripts, nor would I expect there to be a switch to build custom kernels with customer package names [10:08] PaulVern: ethtool [10:08] so you're basicly suggesting i should use the makefiles instead of the rules script? [10:08] and to be honest, if you can't read the scripts flags - again you are running before walking [10:08] TJ - Thanks [10:08] ikonia: so how can i do it? [10:08] the script doesn't have that flag [10:09] otherwise i wouldn't aks .. [10:09] ppf: so if it doesn't have that flag - why are you asking "what's the flag" [10:09] i wasn't asking for a flag [10:09] 11:07 < ppf> i'm asking for the switch supplying a custom suffix to the build [10:09] looks like you're asking for the flag/switch [10:09] are switch and flag synonymous? [10:09] yes [10:09] yes [10:10] right [10:10] ok than, i'm looking for the _way_ to provide that name suffix [10:10] happy now [10:10] ppf: and I've told you [10:10] ppf: you need to build a custom kernel, build a custom deb package with a different name than the standard kernel naes [10:10] you've told me to provide the name suffix [10:10] names [10:10] no, I told you what I just said above [10:11] except you left out the relevant details [10:11] no I didn't [10:11] ppf: Add a new version stanza in "debian/changelog" with (+1)~my, e.g. if last version is 3.13.0-35 then "linux (3.13.0-36~myver1) trusty urgency=low" [10:12] guys is btrfs a better choice for my netbook than ext4? (have small ssd installed) [10:12] that's something i can work with [10:12] ultrixx: I don't see why [10:12] thank you so much, TJ-, i'll try that :) [10:12] hello, how can I find out which /dev/sdX is a certain /media/ubuntu mount? [10:12] ikonia: there are some folks praising btrfs [10:13] ultrixx: so ? === tcpman is now known as Guest2390 [10:13] ikonia: so i asked [10:14] ultrixx: right, and I said, I don't see why it would be a better choice for a netboot [10:14] ultrixx: if you need to ask stay with the default, which is ext4 [10:14] ok thanks [10:15] I'm trying to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 but during update I get some wornings and this error: E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.ound [10:15] ppf: See "man 5 devb-version" for the nitty-gritty of how the ~ works to ensure an archive package of the same debian version will supercede your ~version [10:16] ppf: typo! "man 5 deb-version" [10:16] Cool, added ethtool command to if-pre-up.d/ethtool [10:16] rebooting. wish me luck :) [10:17] jnhghy_away, which ones failed? === jnhghy_away is now known as jnhghy [10:17] ObrienDave: libreoffice and anotherone (4 in total) I'll have them in a sec [10:18] jnhghy: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and put all into a pastebin please [10:18] jnhghy, ok, they're probably just PPAs [10:19] ObrienDave: yup, but it won't do the upgrade, it's reverting the changes... [10:20] jnhghy: please show the output. we dont see what you see [10:20] is there a way to tell which font is currently being used in a terminal? [10:20] via command line? [10:20] k1l: 1 sec, I've started the visual update ... :) [10:20] I don't need to change the font; I just need to see which one Im using. [10:20] jnhghy, disable those PPAs until after the upgrade [10:21] disabling them isn't enough [10:21] if there are packages/dependencies that are not in 14.04 - it will cause a problem with the upgrade [10:21] or dependencies that are not met/overmet by the upgrade [10:21] k1l,ObrienDave: http://pastebin.com/tTp7Qi1k how do I disable them? [10:22] openbravo and libreoffice are the ppa's [10:22] jnhghy: well, that are all PPAs. so use ppa-purge to get rid of them [10:22] jnhghy, refer to ikonia's advice [10:22] jnhghy: in most cases they dont have 14.04 packages, so they are useless anyway. use ppa-purge [10:22] k1l: agree [10:23] hello [10:23] is anyone here [10:24] who can help [10:24] nope [10:24] oomf, yo [10:24] there we go the exact respnse i needed [10:24] ?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:25] oomf, wine [10:25] every time i try and install i get 404's with dependencies [10:25] wine?

I have forwarded 8081 (and changed in server.xml) and 8009 (for the connector) but I can't access it from over the internet [10:31] hi [10:31] Any clues? === michael__ is now known as Guest50791 [10:31] m1dnight1_: look in the log, do you see the hit on the tomcat server ?

[10:33] what ? [10:33] there must be an alternative [10:33] oomf, why not build it from source ? [10:34] because building from source is bad when done blindly [10:34] !raring | oomf [10:34] oomf: Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 27, 2014.

[10:35] you need to talk to the deepin guys [10:35] how they work/what they put together is not something that #ubuntu knows about or supports [10:35] do they have an irc? [10:35] no idea [10:36] darn [10:36] oomf, http://www.playdeb.net/updates/ubuntu/14.04/?q=warzone [10:36] you'll should update to 14.04 [10:37] Are there any SSH Clients out with similar features as mRemoteNG / SecureCRT for windows ? [10:37] whats that link dave? [10:37] the trusty build from playdeb [10:37] ok im gonna try it [10:38] oomf: first you need to see the deepin support to make sure you upgrade to a supported release. then you can talk to them about the warzone issue [10:38] ok i clicked install [10:38] you can't just install it [10:38] it says its going to launch something to open the program [10:38] a.) you're not using ubuntu [10:38] b.) you're using a different base version than that package [10:38] *face palm* [10:39] oh right [10:39] well let me see if linuxdeepin has an irc [10:39] okay [10:39] I can't seem to find the proper log [10:40] These are the logs: [10:40] @begijnhof-server:/var/log/tomcat7$ ls │ [10:40] welp they have an irx [10:40] irc [10:40] catalina.2014-09-23.log catalina.out localhost.2014-09-23.log localhost_access_log.2014-09-23.txt [10:40] who use lubuntu here?

[10:40] Can't figure out what it is [10:40] allen_, ask you question [10:40] Is there anyone using lubuntu? [10:40] allen_, quite a few. ask anyway [10:40] allen_: some do. just ask the real question [10:40] OK thanks guys, How can i set my shortcuts? [10:41] in lubuntu [10:41] what shortcuts? [10:41] for example, executing firefox? [10:41] m1dnight1_: do you see the client hits in the logs [10:41] in xubuntu, it was Super+W [10:41] or resizing window with Ctrl+Super+Arrow [10:42] ikonia: I can see the hits from my other LAN pc yes, in localhost_access_log [10:42] but I can't see anything else.. [10:42] my apt has lost its super cow powers.. apt-get update just spams 404, tried with several servers already :( [10:42] m1dnight1_: right, so then either a.) there is a firewall blocking your external clients b.) port forwarding is not setup correctly [10:42] Port forwarding should be setup properly. Is there a firewall in ubuntu then..? :x [10:42] allen_, those keystrokes don't do anything for me [10:43] ObrienDave: yes, because it is supported in ubuntu or xubuntu [10:43] I just want to know how to set my shortcuts [10:43] msg ubottu !lxde [10:43] i'm running Xubuntu ;P [10:44] allen_, ask the lxde channel: irc://irc.oftc.net/lxde [10:44] or the lxde forums http://forum.lxde.org/ [10:44] cfhowlett: thanks [10:45] allen_, happy2help [10:46] without snarkyness, impressive ;P [10:46] cfhowlett: but no one reply :( [10:47] Hi [10:47] allen_, leave a message of the forums. lxde is the lubuntu desktop environment. they're the experts [10:47] cfhowlett: OK! [10:48] I currently have about 900GB of data on a partition, but would like to move all that data into an image file on that partition. Are there any good ways to do this? [10:48] an image file ? [10:48] I'm using rsnapshot for backups, so it would require to keep hard-links persistent. [10:48] disk image [10:49] Laban, do you have more freespace than your data available? [10:49] No, about 680GB free [10:50] So I would need to move/delete/move/delete [10:50] does anyone know why my apt-get suddenly failes to fetch (404) on several servers? [10:50] Hey why if I boot with the Ubuntu instellation CD it doesnt seem to see any of my hard drive partitions or even the fact that theres windows installed on the HDD... it only gives me the option of wiping the entire disk? [10:51] cart_man, is "something else" available? [10:51] cart_man: was it a gpt converted to mbr? [10:52] The only option I have is to wipe my entire disk..I cant choose anything else..it sais theres no OS on it [10:52] Hmm not sure about the gpt converted mbr [10:52] its an Asus k565 [10:52] K55` [10:52] Laptop [10:52] cart_man: is there a something else option at the bottom as ObrienDave was asking? [10:53] Ahm...I can choose " I want something else" [10:53] Plain old "mv" copies then deletes, are there any other tools that delete in the mean time? [10:53] cart_man, gpt acts like you've described [10:53] but if I do that it sais I have to format or create new partitions... [10:53] Sigh.................. [10:53] cart_man, reboot computer into live DVD first, then run install [10:53] select "try" [10:53] cart_man: no, you don't have to format, just resize the windows partition, and use the free space for ubuntu [10:54] I have already done the resizing [10:54] the problem is..... theres roughly 4 partitions on this HDD...GParted can see all of them and has no problem manipulating them [10:55] But Ubuntu installer refuses to see any other partition and sees the entire disk as 1 partitions... [10:55] does it still boot into windows? [10:55] cart_man: ok, so you should see the free space, make a "/" and swap partition, if you require one === allen_ is now known as felty [10:55] No I cant see the free space actually [10:55] I see something in theline of [10:55] cart_man: was this a win8 machine? [10:55] Win 7 [10:55] ok, was it win8 originally? [10:56] cart_man: if so, it would have been gpt and might be converted to mbr for win7 [10:56] The other weird thing I find though is that if I press the QUICK BOOT MENU which is usually EScape key on boot... I find 2 options.. 1 is the CD and the other is " WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER" [10:56] cart_man: and the stray gpt data would confuse the ubuntu installer [10:56] there are [10:56] five participant [10:57] Hi, can someone give me a hand installing some music software? [10:57] This is exactly what mine is showing --> http://superuser.com/questions/744916/ubuntu-14-04-installer-doesnt-show-existing-partitions [10:57] cart_man: was it originally a win8 machine? [10:57] nope [10:57] Ahh wait a sec [10:58] on this forum the guys says ... Runnning gdisk -I /dev/sda indicates that I have both MBR nad GPT tables present [10:58] cart_man, that's the problem [10:59] anyone whisper me plz [10:59] felty, try asking a ubuntu SUPPORT question [10:59] gpt is soo lame though -.- [10:59] wasted an entire day [11:00] ObienDave: Ah just testing alarm beep :) [11:00] cart_man, gpt is required for drives larger that 2TB iirc [11:00] *than [11:01] anybody able to help with an installation problem?

