| bella | when doing "sudo apt-get update" it says: 'dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem | 00:02 |
| k1l_ | bella: do that | 00:03 |
| celroc | bella: Ah, okay, sometimes that happens when the computer freezes during an update. Type "sudo dpkg --configure -a" in the terminal and then it should guide you through the process | 00:03 |

I commented the line #START_CHARGE_THRESH_BAT0=55 but no effect, and i have no clue whats causing this. If I comment the STOP_CHARGE line and reboot, battery still wont charge, but if i use the command " tlp fullcharge" then its back to normal. Any help is appreciated. | 00:17 |

| blueingress | When do we have emacs 24.4 for ubuntu.? | 00:46 |
| k1l_ | !info emacs | 00:46 |
| ubottu | emacs (source: emacs-defaults): GNU Emacs editor (metapackage). In component main, is optional. Version 45.0ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 1 kB, installed size 25 kB | 00:46 |
| twirck-user-2084 | #mac | 00:46 |
| k1l_ | blueingress: well, emacs 24 is the version right now iirc | 00:48 |
| k1l_ | blueingress: and, 24.4 was released yesterday. if you see when the freezes were for the past releases that is a clear answer | 00:49 |
| blueingress | k1l_, want to try it now... | 00:54 |
| k1l_ | blueingress: see if there is a PPA already or a .deb package or compile it yourself | 00:55 |
| yusuf1 | what is emacs? some editor? i always using vim btw :3 | 00:56 |
| dreki | My computer seems to be suddenly running more slowly than usual at times. I have checked the CPU, RAM and disk usage but those are normal. What could I look for next? | 00:59 |
| tecywiz121 | Hey. In 14.04, I have fetchmail configured to deliver mail to dovecot through LMTP. Problem is, fetchmail is starting before dovecot. I figure I can do something with upstart, but I don't know how to get started. Anyone? | 01:00 |
| climbup | dreki: are you familiar with the program "top"? | 01:00 |
| blueingress | yusuf1, I used vim for 15 years, But I am using emacs more and more | 01:00 |
| climbup | you could leave it running and watch the highest culprits in any category | 01:00 |
| dreki | climbup: I was using htop to see my processor and memory usage. I know what top is but haven't used it | 01:01 |
| climbup | dreki: htop will do the trick, too. the key is just to have it open while you're experiencing the slowness | 01:03 |
| yusuf1 | tecywiz121: you can use upstart, | 01:03 |
| climbup | if you sort the process list by CPU usage descending, whatever's on top is likely the culprit | 01:03 |
| yusuf1 | tecywiz121: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8608667/ | 01:06 |
| yusuf1 | the pre-start script will check the process run or not before the main script running | 01:06 |
| dreki | climbup: thanks for your help | 01:07 |
| tecywiz121 | yusuf1, It looks like fetchmail is using a different format of script, it's located in /etc/init.d/fetchmail | 01:09 |
| dreki | climbup: I don't have any processes that use a lot of CPU or memory but I have one that Htop highlights in yellow for a few seconds at a time. I looked online to see what it means when a process is highlighted in yellow but can't find anything. | 01:10 |
| yusuf1 | ohh... tecywiz121, you mush explore the init.d/fetchmail script first, or pre-start will check the output of /etc/init.d/fetchmail status (if available) , or replace the init.d script with upstart (a little bit tricky but not difficult) | 01:12 |
| yusuf1 | or you can add script in dovecot upstart :D and prevent fetchmail auto start when the server boot up:D | 01:14 |
| ZZRMike | will mv move a file that's currently open in a process? | 01:15 |
| tecywiz121 | yusuf1, So add a "start on" line to /etc/init/dovecot.conf? | 01:18 |
| tecywiz121 | Sorry, I'm really not familiar with how the boot process works :P | 01:18 |
| B0bsF1sh | if I experience read-error on swap-device followed by kernel panics twice a week running 12.04 LTS on VirtualBox - would it likely be something in my Ubuntu installation or VirtualBox? | 01:20 |
| === soli_ is now known as Guest74879 | ||
| yusuf1 | i don't know tecywiz121 exactly, if there are upstart script for dovecot, maybe you can add the pre-start script section | 01:23 |

| Matterwave | Hello | 01:48 |
| Corey84 | Matterwave, welcome understand you have a raid install issue that correct? | 01:49 |
| Matterwave | I am unable to boot either my windows 7 or ubuntu after upgrading to 14.04 | 01:49 |
| daftykins | personally i don't think the Ubuntu install would've used a config compatible with whatever RAID Windows was using | 01:49 |
| Matterwave | I don't know if it has to do with raid, I am not familiar with how all this works well enough to understand if that's the issue | 01:49 |
| daftykins | telling us the system type and what RAID setup it had would be a good starting point | 01:50 |
| daftykins | (laptop/desktop - make + model, etc) | 01:50 |
| Matterwave | What I can say is I had previously installed 12.10 and dual booted with windows 7. I installed 14.04 where 12.10 was, and now when I start up my computer, grub starts, I click "ubuntu" and then I get a black screen, and then an error | 01:50 |
| Corey84 | can you install pastebinit then provide the output link from this in a terminal (from the live) (lsblk-fm ; sudo parted -l ; locate mdadm)|pastebinit | 01:50 |
| Corey84 | pastebin the error too pls | 01:50 |
| Matterwave | I took a picture of the error | 01:51 |
| Matterwave | I can upload it | 01:51 |

| Matterwave | my internet is quite slow | 01:53 |
| MarGul | I use xubuntu and I am trying the startup disk creator to create a windows 7 bootable USB stick for my roommate. I can browse for my .iso file but as soon as I select it nothing happens. I cant click make startup disk. Is there any other programs that do similar things? | 01:53 |

| Matterwave | that's the error I get upon trying to boot ubuntu | 01:56 |
| MarGul | Thanks squinty, I will have a look at the first link you sent me first | 01:56 |
| daftykins | Matterwave: share the output of the above commands Corey84 asked for | 01:57 |
| Matterwave | ok, hold on | 01:57 |
| daftykins | Matterwave: you're familiar with pastebin sites yeah? | 01:58 |
| MarGul | daftykins: is this how you do it using 'dd'? http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-a-iso-to-a-usb-device | 01:59 |
| Matterwave | Yeah, I will paste-bin | 01:59 |
| Matterwave | http://pastebin.com/GxGjaCUf | 01:59 |
| daftykins | wow i'm horrified to see someone use the term 'burn' for USB devices :( | 01:59 |
| Sway | lol | 02:00 |
| * ObrienDave envisions smoking USB ports ;P | 02:00 | |
| daftykins | MarGul: yep, have the flash drive formatted FAT prior to make sure, then it's as simple as "dd if=/path/to/windows.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M" | 02:00 |
| daftykins | where /dev/sdX is your flash drive. | 02:01 |
| MarGul | awesome! Thank you | 02:01 |
| ObrienDave | fat32 | 02:01 |
| sjm | daftykins, why format it first if you're going to overwrite it with dd? | 02:01 |
| Matterwave | so I have no idea what to do now D: | 02:01 |
| daftykins | sjm: because reasons | 02:01 |
| Corey84 | former / current unetbootin user daftykins ? | 02:06 |
| daftykins | never | 02:06 |
| Corey84 | standard behavior of such users lol hence why i asked | 02:06 |
| daftykins | Corey84: which part, is standard behaviour? | 02:07 |
| Corey84 | format prior to dd lol | 02:07 |
| linux_dream | so how can we help Matterwave? He must install grub on the ubuntu partition? | 02:08 |
| daftykins | i've just seen a couple of wonky setups before, so felt like adding it into the mix | 02:08 |
| daftykins | i don't think it has anything to do with GRUB | 02:08 |
| linux_dream | he would have to mount Ubuntu's partition and install grub on it? | 02:08 |
| daftykins | but i don't personally get the /dev/mapper setups so i'm not touching that one with a barge pole :) | 02:08 |
| Corey84 | wait missed the paste hes on /dev/mapper? | 02:09 |
| Matterwave | If you guys need the links again: Here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/GxGjaCUf and here's the error I get tryign to boot ubuntu: http://imgur.com/3sCbLwe | 02:09 |
| MarGul | daftykins: I go 'sudo dd if=/home/gullberg/Desktop/X17-24209.iso of=/dev/sdf1 bs=4M' and my terminal wont show me anything. Almost like it froze :( | 02:09 |
| daftykins | i'd mount the Ubuntu partition and compare the /etc/fstab file's UUIDs to the real UUIDs | 02:09 |
| daftykins | MarGul: yes dd doesn't give output | 02:09 |
| MarGul | So I just wait until I get the new line in my terminal? Thats when its done? | 02:09 |
| daftykins | MarGul: wait and it'll be done shortly, or switch to another terminal, work out the PID of 'dd', then run "kill -USR1 $PID" | 02:09 |
| daftykins | but, waiting would be easiest | 02:10 |
| Corey84 | lsblk -fm (notice the space ) pls re run | 02:10 |
| Corey84 | jsut the lsblk -fm |pastebinit not the entirety | 02:10 |
| Matterwave | ok | 02:11 |
| Matterwave | http://pastebin.com/nNwzhNKU | 02:11 |
| Matterwave | This is lsblk -fm | 02:11 |
| Corey84 | so BOTH drives are seen as the same not sure why but that is not helping | 02:12 |
| daftykins | Corey84: because RAID? :) | 02:13 |
| Corey84 | no should be sepearte | 02:13 |
| daftykins | what do you mean? | 02:13 |
| Corey84 | revisit the last paste see the uuids | 02:14 |
| Matterwave | I have really no idea how any of this is set up haha | 02:14 |
| daftykins | i don't see any UUIDs in any paste | 02:14 |
| Corey84 | sorry about that --- he needs uuids and doesn t have them is my point | 02:17 |
| Matterwave | I don't even know what a UUID is | 02:18 |
| linux_dream | so how do we fix that | 02:18 |
| linux_dream | he used to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 without any problems | 02:18 |
| Yrie | I wonder... | 02:18 |
| Yrie | !UUID | 02:19 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 02:19 |
| Matterwave | Yeah, I used to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10. Now that I installed ubuntu 14.04 over ubuntu 12.10 I can no longer boot anything | 02:19 |
| Matterwave | other than using my flash drive | 02:19 |
| linux_dream | here is a similar problem I think....: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1559762 | 02:20 |
| linux_dream | not sure if that help | 02:21 |
| Matterwave | Before I had it set up so that I got an option to boot either windows7 or ubuntu, before grub loaded, so that grub only loaded if I chose "ubuntu" | 02:21 |
| Matterwave | now, grub just loads from start-up without any previous windows | 02:21 |
| Matterwave | and it doesn't even have windows 7 as an option, only ubuntu, and advanced options and the like | 02:21 |
| Matterwave | after choosing ubuntu I get the black screen as mentioned above | 02:21 |
| daftykins | linux_dream: we don't really need you acting as counsel :) | 02:21 |
| linux_dream | ok | 02:22 |
| frib | i have a sony vaio with freshly installed ubuntu and it locks up when i connect a monitor w/VGA cable. how can I fix this? thanks | 02:22 |
| Matterwave | so any ideas guys? | 02:30 |
| MarGul | daftykins: I ran dd and it said that it was successful. When I inspect my usb stick I can see that there has been files added. But when I try to start up the computer with my usb stick it wont show up in the bootorder. Probably meaning that it is not a bootable usb stick? | 02:30 |
| daftykins | MarGul: i'd use a one-time boot menu key if your system has one | 02:32 |
| Matterwave | nobody knows how to help me? T_T | 02:36 |
| MarGul | daftykins: No to sure what that means :/ . Allt the time before when I have done this I have just created the bootable usb stick and then the computer has recognized it. when i go fdisk -l it says that my usb stick is bootable | 02:37 |
| daftykins | MarGul: what kind of computer is this? laptop? make+ model? | 02:38 |

| o11c | okay, proper warning, I'm kind of pissed off right now | 03:28 |
| o11c | but how does a single maintainer managed to mess up two packages this badly? | 03:28 |

| === kirkland is now known as Guest45646 | ||
| o11c | even after fixing the obvious problem in libstdc++.so.6.0.19-gdb.py, the printers.py file contains raise ValueError, "Cannot find type %s::%s" % (str(orig), name) | 03:33 |

| blazingpossum | anyone proficient with gpg in the command line? | 03:36 |
| blazingpossum | hi jeiworth | 03:37 |
| o11c | Artemis3v: Debian package told doko to gtfo and reverted to python2 | 03:37 |
| jeiworth | hey blazingpossum | 03:37 |
| arda | Hello I install AMD DRiver from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka5gBMlo-zo | 03:37 |

| lumberjackin | i install buts | 03:38 |
| o11c | (I think making gdb use python3 is a foolish decision, since it breaks all 3rd-party scripts and it is often impossible to rewrite them, but I can deal with it if at least the whole OS agrees on what version it is!!!) | 03:38 |
| jeiworth | blazingpossum, like what? | 03:38 |
| arda | But i see error here http://postimg.org/image/rmgm7qbrd/ | 03:38 |

| blazingpossum | o11c thanks | 03:39 |
| o11c | arda: did you install the ubuntu package from 'restricted', or the package from amd's website? I'm not going to watch a video | 03:39 |

| blazingpossum | jeiworth do you use gpg at all? | 03:41 |
| jeiworth | soooo after upgrading to 14.10 i have a strange problem with the context menus of the menu-bar, they are all transparent and don't show anything... anyone has experienced something like that? | 03:41 |
| jeiworth | blazingpossum, yes, mostly for signing | 03:41 |
| arda | o11c: I have tried before, but experienced the same problem | 03:42 |
| jeiworth | all other context menus are fine... tried resetting to standard theme but no show :( | 03:42 |
| o11c | arda: that does not answer my question | 03:43 |
| arda | o11c: sebelumnya saya menginstall driver AMD .run dari website namun mengalami kesalahan yang sama | 03:45 |
| ahsm | whats up homie g's | 03:45 |
| o11c | arda: um, that wasn't english | 03:46 |
| o11c | arda: but if you install from the amd website even once you permanently break ubuntu, so you have to reinstall it from the CD or whatever | 03:46 |
| Zephyr1139 | arda, I watched the video. Did you do everything he described from a terminal session? | 03:49 |
| ahsm | do any of u guys have ccna? | 03:50 |

