[00:00] <naryfa> hello, can anybody tell me how to generate nsswitch.conf ? I'm trying to join a windows domain, and somehow this file doesn't exist, and the lack of it seems to cause the problem.
[00:04] <mamece2> please help. in online account i just have this message "there are currently no  account providers available which integrate with this application"
[00:04] <mamece2> i installed evolution, still nothing
[00:06] <k1l> mamece2: see in package manager for online account providers to install.
[00:06] <k1l> like the google one
[00:07] <mamece2> k1l:  wheres is package manager?
[00:07] <k1l> mamece2: softwarecenter as GUI or apt-get in cli
[00:09] <mamece2> k1l: i installed "Online accounts" turns out is for the ubuntu touch system AND still nothing at "online accounts"
[00:09] <guig33k> hi i have made a fresh install of ubuntu and i have tcp port 7702 27036 57343 open someone can say to me what is it ?
[00:10] <k1l> mamece2: i said you need to install the provider packages, too. like the google one
[00:11] <mamece2> k1l:  do i need to install that online account even when it says its for ubuntu touch?
[00:11] <Engraves> How do I remove the dashplugins from the dash
[00:12] <edgy> Hi, I want to try virt-manager to boot any of the ready made images. my question is what's the recommendation for /var because it would soon exceed the available space?  shall I add another virtio disk and then copy the whole /var to it and mount it?
[00:13] <mamece2> k1l:  all you find in google about online account is just GO TO ONLINE ACCOUNT and add it. well, when i go to online account the folloiwing message is there:   "there are currently no account providers available which integrate with this application"
[00:16] <k1l> mamece2: i dont know and i dont have the time to test all possible solutions there. but the error clearly points in the direction that it needs an account provider. and you need to install that
[00:16] <mamece2> k1l: ok, i get it. thanks
[00:16] <lubuntu> server irc.explosionirc.net
[00:16] <k1l> mamece2: http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/account-plugin-google
[00:17] <k1l> mamece2: i told you like 2 or 3 times you need the google account provider. i dont know why you just dont install that package?

[00:18] <k1l> http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/evolution-data-server-online-accounts that could be needed too.
[00:19] <davinci__> anyone?
[00:21] <mamece2> k1l: its already installed. ofc im still in the same status. the same message about  "there are currently no account providers available which integrate with this application"

[00:31] <abaddon> What is the installer used for ubuntu server edition?
[00:31] <dc_> 14.4
[00:31] <dc_> studio
[00:33] <OerHeks> abaddon, the server ISO's are on http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/
[00:34] <violinappren> guig33k: you can enable the firewall and selectively allow/disallow ports
[00:34] <violinappren> !ufw
[00:34] <OerHeks> and if you want that server-choise menu, install tasksel, and run sudo tasksel in terminal
[00:34] <OerHeks> !info tasksel
[00:37] <ben__> ?
[00:37] <abaddon> OerHeks, I'm not looking for the iso but rather the name of the installer used with the iso?
[00:39] <abaddon> OerHeks, OOOHHH, Wait, tasksel is the installer????
[00:40] <OerHeks> abaddon, yes tasksel
[00:40] <abaddon> AWWW THANK YOOOUUUUU OerHeks !!
[00:40] <OerHeks> have fun
[00:41] <abaddon> Trust me,lol, I will XD
[00:43] <violinappren> OerHeks, abaddon, : I think you're looking for 'debian-installer'
[00:43] <Charcoalcat> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and Unity/compiz is broken. Basically, I can click on the launcher to open programs, but then I can't use it to switch between them, and once a program is on the screen, I can't minimize it; I have to use the tty to kill it in order to switch to other programs. I tried resetting Unity and replacing Compiz but I keep getting an error about unity-panel-service not being found. Also, I can't use the dash to run programs, and
[00:43] <Charcoalcat> alt+f2 isn't working either.
[00:44] <l0rdn1x> Charcoalcat, upgrade to 14.04
[00:45] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: check it's on in a guest session
[00:45] <abaddon> violinappren, ???
[00:46] <Charcoalcat> It happened yesterday when the Internet went out. I was trying to open Snowflake Pro through Wine (which normally works) and it had broken graphics so that it looked like the part of the screen that was under it. Then I stopped being able to use the launcher or the rest of the GUI at all. I rebooted several times but it didn't help. Then I uninstalled logmein-hamachi and it started working again, but only for a couple of minutes. Then I went into
[00:46] <Charcoalcat> compiz and reset my settings to default and that made the entire GUI disappear until I reinstalled my graphics drive (I got the nvidia drivers). I also reenabled Unity through ccsm. And now it's working like I described before.
[00:46] <violinappren> abaddon: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/debian-installer
[00:47] <Charcoalcat> l0rdnix: Will that cause other problems? I don't know much about 14.04. Also, I'm not sure if it will let me update to 14.04 because it doesn't let me do normal updates (it says I have broken packages).
[00:47] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: I'm not in guest mode; I logged in with my password on the login screen.
[00:47] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: i'm telling you to try the guest session to see if it has the same issues :)
[00:47] <Charcoalcat> I also have Gnome Classic installed, but it works the same as Unity. So does Unity 2D.
[00:47] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: Oh! Okay, I'll try.
[00:48] <`packy> food run
[00:48] <abaddon> violinappren, Thanks, will check this out too =]
[00:49] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: I started a guest session and it seems to be working normally. I can switch programs, use the dash, minimize things, and drag windows around.
[00:49] <Charcoalcat> (I can't drag windows when logged in, and there are no window decorations.)
[00:49] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: ok so something is up with your user
[00:50] <daftykins> that narrows down the problem a bit
[00:50] <ubuntuaddicted> does anyone know if there's a way to make xscreensaver acknowledge gamepads so it won't activate when im using a gamepad (when Im gaming, it's really annoying)
[00:51] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: your package state sounds bad though, i assume because of that you might not even be up to date right now?
[00:51] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: Yeah, it says I need something like 600 updates when the thing comes up. But I haven't been able to get rid of the broken packages yet.
[00:52] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: ah, that's going to make my unity reset idea problematic
[00:52] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: can you run "sudo apt-get -f install" in a terminal and pastebin the output?
[00:53] <Charcoalcat> Okay, I'll try that.
[00:53] <davinci__> Hey guys synapse keeps opening my terminal to root instead of home any ideas?
[00:53] <daftykins> !info synapse
[00:53] <daftykins> !info synapse trusty
[00:53] <steven--> This channel still supports 10.04 (server)?
[00:54] <daftykins> steven--: yes, for 5 more months
[00:54] <daftykins> er, 6 even
[00:54] <steven--> Okay, thanks daftykins
[00:54] <daftykins> in fact i'm typing from lucid!
[00:54] <daftykins> D:
[00:54] <steven--> :D
[00:54] <davinci__> Synapse is a app launcher available through a ppa/
[00:55] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: I'll paste that in a second, but, after being in guest mode, now as a user it's working normally!!
[00:55] <daftykins> davinci__: then it's third party and not really supported. you might get lucky if someone uses it but i seriously doubt it. maybe contact the developer
[00:56] <daftykins> Charcoalcat: package state is, or Unity is working normally? :)
[00:56] <Charcoalcat> daftykins: Unity is working normally.
[00:56] <unstable> What is the proper syntax for say /etc/modprobe.d/mcelog.conf, I want 'msr' to be modprobed on reboot. Do I add 'modprobe msr' to that file, or just 'msr' or what?
[00:56] <Ottercat> https://bpaste.net/show/952af9ba5a3e
[00:56] <Charcoalflip> Whoops, wrong nickname.
[00:56] <daftykins> unstable: i was under the impression '/etc/modules' is where you put just the module name
[00:57] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: There's the paste.
[00:57] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: ok could you also do "sudo apt-get update" and share that, then afterward if all looks ok, "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[00:58] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: Alright, I'll try.
[00:58] <steven--> Does 32 bit Ubuntu have PAE support? if not, can I enable it?
[00:58] <violinappren> unstable: it should be done automatically, but anyway add the command to /etc/rc.local
[00:59] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: https://bpaste.net/show/a88ddccc9915
[00:59] <daftykins> steven--: sure, just install a PAE kernel
[00:59] <zykotick9> daftykins: isn't the PAE kernel the default?
[00:59] <steven--> daftykins: okay
[00:59] <davinci__> actually synapse is in trusty repo.
[00:59] <steven--> zykotick9: it is in debian
[00:59] <violinappren> unstable: for more info on what modprobe.d is: man modprobe.d
[01:00] <daftykins> zykotick9: yeah i would've assumed so, but then maybe lucid is too ancient for such an approach
[01:00] <zykotick9> steven--: i'd be 75+% sure it is in ubuntu as well...
[01:00] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: wow, lots of PPAs. you could do with removing that ferramroberto one from your sources. do you need a pointer on how?
[01:00] <k1l> steven--: zykotick9 it is default in ubuntu,too.
[01:00] <violinappren> unstable: or as daftykins suggested, use /etc/modules
[01:01] <zykotick9> k1l: ya, i'd assume as much.  thanks for confirmation.
[01:01] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: Yeah, I don't really know how to remove PPAs.
[01:01] <k1l> Charcoalflip: use ppa-purge for that
[01:01] <violinappren> !ppa-purge
[01:02] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: as these guys suggest ^ :)
[01:02] <Charcoalflip> Okay! I'll try to do that.
[01:02] <lotuspsychje> is there a GUI package that can enable/disable /etc/init system services, now im doing it manually with service.override trick
[01:02] <steven--> k1l: I edit /etc/apt/sources.list as superuser
[01:03] <thiebaude> or just go into software and updates and delete the ppa
[01:03] <k1l> steven--: and that is not the ubuntu way. PPAs go to /sources.list.d . and ppa-purge even removes the ppa packages.
[01:03] <thiebaude> form othe software tab
[01:04] <thiebaude> other
[01:04] <steven--> Really? o-o Must've changed
[01:04] <k1l> thiebaude: that will not remove the package with the ppa version and reinstall the original ubuntu one
[01:04] <k1l> steven--: quite long ago
[01:04] <thiebaude> k1l, i never knew that, thanks
[01:04] <k1l> steven--: ubuntu is different there from debian.
[01:05] <steven--> http://www.ubuntu.com/ changed their moto from something like the worlds most popular free os or whatever
[01:05] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: https://bpaste.net/show/8e2345cf0a63 Does this mean it didn't work?
[01:05] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: correct - you don't use the full URL afaiui
[01:06] <daftykins> follow the above link for more tips
[01:07] <steven--> Charcoalflip:
[01:07] <steven--> what version of ubuntu are you on?
[01:07] <Charcoalflip> steven--: 12.04.
[01:07] <steven--> https://launchpad.net/~ferramroberto/+archive/ubuntu/java only supports 10.04 to 11.10
[01:08] <k1l> Charcoalflip: that is the wrong url in there. please read the howto use ppa-purge more carefully
[01:09] <Charcoalflip> k1l: Is it supposed to be "sudo ppa-purge ppa:ferramroberto/java"?
[01:09] <k1l> yes. not the http url but just ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory>
[01:09] <OerHeks> ppa:ferramroberto/java
[01:11] <Charcoalflip> Okay, I think it's gone. http://paste.kde.org/pquejyu9h/v4yjod I don't see any errors using apt-get update now.
[01:11] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: cool, "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" now
[01:11] <steven--> k1l: Charcoal's sources has http://deb.playonlinux.com in it, but it is listed as oneiric, even though he is on 12.04
[01:11] <k1l> Charcoalflip: that is still a lot of PPAs but yes
[01:12] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: Okay, it's running.
[01:12] <k1l> steven--: yes, good point
[01:13] <n-iCe> Hello! any site to download good ubuntu themes?
[01:13] <Charcoalflip> k1l: How many ppas do people usually have?
[01:13] <lotuspsychje> n-iCe: deviantart.com has some nice things
[01:13] <k1l> Charcoalflip: when that is done. can you show a " cat /etc/apt/sources.list" in a pastebin?
[01:13] <thiebaude> n-iCe, noobslab.com
[01:14] <k1l> Charcoalflip: the less, the better
[01:14] <n-iCe> thiebaude: lotuspsychje for unity?
[01:14] <thiebaude> n-iCe, never heard of that
[01:14] <thiebaude> n-iCe, or omgubuntu
[01:14] <n-iCe> Never heard of unity?
[01:14] <Charcoalflip> k1l: Okay, I'll do that afterward.
[01:14] <Charcoalflip> (the dist-upgrade is at 5%)
[01:15] <thiebaude> n-iCe, i am waiting for the mac osx themes for ubuntu 14.10 :)
[01:15] <violinappren> !pastebinit | k1l, Charcoalflip
[01:15] <steven--> Gah
[01:16] <lyntoo> theme is not for ubuntu but you'r desktop environment, like gnome, xfce, unity, whatever
[01:16] <k1l> Charcoalflip: everything from the original ubuntu repos gets automated testing to not break stuff. if you put 3rd party packages into that you loose that stableness.
[01:16] <l0rdn1x> or you could use curl, cat /etc/apt/sources.list | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
[01:17] <steven--> I liked it back when Ubuntu had GNOME2 as the default DE
[01:17] <lotuspsychje> n-iCe: try ubuntu theme as search on deviantart
[01:17] <k1l> steven--: tell that to gnome.
[01:17] <Charcoalflip> violinappren: Cool! I'll try that out.
[01:17] <n-iCe> ok thank you guys
[01:17] <Charcoalflip> k1l: That makes sense.
[01:17] <n-iCe> steven--: there is mate
[01:18] <steven--> Linux Mint is even more bloated than Ubuntu
[01:18] <thiebaude> lol
[01:18] <n-iCe> bloated? what do you mean
[01:19] <steven--> Requries more hard disc space
[01:19] <thiebaude> hmm
[01:19] <n-iCe> oh
[01:19] <n-iCe> ubuntu is big these days 1GB+
[01:19] <lotuspsychje> keep it ontopic guys
[01:19] <steven--> ^ what lotuspsychje said
[01:19] <steven--> Take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:20] <violinappren> steven--: ubuntu is what you make of it, you can start with a minimal image like the server image and add packages as you see fit
[01:21] <steven--> How do I get the grub menu to appear when booting ubuntu without having to restart the machine while it's booting
[01:22] <lotuspsychje> steven--: you wanna enter grub?
[01:22] <k1l> hold left shift
[01:22] <steven--> k1l: oki
[01:23] <steven--> Sometimes apt-get -f install doesn't work while using the desktop, so I enter recovery
[01:23] <k1l> what? how often do you need that?
[01:24] <jason1> Hi kids.
[01:24] <steven--> When I cancel installation of some packages in the middle
[01:24] <k1l> well, yes. if you want it that way,...
[01:25] <steven--> does #ubuntu support /flood?
[01:26] <lotuspsychje> !flood | steven--
[01:28] <DocPlatypus> ok... how to troubleshoot Skype audio issues on 12.04 LTS?
[01:28] <DocPlatypus> it's not letting me pick devices within Skype at all, just "Virtual Device"
[01:28] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: your sound drivers installed correctly?
[01:29] <DocPlatypus> yes. USB headset will record and playback with Audacity just fine.
[01:29] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: did you also test skype with headset?
[01:29] <DocPlatypus> Skype echo server is not working at all.
[01:30] <DocPlatypus> but I know the headset works
[01:30] <steven--> DocPlatypus: Have you tried plugging it into a different usb port?
[01:30] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: maybe start skype from terminal, might show errors
[01:30] <DocPlatypus> it is started from a terminal and I see no errors
[01:32] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: maybe this can help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2232938
[01:32] <DocPlatypus> what ports does Skype need, or does it figure them out automatically?
[01:35] <jason1> Is Doug online?
[01:36] <jason1> A live chat webpage is not working.
[01:37] <DocPlatypus> I can't install paprefs without uninstalling something I want to keep
[01:37] <lotuspsychje> !info pavucontrol | DocPlatypus maybe try this one
[01:38] <DocPlatypus> okay I have this
[01:39] <daftykins> DocPlatypus: auto, can default to port 80 too.
[01:39] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: pulseaudio or skype reinstall might help also
[01:40] <DocPlatypus> it's a fresh Skype install. I'm having to run the 4.3 version from the tar.bz2 because trying to upgrade the package to 4.3, it wants me to uninstall like 200 different packages, many of which I use
[01:40] <DocPlatypus> and 4.0 does not work at all
[01:40] <DocPlatypus> (thanks Microsoft!)
[01:41] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: did you install 12.04 multiarch from web?
[01:42] <DocPlatypus> lotuspsychje: yes, I tried to, that's when it told me "to make this work you have to uninstall half your system"
[01:43] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: maybe you have missing dependecys then
[01:43] <DocPlatypus> I have everything installed that 4.0 depends on
[01:44] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: what kind of stuff does it wanna uninstall ?
[01:44] <Blaster> Is there something special you have to do permissions-wise if you want to serve documents from a user's home folder with nginx?
[01:46] <lotuspsychje> Blaster: maybe the #nginx guys might also know
[01:47] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: 12.04 multiarch should work fine, not sure why it wants to uninstall other stuff on your system
[01:52] <DocPlatypus> lotuspsychje: I have a lot of stuff upgraded to newer versions from PPAs
[01:53] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: that might be the reason it wants to uninstall stuff
[01:53] <lotuspsychje> !ppa | DocPlatypus
[01:53] <DocPlatypus> I'd upgrade to 14.04 LTS but it took me ages to get my GUI setup to something I could live with, still nothing like what I had on 10.094
[01:53] <DocPlatypus> 10.04
[01:54] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: why not install 14.04 clean, startover fresh with skype
[01:54] <DocPlatypus> I don't have the room to back up everything, and I really, really do not want to do a fresh install and spend a week or two setting everything back up the way I want it
[01:54] <DocPlatypus> if I wanted that I'd just bend over for Microsoft and charge a Windows 8 license on my credit card
[01:54] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: there is aptoncd to backup your fav packages
[01:56] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: whats an hour reinstall fresh, you get supported till 2019
[01:56] <DocPlatypus> an hour? it will take me so much longer than an hour to get back up to where I was
[01:57] <DocPlatypus> my DE is GNOME Classic... and I'm not even sure that will work in 14.04 LTS
[01:57] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: there is a solution for every need
[01:58] <lotuspsychje> DocPlatypus: the way you working right now, is also mixxed up
[01:58] <Blaster> How should I give nginx permissions to access user's home folders?  Should I just put  nginx in the same group as the users and then use 660 on the home folders?
[01:58] <Blaster> 760 actually because the home user would need to execute files in his home directory?
[01:59] <daftykins> web server executing home user files? why on earth? :)
[01:59] <Blaster> No the web user would be in the group, so it would only have read/write.
[01:59] <lotuspsychje> Blaster: http://askubuntu.com/questions/9402/what-file-permissions-should-i-set-on-web-root
[01:59] <somsip> Blaster: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/126745/set-up-nginx-to-serve-files-from-subdirectories
[02:00] <Blaster> Although is running a PHP file in a web browser considered executing it from a permissions perspective?
[02:00] <somsip> Blaster: no
[02:00] <Blaster> I'm going to need to set those permissions on the home directory.
[02:01] <Blaster> The reason is that in my home directory I have a projects folder with web projects inside.
[02:01] <Blaster> And I want to be able to use nginx to run those scripts from a web browser.
[02:01] <somsip> Blaster: having no experience with nginx, every guide I've just found suggests taking a different, safer approach
[02:02] <lotuspsychje> Blaster: here's the official: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Nginx
[02:02] <Blaster> somsip, your link recommends setting world rx on the user's home directory.
[02:03] <linelevel> Hi, I'm booted into a LiveUSB, and I did the thing in a terminal where I mount my hdd partition (and mount /proc, /sys, and /dev/pts), then chroot into it... the only problem is that my internet connection is not being passed through when I chroot in, so I can't use apt-get. How can I fix this?
[02:03] <Blaster> Because you can't just set it on a sub directory, or it will still be permission denied if the parent directory doesn't have those permissions, right?
[02:03] <daftykins> linelevel: "ping 8.8.8.8" is that ok? might just be DNS it's lacking
[02:04] <linelevel> daftykins: Good call, it's just DNS.
[02:04] <Blaster> Yeah /srv is probably a better directory than ~/proj anyway.
[02:04] <daftykins> linelevel: inside your chroot, "sudo -i", then: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
[02:05] <somsip> daftykins: I never remember the sudo tee thingy either ;-)
[02:05] <Blaster> But if I update ubuntu to the next version, I probably won't remember to back that folder up in addition to my home folder.
[02:05] <daftykins> somsip: XD
[02:05] <linelevel> daftykins: Awesome, thanks. Then I'll have to (or at least, probably want to) remove that line once I'm back in my primary OS, right?
[02:05] <daftykins> linelevel: nah it'll get overridden
[02:06] <linelevel> daftykins: Oh, gotcha. Testing now.
[02:06] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | daftykins
[02:06] <daftykins> lotuspsychje: ;)
[02:07] <wlxmhls1> hi
[02:07] <lotuspsychje> wlxmhls1: welcome
[02:07] <linelevel> daftykins: It works, awesome! You totally deserve that cookie.
[02:07] <lotuspsychje> lol
[02:07] <Bashing-om> linelevel: To get DNS, did you also -> sudo mount --bind /run /mnt/run <- in the CHange root set up ?
[02:08] <reisio> wlxmhls1: ohai
[02:08] <linelevel> Bashing-om: No, I just did /proc, /sys, and /dev/pts ...but I followed the same notes I used when I did this a couple years ago (on 12.04) and it worked then.
[02:09] <linelevel> Bashing-om: If you have an idea of what caused the nameservers not to pass to the chroot environment, I am curious.
[02:11] <lotuspsychje> linelevel: there is a dns line on the official: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot
[02:12] <Bashing-om> linelevel: In one word "dnsmasq", old way in new things; run/resolvconf/resolv.conf Is a symbolic link, the command cannot write through the symbolic link.As we now have /run bound. So bind /run works.
[02:12] <lkthomas> guys, all the time the dbconfig-common actually looking for localhost, how could I force all dbconfig to remote mysql server ?
[02:13] <linelevel> Bashing-om: I didn't use `mount --bind at all, I used `mount -t`, e.g.: `mount -t mount -t sysfs sys /sys` -- Is that still okay?
[02:14] <lotuspsychje> is there any package that can enable/disable /etc/init system services GUI, now im disabling them the manual way service.override?
[02:16] <Bashing-om> linelevel: Yeah, should be OK, as it works, huh ? .. there are a number of ways to impement the CHroot .. I too prefer slow individual mounts and (UN)mount to gracefully back out .
[02:17] <linelevel> Bashing-om: Makes sense. So `mount -t run run /run` should do it, yes?
[02:17] <auscompgeek> linelevel: there is no filesystem of type run
[02:17] <auscompgeek> so that command won't work
[02:17] <linelevel> auscompgeek: :p Right. I'm an idiot.
[02:17] <auscompgeek> /run is a tmpfs
[02:18] <auscompgeek> yeah, you probably want to mount --bind from outside the chroot
[02:18] <Blaster> How can you run a command as www-data so you can see if you can access a certain directory?
[02:19] <Blaster> If www-data can, I mean.
[02:19] <linelevel> auscompgeek: Can you explain why should I prefer using `mount --bind` outside the chroot to using `mount -t` inside?
[02:19] <auscompgeek> linelevel: you want the same files that are in /run in /mnt/run, yes?
[02:19] <auscompgeek> so naturally you'll need to --bind
[02:19] <linelevel> Blaster: sudo -u www-data <whatever>
[02:20] <Bashing-om> linelevel: Here is the way i do a change root and have internet connectivity : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8811486/ .
[02:20] <linelevel> auscompgeek: Ah, okay, I get it now. That just clicked.
[02:21] <linelevel> Bashing-om: Did you mean to mount to /mnt/dev/pt rather than /mnt/dev/pts ?
[02:22] <Bashing-om> linelevel: OH, you are so correct ! I will edit to make it so !
[02:23] <nuke1989> what am i doing wrong in that comparison?  if ((i > 1)) rm -rf /home/user/screen.log ;
[02:25] <Bashing-om> linelevel: In the chroot, If internet is needed, ALWYS check and make sure DNS also works -> ping -c3 google.com <- .
[02:27] <auscompgeek> nuke1989: erm... is this bash?
[02:27] <auscompgeek> nuke1989: (this is the ubuntu channel)
[02:27] <nuke1989> yep in bash
[02:28] <Bashing-om> linelevel: Edit make, for your confirmation: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8811597/ .
[02:30] <auscompgeek> nuke1989: see `help if`, ask any further questions in #bash
[02:30] <nuke1989> auscompgeek, ok thanks! my bad!
[02:38] <linelevel> Bashing-om: Works perfectly, and /etc/resolv.conf now populates properly. (I had to edit it a bit for personal use since I have separate sub-mounted partitions for /home and /boot, but the edits are straightforward.)
[02:39] <linelevel> Bashing-om: Thanks for helping me understand that!
[02:39] <linelevel> auscompgeek too
[02:40] <Bashing-om> linelevel: Great ! Pleased it worked for ya ( and you have the comprehension to adjust for separate partitions !) .
[02:42] <black-core> hallo
[02:43] <lotuspsychje> did i miss any hints?
[02:43] <Bashing-om> linelevel: To be honest, It took a while to figure out that way around the broken symlink: -> /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc/resolv.conf !
[02:44] <ubuntuaddicted> anyone in here use backuppc? having trouble following this guide https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-backuppc-to-create-a-backup-server-on-an-ubuntu-12-04-vps
[02:44] <mr_clark> I upgraded my system last night from 14.04 to 14.10 but I'm still on 3.13 kernel. Is there a step I could be missing?
[02:45] <daftykins> ubuntuaddicted: their guides are for their VPSs, i'm not surprised if it doesn't work :P
[02:45] <auscompgeek> !info linux-generic
[02:46] <auscompgeek> mr_clark: two possibilities: you forgot to reboot, or the packages were held back
[02:46] <auscompgeek> mr_clark: in the case of the second, sudo apt install linux-generic
[02:46] <mr_clark> auscompgeek: No. I definitely rebooted. Rebooted a second time just now to make sure.
[02:47] <mr_clark> Thanks
[02:47] <mr_clark> installing.
[02:47] <daftykins> "ls /boot" would be far more helpful than blind reboots ;)
[02:47] <Bashing-om> mr_clark: Did the new kernels install -> ls -al /boot <- ?
[02:47] <auscompgeek> daftykins: indeed
[02:47] <mr_clark> no. there's only the 3.13 kernel in there.
[02:47] <decci> http://collabnix.com/?p=8
[02:47] <auscompgeek> decci: please don't spam
[02:48] <Charcoalflip> k1l: http://pastebin.com/Xfzwdp0k Here's my /etc/apt/sources.list file after the update.
[02:49] <mr_clark> looks to be working.
[02:49] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: Update is done! Anything else I should do now? My computer still seems to be working fine.
[02:49] <daftykins> Charcoalflip: just a reboot if a new kernel went on i guess!
[02:49] <Charcoalflip> daftykins: Okay! Thanks!
[02:49] <daftykins> np :)
[02:51] <ubuntuaddicted> daftykins, with what im having trouble with would have no impact whether this is a VPS, my local machine, or a machine in china. for some reason the entry box is missing. i found a backuppc irc channel so getting help there. thanks though
[02:52] <daftykins> ubuntuaddicted: good stuff. and actually VPSs can differ sometimes, so dial it down a bit :)
[02:56] <ubuntuaddicted> daftykins, not sure what you think would be different about it. it's ubuntu. we can agree to disagree
[02:57] <daftykins> well no because i deal in fact not opinion
[02:57] <daftykins> but nevermind
[02:57] <jason1> That can also be unpleasent.
[02:57] <jason1> I've heard that before.
[02:58] <jason1> Can you differentiate fact and opinion?
[02:58] <daftykins> this isn't #philosophy
[02:59] <jason1> The government doesn't seem to be able to read.
[03:00] <soLucien> Hi guys ! I'm running Ubuntu on a laptop partition , and it holds my dev environment. I got a number of IDEs, web servers , database servers ,php/jdk/python/etc, Terminator, maven, ant, ... and many others. I went through a lot of documentation reading and configuring ports/permissions to get to this point and so far things are fine. I am looking for a backup tool that can save all the installed programs , versions, settings , as well as my work and personal
[03:00] <soLucien>  files, without having to save all the files (since 80% of them were installed using apt-get , they are still in those repositories) . I do not need a full copy of the partition - just a specification of how it can be rebuilt.
[03:01] <soLucien> Is there any software that can currently do it ?
[03:01] <ubuntuaddicted> the "fact" is that ubuntu is the operating system, in respect to using backuppc its irrelevant whether it's running on hardware or on virtual hardware. that's not an opinion
[03:03] <soLucien> I googled it and i got 234341 different answers, most of them being able to back up files
[03:03] <jason1> They also have some observable discrepancies in memory, claiming the memories of others in the government.
[03:03] <jason1> To say they did an action another did, and then appear to really think it was the way they claim to recall.
[03:03] <jason1> daftykins: But "we" always think we are right don't we?

