EuaDis it critical to be running iptables rules on a remote linode server?00:48
daftykinsEuaD: they're your provider, ask them for their advice :)00:48
EuaDdoubt they provide support like that for free accounts.00:49
EuaDin fact i'm just asking if i have a WAN facing server, is it critical to be running iptables rules in general00:49
daftykinsdidn't know they offered anything for free. ho-hum00:49
EuaD14 days yes00:49
daftykinsyes, i know you are00:50

EuaDso the verdict is stil out?  iptables rules or no on a WAN facing server running apache, nginx, teamspeak, mumble, minecraft00:52
daftykinssoomro786: so you need to resize sda5 to make an sda600:52
daftykinsEuaD: it'd be more relevant in #ubuntu-server00:52

catacostI'm trying to query my email password via gnome-keyring over ssh but I can't seem to access it. It works fine when logged into the desktop on the host. Any tips?00:57
devilspgdEuaD: The answer is "it depends", if the iptables rules you're going to write just allow all traffic from anywhere to the same ports you're already opened, well, they're not doing much.00:57
tewardEuaD: i'd set up rules on that, yes - locked down as much as you can by source IPs, but I"m a little paranoid00:57
devilspgdEuaD: BUT, you are protecting yourself against configuration errors where you open up something to the world that wasn't intentional.00:57
Foxhoundzn[p000:58
devilspgdEuaD: So I'd use iptables just to limit exposure.00:58
EuaDmakes sense, thanks guys01:00

=== Joshua^Dunamis is now known as J^D_is_coming_so
gourwhat  to do01:04
EuaDdevilspgd, not intentional? all those services to the best of my knoweldge are meant to be run open to the world unless i'm not understanding your statement01:06
devilspgdEuaD: Right. I guess my point is that if the iptables rules you're going to write just say "Allow all traffic to a list of ports, reject everything else" and if you only have those ports open, and everything else is closed, the results are the same whether you remember to load your iptables rules or not.01:07
EuaDdevilspgd, oh that i understand. i'll lock it down with ufw or iptables to only allow traffic on specific ports.01:08
devilspgdSure, but if those are the only ports that happen to be open, the end results are the same.01:09
devilspgdBut say you didn't intend to open MySQL to the world, and in a week you accidentally bind it to 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1, well, having iptables already set up might save you some hurt.01:09
devilspgdSo it's good form to have it enabled, definitely.01:09
EuaDdevilspgd, i think you just confused me more. lol   im going to lock down my server completely by reject/drop all traffic to ports besides the specific ports that my services are running on. is that correct?01:10
dts|pokeballhey guys... ive installed libbluray and vlc, but i cant play my bluray. any help? http://i.imgur.com/sMOsl3W.png01:10
devilspgdYup, that's correct.01:11
OerHeksdts|pokeball, not all blueray discs will play01:11
devilspgdBut even without iptables, traffic sent to ports that aren't opened by something will just get rejected anyway.01:11

cos5000I'm using 14.04 LTS and I'd like to prevent deluge from running at boot.

Does anybody have any other suggestions?02:07
trismfreeroute: grab a package with: apt-get source packagename; and look at the debian/control file, you'll see the difference (compare with say, apt-cache depends packagename;)02:08

Tom84What is the point of IRC?02:14
freeroutewhat is the point of life?02:15
Tom84I'm not really sure02:15
explodesHey. You know youtube-dl? Is there a way to download tracks that a soundcloud user "likes"02:18
Tom84oh02:19
freeroutetrism: so what's this debian/control file you're referring to? I did 'apt-get source tmux' inside a dir I made and it downloaded and extracted a subdir with a bunch of .c files02:19
freerouteexplodes: not sure, but if you know the link and that link is a list you can usually youtube-dl that. Just as say I go to a user's soundcloud link and that user has a bunch of tracks he made, I can simple do 'youtube-dl "www.soundcloud.com/userprofile"' and then it downloads all tracks from that user.02:20
freeroutebut be sure to upgrade your youtube-dl to support feature02:21
freeroute*more features02:21
trismfreeroute: the apt-get source tmux will download and unpack a directory tmux-version-something, in that directory there will be a debian directory, and a file name control in there. that's where the build-deps are specified02:21
explodesfreeroute: that is tracks that the user published, not the one's they liked02:22
freeroutetrism: ah... so that's the info I see when I do 'aptitude show tmux'. Cool :)02:23
freerouteexplodes: true, but if soundcloud has a link to the tracks that the user liked, you could potentially use that02:24
trismfreeroute: don't see any build-deps there, just deps02:24
explodesfreeroute: if i parse the webpage myself; i'm just hoping there was a way to have youtube-dl do it.02:24
trismfreeroute: it deps on libevent-2.0-5, libtinfo5, those are required to run the binary, it build deps on libncurses5-dev, libevent-dev which have the headers and such to build the binary02:27