[11:59] Thumpxr [11:59] i test the dailies for install issues [11:59] I would suggest getting backing up files on to external drive [11:59] I backup using CloneZilla [11:59] ok gotta reboot , new kernel [11:59] Tor__: my NAS is external .___. Prestin : will check it [11:59] Tor__, yes, that's the idea behind a NAS ;P [12:00] Idk what NAAS means [12:00] Ah not sure if it can be used in combination with a external drive [12:00] Thumpxr, clonezilla is good for an image. for daily backups, rsync is more efficent [12:01] Tor__, Network Acessible Storage === EiriksUbuntu is now known as Eiriksvin [12:02] Simple terms a hard drive attached to the network, e.g. router [12:02] hi all, just wondering when I usd to mount iso virtually in windows, there was always a .exe I can run to start the installer. in the case of elementary os, what file can I run to start the installer? [12:03] WUBI. it's not recommended or supported here [12:03] ObrienDave: what is recommended? [12:03] WUBI nneeds to die a slow, painful death [12:04] burning ISO to DVD or USB stick and installing that way === Eiriksvin is now known as EiriksHDD [12:04] ObrienDave: NAS is Network Attached Storage.. Not Accessable.. [12:05] i'd rather know what file I can open (now I have virtually mtheted the iso) to start the ubuntu live cd? [12:05] Thumpxr, eithe one works [12:05] *either [12:05] Hi [12:06] Why is there no network-manager service in ubuntu ? [12:06] ObrienDave: is there a way of doing that ( I don't believe it's possible in windows but not linux). [12:06] fujio, network manager is installed by default on ubuntu [12:07] Guest99078, unetbootin for USB. any ISO burner for DVD [12:07] BluesKaj: Ye, but I don't find its service in service --status-all [12:07] i recommend DVD [12:08] USB 3.0 is way faster though [12:08] There's a 'networking' services, but I suppose 'networking' is not network-manager,but interfaces [12:08] DVD takes ages to install, boot :[ [12:08] ObrienDave: yes, but what If I have a dvd alr?eady its inserted, and I want to know what file to run to start the live cd? while in an os, can't i do that? [12:08] you boot the DVD [12:08] Boot it up in a virtualisation software [12:09] Virtual box / VMware [12:09] Or dedicate by dual booting, check the boot options in your motherboard [12:09] Guest99078, you may need to setup BIOS to boot the DVD first [12:09] fujio, sudo service network-manager start [12:10] If you want to play arround with any kind of distribution try using it virtual first, it gives you a good impression [12:10] ObrienDave: no, In windows I insert the windows install dvd, go to dvd, navigate to install.exe or similar name, double click it. Opens and I can begin installing with no virtual software. I want to do the same with ubutu. I.e. I want to know what file to run to start it up and get the live cd going. [12:10] BluesKaj: 'unrecognized service' [12:10] BluesKaj: There's also no init script for network-manager in /etc/init.d on my system [12:10] pretty weird :S [12:10] Prestin: I agree, but in this case, I've tried it and just want to install it directly. [12:11] fujio, maybe it needs installation [12:11] You have to set boot priority [12:11] What brand is your motherboard? [12:11] Guest99078, WUBI from windows. you're on your own with that install [12:11] Guest99078, NOT recommended [12:12] Prestin: I agree, but in this case, I've tried it and just want to install it directly. [12:12] Yes, i understand that, but you have to boot into it right? === gnu is now known as Guest81358 [12:13] Guest99078, WUBI will NOT give you a separate install. it allows Ubuntu to run under windows like any normal app [12:13] Setup your boot process to let it boot to the ubuntu live cd [12:13] hey guys, is it possible to set up ubuntu in a way that it spins down hard disk drives in a software RAID5 volume if the volume is not used for 30min or so?

[12:15] fujio, yes [12:15] Hmm [12:15] That's weird [12:15] Also [12:15] Network-manager starts on boot but if there is no init script how does it that? [12:16] fujio, is this a new clean install or an upgrade via the internet? [12:17] BluesKaj: I installed the system 1 year ago [12:17] fujio, and suddenly NM doesn't load? [12:17] It works [12:17] But I want to stop its service [12:17] 有中国人吗？？ [12:18] And I can't stop it, because there is no nm service [12:18] !cn | smais [12:18] smais: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [12:18] fujio, why, do you want to go static from network /interfaces?

Not using PPAs (currently). When installing Wine it requests the removal of the nVidia driver (part of that is). [12:55] ajay_: if you want to know about apt-get go and read the documentation. if you dont understand one thing there you can come back and ask that specific question then. but we dont need to type the same words into here that are already in the documentation [12:56] Lachezar: of course that should be working. please show the output from that install in a pastebin [12:56] ajay_, please don't waste extra lines of text just to reinforce a previous question.

[12:59] Lachezar: Try another NIC [12:59] Lachezar: well, then that seems to be the origin of that issue [13:00] The solution in that question seems to be to remove the driver. That's not a solution. === BQ_ is now known as BQ [13:00] Lachezar: Try another NIC [13:00] usr13: No way. [13:00] Lachezar: So what is the purpose of this PC? [13:01] usr13: games (supposedly). [13:01] usr13: maybe a Home Movie Theater. [13:02] usr13: The NIC is integrated on the motherboard. It seems to have problems I can not point. The NIC is disabled when the OS boots, and seems to boot after 5-6 minutes. [13:03] Lachezar: i bet the issue is, that there is a new package list where nvidia and wine have new depencies. and now you grab one new package and want to install that but the old package list and packages on the pc cant fullfill that depencies [13:03] usr13: So I have Internet. I do update drivers from apt. [13:03] Lachezar: And you can not enable it? You can not put another NIC in it? [13:03] Lachezar: You can not use apt to do updates without a network connection. [13:04] k1l: updated as of Sunday. Conflict is not resolved.

ALternately; After hightlghting text, Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v to dump, (you may need Sift-Ctrl-v for terminal at times). [13:21] bumbar_: you can use egrep (or grep -e) and then use regular expressions [13:21] BQ: Ctrl-c is copy text to RAM Ctrl-v is past into writable area [13:21] bumbar_: in egrep | should work. Put it in ''s to not confuse your shell, e.g. egrep 'A|B' foo [13:22] Fuchs, egrep worked, thanks. did you mean use single quotes instead of double? [13:23] bumbar_: just quotes in general, else your shell might want to interpret | as a pipe. Double quotes should be perfectly fine as well [13:23] bumbar_: and you're welcome :) === vito_ is now known as Guest2059 [13:25] hi, how can I deactivate that first icon on top left that says "search your computer for online resources" [13:25] is killing my computer cause is so slow [13:27] VictorCL: Use another DE [13:28] what is DE?

[13:29] in login screen [13:29] VictorCL: if however Unity in general is slowing down your computer, you might want to use a different desktop environment that is more lightweight, such as LXDE or XFCE [13:29] unity is ugly and slow [13:30] I like the other one better [13:30] agree dat [13:30] the one I had before [13:30] it was much better .. why whyyy change it?

[13:50] usr13 yes new install [13:51] flameaway: And you installed gnome-shell? [13:52] not explicitly I just did a normal install [13:53] flameaway: Oh, so you are not accustomed to Unity.

[13:57] usr13 what I saying is that when i open audacity there is no file save, no open , nothing just blank space at the top where the menu bar usually is [13:57] flameaway: move your mouse to the top left corner of the screen and that stuff will show up.

[14:17] I had an unallocated free space [14:17] tried to fromat it [14:17] and make a new partition [14:17] nothing with the linux partition or the boot partition honestly [14:17] . [14:18] hello [14:18] after that I restarted and grub recue came out [14:18] masoudborbor: I see. Well, now I wonder if the "windows disk manager" might have mistaken the Linux partition for unallocated free space. Or ____________? [14:18] i have a problem installing ubuntu.. [14:18] no [14:18] I had some unallocated [14:18] get this : grub-efi package failed to install into /target/ [14:18] I made it myself [14:18] masoudborbor: Take a look at your partitions and see if one of them has been deleted, (or re-formatted). [14:19] nope [14:19] masoudborbor: In other words, see that your Linux partitions are still intact. [14:19] even now the linux partition can be mounted with live cd [14:19] they are [14:19] hi guys, I'm looking for a simple start-menu-like app listing for use with docky [14:19] any recommendations? [14:19] I can see /boot n root n home folders [14:19] Ok. Good. Then just follow the guide I sent you. [14:19] I did [14:19] but I got the error I typed for u [14:19] Okie Dokie [14:20] Oh ;( [14:20] masoudborbor: Did you Install and run Boot-Repair?

[14:22] yup [14:22] masoudborbor: Or _______________? [14:22] same error [14:23] masoudborbor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Fixing_a_Broken_System [14:23] what is the git package called?

[14:31] yup [14:31] I see them [14:33] usr13, I see them [14:33] masoudborbor: Where are the instructions you are following? [14:33] masoudborbor: Show me. [14:33] masoudborbor: (send URL) [14:33] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Fixing_a_Broken_System [14:35] masoudborbor: Ok. Show me the exact command you typed: [14:36] grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sda [14:36] it says not recognized option --boot.... [14:36] and in grub help it has --root-directory [14:36] when I use that [14:36] masoudborbor: grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sda [14:36] yes I did it [14:37] masoudborbor: That quick? [14:37] I did that quick :) [14:37] but its ays [14:37] the file /mnt/boot/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly [14:38] masoudborbor: ls /mnt/boot/boot/grub/stage1* [14:38] /mnt/boot/boot/grub/stage1 [14:38] that is the output!

