squintyGl4di4t0r:  that is not true (after spending years there I know there are very knowledgeable rascals there)00:37
xptopyhi00:37
k1lYamakasY: apt-mirror does not relate to your sources.list00:37
Gl4di4t0rok I asked in here because I thought it was done that same way in both ubuntu and mint00:37
ArchZombieI have a question, where are the keyboard layouts for ubuntu 14.04 located? I know that there are some in the directory for XKB but it does not have all of the layouts in the selected input method option in that directory, I was wondering where the rest of them are located at.00:38
YamakasYk1l: no, but I need to extend my mirror.list, the other one is easy to fix00:38
k1lYamakasY: the sources.list is a mess. you are lucky that works at all.00:39
squintyGl4di4t0r:  mint uses a combination of it's own and ubuntu repo's; not everything is the same.  consult the proper os channel for the best results.  :)00:39
YamakasYk1l: it's a 12.04 upgrade00:39
YamakasYk1l: but the mirror.list, let is concentrate on that one00:40
k1lYamakasY: that doesnt matter. you have gone crazy and copied stuff into there etc.00:40
k1lYamakasY: take a look at that list. its quite obvious what is wrong there00:41
=== kpease is now known as kpease_
Bashing-omArchZombie: What is the problem ? Some problems with keyboard layouts can be resolved by enabling the backport repository and updating the system .00:41
k1lYamakasY: all lines starting with a # are ignored.00:41
YamakasYk1l: no, I just followed the exammples00:41
YamakasYk1l: which one ? are you still on sources.list ?00:41
xptohello word00:41
ArchZombieI am trying to create a keyboard layout and wanted to start with one of the ones in the list as a base, but can't seem to find it.00:41
k1lYamakasY: on both lists.00:41
YamakasYk1l: 32 bits is commented on purpose00:41
ArchZombieI'm looking for the dvorak layout.00:42
YamakasYk1l: forget about the sources, it's a 14.04 upgrade because of some ldap stuff 12 doesn't have00:42
YamakasYcan fix that easy00:42
YamakasYk1l: 32 bits on the mirror is commented out, so ? it might be handy later on00:42
k1lYamakasY: so what is the issue at all?00:43
YamakasYk1l: on my local servers I miss too many resources, default Ubuntu install... so my mirror misses default stuff00:44

kotelhello all i first time try to configure ssh and i have some trouble..i use a vm ubuntu server where i've installed ssh and i try to reach from my host computer (ubuntu desktop)so the problem is when i try to connect e.g ssh 192.168.2.100 i use the root password as password and i get a deny...is there any default password or can i change the password from the config file?01:15
nomiccan you see the files on the drive01:15
fredricIn the terminal?01:16
fredricHow do I see the drive in the terminal?01:16
nomicyou obviously hafen't mount4ed the drive yet01:16
nomicim not sure it automounts with ubuntu .. is it a usb drive01:16
waressearcher2if I want to run programm at startup should I put it in .xsession ? the program is "xbindkey" and I want it to read my $HOME/.xbindkeysrc file so it should run with my user priveleges, not root01:17
somsipkotel: usually ssh as root is not enabled by default. Check in /etc/ssh/sshd_config01:17
fredricIt's visible in the folders file, so I think it's mounted.  It's an external HDD01:17
fredricUSB01:18
somsipkotel: and, there is no root password by default so if you've not added one, it isn't going to work like that. Login as a user and use sudo rather than using root01:18
xkubic19ahoj01:19
xkubic19ahoj01:19
xkubic19cau01:19
koteli don't acctually want to login as root but as normal user...the point is that i don't know what password to use to connect to ssh..i've not changed anything in config file yet..01:20
somsipkotel: login with the password for that user. Eg: ssh myuser@192.168.1.10 and then enter myuser's password on the remote machine01:21
nomicif its visible in the folders file, then it is mounted under "media" in your terminal, frederic01:21
nomicnot sure how to change permissions using the gui01:21
nomicyou are 1/2 way there fredric01:21
nomickeep asking people here01:21

daftykinsacovrig: depends how you're running it02:09
acovrigdaftykins, chown -R user:group /mnt/right/new; ls -lah /mnt/right/new shows root:root for everything...02:09
somsipacovrig: use sudo if they are currently root:root02:10
daftykinsyou did replace the user and group yes?02:10
acovrigdaftykins, yes02:10
daftykins^ and that02:10
acovrigsomsip, I can't really sudo a daemon that is configured to not run as root as a security thing02:10
JackelopeKingFor what it is worth the desktop shows no dash no unity sidebar but displays popup for myweatherapp with solid black around it as if a graphics driver is bout in use02:10
acovrigJackelopeKing, you using unity?02:11
daftykinsacovrig: you're dealing with the file system which does need root to be changed02:11
ufIs bash run as root02:11
uf?02:11
acovrigdaftykins, yes, I did sudo chown02:11
daftykinsJackelopeKing: can you install pastebinit and run "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" ?02:11
JackelopeKingAcovrig: I normally use unity02:12
somsipacovrig: that chown needs sudo to work. How you do that within what you're trying to achieve is difficult to know without knowing what you're doing. If it's a problem with accessing an external drive being mounted, then setup your mount correctly rather than trying to chown after the event02:12
acovrigdaftykins, and if I used the -v flag it says it changed the permissions...02:12
ufAh, apparently not02:12
acovrigJackelopeKing, yea, that happened to me, unity simply died, I purged everything graphical and re-installed with no success, so I have switched to KDE for the moment...02:13
daftykinsacovrig: this share isn't on an NTFS drive is it?02:13
acovrigdaftykins, no, it's an ext3 or ext4 as a virtualbox share so I can use samba because the version of mac the host is running can't do samba properly, so I'm using an ubuntu vm to run samba and a few other things02:14
JackelopeKingacovrig: I'm hoping to avoid that but may have to02:14
acovrigdaftykins, I may eventually (if I get the time) install ubuntu directly on the Xserve02:15
daftykinsacovrig: wow that's horrible :D02:15
acovrigdaftykins, yea, the hardware is quite sad, it can't run windows 8 and windows server 2012 vms at the same time, CPU meter peaks and it freezes solid...02:16
daftykinsacovrig: you know about forcing OS X to SMB1 yeah? didn't solve issues i take it?02:17
daftykinsJackelopeKing: sooo... pastebin? :)02:20
acovrigdaftykins, yea, and if memory serves, when I was researching it, the version before and after what I'm running works, but I can't upgrade it because the next version is "unsupported"...02:20
daftykinshrmm02:21

k2gremlinHey daftykins, remember when I was trying to get my SSH working with an IP on the server of .22?02:25
acovrigdaftykins, on a side note, is it possible for me to mkdir /mnt/new and use some random mount command to 'mount' a root:root directory as user:group, could I?02:27
daftykinsk2gremlin: don't think i was there for that one02:27

Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, is that southeast enough for you?04:58
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, oh sorry, that might be just images04:59
shiftlessthanks for that. I finally found the archive server04:59
shiftlessthis should do04:59
zykotick9shiftless: fyi, downloaded packages are stored in /var/cache/apt/archives/ just sayin'05:00
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, if I might, why do you want lots of packages?05:00
shiftlessI'm downloading files for a different computer on a different distro that has no internet access. and to be honest I'm sick and fucking tired of the entire "why save stuff? just download it the microsecond need it" mentality which has infected computing05:01
shiftlessI like having an archive hard drive that I can go straight to and grab whatever I need , that minute, even if there is no net05:01
shiftlessthanks for your help Seven05:01
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, aah I see. I was going to suggest apt-cacher, but that's only good for the same distro's packages05:02
shiftlessits Linux Mint. why they dont set up their own repository instead of parasiting off yours I have no clue05:02
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, I am using mint right now. It's because it's easier to have packages in one place when they're exactly the same, instead of duplicating the effort.05:03
shiftlessSure it is. Up until one day Ubuntu decides it's had enough of the distro it released a year ago, and decides to just delete the entire package repository one day, thus rendering one of my laptops completely useless since I can't update or install any packages05:05
shiftlessThe solution from the Mint guys? "just wipe and reinstall" my response: "fuck you"05:05
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, apt-cacher will work, since they're the same repo. I just mean it won't work for different package versions, etc. They don't delete the whole repo when support ends. It just changes location.05:06
shiftlessThat's good, so maybe I can just change the APT config and make it usable again. Still pisses me off though, because it's like nobody thinks beyond today when they are planning and designing this stuff. The mentality is, the internet and the contents will always be available, so there is no need to plan otherwise05:07
xanguagot my swap back :)05:08
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, it sounds like you need to be on LTS.05:08
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, and update but don't upgrade until next LTS05:08
shiftlessNo, I don't need to be on long term support. What I need is a distro that isn't built by morons. At this point no such thing exists. My distro was working fine one minute, then the next it's broken, and I'm told the solution is to reformat? to hell with that05:08
xanguathat attitude won't help05:09
shiftlessYour attitude definitely won't help05:09
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ [breezy .. oneiric]  main restricted universe multiverse05:11
shiftlessThanks seven, I'll update that config file05:11
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, change your /etc/sources.list to match that for all lines05:11
sacarlson1shiftless: there is no real reason you can't keep an old ubuntu system running forever if it has all you need already in it.  but you have to be responsible enuf to back it up to allow recovery in failures05:12
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, you can also mirror the entire repository, but it's very large.05:12
shiftlessI'm trying to find some kind of tool like wget which will download every file from 2014 only. wget doesn't do it05:12
sacarlson1shiftless: don't expect someone else to backup your computer for you05:12
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, why from 2014 only?05:13
sacarlson1shiftless: there are tools to setup your own apt mirror, is that what you want?05:14
shiftlesssacarlson, I don't expect anyone to back up my computer for me. I don't need anyone to backup my computer for me. What I expect is for people to not release a piece of shit that is going to fuck up my life when it stops working like it's supposed to, for no obvious reason, and with no support given whatsoever. In fact I simply got booted from the Linux Mint channel when I told them that the "solution" they were telling me (reformat and reinstall) was i05:15
shiftlessdiotic05:15
sacarlson1shiftless: it only takes 50gb for the entire mirror set to have it local http://www.unixmen.com/setup-local-repository-ubuntu-14-0413-1013-04-server/05:16
shiftlessSeven: because it seems all the Ubuntu packages from different versions all inhabit the same pool, so I don't want to mirror all the other versions too05:16
shiftlessjust trusty05:16
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, debmirror will let you do that05:18
shiftlessYeah I saw that apt-mirror crap but I don't want to devote my entire life to mirroring some packages. Shouldn't have to be editing config files and search, just type a command and hit go. I just found that curl will do the job, with the -z option05:19
Seven_Six_Twoapt-mirror is not debmirror05:20
shiftlessnice05:21
shiftlessThanks for the tip...looks like a good tool05:21
Seven_Six_Twoit's a bit of a setup, but you only do it once.05:22
sacarlson1shiftless: you really only had to modify ONE line in ONE file to make it work ha ha.  the other file was if you wanted to keep it updated at some regular basis that I assume you don't05:22
lotuspsychjegood morning to all05:23
shiftlesssacarlson1, I just hate that everything these days is buried behind some unique interface that requires unique tools to use. In an ideal world everything would be on an ftp (or similar) server divided out into subdirectories so you could just grab what you need, no matter what OS or computer you happen to be on that moment05:24
sacarlson1shiftless: I like the way it is.  I don't even know were the ftp site is I just hit a box and it installs everything needed.  don't have to think about ftp05:26
sacarlson1shiftless: but you are always free to write another one that's better oh and it has to b FREE05:26

igoryonyahello, I have some sshfs file systems, configured in fstab, they don't always connect automatically after the system boots up and I have to do mount -a. Is there a way to fix that behaviour and make sure that they get connected every time.05:32
Seven_Six_Twoshiftless, it's more like the wild west. There's actual progress (Read: change) and learning. Are you studying computer engineering?05:34
sacarlson1igoryonya: seems I've seen this before since fstab actions run before network is stable.  so you would have to add a script change in ipup actions05:34
sacarlson1igoryonya: I can provide you more details of what to change if you like05:35
shiftlessWhat we are looking at right now is a leaning tower of Babel, composed of bullshit, which is now threatening to collapse onto people's homes and neighborhoods. That's why we have to bulldoze it and start it from scratch. Every one in a while you need a revolution05:37

=== slyrus_ is now known as slyrus
sacarlson1igoryonya: a cluge method would be just add a script to cron with @reboot , that also adds some long sleep 120 ; delay to hopefuly sure the net is up that would run sudo mount -a05:38
shiftlessI'm 31 years old. I remember as a kid being told that computers would make our lives easier. Somehow it didn't quite work out that way05:38
shiftlessStill waiting on that flying car too05:39
igoryonyasacarlson1, the first thing, I've thought about, was to add the script to cron that once a minute checks, if the devices were mounted, if not, check if network is connected, if it is, call mount -a. But I thought, that it's a crude method of a person that doesn't know how to do it better (I am talking about me) and would like to do it the right way. Do you mean, I need to do something in '/etc/network/if-up.d/'?05:44
sacarlson1igoryonya: yes that sounds like the place to try in if-up.d05:46
sacarlson1igoryonya: so any time the net went down and back up it would remount I guess if needed05:46
EriC^^igoryonya: you could use this to check if it's mounted if ( df | grep -qs <label of disk> ); then ..05:48
igoryonyasacarlson1, What I am wondering, since I've never put scripts there before, are they any special, or just a regular bash files, where I can just put mount -a inside?05:48
EriC^^or mount point instead of label of disk would be better05:49
EriC^^igoryonya: i think you have to run the script with root privileges05:50
sacarlson1igoryonya: I'm not sure I would have reserch to be sure but I think any bash script will work.  anything in that dir will be run when connected that's all you really have to know05:50

davejacobswhen i’m installing ubuntu as a 3rd OS on a 3rd SSD (after Arch and Windows), can I trust Ubuntu to know where to install itself?06:34
davejacobsor should i manually partition and setup encryption?06:34
mindless_chaoshere is a question for the masses... Installing postfix, in the middle of installing it, it askes to add a new user, however when I type a user name and hit enter it just returns to a new line and that's it06:36
davejacobs(this isn’t too easy to search in the docs, but I’ve done a little bit of research)06:36
mindless_chaosany idea's06:36
sacarlson1davejacobs: with 3 systems you might want to manualy point it.  it will look and ask you so if you like it's pick then maybe that will work too06:38
davejacobssacarlson1: are you saying that there’s a way to manually point to an SSD but have Ubuntu do the full installation w/o me partitioning?06:39
EriC^^mindless_chaos: press enter twice?06:41
Seven_Six_Twodavejacobs, do manual partitioning, unless the installer guesses what you want to do by default.06:41
mindless_chaoslol, pressed it a brazzilion times06:41
sacarlson1davejacobs: at install time it asks how you want to partition.  one option is other that provides you manual control of partition location and type06:41

sacarlsondavejacobs: I thought it points out before it does anything this is what it plans to do  with /dev/sda1.... type format of were it plans to put it.  if you just clear a partition it should pick that by default06:46
mindless_chaosI just got a big pile of junk.. let me look at this06:46
flexdI am having a weird nvidia/xrandr problem... I can use the machine just fine with a external monitor (extended), but when I try to disable the laptop screen and only use the external screen I get a xrandr error06:46
davejacobssacarlson: it feels like the button i was about to press was about to start the partition without confirming, but i could try :)06:47
mindless_chaoslet me remove and start fresh06:47
EriC^^ok06:47
flexdCould not switch monitor configuration: could not set the configuration for CRTC 6406:47
mindless_chaosi don't understand why it is hung up at adding a user....06:48
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, do you have the external screen set as primary? how are you disabling the laptop screen?06:48
sacarlsondavejacobs: just keep a close eye on it.  I don't remember off hand were that last confirm is so you can test it in virtualbox to verify you know what it does first if there is much to risk06:49
mindless_chaosoooh ooooh, maybe...06:49

mindless_chaosI waited when it seemd to be stuck, and something happend, so maybe I am being impatient, and its working, just not verbosly06:52

Seven_Six_Twoflexd, oh that's interesting. you have a laptop with both onboard and external video, but one port?07:05
XeusAnyone experience this problem before?07:05
flexdSeven_Six_Two: yes07:06