Darknetf.y.i. i am not a real pro at command-line without specific guides.02:29
freeroutetrism: so are those deps then compiled into the binary I install when I choose to 'sudo aptitude install tmux' ?02:29
trismfreeroute: sometimes they might be, in this case the lib packages are added as deps of the binary package02:30
soomro786im trying to resize my LUKs and when i do cryptsetup resize sda5_crypt it says device not active02:31
soomro786what am i doing wrong02:31
freeroutetrism: hmm, that's interesting, so if those lib packages are already added as deps... then why does 'sudo aptitude build-dep tmux' still asks me if I want to download those libs?02:32

holsteinXypher: why? what are you looking for? i would never use alien but as a last resort02:37
freeroutetrism: ah ok, so the binary then just contains links to those libs (which are then placed somewhere in the system), and build-dep command just downloads those libs just like apt-get source downloads the source into the current dir.02:37

lotuspsychjeCrell: was this a clean 14.04 or upgrade from other version?03:28

Bashing-omMichaelHabib: That is a fact . do in terminal -> ls -al /etc/grub.d/40_custom <- to see that is true.04:37
somsipakurilin: ignoring environmental needs is a common reason for the cronjob to fail, so you're right to focus on it.04:38
MichaelHabibBashing-om: the thing is, I need to create the custom menus without any OS is installed . The idea is to have the USB to boot ISO's and maybe other OS's when needed  .. but I need all these Grub2 Menu changes to be in one location, not depenent on installing an os04:39
Bashing-omMichaelHabib: In your proposal, I see no way . You see grub's 2nd stage boot code is located in the installed system .04:40
MichaelHabibthe idea is  Grub2 + Custom Menus + ISOs all on one partition04:41

s0nyI installed Ultimate Edition 4.2 (Ubuntu 14.04 based) dual booted with windows 8. I added the swap partition but did not add the bios manager option.

Smaugso it seems like it may be some driver issue, but I am not sure how to proceed.  The ubuntu wiki did not help me05:22
stiv2ki just installed lubuntu 14.04.1 i386 and i noticed the lubuntu software center is not showing up programs like vlc, lubuntu-restricted-extras, but they do appear if i use the console, i.e. sudo apt-get install vlc05:23

DreamPCsHey guys, quick question (hopefully), I added a second hard drive (sdb) that I want to mount as /home/jason/05:25
DreamPCsSo can I use this second hard drive in addition to my first hard drive to supplement the space of my home/jason dir? If so, how can I do it via the cli05:25
Bashing-omSmaug: A proprietary drive in use prior to the release upgrade ? such that the driver is now broken .05:26

dts|pokeballi dont believe you05:34
Smaughow can I install open source driver?  on the wiki page the only install it has is "sudo apt-get install mesa-utils"  is that the driver?05:35
Bashing-omSmaug: -> dpkg -l | grep fglrx <- and take it from there to purge the proprietary driver that no longer does you any good .05:35

Smaug*purge05:36
Smaugor is dpkg better05:36
Bashing-omSmaug: A LOT depends on how you installed a driver ( if you did) as to what it will take to remove it .05:36
Smaugwell IF i installed anything, i would have preferred ap-get (but it would have been a few years ago, honeslty don't remember)05:37
Smaugi may not have installed anything non default also05:37

seventyninefourtI've noticed that it can shrink it, but not expand HFS+, as far as I can tell07:19
seventyninefourtanyone? HFS+ support?07:22
rypervencheseventyninefourt: Give it time for a response.07:22
rypervencheseventyninefourt: As far as I know it needs to be done in OSX.07:23
seventyninefourtrypervenche: last I checked Disk Utility nukes the soul out of partitions it doesn't recognize, I don't know if that's changed since 10.6.807:24
seventyninefourtI'd gladly use DU, but I don't want to nuke my partitions in the process07:24

michaelr525Still have an ssh session open but can't run anything, it seems.08:52
michaelr525can anyone advice on what can be done please?08:52
iptablemichaelr525: can you rename it back? no? In that case, shutdown, boot into recovery using a USB/CD boot and rename back.08:54
iptablemichaelr525: another way would be to boot into busybox from grub and hope you can rename from there.08:54
michaelr525iptable: it's a server which I access with ssh08:55
michaelr525not sure I can do the above..08:55
iptablemichaelr525: that's not really relevant though, no? if you cannot run any commands from the box itself, then it will not get fixed and services will begin to fail. you will have to go to recovery/busybox.08:56
iptablemichaelr525: you *could* try forking busybox from your bash session if you have it installed08:56
iptablemichaelr525: why'd you do that, anyways?08:57
michaelr525hmm.. it wasn't me..08:58
michaelr525he had some stupid reasons08:59
iptableshoot whoever done that. there is no reason to rename it.08:59

