sarinki'm trying to ssh to an external server over port 443 (other servers over default port work fine). i cannot do this from my local network. i know it works outside my network, because if i tether on my phone, i can ssh to it. what do i need to enable on my own router so i can ssh out over 443?00:09
ObrienDaveSachiru, and when the SSD dies in 6 months, you have to reinstall everything. buy a cheap HDD, years of reliability00:09
daftykinsv: got a question?00:09

xpcjx87Hi, I just have a simple question.00:20
daftykinsxpcjx87: me too, what is your question?00:21
ObrienDavewe won't know until you ask ;)00:21
xpcjx87Regarding Ubuntu Studio, how do I easily change the computer name? -OR- What is the root password on a fresh install?00:21
Sa[i]nTThe root password should be whatever you made it when you installed it.00:22
ObrienDave!root | xpcjx8700:23
ubottuxpcjx87: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo00:23
xpcjx87I didn't set any root password.00:23
vI have a lot of questions, Is Universe finite? What happens when we die? Does alien inteligent life exist? If universe has an end what happens when we reach that? How Universe started?00:23

unkn-errorbut for example I have this user "U" and user U will do "sudo su" in terminal/konsole. Now, normally the Display Manager will NOT allow a root login, but if that user will do a "sudo su" will the root be enabled, and if the Display Manager is configured to accept root logins will do a root login into the Desktop Env?00:35

unkn-errorso root is enabled in my box?00:38
daftykinsgarrie: support questions in here00:38
garrieI have a support question, worry not.00:38
spearheadunkn-error, no, if there was a long random character line like on the ui line then the root user would be enabled00:39
xpcjx87Okay. Done. I did [sudo su] put in my password, typed [hostname X551MA] then typed [hostname] to check.00:39
unkn-erroroh, so here is the sublime difference, " Switching into root, sure. Logging in as root"00:39
garrieI'm in the UK, and therefore us a UK keyboard layout. However, during boot up (i.e. while logging in and while putting in encryption pass), the keyboard defaults to US00:39
xpcjx87See? A Simple answer like that can be done easily.00:39
garrieThis makes my password, etc, a pain in the ass to enter.00:39
Sachiruspearhead, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo <-- Apparently you cannot log in as root directly00:39
garrieHow to make it recognise uk layout at all stages?00:39
SachiruAllow me to correct my statement, you cannot log in as root directly00:39
spearheadSachiru, I have done it many times...00:39
ObrienDaveright00:40
SachiruI'm wrong then00:40
k1l_on standard ubuntu root account got no password so you cant login. on ubuntu you use sudo if you need root rights.00:41
ObrienDaveok spearhead enlighten us as to how you login as root00:41
spearheadafter you enable the root password you can then at the login screen choose to type in a user name and password00:41
k1l_spearhead: and that is not the ubuntu way. so it doesnt matter in here00:42
spearheadk1l_ whether or not it is the ubuntu way, it can be done, I do not recommend it... but it can be done00:43
k1l_*sigh*00:43
spearheadk1l_, one thing I am frustrated with the ubuntu community about is not informing people about stuff that can be done... whether or not it is recommended... let people make their own decisions00:46
Sachiruspearhead, that is a dangerous thing to do00:46
daftykinsthey can find that info out for themselves, we stick to policy so that people don't break things.00:47
SachiruI.E. I can inform a user that if he wants to uninstall a program he can do rm -rf /usr/bin00:47
spearheadthen at least done tell people that something can't be done... just ignore it00:47
SachiruIt's not recommended00:47
spearhead*dont00:47
k1l_spearhead: ok, then stay in here and help every beginner who messed with the rootaccount. but since you (like the other linux-gurus before) will not do this please stick to the ubuntu way in here.00:47

sysop2how many files can I copy at once with cp?  I am on 64bit 14.0400:48
SachiruI only wish that Ubuntu fixed it so that running sudo -s is not necessary for manipulating KSM parameters00:48
spearheadI tell everyone I talk to about it that using the root acount is not recommended and they should use sudo for everything...00:48
unkn-errorwhich is the difference between sudo /etc/init.d/ssh reload/restart?00:49
Sachirusudo echo "2500" > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/sleep_millisecs does not work, I actually have to sudo -s and echo from there00:49