[03:05] <daftykins> jason1: this isn't the place for you to create dramas
[03:05] <daftykins> !ot
[03:05] <auscompgeek> soLucien: 1) get a list of your sources. 2) get a list of packages. 3) back up whatever files you need
[03:14] <yk324324> e
[03:16] <Ahmuck> The problem cannot be reported:
[03:16] <Ahmuck> This problem report is damaged and cannot be processed.
[03:16] <Ahmuck> PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied')
[03:16] <Ahmuck> suggestions?
[03:24] <lotuspsychje> Ahmuck: sounds like this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/999264
[03:29] <soLucien> auscompgeek : sounds like you are suggesting that i write it all myself
[03:31] <auscompgeek> soLucien: 1 is just /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list
[03:31] <soLucien> the "back up any files you need " part means i have to back up config files for tomcat, apache, nginx, intellij idea
[03:31] <soLucien> php.ini
[03:31] <soLucien> java opts
[03:32] <soLucien> and many others, one for each of the programs i've had to configure in the sources.list
[03:32] <soLucien> mysql , postgres , and list goes on

[04:24] <ejames> Hi all, I’ve got an odd problem that no amount of googling would turn up. I’m running 12.04 LTS, and when trying to change timezones, it tells me ‘cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Singapore': Too many levels of symbolic links. When I check the file, indeed it’s a symbolic link that points to ../posix/Singapore, which in turn is a symbolic link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Singapore
[04:24] <ejames> I guess my question is - how do I get rid of this odd symlink problem?
[04:25] <Ben64> ejames: take out one level of symlinks
[04:25] <ejames> oh, just remove?
[04:25] <Ben64> well just point it to the actual destination
[04:26] <Ben64> wait..
[04:26] <Ben64> its pointing to itself?
[04:26] <checkItO1t> you may try reinstall tzdata
[04:26] <ejames> Ben64: it’s pointing to ../posix/Singapore which is pointing to itself, yes
[04:26] <Ben64> oh thats bad
[04:26] <ejames> no idea how it got this way
[04:27] <Ben64> on my system... /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Singapore points to ../Singapore which is a file
[04:27] <ejames> interesting, lemme check it on mine
[04:28] <Ben64> and /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/Singapore is a symlink also to ../Singapore
[04:28] <checkItO1t> /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/Singapore -> ../Singapore
[04:28] <checkItO1t> should be like this
[04:29] <Ben64> indeed, and /usr/share/zoneinfo/Singapore is the real file being pointed to
[04:29] <ejames> hmm. noted. What’s the content of  /usr/share/zoneinfo/Singapore on your system?
[04:29] <ejames> e.g. less /usr/share/zoneinfo/Singapore
[04:29] <Ben64> its in timey wimey format
[04:29] <ejames> is it just an empty file?
[04:30] <ejames> oh man. Well mine’s just a symlink. Basically timezone file on my system right now is a symlink to another timezone file. Which is disgusting, lol.
[04:30] <checkItO1t> reinstall the tzdata package which includes all the zoneinfo files.
[04:30] <Ben64> that might work ^
[04:30] <ejames> ok will do
[04:31] <Ben64> if not i can give you the contents of mine
[04:31] <ejames> will do that now, tell you how it goes
[04:31] <ejames> much thanks
[04:32] <checkItO1t> apt-file search zoneinfo|grep "ingapore"  shows package which contains the file.
[04:34] <Ben64> ejames: http://sprunge.us/HcQY copy that to a file, then "cat file | xxd -r > Singapore" then you can copy that to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Singapore
[04:35] <ejames> gosh, thanks
[04:35] <Ben64> but you should try reinstalling tzdata first
[04:35] <ejames> yep, doing so now
[04:35] <Ben64> there might be other weird stuff going on
[04:38] <kriskropd> I need clarification on fsck usage "Entry 'sub_dir' in /dir_root (116654081) has deleted/unused inode 116655025.  Clear? "   - does saying yes to this "delete" the file or un-deletes?

[04:44] <HastaLavista> hi all
[04:45] <HastaLavista> can i ask about something?
[04:45] <HastaLavista> hello..
[04:45] <HastaLavista> ping
[04:47] <kriskropd> please just ask
[04:48] <kriskropd> !ask
[04:55] <Loshki> kriskropd: depends partly on what your plans are for the filesystem. If you want to recover lost data, you should do as little as possible until you run recovery tools.
[04:59] <Kirucat> I was trying to get out of Ubuntu 2D (I keep starting the computer in 3D but it's in 2D anyway) and followed instructions online to stop and restart lightdm. Now my computer looks like this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16623407/screenshots/ubuntu_huge.png I tried removing the file ".config/monitors.xml" but nothing changed. The error that comes up when I log in says: "could not apply the stored configuration for monitors". How do I fix it?
[04:59] <Charcoalflip> Argh, I don't know why IRC keeps giving me the wrong nick.
[05:00] <Charcoalflip> Oh, I also went into the display settings and my only choice is 640x480 (4:3).
[05:04] <kriskropd> Loshki: noted, but im just trying to understand the question itself - im asking more about a grammatical misunderstanding
[05:04] <kriskropd> Loshki: I genuinely cannot tell if fsck is asking if I want to clear the file or clear the inode error
[05:05] <kriskropd> Loshki: worse off, my google findings support a common misunderstanding of the question that never gets answered XD
[05:07] <niky> hi
[05:08] <firewire> hi
[05:10] <ejames> Ben64: thanks, reinstalling worked wonders
[05:10] <ejames> checkItO1t: thanks as well :)
[05:12] <Loshki> kriskropd: well, depending on the fs, the inode is more like a header pointing to a file. Further depending on implementation, that header may no longer point to any data, or be marked unused or deleted or otherwise noticeably corrupted. In that case, fsck is asking if it can clear this corrupted header (inode).
[05:15] <Charcoalflip> I had moved the monitors.xml file before, so now I actually sent it to the trash and rebooted, but Ubuntu is still in weird everything-is-huge mode.
[05:16] <pyromine> identify foobar
[05:20] <Loshki> kriskropd: did I answer your never answered question?
[05:20] <kriskropd> Loshki: ah, so its asking about the inode :s thanks for helping clarify
[05:20] <HikaruBG> hi guys
[05:20] <HikaruBG> I have two major problems with my Ubuntu
[05:21] <kriskropd> Loshki: I have a feeling, fsck expects us to be much more familiar with inodes than is practical outside of filesystem repairs :/
[05:21] <Charcoalflip> Okay, I'm going to try a guest session (ping Charcoalcat).
[05:21] <HikaruBG> I have Laptop Sony VAIO and after an update the Ubuntu recognizes 2 screens of my Laptop (and I have only one - the built display)
[05:22] <HikaruBG> how to fix that?
[05:22] <HikaruBG> I need the Ubuntu to recognize my ONLY display
[05:22] <HikaruBG> and not two
[05:23] <HikaruBG> Anyone?
[05:24] <Charcoalflip> Guest session is still huge, and so are Ubuntu 2D and Gnome Classic.
[05:24] <bubbasaures> HikaruBG, I think a screenshot of what this looks like might help, hard to tell what is up.
[05:25] <tuskkk___> what is better trusty or precise?
[05:25] <Blipsey> also throw us the model number HikaruBG
[05:25] <cfhowlett> tuskkk___, both are great.  both are supported.  choose for yourself.  easy to test.
[05:25] <HikaruBG> Sure thing guys, just tell me where to paste the Screenshot
[05:25] <HikaruBG> The model is
[05:26] <bubbasaures> !imagebin | HikaruBG
[05:26] <HikaruBG> VAIO VPCF126FM with nVidia Geforce 330M
[05:26] <tuskkk___> cfhowlett: Ok, getting my hands on with precise first, thanks
[05:26] <kriskropd> HikaruBG: I agree with bubbasaures - off the top of my head, it sounds like a xorg configuration that includes a monitor that isn't actually attached
[05:26] <cfhowlett> tuskkk___, happy2help
[05:27] <HikaruBG> http://imgur.com/hs0uMoe
[05:27] <HikaruBG> bubbasaures, http://imgur.com/hs0uMoe is the URL with the screenshot
[05:28] <HikaruBG> bubbasaures, just FYI this happened after an Update and also the Sound won't mute or adjust volume as well
[05:28] <HikaruBG> I have no clue where to fix the sound (Audio) thing too
[05:29] <Blipsey> you got proprietary gfx driver installed? thinking that might fix the xorg config, not sure though
[05:29] <bubbasaures> HikaruBG, I had wondered if this was where you were seeing it, not sure really.
[05:30] <kriskropd> the proprietary nvidia-settings driver does change the xorg.conf file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I think
[05:31] <HikaruBG> bubbasaures, you can't see the image?
[05:31] <kriskropd> might be retaining some kind of in correct settings there - idk what this gui thing is - ubuntu keeps changing designs around like everyone else <_<
[05:31] <HikaruBG> or you see it, but you are not sure about the problem?!?
[05:31] <bubbasaures> HikaruBG, I see it yes, just not sure why it would show this, I could only guess.
[05:32] <HikaruBG> ok - GUESS :) It is better than not knowing :)
[05:32] <HikaruBG> how about the Audio?
[05:32] <Blipsey> try my guess HikaruBG :)
[05:32] <HikaruBG> why my Volume controls nor the MUTE won't work
[05:32] <HikaruBG> Blipsey, I am listening
 you got proprietary gfx driver installed? thinking that might fix the xorg config, not sure though
[05:33] <HikaruBG> Let me see
[05:34] <HikaruBG> Blipsey, it is open-source driver
[05:34] <HikaruBG> should I get the one from nVidia?
[05:34] <HikaruBG> the latest one?
[05:35] <Blipsey> yeah give it a shot
[05:35] <Blipsey> you will have to reboot after you have activated it
[05:37] <Charcoalflip> I tried starting and stopping lightdm again, but it didn't help. ("sudo service lightdm stop" "sudo service lightdm start").
[05:38] <HikaruBG> Blipsey, actually before I install the original drivers from NVIDIA I think to revert to the original version that Ubuntu uses on the first install... the xorg drivers with NOUVEAU display driver
[05:38] <HikaruBG> and see what happens
[05:38] <HikaruBG> :)
[05:44] <gautam> Its Quiet boring
[05:45] <gautam> hey
[05:46] <Charcoalflip> I have this error from xrandr when I try to change the screen resolution through command line instead: "xrandr: cannot find mode 1024x768"
[05:50] <herpderphurr> hey everyone. When I run sudo aptitude update, I get the following error messages
[05:50] <herpderphurr> W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu/dists/trusty/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages: Bad header line [IP: 198.145.20.143 80]

[05:51] <herpderphurr> Should I be worried?
[05:51] <cfhowlett> herpderphurr, change your mirror to the main server and try again
[05:51] <herpderphurr> all right
[05:59] <imastupidguest> Id like to have my terminal open centered on the screen. Can anyone suggest how this might be done?
[06:00] <imastupidguest> I'm googlin' but I want to be sure I do this right as opposed to making a big mess by following wrong instructions
[06:01] <herpderphurr> well, if you're using the gnome-terminal, you can alias gnome-terminal to "gnome-terminal --geometry=blahblah"
[06:02] <herpderphurr> where blahblah is the specification of where your terminal should open, and how big it should be.
[06:03] <imastupidguest> I've been seeing some stuff about using compiz for that but I don't really want to run stuff that take much resources (if possible) and not sure what Ubuntu/Unity may already have.
[06:04] <herpderphurr> well, if you want to keep it simple, I still think the geometry option will be pretty light on resources
[06:05] <herpderphurr> All you need is a single line in your .bash_aliases file.
[06:05] <gautamappu> I am new to this operating system.
[06:06] <gautamappu> how can I install C++ on ubuntu ?

[06:07] <herpderphurr> gautamappu: You just need the C++ compiler for that.
[06:07] <eaglgenes101> sudo apt-get install g++
[06:07] <herpderphurr> gautamappu: You can use sudo apt-get install g++ to get started with that
[06:08] <gautamappu> @herpferphurr  : WHAT is G++
[06:08] <herpderphurr> gautamappu: g++ is the GNU C++ compiler.
[06:08] <gautamappu> herpferphurr : Thank you.. =)
[06:08] <imastupidguest> herpderphurr: I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were talking to me all this time.
[06:09] <herpderphurr> imastupidguest: Ah, sorry. A bit of my fault as well. I don't always include people's nicks in my responses.
[06:10] <imastupidguest> herpderphurr: I'm guilty of the same  ;)
[06:10] <imastupidguest> herpderphurr: thanks by the way.
[06:10] <herpderphurr> imastupidguest: No problem. I am out for the night. plenty of work to do tomorrow
[06:11] <imastupidguest> herpderphurr: peace out man  :)
[06:11] <gautamappu> herpderphurr: I got the g++. now how do i install C++
[06:12] <eaglgenes101> ok create a c++ program first
[06:12] <imastupidguest> gautamappu: I thought g++ was the c++ compiler
[06:12] <eaglgenes101> it is
[06:12] <imastupidguest> guys, am I mistaken?
[06:12] <eaglgenes101> it compiles files
[06:12] <eaglgenes101> so do you have a .cpp file?
[06:12] <imastupidguest> oh, is he asking the commands to compile a cpp file?
[06:13] <eaglgenes101> argh
[06:13] <herpderphurr> ah, I'm back for a bit. gautamappu, unlike Java, you do not need to install anything other than a compiler to get started with writing C++ applications and programs.
[06:13] <gautamappu> imastupidguest: Oohh so i had it all the time??
[06:14] <gautamappu> imastupidguest: I have a .cpp file
[06:14] <herpderphurr> gautamappu: in the terminal, run "g++ /path/to/your/cpp/file"
[06:14] <herpderphurr> gautamappu: an executable named a.out will be created in the same directory you ran that command.
[06:15] <gautamappu> imastupidguest: let me try.
[06:15] <[ifroog]> Hi! Anyone using hamachi here?
[06:15] <imastupidguest> gautamappu: And if you want to name the output file a name of your choice use the -o flag ( ie: g++ /path/to/your/cpp/file -0 nameOfFile.cpp
[06:15] <herpderphurr> -o, not -0
[06:16] <imastupidguest> oops, sorry  :)
[06:16] <herpderphurr> I haven't written anything in C++ in a long time. kinda sad :(
[06:16] <herpderphurr> ah well, I prefer C anyway :p
[06:16] <herpderphurr> okay, now I'm really out.
[06:16] <geirha> herpderphurr: that will destroy the .cpp file
[06:16] <imastupidguest> Java
[06:16] <imastupidguest> if I ever learn it
[06:17] <imastupidguest> herpderphurr: peace out
[06:17] <Charcoalflip> [ifroog]: It's better to just ask the question instead of asking if someone knows about the thing in general.
[06:23] <[ifroog]> Alright, I'm trying to a network on hamachi, which i created earlier, from another computer, away from home. but it says network is full. =/
[06:26] <imastupidguest> Does anyone know which of : gdevilspie or just writing editing some system file/files would be more, err, (native?) to the system? (What I mean is - would effect the placement and geometry of windows, not after the fact, but cause them to just open that way to beginwith).
[06:26] <imastupidguest> For Ubuntu 14.04 with unity
[06:28] <imastupidguest> Dunno how gdevilspie does what it does; but, given the choice, I would prefer a method where window open the way I want them to using a little resources and as close to the native unity/ubuntu system as possible.
[06:30] <imastupidguest> And using a common method for all window placement/geometry as well ( not different ways for different windows/programs)
[06:32] <undecim> Ubuntu will not boot on my Desktop. Knoppix and Ubuntu Server CD boot fine, but an installed system and lubuntu-desktop CD won't boot. I can get ISOLinux (Bios-type boot) or Grub2 (EFI Boot) to work fine, but as soon as I pick a boot option, my monitor loses signal, and my numlock is stuck. What could be causing this?
[06:32] <hateball> imastupidguest: If that is important to you, you might want to check out KDE Plasma. We've got window manager rules all native like over here.
[06:32] <[ifroog]> Anyone know which channel i could ask about hamachi questions?
[06:32] <hateball> I guess you could run kwin as a WM in another DE...
[06:32] <somsip> !alis | [ifroog]
[06:32] <undecim> ...even SysRq keys do nothing
[06:33] <imastupidguest> hateball: Interesting. You know, I did fiddle with kubuntu for a few weeks once.
[06:35] <imastupidguest> hateball:  Does kde have anything like desktops or anything where you can have different, err, launchers show up grouped based on activity type (ie: entertainment, development, etc) ?
[06:36] <hateball> imastupidguest: Yes, it's called Activities :)
[06:36] <Charcoalcat> I tried to make a new screen resolution using xrandr, and when I switched to it, it said "input signal out of range" on my monitor, and now I can't use ubuntu except from the tty. I tried to change it back to 640x480, but xrandr says "Failed to change the screen configuration!" Help? My Ubuntu computer is basically unusable now.
[06:37] <hateball> imastupidguest: You can have it remember apps and such, and if they are closed it will launch them when you switch to Activity X. Note I don't actually use the function myself, only played a bit with it
[06:43] <undecim> Charcoalcat, did you set DISPLAY?
[06:44] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Yes, I wrote "export DISPLAY=:0" beforehand.
[06:44] <undecim> Charcoalcat, tried rebooting or restarting lightdm?
[06:44] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Not yet, I'll try.
[06:45] <undecim> sudo service lightdm restart should do it
[06:46] <basil1x> Anyone know of an Ubuntu-friendly tablet?
[06:46] <Charcoalcat> undecim: I restarted lightdm, now I have an error screen with "could not write bytes: Broken pipe" and some other stuff.
[06:47] <undecim> Charcoalcat, I'd go for a full reboot then...
[06:49] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Okay, I can see Ubuntu again. By the way, restarting lightdm (or rather, stopping and starting) is why I tried changing the resolution in the first place - it made me get stuck in 600x480 (and I still am).
[06:50] <undecim> Charcoalcat, What are the outputs of 'xrandr' and 'lspci | grep VGA'?
[06:52] <imastupidguest> hateball: Sorry, had a small electrical fire to deal with. Thx for sharing. I'll check out a youtube vid or two on it.  :)
[06:52] <Charcoalflip> undecim: xrandr output http://paste.kde.org/pclkqs4lb/rnkto3
[06:52] <hateball> imastupidguest: Good luck !
[06:53] <Charcoalflip> undecim: http://paste.kde.org/pihs23j5a/jrrbnl And the other thing.
[06:55] <undecim> Charcoalflip, What is your normal resolution? And what does 'grep LoadModule /var/log/Xorg.0.log' show?
[06:56] <Charcoalflip> undecim: I think my normal resolution is 1280x1024. And it shows this: http://pastebin.com/v3nJ1vKb
[06:57] <Charcoalflip> (1280x1024 is what my monitor told me it wants when I had the error.)
[06:57] <undecim> Charcoalflip, can you paste the whole Xorg.0.log?
[06:57] <jj_> text
[06:58] <jj_> hi
[06:58] <Charcoalflip> undecim: http://pastebin.com/gdGvTvqK
[07:00] <Chuck_Norris> excuse me but...
[07:01] <Chuck_Norris> hello all -.-
[07:01] <undecim> Charcoalflip, strange. The intel module seems to be detecting all the right modes, but not xrandr
[07:01] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Can I add more modes to xrandr?
[07:02] <ObrienDave> Chuck_Norris, do you have an Ubuntu support question?
[07:02] <undecim> Charcoalflip, --addmode
[07:02] <loa> is there way to make hotkeys system wide, i am talking about fn keyes. For example brightness
[07:03] <undecim> Charcoalflip, try xrandr --addmode VGA1 1280x1024
[07:03] <Chuck_Norris> and... Charcoalflip, mmm... souonds like you had an nvidia graphic card and you didnt unload from the bios, could you do that, to see if that it that what is causing problems ?
[07:03] <undecim> Chuck_Norris, Intel card
[07:03] <Chuck_Norris> ObrienDave: no, thanks
[07:03] <undecim> Chuck_Norris, http://paste.kde.org/pihs23j5a/jrrbnl
[07:04] <Chuck_Norris> undecim:  yeah, but there you can see that he had a nvidia card
[07:04] <undecim> Where?
[07:04] <Charcoalflip> undecim: It says this if I do that. xrandr: cannot find mode "1280x1024"
[07:04] <undecim> Charcoalflip, What kind of card do you have?
[07:06] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: I installed nvidia drivers earlier trying to fix a different problem, so it might be saying something about that?
[07:06] <Charcoalflip> undecim: I think an Intel card.
[07:07] <undecim> Charcoalflip, What problem were you trying to fix by installing nV drivers?
[07:07] <undecim> Charcoalflip, I would try adding 'nomodeset' to your kernel line
[07:09] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalflip:  uninstall all things related to nvidia:  sudo apt-get remove nvidia-*
[07:09] <Charcoalflip> undecim: I tried installing the nV drivers earlier when Unity wasn't working (I couldn't click on the launcher, use the dash, or move programs around, and there were no window decorations). I read somewhere that upgrading the nvidia drivers would help (it didn't).
[07:09] <Charcoalflip> undecim: How do I add something to my kernel line?
[07:10] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: Okay, I'll try.
[07:10] <Charcoalflip> w
[07:10] <undecim> Charcoalflip, You can press 'e' on an option in the grub menu, then find the line that begins with "linux" and append "nomodeset". This will make the change for 1 boot.
[07:11] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: *Why is it removing dolphin-emu??
[07:11] <Chuck_Norris> idk -.-
[07:11] <susundberg> huh, does that wildstar really work, doesnt bash match it for the files
[07:11] <undecim> Charcoalflip, If it indeed fixes it, you can add the option to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub, then do "sudo update-grub"
[07:12] <dlam> in desktop windows, i want Alt-<backspace> to delete the previous word  (like emacs)  anyone know how to do that?
[07:12] <Chuck_Norris> but... you arnt using KDE i supose, so go on
[07:12] <dlam> like Ctrl+W does it
[07:12] <susundberg> dlam: you need to configure your editor, i would guess there is no such thing for all programs (browsers, text editors etc)
[07:12] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Okay. I have to reboot to get into the grub menu, right?
[07:12] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Yes. You have to reboot to change your kernel line at all.
[07:13] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: dolphin-emu is an emulator, not a KDE thing, but I'll just reinstall it later.
[07:13] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Okay, be right back.
[07:13] <dlam> susundberg:  works on mac  :D
[07:14] <Anastasia->  www.taxiathouston.com  www.houston-cab.com  www.24hriahairport.com  www.tophoustonlimo.com  www.houstontexaslimo.com
[07:14] <dlam> i think i got it work on gnome/kde or something (but that was fedora)
[07:14] <Chuck_Norris> oh! right, i got confused it is an emulator
[07:15] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Okay, the grub menu didn't come up when I rebooted.
[07:15] <undecim> Charcoalcat, I think you have to hold left Ctrl (or right Ctrl?) if you have only 1 OS
[07:15] <undecim> Or some key... let me look it up
[07:16] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalcat:  just edit:  /etc/default/grub
[07:16] <Chuck_Norris> no need to reboot for that
[07:17] <undecim> Charcoalcat, Yeah, just do what Chuck_Norris said. After, do 'sudo update-grub' and then reboot to apply it.
[07:17] <Charcoalcat> Okay!
[07:18] <Charcoalcat> Left ctrl put me on a black screen with C5 in the corner, by the way. (I'm out of that screen now.)
[07:18] <undecim> Hmmm... I thought the menu skip code was in /boot/grub/grub.cfg, but I can't find it
[07:19] <undecim> I just remember that it's a specific modifier key
[07:19] <sharpshooter> Hi folks, My ubuntu boot manager is broken and I booted to live ubuntu cd and installed boot-repair app to re-install on my system at last I got an error and also one pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/8814505/
[07:19] <sharpshooter> can anyone help me with this ?
[07:21] <Charcoalcat> Okay, rebooting now.
[07:23] <HikaruBG> hi guys
[07:23] <HikaruBG> The graphic drivers are fixed!
[07:23] <Charcoalcat> undecim, Chuck_Norris: It's still 640x480 after that.
[07:23] <HikaruBG> the Audio - still not
[07:24] <swift110-phone> Hey
[07:24] <undecim> sharpshooter, Usually to reinstall the bootloader, I chroot from a live cd then do grub-install, update-grub
[07:24] <Chuck_Norris> mmm... could you paste: lsmod
[07:25] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalcat:  could you paste: lsmod
[07:26] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: http://pastebin.com/dyYqAigT
[07:26] <bubbasaures> sharpshooter, I would try a chroot, everything looks good in the script, no details on the error is all.
[07:27] <HikaruBG> guys how to reconfigure my Audio with Modprobe?
[07:28] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalflip:  i would like to suggest you intalling obiaf PPA but most people here wouldnt be agreed with me :p
[07:28] <Chuck_Norris> idk -.-
[07:29] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Are you running with the nomodeset line now?
[07:30] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalflip: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade  -.-  :p
[07:31] <undecim> You shouldn't need to do that for an intel card...
[07:31] <bubbasaures> sharpshooter, did you have Software Center, Update Manager, an apt-get or Synaptic
[07:31] <bubbasaures> open
[07:31] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Did you update recently?
[07:32] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: What's the obiaf PPA?
[07:33] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Yes, I should be running with the nomodeset line now.
[07:33] <Charcoalflip> undecim: And yeah, I did an update earlier.
[07:34] <Chuck_Norris> its a repository with the latest graphics binaries in it, it will upgrade your i915 module, so that i could solve the problem, o r not -.-
[07:35] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalflip:   https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers
[07:35] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Can you paste the new Xorg.0.log?
[07:37] <Charcoalflip> undecim: http://paste.kde.org/pz1rare3a/xhg6mc
[07:38] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: I added the PPA.
[07:39] <undecim> Charcoalflip, It certainly seems that your monitor switched from the intel driver to the compatability(vesa) driver
[07:40] <Charcoalflip> Huh.
[07:41] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Well in the new Xorg.0.log, the intel driver isn't even finding modes
[07:42] <Chuck_Norris> if you updated, and then upgraded, then restart
[07:43] <Charcoalcat> undecim: The problem started when I stopped and started lightdm; can doing that change your drivers?
[07:43] <undecim> Charcoalcat, If you did an update before that
[07:43] <undecim> Charcoalcat, then the binaries can update, and if there is a bug, it will fallback to the vesa driver
[07:45] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Okay, that makes sense, since I had updated maybe a couple of hours prior.
[07:45] <Charcoalcat> Chuck_Norris: No change after rebooting.
[07:45] <undecim> Charcoalcat, Though in the older log, it unloads the vesa module, so it must have been using intel before the nomodeset
[07:45] <undecim> Charcoalcat, What does xrandr look like?
[07:46] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalcat: did you had a nvidia pluged in the motherboard?
[07:46] <Charcoalflip> undecim: xrandr output http://pastebin.com/yScaJkT3
[07:47] <undecim> Charcoalflip, You should remove nomodeset
[07:48] <undecim> Charcoalflip, All it did was keep the intel driver from loading :/
[07:49] <Charcoalcat> undecim: Okay, I remoed it, so I'll reboot again.
[07:50] <Charcoalcat> *removed
[07:51] <Chuck_Norris> do: sudo update-grub
[07:51] <Chuck_Norris> first
[07:53] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: I did make sure to do update-grub first.
[07:53] <Chuck_Norris> ok ok
[07:54] <Charcoalflip> (thanks for the reminder, though)
[07:54] <Chuck_Norris> np
[07:55] <Chuck_Norris> so, you never had a nvidia card? you never configured the to load other graphic card ?
[07:55] <Chuck_Norris> the bios*
[07:55] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: I don't think so.
[07:56] <Chuck_Norris> the pc isnt yours?
[07:57] <Charcoalflip> Chuck_Norris: It's mine, but I don't know if I did something that would have configured it to load another bios.
[07:57] <Chuck_Norris> ok, np
[07:58] <Leoneof> hi, i have question about LTS (Long Term Support), does it mean that Ubuntu will upgrade my old software to newer versions? or it will keep same versions but with fix bugs only?
[07:58] <Charcoalflip> undecim:  http://pastebin.com/ZtnfazF6 New Xorg.0.log.
[07:59] <Ahmuck> how do i delete the program that is creating the guest account?
[08:00] <Chuck_Norris> Leoneof:  software too
[08:01] <Leoneof> Chuck_Norris: for example, it will upgrade from kde 4.13 to kde 4.14?
[08:01] <Leoneof> or 4.13.x ?
[08:01] <Charcoalflip> http://paste.kde.org/ptuwhib0t/g6pzcn Can I do this to make a new resolution? This is what I did before that broke things, but I copied these numbers from the Xorg.0.log.
[08:02] <undecim> Charcoalflip, go for it
[08:02] <Chuck_Norris> idk if would do that but, furefox 33 -34 would
[08:02] <Leoneof> :[
[08:02] <undecim> Charcoalflip, I think that's supposed to happen before the --addmode
[08:02] <Charcoalflip> undecim: X Error of failed request:  BadName (named color or font does not exist)
[08:03] <Charcoalflip> (http://askubuntu.com/questions/211276/display-resolutions-missing-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-12-10 this is the page I'm looking at)
[08:03] <Chuck_Norris> Leoneof:  open gksu gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[08:04] <Chuck_Norris> and edit "allow-guest=true" so it looks like:  "allow-guest=false"
[08:04] <undecim>  Charcoalflip That's for AMD cards
[08:04] <undecim> Charcoalflip, But might be similar
[08:04] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Oh. Hm.
[08:05] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Well, the question is, but the instructions with xrandr should work on any card
[08:07] <Leoneof> Chuck_Norris: you're chatting with wrong person :)
[08:07] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Oh, there's more to the error: http://paste.kde.org/p7xk3bkcc/2enmjp
[08:07] <Chuck_Norris> nope. i was writing to you -.-
[08:08] <Charcoalflip> Okay, I changed it the name of the mode to "1280p" and it seems to like that. (read that here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/851704/xrandr-errors-badname-named-color-or-font-does-not-exist)
[08:08] <Leoneof> Chuck_Norris: i have nothing to do with lightdm, i've been asking about LTS only :p
[08:09] <Chuck_Norris> oh!, yeah, so it was another user xD sry
[08:10] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Now the the --addmode
[08:10] <Leoneof> :p
[08:10] <Charcoalflip> undecim, Chuck_Norris: It worked!! Apparently 1280x1024 is actually way bigger than my normal resolution but now I know it can work.
[08:11] <undecim> Charcoalflip, sweet. No idea why you would have to add the mode manually....
[08:11] <Chuck_Norris> Charcoalflip: so glad
[08:11] <Charcoalflip> \o/
[08:11] <Chuck_Norris> xD
[08:12] <undecim> Charcoalflip, Add it to Xorg.conf to make it automatic. One of your links explained how
[08:12] <Charcoalflip> undecim: Okay!
[08:12] <Charcoalflip> Actually maybe this is my normal resolution? It looked weird because it made all of my programs really tiny.
[08:13] <Chuck_Norris> they shoud be tiny :p
[08:13] <undecim> Charcoalflip, maybe you were never using your full resolution before?
[08:13] <reetammitra> Hello people

[08:14] <Charcoalflip> undecim: I probably wasn't.
[08:18] <Chuck_Norris> reetammitra:  as much as any other ubuntu based distro
[08:21] <Charcoalflip> Okay, got it in the Xorg conf!
[08:22] <Chuck_Norris> isnt something about DE, i meant it shoud be no problems with lxde, if some framework is missing some libraries then you will be able to download its dependences
[08:25] <mjayk> Bumblebee or primus in 14.04
[08:25] <reetammitra> Okay thanks a lot @chuck_Norris