nichlascrito: are you using standard port 22?09:35
DJonescrito: If I understand you, you can connect to your server (at the office) using your internal office network, but can't connect outside the office via the internet09:35
critonot a problem with ssh. Yes that is right DJones.09:36
nichlascrito: might be an issue with blocked ports on your office network. Especially if you are not using standard ports.09:37
DJonescrito: So inside your office your connect to the servers internal ip address (Guessing at 192.168.0.x) but outside the office you connect using the external ip of your network, have you set your router to forward ssh requests from the outside world on a specific ssh port to your server?09:38
critomy server isn't even letting me access the hosted websites through my browser09:38
critorouter is set to forward traffic, worked fine until yesterday morning.09:39
critoCan the hosting site blacklist my ip address?09:39
DJonescrito: DO you have a fixed ip address? Is there any chance that it could have changed?09:39
iptablecrito: so when on the network you cannot access the server using the EXTERNAL IP of that network?09:40
critowe have a static ip09:40
iptablecrito: but you can access it using it's internal IP?09:41
critoyes the office ip is unable to access the server, but offsite ip can09:42
iptablecrito: if you use the internal IP of the server from the office, can you access it? or also no?09:42
critoits hosted offsite iptable09:42
iptablecrito: so you have a server in location A. You can access it from location B but not location C. All locations have their own external IP and there is no VPN involved. Correct?09:43
critoyes09:43
iptablecrito: can you ping the server from the office? can you ssh to it? can you connect on port 443 (https) and/or port 80 (http)?09:43
iptablecrito: answer yes/no to ALL questions09:44
critono ping, traceroute, ssh, port 80 or 44309:44
critoall connections just hang09:44
iptablecrito: ok, so you cannot access the server AT ALL from the office.09:45
critono iptable09:45
iptablecrito: on the server: iptables-save. provide output in pastebin09:45
iptablecrito: also, check if your office router has got any outgoing port/ip blocking or rate-limiting enabled09:45
critowill do iptable, thanks, just be a min09:46
iptablecrito: also provide traceroute to server IP from office and from remote location. both tcp-syn and icmp traceroutes.09:46