larsantosHello, will lubuntu or xubuntu run on a netbook with an intal celeron M at 900MHz and 1 GB memory RAM 9" screen with 1024x6oo pixels? Assunming all the other stuff work, I'm just sense the optionS I have01:33
SachiruDo the sed again. Most likely there's a typo there somewhere01:33
SachiruAh wait01:34
SachiruI see it now01:34
SachiruTypo indeed01:34
SachiruRun the following command instead: sudo sed 's/trusty/saucy/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list01:34
SachiruFile should be yannubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list, not yannubuntu-ubuntu-boot-repair-trusty.list01:35
SachiruThe rest of the commands should work01:35
ForTheWinno error msg this time, but no msg either, just gave me a new prompt01:36
ForTheWinso i think it worked?01:36
Miaurielhey everyone. I'd like to make a minimal ubuntu distro for myself using the ubuntu-mini-remix. does anyone know of a walkthrough I can follow to build one without a program like UCK or ubuntu builder?01:38
ForTheWinSachiru: ok recommended repair is done. rebooting now, Thanks in advance i will be back here either way01:39
huliohi guys, stupid quick question, should i remove ubuntu and use windows? i can't do much in ubuntu01:41
hulioshould i?01:41
oolooThat is up to you I guess01:41
huliocause i'm not really sure what to do with ubuntu right now01:41
oolooBut you really can do a lot in Ubuntu, as well as any other linux distro01:41
ooloowell, what do you want to do with it?01:41
Sa[i]nTRun ubuntu in a VM first.01:41
huliolike what?01:41
ramsudharsanLinux is much better than windows01:41
oolooI mean, you can use it for office work, development, browsing the web, etc01:42
ramsudharsanhttp://whylinuxisbetter.com/01:42
ooloothere are a lot of advantages to using linux.01:42
ramsudharsan+1 @ooloo01:42
ramsudharsanlooks like the page has been removed01:42
Sa[i]nTooloo, run it in a VM.01:42
oolooI think the worst part is just dealing with compatibility with things that weren't intended for a linux OS in the first place, which is actually a weird complain to have01:42
Sa[i]nTUse it for a while before replacing Windows.01:42
hulioso do windows and ubuntu in vmware?01:43
oolooSa[i]nT, and there are always virtual machines.01:43
Sa[i]nTYeah. I use Virtualbox01:43
huliocause right now i dont know what am i suppose to do with ubuntu...unless u name 1 good thing about it.01:43
hulioi use vmware workstation01:43
ramsudharsanhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:org9q5jF9okJ:www.whylinuxisbetter.net/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in01:43
ooloohulio, again, what do you want to do with ubuntu?01:43
Sa[i]nTYou may want to use Ubuntu for a while before abandoning windows.01:43
huliook tell me what do you like about ubuntu?01:44
huliosomething u can do ?01:44
ramsudharsanI use Ubuntu x64 to make custom android roms for my devices01:44
huliooh01:44
ramsudharsanAnd I make kernels too01:44
huliowhat else is important to u?01:44
hulioi see01:44
ramsudharsanLinux esp. ubuntu provides many sets of tools req. for development01:45
huliohow about for regular normal person?01:45
ooloohulio, okay, I like that fact that the environment is intuitive, I can customize a lot more of it, it feels sleeker, and other things01:45
rwwhulio: if you don't have an actual problem with Ubuntu that we can help you with, try #ubuntu-offtopic01:45
ramsudharsanAfter using linux, you will find the crappiness of windows01:45
oolooWell, the customization of the OS is an outright understatement01:45
SachiruSorry had a call01:45
huliocan ubuntu get virus?01:46
hulioor spyware?01:46
rww!viruses01:46
ubottuAntivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus01:46
oolooNot to mention the community for support of ubuntu/other linux distros is just so much better than windows. It's ridiculous.01:46
ooloohulio, I've never actually had spyware or viruses running linux01:46
oolooever01:46
Sa[i]nTGoing to Linux from Windows is an almost impossible move for someone who is not accustomed to Linux already.01:46
evitoubunut is only susceptible to low-level exploitations like Ebola01:46
Sa[i]nTYou'll have it a day and be reinstalling Windows.01:46
ramsudharsanWindows is closed source, no possible development and modifications and even no support01:46
sixequal1zeroSa[i]nT: I just did it01:47
hulioSa[i]nT, yes, that is exactly i feel01:47
hulioi have it a day then reinstall windows lol01:47
Sa[i]nTUse other Distros, really feel it out.01:47
ObrienDaveSa[i]nT, i made the jump 3 years ago. only keep Windows because of 2 programs i need to run occasionally01:47
ForTheWinSachiru: same error, it cannot find the UUID of my sda4 which is where i installed lubuntu, sudo blkid says it is the UUID but grub2 cannot find01:47
Sa[i]nTBecause there is no point in using Linux for just the sake of using Linux.01:47
ooloohulio, you might notice that most linux distros don't come prepackaged with virtually any anti-spyware or virus anything, because it just isn't as necessary01:47
B0bsF1shHow do I get a remote GUI session on my Windows box? I have. I have Xming installed. "X11Forwarding yes" in sshd_config. In PuTTY I have Enable X11 forwarding on with my IP address in the X display location box. I launch XLaunch, select one window, start a program, enter "xeyes -display localhost:0" - and then nothing happens.01:47
Sa[i]nTThat's like buying a ferrari and never going over 45mph01:48
ramsudharsanIts the right of every user to choose their own linux distro :P01:48
ramsudharsandistrowatch.com01:48
Sa[i]nTI frequent distrowatch.01:48
ooloohulio, that being said, ubuntu is actually not my favorite linux distro, but it's a really good place to start for someone who hasn't used linux.01:48
larsantoshey, anyone knows of a lubuntu or xubuntu spinn good for a 12 year old kid?01:48
ObrienDaveSa[i]nT, i use Linux because i loathe Windows, 'nuf said ;P01:48

