[00:01] jbud: try ldd /mnt/sdb1/bin/bash [00:01] jbud: does it show any missing shared libraries? [00:03] hola [00:03] mgolisch: it shows a few libraries which are pointing to their associated link, except for one: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 [00:05] I was having problems with that earlier (sbin/init required it, and it was a broken link), so I linked it to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.17.so [00:07] mgolisch: Its weird though, file /mnt/sdb1/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 says: symbolic link to `/mnt/sdb1/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.17.so` but shouldn't it be `/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.17.so` ? [00:08] list [00:08] jbud: no its a symlink in the chroot seems correct to me that it actualy points to a location in the symlink [00:09] ah chroot [00:11] jbud: it probably uses relative paths for the symlink [00:11] how do i join ununtu again please [00:11] make sure the libraries it depends on actualy exist in the chroot [00:14] mgolisch: wait, its also showing me this: "linux-vdso.so.1 => " not pointing to anything [00:14] I think that means there is no file associated with that expected library? [00:15] Anony: " /join ubuntu-offtopic " ?? [00:16] jbud: does the file exist in the chroot? [00:17] waite is this ubuntu [00:17] chat [00:17] mgolisch: I'm not really sure how to find it though, locate linux-vdso.so.1 show nothing [00:18] Anony: Yeah, ^^ [00:18] look in /mnt/sdb1/lib64 [00:20] anyone knows how to put more colors in the terminal outputs? Like blue on some files when you type "ls" [00:21] check out dircolors [00:22] mgolisch: Its not there.. Also I changed the symlink for ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 to ld-2.19.so which is in the same directory (/lib64) [00:22] ls --color [00:22] ? [00:22] I think the other symlinks are all using their 2.19 counterparts now [00:23] hey [00:23] Okay thanks.. Because i'm back from LinuxMint and i remember more colors in the terminal! [00:23] how your going [00:23] Not only with the ls command === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [00:35] hi [00:35] hey [00:36] guys help [00:42] fgifffffffffffffff [00:47] DF3D2: so are you logging in via text mode, and using startx? === Granis` is now known as Granis [00:51] is there a ubuntu help chat [00:52] any one give me the thing to join ubuntu help [00:54] EBOLA [00:54] IS [00:54] ??

I seem to find at least 1 person with an issue with every card. lol [01:03] PaulVern: I check newegg & amazon reviews just to see if anyone has actually mentioned successfully running ubuntu before I buy... [01:03] <[SLB]> how do i look for/report a bug? [01:03] <[SLB]> oh there it is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zram-config/+bug/1319802 [01:03] Ubuntu bug 1319802 in zram-config (Ubuntu) "package zram-config 0.2 failed to install/upgrade: there is no script in the new version of the package - giving up" [Undecided,Confirmed] [01:05] PaulVern: yeah a lot of the times you need to use nomodeset to get into the GUI at first then install the additional drivers, beyond that I haven't really had problems with Nvidia stuff [01:07] Decided I'll get a 750 GTX for linux; since it has good reviews for Ubuntu, and keep the R9 280x for the occasions when I want to game in Windows. [01:07] in Windows, I can have both cards in the mobo at once [01:07] I hope linux can handle that too [01:07] PaulVern: SLI? dunno what the R9 280x is? [01:07] Vapor-X [01:08] PaulVern: or run one native, and the other in a VM... [01:08] Loshki, Which hypervisor can let me do this? [01:08] you saying I can give a VM access to my GPU? [01:09] PaulVern: looks like they have to be the same card for SLI [01:10] PaulVern: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/256.35/README/sli.html [01:10] wafflej0ck, Yeah, I'm aware of SLI and X-Fire. Used them both in the past. Doesn't work for unsupported things like the wii emulator [01:11] not to mention it's hot, noisy and power consuming [01:11] lol [01:11] yeah so you just want the two cards working indpenendently? [01:11] too many ens in there [01:11] lol [01:11] I want: [01:11] Boot into windows, AMD GPU is used, nvidia ignored [01:12] boot into linux, AMD GPU is ignored, nvidia is used [01:12] lol [01:12] hmm yeah gotcha [01:12] in windows, I can run AMD + Nvidia (used to do it when I was mining) [01:12] I know on the linux side you can blacklist some of the kernel modules/drivers [01:12] just hoping linux will let me do this [01:12] cool [01:12] that might work but never done it myself [01:15] PaulVern: sorry, if I knew I'd tell you :-) [01:15] no worries. Since I'm only looking at a 750 now ($130) I don't mind taking the risk [01:15] thanks for the help usr13, wafflej0ck and Loshki [01:16] PaulVern: yup good luck [01:17] hello [01:17] GOD PREDESTINES PEOPLE TO HEAVEN AND HELL ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WILL [01:18] !ops | GOD PREDESTINES PEOPLE TO HEAVEN AND HELL ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WILL [01:18] GOD PREDESTINES PEOPLE TO HEAVEN AND HELL ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WILL: Help!

Here is what I do: mkdir /home/pathuato/public_html [03:03] how to download mandrake 14.10 LTS [03:03] * reisio rolls eyes [03:04] pathauto: sudo ln -s /home/pathuato/public_html /var/www/site-name [03:04] Im just a tad confused because according to the tutorial, I shouldn't have to do anything [03:04] any ideas? [03:04] pathauto: point to the tutorial you're using [03:05] https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/networking.html [03:05] is that an application error, edition [03:06] pathauto: cat > /home/pathauto/public_html/index.html [Enter] Hello World [03:06] yes. but the config file is correct, since all the 3rd party libraries have been installed. [03:06] pathauto: Just use symlinks. (It makes the whole process easier.) [03:07] well you like compiled it, what condition causes that to happen when you grep the source code [03:07] so, an application error. [03:07] reisio: I the man pages mention [off] being displayed for deviced set to that but nothing about how to set the off flag, any ideas? [03:09] um [03:10] i installed plexmediaserver then uninstalled it but it stills shows on boot and there's a plexmediaserver.conf file in /etc/init -- should I just delete this file? [03:10] yeah you just need to look for what conditions are checked prior [03:10] because if you dont put the actual error message in here or in google that's the only way i can help you get it spelled out for you [03:11] god ubuntu users are stupid twats that suck [03:11] pathauto: you want to me to help you step through troubleshooting this or are usr13's instructions working for ya?

[03:11] oh i guess i didnt uninstall it nevermind [03:13] dw1: when you uninstalled it did you do it with a command or through the software center? [03:13] i think i just didnt uninstall it, my bad [03:13] guys help [03:13] dw1: if you use apt-get remove it only gets rid of the binaries but leaves behind the conf files, if you do apt-get purge it gets rid of everything [03:13] nautilus doesn't create thumbnails of videos [03:14] wafflej0ck: i did purge then manually removed everything else remaining in locate [03:14] wafflej0ck: prob solved thx [03:14] dw1: yeah sure just sounded like a remove not purge but glad you got it sorted anyhow [03:14] dw1: dpkg -L packagename is good to see the full list of files a package installs too just FYI [03:14] f [03:15] wafflej0ck: oh yea === pzp is now known as sorrybutnotsorry === sorrybutnotsorry is now known as SorryButNotSorry [03:17] mozzarella: in the preferences there are options for preview [03:18] mozzarella: by default it does for 10mb or less and local files only [03:18] wafflej0ck: not sure, yet. [03:18] here's the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8681397/ [03:19] mozzarella: seeing lots of this when I ran nautilus from the terminal though ** (totem-video-thumbnailer:14392): WARNING **: Could not take screenshot: failed to retrieve or convert video frame [03:19] doesn't work [03:19] pathauto: lynx --dump localhost/my-site #For testing....

[03:19] but not mp4 files, mov files, etc. [03:19] mozzarella: depends on that totem-video-thumbnailer [03:20] mozzarella: run nautilus from a terminal you'll see the warnings [03:20] mozzarella: not sure what to do about it though [03:22] Hey guys, GamerBob here. i ran out of space on my main drive for games so i got new 120gb ssd. and i cant use it? Could you help me with the steps to get it working? i have gparted open and its unallocated. [03:23] mozzarella: apparently says it should work for any video file totem can play http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/totem-video-thumbnailer.1.html [03:23] how can I force nautilus to regenerate the thumbnails? [03:23] i figure i first wanna format it to ext4 first right? [03:23] GamerBob: you really just need to setup a new partition on the drive [03:23] it doesn't want to [03:24] wafflej0ck, yeah i tried that and i wasnt allowed to write a file on it. one sec ill partition it and format to ext4 [03:24] GamerBob: yeah after you define the partition you'll just format it as ext4 or whatever filesystem you want and should be good to go pretty much [03:24] should i leave the label blank or can i name it gamedrive? [03:25] Hello. I'm having problems watching DRM-protected flash videos in google play with Chrome in Ubuntu 14.10. (works OK in firefox). I've installed flashplugin-installer and hal, but that doesnt seem to have fixed it within chrome. any ideas? [03:25] I'm looking at the shell script that added apache shown here: https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/provisioning.html Correct me if I'm wrong but it's removing the apache defaults then replacing with the vagrant directory, correct? [03:25] Gamerbob and friends: I thought since its an additional drive you would have to add it into fstab? [03:25] I may be wrong just an idea [03:26] think! yeah! thats what the last guy told me but he couldnt help me with it, he had to go to work [03:26] GamerBoB: Think this might help, scroll down to automatic boot section https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive [03:27] id go thru it but i have to get to bed [03:27] ok i have it partitioned and formatted to ext4 and i cant write to it. i think i need to add it to fstab but idk how [03:27] any ideas on RoR? === xtriz__ is now known as IIT [03:27] think, thanks bud! :D [03:27] I have already checked the support pages, several times. [03:27] Good luck buddy! [03:28] pathauto: basically it's telling you wipe out the /var/www folder and then use the /vagrant folder as the /var/www folder (link it) [03:28] pathauto: problem is Apache changed the folders slightly [03:28] pathauto: so what was /var/www is now /var/www/html [03:29] Oh no, why is VLC missing [03:29] Sunstream: install vlc [03:29] I never uninstalled it [03:29] I just upgraded to 14.10 [03:29] pathauto: in the SSH vagrant session run this command, cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | grep /var/www [03:30] And did as it told me [03:30] pathauto: it'll look for /var/www in the apache configuration [03:30] Sunstream: maybe another package uninstalled it? [03:30] * edition dislikes compiling applications, which are readily available for Microsoft Window === SorryButNotSorry is now known as annoumouse [03:30] pathauto: if you see /var/www/html then yo have the newer version of apache you'll either want to link the /var/www/html folder or you'll want to update the apache.conf file and restart apache [03:30] *windows === annoumouse is now known as annoymouse [03:31] how can I get the kernel module sr_mod to be disabled when it is now built into the kernel? or how can I convert a built in module to be an *.ko module? [03:31] sacarlson: blacklisting doesn't work? [03:31] any ideas on http://paste.ubuntu.com/8681397/ ? [03:31] oh guess not === dream is now known as Aterdeus [03:31] sacarlson: http://askubuntu.com/questions/110341/how-to-blacklist-kernel-modules [03:31] wafflej0ck: can't as it's not loaded it is build in the kernel. [03:32] yeah did not know that [03:32] I am presently looking at converting it to a module but had hopes to find another way [03:32] I dont know [03:32] pathauto: you can also run, apache2 -version, in the SSH shell and if it's 2.4.x then it's probably using /var/www/html by default [03:33] I just upgraded to Utopian Unicorn [03:34] and allowed it to remove not needed and/or obsolete [03:34] sudo apt-get install vlc [03:34] wafflej0ck: pathauto You should see the DocumentRoot line in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default Right? [03:34] If I install flashplugin-installer, should I be seeing another flash entry in Chrome under chrome://plugins? I only currently see the pepperflash entry (which i'm told i'm supposed to disable if i want to watch drm-protected movies) on 14.10 [03:35] usr13: yeah it's either there or in the main apache2.conf file [03:35] grep DocumentRoot /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/* [03:36] pathauto: ^ [03:36] pathauto: are you familiar with Apache? or pretty new to it too? [03:37] it's 2.4.7 [03:37] k [03:38] pathauto: there are some tools surrounding apache and folder structure that is made to simplify things but it can be a bit confusing at first, basically there is a2ensite and a2dissite for enabling or disabling a site, all this really does is adds or removes a symbolic link in the sites-enabled folder in the /etc/apache2/ folder, it looks for the configuration files that correspond to the site in the sites-available folder so usr [03:38] put a grep command there that will look for DocumentRoot apache directives in any of the enabled sites configuration [03:38] <_unreal_> who has OP power in here? [03:38] _unreal_: whats it for? [03:38] _unreal_: what's wrong? [03:39] <_unreal_> um [03:39] wafflej0ck: your cmd gave this: # not allow access to the root filesystem outside of /usr/share and /var/www. === Boscop__ is now known as Boscop [03:39] _unreal_: note that I don't have op in here :P [03:40] <_unreal_> if you dont have op then why respond [03:40] Pretty new to linux and apache aside from setting basic configs for wamp or redirects [03:40] <_unreal_> lotuspsychje, do you have ops? [03:40] pathauto: okay hmm well looks like it is probably using /var/www not /var/www/html for the version you have, would run the command usr13 posted up there too [03:40] _unreal_: no, just ask your question, we can direct you to the rigth channel [03:41] Usually use wamp but may be doing some design/front-end work for a company that does alot of django/python apps. Suggested I play around with vagrant and ubuntu trusty [03:41] so down the rabbit hole I go. [03:41] <_unreal_> yaa...... I'm looking for an OP, TennisUrchin needs to be removed he's pm'ing BS messages [03:41] I cannot get the VLC to work what did they do in 14.10? [03:41] based on a date like 'Fri Oct 1' what is the best way to find out dates that are older than like a month or a week [03:41] pathauto: heh well it's good to know for sure [03:41] I'm having issues with comparing the values of strings [03:42] i can't really say 7 days ago from Oct 8th or whatever [03:42] <_unreal_> Sunstream, VLC should be working fine.... what is it not doing for you? [03:42] _unreal_: #ubuntu-ops [03:43] potatoes_: what language are you using? [03:43] potatoes_: typically sounds like a job for a database query really, but if using JS momentJS is a nice library for date operations [03:43] it looks like I don't have lynx installed [03:44] gak! I needa GUI [03:44] pathauto: sudo apt-get install lynx, should do it [03:44] ok one last option before we compile a kernel, is there any way to search in ubuntu arkive for kernel that already has the sr_mod.ko as a module instead of built in? [03:45] pathauto: if you're just learning Linux and want a GUI maybe virtualbox is a better route but my experience with Vagrant was it works fine and really learning the terminal is pretty key even if you install some desktop environment/gui on linux [03:46] fixed the bug [03:46] yeah, that's why I'm sticking with it. I just expected things to work straight out of the box as pretty much every vagrant tut alludes to === neunon_ is now known as neunon [03:47] so what will lynx --dump localhost/my-site actually do? [03:47] pathauto: hehe lies all lies :P, really though once you have it setup it was easy for me as a consumer of a vagrant project to get it up and running [03:47] pathauto: lynx is just a text based web browser [03:47] TennisUrchin, do not PM me I am happily engaged [03:47] pathauto: so should show you what the "rendered" version of the page looks like in just ascii [03:48] pathauto: this is also a decent way to see what a web crawler will see of your site [03:48] rigs of rods [03:48] edition: had never seen that before but when you mentioned I googled it, pretty cool but you're getting some video error you said? did you grep the source for the error?

