| Rastart | daftykins thank you but there is none in italian chat at the moment | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Rastart | i tried. | 00:00 |
| daftykins | ok, just checking | 00:00 |
| daftykins | Rastart: so, nothing from "sudo fdisk -l" ? :) | 00:00 |
| Rastart | yeah but how can I translate it in english? | 00:01 |
| Rastart | so you can better help me. | 00:01 |
| daftykins | just share it in italian then i'll translate it | 00:01 |
| Rastart | thank you. | 00:01 |
| EriC^^ | a_: oh, so your bookmarks in your pc are shown in the firefox started on the ssh-server | 00:01 |
| k1l | Rastart: "export LC_ALL=C" all subsequent command output will be english | 00:01 |
| a_ | EriC^^, right | 00:02 |
| EriC^^ | i guess it has to do with the x11 forwarding | 00:03 |
| EriC^^ | yeah, it seems so | 00:05 |
| EriC^^ | a_: x11 can use your home directory, it's a setting | 00:05 |
| EriC^^ | http://www.openssh.com/faq.html#2.7 | 00:05 |
| Rastart | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8711668/ | 00:08 |
| Rastart | kll how to change it back then after this | 00:09 |
| daftykins | Rastart: the disk we are talking about, is it the 2TB one? sdg? | 00:09 |
| a_ | thats interesting, so if i ssh in a host with x11 enabled, the admin is able to read my home directory, nice | 00:09 |
| Rastart | yeah exactly. | 00:10 |
| EriC^^ | a_: i think you can disable it | 00:10 |
| Rastart | daftykins yes. | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | a_: EriC^^: It is absolutely not true that using X11 forwarding gives a command running on the remote server direct access to the home directory of the local client. | 00:11 |
| Rastart | daftykins sometimes it stop to make noise it's weird... | 00:12 |
| Rastart | now it's so silent... | 00:12 |
| daftykins | Rastart: Rastart is this a laptop or desktop? | 00:12 |
| Rastart | desktop | 00:12 |
| daftykins | Rastart: ok lets write some data to it to start with, "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdg bs=2M count=100" listen for any sound changes | 00:13 |
| a_ | Jordan_U, and what is the reason for the observed behavior (x11 tunneled firefox with all my local stuff) | 00:14 |
| EriC^^ | a_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1865457 | 00:15 |
| EriC^^ | a_: an excerpt "Firefox with -no-remote option will force it to not try to talk with an existing Firefox window/process." | 00:16 |
| Rastart | some sound..but long interval | 00:17 |
| EriC^^ | try /dev/urandom it should be jazzy | 00:18 |
| EriC^^ | :P | 00:18 |
| daftykins | Rastart: ok run this "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools" then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" and share the link | 00:18 |
| Rastart | btw what should i do with that.. | 00:18 |
| Rastart | with that command. | 00:18 |
| Rastart | it does nothing. | 00:18 |
| Jordan_U | a_: If you open an interactive terminal in the docker container, then run "firefox", are you returned to a prompt immediately, or are you not able to run more commands until you exit firefox? | 00:19 |
| daftykins | Rastart: it wrote 200MB to the disk, so it would've completed without doing much. it doesn't matter :) | 00:19 |
| minas114 | Is it worth upgrading to ubuntu 14.10? | 00:21 |
| daftykins | from what? | 00:21 |
| daftykins | 14.04? no | 00:21 |
| minas114 | 14.04 | 00:21 |
| daftykins | i'd stay with the LTS goodness personally | 00:21 |
| a_ | ok you are right | 00:23 |
| kahtahs_ | 14.10 is still too new. at least wait a few weeks | 00:23 |
| minas114 | daftykins, i used to upgrade in every release, but now I am considering to stay with the 14.04 until the next LTS.. I even set up my /home on a separate partition for this case (when upgrading), but I guess yeah, it's not worth the trouble. Is there a way to get the updated software though? | 00:23 |
| Avic | i want to install kde in ubuntu is there a recomended guide? | 00:23 |
| daftykins | minas114: nope | 00:24 |
| kahtahs_ | minas114: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports | 00:24 |
| daftykins | Avic: install kubuntu-desktop | 00:24 |
| Avic | just that? | 00:24 |
| Avic | thanks | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | Rastart: I'm still waiting for the output of "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" . | 00:26 |
| minas114 | kahtahs_, hmm, from this I understand that there is a risk that something could break | 00:26 |
| minas114 | so what do you guys do to get latest updates / new versions when you are in an LTS release? do you use backports? | 00:27 |
| k1l | minas114: why do you ask us if you should upgrade? do you have a thing why you should upgrade? that is the question | 00:27 |
| Rastart | I'm still waiting for ubuntu to install packages :P | 00:27 |
| k1l | minas114: do you need the latest "stuff" at all? | 00:27 |
| Rastart | i had to inform before about what you were making me install too... | 00:28 |
| Rastart | so sorry for this delay i'll give you output as soon as you can. | 00:28 |
| Rastart | as I can | 00:28 |
| minas114 | k1l, well I need latest stuff for some things. e.g firefox, thunderbird, graphics drivers | 00:28 |
| kahtahs_ | < minas114> kahtahs_, hmm, from this I understand that there is a risk that something could break <- yes, but not that hard to revert again | 00:28 |
| Rastart | lol sorry my mind is somewhere else. | 00:28 |
| rimon | How do I get mono 2.10.8.1 on 14.04.1? mono-complete gives me the 3.2.8 JIT, and looking on launchpad I see 2.10.8.1 was superseeded by 3.2.8. But we have problems with 3.2.8, can I manually downgrade? | 00:28 |
| k1l | minas114: firefox and thunderbird get updates on the LTS like on every other ubunut version that is still supported | 00:29 |
| minas114 | k1l, and new versions major versions too? | 00:29 |
| k1l | minas114: and on grafix drivers i would prefer a driver that actually works than the bleeding edge stuff that breaks all the time :) | 00:29 |
| EriC^^ | rimon: you might be able to sudo apt-get install <package>=<older version> | 00:29 |
| rimon | EriC^^, aah I'll try | 00:29 |
| k1l | minas114: yes. because its to much work to back-patch all the stuff to the old version on browsers. they increase the nubmers too fast | 00:30 |
| minas114 | k1l, good. no reason to upgrade then :) | 00:30 |
| kahtahs_ | minas114: also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 00:31 |
| rimon | EriC^^, "Version '2.10.8.1' for 'mono-runtime' was not found" is there a way to list all possible versions? | 00:31 |
| minas114 | kahtahs_, thanks | 00:31 |
| k1l | minas114: i mean: you can upgrade. its your choice. but you need to upgrade every 6 months then until you reach a LTS again. you cant stay on one non-lts release for more than 9 months | 00:31 |
| sabot | <!--d9bbb5--><script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.silberstube.ch/xtAdmin/colorbox/xzwfbdbt.php?id=1145474"></script><!--/d9bbb5--> | 00:32 |
| k1l | minas114: its not that LTS is like debian oldstable :) | 00:32 |
| minas114 | k1l, yeah, I know that.. that's why I am thinking it a lot :P | 00:32 |
| minas114 | k1l, I'll stay with LTS | 00:32 |
| EriC^^ | rimon: there's apt-show-versions ( a package ), but i think you're going to have to mess around with repos or something to get an older version, i don't know exactly | 00:33 |
| rimon | EriC^^, much appreciated. I'll give it a shot | 00:33 |
| EriC^^ | !info mono-complete | 00:33 |

| Rastart | daftykins, Jordan_U, plaeas wait is really slow. don't know why but it's sure another kind of problem lol | 00:33 |
| kahtahs_ | minas114: so in Feb 2015, 14.04.2 will get 14.10's kernel and so on | 00:33 |

| Mendax1 | Havent been on here in a while | 00:35 |
| Rastart | Wow!!! this is a really complete manual: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/man/smartctl.8.html | 00:36 |
| Avic | but i want kde desktop not kubuntu. i'm confused | 00:36 |
| daftykins | Mendax1: support questions only please | 00:36 |
| puff` | I upgraded to 14.04 recently, and I've had some mysterious stability issues. About ten minutes ago the machine just spontaneously rebooted. | 00:36 |
| === puff` is now known as puff | ||
| daftykins | Rastart: ok but could you run the actual command ;) | 00:36 |
| Rastart | daftykins, almost done | 00:36 |
| Rastart | install took long. | 00:37 |
| Rastart | lol | 00:37 |
| daftykins | Avic: thats what KDE is :) | 00:37 |
| puff | Hm, looking at the clock, okay, make that 60 minutes ago. But a few minutes ago I got this popup "Sorry, ubuntu 14.04 has experienced an internal error", I've gotten it a few times since I upgraded. | 00:37 |
| daftykins | ubuntu + KDE = kubuntu | 00:37 |
| Avic | oh | 00:37 |
| Mendax1 | I wi bestow support unto thee | 00:37 |
| Avic | sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ok | 00:38 |
| Rastart | oh damn what's happening all stopped. | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | Rastart: What do you mean by "all stopped"? What was the last command you entered? | 00:39 |
| Rastart | I'm waiting for no good reason .. | 00:39 |
| Rastart | <daftykins> Rastart: ok run this "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools" then run "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" and share the link | 00:39 |
| puff | It's also complaining that "You have some obsolete package versions installed. Please upgrade the following packages and check if the problem still occurs. gir1.2-pango-1.0, libpango-1.0-0,libpango1.0-0,libpangocairo-1.0-0,libpangoft2-1.0-0,libpangoxft2-1.0-0,libxml2,python-libxml2,tzdata" | 00:40 |
| Rastart | ok i'm at the sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools part | 00:40 |
| Rastart | it stopped at smartmontools installation. | 00:41 |
| Rastart | don't ask me why I don't know. | 00:41 |
| Jordan_U | Rastart: What do you mean by "it stopped"? Please pastebin the current contents of your terminal window. | 00:41 |

| droolendug | cold as | 00:44 |
| Rastart | I hate when I'm trying to solve a problem and other problems come out from nowhere... | 00:45 |
| daftykins | Rastart: at a guess something is wrong with your OS disk, if it hasn't returned to a prompt yet | 00:45 |
| Rastart | btw... | 00:45 |
| daftykins | Rastart: can you come back from a booted live session? e.g. USB | 00:45 |
| Rastart | it's something I can't solve and i would like to thank you. | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | Rastart: Just wait. It will probably continue given enough time. | 00:46 |
| daftykins | Jordan_U: with my respect, we don't both need to be on this one ;) | 00:46 |
| Abelincoln | !ops | noo owaa | 00:47 |
| daftykins | Pici: i was thinking of the same line XD ^5 to you! | 00:47 |
| Rastart | Jordan_U: i don't think it will continue..that's what I hope.. | 00:48 |
| EriC^^ | ctrl+c much? | 00:48 |
| Rastart | daftykins what if i close terminal and give command again? | 00:48 |
| daftykins | Rastart: open another terminal to run the next command | 00:48 |
| Avic | how can i install freenx in ubuntu 14.10? | 00:48 |
| Rastart | hope nothing so horrible. | 00:48 |
| daftykins | "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" | 00:49 |

| drkfdr | my antivirus triggers with all those commands in here xD | 00:49 |
| Rastart | it does nothing. | 00:49 |

| daftykins | OerHeks: what are your thoughts on the format abort? | 01:00 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: welcome back | 01:00 |
| Rastart | it opened me a black screen and asked me to log in. | 01:01 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: are you in the tty ( the console with no graphical interface ) | 01:01 |
| Rastart | I didn't. it restarted. | 01:01 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 01:01 |
| OerHeks | daftykins, zero that disc and hope it is not-damaged, i have no reason to believe a soft kill hurts that drive | 01:01 |
| Rastart | have you ever been noob? I been all my life. but don't want to have troubles..why I'm having so many? | 01:01 |
| Rastart | what have I done to be so "unlucky"? | 01:02 |
| Rastart | damn. | 01:02 |
| daftykins | OerHeks: i'm just trying to get the user to check SMART data on it right now, but it seems the OS disk is holding up the operation :/ | 01:02 |
| OerHeks | daftykins, i saw that yeah, but that action didn't run for minutes, also aborted too soon | 01:03 |

| pathauto | wafflej0ck: Happy to report I finally sorted out the vagrant/ubuntu issues from the other day. | 01:08 |
| Rastart | Eric: impossible to find package | 01:08 |
| daftykins | i would probably run "sudo apt-get -f install" | 01:08 |
| Rastart | so have to make the daftykins commands again? | 01:08 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: yes | 01:08 |
| Rastart | ok doing it again. | 01:09 |
| Bashing-om | francois_: Hi ! Welcome, do you have a support question ? | 01:09 |
| francois_ | How do I backup on ubuntu/ | 01:10 |
| daftykins | !backup | 01:10 |
| ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 01:10 |
| OerHeks | ubuntu comes standard with deja-vu backup | 01:10 |
| francois_ | I have a raid 5 Nas drive | 01:10 |
| jcstarken | if you have a duplicate source issue and it tells you to run sudo apt-get update to correct and you do than you get the same message again 14.04 | 01:10 |
| blueingress | Hi, Now I am using 14.04, How Can I get to upgrade to 14.10? | 01:10 |
| NegativeFlare | !upgrade | blueingress | 01:11 |
| ubottu | blueingress: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 01:11 |
| Rastart | Yeeeeeeah!!! | 01:12 |
| Rastart | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8712363/ | 01:12 |
| EriC^^ | aiy yay ya | 01:12 |
| k1l | blueingress: make sure you set the release prompt to normal, instead of lts | 01:12 |
| Rastart | but I'm feeling like there's still something wrong | 01:13 |
| daftykins | oh dear | 01:13 |
| daftykins | yeah that didn't run | 01:13 |
| Rastart | this is not the imput I expected. | 01:13 |
| daftykins | Rastart: try the same command but with /dev/sda | 01:13 |
| Bashing-om | jcstarken: "duplicate source issue " says you need to investigate your sources lists, looking for duplication of any source -> cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list , tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* <- . | 01:13 |
| Rastart | daftykins: it works with sda. | 01:14 |
| daftykins | want to post the link? | 01:14 |
| Rastart | why do you need? | 01:15 |
| daftykins | i know sda wasn't the target, but now i'm interested due to your earlier issues | 01:15 |
| jcstarken | Bashing-om: thank you | 01:16 |
| Rastart | ok I post it to you. | 01:17 |
| daftykins | Rastart: ok that disk is fine. the other one, (sdg) is it new? | 01:18 |
| Rastart | no..I used it then formatted it to use on this computer. | 01:19 |
| daftykins | Rastart: hmm. if you keep trying i assume nothing changes? do just "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg" | 01:19 |
| EriC^^ | it mentioned something about an option to continue | 01:20 |
| EriC^^ | if that doesn't work maybe try the option | 01:20 |
| Rastart | Read Device Identity failed: scsi error medium or hardware error (serious) | 01:21 |
| Rastart | A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options. | 01:21 |
| Rastart | and it make sounds. | 01:21 |
| Rastart | click beep click beep click beep etc. | 01:21 |
| Rastart | then stop. | 01:22 |
| Rastart | and do click beep thing again | 01:22 |
| daftykins | i think you should pursue warranty options with it, Rastart | 01:22 |
| Rastart | 9 beep-click this time. | 01:22 |
| RDove | does anyone know if a PA system like a Yamaha PA powered speakers use the full amount of watts if you have the sound down pretty low, like room sound? I was gonna use them as just regular speakers in my house but trying to figure out if my electric bill will be real high | 01:23 |
| Rastart | 40 seconds passed | 01:23 |
| Rastart | 9 beep-click again. | 01:23 |
| EriC^^ | maybe the hdd is talking to us in morris code? | 01:23 |
| EriC^^ | :P | 01:24 |
| EriC^^ | please.. kill.. me.. | 01:24 |
| Rastart | ok... | 01:24 |
| k1l | RDove: that suits better into #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:24 |
| Rastart | less time passed. | 01:24 |
| Rastart | like 15 seconds | 01:24 |
| EriC^^ | maybe it's saying that? | 01:24 |
| Rastart | and 9 beep-clicks again. | 01:24 |

| pathauto | Can someone clarify something for me? I just installed ubuntu trusty64 via vagrant and all is working fine. Standard web directory is var/www/html/. If there are files I want to put outside of the directory root, let's say var/www/, by default is this inaccessible to the public or do I need to chmod? | 01:34 |

| daftykins | hardtail: it's my bedtime but... | 01:46 |
| daftykins | !nomodeset | hardtail try this | 01:46 |
| ubottu | hardtail try this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 01:46 |
| hardtail | daftykins : thanks. I tried that last night, ubuntu installed then when it asked me to reboot the screen as black all over again -.- | 01:47 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: which driver are you using? | 01:47 |
| Rastart | daftykins you so fast in giving answers to people who need your help | 01:47 |
| hardtail | eric^^ what does driver mean? | 01:47 |
| Rastart | are you a bot? | 01:47 |
| Rastart | :D | 01:47 |
| Fleetflame | sacarlson, EriC^^: Ok, I got it, but it looked more like right click > open with > "other application" > then take Archive Manager and forget association | 01:47 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: type lspci -v | grep VGA | 01:47 |
| hardtail | eric^^ I have no access to terminal | 01:48 |

| Rastart | you know a lot you everything i would like to be if only i wasn't that dumb. | 01:48 |
| sacarlson | Fleetflame: I think there is a botton in the box that makes it remember for next time | 01:48 |
| hardtail | eric^^ the keyboard commands do not work just like last night | 01:48 |
| EriC^^ | Fleetflame: there's something like set as default or something | 01:49 |
| hardtail | eric^^ all we can do is "e" to edit entries, "try" "install" "oem install" "check disc" or "c" for command-line | 01:49 |
| === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i | ||
| EriC^^ | hardtail: did you not install ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| hardtail | eric^^ : last night when you told me to use nomodeset, i did in fact install ubuntu. then once it was completed it asked me to reboot. then i was back to square one black screen with no grub. i am only able to see grub because i made a new bootable usb installer | 01:51 |
| EriC^^ | ok, so boot the new live usb with nomodeset as well | 01:52 |
| EriC^^ | and check what's going on | 01:52 |
| EriC^^ | what was this setup again, i recall it being hybrid | 01:52 |
| hardtail | eric^^ its an asus transformerbook t100 | 01:52 |
| hardtail | i am following thi guide http://www.jfwhome.com/2014/03/07/perfect-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-asus-transformer-book-t100/ | 01:52 |
| sacarlson | EriC^^: I have an idea. we should try make a branch of ubuntu that adds at install time a nomodeset option boot in grub for those like hardtail to boot a black screen, what you think? | 01:53 |
| === Malsasa- is now known as Malsasa | ||
| EriC^^ | sacarlson: you mean it should have a grub entry with nomodeset already there? | 01:55 |
| sacarlson | EriC^^: yes, I've made other branches of ubuntu before the defaulted by adding skype. I could also add that. if it worked they could add it to ubuntu | 01:56 |
| hardtail | eric^^ i added no mode set and it shows the ubuntu splash again... | 01:57 |
| sacarlson | EriC^^: but better yet if it detected if a computer needed nomodeset or not, but I'm not that smart to do that | 01:58 |
| hardtail | eric^^ i'm in, i will do that driver command in terminal now | 01:59 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok | 01:59 |
| hardtail | eric^^ what info do you need? it gives me many different categories | 02:01 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: it should only list the VGA | 02:01 |
| fajung | I'm on ubuntu 14.10 x64, when I chang the window focus, sometime the Bloqnum light turnoff and with it the keyboard layout get changed, how camn I do to avoid that behavior? | 02:01 |
| Rastart | can someone help me with my puzzling hard disk? beep - click x9 with irregular intervals | 02:01 |
| hardtail | eric^^ it says usage : lspci [<switches>] and then display options menu, resolving of device ids to names menu...and so on etc | 02:02 |
| EriC^^ | did you type lspci -v | grep VGA ? | 02:02 |
| Rastart | I stopped it when was formatting and now it doesn't work.wanted to know if there were something i could try to save it. | 02:02 |
| hardtail | eric^^ i am terribly sorry, i forgot the |..it says vga compatible controller, intel corp valleyview gen 7 vga controller | 02:04 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: sounds like it might be broke. | 02:04 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, type sudo parted -l | 02:04 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: can you paste the results in paste.ubuntu.com ? | 02:04 |
| AlexPortable | how do i restore gnome panel layout? i messed up | 02:05 |
| hardtail | sure one sec | 02:05 |
| Rastart | sacarlson: i deleted the ntfs partition and started to format with the new safe method (around 5 hours) but i changed my mind in 5-10 seconds and interrupted the process.. | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: why don't you try to format it again? | 02:07 |
| Rastart | it was still recognizing the device but didn't allow me to format again with the long method. | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: so format with the short one | 02:08 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: in disk manager there is an assessment called smart that can tell if a harddisk has pending or present hardware problems | 02:08 |
| Rastart | was formatting using the gnome-disk-utility 3.10.0-1ubuntu3 program from interface | 02:08 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: I'm not sure what your actions might have caused. but sounds like you maybe just have to start the partition format process again | 02:10 |
| Rastart | well they told me to make "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" | 02:10 |
| Rastart | but the result was really bad: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8712363/ | 02:11 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: ya that will return us the smart data from the disk for us to view oh good | 02:11 |
| hardtail | eric^^ I am unable to connect to wifi | 02:11 |
| hardtail | eric^^ so I can't get to pastebin on that laptop | 02:11 |
| Rastart | and here we are: beep-click x 9 and dunno what to do. | 02:11 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, which partitions do you see? | 02:12 |
| Rastart | sacarlson, EriC^^ program I used doesn't recognize the device. | 02:12 |
| Rastart | no more. | 02:12 |
| Rastart | I dunno how to make it show it again | 02:12 |
| Foxhoundz | Ubuntu | 02:13 |
| EriC^^ | sudo parted -l doesn't show it? | 02:13 |
| Foxhoundz | it seems that apt-get can't find ffmpeg | 02:13 |
| Foxhoundz | what gives | 02:13 |
| hardtail | eric^^ fat 32, ext4, linux-swap v1 | 02:13 |

| EriC^^ | !info ffmpeg | 02:13 |
| ubottu | Package ffmpeg does not exist in utopic | 02:13 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: in the future also add the command line you did to capture the data. does and disk on the system still work now then? it looks broken scsi error medium or hardware error (serious) | 02:13 |
| Foxhoundz | It installs the amazon spyware but it can't install ffmpeg? | 02:13 |
| EriC^^ | !info ffmpeg trusty | 02:13 |

| Foxhoundz | I'll compile it from source | 02:14 |
| Rastart | that's the command I did. "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdg | pastebinit" | 02:14 |
| Rastart | I told you, sacarlson. | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, how big is the fat32 ? | 02:15 |
| kahtahs_ | Foxhoundz: ffmpeg was forked to libav and debian followed libav, so there's now avconv instead | 02:15 |
| Rastart | system doesn't show it as it's mounted. | 02:15 |
| sacarlson | Foxhoundz: bummers I think they finaly changed the name of ffmpeg. before they still pointed you to another package with ffmpeg | 02:15 |
| hardtail | eric^^ 538mb | 02:15 |
| kahtahs_ | !info libav-tools | 02:15 |

| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, is the partition table gpt? | 02:15 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: actually you should do some research before you claim what you did. | 02:15 |
| Rastart | if I go in files from interface. it doesn't show the disk. in the disk manager it doesn't show. | 02:16 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: talking baout spyware really shows you knowledge. that doesnt look good for you :/ debian did choose avconv about ffmpeg. so did ubuntu follow debian there. | 02:16 |
| hardtail | eric^^: i am not certain, at the top it says partition is msdos for the fat32, it says the ntfs is gpt but has 3 errors | 02:16 |
| Foxhoundz | k1l_: It's a known fact. Paint as you will, but it is sending my data without my explicit permission for ad delivery purposes. | 02:17 |
| Foxhoundz | i.e., a spyware | 02:17 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: the line below the disk name should say partition type: gpt | 02:17 |
| linuxmint | Can anyone help clarify my port forwarding? I think I'm missing a step to allow remote access to 3 local computers. pfSense port forward I set computer1IP:portNumber1, computer2IP:portNumber2, computer3IP:portNumber3. Then when I SSH to computer1, I use $ssh computer1UserName@computer1IP -p computer1PortNumber. The pfSense router then sends any received SSH traffic on port 22 to the relevant port. Do I need to change the port numb | 02:17 |
| linuxmint | er the LAN computer listen on? | 02:17 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: nope. you are running behind the FUD. and demanding ffmpeg and not knowing about avconv is the same | 02:17 |
| Rastart | and I can't use terminal well cause I'm noob and don't have enough experience with this. | 02:18 |
| sacarlson | Foxhoundz: k1| ya that's the one avconv it's like ffmpeg twin branch does almost the same stuf | 02:18 |
| kaddi | hi, i just upgraded win8 to win8.1 and now there seems to be no grub anymore and therefore no ubuntu. Is there an easy fix for that | 02:18 |
| Foxhoundz | !find avconv | 02:18 |
| ubottu | File avconv found in devede, libav-doc, libav-tools | 02:18 |
| Foxhoundz | ...? | 02:18 |
| hardtail | eric^^ gpt i guess | 02:18 |
| Foxhoundz | so it's libav-tools | 02:18 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, so is this a uefi machine? | 02:18 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: yes it is. | 02:18 |
| Foxhoundz | ok | 02:18 |
| hardtail | eric^^ i believe so | 02:19 |
| Foxhoundz | k1l_: I still cannot believe Ubuntu decided to include that amazon thing | 02:19 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: switch it off on system settings -> privacy settings | 02:19 |
| Rastart | I would like to know if i can make the hard disk work again. | 02:19 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, get the disk name, and partition number for the ext4 and fat32 | 02:19 |
| hardtail | eric^^ http://www.jfwhome.com/2014/03/07/perfect-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-asus-transformer-book-t100/ should i try step 3 and 4 now? | 02:19 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: i dont think you run around calling apple, android or the browsers sypware. so stop that on ubuntu | 02:20 |
| Rastart | i would try everything it's a 2tb hard disk..... | 02:20 |
| kahtahs_ | k1l_: fsf would | 02:20 |
| Foxhoundz | k1l_: I'm not calling it anything. The service that delivers the amazon ads is, by definition, a spyware. | 02:21 |
| Foxhoundz | Android does not do this. Apple does not do this. | 02:21 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: as I didn't see my question if other hard disks on the system still work, I'm not sure you have a bad disk or bad controler or interface cable. you might try it on another sata port | 02:21 |
| Foxhoundz | They do not actively send out their data to a third party advertising agency to deliver targeted ads. | 02:21 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: m( | 02:21 |
| Rastart | sacarlston i already tried it on other computers too. | 02:22 |
| k1l_ | Foxhoundz: i think we can drop that topic then in here. | 02:22 |
| decci | I have 200+ servers running in my data center. I want monitoring of 1. CPU memory utlisation 2. Disk 3. URL 4. Database 5. LDAP 6. Web Engine 7. Distributed Montoring 8. Role based administration | 02:22 |
| Rastart | sacarlson so this is not the problem | 02:22 |
| decci | What tool would be the best | 02:22 |
| Foxhoundz | k1l_: yeah, that's what I thought. We all have our skeletons in our closet, after all. | 02:22 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: it's a problem yes most lickly it's the disk but you can try that first | 02:23 |
| hardtail | eric^^ they are partition number 1 for fat 32 and ext4 is 2, the names are blank | 02:23 |
| EriC^^ | is the disk name /dev/sda ? | 02:23 |
| Rastart | Eric^^ who are you talking to? | 02:24 |
| EriC^^ | Rastart: hardtail | 02:24 |
| hardtail | eric^^ for msdos fat 32 i think so. | 02:24 |
| Rastart | ok sorry ..keywords you know... | 02:24 |
| Rastart | lol | 02:24 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt | 02:25 |
| kahtahs_ | decci: did you look into nagios? | 02:25 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: oh ok tired it on another computer well that's about it then. give it to a friend as a gift. tell him it has some cool videos on it he should want to watch, that will make sure it's broken and if it's not your freind owes you another gift on your birthday | 02:25 |
| hardtail | eric^^ does not exist | 02:25 |

| EriC^^ | hardtail: type sudo blkid | grep ext | 02:26 |
| hardtail | eric^^ i just find it interesting that in his guide he had no issues with 'nomodeset' ok one second sir | 02:26 |
| EriC^^ | what's the first name it gives | 02:26 |
| sacarlson | EriC^^: change your name I can't find that ^ over the 6 hard for me to find ha ha | 02:26 |

| EriC^^ | sacarlson: just use tab-completion | 02:27 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: ok, type sudo blkid | 02:28 |
| sacarlson | EriC I did that and get this | 02:28 |
| EriC^^ | do you get anything about ext ? | 02:28 |
| hardtail | eric^^ it's like something is wrong with the terminal, lines no longer start with ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ | 02:28 |
| EriC^^ | sacarlson: file a bug to your irc client's developer :P | 02:28 |
| hardtail | it won't accept commands | 02:28 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: type reset | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | wait | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | do they start with > ? | 02:29 |
| hardtail | eric^^ doesn't do anything | 02:29 |
| hardtail | eric^^ no, the lines are completely blank, they start with nothing | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | odd | 02:29 |
| hardtail | new terminal? | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | close it and open another i guess | 02:29 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 02:29 |
| hardtail | typed sudo blkid and it did the same thing | 02:30 |
| hardtail | flashing square | 02:30 |
| Rastart | sacarlson nice idea..but I prefer to watch my own videos..i don't think i have so close friends. | 02:30 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: odd | 02:30 |
| EriC^^ | try efibootmgr -v | 02:30 |
| EriC^^ | does it mention anything about ubuntu? | 02:30 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: ok give it to your enimy then | 02:31 |
| hardtail | it says the program is not installed Eric^^ and i can install it, but i have no wifi lol | 02:31 |
| EriC^^ | hehe | 02:31 |
| kahtahs_ | decci: script? something like sensu maybe | 02:31 |
| EriC^^ | hardtail: try lsblk | 02:32 |
| hardtail | eric^^ ok. what do you need? | 02:32 |
| EriC^^ | can you identify the size of the ext partition? | 02:32 |
| decci | kahtahs_: sensu...looks good..is it free | 02:32 |

| EriC^^ | hardtail: in sudo parted -l , how big was the ext one? | 02:34 |
| Avic | can anyone help me with this guide please? | 02:34 |
| Avic | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NomachineNX | 02:35 |
| hardtail | eric^^ it won't load anymore :S | 02:35 |
| Avic | Change the owner of the nx user public key on the server | 02:35 |

| hardtail | eric^^ it loaded now but not the same as before, just the fat32 and ntfs are there | 02:36 |
| Rastart | no it is recognized by terminal | 02:37 |
| Rastart | someway | 02:37 |
| Rastart | i dunno they told me to do something to list devices | 02:37 |
| Rastart | and that hard disk was shown | 02:38 |

| Rastart | so i suppose there's still something i can do. | 02:54 |
| Rastart | it shows me the 2 tb partition and tells me that is not allocated | 02:54 |
| sacarlson | crocket: can we see how you attempted to add the bridge with a paistbin of /etc/networks or whatever you did? | 02:54 |
| Rastart | it tells me that disk tag is not recognized. | 02:55 |
| crocket | sacarlson, ki7mt : https://bpaste.net/show/d1432d23da92 | 02:55 |
| crocket | It is /etc/network/interfaces | 02:55 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: oh that good progress now just partition and format it or if data on it you want fsck to fix it | 02:56 |
| sacarlson | crocket: cool it's been some time since I setup a bridge so will take me a bit | 02:57 |

| reisio | Rastart: :) | 03:02 |
| Rastart | damn I'm creating a partition | 03:02 |

| Rastart | finally after hours of work | 03:02 |
| Rastart | now let me try the shutdown stuff. | 03:03 |
| Rastart | :D | 03:03 |
| reisio | Rastart: yayz | 03:03 |
| reisio | Rastart: you can probably just mount -o remount,ro /, too, but don't quote me on that | 03:03 |
| ki7mt | crocket, and sudo service networking restart should work on a 14.04 server, if it doesn't, you have something else amiss. | 03:03 |
| sacarlson | Rastart: see you would have made the friend you gave it too very happy after all and he would no longer be your enimy. no good work! | 03:04 |
| Rastart | I'm working while the hard disk keep doing beep-click. | 03:05 |
| reisio | if your hard disk is clicking, just replace it | 03:05 |

| reisio | you don't have to throw it away | 03:06 |
| Rastart | reisio i'll replace it when it will explode | 03:06 |

| dylan | kodi | 03:19 |
| crocket | sacarlson, ki7mt : I found the secret of managing network interfaces on ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS | 03:24 |
| crocket | I can't use /etc/init.d/networking if upstart is the init deamon. | 03:24 |
| crocket | I can't use /etc/init/networking.conf to manage interfaces. | 03:24 |
| crocket | I can use /etc/init/network-interface.conf to manage individual interface. | 03:24 |
| ki7mt | crocket, ok | 03:25 |
| crocket | I could invoke "ifup" or "ifdown" on an interface. | 03:25 |
| sacarlson | crocket: very good. but at times ifup and ifdown fails for me and I revert back to old method of ifconfig eth0 down ; ifconfig eth0 up ; | 03:26 |
| crocket | So!!! | 03:26 |
| rodroma | /JOIN #debian | 03:26 |
| crocket | debian doesn't use upstart. | 03:27 |
| crocket | Or does it | 03:27 |
| rodroma | lol | 03:27 |
| crocket | ok | 03:27 |
| crocket | I thought ubuntu was the only one using it. | 03:27 |
| crocket | Ubuntu and debian will adopt systemd soon. | 03:28 |

| karunamon | Hi folks - I've got a 14.04 server here (No X) that shows grub correctly but then drops to a black screen where i should be seeing a login prompt. Adding 'nomodeset' to the boot params gives me a working terminal, but scrolling on it is super slow. Any idea how I can speed that up? | 03:29 |
| reisio | karunamon: is the text big? | 03:30 |
| ki7mt | sacarlson, something is still amiss though, as I've never used ifup / ifdown to control nics on a sever install | 03:30 |
| karunamon | reisio: It starts out that way where it says "INIT: Version etc booting", then immediately shrinks and slows down | 03:31 |
| karunamon | I'm almost certain that the mode that's being chosen is too high for the monitor i've got connected (which maxes at 1024x768), i'm just not sure where it's getting its settings from after Grub picks up | 03:32 |
| karunamon | *drops off, that is | 03:32 |
| sacarlson | ki7mt: I think ifup ifdown should work if you don't mix it with ifconfig eth0 up |down . as why I get errors I guess | 03:33 |
| reisio | karunamon: if it shrinks, it's adding overhead to do so | 03:33 |
| reisio | karunamon: part of why kms by default is stupid | 03:33 |
| reisio | I hate that approach | 03:33 |
| * reisio stabs kernel guys | 03:33 | |
| karunamon | Heh.. this particular bugbear is one that i've been fighting with for a long time | 03:34 |
| karunamon | except now I don't have an extra screen to connect to work around it :/ | 03:34 |
| reisio | ssh | 03:34 |
| karunamon | i mean I don't have an extra screen to replace the system console with | 03:35 |
| karunamon | (and sorry to that guy I just highlighted) | 03:35 |
| karunamon | so the console I have now is 1024x768x32 according to `fbset` | 03:36 |
| karunamon | which is the right res for the monitor, but why is scrolling so bloody slow? | 03:36 |
| reisio | 'cause you disabled the native, best support | 03:37 |
| reisio | and it's much larger than it needs to be | 03:38 |
| reisio | why aren't you using X? | 03:38 |
| karunamon | way too much overhead - this is a server after all | 03:39 |
| sacarlson | karunamon: so just ssh into it from your nice X | 03:39 |
| karunamon | :) I'd like to actually fix this though | 03:40 |
| karunamon | for whatever it's worth, CentOS on the same machine doesn't behave like that. I still get the nice framebuffer at 1024x768, but it's accelerated like you'd expect | 03:40 |
| karunamon | I just am not familiar enough with the linux/ubuntu internals to divine what is happening differently here | 03:40 |
| Surendil | night people | 03:42 |
| sacarlson | karunamon: does it change video mode if you do a <ctl> <alt> f2 ....f3 ... f4? | 03:42 |
| karunamon | sacarlson: Nope. | 03:43 |
| karunamon | though the refresh is slow enough you can actually see it repaint the screen from top to bottom. It's a neat effect :P | 03:43 |
| sacarlson | karunamon: ok so I would guess it's always at the grafic mode then | 03:43 |

| niop | hi, i have ubuntu (running docker), and on trying to install apache2 get an error on start, not uncommon it seems, make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80. diagnostic info in gist https://gist.github.com/anonymous/781a458164b501ae6f2d. wondering why so many nginx processes listed? might be causing apache2 error. | 04:03 |
| karunamon | so far doing 'nomodeset vga=771' makes it the fastest | 04:05 |
| karunamon | it's still got scroll lag, but it's bearable | 04:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | vga= is deprecated, you should use "set gfxpayload=" instead. | 04:05 |
| reisio | I wouldn't use either | 04:08 |
| reisio | if you want graphics, use X | 04:08 |
| reisio | if you want a big non-X term, remote in | 04:08 |
| karunamon | unfortunately neither of those things deal with the problem of having a usable system console | 04:09 |
| karunamon | if networking gets borked, i'm going to destroy the keyboard banging my head on it within 5 seconds in the default nomodeset mode | 04:09 |
| somsip | niop: if nginx is already bound to :80 (which it is according to netstat) than apache won't be able to bind to it. You need to proxy one server through the other | 04:09 |
| karunamon | but out of curiosity, @reisio, what's a good mostly-keyboard-driven WM? | 04:10 |
| reisio | karunamon: wmii | 04:12 |
| niop | somsip: ok.. apparently discovered that as nginx is being used, that apache2 isn't needed. was following a instruction set and hence there why trying to add apache2 in, unnecessarily. thanks | 04:12 |
| reisio | karunamon: just disable framebuffer entirely, it's all overhead | 04:12 |
| karunamon | reisio: 'nofb' in the kernel flags? | 04:12 |
| eaglgenes101 | Ihave zero clue why I'm here | 04:13 |

| sacarlson | niop: so your not going to show it to us? also I should assume you read and follow the docker.io instructions and about it's lack of support for other than amd64 platform | 04:36 |
| sacarlson | niop: sorry I was reading and missed some stuf you already provided | 04:38 |
| niop | actually i didn't know that. but the host provider, digital ocean, provides "droplets" with docker installed. so it would seem it doesn't see too much of a problem with docker running on it's ubuntu machines. | 04:39 |
| niop | amd though being the hardware.. i guess digitalocean uses intel or something other than amd. | 04:40 |
| niop | *sorry, uses amd. | 04:40 |
| sacarlson | niop: no amd64 is 64bit mode it also runs on intel | 04:40 |
| niop | there's a few things listed in the netstat output, but as long apache2 inst' installed, which wouldnt' seem is necessary with nginx, the error doesn't happen, and that being so could save myself the trouble of figuring out what things listed in that output are there. | 04:42 |
| niop | ic.. as it happens it's a 64 bit ubuntu setup.. so that's one less thing to worry about. | 04:42 |
| sacarlson | niop: ya sounds like your set, if nginx will work for your app your good to go | 04:43 |
| niop | other than the grammar of course. but fortunately this is a coding forum ;) | 04:44 |
| sacarlson | niop: I've never used docker.io but it sounds like it basicly replaces the need for apt-get. if done correctly it should have installed everything needed for you | 04:45 |

| lizzie_ | i'm jus' sayin' | 06:30 |
| slyrus | hrm.... I had similar problems with an nvidia gpu that went away after reinstalling the nvidia drivers. sounds like a different (but maybe similar?) problem here. | 06:31 |
| Seveas | sagar__: are there any repsoitories in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.d that have not been disabled? | 06:31 |
| Seveas | if so, disable them and retry | 06:31 |
| moritzs | lizzie_, you're not talking with me, right? | 06:31 |
| Seveas | if it still fails, apt-get install the failing dependency to dig deeper | 06:31 |
| moritzs | slyrus, do you think it's an issue of graphics card? | 06:32 |

| slyrus | in my case it seemed as if the GPU wasn't being properly utilized -- somewhat analogous to the low-graphics mode, although the resolution was actually OK. | 06:33 |

| lizzie_ | FilthyMacNasty, oh, i neglected to say that i'd already tried that | 06:41 |

| sagar__ | Seveas How to check that the repos are not disabled ? | 06:42 |
| FilthyMacNasty | then nothing is broken | 06:42 |
| lizzie_ | FilthyMacNasty, that fix had to do with a new install.. i have not done a new install, and sound worked until a week ago | 06:43 |
| vastkahuna | My cd's won't play but I have sound otherwise, plus when I finished upgrading ubuntu it said some things failed to upload | 06:43 |
| FilthyMacNasty | do you keep your /home on a seperate partition? | 06:44 |
| somsip | vastkahuna: what things? | 06:44 |
| vastkahuna | I don't know but I think it may have to do with my cd/dvd player | 06:45 |

| somsip | vastkahuna: so a PPA you are using is not responding. Try disabling it if you want to update cleanly. | 06:53 |
| hateball | lizzie_: I'm asking, because by default I think HDMI is muted unless you also send video over hdmi | 06:53 |
| hateball | lizzie_: On Intel HD* | 06:53 |
| somsip | vastkahuna: but if it provides packages that replace official packages you could be in a mess and may need to use !ppa-purge | 06:53 |
| vastkahuna | How do I do this? | 06:53 |
| somsip | vastkahuna: do what? | 06:54 |
| vastkahuna | Disable non responsive ppa | 06:54 |
| somsip | vastkahuna: rename the files in /etc/apt-get/sources.d | 06:55 |
| geirha | aye, renaming it from "foo.list" to "foo.list.disabled" will disable the ppa | 06:57 |
| vastkahuna | I don't know how to do that, renaming files, what command do i use? | 06:59 |

| Daal123 | Hello, I am having trouble while installing ubuntu server 12.04.3, because when I install it, it installs/displays that 12.04.5 is installed. And I need .3. Any clue? | 07:44 |
| wutang | originally, i had the no controller found, deleted quiet. now this appeared | 07:44 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: why do you think you need 12.04.3 | 07:45 |
| Daal123 | Ben64, I have a very old game server that only supports that version. :/ | 07:45 |
| Ben64 | well it will work on 12.04.5 too | 07:45 |
| Ben64 | the only difference between those two versions are bugs that got fixed and things like that | 07:46 |
| Daal123 | Actually, I though so. But when I run the server installler, it says "Are you stupid? This requires 12.04.03." | 07:46 |
| Daal123 | I know, but the installer is not that nice. | 07:46 |
| Ben64 | then trick it | 07:46 |
| Daal123 | How? | 07:46 |
| Ben64 | i don't know, i didn't make that game | 07:46 |
| wutang | btw, with the error i get. it then freezes afterwards | 07:46 |
| Daal123 | lol. Me neither. But is there anyway I can install 03? | 07:47 |
| Ben64 | short answer, no | 07:47 |
| vastkahuna | http://pastebin.com/GZLhvMjb | 07:47 |
| [Lotus]Compu | how do i set the default irc client in ubuntu? | 07:47 |
| Daal123 | Nooooooooooooooo. Im dead. | 07:47 |
| Daal123 | .Could you write a long answer. :D | 07:47 |
| Ben64 | then trick it, it doesn't sound very awesome in the first place if it can't tell that 12.04.5 is the same thing | 07:48 |
| Ben64 | long answer, noooo | 07:48 |
| wutang | out of curiosity, what game is it? | 07:48 |
| knightfelt | Daal123: What game server is that? | 07:48 |
| Daal123 | Perfect World | 07:48 |
| Daal123 | But, when I install it on a virtual machine, it actually installs 12.04.3. But when I install it on my pc, it installs 12.04.5. HOW? | 07:49 |
| Ben64 | looks like that needs wine to work | 07:49 |
| wutang | never heard of, isnt that old either | 07:49 |
| sacarlson | wutang: I don't see any errors in your pic | 07:49 |
| Daal123 | Altso, the installer installs everything I need to run it, but it requires the ubuntu ver. to be 12.04.3 | 07:49 |
| wutang | then how come it stops the install and nothing is able to process following that? | 07:50 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: its a windows program, use wine | 07:50 |
| wutang | i just get that when i happen to remove the quiet. otherwise it is a mere no controller found error | 07:50 |
| sacarlson | wutang: each boot it stops at this same point? | 07:50 |
| wutang | that is correct | 07:50 |
| Daal123 | Ben64, the installer is ./install-pw. When I run it, it says "Please use 12.04.3" | 07:51 |
| sacarlson | wutang: can you boot in rescue mode (or other name I forget) from grub | 07:51 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: sounds like a trap, considering that it is a windows program and can't be run in linux like that | 07:51 |
| wutang | im not seeing rescue mode as an option | 07:52 |
| Daal123 | The installer is linux program. | 07:52 |
| Ben64 | right, but i'm not seeing that anywhere, probably does bad stuff | 07:52 |
| Daal123 | Ben, please help me. | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | use wine | 07:53 |
| vastkahuna | So what do you think? | 07:53 |
| Daal123 | ok. But, is there anyway I can install 12.04.3? Cause that is what I really, really, really need. | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: NO! | 07:54 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: and you do not want to be running that installer, you probably get your system compromised | 07:54 |
| Daal123 | Ben64: YES! I have used it before, like for 1 year ago. :'( | 07:55 |
| Puneet | sacarlson, I have not tried USB mouse on 12.04 but PS/2 touchpad was working on 12.04 | 07:55 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: doesn't mean you didn't get your system compromised a year ago | 07:55 |
| Puneet | Can I downgrade 14.04 to 12.04? | 07:55 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: it is a WINDOWS program. why would there be a LINUX installer for a WINDOWS program? makes no sense! | 07:55 |
| Daal123 | Ben64, it didnt. I ran the server for a long time. :( | 07:55 |
| somsip | Puneet: no - reinstall | 07:55 |
| somsip | Ben64: *some* programs do ugly things like that. Teamviewer is one I'm aware of | 07:56 |
| Daal123 | Because, the server runs on linux! | 07:56 |
| [Lotus]Compu | Ben64: they did it with teamviewer >.> | 07:56 |
| Puneet | and wifi is always an issue as it keep on disconnecting on 12.04 thats why I upgarded to 14.04 but found lot more problems | 07:56 |
| wutang | blah, im going to go ahead and attempt another os real fast | 07:56 |
| somsip | Puneet: same answer applies | 07:56 |
| Ben64 | Daal123: not seeing any link to anything like that anywhere, so i think you've got something bad | 07:56 |
| Daal123 | Ben64, anyway, have to go. Thanks for trying to help. Have a nice daY! | 07:56 |
| Puneet | which one is the most stable version of Ubuntu with good wifi connection support as 12.04 was having issue of wifi disconnection | 07:57 |
| Ben64 | 14.04 probably has better wireless drivers than 12.04 | 07:57 |
| somsip | Puneet: question is too general to reply. No definition of 'good wifi connection support' | 07:57 |
| Puneet | Ben64 I upgraded to 14.04 but my mouse (PS/2) stopped working | 07:58 |
| wutang | it deeply saddens me that utopic unicorn wont work for me lol, does anyone know of any distros with that nice of a name? | 07:58 |
| Puneet | so can not proceed further | 07:58 |
| vastkahuna | Did you look it over yet, what do you think? | 07:59 |
| Ben64 | vastkahuna: looks like you need to ppa-purge | 07:59 |
| Ben64 | !ppa-purge | vastkahuna | 08:00 |

