[00:51] hi does anyone know of a virtual fish tank software? i got a spare 42 inch tv and a spare computer, want to turn it into a fish tank, prefer to be able to virtually feed the fishes, but if not its ok [00:51] HappyNewYear13, in the 2.4Ghz band I'd use 13.. [00:51] HappyNewYear13: eee.. weird question [00:52] check which are used, and choose most free channe [00:52] icloud, that's so cute. it never occured to me to do that. i love fishes [00:52] Klapo, did that and chose 5. but my wifi disconnects. i was on 3 not i am on 5. waiting for the disconnection now... [00:53] channel doesn't matter when it comes to disconnects [00:53] something else is broken [00:53] maybe your ap or drivers [00:53] Klapo, online documentation talked about setting your country [00:53] Klapo, i was trying the easiest solutions first [00:53] anyone know about how long check disk will take on a 500 gig drive? [00:54] well country is for limiting power [00:54] + sometims you can use one more channel [00:54] i see [00:54] Klapo, i also read about putting wifi power off. mine is off already [00:54] albert: depends on the check you run and your disk's throughput [00:54] wait what? [00:55] power management [00:55] oh, thats good [00:55] what does it mean anyways Klapo ? [00:55] also disable power management for PCI Experss too [00:56] well, idk.. but got some problems when it was on on my lenovo [00:56] albert, a windows chkdsk? [00:56] dasjoe, under disk i ran smart data and self test [00:56] so I disabled it too. [00:56] Klapo, lenovo! this is the one i have now. it's new [00:56] also some chips are working bad when 5GHz is enabled, so check this too [00:56] model?

[00:58] Klapo, bye [00:58] dasjoe, i chose short [00:58] albert, depends on what check disk program you are using and what options you added [00:58] albert, Heh, well should finish is my guess. ;) [00:58] lapion, didnt do anything but hit start [00:59] Does anyone else get xhci aborts when reading or writing in block sizes in excess of 8MiB to and external usb3 device ? [00:59] already at 113 bad sectors [00:59] windows or ubuntu ? [00:59] lapion, I think it's the smart gui in disks [01:00] lapion: gentoo [01:00] lapion: dare to think outside the box [01:00] well this is boring waiting argg [01:00] arvut, if someone says chkdsk I automatically think chkdsk.exe it's specific a name [01:00] albert: abort and delete hdd now. buy new and reinstall [01:00] anyone have anything fun to do on ubuntu untill this check disk finishes [01:01] arvut, send me one [01:01] bazhang [01:02] lapion: why would it need the .exe extension for you to know what kind of file it is? if its binary and executable then that should be enough [01:02] albert, you need to use a tool like badblocks to find you bad sectors and than use advanced options of hdparm to rewrite the bad sectors so the drive can reassign reserve sectors [01:03] lapion, is that using the commands i tried earlier that i had no clue if it was doing anything in the command prompt ? [01:03] lapion: there are various ways to execute instructions, not just the .exe way of things. its not the .exe-way or the highway [01:03] lapion: that's not true, a smart self test will remap bad sectors [01:04] arvut, in linux and unix environments we tend to talk about fsck or badblock checks. and with apparent noobs we need to verify such things ... [01:05] hey guys i am new here i need to ask smth [01:05] how i stop the check disk at startup OS=ubuntu 14.04 [01:05] smart doesn't allways work correctly, in my experience a manual relocation is usually the best option. [01:05] noobs ? i ran sudo badblocks -v /dev/sda1 [01:05] didnt know if it was actually doing anything [01:06] not all hdd manufacturers allow relocation after certain smart values have been reached [01:06] my hdds have many bad sectors [01:07] albert, use badblocks -vv and try using a blocksize of 512 [01:07] sudo badblocks -vv /dev/sda1 ? === Granis` is now known as Granis [01:09] sometimes if you set badblocks to use 1 block at a time and blocks sizes that are the same as sector sizes and overwrite the disk with zeroes autoreallocation does it's job and you wind up with a disk with no badblocks [01:09] lapion, how do i implament the 512 [01:09] however be certain badblocks have not reached thier maximum and enable bablock reallocation with hdparm [01:09] albert si the man [01:10] see [01:10] check the manual. man badblocks [01:10] lapion, uh who da man [01:11] unix default manual pages are da man [01:11] apparently not you [01:11] yes [01:11] very epic [01:11] so is this shoutcast [01:11] lapion, well the -vv gave me atleast visual in command prompt [01:12] albert, to learn we all read somewhere how and what to do. [01:12] albert, most unix/linux knowledge comes form reading da man [01:13] lapion, thats why i am here lol. where to read i have no clue [01:13] *from [01:13] just type: man badblocks [01:13] o well im going to buy a new one [01:13] albert, on the command prompt [01:13] takes to longb [01:13] albert, the best ides ever for people with hdds with badblocks [01:14] *idea [01:14] lapion, i just installed it, it was working fine for a week [01:15] good morning to all [01:15] hard to imagine utilizing badblocks being a more worthwhile use of your time than obtaining a replacement hard disk [01:15] lotuspsychje: mornin' [01:15] even though it's evening! :p [01:15] is there a solution to connect to garmin connect with ubuntu, to update garmin device? [01:16] well its late and i had hard time booting up and i just installed a week ago and dont even know anything to do on here yet [01:16] ive tryed garmin-plugin but it did not connect [01:17] back when i first used linux i was gaming quake 2 lolo [01:19] lotuspsychje: like, firmware? seriously doubt it [01:20] daftykins: no, its to update maps for garmin device to latest [01:21] daftykins: ubuntu recognizes the device as media, but cant connect to that garmin/connect website [01:21] lotuspsychje: yeah even less likely [01:21] albert, is the data on the disk redundant? [01:22] albert, I mean do you have backups or can you simply erase the data ? [01:22] lapion, there is nothing on here [01:23] albert, so then use the write mode of badblocks with a block size of 512 [01:23] lapion, trying to figure out how to add that command [01:24] albert, have you tried to type man badblocks on the commandprompt ? [01:24] albert, literally "man badblocks" [01:25] yes but its been a long time since ive ran a linux distro [01:25] you can try testdisk also [01:25] !info testdisk | albert [01:25] albert: testdisk (source: testdisk): Partition scanner and disk recovery tool, and PhotoRec file recovery tool.

[01:27] albert, to not have issues you need a drive that's errorfree.. [01:27] lotuspsychje, he has badblocks [01:27] lotuspsychje, wouldnt let me boot into gui [01:28] sudo badblocks -vv -b 512 /dev/sda1 > bad-blocks-result is that correct ? [01:29] albert: what kind of error do you have === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [01:29] albert, if the drive can be zeroed just do the following: badblocks -vvwb 512 /dev/sda1 -o bad-block-results [01:30] albert, you have to be sure that sda1 is the disk you need to check and is erasabel [01:30] lapion, lol ok duh [01:30] albert, all data of sda1 will be fully erased [01:32] Is there any program so i can see facebook status in terminal? [01:33] however to assure you have no problems with all other areas of the disc you should do the same with the whole disc and use sda in stead of sda1 afterwards all partitions and all their data will be gone and you'll have to re-init the partition table with fdisk or gdisk if you prefer uefi usage of the drive === Guest97903 is now known as kyle__ [01:34] Prezident: didnt test myself, but you could try links2 [01:35] Prezident: and a more advanced way here: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/08/use-facebook-from-command-line-with.html [01:37] looking for help running GUI verison of this - https://github.com/mikar/blockify - please please :D [01:37] can i play facebook games in terminal too? [01:38] OerHeks: i doubt it, as they need flash things probably [01:39] lotuspsychje, there is a fbdev webbrowser that uses directfb in stead of xwindows [01:39] links2 was pretty well, with -g it sucks then i can use firefox or luakit or any other browser on same thing [01:39] but in terminal its nothing different then lynx for example. [01:40] OerHeks: Sure, it's called a browser :P [01:40] lapion: you have a packagename for OerHeks ? [01:41] rypervenche: :p [01:41] hi there.I have a stupid question [01:42] nathanas: no questions are stupid mate [01:42] should my server be set to my countrys local time [01:42] There are no stupid quiestions, just stupid people [01:42] or to the country that is physical thye server connected? [01:42] it serves users that mostly are in my country [01:43] nathanas: Yes and no. The actual hardware clock on the system should be set to GMT, but the locale should be set, and that should display it in local time. [01:43] i am talking about hte locale [01:43] yup if you're storing dates/times just use UNIX time and GMT/UTC/Zulu to store times [01:43] in my local time right? [01:43] your local time for the locale should make reading logs based on the time easier [01:43] ok [01:44] and for the ntp configuration of the server should i do the same? [01:44] !time [01:44] Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) === PhiRez is now known as Ankoran [01:44] Timezones and Network Time Protocol Synchronization [01:44] The time non-local users see should be in the locale for where the server is I think. But this is a really neuanced question you're asking :) [01:44] nathanas: ntp should only be adjusting the UTC time I believe [01:45] nathanas: For NTP to work right, I beleive the hardware clock NEEDS to be set GMT. [01:45] I am asking two questions really [01:45] NTP doesn't care what the locale time setting is at all . [01:45] nathanas: the locale timezone setting should be adjusting the UTC/GMT/Zulu time but if you have a locale timezone set then it should adjust for display purposes appropraitely [01:45] the locale of the server should be set in my country? [01:45] wafflej0ck_: Is it still called zulu anywhere? Just curious. [01:46] nathanas: Yes. [01:46] nathanas: yeah for ease of translating times and looking at logs compared to your local time that should make it easier [01:46] kyle__: I did some USAF work they call it Zulu [01:46] i am looking at this article [01:46] kyle__: and timezones were a huge problem [01:46] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/additional-recommended-steps-for-new-centos-7-servers [01:47] kyle__: according to the military everything is supposed to be stored in Zulu time but unfortunately that was not the case [01:47] wafflej0ck_: I can only imagine. ugh. It's bad enough with users just in the US through the UK.... [01:48] wafflej0ck_: I thought some OSes and linux distros only stored in GMT... [01:48] yeah we were aggregating data from multiple systems and sometimes they were Zulu/UTC/GMT and sometimes they were stored in local time (in the database) [01:48] made for a great nightmare [01:48] plan9 I think.... [01:48] When you find the region/timezone setting that is correct for your server, set it by typing: [01:48] sudo timedatectl set-timezone region/timezone [01:48] i am trying centos [01:48] And the sysadmins wept, and the auditors laughed at their pain. [01:48] but i use to connect to this room [01:49] hi guys [01:50] is ubuntu already have sftp server installed? [01:50] basically i want to be able to do sftp [01:50] anyone? [01:50] Hulio: no you can use vsftp but it's not super easy to configure and it's not really super secure from what I understand [01:50] Hulio: scp tends to be a lot easier and secure [01:50] i thought ubuntu is built in? [01:51] i remember i did awhile ago [01:51] Hulio: vsftp is in the repos but not installed by default I'm pretty sure [01:51] Hulio: there is an sftp server built into openssh, so if you're using the openssh server (the default in ubuntu), it supports sftp. [01:51] Using ubuntu 14. [01:51] sorry [01:51] I cant resolve the issue here [01:52] I need to achieve time & NTP sync [01:52] i thought install opens ? [01:52] open ssh [01:52] !ftp | Hulio [01:52] Hulio: FTP clients: Nautilus (Places -> Connect to server), gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); Konqueror, Kasablanca, KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd [01:52] Hulio: Although, there is a known bug in it (still), where the transfer rate is much lower than with scp. [01:52] but timezone should be set in servers zone [01:52] because i think services are going to check the time with systems nearby [01:52] lotuspsychje, no third party please...ithought i used to do install open ssh thing [01:53] why would i need third party software? [01:53] so if I set my servers to my local (users zone) [01:53] then i willhave correvt time but i won't know if ntp & timezone sync works [01:53] Hulio: see the !ftpd trigger [01:53] what do you think is best? [01:53] i know i am asking something silly [01:53] Hulio: you're talking about SFTP as in the SSH variety, sure - just install openssh-server then your client can hit port 22. [01:53] Hulio: it isn't third party software it's still coming from the Ubuntu repos where the rest of your packages for the OS came from just some packages are installed by default since everyone uses them and others aren't [01:54] but i need to know every single setting I am changing in my distro [01:54] *vps [01:54] i see [01:54] Using ubuntu 14.04, I had a USB headset that stopped working, apparently because battery got damaged. But now I do now have audio at all. I pasted the results of the "ALSA Information Script" to http://paste.ubuntu.com/9307668/, but I can't understand whats in there. Is there a way to reinstall all audio system from scratch? If so: How? TIA! [01:54] !sound | nimbiotics [01:54] nimbiotics: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