Sa[i]nTMy main choice is Gentoo, lol.01:48
ObrienDavelarsantos, edubuntu01:48
ooloolarsantos, yeah, that sounds fine.01:48
ForTheWinSachiru: yes the same one i used to install lubuntu01:49
SachiruDunno if trolling or really does not know the use of Ubuntu01:49
oolooarch linux is pretty great.01:49
SachiruUbuntu is an OS, just like Windows. It does what Windows can do, just in a different way and with different tools.01:49
larsantosgreat, thanks ObrienDave  and ooloo01:49
Sa[i]nTArch is good.01:49
Sa[i]nTpacman breaks all the time for me.01:49
rww!ot01:49
ubottu#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!01:49
jesusaurusarch is unstable01:49
ForTheWinSachiru: oh i need help please, im mostly selftaught but still largely a noob01:49
oolooSa[i]nT, and that's why I favor slackware over arch01:49
ramsudharsanWell, arch is for core linux users01:50
Sa[i]nTI'll go back to the Ubuntu topic.01:50
ooloojesusaurus, it does emphasize that it's "bleeding edge"01:50
hulioooloo, i'm going to use linux for few more day01:50
hulioooloo, i do have vmware for linux to have windows01:50
jesusaurusold != stable01:50
ooloohulio, all right. I mean, it's your call. If it's not right for you, then it's not right for you. If it's the desktop environment you don't like, you should try different linux distros and see if there is one that is more your style.01:51
Sachiru@ForTheWin: How did you install? Direct to HDD or under Wubi?01:51
ooloohttp://distrowatch.com is a great resource for hunting down that sort of thing01:51
Sa[i]nTIs wubi still around? lol.01:51
ForTheWinSachiru: direct to HDD with this liveusb01:51
rwwSa[i]nT: it isn't officially supported these days01:51
ooloohulio, but I do wonder what you want out of Ubuntu, or any other OS for that matter.01:51
Sa[i]nTI haven't seen it in a while.01:51
SachiruForTheWin, Please run the following command, then paste the links you get here: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit01:52
ForTheWinthe UUID is supposed to point to where i put the primary ext4, right? which i mounted to /?01:52
ForTheWinSachiru: ok01:52

ooloohulio, that is good. There are many great native programs for linux.01:54

ForTheWinwhen i install lubuntu am i supposed to create primary ext4 first(mount /) then logical ext4(mount /home) then logical swap? in that order?01:56
Sa[i]nTit matters not the order.01:56
ObrienDavenero burner 4, $20? right. k3b works for me, free01:56
Sa[i]nTI do SWAP, then ROOT, then HOME01:56
m{a}zelwould have loved to be able to get Sabayon on here, or even on my laptop, but on the laptop I have two vid cards and it gets confused01:56
Sa[i]nTMake the root part bootable.01:56
ForTheWinSa[i]nT: because when i created ROOT first, the rest of my free space kept becoming UNUSABLE01:57
oolooouch01:57
ForTheWindoesnt the installer make it bootflagged automatically?01:57
oolooanyway I just said:01:57
oolooSa[i]nT, I wouldn't say that is accurate. My wife does none of those things, and loves linux. She runs elementary.01:57
Sachiru@ForTheWin Order doesnt' matter but it would have been nice if you put /boot in a separate partition01:57
ForTheWinfor some reason my hd has 3 partitions, a 100mb partition(made by windows?), the main windows partition, and the recovery partition01:58
Sa[i]nTooloo, I was using it in context from someone moving from Windows to Linux.01:58
oolooI have numerous friends who use linux and aren't developers or anything special. They don't seem to have problems.01:58
SachiruOkay, can you please run the following commands: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu01:58
ObrienDaveForTheWin, standard Win setup01:58
SachiruSorry, sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt/ubuntu01:59

prime2_hey gang - first time here. I've been reading for about 20 min to make sure I'm in the right place.03:21
prime2_I love ubuntu, but one thing drives me nuts. I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it?03:21
reisioprime2_: you reader you03:21
reisioprime2_: no, but many ones do03:21
Bashing-omprime2_: If you have an ubuntu support question, you are indeed at the right place.03:22
prime2_The nautilus window locks the name column to a very narrow width when in window mode.03:22
prime2_So narrow, in fact, that I can't read the name, especially for long files03:22
prime2_I can add or subtract columns as a workaround, but it's not ideal...03:23
daftykinsi've heard there's a really weird rule as to whether a column in Nautilus is resizable, something like the column beside it needs to have extra width03:23
daftykinsi don't remember though. try another file manager.03:24
reisiommm, I know how wto fix that in Thunar :)03:24
reisiohow_to*03:24
prime2_I installed nemo, but random crashes ensued03:24

reisioif that's your only problem with nautilus though, I'd just fix that03:26

reisioadriandroid: step 1) use app that supports cjk input03:31
hikenbootis there a simple program to take an install of ubuntu and create a live cd based on the customized install of ubuntu. I am trying to do the following. 1) Install Ubuntu. 2) Enable auto login to desktop 2.5) enable particular mac address 3) enable networking 4) pick up dhcp address 5) enable SSH 6) install vncserver 7) put password on vnc server 8) start vncserver 9) disable screen saver 10) wait for remote connection 11) run completely from ram03:31
ObrienDavestep 2) make sure it runs under wine. wait, that should be step #103:32

hikenbootSolarisBoy, should the things I listed be possible with livebuild?03:36
SolarisBoyit wont make a copy of a current - but it will use debootstrap to start from a base debian (or whatever) chroot03:37
SolarisBoythen you build up from there that + a preseed should allow you to what you want - you may even be able to use a preseed for the majority of it03:37

SolarisBoyhikenboot: another thing you may want to look at constructing a custom initramfs - but that also may be a little more difficult as im not sure of any applications that build them out for you, so you'd be responsible for making sure any services running in initramfs have the proper libs/drivers loaded03:42
hikenbootthanks SolarisBoy, I was hoping I might get away with this being not too difficult or time consuming. I am doing this so I can recover partially failed bios installs that prevent the video from working properly03:44

gtristanAny idea why NetworkManager runs /sbin/dnsmasq on ubuntu 12.04 ?04:25
vexati0nis there a way to use the 127.0.0.1 as localhost instead of 127.0.1.1, you know, like Linux has done for 25 years just fine until canonical decided to put DNSmasq in there for whatever reason?04:26
gtristanIt seems to not cause problems, but is totally pointless, I just went though installing an actual dhcp server to provide internet to a subnet on my eth0, and here I have this dnsmask running for no reason04:26
jr_Hey guys. How do I partition using terminal?04:26
ObrienDavejr_, parted04:26

