[00:00] <HerrBanano> anyway, squinty bubbasaures thanks for your input. i'll look into it :)
[00:01] <squinty> HerrBanano:  yw   good luck :)
[00:02] <bigbluebutterfli> any one here
[00:02] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: consider Xubuntu if you want to salvage it in terms of performance, also I'm running Gnome, it's not super light weight but I think slightly lighter than Unity
[00:03] <bigbluebutterfli> whats this about
[00:03] <bubbasaures> bigbluebutterfli, Ubuntu support.
[00:03] <bigbluebutterfli> or ok
[00:03] <bigbluebutterfli> kool
[00:03] <wafflej0ck> !ot | bigbluebutterfli
[00:03] <bigbluebutterfli> im 10.14
[00:03] <diphtherial> hey, so i've just installed ubuntu 14.10 on an asus zenbook ux303ln. the touchpad's really weird, e.g. the cursor slides around while you're trying to click, making it nearly unusable
[00:03] <wafflej0ck> bigbluebutterfli: if you don't have a support topic join the offtopic channel to just chat
[00:03] <diphtherial> are there better drivers than what come with the OS for asus laptops?
[00:04] <john_doe_jr> I need to generate a UUID that is only 23 characters long…how would  I do that?
[00:04] <wafflej0ck> bigbluebutterfli: you mean 14.10 I imagine?
[00:04] <bubbasaures> bigbluebutterfli, Is that 14.10, try to lay off the enter and state your support issue.
[00:04] <bigbluebutterfli> how can i i get to use nautlus perminently
[00:05] <Ben64> bigbluebutterfli: explain
[00:05] <HerrBanano> wafflej0ck: my main issue is that since i upgraded to 14.04 my fan is running 24/7 with only one app open, which happens only on unity.
[00:06] <Shogoot> _MMM_
[00:06] <HerrBanano> main advice should probably be upgrade your damn hardware but i don't have the money to do that right now :)
[00:06] <bubbasaures> HerrBanano, What is the computer and model.
[00:06] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: there are some packages out there for power management for intel that may help... can't recall the name off hand
[00:07] <HerrBanano> CPU T2250 @ 1.73GHz × 2
[00:07] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: think this is what I'm thinking of "thermald" http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/prevent-your-laptop-from-overheating.html but don't think I used the PPA to get it
[00:07] <HerrBanano> 2gb RAM
[00:08] <Ben64> HerrBanano: maybe don't use unity then? or use unity 2d
[00:09] <hoouse> Hello all. I have been trying to be able to change workspaces with the mouse. I used to be able to simply slide the mouse and when it hit the edge it went into the next workspace. No longer. I tried changing the setting in Settings - window manager - advanced - second setting. I'm using Xubuntu 14.04.
[00:09] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: yeah given the hardware I'd go with something lighter like XFCE or maybe give LXDE or LXQt a shot
[00:10] <HerrBanano> Ben64, that's what i was trying to change. wafflej0ck ty
[00:11] <HerrBanano> unrelated, any way to hide join/quit on freenode webchat?
[00:12] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: depends on the webchat, I use Quassel, think XChat will let you hide them too though
[00:12] <HerrBanano> xchat does
[00:13] <HerrBanano> nvm, i'll try some suggestions you gave me and join via xchat after reboot. thanks.
[00:13] <HerrBanano> brb
[00:13] <wafflej0ck> HerrBanano: np good luck
[00:13] <auscompgeek> uhh, qwebirc does let you do that
[00:13] <auscompgeek> it's in the options
[00:14] <auscompgeek> Ben64: unity 2d? there's no such thing
[00:15] <Ben64> oh, well it used to
[00:18] <BTJustice> I am trying to create some gpg keys.  I am new at this.  I have them created, but I had to do every command as sudo since not doing so kept displaying errors in terminal.  Is that the right way?  Also, as a user, do I need to be able to access /home/ME/.gnupg ?  I have to open Seahorse as sudo using terminal to see them.
[00:20] <Ben64> BTJustice: you should not have to do that as sudo
[00:20] <Banano> gnome fallback seems to make a huge difference already
[00:20] <Ben64> BTJustice: and you probably shouldn't be running seahorse (or any gui application!) with sudo
[00:23] <Bashing-om> BTJustice: ^^^, for reference: ls -al .gnupg .. All files are ownned and grouped by "you" .
[00:24] <BTJustice> So should I revoke the keys as sudo then recreate new ones as a regular user?
[00:25] <Ben64> you should probably stop using sudo and fix the files/folders you messed up in your home directory
[00:25] <Ben64> although, that would require a little bit of sudo
[00:25] <BTJustice> I haven't changed any permissions.
[00:25] <Ben64> by using sudo on graphical applications, you sure have
[00:26] <Ben64> BTJustice: pastebin the output of.... "ls -ld  ./ .gnupg/ .gnupg/*"
[00:27] <BTJustice> I didn;t create anyhting as sudo using graphic apps.
[00:27] <BTJustice> http://pastebin.com/AsXjndmJ
[00:29] <Ben64> BTJustice: see, root shouldn't own that folder
[00:30] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: try:   sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/.gnupg/
[00:30] <BTJustice> Ben64: This is what I did: I wanted ot encrypt some email so I tried ot make some keys using gpg in terminal.  I noticed commands where having errors so I ran them all as sudo.  I guess sometime before all this that folder must have been created for root right?
[00:31] <Ben64> BTJustice: you really need to be more careful with sudo
[00:36] <BTJustice> http://pastebin.com/ibzEa4za
[00:36] <jwash> can someone help me figure out a permission problem? I use deluge to download a ubuntu iso via bit torrent, I copy it to a non-internet computer via samba, then i want to delete it. i can't delete it because of permissions, untill i chmod -r 777 the directory. any ideas
[00:36] <BTJustice> Should I take ownership of the files within there?
[00:37] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: i made a typo try:   sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME.gnupg/
[00:37] <LinuxGold> hi Chuck norris
[00:37] <Chuck_Norris> Aloja LinuxGold
[00:38] <Chuck_Norris> another typo (time to go to bed) aloha*
[00:38] <home> выполните код убунту..... доверенный дистрибутив
[00:38] <Chuck_Norris> !ru | home
[00:38] <BTJustice> Chuck_Norris: That didn;t work either.  Did you mean 'sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/.gnupg/' instead?
[00:38] <Prezident> Нет России здесь, #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:39] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: well, try: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/$USER/.gnupg/
[00:39] <LinuxGold> $HOME/.gnupg
[00:39] <LinuxGold> lol
[00:39] <LinuxGold> yeah
[00:39] <BTJustice> It worked.
[00:40] <BTJustice> $HOME/.gnupg
[00:40] <SuperEddy> SUPEREDDY HAS ARRIVED!
[00:40] <LinuxGold> hi SuperEddy
[00:41] <SuperEddy> HFSPLUS IS REVEALED?
[00:41] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: so now you can use gpg without sudo ?
[00:42] <SuperEddy> !ops | waaaaaaaaaaaaa
[00:42] <sloantothebone> what's the emergency???
[00:42] <BTJustice> I can view them in seahorse without running it as sudo.
[00:43] <BTJustice> Is there a gpg command I can try that will not mess up anything?
[00:45] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: sry what do you wanna try out?
[00:45] <Chuck_Norris> wait a second, i'll scrowl up
[00:46] <BTJustice> Is there a gpg command I can try that will not mess up anything?
[00:47] <Chuck_Norris> oh! do you wanna send encrypted mails?
[00:47] <BTJustice> Yes.
[00:47] <BTJustice> For work.
[00:51] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: mmm... well idk, i meant in a professional way idk, i just used a couple of time some cloud based services (wich are not a professional way :P) but never try that out, generating pub keys with gpg and stuff let see if i can find a guide -.-
[00:51] <LinuxGold> Oh Jedi Master...
[00:52] <bashful> Most of the application can show nicely formatted notification on events that appear on top right corner of the screen. I'm about to write a bash script that will do fairy long processing in the background and I really want to know when it is finished. How can I show that nice notification from a bash script? i am using stock ubuntu 12.04 and i don't want to have to download anything.
[00:54] <beefer> Hey, anyone running Borderlands:The presequel on Ubuntu?
[00:55] <BTJustice> Chuck_norris:  I used this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto
[00:55] <wally777> .
[00:55] <bubbasaures> beefer, what is your end goal?
[00:56] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice:  and this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/GPGMigration
[00:56] <beefer> I cannot connect to anyone's game.  I assume it's a problem between my linux box and Windows
[00:57] <beefer> Bubbasaures: I just want to see if I can connect to a game with someone else running Linux
[00:58] <claudio> Hi
[00:58] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: and what is the command that mess up things
[00:58] <bubbasaures> thanks never run games myself, we just deal with actualities to help.
[00:59] <BTJustice> Chuck_Norris: I was just starting out making as the commands say and i noticed errors so I started again with sudo in front of them.
[00:59] <beefer> bubbasaures: thanks anyway.  I opened the ports, turned off the firewall, put myself in the DMZ and still can't get anything working.
[00:59] <Banano> bubbasaures, thanks again. i've switched to gnome (fallback) and performance is better
[00:59] <OerHeks> beefer, expensive game http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/10/borderlands-pre-sequel-linux-download
[00:59] <bubbasaures> Banano, cool, enjoy.
[01:00] <Banano> now i just have to fix my keyboard and i'm pretty much back to where i upgraded from ;)
[01:00] <BTJustice> Ubuntu MATE is pretty light on resources.  I play Star Trek Online with it and PlayOnLinux well.
[01:00] <claudio> some braziliam?
[01:00] <Banano> what's the offtopic channel?
[01:00] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: ok, then could you replicate what's happends?
[01:00] <bubbasaures> #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:00] <Banano> makes sense
[01:00] <Banano> thanks
[01:00] <bubbasaures> heh yeah
[01:01] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: i mean paste the error
[01:01] <claudio> some brasilian?
[01:01] <bubbasaures> !br
[01:01] <claudio> thanks
[01:01] <bubbasaures> no probs
[01:01] <beefer> OerHeks: yeah, I feel it's better to support games that run on Linux
[01:02] <BTJustice> It works fine now if I try to create a key in terminal as a regular user whereas before I had nothing but errors.
[01:03] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: ok, good to know
[01:03] <BTJustice> I guess at some time /.gnupg either got created or modified to only be accessed by root.  No idea when that happened.
[01:04] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: it could, who knows xD
[01:04] <kostkon> bashful, man notify-send
[01:05] <BTJustice> Chuck_Norris: Alright.  Thanks for your help.  You too Ben64 and Bashing-om.
[01:05] <Chuck_Norris> BTJustice: np
[01:21] <frexious> hi

[01:29] <honey> new pc... only shows analog audio
[01:29] <honey> no opt for digital 5.1 blah.
[01:29] <honey> subwoofer is grayed out no mode.
[01:29] <honey> you with me? lol
[01:29] <honey> im on 14.04
[01:30] <daftykins> hrmm, could be that IEC958 (optical) is muted
[01:30] <honey> i dont think we saw anything muted..
[01:30] <honey> HomelessSanta, did we? lol
[01:30] <daftykins> i think i often hear comments of installing "pavucontrol" being helpful
[01:30] <HomelessSanta> Aha nope honey.
[01:30] <frexious> omg quit notices suck..
[01:31] <sloantothebone> lol
[01:31] <frexious> i need a clean log
[01:31] <daftykins> frexious: please take it elsewhere, you're off topic.
[01:31] <honey> are you an op here daftykins ?
[01:31] <HomelessSanta> daftykins, We have a few pictures between the Alsamixer and the sound input if you'd like to check it out.
[01:32] <HomelessSanta> For honey's issue.
[01:32] <HomelessSanta> ^^
[01:32] <daftykins> honey: nah, just had enough brain removed to volunteer :D
[01:32] <honey> lol.
[01:32] <daftykins> sure, any pics'd help
[01:32] <HomelessSanta> KK.
[01:32] <HomelessSanta> Give me a second.
[01:32] <honey> maybe do it in pm?
[01:32] <honey> i might feel violated. lol

[01:32] <HomelessSanta> Up to you honey.
[01:33] <honey> idk chan rules.
[01:33] <daftykins> truth be told i don't even use desktop so i might not be much help at all
[01:33] <honey> go for it.
[01:33] <honey>  idc
[01:33] <HomelessSanta> daftykins, This is her old PC the sound works fine: https://i.imgur.com/s6iuHg1.png and this is her new PC: https://i.imgur.com/XUFcRNs.jpg
[01:33] <daftykins> keeping it in chan as long as it's family friendly *looks at honey* would let everyone chime in
[01:34] <honey> past my bedtime.
[01:35] <HomelessSanta> daftykins, I figured it wasn't sound up the Speaker column in Alsamixer plainly due to a missing driver or module is my best guess.
[01:35] <HomelessSanta> As the kernel may not support it by default.
[01:35] <daftykins> hmm realtek ALC662
[01:36] <daftykins> honey: can you install the package "pastebinit" and share an "aplay -L | pastebinit" ?
[01:37] <honey> i still have it up actually. i pasted it in my chan. lol
[01:37] <honey> hold up
[01:37] <frexious> ok i figured it out -__-
[01:37] <frexious> running on ubuntu server

[01:39] <HomelessSanta> For honey's aplay -L
[01:39] <HomelessSanta> ^^
[01:39] <HomelessSanta> I should of added some highlighting to it.
[01:39] <frexious> have anyone got saltstack working on server
[01:40] <daftykins> poor NRG didn't want to work... well that's definitely not listing that it's even capable
[01:40] <MDTech-us_MAN> hello
[01:40] <honey> lol
[01:40] <MDTech-us_MAN> I rememeber there is a package that installs pretty much all the dev packages
[01:41] <honey> idk about this
[01:41] <MDTech-us_MAN> more than build-essentials
[01:41] <daftykins> honey: silly question but i take it the optical jack looks normal and is definitely shining out the ol' red LED?
[01:42] <honey> LED? where you looking?
[01:43] <daftykins> physically, on the computer
[01:43] <honey> i went to look and the power cord pulled out.. its getting late. lol

[01:59] <Qwertie> It happens every time I try and run a live usb/cd
[01:59] <matthew> hello
[02:00] <daftykins> Qwertie: memtest
[02:00] <daftykins> remake the media, md5 the download, etc etc
[02:00] <Guest24981> Im trying to install ubuntu studio. I already have ubuntu unity 14.04 installed. I entered the command in the terminal, rebooted and nothing happened
[02:00] <Qwertie> I think the hardware is ok because windows 8 works fine
[02:01] <daftykins> !md5 | Qwertie
[02:01] <bazhang> Guest24981,
[02:01] <Qwertie> I have re downloaded and tried other versions and tried mint and the all do this
[02:01] <bazhang> did you select ubuntustudio in the login window
[02:01] <daftykins> update BIOS?
[02:02] <bazhang> !info ubuntustudio-desktop
[02:02] <Guest24981> there wasnt an option
[02:02] <bazhang> Guest24981, Thats what to install ^
[02:02] <Qwertie> I could try updating the bios.
[02:03] <Guest24981> I just entered sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop. After that, is there anything else
[02:03] <bazhang> let it install the packages
[02:04] <Guest24981> after that do I reboot or does it load on its own
[02:05] <bazhang> log out, then select, log in
[02:05] <Guest24981> k
[02:07] <Guest24981> k thanks
[02:10] <metasansana> is there a channel for ubuntu developers? ie: people developing on ubuntu not the system itself
[02:11] <coolstar> metasansana: it's usually better to join the channel of the component you want to contribute to
[02:11] <coolstar> metasansana: e.g. #xfce-dev for xfce
[02:11] <bazhang> ##programming perhaps metasansana
[02:11] <metasansana> coolstar, not really referring to contribution
[02:12] <metasansana> came across this today: http://blog.didrocks.fr/post/Ubuntu-loves-Developers

[02:32] <UTL> Hello. When I copy files to a mini SD card directly using an adapter plugged into my laptop, the process is extremely slow, and even hangs. It's so bad, that I have to restart my computer to get it to stop hanging! My other alternative is to use Windows, because it works there, but not Ubuntu. HELP!
[02:33] <UTL> I am transferring files, and it is hung, even as I'm typing. I need an immediate answer!
[02:34] <chalcedony> UTL, are you using commands or a gui?
[02:35] <UTL> I am transferring using the file manager (Nautilus).
[02:36] <chalcedony> that ought actually to work, UTL
[02:37] <somsip> UTL: anything in dmesg to indicate an error?
[02:38] <UTL> The active light on my laptop is staying on, but there is little on-screen activity. It is transferring a nearly 500 megabyte file at KILOBYTES per second! It goes nearly instantly under Windows.
[02:38] <UTL> Dmesg? What's that?
[02:38] <somsip> UTL: in a terminal, type 'demsg'
[02:38] <UTL> Okay, just a sec.
[02:39] <dustinspringman> i've got a 12.04 that is not booting... I've mounted the disk with another vm, can see the files... what I want to do is disable startup services one by one until the OS boots... anyone know the proper way to do that?
[02:40] <UTL> Hmmm. I think I found my problem. It just displayed dozens of lines that say "end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector (input number here)" and it also says several times "mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt."
[02:41] <somsip> UTL: seems like it. I have no idea what that means, but it should give you something to research from
[02:43] <Banano> dustinspringman, wouldn't backing up the files and start over be a better idea?
[02:43] <Bashing-om> dustinspringman: What leads you to suspect any startup service as a problem rather than the boot files in general ?
[02:43] <UTL> Research? What should I research? I don't have much to go on, here.
[02:43] <dustinspringman> I'm pretty sure its related to a service I was testing.. i ran apt-get update and it errored.. after reboot it now hangs.. =/
[02:44] <somsip> UTL: you have an error message.
[02:44] <dustinspringman> I'd like to just shut off that service out of startup, pretty sure it will come back
[02:44] <dustinspringman> and I've got a ton of customization on this vm.. would rather not have to start over..
[02:44] <UTL> Obviously.
[02:44] <UTL> I'll see what I can look up.
[02:44] <somsip> UTL: so why ask the question what to research when you have an obvious point of reference to use in your research...
[02:45] <dustinspringman> i'm seeing something about "echo manual > /etc/init.d/service~name"
[02:45] <dustinspringman> maybe... maybe.. that will work?
[02:46] <remymartin9> what's the reason for youtube video showing black screen but audio is plays?
[02:46]  * UTL is confused. He hasn't had much coffee. :-P
[02:47] <Banano> maybe youtube doesn't like you remymartin9
[02:47] <remymartin9> Banano:  why troll?
[02:47] <Bashing-om> dustinspringman: Well, yeah, might try and do a full CHange Root into the install from the liveDVD. Wont hurt to try .
[02:47] <Banano> i'm not
[02:47] <flipfry>  i tried to resize my ubuntu filesystem using gparted (from a ubuntu live USB) but it failed. Now my drive doesnt boot, anyone have any ideas how to repair?
[02:47] <TheHackOps> remymartin9, It happens when the flash plugin containers render decides its done for the day
[02:48] <remymartin9> i've no idea what that means, so something is broken with flash plugin?
[02:48] <bubbasaures> flipfry, You had a error in the resize running gparted?
[02:48] <flipfry> yea, not sure what went wrong
[02:48] <TheHackOps> What happened ubuntu
[02:48] <flipfry> i was trying to shrink so i could fit onto a new SSD
[02:49] <TheHackOps> You used to be cool
[02:49] <bubbasaures> flipfry, Did it show as a partition still,or unallocated?
[02:49] <bazhang> TheHackOps, take the chat elsewhere
[02:49] <xxz2013> lih
[02:50] <xxz2013> hAHH
[02:50] <flipfry> shows up as ext4 still. when i boot it attempts to find filystem errors
[02:51] <bubbasaures> flipfry, A auto fdisk?
[02:51] <bubbasaures> !fdisk
[02:53] <UTL> Great. So I force eject the card by hand, re-insert, and it doesn't even mount. I run dmesg, and it tells me that it can't read the SD card!
[02:54] <UTL> I'm gonna have to reboot. Thanks anyway, guys.
[02:54] <bubbasaures> flipfry, have you let the file check run, if so for how long and what did you see?
[02:54] <griffball> My USB microphone is powered and showing up in lsusb as just a device ID (Bus 005 Device 003: ID b58e:9e84) but I cannot select it in Sound Settings or anything
[02:55] <flipfry> auto fdisk??
[02:56] <flipfry> failed to find several mount points / ,/tmp...
[02:56] <MDTech-us_MAN> hello
[02:56] <MDTech-us_MAN> what does "Your system does not provide a working javascript library."
[02:56] <bubbasaures> flipfry, wrong term Doh,
[02:57] <bubbasaures> flipfry, meant fsck
[02:57] <MDTech-us_MAN> where do I get this "javascript library"
[02:58] <bubbasaures> flipfry, abstractly chkdsk is similar to fsck
[03:00] <MDTech-us_MAN> anyone?
[03:02] <bubbasaures> flipfry, I would check the uuid with sudo blkid and the fstab in the install to see if the same, but we are not really on the same page here.
[03:02] <flipfry> my guess is the UUID changed and its not picking up the new one
[03:02] <bubbasaures> flipfry, That would do it, not a big deal if so, easy fix.
[03:03] <somsip> MDTech-us_MAN: what are you trying to run?
[03:03] <MDTech-us_MAN> eggdrop
[03:04] <MDTech-us_MAN> I probobly will not ever even need that module though
[03:04] <somsip> MDTech-us_MAN: disable the module then
[03:04] <kodes> so what goes on here in noob
[03:04] <MDTech-us_MAN> but still
[03:04] <MDTech-us_MAN> what package have these
[03:06] <Bashing-om> kodes: It be direct ubuntu support, only .
[03:06] <kodes> ok
[03:08] <roy_> HI
[03:10] <flipfry> fstab and blkid match, ill run the fsck
[03:11] <somsip> !find jsapi
[03:12] <somsip> !info libkf5jsapi5
[03:12] <somsip> MDTech-us_MAN: ^^ (possibly)
[03:14] <griffball> My USB microphone is powered and showing up in lsusb as just a device ID (Bus 005 Device 003: ID b58e:9e84) but I cannot select it in Sound Settings or anything
[03:14] <griffball> anyone here have a clue how I can get it fully recognized?
[03:14] <bazhang> griffball, what about using pavucontrol/padevchooser
[03:16] <flipfry> bubbasaures, fsck found some checksum errors right off the bat, now its running through.
[03:17] <nulled> http://emhdf.com if you are harassed seek help here. Answers as well.
[03:17] <griffball> bazhang: does not show in pavucontrol either, and padevchooser gives me a couple of warnings when I try to use it from terminal, so I can't even check into it
[03:18] <griffball> this is the warning it gave me just after installing padevchooser and trying to run it: (process:12977): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Attempt to add property GnomeProgram::default-icon after class was initialised

