[00:02] Hola [00:03] Hi all! After upgrading to 14.04 I am having problems with OpenGL soft, it just renders black screen instead of images. Worked on Ubuntu 12 [00:03] I use nvidia card and nouveau driver [00:03] hmmmm :/ [00:03] More details here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/554090/opengl-does-not-work-properly-on-ubuntu-14-04-with-mesa-10-1-3 [00:05] Please just advise where to start my search. I know many libraries changed: libglew, freeglut, etc. Maybe the context does not initialize properly? [00:07] can anyone help? I don't know what to try anymore. [00:08] petrenuk, What have you tried? [00:09] Not much because I am new to this stuff. I tried to change GLX_CONTEXT_VERSION from 3.3 to 3.1 or 3.0 but this does not help [00:10] I Shortstraw8, I believe the problem maybe not with driver itself, because other 3D software seems to work nicely [00:10] I Shortstraw8, e.g. the Meshlab works without issues [00:11] I Shortstraw8, maybe there's a way to enable some additional logging? === doebama is now known as william_doe [00:15] petrenuk, You may have more info than I do, I just had an issue with mine and had to install the nvidia instead of nouveau drivers. But mine was everything not working. Sorry cant help much with that. [00:16] Shortstraw8, np, thanks for trying. Strange problem... === XeBlackWater is now known as zz_XeBlackWater [00:18] Shortstraw8: Consider from the liveDVD -> GParted, and re-format that drive and set up the partitions you want from GParted. [00:21] Bashing-om, I figured, just seeing if I was missing something in disk utility. Do really do too much so never needed GParted. Thanks. [00:23] Shortstraw8: My best advise (GParted) .. Graphical application ... I normally use the terminal, good tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive . [00:23] petrenuk, Have you tried the nvidia drivers? I'm seeing some issues with rendering being fixed using 331.38 instead, which is what I did. The few articles I have scanned say it works better with OpenGl. Just an option maybe. [00:25] hey whats the name of that cpu temp sensor package? [00:25] Shortstraw8, I did not try them. I need this soft to work on machines with all types of graphic cards, so I want to test it with mesa [00:25] i think im getting too hot when i watch youtube [00:25] Shortstraw8, But I am planning to try nvidia drivers to understand at least the source of the problem [00:26] petrenuk i have so much trouble with nvidia drivers lately, because legacy card [00:26] Shortstraw8, whether it is related to driver or not. Do you know how to replace mesa drivers with nvidia ones in 14.04? [00:26] !sensors | x2 [00:26] x2: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. [00:26] ty [00:27] X2: lm-sensors is one . [00:27] Happy Thanksgiving #ubuntu !!!!! [00:28] Happy Thanksgiving day [00:28] X2, the truth is that I see such problems on many machines: on Amazon instance with GPU and on VM without GPU at all (with mesa software emulation). So I hope these problems are related to context creation, or GLX usage or whatever, not to drivers === WENIS is now known as MM[TCU] [00:31] petrenuk, I see, sorry cant be of more help. Not specifically, maybe see if there is an askubuntu forum topic already if you have not yet done so. [00:33] Shortstraw8, I tried but I know so liitle about the problem. I'll try to search again after some research [00:33] Bashing-om, Thanks for the link I think I will practice that on one of my junk drives, my win is my gaming drive and I don't want to screw it up. Thanks again. [00:35] Shortstraw8: Good deal .. For sure though for knowing grahically what you are doing, there is none better than GParted. [00:36] Bashing-om, Isnt it just sudo apt-get install gparted? [00:36] Can a superuser still access the files of other users on the system if their home folders are encrypted? [00:36] e.g. could you change a user's password and that way access their data? [00:37] Bashing-om, never mined spelled it wrong. [00:37] Shortstraw8: One may -- it is installed by default on the desktop liveDVD .. remember, ( why you use it in the liveDVD ) can not work on drives while the fils system(s) is mounted . [00:37] yes ... akurilin [00:38] root user can do anything [00:39] leogtzr: so there's no way of protecting a user's data from the superuser through OS means, unless that users encrypts her files with some other means? [00:39] that's correct ... [00:41] encfs ... [00:41] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/EncFS [00:45] leogtzr: the use case I'm trying to set up is having multiple users on the same machine who are all superusers, but still preventing them from seeing each other's home folders. e.g. say they want to set up LastPass on their Firefox browsers, if they were to change one another's password they could log in and access that data [00:46] encfs could work, but admittedly you'd have to time enabling it just right so that all of the different applications place their state correctly in the right place [00:47] you could use groups ... [00:47] how to remotely connect to ubuntu 14.04 from windows 7 [00:47] you should have only a root account ... === frye is now known as Guest4196 [00:48] leogtzr: sure, one root, but let's say all the users need sudo permissions [00:48] say they're all Ops staff [00:48] sudo permissions for what? ... [00:48] you should give them permissions to modify only a few things ... [00:48] creating more users, installing new shared apps etc [00:49] This assumes a single super-admin role, I'm trying to see if it's possible to avoid that [00:50] and what about create a group with special permissions ? ... [00:50] like create other accounts, access to some folders, create accounts and stuff like that? [00:50] yeah perhaps that's the way to go [00:50] akurilin: unless you have an encrypted directory being mounted each time a user logs in, i dont know if theres any real way to do it [00:51] akurilin: but if you are that paranoid, just give them all individual VM's [00:52] ok [00:52] Makes sense, thx [00:53] also, maybe check out some of the hardning and security standards [00:53] like, maybe an audit trail of access will do instead of trying to prevent it [00:54] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/527876/how-to-restrict-a-linux-user-to-be-only-able-to-read-home-user-and-nothing-else [00:54] akurilin: i worked in operations in an enviroment where any time we su'd to root we had to have another staff member monitor what commands were being run as root, etc [00:55] leogtzr: thats easy - now do it for root, who by definition has access to everything [00:56] akurilin: and the system logs were auditied, daily in match mode and in real time, as were all config files, etc. [00:56] remote logging, log monitoring, configuration file integrity monitoring [00:56] nice! :O [00:57] pci-dss is a money grubbing pain in the ass [00:58] Hey, where is the swap partition configured? [00:58] and what about a restricted shell? [00:58] I have Lubuntu 13.10 on my laptop, I know I have a swap partition enabled and working, but I can't find the swap line at /etc/fstab. Where else can it be configured? [00:58] CrazyTB: it's mounted in /etc/fstab - is that what you mean? [00:58] CrazyTB: /etc/fstab [00:59] limit a user commands and force them to use a restricted shell [00:59] CrazyTB: cat /proc/swaps [00:59] CrazyTB: Rephrase the question; There is no file system imposed on swap, and not much you can "configure" . [01:00] orlock: hmm... it shows 4 /dev/zram devices === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [01:01] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zswap === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [01:08] .... [01:13] Can I use DD to copy a complete harddisk and then later on mount the individual partitions? Can I somehow tell the kernel that file X is not just a file, treat it like a harddrive with partitions? [01:14] Are you wanting to mount the file or convert it back to a regular filesystem first? [01:15] blubberbop: -o loop option for mount lets you mount a file [01:15] But he wants multiple partitions in that. [01:15] blubberbop: http://askubuntu.com/questions/69363/mount-single-partition-from-image-of-entire-disk-device [01:15] orlock: but how would I mount a file containing the dd image from a harddrive? It has no filesystem by itself, it has partitions that the kernel then should show.. [01:16] orlock: that looks pretty! thanks! [01:16] blubberbop: have you made the image yet? [01:17] orlock: Thanks! [01:17] blubberbop: set the blocksize (bs) when making the image, it just speeds it up drastically [01:19] orlock: I already made the image yeah, it was 400GB and I used bs=64K which indeed made it quite a bit faster [01:19] thanks though for the tip! [01:19] blubberbop: i remember - going on 20 years ago - cloning some.. they might have been 8 gig drives - i didnt know about that [01:19] blubberbop: it took about 4 hours each! [01:20] orlock: This one took also about... 4-5 hours, it was over USB2, not the fastest thing, but the best I had at hand [01:20] oh usb [01:20] damn [01:20] pain [01:20] :) [01:22] I don't understand why Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is supported for 5 years but Xubuntu 14.04 LTS is only supported for 3 years. What happens to Xubuntu after the 3 years of support? [01:22] orlock: Works like a charm, thanks! [01:23] augustN: no more support, no more updates [01:23] * orlock wonders why the hell his xterms keep locking up [01:25] blubberbop: but it's still basically the same distro as Ubuntu 14.04 right? but it wouldn't be supported anymore? === zz_XeBlackWater is now known as XeBlackWater [01:27] augustN: well, AFAIK Xubuntu uses only a different window manager, not? XFCE IIRC? So I support if Ubuntu makes updates to packages that are not specific to XFCE, you would get them, but I don;t know if these packages would be ported to the Xubuntu repos.. [01:27] augustN: mmmm [01:28] augustN: Just checked my /etc/apt/sources.list file, and its just the ubuntu repo.. So I'm sure you should at least get the updates from there [01:28] augustN: So I suppose (and I'm really not sure here!) that you would simply no longer get the XFCE specific updates.. [01:29] blubberbop: oh. okay. i hope that's the case. I'm planning on switching to xubuntu later. compiz/unity isn't working well with my nvidia card [01:29] Does anybody else often experience issues with continuous disconnecting from Wifi APs with laptops on both precise and trusty? [01:29] augustN: *cough* kubuntu *cough* [01:30] I never figured out if there's something specific the AP needs to configure to facilitate linux wifi [01:30] never have issues with wifi when it comes to mbp / osx [01:30] akurilin2: AFAIK, there is no such thing as a specific linux setting.. it should just work.. [01:30] akurilin2: Probably a wife driver issue [01:30] hi, user1 is a member of developer group and created a private git repo and files has user1:developer, me user2 is a member of developer group too (shown in ), Im still having not enough permission in /objects folder, any advise? [01:30] akurilin2: i do on 14.04 [01:31] Oh damn, freud would have had some fun with that one LOL [01:31] blubberbop: I've been told before "We have a special linux wifi AP" [01:31] not sure what's up with that [01:31] akurilin2: NetGear, Inc. WN111(v2) RangeMax Next Wireless [Atheros AR9170+AR9101] [01:32] blubberbop: i don't like kde. lol [01:32] akurilin2: Never heard of an AP specially for Linux.. I do know though that WiFi under linux can be quite problematic still since drivers are still not as good as they could / should be [01:32] akurilin2: USB adaptor? [01:33] not a usb card, it's internal, let me see what model it is [01:33] Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev bb) [01:34] odd [01:34] intels drivers are normally pretty good [01:34] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2250244 === Guest45266 is now known as zsoc [01:37] yeah apparently that card is a troublemaker for a lot of people [01:37] at least it works on this kernel without any mods [01:37] i hate wireless [01:37] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1354975 [01:37] Launchpad bug 1354975 in Unity Linux "iwlwifi Intel 7260 Wifi disconnects" [Undecided,New] [01:38] orlock: gosh yes [01:39] guys, have you tried to remove unused kernel modules? [01:40] ? .... [01:40] leonidas__: you mean or general, or for some specific reason? [01:41] general, just to save memory ... [01:42] I don't have any problem or issue, I just want to know if I could remove some specific module to reclaim some memory [01:43] leonidas__: What release ? the method varies . Old kernels only take up disk space ( and should be removed if there is no use for them ) .

