[00:06] note: your apache configuration has no effect at all on your network configuration [00:07] b43: type (or copy and paste) the following sudo updatedb && locate mtpaint [00:07] b43: that command has nothing to do with updating system files. it updates the database which includes all the file names on your system [00:07] note: it doesnt matter if your use apache or any other server listening on the port, what matters is that the port is forwarded correctly, noip is setup correctly and the packets are getting through [00:08] ahh ok [00:08] hold on [00:09] b43: if all you are interested in accomplishing is deleting a "recent files" listing, the program bleachbit maybe able to accomplish that for you. it is very similar in nature to ccleaner (windows program) for cleaning up unwanted files etc [00:09] updatedb: can not open a temporary file for '/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db' [00:10] bleachbit, ok i will look into that [00:10] thx for the help yall, that would be much easier so i dont have to manually do it each time [00:10] b43: sudo updatedb [00:11] what does the "cil" parts means in libgtk3.0-cil ?

[01:30] ok i will try to learn how because i dont know nothing about backups in linux [01:31] Airbander: ^^ +1 ! .. There is no need to ever back up system files .

[01:40] h4kriX, that's a good lead, thanks. should help me trace my way to the app i'm thinking of when i have some spare googling cycles [01:41] jimmy51_, Generally a setup that is using software from the ubuntu repos only and updated has no issue. Are there broken packages seen if you run a apt-get update/dist-upgrade and are there 3rd party repos? [01:42] bubbasaures: I verified there aren't any 3rd party repos. the only one there ever has been was virtualbox, but it's an Atom PC so that didn't go well and I removed and disabled the repo. [01:42] I tried to remove a package mentioned as broken and saw apt-get complain about unmet dependencies etc. [01:42] jimmy51_, Did you run a purge on these so the ubuntu repos were called for their packages? [01:43] i did apt-get purge -y --force-yes virtualbox-3.0 [01:43] and then the ones listed in the unmet dependencies gripe [01:43] jimmy51_, was this a ppa? [01:43] virtualbox one? [01:43] yes [01:43] jimmy51_, any you removed? [01:44] # deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian karmic non-free # disabled on upgrade to karmic [01:44] hello, everyone.

[01:46] jimmy51_, Can you pastebin running sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [01:46] jimmy51_: IF there is no package in the repository to revert to, then ppa-purge is the wrong tool. One is at the mercy of the author to remove a non-ubuntu application. [01:48] just trying to figure out the wall of errors and broken packages [01:48] bubbasaures: ok... running now. it will take a few minutes [01:49] After installing gdevilspie, I found that a patch was required. So, as per : https://www.debinux.de/2014/03/gdevilspie-attribute-xdg_config_home/ I obtained and applied the patch. Now gdevilspie does start; but, even though I tick the box to have the daemon start when the application starts, a line in the application says that the daemon is not running every time I launch it. I ultimately have to click the "Start" button to s [01:49] time I launch. Is there some way to fix this? [01:51] And, does anyone know what affect this might have on the application's performance? I have no desire to spend hours tweaking stuff through this application only to have to open it and click "Start" before the settings are applied.

Does anyone know how to watch a streaming ( live) Video in VLC or other app? I hate watching live TV in the browser, like If I am streaming a live football game or something I would love to just watch it in VLC. I know VLC supports it but I have no idea on how to get the link or URL of the actual strea, [02:14] bubbasaures: jimmy51_ IF all virualbox files are gone, maybe we can hazard to edit the status file, is what I am considering working up to. [02:15] actually.... i think i may have just solved the vbox part. i just added the repo back, installed it, and purged it [02:15] now apt-get dist-upgrade is coming clean. [02:15] ;) [02:15] do-dist-upgrade is still bombing with the broken packages though :( [02:15] jimmy51_: bubbasaures shucks, " No such file or directory "; control files do not exist.

I'm using Kubuntu. [02:50] by the way. [02:50] diego_: It is always a good thing to have good backups, IF it is your goal to copy off persomal files, from the liveDVD the file manager can do that . [02:51] personal* [02:51] #python [02:51] I have a USB boot drive. [02:52] Would that do? [02:53] diego_: Sure, what release is the usb boot drive ?

I'm drag it, then https://clbin.com/rkeeED.png === sins-_p is now known as sins- [02:54] always can see the bookmarks name, "repository", how to remove it? [02:54] diego_: If you can not drag and drop all the files you need from the file manager, will have to install "gksu" to elevate privileges (no biigy) . [02:54] Does the regular Ubuntu 14.04 desktop (using unity) - does it use lightdm for login/login screen? If not what is the name for it? [02:55] @Bashing-om should I open a different chat tab? I'm sort of a beginner. [02:55] imastupidguest: yes, lightdm [02:55] diego_: NO, keep in channel, for peer review and instruction for all . [02:56] In other words, does this apply to me (with a defaulat 14.04 desktop install)? --> http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/ubuntu-14-04-change-login-screen-background-remove-the-white-dots/ [02:56] ^default [02:56] diego_: do you know what data on the install you want to backup to the usb drive ? [02:57] I can only get the Desktop Env from the USB, but without it I'm using the tty's. [02:58] Bashing-om Yes, I just need my Home folder. I guess the rest I can reinstall. =S [02:58] Oh, I think I found my answer - sorry. [02:58] diego_: I am not familiar with the (K)ubuntu desk top (GUI) but there are those here that are, we can try and fix the GUI . [02:59] But could anyone more experienced look at the instructions at that link and tell me if it looks right to do or if it may break something? [02:59] I am happy to do that too. [03:00] k1l_: I'm so bad - I didn't see your response until now. I'm so sorry. [03:00] diego_: What happened to break your GUI ? [03:01] Bashing-om_: I think it was removing and reinstalling MySQL Workbench. [03:02] how can i see what graphics i am using with terminal..in software center, additional software shows i am using nvidia, but why is xorg still hogging so much cpu resources (have top in the background). [03:02] Bashing-om_: It's weird, but I can't think of anything else that could have done it. [03:03] could it be the VM using xorg? [03:03] Bashing-om_: Do you recommend to search in another chat room for KDE experts? [03:04] diego_: maybe #kubuntu ? [03:06] diego_: I am sure #kubuntu will have the greater familiarity, IF you do not get support there, we can sure try here . [03:06] diego_: Just keep in mind, it is 'buntu, it is fixable. [03:07] I'll give it a try. Cheers from Mexico! =) [03:07] Hello all! I am having issues getting my touch screen to work with xubuntu but it works with ubuntu either are 14.04. When I do xinput I see the device listed on both versions but on xubuntu it is non-responsive. [03:07] hi #ubuntu. while installing ubuntu 14.04 i accidentally used entire hard drive. my windows 8 is gone. i created a bootable flash drive for windows 8 but none of my usb ports are recognised. [03:07] Hi... every time I suspend and resume my laptop, my my synclient settings get reset... and I have to run a script to set them again... is theere a place I can put the script so it will get run whenever I resume + login ? [03:07] how do i fix this? [03:09] bashhike_, more a question for ##windows [03:09] or your vendor [03:11] Someone told me about an alternative to Bumblebee the other day. Does anyone know of it? [03:11] nvidia-prime poli [03:11] k1l_: thanks [03:14] no one is awake on vbox..does anyone know if i can upgrade the oracle graphics driver? i changed from nouveau to nvidia on 14.04 but xorg is still hogging all the cpu [03:15] if xorg is using all the cpu it means the linux drivers are still in use? [03:16] nusr, check if you can do some settings, more GPU memory, more systemmemory for the VM etc [03:17] 0erHeks: thanks. so updating graphics like how one would do with a real machine isn't how it's done normally? [03:17] Does ubuntu have a screen reader? [03:17] nusr correct [03:18] 0erHeks: gotcha..just checked the settings..stuck with oracle drivers [03:19] hi all.. can someone check why a package does *not* contain a file it advertises as included? === Joshua^Dunamis_i is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [03:21] @Bashing-om I'm not getting much response on that channel. Do you mind if we give it a try? =) [03:22] is there a lway to get lighdm-gtk-greeter to allow me to write to the root window? [03:22] lightdm-gtk-greeter [03:23] Is there a way to see if xinput is getting events from a device? [03:23] diego_: Sure, what returns from termomal command -> /etc/X11/default-display-manager <- so I know what we are working with for a display manager . [03:24] terminal* === Adran is now known as Madran [03:26] @Bashing-om There's not an X11 in /etc [03:26] diego_: Let me get my wires uncrossed then . I be back. [03:27] diego_, sure there is, it is a folder, not a file === Malsasa| is now known as Malsasa [03:29] @Bashing-om You're right. I cann't get default-display-manager to display anything [03:30] @Bashing-om I hope this is not too basic. [03:33] Good night, someone could help me how to remove the icon from the network that appears in the top bar [03:33] yes [03:33] nm-applet [03:33] look for it using top [03:33] kill it [03:34] I run this nm-applet terminal [03:35] diego_: Maybe the display manager is 'KDM' .. what results from the terminal when you try and start the desktop -> sudo service kdm start <- . [03:35] I am asking this because this two icons appearing on the network [03:36] ok [03:37] managed to kill the process, but after I reboot the machine it returned? [03:37] most likely [03:37] chmod -x nm-applet [03:38] I will restart my machine [03:40] @Bashing-om_: Unrecognized service. [03:41] anyone know how to install kali tools on ubuntu 14.10 [03:41] Bashing-om_: The closest is startkde which is also not installed but recommended through kde-workspace-bin [03:42] diego_: OK, so much for my knowledge, try to start it with -> startkde <- . [03:42] 5 [03:42] parragonx, the guys in #kali-linux may be a help, we do not support kali [03:42] !kali [03:42] Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [03:44] So which one should I go with for a new install bumblebee or nvidia-prime? I understand Bumblebee is being phased out, but nvidia-prime is not so easy to switch. Is that correct? [03:45] poli see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Basic_Setup_for_13.10_and_later [03:45] Bashing-om_: I think here is the tricky thing. It wasn't installed, and it wouldn't install it, because of the unmet dependencies. [03:45] Some packages could not be installed... [03:45] kde-workspace-bin: depends: plasma-desktop but it is not going to be installed. [03:45] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [03:46] Is it possible to downgrade to 10.04 from 12.10 [03:46] jason1: why? 10.04 is beyond any support [03:46] diego: sudo apt-get install -f [03:46] wafflej0ck: server [03:46] ah sorry [03:46] jason1 no, reinstall [03:46] OerHeks: thanks [03:47] diego_: OK. let's fix the packafe manager, small steps 1 at a time, install the tool 'pastbinit' -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit <- . to start witj. [03:48] with* [03:48] jason1: looks like it's still only supported till April 2015 though [03:48] jason1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS [03:49] Do ttl cables have different voltages? [03:49] ok [03:49] @Bashing-om: I still get an error. Could not resolve mx.archive.ubuntu.com [03:50] @Bashing-om: Even sudo apt-get update won't go through. [03:50] Why doesn't the hotspot use the infrastructure mode? [03:50] It uses adhooc. [03:51] @Chuck_Norris It gives me a list of packages that were automatically installed and are no longer required... a long list. [03:51] remove them [03:52] Android phones don't see adhoc. [03:52] OerHeks: actually I am trying to decide which one to go with, seems like bublebee is more versatile in changing graphic cards, am I correct? [03:53] then paste all the output that "sudo apt-get update" gave you, you gotta solve some gpg error i think -.- [03:53] diego_: *... [03:53] poli, i am not sure what you are saying, i have no hybrid gpu myself [03:54] hybrid works, or is a pain, i wouldn't buy such hardware [03:54] OerHeks: There are two competing solutions, and seems like no clear winner in selection. [03:55] i would go for nvidia-prime, as it is the latest development [03:55] Using the open-source AMD video driver, how can I switch between the discrete and integrated card? [03:56] OerHeks: That's probably my option too. Thanks for the help. [03:56] @Bashing-om_ @Chuck_Norris By the way, do you use @ for the messages to be highlighted? [03:56] diego_: Humm, this is going to be trying, with out the pastbin tool. To allow me to see the files, to advise you on the edits to make. Do you have an account on ubuntuforums.org ? [03:57] Vadi, not, only with the fglrx package and amd control panel, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics#Installation [03:57] diego_: Highlighting is done in your IRC client and no '@' is not done on IRC. [03:57] thanks [03:57] no, i dont, but i use "tab" for completing you nick, so you get feedbacks (although sometimes forget about it) xD [03:57] diego_: *... :p [03:59] Bashing-om: I do have an account. I'm not familiar with posting there, though =S [04:00] !paste | diego_ [04:00] diego_: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[04:01] oh! yeah he could do that, but with some help from here i guess [04:02] Surendil: diego_ Yeah, we been there. have to find a means to correct the sources.list file(s) . [04:04] Chuck_Norris: (Bashing-om:) Actually I can only copy a couple of lines manually because I'm on a different computer. [04:04] diego_: what's the error on gpg public key? === james is now known as Guest82362 [04:05] thanks jason1 [04:06] diego_: just copy those like begining with "Error" [04:07] Bashing-om: I can't get to ubuntuforums on the computer that I am stuck with. [04:07] Can someone help with a lightdm problem? [04:08] imastupidguest: explain the problem [04:08] i having trouble with tor not working on ubuntu.could someone help [04:08] Chuck_Norris: W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.nic.cz/R/bin/linux/ubuntu/trusty/InRelease [04:08] I followed an instruction to change my login screen's background and ended up with the same problem described in the following askubuntu post. I then followed the steps shown in the first answer in that post (including the extras at the end of it) and am still having the problem described by the op. [04:09] Surendil: ^ [04:09] sorry [04:09] Chuck_Norris: and many others like that, but can't get to the ones with Error [04:09] Surendil: http://askubuntu.com/questions/455849/unity-greeter-does-not-display-custom-wallpaper [04:10] did you edit sources.list or you just added PPAs? [04:10] diego_: if this is your problem, herr's your answer too.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8829624/ [04:10] here's [04:12] imastupidguest: what about logs? [04:12] hi again [04:13] Surendil: I'm not sure what to do. Not very exper in this. Can you instruct? [04:13] Surendil: Mine says 'Could not resolve 'repository.spotify.com', but nothing about a GPG Public Key [04:13] diego_: spotify is not a repository, that's why it doesn't work [04:13] saludos [04:13] diego_: edit /etc/apt/sources.list === bhushan is now known as Guest18052 [04:14] erase the line with the spotify server [04:14] and update [04:14] Chuck_Norris: I haven't edited sources.list. Only added a few PPA's though. [04:15] diego_: it's the same thing [04:15] antiunix: hi [04:15] Surendil: The whole line is [04:15] imastupidguest: most error are get recorded on /var/log/ [04:15] diego_: Surendil Check in the 3rd party directory ' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ' . [04:15] W: Failed to fetch http://repository.spotify.com/dists/stable/Release.gpg Could not resolve repository.spotiify.com [04:16] reisio, midnight ! [04:16] Surendil: But there's like 30 of those. [04:16] antiunix: is it? [04:16] ok then, for those PPAs giving you issues: sudo add-apt-repository -r "PPA" [04:16] diego_: ----^ [04:16] reisio, yes [04:17] ah [04:17] imastupidguest: most error go to syslog, but in this case, your problem is on lightdm...check /var/log/lightdm for errors [04:17] Surendil: I found something at /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log (I think that would be the most recent log?) but don't know what I'm looking at in it. [04:17] but only remove those PPAs related to software that you isnstalled [04:19] imastupidguest: paste the error on pastebin [04:19] I'm on 14.04.. I get spiking system load and/or iowait. I finally saw an actual IO error on /dev/sdc which is the SSD that ubuntu is stored on. But SMART on that, and every other drive, says "OK", on the SSD it says no uncorrectable sectors.. but all are in pre-fail or old age (even though it's new-ish, only powered on for 3months) but that's what the other SSD says, too. Any way to track this down..? [04:19] Surendil: ^ brother, I don't know what I'm looking at in the log but it can be seen at : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8829736/ [04:20] if you or someone else would be willing to take a peek [04:20] imastupidguest: no problem there [04:22] Bashing-om: Chuck_Norris: Surendil: I'm opening /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and get a list of repositories, should I do add-apt-repository -r "google-chrome-unstable.list" and others? [04:23] diego_: Google-chrome should not be a problem, leave it, [04:23] diego_: one problem at the time....first fix sources.list by removing or commenting everyline you find 'spotify repository' === Guest30431 is now known as dooglus === dooglus is now known as Guest13286 [04:25] Surendil: There aren't any specific repositories there. It's only like universe, multiverse, main restricted, partner, etc.. [04:25] diego_: /etc/apt/sources.list [04:26] Surendil: Yup, that one [04:28] diego_: and there's no line with 'repository.spotify.com'? [04:28] diego_: 3rd party software, to see what they are -> tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* < -. [04:29] Surendil: I found a different log (x-0=greeter.log) and in it I see a couple lines : "Making background /home/shine/Pictures/Backgrounds/free-from-the-curse.jpg at 1366x768" and the next line : "Error loading background: Failed to open file '/home/shine/Pictures/Backgrounds/free-from-the-curse.jpg': Permission denied" The perms on that file are : -rw-rw-r-- [04:29] What should I do? [04:30] Bashing-om: Surendil, Chuck_Norris I think I've only added repositories following OMGUbuntu or Webupd8team, which makes me think they aren't very risky. [04:30] ^ x-0-greeter.log ( I meant ) [04:30] Surendil: There's nothing in that file. Maybe I'm missing something. [04:31] imastupidguest: the problem is greater doens't have access to the pic, i guess it have root access, you should change the pic perms and that will be it [04:31] diego_: check what Bashing-om said [04:31] diego_: they arnt risky, but if a repository isnt updated for you ubuntu version, then you will have this kind of issues [04:31] Surendil: to what? [04:31] imastupidguest: to your user [04:32] or lightdm user [04:32] diego_: next time you should check PPAs in lauchpad and see if they are updated and working for your ubuntu version [04:32] surfdue: Oh,I'm sorry, I didn't understand the instruction about changing perms. The current owner and group are : myusername:myusername [04:33] Is that not right? [04:33] Surendil: Bashing-om It's a long file. It includes Opera, R-Base, Springseed, Steam, Webupd8-java and derivatives of those [04:33] The pic is located in my home dir [04:33] diego_: What we qll are trying to do is get it where the package management system is stable, so you can download the files to fix your system ( like re-install the desktop ) . We can for now dispense with 3rd party software in that endeavor. === Guest13286 is now known as dooglus [04:34] I have an idea to test maybe [04:34] idk [04:35] imastupidguest: if the pic has right perms, check forlders instead [04:35] diego_: Surendil For now, with a text editor, each and every source that shows an error when 'upgrade' is run; place a comment (#) character at the start of the line - that is commneting out the line so it dioes not get executed. [04:35] does* [04:35] Chuck_Norris: Surendil Bashing-om This is my first time getting help in IRC, so really this is Awesome. [04:35] Bashing-om: i know [04:36] Bashing-om: i don't have any problem with my repos [04:37] urthmover: I am sure you do, just so you also agree with the directive, and are aware of the directive. diego_ we are all in the loop here. get you fixed up. [04:38] Bashing-om: How can I see above the screen when there is no scroll bar? [04:39] diego_: You can not, as an alternative you can redirect the output to a file and with 'less' read the file that is prodeuced (??) . [04:39] diego_: shift+pg up | shift+pg down [04:40] produced* [04:41] diego_: ^^ YES Surendil has the right of it ! === leon is now known as Guest61752 [04:42] diego_: and also, like Bashing-om. you can send the output you want to a file. [04:42] Surendil: Bashing-om Right. So there are errors for -I think- every repository that I have. === Madran is now known as Adran [04:43] let's make things easier [04:43] Ok. I tried to install 14.10 on my new Alienware 17 and it was a 3 day lost fight. When I managed to get everything installed, kernel would soft and hard lock. I just installed 14.04 with great success and relative ease. Now comes the question: should I try to dist-upgrade? I have apt-btrfs-snapshot going, too. [04:43] diego_: you use ubuntu 14.04? [04:43] Surendil: Is this out of control? [04:44] diego_: no way [04:44] Surendil: I use Kubuntu 14.04 [04:44] diego_: just send you a private msg [04:44] Good to hear! =) [04:45] diego_: As a thouhgt, as there are so many errors .. do you even have internet access on the subject manchine ? what returns form ->ping -c3 google.com <- ? [04:46] I see. ping: unknown host google.com [04:47] diego_: Well .. You do not have DNS anyway .. try -> ping -c3 8.8.8.8 <- . [04:47] diego_: you are telling us, that your are not online? [04:48] or like Bashing-om said, no dns [04:48] =( Oh my! [04:48] Unreachable [04:48] diego_: iwconfig [04:48] Surendil: I found a way to make it work but I'd like to learn something about perms from this experience please. I cp the picture into /opt where the default perms after the cp were -rw-r--r-- 1 root root Can you explain (1) Why this works; and (2) What would have been the alternative way to do it using the pic located in my home dir? (exactly what would have had to be done to use that pic? chmod the thing to r [04:48] [wouldn't seem like a good idea]. Add root to my some group or something?) [04:50] Hmm... I notice that I can set the background using the pic in /opt (so only one copy needed anyway) [04:50] ahh, whatever [04:51] No wireless extensions, eth0, l0, wlan0 IEE 802.11bgn [04:51] imastupidguest: let me see some tutorial for ou to read [04:51] Surendil: Bashing-om [04:51] diego_: my friend, if you don't connect, it wont work at all [04:51] Surendil: thank you sir. Might as well learn something if I went through it all this far :) [04:53] imastupidguest: http://linuxcommand.org/lts0070.php | http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/309527-understanding-linux-file-permissions [04:55] Surendil: suppose I should have read the last half of that 8 yrs ago when I started with linux (DOH!). Thank you man. I'll check it out again mor thoroughly this time... :) [04:56] diego_: Surendil //Just how messed up is your system ? when did and how did you loose internet connections ? [04:58] wiiiiii......Adventure time season 6 downloaded [04:58] Any germans around? [04:59] Bashing-om: Surendil It never got connected because it didn't go through the start up. [05:01] diego_: How are you currently "booting to terminal " / we try and get networking up . [05:01] !de | Chrisss [05:01] Chrisss: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! [05:01] Surendil: Thanks, but I had another kind of question [05:01] I am a private investigator currently working on a case involving fraudlent Trip Advisor-reviews. I stumbled upon a german review, that I would like to know or at least get a hint if it is written by a native german speaker or not. I have reason to belive fishy in some way. [05:02] How can I install LXD or LCD ? [05:02] Any repositories ? [05:02] Bashing-om: I'm using tty1 [05:02] But my high-school german doesn't make up for that kind of judgement [05:02] Chrisss: i think ypu should connect to undernet server for this [05:02] Haha, maybe Surendil. But my experience is that folks here around are brighter. [05:03] Are you german by the way? [05:03] Chrisss: nope. nor bright either as far as i know [05:04] I am happy you took the time anyway. [05:04] Thanks. [05:04] Chrisss: no problem, good luck anyway [05:04] diego_: Accessing TTY1 from the grub boot menu ? [05:04] I suspect my ISP is throttling excessive HTTP requests. How can I confirm this. [05:04] I suspect it because a curl in a loop sleeps and averages to about 1 request per second. [05:05] Surendil Bashing-om: It opened the login page, accepted my password, and then froze in the splash screen. Then I did tty1 [05:06] Surendil: Bashing-om ping -c3 8.8.8 worked with the ethernet cable. [05:07] diego_: there's one 8 missing [05:07] that ip is fron google dns servers [05:07] Bashing-om: Surendil sudo apt-get update.... check [05:08] diego_: Wired is the way to go ! .. now how about -> sudo apt-get upgrade <- . [05:08] sudo apt-get upgrade -y [05:09] hi every one [05:11] Surendil: Bashing-om Upgrade... check. [05:11] diego -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit <- . [05:13] Bashing-om: Surendil wuuuuuu! had to share the excitement. === batur is now known as Batur [05:15] Bashing-om: Surendil Pastebinit is installed. [05:15] diego_: Outstanding, back to the original issue, the desktop. Do you have other desk tops instlled other than (K)ubuntu ? [05:15] Hi corey84- [05:16] jason1, hello [05:16] brb [05:16] np [05:16] Bashing-om: No, only kubuntu. following startkde, I got only 3 unmet dependencies. [05:18] diego_: OK, show us -> startkde | pastebinit <- in terminal will be produced a URL; pass that URL back to us so we can look at that produced file . [05:19] Also I found default-display-manager to be lightdm... hope I didn't do something wrong earlier today. [05:20] I honestly do not know that lightdm is a component of the KDE environment, we will learn . ( lightdm IS of unity and Lubuntu ) . [05:21] Bashing-om: also xubuntu [05:21] Bashing-om: Tried to install startkde, but got: [05:21] but like you said, kde uses gdm, right? [05:22] kde-workspace-bin : Depends: plasma-desktop but it is not going to be installed, and same for plasma-notebook and plasma-active [05:22] Surendil: Not real sure .. maybe like KDM for the disply manager . [05:22] plasma is like the new looks of kde. [05:23] diego_: check /var/log/lightdm logs for errors and use pastebinit if you find one [05:23] diego_: startkde is NOT a package but a script to start the dest top . show the url from -> startkde | pastebinit <- please. [05:24] dest/desk* [05:26] Bashing-om: The program is not installed. You are trying to send an empty document. [05:28] Surendil: Bashing-om I got a few logs on lightdm. Can I copy many of them? [05:28] diego_: do this....sudo -i [05:29] diego_: dpkg -l | grep -i desktop > 1.txt && pastebinit 1.txt [05:30] diego_: -> ls -al /usr/bin/startkde <- does that file exist ? [05:31] Bashing-om: It doesn't exist [05:31] diego_: then paste thee result [05:32] Bashing-om: Surendil http://paste.ubuntu.com/8830384/ [05:32] diego_: OK.. I got home work to do then to find out where the file to start kde is. === Tron is now known as Tron2X [05:35] diego_: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [05:35] already installed or installing?