Seven_Six_Twoflexd, not that that will necessarily help with your problem, but it's designed for optimus.07:08
flexdSeven_Six_Two: Yes, but the laptop has an issue with nvidia07:09

xanguam000gle: supet+a (applications)07:12

Seven_Six_Twoflexd, ok, so if the nv isn't connected to the port, then you're almost certainly referencing the wrong device in xrandr07:12

Seven_Six_Twoflexd, without mentioning the other07:24
Seven_Six_Twoalthough it looks like it's failing because you're trying to force the vga port to be primary, not because you're trying to turn off the actual primary07:27

Seven_Six_Twoflexd, does your external turn off when you close the laptop lid?07:50
flexdThe laptop suspends when I close the lid.07:50
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, you can change that.07:50
flexdYes, but I like it this way, and changing it won't cure a graphics problem.07:50
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, if you don't suspend, you can make the laptop screen turn off, and iirc make the external stay on07:51
flexdand also, opening the laptop screen up again would probably re-enable the laptop screen, so there would be no point :/07:51
sekjun9878Hello07:52
sekjun9878I think I have found a bug with preseeding07:52
Seven_Six_Twowhy do you need the screen off then?07:52
Seven_Six_Twosekjun9878, torrents?07:52
sekjun9878I mean preseeding as in, Installer ISO preconfiguration. This is on the official 14.04 server amd64 ISO, as verified by md5 hash. You can find the video of reproduction here: https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=38CF7909FB5D5B47&id=38CF7909FB5D5B47%21163507:53
mehdi_hey guys when i run sudo apt-get updatte i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/9246205/  how can i fix it?07:53
sekjun9878(Video may not work, in which case you can download it. It's only 2MB)07:53
sekjun9878Essentially, the bug seems to be Ubuntu Installer being unable to read the preconfiguration file at /cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-server.seed....07:54

Ben64user1201: pastebin the full command and error07:56
flexdSeven_Six_Two: Because I can't see the screen07:56
flexdThe laptop is connected to a KVM, it is in another room07:56
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, why is closing the lid no good?07:56
DSK_Hi07:57
flexdBecause A) Opening it up would turn the screen on again, which would still mean anyone near the laptop could read the things on the screen. and B) Using the lid to  turn off the monitor is no less going to make it fail.07:58
flexdIt still uses xrandr, so what is the difference between the lid-closing running the command or me doing it? absolutely nothing07:58
sekjun9878Please ping me when anyone technical checks out the bug07:58
flexdChanging how the command is invoked will not alter how the command is executed.07:58
Ben64sekjun9878: you haven't provided enough information to check anything08:01
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, The first point makes the second irrelevant, but if closing the lid actually turns off the screen, while any invocation of xrandr that you or I come up with fails, then I'm guessing it's the specific arguments needed. I don't profess to be an expert on xrandr. sorry I couldn't help more.08:01
sekjun9878Ben64: What other information do you need? I am happy to provide them - that's just the proof of reproduction08:02
user1201Ben64 and all : i have a custom debian package which is unreleased.it got installed but for some reasons i want to remove it but unable to remove it. should i locate and remove all files08:02
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, I hadn't actually thought about how it's actually turned off either...08:02
flexdSeven_Six_Two: My point is that closing the screen would not just magically turn off the screen..08:02
sekjun9878It might not be a bug for all I know, but that's happening and I can't find any other reasonable explanation for it happening except that it's a bugt08:03
Ben64user1201: well that is up to you then if it is not an ubuntu package08:03
Seven_Six_Twoflexd, no, fair enough. I hadn't considered it, but I thought maybe the bios managed the switch? I don't know.08:04

warkosignthe only option I see is to disconnect the HDD with the existing ubuntu partition and try the live CD now. if then I have sound, it proves the lack of sound comes from the existing installation. However, even if it's true - how do I tell the live CD NOT to use a partition during its startup ?08:28
kyubotsuit won't08:29
kyubotsuthe point of the live CD is to boot a system in RAM. or so i think is the point08:30

warkosignkyubotsu:I suspect the live CD uses hardware settings of an existing ubuntu installation, otherwise I can't explain how live cd of 14.4 doesn't play sound on my system08:31

kyubotsuwarkosign: negative. the liveCD will use your hardware though.. it wont touch the HDD unless you mount it08:33

ash`user1201: using "man dpkg" contains the documentation that may help you08:52
warkosignkyubotsu: yep. aplay <file> as well.08:52
ash`user1201: For example dpkg --yet-to-unpack *may* be the flag you need; maybe just "dpkg *.deb" to test their status; i'd recommend looking there first.08:53
kyubotsuwarkosign: do you have a sound card or just the onboard audio?08:53
warkosignonboard audio08:54
kyubotsuwarkosign: and you're sure speakers are plugged in the correct socket?08:54
ash`user1201: then with that you could pipe any result via grep and output a list to a tmp file; use that to move installed deb packages and then use the command as suggested by brontosaurusrex.08:54
warkosignkyubotsu:they worked before the upgrade, so I assume they are. I did try every possible socket since. Also, when I mute/unmute there is a click, and when I set volume for microphone or line in for very high value in alsamixer I hear humming08:56

kyubotsuwarkosign: even the front ones for headphones?08:57
warkosigndid not try these, will try once I get home08:57
ash`user1201: probably because it's a global flag - then try "-I" or "--info"08:58
ash`i'd still just do what brontosaurusrex said: install them all anyway - since if it's installed it wont reinstall unless told to do so08:59
kyubotsuwarkosign: at least we have determined software is functional so it must be a hardware issue. whether it is a hardware failure is still to be proved08:59
kyubotsuunfortunately i don't know how else to test this. and purchasing a sound card for this purpose might be overkill , although not necessarily a bad thing09:01

javnutthis is going to sound crazy, because it is11:30
javnutI want to set up a server which waits for javascript to AJAX commands to it11:30
javnutand then I want those commands executed on my computer11:30
ubuntuser13unable to reset unity, unity restore to default automatically ?11:30
BadApejavnut: what?11:31
iptablejavnut: you want to receive commands on your webserver and execute them?11:31
iptablejavnut: do you know how ajax works?11:31
javnutiptable: yes11:31
javnutyes to both your questions11:31
BadApewhy do you want to do that?11:32
javnutI want certain windows to pop up when someone does a certain thing11:32
iptablejavnut: ajax is a javascript interface which essentially connects to your webserver with post variables. so essentially you want apache2 webserver with php, and you want php to execute whatever it get's in an ajax call POST parameter on the box.11:32
javnutwindows to pop up on my side I mean11:32
BadApejavnut: so you want to create some web services to execute commands11:32
iptablejavnut: so what is stopping a malicious person from rm -rf / ?11:32
javnutiptable: yup, but I don't know php11:32
javnutiptable: if statements11:33
BadApejavnut: what do you know?11:33
javnutBadApe: java, c#11:33
javnutsome c++11:33
BadApethen use java11:33
BadApewrite a simple cgi script11:33
BadApepost some commands and have them exec11:33
javnutI'm doing it in php11:33
iptablejavnut: or harvest the code from this: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/beginners-guide-to-ajax-development-with-php11:33
javnutbecause I can't11:33
BadApei can't wait to compromise your system11:33
BadApeok then do it in php11:34
BadApedoesn't matter what language11:34
iptablejavnut: but on the data you get from ajax in PHP, execute the exec() or system() instead. check php.net documentation for the exec commands and their parameters11:34
javnutBadApe: ok, this is going to get even crazier11:34
OerHeksiptable, without sudo that comand is useless11:34
BadApehe can execute the script as root11:34
iptableOerHeks: that depends on WHAT he wants to execute11:34
iptablebut yes11:34
BadApethat is a good idea11:35
BadApeby the way, don't do anything i just said11:35
javnutwhat if I want like a circular closed loop, only ajax calls from the same computer will reach the server11:35
BadApejavnut: do you know what ajax is?11:35
javnutBadApe: yes11:35
iptablejavnut: you could run as root. although a better option would be this: 1. user enters webpage and asks to do a predefined command. 2. php code writes this down to a text file. 3. a c/bash application runs and check what the command is and interprets it to a safe executable command and runs that instead.11:36
javnutiptable: way ahead of you on that11:36
iptablejavnut: so you want that only on local box, as in make the webserver listen on loopback interface only?11:36
javnutwell, not way ahead, but exactly there11:36
BadApejust make sure someone doesn't guess a way to escape and inject their own commands11:36
javnutiptable: yes11:36
iptablejavnut: just make apache2 webserver listen on 127.0.0.1 only11:37
BadApeyou will have to sanitize the data11:37
javnutBadApe: well, they won't11:37
BadApeyou hope they won't11:37
javnutespecially since this is only going to be from the same computer11:37
BadApewhy do you need a webapp to do this?11:37
iptablejavnut: I do something similar to punch a hole in my firewalls from very restricted locations. I access a php page, php notes down my IP to a text file and a bash script opens iptables firewall for that IP.11:37
javnutI have a grease monkey file which does stuff11:37
javnutbut sometimes, it needs me to do stuff manually11:38
javnutand I need firefox to popup when I need to manually do stuff11:38
iptablejavnut: time to learn php then ;) check the link I sent you. it's a step by step for php and ajax.11:38
iptablejavnut: also, configuring apache2 to listen on localhost only is a breaze11:39
BadApesounds like the most horrible idea i've heard in here for ages11:39
iptableBadApe: no, it's classed as a not good idea, but not the worst of the week :P11:39
BadApeno? have you heard a worse one?11:39
javnutBadApe: well then what's a better solution?11:39
BadApejavnut: i don't really understand what your end goal is11:40
iptableBadApe: besides if you happen to be in a location where only ports 80 and 443 are allowed out and you normally run a webserver on those, how will you ssh? webserver-type-port-knocking ;)11:40
javnutfor my firefox window to popup so I can do the manual stuff that I can't do with javascript11:40
iptablejavnut: if it's only local and you have a script which will sanitise what php asks it to do (instead of raw commands, have a "i want you to do this" interface between them)11:41
iptablejavnut: then it's fine11:41
=== paulo is now known as paulovap
javnutiptable: I agree it's fine, but if there's a better solution11:41
javnutI'm all ears11:41