[01:48] @orlock, no, I have a very decent machine, I asked because I just read this from the LPIC certification book: [01:48] Sometimes, though, you may [01:48] want to remove a loaded module. Reasons include reclaiming that tiny amount of memory, [01:48] unloading an old module so you can load an updated replacement module, and removing a [01:48] module that you suspect is unreliable.

[01:50] leonidas__: and maybe only have modules for drivers that required specific flags at load time [01:50] yes, I will do some tests removing the beep pcspeaker ... [01:50] ohhhh, didn't know that :O [01:50] leonidas__: but i havent thought about doing that sort of thing for over 15 years === haskell is now known as Guest44612 === Ankoran is now known as ZerOlegend-M [01:57] I'm trying to start an ssh server on my ubuntu desktop so I can ssh on to it. [01:57] I used: sudo apt-get install openssh-server [01:57] how do I create a username and password so someone can ssh into my machine? [01:57] None of the tutorials really mention this [01:58] Guest44612: just add a new user [01:58] add a new user and try to ssh -vvv newuser@nameOfYourServer [01:58] Guest44612: settings -> user accounts (under system) [01:59] orlock, ahh ok so can I use the main user's account to ssh? [01:59] like the account I am on now? [01:59] yes [01:59] Guest44612: any account should work [01:59] yup [01:59] ahhh, that makes sense, I thought I had to create user profiles or something hehe [01:59] yes make sure you have well configured your keys [02:00] strong password? [02:00] yeah [02:01] otherwise china and russia will 0wn your box [02:01] hahaha [02:01] Hello. Can anyone comment on MTP / PTP support in 14.04? Mom's getting a Moto G and she's ~5,000 km away and running 10.04, so I'm trying to plan some upgrade path that will not fail. [02:02] orlock, that's scary changing my password to like 10 characters now [02:03] Guest44612: and open ssh servers on the internet get hammered pretty much non stop [02:04] w00dog: haha, delaying a while on that one. why not ship a bootable flash drive and get a demo done prior? [02:05] orlock, I just need to have a ssh server on temporarily, like 1/2 hr (trying to install nvidia drivers which require x-server to be off, which kills my screen), I should be safe if it's just 1/2 hr right? [02:05] and whoever is going to help you can't tell you to write down the commands? ;) [02:05] Guest44612: also you shouldn't be installing non-packaged nvidia drivers. [02:06] daftykins: walking her through a BIOS tweak would be painful for both of us. And her PC is so ancient that it may not support USB booting. Hence plan to do-release-upgrade with brother on-hand for emergencies. OpenVPN gives me full access currently to her PC via SSH & VNC [02:06] Guest44612: yeah it will be fine - they will hammer but wont get in [02:06] Guest44612: unless you set the password to "root" or "password" [02:06] w00dog: probably wouldn't be wise to run 14.04 then - what graphics? [02:07] daftykins, I downloaded a .run file from nvidia which requires x-server to be off (the screen stuff) [02:07] Guest44612: i know - and you aren't supposed to install nvidia drivers from manual downloads. [02:07] But first, curious if anyone has experience with MTP on 14.04? Had her on XFCE for a bit. Thinking Mint + Mate too... [02:07] xubuntu is definitely ace [02:07] daftykins, is there an alternative? [02:08] orlock, haha I'm past that level of noob at least [02:08] Guest44612: yes, packaged drivers. is this ubuntu 14.04? [02:08] daftykins, yes sir [02:08] hello everyone [02:09] Guest44612: so click the settings 'cog' type icon on the launcher on the left, go to software and sources, then the additional hardware/drivers tab at the end [02:09] could anyone help me in creating a startup script? [02:09] its seems the permissions are jacked up, and the main app will only run if i'm currently inside the working directory [02:10] daftykins, I had tried that previously but it says "No additional drivers available" [02:10] Do I need to add sources or something? [02:10] Guest44612: what's your card? [02:10] no [02:11] nvidia gtx 750 ti === O00O is now known as Z0Z [02:11] daftykins, they have a driver for it on the nvidia site [02:11] !info nvidia-331 trusty [02:11] :-( [02:11] nvidia-331 (source: nvidia-graphics-drivers-331): NVIDIA binary driver - version 331.38. In component restricted, is optional.

[02:12] Guest44612: have a bad rap with the russians eh? [02:13] atlas-hive, nah haha I was trying to start an ssh-server to install nvidia drivers (it was mentioned here russians would take over my computer if I had a short password) [02:13] Guest44612: 750 ti ; see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2252908 >> Simple steps to install GeForce GTX 750Ti on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 .