| rww | jeiworth: #ubuntu+1 | 03:52 |
| jeiworth | rww, ah yes, thanks | 03:52 |
| Zephyr1139 | arda, and rebooting didn't resolve? Perhaps your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is still configured for your mainboard GPU. | 03:53 |
| arda | Zephyr1139: ok I try it | 03:54 |
| Zephyr1139 | arda, (I know you just left) perhaps the "sudo amdconfig --initial" command didn't prune that file. | 03:56 |
| bmelcher84 | hello everyone | 03:56 |
| bmelcher84 | trying to mount a raid5, anyone know much about this? | 03:57 |
| agent_white | Evenin' | 03:57 |
| bmelcher84 | ello white | 03:57 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, is it mdraid or hw? | 03:58 |
| bmelcher84 | in disk utility, i can see the sata host adapter and it says raid5 on it, and below it are the 4 500gb harddrives | 03:58 |
| bmelcher84 | hw | 03:58 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: hw* | 03:58 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, sorry, I meant the sata-adapter is hardware-raid or was it set-up as software-rais (mdraid)? | 03:59 |
| bmelcher84 | hardware | 04:00 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, and the raid is configured in the adapter bios but you see the single disks in the OS? | 04:00 |
| bmelcher84 | correct | 04:01 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, hmm did it work before? | 04:01 |
| bmelcher84 | yes, it was working on windows and i am trying to recover the data with a live boot ubuntu | 04:02 |
| bmelcher84 | so basically trying to mount it | 04:02 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, ok, what adaptor do you have? | 04:02 |
| jeiworth | perhaps you need an additional firmware package.... | 04:03 |
| bmelcher84 | it says ati sb7x0/sb8x0/sb9x0 sata controller raid5 mode | 04:03 |
| bmelcher84 | or do you need the info from the bios? | 04:03 |
| bmelcher84 | or post i mean | 04:04 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, coud be helpfull, let me check with the allmighty google | 04:04 |
| bmelcher84 | i tried the google foo earlier and started going in a circle, so thought i would poke my head in here for a little | 04:05 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, hehe | 04:06 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: i need to remember to quote your name as i talk to you | 04:06 |
| bubbasaures | bmelcher84, You can tab complete nicks. | 04:09 |
| bmelcher84 | bubbasaures: :) | 04:09 |
| bmelcher84 | bubbasaures: I just forget to :p | 04:09 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: so im basically confused on how to mount this thing... I feel that I am missing something here | 04:12 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, ok it seems to be a chip that is emulating a hw raid but is actually a sw raid | 04:12 |
| wlxmhls1 | hi | 04:12 |
| bmelcher84 | hm | 04:13 |
| bmelcher84 | okay | 04:13 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: so how would I go about mounting this raid | 04:14 |
| daftykins | !fakeraid | 04:14 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 04:14 |
| jeiworth | good point daftykins | 04:16 |
| === Granis` is now known as Granis | ||
| jeiworth | also, install mdadm | 04:16 |
| bjrohan | I am starting a program from the command line, which starts, then crashes, the terminal captures the error, but it is so long I can't scroll to the top to get it all, how do I pipe the results to a file? | 04:16 |
| bmelcher84 | daftykins: the read looks like it wants to setup a raid from scratch, not just mount an existing one... | 04:17 |
| bmelcher84 | or i could be missing something here | 04:17 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: okay, 1 sec | 04:17 |
| daftykins | bmelcher84: the last link was the most relevant | 04:17 |
| jeiworth | bjrohan, 2>&1 /path/to/file | 04:17 |
| bmelcher84 | daftykins: thats the one i read | 04:18 |
| bjrohan | jeiworth: so ./DraftSight 2>&1 /home/bjrohan/Draft_Error | 04:19 |
| jeiworth | bjrohan, if you just want to pipe the error output it's <command> 2> /path/to/file | 04:19 |
| bjrohan | ok | 04:20 |
| jeiworth | the &1 just adds all output from the script to the output file | 04:20 |
| jeiworth | or, mor correct, standard out | 04:20 |
| bjrohan | jeiworth: gotcha, I did that, and tried to take the pipe as an input file | 04:21 |
| Steven-mobile | I'm installing ubuntu on an unallocated half of my HD. The other half has win7pro. Ubuntu installation doesn't give me the option to install side-by-side windows. did I do something wrong? | 04:22 |
| daftykins | Steven-mobile: sounds like Windows is installed in either legacy or EFI mode and you may have booted ubuntu in the other, preventing it from detecting it | 04:23 |
| ss__ | dfs | 04:23 |
| daftykins | !uefi | Steven-mobile have a read here to confirm | 04:23 |
| ubottu | Steven-mobile have a read here to confirm: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 04:23 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: i am running a live boot, and i am getting errors with install mdadm | 04:23 |
| bmelcher84 | it wants to install postfix but it says it cant intall it | 04:24 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, I suppose to get that mpunted you would have to manually configure the raid5 disks first | 04:24 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: that wont break the raid? | 04:24 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, ok, so you are trying to rescue from a live-cd? | 04:24 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: I have to make sure not to do that, as the data is very important | 04:24 |
| Steven-mobile | Thanks daftykins, ubottu | 04:24 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: yes | 04:24 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, hmm can you try to run the command mdadm from console, just to see if it's provided? | 04:25 |

| bmelcher84 | maybe apt-get isnt updating all the way | 04:27 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, it's probably because you burnt it on a USB as CD, which is read-only | 04:27 |
| bmelcher84 | well shiet | 04:28 |
| bmelcher84 | lol | 04:28 |

| jeiworth | you could try to make a real install of ubuntu on a USB to have an upgradable system | 04:29 |
| jeiworth | but that takes time | 04:29 |
| bmelcher84 | yeah, seems like there would be a way to bypass this some how | 04:29 |
| jeiworth | on the other hand, you'd have a decent rescue system | 04:29 |
| bmelcher84 | true | 04:29 |
| bmelcher84 | I will do that in a few days | 04:29 |
| squinty | unetbootin + livedvd iso +persistance | 04:30 |
| bmelcher84 | gonna try and make it by with live boot first | 04:30 |
| bmelcher84 | maybe i can mnt a fake drive in memory? | 04:30 |
| bmelcher84 | or maybe that is going backwards | 04:30 |
| bmelcher84 | wait | 04:30 |
| bmelcher84 | actually i installed skype earlier on this thing, how was that possible? | 04:31 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, true, but will obviously not be persistent, next reboot all is gone | 04:31 |
| bmelcher84 | true | 04:31 |
| bmelcher84 | which is okay for now jeiworth | 04:31 |
| squinty | fwiw, i can log onto 91.189.91.15 here with web browser. no 404 | 04:32 |
| bmelcher84 | odd | 04:32 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, I know, I have also been able to install some things on live usb but some things not, not sure what is the restriction there | 04:32 |
| bmelcher84 | i see | 04:33 |
| jeiworth | I suppose it's a space issue... | 04:33 |
| bmelcher84 | jeiworth: would you mind poking around for a second with teamviewer | 04:34 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, anyway, it's always good to have a full system on a decent sized usb for any eventuality ;) | 04:34 |
| bmelcher84 | im not sure thats it, mdadm is only 4oookb | 04:34 |
| bmelcher84 | yeah, i think i will do that next! | 04:34 |
| jeiworth | bmelcher84, ok, but no guarantees | 04:35 |
| bmelcher84 | i feel its something simple and im just missing somehting | 04:35 |
| bmelcher84 | ofcourse | 04:35 |
| bmelcher84 | so even if i did have a full installed system, how would i take a raid on another computer and recover it on the fully isntalled system? wouldn't that break the raid if the raid was setup on another system? | 04:38 |

| cLoCkWiSe | hello | 06:06 |
| cLoCkWiSe | Tim_Miller: what OS | 06:06 |
| cLoCkWiSe | must be your router | 06:06 |
| Tim_Miller | xubuntu on the system that is having problems, xp on the system that is working fine | 06:06 |
| cLoCkWiSe | oh i used to have a similar problem with xubuntu | 06:07 |
| cLoCkWiSe | do you have your default gateway and DNS set properly | 06:07 |
| Tim_Miller | yes | 06:07 |
| Tim_Miller | what is the difference between Auto DHCP and Auto DHCP addresses only | 06:10 |
| drussell | Tim_Miller: auto dhcp sets, everything via dhcp, ip address, default gw, dns etc etc auto dhcp address only means you can set everything manually except the ip address which it will pick up from dhcp | 06:12 |
| Tim_Miller | i have tried setting the dns manually and automatically | 06:15 |
| Tim_Miller | when i try to ping a website i get an unknown host | 06:16 |

| cLoCkWiSe | can you ping your router | 06:17 |
| cLoCkWiSe | ? | 06:17 |
| cLoCkWiSe | your network card on xubuntu machine may not be working? do you have an active connection? | 06:18 |

| somsip | !cron | WJB | 06:54 |
| ubottu | WJB: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto | 06:54 |

| agent_white | WJB: ntpdate already runs at boot. | 06:56 |
| somsip | WJB: @reboot /usr/sbin/ntpdate in the root crontab looks like it will do what you want, but whether it achieves the aim is a different matter entirely. Surely ntpd is what you need? | 06:56 |
| agent_white | No need for a cronjob. | 06:56 |

| blackyboy | Hi everyone, i have setup a local DNS server using bind9 in Ubuntu, while i dig @127.0.0.1 dns.myoffice.com the answer was 0 and i have assigned my forwaders to 8.8.8.8 | 07:56 |
| blackyboy | how can i setup a local dns with the name of my website name ? | 07:56 |
| somsip | blackyboy: how local? Just your machine or for a LAN? | 07:56 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: I don't think you really want/need that | 07:57 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: a simple solution would be to put an entery in your hostfile | 07:57 |
| ikonia | rather than a dns setup for one url | 07:57 |
| blackyboy | somsip: for lan | 07:58 |
| blackyboy | i have 20 vms in my proxmox local server and every vm need to assigned a name so i have to do it, and same time it want to be in the name of my website name, cos i have to use the wildcard certificate with those vms for my applications | 07:59 |
| blackyboy | ikonia: no already i have added in host file but i want to assigned from DNS | 07:59 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: why do you want it from dns ? | 08:00 |
| blackyboy | assume my website was blackyboy.com, now i want to setup local DNS in the same name, while i dig to any one of the local vm as text.blackyboy.com i dont want to look for my website in internet it want to look in my lan. | 08:01 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: you'll find it easier just using the host file | 08:01 |
| blackyboy | ikonia: its my boss order to do a DNS local in the name of website we have | 08:01 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: you'll end up with an over complex soution | 08:01 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: what dns servers do the clients currently use ? | 08:02 |
| blackyboy | now its using 8.8.8.8 | 08:02 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: ok - so that is a problem then | 08:02 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: speak to your boss and either get a.) why he wants it in dns b.) explain that a host file entry would be more realistic | 08:03 |
| blackyboy | ikonia: just now i have setuped my dns server and while i dig for my localhost from dns server its doing to internet. even i have removed the entry 8.8.8.8 from network entry, now there is only 192.168.1.150 for dns-nameservers | 08:03 |
| ikonia | blackyboy forget a local dns server - it's not that simple | 08:04 |
| blackyboy | ikonia: adding hostfile is easier and i want to learn a new way too :) | 08:04 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: hence why you need to find out a.) why you NEED a dns server b.) explain to your boss a host file is more realistic | 08:04 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: oh, so it's not a boss mandate then, you just want to learn | 08:04 |
| blackyboy | ikonia: its order from him. But its a opportunity for me to learn new thinks so me to intrested | 08:05 |
| ikonia | blackyboy: I think you need to explain to him that a host file is a better option as you've have to change your whole resolver setup | 08:06 |
| blackyboy | fine let me try my own thanks @ ikona | 08:07 |

| rindolf | hateball, found it here - http://askubuntu.com/questions/454253/how-to-run-android-sdk-in-ubuntu-64-bits | 08:26 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, wow :) | 08:26 |
| agent_white | I bet there's some netcat fancy things you could do as well, though not mentioned in that list. | 08:26 |
| somsip | agent_white: impressive. I hope I never have to use it :) | 08:27 |
| agent_white | lesshaste: I was curious about your question, and I just googled "chain scp through computers" | 08:27 |
| agent_white | ;PP | 08:27 |
| agent_white | Though apparently, the 'correct' way to say it is multi-hop scp transfer/scp through ssh tunneling/or scp through intermediate host. | 08:28 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, I am trying them all | 08:30 |
| agent_white | lesshaste: Let me know which works best for you! I want to know. | 08:30 |
| agent_white | :) | 08:30 |
| Guest001 | hi all | 08:30 |
| lesshaste | scp -oProxyCommand="ssh B nc -v %h %p" thefile C:destination | 08:31 |
| lesshaste | that works! | 08:31 |
| lesshaste | I don't really understand what it does | 08:31 |
| agent_white | yayay i was right! netcat! | 08:31 |
| agent_white | :D | 08:31 |
| agent_white | probably a reverse ssh | 08:31 |
| hateball | you also have the "-3" option in modern scp | 08:32 |
| hateball | read the manpage ;b | 08:32 |
| agent_white | man scp | 08:32 |
| agent_white | hahaha woops! | 08:33 |
| agent_white | hateball: Nice find! | 08:33 |
| lesshaste | hateball, oh... can you translate the command line to something modern? | 08:33 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, it's very confusing.. I would love to know exactly waht the command line deos | 08:35 |
| johelish | Hey guys! I'm looking for something to monitor and log everytime the internet goes down for my server. We've been having network issues at the office and I want to know exactly how often it happens | 08:36 |
| johelish | Do you have any tips? | 08:36 |
| lesshaste | johelish, ping :) | 08:36 |
| johelish | lesshaste: you mean an infinite ping and then ctrl+f for when it doesn't hit? And what should I ping? Google? | 08:37 |
| agent_white | lesshaste: Basically "scp -oProxyCommand" means that you are sending this command to a proxy (or your 'intermediate/B | 08:37 |
| agent_white | host, who will in turn execute the command following | 08:37 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, what is interesting is that I have to type in the password for C where you don't if you connect from B to C | 08:37 |
| lesshaste | johelish, seems sensible. But what is ctrl+f for here? | 08:38 |
| Ben64 | infinite ping isn't really awesome for that | 08:38 |
| johelish | Ben64: that was what I was thinking | 08:38 |
| johelish | I'm really just intressted in when it doesn't respond | 08:38 |
| agent_white | So, upon receving the scp connection it will proxy (or transfer) that scp connection to your final destination via ssh, using the same hostname/port given to scp (%h and %p) | 08:38 |
| Ben64 | why not just fix the networking problem | 08:39 |
| agent_white | lesshaste: Hmmm... | 08:39 |
| hateball | johelish: nagios | 08:39 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, ok so ... it's all very mysterious to me. B has ssh port forwarding disabled afaik. But this proxycommand works | 08:40 |
| agent_white | Aye, because of netcat. | 08:40 |
| johelish | Ben64: Our provider claim there's no problems and that they have 99.98 % uptime. The server is connected directly to the wall so I'd like to see | 08:40 |
| agent_white | netcat basically is like a little tool for sending/receiving/creating sockets n' stuff. | 08:40 |
| Ben64 | johelish: use crontab and wget or something | 08:40 |
| johelish | That's smart | 08:41 |
| agent_white | lesshaste: In short, you're tunneling a scp connection over ssh. | 08:41 |
| Ben64 | will make a log entry every x minutes or whatever | 08:41 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, aha!! Maybe this could solve my unison problem too :) | 08:41 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, I really want to sync A and C using unison. Currently I am resorting to copying which is bad | 08:42 |
| lesshaste | can netcat solve that for me too? | 08:42 |
| agent_white | I couldn't tell you, I'm not familiar with unison. But I think you should try it :D | 08:42 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, unison rocks! :) | 08:43 |
| lesshaste | agent_white, it's an amazing filesystem synchronisation tool | 08:43 |
| agent_white | Ooo... it's like a nfs... | 08:44 |
| agent_white | I'll have to check it out :D | 08:44 |
| lesshaste | :) | 08:44 |

