I suppose you could try replacing xorg. Run something more stable? [00:15] yea i guess ill just have to go back to 14.04 ... dont see why these problems should exist but okay [00:16] Good evening [00:16] lagbox: bugs exists. No way round that entirely... [00:17] Does anyone know where i can locate the power icon (top right hand corner) so i can customize it? [00:17] lagbox: Even 14.04 is only at 14.04.1. Not exactly a mature, well-debugged distro yet... [00:18] bugs exist ... cool, i would love to see the bug report [00:18] perhaps i can add to it [00:18] lagbox: have you checked? I can't believe you're the only one to see this... [00:26] a lot of bugs with people upgrading catalyst to "fix" though 14.10 has a version higher than the version the "fix" came in === curiousx is now known as Chuck_Norris [00:33] hi everybody [00:33] aloha rogerfed [00:34] Hi, I know how to extract geotags of the image using exiftool. Do you know how can I convert them to the location name? (ultimately I want to rename the image file based on the location.) === Orioa is now known as OrioaZzZ [00:38] Help!

[00:42] can you check dpkg -l | grep libgmp and see what version it is ? [00:43] boot screen problem, plymouth. I can see a boot screen when turning off the machine, not when turning it on === OrioaZzZ is now known as Orioa [00:45] BlueProtoman, might be a version issue with libgmp those symbols were renamed [00:45] lagbox: 2:6.0.0+dfsg-4build1 [00:45] hmm === badon_ is now known as badon [00:48] I'm trying to set up X11 forwarding from my Vagrant box (Ubuntu precise64) to my Mac. would anybody care to offer a bit of help? [00:48] I've done much of it already - I expect there's just one part that's not quite right. [00:51] "ssh -X host" [00:51] can't be much simpler? :> [00:51] but yeah, mac. 'nough said. [00:51] rosaecaeruleae: i found something related to that a couple a days ago, are you there? [00:52] yes Chuck_Norris [00:52] daftykins: I installed an X11 server on the mac, but running applications, nothing pops up. [00:53] daftykins: should $DISPLAY be getting automatically set from ssh -X ? [00:53] pass [00:53] Oh, I see it should [00:53] rosaecaeruleae: are you using a nvidia or ati graphics card? plymouth is known to be non-functional/"buggy" with the propritary drivers. [00:54] zykotick9, nvida graphics card, but xserver and no propietary drivers [00:54] rosaecaeruleae: oh, you're using nouveau? well that "should" work then. best of luck. [00:54] that didnt sound very optimistic [00:55] lagbox: Any thoughts? [00:55] im just wondering if there is an old version of gmp floating around [01:00] rosaecaeruleae: there an error message ? [01:00] how do I configure my ubuntu system to ALWAYS only require ONE alt-tab to switch between windows? [01:00] Chuck_Norris, apparently is normal x doesnt show boot screens [01:00] dont bother, ignore it [01:00] no error messages appear [01:01] rosaecaeruleae: where its stuck ? [01:02] BlueProtoman, i feel there is maybe a symbolic link wrong for the libs pointing to the wrong version perhaps [01:02] rosaecaeruleae: True; " x doesnt show boot screens " as X starts well after grub (bootloader) loads . === Mark-Potter is now known as Mr-Potter [01:03] then ignore the question [01:03] is x developing 3d acceleration? [01:04] rosaecaeruleae: Well, "3d acceleration" is a component of the graphics card/driver that talks to the X layer . [01:04] lagbox: So how can I tell for sure, and how can I fix it? [01:05] objdump -tT /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgmp.so.10 | grep limbs does that give you 5 lines ? [01:05] lagbox: Yes [01:06] lagbox: http://pastebin.com/7QiSN3Ug [01:08] BlueProtoman, its something with hogweed and gmp and something linked to the wrong version [01:09] lagbox: So what can I do? [01:11] im still looking [01:11] the odd part is that lib has those symbols [01:14] ldd /usr/lib/git-core/git-remote-https | grep gmp does that point to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgmp.so.10 ? [01:15] Yes libgmp.so.10 => /usr/local/lib/libgmp.so.10 (0x00007f3dc703c000) [01:16] thats the problem [01:16] So what's the solution? [01:16] you probably want to remove the copy you installed in /usr/local/ [01:16] and just have the one from the package manager installed [01:16] the one in /usr/local might not be the right version [01:17] Oh, wait, right filename but wrong folder name [01:17] But this is the package manager's version [01:17] it shouldnt install it to usr/local [01:18] but that is more than likely your issue [01:18] conflicting versions of headers and libraries [01:19] hey, folks...

Every other website works fine. How do I debug this? [03:57] hrm, ok. maybe coincidence that it happened at the same moment i printed a test page. [03:58] Jen8: use the Ubuntu pastebin if you do [03:58] even from the command line [03:58] Ahmuck: probably is, the hplip scripts aren't externally on those locations :P [03:58] i just now saw the msn reference. i think i saw the hp reference first [03:58] can you give me address of that please [03:58] !pastebin > Jen8 [03:58] Jen8, please see my private message [03:58] telnet github.com [03:58] telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused [03:59] nomadist: um... why're you telnet-ing them anyways [03:59] nomadist: do other sites work?

[04:43] cryptodan, http://dpaste.com/30B2YNG [04:43] so it should work. [04:43] hello. i am attempting to install ubuntu 14.10, and need some help. my computer currently has ubuntu 14.04, windows 7, and linux mint 17 installed on it, and in the installer there was no "replace ubuntu 14.04 with ubuntu 14.10 option" like there sometimes is, so I am forced to select "Something else", and use the partition editor feature. I am in need of assistance. my old ubuntu 14.04 install that I wish to replace [04:43] with a new ubuntu 14.10 install is on /dev/sda6, an ext4 filesystem.. please help. thanks in advance. [04:43] Jen8: maybe the #tcl guys might be able to help [04:43] nomadist: can you dpaste.com the results of cat /etc/resolv.conf [04:43] azjo: try installing it from the web [04:44] u mean terminal? [04:44] azjo: no, download the .deb package from their website [04:44] cryptodan, http://dpaste.com/2CT7KNB [04:44] yeah thats what i did [04:44] and it says it is installed [04:44] but its nowhere to be found in software center installed programs [04:44] nomadist: check your modem to see if you have wrong dns servers there [04:45] cryptodan, how do i do that? [04:45] nomadist: login to the router / modem via the web interface [04:46] azjo: can you find the teamviewer icon in your dash ? [04:46] i am looking for the simplest way to do this. i tried double clicking on the partition i wish to use, and selecting "use as ext4 filesystem" and "format the partition", and setting the mount point to "/", and when i then highlight the drive and click "install now", i get the popup which says i need to select a partition for use as swap space. how do i do that? [04:46] cryptodan, I tether from the 3g network on my phone [04:46] and this problem never happened [04:46] nomadist: power cycle your phone and see if you get new DNS Servers [04:47] cryptodan, ok. Will be disconnected for that. I'll be back. [04:47] azjo: you have 32bit or 64bit? [04:47] 32bit [04:47] likecolacola: better? [04:47] oh! it is in the dash [04:48] thanks [04:48] lol [04:48] weird its not in the software center.. [04:48] azjo: did you try to run from terminal maybe? [04:48] How do I fix the problem of "wand/MagickWand.h: No such file or directory" [04:48] never, i dont want terminal so [04:48] I've installed libmagickcore-dev and libmagickwand-dev [04:48] azjo: so its solved now? [04:48] so why isnt it in software center, but shows in dash? [04:48] yes, its starting up now [04:49] ok, i found how to do it, but i do not know which area to make be the swap [04:49] azjo: it should show in software centre, maybe click 'show more advanced packages' on bottom [04:49] good morning :) [04:49] !swap | Guest58978 [04:49] Guest58978: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster.

Hehe =) [04:56] Guest58978, got it. /swap *should* be safe to share, but I've not seen that in a multiboot system. might scramble one or both of the sharing OS.

[05:01] Guest58978, boot into gentoo and check the /etc/fstab, it will show which partitation swap is mounted from [05:01] lotuspsychje, was it a correct anwer? [05:01] azjo, cli only ;) shell use [05:01] azjo, man wakeonlan post install in a terminal/shell window for how to use it [05:01] azjo, super easy one to use though [05:02] peyam: you can aks the #xubuntu guys whats the easiest way [05:02] My monitor resolution and screen refresh rate keeps resetting back to "automatic resolution and 60 hz" after every gaming session. What gives? [05:02] what do i type to err execute it? [05:02] lotuspsychje, so it is possible? no #xubuntu is always asleep [05:02] azjo, wakeonlan [05:03] i figured that out myself. *proud* ;p [05:03] peyam: im sure xubuntu can have themese aswell yes, check deviantart.com => search xubuntu for examples [05:03] azjo, wakeonlan [-h] [-v] [-i IP_address] [-p port] [-f file] [05:03] [[hardware_address] ...] [05:03] lotuspsychje, do you even read what i writing?

[05:04] hmm, i used mac to wol from windows. but there isnt an option regarding mac here? [05:04] azjo, yes hardware address = MAC address [05:04] azjo, same thing [05:04] purana, me too but i thogh i would test some changes. lotuspsychje that means my question was if i have gtk3 can I use gnome themes? [05:05] so i simply type wakeonlan -f XX-XX-XX etc? [05:05] azjo, yes probably without the -'s [05:05] peyam: did you even read the themes trigger i pasted you? [05:05] so just the 12 digits in one? [05:05] azjo, I think I have a script I wrote that uses it, let me check [05:05] lotuspsychje, yes. i expected a Yes or No [05:06] azjo, think my laptop is downstairs.. [05:06] lol [05:06] peyam: life is never what You expect.. [05:06] .___. [05:06] lotuspsychje, agree [05:06] ill try the 12 digit and see what happens [05:06] hola mundo ! :D [05:06] azjo, it will either be in the format of XX:XX:XX... etc [05:07] !es [05:07] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

I/we have been using factoid triggers for a LONG time [05:33] zzzgeoffb, hello fellow australian user :) [05:33] cfhowlett, your command generated no output [05:33] purana: triggers are for everyone, related to the questions.. [05:33] lotuspsychje, good to know [05:34] lotuspsychje: Yeah I will continue the checking, Ubuntu and Ubuntu Gnome are two separate Os like xubuntu, lubuntu and so on right? [05:34] LOL [05:34] purana, ah. I triggered it right after the same command was sent by lotuspsyche. in such cases, trigger #2 is ignored.

Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. === patjuh is now known as Waakhond [05:37] hmm. [05:38] lotuspsychje: That clears things up, you said "14.04 is rocksolid and support till 2014" is that all, were at its end? [05:38] :) [05:38] Bluewolf, 3 years for 14.04 = 2017 on desktop. 5 years for server [05:38] Bluewolf: support til 2020, after that another LTS version come [05:39] !lts | Bluewolf [05:39] Bluewolf: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [05:40] Bluewolf, lotuspsychje I was wrong: 14.05 has 5 years support / except for ubuntustudio = 3 years only [05:40] lotuspsychje: Thanks man, you just might have made my day and christmas :D [05:41] is there a way to do an update and skip a particular ppa? [05:41] Bluewolf: your xmass will come tru after installing ubuntu version of your dreams :p [05:41] !pinning | iampoz maybe this [05:41] iampoz maybe this: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [05:42] iampoz: but the most logical way, would be remove your ppa :p [05:43] lol well I did, but I know I will forget to add it again later... videolan chat said that download.videolan.org is down right now [05:43] iampoz: did you sudo apt-get install vlc? [05:44] cfhowlett: you know that trigger for ppa remove? [05:44] vlc is already installed, I was just doing an update and it was giving the error that it could not connect [05:44] lotuspsychje, no idea. (I staz quiet when I haz no infoz.) [05:45] lotuspsychje: I'll remember to convert Santa as you have done me :P [05:45] Thanks again, best wishes! [05:45] Bluewolf: cheers [05:46] iampoz: maybe try to update ubuntu later on [05:46] iampoz: maybe apt-get update and reboot can do miracles === FreeNod is now known as DarthTetris [05:48] thanks lotuspsychje, it was a clean boot, but I will reboot after the update I am doing now and add the ppa. maybe it will work then, but I don't think so if the videolan irc chat is saying that it is down [05:48] is it fine to skip the "select and install software" step of the ubuntu mini.iso expert installer when doing a minimal installation? will it prevent the system from being installed correctly? [05:49] !minimal | HZun [05:49] HZun: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.

[05:52] in saying that, got the OS building to RAID1 second time around... lets see how things go on reboot [05:54] yikes, I don't want to purge my ppas! [05:55] i just went into software center and clicked the videolan ppa off and updated. works fine now... I just think I will forget to toggle it back on after a few days when it might be back online so I was asking how to temporarily exclude a ppa from an update. I don't think pinning is what I want, so maybe I don't understand how to use it.

However, when I choose the most basic option (delete all partition and install Ubuntu), it freezes! If I reboot and try another option to handle things manually and I try to create a partition table, it freezes as well. What can I do to overcome this ??? [07:46] Any idea please?

[08:08] exot [08:08] exit [08:08] Agaqin the same problem [08:08] Any tricks to this UEFI booting stuff? [08:09] !uefi | waxhead_ [08:09] waxhead_: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [08:09] installing to 120G SDD, doesn't seem to be able to boot up [08:09] waxhead_, that's a NEW SSD? [08:10] cfhowlett, newish... [08:10] cfhowlett, probably 18 months old [08:10] older maybe! [08:10] waxhead_, never done that but as I understand, the ssd/hdd needs to be prepped before install/use [08:10] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/ftp.crihan.fr-archive mirror seems to work [08:10] cfhowlett, I'll google it then.. [08:11] waxhead_, Can you change the bios to BIOS booting instead of UEFI? If so that is probably easiest. [08:11] Many BIOS's have that as an option. [08:11] rwp, yes, did that but it still didn't boot... [08:12] I get the flashing 'underscore' [08:12] it doesn't seem to progress through to booting [08:12] rwp: mistaked [08:12] Hmm... Strange. Don't know. [08:12] BIOSs should be correct [08:12] Typo. :p [08:13] Not BIOSes? :-) [08:13] Nah. [08:13] BIOSii? [08:13] Nooo. [08:13] BIOSs [08:13] * rwp chuckles [08:13] "s" means it's plural [08:13] But still "es" is not meant to be there... [08:13] Hey I have an apache install on 14.04. I've set "ServerTokens Prod" and "ServerSignature off" in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, but apache still exposes its version in the header and on error pages [08:14] bios' is the correct form ... [08:14] In any case my latest hit on the UEFI problem I couldn't get Ubuntu to install either. [08:14] Hi, does anybody know where to get libhttp-cookie-perl? None of the servers seem to have it and my system is compaining that my packages are broken... [08:14] But was able to switch to legacy BIOS boot and that worked perfectly fine. [08:14] joshh20, if no answer here, ask #ubuntu-server [08:14] cfhowlett: ok, wasn't aware of that channel [08:14] JoshH99: Have you restarted Apache2 so it takes your new configs. ? [08:14] JoshH99, Did you remember to reload or restart after the change? [08:14] !server | joshh20 [08:14] joshh20: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server [08:15] PK2: I have, but I'll try again just for the heck of it [08:15] OK. [08:15] joshh20, sorry, meant for your older bro, JoshH99 [08:15] Aaand: well, that mirror worked fine. o.O [08:15] PK2: Just ran again for sanity check. Still exposes server as "Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)" [08:15] JoshH99, Also, the /etc/apache2/conf.d/security file sets it on. So if you don't change it there it will be on. [08:15] rwp: will check that file [08:15] lol [08:16] JoshH99, [08:16] JoshH99, Meanwhile I don't think turning it off has any security merit. [08:16] rwp, I'll have another go then back at legacy [08:17] waxhead_, This reference is Debian not Ubuntu but I happened to have read it today. http://blog.einval.com/2014/12/21#Jessie-EFI_2 [08:17] Oh God... [08:17] It's written today !? [08:18] rwp: Yeah, it's a very little thing. I'm paranoid and so I like to reduce information I give out in headers if possible. I edited /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/security.conf and restarted, and the problem is fixed. [08:18] Yes. Is that shocking? [08:18] thanks PK2 and rwp [08:18] JoshH99, Good deal. === _sic__ is now known as _sic_ [08:18] Welcome.. [08:19] JoshH99, Yes, mostly there is no need to edit the apache.conf file. Most edits go into conf.d/foo-something-file instead. === Zer0legend is now known as Ankoran [08:19] rwp: When was this changed? Was it in one of the last ubuntu releases? [08:19] I always put my own files into a foo-local.conf something so that upgrades won't overwrite it and/or I don't need to merge at upgrade time. [08:19] rwp: Assuming all the files get included into the apache config automatically? [08:19] JoshH99, It has been that way for years and years. [08:20] rwp: Hmmm. I don't remember that being the case and almost all docs I find on the i-net say that, but ok :) [08:20] Basically they keep an apache.conf so that people who come from upstream apache installations via tar.gz will have what they are comfortable with. [08:20] !GUI [08:20] The graphical user interface (GUI) in Ubuntu is composed of many elements, including the !X server, a window manager, and a desktop environment such as !GNOME or !KDE (which themselves use the !GTK and !Qt toolkits respectively) [08:20] rwp: Yeah, makes sense. [08:20] But it is easier to put individual things into a file by itself. [08:21] So I have rails passenger stuff in a rails-passenger.conf file. [08:21] !XFCE [08:21] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [08:21] rwp: =P [08:21] !Qt [08:21] the Qt toolkit (pronounced "cute"), which forms the base of !KDE, is a cross-platform C++ application framework for !CLI and !GUI applications. Install libqt4-dev and see !build to compile Qt4 applications, join #qt for development support [08:21] And so on with each individual area of configuration. For me it makes it easier to keep organized. [08:22] PK2, /msg ubottu !commandHERE use the command to the left to send messages to yourself privately rather than flooding channel. [08:22] OK [08:23] PK2, Also I like to /query ubotty and have a private little chat session window with it. [08:23] Hi, does anybody know where to get libhttp-cookie-perl? None of the servers seem to have it and my system is compaining that my packages are broken... [08:23] ah [08:23] hi [08:23] Fine fine.. [08:23] * PK2 stops flooding the chan. [08:24] nully, Wow you are up late! [08:24] i [08:28] Patser, Perhaps you mean libhttp-cookies-perl with the 's' instead? [08:29] rwp: Yeah I do. [08:29] * Patser <-- typo freak :-( [08:29] A second set of eyes does help sometimes. [08:30] Thx rwp, thank god you had your glasses on.. :P [08:31] maybe I need to clean mine though. [08:32] * rwp chuckles [08:32] Patser, BTW... "apt-cache search http cookie perl" is what popped out the answer. [08:33] Ow thx I'll try that, weird thing this though. It seems that not only ubuntu has this problem but opensuse too... === intx_ is now known as intx [08:36] rwp: None of the servers I tried give me what I want, they all seem to be not having or not willing to supply the package [08:38] Patser, What version of Ubuntu are you using? [08:39] For me apt-cache policy libhttp-cookies-perl shows 6.00-2 in Precise. [08:39] rwp: 14.04.1 LTS [08:41] Hi I'm compiling with g++ [08:41] how to add more directories to include path? [08:43] rwp: you just gave me an idea, everything is backwards compartible right so I might be able to steal it from an earlier version and replace the dependant package libww-perl with the according version... [08:52] Patser, I expect that would likely work. [08:52] hi [08:53] penis [08:53] u like [08:54] money: I don't think this is the channel for that. [08:55] I thought it was Ubuntu's ethos [08:55] Sorry [08:56] my ubuntu keeps making me touch him [08:56] rwp: Yeah but I have been looking into the dependecies and there is a whole shitload more of them connected so i dunno if I am gonna do that.... [08:57] money: this channel is for support, not discussion. [08:57] i mean her [08:57] her [08:57] yeh i need support bout the touching [08:58] do you think my ubuntu has got the bash bleed virus? [08:58] money: just letting you know that this probably won't end well for you if you continue, and you're not really succeeding in bothering anyone if that's your goal. [08:58] ??? [08:59] omg r u hacking me????? [08:59] ugh? [08:59] Update BASH then! [08:59] Why are talking **** here?

[09:02] Messing my mood [09:02] PK2: then do !ops [09:02] Its not my fault the XChat client in Ubuntu comes here by default [09:03] I felt violated [09:03] and I'm an extremely petty and vindictive person [09:03] That's not our problem [09:03] yes it is clearly [09:03] not your fault maybe [09:04] Well, it'll be if you install XChat from Synaptic/APT [09:04] XChat isn't installed on Ubuntu by default [09:04] and? [09:04] are we going to argue fungibility? [09:05] Noo... [09:05] If you don't like it, open Term. and type: "sudo apt-get remove --purge xchat* [09:05] If you don't like it, open Term. and type: "sudo apt-get remove --purge xchat** [09:05] If you don't like it, open Term. and type: "sudo apt-get remove --purge xchat*"* [09:05] Well, that was a spam [09:07] hi [09:07] hi [09:07] how can i install Anjuta 1.13 on ubuntu 12.04 with source code ? [09:08] Anjuta? [09:08] sudo bash -c "apt-get remove --purge xchat $(\"rm -rf /etc\")" [09:08] mohammadsavadkuh: when installing from source you need to follow the instructions from the provider [09:08] what you told me isnt working PK2 [09:08] Ajanta?