[14:42] just put in a usb with ubuntu on it, then install the bootrepair program [14:42] superstudent: Yea, I tried to get him to do that in the first place. [14:43] after I ran the boot repair, only ubuntu showed up in the grub menu, even tho I had previously installed windows as well [14:43] is there any intention to package php 5.6 for the current ubuntu version ? [14:43] then after a couple of reboots windows suddenly started showing up! [14:43] how weird is that [14:43] I created a directory on /tmp/share which I want to share it's content with KVM. I have Windows installation and I went to details > Add Hardware >> Add file System and choose Squash and /tmp/share path and targe as /hostshare however I can't find the file in Windows [14:43] masoudborbor: As superstudent suggests, use the boot-repair method. [14:44] masoudborbor, you can also boot from the livecd / usb and connect to the internet and go to this irc and ask for help [14:44] superstudent: But he said that he tried boot-repair and it didn't work, so... [14:45] masoudborbor: Yes, as superstudent suggests, if you come here from the actual PC you are working on, it would be a bit easier. [14:45] did it give an error or anything? [14:45] <_8_> _ [14:45] I think the boot repair program automatically generates a log [14:45] sorry I would do it later but I cannot now [14:45] but [14:45] when I type sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys [14:46] it says mount cound not find /mnt/sys in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [14:47] when I got to grub-install [14:47] mount #see what is mounted. [14:47] it says device node not found [14:47] and embedding is not possible [14:50] I have an old server here (10.04) which makes me wondering... It has a constant load of 4/3/2 and with htop and a delay of 0.5 I still can't see any process using at least 0.1% CPU though the overall indicator at the top has spikes up into the 40% for some cores... what could that be? [14:50] masoudborbor: You may need to reboot and start over. [14:51] soahccc: I don't know, but probably best to just upgrade to 12.04 [14:52] usr13: yeah I guess we migrate the contents and the trash the server alltogether... I've got the feeling that the server might be infected with something [14:52] soahccc: sudo htop [14:52] soahccc: What could it be infected with? [14:52] The vlc window won't display. It's on the taskbar, it's in the tray. I have sound. WHen I switch workspaces it shows up with moving video in the little thumbnail. I can switch it to different workspaces with ctrl-alt-shift-arrows. But it's not actually on the screen. [14:53] hnsz: Alt-Tab [14:53] thanks [14:53] need to gonow [14:54] usr13: nope [14:54] soahccc, any memory issues? [14:54] thanks everybody for great help [14:54] I would do it tomorrow [14:54] masoudborbor: got it now....? [14:54] Funny thing is it seems to be between workspaces when I switch [14:54] masoudborbor: Oh, ok [14:54] usr13: what do I know :D I wasn't maintaining the server but there is CPU load and no process which is using it (even top doesn't show any difference) http://files.sven.bmonkeys.net/images/apollon.png [14:54] Minimalising everything else doesnt work either. [14:54] soahccc: Is it fully updated? [14:54] soahccc: If not, try: [14:55] soahccc: sudo apt-get updat && sudo apt-get upgrade [14:55] pavlos: I haven't checked the RAM but the machine works since 300 days without any problems beside the load [14:55] pavelz: uptime [14:55] soahccc, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will bring all installed packages update [14:56] pavelz: (Waht is the uptime?) [14:56] i [14:56] To be honest, i'm a bit scared that the machine (or rather service on it) will shatter when I update everything. I need to trash this server asap :( === derk0pf is now known as derk0pf|NA [14:58] soahccc: uptime? [14:58] soahccc: One thing is for sure, you will not fix anything if you don't do anything. ;) [14:59] \quit [14:59] :q [14:59] usr13: yeah sure. The server needs updates. But I was just curious if there is a way to tell what is using the CPU. [14:59] does anyone know a way to install iPhone apps from Ubuntu without running iTunes in a VM (or wine)? [14:59] eisflo: /exit [14:59] soahccc: htop [15:00] usr13: 16:58:29 up 295 days and you that htop is not helping me http://files.sven.bmonkeys.net/images/apollon.png [15:00] +see [15:00] Sven_vB: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone [15:01] " For htop to display correctly all running processes, it needs to run as root." aka sudo htop [15:01] yeah it's running as root [15:01] usr13, i skimmed over that, but it seems to only mention media file transfers [15:01] usr13, which part did i miss? [15:02] soahccc: ls -ltr /var/lib/dpkg/info/*list #What is the last package(s), and last date? [15:03] usr13: sure you want to know? [15:03] 2013-12-17 [15:03] Sven_vB: What is it you want to do? [15:03] Hello everybody. I am trying to change a message in .ts localization file associated to a package. When I recompile and reinstall the package, it seems that the localized message isn't updated though I can find the msg in the qm file. Is there any updating or refreshing mechanism in Ubuntu ? [15:04] usr13, i'd like to install cordova-poc on an iPhone, ideally w/o installing iTunes first. [15:04] I need a minipcie wireless card for a mini-itx desktoip [15:05] soahccc: So you come here with a server that has been up for 295 days, the last updated that have been done are from almost a year ago; What other advise would you get from us rather than to reboot the server and do updates. (If you want to fix something you have to do something.) I would also suggest joining #ubuntu-server [15:05] soahccc: Backup what you need to backup and do some maintenance [15:05] I saw some intel centrino, but I read that the best supported are atheros with ath9k [15:07] soahccc: All we can do is give advise and if anyone else on this channel has any other advise, I'm sure they would have said so. [15:07] usr13: as I said I know that this server is scary. Just got the access and I know for sure that I'm going to kill it. I was just curious why I couldn't find the CPU using process. Maybe it's indeed infected. Anyway thanks and also thanks for the channel hint [15:08] soahccc: Yea, ask those guys.... [15:08] soahccc: I don't know that you need to kill it and start over, it may very well just need some TLC [15:09] soahccc: Just because it has been neglected, does not tell you it can't be fixed. [15:10] gnome is working perfect , thanks :D [15:10] VictorCL: Glad you got it. [15:10] so happy to have gnome back . [15:10] but I had to use the city one [15:10] cause the other looked weried [15:10] this one looks perrect [15:10] perfect [15:11] usr13: well there is a website running on this monster with all kinds of undocumented dependencies and stuff (really scary). We are completely starting over (with everything) :) So the whole thing will probably break if I now attempt to update 2 years [15:11] soahccc: Well, if the site is working ok, it is doing it's job === Hobbyboy|Away is now known as Hobbyboy [15:12] soahccc: What kind of site is it? [15:12] soahccc: php? [15:12] ruby/rails [15:12] soahccc: Is it a CMS? [15:12] soahccc, you could update a few packages at a time [15:13] soahccc: You could clone the drive(s) [15:13] usr13: no it's something custom and it has some java lucene connections here, some other dependencies there... I haven't fully discovered the "monster" yet :) [15:14] soahccc: Well, yea, you need to look it over and see what you've got first.... [15:15] usr13: I was just like "well lets SSH in there, oh wait why is there such a high load... no process using CPU while using CPU, wat?" you know :) [15:16] soahccc: Well, you may be on the right track. Just find what may be amiss and only fix what needs fixing, (leave it as is and let it keep doing it's job). [15:18] is there somewhere a roadmap to see when php 5.6 will be available for 14.04? [15:18] AciD`: after it's ready [15:18] soahccc: But I know what you are thinking because websites can be very hard / time-consuming to rebuild, (some are almost impossible to duplicate). BUT, you might consider mirroring it if you can. === WhiteWolf is now known as WhiteWolf|AWAY [15:19] reisio > usually yes, but is there a page somewhere with the current work on progress info ? [15:19] before I waste my time, switching back to Ubuntu from Kali Linux, do you guys have a problem connecting metasploit to database? [15:21] basheba: if you can do that on any distro, you can do that on any other [15:22] AciD`: seems to be quite a secret, but it also doesn't matter [15:23] why do you even bother to answer? :\ [15:23] because it's rude to ignore people? [15:23] I can be quiet and let all the other people talking to you talk instead, though, if you like === moparisthebest is now known as moparsthbest === moparsthbest is now known as mopar [15:26] AciD`: You can use ppa if you want. === mopar is now known as moparisthebest [15:27] AciD`: http://phpave.com/upgrade-to-php-56-on-ubuntu-1404-lts/ [15:27] AciD`: http://phpave.com/upgrade-to-php-56-on-ubuntu-1404-lts/ [15:27] oh, nice :) [15:27] beat me by 7 secs [15:27] basheba: Sorry... [15:27] I'm having trouble installing 14.04, I already had to add nomodeset just to be able to see any text, and I'm getting these errors: http://i.imgur.com/q9aPIQa.jpg I've searched for solutions but nothing I've tried has worked so far. [15:28] thank you usr13 and bazzzb. I found that before, but first wanted to weight know if I should wait the 'official' repo to get updated or not, hence my question reisio :) [15:28] right, I got that [15:28] there are just no easy answers [15:28] but again, it just doesn't matter [15:29] -weight [15:29] hi [15:30] jbernal0019__: Is that all you get? No login prompt? [15:32] jdeeburke: Is that all you get? No login prompt?