ObrienDaveyes04:27
kris__jr, is that disk partition ?04:27
ObrienDaveshort for PARTition EDitor04:27
jr_kris__: yes04:28
sacarlson1vexati0n: as far as I know any ip with 127.x.x.x will still be localhost04:28
kris__jr, interesting04:28
jr_kris__: why is that?04:29
vexati0nsacarlson1: "localhost" is a hostname just like any other hostname, and it can only resolve to a single IP address. in Ubuntu, that IP is 127.0.1.1, which breaks various programs that bind to 127.0.0.1 (because that's what localhost has been since IP was invented a billion years ago)04:31
ObrienDavea billion??? thought it was only a million or so04:31
reisioa bit ago04:32
histoObrienDave: Al Gore invented them a few years back04:32
vexati0nno it's fully a billion. new carbon dating techniques, etc.04:32
kris__Jr, never did partition using command line04:32
ObrienDaveoh yea, forgot about Al Gore ;P04:32
jr_kris__: ah04:33
jr_I did it befoore -but I forgot how04:33
ObrienDave2 million, at least04:33
vexati0nthey found cave paintings done by cavelizards where they were calculating subnets the hard way.04:33
sacarlson1vexati0n: well if I put 127.3.3.3 in my browser I still end up at the same place that localhost takes me,  I guess you can still track the ip usage in iptables to verify what took you there04:33
vexati0nsure, but what i mean is... i have a program (brackets editor) that listens specifically on 127.0.0.1, but then points requests to "http://localhost:9234" for various things. as a result, its process runs fine but those requests fail because they're heading to 127.0.1.1, not 127.0.1.104:35
gtristanoddly, on my (safely old pre-spyware ubuntu installation)... I have localhost resolving correctly to 127.0.0.1... *and*, I have my actual hostname resolving to 127.0.1.104:35
* gtristan would like to get rid of this network manager completely04:35
Bashing-omjr_: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive , it has terminal method.04:36
kris__jr, the link is neat :)04:37

gtristanso... conclusion, there is no way to disable this annoying dnsmasq process from running ?04:45
vexati0nsacarlson1: hosts files don't do round-robin DNS (which is what you see when you lookup yahoo.com) and nothing but your hosts file resolves "localhost"04:45

MasterPiecethenoob, Do you whats md5sum ??!! Its Unique for each ISO, hah?06:48
Aamithelpmeplz, look at additional drivers.06:49
helpmeplz_I did06:49
helpmeplz_It doesn't show up there either06:49

MasterPiecehelpmeplz_, Are you installed ubuntu? You can use of ndiswrapper to install Windows drivers in Ubuntu, Google it06:49
helpmeplz_No I won't want windows drivers06:49
helpmeplz_don't*06:50
FilthyMacNastysome times its the only way06:50
thenoobMasterPiece: i am just curious.06:50
MasterPiecehelpmeplz_, So, you have to develop some drivers or ask in developers side to develop some drivers. Although if exist any developed drivers you will be able to see in "Additional drivers" or in launchpad :)06:51
helpmeplz_F*** it I'll just download the driver from Nvidia06:52
Aamithelpmeplz, also google the same for any additional ppa.06:52
MasterPiecethenoob, You can make your Customized ISO with you're new md5sum, Search about "md5sum" and "Ubuntu Customize ISO" is Google06:52
MasterPiecehelpmeplz_, in most cases, nvidia develops their drivers and release them :D06:53

drlimbofiles who can't be moved, will be processed every time, what isnt nice08:32
EriC^^drlimbo: you could use "touch" to tag the files08:33
drlimboi thought about setting a tag, maybe green in first run, orange in second run, and red in third run08:33

=== lilstevie_ is now known as lilstevie
drlimboim checking them with filebot (a script who gets movie metadata and save them to another drive) the file cant be moved if filebot cant find the movie, or if the movie already exist on the other drive, or if there isnt enough permissions ..08:36
drlimboi think i just need to find a way, to not process these files over and over08:36
EriC^^drlimbo: don't send filenames to filebot which don't exist, or have wrong permissions08:37
drlimbomh, with touch, im able to change the filedate, right?08:37
EriC^^drlimbo: you can use find . ! -user root -exec send to file-bot08:37
=== Goku is now known as Guest91384
EriC^^that will find all files not owned by root08:37
EriC^^drlimbo: yes, you can set an arbitrary date with touch08:38
drlimboyup, im looking for them with "find"08:38
drlimbomh, im already using the date to not process them in the first 10minutes08:38
drlimbomaybe there is another way - Yrie idea about storage dump?08:39
EriC^^drlimbo: i think Yrie was proposing to check if the files have already been processed ( as in after processing you send them somewhere )08:40
EriC^^drlimbo: you could, make a file list of the processed files, and use grep to see if it's there08:41

