| wafflej0ck | modelengine, np you can try lsusb to see connected USB devices too but like you said sounds like the system thinks it's all good too... not sure what else to check about the spooling | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| modelengine | wafflej0ck, cpika: should i try to install it via the cups? | 00:00 |
| wafflej0ck | modelengine, really recently I've just gone with the proprietary drivers for the printers cause then it installs the scanning capabilities too and SimpleScan does a nice job... simply scanning. But if cpika can guide you on CUPS or has alternatives you may want to try that first to avoid installing binaries with no possibility of getting source. | 00:01 |
| modelengine | wafflej0ck: cool, thanks | 00:02 |
| modelengine | wafflej0ck: cpika: I did try installing it via cups first. do you think that may have messed something up? | 00:03 |
| cpika | modelengine: hm, how exactly did you try to set up the printer? the folder you downloaded should include an install script... | 00:03 |
| === Maras is now known as Marasgeon | ||
| modelengine | cpika: is that the .sh file? | 00:04 |
| cpika | modelengine: not sure what an incorrect cups setup can do. I would open a terminal and type: 'cd Downloads/uld' enter, and then 'sudo ./install.sh' | 00:05 |
| cpika | modelengine: of course, the printer should be plugged in and turned on | 00:05 |
| modelengine | cpika: ok just sec, oh, and yes it is plugged in and turned on :) | 00:05 |
| Marasgeon | Hey guys in opensubtitles.org the site opens and pops up a window for username and password (authentication required, The site says "Meh"), what's the matter? | 00:05 |
| squinty | Marasgeon: not really on topic for this channel but that doesn't happen here. maybe try clearing your browers cache | 00:07 |
| Marasgeon | squinty: thanks a lot, I'll chech it | 00:08 |
| modelengine | cpika: so after that it says this: http://imgur.com/7Wx33jM what option should i choose? | 00:08 |
| Ace2Race | hi can anyone teach me how to use aircrack | 00:09 |
| squinty | Ace2Race: not a topic for this channel | 00:09 |
| Ace2Race | ok | 00:09 |
| wafflej0ck | modelengine, since it's USB not network connected just do n, enter | 00:09 |
| k1l | Ace2Race: not in this channel. if you need to use it you can take the time to read the manual. we are not helping here to hack the neighbours wifi | 00:09 |
| Ace2Race | i understand | 00:10 |
| modelengine | wafflej0ck: alrighty, it installed successfully. what would be my next step (sorry, I'm a real noob here) | 00:11 |
| cpika | modelengine: try to print something | 00:11 |
| wafflej0ck | modelengine, no worries just go try and print something is the easiest way | 00:11 |
| cpika | modelengine: perhaps you will see the same printer several times (from the previous setup and from the new setup...) - try to choose the new one. | 00:11 |
| Marasgeon | squinty: It worked, thank you very much, have a good night! | 00:12 |
| squinty | Marasgeon: good to hear. :) | 00:12 |
| modelengine | wafflej0ck: cpika: cool alright just sec | 00:14 |
| cpika | wafflej0ck: would you generally prefer open-source drivers for printers, these days? | 00:15 |
| Ace2Race | i need direct3d driver... but how do i get it | 00:16 |
| modelengine | cpika: wafflej0ck: and to think you guys don't even get paid for this! Thank you soooooo much!!! | 00:16 |
| modelengine | It worked!!! | 00:16 |
| wafflej0ck | cpika, eh I just prefer open source if it's available and works, for the sake of being able to debug and just the better ethos | 00:16 |
| wafflej0ck | modelengine, awesome glad to hear it | 00:16 |
| wafflej0ck | cpika, but for printers specifically MFP stuff with scanners seems the proprietary stuff works well | 00:17 |
| modelengine | wafflej0ck: cpika: I really appreciate the hour long free tech support you gave me. If I tried to call someone, I would be into it for over a hundred bucks right now! | 00:18 |
| cpika | wafflej0ck: okay. and if they work, I find the open-source drivers more reliable, in general. and no problems with updates. | 00:18 |
| cpika | modelengine: glad your problem is solved. have fun with your printer. | 00:18 |
| modelengine | thanks both of you :) | 00:18 |
| wafflej0ck | modelengine, don't remind me I charge $100 an hour... :) really though no worries, you weren't being crazy and didn't take much time to solve, glad you're up and running | 00:19 |
| modelengine | much appreciated | 00:19 |
| c3m0 | just a q i'm trying to setup cryptkeeper bu can't find system tools. i'm fairly new to linux in general | 00:22 |
| azib | hi | 00:22 |
| wafflej0ck | cpika, yeah for straight printing it's fine most of the time (apparently some problem in this specific case) and hplip is open source and typically works well and it looks like canon has GPL drivers too just no support offered http://www.usa.canon.com/nw3s/CanonUSA/DownloadContents/English/0100344001EN.htm | 00:22 |