I am trying to install ubuntu fresh. [15:41] Hey guys, im brand new ubuntu. I burned ISO to disc and booted PC from CD/DVD, and I get "Reboot and select proper boot device" [15:42] Also, I downloaded the ISO on OSX and booting onto a PC, if that matters [15:42] bad d/l or burn. try again [15:42] Okay, i will. [15:42] jdeeburke_: Oh, sorry. I may have missunderstood your statement. I thought you installed already and were trying to boot afterward. [15:42] jdeeburke_: Did you run checksum on the ISO you downloaded? [15:43] usr13: No I'm sorry, I may not have been clear. It's a fresh install of 14.04 to go alongside a Windows 8 install. [15:43] guest5 make sure you are burning it right. dont simply burn it as a data dvd, use power iso [15:43] then get in your boot setup and setup your cd rom as primary boot [15:44] jdeeburke_: When you say, "It's a fresh install of 14.04" it leads us to believe that Ubuntu has been installed. [15:44] usr13: Sorry about that. [15:44] using ubuntu 14LTS how often are kernel updates coming and is there a (future) version past which it's unlikely to move as a distro? [15:44] jdeeburke_: Is your install media USB? [15:44] Turingi: huh? [15:45] usr13: The md5 checked out when I downloaded the iso, I am running the "check disc for defects" now [15:45] gotta love google translate LOL [15:45] bashfr3ak, do you know of any similar for OSX. I downloaded the ISO on OSX and installing on a PC [15:45] Turingi: We don't know how often we will get kernel updates. Now what are you asking about future versions? [15:45] usr13: Yes it's a USB, I followed the instructions on the Ubuntu site to create it [15:45] jdeeburke_: Ok. Good. [15:46] reisio: for example, there are a bunch of capabilities in the 3.13 kernel that allow GPUs to control the fan speed [15:46] guest5 not a OSX expert, but anything that burns cds, you just dont wanna burn it as plain data [15:46] Turingi: so? [15:46] Pretty sure the built in burner does it correctly, but I'll try again and go on from there [15:46] reisio: if ubuntu 14LTS remains stuck with an ancient kernel, it's not going to be a viable distro, I think [15:47] usr13: Looks like I'm getting the same error screen on that option as well. I am having to replace "quiet splash" with "nomodeset" in order to run anything at all from the grub menu [15:47] * ObrienDave has never had an issue with a normal burn [15:47] reisio, usr13: also x updates and such [15:47] i had, burned fedora as plain data in a dvd and it never booted [15:48] Turingi: it's not ancient, and you aren't meant to stick with any particular version of any distro forever [15:48] than i burned it again properly with power iso in windows and it worked [15:48] samething for centos [15:49] don't know what to tell ya. used Roxio in windows and k3b in ubuntu. no problems [15:50] does the installer detect what drivers to install? aka can I install to a HDD on PC 1 and have it work okay on PC 2? [15:50] maybe it was the burner ... [15:50] Jimu, usually. not always if proprietary drivers needed [15:51] Jimu that will depend on how much they differ [15:52] ObrienDave: the device I'm trying to install can only boot from internal HDD or Floppy. tricky. === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [15:52] hi [15:52] bashfr3ak: I use imgburn on windows. opensource and lightweight. very nice [15:52] hi alimiracle [15:52] bashfr3ak: it's a pretty old exotic Fujitsu tablet [15:52] h [15:52] Jimu, then i suggest sticking with generic drivers until after the transfer [15:53] ObrienDave: so leave the '3rd party' box unchecked basically? [15:53] bazzzb nice, yeah my first attempt was with CDxburner, than the generic one, then poweriso :P [15:53] it took me 2 burners to succeed [15:54] you probably just need to slow the burn speed [15:54] Jimu, rd party would be ok. mostly covers media codecs [15:54] *3rd [15:54] would 16x be considered too fast? [15:54] Jimu, just not, updates while installing [15:55] bashfr3ak, really depends on the disks you're using [15:55] regular dv-r's ? [15:55] 4gb ones [15:55] ObrienDave: alright, thanks! [15:55] bashfr3ak: yes, too fast [15:56] interesting [15:56] you can burn fast and have the app check it was burned correctly, and potentially have wasted your time and do it all over again [15:56] i did burn with 16x on power iso though [15:56] bashfr3ak, meaning speed rating. if 16x drive don't use 12x disks [15:56] or you can just burn slow in the first place [15:56] z.z..z.z.

[16:00] bashfr3ak: an unfortunate coincidental two letters [16:00] waste of disk space. and i NEVER hibernate [16:01] Is it possible to encrypt the swap partition during a server install? (or desktop install for that matter?) [16:01] not so coicidental [16:01] ObrienDave: How big is your hard drive? [16:01] :P [16:01] 1.5TB [16:01] some OS's will even tell you swap is bad if you have too much memory [16:01] ObrienDave: And you are worried about 8G? [16:01] nope, don't need it [16:02] DigitalOcean disables swap by default [16:02] ObrienDave: You obviously do not understand all of what swap does. [16:02] of course i do. i've been dealing with computers since 1971 [16:02] ObrienDave: Educate yourself and come back if you have questions. [16:02] Can you make packaging to my program [16:02] usr13 as far as i know swap reservers memory ram to use later in case you use 100% of your pc 'power' [16:02] except for leaving vm.swappiness alone, I think he understands it well enough [16:03] yup [16:03] so if i have 8gb ram [16:03] i doubt ill be using swap [16:03] Can you make packaging to my program [16:03] unless im in a vm or something ... [16:03] but i dont run vms on my gaming rig [16:04] however Linux assumes you'll be swapping [16:04] so if you don't want to be, you need to tell it [16:04] ObrienDave: There are people that have been using coffee for 50 years and still don't know how to grow or cultivate it. [16:04] well, yeah, if you have 1tb why not allocate 1gb , i get it :P [16:05] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-virtual-memory-swap-file-on-a-vps#2 [16:05] well, i'm 57 and don't know how to grow it ;P [16:05] ObrienDave: Nor do I. [16:05] i have been drinking coffee for 2 decades and no clue how to grow it [16:06] is encrypted swap possible with ubuntu server? [16:06] i know about smashing beans though [16:06] bashfr3ak: I bet you could manage it [16:06] step one: accidentally drop bean on ground [16:06] I am going to ask this question in this channel since this seems to be the only channel where people talk. Anyhow. Im trying to build a package.. when I use checkinstall everything works great. but I want to build it with the intent of putting it on my ppa.. anyhow when I use bzr builddeb -- -us -uc, I get error at the end, take a look here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8408128/ .. I just dont get it.. Hopefully someone can give me a pointer or two.. [16:06] step two: done [16:06] lol [16:06] ObrienDave: bashfr3ak /join #coffee [16:06] rofl [16:06] people romanticize agriculture [16:06] dont you need some special medication for your lovely growing plants? [16:06] pretty sure they need special treatment :P\ [16:06] nope [16:06] that is optional [16:07] coffee plants will be here long after we're not [16:07] coffee drives the forces of this very world tbh [16:07] bashfr3ak, I burned it again, and my pc is still not recognizing it. I dont have windows on the PC. [16:07] it's a wonderful stimulant [16:07] hey, is there a quick way to check what firmware is included in ubuntu 14.04 kernel?

[16:09] Yeah [16:09] And its set to boot from dvd/cd [16:09] usr13: thanks, gonna try that [16:09] i see [16:10] well if your boot is set properly and your drive is working fine than it really is the cd you burned [16:10] is pc desktop 64 bit ?

[16:14] no [16:14] i'm using xubuntu [16:14] gj [16:14] and I'm in trouble with laptop lid closing [16:14] the #coffee is not a fairy tale [16:15] when my laptop's lid closed and opened, screen goes black screen [16:15] bazzzb: Yeah it's also expensive :d [16:15] I've got a server that powered itself off. I'd like to find out why. Syslog doesn't show any activity in the minute leading up to the power down. What else might I look at? [16:15] sparr: overheating maybe? [16:15] cats on the power button [16:16] Glooomy: You can install DSM on a PC too [16:16] I'd expect to see a themal warning if it was controlled by the OS - the bios maybe different [16:16] anyone use xubuntu with laptop? [16:17] First works Problem. My PC boots faster than I can enter uefi and change boot priority ._. [16:17] Thumpxr blindly press del [16:17] Bazzzb> DSM? [16:17] dont wait for it [16:18] bashfr3ak: I enabled ultra fast boot ._.no way :/ [16:18] or f2 or whatever key you need to bring up the uefi/bios [16:19] Glooomy: DSM is the OS for Synology, if u install on PC you have a Syno environment with all the nice jucy stuff [16:19] Thumpxr, no bios power up beside the power button? [16:19] hi [16:20] I'm a dev. I've been thinking about moving to a pub/sub architecture for parts of my application. Is there something already installed on the system level that I can use for that? Or do I need to install extra software for that? [16:20] Thumpxr what BluesKaj just said [16:20] it should be in your motherboard [16:20] okay, I'm gonna try this one more time: Does Ubuntu server encrypt the swap partition during install with full disk encryption? [16:20] if you have the button [16:20] when i can put a shortcut of a blender program to create a link in the desktop? [16:20] Glooomy: http://xpenology.com/ === g00fy|BNC is now known as g00fy [16:21] Bazzzb> Oh ok right thank you! I'll look into that [16:21] michele_: /usr/share/applications > copy to > desktop , or create a .desktop if it isn't there already [16:21] I thought most newer laptops had the uefi/bios power up button due to the fast boot option === AngryEgret_afk is now known as AngryEgret [16:21] i think hes in a desktop [16:22] I'm ok with installing a messaging queue, just wondered whether linux / ubuntu already had something in place.

[16:22] maybe it's just lenovo that has the uefi/bios power up , bashfr3ak [16:23] yeah mine are HP's [16:23] no i've a shortcut extracted from a .bz2 [16:23] my desktop motherboard does have the bios button though [16:23] its fricken great [16:23] i want to put a shortcut elsewhere [16:24] and a want to put a link in the desktop to open the program [16:24] is there a way to update the kernel (just the kernel) to a newer one in 14.04? or do I have to do a whole release upgrade? [16:24] michele_: you have a shortcut extracted from a .bz2 , or an executable file ? [16:24] michele_, open blender folder, right click the executable and send to desktop (create link) [16:24] mefistofeles: all LTS get backport LTS kernels [16:24] .bz2 [16:25] k1l_: do I need a special repo? [16:25] bashfr3ak, yeah I have 2 older HP desktops that have the regular bios on them [16:25] i've the folder in the desktop [16:25] mefistofeles: but you need to wait for 14.10 to be released to have the 14.10 backport kernel [16:25] k1l_: oh, ok. [16:25] when i can cut and paste the folder? [16:25] where* [16:25] anywhere you like [16:25] mefistofeles: but you can try the mainline kernels anyway. but as LTS is meant for stbility i would suggest to go with the 14.10 kernel if needed [16:26] where is the folder then there are all the programs? [16:26] michele_: right click on it, and put it in your home directory or something [16:26] ok home... [16:27] michele_, it does not matter. blender is self contained in the extracted folder [16:27] michele_: usually the binary files go in /usr/bin , (so it's accessible by all users), or it can be in ~/bin , so it's accessed by you alone [16:27] k1l_: but for mainline kernels I'd have to compile them manually myself right? [16:27] mefistofeles: no [16:28] !mainline | mefistofeles [16:28] mefistofeles: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel.

