[00:01] I tried everything, but for some reason I can't change my default browser from firefox to chromium [00:01] Sheepolution: did you try logout and login again? [00:01] ManWithIssiues: OK, in the launcher: Software Center -> task bar at top of screen (edit menu option on top task bar) -> Additional Drivers (tab in Software Sources); Here install readeon. [00:01] People still use chromium? [00:03] ManWithIssiues: Yes on chromium, many prefer it .. there is also Firefox and the propritary Google chrome as the more popular browsers .. there are many others. [00:03] sacarlson: If you want me to try, I'll be right back. [00:03] Than I need to exit to desktop mode.. [00:04] hey guys how can I install opengl 32 bit if I already have the 64 bit version installed? [00:04] To set up Wi-Fi.. [00:04] ManWithIssiues: Do you not have the system on a wired connection ? [00:05] No.. :'( [00:05] It didn't work [00:05] why do people leave before answering my questions??? note on return xdg-settings set default-web-browser firefox.desktop [00:06] ManWithIssiues: OH my, now that 'might' present issues ! I sure hope you can gewt wifi functional .. we MUST have an inter net connection. [00:06] Can't afford.. I broke Sony xperia z2 tablet display, not LCD.. only touch... repair say's 890eur, new is for 763eur... please kill me :-$ [00:06] Sheepolution note on return xdg-settings set default-web-browser firefox.desktop [00:07] sacarlson: http://hastebin.com/otucawiwec.coffee [00:08] How much Time do u have? [00:08] Sheepolution opps what desktop do you run unity? [00:08] sacarlson: Currently I use i3wm [00:09] sacarlson: But I can switch to Unity. I'm not sure if configurations I do there will stay with i3? [00:09] ManWithIssiues: Hard to tell presently how long I can remain here on line with you .. maybe several hours yet. [00:10] Sheepolution_: no unity sucks anything is better [00:10] Need to recharge battery on phone, to establish borowed wi-fi :-$ goes faster... [00:10] 2.0 USB :-) :-) :-) lol [00:10] sacarlson: Oh okay [00:11] sacarlson: When I do something like xdg-settings set default-web-browser chromium-browser.desktop [00:11] It says: xdg-settings: unknown desktop environment [00:12] But still... how can Linux copy faster with 2.0 than f* windows? [00:12] Sheepolution_: yes I think there must be something different needed for i3wm I have to research it as I"ve never used it [00:12] Sheepolution_: I also assume you DID install firefox [00:12] 0k.. I got two drivers. [00:13] Same names [00:13] ManWithIssiues: I can not compare, I have not used Windows in a very long time. [00:13] :-) I feel u.. [00:13] If I do: xdg-mime default browser.desktop x-scheme-handler/https [00:14] And then: xdg-open https://archlinux.org [00:16] I am so lucky to have Linux.. :-) and u guy's to help me fix this miracle of numbers and plastic :-$ [00:16] Do I install drivers before install? [00:17] you don't really install drivers so much at all - it's not Windows [00:17] ManWithIssiues: IF you have no internet connection, you can not install anything . [00:18] So not sure what is going on. .html files open in chromium now, but everything else still in FF. [00:19] I know that.. waiting for phone to charge :-) [00:19] Sheepolution wow weard. do you not have preferences>prefered aplications in this I3dm? [00:21] sacarlson: This is all I have: http://i.gyazo.com/9259ba3dc9cf29e4db2db33c8ffc4d85.png [00:22] So no preferences menu : [00:22] :P [00:22] im following a guide and i need to "cat > hooks/post-receive" [00:22] and set something up there, but i cant "save" [00:22] Sheepolution__: like a missing control panel [00:23] phinxy: ctrl+d when you've finished entering your text. [00:23] Sheepolution__: how would you even run anything? right click? [00:23] is cat like vim then? [00:24] phinxy: Most people just use a text editor instead of redirecting stdin to a file via cat. [00:24] Hi, does a non-PAE OS work with a PAE system. [00:24] savannah_: Yes. [00:24] sacarlson: I have a dmenu, as it's called. I do: Win + D, and then type the application I want to run [00:24] Thank you! [00:25] phinxy: cat is short for concatenate. It's waiting for input, so perhaps you were supposed to cat > hooks/post-receive [00:26] phinxy: If not, enter the text specified, then press Ctrl-D. I'm suspicious that your instructions don't make that clear.

[00:30] !find certificates [00:30] Found: ca-certificates, ca-certificates-java [00:30] phinxy: cat is a command that conCATinates whatever files you pass it as input and dumps them all to stdout. By default, if no file names are passed as parameters to cat, it just reads from stdin. So "cat" with no other arguments just reads from stdin, and writes exactly what it read back to stdout. "cat > /path/to/file" redirects the output of cat to some file. The way that you stop cat from printing to stdout, and thus ...

I just want to know how I can attach all this to an order programatically? [00:51] also you can probably do a memory test from grub [00:51] damn [00:51] wrong channel, my bad! [00:51] alazare619_2: My 1st thought is always, can I boot to a terminal ? [00:52] though i might check the memory than the harddrives [00:52] Bashing-om, pretty much :P [00:53] 10 more minutes for phone [00:58] lagbox, cand even do any tests now it is not even booting [00:59] i havo an another p4 cpu laying around [00:59] i am going to test that one [01:00] alazare619_2: Well, if ya can boot to terminal, and the system is fuctional, that tells ya that it is a desk top issue, huh ?

Time to exercise care when you pop open the case. [01:24] Hi guys! I installed Ubuntu 14.10 (dual boot next to Win7) I'm looking for a way to synchronize 1 file between systems (ts3server.sqlitedb) It's DB for teamspeak3-server, it must be placed in the main ts3-server directory, but for Windows and Linux there are different server versions, therefore I cannot keep this file in the same directory (let's say under NTFS partition) :( Could somebody help me please? :) [01:26] Maybe there is a way to make a universal symlink that would be work for NTFS partition too? :'( Or something else? [01:26] Mega: nah, just transfer it once, then put the command in a script maybe === Nattramn is now known as XChat [01:28] Mega: ntfs supports symlinks, and it's only the source side that needs to support symlinks anyway. [01:28] daftykins: I thought about that, but I need to synchronize that file not only when I boot Ubuntu, but when I shut down it too. Is there a way to execute some kind of .sh before shutdowning? :D [01:28] probably [01:29] Mega: why don't you just run teamspeak from another server, or even a raspberry pi? [01:29] Hello, Im logged in at my laptop, I changed password because I shared a ssh session [01:29] hello [01:29] I 'm in need of help because I have big problems in my ubuntu [01:29] it was yesterday and I kept laptop on, I cant remember what was the "temporal" password [01:30] I have 0 bytes free and I just removed about 215 MB, but now it says 0 bytes free again [01:30] gothicspeaker: pastebin "df -h" [01:30] daftykins: How do you copy-paste in a terminal? I can never do it [01:31] click and drag over the text you want [01:31] open paste.ubuntu.com in a browser, paste in [01:31] simples. [01:31] highlight to copy ... middle click to paste [01:31] gothicspeaker: ctrl+shift+c ctrl+shift+v, or just right click, or use middle click to paste the last text that you selected (*not* the last text you explicitly copied). [01:32] except we don't want it pasted here, thanks lagbox ;) [01:32] daftykins: Because of there is an application ontop of teamspeak-server and I have to maintain it frequently, I mean it needs to be in my PC, where I have Node.js VIM etc :3 [01:32] Mega: all that is repeatable on other platforms [01:32] I can't get it to copy-paste so I will type it over [01:32] Mega: Did you see my message about symlinks? [01:33] yea the question didn't imply pasting here [01:33] daftykins: /dv/sda1 35GB used: 33G Available: 0 Used: 100%, none 4,0 K used: 0 Available: 4,0 K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup [01:33] gothicspeaker: can you just paste it into a pastebin service [01:33] daftykins: udev 996M used: 4,0 K Avail: 996 M 1% /dev [01:33] Jordan_U: uh, sorry, I just realize it. You mean I able to make symlink just usual way? O_O [01:34] Mega: Yup. [01:34] Ben64: No, because I can't press a middle mouse button with my laptop and if I press left and right at the same time the terminal does weird things, and the other things recommended here don't work neither [01:34] ctrl+shift+c when text is highlighted [01:34] s/realize/noticed/ [01:34] gothicspeaker: or, use pastebinit [01:35] gothicspeaker: Completely aside from your copying problem, if you need to post anything that's more than one line please use http://pastebin.ubuntu.com, and only post the URL for it here. [01:35] Ben64: Doesn't work [01:35] gothicspeaker: can't help if you're unwilling to discover how to paste [01:36] gothicspeaker: it does work. ctrl+shift+c to copy in terminal, ctrl+v to paste in pastebin.com or similar [01:36] gothicspeaker: or, right click and select "copy" [01:37] hi guys. I have a very weird problem. I have openvpn set up on both (workstation and second workstation) pcs. on the one with debian it works. here on ubuntu 14.04 it doesn't. [01:37] What was the command again? [01:38] same config. same openvpn version [01:38] same everything. [01:38] same resolv.conf. same ifconfig. same all. [01:38] Ok it worked, thanks Ben64 [01:38] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8768163/ [01:38] even deactivated network manager applet and did everything by hand. does NOT work. what is wrong with my ubuntu? [01:38] Jordan_U: Thank you! [01:38] Mega: You're welcome :) [01:39] Ben64: My system is in Dutch, so therefore it says Bestandssysteem instead of File system etc. [01:39] gothicspeaker: also "ls -al /boot" ? [01:39] gothicspeaker: bestand in dutch means file? [01:39] hasan: yes [01:39] gothicspeaker: in german it means "inventory" [01:40] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8768178/ [01:40] gothicspeaker: Run "export LANG=C" and any further commands you run in this terminal window will output English. [01:40] it's lovely to have a language lesson guys but it's off topic here [01:40] ok then help me please with my openvpn issue ;) [01:40] any hints? [01:40] gothicspeaker: what's "cat /etc/issue" ? you can share that one here as it'll be one line [01:40] Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l [01:41] gothicspeaker: you're running an unsupported EOL release i'm afraid [01:41] gothicspeaker: Ubuntu 13.10 is EOL, you really shouldn't be running an EOL release (it's completely insecure). [01:41] daftykins: What does that mean? My brother installed it. [01:42] gothicspeaker: what are you hoping to do with this machine once you free up some space? [01:42] it has a very strange disk size [01:42] daftykins: Well, just do what I normally do with it. Chatting etc. [01:42] daftykins: Javascript + PHP programming etc. [01:42] gothicspeaker: but you're out of space [01:43] gothicspeaker: you can make some space by removing those three older kernels, but i think you have more data in your /home folder [01:43] gothicspeaker: you really need to upgrade to 14.04 [01:43] daftykins: Yes, but the strange thing is. I cut and pasted a file from about 215 MB to my MP3-player, that cleaned up space [01:43] daftykins: But later it turned to 0 bytes again. So why does that happen? [01:43] gothicspeaker: It means that it's so old that it doesn't get support any more, or any security updates. Upgrades to newer releases are free, and 14.04 (the release after 13.10) is supported until 2019. [01:43] gothicspeaker: try this... "cd ~" then "du -h" what's the last value? the total? [01:44] gothicspeaker: daftykins :; A thouhgt, log files running amuck ? [01:44] when I do du -h [01:44] I get a huge list of Skype [01:44] Bashing-om: sounds good [01:44] gothicspeaker: right which will have a total at the end [01:45] daftykins: It isn't finished yet [01:45] daftykins: It shows all kinds of things now [01:45] But the problem is that I can't remove any files [01:45] would have been easier to do "du -hs" [01:45] Because it says that I can't put anything in the bin. [01:46] let me do that [01:46] gothicspeaker: basically, even if you clean up some space, you're running an unsupported release. you need to back up and reinstall [01:46] Bashing-om: it looks like a gpu card fault everything else is working fine [01:46] daftykins: That is what my brother discouraged, because at the time that I wanted to do that, he said that the new version was buggy [01:46] daftykins: But that was some time ago [01:47] kristofers: Now that is good news ! got another spare around ? [01:47] 13.10 stopped receiving updates and bugfixes in july though [01:47] gothicspeaker: so instead he installed a dead release for you instead of the other LTS, 12.04. be careful taking his advice in future [01:48] daftykins: Well, I 'm not sure anymore if I or he updated it [01:48] daftykins: But he told me that I shouldn't update it myself, that's why I never update it. [01:48] as in you never install patches? or do you mean upgrades? [01:48] Bashing-om: nope have to look for one in local adverisement site [01:48] gothicspeaker: you probably shouldn't be taking that advice [01:49] Bashing-om: thanks for making me go till the ned [01:49] gothicspeaker: updates are good, and if you don't want to upgrade versions a bunch, LTS are supported for 5 years, 14.04 is good until 2019 [01:49] Bashing-om: atleast now I can sleap peacefully [01:50] Ben64: I 'm opening the update manager now. [01:51] gothicspeaker: no point, you have no space to install any updates [01:51] kristofers: Same same here, If my box is down I do not rest well ! [01:51] gothicspeaker: why is your disk so tiny? is this a real system or a VM? [01:52] daftykins: I don't know, my brother is the one in our home with good computer knowledge so he is the one who deals with all our computers and laptops. [01:52] hallo everybody... i ha installed ubuntu from flash drive on mac. is it normal that the sensitivity of the touch pad is very lowr than the one in mac osx? and is it normal that it does not see any wifi network? [01:52] daftykins: The only good computer knowledge which I have is an understanding of PHP and Javascript, so you really need to help me out with Linux. [01:52] manuelperrotta: You should be able to adjust touch pad acceleration in [01:53] manuelperrotta: ... In gnome-control-center . [01:53] manuelperrotta: also just chill [01:54] manuelperrotta: As for wireless, Apple tends to use hardware with very poor linux support, so while I wouldn't say it's "normal" that your wifi isn't working, it's also not surprising :( [01:54] daftykins: But I basically can't do anything anymore I guess, because removing files takes space? [01:54] gothicspeaker: did du -hs ever finish [01:55] Ben64: Well, once it worked but when I do it again it doesn't work. It was very slow [01:55] jordan.... its not about speed but the amount of pressure on the touchpad [01:55] gothicspeaker: its counting the size of everything in the directory, it might take a while [01:56] gothicspeaker: but then you can see how much space is in your home and you can delete whatever [01:56] Ben64: Yes, but currently it shows nothing when I use the command. Is that normal? [01:56] gothicspeaker: its waiting for it to complete [01:56] Ben64: I can't delete anything, because it says that there isn't enough space to delete a fiel. [01:56] gothicspeaker: you can delete stuff using the terminal though [01:56] Ben64: As it seems to be unable to delete a file when there are 0 bytes. [01:57] Ben64: how can I remove a file by the terminal? [01:57] rm [01:57] Jordan_U ... how can I see if the wifi is properly working or not? [01:57] gothicspeaker: Did you delete the file with the GUI or from the command line? [01:58] gothicspeaker: here see if you can make some space like this "sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.8.0-35-generic linux-image-3.11.0-18-generic linux-image-3.11.0-19-generic" [01:58] is there any command that I can insert from xtrem to check if the wifi is working? [01:58] manuelperrotta: iwlist scan [01:58] ifconfig [01:59] daftykins: Trying it now [01:59] lkjlklkj [02:00] with iwlist scan it says eth0 interface doesn't support scan [02:01] manuelperrotta: type "iwlist scan" === andrex|off is now known as andrex [02:02] lyntoo.. with the command ifconfig it says parameters all 0 on the eth0 that should be the wired network and not the wifi... does it mean that it does not recognize the wifi interfaceù? [02:02] manuelperrotta: If that's all that it outputs, then that means that there are currenlty no drivers active for your wireless card at all. [02:02] i started ubuntu from an usb key [02:03] daftykins: It's deleting the files now, and it creates grub.cfg, what's that? [02:03] and i cant go further intalliing the system because i have no internet connection [02:03] gothicspeaker: updating GRUB config. GRUB is the bootloader. [02:03] manuelperrotta: Please pastebin the output of "lspci -vnn". [02:03] gothicspeaker: after that is done, also run "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoremove" [02:03] ifconfig should see wlan0 if there are active recognized wlan [02:03] i'm writing frommipad herer and the laptop is without internet i will try to write by hand [02:04] eth0 is the wired lan [02:04] manuelperrotta: did you see my message? [02:05] hi [02:05] daftykins: I also have a PHP server running which a friend helped to install, but I still use localhost for my php files so it seems better to me to not remove it. [02:05] نورت [02:05] مدري فيه عربي ولا لا [02:05] manuelperrotta: OK, then that last command will output far too much to retype. Can you temporarily connect via ethernet? [02:05] gothicspeaker: remove what? [02:06] gothicspeaker: i haven't told you to do anything about removing PHP [02:06] daftykins: No I know, but maybe that takes a lot of space too, I don't know. [02:06] daftykins: Now it's finished [02:06] dafstykins.. yes i did and i tryied but it only vives me eth0 parameters [02:06] !arabic | salman [02:06] salman: For Arabic language support, please : /join #ubuntu-arabic : للحصول على الدعم باللغة العربية [02:07] شوكراً [02:07] daftykins: It still says that I have 0 bytes, is that normal? [02:07] gothicspeaker: ok can you paste "df -h" again? [02:07] Jordan U ... i do not have lan connection at all [02:07] gothicspeaker: you ran the other two commands yes? [02:07] daftykins: Which other two commands? [02:08] gothicspeaker: scroll up. [02:08] manuelperrotta: Please run "lspci -vnn -d 14e4:" and post a picture of the output taken with your iPad, unless there is no output (which may be the case if you don't have a broadcom card). [02:08] daftykins: One of those commands with ds -h in fact did nothing for 15 minutes, so I closed the window. [02:08] jordan ok... hold while i do [02:09] gothicspeaker: that was not my suggestion. you are looking in the wrong place [02:09] 02:03 < daftykins> gothicspeaker: after that is done, also run "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoremove" [02:09] daftykins: Yes I have done that, it still says 0 bytes. [02:09] please pay more attention [02:09] i'm not seeing a new pastebin [02:09] daftykins: It's 03:09 so it's a bit hard to stay awake well, but this is an urgent problem so I don't go to bed.

