XeHi all, I have a mac pro (cylinder) running Ubuntu 14.04 and when I installed the ATI drivers from the "Additional Drivers" page I rebooted and X starts but it doesn't show X on the screen. I have "nomodeset" appended to my kernel boot options.00:14
akurilinI'm on xmonad so I don't get any automounting and things like that00:14
hujoakurilin, cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/your_encrypted_device some_name00:14
hujoakurilin, you will get a new unencrypted device /dev/mapper/some_name00:15

dimii think it hasn't created a symbolic link00:30

badcomHi there00:30
kokuthujo: its still copying the files... it just says so far 50k files have been copied ok, 15 failed, still copying..00:31
dimihow do i figure out where I'm supposed to create a symbolic link?00:31
badcomI have Windows 7 installed and partition style is MBR. I have an unallocated partitions and when I try to install Ubuntu 14.04 is does not detect the partitions neither my Windows. It only deletecs /dev/sda. How can I get around this?00:32
NoobuntuI have Ubuntu 14 in my pendrive, trying to install on my Toshiba Satellite. The HD is empty. Chose the first option on the instalator. Computer rebooted. Even with the right boot order asks me to install again and doesnt boot the OS. Run instalator again and tells me that Ubuntu is already installed. Went to the partition menu and can see it there occupying a good part of the HD. Tried over 10 times, same outcome. Any suggestion?00:33
squintydimi: my copy reports the following (14.04)  ls -al /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.100:33

hujoNoobuntu, change to boot order in your bios to favour the HDD over the pendrive00:34
hujokokut, and you're sure your disk is healthy?00:34
dimithanks, squinty00:34
squintydimi:  yw00:34
kokuthujo: yea, 100% sure, those files were deleted tho. Can i remove the live cd after booting?00:35
hujokokut, not exactly sure what you mean?00:35
squintybadcom:  you could use gparted to preset the new linux partitions before starting the installation.  usually the installer partitioneer will pick up the new partition(s) then00:36
pryordaanyway to disable landscape-common on su -. its giving me the system stats everytime i sudo su -00:36
k1lpryorda: dont do that.00:36
k1lpryorda: use sudo -i00:36
kokuthujo: im on the live cd at the moment but i would like to remove the cd and continue using ubuntu, is that possible?00:36
hujobadcom, does parted detect the partition when booting, say, a live cd?00:37
badcomsquinty, I tried using gparted but it showed only 1 single unallocated partition00:37
hujokokut, I'm afraid I don't know00:37
badcomhujo, gparted only shows my whole disk unallocated00:38
kokuthujo: okay dont worry00:38
pryordasudo -i?00:38
badcomhujo I guess it should show the partition where my Windows is installed?00:38
hujobadcom, I'd suggest you check the drive's health first - last time partition tables vanished on me the drive said goodbye a couple hours later00:39
squintybadcom:  might be something applicable at  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI00:39
pryordahttps://gist.github.com/anonymous/9824da16015255f0e44d00:39
pryordaeven sudo -i00:39
hujobadcom, unless of course the partition table was wiped accidentally00:39
akurilinhujo: the LUKS approach seems to work pretty well, thanks for the tips00:40
k1lpryorda: my comment was not about the landscape stats. it was about your wrong use of su00:41
liuxgdoes anyone know how to install a bootable usb stick with ubuntu image? I do not want to have  a liveusb.00:42
hujoakurilin, you're welcome00:42
Mightcould3Hey guys, how do i change the monitor that's the default fullscreen menu? i have 3 screens and when i full screen a game its always the left one. i want it in the center. this is easily done in windows but i cannot find the option for it on ubuntu 14.0400:42
badcomI was not expecting to have so much trouble to have Windows/Ubuntu on my PC. It must be this UEFI thing...00:43
EriC^^badcom: what's the problem?00:43
hujobadcom, have you tried changing the boot order?00:44
Mightcould3badcom, doubt that. my 2 office machines have asrock mobos with a uefi. they have both windows 7 and ubu. upon boot the grub shows and i can select which os to boot to00:44
squintyliuxg:  two sticks or livedvd plus one stick.   start normal installation but make sure the installer is pointing to the usb you want to install to.  key points are the installer partitioner and where to install grub  (ie   /dev/sdb  if stick is the only usb )00:44
smacktalkis there a good game package for kids?  specifically I have 7 and 10 y/o boys00:44
Mightcould3Badcom, make sure you partition your drives properly and before installing windows. also dont use the windows utility to do the parts either00:45
badcomthe problem is not with the boot. It's that Ubuntu won't detect my partitions i.e: the partition where Windows is installed00:45
Mightcould3wont detect or wont mount?00:45

smacktalk....and some educational packages?00:45

squintyliuxg:  if you want to use a full install usb stick on various machines, then using any (ie video) proprietary drivers is not recommended00:46
ielotrying to dabble in this field of art00:46
pryordak1l: meh...00:46
pryordasudo su - is no different the sudo -i00:46
Mightcould3smacktalk, i know that roloblox is a education game for kids that teaches them how to program00:46
hujobadcom, hmm, alright what happens when you turn on the machine without the pendrive?00:46
liuxgsquinty, thanks for your reply. I did that . however, the installed usb stick cannot be bootable on another pc. If I chose the bootloader to the usb stick, it crashes my pc grub. I think it removes my previous grub installation.00:46
badcomMightcould3, won't deletect. I mean, in the installation process it says that there's no other OS installed00:46
k1lpryorda: sure it is. its a difference in what env variables are called. on ubuntu please use sudo -i00:46
badcomhujo, it loads the Windows00:46
kokutEriC^^: hey man you there?00:47
EriC^^kokut: yeah, what's up?00:47
badcomI'm on my Windows right now00:47
Mightcould3badcom, are you trying to install ubuntu or do you have it installed now?00:47
badcomMightcould3, I'm trying to install Ubunto. I wanna have both Windows and Ubuntu00:48
EriC^^badcom: maybe os-prober can't find the windows .efi file00:48
kokutEriC^^: testdisk is taking a lot of time to copy the files, so far it has copied 110k files, but it says it failed to copy 51 of them, is there a way to tell which files failed to copy after if finishes? I don't think i enabled the create log file option00:48
EriC^^badcom: check what it's called in your efi partition or type efibootmgr -v and check it's name00:48
liuxgsquinty, if I take my installed ubuntu usb stick, my machine cannot even boot, and it boots to the grub command. I think it put the grub into the installed usb.00:48
squintyliuxg:  it shouldn't alter any of the grub setup on your pc grub00:48
pryordasudo su - calls all root envs00:48
pryordasudo -i calls what different ones?00:48
Mightcould3you should partition your drives before install, you'll need to run the live cd of your install, select the try option. use gparted to partition your drive and format the new part to ext4. then when you go to install select manual and select that new part (ext4) for install00:49
EriC^^badcom: modify /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft accordingly00:49
wasabiflipperhi00:49
liuxgsquinty, I tried a few times, and every time, it does crash my grub. I had to use grub-update to fix it. The installed usb is not bootable on another pc.00:49

pryordasudo -i looks at .login .profile and bashrc00:52
dimisquinty, I know where it is, but where am I supposed to link it to? that's what i don't know how to figure out00:52
Mightcould3well anyway imma go play warzone 2100. cheers!00:53
EriC^^kokut: no idea00:53
dimisquinty: it's where it's supposed to be, but i'm being told it's not there?00:53
EriC^^kokut: not sure if the files will copy with 0 byte size or what00:53
liuxgsquinty, have you tried this before? I just got stuck here. my grub got screwed up every time after the installation.00:53
kokutEriC^^: so far it copied 120k files, 62 failed00:54
squintydimi:  see if this helps   http://paste.ubuntu.com/8892051/00:55
kokutEriC^^: don't you think those are a it too many files? could it be copying something that was mounted or something? I cant believe i have so many files, all my ubuntu installation wasnt more than 20gb, i barely installed 10 programs and this is supposed to be my home folder .private only...00:55