Ben64its not a filesystem that is supported fully in linux10:18

chowndungoofSo if I was to reboot my system now10:22
chowndungoofin its party owned user state it would be fine10:22
Ben64what?10:23
chowndungoofi sudo chown most of my server to user10:23
chowndungoofand if I reboot10:23
Ben64i'm saying /sys gets made every boot, not every file on the computer10:23
chowndungoofwill all the tmp files and stuff  like /sys/ fix them selfs10:23
chowndungoofcorrect10:23
chowndungoofwill my system boot tho10:23
chowndungoofif most files are owned by user10:23
Ben64who knows10:24
Ben64time to reinstall10:24
MaxFramesapparently, bindfs "will take an already mounted file system and provide a view of it with whichever uid you'd like"10:24
MaxFramesso if I know the osx user id I could use bindfs to access the files as that user10:24
Ben64MaxFrames: again, if you can't view it using sudo, nothing will work10:25
MaxFramesso far I have just tried to view it from the gui10:25
Ben64sudo ls /path/to/it10:25
chowndungoofsudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 1000, should be 0 sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting sudo: unable to initialize policy plugin10:27
chowndungoofFUCK10:27
Ben64watch the language here10:27
chowndungoofI cant sudo stuff anymore10:27
chowndungoofshould my /etc/ folder be owned by root?10:28
chowndungoofor by user?10:28
explosiveevery dir is owned by root10:29
iptablechowndungoof: on your computer, deploy a virtual machine or LXC container and configure a fresh system. Migrate your live website to it. test, make sure it works. then reinstall hosted server and copy stuff (config etc) over10:29
Ben64not necessarily true, but nothing outside of the user's home should be owned by the user10:29
chowndungoofso if I sudo chown -R root:root /10:29
explosivechowndungoof: yeah, i mean every dir in "/"10:29
explosivechowndungoof: no, read above10:30
iptablechowndungoof: so you cannot sudo or su to root (I'm guessing you didn't set root password). In this case, 2 options: 1. reinstall the OS, 2. boot from liveCD/liveUSB recovery and try to fix permissions. not sure which one is easier. I would opt for reinstall for safety10:30
Ben64learn from this about safety using sudo, chown, and recursive10:31
Ben64then reinstall10:31
iptablechowndungoof: some stuff needs to be owned by not root. like /var/www stuff and /var/spool/ etc stuff. all in all, this is *almost* unrecoverable for you. It's a big challange for an experienced sysadmin10:31
chowndungoof /var/spool and /var/logs are still owned by root10:32
chowndungoof /var seems untouched10:32
explosivechowndungoof: what about /etc ?10:32
brit1230hey10:32
brit1230does ubuntu have tcl ? or do i have to install it?10:33
iptablechowndungoof: those were just examples. there is a lot more. all /bin needs to be root. 99.9% of /etc is root, so should be kind of ok.10:33
iptablechowndungoof: which dirs did you nuke so far?10:34
explosivechowndungoof: i'd say get a template of your distro from a fresh install, and run a script that checks every file and sets the permissions as such10:35
iptablechowndungoof: on my server everything in /etc is root owned, so try to make /bin/ /sbin/ /etc/ root owner (from recovery if you cannot sudo anymore)10:35
iptableexplosive: except that his one is a server so will have more configs than a virgin distro. lots more.10:36
explosiveiptable: yeah but apparently everything in /etc is owned by root, except for a few files who have a differen group10:36
explosiveiptable: i thought way more files weren't owned by root10:36
explosiveiptable: it seems feasible at least, i dont know, what do you think?10:37
chowndungoofI cant sudo anymore10:37
chowndungoofhow do I fix that to start10:37
iptableexplosive: same here, but apparently on a server only a few would be. only on my asterisk box. not on my webserver though.10:37
iptableexplosive: looks like on desktop it's a different story10:37
iptablechowndungoof: /bin, /sbin/ /etc/ /boot/ /lib /lib64/ /mnt/ /root/ /sys/ are ROOT OWNED.10:37
iptablechowndungoof: so these are easily fixed10:37
chowndungoofI cannot sudo chown right now10:38
chowndungoofhow do I get Sudo powers back first?10:38
Ben64recovery mode10:38
iptablechowndungoof: IF you nuked dirs other than the ones I just mentioned, you ARE screwed as they have a mix of ownerships10:38
chowndungoofWill I be able to boot?10:39
iptablechowndungoof: I already told you 3 times. recovery mode. or boot liveCD/liveUSB10:39
Ben64iptable: it was a chown -R /10:39
iptablechowndungoof: boot lto liveCD for recovery10:39
chowndungoofwhat LiveCD should I use10:39
explosivechowndungoof: there's also the issue of suid, once you chown it, if you set it to root it wont have the suid set anymore10:39
iptableBen64: but he cancelled it half way and chown would be more or less alphabetical, just like rm -rf / (DO NOT EXECUTE)10:39
iptablechowndungoof: ubuntu live CD?10:39
Ben64iptable: then he did another chown -R /10:39
Ben64i say reinstall10:39
iptableBen64: same here. said that 3 times to him too10:40
Ben64not so good at listening then i guess10:40

digitsmOpenTokix, But it doesn't11:57
ikoniafloatmastaflex: mhddfs seems to suggest you mount directories, NOT device files11:57
digitsmOpenTokix, I feel after max freq getting limited, it stuck in that situation for ever11:58
ikoniafloatmastaflex: you are mounting devices, not partitions, and looking at the docs you don't mount disks/devices with it, you mount already mounted directories11:58

digitsmOpenTokix, OK thanks. I will do remaining things with Google's help12:02
OpenTokixPici: I know perfectly well how to, but if he cant navigate the proc filesystem by himself, he should not change values there. - Some sanitation in the recommendations.12:03

digitsmOpenTokix, If I could disable intel speed-step and set cpu freq to max for all time it would be great12:04
digitsmBut I think it's not possbile12:04
orlockDoes Unsupported mean releases are wiped from mirrors?12:04
iptableMichaelHabib: you need a search first. search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 71f08932-5b0d-41b6-9738-1278769b961912:04
OpenTokixdigitsm: yes, you change it to performance, or just disable speedsteop in bio s12:05
OpenTokixbios12:05
iptabledigitsm: it would not be great. it would shorten the lifespan of your CPU and if using a laptop, reduce battery life12:05
bilgebuyucuhi12:06
iptabledigitsm: but if you want it, as OpenTokix said, it's a BIOS option12:06
digitsmOpenTokix, I tried disabling speed-step in bios, but then it said if I disable speed-step, the bios will set cpu-freq to min!!!12:06
digitsmNo way to set it to max!12:06
MichaelHabibiptable:  is this the correct format ?      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 0000000000    or should it be   set=root=uuid=0000000  at the end ?12:07

cfhowlettMarezz, only the unity interface uses lenses.  you could use any number of alternates: xfce4, lxde, kde, gnome       being the most readily available12:33