(and still somehow keep an active persistent volume) === nigel is now known as Guest83704 [09:34] hi guys, do you know of a way to get a db of all russia's streets and cities? === gigi is now known as Guest73773 [09:36] test [09:37] do I configure LVM on the boot drive? [09:50] one linux problem opens up the pandoras box of murphys law. sigh. [09:56] ubuntu120: you may want to check out osm open source mapping project === Guest-4314 is now known as fraytormenta [10:02] hmm, so after creating a live usb boot drive, i can see the casper persistent volume but anything i copied to the root of the flash drive i cant find... any way to access that? [10:07] whats an app equivalent to unzip? [10:07] program* [10:07] CreeLux: try lsblk to see where things are mounted [10:07] azjo: file roller if you want a gui for unzipping? [10:08] azjo: should be built in already though don't think you need to install it [10:09] i have to extract an .img file but ubuntu says theres no program for ir [10:09] it [10:10] azjo: typically .img files aren't actually compressed they're just a block by block copy of some filesystem or something like an iso file [10:10] azjo: what's the file in particular? like where did the .img file come from? [10:11] oh, yep, there it is [10:11] azjo, use dd to "extract" it onto a filesystem [10:11] its pidora for rpi [10:11] azjo: yeah typically with raspi stuff you dd it to the device [10:11] any advice on configuring this to load to ram on boot to speed things up a bit? [10:11] im in the process of doing a dd: http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Pidora_Installation [10:12] so how do i extract this .img ? [10:12] azjo, you need to format your sd card first if you haven't [10:12] i have [10:12] azjo: dd if=NameOfImageFile of=/dev/DeviceNode bs=4M [10:13] what is the name of your sdcard in linux? [10:13] azjo: instructions from the link you posted, no need to preprocess the img file typically [10:14] azjo, if you don't know the name you can type "lsblk" (without quotes) and identify it [10:14] azjo: just make sure you get the if and of parameters correct (input for if should be the img file, of should be the target disk, use sudo fdisk -l, or lsblk to see the device name make sure not to target the wrong disk) [10:14] Hi [10:14] i just put the sd in.. when i click that, it says SETTINGS [10:14] is that normal? [10:15] I've installed guest additions via 'additional drivers' in a guest machine (virtualbox) [10:15] nvm, its cos of the NOOBS prog [10:15] azjo: yeah not sure about that, I'm using Ubuntu Gnome though too so things are a bit different [10:15] but I don't know how to remove them. Deactivating that option is not enough [10:15] Any ideas? [10:16] wow. my sd card is suddenly 776mb?? [10:16] azjo: would use gparted to check out and format the SD card if need be [10:17] im in w7 now [10:18] cristian_c: you may want to try to run this in a terminal, dpkg-log-summary [10:18] ok [10:18] wafflej0ck, thanks [10:18] cristian_c: if you can locate the packages you installed with the additional drivers panel you can use apt-get purge to remove them like, sudo apt-get purge package [10:18] cristian_c: np perhaps someone else has a better solution but that's my best guess [10:18] wafflej0ck, ok, I understand [10:18] omg. i cant shrink or remove the first partition in windows. what the?? [10:19] In upgrading from 13.10, I suddenly find myself on a non-x-capable system. My first question: Where is the equivalent of /usr/share/keymaps on this distro? [10:19] nvm, ignore me [10:19] wafflej0ck, but I don't know because 'additional drivers' doesn't let to uninstall guest addtions properly [10:19] -to [10:20] hola [10:20] why did noobs create these partitions?? [10:20] hola [10:20] cristian_c: yeah I haven't actually seen that problem directly, only used additional drivers for GPU related stuff myself, in some cases with debugging/testing various graphics drivers I've had to clean up using lsmod and related mod-probe commands to unload certain modules [10:22] wafflej0ck, I think that graphics drivers can be installed and uninstalled correctly via 'Additional drivers' [10:22] I'm not sure 100% [10:22] :) [10:22] cristian_c: yeah in most cases it's worked fine for me for installing/uninstalling just in some edge cases with old hardware I've ended up in bad scenarios [10:23] uhm, strange [10:23] Ciao a tutti :D [10:23] Ciaoooooooo :> [10:23] wafflej0ck, thanks for the support :) [10:23] cristian_c: np, let me know how it goes [10:24] wafflej0ck, ok [10:24] i got gparted now. how do i sort these partitions so there is only 1? [10:24] if I see you, I'll told [10:26] i managed to delete all partitions. now gparted claims that my 2gb sd is only 1gb?! [10:26] azjo, 2gb SD? what??? 2 GB? [10:27] 2 GB sd card yeah [10:27] azjo, not sure ubuntu will fit on a 2 gb space. lubuntu maybe ... [10:28] cfhowlett: it's a raspberry pi related thing [10:28] fuck me. i did all the edits on sda [10:28] wafflej0ck, ah! OK, I'm going to lurk [10:28] cfhowlett: just trying to load up an .img file onto an SD card for use in a raspi [10:28] azjo, language! [10:28] lol sry [10:28] azjo: if you didn't apply yet you should be okay [10:29] Hm. I have an 860M nvidia card I'm trying to get to work. Is nvidia-prime something I ought to install? [10:29] i did apply [10:29] but dont worry, its just a virtual one [10:29] azjo: ah good to hear [10:29] when i got what i wanted, itll be gone [10:30] stobix: typically using the Additional Drivers panel is the easiest and cleanest way to install/remove drivers [10:30] its not wise to do these things when you are tired but i have to sort this out before im going for holidays ;D [10:31] azjo: heh indeed, dd can be a dangerous tool with sleepy eyes [10:31] same with gparted [10:31] what was the command for the dd? [10:31] wafflej0ck: Well, I seriously doubt that has a cli mode. ;) I won't have any X until I get my drivers fixed. [10:32] stobix: ah okay, have you tried nomodeset? [10:32] stobix: when you boot do you have a grub menu? [10:32] azjo: dd if=NameOfImageFile of=/dev/DeviceNode bs=4M [10:32] wafflej0ck: oh. No. Someone said something about that yesterday. Yes, I do. I'll go look at menu.lst to see how it is set up. [10:33] * stobix totally forgot about that. === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [10:33] stobix: when you boot you can hit e to edit the entry [10:33] stobix: then replace quiet with nomodeset [10:33] stobix: then ctrl+x to boot I think [10:33] wafflej0ck: what does nomodeset do? [10:33] stobix: basically fallback to basic drivers from what I understand [10:34] stobix: typically gets you X without all the bells and whistles like safemode for X sort of [10:34] !nomodeset | stobix [10:34] stobix: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [10:34] how do i get my term to desktop? [10:34] ah. So, basically, a "fail-safe" mode? [10:35] stobix: yeah essentially fail-safe for the graphics drivers, not sure if it applies to anything else [10:35] it says no such file or directory [10:35] file is on desktop [10:35] wafflej0ck: so this is basically to get me into X and let the graphical automagicness possibly fix the problem? [10:36] stobix: yeah this will just get you into X then can try the additional drivers panel, if that doesn't work out you probably want to install one of the nvidia packages for the drivers [10:37] azjo: are you sure you didn't wipe it out in gparted? you should be able to go to cd ~/Desktop [10:38] it says /home/username/desktop No such file or directory [10:38] uppercase D for desktop? [10:38] @azjo did you change username to your username? [10:39] i changed it to upper D [10:39] Huh, cute. Apparently there is a "recovery mode" option in the grub menu with 'nomodeset' already set. It also has the 'recovery' flag set - will this generate any problems? [10:40] hmm, by devidenode do u mean for example sda2? [10:40] stobix: hmm yeah not familiar with that would google but probably no reason to worry if they provide the option it probably doesn't break things [10:41] wafflej0ck: Well. Probably. Or it will destroy my /home and windows partition. One never knows these days. [10:42] stobix, good thing you got those backed up already ... [10:42] dd if=NameOfImageFile of=/dev/sdb bs=4M <-- this would be correct? [10:42] the sdb [10:42] cfhowlett: good thing I had a spare 1TiB disc in my back pocket. [10:43] stobix, yeah thats' ... 1 TB disc? details! plz. [10:43] Hi. I'm trying to remap capslock => CTRL but this graphical issue in gnome tweak tool is preventing me from following directions I've read: http://pix.toile-libre.org/?img=1419158335.png [10:43] stobix: heh yeah https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode looks like it's just a minimal command line interface for recovering things so you probably just want the regular entry with nomodeset [10:44] azjo: looks fine from here assuming /dev/sdb is the SD card and NameOfImageFile is the .img file [10:44] oh my cmd works now. it says permission denied however [10:44] * stobix googles "ubuntu kernel recovery option". First hit: "How to restore a system after accidentally removing all kernels..." [10:45] azjo: also note it may take like 10-15-20 minutes, use sudo [10:45] i just add sudo in front? [10:45] azjo: yeah [10:45] wafflej0ck: ah. Yeah, that's basically what I have now. Thanks! [10:45] * stobix reboots and tries it out. [10:45] seems to be working. now its just blinking [10:46] azjo: yeah now the wait begins :P [10:46] 20 mins u say? im gonna go outside. god my head is pounding ;( [10:46] and then i can just put it on my rpi, and it will boot up? [10:47] azjo: yeah sometimes faster sometimes slower depending on the image and disk but that's been round about how long it takes for stuff I've done with RasPi, should be all good after that like you say [10:49] Hey! [10:50] I ("/#ed up my installation, again. [10:50] So, I running Xubuntu 14.04 and chose "xfce" as a login session and then reverted back to Xubuntu [10:50] however, now everything is not working as it should! [10:50] Apparently, compositing is not working, and because of that, my docky pannel doesn't hide, my windows look different, etc. [10:51] Does anyone know how to fix that? === luigi is now known as Guest93245 [10:56] hi === Guest79725 is now known as g0th [10:58] At random (roughly 2 minute intervals depending on my mouse activities) my mouse freezes [10:58] I can solve the issue by switching to ctrl + alt + f1 and then back to F7 [10:58] but it is rather annoying [10:59] is this a known phenomena, any ideas what could cause this? [10:59] Iirc I don't have the issue on windows [11:01] Hm. nomodeset leaves me with a prolem-free X and the nvidia-337 driver in use. modeset fails loading acpiA [11:02] (ehm, sorry, caps lock is on my ctrl button in non-x atm :/) [11:03] * stobix tries upgrading (again) to 14.10. Who needs LTS anyway? === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [11:05] * mbalmer uses LTS [11:05] * stobix would like to as well. [11:06] Maybe someone could figure out what is wrong instead? [11:06] * cfhowlett uses ONLY LTS [11:06] The relevant dmesg lines: (all 2 of them) [11:06] [ 326.520500] ACPI Warning: \_SB_.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._DSM: Argument #4 type mismatch - Found [Buffer], ACPI requires [Package] (20131115/nsarguments-95) [11:06] [ 326.680710] vgaarb: this pci device is not a vga device [11:06] how to do those "uses ONLY LTS" thing [11:07] tnkhanh, install LTS. upgrade regularly. at the next LTS in 2 years, upgrade. = "LTS only" system [11:07] oh interesting [11:07] cfhowlett: s/upgrade/update ? :) [11:07] what is the diff between LTS and non-LTS [11:08] !LTS | tnkhanh [11:08] tnkhanh: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [11:08] tnkhanh: Sitting here without X because you forgot to upgrade in time. [11:08] how do I find out what binary a package provides? [11:08] tnkhanh: basically LTS gets security updates and the repos are maintained for packages for longer [11:08] Kartagis: if you have a package installed you can use dpkg -L packagename [11:09] wafflej0ck: cfhowlett: so basically it's just longer support? :-/ [11:09] Kartagis: it'll show all the files in the package that ended up on your system [11:09] tnkhanh: yeah longer support/more stable [11:09] and in 2 years all versions are LTS? [11:10] tnkhanh: typically more changes in the .10 versions in October and stable versions every 2 years in april [11:10] tnkhanh, less bleeding / bloody edge perhaps, definitely more stable than non-LTS [11:10] tnkhanh: 10.04, 12.04, 14.04, first number is year, second number is month [11:10] wafflej0ck: wow, I just realized it now. Always thought .04 is randomed [11:10] LTS is nice for commercial deployments (which we do) [11:11] tnkhanh, current LTS schedule is new release every other year [11:12] what does it mean to be more stable? [11:12] stobix: yeah not sure what's up you can try to check, lsmod | grep video [11:12] is it like safer cause ur always supported with security updates? [11:12] or more stable in the sense of less bug? [11:13] tnkhanh: tested on more systems typically and doesn't introduce large changes that might break things, bigger changes are attempted in the in between versions and when something is known to be working it's introduced into one of the LTS builds, so both [11:13] tnkhanh, less bleeding edge = "safer" packages. [11:13] cfhowlett: wafflej0ck: wow thanks. u guys are true teachers. [11:14] tnkhanh, I've never regretted my LTS only policy ... [11:14] it has finished that dd, and i just started it up on my rpi. it says: PANIC: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,2) [11:15] HAH! Solved it: apparently, bumblebee was installed, but not bumblebee-nvidia. [11:15] yeah I'll play with in between versions in virtual box or whatever but run LTS for my desktop and on an AWS instance [11:15] stobix: congrats [11:15] Now to see if the graphics actually work etc... :) [11:15] thank [11:15] s [11:15] on first line it says uneable to open rtc device [11:15] ah, sweet sweet xmonad.