[09:18] <somsip> ylmfos: so the bit about EOLUpgrades will apply
[09:18] <UseTh3S0urce> So is 15.04 available now? Are there mir drivers for older hardware?
[09:18] <ylmfos> really ubuntu 15.04 is available?
[09:19] <UseTh3S0urce> Beta I thought
[09:19] <somsip> ylmfos: no. It comes out in April 2015, hence 15.04
[09:19] <UseTh3S0urce> There are beta release on the ftp
[09:19] <UseTh3S0urce> It's not a stable release yet
[09:19] <ylmfos> but is ubuntu 14.10
[09:19] <somsip> ylmfos: yes. It came out in October 2014.
[09:20] <UseTh3S0urce> I just don't it has many mir drivers
[09:20] <UseTh3S0urce> Gunna be a headache to write all them mir drivers
[09:21] <UseTh3S0urce> Should have gone either the pack and went with wayland
[09:21] <UseTh3S0urce> Already 10x more drivers.
[09:21] <UseTh3S0urce> And a package to convert xorg drivers to Wayland drivers.
[09:29] <mregg> Hi all -- I just setup Ubuntu server 14.04.1 on an Intel NUC (core i3). Works great, except that I'm facing a strange situation with regards to network connectivity (ethernet). If I obtain an IP though the DHCP server, everything is fine. However, if I set a static IP, I lose connectivity after about 10 minutes. If I cron the machine to ping another one, I'll lose connectivity after a number of hours. Any suggestion as to what might be causing

[10:10] <AlexPortable> touchpad
[10:11] <jesk> i just installed ubuntu server 14.04.1 LTS and wanted to try I out a openstack installation from the scratch (guide from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/cloud/install-ubuntu-openstack)
[10:11] <jesk> the openstack installer stucks in "Importing MAAS boot images"
[10:11] <venkat_330> trouble in HDD partition..I am little confused with fdisk output: http://pastebin.com/E1nPw30F
[10:12] <jesk> anyone with a bit of experience in installing openstack?
[10:16] <ikonia> jesk: just ask the question
[10:17] <jesk> ikonia: what could I do to solve that problem?
[10:17] <ikonia> what problem
[10:18] <jesk> (11:11) < jesk> the openstack installer stucks in "Importing MAAS boot images"
[10:18] <ikonia> what do the logs say on it's status ?
[10:18] <Bantu____>  /close
[10:18] <jesk> something like that:
[10:18] <jesk> INFO 2014-11-04 12:08:30,573 twisted RegionServer connection lost (HOST:IPv4Address(TCP, '127.0.0.1', 39387) PEER:IPv4Address(TCP, '127.0
[10:18] <klander> hey guys. I'm having a bit of a dependency issue while trying to install php5-memcached. I was hoping I could get some advice on what to do next? Here's the bash output: http://pastebin.com/nZcn1YTx
[10:19] <jesk> ikonia: this happen all few minutes
[10:19] <ikonia> jesk: so that shows it's lost connection to the host which is communicating on localhost
[10:19] <ikonia> that looks you've got a PPA thats caused a conflict with products nothing to do with php
[10:20] <jesk> ikonia: i'am a bit clueless about the openstack 'stack'... i just followed instructions from ubuntu
[10:20] <ikonia> so your php install is failing because other conflicts before your php install
[10:20] <ikonia> jesk: then why are you doing this ?
[10:20] <jesk> ikonia: to get clue :-)
[10:21] <ikonia> jesk: ok, so start researching it then
[10:21] <Hercules> how do I solve.
[10:22] <ikonia> Hercules: solve what ?
[10:22] <Hercules> The command could not be located because '/usr/sbin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
[10:22] <Hercules> This is most likely caused by the lack of administrative privileges associated with your user account.
[10:22] <Hercules> I am using Ubuntu 14.04
[10:22] <ikonia> Hercules: what are you doing
[10:22] <Hercules> I am trying to start sbnc
[10:22] <ikonia> Hercules: how
[10:22] <ikonia> what command are you running
[10:22] <Hercules> by typing " sbnc "
[10:23] <Hercules> because it cannot be runned on root
[10:23] <ikonia> Hercules: please show me the output of the command "which sbnc"
[10:23] <Hercules> ikonia: /usr/sbin/sbnc
[10:23] <geirha> better to use type than which, since which may be lying
[10:23] <funkt> Hi there I have connected up my local server with lamp I was just wondering is there a folder which keeps all the databases created in phpmyadmin
[10:24] <ikonia> why would which be lying ?
[10:24] <geirha> ikonia: it won't tell you about any aliases or functions by the same name for instance
[10:24] <ikonia> geirha: good
[10:24] <ikonia> geirha: I want to know the $PATH output which will tell you
[10:24] <ikonia> Hercules: so you can see it is in your path
[10:25] <geirha> ah, in that case it would be ''type -P sbnc'' when using the type builtin
[10:25] <ikonia> ...or I could just use which
[10:25] <Hercules> ikonia
[10:26] <Hercules> Please see your PM.
[10:27] <Hercules> ikonia: are u there ?
[10:27] <geirha> ...sure, I just feel it's more useful to learn type than which
[10:27] <Hercules> How do I give privilege to my account to make it run sbnc ?
[10:27] <Hercules> geirha ?
[10:28] <Hercules> anyone here to help me ?
[10:28] <geirha> Hercules: You are trying to run it in a terminal?
[10:29] <Hercules> yeah.
[10:29] <Bushmaster> hello folks, just a quick problem that need to be resolved, I am in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I have another empty partition of 44 GiB in ext3 where I would like to store some of my media files, however from file manager in ubuntu when I am trying to move a media file, it is not allowing me giving me a pop up note reflecting i am not allowed, how do i solve this issue?
[10:29] <geirha> Hercules: and   echo "$PATH"   includes  /usr/sbin   in the output?
[10:30] <cfhowlett> Bushmaster, sudo mv ....
[10:30] <Hercules> it is lacking the administrative privileges
[10:30] <Hercules> its saying
[10:30] <Hercules> to run the sbnc
[10:30] <Hercules> how do I give privilege for it ?
[10:30] <ikonia> Hercules: sudo
[10:30] <cfhowlett> Bushmaster, of course, you'll need to format the empty partition first
[10:30] <geirha> Hercules: You want to be able to run it as root?
[10:30] <Hercules> ikonia: it doesn't allow.
[10:31] <Hercules> geirha: it says it cannot run threw the root.
[10:31] <ikonia> Hercules: so then it doesn't need root privileves/administrative privileges
[10:31] <geirha> Hercules: No, it doesn't say that.
[10:31] <Bushmaster> yes it is saying i do not have the permission to create that media folder in that empty partition which is already formatted to ext3 anyway cfhowlett and Hercules
[10:32] <Hercules> geirha
[10:32] <Hercules> please see ur PM
[10:32] <Bushmaster> Hercules: yes it require privilege and how i give that ?
[10:33] <Hercules> Bushmaster: Can u tell me how do I give that account privilege for that ?
[10:33] <effsd> please dont laugh, whats the command to list all connected cd drives and usb storages?
[10:33] <effsd> lsblk or something?
[10:33] <effsd> it is lsblk
[10:33] <Bushmaster> i do not know Hercules
[10:34] <cfhowlett> effsd, lslbk
[10:35] <philinux> from man lsblk - list block devices
[10:35] <cfhowlett> effsd, sorry lsblk
 how to enter it, the device is listed as sdb
[10:35] <bstarek> lsusb
[10:35] <bstarek> effsd, lsusb
[10:35] <effsd> thank you
[10:35] <bstarek> effsd, you could find it by googling..
[10:35] <Bushmaster> cfhowlett: any idea how i can transfer these files?
[10:36] <effsd> cd /sdb doesnt work, it says no directory?
[10:36] <bstarek> effsd, sdb is a partition not a directory
[10:36] <bstarek> effsd, it needs to be mounted
[10:36] <effsd> its mouted
[10:36] <effsd> mounted allready
[10:36] <bstarek> then its monted somewhere
[10:36] <bstarek> maybe /media/
[10:37] <cfhowlett> Bushmaster, if even sudo mv failes, IDK what is happening... permissions is the only thing I can guess at
[10:37] <bstarek> effsd, do "df -h"
[10:37] <bstarek> or "sudo df -h"
 youre right, its in media
[10:37] <philinux> effsd;~ lsblk -o KNAME,TYPE,SIZE,MODEL
[10:37] <bstarek> it will tell you where it is mounted
[10:37] <Bushmaster> cfhowlett: hang one a minute, u want me to type sudo mv in the terminal?
[10:38] <cfhowlett> Bushmaster, sudo mv filenamehere filetargethere
[10:39] <Bushmaster> that will take long time cfhowlett  i guess, can it not be possible to transfer via file manager
[10:39] <cfhowlett> Bushmaster, sudo nautilus to test that ...
[10:43] <effsd> when i try to overwrite acl permissions to files on a usb drive terminal says "setfacl not supported" and now i listing all the files
[10:43] <effsd> "Operation not supported"
[10:43] <bstarek> effsd, what command did you do
[10:44] <effsd> sudo setfacl -Rdm u:username:rwx /base/
[10:44] <effsd> how can i set "everyone" as a username
[10:44] <sabun^> hm
[10:44] <bstarek> effsd, im not familliare with setfacl, i am more a "chown" guy
[10:45] <effsd> bstarek, i need to move the files from the usb drive to the pc, no matter how
[10:45] <effsd> but i get a input/output error because those have permissions set
[10:45] <bstarek> effsd, what is the problem with that? whats the command you are issuing?
[10:45] <bstarek> effsd, write the command down
[10:46] <effsd> the same one sudo setfacl -Rdm u:username:rwx /base/
[10:46] <bstarek> effsd, why dont use the "cp" command????
[10:46] <effsd> i am a noob :|
[10:47] <effsd> cp /path1/ /path2/ ?
[10:47] <bstarek> i am a noob to but i can search: "cp -rf /folder/ /remote_folder/
[10:47] <bstarek> effsd, -rf is for folder
[10:47] <effsd> let me try
[10:47] <Welastevil> hi everyone
[10:48] <bstarek> actually -f is to force it..
[10:48] <Welastevil>  so.... I just installed the termino0logy terminal emulator
[10:48] <Welastevil> but I can not open picturesand ideos on it... someone have some idea?
 it seems to be working i see files in the folders
[10:50] <bstarek> effsd, good
 just no indicator, well no it stopped
[10:51] <bstarek> effsd, how do you know it stopped?
[10:51] <Welastevil> someone using terminology?
[10:51] <effsd> "terminal task finished"
[10:51] <bstarek> did it throw any error?
[10:52] <somsip> Welastevil: what version of ubuntu are you running?
 No such dir.
[10:52] <effsd> file or dir.
[10:52] <bstarek> effsd, maybe because your remote directory does not exist?
[10:52] <bstarek> effsd, you need to troubleshooting
[10:53] <effsd> I dont know, the data seems there from the Files browser
[10:53] <Welastevil> the most fresh one
[10:53] <bstarek> effsd, all of it?
[10:53] <effsd> lol usb unmouted it itself
[10:54] <effsd> bstarek whats the command for cut and pase
[10:54] <effsd> paste
[10:54] <somsip> Welastevil: how did you install terminology?
[10:54] <bstarek> from terminal?
[10:54] <effsd> yes
[10:54] <effsd> with -f
[10:54] <effsd> force
[10:55] <bstarek> effsd, i dont understand what you are asking.  from what i see you are not doing your research properly.
[10:55] <bstarek> effsd, do you research and then come back
[10:56] <Welastevil> from the ubunt software store
[10:56] <Welastevil> Im running it now....
[10:56] <bstarek> effsd, i could find the cut/paste command just byu googling, then you can do it too.
[10:56] <Welastevil>  but I can not display 8images in it
[10:56] <effsd> i want to move the data from the usb, cut and paste it on the desktop
[10:57] <effsd> i dont use google :(
[10:57] <vitimiti> effsd, if you want to move the files from a place to another, not just cp them, use mv /folder /usb, that should take the files from your computer, though
[10:57] <vitimiti> Or viceversa, mv /usb /folder
[10:57] <bstarek> effsd, you need to use google. you will learn
[10:57] <effsd> thank you
[10:57] <bstarek> effsd, cp -r /media/usb /home/user/Desktop
[10:57] <juro> hi, I started a copy process with the & flag. Now, I can see that its process code is S (interruptible sleep) but I don't know how to see what it's waiting for?
[10:58] <effsd> mv /source /target right?
[10:58] <effsd> thanks
[10:58] <Surendil> cp -rp, running cp -r as root would change permissions
[10:58] <vitimiti> effsd, that will cut. But you know pendrives don't really free their storage by just cutting
[10:59] <effsd> bstarek "Device or source is busy."
[10:59] <sagat> bom dia
[10:59] <bstarek> effsd, because it might still be copying
[10:59] <vegombrei> i have an old vaio tx27gp its a tiny laptop .. windows xp is making that laptop cry .. can i install ubuntu on it
 i will wipe it later
[10:59] <sagat> alguém por favor poderia mde dar uma ajuda
[11:00] <bstarek> effsd, wait or unmout
[11:00] <sagat> infelizmente não falo ingles
[11:00] <sagat> alguem ai me entende
[11:00] <Surendil> effsd: i agree with bstarek, you should do you research first
[11:00] <cfhowlett> vegombrei, lubuntu or xubuntu would likely be better
[11:00] <sagat> entrei no ubuntu-br mas o povo la brinca muito
[11:00] <cfhowlett> !br | sagat,
[11:00] <k1l_> !pt | sagat
[11:00] <Surendil> effsd: if you don't use and don't want to use google, then use man
[11:01] <bstarek> Surendil, if he cant use google then he wont use man...
[11:01] <dumballover> Ciao qualcuno sa come installare gothic 2 su ubuntu 14.10 Lts?
[11:01] <somsip> !it | dumballover
[11:01] <Surendil> bstarek: can't or wont?
[11:02] <ppf> so, what can i do about "previous or current modules file missing!" when creating a new kernel flavour?
[11:02] <dumballover> Ok thank you ubottu
[11:02] <Surendil> as far as i know, no need of browser to use man and learn the command
[11:02] <bstarek> Surendil, "Can't". man is not always easy, sometimes there are too many options that you dont know where to start.
[11:03] <bstarek> Surendil, true.

[11:04] <nukecrasher53> hey guys i have trouble with pulseaudio
[11:04] <nukecrasher53> daemon is not responsing
[11:04] <nukecrasher53> when i type "killall pulseaudio" it's unkillable
[11:04] <nukecrasher53> same as pulseaudio --kill
[11:05] <Surendil> bstarek: i agree with you too, but there's a difference between learning 'cp' than 'ln'
[11:05] <Surendil> basic commands
[11:06] <bstarek> Surendil, exactly. but GOOGLE is really a must for troubleshooting.
[11:06] <Surendil> bstarek: totally
[11:07] <bstarek> nukecrasher53, check the processes in system monitor if you have a GUI
[11:08] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: ps ax | grep pulse - get PID and then you can kill PID or kill -9 PID
[11:09] <bstarek> Surendil, you went straight to the end :))
[11:09] <Surendil> bstarek: hahaha
[11:10] <bstarek> Surendil, you have to give them, so they know what they are doing :))
[11:10] <bstarek> Surendil, clues
[11:11] <Surendil> bstarek: you are right, sometimes i can't help myself
[11:12] <bstarek> Surendil, true but it wasnt that easy when you learned things i bet!...plus you understand them better...
[11:12] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: oh, by the way, command kill sends signal 15, to kill soft
[11:12] <Surendil> or was it 11?
[11:13] <theadmin> Surendil: It sends SIGTERM by default.
[11:13] <theadmin> Surendil: Can't remember which, you can use kill -KILL to send the actual "kill" signal (yes, I know it seems redundant)
[11:15] <Surendil> theadmin: thanks
[11:16] <theadmin> Surendil: See "man 7 signal" for numbers of signals, their identifiers (names) and descriptions.
[11:21] <Simplar> Hello, I have a bit of serious issues with ubuntu 14.10
[11:21] <Surendil> theadmin: nice, thanks...and yes, it was signal 15 (SIGTERM)
[11:22] <Simplar> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8817569/
[11:22] <Simplar> I've installed clean ubuntu 14.10
[11:22] <Simplar> did updates
[11:23] <Simplar> then did these commands on terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8817569/
[11:23] <Simplar> then I have tried to install boost_1_57_0
[11:23] <theadmin> Simplar: Why are you installing GMP from source? You shouldn't do that.
[11:23] <theadmin> Simplar: You can install Boost from the repositories too.
[11:23] <theadmin> !find boost
[11:23] <theadmin> Simplar: Whichever of those you need.
[11:24] <Simplar> theadmin, it seems that boosts are....well....already in system
[11:24] <Simplar> the program i try to compile tells me the following: ‘class boost::filesystem::directory_entry’ has no member named ‘filename’
[11:24] <Simplar> FoundMaps = i->filename();
[11:24] <Simplar> this function malfunctions there
[11:25] <D30> guys, a little bit of inquiry here,.. does ufw needs to be stop while using iptables?
[11:26] <theadmin> Simplar: Are you sure you link the library when compiling?
[11:26] <fraytormenta> geh
[11:27] <Simplar> theadmin, makefile of the program contains -libboost_system-mt
[11:27] <Simplar> and some other libs
[11:27] <Simplar> sec
[11:28] <theadmin> Simplar: Well, it should link to libboost_filesystem
[11:28] <theadmin> Also you will want to make sure that libboost-filesystem and libboost-filesystem-dev are actually installed.
[11:28] <Simplar> theadmin, here is its makefile: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8817633/
[11:28] <theadmin> (or whatever the packages are called in Ubuntu)
[11:29] <theadmin> Oh, okay, hm.
[11:29] <theadmin> !find boost-filesystem
[11:29] <Simplar> theadmin, if filesystem'd not been installed, it'd threw me an error that it's not found
[11:29] <theadmin> Simplar: Nah, you could easily have the header but not the actual library
[11:29] <theadmin> Which is often the cause of these errors
[11:30] <Simplar> theadmin, then it's the question how to completely uninstall boost?
[11:30] <theadmin> Simplar: Do: sudo apt-get install libboost-filesystem1.55.0 libboost-filesystem-dev
[11:30] <theadmin> And no, don't try to remove boost, many programs will want it
[11:31] <Simplar> theadmin, installing now
[11:32] <Hercules> how to install ncurses with apt on ubuntu ??
[11:32] <theadmin> Hercules: The actual library?
[11:32] <theadmin> !find libncurses
[11:32] <Simplar> theadmin, it's done installing. Now I try to compile program again?
[11:32] <theadmin> Hercules: sudo apt-get install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev
[11:32] <theadmin> Simplar: Yeah, should work.
[11:32] <Hercules> ok
[11:33] <Simplar> theadmin, it still doesn't work. Same error. :o
[11:33] <theadmin> Buh.
[11:34] <theadmin> Okay I dunno
[11:34] <Simplar> theadmin, I'm trying to compile ghost++ 17.1 actually
[11:35] <theadmin> Simplar: I never tried to use it so I doubt I can help
[11:35] <Simplar> trying to install libboost-all-dev now
[11:35] <Simplar> maybe it'll work
[11:35] <Simplar> anyways i have a backup of clean system if sth goes wrong :)
[11:36] <D30> Simplar: ghost++ is for what?
[11:36] <Simplar> D30, it's a hosting bot for warcraft 3's servers. I'm trying to stabilize it under Linux system. Already had success with doing so for StormLib and bncsutil, they compile without any error.
[11:37] <D30> ahhhh
[11:37] <amedeo> !list
[11:38] <Simplar> Though, ghost++ requires boostlibs to work.
[11:41] <abishek> I am new to shell script and I need a bit of a help with one particular task, could someone help regarding this. What I am trying to acheive is, when I call `git pull` it basically outputs all the updates from the previous pull. I basically want all the output to be stored into a variable on the shell script that I can use to pass to a curl object.
[11:42] <Simplar> #include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
[11:42] <theadmin> abishek: $var = $(git pull)
[11:42] <Simplar> is it correct include?
[11:42] <theadmin> Simplar: It should be unless Ubuntu changed something around.
[11:42] <abishek> theadmin, is that all? so I can use $var on the curl?
[11:42] <theadmin> abishek: Err. Without the first $
[11:42] <theadmin> abishek: var = $(git pull) ; curl $var
[11:43] <Simplar> let's suppose I want to find where Ubuntu thinks -lboost_filesystem-mt is
[11:43] <abishek> ok, let me give this a try, thanks for the help. appreciate it
[11:43] <Simplar> that could really explain much
[11:44] <theadmin> Simplar: Also, I'm not sure the packages on Ubuntu provide the -mt versions of libraries
[11:46] <Simplar> well
[11:46] <Simplar> since I really do have a full system backup
[11:46] <Simplar> how do I remove whole boost libraries from system?
[11:47] <Simplar> i want to test up how it will behave without any boost lib
[11:52] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: ok gonna killed pulseaudio
[11:52] <kristofers> mint 17 freezes on boot when ide marvell adapter is enabled at bios can anyone help?
[11:53] <nukecrasher53> then im typed "pulseaudio --start" and it just stays
[11:53] <nukecrasher53> i mean it takes along to start
[11:54] <nukecrasher53> but it's still not responsing
[11:55] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: also i forgot when i typed "ps ax | grep pulse" it gave e this
[11:55] <nukecrasher53>  5606 pts/11   S+     0:00 grep pulse
[11:56] <nukecrasher53> oh not this
[11:57] <nukecrasher53> i was using fish then i switched to bash and this command (typed in bash) gave me this
[11:57] <nukecrasher53>  5606 pts/11   S+     0:00 grep pulse
[11:57] <nukecrasher53>  5886 ?        D<l    0:00 pulseaudio --start
[11:57] <nukecrasher53>  5892 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper
[11:57] <nukecrasher53>  6005 pts/11   D+     0:00 grep --colour=auto pulse
[12:00] <tastybud> #haskoin
[12:00] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: see the first numbers?
[12:01] <x3rd> hey, what's up?
[12:02] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: that is called PID (process ID)
[12:03] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: kill PID - will send SIGTERM signal to the process
[12:03] <cnap> Hey guys I got an issue :( I am on Ubuntu x64 bit 14.04 LTS and I created a secondary user without password
[12:03] <cnap> then I logged out
[12:03] <cnap> and now I cannot log in with any of the users
[12:03] <cnap> I tried to reinstall ubuntu-session from apt but no luck :/
[12:04] <trijntje> cnap: how can you reinstall if you cannot log in?
[12:04] <Surendil> cnap: once login screen press ctrl-alt-f2
[12:04] <cnap> Maybe issue was caused because I installed gnome-fallback
[12:04] <D30> what about the user you created with no password?
[12:04] <cnap> trijntje: from shell?
[12:04] <Surendil> try to login there as user or root, then change passwd
[12:04] <cnap> D30: cant login
[12:05] <cnap> Surendil: I cant login as root afaik
[12:05] <cnap> since its disabled for security, i didnt even enable it
[12:05] <BluesKaj> Hiya folks
[12:06] <cnap> Surendil: ok password changed. How to go back to login screen?
[12:06] <Surendil> ctrl-alt-f1
[12:06] <Surendil> alt-f7
[12:06] <cnap> goes back to tty1
[12:06] <cnap> Surendil: ok with alt f7 but still issue remains :/
[12:06] <cnap> I also checked home permissions for my users, they seem fine
[12:07] <Surendil> you were able to change user passwd from tty but can't access from gtk?
[12:07] <cnap> yes
[12:07] <cnap> I can login perfectly from tty
[12:08] <cnap> i think there could be a conflict because I created a new user now
[12:08] <cnap> but I had installed gnome-callback 2 days agho
[12:08] <cnap> ago*
[12:08] <Surendil> O_o
[12:10] <cnap> what the hell is this bug.. and I need my os in about 40 mins
[12:10] <Surendil> cnap: tty or gtk, doesn't matter which, uses same passwd
[12:11] <D30> true
[12:11] <Surendil> if you can login on tty, you should also do on gtk
[12:11] <cnap> I cant. I click on login and I hear that sound Tourout
[12:11] <cnap> and nothing happens
[12:11] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: when i send SIGTERM into PA it refuses the signal
[12:11] <tester> i
[12:11] <nukecrasher53> aka not killing
[12:12] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: then use kill -9 PID
[12:12] <Frnk> hi there, i installed a ubuntu (via an install.iso) as a guest in kvm/qemu and basically clicked through the install process. but now, rebooting, after grub it just says "out of range pointer" and "no bootable device". I think root/boot device (/dev/vda1, /dev/vda5) is not found, but why grub was not configuered right, by the ubuntu instlal wizzard?
[12:12] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: signal 9 = kill sigal
[12:12] <nukecrasher53> if i try SIGINT?
[12:12] <Surendil> cnap: it's a real mystery my friend
[12:13] <tester> hi
[12:13] <nukecrasher53> ok it's kille
[12:13] <nukecrasher53> d
[12:13] <D30> cnap: how about creating another user with password and try using that new user to login again via tty or gtk
[12:13] <cnap> Surendil: maybe bug was caused becaused I named my new user as "guser" ? I just deleted it
[12:13] <cnap> D30 wait i will try it
[12:13] <nukecrasher53> PA is killed
[12:13] <Surendil> D30: good idea, new user and that's it
[12:14] <darkloweturk> Hi
[12:14] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: well, now, you don't have sound, restart service and enjoy?
[12:14] <cnap> yeah but still i need to login with my admin acc
[12:15] <cnap> OH GOD
[12:15] <cnap> it won't login either with the new user
[12:15] <cnap> is gtk linked to gnome-fallback ?
[12:15] <D30> cnap:  how did you create new user?
[12:15] <cnap> sudo adduser test1
[12:16] <trijntje> cnap: can you be specific, what happens when you try to log in?
[12:16] <D30> then you are able to login via tty :p
[12:16] <cnap> trijntje: I select user, I put password and nothing happens
[12:16] <cnap> just this ubuntu sound plays that "Tourout" or something
[12:16] <trijntje> cnap: press enter ;)
[12:16] <cnap> no error or note
[12:16] <D30> what account did you use when create user test1?
[12:16] <D30> cnap: ^
[12:16] <cnap> D30: my main admin acc
[12:17] <cnap> trijntje: its not that. It tries to open the session but screen goes black for 1 sec and then plays the sound "Tourout" and back to login screen
[12:17] <D30> okay... so what happen next after you create that user test1?
[12:17] <cnap> D30: then I clicked log out, to try the new user
[12:17] <Surendil> cnap: then your problem is not login, is gtk
[12:17] <cnap> and can't login on any GUI now
[12:17] <cnap> yes Surendil
[12:17] <trijntje> cnap: that sounds like the xserver crashes
[12:17] <cnap> sorry if I didnt express it well
[12:18] <cnap> can I see logs somehow ?
[12:18] <trijntje> cnap: can you select another environment before logging in and see if that works?
[12:18] <Surendil> on tty /var/log
[12:18] <cnap> trijntje: tried it, none of the 2 gnomes or unity works
[12:19] <nukecrasher53> Surendil:
[12:19] <cnap> Surendil: but which one ?
[12:19] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: still not responsing
[12:19] <nukecrasher53> i dont know watafak is causing it to freeze
[12:20] <Surendil> cnap: Xorg.0.log
[12:20] <cnap> wanna me send it to you somehow ?
[12:20] <Surendil> cnap: pastebin
[12:21] <cnap> ok but i will have to email it to myself somehow firstly lol
[12:21] <D30> cnap: you can directly tail the log and paste in pastebin
[12:21] <hateball> !info pastebinit
[12:22] <trijntje> cnap: you can install the program pastebinit to paste things from the terminal
[12:22] <cnap> oh cool thx
[12:22] <D30> trijntje: +1 :)
[12:22] <cnap> how many lines of tail u need ?
[12:22] <Surendil> the ones with error
[12:23] <cnap> i dont see something bad there really
[12:23] <cnap> on the last lines
[12:23] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: still not responding
[12:24] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: sorry, where were we?
[12:24] <cnap> ok here http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818192/
[12:24] <Surendil> cnap: then check /var/log/lightdm or gdm
[12:25] <nukecrasher53> i tried sudo service pulseaudio --full-restart
[12:25] <cnap> and here is complete log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818198/
[12:25] <nukecrasher53> Surendil: you told me to restart PA
[12:25] <nukecrasher53> i tried sudo service pulseaudio --full-restart
[12:25] <nukecrasher53> but still not responding
[12:26] <nukecrasher53> when i launched pavucontrol it says "Estabilishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait..."
[12:27] <cnap> ok Surendil and D30 and trijntje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818229/
[12:27] <Surendil> nukecrasher53: let me think
[12:28] <Simplar> okay...
[12:28] <Surendil> guy, could Xorg crash not being able to find fonts? like it says on Xorg.0.log
[12:28] <Simplar> I've solved my issue
[12:28] <Simplar> it was syntax conflict of old and new boost :)
[12:29] <cnap> Surendil: what do you mean ?
[12:29] <White_Cat> hi, I am trying to forward ports
[12:29] <White_Cat> http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2014/09/how-to-install-openerp-odoo-8-on-ubuntu-server-14-04-lts/ <- I am following this
[12:29] <White_Cat> apt-get install iptables-persistent
[12:29] <White_Cat> but the commands listed seem to not work
[12:30] <White_Cat> Bad argument `–dport'
[12:30] <trijntje> cnap: can you put the whole file on pastebin?
[12:30] <cnap> trijntje: which one ?
[12:30] <nukecrasher53> oh i need to relogin
[12:30] <Surendil> i mean tihs: [   232.903] (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi" does not exist.
[12:30] <Simplar> How to install multithreaded boost libraries in Linux?
[12:30] <cnap> Should I try any of these: http://askubuntu.com/questions/159663/how-to-reset-the-xorg-xserver ?
[12:31] <cnap> Surendil: I dont know I didnt do anything with those fonts
[12:31] <trijntje> cnap: Xorg.0.log
[12:31] <D30> cnap: maybe a conflict of what you have installed days ago
[12:32] <cnap> D30: could be :/
[12:32] <cnap> but nothing regarding xorg lol
[12:32] <cnap> trijntje: one sec please
[12:33] <cnap> trijntje: here http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818297/
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> make your life easy and reinstall 14.04 clean
[12:34] <cnap> lotuspsychje: lol what if u knew
[12:34] <Surendil> trijntje: could the problem be not being able to find fonts?
[12:34] <trijntje> Surendil: I dont know
[12:34] <trijntje> cnap: that file looks fine by me, what about Xorg.0.log.old
[12:34] <cnap> should I try reinstalling something
[12:35] <cnap> trijntje: ill paste this too one sec
[12:35] <cnap> here http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818333/
[12:35] <Surendil> trijntje: i don't see any other errors
[12:36] <D30> Surendil: sure its a mystery :p
[12:36] <cnap> due the the thing im doing, i had to reinstall ubuntu twice coz of my bad and then repartition it like 2-3 times xD
[12:36] <lotuspsychje> maybe lightdm got messed up by installing gnome fallback
[12:37] <Surendil> it sure is
[12:37] <trijntje> I dont know what the problem is :(
[12:37] <White_Cat> how can I forward ports with ubuntu?
[12:37] <cnap> :(
[12:37] <lotuspsychje> !iptables | White_Cat
[12:37] <BadApe> White_Cat: same way you can on any other distro
[12:37] <BadApe> oh lol
[12:37] <cnap> should i try reconfiguring xorg or irrelevant?
[12:37] <Surendil> cnap: install xcfe =p
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> cnap: you can always try failsafeX from grub recoverymode
[12:38] <Fr0Zn__> hello
[12:38] <D30> cnap: what are gonna use this machine for?? you said you need this is about 40mins
[12:38] <BadApe> i don't get way people have such issues installing linux, it is far easier than windows
[12:38] <Fr0Zn__> hi
[12:38] <cnap> I had a meeting with a guy
[12:39] <cnap> Surendil: should I install xcfe ?
[12:39] <BadApe> has anyone tried installing windows on a brand new dell laptop compared to installing almost any linux distro
[12:39] <lotuspsychje> BadApe: well its easy indeed, unless its a nasty bug
[12:39] <cnap> will replace the module that handles loggin in with GUI ?
[12:39] <cnap> lotuspsychje: one sec
[12:39] <cfhowlett> BadApe, for windows support go to ##windows
[12:40] <Surendil> cnap: you would be able to change gtk, not loggin gui.
[12:40] <BadApe> lotuspsychje: i've installed linux on a huge range of hardware, since 98, around 06 linux became so easy i found falling off my chair harder
[12:40] <cnap> Surendil: so its fixable? I dont care how I login lol
[12:40] <lotuspsychje> BadApe: same here mate :p
[12:40] <mikael> Help! When I closed the lid on my laptop, the screen went blank, but when I took it out of my backpack, it was extremly hot. It didn't go to sleep. How can I manage this? The settings says that it should go to sleep.
[12:40] <BadApe> actually it was slackware 96
[12:40] <lotuspsychje> BadApe: a lot of issues can be solved reainstalling clean
[12:41] <lotuspsychje> BadApe: but lets stick to topic :p
[12:41] <Surendil> cnap: its another visual grahp env. like gnome or kde, but lighter
[12:41] <BadApe> lotuspsychje: i have machines i've upgraded with no reinstalling for years
[12:41] <cnap> Surendil: i prefer lightweight stuff. So i just install it ?
[12:41] <BadApe> sorry i was ranting
[12:41] <cnap> like this : sudo apt-get install xfce4 ?
[12:41] <yoshi314> cnap: run tasksel, and pick xubuntu-desktop
[12:41] <yoshi314> this will install some extras
[12:42] <cnap> yoshi314: ok trying this now
[12:42] <BadApe> sorry to suggest this, but you could try linuxmint
[12:42] <BadApe> it is basically ubuntu with different desktops
[12:42] <yoshi314> BadApe: or he can add cinnamon ppa , there is probably one
[12:42] <Surendil> cnap: what yoshi314 said
[12:42] <BadApe> yoshi314: i found the ppa to be not so good
[12:42] <yoshi314> BadApe: well, they do vary in quality
[12:42] <cnap> but guys will xfce replace the gtk ?
[12:42] <cnap> sorry I dont understand how all this work
[12:43] <k1l_> cnap: the Lubuntu flavour is the lightweight department on ubuntu
[12:43] <k1l_> !lubuntu | cnap
[12:43] <yoshi314> cnap: xfce uses gtk2, it won't replace it
[12:43] <BadApe> but that was a few years ago
[12:43] <BadApe> cnap: xfce is gtk2 based
[12:43] <BadApe> cnap: what exactly is your problem?
[12:43] <cnap> so Surendil why do you think it may work ?
[12:43] <yoshi314> and gtk2 and gtk3 are installable side-by-side, if that is what worries you
[12:43] <cnap> oh ok
[12:43] <lotuspsychje> BadApe: he cant login anymore after installing gnome fallback
[12:43] <cnap> so gnome-fallback + unity use gtk3 ?
[12:43] <BadApe> oh dear
[12:44] <BadApe> cnap: you can try purge off gnome-fallback
[12:44] <k1l_> cnap: what is the error you get? or do you just get put back to the login screen?
[12:44] <BadApe> try something like apt-get --purge autoremove gnome-fallback
[12:44] <k1l_> BadApe: wait
[12:44] <Surendil> k1l_: get's put back to login screen
[12:44] <BadApe> i find it strange you can't login
[12:45] <cnap> k1l_: exactly what u said. I see a black screen for 1 sec and then sound "Tourout" plays and then back to login screen
[12:45] <BadApe> i find it more plausible that you login and things crash out on you
[12:45] <k1l_> BadApe: could you please just advise things you really know what you are doing? thanks
[12:46] <cnap> So to recap. I am able to login via shell. Cant login via GUI
[12:46] <k1l_> cnap: please loginto the tty (ctrl+alt+f1) and see if in that users home the .Xauthority file belongs to user:user. (see with ls -al)
[12:46] <cnap> All I did is to create a new user without password
[12:46] <cnap> and gnome fallback was working just fine the rest of the days
[12:46] <cnap> k1l_: sure one sec
[12:46] <k1l_> cnap: come back from tty with ctrl+alt+f7
[12:47] <cnap> k1l_: both of my users have this file and it belongs to them
[12:47] <cnap> k1l_: as I said before I cannot login with any user at all!
[12:47] <cnap> I tried removing the other one, making new one.. no difference
[12:48] <k1l_> ok. do you see any errors in .xsession-errors?
[12:48] <cnap> Could the issue be caused because I named the first user "guser" ? Is that something being used by ubuntu ?
[12:48] <Surendil> cnap: yes, you can login, but X crashes, there's a difference
[12:49] <BadApe> as i said it is more plausible that he can login but it crashes out on him
[12:49] <cnap> Surendil: yes sorry my bad expressing myself
[12:49] <cnap> k1l_: indeed theres a weird error http://paste.ubuntu.com/8818535/
[12:49] <cnap> I dont understand how this is linked
[12:49] <cnap> I have exported lots of variables to /etc/profile
[12:49] <cnap> so I can compile and do different stuff android oriented
[12:50] <cnap> so /etc/profile is for all users and after i made my 1st secondary user issue was caused
[12:50] <k1l_> cnap: ok. i think that is the possible cause
[12:51] <cnap> k1l_: me too! I think I know why
[12:51] <cnap> k1l_: I unzipped those sdk tools etc with my user and should belong to my main user acc. But the other one trys to add trhem in his PATH
[12:51] <cnap> but has no permissions or something
[12:52] <cnap> oh mu god!
[12:52] <cnap> it worked!
[12:52] <cnap> i just erased those env vars from /etc/profile
[12:52] <Surendil> k1l_: nice one[   232.903] (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi" does not exist.
[12:53] <Surendil> k1l_: nice one
[12:53] <cnap> wow that was such a pain
[12:54] <Surendil> cnap: =)
[12:55] <cnap> ok guys Surendil, D30, lotuspsychje, BadApe, trijntje, k1l_ I DO THANK YOU from the bottom of my hearts
[12:55] <cnap> I can make it on time :D
[12:55] <cnap> and I taught a lesson today. Never touch /etc/profile ol
[12:55] <nnu-sky> test write
[12:55] <cfhowlett> hearts?  plural?  alien!
[12:55] <cfhowlett> !test | nnu-sky, test passed
[12:56] <raub> So I need to create a windows USB bootable disk. Can I just use dd in my ubuntu laptop and copy dvd into a usb drive?
[12:56] <nnu-sky> あああ
[12:56] <cfhowlett> raub, to make windows media, best to use windows tools.
[12:56] <dx486> raub: what do you mean by windows usb bootable?
[12:56] <hateball> !windows
[12:57] <BadApe> cnap: best thing to do is avoid deploying global config changes, you never know what that might break when installing packages etc
[12:57] <raub> Windows does frustrate me; I was going for a civilized solution
[12:57] <raub> But, hey thanks anyway
[12:59]  * raub finds amusing he was told he was asking help with windows software
[12:59] <cnap> BadApe: right! I got my lesson today :)
[13:00] <mozzarella> guys help
[13:00] <k1l_> raub: ubuntu uses hybrid isos. that works with dd. we cant know what windows wants to be done with their isos. please ask them how to creat a windows usb stick
[13:00] <mozzarella> I have downloaded vlc but I can't use it to open video files
[13:00] <mozzarella> it's not in the right click menu inside nautilus
[13:00] <k1l_> mozzarella: "downloaded"?
[13:01] <mozzarella> k1l_: also installed… lol
[13:01] <sabun^> raub pahang
[13:01] <k1l_> mozzarella: from their website?
[13:01] <lotuspsychje> mozzarella: you mean the indicator section video playing?
[13:01] <mozzarella> from the ubuntu software center
[13:01] <k1l_> mozzarella: ah ok. that is good.
[13:02] <Surendil> mozzarella: you can find it on /usr/bin/vlc
[13:02] <k1l_> mozzarella: did you re-login?
[13:02] <mozzarella> Surendil: I know where to find it
[13:02] <mozzarella> k1l_: IIRC, yes
[13:02] <k1l_> mozzarella: i think it needs a nautilus restart to make that come into the menu
[13:02] <mozzarella> I closed all my nautilus windows and opened a new one
[13:03] <mozzarella> but didn't change anything
[13:03] <k1l_> mozzarella: no, that is not enough
[13:03] <k1l_> pleas log out and log in again to make sure it gets restarted
[13:04] <mozzarella> oooh, I "killall nautilus"'d and now vlc is in the menu
[13:04] <k1l_> ok, so you didnt relogin before :)
[13:05] <auscompgeek> the command is `nautilus -q`
[13:05] <zaffy> wow, that's kind of a M$ behaviour...
[13:05] <mozzarella> IMO, things like that should Just Work (tm)
[13:06] <k1l_> well, then talk to gnome about their nautilus behaviour in that case :)
[13:06] <mozzarella> it worked great in fedora, I think it's the ubuntu fork/patched version
[13:07] <lotuspsychje> its normal vlc will play, but menu entry needs a restart
[13:08] <Frnk> aaarrgh: qcow2 requires a file system so this is not available through LVM.
[13:10] <hemangpatel> Can i install google chrome 34 in ubuntu 12.10 ? i got this error -> http://pastie.org/private/bxf4qxd8joznv1gtbdpw
[13:10] <cfhowlett> hemangpate, 12.10 is not supported.  upgrade
[13:11] <gr33n7007h> hemangpatel, try sudo apt-get -f install
[13:11] <BadApe> is 12.10 even supported any more?
[13:11] <hemangpatel> gr33n7007h, not working
[13:11] <cfhowlett> BadApe, as I said, NOPE
[13:12] <gr33n7007h> hemangpatel, upgrade then?
[13:12] <cfhowlett> !12.10
[13:12] <hemangpatel> office pc
[13:14] <cfhowlett> hemangpatel, your office lets you take a computer on the internet with no security upgrades or support?
[13:14] <hemangpatel> cfhowlett, I have old pc
[13:14] <hemangpatel> with old ubuntu OS
[13:15] <k1l_> hemangpatel: that is not reason for a insecure OS because it doesnt get any security patches anymore.
[13:15] <Ben64> hemangpatel: you could have been on 12.04 and still have support
[13:15] <k1l_> hemangpatel: you can still run 12.04
[13:15] <cfhowlett> this ^^^^
[13:15] <Ben64> i never understand why people don't like LTS
[13:15] <k1l_> hemangpatel: you dont have patches for shellshock or other big ones
[13:16] <ahmet> hi
[13:16] <hemangpatel> ok i'm going. thanks for suggestions
[13:17] <rcspam> Hi all, anyone can help me with yad dialog: i want to put icons in menu (yad --notification)
[13:17] <Ben64> rcspam: yad?
[13:18] <rcspam> Ben64  zenity like
[13:18] <Ironchunk> !12.04
[13:19] <Ben64> rcspam: not really helping, and i don't see any yad in the repository
[13:19] <cfhowlett> !info yad
[13:19] <rcspam> Ben64 http://sourceforge.net/projects/yad-dialog/
[13:20] <Ben64> rcspam: oh, well we can't support non-ubuntu packages
[13:20] <rcspam> Ben64 you really dont know it ?
[13:20] <Ben64> i really don't
[13:21] <cfhowlett> rcspam, 3rd party package not from ubuntu = no reason we would know about it.
[13:21] <Ben64> i don't know every package in ubuntu, let alone everything on sourceforge
[13:21] <rcspam> cfhowlett, Ben64 ok thanx good Bye
[13:22] <Lope2> how can I check if firefox is running on display :3 ?