[04:17] <_unreal_> GamerBob, calm down [04:17] GamerBob: best way to get your problem resolved is typically to write up a post that explains what you've done so far and where you're stuck this way you can just reference it, also you can get answers on the forums quickly sometimes if no one in the IRC can help directly [04:17] just looking for help not people that send links [04:18] plus spam issues on freenode tonight, GamerBob.

[04:21] It was working fine and then I did a backup and everything went to hell [04:21] but, restarting the services have fixed the problem [04:22] _unreal_, http://192.227.165.183/list.php [04:22] <_unreal_> evil_dan2wik, I'd suggest doing a comparison between your working data base and your backup for any thing out of the norm [04:22] does anyone know were I might find the ubuntu 14.04 kernel config build file that is now running on my machine ? [04:23] well, the backup seems incomplete, it ends with "-- Dumping data for ta" [04:23] I don't see it in /boot as I expexted [04:23] <_10bag> 7 minutes per query! wow [04:23] oh yeah thought it said 7 seconds too hehe [04:23] <_unreal_> that would make sense, if you have an unexpected end of data base.

[04:52] I'm trying to put ubuntu 14.10 on a usb stick with startup disk creator. it says there isn't enough space on the empty 16GB usb stick. it says this whether I format it fat or ext4. how do I make it install? [04:52] I've had no trouble installing before but for some reason now it thinks there is 0 space free [04:52] I need help [04:53] siloxid: there should be an option to format the stick [04:53] something is using 100% CPU [04:53] http://www.massivetrap.com [04:53] mozzarella: you can use the system monitor GUI or top to see what it is [04:53] mozzarella: in a terminal just type top and it will show you the processes sorted by CPU usage [04:53] wafflej0ck: it says loop0 [04:53] what is it [04:53] lotuspsychje: if I format it, it hangs for an hour. I've already formatted the stick as fat and ext4 [04:54] siloxid: maybe something wrong with the stick? [04:54] the stick is fine. I can copy files to it, etc. [04:54] siloxid: try a tail -f /var/log/syslog and plug in your usb [04:55] siloxid: see if you get errors in logs or dmesg [04:55] mozzarella: really not sure http://serverfault.com/questions/195603/loop0-command-eating-100-of-the-cpu [04:55] wafflej0ck: i only know that I custom built my pc and its got a AMD FirePro V4900 [04:56] f00mado1: you might want to check under the Additional Drivers program if there are drivers available that work better [04:57] it wasnt doing that before though..it started out of nowhere. i dont understand why its a brand new install and my pc should have no problem running it [04:57] mozzarella: you can kill the process in top using "k" but good to figure out what's causing it to run too if you can first === larry is now known as Guest27312 [04:58] f00mado1: why did you install ubuntu on less space in the first place? [04:58] f00mado1: if you're literally out of disk space and it has no swap space to use on the disk and the RAM gets filled I could see it being a problem I guess but sounds like GPU issues just based on the description [04:58] Hey there, after a Ubuntu install, my Windows Boot partition has lost it's boot flag and is not seen by os-prober... any ideas? [04:58] wise: you can try a sudo update-grub [04:59] lotuspsychje, tried it, also tried adding my own grub entry, but it wont boot into windows. [04:59] wise: maybe something went wrong with win partition? [04:59] wise: after you add the entry you need to run update-grub as well [05:00] wise: like lotuspsychje said too have you checked if everything looks okay on the win drive [05:00] im running gparted see if I can increase the size of the partition that the OS is installed on [05:00] f00mado1: yeah you have to do it from a live USB or CD [05:00] f00mado1: can't be running hte system from the filesystem you're going to resize [05:01] lotuspsychje: don't see any errors.. hmm [05:01] wafflej0ck, Yeah I tried that. I'm thinking the windows mbr got corrupted somehow... no way you know of to re-add a uefi boot flag though? [05:01] siloxid: you could try multiboot or unetbootin [05:01] wise: sorry don't have much experience with UEFI and it's mostly been bad :( [05:02] siloxid: or start disk creator from terminal, to see what kind of error you have [05:03] wise: make your life easy and install ubuntu on single hd [05:03] anyone here know how i can downgrade my adobeair after having updated it? [05:03] wafflej0ck, same! I had a nightmare with my laptop and had to build a custom 13.10 kernel using only an old android phone for guideance, now this new PC I made I want to dual boot.. [05:03] wise: I know there's another bootloader called refindit that is supposed to work with EFI but I think that Grub2 handles it now too but on my own systems I don't have any of the EFI business active [05:04] lotuspsychje, Linux doesn't have the support for UE4 I need, and I have an AMD Videocard which the linux drivers aren't the greatest for. === logos is now known as Guest11175 [05:04] ue4? [05:04] lotuspsychje, Unreal Engine 4 SDK [05:06] wise: you can try the #ue4linux guys [05:07] lotuspsychje, yeah those guys are great, but its a WIP. [05:08] lotuspsychje, I'd like to be able to switch full time to Linux, at the moment I'm not able to though. [05:08] wise: and there is always virtualbox to your win needs [05:08] yeah ultimately I went with linux with windows in a VB but for 3d graphics development stuff not sure how well that'll work out [05:08] was fine for Photoshop but dunno about anything heavier than that [05:09] wafflej0ck: depends on your system [05:09] sure [05:09] lotuspsychje, The thing is, the way that program renders, you want every available core firing on all cylinders unparked non-stop for hours on end sometimes, the less overhead, the better. [05:09] lot of high end software runs from playonlinux aswell [05:09] my system isn't a slouch but it's also not a full blow workstation [05:09] yeah renders can take a long time [05:10] wafflej0ck: http://oi61.tinypic.com/2iqmrsh.jpg [05:10] wise: anyway those uefi dualboots always kind of a nightmare :p [05:10] the CUDA cores on the GTX670 make blender renders with cycles much faster [05:10] I've been running *nix for over a decade, and prefer it... sometimes you need to run windows though, just the way it is. [05:10] !uefi | wise [05:10] wise: 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 [05:10] wise: well i dumped win for years now so.. [05:11] lotuspsychje, and that's great, and I hope to be able to not have windows one day too. [05:12] lotuspsychje, what works for one man, doesn't work for everybody. [05:12] f00mado1: looks like no free space available? not sure if you can expand the VirtualBox disk size to create unallocated space on the disk without messing up the existing partitions [05:12] so just reinstall then [05:12] f00mado1: you can google about virtualbox disk resizing I just don't know if it's possible or not [05:13] f00mado1: if there's unallocated space available in the gparted window then you can expand the partition into that region [05:13] someone should invent a multi-Os dmeamon-tools like software to run any software/game on any Os right from hardware :p [05:13] f00mado1: deleting and remaking the swap partition is no big deal either since it's just used when you run out of RAM [05:13] i purposefully allocated 16 gbs for that [05:14] anybody on 14.04 ave a problem with firefox not updating its window after switching worksapces. you switch a tab and it still shows the old tab. only after you resize the firefox window does it refresh the window contents. pls advise if its firefos problem, nvidia problem, compiz problem, x problem, or what [05:14] im just trying to expand this one into the storage partition [05:15] f00mado1: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=50661 [05:15] i have made 1 change to compiz: workarounds -> force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint [05:16] f00mado1: you'd have to do that first to expand the virtualbox disk image file (want to close the running vbox instance too before you do this) [05:16] Hi guys! [05:16] f00mado1: then you'd want to start up Gparted by mounting the ubuntu ISO as though you were going to install again then go to the live session mode and open gparted [05:16] f00mado1: then you can expand the thing [05:16] f00mado1: or else just reinstall if you don't have a bunch of stuff installed [05:16] f00mado1: whatever is easier or whatever you wanna do [05:16] I did every day programming using ubuntu [05:17] ill do the first one tell u how it turns out [05:17] f00mado1: k yeah good to try anyhow and if it doesn't work out just reinstall anyhow === jack is now known as Guest31796 === Guest31796 is now known as jack [05:25] this is what ubuntu says to microsoft and mc ox [05:25] mac ox [05:25] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YT_yxs_-J1M [05:25] how to disable unity-scope-ho? when i write in shell netstat -tonp always there is unity-scope-ho, and when i kill the process , then the proces automatically restart [05:25] kazdax_: for general chat go to #ubuntu-offtopic [05:26] Guest11175: just remove Unity, and install a different Desktop environment, IE, Pantheon, xfce, enlightenment, kde, gnome [05:26] Guest11175: http://askubuntu.com/questions/299426/completely-removing-smart-scopes [05:26] personally just using Gnome but whatever it's a preference thing [05:27] yeah Unity made that bad move toward advertisements ;( [05:27] it would be a nice D.E without that [05:27] and previously used KDE and have used XFCE on some old rigs but whateves [05:28] I really like how Gnome 3 is playing out it's very nice and the updates coming for more/better animations look pretty nice [05:31] wafflej0ck: some bullshite just reinstalling . it wouldnt let me expand it still for some reason [05:31] f00mado1: huh k watch the language ops try to keep the channel family friendly [05:34] !list [05:34] Napoli: No warez here!