[02:20] http://imgur.com/YcZdWFa [02:20] manuelperrotta: Please try following these directions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access . [02:20] daftykins: If I do "du -scx * | sort -n" it doesn't react. [02:21] privmsg Jordan_U ok sorry for that ;) [02:21] manuelperrotta: what mac is this? [02:21] daftykins ..it's a 3.1 supermodified [02:21] you mean 3,1 macbook pro? [02:21] "ifconfig -a" is what's relevant here [02:21] its the old black one remember? [02:22] just this evening i installed ubuntu 14.04 on the white macbook 3,1, late 2007 [02:23] you can't get wifi working until after install [02:23] (ideally) [02:23] daftykins exact ...mine its just the evolution of that white one you used [02:23] so what is your advice [02:24] here's what i did. 1) resize OS X to use less space, making room for ubuntu. 2) booted ubuntu USB flash drive, selected "install alongside". 3) reboot into ubuntu 4) go to hardware drivers and install the broadcom driver. 5) reboot, enjoy wireless. [02:25] Bah, Broadcoms [02:25] daftykins: Does that require an internet connection? manuelperrotta has said that they can't connect via ethernet. [02:25] wired interface worked fine for me [02:25] genii: yeah :( [02:26] guys this is what the ifconfig -a command return me look http://imgur.com/CmmwYbo Jordan_U [02:26] daftykins: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 says that manuelperrotta's card is only "partially" supported by b43, which is why I was recommending that they follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access to install wl . [02:27] yeah i think mine was the 4312 [02:27] bcmwl-kernel-source was the ticket [02:27] daftykins: Ok, now I see a change [02:27] daftykins: It doesn't say 0 bytes anymore, but 4,0 KiB now [02:27] though that needed connectivity to install [02:27] gothicspeaker: i'd rather see pastebins than this [02:27] daftykins: Now it says 8,0 KiB [02:28] Jordan_U daftykins... but the device is recognised in the previous command as shown in the screen shot... how can I handle? [02:28] gothicspeaker: please stop spamming me with constant messages :( [02:28] daftykins: I 'm doing "du -scx * | sort -n" , but I need to wait until it shows the first line. [02:28] stop it. [02:28] manuelperrotta: Like I said, follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access . [02:28] Sorry. I was asking for help. [02:28] Not trying to annoy you. [02:28] so, pastebin or nothing [02:28] "df -h" [02:29] manuelperrotta: Do you have the DVD/USB you used to install Ubuntu still in the machine? [02:29] Jordan_U ok I'm going to see your link [02:30] Jordan_U yes I have the file on img and also the flash key [02:30] Why? [02:31] daftykins: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8768652/ [02:32] know basic about dpkg -i file.deb [02:32] manuelperrotta: Those directions require you to use files from the installation disk. [02:32] gothicspeaker: do you maybe have a DVD of ubuntu or a USB flash drive with it on that you can boot? [02:32] ok [02:32] daftykins: No, my brother has those things. [02:32] when addinh a crontab command and save (etc/crontab) should I do anything to "trigger" ? [02:33] gothicspeaker: i think it's game over then === peter is now known as Guest65138 [02:33] daftykins: Have you checked if there is something spamming /var/log/ yet? [02:33] daftykins: Let me try to restart it. [02:33] Jordan_U: been more constantly frustrated by the apparent abnormal function of commands [02:33] and the inability of this guy to carry them out. [02:33] might be best i take a backseat now, i'm getting pretty frustrated :) feel free to care over if you like [02:34] possible to kill a process with pkill by specifying PID? [02:34] I cannot find the option. [02:34] introom: That's because plain old "kill" is for that. [02:35] Jordan_U: thanks. yup. I finally use the old kill. [02:36] introom: You're welcome. [02:36] manuelperrotta: Please insert the USB drive containing the Ubuntu install files, select it in the file manager (to be sure that it gets mounted) then run "mount" and post a picture of the output here. [02:37] fastfood helper, anybody want search few minutes on google pfhehe [02:37] manuelperrotta: Any place that you see "/cdrom/" in the instructions I linked to we'll need to replace with the path to the USB drive. [02:37] well i just did the ubuntu-bug procedure like from the explanation of your link ... it says that i have not that file === Jakeo-Lantern is now known as Jake [02:37] hi [02:38] Jordan_U the device is already mounted [02:38] whats top[c today [02:38] manuelperrotta: I linked to a very specific part of the page, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access . That portion of the page doesn't have "ubuntu-bug" anywhere. [02:39] Jordan_U do you mean trubleshotting wireless connecyion? [02:40] manuelperrotta: You should only be looking at the part of the page that has a heading of "STA - No Internet access". [02:41] manuelperrotta: The section after that has a heading "Upstream 802.11 Linux STA driver", if you get to that *you've gone too far*. [02:42] Ok, I tried to restart my pc, I can still get at the Guest account, where I am now [02:42] I will try if my normal account still shows 0 bytes. [02:44] manuelperrotta: Do you see the section I'm talking about now? [02:44] hey [02:46] hi all. nautilus does not ask me for a private key. only username and password input is there when I "Connect to Server" [02:46] this is ubuntu 14.04 (unity) [02:47] any hints? [02:47] in "Connect to server" I say "sftp://domain.tld" or "ssh://domain.tld" <- which seems to be the same [02:48] Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_3.13.0-36.63_amd64.deb [02:48] got this attempting to install clang-3.5 and also clang-3.4 [02:48] k0nichiwa: Not Found in my browser [02:48] any ideas ? this is on an amazon ec2 instance [02:48] that link goes to nirvana [02:48] im wondering if anyone could help me with increasing the size of my partition [02:48] apt-get install clang-3.5 failed with that error [02:49] k0nichiwa: apt-get update first [02:49] Jordan_U ..I'm so frustraed I followed the procedure... it says no wireless extencio... [02:49] yeah just thought of that thanks [02:49] manuelperrotta: Did you recieve any error messages from any of the commands? [02:50] no no errors [02:50] Jordan_U not any other error [02:50] manuelperrotta: And you ran all 8 commands (two commands per step, in 4 steps)? [02:50] skyart: 1) boot live session 2) run gparted 3) modify partitions [02:50] worked =) [02:50] nope i followed the list [02:51] manuelperrotta: What do you mean by "followed the list"? What was the last thing you did? [02:51] i know how to modify, but i wanted to specifically ask would happed if i move my partion, the one containing m windows c drive, leftwhat [02:51] Jordan_U and from the lshw command it says that I should run like a superuser [02:51] just because of the message that pops up [02:52] want ot make sure it's safe [02:53] manuelperrotta: The part of the page I'm talking about doesn't mention lshw either. It's *absolutely critical* that you find the right part of the page first. Did you find the portion of the page with the heading "STA - No Internet access" yet? [02:53] skyart: with your backups done, it doesn't matter right? [02:54] yah... havnt backed up lol === roberto is now known as Guest11709 [02:55] Jordan_U nope... i went through wireless troubleshotting.. where is the point you are indicating me.. tell me wha it is written exactely [02:56] manuelperrotta: It's important that you pay attention to what I say, and if there's anything you don't understand tell me. I made it clear multiple times what portion of the page I'm talking about. Look for the heading "STA - No Internet access", search for that text in your browser if you need to. [02:58] Jordan_U ..i made a print screen of the page where u are sending me look at it is it right? http://imgur.com/CmmwYbo [02:58] manuelperrotta: I think you posted the wrong link, that's a screenshot of your terminal.

It looks like you're trying to use a browser that's integrated into your IRC client, please try copying the full URL and pasting it into Safari's URL bar. Safari should handle this better. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access [03:06] BradTN: and what's the RAID device? [03:07] BradTN: (also pastebin "sudo lsblk") [03:07] manuelperrotta: No, that is also not it. If it doesn't say exactly "STA - No Internet access", you're looking at the wrong part of the page.