| waressearcher2 | I got used PC and there is a video card inside it says "radeon" but where can I look exact name of that card ? dmesg ? anywhere else ? | 09:02 |
| DJones | waressearcher2: lspci should give you the info | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip | waressearcher2: lspci | grep -i vga | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip | waressearcher2: sudo lshw -C display | 09:03 |
| waressearcher2 | 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] | 09:04 |
| waressearcher2 | now, question, is that card supported in linux ? | 09:04 |
| waressearcher2 | I know gforce are supported, what about radeon cards ? | 09:04 |
| lesshaste | waressearcher2, they should be | 09:05 |
| lesshaste | waressearcher2, is there a problem you are trying to fix? | 09:06 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, gforce is supported. it just depends on the exact card. old cards get kicked out of nvidia support and you need to run the free dirver then. | 09:06 |
| waressearcher2 | until 10 days ago I used RIVA TNT 16MB, and I used old nvidia driver, and now that PC died and I got another one, used one, Core2Duo E2160, 2GB RAM, and Radeon Video, so now I have one problem to get drivers for radeon | 09:07 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, it should load the radeon free driver and that should work ootb | 09:09 |
| waressearcher2 | https://www.pcarena.hu/oriaskep/ati-radeon-x300se-1756.jpg that one looks like my card, what are my chances to get it working ? | 09:09 |
| waressearcher2 | k1l: "free driver", I need acceleration, what if I want to run gl software | 09:09 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, what is the issue actually? is this a new install? or did you run the old install from the other setup? | 09:09 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, did you look at what the radeon driver got for you? | 09:10 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver | 09:10 |
| k1l | you could try the fglrx driver in the ubuntu repos, but i dont know if it supports your card anymore. you need to find that | 09:10 |
| waressearcher2 | I'm still thinking of should I return that radeon and get some old geforce card or should I dig in to all that stuff trying to setup that radeon, especially when I heard radeon cards are poorely supported | 09:11 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, stop | 09:11 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, please first read the link i just showed you. you dont sem to have any clue and are mixing a lot of things. read that page to get a basis of knowledge, please | 09:12 |
| ActionParsnip | waressearcher2: AMD make drivers for Linux, you will need to check if that GPU is supported by the proprietary driver, otherwise the driver in use will be used. | 09:13 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, just to give you a hint. if you start a pc with a amd/ati card it will load the radeon driver out of the box. | 09:13 |
| waressearcher2 | k1l: that page says "RV370 Radeon X300, M22" is fully supported, but what is "M22" ? | 09:18 |
| k1l | some sort of technical description. | 09:19 |
| k1l | waressearcher2, but again: what is your actual issue? i think you just have a " omg i need the latest amd driver" issue, which in fact is none. | 09:20 |
| k1l | is there anything not working with your video card? | 09:20 |

| hayer_ | Okey, this might sound like a stupid idea but I have my reasons; Can I install a desktop in ubuntu server, configure my software and services, then remove the desktop again? Any downsides? | 09:55 |
| geirha | hayer_: why do you need a "desktop"? | 09:56 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Yep you can. The downside would be ensuring you removed everything. As well as missing a learning experience for setting up a headless server, which is invaluable. | 09:57 |
| agent_white | I would recommend not installing the desktop. | 09:57 |
| hayer_ | agent_white: I know very well how to set up a headless server. The provider of the software/service requires a desktop for their consultant to configure it, boss signed it said "okey, figure it out".. Well, I've never needed a desktop env in a server, so no experience with "installing a desktop in a server".. | 09:58 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Well then there's your answer: you have no choice but to do it :) | 09:59 |
| hayer_ | And yes, I've asked them to configure it on one server and move the config files over -- the just pointed to the contract and said "but your boss said you would fix a desktop, and we won't move the config files" | 09:59 |
| k1l | basically install the ubuntu-desktop package (or another one). might need to install a lightdm, too. | 09:59 |
| agent_white | Odd a consultant would need a environment to do their work. | 09:59 |
| hayer_ | yes, but.. argargarga WHY?! And what is the easiest way to purge all the packages I dont need? | 09:59 |
| hayer_ | agent_white: their mainly windows guys. | 10:00 |
| hayer_ | k1l: so a apt-get install and remove of ubuntu-desktop should be enough? | 10:00 |

| TnSZ | hello there, I'd like to create a partition on a thumb drive and...it is not possible! | 10:03 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Probably. Though may as well ask what packages their software depends on, then remove the rest installed on that date as long as it isn't neeeded. | 10:03 |
| TnSZ | gnome disk utility in 14.04. offers no option to create partition when the disk is blank | 10:03 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: you might have to make a partition table first | 10:03 |
| TnSZ | Ben64, it used to be a one-click thing in disk utility before 14.04. | 10:04 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: nope | 10:04 |
| staticshock007 | hi | 10:04 |
| hayer_ | agent_white: the funny thing is that the software is already installed and running. Its just a rather large config update, no upgrade, new install, only config changes. | 10:04 |
| TnSZ | now this option seems to have been removed.. | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | TnSZ: use gparted instead | 10:04 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Even better then, I suppose. Since you'll have less chance of removing dependencies. | 10:04 |
| TnSZ | well, I used it for years for it...now I explicitly had to install gparted, and | 10:04 |
| agent_white | I would just ask the consultant what additional, unnecessary software he might've used for his tools, and ask him to remove it or notify you of what he did install? | 10:05 |
| TnSZ | when I go for the partition table, it shows me a list of partition table types, among which nothing is familiar, and I dont know which one is correct | 10:05 |
| TnSZ | or suitable for me | 10:05 |
| === Zerant is now known as Guest11123 | ||

| k1l | hayer_, will a sftp not work? | 10:06 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: usually you're going to want msdos | 10:06 |

| hayer_ | k1l: meh, it just seems that they refuse to cooperate and keep repeating "we need the guy" | 10:06 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Aka, "we need a reason to bill you" ;P | 10:06 |
| hayer_ | gui * not guy >_> | 10:06 |
| TnSZ | earlier, in gnome disk utility, there was visibly places buttons over the lower half of the page, 'create partition' 'delete partition' 'lock partition'...why do usable (and useful) things get removed? | 10:07 |
| agent_white | hayer_: Haha, you should pester them aboutit. "Why can't you do it remotely... etc." | 10:07 |
| TnSZ | and what would I have to do with msdos? am I using windows? | 10:07 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: When you choose a filesystem layout, you need to take into consideration if you are going to be using that USB across multiple OS's. | 10:08 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: i don't know if you're using windows, but the vast majority of drives are msdos partition tables | 10:08 |
| agent_white | If only on linux/mac, ext4 is fine. If linux/mac/windows, you need to use fat32. | 10:08 |
| TnSZ | I never was asked to choose msdos.. | 10:09 |
| kevinkien | !status | 10:09 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: Do you know the path of the USB device? | 10:09 |
| TnSZ | yes | 10:09 |
| agent_white | `mkfs.vfat /dev/sdX` | 10:10 |
| Ben64 | which doesn't make a partition table | 10:10 |
| agent_white | rather... `mkfs.vfat /dev/sdX1` ... X being the drive letter, and 1 being the partition. | 10:10 |
| TnSZ | if 'across multiple OSes' means windows, too, I dont suppose it needs to be so much of a concern for a linux user. there is FAT format to choose.. | 10:10 |
| TnSZ | there used to be, at least | 10:11 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: what are you trying to accomplish | 10:11 |
| agent_white | Ben64: Ah yeah, didn't think about that! He just needs to use fdisk. | 10:12 |
| TnSZ | agent_white, that's all I'm talking about. not everyone is commandline-savvy, and why does a useful GUI element gets removed? | 10:12 |
| Ben64 | it hasn't been | 10:12 |
| TnSZ | Ben64, I am trying to accomplish the simplest task of creating a disk partition | 10:12 |

| dandre | why is there such a difference? | 10:13 |
| agent_white | Ben64: More than likely a partition is already sitting there. | 10:13 |
| cfhowlett | dandre, because I | 10:13 |
| Ben64 | agent_white: not according to TnSZ | 10:13 |
| agent_white | Ben64: Oh my mistake! I must have missed that. | 10:14 |
| cfhowlett | dandre, hard to read = hard to follow and understand = less likely to get help | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | dandre: ulimit is used to report file size limit | 10:14 |
| TnSZ | ActionParsnip, yes, in this case the size doesnt matter. but I cant find FAT anywhere. I used to be able to select file format, size, everything..but now that window has disasppeared from gnome disk utility, and gparted shows me a list of part types, mac, msdos, bradpitt, madonna.. | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | dandre: ulimit and lsof show vastly different things, you might want to check what they both do | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | TnSZ: even in gparted? | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | TnSZ: right, so pick msdos | 10:14 |

| ActionParsnip | dandre: http://ss64.com/bash/ulimit.html | 10:16 |

| dandre | no | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | dandre: then why do you care? | 10:20 |
| dandre | I was just surprised by this difference | 10:20 |

| flaritycat | Hi, a fast Q. Is there a simple way to get Firefox Always on Top? - Using Ubuntu, not looking for an extension. | 10:30 |
| k1l | flaritycat: right click on the window bar and select: always on top? | 10:31 |
| flaritycat | Yeah, ok. But if an update window queries, will that top firefox again? | 10:32 |

| cfhowlett | waressearcher2, 1. attitude. less of. 2. this is a support channel. ask or answer support questions is the topic of the day. other discussions are best held in #ubuntu-offtopic or elsewhere. these are the community expectations. | 10:45 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: Learning fdisk is a good idea. Much easier than digging through gui fog. | 10:45 |
| TnSZ | absolutely senseless that gnome disk utility is changed from what it was in 12.10. to what it is in 14.04. | 10:45 |
| waressearcher2 | cfhowlett: what about ubuntu derivatives, are they supported here ? | 10:45 |
| ObrienDave | yes, they are | 10:46 |
| cfhowlett | !flavors | waressearcher2 everything on this list is supported. | 10:46 |
| ubottu | waressearcher2 everything on this list is supported.: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity.

| EriC^^ | maxvi: maybe python+gtk3 | 10:47 |
| maxvi | EriC^^: Or best will be write some console program ? | 10:48 |
| TnSZ | agent_white, I agree. but it doesn't necessitate removing the easy one, and only leaving the hard way in there. whoever is curious can anyway go for the higher level. without having to remove the easy one | 10:48 |
| maxvi | so the people if they need can write gui | 10:48 |
| TnSZ | and whoever doesnt know yet, would not have to dig through things when the time demands other priorities | 10:48 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: Very true. You would know more than I, as I use the terminal instead of the GUI (for reasons such as this -- less prone to drastic changes) | 10:48 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: Maybe you could look into some alternatives? | 10:49 |
| EriC^^ | maxvi: depends on what the program does, etc. | 10:49 |
| cfhowlett | agent_white, I tend to agree. I've created far more problems via point and click gui than I have via gui. | 10:50 |

| ankitshah012 | Ok I will do that | 10:52 |
| agent_white | TnSZ: Also, there are heaps upon heaps of guides using fdisk over any GUI you'll find. | 10:52 |

| maxvi | hateball: or usually all GUI parse console output ? | 10:58 |

| ActionParsnip | boichev: hmm,tbh, never used it....interesting | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | boichev: are you sure its not capital letters that are causing the issue (That was a bug of the installer back in the day) | 11:05 |
| EriC^^ | boichev: a dot works in the middle | 11:05 |
| EriC^^ | sudo useradd -m xx.xx | 11:05 |

| EriC^^ | i wouldn't use it, but it works | 11:06 |
| boichev | EriC^^ useradd is skiping the regexp, adduser does not and tells you to use "--force-badname"... try it | 11:07 |
| === badon_ is now known as badon | ||
| EriC^^ | yeah, just tried it | 11:08 |
| EriC^^ | it seems reasonable though | 11:08 |

| __unik | k1l: yes but it could be a long answer so... | 11:19 |
| __unik | sorry | 11:19 |
| k1l | Douglas: that depends on some specs: what tablet exactly? is the bootloader open to flash other OS? which ubuntu do you mean? the ubuntu-touch or the regular desktop? etc. | 11:19 |
| Douglas | I want to install ubuntu toutch on android in an "orange" tablet | 11:22 |

| k1l | Douglas: well. since its all community support on arm devices (due to the bad driver situation) your best bet is to see if there was one who already made a port working for you. | 11:23 |

| Goran_ | tried the live cd, it works, i can even mount the windows partitions, but the installer says no operating system found, doesnt see partitions! | 11:45 |
| asbjornenge | yo! is there a way to disable ipv6 dns lookups? Ideally for a particular domain... | 11:47 |
| Goran_ | does ubuntu installer work with mbr and efi combination? | 11:47 |
| cfhowlett | !uefi | Goran_ | 11:47 |
| ubottu | Goran_: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 11:47 |
| rypervenche | asbjornenge: Only for a specific domain? Hmmm, not that I know of. What is the problem that you are running into exactly? | 11:48 |
| k1l | Goran_: can you pastebin "sudo fdisk -l"? | 11:49 |
| rypervenche | asbjornenge: You can edit your /etc/gai.conf to change the priority of the IP of that one domain. | 11:52 |
| rypervenche | asbjornenge: If you add the line "precedence ::ffff:1.2.3.4/128 100" where 1.2.3.4 is the IP that you want to take precedence over the rest, that should fix your problem. If the IP of the site changes though, you will need to update it. | 11:56 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: I tried this without any luck.... | 11:58 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: I'm running under lxc (docker) and need to prioritize ipv4 for DNS service discovery | 11:59 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: I tried modifying gai.conf, but does not seem to have any effect at all... I've been testing with curl and a python app I'm trying to run... | 12:00 |
| asbjornenge | curl -4 everything works | 12:00 |
| rypervenche | asbjornenge: Why exactly? What is happening that is causing problems with just using IPv6? | 12:00 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: docker currently does not support ipv6... I have another containers querying docker API and populating the DNS... it can only get ahold of ipv4 addresses, so that is all I can use... | 12:01 |
| Ryvius | Help, I have two monitors and everything opens on the wrong monitor. How do I fix that? | 12:01 |

| rypervenche | asbjornenge: So your choices are to enable IPv6 in the docker container, there are several links to this: http://ryp.io/45 or http://ryp.io/46 . Your second option is to just disable IPv6. Depends on how important IPv6 is to you. | 12:05 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: well, I would like to enable ipv6 for the container, trouble is that the ipv6 addr is not exposed over the docker API, so how do I get ahold for it? | 12:06 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: I have also been trying to disable ipv6 for the container entirely without that stopping the dns AAAA queries... | 12:07 |
| asbjornenge | The container is on 14.04 | 12:07 |
| rypervenche | asbjornenge: It looks as though they added it to iplocator. I might ask in #docker. Are you using the latest version of docker? https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/8319 | 12:09 |
| asbjornenge | rypervenche: oh - YAY! uhm, I'm not on 1.3 yet... did this PR make it in? | 12:10 |
| asbjornenge | I'll dig around... | 12:10 |
| asbjornenge | then it is not too far away anyhow, thats great news! Thanks :-D | 12:10 |

| asbjornenge | rypervenche: quick question while I wait :-P If I disable ipv6 on the host, would it not also be disabled on the containers? | 12:18 |