[03:22] <Hendrich> This is important
[03:22] <Hendrich> I need videogames and Ubuntu has none
[03:22] <EricBlade> helllppp :-)   i just rebooted after the most recent updates to 14.04 installed, and everything was pitch black.  was using nouveau nvidia drivers.  i switched to nvidia-331, and everything comes up, but as soon as I login to X, X restarts.
[03:22] <EricBlade> hendrich: Quake 3

[03:23] <Hendrich> Ubuntu stem?
[03:23] <Hendrich> Got it, thanks bro
[03:23] <bazhang> best is a matter of opinion Hendrich dont poll here
[03:24] <Hendrich> Don't tell me what to do friend
[03:24] <Hendrich> Also Quake 3 is the best game ever made
[03:24] <bazhang> Hendrich, there's a link, check it,
[03:24] <Hendrich> So he is correcf
[03:24] <EricBlade> my X log shows that it was intentionally closing, but I can't find what is telling it to close.

[03:34] <krz> i have a ubuntu laptop. cron suddenly stopped working. ps aux | grep cron, doesnt show anything significant
[03:34] <nix-> wow it's quiet in here, usually it's super busy
[03:34] <krz> anyone know why?
[03:35] <griffball> I can see what looks like a partial device ID that corresponds to my USB microphone in lsusb, but it doesn't show in pavucontrol or the basic sound settings... any ideas what could be going on?
[03:39] <krz> what does ubuntu use to run cron?
[03:39] <krz> crond?
[03:40] <riz0n> Hello, I am getting a "permission denied" error in cron, for awstats, my logfiles are in /var/log/apache2/custom ... What do I need to set the permissions for there to not be a permission errors?

[03:44] <fireun> Hi all, I installed 14.10 on a new laptop, got the basics setup before I realized it wasnt an LTS release, so I reinstalled with 14.04 and now I can't get my bluetooth mouse to connect -- any ideas why that may be? I tried searching for bluetooth related changelog info but came up with nothing.
[03:44] <valium> anything is possible with ubuntu
[03:44] <MrSavage> Don't be a derp
[03:45] <valium> burp
[03:45] <fireun> hrm. classy.
[03:46] <chettikandathil> like it is okay if i could give the /home/ubuntu/configs as the configuration (or home) directory for the application. is it possible to specify like that?
[03:49] <Guest74074> hello

[03:49] <somsip> Guest74074: /quit
[03:49] <Guest74074> that's such a noob question for me to ask i'm sorry guys

[03:54] <le_goliard> Hello. I would like to make my Ubuntu desktop launch a script after a few minutes of being idle and to kill the script after some time
[03:55] <le_goliard> it also need to kill the script after the user becomes activity
[03:58] <mbuf> why am I getting an error in this script? http://paste.ubuntu.com/9421556/
[03:59] <cfhowlett> !bash | mbuf
[03:59] <cfhowlett> mbuf, suggestion:  #bash        channel
[04:00] <somsip> mbuf: grep doesn't just return a one-line output
[04:05] <SwitchKill> CHOLBY RULES
[04:05]  * SwitchKill slaps her pussy for FREEDOM!
[04:07] <LinuxGold> *cough* what?
[04:13] <cfhowlett> LinuxGold, daily foul-mouthed idiot.  safe to ignore.
[04:13] <mbuf> cfhowlett, somsip that code works fine on other distributions, hence the question here
[04:14] <somsip> mbuf: it all depends on the content of .bashrc though. If there is no match, result is empty and you're find. If you get 2 lines in the result, -eq is not a valid comparison. I could be well wrong, but it looks like a potential bug to me
[04:15] <somsip> *you're fine
[04:15] <mbuf> somsip, the answer 'No' is correct; but, my question was on the error part
[04:15] <LinuxGold> of course.
[04:16] <grimlock_> hello ubuntuners!!!!
[04:19] <somsip> mbuf: do you understand what I said before? I does not look like -eq is a valid comparison between the output of grep and "". I get "-eq: unary operator expected" which suggest you should be checking for NULL (using -z) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15522018/bash-unary-operator-expected
[04:19] <mbuf> somsip, okay
[04:30] <epyx> my system unstable and running hot, it freezes from time to time
[04:30] <epyx> fans are blasting though
[04:31] <epyx> what can I do?
[04:37] <m000gle> I use Chrome/Chromium application launcher shortcuts in order to pin websites such as Google Calendar, Feedly etc to my launcher/dock, and would like to specify a window size, which the window will open to each time.
[04:37] <m000gle> I've tried: Using the command-line switchers "window-size=x,y" and "--app-window-size=x,y"; as well as the X standard "--geometry=wxh+0+0".  However, Chrome/Chromium seems to ignore all of the above.  I've tested this both in the Open Source and Google branded browsers.
[04:37] <m000gle> Are there any ways to force a specific window size upon launching a Chrome/Chromium application launcher shortcuts .desktop file? [Ubuntu 14.04, Unity desktop environment / Google Chrome Version 39.0.2171.71 (64-bit) / Chromium Version 39.0.2171.65]
[04:38] <m000gle> I apologize for posting this in the Ubuntu Support channel, but after asking this question twice in 48 hours in #chromium-support, I've not yet received so much as a response =/
[04:41] <celexi> m00gle whenever i open a window from a shortcut in chrome it opens on its previous size
[04:41] <celexi> it doesn't do that for you ?
[04:41] <m000gle> Try maximizing the window, closing the window while maximized, and then opening it
[04:42] <m000gle> When I do this, it will forget the previous window's size, and default back to its minimum size, barely big enough to fit the window decorations and forcing me to resize it manually
[04:42] <celexi> yeah it bugs out that way for me as well
[04:42] <Bashing-om> epyx: Have you cleaned the box, and blown out the dustr ( protect the fans from spinning while blowing ) ?
[04:42] <celexi> but i never maximize them usually
[04:42] <Bashing-om> dust*
[04:43] <m000gle> It would be lovely to just have it open at 1024x768, or 1600x900, or something else equally useable as a window on a large screen
[04:57] <RedPenguin> Is MouseKeys for some reason limited to PS/2?
[04:57] <RedPenguin> My PS/2 extension cable broke and I switched to a USB keyboard and mousekeys no longer does anything
[05:00] <bubbasaures> RedPenguin, look in settings universal access
[05:01] <echall> hey
[05:01] <RedPenguin> bubbasaures: figured it out, for some reason disabling and renabling worked
[05:01] <bubbasaures> RedPenguin, GJ ;)
[05:06] <echall> hello there
[05:10] <echall> hey
[05:11] <foxlet> Hi!
[05:12] <opus_> hello, screwed up my apt-get again..
[05:13] <opus_> Is there a checklist of how to fix 'apt-get -f install' ? I installed libmysqlclient_....maria and it broke my entire box
[05:13] <daftykins>  opus_ - we'd surely love some pastebin'd output rather than to have to guess :)
[05:14] <opus_> http://pastebin.com/D7ZYmmBW is where it fails
[05:15] <daftykins> opus_: "dpkg -l | grep libmysql"
[05:16] <opus_> http://pastebin.com/rpAaZBht
[05:16] <opus_> looks like two packages, one i386 and one amd
[05:16] <daftykins> indeed
[05:16] <daftykins> and you can only have one!
[05:17] <daftykins> looks like the i386 is removed but config files are still present
[05:17] <opus_> hmmm
[05:18] <opus_> how do fix that? I was trying to install mariadb
[05:18] <opus_> which tried to install some mysql stuff, obviously it didn't work. i eventually just ran a docker container
[05:19] <daftykins> you could purge both and try again
[05:19] <daftykins> depends how wrecking-ball you want to be with it :D
[05:20] <opus_> damn
[05:20] <opus_> these error messages are making me feel dumb
[05:21] <daftykins> they do give clues :)
[05:21] <opus_> can I just remove it?
[05:21] <daftykins> 'it' ?
[05:21] <LinuxGold> you mean remove linux altogether?
[05:21] <LinuxGold> and install what, Windows?
[05:21] <daftykins> don't be silly.
[05:22] <daftykins> we're talking about packages
[05:22] <opus_> http://pastebin.com/juTy2kZU
[05:22] <opus_> Thats what happens when I try to purge both of them
[05:22] <opus_> "but it is not going to be installed" ["cuz you are stupid, haha!"]
[05:23] <opus_> http://pastebin.com/PzyhzDNL If i try to remove all of the packages that depend on it
[05:24] <opus_> it saids it can't remove it because it can't install it, but it won't remove it because it isn't installed.
[05:24] <daftykins> use "dpkg -r <package>"
[05:25]  * bubbasaures looks for the peanut vendor
[05:26] <daftykins> bubbasaures: that's nuts!
[05:26] <bubbasaures> ;)
[05:26] <Schnabeltierchen> any suggestions for a single-user xmpp server (if many transports are integrated perfect) under ubuntu?
[05:27] <opus_> is there a way to force it to remove it?
[05:27] <opus_> I got i386 removed but amd64 is still there
[05:27] <opus_> and i still can't install wireshark
[05:27] <daftykins> yeah dpkg -r is
[05:27] <warfaren> try remove packagename:amd64 ?
[05:28] <warfaren> iirc that's how you do it
[05:28] <daftykins> i would hope that's what's been tried already.
[05:29] <opus_> http://pastebin.com/c2B7a3q7
[05:32] <Qwertie> Does the startup disk creater work with other disros?
[05:33] <warfaren> Qwertie: you mean using it to create bootable disks for other distros?
[05:34] <Qwertie> Yes
[05:34] <warfaren> i think it could work, there's also a program called unetbootin that you could try that does the same thing
[05:35] <Qwertie> Can you just copy the content of the iso on to a usb?
[05:35] <bubbasaures> Qwertie, The onboard is ubuntu only
[05:35] <warfaren> Qwertie: no you can't, because the boot sector is outside the main partition
[05:35] <bubbasaures> Qwertie, people often dd it
[05:35] <daftykins> Qwertie: only for EFI boot
[05:36] <daftykins> warfaren: only true for legacy boot
[05:36] <warfaren> so it would not get written, then you'll just have a USB stick with regular files on it.
[05:36] <warfaren> oh ok daftykins thanks, i haven't really looked into EFI yet
[05:36] <opus_> man.. this sucks
[05:36] <opus_> any idea?
[05:37] <MSErgo4k> Which software stack will handle ACPI event for changing screen mode.(E.g. mirror mode/extend mode/internal only) The acpi hot key doesn't work on my laptop. And I want to debug it.
[05:39] <Schnabeltierchen> MSErgo4k normaly acpid or some other program grabing the acpi-events and triggering scripts...
[05:40] <MSErgo4k> Schnabeltierchen: Great thanks. So I think the first step is find the correct script and add some debug output to check if the script is triggered. I'll do it now. :)
[05:40] <Schnabeltierchen> in the repo is a acpi-debugger-tool, forgot his name, but i also used it to get my power key working properly... start in verbose, and press your key,if a keypress is singalized in terminal, you have to check the acpid config for the script
[05:40] <Schnabeltierchen> triggered by the button
[05:41] <hilbilly> I have an NTFS volume as USB external.  Due to CPU resources, I suspect it is using kernel NTFS instead of ntfs-3g.  Mount lists it as 'fuseblk'.  How can I tell?
[05:41] <MSErgo4k> I see, thanks!
[05:41] <Schnabeltierchen> my infos may not be accurate, they´re depending on my own eperiences....
[05:41] <Schnabeltierchen> but it solved my problem this way, maybe it gives you some hints
[05:42] <MSErgo4k> Schnabeltierchen: Surely it's useful for me. I'll try to search some acpi-debug-tools now. :-D
[05:42] <Schnabeltierchen> aptitude seach acpi
[05:49] <krastavac> can someone help me how to install all kali/backbox tools in ubuntu 14.04 lst?
[05:50] <hilbilly> Why not just install backbox?
[05:50] <dlukz> is this the support channle or should i go elsewhere?
[05:51] <xangua>  /topic
[05:57] <dlukz> well here is my issue.  I have a usb wifi adapter that connects to a neighbors wifi so they have access to my computer.  The connection is really shotty and disconnects often.  It requires me to reset the adapter(unplug and replug).  Is there a way to do this via CLI?  i have tried echoing 1 into "/sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/2-4/remove", but that crashed my machine.  "usb_modeswitch -R -v 08456 -p 9020" also doesnt work.  Anyone have any sugge
[06:01] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: after a quick search:  echo "port id" |sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/unbind  I didn't verify if it works.
[06:02] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: The command will disable an USB port. So you need to choose the correct port id.
[06:02] <dlukz> thanks..testing now
[06:03] <dlukz> so the portid is the 2-4?
[06:03] <dlukz> or?
[06:12] <epyx> how do I reset start up programs? (Ubuntu 14.04)
[06:12] <epyx> I accidently pressed the remove button... :/
[06:16] <dlukz> MSErgo4k so, yeah that removed it. but now its gone, have a suggestion for rescanning the usb?
[06:21] <Sugi> hey. im trying to install a .run file and I am getting the error “unable to alloc X bytes"
[06:21] <Sugi> any idea what might be causing ti?
[06:22] <dlukz> Sugi it sounds like its an error in the file to me, but im not sure
[06:23] <Sugi> hm ok. ill redownload
[06:23] <dlukz> i don't know if redownloading will fix anything
[06:23] <Ben64> Sugi: what are you installing? you should find a better method than running a random file
[06:24] <Sugi> metasploit framework
[06:24] <dlukz> MSErgo4k so another problem i have is that wlan0 doesnt show as an interface unless i unplug and replug the usb device
[06:28] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: aha. Sorry, I just googled it. And the page didn't show me how to add it back...
[06:29] <dlukz> actually it may still be there
[06:29] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: not sure...
[06:29] <dlukz> but i still need to figure out how to add wlan0 without manually replugging the usb
[06:30] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: let me google a solution for you. :-)
[06:31] <dlukz> ive looked, no luck on my part
[06:32] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: Please could you check if it works for you:  echo "port id" |sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/bind
[06:34] <turdle654> Hey, I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.1 in VMWARE player and its virtual display refuses to fill the player window.
[06:35] <dlukz> MSErgo4k you mean actually "port id" or the port id it should be?
[06:35] <MSErgo4k> dlukz: when you try to disable that port, you choosed a port id. And fill it again there.
[06:36] <dlukz> i used 2-4, the device it was listed as
[06:37] <dlukz> cat /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/2-4/idVendor
[06:37] <dlukz> 0846
[06:37] <dlukz> thats right
[06:37] <dlukz> but still no wlan0
[06:38] <dlukz> well this is stupid :\
[06:39] <dlukz> all im trying to do is make my wifi adapter persistently connect to a specific wifi access point, I have everything else taken care of, i just need to have the usb wifi adapter reset if the connection dies
[06:39] <dlukz> ^ its a stupid one that requires custom drivers
[06:40] <MSErgo4k> I have no idea then :-(
[06:40] <dlukz> no worries
[06:40] <dlukz> i will find a way
[06:41] <Ben64> get a better adapter?
[06:41] <dlukz> i mean, its a great adapter
[06:41] <Ben64> obviously not
[06:41] <dlukz> the chipset just has shitty support for ubuntu
[06:41] <dlukz>  NetGear, Inc. WNA3100(v1) Wireless-N 300 [Broadcom BCM43231]
[06:42] <Ben64> yeah, so get a better one..
[06:45] <UBUNTU_USER> i have question : why does deleting libselinux.so.1 library file break entire linux installs if selinux is disabled
[06:45] <UBUNTU_USER> why would the library be used , if its disabled
[06:45] <UBUNTU_USER> i dont know how to read codes, and dont trust nsa codes
[06:46] <UBUNTU_USER> can anyone explain it plz
[06:50] <MSErgo4k> UBUNTU_USER: try to find which package depends on selinux?
[06:52] <UBUNTU_USER> lol
[06:52] <rww> UBUNTU_USER: because rather a lot of rather important programs have the ability to use selinux features if it's enabled, so they're linked against libselinux, and programs tend not to work if libraries they're linked against like that don't exist.
[06:52] <UBUNTU_USER> ok i understand
[06:52] <UBUNTU_USER> so its impossible for selinux to execute code
[06:52] <UBUNTU_USER> even thoughit checks for lib
[06:53] <cope-> working on a remote 14.04 server and: service networking restart; does not work. same with ifdown em2 && ifup em2

[07:07] <stoogenmeyer> hey im trying to have a command in cron such as this 0 3 * * * curl http://localhost:4151/pub?topic=events -d "{\"name\":\"timer.daily\",\"data\":{\"timestamp\":\"$(date +%s)\"}}"
[07:08] <stoogenmeyer> but the command seems to not be exectued correctly (i assume its because of the $(date +%s) part. could someone give me a hand in making this cronable ?
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> !cron | stoogenmeyer maybe this can help?
[07:13] <lotuspsychje> stoogenmeyer: that online cron job at bottom of page looks interesting