vetoPici:I thick it would show some message, but actually it shows nothing12:34
Marezzcfhowlett, thanks. So you recommend gnome flavor?12:35
Piciveto: I'm sorry, but I'm not familiar with this command. Is it something that you've used on Ubuntu before? What information did you get previously?12:35
cfhowlettMarezz, I don't but only because ubuntustudio uses xfce4 instead.  they are easy to test and have full-blown official ubuntu releases.  sudo apt-get install kde-plasma xfde4 lxde       (not sure how to get gnome)12:36
cfhowlettMarezz, if you have a preference for any of them, consider installing the full distro12:37

chrisss123456hey guys, silly boot questoin: i have a windows 8 partition that i kept while installing ubuntu. it came up initially on grub but now its gone... (there is still the windows security boot option, but then it says "image not found"12:40
chrisss123456any ideas?12:40
Chuck_NorrisMarezz: well, try not to use DE that use compiz -.-12:40
cfhowlettMarezz, amd ... you'll find that of the big 3 = intel, nvidia, amd = AMD is still, sadly, the least linux-friendly.12:41
tmofeeive heard windows 8 especially doesnt play well with machines with other OSes installed... i cant remember the trick but you need to convince it that its the primary partition12:41

digitsmOpenTokix, Hello again. I disable speed-step and now freq of cpu of my laptop is always on 2.19GHz13:06
Okitainlittlebit: unfortunately Nvidia doesn't support KMS, which means no fancy stuff while booting13:07
littlebitOkitain: ah ok13:07
digitsmAnd it got even cooler! Which is weird. I am running mprime CPU stress test now the cpu temp doesn't go upper than 55 degree Celsius.13:08
digitsmBut when speedstep technology was enabled, temp could go up to 70 degree under load13:09
digitsmI don't understand why intel even implemented speedstep in my cpu!13:09
Ben64it is likely the temperatures are not correctly being reported13:09
=== ARMEN_ is now known as EREVAN
digitsmBen64, I get the temp using "Sensors" command13:10

digitsmBen64, I think so13:11
=== gimnazjum is now known as erroreus
Ben64digitsm: i don't see how that contradicts what i said13:11
digitsmBen64, I am not sure speedstep is only for reducing heat, but more for reducing power consumption by lowering voltage13:12
Ben64digitsm: its both13:12
digitsmHowever it can be done by using "nop" assembly codes too, which OS does automatically when idel13:13

MichaelKI have never seen so many people leaving the windows OS, and installing linux in these times.. WOW13:13
Ben64digitsm: not the same at all13:13
=== Kryxo is now known as Kryptron
digitsmBen64, I have a Dell Latitude D830, with Intel T7500, with 2.2GHz at max. Now it's at 2.19GHz, speedstep is off, and it is cool and running very smooth13:14
=== Silenced is now known as Silenced|examON
MichaelKdigitsm: cool..13:15
digitsmBen64, There is something else about my laptop too. My fan always turns at highest speed. Because my fan is now connected to 5v DC after my motherboard got repaired after a failure13:15
tmofeei need win os for my games, but my two older machines run lubuntu... i knew they couldnt handle win 7 and they shouldnt stop being used anymore just because theyre old13:16
MichaelKI'm running NetRunner 14 on a Dell Optiplex 7010, and it's running great...  I did have PC-BSD 10.1 installed on it.13:16
tmofeejust for shits and giggles, as part of my work we have these ancient pentiums for a contract with 128 MB of ram that still run a basic software with nt 4.0 ... i managed to get damn small linux running on it,13:17
digitsmSo fan speed chipset (which increases fan speed in case of increased heat/load) is useless. So even at highest frequencies, my fan turns at highest speed and so cpu keeps cool13:17
digitsmBut it got noisy!13:17
Ben64digitsm: cool? try to keep on topic here though. if you'd like to chat, please use #ubuntu-offtopic13:18
littlebitOkitain: but how come do I have better performance when playing an mkv file with vlc with the nvidia drivers than the nouveau?13:19
digitsmBen64, I was talking about cpu freq of my laptop. First I thought it's ubuntu's fault. Now I turned speedstep and found that it's more about my cpu/bios/heat-exhausting13:20
Ben64littlebit: because of vdpau and hardware acceleration13:20
digitsmIt was not offtopic13:20
digitsmBut anyway thanks13:20
tmofeei think he was talking about me being off topic :P13:21
Ben64digitsm: 4 lines about how you think its better to have a basic cpu functionality disabled and how you have your fan macgyver'd is not really related to ubuntu at all13:22
digitsmBen64, OK13:22
digitsmBen64, The only strange thing was how turning off speedstep could make things cooler. It's weird for me13:23
digitsmBen64, But sorry for being too chatty13:24
digitsmAnyway thanks all for your helps13:24
Ben64digitsm: back to my original point -- it is likely the temperatures are not correctly being reported13:25
digitsmBen64, How could I know the correct temps?13:25
Ben64by physically measuring the cpu13:25
digitsmBen64, It's impossible13:26