[01:56] lotuspsychje: checking ... Thanks! [01:56] Hulio: personally I setup vsftp but didn't like the limitations imposed by it and found it difficult to configure, since I wanted continuous integration and deployment I ended up just setting up Jenkins on my server to watch for changes to the git repo, pull them, build, and deploy so it all just happens on the server via a git commit/push as the trigger to build/deploy.... it's definitely some setup but Jenkins is pretty nice and [01:56] glad to have it now, no messing with FTP/scp directly [01:57] for opening the server to others who won't be working with Git though I still understand the need [01:57] i dont understand [01:57] i think this lot are talking about ftps === max is now known as Guest28582 [01:58] without quite knowing it [01:58] i use to never do or use the vssftp thing [01:58] all i do is opens [01:58] open ssh [01:58] yeah, so install openssh-server and job done [01:58] Hulio: whats your end goal exactly? [01:59] Hulio: you want file transfers from where to where? [02:00] so i am asking again [02:00] i need to setup ntp synchronization to my server [02:01] why [02:01] so i need to set the timezone [02:01] the server is in another zone than the user is [02:01] what should i choose? local user timezone or server timezone? [02:02] nathanas: ntp doesn't care about timezones [02:02] does ntp synchronization checks and compares time by delivering packages to the servers near your server"? [02:04] i don't see how time is hugely relevant [02:04] It can do that, yes. But that doesn't matter, as it's syncing using UTC, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol [02:05] nathanas: Is ntp not running? Or is it running, and you don't think it's getting time? [02:05] nathanas: you can configure what servers ntpd is using I don't believe it will automatically choose the nearest server, but the drift should be minimal using ntpd [02:05] run the command, 'ntpq -p', and you'll see the current status of the ntp system. [02:05] nathanas: you can use date, or date -u (for utc) to see the current setting without the -u it will use your locale to adjust the time shown (internally it is still the UTC time) [02:06] hey [02:06] im trying to create bootable usb using winusb [02:06] and i get this error: [02:06] nathanas: UNIX Time is seconds since Jan 1st 1970 UTC and is how the system sees the time really [02:06] http://pastie.org/9751451 [02:06] how to fix it? [02:07] nathanas: on 32 bit systems it will run out of seconds in Jan 2038 [02:07] fun fact [02:07] i know about ntp [02:07] i have used it in arduino invoronment [02:08] and i got seconds so i could make calculations to get the current time [02:08] wafflej0ck_, rofl are you serious post some links [02:08] wafflej0ck_: Fun fact, nothing existed before Jan 1st of 1970. [02:08] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJQ691PTKsA [02:08] heh [02:09] rofl [02:10] isthisreallife: you could try a clean erase with gparted first maybe, then retry winusb [02:11] you mean format to ntfs using gparted? [02:11] isthisreallife: another nice package is multisystem [02:11] it didnt help [02:12] hi [02:12] i tried to upgrade my kernel to 3.17.4 and it gives me a coupe of error messages that look similar to this one: ERROR: sil: invalid metadata checksum in area 2 on /dev/dm-1 [02:12] isthisreallife: never had such error on winusb myself, not sure what it means [02:13] what does that mean? [02:13] i tried the update, because my virtualbox doesnt work and a forum suggested a kernel update [02:13] isthisreallife: what kind of usb stick are you trying?