[09:12] <KennyJB> Hey there anyone around?
[09:12] <KamalKaur> Greetings!
[09:13] <KamalKaur> How can I check the user activities on server?
[09:14] <KamalKaur> Ubuntu server*
[09:14] <KennyJB> What type of activities are you interested in checking?
[09:16] <torelulz> KennyJB: last username - for login history, you can check his ~/.bash_history for a history of commands
[09:17] <KennyJB> I think it was KamalKaur looking for that info
[09:18] <KamalKaur> KennyJB: Like who logged and used what commands?
[09:19] <KamalKaur> and at what time
[09:20] <KennyJB> who will show you who is logged in, last will show the last users logged in, and you can find a history of commands for users at ~/.bash_history
[09:21] <KennyJB> KamalKaur, ^
[09:21] <KennyJB> You can also use lsof and ps to get information on what types of files and processes the user is running
[09:23] <KamalKaur> That's for a particular user. Is there a way to list all the activities collectively for all users?
[09:24] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: cat /home/*/.bash_history
[09:24] <b00b00> hello
[09:24] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: anybody can kill bash before it writes the history file btw
[09:25] <KennyJB> KamalKaur, are you seeking some type of real-time monitoring?
[09:25] <b00b00> I am looking for an idea, i have little widget i wrote on node.js and i want to add basic auth mechanism, is there a way on ubuntu level some how to do it? not node.js or apache auth i am looking for. thanks
[09:26] <KamalKaur> EriC^^: Using cat will not show the users, but only the commands used
[09:27] <KamalKaur> KennyJB: Is there something like that in your knowledge?
[09:28] <KennyJB> top/htop are probably the best for that unless you need to see specifically which commands are being entered
[09:29] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: you can use this find /home -iname ".bash_history" | while read e; do echo $e; cat $e; done
[09:29] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: it will state the path of the file before cat'ing
[09:30] <EriC^^> use cat -n if you want it numbered
[09:31] <ash`> Also man strace might be useful depending on what you want to see.
[09:31] <KamalKaur> EriC^^: Ok
[09:31] <KamalKaur> And how does the admins manage it all?
[09:31] <KamalKaur> What all they do and use in their routine?
[09:32] <KennyJB> KamalKaur, lsof, ps, who, last, tail
[09:32] <KennyJB> Read the manual files for these.  Also look into what the various logs in /var/log/ are.
[09:32] <KennyJB> You can pretty much monitor everything on your system with those.
[09:33] <KennyJB> There's not really one central application that tracks user activities globally, that I know of anyway.  Most just use a mixture of these tools to find out what they need
[09:35] <KamalKaur> And how do I know what do I need? o.O
[09:35] <KennyJB> Well, it's easier to define what you need to do
[09:36] <KennyJB> And then to decide how to use those tools to do it
[09:36] <KennyJB> To make a lame analogy...  It's how a carpenter builds a house with a hammer and tape measure, versus there just being a "house building machine".
[09:36] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: this is better, just occurred to me for i in /home/*/.bash_history; do echo $i; cat -n $i; done
[09:37] <KamalKaur> EriC^^: yeah.. Thanks
[09:38] <KamalKaur> KennyJB: Actually I'm a beginner to SysAdmin things. Just searching for what all are my duties and routine works. On searching I found that SysAdmins do a lot of things, they monitor the working, logs, security etc
[09:39] <KennyJB> I would suggest reading the manual to lsof.  It's one of the more complex of the ones I mentioend and you should be able to get an idea of what it is useful for
[09:39] <irgendwer4711> hi, I have a problem with ubutnu 14.04 and xen 4.4. Xen does not mount disk images via loop after update from 4.1. Somehow Xen use qemu to emulate an IDE drive. why?
[09:39] <KennyJB> For example, you can use it to list open network connections for a specific user, or fine out which users have a psecific file open, etc.
[09:40] <KamalKaur> KennyJB: Okay
[09:43] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: there's also tripwire btw
[09:43] <EriC^^> !info tripwire
[09:45] <KennyJB> If you're doing any network monitoring iptraf is very useful too
[09:46] <KamalKaur> I'll look for that, Thanks :)
[09:49] <phasip> Is there a nice way to on a 64bit system install both the 64bit package and 32bit package. I only want the libraries from a package but it wants me to uninstall the 64bit version...
[09:53] <tyak> problem with files more than 2Gb for tar -czvf ubuntu.tar.gz / --exclude=/media --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/cdrom --exclude=/proc --exclude=/sys --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/root --exclude=/tmp --exclude=/srv --exclude=/run | split -b1024m
[09:53] <tyak> cal you help me?
[09:54] <iptable> tyak: define @problems with tar for files more than 2Gb@
[09:54] <iptable> what is the filesystem you are trying to write those tar files into?
[09:55] <iptable> Or are you having a problem adding files > 2Gb to tar archive?
[10:04] <iscorpion> plz help me http://paste.ubuntu.com/9424913/
[10:05] <iscorpion> and my sources.list is empty
[10:06] <nossgingmmuc> Hi, I have a samba share on my linux and I wish to access it from a Windows Service built in c#. The issue I am having is that my service is unable to copy files from that local computer to the samba share. I am suspecting there is some issues with authentication or folder rights. Any ideas?
[10:07] <nossgingmmuc> For testing I've set the folder to chmod 777, also in samba set guest ok, writeable and public yes
[10:07] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: before you reverse engineer the world, have you tried accessing the cifs shared using standard windows \\IP\share and copying files to the share using that?
[10:08] <tyak_> my problem is create a file tar.gz with more than 2 gb
[10:08] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: that will help you figure out if it's your c code or samba config
[10:08] <nossgingmmuc> iptable: well, it works from windows computer A but not B
[10:08] <nossgingmmuc> but I fail to understand the difference between them.
[10:09] <iptable> tyak_: so the problem is with creating a tar file that would be over 2Gb in size? Is this a 32bit or 64bit ubuntu? Also what's the filesystem on which you are creating the tar file?
[10:09] <tyak_> 64
[10:09] <KamalKaur> EriC^^: Hey!
[10:09] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: so an ubuntu share, 2 windows boxes, accessing from one windows box works as expected and doesn't work as expected form the other? using same login username?
[10:09] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: what's up?
[10:09] <iptable> tyak_: answer the other part of the question please
[10:10] <tyak_> ext4
[10:10] <KamalKaur> You said that one can remove the history means the .bash_history file. Then how do the admin know about that user's activities?
[10:11] <nossgingmmuc> iptable: there is no authentication to access the share.
[10:11] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: i suppose you could get something that logs everything somehow
[10:11] <iptable> KamalKaur: auditd?
[10:11] <EriC^^> KamalKaur: no idea really
[10:11] <iptable> KamalKaur: 1. logs, 2. audit daemon called auditd, 3. selinux, 4. apparmor, 5. distributed bash history logging
[10:11] <iptable> 5 ways
[10:11] <KamalKaur> iptable: Any experience with it?
[10:12] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: well, there is. I understand that you are accessing as "Anonymous" on both boxes then?
[10:12] <iptable> KamalKaur: which one?
[10:12] <chong> exit
[10:12] <chong> q
[10:12] <chong> exit
[10:12] <nossgingmmuc> yeah, I suspect that is the case iptable.
[10:12]  * BigBud dances around naked
[10:12] <linocisco> sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 7F0CEB10 DOES NOT work
[10:13] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: are you logged in to the windows boxes using the same username when tryign this?
[10:13] <KamalKaur> iptable: auditd
[10:13] <KamalKaur> And what about distributed bash history logging
[10:13] <iptable> KamalKaur: no. but I heard it's the best one there for the job. googling "auditd howto" might be your best call.
[10:13]  * BigBud urinates on the ops
[10:13]  * BigBud farts
[10:13] <lotuspsychje> !ops | BigBud
[10:13] <BigBud> fuck u!
[10:14] <iptable> KamalKaur: for bash_history, you can patch bash to also save history to a common location
[10:14] <nossgingmmuc> iptable: nope, the computers are different logins.
[10:14] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: does one of the logins match your login on the linux box?
[10:14] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: username that is
[10:14] <nossgingmmuc> nope, they do not.
[10:15] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: in that case it's not permissions on linux and not an issues with samba-cifs. It's a windows issue.
[10:15] <lotuspsychje> KamalKaur: whats your end goal exactly? log what users so on your machine?
[10:15] <lotuspsychje> do
[10:16] <iptable> tyak_: did you compile tar yourself?
[10:16] <KamalKaur> Goal is definitely to be a good SysAdmin. Logs are one of the important things
[10:16] <iptable> tyak_: looks like either the OS is 32 bit or the tar you installed is 32 bit. Or tar isn't compiled with large file support.
[10:17] <iptable> tyak_: first do this: dd if=/dev/zero of=/location/where/tar/file/would/go bs=1M count=2500
[10:17] <lotuspsychje> KamalKaur: you can keylog your own network
[10:17] <iptable> tyak_: so we can test if you can create files larger than 2Gb in that particular location at all
[10:17] <iptable> tyak_: then we know if we should be troubleshooting filesystem/kernel OR tar binary.
[10:18] <KamalKaur> lotuspsychje: Means?
[10:18] <lotuspsychje> KamalKaur: meaning, keylogging users on your own network, so you know exaclty whats happening
[10:18] <lotuspsychje> !info logkeys | KamalKaur
[10:18] <iptable> that is NOT a good sysadmin practice
[10:18] <iptable> and doesn't work for SSL connections
[10:19] <nossgingmmuc> iptable: do you mind if I send you the smb logs for that connection? I wish not to paste it public
[10:19] <nossgingmmuc> maybe you can see something I cant
[10:19] <iptable> KamalKaur: for multihomed systems, use auditd, save logs remotely as well as locally as well
[10:19] <lotuspsychje> iptable: its an official package...
[10:19] <iptable> nossgingmmuc: use pastebin
[10:19] <nossgingmmuc> Yeah, I have done that.
[10:19] <KamalKaur> ok
[10:19] <iptable> lotuspsychje: that doesn't make it a good sysadmin practice. keylogging is evil
[10:20]  * iptable goes for a coffee
[10:20] <lotuspsychje> iptable: what about if you have evil users on your own network?
[10:26] <crito> hi guys, a quick question. I'm unable to connect to my website over internet but can on 3g. Plus can't ssh into the server. Any help would be great
[10:26] <mintooedou> mintooedou
[10:27] <ikonia> crito: look at your networks routes then
[10:27] <ikonia> crito: if you can connect on 3g over the internet but not on your ineternet connection check your internet connections routes, dns and firewall
[10:30] <iptable> lotuspsychje: ban them, restrict them, control them. Don't keylog them
[10:31] <rod_> any gui for ubuntu server recomendations?
[10:31] <Ben64> rod_: none
[10:31] <iptable> crito: you mean you can't connect to your website from the same network on which you are hosting it using your router's external IP?
[10:31] <iptable> crito: if so, change the router. most likely it doesn't do something called NAT loopback so you cannot access internal server services using your network's external IP. common issue with most routers
[10:31] <gdm85> hi there! any idea why 'rsyslogd -d' just forks, without staying in foreground?
[10:32] <ktechmidas> rod_: why would you use a GUI on a server?
[10:32] <rod_> is ubuntu server jsp only?
[10:32] <iptable> rod_: no
[10:32] <rod_> nubi
[10:32] <mintooedou> mintooedou
[10:32] <ikonia> mintooedou: can you stop that please
[10:33] <crito> sorry no iptable. My server is hosted remotely. Working fine, but now unable connect to the website or download emails
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> iptable: read the purposes: https://code.google.com/p/logkeys/
[10:33] <iptable> gdm85: from rsyslog manpage: -n: Avoid auto-backgrounding.
[10:33] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: doesn't key logging record the keyboard strokes?
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: yes
[10:33] <gdm85> iptable: but then the description of -d option is wrong/misleading
[10:34] <iptable> hence it is evil and makes people feel unfomfortable using the said systems
[10:34] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: so if somebody ssh'es it won't work right?
[10:34] <iptable> gdm85: no it isn't. -d says @turns on debug mode@
[10:34] <gdm85> iptable: "Using this the daemon will not proceed a fork(2) to set itself in the background, but opposite to that stay in the foreground and write much debug information on the current tty."
[10:34] <EriC^^> iptable: yeah cause it records everything even their chats and other info
[10:34] <iptable> gdm85: you can debug log to a file
[10:34] <rod_> want to move my website from win7 machine to usb'd ubuntu server on old machine and stash it in ip pantry
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: it needs to run on the original machine
[10:34] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: you mean the machine they are using for typing?
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: yes
[10:35] <gdm85> iptable: seen that? what do you think?
[10:35] <EriC^^> oh ok
[10:35] <iptable> lotuspsychje: so deploy on ALL machines? that's a small world you live in
[10:35] <EriC^^> iptable: if you dont mind, how do you get the commands run by a user using auditd ?
[10:35] <lotuspsychje> iptable: if evil things happen on your ubuntu machine, this could be a good method
[10:35] <iptable> gdm85: from man page: When debugging is turned on using the -d option, rsyslogd produces debugging information according to the RSYSLOG_DEBUG environment variable and the signals received. When run in foreground, the information is written to stdout. An additional output file can be specified using the RSYSLOG_DEBUGLOG environment variable.
[10:35] <iptable> gdm85: quite clearly explained
[10:35] <EriC^^> iptable: i think i need to change the auditd.conf file , i tried installing it and running a command bu tit's not in audit.log even
[10:36] <gdm85> iptable: I copy/pasted that from the rsyslog version on current ubuntu LTS. which version do you have?
[10:36] <augustN> Does ext3/ext4 have any advantages over FAT32?
[10:36] <iptable> EriC^^: you need to configure it. I remember seeing a walkthrough on their website
[10:36] <iptable> augustN: yes
[10:36] <EriC^^> iptable: ok, thanks
[10:37] <iptable> augustN: 1. supports file permissions, 2. supprots large files, 3. doesn't loose data just like that - i.e. much more resiliant, 4. loads faster
[10:37] <netdef> Hello I have some question regarding on libimobiledevice
[10:37] <gdm85> iptable: I am not sure you're referencing the current Ubuntu 14.04 man page
[10:37] <saleem> how to set network share from ubuntu 12.04 to windows 7
[10:37] <iptable> gdm85: I am referencing original rsyslog man page for rsyslog - latest
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> !samba | saleem
[10:37] <netdef> libimobile 1.1.7 support ios 8.1.1 ?
[10:37] <gdm85> iptable: yeah, but I am on #ubuntu
[10:38] <irgendwer4711> anyone using Xen 4.4?
[10:38] <iptable> gdm85: let me install rsyslog on my ubuntu just to check then
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> irgendwer4711: its best to ask your question mate
[10:38] <gdm85> iptable: current version of rsyslog on ubuntu LTS is 7.4.4
[10:38] <netdef> does imobileinstaller works on ios 8.1.1?
[10:39] <augustN> iptable: thanks. but ext3/ext4 isn't supported by anything other than linux right?
[10:39] <saleem> can i know easier steps by screenshot
[10:39] <Ben64> augustN: you can get it to work in windows
[10:40] <saleem> is there any link in guide with screenshot
[10:40] <netdef> i got "can not start com.apple.installer" error
[10:40] <bekks> netdef: http://www.libimobiledevice.org/
[10:40] <netdef> i got when i'm using imobile installer
[10:40] <irgendwer4711> lotuspsychje: after upgrade to Xen 4.4, Xen used qemu to mount disk images. thats strange.
[10:40] <iptable> augustN: "kind of". You can flush ext3/4 journal when finishing with linux session and then use ext2 drivers on windows to access it on windows. also fuse implementation for OSX exists for ext2/3/4
[10:41] <iptable> gdm85: I don't seem to have man rsyslog on ubuntu 14.04 at all even though I have rsyslog
[10:42] <gdm85> iptable: try man rsyslogd
[10:42] <netdef> I'm building imobiledevice 1.1.7 latest from the ground
[10:42] <gdm85> they made it utterly impossible to report a bug without running information-gathering tools..nice. screw that, I won't file a bug report for this
[10:43] <iptable> gdm85: hold on, checking
[10:43] <gdm85> yep, no hurry here
[10:43] <netdef> ubuntu default package imobileisntaller does not work
[10:44] <iptable> gdm85: I see that. interesting. could drop a mailing list message so someone can look at that
[10:44] <gdm85> iptable: please do so
[10:44] <gdm85> I had seen the "-n" option, but I just got confused by the both descriptions
[10:44] <iptable> gdm85: no, I'm fine. Got enough to do as it is. It's not like people on the help channels get paid for this ;)
[10:45] <gdm85> iptable: I thought you said you were doing that, np
[10:45] <gdm85> as in "[I] could drop..."
[10:45] <iptable> gdm85: no, as in [someone] could drop
[10:45] <iptable> assumptions
[10:45] <gdm85> but good to know in more recent versions it has been fixed
[10:46] <netdef> how many years have you spent to develop this libimobiledevice?
[10:47] <netdef> long time ago it spites sync error but now it works
[10:47] <bekks> netdef: You have to ask the libimobile devs  :)
[10:47] <netdef> ok
[10:47] <iptable> Been helping too many at the same time. highlight me if I missed your response any1
[10:47] <netdef> is threre dev channel?
[10:48] <lotuspsychje> netdef: i think there was a way to sync with rythmbox also if i can recall
[10:48] <irgendwer4711> how to use disk image via "file:" wit Xen 4.4 and xl?
[10:48] <netdef> hu