| ActionParsnip | __unik: dpkg -l | grep linux-image will show the installed kernels. | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: uname -r will show the running kernel. You can uninstall the oild kernels but NOT the running kernel | 13:10 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: you will get about 120Mb per kenel back in space | 13:10 |
| __unik | ActionParsnip: Thank you but I meant I wanted to add more _disk_ space | 13:11 |
| __unik | using | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: if you want to pastebin the output of both commands, I can give the command to run to remove the old kernels. | 13:11 |
| __unik | partition tool | 13:11 |
| __unik | like resize the partition I meant | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: ahhh then you will need ubuntu liveCD and gparted | 13:11 |
| __unik | yes, only gparted didn't work | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: if you dual boot, I suggest you boot to Windows and resize your NTFS to be smaller then resize Ubuntu to the freed space]# | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: obviously be sure you have your important data backed up in case of catastrophe | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | __unik: it wont work in the running OS as the partitions are mounted, so you cannot touch them, hence why you need liveCD | 13:12 |
| __unik | ActionParsnip: thanks. I have 20 GB unlocated disk space | 13:12 |
| __unik | yeah, I will try doing that with an USB. | 13:12 |

| lumia900 | hateball : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615164/ | 13:43 |
| lumia900 | any idea why am still unable to ping my hostname | 13:44 |
| hateball | lumia900: the first row still has two hostnames instead of just localhost | 13:44 |
| sydney | Im having mouse issues. it likes to randomly double or triple click. Here is a video demonstrating https://cloud.openmailbox.org/public.php?service=files&t=88fdb7754327f1f485e1150ae62eb7fc I only clicked once on everything in the video. What can i do to fix that issue? I have the problem in every DE i use. And i know its not my mouse. | 13:44 |
| alteregoa | ActionParsnip, show my pastebin | 13:44 |
| hateball | lumia900: does running "hostname" by itself show the correct name, as entered in /etc/hostname ? | 13:45 |
| lumia900 | 'i have removed the localhost and reboot now | 13:45 |
| trndr | garotosopa: dosen't it use an AMI bios? I'm quite sure tab should be used in bios. | 13:46 |
| hateball | lumia900: ... you're supposed to have "localhost". not "localhost CML-whatever" one name on each row. | 13:46 |
| alteregoa | ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/tJDyPazC | 13:47 |
| lumia900 | having local host alone will resolve this ? | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: not used any of that. I use real RAID if any, where you configure the array in hardware | 13:47 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: not this softwae raid rubbish | 13:48 |
| alteregoa | a real raid is a software raid | 13:48 |
| lumia900 | cause i been tried in one machine adding the CML-whatever .. was worked when i pinged it | 13:48 |
| alteregoa | software raid rubbish? that was 10 year ago | 13:48 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: if you are using dmraid then that is a kernel side thing | 13:48 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: try a PCI-X RAID card with 512Mb cache | 13:48 |
| alteregoa | ok i talk to a other more competent person | 13:48 |
| alteregoa | and if your controller fails | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: the motherboard controller can fail too... | 13:49 |
| alteregoa | read some abstracts about hw vs sw raid and failure rates | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | sydney: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: if you are having to use Ubuntu to confifure the array, its software raid | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: http://linux.die.net/man/8/dmraid | 13:50 |
| alteregoa | ActionParsnip, yeah but a additional HW makes it more complicated, and less fail tolerant | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | alteregoa: its still software managed | 13:50 |
| lumia900 | hateball : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615244/ | 13:50 |
| lumia900 | looks like same issue .. | 13:51 |

| === Owner__ is now known as Guest51920 | ||
| ActionParsnip | lumia900: don't you need the line: 127.0.0.1 CML-INDIAFS so it can resolve CML-INDIAFS to 127.0.0.1 ? | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | sydney: its a single line so no need to pastebin :) | 13:52 |
| sydney | ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l | 13:52 |
| lumia900 | ActionParsnip: i have hostname only for 127.0.1.1 | 13:53 |
| lumia900 | do i need to remove that so that i can resolve on its own | 13:53 |
| garotosopa | trndr: I plugged in an USB keyboard and TAB works in BIOS, but tab doesn't work on EeePC keyboard. So it's a hardware issue? | 13:54 |
| ActionParsnip | lumia900: is the system you cannot ping not the localhost? | 13:55 |
| ActionParsnip | sydney: if you make a fresh ubuntu user, is it the same there? | 13:56 |
| hateball | lumia900: If you can "ping localhost" but not "ping cml-indiafs", have a look in /etc/resolv.conf so it's not trying to search a weird domain or something | 13:56 |
| sydney | BRB ;) | 13:57 |
| lumia900 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615335/ | 13:57 |
| trndr | garotosopa: Likly, you could try to disconnect the keyboard from the mobo and reconnect it. If you're lucky then it's just the ribbon cable which is disloged slightly. | 13:57 |

| gladioacuto | hi there | 14:24 |
| sydney | Anyone with an answer to my problem? | 14:25 |
| nusr | i have a problem. i installed ubuntu wrongly (without a swap). currently i have daily buffer overflow? when i have too many tabs open on mozilla or i have a vm running..just that one last mint if you know what i mean (monty python ref) before the system becomes unresponsive (alt cntrl f1-6 does not do anything)....is this the problem? if i reinstall with a small swap space will that fix the insufficient ram problem and hard reset req? | 14:25 |
| somsip | sydney: have you confirm it's not a hardware issue? | 14:26 |
| gladioacuto | what applets do the power button and battery status in unity-2d-panel link to? Is it possible to use them standalone? | 14:26 |
| somsip | nusr: is it running out of memory? Run top and open your tabs and see what happens. | 14:27 |
| sydney | somsip: Ive never had an issue with it before this latest install a month ago. | 14:27 |
| somsip | sydney: hardware wears out. My old mouse was fine for 7 years, then started double clicking for middle click suddenly. It's worth discounting this possibility before you look for a software solution | 14:27 |
| === Guest9838 is now known as renatu | ||
| nusr | somsip: it's not just the tabs...i will have a Calc notebook open, and maybe a pdf..it's just that one last thing i do..sometimes innocuous like one more tab..and not obvious mistake like opening a new vm | 14:28 |
| somsip | nusr: pick any testable scenario and test it | 14:28 |
| nusr | i think i reset my randomize_va_space back to 2 | 14:28 |
| sydney | somsip: And i don't have this issue in a different account on the same computer. ;) | 14:29 |
| nusr | somsip: so is it just ram insufficient? or do i need a swap space because it presently does not have one. i have top running. what am i looking for? | 14:29 |
| somsip | sydney: so you're happy you've discounted the possibility of a hardware problem. Ok - now you may need software solutions | 14:29 |
| somsip | nusr: for 'free' and 'cached mem' to approach 0 when you enter a testable scenario. If you go all of the way, for it to crash in the same way it usually does when there is 0 mem available | 14:30 |
| somsip | nusr: you could also check the /var/log/syslog for 'OOM' errors, being Out Of Memory, but that might not pick up every case. I'm not sure | 14:32 |
| nusr | somsip: i'm looking at top now and I see how the system can fail...wine consistently hogs 20% cpu.. | 14:33 |
| nusr | somsip: my caches mem is too high..how can i make it go to zero | 14:35 |
| somsip | nusr: it's fine. See http://linuxatemyram.com (from memory, no pun intended) | 14:35 |
| nusr | somsip: ok. that still leaves the question of swap..i don't have one..could that be the problem? shouldn't there be a tiny space available so i can still killall when i need? | 14:37 |
| somsip | nusr: you are getting distracted by the issue of swap. If you don't crash because you have no swap, you don't necessarily need it. If you want to add it, just add it. | 14:37 |
| nusr | somsip: just troubleshooting because i don't know what else can be done is limit mem usage so i always have access to terminal and not buffer overflow | 14:38 |
| somsip | nusr: 'buffer overflow' is probably not the right term here. What do you really mean when you use this phrase? | 14:39 |
| nusr | somsip: i mean i have used all available memory, beyond what my system has | 14:40 |
| upgrader | hello. i am trying to upgrade to new machine that is 64-bit instead of 32-bit. i used "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" to install my old packages onto new machine. must i restart to see/use those packages? "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall" does not show ALL old packages. confused. thanks for help! | 14:41 |
| somsip | nusr: and usually, the kernel will limit mem usage, and it should shut down apps it needs to when it has to. I could be way wrong here but its how I understand it. http://linux-mm.org/OOM_Killer | 14:41 |
| Mugen_Deutsche | hi guys i am installing compiz in my ubuntu 14.4 is that safe ? | 14:42 |
| cable | Mugen_Deutsche does it contain a virus? | 14:42 |
| cable | :p | 14:42 |
| somsip | nusr: so when you encounter an OOM condition, the OS will handle that for you, in a way that is possibly ugly for you, but it should not just crash. Which is what you imply, though you haven't clarified this | 14:43 |
| Mugen_Deutsche | well no. what i mean is if it will not mess up my ubuntu ? | 14:43 |
| Mugen_Deutsche | i am a newbie by the way | 14:43 |
| yeticry | hello, world! | 14:43 |
| somsip | nusr: and that's not a buffer oveflow http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_overflow | 14:44 |

| hans_ | hi im running ubuntu-mate but i cant find my nas drives for sabnzbd | 14:44 |
| somsip | nusr: and have you got to this point while you are watching top to see what happens? Do you have entries in /var/log/syslog when you reboot, or does it 'get better' if you leave it for a while? Does the HD light flash while this is happening? | 14:45 |

| georg | hi guys. I have some trouble to install nvidia-prime on ubuntu14.04/64. When I install the nvidia-331 or nvidia-331-update, lighdm doesn't work or at least I cannot see my gui. When I uninstall mesa-utils, nvidia-* than it works again after a reboot... Any ideas what I should check or where I should find a log file for that? | 15:40 |
| mohn305 | somsip, anyway i want to reinstall mysql apache and phpmyadmin... could u help me | 15:41 |
| somsip | mohn305: I'd rather not to be honest. I don't mind helping a bit, but I don't have time for hand-holding through that process | 15:41 |
| mohn305 | somsip, ah its allright | 15:42 |
| ActionParsnip | mohn305: what do you use phpmyadmin for, exactly? | 15:42 |
| mohn305 | ActionParsnip, for database | 15:43 |

| upgrader | what am i doing wrong in my migration and restore?? | 16:01 |
| tarik | lo | 16:01 |