[06:19] dont remember where ive put them [06:29] I am getting this error while trying to setup mysql playbook with ansible. ERROR: apt is not a legal parameter in an Ansible Playbook [06:30] ansible --version ansible 1.5.4 [06:31] Please suggest [06:33] decci: what is mysql playbook? [06:34] decci, Here's a resent thread on the issue. It's a long read, but solutions listed seem to resolve the issues: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/5412 [06:36] decci, Additionally, if you installed Ansible form the Ubuntu repo, you may want to file a bug on Launchpad to further address the issue. [06:37] ..s/form/from/g [06:41] Hello! Just updated to 14.10, and I have a problem. My battery indicator goes crazy when my battery is charged. It says "battery charged" "charging charging" "battery charging" etc. [06:42] it goes charging/charged/charging/charged all the time [06:42] yo [06:42] possible to install 14.04 *while* im logged into my 12.04 -> 14.04 ugraded version? [06:47] I have found a bug in ubuntu and I would like to fix it, does the papercut thing still exist? [06:49] Hello, how do I install Beatbox on Ubuntu 14.10? [06:49] I can't seem to find it anywhere online. [06:52] OhneBrandon: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2013/08/noise-music-player-beatbox-alternative/ [06:53] sacarlson, that is a disappointment. That was my favorite music player. Well, thank you for the link. [06:54] why we quote semicoln in this ? find ./inhere/ -size 1033c -exec cat {} ';' === jack is now known as Guest6434 [06:57] quazimodo, yes you can, first check: grep '^Prompt=' /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades .. if the prompt does not say "Prompt=lts", then: sudo sed -i 's/Prompt=normal/Prompt=lts/' then .. sudo do-release-upgrade ... should fix you up. change "Normal" to whatever the grep output says if not "normal". [06:57] firebird1: exec requires it, to detect the end of the argument list... [06:58] semicoln must be used right Loshki [06:59] firebird1: yes, see the man page for find. It's a complicated command. [06:59] quazimodo, or better yet, just edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and ensure it's set to lts .. then do you release upgrade. [07:00] why you quote the ';' is because it's a literal command to continue [07:01] but like Loshki said ^^^^ find commands can get kind of complicated [07:04] ive just logged into my vps running Ubuntu 14.04 and found this.. http://i.imgur.com/eBRhdk4.jpg === logos is now known as Guest25091 [07:04] anyone know what could cause those errors? [07:09] brent, It's to time and it's a kernel bug, you should write it up on Launchpad. [07:09] .. related to time .. [07:10] ive never had to do that? [07:11] brent, I've seen it on older kernels 2.6 thru 3.x but not on the later kernels so this is either back or it's somethign new. [07:12] Hello... does Ubuntu 14.10 have the equivilent of the `apm -L` command where it sets the CPU scaling to the lowest available, or is there a command to make my laptop run in `cool mode` ? with minimum power usage and min cpu scaling? [07:12] brent, Copy and paste your test messages to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug [07:13] Has anyone had success running SuperCollider on ubuntu 14.04? [07:13] im actually logged in via novnc which i dont think i can copy from :/ [07:13] Hi, is it just me or is USB file transfers to an android device using Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS slow ? [07:13] really slow. [07:14] brent, SCP the log file then to your workstation .. then copy it from there. [07:15] ah yes ok thanks ki7mt [07:16] * Unknown0BC blinks [07:18] after_r, I assume you have indicator-cpufrequency installed? I've I don't have a 14.10 install at hand to check with. [07:19] havent checked my logs in a while, fail2ban is loaded with entries :/ [07:20] after_r, I think 14.04 and later have this new deal intel_pstate power drivers .. may be worth doing some searching on that, maybe on web8 or similar sites. [07:20] I don't see anyone mentioning USB file transfer problems or it being slow to an android device on Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS [07:20] Unknown0BC: Android devices use MTP, which is pretty damn slow no matter what OS you're on. [07:21] really ferbv ? [07:21] that sux. [07:21] Does jackd work on Ubuntu 14.04? [07:21] yeah, what ferbv said ^^^^ [07:21] ok thans [07:21] so whos idea was that ? to use MTP ? to annoy us ? [07:21] Yeah, I just installed it [07:21] spng453, Yes, I think it's installed by default [07:21] jeeez [07:22] Unknown0BC: look into adb, it tends to be faster in my experience. [07:22] ki7mt: Hm. SuperCollider seems to be completely silent though [07:22] there is an idea ferbv [07:22] And it goes through jackd [07:22] Is it incompatible with pulseaudio? [07:23] spng453, pass on that part, I've not used / installed SuperCollider before, dont even know what it does. [07:23] And who designs a slow file transfer protocol ? [07:23] This is insane. [07:23] :) [07:23] Unknown0BC: Microsoft. [07:23] lol [07:23] ooooh [07:23] ki7mt: Okay, well is there any way to test jackd then? [07:23] Unknown0BC: What did you think SFTP stood for? :P [07:24] hehe [07:24] spng453, here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToJACKConfiguration ... and here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK [07:25] Ah, thanks a ton! [07:26] spng453, looking at the back-ends, I don't see pulseaudio listed though, but I am fare from an Audio expert that's for sure. [07:27] Well I'd like to stick with pulseaudio if possibly [07:29] Is there like a nice front end interface to adb ? [07:30] With nice icons and clicky things :). Or must I keep typing the commands ? [07:30] ki7mt: Seems as if I need the pulseaudio-module-jack package. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though! [07:31] spng453, This is interesting, maybe your application SuperCollider isn't Jack-Aware: http://jackaudio.org/applications/ [07:32] I think the problem definately lies in pulseaudio not outputting what jack is trying to play [07:32] I'll try this and report back if it works or not [07:32] Unknown0BC, ok, I'll bite, what is adb ? [07:32] Helo. What is being used in 14.10 in place of: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/acidrip/ ? [07:33] Android Debug Bridge. [07:34] Novice201y: HandBrake does and honest job of DVD ripping, but you might need the HandBrake PPA to get things working right. It works in a similar way to acidrip with similar options. [07:35] Oh great. I got jack working... and broke pulseaudio [07:35] Hah, just kidding, I broke both of them [07:35] Maybe bluetooth will beat MTP ( the slow protocol proudly brought to us by microsoft ) [07:36] Novice201y, looks like it should be in Utpoic: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/amd64/acidrip/0.14-0.2ubuntu7 [07:37] Unknown0BC, would this work: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/qtadb-adb-android-debug-bridge-beginners-gui/ [07:37] Looks like a Qt Based ADB thingy .. [07:37] * Unknown0BC blinks [07:38] All be it, that's a WinDoze example, maby some more searching fer *Nix is in order. === spence is now known as Guest78697 [07:42] Anybody know why Nautilus shows wrong files/directories size when? [07:42] ...when combined together? [07:42] it gets really crazy [07:44] if I select directory and RMB/properties, it's all right. It's also good when I select multiple directiores. But it all starts when I have additional file selected besides. [07:44] it's a bug since 12.04 [07:45] karab44, does the bug say a fix is committed for it ? [07:45] or better yet, can you post a link to the bug [07:46] I am not sure, I haven't even checked that [07:46] That's probably a good first step. [07:46] It's harmless and it's so much fun watching file size gets crazy and loops in eternal count. [07:47] karab44, If it's a know bug, then obviously it's not been corrected, or maybe it's not been posted as a formal bug and should be. [07:47] ..s/know/known/g.. [07:47] ki7mt: how should I know is it known? I know it. Is anybody else in a house know it? === tom_ is now known as Guest69209 [07:48] karab44, I assumed you knew it to be a bug (formally) as you said as much, but, maybe it's not then, and would be worth posting it against Nautilus. [07:49] karab44, Id' looky here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus and if not found, post one. [07:50] karab44, There's not too many to look through, only 1346 or so :-) [07:51] hey, when i download using transmission client , the upload speed is increasing and the downloading is gettin slower. anyway to speed up my download ? [07:52] yo [07:52] got a question [07:52] ki7mt: wow that's alot of bugs 1346, I look at caja that has but 1 undecided bug so far [07:52] Error: Could not gather data from Launchpad for bug #1346 (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1346). The error has been logged [07:52] could i change my desktop environment without restarting my computer? [07:52] im on unity but want xfce [07:53] andrewhuntley: just log out and select another one. [07:53] rly [07:53] opps wrong search [07:54] are there any that come with the reg ubuntu 14.04 install [07:54] i was gon download xfce right now [07:54] i am noob sorry [07:54] andrewhuntley: you need to install them first, of course, although I'm not sure what the recommended way is nowadays [07:54] ah [07:54] i found a guide [07:54] that seems p simple [07:54] lol [07:55] it says install thru terminal and then log out and back in [07:55] as you said [07:55] tyvm [07:55] andrewhuntley: installing xubuntu-desktop should pull xfce in, but in my experience you'll run into a lot of small annoying issues [07:55] will putting this on affect any of my current programs? [07:55] or will they still be the same [07:55] im assuming so [07:56] any body there ? [07:56] aight thanx again [07:56] need some help to create partion in ubuntu 14 [07:56] andrewhuntley: it'll pull in a lot of other programs, and it might be hard to remove everything if you change your mind [07:56] after installation [07:57] ki7mt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mIufiULLaU&feature=youtu.be [07:57] karab44 give some suggestion for my problem [07:58] t4nk351: no, you give me first [07:58] WHat you are asking karab? [07:58] t4nk351: although I have to commend your solution to the bystander effect, you probably shouldn't single someone out like that on IRC [07:58] karab : need some help to create partion in ubuntu 14 after installation [07:59] t4nk351: use gparted - it's super-friendly and powerful partition editor [07:59] if it's not installed just sudo apt-get install gparted [07:59] or use app manager [08:00] before you change partition size or create it, you have to umount your disk first. All of that you can do within gparted. [08:01] If you want to change your system partition you may want to launch it from some liveCD edition [08:01] Karab : before that i installa windows 7 now i use ubuntu nearly 450gb files not showing dude ? [08:02] t4nk351: I told you exactly what to do [08:03] Karab : i install tat sofware after what i should do ? [08:03] launch it bro [08:03] t4nk351: use gparted to look at your partitions. === ubuntu is now known as Guest33202 [08:03] t4nk351: you're not really telling us what you want to do. [08:03] I have found a bug in ubuntu and I would like to fix it, does the papercut thing still exist? [08:04] ferbv: I think he told everything. After installing ubuntu he has got 400GB missing [08:04] i need to view files in ubuntu: mister ferbv [08:04] you got my point karab but ferbv not understand [08:04] karab i open gpartion then what i should do ? [08:04] karab44: what does "missing" mean? Does the partition not automount? Did he overwrite it during install? [08:04] t4nk351: maybe the disk is not mounted, gparted should show visible partitons and show status if they are mounted or not [08:05] guys relax, you like to guess everything? He doesn't know that... if he knew, he wouldn't come here ask for help [08:05] t4nk351: it will also have the option to mount the partition if it is not already mounted and also show the location of it's mount if it is already mounted [08:05] if any report software there means tell to me i install then i give id details then using remote you guys create in my pc [08:06] karab44, I would post a bug, describe it as best you can, then, maybe even link the UT vid for further explanation, as that looks like a bug to me. [08:06] ki7mt: seriously? A bug? No way Buahahaha [08:06] Ok that's up to you. [08:07] t4nk351: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkXATVq75IQ watch it first [08:07] if it's not enough, watch another one. DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST [08:07] okay karab44 [08:07] if you had any troubles then, just come and we'll think [08:08] guys for those interested to get past the MTP slow file transfer mode on android devices there is a command you can run on the android device to make it go into normal USB mass storage mode :) [08:08] I wish there was a way to configure the Software Center in ubuntu to install as a non-root user who has access to the folders like /usr and /bin to install software but has no access to folders like /boot .. is this doable? [08:08] bro do it using online/ remote access i m new to ubuntu [08:08] bwcause its using the root user now and that is a security issue for me [08:08] t4nk351: you trust strangers too much :) [08:08] ya i beleive you karab [08:08] t4nk351: how do you know I'll not install any malware to your machine? === qwerty is now known as Guest87361 [08:09] i tust you karab [08:09] t4nk351: or steal your secret files [08:09] i dont have to steal karab ? [08:10] hmmm karab [08:10] t4nk351: configuring remote access is even more advanced task and gonna take more time than setting partition. [08:10] ok so I have two files, one has the user name, last login date in (month date time format) and a second file with user id and file size, i need to find a way to compare the values between the two files to send me an alert when a user is using a certain amount of space and hasn't been active in several weeks.. any recommendations on a good starting place? I'm just stumped [08:10] after_r: some time back I saw there was a param that enabled apt-get or was it dpkg to install apps to a different location. It's been some time and I have never used it [08:11] t4nk351: just first of all make backups and relax. [08:11] karab : how to attach screenshot in this chat ? [08:11] it would be nice if I could create like a `priverlaged` user but not as priverlaged as root and use that [08:11] you can use pasteall. http://www.pasteall.org/ [08:11] privelaged user I mean ( [08:11] * [08:14] Karab : its show partion sda1 file type : ex4 mount : / [08:15] good [08:15] is it your system partition? [08:15] ya [08:15] but its does not show files [08:15] if you watched tutorial I've sent you you probably should now already what to do... [08:15] after_r, You looking for something like: dpkg -i --force-not-root --root=$HOME package.deb [08:15] t4nk351: it won't show files. It's for creating/deleting/resizing partitions [08:16] after_r, Then enable ~/bin and ~/user in yoru ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile [08:16] whoops ~/usr .. .. [08:16] t4nk351: I think you may want to check for disk space analyzer. Is that correct? [08:16] after_r: only way I found so far is your user would have to apt-get source package and compile it in his local bin http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/42567/how-to-install-program-locally-without-sudo-privileges [08:17] after_r, Alternatively, you could apt-get source ./package-name && ./configure --prefix=$HOME && make && make install etc [08:17] ya correct karab [08:17] i check that one [08:18] dpkg: error: unable to access dpkg status area: No such file or directory [08:18] t4nk351: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=78953 [08:18] dpkg -i --force-not-root --root=gtt gnome-tweak-tool_3.12.0-2ubuntu1_all.deb [08:18] install it. Don't touch gparted then. [08:18] after_r, a third option, although more complex, is to use schroot [08:20] дарова [08:21] Русские есть? [08:21] t4nk351: is it good? [08:21] after_r: maybe another method dpkg-deb -x /path/to/some.deb $HOME will install a deb in your local directory, it doesn't take care of dependency [08:21] kot9good: que? [08:21] karab44 Im Russkia [08:21] Russia* [08:21] karab : its show my hard drive details like 500 gb but its does not show the files [08:21] You now? [08:21] !russia [08:21] Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. [08:21] <_blk> kot9good, maybe #ubuntu-ru ? [08:22] Yeah what sacarlson said ^^^^ dpkg does not do dependencies ,, so you need to apt-get showsrc and install the deps as well. [08:23] karab : i m ready to give to online access you do for me ? [08:23] <_blk> or apt-get build-dep [08:24] that requires sudo [08:24] t4nk351: gparted as well as disk space analyzer are both tools enough to solve or diagnoze your issue. Deal with it [08:24] Anyone having CPU stuck at low freq after upgrading to Utopic? [08:24] ybon: that's why I don't upgrade to ... unicorn [08:25] after_r, Bottom line is, unless you can buold the package and change the --prefix or $(DESTDIR) .. your gonna have trouble as with deps, as the system is setup to use /usr as the base for most binaries. [08:25] .. s/buold/build/g .. [08:26] Im thinking I will use debootstrap + chroot [08:26] I dont need schroot [08:26] i just want to isolate my current os env [08:26] that's a good option. [08:26] or Use VirtualBox or something if you have enough system resources. [08:26] ohh [08:26] well this is to install system software [08:27] like the Gnome Tweak Tool [08:27] The fact is that my usual workarounds to free my CPUs freq doesn't seem to work on Utopic [08:27] but nevermind ill get it [08:27] well, all the packages you install, or most all of them are build in debootstrp env's with pbuilder, cowbuilder etc. so the debootstrap is well tested for sure. [08:28] super [08:28] after_r: oh and also virtualbox, then you can run an entire system in your home as sudo [08:30] after_r, Bare in mind, Vivid pbuilder-dist is not up and running yet, so the latestet you can build in Utpoic .. I think that will change in the next week or so when they start spinning vivid builds. [08:31] basically what I wanted to do was install this app caleld `Gnome Tweek Tool` and all of its dependencies into my local home folder [08:32] but I am not able to because the dependencies need to be isntaleld [08:32] the deb is in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/amd64/gnome-tweak-tool/3.12.0-2ubuntu1 [08:32] can a standard account access the files on administator account_ [08:33] after_r, The tweak tool has allot of Deps. [08:33] test [08:33] and when I try dpg I get: after@host1:~/Downloads$ dpkg -i --force-not-root --root=./gtt gnome-tweak-tool_3.12.0-2ubuntu1_all.deb [08:33] dpkg: error: unable to access dpkg status area: No such file or directory [08:33] xhv, If the user is in the Sudoers group, yes [08:33] ki7mt thank zou [08:33] hi [08:33] ki7mt: yeah, would it make sense to recursively installing the dependencies but to my home folder and not the system? or is that just complicating things? [08:34] Is there any shortcut to switch between terminal tab's [08:34] pls help [08:34] would that just make a mess I mean? [08:34] after_r, For what your wanting to do, I would recommend using Virtual-box [08:34] because then it would download dependencies that I already resolved in the system folders [08:35] after_r, As that gives you complete control over the entire Virtual Guest OS [08:35] ki7mt: well I want to use the tool to modify my main OS [08:35] i just dont wan to run the install process as root [08:36] Shunya, in gnome-terminal: To switch between tabs you can use Alt-n, where n is the tab ordinal number. [08:36] after_r, Well, as the administrator to install if for you then, asn the problem is solved. [08:36] Thanks ki7mt [08:37] It's working :) === l0rdn1x is now known as l0rdn1x-switch [08:37] ki7mt: I am the administrator, I dont want to run the install process because I feel better [08:37] I feel more secure that way [08:37] if i dont run it as root [08:37] ki7mt is it possiable to have multi linux based os installed on one drive, where the main os would be encryprted via dm-crypt with /home and /root [08:38] I just created a file called playbook.yml under /root to test it and while I run ansible-playbook playbook.yml it threw error: ERROR: apt is not a legal parameter at this level in an Ansible Playbook [08:38] after_r, After installing, you dont run the tweak tool as root, you run it as a normal user, and it only affects that particular user. [08:38] Actually my requirement is running http://paste.ubuntu.com/8683385/ on the remote host [08:38] after_r, i am gonna ddos u [08:38] I am trying to install mysql server and other packages through http://paste.ubuntu.com/8683380/ [08:39] ki7mt: yes, but doesnt the install process sometimes include running scripts? (like install scripts that come with the package) ? [08:39] after_r, So, to test, create another user, test things there, then if you like it, apply the same changes to your preferred user. [08:39] I know I dont run it as root [08:39] after_r, No scripts, a simple sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool will do it. [08:39] I tried using pip to install ansible and not the general apt-get as suggested by one of folk here [08:39] after_r, u should go offline now [08:39] Hello [08:40] I can't use java plugin with konqueror [08:40] How can I solve this issue? [08:40] Any ideas? [08:40] so it looks like .deb files cant have scripts that execute upon install (as the root user) and only are extracted [08:41] What is wrong with Utopia Unicorn being so slow with firefox and trying to compose emails with outlook.com (live.com) is something brokjen [08:41] xhv, Yes, install a multi-boot setup, encrypt what you want on , anbd leave , , etc as normal, then at boot-time, select distro for encryption stuff. [08:42] looks like they do can contain scripts http://askubuntu.com/questions/62534/adding-post-deb-install-scripts [08:42] which would be run as root.. thats what im afraid of [08:42] its not just extracting files [08:42] after_r, Those are debhelpr scripts, postinit postrm etc, they are package maintainer scripts, not user space scripts. [08:42] xhv: it would seem that yes a standard user by default can see most of the files inside a sudo users account home. as by default home diretory are drwxr-xr-x [08:43] Man whatever they did in 14.10 it has slowed down outlook a lot and made issues with Amazon... apparenly something is up with Java or something... [08:43] ki7mt hows its done multi-boot setup (ubuntu, debian and fedora( [08:43] sacarlson so just change the permissions then_ [08:44] xhv, This is not really a Ubuntu support situation .. there's plenty of Ubuntu Multi-Boot How-Too's ,, but mixing and matching multi-distro is outside the channel scope here. [08:44] ki7mt: but "This is a normal shell script containing all the commands to be executed (in order) after the installation of the package. dpkg will run this automatically. " [08:44] ki7mt thanks [08:44] xhv: yes you can change the default to prevent your girl friend seeing anything inside [08:44] he said after the installation of the package [08:45] thats not maintainer stuff but user space [08:45] after_r, I know it is, I use them in packaging, but they are installed to /var/lib/dpkg/info .. and not designed for users to mess with, they are hooks for apt-get to use [08:45] nevermind aparntly the stupid holloween BS at Amazon is causing issues [08:46] but doesnt apt-get execute them ? [08:46] Yes [08:46] as the user who called apt-get ? [08:46] sacarlson thanks will do [08:48] after_r, Well yes and no .. sudo calls apt-get, then apt does it's routines, install, remove, purge .. and more often than not, there's conditionals applied, and the maintainer scripts are eecuted based on the suers requested action < install, remove, purge etc> some are also conditional for aborts and mis-configurations, trust me, you don't want to mess with those scripts unless you know exactly what your doing. [08:48] quick question. when i did my initial install of 14.04x64 i did not opt to use the file system encryption. just updated to 14.10. is there any way to enable the full encryption post-install? [08:49] (without reformatting) [08:50] hmm... ok. [08:50] CreeLux, One example: http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/ [08:50] Ill have to research some more later [08:50] yeah i saw that, didn't want just the home folder. [08:50] but there has to be a better way then to use the root user [08:50] i already apt-get the encr utils [08:50] CreeLux, Oh, you want the entore OS encrypted ? [08:50] correct [08:51] Hello, I forgot or didn't set a MySQL password. So on my Ubuntu server, I tried command UPDATE mysql.user SET Password..., but error: update: command not found? [08:51] is the output of bash logged? im needed to make a copy of something [08:51] no [08:51] I am about done dealing with Amazon [08:51] I'm following the MySQL walkthrough for Unix, so I would have thought the command UPDATE would have worked? [08:52] CreeLux, Im not 100% on that one, I would guess "No" as it used random date to do the enc .. but there may be 3rd party toosl that can handle that, I've just not tested them. [08:52] rgr. thanks. [08:52] ../s/random date/random data/g .. [08:52] So I change my password and now,, xubuntu won't mount my encrypted home partition. [08:53] It loops when I enter my password at boot. I can login in successfully in another user account. [08:53] as per http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/resetting-permissions.html [08:54] jyd, http://www.johndscomputers.com/2014/security/careful-about-changing-that-password-on-an-ubuntu-encrypted-home-file-system/ [08:54] linuxmint: if you're getting "update: command not found" that osunds like you're just running the command from bash? [08:54] you need to actually run mysql first [08:54] gac: yes, I am running only from Bash, as I can't access MySQL? [08:55] well, that's why it's not working then :) what happens when you try and get into the mysql command line [08:55] gac: hmm, ok, the walkthrough doesn't say that...I'll try that. [08:55] gac: says something like NO password. [08:55] "something like"....could it be "login failed for root@localhost, using password: NO" [08:55] If I recall, install mysql from the repo's, it asks you for a PW [08:56] and just because it's installed, dosnt' mean the service is running, need to check that too. [08:56] gac: sorry, specifically after command: mysql -u root -p > Enter > ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhsot' (using password: NO) [08:56] I'be got connection problems [08:57] Has anyone answered to me? [08:57] *I've [08:57] linuxmint: that sounds like you DO have a root password set [08:57] Yup [08:57] ? [08:57] gac: oh, that's good, because I'm sure I setup the MySQL database. It's been a while due to other technical issues. In that case, I'll try a few passwords. [08:58] linuxmint, have a looky here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset [08:58] gac: what do you know...I'm in. The problem is my console shows the current commands 3 lines below the bottom of the screen, so I kind of have to guess a bit. [08:59] linuxmint, One the link, first error is the same as your getting: ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO) [08:59] linuxmint, Just reset the PW, then try to access again. [09:00] ki7mt: thanks, I'm in now. [09:00] gac: thanks :-) [09:00] nps [09:01] cristian_c, Sorry, I missed you issue, can your re-state what you the problem is ? [09:01] Lets try that again .. I missed your issues, can you please restate .. .. my typing is terrible tonight . [09:02] ki7mt, yes [09:02] ki7mt, Thank you. [09:02] I can't use java plugin with konqueror [09:02] How can I solve this issue? [09:02] cristian_c, https://konqueror.org/javahowto/ [09:02] ki7mt, however ecryptfs-mount-private doesn [09:02] t accept my passwords [09:03] *or something [09:03] jyd, When you change it you mean ? [09:04] ki7mt, java is not owned by sun anymore [09:04] guys help [09:04] jyd, I'll be honest here, Im not a enc-fs expert .. I tend to not use that stuff for all the various issues that arise. [09:04] cristian_c, Ok. [09:05] ki7mt, anyway, thanks for the link [09:05] ki7mt, I'll do some checks [09:05] :) [09:05] thanks [09:05] No, I changed it, then reboot the computer. I boot and login and it keeps cycling. I then ctrl alt f1 and login just just as that link explains "to the t", however when I try to mount my home partition manually it doesn't seem to like the password. [09:06] cristian_c, Thats from konq site, so if anyone knows the issues, they would "I would think" [09:06] Seems like it borked the encrypotion key [09:06] cristian_c, Also, may try in #kubuntu also [09:06] ki7mt, ok [09:08] jyd, Yeah, thats possible, that's stuff is designed to prevent work arounds, you could be in for a rough ride on this one. [09:10] ki7mt, You know,, hah.. As soon as I noticed this problem at boot and found it wasn't mounting my home partition,, I immediately(almost) accepted the worst case scenario. [09:12] jyd, That's one of those things that, once you dont mess with it. I see allot of problems arise from those changing or messing wiht the original setups. [09:12] .. once you set it up, dont mess with it .. [09:14] Im sure there's experts here in the channel that know the enc-fs inside and out, but they are few and far between as it's not for the faint at heart. [09:14] ki7mt, I know. But c'mon I changed my password Lol.. [09:15] :-) .. dont shoot the messanger :-) [09:16] jyd, I forgot, is it your $HOME or the whole drive that' encrypted ? [09:16] The whole drive and home [09:17] i get in to the system fine with my system password. === Owner is now known as Guest35962 [09:18] But it seems me changing my password by "passwd" bunked up my ecryptfs config/key something. [09:18] I'm going to try to keep cracking away at this. [09:18] Literally. [09:19] jyd, Yeah, three's lots of how-too's but they all seems to be situational dependent. [09:19] hi im trying to install beyondcompare and it that seems to depend on libfontconfig1:i386 being installed. however i am getting errors trying to install this. i have just upgraded to 14.10 -> any ideas on how i can resolve [09:19] jyd, while one may work, others may cause you more grief, so, not really sure where to go with this one. [09:20] I set it via the GUI briefly to a password I can't remember earlier in the week and it may have been updated to that one,, but my home partition was mounted the whole time so I wouldn't have known about it blah [09:20] and grr a bit [09:21] jimbojam, Im assuming your have an x64 install ? [09:21] jimbojam: you running amd64? [09:22] jimbojam, and secondly, why the need for manyually installing libfontconfig1:i386 .. is beyondcompare not pulling it in ? [09:23] Ahh, nevermnd, beyondcompare is not in Truty even .. interesting , is that the correct package name ? [09:24] did i dream with a 3.0 version of whatever in ubuntu site? [09:25] jimbojam, also, 14.10 is not listed on their compatibility page: http://www.scootersoftware.com/download.php?zz=kb_linux [09:25] helo [09:25] hello [09:25] ciao [09:26] out_of_color, 3.0 version of what ? [09:28] ki7mt , as far as i can remember it was like an ad to a tablet/phone os. is that possible or did i dream it? [09:30] out_of_color, Im gonna pass on this one, as I've no idea what your referring to. [09:30] ciao a tutti [09:31] ki7mt , me neither , i was in the site after that and i couldn t find anything about it so i presume it was a dream [09:33] out_of_color, Here's the release notes, maybe that will ring a bell or two :-) : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes [09:33] ki7mt: nah, i want to wipe / and redo install [09:33] ki7mt: ahh im trying to install the beyondcompare deb file using gdebi and it gives me this error: "This package is not able to be installed / Cannot install 'libfontconfig1:i386'" [09:33] and yeah i am running amd64 [09:34] jimbojam, Yeah, that means, either the package doesn't exist, or, the package name is something other than what the control file is calling for. [09:35] jimbojam, Additionally, their web-stie states, they only tested on 12.04 LTS and 14.04 LTS .. not 14.10 [09:35] ki7mt: yeah so i thought i could manually try installing the problematic libfontconfig1:i386 package - and aptitude is giving me dependency errrors [09:35] ok so likely is not compatible with this version i take it. perhaps i should wait a few more weeks :) [09:35] jimbojam: it looks as though the package you are trying to install requires a 32-bit dependancy, which you won't have/can't install due to you having a 64-bit system. [09:36] Gdebi takes care of Deps, but it can't find it as stated in the control file. [09:37] it's it's 32bit Dep, and its int the Repo, it will pull it in, thus the libfontconfig1:i386 [09:37] but if not under that name, you'll get errors. [09:38] It's als *not* listed in Utopic under the -dev heading: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libfontconfig1-dev [09:39] hmm i thought it was in the repo, as when i try and manually install it, it fails because it would break other packages. see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8685375/ [09:39] Nopre I take that back sorry. [09:39] It is listed under Utpoic: http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/libfontconfig1-dev [09:39] So, I am planning on doing the upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04.1 server tonight. Is there any advice? I made a backup of my http, php and mysql conf as well as the user dirs, root dir and all the mysql databases plus /var/www [09:40] anything else I should do before the upgrade to check if it might fail at some point? [09:40] jimbojam, and here's the runtime: http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/libfontconfig1 [09:41] I don't have any weird repos, except of the google one for apache mod pagespeed. I have also always used apt for packagaes, and have not compiled any weird stuff into it. [09:42] kLOs, LTS to LTS is tested, allot, but, theres always the odd issue here an there. If you data backed up (db's and web-content), should be revoerable if minor issues arise. [09:44] ki7mt: I used ubuntu a lot back in the days breezy badger and stuff and almost always there were problems updating from one desktop version to another :) i am just much more afaraif when jumping multiple versions :) [09:44] kLOs, Server are allot easier, IMHO, as there's no DE involved and all the other typical user mode things that go along with it. [09:45] thats good to know :) [09:45] just worried if I can't reach the shell anymore... [09:45] kLOs, Biggest things I would check is the Apache version changes / release notes, that's where you ccan get tripped up, that and Bind version and things like that. [09:46] i don't use bind, so thats a good thing I suppose :) [09:46] I'll have a look at apache issues thanks! [09:47] hello [09:47] btw, is there another repositories list besides etc/apt/sources.list? [09:47] for some reason the google repository doesnt show there... [09:48] but it's updated when i run apt-get update [09:48] found it :) [09:49] sources.list.d/ [09:50] kLOs, yeah, thats where PPA's and other non-distro lists go [09:50] I need help with this http://bit.ly/1oJU8KU problem. I've set up a bounty on askubuntu, as the question has not recieved any attention :( [09:50] thanks @ki7mt [09:52] Ok time the head East, CUAL [09:58] Hello.