[11:35] <CodeGosu> to test multiplayer engine, i wish to simulate high latency, and packet drop on all connections. i have seen some tutorials that can do that easy with ipfw on freebsd. what is easiest way to do such stuff in ubuntu?
[11:36] <mgedmin> CodeGosu, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/614795/simulate-delayed-and-dropped-packets-on-linux might help
[11:40] <CodeGosu> if i use 'tc qdisc change dev eth0 root netem delay 100ms 10ms 25%' would it work on localhost connections as well?
[11:40] <mgedmin> I think so
[11:43] <nbusrone> auscompgeek : I need someone with nvidia user to test out the open sourcedriver
[11:43] <ikonia> why do you need someone to test it
[11:43] <ikonia> why don't you test it
[11:44] <nbusrone> ikonia : because I am getting an error
[11:44] <ikonia> so work through the problem
[11:44] <ikonia> rather than ask for other random people to test it, which really proves nothing
[11:46] <cfhowlett> nbusrone, gotta agree with ikonia.  troubleshooting means fixing *your* computer set to your specs and usage.  start there.
[11:46] <mgedmin> sometimes having a working system is useful when you're trying to debug a non-working one, for comparison purposes
[11:46] <mgedmin> (but I don't have nvidia hardware so can't help here)
[11:46] <affy> Hello all. What's the preffered way to permanently change mouse sensitivity and disable mouse acceleration?
[11:46] <auscompgeek> mgedmin: except the nouveau drivers are known to be usable on ubuntu
[11:47] <lotuspsychje> affy: mouse settings?
[11:47] <cfhowlett> auscompgeek, setttings > Mouse and Touchpad > Acceleration / Sensitivity
[11:48] <nbusrone> cfhowlett ok
[11:48] <affy> lotuspsychje: As far as sensitivity, it's all the way to the left (slow) but I want it way slower. There's nothing regarding acceleration there.
[11:48] <auscompgeek> cfhowlett: you mistabbed there ;)
[11:49] <cfhowlett> auscompgeek, DOH!  right.  sorry.
[11:55] <Jack-Zhang> Hello everyone, I'm a novice at Ubuntu. What I use now is Ubunut 14.04, does it worth to update to Ubuntu 14.10?
[11:56] <ikonia> Jack-Zhang: if you are new and still learning - no
[11:57] <dns53> Jack-Zhang 14.04 has the advantage of being a long term support, 14.10 has slightly newer software
[11:57] <Jack-Zhang> Thank you.
[11:59] <Jack-Zhang> Does it something I must to install?
[12:03] <lotuspsychje> Jack-Zhang: what do you still need of software?
[12:05] <Jack-Zhang> I'm also a novice at program.
[12:06] <iptable> Jack-Zhang: no. only upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 if you find that you need to. use 14.04, it's safe, stable and tested.
[12:06] <Jack-Zhang> thank you
[12:06] <iptable> Jack-Zhang: an example of using 14.10 would be if you hardware is so new that 14.04 doesn't yet support it.
[12:06] <Jack-Zhang> ok I get it
[12:07] <iptable> Jack-Zhang: with 14.04 being long term support, it will be supported for 5 years. 14.10 is not long term support so soon you would have to upgrade again. Best to stick with LTS 14.04 if you can.
[12:08] <Jack-Zhang> Thank you very much
[12:08] <iptable> no problem at all
[12:09] <cfhowlett> !kylin | Jack-Zhang, fyi
[12:12] <Jack-Zhang> Because It prvent me from connecting with other countries, I don't want to use Ubuntu K
[12:12] <Jack-Zhang> No matter what Thank you very much
[12:15] <EuaD> i have a backup script that works from the terminal but not from crontab, how would i troubleshoot why it's not running
[12:20] <mgedmin> EuaD, do you get an error message?  cron sends them by mail; you might find it in /var/mail/$username
[12:20] <mgedmin> usually the difference is due to the environment (e.g. a different $PATH)
[12:24] <EuaD> mgedmin, thank you. i realized my crontab didn't have the full path to the script i wanted run.
[12:25] <EuaD> mgedmin, so mail showed the following /bin/sh: 1: backup_linuxtag.sh: not found
[12:37] <TheBigDeal> Good morning everyone :)
[12:38] <TheBigDeal> is there a way to get the 6.18 linux kernel installed ?
[12:39] <dns53> TheBigDeal http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[12:39] <niko> /60/10
[12:39] <TheBigDeal> dns53, installing the .deb directly?
[12:40] <dns53> TheBigDeal yes, but there is a ppa you could add if you want
[12:40] <TheBigDeal> dns53, alright, to add-apt
[12:41] <BluesKaj_> Hiyas all
[12:41] <dns53> TheBigDeal apt-add-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
[12:43] <TheBigDeal> dns53, I cannot understand what's the difference between the regular linux kernels announced by linus and ubuntu kernels, is that the same linux kernel but modified to fit ubuntu standards?
[12:45] <dns53> TheBigDeal no one uses linus
[12:46] <TheBigDeal> dns53, i mean announced by linux
[12:46] <dns53> TheBigDeal no one uses just linus's version, everyone takes a few driver patches from here and there to suite thair needs, why wait for the linus stamped version
[12:46] <TheBigDeal> dns53, btw, W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found
[12:48] <dns53> TheBigDeal so the driver you may need may be ported from a future release. there are also tuning options that work either better as a server or better as a desktop or in the middle
[12:49] <TheBigDeal> hmm
[12:51] <dns53> TheBigDeal do you optimise for responsiveness and have threads do less work more often or or throughput and have each task do more work each slot but have less things running concurrently
[12:51] <TheBigDeal> dns53, what do you mean?
[13:00] <dns53> TheBigDeal the ubuntu kernel makes reasonable choices and has parts from different versions of the kernel ie they may patch a video driver directly from upstream for a new just released video chip not included at the time of release
[13:00] <TheBigDeal> dns53, ok i understand you
[13:01] <TheBigDeal> dns53, But there's an error while updating, after adding the pps
[13:01] <TheBigDeal> ppa*
[13:01] <dns53> TheBigDeal it should be an option when you boot, press etc to get the (grub) boot menu
[13:01] <sarthor> Hi, I have extracted some .deb file, that became 3 files, control.tar.gz, data.tar.gz and debian-binary, How can I make this again file.deb, HELP
[13:02] <TheBigDeal> dns53, W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found
[13:02] <TheBigDeal> E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[13:02] <torelulz> sarthor: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Debian-Binary-Package-Building-HOWTO/
[13:03] <dns53> TheBigDeal try changing it to trusty
[13:03] <TheBigDeal> dns53, omg!, i'm using utopic, what do you mean by changing it?
[13:04] <EriC^^> TheBigDeal: actually these are the supported releases i think http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/dists/
[13:05] <EriC^^> TheBigDeal: the latest is saucy, what exactly does this ppa provide?
[13:05] <TheBigDeal> EriC^^, yes i thought that actually :)
[13:06] <dns53> TheBigDeal just download the deb and install that
[13:06] <TheBigDeal> dns53, ok
[13:06] <TheBigDeal> what's the anti add-apt-repository ? :P
[13:06] <TheBigDeal> command
[13:07] <EriC^^> !ppa-purge
[13:07] <TheBigDeal> ok
[13:08] <EriC^^> TheBigDeal: maybe there's another ppa or something that works with utopic for sure
[13:08] <jabathehut> hello
[13:08] <jabathehut1> hi
[13:08] <TheBigDeal> EriC^^, alright
[13:08] <Paramezius> hello,could anybody tell me if Vino works in ubuntu14.04?
[13:09] <TheBigDeal> EriC^^, add-apt-repository --remove works as well, right?
[13:10] <dns53> TheBigDeal just do that, ppa-purge is for when you have upgraded a lot from a ppa and want to reverse it
[13:10] <TheBigDeal> hmm
[13:11] <isaque> hey there. anyone has removed evolution-data-server? how the system worked after that?
[13:20] <Striki> I'm having a bit of an issue with apt-get. I created a meta package that defines it's dependencies, defines them with specific version. These dependencies do exist and there is no conflicts, since none of them is currently installed. apt-get refuses to install these dependencies when the requested version is not the latest one. Do you know of a workaround?
[13:21] <hikenboot> anyone know if expanding an lvm volume to include second disk and doing a move to new volume effectively defrags an lvm volume?
[13:22] <cable> wondering how too add a path to PATH directory :)?
[13:22] <cable> *variable
[13:23] <cable> trying to have some more programs to run globally
[13:24] <Pa^2> !path
[13:25] <cable> thanks ubottu. :) trying to add a line to it.
[13:25] <cable> so I can run phpunit globally
[13:30] <TheBigDeal> can i remove the old linux kernel images?
[13:30] <TheBigDeal> like the 3.13 versions
[13:30] <calimero_82> hi guys
[13:30] <mgedmin> TheBigDeal, newer versions of ubuntu mark those as autoremovable, so you can sudo apt-get autoremove
[13:31] <mgedmin> TheBigDeal, older versions don't do that and you basically had to find out what versions you had installed (ls /boot was the way I used to do that)
[13:31] <mgedmin> and sudo apt-get remove linux-image-X.XX-YY-generic ... all of them
[13:31] <TheBigDeal> mgedmin, hmm, I don't know there's nothing to do autoremove to, but i can see some files
[13:31] <mgedmin> bash's {}-expansion helps here a lot, e.g.: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.13-{21,22,23,24,59}-generic
[13:31] <TheBigDeal> mgedmin, uname -r
[13:32] <mgedmin> just be sure you keep the latest kernel and the one you're currently running
[13:32] <TheBigDeal> mm
[13:32] <calimero_82> guys when you get the : system program problem detected , the name of the software that crashed where you see ? which folder ? I am not accidentally marked the name of the software crashed when I pressed on details
[13:32] <mgedmin> oh, make that sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove, that'll also remove the no-longer -headers packages iirc
[13:32] <TheBigDeal> mmmm
[13:32] <TheBigDeal> okay
[13:33] <mgedmin> calimero_82, it's somewhere in the details dialog; what do you mean "accidentally marked"?
[13:33] <mgedmin> btw all the crash dumps are text files in /var/crash (with huge base64-encoded core dumps inside)
[13:34] <Ben64> TheBigDeal: what version of ubuntu do you have
[13:34] <calimero_82> sorry mg__ mgedmin i'm using google translate
[13:34] <TheBigDeal> Ben64, Utopic unicorn
[13:35] <Ben64> TheBigDeal: then you should be able to apt-get autoremove for the old kernels
[13:35] <calimero_82> i mean: when it shows the issue, i don't have signed it and now i don't remeber the name of software crashed
[13:35] <OpenTokix> calimero_82: look in dmesg - it will say what generated the kernel issue. - But it is probably not related to the actual problem, but something else. - And my inital guess is always io-related.
[13:36] <TheBigDeal> Ben64, nothing to autoremove
[13:36] <Ben64> TheBigDeal: then you probably don't have extras
[13:37] <mgedmin> the autoremove method keeps the last 3 or 4 kernels "just in case"
[13:37] <TheBigDeal> hmm
[13:37] <mgedmin> e.g. I've four kernel packages on my 14.10 system and apt-get autoremove won't remove any
[13:37] <TheBigDeal> ok
[13:37] <TheBigDeal> mgedmin, got that
[13:38] <OpenTokix> TheBigDeal: If you want the latest and greatest kernel, there is instructions how to build a custom kernel. - I would never install a kernel-ppa in to my system. Since they might make mistakes, that will affect a lot. If you promptly need latest, build a kernel from your working config.
[13:38] <cfhowlett> 3 or 4? pretty sure autoremove doesn't retain more than most recent 2 kernels ...
[13:38] <mgedmin> (this is fine by me; what wasn't fine was when having two dozen old kernels filled up all the inodes in /)
[13:38]  * ubundo Ubuntu, Linux for homosexual being ..
[13:38] <ubundo> next best slogan ever!!
[13:38] <TheBigDeal> OpenTokix, hmm
[13:38] <OpenTokix> mgedmin: I wouldnt worry about kernels using up inodes in a filesystem, how did you come to that conclusion?
[13:39] <mgedmin> apt-get upgrade fails with an "out of disk space" error, df shows plenty of disk space, *headscratch* *headscratch* df -i *lightbulb*
[13:39] <calimero_82> OpenTokix:  i must write in the terminal dmesg ?
[13:39] <OpenTokix> TheBigDeal: there is "hooks" in the build tree to make a package file for a new kernel that is also portable between your systems.
[13:39] <OpenTokix> calimero_82: yes, or look in /var/log/dmesg
[13:39] <velho> mgedmin, can one go back with "autoremove"?
[13:39] <TheBigDeal> uh
[13:40] <calimero_82> thanks
[13:40] <mgedmin> velho, autoremove removes packages that aren't necessary; I don't know what you mean by "go back"
[13:40] <OpenTokix> mgedmin: I cant remember happen to me, not even once actually
[13:40] <mgedmin> if you want to reinstall packages that got removed by apt-get autoremove, use apt-get install
[13:40] <velho> ubundo, lol. You know, homosexuality is a human thing, in nature there is only heretosexuality and bi-sexuality
[13:40] <TheBigDeal> mgedmin, he meant recovering data i guess :(
[13:41] <iptable> velho: this is ubuntu support channel
[13:41] <TheBigDeal> hehe
[13:41] <mgedmin> apt-get autoremove shouldn't remove any data...
[13:41] <velho> mgedmin, "the autoremove method keeps the last 3 or 4 kernels "just in case""
[13:41] <TheBigDeal> !backup
[13:41] <mgedmin> unless you use --purge, I suppose
[13:41] <iptable> velho: and you are wrong. my female dog tried to rape my female cat once.
[13:41] <solsTiCe> I have added a file in /etc/modprobe.d with "options snd-hda-intel power_save=5" in it to auto power off sound chipset. but when I close and reopen the lid the sound intel module is reloaded but without the parameter being applied. how do i fix htat ?
[13:41] <velho> iptable, lol
[13:41] <mgedmin> velho, the "just in case" part is where a new kernel makes your system unbootable due to a bug, and then you can choose an older one from the GRUB boot menu
[13:41] <ubundo> nothing wrong with homosexuality indeed
[13:41] <mgedmin> (and then file a bug etc.)
[13:42] <velho> mgedmin, thanks you!
[13:42] <p3rror> hello
[13:42] <iptable> let's keep our opinions about sexuality private please. thanks
[13:42] <p3rror> I have to set a passive/active load blancing architecture
[13:42] <ubundo> if u guys are into it. I totally approve it.. big thumbs up u know what I mean
[13:42] <cfhowlett> ubundo, this has NOTHING to do with the channel topic.  move on to tech support issues.
[13:42] <p3rror> for that I will use for targets
[13:42] <cfhowlett> !ot | ubundo
[13:42] <p3rror> two running keepalived and two running haproxy
[13:43] <p3rror> oups sorry two runinng keepalived and haproxy
[13:43] <p3rror> and two running web servers
[13:43] <p3rror> my question is simple
[13:43] <p3rror> this architecture need to set a VIP
[13:44] <p3rror> must vip address has to be in the same subnet as the proxy servers ?
[13:44] <OpenTokix> p3rror: no
[13:44] <OpenTokix> p3rror: depends on the setup, more - are you useing direct routing, or do the webserver reside on a private network and the procies also do NAT?
[13:45] <OpenTokix> proxies*
[13:55] <p3rror> OpenTokix OK
[13:55] <p3rror> did you see the architecture
[13:55] <p3rror> so I must have three server with three differents IP address
[13:56] <p3rror> that are not reside in the same subnet
[13:57] <santhosh> hai how to enter the samba share in fstab ,,,but my samba nsharing is having spaces
[13:59] <santhosh> like //172.16.14.40/samba sharing
[13:59] <ikonia> santhosh: escape it samba\ sharing
 there is no quotation marks in that file to write in fstab
[14:00] <OpenTokix> p3rror: I didnt see anything
[14:00] <p3rror> http://four-eyes.net/2013/01/haproxy-keepalived-the-free-ha-load-balancer/
[14:00] <p3rror> OpenTokix take a look
[14:00] <ikonia> santhosh: question marks ?
[14:01] <p3rror> OpenTokix must "haproxy-1 public" and "haproxy-2 public" and VIP reside in the same subnet ?
[14:01] <OpenTokix> p3rror: Depends if you do NAT for your webservers or not
[14:02] <OpenTokix> p3rror: or, it dont -no they dont
[14:02] <OpenTokix> haproxy can proxy to other datacenters if you want it to
//172.16.13.40/"samba sharing"/ /home/santhosh/sam   cifs  username=xxx,passwd=xxx,domain=xxx 0 0
[14:03] <ikonia> santhosh: samba\ sharing
[14:03] <santhosh> but in that case it showing an error pls tell me how to write pls modified in above line
[14:03] <ikonia> santhosh: samba\ sharing
[14:04] <OpenTokix> or just dont use spaces in share-names
[14:04] <p3rror> OpenTokix please tell me what do you tell NAT
[14:04] <OpenTokix> p3rror: NAT, network address translation - commonly used in ipv4 networks
[14:04] <p3rror> I know NAT
[14:04] <toro71> ciao
[14:04] <p3rror> but here in load balancing
[14:04] <p3rror> I mean
[14:05] <p3rror> when the web server have a private address
[14:05] <p3rror> this is the case of NAT is it ?
[14:06] <OpenTokix> Not sure what you mean now
[14:07] <p3rror> I mean when I do NAT is the case where the webserver behind the proxy had a private IP adress
[14:08] <OpenTokix> Does it have a private ip now?
[14:08] <p3rror> no
[14:08] <sharperguy> What could cause lsof to block indefinitely?
[14:08] <OpenTokix> sharperguy: stale filesystems, or ioproblems in general
[14:09] <p3rror> sharperguy input/ouput error
[14:09] <OpenTokix> p3rror: basically haproxy can proxy to anything - and you just have to make sure the servers can send the reply back to the client.
[14:09] <sharperguy> p3rror, OpenTokix but what could cause those?
[14:10] <piknockyou> Hi there!
[14:10] <p3rror> OpenTokix the servers would have private or public address ?
[14:12] <OpenTokix> sharperguy: some kind of networking filesystem not working like nfs, cifs, or as p3rror said input/output errors.
[14:12] <OpenTokix> p3rror: dont matter actually
[14:12] <piknockyou> Someone just told me Ubuntu would not support Intel CPU's or at least not Intel Atom CPUs. I told him that makes no sense at all, Ubuntu would lose a considerable community, am I right? Have you heard anything about this issue?
[14:12] <sharperguy> OpenTokix, yeah i used strace and i think it was smbfs
[14:12] <OpenTokix> piknockyou: I run ubuntu fine on my intel atom-cpu
[14:13] <teraliv_> hi, can anybody point me to a good tutorial to update ruby from 1.9 on 2 on ubuntu 14.04 ?
[14:13] <mgedmin> piknockyou, maybe it was a garbled echo about dropping support for some ancient Pentium models?
[14:13] <piknockyou> Might be, I am going to ask for more details tomorrow. Thank you.
[14:14] <Samurairm> HI, I HAVE CONNECTED WITH MY PHONE MOTOROLA V3 USB PORT AS ACCEDO THE PHONE?
[14:14] <barretta> .xchat2/budus.so
[14:14] <mgedmin> dropping support for all Intel CPUs would be inconceivable at this point in time
[14:14] <mgedmin> maybe in 40 years when we're all on ARM128 machines?
[14:14] <Samurairm> excuse the uppercase
[14:16] <Samurairm> who help me to connected mi phone motorola v3?
[14:16] <piknockyou> Thanks a lot
[14:17] <piknockyou> Bye.
[14:18] <degva> Hello all, does anybody know why when I copy files the entire system slow down a lot?
[14:18] <ikonia> degva: you could be hitting IO limits
[14:22] <mbeasley> when trying to install certain deb packages, i keep getting a `dpkg-deb (subprocess): decompressing archive member: lzma error: compressed data is corrupt` errors. `apt-get clean` and `apt-get install -f` doesn't seem to help... anyone experienced this before?
[14:22] <inerkick> i'm getting this error when try to open pdf "File type plain text document (text/plain) is not supported" is it because all my pdf's are corrupted
[14:23] <loki_> mbeasley, i had this problem once, you can try to change location of your deb package source.
[14:23] <ikonia> mbeasley: what are you trying to install
[14:24] <mbeasley> loki_: you mean the actual location of the deb pkg?
[14:24] <mbeasley> ikonia: trying to remove chromium-browser and install google-chrome
[14:24] <antimist> um, anyone here? I got a bit of trouble, not sure how bad, but simply put, after restarting my font on Unity/Gnome/Ubuntu has changed to a slightly more ragged font instead of the Ubuntu font. Also, I notice that my timezone has changed. Any ideas?
[14:24] <ikonia> mbeasley: how are you trying to remove, lets walk through it one at a time
[14:25] <mbeasley> ikonia: sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
[14:25] <ikonia> mbeasley: did that work ?
[14:25] <Paramezius> vino vnc does not work in ubuntu14.04
[14:25] <Paramezius> any idea?
[14:25] <mbeasley> ikonia: nope.
[14:25] <ikonia> mbeasley: what happened ?
[14:26] <loki_> mbeasley, yes! apt sources i mean
[14:26] <mbeasley> ikonia: `reading package list... Done \ Building dependency tree... 50%` and then it exits
[14:27] <ikonia> mbeasley: please run the remove command and pastebin the full output into pastebin.ubuntu.com
[14:27] <ikonia> mbeasley: can't work with snippets
[14:28] <mbeasley> ikonia: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9427748/
[14:29] <ceed^> How do I set it so I can maximize/minimize a window from the Unity launcher? Do I still have to use the Compiz configuator for that?
[14:29] <ikonia> mbeasley: thats not the full output
[14:29] <mbeasley> ikonia: unfortunately, it is...
[14:30] <ikonia> mbeasley: what happens next ? how does that exit ?
[14:31] <mbeasley> ikonia: well, it's exiting with a code other than 0, as i have my prompt setup to show non-0 exits. but there's no other message
[14:31] <ikonia> mbeasley: does it exit to the prompt ?
[14:31] <mbeasley> ikonia: yes
[14:31] <ikonia> mbeasley: thats not shown in the past
[14:31] <ikonia> paste
[14:32] <ikonia> mbeasley: can you please run "sudo apt-get update" in a pastebin and paste the output
[14:32] <ikonia> (pastebin)
[14:33] <pbx> mbeasley, any clues in the apt log?  e.g. http://dpaste.com/3CAXYF4#wrap
[14:33] <mgedmin> "lzma error: compressed data is corrupt" is a clue
[14:34] <mgedmin> now either the .deb is corrupted on the mirror (unlikely, people would notice) or it got corrupted in your /var/cache/apt
[14:34] <ikonia> no its not
[14:34] <mgedmin> or it got corrupted after being read into RAM, which sometimes happens with flaky RAM
[14:34] <Laddu> remove apt cache
[14:34] <ikonia> as it's doing this on a remove
[14:34] <ikonia> lets get some more detail before the random guessing starts
[14:35] <sarthor> Hi, again , I have 3 directories, in one folder, naming. DEBIAN  etc  usr , I want them as somefile.deb How can I do it, And where i got these files, I extraced some .deb file, made some changes, now I want these same as before. HELP, googled buy failing.
[14:35] <mbeasley> ikonia: sudo apt-get update, exits 0 to prompt: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9427818/
[14:36] <ikonia> mbeasley: lot of third party repos in there
[14:39] <mbeasley> ikonia: i think the only that i've added are spotify, dropbox and mopidy
[14:40] <ikonia> mbeasley: if you do an sudo apt-get autoremove what happens ?
[14:43] <mbeasley> ikonia: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9427877/
[14:44] <ikonia> mbeasley: may want to clear down your sudo lock file, maybe even just reboot to get to a clean platform state before going forward
[14:45] <mgedmin> read-only filesystem?  any filesystem error messages in dmesg?
[14:45] <ikonia> it's not a read only file system
[14:46] <loki_> that sudo lock..
[14:46] <ikonia> re-read the error
[14:46] <mgedmin> "Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock"
[14:46] <mgedmin> granted, it's not the 1st error
[14:46] <ikonia> that is not a read only file system
[14:46] <mgedmin> why would a dpkg lock file be read-only?
[14:47] <ikonia> many reasons
[14:47] <mgedmin> the thing is, if mbeasley reboots now, they won't be able to see if dmesg contains any fs error messages
[14:47] <ikonia> hence why I'm suggesting you clear it down - reboot and move forward from a clean platform
[14:47] <mgedmin> hence why I'm suggesting checking dmesg now, before rebooting
[14:47] <loki_> ikonia, but what about that sudo error
[14:47] <ikonia> mgedmin: you're just randomly guessing at things
[14:47] <mbeasley> mgedmin: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/9427899/
[14:48] <loki_> ahaha
[14:48] <ikonia> cool
[14:48] <mgedmin> ouch, that is serious
[14:48] <ikonia> that doesn't have to be serious
[14:48] <mgedmin> in my book filesystem corruption is a serious problem
[14:48] <mbeasley> :(
[14:48] <ikonia> it's just got a conflict due to an unclear journal write
[14:49] <mbeasley> the start of all of this was that chromium-browser was segfaulting left and right
[14:49] <ikonia> mbeasley: if it can't write, thats a good reason
[14:49] <mbeasley> sure
[14:49] <mgedmin> there are two possibilities for fs corruption: bad hardware or a software bug
[14:49] <ikonia> there are many reasons for file system corruption
[14:49] <ikonia> it's not black and white
[14:50] <mgedmin> anyway I have to go, I'd recommend running memtest86 on this machine
[14:50] <ikonia> what???
[14:50] <ikonia> a file system error and you want to run memtest ???
[14:51] <b100s> hi2all
[14:51] <sarthor> Hi, again , I have 3 directories, in one folder, naming. DEBIAN  etc  usr , I want them as somefile.deb How can I do it, And where i got these files, I extraced some .deb file, made some changes, now I want these same as before. HELP, googled buy failing.
[14:51] <mbeasley> ikonia: still suggest a reboot?
[14:52] <ikonia> mbeasley: yeah, it should try an autofsck on reboot and you'll know the state a bit more
[14:52] <ikonia> mbeasley: maybe worth to backup any data you need
[14:52] <b100s> when i lock my screen for went out my norebook start extremly noising ... looks like hight CPU usage... waht can be?
[14:52] <OpenTokix> degva: Are you by any chance copying to a usb-drive?
[14:52] <mbeasley> ikonia: okay. i'll be back in a bit. thanks for the help (and to everyone else as well)
[14:59] <Peanut> Howdy. I have a virtual machine that seems a bit unhappy. It is set up to use the serial console, but I seem to not get the grub menu, and the boot hangs for a while, then the usual messages start showing up. However, I also get 'The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present' which is probably a bogus message masking another problem. Then it says 'starting system logging deamon', and the VM uses 100% but never gets networking or a console login, so I 
[15:01] <a7i3n> You are using Virtualbox?
[15:01] <Peanut> a7i3n: sorry no, kvm. The guest is running 14.04
[15:01] <a7i3n> OK - don't know that so can't help except to say you might want to check your settings...
[15:02] <Peanut> So I've rebooted and restarted the VM several times, but I can't actually get access to it and it keeps getting stuck at 100% CPU use.
[15:02] <degva> OpenTokix: Yes
[15:03] <OpenTokix> degva: Yes, usb is a crappy thing that uses a lot of cpu for operations, somewhat better iwth usb3 - but only slightly. - So it is blocking io with many many software interrupts, that is why your compute slows down to a crawl when copying to usb.
[15:04] <mbeasley> ikonia: so, rebooted - ubuntu caught an error at the root of the fs (/) and asked if i wanted to fix, ignore, skip or manually address the error - I opted for fix and was able to boot fine after that.
[15:06] <mbeasley> ikonia: issues with apt-get are now resolved. thanks for the help
[15:11] <Es0teric> question — when you want to see a log file update live on the command line its `tail -f <file>` right?
[15:12] <Peanut> Es0teric: correct
[15:12] <Es0teric> Peanut: alright.. i just want to make sure, thanks
[15:13] <gustavo_> Error to try convert .avi to .iso in devede. It seems a bug in Mencoder. How to fix it ?