virtualhosthello, i want to set up multiple frontends on my server but it is a development server and as such has no domain name, only an ip address. how can i set it up? is there a guide you know of?10:56
cfhowlett_!server | virtualhost10:57
ubottuvirtualhost: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server10:57
alocerGiwrgaras: for gnome use gksudo and for kde kdesudo . but for more pro stuff you should configure pkexec .10:57
FilthyMacNastyvirtualhost: you want multiple front ends available on the server or multiple machines running screen off the server?10:57
Giwrgarasi have the 14.04 version10:57
MagicSpudkeyboard fixed10:58
MagicSpudand for the sudo apt-get -f install I get the autoremove advice which I followed....10:58
FilthyMacNastywell done10:59
MagicSpudstill crashing when playing wma files10:59
virtualhosti know how to set up multiple domains on the same machine and have them lead to separate directories. i would like to replicate that effect but without purchasing a domain.10:59
virtualhosti am using this linode guide https://www.linode.com/docs/websites/lamp/lamp-server-on-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin10:59
Giwrgarasnautilus isnt a file manager? can i use it as root to do as i want?11:00
Giwrgaraswhat*11:00
FilthyMacNastyvirtualhost: for use inside the network or across the net?11:00
cfhowlettGiwrgaras, sudo nautilus ...11:00
Ben64gksudo11:00
FilthyMacNastyyou can sudo nautilus from the terminal11:00
Ben64gksudo11:00
virtualhostacross the internet11:01
Giwrgaras:)) yes that was what i was looking for thanks11:01
virtualhostit gave me an idea to edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default       and set different ports to each frontend11:01
FilthyMacNastythen you will have to register domain names with someone, unless you want to use the IP address all the time11:01
virtualhosti want to use the ip address11:02
virtualhostwill the ports idea work?11:02
FilthyMacNastyyes11:02
FilthyMacNastyxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:XXXX and port forward with your router, no problemo11:03
virtualhostgreat, i am going to give it a try11:03

matts1lverHi, trying to install ubuntu server 14.04 on two 3TB hard drives, I have created a 1MB partition and selected the "Reserved Bios boot area" option on both drives e.g. /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1. Then created a big partition filling the rest of the disks and selecting them for use as raid. Then create the raid on the two partitions e.g. /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2 and then LVM on top of the raid with LV's for swap, root and data11:09
wesley9946everything what looks like the dash, for example the logout menu11:09

smartin_ Hi All, I am having a really weird problem on an Ubuntu 12.04 server that has been working correctly for weeks. I have a /22 subnet (A) this server is on. All servers on this subnet have access to another /22 subnet (B) and /22 subnet (C). For some reason this server on A randomly does not connect or want to talk to servers on B or C. If I restart the networking or change it’s IP to another IP on A it works for a few seconds, then stops14:31
smartin_also randomly for a few seconds allows communications to B and C and then stops. All other servers on A can communicate to B or C without issue. Now the real kicker is the traceroute. If I traceroute to a server in subnet C which is allowed from all servers it shows me going through an IP on subnet B. But if I tracroute that IP on subnet B directly it does not work and will not allow me through it. See the results -14:31

FilthyMacNastyturn them all off, bring up one machine at a time and see where it dies14:35
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: The fun part is that randomly although very infrequent it works traceroute, ping eveyrthing works then stops...14:36
FilthyMacNastyhave you put your hand on top of the router lately?14:36
EriC^^FilthyMacNasty: maybe it always "has a headache" ? :P14:37
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: no but it works for every other server, and to kick it all off, sorry I should have mentioned this. This is a VM in a VmWare DRS cluster which uses a DPortGroupSwitch which is a link of 4 physical NIC’s to 1 NIC for all VM’s to use. No other VM on Subnet A in the same VMware infrastructure using the same switch, host, etc is having an issue.14:37
FilthyMacNastyI'd say shut them all down, and bring them up one by one till it fails14:39
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: Only one VM is in a failed state, everything else works14:39
AdemanIs there a way to see a lot of package updates available in the ubuntu repositories as they become available?14:40
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: so you want me to restart the one failing VM? Or the rest of the working infrastructure?14:40
FilthyMacNastyjust the broken one I'd say14:40
AdemanI had a conflict between a couple packages, and now I'm not receiving many updates at all, which is surprising, so I want to compare that against what packages have been published to the repositories14:40
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: I have already done that, on reboot it works for a few seconds14:40
smartin_FilthyMacNasty: I will reboot it again :)14:40

carver_hello, when i open certain websites in chrome/chromium, my mouse pointer stops moving with the mouse. but the mouse itself continues moving... this began a few weeks ago, any ideas?17:26
jhc76pbx: thanks. I'll try there.17:27
carver_any guidance would be appreciated, been banging my head on the desk over this for some time now :)17:27
pbxcarver_, try describing that again. you say that the mouse stops and continues moving both17:28
jim_Codeblocks doesn't run. While tried to run from terminal it said "codeblocks: symbol lookup error: codeblocks: undefined symbol: _ZN7Manager7isBatchE". What to do??17:29
pbxjim_, are you in the right channel? this is ubuntu support. if you meant to ask that here we need more context.17:30
=== mitzicuil is now known as deb
carver_yeah its weird to explain, my mouse POINTER freezes, but the mouse is actually moving, because i can hover over things, like tabs and windows and such17:31
carver_does that make more sense, PBX?17:31
pbxcarver_, yes. other browsers do it on the same sites/pages? does it stop moving when you cross a certain kind of content?  any interesting noise in the js console?17:33
pbxcarver_, any other apps exhibit this behavior?17:33
carver_both google-chrome and chromium-browser exhibit the same behavior. no other apps exhibit it, that i can see. usatoday.com is one of them, when clicking on a link with an embedded video17:34
carver_it's hard to trouble-shoot post mortem, as i'm kind of crippled without the mouse. best i can do is ctrl+alt+bkspc or alt+f2 and open a console to bounce lightdm17:34
pbxnext time open the dev tools console at the beginning of your session.  no problems in firefox? it happens on click, not on hover?17:35
loais there any way to set fat32 as read only?17:35
loai mean i have flash drive and want set it into read only mode17:36
loais it possible or i need special hardware?17:36
carver_ill try it now pbx, be back shortly, hopefully17:36
carver_loa its possible, modify fstab to mount it read-only, i presume :o17:36
loacarver_, i am not about one system, i about flash drive on multiply systems17:37
carver_pbx, is it the console tab i'm monitoring in the developer tools?17:37
carver_loa, let me try to address my issue first, and if no one assists you i'll do what i can to help :)17:38
sveinseI'm running xfce4 from nx (on ubuntu server 14.04). I've lost the text in the windows. When I open the terminal, the cursor is there and apprently typing is ok and commands are executed, but no text. Likewise the text on the app menu is gone. I've tried to run xfwm4 --replace without success. Any ideas?17:40
xoraxHi, is libcppunit an ubuntu/debian thing?  I can't find a repo for it anywhere...17:40