veryhappyhey guys, how can i build a single server image in ubuntu 14.04?03:14
veryhappyi mean the cluster not the apache server side includes.03:15
jmadero1evening all - I'm having some terrible boot times and curious what's going on - I've installed bootchart but I can't make sense of the results03:15
bubbasauresjmadero1, Have you tried a text boot to see whats going on?03:16
fenderubuntu español?03:16
jmadero1have not - not even sure how to do it, any wiki or anything03:16
jmadero1to be fair - I have several DE's installed03:16
bubbasaures!text | jmadero103:16
ubottujmadero1: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode03:16
jmadero1and I'm thinking it might be related to my nfs mounts03:17
bubbasauresjmadero1, Hitting the esc key right after grub does the same.03:17
veryhappyfender: ubuntu-es?03:17
veryhappy;)03:17
fenderyes gracias03:17
jmadero1and what would I be looking for during text boot?03:18
bubbasauresjmadero1, If it is sitting on something you should see it.03:18
jmadero1all right - will try it, thanks03:19
bubbasauresthis is where I would start anyway03:19
jmadero1it's crazy how complicated the bootchart graph is03:19
jmadero1it's a bit unusable ;)03:19
veryhappyok guys, one question: a single server image is like a cluster which appears as one single system right? then i should be able to combine all my systems that i have (all are ubuntu-14.04 amd64) so they should improve the speed.03:20
jmadero1second question is if it's worth me fresh installing to 14.10 or if the changes are so minor that I might as well stick on .0403:20
daftykins14.04 is LTS, that's reason enough to stay put03:21
veryhappyjmadero1: afaik long support is just for 14.04 so you better stick with that.03:21
bubbasauresjmadero1, 14.04 has 5 years support, 14.10 does not.03:21

liuxgbubbasaures, yes, the SDK goes in the ubuntu. Previously, I made a usb stick in such a way without any  swap in the USB driver, and it takes my HD swap (which has a ubuntu OS there). Finally, my grub crashes, and my pc boots to the grub command, and USB is not bootable as well.06:49

liuxgbubbasaures, thanks for your help. Have a good day!06:51
liuxgsacarlson1, without a swap, it seemed to me that I got something broken. I am now trying to have 500M swap. Still, during the installation, it shows me two swaps (another one is from the HD as well).06:51
sacarlson1liuxg: also usb flash drives have limited number of write cycle life so prefer not to setup things on it to write often06:52
liuxgsacarlson1, this is more for the univ training program since a lot of student may not have the ubuntu OS on the laptop. We are thinking of using USB as a starting point.06:53
sacarlson1liuxg: ya sounds fine.  should work no problem06:54
liuxgsacarlson1, I have tried a few times with no success. I have got the bootloader pointing to /dev/sdb (my usb). Hopefully, this time, it will not crash my system again.06:55
sacarlson1liuxg: you might have some problems with some bios to setup boot order of usb first as some don't seem to detect usb until later06:56
sacarlson1liuxg: you might find it better to just create a modified casper boot disk with the added apps you need06:57
liuxgsacarlson1, I have booted one of my usb as a liveusb, and I use it to install another usb which will have the system06:57
Finetundra_is there a fundamental difference between how ubuntu and xubuntu handle graphics?06:58
liuxgsacarlson1, I do not know how to make it. the SDK is pretty big (quite a few Giga)06:58
sacarlson1liuxg: I also have some system that to boot usb I had to create a plop cd boot disk that would then boot the usb06:59
sacarlson1liuxg: you can make a modified casper iso any size as long as it fits your usb06:59
liuxgsacarlson1, oh, sounds a good solution to it. I am now trying the current solution and see how it goes.07:00
absk007how to set maximize, restore and minimize window keybindings?07:01
sacarlson1liuxg: ya your solution might work 70% - 100% depending on the bios types your students end up having.07:01
Finetundra_absk007, what DE are you in?07:01
absk007Finetundra_, Unity07:01
liuxgsacarlson1, you are right. some of the support uefi, and some of them may not. it is a problem for sure.07:02

dw1whats a good socks proxy server package in the ubuntu repositories?07:16
cfhowlett_Finetundra, nope07:16
sacarlson1liuxg: note I haven't really tried this builder, I forget what I used in the past07:16
cybrhumandw1: I think openssh-server can do that.07:17
sacarlson1Finetundra well I'm not sure xubuntu uses compiz07:17
sacarlson1Finetundra but the bottem end grafic drivers I would assume would be the same07:17
dw1cybrhuman: if I run ssh -D 1080 localhost it asks root pass :(07:18
Finetundra_sacarlson1, reason i ask is that it seems like i experience almost no crashes while gaming in xubuntu but trying to do anything in ubuntu is a nightmare07:18
cybrhumandw1: are you using a root terminal?07:19
dw1cybrhuman: yea07:19
samim09meHi, is there any alternative package of gir1.2-gjsdbus-1.0_1.32.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb for xbuntu, i cant find this package in synaptic package manager or by aptget07:19
cybrhumandw1: that would be the reason it asks for root password.07:19
cybrhumandw1: I think when I used it I didn't need to be root to make it work07:20
dw1cybrhuman: if i want the proxy running all the time i dont want to enter the pass.07:20
dw1cybrhuman: maybe add root public key as authorized key to itself.. :/07:20
cybrhumandw1: why do you need to do this as root?07:20
dw1cybrhuman: its the same with a user acct07:21
sacarlson1cybrhuman: I'm not sure what you attach to when pointing to port 1080,  reverse ssh from local address?07:21
samim09mei also download this 'gir1.2-gjsdbus-1.0_1.32.0-1ubuntu1_i386.deb'  package but its dependency is not present on xbuntu07:23
cybrhumandw1: I am a bit rusty on socks, but I have used it to surf from remote machines, and I never had to be root.07:23
zero_coderhello, i installed kde over ubuntu07:23
zero_coderhow to uninstall kde and get back unity?07:23
dw1cybrhuman: this is on the server side07:23
dw1cybrhuman: may not need to be root but why not07:23
Finetundra_zero_coder, sudo apt-get remove kde07:24
Finetundra_zero_coder, sudo apt-get puge kde07:24
cybrhumanzero_coder: to get back to unity, just log out of kde and select unity/ubuntu-session from login manager.07:24
* dw1 tries redsocks07:25
zero_codercybrhuman, it wont work. i tried07:25
cybrhumandw1: you usually never have to be root to use ports above 1024 I think, 1080>1024. you are just using socks to tunnel I think.07:25
cybrhumanzero_coder: what? did you uninstall unity?07:26
zero_coderFinetundra_, i will try that07:26
zero_codercybrhuman, nope i didnt. but after installing kde , i cant boot into other DE's07:26
dw1cybrhuman: good to know, but the need to authenticate to set up the server is weird/dumb to me07:26
zero_codercybrhuman, but ofcourse its shown in the session manager07:26
cybrhumandw1: the server is already running, openssh-server is configured to run if installed as default.07:27
cybrhumanzero_coder: what happens when you select unity or ubuntu-session and log in?07:27
zero_codercybrhuman, only the background loads nothings else07:28
sacarlson1cybrhuman: to make it easy there is a package to setup reverse ssh bettween two systems with backdoor https://github.com/sacarlson/Backdoor07:28

thurstylarksacarlson1: so, clearing the memory so to speak...07:48
sacarlson1thurstylark: it clear the bind it had with my android phone so my computer could use it07:49
cybrhumandw1: you can fire and forget that command I think, and having it run at login.07:49
dw1yea, and its secure07:49
thurstylarksacarlson1: well, this is when the device in question is in discoverable mode, so it's not looking for a specific device to connect to, just any device to connect to.07:50
sacarlson1dw1: backdoor has the option to auto start at boot07:50
sacarlson1thurstylark: oh so maybe it's like some of my other devices that I just didn't get to work or only work sometimes with my ubuntu07:52
cybrhumandw1: but yes, I see the issue with having to restart that process from time to time.07:56
dw1cybrhuman: i just figured there was a server package that would make it more 'normal' server-client07:56
dw1now I just wish I could specify the outward-facing IP :/07:57
dw1like squids tcp_outgoing_address option07:57
cybrhumandw1: squid is not suitable for this?07:59

cybrhumandw1: also out of curiosity, what package?08:00
dw1i went with the ssh client-side method for now08:00
cybrhumandw1: you sure you shouldn't just set up vpn?08:01
dw1i was hoping to bypass some geo-restricted site, and thought squid's anonymizing wasnt working, but i think the site actually blocked my dedicated server provider, so switching to socks doesn't seem to be helping anyway/either :)08:01