iptablejavnut: well, I don't know what the exact goal is, so can't say. How about an email notification? or a jabber message?11:42
javnutnope, it has to pop up11:42
iptablejavnut: a popping up jabber message then?11:42
javnutyeah, that's fine11:42
iptablejavnut: or run your own SIP server which will call your mobile phone :D11:43
welovfreehello11:43
javnutthat's worse, not better11:43
iptablejavnut: me and BadApe do not know what the actual goal is, so can't really advise on other ways to do that.11:43
iptablejavnut: run your own SIP serer which will call your phone and TELL YOU what you need to do manually. that's cool!11:43
javnutiptable: basically, I just need an alert for when my javascript file is at an impass11:43

BadApebut i am about done, my head is starting to hurt with the craziness11:44

iptablewell, I can't advise you if you are not specific, can I?11:45
BadApeiptable: i use magic11:45

javnutiptable: yes11:45
BadApeare you trying to remotely control a website?11:45
BadApei wrote a crawler that processed pages before11:45
javnutuhhh.. don't you remotely control all websites?11:45
iptablejavnut: you do realise that they have captcha appear at some point because their T&Cs don't allow automation, and therefore you are braking their rules and the law?11:46
javnutiptable: yes11:46
iptablejavnut: well, I'm sorry for this, but we cannot help you break the law on this channel11:46
BadApei would say i interact with a website, i don't control it11:46
iptablewe only do legal stuff here11:46
iptableubuntuser13: what's behaves abnormally?11:47
javnutis it legal if no one cares?11:47
BadApei am sure the people who run the site care11:47
iptablejavnut: no, your question is: is it legal if no one noticed? No, it's illegal activities to go against T&Cs11:47
BadApethat is why they put the capture there to stop robots dos'ing them11:47

iptableLachezar: as I already said, download the source using apt-source and look at ubuntu-specific stuff. it will tell you how it was built and configured11:59

iptableMarasgeon: yes. command-line utility12:09
iptableMarasgeon: sudo apt-get install dos2unix12:10
iptableMarasgeon: then run dos2unix /your/file/here12:10
Marasgeoniptable: so everytime i will have to convert the txt file?12:10
iptableMarasgeon: that will convert the file escape chars to unix format12:10
iptableMarasgeon: yes. Windows is incompatible with the rest of the world. Rest of world uses \n escape. Windows uses 2 characters, \r\n12:10

samgoodyI need it to be the default.14:17
samgoodysudo apt-get python3.414:17
samgoodyWith the ppa that has all versions of python14:17
somsipsamgoody: so swap /usr/bin/python to point at python3.4 executable. Sounds a bit ugly though...14:18

samgoodyMeaning symlink to 3.4 in usr/bin?14:20
somsipsamgoody: /usr/bin/python3 should point to the same executable as /usr/bin/python3.4 (which I believe is probably a symlink too)14:21

NeonGenwhenever I try to playback a video from youtube using minitube or VLC, it plays with too much brightness14:57
cfhowlettLeartS, 10.04 desktop is long since end-of-life14:57
k1l_AlexPortable: i mean the system inside the vbox since its the guest who needs the guest additions.14:57
AlexPortableyes14:58
AlexPortablek1l_: installed. and rebooted. what now?14:58
mribeirodantask1l_, I can't.14:58
KatnissEverdeenhi14:58
k1l_AlexPortable: see if the error happens again14:58
LeartSmribeirodantas: why would you set up a python 3 project on a 10.04 server? that's a really strange combo14:58
AlexPortableyes it does14:59
AlexPortableError: unable to open display14:59
AlexPortablei think it's because it's in text mode (ctrl alt f1)14:59
mribeirodantasLeartS, The server is being used by several other projects14:59
mribeirodantasThey gave me space in it14:59
mribeirodantasI can't just do a fresh install. Several other projects are using it14:59
k1l_AlexPortable: look into the settings you did for that guest. choose wisely. error will be gone15:00

NeonGenanyone know how to fix h.264 playback being way too bright under ubuntu?15:14
reisioNeonGen: via what player?15:14
NeonGenboth VLC and minitube15:14
reisioNeonGen: probably how your graphics driver is configured, but15:14
reisioNeonGen: VLC can play at any brightness/gamma you prefer15:15
reisioask #vlc about it15:15
reisiooh maybe they killed that channel, fools15:15
reisio#videolan in that case15:15
NeonGenit seems to be an issue with a codec both players share, when I play a h.264 video on youtube, both the flash and HTML5 player do fine15:16
NeonGenalbeit stuttering like hell15:16
NeonGenalso playing h.264 on the same box under windows, it plays fine regardless of the player15:18
reisioI'd still suspect the driver first15:18
reisiobut <shrug>15:18
NeonGenhmm in that case I have a problem, it's a very old pentium 4 machine15:19
NeonGenwith an even older VGA chip :P15:19
cfhowlettNeonGen, could be your GPU doesn't suppport h.26415:19
reisio...15:19
NeonGenhmm might it help if find a way to force VLC to use software acceleration?15:20
NeonGenmy main goal is to get 360p youtube video playback possible, I don't need HD quality h.264 playback15:21

dianne167hello.  i have xubuntu 14.04, and i am using cairo dock.  i like to use google chrome, with application specific windows for my gmail and facebook, and google docs.  i used to be able to use them and they would show up like their own application on the dock, to be minimized and maximized or whatever, with their own app specific icon...  for some reason right now, they are all just showing up as chrome windows, even if there16:02
dianne167 is an app shortcut for gmail on the dock, when i clock the gmail icon it opens up with a separate chrome icon on the dock16:02
dianne167i do not know when this started happening, but can someone point me to what settings or whatever have an effect on this?16:02
HollyCowOSWindows have servicesTM16:03
HollyCowOScan you use the same word on linux?16:03
bynariewell it is a service.... you use the service command16:04
sneyjust because windows used a term doesn't mean microsoft has it copyrighted/trademarked16:04