What OS and software would you suggest ?

[17:14] yeah those are filesystems [17:14] partition table is like gpt [17:14] if you use it for data [17:14] most likely it's intel [17:14] alright then [17:14] just give intel a shot, you can try gpt if you don't find anything [17:15] eeee: the next step is "analyse" I suppose ? [17:15] yeah [17:15] Why can't I find man:ls in the Launcher? [17:16] yecril71pl: it's a console only app, and you'd have a truly cluttered launcher if every man page were listed [17:16] there are hundreds [17:16] eeee: How to recover the data ? Can you help me with that? [17:16] yecril71pl: open a terminal, run man ls [17:16] efe: did the partitions show up?

Thank you so much for your effort [18:03] !recovery | efe [18:03] efe: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode.

[18:16] try the other way arround, and double check on POST if the disks are shown before the system boots up on cz === jack is now known as Guest90532 [18:17] The disks show at POST. [18:18] I'm trying to Clone my Ubuntu disk to an image on a another disk in the computer (NTFS). === gnu is now known as Guest61753 [18:18] potatowedge: How did you determine the other devices aren't found - did you check the "dmesg" log ? [18:20] @TJ-: Yes, dmesg reflects only /dev/sda (USB-Clonezilla) as being detected. I also looked for /dev/hda* which don't exist. [18:21] hello room [18:22] potatowedge: Can you pastebin the dmesg, that sounds like a failed controller driver issue, or udev playing the fool even [18:22] hi mr [18:23] After installing 14.04.1 reboot brings me to busybox. any thoughts? [18:23] @TJ-: Sure, will be back shortly with a dmesg pastebin. [18:23] I have just changed to Ubuntu 14.04 and I can see an icon in a triangle that says "The update information is outdated"!!

[18:31] I've tried booting with nomodeset added, but no luck. I've edited fstab to properly reflect the sdx value instead of the uuid [18:31] ripthejacker, use lspci [18:32] carbon13, when I do that, the vga string shows intel corporation device, and 3d controller string shows nvidia corporation device [18:33] Rip. from the menu, hit system, then system settings. scroll down to details.

[18:33] hey [18:34] Hi All, I want to install hpcc(or any software) on a ubuntu machine without a internet connection. So what ways I do have to install latest hpcc on it..? I can download the software on to other machine with internet connection and then copy them over to that machine without a internet connection. [18:34] carbon13, no, but it is not showing up in additional drivers section. [18:34] Rip. Switch in bios? [18:34] Can someone help me.. figuring out a way for this. [18:34] dtraveler, find the .deb packages and install them on the offline computer [18:34] with sudo dpkg -i package.deb [18:35] unrar: Thanks, But how about the dependencies it is having.. ? How can I know the dependencies? [18:35] dtraveler, open .deb with software center, gdebi, etc. [18:35] dtraveler, which package? [18:35] you might consider mirroring the package repos [18:35] hpcc.. [18:35] dtraveler, if you have no internet connection you have to download the dependencies manually I guess... [18:35] and then taking the drive with the mirror onto the machine with no internet connection [18:36] i've done it countless times lol [18:36] carbon13, I'm trying to install nvidia-current, fingers crossed :| [18:36] hi [18:36] ohio [18:36] dtraveler, http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/hpcc [18:36] treehug88 / unrar: Yes, I have to.. But how can i know the dependencies it is having? [18:36] if you have the full mirrors, then you'll have all the deps [18:36] at packages.ubuntu.com [18:36] ripthejacker, which exact dell model do you have? [18:36] iirc the dependencies are stated [18:36] I suspect someone here can tell you how to figure out dependencies of packages [18:37] carbon13, dell 3542 [18:37] and sub model? [18:37] unrar / ObrienDave: Thanks.. :) [18:37] dtraveler: the page there lists the dependencies [18:37] ripthejacker, and which sub model?

I can see the list.. [18:38] carbon13, The laptop has an nvidia sticker on it :p [18:38] dtraveler, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/amd64/hpcc/1.4.1-2build1 [18:39] you can see the dependencies there [18:39] Thanks all ... :) I will try these.. and come back here.. If I need any help [18:39] ripthejacker, i've checked it NVIDIA GeForce 820M graphics [18:40] carbon13, Yes that's what the site said. [18:40] dtraveler, at "downloadable packages" you can download the debs, although keep in mind that that's an amd64 package, if your architecture is i386 then see: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/i386/hpcc/1.4.1-3 [18:40] ripthejacker, probably the OS has recognized the intel graphic first === sins-_c is now known as sins- [18:41] seems like photorec is recovering some files [18:41] carbon13, Ok, so installing nvidia-current and then rebooting will hopefully solve it, right?