[10:32] Novice201y: maybe you should see if you can mount it before you change it [10:33] sacarlson: Error may took place, because I work on Ubuntu on this encrypted partition? [10:34] Novice201y: well ya if the file system is in use it's best not to change it then [10:35] Novice201y: create another user account, login to that and then change it. or at least see that you can mount it with the password you plan to open it with [10:36] sacarlson: I thought that it would be like on MacOSX - just go to System configuration and disable encyption or change password... [10:36] mozzarella: I dont know much about that team, but if you just search for it on google you get plenty of hits, including its launchpad page [10:37] I've a date like October 24th and I want to be able to say that if that date happens to be from over a week ago, store it [10:37] or something..

[11:20] brent: rather not move them? what do you hope to do? [11:21] sacarlson, i hope to reverse what i did [11:21] brent: if they are on the same hard disk then the files don't move only the indexes do [11:22] sacarlson, so is there any possibility to revert back? [11:22] brent: well I don't know the structure of what your diretory was so no clue here [11:23] brent: not as far as I know. maybe some foresic expert can look at disk sectors and find evedence of were they came from. but not me [11:23] picture this.. a mounted drive /mnt/tv-drive/<100+ tv show titles>/Season<1-10>..etc/episodefile.mkv [11:24] brent: ya I kind of figured, so I shouldn't say it's imposible but for me it would be unfeasable [11:24] You can write a script that will move the files based on show title and season number, tho [11:24] If all your titles are formatted in a similar fashion [11:24] Yeah what Zaitzev said [11:24] you could do that if the formatting is consistent [11:25] and the ones that fall through, either move manually or tweak the script to catch those as well [11:25] Yeah [11:25] Zaitzev: brent now that's a thought maybe there is some other info in the file I didn't think of [11:26] brent: you could also sort them by size as maybe movies are big files and tv are small [11:27] i like your idea Zaitzev [11:27] might google around [11:27] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2180131 [11:28] that might get you started [11:31] thanks for the suggestion sacarlson , though this drive where i ran the file from was only tv shows === newbee is now known as Guest67737 [11:36] filebot.net looks like a saviour [11:36] anybody when i downloaded a 700 mb file using transmission client [11:36] something uploaded to 585 mb [11:36] what does that really means ?

[11:47] !debian [11:47] Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/what-is-debian.html - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [11:47] drmagoo, your home directory is encrypted with your login password [11:47] brent: i would start looking if its already in the ubuntu package system on the ubuntu repos [11:48] yea im using Desktop so ill check the Software Center [11:48] hi [11:49] is everything avilable using apt-get also in the software center? [11:50] !find filebot [11:50] Package/file filebot does not exist in utopic [11:51] i found it using software center and its $5! [11:51] yet its on sourceforge and there site for free [11:51] Naphatul: yeah, but where does the system store the password? It must store it somewhere ? [11:51] then use the .deb package. but be aware that you dont get automated updates then and need to do this manually [11:52] drmagoo, hashed passwords are stored in /etc/shadow [11:52] brent [11:52] how install drivers graphic card? [11:52] hi [11:52] with command [11:53] try searching your manufacturers website [11:54] but i searched and with ubuntu havent drivers [11:54] you might have to google your cards name and model with linux/ubuntu drive [11:55] driver^ [11:55] there are some diferent way what install drivers of manufactured website? [11:55] hi [11:55] Naphatul: But is that hash enough for the system to decrypt the home-dir? If so, that sounds like a really poor security solution.

[12:01] brent i download ubunu installer driver for install my controller drivers and what command is for uncompress and install the archive .deb? [12:01] your using desktop correct? [12:02] yes i ask for a foolishness :D [12:03] deb you can just run from where you downloaded it [12:03] yes [12:03] How do I extract only the version of a package?