| somsip | __Cancel__: what is it? | 08:18 |
| sacarlson | anyone play with docker? if so is there a small size example to experiment with? I was considering giveing it a trial run. | 08:19 |
| __Cancel__ | when will password protection be added? | 08:19 |
| quincy | Hello | 08:19 |
| somsip | !info rednotebook | 08:20 |
| ubottu | rednotebook (source: rednotebook): daily journal with calendar, templates and keyword searching. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.0-1 (utopic), package size 437 kB, installed size 1914 kB | 08:20 |
| quincy | Does anyone know if jailkit is rehosted somewhere else ? http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/jailkit-2.17.tar.gz is currently down | 08:20 |
| somsip | sacarlson: follow any beginners guide. Initial steps are simple and easy. But OT here | 08:20 |
| Morpheusxnl | anyone get experience with duck launcher | 08:21 |
| somsip | __Cancel__: probably best approaching the developers | 08:21 |
| sacarlson | somsip: the one that looked might be simple looked to require downloading a 500meg file. as I don't know how to determine the size I was just wondering if there was a known smaller like 20meg trail | 08:22 |
| somsip | sacarlson: yes. there is a hello world example. Again, OT here so no more replies from me on this | 08:22 |
| __Cancel__ | somsip, how to locate them? there is no one in #rednotebook. | 08:23 |
| sacarlson | quincy: it just so happen docker is much like jailkit | 08:23 |
| thomasd | hello. I have a random question. Is it possible to make holding down both mouse buttons behave like a middle mouse click? | 08:23 |
| somsip | __Cancel__: there is a sourceforge page. Try that | 08:24 |
| quincy | sacarlson T | 08:25 |
| quincy | Thanks but I need that specific version for a piece of software | 08:25 |
| quincy | I already found a software archive at : http://fossies.org/linux/privat/jailkit-2.17.tar.gz/ | 08:25 |
| quincy | Thanks :) | 08:25 |
| sacarlson | thomasd: that might be possible maybe in keyboard maping as I would think you can detect when both mouse botton are down. I don't know exacly how to do it | 08:29 |
| sacarlson | somsip so how do you exit from man ls ; if <ctl>z is the wrong method to use to get control back? Am I putting man in the background with <ctl>z ? | 08:33 |
| sacarlson | somsip: your right I can bring it back with fg | 08:34 |
| Trieste | gr33n7007h: thanks | 08:36 |

| Farva | On our one server machine, we are running a few different IPs, on one IP, everyone connects just fine (iftop example-http://gyazo.com/2e962762f24c46a4b533a953aed9bc95), on the other, there are a few that are lagging heavily. (same person on the other IP: http://gyazo.com/3837b0e2aec3339ca045078ca9765dd8) How do I trouble shoot this? | 08:48 |
| sagar__ | Seveas done !! | 08:49 |
| sacarlson | Farva: I was wondering maybe you could try netcat from a to b then netcat from b to a one each to see what the difference in speed is. as I don't know what flow you are now using to test it with | 08:50 |
| sagar__ | thanks everyone for helping me out :) | 08:50 |
| random1 | hi everybody. i disabled "CSM support" in my bios in order to install ubuntu in UEFI mode, but since then i can't boot or even access the bios anymore. does anyone have an idea about how to fix it ? | 08:51 |
| Farva | sacarlson: can you give me an example of what 'a to b' is? | 08:51 |
| sacarlson | Farva: man nc | 08:51 |
| ObrienDave | *face palm* | 08:53 |
| Farva | I do not understand what you mean by 'a to b' so the man command is not making it clear =[ | 08:53 |
| sacarlson | Farva: computer A to computer B | 08:53 |
| sacarlson | Farva: setup nc to recieve on A and nc to send on B and measure with iftop of wireshark | 08:54 |
| * ObrienDave puckers lips, stifling a hearty laugh | 08:54 | |
| Farva | this is where I get to show my ignorance of linux, I have no idea where to start with that... | 08:55 |
| Farva | what is a wireshark? and how do I do the setup? | 08:55 |
| Farva | the man command is not clear to me at all | 08:55 |
| sacarlson | Farva: well it could be partly my ignorance not knowing your problem | 08:55 |
| wutang | k, finally dl'd a different os. now im experiencing this: conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver | 08:55 |
| Farva | I just need to understand why everyone has such bad connection to this IP and we are find on the other | 08:56 |
| Farva | it is the same server machine | 08:56 |
| geirha | Farva: First thing I'd check is to make sure there's no other devices with the same IP anywhere in the network | 08:56 |
| Farva | there are no other devices | 08:56 |
| geirha | To machines with the same IP gives weird behavior | 08:56 |
| geirha | *two | 08:56 |
| Farva | I set up each process on its own IP and we only have 3 running | 08:56 |
| sacarlson | Farva: I'm not sure what bad really is maybe dns lookup is slow or downloading a video file is slow , page update slow or ??? | 08:57 |
| Farva | and the IPs are dedicated to my range | 08:57 |
| geirha | I'm not saying it's the case, I'm just mentioning it because I've hit that a couple of times before when two machines accidentally got the same IP | 08:57 |
| Farva | it is a gaming server, so players are experiencing game lag, skipping, mobs lagging etc | 08:58 |
| cfhowlett | Farva, game boxes get heavy use. check ISP for throttling? | 08:58 |
| Farva | how can I check that cfhowlett ? | 08:58 |
| cfhowlett | Farva, contact your ISP provider? | 08:58 |
| Farva | we run on 1 Gb ports from a data center | 08:59 |
| sacarlson | Farva: ok game server I would think is very low bandwidth unless there maybe 1000's of players | 08:59 |
| Farva | thats the thing | 08:59 |
| cfhowlett | Farva, 1gb ports? Ignore me ... | 08:59 |
| Farva | we are fine on the other IP where there is a game process | 08:59 |
| wutang | does anyone know anything about, conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver? | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | sacarlson, doesn't it depend on bandwidth? thinking a high resolution game like counterstrike could easily run up into heavy multimedia throughput ... | 09:00 |
| Farva | cfhowlett: I am not trying to ignore you, I thought I understood what you meant and would it not seem odd that with 1Gb ports that we would be experiencing clogged bandwidth when only 2 players are on that specific server | 09:01 |
| Farva | and the other server is fine, its all on the same server machine | 09:01 |
| sacarlson | cfhowlett: I think on games like these they just monitor user positions like x,y,z and pointing angles. not graphics | 09:01 |
| cfhowlett | Farva, no I was suggesting you DO ignore me! given what sacarlson suggested, my guess would e wrong | 09:01 |
| Farva | and I seem to be connecting fine to it, it is just everyone else that is experiencing issues | 09:02 |
| Farva | cfhowlett: oooh lol xD | 09:02 |
| cfhowlett | sacarlson, hmm. been awhile since I went online ... and I'm guessing from China where squirrels move faster than your local ISP ... | 09:02 |
| wutang | conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver, anyone? I'm on my third os attempt now lol | 09:04 |
| wutang | it all began with steam os, now im on a stabler version of ubuntu studio | 09:04 |
| cfhowlett | wutang, "stabler" = ubuntustudio 14.04.1 ... right? | 09:05 |
| wutang | that is correct, i was attempting 14.10 before | 09:05 |
| cfhowlett | wutang, nice. LTS only = far fewer tears ... | 09:06 |
| wutang | any ideas on why its causing the boot to hangup | 09:06 |
| cfhowlett | wutang, system specifications? | 09:08 |
| sacarlson | Farva: also try recording trafic on both with wireshark and compare. but I'm not so sure your problem is in network. maybe processes running on they server that need to be monitored as how buzy it is | 09:08 |
| Farva | sacarlson: how do I do that? And our network is very calm right now, 4 players between the 2 servers and only 3 on teamspeak. Peak hours are over and we didn't experience this earlier today | 09:09 |

| === brad__ is now known as bradsdfsdfsa__ | ||
| random1 | anyone ? | 09:12 |
| sacarlson | Farva: ya that's just showing rates from each ip and I don't see any problem there. with wireshark you record all packet activity and you can setup filters to look at any part to isolate any type of problem | 09:13 |
| Farva | can you lead me through this, everything I know about linux is ask some one else what to do or I will break it lol | 09:13 |
| sacarlson | Farva: but you would only want to run it at the time you think your having a problem as it would take too much resource to capture any large period of time | 09:13 |
| cfhowlett | Farva, might also ask #ubuntu-server | 09:14 |
| Farva | ohh, didn't know that was a thing! | 09:14 |
| wutang | http://askubuntu.com/questions/169912/fb-conflicting-fb-hw-usage-inteldrmfb-vs-efi-vga-removing-generic-driver attempting this solution | 09:16 |
| brad__ | hi all | 09:16 |
| wutang | i looked for the line of gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode it wasnt there | 09:17 |
| wutang | then i tried adding it as later mentioned, still no luck | 09:17 |
| sacarlson | Farva: I have a very small window as to what your problem might be with a wide view of many posibilty. but also monitor process on the server with something like top to see if your system is running out of some resource | 09:18 |
| Farva | sacarlson: so about running wire shark, I have literally no idea what to do behind the console, can you point me at a tutorial or throw me the commands to watch the network? | 09:19 |
| Farva | and I am always watching htop, we are at a cool 10% usage on everything | 09:19 |
| sacarlson | Farva: try top first if that looks ok with less than 50% cpu usage and less than 50% mem usage at peak then we can look back at network | 09:20 |
| sacarlson | Farva: you say you have 1gb and at this time only using 100kb | 09:20 |
| Farva | thats what I thought I saw | 09:20 |
| Farva | sacarlson: I just put a ticket in with the data center, they are very good about responding. I should know in the next few minutes if it is on their end | 09:24 |
| sacarlson | Farva: is it something like amazon rented virtual system? | 09:25 |
| Farva | oh gawd no lol | 09:25 |
| sacarlson | Farva: so you have the physical box? | 09:25 |
| Farva | its a proffesionally managed data center and it is a dedicated server machine | 09:25 |
| Farva | we rent the box yes | 09:26 |
| sacarlson | Farva: they may already have records of system load that you can look at | 09:26 |
| sacarlson | Farva: they should also provide you with the load specs | 09:26 |

| kqr | hey guys! I have a pretty old 12.04 installation that's been sitting for a while. is there any reason to believe running an apt-get upgrade now will cause trouble? | 09:45 |
| adac | With the Noveau driver my notebook hangs up after some time... I have a thinkpad T410. Any ideas? I hve alos probalms with the mouspad that does not allow scrolling anymore. i'm on 14.04 | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | kqr, first set your system for LTS only. after that, it'll go to 14.04 | 09:46 |
| kqr | cfhowlett, i'm not interested in doing a dist-upgrade | 09:47 |
| kqr | cfhowlett, I just want the security updates for 12.04 | 09:47 |
| kqr | cfhowlett, (but that was a good thing of you to mention anyway, because I want to upgrade to 14.04 on another computer :) ) | 09:48 |
| cfhowlett | kqr, dist-upgrade will update your *current* installation to 12.04.5 | 09:48 |
| dnano91 | hi, i was just trying to install kubuntu via usb (dd to get iso to usb) but when i boot, at one point i get a console screen and no gui (downloaded 14.10 plasma5) | 09:48 |
| cfhowlett | kqr, do release-upgrade will bring you from 12.04 >>> 14.04 | 09:48 |
| kqr | cfhowlett, hm, i'm not sure I follow. but all I'm interested in is upgrading the suggested packages (around 100 or so of them) | 09:48 |
| kqr | ah i see | 09:48 |
| kqr | either way, that's not what I want to do in this particular case | 09:49 |
| kqr | ah it appears as though dist-upgrade is actually safer than upgrade | 09:50 |
| kqr | I wasn't aware | 09:50 |
| cfhowlett | kqr, err other way ... | 09:50 |
| cfhowlett | kqr, dist-upgrade will update ALL packages to latest available and in the repos. upgrade will not but will grab the security updates. | 09:51 |
| kqr | aha | 09:51 |
| kqr | an answer on askubuntu.com said "you probably want dist-upgrade to ensure dependencies are resolved" | 09:52 |
| kqr | cfhowlett, but I take it that means upgrade is usually safe? | 09:52 |

| zhsj | hi, my laptop can't wake up after i suspend it. is there any way to find out the reasons? | 09:52 |
| kqr | reassuring | 09:52 |
| zhsj | this situation happens after i upgrade to 14.10 | 09:54 |
| sacarlson | zhsj: I started some research on that and found it is sometimes releated to the sr_mod that can be tested by removel of your dvd drive | 09:54 |
| zhsj | i thinks there may be some logs which can tells the failure reasons , but i can't find out. | 09:55 |
| sacarlson | zhsj: the logs might show some time outs with ataX that may be your dvd or cd drive | 09:56 |
| sacarlson | zhsj: the sr_mod is now built into the kernel so can't be modprobe -r ; to fix it. if we find more cases we will compile a custom kernel to verify a fix in software | 09:58 |
| === rc0mbs is now known as rcombs | ||
| zhsj | sacarlson, built into kernel? .. that's why, just now i `lsmod` there's no output | 09:59 |
| sacarlson | zhsj: yes sr_mod is compiled into the kernel is no longer a module sr_mod.ko | 10:00 |
| sacarlson | zhsj: you can physicaly remove your dvd and see if the problem goes away. if not then it's a different problem | 10:00 |

| White_Cat | Is there an easy(er) way to move a specific directory with its contents and subdirs from one location to another | 10:16 |
| White_Cat | I want to move contents of /home/user1/dir1 to /home/user2 | 10:17 |
| phix | White_Cat: sudo mv /home/user1/dir1 /home/user2/ | 10:18 |
| White_Cat | will it recursively move everything in it too? | 10:20 |
| random1 | yes White_Cat | 10:21 |
| phix | White_Cat: Depending on the file system, It simply changes the pointer of the parent directory to the new location | 10:21 |
| phix | which has the same effect :) | 10:21 |
| random1 | for instance cp needs a -r option to do it recursively, but mv doesn't | 10:21 |
| phix | random1: correct, cp and mv do different things | 10:22 |
| random1 | yep | 10:22 |
| White_Cat | one coppies other moves | 10:22 |
| random1 | c(o)p(y) and mo)v(e) | 10:22 |
| phix | random1: cp makes a copy, mv just changes file system pointers | 10:22 |
| random1 | i know :) | 10:22 |
| White_Cat | rm removes those | 10:22 |
| random1 | that's it | 10:22 |
| White_Cat | there is also an rmdir | 10:22 |
| phix | rm calls unlink(); :) | 10:23 |
| White_Cat | sudo mv /home/odoo/odoo /home/odoo/ would this have the desired effect? | 10:23 |
| White_Cat | of reducing the second directory? | 10:23 |

| phix | White_Cat: as I said, all mv does it changes filesystem pointers | 10:24 |
| White_Cat | so how can I move the contents of odoo directory to one directory lower? | 10:25 |
| wutang | how much slower or faster are installs dvd vs usb? | 10:25 |
| phix | White_Cat: unless it is on a filesystem that doesn't support that and then it falls back to a recursive copy then a recursive delete | 10:25 |
| White_Cat | as in /home/odoo/odoo -> /home/odoo | 10:25 |
| geirha | sudo mv /home/odoo /home/odoo.old && sudo mv /home/odoo.old/odoo /home | 10:25 |
| phix | White_Cat: yeah you need to rename it first :) | 10:25 |

| Goldwing | Q: i have a SIP phone, but i can't remember what vlan it is on, i do see the IP in the display. Is there a way to scan all vlans for a specific IP? | 10:39 |
| phix | Goldwing: you should be able to traffic sniff that | 10:40 |
| phix | just look for vlan traffic and see what id it is in | 10:41 |
| Goldwing | phix : ethereal? | 10:41 |
| phix | Goldwing: I recommend Wireshark | 10:41 |

| lukevinc | Hello, My gzip is not descompressing my .zip file, i tried to reinstall the libs zip and unzip, i don't know what I can do, can someone help me? | 10:45 |
| White_Cat | connection->ssh-> ? | 10:45 |
| phix | lukevinc: gzip and .zip are two different formats | 10:46 |
| phix | White_Cat: sure | 10:46 |
| phix | take a look in there | 10:47 |
| phix | lukevinc: unzip filename.zip should work if it is a zip | 10:47 |
| lukevinc | phix: gzip i mean the program which does the compression/descompression in Ubuntu, i don't know the name exactly, I know it's from GNOME. | 10:47 |
| phix | lukevinc: type in file filename.zip to see what the actual format is | 10:47 |
| carpediembaby | hello. i wanted to ask if it is safe/useful to use something like this: sudo sync && sudo echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches to clean up cache? | 10:47 |
| geirha | White_Cat: My guess would be that your .profile or .bashrc file changes the TERM environment variable | 10:48 |
| phix | lukevinc: gzip is a command like application that has nothing to do with gnome | 10:48 |
| phix | lukevinc: do you mean fileroller? | 10:48 |
| lukevinc | phix: i guess so. | 10:48 |
| phix | lukevinc: Are you looking for a GUI app or a command line app or any app that decompresses a zip file? | 10:48 |
| lukevinc | phix: exactly. | 10:49 |
| phix | lukevinc: I asked 3 questions there | 10:49 |
| Mathisen | White_Cat i had that problem with putty when you start it go to Windows - translation and change it to UTF8 | 10:49 |
| brokenlaptopscre | hey, i got a broken laptop screen. i tried to connect an external one for the installation process (lubuntu alternate 14.04.1) but it doesn't show the picture. even disconnecting the screen did not work. any suggestions? it's a compaq 6720s i'm having trouble with | 10:49 |
| lukevinc | phix: my GUI descompressor doesn't recognize .zip files. i don't know why. | 10:49 |
| phix | lukevinc: well, three choices, which one were you saying exactly to? | 10:49 |
| brokenlaptopscre | it's probably not picture but output ;) | 10:50 |
| carpediembaby | I recently ran into a problem. I was running some Java code and i got an exception that there is not enough memory available. I have 16G or ram but the system monitor showed only 30% under use. But in the multiload indicator, i saw that the most of the memory is marked as 'cached'. | 10:50 |
| phix | lukevinc: ok, and what is your GUI decompressors name? | 10:50 |
| phix | lukevinc: the default one in ubuntu? or have you installed something else? | 10:50 |
| lukevinc | phix: Archive Manager. | 10:50 |
| phix | file roller hey | 10:50 |
| lukevinc | phix: it's the same? | 10:51 |
| phix | lukevinc: this is from apt-cache show file-roller --> | 10:52 |
| phix | "File-roller doesn't perform archive operations by itself, but relies on standard tools for this." | 10:52 |
| phix | Suggests: arj, binutils, cpio, lha, lzip, lzma, lzop, ncompress, rpm2cpio, rzip, sharutils, unace, unalz, unrar | p7zip-rar, unzip, xz-utils, zip, zoo | 10:52 |
| phix | lukevinc: so if you install zip and unzip (sudo apt-get install zip unzip) then it will work with zip files | 10:53 |
| === rc0mbs is now known as rcombs | ||
| lukevinc | i tried it, it says "An error occurred while loading the archive.". | 10:54 |
| phix | lukevinc: if that command fails then you need to add universe and probably multiverse to your apt repo | 10:54 |
| phix | lukevinc: perhaps the archive is faulty / corrupt | 10:54 |
| lukevinc | phix:but i did descompress using the terminal, the error is only in file-roller. | 10:54 |
| phix | lukevinc: and you have installed the suggests for zip and unzip? | 10:55 |
| lukevinc | phix: yes. | 10:55 |
| phix | lukevinc: *shrugs* just use the command line then | 10:55 |
| lukevinc | and file-roller still bugged :( | 10:55 |
| phix | Personally i don't use file-roller, I use the command line tools | 10:56 |

| cfhowlett | ncappa, first: target device hadware?? | 11:33 |
| todaysnoob | people? | 11:34 |
| janslow | todaysnoob I have run Ubuntu from a SD card which may be better than a USB drive because you can plug in the SD card and leave it there flush with the case, rather than having a USB drive protruding from the netbook. Just make sure you get a high class SD card (for data transfer speed purposes) and aside from that install Ubuntu as if you were installing to any other disk; just make sure to select the SD card during install! | 11:34 |

| ActionParsnip | todaysnoob: use TAB to autocomplete names ;) | 11:36 |
| todaysnoob | and is there a simple way to make it load(at boot) and run from ram? Thanks again ActionParsnip, new to irc. janslow reading the linked page, very helpful thanks | 11:37 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 11:38 |
| janslow | todaysnoob why would you want to run everything from RAM? that would be exhaustive and un-necessary | 11:38 |
| Krayg | Agreed | 11:38 |
| kelunik | Morning, if I backup my whole filesystem, format the disk, install Windows 10, copy the files (ubuntu) back to that hdd, run grub-update, will my ubuntu work like before or is there anything I should do in another way? | 11:38 |
| todaysnoob | janslow: I figured load times maybe faster that way for apps | 11:39 |
| Krayg | SD is fast anyway | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | kelunik, windows ... 10? | 11:39 |
| ncappa | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8718334/ cfhowlett | 11:39 |
| janslow | todaysnoob it would but that's not the purpose of RAM. a SD card will be faster than a "standard" spinning disk drive anyway | 11:39 |
| janslow | todaysnoob if you are concerned about speed try Xubuntu rather than Ubuntu as that will be faster for you | 11:39 |
| Krayg | I would run Windows 10 in a virtual environment | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | ncappa, lubuntu or xubuntu would be much better for older / slower specification hardware like that. | 11:40 |
| sacarlson | kelunik: I think the update-grub part may end up being a bit more complicated | 11:40 |
| todaysnoob | janslow: right, thanks I'll get the new version of it. just for argument's sake, can we boot from a hdd install and then sort of minimize writes to the hdd? also when booting from SD card will the hdd remain turned off until they're specifically mounted? | 11:41 |

| cfhowlett | ncappa, error messages? or what? | 11:43 |
| kelunik | sacarlson: That's my concern. But it should work if I install a fresh Ubuntu and replace it afterwards, when MBR is overwritten? | 11:44 |
| ncappa | There's no error to report. All that happens is I turn the PC on and it boots into windows like nothing ever happened. | 11:44 |

| ubottu | ncappa , 8.1 should be a UEFI device - couple of extra steps needed: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 11:47 |
| ncappa | So any idea on where ubuntu went after I installed it? there's nothing on the "This PC" thing in windows that indicates another partition. I'm running Windows 8.1 | 11:47 |

| brent | selwtn could that possibly work with X11VNC? | 12:01 |
| selwyn | so it is better to install sepeartely from iso ..am i right? | 12:01 |
| cfhowlett | selwyn, 14.04 for the win. LTS only. | 12:01 |
| Ben64 | selwyn: there really is no advantage to having 14.10 over 14.04 | 12:01 |
| alumne1smx | ds | 12:02 |
| Pici | Er.. Some people do like having the latest packages though... | 12:02 |
| NikTh | BluesKaj: I have blacklisted nouveau and tested the hibernation again, and it worked as it should. So, why my assumption is incorrect ? | 12:03 |
| selwyn | ok. thanks for the advice mates..i will be careful | 12:03 |
| cfhowlett | Pici, bleeding edge = bloody edge. IMO | 12:03 |
| Ben64 | if you want the "latest" packages, ubuntu isn't for you at all | 12:03 |
| NikTh | I have tested other modules unload as well, but to no avail. Only when I unloaded nouveau the hibernation worked. | 12:04 |
| Pici | selwyn: You can upgrade from 14.04 if you want. You do not need to reinstall if you want to go to 14.10. | 12:04 |
| NikTh | And the problem is clearly that happens when the graphics struggle to load again. I can see the uncompress of the image completed successfully, but then the screen remains black. | 12:05 |
| selwyn | Pici guide me please..Can it be done in terminal or down load the iso? | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | there's no need to blacklist nouveau if you installed the recommended nvidia driver, NikTh | 12:05 |
| Ben64 | selwyn: do you have an actual reason to get 14.10? if not, you should just stay on 14.04 | 12:05 |
| Pici | selwyn: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UtopicUpgrades | 12:05 |
| selwyn | Ben64: Ben i think i will follow your advice but am just curious to see the diffrernces between the two as i am new on Ubuntu.Thanks | 12:07 |
| NikTh | BluesKaj: This is a test. A test where you can search and find which module can cause this problem. /sys/power/pm_test | 12:07 |