Michael_Is it possible to set up sudo in such a way that it will be possible to restrict parameters which can be passed to a command?08:06
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: command?08:06
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: It has nothing to do with sudo08:06
sacarlson1Michael_  you could setup so that only a certain set of scripts are allowed that have preset params of some commands08:07
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: The sudoers file is the extent of what sudo does.08:08
sacarlson1Michael_ and yes you could also write custom scripts that are allowd by sudo that would also filter params entered08:08
cybrhumanMichael_: yes, you can add things like this: username  ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/tee /sys/class/leds/asus\:\:kbd_backlight/brightness08:08
Michael_I'll experiment with this.08:09
cybrhumanMichael_: you know how to edit sudoers?08:09
cybrhuman!visudo08:10
Michael_cybrhuman: yes, I know about it. Checks syntax.08:10
cybrhumanMichael_: good, just because it is a bit pain to fix if you screw up in there :)08:11
cybrhumanthe bot doesn't know visudo?08:11
Michael_cybrhuman: generally, I have already learned that it's safe to have at least two consoles if you're doing things like that. For editing sudo we're lucky to have visudo, but not every file can be handled by such a tool.08:13
absk007how to mount all partitions at startup?08:14
sacarlson1absk007: modify fstab08:14
absk007sacarlson1, i don't exactly know how to08:15
cybrhumanMichael_: no, but most files aren't as important as visudo08:15
absk007how to customize grub?08:15
sacarlson1absk007: might start http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab08:16
cybrhumanabsk007: customize how?08:16
absk007cybrhuman, change background and menu colors08:16
sacarlson1absk007: there was a cool gui app to make some simple mods of grub like grubcustomizer or something like that08:17
Michael_absk007: depends on what exactly you want to do. Take a look at /etc/default/grub, /etc/grub.d/08:17
Michael_absk007: then remember to run update-grub08:17
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_ I would just edit the sourcecode.08:17
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: why?08:18
cyber37Hi, i have installed ubuntu on my mother computer, but actualy i want to know somethng, she like using the touch screen in windows (for move in the navigator (internet explorer)) but in ubuntu when you use the touche screen on a navigator you "can't" move the page, it directly start selecting the text. Is there an option in ubuntu for set that ? Set what to do when you hold pressing the touche screen ?08:18
basil1xTry moving things with the title bar.08:19
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_ this is a case where having the sourcecode is an advantage.08:19
cyber37i am speaking in FIREFOX how to move the page with touch screen without touching the scrolls bars08:20
cyber37in windows you have just to put your finger in the page and move08:20
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: sure, but I'm wondering why you want to go that if you have already most of things you are likely to want to modify in configuration files. Your choice, anyway.08:20
basil1xOH08:21
basil1xuse two fingers08:21
cyber37?08:21
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_ the top is spinning08:21

Glda19where of how can tel my how to partion a pc with ssd 128 gb and a 1TB08:24
newdistrohi there08:24
basil1xBoot, root, and swap on the ssd08:24
j4s0nmchr1st0sIf you reach the Ancient of Days before the top stops spinning it never has to stop spinning08:24
cybrhumancyber37: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/grab-and-drag/ installed it 2 minutes ago to test it08:24
cyber37maybe it will work, thanks i try it08:24
basil1xHome on the 1tb.  At least, that's how I'd do it.08:24
Glda19basil1x why swap on ssd08:25
basil1xThe speed of the ssd is superior08:25
cybrhumanGlda19: because it speeds up hibernation.08:25
cybrhumanand all swapping.08:25
j4s0nmchr1st0sWhat will you become Michael_08:26
cyber37THANKS it works cybr08:26
cybrhumancyber37: ^^08:26
Glda19cybrhuman and basil1x yesterday the told me this ssd / onb the 1TB  /tmp 1GB /var 20gb swap 2gb /home rest08:28
newdistrodoes we know what files to configure for encrypted home directories.. like how to enable or disable after a reboot08:29
basil1xYou can do it that way, sure.  But why bother with a separate var?08:29
=== yan is now known as a0726h77
Michael_cybrhuman: your example not exactly works08:29
basil1xNobody needs a 128GB root08:29

basil1xcybrhuman,08:30
basil1xgrrr... tabfail08:30
Glda19how than make the partions08:31
sacarlson1newdistro: you might find the package cryptkeeper as a nice gui tool to create and mount crypted diretory that you can then later move places08:31
basil1xTurn off the LVM first thing.  It's annoying, and unnecessary.08:31
cybrhumanGlda19: the graphical installer have a wizard for it I think08:31
newdistrothats what im talking about thank you08:31
j4s0nmchr1st0sDo you see what I see Michael_ ?08:31
cybrhumanbasil1x: lvm is awesome, and cool, if you are a poweruser :P08:32
basil1xThen you can either let the magic partition elf create them its' way, or do it yourself.08:32
Glda19cybrhuman that is not what i mean08:32
silv3r_m00nwhere does software-properties-gtk, update tab store its configuration, which file ?08:32
basil1xLVM is only cool if you never have issues.  Playing with a failing HDD with LVM is not any fun at all.08:33
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: what are you talking about?08:33
cybrhumanfollow the advice from basil1x, it seems sound.08:33
Glda19The question is how to set up the partions what partion on what drive and the sise off it08:33
newdistroanyone know of free virtual servers so i can run cod4 from?08:34
Footybasil1x, in some scenarios LVM can save ur ass tho08:34
basil1x My method:  /boot = 500mb | / = 50GB | /swap = installed memory or 2GB, whichever is greater | /home = whatever you like.08:35
basil1xHome can be the whole of the 1TB drive that way.08:36
sacarlson1newdistro: you mean free remote virtual servers?  I'm not sure what cod4 is so don't know what it needs.  you can get free php mysql apache servers08:36
newdistrocall of duty08:36
FootyI always split off /var from /08:36
Footycus of logs08:36
basil1xThat also leaves you with a sizable chunk of SSD if you want to put /var there instead.08:37
j4s0nmchr1st0sThe first thing you need is to comprehend self-evident. Michael_08:37
cybrhumanFooty: but most users don't really need that, so I say keep it simple.08:37
newdistrocod4  call of duty 4 theres a linux server binary for the game but you need 1gig of space to upload the maps08:37
Footycybrhuman: guess it depends if your running as a desktop or server08:37
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: OK. Everything's going well at your place?08:37
sacarlson1newdistro: as far as I know if it's not php code it won't be free and even the free php servers suck08:38
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: All is well. Do you want to help setup the bridge between you and I?08:38
=== Malsasa- is now known as Malsasa
Glda19basil1x so installed memory is 8G so 8gb swap08:39
cybrhumanFooty: of course, but that is more in poweruserland, and does not seem relevant for the current question.08:40
basil1xYup.  More is wasteful.08:40
newdistrotheres a few twoonie hosting servers what i am really hoping is that dedicated gaming returns on call of duty advenced warfare08:40
basil1xUnless you;re gonna up the total to 16GB soon.08:40
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: not necessarily. Why do you ask?08:41
Glda19basil1x but i read that tmp /var/swap/home is on the hdd on may websites08:41
basil1xyou can have a separate /tmp, but I've never once done so.08:42
basil1xIt seems an excess of partitions to me.08:42
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: I am trying to choose something to forward the domain to my laptop it will help you locate my machine.08:43
Glda19basil1x  therefore only the root ond ssd the rest on the hdd08:44
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_ I am going to search through my notes putting them on real paper helps to preserve them in the event of aeon flux.08:44
basil1xUmmm... you can do it any way you like, but that sounds backwards to me.  Only /home on the HDD.  rest on the SSD.08:45
j4s0nmchr1st0sThere is a dynamic dns provider used before.08:45
cybrhumanbasil1x: personally I would have /home on the ssd and mount the hdd as ~/<media/music/film>, because that way all config files should be quick to load and all the large files go to HDD, but not sure how to walk people through that.08:45
basil1xOK08:45
basil1xYou go through it with him.08:46
Glda19how have installed linux on a desktop with a ssd + hdd and how partion and witch partion on witch drive08:47
basil1xI keep all my big files on externals, so my main HDD is mostly empty anyway.08:47
cybrhumanbasil1x: I don't think I can explain it in a good way, so I feel your solution is a good compromise.08:47
basil1xRight.08:48
basil1xLet's talk him through then. ;)08:48
basil1xStart with /boot08:48
basil1xIt goes on the SSD, and is 500MB08:48
basil1xthen /swap, on the SSD at 8GB08:49
basil1xthen / (root) on the SSD at 50GB08:49
basil1xthen /var on the SSD, if you wish it separate, at whatever size cybrhuman recommends08:51
bubbasauresthat is a huge waste of time08:51
basil1xThen /home on the HDD at 1TB08:51
bubbasauresand uneeded in several places08:51