[12:10] I'm currently using Ubuntu, and I want to install Windows 10 as a dual-boot. What's the safest and easiest way to do that? === Owner__ is now known as Guest81092 [12:10] is windows 10 out? [12:10] a preview version [12:11] But I need Windows for some programs, while Windows 8 is extremely unstable on my hardware and Windows 7 and earlier are blocked [12:12] windows 10 isn't launched for the market [12:13] I have an ISO (obtained in a legal way) [12:13] and when its launch is still be unestable... [12:14] but you can use it? [12:14] It can't be much worse than Windows 8, and I've tried it on a VM and it seems to be pretty stable [12:15] crocket: ok from a command line to look at a deb file? the files are compressed with like gz [12:15] its a copy with ubuntu 12 and 14.... [12:15] sacarlson, I don't want it [12:15] But my main problem is that I only have 1 flash drive large enough to hold an OS, so I'm worrying that if the installation would fail, I might not be able to boot to ubuntu again, even when the files remain intact [12:15] sacarlson, I want to deal with dpkg [12:16] I want to inspect an installed package via dpkg. [12:16] yes.. this problem is very bad [12:16] ben_g, why u not using win10 and the programm you need in a virtual machine? [12:17] i used ubuntu 12-4 [12:17] 12.10 [12:18] RDX400: because the programs I need windows for are rather heavy both graphically and RAM-wise, so they perform quite bad on a VM especially since I only have 6GB of RAM [12:18] hi [12:19] and windows... my pc not go good with windows and with "lightweit" i'm never ever use windows with this pc [12:20] ben_g, hmm, now i get it. [12:20] But when I bought this laptop, it came with a windows 8 installer already on the hard drive, so would it be possible to create an extra partition with such an installer so I don't have to install Windows 10 on a flash drive first? [12:20] so with ubunutu 14.04 need 2 gb (recomend) and Windows required 6gb :( [12:20] crocket: looks like this works dpkg --version your.deb [12:22] if i'm was you i install ubuntu :D but i'm not you , then i install windows 10 in a old desktop but with good hardware. [12:22] crocket: oh no that only provides version of dpkg [12:23] Well, I need to use Inventor 2015 for school, which is windows only and doesn't work under Wine [12:23] to see if it goes well [12:23] ben_g, sure its possible, u can use gparted to resize the partition [12:23] and the only other desktop I have is truthly ancient [12:24] ok i dont have answers for you... [12:24] yes [12:24] RDX400: is it also possible to alredy put the windows 10 installer on the newly created partition and set up the dual-boot stuff before installing windows 10? [12:25] but first of partition with two OS must orden OS [12:26] yes i want have but this pc don't is very good with 2 OS [12:26] with your computer go good [12:27] ben_g, win10 will install a bootloader into the mbr and after then u can choice which os u want to start. its similar to the grup but linux is much more better :D [12:28] ben_g, send u an pm [12:29] my answer before ben_g is.

[12:38] thanks [12:39] this is probably going to be more of a virtualbox question, but i've got ubuntu 14.04 running in a VM on win 8. i'm using citrix access gateway to vpn into another machine, from within win 8. does anyone know if there is a way that i can ssh from the ubuntu VM, through that Wn 8 vpn? [12:40] Hiyas all [12:41] hey guys my terminator crashes after i open 3 tabs with splited display what should i do? it wasnt like this before [12:43] snufft, #vbox ? [12:43] snufft: I would assume on win 8 setup a route to your path in vpn. if it was linux it would be any way. so with that I would think with virtualbox in bridge mode that the ip on vpn would be accessable [12:44] cfhowlett, cheers, I'll give that channel a shot :) [12:44] snufft: that also assuming you have forwarding enabled [12:44] sacarlson, i've got it in bridged mode atm, but no dice unfortuantely. I think it's close though, because i've noticed that when i'm connected to the vpn in win8, the ubuntu vm's internet connection breaks [12:45] sacarlson, forwarding where? within win8? [12:45] snufft: I know nothing about setup of windows for forwarding and routing [12:45] so, why after closing and reopening my laptop lid does my wifi not connect? [12:45] snufft: yes like iptables forwarding [12:46] snufft: forwarding to other subnets that would be the vpn would be another subnet [12:46] Hi there! Since Friday my V-Server running Plesk on Ubuntu does not serve the contents of my vhost domains. No matter which subdomain is requested, it only serves the Apache default page. [12:47] sacarlson, don't worry, windows doesn't know much about forwarding either :P hahaha i'll check that out though. could be on to something here :) [12:51] tosate: so is dns setup correctly? [12:51] not reconnect, sorry [12:52] tosate: oh multi domains do make it to the same page so I guess dns must work. so just the configs in apache not set correct I guess [12:53] sacarlson: since the server is managed by Plesk and I haven't changed anything it should be ok. === ARMEN_ is now known as EREVAN [12:54] tosate: I'll have to lookup plesk. so it doesn't run apache? === tcpman is now known as Guest30093 [12:55] on a unrelated topic, does anyone know why my video will freeze when playing native games? the audio will keep working it's just the video [12:56] sacarlson: Plesk is a kind of Server virtualization.

Now I booted 14.04 from usb stick and i'd like to repair the 12.04 system, but dont know exactly what to do. any ideas? [13:04] dididodo, depends. "ran out of memory" means you totally exceeded your HDD storage? [13:05] don't gnome devs think people may want to resize their windows with a mouse? [13:06] is there a way in gnome to get back that tiny 3-pixel window border so I can resize it with a mouse? [13:06] <_unreal_> dididodo, um figure out what is hogging most of your space on your hard drive [13:06] <_unreal_> do you have a HUGE download folder? do you have music movies etc.....? [13:06] Turingi, best you ask gnome directly. not this channel [13:06] <_unreal_> figure out what you can backup to an other drive to remove from the drive. then you should have enough space to do something. [13:07] dididodo, and how do you know your hdd ran out of space , did you see an error? [13:07] cfhowlett, Blueskaj ... i saw it from df -h [13:08] <_unreal_> dididodo, so if your low on harddrive space. back up and remove the data that is important and drive consuming [13:08] cfhowlett: there are usually distro-specific ways of solving gnome problems [13:08] <_unreal_> then you have free space [13:09] dididodo, do you ever run autoclean and autoremove after upgrades? [13:09] yes, i try that first ... thank you ... i will make space on the hdd and then lets see [13:09] actually, my problem with window resize is only with gnome-nautilus [13:09] BluesKaj, no, only apt-cache clean [13:10] <_unreal_> arrrg. dog is begging to go out. [13:11] dididodo,di never heard of apt-cache clean [13:11] sorry 'apt-get clean' [13:12] does anyone know why my video will freeze when playing native games? the audio will keep working it's just the video [13:14] hello, I try to do port forwarding 80-> 3128 for my browser to use my proxy without changing browser settings.

[13:20] <_unreal_> using dmz [13:20] <_unreal_> that kind of defeats its self [13:20] cfhowlett: oh, it was a gnome-specific issue with the 'ambiance' ubuntu gnome theme, I switched to "Adwaita" and uninstalled the "overlay scrollbar", all is well now [13:20] Finetundra: I did not understand, I just wish that the applications I mail on port 80 through my proxy [13:21] Turingi, that there is some good detective work, Lou! [13:22] Hello [13:22] _unreal_, you're right it kinda does defeat the purpose. Graphics card is GeForce GT 525M, driver is by the same name i believe. [13:24] <_unreal_> so your using a proprietary nvidia driver? [13:24] servet, Hi [13:24] irissi, you said that you were trying to open a set of ports across a long range, so i suggested that instead of just setting a port range to use DMZ which will just forward traffic to whichever port it requires [13:24] I've set up apt-cacher-ng but I keep getting errors while updating from the client: http://pastebin.com/xJi126ga [13:25] _unreal_, yes [13:25] any clues on how to fix this? [13:25] <_unreal_> if your video is freezing, its prob one of a few things. the first thing that comes to mind is a setting in the game may be out of range for the card. though the more likely issue is the driver not being installed correctlly [13:25] are there any current issues of using intel i5-4200U with HD 4400 graphics vs. amd A10-5747M with R7 M260 graphics? [13:25] with ubuntu that is === zz is now known as uporot [13:25] <_unreal_> has gaming ever worked on this card with this setup or is this a new issue? [13:25] <_unreal_> is it a new video card?

[13:26] bingo [13:27] <_unreal_> have you tried glgears? [13:27] you can see why i'm a tad confused [13:27] ? [13:27] what's that? [13:27] <_unreal_> open up a konsole, and type glgears [13:27] <_unreal_> sorry [13:27] <_unreal_> glxgears [13:28] oh [13:35] 有没有中国的 [13:35] _unreal_, this is what system details gives me [13:35] GeForce GT 525M/PCIe/SSE2 [13:35] 出来扯淡 [13:35] Using Ubuntu 14.04.

[13:47] he's installing the nvidia driver [13:48] _unreal_, there's a program that lets you choose your driver. i just found it, ran it, and its changing it now [13:48] <_unreal_> additonal driver option [13:49] <_unreal_> additional [13:49] RDX400, not installing actually, it was already installed just not set to be used [13:49] _unreal_, that's about right [13:49] <_unreal_> well let me know how it works.

Might it be UEFI issue? [14:31] DingUp42: it should be possible to run the laptop from a LiveCD/USB and use testdisk to check what is happening with the HDD. You could also run photorec or foremost to recover files with a little luck [14:33] ola [14:33] !list [14:33] kris: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [14:33] dracnoc: thank you. Testdisk shows two partitions after analyzing (the right ones), but it does not list all files (win 8.1 user directory e.g. don't know, if it can access it in this state). Do you suggest trying photorec or foremost at this point? [14:34] DingUp42, so it is given to you, and you don't know if the windows partition is encrypted? [14:35] DingUp42: i tend to have better luck with foremost and it can recover a lot of differet file formats. be warned, if it can recover anything, they'll be in no partuclar order or with their original filenames. It will also find images inside internet browsing caches, so be prepared for pr0n ... ;-) [14:35] DingUp42: correction - better luck with photorec [14:36] I tried to add myself to a group. it worked, but i somehow removed myself from the sudoers [14:36] I am the only user of this pc and can't do anything as rootany more. How to add myself to the sudoers again? [14:36] OerHeks: I must admit, I'm not very familiar with windows, it shows files on the main partition that windows was installed on. But the user directory is not listed there or it is the one with weird numbers [14:36] dracnoc: thank you!

I know it´s not for my tablet [14:39] Would anyone mind helping me with something? I can'tseem to get Ubuntu Tweak to change the login screen [14:39] DingUp42: I would suggest using ddrescue to copy the drive or partition over to a new location while trying to repair the damaged sectors. Then using testdisk/photorec on that image. [14:39] DingUp42: You may even be able to mount it without needing the testdisk suite if ddrescue works.

[16:24] how to use restricted drivers i mean i have nomodeset in kernel to get gui [16:24] jojoma: I think the live-cd has *separate* 'live filesystem' from 'set of deb packages to install from' -- not the same!

I was under the belief that all nvidia cards are backward compatable [16:24] arm1e_: probably, if you carefully and completely describe thp problem [16:24] ok [16:24] _unreal_: no, the MX440 or something like that .. needde the nvidia-96 driver or something which is no longer supported/installable [16:25] I see where this is coming from... Thank you enyc!

[16:31] wilfried: mint-17 live is bansed upon 14.04 so *probably* will do the same but its' worth *trying* booting their live-CD just to 'compare' [16:31] charkau, maybe into your bios or with an shortcut with the FN button on your keyboard === marco is now known as Guest94442 [16:31] Hi, Ubuntu 14.04 on Gnome and suddenly screen went blank, but laptop was still running.

Did Ctrl+Alt+F1 and "gnome-shell --restart", but that gives an error. Can someone help? [16:31] wilfried: you could well find that older version e.g. mint-13 (MATE, lower resource) or ubuntu-12.04 (first LTS unity, controversial) might work better for you with its' older kernel / xorg ... [16:32] wilfried: also, older graphics cards are not expensive on ebay (assuming desktop pc) =) === elucubrate is now known as Guest70743 [16:33] my Xorg.0.log gives errors like operation not permitted, vesa fallback etc [16:34] wilfried: yes, in which case I highly reccomend trying both Mint-13-MATE and mint-17-mate live DVDs and ''see what you get'' in their Xorg.0.log and see if you get the same.

I'd be tempted to stick with 14.04LTS//Mint-17 rather than 14.10 unless you've got a good reason for the latter =/ you might find a bug somewhere. [16:38] everytime i set the 'use retina" setting in vmware and i go fullscreen, using the search function in ubuntu freezes ubuntu [16:38] but my laptop is not powerful enough to deal with virtualbox [16:38] ironman: well now you know, you can change the associations around the habit to fix it [16:38] anyone has any idea what's up with that? [16:38] so I have to do what I do now [16:38] ironman: laptop ram is not hard to get [16:38] I have 3gb [16:38] ironman: you don't need lots of cpu-power [16:38] ironman: hrrm and many ddr2-era laptops can't take more than 3gb anyway [16:39] and its slow when i open it [16:39] it was working fine on the 14.10 beta 2 [16:39] mine is ddr2 [16:39] and 5 years old [16:39] so it is okay to leave "nomodeset" in kernel or what do you need to do after driver install in nomodeset? [16:39] I just dont want to reinstall it [16:39] it will waste atleast 3 working days [16:39] ironman: you may be better off reinstalling 14.04 (or mint-17-mate, to reduce resource usage) and then set up some 32bit virtualbox machines for playing with... 3gb is enough to run 2 systems unless you have huge ram-hogging-programs [16:39] to get up and running again [16:40] so I should reinstall it [16:40] enyc thanks a lot [16:41] enyc where are you from?

[18:01] kevindf: no, 192.168.0.1 is an IPv4 address [18:01] kevindf: no. that's v6 only. [18:02] how can i find the IPV4 subnet range? as i can't seem to find it anywhere [18:02] kevindf: IPv6 range depends what your ISP is announcencg to you. Note that you do not nuromalyl use any equivalent to ''private'' IP addresses in IPv6 [18:02] from my network [18:02] kevindf: look for the mask: portion of `ifconfig -a` output or in /etc/network/interfaces if it's static configured [18:02] kevindf: Your default subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0 [18:02] kevindf: though a lot of ISPs' don't offer IPv6 to customers... hassle them! [18:02] Verizon does :D [18:02] teward: you're saying that 192.168.0.1 is ipv6 address? [18:02] Guest58703: back [18:03] Guest58703: no, reread what kevindf asked initially [18:03] kevindf: wrt my comment, i meant /64 is v6 only [18:03] arm1e: now check how sound behaves currently [18:03] kevindf: typically, the default netmask for that kind of network is 255.255.255.0, or /16 [18:03] mask is 255.255.255.0 yes [18:04] kevindf: but that's also kind of dependent on how your netowrk was initially configured. in your case as you said, it's a /16 range. [18:04] kevindf: that's 192.168.0.0/24 [18:04] Guest58703: working ok. Little but crackly buy usb should sort that tomorrow [18:04] ok thanks [18:04] oop /24 [18:04] yes i'm tired [18:04] kevindf: confimring what daftykins said :0 [18:04] :) & [18:04] blah, whatever... [18:04] arm1e: I'm not sure why you're talking about USB. Do you have USB speakers? [18:05] arm1e: I just don't know how they fit into the situation. [18:05] what's the place to add Xorg directives now that xorg.conf does not exist? [18:05] arm1e: *how USB fits into the situation [18:05] Guest58703: no, I am going to buy a usb sound card for headset as this should help sort the backgroun hiss [18:05] arm1e: ah, OK [18:05] daftykins. while trying to delete partition. here's came out [18:05] Partition(s) 3 on /dev/sda have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use. As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now before making further changes. [18:05] Guest58703: thanks for your help (even though neither of us knows why its working) [18:05] cause i'm trying to add routed VPN to connect to subet behind vpn server and allowed that in iptables with this "sudo iptables -I FORWARD -i tun0 -o eth0 -s 10.8.0.0/24/mask -d 192.168.0.0/24/mask -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT" [18:06] should i remove the /mask? [18:06] karl: that's fair enough, reboot and boot the live session again [18:06] okay thanks. i'll be bakc. thank you so much for helping. [18:07] no problem [18:07] arm1e: you're welcome. I think scanning all the configuration files before and after this operation could tell us something worthwile looking take a look at, but I have never had time to check. [18:07] hey, for some reason logind in 14.10 isn't listing my pci-e graphics card as a seat. it lists integrated gpu as seat0. /lib/udev/rules.d/71-nvidia.rules is in tact and looks fine. any ideas why logind doesn't see the card as a seat? [18:09] fn brightness keys don;t work in ubuntu 14.10 it worked earlier in ubuntu 14.04 so i might be fixed in the future with updates ? [18:10] hey guys. anyone have a spare Google inbox invite?