For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) [02:19] serapath: i already said what it was [02:19] azhumvee: no a "tarball" is typically a file with a tar.gz extension, tar is "tape archive" gz is "gzipped" [02:19] lotuspsychje i have 16gb verbatim usb drive [02:19] can any one help me recover a corruped sd card [02:19] is that what you meant? [02:20] windows didn't help [02:20] azhumvee: have you used Git? [02:20] isthisreallife: this is a stick? [02:20] sonda: i think we spoke about this earlier today, how far did you get with seeing the card in diskmgmt.msc or diskpart ? [02:20] !info testdisk | sonda [02:20] sonda: testdisk (source: testdisk): Partition scanner and disk recovery tool, and PhotoRec file recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.14-3 (utopic), package size 314 kB, installed size 1269 kB [02:20] yes [02:20] wafflej0ck_: no but i installed it.. and cloned what i want to my system.. now i have a variety of .py files that wont open.. tried python whatever.py [02:20] isthisreallife: maybe check your syslogs for errors on that stick? [02:20] windows channel didn't help me [02:20] daftykins: thx, could you phrase it more not technical? is my hard drive broken? [02:21] sonda: sudo photorec your sdcard [02:21] azhumvee: also this is using pip which is a a program for getting python dependencies and installing a program (basically packages for python https://wiki.python.org/moin/CheeseShopTutorial) but just follow the instruction in the README after you cloned the git repo [02:21] isthisreallife: you have another stick you could try? [02:21] serapath: so, less technical. can you share a "dmesg | pastebinit" ? [02:22] just hold on [02:22] isthisreallife: try also that multisystem package, and drag your win iso to it [02:22] when i do "find . -iname init" i get results like /foo/init, /bar/init, this/that/init. how can i make it so that only this/that/init is found?? i tried grepping but for some reason it doesn't work [02:22] wafflej0ck_: thx ill give it another stab [02:22] azhumvee: yeah pretty sure you can sudo apt-get install pip [02:22] nope [02:22] azhumvee: but only used it a few times myself [02:22] ill try multisystem [02:22] sonda: right but you didn't answer my suggestions. [02:22] azhumvee: so you know at your own risk yada yada yada [02:23] wafflej0ck_: nod - thanks [02:23] http://pastebin.com/i3dH9JVm [02:23] isthisreallife: i only tested ubuntu iso's, not sure win will work (didnt test myself) [02:23] hey everyone . Can I encrypt the bios itself ? === Romtam- is now known as ^R [02:24] daftykins: btw, thx [02:24] Vivekananda_y510: probably not but most BIOSes provide an option for password lock from changes [02:24] wafflej0ck_, I need a definitive answer [02:24] Vivekananda_y510: maybe the ##hardware guys can provide more info on that [02:24] Vivekananda_y510: the BIOS is on a CMOS chip typically so it's not on the HD to be encrypted [02:24] hi [02:24] okay on the hardware guys then [02:25] how can I see my mutt settings? [02:25] Vivekananda_y510: you would need to check the CMOS chip manufacturer specs to see if it does any encryption on the chip [02:25] like, I'd like to see the "send_charset" [02:25] Vivekananda_y510: never heard of it but it might exist [02:25] wafflej0ck_, okay but I am just talking about generally available commercial encryption software [02:26] Vivekananda_y510: right that stuff doesn't work on the CMOS/firmware chips and stuff on the board it only works for data on the HDD [02:26] which one daftykins [02:26] Vivekananda_y510: so that's not gonna do it [02:26] serapath: where did you see the previously mentioned error? [02:26] sonda: both, did diskmgmt.msc show up the card? did diskpart? [02:26] i think i forgot your suggestions === josh is now known as Guest2745 [02:26] even diskpart says no media [02:26] sonda: so you haven't tried them at all and yet come back in here? bit cheeky [02:27] your disk is toast then [02:27] lol [02:27] *card [02:27] during the "in progress output" after i issued the command: sudo -s dpkg -i linux-headers-3.17.4*.deb linux-image-3.17.4*.deb [02:27] Vivekananda_y510: you can pull the HDD out and still get to the BIOS (and the encryption software lives on the HDD) you see the problem here? [02:27] Vivekananda_y510: typically the password locking is good enough [02:27] Vivekananda_y510: someone would have to extract the CMOS chip from the board and read the data off of it [02:27] serapath: hmm maybe irrelevant. anyway you're using Mint so you'll need to go chat to those fine people on the other network [02:27] how can it get corrupt..i have done no physical damage [02:28] only i tried parttioning it in android phone [02:28] sonda: check your syslogs or dmesg, sd might be dead as daftykins suggested [02:28] and TWRP messed it up [02:28] lotuspsychje: worst part is lubuntu is a VM, not even the host OS =| [02:29] sonda: and try testdisk and gparted, if it doesnt show there its dead [02:29] VM is a gift to the ppl [02:29] sonda: could be a problem with the sdcard controller aswell, so check your logs [02:30] sonda: plug it in so "dmesg | tail" shows it appear again, then try a "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" after that. [02:30] Vivekananda_y510: there are hardware encryption solutions impelmented in some devices like encrypted USB drives but I've never heard of an encrypted CMOS (I don't doubt this is something at the high end of the government but it's not consumer grade or even commercial grade stuff it's gotta be custom made I imagine) [02:30] http://pastebin.com/SqFhcLXR [02:31] Vivekananda_y510: off topic, go chat to ##hardware [02:31] is there a way to disbale light locker when flash is full screen in chrome? [02:31] the linux mint help channel doesnt seem very frequented. [02:31] rubberducky from nsa [02:31] maybe just one question: do you think i can restart my computer without a not properly installed kernel will trip me over [02:31] can i undo and switch back to the old kernel? (3.17.0) or maybe it did not yet switch to 3.17.4 because the process stopped with an error message? [02:31] serapath_: sorry, no support for Mint. at all. [02:31] ok [02:31] thx anyway [02:31] you did join their network yes? [02:32] irc.spotchat.org [02:32] their channel - it's not here on freenode [02:32] !mint | serapath_ [02:32] serapath_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [02:32] sonda: waiting for the other one [02:32] serapath_: you could make your life easy and install ubuntu 14.04 [02:32] http://pastebin.com/EA5k2Q38 [02:33] sonda: and "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit" [02:33] i think i might do that next time, but currently it doesnt help me. but thx... is there another channel? because the suggested channel above is pretty empty [02:33] sonda: you sure your sdcard is not locked right? [02:33] serapath_: i think you joined the channel on freenode instead of on the *other* server. [02:33] oh ok. i see [02:34] serapath_: only takes 30min to install ubuntu will help alot! [02:34] * daftykins facepalms [02:34] lol [02:34] 야 [02:34] oh oops, sry for that [02:34] http://pastebin.com/Sui7E6bU [02:34] lotuspsychje: can i install it just over mint with no problem? [02:34] !cookie | daftykins here some force [02:34] daftykins here some force: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [02:34] i mean, so that i wont lose my data [02:35] use VM as you should regard this as a potent enemy infection [02:35] serapath_: its reccomended you install ubuntu fresh [02:35] ok [02:35] thx [02:35] serapath_: always make a backup [02:35] how do i know if its locked [02:35] i'll try that maybe tomorrow [02:35] sonda: yep no sdb showing up, she's dead, jim. [02:35] :-) [02:35] XD i just solved black rock screen problem by completely ad-hoc method lock and immediately enter tty mode [02:35] sonda: assuming your cardreader even functions in VMs [02:35] sonda: check the little slide on sdcard itself [02:35] lotuspsychje: i hope these have alcohol in [02:36] !yay | m4db0y [02:36] m4db0y: Glad you made it! :-) [02:36] daftykins: :p [02:36] alcohol is a must to get this done! [02:36] shall i put a different sdcard and see [02:37] pepperbiffen: please keep your comments to yourself, either ask a support question or go chat in #ubuntu-offtopic . you are helping nobody. [02:37] sonda: be creative and test yes [02:37] dip in 60% alcohol first, then let it dry for 3-4 years ;) [02:38] sorry [02:38] ill behave [02:38] pepperbiffen: leave. [02:40] Is there any webbrowser in terminal what handled java? [02:40] I dont want gui [02:41] Prezident, I don't think so.... [02:41] Alright. [02:41] Pretty boring, if they could fix that we didnt need gui.. [02:41] Prezident: links2 is nice, but dont think it handles java [02:41] link2, luakit etc are really awesome ... but would be better if they could in termina, wich they are able to. But without images. [02:42] lotuspsychje: sure, but then you need gui to browse pics [02:42] Prezident: your on a server? [02:42] no, desktop [02:42] but wanna remove gnome, just need a great browswer to make my needs filled. but seems like there is no goood options yet [02:42] So has to live with crap gui [02:43] Prezident: so your trapped in a GUI enviroment :p [02:43] Prezident: you can certainly get a more minimal GUI that supports browsers [02:43] Prezident, try openbox [02:43] Prezident: personnaly like Gnome but different strokes for different folks, perhaps Awesome or TWM or something would be nice [02:44] Well i could live without gui with my bots for ircs, bitlbee for weechat etc, just need something for facebook [02:44] fbcmd not are good enough, so there must be a workaround for webbrowsing.. [02:45] Any1? [02:45] facebook chat = bitlbee.. facebook status = ?? [02:45] lapion had a suggestion about a browser earlier..not sure if he's here still [02:46] should this patch be in 14.04 or do i need to do something special to install it? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-utils/+bug/1309744 [02:46] Launchpad bug 1309744 in xdg-utils (Ubuntu Trusty) "[SRU] Light Locker blanks the screen when playing video" [Medium,Fix released] [02:46] Prezident: there are some Fb packages that can check messages in software centre, but they are GUI also [02:46] lotuspsychje: what did he type, i cant scroll that much [02:47] !logs | Prezident [02:47] Prezident: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [02:48] Prezident: as l0rdn1x and wafflej0ck_ suggested you can try minimal window managers and use terminal and simple browser from there [02:49] Prezident: as you dont want all the *bling [02:49] yeh, thats what i am doing now. [02:50] guess i has to live with it until there will be a nice feature.. [02:50] hey if i put another sd card it shows up as /dev/sdb1 [02:50] Prezident: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys might also know another browser? [02:50] so its confirmed that the old sd card is dead [02:51] or any way to recover [02:51] sonda: did someone already have you use, lsblk [02:51] sonda: not possible to recover media you can see [02:51] sonda: bin it. [02:51] cant [02:51] sonda: i'd like at this point to point out i came to this conclusion earlier today. smug mode engaged. [02:52] i couldn't get you daftykins .. smug mode?? [02:52] sonda: did you have the sd card data on another media once? [02:52] yes [02:52] where? [02:52] sonda: don't worry, pleased with being right :> [02:53] i haven't used lsblk wafflej0ck_ [02:53] some posts i saw they tell use dd to create new device [02:53] i am scared to do it [02:53] sonda: on wich media did you have the sdcard data on? [02:54] lotuspsychje: will ask, im idle there, thanks! [02:54] np [02:54] l [02:54] no i don't have backup [02:54] sonda: lsblk should list block devices including any mount points it won't really modify anything [02:54] and i am not interested in recovering data [02:55] i just want to format it [02:55] sonda: dd is used to copy block by block from one device to another that's where you can destroy things [02:55] sonda: if lsblk doesn't see the device though I'm pretty sure nothing else will let you partition and format it [02:55] sonda: thats the end of the story then :p [02:56] its not allowing to format also [02:56] whats the command just lsblk? [02:56] yup [02:56] fellow users, the card is dead - please allow us to get on with the grieving process and mourn briefly [02:57] sonda: lspci (for pci devices) lsusb (for usb devices) lsblk (for block devices) ls for file listings [02:57] lets carry on [02:57] yup seems like it [02:58] lsblk doesn't list it [02:59] can i not create from dd using if=/dev/zero? [02:59] if it doesn't show up in lsblk, it's dead [02:59] sonda: nope no where to point it to [02:59] sonda: it's dead [02:59] sonda: plz stop asking support for a dead sd [03:00] sonda: if it wasn't stuck in your computer it'd be pushing up daisies, it is an ex-SD, it has ceased to be [03:01] ok thank you all [03:01] oh yeah lsmod and lshw I left out of the list... are there others I should know about? ways to list things about the system [03:02] besides surfing and email, what do you guys use *nix for? I'm looking for something to do with myself [03:03] malgorath: web development is mostly what I do [03:03] malgorath: you could explore Blender too it's fun for learning 3D modelling if you're into visual art stuff (it does a lot more too) [03:03] wafflej0ck_: Thats pretty much the way of the future huh? [03:03] malgorath: it seems so [03:03] wafflej0ck_: I have the artistic skill of a stone [03:03] malgorath: but there are "bridges" for GTK and Qt to and things to be run in the browser [03:04] malgorath: you can use ubuntu for any interest [03:04] Ben64: XD [03:05] which ubuntu is good for personal use [03:05] how do i install docker apps ? [03:05] pavimob: conky or docky are nice [03:06] lotuspsychje: think they mean Docker.io not docks [03:06] sonda: define personal use [03:06] oh right [03:06] lotuspsychje: unfortunately I don't know about docker apps really [03:06] me neither [03:07] sonda: you can use ubuntu server for personal use also..so all versions from topic are for personal use [03:08] sonda: finding best version for you, is up to your own needs [03:08] its better to install separately than via virtual box right? [03:09] sonda: if you want a daily use of ubuntu, you can install [03:09] sonda: what is it you want exactly? [03:10] i mean is there a difference in using it via virtualbox or separate [03:10] i want to learn linux [03:10] sonda: for learning VBox is fine [03:10] sonda: performance wise it will be better as a native/dual boot or by itself install [03:10] i want to be like one of you :) [03:10] sonda: you cant, you are yourself :p === crypto is now known as Guest2108 [03:11] sonda: best way is to experiment your own way [03:11] sonda: eh I just "dog-fooded" it, just use it as my every day driver and learn more that way, and lurking the chat here [03:11] my release info shows no new release - but my xserver version is still at 1.15 ??!? [03:11] can anyone help? [03:11] ello === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [03:11] --help [03:11] both light-locker and xscreensaver don't seem to be deactivated [03:11] I upgraded the nvidia driver - it didn't go smooth...probably because of that? [03:12] I have 346.16 now [03:12] sonda: started off with Ubuntu in VBox though too and eventually went dual boot then switched to Windows in a VBox and Ubuntu as the base system (so just slowly switched over, over time) [03:12] but, I am not sure how to upgrade xserver ver.... [03:12] So how do I change my nick on here? [03:12] Guest2108: type /nick nickhere [03:12] Guest2108: /nick newnick ....... if you have other questions about IRC, ask them in #freenode [03:12] pgnome: you don't [03:13] ? [03:13] but, it is should be at 1.16? [03:13] wafflej0ck_, so ubuntu is powerful [03:13] Well I tried that command and nothing, so I'll go figure it out. Thanks though! [03:13] pgnome: "cat /etc/issue" [03:14] performance wise windows sucks right? [03:14] hi [03:14] sonda: yeah it's a nice distribution especially for those relatively new to Linux, pretty large community and lots of solutions on Ubuntu forms, the trick is to always look with your version number included so you get new/relevant information, performance wise Linux tends to be better than Windows but it is in part about what you install and how you configure the system [03:15] sonda: typically windows loads lots of extra stuff to deal with common cases for users (or things like superfetch that index data in the background for the search) that can be resource intensive === Guest2108 is now known as newname [03:15] cat /etc/issue [03:15] Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l === newname is now known as _crypto_ [03:15] so yeah, nothing newer if that's a proper install. [03:16] can i install ubuntu on a 8gb card [03:16] OSs don't belong on SD cards [03:16] and boot it from there whenever i want to [03:17] sonda: the Flash drive or SD card installs are fine for some basics but you can't really install much cause you'll eat up that storage pretty quick, that said if a computer boots off of USB it gives you a way to have some basic tools anywhere [03:19] i am having problem runing code:bloocks what should i do ? [03:19] sonda: I have a 128GB SSD drive and find myself strapped for space sometimes but it's mostly Android Developer Tools (10.6 GB) then a couple Steam games (6.5GB) and my /var/www for web dev stuff is pretty big due to node modules so that's around 6GB too [03:20] waw === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [03:20] it's actually not too bad right now I'm using 60GB [03:21] but I do have to watch it if I'm transferring/editing videos and things like that [03:21] and keep the games to a minimum on here :) [03:22] whats is LTS? [03:22] SSDs have gotten relatively cheap though so I may upgrade it soon (and move this SSD into my desktop since using a HDD for the OS has now become unbearable) [03:23] sonda: long term support [03:23] sonda: !lts [03:23] !lts | sonda [03:23] oh [03:23] sonda: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [03:23] sonda: if you google Ubunt LTS they have a nice chart to show you when they will shut down the repos and stop releasing security updates [03:23] Ubuntu* [03:23] !lts | prezi [03:23] prezi: LTS means Long Term Support.