[15:17] <LinuxGold> is there a way to list all devices and what drivers are installed?

[15:21] <LinuxGold> thanks!
[15:21] <rberg_> LinuxGold: this should show you all the installed drivers in use or not "find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name *.ko"
[15:22] <Chuck_Norris> LinuxGold: idk about inavtive but, there is a folder containing all modules /lib/modules/...

[15:30] <njsg> how do I install firefox ESR in ubuntu (that is, instead of always installing the newest version, install the newest ESR)
[15:31] <ikonia> ESR ?
[15:31] <njsg> it's to firefox as LTS is to ubuntu
[15:31] <LinuxGold> https://launchpad.net/~team-esr/+archive/ubuntu/firefox-esr
[15:32] <ikonia> njsg: if there isn't a package provided in the ubuntu main repo - I wouldn't look at it
[15:32] <ikonia> firefox is too well linked to the desktop enviornent to risk causing conflicts with ppa's
[15:33] <zleap> hi
[15:33] <OpenTokix> ikonia: how is it linked in the desktop? with what?

[15:44] <juned> hi guys anyone know how to open turbo c through dos box
[15:44] <ikonia> same as you would through windows
[15:44] <ikonia> through dos sorry
[15:45] <ikonia> load dos box, launch the program
[15:45] <juned> when i launch dos box and type command cd tc cd bin he got error
[15:46] <ikonia> so thatsa  problem with tubro c / dos box
[15:46] <ikonia> not an ubuntu issue
[15:47] <juned> how to fix it
[15:47] <ikonia> depends on the error
[15:47] <ikonia> most likley talk to the turbo C application support
[15:48] <Chuck_Norris> zleap: for partitions: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step
[15:48] <juned> it was write mount c
[15:48] <juned> what is this
[15:49] <ikonia> juned: that makes no sense
[15:49] <Chuck_Norris> sry for the delay i am watching some urban terror videos :p
[15:52] <r_a_x> i am having an executable file in ~ dir, whenever i type the name of that file, terminal  displays the whole path and say no such file or directory ??
[15:54] <Peanut> r_a_x: what kind of file? Is it some script (shell/python/perl) or a binary? What does 'file <filename>' say?
[15:55] <therealtbe> help - cannot upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10
[15:56] <r_a_x> Peanut, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9428704/
[15:56] <therealtbe> #1400373
[15:56] <therealtbe> ubottu, bug #1400373
[15:56] <Peanut> r_a_x: ok, that's odd. Can you show as well what happens what happens when you try to execute it, the exact output?
[15:57] <therealtbe> help - cannot upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10,  I followed all the instructions to post the bug report here:   https://launchpad.net/bugs/1400373
[15:57] <r_a_x> Peanut, I gets the following error bash: /home/rax/osproject/blitzTools/asm: No such file or directory
[15:57] <Chuck_Norris> r_a_x: try "./executable"
[15:58] <r_a_x> Chuck_Norris, same error
[15:58] <Chuck_Norris> and: ./home/rax/osproject/blitzTools/asm ?
[15:58] <Peanut> so 'file /home/rax/osproject/blitzTools/asm' gives you the output from pastebin, whereas trying to execute the file gives you 'No such file or directory' ?
[15:59] <xangua> therealtbe: do you have unnoficial packages/repositories¿ thid party repositories, PPA's, deb installed manually
[15:59] <r_a_x> Peanut, yes
[15:59] <therealtbe> xangua, No.
[15:59] <Peanut> rax: ouput of ls -l <full pathname of file> ?
[15:59] <therealtbe> xangua, to be sure, I disabled third party, and checked.
[16:00] <r_a_x> Chuck_Norris, same error
[16:00] <xangua> therealtbe: then you do have (¿)
[16:00] <therealtbe> xangua, I had the google chrome ppa's in the list, I disabled them
[16:01] <therealtbe> xangua, would you like me to post my sources.list or something ?
[16:01] <xangua> therealtbe: disabling a third party repository won't disable the packages it installed
[16:01] <mcphail> therealtbe: you'd need to purge them
[16:01] <therealtbe> mcphail, how would I know which them are them
[16:01] <r_a_x> Peanut, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9428736/
[16:01] <therealtbe> it doesn't even tell me why it failed to calculate!!
[16:02] <mcphail> therealtbe: apt-cache policy <packagename> will tell you where a package came from
[16:02] <diphtherial> hey, so i recently installed ubuntu 14.10 on an asus zenbook ux303ln, but it seems the touchpad is just seen as a normal mouse
[16:02] <mcphail> therealtbe: ppa-purge can help you get rid of ppa packages but may break things
[16:02] <diphtherial> i've found a fix, but it's apparently a replacement kernel that includes the focaltech touchpad driver? am i going to hose my install by attempting to use it?
[16:02] <Peanut> r_a_x: odd that it has 'x' but not 'r' for 'other' and 'group'.
[16:02] <therealtbe> how am I supposed to know why it failed to calculate upgrade when it doesn't even say??
[16:02] <wow> anyone have idea how to install c compiler
[16:03] <therealtbe> i'm not just going to go purging things randomly!!
[16:03] <Peanut> wow: apt-get install gcc
[16:03] <cfhowlett> !info gcc | wow,
[16:03] <r_a_x> Peanut, I copied this file from my previous version of ubuntu
[16:03] <Peanut> r_a_x: what version are you running now, and is it 32 or 64 bits?
[16:03] <mcphail> therealtbe: when you leave the comfortable world of the distribution package management there isn't an easy way back, I'm afraid
[16:03] <xangua> therealtbe: you already said you have google repository, uninstall google chrome, run apt-get autoremove when done
[16:04] <r_a_x> Peanut, 14.04 62
[16:04] <Peanut> r_a_x: 32 or 64? 62 is err.. unlikely ;-)
[16:04] <therealtbe> it fails for a specific reason!  why doesn't it say!  @ mcphail, xangua
[16:04] <r_a_x> Peanut, 64 but
[16:04] <r_a_x> Peanut, 64 bit
[16:04] <Peanut> r_a_x: Your binary is 32 bits.
[16:04] <xangua> therealtbe: it does, you already told us you have a third party repository
[16:05] <therealtbe> IT DOES NOT SAY WHY IT FAILED
[16:05] <ikonia> don't type in caps please
[16:05] <ikonia> there is no need for it
[16:05] <xangua> ...
[16:05] <r_a_x> Peanut, there is no backward compatibility??
[16:05] <diphtherial> i guess my question in general is this: how common is it to have to install a custom kernel that supports your laptop's hw properly?
[16:05] <ikonia> diphtherial: nonexistant
[16:05] <Peanut> r_a_x: There is, but it requires some steps.
[16:05] <mcphail> therealtbe: no point getting angry. If you've installed from PPA's then apt will not be able to calculate an upgrade path
[16:05] <cfhowlett> diphtherial, you're looking for a frequency distribution?  really?
[16:05] <diphtherial> ikonia: ah, hrm :\ it would be nice to have a fully functional touchpad, but in that case maybe it's not worth the risk...
[16:06] <therealtbe> mcphail, why doesn't apt say that then.
[16:06] <k1l_> therealtbe: remove the PPAs with ppa-purge
[16:06] <diphtherial> cfhowlett: you're right, it was a stupid question
[16:06] <diphtherial> i guess i was hoping to get a feel for the risk/reward tradeoff
[16:06] <Peanut> r_a_x: http://askubuntu.com/questions/454253/how-to-run-32-bit-app-in-ubuntu-64-bit
[16:06] <ikonia> diphtherial: why do you think your trackpad problems are a kernel problem ?
[16:06] <mcphail> therealtbe: it isn't designed to say that. PPA's have been hacked on to existing package management. Apt is designed to work in a world without PPAs
[16:06] <cfhowlett> diphtherial, rather let's say "inelegantly phrased".  a "common" OEM shouldn't need that step, though.
[16:06] <wow> this is not work peanut
[16:07] <diphtherial> ikonia: i've found a thread where a guy put together a custom kernel that includes support for the touchpad for my particular model
[16:07] <diphtherial> here it is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1372609
[16:07] <Peanut> wow: what error message did you get?
[16:07] <ikonia> diphtherial: does the kernel you are using not contain support ?
[16:07] <ikonia> diphtherial: I'm asking why you think it's the kernel thats a problem
[16:07] <wow> yas
[16:07] <r_a_x> Peanut, thanks
[16:07] <diphtherial> ikonia: it recognizes the touchpad as a ps/2 mouse, as mentioned in this thread
[16:07] <ikonia> diphtherial: what does ?
[16:07] <mcphail> therealtbe: I use a lot of PPAs and don't bother trying to do an update. I reinstall from new
[16:07] <ikonia> diphtherial: xorg ?
[16:07] <therealtbe> mcphail, good for you.
[16:08] <diphtherial> if you scroll down in the comments you'll see that mattias gottschlag identified and created a patch that includes focaltech support
[16:08] <therealtbe> the update manage told me to upgrade, so I clicked it
[16:08] <therealtbe> the upgrader said it failed, and to file a bug report, so I did
[16:08] <diphtherial> ikonia: um, not sure; i'm kind of a newbie when it comes to hardware config
[16:08] <Peanut> r_a_x: did it work, can you run the program now?
[16:08] <therealtbe> it does not say why it failed, so I have no choice but to come here and ask
[16:08] <r_a_x> Peanut, I am trying installing it
[16:08] <therealtbe> how am I suppsoed to know what ppa's to purge ??
[16:09] <diphtherial> ikonia: in /proc/bus/input/devices, i see a ps/2 mouse in the device list when just the touchpad is connected, as corroborated by the link i posted
[16:09] <xangua> therealtbe: you already told us the only third party repository you have is google's
[16:09] <mcphail> therealtbe: You have to purge any ppa you added. You get a warning you have to do this when you add a ppa in the first place
[16:09] <diphtherial> it's the exact problem mentioned there
[16:09] <therealtbe> xangua, mcphail where is the list of ppas that I need to purge
[16:10] <MTip> hi guys
[16:10] <MTip> any way to run itunes in ubuntu?
[16:10] <xangua> therealtbe: you just were there, you said you disabled it; software centre-edit-sources, enable it back, apt-get update and remove google chrome
[16:10] <cfhowlett> MTip, no
[16:11] <MTip> okay, any way to upload mp3 to i-device?
[16:11] <cfhowlett> !itunes | MTip
[16:11] <mcphail> MTip: not satisfactorily, as far as I have found
[16:11] <therealtbe> I have to remove google-chrome to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 ??
[16:12] <MTip> banse do not 'understand' my old player
[16:12] <mcphail> MTip: lots of programs work for a while, then apple changes the encryption on the database and they break again. Most people have given up since the rise of Android
[16:13] <cfhowlett> MTip, complain to apple or change your ecosystem.  you DO have alternatives
[16:13] <MTip> i see...
[16:13] <pseubodot> The 14.10 netinst (on amd64 and i386) complains about kernel module version mismatch and cannot complete installation; ('anna: WARNING ** no packages matching running kernel 3.16.0-24-generic in archive'). Netinst build is 352 (dated 22-Oct-2014)
[16:13] <diphtherial> so, i guess the question boils down to this: do i install this modified 3.16 kernel that includes focaltech touchpad support?
[16:13] <mcphail> MTip: if you have a very old player you could consider installing Rockbox on it: much better audio and a drag-and-drop interface
[16:13] <diphtherial> i'm not sure what the drawbacks are of using a previous version of the kernel; i just installed 14.10 yesterday, and i'm not sure what kernel version it's using
[16:13] <diphtherial> according to the guy who's maintaining the focaltech fix on the 3.16 kernel, he's kept it "up to date", whatever that means
[16:14] <kqr> hey awesome people! lspci reports my NIC as Intel Corporation Wireless 7260, which according to intel themselves should be supported in the 3.13+ kernels. the ubuntu live USB doesn't seem to agree – I can't connect to any wireless networks. does anyone know why this might be?
[16:14] <MTip> i have ipod nano 6
[16:14] <kqr> (I run the 3.16 kernel in ubuntu 14.10)
[16:14] <MTip> no chances to install there any i think
[16:14] <Peanut> pseubodot: It can happen that your netinst is serving a kernel that is older and not working with the udebs being served at the moment. Simply download the latest netboot.tar.gz and put it on your tftp server, that should fix it. Happened to me a few weeks ago too.
[16:15] <pseubodot> Peanut: Understood. There is no more recent build on http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-i386/
[16:16] <mcphail> diphtherial: unlikely to have any problems running a 3.16 kernel. Alternatively you could compile 3.17 and try applying the patch to that. You can always select the original kernel from the bootloader
[16:16] <pseubodot> Peanut: ditto no newer netinst on http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/utopic/main/installer-i386/
[16:16] <pseubodot> Peanut: netboot.tar.gz files all date 22-Oct-2014
[16:16] <mcphail> diphtherial: patching and compiling a kernel is easier than you'd think
[16:17] <pseubodot> Peanut: ditto us.archive.ubuntu.com
[16:18] <Peanut> pseubodot: try #ubuntu-installer, those people know about that stuff in great detail.
[16:18] <pseubodot> Peanut: Thanks for the pointer
[16:19] <Peanut> Is ranting allowed? I've been trying to get a virtual machine to boot for hours, and thanks to the wonders of upstart, parallel booting and splash screens? I have NO idea what is going wrong, but at some point in the boot process, it gets stuck at 100% CPU load.
[16:20] <Peanut> VM boots fine in rescue mode.
[16:20] <mcphail> Peanut: ? try adding nomodeset to the boot parameters. (No idea if that would help in a vm but neither will it do any harm)
[16:21] <k1l_> Peanut: so see dmesg from the last unsuccesful booting
[16:21] <k1l_> if you want to see the mesages on the screen remove "quiet" and "splash" form the grub kernel booting line.
[16:22] <therealtbe> I have to remove google-chrome to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 ??
[16:22] <therealtbe> this is a requirement?
[16:22] <Peanut> I get "The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present"
[16:24] <therealtbe> how do I see a list of PPAs so I know what to purge??
[16:25] <k1l_> Peanut: what setup is this with the partitions?
[16:25] <k1l_> therealtbe: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d"
[16:25] <Peanut> k1l_: just a single virtual partition vda1 (served over a gluster filesystem). No swap even.
[16:26] <xangua> therealtbe: it seems to me you don't really want to upgrade to 14.10, and just "do what the update manager tells you"; do you really want to upgrade to 14.10 now? you can just stick to 14.04, it has 4 and a half years more of support
[16:26] <r_a_x> Peanut, thanks got it working
[16:26] <therealtbe> my wifi does not work in 14.04 so yes I want to ugprade @ xangua
[16:26] <k1l_> so that might be an issue? i am not familiar with glusterFS
[16:26] <Peanut> r_a_x: thanks for the feedback, good luck with that :-)
[16:28] <xangua> therealtbe: so you want to fix the real problem, wich you haven't told until just now, doing another thing
[16:29] <therealtbe> I want to upgrade to the latest release so that I have the best chance of wifi driver support
[16:29] <therealtbe> if the upgrader fails to calculate, it should tell why.  that is obvious logic
[16:30] <poiuqwer> I can't for the life of me figure out how to configure lvm over luks using the ubuntu installer.
[16:30] <xangua> therealtbe: maybe you should first focus in the real problem, and start giving details about what computer model, wifi adapter, since when this began and so on. http://www.perlmonks.org/?node=XY+Problem
[16:30] <poiuqwer> Is there any way to manually install ubuntu? The installer just won't do what I want. I've done this manually with Arch and Fedora.
[16:31] <therealtbe> I don't care about wifi right now stop avoiding my questions!
[16:31] <cfhowlett> therealtbe, do you know what wifi chipset you have?
[16:31] <therealtbe> I want to know why the upgrade cannot be calculated!
[16:31] <therealtbe> I have followed the instructions and posted the bug as requested
[16:31] <mcphail> poiuqwer: what problem have you been having?
[16:31] <therealtbe> ubottu, bug #1400373
[16:31] <therealtbe> there is all the information requested ^
[16:31] <mcphail> therealtbe: we have told you that many times already
[16:31] <poiuqwer> Well I actually used the fedora installer with manual partitioning, but at least it listened to me.
[16:32] <therealtbe> mcphail, how do I find why calculating the upgrade failed??
[16:32] <poiuqwer> Where listening means recognized the LVM over LUKS partition I manually created
[16:33] <k1l_> therealtbe: get rid of your PPAs that seem to mess the package system
[16:33] <therealtbe> k1l_, gladly,  can you tell me how to get a list of suspect PPAs ?
[16:33] <k1l_> therealtbe: i already told you how to get a list of your PPAs. all of them can be the issue
[16:34] <mcphail> therealtbe: as already mentioned, all of your ppas are suspect and all must go. You have been told how to check which ppas are installed from the GUI and command line
[16:34] <therealtbe> ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/   listsl   google-chrome.list
[16:34] <squinty> therealtbe:  alternately just remove them via Software and Updates > Other su
[16:34] <therealtbe> how do I remove google-chrome
[16:34] <squinty> sources tab
[16:39] <codeberry> join #cloudstack
[16:39] <therealtbe> squinty, I followed your suggestions and removed all the PPAs that were extra
[16:39] <therealtbe> the upgrade still cannot be calculated
[16:40] <therealtbe> "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade"
[16:41] <MonkeyDust> therealtbe  try sudo apt-get autoremove, then restart
[16:41] <pbx> seconded
[16:41] <umib0zu> hey all. is there anyone with aws experience? I'm trying to port forward 80 to something above 1024 and was wondering if iptables is the only way to do this.
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> umib0zu: are you behind a router?
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: can you pastebin the full output of:   sudo apt-get update
[16:43] <therealtbe> yes 1 second, still on the autoremove suggestion
[16:44] <umib0zu> ActionParsnip I am. I'm just spinning up an ubuntu instance on aws. the default firewall that they have basically only allows requests to port 80, but I want to run a web app on the server. I tried some odd iptables documentation on aws too since apparently this requires sudo but I'm not even sure if this is the right way to go.
[16:44] <MonkeyDust> therealtbe  tip: don't use too many ppa's, now you know why
[16:44] <nielio_> hello are there intel drivers for 32 bit in 14.10?
[16:44] <nielio_> cant find any
[16:45] <cfhowlett> nielio_, driver for what?
[16:45] <nielio_> intel graphics
[16:45] <cfhowlett> nielio_, get them directly from intel
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> umib0zu: you could use a different IP on the router to go to the other service
[16:45] <nielio_> I am so used to arch >.>
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> nielio_: omgubuntu has a guide for that
[16:46] <nielio_> can you point me at it?
[16:46] <LinuxGold> [detached]
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> nielio_: are the stock drivers not playing nice?
[16:46] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, MonkeyDust,   full output of "sudo apt-get update"  is here:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/9429227/
[16:46] <umib0zu> ActionParsnip what do you mean by router by the way? I think I don't know what you mean.
[16:46] <nielio_> very not nice
[16:46] <cfhowlett> nielio_, https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads
[16:46] <nielio_> cfhowlett, no 14.10 support
[16:46] <cfhowlett> nielio_, but true >>> I don't see the 32 bit either.
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: Utopic is only supportd til July next year you know...Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019
[16:47] <cfhowlett> nielio_, if INTEL doesn't have them, you have a choice to make ^^^
[16:47] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, ok but my wifi is broken :(
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> umib0zu: the thing giving your house web access, its a router
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: ahh makes sense
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: ok, run:   sudo do-release-upgrade
[16:48] <therealtbe> I can't it doesn't work :(((
[16:48] <umib0zu> yup ActionHotDog
[16:48] <therealtbe> ubottu, bug #1400373
[16:48] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, I followed all the reporting instructions after do-release-upgrade could not calculate upgrade, and the info is on that bug post #1400373
[16:48] <ikonia> not really a bug
[16:48] <ikonia> thats caused by ppas
[16:49] <nielio_> compiling the source
[16:49] <ikonia> the docs say remove ppas
[16:49] <therealtbe> ikonia, I have removed the ppas.
[16:49] <nielio_> this is the ONE thing thats 100% easier on arch
[16:49] <ikonia> therealtbe: yes, but it's been done too late
[16:49] <therealtbe> wtf does that mean
[16:49] <ikonia> nielio_: don't be sill
[16:49] <ikonia> nielio_: compiling is the same on any distro
[16:49] <therealtbe> it's been done too late ?
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: seems that gnuplot is causing the issue from https://launchpadlibrarian.net/192109604/VarLogDistupgradeAptlog.txt
[16:50] <Sansay> Hey guys a file as accidently deleted off my system a few hours ago, is there a way to try to recover it?
[16:50] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, thanks, I will remove that right now
[16:50] <nielio_> at this point not even sure what it wants
[16:50] <intx> d
[16:50] <ikonia> nielio_: why are you compiling software ?
[16:51] <nielio_> trying to get the intel 32 it libs
[16:51] <nielio_> for opengl
[16:51] <ikonia> there are opengl packages in the repo I believe
[16:51] <Blaster> Hey I have a Linux machine hosting a samba share, and then a linux guest acting as smb client, but symlinks created by host to other directories outside the share aren't accessible by client, and I have wide links and follow symlinks enabled. What gives?
[16:51] <nielio_> I cant find them if there are
[16:52] <cfhowlett> nielio_, get source code.  compile.  done.  https://download.01.org/gfx/src/intel-linux-graphics-installer_1.0.7.tar.gz