[05:56] hi all [05:58] ping [05:58] hi Gus [05:59] ping here too :) [05:59] hi ramsud [05:59] pong [06:07] ho pong [06:08] roaming? [06:08] big storm here [06:09] #ububtu [06:10] can anyone talk? === Joshua^Dunamis_i is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [06:10] hiya [06:11] wow! [06:11] tzag peter__ . &how do you do [06:11] nydel hi [06:12] I'm good you? [06:13] peter__: pretty well thankyous. writing up a log entry about conscious use of the word "newbie" and its variants. [06:13] The directory /home/USERNAME/bin is usually reserved for things like executables? [06:13] &what're you up to peter__ ? [06:13] dreki: not necessarily. anything in the $PATH variable can be though of as reserved for things like executables. [06:14] dreki: some systems, especially multi-users, may create a mode 0755 ~/bin for user exec's but usually that's something one does oneself. [06:15] dreki: my ~/bin is always in $PATH and 0755 and contains only symbolic links to executable shell scripts. is there anything in particular you are trying to do? [06:16] I'm just cooling down we had a big tropical strm [06:17] peter__: whereabouts are you? [06:17] nydel: I am Installing a program from .sh file and it wants to know where to put the executable file. It recommends ~/bin. I was wandering why it recommends putting it there since that folder is unused currently. [06:18] dreki: a few things. are you installing this on a system that is yours (do you have root)? what is the program? [06:19] Sydney, we have some big bush fires nearby [06:19] nydel: I have can use root but I chose not to for this particular program. It is vendetta online the game [06:19] dreki: vendetta online the client or a server [06:19] nydel: client [06:21] dreki: at command line do "echo $PATH" and see if your ~/bin is in there [06:22] nydel: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games [06:22] I guess not [06:23] dreki: that's ok you can add it [06:23] nydel: What is $PATH anyway? some kind of link to particular paths? [06:23] dreki: $PATH is essentially the variable that stores where to look for executables [06:24] dreki: do this: PATH=$PATH:/home/{your-login}/bin/ [06:24] all: did i write that correctly? [06:25] nydel: Okay that added it to the variable I believe [06:27] dreki: you can check with echo $PATH. also you can make this happen on bootup by adding that last line "PATH=$PATH:/home/dreki/bin;export PATH" to your ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_rc [06:27] dreki: next cd into the ~/bin and do "chmod -R 0755 ." [06:27] 0755 is the mode for a folder to be able to contain executables [06:27] nydel: What is mode 0755? [06:28] :) [06:28] ah [06:28] dreki: this isn't odd or anything, making a private bin is one of the first things i do as a new user on a system [06:28] dreki: expect to do this 10k more times in your life :) [06:29] nydel: I got a bit of output from terminal when i did that [06:30] hello [06:30] nydel: is there somewhere I can paste it to show you? [06:30] dreki: yessir/madam we usually use pastebin.ubuntu.com here [06:32] nydel: Oh, crap. I see what I did wrong. I cd to /bin not ~/bin. Do you think i messed anything up? [06:32] dreki: one moment let me figure the command to undo that [06:33] while i'm working: does anyone know ubuntu /bin's default permission code? brb [06:33] dreki: wait it shouldn't have done anything [06:33] dreki: you weren't root [06:34] dreki: should just be a bunch of "permission denied" [06:34] nydel: I was about to say "that explains the output I got" [06:35] ha cool [06:35] hey good call on not being root lol [06:35] no disrespect, i f'cked my primary system installing a video game using root recently [06:35] anyhow dreki did you know typing "cd" will bring you to home? [06:35] nydel: I understand what root is so I try to use it only when I absolutely have to. [06:36] i like to do "cd" then "cd bin" rather than "cd /home/blah-too-long....bin" etc [06:36] watch the language in this channel though [06:36] Ben64: not good enough to simply censor? sure thing bud i'll cut that out. [06:37] nydel: personally i don't care, but its channel rules, even if censored like that [06:37] Ben64: i'm a guest here; i appreciate your informing me :) [06:38] Where can I learn more about chmod modes? [06:38] dreki: once you get into your ~/bin and do "chmod -R 0755 ." you should be able to run "sh the-install.sh" to your personal ~/bin [06:38] !permissions | dreki [06:38] dreki: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [06:38] dreki: http://www.linux.org/threads/file-permissions-chmod.4094/ [06:39] hi [06:39] How do I get this command to conclude? - `if pgrep python >/dev/null 2>&1 then pkill python else true` [06:39] dreki: i'm interested to see if you get the game running, please let me know? i need something new ater the last one messed up my system. [06:40] AlecTaylor: what language are you in [06:40] AlecTaylor: don't ever run "pkill python" ... if you must, do "pkill -u username python" [06:42] nydel: the install worked. I am about to launch it now. [06:43] dreki: good luck! [06:47] nydel: So far so good. The game seems to be running great. [06:52] #freenode [06:53] what game are you installing dreki? [06:54] peter__: Vendetta Online. [06:56] interesting watching you guys chilling out on installs and cmd line [06:57] Here's a simpler solution I just made: `pgrep python && true || pkill python` [06:58] nydel: Yeah, you're right [07:06] Might sign out now and go try to load 14.xx on my other PC === Jerboovy is now known as Jeruvy [07:17] Query: Does Ubuntu/Linux support btrfs as /boot partition (grub2 bootloader)?

[08:04] i'm shaking my head looking at the damage done [08:04] any one know a simple solution to rollback such a disaster? [08:05] i'm at a loss, i am ready to call the install toast === greentea- is now known as blacktea [08:05] heraclitus: as far as I know unless he had rsync already running to backup what he had then he can't go back [08:06] i figured as much, sacarlson [08:06] you just can't fix stupid === blacktea is now known as sonetea [08:06] heraclitus: sure you can in most cases we learn from our and hopefuly from others mistakes [08:07] heraclitus: he should be able to also recover his /home personal data [08:08] yeah, that shouldn't be a problem [08:08] thanks sacarlson [08:11] I'm trying to download Ubuntu. Should I pick "64-bit - recommended" or "32-bit - for machines with less than 2GB of RAM" for a 32bit PC that has 3GB of RAM? :S [08:11] as long as you don't plan to upgrade to more than 4G ram, you can get away with 32bit, rubiksmomo [08:11] rubiksmomo: are you sure its 32 bit [08:11] rubiksmomo: I would recommned 64bit [08:12] Ben64: I'm pretty sure it's 32bit, it's quite old [08:12] 64 bit is quite old ;) [08:12] rubiksmomo: 64 has been around for quite a while, what cpu is it [08:12] rubiksmomo: I used to run 32bit but then later found I couldn't simulate 64bit in virtualbox but I can run 32bit libs in 64bit [08:13] Query: is there an official migration procedure for root-on-ext4 converted to root-on-btrfs for an existing system? [08:13] Can't remember the model, I don't have access to it right now [08:13] I think most people usually would say get away with 32bit [08:13] the rule usually is, if it supports 64 bit, use 64 bit [08:14] I'll get both and install the one based on CPU, probably 32bit [08:14] yeah, especially if you plan on upgrading [08:14] the next upgrade is new PC [08:14] 64bit cpus came out like... 10+ years ago? [08:14] rubiksmomo, what's your processor? [08:14] I sincerely doubt that your processor is 32-bit [08:15] he isn't sure at the moment [08:15] I only remember that it has ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (128MB, AGP) [08:15] ooh old [08:15] Ah. [08:15] ^_^ [08:15] Try the 64-bit liveCD [08:15] could still be 64bit though [08:15] If it runs on that, it's 64 bit, if not, it's 32 bit [08:15] but man, you need to upgrade for real if you're on AGP still [08:15] No need to install, just run the livecd [08:15] OK, cool === Guest58311 is now known as Locke2002 [08:16] Or you could probably look it up with the current OS it's running. [08:16] if its a 32bit os, it probably wouldn't say [08:17] I'll get both and test 64bit live, if it works I install 64 otherwise 32. [08:17] sounds good [08:17] OK, thanks :) [08:23] Sachiru: it looks like it's fully supported, only thing I see is that you should be sure to put mbr on like sda not sda1 or sdX not sdx1 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs [08:24] Sachiru: but maybe with the new version of grub2 maybe you can do that also [08:25] Hmm [08:25] The only things in /boot should be grub and the kernel images, correct? [08:26] I'm trying to create a new KVM VM on my headless server. This guide assumes I already have a KVM VM running, which I don't https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Virsh [08:26] Sachiru: ya I think so, and I did hear them say you couldn't have /boot in btrfs [08:26] did = didn't [08:27] Hmm [08:27] efi is also in /boot/ too if you have that [08:27] /connect irc.freenode.net [08:27] Looks like my best bet is simply / in btrfs plus regular image backups of /boog [08:27] */boot [08:28] My goal is simply being able to quickly revert in case of an apt-get dist-upgrade or do-release-upgrade breakage/failure [08:28] How do I get my if to start and use dhclient at boot? Right now I have to at every boot $ sudo dhclient eth0 === Tsunami is now known as Guest26758 [08:31] wachpwnski: you must have a ubuntu server install?

[08:46] freenode web irc [08:47] ah, if you want an easier experience i reccomend using a client like hexchat. If you need to use a webirc i like kiwiirc [08:48] Sonetea, what might i use IRC for on a regular basis? [08:48] sacarlson: yes, I think I got it resolved. [08:48] devunt: that worked, thanks! [08:48] welcome [08:49] what are the advantages of Hexchat and kiwiirc [08:49] wachpwnski: that is not the normal way it's done as in devunts method but if it works [08:50] sacarlson: I edited /etc/network/interfaces too. Is that the way to do it? [08:51] sorry about that, well you can use irc for discussion if you want [08:52] ok i understand its like an open chatroom correct [08:52] yeah basically [08:52] or well that's exactly what it is [08:53] gotta ya so what are the good things about hex chat and Kiwiirc [08:53] i am following this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK-JHfJqmkY tut to share my wifi to my rasp pi through ethernet; but it id not working. What am i doing wrong? [08:54] MoorAfro47: kiwiirc is okay just for talking, it lacks the features that you would find on most non-web irc clients [08:54] hexchat can do a lot all through GUI [08:54] Sonetea: is there a way to save friends on an IRC [08:54] hi all. i am trying to scrobble tracks without any success. i tried post-fm but it does not scrobble anything, is there anything decent scrobbler for libre.fm to use with cmus ? [08:54] nope [08:54] you just have to remember their names [08:55] ok [08:55] Sonetea how are you changing your font color [08:56] I'm not, your client probably does it when i ping you [08:56] how do you ping someone [08:56] just say their name [08:56] MoorAfro47 [08:57] wardhan: last-cmus doesn't have librefm support?

But please note that you will need to Google a lot when you use Linux. Try to google everything first before askin [09:22] mikaelb_, depends on the specific drivers I imagine. torrent an ubuntu .iso, make a USB, boot and test for yourself === Scarthus is now known as Zarthus [09:24] cfhowlett: Will Ubuntu run on the USB, without being installed on the computer? [09:25] mikaelb_, of course! that's how many people pre-test distros. it WILL run slower as it is ram resident, but you can get a taste for your decision making [09:25] That [09:25] I finally made it on hexchat [09:25] yes!

Any experience running autodesk software on linux system? [09:27] moorafro47, happy2help [09:27] mikaelb_, none. I've heard autodesk is a bit of bear with it's demands. check out the dell precision m3800 as it is certified to run autodesk under windows.

[11:02] guto, ask your ubuntu support questions [11:02] I have none, just exploring IRC, sorry [11:03] guto, no worries. continue in #ubuntu-offtopic [11:03] I’m having trouble figuring out how to stop this spammer generating tons of crap in my mail queue [11:03] I can’t even figure out who it’s coming from [11:04] fivetwentysix, ##linux or #ubuntu-server might offer some direction [11:04] ah ssh:nottyroot60.173.9.176 [11:04] wtf is that [11:16] hola [11:17] hi guys please help how do i change fqdn in ubuntu [11:32] can anyone tell me why cant i get fragrouter to load even after i installed libnet1-dev === shadowRAM_AFK is now known as shadowRAM [11:40] on my 13.04 raring server, apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade does nothing. why doesnt it upgrade? [11:41] alnr, probly because it's up to date [11:41] BluesKaj: how cant i get to next release though? [11:41] can* [11:42] !eolupgrade | alnr [11:42] alnr: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [11:42] alnr, over the 'net, do-release-upgrade [11:42] use sudo [11:42] BluesKaj, ?? from 13.04? [11:44] that is an invalid operation [11:44] for apt-get i mean [11:44] alnr, you can't do-release-upgrade from 13.04. [11:44] I have a small Banana pi server running ubuntu. It consumes very little power. I want to connect an external USB 2.0 2.5" drive (without own power). In order to further reduce power, I am wondering whether it is possible to deactivate a USB port under Ubuntu with a command. That way I can enable the external drive just in time. [11:46] cfhowlett, he asked for the next release, not the newest release [11:47] BluesKaj: ultimately i would like to go to newest [11:47] alnr: you'd probably be better off sticking with LTS releases for a server [11:47] BluesKaj, right, but as I understand it, once the next release (13.10) is upgraded (14.04) the option to jump one level ceases. and since he cant' jump from 13.04 >>> 14.04, do-release-upgrade won't work. or am I mistaken? [11:48] actually, i think 13.04 can go directly to 14.04 [11:48] Ben64: yep, but its got an old postfix [11:48] it is a special case, since it's support ended after 13.10 [11:48] alnr, did you try sudo do-release-upgrade?? [11:49] alnr: but if you don't upgrade every 6 months you'll be in a bad spot like this again [11:49] Ben64, wait, what? 13.4 >>> 14.04? [11:49] alnr: no bug fixes, no support [11:49] cfhowlett: because 13.10 was the first release with only 9 months of support (if i'm remembering properly) [11:50] cfhowlett, if that's true , then it's news to me , but I've never been behind more than one release so you may be right [11:50] cfhowlett: yep, says command not found. or do you mean sudo apt-get do-release-upgrade (which says invalid operation) [11:50] oh wait, it was 12.10 with the longer support [11:50] BluesKaj, I only do LTS >>> LTS myself, so perhaps better that I don't comment [11:51] alnr, proper command: sudo do-release-upgrade [11:51] alnr: if you really like upgrading every 6 months, go ahead and get 14.10 [11:51] Anybody? [11:51] eeee: might ask in #raspberrypi [11:51] eeee: wait, thats not raspberrypi? [11:52] hi I just updated to 14.04 and it wont let me add or install any programs, complains an authentication server is not working ?