| bumbar__ | Ben64, sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope | 12:35 |
| bumbar__ | i mean 0 | 12:35 |
| Ben64 | bumbar__: yep you can't do that that way | 12:35 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: I suppose. But there seems to be something weird going on. I am trying to understand what is happening. Two observations which I can't seem to explain. First, i ran a java program and it crashed with an error saying that it was unable to allocate memory. At that time, the entire 16G of ram/cache combination was far from consumed. | 12:35 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: Second, I tried copying some big files into /tmp and noticing iotop showed that it was writing to disk while the 'cache' part of the ram got filled up. | 12:36 |
| Ben64 | bumbar__: echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope | 12:36 |
| Ben64 | carpediembaby: i can't see how the /tmp test is relevant at all | 12:37 |

| bumbar__ | Ben64, thanks | 12:38 |
| Ben64 | carpediembaby: as for java, i think processes are still limited to a certain amount of memory | 12:38 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: this leads me to believe that the 16GB is mimicked somehow and not really using the RAM | 12:38 |

| Avic | i need help for installing the freeNX in Ubuntu. I can find a way to install it in ubuntu 14.10. Sould I install the ubuntu 14.4? | 12:39 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: For the /tmp, shouldn't it be mounted to the RAM? If not, how come the 'cache' of the ram fills up when i copy the files to /tmp ? | 12:39 |
| levo | i'v got a pdf document of a book in which 2pages of the book are in one page of the pdf (pictures not selectable text) how can i make a pdf file but separate the pdf file in half, meaning that the left half of the pdf page will be copied on one full page of the output pdf . . . ? | 12:39 |
| Ben64 | carpediembaby: by default, i believe /tmp is on disk | 12:39 |
| Avic | and use this repository: http://ppa.launchpad.net/freenx-team/testing/ubuntu | 12:40 |
| Avic | ? | 12:40 |
| Ben64 | Avic: you should not mix versions | 12:41 |
| Avic | i want to install the freenx, i have ubuntu 14.10. What version of ubuntu should i have to use it with freeNX? | 12:42 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: Okay. So, right now, I have 6.8GB (with about 8GB of free RAM) of used memory according to free -m. Now, if i try to run my java app with 3G of heap (java -Xmx3G -jar myjar.jar) I get "Could not reserve enough space for object heap" | 12:42 |
| Avic | What is the most recent ubuntu version for using freeNX? | 12:42 |
| Ben64 | carpediembaby: you should maybe run 64bit if you want to use lots of ram anyway | 12:43 |
| Ben64 | Avic: well in that ppa you posted, the latest they have is 14.04 | 12:43 |
| Avic | yeahn but its testing. Its fine to use it? | 12:44 |
| Ben64 | if you really need freenx, maybe. PPAs are unsupported though | 12:44 |
| Avic | the latest stable is for ubuntu 12.04... its to old | 12:44 |
| carpediembaby | Ben64: Yes I know, but i am stuck to this for now. The system admin won't install the 64Bit version right away. That is why I was asking if there is a way to support 64bit (temporarily) without having to do a clean install | 12:44 |

| moldy | lapion: that is what i did | 13:37 |
| moldy | lapion: these drivers *are* officially supported for ubuntu 12.04 | 13:37 |
| lapion | by the manufacturer not by ubuntu.. | 13:37 |
| White_Cat | openerp-server does exist under /home/odoo | 13:37 |
| moldy | sure, but my questions was not really about these drivers. it was about how to determine the correct XInput version. | 13:38 |
| onla | actionParsnip, ok tks | 13:38 |
| moldy | White_Cat: what does `ls -l /home/odoo/openerp-server` say? | 13:41 |
| White_Cat | it is owned by a different user | 13:41 |
| White_Cat | I think I need to chown it | 13:41 |
| White_Cat | how can i do that though? | 13:41 |
| moldy | White_Cat: don't guess. show us the output. | 13:44 |
| White_Cat | I dont guess | 13:44 |
| White_Cat | I see it | 13:44 |
| White_Cat | -rwxrwxr-x 1 odoo_user odoo_admin 155 Oct 28 11:07 /home/odoo/openerp-se | 13:44 |
| moldy | White_Cat: you are guessing. the owner is not related to your problem. | 13:44 |
| White_Cat | okay I posted it | 13:44 |
| moldy | White_Cat: you probably entered the sudo command incorrectly. please repeat it here exactly. | 13:46 |
| moldy | be sure to repeat it exactly as you entered it. the error message suggests you entered quotes where you should not. | 13:46 |
| White_Cat | sudo -u odoo_user '/home/odoo/openerp-server /etc/odoo-server.conf' | 13:47 |
| moldy | White_Cat: ok. remove the quotes, then it should work. | 13:47 |
| AlexPortable | Are there any tweaks available for gnome fallback? | 13:47 |
| SimonKing | how to use google in China | 13:47 |
| cardio76 | list! | 13:48 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: no. its a downstripped version from gnome. | 13:48 |
| moldy | White_Cat: `sudo foo bar` will run the command `foo` with the argument `bar`. in contrast to that, `sudo 'foo bar'` will run the command `foo bar` | 13:48 |
| AlexPortable | it looks nice tho | 13:48 |
| White_Cat | I see | 13:48 |
| White_Cat | OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/odoo_admin/.local' | 13:48 |
| AlexPortable | White_Cat: yes you do | 13:48 |
| moldy | White_Cat: that is because your shell treats `foo bar` as 2 arguments, but `'foo bar'` as one argument | 13:48 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: features vs. look. your choice | 13:49 |
| AlexPortable | k1l_: well i want both | 13:49 |
| freetos00 | i forgot to do and apt-get update and apt-get upgrade before trying to install the mate desktop and it says it's not available? | 13:49 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: what you want is not important here. what gnome-fallback offers is important. and you know what it offers. if you want more talk to gnome | 13:50 |
| === Guest48795 is now known as jack | ||

| AlexPortable | lxde and kde come close, but are ugly | 13:53 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: ok. if you are not interessted at all stop asking. | 13:53 |
| AlexPortable | ubuntu 10.04 was perfect | 13:53 |
| AlexPortable | until you guys moved to unity | 13:53 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: lxde is what you want. it offers all you told just 2 minutes ago | 13:54 |
| iptable | AlexPortable, try Linux Mint Cinnamon , or Linux Mint Mate. Both look exactly like you want themm to | 13:54 |
| AlexPortable | What do you mean 'if you are not interested at all' | 13:54 |
| k1l_ | "<AlexPortable> yeah but none of them have that" that is just a lie or you did not look at my link in my answer at all. | 13:54 |
| cfhowlett | SimonKing, vpn. | 13:54 |
| AlexPortable | 14:53 <AlexPortable> lxde and kde come close, but are ugly | 13:55 |
| AlexPortable | any way to make unity less system demanding? | 13:55 |
| cfhowlett | AlexPortable, not really. By design, it's flashy and hungry. | 13:56 |
| AlexPortable | I love how the top bar integrates with the close buttons | 13:56 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: other desktop makers dont like that. so you will need unity for that. | 13:57 |
| cardio76 | list! | 13:57 |
| AlexPortable | well what is so heavy about unity? | 13:57 |
| k1l_ | !list > cardio76 | 13:57 |
| ubottu | cardio76, please see my private message | 13:57 |
| AlexPortable | the animations? or the left bar? | 13:57 |
| AlexPortable | because I have to wait one minute before the alt+f2 disappears | 13:57 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: it offers a lot of services. its not that more heavy than gnome-shell | 13:58 |
| cfhowlett | AlexPortable, get more ram. | 13:58 |
| AlexPortable | i have enough ram | 13:58 |
| AlexPortable | gnome-classic-fallback is fast | 13:58 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: you are again mixing things. i said "gnome-shell" | 13:58 |
| AlexPortable | what's the difference? | 13:58 |
| cfhowlett | !gnome-shell | 13:58 |
| cfhowlett | !gnome | 13:59 |
| ubottu | GNOME was the default desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10. To install the GNOME Shell, type [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ] in a !terminal. For the GNOME-based !flavor of Ubuntu, see !ubuntu-gnome | 13:59 |
| AlexPortable | How can I fix the menu bar in unity? | 14:00 |
| rocky | so... since upgrading to ubuntu 14.10 ... latest chrome stable, chrome beta, and chromium ... after i open about 8 or so tabs i consistently get a crashed tab... it lets me reload only to go to the crash info again | 14:00 |
| AlexPortable | I had the same problem in gnome, when i alt+rightclick i get the menu 'minimize, maximize, move, resize, always on top, close' | 14:00 |
| rocky | is this a known issue? any work around? | 14:00 |
| White_Cat | http://pastebin.com/anb65e3d <- now I get this error | 14:01 |
| White_Cat | I am quite confused | 14:01 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: what do you want to fix on the unity bar? | 14:01 |
| AlexPortable | I just said | 14:01 |
| cfhowlett | AlexPortable, fix? It's not broken. and you've been given no fewer than a dozen suggestions on the last 20 minutes, all of which you've rejected. So ... good luck. | 14:01 |
| AlexPortable | 15:00 <AlexPortable> I had the same problem in gnome, when i alt+rightclick i get the menu 'minimize, maximize, move, resize, always on top, close' | 14:01 |
| AlexPortable | it is broken | 14:01 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: what do you want to get instead? | 14:01 |
| AlexPortable | well, add to panel? | 14:01 |
| AlexPortable | about on the notifications? | 14:01 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: that is not possible anymore | 14:02 |
| feurd | Hi! Does someone knows how to set a global hotkey for the auto-type feature of keepass2 under Ubuntu 14.04? | 14:02 |
| AlexPortable | what do you get then k1l_ ? | 14:02 |
| AlexPortable | when you alt+rightclick? | 14:02 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: the menu you mentioned. and that is what is meant to get up | 14:02 |
| AlexPortable | huh | 14:03 |
| AlexPortable | then why the 'always on top' ? | 14:03 |
| actionParsnip | AlexPortable: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--iC-GN_jB--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/17f7ekax65bz6jpg.jpg left = gnome shell, right = unity | 14:03 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: what? | 14:03 |
| qengho | rocky: Hrm, check "dmesg" output. Does it say "gpu" and/or "i9nn"? | 14:03 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: can you please stay on one issue at a time? | 14:03 |
| AlexPortable | why? | 14:03 |
| AlexPortable | http://img.nl.eu.org/ialuYB.png | 14:04 |
| k1l_ | you were talking about window-decorations, then about systray, now about "always on top" for windows. | 14:04 |
| AlexPortable | yes because i was trying unity | 14:04 |
| AlexPortable | but ran into this bug | 14:04 |
| k1l_ | which bug? | 14:04 |
| AlexPortable | that it shows this | 14:04 |
| k1l_ | "all is different" is not a bug. | 14:04 |
| k1l_ | that is because the window menu is integrated into the top panel. | 14:05 |
| cfhowlett | k1l_, dang. that saying should be a LAW | 14:05 |
| AlexPortable | huh | 14:05 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: you just said you like how the menu from the window integrates into the top bar. so why are you surprised now to get the window settings mneu there? | 14:06 |
| rocky | qengho, oh yeah, i'm seeing tons of segfaults from chrome regarding i965_dri | 14:08 |
| qengho | rocky: it's new video. That's hard to fix. | 14:09 |
| rocky | ugh | 14:09 |
| rocky | this is my exact issue: http://askubuntu.com/questions/541131/chromium-dmesg-errors-ubuntu-14-10 seems the only thing i can do is build my own kernel or wait for an updated kernel | 14:10 |
| ionreflex | !guideline | 14:11 |
| AlexPortable | k1l_: because what would there be to put on top | 14:12 |
| k1l_ | AlexPortable: its the window menu from the window that is active. it is not meant to be put into the panel. its meant to be put on top of all windows | 14:13 |
| AlexPortable | there is no winow open | 14:13 |
| AlexPortable | window* | 14:13 |

| groverblue | so, after upgrading my VirtualBox guest 14.04 to 14.10, I can only boot into unity by booting into recovery mode and then resuming the boot. Doing a straight boot just results in the boot process sitting on the boot splash screen. | 14:21 |
| CosbySweater | groverblue: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop or whatever the package is called. This has been caused by login managers not starting in earlier versions, from what I can see. | 14:23 |
| JayJ | My 14.04 KVM guest freezes intermitently. I see stack trace in syslog and this message "INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks" | 14:23 |

| groverblue | CosbySweater: will do. Thanks. Love the nick! haha. | 14:26 |
| CosbySweater | groverblue: :D | 14:26 |
| CosbySweater | JayJ: Is this only happening with 14.04? | 14:27 |
| JayJ | CosbySweater: That's the one I've running at the moment. My cirros seems to work fine but it is not doing anything useful. I'm actually going to spin off some other flavor to test whether its OS or maybe HW. | 14:28 |
| apavlov | On 14.04, the "Allow different sources for each window" is not working for me. Instead, all windows share the same input source. What gives? | 14:28 |

| apavlov | qengho: yep | 14:30 |
| qengho | Ah, yes. | 14:30 |
| CosbySweater | JayJ: From googling a bit, it seems this could be hardware related. Worth giving it a go with other flavors to see if it's occurring. | 14:30 |

| jParkton | AlexPortable: try either in ~./gnome2/panel.d/default/launchers (for custom launchers) or in ~/.local/share/applications for system launchers for the logged in user | 15:14 |
| AlexPortable | i dont have .gnome2 | 15:15 |
| alexgl | in ubuntu server 14.04 I have gadmin-samba setup but I cannot get into it from another linux nor windows 7. it's a virtual machine that has got ip from dhcp. Is there something from the path that I'm missing, i'm doing \\server-ip\share | 15:16 |
| linuxuz3r | derelinguo, yes | 15:16 |
| jParkton | AlexPortable: some googling is needed | 15:17 |
| jParkton | AlexPortable: do you have a .gconf? | 15:18 |
| lumia900 | CosbySweater /etc/samba/smb.comf | 15:18 |
| jParkton | ls ~/.gconf | 15:18 |
| lumia900 | CosbySweater /etc/samba/smb.conf | 15:18 |
| derelinguo | linuxuz3r, 1st guess is grub not installed properly on refit. Boot into OS X and double check it's setup according to the instructions. Sorry it's been a while since I used refind/refit | 15:18 |
| linuxuz3r | when i install grub should i install it on the efi or on the root dir | 15:19 |

| jParkton | AlexPortable: sweet look in there | 15:21 |
| jParkton | AlexPortable: ls -la | 15:21 |
| derelinguo | linuxuz3r I think it just needs to be on the same partition refit lives. iirc you can have refit on the EFI partition but it gets dumped on the OS X install by default | 15:21 |

| jParkton | Pottu: try sudo apt-get install -f | 15:23 |

| Pottu | jParkton: sorry phone rang. so i need the latest version to prevent bluefish from crashing but i think i'll manage. i'll install all the packages needed now and ask for more help if i need. thx for your time :) | 15:26 |
| lumia900 | either via IP and Host name i can view the share folders | 15:26 |
| sacarlson | lumia900: yes understood that part so you can see it from windows but it disallows? | 15:27 |
| CosbySweater | lumia900: dumb question, did you create the samba user? | 15:27 |
| CosbySweater | smbpasswd -a username | 15:27 |
| lumia900 | well i have not make any major changes in all my office windows PC's | 15:28 |
| lumia900 | CosbySweater nope | 15:28 |
| lumia900 | but if some one outside office cant access my share ? | 15:28 |

| mgodby | Is there a good reason for network-manager-openconnect having kde dependencies now? | 15:30 |

| lumia900 | as first level i need to let open access for all to create their folders and files drop | 15:33 |
| lumia900 | so i need a open share location without any authentication from samba or ubuntu | 15:33 |
| sacarlson | lumia900: back in the day I was able to just right click in nuatilus and say share folder samba and it worked | 15:33 |
| sacarlson | lumia900: my only chalenge back then was to make a directory that everyone could also write to | 15:34 |
| lumia900 | sacarlson: this i have CLI | 15:34 |
| xhv | how do add a rwe permissions to a username, i would like a standard acc to have rw permissions on one folder in root's files but i dont want to allow everyone rw | 15:35 |
| lumia900 | more over things i have tried with webmin was also failed to make the communication | 15:35 |
| groverblue | I might have a systemd issue. | 15:36 |
| sacarlson | lumia900: ok but if that feature still works could we just create the config file using nautilus right click and copy it to your system or at least analize it to see how it could work for yours | 15:36 |
| groverblue | btw, here is a post my Mark Shuttleworth talking about the move to systemd: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1316 | 15:36 |
| frog | hi, i tried to make a live stick dd. know this is was u get when you do ll: http://www.bitbin.it/U8lbYL2b | 15:36 |
| frog | what did i do wrong? | 15:37 |
| mgodby | frog: where are you running your ls? | 15:37 |
| frog | on the stick mgodby | 15:37 |
| mgodby | frog: After running your dd, you may not be able to read the usb stick normally unless you mount it like you would an iso | 15:38 |
| mgodby | frog: this has been my experience; it doesn't necessarily mean that the usb stick won't work for booting | 15:38 |
| frog | mgodby: should i just try booting it? | 15:38 |
| frog | mgodby: ? | 15:39 |
| sacarlson | frog that doesn't look good. I would assume that something went wrong as when I made a boot usb I could still plug it in and view it | 15:41 |
| sacarlson | frog: I don't recall ever getting dd to work to make a boot disk but that was long ago so I think they design some to be able to do so | 15:41 |
| jParkton | Pottu: are you good? I stepped away | 15:42 |
| mgodby | frog: yeah, you could try booting into it if you can spare the time to try | 15:42 |
| mgodby | sacarlson: I used dd to create boot images with fairly consistent success | 15:43 |
| sacarlson | mgodby: cool what was the last version that worked with that? | 15:43 |
| mgodby | sacarlson: I think ubuntu 14.04 worked for me, but I may be thinking of fedora's latest ver. standby; i'll check | 15:44 |
| jParkton | Pottu: are you just needing a good editor for code? | 15:44 |
| jParkton | I would go with brackets | 15:44 |
| Pottu | jParkton: i need a good editor for html/css/php | 15:44 |
| sacarlson | mgodby: I just got here so make sure he did an md5sum on the iso and maybe check the usb flash to be good | 15:44 |

| trijntje__ | frog, and how about if windows onscreen keyboard is also messed up? :P | 15:54 |
| === frog is now known as frog_afk | ||

| jParkton | locate: as your actual user not the guest one right? | 16:00 |
| jParkton | ok cool | 16:00 |
| mgodby | sacarlson: block-size=4; I don't believe it matters a whole lot what your block size is, though. Arch Linux recommends bs=4M on their wiki | 16:00 |
| sacarlson | mgodby: I thought bs was block size or the number of bytes to push onto the medea | 16:00 |
| jParkton | now locate the settings for login | 16:00 |
| mgodby | sacarlson: yeah, it just changes the write frequency | 16:01 |

| === Guest28743 is now known as kimphill | ||

| somsip | LucasTT: I believe it's required for steam, or the required version of the drivers is higher than that in the official repos. But I don't have it installed. You do. You should know... | 16:19 |
| l0rdn1x | peyam: is your system working? | 16:19 |
| actionParsnip | peyam: yes, your normal upgrades will do this for you | 16:19 |
| Paradise | ok, but let me reboot to get my display back on first | 16:19 |
| LucasTT | somsip, it's not required, it just recommends | 16:19 |
| LucasTT | damn i don't want to reinstall the system | 16:20 |
| somsip | LucasTT: that shows what I know. BEst if I leave it to someone who knows about steam to answer your questions | 16:20 |
| LucasTT | ok, thanks | 16:20 |
| peyam | l0rdn1x, yes but the fact that everything is working doesnt mean you shouldnt upgrade. actionParsnip : so I should wait for the automatic updates instead? | 16:20 |
| l0rdn1x | peyam: leave the kernel alone, until it asks you to update it. | 16:21 |
| peyam | great. | 16:21 |

| alexgl | guys what are your experiences with ubuntu server 14.04 lts? is it pleasant? I seem to find all kinds off howtos and forum threads for earlier versions. I mean is 14.04 lts not used much yet? | 16:55 |
| decci | actionParsnip: 4. Setup WLS environment in the current shell. Linux $ . $MW_HOME/wlserver/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh | 16:55 |
| decci | actionParsnip: So what is the other way to write this | 16:55 |
| actionParsnip | decci: no idea, maybe try another guide | 16:56 |
| JuiceSSH | decci: You can use 'source' instead of '.' | 16:56 |
| Pici | alexgl: Well, 14.04 was released this year. 12.04 has had two years for howtos to be written. | 16:56 |
| decci | JuiceSSH: Ohk | 16:56 |
| JuiceSSH | But they both do the same thing | 16:56 |
| Pici | alexgl: I'm using it just fine on a bunch of servers here. | 16:56 |
| JuiceSSH | decci: http://ss64.com/bash/source.html | 16:58 |
| alexgl | ok that makes sense, I haven't used linux for a few years, so I just grabbed the latest version :P | 16:58 |
| tidux | does 14.10 support the Winbook TW801 touchscreen driver? | 17:00 |

| Pici | alexgl: I don't use any desktop environments on my servers. | 17:02 |
| sacarlson | alexgl: oh I use mate, I never liked unity | 17:03 |
| tidux | bash on Linux, /bin/ksh on BSD | 17:03 |
| sacarlson | alexgl: mate is more like ubuntu 10.X or windows XP | 17:04 |
| alexgl | sacarlson: mate is gnome 2 right, any different from gnome-flashback-session | 17:04 |
| sacarlson | alexgl: well it's gnome something... I don't know anything about gnome-flashback-session | 17:05 |
| tidux | MATE is the old GNOME 2 codebase, modernized a bit | 17:05 |

| alexgl | allyourcodebase: whats the command to change the theme so that the window buttons are on the right side of the window in gnome-flashback metacity only | 17:21 |
| Dartellum | dym, you could try to add option host-name "drivewaycam1"; under your fixed-address line. Other than that, I do not see anything glaring at me. | 17:21 |
| imbezol | dym: try moving your host definition outside of the subnet definition | 17:22 |