I know its easy using google or a reg calc but it would be handy to have asmall app that converts USD,btc and mbtc [19:30] Surkow|laptop, an applet on gnome, unity [19:30] Alahin: Do you have any gui software installed? [19:30] underplay, haven't heard of one [19:30] pavlos, ah - xfce is still gtk2 [19:30] which explains why it doesn't work [19:31] seems to be python based when I launched it [19:31] vfw I had, but I removed it. At least I think i did [19:31] ObrienDave: I might make one [19:31] underplay, sounds cool [19:31] Alahin: Yea, probably something left over from that [19:31] my problem is that applications like mupen64plus don't scale the cpu properly [19:31] therefore I need to alter the cpu governor from on-demand to performance (otherwise it'll be stuck at 800mhz) [19:31] vfw is there an easy way to check if I have anything left for a gui? [19:32] carbon13 just noticed that now if i try to shut down it takes me to the logout/lock options [19:33] quants, lets start from square one ... otherwise we won't solve anything [19:34] Alahin: Not sure really... [19:34] hi guys. what can be the problem if my pc dont wake up after putting at sleep mode? [19:34] ubuntu 12.04.5 is fantastic [19:35] Surkow|laptop, there is an "xfapplet" plugin for xfce4, which lets me use gnome applets as plugins. [19:35] oh, neat [19:36] Alahin: My guess is that it's going to sleep or hybernation mode. [19:36] If I am locally It still responds [19:36] bazzzb: it worked. Was the USB legacy mode.. [19:36] Alahin: And that would be due to screensaver software. [19:36] pavlos, maybe I can also get my system monitor applet :D [19:36] Alahin: power save [19:36] Thumpxr: nice [19:37] vfw: it is just the networking that stops. The local commandline still works, and I cannot ping from that computer to the internet either. [19:38] Surkow|laptop, sure, ... do or do not. there is no try :) [19:39] bazzzb: will install tomorrow, first I need to repartition my drive [19:39] hmm, XfApplet isn't available in the applet list [19:40] maybe logging in out will solve it [19:40] needed to reboot anyways [19:40] brb [19:42] ObrienDave, sorry can't install any software - because of that error [19:42] Alahin: Ok, good, (more clues). [19:42] ObrienDave, thanks anyway ... I'll just try it tomorrow [19:43] Alahin: Does it every come back up? (How do you recover from it?) [19:43] vfw: it also happens while streaming from that computer (so technicly when it is bussy) [19:43] only if I reboot [19:43] I have waited a few hours [19:43] skaserer, ok, sorry. better luck [19:43] Alahin: service networking restart does not do it? [19:44] Alahin: Have you looked at the output of ifconfig ? [19:44] vfw: somehow when I do that the whole server stops responding and I am forced to turn it off and on with the power button [19:44] Alahin: (... during the outage ..) [19:45] Alahin: When you do what __________? [19:45] vfw: the ifconfig shows the correct Ip addresses [19:45] vfw: when I do the service networking restart [19:46] Alahin: SO when it's down, ifconfig shows the IP? [19:46] vfw: that is correct [19:46] Alahin: route -n #When down, does it show the router's IP as default gw? [19:47] Alahin: ping localhost #When down, can you ping it's own NIC? === Waarschuwing is now known as xBytez [19:47] I will check, but also the local network does not work. The ping to the local router didn't work either. For the ping to localhost I cannot remember. I will have to wait untill it does it again. [19:48] Alahin: It is interesting (a good clue) that it locks up when you issue command ifconfig [19:48] Alahin: Is the system fully updated? [19:49] anything I can do about dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.PermissionsInvalid: The permission of the setuid helper is not correct ? [19:49] Alahin: If not, do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade [19:49] Yes, I always keep this up to date with the latest LTS (it is a server at home) [19:49] I just updated my system via apt-get update / upgrade and now wlan as well as audio is gone [19:49] https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/foundations-bugs/2013-October/168569.html says it's a confirmed bug >.< [19:50] Alahin: Is it on a static IP? [19:50] vfw: yes [19:50] wow, no wonder, my setup is broken. [19:50] Alahin: Could be a hardware problem. Try another NIC [19:51] vfw: I have a different network card on it, I can just copy paste the config to that interface to test? [19:52] Fohlen: What version of Ubuntu are you on? [19:52] Hello, is it possible to compile C code with C++ codH [19:52] 14.10 [19:52] Timoty, yeah, it's possible [19:52] * agoodyer sends his first message using irssi [19:53] vfw: dpkg --configure -e did rerung depmod which was failed at some way [19:53] now it's running again [19:53] looool. [19:54] Fohlen: apt-cache policy software-properties-gtk #What does that say, (what version)? [19:55] vfw: works again, the kernel building was failed during the process apparently [19:55] strange. [19:55] Fohlen: What? Are you saying you have it fixed? [19:56] Fohlen: (Not sure what you are trying to tell us...) [19:56] vfw: Ok, I have switched over on another network card. For the other network card, would it be possible to disable it permanantly or should I just make sure it is not in the interfaces file? [19:57] if it's not in the interfaces file, it won't come up [19:57] or if it's disabled in network manager [19:57] (depending on which method you are using [19:57] Alahin: You shouldn't have to dissable it, you could, but I don't think it will matter. [19:58] vfw: ok, thanks for your time and support. If you will hear nothing from me it has worked. [19:58] Alahin: Okie Dokie [19:58] nj [19:59] no offense to you, but I hope that is the case :D [19:59] lo all :) [20:00] looking for a tool to identify what service is riunnin on a remote port [20:00] Netstat [20:00] nmap didn't get it [20:00] netstat for local machine [20:00] (netstat -plunt ftw!) [20:01] i have a box here with TCP/443 open and accepting connections (well, SYN/ACK ing) [20:01] but not doing HTTP, SSH or anything like that [20:01] so I was wondering of there was a service discovery toll other than nmap [20:01] tool* [20:02] woleium: You are looking for a service that is running on a *remote* port? [20:02] yes === james is now known as Guest70067 [20:02] network discovery (white hat) [20:02] woleium: Not sure what you mean by that. [20:03] woleium: Services run on local ports, not remote ports. [20:03] lsof -i TCP:80 [20:04] relpte IP address [20:04] remote* [20:04] on the network [20:04] on a box i dont have shell access to [20:04] woleium: Ok, I think you will have to be more specific (give more detail). [20:04] whats wrong with nmap then? [20:04] nmap soesnt recognise it [20:05] woleium: We don't either [20:05] You want to identify what kind of service is running on a specific port? [20:05] so it has a good firewall :-) [20:05] so i was wondering if there was a better tool with more updated signatures/ fingerprints [20:05] woleium: nmap just checks against the services file iirc, it doesn't probe the port to see what it is using. [20:05] Pici: yes it does [20:05] if you ask it [20:06] hello [20:06] woleium: http://nmap.org/book/man-version-detection.html [20:06] thanks Segfault_ but I've tried nmap and it doen;t have a signature for this service [20:06] so i was wondering if there was a better tool [20:09] woleium: what port is it running on and what kind of server? Most services use default ports [20:09] woleium: You could always go old-school and telnet to it. [20:10] hmm [20:10] what service are you trying to probe for? [20:10] he is trying te whitehat-hack a 443 port [20:10] te-to [20:11] hello [20:11] Perhaps this would be more on-topic for ##security to help with? [20:11] hi paul__ [20:12] + [20:13] Segfault_: genii: it's a chubb edwards alarm system ,and it's running on TCP/443 [20:13] it tried telent [20:13] nothing - it'swaiting forhte correct input [20:14] woleium: If the server has port 443 open and not responding to http requests I guess there is something wrong with it [20:14] nothing wrong with it [20:14] just not using HTTPS [20:14] are you sure you dont get a http 404 or something? [20:14] Absolutely [20:14] how about: openssl s_client -connect IP-ADDRESS:443 [20:14] My guess is it's a proprietory protocol that they are using on $$# so it doesn't get blocked [20:15] 443^ [20:15] need to capture some traffic i guess... [20:15] Hello, I'm experiencing a serious Ubuntu problem right now. After a freez during a routine update, I force restarted my Ubuntu 14.04 OS and now all my windows are continuously blinking. Restarting doesn't solve the problem at all [20:15] Seems related with compiz [20:16] How can I check my packages integrity? [20:16] Ilmen, did you try to continue/fix that updates? try in terminal: sudo apt-get install -f [20:16] Ilmen: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [20:17] thanks, I'll try this [20:18] I guess the freeze occurred while the updates were installed [20:18] restarting unity lead to some logic error, and restarding didn't fix anything === ubuntu is now known as Guest34365 [20:21] Ilmen: That doesn't actually check the integrity, it checks for new updates. The debsums package allows checking packages, but must be installed before any changes happen. [20:21] Ilmen: Actually, not sure about that last part. [20:22] woleium: Page 5 of http://en.chubbedwards.com/Documents/AFx%20Director%20Users%20Guide%204.7.pdf would indicate 443 is the port which is the "Chubb Director" server port [20:22] hey anybody here use json-schema with python? im trying to figure out how to use refs [20:22] "E: dpkg has been interrupted. It is necessary to use "sudo dpkg --configure -a" for correcting the problem" [20:22] stoogenmeyer: #python [20:22] Ilmen, sounds good, perform that command. [20:23] ok [20:23] OerHeks: oh, the problem is fixed now! [20:23] Thanks you =) [20:23] have fun :-) [20:24] Didn't expect the fix to be so quick :) [20:25] Thanks for you support ^^ === WhiteWolf is now known as WhiteWolf|AWAY [20:26] woleium: Additionally, later in the document, it states that the protocol being used there is "HSC-IP" through which it is apparently able to authenticate and then open a control interface to this port [20:27] genii: HSC-IP eh... [20:27] hmm [20:27] thank you! [20:30] i have funny network problem. please tell me number of ubuntu.com like opendns is 208.67.222.222 [20:30] Hi guys. in order to remove ecryptfs from my home folder, I have backed up my home folder, deleted it from a second user account, uninstalled ecryptfs, removed my old home folder and copied it back over with the .ecryptfs folder. I can log in fine and everything seems to be ok except that I do often encounter "Permission denied" errors when doing some commands, though they worked before. How can I get back the necessary permissions for all my s [20:30] tuff? I am admin of course. And I guess its just a matter of chown or chmod, but I am not too familiar with it. [20:31] in other words, which command would I have to run to get back all privileges for my user account on everything in /home/username ? [20:31] woleium: Yer welcome. [20:32] joumetal: 91.189.94.156 [20:32] Wryness: something like this should do "sudo echo chown -R /home/$USER $USER" [20:32] Wryness: something like this should do "sudo chown -R /home/$USER $USER" [20:32] thanks bazzzb [20:32] Wryness: how'd you move it back? [20:33] the second one... the first one was me testing it on my computer :) [20:33] via cp [20:33] Wryness: via cp as the user in question? [20:33] two times the username? [20:33] Wryness: If you used sudo cp files will be owned by root [20:33] no, as another user, otherwise i couldnt have been logged in and done the job (as my home directory was temporarily deleted ) [20:33] echo in here [20:34] Wryness: do they show as your original user in the backup you made? [20:34] so the command would be sudo chown -R /home/wryness wryness ? === mike is now known as Guest84902 [20:34] Wryness: yes, but you could do it with the $USER in there and it'd fill it in for you :) [20:34] uhm, not sure, how can I check that? [20:34] ls -l [20:35] Wryness: ls -l would work [20:35] yeah, they show as my original user [20:35] (just did ls -l) [20:35] Wryness: okay, you should probably use cp -a [20:35] or rsync -apv [20:35] to copy with permissions preserved [20:35] I already copied it back over so I guess its too late now, but I'lll remember that for the future [20:35] rsync is better, it resumes [20:35] mm, well [20:36] Wryness: What commands are giving you the "permission denied" ? [20:36] in that case you can chown -R, but keep that backup in case your permissions get boned [20:36] for example launching the tor browser (which is stored in my home directory) [20:37] chown: invalid user: ‘/home/wryness' [20:38] (output of the chown -R /home/$USER $USER" command) [20:38] Wryness: sudo chown -R wryness: /home/wryness [20:39] that worked... but still "Permission denied" when trying to launch the program [20:39] HI :D [20:40] Same goes for other programs that I try to start via ./programname when they are in the home folder somewhere [20:40] Hi everyone, I'm running 14.04 and my System Settings only has 5 items: Language Support, Security & Privacy, Printers, Landcape Service, and Software & Updates. I'm trying to change my screen resolution. Is there a reason I wouldn't have a full settings panel? [20:40] everything that isnt saved in the home folder or in its subfolders works though, like Thunderbird and stuff... [20:41] david0m: which desktop environment are you using? [20:42] Wryness: paste the output of ls -l ./ProgramYouWantToRun === lily_ is now known as foodstamps [20:43] Wryness: I suspect the executable bits may have been reset during the cp operation [20:43] -rw------- 1 wryness wryness 7588 Sep 23 22:02 ./start-tor-browser [20:43] trism: Unity over Gnome [20:43] exit [20:44] Wryness: good read for understanding file permissions: http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions [20:44] Wryness: yep, no executable bit set, you'll need at least chmod 700 on it to run [20:44] so chmod 700 wryness: /home/wryness ... would be the right command? [20:44] david0m: do you have unity-control-center installed? apt-cache policy unity-control-center; [20:44] bazzzb: thanks, i guess i should indeed immerse myself into permissions some more in the future [20:45] but unfortunately i cannot open the link as long as i cannot launch my browser. lol === lily_ is now known as foodstamps- [20:45] trism: nope, that fixed it. Seems odd it wouldn't be installed to begin with. Thanks [20:46] david0m: you may have accidently removed a package it depends on, I've seen it happen before [20:51] Hi guys. I just moved a website from another server to an ubuntu server. Now I'm having a problem with file permission and ownership group. Can anyone give me a direction with this problem? [20:53] Wryness: Alternate use can be like: chmod +x filename [20:54] I just tried that on the particular script, but as that script required other scripts to be launchet work too well. I now did chmod -R /home/username and everything works fine. [20:54] Thank you all for your help :) [20:54] (will now read te link bazzzb gave me about file permissions) [20:56] How do you see which rsyslog version you have ?? [20:56] I am having an issue with my displays. Sometimes certain parts like text or other sections start shaking real bad. Not sure why? [20:56] PheLe: might want to try over in the server channel /join #ubuntu-server [20:57] If I resize the windows, it will stop [20:57] fedora_newb, what sort of display is that? [20:57] Eduard_Munteanu, both my laptop screen and external [20:57] So not CRTs. [20:58] external is connected via hdmi [20:58] Nope [20:58] After too much time playing road warrior, I just connected this notebook to a monitor on my office desk. I get the desktop, but not the open windows on the desk monitor, but I have no idea how to switch focus from the populated desktop on the notebook to the ununsed one on the desk monitor, the mouse is unable to drag a window off of the notebook display onto the other one.