| wafflej0ck | cpika, I dunno about the Samsung ones though as I haven't had one of my own for a few years (had a cheap black and white laser one at some point but before I used Ubuntu daily) | 00:23 |
| dunno | http://www.trafficswarm.com/url.pl?method=preview&urlid=2304862 | 00:25 |
| c3m0 | If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. | 00:27 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, you have regular Ubuntu installed? | 00:27 |
| c3m0 | yep ubuntu 14.04.x | 00:28 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, if so just hit winkey and type system and you should see matches you can also try settings that might be what you're after... I'm in Ubuntu Gnome edition so it's slightly different for the "control panel/settings" in here | 00:29 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, the winkey in Ubuntu opens the dash (button the the top left and searches across all your apps (and other stuff) | 00:29 |
| wafflej0ck | ) | 00:29 |
| wafflej0ck | I use too many parenthesis sorry bad habit from programming | 00:30 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, did you install it and just trying to configure it or? | 00:31 |
| c3m0 | I already installed it via apt-get just need to configure | 00:32 |
| c3m0 | I need it to "attach" itself to top pannel basically | 00:32 |
| c3m0 | *panel | 00:32 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, not sure as I haven't used it but in the comments someone says, gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']" | 00:33 |
| wafflej0ck | they say if you run that in the command line it'll show up in the panel | 00:33 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, just installed it since it looks interesting and it shows up in the Gnome tray here but yeah looks like that command should fix it in Unity | 00:34 |
| c3m0 | No such schema 'com.canonical.Unity.Panel' welp | 00:34 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, hmm yeah that was for 12.04 actually... I wonder if you use dconf-editor or gconf-editor if you could find the appropriate setting but really not sure | 00:35 |
| UnnamedUser9961 | Had a quick question about networking. I'm trying to share some folders from my trusty Ubuntu machine. I have it partially working. I can see windows shares in Ubuntu, but I can only see the ubuntu machine in windows - the shares are not showing up. Any one think this could be a SMB version issue? | 00:36 |
| c3m0 | meh ... maybe i'll install ubuntu gnome have you used both reg ubuntu and gnome ? how do they compare ? | 00:37 |
| === Yukinotteru is now known as Yukitteru | ||
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, yeah I used Ubuntu from like 10.04 on pretty regularly and was using Unity till 12.04 (20-year.month) then I decided to try out KDE cause it was looking interesting and Unity changed some things I didn't like, KDE was cool but did take quite a bit in terms of resources, and was infinitely tweakable but I lost time tweaking it and messing with things, Gnome is clean and simple and more out of the way I'm really loving it bu | 00:39 |
| wafflej0ck | t check out some vids first | 00:39 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, you can actually just install gnome-desktop to try it out too | 00:40 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, but if you like it I would clean install to get rid of the Unity stuff since I'm on SSD and space matters, plus just like things more "pure" | 00:40 |
| === joey is now known as Guest48251 | ||
| wafflej0ck | so yeah now 14.04 Ubuntu Gnome edition | 00:40 |
| Guest48251 | Just want to report success with Acer C720 (Just installed 14.04 LTS, works great!) | 00:41 |
| Guest48251 | SO far, so good. | 00:41 |
| Bashing-om | !yay | Guest48251 | 00:41 |
| ubottu | Guest48251: Glad you made it! :-) | 00:41 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, just took a snapshot of my desktop http://imgur.com/embntT6 | 00:41 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, I have docky and conky running too for the panel and the widgets | 00:42 |
| c3m0 | I'm actually using vmware to use linux because there's something funky going on between linux and my g1 sniper5 mobo | 00:42 |
| c3m0 | that does look rather nice ... | 00:43 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, yeah winkey still gives you a quick search like the dash too | 00:43 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: So what is the funky stuff? | 00:44 |
| c3m0 | I read a while back that gigabytes dual bios thing was screwing with ubuntu installs | 00:45 |
| === panda is now known as Guest15111 | ||
| c3m0 | it's either that or my ram from an unknown manufacturer | 00:46 |