[11:52] Ben64, no banana pi [11:52] Ben64: i'm ok to update every 6 months rather than be stuck until next LTS. but i dont see how to budge it out of 13.04 [11:53] alnr, eolupgrade or clean install [11:53] !eolupgrade | alnr [11:53] alnr: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

[12:28] unlockus: It's as safe as it is in Windows or OS X. [12:28] i need to transfer something from a windows machine [12:29] :) [12:29] unlockus: just use samba not teamviewer [12:29] unlockus: Since it's proprietary software, nobody can tell if it has a backdoor or whatever. But I use it myself, I consider it safe. [12:29] thanks, i was hoping for this answer [12:29] ok [12:29] thanks guys [12:29] there are so many packages like `python-flask-doc`, how can I use it? [12:30] gansteed: To view Python documentation, use the "pydoc" command [12:34] theadmin: thank you, but can not use pydoc to see the flask-doc ;( [12:34] gansteed: "pydoc flask" should do it [12:35] gansteed: You can also run "pydoc -g" and search for documentation using a graphical interface. [12:35] Note that python-tk has to be installed. [12:35] ;) thanks, it works [12:37] I just discovered my /var/mail/$user fil took up gigabytes of space, because it contained error messages from a cron task. I understand these errors and I can fix the cron task, but I am wondering why the file kept increasing in size and how I can prevent it from clogging the disk in the future. [12:37] *file [12:38] I understand this is not Ubuntu-specific, so I would be very happy with a reference to generic documentation that can help me. [12:38] Xano, ##linux would know [12:39] #ubuntu-serve as well [12:39] #ubuntu-server [12:39] cfhowlett: But of course. Thank you :) [12:39] can anybody reproduce totem being unable to play mp4? [12:39] (h264) [12:39] Xano, happy2help [12:40] while webm for example is working [12:40] totem from the command line does not show any different message if I play either of both [12:40] restricted extras is installed [12:41] erle-, 14.04.1 totem loves my .mp4's [12:42] Xano: Well, if you have errors, best you can do is fix them. I suppose the "logrotate" tool may help, it compresses old logs to prevent them from clogging up disk space, but I have no idea whether this affects crons messages. [12:42] Xano: Your cron jobs should not just be commands though. Use scripts, make them redirect errors to a file themselves. [12:43] cfhowlett, problems started shortly after 14.10 upgrade [12:43] Xano: Or just add "2>/dev/null" to the end of your command to ignore errors altogether. [12:43] erle-, ... can't help. I only ever run LTS ... 3 years of support > 9 months of support [12:44] theadmin: Of course I will fix the cause of these errors, but I never noticed these problems until MySQL started showing symptoms of not having enough free disk space to write to, because the mail file ended up being about 18GB in size. I would ideally be notified of when this happens, or just discard old entries. [12:44] Maybe even both. [12:45] theadmin: True. What exactly does “2>” do that “>” does not? [12:45] Xano: Just > is STDOUT, 2> is STDERR [12:45] What are those even called? Then I can search for docs myself [12:45] theadmin: gotcha [12:46] Xano: You can redirect both to the same place as follows: >TARGET 2>&1 [12:46] (where TARGET is, say, /dev/null or a file) [12:48] theadmin: cool! What is the technical name of “>” in this case? [12:48] Xano: Output redirection operator. Or something along those lines. [12:48] I'm not sure what the actual manuals call it, but that's the term for it that is used often [12:48] theadmin: I get enough search results using that phrase, thanks! === administrator is now known as Guest96233 [12:51] Xano: How do you type the fancy quotes? [12:51] theadmin: Which quotes? [12:51] Like, “ and ” [12:51] theadmin: Oh, I did not even notice that. It must be Mac OS converting them. [12:52] test: “” [12:52] Ooh, Alt+Shift+[ does those for me [12:52] [ or ] === bcode is now known as we [12:52] Oh that’s annoying. Why does it do that? :p [12:52] There. [12:52] Retina screen and I have everything set to small, so I never noticed. [12:53] Xano: I dunno, many IM clients like to do stuff like this, like converting -- to a long dash or three dots to an actual ellipsis sign [12:53] Ah, it's a setting. Should be turned off now: "foo" [12:53] Which is annoying especially when you want to type a command or something [12:53] It was a OS thing === doge is now known as doge_ [12:53] But it never converted the quotes in my IDE [12:53] weird === doge_ is now known as doge [12:53] Probably apps can request to disable it [12:54] I have to leave. [12:54] theadmin: I will check out logrotate. The man page makes it sound like it's what I need. [12:54] theadmin: Thanks again! Enjoy your weekend [12:55] Xano: Thanks, you too [12:55] hi, is there no package "ia32-libs" for utopic yet? [12:55] p01nt3r: That doesn't exist anymore, Ubuntu went full on multiarch [12:55] p01nt3r: To install a 32-bit version of a package, just "sudo apt-get install packagename:i386". [12:55] oh, thx! [12:55] p01nt3r: Dependencies for 32-bit packages should be resolved automatically, without problems. [12:56] these are very nice news. thank you! [12:57] my computer just froze while installing the latest nvidia drivers. the file is a .run..and is currently running in gedit...how else can i run the .run file or change my graphics driver? [12:57] and what do i do, if it is a *.deb-package, like "google-earth-stablexyz.deb"? [12:57] nusr: Don't use that, just use the Ubuntu driver tool [12:57] oh nevermind. [12:57] p01nt3r: Just double-click it and Ubuntu will handle it for you. [12:57] nusr: Settings -> Software & Updates -> Additional drivers [12:57] theadmin: ok i killed the .run.. [12:58] cfhowlett, my two other computers run LTS as well [12:58] only my entertainment computer doesn't [12:59] erle-, cutting edge = bleeding edge [13:00] hi guys having networking issues with 14.04, and i cant figure out why [13:01] up until 2 days ago, this all worked perfectly, then i rebooted the server... [13:01] i have an onboard nic (eth0) with 10.0.0.221/24 and no gateway [13:02] and a dual port intel nic, which are slaves in my 802.3ad lacp bond0 [13:02] Anyone knows a screenshot tool that randomly generates a name? [13:02] the switch and /proc/net/bonding/bond0 show the bond being up and running. [13:02] ifconfig shows bond0 has 192.168.65.221, subnet 255.255.252.0 [13:03] and route -n shows my default gateway is 192.168.65.1 === cerberus is now known as Guest32859 [13:03] any ideas why nothing on my network can ping 192.168.65.221, and why the ubuntu box cant ping anything over the bonded connection? [13:06] Hi there, I've read multiverse repo is for non free apps, and I can see that when using apt-get download virtualbox it download it from multiverse but virtualbox is free no? [13:07] ohad, vbox is "free" but there 2 versions. the version in repos doesn't support guest-additions [13:07] but I can download the virtualbox-guest-additions-iso too [13:07] what does it mean it doesn't support it? [13:08] ohad, if it's in repos, you can install it. [13:08] Im not sure I understand then what multiverse means for non-free ?:X [13:09] !repos [13:09] The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. [13:09] Anyone knows a screenshot tool that randomly generates a name? [13:09] oh I see, thanks!:) [13:11] and what did you mean "2 versions" ? [13:11] ohad, https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads compare to the one in repos === falk is now known as falkowich [13:12] how do I disable the animation on the left bar when i minimize something? [13:14] 14.04, how can i run a toggle script .desktop file on the launcher repeatedly without encountering this 5 second delay that the launcher imposes: clicking the icon once, script runs fine, but trying to click icon again will not run the script because the launcher is busy and the icon is pulsating red for 5 seconds. after the pulsing finishes, i can click the icon to launch the toggle script .desktop again. [13:14] is there any way to configure or disable the delay so i can repeatedly click the icon under 5 seconds at a time? === tcpman is now known as Guest96344 [13:17] hello [13:18] cfhowlett, older version? [13:19] ohad, the version direct from Sun is the commercial version [13:20] sun? [13:20] oracle [13:20] sounds right, and the one in the repo ? its not same ? [13:21] ohad, nope. the sun version has some extra capabilities [13:21] cfhowlett: Eh... [13:21] cfhowlett: That is not quite correct. [13:21] theadmin, please elucidate :) [13:21] where is it documented? [13:21] The version on virtualbox.org is fully open-source. All the closed-source additions (such as VRDP) are part of the Oracle Virtualbox Extension Pack. [13:22] * cfhowlett awaiting sage advice from theadmin ... [13:22] The versions themselves are identical though. [13:22] They used to have a closed-source version and an open-source version, true, but they kinda scrapped that [13:23] can someone help me how to update grub after ubuntu 14.04 upgrade? [13:23] theadmin, the sun oracle version shows a more advanced version number ... typical package lag time getting it into ubuntu I suppose?

[13:25] OnceMe, read the wiki. instructions are there [13:25] OnceMe: No, you should just run "sudo update-grub", that should help [13:25] Hey [13:26] http://pastebin.com/BB2rQwP5 [13:26] hmmm [13:26] windows is not found as I can see.

[13:28] That is, unless you are on EFI, in which case something's really weird. [13:28] yes Im on EFI [13:28] Wait, sda8? How can boot be on a logical partition? [13:28] dunno why [13:28] Oh. [13:28] anyone had a issue with additional display on ubuntu 14.04? laptop, hdmi, nvidia, desktop is stretched on two displays instead of separate desktop on each of monitors [13:29] I dont know why Im on EFI [13:29] that EFI took me a day to install ubuntu [13:29] Then this is even weirder... With EFI, /boot should be the first partition of the drive, shouldn't it? [13:29] is that up to my motherboard [13:29] OnceMe: Yeah [13:29] OnceMe, and you don't know why you did it? [13:29] stu[id mb [13:29] I dont [13:29] eshlox, try setting the settings in the control panel of Ubuntu. [13:29] OnceMe: You can most likely switch to "legacy mode" or something and it will act just like an old BIOS board, but you'll have to reinstall all operating systems.

[13:30] gryffyn: It can't be reset to BIOS, but it can be configured to act in a similar manner. [13:30] its UEFI [13:30] gryffyn: i've tried all combinations from control panel ;-) [13:30] or EFI [13:30] how do I know [13:30] gryffyn: I have an EFI machine, in legacy mode, it runs basically the same as old BIOS machines, without weird requirements for partitions or secure boot or whatever [13:31] i'd like to limit a single process on my server so that it can use up to 20 MB, then it gets killed. is this possible? [13:31] OnceMe: UEFI and EFI are the same thing [13:31] on sda2 I have windows [13:31] Anyone knows a screenshot tool that randomly generates a name? [13:31] how to put it in grub? [13:31] how do I disable the animation on the left bar when i minimize something? [13:31] eshlox, then have you tried using xrandr? [13:31] are here people with thinkpad experience, i just today installed 14.04 on my thinkpad t60 and it works nicely, i'm just thinking is there anything special that the system needs on these machines? [13:31] hhhhhhhh512, there's a whole linux / thinkpad on reddit IIRC [13:32] OnceMe, disable secureboot and fast boot. [13:32] in bios? [13:32] and that should fix what? [13:32] oh really, didn't know that, will search that then [13:32] hhhhhhhh512, see /lenovo and /thinkpad [13:32] OnceMe, or in Windows. Then you will need to reinstall Buntu, then just use default settings. [13:33] no [13:33] Im reinstalling windows 8 32 bit to windows 8.1 64 bit now [13:33] so I want to reinstall windows but to leave ubuntu 14.04 untouched [13:33] Hi... I've recently installed Lubuntu on my laptop, but I the Wi-Fi card isn't detected by default. The manufacturer has released the driver for linux though, and I've downloaded the gzip. Now how do I install it? [13:33] I want to play watch dogs I have cpu i7 [13:33] dslowekds, that's the broadcom driver, yes? [13:34] 9.1 on cpuboss review so I wanna play games [13:34] cfhowlett - not broadcom.. mediatek. MT7630 [13:34] OnceMe, then you will need to install with regular settings, then switch to non-secureboot and non-fastboot. [13:34] ? [13:34] dslowekds, oh. well, install instructions should be in the .zip or on the dl page. [13:34] I dont understand a thing [13:34] I just want windows in my grub [13:35] But really, a reinstall of everything takes care of all the hassles. There will be many. Your best option is really to upgrade windows, then reinstall Ubuntu. [13:35] gryffyn, sad to say, I agree ^^^^ [13:35] I dont know where to disable secureboot and fastboot [13:35] and what are those [13:36] dslowekds, unzip the archive then execute the installer file. [13:36] cfhowlett - they are, but they don't seem to work. Then there's steps suggested by others on a launchpad link - but those don't work too.. so I wanted someone to hand hold me through the thing :P [13:36] OnceMe, you need to boot too windows. [13:36] YES BUT I CANT [13:36] cfhowlett, the best way by far! [13:36] what part of windows is not in grub you do not understand? [13:36] OnceMe, then download UBCD. [13:36] ??? [13:37] I just want to place windows in grubv thats all [13:37] I dont want rerinstall [13:37] just windows in grub ok? [13:37] OnceMe, did you try reinstalling grub? [13:37] OnceMe, Well then, really you need to just configure grub properly. You may need to custom write your grub.conf. [13:38] fstab: http://pastebin.com/jkmptkzn [13:38] cfhowlett:no, how [13:38] !grub2 | OnceMe, [13:38] OnceMe,: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [13:38] OnceMe, see the "restore" options [13:38] sudo grub-install /dev/sda8 [13:38] is that it?

X.X [15:32] what ubuntu? [15:32] lotuspsychje i was using this guide http://www.jfwhome.com/2014/03/07/perfect-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-asus-transformer-book-t100/ but discovered from people on here that i needed to use nomodeset etc [15:32] SpeendaSh: it could be that there's not enough power to go around [15:32] so many issues, it's a big headache, and myself i am at fault for not doing my research beforehand and wiping my drive [15:32] daftykins, even though it's a desktop PC ? o: [15:33] SpeendaSh: assuming you have enough USB ports, can you juggle them around so that everything works? [15:33] bloopletech so no suggestions? [15:33] daftykins, i tried some different position... didn't worked... [15:34] lotuspsychje: just looked. there is no option to specify to remove anything in wine in bleachbit..just temp files..but the whole thing got removed. [15:34] daftykins, could it be that my alimentation isn't powerfull enough ? [15:34] SpeendaSh: ali... what? :D [15:34] guys, how to refresh mobprobe? [15:34] Shaan: sorry I wrote a comment to you but addressed it wrong. "ok, looks good so far. If you do 'sudo iptables -L', what output do you get?"