| Aetion | hello | 16:17 |
| Hurri877 | Hey i'm trying to build a package with gitbuildpackage and i'm encountering some issues and was wondering where I could ask for help? | 16:18 |
| iptable | manlin, zyuiop cat emaillist | cut -d"@" -f2 | cut -d"\\" -f1 | while read line; do echo "${line} USELESS";done > result.txt | 16:22 |
| manlin | iptable: cool... i'm not a big fan of lengthy command :) | 16:24 |
| Jalk | Hi there | 16:24 |
| iptable | or cat emaillist |awk -F'@' '{print $2}' |sed -E 's/\\$//g' | while read line; do echo "${line} USELESS";done > result.txt | 16:25 |
| iptable | that would work better as it only removes the \ at the end... well, it's from memory so might need tweaking :P | 16:25 |
| daznis666 | I would so much like to learn to code, but damn thats hard :“ | 16:25 |
| iptable | manlin, I'm a one-liner-crazed-basher :P | 16:26 |
| Hawkerz | don't all the cool kids use zsh these days | 16:26 |
| iptable | hmpf | 16:26 |
| iptable | zsh is what they teach you in uni. my brother was forced to learn it :/ | 16:27 |
| rom1504 | they teach sh here | 16:27 |
| === SuperLag_ is now known as SuperLag | ||
| iptable | zsh in UK | 16:28 |
| iptable | although that's a bit awkward since bash is the standard on 99% of platforms now. anyways... | 16:28 |
| daznis666 | when i went to uni, they tought me how to "code" in cmd.exe. :D | 16:28 |
| rom1504 | and sh is available on 100% of decent linuxes | 16:28 |
| rom1504 | (ie not android) | 16:29 |
| iptable | ahh, the batch files | 16:29 |
| iptable | brings back memories. choice /n ... | 16:29 |
| iptable | rom1504, sh on most distros is actually just a symlink to bash | 16:29 |
| daznis666 | it would be ok if i could make a bot in cmd.exe.... :D | 16:29 |
| Hawkerz | I feel like MS appropriated a bunch of really good stuff, and then made some really unnecessary changes just to seem different | 16:29 |
| Hawkerz | and over the years they haven't improved any of it | 16:30 |
| Hawkerz | like there is no tab completion by default in windows? wtf | 16:30 |
| daznis666 | no | 16:30 |
| Pici | !offtopic | 16:30 |
| 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! | 16:30 |
| daznis666 | there is no completion. | 16:30 |
| ClickClickNext | I just installed Ubuntu for the first time, well, I'm testing it with a usb pen drive. I cannot access internet now, any advice? | 16:31 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, WiFi or cabled? | 16:31 |
| ClickClickNext | Wifi, i haven't tried connecting the cable yet | 16:32 |
| daznis666 | ClickClickNext, irc does not need internet | 16:32 |
| daznis666 | this trol made my day :D | 16:33 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, if you have no internet, how are you on this chat btw? | 16:34 |
| Pici | People often have other computers... | 16:34 |
| iptable | daznis666, he could be using IRC from phone or tablet... | 16:34 |
| somsip | zyuiop: sed 's/\\.*/ USELESS/g' emaillist | cut -d"@" -f2 | 16:34 |
| iptable | people often do that | 16:35 |
| Hawkerz | Pici, is it really necessary to strictly enforce rules about offtopic conversation over a couple of lines exchanged in a room that's been mostly dead? | 16:35 |
| tgm4883 | I'm going to go out on a limb and say that computer companies had this crazy idea to make a profit and sell more than 1 computer | 16:35 |
| ClickClickNext | Using another computer | 16:35 |
| tgm4883 | Hawkerz: that wasn't enforcement, that was a reminder | 16:35 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, is your WiFi connected on that ubuntu box? | 16:35 |
| ClickClickNext | When I connect ethernet, it states that it is connected. However, the preinstalled firefox cannot get to the internet | 16:35 |
| daznis666 | iptable, holly, i forgot you can access the net from several devices... | 16:35 |
| ClickClickNext | I have modem & a router, I am running ethernet from the router to the machine but still cannot access the web | 16:36 |
| daznis666 | can you connect to the router from firefox? ClickClickNext | 16:37 |
| ClickClickNext | I'll check | 16:37 |
| daznis666 | ClickClickNext, if you can connect to the router via firefox, problem isn't on ubuntu it's mostly elsewhere isp... maybe | 16:38 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, 1. connect via WiFi. 2. execute ifconfig wlan0, 3. check if it displays an IP, like 192.168.0.10 or similar. 4. if so, ping 8.8.8.8. see if that works. 5. retry tests with cable if any tests failed. 6. report back to us. | 16:40 |
| daznis666 | iptable, everyone has own methods, right? :) | 16:41 |
| ClickClickNext | Okay | 16:41 |
| daznis666 | Anyone using chrome on ubuntu 14.04 ? it started to freeze my machine after like 6hours of use. What could it be | 16:42 |
| iptable | daznis666, well, I like methodical troubleshooting by removing one step at a time form the equation until the troubleshooting circle is so small I can troubleshoot it | 16:43 |
| daznis666 | iptable, doing the same, just without a terminal :)) | 16:44 |
| iptable | I don't trust GUI enough | 16:44 |
| Hawkerz | doesn't chrome have an error logging internal url? | 16:44 |
| daznis666 | it doesn't show an error | 16:44 |
| Hawkerz | and yeah, you can launch it from the command line with xtreme verbosity and pipe stderr somewhere useful | 16:44 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, are your video drivers up to date and installed correctly? do you have hardware acceleration turned on in chrome? | 16:45 |
| daznis666 | i use nvidia - 331 | 16:45 |
| daznis666 | ill check | 16:45 |
| iptable | me too | 16:45 |
| gladioacuto | could someone tell me what applications do those funny buttons on unity-2d-panel, like power button battery status, link to? I found out that the wifi button links to nm-applet which now i can use calling in standalone mode, i would like to do the same with the other two | 16:45 |
| iptable | :) | 16:45 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, should i turn of hardware acceleration? | 16:46 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, I was going to suggest turning it on :p | 16:46 |
| daznis666 | it's on | 16:46 |
| Hawkerz | I use chrome, and chrome beta, and both work fine | 16:46 |
| Hawkerz | you sure it's not a tab you're leaving open that's crashing it | 16:47 |
| Hawkerz | could be you didn't install flashplayer correctly or something, idk | 16:47 |
| Ineedhelp | ok so i need help mith getting a gui onto my server. i typed in sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop and i got :no file or such directory. so i did update and it said unable to mkdir /var/lib/sudo/name of server: no such files, so i did upgrade and same thing happens. how the hell do i get an gui onto this thing. do i need to put it onto a flash drive first? | 16:48 |
| erol007 | hi leut | 16:48 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, maybe it's a tab, but it crashed on gmail.com and youtube.com | 16:48 |
| ClickClickNext | upon executing "ifconfig wlan0" it states device not found. Is that suggesting this machine does not have a wireless adapter? | 16:48 |
| alaba | Hi, little question. I need to install Ubuntu to a friend's notebook (Her Windows sucks and she is really annoyed because of that). She has a dual core cpu with 64bit architecture, but she has only 2GB RAM and I guess the bottleneck is the hard disk. Is it better to run 32Bit Ubuntu or 64 bit? On the one hand, 64 bit has bigger words and more instructions (AFAIK), but 32bit has smaller binaries. What version (32 bit or 64 bit?)is proba | 16:48 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, either that OR your WiFi adapter is not compatible | 16:49 |
| daznis666 | alaba, 64bit anyway | 16:49 |
| Hawkerz | alaba, yeah, 64bit | 16:49 |
| Hawkerz | those specs are fine | 16:49 |
| Ineedhelp | ok so i need help mith getting a gui onto my server. i typed in sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop and i got :no file or such directory. so i did update and it said unable to mkdir /var/lib/sudo/name of server: no such files, so i did upgrade and same thing happens. how the hell do i get an gui onto this thing. do i need to put it onto a flash drive first? | 16:49 |
| iptable | ClickClickNext, run lspci and lsusb and see if it shows something "wifi-like" ;) | 16:50 |
| daznis666 | alaba, 64 or 32 has nothing to do with ram capacy | 16:50 |
| Hawkerz | I ran ubuntu (barely) on a tiny netbook with 1gb ram and an atom processor | 16:50 |
| Hawkerz | (I would not recommend that) | 16:50 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, crashed as in it gives you taht 'this page is not responding' thing? | 16:50 |
| Hawkerz | or crashed as in, became unresonsive | 16:50 |
| Hawkerz | ^ spell that correctly | 16:50 |
| rubiksmomo | I installed Ubuntu 3 times today. Every time I tried to load it up it kept complaining "cryptsetup failed, bad passphrase or options". What could cause it? | 16:50 |
| Ineedhelp | i dont mean to sound like a moron, just creating a jinzora music server for a school project. | 16:50 |
| iptable | rubiksmomo, trying to do encryption? | 16:50 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, loading, usually it loads very fast, but after alot of browsing chrome gets tired and freezes, it does not crash. | 16:51 |
| rubiksmomo | iptable: Yeah | 16:51 |
| iptable | rubiksmomo, set a simple password and try again. one that doesn't have special shars | 16:51 |
| alaba | i know, but 64bit can address more and due to not having more than 4gb, 64bit has no advantages | 16:51 |
| somsip | iptable: there is no real need to put a gui on a server. What do you need it for? | 16:51 |
| alaba | that was my consideration | 16:51 |
| iptable | rubiksmomo, my guess it that the keyboard setup is different during install than once installed | 16:51 |
| iptable | somsip, I never used a GUI on a server... wrong person ;) | 16:51 |
| daznis666 | alaba, add like 4gb swap space to be good :) | 16:51 |
| rubiksmomo | iptable: I guess I have to go install it 4th time... | 16:52 |
| alaba | daznis666 well, I'd like to minimize hard disk access | 16:52 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, do you scroll with a mousewheel? | 16:52 |
| somsip | iptable: oops. Meant for Ineedhelp | 16:52 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, yep | 16:53 |
| somsip | Ineedhelp: so why do you need a gui on a server? | 16:53 |
| Ineedhelp | i would much rather work in command line then gui (im a networker) but theres no command book and the commands dont make anysence to my tiny cisco brain. | 16:53 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, does the page lag while scrolling? | 16:53 |
| Hawkerz | like, takes a second to catch up? | 16:53 |
| iptable | Ineedhelp, learn it? | 16:53 |
| iptable | Ineedhelp, for a server, most things cannot be done from a GUI | 16:53 |
| daznis666 | alaba, it wont use all 4gb , but if it has enough space it will choke to death. | 16:54 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, nop | 16:54 |
| ClickClickNext | Okay | 16:54 |
| iptable | Ineedhelp, so it will not help you. linux server software is a command-line-configuration software. | 16:54 |
| upgrader | anyone know about migrating packages from 32-bit 14.04 to 64-bit 14.04, is there a reason "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" would not work properly? | 16:54 |
| Hawkerz | hmmk, that's really weird. Do you use adblock, daznis666 | 16:54 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, ye, everyone does. | 16:54 |
| iptable | upgrader, you are about 6 motnhs late. 10.04 is not supported and packages no longer available for the GUI | 16:54 |
| gladioacuto | my sound in 12.04 LTS doesn't work anymore, what's going on? At the startup lightdm reproduces the standard sound...in my fluxbox session now no sound are played | 16:54 |
| Hawkerz | hum, that's really odd then | 16:55 |
| daznis666 | iptable, it's 14.04 | 16:55 |
| Hawkerz | what version of chrome? | 16:55 |
| somsip | upgrader: you have 32 bit installed and you want to upgrade to 64 bit? Nooooo... | 16:55 |
| iptable | daznis666, I know | 16:55 |
| upgrader | iptable: 14.04 system to 14.04 system | 16:55 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, Version 38.0.2125.104 (64-bit) | 16:55 |
| iptable | oh | 16:55 |
| Hawkerz | Version 37.0.2062.120 (64-bit) | 16:55 |
| iptable | daznis666, upgrader sorry. eye-number-reading-issue | 16:55 |
| Hawkerz | this is a new issue daznis666? | 16:56 |
| Ineedhelp | all i need is to set up a LAMP webserver, which for me is much easier using gui, and put jinzora on. but i keep hitting tiny roadblocks that i have to search for hours to find a solution too. so id be much easier for me to have a gui. and the damned thing just ont download | 16:56 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, it's from chrome stable ppa from google | 16:56 |
| upgrader | somsip: so i can't take package list from 32-bit system and ask 64-bit system to install those same packages? | 16:56 |
| iptable | upgrader, I wasn't aware you can migrate to 64 bit from 32 bit. that's libc and kernel and all package and library upgrades. I would expect it to break during upgrade | 16:56 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, yeah, but were you using chrome before you updated to this version? | 16:56 |
| alaba | daznis666 it's not about the 4GB, it's about having a fluent system that does not need to access the harddrive the whole time. so, you recommend 64bit anyway? | 16:56 |
| Hawkerz | it's possible that the upgrade breaks things | 16:56 |
| daznis666 | alaba, yea | 16:56 |
| Hawkerz | alaba, 64 bit doesn't access the haddrive anymore than 32 bit would | 16:57 |
| Ineedhelp | all the videos and how to's n jinzora use a gui. there are none that can find using a command line interface | 16:57 |
| somsip | upgrader: that's not what you implied in the last question. Upgrading from 32 to 64 is theoretically possible but a practical nightmare (according to the one source I found who tried to document doing it) | 16:57 |
| upgrader | it appears to me that dselect-upgrade isn't doing its job, but maybe you're suggesting that's because 64-bit system won't allow certain packages.. | 16:57 |
| iptable | Ineedhelp, for server software? like what? | 16:57 |
| Hawkerz | upgrader, so you're not trying to upgrade from 32bit 10.04 to 64bit 14.04? | 16:57 |
| iptable | upgrader, that's just one of the issues | 16:57 |
| alaba | hawkerz i know, but binaries are bigger if they are compiled for 64bit and i have only 2gb ram. | 16:57 |
| Hawkerz | or alaba | 16:58 |
| Hawkerz | whatever, you're all confusing me | 16:58 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, well i installed sigil an ebook format tool and then ubuntu sdk dev crap http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa/ubuntu and updated the software maybe something is bad in there, before there was no freeze | 16:58 |
| iptable | alaba, with 2GB RAM, use xubuntu/linux mint or similar and don't use chrome and you will be fine | 16:58 |
| Ineedhelp | its a Jinzora Music program put into a web server setup using LAMP. | 16:58 |
| upgrader | somsip: machine2 has 64-bit installed, machine1 i use every day, but it is 32-bit 14.04. how can i make machine2 look like machine1? | 16:58 |
| iptable | upgrader, reinstall? | 16:58 |
| alaba | iptable: mint sucks | 16:58 |
| Hawkerz | 2gb of RAM is still plenty to run ubuntu, but yeah, performance will be better with one of the lighter versions | 16:58 |
| iptable | alaba, personal opinion. I'm guessing you haven't tried it for years... | 16:59 |
| somsip | upgrader: ah - I see now. I'd reinstall too. | 16:59 |
| iptable | alaba, I use mint. use xubuntu then or buy more RAM | 16:59 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, is it possible that chrome updated when you installed all that? | 16:59 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, doubt it | 16:59 |
| Snaps | I did a release upgrade to utopic but it fails to install the linux-image-3.16.0-23-generic package due to the initrd being missing. Ive tried everything I can come up with to no avail: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8617162/ Any Ideas? | 16:59 |
| daznis666 | alaba, use minimal cd and take all the lightweight stuff custom | 17:00 |
| Hawkerz | hmmk, would be a weird issue anyawy. Who knows, I bet the ubuntu sdk fucked you up | 17:00 |
| unixt | cia | 17:00 |
| Hawkerz | i'd try purging it and checking :p | 17:00 |
| * trollolol is away: I'm busy | 17:00 | |
| upgrader | hawkerz, iptable, somsip: maybe i don't know meaning of migrate vs. upgrade vs. reinstall, but i hope my last comment was clear: machine2 has 64-bit installed, machine1 i use every day, but it is 32-bit 14.04. how can i make machine2 look like machine1? I don't know how a "reinstall" will help. The 64-bit is a "fresh install" off live USB and is waiting to be populated with machine1's properties, packages, files, /home folder, etc. | 17:00 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, is there a way to remove those upgrades, like downgrade? | 17:00 |
| somsip | alaba: I put minimal install with openbox on a 500MB RAM 701 eeepc and it was fine for simple stuff. | 17:00 |
| alaba | iptable: I installed it several friends and everytime it got a corrupted database after a few months... | 17:00 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, well i don't actually think it was an upgrade issue because the beta worked fine | 17:01 |
| iptable | Snaps, utopic is not supported as it's still beta | 17:01 |
| alaba | i want default install because it's for a friend that knows _nothing_ about computers^^ | 17:01 |
| Ineedhelp | all i need the gui for is initial setup and then i can run and configure everything else remotely. but without this gui im a bag of pupies thats been thrown into a river. | 17:01 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, upgrade from a third party source | 17:01 |
| somsip | upgrader: it seems like you want to do this in one clean command. I'd suggest installing what packages you need sort-of as you need them | 17:01 |
| iptable | upgrader, install the packages manually and copy the configs over | 17:01 |
| Snaps | iptable: for two more days, yeah, so this might be a good thing to find prior to that if it potentially affects more people than me. | 17:01 |
| iptable | Snaps, kernel packages are still being updated etc | 17:02 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, upgrades? you can set package versions, I don't think apt has 'downgrade', which is somewhat silly | 17:02 |
| iptable | Snaps, #ubuntu+1 is for 14.10 | 17:02 |
| Snaps | iptable: okay, thanks! | 17:02 |
| somsip | Hawkerz: you can 'downgrade' to other candidates, but they tend to be limited in what is available | 17:02 |
| alaba | are there any hybrid images of ubuntu? | 17:02 |
| somsip | alaba: define hybrid? | 17:03 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, but if you suspect the issue came from the ubuntu dev ppa, you can disable it and remove new packages it installed, and downgrade ones it upgraded | 17:03 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, how? | 17:03 |
| somsip | !ppa-purge | daznis666 | 17:03 |
| ubottu | daznis666: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 17:03 |
| * iptable goes to enjoy an evening | 17:03 | |
| Hawkerz | ^ what the bot said | 17:03 |
| alaba | well, an image containing 32bit and 64 bit. I don't want to burn 2 dvd's | 17:03 |
| somsip | alaba: no | 17:03 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, i can do it with gui, why would i do it with terminal ? :D | 17:04 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, you can't | 17:04 |
| Hawkerz | well | 17:04 |
| Hawkerz | you can | 17:04 |
| Hawkerz | but it's really tedious | 17:04 |
| upgrader | somsip, iptable: if i restore /home folder now on machine2, do packages one at a time on machine2 as needed, will they overwrite /home settings? meaning, i have skype, or backintime, or r-base packages with files in /home/.skype, will install of skype later write on tome of /home/.skype and lose me my personalized settings and files? | 17:04 |
| Hawkerz | ppa-purge will go through the ppa in question, see what is installed from there on your local machine, completely remove it and revert to the version in the repositories, and disable the ppa you are purging | 17:05 |
| upgrader | write on *top of* | 17:05 |
| Hawkerz | it's damn useful, I wouldn't recommend doing it by hand | 17:05 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, but this makes no sense, if they upgrades were bad, it should lag and freeze instantly, but it does not | 17:05 |
| Hawkerz | I mean, I don't know what that ppa provides, it could easly overwrite some library and replace it with one that has a memory leak | 17:05 |
| Hawkerz | who knows | 17:06 |
| somsip | upgrader: sensible installers should not overwrite existing conf files without checking what you want to do with them | 17:06 |
| Hawkerz | it should take like 4 seconds to remove it, then you can see if that fixes, if so, problem solved | 17:06 |
| Hawkerz | if not, well, now you know how to purge ppa's properly | 17:06 |
| daznis666 | ok | 17:06 |
| somsip | upgrader: but if they do, you always have the original on machine1 | 17:06 |
| Hawkerz | purging ppa's is a skill you will want to have if you ever do a release upgrade | 17:07 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, i want to be a linux guru | 17:07 |
| upgrader | somsip, iptable, hawkerz: many thanks. i will have to consider if this "packages as needed" approach makes migration worth it, but i'm tempted by 64-bit plus double RAM in machine2 as a better everyday use machine. thanks again! =) | 17:08 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, if you can purge ppa's you're a guru | 17:09 |
| somsip | upgrader: np. When I reinstalled for 14.04 I knew what main packages I wanted, but missed loads. I found them as I needed to use them. It wasn't a big deal. | 17:09 |
| Hawkerz | i will get you a tshirt made to reflect this occasion. | 17:09 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, ppa purging is easy as pie :D | 17:09 |
| Hawkerz | compared with the process if you had built all of that from source yourself? yes. | 17:10 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, i let others build | 17:11 |
| daznis666 | i believe in peoplez skillz | 17:11 |
| klaas_ | hey, i have a question.... | 17:11 |
| klaas_ | i have a laptop with linux mint on it.... | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !mint | klaas_ | 17:11 |
| ubottu | klaas_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 17:11 |
| richac | ubottu: which derivatives are supported? | 17:12 |
| ubottu | richac: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 17:12 |
| richac | lol | 17:12 |
| somsip | !flavors | richac | 17:12 |
| ubottu | richac: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 17:12 |
| klaas_ | oh, i thought i can also come here, because mint is based on ubuntu? | 17:12 |
| ActionParsnip | klaas_: none of the "ubuntu based" distributions are supported by the Ubuntu community. It has it's own community and support | 17:12 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: sunab sigil-git, hm, it worked on the first one, but it does not work on the second one ppa. O_o | 17:13 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, what was the ppa called? | 17:13 |
| ActionParsnip | klaas_: similarly, ubuntu is based on debian, but if you ask for Ubuntu support in #debian you will be pointed here | 17:13 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, ppa:sunab/sigil-git | 17:13 |
| Tecan | gravity wars in the repository's is kinda problematic | 17:13 |
| Hawkerz | ah, daznis666: sudo ppa-purge ppa:sunab/sigil-git | 17:14 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, i told you im a linux guru, it didn't work | 17:14 |
| Hawkerz | run sudo apt-get update | 17:14 |
| Hawkerz | then do it | 17:14 |
| rubiksmomo | Finally, after 4 installs I have a working OS. Maybe there should be a warning when choosing encryption key "you may not be able to load Ubuntu if you use special characters in the key"... | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | daznis666: linux guru huh.... | 17:15 |
| daznis666 | ActionParsnip, wannabe :D | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | daznis666: dont we all :) | 17:15 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: or just avoid encryption..... | 17:15 |
| Hawkerz | Linux still makes me feel like an idiot all the time, when I encounter bizarre issues and obsessively try to correct them | 17:16 |
| rubiksmomo | ActionParsnip: I kinda expected it to work like other encryption systems | 17:16 |
| ryanarchy | regarding upgrading, if I move from 13.04, it will not remove my current kernel, correct? | 17:16 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: not something I use personally | 17:16 |
| Hawkerz | ryanarchy, it will replace your kernel with the one in the 14.04 repos, I would hope | 17:17 |
| rubiksmomo | I like privacy | 17:17 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Hawkerz, don't worry too much, Linux is probably idiotic in a few respects too | 17:17 |
| Hawkerz | also it will replace a ton of your system with 14.04 compatible stuff which would then have to be downgraded to use the kernel you have now, ryanarchy | 17:17 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, ok im good, i remember the time when i had to fix one issue when i've plugged out the DC from a netbook it went into suspend mode... | 17:18 |
| tgm4883 | rubiksmomo: is there a bug report for that? | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: i have it, my login pasword keeps people out. Privacy achieved | 17:18 |
| rubiksmomo | tgm4883: I haven't found | 17:18 |
| ryanarchy | Hawkerz, that's potentially annoying considering I'm running Xen on the machine I want to upgrade | 17:18 |
| Hawkerz | daznis666, I spent 12 hours with a team of engineers trying to figure out why a server wouldn't connect to the network -- none of us thought to check that the ethernet cable was actually plugged into the switch | 17:18 |
| tgm4883 | rubiksmomo: you should file one then. I could attempt to reproduce the issue if you want | 17:18 |
| rubiksmomo | ActionParsnip: Just load up another OS and read all your files | 17:19 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, hahahahahahhahaa :DDDD | 17:19 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: yes but you have to get to my kit first | 17:19 |
| richac | according to tripwire, almost every important file on my pc has been modified since the 18th and I can't figure out why | 17:19 |
| rubiksmomo | tgm4883: OK, I'll file one | 17:19 |
| rubiksmomo | ActionParsnip: kit? | 17:19 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, i've made an ebook yesterday and wrote bussiness on the cover..... :D gimp does not have spelling.... :D | 17:19 |
| Ineedhelp | ok so apparently, when i go to boot options and press ubuntu nothing happens. so i have to boot into the first hard drive, i have 3 drives that are raided together using ubuntu's raid software. first drive has a 16gb parition the othe two have a 8gb partition. and i cant write to any of the harddrives i boot into. What could be the problem and why cant i boot into ubuntu. | 17:19 |
| rubiksmomo | ActionParsnip: physical access? | 17:20 |
| richac | 2137 binaries modified, 4 tripwire binaries lol, 22638 libraries, 411 root file-system executables, 6 tripwire data files, 143 system boot changes, 2051 root libraries, 14485 system boot files, 2904 config files, 189 boot scripts, 2 security control fiels, 115 root config files, | 17:20 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: the physical hardware | 17:20 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: yes | 17:20 |
| Hawkerz | no surprise, it's probably intended to be that way so artists don't feel judged when they intentionally misspell things for artistic value | 17:20 |
| richac | i looked at apt and dpkg history, I don't know what could have affected this | 17:20 |
| daznis666 | Hawkerz, maybe they are tired and playing it COOL | 17:20 |
| jhutchins | richac: Did you do a software udate? | 17:21 |
| daznis666 | When is the 14.10 comming out? | 17:21 |
| rubiksmomo | ActionParsnip: True, but you never knows who'll get to it some day :) | 17:21 |
| richac | jhutchins: i'm looking at the apt and dpkg history, but i'm not sure if any of these updates would affect all those files? | 17:21 |
| somsip | daznis666: due on 23rd | 17:21 |
| Ineedhelp | ok so apparently, when i go to boot options and press ubuntu nothing happens. so i have to boot into the first hard drive, i have 3 drives that are raided together using ubuntu's raid software. first drive has a 16gb parition the othe two have a 8gb partition. and i cant write to any of the harddrives i boot into. What could be the problem and why cant i boot into ubuntu | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip | rubiksmomo: im careful with my stuff. I'm not some clown shoes who doesnt look after my gear | 17:21 |
| daznis666 | somsip, thx cool 3 days to go. | 17:21 |
| tgm4883 | richac: we are even less sure, since we don't know the contents of either of those files | 17:22 |
| richac | tgm4883: would you mind if I pastebin? | 17:22 |
| jhutchins | richac: Either you trust tripwire, and accept that something altered your system, or you don't, in which case why run it? | 17:22 |
| tgm4883 | richac: you can, I don't guarentee I can help you but that would be one of the first steps to getting help | 17:22 |
| Ineedhelp | ok so apparently, when i go to boot options and press ubuntu nothing happens. so i have to boot into the first hard drive, i have 3 drives that are raided together using ubuntu's raid software. first drive has a 16gb parition the othe two have a 8gb partition. and i cant write to any of the harddrives i boot into. What could be the problem and why cant i boot into ubuntu | 17:23 |
| tgm4883 | jhutchins: I think it's, he trusts tripwire that something modified his system, and he is trying to figure out if it's because of updates or if his system is compromised | 17:23 |
| tgm4883 | jhutchins: which IMHO sounds like a pretty reasonable stance | 17:23 |
| daznis666 | Ineedhelp, you have no grub loader in the master record O_o | 17:23 |