Glda19bubbasaures what is a wast of time08:52
* basil1x gives up. Too many cooks.08:53
Glda19basil1x why not put the var on hdd08:53
basil1xPut it where you please.08:53
cybrhumanGlda19: you want it on SSD because of its usage pattern08:53
basil1xIt's your system.  The entire point of linux is to have your OS your way.08:54
bubbasauresGlda19, Not sure why you have not just installed it's been 24 hrs, however that description is faulty and stupid advise for someone not even able to install themselves.08:54
Glda19bubbasaures there is something els in live the only linux08:55
Glda19bubbasaures and i whant a good partioned system08:56
j4s0nmchr1st0sMichael_: you must know that every word has possibly 2 or more definitions08:56
bubbasauresGlda19, Just install it on the SSD and use the other for storage...etc. You need to get your feet wet.08:57
sacarlson1once opon a time there was a big hdd disk and small fast ssd disk.  the momy bare said lets put / root and /boot on the fast sdd and the rest like /var /home /swap on the slower big hdd.  The baby bare said ok. The End ha ha just kiding08:57
bubbasauresGlda19, You are over thinking this, you have to get your hands on it to learn.08:58
basil1xOh, lau.  We're cathcing flak from someone who doesn't know the difference between 'bare' and 'bear'?  I think NOT.08:58
sacarlson1Glda19: for most of it you can later move the locations with symbolic links when needed08:59

usertest09:01
Glda19sacarlson1 how big must the /boot and /root09:02
basil1xGlda19, why not let the installer pick your partitions this time.  When you install again, and this being linux you *WILL* install again, you'll have a better idea of what you want.09:02
cybrhumanGlda19: listen to bubbasaures and just install on SSD.09:02
bubbasaures"Installing aint nuthin but a pardy" Bootsy Collins09:03
sacarlson1Glda19: the numbers provided by the others above looked fine.  I would just put root and boot on the same partition.  I'm not picky09:03

basil1xo_O  sometimes my own grammar appalls me.09:08
cybrhumanbasil1x: http://kingjamesprogramming.tumblr.com/ :)09:08
sacarlson1Glda19: you can play with it or experiment with it as maybe tmp09:08

basil1xIn the manic desire to do everything exactly properly, he/she will never get to the point of actually using the blessed thing.09:12
sacarlson1basil1x: here here09:13
basil1xWhich is why most people abandon linux as a bad idea and run off and hug the nearest Windows DVD.09:13
cybrhumansacarlson1: if you agree with that just have him use the defaults and install on ssd without partitioning09:13
k4boel141209:15
sacarlson1cybrhuman: ya that's find with me as long as I keep one extra partition free to install new versions or other destro later.  I move things as needed at later times and go with the defaults09:15
Michael_j4s0nmchr1st0s: apart from that, everything's OK?09:15
cybrhumansacarlson1: he have an entire HDD which he can use for that purpose. just get him started09:16
basil1xSo make one partition, to reserve space for another OS, and let the automagic thingie do the rest.09:16
basil1xWait... there's an actual Michael that thing was talking to??09:17

sacarlson1Glda19: I'm sold on that one, any spare like 10gb left on the hdd to try experimental distros?09:18
basil1xit's a 128GB, so there's about 69GB left for playing.09:19
* basil1x saw the first part of this round.09:20
sacarlson1Glda19: basil1x oh ok good to go09:20
* basil1x is cincerned about the var being on the regular hdd, but decides to SHUT UP before he makes this more complicated than it already is.09:21
Glda19sacarlson1 i can't do that what you say last 10 gb to try with experimental distro is not my pc but for a company09:22
basil1xkyoshero, hon, please stop that.09:22
sacarlson1basil1x: like you said they have 69gb to play with they can later move var if they want with symlink09:22
hujobasil1x, I'm curious, why does it concern you?09:22
basil1xbcos var would benefit from the SSD.09:23
hujoah, I see09:23
basil1xI didn't mean concern as in it's wrong, just I'd do it different.09:23
sacarlson1Glda19: ya no problem you have the 69gb on the ssd to use for that or other purpose09:23
basil1x+ly09:23
basil1xI have got to stop listening to the people here.  My English is suffering.09:24

absk007basil1x, how to know?09:31
basil1xMost themes will work regardless of resolution.  Just some won't be as pretty.09:31

cybrhumansacarlson1: 20 minutes since last change in /var/log on my machine09:44
sacarlson1cybrhuman: then I stand corrected09:44

After a quick search my partition table looks ok but then when i change one of the partitions to boot and another to primary it only shows 2 partitions instead of for when im going to write them, i wonder if that is the correct table or it should show all 4 partitions (at the last dialog, to write, instead of showing only the ones i changed)11:19

hujolooneygod, sounds like eth1 is misconfigured, is it just a modem or a router with an integrated modem?11:24
elementaryikonia, that is my concern11:25
hujoelementary, do try reading the message again - you will need to add another partition11:25
looneygodhujo, I dont know. How do I configure it properly? The process to connect to the net for my ISP is simple.... connect the cable. open x.xxx.xxx.xxx (ISPs authentication page). done11:25
looneygodhujo, again it works absolutely fine with my Windows and mac machine11:26
looneygodhujo, I didnt get you11:27

looneygodsacarlson1, ubuntu 14.04 (unity I guess)11:31
sacarlson1looneygod: ya then from the network icon or network-manager you should be able to be sure it's set to dhcp mode that should have been set as default11:32
sacarlson1looneygod: normaly in dhcp mode just unpluging and repluging will auto connect cat5 ethernet11:33
looneygodYou mean edit connection from the network icon? But that wont work right? This is not a DSL(or any similar connection) to save. I just plug the cable and go to my ISPs page. No connection required11:34

ssshvb<sacarlson1>  yes  i do not see  the boot menu   and when i try to update  ubuntu  the installer does not see ubuntu  it see  only windows12:43
sacarlson1Glda19: I'm now using lvm on my desktop but it is still somewhat new to me.  I chose it as I thought it would make it posible to change size easy later12:43
EriC^^ssshvb: did it used to work?12:44
sacarlson1ssshvb: maybe try change the boot sequence in bios12:44
ssshvb <EriC^^> yes  my old ubuntu works  but it crashed bicouse of nvidea driver12:45
sacarlson1ssshvb: have it boot sdc disk first12:45
EriC^^ssshvb: ok, please type sudo parted -l12:45
sacarlson1ssshvb: ya try EriC^^ idea first12:46
ssshvb <EriC^^> http://pastebin.com/z5qLmPUj12:47
sacarlson1oh EriC^^ he has also provided output with fdisk -l but gpt is not seen clear with that12:47
cfhowlettfdisk won't see gpt.  use gdisk12:48
sacarlson1cfhowlett: EriC^^ ya your parted -l is now showing the gpt partition  he says his install for root might be on sdc812:51
EriC^^ssshvb: you have 2 installations of linux?12:51
EriC^^ssshvb: what's the 1TB partition and the 500GB partition?12:52
sacarlson1EriC^^: he should be able to mount them and take a peak inside to be sure12:52
ssshvb<EriC^^>  i try to update it from live usb  but it stops  and does not do something 4 hours some i reset the system12:53
EriC^^ssshvb: you can't update ubuntu from a liveusb12:54
EriC^^ssshvb: you need to do sudo do-release-upgrade from the installation, or a fresh install from a live usb ( after backing your stuff up )12:54
sacarlson1EriC^^: I assume he means he was installing a new on top the old or in a spare partition?12:54
EriC^^ssshvb: sudo mount /dev/sdc8 /mnt12:56
ssshvb <EriC^^> but i can not start the old system how ...12:56
ssshvbok12:56
EriC^^sacarlson1: as you suggested let's look at what's there12:56
EriC^^sacarlson1: ssshvb i think sdc8 is the old installation, it has a bios-boot partition before it, the other partition sdc6 also has a bios-boot partition too i think it's another installation12:57
sacarlson1EriC^^: hard to say it looks big12:57
ssshvb <EriC^^>  ok12:58
EriC^^ssshvb: open a terminal and type sudo mount /dev/sdc8 /mnt12:58
EriC^^ssshvb: which ubuntu version did you have? and which were you installing/updating to?12:58
ssshvb <EriC^^>   did it      1212:59
ssshvb <EriC^^> 1412:59
EriC^^ssshvb: type cat /mnt/etc/issue12:59
EriC^^and paste here12:59
sacarlson1EriC^^: a peak at /home might give a clue of it's age, if it's a new install maybe erase and start again12:59
ssshvb<EriC^^> with sudo ?13:00
EriC^^ssshvb: no need13:00
ssshvbubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cat /mnt/etc/issue cat: /mnt/etc/issue: No such file or directory13:00
ssshvb<EriC^^>   ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cat /mnt/etc/issue cat: /mnt/etc/issue: No such file or directory13:00
sacarlson1EriC^^: or if you can figure out how to get one to boot then a standard upgrade might be posible13:01
EriC^^ssshvb: type ls -l /mnt13:01

ssshvb<EriC^^>  <sacarlson1> i need old system  that has expencinve  programms and i can not reinstall it13:09