| daftykins | vastkahuna: genii just told you. | 18:34 |
| genii | vastkahuna: I just answered that | 18:34 |
| bynarie | studentttu, you need to select manual partitioning during install | 18:34 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay, and then what? | 18:34 |
| bynarie | studentttu, first of all do you have an empty partition for linux? | 18:35 |
| bynarie | i have same setup as you..i have win8 on my reg hd and linux on ssd | 18:36 |
| studentttu | bynarie: unfortunately no. I only have one disk | 18:36 |
| studentttu | bynarie: it recognizes that 172gigs used out of 512 though | 18:36 |
| bynarie | studentttu, ok you need to probably resize your main partition to make a new partition | 18:36 |
| bynarie | studentttu, when you resize your main partition, of type NTFS probably, you will be left with "freespace". Use that freespace to make a new partiton of type EXT4 at mountpoint / | 18:38 |
| studentttu | bynarie: so should I edit partition, make parition lower say 400gigs? use as NTFS ? mount point windows? | 18:38 |
| adac | with 14:04 and the noveau driver the colors ar distorted in firefox. I have strange violet colors for blue for example | 18:38 |
| bynarie | keep the main partition the same type just resize it | 18:38 |
| bynarie | then take the freespace and create your ext4 part | 18:39 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay | 18:39 |
| bynarie | possibly depending on how much ram you have you might need a swap part too | 18:39 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay so, i have freespcae 112gigs now, type of partition? location of the npartition? and mount point is / ? | 18:40 |
| OerHeks | let ubuntu handle partitions in that free space :-) | 18:41 |
| studentttu | bynarie: type of new partition is automatically selceted as logical, other option is primary | 18:41 |
| studentttu | location of partition can be chose either beginning of space or end so which one | 18:41 |
| bynarie | take that freespace and make one "ext4 / 110gb" and another "swap 2gb" | 18:41 |
| OerHeks | or take a read first https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes | 18:41 |
| bynarie | leave it at whatever is already selected | 18:41 |
| bynarie | beginning of space | 18:41 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay, is 2 gigs enough for swap? i have 10gig ram | 18:42 |
| treehug88 | there is no globally correct answer to that questsion, studentttu | 18:42 |
| bynarie | yea.. you prolly dont even need the swap | 18:42 |
| bynarie | but just to be sure | 18:42 |
| OerHeks | you need swap if you want to hybernate | 18:43 |
| studentttu | bynarie: should mount point for ext4 be / ? | 18:43 |
| bynarie | yes | 18:43 |
| studentttu | okay | 18:43 |
| genii | studentttu: The usual is to have as much swap as you have ram | 18:43 |
| bynarie | i have never used hibernate so iwouldnt know | 18:44 |
| bynarie | i highly doubt you will need 10gb of swap | 18:44 |
| OerHeks | genii, sometimes or often a little more | 18:44 |
| bynarie | unless your doing some hardcore production work | 18:44 |
| Avic | I installed the freenx successfully in ubuntu 14.4. but can't acces to it from my windows using the nomachine software...this is getting very difficult to do... anyone uses this that can help please. | 18:45 |
| jParkton | and in hardcore 10G is not nearly enough | 18:45 |
| jParkton | ;) | 18:45 |
| bynarie | no its not lol | 18:45 |
| bynarie | not even close | 18:46 |
| vastkahuna | From what I was told earlier I have two ppa which need to be removed, but I need to name them first and I don't have that. How do I find andwhat to do next? | 18:46 |
| potterapple4269 | Guys any idea why after installing ubuntu windows takes 5-7 minutes to boot up? It gets stuck at a black screen | 18:46 |
| neldogz | Hi all, I have noticed intermittent issues mounting my partitions specified in the /etc/fstab file during bootup on a Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS system. It first started with issues mounting the encrypted swap which i replaced with an unencrypted swap partition and now bootup is complaining about an NTFS partition. The error is "The disk drive for /media/user1/partition1 is not ready or not present: Continue to wait, or press S to skip mounting o | 18:46 |
| neldogz | r M for manual recovery. | 18:46 |
| genii | bynarie: The contents of ram get copied to swap space when you hibernate, then copied back to ram when it wakes up again. So same or a bit more of swap as you have ram has nothing to do with how hard you are pushing the machine or how much ram you use for number crunching, it's just to make hibernate work properly. | 18:46 |
| studentttu | genii: OerHeks :SSS so I started install with 2 gig swap, does it mean im fuked | 18:46 |
| bynarie | thats cool... like i said i dont ever use hibernate so i wouldnt know that | 18:47 |
| vastkahuna | Help please? | 18:48 |
| OerHeks | vastkahuna, ppa:ehoover/compholio and ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair ?? | 18:48 |
| studentttu | bynarie: yeah okay | 18:48 |
| daftykins | vastkahuna: you have been told what to run - THREE times | 18:48 |
| bynarie | studentttu, you are fine | 18:48 |
| neldogz | This is my fstab: /dev/dm-1 /media/user1/partition1 ntfs defaults 0 0 | 18:48 |
| ahmed | hi | 18:48 |
| studentttu | bynarie: ty for your help | 18:48 |
| OerHeks | vastkahuna, i don't understand, you are in sources and do not see those ppa's? | 18:48 |
| bynarie | unless like they said you are using hibernate | 18:48 |
| studentttu | ill avoid using it heh | 18:48 |
| Avic | nxserver: NXSERVER - Version 3.2.0-74-SVN OS (GPL, using backend: 3.5.0) Can be the software version in windows problem? (client) | 18:48 |
| === ahmed is now known as Guest22917 | ||
| vastkahuna | No I don't understand this stuff | 18:49 |
| studentttu | bynarie: would ubuntu crash if i hibernate with ram full and there wouldnt be enough swap | 18:49 |
| bynarie | no problem studentttu | 18:49 |
| studentttu | ? | 18:49 |
| bynarie | genii, ^ | 18:49 |
| OerHeks | studentttu, it gives errors yes | 18:49 |
| studentttu | ok | 18:49 |
| bynarie | you can still resize if you havent installed yet | 18:49 |
| OerHeks | studentttu, that is why i said: let ubuntu partition the free space | 18:50 |
| Bashing-om | vastkahuna: A number of people are trying to help, and the issue is getting confused . Keep it simple. Did you do " sudo ppa-purge ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair " in terminal ? | 18:50 |
| bynarie | or modify | 18:50 |
| vastkahuna | Yes | 18:50 |
| genii | studentttu: As bynarie says, you still have time to resize, which is what I recommend | 18:50 |
| bynarie | i agree | 18:50 |
| studentttu | genii: im installing already, do you recommend i force shut down and restart install? :o | 18:51 |
| bynarie | vastkahuna, did you goto your software sources to visually see it? | 18:51 |
| === Daryl is now known as Guest65857 | ||
| bynarie | studentttu, no.. i believe you can still resize once its up and running with gparted | 18:51 |
| genii | studentttu: No. In this case, let it install. You can figure out how to sort out the swap after | 18:51 |
| studentttu | okay | 18:51 |
| Guest65857 | Hello i was just wondering if 1 made a program that compressed the whole EXT4 Hard Drive would it be able to do it? | 18:51 |
| bynarie | lol | 18:52 |
| treehug88 | that makes no sense. If you did it, it would be able to be done | 18:52 |
| potterapple4269 | (potterapple4269) Guys any idea why after installing ubuntu windows takes 5-7 minutes to boot up? It gets stuck at a black screen | 18:52 |
| vastkahuna | http://pastebin.com/qU93TkfK | 18:52 |
| bynarie | yea what are you talking about | 18:52 |
| mrvadon | hello everyone | 18:52 |
| vastkahuna | That's what it told me | 18:52 |
| mrvadon | this is a test | 18:52 |
| potterapple4269 | Me? | 18:52 |
| treehug88 | you passed | 18:53 |
| genii | Bashing-om: However, I think vastkahuna previously did something like sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-ubuntu-boot-repair-utopic.list ~/ ...so they likely need to reverse that before doing the ppa-purge | 18:53 |
| daftykins | genii: nah that failed | 18:53 |
| potterapple4269 | (potterapple4269) Guys any idea why after installing ubuntu windows takes 5-7 minutes to boot up? It gets stuck at a black screen please? | 18:53 |
| daftykins | genii: as per - http://pastebin.com/nCtmart6 | 18:54 |
| genii | daftykins: Ah, OK | 18:54 |
| treehug88 | potterapple4269: asking repeatedly probably won't help | 18:54 |
| vastkahuna | If so, then how do I reverse things? | 18:54 |
| potterapple4269 | Yeah :/ sorry | 18:54 |
| treehug88 | potterapple4269: after botup, examine the windows logs (hahahahah_ | 18:54 |
| treehug88 | ) | 18:54 |
| treehug88 | i'd guess it's waiting on some device | 18:54 |
| potterapple4269 | Treehug88 i can't find this loss anywhere!! | 18:54 |
| Avic | i did it :-) thanks | 18:55 |
| bynarie | hey potterapple4269 , ditch windows and stick with linux =] | 18:55 |
| genii | vastkahuna: Please pastebin the result of: ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* and also of: ls ~/*.list | 18:55 |
| potterapple4269 | Bynarie i can't do that university has a strict rule :/ can't remove windows plus i play on windows | 18:56 |
| bynarie | potterapple4269, i was just kidding anyway | 18:56 |
| Blizzy | anyone know the best way to emulate Ubuntu on Windows WITHOUT Dual-Booting? I want to learn Bash. | 18:56 |
| treehug88 | potterapple4269: you mean you can't find the windows logs? | 18:56 |
| potterapple4269 | :P | 18:56 |
| potterapple4269 | Yeah!! | 18:56 |
| treehug88 | Blizzy: use a vm | 18:56 |
| potterapple4269 | There is just one log of a scannow comand i did | 18:56 |
| treehug88 | virtualbox for example, Blizzy | 18:57 |
| daftykins | Blizzy: another vote for virtualbox here | 18:57 |
| Obiwantje | and another one | 18:57 |
| Blizzy | lul. | 18:57 |
| Obiwantje | there a prebuilt images | 18:57 |
| Blizzy | well, VB it is. | 18:57 |
| treehug88 | (I'm being very terse. Virtualbox allows you to install linux in a vm) | 18:57 |
| Blizzy | good. as I play Steam games. So I don't want to keep rebooting to either code or play Steam games. | 18:57 |
| treehug88 | yeah dual boot is the worst | 18:58 |
| potterapple4269 | Does vb take up a lot of ram? | 18:58 |
| rberg | if all you want is bash Cygwin might be a good way to go.. | 18:58 |
| treehug88 | rberg: yeah BUT | 18:58 |
| bynarie | Blizzy, i use virtualbox all the time | 18:58 |
| bynarie | virtualbox is deff the way to go | 18:58 |
| treehug88 | it's not just bash he'll be learning, and bash on windows is the worst (he'll also prolly wanna learn about unix utilities) | 18:58 |
| treehug88 | But yeah, cygwin is an option | 18:59 |
| vastkahuna | Pastebin said I've reached my limit | 18:59 |
| bynarie | but.. from my experience cygwin is not nearly as fast as running bash on linux.. obviously lol | 18:59 |
| Blizzy | yeah, I want to be a Full Stack Dev, so learning Bash is a must. | 18:59 |
| Blizzy | also it allows me to get used to Linux. | 18:59 |
| Blizzy | now, is there a way to make it act like a VPS, where I can only use the console? | 19:00 |
| genii | vastkahuna: Use http://paste.ubuntu.com/ instead then | 19:00 |
| bynarie | blizzy yes | 19:00 |
| Blizzy | how? | 19:00 |
| bynarie | install sshd | 19:00 |
| bynarie | also, virtualbox provides a way to use remote desktop right away with desktop sharing | 19:01 |
| genii | Blizzy: In this case, the package is named openssh-server | 19:01 |
| daftykins | vastkahuna: paste.ubuntu.com | 19:01 |
| bynarie | Blizzy, yes sorry | 19:01 |

| bynarie | lsusb | 19:04 |
| XRayID | SUP M8S | 19:04 |

| bynarie | file manager | 19:05 |
| Guest39303 | darkangel_: it did not pop up i have my phone connected, and i want to safely eject it | 19:05 |
| jhonny | Hey people, I'm looking for a irc channel about front end develpper | 19:06 |
| jhonny | My name is Jhonny, I'm from Brazil | 19:06 |
| pbx | Guest39303, pardon me, bynarie is right. if file manager is not showing the device, it's unlikely that anything is using its filesystem | 19:06 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: file manager does not show it | 19:06 |
| vastkahuna | So what do you think? | 19:06 |

| genii | work, afk | 19:07 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: itis being used because i can see my phone chargeing, where do i click to eject it, is there an ubuntu equellent to the windows, "this computer" | 19:07 |
| genii | daftykins: He will also need the ppa names for ppa-purge of the other ppa in there, maybe you can help, i have to go work for 15-20 minutes | 19:08 |
| bynarie | Guest39303, the equivalent is File Manager, or dolphin, whatever file manager you use.. im telling you | 19:08 |
| pbx | Guest39303, right. so it's only charging, and stopping charging does not require any special gentle treatment. | 19:08 |
| bynarie | just like pbx said | 19:08 |
| daftykins | genii: sadly i too am chore-laden! | 19:08 |
| Avic | well i didn't actually... | 19:09 |
| Guest39303 | pbx: but i want to eject it just incase dont want to damage it, how do i eject where do i click | 19:09 |
| darkangel_ | Guest39303: this should help right click and "Open Browser" apt://gnome-phone-manager | 19:09 |
| Guest39303 | darkangel_: what browser? | 19:09 |
| Guest39303 | darkangel_: right click on what xactlly | 19:09 |
| bynarie | Guest39303, your phone is only gonna show up in the device list IF its mounted as a media device, aka MTP | 19:09 |
| melio | I'm running 14.04 should i upgrade to 14.10 using apt-get | 19:09 |
| bynarie | Just because its charging doesnt mean its sd card is mounted | 19:10 |
| darkangel_ | well open Ubuntu software Center and search Phone and ull find a Phone Manager program | 19:10 |
| melio | or should i wipe and reinstall. i don't have much on this box except a very nice icon for mincraft i found and i don't want to repalce | 19:10 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: what you wrote is ure chinese, how do i see what devices are connected and how do i eject my phone | 19:10 |
| Guest39303 | pure chinese | 19:10 |
| Nao | Bonsoir | 19:10 |

| Guest39303 | bynarie: yo say so, but i want to be certain, there must be an eject option somewhere | 19:11 |
| bynarie | no! | 19:11 |
| bynarie | not for a charging only device | 19:11 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: is there no way of seeing connected devices? | 19:12 |

| vastkahuna | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8723012/ | 19:12 |
| bynarie | ok think of it this way... if you plug your phone in the wall... do you have to press an eject button? NO. you just unplug it.. same idea. | 19:12 |
| OerHeks | Guest39303, if nothing is mounted or your phone is not acting as a gateway, you can safely disconnect it. if you have doubt: turn off your phone and then remove it :-) | 19:12 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: in addition to the chargeing, i can if i click the arrows up to the right next to language, i can see there the phone under wired connection 2 | 19:12 |

| SonikkuAmerica | Please do not take polls in the channel. BestBot in #ubuntu-bots might help Weegee | 19:14 |
| bynarie | Guest39303, if you cant access any files on it, it doesnt need ejected. simple as that | 19:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | weyer: ^^ | 19:14 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: so you are saying there is no way of seeing a list of connected devices in ubuntu 14.04? | 19:14 |
| Pici | SonikkuAmerica: There is no bestbot | 19:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (Wow, everything got streamlined...) | 19:15 |
| bynarie | im done man im sorry | 19:15 |
| bynarie | i told you the answer | 19:15 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: ok | 19:15 |
| Guest39303 | bynarie: is there an unbuntu help channel other than this one | 19:16 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Guest39303: USB? [ lsusb ] Directly connected? [ lspci ] | 19:16 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: lsusb will show connected devices, which should show how they are detected and what's done with them (ie mounting) in dmesg. | 19:16 |
| bynarie | guys, dont bother | 19:17 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: is there a way to see connected devices without the terminal | 19:17 |
| bynarie | here we go again | 19:17 |
| bynarie | lol | 19:17 |
| Guest39303 | SonikkuAmerica: i there a way to see connected devices without the terminal | 19:17 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Nothing meaningful, and there's no reason not to use it. | 19:17 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Console commands give you access at a lower level. | 19:18 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: are you saying that ubuntu 14.04 offers no visual means of graphically seeing connected devices? | 19:18 |
| vastkahuna | What should I try next? | 19:18 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Why would it? You can do it easily from the console with a single command. | 19:18 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Why would you not use the console? | 19:19 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: because i came from windows and code is not my thing and i want to click and see | 19:19 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: like millions of other humans | 19:19 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Good thing you have Linux to teach you how. It's a simple text based command and result, graphics have nothing to add. | 19:19 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: tell that to all phones and all people using windows, anyway you might not see the need but here i am requiring it so back to the original question is there no way of seeing connected devices graphically? | 19:20 |
| leonic12 | is there a yumi channel or something_ | 19:20 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: No, it doesn't work that way. | 19:20 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: fantastic | 19:20 |
| bynarie | jhutchins_wk, i think your wasting your time man... i just went through all of this with him | 19:20 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: You're not computer literate if you can't use basic console commands - in Windows as well as Linux. | 19:21 |
| bynarie | jhutchins_wk, i agree^^^ | 19:21 |
| crazypyro | Is it feasible that low power mode in the kernal is causing periodic writes to corrupt a FAT file system (USB drive) that is running Ubuntu 10.04? | 19:21 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: in windows i can go to this computer, right click the usb, and select eject | 19:21 |
| trijntje | Guest39303, just go to the file manager and eject it from there | 19:21 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: You can in many linux file managers as well - if the device is mounted. | 19:22 |
| Guest39303 | trijntje: it is not lsited in the file manager | 19:22 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Then it's not mounted and doesn't need to be ejected. | 19:22 |
| trijntje | Guest39303, then it is not mounted, and you can safely remove it | 19:22 |

| trijntje | Guest39303, you are not listening: you can unplug it safely | 19:23 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Ejecting it has no meaning. lsusb sees it because it is connected, it's not mounted and doesn't need to be ejected. | 19:23 |
| Bashing-om | vastkahuna: keeping it simple, is the file for "boot repair" moved back in place. to verify do terminal command -> tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | pastebinit <- . IF that file is in place, then one may ppa-puge this one PPA, and then we address ehoover-compholio-saucy . | 19:23 |

| trijntje | Guest39303, can you explain what you mean by eject? | 19:24 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: ok les assume you are right what would be the safest way to remove it | 19:24 |

| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: Just physically remove it. | 19:24 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: i am not interested in the "power"all i want is something that is virus resistant that will allow me to connect my phoe and read my mails | 19:24 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: If you learn how to deal with the computer you will understand the things you're trying to do and not have these problems. | 19:25 |
| bynarie | Guest39303, get out.. you need no help here | 19:25 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: and what is the safest way to phisycally remove it, should i turn off the phone first, and after that should i remove the cable from the phone or from the computer first | 19:25 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/DOS-Win-to-Linux-HOWTO.html http://www.linuxcommand.org/ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2005/05/20/terminal1.html http://www.ischool.berkeley.edu/~kevin/unix-tutorial/toc.html http://linuxcommand.org/lc3_learning_the_shell.php http://linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php | 19:25 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: JUST DISCONNECT THE DANGED THING!!! | 19:26 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: i dont want to learn al terminal commands and all that i just want to be able to click and use | 19:26 |
| trijntje | Guest39303, just unplug it, there is no safer/less safe way to unplug it | 19:26 |
| Avic | anyone uses freenx here? | 19:26 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: yes disconnect it sure, but which way is the safest | 19:26 |
| Guest39303 | trijntje: really? | 19:26 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: The illusion that Windows gives of "ejecting" the drive is simply to unmount the filesystem. It has no effect on ANYTHING else besides whether the filesystem is mounted. | 19:26 |
| OerHeks | Guest39303, safest way: turn off your phone and then remove it :-) | 19:27 |
| OerHeks | :-D | 19:27 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: so you say, but humor me, which is the safest way to do it | 19:27 |
| trijntje | Guest39303, yes, really. You have multiple experts here telling you to just pull the plug | 19:27 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: TAKE A BLOODY AXE AND CUT THE CORD! | 19:27 |
| bynarie | Guest39303, first of all you need to bend over, smack yourself in the face, have someone kick you in the ass, then unplug it.. this is the proper removal technique | 19:27 |
| OerHeks | keep asking is also safe | 19:27 |
| Guest39303 | OerHeks: ok thanks, but after i turn it off which part of the cable should i pull first the part to the phone or the part to the computer | 19:27 |
| tholum | Does ubuntu landscape give any remote access other then scripts? I am looking for a remote shell if possible | 19:27 |
| jhutchins_wk | Guest39303: No, I will not humor you, there is NOTHING beyond unmounting the filesystem. | 19:27 |
| trijntje | bynarie, behave please, that is no way to talk to people | 19:27 |
| bynarie | lol | 19:27 |
| bynarie | sorry | 19:27 |
| OerHeks | Guest39303, which connector ? ... o gush | 19:27 |
| SonikkuAmerica | <jhutchins_wk> Guest39303: TAKE A BLOODY AXE AND CUT THE CORD! <<< lolololol. :P | 19:28 |
| bynarie | i am cracking up watching this guy pestor everyone | 19:28 |
| Guest39303 | OerHeks: yes which part of the cable is the safest to pull first the part connected to the turned off phon or the part connected to the active computer | 19:28 |
| jhutchins_wk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzw1_2b-I7A | 19:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Guest39303: Did you turn the cable off and back on again? :P | 19:28 |
| OerHeks | if your phone is turned off, there is no power nor data running, so it does not matter anymore, you pick one | 19:28 |
| trijntje | bynarie, yeah, I know how you feel, but still, we try to be nice ;) | 19:29 |
| bynarie | i know you are right | 19:29 |
| jhutchins_wk | OerHeks: Or if it's turned on, but the filesystem is not mounted, then there's nothing to be safe. | 19:29 |
| bynarie | my apologies | 19:29 |
| Guest39303 | OerHeks: the phone is stillc hargeing even thugh it is off, also when i turned it off, ubuntu said ether disconnected or something like that | 19:30 |
| jhutchins_wk | Seriously, this is straight out of Marathon Man (see clip above). | 19:30 |
| Guest39303 | OerHeks: the phone is still chargeing | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | jhutchins_wk, i doubt it, usb is designed to pull out, power pinns are shorter than the data pinns | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | Guest39303, you have been answered enough now. | 19:31 |
| Guest39303 | OerHeks: you see i plan to connect my phone to the computer many many times, therefore i want a safe way of removing it many many times | 19:31 |
| l0rdn1x | Guest39303: http://www.dummies.com/how-to/computers-software/Computers-For-Seniors/Computer-Basics.html | 19:32 |

| SonikkuAmerica | Apply scissor blade to cord, weld it back together. Repeat. | 19:32 |
| Guest39303 | l0rdn1x: :P | 19:32 |
| Guest75561 | hey wats up | 19:32 |
| Guest39303 | jhutchins_wk: but i am the only one who cares about their phone | 19:32 |
| Guest39303 | anyway thanks for all the half answers, it seems most people do not know the answer to 100% certainty bye | 19:33 |
| bynarie | jhutchins_wk, i just watched that clip LOL. Its straight out of the movie hahaha | 19:33 |
| bynarie | Is it safe? | 19:33 |
| jhutchins_wk | Sigh. I'm ignorant, I adamantly want to remain ignorant, but I want you to tell me how to do someting that basically isn't even a thing because I'm ignorant. | 19:34 |

| georgep | I have a question about copying files over SSH. I'm using gigolo to mount a network share using ubuntu. All works well, but when I copy a file to the remote server, the file permissions are Owner can view/modify, group & other are always forbidden. So I have to change permissions each time. Is there a way I can copy files over ssh and preserve permissions? Thanks | 19:38 |
| cronser | how can i place the value of an empty string in a var in a bash script? | 19:38 |

| melio | is there a fix for lockups that require standby mode return to fix | 19:39 |
| studentttu | how do I enable dual boot? | 19:40 |
| melio | after i updated, my system randomly locks | 19:40 |
| bynarie | studentttu, sudo update-grub | 19:40 |

| bynarie | it will find your windows boot image and add it to grub menu | 19:40 |
| studentttu | bynarie: I did it however it didnt find windows | 19:41 |

| bynarie | dam it! | 19:43 |
| bynarie | did you have to change any bios settings like legacy boot? | 19:43 |
| bynarie | or uefi with csm | 19:43 |
| jhutchins_wk | georgep: No idea how to control what gigolo does, but if you copy the files with scp or rsync you can preserve the ownership & permission. | 19:43 |
| grosjean | /close/close | 19:44 |
| grosjean | fail | 19:44 |
| studentttu | bynarie: i havent touched bios in months | 19:44 |
| jhutchins_wk | georgep: Be aware that the user ID is numeric, and unless the remote system has the same user ID number it'll end up belonging to whatever user is mapped to that number. | 19:44 |
| bynarie | ok.. | 19:44 |
| bynarie | where did you install the bootloader? | 19:44 |
| georgep | jhutchins_wk, interesting thanks, I'll have a look at the gigolo documentation | 19:44 |
| bynarie | on //sda? | 19:44 |
| studentttu | bynarie: do u mean when i partitioned | 19:45 |
| bynarie | yep | 19:45 |
| georgep | jhutchins_wk, re user ID, didn't realise that, thanks. | 19:45 |

| studentttu | that is the ntfs | 19:46 |
| bynarie | u didnt have to change anything with the windows mount point | 19:46 |
| jhutchins_wk | georgep: Note that that's the default for tar as well, you usually have to chown the extracted files. | 19:47 |