[13:25] <YourPlaceOrMine> ty
[13:25] <cfhowlett> YourPlaceOrMine, if your system is 64 bit capable, run 64
[13:25] <YourPlaceOrMine> ok ty

[13:29] <Simplar> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8819069/
[13:30] <Simplar> How to get rid of those errors?
[13:31] <eth00> I added a NIC to a server but ethtool is unable to find the device. lshw lists it (but as disabled). I currently have 3 NICs total and doing ethtool ethX only shows two of them (the onboard NICs). The new NIC is listed first in the lshw list. I have this server on a remote management console so its no big deal to wipe anything/everything out in regards to the network. Any ideas how to get the
[13:31] <eth00> NIC visible to the OS?
[13:32] <k1l_> Simplar: i would ask the specialists from the stuff you want to compile there
[13:32] <Simplar> k1l, this project was abandoned long ago. ;)
[13:32] <k1l_> Simplar: oh well.
[13:34] <frdmn> hello
[13:34] <frdmn> can someone tell me how to install nice and ionice via PPA?
[13:34] <frdmn> cant find it anymore
[13:34] <frdmn> :o
[13:35] <Pici> frdmn: er.. nice and ionice should already be installed.
[13:36] <frdmn> Pici: :o
[13:37] <frdmn> wow, you're right
[13:38] <frdmn> Pici: thank you, mate
[13:38] <Pici> np
[13:39] <Leoneof> hi, i have question about LTS (Long Term Support), does it mean that Ubuntu will upgrade my old software to newer versions? or it will keep same versions but with fix bugs only?
[13:39] <darius7> I have PostgreSQL 9.1 on Ubuntu 14.04.  There is a Slony-1 package for PostgreSQL 9.3 (postgresql-9.3-slony1-2), but no such package for PostgreSQL 9.1.  There appear to have been Slony-1 packages for 9.1 in previous releases.  Can a package from the previous release be used?
[13:40] <k1l_> Leoneof: in most cases: security and bug patches
[13:40] <k1l_> Leoneof: but excluding browsers and thunderbird. and you can get LTS backport kernels and xorg
[13:41] <sisu> hello everybody. Alsa with amd hdmi fglrx has very distorted sound. the kernel says snd_hda_intel 0000:01:00.1: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #1. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj. I have done it. But it still says the same sentence.
[13:42] <Leoneof> k1l_: ok, does it mean they will use kde 4.14 as long as LTS is active? :\
[13:42] <k1l_> Leoneof: yes.
[13:42] <Leoneof> k1l_: i see, thanks!
[13:45] <Rovanion> Is it possible to remove the high contrast themes from a system?