carver_nothing that appears critical in here.. "animation finished after being released on property opacity"17:42
sveinsePerhaps the first reasonable question would be: is freenx better, that is less glitchy than (the no longer supported) nx 3.5?17:42
carver_depending on where the physical location of the mouse is, the cursor will change from an arrow to a hand, or a cursor, but it's stuck in the same place17:43

sasukehi guys, my laptop resolution is 1600 x 900, but in ubuntu it is showing 1300x700. Can anybody tell me the solution for this17:48
carver_i _dont_ want to reboot, i was wondering if there is a way to restart the mouse service17:48
sydneycarver_: I dont think its posible.17:48
carver_like, /etc/init.d/gpm restart, except obviously not gpm17:49
sydneysasuke: Open system setting, then open monitor settings. It should be there somewhere17:49
carver_pbx, you all out of ideas, buddy? :)17:49
sasukesydney, i tried. its showing 1300x700 is the max resolution17:50
obeyymajfor the mouse problem you might be able to find something along the lines of using synaptics .. I had a similar problem I can't remember what I did.17:50
obeyymajI know it involved extensive PhD Googling. Haha17:50
sasukei'm using dell latitude e544017:50
pbxcarver_, answer all my questions first :)17:51
carver_will someone verify this bug for me? in chrome/chromium, go to usatoday.com, and click on the top article with the ebola-girl, does your mouse freeze? if so, great, if not, what version of chrome are you using?17:51
carver_pbx oops, mustve missed it let me scroll up17:51
obeyymajGoogle "synaptics mouse not working dell latitude" you should find a viable solution there.17:51
carver_pbx, i replied with:17:52
carver_nothing that appears critical in here.. "animation finished after being released on property opacity"17:52
jepp32byteyou can use the sh command to re-enable the mouse17:52

bubbasauresRobBurkeOne, This is all not supported, unity8 is the end goal however. This channel is straight actual issue support.19:59
RobBurkeOneWhat does unity 8 have to do with Gnome 3.14?20:00
reisioRobBurkeOne: Unity is about 90% GNOME20:01
reisioit's a different window manager and very-front-end configuration20:01
RobBurkeOneBut I will nethertheless be able to use Gnome 3.14 and Unity7. Or is Unity7 somehow dependant of Gnome <3.14?20:02
RobBurkeOne+ < 3.1420:02
reisioRobBurkeOne: you can use whatever you like20:03
reisiothe "Ubuntu" version of Ubuntu by default installs Unity20:03
reisioyou can change it if you like20:03
RobBurkeOneMy initial question was whether someone has tried gnome 3.14 from a ppa like Rico's in 14.04. So I indeed consider changing it.20:04
RobBurkeOneBut before I upgrade my system to an unsupported version of gnome I wanted to hear some experiences before :)20:05
reisioRobBurkeOne: unsupported?20:06
RobBurkeOne3.14 is not officially supported in 14.0420:06
xanguaRobBurkeOne: PPA's are not supported so you are on your own, also notice the gnome PPA breaks unity20:06
RobBurkeOneSo there is no way to use Unity and another gnome ppa in parallel?20:07