[06:06] diego_: Again, what was the original package that you removed, that caused all this ? [06:06] Bashing-om: Surendil I still get the broken dependencies. [06:06] st1gma1: Should I create another device like "eth1" and assigned ip in the Class A? Then try to add route? [06:06] hariom: If you can be directly connected to that subnet, then yes, you can do that. [06:07] Bashing-om: I think mysql-workbench, when I was trying to do an upgrade. [06:07] st1gma1: But my server has only one NIC [06:07] i am still running 10.4.4 [06:07] *04 [06:08] diego_: I say "apt-get uninstall kde*" then "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" [06:08] diego_: Surendil I hate to bail out, but I am some kind of tired, and arthritis is getting the better of my fingers. How 'bout we continue this in my afternoon ? [06:08] hariom: How is this traffic from this other segment reaching your server? [06:09] hey guys what happened to the source command? [06:10] Bashing-om: What is your time now? [06:10] any good usb recovery softwares? [06:10] I am playing vendetta online. My FPS is low (~20) when I have resolution set to 1920X1080. My GPU and CPU usage are both below 70%, PCIe Bandwidth Utilization is at ~15% And the game is porperly using multithreading. What else could be causing the low FPS? [06:10] Hi guys! Could somebody tell me please, how to remove clocks from menu bar? (NOT Unity) // "gnome-shell --version 3.12.2" [06:10] Bashing-om: thank you.

[06:11] 3am [06:12] diego, reinstall kubuntu [06:12] morning to all [06:12] diego_: if you have /home in another partition, dekstop will be the same, you just need to reinstall app [06:13] hi [06:13] /whois bashing-om [06:15] Surendil: diego, originally diego_ wanted a means to copy off his files to USB, and I started this to try and fix the install .

I had fun and I learnt. If the new information makes it easier to backup and reinstall that's fine. [06:18] diego_: you could always try another dekstop env. [06:19] xfce works really good [06:19] diego_: apt-get install xubuntu.desktop [06:21] Surendil: I guess it's about time to open up to new options =) [06:22] Surendil: at least as a temporary solution if it works. [06:22] diego_: I agree [06:23] I am playing vendetta online. My FPS is low (~20) when I have resolution set to 1920X1080. My GPU and CPU usage are both below 70%, PCIe Bandwidth Utilization is at ~15% Ram is 75% used, and the game is porperly using multi threading. What else could be causing the low FPS? [06:24] dreki: another grafix driver [06:25] dreki: maybe tweak your system as much as you can, tweak swappiness to 10, install preload, etc [06:25] diego_: Surendil :: I am done for this session. I will return and check your status in anout 10 hours pr so . [06:26] dreki: test out other grafix drivers, make a bigger swap partition,.. [06:26] Bashing-om: Thank you. I'll be around.

[07:01] hateball, Since I upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 my YouTube videos have started to be pixelated, even when using HD.