[02:15] i have a quick question, hopefully someone out there will know...i've been using ubuntu now for years and i have no idea what i did. [02:15] somehow the ctrl key has been mapped to favorites === XeBlackWater is now known as zz_XeBlackWater [02:15] so in firefox whenever i hit ctrl it opens the bookmarks or in a file browser it open the favorites [02:16] Bashing-om, thanks for the link, it seems more complicated than, sudo apt-get install nvidia-331, is the method in the link better? [02:16] i know how to map keys and i don't see this mapping [02:17] Guest44612: Nope, no easy way yet for that card .. ( soon as our developers catch up, there will be ) . [02:17] Bashing-om, ok thanks I will try those steps [02:18] Bashing-om: oh is it not supported in the 331? [02:18] how tedious [02:18] Ok my screen tweeked what was that? [02:18] daftykins: So far as I know needs version 334.xx or later, and it's not in the Trusty repo . [02:19] ah, i only read about the 331 not supporting the 8xxM's or something, *shrug* [02:19] that explains the lack of offering from additional drivers. [02:20] I've tried to run the full path, however the startup script in that containing folder will run, but tom cat will not, if running from inside the folder (tomcat is a sub) it starts fine, also if I run under sudo it wont even find the folder [02:20] daftykins: Yepper, we play catch up with new hardware ,, and Nvidia is not to fast to relaese/help us with the code . [02:21] i think that's more speed of packagers, not nvidia support [02:21] Bravo12, are you getting an error? [02:22] daftykins: Yeah then too, Nvidia has been pretty good to us lately . [02:22] need a new laptop and want to run ubuntu - would prefer lenovo but dislike the pad/buttons on the new models.. what is the next best thing? [02:23] platz: sony vaio [02:23] -- leonidas : when running from the main user screen and tryping the command in I get a catalina home path chmod: can not access '././tomcat/bin*.sh' [02:23] atlas-hive: thanks I'll check them out [02:23] platz: they are great computers but a bit of a penny per price [02:23] now if I "cd" into the folder that starts all of it, everything runs fine [02:24] platz: i have an old z series which they dont make anymore but it rocks and the battery power is awesome for low to mid grade work [02:24] its currenty stored in a folder residing on the desktop [02:24] what would be best program/command to compare large binary files? I just want a "they are identical" or "they differ" answer, not what bytes that differ. [02:24] (if I don't want to create and compare checksums) [02:24] entenienne: md5 them. [02:24] oh. [02:25] and why's that such a big deal? [02:25] atlas-hive: sadly it seems the older stuff seems nicer to me, if only a bit bulkier [02:26] acer s7 are pretty good too. === locke2002 is now known as Guest61781 [02:26] daftykins: well, I was thinking about something like diff, but that reads in both files into memory (some hundred MB's) and compares them. diff seems to read just 4KB of each file at a time - and since both files are on same harddisk that would lead thousand read-head moves per file-pair [02:26] any ideas leo? [02:27] platz: ive always been a acer fan... but sony is slowly winning me over, even though they are hemorrhaging money but the minute === kampiyo is now known as sbfn9388 [02:27] entenienne: you've got to read the files somehow. what's wrong with generating and dumping hashes? [02:27] Bravo12, have you given execute permissions? [02:27] chmod +x *.sh [02:27] this page is getting hard to read [02:28] yes [02:28] cd bin [02:28] ls [02:28] cd bin && chmod +x *.sh [02:29] but sure, anything that writes like "files are equal" twenty times would do I guess (I have two copies of the 20 files, both directories are supposed to be the same, I want to be 100.00% certain) [02:29] Hey guys, if I clear out my udev 70-persistent-net.rules file and reboot the computer, why isn't the file being automatically repopulated with my devices? [02:29] platz: check out System76 [02:29] ok did that [02:29] checking now [02:30] daftykins: well I have at least 1GB free memory, wouldn't the easist way be to read in both files to memory (unless they toghether would be larger than free memory) ? [02:31] entenienne: i think you're spending too much time thinking about this task rather than getting it done :) [02:31] use diff! [02:31] daftykins: I suppose "somechecksum way" of comparing them could do (perhaps not md5 though that is know to have collisions) [02:32] diff moves harddisk hear millions times! thats why I want something else than diff. [02:32] the likelihood of you encountering collisions is ridiculously low. [02:32] my poor harddisk will explode :-D [02:32] platz: they look pretty stable. never heard of them thou... interesting [02:32] well leo that got it to run from the desktop [02:33] ???? [02:33] now to get it to run from its full path [02:33] ok ... [02:33] i set a script to start it on the desktop... to see if i could make some headway [02:33] but it won't run from the home directory, only if use terminal and cd into the desktop folder [02:34] ls [02:34] daftykins: but ok, how would a md5-way of comparing two directories look like? [02:34] Hey guys, I'm trying to install nvidia drivers (based on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2252908 which someone here just provided to me a few mins ago). [02:34] One of the steps says: Switch to command line mode (Press Ctr-Alt-F1) [02:34] however, that does nothing for me [02:34] are you sure? [02:35] Ctrl+ALT+ F1 through F6 should provide command line logins [02:35] at the user folder level it will not work, states no such file or directory [02:35] daftykins, I am pressing Ctrl+ALT+ F1 on ubuntu 14.01 and nothing is happening [02:35] haskell2: ah well, perhaps experiment with your keyboard. something must be up. [02:35] haskell2: ctrl-alt-F1 is supposed to show a textmode console [02:36] some keyboards have an F lock [02:36] function lock [02:36] (or well perhaps not real textmode, but faked textmode) [02:36] Greetings, I have a use case that I'd like to scrape the minds of a few with: If the DHCP server is down when ubuntu-server intially boots, and it is unable to gather a lease- then boots normally, then the DHCP comes online after the fact, will ubuntu notice the change? Thanks [02:36] ozAlek: nobody runs a server as a DHCP client. [02:36] brb guys [02:36] w00dog: those are interesting - good specs for the $$ [02:36] ah yeah, haskell2 perhaps have to hold down the [Fn] key too [02:36] Bravo12, make sure the full path doesn't have spaces ... [02:37] platz: they support Linux community such as "Linux Action Show" podcast, who have a referral link on their site. I'm not affiliated but wanted to point that out... And yes, very nice laptops; wish I had one! [02:37] just check the bash -x to the full path in.. and get the same spot where i started.. can not access tomcat [02:37] Do I have to create some horrible for loop to compare multiple files with md5? [02:37] daftykins, That didn't answer the question... it's a use case === lain_ is now known as atlas-hive [02:38] back [02:39] http://askubuntu.com/questions/111495/how-to-diff-multiple-files-across-directories [02:39] ok [02:39] yes, @entenienne [02:39] sounds fun [02:39] ozAlek: i truly believe it does. using DHCP is simply mindblowingly foolish [02:40] entenienne: I thought you could just point diff at two directories [02:40] so if i were to be in tty2 and want to go into gui, what is the command? [02:40] Is anyone available to help me reset my udev networking interfaces? [02:40] CTRL ALT F7 atlas-hive ... [02:40] daftykins, there are situations where DHCP is required [02:41] ozAlek: like? [02:41] leonidas__: yea, that brings me to login. but no ggui command [02:41] ozAlek: I might be tempted to bind a static IP onto, say, eth0:1 whereas eth0:0 is DHCP -- just to be sure. Short of testing your hypothetical scenario... [02:41] my HDMI monitor show 'cable not connected' even after i see it in xrandr and type 'xrandr --auto'. any idea? [02:41] still same damn thing arrrrggggghhhhhhhh [02:42] w00dog: well, using diff isn't an option. I don't want to read files 4KB chunks moving the harddisks read from each end of the disk thousand times back and forth for each file. [02:42] Bravo12, where is your tomcat path? (please paste the full path here) [02:42] is it possible to turn off delayed allocation on my ext4 *buntu partition? [02:42] entenienne: are you having HD failure issues? [02:43] w00dog: unless there is some magic flag --readsize 100MB on diff.... that would be wonderfull. [02:43] nerdistmonk: check out "man tune2fs" [02:44] nerdistmonk: I see a "nodelalloc" option in there... [02:44] home/mtsu-user/Desktop/WebGoat-5.4/tomcat [02:44] --speed-large-files [02:44] yes i know the nodelalloc command [02:44] w00dog, interesting, is this essentially virtual network interfaces? [02:44] but i do not know whats the best way of using it [02:45] ozAlek: not sure if that's the correct terminology -- might be though. I use it to access separate subnets on one NIC. [02:45] @Bravo12 chmod +x /home/mtsu-user/Desktop/WebGoat-5.4/tomcat/bin/ && /home/mtsu-user/Desktop/WebGoat-5.4/tomcat/bin/script_you_want_to_start.sh [02:46] ok [02:46] w00dog, this is great, it'll give me a fallback which i can manually connect to if required to do a dhcp release/renew - thanks! [02:46] sorry I did a mistake, Bravo12 [02:46] chmod +x /home/mtsu-user/Desktop/WebGoat-5.4/tomcat/bin/*.sh && /home/mtsu-user/Desktop/WebGoat-5.4/tomcat/bin/script_you_want_to_start.sh [02:46] ok [02:47] yeah i haven't a clue on how to use this on my install partition [02:48] can not access '././tomcat/bin/*.sh' : No such file or directory exists [02:49] daftykins, w00dog, the only reason I was originally thinking to use DHCP was because it was going between 2 different subnets- if i can use this to have subnet0 on eth0:0 and subnet1 on eth0:1- we should be golden without the need for DHCP at all, correct? [02:49] question: how to i connect to network using terminal only? [02:49] Bravo12 [02:49] http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forums/showthread.php?t=214 [02:50] wish I was using backtrak or kali, i find it easier to user lol [02:50] this is Ubuntu 14.10 [02:50] so... use them? [02:50] ozAlek: correct - I think the eth0:0 and eth0:1 would work for you allowing access to both subnets [02:50] well not BT, that's ancient [02:50] I can't [02:50] no need for aliases anymore [02:51] you can just do an ip addr add [02:52] so how would i go about applying -o nodelalloc to my main active buntu install partition? [02:52] yes leo, I have read that, they have changed the webgoat.sh file and file paths 5.4 (which is allso depreciated fyi) and i'm running jre8 [02:53] i used the sudo get package commmand for the java jdk8 install [02:53] and like i said I it works great if I cd down to the WebGoat-5.4 directory and run the .sh file [02:54] problem is when I try to get it to auto start .... it won't and throws the tomcat error [02:54] nerdistmonk: looks like it's an option to the "mount" command. I'd put it into /etc/fstab or maybe manually umount then manually mount -o nodealloc /dev/[device] and see if that works. [02:54] and what if you put a cd line within the auto start script? [02:55] you can't umount your OS partition.. [02:55] i'm affraid i don't follow [02:55] and doesn't fstab change rapidly due to uuid? [02:56] home [02:58] nerdistmonk: fstab shouldn't change much -- uuid guarantees persistent device allocation anyway. What's your current fstab line for your OS partition? [02:58] UUID=25e1b261-3a22-47b1-8a66-8e16c4320025 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,nodelalloc 0 1 [02:58] does that look ok? [02:59] looks okay nerdistmonk [02:59] what does the 0 1 stand for? [03:00] When I lock my screen after about 20 seconds the screen will turn off. However, if I move my cursor at all the screen will not turn back off no matter how much time passes. How can I have the screen turn off when it's locked after I have moved the mouse? [03:00] they were already in my fstab before i added nodelalloc [03:00] ahh i see dump/pass above them [03:00] ok im gonna reboot and see if this thing works [03:00] thanks for the help woo === Joshua^Dunamis_i is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [03:02] nerdistmonk: 5th field is for "dump" flag, 6th for order of fscheck when booting (man fstab) [03:04] nerdistmonk: 5th field is for "dump" flag, 6th for order of fscheck when booting (man fstab) [03:04] well it didn't eat it, so i guess that was a success.