[15:35] bloopletech i bleieve its empty [15:35] lotuspsychje: don't know either. the only thing out of the ordinary i did in the last few hours was run bleachbit and install nvida drivers [15:36] hello? [15:36] Has anybody had could not switched the monitor configuration/could not set the configuration for CRTC 64 [15:36] SpeendaSh: oh the power supply. nah that won't affect USB power, more the motherboard itself. how many USB items do you have in total and what are they exactly? if you have just mouse, keyboard and wifi adapter do they work? [15:36] how to reload/refresh mobprobe config without having to restart computer? [15:37] thepheinex: that's some of the worst english i've seen in a long time, do you perhaps speak another language so we can point you where to go?

I'm facing problems, while installing ubuntu along with windows 8. partition table is not visible while installing.. can i get any solution? [15:49] sennn: i dont get what you mean? do you mean the program menu etc? or tha programming language commands? [15:50] brahdude: start unity-tweak-tool and check that in the settings [15:50] k1l_, programming language commands [15:50] Time indicator is ticked on k1l_ [15:50] sennn, Most programming languages are English-centric and use English keywords and function/class names etc in the standard library. Most languages allow you to write your own variable/class names in whateevr language you like [15:50] sennn: i think that depends on the program language [15:50] brahdude: hmm, maybe something is gone wrong. i would suggest a relogin [15:50] willtry brb [15:51] thanks [15:51] brahdude, go into systemsettings, time & date , and enable time on your panel again, easy [15:51] Hey.

[16:39] AcIdBaTh, CD or USB? [16:39] maybe sudo grub-install /dev/sda8 [16:39] CD [16:39] maybe sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 [16:39] because on sda1 is my win [16:40] fwaodka best bet is to go with the default option the script suggests [16:40] After downloading the iso i did the md5sum and checked it and it matched the one on the site. What im not getting is ppl r saying check the usb [16:40] AcIdBaTh, what errors do you get on installing grub [16:40] AcIdBaTh, wait what? [16:40] AcIdBaTh, you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM#Check_the_CDSA [16:41] AcIdBaTh, use the above to verify the USB [16:41] Im using the startup disk maker and when it goes to install the bootloader it fails [16:41] everything else copied to the usb fine but it wont boot [16:41] AcIdBaTh, make a new USB. and verify it. [16:41] ?????// [16:41] maybe sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 [16:42] sda1 is system reserved and sda2 is where win is [16:42] /dev/sda [16:42] OnceMe, asked and answered. we TOLD you to install it to /dev/sda [16:42] 3 times [16:42] AcIdBaTh, ubuntu 32 or 64 bit?

[16:45] I also trie unetbooting and it does the same thing. copies everything ok then fails to install the bootloader [16:46] normally installing the bootloader, unetbootin will ask for your admin pass [16:46] i don't have easy physical access to my ubuntu box anymore, but i log in with SSH and i want to apply the updates. i see "75 packages can be updated. 32 updates are security updates." when i log in. how do i do those updates via SSH? [16:46] so it asks 2x your pass [16:46] Toqoz:can yousee my pastebin [16:46] and help me change it dev/sda2 [16:47] find file where you can edit grub configure [16:47] where win is. [16:47] thasts from grub.cfg [16:47] it does ask just like the startup disk maker and after i put in my password it fails [16:47] zaxius: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [16:47] I can't right now, on phone [16:48] there's lots on Google though [16:48] I had a similar issue [16:48] zaxius can i talk privately? [16:49] AcIdBaTh, how many hard drives do you have? [16:49] look along lines of "changing grub 3 boot menu options" [16:49] n3on_waves: sure [16:50] 2 in my laptop [16:51] is there anyway i can install ubuntu on one hdd from ubuntu? that way i wouldnt need to make the usb [16:54] hi [16:56] I have wpa_supplicant running on my 14.04 ... but I don't know why. I thought this needed to be manually configured to start?? [16:57] So I guess the question is... how do I turn it off so it doesn' autostart? [16:58] GDM desktop selection menu isn't wanting to show. I just installed GDM (which apparently KDE installation removed), the menu showed up once, but now it won't. [16:59] skinux, what distro are you in?? [16:59] I'm using KDE right now [17:00] I want to go to Ubuntu default, but the menu won't show to make the selection again. [17:00] skinux: Why not use kdm then? [17:00] Because I want to use GDM/Ubuntu desktop as primary. [17:01] skinux, so to be clear: you want the gnome-ubuntu as your primary with KDE as an option? [17:01] How does telling me to use KDM solve the problem? I'm pretty sure it doesn't. [17:01] Yes. [17:01] skinux, and you actually install gnome-ubuntu, right? [17:01] How do you get your HDMI port on your laptop working in ubuntu. I plug my laptop into a monitor/TV and nothing shows. [17:01] I've already logged into it once, and it was installed before KDE. [17:02] skinux, ??? not answering my question ... [17:02] Yes, it's installed. [17:02] skinux, very good. and you installed KDE ... ONLY, right? as in sudo apt-get install KDE. [17:03] I installed the full "Kubuntu" desktop environment. [17:03] Hello Shortcake you want to see your computer screen on your TV right ? [17:03] yes [17:03] TV screen or HDMI monitor [17:03] I had the same problem before [17:04] You have to open setting [17:04] shortcake: Fn-fancyscreensymbolonyourcomputer [17:04] Ubuntu 12.10; I get this message when trying to do an apt-get upgrade: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated, and it asked if it should install anyway. It doesn't tell me which keys are missing, so it's tempting ... [17:04] shortcake: or xrandr or other randr frontends [17:04] And to click on display [17:05] Normally your Tv screen is recognised by Ubuntu [17:05] skinux, that's different. [17:05] awesome [17:05] thanks Detn [17:05] i see the settings here [17:05] And you have to select the option : [17:05] skinux, if you ONLY want the KDE option, delete the kubuntu-desktop, reinstall ubuntu-desktop and then install KDE [17:05] jae 12.10 is eol (end of life) [17:05] I have Ubuntu Unity, Gnome, and KDE environments installed. I simply want to know why the selection menu isn't showing like it's supposed to. [17:06] Integrated display [17:06] Normally that works [17:06] just go ahead an install jae [17:07] Anyone tried GDB static compile in 64bit base Linux? [17:07] skinux, because the kde desktop adds its own apps including menu management and they can conflict with the others. thus my suggestion to only install the DE not the full disto+desktop [17:07] cfhowlett: I already got the menu once, logged into Ubuntu Unity and then back into KDE to make sure KDE still worked. So why do i need to uninstall/install to get the menu to come up again? [17:09] skinux, you mentioned things being removed. reinstalling your primary desktop gets you back to normal === ubuntu is now known as Guest93370 [17:11] I found a work-around. I selected another user account (which should have been hidden), then re-selected my user account, and then the menu would show. So, I'm back in Ubuntu Unity! :D [17:11] hi, I am trying to reinstall grub2 using this guide: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd but I keep getting grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory. when I run grub-install .. any ideas? [17:12] So, now I'll ask....how do I hide some user accounts from the login screen? [17:12] I have mounted the right partitions [17:12] it shows pure-ftpd, and a couple of others which aren't actually supposed to be human-used. [17:13] skinux, on the login screen? what the hey??? [17:13] cfhowlett, but there is a way to hide that stuff. I'll look for it. [17:14] Yes, the loggin screen shows a couple of accounts that exist only for purpose of having localhost FTP/S service. [17:14] skinux, http://www.tejasbarot.com/2014/04/25/hide-users-login-as-other-user-from-login-screen-ubuntu-14-04-lts-trusty-tahr/#axzz3Hq1Ni6Or [17:14] ok this is a dumb question and i can't believe i can't suss out why...but: plug in a usb drive and it automounts, plug in another usb drive with lvm and it doesn't but it *does* automatically vgscan --mknodes since i see it it /dev/mapper/ so how does one automount lvm disks? [17:14] Such service, at least used to be, required for easier upgrading of a Content Management System. [17:15] Also, what are a few excellent blogs for keeping up with the latest stuff about Ubuntu/Kubuntu? [17:16] And I don't mean OMG-Ubuntu [17:17] skinux, several mailing lists are available in the ubuntu support section. security, news, etc. [17:17] I don't necessarily won't to hide ALL other user accounts, so that tutorial isn't quite what I'm looking for. [17:18] skinux, http://askubuntu.com/questions/92349/how-do-i-hide-a-particular-user-from-the-lightdm-login-screen [17:19] what happened to ubuntu one? [17:19] Leviticus, it's gone. [17:19] why [17:19] Leviticus: no more [17:19] Leviticus: it's gone poof [17:19] Leviticus, too many reasons to go into. find an alternative [17:19] I have a tiny WordPress.com blog which I'd like to turn into a some kind of hybrid between personal and cash-earning blog. So, I'd like to be able to make either weekly, bi-weekly, or possibly monthly articles. [17:20] why did they close it [17:20] Leviticus better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [17:20] nooo waaa [17:20] but ok [17:20] Leviticus, http://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrSbhtZFlVULg0ACYhXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTEzcnU0M2Q4BHNlYwNzcgRwb3MDMwRjb2xvA2dxMQR2dGlkA1ZJUDUyM18x/RV=2/RE=1414891226/RO=10/RU=http%3a%2f%2fblog.canonical.com%2f2014%2f04%2f02%2fshutting-down-ubuntu-one-file-services%2f/RK=0/RS=HGlc74sJVjP6E5OkHxsI6hxbuX4- [17:20] Leviticus, eeeh. sorry [17:20] http://blog.canonical.com/2014/04/02/shutting-down-ubuntu-one-file-services/ [17:24] nooooo waaaaa [17:25] at least google drive works [17:25] IS OMG-Ubuntu run by Ubuntu stuff or independently? [17:25] skinux, independently [17:25] Leviticus: aye, sucks but what can ya do? i liked it since it was integrated out of the box but no more :/ === MeltedLux is now known as MeltedDed [17:25] Leviticus, it's done. time to move on. [17:26] ok [17:26] i typed this http://paste.ubuntu.com/8777152/ into my sudo crontab -e except it doesnt run [17:27] i typed this http://paste.ubuntu.com/8777152/ into my sudo crontab -e except it doesnt run ActionParsnip [17:27] hello everybody [17:27] is there a way to switch back to upstart? on 14.10 here [17:27] test [17:28] baller_ i've been experimenting with rtcwake myself, lately... i learned that cron does not work with rtcwake [17:28] Naphatul: switch back? did you change anything? [17:28] k1l_, yeah i switched to systemd, thought it was further along but there are quite a bit of issues === mat__ is now known as Guest29773 [17:28] MonkeyDust: so how can i do it [17:28] baller_ not, not with cron [17:29] baller_: if you run: sudo crontab -l | pastebinit , you will pastebin the whole crontab [17:29] hi all [17:29] Naphatul: so revert the way you did [17:29] ? [17:29] hi all [17:29] sorry for the silly question, but I have two systems who each show “Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS” in /etc/issue, but they have radically different kernel versions. Why is this? [17:30] aberrant: run updates [17:30] ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8777183/ [17:30] one has 3.13.0-37-generic #64, and the other has 2.6.32-042stab093.5 #1 [17:30] k1l_, how? will just instaling upstart replace it fine? [17:30] MonkeyDust: what program do you recommed [17:30] how do i run a windows app on ubuntu? [17:30] ActionParsnip: I’ve done apt-get update / upgrade and nothing’s showing as needing to be updated. [17:30] aberrant: hardware enablement stack [17:30] aberrant: Sounds like the latter you have a VPS maybe. [17:30] Leviticus, you don't. [17:30] Leviticus: you can check the winehq database and see if wine can run it, you can also consider a virtual machine [17:30] Naphatul: i dont know what you did to change [17:30] rypervenche: they’re both VPSes. [17:30] oh yeah wine [17:30] aberrant: is the kernel running your hardware on each system? [17:30] Leviticus, MAYBE some apps run kind of in wine ... maybe [17:30] k1l_: I don’t know what you mean by that, sorry. [17:31] aberrant: there are backport kernels. [17:31] k1l_, i installed systemd [17:31] k1l_: is there a way to get them to the same version? [17:31] particularly the systemd-sysv package [17:31] I mean, at least the same major version? [17:31] aberrant: but on a vps the kernel is shared with the host. so that is a possible cause === MeltedDed is now known as MeltedLux [17:31] baller_ what's the purpose of that cron job? [17:31] aberrant: is the kernel working ok on each sytem? [17:31] ActionParsnip: yes. [17:31] I ran an upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 - it failed at some point. Systems is now showing as 14.10... but running a litlte odd. [17:32] aberrant: then why do you want to change the kernel at all if it is doing its job? [17:32] ActionParsnip: because I need these VPSes to be as close to mirrors of each other as possible. [17:32] mat1tc: did 14.04 run ok? [17:32] aberrant: see if you can insatll different kernels. but if the host only supports one kernel in that setting you are done. so ask the hoster [17:32] MonkeyDust: to sleep and wake at certain times [17:32] aberrant: but the kernel is doing its job. Why fix it when it's not broken? [17:33] ActionParsnip: because I don’t want it to be the source of some obscure problem down the road [17:33] ActionParsnip: Yeah, it was on there for a while. Just before the upgrade to 14.10, following a routine update, the fan suddenly started to run very high (but temp wasn't high) [17:33] aberrant: what will you gain by changing the kernel? [17:33] ActionParsnip: having a true hot backup, for one. [17:33] aberrant: see this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack or talk to the hoster [17:33] aberrant: compare sources.list to see what repos are enabled. [17:33] its nothing we can do if the hoster block stuff. [17:33] baller_ you can make your machine go to sleep and wake up sequentially, by using rtcwake ... && rtcwake ... [17:34] k1l_: thanks. [17:34] ActionParsnip: thanks. will check [17:34] hi, first time ubuntu installation here [17:34] mat1tc: you do know Utopic is only supported til Julh 2015. Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019..... [17:34] ActionParsnip: Yep [17:35] MonkeyDust: i want it automatic [17:35] I installed from usb, but now when I boot, there are no new options, just the usb boot [17:35] mat1tc: you could run: sudo apt-get -f install , make sure the packages are squared off [17:35] ActionParsnip: Have doen that, no issues. [17:35] baller_ or sleep ... rtcwake ... [17:35] so no idea how to revert back to upstart/ [17:35] sources are a bit different, ActionParsnip - the older kernel has, for example, “trusty main restricted universe” and the newer one has “trusty multiverse" [17:36] 有点象90年代的chat [17:36] aberrant: if you grep for multiverse, do you have it defined on another line? [17:36] !cn | abcdefgh, [17:36] abcdefgh,: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [17:36] ActionParsnip: there is no multiverse on the older kernel’s sources. [17:36] ActionParsnip: After the upgrade virtualbox woudln't work (though the version from oracle's website works fine) and cpufreq no longe lists all the governors for my cpu [17:36] ryancarey123: can you boot the installed OS or will it only boot the USB? [17:37] using asus F551ca, ubuntu 14.04 [17:37] aberrant: could add it in [17:37] I can only boot the usb [17:37] at least that's how it seems to me [17:37] baller_ what you can try: write a bash script with rtcwake commands and invoke that script with a cron job [17:37] ActionParsnip: hm. OK. I’ll just copy the sources.list over and see what happens :) [17:37] cheese freeze in ubuntu 14.10 [17:37] I am using ubuntu now, but every time I log out, any text files etc that I created disappear [17:37] so presumably this is 'try ubuntu' [17:37] ryancarey123: check BIOS is set to boot the internal drive [17:37] hi [17:37] MonkeyDust: why wont it work how i have it [17:38] michele_: try guvcview [17:38] baller_ not sure myself, i tried it too [17:38] does ubuntu use cookies to track your activity and report it to canonical? [17:38] installing virtualbox form the repos is not the best bet [17:38] ryancarey123, remove the USB. on boot, set your boot options to #1 Hard drive [17:38] n3on_waves: why not? [17:38] Leviticus: if yiu [17:39] MonkeyDust: can you help me write a bash script [17:39] ok AP and cfhowlett, I'll remove the USB then do that [17:39] Leviticus: sorry. If you use the amazon lens, yes [17:39] thx folks [17:39] how do i get rid of amazon lens? [17:39] don't start [17:39] Leviticus: uninstall the shopping lens [17:39] synaptic? [17:39] !nolens | Leviticus [17:39] anyone have any idea why my sound isnt working today? worked fine for the past 2 weeks. worked fine lastnight. literally nothing has changed. and now today my sound wont work? any ideas? [17:39] ActionParsnip: modifying sources.list didn’t work: “0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.” [17:39] baller_ you can ask in #bash [17:40] Mightcould3: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [17:40] cat? [17:40] how do i uninstall the amazon lens? [17:40] aberrant: what kernels are we talking about? [17:40] i searched synaptic and couldnt find it [17:40] aberrant: you could copy the sources.list from one to the other, may help [17:40] Leviticus: search software centre...too obvious? [17:40] ActionParsnip: if its vps its the hosts kernel anyway [17:40] !shopping [17:40] If you wish not to see "More Suggestions" from places like Amazon in your Ubuntu, simply remove the package unity-lens-shopping, or adjust your Privacy settings as shown here: http://goo.gl/kFO4u .