[08:02] Tron2X: try "pwd" [08:02] and "ls" [08:03] DocPlatypus those both work. It's on an ntfs partition if that helps. [08:03] I can cd to a specific directory just fine. [08:03] reboot into Windows and chkdsk it [08:03] Don't have windows installed anymore. === Malsasa| is now known as Malsasa [08:05] does it need to stay NTFS? if not, get another drive, format it ext4, copy everything onto it (something like "cp -a /media/ABCD12345678EF01/* /media/new_ext4_drive" [08:05] ) [08:05] I'm in the process of moving stuff and I'll reformat it to ext4. [08:05] I was just curious why. [08:06] Yeah cd works everywhere else but that partition. [08:07] I think the underlying filesystem is sick [08:07] I had one suddenly go completely tits up with no warning... like 600 gigs of the 1T drive is inaccessible [08:07] if you don't chkdsk it under Windows every so often things like that happen [08:08] Yeah. I'm backing up the family photos now. ;) [08:09] If you are interested in voice recognition application on ubuntu I've developed an offline solution that use Pocketsphinx in order to create/use voice controlled application [08:09] my work is here: https://github.com/benoitfragit/pocketVox [08:10] loa: its not seeing the adhoc [08:11] A friend of mine sometimes asks for help. He uses Ubuntu 14.04. Teamviewer didn't work. What is the best/easiest way for a newbie to allow remote access to a Ubuntu box ? [08:12] hello room [08:13] hello mystery [08:13] goodbye mystery [08:14] john_rambo, Teamviewer should work. I use it both to and from Ubuntu boxes all the time. [08:15] Bergcube: When I tried teamviewer I got stuck at "Connecting" [08:15] aand stayed there forever [08:15] Any native solutions Bergcube [08:16] john_rambo, Several, especially if it is Ubuntu - Ubuntu you're connecting. Then the default Remote Desktop should do the trick. [08:17] Bergcube: Is port forwarding at the router level necessary ? and does he need to open a port using ufw ? [08:17] O mean the same por [08:17] port [08:18] john_rambo ~ I wish I had the know-how to give a definite answer there. But yes, I think you need to have the right ports open. [08:19] john_rambo: yes - if he's behind a router, there will be no connection between you and him. The connection is you...router...him. The router needs to know how to handle this [08:19] Okay .... I am trying Google now ....Thanks [08:19] john_rambo: remote desktop uses a port to connect, so logicaclly if a firewall blocks all ports it will be a problem [08:20] dx486: I am not on Ubuntu atm .... So I guess I will try n find out which port the remote desktop tool uses and then give him the command via facebook [08:30] how can I get native desktop notifications in chrome? [08:31] and how can I connect to my wireless wifi network? [08:31] It keeps asking for the password [08:31] on windows it works [08:32] why this code not work ? http://pastebin.com/qwtgv1HN [08:32] opsss [08:32] I found [08:32] your password is usaly the wep key or wpa key that is on your router AlexPortable [08:32] noting ... ! [08:32] Mathisen: I know. on windowsi t works fine [08:32] on ubuntu it just keeps asking for my password [08:33] for the wifi password* [08:34] AlexPortable: It asks me for the password repeatedly if I can't actually connect. [08:34] (like if the Internet is down or my wireless card is broken) [08:34] Well on windows it works fine, also for other people it works fine [08:34] AlexPortable: It works fine in general, or right this second? [08:35] It doesn't works for me on ubuntu [08:35] On windows it works [08:35] AlexPortable: Yes, but, are you sure it works on Windows right this second? [08:36] Yes [08:36] My coworkers are working [08:36] on the wifi connection [08:36] Okay, that's good. [08:37] AlexPortable try to delete the connection from the list then type this in a terminal " sudo service network-manager restart " [08:37] I did [08:37] rebooted 3 times [08:37] removed connection from list, tried another AP which is in the same network / area [08:37] AlexPortable: Are you able to download new wifi drivers on another computer, and move them to the Ubuntu computer? That's what I had to do with my wireless card. [08:37] Where can I download my wifi driver? [08:37] On other networks it works fine [08:38] Yeah to me it sounds like a driver issue. I've had had that happen to me before. [08:38] AlexPortable: Do you know what kind of wireless card you have? [08:38] I *think* you have to get card-specific drivers. [08:40] AlexPortable: Also, you could try connecting to the network from a Live CD; sometimes that helps to figure out the problem. [08:41] AlexPortable: Okay, here's a page on figuring out what wireless card you have. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1006786 [08:41] is there an equivalent to chkconfig --list in ubuntu? [08:42] how do i tell what services are started up in ubuntu? [08:42] How do I automatically close the terminal after running a command? [08:42] I want it to work on all commands and not manually doing && exit after each one [08:43] orfetheo: does the command need to keep running after the terminal is closed? [08:43] brucelee: Do you mean startup applications? http://www.howtogeek.com/189995/how-to-manage-startup-applications-in-ubuntu-14.04/ [08:43] looking for a command line tool [08:43] ActionParsnip: What I want to do is make something like a run box. Using for example guake terminal to summon it, run the program and it should automatically close [08:44] orfetheo: use ALT + F2 [08:44] I am not using unity and the mate-run-box is incredibly slow for some reason. I'd like a faster and sleeker approach like a terminal [08:45] brucelee: Maybe this? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chkconfig [08:45] orfetheo: with guake, you can add it to your startup items and it will run at logon [08:45] theres gotta be something built-in to ubuntu right? [08:45] or is this really something that ubuntu is lacking? [08:45] Charcoalcat: only for this wifi network? [08:45] Yes :) And I can open guake with a hotkey, run my program (for example gedit) and I want it to close immediately after that. [08:45] brucelee: service --status-all [08:45] orfetheo: install gmrun and make ALT+F2 launch that [08:46] Tron2X: nice, i see a bunch of +, ? and - [08:46] Should be running + and not running - [08:46] Charcoalcat: can it be because the SSID contains a dash? [08:46] thanks ActionParsnip, that one seems good :) [08:47] Orf [08:47] orfetheo: I use it in Openbox. Runs well [08:47] AlexPortable: I don't know anything about dashes preventing connections. [08:48] and a dot [08:48] orfetheo: is mate in the repos now? [08:48] the ssid is: SSID-2.4G [08:48] AlexPortable: http://askubuntu.com/questions/286915/cant-connect-to-specific-wifi-network Apparently you can try doing this. [08:48] all other networks connect fine [08:48] yep, just tried it. Awesome :) I'm using awesome WM, which has a great run box but because I'm using mate-panel instead of its wiboxes, I couldn't use it [08:48] AlexPortable: change the SSID and test. It costs nothing [08:48] Tron2X: what does the [-] and +, ? mean? [08:48] for example theres a - next to ssh [08:49] I'm not sure, I did add a repo for installing ubuntu-mate (I think some mate-core things are available in the official repos) [08:49] ActionParsnip: I can't, it's not my ssid [08:49] but ssh service is running [08:49] - means stopped and + means the service is started and ? means unknown [08:49] AlexPortable: I see [08:49] I think I have this issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/500052/cant-connect-to-one-wifi-network-keeps-asking-for-password [08:49] orfetheo: I see. Glad it worked :-) [08:49] "First remove all special characters from the network name." [08:49] AlexPortable: Is it possible to change some other ssid to have a stop and a dash and check that? [08:50] yep, thanks again :-) [08:50] no [08:50] It's my work network [08:50] Tron2X: then why does ssh say - next to it [08:50] ? [08:50] They can't afford downtime [08:50] i did service ssh status [08:50] and it says its running [08:50] AlexPortable: what wifi driver are you using? [08:50] yet when i do service --status-all [08:50] ActionParsnip: how can i find out? [08:50] it says [-] ssh === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [08:50] AlexPortable: sudo lshw -C network [08:50] brucelee maybe --status-all is for startup. I'll check into it. [08:51] this sounds lke a #networking issue not a ubuntu issue [08:51] smilyLee: how so? [08:51] Different OS will make it work [08:51] haha [08:51] smilyLee: may have to set it to G mode only on the driver [08:52] Ubuntu is the best bro [08:52] AlexPortable: read the text at the bottom of the entry for the wireless device and you will see "driver=" what do you have after that? [08:53] smilyLee: in some situations, yes [08:53] ActionParsnip: go for it mate... i nominate you for a really nice guy... [08:53] smilyLee: thanks [08:54] we all learn from the conclusion of any trouble shooting realted to the os [08:54] AlexPortable: what driver module is the wifi using? [08:56] brucelee: I couldn't find anything more but some people say you can get chkconfig from the repos. [08:56] Tron2X: i tried, i couldnt :( [08:56] Tron2X: i just take it as there nothing like that [08:56] in ubuntu [08:56] AlexPortable: sudo lshw -C network | grep drive ,will be clearer [08:56] im not sure how people determine what runs during which run levels [08:57] brucelee: you can look in the rc folders [08:57] does anyone have an ideea why in ubuntu 13.10 when uploading a movie (in .mkv format if that makes any differrence) on a usb stick on port 3.0 starts with 50mb/s and slows down to 12 progresively and then even more? [08:57] !runlevel [08:57] In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. [08:57] ActionParsnip: looking in the rc folders is kind of complicated... [08:57] PCatinean: Saucy is EOL and no longer supported in any way [08:58] ok [08:58] ActionParsnip: and there will be alot of switching between rc folders to determine whats what [08:58] brucelee: read ubottu's output [08:58] Is it because of the distro? [08:59] ActionParsnip: that doesnt answer my question though, but thanks [08:59] PCatinean: no. The release is dead. The distro is Ubuntu. The release you have is old and dead [08:59] i understand sys V is unsupported anymore, but the scripts are still supported [08:59] upstart is not going to be supported soon also [08:59] Just curious if it has anything to do with it [09:00] PCatinean: it's like calling Microsoft support with a Windows 98 issue. [09:00] ok then drop it, thanks [09:01] PCatinean: I suggest you wipe Saucy off and do a clean install of Trusty. Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019 [09:03] brucelee: if they are the same by default then the intermediate runlevels will be identical. [09:03] brucelee: so you only need to check one folder [09:20] Hi [09:21] can anyone explain me why package l2tp-ipsec-vpn is not in latest ubuntu [09:21] http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=utopic&searchon=sourcenames&keywords=l2tp-ipsec-vpn [09:22] is there any other replacemnt software to have l2TP/ipsec PSK VPN connection [09:23] Gujs_, It's in 14.04: l2tp-ipsec-vpn - control your L2TP IPsec VPN connections [09:23] i know [09:23] why is it not in 14.10 [09:23] I really need my vpn to work :( [09:24] maybe ya should stick to LTS then .. 14.10 has limited support anyway. [09:24] is it possible that some paskages ar still not enabled for 14.10 and this will come in time? === OERIAS is now known as |_|__||_| [09:25] Gujs_, Not likely, one they free the image, it's security and bugs fixes after that, so if it's no there, maybe there was a dependency issues or something. [09:25] Gujs_, possible but seriously unlikely [09:26] hm, strange [09:26] s/one they free/once they freeze/g [09:26] anybody know how to get vpn client working for l2tp/ipsec psk connection then? [09:26] Install l2tp-ipsec-vpn :-) [09:26] no, i use VPNbook [09:26] Just kidding [09:26] I have nfs partition mounted on "/media/nfs" and on it I have disk.iso file and when I trying to mount it using command: "sudo mount -t iso9660 loop /media/nfs/disk.iso /media/iso" it fails with error: "mount: /media/nfs/disk.iso: failed setting up loop device: Permission denied", but if I mount local iso file using "sudo mount -t iso9660 -o [09:27] loop /tmp/disk.iso /media/iso" there is no error, so why I can't mount iso file that is resides on nfs partition ? [09:27] Gujs_, Is there a particular reason you must have / use 14.10 rather than the LTS release ? [09:28] I like to use latest software [09:29] Charcoalcat: Driverr=r8169 [09:29] driver=iwlwifi driverversion=3.13.0-32-generic [09:29] Gujs_, There's very little changed from 14.04 to 14.10 from an end-user perspective., but that's part of the game when runnign the bleeding edge stuff I guess. [09:30] AlexPortable: I think it was ActionParsnip who asked for that? [09:30] I think it is then more or less somebody stopped maintaining it [09:31] but, how the hell are people coping with vpn connections [09:31] That's possible, but normally they would add the last revision if it built on the servers properly. [09:31] when ever I upgrade I have problems with VPN [09:31] so stick with lts versions... [09:32] i tried to rebuild it from deb source packages, but then I found that also openswan dependancy is missing === Malsasa| is now known as Malsasa [09:32] so it is more then just this package [09:32] getting an error when trying out git [09:33] Like I said earlier, my guess is it's a dependency issue, they normally dont just drop packages for no good reason.

[11:44] Voyage: No, I'm saying that if you are having issues with your ISP not allowing you to make skype calls you probably want to VPN outside your ISP so the calls will work. Something like privateinternetacess.com [11:45] Voyage: But again, that is way-oh-so-not Ubuntu related and doesn't belong here. [11:45] reason i am switching to windows is because ubuntu 14.04 freezes screen very often [11:45] ServerSage, How hard it would be to setup my own vpn? OR I can just use skype by ssh?

You'd have to spoof the DNS to make that work. Or add some funky routing to your router. The point of the VPN is to get you OUTSIDE your ISP. If you ahve a server in some other part of the world, then yes you can set up your own VPN. [11:47] ServerSage, how hard and time consuming it would be to setup a vpn? [11:47] what can be wrong if i am trying to use boot-repair, but it stucks doing "os-prober" [11:47] how ben64 [11:48] Voyage: Depends on your level of expertise. Do you have a server - OUTSIDE OF YOUR ISP - that you can set one up on? If not, then I suggest you just sign up for something like PIA (the link I sent above). [11:48] how to solve screen freeze in ubuntu 14.04 [11:48] caniz: depends what the problem is, you haven't given any information at all [11:48] ServerSage, I have a server outside. yes [11:48] caniz: Where does it freeze? What happens? Do you get an error? [11:49] Voyage: Take a look at this and decide for yourself how hard it would be: http://goo.gl/H7hD [11:50] ServerSage, ok. [11:50] ServerSage, 1 hour job I gues [11:50] thanks [11:51] Voyage: Seems optimistic if you have never setup a VPN before. [11:51] and 4 hours to solve issues .

[11:59] as you have the source, you have a tar and you have the target [11:59] juro: cp -R your-top-level [11:59] juro: yeah that ^ [12:00] juro: You can try using rsync, cp -R, or escaping. [12:00] My_Name_Says_Hi, unfortunately that won't work [12:00] I've tried rsync but that ended up with errors regarding encoding (the users are using Windows) [12:00] juro, I backup in tar to preserve trees.

[12:03] ServerSage, "cp: cannot stat `mount_dir/../some file/with space': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character" [12:03] hmm, it might not be the spaces though ... [12:04] I'm guessing it's not a UTF8 char. [12:04] indeed, the error message tells you everything [12:04] Or rather, there is a non UTF8 char causing the problem. :) [12:04] juro, why dont you just create a virtual filesystem chunk, then you can mix and match.

[12:05] displays access denied [12:05] Hetachi: root is normally a blocked user by default [12:05] My_Name_Says_Hi, sounds like a mit of overkill for a simple backup copy? [12:05] But I was able to connect using it like month ago [12:05] Hetachi: on ubuntu a.) the root account is locked b.) ftp root user is blocked by default with most ftp servers [12:05] then someone has changed your config [12:05] but you shouldn't have been able to as the root account is locked [12:05] it's fresh vmware install [12:06] that doesn't change what I said [12:06] hmm [12:06] My_Name_Says_Hi: You really like to pull out the big guns to kill ants. lol [12:06] okay in that case what way should I use to connect ? [12:06] a.) the root account has no password by default - so you can't use root b.) defaualt ftp servers block the root account [12:06] you should use a non-privileged user [12:06] I added password for root [12:06] ftp isn't very secure to start with, adding root is asking for problems [12:07] Hetachi: then you should understand what youa re doing if you are setting a root password [12:07] Hetachi: 1.- use sftp 2.- create user only for sftp. [12:07] morning everyone [12:08] oh sorry for the misunderstanding I am using sftp [12:08] Hetachi: then... 1.- block root and guest login account with sftp...2. create new user only for sftp [12:09] Hetachi: see auth.log what is wrong there. check ssh.conf if permit-root-login is yes [12:09] 3.- change deafult port === ubuntu is now known as Guest46566 [12:10] Should I still do all of those steps if it's local machine, and non of the ports are allowed outside my LAN ? [12:10] Hetachi: then there's no need to use sftp at all, just use samba [12:11] Hetachi: or even better if you already have ssh, use scp [12:11] is there download manager for ubuntu ?

[12:16] instead of displaying in logs wrong password ? [12:16] download manager like IDM [12:16] ikonia the machine works fine .. But my brain ask where is the eglibc :) [12:16] Hetachi: good luck [12:16] is there any software like IDM for ubuntu 14.04 [12:17] caniz: openidm ? [12:17] Ben64, do you have an idea ?

[12:17] i don't have idm [12:17] gillesmm: what are you actually trying to accomplish [12:17] ah I see thank you [12:17] how to get it in ubuntu [12:17] gillesmm: there are multiple libraries [12:17] caniz: yes, and I've just told you you can get, openidm [12:17] Hetachi: sftp is "just" the ssh daemon doing ftp over ssh. so there is the same user and pw you can enter on ssh login. [12:17] caniz: download managers aren't really needed or helpful. wget can do pretty much everything [12:17] Does f.lux work for someone of you guys on 14.04? [12:18] ok wget is that software? where can i get it? [12:18] it does not seem to do the redlight thingy at all [12:18] adac: use redshift [12:18] caniz: sudo apt-get install wget [12:18] also opening the settings fails [12:18] ikonia, what is the libc library used on ubuntu ? eglibc ? [12:18] ok thanks [12:18] caniz: https://help.ubuntu.com if you read this you'll learn the basics of how to use ubuntu [12:18] k1l, redshift makes very weird coloring I would say [12:18] Hetachi: so you can test any account in just trying to login at ssh [12:18] caniz: I thought it was still glibc, I'd have to check [12:19] k1l, I tried and it is really not that good in comparison to f.lox [12:19] ok [12:19] adac: its making it red. like it should be. you can set it how much red it should make it. [12:19] k1l, maybe I will try and play around with the settings, ok [12:19] k1l: Now it's starting to make sense [12:19] k1l, but still: f.lux seems to be broken in 14.04 [12:19] how to download flashget from terminal? [12:19] and it was working in 12.04 [12:20] caniz: why do you feel you need a download manager [12:20] gillesmm: looks like glibc [12:20] because i need to download lots of software like skype and so on [12:20] caniz: for download 'sudo apt-get download package' | to install 'sudo apt-get install package' [12:21] ikonia where can I got information ? [12:21] caniz: you do not need download managers to get software. use the software center [12:21] gillesmm: what information ?

[12:22] how can you compare software center to someething you don't have [12:22] oh how can i see official ubuntu repos?

[12:48] caniz, actually, the way you were installing, deleting and playing with your OS structure, I'm surprised your machine lasted as long as it did. [12:49] maybe due to some hardware issue [12:49] what are basic requirement for having ubuntu 14.04 [12:49] caniz, read the release notes on the download page. [12:49] cfhowlett_: linux works in misterious ways... =p [12:50] caniz: i doubt. you went from "i want to remove ubuntu" to "i got a flickering monitor" to "i need a download manager" to "i need aptoncd" in about 10minutes. what about you take a breath and actually think what you want to do and then make it a step by step. [12:50] caniz: you are mixing and confusing things all over. i bet that is the reason it doesnt work like for everyone else [12:51] in technical terms, "problem is located between they keyboard and the display". [12:52] hahahaha [12:52] i just want to know reason why my screen freezes. That's all [12:53] caniz: i think k1l and cfhowlett_ already answered that [12:53] caniz: ok, what freezes. what program? only one program? what does "dmesg" say (pastebin it) after its working again? [12:53] caniz, could be any number of factors. I rarely suggest this but in this instance, reinstall ubuntu. Then you problem solve one issue at a time. carefully. thoughtfully. [12:58] Anyone know what can cause the system to shutdown when the display sleeps? [12:58] crash* not shutdown [12:58] Zane: have you checked logs?