[04:05] so the connection is ifupdown(interface) [04:05] I can reboot with the command sudo reboot [04:05] if anyone has experience with this, how can I get it to connect automatically? [04:06] Try adding yourself to group "wheel" maybe. I don't run desktop as root, but I checked and I'm in "wheel" group (among others) [04:06] @ BlueMonkey ^^ [04:06] Im in wheel group!! Should I add myself to root group? [04:06] I would leave permissions alone. [04:07] ummm....then whtat is the fix? [04:07] Me too. I'd probably do something like "apt-get install --reinstall kde-full" [04:07] you would lower your security level. [04:07] Or... [04:08] Right-click on Start-thingie, edit applications, see if there's an option there. Alternately, bring up Start-thingie panel, in the search field start typing "shutdown" [04:09] Hmm!!

[08:37] Hi Guys, quick q- is it possible to mount a NIC without assigning it an IP: it would be a Guest-Only NIC on a VM- it seems that the host must have it available, but I don't want it to use it in any way [08:38] (ubuntu server btw) [08:38] ozAlek: you don't "mount" a nick [08:38] ozAlek: ou can assign a physical / virtual nic to a guest OS without any IP details [08:38] slacka === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [08:40] ikonia, It's a physical nic that i want sole use for a guest - i assigned 'p3p1' to the guest, however it doesn't appear to be active [08:40] my damn mouse is too fast and it's bothering me so much, i can't reduce the speed anymore with the GUI and i don't understand how to use xset [08:40] ozAlek: what do you mean "not active" [08:40] ozAlek: could you define the actual problem please [08:41] ikonia: it is unable to communicate with the network- it's as if the card simply does not work. From what I've been able to google, the NIC needs to be active on the host [08:41] ozAlek: how do you expect it to communicate with a network without any ip details ? [08:42] ozAlek, the guest would have the IP details [08:42] oops- ikonia ^ [08:42] ozAlek: so what's stopping you doing that? [08:43] ikonia, The host does not have a wth* for the NIC- which is what I want, the NIC is visible in my virtualization software, when I assign it to a guest and then attempt to use that guest to get DHCP- it fails. [08:43] * bluezone hates high sensitivity with a passion [08:43] eth** [08:44] ozAlek: what is the name of the interface on the host(hypervisor) you want to use [08:44] ikonia, p3p1 [08:44] ozAlek: and you can see that with ifconfig p3p1 in the host ? [08:44] ikonia, no [08:45] ozAlek: then how do you know thats the interface name ? [08:45] ikonia, sorry, yes [08:45] ikonia, if you run ifconfig on it's own, it doesn't appear, but if you run 'ifconfig p3p1' it shows it's details [08:45] ozAlek: sorry, I don't see an issue, if the host can see the device, you can assign it to a guest as a pass through device and allow the guest to use it as a network card [08:46] ikonia, that's what I assumed, perhaps other things are in play here. [08:46] ikonia, it's a newly installed NIC, perhaps ubuntu doesn't have drivers for the card [08:46] ozAlek: you can see it in ifconfig [08:46] ozAlek: therefore the host can see it/user it [08:46] ikonia, roger [08:46] configure if it for the host if you want proof/test it [08:49] ikonia, thanks for the intel, i'll dig further and troubleshoot [08:49] ikonia, highly appreciated [08:49] ozAlek: when you assign the device to the guest, can the guest see it if you do ifconfig -a on the guest ? [08:49] ozAlek: remember it will not have the same interface name on the guest [08:50] ikonia, i can see eth0 and eth1, however i believe these are the virtual interfaces that have been bridged by the hypervisor to the card. [08:50] ozAlek: what are you expecting to see in the guest ? [08:50] ikonia, DHCP working [08:50] ozAlek: I mean in terms of devices [08:51] ikonia, what i see is accurate [08:51] ozAlek: what devices are you expecting to see in the guest [08:51] ozAlek: ok, so you see what you expect [08:51] ozAlek: and the bottom line is, dhcp isn't working ? [08:51] ikonia, yeah that's right [08:52] ozAlek: so you have 2 virtual devices mapped as a bridge to 1 physical on your host ? [08:52] 2 virtual bridged to 2 physical [08:52] ozAlek: which one are you expecting dhcp to work on ? [08:52] ikonia, eth0 [08:52] ozAlek: ok, how are you testing this from the guest ? [08:53] ikonia, ubuntu installation [08:54] ozAlek: sorry - "ubuntu installation" is not a "test for dhcp" [08:54] ozAlek: how are you testing dhcp from the guest [08:55] ikonia, the ubuntu installation has a section where it tries to configure DHCP [08:57] ozAlek: that is true, but it's a bit of an agressive test with no debug ability [08:57] ikonia, indeed- i've skupped it for now, i'll test once it is installed [08:58] ozAlek: I'd use a livecd boot to test it/debug it [09:06] I thought it If you click the icon on launcher the application minimizes... if there an option for that ?