MathisI wanted to create some kind of kiosk client14:41
Mathisjust firefox showing one website, nothing else14:41
cfhowlettMathis, configure your router: one url allowed14:42
GeekDudeHow long does it take to mount a floppy O_o14:42
Mathiscannot configure outgoing traffic14:42
Mathisonly incoming14:42
GlorfindelGeekDude: five seconds?14:42
GeekDudewell then I must've done something wrong14:42
Mathiswait, also cannot configure incoming traffic14:43
tewardMathis: if you can't control the in/out traffic at all, then you can't achieve your goal14:43
MathisI am using a UMTS stick for connecting to the internet14:43
Mathisteward: I want to control it by shutting down the services which are responsible for that unwanted traffic14:44
tewardMathis: you'd have to hunt and peck at the services, some of which are auto-updates, and some which will likely require hacking away at the core software set to remove the functionality.  Have you even identified the services which are causing the unwanted traffic?14:45
Mathisno, not yet14:45
tewardMathis: that's your first step14:45
Mathisthought there is an official list14:45
cfhowlettMathis, WAY too many variables to make a standard list.  check your services14:46
Mathisits a default installation, so there are nearly no variables14:46
tewardMathis: there's an infinite number of variables, and it's impossible to make a standard list, that's why i said you have to hunt and peck to find the services generating the traffic14:46
MathisI didnt install anything beside the default image14:47
tewardMathis: you might also want to look at this: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/07/create-ubuntu-kiosk14:47
Mathiscool, thanks :-)14:47
tewardneither of the guides on that link though are for the faint hearted14:47
tewardhttp://thepcspy.com/read/converting-ubuntu-desktop-to-kiosk/ is probably what you want, going from Desktop to Kiosk14:48
tewardMathis: back up critical data first, though - these things might explode14:48
MathisI have no critical data on my client14:48
tewardMathis: note though the same page says it's probably better to start with Server and build up14:49
tewardrather than Desktop and cut away at it14:49
tewardMathis:http://thepcspy.com/read/building-a-kiosk-computer-ubuntu-1404-chrome/is a from-scratch method though14:49
tewardMathis: either method is not for the faint of heart and will take some time and configuration14:50

brainacidbeen reading the manual and did some searching on duckduckgo but still cant get what i want17:13
brainacidi would simply like to extract, print to stdout or pipe, an email addr... i dont want the names in front of the emails, just print the string that matches @17:14

gomariGuys has the ntsf intergration to Ubuntu been improved or it's as slow as before?17:15
daftykinsgomari: i'm gonna guess you mean the Linux kernel's support for NTFS - the Windows file system?17:16
gomariYup17:16
daftykinsgomari: never had any speed issues before.17:16
gomariNo it was too slow17:16
daftykinsstandard logic applies though, if you're using NTFS with Linux - maybe you're doing it wrong.17:17
daftykinsgomari: well unless you have any metric to quantify this claim, all we'll have is your word against mine :)17:17
Zerock|WorkHow does one set the Java library path globally without having to launch each application from the command line? I'm trying to use the svn plugin for Eclipse, but the native libraries are not in the expected location.17:17
trisshey all. I've recently purchased a nice new shiny hp envy laptop17:17
trissthe fans seem to be on a lot more on ubuntu than on windows17:18
daftykinsZerock|Work: pretty sure establishing environment variables is a step 1 of installing a java setup, perhaps find some java channels and ask some java devs for advice17:18
compdochurray!17:18
trissand the box isn't working very hard17:18
gomariSure there is a metric it's the windows speed vs Ubuntu speed17:18
trissare there any nice apps that can help me figure wich fan is running and have it turned down?17:18
daftykinsgomari: i'm talking about tangible proof, not your say-so :)17:18
trijntje!fan maybe | triss17:19
Zerock|Workdaftykins: Well if the path is not set by default, then the software is incorrectly packaged. There should not be software that installs to an arbitrary location that does not comply with the software it intends to work with.17:19
gomariAnd asuming u r right and has no issues why would be wrong to install Ubuntu to a ntfs partion?17:19
daftykinsZerock|Work: maybe you've yet to log out and in? :) who knows. you've not mentioned what you've installed in much detail, still say a developer would be better to ask than a general OS channel17:20
daftykinsgomari: you actually can't install Ubuntu on an NTFS partition.17:20
gomariI think i just did17:20
daftykinsgomari: nope.17:21
daftykinsnot possible17:21
SchrodingersScatcan't execute files on ntfs, afaik17:21
daftykinsunless you're talking WUBI, then i shall commence laughter immediately17:21
outtierm^17:21
gomariHow can i confirm my root partion type from ubuntu then?17:22
daftykinsgomari: explain how you installed first, if it was WUBI (the installer from within Windows) then all bets are off17:22
gomariIt was Ubuntu 12 from and i intalled it from windows not from live cd17:23
k1l_gomari: show the output of "mount" and "sudo fdisk -l" (small L at the end) in a pastebin17:23
AndedamHey, I have a quite annoying problem. I am using a Logitech Ultrathin Mouse (T630) on Bluetooth and from time to time sequences of numbers 6 7 or 3 gets spammed like a key was stuck. When I turn the mouse off the spamming stops. Im running Ubuntu 14.10 and Gnome Shell. I wondered if anyone in here have had a similar problem and might direct me how to solve it ?17:23
k1l_gomari: so its a wubi install inside windows?17:23
daftykinsgomari: yeah so that's WUBI, an absolutely horrific idea17:23
k1l_gomari: you are lucky it got that old and should not blame slow speeds at all with wubi. if you want better ubuntu performance make a real install.17:24
daftykinsgomari: so truthfully, the original question should've been "how is performance with WUBI?" not performance with NTFS. the answer to that would've been "oh dear Tux don't ever use WUBI! it's an abomination!"17:24