| c3m0 | but i highly doubt ram would have anything to do with an ubuntu install :p | 00:47 |
| squinty | UnnamedUser9961: might want to try system-config-samba (available via repo's) | 00:47 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, yeah agree I imagine chipsets on the board are all Ubuntu is talking to at the lowest level | 00:47 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: RAM is either good or bad or partially bad. But it can get in the way of an OS install if it is partially bad. | 00:47 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, not sure about the gigabyte dual bios issue though | 00:47 |
| c3m0 | oh crap ... i've been using 2x4GB sticks from two different manufacturers one of which i have no idea who made them | 00:48 |
| wafflej0ck | yeah you can run a memtest to figure out if it's RAM pretty easily though, lots of boot CDs will do it or in Grub pretty sure you can usually kick it off there too, but if the main system doesn't have a problem like random crashes it seems unlikely still | 00:49 |
| c3m0 | i mean 2x4GB x2 btw so 16GB total | 00:49 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: About ram tests: Plan to let it run for many hours. (Sometimes the defect(s) will show in the first few minutes, sometimes not so soon.) | 00:50 |
| wafflej0ck | yeah takes time | 00:50 |
| c3m0 | i will do that | 00:50 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: I usually do ram test at night, (while I sleep). | 00:51 |
| Guest48251 | or when at work. | 00:51 |
| c3m0 | brb gonna wipe this VM and try out ubuntu gnome :D | 00:52 |
| Jabo | ubuntu gnome is all i use | 00:53 |
| wafflej0ck | yeah aside from Nautilus dropping the split pane view I have very few complaints and that's a small one | 00:54 |
| c3m0 | I like ubuntu because when i used it in the past it was really hard to learn and the troubleshouting was unreal so it really thought me a lot | 00:54 |
| c3m0 | and then i started using windows again and i completely forgot | 00:55 |
| wafflej0ck | eh it's okay you'll forget Windows just as easily :P | 00:55 |
| Jabo | i don't like using windows now | 00:55 |
| Jabo | i don't like how it *feels* | 00:55 |
| c3m0 | meh i can work with both | 00:56 |
| wafflej0ck | I just installed some windows VMs using this ievms script for the sake of testing sites in IE and yeah it all came back to me but it does feel horrible now (granted these were XP images for some of them) | 00:56 |
| c3m0 | for some reason i hate the command line on windows though ... | 00:56 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: Yea, no need to forget anything :) | 00:56 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, it's terrible that's why :) | 00:56 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, if they fixed the CLI to be POSIX compliant and had a package manager (which I think is coming in 10) I'd consider it again | 00:57 |
| Guest48251 | c3m0: Yea, I suppose cli on MS Windows feels a bit confining or limited after being exposed to ours | 00:57 |
| c3m0 | i think the furthest i got in windows cmd was "ipconfig" :D | 00:57 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, the power shell and VBS scripts let you do a lot but they're still a nightmare | 00:57 |
| === nisscrooge is now known as nisstyre | ||
| wafflej0ck | as a web dev it's so much easier to find shell scripts that do what I need to get done, and so much great open source (and many times free) software really | 00:58 |
| c3m0 | alrighty gnome's almost installed | 01:00 |
| wafflej0ck | I did Windows IT work and networking for years but got a BS in CS and do web development, much of the programming community is on OS X or Linux so really you're more on your own in Windows... Visual Studio is has been and is a pretty nice tool but they're playing catch up on the JS/Web Dev side for sure, a terminal and commands to make it POSIX compliant and a shell so you could run the same .sh files in Windows too would make i | 01:00 |
| wafflej0ck | t more viable to me | 01:00 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, cool | 01:01 |

| kuchikuu | I have a fast question and I can't find the answer anywhere. Can Irssi list all the channels on the server? | 01:01 |
| k1l | kuchikuu: no, use alis | 01:01 |
| k1l | !alis | kuchikuu | 01:02 |

| kuchikuu | what if I'm connecting to an unknown server | 01:02 |
| kuchikuu | and I would like to see the channel list | 01:02 |
| k1l | yes, it can list them but on big servers it will most likely crash the client | 01:03 |
| kuchikuu | oki | 01:04 |
| kuchikuu | Thank you~! | 01:04 |
| c3m0 | oh crap i forgot that installing vmware on a non os drive still still stores the actual data for the vms under documents | 01:04 |