bynariei use the one from apt16:23

harushimoi think so16:27
harushimoyeah I use unity2d16:27
bynariestoogenmeyer, i had same problem..... what video card do you have?16:27
k1l_harushimo: that is deprecated now. so that messages thinks you run unity2d because your videocard cant do 3d.16:27
k1l_harushimo: just ignore that16:27
stoogenmeyerbynarie: um how does it relate to a graphics card?16:28
stoogenmeyeri dont know actually16:28
bynarieit does16:28
harushimoI don't understand that either16:28
bynarieuefi doesnt matter16:28
harushimohow does that related to the graphics card16:28
harushimoare newer graphics card coming with 3d accelerations?16:28
k1l_harushimo: unity2d was just a fallback desktop for people having a video card not able to run 3d.16:28
bynariei installed ubuntu on my w8 preinstalled laptop16:28
bynarieturns out it was the video card causing the usb not to boot16:29
harushimook16:29
LeartSlancelot_of: I did opened /usr/share/applications/apvlv.desktop, added ' %f' to the exec line, launched sudo update-desktop-database and it worked16:29
harushimoif I do an upgrade, I really shouldn't see any performance difference16:29
stoogenmeyerbynarie: wow i would not expect that (-:16:29
k1l_harushimo: not the 3d like you see in the cinema. but the 3d like "better grafic on a pc monitor". like the 3d cube desktop etc16:29
LeartSlet me know if it does for you too16:29
bynarieits true16:29
k1l_harushimo: no, ignore that error16:29
harushimothank you16:29
harushimoI'll do the upgrade now16:29
bynariestoogenmeyer, make sure you have secureboot disabled and if u are running an nvidia card, set kernel options to nomodeset16:30
HollyCowOShow can i get my windowsxp vm to run on vmware?16:30
lancelot_ofLeartS, i copied that file in my .local/share/applications/, added %U at the end of Exec line and it worked16:30
lancelot_ofLeartS, thank you very much16:30
bynarieand just so you know, with uefi crap, every computer is different16:30
stoogenmeyerbynarie: would you believe me if i said that to get it to boot i had to use a different usb port?16:30
bynariethere really is no standard way to install16:30

HollyCowOSit need something to do with slick to run some bios "hack"?16:30
modafinilI know systemd is coming as a default init in 15.04, but will it remain an option to use upstart(or whatever) instead relatively simply (I don't care about gnome if that changes the answer)?16:30

mindless_chaosafter smacking my self in the forehead I renamed it and SWOOSH, install fine16:50
peskaI had 12.04 installed on my Computer with Nvidia GPU, I took the HDD and put it in another laptop with Intel integrated Graphic card. Now the issue is that when i run a youtube video in Google Chrome the screen simply goes black and I can't do anything else but turn off the laptop. The computer isn't hanged as I can hear the background sound16:50
mindless_chaosHowever I did do a purge before so it was clean from the sttart16:50
EriC^^cool16:50
MACscr-lappyhow do i verify my nic has vlan support?16:50
peskaWhat is going on here?16:50
peskaany ideas?16:51
mindless_chaosSo now the only thing I have is a bunch of errors on boot after I updated16:52
mindless_chaosHOWEVER... it may have something to do with my adduser script....16:52
k1l_peska: remove all nvidia packages?16:52
* mindless_chaos smacks forehead again16:52
k1l_peska: sudo apt-get purge nvidia*16:52
EriC^^hehe16:52
mindless_chaosI have to get food, brb16:52
peskak1l_, ok and then install the integrated graphics packages?16:53
* mindless_chaos is AFK16:53
k1l_peska: they work with the kernel. no need to install drivers16:53
qqlapralineDoes someone can help me?16:53
RustyShacklefordso I updated yesterday, the only update available was for ubuntu-base. Now I can't log in16:53
RustyShacklefordthis is 14.0416:54
k1l_RustyShackleford: cant login means?16:54
RustyShacklefordlogin menu shows up. I type in my password, login box disappears16:54
RustyShacklefordI'm left staring at the purple background of the login screen16:54
k1l_RustyShackleford: other user or guest account works?16:54
RustyShacklefordno idea, I guess I could try16:55
RustyShacklefordis the guest account set up automatically?16:55
k1l_not sure actually16:55
Eyobhi16:56
RustyShacklefordwell i'll try the guest account16:57
RustyShacklefordif that doesn't work, I'm stumped16:57
Eyob??16:57
RustyShacklefordi'm a little bummed this happened to me with an LTS release16:57
Eyobמםמ ים בשפןאם16:57
RustyShacklefordI can't make it past the login screen with the guest account either17:03
RustyShacklefordI'm finding similar issues on google from several months ago17:04
k1l_RustyShackleford: what video driver is installed?17:05
RustyShacklefordbut this seems to be related to the update I installed yesterday17:05
RustyShacklefordk1l_: fgrlx17:05
k1l_from ubuntu or from amd website?17:05
k1l_(or some ppa)17:05
RustyShacklefordk1l_: ubuntu's repos17:06
LeartSk1l_: where did you read he updated the video driver?17:06
RustyShacklefordpretty sure I chose the stable driver17:06
LeartSRustyShackleford: what packages got updated yesterday?17:06
k1l_ok. something encrypted? like /home?17:07
hazrpganyone setup a localhost mailbox before? I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get a mail client to read them (although maybe I configured it wrong?) could someone help?17:07
k1l_LeartS: just checking typical issues17:07
RustyShacklefordLeartS: I updated using their gui tool that alerts you. It said ubuntu-base was being updated17:08
RustyShacklefordgoogle suggests my unity settings are fudged up17:08
k1l_RustyShackleford: does .Xauthority belong to user:user? or root:root?17:09
LeartSRustyShackleford: ubuntu base it's a "category" you should have a little triangle next to it and if you click on it you'll see the single packages getting updated17:09
LeartSthe same foes for security17:10
LeartS*goes17:10
RustyShacklefordk1l_: which si correct? I'll have to reboot to check17:10
N3sh108hello! I have a question concerning using a USB stick with persistence for a small home server. How much would my USB pen wear off?17:10
N3sh108Is it a bad idea to do such a thing?17:11
reisioN3sh108: like any hardware, it will work just fine all the way up to the point when it doesn't17:12
usr13N3sh108: It goes by number of read/writes and it's in the 10s of thousands.  They last a pretty long time.17:12
reisiogiven that the average USB stick is a $10 investment, I wouldn't contemplate on it too long17:12
k1l_RustyShackleford: user:user (where user is your actuall user name)17:12
N3sh108I see17:12
N3sh108so, my idea of reviving my old laptop (which has no HD) and turn it into a small home server connected to a NAS, is not a dumb idea; right?17:13
arkjjhey guys. it seems my dns (or something) on a server i am playing with is somehow set up to try to append .com to all unresolved domains17:13
arkjjany idea where to change something / look for something?17:13
usr13arkjj: What nameserver are you using now?17:14
arkjji have set up google public dns as dns server btw17:14
usr138.8.8.8?17:14
arkjjyes, and 8.8.4.417:14
LeartSobviously it's thousand of writes *per block*, not in general, or it would last 10 minutes17:14
usr13arkjj: cat /etc/hosts  #See if you see anything odd there.17:14
N3sh108LeartS: yeah, of course :P17:15
usr13arkjj: Wait.  How are you apending .com to everything.  (Namservers don't do that.)17:15
N3sh108Thanks, then! Let's see how it will work :D  -> reisio, usr1317:15
LeartSso, generally, the larger the USB stick the longer its life cycle17:15
usr13LeartS: Not so sure about that....17:16
arkjjusr13: it's happing like this: if i f.example `ping abc` i see this: PING abc.com (199.181.132.250) 56(84) bytes of data.17:16
arkjjusr13: also, if i `curl abc -I` then I see curl also thinks this is abc.com17:16
usr13arkjj: host example.com17:16
usr13arkjj: Like   host av.com17:16
LeartSusr13: why not? assuming a good controller that spreads the writes kinda uniformely17:17
peskak1l_, I purged Nvidia packages but still the screen crashes. BTW I don't have the same problem on Firefox17:17
arkjj`host abc` gives Host abc not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)17:17
arkjjusr13: and `host abc.com` gives me a host17:17
usr13arkjj: Try av.com17:17
usr13Oh ok17:18
usr13arkjj: Some servers do not return pings.17:18
LeartSusr13: i'm no expert btw, just stuff I've read here and there. e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_leveling17:18
usr13arkjj: (They block ping requests.)17:18
arkjjhttp://pastebin.com/dmpcw6fx17:18
arkjjusr13: but the i can also do this: http://pastebin.com/xzXkr89M17:19
arkjjusr13: ...and this: http://pastebin.com/Es4ZwkiN17:21