diphtherialhello; so apparently kernel 3.18 adds support for focaltec touchpads, and indeed /proc/bus/input/devices reports that it's now being recognized as a focaltec touchpad17:36
diphtherialunfortunately it mentions that it's in ps/2 mouse emulation mode; i'd like for it not to be, so that i can toggle it on and off and use multitouch gestures with it17:36
diphtherialhow do i go about configuring it?17:36

UTLHi, all! Remember my problems with the SD card not working right? I've just tried to research the problem, and I'm not getting anywhere, so I thought you might help.17:45
daftykinsUTL: the one we pronounced dead?17:45
diphtherialtrism: ah, yes, that thread's been my bible lately17:45
diphtherialthe gist of it is that someone made a kernel patch, but 3.18 includes the change they made afaik17:46
diphtherial(i actually have a ux303ln, currently trying to overcome a host of issues)17:46
UTLdaftykins, I'm not sure what you mean, but I'm talking about the problems with the SD card writing. I've got errors like "end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector #" and "mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt." and "mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data, sector 61057, nr 1024, cmd response 0x900, card status 0xc00"17:48

bubbasauresdiphtherial, You want to be aware that except for small exceptions packages outside the repos or releases are not really supported here17:49
diphtherialbubbasaures: i'm confused; is the main kernel release of 3.18 not supported?17:50
diphtherialthat's what i installed this morning, as it includes the support that that patch added17:50
daftykinsdiphtherial: no that's not a kernel version in any stable release.17:50
bubbasauresdiphtherial, Not in any release is all, just making sure you know the channel norm, people do help if that is the only option or just care.17:51

LinuxGoldyes?17:52
ASHER1i try doing this and this install but17:52
UTLLike I've said before, it doesn't happen to Windows. I've found out that one reason might be an old laptop, but I have a fairly new laptop I got from Walmart this year, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, with a built-in SDXC card slot17:52
diphtherialgenerally speaking, if you want to configure a peripheral, is there a central place to do it or does it vary by driver?17:52
ASHER1i have this gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1)17:52

LinuxGoldapt-get install libpq-dev17:57
UTLI put the card back in. It hasn't shown me the SD card icon on the Unity panel, yet.17:58
DF3D2bubbasaures, it was caused by switching from AMD binary driver to Linux binary driver.17:58
UTLIt's like the process is running in the background.17:58
LinuxGoldUTL: dmesg, and put SD card in and make sure it is recognized.17:58
DF3D2It was fixed by running xrandr --dpi 96 , but then on reboot that command no longer works17:59

marcel_isantop: it says sudo: unmount: command not found19:05
mikubuntububbasaures: this isn't a particularly old computer either19:05
isantopmarcel_: make there's no "n" in there. Just umount19:05
marcel_isantop: it says not mounted now19:06
isantopYou should be fine to remove it, then. If it's not mounted, then there shouldn't be any more write operations pending to the drive.19:07
bubbasauresmikubuntu, I would use a conky or htop to tell. My concern is that all you answers and questions are rather empty of info for the channel to help you is all.19:07
isantopmarcel_: You might reboot, too. It shouldn't be necessary to run any of the mount commands manually.19:07
bubbasauresyour*19:07
marcel_isantop: ok. but im still a bit confused. why does it show up in the explorer when its not mounted? is this usual?19:08
mikubuntububbasaures: whats a conky or htop ?19:08
spupuserIts saying it copied to my usb but when I look in that usb nothing is there19:08
isantopYeah, If the drive is connected, it will show up in that list on the right so that you can click it and open it.19:08
bubbasauresmikubuntu, Easily found on the web, you have to be careful you rely on the channel for any info. Both will show processes.19:09