[12:26] 14.04 [12:26] kingchipo, perfect. wait 1 [12:26] sure [12:26] kingchipo, 386 or amd 64? [12:27] 386 [12:28] kingchipo, OK --- you need 2 .deb packages for the broadcom and it should fire right up. [12:28] kingchipo, sudo apt-get install dkms [12:29] lol While i would prefer for it work natively, im rather scared to mess with it. [12:30] kingchipo, this works about 80 % of the time and doesn't even require reboot. your choice. [12:30] hmm ok lets give it a go.. [12:30] sudo apt-get install dkms bcmwl-kernel-source [12:31] kingchipo, that command should grab and install 2 packages. [12:31] ok both are installed [12:31] kingchipo, but you can sandbox test with sudo apt-get -s install dkms bcmwl-kernel-source [12:31] no worries [12:31] kingchipo, check your wifi --- it should be active [12:32] hmm, well its currently active with ndiswrapper should sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper ? [12:33] kingchipo, ndis will conflict with these 2 packages. disable it [12:33] the package you gave me is wl correct? [12:33] the sta drivers? [12:33] kingchipo, yes [12:34] actually, check your additional drivers --- might even be there [12:34] I blacklisted them when i installed ndiswrapper, let me remove wl from blacklist and add ndiswrapper really quickly [12:35] k rebooting [12:35] if this works natively.. ill be surprised haha [12:35] suprised [12:37] ummm are you a genie?

Actually I agree with both of them and don't consider Ben64 to be grumpy :) [14:13] hello [14:13] i support mixing repositories [14:14] what's wrong with experimenting that's how you learn [14:14] i said have fun, just it is not supported here [14:14] uh, why can't you discuss linux in here ben64? [14:15] it's a chatroom, not a paid-support system with a certain scope [14:15] it isn't a chatroom, it is a dedicated ubuntu support room, with certain rules [14:15] okay where does it say you can't talk about mixing repositories?

[14:17] knewguy: you've been here all of 2 hours, you really should read the rules of this channel before talking [14:17] Ben64: ^ [14:17] iptable: sure is, support is in #ubuntu+1 until april 2015 [14:17] Ben64: vivid is beta, right? I was sure it was 15.04 [14:17] yes [14:18] blami: vivid repositories and packages are not supported here. only on #ubuntu+1 [14:18] Ben64 the rules? you're the one who has failed to cite where in the rules it says you can't talk about mixing repositories (LOL2X!) [14:18] allow me to clarify [14:18] the aim of the channel is to provide meaningful support [14:18] not help people break their systems [14:18] knewguy: the user is mixing repositories from ubuntu+1 (future release). these are not supported here === OnkV is now known as Haudegen [14:19] "give good advice" is the policy [14:19] and telling people to mix repos is not good advice, hence "don't do it" [14:19] general linux fiddly things are normally sorted on #linux channel, let me repear that [14:19] iptable: thanks. that's useful. I'm stopping this. Is there any channel where people might help me to do what I want (aka unofficial support that might break my system?)

[14:19] blami: as I have already said 2 times, #linux channel. Do you even read what I write? [14:19] kind of weird using a bot... [14:20] iptable: ok I'll ask generic apt question on debian channel :) thanks to all [14:20] knewguy: the bot gives you links/info rather than have me type it out manually [14:20] 中国人的信仰就是：去他妈的，活下去最重要。 [14:20] nothing weird about it [14:20] blami: if you have questions about packages in 15.04, you can ask in #ubuntu+1 but I doubt they'll help you with mixing U and V [14:21] blami: any reason you are avoiding #linux ? [14:21] iptable: no [14:21] hey, would like to clean my drive, too much storage is used [14:22] iptable: on #debian will be probably better chance to get some help as debian people usually mix testing+stable to do similar thing (I'm also debian upgradee) [14:22] znc-: and? [14:22] znc-: what's stopping you ? [14:22] dont know how to do it [14:22] #debian will not help you add ubuntu repos [14:22] znc-: open file manager, delete the data you don't need/want any more [14:23] znc-: open file manager (or click on "home" to get to home directory) and remove files you don't need from Download/Desktop/Documents folders [14:23] would be nicer to get it automatically [14:23] znc-: how can you automate deleting user data ? [14:23] znc-: how would an automatic system know which files you want to keep... [14:23] the whole point of it is, it's your data [14:23] analyzing what is just wastelike [14:23] and could be just removed [14:23] ikonia: it's rather apt related question than ubuntu specific question, I'll manage [14:23] znc-: what defines what's waste ? [14:24] hey [14:24] sure that is the question [14:24] znc-: the answer is "you" the user define what is waste [14:24] cannot be buliding something and nearly 20gb are gone [14:24] ridiculous [14:24] there is a program... bleachbit it kind of shows you what you could remove, but it may want to remove things you want to keep [14:25] Ben64 thx [14:25] yes, it's also possible to delete "orphaned packages" or so [14:25] how to use ubuntu [14:25] ???

All in all just a pain to work with using awk/sed or other string processing tools [14:39] phew kde loads [14:39] znc-, sorry for nearly making you reformat your machine [14:39] White_Cat: is this any good? There may be other similar programs if not http://csvkit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/scripts/csvjoin.html [14:39] no proble it was a solution so thx too [14:39] basichash: ok, just bear in mind we had people joke rm -rf / and others remove their systems. Please keep it in mind, not everyone will treat it as a joke [14:40] White_Cat: alternative - http://superuser.com/questions/26834/how-to-join-two-csv-files [14:41] trying bleachbit [14:41] 95,5 MB gone [14:41] well that wasnt the aim [14:43] znc-: most space is used by your /hmoe most likely, i.e. YOUR files in Documents/Downloads/Desktop. These tyou need to go thourgh and clean yourself! [14:43] znc-: we did tell you [14:43] understand [14:43] how can I just show the usage of space in the directory [14:44] my home just [14:44] right-click on the dir, properties [14:44] in terminal? [14:44] or from command line: du -hs /home/whatever [14:44] ok trying [14:44] replace whatever with your username [14:45] On ubuntustudio, when I tried to logon today, after entering my password it showed me a blackscreen, and then got me back to login prompt.....And this kept happening. How do I fix this?? [14:46] znc- in your home directory, use this command, change 500M to any size find / -size +500M -exec ls -lh {} \; 2>/dev/null [14:46] znc- hope that helps ypou decide what you want to keep/delete [14:46] znc-: then you can do: du -hs /home/whatever/* [14:46] we just got a new router, but my linux can\'t access it using either the network key or the WPS-PIN. How can i access it? [14:46] znc-: that will show you usage per subdir in your home dir [14:47] basichash: define "can't access it"? [14:47] basichash: the GUI or trying to connecto via WiFi or via cable get an uplink, or what? [14:48] SohamG: fix your permissions on your home direcotry [14:48] SohamG: chown -R youruser:youruser /home/youruser [14:48] iptable: for some reason the network key or WPS-PIN on the router doesn't work on ubuntu, although it works fine on windows 7 [14:49] WPS-PIN, so attempting to connect to the router's WiFi? [14:49] can that be done through recovery mode?? and this happend all of a sudden...like yesterday i could login to my account no problem... [14:49] iptable: yeah [14:49] iptable: works on windows, doesn't on ubuntu [14:49] SohamG: ctrl+alt+f2, login to console, execute that command [14:49] basichash: I am guessing by "network key" you mean the password, i.e. WPA2 passkey ? [14:50] 'login to console'? I am currently on a guest session so I cant really do anything... [14:50] Hey folks [14:50] SohamG: yes you can. Press ctrl+alt+f2 [14:50] SohamG: that should take you to text-mode TTY2 [14:50] BluesKaj: yo [14:51] Hi iptable [14:51] iptable: yeah i believe so [14:52] basichash: "I believe so" ? what is the router you have? [14:55] I'd like to have a program which runs at startup and backups files with ssh. I'd like the program to run [14:55] after the keyring is enabled, so it doesn't prompt me for a passphrase. Is that possible? [14:55] pngl: yes [14:56] pngl hint: create a cronjob and add @reboot in it [14:56] pngl: write your backup script, run it form /etc/rc.local or /etc/init.d (and enable to rc*.d) or run from crontab with @reboot time directive [14:56] MonkeyDust: damn. chased me to it :D [14:56] iptable i was faster \o/ [14:56] iptable: vodafone [14:57] basichash: what do you mean vodafone? what's the router? [14:57] basichash: tip: look for a sticker with make and model [14:57] iptable, MonkeyDust : ok. I'm not sure it will have access to passphrases by then, I tried putting my script in .config/autostart (which happens later if I understand correctly) and it failed [14:57] pngl: oh, you need it AFTER LOGIN? [14:57] iptable: astoria networks by twonky [14:58] pngl: GUI or shell? [14:58] DSL-EasyBOX 803 A [14:58] iptable: DSL-EasyBOX 803 A [14:58] iptable: gui [14:58] basichash: that explains why it only works with windows :P NoName router. let me see [14:58] pngl: on my mint/ubuntu I have "startup applications" option in the GUI [14:58] iptable: well I need it whenever the passphrases are accessible to an automated script [14:58] pngl: where I can add a script [14:58] iptable: please can you give me the command (the chown one) again? I hopped in tty2 but didnt look at the command and coudnt get out of it :P [14:59] pngl: alternatively run it from crontab and make the script check and wait until passphrases are available [14:59] SohamG: lol, no worries. chown -R youruser:youruser /home/youruser [14:59] SohamG: replace youruser with your username [15:00] iptable: I think that's my main problem. How do I check for this. Right now it just fails if there's no terminal, or prompts me for the passphrase. I don't know how to make it wait. [15:00] iptable: thanks!! and how do i get out of tty2? [15:00] SohamG: press ctrl+alt+f3 through to F8. one of them will be your login. eitrher F7 or F8 should be [15:00] iptable: thanks again! [15:00] pngl: why not use the "startup applications" part? [15:01] SohamG: no worries [15:01] pngl: pretty much every piece of software has that. make it start there, sleep for 30 seconds and go. [15:01] pngl: you can add options to ssh with -o. google for the list. one of them will be to try auth with key only. and you should use shared keys instead of passwords with ssh if you want safe login. [15:02] iptable: Ok. That would work some fraction of the time but I'd like to know if there is a way to actually block on the event "keyring is up" [15:02] iptable: yes, I meant passphrase for the private key. [15:02] Hi! My name is Alex :) Give me a registration code, please! Help newbie join to the linux mint community! [15:03] pngl is this useful http://paste.ubuntu.com/9284032/ [15:04] pngl: where is that passphrase coming up? does it get logged? where is the keyring? what is it, can you make it log? investigate that or don't use passwords on your key for the backup system [15:04] MonkeyDust: If I understand correctly, this copies a public key to a remote server. This is already set up in my case. But the client still needs a passphrase. [15:05] ketphish: there is no tregistration codes for linux ubuntu/mint. just download ISO and install [15:05] MonkeyDust: he setup encrypted with passphrase keys for ssh :/ [15:06] pngl: don't use password on your keys if you want to automate the backup. or run your backup script from "startup applications" section of your GUI and make it sleep 60 or so seconds before it attempts to backup. the GUI startup applications start once you login [15:06] iptable: this is not secure. A passphrase encrypts a local private key. The passphrase is in the keyring, which stores encrypted data that is decrypted whenever I log in (the user password is the decryption key). [15:06] pngl: or instead I could just boot your backup server in single user mode unless you encrypted the hard drives [15:06] pngl: don't use password on your keys if you want to automate the backup. or run your backup script from "startup applications" section of your GUI and make it sleep 60 or so seconds before it attempts to backup. the GUI startup applications start once you login [15:07] the 60 seconds is "just in case" [15:07] pngl: I just encrypted my hard drives, problem solved :/ [15:07] hey guys my software center gives me an error when installing vlc [15:07] iptable: haha I should consider that.