timvisherwhat's the apt package (or whatever that actually needs to be) to install the bash info manuals on 14.04?17:31
maletorIf I have a GPT with 2 partitions and I remove the first one and expand the second one into it's space, will I lose all data?17:32
reisiotimvisher: as in 'info bash'?17:32
usr13arkjj: Do you think you may have a nameserver problem?17:32
reisiotimvisher: ask apt-file about 'bash.info'17:32
usr13arkjj: pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf  #Send URL, well will look and see.17:32
usr13arkjj: It is usually best to use the nameserver suggested by your ISP.17:33
arkjjusr13: http://pastebin.com/uwjehuBq17:33
arkjjusr13: well, this is a cheap vps on digital ocean17:34
usr13arkjj: Set your router to your ISPs nameserver and have your PCs use your router's caching nameserver.17:34
timvisherreisio: ooo. what's apt-file? :)17:34
* mindless_chaos is back17:35
arkjjusr13: hm, well i dont really control the router on digital ocean :p17:35
reisiotimvisher: something you will apprecaite17:36
reisioand also appreciate17:36
reisioIIRC: sudo apt-get install apt-file; apt-file17:37
reisioand it'll tell you how to make it work17:37
usr13arkjj: Well, it is probably set to the nearest/fastest nameserver, and it probably has a caching nameserver you can use.  So try setting your PC's to use it's IP address as nameserver17:38
timvisherreisio: yep. i'm on it. :)17:38
reisiothen it's something like apt-file search bash.info17:38
usr13arkjj: But as long as the primary one does not fail, there will be very little difference.17:38
timvishernow that is neat :)17:38
usr13arkjj: For instance, when I ping 8.8.4.4 from here I get ping times in the low 40's (ms).  When I ping 8.8.8.8, I get mid 40's (Not much difference17:39
reisiotimvisher: :)17:39

mindless_chaos?17:46
kyle_Austinthe iframes don't show full document...17:46

MralexxxI installed ubuntu using wubi and now i am stuck on grub rescue mode17:46

bumbar_i've connected phone to pc, how can i view files on phone?17:47
usr13kyle_Austin: Open the document with an on-board pdf viewer17:47
MralexxxYeah to rescue.. it says error unknown filesystem17:48
MralexxxCan i fix it somehow17:48
usr13kyle_Austin: (Printing from a browser is hit and miss)17:48
kyle_Austinusr13: You think this is not going to work?17:48
MralexxxI tried put windows 7 disc and try repair but it says wrong version17:49
usr13kyle_Austin: Why not?17:49
reisiokyle_Austin: print one, and print the other17:49
kyle_AustinI have tried making pdf an object, using iframe, embedding...  Nothing seems to work.17:49
mindless_chaosare you trying to fix ubuntu or windows?17:49

MralexxxCannot access any of them17:49
kyle_AustinI am building an application that requires a 'print option' that includes a ton of information, some of the info is being displayed in html while many pdf documents need to be included.17:50
usr13kyle_Austin: Can you send me the pdf file?17:50
user3hi guys, is there a sollution to save a whole website as an archive. This whole website should behave as a website when opened. I'm a former apple-thingy user where this was possible to save a website as .webarchive file.17:50
reisiouser3: httrack17:50
mindless_chaosdo it a few times.17:50
kyle_Austinusr13: any multi page pdf would work.17:50
theadminuser3: Use httrack, yup17:50
usr13kyle_Austin: Ok, well pdf documents are images.17:50
mindless_chaosThat will restore windows master boot record17:50
reisiousr13: -%M17:50
theadminuser3: It will not create a single file, but many files, you should still be able to browse it offline though17:50
MralexxxHow to boot to cmd ?17:50
kyle_Austinusr13: is there a way to display the WHOLE image and not just the first page.17:50
theadminuser3: Using any browser, infact17:51
reisiotheadmin: it can, with -%M17:51
reisionot that it matters17:51
usr13reisio: What?17:51
reisioa directory is just as good as a file :)17:51
reisiousr13: httrack with -%M option17:51
user3theadmin: reisio: thank you guys17:51
theadminreisio: Does that create an mht file then?17:51
sacarlsonkyle_Austin: many of my documents I just post in google drive are auto converted to view as an option17:51
reisiotheadmin: yeah17:51
MralexxxWin 717:51
user3sudo aptitude install httrack17:51
reisiouser3: probably17:51
theadminreisio: Funny, because I have no idea how to open those on Linux, heh17:51
mindless_chaosif you have a floppy drive you can always download a windows 98 boot disk from bootdisk.com and make light work of it17:51
mindless_chaosOkay hold on... I have to remember..17:51
user3reisio: wrong window :P17:52
reisiotheadmin: mmmmmmm, I know there's an extension for all the browsers17:52
reisio'mozilla archive format' is one, IIRC17:52
reisioit's probably just a ZIP of a dir, though17:52
usr13kyle_Austin: You would need to convert the mulit-page document into a single image.  You can do that with gimp.  And it would probably be best to just export to jpg17:52
reisioI would just use httrack as normal and have a dir17:52
kyle_Austinusr13: thank you I will try that17:52
MralexxxDont mind me my phone loses wifi every few min...17:52
reisiobut you could tar it up and use archivemount to read it as a file17:52
usr13reisio: Sorry, I don't know about httrack17:53
usr13reisio: Oh, httrack.com  I see.  Thank you.17:54
MralexxxI tried but wont work17:54
MralexxxSays my windows is different version17:54
mindless_chaosinstead of letting windows fix it, go into console17:54

bubbasaureswe6jbo, What CD?19:17
bubbasauresnever seen a cd on a ppa can we see yours we6jbo19:18
we6jboWhat I'm thinking is this. The user will install my CD into their computer. A popup or something will come up asking the user if they want to install my program from my PPA. If they say yes then they'll agree to the terms, enter their info and the program will download the PPA and install it for them. That way I can keep updating the program but they just need to install the CD once19:19

Mralexxxwafflej0ock any idea what should i pick ?19:35
wafflej0ckMralexxx: would have to search around to see what the proper procedure is for 14.04 with the ATI proprietary drivers, not sure19:35
wafflej0ckMralexxx: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Catalyst-Linux-Installer-Notes.aspx19:36
MralexxxMeh going to install generate distro.. its recommended19:36
OerHeksi would use the ati driver from aditional driver menu, so you get updates and no issue with new kernels19:36
wafflej0ckyeah honestly if you're going with proprietary stuff you just have to rely on their support and whatever they provide since no one else can actually ever look at the source to see if there are actually problems19:36

ubottuLTS means Long Term Support.

daftykinschristian_: ok, check your disk connections (reseat them at both ends - that means pull it out and plug it back in again firmly) then power on again19:52
Lunariodoes anybody know if it is possible with some tool on ubuntu (or linux in general) to convert a scanned page into text which can be edited?19:52
wafflej0ckMrAlex: yeah well using the Additional Drivers panel makes it even easier (at least with Nvidia stuff) but I haven't tried Manjaro, if I try Arch I'll probably go pure Arch instead just to get the experience19:52
daftykinsLunario: sounds like you want to look into some OCR software19:52
MrAlexwafflej0ck have any idea the grub loader doesn't even display anything just purple border around and then boots up ubuntu always19:52
Lunariodaftykins: never heard of that before, googling it... :) thx19:53
MrAlexwafflej0ck manjaro kde is reaaaaaaaly awesome looking and cool system but not for linux beginners19:53
wafflej0ckMrAlex: you can modify your Grub config to reduce the TIMEOUT to 0 and skip showing it by default if that's what you mean?19:53
YamakasYhas anyone an idea what can cause 404 errors on a internal mirror with apache when doing an apt-get update ? The paths are there but I cannot visit them with my browser too19:53