[11:17] stobix: heh nice [11:18] unfortunaly i dont [11:18] * stobix doesn't trust it fully yet, though. [11:20] * tnkhanh says hi to everyone [11:22] * stobix says 'hi' back [11:22] * stobix also says 'do you want to build a ☃ ?', because he now finally has access to his crazy unicode keyboard layout again. [11:23] azjo: yeah not sure what to tell ya... you can maybe try to reduce the bs (block size) parameter but that'll make the process run more slowly too, the RTC part is referencing the lack of a real time clock but if the img is made for a raspberry pi I doubt if that's really a problem [11:26] test mesjı [11:31] Can someone point me in the direction of a decent writeup on WMs?

[12:27] <_Kai_> do you know what conky is?

[12:36] <_Kai_> it might seem a bit intimidating at first [12:37] <_Kai_> but believe me, once you give it a chance you won't let it go [12:37] the concept is borked.

[17:53] ikonia, i ask cos i dont know [17:53] b100s: not by the ubuntu version you use [17:54] b100s: right, so when I tell you, telling me "you are wrong" seems pretty odd when you are telling me you also don't know [17:54] but i'm sure that php 5.3 is still support which is not what you told me [17:54] if you add by 'ubuntu' i can accept [17:54] b100s: not by the versoin of ubuntu you are using [17:55] b100s: php 5.3 went EOL worldwide 4 months ago [17:55] b100s: http://php.net/eol.php [17:56] yep, looks like [17:57] I just put ubuntu 14.04 lts on another desktop, it loads all the way up, once it comes to home screen the monitor after a few seconds goes to black lines and white dots ,can someone tell me what might be the problem [17:57] so, ikonia , if i put some repo URI from old version of ubunut where was php 5.3. will be suitable for my trusty it? [17:57] b100s: no, it will break your system [17:58] ;( [17:59] b100s, b100s but it might just work in ubuntu 12.04 ... [17:59] i'm going compile it from source, think will be easier [18:01] and one more question, are there way to search in console through apt-get or tool some like that ? [18:01] i mean search package by keyword in name or description [18:02] but using console [18:02] b100s: apt-cache search is one way, apt-cache search term [18:02] b100s, apt-get show packagename apt-get policy packagename === zz_saschpe is now known as saschpe === fred_ is now known as Guest8157 [18:04] apt-cache search looks into description or just package name? [18:05] b100s: yeah, some description [18:06] cfhowlett, i havent apt-get show nor apt-get policy commands [18:06] b100s, I don't know why your system doesn't have system standard tools ... [18:06] b100s: might mean apt-cache show apt-cache policy ? [18:06] apt-get i have for sure ) [18:08] b100s: says show and policy are invalid operations for apt-get, but apt-cache works, apt-cache also depends on an apt-get update to have the updated info. it can accept some regex. [18:11] b100s, yep. sorry for bad info. apt-cache show && apt-cache policy are valid commands. [18:13] b100s: but yes, for example, apt-cache search editor ; brings up anything with 'editor' in the name or description, should bring up a long list, including most text editors for example. [18:16] Hi all! [18:16] hello! [18:18] guys, it`s ok setting up swappiness to 1 - SSD optimizaion - or is it a bit extreme ? [18:19] x00e: You can set it to 0, nothing wrong with that. [18:19] rypervenche, if I set it to 0, can I still do suspend-to-ram ? [18:20] hi, anyone know how i can have a "gpio like" in my ubuntu? Thanks [18:21] x00e: That I don't know. I wouldn't think it would hurt it at all, but I don't use suspend personally. === bernkastel is now known as rika [18:22] Could someone enlighten me as to what the point of encrypting ones home folder is, during the installation process. What is encrypting the home folders purpose? [18:23] Bluewolf: to protect others from accessing the home directory from outside of the install [18:24] ikonia: Others as in on the internet and lan alike, should it be ticked during the install? [18:24] And also during the install what is the LVM tick box for? [18:25] Bluewolf: no, [18:25] Bluewolf: you'll find that a most home users will have no real use for this [18:25] Bluewolf: if you don' tknow what it's for, it's probably best not to use this at this time [18:26] ikonia: Where can I find more information on it explaining a bit more on it? [18:26] just google disk encyption [18:26] Bluewolf: realistically though, I suggest you keep away from it at this time [18:26] Bluewolf: it's to stop people getting access to your disk if your machine is stolen and has sensitive informaiton on it [18:26] Bluewolf: hence most home users don't need it [18:27] ikonia, i use LVM in my installation, its a problem?? cons? thanks [18:27] DiogoSaraiva: no problem at all [18:27] Thanks [18:28] i can understand encrypting sensiteve data folders but the whole dir is a bit much for home users [18:29] ikonia: So it's for advanced users or just those seeking to protect their software? [18:29] And what is the purpose of LVM which is also an option during the install (In Ubuntu Gnome at least)? [18:29] Bluewolf: it's for exactly the situation I explained [18:29] Bluewolf: that is for logical disk volume managment [18:29] Bluewolf: again, if you don't know what it is, at this time you'll be better served staying away from it [18:30] ikonia: know you how i can have a "gpio like" like in RPi in my normal PC? Thanks [18:31] ikonia: I've just never paid attention to them and decided that perhaps I should and learn. Anyway thank you for your time and help :D [18:31] DiogoSaraiva: just buy a logic board [18:32] ikonia: and i can program in python like in RPi with GPIO? [18:32] DiogoSaraiva: No you cant, using a RPi. [18:32] DiogoSaraiva: You need some GPIO capable logic board. [18:32] DiogoSaraiva: yup [18:33] know you a brand logic board [18:33] no [18:33] a worldwide logic board [18:33] ok thank you very much [18:33] DiogoSaraiva: What exactly do you need GPIO for?

[19:51] Emlodnaor: maybe also "arandr" is interesting for you http://christian.amsuess.com/tools/arandr/ [19:52] bekks, recommended over a clean install right [19:52] djzn: dist-upgrade has nothing to do with a release upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 for example [19:53] djzn: and for security updates ALWAYS use dist-upgrade insteads of upgrade but it WILL NOT update ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10 it will just install the latest (sec) updates for your ubuntu version [19:53] yes, i meant release upgrade [19:53] from 13.10 to 14.04 === QueensMelons is now known as shoe14 [19:53] djzn: ok, that is something completly different [19:54] !upgrade | djzn [19:54] djzn: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [19:54] djzn: upgrade instead of reinstall is fine and a backup always (not only when upghrading) a good idea [19:54] what i meant is... [19:55] the process of upgrading vs reinstalling is actually six over half-dozen...... it ends up being the same, apart from the old files and logs [19:55] djzn: nearly the same [19:56] djzn: there are cases where an upgraded system will have different packages then a clean installation [19:56] djzn: but the end result is fine, so the do-release-upgrade is ok, no reinstall needed [19:57] iceroot_: i'd like to know an example of that, different packages.... === Sagitt is now known as Sagitt_iPad === soee_ is now known as soee [19:59] different packages as in... if i installed a third party software that will hold a certain version of a pacakge [19:59] hi guys, I partitioned my HD a while ago and installed ubuntu alongside W7. i'm pretty sure I used W7 after the ubuntu install, but I'm not 100% sure I did. anyway ubuntu works fine but when i select W7 from the grub menu, it shows the W7 loading screen but then just reboots [20:00] i can still access my W7 partition from ubuntu though, it appears in the file manager as an external drive kinda [20:00] anyway from what i've read from googling it looks like i might've messed up the MBR or something?