No joy. [17:41] ActionParsnip, output was ubuntu 14.04 LTS /n /l [17:41] ActionParsnip, well i havent used ubuntu in the longest time i am actually shocked myself i installed it on my laptop last night [17:41] aberrant: well, 2.6 is not a 14.04 kernel at all. so talk to the hoster [17:41] Leviticus: sudo apt-get --purge remove unity-lens-shopping [17:41] k1l_: that’s what I was thinking, but /etc/issue shows 14.04_1 [17:41] aberrant: its a VPS issue. talk to the hoster [17:41] k1l_: ok [17:42] actually Action you know a lot [17:42] so yeah this makes no sense to me. theres no reason for sound not to be working, i restarted 3 times and the result is the same, sound worked fine the past two weeks, now its not working at all [17:42] Mightcould3: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* ~/.config/pulse* [17:42] Mightcould3: wait a few seconds then try some sound things [17:42] umm ubuntu-desktop* unity* unity-scope-home* its going to remove those three [17:42] ActionParsnip: any idea [17:43] is it safe [17:43] Leviticus: you only want the shopping lens out [17:43] ActionParsnip, ok did that, still no sound [17:43] yes but it selected those to remove as well [17:43] i can just turn it off [17:43] ok, email sent. Thanks. [17:43] Leviticus: search for "privacy" in Dash [17:44] ActionParsnip, yeah its still not working [17:44] baller_ is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/61708/automatically-sleep-and-wake-up-at-specific-times [17:44] thanks [17:45] !sound | Mightcould3 [17:45] now ubuntu is flickering my G19 keyboard screen. i'm getting really fed up with how unstable linux is. [17:45] Mightcould3: 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. [17:45] and there’s a guy with no shortage of confidence :) [17:46] ActionParsnip, how bout a command to start pulse audio back up? [17:46] Mightcould3: My sound randomly stops working now and again... have never quite figured out why (restarting the laptop, or pulseaudio doesn't help) but plugging my headphones in and out does weirdly enough... [17:46] Mightcould3: it gets restarted automayically, hence I advised waiting a few seconds..... [17:47] ok i guess i could try unplugging it. [17:47] hi all [17:47] :D [17:47] how are all [17:48] not so good [17:48] Mightcould3: try a reboot [17:48] ActionParsnip: Any other suggestions as to what I could try ? [17:48] ok replugging it now has the spectrometer showing in the playback of the audio settings window. however i notice my speakers arent listen [17:49] and the buttons to test the speakers isnt here [17:50] ugh, im gonna have to turn on my phone if i want netflix today i guess. [17:51] MonkeyDust: when i run the rtcwake why does my sytem clock stop running [17:53] hi again. I tried to add new boot device for my new Linux install but didn't know what directory to provide [17:53] why isnt reiserfs aviable to install on [17:53] !reiserfs [17:53] reiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext4, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html === MagicalPumpkin is now known as magical_mystery [17:53] !btrfs [17:53] Btrfs is a new filesystem available for Ubuntu. It is currently marked as experimental, and should not be used for important data. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs [17:53] !ext4 [17:54] Leviticus: you can interact with the bot privately, rather than spamming the channel.. [17:54] popey, i just noticed that [17:55] what should I put in 'path for boot option' on new default Ubuntu installation? [17:56] baller_ yes, i noticed that too, there's always a one hour difference... it's to do with "assuming UTC time"... not sure what that mean [17:56] s [17:57] MonkeyDust: i turned that off [17:57] tyancarey123, where is this option or what is it? [17:58] bubba, this is in my bios [17:58] tyancarey123, This a uefi? [17:58] I just did a first time Ubuntu install from USB [17:58] uefi, yes. not bios [17:58] new laptop [17:59] tyancarey123, Ah, cool that just helps us recognize more, a few know uefi here. [17:59] Asus 551ca [17:59] welp, no go. restarted 2 more times. still no audio. there has to be a more simple explanation for this. there has been no hardware or software changes what so ever. how a google link or a how to webpage isn't going to be the answer. What could cause a working system with no errors to suddenly, overnight lose all audio? [18:00] install seemed to go fine but can't boot to the Ubuntu partition, only USB or win8 [18:00] Mightcould3: pavucontrol and play with the settings? [18:00] tyancarey123: make sure fastboot and secureboot is disabled [18:01] yes, they are fisanled [18:01] disabled* [18:01] Hi guys [18:01] MrElendig, well the best guess i have, after reveiwing the settings window. is that there isnt any listing for my speakers. i see ALSA in playback, on HDA analog stereo out. put under playback or output devs, there is not listing for my speakers. and they are plugging it, i checked that [18:02] tyancarey123, not sure if you had seen this wiki. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting [18:02] My question is how update bios from linux and thanks [18:02] Airbander, rarely from linux, a bootable media is sometimes provided, besides a upgrade from the OEM. [18:03] ok thanks [18:03] Mightcould3: lsof /dev/snd/* [18:03] Airbander, unless your bios can get a bios file from usb, you will need windows to do that. [18:03] Mightcould3: check dmesg too btw [18:03] Airbander: that depends on the manufacturer and model. [18:03] thanks for answers guys [18:04] HI ! [18:04] Airbander, You would have to research the original goal it is possible, but generally I've seen with danger warnings as in any bios flash. [18:05] MonkeyDust: so do i need to do it an hour forward or hour back [18:05] Airbander: most mobos supports flashing from usb [18:05] except msi [18:05] thanks guys [18:06] OK. I will check my uefi firmware [18:06] heres the output of that command http://pastebin.com/6T3S4wuR [18:06] Hi, I'm trying to install xampp, and in preparation removed a previous apache2 install. When trying to start the xampp apache server though, it complains that another server is already running. I can't seem to find this "phantom" server though. [18:07] !xampp [18:07] We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. [18:07] ubottu, roger that. [18:08] hey guys. is there any way I can make my laptop beep from my phone? [18:08] im trying really hard not to install windows. but i need a OS that is stable and just works. is everyone else as clueless as i am? is this like my auth service a few days ago, sometimes linux just breaks? [18:09] Does anyone know how to add games to the spring engine in Linux? [18:09] nahtnam, give us more of your plan. [18:10] bubbasaures [18:10] well my brother is an asshole [18:10] so he gets my computer taken away [18:10] and now I need it vacj [18:11] back [18:11] but I don't know where it is [18:11] all I have on me is my android phone [18:11] Hi, sorry to add to the bombshell of people who post their problems here but I've been trying to get this problem solved for days and still haven't fixed the issue (after hours of googling the problem) and that's the wireless adapter! Broadcom Corporation BCM4320 is the wireless card in my machine. [18:11] nahtnam, keep the language clean and directed at the OS issue, others will help. [18:11] oh OK. sorry. === magical_mystery is now known as magic [18:12] my laptop is running 14.04 and it might be in standby [18:12] most likely connected to WiFi [18:13] Walsh, You have seen the wiki? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx === abcdefgh is now known as youi386 [18:15] yeah bubbasaures the only thing is, I never know if you need internet connection for the links provided. [18:16] Walsh, That link explains a install with and without the net, read it carefully, it is the best we have in this area beyond the channel for any final tweaks. [18:16] OK. I will install grub2 [18:16] Anyone using Trinity Desktop on Ubuntu? [18:17] Are there any conflicts between KDE and Trinity? [18:17] that's great! thanks bubbasaures I will give it a read through and hopefully come back here with a working wireless adapter on Linux!! :) most probably many more questions to come as this is my first time using Linux but I really do want a change from Windows. [18:17] can u run os x in a VM [18:18] Walsh, Cool, I can just point out the link, wifi is not been an issue here so that I have to really do more than boot and go. [18:18] Yes, k0nichiwa ! Use Google. Hackintosh is another way of installing MAC on PC! [18:18] okay, thanks for the heads up mate :) bubbasaures [18:19] under what licenses are the mascots? [18:20] frog, ask them [18:20] the logos (or however they are called) [18:20] hey guys [18:20] anybody on? [18:21] danishanish,? [18:21] Yeah, i had a question [18:21] new to ubuntu [18:21] and i was wondering where you find the .bash_profile? [18:21] danishanish, Fire! Im ready! [18:21] danishanish: it's not available in ubuntu [18:21] is it just the .profile? [18:21] danishanish, Under /home/user [18:21] lemme check [18:22] yeah [18:22] so my profile thing is under /etc/ [18:22] What? [18:22] danishanish: no [18:22] .profile [18:22] OK. I am installing grub2 but to build I need to know where the configure directory is [18:22] under what licenses are the mascots or logos (or whatever they are called)? [18:22] you are talking about .profile and not /etc/? what do you want to do at all? you are mixing things here [18:23] ^ Ellaborate! danishanish [18:23] sorry kil, i was looking for my .profile script. cant find it under /home/user/ [18:23] used ls -l [18:23] nothing's there [18:23] tyancarey123: it's in /boot/grub/grub.cfg [18:23] danishanish: make it "ls -al" [18:23] ok [18:24] danishanish: .folders or .files are "hidden" files. [18:24] hi guys. anyoane use nagios in ubuntu platform? [18:24] uniz_Z: some do [18:24] ITS THERE [18:24] THANK YOU GUYS [18:24] hello, I'm trying to install the Ubuntu minimum install from USB. Problem is that my computer detects USB as /dev/sda and my main HD as /dev/sdb, I need to install GRUB on /dev/sdb but when I reboot, main HD becomes /dev/sda without that USB drive, so GRUB can't boot since he thinks it is on /dev/sdb now [18:25] it seems that GRUB is generated by a script, so I cannot change the line in grub.cfg to simply change it back to /dev/sda [18:25] what about LILO ? [18:25] danishanish, Welcome! [18:26] wait nvm [18:26] entreri: a boot loader [18:26] I am trying to set nagios to monitor the traffic of my hosting which is owned by a company where I bought the hosting. Can I set it? [18:26] the eric [18:26] the* [18:26] hi i have a question! is it my hardware when ubuntu makes my fan loud or is it ubuntu? it only happens with ubuntu and not with windows 7 [18:26] thx* [18:26] entreri, That is a confusing description, more context would help. [18:26] does anyone have any recommended System Performance HUD's for Ubuntu 14.04? [18:26] something that can sit in my top bar. [18:27] uniz_Z: as long as the traffic from the service can talk back to he management system then yes [18:27] tyancarey123: np [18:28] Izaya: why would you want that? [18:28] ActionParsnip, I'm doing some low level development work [18:28] Izaya: system load indicator [18:28] and I want to keep an eye on my system's performance. [18:29] ActionParsnip: any link I can read about how to config? [18:29] thank you k1l_ [18:29] Izaya: http://askubuntu.com/questions/29757/what-can-replace-system-monitoring-in-the-top-gnome-panel-in-unity [18:30] uniz_Z: nothing you cant find yourself online. Try Youtube too. There may be a channel here on Launchpad for it as well [18:30] thank you ActionParsnip [18:33] hola [18:33] hola Clortebint [18:33] hola uniz :P [18:34] LOL me puse el nombre equivocado === Clortebint is now known as Clortbeint [18:35] mejor [18:35] bubbasaures: when I installed Ubuntu mini.iso, I installed it on /dev/sdb because /dev/sda was taken by my live USB drive, then I installed GRUB on /dev/sdb (where I installed Ubuntu...). Now that I removed my live USB drive to boot my computer, /dev/sdb (my hard drive) became /dev/sda, but GRUB still thinks that it should boot /dev/sdb [18:35] what line should I modify in GRUB to fix this ?? [18:37] entreri: grub should use the uuid [18:37] ( i think ) [18:37] entreri: is this a dual boot? [18:37] EriC^^: no [18:37] entreri: what does grub say? [18:38] EriC^^: nothing, since my computer can't find it on /dev/sda [18:39] entreri: when you boot the pc what happens? [18:40] EriC^^: The BIOS and then it becomes black [18:41] entreri: if grub can't find the root partition [18:41] it should mention it [18:42] and give you a grub prompt i guess [18:43] entreri, If you boot from the mini do you get the install through a grub menu? [18:44] how to generate ssh key? [18:44] entreri: is the hdd selected in the bios? [18:44] i have a password [18:45] but i want to pass a key on my ssh [18:45] entreri, grub can be put in the mbr from the install terminal, or a live cd.