If there is a way to test the touchpad to see if it is a hardware or software issue, please let me know! (Also, booted into Windows 7 and was having the same issu20:39

g4vr0cheFleetflame, MemTest is used for finding bad RAM modules. You want to choose "Ubuntu" and continue21:15
Fleetflameg4vr0che: that's what I did, but I wonder if those other options came up because that's what the update was working on when the computer crashed?21:16
wafflej0ckFleetflame: those are just the defaults in the grub menu21:16
FleetflameI've never booted with GRUB before, I don't have another boot partition on this computer21:16
FleetflameUbuntu usually just boots by itself21:16
wafflej0ckFleetflame: if you just had one OS installed when grub is configured to just skip showing itself21:16
yottabitthis has been one annoying bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/130699121:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1306991 in python-pip (Debian) "pip stops with ImportError for request-Modul" [Unknown,New]21:17
wafflej0ckFleetflame: it may be something in the installation process didn't run update-grub after changing things or was in a half done state of some sort21:17
Fleetflameoh21:17
FleetflameThat would make it default to giving the options?21:17
FleetflameOr does it come up like Windows does with "safe mode" options etc if it didn't shut down correctly?21:17
wafflej0ckFleetflame: well something left the Grub configuration with a timeout period set to show the screen which would show you those default options21:17
wafflej0ckFleetflame: I don't think it typically offers these on a bad shutdown but that could be the case21:18
Fleetflameok21:18
wafflej0ckFleetflame: give another clean reboot to see21:18
FleetflameOK, I will do21:18
FleetflameI'll let you know21:18
wafflej0ckcool thx21:18
Monitolisi have read that if i set on boot pciehp force=0 could it work? i have to modprobe after?21:19

goosfrabahi guys, im currently running win8.1 and im so sick of it, wanna go ubuntu full time. im studying sql server 2012 at the university atm so i cant go ubuntu now, but next class is ASP.NET, is ubuntu good for .NET development these days? both asp and c#21:22
Fuchsgoosfraba: you can do some of it with mono and tools like monodevelop, but it will be a lot less fun than with Visual Studio21:23
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: I don't think it's really great for any MS development to be honest, Visual Studio is a good tool but not made for Linux21:23
Fuchsgoosfraba: thus I'd at least keep a windows VM21:23
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: take some courses with Java, or Python, or any web language and you'll be in good shape in Ubuntu21:23
wafflej0ckor C or C++21:24
goosfrabaalready done with java, asp.net is the last programming course this year :P21:24
Fuchsgoosfraba: use Windows for that one21:24
goosfrabaok, im gonna trust you :)21:24
goosfrabathanks21:24
goosfrabahm maybe i just dualboot21:25
goosfrabagot a extern 1tb i could install ubuntu on i guess21:25
dinosaur_I'm trying to set up a network with two computers and the possibility to send mails between them. In exim configuration I chose an internet site in both the computers. Now, I'm able to send computers to local users, but when  I want to send them from one computer to another one, then it's what I got in logs:21:25
dinosaur_all relevant MX records point to non-existent hosts21:25
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: yeah personally I run Ubuntu Gnome edition with Windows in virtual box on an external drive21:26
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: for the times I need Creative Suite or other bits21:26
dinosaur_what should I do to be able to send mails from one machine to the second one?21:26
andreas_if you want to make web-apps look at PHP/JavaScript+jquery  + HTML/CSS goosfraba, it's what I'm learning now. I'm making apps I never thought I'd be able to make21:26
goosfrabawafflej0ck: how does that work out for you? never done anything virtual21:26
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: pretty darn well, no 3D support in the virtualbox really but I just use it for Photoshop mostly and it works fine for that21:26
goosfrabaandreas_: already done with JS/jQuery/HTML5/CSS aswell, only asp left :p21:27
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: 3D support works on my desktop with an nvidia card in VB actually too so depends on the host machine hardware to some degree, but it works pretty well21:27
dinosaur_Aha, I installed bind server on the second machine and configured the first machine to use the second machine name server. I checked that it's really the case.21:27
goosfrabawafflej0ck: sweet, maybe thats an alternative for me aswell21:27
andreas_but not the PHP! bt if you are done with JS+jQuery you can already make amazing things21:27
dinosaur_Still , I can't send mails from the first computer to the second one.21:27
goosfrabaandreas_: gotta be honest with you, i hate webdev but all those classes are included in the program im currently in :p21:28
goosfrabajava was the funniest class so far imo21:28
PhirePhlydinosaur_: What MTA are you using on both systems? Postfix?21:28
dinosaur_PhirePhly: exim21:28
goosfrabaand unfortunately we dont have any php class at my uni21:28
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: Ruby or Node or Python are probably more valuable skills, I do PHP dev and AngularJS mostly21:29
reisiogoosfraba: sounds fortunate to me21:29
PhirePhlydinosaur_: ah. I keep meaning to learn exim, but then remember how easy postfix is and install it21:29
reisiophp is awful21:29
g4vr0chephp>regex21:29
wafflej0ckPHP with Eloquent ORM and Slim for routing is pretty easy to use honestly21:29
wafflej0ckbut there's lots of garbage written with PHP too21:29
goosfrabareisio: haha ok21:29
goosfrabaive done some python aswell, but when i switch to *nix i wanna learn bash21:30
PhirePhlydinosaur_: I'd expect that by default your MTA is only listening on the local interface. You probably need to tell it to listen on your Ethernet interface and accept mail for whatever domain you're trying to send at it21:31
andreas_PHP is more like a programming language then the rest, well ...I feel so21:32
goosfrabais there any website where i can see how much of the hardware in my ultrabook (asus zenbook ux32ln) that's supported by ubuntu?21:32
wafflej0ckgoosfraba: nice breakdown of general query stats using different web tech http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/21:32
dinosaur_PhirePhly: no, no, I set up this properly - checked with telnet.21:33
wafflej0ckandreas_: I like that the C underlying the code is typically simple and really with some of these libraries I actually write very little PHP just for doing the auth parts and then most of it is handled by ORM/ActiveRecord provided by Eloquent21:33
PhirePhlydinosaur_: Does sending an email to a username@host1 from host2 work? Then it's just an MX DNS problem21:34
wafflej0ckalright sorry drifted way off topic21:34
goosfrabaany1 playing cs1.6 in ubuntu? :P works good?21:35
andreas_goosfraba, https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=350721:36
andreas_it is rated platinum, so it should run without problems21:36
goosfrabaandreas_: do you still have to go through wine? steam is supported in linux nowdays isnt it?21:36
justdaveI'm running Ubuntu 14.10 inside a VMWare Fusion VM, which has the "pass power status to vm" checkmarked in the config.  Ubuntu is still showing 100% battery and fully charged, even though I'm on battery power.  Anyone know how to fix?21:37
andreas_if it has been ported to linux you can steam it21:37
andreas_donno if it has21:37
goosfrabaok well, gonna check it out21:37
andreas_oh yeah it has come out21:37
justdaveThe power status does show up correctly in a Windows VM, so I'm guessing Ubuntu is missing a driver or something?  Used to work on an older Ubuntu version.21:37
goosfrabamy usb is ready now tho so im gonna install ubuntu on my extern drive, thanks for all your input fellas21:38

aryHi. I have a PCI snd card CMI8738. Ubuntu install alsa and pulseaudio has snd servers. Pulseaudio was keeping volume too low. So I remove it and let alsa has default. But after that, CMI8738 was not my default snd card and the volume control on the gnome panel was gone. How do I change CMI8738 to default and how i put colume control back on the superior panel?21:45
LinxCatPhirePhly: thats seem like it displays the traceroute only21:46
PhirePhlyLinxCat: as opposed to what?21:46
LinxCatPhire: what? i am looking for monitoring tool which can monitor a network interface in real time21:47
bynarieary, just reinstall the volume indicator21:47
PhirePhlyLinxCat: monitor what about it?21:47
LinxCatsource/target, port, etc etc21:47