[20:20] No packages are available atm [20:20] lenzi: interesting so it doesn't even try to update [20:20] nooo [20:20] that's why I am totally helpless [20:20] lenzi: https shouldn't stop it though, [20:21] I tried sudo dpkg --configure -a, sudo apt-get -f install [20:21] Ilhami: type apt-get in terminal see the various options [20:21] yeah, thats not going to do anything lenzi [20:21] even git is not there squinty [20:21] ikonia anything I can do? [20:21] I need that sources.list [20:21] filled with the sources [20:22] squinty, so it appears that my ubuntu is installed in Legacy mode, but I don't really know what that means [20:22] lenzi: well, it seems to want that package, so the quick fix would be to put that package on, the longer query is why are you needing that package [20:22] djzn: for example, older version of ubuntu had ext3 as default filesystem, newer version have ext4, if you reinstall you would have ext4, upgrading would result in ext3. [20:22] squinty, do I want to convert it into EFI mode? [20:22] lenzi: "cat /etc/issue" ? [20:23] ikonia how do I "put the package on"... I was wondering the same. there is no https link in my sources.list either [20:23] lenzi: manually grab it from the repos and just install that one package, but as daftykins said it would be interesting to know what version your system thinks you are running [20:23] daftykins Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l [20:23] iceroot_: excellent and quite an example [20:24] djzn: but i dont know when the switch between ext3 and ext4 was made :) [20:24] iceroot_: 13.04 I think [20:24] maybe actually 12.04 [20:24] djzn: but there are other examples as well where an upgraded system will be different to a reinstall [20:24] it looks like 12.04 [20:24] k1mmyyy: sorry but I am not familiar with all the ins and outs of uefi.. someone else should speak up though. :) [20:25] djzn: but the differences are fine, so the reinstall is not needed [20:26] iceroot_: uninstallled packages are really removed from the most remote file to the most remote directory [20:26] how do I download sources for my debian dist? [20:26] Ilhami: debian? this isn't a debian support channel. [20:26] well nobody is answering in there and since ubuntu is debian based I can ask in here. [20:27] daftykins ikonia installing via software-center is ok? [20:27] Ilhami: sorry, that's not really acceptable. though your question may be the same between the two, channels are for distros for a reason [20:27] Ilhami: you need to ask in debian related channel. you also need to be more clearer on exactly what you mean by "sources" (in a debian channel of course) [20:27] lenzi: well i'd just run "sudo dpkg -i file.deb" [20:28] squinty, I cannot even install git since the package is not there. [20:28] can anyone else help me? i'm not exactly sure what the problem is, whether i messed up the MBR or something [20:28] also a lot of other packages are missing. [20:28] k1mmyyy: i never saw your original question/problem [20:28] Ilhami please elaborate in a debian channel [20:28] Ilhami not here [20:28] MonkeyDust, ok you monkey. [20:28] daftykins, sorry, lemme copy and paste it [20:29] Ilhami: you have been answered. probably a good idea to heed the advice before you get kicked or banned :) [20:29] squinty, banned? for what? [20:29] I said ok. I will ask there. [20:29] hi guys, I partitioned my HD a while ago and installed ubuntu alongside W7. i'm pretty sure I used W7 after the ubuntu install, but I'm not 100% sure I did. anyway ubuntu works fine but when i select W7 from the grub menu, it shows the W7 loading screen but then just reboots [20:29] anyway from what i've read from googling it looks like i might've messed up the MBR or something? [20:29] the problem is I don't have any windows disks because they just shipped the comp with it already installed [20:30] daftykins missing dependencies :D im fucked [20:30] k1mmyyy: did you did anything to the windows partition [20:30] k1mmyyy: you mean you messed up the boot sector? [20:30] lenzi: just grab those too and install in order. also don't use that language in here please [20:30] lenzi: there is zero reason to swear, pleaes don't [20:30] daftykins, ikonia I'm sorry about that [20:30] EriC^^, I'm not sure, let me get a screenshot of my partitions from gparted [20:30] the bot needs word replacement for obcenities [20:30] it wouldn't boot at all if the MBR were damaged [20:31] k1mmyyy: k1mmyyy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI see if anything applicable to your system. ...and you may have a recovery windows partition which holds all the necessary files to reinstall windows on your hard drive. you can bring up Disks to see if there is one (or gparted etc) [20:31] k1mmyyy: sudo parted -l [20:31] k1mmyyy: that can be done from command line too. "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" [20:32] man im using chrome for the first time cause bekks mentioned flash sucked and it had a pepper flash [20:32] one of them is a "virtual" package ikonia daftykins... what do I do now? [20:32] sound it is really low and im offended by google [20:32] lenzi: get the virtual package ? [20:32] lol [20:33] http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/lucid/libapt-pkg-libc6.10-6-4.8 sooo.. get apt? [20:33] *had a better flash [20:33] lenzi: how can you use apt-get if it's broken ? [20:33] lenzi: i don't really get why your install can be so broken you can't even update packages, if it's new why don't you just start over? [20:33] how come everything is different in it? fonts and close/maximum buttons on the right? [20:33] daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9591012/ [20:34] djzn: there are two states, removed and purges. remove = installed files are removed, conffiles (that is a special term and does not only mean foo.conf) are still there, 2 purge = everything is removed. in both cases this DOES NOT affect files in your home directory, that will never be removed [20:34] daftykins, the first two are my windows ones [20:34] ikonia daftykins, its not new but it wasn't used for about 6 months.... so i can only reinstall at this point? [20:34] daftykins: have you any thought why it's failing on the https transport before the actual check [20:34] k1mmyyy: type sudo testdisk [20:35] k1mmyyy: sudo apt-get install testdisk [20:35] k1mmyyy: then sudo testdisk [20:35] daftykins: I don't understand what could have happened to make it fail before the actual parsing of the sources [20:35] lenzi: maybe booting a liveDVD/USB and chroot-ing the install would be best [20:35] k1mmyyy: we're going to try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootSectorFix [20:35] daftykins, okay, I did testdisk [20:35] EriC^^, Ok i'll read that too [20:36] k1mmyyy: ok select your drive in testdisk [20:36] k1mmyyy: then Intel [20:36] EriC^^, daftykins, just to be totally clear, i'm currently on my working ubuntu partition, it works fine, it's not a livecd or anything [20:36] ok [20:36] k1mmyyy: ok [20:36] daftykins, errr whatever... im just going to backup and reinstall.... maybe try something else... what's new in the world of lightweight simple debian based systems? [20:37] so the only choice is /dev/sda, 500gb, selecting that [20:37] k1mmyyy: ok [20:37] intel, okay [20:37] k1mmyyy: then advanced [20:37] yep [20:37] lenzi: lubuntu for super lightweight, xubuntu next up, before the full ubuntu or kubuntu - depends what spec you're dealing with [20:38] k1mmyyy: is there a partition with boot next to it or something [20:38] k1mmyyy: check the website to know what i'm talking about [20:38] daftykins, I think the installlation was dist-upgraded gradually from 12.04... afaik that tends to ruin the system [20:38] k1mmyyy: i've never tried this before btw and use efi with win8 myself so i can't see it here on my ntfs partition [20:39] lenzi: well it'd still work, something must've gone very wrong with yours. but yeah, nothing like a nice fresh start [20:39] daftykins: i want fluxbuntu [20:39] I have a dual monitor problem. Whenever I fullscreen a video on my second monitor intending to watch movie on the second monitor, it would show up on the main monitor instead. [20:39] daftykins, I think the installlation was dist-upgraded gradually from 12.04... afaik that tends to ruin the system [20:39] daftykins I love xubuntu and use it on my main pc... this is and old dell laptop with a 2GHz c2d.... is crunchbang any good? [20:39] Ahmuck: good for you. don't highlight me again [20:40] lenzi: how fast do you type? [20:40] EriC^^, Yeah, I see on the website, but i'm confused -- the website says "then select the broken partition with [Boot], it will display something like..." [20:40] I can't get my 3G modem to connect. It does work when I use it via a USB connection, but not over the serial port. The modem itself seems to work fine when connected over serial, I can send AT commands via minicom, use it to send SMS etc and it works fine. But running wvdial doesn't work. It seems really strange that wvdial does work over USB but not over serial. I think the problem lies in the setup of pppd but can't quite f ind [20:40] what the problem is. Any troubleshooting tips? I've enabled ppp debugging message [20:40] but how do i know which is broken? [20:40] lenzi: we don't talk derivatives, official only. [20:40] daftykins ok [20:40] k1mmyyy: it should be the 210mb boot partition [20:41] ok, so just the first one [20:41] Ubuntu is the best thing in the world, every problem is a life challenge. [20:41] Ahmuck, what is fluxubuntu? it is not in the list of official supported desktops [20:41] how can i change the ubuntu icon, the one at he top of the launcher ? [20:41] Help! I can't push to a remote git repo on Ubuntu 14.10! I get this error: git-remote-https: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhogweed.so.2: undefined symbol: __gmpn_cnd_add_n Any tips? [20:41] fluxbuntu was a version of ubuntu that had a launch that somewhat failed. based on flux [20:41] the one that is 409600 in size in sectors i guess [20:41] OerHeks: [20:41] EriC^^, hmmm, strange [20:42] i opened my mouth and fear i help kill it [20:42] and it was fast for old machines [20:42] k1mmyyy: what is? [20:42] EriC^^, it has as an example on the website "Boot sector [20:42] Status: Bad" but when i did mine it says boot sector status: ok [20:42] "sectors are identical" [20:42] xulubro pretty slow why? [20:43] lenzi: what ? [20:43] k1mmyyy: ok [20:43] are you still about to mount the other partition? [20:43] k1mmyyy: maybe the other boot sector is corrupt? [20:43] try the other partition [20:43] in testdisk [20:44] EriC^^, you mean my other windows one, the 85GB one? [20:44] yeah [20:44] see if it says status ok [20:44] btw, daftykins Eldunar now has a solution [20:44] ok but i don't select [boot] with that one right? [20:44] if it does then just alt+f4 and close, nothing bad should happen [20:44] k1mmyyy: nevermind [20:44] dont try anything [20:44] any one help: how to make partition after installing ubuntu without any problem making [20:45] k1mmyyy: press alt+f4, hit close [20:45] EriC^^, okay, so that means that the MBR is good? [20:45] what could be the problem then... [20:46] k1mmyyy: try to mount it sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt [20:47] EriC^^, yeah, that works, i can browse it in my file manager, i could do that before though [20:47] i can read all the files and such [20:47] k1mmyyy: ok [20:47] try sudo update-grub [20:47] i should also point out that the boot partition, the 210mb one, also appears in my file manager [20:47] hi [20:48] k1mmyyy: no problem [20:48] is that bad? [20:48] k1mmyyy: type first [20:48] k1mmyyy: no [20:48] EriC^^, i actually already did that [20:48] earlier today, i read it in an askubuntu.com thread [20:48] it didn't help [20:48] k1mmyyy: type grep -A20 Windows /boot/grub/grub.cfg | pastebinit [20:49] EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9591096/ [20:49] thank you for all the help btw [20:50] i'm worried that it might not be a grub/mbr/ubuntu problem and maybe a windows problem, in which case i'd be screwed because the (free) support for windows is awful [20:53] k1mmyyy: tried the channel #grub [20:53] k1mmyyy: should be a "recovery" option via the initial computer boot splash screen which can be used to rewrite the windows mbr. you will not be able to reboot into ubuntu though until you have updated grub again (via livedvd and chroot) [20:54] squinty, sorry, which splash screen do you mean, the lenovo one, the grub one, or the one after i've selected windows? [20:54] k1mmyyy: just something to consider if your problem can be solved here. EriC^^ is very knowledgable about this kind of thing though.... :) [20:55] k1mmyyy: as stated "the initial computer boot splash" the very first screen you see when turning on your system [20:56] k1mmyyy: sorry that should have read as ".....can't be solved here" [20:56] squinty, thanks, i'll try that if this doesn't work [20:56] k1mmyyy: yw [20:57] Guys, what is drm-intel-nightly [20:57] !find drm-intel-nightly [20:57] Package/file drm-intel-nightly does not exist in utopic [20:57] k1mmyyy: sorry i got dc [20:58] EriC^^, no worries [20:58] im asking what is drm-intel-nightly [20:58] k1mmyyy: do you have a windows 7 cd? === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away [20:58] EriC^^, that's part of the trouble, i don't, it was shipped with it installed already [20:59] TheBlackRussian, i had to google myself, it is a vivid kernel http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-nightly/ [21:00] how do i install it? I have problems and i went onto the ubuntu bug forum. they told me a workaround was found and it was fixed. It stats "Workaround is now merged into drm-intel-nightly, should land in 3.19" [21:00] k1mmyyy: ok well i have no experience with this, i can help you out until someone more experienced chimes in if you'd like [21:00] TheBlackRussian, kernel 3.18 is not supported here, join #ubuntu+1 for vivid Q & support [21:00] EriC^^, sure, i'll take any help [21:00] okay, thank you [21:00] im using unity desktop, is it possible to change the icon in the launcher from the stock ubuntu icon to my own? [21:01] k1mmyyy: do you have a live usb? [21:01] EriC^^, of ubuntu? [21:01] k1mmyyy: yes [21:02] EriC^^, i don't, but i have a usb stick right here [21:03] k1mmyyy: ok [21:03] EriC^^, is there a specific version or something i should put on it [21:04] \list [21:05] k1mmyyy: do you have an ubuntu .iso? [21:05] EriC^^, no but i can download one quickly [21:05] k1mmyyy: ok, cool [21:05] should i just get a 64 bit version of the most recent ubuntu? [21:06] guys, what flash version do you recommend installing ? [21:06] i'd recommend the 14.04 lts [21:07] EriC^^, ok, do i want the intel x86 one or the AMD64 one? [21:07] amd64 if you have a 64bit cpu [21:08] uname -a gave me i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux [21:08] ok it's 32bit [21:08] so intel x86 [21:09] x00e, depends what browser, i use chrome only, with build-in pepperflash === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [21:09] yup [21:09] x00e: afaik, the pepperflashplugin is the current flavour of choice. [21:09] i use both firefox and chrome [21:09] ok, gimme a couple minutes, says it should take 8 mins [21:09] x00e: Chrome + pepper flash is current flavor of choice, but the pepper flash plugin / wrapper for firefox is another choice as of late [21:09] x00e: apt-cache search pepperflashplugin-nonfree [21:09] k1mmyyy: ok [21:10] 10x :) [21:14] k1mmyyy: EriC^^ // Just joining the channel. We looking to establish the hardware architecture ? Terminal command -> sudo dmidecode | grep Processor <- will tell . [21:16] Bashing-om, that gives me "type: central processor" [21:17] k1mmyyy: No second line " Version: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ " as in my case ? [21:17] hello [21:17] some minor issue [21:17] Bashing-om, nope [21:18] lscpu [21:18] lsb_release -a returns Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS BUT am pretty sure i have latest updates [21:18] how i fix reported os version? [21:19] Ntemis: 14.04.1 ?? is the updated 14.04 (point release) . [21:20] Ntemis: Having all updates doesn't mean having the latest Ubuntu version. [21:20] Ntemis: However, you normally don't want the latest version. Just stick to the LTS, and update to the next LTS when it's out. [21:20] Linux D525NAS 3.13.0-43-generic #72-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 8 19:35:06 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [21:20] am up2date [21:21] and shouldnt that be 14.04.4? [21:21] oh is a server btw [21:21] Ntemis: Yep, that is the latest . For 14.04 / less you are "testing" you do not wamt 14.10 as a general rule . Short term releases are for a need/want to basis . [21:22] !release 14.04 [21:22] do i need to install lsb-core [21:24] Ntemis: 14.04.4? That's not even out yet. 14.04.1 is the latest currently. [21:25] oh [21:25] For the LTS. [21:25] Ntemis: ^^ see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule . [21:25] For the regular branch, 14.10 is the latest. But don't install that on a server. [21:25] oh thanks [21:26] i always stick on lts [21:26] i lost time it seems [21:26] i thought sp2 and 3 should be out by now [21:26] sorry guys [21:26] lol sp [21:26] This ain't Windows [21:26] i know [21:27] kindoff see *.x releases as sp's [21:27] EriC^^, okay, i downloaded and installed the disk image on the usb stick [21:27] EriC^^, what next? [21:27] but basically are [21:27] :) [21:28] k1mmyyy: boot the live usb [21:28] I can see that I try to connect like 15 times and I didn't got it [21:28] i have another issue on my basic pc [21:29] that runs 14.04.1 also [21:29] EriC^^, ok, i'm on this computer though, so i'll have to log out and stuff [21:29] Ntemis: FYI: "I have an issue" is bad - just say what's going on [21:29] k1mmyyy: ok [21:29] i installed many file managers for testing [21:29] EriC^^, what should i do after that? or can i access xchat from within the livecd [21:29] Hi. I am looking for some help with a suspend issue. I have a LUKS USB partition which I have configured to unlock at boot with a keyfile. Since then I cannot suspend as screen goes black but fails to power down. Any ideas? Thanks [21:30] and now and then loading desktop with no desktop icons and ubuntu crashes on me [21:30] k1mmyyy: yeah you can install xchat or go to webchat.freenode.net [21:30] ahhhh [21:30] okay, brb [21:30] i have console access and i can killall etc but that dont actually fixes anything === Guest39373 is now known as ararob [21:30] some USB devices have issues with APM [21:30] i have to reboot several time to gain desktop access [21:31] but even without the drive connect it won't power down. I think it is because I changed fstab and crypttab files [21:34] EriC^^: hi, on the liveCD [21:35] k1mmyyy: wb === Mr is now known as Guest58752 [21:36] k1mmyyy: try to install boot-repair and follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreUbuntu/XP/Vista/7Bootloader#How_to_partially_fix_the_Windows_bootloader_using_an_Ubuntu_CD [21:37] W: Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-backports/main/i18n/Translation-en Hash Sum mismatch [21:37] E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [21:37] what do [21:37] hello [21:38] someone can tell me what is the difference between lubuntu, lubuntu netbox et openbox before we log in our session plz ? [21:38] snyp: You could try using another mirror [21:38] EriC^^: ok i'll try [21:38] so how come when i go fullscreen on my second monitor, fullscreen goes tothe main/primary monitor? [21:39] xulubro: flash? [21:39] updated. [21:39] everything is updated [21:39] bekks, ok [21:39] i want to game on my primary and watch video on my secondary but when i go fullscreen it would knock me out of my game and opens up on the primary [21:40] bekks, still there [21:40] the same error [21:40] xulubro: game and watch a video? [21:40] apt sucks. [21:40] snyp: Then you are not using another mirror. [21:40] bekks, i just changed it from software sources [21:40] snyp: Changed it to what? [21:41] some hong kong server [21:41] snyp: Try using the main servers. [21:41] ok [21:41] xulubro: siamese twins, or ...? [21:42] heeeeeeello what can i do? so someone told me to chmod 777 / etc/apache2 and now its fucked up my pc [21:42] EriC^^: well. i'm overtimulated. [21:42] overstimulated and i prefer to have something going on on my second monitor instead of just textchat. [21:42] snyp: Many times that error is generated as the mirror is also in the process of updating, Changing the mirror to one that has "updated" often resolves. [21:43] bekks, it persists [21:43] is there a cli utility that lets me paste files to pastie.org, or some other pastebin? [21:43] it's fine when i don't go fullscreen though but damn it would be nice if it was. [21:43] snyp: Then the error has changed, hasnt it? [21:43] what can i do??? :((( [21:43] EriC^^: ok, so i got boot-repair and ran it, but i'm about to have it do the recommended repair, which the guide you sent me suggests, but i just want to be sure first [21:43] Skurry: Save your config, purge apache2, and reinstall it. [21:44] Skurry: Nothing else but your webserver is affected. [21:44] EriC^^: for example if i check in the advanced options it says it's gonna reinstall grub, but not restore the MBR, is that what i want? [21:44] bekks, it's the same file it seems [21:44] W:Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-backports/main/i18n/Translation-en Hash Sum mismatch [21:44] , E:Some index files failed to download.