mikubuntububbasaures: k i'll check it out19:11
upsell5can I add it to my bash with an alias in a single line?19:11
bubbasauresmikubuntu, Cool, hope we can get you working as you want. ;)19:12
marcel_isantop: ok that makes sense. another question: under devices it show a lot of things which im unsure about why it is displayed there or what it means: "OEM" "ROOT-A" "ROOT-A" "EFI-SYSTEM" "EFI" "34 GB VOLUME". Is this supposed to look like this?19:12
johnfgI see that there's a ubuntu-mate.org, but they only have isos.  Is there a way to install mate on this server?19:13
bubbasauresjohnfg, What release is this?19:13
holsteinjohnfg: yes.. its in the repos, or at the mate site, you can read about adding the ppa's to get *exactly* what is in the mate 14.04 version19:14

lucid_intervalupsell5: if you want to add an alias to your currently running shell instance: alias l='ls'    (to alias l to ls)19:16
johnfgWhat's the preference for a dm.  I'm using both gdm and lxdm on other machines, at present.19:16
upsell5lucid_interval: cool, and what file does it append to?19:17
bubbasauresjohnfg, lightdm is used19:17
=== guest677 is now known as DSM
lucid_intervalif you want to have this alias available when you log in next time (also): add a line with the same text to ~/.bash_aliases19:17
johnfgSo, with make-desktop installed, will startx start with mate?  Or how do I call it?19:18
bubbasauresjohnfg, You will end up with a gui to login with.19:18
lucid_intervalIf you add to ~/.bash_aliases and you want the alias immediately available in the currently running shell, after adding the line, in your current shell do: . ~/.bashrc    - remember the '.' (DOT) at the start and the space between the dot and the .bashrc19:18
johnfgbubbasaures: after a reboot, right?19:19
bubbasauresjohnfg, Yeah,19:19
isantopmarcel_: Is that on your main drive?19:19
johnfgbubbasaures: Or just logoff?19:19
holsteinjohnfg: did you install "ubuntu-mate-desktop" ?19:20
bubbasauresjohnfg, Might work with a log off with the correct start, my gnome shell would be sudo service lightdm start19:20
holsteinjohnfg: did you get a login manager? lightdm? when you added your mate packages?19:20
johnfgholstein: I installed make-desktop.  Is that the same thing?19:20
marcel_isantop: im not sure what you mean.19:20
holsteinjohnfg: no.. but, that doesnt mean you want/prefer the ubuntu-mate-desktop metapackage19:21
lucid_intervalupsell5: also see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=178104719:21
marcel_isantop: im running ubuntu on the internal ssd of my chromebook (installed via crouton).19:21
isantopmarcel_: Ah, it's likely that ChromeOS is booting via UEFI, and the rest of those partitions are set up as a part of ChromeOS. You'll want to keep those partitions, since they contain the bootloader for your Ubuntu partition as well as for ChromeOS.19:22
johnfgholstein: with the console that came up on the first boot of the vm, I can't scroll back, so I'm not sure if it installed a dm or not.19:22
johnfgWhat's the diff between ubuntu-mate-desktop and mate-desktop?19:23
holsteinjohnfg: sure. the "easy" way, is literally reboot.. see if you have a login manager or not.. then, you can try "startx" or whatever..19:23
bubbasauresjohnfg, make or mate desktop was that a typo?19:23
johnfgtypo19:23
bubbasaurescool19:23
holsteinjohnfg: the "similarity" there is mate.. its like xubuntu vs xfce.. xubuntu cusomizes xfce to some degree19:24

johnfginteresting.  I get a regular login after a reboot, and mate-desktop didn't even install X!19:26
holsteinmarcel_: one thing i might do is load up an ubuntu live cd on other hardware, and see if anything "magically" happens with the printer support19:26
johnfgI wonder if ubuntu-mate-desktop would do the same?19:27
holsteinjohnfg: i wouldnt jump to any conclusions like that.. i would just try insatlling that meta package.. and *look* and see what is being installed19:27

OerHeksjohnfg, oke. autologin, then just logout, change desktop to mate and voila19:34

parmiggianoCuriosity4tech: not being an expert, I guess there's no other way than manually removing a bunch of packages... perhaps you find a list of these packages online in some forum.20:51
Curiosity4tech<parmiggiano> so no kde desktop  remove or something20:52