| mistawright | hi guys i have an issue with logrotate and rsyslog. whenever logrotate roates logs it doesnt forward the logs I had it forwarding through udp initially. I have to restart rsyslog in order for it to send again. | 17:28 |
| mistawright | does anyone know how to fix this? | 17:28 |
| daznis666 | Ineedhelp, i have no idea, if you can't write you need sudo - admin access | 17:28 |
| richac | somsip: i installed those | 17:28 |
| richac | ya i was checking one of the devices on my lan | 17:29 |
| somsip | richac: so...your concern is exactly what? To make sure each file reported by tripwire is one related to the ton of software you installed? Bit tricky... | 17:29 |
| vitimiti | Hi | 17:29 |
| sl1rpy | where is the xorg.conf for ubuntu 14.04? | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sl1rpy: one doesn't ship by default. It will need to be in /etc/X11 as normal | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sl1rpy: if one is present it will be used | 17:30 |
| richac | there has to be one update, that can affect all the files man. a "ton" of updates shouldn't even do that | 17:30 |
| somsip | richac: you probably need to rebuild your tripwire DB (or run whatever is usually run regularly) after you install any packages that might cause false positives. Then you know when it's you and when it's not | 17:30 |
| richac | somsip: it runs everyday | 17:30 |
| rubiksmomo | Maybe this is the bug I'm having with 14.04.1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1362333 | 17:31 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1362333 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "After reboot of Ubuntu installation, password for LVM encryption is not accepted" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 17:31 |
| richac | last i updated was right before these updates | 17:31 |
| richac | so i'm sorry but nmap and etherape, are not going to affect every binary on my system, something else must of | 17:31 |
| somsip | richac: so your routine whould be to update right after you do updates too. So you know all changes you have made. Not sure how you would backtrack to confirm the changes now | 17:31 |
| somsip | *should be | 17:31 |
| richac | somsip: yes i thought I was apparenlty not | 17:32 |
| richac | I guess I should just reformat again :( | 17:32 |
| somsip | richac: or look for other evidence of an intrusion. Up to you like | 17:32 |
| richac | somsip: so the answer is you have no idea which of those packages could affect all the binaries, so I will reformat | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | richac: you could also inspect all of the packages you installed | 17:33 |
| richac | my linux bites the dust again..... | 17:33 |

| Ineedhelp | daznis666, i am admin and i have sudo. it still wont let me write to the disks. heres my problem, i linked all 3 drives to ubuntu raid software(raid 5 parity) and i cant actually access the ubuntu boot option( might be a fake option might not) so i think my solution is to acces that ubuntu boot option, but shit aint doin its job. | 17:33 |
| richac | well i mean i was going to do an apt-file search or somethign, or policy | 17:33 |
| richac | tgm4883: linux is very insecure | 17:34 |
| tgm4883 | richac: oh really | 17:34 |
| richac | lol yes | 17:34 |
| tgm4883 | richac: and you are running it because...? | 17:34 |
| richac | i've been at this for like 4 weeks now, its terrible | 17:34 |
| ActionParsnip | richac: its only as secure as you make it. DXefault Ubuntu config isnt too bad | 17:34 |
| daznis666 | Ineedhelp, have no idea, never had this problem - maybe installation went wrong - you know shit happens. | 17:34 |
| Spec | i'm pretty sure linux is a tool and its security is dependent upon configuraiton | 17:34 |
| richac | tgm4883: for giggles, and because i put lxde on some family old laptops | 17:35 |
| richac | since xp is no longer supported and their machiens are old | 17:35 |
| tgm4883 | richac: my understanding is that you're reformatting because you don't understand how to update tripwire | 17:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Spec: exactly | 17:35 |
| richac | tgm4883: then you don't understand very much | 17:35 |
| richac | and weren't paying attention to a dam thing I said | 17:35 |
| tgm4883 | richac: so what is your OS of choice then (out of curiosity) | 17:35 |
| richac | tgm4883: stop responding to me, sorry your mad | 17:35 |
| richac | tgm4883: windows 7 | 17:35 |
| ActionParsnip | richac: you're not your | 17:35 |
| richac | ActionParsnip: noone was talking to U | 17:36 |
| tgm4883 | richac: what do you run on windows to verify binaries? | 17:36 |
| richac | i'm using file integrity, cause my linux keeps getting borked lol | 17:37 |
| richac | i don't understand why does it say startup archives unpack, and then all these libs are they from curl? what called for curl? | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | richac: you're right, linux is really insecure | 17:38 |
| ActionParsnip | richac: sounds like a PEBCAC issue | 17:38 |
| Ineedhelp | daznis666, so thats what i thought. ive restarted this server literally 20 times. wiped everything and started from scratch. my first thought was that the hardware raid controller was fucked up( figured ths out around the 15th time) so i used the ubuntu software and shit still aint workin. my next thought is to not even raid. or maybee my partitions are wrong. but i followed the 14.04 help guide for that so i doubt it | 17:38 |
| richac | tgm4883: part of it, is because most of the software is old and outdated, and has less eyes on it | 17:38 |
| * tgm4883 tells his admins we're switching to windows and IIS | 17:38 | |
| ActionParsnip | Ineedhelp: how do you figuratively restart a server 20 times? | 17:38 |
| richac | tgm4883: if all your concerned about is random drive bys, and not being actually targeted, then linux is fine lol | 17:39 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip: you press the restart button and nothing happens | 17:39 |
| daznis666 | tgm4883, :D | 17:39 |
| ActionParsnip | tgm4883: no, why the need for "literally" ? | 17:39 |
| richac | tgm4883: or if you don't plan to do anything on your pc but turn it on, then ya linux is fine. | 17:39 |
| tgm4883 | richac: that must be why everyone turns to microsoft for security | 17:39 |
| richac | tgm4883: yes most of the security tools in linux are severely deprecated | 17:40 |