[19:40] ubuntuaddicted: ^^^ [19:40] ubuntuaddicted: again: that is not a regular ubuntu kernel. the 3.16 is the regular utopic kernel. you do use a PPA [19:40] K1l_ - phrases like "you should know that" - are not really productive, and are kinda patronizing.. kinda mean.. don't cha think?

Version 3.13.0.39.46 (trusty), package size 2 kB, installed size 28 kB [19:43] no necessarily... he might have selected to use the ppa kernal (w/ nVidia support) simply because he thought the installer suggested it because of his hardware. [19:43] ubuntuaddicted: 3.13.0.39 [19:44] ActionParsnip, and yes, my nvidia driver was working just fine with a 3.13 kernel but I wanted to try out the newer kernel for xbox one controller support [19:44] ubuntuaddicted: the mainline kernel is not a regular ubuntu kernel like its used in utopic. it lacks some stuff like restricted modules, typical ubuntu patches,.... so this is not really surprising, tbh. [19:44] ubuntuaddicted: then i'd ask in #linux as the Ubuntu kernel works fine and we dont support PPApackages here [19:44] just saying - we don't have to be snarky- that's all. meaning.. this is a support outlet/ channel [19:45] *shrug* [19:45] LoganGray: no, supported kernels will only suggest supported software, Ubuntyu won't suggest unsupported software [19:45] Thats user error [19:46] DJones: pebcac :-) [19:46] ActionParsnip: Yup [19:47] ok, thanks for the help guys. so it wouldn't be advisable to ignore the gcc mistmatch?

[19:47] ubuntuaddicted: we cant support 3rd party kernels you find on the web in here. We only support the official packages [19:48] can anybody help me with my GRUB problem? [19:48] ubuntuaddicted: What does the person who created the PPA say about your problem?

[20:02] yeah, windows10 does something odd to linux [20:04] ben_g, boot repair can fix that i believe [20:04] isjustme, the router is doing NAT. What is the point to blocking ports? [20:05] because before i was able to block ports but now that i have a router i seem not to be able to block any ports [20:05] If you don't forward some port to the host on the LAN, it will not be accessible from the net. [20:06] ok [20:06] That is how the Network Address Translation works. The router now is a firewall layer. [20:08] how can you get linux to generate a random string of characters lets say 30 characters long? [20:09] Shaan, A password? [20:09] Hello. Ive got a dual boot setup with an amd APU and a radeon R7 250. In windows id like to use the dual graphics, but when I boot into ubuntu things get a little messy. I think maybe I can fix it by forcing the right VGA device to be initialized. How do I force ubuntu to use the R7 250 instead of the APU ? Using the radeon driver. [20:09] would it be ok to install gcc-4.6 into my system?

Thats why I'd like ubuntu to use the GPU instead [20:14] does anyone know if it's ok to have gcc-4.6 and gcc-4.8 installed on a system at the same time [20:23] any tips if i'm doing apt-get autoremove and after the "Do you want to continue? [Y/n]" message it just hangs and gives no other output? same thing whether i try to install a package (in which case it downloads the new packages first and then hangs) or removing a package [20:24] can someone assist me with accessing my SSH server behind router from external ip [20:24] furkan, run a apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade and look for any held or broken packages [20:24] i have the port 22 forwarded on the router, and allowed 22 through ufw [20:25] but i am only able to ssh over LAN and not over WAN [20:25] catalase: if you're testing from inside, bear in mind not all routers allow you to SSH into an open port on the WAN interface from the inside. [20:25] catalase: did you actually install the ssh-server? [20:26] catalase: use grc.com to test the port is open or get a friend / one of us to test [20:26] furkan, Feel free to pastebin all that output. [20:26] guntbert, i believe so. otherwise i would not be able to ssh. also sudo service ssh status results in ssh running [20:26] thanks bubbasaures about to try now [20:27] catalase: sorry, I misread [20:27] how do i disable the top bar on the lockscreen? === Xulai is now known as Awerlu [20:27] i don't like people turning off my pc [20:27] bubbasaures: interesting, now it's actually doing something [20:27] daftykins, even the chinese are attempting to connect to my server [20:28] AlexPortable: won't they just push the power button? seems worse [20:28] lastb shows multiple chinese ip [20:28] power button does nothing [20:28] but i cannot seem to connect via wan [20:28] catalase: ... so is it working externally or not? you shouldn't use the standard port on the internet really. [20:28] and nobody will force-off a pc with 10 seconds [20:28] because that damages the harddisk [20:29] AlexPortable: switch to a TTY before you leave so they don't know what to do. just a thought. [20:29] they know [20:29] daftykins, authentication not available by password alone. RSA key authentication required [20:29] daftykins, bruteforce should be a non-issue [20:29] The people around me know how ubuntu works [20:29] glue the plug to the outlet ;) [20:29] catalase: right so are you trying to hit your WAN IP from inside or what? [20:29] bubbasaures: the problem is that they can quickly shutdown the system from the top bar on the lockscreen [20:30] when i have my pc locked, they will just press reboot [20:30] catalase: and regardless of your above ideas, non-standard ports are far more sane [20:30] hi folks. First-time Ubuntu install, am having some wireless driver problems [20:30] AlexPortable - that's might've been true 15 years ago - but all harddrives nowadays reposition the drive arm when power is turned off. So damaging the hard disk is not an issue. [20:30] daftykins, yes. both client and server are behind the same router. client can connect to server via LAN, but not via WAN [20:30] the wireless chipset is RT5390, its an ASUS 551CA [20:30] AlexPortable thay can also pull out the electricity cable, if they would want to shutdown the pc [20:30] LoganGray: what about documents I had open? [20:31] MonkeyDust: internal battery [20:31] apparently ´hard-blocked´ [20:31] LoganGray: still not great yeah? if something is working on a file [20:31] right - those files, un-saved, might be lost [20:31] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8779135/ [20:31] agreed [20:31] bubbasaures: now it hung on update-initramfs http://pastebin.com/gbM8RYKs [20:31] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8779159/ [20:31] LoganGray: also what about ssdS? [20:31] catalase: yeah so did you read what i said? lots of routers don't allow that. you need to test from OUTSIDE :) [20:31] not sure what next step to take to try to install the wireless driver [20:32] anyone got any thoughts on the matter? [20:32] ssds are not hard drives - they are just high performance flash drives [20:32] 14.04 [20:32] there are no moving parts with ssds [20:33] nm bubbasaures it seems to have completed, just took a while [20:33] furkan, Seen that slow lately myself.