sacarlson1EriC^^:  ssshvb ya and what kind of software is it??13:21
ssshvb <EriC^^>  maya13:21
ssshvb <sacarlson1> EriC^^  there are a few  programs and all of them work together  it will cost me lots of tiem to get it work back13:22

sacarlson1newlex: google for ipv6 test,  there are many sites that will display your ipv6 status13:44
newlexsacarlson1: I mean on a server, sorry for not being more specific13:44
MonkeyDustnewlex  there's also #ubuntu-server13:44
newlexah ok13:44
newlexcool13:44
jjmivgood morning13:45
sacarlson1newlex: I assume you want to know if it has ipv6 from wan13:45
newlexright13:45
newlexwell I'm trying to setup an ipv6 openvpn13:46
sacarlson1newlex: you might try ping an ipv6 only website13:46
newlexit pings ipv6.google.com13:46
newlexBut I don't know what's wrong13:46
newlexIt's like it can't listen on ipv6 but it can access it13:46
gdrizzthttp://paste.ubuntu.com/8900546/         <<<<<<<<<<<<<<------ is that right ?13:46
sacarlson1newlex: oh ok so listen on what port 80?13:46
chipshi13:47
k1l_gdrizzt:  No space left on device13:47
newlexyeah I can't access it13:47
k1l_gdrizzt: please show  a "df -h" in a pastebin13:47
newlexit's on a dedicated server cluster at a datacenter, this is why I'm so confused13:47

gdrizztthanks k1l13:47
chipsinterstellar is amazing movie13:47
sacarlson1newlex: maybe you dns isn't setup with ipv6 to your website13:47
newlexI added an AAAA entry like 3 days ago13:48

newlexhm13:49
newlexwell in this case it's the server itself that I ran dig on13:49
newlexI may contact my server host13:50
sacarlson1newlex: can your client ping ipv6.google.com13:50
newlexyes13:50

liuxgdoes anyone know exactly steps to install a bootable USB with Ubuntu OS (it is not a liveusb). I am now trying to install it using another USB stick. However, I always fail.13:50
newlexone of the first things I tested actually13:50
sacarlson1newlex: oh ok from the server no ipv6 dig ya so thats broken13:50
newlexyeah13:50
newlexexactly13:50
cfhowlettliuxg, select the usb.  partition as normal. install.13:50
newlexI can dns ipv6 it here13:50
k1l_gdrizzt: your /boot is full. remove a old kernel package first13:50
newlexSo I should contact my server host you think?13:51
newlexor maybe its just a matter of the DNS servers there13:51
k1l_gdrizzt: show a "dpkg -l | grep linux-image"  in a pastebin13:51
cfhowlettgdrizzt, sudo apt-get autoremove should clean out older kernels13:51
gdrizztk1l_  just a sec13:51
sacarlson1newlex: you might verify that you can direct ping it with ipv6 address13:51
newlexk13:51
newlexI can't ping it even on ipv4 it's configured like that I presume from them13:51
liuxgcfhowlett, yes, I did it that way. chose "something else". I created a swap 500M, and the rest leaves to the "/".  I also chose the /dev/sdb as the bootloader. still I fail.13:52
cfhowlettliuxg, what size USB?13:52
liuxgcfhowlett, I got 16G and 32G both sizes.13:52
sacarlson1newlex: it's posible only ipv6 but you should be able to get the ipv6 address and attempt to ping it from outside wan13:52
newlexk13:52
newlexwell I'm saying I think they firewall out pings13:53
newlexI don't know13:53
liuxgcfhowlett, do I need to set the bootloader to "/dev/sdb" or "/dev/sdb1" which has the installation.13:53
gdrizzthttp://paste.ubuntu.com/8900691/   k1l_13:53
cfhowlettliuxg, /dev/sdb   should do.13:53
sacarlson1newlex: oh no pings then netcat or something on port 8013:53
newlexk13:53
cfhowlettliuxg, "fails" means  .... what exactly?13:53
liuxgcfhowlett, after installation, it always crashes my grub, and make my pc not bootable. It comes to the grub command line,13:53
gdrizztcfhowlett, the autoremove ended in a similar fail, as my first pastebin13:53
k1l_gdrizzt: "sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic linux-image-3.13.0-35-generic"13:54
cfhowlettgdrizzt, let me look.  I was wrong.  autoremove does NOT clean kernels.13:54
sacarlson1newlex: maybe try ping first. only windows disables pings13:54
sacarlson1newlex: oh and I think it's ping613:54
cfhowlettgdrizzt, k1l_ has your solution13:54
liuxgcfhowlett, my pc cannot find it a bootable device in the bios. Instead, the liveusb does.13:54
newlexyeah ping6 I can't ping it13:54
newlexI can dns it13:54
gdrizztThanks, I;ll input that!13:54
newlexI also tried setting nginx to host on ipv613:55
cfhowlettliuxg, /dev/sdb        reinstall grub to that location13:55
newlexand just did listen to ::13:55
cfhowlett!grub2 | liuxg13:55

mnngfltg2I've tried iftop but I can't make head or tails of it13:57
liuxgcfhowlett, I have repeated the step for many times. yes, I can recovery the problem by updating the grub. I pressed F12, and chose "Ubuntu". I can boot into the installed USB drive. However, if I insert it into another machine, it does not boot at all.13:57

newlexI don't know what else to do really at this point but blame them lol13:58
mnngfltg2MonkeyDust, I'll check that out!13:58
cfhowlettliuxg, I'm guessing that your installation included a /dev/sda        partition which would be absent on a different machine13:58
gdrizzthow can I know what to clean out for next time ? or how can I prevent these kernels from filling up the boot ?  k1l_ ?13:58
liuxgubottu, thanks for your help. I have basically repeated the steps again and again to recover the grub.13:58

gdrizzthow do I know which to remove ?13:59
liuxgcfhowlett, yes, my pc has two partitions. one for windows, and one for ubuntu 14.10.13:59

newlexand it'll work13:59
mnngfltg2sacarlson1, my hosted tells me I have higher than usual traffic (5GiB per hour)14:00
sacarlson1mnngfltg2: well you can look at the apache logs to see whats touching each page14:00
liuxgcfhowlett, even on the same machine, the grub crashes to command line. In the BIOS, UEFI boot order, the newly installed USB is not listed there.14:00
mnngfltg2sacarlson1, yes I checked the access logs and there's nothing there unforunately14:00
cfhowlettliuxg, this one is over my head.  sorry.  sounds like you did everything right ... but14:00
sacarlson1mnngfltg2: otherwise I don't know what other ports you have listening14:00
liuxgcfhowlett, the purpose of having this is for the student training. We need to produce a bootable image with SDK inside it.14:00
newlexsacarlson1: adding the ipv6 add fixed everything14:01
cfhowlettliuxg, option:  virtualbox on windows + ubuntu virtual machine?//14:01
sacarlson1mnngfltg2: you can look at sudo netstat -pant and get a list of posible ports that are in listen mode14:01
Jinxed-I'm looking at Ubuntu as a host OS for running VirtualBox. Any issues I should be aware of before I do this?14:01
sacarlson1newlex: oh cool now you owe me a beer then ha ha14:01
MonkeyDustJinxed-  are you familiar with vbox?14:02
cfhowlettJinxed-, nothing in particular = typically works just fine.14:02
newlexsacarlson1: I suppose I do ;)14:02
liuxgcfhowlett, the thing is that the emulator does not run well on VM. Another thing is that the 3D acceleration does not really work on virtualbox.14:02
Jinxed-MonkeyDust: yeah I have used it a few times14:02
cfhowlettliuxg, ouch. sorry but ask around.  most people in this channel are smarter than I am.14:02

gdrizztk1l_  thanks a lot!  btw can I remove the other kernels displayed in dpkg -l | grep linux-image  ?14:06
k1l_gdrizzt: no. you need at least 1 kernel installed to run ubuntu. and 2 kernels to use the recovery. only the ones with ii in front are installed14:07
gdrizztk1l_  so, I can remove all but 3 kernels ? I am just asking so I can keep the machine tip top and be able to deal with this on my own in the future. your help has been awesome!14:09
k1l_gdrizzt: just keep at least 1 kernel. or 2 to run recovery.14:10

kertgI did the Nvdia Bumblebee stuff ages ago...so i might have installed everything14:29
k1l_kertg: remove the bumblebee stuff. just use nvidia-prime14:30
kertgk1l_: i type in sudo apt-get purge bumble-* ??14:30
k1l_kertg: but take a look what packages it wants to remove with that14:30
k1l_gdrizzt: run a "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"14:31
kertgk1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8901238/ Do I proceed?14:32
k1l_kertg: no14:33
k1l_just get rid of bumblebee packages. see your package list fo that specific packages14:33