[15:19] is there a way to purge this default UI, and make it more desktop default? [15:19] right click on desktop, should give me an option to "spawn a terminal" [15:20] pistdov: that is the ubuntu UI. it looks and works like this [15:20] did you use the ubuntu iso, or some other way to install? [15:20] pistdov: if you want another UI, you could try kubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu, which feature other UIs [15:21] the generic ubuntu iso [15:21] pistdov: or (although not supported here), mint [15:21] compdoc: he is just going through Unity shock [15:21] pistdov: What you are not liking is called Unity. It works differently from the "traditional" desktop environment that you are used to. Other desktop environments in Ubuntu are usually their own versions of Ubuntu, such as Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Kubuntu, etc. [15:22] pistdov, quick and easy: sudo apt-get install lxde xfce4 kde then logout/choose your preferred session/login [15:22] i have a macbook pro with osx 10x etc, but i didnt expect this o [15:22] on this VM [15:23] cfhowlett [15:23] E: Package 'kde' has no installation candidate [15:23] pistdov@ubuntu:~$ [15:23] via sudo apt-get install lxde xfce4 kde [15:23] !info kde [15:23] Package kde does not exist in utopic [15:23] !info kubuntu-desktop [15:24] kubuntu-desktop (source: kubuntu-meta): Kubuntu Plasma Desktop/Netbook system.

[15:26] pistdov: you should download kubuntu ISO instead. Installing kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu-desktop introduces some issues with icons and themes being mixed between the 2 UIs.

Then plug wire in [15:33] m0h4wk: if wireless is connected, linux may not switch you to avoid dropping connections [15:34] How can I create a launcher to the sound settings? [15:34] momomo: you cannot. sound settings are an applet and also part of the settings application. [15:34] momomo: you oculd install pavucontrol (a separate tool) and create a launcher to that [15:35] momomo, type 'sound' in dash, and drag that icon to your panel [15:35] momomo: someone here MAY soon correct me with something like "you can, the system settings control panel allows you to do it" [15:35] there we go ;) [15:36] I was 50% sure I was wrong for some reason. sorry. my bad.

In component multiverse, is optional.

[19:02] wich driver do i have to install [19:02] alami, For help post the actual issue. [19:02] daftykins, Clonezilla doesn't handle bad sectors in a good way either from what I understand [19:02] zteam: you seem to have forgotten the other days convo :) [19:03] alami, I mean include the graphic hardware info at least. [19:03] daftykins, whereas ddrescue is special-made for cloning discs with bad sectors [19:04] zteam: yep we've been over this and i still disagree, goodbye now i'm heading out!

[19:07] zteam: yeah 'cause you ignore advice (: [19:07] daftykins, I don't want to unnice or so, but just debating which tool, I should have used then I did spend around 2 days to make the clone doesn't really solve my problems.... [19:07] Any idea why YouTube isn't working. There's just white area where the video should be. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. 2GB RAM & Radeon 9800 Pro video card. Same on guest / user. Firefox says Shockwave Flash 11.2.202.424 is "always activate". "X - core" eats about 50% CPU. YouTube works on Windows 7. [19:08] daftykins, No, I'm not, but for now, on I do intent to try to fix the the device that I cloned rather than starting from scratch [19:08] Olito [19:08] * WLM is back (gone 00:03:04) [19:09] alami, Not an area I have had to mess with, so just be sure to have hardware and your issue together is all here. [19:09] Sohail-Ahmed: iirc, the mtpfs package must be installed dpkg -l | grep mtpfs should display "ii" if it is installed on your system. also check the end of dmesg when you plug in the unit to make sure it is recognized [19:10] daftykins, as I said I spent around 24 hours to make that clone, so in the first place I'm trying to fix the issue, and learn from my misstake, starting over from scratch is the last resort because it would be very time-consuming [19:10] stop highlighting me now please. [19:12] surething dude, it's not that I not appreciate your device, but I want to try other options before starting over to clone a 2 TB drive, that's really all I'm saying :-) [19:12] the problem is saying things 5x [19:14] squinty: Thanks for responding, have a look. http://pastebin.com/Z5kS1wDu [19:15] On that I agree, but, the reason I asked the same thing over and over is because you aren't answering the question, the question was: "why does my cloned drive appear as unknown and how can I fix it?" [19:16] daftykins, you're answere was "you should had use clonezilla instead" [19:16] Any idea why YouTube isn't working? There's just white area where the video should be. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. 2GB RAM & Radeon 9800 Pro video card. Same on guest / user. Firefox says Shockwave Flash 11.2.202.424 is "always activate". "X - core" eats about 50% CPU.