I´m trying to do something a bit out off my leauge. Can´t get it to work so asking for help. I have a Windows 8.1 tablet, (HP elitepad 900 g1) that I´m trying to try Ubuntu on or Gnome. I have a sdcard that boots to grub, but when i press Try ubuntu the screen just dosent load more, the tablet get stuck there. Any suggestion? (testing if someone has logged on) [18:21] bobin89: I think the best place for that question is likely to be in #ubuntu-touch Thats where most of the support for tablet versions is [18:21] RDX400: my computer still tries to start windows witouth giving me an option to choose the OS [18:21] hello daftykins [18:21] im back [18:22] now my HD on gpart says it is unallocated [18:22] ben_g: what are you trying to do? [18:22] daftykins: now my HD on gpart says it is unallocated [18:22] karl: great, i'd run the installer now [18:22] soooo [18:23] okay [18:23] DJones [18:23] Guest58703: dual-boot ubuntu and win10 [18:23] karl: i would advise to avoid choosing encryption and then just tell it to install using the whole disk [18:23] when will the "LTS Enablement Stack" be available in trusty? [18:23] DJones: I think that channel is dead or something like that [18:23] okay i see. i've been choosing that the whole time [18:23] ben_g: which was installed first? [18:23] Ubuntu [18:24] bobin89: I doubt its dead, probably just a smaller channel taking longer to get responses [18:24] ben_g: you have to start your system from Ubuntu live CD, mount filesystem, update grub configuration, then reinstall grub. Did you try that? [18:24] Hello, how can I scan wireless networks? [18:24] I have ubuntu 14 [18:25] On my SD card in my Ubuntu laptop I have a Fedora system for my banana pi pc. How can I make the files on the boot partition of the SD card belong to user root? This user does not exist on Ubuntu. [18:25] ben_g: do you know how to do it? [18:25] I just did that with the help of RDX400, but when I start my computer without my ubuntu flash drive inserted, it immediately boots windows [18:25] the following partitions are going to be formatted? should i just continue? [18:26] anyone knows? [18:26] ben_g: would you be able to provide us with the exact sequence of commands you typed AND their output ? [18:27] Unfortunately not, since I can't save anything in the live mode [18:27] Is that possible at all? [18:27] daftykins: there goes the error again [18:28] ben_g: if you can't save anything in the live mode, how did you reinstall grub? It should make changes on the hard disk. [18:28] eeee: the root user exists. its just not login enabled. but you can use sudo and chown then [18:28] the attempt to mount a file system with type vfat in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) at /boot/efi failed. [18:28] chown does not work: permission denied [18:28] daftykins: is that okay? [18:28] I don't know, but it says I don't have permission if I try to save something [18:28] !sudo | eeee [18:28] eeee: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [18:28] ben_g: so you probably didn't reinstall grub [18:29] ben_g: right now you are in the live mode, yes? [18:29] daftykins: the attempt to mount a file system with type vfat in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) at /boot/efi failed. is this okay? [18:29] yes, and in the terminal output, it said that the installation finished succesfully [18:30] ben_g: did you reboot? [18:30] k1l, chown: changing ownership of ‘script.bin’: Operation not permitted [18:30] eeee: ok, which part of "use sudo" did you not understand? [18:31] karl: looks like you've got a booting EFI vs. legacy issue, have a read of... [18:31] daftykins: i clicked continue andnothin's happening. [18:31] !uefi | karl [18:31] k1l, sudo chown root:root script.bin [18:31] karl: 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 [18:31] Guest58703: off course. How else should I know it starts booting windows when I don't use the flash drive? [18:31] oaky thanks i will [18:31] eeee: what filesystem is it? [18:31] maybe /path/to/script.bin [18:32] k1l, 83 [18:32] ben_g: did you update grub before reinstalling it?

[19:17] first thing i lookup everytime i boot into ubuntu is how to open a terminal (ctrl alt T) [19:17] ben_g: normally, with bootable media unattached except the one from which you want to have your Linux normally booted [19:18] ben_g: which is, I suppose, your hard disk [19:18] ok [19:18] steve jobs would have designers not only fired but assassinated for this [19:18] GnarSith: why? [19:18] cuz interface wasnt self explanatory [19:19] and therefore pissed a bunch of people off unnecessarily [19:20] GnarSith: I don't agree with you on this point. Ctrl+alt+T is, in my opinion, very intuitive for opening the terminal. [19:20] good look with increased adoption [19:20] where i can meet documentation on the 'IP' option of initramfs ?

Just type: [19:32] apt-get install lilo [19:32] ben_g: Then reboot [19:33] arvut, With more than one linux and grub setup you don't move it other than in the mbr equal area of that funky setup you have. [19:33] Just a question when i want use an existing /home with a live-cd is it possible to give the information to grub before the boot... === jottr_ is now known as jottr [19:33] LILO configuration │ │ │ │ It seems to be your first LILO installation.

I suppose reinstalling the system will be annoying, but not a disaster? [19:41] Well, it's possible to do that witouth loosing all my files, isn't it? I've done that before when I messed up with drivers [19:41] ben_g: try [19:41] sudo -s /bin/bash [19:41] update-grub [19:41] And then reboot.

[19:47] ben_g: type sudo umount /dev/sda2 [19:47] EriC^^: It's indeed efi and came preinstalled with win8 [19:47] ben_g: ok [19:47] ben_g: if you are on live medium, you need to do "mount -t proc proc /mnt//proc" and "mount --rbind /dev /mnt//dev" and "mount --rbind /sys /mnt//sys" before you can chroot into it. assuming you have mounted your ubuntu partition first. also make sure "swapon /dev/sdX#" is done before you chroot (substitute X and # with correct letter and number for your swap) [19:49] ben_g: done? [19:49] will this work if i'm runnin Gnome? wget -q -O - https://fixubuntu.com/fixubuntu.sh | bash [19:49] EriC^^: first commadn: mount: mount point /mnt/sda2/proc does not exist [19:49] jayar: no need to [19:50] ben_g: that's sudo umount /dev/sda2 ? [19:50] ben_g: try sudo umount /media/ubuntu/d19502d5-8a86-45e4-9eec-9af24b61204d [19:50] kk thnx [19:51] it was at the mount -t proc proc /mnt/sda2/proc [19:52] ben_g: you can use tab completion for that btw, type the first few letters and press tab [19:53] how do i fix my "apt-file update"? [19:53] ben_g: did you mount your ubuntu partition? [19:53] xbashx: what is broken? [19:53] xbashx: can you pastebin a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"? [19:53] arvut: I think it's mounted, yes [19:53] ben_g: you can try to press the eject button in nautilus to unmount it btw [19:54] ben_g: type "mount" [19:54] arvut: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8692849/ [19:55] ben_g: there is no /dev/sda2 there [19:55] ben_g: is /dev/sda2 your ubuntu partition? [19:55] k1l: thats the apt-file update output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8692857/ [19:55] yes [19:56] then mount it [19:56] mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/ [19:56] make sure you create the mountpoint first [19:56] mkdir /mnt/ [19:56] you can use any name you want for mountpoint [19:57] done [19:57] now run the other commands [19:59] swapon /dev/sda# (# is the number which your swap partition is on) if you don't know, run blkid and see which one says TYPE="swap" [19:59] I think it is either /dev/sda3 or /dev/sda4 [19:59] depending on if you have a /home partition or not [19:59] xbashx: hmm, try a "apt-get update" first? maybe the package list is outdated? [19:59] ben_g: type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt [19:59] ben_g: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi [20:00] EriC^^: he's in a root prompt so no need for sudo [20:00] k1l: i tried that without success. but maybe the spotify repo and the extras repo dont offer these file lists at all [20:01] xbashx: yeah, possible, i am not familiar with apt-file [20:01] arvut: swapon failed [20:02] arvut: swapon: dev/sda3: stat failed: No such file or directory [20:03] ben: not missing leading / by chance? [20:04] Church: swapon: /dev/sda3: swapon failed: Device or resource busy [20:05] ben: cat /proc/swap ; ls -l /dev/sda3 ; check if minor major numbers are not the same, thus maybe it already is in use for swap? [20:05] erm. cat /proc/swaps that is [20:05] ben_g: don't forget /dev/sda3, note the extra slash there [20:06] Church: cat: /proc/swap: No such file or directory [20:06] ben: /proc/swaps === jack is now known as Guest5092 [20:06] Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/sda3 partition 6162428 0 -1 [20:06] terminal cannot interpret what you want to do, you have to be very precise [20:06] where i can read about secret undocumented features of initramfs tools ? [20:07] so if it's there, then you are already swaping on it [20:07] exhibitor: check arch wiki and gentoo wiki, might be something interesting there [20:07] Since it's my swap partition, I guess it makes sence [20:07] im not sure if they have secret undocumented features there tho [20:08] well, google is indexing everything is even hard to find. [20:08] Anyway, what should I do to continue? [20:09] exhibitor: ask the devs [20:09] k1l, yea, i see this is the only way. here starts a 2-months journey... [20:10] if swap is on (which it seems to be) then "mount -t proc proc /mnt/sda2/proc", "mount --rbind /dev /mnt/sda2/dev" & "mount --rbind /sys /mnt/sda2/sys" [20:10] ben_g: that was meant for you [20:10] then "chroot /mnt/sda2 /bin/bash" and off you go [20:10] ben_g: what's up? [20:10] mounted the efi partition? [20:11] mount: mount point /mnt/sda2/proc does not exist [20:12] ben_g:/proc is on the root [20:12] As is /mnt [20:12] simonor: it was executed as root@ubuntu:~# mount -t proc proc /mnt/sda2/proc [20:13] Linux uses a Virtual File System with a unified namespace [20:14] ben_g:talking root file system, not root user === vpex is now known as vpex_ === vpex_ is now known as vpex [20:14] Try ls / and you should see /proc [20:14] so how should I do it? [20:15] and I see proc without the / [20:15] Sorry ben, I'm a late ccomer. What are you trying to do? [20:16] Hi, I'm wondering how I should go about backing up my wireless settings (packages and drives) so I don't have to go through the whole installation process if I were to start fresh. [20:16] Tat's right, proc should contain all the processes(I think) [20:16] simonor: I have installed both Ubuntu and Windows 10 on this laptop, and I'm trying to set up the bootloader so I can boot to both (it currently only boots to Windows since that was installed last) [20:17] gpt2 in grub.cfg (on efi partition) indicates 2nd partition, yes? === mangel_ is now known as miquel [20:17] Sorry ben. Dual boot is outside my experience since efi. === mangel_ is now known as miquel [20:18] But are you using Grub2? [20:18] ben_g: you are aware of that windows 10 beta has a built-in keylogger, right? [20:19] simonor: I don't know [20:20] arvut: I know it collects lots of information from it's users, but I don't really have an other choice [20:20] does ## comment the lines in grub.cfg? [20:20] If you hit shift on boot, you should see options if it's Grub. [20:20] ben_g: windows 8.1 and windows 7 has no keyloggers in it tho [20:20] i tried testdisk to recover some files from an external hard drive. after i found the partition i pressed write and it wants me to reboot for effects to take change. I am afraid it will mess my main working hard drive. or it is not going to do that? [20:21] ben_g: I'd say you have a choice, you can run any OS you want and you can also choose to not run windows [20:22] nuke1989: maybe make a secure backup first then, its always recommended to backup before you do any big changes to your system [20:22] I need to use windows for some school programs that are to heavy to run well in a virtual machine, windows 8 and windows 8.1 are extremely unstable on my computer because of a bug in them, while windows 7 and earlier windows versions are blocked in the hardware [20:22] !fixgrub | ben_g [20:22] ben_g: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [20:23] arvut, i dont want to do anything to my main hard disk. i am recovering an external one. i am just wondering why it wants to reboot my system [20:23] ben_g: have you seen this? [20:24] So long chaps. Looks like y'all have it under control. [20:24] wafflej0ck: not that one, but I've seen some similar pages [20:24] I'll try the graphical way in it since I haven't done that yet [20:25] ben_g: what programs? [20:26] mainly Inventor. It requires a lot of RAM, so it's extremely slow and also rather unstable in a VM [20:27] nuke1989: it might be a standard approach for that program, I assume its mostly used on disks that are on your actual machine, and not so often for external drives. have you consulted the manpages for it? [20:27] not really :/ [20:28] Hi guys, I'm using a ubuntu virtual box on windows, and I'm having trouble with various commands which work fine on the same vm on a mac [20:28] what can cause 14.10 to leave a trail of pointer arrows across the screen? [20:28] the biggest issue is it is unable to find files which are there [20:29] for example, if I run bin/bundle in a ruby on rails project, it complains that the file is not found [20:29] any ideas as to why this might be happening? [20:29] suraj: probably isn't there [20:29] @reisio, but it is [20:29] could this be a symlinking issue? [20:30] if i cd into the directory and run it, it runs fine [20:30] ben_g: I hardly think windows 10 is less stable on your hardware than windows 8.1 or windows 8. since its a "Technical previev" and less than a month old, according to wikipedia the latest "technical preview" is 5 days old [20:30] evilbug: sounds like something with X or your drivers are you using Additional Drivers [20:30] suraj: sounds like a path issue then [20:30] suraj: if it were a symlinking issue, then they wouldn't be the same, which is what they probably aren't anyways [20:30] suraj: better to tackle a specific case [20:30] ben_g: also, have you tried running those windows programs in wine? [20:30] I've accidentally the whole [20:30] how would i fix this? I've been trying to fix this for a while. [20:30] arvut: looks pretty heavy [20:31] arvut: it's a 3D modelling program from Autodesk for advanced CAD [20:31] suraj: is there some reason you have two versions of the same thing? [20:31] k [20:31] @waffle, okay. I have a rails project directory, and inside the directory I am trying to run "bin/bundle ,,," [20:31] arvut: maybe could happen in wine though who knows? [20:31] there is only one such file in there [20:31] wafflej0ck: some nvidia drivers i believe. this is my dad's computer and he's in another country, i just recall him asking me about the issue. [20:31] basically any command which has a folder in front of it is failing [20:31] ben_g: you could get more ram [20:31] like bin/bundle, or something/file [20:31] wafflej0ck: a lot of heavy software runs perfectly fine in wine nowadays [20:31] I've accidentally deleted part of my home dir. Luckily it was a fresh install. How can I reinstall files under home dir from stock? [20:31] arvut: yeah true just not sure if all the dependencies could be found/installed too [20:32] lot of heavy software always did [20:32] if i cd into the folder, with "cd bin && bundle..." it works [20:32] not autodesk inventor, though :) [20:32] wafflej0ck: ppl run games like battlefield 3 in wine, so why wouldn't a 3D modelling program do fine? [20:32] suraj: 'bin/bundle' means nothing, './bin/bundle' means run it [20:32] wafflej0ck: altho, it is worth a try [20:32] arvut: typically people use really high end workstations for these programs and really can't lose any performance, but you're right wine can be just as fast so long as everything is in place I suppose [20:33] reisio, let me try that [20:33] HEllo [20:33] suraj: at least, frequently :) [20:33] same thing [20:33] arvut: I know they make specialized drivers for these programs too though [20:33] no such file or directory [20:33] suraj: the executable might assume you ran it from its dir, too [20:33] i think this is some sort of vm issue [20:33] suraj: it could be, but probably isn't [20:33] suraj: is it chmod +x'd? [20:33] basically a lot of commands are failing, i'm trying to solve it by debugging this specific case [20:33] yes, I manually chmod'd it as well [20:34] another issue was that for scripts, it was trying to interpret blank lines and failing [20:34] someone has a spare google inbox invite please ? [20:34] well pick one issue :) [20:34] wafflej0ck: yeah, I have no experience with this kind of software myself, altho I did consider learning it. got an old book that covers Pro Engineer 4.0 Wildfire. which is a CAD program [20:35] okay, the path issue then reisio :) [20:35] arvut: yeah just know because I was recently bidding on setting up some workstations for running SolidWorks and was reading up on why they wanted the Quadro cards [20:35] suraj: cd to bin, then run 'file bundle' [20:35] > bundle: a ruby\015 script text executable [20:36] that's what i got [20:36] suraj: realllllyyyy [20:36] suraj: with \015? [20:36] yes [20:37] really frustrating as i haven't had these issues with other vms [20:37] if you're familar with vagrant, this is the setup file for the box - https://github.com/surajreddy/helpful-web/blob/master/Vagrantfile [20:38] suraj: cat -etv bundle | egrep '\^M' [20:38] evilbug: sorry got on a few conversations there at once... in the Additional Drivers program you should see multiple options for the nvidia driver you may want to try one of the alternatives to whatever you have loaded right now... if you lose the display check out nomodeset boot flag you can put into the boot entry using grub [20:38] in the bundle folder, right? [20:38] !nomodeset > evilbug [20:38] evilbug, please see my private message [20:38] suraj: sure [20:38] this is what I get; https://gist.github.com/surajreddy/9c935a2f4d190936244c [20:39] evilbug: basically nomodeset will fallback to the generic drivers so if some change to the drivers makes it so you can't get a display typically nomodeset will get you back to a GUI [20:39] suraj: okay, run dos2unix bundle && ./bundle [20:39] wafflej0ck: for shizzle! i'll try it out next time i talk to him. thanks. [20:39] evilbug: np [20:40] command not found for dos2unix [20:40] so apt-get install that? [20:40] wafflej0ck: on one hand i just want to punch him in the face because i've kept telling him to stick with an lts that just works for him and he doesn't listen! so anger, much mad! [20:40] Couldn't find package dos2unix [20:40] this is ubuntu 10.x [20:40] wafflej0ck: he's not a computer person really so i don't see his need to "experiment" with new stuff. [20:41] evilbug: heh yeah I stick with LTS for the machine I do work on (really typically all of them) [20:41] suraj: Whoch 10.x? 10.04 or 10.10? [20:41] Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS [20:41] suraj: yeah just install it [20:41] it's very handy [20:41] i tried, it couldn't find the package - i'll try again [20:41] suraj: why so old? [20:41] suraj: oh okay, 1min [20:41] suraj: it's in universe [20:42] @waffle, this is a vm box shared for a project I'm trying to work on [20:42] wafflej0ck: Because 10.04 is still supported, on a a server. [20:42] I didn't create it :( [20:42] bekks: ah, but that's not what he said [20:42] best let people speak for themselves [20:42] bekks: yeah figured it was still being updated since LTS good to know but just wondering why be 2 LTS versions behind [20:43] trying this [20:43] http://www.virtualhelp.me/linux/164-dos2unix-missing-ubuntu-1004 [20:43] suraj: that's fine though just wondering why you would have set one up now using 10.04 [20:43] suraj: makes sense [20:43] hi all, java was recently automatically installed with the latest update (trusty 64 bit), I want to prevent the service from starting up with the system, and there's no entry in init.d. how can I do that? [20:44] suraj: okay do this instead: cat bundle | tr -d '\r' > newbundle; cat newbundle > bundle; ./bundle [20:44] stevendumani, java is a browserplugin AFAIK [20:44] stevendumani: what service is starting up? Java typically just runs if you execute something with it [20:44] doesn't fn keys (brightness) in ubuntu 14.10 but it worked in 14.04 it will be fixed with the future updates ? [20:44] wafflej0ck: on one hand i don't like mucking about with experimental stuff since i care more about stability for the things i work with. otherwise i'd probably be a full time arch user :D [20:44] suraj: that thing you linked should work, too, though, but [20:44] that did it reisio [20:44] stevendumani: like Jenkins uses Java or I've written lots of little jav apps [20:44] suraj: don't make links (sudo ln) [20:45] how do i fix this system wide? [20:45] evilbug: ah haven't taken the Arch plunge myself yet, the rolling release does sound good but I really need a stable system for work (web dev) [20:45] suraj: let's see... [20:45] I think it could be that the file it's reading is a shared folder from windows [20:45] suraj: you should probably do it mostly on a case-by-case basis [20:45] can i ask an ipython question? [20:45] I have done this for other projects and it works fine - but on this vm i think the windows line endings are screwing things up bad [20:46] suraj: yup [20:46] a lot of thing are failing though - startup scripts, environment variable scripts, etc. === chefatlinuxx is now known as cooperDJ === NotANick_ is now known as NotANick === cooperDJ is now known as marux [20:46] wafflej0ck: i web dev too! and i also work in audio so i'm mostly on mac os. [20:47] wafflej0ck: and in the audio world especially stability is key since there's so much 3rd party software and hardware that can crash because of the smallest incompatibilities or whatever. [20:47] can someone help me with Mdadm>? [20:47] I tried the graphical way of fixing grub, and while booting, it still goes straight to Windows, not showing a menu to choose the OS [20:47] Cant get it to configure since updating to 14.04 [20:48] and its preventing me from unisntalling and installing apps [20:48] This was the output of boot-repair: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8693383/ [20:48] evilbug: yeah audio is very finicky (particularly on linux) [20:48] installing this seems to fix things -> http://www.virtualhelp.me/linux/164-dos2unix-missing-ubuntu-1004 [20:48] thanks for the help everyone! been trying to fix this for days [20:49] wafflej0ck this means firefox requested installing it? as far as i know java always have security issues, and I prefer not to let it run. OK I just tried about:plugins in firefox but there's no java there, I just killed it it was a process named java and using 240 MB of RAM! so there should be something wrong I guess? anywayz... suggestions? [20:50] suraj: yeah hang on [20:50] stevendumani: I don't think you absolutely need Java, though there are a fair amount of programs out there written in Java I don't think anything in the core system really requires it... let me see if there's a way to trace down what java process is associated with which actual java program [20:51] stevendumani: try, jps -m [20:51] stevendumani: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6283167/list-of-java-processes [20:51] stevendumani: when the java process is running [20:51] stevendumani: should show you what JAR (java archive, bunch of bytecode .class files and a manifest file in a zip) is being run by Java [20:52] waffle pm :) [20:52] suraj: this'll fix a specific directory: find name_of_directory/ -type f -exec bash -c "if grep -Plqr '\x0d' "{}"; then fromdos "{}"; fi" \; [20:52] suraj: I would only run it on a case-by-case basis :) [20:52] sounds good, thanks reisio! [20:53] well this sucks. [20:53] I just installed and configured Ubuntu 14.04 to my liking [20:53] and 14.10 comeso ut [20:53] Foxhoundz: so update [20:53] or don't [20:53] is there any way to upgrade Ubuntu and back up my existing /home, /var/www folders? [20:53] How though [20:53] HOW reisio ??? [20:54] sudo apt-get upgrade? [20:54] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UtopicUpgrades [20:54] wafflej0ck it's openjdk-7-jdk [20:57] but i'm wondering why it was automatically installed, it's usually optional, you can manually install it right? should i uninstall it from the software center history? there is openjdk-7-jre and openjdk-7-jre-headless. should I remove them both? [20:57] umm [20:57] problem. [20:57] wafflej0ck but i'm wondering why it was automatically installed, it's usually optional, you can manually install it right? should i uninstall it from the software center history? there is openjdk-7-jre and openjdk-7-jre-headless. should I remove them both? [20:57] sudo do-release-upgrade returns nothing [20:57] it says no release found [20:58] you're probably looking for lts only [20:58] Foxhoundz: make sure the release prompt is set to normal and not lts only [20:58] if you edit /etc/update-notifier.conf there should be a line you can change to normal rather than lts [20:58] k1l: how do I go about doing that? [20:58] actually, that might not be the right filename, i forget [20:58] Foxhoundz: and i bet its described in the link you were given. so please start reading and not just scroll to the command [20:58] gac: its wrong [20:59] Foxhoundz: easiest method is using the system settings for software and updates if its a desktop [20:59] k1l: I should not I'm doing this via ssh [20:59] wafflej0ck forget it and sorry for bothering u :) I found the program that needs java it's called zekr :D [20:59] hi [20:59] so no gui applications can be used, which that links suggests I do [21:00] !list [21:00] giaret: No warez here!