HolyGhosttrisquel is ubuntu 14.04 without the non-libre parts14:34
gdrizzt_thanks man14:35
MonkeyDustHolyGhost  trisuel is not supported here14:35
k1l_gdrizzt_: let the update run through. maybe you need to make a reinstall on the latest kernel because it got incompletly installed because of the full disk issue.14:36
kertgk1l_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Uninstall Do I follow the instructions here then?14:36
k1l_kertg: did you install that from a PPA?14:36
gdrizzt_gottcha running now k1l_ thanks14:36
HolyGhostMonkeyDust: neither ubuntu 14.04, i see14:37
HolyGhostthanks14:37
k1l_kertg: i dont know what your setup is there. i know bumblebee is deprecated and nvidia-prime is the way to go now. remove the bumblebee packages and use only prime now.14:37
MonkeyDustHolyGhost  type /topic to find out what's supported here14:37
k1l_HolyGhost: 14.04 is supported. come back when you run a original 14.04 and not a changed one.14:38
kertgk1l_: I can't find bumblebee ppa in "Other Software" in Software & Updates ... SO no14:38
k1l_kertg: you gave a list of nvidia and bumblebee packages installed on your system. i would suggest you just remove them. by naming them with apt-get remove14:39
kertgk1l_ OK14:39

rebelwirelessis there method to do a diff that doesn't care about line order?15:28
rebelwirelessfor example, I have two files that are 99% identical, but out of order.  the few differences mean that lines to match and diff basically says the entire file is different, though it's definitely very similar.15:29

MonkeyDustenzotib  try rev [some text file]15:38
enzotibMonkeyDust, I was proposing a solution, I have no problem, and I don't think "rev" could be a solution in the probem at hand15:39
syadnomenzotib, I mean that because of the few changes, the lines in the file are not on the same line numbers. I have 4000 lines per file and if I remove line 3 from the first file and line 5 from the second, diff spits out almost 8000 lines of change.15:39

kostkonb12, 11.2.x is supported by Adobe until 201715:49
b12@kostkon: so this means i dont get updates security updates that are included in version 15.x?15:49

b12or does it mean that i have all securtiy updates that windows user get with flash 15.x?15:51
kostkonb12, flashplugin-installer gives you 11.2.x so you get the security updates for that version15:51

MonkeyDustsuperbu  let's hear it16:04
superbuWhen i close the lid of my laptop, and open it, it stops at blank screen16:05
superbu@MonkeyDust16:05
MonkeyDustsuperbu  what happens when you close the lid? suspend? hibernate? or you don't know16:05
superbuI dont know. But i have to hard reboot. MonkeyDust16:06
superbuMonkeyDust?16:07
MonkeyDustsuperbu  i guess the laptop has wake from suspend, after you closed the lid16:08
MonkeyDustsuperbu  find out what happens when you close it16:08
superbuIt says suspend. MonkeyDust16:09
MonkeyDustsuperbu  so that's it, wake from suspend... you need enough swap for it to work propoerly16:09
MonkeyDustsuperbu  or disable swap and change it to "do nothing" or so16:10
MonkeyDustdisable suspend ^^^^16:10
superbuSwap is 10 gb. RAM is 4 GB. MonkeyDust. Isnt hat enough?16:10
MonkeyDustsuperbu  yes, that should do... odd16:10

asdofindiasuperbu, have you installed different login managers, is this a fresh install, can you tell anything ?16:19
superbuI am having a multi boot with win 8. It is a fresh install. I dont know about login managers. asdofindia. Are yu from india?16:20
sacarlson1trijntje: sounds like it tries to mount NFS before network is stable you might find a work around by adding delay in /etc/init.d or /etc/init script that starts it or fix the script to be sure network is up first16:21
superbuThe only external software i have installed is this xchat gnome which i did just now. asdofindia16:22
asdofindiasuperbu, do you hear hard disk whirring up when you open the lid? are the laptop lights on?16:23
trijntjesacarlson1: that seems like a pretty bad hack for such a simple problem. There should be a normal way to do this right? I dont want to edit a bunch of scripts on every PC I have just to be able to use nfs16:23
sacarlson1trijntje: the /etc/init script should tie to /etc/network/interface scripts to be sure it's up before nfs mount16:24
sacarlson1trijntje: you would have to look at them to find out16:24
superbuasdofindia. Laptop lights are on But no disk whirring16:24
superbuasdofindia. Wait when i think about it, i think i hear it.16:25
sacarlson1trijntje: look in /etc/network/if-up.d  to see if anything to do with nfs mount is present if not add it16:26
asdofindiaokay superbu . means it's going to suspend. and trying to wake up. (And getting frozen halfway, according to what you said)16:26
superbuasdofindia. So what should i do? Is there anyway i can repair it?16:27
trijntjesacarlson1: add what? I dont understand why I need to edit stuf when it used to work by just adding the nfs to fstab16:27
sacarlson1trijntje: same but that redhat has https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=102711416:27
ubottubugzilla.redhat.com bug 1027114 in systemd "nfs mount fails during boot because network is not ready" [Unspecified,Closed: duplicate]16:27
asdofindiawell superbu, the easy way out would be to just set it to do nothing when you close laptop lid. (I wouldn't be satisfied with that if it was my laptop, though)16:27
sacarlson1trijntje: you want me to write the script for you?16:28
sacarlson1but = bug16:28
superbuasdofindia. I wont get satisfied either. Is there any other way?16:28
trijntjesacarlson1: no, I could write a script myself, its just weird that I suddenly have this issue with nfs16:29
asdofindiasuperbu, try isolating your problem. suspend manually and see if that wakes fine?16:30
superbuok. asdofindia16:30

gdrizztweird it's not showing up in homefolder at all though18:10
gdrizztuh18:10
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: you really should use UUID or LABEL instead18:10
topdownjimmyI have two identical drives (cloned one onto the other with dd) so I think it's having difficulty differentiating them.18:10
EriC^^mrkirby153: try sudo fdisk  -l18:10
Miaucybrhuman: w-well... I'm not familiar with this... :c18:10
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: because /dev/sd* names are not reliable between kernel upgrades etc18:10
mtntimbo_: what does your grub and vmware have to do with each other? are you unable to boot your machine or vmware?18:10
mrkirby153EriC^^, No output18:10
geoffmccUbuntu seems to run slow on my quad core laptop. Debian runs way better. If I want to stick with Ubuntu should I try gnome-session-flashback, or would something like lubuntu be better?18:11
topdownjimmyMrElendig: Thanks; unfortunately the UUIDs were copied to a second disk when I cloned with dd, so they appear not to be unique.18:11
EriC^^mrkirby153: sudo lsblk -f18:11
mrkirby153no output18:11
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: labels ftw18:11

EriC^^mrkirby153: something isn't right i guess18:11
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: or PARTUUID/LABEL if you use gpt18:11
cybrhumanMiau: in the screen where you write your password you can also select session18:11
EriC^^mrkirby153: type which lsblk18:11
topdownjimmyMrElendig: Thanks; I don't know anything about that but I'll google around.18:12
azashoggdrizzt: it's not supposed to show under /home unless you mounted it there manually18:12
mrkirby153/bin/lsblk EriC^^18:12
cybrhumanMiau: but I googled a bit and I found something I overlooked, can you bring up ccsm again?18:12
EriC^^mrkirby153: ok, does the vm use any special hdd or something?18:12
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Persistent_block_device_naming18:12

mrkirby153I don't think so. How can I check?18:13
cybrhumanMiau: Search for unity in there18:13
gdrizztthats' trippy, I didn't know that azashog because most of my external hdd appear at the dock automatically18:13
mrkirby153EriC^^18:13
topdownjimmyMrElendig: Thanks18:13
gdrizztso confused18:13
azashoggdrizzt: "the dock" is not "homefolder"18:14

azashoggdrizzt: home folder is the /home/your_username directory18:14
Miaucybrhuman: Hmm, right, I found it18:14
timbo_mtn: when I boot it takes me just to "Grub_".  I'm running Live right now and all my partitions and data are still there. I'm going to choose Install from my Live session.  I want to be sure I choose the right partition and don't lose my VMWare with Windows partition.  I think I should install to the dev/mapper-ubuntu-vg-root ext4. Does that sound right?18:14
cybrhumanMiau: that is not loaded?18:14
mrkirby153EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/8904433/ Here's what "df -aTh" outputs18:14