aethersisacerspyro, I mean where does the problem persist21:28
acerspyroaethersis: I do not have the sound problem21:28
aethersisthere's a  program called HDA jack retask or something like that - it lets you control inputs and retask them21:28
acerspyrolmat does21:28
ObrienDaveWUBI is NOT in the Xubuntu ISO21:28
tgm4883LukeUseTheSource: relax, we were just looking for clarification on status and we got it21:28
LukeUseTheSourceIf you can't help with WUBI then just dont try, quit trolling21:28
k1lLukeUseTheSource: so if you want to use wubi go ahead. but dont force the supporters to help you against their will.21:28
LukeUseTheSourceI already told you the status21:29
acerspyrolmat: which means... Uh.21:29
* acerspyro thinks21:29
LukeUseTheSourceI am not forcing anyone21:29
lmatacerspyro: ;-)21:29
acerspyro...Nothing? Sadly, I think it means nothing.21:29
tgm4883LukeUseTheSource: calm down21:29
aethersisyeah lmat the program is called HDAJackRetask21:29
lmatacerspyro: I'll get rough with it later.21:29
aethersisLukeUseTheSource, if you can't get wubi working try installation over lan21:29
LukeUseTheSourceI was just informing this arrogant guy that he is incorrect.21:29
k1lLukeUseTheSource: calm down now. last warning.21:29
LukeUseTheSourceBios doesnt support network boot21:30
acerspyroLukeUseTheSource: Don't be an acerspyro21:30
acerspyro:)21:30
acerspyro-- Pro tip from achernya21:30
acerspyroacerspyro*21:30
tgm4883LukeUseTheSource: k1l acerspyro ok, lets get beyond all that and actually support stuff OK?21:30
aethersisLukeUseTheSource, then remove hard drive from the laptop, create separate partition for ubuntu boot and install it from hdd to the same hdd, It can be done21:30
aethersisI also tried it and it worked :D21:30
tgm4883LukeUseTheSource: can you please restate your original questions21:30
LukeUseTheSourceWhy are you warning me? This guy continues to tell me WUBI will break stuff it isnt supported, use other methods, etc.. if he cant help please just let other people ry instead of making up stuff21:31
acerspyrotgm4883: Oh please, don't start, that's not how we stop such a discussion, as it lets both participants raging.21:31
acerspyroAnd that only makes it worse.21:31
LukeUseTheSourceaethersis: I dont have another machine21:31
aethersiscan't someone do that for you?21:31
aethersiswubi actually works sometimes and sometimes it does not. That's a sad fact about it21:32
tgm4883acerspyro: it clogs up the chat for others looking for support and it isn't actually support (it's arguing whether something is supported or not)21:32
LukeUseTheSourceThis place is as useless as always, full of elitists who always think they know your situation and are usually wrong. Ill goto the forum where actual help can be gotten21:32
acerspyrotgm4883: it is. Don't suddently stop smoking, you'll get health problems.21:32
zackifyLukeUseTheSource: im not an elitist but i am never wrong ;)21:33
aethersislol rage quit21:33
ObrienDaveLukeUseTheSource, you don't have USB, DVD/CD or Net install. removing HD and installing in another computer seems to be the only way21:33
tgm4883geez21:33
acerspyroNevermind! ^.^21:33
aethersisthe solution I advised him would actually work lol21:33
aethersisI wanted to say get a new laptop but I stopped myself xD21:33
tgm4883it would be fun to go back through the logs and see his previous questions since "This place is as useless as always"21:33
aethersis:D21:34
aethersisis anyone pro with alsa and jack?21:34
ObrienDave<LukeUseTheSource> So I have no USB Drives or DVD/CDs and want to get Ubuntu on this crappy laptop but I keep getting a permissions error when i use wubi to try and install it?21:34
aethersisI must solve this problem and they can't help me even on the forums lol21:34
k1lguys no need to make more drama out of it. please help to calm the situation down and focus on support again. thanks21:34

tgm4883Google hasn't indexed anything for "LukeUseTheSource" on irclogs.ubuntu.com21:35
aethersisand I beg you on my knees is anyone familiar with jack or alsa? It seems like it's something so arcane that even the best linux pros don't understand it hahah21:36
k1ltgm4883: its enough now. let it go21:36
acerspyroaethersis: Well, I use my computer, then I put my router offline (connectionless, not powered down). When I put it back on, the network won't work.21:36
acerspyroTrying to restart the network service errors and I have to reboot.21:36
aethersisseems like a problem with DHCP maybe21:36

aethersishave you tried to simulate similar event by disconnecting and then connecting LAN wire?21:37

acerspyrohang on21:37
aethersissee what happens - it may be a problem with your router as well lol21:37
acerspyroaethersis: nope21:38
aethersisit doesn't happen?21:38
acerspyroNot a problem with my router21:38
acerspyrolet me reboot21:38
aethersisyeah reboot and then disconnect and connect LAN cable again and see if it's the same as if you put the router in connectionless state21:38
acerspyro-sigh- I really wish I could fix my Plymouth boot screen. Looks like some sort of BSOD when it shuts down :P21:39
acerspyroPurple screen with words going over the Ubuntu text and the four dots21:39
aethersisif it will behave differently, then I don't know the solution, if it behaves the same , then you should see if it gets message from DHCP21:40
aethersisacerspyro, I love this purple screen :D but mine is even better - it's BLUE :D21:40
acerspyroaethersis: lol, but I want plymouth to be graphical21:40
aethersisfor what21:40

acerspyroNetwork still works21:43
acerspyroYou know what makes the network not work?21:43
aethersisno lol21:43
acerspyroMe, disabling the network via the "disable network" button because the network error messages are annoying.21:44
acerspyroWhen I re-enable it, it doesn't work.21:44
aethersisapparently there's a hardware switch for that and when you reenable network, the switch is still in off mode21:44
acerspyro.-.21:44
aethersisI doubt there's anything you can do about it because it's most likely on the hardware side21:45
acerspyrobut, but...21:45
aethersisbut is it hard to reconnect the wire? :D21:45
acerspyroAnyone who is going to tell me not to compare Ubuntu to other distros, shut up.21:45
acerspyroAhem... It worked on Arch :)21:45
aethersisyou can always buy a LAN extension cord and put it in an easily accessible place21:45
aethersiswhaaa21:45
acerspyroaethersis: Thing is, it's going to nag me because the network is offline21:46
squintyaethersis: fwiw, seems the noise problem is a know situation according to the following  http://jackaudio.org/faq/   "How do I stop JACK from creating pops, clicks and other artifacts?"  only problem is there is no further information (no link) to be had... if there was a solution, you would think that the main jack site would present one21:46
acerspyroMy router is only a router connected to another router acting as a gateway.21:46
aethersiswait I think I misunderstood you21:46
greylurkmy system hard-crashed in the middle of an upgrade, and now I've got some screwed up dependencies... Looking for suggestions on how to resolve.21:46
acerspyroOn ArchLinux, I could disable the network and re-enable it with no issues.21:47
aethersissquinty it's impossible there's no solution :'(21:47
greylurklibgcc1 is the one that's showing up when I 'apt-get install -f'21:47
squintyaethersis:  maybe you are right...then again.  seems though it is not a ubuntu support question21:47
greylurkbut that won't install because of a pre-dependency on multiarch-support, which is not configured.  'dpkg --configure multiarch-support' gives me an error with libc6 not configured21:47
aethersisbut squinty, I also have problem when I record with alsa - there's clicking too!21:48
aethersisacerspyro, what if you do sudo service networking restart21:48
greylurk'dpkg --configure libc6' won't run, because it says that it's got a dependency on libgcc1, which brings me back to the top of the list :)21:48