MralexxxOk not using ubuntu few months i am using linux few month ubuntu few days but its mostly the same22:04
kSudo89I've diagnosed a Kernel problem. Kernel 3.16.0-26 contains a bug preventing login and creates black/blank screen. Kernel linux-image-3.18.0-*_amd64 solves the problem. Should I still bisect the kernel?22:05
MralexxxDo you have any idea does speak recognition exsists for linux ?22:05
reisioMralexxx: cmu sphinx22:06
MrAlexYReisio thanks22:07
solsTiCekSudo89: post maximum info in a bug report on launchpad. unless there is already one22:09
aryhow is the ubuntu package that put all things back to their default place?22:09
k1lary: there is none22:09
reisioary: things like what?22:10
aryk1l after i use this command on terminal a lot of thing is missing: sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio*22:10
k1lary: why did you remove pulseaudio22:11
aryreisio, things like sound configurations22:11
kSudo89The last time I had the same exact problem and resulted in a kernel bisection. What's different in this case is, unlike last time, the mainline kernel actually doesn't reproduce this bug and funny enough fixes a completely different unrelated bug as well.22:11
aryk1l because pulse audio was keeping my snd volume to low22:11
reisioary: user customization of configurations are basically all in ~/.foo directories, or ~/.config/foo22:11
aryreisio, I mean the GTK config interface man...22:12
k1lary: pulseaudio is the soundserver that runs all the sound stuff for desktops. removing that is a huge impact22:12
reisioary: irrelevant22:12
aryk1l, there is a fix?22:13
zteam_Is there anyone familiar with  GNU ddrescue here?22:13
aryreisio, I am a newbe mate, to me is very relevant. On that screen i could change my cards22:13
aryreisio, i have 2 snd cards22:14
reisiowhatever you're talking about that's changed is irrelevant22:14
reisiowhat I told you applies regardless22:14
k1lary: why would a newbie remove one big part of a system?22:14
k1lary: its like you took out just the whole roor from a car. and now wonder its all wobbely and colapses.22:15
k1l*roof22:15
aryk1l, because my sound was too low, and o read somewhere that alsa was better.22:15
k1lary: reinstall pulseaudio22:15
kSudo89I guess what I'm saying is if the mainline kernel doesn't reproduce the bug and theres no bug report about current bug should I just move along22:16
k1lary: that is just plain idiotic. alsa is even more desaster.22:16
aryk1l, i already did that22:16
queykil: all it's works thx22:16

k1lGuest40704: put it into fstab to be autoloaded22:19
aryk1l, like I said. I already reinstal pulse audio, but some things are missing22:19
k1lwhat is missing?22:19
zteam_k1l, yeah probably, I never uninstalled it myself, but it wasn't that extra-ordinary then I googled my pulseaudio issues before, but that was some versions ago indeed22:19
k1lary: reinstall "ubuntu-desktop" if you use the standard ubuntu desktop22:19
kSudo89Forget it I'll just abandon 3.16 kernel altogether.22:20

Why this happen and how did I fix it. I am pretty shure there is a driver config. I just don't know where. Do you need to know how is my sound card? The card is a CMI8738/CMI8768 with 4 channels.

daftykinsneosisani: you don't make much sense.22:56
zteam_daftykins, because ddrescue, is much smarter than that, it focus on grabbing data from the good sectors first and then take the bad ones, wheras, dd would choose this pretty random and then risk to damaged the disc harder22:56
daftykinszteam_: i know how it works.22:57
zteam_daftykins, But that's not what I'm asking about, what I want to know if is would be normal in a regular dd case for example, to be viewable before the cloning is complet22:58
zteam_daftykins, you asked, I answered :-)22:58
k1ldeemo: if its done try to install xchat again. if it says package foo cant be installed try to install that and see what it says22:59
daftykinszteam_: no... i didn't ask22:59
we6jboHi22:59
joshumaxAnyone have any ideas on how to solve my question?22:59
we6jboI wrote a program in Java. Is there an easy way to package it and put it on a PPA?22:59
joshumax!ubottu Packaging23:00
zteam_daftykins,, you asked why I did choose ddrescue, before dd..... :)23:00
daftykinsjoshumax: version?23:00
daftykinszteam_: no i referred to rsync, nothing to do with dd.23:00
joshumaxdaftykins: trunk, I'll find the exact version though23:00
daftykinsjoshumax: "cat /etc/issue" or "lsb_release -a"23:01
deemoI went via software centre instead of terminal and it said ''The installation or removal of a software package failed.'' k1l23:01
k1ldeemo: software center doesnt help us23:01
zteam_daftykins, ahh okey, sorry then, there is an optin called sync with dd to, so I thought you were refering to that one :-)23:01
joshumaxdaftykins: That's a rather long story...you see, right now I'm using Arch23:01
k1lplease use apt-get so we can see the errors in a pastebin23:01
deemoit actually install xchat k1l23:02
deemosurprised23:02
daftykinsjoshumax: no, it's a number :) "xx.xx" typically.23:02
zteam_daftykins, Anyway, do you think this would be normal, http://postimg.org/image/la3a9zayj/a17cc285/23:02
joshumaxdaftykins: Arch is rolling release so we don't have a version number, and I'm using unity 7.3.1ish23:02
daftykinsjoshumax: so you're using ubuntu packages atop arch...23:03
zteam_daftykins, the commandline was sudo ddrescue --force -r3 /dev/sde /dev/sdc /home/zteam/logfile23:03
joshumaxdaftykins: No, I'm using unity atop arch, compiled from source23:03

joel__I have a 3 partitions, swap, boot (os and apps) and third where I want to keep all my data files. How do I move my "Home" folder to the third partition so if I want to reinstall Ubuntu/upgrade all my data stays safe?23:10
k1lwarhorse: i think that is due to your massive ppas and the dream-studio unofficial spinoff you use.23:10
k1lwarhorse: better to see the dreamstudio support if the know that23:11
Bashing-omjoel__: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving .23:13

joel__Bashing-om: Thank you23:15
warhorsethanks for the time ... I hope I figure something out of reinstall if I have to k1l23:15
k1lwarhorse: we cant help you since we dont know what is important for their stuff to work.23:15

Ben64you shouldn't be using sudo su23:36
k1lsince 12.04 its sudo group instead of admin. maybe the new settings rely on that group now23:36

mr_snowf1akehey guys, i'm on an old old machine running Ubuntu 10.10. Are the software repositories for this version no longer around? I'm getting lots of errors that look like this: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/octave3.2/octave3.2-common_3.2.4-6ubuntu1_all.deb  404  Not Found23:42

bubbasaures!10.1023:43
ubottuUbuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) was the thirteenth release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 10th, 2012, see http://ubottu.com/y/maverick for details.23:43
k1lmr_snowf1ake: you are very very very outdated. since you need to upgrade to 11.04 then to 11.10 then to 12.04 i suggest you make  a clean reinstall with a supportde release23:43
bubbasauresmr_snowf1ake, Thought it said on the message eol23:44
Guest73621Hello23:44
k1lmr_snowf1ake: you system got heavy security issues and they will not be fixed. so upgrade (or better reinstall) asap23:44
mr_snowf1akebubbasaures: i know it's very old and outdated. i'm just stuck with this machine for a few days, and i don't want to deal with that. i figure that means that it is in fact the case that some of the repositories no longer exist?23:44
bubbasauresmr_snowf1ake, In the archives yes, not the regular repos.23:45
mr_snowf1akek1l: i know. i wasn't asking about whether i should be upgrading or not. i know i shouldn't be running a machine with software this old.23:45
mr_snowf1akebubbasaures: okay, so that means if i change around the links i should be able to get it to work?23:45
Guest73621What is this place? interesting23:45
mr_snowf1akeGuest73621: this is IRC. #ubuntu@freenode. First time using IRC I take it?23:46

bubbasauresmr_snowf1ake, What is your definition of work, in general eol is past support here.23:46
Ben64mr_snowf1ake: you'd be better off running a 14.04 or 14.10 livecd for a couple days than a release that hasn't been updated in over 2 years23:46
mr_snowf1akeBen64: actually, that might be a good idea23:46
jrolland-ubuntuk1l: That did it; thanks so much :)23:47
k1ljrolland-ubuntu: np23:47
mr_snowf1akethis machine only has 512mb ram though... i imagine a livecd (especially a modern one) won't be running very smoothly...23:47
Guest73621mr_snowflake: Ah ok. Yes Indeed. Still fairly new to linux as well heheh23:47
mr_snowf1akeGuest73621: cool :) welcome to the crowd :D23:47
Guest73621mrsnowflake: Thank you very much x). Proud to be a linuxer haha23:48
mr_snowf1akeGuest73621: excellent :)23:48
Guest73621I'll see you all around I'm gonna hit the road. ^^23:48
mr_snowf1aketake care23:49
mr_snowf1akeumm... any recommendations for distros for an old antiquated machine? maybe lubuntu is the way to go?23:49
k1lmr_snowf1ake: yes lubuntu is intended for old and slow machines23:49
mr_snowf1akeor actually since this machine probably won't be upgraded like ever again, i should go with straight debian23:49
mr_snowf1akek1l: how does the latest release of debian do with old and slow machines?23:50
k1lmr_snowf1ake: i dont know if dabian offers a iso for older machines23:50
k1l*debian23:50
mr_snowf1akehmm23:51
k1lyou can ask in #debian23:51
mr_snowf1akeyeah23:51
mr_snowf1akei guess i should23:51
mr_snowf1akethanks for the help guys23:51