What do I do now? [21:18] -sv not -sh [21:18] you can confirm bad sectors by looking at your SMART info [21:18] install smartmontools then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX" where X is your hard disk [21:19] run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX | pastebinit" with the package "pastebinit" installed, to share the result with us if you'd like a second opinion === lbaway is now known as luckybunny [21:19] Chromium screws up its UI when it tries to show a hint or a drop down menu while it's maximized, but it doesn't if it's not maximized. I figured it was a Unity bug, so can anyone reproduce this? [21:19] well badblocks locked my partition as read-only when it crashed, so I'll have to do this after a reboot (unless there's a better option for restoring writability?) [21:20] daftykins: But, assuming I do have bad sectors (which badblocks reported immediately before crashing), what do I do to fix it? Replace my hdd or is there another possible option? [21:21] linelevel: when a disk gets even one bad sector i consider it toast, replace it and move on [21:21] linelevel: if it's in warranty, you can seek a replacement [21:22] daftykins: Thanks, no warranty. This is a 5-year-old Thinkpad T410 with magnetic drive. Maybe I'll see if I can replace it with solid state. === Stu|[A] is now known as Stu| [21:22] linelevel: sounds like a good plan! [21:22] linelevel: does smartctl show there are many? [21:23] linelevel: you might want to stop using it if so, until you can make a backup [21:24] daftykins: I can't run that until I reboot, as mentioned. Every time I try to read from a bad sector all my partitions become read-only until I reboot. Not sure why, "mount" still shows them as 'rw'. [21:25] linelevel: i would perform my instructions from a live session [21:25] linelevel: if you know that bad sectors you can cut off bad areas while repartitioning and continue to use the drive for some time [21:25] that's a terribly unsafe idea [21:25] linelevel: errors=remount-ro set in /etc/fstab maybe... [21:26] SonikkuAmerica: Tried to check.. unable to read from /etc/fstab ... I better reboot [21:26] daftykins: How do I do it from a live session? [21:27] linelevel: boot a live session, install smartmontools and pastebinit, run the command [21:28] What do you mean by "boot a live session" [21:28] boot a live usb [21:28] you mean from a LiveCD, as opposed to my hdd OS? [21:28] got it. [21:28] linelevel: yep === blackbeard is now known as ramblingpirate [21:29] linelevel: a live session can either be booted from cd, usb stick or other medium (probably from a sd-card too) [21:29] Okay, thanks, Rebooting now, will report back. [21:29] linelevel: you can even boot it via network [21:32] hello [21:32] Is there a console utility to download files via sftp which supports resume? Like wget -c [21:32] 'lo [21:33] wildwind: how about wget? === Stu| is now known as Stu|[A] [21:36] Hey #ubuntu I'm stuck :( After installing 14.10 last night my system has started hanging randomly, and quite frequently. Its happened again just now for the 5th time today [21:36] dmesg [21:37] dmesg actually isn't returning anything of interest [21:37] /var/log/syslog [21:37] And interestingly my mouse still works and sound from banshee or chrome still works [21:37] jbud: intel video card? [21:37] Also I'm on my laptop just now, and I'm able to ssh into my system while its hung right now [21:37] nvidia, using nouveau [21:37] xserver? [21:38] But the same happened when I was on the proprietary drivers too [21:39] ramblingpirate: X.org X Server 1.16.0 [21:39] ramblingpirate: I ran Xorg -v through the ssh, and its also giving me: "Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)" [21:39] maybe try oibaf and/or xorg-edgers ppa just to see what happens. Nobody can really do anything without logs though. [21:39] reisio: wget doesn't support sftp [21:41] wildwind: I'd use sshfs & rsync [21:41] wildwind: but I imagine curl or lftp would do it, too === tice is now known as Blazphme [21:46] reisio: i didn't know about lftp, thank you [21:46] ramblingpirate: Since I can still ssh into the system (obviously still running), but cannot switch to any other workspace, can I at least narrow my issue down to X/Xorg? [21:46] hi guys! [21:46] wildwind: probably curl would be better, but lftp is nice from an "ftp client" perspective [21:46] * reisio would still use sshfs & rsync [21:46] HikaruBG: heya [21:46] I have nginx that takes port 80 and apache is down [21:46] jbud: yeah, I would start looking there. Since your cursor and playback is still working, and you can ssh, i'd looking into xorg [21:46] how to remove that? [21:47] like I said, maybe add the oibaf ppa and see if it helps or hurts. [21:47] then you at least have a direction to head in [21:47] Thx :) [21:47] HikaruBG: remove what, nginx? [21:48] yep [21:48] Thx :) [21:48] HikaruBG: probably something like sudo service nginx stop [21:49] reisio, it says that there is not such service... Aghhhh I need to figure out what is going on first [21:49] reisio: i have some large files to download and unstable 3G link with metered traffic. that's the reason for the whole thing. i doubt would be better in my case. [21:49] reisio, I will ask again when I have more ingo [21:50] wildwind: curl's always better :p [21:50] but sometimes works is good enough, heh [21:50] HikaruBG: you might want to check with #nginx too [21:51] wildwind: rsync does support continuing downloads if they get disconnected it is pretty nice, but adds some overhead to the traffic so would eat into the bandwidth more probably [21:51] If I want the wacom driver to handle a HID device, which file would I have to edit? changing /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf doesn't appear to work [21:52] HikaruBG: do you want to disable it permanently? [21:54] something went wrong during the ubuntu installation [21:54] nvm it's working again [21:54] Foxhoundz: heh that was quick :) [21:54] it froze on unpacking ubuntu-desktop (14.10) over (14.04) [21:55] Foxhoundz: ah yeah, really curious why you wanted to upgrade too though, just scrolled back and saw the brief conversation before you started updating [21:55] Foxhoundz: 14.04 is LTS so it will be supported for longer 14.10 is considered unstable and is for testing things upcoming in 15.04 [21:55] OK guys [21:56] Foxhoundz: with the 6 month release cycle I think it would be a bit maddening to backup and upgrade for every single version (I'll try things out on a liveCD or VirtualBox) === diddledan_ is now known as diddledan [21:56] how long are the LTS versions supported for? [21:56] Foxhoundz: pretty sure it's 4 years [21:56] shouldn't be... you should be backing up constantly anyways [21:56] !lts [21:56] LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [21:56] 5 years [21:56] reisio: well I use duplicity [21:56] :) I have gitlab running parallel to apache2. Gitlab uses nginx server to listen to port 80, and apache can't start because port 80 is taken [21:57] reisio: for like backing up my home and everything else is on git on a VPS [21:57] reisio: but still always do clonezilla before major system upgrades [21:57] how can I configure gitlab to act as a namersrver on port 80 parallel to the apache [21:57] ? [21:57] wafflej0ck: clonezilla is a waste of time [21:57] don't know duplicity, but it's probably less so [21:58] HikaruBG: did you read their installation guide? === vox_ is now known as vox [21:58] reisio: has saved me before and easier than doing all the dd manually and gives you a bootable CD that can access a NAS [21:58] yep [21:58] they advice using different port [21:58] reisio: I have Clonezilla on an external USB drive too so I can just plug that in and boot off it and store the images to it or restore them [21:58] wafflej0ck: easier than dd if=foo of=bar? :p [21:59] reisio: well the network config and mounting parts really [21:59] I'm not saying it won't work, just that it takes more effort than other things [21:59] reisio: depends on your setup, I like clonezilla in that I can just plug this drive into whatever computer and as long as it can boot from USB I'm good to go [22:00] well, that's what a duplicate of your system is good for [22:00] clonezilla is one way to get a duplicate [22:01] reisio: right but clonezilla names the directories and makes it so I can store multiple drive backups on a single drive without managing that stuff myself either... I dunno I guess if you're really comfy with dd it's the same but I like having the prompts and not having to write the dd commands myself etc. etc. [22:01] Hello. My autocomplete is not working anymore in bash [22:02] it has other advantages over dd too [22:02] wafflej0ck: I like knowing what is going on [22:02] like it uses filesystem aware tools to save dumps of your partitions [22:02] so that I don't make useless backups that requires a specific version of a specific app to utilize [22:02] reisio: it's just using dd [22:02] reisio: I used dd before using clonezilla too [22:02] wafflej0ck: but you don't know how [22:02] it just makes it easier [22:02] until it doesn't :p [22:03] but what I actually meant by clonezilla being a waste of time [22:03] reisio: it tells you the commands it will run and saves all of it to a file along with the lshw output [22:03] is that dd in general is [22:03] wafflej0ck: oh that's good [22:03] I dunno I've been using it for a few years and it's been good to me :) [22:03] if it works it works :p [22:05] reisio: yeah insofar as duplicity goes it's built into Gnome 3 and integrated with the file browser but I have more fear of that project disappearing than clonezilla [22:05] but for now it is pretty hands off and nice to have daily incremental backups [22:05] I'm planning to reinstall Ubuntu while keeping my files, but I don't really know how the partitions are set up [22:06] ben_g: check with gparted first [22:06] ben_g: why reinstall? [22:06] I like rdiff-backup for incremental [22:06] it stores diffs of altered files, rather than whole extra copies [22:06] reisio: windows screwed up all the boot stuff so I can't boot ubuntu anymore [22:06] reisio: can't fugure out how to specify alternative ssh port with curl. can't you help? [22:07] so if you trivially alter a large file, it only stores the altered part [22:08] ben_g: (RE-)install grub ? then ? [22:08] I have the ubuntu installation together with my files in /dev/sda2, do I need to use it as / or /home? [22:08] Bashing-om: I already tried that in about 5 different ways of which none worked [22:09] Bashing-om: yeah I sent him the !fixgrub links so he tried the boot-repair GUI but still not seeing windows after reboot [22:09] wildwind: don't know, maybe --resolve? [22:09] wildwind: #curl [22:09] ben_g: hold on [22:10] ben_g: are you in the live session? [22:10] wafflej0ck: :) - As always, I am late to the party . [22:10] wafflej0ck: correction: it still won't boot to ubuntu, windows starts up fine (it doesn't show a menu to choose the OS at startup) [22:10] I'm in a live session, yes [22:10] ben_g: ok, did grub used to show before? [22:11] I only had ubuntu before, so no [22:11] ok [22:11] please type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt [22:11] then type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi [22:12] EriC^^: ok [22:12] ok [22:13] ben_g: please type for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done [22:13] ok [22:13] is it a 64bit?