NCS_Onehi21:50
aethersisHA21:51
aethersistry to fail your network and do that thing!21:51
acerspyrowait, I ned to unplug the wire AND disable the network for it to fail.21:51
NCS_Oneanyone using MX518 got the DPI buttons working?21:51
aethersisremember, network-manager is an evil beast! If you mess up with your etc/network file and use network-manager, everything will EXPLODE! it has its own lovely settings and it doesnt like you playing with etc/network!21:52
acerspyrohuh. what the (we all know it but I don't know why I can't say it, but apparently I can't.)?21:52
aethersis???21:52
acerspyroIt won't fail.21:52
acerspyroStraaaaaange.21:53
aethersishahah I sent you good vibrations through the wirez :D21:53

acerspyroI think I need to wait for it to notice it's offline for it to fail.21:53
aethersisI hope it got automagically fixed :D21:53
m3n3chm0dear all guys, anybody knows how to change port or max connections in peerflix command line ?21:53

chuilubuntu? @bubbasures23:25

Guest32814Mugen_Deutsche: Are you telling a person who wants to commit suicide that committing suicide is a sign of weakness..?23:47
Guest32814How German. lol23:47
reisiom{a}zel: celly?23:48
m{a}zeljust wondering because i am getting a Surface2 tomorrow and at some point would like to try and get something else on it23:48
m{a}zelCellphone reisio23:48
reisionevermoreraven: no point in doing something that accomplishes nothing :p23:48
reisiom{a}zel: ah23:48
reisiom{a}zel: you're getting a non-pro surface?23:48
Guest32814Mugen_Deutsche: No offense though, but it is kind of ironic.23:48
m{a}zelyes, don't have a choice, its what is offered through my school23:49
reisiom{a}zel: those are locked up, there is no guarantee you will ever be able to replace the OS on an arm surface23:49
Guest32814nevermoreraven: How old are you?23:49
reisioyou can with a pro, though23:49
m{a}zeland I am already awre that it's tightly locked down.. fort Knox couldn't hold a candle to it if I understand correctly right now23:49
reisiowell, there's an encrypted key you need or something23:49
m{a}zelI know XDA is working on it with limited success23:50
m{a}zelbeen reading about it23:50
reisioI don't think the efi shim even works around it, but I forget23:50
phunyguyGuest32814: please drop it.23:50
reisioI can't imagine there is too much motivation, the non-pro surface is still very expensive for a table23:50
hall72I encrypted my SSD during installation of Ubuntu. How do I encrypt my storage disks? :/23:50

SorcerousFoxThat is way more than 10% :323:52
hall72I encrypted my SSD during installation of Ubuntu. How do I encrypt my storage disks? :/23:52
m{a}zelthey were saying they may have to tear it down (the os that is) and rebuild it to get all that info.. if they can figure it out23:52
=== Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i
m{a}zelguess they will cross that bridge when or IF they get there23:52
Guest32814I honestly don't care, and it was an off topic indeed.23:52
Guest32814hall72: You encrypted the entire drive, what else would you like to encrypt?23:53
hall72Guest32814: My older storage disks.23:53
Guest32814oh23:53
Guest32814k23:53
Guest32814hmmm23:53
Guest32814Good question.23:54
hall72:o23:54
Guest32814hall72: I honestly do not know, however maybe this will help: http://www.howtogeek.com/115955/how-to-quickly-encrypt-removable-storage-devices-with-ubuntu/23:56
Guest32814hall72: also, remember to enable TRIM on your SSD23:56
hall72Guest32814: Is that easy to do?23:56
Blue1i had windows xp installed -- wanted to dual boot -- it gave me an option to install an lvm (no side by side option) -- windows is now gone.  How should I have done this?23:57
Guest32814hall72: what exactly?23:57
hall72Guest32814: Enabling "TRIM" on my SSD.23:57
Guest32814Blue1: "Something different" and set partitions manually?23:57
Guest32814hall72: No, it's not difficult, google is your friend.23:58
hall72Google is NOT my friend. Google spies on me.23:58
hall72:/23:58
Blue1Guest32814: I tried that initally - but it would not let me resize the parition.23:58
hall72Google spies on all of us.23:58
reisionot me23:58
Guest32814hall72: Fine. Duckduckgo.com is your friend.23:58
hall72Guest32814: Better!23:58
Guest32814:)23:59
hall72Ugh. I have so much stuff to do.23:59
reisiobecause one cannot simply use a web site without committing to being its friend or not...23:59
Guest32814hall72: Duckduckgo over TOR and Hong Kong servers is your friend. Use that to find TRIM command.23:59
Guest32814hall72: Remember to connect via VPN.23:59
hall72Guest32814: That's exactly what I'll do!23:59