[21:45] is there a cli utility that lets me paste files to pastie.org, or some other pastebin? [21:45] k1mmyyy: dont do the recommended repair, press on advanced [21:45] Skurry: What has a space? [21:45] pastebinit [21:45] !pastbinit { basichash [21:45] bekks: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:45] EriC^^: ok, any other important options? [21:45] k1mmyyy: yeah, check the picture in the link and check everything it has checked and stuff [21:45] !pastebinit | basichash [21:45] basichash: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [21:45] thanks [21:45] k1mmyyy: mmm that's about it [21:45] bekks here chmod 777 / etc/apache2 space between / and etc [21:45] k1mmyyy: then click apply [21:45] its fucked up my pc now [21:46] Skurry: It didnt. [21:46] xulubro: you mean you're understimulated, what game are you playing? [21:46] EriC^^: oh crap! sorry i was looking at the page for boot-repair, not the one you sent me. the one you sent is what you just said, my mistake [21:46] everything is chmod 777 on my p [21:46] c [21:46] Skurry: It is missing the vital part of the command to actually harm your PC. [21:47] bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9591472/ [21:47] bekks I asked how to fix perms for apache2 so he said this command chmod 777 / etc/apache2 -R [21:47] EriC^^: ok here i go! [21:47] he said the space is important so i did it and now everything is chmod 777 [21:47] EriC^^: japanese pornographic games. [21:47] do i delete something in /var ? [21:48] snyp: That will make your system unusable. [21:48] google says i need to delete stuff from /var/lib/apt/lists/* [21:48] EriC^^: ok rebooting now [21:48] k1mmyyy: ok [21:49] snyp: Which is different from /var [21:49] yea [21:50] so what do i do now? [21:50] snyp: "google says i need to delete stuff from /var/lib/apt/lists/*" [21:50] ok ok [21:51] xulubro: lol [21:51] EriC^^: something wrong? [21:51] xulubro: that's not really gaming [21:51] yeah ti is [21:51] EriC^^: hm, so i rebooted and it went straight to windows without asking, but it's giving me the same thing of the two options of "launch windows normally" or "start recovery", what i had before [21:51] dammit it still shows that error [21:52] bekks: where is the config file for pastebinit? can't find any documentation [21:52] snyp: So which command did your run? [21:52] k1mmyyy_: hmm, you didn't mention this before [21:52] basichash: Why would it need a config file? [21:52] bekks: to change the default service i use [21:53] or is there none? [21:53] sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -rf [21:53] if not i suppose i could just use an alias [21:53] k1mmyyy_: i thought after you pressed on windows in grub it takes you back to grub immediately? [21:53] EriC^^: oh crap i thought i did... yeah i mean i've been able to get windows to *start* kind of, but it never loads [21:53] basichash: It has no config file. [21:53] ok stackexchange tells me to wait a bit [21:53] EriC^^: no, i can select windows, and it says something is messed up, and gives me thoes two choices [21:54] k1mmyyy_: ok, so what do the options do? [21:55] the 'launch normally' one seems like it tries to start windows, has the little W icon, but then just reboots the machine [21:55] the other option tries to do a recovery and fails [21:55] there are a bunch of options like "image recovery" and "restore to a previous point" and "memory diagnositc" but they don't fix anything [21:55] Can someone point me to an easy tutorial on how to install OwnCloud on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (not server)? [21:56] do you like systemd? [21:57] BTJustice: http://doc.owncloud.org/server/7.0/admin_manual/installation/index.html [21:58] k1mmyyy_: hmm [21:58] k1mmyyy_: do you get a command prompt [21:58] EriC^^: yeah, i can get one from that screen with the choices, inside the recovery place in windows [21:59] k1mmyyy_: ok try chkdsk maybe [21:59] k1mmyyy_: chkdsk /f [22:00] Hello [22:00] hi [22:00] I can not reduce the brightness, Im new in ubuntu [22:00] k1mmyyy_: is there an advanced boot options menu too btw? start with last known good configuration or something? [22:00] sebastian: settings > brightness [22:01] sebastian: if you're using a laptop there should be a button [22:01] EriC^^: chkdsk gave me a bunch of stuff, what should i be looking for? [22:01] k1mmyyy_: what'd it say? [22:02] bekks: chkdsk /f said "the type of the file system is NTFS. cannot lock current drive. windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected" [22:02] it'll then ask you if you want to do a disk check at reboot [22:02] k1mmyyy_: Thats a good point for asking in ##windows now :) [22:02] bekks: okay, i'll try there, i don't remember having much luck last time i tried though [22:02] but i guess this is a windows issue now... [22:03] i'll come back when i need to fix my grub so i can get into my ubuntu partition again [22:03] ok i waited. and it's still not working. [22:03] k1mmyyy_: you need to boot windows media now, you can chkdsk from the installer - shift-F10 for a command prompt window i think it is [22:03] k1mmyyy_: is there the advanced options menu? [22:03] Ok eric thanks. [22:03] daftykins: sorry, the windows installer you mean? part of the problem is that i don't have any windows install disks, it came preinstalled [22:04] EriC^^: hmm, I'm not sure, i don't see one [22:04] k1mmyyy_: oh right, one moment [22:05] EriC^^: chkdsk said "the type of the file system in NTFS. the volume is in use by another process. chkdsk might report errors when no corruption is present. volume label is Boot." [22:05] k1mmyyy_: see my PM [22:05] I'm using pastebinit to paste my docs easily, anyone know how to extend this so that instead of writing cat file.txt | pastebinit, i can just call pb file.txt? [22:05] basichash: Just type: "pastebinit file.txt" [22:06] bekks: thanks === bob is now known as Guest85690 [22:12] How can I hide all the 'Started GET /assets/[styles/js/etc]' logs from my server console?