[14:24] <White_Cat> how can I forward ports with ubuntu server? I want to forward port 80 to 8069
[14:24] <compdoc> ubuntu server isnt a firewall
[14:25] <White_Cat> compdoc no I know that
[14:25] <White_Cat> but its a port connection thats connected
[14:26] <White_Cat> a user connecting to the ubuntu server from port 80 should be redirected to port 8069
[14:26] <compdoc> dont know what you mean
[14:26] <White_Cat> not to a different machine, still the same machine
[14:26] <Bishika> I'm trying to mount the ramdisk and I'm getting bad fs type, bad option, bad superblock on tmpfs. Any idea for a fix I used sudo mount -t tmpfs -o side=3000M tmpfs /mnt/ramdisk1
[14:26] <Bishika>  
[14:26] <Bishika>  
[14:26] <compdoc> did you enable a firewall on the server?
[14:26] <compdoc> if not, all ports are open
[14:27] <White_Cat> compdoc err, if a user types 192.168.1.25 they actually type 192.168.1.25:80
[14:27] <White_Cat> on a browser
[14:27] <White_Cat> I want 192.168.1.25:80 to go to 192.168.1.25:8069
[14:27] <compdoc> right, youy dont have to add :80
[14:28] <White_Cat> so that user does not need to type a port
[14:28] <kriskropd> White_Cat: I've never heard of redirecting ports like that - what you can do is have apache listen in to ports 80 and 8069 and share the same website when users visit it
[14:28] <kriskropd> you can redirect ip address, but not ports
[14:28] <compdoc> you could modify apache to listen on 8069, but their browsers wont use that port automatically
[14:28] <White_Cat> its not on apache I believe
[14:28] <White_Cat> http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2014/09/how-to-install-openerp-odoo-8-on-ubuntu-server-14-04-lts/
[14:28] <kriskropd> not that I'm aware of anyways
[14:28] <White_Cat> apt-get install iptables-persistent
[14:29] <White_Cat> iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp –dport 80 -j REDIRECT –to-port 8069
[14:29] <White_Cat> does that ring a bell, it is giving me errors so i am unsure how correct it is
[14:29] <compdoc> if you placed a firewall in front of the server, you could forward ports like that
[14:29] <kriskropd> White_Cat: ngingx, whatever your http server is, should be capable of listening to whatever port you specify - 8080 for instance is a VERY common http alternative
[14:29] <dmek> is it possible to port unity without much effort or is it really diffucult because of patches to gtk or whatever?
[14:29] <compdoc> oh, ok. iptables can do that too
[14:29] <White_Cat> Kris545545 its an openerp/odoo server - its rather complicated so I want to touch it as little as possible
[14:30] <cristian_c> I can't unmount sdcard from gparted anymore
[14:30] <White_Cat> sorry I meant kriskropd
[14:30] <White_Cat> kriskropd am I doing it wrong?
[14:31] <White_Cat> Bad argument `–dport'
[14:31] <cristian_c> How can I make the same operation as 'create a new partition table'?
[14:31] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[14:31] <dmek> cristian_c: im not sure, but i remember i had problems with gparted too, i used then fdisk to create partitions for example
[14:31] <kriskropd> White_Cat: yeah, --to-port, not -to-port - first mistake i see
[14:31] <kriskropd> --dport not -dport
[14:31] <White_Cat> ah!
[14:31] <cristian_c> dmek, fdisk command only?
[14:31] <cristian_c> :)
[14:31] <dmek> it has some kind of textual gui
[14:31] <kriskropd> also , til you can redirect ports with iptables .o.
[14:31] <dmek> just look yourself you see then
[14:31] <cristian_c> dmek, what guiS?
[14:32] <dmek> textual... no graphical
[14:32] <cristian_c> *GUIs
[14:32] <cristian_c> dmek, sorry
[14:32] <Bishika> I'm a twat I typed side instead of size >.>
[14:32] <cristian_c> dmek, but I don't know the exact command
[14:32] <dmek> cristian_c: gentoo.org handbook, chapter where you partition hdd
[14:32] <cristian_c> ok
[14:33] <dmek> cristian_c: you find there explanation for using fdisk, u can use this knowledge for other too
[14:33] <GODDOG> VIM边的越来越卡了
[14:33] <dmek> its really easy to use
[14:34] <k1l_> !cn | GODDOG
[14:35] <kriskropd> cristian_c: cgdisk is a little prettier than fdisk - you could try that
[14:36] <kriskropd> chrissg: though fdisk, gdisk, cfdisk, cgdisk and parted - all pretty much do and look similar
[14:36] <kriskropd> <_<
[14:37] <White_Cat> iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8069
[14:37] <White_Cat> that didnt do it
[14:37] <White_Cat> didnt give an error either
[14:37] <White_Cat> I rebooted it as well
[14:38] <compdoc> White_Cat, try your question about iptables in ##networking
[14:38] <White_Cat> compdoc it is an ubuntu problem
[14:39] <kriskropd> White_Cat: not really - but anyways, do you see it listed on 'iptables -L' ?
[14:39] <cristian_c> krok
[14:40] <cristian_c> kriskropd, ok
[14:40] <Engraves> Hey
[14:40] <Engraves> I'm having trouble powering off my laptop
[14:40] <Engraves> I'm dualbooting windows 8.1 and ubuntu and whenever I poweroff it reboots after 3 seconds of being off
[14:41] <GODDOG> Sorry i have a mistake about Channel k1l_ ubottu
[14:41] <White_Cat> kriskropd err looking still
[14:41] <kriskropd> engraves - check your BIOS settings and see if you have any kind of "start after power failure" or "network activty" setting - also in ubuntu, try shutting down from a termnal/command line with 'sudo shutdown -h now' and see if that keeps it from rebooting
[14:42] <Engraves> kriskropd: I tried all of those and no luck
[14:42] <yoritomo> bonjour
[14:42] <kriskropd> Engraves: so, please clarify, 'sudo shutdown -h now' DOES still lead to a reboot?
[14:42] <White_Cat> plenty of stuff from ufw
[14:42] <kriskropd> because if it DOES, this is DEFINITELY a BIOS issue
[14:43] <Engraves> http://blog.redbranch.net/2013/12/03/acer-aspire-reboots-on-ubuntu-shutdown/
[14:43] <Engraves> this is the only thing that worked
[14:43] <Engraves> but I can't reboot
[14:43] <Engraves> it just powers off now
[14:43] <White_Cat> kriskropd I dont think it is listed but there are a lot of lines form ufw
[14:44] <kriskropd> White_Cat: thats what grep is for 'iptables -L | grep 8069'
[14:44] <kriskropd> or, better
[14:45] <kriskropd> White_Cat: 'iptables -L | less' then in less hit forward slash '/' to begin a search and look for 8069
[14:45] <kriskropd> White_Cat: that was you can better detect which heading it is under
[14:45] <kriskropd> less is an output reader of sorts
[14:46] <White_Cat> grep did the trick, it is listed twice ocne for tcp once for udp for the firewall :/
[14:46] <dmek> what is the name of the unity theme?
[14:47] <kriskropd> Engraves: your artile implies NEVER allowing shutdown to do anythngbut completely halt, notice it has the line that I told you to give feedback on
[14:47] <kriskropd> article*
[14:48] <noddq2> Im trying to backup ubuntu 14.04 and aws S3 using duplicity.... but i got an error Attempt 1 failed. BackendException: No connection to backend...
[14:48] <noddq2> anyone encounter this?
[14:48] <kriskropd> White_Cat: and I assumed you've restarted the services involved? 'sudo service networking restart' and 'sudo service apache2 restart' (or whatever http you are using - should be necessary, but couldnt hurt)
[14:49] <Bishika> How would I tell if I mounted my ramdisk properly? I have everythin gworking but I'm not sure if it actually mounted correctly.
[14:49] <kriskropd> White_Cat: might need to run 'sudo service networking stop && sudo service networking start' if restart argument seems bugged -it has for me before
[14:49] <White_Cat> so no it isnt listed as a redirect
[14:49] <White_Cat> I did reboot the server but i'll try that now
[14:50] <White_Cat> it failed to stop :/
[14:50] <kriskropd> also I hate to do this, but I need to go - White_Cat you should probably try ##networking afterall then, iptables and firewalling isn't a common topic here
[14:50] <White_Cat> okay
[14:50] <White_Cat> thanks
[14:51] <Bishika> Figured it out dw ;3
[14:55] <n-iCe> hi
[14:55] <JoNaT> ih
[14:57] <execR> hey guys whats the best way to disable lightdm in the loging screen? set "text" on /etc/default/grub?
[14:57] <execR> so it will always get into text mode
[14:58] <aciremAukkinoS> execR: You can hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 to access a console login.
[14:58] <execR> aciremAukkinoS: i meant when pc posts
[15:01] <Quatroking> is it possible to use thumbnail view in a file opener instead of list view?
[15:01] <execR> yeah press Ctrl+1 or 2 or 3
[15:02] <Quatroking> not working
[15:02] <Quatroking> lemme make a quick screenshot
[15:02] <execR> what file manager are you using?
[15:03] <Quatroking> execR, http://i.imgur.com/OHbC21j.png
[15:03] <Quatroking> nautilus I think?
[15:04] <Quatroking> it's in list view and I don't see any way of changing that
[15:04] <execR> I am on text terminal sorry cant see it. Go to view should be an option to change view
[15:04] <Quatroking> there's no change view :)
[15:05] <Quatroking> how to describe this..
[15:05] <Quatroking> you know how in firefox, when you're using gmail/hotmail/something mail I don't know and you want to attach a file, it opens a file opener? That dialog
[15:05] <execR> in pcman is really easy i can imagine on nautilus too
[15:06] <Quatroking> it opens up a list view that auto-opens previews when you select images
[15:06] <execR> ok got it
[15:06] <execR> when you open nautilus normaly which mode is on ?
[15:06] <Quatroking> Icons
[15:07] <Quatroking> which is what I want in my file openers, pretty much
[15:07] <philinux> Quatroking;~ the screenshot shows what I get, royal pain
[15:08] <philinux> Quatroking;~ you have to highlight each file to see what it is
[15:08] <Quatroking> Yeah, and I want icons instead so I have a quick overview of my crappy pictures :)
[15:10] <adac> trying to install tomcat7 (apt-get install tomcat7) on 14.04 but getting: tomcat7 : Depends: tomcat7-common (>= 7.0.52-1) but it is not going to be installed
[15:10] <adac> any ideas?
[15:10] <execR> add tomcat7-common first?
[15:11] <execR> sudo apt-get install tomcat7-common tomcat7
[15:12] <adac> execR, then I get a bunch of other dependencies missing. Why is it not installing all dependencies by itself?
[15:12] <execR> did you try update and upgrade ?
[15:13] <zteam> adac, try this sudo apt-get install aptitude
[15:13] <Guest49085> hi, I have some problems with a new install on a new pc: The install took 2 hours and reading package lists is way too slow... I get faster speeds on my laptop. The install was done on a 120Gb ssd, 32Gb of ram, on an asus z97m-plus motherboard. Any ideas?
[15:13] <adac> execR, yes I did
[15:13] <zteam> adac, then sudo aptitude install tomcat7
[15:14] <zteam> adac, sometimes apittude is just smarter than apt-get
[15:14] <k1l_> adac: its most probably a PPA issue
[15:15] <k1l_> zteam: apt-get is fine. just not when PPAs or other 3rd party packages break the package system
[15:15] <asido> do you think switching to 64-bit kernel on 32-bit distro could work?
[15:15] <adac> k1l_, I'm doing it over docker: FROM ubuntu:trusty
[15:15] <adac> k1l_, maybe that is a problem
[15:15] <k1l_> asido: no. make a clean new install
[15:15] <tyrog> thanks
[15:15] <tyrog> Hi. What is the best office suite for linux in terms of compatibility with MS Office docx format? I know I could install Office with Wine or through a VM, but is there any other alternative (even if nonfree)?
[15:15] <execR> libreoffice is great
[15:15] <execR> except impress
[15:16] <asido> k1l_, can't really do that, but wondering why just booting into x64 kernel wouldn't work?
[15:16] <wpd> Does anybody know why dpkg -S would list the installed package twice?  e.g.$ dpkg -S arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++
[15:16] <wpd> g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf: /usr/share/man/man1/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++.1.gz
[15:16] <wpd> g++-4.8-arm-linux-gnueabihf: /usr/share/man/man1/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++-4.8.1.gz
[15:16] <wpd> g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf: /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++
[15:16] <wpd> g++-4.8-arm-linux-gnueabihf: /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++-4.8
[15:16] <k1l_> asido: mixing of libs and stuff. did not hear a working solution so far
[15:16] <asido> k1l_, I am not intending to install software from x64 repos, just the kernel
[15:17] <k1l_> wpd: one is the documenation
[15:17] <jokur> hey guys, I am trying to install this package: libgmp-dev_6.0.0+dfsg-6_amd64.deb  But the libgmpxx.so file is coming as a broken link. any idea why? And its installed as a local install. thanks :)
[15:17] <k1l_> *documentation
[15:17] <zteam> k1l_, well in some circumstances aptitude is just smarter than apt, but if he has some ppas enabled then he should just disable them first, (I didn't know about that-)
[15:17] <jokur> And i cant find the libgmpxx.so.3 file also in the install
[15:17] <wpd> It lists g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf twice when I run the command, why would that be?
[15:18] <k1l_> wpd: i answered
[15:18] <adac> execR, zteam, k1l_ I found out what was wrong. I added the universe packages like this which has broken it:
[15:18] <tyrog> execR: What do you use for presentations?
[15:18] <adac> RUN /bin/bash -l -c 'echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:18] <wpd> It also lists the documentation package, g++-4.8-arm-linux-gnueabihf twice.
[15:18] <zteam> adac, so if you have any kind of ppas or extra sources installed, try disableling them first like k1l_ said :-)
[15:19] <wpd> Never mind, I see it now.  Sorry.
[15:19] <execR> tyrog: i use "impressive" or powerpoint viewer
[15:19] <azizLIGHT> will 14.04 get qt 5.3
[15:20] <zteam> adac, you mean mixed sources from other distrubitions? that's really never a good idea
[15:20] <tyrog> execR: and for creating new presentations?
[15:20] <zteam> bbl time to eat
[15:20] <execR> unfortunately powerpoint or impress
[15:21] <tyrog> execR: What about the calligra one?
[15:21] <adac> zteam, it was a lefteover from 12.04. Deleted it and now its just working fine
[15:21] <execR> tyrog: is it a software?
[15:22] <tyrog> execR: yes
[15:22] <zteam> adac, okey, very well then :-)
[15:22] <execR> tyrog: never tried
[15:22] <execR> tyrog: did you?
[15:22] <adac> zteam, aye :) I'm happy :)
[15:22] <tyrog> execR: neither
[15:22] <zteam> adac, :--)
[15:22] <Quatroking> hey guys I need some help finding a game I played a lot back on 7.04
[15:23] <execR> tyrog: let us knwo :)
[15:23] <Quatroking> it was a platformer with basic graphics, and you played a smiley with a bandana
[15:23] <execR> know*
[15:23] <Quatroking> basically you shot baddies to bits and saved hostages here and there AFAIK
[15:23] <Quatroking> 2d platformer
[15:23] <Quatroking> I wish to play it again but I have no idea what it was called
[15:24] <tyrog> execR: Is OpenOffice much different from LibreOffice?
[15:25] <execR> tyrog: not much, i find libreoffice more compatible with docx
[15:26] <azizLIGHT> if i got a package from apt-get and its a old version, and i go and install a newer version from seomwhere else, hwo does ubuntu know which version to use? do both exist simultaneously or does the old one get deleted?
[15:27] <n-iCe> azizLIGHT: it just upgrades
[15:27] <aciremAukkinoS> azizLIGHT: Newer versions are installed over older versions.
[15:27] <azizLIGHT> so the old one from apt-get gets deleted, and replaced by the newer one from wherever i got it from
[15:28] <azizLIGHT> what happens if the apt-get one gets updated more than the one i have installed from 3rd party
[15:28] <azizLIGHT> and what would happen if i installed the newer apt-get one over the 3rd party one
[15:28] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: if you install something manually from .deb package it wont get updates since apt-get doesnt know its there
[15:29] <azizLIGHT> im using a .run file
[15:29] <azizLIGHT> not a deb
[15:29] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: and apt-get will install the highest versioning number. so if the version number is broken on the PPA (for example) that will be never updated if apt thinks its still higher than the one from the ubuntu repo
[15:29] <azizLIGHT> is that more complicated
[15:29] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: that is even worse
[15:30] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: what program is it?
[15:30] <azizLIGHT> tell me why please
[15:30] <azizLIGHT> it is qt
[15:30] <azizLIGHT> 14.04 has qt 5.2.1 and a program i have is complaining it needs qt 5.3 or more
[15:30] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: because you dont get the update stuff from the online package system and you dont get the install/remove service from the clinetside package system
[15:31] <azizLIGHT> the only way i see it is to upgrade with a .run file on qt site. but am concerned about breaking package management and auto upgrading etc
[15:31] <k1l_> *clientside
[15:31] <k1l_> yes ofcourse you are breaking that with the .run.
[15:31] <azizLIGHT> ohhhh
[15:31] <azizLIGHT> why didnt they make a deb at least
[15:32] <azizLIGHT> :/
[15:32] <k1l_> you should see if there is a PPA for your program in the first place, that is already made working with ubuntu
[15:32] <azizLIGHT> ohhhh good idea
[15:33] <azizLIGHT> whats the difference between a ppa and adding a source into /etc/apt/sources.list though
[15:33] <azizLIGHT> they do the same thing, no?
[15:33] <k1l_> dont add a source into sources.list. that is deprecated on ubuntu. we got /etc/apt/sources.list.d for that now
[15:34] <k1l_> !ppa | azizLIGHT
[15:34] <azizLIGHT> yeah but ym question remains, whats the diff between those two. dont they do the same thing
[15:34] <Heliarc> !addppa
[15:34] <azizLIGHT> so its just simpler...? thats it?
[15:35] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: no
[15:35] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: there are programs to handle PPAs and remove the easily.
[15:35] <k1l_> the whole setup is based on not mixing official ubuntu sources and 3rd party stuff
[15:35] <azizLIGHT> ah, so its to provide a sense of separation
[15:36] <k1l_> and the upgrader will cancel PPAs on upgrade not to ruin ubuntu on upgrade
[15:36] <azizLIGHT> so most people here only have the main ubuntu official stuff in their apt sources list
[15:36] <k1l_> so there is a lot difference in handling. and that is because 3rd party stuff breaks ubuntu all the time and people just blame ubuntu instead of that crappy 3rd party stuff
[15:37] <azizLIGHT> k1l_: cancel ppa? does that mean it will remove the ppa sources and purge the packages from them before doing the upgrade to new version?
[15:37] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: yes. that is the ubuntu way.
[15:37] <azizLIGHT> so if i upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 all my ppa software will vanish
[15:38] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: no. it will disable them. to try to get the cleanest upgrade possible (with the ubuntu official repos and in best case it will overwrite the PPA crap installed anyway)
[15:38] <azizLIGHT> i see
[15:38] <azizLIGHT> i like this
[15:39] <k1l_> if you want to get rid of a PPA use ppa-purge
[15:39] <azizLIGHT> i use y-ppa-manager for that :)
[15:39] <k1l_> but that only works if you did not put it into the official sources.list
[15:39] <happyraver1958> Hi everybody, I got a question about BIND9
[15:39] <azizLIGHT> mm no i havent touched anything in there, just wondering how it all works
[15:40] <happyraver1958> is there a DNS / BIND9 expert somewhere?  I got a big problem with views
[15:40] <azizLIGHT> k1l_: thanks for explaining it to me
[15:40] <happyraver1958> as soon as I start to use views my DNS server stops responding to queries altogether
[15:41] <happyraver1958> anybody has had that problem before?
[15:41] <multitaskin_dude> HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
[15:41] <happyraver1958> Ubuntu 14.04 and 12.04 do it alike
[15:41] <multitaskin_dude> happyraver1958: TRY DEBIAN
[15:42] <happyraver1958> Ubuntu has become the standard here, I'd like not to break the standard if I can avoid it
[15:42] <azizLIGHT> i think he was trolling you
[15:42] <happyraver1958> I've tried restarting the service and I've tried so many things
[15:42] <happyraver1958> yeah azizLIGHT, that's what it looks like
[15:43] <happyraver1958> as soon as I start up the server with a configuration file with a view, the server won't respond to queries
[15:43] <happyraver1958> has anybody had that problem before?
[15:45] <azizLIGHT> k1l_: one last question about packages. if qt is 5.2.1 on 14.04 LTS, can we expect version upgrades for 14.04 or will they only do security fixes? for example, can i expect qt 5.3 or more on 14.04 LTS eventually? or does it mean i must upgrade to 14.10 and get what new package versions they have in 14.10, if any
[15:45] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: only security and bug patches for most packages
[15:46] <azizLIGHT> i see. so i should either upgrade to 14.10 and see their packages. or find a ppa for 14.04
[15:46] <jimmy51v_> i've got an application i'm trying to run but it's not finding libxml2.so.  ldd shows 'not found', but libxml2 is installed.  i even checked and have a symlink made:  sudo ln --symbolic /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> !find libxml2.so
[15:46] <k1l_> yes
[15:46] <sacarlson> azizLIGHT: many times if they don't upgrade them you can get backports from ppa
[15:47] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: i've got libxml2 installed for sure.
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: gimme a sec
[15:47] <azizLIGHT> ah
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: what is the output of:   cat /etc/issue
[15:48] <azizLIGHT> i think someone will make a ppa for qt, because it seems like a lot of things use that. and 5.3 seems like a major feature addition
[15:48] <d4rkt1m3s> is it safe to install kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu? and if so, does that install the new plasma 5?
[15:48] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libxml2.so&mode=exactfilename&suite=trusty&arch=any
[15:49] <k1l_> d4rkt1m3s: it is safe. but it will not install plasma5 iirc
[15:49] <d4rkt1m3s> crap
[15:49] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: same issue.
[15:49] <sacarlson> azizLIGHT: or they will port the apps that run on qt new to run on the older qt
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: that gives the file you need, no?
[15:49] <d4rkt1m3s> how does one install plasma 5
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[15:50] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: yeah... the file is there
[15:50] <jimmy51v_> but the application still doesn't see it
[15:50] <k1l_> d4rkt1m3s: http://askubuntu.com/questions/492599/how-to-install-and-test-kde-plasma-5-on-ubuntu-14-04
[15:50] <d4rkt1m3s> ActionParsnip: there is no issue.
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: its a file, what does the output read
[15:50] <k1l_> d4rkt1m3s: but its a testing release. so be aware of issues
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: run the command, what is output?
[15:51] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: ldd shows...     libxml2.so.2 => not found
[15:51] <d4rkt1m3s> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: easy stuff huh
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: http://askubuntu.com/questions/492599/how-to-install-and-test-kde-plasma-5-on-ubuntu-14-04
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> d4rkt1m3s: as usual with ALL PPAs. We don't support them here and it is uysed at your own risk
[15:52] <jimmy51v_> !ldconfig
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> *used
[15:52] <d4rkt1m3s> I understand.
[15:53] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip: hmmmmmmmmm...     installed libxml2:i386 and it's working
[15:53] <jimmy51v_> or appears to be
[15:53] <jimmy51v_> pretty stupid for a 64 bit version to require 32 bit libs.
[15:55] <happyraver1958> I found something in this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=919160&highlight=BIND9+queries+configured+views
[15:56] <happyraver1958> but my problem seems a little depeer
[15:56] <happyraver1958> again, has anybody experienced a problem with BIND9 with views configuration?
[15:57] <pbx> the Backups app is telling me "Your backup appears to be corrupted.  You should delete the backup and try again."  my backup dir has 30-40 dejadup tarballs in it.  delete *what*?
[15:57] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh you want to have bind9 resolve on your local lan?
[15:57] <jimmy51v_> ok... i installed some :i386 versions of packages and now apt is messed up;   http://pastebin.ca/2868554
[15:58] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I'm not sure what you mean views config.  I've done local zones
[15:58] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: yes, I need my BIND9 to resolve locally and on the Internet
[15:58] <jhutchins> happyraver1958: Ditch the control panel and learn to configure bind correctly.
[15:59] <happyraver1958> jhutchins: I'm not using the control panel
[15:59] <happyraver1958> I'm trying to configure views based on a configuration that works on a Fedora 14 server
[15:59] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I just have two servers.  one for wan and one for local.
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> jimmy51v_: try:  sudo apt-get -f install
[15:59] <happyraver1958> The Fedora 14 server works, but it needs to be upgraded to the standard Ubuntu 14.04
[16:00] <jimmy51v_> ActionParsnip:  0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 90 not upgraded.
[16:00] <jhutchins> happyraver1958: How can views have anything to do with DNS?
[16:00] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: We're using one server for both inside and outside networks, that's what views are for
[16:00] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: my local subnet is served by my local bind9.  I have tried in the past to point my site to my local bind9 but I have a dynamic ip that changes
[16:01] <jhutchins> sacarlson: You need an external DNS for that, something like dyndns.
[16:01] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: IC I'll have to look up views then to see how that could be used,  haveing two works fine for me
[16:01] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: we're lucky to have static IP addresses, I've had that challenged and I used DYNDNS for that
[16:01] <happyraver1958> it works pretty good for my customers
[16:02] <sacarlson> jhutchins: yes I still have that no-ip
[16:03] <sacarlson> jhutchins: but I just have my outside wan dns serve them and they can still see the same web address that my local apache2 serves my local network
[16:03] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: the problem I'm having is that it won't respond to DNS queries once I make the change in the configuration files to add views
[16:03] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: there are no error messages in the logs, my daemon is running fine, everything is ok in the server
[16:04] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but I don't know what the server is doing with the queries that are being sent
[16:04] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: so what's stoping you from using my method with two dns instead of the views method?
[16:04] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I even ran a wireshark and it looks like my workstation just sends the queries out and gets no response from the server whatsoever
[16:04] <ildefonso> happyraver1958, I would say the same thing, just use two DNS servers.  I can't remember when was the last time I tried to create a single DNS server for both internal and external addresses.
[16:05] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ssh into your outside point and try dig @youlocaldns
[16:05] <ildefonso> I know it is possible, but I just can't remember right now.
[16:05] <happyraver1958> I'm kind of embarrassed because there is a server right now running fine with views and I can't get mine to work
[16:06] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: so what kind of a connection is it to wan?  adsl?
[16:06] <happyraver1958> plus I'm not sure my boss will want to run two servers for DNS instead of just one
[16:06] <happyraver1958> we have four T1's and we're in a virtual environment
[16:06] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: there are free dns on wan you can use,  it cost nothing
[16:06] <ildefonso> happyraver1958, use lxc :P (virtualize)
[16:07] <happyraver1958> problem is we keep making updates to our DNS server records constantly
[16:07] <ildefonso> and yes, I know it is possible, and I could bet it is a simple detail... but it takes time to sort out that things.
[16:07] <happyraver1958> that's why we have our own DNS server facing out
[16:07] <ildefonso> and, in the end, you have more security if you use two DNS servers.
[16:08] <happyraver1958> ildefonso: I agree, there must be something I'm missing somewhere but I just can't pin-point what it is
[16:08] <gennaro> salve
[16:08] <happyraver1958> like I said, the Fedora 14 server works fine as an inside and outside DNS server
[16:08] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: well with t1 an I would assume a static ip I think I would continue to try to figure out your views method.  I'll take a look at it
[16:08] <ildefonso> happyraver1958, I dropped that solution in the end, because of possible security issues, so, I ended up using two DNS servers.
[16:08] <happyraver1958> and it has a views configuration
[16:08] <ildefonso> but of course, not two physical servers.
[16:08] <adac> Does someon know where the tomcat7 executable is located
[16:09] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: what side fails the wan side of the local side or both?
[16:09] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: both! my DNS server just won't respond to any query coming from anywhere
[16:09] <ildefonso> happyraver1958, if I were you, I would just setup an small lxc VM, and put the external DNS there.
[16:09] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok did you ever have it working on eather side?
[16:10] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: yes, as soon as I remove the views configuration, it works great!
[16:10] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh ok did you pastebin your configs for us to see then?
[16:10] <gennaro> salve a tutti
[16:10] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but it only works with no views configuration inside
[16:11] <k1l_> !it | gennaro