[21:03] PheLe: Think about this and see if it might fix it: chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/* [21:04] mojtaba1: you need to think very carefully about if you want to install sometihng from a PPA [21:04] PheLe: THis assumes that your web site is completely within that tree. [21:04] ikonia: this is the link: https://launchpad.net/~dylanmccall/+archive/ubuntu/hamster-time-tracker-git-stable [21:04] ikonia: I want to install the stable version. I have installed it before though. [21:04] carbon13 are you online? [21:04] mojtaba1: the link makes no difference to me, it's up to you, but you need to think about this very carefully [21:04] ikonia: I want to update it to the latest version. [21:05] mojtaba1: after adding a ppa then either use your software updater to update the file listings prior to installing or use the following in a terminal. sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get [21:05] Hello, I have a function defined in a C program called __cyg_profile_func_enter, I use it to instrument my code in C programs. but when I compile it with a g++ I have a warning : warning: new declaration ‘void __cyg_profile_func_enter(void*, void*)’ [enabled by default], can you help me with warning? also I can generate some instrumentation file because of this warning.

[21:06] squinty: sudo apt-get [21:06] Hey guys - just setup Ubuntu Desktop on my spare machine. I'm trying to get my wireless adapter to work. I grabbed a driver that supposedly works for it (.inf file - which I'm guessing is a Windows driver). Apparently I need ndiswrapper tool installed though, and the only instructions I have are through apt-get - which won't work... because I don't have an internet connection [21:06] jhutchins: 14.04, latitude e6440, gnome; what drivers are you concerned with? [21:06] Solution apart from dragging my monitor and machine downstairs to my router with an ethernet cable? [21:06] tjbiddle, what's the make of the wireless adapter? [21:06] Netgear WNDA 3100 [21:07] hecatae: ^ [21:07] thankyou === AngryEgret is now known as AngryEgret_afk === AngryEgret_afk is now known as AngryEgret === MohammadAG_ is now known as MohammadAG [21:07] mojtaba1: and as others are pointing out to you, beware potential problems with ppa's. sorry that should have been sudo apt-get install [21:07] tjbiddle, v1 or v2? [21:07] hecatae: v2 [21:08] hi guys can you tell me how to do the ubuntu equivalent of a system restore [21:08] quants: you don't [21:08] quants: it's not the same as windows [21:08] ikonia [21:09] ikonia lol i know, its just gone nuts on me [21:09] jhutchins: lsmod shows: i915, i2c_algo_bit, drm_kms_helper, drm, video [21:10] tjbiddle, broadcom and I have seen lots of people give up on the adapter and replace with a different model [21:10] hecatae: Oh wonderful, lol [21:11] quants: copy backed up files to where you want them [21:11] tjbiddle, for example http://hire.chrisjlee.net/node/145 [21:11] quants: the install cd/usb should offer to install over the old install (if you have a seperate /home) === Owner_ is now known as Guest82651 [21:12] k1l_ will that kill all my files? === WhiteWolf|AWAY is now known as WhiteWolf [21:13] quants: well, i am not making a guarantee for that. so better have a backup of all important files [21:13] tjbiddle, v1 is an atheros chipset which works fine, v2 is broadcom and not nice [21:13] ya. back up anything you can't afford to lose. if it doesn't exist in 3 places it doesn't exist at all. [21:13] hesco: I don't know gnome very well, that kind of setting is often handled by xrandr/xrandrtray. [21:13] Is it possible to create a virtual wifi interface? [21:13] hecatae: Woo. Ah well, alright. Thanks for the research! Can you recommend a good wifi adapter that will support whatever I need for injection & sniffing? Will need one for my Kali VM anyhow - can just pop it in there when I'm not using it. [21:14] you may have to drag your pc down stairs and connect via etherenet to see if it will install the proprietary driver [21:14] I have a application that runs only if it detects an wifi interface [21:14] jhutchins: is there some key bindings I need to access the other desktop? [21:14] are the lsmod the drivers you were asking about? [21:14] tjbiddle: ndiswrapper is WAY obsolete. [21:14] cyberpolice [21:15] so far hillary's not-run has been a series of bungles [21:15] woops wrong chan [21:15] tjbiddle: if i remember correctly the kali web site makes wireless recommendations. (kali is OT here though) [21:15] hecatae: Meh - no rush. Just playing around setting up a pentest lab. Will throw this project on the backburner until I can get a new adapter. Thanks :) [21:15] tjbiddle, anything intel or atheros works well, i used to recommedn ralink as well but they seem to perform poorly these days [21:15] squinty: I'll poke on over there - just wanted to ask while in the convo. Thanks! [21:15] quants: You can do a system restore in Windows because Windows takes a kind of snapshot. You can do the same thing manually - make backups. [21:16] hecatae: Noted, great! [21:16] hesco: It's been about ten years since I last worked with multiple monitors on Linux, vague hints are the best I have. [21:16] quants, have you found your wifi? [21:17] can i email a short video clip to someone for a diagnosis? [21:17] tjbiddle: If you can get the pciid of the card here we might be able to locate the driver, which you could then download and install manually. [21:17] not yet [21:17] hesco: hey, can you take a screenshot and show us? [21:18] quants: Just describe it.

[21:19] jhutchins, tjbiddle it's a bcm4323 < notorious hard to get working [21:20] HideMe: see the android settings. and there should be a message when a usb is connected [21:21] lost my Kolourpaint left toolbar completely, how can I get it back?

On the nb, I have a console with 6 or 8 tabs where I code, I have a sylpheed email client running, and a chrome browser with 6 or so windows, each with multiple tabs. On the desktop monitor plugged into the side of the notebook, I have an empty gnome desktop, with the usual ubuntu icons displayed on the left, including for the ones which are running on [21:22] the nb.

[21:24] k1l_, Looks like this http://i.stack.imgur.com/NghI6.png [21:24] Hey guys, anyone here with a Microsoft Wireless Ergonomic 4000 keyboard? Can anyone help me set up the favorites keys? [21:25] I can't believe normal desktop ubuntu has so much support for my tablet! [21:25] hesco: hehe small world, I was watching the puppet conf earlier. A screenshot would give me a quick idea what's going on, but your description should be fine. Is the desktop monitor mirroring the nb display? [21:25] HideMe: can you test another usb port? like usb2 instaed of usb3 or vice versa? [21:25] Hooray [21:25] besides having the openn windows [21:25] HideMe, I can't open the images from the android folder, either. I have been copying them to another folder in the PC [21:25] k1l_, Done that too. :) [21:26] vitimiti, okay, copy works..... but what a pain. :) [21:26] hecatae: Awesome. Thanks again for the research! [21:26] HideMe, yeah, it's a pain, I told you in case you needed it now. I haven't found a solution [21:26] HideMe: what android is this? [21:27] hesco: i've had a similar problem before, where the resolution of an attached monitor is so large relative to the small laptop display, that I can't see things like my xfce panels at the bottom. I've worked around the problem with the program, 'arandr'. [21:27] k1l_, Samsung Galaxy s4 Android 4.4? [21:28] Hi, has anyone figured how to set up nvidia optimus with multiple displays? I can't set it up on ubuntu which is what's preventing me from using it. I've set it up on arch linux but ubuntu doesn't seem to be working :( [21:28] quants: dont do that [21:29] thanks anyway. [21:30] erp2themax: I do have higher resolution on the nb, than on the desktop monitor. The desktop monitor seems to display the same icons for open applications as the nb, but an empty desktop besides them. Most irritating is that I have no idea how to change the focus to the desktop monitor so I can open those applications to that desktop, or to get work done there. [21:30] HideMe: hmm, well. with 4.4. that should work. maybe that is some s4 specific stuff? [21:30] hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu on a hp pavillion ZD8000 laptop, it was a high end rig back in the mid 2000's [21:31] 14.04 is what I'm using, but it refuses to get the ethernet running and it doesn't recognise the wifi card with the "live boot" option [21:33] Gear_: does sudo lspci -nn show the card? [21:34] it won't install [21:34] so I don't know [21:34] hi there, is lubuntu a good o.s to try for noobs cus im new at linux and im using lubuntu but i dont know anything about it [21:34] I usually use mageia or opensuse [21:34] jhutchins: According to some specs I found on that model, it's a Broadcom 4318 [21:35] but I'm a beginner/novice, and I don't know much about ubuntu yet, it's debian based? [21:35] Also has problemmatic i915 chipset [21:35] hesco: sounds like your desktop monitor is using a separate x display [21:35] *x window [21:35] problematic? how do I install ubuntu then? [21:36] Gear_ can iget malware like windows does? and explain why if you can please :D [21:36] Gear_: Can you run the livecd and get internet by the wired connection? [21:36] I can run the live usb, but I can't get wired ethernet [21:36] Codplayer: lubuntu is fine. do you have any issues with that? [21:36] it won't connect and I don't know why [21:37] Codplayer: please type /topic and follow the links. :) [21:37] I'm doing another windows install and that connected to ethernet immediately [21:38] ethernet is basically the fallback "automatically works" option for everything but I'm not sure why it's not detecting with ubuntu 14.04 [21:38] kill_ nop [21:38] Codplayer: so be happy that its working, instead of asking what possibly could not work :) [21:38] squinty: where can i learn how to use a linuxo.s? [21:38] Gear_: Odd, since that model has Realtek 8139 which is well supported adapter under linux. [21:39] Gear_, that's very odd as there are several guides on the web advising ubuntu 6.06 worked perfectly on it [21:40] Gear_: if you haven't already tried it, swap the lan cable from the Windows installing unit to the problem computer. could be faulty cable [21:40] it seems very odd to me [21:40] Codplayer: what do you want to learn? you should just use that like you need it. if you have a specific question we can help you. [21:40] it's the same cable [21:40] after upgrading today "we are unable to build the nvidia kernel module" - is that a known problem? [21:40] after I'm finished with this windows install I am going to try again, I made the usb using "unetbootin", is this recommended? [21:41] kll_ :Thanks :J [21:41] Gear_: yeah, that tool should still be fine, there's several options [21:41] Gear_: used it for years with minimum troubles installing various linux's others milage might vary though [21:41] either way I could "try" ubuntu but couldn't install it, it just didn't detect the ethernet [21:42] I know, the only problem I've found online is that it won't detect the wireless [21:42] that it won't detect the ethernet is very strange to me [21:42] Gear_: you can also check options/tutorials at pendrivelinux.com [21:42] it booted up fine and I was able to open all the settings and everything [21:42] Gear_: I think another windows liveusb tool is something like 'linux live loader' or something.. [21:42] and it installed up to a certain point then froze [21:43] Gear_: linux live, lili usb [21:43] well I could use DD but the usb seemed to be totally fine [21:43] Gear_: will another distro (eg pupppy linux or opensus for example) detect the connection? [21:43] yeah, even windows does [21:43] all of those do === sammy is now known as Guest24400 [21:44] should I try writing the usb with something else maybe? it seems a weird problem and far too specific [21:44] oh and the upgrade was to 14.04 [21:44] Gear_: md5sum check on the iso? [21:44] you mean pacific right? [21:44] http://goo.gl/cnARZi [21:44] actually I did the "usb check" thing [21:45] it checked the installation media and said it was fine [21:45] and /tmp/selfgz3919/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.88/kernel/nv-i2c.c:327:14: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be osstatus = i2c_del_adapter(pI2cAdapter); [21:45] it's very strange, it just won't connect [21:45] Gear_, did ip addr show give anything useful? [21:45] Gear_: if it's loading the image off the drive into something usable, then it shouldn't be a matter of what you used to load it on. [21:45] at the moment I'm installing windows on that computer [21:45] Gear_: should do the other too. try a torrent rather than http download if you decide to try and redownload another iso [21:46] I'm going to try installing ubuntu from windows, maybe that will have better luck? [21:46] right now everything is working [21:46] not sure what that even means [21:46] !ops | blemi [21:46] blemi: Help! Channel emergency!