"i reset the server" means(implies) that i just turned it on and off while "i literally reset" implies a hard reset meaning to wipe everything from the drives. we use this reset hard reset literally reset lingo in my team of networkers. just something i say | 17:45 |

| supay | would it be a good idea to run Ubuntu on Macbook Pro Retina? | 18:07 |
| chowder | my advice would be to download the mainline kernel, update grub, and run Ubuntu with each kernel (one at a time of course). When you run it with your custom kernel output the configuration and save it to a file. Then do the same with the mainline kernel. After that you can use diff to see what is different between the two files. | 18:08 |

| chowder | tozen: cat /proc/config.gz or /boot/config or /boot/config-$(uname -r) | 18:09 |

| chowder | random question: I've always wondered why apt-get update; will update everything except the kernel headers but the update-manager will update the kernel headers | 18:44 |
| bubbasaures | sjO, There is the app update manager that is what I'm addressing, apt-get update apt-get upgrade and for kernels included apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:45 |
| bubbasaures | terminal commands^^^^^^^^ | 18:45 |
| chowder | lotuspsychje: I'm on a no carb diet. :/ | 18:45 |
| gladioacuto | back again | 18:45 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: welcome back | 18:45 |
| gladioacuto | chowder, all fine for the new user | 18:45 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: that is quite weird | 18:45 |
| bubbasaures | chowder is no good without butter and cream | 18:46 |
| lotuspsychje | gladioacuto: so the old users config must be messed up | 18:46 |
| gladioacuto | lotuspsychje, yes, in some way i don't know | 18:46 |
| j1729 | Hello ! | 18:46 |
| lotuspsychje | !glutenfree cookie | 18:46 |
| j1729 | How are you guys ? :) | 18:46 |
| gladioacuto | so is it possible to restore user onfig to defaults? which are the reference files? | 18:46 |
| j1729 | Are there any bugs or something to fix or do in order to get started with open source ? | 18:47 |
| lotuspsychje | gladioacuto: try the users /home folder and show hidden files for configs | 18:47 |
| gladioacuto | that's why i like command line and simple wms though...;) | 18:47 |
| Quatroking | quick question - can I create windows 8 bootup sticks using linux | 18:47 |
| Quatroking | and if so, how | 18:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Quatroking: winusb can make win7 usb's not sure bout win8 | 18:48 |
| bubbasaures | j1729, No, just install an OS, or try it out. | 18:48 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: I love fluxbox but it takes so much to get it looking the way I want it. Ideally I'd just have a small dock with a clock and notifications and another with minimized windows. I wonder if if I can put minimized windows in the fluxbox menu... | 18:48 |
| k1l | Quatroking: i am not aware of. better ask the ##windows guys about that | 18:48 |
| Quatroking | k1l, thanks for that suggestion, I will. Wouldn't be surprised if they redirected me back to this channel though, lol | 18:48 |
| Quatroking | lotuspsychje, I'll look into that. On windows the win8 bootup sticks are actually made using software made for win7 so who knows | 18:48 |
| lotuspsychje | Quatroking: winusb needs ppa adding, so be carefull ok | 18:50 |
| ex-ada | I know it's probably not recommended, but how do I always be root? | 18:50 |
| chowder | Quatroking: well you can always save the disk image and then write it directly to the USB stick | 18:50 |
| j1729 | bubbasaures, thanks. I am on ubuntu 12.04. How does one start contributing to ubuntu ? by writing codes | 18:50 |
| gladioacuto | chowder, for sure you can! take a look at fluxbox menu "Workspaces" | 18:50 |
| Quatroking | chowder, previous experience tells me that that doesn't really work too well though | 18:50 |
| lotuspsychje | j1729: developing? | 18:50 |
| gladioacuto | lotuspsychje, which config files should i copy back? | 18:51 |
| j1729 | lotuspsychje , yes. How can I get involved ? | 18:51 |
| lotuspsychje | j1729: #ubuntu-devel | 18:51 |
| chowder | Quatroking: I use brasero. I have a LEGIT (GO AWAY MICROSOFT) copy of Windows 8.1 that I ripped off a DVD. The image file is sitting on my hard drive. | 18:51 |
| j1729 | lotuspsychje, thanks a lot buddy ! Cheers. | 18:51 |
| lotuspsychje | j1729: or #ubuntu-touch also needs many help for the touch version on mobiles | 18:51 |
| chowder | Quatroking: I suppose you could try dd if=/path/to/image/file of=/path/to/device | 18:52 |
| j1729 | lotuspsychje, thanks again ! | 18:52 |
| lotuspsychje | j1729: thank you for helpin the devs :p | 18:52 |
| bubbasaures | j1729, You can do it with support, here, is ITT an end or working goal at the moment? | 18:52 |
| chowder | Quatroking: but read the documentation before you use dd. If you write something incorrectly it will destroy all of your data. | 18:52 |
| Hurri877 | why does gitdch append the string ubuntu to all my versions? | 18:52 |
| Quatroking | chowder, I'll go and try winusb first | 18:53 |
| chowder | Quatroking: that'd probably be best. If that doesn't work I'd look into making a bootable USB stick. You can install Grub to a USB stick which can in turn boot Windows. | 18:53 |
| alexgl | need a refresher, I have a samba user that I want to let use of a drive i mounted at /mnt/samba-user for that share to be available i need to give samba-user permissions to use that folder. is it chmod 775 that i need to use there? | 18:53 |
| ex-ada | I mean, it's kind of a drag always having to type gksudo nautilus *every* time I want to apply changes to a .whatever folder | 18:53 |
| ex-ada | so is there a way to always be root? | 18:54 |
| ex-ada | or have root access? | 18:54 |
| gladioacuto | chowder, do you know if it is possible to call the unity-2d-panel battery button app and power button one standalon?I did it for the wifi button, which points to nm-applet, dunno for the others...it would be great for me | 18:54 |
| Jonathan19919991 | Hey, I just installed ubuntu 14.10 october 17 build and I cannot log in because it didn't save somehow that I want to use Hungarian as the input language so I cannot type my password. Any advice? | 18:54 |
| k1l | ex-ada: if you need to be root all the time you are doing something wrong at all | 18:54 |
| j1729 | bubbasaures, I want to be a part of the development community :) | 18:54 |
| bubbasaures | Quatroking, This app works nicely, if used, use gparted to make the fat32 on the usb. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ | 18:55 |
| jhutchins | alexgl: Samba runs as root and has it's own permissions configuration. | 18:55 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: I'm really not sure. I don't even use Unity. I use gnome3. | 18:55 |
| lotuspsychje | bubbasaures: i also use multiboot, for all my ubuntu iso's on 1 stick | 18:55 |
| lotuspsychje | bubbasaures: +1 | 18:55 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: I think there's a unity channel here on freenode though | 18:55 |

| bubbasaures | lotuspsychje, Yeah nice app. ;) | 18:55 |
| lotuspsychje | bubbasaures: a bit weird method to install, do you know location of a proper .deb? | 18:56 |
| opus_ | Hello, anyone else getting crashes every 3-4 hours on Intel Corporation Mobile GM965 ? My display goes blank but my machine is up. This is after doing apt-get update/upgrade | 18:57 |
| jhutchins | ex-ada: Running graphical programs as root can have very destructive and unexpected consequences. Strongly recommended against, with the exception of using gksudo to configure settings. | 18:57 |
| gladioacuto | chowder, if you use gnome3, are there equivalent for gnome that i can use to those i wrote above? | 18:57 |
| lotuspsychje | opus_: did you install ubuntu with internet enabled? | 18:57 |
| opus_ | I think I turned on crash reporting after the fact if thats what you are referring to | 18:57 |
| === Jonathan19919991 is now known as Jonathan1991 | ||

| bubbasaures | lotuspsychje, Not sure on a deb but this works fine adding the repo and key. http://liveusb.info/dotclear/index.php?pages/install | 18:58 |
| rww | Jonathan1991: 14.10 questions go in #ubuntu+1 | 18:58 |

| bekks | !root | ex-ada | 18:58 |
| ubottu | ex-ada: 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/RootSudo | 18:58 |
| === jottr_ is now known as jottr | ||
| bekks | ex-ada: You always have root access using sudo. | 18:59 |
| ex-ada | thanks bekks, but what I'm trying to do is not have to use the sudo command or have to type gksudo nautilus every time I want to make .whatever changes | 18:59 |
| k1l | ex-ada: why do you want be have root access all the time? there is no need for that on ubuntu tbh | 18:59 |
| OerHeks | ex-ada, you can have a terminalsession as root: sudo -i | 18:59 |
| ex-ada | kll, why not? | 18:59 |
| k1l | ex-ada: why? | 19:00 |
| ex-ada | OerHeks, okay, what about having root access all the time | 19:00 |
| bekks | ex-ada: you can always use sudo and configure sudo to your needs. | 19:00 |
| lotuspsychje | bubbasaures: tnx for the addline, i did the .sh install last time :p | 19:00 |
| k1l | ex-ada: can you give serious examples? beeing root all the time is a bad windows habit. | 19:00 |
| opus_ | Do you think my laptop is dying or is it a new driver update for my X11 crashes? | 19:00 |
| ex-ada | k1l, it's mostly for convenience\ | 19:00 |
| alexgl | jhutchins: if there is an active connection or if a user just logged onto the server through samba, would it show under the gadmin-samba gui in the connections tab? | 19:00 |
| bubbasaures | lotuspsychje, I always ssh as well, had to look for the other. | 19:00 |
| ex-ada | k1l, I agree, but I want it anyway. How do you do it? | 19:00 |
| bekks | opus_: you ould take a look at the logs in /var/log/ | 19:00 |
| lotuspsychje | bubbasaures: no i mean the .sh script install of multiboot | 19:01 |
| k1l | ex-ada: ubuntu is build on the basis of sudo. the regular user doesnt need to be root all the time. | 19:01 |
| ex-ada | k1l, okay, granted, it's a bad idea. But even if I don't need to, how do I do it? | 19:01 |
| DesuDesu | story time: the first person i told how to become permanent root crashed his system within a few hours | 19:01 |
| k1l | ex-ada: the answer was already given. but dont come in here and complain your system is ruined. | 19:01 |
| tgm4883 | ex-ada: also, based on channel rules, even if we wanted to (which we don't ), we couldn't tell you how to do it | 19:01 |
| opus_ | bekks, what log file would it be in? thanks | 19:01 |
| ex-ada | hm.. I'll have to look for it | 19:01 |
| lotuspsychje | opus_: also check your lshw -C video what driver loaded | 19:01 |
| bekks | ex-ada: you have to read the message of the bot closely, again. | 19:02 |
| k1l | DesuDesu: exactly that is the issue with the "but is need to be root all the time"-guys | 19:02 |
| opus_ | Weird, kern.log doesn't show anything of the regular | 19:03 |
| opus_ | ? | 19:03 |
| Vadomo | hi | 19:03 |
| ex-ada | I guess it's not too huge of a deal... it's just an extra step. | 19:03 |
| bekks | opus_: Take a look at /var/log/syslog more likely | 19:03 |
| gladioacuto | is there any settings-daemon launched in ubuntu by default? | 19:04 |
| bekks | gladioacuto: Whats a settings daemon? | 19:04 |
| Zephyr1139 | Has 14.10 reached the LTS state or is it still in (bleeding) alpha state? | 19:04 |
| gladioacuto | bekks, like gnome-settings-daemon | 19:04 |
| Pici | Zephyr1139: 14.10 will never be an LTS. | 19:04 |
| tgm4883 | Zephyr1139: 14.10 is not an LTS release | 19:05 |
| k1l | Zephyr1139: 14.10 will not be a lts at all | 19:05 |
| lotuspsychje | gladioacuto: you can edit stuff in dconf-editor | 19:05 |
| mgolisch | hm why doesnt --name and --class work on gnome-terminal | 19:05 |
| mgolisch | is this expected behavior? | 19:05 |
| opus_ | Hey guys I found the error! | 19:05 |
| opus_ | http://pastebin.com/M501HPU4 | 19:05 |
| Pici | Zephyr1139: The official release date is sometime on the 23rd. LTS releases are every 2 years, 14.04 (April 2014) 16.04 (April 2016), etc. | 19:05 |
| mgolisch | also is there some other way to add some property to a started terminal so that i could distinguish it among other instances of gnome-terminal ? | 19:06 |
| gladioacuto | lotuspsychje, i've no dconf-editor by default in 12.04 LTS | 19:06 |
| gladioacuto | lotuspsychje, i meant any script that loads settings by default | 19:06 |
| opus_ | any else have that issue before? | 19:06 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: sorry I didn't reply I was a bit busy. As for the gnome apps I | 19:07 |
| chowder | I'm not sure off the top of my head if there's a standalone battery app. I'm sure there is but gnome3 is so different from gnome2 that I just can't be sure. | 19:07 |
| lotuspsychje | gladioacuto: make your life easy and reinstall it clean with whatever you need | 19:07 |
| chowder | gladioacuto: I'd look into xfce apps | 19:07 |
| k1l | opus_: your system freezes occasionaly? | 19:08 |
| Zephyr1139 | Pici, do releases toggle between XX.04 (stable) an XX.10 (experimental) ? | 19:08 |
| Pici | Zephyr1139: No. | 19:08 |
| Pici | Zephyr1139: 04 Means april .10 Means October. | 19:08 |
| eer | Is it possible to open 2 instances of VLC player? When I watch a video and open another one the one open is replaced by the 2nd one? How can I open 2? | 19:08 |
| gladioacuto | lotuspsychje, i didn't uninstall anything! i just want my default user run correctly with unity. But the problem at this point, is that unity seems to me to be a so "close" wm, it seems to be so far from the linux phylosophy... | 19:09 |
| opus_ | k1l : yes, every 4-6 hours | 19:09 |
| rww | Zephyr1139: Ubuntu version numbers are year.month. Ubuntu releases an LTS every two years. | 19:09 |
| rww | Zephyr1139: so 16.04, 14.04, 12.04, 10.04, 6.06 (delayed) | 19:09 |
| opus_ | k1l: Whenever I do video or do a bunch of windowing | 19:09 |
| lotuspsychje | eer: open vlc from terminal twice | 19:10 |
| bekks | gladioacuto: And whats your actual issue besides a "settings daemon"? | 19:10 |
| eer | lotuspsychje, is there no other way? | 19:10 |
| eer | lotuspsychje, only by using the terminal? | 19:10 |
| lotuspsychje | eer: i tryed rightmouse, but there's no new window option so.. | 19:10 |
| opus_ | People are saying to switch to UXA ? any idea? | 19:11 |
| k1l | opus_: i had that, too on 14.04 and before. but not on 14.10 so far. i did not have a solution for this. | 19:11 |
| * o11c can't help but think it would decrease confusing if Ubuntu released in *any* month other than .10 | 19:11 | |
| o11c | everybody always tries to say 14.1 | 19:11 |
| lotuspsychje | opus_: did you check your additional driver list? | 19:11 |
| o11c | but with 14.09 or 14.11 they couldn't do that | 19:11 |
| gladioacuto | bekks, i was trying to understand why from some point onward audio stopped working in my default user fluxbox session in ubuntu. I argued that there is a settings daemon not launched in this custom session so a lot of things could not work properly | 19:11 |
| opus_ | lotuspsychje? | 19:12 |
| eer | ok thx | 19:12 |
| lotuspsychje | opus_: to see what intel drivers loaded | 19:12 |
| chowder | anyone use tiling window managers? I use gnome3 and sometimes its a hassle to switch between different workspaces. I like the idea of having custom layouts but I have a laptop. Are tiling WMs better suited to larger screens? HALP PLZ | 19:12 |
| bekks | gladioacuto: It stopped working after doing what exactly? | 19:12 |
| opus_ | http://www.mail-archive.com/desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net/msg346182.html | 19:12 |
| opus_ | lotuspsychje, I'm not running Unity btw so I think you are referring to some kind of GUI configorator? | 19:13 |
| gladioacuto | bekks, i don't know, otherwise i would not have been heere...apparently nothing, i didn't uninstall anything | 19:13 |
| k1l | opus_: that seems to be caused by the intel driver. i had the same with my intel hd4000 card on unity | 19:14 |
| bekks | gladioacuto: Maybe it's because you installed something? Things dont stop working without a reason. :) | 19:14 |
| opus_ | This guy is also having the same issue http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2248299 | 19:14 |
| gladioacuto | bekks, yes i installed a lot of things | 19:15 |
| bekks | gladioacuto: So thats not "nothing". | 19:15 |

| lotuspsychje | chowder: i also use: swappiness=10 en grub boot with 'quiet splash' off | 19:34 |
| teward | oritromax: keep in mind Skype isn't maintained by the Ubuntu people - therhe's not too much that can be done | 19:34 |
| bekks | opus_: you could try using the nightly driver as suggested in the first link. | 19:34 |
| k1l | opus_: is there a bug on launchpad to it? does it link to the actual freedesktop bugs? | 19:34 |
| oritromax | I know, i just wanted to know, if there is any workaround that can solve my problem | 19:35 |
| elham | help plz!!! I wanna listen to music :d but there is no sound and I have no idea what to do | 19:35 |
| chowder | oritromax: its kind of hard for anyone to troubleshoot skype since its closed source. This doesn't mean that no one can help but its something you should keep in mind. | 19:35 |
| k1l | opus_: if the ubuntu devs dont have that error they dont get to know | 19:35 |
| teward | oritromax: you're probably better off asking on the Skype site, but unless you ask your actual question nobody can help | 19:35 |
| lotuspsychje | oritromax: try make another user, and download skype from there | 19:35 |
| teward | oritromax: that said, troublemaking is difficult because closed-source | 19:35 |
| chowder | elham: take some ice. dip a washrag in it. now put it on your face. wait. | 19:35 |
| chowder | elham: open your terminal and type this: ps aux | grep "pulse" | 19:36 |