[16:35] <Shasirax> Hello, I'm having some problems with my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS install. Every apt-get command gives "Errors were encountered while processing:  brltty". Anyone know any solution?
[16:36] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: well it must be missing somethings as I search for "view" it's not there
[16:37] <freijon> Shasirax: did you apt-get update ?
[16:38] <Shasirax> freijon: Yes, of course :) I've also tried rebooting, -f install and every other solution I can find online... which wasn't that much
[16:38] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: this is my named.conf file  http://pastebin.com/uXDkxZWy
[16:38] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok
[16:43] <Shasirax> This is what happens from a regular sudo apt-get upgrade (after update). http://pastebin.com/LFZPnVNg
[16:44] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I just note a few things one bing file "internal/192.168.150"  but maybe that still works?
[16:45] <k1l_> Shasirax: run a apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:45] <freijon> Shasirax: can you reinstall brltty?
[16:45] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: that's for reverse lookup
[16:46] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: and my server does not respond to any queries at all
[16:46] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: so it doesn't respond to reverse lookups either
[16:46] <freijon> Shasirax: try this: "sudo apt-get install initscripts"
[16:46] <Shasirax> k1l_: Running
[16:46] <k1l_> Shasirax: and are you using brltty at all?
[16:47] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: even though reverse lookups are configured as well
[16:47] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but my whole server seems to go down as soon as I use views
[16:47] <Shasirax> freijon: Will try as soon as the first command is done, it wanted to download 500 mb (Y)
[16:47] <jhutchins> happyraver1958: Is there some documentation you're using for views?
[16:47] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but named is up and going, there are no errors in the logs, all the domains are loaded correctly, everything seems fine, but the server won't respond to any queries
[16:48] <Shasirax> k1l_: I don't think so, I'm purely using Ubuntu to host a CS server (scripted in some way) so maybe it was a dependency for that.
[16:48] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I mean the relitive file location internal/192.168.150
[16:48] <happyraver1958> jhutchins: My only source for views as of right now is a few searches on the internet and the current Fedora 14 server, the old server that is currently working with views
[16:49] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh ya if it didn't find the file then the logs would have indicated that so that must be ok
[16:49] <jhutchins> happyraver1958: A link would be helpful.
[16:49] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: oh yeah, it exists, it loads in the configuration, it runs fine
[16:50] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: and that file is the other pastebin you sent?
[16:50] <happyraver1958> jhutchins: a link to what? my current DNS server? my new one is not up on the internet yet
[16:50] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: no, I didn't paste my reverse lookup files because I think they're irrelevant to the issue
[16:51] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok so if you just comment this line match-clients  {  192.168.0.0/16;  127.0.0.1;  };  it works?
[16:52] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: let me check
[16:53] <Shasirax> k1l_: This command is taking forever to execute...
[16:53] <k1l_> Shasirax: yes, you had a lot of updates kept back due to not running full updates
[16:54] <k1l_> Shasirax: maybe that fixes the issue already
[16:54] <k1l_> Shasirax: but that is not a server, is it? there is too much gui stuff related
[16:54] <Shasirax> k1l_: Hopefully it will, I had some problems installing updates yesterday (from this brltty thingy...)
[16:54] <Airbander> Hi guys
[16:55] <Airbander> i just lost the icon of connexion from my pannel plz help me to bring it back and thanks
[16:55] <Shasirax> k1l_: I installed ubuntu yesterday so it's just the regular first boot updates I think
[16:55] <Airbander> i think yes
[16:55] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: opps might have to replace it with match-clients { any; };
[16:56] <Shasirax> k1l_: libreoffice and stuff like that
[16:56] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: just to see if it works any way
[16:56] <perennial> hello there! is there a way to check the state of ram as of the moment without running memtest. I mean whether it is ok or broken? the reason is that gimp gives an error every now and then that memory could not be allocated, that it was unable to fork..
[16:57] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: won't that make it get confused with the external configuration?
[16:57] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: external has match any
[16:57] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but I'll try anyway :)
[16:58] <yabu2> Hi, anybody can help for iptables NAT
[16:58] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I'm not sure but since it seems to put out nothing at all it seems nether is working
[16:58] <perennial> and it works now when I restarted the computer
[16:58] <andlabs> okay really
[16:58] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh and I guess if the first works then it won't continue?
[16:59] <andlabs> is there a way I can turn OFF gnome-keyring integration with git?
[16:59] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: Right now I just set them both up to respond to any client on internal and external
[16:59] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I'll keep you posted
[16:59] <npm> Odd error updating 14.04.1LTS: "W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/i18n/Translation-en  Hash Sum mismatch" ---> ???
[17:00] <npm> tried again, error gone
[17:00] <yabu2> Hello, i'm just looking for NAT internal to external vice versa can you help
[17:00] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: did not work  :(
[17:01] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I would assume if it works at all it will only server internal,  oh didn't work
[17:01] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: same result, no response from the server, not even locally in its own CLI
[17:01] <andlabs> ...and SSH In general?
[17:01] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: you use dig to test it?
[17:02] <happyraver1958> I used both nslookup and dig
[17:02] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I used both nslookup and dig
[17:03] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok well I'm not sure I can simulate something here to see what I can learn
[17:03] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: just follow the instructions in the tutorial you sent me
[17:03] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: it happened to me at home too, my DNS server at home did the same thing
[17:04] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: with an entirely different configuration and in a test environment of course, but the result is the same
[17:04] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: what does the working version look like were at least local works?
[17:04] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: that's why I think it's either a bug that is triggered when I miss something in the configuration
[17:05] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: named.conf would not have any views in it, just the configuration for regular name resolution
[17:06] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: if you can, set up an Ubuntu 14.04 server, clean install with just DNS server on it
[17:06] <l0rdn1x> why is chromium called chromium-bsu ?
[17:06] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: then configure it using the tutorial you sent me
[17:06] <k1l_> !info chromium
[17:06] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: that's what I did at home and it didn't work, it did the same thing it's doing here at the office
[17:06] <qengho> !info chromium-browser
[17:06] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: the difference I see is you not having acl internals {....}  so you or I could try that
[17:07] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I've been working on it for weeks now and I still can't figure out why it does that, but only with views, as soon as you remove the views from the configuration it works fine
[17:07] <k1l_> !info chromium-bsu | l0rdn1x
[17:07] <l0rdn1x> Thanks k1l_
[17:07] <andlabs> never mind
[17:08] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I just tried that this minute because I haven't tried it before
[17:08] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: with the same results as well  :(
[17:08] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: if I at least had an error message that would give me a clue ...
[17:10] <joshka> can someone help me with a custom init service? I'm having some trouble.
[17:10] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: another difference is they never used relitive file name full path names were used
[17:11] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: but you must have also used relitive path in the none view version
[17:12] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I tried using relative paths and I got error messages in the logs saying that they couldn't find "internal/domain-name.com"
[17:12] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: so I had to use absolute paths to make my domains load
[17:13] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh so what I have is not what your running then?  it has relitive files
[17:14] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: no dude, it won't work at all on any case without absolute paths
[17:15] <currykid94> \topic
[17:15] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: when I configured it without views I still had to use absolute paths, otherwise BIND won't load the daemon
[17:15] <Airbander> Hi guys i need help plz
[17:15] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: but the pastebin I have is showing them so if I was to simulate this it also won't work
[17:15] <Airbander> how bring back the network icon in the panel barre
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> Airbander: run:  nm-applet
[17:15] <Airbander> thanks
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> Airbander: you dont need the icon there to connect to networks, its just a GUI for the network-manager service
[17:16] <Airbander> i'm using xubuntu
[17:16] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: oh your not getting error because it never gets to the point it needs the file it is never true to match
[17:17] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: you know what, I gave you the previous revision of the configuration files, sorry, my bad  :(
[17:17] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: the new revision has absolute paths
[17:18] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok so at least I was right about something ha ha
[17:18] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: yes, you were!
[17:18] <currykid94> what is the channel topic
[17:18] <Airbander> ActionParsnip he said that i need to install one of this packages *network-manager-gnome and * mythhuntu-diskless-client
[17:19] <currykid94> \topic
[17:19] <BluesKaj> !topic
[17:20] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I read back but still didn't see you say you tried this acl internals {....}  instead of your present match-clients  {  192.168.0.0/16;  127.0.0.1;  };
[17:21] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: with  match-clients { internals; };
[17:21] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: yeah, I just tried it, just a few minutes ago
[17:21] <nooby_>  /topic
[17:22] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: that's why you don't see it in the current pastebins
[17:22] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: let me send you the updated version of the configuration files
[17:22] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I would only assume that  match-clients  {  192.168.0.0/16;  127.0.0.1;  };  never becomes true  but that would also mean that match-clients  {  any: } also never becomes true
[17:23] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: what ip address is it that you are testing it from?
[17:23] <mikael> How do I enable the ethernet connection?
[17:24] <sacarlson> mikael: normaly you can click on the network icon
[17:24] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: we have two /24 IP networks involved here, 150 and 151 (I just changed the numbers in the configuration files for privacy, but who cares now...)
[17:24] <mikael> sacarlson: It's greyed out
[17:25] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I'm sending queries to the DNS server from both IP networks, and it won't respond to either one, regardless of using ACLs or directly putting it into match-clients { }
[17:25] <sacarlson> mikael: can you maybe right click it?
[17:25] <mikael> sacarlson: nothing happens
[17:26] <sacarlson> mikael: maybe your user doesn't have privliges for network?
[17:26] <mikael> sacarlson: at the network?
[17:27] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: well I would think I could simulate it in virtualbox.  is that how you tested it at home?
[17:27] <mikael> sacarlson: Do you know how I fix my wifi falling out? I've tried something I googled, but it stills fall out from time to time
[17:27] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: yup, that's exactly how I tested it at home.  We have vmware at the office, but I used virtualbox at home with the same results: As soon as you turn on views, everything goes south
[17:29] <mikael> Anyone knows have i fix my wifi connection? It keeps falling out!
[17:29] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok I will just have to prove you wrong otherwise those notes they gave us are incorrect
[17:30] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: nothing would make me happier than you proving me wrong
[17:30] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: but should I stay on the IRC while you try it or should I give you my e-mail address?
[17:30] <sacarlson> mikael: oh grayed out maybe network-manager isn't running  try sudo ps -A | grep network-manager
[17:32] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: I remain monitoring irc 24/7 if it's down it's do to my ISP being down
[17:32] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: probly best to pm as this is not really a ubuntu isue
[17:32] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Hows it going ubuntu world?
[17:33] <Airbander> very Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
[17:33] <Airbander> you ?
[17:33] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Goooooooooooooooood!  Bout to pop 14.04 onto my transformer pad
[17:33] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: well then, I do look forward to looking at the results of your experiment, should we exchange contact info?
[17:33] <RaMcHiP-Mobile> Wanna dual boot win8 and 14.04
[17:34] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: it does look like an ubuntu issue, because other servers seem to work just fine
[17:35] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ok so maybe it's a ubuntu bug isue,  I sent you my skype nick on pm
[17:35] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: do you still want the pastebin of my current configuration files?
[17:35] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: ya sure
[17:36] <raschy> so is there anyone here that would like to help me fix some graphics driver issues?
[17:37] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I guess I'm getting skype now, I'll be in touch, let me just finish the pastebin and I'll be out
[17:38] <mikael> sacarlson: it says "wrong. Try again. "
[17:38] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: wrong skype?  it looks like I spelled it correctly
[17:39] <sacarlson> mikael: oh the ps -A | grep network  ;  didn't work?
[17:39] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: I haven't tried it yet, I don't have skype on this computer, I have to install it
[17:40] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: no I got you and mikael confused
[17:40] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: well, I did receive your skype ID
[17:41] <mikael> sacarlson: No, as you see it only said that it was wrong
[17:41] <sacarlson> happyraver1958: that's ok that only if you fail to see me here or at #mini-isp  or #multicoin or ....
[17:42] <happyraver1958> sacarlson: This is my latest BIND configuration: http://pastebin.com/ZtTtjZvM
[17:42] <sacarlson> mikael: did you cut an paist it?  maybe it's getting too late for me if I can't get that right
[17:42] <Airbander> Hi guys
[17:42] <mikael> sacarlson: it was my password that was wrong :-) but nothing happened anyway :-S
[17:44] <mikael> sacarlson: I did copy paste. It just changed line. No comment or reaction
[17:44] <Airbander> i found it ( about the network icon in panel barre ) you just clic on add New items and chose Indicator Plugin
[17:44] <Airbander> thanks for help and thanks
[17:44] <mikael> sacarlson: and still grey
[17:45] <sacarlson> mikael: oh just changed lines that mean that network-manager is NOT running
[17:46] <sacarlson> mikael: so you should be able to sudo services network-manager restart
[17:46] <happyraver1958> have a great day everybody!
[17:46] <Airbander> thanks you too
[17:59] <fahadash> Hey
[18:00] <fahadash> I forgot the password of my ubuntu installation, what is the most painless way to recover ?
[18:01] <kevindf> Isn't Ubuntu 12.04 pretty vulnerable?
[18:01] <bubbasaures> !password
[18:01] <kevindf> desktop version
[18:01] <bubbasaures> fahadash, ^^^^^^^^^^^
[18:02] <jhutchins> kevindf: 12.04 has LTS.
[18:02] <fahadash> Let me read that. Thanks
[18:02] <kevindf> jhutchins Ah ok, does the server version has that also?
[18:03] <fahadash> My Ubuntu installation is not fresh, and not very old either. I have some data though. Should I use Standard, or the Other way ?
[18:03] <bubbasaures> kevindf, Yes very vulnerable, if you drop the computer in water it stops working.
[18:03] <gucprez> alguien que hable espanol
[18:04] <gucprez> tengo una pregunta
[18:04] <kevindf> oh that doesn't sound good
[18:04] <Pici> !es | gucprez
[18:05] <s4my_> guys my computer just shutdown suddenly (overheating) and i was downloading a torrent file who was like 60% done in the default ubuntu torrent client transmission and now it's restarting the download from scrach is there a way to resume the download or am FUCKING done too ?
[18:05] <s4my_> help plz
[18:06] <tdannecy> s4my_: It should have resumed the download automatically.
[18:06] <s4my_> tdannecy, no it actually restarted from the beginnig
[18:06] <OerHeks> s4my_, mind your languiage please, and yes, if the torrent does not resume, bad luck
[18:06] <knightfelt> s4my_: You can sometimes force a re check of the torrent if you can point it to where the download was being saved. Then it will resume where it left off
[18:06] <basil1x> It might've skipped directories.
[18:06] <basil1x> Did you put it somewhere besides the default directory?
[18:07] <s4my_> knightfelt, how do i do that plz and sorry for my language am just so frustrated
[18:07] <fahadash> I am on VM, Shift key does not work on Grub :(
[18:07] <tdannecy> s4my_: You should probably join the #transmission IRC channel. They should be able to help better than we can.
[18:08] <bubbasaures> fahadash, Shift is to see grub, and it works in my virtualbox.
[18:08] <knightfelt> s4my_: https://www.transmissionbt.com/help/gtk/2.7x/html/check.html
[18:09] <bubbasaures> fahadash, Worst case you can boot a live ubuntu and back up what you need in a vm
[18:09] <mikael> sacarlson: Did you give me an answer? I lost my wifi connection...again :-/
[18:10] <shin> s4my_: try qbittorrent
[18:10] <Shaan> hey guys do i need to set seperate iptables rules for ipv6?
[18:11] <s4my_> knightfelt, when i login and started transmission it restarted the download so i paused it now when i do the verfication it just doesn't do sh** it continues on downloading from 0
[18:12] <knightfelt> s4my_: where you downloading to a external drive or your local drive?
[18:12] <s4my_> knightfelt, to my desktop
[18:12] <s4my_> knightfelt, local drive
[18:13] <shin> s4my_: unless you moved or deleted the file, it should resume the download
[18:13] <knightfelt> s4my_: I would go over to #transmission channel and ask them there. They would be able to give expert advice
[18:13] <shin> s4my_: oh, or change perms
[18:13] <s4my_> knightfelt, i didn't do anything myself but i think it did delete it on it's own
[18:14] <knightfelt> s4my_: Transmission wouldn't do that without asking first
[18:14] <s4my_> knightfelt, on the transmission channel no one is talking
[18:14] <s4my_> shin, what do you mean plz
[18:14] <knightfelt> on your desktop, what is the size of the file?
[18:14] <s4my_> knightfelt, it's 1.52Gb
[18:15] <knightfelt> s4my_: I would try removing the torrent from transmission, making sure *not to delete local data* only the torrent.
[18:15] <Surendil> s4my_: i mean, you accidentally gave root pems to file
[18:15] <knightfelt> Then readding it in a paused state making sure the download directory is the same as the one you were using.
[18:15] <knightfelt> s4my_: then do a local recheck of data
[18:16] <knightfelt> s4my_: If that doesn't restart you back where you left off, I can't help much more.
[18:16] <s4my_> Surendil, yeah i did when
[18:16] <Surendil> s4my_: never really like transmission either, take a look at qbittorrent
[18:17] <Surendil> s4my_: if file have root access, transmission wont be able to write on file, unless you run transmission as root
[18:17] <basil1x> Or Deluge.
[18:17] <basil1x> Nice compromise, Deluge.
[18:17] <OerHeks> s4my_, contact the torrentseeder :-D
[18:17] <s4my_> Surendil, yeah before i even finish the download i installed qbittorrent but i kind was in the middle of downloading the file
[18:18] <knightfelt> Surendil: utorrent has a decent linux torrent client as well. It's web based which is nice.
[18:18] <Surendil> s4my_: if you poing the torrent to the same download folder, it will resume, not start over
[18:18] <Surendil> *point
[18:25] <s4my_> Surendil, when i started the download i started it from the terminal with sudo and when i log on and started transmission it automatically started from scratch
[18:26] <OerHeks> start again as sudo, maybe the root-torrent still exists
[18:26] <Surendil> s4my_: there's your problem
[18:27] <Surendil> like i said before, first file have roots perms, only root can keep writing the file
[18:27] <s4my_> Surendil, yeah i know but HOW TO FIX IT i started it in sudo to allow it to run a bash script to shut down my laptop when the dowloading is done
[18:28] <Surendil> chown youruser.youruser /path/to/file
[18:28] <yoritomo> hello
[18:29] <Surendil> s4my_: this will change back perms to user an be able to run transmission as normal user
[18:29] <yoritomo> is it xorg caring about the keyboard ? because when i restart x nothing changes to my keyboard
[18:30] <yoritomo> i have the bug of PS keyboards when going out from sleeping mode
[18:30] <yoritomo> some keys are death , arrows, CTRL Alt, keypad ...
[18:30] <yoritomo> needs always to restart completely the computer
[18:31] <s4my_> Surendil, you mean i have just to essue this command chown s4my.s4my Desktop/file
[18:32] <s4my_> Surendil, and by the way it's magnetic link
[18:32] <Surendil> s4my_: sudo chown s4my.s4my /home/s4my/Desktop/file
[18:33] <Surendil> and then be sure to always run preffered app as normal user
[18:34] <mikael> can anyone tell me what to do with my wifi connection? It drops out all the time.
[18:34] <s4my_> Surendil, OMG that acually worked just when i was about to give up I LOVE MAN I FREAKING LOVE YOU  you saved my life how can i repay you my friend
[18:34] <Surendil> if you open transmission ass root again, it will change perms over and over
[18:35] <Surendil> s4my_: hahaha, don't worry
[18:35] <Surendil> i'm glad it worked
[18:36] <azizLIGHT> does gnome 3 use nautilus
[18:36] <s4my_> Surendil, peopel like you are what we need here you just solved my problem i like people like you cuz you didn't just send me to #transmission and said F**** off like some would do
[18:37] <yoritomo> mikael when working, your connection is normal speed or not ?
[18:37] <k1l_> azizLIGHT: nautilus is the filemanager developmed by gnome. so guess :)
[18:37] <Surendil> s4my_: lot of people like me in here =)
[18:38] <s4my_> Surendil, yeah yeah if you say so cuz i just got you here helping me on your own i'll do the same to someone some day to return the favor GIVING BACH to the comunity
[18:39] <s4my_> Surendil, i just gave you a shout out in the transmission channel they just asked me what's the problem after like a 30 min from me asking the question
[18:40] <Surendil> s4my_: i could not ask for anything better!
[18:41] <freijon> you could ask for a cookie
[18:42] <freijon> :P
[18:42] <mikael> yoritomo: It's normal most of the time. It drops out every 5- 10 minutts.
[18:42] <s4my_> Surendil, well thanks again dude see you later mabe ! in the future
[18:44] <yoritomo> mikael, just the wiki connexion disconnecting or the whole network server crashing ?
[18:45] <OerHeks> mikael, what wifi adapter?
[18:45] <mikael> yoritomo: I don't know about the ethernet... i'm not able to use it. It's disabled.
[18:45] <OerHeks> random guessing is useless
[18:45] <ooko0> Whats the best and cheapest lamp stack hosting?
[18:45] <ooko0> dreamhost?
[18:45] <OerHeks> ooko0, wrong channel for that
[18:46] <ooko0> what channel should I be in?
[18:47] <mikael> OerHeks: lshw says vendor: Qualcomm Atheros
[18:47] <yoritomo> no model number ?
[18:48] <mikael> OerHeks: That was ethernet... wifi is Centrino Wireless from Intel
[18:48] <OerHeks> lspci or lsusb give you more info, look for the 8 digit hex ID number
[18:57] <jhutchins> lspci -nn
[18:58] <Ahmuck> http://pastebin.com/epF0v5QM - Odd apt error.
[18:58] <mikael> OerHeks: what number?
[18:58] <Ahmuck> E: GPG error: http://archive.canonical.com utopic InRelease: Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NODATA' (does the network require authentication?)
[18:58] <Ahmuck> really awkward, considering that the defaults are listed.
[19:00] <fahadash> I am trying to recover my lost password. I am on the LostPassword page. I do not know how to get the grub prompt, I am tapping on ESC and SHIFT, but boot proceeds through
[19:01] <squinty> mikael:  you may find it easier to install   inxi (system details python script)  and then issue the following command in a terminal.   inxi -Nnx    that will show you details pertaining to your nic/wireless settings
[19:01] <Goldwing> Ahmuck : you are not by any chance behind a proxy?
[19:01] <Ahmuck> not unless it's something new with my ISP
[19:02] <Ahmuck> http://askubuntu.com/questions/477906/cant-update-my-system-due-to-gpg-error-clearsigned-file-isnt-valid-got-nodat - going to try this
[19:02] <Goldwing> Ahmuck : ok
[19:02] <squinty> mikael:  you can install inxi by typing    sudo apt-get install inxi   see https://code.google.com/p/inxi/  for other inxi options
[19:03] <Ahmuck> Goldwing: i might try an outside proxy.  this would let me know if it was a local proxy problem, no?
[19:03] <squinty> fahadash:  you need to hold the relevant key down immediately after the initial boot splash has finished displaying
[19:04] <Ahmuck> Goldwing: fixed - Used Bleachbit and apt-get clean
[19:04] <fahadash> squinty, Initial boot splash is the one that says "Ubuntu" in a purple background with 6 dots animating ? And I have to *wait* for it to go away ?
[19:05] <squinty> fahadash: no
[19:05] <bubbasaures> with a vm, tapping the shift quickly from powering on is the best result
[19:05] <bubbasaures> repeatedly
[19:05] <squinty> fahadash:  when you turn the computer on the manufacturer's splash will be displayed..hold key after that
[19:06] <fahadash> let me try
[19:06] <dna113p> In xubuntu, I'm getting an error when trying to open several programs like firefox or gvim. Could not create gnome accelerators directory `/home/dj/.gnome2/accels': Permission denied
[19:06] <dna113p> and a bunch of Glib-Gobject-WARNINGs
[19:06] <dna113p> and the programs won't open
[19:07] <fahadash> I am using VMWare Workstation 9 on windows. It didn't really show me logo... But I continued to tap on SHIFT, it did nothing. But I did see Window's StickKeys popup even though my VM had the focus
[19:09] <squinty> fahadash:  might just want to consider booting straight through to desktop then and then edit grub config file to always displayed the grub menu when booting.  see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2  for details
[19:11] <fahadash> squinty, I might have the non-root access, can I edit the grub conf ?
[19:12] <squinty> fahadash:  need admin rights to change.  :(
[19:13] <fahadash> How painful is the LiveCD process ?
[19:14] <Bantu___> squinty: yes you can .. just google it :)
[19:14] <mikael> squinty: It says eth0 state down... but how to get it up?
[19:14] <compdoc> process?
[19:14] <fahadash> I lost my root password
[19:14] <squinty> Bantu___:  can what?
[19:14] <bekks> !root | fahadash
[19:15] <k1l> !password | fahadash
[19:15] <squinty> kll: already been through that
[19:15] <bekks> squinty: Thats sufficient, since there is no root password.
[19:16] <squinty> bekks:  quite well aware of that thank you  afaik that is not the issue
[19:17] <Bantu___> fahadash: https://www.liberiangeek.net/2013/03/unlock-the-root-account-reset-the-root-password-change-username-in-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/
[19:17] <MKCoin> All of a sudden, several of my programs (like nautilus) are no longer showing their CPU usage; instead it seems to be counted as part of XOrg's CPU. is there a way for me to stop this behavior?>
[19:18] <fahadash> Bantu___, I have 12.0 LTS
[19:18] <freijon> MKCoin: how do you know this?
[19:18] <MKCoin> using top it shows; I mean, it seems they are using XOrg to allocate things which they didn't before.
[19:19] <MKCoin> It's not affecting performance or anything, just makes it harder for me to see which program is using what resources
[19:19] <squinty> fahadash: is your ubuntu install new?  if yes, then it might just be easier to reinstall (especially for a vm install)
[19:20] <Fr0Zn> hello
[19:20] <fahadash> squinty, Its not new, it has the build environment for my project. All the source code is safe at the Source Control... But there might still be some stuff that I probably should'nt lose
[19:20] <Bantu___> fahadash: jsut google u problem ..12.0 is old time .. no more suport from ubuntu i think
[19:21] <fahadash> Chuck_Norris is here. I should ask him to squash my password
[19:21] <fahadash> What is the LiveCD process to recover my password ?
[19:22] <teward> anyone know how I can get rid of dash search on internet sources on 14.04, and what packages I should go nuking?
[19:22] <squinty> teward:  you can just turn off the settins afaik
[19:23] <squinty> settings
[19:23] <pbx> teward, do the little buttons that switch that stuff on and off not stick for yhou?
[19:23] <teward> squinty: where?
[19:23] <pbx> teward, "Filter results" in upper right of dash window
[19:23] <teward> squinty: found it
[19:23] <teward> thanks
[19:23] <teward> pbx: squinty: actually the 'filter results' never worked
[19:23] <teward> i couldn't turn off the internet sources
[19:23] <teward> just tweaked it in Settings > Security & Privacy
[19:23] <josefnpat> I just downloaded `vivid-desktop-i386.iso` (The unity 8 preview) but I am stuck at the login manager: What's the livecd username/password?
[19:24] <teward> josefnpat: #ubuntu+1 for Vivid
[19:24] <vivid> yes, do that
[19:24] <josefnpat> teward: thanks
[19:24] <vivid> for me
[19:24]  * vivid thanks Canonical
[19:24] <josefnpat> vivid: haha
[19:24] <vivid> :D
[19:24] <squinty> teward: hmmm... worked here. can't stand the ruddy thing! :)
[19:25] <teward> squinty: that's why i want to remove those scopes and smart searches :/
[19:26] <fahadash> hey hey, I got a better news. I can go into my user's home directory through Guest session
[19:26] <fahadash> May be I should copy the data to an external drive
[19:26] <squinty> o,O
[19:27] <bekks> fahadash: Which password did you lose? The password of your user?
[19:27] <daft_> Hi all. How can install kde-plasma-Desktop on a netbook?
[19:28] <fahadash> bekks, The root and my user both
[19:28] <bekks> fahadash: There is no root password on Ubuntu.
[19:28] <bekks> fahadash: Just follow the instructions given by ubottu to recover your user password:
[19:28] <daft_> ow thaks #kubuntu sory
[19:28] <bekks> !password | fahadash
[19:29] <fahadash> bekks, I tried that. Holding down shift doesn't work. May be I should backup the data first
[19:29] <bekks> fahadash: "holding down shift"?
[19:30] <fahadash> I tried Holing and Tapping both
[19:30] <fahadash> I never see the grub menu
[19:30] <bekks> fahadash: Which Ubuntu are you on?
[19:31] <squinty> fahadash:  seems odd that "guest" account can access your "user" account....something not quite on there I suspect
[19:31] <Engraves> I need help. Everytime I power down my device it reboots after three seconds.
[19:32] <Engraves> I have the acer aspire v5 571 dual booting with win8.1
[19:32] <josefnpat> Engraves: have you tried `shutdown -h 0`?
[19:32] <Engraves> Yes
[19:33] <Engraves> There's nothing in my bios that stops it I tried messing around with it already.
[19:33] <Engraves> There's one thing that kind of fixed it but broke something else
[19:33] <Engraves> lemme send it to you
[19:33] <Engraves> http://blog.redbranch.net/2013/12/03/acer-aspire-reboots-on-ubuntu-shutdown/
[19:33] <Engraves> It let me shutdown but broke the reboot
[19:33] <Engraves> reboot doesn't turn back on
[19:35] <fahadash> squinty, Lucky for me
[19:35] <OerHeks> !info intel-microcode
[19:35] <bekks> fahadash: Which Ubuntu version are you on?
[19:35] <squinty> fahadash:  fwiw, I can access my grub menu in my virtualbox lubuntu install.  never tried vmware but would imagine it would be similiar
[19:36] <squinty> fahadash:  yes if you can grab your data that is a bonus for sure! lol
[19:36] <fahadash> squinty, How did you get to the grub menu ? I have 12.0 LTS
[19:36] <bekks> squinty: s/similar/the same/ :)
[19:36] <squinty> fahadash:  just held down the shift key as I would for a non vm
[19:37] <fahadash> Let me try that one more time once I have backed up the data
[19:37] <fahadash> Which version of ubuntu is the latest with LTS ?
[19:38] <bekks> fahadash: 14.04
[19:38] <A1Recon> Is there a way to read the messages which were displayed in the terminal for the past hour or so?
[19:38] <fahadash> Is it better than 12.0 in your opinion ?
[19:39] <bekks> fahadash: There is no better in terms of software. 12.04 is supported until 2017, 14.04 until 2019. Quote some time left for upgrading.
[19:39] <As4xk> Hi. I have a init.d script for btsync that works when i run "service btsync start". When i run "update-rc.d btsync defaults" i do not get any errors and the K20btsync files gets created in /etc/rcX. Still, when i reboot the computer, the btsync service don't start.
[19:40] <bekks> !upstart | As4xk
[19:41] <jhutchins> upstart is supposed to respect init scripts.
[19:41] <bryan> Hello guys how are you all doing?
[19:41] <squinty> A1Recon:  http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/11/04/%23ubuntu.txt
[19:42] <Engraves> hey guest24471
[19:42] <squinty> A1Recon:  or the html version   http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/11/04/%23ubuntu.html
[19:43] <As4xk> init.d script should wtill work should it not? I think it might be because start-stop-daemon is told to start the daemon as user "btsync" which is an LDAP user. Can this be the reason?
[19:43] <curt> hey guys, I just installed and im having trouble with proprietary nvidia drivers, can someone point me in the right direction?
[19:43] <w9ux> hello everyone, the print screen button doesnt take screenshot..what could be the problem?
[19:43] <A1Recon> squinty: Find what exactly? Give me a keyword
[19:44] <bekks> squinty: I guess he refers to his console, not to IRC.
[19:45] <squinty> A1Recon:  bekks:   ahhh... mea culpa   thought you were refering to the channel here.  sorry  :(
[19:45] <curt> can someone point out a channel to ask about nvidia drivers?
[19:46] <squinty> #nvidia
[19:46] <A1Recon> squinty: Thanks anyway...I was wondering where the logs of this channel were...
[19:46] <bekks> !nvidia | curt
[19:47] <squinty> A1Recon:   :)
[19:49] <teward> i was able to cut down most of the online sources - but it's still showing Flickr, Picasa, Shotwell, and Facebook as online sources in my 14.04 dash - is there a way to get rid of those?
[19:49] <teward> (I got rid of pretty much everything else)
[19:50] <k1l> teward: super+a, then the last section: dash extensions. then click on them and deisable them
[19:50] <A1Recon> So, Is there a way to read the messages which were displayed in the terminal for the past hour or so?
[19:51] <AndChat370944> Ubuntu not loading after i enter my password. Just a blank screen. I pressed ctrl alt f1 and now i am in console
[19:51] <k1l> teward: maybe you need to diable them in the online-accounts setting, too. in system setting
[19:51] <AndChat370944> What can i check pleače advice
[19:54] <teward> k1l: that worked, thanks.
[19:54] <teward> i pretty much nuked most of the other plugins with a large apt-get purge, so meh.  thanks.
[19:56] <slower> bitch
[19:56] <Chuck_Norris> AndChat370944: do you have a nvidia or amd?
[19:57] <AndChat370944> Nvidia

[19:58] <labeeb32> i am trying to share folders over network beween ubuntu and windows. I am trying ubuntu. no installation. its ubuntu 10.04 LTS. i i see ubuntuu's shared folder in windows but i cant open it. it gives me an error and says ti diagnose it. what should i do?
[19:58] <kevindf> I've set up a OpenVPN server (just with the regular tun interface, not tap) and everything connects smoothly with firewall disabled, but once I turn on my firewall again I can connect perfectly but it seems to refuse the routing with as result I have no internet access. I'(ve tried adding rules to iptables such as "-A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE" & "-t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE"  but with no succe
[19:58] <AndChat370944> I guess i need to delete it
[19:58] <kevindf> I have iptables-persistent installed also
[19:59] <Chuck_Norris> AndChat370944: maybe "nomodeset" could help
[19:59] <AndChat370944> I dont know nomodeset. I ll google
[19:59] <Chuck_Norris> AndChat370944: sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[19:59] <AndChat370944> Hard from smart phone
[20:00] <Chuck_Norris> but, you are in a TTY right?
[20:00] <labeeb32> i am trying to share folders over network beween ubuntu and windows. I am trying ubuntu. no installation. its ubuntu 10.04 LTS. i i see ubuntuu's shared folder in windows but i cant open it. it gives me an error and says ti diagnose it. what should i do?
[20:00] <AndChat370944> Yes
[20:00] <Chuck_Norris> ok so: sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[20:00] <AndChat370944> Got there. Next
[20:02] <AndChat370944> I ve reoved conf file and it loads now
[20:02] <Chuck_Norris> in this line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"    add  "nomodeset"    so it looks like:  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"
[20:03] <AndChat370944> Thanks helped me to remember about that conf file
[20:03] <Chuck_Norris> np
[20:04] <Chuck_Norris> AndChat370944:  then:   sudo update-grub
[20:04] <Linnak> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity in Virtualbox. Can I turn off the visual effects in Unity making it a little faster?
[20:05] <xangua> Linnak: or you could try a desktop enviroment that doesn't depend on compiz
[20:05] <skyfall> im having a booting issue in ubuntu 14.10
[20:06] <skyfall> sometimes im unable to boot into ubuntu
[20:06] <skyfall> it keeps on loading and nothing happens till i press the power button
[20:06] <labeeb32> i am trying to share folders over network beween ubuntu and windows. I am trying ubuntu. no installation. its ubuntu 10.04 LTS. i i see ubuntuu's shared folder in windows but i cant open it. it gives me an error and says ti diagnose it. what should i do?
[20:07] <skyfall> anybody ?
[20:07] <brucelee> what does ubuntu use to manage daemons? i know there are scripts in /etc/init.d/*

[20:07] <skyfall> its showing "switching to PORT 3 , PORT 4 "
[20:08] <skyfall> messages while i choose the ubuntu . im dual booting ubuntu and windows
[20:08] <Linnak> xangua: Unity uses compiz. Is compiz built in Unity?
[20:08] <brucelee> bekks: does upstart only pertain to ubuntu or does centos use it too?
[20:08] <bekks> brucelee: Centos doesnt use upstart.
[20:08] <ikonia> it does actually
[20:08] <bekks> It does?
[20:08] <brucelee> ikonia: natively?
[20:08] <labeeb32> i did exactly same but now i cant enter the flder.
[20:08] <brucelee> or do you mean theres just a package for it
[20:08] <ikonia> brucelee: natively ??
[20:08] <ikonia> yes, the init system is upstart
[20:09] <bekks> ikonia: In centos? Since when?
[20:09] <brucelee> i thought everything is going towards systemd?
[20:09] <ikonia> brucelee: check it out
[20:09] <ikonia> bekks: check it out in 6
[20:09] <ikonia> 7 is systemd
[20:09] <brucelee> i see
[20:09] <brucelee> centos 5 is sysV right?
[20:09] <ikonia> why are we talking about centos ?
[20:09] <labeeb32> it gives me the error as network name cannot be found. error is 0*80070043
[20:10] <ikonia> labeeb32: I told you what to do
[20:10] <labeeb32> sorry 0*80070035
[20:11] <labeeb32> it says the name might be misspelle
[20:11] <labeeb32> misspelled
[20:12] <ikonia> labeeb32: I told you what to do
[20:13] <labeeb32> tell me my mistake plz
[20:15] <gordonjcp> evening
[20:15] <gordonjcp> is there a reason why eth0 loses its IP address every 30 seconds?
[20:16] <freijon> I'm sure there is a reason
[20:16] <ikonia> many reasons
[20:16] <OerHeks> gordonjcp, 2 machines with the same IP?
[20:16] <gordonjcp> OerHeks: hope
[20:16] <gordonjcp> *nope
[20:16] <imbezol> it's a security feature :)
[20:16] <tonyg_> i'm running ubuntu 14.04 and one of my office mates tried to login to the machine as a guest and now the system only boots to a black screen. says it can't connect to the x server in the logs. anybody have any ideas?
[20:16] <labeeb32> Plz help me
[20:16] <gordonjcp> one machine, a bunch of different wireless bridges, nothing connected to the far end of the bridge
[20:17] <gordonjcp> OerHeks: "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.xx.99/24"
[20:17] <gordonjcp> where xx is the appropriate octet for that pair of bridges
[20:17] <Chuck_Norris> tonyg_:
[20:17] <gordonjcp> ... and I've got 29 seconds to log in and configure the bridge before the IP address is cleared
[20:17] <Chuck_Norris> sry
[20:17] <imbezol> labeeb32: if you google for 80070035 there are a number of threads that walk through some things to check with your windows config
[20:18] <imbezol> labeeb32: have you tried any of those? it's a generic network path error that could be caused by a number of things
[20:18] <labeeb32> it says network name not found
[20:18] <ikonia> labeeb32: did you do the ping test i told you to do?
[20:19] <imbezol> labeeb32: anyways.. you're going to have to do the footwork here and check all the possibilities
[20:19] <labeeb32> i see UBUNTU in windows network folder. i can enterit. then i see all mu ubuntu's shared folders. but i cannot enter any of them.
[20:19] <ikonia> labeeb32: did you do the ping test i told you to do?
[20:19] <skyfall> anybody there
[20:19] <skyfall> ?
[20:20] <labeeb32> honestly  i dont know how to do ping test. sorry
[20:20] <ikonia> labeeb32: so you hould have said that when i told you to do it
[20:20] <gordonjcp> OerHeks: any idea what else might also be trying to fiddle with the network settings?
[20:20] <Chuck_Norris> tonyg_: maybe .Xauthority was modified, tell us what gives you:  ls -l .Xauthority
[20:21] <labeeb32> yea sorry
[20:21] <imbezol> gordonjcp: are the IPs all in the same range? possible you could have a roque dhcp server?
[20:21] <imbezol> gordonjcp: you could try tcpdump on the interface to watch what system(s) offers an address
[20:21] <OerHeks> gordonjcp, with wireless bridges i have no clue, that 30 second sounds like a MTU
[20:22] <skyfall> hello
[20:22] <skyfall> nybdy ?