I just installed Av Linux in my dual boot pc: Windows + ubuntu. Av Linux was installed in the Ubuntu partition and I messesd up the grub. I get this message: error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found, and I have a "grub rescue>" in the screen. How can I recover the grub and open Av Linux + Windows in my dual boot pc? thanks for the help! ;) === zz_gthank is now known as gthank [19:28] Velho: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu itself and official derivatives. Since AV Linux is not this, please contact your distribution's creators for support. [19:29] rww: the problem is not about the distribution, is about the GRUB. I just need to correct the GRUB [19:29] Velho: then use your distribution's support venue,. [19:29] ok, let me rephrase, then [19:29] Velho: No need. You're not using Ubuntu, so you don't use #ubuntu for support. [19:29] AV Linux may have made changes to GRUB. You really need to check with them [19:30] thanks, rww, IdleOne === PhiRez is now known as ZerOlegend-Ubunt === ZerOlegend-Ubunt is now known as ZerOlegendUbuntu [19:32] the GRUB [19:32] rww, IdleOne unfortunatelly, Av Linux has no irc channel. Should I ask this question in debian irc? Ubuntu and Av Linux are based In debian, don't they use the same grub? [19:33] Velho: you might try asking in ##linux [19:33] IdleOne, thanks mate :) [19:34] IdleOne, did you mean #linux? [19:34] nope it's ##linux [19:38] Velho, Try #grub [19:41] hey [19:43] bubbasaures, already did, with no response. :( [19:50] What's the best way to temporarily disable password protection at boot on a LUKS-encrypted sysetm? Will an empty passphrase DWIW? [19:56] Hi! My current Ubuntu set-up is one large partition for all data and one swap partition. I just got home with a SSD and now I want to change my partition scheme to 1 partition with /home/ on my HDD and 1 partition with everything else on my SSD. Is this something which can be done? [19:58] ejbs: how big is the existing disk? [19:59] ejbs: the better way to do it is to install fully to the SSD, then symlink the static media folders e.g. ~/Pictures, Video, Music to the HDD [20:00] daftykins: *big*, as in my home folder holds way more data than my SSD can handle. I could always symlink, that may be much simpler. I would still like to dd over all folders except /home/, but I guess that question can be answered with RTFM :) [20:01] ejbs: dd would be a bad idea, you're meant to minimise writes to an SSD. hrmm, can you pastebin an existing "df -h" and parted -l ? [20:02] anyone has problems with intel graphics installer? [20:02] ejbs, i would install ubuntu fresh, mount that hdd, remove all folders from / except /home/ and you are done [20:03] ejbs: i like OerHeks idea :D [20:03] ftp://605.8f9.myftpuoload.com Login: projondub Pass: Alloallo696! Free Public FTP for sharing stuff! Plz dont del stuff. [20:04] daftykins: parted -l gives no output in the terminal. pastebinning df -h atm [20:04] lets del stuff ..

[20:06] OerHeks: daftykins: But my Ubuntu installation has a bunch of already installed software and PPAs and stuff like that. How am I supposed to resolve those issues? [20:06] There is no such thing as Free Porn http://bit.ly/1y2SGSo [20:06] yes, remove that old swap afterwards and expand the partition. [20:07] is there a site that will tell me what DM's older ubuntu versions have [20:07] ejbs: they're not issues, they're minor obstacles... keep the PPAs saved, reimport and reinstall a package listing from "dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt" [20:08] ejbs, ppa's can be backdup, just note the ppa name. you could make a list of all installed packages, i would rescue my favorites, home folder stays with data, and go for it [20:08] hello [20:08] can you read this text? [20:08] allo Velho [20:09] OerHeks: daftykins: Minor obstacles but there's many of them (I think)! I [20:09] is linux better then windows? :p [20:09] !ask | Velho [20:09] Velho: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:09] ejbs: nah, your task is easy [20:10] OerHeks: daftykins: But I'll do what you guys say. It's mostly that I have software/binaries which doesn't come from PPAs which I don't have much knowledge about. I'm not really in control of my system in that way. But whatever, it'll probably solve itself... As long as my Emacs works as intended I'm for the most part happy. [20:10] Thanks anyway guys, much appreciated :) [20:10] *tips hat* good luck [20:11] ejbs: oh and if you haven't owned an SSD before, make sure the firmware on it is the latest before you start using it [20:11] bprompt, I didn0t ask to ask. Please read my question again. You can read me, that's what I needed to know, thanks!

[21:17] i am having ubuntu 12.04 i needed to make 2 partition and show in CD and USB place [21:18] saleem: what language do you speak? there might be a better channel for you [21:18] i speak in english [21:19] i can see that you're trying yes, but your question didn't make sense [21:19] hmm... so pulseaudio actually uses alsa underlyingly... now I am confused. :) [21:19] i tried using live cd but its causing mount error when restarting [21:20] a mount error when trying to do what? [21:21] when i made partition using Gparted when i restart the virtual machine there is error machine pop saying recovery machine [21:21] saleem: What does the popup say exactly? [21:21] it keep on coming [21:21] where do i upload here [21:22] !pastebin | saleem [21:22] saleem: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [21:24] if i use virtual machine as virtualbox can i make partition === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [21:24] Yes. But whats the exact error message you get? [21:25] just one moment i upload in imgur.com site [21:28] I [21:28] i upload in imgur.com the screenshot [21:29] the message i got its in screenshot please see and let me know how to solve it [21:30] saleem: You need to tell us the URL. [21:30] where do we find the url [21:30] saleem: You uploaded the screenshot, imgur told you the URL. [21:30] on the picture... [21:31] it is http://i.imgur.com/kBUvKgb.png?1 [21:32] No, thats the preview icon only. [21:32] And thats a grub start menu, not an error message at all. [21:32] That picture is so tiny saleem [21:32] i got this same message in ubuntu 12.04 [21:33] saleem: There is no error on your picture. [21:33] i will upload again [21:33] So I've tried this twice: I've DLd the Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS iso and tried to extract it to both my USB and my HDD and it fails, the extract program either crashes without warning or only extracts 2.6MB of the files. Are there any alternative places to DL the Ubuntu ISO which is not from their website? [21:34] ejbs: What are you actually trying to do? An ISO is not to be extracted at all. [21:34] hi [21:35] where to look for url [21:35] is anybody here I am new to this stuff... [21:35] bekks: Seems like I've been doing something wrong for a very long time then :). Put the Ubuntu ISO on my USB for installation [21:35] ejbs: what OS are you trying to create this from? [21:35] saleem: imgur tells you the URL. [21:36] I added this PPA but it isn't showing up in my list in Synaptic Package Manager. of course I've reloaded. I've restarted the computer then reloaded also. [21:36] ejbs: dd if=/path/to/ISO of=/dev/sdX bs=2M # where sdX is your flash drive [21:36] link is http://imgur.com/esnrCmb [21:36] ejbs: Indeed. Nowadays, you can write the iso using dd, see the post of daftykins [21:36] apeoid: how did you add it? [21:36] daftykins: Ubuntu haha. It seems like you're my savior once again :). Thanks bekks! [21:37] in the software & updates settings thing [21:37] lubuntu 14.04 [21:37] saleem: Thats a grub menu, no error message. [21:37] saleem, that picture is too tiny [21:37] you using your smart phone? [21:38] so if I go to Software & Updates, Other Software, here it is and checked: http://ppa.launchpad.net/johanvdw/saga-gis/ubuntu [21:38] binary, trusty distro...