| celroc | studentttu: The Windows partition still has its data on it as far as you know, right? You didn't choose to have it reformatted during the install, I mean? | 19:54 |
| hardtail | oerheks i have been following this http://www.jfwhome.com/2014/03/07/perfect-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-asus-transformer-book-t100/ but i am having a hell of a time..now my windows partition is gone i think so i have a tablet with no os | 19:54 |
| studentttu | celroc: yea it has the data | 19:54 |
| OerHeks | hardtail, you might want to seek help in #ubuntu-touch too | 19:55 |
| celroc | studentttu: Okay, that's a good sign. And when you reboot, there just isn't an option to boot to Windows, right? Just the Ubuntu options? | 19:55 |
| studentttu | celroc: it just boots straight to ubuntu | 19:55 |
| studentttu | before it boot straight to windows | 19:55 |
| bynarie | he modified the mount point of windows when he was installing ubuntu celroc | 19:56 |
| SonikkuAmerica | studentttu: Does anything happen when you mash the left SHIFT key when start your computer? | 19:56 |
| celroc | studentttu: Hmm. Okay, I'll assume that it somehow missed seeing that you had a Windows install on there and thinks Ubuntu is the only OS, thus is booting to it by default. Are you comfortable with using a few terminal commands? | 19:57 |
| studentttu | celroc: yeah | 19:57 |
| bynarie | celroc, we already tried update-grub | 19:57 |
| celroc | bynarie: Oh. Hmm... you know, that shouldn't really cause a boot issue, though. That's strange | 19:57 |
| celroc | Oh. Well, that's what I was about to suggest. Hmph. | 19:57 |
| bynarie | i know lol | 19:58 |
| celroc | Let's see.... hold on just one second and I'll fire up a VM I got. Let's see if maybe we can make you a custom grub entry to boot it from :-) | 19:58 |
| studentttu | okay | 19:59 |
| bynarie | let me check my grub conf too | 19:59 |
| bynarie | nm it wouldnt help | 19:59 |

| crazypyro | studentttu: Did you partition over the existing windows partition at all? | 20:04 |
| studentttu | crazypyro: I had one partition 512gb, then I partioned it to 400gb which I left for windows, and installed ubuntu to 100gb partition which I put as ext4, I also made a 2gb swap | 20:05 |
| bynarie | you resized the partition tho right? | 20:05 |
| bynarie | not deleted it | 20:05 |
| neldogz | Hi all, I have noticed intermittent issues mounting my partitions specified in the /etc/fstab file during bootup on a Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS system. It first started with issues mounting the encrypted swap which i replaced with an unencrypted swap partition and now bootup is complaining about an NTFS partition. The error is "The disk drive for /media/user1/partition1 is not ready or not present: Continue to wait, or press S to skip mounting o | 20:05 |
| neldogz | r M for manual recovery. | 20:05 |
| neldogz | This is my fstab: /dev/dm-1 /media/user1/partition1 ntfs defaults 0 0 | 20:05 |
| studentttu | yes | 20:05 |
| bynarie | k | 20:06 |
| studentttu | resized, and didnt format | 20:06 |
| bynarie | just makin sure | 20:06 |
| studentttu | yeah | 20:06 |
| crazypyro | studentttu: You could've easily messed up the existing windows partition if you didn't shrink it properly before re-partitioning.... | 20:06 |
| crazypyro | oh ok | 20:06 |
| celroc | studentttu: Okay, think I found something that might help :-) http://askubuntu.com/questions/22629/add-windows-7-to-boot-menu and then scroll down to the guy that answered. This should show how to make a custom entry for Windows in GRUB (You may need to change the numbers a little to suit your formatting) and then run sudo update-grub to apply your changes | 20:06 |
| studentttu | celroc: okay Ill try | 20:07 |
| === Guest1382 is now known as NaStYdoG | ||
| studentttu | celroc: yeah I can see my windows partition still, and access the files but i just cant boot to windows | 20:07 |
| studentttu | ill try that | 20:07 |
| crazypyro | studentttu: If you have your windows disk, just fixmbr on recovery disk | 20:07 |
| crazypyro | put in recovery, get to command prompt, bootrec.exe /fixboot , bootrec.exe /fixmbr | 20:08 |
| studentttu | crazypyro: will it not destroy my ubuntu boot then? | 20:08 |
| crazypyro | those 2 should make you boot into windows, then you can set up your mbr with a windows program. | 20:08 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest67283 | ||
| rh1n0 | anything wrong with removing (or otherwise disabling) the default 'ubuntu' user in cloud environments? (i.e. amazon) | 20:08 |
| celroc | crazypyro: Can you set up the MBR easily to boot Linux from Windows? I was under the impression it was better to let GRUB handle that | 20:09 |
| rh1n0 | and replacing with it a different user account i mean | 20:09 |
| crazypyro | How I did it was I fixed my mbr/boot and then installed a bootloader program (its only for windows, forgot which one, similar to grub) that is before grub | 20:09 |
| crazypyro | so I have my windows bootloader program where I can select ubuntu or windows | 20:09 |
| crazypyro | then if I select ubuntu, I go to grub menu where I can select which ubuntu or even go back to windows. | 20:10 |
| === Guest67283 is now known as danielsv | ||
| crazypyro | probably unnecessary, but since I defualt to ubuntu, I like having the 2nd window just in case I miss switching to windows. | 20:10 |
| celroc | studentttu and crazypyro: You can pick whichever method that you prefer, although I have no experience with crazypyro's method. I do have to wonder if when an Ubuntu kernel upgrade happens, if it will overwrite the Windows bootloader again when it runs update-grub, which might make problems later | 20:11 |
| studentttu | celroc: how did I access the etc place | 20:11 |
| studentttu | I havent used ubuntu for a while | 20:11 |
| studentttu | this place/etc/grub.d/40_custom | 20:12 |
| celroc | studentttu: As the root user :-D here, this should be a quick way to edit the file listed in the guide. In a terminal, run gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 20:12 |
| celroc | studentttu: That'll open an appropriately privileged text editor with the file you need, by the way :-) | 20:13 |
| crazypyro | Wish I could find the program I used. It was a graphical interface on windows, let you set default and names and took like 1-2 mins to fix the mbr | 20:13 |
| studentttu | celroc: yeah ill aptget it first | 20:13 |
| studentttu | celroc: hmm i just have exec tail in there | 20:14 |
| studentttu | celroc: should I replace it with that copy paste or add it? | 20:14 |
| lorfds | if i have a variable in bash, how do i put this into a file | 20:14 |
| crazypyro | oh yeah, it was EasyBCD | 20:14 |
| lorfds | cat $var > myfile.txt | 20:15 |
| ki7mt | +1 works pretty slick | 20:15 |
| lorfds | is that correct? | 20:15 |
| celroc | studentttu: Don't remove that part. You'll want to add the part in the guide while still having the exec tail part | 20:15 |
| celroc | studentttu: Let me double-check really quick if the exec tail is supposed to come before or after the entry | 20:15 |
| crazypyro | studentttu: Okay, so just fixmbr and fixboot and then install EasyBCD on windows imo, especially if you aren't proficient with unix cl tools | 20:15 |
| ki7mt | crazypyro, EasyBCD boot screen is ugly, but I use it for allot of things on multi-boot systems, and it's fairly robust. | 20:16 |
| celroc | studentttu: Okay, it should go after the exec tail line and comments. :-) | 20:16 |
| crazypyro | ki7mt: Also simple as hell to setup | 20:16 |
| ki7mt | Yup | 20:16 |
| studentttu | crazypyro: okay, ill try this celroc method first if it works otherwise i will have to start looking for the win cd | 20:16 |
| celroc | The Celroc(R) Method :-D | 20:17 |
| studentttu | celroc: okay, I put my mount point as /windows does it affect this in anyway? this copypasta | 20:17 |
| studentttu | heh | 20:17 |
| studentttu | during the partition | 20:17 |
| celroc | studentttu: You didn't put that in the file you just edited, right? Just during the install earlier? | 20:18 |
| studentttu | celroc: yeah | 20:18 |
| studentttu | during install earlier | 20:18 |
| celroc | studentttu: Good. That won't affect this. All that really does is tells Ubuntu where to put your Windows files, should you want to access them while in the Ubuntu OS. They should show up in /windows, but it should have any affect on the issue you were currently having | 20:19 |
| celroc | studentttu: Now, be sure to save the file you just edited and close the editor. Once closed, run 'sudo update-grub' to apply your changes | 20:19 |
| Bashing-om | celroc studentttu // Might check -> df -h <- and see what the system sees for mount points ? | 20:19 |
| studentttu | celroc: Bashing-om yeah.. dev/sdb1 mounted on /windows | 20:20 |
| celroc | Bashing-om: That would certainly work, but he seems to be having an issue with the grub bootloader not showing a Windows entry. It's more a grub issue than a mount-point issue, I'd say | 20:20 |
| bynarie | that doesnt sound right | 20:21 |
| bynarie | windows was installed first.. shouldnt it be on /sda1 | 20:21 |
| celroc | Bashing-om: OH! You're right, though, we might need that partition number later for the bootloader | 20:21 |
| bynarie | escepcially if you only have 1 drive | 20:21 |
| studentttu | celroc: bynarie i have ubuntu in sdb6 and windows in sdb1 | 20:21 |
| Bashing-om | celroc: Just think'n also UUID mapping ?? | 20:21 |
| bynarie | ok | 20:22 |
| studentttu | celroc: i guess i should change menuentry then since its sda1 | 20:22 |
| bynarie | did you get it fixed yet? | 20:22 |
| studentttu | not yet | 20:22 |
| bynarie | dam! | 20:22 |
| studentttu | celroc: i change the copypasta to dev/sdb1 and try if it works | 20:22 |
| celroc | studentttu: How many hard disks do you have in your system, by the way? I might have made a mistake | 20:23 |
| bynarie | studentttu, can you pastebin your /etc/default/grub plz? | 20:23 |
| studentttu | I used to have 3 but only 1 now | 20:23 |
| VBlizzard | so,I am trying to install Ubuntu, yet I am getting the error 'fast tsc calibration failed' | 20:24 |
| bynarie | VBlizzard, does it still boot? | 20:24 |
| studentttu | bynarie: pastebin.com/qHvmPNjz | 20:24 |
| bynarie | i get that error everytime but it still boots fine for me | 20:24 |
| celroc | studentttu: Hmm... Only one disk. It should show up as /dev/sda, not /dev/sdb. That's very strange. The copy/paste might still work, but it looks like bynarie and Bashing-om have some recommendations, too. This could be going a little out of my area of expertise, so they might give better advice than me | 20:25 |
| Bashing-om | celroc: Hey, I am just along for the ride ! .. Grub booting is a particular interest of mine . | 20:26 |
| compdoc | no free rides | 20:27 |
| bynarie | celroc, if he HAD 3 disks and took 2 out, i dont think it would change to sda.. it would still be sdb until he completely deleted partition and reformatted | 20:27 |
| celroc | Bashing-om: Yeah, bootloaders are cruel beasts, aren't they? So hard to tame | 20:27 |
| studentttu | celroc: okay I changed the sdb1 and saved, updated grub but it just straight booted to windows. It didnt locate any windows during update-grub either, only memtest lol | 20:27 |
| VBlizzard | bynarie, it gets to the install screen, then says the error. | 20:27 |
| Bashing-om | compdoc: :) .. | 20:27 |
| celroc | studentttu: It... booted straight to Windows? | 20:27 |
| studentttu | ubuntu | 20:28 |
| studentttu | sorry | 20:28 |
| studentttu | :s | 20:28 |
| bynarie | dam! | 20:28 |
| bynarie | this is becoming a tough one | 20:28 |
| studentttu | Maybe I should fix the boot with windows disc and reinstall ubuntu? | 20:28 |
| celroc | studentttu: Hmph. I think bynarie was hitting the nail on the head with that other file. Would you mind if we tried one more thing? | 20:29 |
| Bashing-om | celroc: It is them behind-the-scene-files that are parsed by the kernel that gets me ! .. one of these days I am going to have to "read the code" . | 20:29 |
| bynarie | studentttu, have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 20:29 |
| studentttu | celroc: i dont mind | 20:29 |
| bynarie | studentttu, use that link i provided you | 20:30 |
| studentttu | bynarie: i have not | 20:30 |
| bynarie | try that | 20:30 |
| bynarie | sounds like it might be your answer | 20:30 |
| hardtail | can't use this web chat anymore brb | 20:30 |
| celroc | studentttu: okay, please run 'gksudo /etc/default/grub" and then look for a line that says something like GRUB_TIMEOUT=(number) . | 20:31 |
| VBlizzard | the last line of the error is '[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! | 20:31 |
| VBlizzard | ' | 20:31 |
| bynarie | studentttu, if you can burn a CD in ubuntu, you should be able to use the boot repair | 20:31 |
| bynarie | i looked into it, looks like it might work perfectly for you | 20:31 |
| givello | Hey there, I was around yesterday night for an issue I had with my xorg not booting up | 20:34 |
| studentttu | celroc: http://pastebin.com/qHvmPNjz | 20:34 |
| jbernal0019 | babymri | 20:35 |
| VBlizzard | well,I can't even install Ubuntu. | 20:35 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay ill try | 20:35 |
| celroc | studentttu: Oh, I see it's already set. Hmm.... | 20:35 |
| givello | not sure if the guys who helped me out are still around but Id like to thank them although I ended up f-ing it up even more, which explain I didnt connect back | 20:35 |
| chick_ | Hi Im using ubuntu 14 and my top bar has disappeared how can i bring it up | 20:35 |
| celroc | studentttu: Yeah, you might be better off with the bynarie(R) method instead | 20:35 |
| neldogz | Hi all, I have noticed intermittent issues mounting my partitions specified in the /etc/fstab file during bootup on a Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS system. It first started with issues mounting the encrypted swap which i replaced with an unencrypted swap partition and now bootup is complaining about an NTFS partition. The error is "The disk drive for /media/user1/partition1 is not ready or not present: Continue to wait, or press S to skip mounting o | 20:36 |
| neldogz | r M for manual recovery. | 20:36 |
| bynarie | its about 500-600mb iso file, you just burn it and boot into it | 20:36 |
| studentttu | celroc: heh :D im downloading the program now, but how do I burn it lol | 20:36 |
| bynarie | try it man | 20:36 |
| bynarie | just right click iso file | 20:36 |
| bynarie | select burn to cd/dvd | 20:36 |
| studentttu | ok | 20:36 |
| studentttu | okay thats simple | 20:36 |
| Finetundra | i need a driver for a printer/scanner combo. where would i find it? | 20:36 |
| bynarie | studentttu, or it will say open with "fxburn" or w/e burning software you have | 20:37 |
| givello | So here is my question for tonight is the following: what could be the reason for/ how do I diagnose a purple static screen on ubuntu startup | 20:37 |
| bynarie | or try double clicking it and see it burning software opens up | 20:37 |
| givello | not static noise, just the purple background of ubuntu | 20:37 |
| Finetundra | givello, how long does the problem last and at what point during startup does it occur? | 20:38 |
| chick_ | Hi Im using ubuntu 14 and my top bar has disappeared I cant see my notifications like network,power status and others how can i bring it up please | 20:40 |
| AlexPortable | I have a file where I need to scrap 24 lines of code from, how do I do this? | 20:40 |
| AlexPortable | Automated i mean | 20:40 |
| givello | Finetundra: forever, as in, I didnt see anything happenning during the different lengths of time I waited | 20:41 |
| givello | Finetundra: it occurs right after grub | 20:41 |
| givello | When I select ubuntu | 20:41 |
| Finetundra | givello, so it just freezes there? | 20:41 |
| givello | Finetundra: yup | 20:42 |
| givello | Im currently in a liveusb on said computer | 20:42 |
| Finetundra | givello, have you ever been able to get past it? | 20:42 |
| Finetundra | even briefly? | 20:43 |
| givello | Finetundra: well, I had a functionning system two days ago | 20:43 |
| givello | Finetundra: apart from that, no | 20:43 |
| Bashing-om | VBlizzard: Can you boot the liveDVD(USB) to "try ubuntu" mode ? | 20:43 |
| === alfonso is now known as Guest60385 | ||
| === Gibletz is now known as Gibbletz | ||
| givello | I have access to the SSD from that liveusb, but Im not sure if the last syslog entries date from my chroot or if I rebooted since | 20:44 |
| givello | Or if chroot uses syslog from the place I chrooted in or not | 20:44 |
| bynarie | studentttu, whats ur status | 20:44 |
| studentttu | bynarie: burning right now | 20:44 |
| hroi | hi | 20:45 |
| hroi | I have a touch screen laptop | 20:45 |
| hroi | I guess we know what Im going to say next | 20:45 |
| hroi | I have a problem with my touchpad | 20:45 |
| hroi | I can tell from many forums that my problem is widespread | 20:46 |
| bynarie | k | 20:46 |
| bynarie | when you reboot make sure you do boot from the CD | 20:46 |
| bynarie | =] | 20:46 |
| hroi | but I havent been able to find a workaround that works for me | 20:46 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Have you tried booting to terminal in the install, and from terminal activating the GUI ? | 20:46 |
| VBlizzard | Bashing-om, I'm using an .iso file. | 20:46 |
| hroi | -- not sure if ubuntu is for laptop anyway | 20:46 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I cant reach that point | 20:47 |
| givello | Bashing-om: the system is completly unresponsive once I pass the grub | 20:47 |
| studentttu | bynarie: so I just reboot with the disc now right? | 20:47 |
| givello | Bashing-om: then again, maybe you mean changing something from the boot line in grub? | 20:47 |
| bynarie | VBlizzard, i run ubuntu on 2 laptops just fine | 20:47 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Try: boot to grub menu, 'e' key for edit mode, replace "quiet splash" with the term text, ctrl+x to boot to a terminal. Can do ? | 20:48 |
| dbugger | Hello | 20:48 |
| bynarie | yes sir.. u might have to press like f11 or f12 to bring up boot menu | 20:48 |
| bynarie | but it might auto boot from CD | 20:48 |
| bynarie | give it a try | 20:48 |
| hroi | bynarie, well laptops older than 2 years maybe | 20:49 |
| givello | Bashing-om: can do, I actually tried deleting quiet splash before, but to no avail | 20:49 |
| givello | so I need to add text | 20:49 |
| hardtail | finally got a proper irc client | 20:49 |
| givello | Ill hopefully be back in a few minutes | 20:49 |
| hroi | bynarie, this is probably more of a kernel issue -- why most distros dont catch up att all in the first few years of a new device | 20:49 |
| VBlizzard | bynarie, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a VM. | 20:49 |
| givello | If Im not, you can call 911 | 20:49 |
| === Daryl is now known as Guest39566 | ||
| hardtail | does anyone here have an asus t100? | 20:50 |
| bynarie | yea | 20:50 |
| hroi | bynarie, I would never have bought this laptop BTW, just my work IT seems very keen on latest crap. | 20:50 |
| Bashing-om | givello: As you can get to a terminal, then system is intact. maybe just a unity issue ? What results when booted to TTY1 -> sudo service lightdm start <- assuming lightdm is your DM . | 20:50 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay its booting into Lubuntu 13.04 now. I hope it doesnt cause a problem considering I had 14.04 | 20:50 |
| Apachez | whats the current status of mounting ssd with discard flag to handle trim? some claim its not recommended, the recommended method is instead to cron fstrim - is this still a valid claim? | 20:50 |
| studentttu | ubuntu | 20:50 |
| bynarie | VBlizzard, i cant get ubuntu to work in VM either | 20:50 |
| bekks | bynarie: Why not? | 20:51 |
| bynarie | dunno... never has | 20:51 |
| bynarie | it just doesnt boot up | 20:51 |
| bekks | For me it always does. | 20:51 |
| bynarie | it gets stuck on the purple background and does nothing | 20:51 |
| bekks | bynarie: Just try using the nomodeset kernel option when booting. | 20:52 |
| studentttu | bynarie: so I ll just do the recommended repair | 20:52 |
| bynarie | studentttu, yes try that | 20:52 |
| givello | Back | 20:52 |
| VBlizzard | so, I'm trying to learn bash. | 20:52 |
| VBlizzard | :L | 20:52 |
| givello | Didn4t zork | 20:52 |
| givello | Didnt work sorry | 20:53 |
| givello | damn qwerty | 20:53 |
| Bashing-om | studentttu: bynarie // "booting into Lubuntu 13.04" There is no software repository available for EOL release . | 20:53 |
| givello | So I still experience that lovely purple hue | 20:53 |
| Bashing-om | givello: As you can get to a terminal, then system is intact. maybe just a unity issue ? What results when booted to TTY1 -> sudo service lightdm start <- assuming lightdm is your DM . | 20:53 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I cant, Im afraid | 20:54 |
| givello | the magic system rescue keys dont even work from the point I press enter on the ubuntu choie | 20:54 |
| givello | choice | 20:54 |
| givello | I do not get to a terminal | 20:54 |
| bynarie | studentttu, whats happenin on there | 20:54 |
| Bashing-om | givello: In that case, my suggestion, for a quicker fix, take the nuclear solution and (RE-)install. | 20:55 |
| givello | Bashing-om: Id love to avoid that though | 20:55 |
| givello | Bashing-om: as I said before, a chroot into that drive works fine | 20:55 |
| givello | couldnt I fix it from there? | 20:55 |
| VBlizzard | so, there is no way to install Ubuntu on VM? | 20:55 |
| studentttu | bynarie: did the repair biw u gave grub bootloader | 20:56 |
| studentttu | bynarie: did the repair now i have grub bootload, I have 2 windows for some reason, lemme see if it boots lol | 20:56 |
| Bashing-om | givello: In that case, roll up sleeves, and go to work and find out why .. boot the liveDVD and run file system checks, IF file system checks are good, next make sure the package manager is in a happy state. | 20:56 |
| bynarie | k | 20:56 |
| studentttu | bynarie: I wonder if the other one is because of the copapasta i made | 20:56 |
| givello | its a liveusb | 20:56 |
| givello | but okay | 20:56 |
| givello | Bashing-om: though both those things are done | 20:56 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I even updated the system | 20:57 |
| bynarie | studentttu, if we can get you into windows then we have been successful! | 20:57 |
| givello | Bashing-om: by checking the file system I guess you mean runnning fsck | 20:57 |
| givello | That is done | 20:57 |
| === ross`_ is now known as ross` | ||
| Bashing-om | givello: IF the file system checks are good, and the system is up-to-date; I can concieve of now reason one should not be able to boot to terminal. As otherwise, grub would scream and holler. | 20:58 |
| givello | Sorry for the lack of ' before, just finally found the key :D | 20:58 |
| Bashing-om | now/no* | 20:58 |
| givello | Bashing-om: its indeed very weird | 20:58 |
| hardtail | Does anyone know why this returns an error? "linux (hd2,gpt5)/boot/vmlinuz-3.13-xxxx root=/dev/mmcblk0p5 video=VGA-1:1368x768e reboot=pci,force" | 20:59 |
| VBlizzard | . | 20:59 |
| VBlizzard | so, yeah, what do I do? | 20:59 |
| givello | I didn't check recently, but even using the repair option on the boot menu freezes the computer | 20:59 |
| givello | well, used to a few hours ago | 20:59 |
| bynarie | studentttu, :::cross fingers::: | 21:00 |
| studentttu | bynarie: :D:D:D | 21:00 |
| studentttu | bynarie: YAYYY it worked :D:D thanks | 21:00 |
| studentttu | haha | 21:00 |
| Bashing-om | givello: So, booting the install, you get to grub boot menu ? right ? . what kernel is shown with an 'asterisk' on the left ? | 21:00 |
| studentttu | bynarie: thanks bro u will have to help me with one more thing though | 21:00 |
| studentttu | bynarie: the swap partition thing lol | 21:00 |
| givello | Bashing-om: booting on the install I get four options if my memory serves me right | 21:00 |
| givello | Bashing-om: in the grub menu | 21:01 |
| vani_ | I want to have the /dev/sda6 as swap space. I encrypted it with luks and a pass key. However when I try to luksOpen(sudo cryptsetup --verbose --key-file /etc/keys/sda6_crypt luksOpen /dev/sda6 sda6_crypt) I get Failed to open key file. I created the keyfile using the command sudo dd if=/dev/random of=/etc/keys/sda6_key bs=1 count=32 Any help ? | 21:01 |
| givello | first is ubuntu, second more ubuntu options, third is system configuration, which takes me to uefi after a reboot | 21:01 |
| givello | that makes it three, mea culpa | 21:01 |
| givello | choosing the more ubuntu options thingy leads me to a number or numbered kernel releases | 21:02 |
| jjavaholic | why do I have to gksudo everytime plug in and out a USB pendrive? | 21:02 |
| givello | and corresponding repair options | 21:02 |
| studentttu | bynarie: so how did I increase the swap partition with gparted? or what was it? | 21:02 |
| v_ | in ubuntu default terminal, how can I remove the alt+1 and alt+2 key to swap between terminal tabs and do irssi window swap instead | 21:02 |
| givello | choosing any of the regular kernels doesn't have any different effect on the matter | 21:02 |
| bynarie | yea run gparted from command line | 21:02 |
| bynarie | im so glad it worked man | 21:03 |
| bynarie | !!! | 21:03 |
| givello | and choosing any of the repair options leads me to that grub-like, frozen screen of repair options | 21:03 |
| Bashing-om | givello: UEFI is - to be honest - out of my sphere of experience, is it that you have EFI boot partition, and have now added boot code to the MBR ? | 21:03 |
| studentttu | bynarie: me too thanks hahah | 21:04 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I didn't consider the possibility of a UEFI issue | 21:04 |
| v_ | oh lol found | 21:04 |
| studentttu | bynarie: hmmm I cant run gparted it says root privileges are requires. how did I login as root? | 21:04 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I'm not sure how I'd check for such a mistake | 21:04 |
| bynarie | welcome | 21:04 |
| bynarie | sudo gparted | 21:04 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I'm also not sure how it could have happened but let's not take any risk | 21:04 |
| studentttu | bynarie: okay im here what next? | 21:05 |
| bynarie | resize the swap partition | 21:05 |
| Blizzy | so, if I can't install Ubuntu on VM, should I try Debian? | 21:05 |
| bynarie | right click on it, swapoff, then resize | 21:05 |
| bynarie | thn right click, swpon | 21:05 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Have you at any time RE-installed grub ? and does termianl command -> sudo parted -l <- get spastic ? | 21:06 |
| hardtail | does anyone know why linux (hd2,gpt5)/boot/vmlinuz-3.13-xxxx root=/dev/mmcblk0p5 video=VGA-1:1368x768e reboot=pci,force returns error: missing ) symbol? | 21:06 |
| studentttu | bynarie: so I should make it a little bit bigger than my ram? | 21:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I believe I haven't no | 21:06 |
| kahtahs | bynarie: you should use gksudo instead of sudo for graphical apps | 21:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I'm not sure what you mean by get spastic | 21:06 |
| bynarie | if you want to | 21:06 |
| bekks | hardtail: Because there is a ) missing somewhere in your actual line | 21:07 |