| chowder | elham: tell me the output | 19:36 |
| lotuspsychje | oritromax: you have an optimus graphics card? | 19:36 |
| oritromax | The actual question is, skype doesn't run from dashboard, but in terminal it shows: skype: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtOpenGL.so.4: undefined symbol: _ZNK14QWidgetPrivate17hasHeightForWidthEv | 19:36 |

| oritromax | and when i changed the environment from /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop - it worked | 19:38 |
| oritromax | but couldn't use that fix in 64bit, not working | 19:38 |
| chowder | elham: pulseaudio is running and that's what outputs the sound. was the sound working before? did you make any changes to your setup? | 19:39 |
| chowder | elham: if you need more in depth help you can pm me. I know the chat can be a bit much at times. | 19:40 |
| elham | chowder: yeah it was ok but when I used to voice chat with skype my friend didn't have my sound so I dealed a bit with sound setting. I didn't change anything (as I remember) but suddenly voice muted! and until that time I have no sound :d | 19:43 |
| elham | chowder: any suggestion wht to do? | 19:43 |
| chowder | elham: do you see a volume icon on your machine? try raising the volume. You might have just muted it. | 19:44 |
| elham | chowder: yes I see! no! I tested it before :d the sound is up! | 19:45 |
| chowder | elham: what application did you use to mess with the volume? PulseAudio can be made to output to the speakers or take input from a program such as skype | 19:45 |
| oritromax | elham: did you checked the Sounds Settings? | 19:45 |
| elham | chowder: oom.I just used sound setting from taskbar! nothing else. | 19:46 |
| elham | oritromax: yeah. I did everything I can! but problem didn't fix | 19:47 |
| * elham feels like a poor girl with no sound laptop :D | 19:47 | |
| oritromax | elham: i had kinda same problem before. There was some settings problem ! | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | elham: open a tail -f /var/log/syslog en fool around with sound a bit | 19:47 |
| elham | oritromax: and what did u do? | 19:48 |
| oritromax | Did some googling and found the solution | 19:48 |
| oritromax | But before that, check the system log as "lotuspsychje" suggested | 19:49 |
| elham | oritromax: I googled it before! but no answer | 19:49 |
| elham | oritromax: lotuspsychje http://pastebin.com/m9HvpB8J | 19:49 |

| lotuspsychje | !sound | elham | 19:53 |
| ubottu | elham: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

| ex-ada | good news, though. Starcraft works flawlessly. | 19:53 |
| ex-ada | the first one, I mean | 19:53 |
| ex-ada | I haven't actually tested the second one. | 19:53 |
| lotuspsychje | ex-ada: how did you run it on ubuntu? | 19:53 |
| ex-ada | lotuspsychje, I had WINE and installed it normally and it worked | 19:53 |
| ex-ada | Oh, I also applied a patch, which also worked fine | 19:53 |
| elham | lotuspsychje: :d yes. I tried to make an iso image and have a live session and check the sound there! but there was a problem with sdb :d | 19:53 |
| lotuspsychje | !info playonlinux | ex-ada check also this package | 19:54 |
| ubottu | ex-ada check also this package: playonlinux (source: playonlinux): front-end for Wine. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 4.2.2-1 (trusty), package size 1107 kB, installed size 4208 kB | 19:54 |
| hyde | is there a standard way to debug into Ubuntu libraries? I've got the debug symbols, and I've got the stack trace and disassembly view in in debugger (Qt Creator with gdb as backend). Alternative is of course to provide path for the sources and get them where ever I want, but before I do that, I'd like to know if there's a standard location found | 19:54 |
| hyde | "automatically" | 19:54 |
| ex-ada | thanks lotuspsychje | 19:54 |
| lotuspsychje | !debug | hyde | 19:54 |
| ubottu | hyde: For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 19:54 |
| ex-ada | I'm trying to determine whether I should keep unity. When I first had a vanilla install of ubuntu, unity was slow.. but since I "fixed" it, everything is very fast. | 19:55 |
| ex-ada | so right now I'm just wondering if I like it aesthetically... | 19:55 |
| ex-ada | I like gnome 2, but not gnome 3.. hmm | 19:56 |
| lotuspsychje | ex-ada: unity is very intuitive once you get used to it | 19:56 |
| bubbasaures | ex-ada, unity is tiny, a plugin in compiz, just install another DE I would not try and remove unity. | 19:56 |
| ex-ada | lotuspsychje, yeah, it doesn't give me problems.. especially since I turned off the web suggestions | 19:56 |
| ex-ada | bubbasaures, oh yeah, I wouldn't remove it either.. I just might use something else. Maybe. | 19:56 |
| lotuspsychje | ex-ada: ofcourse we cant discuss flavors right, everyone chooses whats right for his needs | 19:57 |
| ex-ada | but it isn't bad. | 19:57 |
| ex-ada | and since I added the classic menu indicator, it's great. | 19:57 |
| ex-ada | canonical should have the classic menu indicator in addition to unity by default. that would be great | 19:58 |
| hyde | lotuspsychje: thanks, but I didn't find an answer from that page. I do have the debug symbols, and they appear to be loaded by debugger... So perhaps this means, I do need to specify the path to the sources. | 19:58 |
| lotuspsychje | ex-ada: you can also drag your fav icons onto unity left bar | 19:58 |
| Ryu_Fitzgerald | does anyone know where I can it an older version of the world of warcraft installer? | 19:58 |

| JokesOnYou77 | I'm forwarding a local port on my machine to a port on a remote machine with ssh -L, but I would like to allow other machines on the LAN of my local machine to access that port (and use that forwarding). How can I do that? | 19:59 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu_Fitzgerald: did you try playonlinux yet? | 19:59 |
| ex-ada | lotuspsychje, I did know that. What I don't like is how unity sometimes puts newly installed programs onto the bar without asking me. But it's a minor gripe, really | 19:59 |
| Ryu_Fitzgerald | yes and so far no response, will be waiting in that channel | 19:59 |
| pablopf16 | hi | 19:59 |
| lotuspsychje | !iptables | JokesOnYou77 | 20:00 |
| ubottu | JokesOnYou77: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 20:00 |

| === jottr_ is now known as jottr | ||
| John_John_ | yes i would prefer to | 20:02 |
| hyde | John_John_: if yes, then I'd install Lubuntu variant, then optionally uninstall some of the unnecessary desktop apps that come with it | 20:02 |
| hyde | of course you can also install the server, then apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 20:02 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu_Fitzgerald: maybe this can help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft | 20:03 |
| John_John_ | and what about the mail server ? | 20:03 |

| elham | lotuspsychje: what will happen if I remove the pulseaudio and installing it again ? :d | 20:04 |
| lotuspsychje | chowder: no never | 20:04 |
| hyde | John_John_: you can select to install it on installation I think... but you'd still need to configure it I think... | 20:04 |

| FooMunki | Hey has anyone here seen an error like: iptables v1.4.14: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) | 20:04 |
| chowder | elham: your issues are in how pulse is configured | 20:05 |
| hyde | anyway, it's just an apt-get away for a desktop ubuntu, so not much difference, AFAIK | 20:05 |
| Ryu_Fitzgerald | lotuspsychje, thanks but that just takes me to the website to get the instaler | 20:05 |
| richac | you can uninstall pulse and you will have sound with alsa | 20:05 |
| FooMunki | I’m lost with it - Am i right in thinking its because i need to recompile my kernal | 20:05 |
| richac | but you will lose pavucontrol and an eq if you have one installed | 20:05 |
| elham | chowder: yeah! any way to reset all the configuration to defult one? t | 20:05 |
| richac | the you use alsamixer | 20:05 |
| John_John_ | so i guess i would start with the server eddition and then apt-get lubuntu-desktop right ? | 20:06 |

| lotuspsychje | chowder: i dumped winblows for years now :p | 20:06 |

| Nectar | Hi. when installing samba, should i plug an ethernet between the two computers or does i haveto go though a router? | 21:11 |
| install002 | it seems to be in the same system (I did a reinstall early before) | 21:11 |
| install002 | EriC^^: it-s in the same /mnt/boot so it`s ok | 21:11 |
| Ben64 | Nectar: when installing samba, you don't need to worry about ethernet at all, to use samba, you do need a network. you can use a crossover cable to directly connect two computers, but using a router would be much easier | 21:11 |
| Siraris | I have always struggled with file permissions in Linux so I’m hoping someone can help me. I’m trying to use fputcsv to write a csv to a directory. The directory is /tmp/MyDir/mysubdir.

| Nectar | Ben64: My router is abit out of the way, the computers are next to each other. ist a crossover cable an ethernet? | 21:13 |

| install002 | EriC^^: thank you, brb | 21:17 |
| Ben64 | Siraris: because you want to write to it from your user | 21:18 |

| Siraris | bekks: I agree | 21:19 |
| Ben64 | its a folder in /tmp you're serving using http for a csv file, what is the problem? | 21:19 |

| Stinky_Feet | Linnak: If Ubuntu is the guest, you can tell VirtualBox (on the host) to install the guest additions, but it will need the kernel headrs and minimal tool chain installled on the guest, because it will try to compile it on the fly. | 23:06 |
| fakam | ubuntu runs slow on my laptop | 23:06 |
| bekks | Linnak: And "they" know Ubuntu, they even provide official packages and installation instructions. I already gave you the link. | 23:07 |
| fakam | 4 gigs of memory 1.2ghz | 23:07 |
| rww | fakam: I said Ubuntu GNOME, not normal Ubuntu | 23:07 |
| acerspyro | Why doesn't Ubuntu come with Pavucontrol? | 23:07 |
| fakam | ahh | 23:07 |
| rww | fakam: http://ubuntugnome.org/ | 23:07 |
| richac | acerspyro: you can just use alsamixer from terminal | 23:07 |
| fakam | i guess i will stick with lxde since its faster | 23:08 |
| acerspyro | richac: any normal user would install it right after the OS is done installing, or will be told to. | 23:08 |
| fakam | thanks rww | 23:08 |
| Linnak | bekks: I'm looking for the line which says use distro packages I read last week | 23:08 |
| Chotaz | EriC^^: apt-get cant seem to find testdisk, is it not available on the general repos_ | 23:08 |
| bekks | Linnak: There never was a line like that on the link I gave you. | 23:08 |
| EriC^^ | Chotaz: try to add the universe repo | 23:09 |
| richac | acerspyro: i don't use it, i do use the pulse audio equalizer though | 23:09 |
| Jeffrey_f | join #thunderbird | 23:09 |
| acerspyro | richac: And why would it not be included with pavucontrol??? | 23:10 |
| acerspyro | Now if I want basic stuff I need to install a ton of things that should come with pulseaudio in the first place... | 23:10 |
| squinty | Jeffrey_f: irc.mozilla.org /join #thunderbird | 23:11 |
| Jeffrey_f | squinty: Yep. I knew what I wanted to type, my finger missed the slash | 23:12 |
| squinty | Jeffrey_f: the offical thunderbird channel is on irc.mozilla.org not here on freenode | 23:12 |

| sjuxax | Suppose I want to wipe the only filesystem on the server but still be able to trigger a shutdown from the shell. It seems likely /sbin/shutdown is dynamically linked. How could I do this? | 23:13 |
| nuke1989 | i have only port 80 open and that cant be changed. So i want to make a server and route traffic through that server so that i can finally access whatever port i want. any help? :D | 23:14 |
| Jeffrey_f | Thanks squinty | 23:14 |
| EriC^^ | sjuxax: ? | 23:14 |
| squinty | Jeffrey_f: yw | 23:14 |
| === IdleOne is now known as Guest88208 | ||
| sjuxax | EriC^^: I'm intentionally destroying the filesystem mounted at /. I want to turn off the machine after the carnage is complete. How do I do that, considering all shutdown binaries will be removed? I copied /sbin/shutdown into /tmp, but since it's dynamically linked, it will just be sad that its friends at /lib and/or /usr/lib aren't around anymore and will not actually shut off my machine. | 23:22 |
| daftykins | that doesn't sound like a legitimate problem. | 23:22 |
| rww | alt-sysrq-b | 23:23 |
| rww | or is it a remote server | 23:23 |
| Kawaiola | Would I run into any problems running server services on a desktop verzion of ubuntu | 23:24 |
| rww | It has security impact because you have more stuff running. Otherwise, no. | 23:24 |
| kbrosnan | and the desktop would be running so there would be less free ram and other system resources | 23:25 |
| Kawaiola | rww, Okay so less security, otherwise the services should work just the same? | 23:25 |
| rww | Kawaiola: yep | 23:25 |
| Kawaiola | I'm trying to make a web interface with wordpress that people in my house can access locally but I want to use elementary os gui . | 23:26 |
| Kawaiola | Can you download any desktop distro on top of ubuntu server? | 23:27 |
| rww | Elementary OS isn't Ubuntu, it's a derivative that we don't support. | 23:28 |
| EriC^^ | Kawaiola: you can sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 23:28 |
| rww | You can install any desktop environment in our repositories just fine on Ubuntu Server, yes. | 23:28 |
| Kawaiola | EriC^^, rww I know it isn't Ubuntu but I figured they were pretty similar, and I had ubuntu-desktop but it had too much installed with it. | 23:29 |
| EriC^^ | you can try xubuntu lubuntu ubuntu-gnome etc. | 23:31 |
| Kawaiola | EriC^^, I saw those as well as lxde, I guess I have just been real stuck on elementary os but if I can use it to run my lamp and samba services then I guess I don't need to install it on top of ubuntu server. | 23:32 |
| awesomess3 | what games do you play? | 23:33 |
| richac | bf3, skyrim, mwo, rift | 23:33 |
| pkruz | can I use bootable pendrive with linux to install system on VBox? | 23:33 |
| awesomess3 | richac, all of those on ubuntu? | 23:34 |
| EriC^^ | pkruz: there's no need, you can use the .iso directly | 23:34 |
| richac | no all on windows lol | 23:34 |
| richac | on ubuntu css and dota2 i guess | 23:34 |
| k1l_ | awesomess3: for that sort of polls better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:37 |
| sjuxax | rww: it's remote | 23:37 |
| dreki | TF2, CS:GO, Xcom:enemy unknown, dota2 all work great for me on ubuntu. | 23:37 |
| dreki | Oh, I thought we were in offtopic | 23:38 |
| parshap | Does anyone know how to regenerate GraphicsMagick's type.mgk configuration file to include new system fonts? | 23:45 |
| tapout | when it comes to printers, how do we know if it's supported or not? | 23:48 |
| Magni | #argentina | 23:48 |
| squinty | tapout: http://www.openprinting.org/printers | 23:57 |
| bubbasaures | tapout, Open printers and see if it is recognized. | 23:59 |