blueblur112198Hey, I have a quick question18:16
Miaucybrhuman: Well, the left part of the window (which says "use this plugin") is unchecked here18:16
blueblur112198I have the iso to the current LTS version's install18:16
azashoggdrizzt: no idea, I do all my stuff from command line, I don't rely on bells and whistles of the UI :) But, if it doesn't do automatically, there's a problem. My guess is it wasn't unmounted properly so Ubuntu is refusing to mount it automatically.18:16
blueblur112198Could I just copy the files from the iso to a USB stick?18:16
blueblur112198Or would that not work?18:16
timbo_mtn? so I just want to go to a terminal and type grub - install?18:16
cybrhumanMiau: load that plugin, save settings and restart unity (setsid unity)18:16
Miaucybrhuman: So, should I check it?18:17
mrkirby153EriC^^, can't I copy the ssl certs from another computer?18:17

mrkirby153EriC^^, Nothing18:17
gdrizztThanks for the help18:17
mtntimbo_: you read the entire link already? just follow the appropriate steps ;)  you can also use boot repair, which might be easier for you.18:17
azashoggdrizzt: question, can you mount it from Disks?18:18
azashoggdrizzt: if you open the file manager, does it show at all?18:18
mrkirby153Would it be better if i just reinstall EriC^^?18:18
timbo_mtn: I've tried these steps including Boot Repair and couldn't fix it18:18
EriC^^mrkirby153: no idea, maybe someone more knowledgeable will shed some light18:19
mrkirby153I'll just reinstall. Its easier that way18:19
successwhere is bash.rc?18:19
successor .bash.rc18:19
MrElendigsuccess: no such thing exists18:19
mtntimbo_: you would need to explain what went wrong if you want anyone to understand what it is you are doing and what is happening. you can paste your info to dpaste.com18:20

successMrElendig, yes thats it then18:20
Bashing-omblueblur112198: To make the .iso bootable, one must burn to disk as an "image" . Then the "omage" is created, else one just has the "data" not in a bootable format.18:20

MrElendigsuccess: man -P "less -p INVOCATION" bash18:21
Miaucybrhuman: Much better with keyboard, but back to the topic18:21
timbo_mtn: sorry never used XCHat before. what can I tell you to help you help me?18:21
cybrhumanMiau: indeed, didn't think about that :P18:21
topdownjimmyMrElendig: So, if lsblk -f shows that / is sdb3, I can refer to that partition in fstab by the ID in /dev/disk/by-id?18:21
mtntimbo_: remember, don't paste here in the channel. what exact command did you try that failed? what was the error message? that would be a good start.18:22
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: don't use that path18:22
topdownjimmyMrElendig: I actually, in fact, see two IDs pointing to /dev/sdb3 in /dev/disk/by-id18:22
cybrhumanMiau: load the unity plugin and close ccsm then setsid unity.18:22
topdownjimmyMrElendig: Oh, ok.18:22
MrElendigtopdownjimmy: just label it and use LABEL=whatever18:22
Miaucybrhuman: And I can also access firefox to pastebin the message that appears when I type setsid unity18:22
cybrhumanMiau: oh, great :)18:22
topdownjimmyMrElendig: Ok cool, I'll try that. Thanks.18:23

k1lan extended partition is like a container for other partitions.20:27

alexxaaOerHeks, I have unmounted, but can't drag it lo left20:29
alexxaak1l, I need practical advice, I'm on battery on laptop, no cable attached, my time is running out20:30
alexxaaplease20:30
alexxaaI'll read it all later20:30
alexxaaI need some action right now20:30
k1lalexxaa: i told you what to do minutes ago20:31
k1leven 2 or 3 times already.20:31
jhutchinsalexxaa: My suggestion would be to delete the existing partitions and create new ones with the structure you want.20:31
OerHeksalexxaa, sure it is possible to drag sda4, try again20:31
alexxaak1l, it worked20:32
alexxaanow I understand20:32
alexxaaI've read your words once againg20:32
alexxaa*again20:32
alexxaaextending sda4 was right thing to do20:32

jhutchinsalexxaa: http://gparted.org/display-doc.php?name=help-manual20:33
alexxaanow the situation is following> thanks to k1l, I managed to move unallocated space from ntfs to forth primary partition (sda4 that contains sda5 / and sda6 /home)20:35
alexxaabut even now I can't increase the volume of sda6 :(20:35
OerHeksalexxaa, now first hit apply, before you move sda520:35
alexxaaI applied20:36
k1lalexxaa: you still need to move sda5 to the fron of sda4, then sda620:36
k1lalexxaa: and next time you need support actually use your OS support channel.20:36
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^ and kostkon: Finally, keyboard20:37
alexxaak1l, that is the problem, I cannot move it. I cannot drag it20:37

MiauAnotherPCEriC^^ and kostkon: So, back on the topic, there are a lot of linux images installed it seems20:38
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: any 3.13 ?20:38
k1lalexxaa: i dont know if the mint install and mint live cd are different in their installed setup. on ubuntu you could just choose sda5 and resize/move it to the beginning of sda4.20:38
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: There is one, "linux-image-3.13.0.19-generic"20:39
k1lalexxaa: but i bet the mint support channel, made the first channel you join with your irc program on default, could help you on that.20:39
EriC^^latest should be 3.13.0.3920:39

alexxaaI'll come back in a minute20:41
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: ok, it's odd that it didn't install the latest one20:41
MiauAnotherPCIs it possible to pastebinit that command "sudo apt-get disdpkg -l | grep linux-imagem"?20:42
EriC^^try sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.13.0-39-generic20:42

EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: yeah dpkg -l | grep linux-image | pastebinit20:43
k1lMiauAnotherPC: not sudo apt-get in front.20:43
EriC^^Bashing-om: he said it said no packages to be installed20:43

MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: I guess it's  related to my grub20:45
EriC^^boot into the 3.13 kernel20:45
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: try update-grub first20:45
EriC^^see if it picks it up20:46
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Alright20:46
k1lEriC^^: maybe try "sudo update-grub" and see if it picks up the other kernels20:46
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Done20:46
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: did it mention 3.13?20:46
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Ayup!20:47
EriC^^ok cool20:47
EriC^^boot into it20:47
Finetundrahow would one install windows AFTER ubuntu?20:47
k1lFinetundra: install it, then boot ubuntu cd/usb and reinstall the grub20:47
EriC^^Finetundra: same, but you have to use a liveusb to reinstall grub20:47
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: u-uhh... h-how? Do I need to restart my computer or...?20:47
xugi installed ati drivers and xorg stopped working20:47
xugthats why20:47

MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: So... I just press the reset button, right? Or can I do it through terminal?20:49
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: no, sudo reboot20:49
EriC^^if you ever need to hard restart20:50
EriC^^press alt+prntscrn and type reisub slowly20:50
EriC^^( if sudo reboot doesn't work from a tty or something )20:50
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Ohhh, I booted up 3.13 and finally the stuff appeared :320:51
EriC^^ok cool20:52
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: But uhh... How about the other versions? Like 14.0420:52
EriC^^what do you mean?20:52
jhutchinsdelinquentme: May I suggest you try it both ways with a test file and see?20:52
EriC^^3.13 is the kernel version20:52
delinquentmejhutchins, they behave the same ... but I was looking for edgecases20:53
grzegorzhello20:53
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: you're on 14.04 right now using the 3.13 kernel ( which is the latest one )20:53
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Ohh,okay, I think I got it20:53
jhutchinsdelinquentme: If you do ls -a, you will see two tokens, . and ..20:53
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: if you want you can sudo apt-get autoremove20:54
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Well, before I forget, lemme fix my grub to set this kernel20:54
jhutchinsdelinquentme: . represents the directory itself, .. the "parent" directory that preceeds it.20:54
EriC^^it will remove the unnecessary packages, including any old kernels and leave the last 220:54
MiauAnotherPCEriC^^: Oh, so this will remove the old ones?20:54
EriC^^MiauAnotherPC: yes20:54
k1lMiauAnotherPC: "sudo update-grub"20:55
k1lMiauAnotherPC: put the stuff into a pastebin then afterwards20:55
delinquentmejhutchins, right. so then the behavior would be the same20:55
MiauAnotherPCkll and EriC^^: Hmm, right, it's because I usually use grub customizer to make things easier for me to organize grub, but lemme  pastebinit20:56

bloodcageHey Guys... I've a question about the really odd swappiness thing.... I've seen many youtube videos and read many webpages about this topic now and I'm still not sure which value I should use on my system.... I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 unity with an dualcore 1.8ghz and 2 gb on ram. It would be nice to hear what values you are currently using and perhaps one has an advice for me. I was going to set the value to 40 but almost in every repo21:11
bloodcagert the value of 10 is given O.o21:11
quidnuncEriC^^: Now yes. I believe I did when I used swapoff in the past also.21:12
quidnuncEriC^^: "Sufficient" => Maybe I got a RAM spike and oom_killer got called which tanked my system21:13
bloodcageI got a very slow HDD with a swapdrive and a swapfile, each priority 5 and 2gb on space ...21:13
quidnuncEriC^^: Anyway, thanks21:13