[16:52] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, you were correct, after removing gnuplot the upgrade is proceeding.  thanks for your help
[16:52] <vlatko> l,čl,č,čl,č,ć,č,ćk
[16:52] <cfhowlett> vlatko, eh, what?
[16:52] <mcphail> nielio_: are you running 32 or 64 bit just now?
[16:52] <nielio_> 64
[16:52] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, how would I have ever figured this out on my own?  how did you know to check that librarian link?
[16:52] <ikonia> nielio_: the packages are called mesa
[16:52] <vlatko> whats this?????
[16:52] <cfhowlett> vlatko, this is ubuntu support.  read the topic
[16:52] <therealtbe> !ru > vlatko
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> therealtbe: all I did was read your files that you uploaded with your bug.....
[16:52] <mcphail> nielio_: you can force the install of 32 bit packages. Have you tried that?
[16:53] <MonkeyDust> therealtbe  making progress?
[16:53] <squinty> Sansay:  testdisk might be able to recover it.  should be in repo's
[16:53] <therealtbe> ActionParsnip, ah I wish it told me that gnuplot was the culprit.  or had -vvv verbose option
[16:53] <Sansay> could you help me write a command to check?
[16:53] <therealtbe> MonkeyDust, 6% and churning
[16:54] <nielio_> compiling mesa
[16:54] <vlatko> cool
[16:54] <mcphail> nielio_: you absolutely shouldn't have to compile mesa
[16:55] <nielio_> should mesa-utils cover it?
[16:55] <ikonia> nielio_: what do you actually want to do ?
[16:55] <vlatko> how to write comments ?
[16:56] <nielio_> I want to run 32 bit games so I need 32 bit opengl drivers
[16:56] <bubbasaures> vlatko, THis is support is all.
[16:56] <ikonia> nielio_: this is just going to end up in a mess for you
[16:56] <ikonia> apologies for being negative, but this is just going to become a mess
[16:56] <a5414> why ?
[16:56] <nielio_> so I should just switch back to arch >.>
[16:56] <ikonia> I assume you're on 64bit nielio_
[16:56] <mcphail> ikonia: not if he does it properly
[16:57] <nielio_> yep
[16:57] <ikonia> mcphail: of course, but he's not doing it properly
[16:57] <mcphail> ikonia: that's why i was trying to stop him ... :)
[16:57] <nielio_> well what is the proper way to do it?
[16:58] <nielio_> in 14.04 it looks easy
[16:58] <vlatko> i need support, how to write comments in unix command line
[16:58] <cfhowlett> vlatko, this is not unix.  go to ##unix
[16:59] <mcphail> nielio_: Ubuntu can install i386 versions of libraries by appending :1386 to the apt-command line. Installing a 32 bit games package (such as steam) will usually install all the 32 bit libraries you'll ever need
[16:59] <vlatko> how?
[16:59] <cfhowlett> vlatko, /join ##unix
[16:59] <tirengarfio> I have no sound on ubuntu 14.04, but I get the drum sound after login out
[16:59] <nielio_> oh installing steam does it
[17:00] <nielio_> ubuntu is so strange
[17:00] <mcphail> nielio_: you don't need to install steam to do it but it conveniently pulls in lots of needed packages
[17:00] <nielio_> well thanks guys
[17:00] <nielio_> praise gaben!
[17:00] <isoblock> tirengarfio: have you looked under settings>sound>applications?
[17:01] <vlatko> there is no one in ##unix :S
[17:01] <tirengarfio> isoblock, I have xfce4 installed so I have audio mixer and pulse audio
[17:01] <tirengarfio> I have touch a lot but I can not find the problem..
[17:02] <vlatko> no one is replying :(
[17:02] <nielio_> well now I have a billion libs lol
[17:02] <cfhowlett> vlatko, linux is not unix.  use the correct tools.
[17:02] <therealtbe> vlatko, comments go into a file, not on command line.  are you trying to edit a file?
[17:03] <isoblock> tirengarfio: i have no experience with said problems
[17:04] <Generator_> http://fpaste.org/157695/58247141/ getting this error while trying to update and upgrade
[17:05] <vlatko> how to run a script that is in a file?
[17:06] <bunu_> Hello. I had a problem building trojita on ubuntu 14.10. I was guided here from their channel. It is a cmake error. Could somebody look at these links:http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=23077991654143292441
[17:06] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Show the full update and upgrade
[17:06] <Generator_> ok
[17:07] <bunu_> and: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=52814490533727172258
[17:07] <Generator_> bubbasaures i am also getting this error while installing and "dpkg --configure -a"
[17:08] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Do you have any broken packages or ones held, that is why the full info helps
[17:08] <Generator_> bubbasaures yes pastebining it :P
[17:08] <OerHeks> bunu_, did you read this page too? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps/EmailClient
[17:09] <a5414> any1 playing the mana world ?
[17:10] <bunu_> actually I am building the qt4 version OerHeks
[17:10] <bshacklett> Can anyone tell me how to test the built-in name resolver in Ubuntu? If I understand correctly, dig and nslookup will only test DNS, but won't take nsswitch.conf into account. Am I right?
[17:10] <Generator_> http://fpaste.org/157701/80586021/ bubbasaures
[17:10] <tirengarfio> no idea about my sound problems?
[17:10] <OerHeks> bunu_, did you when prompted for CMake flags, use -DWITH_UBUNTU=on ?
[17:10] <isoblock> Generator_ and bubbasaures, dpkg --configure -c?
[17:11] <bubbasaures> Generator_, "1 not fully installed or removed" is probably the issue, I can't tell what it is however.
[17:12] <Generator_> bubbasaures how can i solve this ?
[17:12] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Not sure, however we now have more info to work with, lots of good help here, just takes some patience. ;)
[17:13] <Generator_> :)
[17:14] <isoblock> Generator_: try "sudo apt-get update........."
[17:14] <Generator_> isoblock i am running as root though
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> !find trojita
[17:15] <isoblock> have you tried -f ?
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> bunu_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/482737/how-do-i-install-a-click-package-on-ubuntu-touch-trojita
[17:15] <bunu_> OerHeks I have tried now. It does not change anything. Did you read that I am trying to build the desktop version?
[17:15] <Generator_> no
[17:16] <OerHeks> bunu_, yes, but it started as a phone/touch app. and still in development
[17:16] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Rooted terminal?
[17:16] <Generator_> yes
[17:17] <bubbasaures> Generator_, ubuntu is designed for sudo is all be careful doing that.
[17:18] <Generator_> https://hellocoding.wordpress.com/2014/06/08/sub-process-usr-bin-dpkg-returned-error-1/ bubbasaures i dont knw will this work or not
[17:18] <mcphail> Generator_: how did you start the update? was it from the terminal or the GUI notification?
[17:18] <Generator_> mcphail terminal
[17:18] <bunu_> I do not understand. I mean the one you can see here http://trojita.flaska.net/screenshots.html
[17:19] <mcphail> Generator_: did you do an update immediately before the upgrade or did you go straight to upgrade?
[17:20] <Generator_> mcphail i tried to install MariaDB, then got the error for the 1st time
[17:21] <mcphail> Generator_: had you run "apt-get update" recently before trying to install?
[17:21] <Generator_> no
[17:21] <mcphail> Generator_: and is maridb in the default packages or have you installed a ppa?
[17:21] <Generator_> default
[17:22] <mcphail> Generator_: i suspect it is a simple case of stale packages. Does "apt-get update" run successfully or produce an error?
[17:22] <Generator_> runs successfully mcphail
[17:22] <Danielc1234> Hi all, we just switched to sendmail and now all our forms are no longer being sent off the server. Is there a way to tell ubuntu to just default to sendmail? Or do I have to change all my forms?
[17:23] <mcphail> Generator_: next, try "apt-get install --reinstall mariadb" (or whatever the package was called)
[17:23] <Generator_> ok
[17:24] <Generator_> mcphail then ? produced the same error
[17:24] <mcphail> Generator_: OK. Next, run "apt-get remove --purge mariadb"
[17:25] <RedPenguin> hey all
[17:25] <Generator_> mcphail failed
[17:25] <isoblock> lol ^^^
[17:26] <Generator_> I mean the command run failed
[17:26] <Generator_> lol
[17:26] <mcphail> Generator_: OK. We're probably going to have to try "apt-get install -f" :)
[17:26] <RedPenguin> I am running a PC with Mythbuntu and something seems to keep using CPU/Mem, that causes recordings to blip, is there any easy way I can "stress" test the PC to see where the bottle neck is?
[17:26] <Generator_> trying
[17:26] <Generator_> nope
[17:26] <mcphail> Generator_: same error?
[17:26] <Generator_> yes
[17:26] <LinuxGold> apt-get autoremove
[17:26] <Generator_> same error
[17:27] <mcphail> Generator_: pastebin it?
[17:27] <Generator_> which one's output ?
[17:27] <mcphail> Generator_: any that point to packages being broken
[17:28] <Generator_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9429692/ mcphail
[17:30] <shaan> hey guys i have a software i downloaded from sourceforge, but when i tryu to execute it i get no such file or director.. can anyone perhaps point me in the direction of why its acting like this?
[17:30] <bashful> is there a way i can send simple messages via terminal across a network
[17:30] <bekks> shaan: Which software in particular?
[17:31] <bekks> shaan: And what exactly are doing, and whats the exact, full output?
[17:31] <mcphail> !info udev trusty
[17:32] <shaan> ahh its 32 bit,
[17:32] <mcphail> Generator_: ok, seems to be choking on udev for some reason, and it is trying to install the correct version...
[17:32] <shaan> bekks: how can i add 32 bit support to ubuntu 64 bit?
[17:32] <shaan> so i can run a 32 bit program
[17:32] <bekks> shaan: Answer my questions please. Ubuntu supports 32bit applications out of the box.
[17:34] <mcphail> Generator_: in these situations, I have usually gone through every package with an error message and run "apt-get install --reinstall <packagename>". I have never tried that for something as important as udev and don't know if there would be consequences...
[17:34] <trism> shaan: you need at least libc6:i386 installed or when you try to execute a 32bit binary you get that No such file or directory message
[17:34] <Generator_> mcphail hmm :(
[17:35] <mcphail> Generator_: it _should_ not do anything nasty (although it may not actually work) but you might want to get the advice of more people before going ahead
[17:36] <mcphail> Generator_: when i had my worst episode of stale-packageitis I had to pick through things manually with dpkg and abandon apt altogether...
[17:36] <bekks> trism: We dont even know the error message he/she gets, so thats a wild guess at this point ;)
[17:36] <bashful> is there a command i can use to transmit messages to other computers who are listening with said command?
[17:37] <bekks> bashful: Which messages?
[17:37] <shaan> ahh thanks
[17:37] <bashful> just simple text, like one word messages
[17:38] <geirha> bashful: does it require authentication and/or authorization?
[17:39] <bashful> negative
[17:39] <Genkei> how to install aclocal on ubuntu with apt ?
[17:39] <geirha> bashful: then you can run   nc -l 1234  to listen on (tcp) port 1234 on one machine,  and   nc host 1234   on another to connect.
[17:40] <bashful> and after i get that setup what do i do to send and recieve
[17:41] <geirha> depends on how you intend to use it
[17:42] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Abandoning apt is a real tall tail by the way.
[17:42] <geirha> bashful: e.g will either end be interactive?
[17:43] <squinty> Genkei:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/ > Search contents of package > select your install ubuntu version > type in aclocal > Search and see which package name is displayed. install that package via apt-get or synaptic package manager or etc etc
[17:43] <Generator_> bubbasaures OK abandoning it or whatever I need to solve this problem
[17:44] <bashful> geirha: i intend to have a script transmit a message, and the reciever will execute a script based on the message
[17:45] <bekks> bashful: the receiver is human?
[17:45] <bubbasaures> Generator_, It is just people will say things here out of context and really not applicable, and may be just their limited skills rather than a norm, and give no other option that is logical.
[17:45] <bekks> bashful: if the receiver isnt human, just use ssh -c
[17:46] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Did you ever try sudo apt-get -f install
[17:46] <Generator_> yes
[17:47] <bashful> can i get a code examlpe that i can use to test on a single machine?
[17:47] <gweodoo> Yop !
[17:47] <bubbasaures> Generator_, Cool, just wondered.
[17:48] <bashful> the receiver is a script
[17:48] <Generator_> http://fpaste.org/157717/41806087/ bubbasaures what is this
[17:48] <Generator_> udev requires hotplug support, not started
[17:50] <muh2000> why is this file  /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5-fcgi  not to be found on ubuntu14.04?
[17:50] <mcphail> Generator_: hi - got cut off. Are you running Ubuntu in a VM/container/VPS?
[17:50] <bubbasaures> Generator_, I saw that and looked up udev in ubuntu but outside my general knowledge.
[17:50] <Generator_> mcphail yes in a VPS
[17:51] <mcphail> Generator_: lots of people complaining about this error running virtual machines. Looks as if the kernel is missing some magic in 14.04
[17:52] <mcphail> Generator_: that's where the "missing hotplug support" is coming from
[17:53] <mcphail> Generator_: launchpad bug #1377624
[17:54] <geirha> bashful: nc -lp 1234 | while IFS= read -r line; do printf 'Received <%s>\n' "$line"; done
[17:54] <bashful> i still have no results as to how to transmit simple messages from on terminal to another
[17:55] <geirha> bashful: echo hi | nc hostorip 1234
[17:55] <Generator_> ok
[17:55] <bashful> geirha: and to receive?
[17:55] <mcphail> Generator_: looks as if it is a work in progress
[17:56] <geirha> bashful: the previous one
[17:57] <Generator_> mcphail ahh now I am grounded :(
[17:57] <mcphail> Generator_: have you tried the hack?
[17:58] <gweodoo> o/ everybody !
[17:58] <bashful> geirha: i get this error : This is nc from the netcat-openbsd package. An alternative nc is available
[17:58] <bashful> in the netcat-traditional package.
[17:58] <bashful> usage: nc [-46DdhklnrStUuvzC] [-i interval] [-P proxy_username] [-p source_port]
[17:58] <bashful> 	  [-s source_ip_address] [-T ToS] [-w timeout] [-X proxy_protocol]
[17:58] <bashful> 	  [-x proxy_address[:port]] [hostname] [port[s]]
[17:58] <deever> for mysql-server, can i somehow change datadir right upon installation?
[17:58] <geirha> bashful: ah ok, you'll have to adjust the syntax then.
[17:58] <gmiky> !leave
[17:58] <gmiky> leave
[17:58] <smartin__> I am having a sudo issue with ubuntu 12.04 and sudo. I get a “sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 27” when trying to use “includedir /etc/sudoers.d” I have checked and commented out all entries from my small two files in /etc/sudoers.d. It appears it does not like the includedir
[17:58] <MonkeyDust> deever  there's also #ubuntu-server
[17:58] <ikonia> gmiky: /quit
[17:59] <deever> MonkeyDust: oh, thank you
[17:59] <bashful> geirha: i am new to this command so please inform me on how to change the syntax
[18:00] <smartin__> I have also removed all files from /etc/sudoers.d, any help would be appreciated
[18:00] <kernix> hey all
[18:02] <bashful> geirha: i got the previous command working, i think, but i wont know until i get the transmit command to work
[18:03] <bashful> echo hi | nc hostorip 1234 returns nc: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
[18:03] <zerowaitstate> bashful: lol; you are being too literal
[18:03] <zerowaitstate> bashful: hostorip needs to be replaced with the host or ip you are communicating with
[18:04] <bashful> would i be able to make that my own ip address?
[18:04] <zerowaitstate> bashful: type "man nc" and read the documentation
[18:06] <zerowaitstate> bashful: you can make it your own ip address, but convention is to use the loopback network 127.0.0.0/8 when communicating with yourself
[18:06] <lubos_boucek_> Hello.
[18:06] <zerowaitstate> for example, 127.0.0.1
[18:07] <zerowaitstate> bashful: using the loopback bypasses the NIC and just uses the local network software stack. using your own IP requires that the NIC be online
[18:07] <bashful> zerowaitstate: that works
[18:09] <zerowaitstate> bashful: just remember, if you send a message to loopback, you also have to listen to it on loopback. in geirha's example listener, he is binding to all interfaces. if you bind to a specific interface, and the sender is sending on localhost, you also have to listen on localhost
[18:09] <leitao> I want to boot my ubuntu and use the root on a squashfs
[18:09] <leitao> how can I do it?
[18:10] <bashful> so currently it will receive all messages from local and loopback
[18:10] <bashful> ?
[18:10] <zerowaitstate> bashful: I am using localhost and loopback interchangeably. they mean the same thing
[18:11] <bashful> my question is will it receive anything that is directed at that port?
[18:12] <bashful> any message i mean.
[18:12] <zerowaitstate> bashful: yes
[18:12] <bashful> awesome, that will work wonderfully,
[18:13] <zerowaitstate> bashful: it can potentially be a security issue unless you have a firewall rule or force it to bind to the loopback, though
[18:13] <samp> Hi, I'm looking for help to setup a mail server on my ubuntu 14.04
[18:13] <zerowaitstate> bashful: so use with caution
[18:14] <bashful> i only intend for this to run a script that controls the lights, and other stuff in my room.
[18:15] <bashful> and that will be done using a relay system on a parallel port of an old laptop
[18:17] <bashful> now my next task is to find a way to control the parallel port from terminal
[18:18] <OerHeks> !info gtkterm
[18:19] <bashful> gtkterm can control the parallel port/
[18:19] <bashful> *?
[18:21] <Chuck_Norris> bashful: aptitude show gtkterm
[18:22] <OerHeks> No, only serial ports bashful, but i cannot find such driver for parallel ports
[18:27] <yinkum> What is the command to open a folder from the Terminal?  I'm trying 'open .'
[18:27] <parmiggiano> 'cd foldername'
[18:28] <yinkum> Right, how about opening it from terminal to the finder?
[18:28] <DJones> yinkum: Whats is "the finder"?
[18:29] <Chuck_Norris> yinkum: gksudo nautilus <folder>
[18:29] <Chuck_Norris> ?
[18:29] <DJones> yinkum: If you're doing it from terminal, then use "ls" as the command to see whats in the folder
[18:29] <Chuck_Norris> oh! god, sry, just only:  nautilus <folder>  :P
[18:30] <yinkum> Perfect. Thanks guys, sorry for the simple question.
[18:30] <bashful> can anyone tell me if this can be used with any relative ease for my purpose? http://www.epanorama.net/circuits/parallel_output.html#linuxprogramming
[18:33] <VLaddi> Is there a possibility to install ubuntu on a usb stick so it acts as a normal installation? I mean I can install stuff on it and everything will be saved on this usb?
[18:33] <WilliamDotAT> VLaddi, yes
[18:33] <yc10> VLaddi: Yes
[18:33] <DJones> !persistant | VLaddi
[18:34] <VLaddi> ubottu: what's the difference between normal insallation and persistent?
[18:34] <VLaddi> DJones: was it you who had a Y510p lenovo?
[18:34] <DJones> VLaddi: Yes
[18:35] <VLaddi> DJones: yeah, I have struggled to dual boot windows 8 with linux but it's just getting too many errors
[18:35] <VLaddi> DJones: So I believe I run ubuntu from a usb stick instead of the internal hdd
[18:36] <squinty> VLaddi:  you can just point the ubuntu installer to your stick when doing a regular install.  just remember to also install the grub bootloader to the stick itself rather than to your hard drive.
[18:37] <VLaddi> alright, squinty, I'l try that
[18:37] <squinty> VLaddi: if you are planning on using the stick on other computers, don't install any propriety video drivers (just use the open source/kernel ones)
[18:37] <freeroute> hi everyone, I'm trying to pin a package (I want tmux from 14.04) but according to Ubuntu wiki - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto - I should first update /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01ubuntu
[18:37] <freeroute> problem is, I don't have a /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01ubuntu
[18:37] <freeroute> instead, this is what I have - http://eos.kpaste.net/34335c62
[18:37] <DJones> VLaddi: Can't say I've had any issues, from buying the laptop, I used Win8 to resize the drive, turned off secureboot & then installed using 64bit USB, when I changed drives, I used windows installer topartition the drive, installed windows, the  installed Ubuntu, neither time did I have any issues
[18:37] <VLaddi> squinty: thank you
[18:38] <freeroute> so my question is... should I just create 01ubuntu file there?
[18:38] <freeroute> I'm on 12.04 (64bit)
[18:38] <mike123> i'm tryinf to isolate a hardware failure, is there a difinitive way to tell a hard drive with bad sectors from a bad stick of RAM?
[18:39] <freeroute> mike123: for RAM, I suggest memtest86
[18:39] <freeroute> mike123: for HDD, I suggest the badblocks tool, which is a part of smartmontools
[18:40] <squinty> mike123:  Disks (in main menu )  > Smart Data tests (cog icon upper right corner)
[18:40] <mike123> freeroute: alright i'll do em boths gracias
[18:40] <squinty> mike123: if you suspect ram, might just want to pull and then reseat the ram sticks
[18:41] <SpaceStation> alt+1
[18:45] <glemsom> Is there a way to make Ubuntu not force the filesystem into read-only mode, if a disk timeout occurs?
[18:46] <cosmos78> hi does anyone have a nice wordlist for aircrack-ng?
[18:46] <k1l_> cosmos78: not supported here
[18:46] <cosmos78> ok
[18:47] <k1l_> glemsom: see the mountpoints in fstab. but i am not suer if it gets just kicked out if not ro-mounted on errors
[18:48] <glemsom> k1l_, ahh, good point !! I was looking in the wrong direction here... I was looking at scsi settings instead... while I should have been looking at mount options. Thanks !!
[18:50] <redban> My windows vista is acting up again , help
[18:50] <synks> any app that records charges made on your laptop battery or limits its full charge to say 60% ?