[03:25] !upgrade [03:25] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [03:25] pgnome: must be running the wrong thing [03:25] pgnome: it isn't an LTS release I don't think it asks unless you check a box to upgrade regardless [03:26] qt is for gui development right? [03:26] pgnome: or manually trigger it [03:26] sonda: yeah it's for making GUIs that are cross platform compatible [03:26] sonda: uses C++ [03:26] sonda: er is a C++ library rather [03:26] sonda: think it uses some JSON syntax for the layout as well but I'm only vaguely familiar with it, would like to dig in more one of these days [03:28] $ sudo do-release-upgrade [03:28] Checking for a new Ubuntu release [03:28] No new release found [03:28] ?!? [03:28] yes, stil not running it right [03:29] pgnome: read the above first link. [03:29] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get safe-upgrade ALT dist-upgrade [03:29] enjoy! [03:29] pgnome: why exactly are you upgrading too? you may want to reconsider since 14.04 is LTS [03:29] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UtopicUpgrades [03:30] i also agree with wafflej0ck_ here, upgrading to 14.10 is a bad idea. [03:30] yes [03:30] pgnome: unless you are doing some testing or need something in 14.10 you'll be forced to upgrade earlier by moving up to 14.10 [03:30] I agree to.. 3 vs 0:) [03:31] This sudo apt-get safe-upgrade solve your problem pgnome ? [03:31] did* [03:31] I didn't do it yet [03:31] Ok [03:31] I'm just reading your msgs :) [03:31] thanks, Prez [03:31] np [03:31] pgnome: in future follow links given [03:32] what links? [03:32] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UtopicUpgrades <- 2mins ago. [03:32] okay, just making sure [03:32] i ran into some libpcap issues on 14.10. only god know how many other issues lurk in the darkness [03:32] bookmarked [03:32] pgnome: and earlier, the upgrade ones where i typed !upgrade [03:33] I usually just re-install [03:33] Sith_Lord: explain your problem i will help you. [03:33] !upgrade [03:33] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [03:33] ok [03:33] else i recommend #ubuntu-offtopic for OT! [03:34] my nvidia driver was upgraded... will I run into probs with the older xorg version? [03:34] Doubt that pgnome [03:34] o/ [03:34] pgnome: yeah typically everyone is looking at supporting LTS versions more then the .10 versions in particular [03:34] hope not :( [03:34] The only way to find out is to try out, be sure you are using backups, but thats common sense. [03:34] well i installed the pf_ring package which comes with a copy of tcpdump-4.1.1. whan compiled with pf_ring, sniffing an interface with tcpdump crashes the system. UBRUPTLY. no logs [03:35] wafflej0ck_, ok [03:35] pgnome: using the Additional Hardware panel instead of installing yourself helps too to keep it easier to change back if things go wrong [03:35] Hey Tinkerlad, whats on your mind? :) [03:35] i am currently unable to get this to function on 14.10 [03:35] only thing i can think of is the libpcap version between 14.01 and 14.10 jumpoed from 1.5 to 1.6 [03:36] 14.04* to 14.10 [03:36] Sith_Lord: anything meaningful from dmesg ? [03:36] Im just joining in, just starting to look at ubuntu..... Have a fair bit of experience with linux but never used a ubuntu based system before.. [03:36] Sith_Lord: you may also want to try #ubuntu-devel I believe (someone correct me here if I'm wrong) [03:36] wafflej0ck_: the crsh was so immediate that there was no logs [03:37] If you wanna chat about ubuntu in general we got a channel for that - #ubuntu-offtopic - See ya there Tinkerlad [03:37] Ahh ok. Sure :) [03:37] If you get any problems you are welcome to ask in here.. Hope you enjoy your new distro. [03:38] in the end after a quite a few hours of tinkering, i just blew away the rackspace instance and went back to 14.04 [03:39] i thought about playing with downgrading just the libpcap but it has many dependancies. im not good enough to modify that much system functionality. downgrading OS was easier once i discovered how much may be entailed in just downgrading the libpcap version [03:39] is it possible to downgrade ubuntu 14.10 to 14.04 lts / [03:39] ??? [03:39] hello guys this not working sed -i '/s/;cgi.fix_pathinfo=1/0cgi.fix_pathinfo=0/g' /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini it gives me this error sed: -e expression #1, char 4: unknown command: `;' I tried escape chars using \ [03:40] he1s3nberg, No, do you have a separate home? [03:40] Almis, just go and change it by hands. [03:41] loki_ i make a shell script to not repeat this process [03:41] wafflej0ck_: i check that channel and see what they have to say. thanks :) [03:41] bubbasaures, no. im facing problems while shutting down the system. it wont shut down. taking a lot of time . also lots of hanging problems too. the system is uptodate. but still having stability problems. === hunter is now known as Guest86032 [03:42] s/i/i'll/ [03:42] bubbasaures, also the brightness gets boosted to max after a screen wake up everytime. [03:42] he1s3nberg, The issues would ve best one by one to the channel, I asked about home as it makes reinstalls easier for some. === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [03:42] be* [03:43] Hola [03:43] Sith_Lord: actually tried looking that's not right but there is an ubuntu programmers chat (maybe it's named that) [03:43] bubbasaures, by home what you meant ? [03:43] Tengo un problema para instalar proFtpd [03:43] guys help [03:43] Sith_Lord: might be able to get more direct help on debugging the problem there though [03:43] k [03:44] mozzarella: what's wrong cheese? [03:44] bubbasaures: of course its possible downgrade, wtf? [03:44] it seems like totem doesn't modify the access time of the videos I watch, why is this? [03:44] he1s3nberg: here you go: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto [03:44] Prezident: no it isn't, notice the "unsupported" and "candidate for deletion" and references to hardy [03:44] Prezident: please stop giving poor advice. [03:44] XS bye [03:45] Read the howto please daftykins [03:45] Doing the downgrade [03:45] If you're ready to continue, we're going to continue: [03:45] First, we need to update APT's information: sudo apt-get update [03:45] Prezident: read the top of the page, unsupported. candidate for deletion. are you perhaps illiterate? [03:45] Next, we'll downgrade: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:45] I did it myself, works fine. [03:45] But dont let go OT now, please. [03:46] he1s3nberg, home is the file system you have direct access to without passwords I.E. that is root. [03:46] !downgrade [03:46] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system. [03:47] bubbasaures, i need to enter the password for getting root. [03:47] hey [03:47] anyone here_ [03:47] this not working sed -i '/s/;cgi.fix_pathinfo=1/0cgi.fix_pathinfo=0/g' /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini it gives me this error sed: -e expression #1, char 4: unknown command: `;' I tried escape chars using \ [03:47] http://askubuntu.com/questions/49869/how-to-roll-back-ubuntu-to-a-previous-version < daftykins - never tell me give poor advices again, there is tons of ways. [03:47] coc0nut: yes, just ask your question, and someone will help you [03:47] it gets easier with livecd, but possible without even. [03:47] nice! [03:47] he1s3nberg, Right and we are in deep left field, having to explain what home is. [03:47] because im using remote desktop [03:47] sup coc0nut? [03:48] Prezident: there are things that are supported and things that aren't, downgrading isn't. therefore it's bad advice. don't take it personally, it's not not advisable. [03:48] and it hasnt the keyboard language i want, it has us and i want norwegian [03:48] *just not [03:48] Prezident: daftykins is completely correct in that downgrading is unsupported; it may work sometimes, but you're bound to run into issues due to configuration changes, etc. [03:48] I wouldn't recommend it to people in this channel, as it is, as I said, unsupported [03:48] Sure he is, but its still possible. [03:48] I never said it wasn't possible [03:48] bubbasaures, what u think might the problem is ? is it the new version ? or any other way to solve the mentioned problems ? the downgrading process seems to complex for me. [03:49] I'm just telling you not to give people bad advice [03:49] he asked if it was possible, not if there is a support way to do that. [03:49] lol. [03:49] now you're arguing semantics [03:49] let's not get into semantics here [03:49] Alright, i stop. [03:49] Sorry. [03:49] hey guys, cut it loose. [03:49] he1s3nberg: do you have a question? [03:50] Logan_, yes,i do and i asked it. [03:50] alright, let's leave it there then :) [03:50] anywone else is troubled with different keyboard language when remote desktoping from windows to ubuntu_ [03:50] im using ubuntu mate [03:50] Logan_, yeah. any solutions ? my system is getting too unstable. [03:50] he1s3nberg, You can't expect an answer to vaguely described whole set of hard to tell if related and spread across multiple posts. That is not how it works here is all, no I have no idea, I had just wondered about home and andwering your question. [03:50] he1s3nberg: check my urls and you find your answer, be careful and be sure you doing backups. [03:50] I have a question...how do I downgrade to an older version of Ubuntu? [03:50] answering* [03:51] :) [03:51] kevin__: don't troll please [03:51] lol [03:51] LOL [03:51] sorry [03:51] I have a real question... [03:51] ? [03:51] hard to believe, but go ahead [03:52] I'm running 10.04 (old PowerBook) [03:52] lol [03:52] and the ignore is set [03:52] how much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood [03:52] kevin__: are you running it for a server? [03:52] Nope [03:52] Just a laptop [03:52] 10.04 is no longer supported for the desktop [03:52] So whats your question kevin__ ? [03:52] my apologies [03:52] NP [03:53] Just want to know if there's a way to mod the power indicator to show bat power % [03:54] having a issue with cant find out how to change keyboardlayout in remote desktop from windows to ubuntu [03:54] ranger81 nice nick >p [03:54] also having one issue too. my networking gets disabled frequently. even if i restart using stop and start service, still no change. [03:54] wlan or cable he1s3nberg ? [03:54] wlan [03:55] Had same problem in previous release? [03:55] Prezident, no. [03:56] using WPA/WPA2? [03:56] WPA2 [03:56] Since 10.04 is EOS, does anyone have a recommendation for a distro that'll support the PowerPC and still run reasonably fast? [03:57] *EOL [03:57] wow powerpc, seriously? [03:57] hum.. 32 or 64 [03:57] !ppc [03:57] PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [03:57] LOL [03:57] Prezident, the entire networking gets disabled. i mean its unavailable for other wlan also. [03:57] Yep [03:57] Powerpc is bad ass [03:57] There is tons of problems he1s3nberg, whats your output on iwconfig wlan*? [03:57] I have a g4 [03:57] s/ass// [03:57] dual cpu [03:57] powermanagent is OFF? [03:57] fast as hell with linux [03:57] G4 here too [03:57] used to run slackintosh [03:58] was super fast [03:58] he1s3nberg: try sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off [03:58] Prezident, you mean to turn off power management ? [03:58] I have to get is back up and running. I am just going to put the most recent version of slackware [03:58] MorphOS runs like a scalded cat on the PPC but it costs $150 [03:58] try it. [03:59] then update kernel [03:59] Prezident, if it is, it already off in the iwconfig [03:59] but check with iwconfig wlan0 if its off already? [03:59] Alright, then we sorted out first thing. [03:59] kevin__: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/trusty/release/lubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-powerpc.iso [03:59] Prezident, yeah. its already off. [03:59] kevin__: no guarantees when it comes to performance, though [03:59] That is caused by laptops excessive efforts to save power. [04:00] Good night everyone [04:00] Does 14.04.1 have "the desktop"? [04:00] :) [04:00] Partition question, [04:00] kevin__: part please or join #ubuntu-offtopic. [04:00] kevin__: that ISO has the Lubuntu (LXDE) desktop [04:00] Does anyone know how to expand the size of my windows parition through Ubuntu? [04:00] Obvious you are a troll, seriouslyu. [04:00] Prezident, Yeah , i do think so. but before a couple of days i installed some package naming laptop power saving tools. i think it might caused the problems. and i removed it, [04:01] Stomp_: use Windows to resize NTFS [04:01] How often do you your conection drop? [04:01] every 30MIN, lower/higher? [04:01] Prezident, sometimes. i think the problem occurs when the system is kept idle for some time. [04:01] Im sure its power managment [04:01] Thanks Logan! [04:02] So if you are active it :never: drop connection? [04:02] kevin__: you got it :) [04:03] he1s3nberg: try touch /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/wireless [04:03] Prezident, the thing is , if i try to on the powermanagement, it wont turn on too. i tried it using powertop at early times when my laptop battery was getting drained too fast [04:03] Stomp_: Windows is better at resizing Windows disks [04:03] HOLY SHIT, THIS CHANNEL HAS 1650 NICKS! [04:03] yeah [04:03] OffbeatAdam: [04:04] like, its a light night okay? [04:04] Great he dropped finally. [04:04] would it affect the ubuntu partition, I've already unallocated some space [04:04] but how can I make sure widnows will take it [04:05] Prezident, in addition to that problem ,im havng shutting down or restart problems too. the running programs wont get stopped. [04:05] he1s3nberg: you can make a bash script wich will turn it off permanent. [04:05] type [04:05] #!/bin/sh [04:05] /sbin/iwconfig eth1 power off [04:05] wlan0 [04:05] sorry [04:06] Prezident, ok i will give a try on that one. do you have any idea what is causing the shutdown issue ? [04:06] All this issues came after the upgrade? [04:07] Stomp_: if the free space is unallocated by any partition and is next to the windows partition it shouldn't have a problem resizing into the unallocated region, you could also just setup the partition and use NTFS on it to have a space that is "shared" between windows and Linux for media or whatever [04:07] Prezident, not suddenly. the problems got showing off mainly after installing a cinnamon package, which i purged right after it. [04:08] Stomp_, The space right next to the windows partition needs to be unallocated is all. [04:08] On the partition map I have the sawp space for Ubuntu, then my actual Ubuntu partition, then the space I unallocated, and last the windows partition [04:09] oh you mean you want to move it back, yeah good luck with that [04:09] i'd backup, delete and recreate [04:09] It is not letting me combine them, it says that my current windows parition size is both the max and min allowed [04:09] Stomp_, You can't move the front of a windows install is all, it's brick [04:09] he1s3nberg: you got powermanagement-interface installed? [04:09] Stomp_: yeah not gonna work [04:09] Prezident, i dont know. how to check that ? [04:10] try purge it by apt-get purge powermanagement-interface [04:10] ok. [04:10] its not installed as default, wanna see if you got the packet installed. [04:10] I formated the unallocated spaced to ntfs but still it seems incompatible with the windows part [04:10] if it is, press N [04:10] type* [04:10] Prezident, it was not installed. tried the command. [04:11] Alright, one thing more to remove from "checking" list.. [04:11] Stomp_: yeah that's not possible [04:11] Prezident, HMM ?? [04:12] Im trying find what your package have installed for ya [04:12] Prezident, ok. what should i do next ? [04:12] since all this problems popped up from nowhere when you installed the package you purged [04:12] * Prezident thinking :) [04:12] Prezident, :) [04:12] what ya suggest? I don't want to delete the windows side, quite the opposite, I need to keep it and expand it [04:13] Prezident, the thing is , i dont have any idea from where it popped up. so i began thinking backwards, what all changes i made recently. and that was like i told u exact. [04:15] did you create the file in /etc/pm/sleep.d/wireless? [04:16] Prezident, no. [04:16] try [04:16] touch /etc/pm/sleep.d/wireless [04:16] Stomp_: did you go into disk management on the windows side to check if the new partition had a drive letter assigned/ [04:16] ? [04:16] did you create the bash script even? [04:16] Follow me now. [04:17] cd cd /etc/pm/power.d [04:17] I am on widnoes now [04:17] letter was D [04:17] sudo gedit/nano/vi wifi_pwr_off [04:17] put the bash script i wrote before ^ [04:17] but I just de-formated the space once again [04:17] #!/bin/sh [04:17] /sbin/iwconfig wlan0 power off [04:18] sudo chmod +x wifi_pwr_off [04:18] Im sorry, this need a restart. [04:18] Maybe its worth it. [04:18] Prezident, let me take a screenshot on the commands then. :-) [04:18] Come back and let me know if problem is solved with WIFI! I guess it will. [04:18] Stomp_, Really you should be in ##windows for this. [04:19] Prezident, ok. hope so. thank you . :) [04:19] I am on windows now [04:19] yw, i belive it will solve your wifi problem atleast.. What was next problem, laptop gets in sleep mode aswell? [04:19] Stomp_: got an external hard disk? [04:19] ##windows channel [04:19] yep [04:19] Prezident, no. the system wont shut down or restart . [04:20] Stomp_: look up clonezilla, backup the partition to an image file on the external, delete the partition, create the new one - restore. [04:20] What was the problem, my mind was had fully attention for the wlan issue :) [04:20] that should work [04:20] momjails [04:20] Prezident, the issue is, even if we shutdown or restart, there is no change occuring. sometimes the screen goes blank for a long time, but wont shut down. [04:21] But it seems something in your upgrade have been broken since you got so many issues, you got error message while you are using desktop aswell? [04:21] Prezident, there is an error report showing if i restart using the power button. [04:22] hey, how can i run a bash script when there's a notification? [04:22] Prezident, the upgrade was done at the time it released itself, but this issues started showing off very recently, say a 2-3 days back [04:22] Stomp_, Clonezilla likes to see the same partition to reinstall, I would just copy and use that partition rewritten ntfs and resized. [04:22] and i have a dual GPU in this laptop, intel/nvidia, how can i enable enhanced graphics on my nvidia gpu? [04:23] nano /etc/default/grub he1s3nberg [04:23] Prezident, what does it do actually ? [04:23] Find: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=what_it_stays_here? [04:23] opening a text file only [04:23] ok. [04:24] Should say: ="quiet splash" [04:24] try add [04:24] it says "quiet splash" [04:24] "quiet splash acpi=force" [04:24] Save! and then do update-grub [04:24] problem should be solved :) [04:25] how to save ? [04:25] used nano? [04:25] ctrl+x [04:25] then y > enter [04:25] or ctrl + x then enter [04:25] then y i belive :) [04:26] you see when you do ctrl+x [04:26] Prezident: ctrl + x, y, enter [04:26] how to update [04:26] ya, try now he1s3nberg problem must have been solved, im 99% sure this was the issue. [04:26] grub-update [04:27] Prezident, i did update-grub [04:27] And if you did the script it old you, both problem is solved.. I am sure. [04:27] it seems like totem doesn't modify the access time of the videos I watch, why is this? [04:27] Oki, great, check next time you reboot alls should be fine. No more blank screen. [04:27] Prezident, did every steps you told me.let me try rebooting [04:28] Good luck, please come back and tell me the result.. [04:28] Prezident, lemme have a look. thank you :) [04:28] yw [04:28] ok. i will be back. [04:28] hey all, I'm trying to compile a kernel for my system using "make localmodconfig", everything works except for decrypting my encrypted root drive. Any hints? [04:29] Thank you ReScO btw, not like i got everything in my head! ;) [04:33] what's the server room? [04:33] Hels3nberg should be back now if he succeed remove the black screen, its 5mins [04:33] #ubuntu-server jstrem [04:36] how can i prevent memory leaks in ubuntu 14 server [04:37] flukethought, you'll need to provide more detail. What application? Or is it system-wide perhaps? Basically, how do you know there's a memleak? [04:38] free99 [04:38] it's minecraft is the only thing i have running [04:39] so it's running on... openjdk or something right? Sorry I don't know a lot about minecraft [04:39] system is a proliant server ml110 g6 [04:39] yea [04:39] jdk headless [04:40] well... how do you know there's a leak? System eventually starts saying it's out of memory? [04:40] yes [04:40] looking at the logs [04:40] i see that a memory leak is detected before it has a kernal panic [04:41] if you can get some of the logs on pastebin I might be able to uncover something [04:41] make sure whatever you're pasting doesn't have sensitive info in it though === rwp_ is now known as rwp [04:42] p.s. can someone help me with my kernel issue? [04:43] anyone here use sabnzbd? [04:43] http://pastebin.com/WNmHyGLC [04:43] free99 [04:43] there u go i took the last bit of the log [04:44] I've been using it for a little while, just ported over from kwooty. For the first time tonight i had to auto-repair a file and sab said it couldn't find a par2 binary. I've been using multipar but I've been running it through wine. Any options? [04:45] flukethought, Lets start with the basics, you have a minecraft install from ubuntu repos or somewhere else? [04:46] lol else [04:46] it's a custom forge setup [04:47] sheesh man I had to help one of my friend's kids set up forge, minecraft is crazy to setup on windows [04:47] It's not that hard. [04:47] well, what mods you got? [04:48] Pretty easy to get going. [04:48] 200 [04:48] If you're into Pokémon you can play that pixelmon mod, pretty fun IMO [04:49] jp82191, you're right... I do sysadmin for a living, guess I was kind of surprised the process wasn't more straightforward for kids and such [04:49] Ah, gotcha [04:49] flukethought, so your server was working well until recently? [04:49] Yeah, it's kinda complicated for those who are just starting. === l2ksolkov is now known as ^L2 [04:50] nope [04:50] over the past 30 days [04:50] can't get it to run longer then a day [04:50] before memory leak === ^L2 is now known as l2ksolkov [04:51] flukethought, these guys are suggesting stuff is not getting handled properly by certain mods: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/support/server-support/1877325-ftb-server-memory-leak-anyone [04:51] granted that's FTB not forge, but.. [04:52] ftb is forge [04:53] Oh. Lol. Well, anyway if you don't want to disable modes, you can try enforcing a memory limit on the jdk system so the app is not allowed to take more memory than you specify [04:53] might crash the server app, but not the system. [04:53] how [04:54] it's called limits, /etc/security/limits.conf [04:54] man limits.conf [04:56] point me to a guide [04:58] flukethought, http://blog.mattandanne.org/2011/12/minecraft-server-setup-debian-squeeze.html?view=classic [04:58] you may want to learn how to edit the init script so that it will restart the minecraft server process automatically if it dies [05:00] flukethought, I'm hitting it. I hope this is enough info to help you out [05:00] no that perfect [05:00] dude u rock [05:00] sleep well [05:01] thanks man, and have fun [05:01] p.s. thanks everyone for the kernel compilation advice :P [05:03] hi guys i need help with my steelseries keyboard [05:04] Hi!