Easy to make that mistake. [14:29] joan: Are you using the same user from both windows machines? [14:29] no, please check the pastebin info [14:30] joan: You probably wanna try #samba for support with Samba shares. [14:31] ServerSage, users group has nobody and local home user, in order to allow normal acces and making samba map clients to nobody user [14:31] Hey - does anyone run any supermicro serverboards? I have recently purchased a machine that has a permanent beep on boot and doesnt stop. what could cause this? it's passively cooled. [14:32] read the beep codes [14:32] contact super micro and ask for the alarm codes [14:32] joan: if you use two different users, did you add both to samba? [14:32] ServerSage, yes I tried but no-one seems to be very willing to help so far. [14:32] well, one you said it works, so, did you add the other one? [14:33] ikonia: read the manual [14:33] this is not listed. [14:34] dym: right, so contact super micro and ask for the alarm/beep codes [14:34] Surendil, there is only one remote user, the other is the local user. Sharing consists of two dirs with the permissions specified in the pastebin file I posted. the weird thing is that one is seen from the win7 box but not the other [14:35] joan: i'm kinda stupid right now, long night...but i only see one share on your paste [14:36] Surendil, please read everything :) [14:36] already read 5 times, that's why i ask [14:36] How do I generate a installation report for a bug report? [14:37] Surendil, both have the same permissions /srv/samba/share is a placeholder [14:37] i'm not talking about permissions, i'm talking about shares [14:37] joan: Ok, so from ComputerA you can see only 1 share? And from ComputerB you can't see either share? [14:37] With debian this is done with: "reportbug installation-reports" [14:37] i only see one shared declared [14:38] ikonia: well - maybe someone around can answer the question instead of me waiting 3 days for a supermicro e-mail reply [14:38] Surendil: If you actually read her pastebin it says she only has one there, but both exist. [14:38] dym: try ##hardware [14:38] dym: it's not really an ubuntu problem [14:38] sorry, i should not try to give advice right now... [14:38] Surendil: "Both dirs have this config (names change for each dir, obviously):" [14:38] dym: but if you want factual information, supermicro are the right people to contact for the alarm codes [14:38] rather than someone guessing at it [14:38] dym: Try maybe asking in a more relevant channel, like ##hardware. #ubuntu really isn't the right place for this. [14:39] ServerSage, ComputerA is local, so no problem to access both dirs. The problem is remote access. one dir is seen from ComputerB, but not the other dir. That's the weird issue [14:40] ServerSage, ComputerB is the win7 box [14:40] joan: Ok, got it. Can you just pastebin the whole config file?

[14:44] ServerSage, the problem is that I haven't access to the net right now. Assuming that one dir is working ok but not the other, I was wondering if you know how to reset/wipe out win7 networking stuff [14:45] joan: Reboot.

[15:10] but if it is, then you should have no problem doing so [15:12] luckybunny: I partially agree, giving the GUI fix doesn't teach how linux actually works! [15:13] luckybunny: unfortunately im on terminal only :/ [15:14] Salyangoz: in that case you do need the CLI method [15:14] type "man chmod" [15:14] without the ""s [15:14] luckybunny: hahaha, like i said, man chown | man chmod [15:14] yup [15:14] lol [15:14] luckybunny yeah I already know the chmod command, however I dont want to rewrite 100s of files’ permissions, I just want to remove a certain x permission from those. [15:15] separated files or all in the same folder? [15:15] same folder. [15:15] surendil [15:15] read -R variable [15:17] Good morning, all. Does anyone here use slim that can help with an issue? [15:19] Salyangoz: did it help? [15:19] honestly I didnt understand it %100 [15:19] i just did chmod o-x * [15:19] :D [15:19] fixed my problem [15:20] hahaha [15:20] anyway, i will explain [15:21] surendil : and I shall listen :) === owner_ is now known as Guest89384 [15:21] oh wow [15:22] Salyangoz: -R = recursive..this means that chmod -R 755 /var/log will change ALL files with those perms...same with chown....chown -R user.user /var/log would change user and group for ALL files in there [15:22] It seems someone else made `chmod -R o+x /` [15:22] 0_0 [15:23] someone else?

[15:26] he apologised. [15:26] its k. [15:26] :D [15:26] how do I hide my wallpaper in the lock screen? === lbaway is now known as luckybunny === nyuszika7h_ is now known as nyuszika7h [15:27] Salyangoz: tell him, next time do 'rm -rf /' [15:27] it would be the same [15:29] I cant open a digitalizes document in my IRS online account that i need to modify.

[15:40] Surendil : it open me this page https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ [15:40] williamtdr_: can you paste your sources.list? [15:40] k1l: yup, one moment [15:41] file 'raring.tar.gz.gpg' missing [15:41] oops [15:41] I'am totally confused choosing right releases for an openstack installation on 14.04.1 LTS [15:41] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/E0sphLEe [15:41] there [15:41] following that guide http://www.ubuntu.com/download/cloud/install-ubuntu-openstack [15:42] i suggests using stuff under testing (eg. ppa:maas-maintainers/testing) [15:42] williamtdr_: Hmm, raring... try for trusty [15:42] SonikkuAmerica: doing so [15:42] are those reps the right when using 14.04.1? [15:42] Hey guys, fresh install of 14.04 and my laptop uses optimus, I followed this guide to set things up properly (http://xmodulo.com/install-configure-nvidia-optimus-driver-ubuntu.html) but when I switch to the nvidia card my screen will freeze after about 5 mins and I need to go to emergency terminal to restart lightdm. can anyone help? [15:42] everything works fine while running on intel card [15:43] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/NK1JMxFw [15:43] plenty of errors [15:43] williamtdr_: run the "apt-get -f install" [15:43] k1l: if I do that it asks if I want to remove all packages on the system [15:43] williamtdr_: :/ [15:44] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/1W4ZylYp [15:44] williamtdr_: ping -c 3 google.com ? [15:44] but hey, could save 667 mb disk space [15:44] williamtdr_: seems like there is some issue with the package system. changing to old-releases should do the trick on a EOL release [15:44] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/O4D2rNBR [15:44] Surendil: ^ [15:44] k1l: using the old releases [15:44] jesk: If you're looking to generate a default sources list look no further than http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ [15:45] williamtdr_: thanks and sorry for the stupid question [15:45] williamtdr_: yes, the install -f solutions dosnt make sense [15:45] Surendil: it's fine. 1 gbit connection in a data center, should be fine [15:45] k1l: glibc is broken and I can't install/remove any packages [15:45] k1l: tried to debug it before on here, no one could solve it, figure a release upgrade is the easiest thing at this point [15:46] and i'm off, can't think straight anymore... [15:46] williamtdr_: ah ok. :/ [15:46] see ya later people, share your knowledge [15:46] Hallo === freyes is now known as zz_freyes [15:47] k1l: want to install ansible, can't do that without a working apt configuration :) [15:47] how to remove unity-session from kubuntu [15:48] williamtdr_: i think that is a circle now. honestly i would consider a clean 14.04 install with backups from that stuff that you need [15:49] k1l: production server, can't do that. would cause too much downtime. [15:49] :/ [15:49] k1l: serving mysql and a few websites that can't go down [15:49] at least for long [15:49] SonikkuAmerica: its more about choosing the right way to install openstack on ubuntu 14.04.1. As I stumbled across some problems doing it the way the ubuntu guide suggests, I consider the guide as maybe referencing the wrong sources for 14.04.1. [15:50] ciao [15:50] does ubuntu support 4tb hard drives, i've noticed that my 4tb hard drive is only showing up as 2.7tb when i use the command df [15:52] !list [15:52] benedetta: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [15:52] stevecam: it's not an ubuntu limit. is it an older system? [15:52] stevecam: yes I'm sure it does but some space ends up being used for infrastructure. but I wouldn't think like 25% of it in your case [15:53] Someone help me remove my JAVA version and install the latest one on console ? [15:53] stevecam: mbr or gpt? [15:53] stevecam: Take a look at it in gparted and see what that volume looks like. [15:53] imbezol, 14.10 [15:53] stevecam: oh, i mean the hardware, aside from the harddrive [15:53] stevecam: Depends from your fs systemd imho. [15:54] its a 2yo sata mobo [15:54] stevecam: first thing to check then is how it's partitioned [15:56] hmm, it's telling me that there is unnallocated space within the partition [15:57] stevecam: But it shows the entire 4 TB? [15:57] yes [15:57] You may have to just extend the partition, then. Was this an old partition copied to a new drive? [15:58] no, i messed around with it earlier, i guess gparted showed me what was going on, thanks, just didnt think partitions worked like that [15:59] Hey all, looking to be pointed in the right direction. I have an ubuntu box with one wired network connection and one wifi, its running hostapd, and works great, until I disconnect the wired network, then everything stops working. I’m basically looking for some docs on setting up ubuntu as a standalone wifi router that is NOT connected to any external network, for a kind of network lab set up wihtout internet access… can any [15:59] point me to some docs on doing that? [16:01] uptownben: you should be able to setup dhcpd and bind9 on one system to provide ip's and names for each computer in the system [16:02] sacarlson: yerah, I have dhcp set up snd al works via hostapd, but seems to require the bridge to work… [16:02] uptownben: if there are also subnets then you may also need satalite servers or a system with multi nics to serve and connect them [16:02] llfdkseksige üks kord [16:03] uptownben: do you have subnets? [16:03] nbuonanno, thank you [16:03] sacarlson: no subnets, just a real basic standalone wifi network [16:03] stevecam: Glad I could help! Enjoy. === nick6465 is now known as WickedGame [16:04] uptownben: ya the wifi access point I guess that would be ok with a bridge so I don't see what your problem would be then. can you ping each other? do you get ip's? [16:05] nbuonanno, trying to recover another disk i accidentally formatted when installing 14.10, needed the extra space and was wondering where it went, although i find it strange that the installer formatted the partition im trying to recover in the first place === alessandro is now known as Guest72821 [16:05] sacarlson: it works great, but I dont need the bridge because I dont want this wifi net connected to the internet or any other network, just an internal “lab” set up [16:06] right now, with hostapd, if I disconnect eth0, the wifi net also stops working [16:06] uptownben: you still need the bridge to connect the wifi to the wired net [16:06] stevecam: What did you choose for disk partitioning options during the install? [16:07] the last option, i think it said custom [16:07] stevecam: Specifically, did you manually set up partitions or pick one of the automatic/guided options? [16:07] uptownben: so your running the entire net on wifi? [16:07] sacarlson: that’s exactly the problem, I basically want it to not be connected to the wired net, just a wifi router, that has no external connection [16:07] sacarlson: yes, exactly, basically a wifi router, but doesnt route to any external net [16:08] uptownben: ok that can be done but your wifi you using at the server point is some wifi nic? or you using some ethernet wifi device? [16:08] nbuonanno, im blaming buggy ubuntu install, but now i have a 1.5 disk to recover :-( [16:09] sacarlson: yeah, its a generic edimax wifi card, and does master mode with no problem, its current working like I said, with hostapd, but I want to disconnect the external/wired network [16:10] uptownben: in theory that should be no problem.. provide dhcp on it.. broadcast a router address of itself [16:10] So I wouldnt need hostapd? [16:10] uptownben: then turn off forwarding between that interface and the wired network interface.. the AP could even have internet without the clients having it [16:11] hostapd is for authing the clients.. not really related to how you're routing if i'm not mistaken [16:11] but then, i haven't used it much [16:12] uptownben: I guess the bridge is setup to eth0 in this case so removing it makes it fail. I guess that's how the program hostap is writen. so maybe you will have to setup your device with a script and treat it more like a normal nic === dino is now known as Guest84511 [16:12] imbezol: oh, so I would just change my iptables setup? [16:13] uptownben: yeah you prevent forwarding with iptables.. or just a sysctl command [16:13] uptownben: your script will just setup the modes and encryption of the wifi nic device then setup the rest standard like a wired dhcp bind9 server [16:13] uptownben: can you just not specify a bridge interface for hostapd? or does it strictly require one? [16:14] uptownben: sysctl -a | grep forward [16:14] imbezol: I believe if you dont specify one in the config, it goes looking for nics to bridge and creates one anyway [16:14] uptownben: you'll see the ipv4 and ipv6 for your wifi interface [16:14] uptownben: ah [16:15] stevecam: If you can see that disk in gparted, you can try Device -> Attempt Data Rescue [16:15] uptownben: it might be that it tweaks the sysctl setting automatically too so might have to watch out for that [16:15] stevecam: I've never tried that function myself, but I suppose it's worth a shot. [16:15] uptownben: but it sounds more like it's just extending your LAN to your WAN [16:15] imbezol: I think hostapd also sets up bridge but your right it could be setup to just forward as that would also work [16:15] imbezol: I have this in my setup script: sudo iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j MASQUERADE [16:16] imbezol: and this: sudo iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface wlan0 -j ACCEPT [16:16] nbuonanno, ty [16:16] stevecam: Let me know how it works, I'm curiuos. [16:16] uptownben: the second one probably doesn't do anything unless you have forward set to DROP by default === s_e_a_n is now known as Sean64 [16:17] uptownben: there will be no need to masquerade as you said there is no subnets but I would think it wouldn't mater if it was there or not it just won't be used [16:18] yeah.. strange that you're trying to masquerade on a bridge interface.. usually NAT would be used if you have a different subnet on the wifi [16:18] imbezol: could this be a problem: sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 [16:18] uptownben: that will allow all forwarding from one interface to another [16:18] uptownben: if you set that to 0 then nothing will cross from one interface to another to reach a network [16:19] imbezol: if I understand uptownben the server will have but one interface and that being only the wifi nic [16:20] imbezol: uptownben there for no real need to forward anything [16:20] sacarlson: well he could optionally have network for the server on his LAN interface [16:20] but yeah.. you can probably turn forwarding off [16:20] turning forwarding off will likely not change anything if you're bridge tho [16:20] you need to get rid of the bridge setup [16:21] I dont want to use the wired net at al, actually want to remove the eth card [16:21] ah.. well if it's not even plugged in then forwarding can do whatever it wants.. not going to change anything === ivo is now known as Guest90568 [16:22] imbezol: uptownben but if he was to use the wire lan then again he would have at least two subnets, one on each nic or I guess he could just bridge them [16:22] right, I just basically want to setup the system to be a wifi “switch” that does dhcp [16:23] sacarlson: I’m getting rid of the eth card, so there will only be wifi on this box [16:23] hello, I need some advice...I am running ubuntu 14.04 dual boot with windows 7 . each system is installed in its own HDD. I bought new hardware and I would like to split the dual boot in order to place windows in one machine and ubuntu on the other...which would be the best way to achieve this? [16:24] I used hostapd because it sets the wifi card to master mode [16:24] uptownben: I love wired, wifi is never perfect [16:24] sacarlson: I hear you, but this is for a test lab setup [16:24] doesnt need internet access [16:25] uptownben: you can set the wifi to master mode with iwconfig also but I'm not sure why hostapd won't also work. I think it also sets up dnsmasq [16:26] uptownben: or I guess you might want to setup wpsuplicant so your wifi is encrypted [16:26] I think hostapd depends on there being a bridge [16:26] I think I spelled that wrong [16:27] Is there any way that I can get the glibc man pages for string.h, float.h, etc.? [16:27] uptownben: then maybe provide hostapd a bridge to lo [16:28] when i do ls -f /proc/$$ .... what exactly is the $$ doing ? [16:28] ah hah, interesting [16:28] How can I change Ubuntu Software Center default to being App Grid as default? [16:29] uptownben: I think you might want to replace dnsmasq in hostapd with bind9 unless you plan to just manualy set things in hosts files [16:30] host files will be fine for this === alessandro is now known as Guest86737 [16:30] *hosts [16:30] uptownben: ok no problem then just have to find out how to change hostapd to bridge to lo instead of eth0 [16:31] I am looking for help to solve unmet dependencies from packages. I have tried several apt-get commands, but it looks like I have to do it manually. [16:33] sacarlson: wouldnt that just be a matter of setting up br0 in /etc/network/interfaces ? [16:33] then pointing hostapd to that? [16:33] diego_ there is a command line debi or something like that, that will also install a deb files dependancies [16:33] guest_666: try echo $$ [16:34] guest_666: it's going to show you the process ID of your bash shell [16:34] sacarlson: gdebi if i recall correctly [16:34] imbezol interesting, thank you ! [16:34] guest_666: so basically you're listing the contents of the directory within /proc that has info about your bash process [16:35] diego_: the command line name is gdebi example sudo gdebi ./mini-isp.deb ; will install mini-isp and all it's needed dependancies [16:35] zykotick9: yes you got it right [16:37] uptownben: just look at route -n and ifconfig and see what it does and find out how to change it [16:37] sacarlson: zykotick9 I see. Some of the packages I've downloaded I just name them. I would need to get the .deb file in this case. Right_ [16:37] ? [16:37] uptownben: it's been a long time since I've used bridge so I don't even recall how to see how it's set [16:37] Hey folks, is there a method to switching between windows of the same program in unity? + isn't expanding multiple windows of the same program. === sins-_p is now known as sins- [16:38] diego_: just the top app you want to installs deb file is needed. the rest will be auto downloaded === MeltedDed is now known as MeltedLux [16:39] athan: Ctrl-Pg[Up|Dn [16:39] athan: For some programs. [16:40] jhutchins: Ahh crud, that skews with the terminal tabs :( Thank you though! [16:40] and firefox too :( [16:43] suggestions on a package to provide a sendmail binary for sending alerts? === mikla is now known as Guest14514 [16:46] imbezol: maybe perhaps `sendmail`? [16:46] imbezol: although that implies you're not on a residential connection - most residential-ip-originating emails get nuked by most email systems and ISPs [16:47] i just want to be able to have a service send alerts to my external email address.. don't want to actually recieve mail [16:47] imbezol: that's my point - if the sendmail is sending from your residential IP to your external email it's going to be flagged and/or ignored [16:47] teward: i can get around that because i run the mailserver it's relaying through [16:48] imbezol: sendmail is the sendmail binary,you can probably just install and configure that, unless you need something more robust like postfix [16:48] anyways, I had an actual question,. is there a way to disable how the Unity dash intercepts alt? It's breaking with Chrome and Firefox's Alt+D shortcut to get to the address bar... [16:48] teward: i'll throw postfix on for now. thought there must be a real lightweight sendmail binary that just connects to a remote mailserver for delivery [16:48] I have an issue after upgrading to 14.10, the upgrade said it failed, then the window just closes and nothing. Everything *seems* to have updated though... all except 1 "ubuntu-docs" I get an error whenever I try to update it "dpk: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ubuntu-docs_14.10.4.deb (--unpack): unable to make backup symlink for `./usr/share/help/en_CA/ubuntu-help/printing-cancel-job.page': No space left on device" [16:49] f00dWorksta: perhaps too obvious a question.. are you out of space on one of your partitions? [16:50] imbezol: i have 4.8Gb free [16:51] sacarlson: so to let you know what I did (It works!), I set up a br0 int /etc/network/interfaces [16:51] f00dWorksta: and you have just the one mountpoint? [16:51] bridging wlan0 and lo [16:51] then told hostapd to use that br0 [16:52] imbezol: yes [16:52] now my box is unplugged from the wired net and doing its own thing! [16:52] very cool [16:52] thank you both [16:53] sacarlson: Unfortunately the same unmet dependencies are found with gdebi [16:53] diego_: oh it sounds like a broken package [16:53] diego_: what package is it? where did it come frome? [16:56] I think i should report this GUI bug in wireshark, It wont let me resize the window to access all the controls...lol http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1415206519.png === Malsasa| is now known as Malsasa [16:56] diego_: first thing you do is find similar or same package that is already in the ubuntu repository. if nothing close then you can see if you can find the needed unmet dependencies in ppa. if not then you have to compile them your self [16:56] sacarlson: I mistakenly removed kubuntu-desktop, but can't install it again. [16:56] l0rdn1x: What DE? [16:56] jhutchins, Unity [16:57] diego_: did you somehow modify your repository list? [16:58] diego_: did you try sudo apt-get install -f ; ?? [16:58] sacarlson: I've tracked down to mysql-client, which I had tried to upgrade. But I'm not really sure [16:59] sacarlson: I did try insall -f, it didn't do much. [17:00] diego_: mysql-client is not part of kubuntu-desktop so I'm not sure what all is happening [17:01] sacarlson: That came a few dependencies after. === jct is now known as jct64 [17:02] is there a way to control audio on xfce? [17:02] do i install something? [17:03] cuz settings doesn't hav eiot [17:03] diego_: unless you show me a dependency that is missing for kubuntu-desktop then I can't help you [17:03] is there a utility? [17:04] i can't seem to figure out how to control audio on xubuntu/xfce [17:04] jct64: try pavucontrol === tobi_ is now known as suduyua93 [17:04] how? [17:05] jct64: sudo apt-get install pavucontrol [17:05] doin it [17:05] jct64: ok [17:05] got it alrealy [17:06] jct64: ok, open a terminal and type pavucontrol [17:06] sacarlson: So kubuntu-desktop shows unmet dependencies for: kde-workspace, plasma-desktop, plasma-netbook, software-properties-kde, and maybe 15 other recommendations. [17:06] did it it worked [17:07] diego_: try install manually the first one kde-workspace [17:07] sacarlson: If then I try to install kde-workspace, it then misses kde-workspace-bin [17:08] diego_, earlier you wrote you have a lot of PPA's, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ [17:08] diego_: and this is with sudo gdebi ./kubuntu-desktop ; they you downloaded already? [17:08] sacarlson: which then depends on plasma-desktop... and son on. [17:08] diego_: did you try gdebi? [17:08] hi [17:09] sacarlson: Yes, I did try gdebi, but no, this is the output from apt-get install. [17:10] sacarlson: gdebi only gave me kde-workspace to be missing. [17:10] Hey guys, how do i set this to be default in the bash profile "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/users/j/lib" than calling it all the time [17:10] diego_: did you sudo apt-get update ; [17:11] like to look for local libs first and then look for local libs [17:11] jokur: for everyone or just you? [17:11] just me [17:11] i dont have root access anyway [17:11] jokur: just add it to your .bashrc [17:11] jokur: in your home directory [17:11] yeah what should i add in it? imbezol [17:12] jokur: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/users/j/lib [17:13] jokur: if there are other things in that variable already you'll want to add to them instead of overwriting [17:13] jokur: something like.. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/users/j/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} [17:13] jokur: try "set | grep LD_LIBRARY_PATH" to see [17:15] I created a symbolic link to my NTFS external hard drive inside of a samba share but from the client I get permission denied when I try to access the external. [17:15] Is there a way to give permissions for the NTFS share? [17:15] I guess fstab supports some options for that. [17:15] Not unless it's sending login credentials when attempting to access the file. [17:16] Scott_S, that can't be the only way. [17:16] Blaster no, as NTFS is not posix, so you cannot set permissions like ext4 [17:16] You can pass mount options that include a uid and a gid to the external though right? [17:16] Blaster: I think samba supports a method to force the user name desired on the file system, oh but in this case ntfs has no user so ?? [17:16] Even if it's NTFS. [17:16] Blaster: you can set fake permissions [17:16] The external is mounted as root which is weird. [17:17] It auto mounted when I plugged it in when logged in as my normal user account. [17:17] Are you accessing it through the Samba protocol, or direct? [17:17] I created a symlink to the external HDD from inside the samba share. === Snowstormer is now known as Paramore [17:17] And I want to access the contents of the HDD from the samba client. [17:17] Create a new share that directs to the root of the drive. [17:18] I don't really want a third share but I will try it. [17:18] I'd prefer to learn how to make this way work too. [17:18] I think if I set mount options for that external it will mount as my user and will be accessible from the samba client. [17:19] I'm talking about the uid and gid options. [17:19] blaster is there other parts of the shared directory now that are accessable that aren't a part of the ntfs or is it all directed to the ntfs partition? [17:19] Other parts too. [17:19] Which is why I symlinked to the external (/media/mydrive). [17:19] The share is in ~/hostshare and the symlink is ~/hostshare/external. [17:20] Change "follow symlinks = no" in the Samba config to "follow symlinks = yes" [17:20] (For your Samba server.) [17:21] Keep in mind symlinks on a Samba share are insecure, hence why the preference to use another share. [17:22] Scott_S, I tried that and it didn't work. Do I need to do anything on the Windows samba client to reflect the change? I restarted the samba daemon. [17:22] trying to unmount a partition so i can mount it somewhere else but it says its busy. [17:22] Did you change widelinks to yes? [17:22] The key thing is that the symlink leads to the mounted HDD and it's owned by root. [17:22] I think the mount to the external needs to be owned by the user. [17:22] e.g. "wide links = yes", then sudo service restart smbd [17:22] Blaster: you should be able to mount your ntfs to the desired user http://askubuntu.com/questions/92863/mount-ntfs-partition-at-startup-with-non-root-user-as-owner [17:23] sacarlson: Yes, update ran smoothly. [17:23] Scott_S: Access is still denied after making those changes. [17:23] how do i figure out what's writing to that partition, i tried lsof but that showed nothing [17:23] diego_: sorry I assumed that is the first thing people do [17:23] sacarlson, that looks more like the direction I was planning on heading. [17:24] How can I get my external's UUID so I can bind the fstab to it? [17:24] Blaster: blkid [17:24] Nevermind Google is good at answering that. [17:25] sacarlson: I'm still an amateur, so I follow the posts that I find. [17:25] ServerSage, that command worked pretty well too. [17:25] Can I mount an NTFS external as EXT4? [17:25] Blaster: sudo blkid [17:26] I thought someone said that NTFS and EXT4 were similar. [17:26] no [17:26] you can mount it as ntfs [17:27] Is there a way to run fstab manually so I don't have to restart to make sure it mounts my external properly? === ubuntu is now known as Guest23918 [17:27] Blaster: sudo mount -a [17:27] Thanks. [17:27] Blaster: also the term would be 'parse' not 'run' for a config file :> [17:27] Blaster: yes you can also umount then mount it manualy with the values you want without changes to fstab [17:29] sacarlson: pretty sure the user's intention was to test the fstab mount ;) [17:29] buenas [17:29] alguien puede ver esto http://goo.gl/9kPMq8 :) [17:30] edgardoweb: This chat is in English [17:30] !es | edgardoweb [17:30] edgardoweb: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