| wafflej0ck | c3m0, heh, sorry don't know VMWare, I use VirtualBox you can just move the files with VirtualBox and update the VM settings to point to the new location for the HDD | 01:05 |

| c3m0 | so no idea how ... guess i'll go ask my lord and savior googol | 01:06 |
| teward | c3m0: i use VMware for my VM environment, are you using player or workstation | 01:07 |
| c3m0 | workstation | 01:07 |
| teward | c3m0: you can remove the VM from Workstation without removing the files on disk | 01:07 |
| teward | then "File">"Open" and navigate to wherever you moved the data to | 01:07 |
| c3m0 | tnx teward i'm gonna do that right now | 01:10 |

| Edler | Hey guys | 01:17 |
| kuchikuu | yo | 01:17 |
| Edler | i need someone to help me with a very small bash script! | 01:17 |
| kuchikuu | I'm a noob but maybe you can say what's going on and someone will answer:P | 01:17 |
| Edler | you see, i want to always call the curl command with a --interface eth0:1 argument | 01:17 |
| Edler | so my idea is to rename curl to curl-real | 01:18 |
| kuchikuu | ~/bin | 01:18 |
| kuchikuu | nano curl-real | 01:18 |
| Edler | then create a bash script called curl, that would call the real curl and append that argument to the existing ones | 01:18 |
| kuchikuu | write curl --interface eth:1 $1 | 01:18 |
| kuchikuu | then chmod +x curl-real | 01:18 |
| Edler | $1 does the trick ? | 01:18 |
| Edler | writes all arguments ? | 01:18 |
| gr33n7007h | Edler, alias it? | 01:18 |
| kuchikuu | of course if you allowed the bash shell to gain access to your ~/bin | 01:19 |
| Edler | alright let me try it out! | 01:19 |
| kuchikuu | All would be $@ | 01:19 |
| EriC^^ | Edler: just alias it | 01:19 |
| EriC^^ | alias curl0='curl --interface eth0:1' | 01:20 |
| === MichaelC1 is now known as MichaelC|Server | ||
| EriC^^ | then curl0 <arguments here> | 01:20 |
| Edler | alright that worked | 01:20 |
| kuchikuu | that's a nice idea XD surely easier than "my" way | 01:21 |
| kuchikuu | what worked, alias or ~/bin ? | 01:21 |
| Edler | but that didn't solve my real problem | 01:21 |
| Edler | i moved curl to curl-real | 01:21 |
| Edler | and wrote a script caleld curl | 01:21 |
| Edler | this worked | 01:21 |
| Edler | however my php5-curl is still failing | 01:21 |
| Edler | doesn't php5-curl simply call curl? | 01:22 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, you can check the source | 01:22 |
| kuchikuu | probably it calls curl, but not the curl-real | 01:22 |
| Edler | yup but it's not | 01:23 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, looks like it uses libcurl so maybe doesn't call the system command just uses the library | 01:23 |
| Edler | i see | 01:23 |
| Edler | so that's the problem | 01:23 |
| === bonhoeffer_ is now known as bonhoeffer | ||

| allmountainpro | any advice on dual booting linux beside windows? | 01:37 |
| sector_0 | allmountainpro, what kind of advice do you need? | 01:37 |
| jeffrey_f | allmountainpro: what is your desired outcome. Please explain what os's, etc | 01:38 |
| squinty | allmountainpro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI see if anything applicable for your system | 01:38 |
| allmountainpro | sector_0: how to do it from live cd without breaking windows | 01:38 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: do what? | 01:38 |
| sector_0 | allmountainpro, well it's actually not that hard | 01:39 |
| sector_0 | when you install from a liveCD you'll be given the option to install alongside the existing OS | 01:39 |
| sector_0 | which in this case would be windows | 01:39 |
| allmountainpro | sector_0: i want to install it on wifeys laptop as she has better hardware for coding, testing etc | 01:39 |
| jeffrey_f | allmountainpro: BUT, just in case, make sure you have a backup of your data. | 01:41 |
| sector_0 | allmountainpro, like I said after you run the installation program, you'll be given an option to install alongside the existing windows OS | 01:41 |
| sector_0 | after that, it's just a matter of setting up a couple thing (username, location etc) | 01:41 |
| sector_0 | but mostly the installation script takes care of everything | 01:41 |
| sector_0 | you don't really have to do/know much | 01:42 |
| runbum | I was formatting an external hard drive in ubuntu 14.10, when the process was interrupted. Now I can't get my drive to mount. It's a new drive, so there is no data I need to recover. I just need to know if there is any way to get it to mount. | 01:43 |
| daftykins | nuke it? | 01:43 |
| daftykins | why mount what isn't working? | 01:44 |
| runbum | I accidentally cancelled the formatting process. | 01:44 |
| squinty | allmountainpro: some rascals seem to experience problems when toggling on the "download updates and priority software" during the installation. might want to enable those after installation has finished. | 01:44 |