[22:21] no, Toshiba [22:21] ok [22:22] there's a button that gives you a boot options menu usually [22:22] try esc, and see if there's boot options [22:22] ben_g is gone. [22:22] then select ubuntu, most likely it is a hardwired bios issue [22:23] EriC^^: ben_g_ // Maybe take a gander at the partitioning ?? -> sudo parted -l <- from the liveDVD . [22:23] Bashing-om: we saw it already [22:23] I can acces the bios when I press F2 [22:23] is that what you mean? [22:23] it's an efi system with a ntfs drive [22:24] ben_g_: there's another option, it doesn't let you choose which hdd to boot, more like which .efi file to boot [22:24] ben_g_: it's called boot options here [22:24] Hi [22:24] EriC^^: ben_g_ // Maybe take a gander at the partitioning ?? -> sudo parted -l <- from the liveDVD .

[22:45] I disabled it [22:46] ok, i think this should work [22:46] first backup the efi files [22:47] sudo cp /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi.backup [22:47] l2ksolkov: you use this page initially for setting up the shared connection? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing [22:48] ben_g: and sudo cp /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.backup [22:48] wafflej0ck, i guess so, i just went to connections > wired > ipv4 settings > share this network connection and plugged the ethernet cable into the other computer. [22:49] ok [22:49] ben_g: there's the grubx64.efi which is the efi file for grub, we're going to replace the bootx64.efi one with it, and rename grub's file as bootx64 [22:50] ben_g: there's shimx64.efi which is used for secure boot, but i think you're pc isn't using it, usually efibootmgr -v should say which is being used === Unibob is now known as DJ_Unibob [22:50] l2ksolkov: think the instructions in the answer here will probably work http://askubuntu.com/questions/359856/share-wireless-internet-connection-through-ethernet [22:51] l2ksolkov: basically aside from what you did just says to setup the IP and subnet manually on the client computer so its on the same subnet as the rest of the computers being given addresses by DHCP [22:51] sudo cp /mnt/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi [22:51] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8694877/ [22:51] ben_g: and sudo cp /mnt/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi [22:51] l2ksolkov: one thing to look out for here is that the DHCP server (typically in the router) giving out addresses isn't going to give out the addresss you assign manually [22:51] * Der_Doktor tired [22:52] ok [22:53] ben_g: hold on, use shimx64.efi instead [22:53] sudo cp /mnt/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi [22:53] ben_g: and sudo cp /mnt/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi [22:54] EriC^^: ok [22:54] ben_g: ok, also let's change the boot order so ubuntu's first just in case [22:54] efibootmgr -o 0000,2001,0005,0000,0003,2003,2002 [22:55] boot entry 0 does not exist [22:55] it has to be 0000 i think [22:55] wafflej0ck, i am completely unsure how to set these in windows.

[22:56] l2ksolkov: it's in the control panel, classic mode, networking [22:56] l2ksolkov: k [22:56] I copy-pasted the command [22:56] hmm [22:56] Hello... im having an issue with pastebin... its not giving me an address to use.... $ pastebinit /var/www/clients/client0/web5/web/index.php [22:56] http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [22:56] thats all i get [22:56] try efibootmgr -o 0003,2001,0005,0000,0003,2003,2002 === lakitu_ is now known as lakitu [22:57] ah wait [22:57] sorry [22:57] l2ksolkov: you can use nmap on the linux computer to scan the network to see what devices are active too to see what IPs are used nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 [22:57] try efibootmgr -o 0000,2001,0005,0003,2003,2002 [22:57] l2ksolkov: you'd just update the 192.168.1 part with the first three octets that your network is using [22:58] boot entry 0 does not exist [22:58] again [22:58] l2ksolkov: might need to, sudo apt-get install nmap if it's not there by default [22:58] Hi. I've installed steam and installed some games (in steam). apt-get purge steam apparently only purges the steam client... but the 20 gb of games will not be purged it seems. What do I do?

[22:59] but won't purge remove some bin-directory or something with everything that's related to the packagE? [22:59] ben_g: try to restart [23:00] lolwhat: typically it purges the binaries and configuration [23:00] ok [23:00] ben_g: you could try to nuke the [23:00] windows one [23:00] lolwhat: no. just the stuff that is setup while apt-get installed that package. not what that program does after the install [23:00] huh? [23:00] hold on [23:01] guardianpwr08: Is this in relation to the 404 errors ? - seems pastebinit works for you . [23:01] k1l: can't I find some typical dir where its data is typically stored, and remove it? [23:01] Bashing-om: i dont see a 404 error? it doesnt seem to acutally send the output to pastebin [23:02] wafflej0ck, i am confused on what to put for IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. Windows networking is not my cup of tea. [23:02] lolwhat: ~/.local/share/Steam/ [23:02] ben_g: efibootmgr -b 5 -B [23:02] lolwhat, ~/Steam, ~/.local/share/Steam, ~/.steam [23:02] boot entry: 5 not found [23:03] ben_g: ok, restart [23:03] ok [23:03] guardianpwr08: Pardon me if I seem confused as there is this " guardianpwr08> http://paste.ubuntu.com/ " .. [23:03] i was using the pastebinit command to output a file to pastebine [23:03] luchibobra: so those aren't removed by default if you apt-purge? :O [23:03] but nothing happened [23:04] lolwhat: how often should i explain it again? [23:04] lolwhat: apt isn't magic, but it's handy [23:05] guardianpwr08: Then you want to 'cat' that file. For instance -> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit <- . [23:05] k1l: I mean.. it seems weird that you'll have to delete directories to uninstall software. In other OSes, all the files disappears (typically) with the uninstall process. [23:07] lolwhat: that would be the task of the steam-package to trigger that in the remove process. but apt cant do what apt doesnt know of [23:07] EriC^^: It worked, I'm now on non-live Ubuntu. Thanks [23:07] ben_g: great, np [23:07] l2ksolkov: so if you run that nmap command on the linux computer it should show you all the other IPs being used on the network (any device that responds to a ping), the IP basically just needs to not be one of those IPs but should have the same first three octets if the subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0, this mask means the first three octets have to be exactly the same for it to be considered on the same subnet, the only tricky [23:07] part here is the gateway, from the post there they use the IP shown on the "server" machine as the gateway but since in your case that's a 10.* address not a 1.* address I'm not sure if that will be a problem [23:08] lolwhat: yeah it's not typical this is a steam quirk [23:08] k1l: I understand that. Do apt have such a "trigger" for some packages (if the package has requested it)? [23:08] lolwhat: apt can run scripts on install or remove. but that is the task of the package [23:09] EriC^^: is a EFI ninja [23:10] :D [23:10] I have a nootebook which reboots instead of shutdown. I've already tried noacpi, noapic, nolapic and I tried shutdown -h -P and halt. Neither works. Any ideas what now? It's completely new machine, this is the first OS installed.

[23:16] yeah [23:16] Can anyone help me? do I need to put the ISO on a USB and boot from that? [23:16] or you could type sudo sed -i 's/bootmgfw.efi/bootmgfw.efi.backup/' /boot/grub/grub.cfg [23:17] ben_g_: grub still thinks the efi is called bootmgfw.efi , it sucks though cause every time you update-grub ( or install a new kernel ) you are going to have to run that sed command to replace the .efi file in the windows entry [23:18] ben_g_: there's a proper fix for it but i don't know what the file was that tells grub what to look for when you run update-grub [23:19] I was just wondering would it make sence to create an unencrypted partition to store movies and music? I have full drive encryption on right now... would it make it faster if i put all my movies/music in a unencrypted partition or wouldnt it? [23:19] l2ksolkov: hmm k try with the gateway as the address that the Linux "host" machine says it has assigned for the ethernet jack [23:19] But it should work for now? I don't ming running a script from Linux when Windows won't boot after an update [23:19] ben_g_: close the text file it opened and run that command in the terminal [23:20] ben_g_: yeah it should work [23:20] yeah I did that [23:20] l2ksolkov: also to test from windows use the ping command in the terminal like, ping 192.168.1.100 or whatever device you're trying to ping [23:20] Hey, I want to install Ubuntu 14.10 on a thumb drive (DataTraveler HyperX 3.0). Should I do a normal installation without /SWAP? Is there anything else I should consider? [23:21] if I have 16gb ram, will i be ok if i dont have a swap? [23:22] wafflej0ck, neither work still. [23:22] after_r: if you want to hibernate you'll need swap [23:22] ( as large as your RAM ) [23:22] after_r: if yo don't use more than 16gb of RAM :) also it's needed for hibernating but probably not a big deal if you're running off a flash [23:22] after_r: well, depends on your working flow/setup and if you want to do hibernation (which saves the RAM into the swap) [23:23] anyone notice Gnome Ubuntu 14.10 is really buggy and slow? [23:23] i usually just suspend.. but ok [23:23] after_r: saying that i am fine without swap and 8gb ram. but i am not working on video/foto editing or extensive virtualization. === bazhang is now known as Guest51563 [23:26] l2ksolkov: k on the host side what're the IP settings both the wireless and the wired would be good to know === Owner__ is now known as Guest83409 [23:26] It worked, I can boot into Windows again now === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:27] ben_g: ok, great [23:27] i got an idea, i'm searching for the file [23:27] i think i backed it up so i'm searching for *.backup maybe it comes up [23:28] wafflej0ck, www.paste.ubuntu.com/8695247 [23:29] wafflej0ck, sorry for the broken link. [23:29] I have a handful of files. I am trying to concatenate all lines of all the files while avoiding the first line of each file. I am trying cat tail -n +2 *.txt, but I am getting the file name in the cat output [23:29] How can I fix this? [23:30] l2ksolkov: no worries [23:31] guys [23:32] Hello [23:34] erikk: seems sed can do something similar, the example online to remove first line was 'sed -e "1d"' [23:34] SchrodingersScat: Do you know how I could do it with tail? [23:35] erikk: -q [23:35] erikk: man tail [23:36] SchrodingersScat: Thanks [23:38] Hi @ All :) Nooby Question: http://nopaste.info/ca2d450cba.html ... somebody have an idea why the second command at START dont work ?

[23:41] yes [23:41] SchrodingersScat , yep. it should start autom. by update-rc ... the first command seems to work, the second (sleep && ts3_bot) not [23:41] :) ty 4 help [23:42] ok, if you want back it up sudo cp /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft.backup [23:43] ben_g: then type sudo sed -i 's/bootmgfw.efi/bootmgfw.efi.backup/' /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft [23:43] err, I'm currently in windows and installing some programs, so I can't do that right now, sorry [23:44] ben_g: no problem [23:45] Hello! I am trying to create a folder in a zip file from the terminal. Can I do that? [23:46] zip test.zip newfolder/file1.txt file2.txt newfolder/file3.txt [23:47] myrick: sorry, not familiar enough with ts3server, i normally just run it from the commandline manually [23:52] can ubuntu do smooth scrolling just like in osx? [23:52] where its not emulated a mouse wheel [23:52] but its actualyl pixel precise scrolling? [23:52] Don't worry about that disgusting virus from Africa. He only has 2 years left. [23:53] nevermind [23:53] I guess gnome3 does that :) [23:53] I wonder why firefox doesnt do it [23:54] Anyone using the ancient 12.04 server LTS?