[08:02] pastebin.com/zX5R1utf Seveas [08:04] ok, raw partitions only, so you'll only need to grow the filesystem: sudo resize2fs /dev/sda1 [08:05] thecast: it has a rating of 'garbage' on the winw appdb, so I doubt it. [08:05] thecast: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=13717 [08:05] Seveas says "The filesystem is already 2780672 blocks long. Nothing to do!"

Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [11:49] The latest comment on that bug report says that 3.13.0-29 is fine, but since I'm using a later version, either the bug has reappeared or it wasn't really fixed. [11:49] cfhowlett: I linked an Ubuntu bug report. [11:50] I know Mint isn't supported here, but I thought I wasn't completely off-topic, since it also happens with Ubuntu. But sorry again if that isn't the case. [11:50] Hak5 did a video for creating usb installs and booting [11:50] bittyx-desktop, not to worry but [11:51] bittyx-desktop, "status = invalid"? what the heck does that mean? [11:52] hi [11:52] cfhowlett: It means the second last poster said that the bug was fixed in an update - it was present in 3.13.0-27, but not in 3.13.0-29. However, I have 3.13.0-37, so either the bug has reappeared, or it hasn't really been fixed in the first place. [11:52] bittyx-desktop, this report is from June .. have you updated Kernel since then? [11:52] cfhowlett: Nope, I just downloaded a fresh install. Is there a better place where I can report this kind of thing, since, as mentioned, it doesn't seem to be specific to Ubuntu? [11:53] Ohh, just found ##kernel - I'll try there. [11:53] bittyx-desktop, 14.04.1 is the current ubuntu version ... confirm. === derk0pf|NA is now known as derk0pf [11:54] Which kernel does 14.04.1 use? [11:54] Ie. which kernel does it ship with by default? [11:54] currently 3.13.0-40 [11:54] bittyx-desktop, IDK. I'm on ubuntustudio so ... different [11:54] bittyx-desktop: ship by default i dont know [11:55] EriC^^: Okay, thanks. [11:55] i think it's about 30 or something [11:55] for 14.04.1 [11:57] hello guys, i am having trouble with the clock display on my menu screen [11:57] any idea how to fix it? [11:57] bittyx-desktop: try boot it with certain kernel options, maybe it'll boot then update the kernel once it's installed [11:57] bittyx-desktop: what's the kernel panic about anyways [11:58] how do you create multiple users all at once [11:58] EriC^^: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1326216 this exact output [11:58] Launchpad bug 1326216 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel panic (kernel 3.13.0-27-generic) on ASUS UX31A" [High,Invalid] [11:58] Ahad, fix the question.