[20:23] <Guest37798> guys i need help
[20:23] <teward> Aladiah: take a look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/406414/unable-to-install-nokia-pc-suite-nokuntu-on-13-10-14-04 maybe
[20:23] <skyfall> i cant boot into ubuntu sometimes
[20:23] <teward> Aladiah: maybe that'll help
[20:24] <Chuck_Norris> Aladiah: paste us error messages
[20:24] <Guest37798> i recently installed pantheon and it didn't work
[20:24] <Guest37798> nothing worked
[20:24] <Chuck_Norris> oh! already answered
[20:24] <skyfall> sometimes it keeps on loading
[20:24] <fahadash> squinty, I am now going to try holding down Shift key
[20:24] <teward> Aladiah: keep in mind it's no longer developed though.
[20:24] <genii> !info pantheon
[20:24] <Guest37798> after that  i had shut down
[20:24] <skyfall> what might be the problem ?
[20:24] <genii> Hm.
[20:24] <Guest37798> and boot 2 ubuntu
[20:24] <Aladiah> teward thats the error that gives to me. i already tryed that solution but it dont work
[20:24] <teward> Aladiah: and because of it using an old runtime, that is no longer in 14.04, you might have issues
[20:24] <Guest37798> but then
[20:24] <skyfall> imbezol :
[20:24] <fahadash> squinty, Surprisingly it worked. I am on grub menu
[20:25] <teward> Aladiah: what errors do you get when you try that solution?
[20:25] <Guest37798> i have pantheons background AND INTERFACE AND MY FILES ARE MISSING from my desktop
[20:25] <Guest37798> sry for caps didnt know it was on
[20:25] <Aladiah> when i try to install all those packages , then on package dont install
[20:25] <genii> Guest37798: Sounds like you're probably running Elementary OS and not stock Ubuntu
[20:25] <Guest37798> after that
[20:25] <gordonjcp> imbezol: no systems offer an address
[20:25] <teward> Aladiah: pastebin the error messages, don't just say it doesn't do something.
[20:25] <genii> ( or some mix of the two)
[20:25] <teward> !pastebin > Aladiah
[20:25] <imbezol> skyfall: do you just see the graphical loading screen? or the console?
[20:25] <Guest37798> i tried usin sudo apt remove pantheon
[20:25] <Guest37798> it said i removed pantheon
[20:26] <gordonjcp> OerHeks: I'm not sure what MTU would be in this context
[20:26] <skyfall> graphical
[20:26] <OerHeks> Aladiah, According to the SourceForge page, the development of Nokuntu has stopped, so it was newer updated to use the Gambas 3 runtime.
[20:26] <Guest37798> but its still on the log list
[20:26] <skyfall> sometimes only.
[20:26] <ikonia> mtu wouldn't cause an interface to drop
[20:26] <Guest37798> and i still have these issues
[20:26] <gordonjcp> ikonia: nope
[20:26] <imbezol> skyfall: have you tried hitting escape to see the console and any messages that might be there?
[20:26] <ikonia> it would cause incomplete packets
[20:26] <ikonia> so dont waste time on mtu
[20:26] <Guest37798> how do I FIX HELP PLS ASAP!!!!!!!
[20:26] <skyfall> the ubuntu keeps on loading
[20:26] <ikonia> Guest37798: use elementry os support
[20:26] <ikonia> Guest37798: you are not running ubuntu
[20:26] <acovrig> Has anyone gotten vfio-pci working?
[20:26] <Aladiah> teward :  this what happens  http://paste.ubuntu.com/8824273/
[20:26] <skyfall> i cant get into anything.
[20:26] <Guest37798> I AM i selected it on the log list
[20:26] <gordonjcp> ikonia: a workaround is to run (as root) "watch ifconfig eth0 192.168.xx.99/24"
[20:27] <Guest37798> HOW TO FIX?????
[20:27] <gordonjcp> ikonia: but really I shouldn't have to do that
[20:27] <skyfall> im dual booting windows and ubuntu
[20:27] <ikonia> gordonjcp: agreed,
[20:27] <skyfall> using easy BCD
[20:27] <ikonia> gordonjcp: is the interface being set by dhcp ?
[20:27] <ikonia> skyfall: bcd is nothing to do with ubuntu
[20:27] <gordonjcp> ikonia: no
[20:27] <Guest37798> how to ix?
[20:27] <ikonia> gordonjcp: how is it getting set
[20:27] <fahadash> I got my ubuntu on Rescue Mode, I ran passwd user, I supplied my password and I got 'Autentication Token Manipulation Error' why ?
[20:27] <gordonjcp> ikonia: there's nothing for it to pick DHCP up from
[20:27] <ikonia> Guest37798: join the elementary OS channel and ask for help
[20:27] <skyfall> yeah. i know. i created a boot entry for ubuntu
[20:27] <skyfall> from windows.
[20:28] <gordonjcp> ikonia: by me typing "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.xx.99/24" where xx is set for the pair of bridges I want to configure
[20:28] <Guest37798> how do i jon elementary os support
[20:28] <skyfall> using easy BCD
[20:28] <ikonia> gordonjcp: sorry I'm missing a bit of background info
[20:28] <teward> Aladiah: i'd suggest maybe hunting other software - Nokuntu is no longer developed so that may be one problem.
[20:28] <ikonia> gordonjcp: so these are not physical interfaces, they are bridge devices, correct ?
[20:28] <gordonjcp> ikonia: no worries; I am setting up a whole bunch of wireless bridges which are numbered 192.168.<some value>.<some value>
[20:28] <bubbasaures> skyfall, We can't help with the easybcd boot, what other options do you have in mind?
[20:28] <Aladiah> Teward do you kknow some good one that work ?
[20:29] <gordonjcp> ikonia: no, these are physical pieces of equipment, microwave links
[20:29] <skyfall> i dont know. i want to know why im getting this issue.
[20:29] <skyfall> and to solve it.
[20:29] <Aladiah> Because xGnoki that comes in app center dont run too
[20:29] <ikonia> gordonjcp: so what is the name (device file) of the interface in this example
[20:29] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Can you boot windows?
[20:29] <ikonia> eg: br0, eth0,
[20:29] <Aladiah> teward
[20:29] <gordonjcp> ikonia: on the device? em1, but that's irrelevant
[20:30] <skyfall> yeah. i have no issue with windows. but recent probolem i noted with windows is its time and date is getting changed automatically
[20:30] <squinty> fahadash: you need to remount the drive r/w   see (or similiar when googling for that error message)  http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-reset-forgotten-root-password/
[20:30] <ikonia> gordonjcp: just seeing what the OS thinks it is,
[20:30] <gordonjcp> ikonia: the laptop I have plugged into it to program them is losing its IP address every 30 seconds
[20:30] <ikonia> gordonjcp: so walk me through, you boot the machine, does it get an IP address at all ?
[20:30] <gordonjcp> ikonia: not for eth0, but that's because there's nothing connected
[20:30] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Than there is not much we can do, unless you want to use the linux dual booting grub.
[20:30] <mojtaba> Hi, I need to install windows beside ubuntu, I tried to fix the grub after that, using boot-repair-disk-64bit.iso, but it just removed windows from the grub list, do you know how can I fix it?
[20:30] <ikonia> gordonjcp: no for em1
[20:31] <ikonia> gordonjcp: does em1 get an address at all
[20:31] <skyfall> how to use the linux dual booting grub ?
[20:31] <mojtaba> should I re-install windows? ( :( )
[20:31] <skyfall> can you be more specific ?
[20:31] <gordonjcp> ikonia: uhm
[20:31] <skyfall> what is it for ?
[20:31] <fahadash> Thanks squinty I got my password fixed now
[20:31] <gordonjcp> ikonia: back up  a minute
[20:31] <bubbasaures> mojtaba, Did you save the bootinfo summary?
[20:31]  * fahadash smooches squinty and bekks 
[20:31] <ikonia> gordonjcp: no problem, take your time
[20:31] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba: do you got a terminal there?
[20:31] <gordonjcp> em1 is the interface on the box of equipment; it's not the problem
[20:31] <squinty> fahadash:  good to hear  :)
[20:31] <fahadash> Thank you guys
[20:31] <bubbasaures> !grub | skyfall
[20:31] <mojtaba> bubbasaures: from that boot-repair disk?
[20:31] <labeeb32> help me plz
[20:31] <ikonia> gordonjcp: ok, so which device is having the problem.
[20:31] <mojtaba> Chuck_Norris: I am now in ubuntu
[20:31] <gordonjcp> ikonia: the microwave bridge can be considered to be a black box that we don't care about, the laptop is the problem
[20:32] <bubbasaures> mojtaba, Yes, it pops up a url and tells you to save it.
[20:32] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba: sudo update-grub
[20:32] <ikonia> gordonjcp: understood
[20:32] <Guest37798> no one at \#elementary
[20:32] <gordonjcp> ikonia: there's my laptop, a switch, and a box I want to program over the network
[20:32] <ikonia> gordonjcp: with you
[20:32] <gordonjcp> ikonia: the laptop has a boring old Intel onboard chipset ethernet port, eth0
[20:32] <mojtaba> bubbasaures: I did not have access to internet, so unfortunately, I do not have that.
[20:32] <ikonia> gordonjcp: with you so far
[20:32] <gordonjcp> I set that with "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.76.99/24" say
[20:32] <mojtaba> Chuck_Norris: Will it give me windows in the list?
[20:33] <ikonia> gordonjcp: so when you boot the laptop, does it get an IP address at all, or just stay blank
[20:33] <skyfall> my primary os is windows and i installed ubuntu in another partition. as i dont know how to install the boot loader, i created a boot entry using a software called Easy BCD
[20:33] <Chuck_Norris> most possible
[20:33] <bubbasaures> mojtaba, Ah, have you tries the sudo update-grub from the ubuntu install?
[20:33] <zteam> mojtaba try to run sudo update-grub and make sure your windows drive is plugged in as well, hopefully this will get Windows back into the boot-menu
[20:33] <gordonjcp> ikonia: it stays blank, until I set it
[20:33] <bubbasaures> tried*
[20:33] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba:  most probably
[20:33] <skyfall> any other suggestions ?
[20:33] <ikonia> gordonjcp: ok, are you expecting it to get a dhcp address ?
[20:33] <gordonjcp> nope
[20:33] <mojtaba> Chuck_Norris: is it grub or grub2?
[20:33] <squinty> Guest37798:  says there is 106 participants in that channel here
[20:33] <ikonia> gordonjcp: are you expecting it to get an address, or are you expecting to manually set it
[20:33] <Chuck_Norris> try just grub
[20:33] <gordonjcp> there's nothing for it to get a DHCP address from
[20:33] <Guest37798> and no one is typing
[20:34] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba: try just grub
[20:34] <ikonia> gordonjcp: ok, so you're expecting to set it
[20:34] <mojtaba> zteam, you mean I should mount the windows drive?
[20:34] <ikonia> gordonjcp: but when you set it, it drops the address correct ?
[20:34] <gordonjcp> ikonia: I'm setting it manually, with the command I mentioned a few lines ago; this worksfor about 30 seconds then drops
[20:34] <mojtaba> Chuck_Norris: Should I mount the win drive before that?
[20:34] <gordonjcp> it's the weirdest thing
[20:34] <ikonia> gordonjcp: ok, can you pastebin your interfaces file ?
[20:34] <ikonia> gordonjcp: appreciate there should be nothing in there - but lets check the basics
[20:34] <bubbasaures> skyfall, So what happens when you choose ubuntu in the menu, and can we confirm it did work.
[20:34] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba:  that is in the case that windows is installed in another HD
[20:35] <mojtaba> Chuck_Norris: no, it is in the same HDD, but unmounted
[20:35] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Note I address you with your nick prefaced.
[20:35] <Chuck_Norris> so: sudo update-grub will do it for you
[20:35] <gordonjcp> ikonia: not readily since that particular machine has no internet connection either, but there's nothing in /etc/network/interfaces
[20:35] <squinty> Guest37798:   in that channel type  /topic    read and understand what it says
[20:35] <skyfall> when grub2 appears, i can select ubuntu from it. but after i choose it, it keeps on loading
[20:35] <gordonjcp> ikonia: not *nothing* nothing, but nothing different from default
[20:35] <zteam> mojtaba, I would have that one mounted yes: then just run sudo update-grub
[20:35] <Aladiah> How to run a windows virtual box in Lubuntu 14.04 ?
[20:35] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba: np, if its is unmounted then
[20:35] <ikonia> gordonjcp: I assume the loop back address is configured i nthere ?
[20:36] <gordonjcp> ikonia: yes, it's exactly a default interfaces file
[20:36] <labeeb32> ikonia..
[20:36] <ikonia> gordonjcp: ok, is network manager enabled ?
[20:36] <gordonjcp> ikonia: ah, yes, maybe I should disable that for now
[20:36] <zteam> mojtaba, hopefully that will re-add Windows to Grubs list, but I'm not sure
[20:36] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Do you have a live ubuntu iso on a disk or usb?
[20:36] <mojtaba> It is done, I will reboot to see what happened. Chuck_Norris, zteam: thank you very much
[20:36] <labeeb32> ikonia plz help me
[20:36] <ikonia> gordonjcp: I suspect network manager is dhcp'ing
[20:36] <gordonjcp> ikonia: I bet it's that
[20:36] <labeeb32> how to do png test
[20:36] <squinty> Aladiah:  install virtualbox via the ubuntu repo's   comes in two flavours   oracles and open source
[20:37] <OerHeks> Aladiah, install virtualbox, and run it to install windows https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[20:37] <Chuck_Norris> mojtaba: yeah, reboot
[20:37] <zteam> mojtaba, you are welcome
[20:37] <zteam> :-)
[20:37] <gordonjcp> ikonia: ... and dnsmasq is set for a 30 second timeout
[20:37] <skyfall> yeah. i have it
[20:37] <ikonia> gordonjcp: I think we have a winner....
[20:37] <skyfall> i dont know what u meant by live
[20:37] <skyfall> i have my ubutnu 14.04 LTS setup
[20:37] <squinty> Aladiah:  there is a specific virtualbox channel available here on the freenode irc network called #vbox
[20:38] <skyfall> in my usb that i used to install ubuntu
[20:38] <gordonjcp> ikonia: think I'm going to go and teach some people a few Gaelic words they've never heard before
[20:38] <Novice201y> Hello. How can I set time in terminal using SNTP?
[20:38] <squinty> lol
[20:38] <ikonia> gordonjcp: good work, sorry it went a bit around the houses
[20:38] <gordonjcp> ikonia: that's exactly it, that's fixed it
[20:38] <gordonjcp> ikonia: nope, it's always useful to bounce an idea around when you're stuck
[20:39] <gordonjcp> ikonia: and tomorrow I get to put a couple of them here -> http://i.imgur.com/vcZR0ks.jpg
[20:39] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Part of the problem here is windows, they have changed the file system and added a uefi bios, this makes booting more complex, this sound familiar to you?
[20:40] <skyfall> no
[20:40] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Also use my nick, when you address me, you can tab complete nicks here.
[20:41] <bubbasaures> skyfall, Ah okay, well for us to possibly help you that info is pertinent, we can confirm this from the live ubuntu though, can you boot it and come to the channel on it?
[20:42] <skyfall> bubbo:let me see
[20:42] <bubbasaures> skyfall, type bubb hit the tab and it will correctly finish my nick.
[20:43] <fruitz> anybody had screen brightness problems after upgrading?
[20:43] <skyfall> bubbasaures, yes i get it,thanks
[20:43] <martin1969> hello. i have a puzzling problem. i have a logitech speakers and sometimes i have the headphone hooked up to it. whenever i unplug the headphone the screen would turn black with text, asking me for user name and password. what gives?
[20:43] <bubbasaures> fruitz, To vague, tell us your issue.
[20:43] <fruitz> mine is stuck at 100% and i cannot change it
[20:43] <fruitz> i tried with xbacklight and xrandr
[20:43] <bubbasaures> skyfall, cool, just keeps us communicating with notifications. ;)
[20:43] <MrQvik> Geocaching?
[20:43] <skyfall> bubbasaures, sure.
[20:44] <skyfall> bubbasaures, im just new to ubuntu . thats why.
[20:45] <fruitz> its strange bcos xbacklight does change the value (i check with xbacklight -get)
[20:45] <fruitz> but the screen brightness stays the same

[20:51] <arendyl> Hello. Is this a good chat for technical help?

[21:00] <after_r> Hello can someone please tell me why my `rsyslogd` crashes when i use a expression like in http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/rsyslog_conf_filter.html in one of my files in /etc/rsyslog.d/ ??
[21:01] <after_r> I just have one file that has `if $programname == "lpfw" then { }` and then when I do `service rsyslog restart` it doesnt start
[21:01] <after_r> there is no PID,... no running process or nothing
[21:01] <after_r> but when I comment it out it runs
[21:01] <after_r> is that type of configuration turned off or something?
[21:01] <after_r> do i have to enable it?
[21:02] <after_r> or why
[21:02] <after_r> when I use the `RainerScript` expression
[21:04] <after_r> anyone?
[21:04] <after_r> I am try to log a message that has one word but does not have a different word
[21:06] <treehug88> after_r: maybe it logs something into /var/log somewhere (re: rsyslogd)
[21:06] <ChrisD24> Any advice on a MacBook Pro 2011 Trackpad? I turned of tap to click - that is annoying. But it just seems weird (best I can explain). Jumpy so to speak. Anyone with a MPB have any experience?

[21:08] <ChrisD24> Ok - I'll try but I don't see a manual helping. There are limited options I can choose from.

[21:27] <Squantiff> It stopped working after a reboot
[21:27] <daftykins> alright so did you entirely wipe ChromeOS on this thing?
[21:27] <Squantiff> Yes
[21:28] <Squantiff> The entire drive is wiped and encrypted
[21:28] <daftykins> alright install pastebinit, then run "lspci | pastebinit"
[21:28] <daftykins> oh encryption too. jeez
[21:28] <OerHeks> labeeb32, 10.04 desktop?
[21:28] <labeeb32> yes
[21:28] <Squantiff> It accepts the encryption password just fine
[21:28] <labeeb32> LTS
[21:28] <daftykins> Squantiff: run the above please
[21:28] <labeeb32> i dont know about desktop
[21:29] <OerHeks> labeeb32, that one is getting no updates for over a year now
[21:29] <labeeb32> i idont know im just trying it
[21:29] <labeeb32> i want to recover data from my hard
[21:29] <Squantiff> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8825019/
[21:29] <labeeb32> ubuntu 14 dowsnt show my data
[21:29] <labeeb32> so i have to use this version
[21:31] <labeeb32> lucid lynx
[21:32] <daftykins> Squantiff: ok and "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[21:32] <raschy> so i've managed to bork unity on  my machine
[21:32] <OerHeks> labeeb32, you might want to try 12.04 lts, still supported with updates, there you might be able to install samba utils
[21:32] <labeeb32> 12.04 is latest?
[21:33] <Squantiff> quick side question, how do I exit vi?
[21:33] <SonikkuAmerica> labeeb32: 14.10 is the latest.
[21:33] <SonikkuAmerica> Squantiff: [ :q ]
[21:33] <labeeb32> ok
[21:33] <bubbasaures> raschy, unity/compiz have resets, look for the one on your release.
[21:33] <SonikkuAmerica> labeeb32: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/download
[21:33] <labeeb32> 12.04 lucid lynx or precise pangolin?
[21:33] <daftykins> Squantiff: escape, :q! enter
[21:34] <edrocks> what should I use to run something at startup in 14.04?
[21:34] <teward> labeeb32: 12.04 is precise - that's the previous LTS - 14.04 is the latest LTS
[21:34] <Squantiff> ty
[21:34] <teward> edrocks: startup as in, at boot time, or at login time?
[21:34] <daftykins> Squantiff: use nano if you're not experienced with vi
[21:34] <labeeb32> so u say is precise pangolin?
[21:34] <after_r> i got it
[21:34] <bubbasaures> edrocks, depends on what it is, apps can be in startup applications