[19:00] <MikeRL> I am trying to connect to a VPN service that worked on Ubuntu 14.04 and earlier. Seems to not connect at all on 14.10. Nothing comes up and I'm following the instructions from the provider for Ubuntu. Any way to find you what's causing my issues?
[19:00] <MikeRL> Is there any way to attempt to connect via terminal and get any sort of crash information?
[19:01] <MikeRL> My machine is updated. And it's a PPTP connection.

[19:37] <Ghostly> hello, i am new to ubuntu 14.04 and decided to use the Gnome 3 shell because i prefer the looks. But for some reason flash videos will only fullscreen once as long as the plugin-container is not killed (i am using firefox 34.0), is there any way to fix this?
[19:37] <LucidGuy> So sick of NFS servers killing/freezing my workstations.  I have a 6+ NFS mounts to 6 different NFS servers on all my workstations.  Every once in awhile one server will glitch or require downtime etc.. this causes the workstations to freeze and are useless.  Anyone think of a solution to prevent this?
[19:37] <holstein> Ghostly: i would use current flash from chrome
[19:37] <holstein> Ghostly: you can use it in chrome or chromium.. adobe doesnt provide flash for linux anymore
[19:37] <holstein> .g about flash
[19:38] <holstein> !restricted
[19:38] <Ghostly> aha. explains a bit.
[19:38] <holstein> http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - the link i was looking for you you to check..
[19:38] <fandi> hi all
[19:40] <Ghostly> holstein: well then, i will get chrome and try that. Thanks for the help.
[19:40] <holstein> Ghostly: cheers!. and good luck
[19:40] <fandi> i have problem with : language-pack-end
[19:40] <fandi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9431147/
[19:40] <fandi> i'm using ubuntu 14.04
[19:40] <fandi> thanks
[19:41] <user1397> ghostly: you don't need chrome if you want you can install chromium and the restricted-extras.  although with chrome you will be able to view netflix :)
[19:42] <Chuck_Norris> Ghostly:
[19:42] <Chuck_Norris> are you there?
[19:42] <Ghostly> yes chuck
[19:43] <holstein> !info pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[19:43] <holstein> thats the pacakge for getting the current flash for chromium ^
[19:43] <holstein> AFAIK, restricted extras doesnt include it
[19:43] <user1397> ah, my bad
[19:44] <Chuck_Norris> Ghostly: well, user1397 made a good suggestion there but, you could try peperflash in Firefox -.-
[19:44] <Chuck_Norris> there is a wraper to use peperflash in firefox, i recently did that -.-
[19:45] <Chuck_Norris> Ghostly: do you wanna try the wraper?
[19:46] <Chuck_Norris> Gorith: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install freshplayerplugin
[19:46] <holstein> http://www.webupd8.org/2014/05/install-fresh-player-plugin-in-ubuntu.html
[19:48] <Ghostly> chuck_norris: intresting, not quite ready for that now but i will consider it, Thanks
[19:49] <OerHeks> no need for a pepper flash ppa
[19:49] <holstein> yup.. its in the repos.. chromium and the pepperflash plugin are in the repos..
[19:49] <holstein> the ppa is for using it with firefox
[19:50] <Chuck_Norris> Ghostly: np
[19:59] <MikeRL> Back. I thought using a newer kernel was causing my VPN issues. It's not the kernel.
[20:00] <MikeRL> Anyhow, on 14.10 I am unable to connect to a VPN (specifically via PPTP), but I don't know what is going on to cause the crash.
[20:00] <MikeRL> Any way to figure that out?
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: can you ping the endpoint ok?
[20:01] <MikeRL> ActionParsnip, how would I do that?
[20:01] <holstein> ping the.ip.add.ress
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: in a terminal, same as in Windows...
[20:01] <holstein> like, "ping 55.555.55.5"
[20:02] <MikeRL> Well, how do I find their IP address?
[20:02] <MikeRL> whois?
[20:03] <holstein> MikeRL: i might ask them, so i have it exactly for these troubleshooter purposes
[20:03] <bubbasaures> fandi, More info may help a little context, cause and effect to the channel
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: if you don't have an IP how do you plan to connect to the service?
[20:03] <holstein> and, i would refer to the connection by ip, configuring it
[20:03] <Guest73602> Hello
[20:04] <user1397> by the whenever i ping i always do "ping -c 3 www.example.com" which pings it 3 times, or else it keep going forever
[20:05] <MikeRL> Hmm. It shows a range of IP addresses.
[20:05] <MikeRL> But how do I know which one to ping if I can't connect to their VPN?
[20:06] <MikeRL> I just connect to their service via the Gnome Network Manager applet. Doesn't connect.
[20:06] <holstein> MikeRL: i would ask whoever it is you are talking about
[20:06] <holstein> MikeRL: whomever supplies you the vpn..
[20:06] <MikeRL> But I think it may be an Ubuntu-specific bug.
[20:06] <holstein> MikeRL: you need to specify the connection settings
[20:06] <MikeRL> I believe I can connect elsewhere.
[20:06] <MikeRL> I know the gateway.
[20:07] <holstein> MikeRL: sure.. just try it, and see.. so you dont have to say "i believe"
[20:07] <MikeRL> vpn.btguard.com
[20:09] <MikeRL> I can connect on my Android tablet.
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: unless you can give the vpn client a specific IP, it wont connect
[20:10] <MikeRL> ActionParsnip, it worked on previous Ubuntu versions.
[20:10] <Nedal> hi, plz, in the command ls -l what does the second column refers to for directories ( for files I know it s the number of hard links but there s no such a thing for directories, just softlinks)
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: can you connect using CLI?
[20:10] <MikeRL> Well, I have an IP address my tablet is connected to.
[20:10] <MikeRL> ActionParsnip, can you explain how to?
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: use that
[20:10] <holstein> MikeRL: use that ip address. in the device that *is* connecting
[20:11] <hetii> Hi :)
[20:11] <MikeRL> Yeah, but first, I'll write it down and disconnect the device.
[20:11] <MikeRL> 192.168.10.60
[20:11] <hetii> I have trouble with my wirelles card: http://pastebin.com/QHBipkWK
[20:11] <holstein> MikeRL: no need to share it here, but, i dont think thats what you need..
[20:12] <MikeRL> So, what do I need to do? I think a good first step would be connecting via terminal.
[20:12] <hetii> only my phones with andorid are able to connect to this network, my laptop disconnect from it.
[20:12] <holstein> hetii: broadcom chip?
[20:13] <Nedal> No one knows ?
[20:13] <hetii> Qualcomm Atheros AR928X Wireless Network Adapter
[20:13] <MikeRL> Well, I think it was giving me my local IP from the Android app I used to connect.
[20:14] <MikeRL> Found the VPN address.
[20:14] <hetii> also my girl that use windows 7 have this issue. I check already if my mac is blocked by cloning this from phone but still the same issue.
[20:14] <MikeRL> So, about connecting via cli...
[20:15] <EriC^^> Nedal: it's the number of links
[20:15] <MikeRL> Anyhow, you guys cannot connect via your other devices? Check the router settings.
[20:16] <MikeRL> Also I can ping them on the Ubuntu box.
[20:16] <holstein> !vpn
[20:16] <Nedal> Eric^^ what links !!! there s no hard links for directories
[20:17] <EriC^^> Nedal: like the "." in the directory which refers to the dir itself
[20:18] <user1397> any way to change how fast trackpad scrolls (kde)?
[20:18] <MikeRL> There's documentation on using the cli to connect to a VPN, but any way to do this with one command?
[20:19] <holstein> MikeRL: http://askubuntu.com/questions/57339/connect-disconnect-from-vpn-from-the-command-line maybe where i would start with that..
[20:20] <MikeRL> holstein, Thanks. I saw that earlier when I was searching for a solution.
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> hetii: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[20:20] <EriC^^> Nedal: type mkdir bla; ls -ld bla; mkdir -p bla/blabla; ls -ld bla
[20:21] <holstein> MikeRL: did you try it? and do you have any error messeges that may help a volunteer assist you?
[20:21] <EriC^^> Nedal: the directories within it, count as links like the "."
[20:21] <bubbasaures> hetii, might check here. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=AR928X
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> hetii: its one line of output so no need to pastebin
[20:22] <MikeRL> Well, to start off, that config file appears to have moved since the time when that article was written.
[20:22] <platz> I just use the command vpnc
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: if you have a config file you can run: openvpn filename.ovpn
[20:23] <MikeRL> I actually am using PPTP, not OpenVPN.
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> !pptp
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> MikeRL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VPNClient#PPTP
[20:27] <MikeRL> Wait. I'm trying out something in one of those links.
[20:31] <MikeRL> Since I tried saving the password in the GUI, and somehow see all my info in the file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/BTGuard VPN, I wonder if the GUI is having an issue.
[20:31] <MikeRL> Anyhow, I have some questions on what those lines do. I'll get a link and explain more.
[20:31] <delt> Hello
[20:31] <MikeRL> http://askubuntu.com/questions/198136/error-when-trying-to-connect-to-vpn-on-startup
[20:31] <MikeRL> First answer with 5 upvotes.
[20:32] <MikeRL> What exactly does "password-flags=0" do?
[20:32] <delt> i need some files in /tmp to be kept across reboot (for kerberos authentication) - where's the command that clears /tmp on boot?
[20:33] <ms_> @delt can you just move the files from tmp?
[20:33] <ms_> and then put them back after reboot?
[20:33] <delt> ms_ the kerberos stuff expects it in /tmp,
[20:33] <delt> oh... then what about if there's a power failure?
[20:34] <ms_> well I would think you would have the files backed up
[20:34] <delt> dirty kludge... better to just not remove them to begin with
[20:34] <MikeRL> So... The password flags line does what?
[20:34] <ms_> @delt, you could have a script replace them on boot. From another directory.
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> delt: /tmp is in RAM, it is in tempfs
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> delt: you will need a command to put the files there on boot
[20:35] <avid_fan> delt: Might check here: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/01/19/changing-the-tmp-cleanup-frequency/
[20:35] <delt> [pts/18][user@laptop]:~$ mount | grep -i /tmp
[20:35] <delt> [pts/18][user@laptop]:~$
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> delt: you can't make it not remove so its your only optoon. Not a kludge at all. RAM contenrs are lost on shutdown
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> delt: df -h | grep tmp
[20:36] <Ben64> ActionParsnip: i don't think it is tmpfs by default
[20:36] <delt> [pts/18][user@laptop]:~$ df -h | grep -i tmp
[20:36] <delt> tmpfs            389M  2.5M  387M   1% /run
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> delt: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[20:37] <delt> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[20:37] <delt> running ubuntu studio actually
[20:38] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip: fyi, my 14.04-based system also doesn't have /tmp as tmpfs...
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> delt: not sure where it is wiped. I have /tmp in tempfs to keep the system clean. Could you not use another folder like /opt
[20:39] <delt> ActionParsnip: i think i'd have to recompile the kerberos stuff for that
[20:39] <ikonia> errr no
[20:40] <ikonia> there is no need to recompile kerberos
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> delt: I see. All I can think is to have a cp command in /etc/rc.local until you can find what is clearing it
[20:40] <delt> unless there's some flag to kadmin that is undocumented or something like that
[20:41] <Ben64> what about avid_fan's suggestion?
 delt: Might check here: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/01/19/changing-the-tmp-cleanup-frequency/
[20:41] <delt> yeah, reading that now....
[20:42] <avid_fan> delt, Ben64, I've not tried it. But it seems to jive with the /etc/default/rcS I have.
[20:42] <delt> seems like the best solution. Thanks avid_fan (:
[20:42] <Ben64> avid_fan: yeah, seems like the best way
[20:43] <avid_fan> Ben64, delt, hope it works for you. :-)
[20:45] <delt> alright. this should be solved.. thanks guys!
[20:45] <degva> Hello all, does anybody has ever experienced problems with clementine? every time a new song starts gnome just crashes. I really not sure how to proceed
[20:46] <flower_> hi
[20:46] <EriC^^> degva: start it from a terminal
[20:47] <hadifarn_> for some reason, we need to setup our own DNS servers. there are many options out there. since it's a critical part of our Saas app, I'd like to know your opinion on how to do it and which one to use?
[20:48] <ikonia> use your ISP'
[20:48] <ikonia> they will be the dns servers you should use
[20:49] <avid_fan> hadifarn_: Any specific requirements? Dynamic DNS updates, or just a bunch of static records?
[20:49] <hadifarn_> avid_fan: dynamic dns updates. we need to add new domains for each customer signups
[20:49] <ikonia> then it should not be dynamic
[20:50] <ikonia> that is not a dynamic setup
[20:50] <ikonia> if you are hosting - you should know what dns servers you should be using
[20:50] <hadifarn_> ikonia: oh sorry. you mean in terms of IP. yeah it's static addresses
[20:51] <hadifarn_> I'm looking for an easy to setup DNS server which allows me to easily add domains and records to it. I have never done this before
[20:52] <Justus_> hi, got a problem here with ubuntu server, it seems that even though apport isn't installed somehow it is the default handler for dumps: kernel: [  431.461982] Core dump to |/usr/share/apport/apport 3175 6 0 3175 pipe failed
[20:52] <ikonia> hadifarn_: talk to your isp
[20:52] <EriC^^> Justus_: how come it's not installed?
[20:52] <daftykins> hadifarn_: #ubuntu-server and channels more relevant to DNS servers such as BIND would be best to talk in.
[20:52] <Justus_> cansaa is spamming querys...
[20:53] <Justus_> EriC^^: No idea, it's a regular install upgraded from 12.10 to 14.04 now
[20:53] <avid_fan> hadifarn_: Well, I've used BIND + Webmin in the past with rather good results. But for some very solid DNS servers, I prefer DJBDNS.
[20:53] <hadifarn_> ikonia: I'm hosting my servers on Rackspace. their Cloud DNS api is no good for our usecase.
[20:53] <ikonia> hadifarn_: then you have to purchase dns servers from a provider
[20:53] <EriC^^> Justus_: it doesn't show up in service --status-all ?
[20:54] <Justus_> the executable at /usr/share/apport/apport is not there
[20:54] <hadifarn_> ikonia: can't afford them. if it wasn't our last choice, I wouldn't have asked
[20:54] <ikonia> hadifarn_: then you can't host domains
[20:54] <Justus_> ikonia: thanks
[20:54] <ikonia> hadifarn_: it's that simple
[20:54] <hadifarn_> avid_fan: any reason for DJBDNS?
[20:54] <hadifarn_> you're not helping ikonia. I can if I run my own DNS server.
[20:55] <ikonia> hadifarn_: sure you can but a.) you need to know what you are doing b.) have multiple ones on different networks
[20:55] <ikonia> hadifarn_: based on what you are telling me you don't seem to hit either of those two criteria
[20:55] <hadifarn_> ikonia: hence the reason I'm asking here
[20:55] <ikonia> whih is fine - but at the same time you can't host peoples domains
[20:55] <hadifarn_> I have good servers on Rackspace. reliable enough
[20:55] <ikonia> thats not really it though
[20:56] <Justus_> EriC^^: I have since then installed it, now it does show up (with a ?) but I'm still not that buzzed about that kind of surprise
[20:56] <EriC^^> Justus_: seems odd
[20:57] <Justus_> EriC^^: is the package somehow not required for 12.10?
[20:58] <EriC^^> Justus_: i dont think so
[20:58] <avid_fan> hadifarn_: Personal preference mostly. It's smaller and lightweight, and in my expereience very reliable. It does take a bit more to get your brain around, because as far as I know, there is no GUI.
[20:58] <EriC^^> Justus_: i think it comes with every release
[20:58] <EriC^^> Justus_: it handles error reporting too
[20:58] <hadifarn_> thanks avid_fan. I give it a go
[20:58] <Justus_> EriC^^: well, it seems to be new in 12.10
[20:59] <indistylo> Graphics is not working well, Kindly check this  Output of Xorg.0.log is attached, See this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9431198/    it says kernel load to fail.
[20:59] <Justus_> EriC^^: on the other hand the server was originally a 1210
[20:59] <IdleOne> !12.10
[20:59] <IdleOne> 12.10 is no longer supported, upgrade.
[20:59] <EriC^^> Justus_: i remember installing 12.10 once and the errors were popping up, so i think apport comes with it too
[21:00] <Justus_> EriC^^: sadly I even have a sufficiently incompetent lout who once had access and might have uninstalled it *grumble*
[21:01] <EriC^^> lout?
[21:02] <Ankoran> Marcos, do not invite me
[21:02] <indistylo> zykotick9 : Graphics is not working well, Kindly check this  Output of Xorg.0.log is attached, See this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9431198/    it says kernel load to fail. Kindly suggest measures to resolve and fix the isssue
[21:02] <EriC^^> Justus_: nevermind
[21:03] <Justus_> EriC^^: meaning?
[21:03] <EriC^^> Justus_: yeah it might have been uninstalled
[21:03] <Justus_> EriC^^: well, it's installed now, how can I monitor it for new crashes?
[21:03] <EriC^^> i'd think the update-manager should reinstall it though
[21:04] <pavillon> Hello :)
[21:05] <Justus_> EriC^^: the real joke is, that I have strong suspicions, that the dump might have been survivable, but due to apport being gone the system crashed
[21:06] <EriC^^> Justus_: did you add a gui to the server?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> indistylo: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue
[21:06] <apostolical> how do i block this ip 80.248.65.183?
[21:06] <Justus_> EriC^^: no
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> apostolical: you can use iptables
[21:06] <apostolical> can i block this country intire ip range?
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> apostolical: you can block subnets of IPs
[21:08] <apostolical> http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/12/powerful-highly-stealthy-linux-trojan-may-have-infected-victims-for-years/