[12:19] sonda, for the OS only, yes. for your /hom and data ??? [12:19] I don't know if this counts as a tech issue. But I am trying to find some way (Hopfully easy) to maybe use a local server of some sort like the program Synergy does to share my sound between multiple PC's to one PC. All of which are running Ubuntu, one Ubutunu 14.04 LTS the other two Ubuntu 14.101 [12:19] 14.10 [12:19] for os 8G is sufficient right [12:19] i did just $XDG_="$HOME/.config", nothing more [12:20] The one I want to share it to has 14.10 [12:20] EriC^^: [12:20] ubnew, right. go for it. [12:20] turtleding: oh, no leading $ [12:20] turtleding: just XDG_="$HOME.." [12:20] cfhowlett : Thanks :) [12:20] Anyone know of a way to do that??\ [12:21] turtleding: use export XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config" if you want it available to subproceses [12:21] sonda, out of the box/plain vanilla ubuntu is *about* 8GB [12:21] EriC^^: sry, my failure. i meant without $ at the beginning [12:21] turtleding: oh ok, no idea [12:21] try export i guess [12:21] What? [12:21] the complete installation of 14.04 is how much [12:21] I feel like no one saw my massive message. xD [12:22] sonda: 6.4G [12:22] then keeping 20GB for ubuntu is enough I guess [12:22] EriC^^: export XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config" => echo XDG_CONFIG_HOME => XDG_CONFIG_HOME [12:23] turtleding: when you echo, you have to use the leading $ [12:23] echo $XDG_CONFIG_HOME [12:23] $ means variable [12:24] EriC^^: ah, now it recognized it. thanks a lot [12:24] I have 50 GB free in D drive out of which 30GB I want to keep for windows [12:24] no problem [12:26] what do you say eric?

[Undecided,Confirmed] [20:26] John_John_: chrome > settings > default browser on the bottom [20:26] i did that [20:27] no good [20:27] Ubuntu Desktop Edition 700 MHz processor (about Intel Celeron or better) 512 MiB RAM (system memory) . so my lappy dont meet them sorry to be a div [20:27] every time i open it asks to make default [20:27] Guest15076, like xangua said those are not the recommended only the minimum. i have myself tried something similar to what you are. i found that xubuntu worked better for an older machine like yours [20:27] paul__: 13.10 isn't a supported release anymore, you are aware of that? [20:27] Ah yes, well I'm not actually on 13.10 [20:27] John_John_: say yes and always make it default [20:27] i go to preffered apps and select it and after restart is unselected again [20:27] But that seems to be the same issue [20:28] paul__: ok, fair enough [20:28] I'm on the latest Xubuntu, but I think it's the same problem. [20:28] It seems to be a problem with libcurl-gnutls [20:28] Does anyone know how I can downgrade that package? [20:28] it run mint 16 ok and resoultion was ok and then 16 was out date to 17 and then went to pieces. lost res everything went massive [20:28] Guest15076, but there is also lubuntu and probably many more lightweight distros that will probably work better for you than base ubuntu [20:29] I've tried: sudo apt-get install libcurl3-gnutls=7.29.0 [20:29] albert: try sudo nvidia-xconfig --mode=1280x1024 [20:29] Xubuntu is very lightweight [20:30] xubuntu is it lightweight coz its got nothing like libreoffice and stuff mint 16 had it all run ok till 17 came out [20:30] EriC^^: === aron is now known as Guest64346 [20:31] No, it's leightweight because it uses the KDE desktop [20:31] EriC^^: unable to locate x config file. new file writtin to /etc/x11 [20:31] albert: great [20:31] albert: try to reboot [20:32] But Xubuntu uses XFCE which is even more lightweight [20:32] EriC^^: i just rebooted [20:32] KDE is light? [20:32] Compared to Unity ;) [20:32] albert: after running the nvidia-xconfig ? [20:32] ok brb [20:32] ok [20:33] can i install another desktop alongside xubuntu ? [20:33] aplolgizes ro everyone just new to linux and finding my way [20:33] John_John_: yes [20:33] Yes you can install loads of desktops [20:33] at the command line type [20:33] sudo apt-get install xfce4-desktop [20:33] And then logout [20:33] is there any good non buggy stable desktop for 14.04 around ? [20:34] Then on the login screen find the option to select XFCE [20:34] John_John_: gnome shell? [20:34] i dont know you tell me [20:34] theres 2 xubuntu [20:34] i prefer gnome s [20:34] yes [20:34] hi all; is there a way (by creating a custom package or hook or some exotic hack) that I can replace a package file with one of my own whenever there's an update? I want to replace /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kscreenlocker_greet with a shell script that runs xscreensaver [20:35] i have xubuntu now [20:35] xubuntu is awesome [20:35] how you liking xubuntu john john [20:35] John_John_, : currently trying unity, but i think i will switch back to gnome3. Gnome3 i really like how it changes my workflow. More able to concentrate at the job at hand. [20:36] i have xubuntu now and i like it [20:36] but this bug annoys me [20:36] i want to make default browser chrome [20:36] an di cant [20:36] /join programming [20:37] can i download linux xbuntu and use a program to get it onto usb dongle [20:38] can I change my ubuntu 14.04 to xubuntu without loosing any data? [20:38] Guest15076, yes. you'll probably like UNetbootin. and you probably want the 32bit(i386) xubuntu [20:38] Guest15076: yes, what OS are you on now? [20:38] or is that just a xfce install? [20:38] i second the choice of 32-bit [20:38] tombtc: intsall the xubuntu-desktop package [20:39] If you want xubuntu on a USB key you might as well look at Puppy Linux [20:39] ubuntu live mode coz ubuntu normal wont boot past login screen [20:39] k1l_: thanks [20:39] Guest15076: i suggest Lubuntu for old and slow hardware [20:40] xubuntu=xfce, Lubuntu=? [20:40] LXDE [20:40] !lubuntu [20:40] lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [20:40] any with fluxbox? [20:40] think i chuck the lappy out the window and get new one, but my pc is ok [20:40] You can install any of these desktops and switch between them [20:40] You do'nt have to insall everything [20:40] EriC^^: no luck :( [20:40] cool [20:41] John_John_: check the workaround https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/902661 [20:41] Launchpad bug 902661 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "Chromium unsets preferred webbrowser" [Undecided,Confirmed] [20:42] got u netbootin says need application to open it [20:43] albert: you could uninstall the driver [20:43] Hello guys [20:43] albert: and try the other driver from that ppa website === dino is now known as Guest70568 [20:43] xorg-edgers [20:43] if i installed ubuntu next to the windows, how do i get data from the windows ?

[20:43] what application do i need to open unetbootin [20:44] albert: sudo ./NVIDIA-.... --uninstall [20:44] EriC^^: i have no choice [20:44] Guest15076: if you're on ubuntu now, just use 'dd' to put the ISO onto a flash drive. it's simple. [20:44] whats dd [20:45] diskdump [20:45] EriC^^: Now is old one back [20:45] EriC^^: its uninstalled [20:45] ok [20:45] albert: maybe we should have uninstalled the old one? [20:45] where find a dump [20:45] Guest15076: use "usb disk creator" [20:45] EriC^^: makes some sence [20:46] Guest15076: or see this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-a-iso-to-a-usb-device [20:46] Guest15076: a program. open a terminal with your flash drive plugged in, run "sudo fdisk -l" to locate what /dev/sdX name of your flash drive - then run "sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=2M" [20:46] EriC^^: now if i reboot i have no driver ? [20:46] ugh the inaccurate use of 'burn' within a flash drive context, how irritatingly amateurish [20:46] albert: type sudo lshw -C video | grep driver [20:46] i can do it on windows 7, but lost on here [20:47] Guest15076: on ubuntu? [20:47] EriC^^: bunch of i/o errors [20:48] on ubuntu live mode now yeah [20:48] EriC^^, thanks :))) [20:48] Guest15076: you cant make a new live system on the usb you are just using [20:48] i solved it :) [20:49] what font do you use for development ? [20:49] John_John_: great! :) [20:49] thanks again :) [20:49] Guest15076: well i did try to ask what your host OS is for making up this flash drive but you didn't respond... so which is it? [20:49] albert: try dpkg -l | grep nvidia [20:49] want to download xubuntu while in ubuntu live mode [20:49] Guest15076: no that's not wise [20:50] Guest15076: i still suggest lubuntu for your old machine [20:50] EriC^^: ok [20:50] any fonts that have good quality in xubuntu ? like consolas or monaco ? [20:50] EriC^^: shows a driver and settings from ubuntu i believw [20:51] John_John_, All these desktops have the same repo access tons of fonts [20:51] John_John_: no idea [20:51] albert: does the nvidia driver show up? [20:51] with a "ii" at the start? [20:52] EriC^^: yes [20:52] albert: try sudo apt-get purge nvidia-* [20:53] how do you create a text file called nathans file? it needs to have a space between nathans and file [20:53] EriC^^: its removing DKMS modules [20:53] nathan_: touch nathans\ file [20:54] EriC^^: all done [20:54] cheers [20:54] albert: ok [20:54] if i upgraded my ram to say 2gig would it run ubuntu [20:54] but with a sis graphics card my res still be poor [20:54] albert: we can try the xorg-edgers ppa [20:55] EriC^^: sure lets try i guess [20:55] ok [20:55] Guest15076: honestly i would throw that thing away. life is too short. [20:55] type sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa [20:55] the sis thing yeah not the best [20:57] does ubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu need security [20:57] Guest15076: sis was never supported that well when it was new. and its not getting better since most of that hardware is "old" now and not used that much anymore. with some intel, nvidia cards you would have more luck now [20:57] Guest15076: no the whole thing is terrible. SiS graphics is the worst, yes [20:57] Guest15076: lubuntu is made for old and slow hardware. give it a try [20:57] my pc got nvidia in it [20:58] EriC^^: ok thats done [20:58] i'm having some pretty annoying issues with my dual-monitor setup, trying to get ubuntu to treat my right-hand side screen as the primary... Xorg always sets the botton left corner of the left-hand screen to position 0x0, and it causes all sorts of annoyances like Ubuntu always putting the desktop icons on my left screen. the most i've been able to achieve is to get the unity panel to appear on my right [20:58] screen [20:58] ok, type sudo apt-get update [20:58] does these ubuntu, xbuntu, lubuntu need security [20:58] Guest15076: rephrase please [20:59] does anybody know how i would go about submitting a bug report for that? Xorg doesn't seem to accept negative offsets (to allow me to set the corner of the right-hand screen to 0x0), so i'm not sure which ubuntu package i would report the bug for (lightdm? ubuntu-desktop?) [20:59] EriC^^: done [20:59] do these ubuntu, xbuntu, lubuntu need security like anti virus and firewall programs [20:59] ok type sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings [21:00] Guest15076: no. not like windows. [21:00] !antivirus [21:00] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [21:00] thank u, what bout firewalls [21:01] Guest15076: dont need that. its more important what programs you run. [21:01] dont run wine [21:01] EriC^^: it failed [21:01] albert: what'd it say? [21:02] If I want to put Ubuntu on a USB drive (for installation purposes), which filesystem should the drive use? FAT32? [21:02] bittyx-desktop: that doesnt matter [21:03] thanks to everyone [21:03] EriC^^: something about wine and some packages have not been created [21:03] Hello, anyone knows if there is a way to use an ipod as a flash drive? [21:03] bittyx-desktop: you need to "burn" it onto a usb. that will erase the filesystem anyway [21:03] albert: try sudo apt-get -f install [21:03] kokut: for just the odd file, or? [21:03] which model? [21:03] albert: please pastebin the errors [21:03] trying figure out how to get it to usb now [21:04] daftykins: i need to find a way to trick another device into "thinking" it is a USB flash drive [21:04] kokut: what? why? [21:04] daftykins: ipod nano 6th gen [21:04] k1l_: Ah, okay, thanks. [21:04] daftykins: its something to plug to an old TV it only accepts USB flash drives and i dont have a flash drive but i do have an old ipod [21:05] EriC^^: it said 0 upgraded 26 not updated [21:05] kokut: would it not have been easier to plug it in and find out, than ask? :) [21:05] cant i open u netbootin in live mode [21:05] daftykins: what you mean [21:05] Guest15076: you dont need unetbootin [21:05] albert: try sudo apt-get upgrade [21:05] Guest15076: for the third and final time, what is your host OS? don't use a live session [21:05] Guest15076: do you have a 2nd usb drive? [21:05] i typed pastebin again how do kill it [21:05] ctrl+c [21:06] xp and ubuntu [21:06] albert: ctrl+c [21:06] ok ok daft [21:06] Guest15076: do you have a 2nd usb drive?