[17:44] AlbertoCG: yes [17:45] Should I use ntfs or ntfs-3g? [17:45] I can choose which one I want to mount my external HDD with right? [17:45] how do I show only the python process in the top included in ubuntu [17:45] there hasn't been a difference for years afaiui [17:45] Blaster: ^ [17:45] I see. [17:45] it used to be 'o' 'python' [17:46] now there is some bizarre filter syntax [17:47] I get a weird dependency problem when I try to install nonfree video drivers: http://pastebin.com/EiyLiaT0 How can I fix this? [17:48] cortexman: weird. The manpage says to input something like: 'o' 'COMMAND=python' [17:48] that works. stupid change. [17:48] tx [17:48] daftykins, sacarlson: Hmm it still says access denied to my symlink to my external even after using mount options to set the uid, gid, and umask. [17:48] Blaster: symlinks don't have anything to do with mount options. [17:48] The external HDD is now mounted as the user with full 775 rwx. [17:49] Blaster: and what does ls -l ; show === tobi_ is now known as suduayua93T [17:49] Blaster: just mount the disk to where you want it. also, you can't set permissions on NTFS. [17:49] drwxrwxr-x 1 blaster blaster 16384 Nov 1 23:33 external [17:49] That's the NTFS mount. [17:50] I have a samba share in ~/blaster, and I'm trying to create a symlink to my external HDD. [17:50] But the samba client is getting access denied when trying to follow that symlink. [17:50] Blaster: can you touch test.txt in it as blaster? [17:50] sacarlson, yes there's no problem on the host side. [17:51] It's when I try to access the symlink to the mount from the samba client. [17:51] That I get permission denied. [17:51] Blaster: you might try unshare it and reshare it in nautilus [17:52] Blaster: using a symlink is doing it utterly wrong [17:52] share it from the source, don't link to it [17:52] Blaster: otherwise you will have to manualy setup samba config or find another working gui tool to setup shares [17:52] hi all [17:52] daftykins, I see it from your perspective but it shouldn't be this hard to do what I want to do. [17:52] daftykins: Blaster symbolic links should be the same permisions at it points to [17:53] Blaster: it wouldn't be if you followed conventions [17:53] Blaster: what did you use to setup the samba share in the first place? [17:53] daftykins, so you think I should dedicate a share for the external HDD? [17:53] my download speed on ubuntu is much slower than on windows.. any idea? is it my firmware of usb wifi adapter? [17:54] sacarlson, sudo apt-get install samba I think. [17:54] Then I just added a new directive to the configuration. [17:54] Blaster: no I mean how did you setup the shared directory? [17:54] Can anyone recomend a backup solution that runs over BTRFS? [17:54] sacarlson, mkdir? [17:55] Blaster: no didn't you use nautilus to setup the share samba? [17:55] ls [17:55] sacarlson, nope, I just added the directive to the samba config and restarted smbd. [17:55] Blaster: you had to point samba at the share with something [17:56] Blaster: oh try the easy way that I assume should work with nautilus [17:56] Blaster: just right click the directory and select share [17:56] sacarlson, I just appended this to /etc/samba/smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/seVjPLnh [17:57] Blaster: but at this point you might have broken the samba config with manuly doing it. try share another directory with nautilus [17:57] Okay I will try it. [17:57] sacarlson, all I see is “Local network share”. [17:58] I imagine that's it. [17:58] hi everyone [17:58] Blaster: ya I think so [17:58] I get a weird dependency problem when I try to install nonfree video drivers: http://pastebin.com/EiyLiaT0 How can I fix this? [17:58] I'm having trouble adding a DKIM TXT record in unbound [17:58] sacarlson, that was easy. ;) [17:59] Definitely the easier way to do it. [17:59] Blaster: ok now I don't know how you will fix the manual stuf you did [17:59] sacarlson: nothing wrong with manual config. your advice is pretty poor on this topic, are you aware that attempting to graphically share a folder with ubuntu continues to be broken out of the box? [17:59] sacarlson, there's nothing to fix. It works. ;) [18:00] This is my entry in DNS: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8839045/ and this is the dig output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8839052/ [18:00] daftykins: Blaster no I didn't know it was broken since it's been working find on linux mint for a long time [18:00] You don't grease a wheel that don't squeak! [18:00] sacarlson: if you use Mint you shouldn't be giving advice in here, they're different enough that many things do not transfer. [18:00] I noticed that any record valu I type after the semicolon it doesn't show up [18:01] daftykins: true, so fix it [18:01] sacarlson: it's not my responsibility. [18:02] I spent so much time solving that problem and now I can't even remember why I needed to solve it lol. [18:02] Oh nevermind now I remember. [18:03] Is there any way to escape the semicolon in unbound dns server? [18:03] .

Just be sure to shut down the pc as soon as possible and boot from a live cd [18:46] sacarlson, ok, you link made it work [18:46] trijntje: i still have the password. i'm booted from a live cd. [18:47] ses1984: yes it is releveant, as it explains what's happened to your data, and if it's really gone and how you can get it back [18:47] (for example) [18:47] ses1984: there is a possibility it's not even gone, there is just a network share over the top, or missing [18:47] ikonia: i dont think that's the case i dont have any kind of roaming profiles or network shares configured [18:48] ses1984: you don't know that, as you dont know what joining the domain did (hence my question) === moopasta is now known as fwaokda [18:49] diego_: Have you got your desktop restored ?