[21:47] Gear_: media check and image check are not the same thing. You could be installing a bad image onto a perfectly fine medium. [21:47] bazzzb: he already quit [21:47] 12.04.5 ? why would that work over 14 [21:47] does wubi still exist in a current release? [21:47] SchrodingersScat: Unfortunately [21:47] my word [21:47] bazzzb: They already left [21:48] does wubi exist? it was very broken last time i used it, and it was not included in the iso [21:48] hecatae: just make a real isntall [21:48] k1l_, i have, 12.04.5 and it is lovely [21:48] k1l_: genii: a ip ban still possible [21:49] network manager says no connection, ifconfig returns only lo with no eth0 [21:49] Right now i just added add-hotplug eth0 to interfaces.Still networkmanager says no connection. [21:49] waterslash, try ifconfig -a [21:49] bazzzb: difficult on a dynip. lets see if that user comes back. [21:49] bazzzb: If they come again with the same IP it may be considered [21:50] ok thanks I'll try 12.04.5 [21:50] win 7 ultimate is working fine on this computer though [21:50] which is odd [21:50] it has 2gb of ram [21:50] Gear_, what's the pid and vid in windows? [21:51] Gear_: again you should check the md5sum of the iso. if it is damaged then your usb install is also damaged [21:51] the what?

[21:53] waterslash: try another cable, check to make sure network card is not turned off in BIOS [21:53] erp2themax: that is a never mind. Although my desktop monitor is physically to the left of my notebook; it is virtually to the right of it. When I moved the mouse in the other direction, it just worked. Guess I am in business now. Watching Gene Kim report on the DevOps report on the nb, getting work done on the desktop monitor !!! [21:53] spearhead:i can ping my router if that says anything at all.

Anyway, great! Glad to hear it's working. [21:55] About maybe twice a day my network stops responding - unable to ping router from the local machine at 192.168.0.12 (but another local machine can ping the router). If I ifconfig up/down and add the default route back to the router everything works fine again ... until the next time it happens. The machine at .12 is ubuntu 12.04 - the other local machine is ubuntu 14.04. The remote machine is centOS 5. I control all 3. I have an ssh [21:55] connection to each machine from .12, that sits in place all day - unless I'm forced to restart the network as mentioned. [21:56] I am using ubuntu 14.04 64 bit my issue is with openssh-server. I forward local and remote ports using the L and R switches like so: 80:192.168.1.2:8080 80:192.168.1.2:8080 Even with oidentd and dnsmasq installed when I try to connect to my ip address i cannot load the page with my web browser [21:57] apb1963, does mii-tool / dmesg report any link changes or anything? [21:57] apb1963: Could be a lot of things, including hardware. [21:57] apb1963: sounds like your hosts file [21:57] when I ran xrandr (no arguments), it blinked both monitors and displayed stats for both [21:57] Eduard_Munteanu: no MII interfaces found [21:57] apb1963: It has nothing to do with your hosts file. [21:58] KP34: uh..... hunh? [21:58] but do not know it well enough to manipulate things. [21:58] apb1963: Anything in dmesg when it drops? [21:58] jhutchins: yeah, hosts file sounded strange [21:58] hesco: yeah that's xrander. try arandr. [21:58] for the moment, I'm happy to be able to have two screens running [21:58] *xrandr [21:59] Has anyone successfully done a WiFi tether with an Android phone??? [21:59] apb1963: If nothing else you could just be proactive and restart networking periodically. [21:59] skinux: which way? [21:59] hesco: yeah, that alone is a good improvement :) cheers [21:59] As in using the phone to give internet to a laptop [21:59] apb1963: i would double check your resolv.conf [21:59] skinux: Yes, lots of people. [21:59] I have yet to do this successfully. [21:59] jhutchins: I have a cron job setup to reboot the network every morning... still goes down randomly an extra time. [21:59] #ubuntu-offtopic [21:59] jhutchins: syslog says: kernel: [1814573.567815] UDP: bad checksum. From 2xx.1xx.2xx.xx4:15380 to 192.168.0.12:5086 ulen 180 I'm seeing lots of these. [22:00] skinux: yep, very easy. but the big part is the android offering the wifi. the ubuntu doesnt care if its connected to a android or to a router [22:00] I haven't been able to find any tethering apps that worked, including AziLink [22:00] [22:00] Eduard_Munteanu: syslog says: kernel: [1814573.567815] UDP: bad checksum.

[22:00] skinux: well. if you use cyanogenmod that is build in. for android app offerings best is to ask the android guys [22:01] I've also so far recently been unable to disconnect from home wireless in order to try a tether again. [22:02] skinux, I use the built in tethering options on my android, I usually tether via usb so it charges my android at the same time [22:02] Cyanogenmod is a phone root isn't it? [22:02] Spearhead:But it also returned something about Udevd, are you familiar with udev rules or something?? [22:02] skinux: custom rom. [22:02] cyanogenmod is a rom built using AOSP [22:02] My USB port on my phone isn't exactly reliable to use for tethering. [22:02] And I have no idea how to put a custom rom on my phone. [22:02] Timoty: Do a search in your code for cyg_profile... you may find that you have something that doesn't match up [22:03] KP34: doublecheck it for what? [22:04] when my network goes down its either hosts file or resolv.conf [22:04] just making a suggestion [22:04] KP34: what would I be looking for? [22:04] no lie...where can I meer an ubuntu chick? [22:04] or Mint chick [22:04] :-) [22:04] just as long as they are there with the proper info [22:04] oops [22:04] *meet [22:05] nameserver should be your router or modem ip address generally 192.168.1.254 [22:05] if you cant ping anything but you still have an ip address [22:05] JuneBUG: this is a ubuntu technical support channel. please keep it clear for that [22:05] :-( [22:05] I know [22:06] I am using ubuntu 14.04 64 bit my issue is with openssh-server. I forward local and remote ports using the L and R switches like so: 80:192.168.1.2:8080 80:192.168.1.2:8080 Even with oidentd and dnsmasq installed when I try to connect to my ip address i cannot load the page with my web browser. What is the problem with NAT in this issue? [22:06] KP34: if I can't ping the router, how would the name server make any difference? [22:06] apb1963: do you currently have an ip address when you are experiencing the issue? [22:07] or did you lose the ip address also [22:07] Hello, i would like to ask for help: why after i have updated my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS it does not finish log in, i got stuck in a orange background with no options. the instalation is stock, except for vmware workstation 10, nvidia drivers, and bleachbit. Please Help me i need to use ubuntu, thanks in advance. [22:07] if you still have an ip then your DNS settings is located in those two files [22:07] Andrew1: test the guest account [22:07] Andrew1: you need to login to the account [22:08] hi. got a wierd problem trying to format a drive. Installed 2 new hard drives into my pc. copied data over from old drive, all working fine. now want to wipe old hard drive to use as bakup space. gparted won't let me delete or umount the root partition of the old drive. i'm definitely booting from the new drive, but it's like it's mounted the partition as root somehow. really wierd [22:08] ok i will try guest but what is the next step to restore my account? [22:08] KP34: That's an interesting question, I haven't checked to verify I have one, but as it's set static I presume I do. [22:09] Andrew1: that depends on the result of testing the guest session [22:09] jhutchins: Eduard_Munteanu: syslog says: kernel: [1814573.567815] UDP: bad checksum.

[22:12] there needs to be a ubuntu-network and ubuntu-install and ubuntu-video specific channel [22:12] KP34: nope [22:13] would some kind person be willing to look at my /var/log/nvidia-installer.log at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8413911/ [22:13] What happens with dhclient when I release my current DHCP lease? Will it reach out and request a new IP address at some interval? [22:13] what command are you using to install networking when you boot your machine if you dont mind me asking [22:13] the spec says it attempts a new dhcp req for another ip assignment [22:13] i.e. 3 separate channels focused on each of those areas alone [22:14] I released an IP address on a server and obviously couldn't access it over the network. I came back 60+ minutes later and could access it, but I hadn't manually requested a new IP address. [22:14] networking is normally automatically polled when you boot ubuntu [22:14] watching brothers kids.Fuck ill be back [22:14] seanz: the intricacies of DHCP are outlined in the relevant RFC document [22:14] service