[21:16] Ilhami: LXDE [21:16] !lubuntu | Ilhami [21:16] LXDE ok [21:16] Ilhami: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [21:16] thanks [21:16] sudo apt-get install lxde? [21:17] Ilhami: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop [21:17] ok and should I remove unity ? or will it just overwrite? [21:17] Don't remove anything until after you get into lxde [21:17] www.pastebin.com/nXjmpMKu [21:17] is asking about socat too general a linux question for this channel? [21:18] NegativeFlare aaah now I remember.. :) sorry [21:18] I dont have to remove it [21:18] I'm running ubuntu which is why I came here [21:18] JustEnki: never heard of it but better to find a channel for whatever context that's in, or a channel for it itself if one exists [21:19] JustEnki: you can try, might also try #ubuntu-server. My guess is ##linux will have more people familiar with socat [21:20] EriC^^: any ideas? [21:20] okay thanks [21:20] did you try the nvidia-331? [21:20] EriC^^: how? i cant goto web [21:21] sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 [21:22] you sure that's the right one? [21:22] be careful I'd say.

[21:23] EriC^^: ouch [21:23] albert: i've no idea when it comes to nvidia drivers :D [21:23] i saw that nvidia-current was 304 [21:24] and the one from nvidia.com you tried earlier is older than it [21:24] EriC^^: if we could get back the way it was would be good [21:24] i think the 331 is the latest [21:24] and it should support your card [21:24] hold on [21:25] EriC^^: or i will just reinstall lol [21:25] k [21:25] what is your graphics card? [21:26] Ilhami: geforce 6200 le [21:27] albert, do you know nvidia has a website with all drivers for your graphics card ?

[21:35] stop what? [21:35] Ilhami: dont tell users to use sudo where its not needed at all. [21:35] will it kill him? [21:36] Ilhami: you spoil the whole idea of sudo if you tell users to use it all the time. yes that will get the users into trouble [21:36] whatever [21:37] kolossen, you could also try "dmesg | grep Blue" [21:37] yo [21:40] Hello, is there a way to make an ipod act exactly as an USB flash drive?

[22:41] oh try [22:41] let me check [22:42] malinus: any quirks we should know about the specification of this system? or the spec at all for that matter :> [22:42] daftykins: "try" seems to work just fine. [22:43] excellent, give the installer a shot from there [22:43] daftykins: thanks. (stupid of not even thinking about that, doh) [22:44] well you'd be forgiven for thinking 'install' should work just the same, if not easier from lower overhead [22:44] so that's a quirky one indeed [22:45] daftykins: I'm installing using the integrated graphics, since the free nvidia drivers that come with the live/installer ubuntu don't support my chipset (maxwell - gtx 750ti, black screen). No idea if it has something to do with that? [22:46] Hi guys how install driver or printer [22:46] malinus: yeah likely nouveau would choke on that card. not from the intel though, nah. you could probably have just booted with nomodeset, no? [22:46] !nomodeset [22:46] A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen.

[22:51] daftykins, its the one from the repo im assuming universal since I didn't add a ppa for it. Skype version 4.3.0.37 [22:51] malinus: i don't think your card is supported by any repo ones, so it would either be a manual download or xorg-edgers PPA [22:51] l0rdn1x: default ubuntu repos? not aware of there being one [22:52] okay, thanks [22:52] daftykins: if I knew this card would be such a pain with linux, I would never have bought it :(. hehe [22:52] daftykins, yeah I had to check-mark the universal repo in the package manager. [22:52] malinus: i wouldn't worry, with time it'll change [22:53] l0rdn1x: ah, well likely that thing is ancient and shouldn't be bothered with [22:53] daftykins, where can I get this working .deb ? [22:53] oh i have no idea about whether it's working :) [22:53] ah ok [22:53] yeah, it's just that the chipset does so weired on-hardware authorization of drivers or some similar woodo. [22:53] just skype.com [22:53] malinus: that seems unlikley [22:53] I don't really use skype, but I have one friend that only uses skype I'm sure you know how that goes lol [22:54] !amd | ikonia [22:54] *sigh* [22:54] ? [22:54] you didn't create it yet [22:55] ikonia: I read it on the nouveau mailing list I think. That's why it still isn't supported, while much newer cards already are. [22:55] daftykins: I've not had chance [22:55] malinus: did it happen to have any talk of 9xx cards too? i've not seen anyone on here try to run one yet but it's an even newer maxwell of course [22:57] nope sorry, I just stumbled on it while investigating. didn't even read it in details, not that it would have help me ;P. [22:57] no problem. running the install right now? [22:57] yeah [22:58] my HDMI monitor show 'cable not connected' even after i see it in xrandr and type 'xrandr --auto'. any idea?