I'm having trouble upgrading an old server. It's currently on 12.04, and I want to get it up to at least 14.04 if not 14.10. However, apt-get update gives me a bunch of 404s for the second half of the servers it's connecting to, and do-release-upgrade tells me it can't update the tool signature (also a 404). [23:02] I know my version is old, but shouldn't the existing upgrade tools still be available? [23:02] Crell: can you pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get update" please. [23:02] Crell: copy the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the page it creates here [23:02] The system does have Internet connectivity; I already verified that. [23:02] Crell: (full output please) [23:02] or what ikonia said, either works [23:02] Stand y. [23:04] Crell: Might also check what is set -> cat /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades <- . [23:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/9591989/ - First part is update output, second part is my sources.list. [23:04] why don't we find out what's 404'ing first [23:05] mixed releases [23:05] lucid + quantal [23:05] Bashing-om: It's set to prompt=normal. [23:05] (The system has been offline for quite some time.) [23:05] Crell: have you manually changed the sources.list to include quantal, or have you maually addid the lucid component? [23:05] Crell: how did both distros end up in htere [23:05] there [23:06] Um. It's been long enough since I was working on this box that I'm not 100% sure. [23:06] looks like this has come from edgy too [23:06] It's been through a number of version upgrades. [23:06] At least 2-3. [23:06] from that alone I personally wouldn't trust it's state [23:07] I thought ubuntu was supposed to be able to handle upgrading from one version to the next. [23:07] * Crell has his laptop scheduled for a 14.10 update later this week, hopefully. [23:07] Crell: you've got upgraded (which are fine) at the moment you've got 2 distro versions in your sources.list [23:07] Crell: this could mean the packages are mixed [23:08] Ah. [23:08] from that I wouldn't trust it to be stable - or a sane place to do an upgrade from [23:08] the 404's are from the distro that's gone EOL [23:08] How would I clean that up? [23:08] so the repos are gone [23:08] Crell: I would personally backup the data - and do a clean 14.04 install [23:08] Oh, I didn't realize the old ones were completely taken off line. [23:08] Hm. That could take a while. I'd have to find enough disk space to back it up to. :-) [23:08] Crell: even if they where active, 2 active distros = mess/problems [23:09] they're moved off the mirror network to old-releases.ubuntu.com. I'm with ikonia though, upgrading from a mixed system isn't supported for good reasons. [23:09] Oh, wait. The only lucid mentions are for Plex. [23:09] That's a 3rd party application. [23:09] which has dependencies [23:09] it's totally up to you, I wouldn't trust it [23:10] m. [23:10] hm. [23:10] Crell, really is that server up since hardy ? [23:10] I can see the use of a full wipe/rebuild periodically. I just don't relish doing that on this box. :-) [23:11] OerHeks: I don't recall when it was first installed, just that it's been around a long time. It's my home server that I've not used much in the last few years so didn't notice when it shut down at some point. :-) [23:12] Once upon a time it was my home email server, but I eventually moved that to a hosted mail service because... email, ugh. [23:13] /msg NickServ SETPASS lurch dxzqfxsgkouh rainbow [23:13] /msg NickServ identify rainbow [23:13] lol [23:13] lol [23:13] shit [23:13] time to change password, lurch [23:13] Oopsies. :-) [23:13] hahaha [23:13] At least we know he has a secure password approach. [23:13] https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#changepass [23:13] yea dictionary words ftw [23:14] At least I'm using diff names/pw's lol [23:14] hola [23:14] buenas noches [23:14] !es [23:14] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. [23:15] Ah, yes, 260 GB of data on this server to backup if I'm going to do a wipe. [23:15] * Crell does not look forward to this. [23:16] that's tiny. [23:16] All things are relative. It's the only system in the house with a 1 TB or larger disk. :-) [23:16] what what [23:16] * Crell ponders if it's time to just get a new server, given that the hardware is about 8 years old. [23:17] well if it's just a headless server, no reason to run anything too modern [23:17] Right. The current hardware servers just fine as a dumb file server, which is all I really use it for. [23:17] Gotta head out for a bit. BBL. [23:20] I've got a serious problem which may destroy my Ubuntu install. I was trying to install OwnCloud to set up sync'ing from other devices to my computer, but the directions and tutorials out there are terrible so I gave up and did 'sudo apt-get remove owncloud owncloud-client lamp-server^' and now I see a lot of apparently good apps are no longer needed... http://pastebin.com/3uSMmLYs [23:20] Can I save my Ubuntu install? [23:20] Has anyone got tips on making mouse movement in Ubuntu just like in Windows w/o mouse accel? [23:21] how do i play minecraft [23:21] BTJustice: looks ok [23:21] is it not working? [23:21] BTJustice: if nothing needs those, you can remove them [23:21] i havent been able to play since i upgraded to 15.04 [23:21] 15.04 isn't even out yet [23:22] ikonia: I use wine and the libs I have no idea. [23:22] !ubuntu+1 | pixelkat [23:22] pixelkat: Vivid Vervet is the codename for Ubuntu 15.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [23:22] if you upgraded to 15.04, it's your own fault and you should ask in #ubuntu+1 [23:22] BTJustice: I would remove them - and add back what you need: eg wine [23:22] BTJustice: unless you are using kde as your desktop looks like nothing that would cause any problems [23:23] i just want to play minecraft [23:23] pixelkat: install a stable ubuntu version then [23:23] I'm trying to find my wan address from the command line. curl ifconfig.me works well for eth0, but I can't get it to work for ppp0 which is the interface that I want to check. I've tried curl --interface ppp0 ifconfig.me but it just hangs.... I can ping -I ppp0 www.google.com [23:23] not a development one that may change/break [23:23] i dont know how to get it working on wine [23:23] you don't need wine [23:24] i know just java [23:24] right click the jar, open as executable [23:24] i did all that and it will load up but wont download anything from the servers [23:24] pixelkat: Thats not how java applications are started. [23:24] retries 10 times and gives me an error [23:25] pixelkat: java -jar filename.jar [23:25] ikonia: I guess it was a fluke or something. 'sudo apt-get purge' and sudo apt-get autoremove' show nothing. I saved a list of the programs which were listed and just tried installing them all and terminal now says they are the latest versions. [23:25] pixelkat: I sugguest first you get to a stable ubuntu release [23:25] pixelkat: 15.04 is a moving development release, it will cause you pain [23:25] well, it was working on 14.10 [23:25] pixelkat: moving to say 14.04 will get you a stable platform to play your game [23:25] pixelkat: you're not using 14.10 - you're using 15.04 which is unstable/development [23:25] but i want to try out 15.04 [23:25] get to a stable release first [23:25] this one is more fun [23:25] pixelkat: you want to try out a development release, yet you have no idea how to manage it [23:25] then here is not the place to ask [23:25] things breaking is awesome [23:26] Greetings. Who can help me out with a dual boot RAID1 install? [23:26] pixelkat: then fix them rather than complaining it's broken [23:26] if it's awesome - whats your problem [23:26] UpTil4Music: Just ask your question please. [23:26] lol [23:26] pixelkat: Install VirtualBox and create a LiveCD session. [23:27] I do that all the time with .iso files of other distros I might be insterested in. [23:27] on a side note [23:27] 15.04 is dreadfully slow [23:28] Running LiveCD now, shows 4 mirrors, each with sub(?) mirrors. 1st q - mirror or sub mirror? [23:28] maybe after i install the upgrades [23:28] pixelkat: This is the rong channel for 15.04 [23:28] WHAT [23:28] *qrong [23:28] -.- [23:28] heh [23:28] "wrong" [23:28] Hello. I'm having issues booting past Grub on my dual gpu laptop. After choosing boot option, no text or prompt is visible. I have tried to do a few video params but nothing works. I have a Intel HD on board and Nvidia 840m card. Anyone have ideas? [23:28] UpTil4Music: what OSs are you intending on dual-booting? [23:28] theres a song on the new royksopp album called rong [23:28] Flat4ForLife: version? tried nomodeset yes? [23:29] Win7 and 14.10 [23:29] UpTil4Music: Which raid controller is it? [23:29] UpTil4Music: what is providing the RAID setup? [23:29] Yes I've tried nomodeset. 14.10 [23:29] Intel Matrix 8.9.1.1002 [23:29] forget it im going back to solaris [23:29] UpTil4Music: Thats a software raid controller. [23:29] everything worked better there [23:30] no, no. forget that. im going back to DOS [23:31] at least i could play minecraft in DOS [23:31] UpTil4Music: install Windows how you want, boot an Ubuntu live session... then see what you see. [23:32] Intel Matrix is the devil! I did figure out how to set up RAID1 Mirroring on a Ubuntu install though. You need ot set up 1 main EXT4 partition and 1 sap partition in GParted using only the mapper drive (not the members). Format the main EXT4 partition, start the installer and select Do something else. Select the main partition on mapper and select to mount as / [23:32] Do not let it format. [23:32] Install Ubuntu reboot and enjoy. [23:33] BTJustice: "The Intel Matrix controller is a software raid controller." === jfive is now known as jonyfive [23:33] bekks: I know. [23:33] Installer shows 4 mirrors, 0-3. 0 has "sub" mirrors 1-3, mirrors 1-3 each have a single sub mirror with the same number as the mirror. I'm targeting 3, but which "3"? [23:33] my internet is slow [23:33] what do? [23:34] can i dual boot ubuntu and mac os x? [23:34] pixelkat: Do you have a genuine ubuntu-related support question? [23:34] UpTil4Music: Forget whatever you see there, you cant use it the way you want. Your controller isnt capable of hardware raid, so you have to disable all and every "raid" functionaility on it, and create a software raid. [23:34] yeah [23:34] when is 15.04 gonna be supported [23:35] and are they switching to gnome? [23:35] pixelkat: Once it's released. Until then, #ubuntu+1 is the channel for questions. [23:35] does it come with gnome 3.14 or 3.12? [23:35] pixelkat, there is support in #ubuntu+1 [23:35] and what happened to gnome 3.13? [23:35] Hi is there a way to reverse rm -r command? [23:35] pixelkat, wrong place to ask those questions. Please ask in #ubuntu+1 [23:36] UpTil4Music: Now let Intel create your RIAD set up in its BIOS then do the GParted directions I did earlier. This drove me crazy for several days but I was able to get it to work. [23:36] minyng: generally speaking, only through restoring backups. [23:36] BTJustice: Wrong advice. Do NOT use te raid functionality. [23:36] bekks: I have a Dell desktop in another room that says otherwise. [23:37] no on is there [23:37] one* [23:37] minyng: No easy way . see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery . [23:37] BTJustice: Your gparted directions include destroying the formerly created raid setup, so it is not necessary. [23:37] pixelkat: then you can talk about it in #ubuntu-offtopic . but not here. [23:37] pixelkat: Just be patient. Vivid questions are completely off topic for this channel, please stop asking them. Thanks. [23:37] Anyone have ideas on my booting issue? [23:38] yes [23:38] whats the problem? [23:38] Bashing-om, Thanks I'll look through it. My crazy bf deleted my entire home directory [23:38] sucks [23:39] Read above, I posted it earlier during your "I'm going back to dos" rant [23:39] hey minyng [23:39] want a new non crazy bf? [23:39] do you play minecraft? [23:40] pixelkat, lol, still trying to figure out to recover my precious data [23:40] what happened [23:40] minyng: Unserstand, makes keeping a 'backup' to the point in the furure . Never can tell what might happen . [23:40] fair enough minyng [23:40] theres a windows program called "recuva" [23:40] pixelkat: Please stop being off topic. This channel is for technical support. Please don't chit chat, or ask about future versions of ubuntu, or anything else that's offtopic. Thanks. [23:40] maybe that will work [23:41] oh [23:41] minyng: for starters, make sure the disk doesn't get touched anymore. Keeping it in use diminishes your chances of recovering data. [23:41] Bashing-om, yeah huge life lesson learned [23:41] i accidentally deleted all my photos [23:41] how do i get them back [23:41] i formatted my sd card with fedora 21 on it [23:41] !info testdisk | pixelkat [23:41] but thats all ive done [23:41] pixelkat: testdisk (source: testdisk): Partition scanner and disk recovery tool, and PhotoRec file recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.14-3 (utopic), package size 314 kB, installed size 1269 kB [23:42] pixelkat: install testdisk and try sudo photorec [23:42] sweet thanks [23:42] BTJustice: Where are these instructions of which you speak? [23:42] sudo apt-get install testdisk? [23:42] pixelkat: yes [23:42] UpTil4Music: Disable all raid features, remove all volumes you created, and use the disks as single disks. === cobracommand is now known as pchote|afk [23:43] pixelkat: it's in the universe repository [23:43] bekks: not an option [23:43] UpTil4Music: Thats your only option. === pchote|afk is now known as cobracommand [23:43] UpTil4Music: You dont have a hardware raid controller. [23:45] UpTil4Music: I PM'ed you. === cobracommand is now known as Ripley`Whaling|a [23:45] where are extra drives mounted in hadoop? /mnt? /mount? === Ripley`Whaling|a is now known as Ripley|afk [23:45] Bleakwise: pardon? [23:45] erp, sorry, in ubuntu === Ripley|afk is now known as cobracommand [23:45] Bleakwise: depends on how you mounted them [23:45] bekks: There's instructions for 10.4 (kind of), haven't things improved for 14.10? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [23:45] Bleakwise: look at /media [23:46] Bleakwise: yeah ^^ [23:46] Bleakwise: running 'mount' in a terminal will tell you. [23:46] UpTil4Music: that fakeraid instructions tell you exactly what I told you already. [23:49] bekks: for the sake of discussion, let's say I'm going ahead with the installation. Where would you put the boot loader? With Win7, or Ubuntu? [23:50] actually what i was doing was installing ubuntu, didn't have a system handy, and i wanted to have a 2nd hard-drive under mouth, but anyway, i just looked up the FHS and going to go with that, /mnt [23:50] under mount* [23:50] UpTil4Music: I'd just follow the "normal" dualboot instructions. [23:50] some distros abandon the standard and go with /mount so i wasn't sure [23:53] please how can i install a .taz.gz app? [23:53] UpTil4Music: http://productive.me/blog/installing-ubuntu-64-bit-on-intel-raid-0-configuration [23:53] ouss: You unpack it, and follow the installation instructions contained. [23:54] Bleakwise: /media is usually where the per-user automounted volumes go (GNOME/KDE automounting of optical media/usb sticks), /mnt serves as a convenience root to create mountpoints shared by all users in. [23:54] UpTil4Music: I just did those directions on the RAID1 instead of RAID0. [23:54] Bleakwise: I might be wrong though. [23:54] UpTil4Music: Skip installing kpartx. [23:55] ouss: what software do you want to install? [23:55] MasterOfDisaster: makes sense, glad i went with /mnt then, because this is system wide not just user drive, it's going to be an HDFS volume [23:55] UpTil4Music: And use EXT4. [23:56] UpTil4Music are you using ubuntu for music productoin? [23:56] bekks: thanks, I did but still not working [23:56] ouss: looking "make make install" [23:56] ouss: So did you follow the installation instructions contained in the archive? [23:57] usually that's how it goes, but there are other ways [23:58] if you can you should make a package out of the sources and install hte package instead of just make installing it, so that way it can be easily removed later [23:58] ouss: unless you share more about the software, it's almost impossible to help you. [23:59] yes i did but something goes always wrong [23:59] Bleakwise: *if* it's a source package... [23:59] indeed [23:59] i just have to assume because not much else to go on [23:59] ouss: So what exactly are you doing, which error do you get and even more important - which software are you trying to install?