[20:45] 0.4 on nvcf [20:45] uh, pastebin "lshw -c VIDEO" [20:45] gallium. [20:45] ok. [20:45] martin - have you tried with chromium? [20:46] GF 116 [20:46] yes i have. it's similar to chrome, no? [20:46] OerHeks: it will damage an ssd [20:47] right [20:47] LoganGray: well i want to remove the shutdown option and stuff [20:47] I'm guessing its more a graphic thing than a browser thing - I'd just like to besure [20:47] process of elimiation: use it on another browser and see [20:47] hmm. interesting. [20:47] sure. [20:47] hi guys [20:47] if it still happens.. then it's more likely a gpu issue [20:48] driver issue? [20:48] potentially [20:48] on that topic, what is more compatible with ubuntu as far as graphic card is concerned? [20:48] Alex Portable- you could make it so the graphical UI doesn't start (you would have to start it manually) - until after you log in [20:49] LoganGray: it's not about logging in, it's about when i lock my pc (ctrl alt L) [20:49] ahh [20:49] ok.. then you could do this: [20:49] http://askubuntu.com/questions/533111/how-to-disable-power-off-restart-option-on-lock-screen [20:50] side effect tho... [20:51] well that's gdm [20:51] i prefer lightdm [20:52] hmm... maybe http://askubuntu.com/questions/453479/how-to-disable-shutdown-reboot-from-lightdm-in-14-04 [20:52] "Unfortunately this applies to all users, not only the lightdm session, so you have to add a second rule to white-list them if desired." [20:52] definitely a hack - but would work [20:53] well why isn't there an easy option? [20:53] heh- I could say that about 1000 different things... [20:54] f [20:54] it's not like ubuntu - or linux for that matter - is ubiquitous [20:54] and your situation is kinda unique [20:54] HELP when i upgraded to Utopic it disabled IPv6 and I don't know why or how to reenable it. [20:56] hmm [20:57] gnome-session-fallback has no option for shutdown on lockscreen [20:57] which is a bit better [20:57] HELP when i upgraded to Utopic it disabled IPv6 and I don't know why or how to reenable it. [20:57] !ignore lawn_gnome [20:57] why [20:57] derp what was the command [20:57] there's another somewhat extreme option you could try - but it'd cost money monthly (approx$10/month) - and thatwould be to have your ubuntu hosted in the cloud - and then you would just RDP (or some such) to it - whenever and wherever you like -and still have your graphical interface, and all your files and such. It just depends on what you like. [20:57] /ignore [20:57] LoganGray: can't. internet is mostly broken at work [20:58] lagbox: no i mean the "dont feel ignored" [20:58] ah [20:58] !patience [20:58] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [20:58] hey guys. how can I solve my sound problem on xubuntu 14.04 ? [20:58] thats the one [20:58] !patience lawn_gnome [20:58] I don't know how to operate this bot [20:58] AlexPortable: you dont need to ;) [20:58] I'm glad [20:59] what package is used to turn processing of adobe flash videos over to the gpu? [20:59] jjavaholic: There is no such package. [20:59] anybody have any helpful suggestions for me? [20:59] lawn_gnome: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [20:59] I thought vdpau was meant to do that [20:59] sound problem here... any body can you help me please ? [21:00] I have tried searching. [21:00] jjavaholic: VDPAU has nothing to do with flash. [21:00] LoganGray: willl this work? http://askubuntu.com/questions/137336/how-do-i-remove-the-shutdown-button-only-on-the-login-screen [21:00] or will it only mess up my system [21:01] lawn_gnome, just open networkmanager on top panel, and edit your connection, see why ipv6 is off? [21:01] what does Vdpau do? [21:01] no sounds when export from kdenlive [21:01] i tried this: $ /etc/init.d/network restart, and it gives this: bash: /etc/init.d/network: No such file or directory [21:01] interesting Alex [21:01] well [21:02] it wouldn't mess up your system - you could also change it back [21:02] !VDPAU [21:02] assuming you know how to use something simple like nano [21:03] looking at this, it sounds like you really need to look into rewriting/ editing "unity-greeter" [21:04] lawn_gnome: have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling IPv6? === juanma is now known as Guest76683 [21:05] LoganGray: Thats nor helpful ;) [21:05] LoganGray: what is the package? [21:05] lawn_gnome: There is no such package. [21:06] hmm... that's odd - I would think that there would be a stack or some such [21:06] bekks: what can i do? it seems that the upgrade somehow deleted that stuff. [21:06] what do you see when you type: ifconfig [21:06] LoganGray: Which doesnt make the IPv6 stack being a package. It is part of your kernel. [21:07] lawn_gnome: I havent used IPv6 yet, sorry. [21:07] if it's part of the kernel, how could it be disabled then? [21:07] LoganGray: huh. that's weird. ifconfig has a line that says inet6 addr: fe80::76e5:43ff:fee7:71a2/64 Scope:Link [21:08] LoganGray: by unloading the module, e.g. [21:08] lawn_gnome: So IPv6 is active on your system. [21:08] sounds like it's implemented then [21:08] but I can't do anything with it. [21:09] lawn_gnome: So what are you actually trying to do? [21:09] lawn_gnome: You need to read about systemd and how it handles starting and stopping services. [21:09] !systemd [21:09] systemd has been chosen as the future init system for Ubuntu, please see http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1316 for the announcement. [21:09] grr. Some docs would be a bit more useful. [21:09] agreed/nod bekks: that's really the root and best question: "what are you actually trying to do?" [21:10] I want to host a minecraft server on ipv6 so i don't have to port forward. [21:10] lawn_gnome: So configure an IPv6 address. [21:11] Just tested: I can connect to the server via ::0 [21:11] So you server is already listening on IPv6. [21:11] yes. [21:12] hangon. i will go on #minecraft and see if anyone can connect to it externally. [21:12] lawn_gnome: No one can. You dont have an IPv6 address configured. [21:12] did I do something wrong? [21:12] You only have link-local configured until now. [21:12] When I try gnome flashback metacity I have no bars [21:12] only my background [21:13] good old metacity [21:13] bekks: how can i configure it? [21:13] ? [21:13] lawn_gnome: Do you have an address with Scope:Global or just Scope:Link [21:13] Oh. Wrong Metacity. :P [21:13] hello. i'm having trouble with hibernate on 14.10 it's mysteriously broken (was working fine before i re-partitioned / new swap) [21:13] Scope:Link [21:13] lawn_gnome: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 [21:13] Metacity: that's like an username with firefox or ubuntu [21:14] It was the only thing I could think of to use outside of Wikimedia projects. :P [21:14] how can i fix it? [21:14] dreamcat4: The only way partitioning would interfere with hibernating is if your swap is smaller than your RAM. [21:15] jhutchins_wk: yes, i am aware of that === esde is now known as Guest18963 [21:15] dreamcat4: Logs? [21:16] jhutchins_wk: nothing in logs but it does automatically open up a problem report after the reboot [21:17] jhutchins_wk: many fields in the problem report Details. one of them is "Problem Type: KernelOops" === Guest18963 is now known as esde [21:17] lawn_gnome: minecraft supports IPv6? since when? [21:17] bekks: how do I reload the network config? [21:17] popey: since just about ever [21:18] lawn_gnome: What exactly do you want to do? [21:18] dreamcat4: Might want to scan through dmesg | less or boot.log [21:18] bekks: I want it to reload the /etc/sysctl.conf [21:18] lawn_gnome: Thats not the network config at all. [21:19] lawn_gnome: systemctl restart NetworkManager.service [21:19] hiiiiiiiiiiii [21:19] bekks: which is what i changed to enable ipv6 as per the instructions you gave [21:19] lawn_gnome: I never told you to even touch /etc/sysctl.conf - and IPv6 is already up and running on your sysrtem. [21:20] jhutchins_wk: boot.log looks fine, dmesg looks (mostly) ok, i guess? not really sure what i'm looking for in dmseg [21:20] lawn_gnome: Configure an IPv6 address, dont mess with /etc/sysctl.conf [21:20] lawn-gnome - does your system have a GUI? if so, I'd just do a full sudo reboot - you might have a whole bunch of odd failures otherwise ... just saying [21:21] dreamcat4: one hopes for something like ERROR!!! THIS HERE THING IS BROKEN, but one is often disappointed. [21:21] anyone can help me out? [21:21] and how can i disable bluetooth being turned on when i login? [21:21] I've tried systemctl restart NetworkManager.service and such before - and my GUI would go bonkers.. frozen and such [21:22] bekks: you never gave me cler instructions on what to look at on the site you pointed me to. [21:23] AlexPortable, startup applications as in your desktop version [21:23] AlexPortable: Disable it in settings. [21:23] lawn_gnome: I told you very clearly that you dont have to enable the already running IPv6 - I clearly told you to configure an IPv6 address. [21:23] lawn_gnome: Randomly editing system files is not helpful. [21:23] jhutchins_wk: where? [21:24] jhutchins_wk: pastebin.ubuntu.com/8779756 [21:24] bekks: how? [21:24] AlexPortable: Well, on my xfce4 Menu, Settings, Bluetooth Manager. It still comes back on occasionally, Ijust turn it on and back off. [21:25] jhutchins_wk: yes, i can turn it off there, but every time i relog it comes back enabled [21:25] bekks - he's just trying... to fix things himself.. I'm sure he make a backup of the sysctl.conf file before he edited it.. heh heh [21:25] LoganGray: He is going to break his box. He doesnt even need to touch that file. [21:25] agreed. [21:26] bekks: only a little [21:26] but he'll learn [21:26] lawn_gnome: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-ipv6-networking-configuration/ like this, you can set an IPv6 address. [21:26] AlexPortable: Perhaps you will have better luck with google than I did. [21:26] it's not the end of the world - and if he does - well, he'll be sure to do it differently next time. [21:26] jhutchins_wk: doubt it [21:26] my luck hasn't bee nso good [21:27] hi, my computer doesn't allow booting from the internal SD card reader. but it does allow booting from USB. is there a tool that i can install on a usb disk that will allow me to boot from the internal SD card reader? [21:28] dont think so [21:28] qwee456: No. [21:28] I know nothing about metacity....but I would think the bluetooth piece is like a service or something, right... so maybe we start looking into that [21:28] qwee456: No. [21:28] .join linux [21:28] http://itsfoss.com/turn-off-bluetooth-by-default-in-ubuntu-14-04/ [21:28] Sorry, forgot the / [21:28] qwee456: You can check for bios updates that might enable it, but that's pretty much a hardware level thing. [21:28] ok thanks guys [21:28] qwee456: You could probably use a USB SD card reader. [21:28] OerHeks: will that still allow me to turn it on? [21:29] Yes, read it [21:29] i did [21:29] bekks: part of my concern is that my ipv6 was fully working before I upgraded [21:29] but not if you can enable it or not [21:29] i've had some issues with wifi not being able to turn on again [21:29] lawn_gnome: So check the configuration then. [21:29] bekks: what? [21:30] AlexPortable, why do you bring wifi up now? [21:30] Interesting, seems I already did rfkill block bluetooth and it still comes on when it restores. [21:30] lawn_gnome: If it was enabled before, the configuration still exists - check it. [21:30] because when i disabled wifi, and i wanted to enable it i got an error with rfkill being in use [21:30] so maybe bluetooth will be disabled forever with this? [21:30] bekks: where? [21:30] hey guys, i am trying to install vpn on my server. i was recommended to use openvpn, but i don't understand why use openvpn because it requires you to use a client. I remember there was something simpler that allows you to establish a VPN connection without the need of a client. Was it PPTP? I can't remember. Any advise? [21:31] lawn_gnome: In your network configuration. [21:31] hmm... bluetooth: 1) http://itsfoss.com/turn-off-bluetooth-by-default-in-ubuntu-14-04/ 2) try to run rfkill block bluetooth manually and see what happens [21:31] bekks: /etc/network/interfaces? [21:31] OerHeks: thanks [21:31] lawn_gnome: Or network-manager [21:31] anyone knows a screenshot tool that lets me generate random names? [21:32] Alex: huh?? like http://random-name-generator.info/ ?? [21:33] AlexPortable: Just use a random name for saving the screenshot. [21:33] bekks: where is that? [21:34] lawn_gnome: It is described in here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager and here: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/network-configuration.html [21:35] bekks: well i want to let it upload [21:35] so i need automatic [21:37] AlexPortable: there is no screenshot tools that automagically uploads things - at least to my knowledge. [21:37] typically - a screenshot tool like that would generate a name with a basename, and then add on the date and time, [21:37] bekks: there are [21:37] LoganGray: yes but i dont want that. i want random names [21:37] AlexPortable: Which ones? [21:38] you might have to write something like that [21:38] well can I involve a bash script? [21:38] screencloud uploads the screenshot [21:39] bekks: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections is blank [21:39] AlexPortable: And which tool takes the screenshot for screencloud? [21:39] no idea [21:39] lawn_gnome: So you have no system connections configured. You still may have user connections configured, or you may be using /etc/network/interfaces [21:40] bekks: I think i am [21:42] if I type: apt-get install libboost- and double click tab, I get a prompt if I want to see all 132 packages. I press yes. At the end there is 'more'. How do I scroll down? [21:42] minas114 - I thnk you would just press space bar [21:43] LoganGray, thank you [21:43] OMG!!! I got a "thank you" - woot!!! [21:44] LoganGray: WOO!

[22:07] kubunto: Did you install exfat-fuse and exfat-utils? [22:07] !autostart | wadie [22:07] wadie: If you want to edit your Autostart programs, open the Unity dash and search for Startup Programs. If you're on XFCE, use menu -> Settings -> Settings Manager -> Session and Startup, if you're on KDE, use Kickoff -> Computer -> System Settings -> Autostart.

[22:08] kubunto, do you have exfat-fuse exfat-utils installed? [22:09] kubunto: iirc correcty you need to install exfat-fuse and exfat-utils. [22:10] AlexPortable: if you mean flashback then you should be able to select metacity or compiz from the logon [22:11] Airbander: The default installed applications and the desktop are different. The kernel is the same same . [22:11] Tanks Bashing-om [22:12] Airbander: :) [22:12] well now it works [22:12] it didn't work at first [22:12] i have xubuntu and a message pop to me he said to upgrade [22:12] will gnome tweaks work on gnome fallback / flashback? [22:12] this is the message i'm talking about : http://postimg.org/image/xeu3i0yqx/ [22:13] plz tell me if i Upgrade that will change some thing in the system or just theme and thanks [22:13] how do i mount an exfat sd card [22:13] kubunto: You have to install the packages I told you. [22:13] if i added a script to Xubuntu application and startup and told it to run during boot up, where would that be located so i disable it from being run? i'm in a tty and don't have a gui [22:14] bekks: i dont have either as far as i can tell [22:15] sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils [22:15] kubunto: Why not? [22:15] installing [22:15] then logout, login ( to be sure) and mount again [22:16] or just try mounting it with Disks [22:16] squinty: Which needs the two packages being installed as well. [22:17] what do you need to install to be able to read reiserfs partition ?

(i might not be able to install packages thru Internet) [22:20] kamerad: Just install te packages you want, using sudo apt-get [22:20] kamerad, you can choose from an installation and make a download script [22:20] i installed the nvidia driver 343.22 and it boots to a black screen. Xorg.0.log doesn't show anything alarming. how do i troubleshoot this [22:20] !offline [22:20] If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script.

[23:08] Any way how I can set applications to open on a workspace # by default? [23:09] ubuntourist, Wireless Access Point (WAP) ? [23:09] basheba: chromium broke NPAPI support so it's probably not possible [23:09] incompatible plugins etc [23:09] use firefox. [23:09] Or Chrome [23:09] ubuntourist, that is a function to give access to other wifi users, when you are on lan cable [23:10] chrome does not like npapi too [23:10] ppapi is the new religion :-D === vance is now known as Guest11187 [23:11] OerHeks: Probably. Thanks. I've seen the standard up-down arrow for wired, and the blue bars for wifi, but had never seen this (which is gone now, but I think looked like a broadcasting antenna). [23:14] is there som standard software to store checksums of files to xattrs? [23:17] still have a black screen after installing 343.22. is it possible that my LCD monitor is just set too dark? there's no errors in Xorg.0.log OR .xsession-errors [23:19] ati ? [23:21] blaaa: ?? -> apt-cache search xattrs >> metastore - Store and restore metadata from a filesystem; ls -al /var/lib/dpkg/info/metastore.md5sums . (??). [23:22] I have a quck question regarding the proper config of the /etc/hosts file, I have looked through a couple of difference resources but keep on finding conflicting info. If I have a server with one ip that has multiple subdomains that point to it would this be the proper way to setup the /etc/hosts file : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8780932/ [23:22] Um when I upgraded my computer to Ubuntu 14.10 Minecraft's framerate dropped to about 6 fps. I didn't change anything. I had been using Optifine and a couple other mods to make it better, but it does the exact same thing with vanilla. [23:22] Everything seems to be the same, but I was getting a good 60 fps with a 128x128 texture and 32 block render distance. The odd thing is that I get the same framerate no matter what I do. I can turn everything off and it makes no difference. [23:23] Bashing-om: looks like it, thanks === MeltedLux is now known as MeltedDed [23:24] Bashing-om: hmm, not exactly it [23:24] Mobutils: probably better to use the 127.x.x.x IPs - like 127.0.1.1, 127.0.1.2, etc [23:24] lawn_gnome: sounds like your upgrade broke your optimus config [23:24] what? === Malsasa| is now known as Malsasa [23:25] yeats: ?? I could see that if these were just for testing, but these are qualified domains with dns records. [23:25] yeats: could you explain what you mean, I may not be understanding correctly [23:25] daftykins:what is the optimus config? [23:25] Any way how I can customize 'The main GNOME menu' in the menu bar? === MeltedDed is now known as MeltedLux [23:27] blaaa: Only shot I have at it, with what I have to work with. :) [23:27] lawn_gnome: i thought you mentioned using optimus was all, i can't scroll up to check now though as i'm messing with a computer with no page up key :/ [23:28] I am on an Acer laptop with an i5 [23:28] What would be the best Whole system backup util that will backup to a external usb drive ? [23:28] lawn_gnome: so intel graphics only? [23:29] um yes? [23:29] no need to be like that. [23:29] nevermind then === MeltedLux is now known as MeltedDed [23:31] I don't know what that means. sorry. [23:31] how can i make alttab to work? [23:31] lawn_gnome: lspci -v | grep VGA [23:32] EriC^^: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) [23:32] Also why do i have no bars in compiz gnome fallback? [23:32] lawn_gnome: just a misunderstanding between Optimus and Optifine the latter for minecraft the former for dual video card setup [23:32] lawn_gnome: is that all? [23:33] EriC^^: yes. [23:33] squinty: thanks, yeah i just misread earlier and couldn't go to my scrollback for confirmation [23:33] hehe [23:33] daftykins: np :) [23:34] stupid macbook has no page up =/ [23:34] macbook [23:35] yeah, got trusty installed on an old late 2007 macbook ;) [23:35] macbook hah [23:35] oh ok :D [23:35] relevant: ^ [23:35] lawn_gnome: well, hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you shouldn't have bothered upgrading! ;) [23:36] why? [23:36] because you broke minecraft. [23:36] why isn't gnome-panel being loaded when I start metacity gnome fallback? [23:36] mouse is visible, in compiz ctrl alt t works [23:37] um try alt+f2 r [23:37] r? [23:37] r restarts the DE [23:37] when i login to unity and then log back out and login to metacity/compiz again [23:38] then it works [23:38] f2 does nothign [23:38] ok then [23:38] are you using GDM?