It saves time actually [23:24] oerheks there is no way to add it :` [23:24] owen1: xorg.conf != log ;) [23:24] the initial install will be a bit slower [23:24] but you wont have to manually install any updates later [23:24] though bear in mind updates during install breaks things for some :P === rigor789 is now known as rigor789|away [23:25] you can just walk away during the install, have a cup of tea and return to a freshly installed system [23:25] daftykins: I've had systems with automatic upgrades break. But never had any problems with downloading updates during instalation [23:25] daftykins: interesting! so how can i compare 2 states of this log? it's not a static file [23:26] owen1: copy it to ~ when it doesn't work and when it does. [23:26] Airbander, i see that yours is not included, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CanonCaptDrv190 [23:26] daftykins: ok. i'll do that and report back. thanks! [23:26] np [23:26] ok thank u === rigor789|away is now known as rigor789 [23:26] thanks dude for help [23:27] howdy folks [23:27] i had install open now its disapeared where to [23:27] user1, install for what? [23:27] user1: alt+tab [23:27] any knows what theme is that screenshoot? [23:27] http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/news2/Canonical-Starts-Talking-About-Convergence-and-Ubuntu-14-10-Features-437648-3.jpg [23:27] abstrakt: got a question? [23:28] guys any one can help me to install my printer plz ? canon LPB-6020 [23:28] daftykins, I do, yes [23:28] AND THANKS [23:28] what's the maximum/largest (within reason, how do define "reason" I don't exactly know) likely size that a root partition would take up [23:28] NEEEEED HELP TO INSTALL THIS LBP-6020 [23:28] daftykins: thanks, sounds like docker ought to update the docs [23:28] Airbander: keep repeating and using caps and you'll be ignored. === rigor789 is now known as rigor789|away [23:28] Airbander: you'll do better if you just ask for help without the silly NEEEEEEED HELP and typing in caps [23:29] Anyone here using Thinkpad Yoga? Or perhaps Yoga 3 Pro? [23:29] like if I installed all the software from the officially sanctioned repos from ubuntu (not necessarily from 3rd party PPAs) [23:29] Airbander: just explain your problem clearly and calmly [23:29] Airbander: if someone can help, they will [23:29] lol [23:29] abstrakt: but that's unlikely. [23:29] i.e. where will I strike a good balance between leaving a lot of headroom on / [23:29] and not wasting space [23:29] Cervol: looks like it's just a concept, not an actual theme http://thetechnotoast.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-Flat-UI-Concept-445281381 [23:29] in terms of partition sizing [23:29] they saw that when i asked they didnt nice [23:29] Kazaii: doubt it. thinking of buying one? [23:29] Indeed. I had a quick hands on with the Thinkpad Yoga. It felt great. [23:30] Airbander: no-one has not been nice to you [23:30] Airbander: if they can help, they will [23:30] ikonia :D [23:30] i didnt say that [23:30] like is 50G too much for a root partition? [23:30] Kazaii: the Yoga 3 Pro seems to have some design issues which cause it to thermally throttle the new intel broadwell chip, wouldn't recommend buying one until they fix it [23:30] is 10G too little? [23:30] abstrakt: An abstract question, mine: /dev/sda1 4.7G 1.8G 2.8G 39% / ; Works well for MY use case . [23:30] abstrakt: 20-40GB might be a happy medium for a desktop [23:31] daftykins: Thanks! Good to know. :) [23:31] Bashing-om, er, which partitions are which sizes on that? [23:31] abstrakt: 50 is ok, I have 20 [23:31] all I see is 3 different gig sizes [23:31] abstrakt: That is my '/' partition . [23:31] abstrakt: size, used, free (or size, free, used) :P [23:31] ah, ok [23:32] Bashing-om, that seems a bit small, is that a server? [23:32] ok guys have a good day [23:32] virtualbox seems to recommend approx a 12G entire disk size when installing a linux based virtual machine [23:32] it was either 12 or 15 I think [23:32] abstrakt: it's not a blank and white question [23:32] abstrakt: it really depends on your needs and how you like to work, [23:32] it's personal to each person/their setup [23:32] apply thought behind it, and you'll be fine [23:33] abstrakt: It is an extension of what was a server ..Like I advise, works well for my use case .. How you use your system will be the dtermining factor of how larrgw to make '/' . [23:33] but of course it's a moot query because you can always backup and change things ;) [23:33] what 'version' is 'trusty' ? [23:33] luminous: 14.04 [23:33] daftykins, can, but that takes considerable time, so I'd like to get it right this time around [23:33] daftykins: so if I have trusty lts kernel on 12.04, I have the kernel from 14.04 on 12.04? [23:33] I'm mostly desktop oriented [23:34] workstation, that is [23:34] luminous: yes you are running the trusty HWE (hardware enablement stack) [23:34] !hwe [23:34] On August 7, 2014, Ubuntu 12.04.5 will deliver the kernel and graphics stack from 14.04. At that time, security updates and bug fixes for older hardware enablement stacks will cease. Users of older hardware enablement stacks are encouraged to update to the 12.04.5 hardware enablement stack or upgrade to 14.04. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL for further details. [23:34] abstrakt: then plan well. [23:34] I would prefer to have headroom for lots of software install if need be, is there any way to get a calculated size for how much space a given set of packages will take up? [23:34] it's like a half-migration to 14.04, interesting [23:34] forced [23:34] no it's not forced at all [23:35] you can also be on 3.2.x with precise (12.04) [23:35] So, I've been using Linux Mint for a couple of years now, with the main reason being Cinnamon. However, it has never occurred to me that I could use Cinnamon with Ubuntu, so after a bit of Googling, it seems that this is pretty easy to accomplish. In fact, it can be installed with a one-liner. Has anyone done this, and does everything work correctly? [23:35] I know pretty much what I'll have on there, I think the biggest space hogs are really the DEs like GNOME/KDE/Unity etc [23:35] a.) LTS HWE is not forced b.) it's not a migration at all [23:35] I'm having some random issues with Mint and I can't bother to research them anymore, so I'd like to switch to Ubuntu. [23:35] Hi, sorry for the repeat, but I had to step away for a while... [23:35] I'm having some trouble with my apt-get sources... starting with "Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com trusty/main armhf Packages", but "grep -r armhf /etc/apt returns nothing. [23:35] can't think of any other specific package that is likely to take up tons of space [23:35] My main worry is - will Cinnamon work okay with Ubuntu. [23:35] aside from the postgres db but that'll go in /var anyway [23:35] bittyx-desktop: depends where you get it from [23:36] either way, trusty is making docker install instructions not make any sense [23:36] bittyx-desktop, Cinnamon is in the 14.10 repos try the whole OS and decide for yourself. [23:36] ikonia: So there's nothing like an official Cinnamon build for Ubuntu? [23:36] luminous: no it's not [23:36] luminous: trusty has no impact on dockers instructions [23:36] ikonia: how are you supposed to install dockeer? http://docs.docker.com/installation/ubuntulinux/#ubuntu-precise-1204-lts-64-bit [23:36] bubbasaures: If I switch, it's gonna be to 14.04 because LTS. [23:36] ikonia: I'm trying to say that these instruction ^^ make less sense when you see trusty in 12.04 [23:37] luminous: i don't see how you got so stuck. [23:37] luminous: those documents are actually FOR the HWE you are using [23:37] bubbasaures: Can I still use Cinnamon with 14.04? [23:37] so, does anyone know how to see what the total size of e.g. the base install is? [23:37] call me stupid, but I'm not connecting the dots here [23:37] bittyx-desktop: Cinnamon desktop is available in 14.10's repository, If it did not work well with the majority of configuations; it would neot be there. [23:37] and or ideally find a calculated size by listing what packages you want? [23:37] abstrakt: 2GB [23:37] sorry, please enlighten me [23:37] abstrakt: are you talking about a default one, or that silly idea of installing every package? :P [23:37] abstrakt: but that is not usable as a disk size [23:37] daftykins:(I guess you might want to hear some feedback from the "maxwell installation"). After installing the non-free nvidia drivers from their website, everything just works. Before installing the drivers I was actually able to boot by giving grub the "text" and "nomodeset" settings, no idea why it didn't work with the install. [23:37] daftykins, not the idea of every package [23:38] bittyx-desktop, Yes from a ppa, however we don't technically support ppa's here they are 3rd party [23:38] malinus: excellent! glad it worked out :) [23:38] Bashing-om: Sorry, I don't really know much about the release processes of various distros and DEs, though what you say sounds reasonable. [23:38] daftykins, the idea of listing out the packages I will probably use and finding out what the total disk size of them would be [23:38] luminous: it actually says what to do if you are using the HWE and says "refer to note 5 under each version" [23:38] abstrakt: wow, just pick a size and install the damn thing :P [23:38] ikonia: ok, that would make more sense to me if I understood what HWE meant, and you do, so that makes sense [23:38] bubbasaures: So if I want Ubuntu+Cinnamon, I either have to go for a non-LTS release, or a non-supported combination? [23:39] daftykins, why, is that an unreasonable option? [23:39] seems reasonable to me [23:39] abstrakt: use lvm so the question doesn't matter [23:39] if it doesn't exist then that's fine [23:39] abstrakt: sounds like an utter waste of time to me yep :) [23:39] bittyx-desktop: Keep in mind, 3rd party software is NOT supported here; but there is a PPA to install Cinnamon on 14.04 . [23:39] bittyx-desktop, Until another longterm and cinnamon is in it's repos yes. [23:39] daftykins, that's not really a "reason why" but, that's fine [23:39] Bashing-om: Understood, bubbasaures already mentioned that. [23:39] sounds like this doesn't really exist [23:40] bubbasaures, Bashing-om: Thank you both. [23:40] there's gotta be a package db I could query though, right? [23:40] ikonia: so yea, that still doesn't tell me what to do [23:40] abstrakt: seriously, a base install is <3GB, so why not just do 15GB+ and get on with life? [23:40] abstrakt: are you somehow limited with disk space? help us out with understanding here :) [23:40] bittyx-desktop, Mate is in 14.04 however, just info. [23:41] ikonia: as a user who wants to install docker on ubuntu 12.04, seeing trusty in apt-get upgrade prior to starting this, I am confused seeing the docs only focus on raring [23:41] in fact there's a whole MATE ediion of ubuntu now! [23:41] or packages with raring in it [23:41] daftykins, aight, well I guess that assuages some of my curiosity knowing a base install is less than 3G [23:41] luminous: luminous it's not confusing, you are on raring [23:41] luminous: there is no confusion on that at all [23:41] I'm confused about how to install docker correctly so it works [23:42] why is that not clear? [23:42] I don't suppose there's a full 15G worth of other software that I would install, so I suppose 20G should be a reasonable size [23:42] luminous: it is clear [23:42] abstrakt: yep, unless you're into development of some kind. [23:42] well, I am [23:42] but again, databases would go on /var anyway [23:42] abstrakt: make /home or other partitions huge [23:42] luminous: lsb_release -d #gives you what? [23:42] development is not databases [23:43] luminous, yeah I intend to make /home as large as possible [23:43] bubbasaures: I've never tried it, but looking at the screenshots, it does look awfully similar to how I setup Cinnamon, ie. an application taskbar (with a workspace switcher widget) on the bottom, and a launcher+bunch of widgets on top. Any ideas on how customizable it is? [23:43] k1l: 12.04.5 LTS [23:43] luminous: "uname -r" [23:43] hence I was wondering how to calculate a reasonable minimum size for a root partition [23:43] it's 12.04 with the LTW HWE [23:43] I thought thi shad been established [23:43] daftykins: 3.13.0-39-generic [23:43] Sorry if my questions seem trivial, I've never really researched this stuff too much. [23:43] so did i, yet you guys are spinning it out for a ways [23:43] luminous: you can install backported kernels with the hardware enablement stack [23:43] luminous: follow the trusty instructions, job done? [23:44] luminous: so where is the actual issue? [23:44] abstrakt: As you know I do separate partitions, my '/var/ : /dev/sda8 4.7G 874M 3.6G 20% /var ; again, works well for my use case. [23:44] k1l: i'm trying to focus on docker, not kernels [23:44] bittyx-desktop, Not really, never used it longterm, must be fairly tweak-able, [23:44] he's installed 12.04.5 - which comes with HWE kernel by default [23:44] it even says it in the documentation that he's been linked to [23:44] luminous: so where is the issue? [23:44] Any idea why my x86_64 machine is trying to find armhf packages when I run "apt-get update"? [23:44] hence why I'm not sure why there is confusion, this is all clearly detailed in the documentation that the install is referencing [23:44] Where should I look? I don't see anything in /etc/apt. [23:45] bubbasaures: Cool, thanks, I'll look into it. It might just do the trick! [23:45] wpd_: nope, what've you done to it? :P /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ [23:45] wpd_: pastebin an apt-get update [23:45] wpd_: please run "sudo apt-get update" and pastebin the output please. [23:46] wpd_: @ places to look; -> cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list , tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* <- . [23:46] k1l: knowing what exactly to do to install docker on this host. daftykins is saying I am to follow the docker instructions for trusty.. http://docs.docker.com/installation/ubuntulinux/#ubuntu-trusty-1404-lts-64-bit [23:46] wpd_, you said while ago you had installed some arm development stuff ? [23:46] luminous: the docker instructions tell you what to do, and link you to the HWE docs that explain how your HWE system is configured/it's requirements [23:46] Can USB hubs for windows be sued without problems for ubuntu? [23:46] Actually, it was installed on my behalf by some sort of automated installation script. I wasn't happy. [23:47] kolossen: it really depends on if they have a propritary chipset in [23:47] kolossen: normally you can use them without issue [23:48] wpd_: please follow the instructions 3 of us have given. [23:48] Whenever I run OpenSpades, it produces the error: "Failed to dlload 'libopenal.so':/usr/local/games//libopenal.so: cannot read file daya: is a directory"- anyone understand it? (I have libopenal1 installed, too.) [23:49] Hi all, thanks for the tips. pastebin is at http://pastebin.com/1vHg6i8N [23:49] ikonia thanks [23:49] jadedspades: you've installed a game from an external resource that expects the library libopenal.so to exist in /usr/local/games - it does not exist so is having an error [23:50] Should I ln the location of libopenal.so to where it expects it to be? [23:50] oops [23:50] wpd_: install "pastebinit" then run "pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list" and "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | pastebinit" [23:50] wpd_: 16.Hit http://packages.ros.org trusty/main armhf Packages [23:50] luminous: follow the regular 12.04 howto but skip the kernel upgrade things since you already have that done [23:50] wpd_: there you go [23:50] daftykins: cable not connected: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9321945 works: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9321946. Here is what I remember doing: I switched to unity (normaly I am on i3), turned off the monitor (cable still connected), run 'xrandr --output HDMI2 --auto --above eDP1', turned on the monitor, and it works. [23:50] wpd_: also a ppa too 24.Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty/main armhf Packages [23:51] ikonia: Where is that ppa specified? I can't find it in /etc/apt/* [23:51] /etc/apt/* is not a directory [23:51] it will either be in your sources.list or the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory [23:51] night... [23:52] ikonia: I agree, but "grep -r armhf /etc/apt" doesn't show it. [23:52] wpd_: don't grep [23:52] wpd_: look in the files [23:53] Is there a command I can use to reboot into a specific grub entry? [23:54] teaearlgraycold: change the "default" value [23:55] ikonia, I guess that could work. Was hoping for an in-persistent solution though === Joshua^Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis_i [23:55] ikonia: ok, I'm looking in the files and seeing various references to ppa.launchpad.net. Which one is pulling in the armhf stuff? How could I tell? [23:58] daftykins: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/9322063/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/9322064/ [23:59] wpd_: the ros... stuff. you're going to want to look up the proper commands for removing a PPA though