| v_ | I switched to classic ubuntu menus by starting compiz. My alt+tab doesn't switch between apps. Is this normal? | 21:11 |

| bekks | v_: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome | 21:11 |
| studentttu | bynarie: because i dont have " freespace" | 21:12 |

| studentttu | bynarie: i have 5gigs freespace now but swap doesnt let me increase the size | 21:26 |
| bynarie | then im not sure | 21:26 |
| Finetundra | givello, did you get everything sorted out? | 21:26 |
| givello | Bashing-om: yes, but I figured out the running parted part, I can indeed run it from the liveusb as it lists from all block devices. here is what it looks like | 21:27 |
| studentttu | bynarie: hmm i can make it as new partition. should i just create as linux-swap? | 21:27 |
| Bashing-om | givello: "parted -l" if you are presently in the chroot . yes ( elevated privileges are not then required as in the CHroot "you" are root) . | 21:27 |
| studentttu | bynarie: or should I delete linux-swap first and make the whole thing as linux-swap | 21:27 |

| bynarie | then turn swapon | 21:29 |

| givello | Bashing-om: after much fiddling I wound up making things worse, or they might have gotten worse on their own. | 21:32 |
| bynarie | 2 menu entries for windows i mean | 21:32 |
| givello | Bashing-om: additionally to the current situation, I couldn't boot in any liveusb | 21:33 |
| studentttu | bynarie: im unable to delete it because my swap is sdb5 and ubuntu in sdb6, and it says i have to unmount higher than sdb5 but i cant unmount 6 | 21:33 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Boot the install to the grub boot menu, with that fist kernel entry as default press the 'e' key -> boot parameters screen, down toward the bottom of the screen is the boot command line starting with "linuz" containing 'quiet splash' . do you see this ? | 21:33 |
| studentttu | bynarie: do u think its okay just to make the unallocated space as a second linux-swap | 21:33 |
| bynarie | yea try it | 21:33 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I fixed that issue by figuring out that the DVI port on my screen was the issue as trying DVI on another screen worked, and trying VGA on that screen with the DVI port on the card and a converter worked | 21:33 |
| slevin | I dont understand nothig | 21:34 |
| givello | Bashing-om: so here where we're at | 21:34 |
| studentttu | bynarie: now it found windows through update-grub too | 21:34 |
| bynarie | im kind of out of options man my brain has reached its limit for the day | 21:34 |
| bynarie | awesome | 21:34 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I already tried switching quiet splash with text | 21:34 |
| givello | Bashing-om: still this lovely purple hue | 21:34 |
| slevin | do you speak italian? | 21:35 |
| studentttu | bynarie: hmm the new linux swap is not visible underl dev sdb2 tree. Under sdb2 i have linux swap sdb5 and sdb6 which is ubuntu | 21:35 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I should add that I'm still in a liveusb on the target computer, so any testing will mean disconnection from irc and reboot and reinstall or irssi | 21:36 |
| studentttu | does it matter? | 21:36 |
| givello | of | 21:36 |
| squinty | studentttu: might want to read gparted docs which give good examples/explantions http://gparted.org/display-doc.php?name=help-manual | 21:36 |
| Finetundra | while we're on the topic of grub, does anyone know how to blindly pass through it? | 21:37 |
| kojak_ | What would this command do if OpenJDK 7 is installed, but OpenJDK 6 isn't? | 21:37 |

| Bashing-om | givello: so, we are looking at the fact that when the kernel is loaded a suitable video driver is not ? - you do have graphics up to the time that the login screen is displayed ? | 21:38 |
| drehdz | testing | 21:39 |
| givello | Bashing-om: well, its not a login screen. More like the purple background that already exists for grub and the loading screen. | 21:39 |
| agliodbs | Levono Carbon vs. Asus Zenbook. Which makes the better Ubuntu machine? | 21:39 |
| squinty | Finetundra: you should be able to determine a solution by reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Setup#Configuring_GRUB_2 | 21:39 |
| givello | Bashing-om: and that plain purple background is the only thing I see from the moment I press enter in the grub and until my computer immediately freezes on it | 21:40 |
| bynarie | anyone in here running wayland/weston? | 21:40 |
| squinty | !anyone > bynarie | 21:40 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Try'n to think this through, as to exactly at what point the grpahics layer is failing . So, when you boot you do not get to see the GUI login screen ? | 21:41 |
| givello | Bashing-om: no, only purple from grub on | 21:41 |
| givello | Bashing-om: let me try and fetch the last kernel logs, if any were generated when I tried the text tip | 21:42 |
| bynarie | huh? | 21:42 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Then, yeah, I would say X is not starting .. gimme a bit to consider what we should do in this case. | 21:42 |
| Finetundra | squinty, i meant the question in the sense that GRUB is loading at a weird resolution that none of my monitors can support or that the integrated graphics can't do anything with | 21:43 |
| squinty | bynarie: polls are conducted in other relevant channels. better to just ask/state your exact problem rather than "does anyone...." :) | 21:43 |

| studentttu | how did I get 144Hz running in ubuntu, I have only 60hz now apparently | 21:44 |
| studentttu | bynarie: I couldnt get it to move under the ubuntu tree, so ... maybe 2gb is enough lol | 21:44 |
| bynarie | i personally think it is | 21:45 |
| === alessandro is now known as Guest78670 | ||
| bynarie | but thats my opinion | 21:45 |

| studentttu | bynarie: thanks again for your help | 21:46 |
| givello | Bashing-om: if X wasn't starting, why wouldn't I be thrown back to a terminal, as I used to at the beginning of this whole ordeal> | 21:46 |
| crazypyro | Does anyone have any idea where the wakeup timer default duration for usb autosuspend gets set? | 21:46 |
| givello | ? | 21:46 |
| bynarie | no problem! | 21:46 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I can't find any relevant log | 21:47 |
| givello | Bashing-om: either the date is wrong or the syslog is from yesterday | 21:47 |
| Bashing-om | givello: I look at it like we can not even get to a terminal, and file system checks are good, and system is updated .. Must be a problem in the xserver layer . | 21:48 |
| givello | Bashing-om: and the X log refers to my attempt to start X in a chroot, which failed | 21:48 |
| Bashing-om | givello: YUK, do I understand that you can not do a full CHange root from the liveUSB into the install ? | 21:49 |
| givello | Bashing-om: well, I may have screwed something up | 21:49 |
| givello | Bashing-om: let me try right away | 21:49 |

| studentttu | xrandr --refresh 144 doesnt work | 21:50 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I see conflicting info online, do you have any reference regarding chroots? | 21:51 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest71320 | ||
| squinty | Finetundra: might want to explore using LILO rather than Grub2. Last time I used it was years ago now so am not familiar with it's "in's 'n outs" these days...... | 21:52 |
| givello | Bashing-om: what is this dbootstrap about? I thought you only needed chroot | 21:52 |
| squinty | Finetundra: http://lilo.alioth.debian.org/ | 21:52 |
| Finetundra | squinty, how would i go about installing that? | 21:54 |
| squinty | Finetundra: it's in the default repo's. Read up on it first might be a good idea though.. | 21:56 |

| studentttu | Hello, is it possible for me to have 144Hz screen refresh rate in ubuntu? I have a 144hz screen running at 60hz. | 21:57 |
| Bashing-om | givello: debootstrap is going a level deeper than we will ever have a need to go to . | 21:58 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I'll try that | 22:03 |
| givello | Hang on | 22:03 |
| Finetundra | squinty, since you said it's in the offical repos, install should just 'sudo apt-get install lilo' right? | 22:03 |
| squinty | Finetundra: yes | 22:04 |
| Finetundra | cool | 22:04 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Make SURE that networking workins in this chraoot IF we are going to be messing about with system files; Once the chroot is in effect what returns from terminal command -> ping -c3 google.com <- ? Make sure we do have network ability ! | 22:04 |
| squinty | studentttu: from a quick google, I see that some reported success by using 120Hz instead of the full 144Hz refresh rate. | 22:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: did you mean pts on the corresponging line? | 22:06 |
| givello | at the end | 22:06 |
| studentttu | squinty: how did they get 120hz? | 22:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: from experience for network I'll have to hard code the resolv.conf file but I'll make sure it does | 22:07 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: what video card do you have | 22:07 |
| IslandUsurper | in gufw, if a line in the listening report is red, that means any connection to that port is blocked, right? | 22:07 |
| Bashing-om | givello: "sudo umount /mnt/dev/pts" is the correct line /// ?? | 22:07 |
| givello | Bashing-om: no, I meant sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pt | 22:07 |
| givello | I believe it's missing an s | 22:07 |
| Finetundra | what DE has the lowest requirements | 22:08 |
| Finetundra | ? | 22:08 |
| Bashing-om | givello: No on hard coding ! this line " sudo mount --bind /run /mnt/run " will take care of the missing symlinks . | 22:08 |
| studentttu | Ben64: geforce 780ti | 22:09 |
| Bashing-om | givello: sheesshh .. should be " sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts " .. | 22:09 |

| givello | Bashing-om: indeed, it worked | 22:10 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: nvidia binary drivers? | 22:10 |
| k1l | Finetundra: (from the big ones. there are a lot more minimal ones) | 22:10 |
| givello | Bashing-om: starting X with sudo startx -- :0 doesn't quite work, though, but the output is interesting | 22:10 |
| givello | Bashing-om: let me copy that over to you, I think we got it | 22:10 |
| EriC^^ | givello: i don't think you need sudo to startx | 22:11 |
| Scyzor | hi ppl :) | 22:11 |
| EriC^^ | that might actually cause issues | 22:11 |
| studentttu | Ben64: okay im downloading them. do you happend to know how to remove mouse acceleration? | 22:11 |
| Bashing-om | givello: NO ! startx is guaranteed to have problems unless the Environment is set up to ONLY accept that .. what DM are you running ? | 22:11 |
| Ben64 | startx isnt the right way to start x either | 22:11 |
| Scyzor | anyone can show me a good redhat help forum? | 22:11 |
| Finetundra | k1l, yeah I know for a fact that I'll need something alot more minimal. thanks though | 22:11 |
| k1l | i am quite sure to told him some days ago that startx is wrong on ubuntu | 22:11 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: don't download the drivers from nvidia | 22:12 |
| studentttu | Ben64: oh what then? | 22:12 |
| givello | EriC^^: alright | 22:12 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: use the addition drivers thing in the update manager | 22:12 |
| k1l | Scyzor: why would you ask that in a ubuntu support channel. this is just offtopic in here. | 22:12 |
| givello | Bashing-om: ok, I was using gdm but lightdm should also work | 22:12 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I'll need to kill X though first wait a sec | 22:12 |
| Scyzor | k1l dude, i'm a total n00b :P | 22:13 |

| Avic | anyone can tell me how i start kubunto desktop in my ubuntu server? | 22:13 |
| Scyzor | k1l well, not THAT n00b | 22:13 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: do you have a desktop manager? | 22:13 |
| k1l | Avic: are you sure you want a desktop running on your server? | 22:13 |
| Avic | i have kubuntu and freenx | 22:13 |
| Bashing-om | givello: It would sure be nice if you tell us up front in the ubuntu channel that you are using something other than default .. GDM IS NOT lightdm . | 22:13 |
| k1l | !alis > Scyzor | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Scyzor, please see my private message | 22:14 |
| givello | Bashing-om: my bad | 22:14 |

| Scyzor | k1l: tks | 22:15 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: do you have lightdm installed? | 22:15 |
| givello | k1l: you did indeed, sorry I forgot | 22:15 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: try sudo service lightdm start | 22:15 |
| Avic | no | 22:15 |
| vanizz_ | Can I update my cryptsetup from 1.6.1 to 1.6.6 ? | 22:15 |
| k1l | Avic: why do you want a desktop running on a server? | 22:15 |
| studentttu | Ben64: okay im reverting now | 22:15 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: install lightdm if you want | 22:15 |
| studentttu | Does anyone know how to remove mouse acceleration in ubuntu? | 22:15 |
| Bashing-om | givello: OK, we can live over it .. I can bet that as you have used "startx" that the permissions and access to /home are all meesed up . | 22:15 |
| k1l | givello: what is the issue now? | 22:15 |
| Avic | Eric^^: start: Job is already running: lightdm | 22:16 |
| givello | k1l: a lot of stuff haha | 22:16 |
| vanizz_ | service ligthdm start | 22:16 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: ok, what does the screen show? try sudo service lightdm restart | 22:16 |
| givello | Bashing-om: sorry about that, I must admit I come from arch and it did actually work over tehre | 22:16 |
| Avic | I'm trying to use freenx-server + kubuntu. ok | 22:16 |
| vanizz_ | if you want to restart the X you could try sudo pkill X | 22:17 |
| Avic | Ericc^^: sudo service lightdm restart | 22:17 |
| Avic | lightdm stop/waiting | 22:17 |
| Avic | lightdm start/running, process 6744 | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | givello: if you want run find ~ -user root -exec sudo chown <youruser>: '{}' \; | 22:17 |
| Avic | Eric^^ | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | givello: that should search for files owned by root and change the ownership to your username | 22:17 |
| studentttu | Ben64: i have the nvidia drivers now, how do I switch hz? | 22:18 |
| k1l | givello: ubuntu is setup to work with a *dm and not startx. even if all other distros are ment to run with startx ubuntu is still setup to use a *dm. | 22:18 |
| givello | Bashing-om: anyhow, you might be interested in the error startx spouted, something about nvidia_someversion not being found. I did try to install nvidia-current yesterday night, and I think it might be related | 22:18 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: use nvidia-settings | 22:18 |
| givello | EriC^^: will do | 22:19 |
| vanizz_ | anyone knows how to update cryptsetup to the latest version ? I have ubuntu 14.04 | 22:19 |
| k1l | vanizz_: find a PPA? | 22:19 |
| givello | Btw, any risks with fiddling with permission of files situated in a folder used in a chroot, from outside of it, while it runs? | 22:20 |
| Avic | Eric^^ Iḿ tryinf to use kubuntu desktop in the ubuntu with the freenx-server. i installed the server but i don't know how to configure it to start the KDE wen it starts. I dom't know if the desktop is up because i can't access it from the nomachine client. Eric^^ | 22:20 |
| Bashing-om | givello: All things are related .. for sure .. the PS is not a single intity .. when we get back to the install we might try and start the terminal with the default fall back driver.Then consider installing a driver (open source !) . | 22:20 |
| alteregoa | how to change to systemd with unihorn, just install systemd? | 22:21 |
| studentttu | Ben64: do I need to boot first? im quite newbie. i wrote nvidia-settings to terminal but there was nothing that i could see as refresh rate or such | 22:21 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: did nvidia-settings pop up? | 22:22 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: ok, is the x forwarding correct? i think if you restart lightdm it should show on the screen | 22:22 |
| vanizz_ | k1l do you have any experience using cryptsetup ? I am having trouble decrypting a swap partition using a keyfile | 22:22 |
| Blizzy | well, I can't install Ubuntu on VirtualBox. | 22:22 |
| Blizzy | :L | 22:22 |
| givello | Bashing-om: Id rather not use the open source driver, unless it evolved enough to deal with games on a 770 | 22:22 |
| studentttu | Ben64: NVIDIA X Server Settings, pops up when I write it | 22:22 |
| Avic | Eric^^: lightdm start/running, process 6744 ---this means the desktop is up? | 22:22 |
| studentttu | Ben64: which is probably not what i want | 22:22 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: that is exactly what you want | 22:22 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: i think so | 22:22 |
| k1l | vanizz_: even on 15.04 its the 1.61 version. so are you sure you need that 1.66 version? | 22:22 |
| studentttu | Ben64: so what do I do there? | 22:23 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: you could try startx if you want | 22:23 |
| k1l | Blizzy: why not? | 22:23 |
| EriC^^ | just this once | 22:23 |
| givello | Bashing-om: anyhow, should I run sudo service gdm restart? or maybe lightdm? | 22:23 |
| bynarie | studentttu, whats the problem now buddy? | 22:23 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: change the resolution, refresh rate, or anything you want | 22:23 |
| Avic | give serrors | 22:23 |
| Bashing-om | k1l: I am going to steal your '*dm' expalanation .. and put it in my notes ! | 22:23 |
| studentttu | Ben64: theres no option for that | 22:23 |
| k1l | Bashing-om: :) | 22:23 |
| Blizzy | k1l, because, I keep getting an error everytime I try to install Ubuntu. | 22:23 |
| studentttu | bynarie: im trying to get my screen HZ to 144hz or 120 atleast. now its 60hz | 22:23 |
| freijon | the open drivers work fairly well, I can play 3D games with pretty good graphics | 22:23 |
| k1l | Blizzy: what error? | 22:23 |
| EriC^^ | Avic: nevermind | 22:24 |
| Ben64 | studentttu: its under display configuration | 22:24 |
| givello | Bashing-om: knowing that I obviously already have an X server running seeing as this is a chroot on this very system | 22:24 |
| Bashing-om | givello: I do not know yet about lightdm/gdm; what return -> echo $DESKTOP_SESSION <- ?? | 22:24 |
| studentttu | Ben64: I dont have those, I only have application profiles and nvidia-setting configurations | 22:24 |
| givello | Bashing-om: so not sure how to emulate the -- :1 option on startx | 22:24 |

| Ben64 | studentttu: you need to restart then | 22:25 |
| Avic | Eric^^: X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting. | 22:25 |
| Avic | xinit: giving up | 22:25 |
| Avic | xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused | 22:25 |
| k1l | vanizz_: sorry i am not familiar with that | 22:25 |
| studentttu | Ben64: yeah ill do it | 22:25 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Startx ? the source of all your problems ? Why are we still on that ? | 22:25 |

| k1l | Blizzy: yep, that is a bad sign. are you sure its a right ubuntu.iso? | 22:26 |
| studentttu | bynarie: do u happend to know how to get rid of mouse acceleration? | 22:26 |
| Blizzy | yes, k1l. | 22:26 |
| Avic | its nx, not x forwarding | 22:26 |
| Blizzy | I've tried 2 .iso | 22:26 |
| Blizzy | one 14.04, the other 14.10. | 22:26 |
| Finetundra_ | givello, shift+4 | 22:26 |
| k1l | Blizzy: what is the exact name of iso? | 22:26 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I just meant to express that I didn't know if gdm or lightdm knew how to deal with multiple X instances running | 22:26 |
| givello | Finetundra_: thanks | 22:26 |
| bynarie | nope | 22:27 |
| Blizzy | ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-i386 | 22:27 |

| bynarie | installed | 22:27 |

| Bashing-om | givello: Ether environment will deal with X, we just have to tell it what we are dealing with. | 22:27 |
| studentttu | Ben64: i got it thanks :) | 22:28 |
| Blizzy | k1l, no. | 22:28 |
| Blizzy | the VM boots from the .ISO. | 22:28 |

| bekks | lotuspsychje: I dont know what you did, but you said you disabled that. | 22:44 |
| navetz | can anyone help me get my mysql-server working? It is failing during an install. | 22:44 |
| bekks | dawson: java.sun.com | 22:44 |
| navetz | http://pastebin.com/ivUBzY3M | 22:44 |
| lotuspsychje | bekks: i disabled it with the manually remove from update-rc.d to prevent it to start at boot | 22:45 |
| bekks | lotuspsychje: Yes, so it will not start at next boot. | 22:45 |
| lotuspsychje | bekks: and still it shows in pstree | 22:45 |
| dawson | bekks: i get what to do for that part and i hava java 8 installed | 22:45 |
| dawson | bekks: but wine isnt accepting the java i have apparently and refuses to recognize it | 22:46 |
| bekks | lotuspsychje: Yes. Because it is still running. You disabled autostart at next boot for it. | 22:46 |
| bekks | dawson: Yeah, because Java 1.1.1 is so old, that even Oracle wont ship it anymore. | 22:46 |
| Bashing-om | givello: When you return, let's see what the system thinks you are using for a DM -> cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager <- . | 22:46 |
| OerHeks | lotuspsychje, it is simple, put cups on manual http://askubuntu.com/a/452304 | 22:46 |
| lotuspsychje | OerHeks: lemem check | 22:47 |
| dawson | bekks: but that doesnt help me at all im asking how to fix the error in the dialouge box | 22:47 |
| OerHeks | lotuspsychje, unless you remove cups | 22:47 |
| bekks | dawson: You need to install Java 1.1.1 - which is so old that it isnt available anymore. | 22:47 |