metaldogi do not need instructions. i know what to do. its just that the only ones that work are lubuntu and ubuntu21:38

metaldogpeppermint os bazhang. all this will let me install tho are lubuntu and ubuntu21:43
Ary_Mainartkkkkkkkkkkkkkk21:43
Ary_Mainartim shure i didnt, but i will check anyway21:43
pantatoI looked up my issue on google and the internets want me to install a new kernel21:43
k1lmetaldog: does that OS have special requirements for been put on usb? ubuntu isos work with dd or startdisk creators like unetbooin or disk-creator21:43
Ary_Mainartthe most strange is because before works fine. then i format my ubuntu and install the same ubuntu version. when i tryed to acess network i got this21:45
metaldogi know they work. ive been doing it for 3 days. i have never had any issues doing this in windows, linux. zorin or even peppermint. ubuntu hates me, lol21:45
k1lmetaldog: what is the issue after the creating? did you check the iso? did you try to format the usb stick by hand?21:46
OerHeksmetaldog, ask in #peppermint on spotchat, don't blame ubuntu please21:46
magnulumetaldog: tried dd if=image.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M (replace X with your right device)21:47
metaldogif anyone knows the dd commands and could let me have em it would be nice...and im not blaming ubuntu, i just said it hates me, lol. i have done everything i can find or think of and the only usb os's that will work are lubuntu and ubuntu. slax linux wont even boot21:48
OerHekssure that usb is fat32?21:48
metaldogok, magulu, i will try it. thanks21:48

metaldogok, thanks, magulu21:50

magnulumetaldog: and note that there should not be any numbers after, if your memory stick is /dev/sdf, then put that, not /dev/sdf1 or whatever21:50
bearfaceumount it if its currently mounted before running dd21:51
basil1xYou can open the iso with 'Disk Image Writer' choose your USB, and tick 'Restore'.   It should create a bootable USB from any live image.21:51

k1lAry_Mainart: which ubuntu version is it exactly?21:58

bearfacehttp://jrs-s.net/2014/06/02/apache-2-4-ubuntu-trusty-problems/21:59
ben_gor is generating an image not the reccomended way for backing up an sd card?22:00
basil1xben_g, there's programmes to duplicate partitions.22:00
x0rsbearface, thank you22:00
daftykinsben_g: try clonezilla22:00
ben_gbasil1x: I'd like to put it all in one image, so I can easily restore the SD card if something goes wrong22:00
basil1xAH22:01
ben_gcan clonezilla do that?22:01
basil1xNever tried that.22:01
k1lAry_Mainart: see if that helps, which is from 2010 strangely :/ https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/11434522:01
basil1xI do backups by shoving everything onto the drives in the closet.22:01
ben_gwhat architecture is an i5? (I need that for the clonezilla download)22:03
k1lAry_Mainart: and make sure your ubuntu user is in the sambashare group22:04
basil1xIntel x6422:04
bearfaceben_g: "sudo dd if=/dev/sdX of=/home/username/nameoffile.img" (without double quotes)   where sdX is the device of the sdcard. will make an image of the sdcard and store it at /home/username/nameoffile.img22:05
ben_git only lets me choose between i686-pae, i486 and amd6422:05
k1lben_g: amd6422:05
ben_gbearface: how do I see the device?22:05
basil1xamd64, then22:05
ben_gin the explorer, I only see the separate partitions22:05
bearfaceif it's currently mounted 'mount' will list it22:06
Ben64dd would be easier than clonezilla for backing up an sd card22:06
bpromptben_g:   how big is the sdcard anyhow?22:06
ben_gbprompt: 8GB22:06
bpromptben_g:     am afraid I'd side with Ben64  on that... just run an "dd" line on it to make the image... .  the only thing about "dd" is that it stores also "blank" unused space, but does the job  ->   dd if=/dev/SDCARDENTRY  of=IMAGEFILEHERE22:08
daftykinsi think you guys are forgetting that with 'dd' a restoration will write to every LBA of the card again, which'll artificially reduce its' lifespan22:09
ben_gthe sdX thing seems to be different for each partition when I type mount22:09
bpromptben_g:      making an image of say   /dev/mmcblk1  or so.... would grab the device at raw.... irrelevant on how many partitiions there are or if it has an active or not partition and/or boot code in it22:09
bpromptben_g:     yes... the partitions would have a number at the end... say    /dev/mmcblk1   /dev/mmcblk2   and such.... the device itself, would only be say  /dev/mmcblk22:10
ben_gbprompt: ah, so I have to enter the name without the number?22:11
bpromptben_g:     so doing /dev/mmcblk   would gobble up the device at raw, and make it an image22:11
bpromptright22:11
ben_gok22:12
ben_gI guess it'll take quite a while to backup all that stuff, right?22:12
ben_g(the command gives no output yet, is that normal?)22:12
bearfacedepends on read speed of the card/controller and write speed of the HDD you back it up onto22:12
bearfaceyes, that is normal22:13
bearfaceben_g: it will only show output once it's done22:13
bpromptben_g:     depends... on the sdcard read speed... I'd think a class4 would be slower than a class10 one22:13
ben_gok,22:13
ben_gThanks guys22:13
bpromptben_g:      yeah.... is normal    "dd" is a  modest guy =)    but I check my disk i/o activity and that tells me it's working22:14
bearfaceadding conv=sparse could eliminate copying any empty space **i think**22:14
bpromptben_g:      like say I've done 8gbs  usb sticks "dd"   and on usb 1.0 stick  it took 25mins.... on a usb 2.0   took me about 8mins....    so I'd think a class10 sdcard    may take 10mins or less22:15
ben_goh well, if it contains lots of empty space, then I can still decrease the filesize later on by zipping it, so I don't really care22:15
ben_gwell, my hard drive is crap, so I guess I'll have to wait a while22:16
bpromptben_g:     yes... I've done that... like an 8gbs stick  I imaged... was half-emtpy   so I zipped it... of course, I had to unzip it first to reexpand it22:16
ben_gright click > properties on the image file says it's at 1.5GB, but I don't know if it's relyable22:16
daftykinsyou can get progress output from 'dd' by running "kill -USR1 $PID" where $PID = the process ID number of the 'dd' process22:17
bearface"pidof dd" to get the PID of dd for daftykins command22:18
micomi love you ubuntu, my box have crashed so i just moved my ssd disk to laptop and it works,  totally different hardware configuration, but it just works from the very beginning22:20

basil1xLet's all give a rousing shout to genericism. ;)22:22
daftykinsbasil1x: not sure on your point there?22:23
basil1xOnly mean the generic drivers work across hardware, where windows goes on a massive hunt that takes hours.22:24
hephaestus_rgok i have a problem that many of you might also have, please tell me otherwise:22:25
hephaestus_rgin the terminal, i use ctrl+shift+c to copy22:25
basil1xOK22:25
hephaestus_rgbut in google chrome, ctrl+shift+c opens the console22:25
basil1xyes22:25
hephaestus_rgdo you ever accidentally open the console when trying to copy something22:25
hephaestus_rgthat's really frustrating me right now22:25
basil1xno.  I use FireFox22:26
hephaestus_rgand there doesn't seem to be any way to change chrome hotkeys22:26
hephaestus_rgthis might be the 1 thing that force me to switch to firefox22:26
k1lhephaestus_rg: no. shortcuts can vary from program to program22:26
basil1xYou could shift the copy keys instead.22:26
basil1xPlenty unused macros lying about.22:27
hephaestus_rgwhat do you mean basil1x22:27
hephaestus_rg'shift the copy keys'22:27

OerHekshephaestus_rg, use ctrl + c to copy in chrome, ctrl + shift + c is for terminal only22:27
basil1xInstead of ctrl+shft+c, you could make it ctrl+alt+shft+k or summat22:27
hephaestus_rgis there some way to change the hotkey in chrome at the OS level? like rebind ctrl+shift+c to behave as if it was ctrl+c in chrome only?22:28

OerHeksalexxaa, k1l  told you to move sda5 to the start of sda4, then move sda6, then finally you can expand sda622:59
alexxaaOerheks, how to perform that23:00
alexxaaIt cannot be done23:00

splergyis that what you wanted? how would i go about fixing this?23:17
k1lsplergy: ok. like i thought. the backup partitions got a new uuid. you need to copy the one form he "sudo blkid" comand and paste it into the line in the fstab. use "sudo nano /etc/fstab" to edit the fstab23:18