I ended up installing a second distro xubuntu. It's a temporary solution. [18:50] ses1984: did you try ls -A [18:50] hmmmm is it possible that my files are still in a .Private or .ecryptfs dir, encrypted ? [18:51] Bashing-om: But I'm still getting the erros on kubunt-desktop. Strange thing, it led me to a dependency with mysql-client. [18:51] ses1984: yes encrypted normaly start with . so are invisible [18:51] Bashing-om: a package dependency. [18:51] diego_: Nothing wrong with that approach at all .. Have you gained access to your "data" ? What do you want to do in respect to (K)ubuntu ? [18:52] ses1984: to view invisible files try ls -A [18:52] in /mounted/drive/home there's .ecryptfs/myusername/.ecryptfs and .Private [18:53] i have a feeling all my files are probably in here, just have to figure out how to mount/decrypt them somehow? [18:53] ses1984: use baobab to see where your files are [18:53] ses1984: yup [18:53] Bashing-om: Yes, I didn't need to do a backup after all, which is a relief. I would like to solve kubuntu dependencies. If you can help me, I will be ever more greatful. [18:54] if baobab is a graphical tool then that's going to be kind of tricky...i dont think the 14.04 live environment likes my graphics card as it crashes very often [18:55] i'm using other console/text based tty to do all this work [18:55] ses1984: ls -ah of the home partition [18:56] diego_: Great, OK, we can do this - restore Kubuntu.

[18:58] ses1984: it's best to keep one user on your system that isn't encrypted so you can login to it in the event an encrypted one fails [18:59] sacarlson: luckily i had one, but i dont think it would have been an issue [19:00] i think what happened is that when the computer joined the domain, whatever glue was in place that allowed me to decrypt my home dir when i logged in got wiped out, so i had no home dir, therefore it copied in a new home dir for me [19:00] after joining the domain i was able to log in with my existing user name and password but all my files weren't there [19:01] Hi. I'm looking for help with Sylpheed issues that occurred after upgrading my OS (Lubuntu, 12.04 -- 14.04). I have 3 Gmail POP accounts. Before upgrading, each account had its own set of default folders, and appeared separately in the reading pane. Now, there's only one set of default folders, and the mail from all three accounts shows up in the same place. Is this a new "feature" or is something wrong? Either way, how can I fix i [19:02] Bashing-om: Awesome. Mmph, it look like it froze. [19:02] Bashing-om: * looks [19:03] Bashing-om: that, or it's taking longer than I'm used to and doing nothing.

[19:42] diego__: you have to hold down the shift key immediately after the computer manufacturer's splash screen appears when booting [19:42] probably [19:43] The only panel indicators that show up are volume and the bell, logout, I can't get any 3rd party ones to show up that i've installed [19:43] how to install application [19:43] diego__: Now I am in a learing mode - is this a EFI booting system ?

[19:52] hi all.. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 When I restarted my system.. I have been directed to GPU grub menu. Please help me in getting back to normal mode [19:52] bubbasaures, they are [19:52] solars: if you are familiar and like with mythtv then mythbuntu is a good choice [19:52] question what does the X-server mean when i setup ubuntu on the machine [19:52] or the whole X-graphical setup with xorg [19:52] dtkicka, So not show up means what exactly? [19:52] solars: is there some reason you thought mythbuntu wasn't up to date? [19:53] Guest64569: it's the visual/display component of the operating system [19:53] tgm4883: I think most people are using mythtv as a backend and xbmc as a frontend if I understood correct? [19:53] ikonia what if I configed it wrong [19:53] k1l I'm on a sgh-i897 [19:53] Guest64569: xserver is the whole GUI. you need that if you want to see a desktop [19:53] bubbasaures, I see the default indicators for ubuntu, the clock, volume, unity bell, power, but the 3rd party indicators I installed don't show up. If I look at a list of processes running I see them running through. [19:53] tgm4883: nope, I just didn't look at it for a while, and back when I installed it there was some kind of debate between different systems, many use xbmc, but if I am right it's just a frontend? [19:53] Guest64569: you fix it [19:53] solars: no I don't think that is correct. Some do, but I would say that a majority of people probably run mythfrontend [19:53] kll si that means if I would have done it wrong i could see my desktop at all [19:53] tgm4883: ah, alright [19:54] solars: yea there is a mythtv plugin for xbmc [19:54] becuase i see things and I open up things all works [19:54] dtkicka, Did you try logging out then back in? [19:54] how do I know which package provides executable 'x'? [19:54] bubbasaures, yah, several times [19:54] mach20x: is this a clean native install or some chroot? is this a regula desktop or the ubuntu-touch?

Please help me in getting back to normal mode [19:54] or something similar [19:54] tgm4883: if I want to stream the tv programmes to different clients (windows + linux) I assume this works, what do I have to use on the clients then? [19:54] tgm4883: ah I see [19:54] mozzarella: apt search keyword [19:54] dtkicka, Hmm, not sure, I don't use unity. [19:55] mozzarella: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ is one of the ways [19:55] solars: you can use mythfrontend on multiple clients all going to the same backend [19:56] tgm4883: alright, I will use mythbuntu then again, thanks a lot for the suggestions! [19:56] Best I have got out of the install is a LXDE screen on boot, past that nothing (save for a digital clock in the lower right hand corner) [19:56] anybody the X-server I configed, is it always the right one because I went on this trial and error thing and I just clicked what was most likely and what I knew and then it booted my PC in the end and all worked so it seems that I configured it the right way, but the thing is I just clicked things without knowing what they actually meaned except for the things i found on the internet. but please tell me does it matter if i see my deskt [19:56] op it is configed right? [19:57] trinad: check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting and see if anything is applicable [19:57] any dutch ppl on this [19:57] mach20x: i would say you need to talk to the arm specialists in #ubuntu-arm since its really a lot different from the pc hardware.

[19:59] diego__: Humm .. we can not fix what is not installed ! "( I think since I uninstalled kubuntu yesterday,) " . [19:59] k1l: sorry [19:59] k1l thank you for the reference, I will head there now :-) [20:00] diego__: there always a grub menu to be accessed (if grub was installed rather than say LILO). if you have a separate boot manager other than grub installed then probably that is where your conflict lies [20:00] squinty: lilo is not installed on ubuntu [20:00] so please don't suggest that is happening [20:01] ikonia: back off and read my comments again. never suggested it was a default... [20:01] Bashing-om: As I try to install kubuntu, it won't let me because there are broken dependencies. [20:01] Squinty : I am gettig error : failure reading sector 0*0 from 'cd0' [20:01] ikonia: You can always install lilo on Ubuntu. [20:01] chavs: ^^, does not work with UEFI, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide/ . ( WUBI is not supported here ) . [20:02] ikonia: I used to replace grub, but I got tired of fighting. [20:03] diego__: How are you attempting to install? [20:03] Bashing-om, so its good for 7 but not 8? [20:03] jhutchins: I've tried apt-get, [20:03] jhutchins: gdebi and qapt. [20:03] diego__: apt-get what? [20:04] diego__: To (RE-)install Kubuntu, one would have to delete the partitons (GParted) and now manually set up to install Kubuntu once more -IF- you have indeed uninstalled kubuntu . [20:04] jhutchins: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [20:04] diego__: What repositories do you have enabled? [20:05] chavs: I do not do WUBI, but yes, as I understand it, one can WUBI with windows 7 IF 7 is booting the legacy mode . [20:05] Bashing-om: I mean the desktop. [20:05] trinad: if you are trying to boot up a live dvd/usb then you need to first check the md5sum for the iso. if that is valid, then try reinstalling to usb or if using dvd, burn at a low speed to reduce burn errors (suggest 4X) [20:05] THere is no reason you can't have gnome, unity, and kde on ubuntu at the same time. [20:05] chavs: it's best nobody ever even consider using WUBI now. it's so massively flawed and hell to support. [20:06] diego__: What dependencies? Pastebin? [20:06] chavs: If you want linux-on-windows you might consider cygwin, or just run a VM. [20:08] diego__: We are aware that there are depency issues sine most of the desktop was removed when you attempted to remove mysql . So now we need to get all those libraries and files back. To do that we boot Kubuntu, run -> sudo apt-get upgrade <- and others to KNOW what is missing, and painstakingly put them back. [20:08] sine?since* [20:08] jhutchins: I'm not very familiar with pastebin. I tried sudo apt-get upgrade | pastebin, but it froze. [20:09] Bashing-om: I didn't read all the backlog, could you not just apt-get kubuntu-desktop? [20:09] airite thanks people [20:09] diego__: pastebinit [20:10] tgm4883: Yeah, that was where I was last night .. trying to get diego__ To do that -> sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop <- . still trying to get that done and see the results. [20:11] diego__: Bashing-om's suggestion is good, why not try that? [20:11] Bashing-om: ah, is he not doing it or is it not working? === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [20:11] tgm4883: We don't really know. [20:11] Bashing-om: jhutchins apt-get upgrade shows 0 upgraded, 0 installed, 0 removed, 0 not upgraded and no errors. But both install and --reinstall [20:12] jhutchins: i see [20:12] tgm4883: Presently ( since last night) xubuntu has been installed - i guess in an effort to save the data - and now having problems booting up Kubuntu .. sheesshh .. patience is a virtue ! [20:12] Thnaks squinty.. I am checking [20:13] Bashing-om: jhutchins apt-get upgrade shows 0 upgraded, 0 installed, 0 removed, 0 not upgraded and no errors. [20:13] But both install and --reinstall kubuntu-desktop show errors because of kde-workspace, plasma-desktop, plasma-netbook, software-properties-kde, and other 16 recommended application. [20:13] diego that from Xubuntu ? right ? We need to know the state of Kubuntu . [20:14] diego__: ^^ [20:15] tgm4883: Bashing-om jhutchins I do prefer kubuntu over xubuntu, I would be sad to have to give it up. [20:16] diego__: nobody is suggesting that [20:16] I created a new keyboard shortcut but it doesn't work [20:17] diego__ :There is no need to give it up, IF restoration fails, there is alway (RE-)install . [20:19] Bashing-om: tgm4883 jhutchins So I'm trying to do the install of kubuntu-desktop from xubuntu. following the dependencies led me to some mysql-client that had a cascade effect on the others. [20:19] diego__: I think what we are all wondering is, what is the output when you boot into the kubuntu partition and do 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop' [20:20] diego__: how did you install xubuntu? [20:20] Bashing-om: tgm4883 jhutchins I only have one partition. =S [20:21] diego__: how did you install xubuntu? [20:21] what happens if we install AMD processor Ubuntu OS on a laptop with Intel processor ? [20:21] How do I read installed documentation? [20:21] I apt-get install python-doc for example, but idk how to read it [20:21] trinad: you mean amd64? [20:22] *tgm4883 [20:22] trinad: amd64 is the arch name for 64-bit ubuntu, it's not specific to AMD processors, it's what you use for intel processors as well unless you have an (intanum?) processor [20:23] hello all [20:23] trinad: amd64 is named after the 64bit patent from amd. it works on intel too [20:23] tgm4883: Bashing-om I removed kubuntu-desktop by mistake, but before that I had a tty1 from which I installed xubuntu. [20:24] diego__: ok. So can you pastebin the output from doing 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop' [20:25] tgm4883: would that be sudo apt-get ... | pastebinit [20:25] tgm4883: ?? [20:25] diego__: yea I believe that would work [20:26] tgm4883: sorry, no. === zz_freyes is now known as freyes [20:26] DaddysGirfriend: it might be in /usr/share/doc [20:27] test de com [20:27] diego__: what do you mean no? [20:27] EriC^^, thanks [20:28] DaddysGirfriend: no problem [20:28] tgm4883: I did > sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop | pastebinit [20:28] i'm having a bug with a proxy issue when doing apt-get update failing [20:28] diego__: did you try sudo apt-get -f install [20:28] tgm4883: and I got Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [20:28] hey, I'm trying to do something, and I might not be going about it the right way. We have a bunch of servers installed all over the country and we're replacing the existing OS on them with Ubuntu. What I'd like to do is netboot them off of one of the existing servers at each facility, so I'd like to distribute a tftp directory and a mirror directory with only the files we need for installation. We have a CD with only the files we need for [20:28] installation, and that works fine but I can't seem to use memdisk to boot that CD (which makes sense, because all the docs say you can't use memdisk with linux, anyway) I tried unpacking the ISO into a directory and pointing the installer at that directory on a webserver, but it returns a series of debootstrap warnings, saying it can't download a bunch of packages, and then fails. There is almost nothing helpful in the logs on the webserver or on [20:28] installer (it doesn't, for example, look like it's actually trying to download them). Am I missing something obvious? [20:28] alexg-ubuntu: you need to tell apt-get to use a proxy [20:28] is there no way to get around such a proxy? [20:28] tgm4883: Failed to contact the server. [20:29] k1l: how do i do that? [20:29] hello can I post a question? [20:29] hmm [20:29] k1l: I don't know which proxy to use? [20:29] EriC^^: Yes didn't work [20:29] diego__: you have internet access on that machine? [20:29] diego__: what did it say? [20:29] Yes. [20:29] alexg-ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Setting_up_apt-get_to_use_a_http-proxy [20:29] alexg-ubuntu: dont you use a proxy?

How does one go about properly making sure the server stays secure? Does the private key need to be shared before hand? A verified cert has been installed. [20:30] alexg-ubuntu: well. talk to the admin then [20:30] k1l: no other way? [20:30] alexg-ubuntu: that is not a ubuntu issue. its a network issue you need to talk to the admin. [20:31] k1l: any way to detect a proxy? [20:31] Hi. [20:31] alexg-ubuntu: what is your issue at all? [20:31] diego__: can you pipe it to a file first? 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop > out.log 2>&1' then post out.log somewhere [20:32] why is it when I am user and i do sudo -i i can become root and it does not prompt me for password. yet root does have a password and it is set. [20:32] alexg-ubuntu: as mentioned, contact your network admin [20:32] k1l daftykins this is a backup-trouble shooting ubuntu install/partition the main it is not linux friendly [20:32] zCoder: that sounds like you already broke it. [20:33] zCoder: because you don't need a password to switch to a different user when you have root privs [20:33] alexg-ubuntu: what? [20:33] alexg-ubuntu: can you rephrase that? i can't follow your English. [20:35] zCoder: cause you're on the sudoers list and have privileges, and it seems that you have added NOPASSWD to it [20:37] tgm4883: Bashing-om I'm getting an error with pastebinit. [20:37] diego__: did you do that last command I gave you? You should have the log in out.log now [20:38] tgm4883: Bashing-om Failed to contact the server: [Errno socket error] [Errno -2] Name or service not known [20:38] my synaptics touchpad stopped working, dmesg | tail is here http://paste.debian.net/130448/ [20:38] I have the file, is there another way to post it?

[20:38] !ask | X_f_C_e [20:38] X_f_C_e: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:38] X_f_C_e: that's the point of this channel. [20:38] !ask | X_f_C_e [20:39] I have just formatted my pc. I want to change the mount location of my home folder to /dev/sda7 (the partition is already there) [20:39] In one room I have a pc which runs Lubuntu. In another one I have a laptop running Lubuntu and is connected to a printer, acting as a print server. Network printing was set up and is in good working order. My problems started when with a Chromebook running the crouton script with Ubuntu trusty + Xfce, I wanted to print. I would like to print from the Chromebook using the network printing, but from what I have read on th [20:39] e internet there are issues. I read, in fact, that beacause it's an 'arm' processor means that it is not compatible with cups etc.. What do you suggest doing? [20:39] k1l: ah, beat me to it :) [20:39] hello [20:40] hello [20:40] help me [20:40] X_f_C_e: i think you're out of options, crouton isn't even really a supported installation type of ubuntu. [20:40] Hello, suddenly that " allow executing file as program Option " can't be checked any more !? [20:40] i cant install any application [20:41] How to get FIDO key working on Ubuntu? [20:41] rohi: explain with more detail on one line [20:41] X_f_C_e: I'd tend to agree with daftykins. It's not really Ubuntu. [20:41] rohi: ask a technical question with information and errormessages (in a pastebin). [20:41] :( [20:41] yes [20:41] that's odd [20:41] i didnt installing application [20:41] X_f_C_e: whats odd? [20:41] I can do everything with it [20:42] it works beautifully and fast [20:42] X_f_C_e: no you can't. You just haven't found the things you can't do yet [20:42] help me [20:42] ok [20:42] rohi: what is your native language? [20:42] please give me solution [20:42] rohi: "my car is broken, help me" we cant help you withou info and error [20:42] X_f_C_e: out of curiosity, are you sure it's ARM and not x86?

Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list file [20:44] /home/rohi/Desktop/Reaver Pro.exe [20:45] X_f_C_e: You should be able to print to cups, cups can serve the printer in a variety of formats. Processor has nothing to do wiht it. Cups is maintained by Apple for it's OSs. [20:45] rohi: reaver is not support here [20:45] then [20:45] X_f_C_e: If you can't, then that's something to ask the support channel for the software on the chromebook. [20:45] jhutchins, thanks mate.. [20:45] but i cant install my netsetter too [20:46] rohi: how are you trying to install it ? [20:46] usb modem [20:46] no, not "what is it" "how are you trying to install it" [20:46] file maneger there file is there [20:46] mmm jhutchins the chromebook 'people' don't really want you installing Ubuntu, I suppose...Therefore, is like asking to help fix something that their competitor cannot fix [20:47] rohi: and what are you doing with the file ? [20:47] rohi: DOn't be silly, that's an exe file. [20:47] before showing An error occurring while.... [20:47] rohi: and what are you doing with the file ? [20:47] rohi: You do understand that Linux is not just free Windows, right? [20:47] dubble clik [20:47] ya i understand [20:47] rohi: what is the name of the file you are double clicking on [20:47] X_f_C_e: I think he was talking about asking in #crouton [20:47] rohi: Windows installers aren't going to run on Ubuntu. [20:47] betel modem [20:48] rohi: You need to find native Linux drivers for the modem. [20:48] rohi: what is the name of the file you are double clicking on [20:48] ikonia: It's the windows installer. [20:48] tgm4883, mmm alright.. [20:48] exe file i guess [20:48] rohi: Once you get the right drivers, you can control it with netmanager plugins or other pppoe software. [20:48] btw tgm4883 What I have is a SAMSUNG EXYNOS5 [20:49] tgm4883: Bashing-om pastebin.com/enLmDRrb [20:49] ARMv7 Processor rev 4 [20:49] /home/rohi/Downloads/aircrack-ng-1.1.tar.gz [20:49] i tried this file too\ [20:49] raver pro windows installer. not that its bad to run not native linux programs its even the wifi-hacking software at all. so i guess rohi needs to find another place for helping hacking the neighbours wifi [20:49] *reaver [20:49] i did suggest rohi go to #ubuntu-in [20:49] I suggest you actually use windows [20:49] yes right but how can i hack the password [20:49] as it appears you are trying to use windows software [20:49] diego__: Look'n . so far not real bad. [20:49] rohi: wifi hacking is not supported in here. [20:49] and you are trying to use linux software without any sort of basic research [20:50] diego__: ok, lets pastebin one more thing. "sudo apt-get update > aptupdate.log 2>&1" then pastebin aptupdate.log [20:50] rohi: This is not how you manage software in Ubuntu. Ubuntu has customized packages built to match it's defaults and libraries, you install them through the software center. Packages you download from third party sources are usually not built for Ubuntu and probably won't work. [20:50] rohi: in some countries its even illegal to help you. so dont ask in here anymore [20:50] ok [20:50] \thanks [20:50] i m going to uninstall ubantu [20:51] rohi: For software that's not in the main repositories, there are "PPAs", but those can be risky, ask about the PPA here before using it. [20:51] +919962766672 my whatsapp no [20:51] friends reply me there [20:51] rohi: no [20:51] rohi: This will be true no matter which distribution of Linux you use. [20:51] diego__: Presntly, like right now, are you booted into the (K)ubuntu install ? [20:52] friends follow me on whatsapp [20:52] we will talk thre [20:52] Bashing-om: diego__ only has one install [20:53] hi all [20:53] tgm4883: OK. sheeshh, as Kubuntu is no longer installed, there is no fixing it . [20:53] tgm4883: Bashing-om http://pastebin.com/PyC3AW6h [20:54] how can I discover if my port is opened or closed for the world in ubuntu 14.10? [20:54] Simplar: what port ? [20:54] Bashing-om: there wasn't a reinstall. He installed xubuntu from a tty in his kubuntu install [20:54] ikonia: 6112 for example [20:54] Simplar: Do you have software listening on that port? [20:54] Simplar: that will be closed [20:54] Simplar: netstat -tulpen [20:54] Simplar: on your internet facing IP? grc.com [20:54] Bashing-om: the kubuntu install is the only one that exists for him [20:54] Simplar: netstat -anuptv | grep LISTEN [20:54] ikonia: Man, that's one heck of an assumption. [20:55] Simplar: and to make it short: if there is no program listening on that port that is "not open" as you call that on windows [20:55] jhutchins: not really, by default it's closed [20:55] Simplar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW [20:55] ikonia: Unless something's listening on it. Ports are not closed by default. [20:55] tgm4883: Bashing-om And then autoremoved kubuntu-desktop [20:56] jhutchins: ikonia i think the average joe user got a wrong idea of "port is closed" [20:56] jhutchins: a not open port is a closed port [20:56] diego_: since you ran the update successfully, try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop' and see if you get the same dependency errors [20:56] ikonia: If there's nothing listening on the port, it open/closed is an irrelevant characteristic. [20:56] there is a program [20:56] which uses the port [20:56] jhutchins: of course it's relevent [20:56] tgm4883: oh ! .. then we are talking the xubuntu desktop, and now want to restore the Kubuntu desktop . [20:56] if you close the port by the firewall - it doesn't matter if there is something listening, it's blocked [20:56] ikonia: Not really. If nothing's listening, it doesn't matter. [20:56] Bashing-om: yes! [20:57] jhutchins: yes, if nothing is listening then there is no discussion [20:57] tarpit all the ports! [20:57] Simplar: So you want to know if it's accessible from outside? [20:57] :) [20:57] jhutchins: yes [20:57] ikonia: In this case, it matters. [20:57] it's a hosting bot, but nobody can join the game i have hosted [20:57] it shouldn't [20:57] including myself [20:57] Simplar: Does the system have an external interface/address? [20:57] as the defalut ufw rules should be blocking that [20:57] but it shows up on server [20:57] lol [20:58] ikonia: You're assuming ifw is installed and running. DId he mention that? [20:58] Simplar: Does the system have an external interface/address? [20:58] jhutchins: if it's a default ubuntu insall it is installed and running [20:58] Well, let me explain it a bit. [20:58] jhutchins: it's worth checking [20:58] This Ubuntu is on bridged virtual machine [20:59] tgm4883: same unmet dependencies [20:59] I run Ubuntu on virtual machine from Windows === sammyboy is now known as alpha [20:59] and having router here [20:59] diego_: hmm [20:59] diego_: tgm4883 :: " Depends: software-properties-kde but it is not going to be installed " >> let's try this and see what bites -> sudo apt-get install software-properties-kde < -. [20:59] Bashing-om: diego_ yep, that was my next suggestion [20:59] Simplar: Does the system have an external interface/address? [21:00] 5.228.127.189 [21:00] tgm4883: Bashing-om fewer unmet dependencies with same format as before... python3-pykde4 [21:00] I have a Debian 7 in a nearby virtual machine and it successfully hosts a website. [21:00] tgm4883: Bashing-om actually only that one. [21:00] but here on Ubuntu I cannot open all properly [21:00] I did sudo ufw allow 6112 [21:00] diego_: ok, what about 'sudo apt-get install python3-pykde4' [21:01] Simplar: likely your router does not allow viewing of hosted content inside, from inside. [21:01] Simplar: Can you ping the server externally? [21:01] I met Richard Stallman a week ago AMA [21:01] Hi, I ran an update on 14.04 and after a reboot, it just goes to a blinking white cursor on a black page. I cannot switch to another tty using ctrl+alt+f1-6 [21:02] I can ssh into the box just fine though [21:02] Simplar: Never mind, I can ping it, let me run nmap. [21:02] Good evening. I am pretty new to Ubuntu, can someone give me a good Tutorial / Things you need to know ? Would appreciate it ! :) [21:02] eagle1776: I'll bite. Does that sound like a support question to you? [21:02] this is a home system it looks like port forwarding is not setup correctly [21:02] TheKernel-Work: i had a similar issue after updating 14.04 to 14.10 [21:02] the ping is the gateway device responding [21:03] kdepim-runtime, then akonadi-server, then akonadi-backend-mysql, then mysql-client-core-5.5 and mariadb-client-core-5.5... [21:03] (or appears to be) [21:03] TheKernel-Work: it turned out to be a missing dbus package [21:03] interesting [21:03] Simplar: It sees the port as closed: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8841245/ [21:04] hello there [21:04] Simplar: I would check the docs for ifw. [21:04] Simplar: did you setup dmz for the debian vm? [21:04] diego_: ok, lets try something [21:04] tgm4883: Bashing-om mysql-client-t.t is doing things... !! [21:04] do anyone knows answer about my problem? Why can't I find eth0 nor eth1 [21:04] thanks in advance [21:04] tgm4883: Bashing-om 5.5** [21:04] tgm4883: I thought this was a channel dedicated to talking about linux is it not?

[21:06] TheKernel-Work: any messages in your logs about what's going on? [21:07] imbezol, I stayed at 14.04 [21:07] not that I can see [21:07] imbezol, dmesg looks fine [21:07] Simplar: It might also be interesting to run nmap locally to make sure the server is listening, and to run the netstat commands given earlier. iptables -L should show you any rules associated with the port. [21:07] jhutchins, can you nmap that again? [21:07] tgm4883: Bashing-om but going back,akonadi-backend-mysql had a pop up error with mariadb-server-core-5.... [21:07] port 6312 [21:07] it looks like it's a port forwarding problem [21:08] df: cannot read table of mounted file systems [21:08] I feel good about this [21:08] looking at the echo response it's from the gateway device (router I assume) rather than a server [21:08] TheKernel-Work: do you see the /sbin/getty processes running? [21:08] Simplar: Not visible, that's probably blocked by the firewall. [21:08] tgm4883: I tried following the packages with dependencies Bashing-om [21:08] Simplar: Run it on 6112 [21:08] jhutchins, fine, second please [21:08] diego_: Bashing-om I'd suggest disabling all of the extra repos you've got enabled, and then doing a new update and isntall of kubuntu-desktop package [21:08] imbezol, yes on tty1-6 [21:09] jhutchins, try [21:09] TheKernel-Work: not something silly like the keyboard's not working? [21:09] hey all, is there an easy way to check if USB is correctly working? [21:09] TheKernel-Work: is the X process running? [21:10] I am attempting to add a USB TV Tuner, and it seems to disconnect randomly [21:10] RedPenguin: what's your issue exactly? [21:10] tgm4883: We're getting somewhere. This package actually says it's not part of the Ubuntu repositories... [21:10] imbezol, yeah I checked that, maybe my duel monitors? [21:10] MythTV will say it can use the card, then the next minute act like the card is disconnected [21:10] TheKernel-Work: ah yeah.. i'd try display port at a time to see if it works with only one monitor [21:11] dmesg doesn't really say anything other than firmware [21:11] imbezol, I get the splash screen [21:11] Simplar: Still says closed. [21:12] tgm4883: diego_ I had thought we had done that _ disabling 3rd party software last night (??) . [21:12] imbezol, I'll try just one === Artemis3v_ is now known as Artemis3v [21:12] tgm4883: Bashing-om Could that be at the bottom of everything? [21:12] jhutchins, what can I do to open it? Router is D-Link DIR-300 [21:13] tgm4883: Bashing-om Yes we did. [21:14] Simplar: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8841359/ [21:14] it looks like it's a port forwarding problem [21:14] rather than a firewall [21:14] diego_: Bashing-om I 100% know that it is still enabled, as it's in the apt-get update log you posted [21:15] Simplar: Like I said, run nmap and netstat locally, see if it's listening on localhost. Check the docs, see if you need to allow an address/range. [21:15] Simplar: I don't think it's firewalled, it would show "filtered". [21:15] tgm4883: Bashing-om This is the output from last command that was stranger http://pastebin.com/KQQw3ksf [21:16] diego_: yes, you have a very tangled web of stuff [21:16] diego_: tgm4883 :; Then now we need to find out the why 'mysql' is call ing home .. from what source ? Before dealing with the kubuntu desktop. -> ls -al /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql* | pastbinit // look'n at http://pastebin.com/KQQw3ksf . [21:16] diego_: basically, you can't install both mariadb and mysql [21:16] jhutchins, locally on ubuntu or locally on windows? [21:16] hellome, need help with u-server14.04, 3 nics, with openvswitch (3 bridges, ABC). I want to know how to isolate the host 100%, from all nics, respectively how to attach the host to one of the bridges. [21:17] Bashing-om: calling home? [21:17] tgm4883: Bashing-om I didn't know I had mariadb, but akonadi-backend-mysql required it. [21:17] imbezol, (gconftool-2:10638): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: [21:18] diego_: backup your mysql databases, uninstall mysql, then install maria [21:18] diego_: For now we want to get rid of 'mysql' thus this makes no sense to try and do "sudo apt-get install mariadb-server-core-5.5" . [21:18] Simplar: Start with ubuntu. [21:18] imbezol: that isn't even close to the issue we're dealing with right now [21:18] tgm4883: one thing at a time? [21:19] Bashing-om: diego_ are we in fact trying to get rid of mysql? [21:19] Simplar: That might also show that the program opened the port then crashed, so that it's there for nmap to reach but not responding. Filtered by the software or crashed are my guesses. [21:19] tgm4883: Bashing-om imbezol No, I use that a lot. [21:19] imbezol: the issue we're working on is massive dependency issues when trying to reinstall kubuntu-desktop due to many extra repos enabled [21:20] TheKernel-Work: yeah that looks familiar.. i just don't know exactly what i did to fix it.. if you do a "dpkg -l | grep systemd" is it listed? [21:20] jhutchins, how you executed nmap? 'sudo nmap andwhatshere??' [21:20] imbezol, it is [21:20] tgm4883: ok. is it possible for him to stay with mysql and not move to maria? i was thinking no [21:20] tgm4883: diego_ That was the start of this whole situation, diego_ removing the application (mysql), and in that process taking the Kubuntu desk top out with that partitial removal . [21:21] tgm4883: i'll stay out of it :) [21:21] diego_: Bashing-om I still suggest removing all of the mariadb stuff, removing the extra repos, then doing an update then attempt installing it [21:21] Bashing-om: diego_ well which is it. Are you trying to keep mysql or remove it? [21:21] imbezol: thanks anyway. [21:21] tgm4883: diego, 100% agree ! [21:22] imbezol: I appreciate you jumping in to help, but I've been at this for an hour or so and Bashing-om's help goes back to last night it seems [21:22] Hi, is there some voice navigation app for Ubuntu? === Owner__ is now known as Guest34111 [21:22] tgm4883: Bashiin I see, I removed mysql because I was trying to upgrade it. But I do need to keep it. I don't need mariadb. [21:23] TheKernel-Work: what's the output of "ls -ld /home//.dbus" [21:23] diego_: not sure why you thought you had to remove it in order to upgrade it [21:23] Im having a problem with booting into linux. i used the net installer to install 14.04 (which was on a memory stick). i'm certain that i formatted the harddrives on my laptop and not on the usb, but if i take the usb out and reboot, i just get a black screen with a flashing underscore. if i leave it in, ubuntu loads fine. i thought it might be an issue with boot priority, but after chan [21:23] *changing the boot order, nothing seems to change [21:24] imbezol, its own'd by root, that doesn't look right [21:24] TheKernel-Work: change the user and group to your user [21:24] basichash: make sure grub is installed on the hdd [21:24] diego_: Bashing-om out of curiosity, would it be extremely difficult to just backup data and reinstall? [21:24] basichash: and not the partition like sda1 but the disk like sda [21:24] Bashing-om: tgm4883 I didn't find an update option. [21:24] k1l: how can i check? [21:24] you could image it off with clonezilla [21:25] TheKernel-Work: do it recursively [21:25] basichash: bootrepair is a good thing if you run a usb drive anyway [21:25] !bootrepair | basichash [21:25] ok got it [21:25] anyways [21:25] basichash: see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [21:27] hello people [21:27] I got problem with java [21:27] can anybody help me?