[21:34] <edrocks> I think boot time i need to run an agent
[21:34] <OerHeks> !precise
[21:35] <daftykins> Squantiff: line 20 tells you your manual edit typo ;)
[21:35] <bubbasaures> edrocks, You will need to detail your situation and end goal to get help.
[21:35] <labeeb32> cani ask why didnt u tell me to download 14.10?
[21:35] <Squantiff> You caught that huh? :P
[21:35] <labeeb32> i mean 14.04
[21:35] <daftykins> Squantiff: i'm sharp, me ;)
[21:35] <edrocks> bubbasaures: I need to make sure a program which listens on a specific port is always running even after restarts
 ubuntu 14 dowsnt show my data
[21:36] <labeeb32> right.
[21:36] <Loshki> edrocks: the last thing to execute before greeting the user is /etc/rc.local
[21:36] <bubbasaures> edrocks, little better, the channel is your best help, not myself in this area, name the software involved is all probably.
[21:37] <labeeb32> so am i able to share folders from ubuntu trry in windows to transfer data?
[21:37] <labeeb32> i mean i cant enter shared folders in indows
[21:37] <edrocks> bubbasaures: i just need something to look up. It seems like theres several "service" or init systems between the different versions of ubuntu
[21:37] <bubbasaures> edrocks, Ah, you're phishing. ;)
[21:38] <OerHeks> labeeb32, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba
[21:38] <sparr> megasasctl -v says that a bunch of my drives don't exist, as if they aren't plugged in. the drives are there. why can't it see them? some configuration changes may have been made since the last time the array was active and the drives were in use
[21:39] <edrocks> bubbasaures: ahh just found what i was looking for systemd
[21:39] <Squantiff> I just tried to type startx now after fixing that typo and it's just a black screen
[21:39] <jimmy51_> running 14.04.  don't have any types of VPN's listed as options when I try to create a connectiong in Network Manager.  I have network-manager-openconnect-gnome and openconnect packages installed.  what am i missing?
[21:39] <Squantiff> How do I go back to command promp?
[21:39] <edrocks> o never mind i guess ubuntu still uses upstart in 14.04
[21:40] <daftykins> Squantiff: that's not how you should really be doing it, also that doesn't appear to be ubuntu at all (at least not official) ctrl+alt+F1 for a TTY.
[21:41] <jimmy51_> !vpn
[21:43] <jimmy51_> seems odd that no VPN connection types are listed
[21:43] <raschy2> So when I log into unity I only get a wallpaper, no panel or dash
[21:44] <raschy2> Xfce works, tried to reinstall unity to no avail
[21:44] <Eleuin> raschy, did you by any chance install the proprietary drivers (fglrx)?
[21:44] <Squantiff> daftykins, would it help to uninstall and reinstall x?
[21:44] <Eleuin> not sure of the name of the nvidia ones
[21:45] <raschy2> I installed the proprietary nvidia drivers
[21:45] <raschy2> I tried installing the latest nvidia drivers, then uninstalled them when they weren't working well
[21:46] <raschy2> Reinstalled the proprietary ones from the Ubuntu repo
[21:46] <daftykins> Squantiff: no. either fix the edits in xorg.conf, or "mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old" to ignore your edits completely
[21:48] <Eleuin> really does sound like xorg breakage caused by the graphics drivers
[21:49] <Squantiff> daftykins, I rebooted after making the changes in VI and everything works
[21:49] <Squantiff> Well, seems to
[21:49] <raschy2> Alright so how do I go about unbreakable xorg
[21:49] <raschy2> *unbreaking
[21:49] <Squantiff> Thank you for your help and your patience with a noobie such as my self. I appreciate it.
[21:50] <Eleuin> i will be right back
[21:50] <labeeb32> wheredo i find settings as windows client for samba? i mean on samba website?
[21:52] <daftykins> Squantiff: no problemo, enjoy!
[21:52] <squinty> labeeb32:  maybe try asking in the #samba channel here on freenode irc network
[21:53] <Squantiff> Any chance you'd want to help me make it so the function keys on this chromebook work like they're supposed to? i.e. volume/brightness up/down, fullscreen, etc
[21:53] <jhutchins> !chromebook
[21:53] <jhutchins> Squantiff: I think there is a page about chromebooks on the ubuntu wiki
[21:55] <fes> do you know what packages are needed to use gnome 3.14 and wayland? i have installed gnome 3.14 through ppa's
[21:57] <daftykins> Squantiff: nah that'd be device specific knowledge and not something i'm into
[21:57] <Squantiff> Fair enough.
[21:59] <Squantiff> Would it make any sense for me to install GRUB2 if I have GRUB installed?
[22:00] <Vinixie> Hey
[22:02] <Eleuin> Squantiff: you still have GRUB legacy?
[22:03] <squinty> Squantiff:  might want to see if any of the "Improvements" relate to your needs  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Improvements
[22:03] <Squantiff> I'm not even sure what that means
[22:03] <Eleuin> GRUB2 has been the default bootloader for a couple LTS releases though
[22:03] <Squantiff> I just know my install won't boot unless I have the USB stick that I used to install it with plugged in
[22:04] <Squantiff> My swap is encrypted with a random key. Could it be that that key is on that USB?
[22:06] <Eleuin> Squantiff: how did you set up Ubuntu?
[22:07] <Eleuin> because it sounds like you didn't install a bootloader on your hard drive
[22:07] <Squantiff> I specifically remember choosing to install GRUB on the harddrive
[22:07] <Squantiff> This is the tutorial I followed verbatim http://www.circuidipity.com/c720-lubuntubook-install.html
[22:08] <raschy2> Alright so I've discovered that unity works for guest accounts and not for my own
[22:08] <daftykins> you probably booted when the hard disk was sdb and the flash drive was sda unknowingly
[22:08] <Bashing-om> Squantiff: ^^ Eleuin . What returns -> sudo grub-probe -t device /boot/grub <- ?
[22:09] <Squantiff> Bashing-om, it says /dev/sda1
[22:09] <ObrienDave> sda1 is a partition. should have used sda
[22:10] <guig33k> i don t understand a friend to me have 14.04 LTS and upgrade to 14.10 and he have only mouse and the screen on unity
[22:10] <guig33k> i don t know if it s the fglrx driver which make pb
[22:10] <Eleuin> ^^ bootloader goes on the GPT on sda
[22:10] <k1l> guig33k: make sure the video driver is working
[22:11] <CoC_towlie> what is the major change in 14.10? systemd?
[22:11] <Bashing-om> Squantiff: IF 'sda' is the hard drive AND the partition scheme is MBR, that is the correct location AND in bios you have set to boot the 1st hard drive as 1st boot priority.
[22:11] <k1l> guig33k: if he loaded the driver from some website that is the problem
[22:11] <guig33k> k1l: no
[22:11] <raschy2> Ya so I've got unity not working as well, cept the driver works cause xfce works
[22:12] <Squantiff> sda is the hard drive and sda1 is where /boot is
[22:12] <guig33k> he reinstall the 14.04 and upgrade to 14.10 withou installing fglrx and it s work
[22:12] <Eleuin> uh, lol
[22:12] <guig33k> and he install fglrx driver after and it s work
[22:12] <guig33k> there are a pb somewhere
[22:12] <guig33k> but we don t know what
[22:13] <sparr> I'm standing in front of a server with two failed drives in a RAID. How can I identify which drives they are, physically?
[22:13] <Bashing-om> Squantiff: ObrienDave : sysop@1404mini:~$ sudo grub-probe -t device /boot/grub >> /dev/sda1 . Where my primary OS is the 1st HD, - sda1 is the location of grub's config file for the final stages - I think.
[22:13] <Eleuin> hmh
[22:14] <wwat> hi guys. my laptop refuses to boot into linux installations. it boots fine into *live* linux distributions, but not to installations. i've tried a bunch of different distributions. What could be wrong? screen goes black right after the bios stuff. it doesn't even recognize that there is a bootable device
[22:15] <Squantiff> sda1 is JUST for /boot, sda2 is a randomly encrypted swap file, and sda3 is my OS
[22:16] <daftykins> wwat: make and model?
[22:16] <Bashing-om> wwat: !nomodeset | wwat try this and see what results:
[22:16] <wwat> daftykins: dell latitude e6510
[22:17] <daftykins> wwat: if you installed with updates enabled, try Bashing-om's suggestion
[22:17] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu 12.04, unity 2d, i'm unable to set alt-f2, it's in italics, not sure why -- the other keyboard shortcuts can be set -- just not the ones in italics -- hints & tips please http://imgur.com/wYfWkVz
[22:18] <wwat> daftykins: i installed without a network mirror or whatever it's called. does that matter?
[22:19] <wwat> Bashing-om: ok i'll try thanks
[22:19] <mach20x> Trying to link Ubuntu to hardware resources via chroot to enable framebuffer for interface on my android device
[22:20] <Airbander> how can i show all files end ".iso" and i have in my pc
[22:20] <jq-> Hey, so my ethernet is connected and I have a local ip, but I have no internet access. What else can I check?
[22:20] <wwat> Bashing-om: daftykins however, if that nomodeset thing was the problem, isn't it odd that i sometimes (depending on how i try to boot) get an error message that no bootable device is found?
[22:20] <labeeb32> i booted ubuntu 12.04precise and i dont want to install it. i want to try it. i want to reover my data. what option should i chooose?
[22:20] <mach20x> daftykins: any suggestions
[22:21] <Airbander> i downloaded a OP but i forget where i save it and it's a iso file how find it and thanks " info: i have only one hard drive"
[22:21] <daftykins> mach20x: sorry not interested
[22:21] <daftykins> wwat: use the F12 boot menu to explicitly select your hard disk
[22:21] <wwat> daftykins: yeah i've tried that
[22:21] <labeeb32> i booted ubuntu 12.04precise and i dont want to install it. i want to try it. i want to reover my data. what option should i chooose?
[22:21] <tgm4883> labeeb32: live mode wouldn't do any installation unless you tell it to
[22:21] <daftykins> wwat: what OS did this Dell come with? did you wipe it entirely?
[22:21] <tgm4883> Airbander: is it not in the Downloads folder?
[22:22] <Airbander> nope i forget where i mv
[22:22] <Bashing-om> wwat: "sometimes (depending on how i try to boot) get an error message that no  bootable device is found?
[22:22] <EriC^^> Airbander: sudo find / -iname "*.iso"
[22:22] <mach20x> Thanks for being upfront, at the least daftykins
[22:22] <labeeb32> it asks me following options. install ubuntu server, multiple server install with MAAS< check disk for defects< test memory< boot from first hard dik< back< expert< rescue a broken system
[22:23] <wwat> daftykins: i use different hard drives. i've tried both usb drives and random hdd drives. as i said, booting them works with live linux distros, but not installations
[22:23] <Airbander> thanks
[22:23] <Airbander> the command find
[22:23] <Bashing-om> wwat: ^^ indicates to me a problem with grub fining it's config files.
[22:23] <Airbander> cool
[22:23] <tgm4883> labeeb32: what are you trying to do?
[22:23] <labeeb32> i want to try it
[22:23] <daftykins> wwat: yes, you don't need to repeat yourself :) EFI or legacy install then?
[22:23] <labeeb32> live
[22:23] <jq-> My ethernet is connected and I have a local ip, but I have no internet access. What else can I check?
[22:23] <tgm4883> labeeb32: server doesn't have a live mode
[22:23] <wwat> Bashing-om: yeah.. i've never gotten as far as to the grub selection screen
[22:23] <tgm4883> labeeb32: you want to grab the desktop version
[22:24] <daftykins> labeeb32: you downloaded the wrong one. you want desktop, not server
[22:24] <Airbander> coool
[22:24] <Airbander> i love linux
[22:24] <tgm4883> jq-: DNSD
[22:24] <labeeb32> o maannnnnn
[22:24] <labeeb32> ok
[22:24] <labeeb32> thanx
[22:24] <tgm4883> jq-: DNS
[22:24] <EriC^^> Airbander: no problem
[22:24] <labeeb32> ubuntu 12.04 LTS precise pangolin is a server?
[22:24] <Bashing-om> wwat: Humm .. now that ain't good. So, can you boot the liveDVD to "try ubuntu" mode ? as a place to start touble shooting .
[22:24] <jq-> tgm4883: Shouldn't that be auto configured like every other device on my network?
[22:24] <wwat> daftykins: not sure. i can't recall setting UEFI or legacy during the linux installations? i tend to use the graphical install
[22:25] <Bashing-om> trouble*
[22:25] <tgm4883> labeeb32: it can be. there is a desktop and a server
[22:25] <mircx1> hello i see very much guide for install smtp_server what i want is good link to install smtp_server someone can please give to me?
[22:25] <tgm4883> labeeb32: if you are just trying it out, why are you not trying out 14.04?
[22:25] <Airbander> thanks i found it
[22:25] <daftykins> wwat: i'll let Bashing-om carry on so as to not tread on toes with two cooks at once :)
[22:25] <k1l> labeeb32: if you downloaded the server image, yes. if its the desktop cd/dvd no
[22:25] <wwat> Bashing-om: i can, yes... i can boot any live linux distro that i've tried. as long as i create them using the Pen drive linux tool
[22:25] <tgm4883> jq-: well yes, but you said it wasn't working
[22:25] <labeeb32> bcos it doesnt show me my hard files
[22:25] <Airbander> eric thanks
[22:25] <labeeb32> it gives some sort of error
[22:25] <Airbander> can locate do the same job ?
[22:25] <EriC^^> Airbander: no problem :)
[22:25] <labeeb32> 10shows me files
[22:26] <wwat> daftykins: ok thanks for your help
[22:26] <labeeb32> but somene told me to try 12
[22:26] <EriC^^> Airbander: yes, but you have to use sudo updatedb
[22:26] <k1l> labeeb32: 10? 12?
[22:26] <labeeb32> ubuntu
[22:26] <tgm4883> labeeb32: 14.04 is the latest LTS version
[22:26] <EriC^^> Airbander: that updates the database of the files, locate is quicker to find stuff
[22:27] <Bashing-om> wwat: OK, let's see about booting the install .. reboot, and as soon as the bios screen clears, depress and hold the right shift key, do you now get the grub boot menu ?
[22:27] <k1l> labeeb32: seems like you are mixing a lot of things here. can you make a line which describes you actual issue with all info?
[22:27] <Airbander> thanks alot
[22:27] <tgm4883> labeeb32: it's the recommended one to use
[22:27] <k1l> labeeb32: there are 2 ubuntu releases each year. so ubuntu 10 could be 10.04 or 10.10
[22:27] <Airbander> thanks
[22:27] <labeeb32> its 10.04
[22:27] <EriC^^> Airbander: no problem
[22:28] <k1l> labeeb32: seems like you got the server.iso and not the desktop one.
[22:28] <labeeb32> ofcoarse. now downloading desktop
[22:29] <mircx1> hello i see very much guide for install smtp_server what i want is good link to install smtp_server someone can please give to me?
[22:29] <wwat> Bashing-om: i do get a boot menu when booting the install/live disks. i guess this is the grub boot menu?
[22:30] <Myles_> Hey there, I have 8GB of ram on my ubuntu server, I look in /top as root and see processes at top using 4% and it states 5GB used at the top in KiB, is there hidden places it could be used and how do I find where my memory is going?
[22:30] <k1l> Myles_: see "free -m" and look at the 2. line to see what is used by buffers and cache
[22:31] <Myles_>  total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached Mem:          7932       4953       2978          1         39       4364
[22:31] <k1l> Myles_: ok, 3rd line then.
[22:31] <k1l> (should be obvious when i even said buffers and cache)
[22:31] <Bashing-om> wwat: That you can boot the liveUSB is a good thing, let's see what it takes to boot the install system. reboot and reset bios to the hard drive as 1st boot priority, and continue the boot process, soon as the bios screen clears deperess and hold the right shift key to get grub's boot menu in the install. IF you can get to this, we try and make the 'nomodeset" edit and see what results.
[22:31] <Myles_> -/+ buffers/cache:        549       7382
[22:31] <k1l> Myles_: linuxatemyram.com
[22:32] <mircx1> someone?
[22:32] <Myles_> Thanks haha, I've never seen this happen :p
[22:32] <labeeb32> my windows crashed. i tried to nstall new window but it gives some sort of error and wants me to format hard. so i want to use ubuntu to get all my data in another pc having windows. first i tried ubuntu 14.04 desktop but it didnt show my hard files and showed all my hard as unallocated space. then i tried randomly 10.04 LTS and it showed me all my data. then i tried to share data over network so i can transfer data but tats not happening
[22:33] <wwat> Bashing-om: ok noted. unfortunately i'm not able to do this while i talk with you. i've read about the nomodeset edit and will try this
[22:33] <daftykins> labeeb32: a moment ago you claimed you were booting server, your story keeps changing?
[22:33] <tgm4883> mircx1: have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/email-services.html
[22:34] <labeeb32> yes recently i downloaded 12.04 server acidently
[22:34] <tgm4883> daftykins: I think his 12.04 is server
[22:34] <Bashing-om> wwat: Roger, we "expect" that a graphics driver is not loading. 'nomodeset' will use the suystem driver to boot, and once booted we can install a proper graphics driver.
[22:34] <labeeb32> but before that i used 10.04
[22:34] <labeeb32> desktop
[22:34] <geirha> labeeb32: My suggestions would be to 1. Install openssh-server in the Ubuntu live session, 2. Install WinSCP on the windows machine, and use it to connect to the machine running Ubuntu live
[22:35] <wwat> Bashing-om: i see. thank you very much for your help
[22:35] <labeeb32> this all for transferrring data?
[22:35] <Bashing-om> wwat: We are here to assist, get you up on 'buntu !
[22:36] <geirha> labeeb32: That's mainly because I know the ssh protocol well, samba/smb/cifs, tend to be ... cumbersome
[22:36] <wwat> Bashing-om: i appriciate that :)
[22:36] <labeeb32> well. and do i have to connect direct ethernet cable or via network?
[22:37] <geirha> labeeb32: Doesn't matter as long as you can reach it
[22:37] <geirha> via TCP/IP
[22:37] <labeeb32> sure. is it fast for transferring data?
[22:37] <labeeb32> i mean around 10 Mbs is fast enough for me
[22:38] <labeeb32> i have around 150 gb data to transfer
[22:39] <WTDs> irc.DarkUnix.Org
[22:39] <WTDs> connect irc.DarkUnix.Org
[22:39] <daftykins> WTDs: use the status window.
[22:40] <geirha> labeeb32: There's some overhead, but not that much
[22:40] <Baluse> http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4c5_1382115025&comments=1
[22:40] <daftykins> Baluse: this is not the place for links
[22:43] <CoC_towlie> is there f2fs supported install for ubuntu 14.10 yet?
[22:43] <labeeb32> but what to do about winscp interface settings
[22:43] <labeeb32> i mean port no ad other stuff
[22:44] <labeeb32> what protocol should i choose? sftp, ftp or scp?
[22:44] <daftykins> labeeb32: port would always be 22, IP would be whatever the live system has.
[22:45] <k1l> rsync
[22:45] <jhutchins> labeeb32: Default port is 22, smart admins change that.
[22:45] <labeeb32> and ip is host name?
[22:46] <k1l> its your local networks ip.
[22:46] <tgm4883> jhutchins: any other reason to do that other than security through obscurity?
[22:46] <labeeb32> whats hostname?
[22:47] <k1l> tgm4883: it doesnt stop people who really want to get in your system. but it hides form the scriptkiddies just running the typical scripts scanning the whole net on port 22
[22:47] <jhutchins> tgm4883: Actually, brute force attacks are far less likely on a shifted port, they figure if you were smart enough to move it you probably did other things right.
[22:47] <geirha> labeeb32: If you don't have hostnames on your local network, just input the IP instead
[22:48] <labeeb32> ip of ubuntu laptop?
[22:48] <genii> fail2ban is still useful, even if you've shifted the ssh ports and other ones
[22:48] <geirha> yes
[22:48] <daftykins> labeeb32: open a terminal and run "ifconfig" if you don't know
[22:48] <tgm4883> jhutchins: k1l wouldn't something like fail2ban resolve that?
[22:49] <geirha> labeeb32, daftykins: Or if you want something easier to read than ifconfig:   ip -o -4 addr
[22:49] <daftykins> hah, not exactly easy to remember.
[22:49] <daftykins> and why confuse a new user?
[22:49] <labeeb32> yup
[22:49] <k1l> tgm4883: that is another brick in the wall against those idiots, yes
[22:49] <jq-> What is a good pci/pci-e ethernet card that works OOB for ubuntu server?
[22:50] <Finetundra> ubuntu minimal doesn't see my hard drive. what do id od
[22:50] <genii> jq-: Pretty much anything with an Intel chipset
[22:50] <genii> jq-: Broadcoms are to be avoided.
[22:51] <geirha> daftykins: How does it confuse?
[22:51] <daftykins> Finetundra: some kind of special setup?
[22:51] <jq-> genii: Ok, I'll have to look into an intel one. Thanks.
[22:51] <labeeb32> man... i just want my data safe
[22:51] <daftykins> geirha: for a user that's already asking about what to enter, it's best to keep it simple is all ;)
[22:51] <Finetundra> daftykins, it's just an ide hdd attached to to the approite port
[22:52] <daftykins> appropriate? :)
[22:52] <daftykins> is this some kind of old system?
[22:52] <geirha> daftykins: *shrug* the ip command is easier to find the ip address in
[22:52] <daftykins> geirha: alright, nevermind
[22:52] <geirha> two lines instead of twenty-ish
[22:53] <labeeb32> lol
[22:53] <Finetundra> daftykins, yes it is an older system.
[22:53] <apathyBOV> Can someone help me with my ubuntu which im running in virtual box?
[22:53] <daftykins> Finetundra: why are you using minimal?
[22:53] <CoC_towlie> !ask | apathyBOV
[22:53] <Bashing-om> jq-: I am running :  Accton Technology Corporation >> product: SMC2-1211TX , workie great .
[22:54] <Finetundra> daftykins, because it won't load a standard image of anything properly
[22:54] <apathyBOV> How do I get my ubuntu running in virtual box to go full screen? When I do full screen I just get a small rectangle with black all around
[22:54] <EriC^^> apathyBOV: did you install the guest additions iso?
[22:54] <daftykins> Finetundra: what's the spec of this thing?
[22:54] <tgm4883> apathyBOV: you need to install the virtualbox guest additions
[22:55] <dagerik> how can I inspect cron daemon logs? I tried service cron log
[22:55] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, you need to install vbox guest additions
[22:55] <apathyBOV> I did not install the guest additions
[22:55] <oeuvre> hi kids
[22:55] <oeuvre> time to sudo apt-get install windows95
[22:55] <EriC^^> dagerik: they should be in /var/log/syslog
[22:55] <violinappren> apathyBOV: install guest additions
[22:55] <apathyBOV> Can someone help me with that? This is my first time using virtual box and ubuntu
[22:55] <labeeb32> lol
[22:55] <oeuvre> replace ubuntu with a proper OS
[22:55] <EriC^^> oeuvre: lovely sentiment
[22:55] <oeuvre> thank you
[22:56] <tgm4883> oeuvre: 2edgy4me
[22:56] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, with the machine up click host+d. that should fix it
[22:57] <EriC^^> apathyBOV: click on the devices in the global menu, and select insert guest additions iso
[22:57] <apathyBOV> Thanks Finetundra
[22:57] <dagerik> How do I make the cron damon use msmtp. Help
[22:57] <Finetundra> daftkyins, 160gb ide hdd, 2.5 gb RAM, 2x2.0ghz processors, integrated video(really cruddy is the best i know)
[22:57] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, anytime
[22:57] <jq-> genii: I have one of these: http://www.microcenter.com/product/395030/1-Port_Ethernet_PCIe_Adapter but for some reason I'm not getting any connection. I'm getting assigned a localip from my router, but I can't ssh to it and not getting any internet access.
[22:58] <apathyBOV> EriC^^, I saw a tutorial that mentioned that, but my global menu isn't showing on my VM
[22:58] <daftykins> Finetundra: is it some kind of server?
[22:58] <Finetundra> daftykins, yes
[22:58] <violinappren> jq-: route -n
[22:58] <EriC^^> apathyBOV: it should be in the top left corner
[22:58] <violinappren> jq-: and check if the gateway and mask are correct
[22:59] <EriC^^> apathyBOV: if you go full screen ( host + f ) it shows up at the center at the bottom
[22:59] <Finetundra> daftykins, although specs are not default listed
[22:59] <daftykins> Finetundra: make + model?
[22:59] <genii> jq-: "Specs" page doesn't say what chipset, unfortunately.
[22:59] <CoC_towlie> apathyBOV, do you have interent in your guest?
[22:59] <jq-> genii: I found a driver on the manufacturers site which had me dl r8168-8.019.00.tar.bz2
[22:59] <Finetundra> daftykins, IBM eServer xSeries 225 type 8647
[22:59] <CoC_towlie> you can also just do this sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-dkms virtualbox-guest-utils virtualbox-guest-x11
[23:00] <jq-> So I'd assume realtek r8168 o.O
[23:00] <veebull> howdy
[23:00] <Finetundra> daftykins, current specs are not stock
[23:00] <Finetundra> *not all stock
[23:00] <veebull> recently (today) installed 14.10 over 14.04, on hardware that I've been using since ~12.10 or so.
[23:01] <genii> jq-: So looks like Realtek chipset from the driver name.
[23:01] <apathyBOV> I did the host + d like Finetundra recommended, and the console opened up and did something
[23:01] <apathyBOV> It didn't fix my problem though
[23:01] <veebull> Keep getting kernel oops messages, and I can't reliably connect to my second HDD (laptop).
[23:01] <juniour> hi
[23:01] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, once the console has finished you'll need to restart
[23:01] <veebull> I keep getting this message:
[23:01] <jq-> genii: Yeah, I just don't know like any terminal commands to mess with ethernet stuff. I've never had a network card not just work on ubuntu-server lol
[23:01] <veebull> monte@machin-shin:~$ cd /srv/data
[23:01] <veebull> bash: cd: /srv/data: Transport endpoint is not connected
[23:01] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, the VM
[23:02] <apathyBOV> Ok
[23:02] <veebull> any ideas?
[23:02] <juniour> hi
[23:02] <jq-> genii: Seems like it's working now. Swapped it into a different pci-e slot. Very strange.
[23:02] <violinappren> veebull: is that a remote filesystem?
[23:02] <daftykins> Finetundra: can you drop to a shell and poke around a bit?
[23:03] <apathyBOV> Sweet
[23:03] <apathyBOV> Thanks guys
[23:03] <genii> jq-: Could be another adapter pre-empting it
[23:03] <Finetundra> apathyB0V, anytime
[23:03] <dagerik> how can I make anacron use msmtp to send email
[23:03] <Finetundra> daftykins, yep, just tell me what to look for
[23:04] <daftykins> Finetundra: well, presumably you see nothing at all from "sudo fdisk -l" or "sudo parted -l" ?
[23:04] <jonatasbaldin> hi guys
[23:04] <jq-> genii: Only other adapter I have is the onboard on the mobo, but I have that disabled in bios cause it doesn't work :P
[23:04] <jonatasbaldin> does someone uses nfs local mirror for ubuntu installation via pxe?
[23:04] <veebull> violinappren: no, second HDD mounted as ntfs because it needs to be accessible to both OSes (dual-boot laptop)
[23:04] <jonatasbaldin> astebin.com/UT22PeFy
[23:04] <labeeb32> ok. me again. now i have booted ubuntu 12.04 and it doesnt show me my data.
[23:04] <Finetundra> daftykins, the installer says it can't find the hdd
[23:05] <Finetundra> daftykins, so yes i guess so
[23:05] <jonatasbaldin> I'm using this options: http://pastebin.com/UT22PeFy and it's asking to insert the cd-rom in the instalation
[23:05] <k1l> labeeb32: what does "sudo fdisk -l" tell you?
[23:05] <violinappren> veebull: it's probably using a fuse-based driver, see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24966676/transport-endpoint-is-not-connected
[23:05] <k1l> labeeb32: put the output into a pastebin please
[23:05] <daftykins> Finetundra: i'm more after proof than belief :)
[23:05] <labeeb32> ok
[23:05] <Finetundra> daftykins, well i just turned the thing off so you'll have to give me a sec
[23:06] <veebull> violinappren: Well, nuts.  Kinda wishing I didn't "upgrade" my system if its an ongoing problem for a couple months now.
[23:07] <violinappren> veebull: search  existing bugs on launchpad, if not report it
[23:08] <Bashing-om> jq-: I have been around a bit, and I have seen with the Realtek 8168 requires updated bios to work .
[23:08] <daftykins> Finetundra: are you sure this disk is detected in the server's BIOS ok?
[23:09] <oeuvre> <3
[23:09] <veebull> violinappren: well... that doesn't seem to fix things.  Rebooting only fixes it for a very short (<15 minutes) time.
[23:10] <labeeb32> http://pastebin.com/1k2pMcVn
[23:10] <Finetundra> daftykins, i thought so but i'll look again
[23:10] <violinappren> veebull: any relevant messages in kern.log or sys.log ?
[23:10] <daftykins> labeeb32: it's a lower case L, not a 1 :)
[23:10] <k1l> labeeb32: its a small L at the end, not a 1
[23:10] <jq-> Bashing-om: Well my bios is 1 version behind cause the board I'm using was from an old hackintosh of mine that didn't like the newest bios :P
[23:11] <solsTiCe> hi. how can I manually download a package from ubuntu 15.04 ? I mean, how do I go to an http repo of ubuntu
[23:11] <labeeb32> oh sorry
[23:11] <labeeb32> wait
[23:11] <labeeb32> plz
[23:11] <k1l> solsTiCe: mixing repos might get you in more trouble :/
[23:11] <EriC^^> solsTiCe: 15.04?
[23:11] <solsTiCe> just one package. libXext. it's to fix a bug
[23:12] <k1l> solsTiCe: packages.ubuntu.com
[23:12] <EriC^^> ah we can do that now cause 14.10 is out
[23:12] <Guest93850> Hello! I'm a beginner, I want to know how cant I access the computer device in ubuntu console?
[23:12] <jonatasbaldin> guys? :c
[23:12] <daftykins> Guest93850: "the computer device" ?
[23:13] <labeeb32> http://pastebin.com/Hhz8WgFi
[23:13] <Guest93850> like My Computer in Windows
[23:13] <EriC^^> Guest93850: tricky
[23:13] <Finetundra> daftykins, it looks like the cord was out just enough to look in but be out!
[23:13] <daftykins> Finetundra: :)
[23:13] <EriC^^> Guest93850: what exactly do you want?
[23:13] <k1l> Guest93850: can you give more details? what do you want to do? what did you try? what error came up? what ubuntu are you on?
[23:13] <daftykins> Finetundra: i like the simple ones
[23:14] <daftykins> Guest93850: Linux doesn't work that way
[23:14] <Finetundra> daftykins, so do i
[23:14] <EriC^^> Guest93850: linux uses a file system hierarchy, starting at "/" and has other directories
[23:14] <labeeb32> http://pastebin.com/Hhz8WgFi
[23:14] <Guest93850> I want to access the folder var
[23:14] <EriC^^> Guest93850: you type cd /var
[23:14] <veebull> violinappren: Does this count?
[23:14] <dagerik> how do I configure my system to use msmtp?
[23:15] <veebull> Nov  4 14:56:35 machin-shin kernel: [  234.149761] note: mount.ntfs[788] exited with preempt_count 2
[23:15] <violinappren> veebull: the latest available version of ntfs-3g seems much recent that the packages in ubuntu http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download/
[23:15] <k1l> labeeb32: did you try to open the filebrowser "nautilus" and see if there is something on the left side like windows or partition
[23:15] <Guest93850> Oh it works! Thx!
[23:15] <solsTiCe> k1l: ok. htnaks
[23:15] <veebull> veebull: one would wonder why that is, on a non-LTS release...?
[23:15] <labeeb32> there is just system and home folders of ubuntu
[23:16] <Finetundra> daftykins, i think that's the second time i've come here to find that something was loose
[23:16] <labeeb32> like video music documents etc
[23:16] <EriC^^> Guest93850: no problem!
[23:16] <veebull> violinappren: one would wonder why that is, on a non LTS release...?
[23:16] <Blaster> My Ubuntu server's booting is stuck on Starting configure network device.  How can I fix this?
[23:16] <daftykins> Finetundra: ah-ha, then next time when you think "hey i'll jump on IRC..." think "ah-ha, i must check all cables"
[23:17] <violinappren> veebull: i suspect licensing issues..
[23:17] <afrokarlsson> saatan sünnib, kui mees ronib samal päeval üles voolavast magmast titaankostüümis siis ronib üles ühest kahest või kolmest kosest
[23:17] <OerHeks> ubuntu irc estonia
[23:18] <EriC^^> !ee | afrokarlsson
[23:18] <Finetundra> daftykins, i think thats an apt analysis
[23:18] <k1l> labeeb32: what happens if you try to mount /dev/sda2 manually?
[23:19] <labeeb32> there is some problem with mount. when i enter sytem, it gives me this error. Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 14: Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
[23:20] <Bashing-om> jq-: Do not know what I can say, took me a bit to find that thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2158793&page=3 , but it did take a bios update to get the driver to work.
[23:20] <k1l> labeeb32: ah ok. what happend to that windows system before? is it hibernated?
[23:20] <labeeb32> i dont know. ubuntu 10.04 showed me allright.
[23:20] <labeeb32> but both 12.04 and 14.04 did not
[23:21] <k1l> labeeb32: that was not what i asked
[23:21] <labeeb32> i dont know if it was hibernate
[23:21] <labeeb32> d
[23:21] <k1l> labeeb32: i asked if that windows is just in hibernation? or if that is not shut down properly.
[23:21] <k1l> labeeb32: can you boot into that windows?`which windows is that?
[23:21] <labeeb32> i see now. i think its not properly shut down
[23:22] <labeeb32> i can boot but there are no graphics, just black screeen. windows 10 preview.
[23:22] <dysoco> C
[23:22] <EriC^^> labeeb32: boot into it and restart, as shutting down will hibernate it
[23:24] <labeeb32> how can i restart, when i cant see a thing. i have to eep pressing power button till it turns off.
[23:24] <squinty> labeeb32: iirc, the Windows 10 install disk has a repair option right on the main screen
[23:24] <labeeb32> it doesntrepair
[23:24] <daftykins> k1l: labeeb32 you could force mount, but it wouldn't be without risk.
[23:24] <daftykins> labeeb32: why are you using important data on a Windows preview OS?
[23:25] <labeeb32> i have only one laptop
[23:25] <labeeb32> lol
[23:25] <daftykins> this is what virtualisation is for
[23:25] <k1l> labeeb32: you can try to use ntfsfix on that partition. but there is a possible data loss risk. so if you can get windows to repair it that would be more safe
[23:26] <b43> is there a way to disable recent file list on mtpaint, or at least clear the list??
[23:26] <EriC^^> labeeb32: does it restart with ctrl+alt+del ?
[23:26] <labeeb32> i cant repair it
[23:26] <labeeb32> lemme try eric
[23:26] <daftykins> labeeb32: why not?
[23:27] <b43> anybody have any idea of a workaround??
[23:27] <labeeb32> yes it restarted with alt ctrl del
[23:27] <EriC^^> what's mtpaint?
[23:27] <labeeb32> is it now out of hibernation
[23:27] <b43> graphics editor
[23:27] <b43> on lubuntu
[23:27] <EriC^^> labeeb32: no idea, depends on whether it booted in or not
[23:28] <veebull> violinappren: looking a bit at the ntfs-3g page on launchpad... 13.10 and 14.04 (both of which worked relatively fine) had essentially the same release of ntfs-3g as 14.10.  Kind of thinking that it (ntfs-3g) might not be the culprit.
[23:28] <EriC^^> b43: you can try to remove it's file in your home directory
[23:29] <b43> which folder?
[23:29] <EriC^^> b43: try cd ~/.mtpaint or something and see what's there
[23:29] <b43> ok hold on let me try
[23:29] <violinappren> veebull: too many layers from libc all way down to the kernel version, i say uninstall the system supplied version and try the one from the website
[23:30] <labeeb32> tell me how can i repair windows?
[23:30] <k1l> labeeb32: i said above
[23:30] <EriC^^> labeeb32: what's wrong with it in the first place?
[23:30] <dagerik> anacron is successfully invoking msmtp because the /var/sbin/sendmail is symlinked to msmtp. But I need to add an command line option to msmtp. Help?
[23:31] <k1l> labeeb32: we cant fix your windows. that would be the task of the windows support.
[23:31] <veebull> violinappren: Honestly, I'd planned on this being a relatively quick and painless upgrade.  If I have to rebuild the transmission on a new car, I'd just return the dang thing and get my old car back.  If I have to gut the ntfs software the very first day and rebuild it with something else, I'm sorely tempted to just re-install 14.04.
[23:31] <xlogin> Test Message
[23:31] <b43> theres no mtpaint folder in the home directory
[23:31] <b43> no idea where to find it, mtpaint came with the lubuntu installation
[23:32] <labeeb32> i tried to install windows 8.1 pro but it gave me the error setup cant find hard for temporary installation files. imoved back and booted again into preview but there is no display. i really dont know how to recover display
[23:32] <EriC^^> b43: try sudo find / -iname "*mtpaint*"
[23:32] <k1l> labeeb32: we dont, too.
[23:32] <labeeb32> i cannot install any windows now
[23:32] <Watcher_> exit
[23:32] <labeeb32> unless i format hard disk
[23:32] <b43> ok hold on
[23:33] <EriC^^> labeeb32: get the win10 iso and try to repair it
[23:33] <b43> ok it says no such file or directory
[23:33] <EriC^^> b43?
[23:33] <EriC^^> if it doesn't find anything it shouldn't say anything
[23:34] <b43> weird, everytime i open mtpaint its on the drop down list
[23:34] <b43> even has a keyboard shortcut per file
[23:34] <b43> i dont even want it storin a list of recent files yet alone a keyboard shortcut per file
[23:34] <EriC^^> heh :D
[23:35] <EriC^^> b43: did you try the sudo find command>
[23:35] <b43> yes i did, came back with no such file or directory
[23:35] <b43> i have no idea where the default programs that came with the os r stored
[23:35] <b43> or what folders i mean
[23:36] <EriC^^> what command did you enter
[23:36] <EriC^^> and what did it return
[23:36] <squinty> b43: type in terminal    locate mtpaint
[23:36] <note> hi
[23:36] <b43> ok ill try locate
[23:36] <labeeb32> i have a question. why did ubuntu 10.04 showed my hard?
[23:36] <b43> i tried the find command that u gave earlier
[23:37] <k1l_> labeeb32: it has nothing to do with the ubuntu version.
[23:37] <b43> ok i see the folders where mtpaint is
[23:37] <b43> what filetype should i look for, for the recent files?
[23:37] <labeeb32> but that version showed mebut this doesnt
[23:37] <note> how can i view my ubuntu apache server over the internet
[23:37] <k1l_> labeeb32: when did you try 10.04?
[23:37] <EriC^^> b43: what's the list?
[23:37] <squinty> b43: try   which mtpaint    or   whereis mtpaint
[23:37] <daftykins> note: forward port 80 to your system's LAN IP on your router
[23:37] <labeeb32> about 5hours back
[23:37] <k1l_> note: enter your ip in a browser
[23:37] <daftykins> note: your system will need to be using a static IP address though
[23:38] <b43> locate mtpaint worked, i see the folders where their stored
[23:38] <k1l_> labeeb32: what happend in the meantime?
[23:38] <violinappren> note: using your external ip, make sure the port is open in  your machine firewall and forwarded on your router
[23:38] <Finetundra> is grub required to boot?
[23:38] <note> i tried but faild
[23:38] <b43> but i need to kno what kind of file type the recent files list r stored in so i can delete it
[23:38] <note> i use noip.com
[23:38] <labeeb32> someone in ubuntu tld me to use ubuntu 12.04 so that samba updates can b used
[23:39] <violinappren> Finetundra: a boot loader is required to boot, grub is just the most popular one, other alternatives include lilo (a much older one) and a the kernel built-in stub loader
[23:40] <k1l_> labeeb32: ok. what do you want to do? erase that windows? because we cant repair your windows so it works again. that would be the task of the windows support
[23:40] <EriC^^> b43: paste them in paste.ubuntu.com
[23:40] <violinappren> note: in a terminal: dig yourdomain.noip.com
[23:40] <b43> ok hold on
[23:40] <curt> hey guys, Ive been having trouble with nvidia drivers on my laptop, I discovered is uses optimus and ive started with a fresh install of 14.04 using this guide http://xmodulo.com/install-configure-nvidia-optimus-driver-ubuntu.html
[23:40] <violinappren> note: does it resolve to your external IP correctly?
[23:41] <curt> but when I run the install command nothing happens, there are no drivers at all under the additional driver tab
[23:41] <labeeb32> ok. then ill come here after ive had my window fixed.
[23:41] <EriC^^> b43: you can try to search for the filename of the recent files, if you're lucky it might call them the same name
[23:41] <note> you mean ping?
[23:41] <curt> normally with a fresh install there is nouveaux as well as 331 and 331 update I believe
[23:41] <violinappren> note: no, i mean the command as i wrote it  "dig"
[23:41] <Finetundra> violinappren just wondering
[23:41] <violinappren> !who | note
[23:42] <k1l_> labeeb32: i hear you talk about you wanted to install windows8.1, then that you wanted to repair windows10,... i dont see the point where ubuntu comes in
[23:42] <k1l_> labeeb32: if you want to install ubuntu just wipe the disk and install it
[23:42] <note> yes
[23:42] <labeeb32> i cant install windows 8.1
[23:42] <labeeb32> andi cant wipe my hard
[23:42] <violinappren> Finetundra: I actually miss the  days of simple configuration of LILO, it used to be the default bootloader 10  years ago or so
[23:42] <b43> pasted, do i paste url here, or am i gettin kick banned?

[23:43] <Finetundra> labeeb32, just back the blasted thing up and then wipe it
[23:43] <EriC^^> b43: you can try sudo find / -type d -iname "*mtpaint*" -exec grep -r <filename> '{}' \;
[23:43] <squinty> b43: you can show your paste url here
[23:43] <EriC^^> that should search for the filename in the directories that have mtpaint

[23:43] <b43> ok heres the url
[23:43] <b43> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8826598/
[23:44] <Finetundra> violinappren, truth is that i may well have to install lilo as grub like to display at an odd resolution
[23:44] <Finetundra> for my system
[23:44] <note> what next
[23:44] <b43> is it mtpaint.list??
[23:44] <squinty> cat mtpaint.list  will tell you
[23:44] <note> what is dig surpose to print?
[23:45] <EriC^^> b43: no that pertains to the package stuff
[23:45] <violinappren> Finetundra: check /etc/default/grub
[23:45] <b43> ok, so where do i find the recent files list?
[23:45] <EriC^^> try /usr/share/menu/mtpaint
[23:45] <EriC^^> b43: try cat /usr/share/menu/mtpaint
[23:45] <b43> ok let me check, hold on
[23:45] <tafa2> could not find module name cc_ubuntu_init_switch anyone seen this?
[23:45] <dagerik> im getting Warning: The following processes are using suspicious files: Pathname: /usr/bin/crontab  How do I whitelist this in rkhunter.conf?
[23:46] <Finetundra> violinappren, yes, i know. i just think lilo would probably be easier
[23:47] <note> violinappren: what is dig surpose to print
[23:47] <violinappren> note: your external ip, if it's being pushed correctly to noip
[23:48] <note> violinappren: no
[23:48] <b43> a weird text file opened n theres nothing on it about recent files list
[23:48] <violinappren> note:  if "ANSWER: 0" then it's not pushed correctly
[23:48] <violinappren> note: check the demon that's supposed to be pushing your ip
[23:49] <note> violinappren:  like duc?
[23:49] <b43> no recent files list on that mtpaint
[23:50] <EriC^^> b43: get a filename in the recent list
[23:50] <EriC^^> and go to your home dir and type grep -r <filename>
[23:50] <b43> so i have to delete the actual file?? omg
[23:51] <EriC^^> b43: no, -r is for recursive here
[23:51] <b43> oh ok, just makin sure
[23:51] <violinappren> note: yes
[23:52] <b43> it says no such file or directory, thats from the home directory
[23:53] <EriC^^> b43: it shouldn't return anything
[23:53] <EriC^^> what exactly are you typing?
[23:53] <EriC^^> can you paste the 2 lines here?
[23:53] <note> violinappren: ok now when i enter my noip domain , it takes me to my router but i want my webserver.
[23:54] <note> violinappren: ubuntu server
[23:54] <b43> 2 lines from the mtpaint txt file??
[23:54] <k1l_> note: do you have a proper forward from the router to that server?
[23:54] <b43> or 2 lines from where?
[23:54] <EriC^^> b43: from the terminal
[23:54] <EriC^^> b43: did you check the preferences of mtpaint btw?
[23:54] <k1l_> note: most routers call that a "dmz"
[23:54] <b43> its only 1 line
[23:55] <b43> yea i checked the preferences from within mtpaint, has nothing with recent files to tweak
[23:55] <note> violinappren: not port forwarding?
[23:55] <b43> um wait, i think i see the issue, the file name has a space in it, n from what i kno terminal dont do spaces very well
[23:56] <violinappren> Finetundra: I just booted with LILO now, so retro!
[23:56] <k1l_> b43: make a \ infront of that space
[23:56] <genii> Geez, LILO
[23:56] <EriC^^> b43: yeah, you can use quotes if you want
[23:56] <EriC^^> grep -r "file name"
[23:56] <b43> ok
[23:56] <k1l_> like "this\ is\ a\ space"
[23:56] <b43> i think the quotes would be easier
[23:57] <b43> but ill try both
[23:57] <minas114> for some reason my task manager (monitor) does not display the title bar
[23:57] <k1l_> b43: not both at same time
[23:57] <b43> ok it accepted the command both times, with quotes n with back slash, but it didnt show what it actually did
[23:58] <EriC^^> b43: so it returned nothing?
[23:58] <EriC^^> try the find command
[23:58] <b43> it returned nothing, but it didnt return any error
[23:58] <EriC^^> sudo find / -type d -iname "*mtpaint*" -exec grep -r <filename> '{}' \;
[23:58] <b43> ok
[23:58] <EriC^^> also use quotes for filename
[23:58] <note> violinappren: my server ip is 10.0.1.50  how do i forward it
[23:59] <violinappren> note: open the router configuration web interface, depending on the model, you should find an option there to forward connections to a given port to a specific machine and port