[21:51] dts: No, why would it? [21:52] bekks, because a lot of gedit is from vim [21:52] dts: dunno about that... [21:52] but I doubt it'd work anyways [21:52] you can certainly try it, however [21:54] oh oh duh ok. saga yields 2 results, , the ppa in question [21:54] apeoid: if you are comphy with the shell,start here-> find /etc/apt/ -type f -exec grep -H saga {} \; [21:55] hello. i have a insignia BT adapter im trying to get detected on ubuntu 14.04, any help? i am running latest updates [21:55] right [21:55] I get /etc/apt/sources.list:deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/johanvdw/saga-gis/ubuntu trusty main [21:55] that's the one I need to show up in synaptic [21:56] apeoid: not sure what "show up in synaptic" means, but you should be able to install what you need. [21:56] hello people === ara is now known as Guest41047 [21:56] I don't see it in the sources list in synaptic package manager [21:56] I have ubuntu-gis ppa also which also has SAGA... that's the only one that shows up [21:58] I'm new to Linux, Elementary OS. I have DELL Inspiration 5110 with integrated graphic card Intel and descrete Nvidia 525M. I saw there is a build in driver novaou (or something like this), that takes place of my nvidia driver and something is taking place of my Intel Driver (not sure what). I've tried so many ways of installing the Nvidia drivers(from official site, from linux repositories, bumblebee and optimus) and each of all [21:58] failed. The driver from the official website succeed but I got a messagge (Not compatible, 640x480 to output 1366x900), so I uninstalled it. And I need an advice, what to do to install proper drivers to watch movies and play games on it. [21:58] apeoid: could be that the PPA you added has packages only for a different ubuntu version [21:58] apeoid: fwiw, using 14.04 with unity here and out of curiosity installed that ppa. seems synaptic now uses "software and updates" to display it's sources listings.... that ppa showed up without any problem here. is it the ppa entry or the files you can access from the ppa that isn't being displayed on your end. your query is kinda of ambiguous on that matter... :) [21:58] !elementary | dimitrovovich [21:58] dimitrovovich: Elementary OS is an Ubuntu derivative which is supported in their IRC channel #elementary on irc.freenode.net - http://elementaryos.org/ for more information on this distribution. [21:58] Hi! Could you help me to create a simple *.deb package containing just one file (/etc/init/bitcoind.conf) this package will depend on upstart, on login and on bitcoind. [21:58] dimitrovovich: elementary OS is not a supported derivative, you need to seek support with their people. [21:58] sebo: that'd be a huge waste for a package, why not just script up a wget of it to the appropriate place. [21:59] ^ [21:59] the PPA entry is indeed in the Software & Updates thingy. However, in Synaptic Package Manager when I click the sort by sources on the left... it isn't there [22:00] I'm duel booting ubuntu on a 2011 MacBook Pro. Is there a way to keep wifi working after it wakes from sleep? [22:00] apeoid: did you update your repositories since then? [22:00] I guess I'm trying to install the version of SAGA from Johan not from ubuntugis-unstable/trusty [22:00] yeah sudo apt-get update [22:01] also restarted the computer [22:01] daftykins: Such approach could also take care of creating a proper user `adduser --system --group bitcoind` and to take care of all the permisionning [22:02] sebo: the script? sure could [22:02] apeoid: you ahve to do sudo apt-get upgrade after, update only checks for updates, doesn't install them [22:03] daftykins: moreover while having such 'bitcoind deamon' package would let for creating additional packages which might require it. [22:03] no upgrades [22:04] how do i enable bluetooth in ubuntu 14? [22:04] I don't get any error messages [22:05] this PPA is failing to download I think [22:05] And there allready exists similar packages (which do enable some features of allready installed software) [22:06] I go to Authentication in Software & Updates and PPA for Johan shows a key [22:07] I added the key using: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys [22:08] gpg: key 62DED99E: public key "Launchpad PPA for Johan Van de Wauw" imported [22:09] the ubuntu installer does not recognize windows and does not give the option to install along side windows, what do i do? [22:09] birdman007: is this dual boot with windows 8? [22:09] yes 8.1 [22:09] birdman007: did you boot from your flash drive in EFI mode? [22:09] !efi [22:09] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [22:11] I've noticed from time to time when importing or exporting photos through shotwell, I get some photos that cannot do the transfers. [22:11] Question is, anyone else having that problem ? [22:12] apeoid, why not avoid those key issues, with " sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name " [22:12] !addppa [22:12] A !ppa can be added using a single command « sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name » See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Adding%20PPAs for more details [22:13] so that would be ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable [22:13] the bluetooth adapter im trying to get detected by bluez tools is called Dynex in lsusb list [22:14] what does cd .. mean [22:14] acidrain: the ####:#### number is mroe useful [22:14] natha: go up a directory [22:15] what does cd /etc mean [22:15] reisio: the model number? [22:15] i cant find any other information on it [22:15] johanvdw/saga-gis ok I added it using apt [22:15] the ####:#### value [22:15] where do i find that at? [22:15] natha: "cd .." means go up one folder, "cd /etc" means change directory to /etc [22:15] oh sry [22:15] i see it [22:16] how to create a text file with spaces in the terminal [22:16] Bus 004 Device 012: ID 19ff:0239 Dynex <--- this is a bluetooth devicde [22:16] natha: what do you mean spaces? what are you actually doing? [22:16] use " " i.e. touch ~/Desktop/"my test file.txt" [22:16] reisio: its not detected in bluewho or with bt-adapter -d [22:17] im losing hope here :'( [22:17] so im trying to get my canon MG5250 printer to work with latest ubuntu, i've tried canons driver, and open source drivers, gutenprint. I go into printer manager, and in the case of canon driver, it detects the printer, but can't print a test page, incase of the OS driver, it doesn't. I tried using IPP via my router with both driver, but no test page. I can ping the printer. Any ideas? === FreezingAlt is now known as FreezingCold [22:18] acidrain: covered by the generic bluetooth usb driver, I think [22:18] some other hints at http://www.google.com/search?q="19ff%3A0239" [22:19] cups see it Guest41047 [22:19] i am trying to create a text file and the name of the text file has to have a space in it.

[22:21] how do you write text into that file [22:21] Corey84-, in the printer manager i mean [22:21] natha: that's a bad idea on Linux [22:22] synaptic can't find it but if I remove ubuntugis-unstable from my repos, then apt-get install saga, it installs from Johan's repo [22:22] i need to know how to do it [22:22] wtf it wont let me do this: echo "19ff 0239" >> /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id [22:22] even as sudo [22:23] echo "19ff 0239" | sudo tee -a /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id [22:23] in a browser or in your file manager search for it via the localhost:631 or network:/// show up anywhere [22:24] cheers [22:24] bekks: wow thx bro! [22:24] GOOD GOD [22:24] natha: once you have a file with a space in it, you can easily complete its name using tab, for example: gedit nathans[TAB KEY HERE] [22:24] its working [22:25] acidrain: gj [22:25] now to just be able to find devices :):):):) [22:25] thx guys. and sry for being such a desperate linux noob [22:29] Hi people. I just installed windows on a new ssd harddisk worked fine. And then installed ubuntu on another harddrive. Now when I start up, ubuntu boots, and I only see ubuntu if in grub boot menu.

[23:12] I'm building a shell script that starts a game server with ./file, and after that sends some commands to tmux. [23:12] I can't seem to get it to do anything after the ./file starts. I guess the fact that the game server starts interupts the rest of the script?

[23:16] bubbasaurus: No not now, I did before, but there was only ubuntu to choose from. Now it seems kinda slow on boot [23:17] el3, YOu are missing part of the windows boot files needed, do you have a install or recovery disc? [23:17] bubbasaurus: Win7 is also a fresh install, so yes [23:18] el3, The sdb1 is the windows install, just confirming? [23:20] el3, sb1 is missing the "/bootmgr /boot/BCD" This is a fix from the terminal on booted recovery or install disc, sdb1 also needs a bootflag [23:21] bubbasaurus: yes sdb1. [23:21] bubbasaurus: okey? is it complictaed to do? [23:22] el3, Are you following this info and can ask questions as needed? You also have no evidence you should be seeing the grub menu in the script so need info there.

[23:25] acidrain, pulseaudio or alsmixer maybe? change the master to the usb input [23:25] bubbasaurus: Okey. I could also start the whole process from the beginning. Format both ssd and regular. [23:26] Corey84-: i want the sound to come out of my tv, and soundbar at same time. there is NOT an option for the bluetooth sound device to send sound to it [23:26] Corey84-: my machine IS using the usb bluetooth adaptor. and it IS connected to the soundbar [23:27] just no sound [23:27] checked alsamixer for a mute? [23:28] el3, Sure if you like, probably can be removed as is however you still have to repair windows and put grub in the sda mbr. [23:29] Corey84-: i have checked it. there is nothing at all muted. BUT like i said, the bluetooth adaptor isnt even showing up in alsamixer [23:29] you would still rather* [23:29] el3, Myself I could do that all in about 5 min, but I know thew drill [23:29] the* [23:29] bubbasaurus: ok, yea I am not as hard core :) [23:30] bubbasaures, 5 mins thats slow lol [23:30] Corey84-, Gotta boot several things. [23:30] bubbasaures, you one of them dudes lol [23:30] ill stick to my lukcrypted lvm [23:31] bubbasaurus: but you make it sound easy, maybe I should not do a reinstall, and stay here a bit longer :) wasting someones time [23:31] mmm [23:31] Corey84-, Really, how you gonna repair "/bootmgr /boot/BCD" from linux? [23:31] learnign is never wasting anyone's time dude [23:32] with grub heheh [23:32] screw bcd [23:32] you are just being stupid, and have no clue [23:32] Well bubbasaurus is not learning anything from me :) [23:32] in what log file will i find this? bluetoothd[5556]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.83 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource [23:33] Corey84-, If you can please try at the least to actually add to the channel not just espouse trollish idiocy.