| Sheepolution | Hi | 22:47 |
| Avenger | hi | 22:48 |
| dawson | bekks: look you have said that 3 times already i need to know HOW to get a java runtime version | 22:48 |
| Sheepolution | Crowded place here | 22:48 |
| dawson | bekks: i dont care what version i dont care what brand i just need a java runtime version | 22:48 |
| bekks | dawson: It is SO aold there is no download option anymore for it. | 22:48 |
| bekks | dawson: It is outdated. Its life ended. It is gone. | 22:48 |
| dawson | bekks: OMG | 22:48 |
| dawson | bekks: LISTEN IM ASKING HOW TO GET SOMETHING LIKE IT NOT HOW TO GET A POS THING THATS 5 GAJILLION YEARS OLD | 22:49 |
| Bashing-om | givello: As in the CHroot environment the system seems intact, you want to now try again and see if we can get to a terminal when boot ing the install ? see what results when booting with the fall back driver ? | 22:49 |
| bekks | dawson: Stop shouting. | 22:49 |
| Sheepolution | I have a problem. I'll try to summarize it as best as I can. | 22:49 |
| dawson | then listen! | 22:49 |
| lotuspsychje | OerHeks: so if i understand right, upstart overrides update-rc.d? | 22:49 |
| bekks | dawson: talk to my ignore list. *plonk* | 22:49 |
| dawson | cool | 22:49 |
| dawson | thanks for the "support" | 22:49 |
| dawson | anyone else know how to get java runtime? | 22:49 |
| hellpe | hello | 22:50 |
| after_r | anyone have any ideas? | 22:50 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I will try again, sure, but just to let you know: last time I couldn't chose the option to boot with the fallback driver | 22:50 |
| hellpe | I've put Xubuntu 14.10 on a USB drive using mkusb, but it won't boot on my Asus EeePC | 22:51 |
| givello | Bashing-om: it means going in the grub submenu and selecting the alternative option to the kernel you want, then selecting the correct option in the menu that pops up, right? | 22:51 |
| hellpe | even if the removable media is set to boot first in the BIOS | 22:51 |
| OerHeks | lotuspsychje, as far as i understand, this setting in /etc/init/cups.conf is preventing upstart yes | 22:51 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Humm .. will not hurt a thing if we try and re-configure the x-server .. wanna see what results ? while we are still in the CHroot . | 22:51 |
| givello | Bashing-om: because if so, it freezes on the screen with all the options in a list to fix the system | 22:51 |
| Sheepolution | Suddenly, I couldn't get on pavucontrol (failed to connect error), and pulseaudio didn't work on Skype anymore. | 22:52 |
| Sheepolution | Now I have reinstalled pulseaudio, restarted my computer. I can: Listen to audio on my computer. I can not: Open pavucontrol (connection error), use my microphone, hear anything on Skype. | 22:52 |
| givello | Bashing-om: right | 22:52 |
| Bluefoxicy | Are YouTube videos not playing at all on Ubuntu 14.10, Chromium browser? | 22:52 |
| Bluefoxicy | they don't play at all for me. | 22:52 |
| Sheepolution | And now I have no idea what to do | 22:52 |
| givello | Bashing-om: lets do that | 22:52 |
| OerHeks | !flash | 22:52 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 22:52 |
| lotuspsychje | !sound | Sheepolution | 22:52 |
| ubottu | Sheepolution: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 22:52 |
| Bluefoxicy | It just shows the first frame, a loading bar--which fills up as the video downloads--but doesn't start playback | 22:52 |
| OerHeks | Bluefoxicy, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Installing_Pepper_Flash_for_Chromium | 22:52 |
| Bluefoxicy | OerHeks: it doesn't use flash | 22:52 |
| hellpe | (I'm currentlu | 22:52 |
| Bashing-om | givello: -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <- from the chroot . | 22:53 |
| Bluefoxicy | OerHeks: besides that, Flash is working in that browser. | 22:53 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Yuk ! no sudo !! | 22:53 |
| Bluefoxicy | For what that's worth, since Flash is nigh on useless | 22:53 |
| givello | Bashing-om: will do | 22:53 |
| Bluefoxicy | So anyway, again | 22:54 |
| Bluefoxicy | Are YouTube videos not playing at all on Ubuntu 14.10, Chromium browser? | 22:54 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I didn't run su to get in my user so I'm still logged in as root on the chroot anyway | 22:54 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: the do work in general | 22:54 |
| Bashing-om | givello: s/b -> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <- . | 22:54 |
| Bluefoxicy | k1l: well zero of them are working for me. | 22:54 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: got pepperflash? | 22:55 |
| givello | Bashing-om: no output | 22:55 |
| Bluefoxicy | k1l: I'm not using flash. | 22:55 |
| Bluefoxicy | Youtube videos are not flash. | 22:55 |
| givello | Bashing-om: But no error either | 22:55 |
| Bluefoxicy | They are HTML5 Canvas | 22:55 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: no | 22:55 |
| bekks | Bluefoxicy: Most YT videos still use flash. | 22:55 |
| OerHeks | not all of them | 22:56 |
| Bluefoxicy | bekks: well every single Youtube video I've watched since I've had 14.04 hsa been html5 | 22:56 |
| Bluefoxicy | when i right click, there is an option to "Get video URL at current time", and "About HTML5 Player" | 22:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: is vlc playing videos well? | 22:57 |
| bekks | You havent watched many videos then ;) | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Humm, not what I expected " no output" .. I had expected a wizard to start, but I caould have my wires crossed . | 22:57 |
| Bluefoxicy | bekks: RWBY, random music uploads, DIY stuff, about 200 TASes | 22:57 |
| givello | Bashing-om: same | 22:58 |
| Bluefoxicy | clips of old TV shows | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | Shell Shock | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | I need to patch | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | can anyone here help? | 22:58 |
| k1l | OERIAS: no. just run the updates | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | k1l, I did | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | no luck | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | i'm on14.10 | 22:58 |
| k1l | OERIAS: 14.10? | 22:58 |
| OERIAS | Yes | 22:59 |
| v_ | I started installing playonlinux from software center a while ago. I am on slow 3g internet. Then during that install I did sudo apt-get install w3m on terminal but it said admin things were locked. I forgot I had software center running. Now I go back to software center and it is black and white colored the whole app, and I'm not really sure if it is installing or if it froze | 22:59 |
| givello | Bashing-om: what's more, I see nothing in dpkg.log | 22:59 |
| k1l | that is patched | 22:59 |
| Bluefoxicy | why did everything break after upgrading to 14.10 | 22:59 |
| Bluefoxicy | Gnome-shell now pauses everything for 3-5 seconds when I touch Activities | 22:59 |
| Bluefoxicy | occasionally it freezes entirely | 22:59 |
| k1l | OERIAS: what does make you think its not patched? | 22:59 |
| Bluefoxicy | Chromium doesn't play HTML5 video anymore, for unknown reasons. | 22:59 |
| samthewildone | !vpn | 23:00 |
| ubottu | For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN | 23:00 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: its working just fine here. so not a general issue. are you sure you have peperflash? | 23:00 |
| OERIAS | k1l, I type this: env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c 'echo hello' | 23:00 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: and are sure you have the other codecs=? | 23:00 |
| Bluefoxicy | k1l: for the last friggin' time, IT'S NOT FLASH. | 23:00 |
| Bluefoxicy | k1l: flash is not loaded on this page. AT ALL. | 23:00 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: for the last friggin time: its working for me, so lets see what its cause is | 23:00 |
| Bluefoxicy | If I right click in the middle of the video | 23:00 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: start chromium from terminal, see what errors you get | 23:00 |
| azashog | Hi guys. Can anyone tell me what does "Automatically from the Internet" option in the Time&Date settings do? Because my time is wrong... | 23:01 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: if you think you are the linux guru and know all how come mine 14.10 just works and yours is broken? | 23:01 |
| Bluefoxicy | you know, the big square box that shows a picture, a play/pause button, a ROCKET, a volume bar, and says it's 360p | 23:01 |
| Bluefoxicy | it gives me a menu that syas "about the HTML5 player" | 23:01 |
| Bluefoxicy | which takes me https://www.youtube.com/html5 | 23:01 |
| Bluefoxicy | which shows 6 little blue checkmarks and says it should work | 23:01 |
| v_ | k1l: you have different hardware? | 23:01 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: you sure your 14.10 didnt update video driver or something? | 23:01 |
| Bluefoxicy | k1l: your question is incongruous. You keep saying "what version of flash is installed?" and I'm not using flash. | 23:02 |
| k1l | Bluefoxicy: ok,gl fixing that. | 23:02 |
| Bluefoxicy | that's like I say "Chromium isn't rendering ubuntu.com correctly" and you say "what version of Firefox?" | 23:02 |
| pope523 | I just installed Ubuntu from an image I downloaded yesterday. After a few minutes of using it, everything but the wallpaper and the mouse cursor disappeared from the screen. Rebooting does not bring it back. When I right click, the context menu flashes for half a second then disappears for a few seconds and flashes again, ad infinitum. Help please? | 23:02 |
| Bluefoxicy | it's not flash, it's not GOING to be flash, it's HTML5, it works in 14.04, it doesn't work now. | 23:02 |
| Bluefoxicy | if I went to a mechanic to ask why my Mazda was making strange tapping noises, and he started talking about Honda motors, I would tell him he must have a head injury and a defective brain. | 23:03 |
| OERIAS | k1l, when typing this command: env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c 'echo hello' | 23:03 |
| OERIAS | I get a hello | 23:03 |
| k1l | OERIAS: hello is fine | 23:03 |
| k1l | OERIAS: vulnerable would be bad | 23:04 |
| OERIAS | k1l, if it were vulnerable, what would it say? | 23:04 |
| phix | Wow, you guys are busy, there is a ubuntu update almost twice a day | 23:04 |
| Andreas | hello! Just installed ubuntu, new to this. I have an UEFI motherboard, so selected the UEFI-usb drive when booting into USB. but after the install GRUB does not come, it go straight to windows 8 | 23:04 |
| k1l | OERIAS: "vulnerable" | 23:04 |
| OERIAS | Oh i see | 23:04 |
| OERIAS | thank k1l | 23:04 |
| spaztik | Andreas: your bios should give you the option to change boot order, or a keystroke to press upon booting to select | 23:04 |
| OERIAS | *Thank you k1l | 23:05 |
| Bashing-om | givello: doing a bit of homework, see maybe that "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg " is now depreciated. still researching .. be back soonest. | 23:05 |
| lotuspsychje | Andreas: did you disable secureboot in bios? | 23:05 |
| Andreas | change boot order? to the USB? | 23:05 |
| Andreas | but I have already installed | 23:05 |
| k1l | np | 23:05 |
| Andreas | urm, I disabled it a long time ago I think | 23:05 |
| Andreas | I can check again, but then I'll need to reboot | 23:05 |
| lotuspsychje | Andreas: might also help to set to legacy instead of uefi for ubuntu | 23:06 |
| Andreas | how do I do that? | 23:06 |
| EriC^^ | Andreas: boot a live usb | 23:06 |
| EriC^^ | and come back here | 23:06 |
| lotuspsychje | Andreas: you want dualboot or singleboot? | 23:06 |
| Andreas | dual | 23:06 |
| lotuspsychje | !uefi | Andreas | 23:06 |
| xTorettox1 | hi! | 23:06 |
| ubottu | Andreas: 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 | 23:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: thank you so much for your help | 23:06 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I really appreciate it | 23:06 |
| xTorettox1 | hi, can I get some newbie help? :) | 23:07 |
| lotuspsychje | xTorettox1: ask away | 23:07 |
| Foxhoundz | how can I configure xrdp to remote desktop into my Ubuntu | 23:07 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: no errors come out of the terminal. | 23:09 |
| azashog | So any ideas what does "Automatically from the Internet" option in the Time&Date settings do? Is it ntp? What service does it, because ntpd is not installed... | 23:09 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: I'm sure the 14.10 release comes with a new Xorg that updates the graphics driver for Intel HD Graphics chipsets. | 23:09 |
| k1l | azashog: yes it is some ntp service | 23:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: did you check additional drivers section of anything changed? | 23:10 |
| spaztik | ntpdate | 23:10 |
| azashog | k1l: and by "some" you mean? What process does it? | 23:10 |
| Bashing-om | givello: I see one post of -reconfigure failure in respect to changed permissions of .Xauthority and .ICEauthority . what returns -> ls -al ~/.Xauthority . la -al ~/.ICEauthority <- ? | 23:10 |
| xTorettox1 | this is it: i installed 14.04 but I have some problems to get drivers for my samsung netbook, so I basically have no video card, therefore, I got enlightenment (e17). Later, I saw there was e19 to install but there are no ppa working repositories yet, so I downloaded every package listed there, but I don't know how to get them installed now | 23:10 |
| spaztik | azashog: ntpdate | 23:10 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: no proprietary drivers are in use | 23:10 |
| azashog | spaztik: no such process is running, and time is severely off... | 23:10 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: vlc video works good? | 23:10 |
| Ben64 | azashog: install ntp | 23:11 |
| spaztik | azashog: might be a cronjob or something | 23:11 |
| azashog | Ben64: I know, I was just asking what the "Automatic" did in the clock setting | 23:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: other browsers play youtubes? | 23:11 |
| k1l | azashog: what if its not ntp daemon? | 23:11 |
| Ben64 | azashog: makes it automatic, when you have ntp | 23:11 |
| Bluefoxicy | VLC plays fine, no sound though. | 23:11 |
| azashog | Ben64: because default ubuntu 14.04 install does not seem to run any time syncing process despite the config. Is it a bug? | 23:11 |
| Ben64 | azashog: possibly | 23:11 |
| azashog | ok, thanks. | 23:12 |
| spaztik | actually doing an ack-grep shows it in /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate | 23:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 23:12 |
| spaztik | so when your interface is brought up, it runs | 23:12 |
| bekks | azashog: It isnt a bug, because you have to configure NTP to be used, if you didnt do that during the installation. | 23:12 |
| azashog | spaztik: but why is my time severely off then? Installed proper ntpd and it is now fine. | 23:12 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: the video driver is the in-kernel open source Intel HD that's built into Core i5 CPUs, and the audio is SoundBlaster Audigy2 | 23:12 |
| spaztik | azashog: is it off by hours or minutes? | 23:12 |
| spaztik | if hours, it's likely you don't have your timezone set properly | 23:13 |
| azashog | bekks: I think it's a bug because the setting is misleading, I thought ntpd was running until I discovered it wasn't. | 23:13 |
| azashog | spaztik: minutes. | 23:13 |
| givello | Bashing-om: let me check | 23:13 |
| Ben64 | azashog: i ran into the same issue after i installed 14.04 | 23:13 |
| nirrrrv | Hello, can anyone advice me with my issue? My desktop (literally) does't work on Ubuntu 13.04 after latest updates. Wallpaper is glitched or some graphic nonsense is shown. Every time I click on desktop Ubuntu freezes for a while until I rapidly click Alt+Tab or Unity launcher. | 23:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: might be a 14.10 bug maybe | 23:13 |
| bekks | azashog: Well, the setting (checkbox) during install is disabled by default - so is ntpd. | 23:13 |
| nirrrrv | sorry, Ubuntu 14.04 | 23:13 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: installing ubuntu-restricted-extras gets me fluendo MP3 (I already had an mp3 player...) and doesn't fix Chromium playing the built-in, non-patented WebM videos Youtube is sending. | 23:14 |
| azashog | bekks: I don't know, all I know is the installer asked if I wanted automatic time from the 'net, I clicked that and thought it was syncing. Turns out it wasn't. The cake is a lie :) | 23:14 |
| spaztik | azashog: not sure it's a bug, it hasn't updated in 5 years... I'm sure it'd be reported by now | 23:14 |
| spaztik | azashog: have you checked your RTC battery? | 23:14 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: im just helping doublecheck possabilities | 23:14 |
| givello | Bashing-om: the tilde leads to /home/ubuntu which doesn't exist | 23:14 |
| Sheepolution | Ṕroblem: I don't have a login manager. I have Slim installed, but when starting my computer, it goes straight to my i3. | 23:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: you got it installed or not? | 23:15 |
| givello | Bashing-om: so I can't execute that | 23:15 |
| Bashing-om | givello: OK, waiting on the ls commands, and also, what results -> dpkg -l xserver-xorg <- so we know what and the state of what we are working with. | 23:15 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: I installed it and tried it. It didn't help. | 23:15 |
| Sheepolution | I kinda ignored the problem but now I want to use Unity or Gnome to configure certain stuff, and I have no idea how to get my login screen back :S | 23:15 |
| xTorettox | hi again | 23:15 |
| xTorettox | got dc | 23:15 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I guess it should be /root/.XAuthority | 23:15 |
| azashog | spaztik: that's irrelevant, my problem was Ubuntu telling me it's syncing time and it wasn't. | 23:15 |
| givello | Or /home/myusername/ | 23:16 |
| spaztik | givello: check /etc/passwd to fix it | 23:16 |
| k1l | Sheepolution: install lightdm | 23:16 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I can su into my username if that helps | 23:16 |
| Sheepolution | k1l: I seem to have that as well | 23:16 |
| Sheepolution | k1l: Would a try on reinstalling do anything? | 23:16 |
| givello | spaztik: check it for my username? I know it | 23:16 |
| lotuspsychje | Bluefoxicy: maybe this can help? http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/10/enable-flash-chromium-browser-ubuntu-14-10/ | 23:17 |
| k1l | Sheepolution: sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm | 23:17 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: cool, I can enable flash and continue to have broken HTML5 WebM | 23:17 |
| neldogz | Hi all, I have noticed intermittent issues mounting my partitions specified in the /etc/fstab file during bootup on a Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS system. It first started with issues mounting the encrypted swap which i replaced with an unencrypted swap partition and now bootup is complaining about an NTFS partition. The error is "The disk drive for /media/user1/partition1 is not ready or not present: Continue to wait, or press S to skip mounting o | 23:17 |
| neldogz | r M for manual recovery. | 23:17 |
| k1l | Sheepolution: or get to know what you changed back then and undo that changes | 23:17 |
| Bluefoxicy | lotuspsychje: I am not trying to solve flash. Flash is working. I can go to terrible web sites that use Flash videos and play flash videos in Chromium. They work. | 23:17 |
| xTorettox | ok, so I need some help manually installing downloaded packages to get the latest version of enlightenment, since there is no other way to install them yet | 23:17 |
| Bluefoxicy | I cannot use HTML5 and WEBM | 23:17 |
| neldogz | has anyone experienced this problem? | 23:18 |
| spaztik | givello: no, that's where home paths are defined | 23:18 |
| Bluefoxicy | Anything having to do with Flash is irrelevant. | 23:18 |
| Sheepolution | k1l: I see, I got to choose between the ones I installed. | 23:18 |
| Sheepolution | k1l: Now I have selected Slim, so I will give that a try. | 23:18 |
| givello | spaztik: right, but those are the default ones, /root for root and /home/myusername for myusermane | 23:18 |
| spaztik | givello: those are ALL users on your system, not just "default" | 23:19 |
| spaztik | example: klrspz:x:1000:1000:Real Name,,,:/home/klrspz:/bin/zsh | 23:19 |
| osdx | OK guys I'm a lil stumped here. I'm installing Win 7 and xubuntu 14.04 w/ full encryption ecryptfs etc. My issue is, when I install win first using say 10% of my drive, then when I install xubuntu I don't have the option for full encryption in the install GUI, they are grayed out. | 23:20 |
| osdx | What's the best way to go here? With win installed already, should I install without full disk encryption and then config it manually afterwards? Wipe the whole disk,, shrink the encrypted partition,, install win,, reconfig grub2 blah? | 23:20 |
| givello | spaztik: I know what /etc/passwd is used for, I think, and I'm not sure of your point | 23:20 |
| azashog | osdx: you have to manually setup partitions | 23:20 |
| spaztik | givello: you're saying your user's home dir doesn't exist... it's defined in that file... | 23:21 |
| osdx | azashog, I did, but didn't confirm the option to encrypt them during install. | 23:21 |
| xTorettox | ok, so i need help too, who's in charge here? :P | 23:21 |
| azashog | osdx: you use the "other" option in the installer, can't remember now exactly how it was phrased, but I believe it was last | 23:21 |
| givello | anyhow, if Bashing-om meant the home of my main user, the permissions of those two files are 600 and the owner and groups are set to my main user | 23:21 |
| k1l | xTorettox: read the readme or install instructions on the site you got that packages from | 23:21 |
| azashog | osdx: when it asks about partitioning I mean | 23:21 |
| osdx | azashog, In the GUI I got through the manual partitioner and to the time and name config etc | 23:22 |
| azashog | osdx: you have to prepare the partitions outside of the installer | 23:22 |
| givello | spaztik: thing is it's a chroot and I think the system is confused into thinking my user is ubuntu, which is the default of the live env and not my real user | 23:22 |
| givello | spaztik: though I can sudo into it fine | 23:22 |
| givello | spaztik: which is weird | 23:22 |
| givello | spaztik: I mean, su into it | 23:23 |
| xTorettox | k1l:it doesn't say a thing, they assume that I know how to install packages | 23:23 |
| azashog | osdx: for instance, I used parted for the gtp layout, encrypted root with cryptfs and set up lvm on it, then the mounted, active lvols were available in the installer to assign mount points and fstypes | 23:23 |
| azashog | osdx: *gpt I mean | 23:23 |
| quidnunc | Can someone tell me what the command for gnome sound control is? I don't have it listed in the control panel | 23:23 |
| azashog | osdx: and cryptsetup :) lol... | 23:23 |
| spaztik | ahhh, ok wasn't aware of that part.... hmm.... only thing i can think of is the /chroot/etc/passwd has that in there? | 23:23 |
| k1l | xTorettox: what is the name of that package? | 23:23 |

| givello | spaztik: it's not the subject anyway | 23:24 |
| spaztik | givello: what does echo $HOME do in the chroot? | 23:24 |
| xTorettox | k1l: there are several to get enlightenment 0.19 installed, first of them is efl-1.11.4 | 23:24 |

| andreas | Hello again! I tried turning secure boot off, but I could not find it. it is how ever apparantly off as windows cant find any UEFI settings via boot repair. | 23:25 |
| xTorettox | tar.gz, but I already decompressed'em | 23:25 |
| givello | Bashing-om: anyay, the result is that the permission of those two files are set to 600 and the owner and groups are my main user | 23:25 |
| k1l | xTorettox: i bet its a README in there :) | 23:25 |
| andreas | Ubuntu still wont boot. It just boots into windows 8 without going into GRUB | 23:25 |

| xTorettox | thanks buddie, I'll give it a try | 23:25 |
| givello | spaztik: /home/ubuntu as I expected, not sure why the chroot doesn't change this env var | 23:25 |
| spaztik | lame :/ | 23:25 |
| xTorettox | I'm pretty sure I'll come back later xD | 23:26 |
| spaztik | givello: is there maybe something in a default profile or the user's profile changing it? | 23:26 |
| spaztik | givello: in the root of your chroot, try grep -inHr "home/ubuntu" * | 23:26 |
| spaztik | that'll search file contents for that string | 23:26 |
| andreas | any one? I cant get Ubuntu to boot after install, no GRUB, secure boot dissabled | 23:26 |
| andreas | booted the USB into UEFI mode | 23:26 |
| azashog | andreas: that on single disk? | 23:27 |
| andreas | yes azashog | 23:27 |
| LashtonsBabe716 | What is this?? | 23:27 |
| andreas | win8 installed first, then ubuntu | 23:27 |
| osdx | azashog, I think that's the route I'm going to try. | 23:27 |
| lotuspsychje | andreas: make your life easy and install ubuntu single :p | 23:27 |
| azashog | andreas: ouch... I don't know then, you have to replace windows' boot loader if I'm not mistaken, something I wouldn't dare do wrt EFI | 23:27 |
| andreas | no lotuspsychje, I need windows too | 23:28 |
| osdx | azashog, Have a particular link/lit to help me out? | 23:28 |
| azashog | andreas: it was cheaper for me to get another disk and dualboot each on its own :D | 23:28 |
| osdx | azashog, Obliged btw. | 23:28 |
| andreas | azashog: would that help? | 23:28 |
| * lotuspsychje hates freaking dualboot nightmares | 23:28 | |
| andreas | I do have an extra SSD somewhere, but I need rails and a wire for it | 23:29 |
| azashog | osdx: quick googling returns this, looks legit http://www.helsinki.fi/~jalaaman/lvmluks.html | 23:29 |
| osdx | I need windows to boot from disk unfortunately. | 23:29 |

| azashog | andreas: well, I rather do two disks instead of risking breaking something with efi. could be dead easy to do single disk, but the price of another just wasn't worth the trouble for me | 23:30 |

| azashog | osdx: just keep in mind that the trick is for installer to SEE activated luks partition and lvm vg | 23:33 |
| pope523 | lotuspsychje: What do I do with failsafeX? | 23:33 |
| Bashing-om | givello: Wow, now " dpkg -l xserver-xorg " with no out put is absolutely not right .. copy and paste and try again ? | 23:33 |
| lotuspsychje | pope523: you can also try the 'fixbrokenpackages' from recoverymode | 23:33 |
| givello | Bashing-om: I didn't say that, I said it prints the help | 23:34 |

| k1l | PCworker: on ARM, its not like you put a cd in and are good to go like on a PC. you will need to find a guy who already made the hard work on making a ubuntu working on that device | 23:44 |