[21:09] <ActionParsnip> Chuck_Norris: needs sudo ;)
[21:10] <joshh20> Ok is it possible to only extract a certain folder in a zip file with Ubuntu unzip ?
[21:10] <Bashing-om> indistylo: " AMD Proprietary Linux Driver Release Identifier: UNSUPPORTED-13.35.1005 " so what card is this ? -> sudo lshw -C display <- . While I finish reading your log.
[21:11] <indistylo> ActionParsnip : cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS \n \l
[21:11] <EriC^^> joshh20: you can mount it, then copy the dir
[21:12] <EriC^^> joshh20: right click on it and press mount with archive manager
[21:12] <joshh20> Wouldn't mounting a zip require unzipping the whole thing?
[21:12] <joshh20> I'm not using GUI
[21:12] <EriC^^> nope it'll mount instantaneously
[21:13] <Bashing-om> indistylo: ^^ and as ActionParsnip Request, we see a mismatch in kernels ->  cat /etc/issue <- .
[21:13] <indistylo> Bashing-om : sudo lshw -C display output :http://paste.ubuntu.com/9432146/
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> indistylo: if you reboot and hold SHIFT can you boot a newer kernel?
[21:14] <Bashing-om> indistylo: 12.04.5 check, looking at your :http://paste.ubuntu.com/9432146/ .
[21:14] <indistylo> I have not done that
[21:14] <indistylo> i have no idea
[21:14] <Chuck_Norris> ActionParsnip: good point :P
[21:16] <Bashing-om> indistylo: ActionParsnip :: "Radeon HD 4530/4570/545v] " // AMD dropped support for this series of cards some time ago. IF you run other than 12.04.1 there is no proprietary driver availabale.
[21:17] <umib0zu> hey guys. does anyone have links to tutorials about using aws with ubuntu. I'm super stuck and I'm a bit tired of falling down rabbit holes trying to set up a webserver.
[21:18] <umib0zu> bonus points if it's actually up to date with the service.
[21:18] <indistylo> Bashing-om : what is the solution then ? should i revert back to fglrx-legacy ?
[21:19] <EriC^^> joshh20: last 2 answers http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/14120/extract-only-a-specific-file-from-a-zipped-archive-to-a-given-directory
[21:19] <joshh20> Oh thank you EriC^^ :D
[21:19] <EriC^^> no problem
[21:20] <Bashing-om> indistylo: There is no FGLRX // The only driver available is open source ( radeon). When the kernels are straitened out, need to purg FGLRX and install 'radeon' .
[21:20] <isantop> So I'm trying to issue a dbus-send command over ssh to lock my screen remotely. But complains that it couldn't connect to the session bus because the connection was refused. Anybody know how to solve that?
[21:21] <indistylo> ActionParsnip : ^^ and Bashing-om : Prior to this problem mine graphics was working like charm, application like CCSM and cairo-dock was working with openGL like charm but recently according to ubuntu manager-update suggestions i installed all the updates, after rebooting this graphics problem started. There is mismatch between fglrx and mesa
[21:21] <Bashing-om> indistylo: IF there is a real need of a proprietary driver, the only thing one can do - that maintains ubuntu support - is to install release 12.04.1 and DO not enable HWE to install later harware stacks.
[21:21] <saleem> how to share network file using server ip from ubuntu 12.04 to windows 7
[21:22] <saleem> what are the steps it need for network file window share from ubuntu 12.04 to windows 7
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> Saleem: you can use samba or for nice security use sftp
[21:23] <saleem> how whats the correct step by step guide
[21:25] <indistylo> Bashing-om : Will it create problem for running graphics like cairo-dock and openGL applications?
[21:25] <saleem> suppose i have network file ip address as 192.168.54.21 in windows 7 how to access this ip from ubuntu 12.04
[21:25] <Bashing-om> indistylo: " Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.42-37-generic i686 Ubuntu " The kernel you want to run to have FGLRX driver, BUT there is now " Current Operating System: Linux aruns 3.2.0-72-generic-pae " >> that kernel is not supported by AMD (ATI) .
[21:26] <squinty> saleem:   nautilus > location bar > type smb://ip_add_here  is one way
[21:27] <saleem> give me the good correct of guide link i need to give company
[21:28] <Bashing-om> indistylo: I am not at all sure of a method - if any - to revert back to the 12.04.1 kernel series short of (RE-)installing .
[21:28] <IdleOne> !samba | saleem
[21:28] <saleem> i checked these two links it did not work well
[21:29] <saleem> give me link in which there are screenshot guide
[21:29] <indistylo> Bashing-om : what is the solution in your view?
[21:30] <squinty> saleem:  probably wouldn't hurt to be a bit less on the " give me..." attitude.  suggest you take a look at youtube.
[21:31] <IdleOne> saleem: https://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/03/filesharing-in-windows-7-and-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/ That is all the searching I'll do for you
[21:31] <saleem> i checked but its for 11.04 and other versions in youtube
[21:32] <holstein> i like gigolo for mounting shares, as well
[21:32] <holstein> !info gigolo
[21:32] <saleem> can i use other ip in access the other folder if i have more then one folder with ip address
[21:32] <daftykins> saleem: try adding the word "please" in future requests

[22:15] <lmat> How do I tell which gcc comes with ubuntu 14.04?
[22:16] <rww> !info gcc trusty
[22:16] <lmat> oh, is 14.04 == trusty?
[22:16] <rww> yep
[22:16] <rww> so version 4.8.2. apt-cache policy gcc gives the same info locally
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> !14.04 | lmat
[22:17] <lmat> awesome
[22:44] <subterfuge> I don't mind doing my own homework here, I just don't know what search terms to even use:  I have a image of an entire HDD (windows file system)  created with dd and I want to (from the command line) copy it to another external HDD as a fully functioning file system (clone)  --- What is this called so I can research it OR if anyone has time what is the proper command and string of variables to go with it?
[22:44] <seinthebear> subterfuge, check the DD manpage :P
[22:45] <EriC^^> subterfuge: did you copy the entire disk, /dev/sdx ?
[22:46] <subterfuge> seinthebear, already have it up, I just don't see may answer or anything close
[22:46] <seinthebear> ohh
[22:46] <EriC^^> subterfuge: dd if=/path/to/image of=/dev/sdx conv=sync,notrunc,noerror
[22:47] <EriC^^> subterfuge: make sure of /dev/sdx you could wipe out a drive with it
[22:48] <LinuxGold> hmm
[22:48] <subterfuge> EriC, I used a Hardcopy 3P to image the HDD (embedded linux system using dd to create image) I want to use my Ubuntu box to now create my clone from it
[22:50] <subterfuge> EriC^^, thanks -- I read 'notrunc = do not truncate the output file'  -- what does that mean if you don't mind
[22:50] <genii> subterfuge: Everything is a file. So /dev/sda  would be a file representing the entirety of the first hard drive. /dev/sda1 would be first partition on first hard drive. etc. So if you know the /dev/sdX device you want to clone it to, and the location of the image file you already made, then it's like dd if=/the/imagefile/you-made.img of=/dev/sdX    where if= means inputfile  and of= mean outputfile
[22:50] <rod_> Hi, is there a channel for GraphicsMagick anywhere? tia
[22:51] <Jordan_U> EriC^^: Why the conv=sync?
[22:51] <subterfuge> EriC^^, as for making sure of sdx and wiping a drive, this is and other aspect of dd is why I came to ask before going any further
[22:51] <Jordan_U> !alis | rod_
[22:53] <subterfuge> genii, thanks for jumping in -- as I was asking EriC^^, why or what is cotrunc doing here "do not turncate the output"
[22:53] <NTQ> Hi. I have some problems installing a mailserver with postfix, postfixadmin, dovecot and roundcube on Ubuntu 12.04.4 Server. Here are some more information: http://nopaste.info/ede8334a86.html
[22:54] <daftykins> NTQ: 12.04.4 is out of date and #ubuntu-server
[22:54] <kernix> hey all
[22:54] <genii> subterfuge: There's a much better explanation than I can give of it here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20526198/why-using-conv-notrunc-when-cloning-a-disk-with-dd
[22:54] <NTQ> It has all the neccessary updates.
[22:54] <NTQ> but thanks for the other channel
[22:55] <NTQ> Sorry, it's 12.04.5 LTS
[22:55] <daftykins> now it's up to date ;) other channel though yes.
[22:56] <subterfuge> genii, thanks that is a good read
[22:56] <EriC^^> subterfuge: notrunc isn't really needed when you write to /dev/sda
[22:56] <EriC^^> Jordan_U: http://superuser.com/questions/622541/what-does-dd-conv-sync-noerror-do
[22:57] <subterfuge> EriC^^, yea thats what I am reading, sounds like it is only mission critical when cloning to a partition but not needed went using a whole block level device
[22:58] <subterfuge> EriC^^, genii, and everyone else -- thanks -- this is what makes the community so great
[22:59] <EriC^^> subterfuge: it's critical when cloning to a file
[23:02] <subterfuge> EriC^^, roger, it is becoming clearer as I read further in to this.
[23:03] <EriC^^> subterfuge: ok, cool
[23:08] <LinuxGold> hmm

[23:09] <Smokie> hey guys, anyone can help me out on how to install and run "tls package" on ubuntu 14 by any chance?
[23:15] <marcelino> Hello! I'm new in linux and programing, I'm learning C, have little open source projects that I can contribute?
[23:17] <blacknred0> marcelino, what type of projects are you interested on? There is a long list to choose from
[23:18] <marcelino> Black, any project that a beginer C programar can contribute
[23:18] <Loshki> marcelino: how about a spell checker :-)
[23:18] <bubbasaures> heh very good
[23:18] <blacknred0> that would be a good one :)
[23:19] <marcelino> Its is a good chose to begin, ty!
[23:22] <Loshki> marcelino: but seriously, start with hello world, and then write a small app that you personally find useful. Also, volunteering to maintain and fix bugs in other people's code will give you a very quick education in the difference between good, maintainable code and the rest.
[23:23] <seinthebear> good advice Loshki
[23:24] <blacknred0> agreed
[23:25] <Loshki> Yeh, I'm gonna be sore tomorrow...
[23:25] <marcelino> Ty Loshki, I go improve my skill a bit more first, to can help bugs in another programs
[23:26]  * seinthebear should start learning C++
[23:26] <fossrox> hi everyone, any updates on the ubuntu tablet? is it already out?
[23:26] <popey>  fossrox no.
[23:26] <fossrox> if not, then what is the current stage of development?
[23:27] <popey> target is next year
[23:27] <popey> it can be installed on a nexus 7 or nexus 10, but it's not finished
[23:27] <kokut> Hello, anyone knows how to apply the changes to window theme settings in ubuntu tweak? the only thing i managed to change in the themes tab is the Gtk Theme
[23:28] <Loshki> seinthebear: C, C++, Java and Python seem to be basic set nowadays. Did I miss any?
[23:28] <fossrox> popey: thank you, do you mean the beginning of 2015 or a whole year from now?
[23:28] <seinthebear> Not that I know of
[23:28]  * seinthebear can barely script in bash :P
[23:29] <popey> fossrox: neither, some unspecified time next year
[23:29] <fossrox> thank you :)
[23:29] <fossrox> i wish it would be already here
[23:29] <kokut> nowadays all knowledge is ready on the internet, so anyone can code, the thing is putting time to it
[23:29] <kokut> Hello, anyone knows how to apply the changes to window theme settings in ubuntu tweak? the only thing i managed to change in the themes tab is the Gtk Theme
[23:29] <eldosoa> Hi everyone, can anyone help me with installing a single-boot of ubuntu on my MacBookAir(3,1)? Thanks!
[23:30] <Loshki> seinthebear: You know what they say about how you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice...
[23:30] <kokut> eldosoa: just follow the on-screen instructions?
[23:31] <eldosoa> kokut: At some point the computer hangs after some use, I think I installed ubuntu wrong. I haven't found a guide that specifically guides on how to install on a MacbookAir(3,1)
[23:32] <daftykins> eldosoa: are you using the mac ISO?
[23:32] <eldosoa> daftykins: I was able to create a USB installer using a Ubuntu OS.
[23:32] <kokut> eldosoa: ubuntu can be installed in most personal computers, if it hangs its probably a hardware issue
[23:33] <daftykins> eldosoa: that does not answer my question :)
[23:33] <kokut> anyone knows where should i go for help regarding ubuntu tweak? I can only change the Gtk theme in the themes panel :/
[23:34] <eldosoa> daftykins: I downloaded this: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop then created the USB installer. Then I booted my Mac by holding the Option key then I installed ubuntu from there.
[23:35] <linuxd> what apps are here to run catellite cards?
[23:35] <linuxd> what apps are there to run satellite cards?
[23:38] <eldosoa> daftykins: what do you mean by Mac ISO? Sorry, amanoob.
[23:42] <daftykins> eldosoa: that's alright, best to hear those questions in the first instance though. on the download sites, there is a mac-specific disc image for installations