[21:28] FilthyMacNasty: no I want 127.0.0.1 to answer http://foo.blablabla [21:28] diego_: disable the third party repos, then we can try and continue [21:28] foo is the subdomain [21:29] imbezol, most my dirs are owned by root, no idea how that happened, recursively changing now [21:29] KucukMubasir: are you using apache2? [21:29] gamzera_: I know how to install java from ubnutu, but not how to fix oracle's java. [21:29] FilthyMacNasty: yes [21:29] gamzera_: If you used their packages you'll have to ask them for help. [21:29] TheKernel-Work: yikes. never know.. it might just work after fixing that [21:29] jhutchins: which I would use if not oracles? :O [21:30] gamzera_: Ubuntu packages. [21:30] you must edit the virtual hosts in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf [21:30] could you point me out how to install ubuntu ones? [21:30] sorry that was for KucukMubasir [21:30] !java [21:30] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.

[21:31] diego_: no, I mean everything in /etc/init.d/sources.list.d/ [21:31] gamzera_: The problem is that oracle assumes you already know java and know what you're doing. [21:31] not everyone is java programer.. [21:31] can't you just install default-jre? [21:31] diego_: It is your call, we are here to help, we must work from a default install - no other interferences. Show us -> cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list | pastebinit <- .

I forgot to add ServerName nagios.localhost to my apache2.conf file [21:33] TheKernel-Work: nope it doesn't.. perhaps the permissions issue is wider reaching than just your homedir?

[21:39] If I forget my root password can I reset it without reinstalling? [21:39] FilthyMacNasty: should do [21:39] gamzera_: as FilthyMacNasty said [21:39] !password | HeathHayle [21:39] HeathHayle: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords === elliotd123__ is now known as elliotd123 [21:40] HeathHayle: but root doesnt have a password at all. we use sudo on ubuntu [21:40] diego_: tgm4883 :: ^^YES ! Once more, fire up a text editor and on each line place a '#" character at the start of the line, so they will not be parsed . LATER when the system is stable, one at a time we can deal with putting them back in-service. [21:40] k1l: Oh lol not I am trying to turn off the wallet and it's asking for a password [21:40] HeathHayle: what? [21:41] HeathHayle: if its asking for your user password on every login set the wifi to be usable by all users. then it will stop asking [21:42] k1l: I Turned on the password wallet but trying to turn it off but it's asking for a password [21:42] FilthyMacNasty: it does..

[21:43] k1l: That worked I thought I had tried that lol thanks [21:44] HeathHayle: sometimes it is not that hard : [21:44] :) [21:44] gamzera_: icedtea-7-plugin is installed? [21:45] k1l: yes.

(deb files) [21:48] diego_: tgm4883 :: " comment the .list.save files? " no not really as they are not parsed, just a good idea so none get miised that are parsed . [21:49] k1l: I Use chrome. [21:50] k1l: when I check java here https://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre [21:50] tgm4883: Bashing-om Then they're done.

[21:52] Bashing-om: wife's PC (had broken packages going 12.04 -> 14.04) is running like a champ now. thanks for the help yesterday. [21:52] Bashing-om: tgm4883 Sounds good to me.

When the Intel D945GCLF was released I got a free sample (dual core Atom) [21:55] Bashing-om: although she insists on KDE so it's actually closer to Kubuntu. She didn't care for gnome at all. [21:56] kde is pretty [21:57] Bashing-om: tgm4883 purging mariadb allowed me to install kubuntu-desktop!!! [21:57] Bashing-om: tgm4883 it's doing it. [21:57] diego_: \o/ [21:57] jimmy51v_: Nothing wrong with the preference for KDE, was my introduction to 'buntu .. IF you are knowledgable with KDE, hang loose here, we are trying to rebuid one presently. There is no substitute for experience. [21:58] Bashing-om: what do you mean rebuild one? [21:58] "there is no substitute for experience" nice quote [21:58] diego_: Great, NOW we are making progress. [21:58] FilthyMacNasty: are you familiar with Nagios? I know this question isn’t right one to ask here [21:58] oh [22:00] KucukMubasir: not familiar with nagios but I am pretty flexible [22:00] hello everyone, is this the place to ask what to do with my Ubuntu new install? my print service remains inactive and can't mount other partition (Crashed with /usr/lib/gvfsd-smb-browse with SIGSEGV in match_symbol) repeatedly...

I'll send you a postcard if you let me. [22:08] tgm4883: diego__ :: yepper, for piece of mind -> sudo apt-get -f install , sudo dpkg -C <- .. depending, then try and restart. [22:09] Chank: you are talking about the global menue? [22:09] yea the menu bar at the top [22:09] Bashing-om: How's it going, my son? Are you 'picking them' again? [22:09] k1l: currently when unmaximized i get the menu inside the window itself [22:10] Chank: when it is maximized, the title bar would be there anyway, so it's the same, but anyway you will probably either have to export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 in your session or remove a bunch of appmenu packages [22:10] k1l: but when i maximize it leaves the window and adds to the global title bar [22:10] trism: tried both [22:10] mic-w: Yeah, seems I am 'haunted' // Or I make it so ? sometimes I just do not know . [22:10] Chank: so you want it always in the panel? [22:10] global menu bar is quite terrible on portrait monitors [22:10] k1l: i want it always in the window [22:11] tgm4883: Bashing-om I restarted it and it works. I can choose from xubuntu and kubuntu. [22:11] Chank: well. when maximized the panel is the window bar, on unity [22:11] hello, my fresh Ubuntu has print service inactive and can't mount other partition (Crashed with /usr/lib/gvfsd-smb-browse with SIGSEGV in match_symbol) repeatedly... Where can I get best help for such things? [22:11] diego_: awesome, glad it works [22:11] Bashing-om: Ah, get out of it... You LOVE it, you know you do!! (lol) [22:12] diego__: as tgm4883 says \0/ ! .. What about the outputs of -f install and dpkg -C ( from above ? ) [22:12] If I've done a default Ubuntu 14.04 install, with lvm, does that mean I can modify the lvm after the install? (ie: create a separate logical volume for /home (and others) and mount them there)? [22:12] 70 [22:13] hi [22:13] FilthyMacNasty: ok, sorry. sometimes we have mint-promoters in here who tell everyone to use just mint even when they dont ask a question in that direction at all. i am sorry, got confused when you mixed the nicknames [22:13] tgm4883: Bashing-om http://paste.ubuntu.com/8842047/ [22:13] mikja [22:13] diego__: looking at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8842047/ . [22:14] Bashing-om: tgm4883 dpkg -C didn't give me anything. [22:15] k1l: right and for normal small monitors that works fine [22:15] diego_: tgm4883 :: We are good to go ! // so diego_ , where do you want to go from here now that we have a stable system . [22:15] k1l: but unfortunately portrait setups werent considered (amongst many other unity things) [22:16] Bashing-om: tgm4883 Postcards. If you don't mind. [22:16] hi all [22:16] Bashing-om: tgm4883 =) [22:16] Chank: i can see that point for not-maximized windows and that is the reason they enabled the setting. but not for maximized windows, no. [22:17] diego_: Naww on post cards, ya can always find me here and/or ubuntuforums.org // You now want to S L O W L Y activate the 3rd party repos and see what happens ? [22:17] I have had trouble with moving my home directory to a different partition === jack is now known as Guest6869 [22:18] hi [22:18] provocative name there [22:18] I can say "sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed" - but how do I find out which mode I am in? [22:18] I love linux even more ;) [22:19] I think I need to restore my old fstab and reformat my partition with gparted then try again [22:20] any suggestions? [22:20] a fresh install might be easier and safer [22:20] Bashing-om: tgm4883 Alrigt then. That was like my introduction towards IRC community. That was awesome! thank you. [22:20] kulus919: Usually something like: sudo usermod --home /newhomeplace -m username [22:20] kulus919: ( for moving your home directory someplace new) [22:21] Port got opened [22:21] :) [22:22] genii how do I specify a different partition? [22:22] k1l: but if you divide a portrait monitor in half [22:22] the global task bar is now half a screen away [22:23] kulus919: Since normally you would be mounting the partition someplace, just use /otherpartitionmountpoint for /newhomeplace [22:23] Chank: and the window in maximized would be as much away. so the point is not valid. [22:23] like sda6? [22:23] ? [22:24] kulus919: No, that's the raw device [22:24] if you split the portrait monitor to behave like two halves [22:24] if you maximize to the bottom half [22:24] diego_: Before moving on, let's try and clean up the cruft -> sudo apt-get sutoremove <- . See then if the system remains stable. [22:24] autoremove* [22:24] your menubar disappears and unhelpfull goes to the top of the monitor [22:24] *unhelpfully [22:25] I only ask these (stupid) questions bc I don't feel like breaking stuff and suffering bc of it [22:25] Chank: so the monitor acts as 2 monitors stapled? [22:25] esentially [22:25] id even be content with a titlebar on each half [22:25] imastupidguest: You break it, you learn ! We all do that . [22:25] Chank: than it got a panel at the half way. [22:26] works for me [22:26] like /media/home? [22:26] how do i enable it [22:26] If I've done a default Ubuntu 14.04 install, with lvm, does that mean I can modify the lvm after the install? (ie: create a separate logical volume for /home (and others) and mount them there)? [22:26] Chank: unity draws a panel on every monitor. [22:26] i get a shadow line where the menubar should be [22:26] but no menubar [22:26] kulus919: You mount /dev/sda6 someplace into the filesystem. If it's to be permanent then you make an /etc/fstab entry for it. If it's to move all the system users home directories into then eventually it will be mounted to /home, but you need to temporarily then mount it some other place like /mnt and then sudo cp -arpv /home/* /mnt ...and then do the fstab change. [22:27] Chank: if you monitor cuts the desktop and reshuffles that , that is not the issue of unity :/ [22:27] im splitting it in the window manager [22:28] kulus919: I have to leave soon and so fo not have enough time to properly explain about mounting, etc. But hopefully another will assist. If not, I return tomorrow. [22:28] thx genii [22:28] Chank: ?? so its just a portrait mode. then the windows are not maximized. [22:30] k1l: windows are clearly maximized as evidenced by the global taskbar crap [22:31] FilthyMacNasty: I think this time you can help, I can reach the page with localhost:4568 but not with 127.0.0.1:4568 . why might this be? [22:31] Chank: i dont get your setup there. [22:32] let me take a screenshot [22:33] Chank: either its a regular monitor just in vertical orientation and you call it maximized even its just "half-maximized" (but it should have the menue bar then in the window) or you have special monitor setting which cuts the horizontal view into 2 pieces and changes it to a vertical staple. but that is not the problem of unity then. you could file a bug and see if unity got a chance to check the hardware mode maybe [22:35] k1l: my problem is that specific "one case fits all" decisions were made [22:35] and the developers stay ignorant to anything that doesnt fit their ideal world [22:36] Chank: no. [22:36] k1l: yes. [22:36] Chank: i still dont get your setup. [22:36] aka: launcher must be on left edge [22:36] k1l: im waiting for screenshot to upload [22:37] i still think it should work like you want it if you dont have a special mode in your monitor which overrides the unity [22:37] I feel Ubuntu is way to slow [22:37] where do i start debugging this? [22:38] I am open to suggestions for replacing the 12.10 repository. [22:38] its not a mode in the monitor [22:38] !saucy | jason1 [22:38] jason1: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 17th, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/saucy [22:38] jason1: Sorry, wrong link :) [22:38] !eolupgrade | jason1 [22:38] jason1: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [22:39] Yes, thats the correct one :) [22:39] k1l: http://dtbot.com/ss.png [22:39] Feel free to privmsg. [22:41] Is thaat the only suggestion, give me options. [22:41] Chank: what is that bar at the bottom? [22:41] Feel free to privmsg with unofficial options. [22:41] gnome-panel, why? [22:41] jason1: dont wait until your ubuntu is EOL. but for that option its too late [22:42] Chank: that is no a clean unity? [22:42] explain "no a clean unity?" [22:43] 12.10 is not Precise is it? [22:43] jason1: 12.10 ist Quantal. [22:44] In that case this page looks flawed. [22:44] I created a new keyboard shortcut but it doesn't work, what's wrong [22:44] Any other suggestions? [22:44] Chank: the gnome-panel. and the windows are not maximized. maximized means 1 window at all monitor [22:44] if I type the command manually inside a terminal, it works [22:44] k1l: windows are infact maximized [22:45] jason1: if you dont like the answer stop asking again and again. you waited too long to upgrade and that is not to blame ubuntu or us. change to the old-releases and make the upgrades to the 14.04 [22:45] also gnome-panel is irrelevant to the issue === lolwhat is now known as thelolpolice [22:47] i recently bought a mobile broadband simcard for my x240, but i'm having trouble getting it to work. does anyone know exactly what information is required by network manager when setting up a new mobile broadband connection? [22:47] btw its a german o2 sim [22:48] Chank: no. cant be maximized.either their should be another panel between the 2 firefox windows (if they were maximized and it were 2 monitors) or its not maximized and the window should have the activated window menue showing, since its not maximized [22:48] hi, my computer does not have pageup/pagedown/home/end keys. I want to make a keyboard combination to do this. I know how to add keyboard shortcuts, but don't know what 'command' to put. Anyone know? [22:48] Chank: or: gnome-panel ruins the desktop [22:49] k1l: btw boot-repair worked a treat, so thanks for that [22:49] i can take a video of me right clicking the window and maximizing if it would make you happy [22:49] basichash: :) [22:49] max_1: hello [22:49] max_1: you can use xmodmap to map other keys to these functions [22:49] the same result happens without gnome-panel [22:50] max_1: which key would you like to map to pageup? [22:50] Chank: then file a bug, since that behaviour is not intended. [22:50] EriC^^ I am thinking control + alt + left/right/up/down can do pageup/pagedown/home/end [22:54] Chank: i still think the gnome-panel is breaking stuff there looking how the panel spreads about the whole 4 virt desktops [22:55] max_1: install xbindkeys [22:55] k1l: this occurred even before gnome-panel was installed [22:55] max_1: sudo apt-get install xbindkeys [22:55] EriC^^ I have [22:55] k1l: its not one large panel, its 4 individual ones [22:55] test.. just seeing if I get the same message here from the bot that I got in another channel about not being able to post to the channel.

[23:00] k1l: ok.. I'll disconnect and attempt again. thanks [23:00] EriC^^ no ... [23:00] k1l: the other one that kills me is the forced left edge launcher [23:00] max_1: type below it Ctrl+Mod2 + Alt+Mod2 + Up [23:00] k1l: but its easy enough to hide it and install something more flexible [23:00] Chank: yes. that is a decision not to change that. [23:00] ok, i guess Up will be for pageup [23:01] ? [23:01] k1l: an irrelevant point after moving the ubuntu button to be a part of the launcher [23:01] night ppl [23:01] EriC^^ ok, didn't work ... maybe you can take a look at the file in a gist?

[23:47] a ok ok gracias === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [23:49] hi everyone! [23:51] I am running Ubuntu 12.04. I installed a new nvidia Geforce GTX 750ti today, and then installed the latest NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.58 driver. Since then firefox has acted particularly strange, with artefacts of the previous page remaining when I go to a new page. Also, the same [23:51] sometimes happens in gnome and other aspects of the system. Does anyone know how I can solve this please? [23:51] clarkk: how did you install nvidia [23:51] hi Ben64. I used the proprietry driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.58.run [23:51] clarkk: that method is not supported here [23:51] hmm, how should I do it? [23:52] the Additional Drivers tool [23:52] where do I get that? [23:52] it is in ubuntu [23:54] Ben64 it says no proprietry drivers are installed on this system [23:54] clarkk: yeah you need to undo the one you installed and use that tool [23:55] Ben64 but what do I do with it? [23:55] select a driver to install and it will install it [23:57] Ben64 there doesn't seem to be a drop down menu or browse to file option in it. What is the first step, please? [23:57] Hi. I'm in search of some assistance with file permissions. I'm developing a program but before every build I need a remote folder deleted. I was able to do this with putty fairly easily, the only problem is I don't want my password in plaintext. I created another user and group and gave rwx to the parent dir of the folder I need deleted. However, once the folder is recreated I lose the permissions that I gave the new group to that folder. [23:57] like i said, undo the one you installed first [23:57] ben64 also looking at this page, the drivers available using that tool are very old https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#NVIDIA_drivers_provided_by_the_Ubuntu_repositories === sins-_p is now known as sins- [23:59] there is a version 331. I wonder if that's fairly recent [23:59] and I wonder if it supports my card [23:59] clarkk: you might want to upgrade to 14.04 then