| daftykins | runbum: so do it again...? | 01:44 |
| jeffrey_f | runbum: System Tools>>Preferences>>disks. Remove the partition and reinstate it and try again | 01:45 |
| runbum | It won't mount. | 01:45 |
| jeffrey_f | runbum: make sure you have the right disk | 01:45 |
| daftykins | runbum: mounting is the process of gaining access to a file system, you didn't format, therefore you cannot mount. i think you're using the wrong term. | 01:45 |
| runbum | OK, thanks. I'm kind of new to this. | 01:45 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, yeah I second everything sector_0 said and would emphasize make a full backup before you make major changes like this | 01:45 |
| Edler | hey guys | 01:46 |
| Edler | need help with something else now | 01:46 |
| Edler | http://pastebin.com/mFE3C96s | 01:46 |
| Edler | here's my network interfaces | 01:46 |
| Edler | when i use curl it uses eth0 by default | 01:46 |
| Edler | what should i do so that the eth0:1 becomes the default one | 01:46 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, if you have a large enough extra drive you can use clonezilla to duplicate the disk to image files that can be restored with the same clonezilla boot CD | 01:46 |
| Edler | or that the eth0:1 information/ip become the eth0 | 01:46 |
| Edler | what would the new configuration be ? | 01:47 |
| Edler | can i just change auto eth0 eth0:1 to auto eth0:1 eth0 ? | 01:47 |
| sector_0 | allmountainpro, also after the installation, after the POST screen you'd be prompted to select which OS to load | 01:49 |
| sector_0 | and that's about it | 01:49 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, no you'd want to change the iface lines since those are defining the IPs to be used for the different interfaces, don't believe the auto line will matter... | 01:49 |
| Edler | so in the iface lines i just swap the word eth0 with eth0:1 and vice versa ? | 01:50 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, yeah believe that would do it, you may need to ifdown and ifup the interface or restart though not entirely sure how to have it reload the file, auto just tells it to fire up those interfaces when ifup -a is run | 01:52 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man5/interfaces.5.html | 01:52 |
| wafflej0ck | Edler, also hope this is a machine you can login to locally cause otherwise fiddling with the network config is risky business | 01:53 |
| runbum | Hi again. I went to the disk utility, and it says my external hard drive is all unallocated space. There are no partitions, it seems. So how can I format it? | 01:53 |
| daftykins | runbum: make a partition. use gparted. | 01:54 |
| allmountainpro | sector_0: thanks a bunch | 01:54 |
| runbum | ok. Does it matter where I place the partition? | 01:55 |
| Guest48251 | runbum: What type of partition(s) do you want to use? And what filesystem do you want to use? | 01:55 |
| daftykins | runbum: what are you trying to do? why not just one from the start to the finish? | 01:55 |
| wafflej0ck | runbum, in the disks interface you should be able to add a new partition, then you should be able to select format... like daftykins says gparted is the trusty older one, once you have a partition made and format the partition with some filesystem then you can mount it | 01:55 |
| Edler | i swapped my eth0 and eth0:1 interfaces | 01:56 |
| Edler | but curl magically switched as well! | 01:56 |
| allmountainpro | sector_0: do you by chance know how to make my external hdd a working linux box? not a live session but a full versionn that will boot when i plug it in and change the bios to boot off external hdd | 01:56 |
| Edler | it's using eth0:1 by default | 01:56 |
| Edler | why? how odes curl decide which interface to choose by default ? | 01:56 |
| runbum | I want to use eft4. That is why I was formatting. To change from ntfs. | 01:56 |
| Guest48251 | runbum: (If it is unallocated space, you'll first create partition(s), and them format them.) | 01:56 |
| gr33n7007h | !info cfdisk | 01:56 |
| daftykins | *ext4 | 01:56 |
| ubottu | Package cfdisk does not exist in utopic | 01:56 |
| gr33n7007h | !info cfdisk | 01:56 |
| daftykins | gr33n7007h: do that in PM when you're not sure :) | 01:57 |
| sector_0 | allmountainpro, never did it, but it should be too hard | 01:57 |
| gr33n7007h | daftykins, ok :) | 01:57 |
| runbum | OK. Like I said, I'm new to this. I only want one partition. | 01:57 |
| sector_0 | if you boot from the liveCD with the external HDD plugged in, does it show up as a drive? | 01:57 |
| daftykins | runbum: so what do you mean asking 'where' to put it? | 01:57 |
| daftykins | help us out here. | 01:58 |
| Guest48251 | runbum: So if it is an external HD, (and you're not in need of non-destructive partitioning, just use fdisk or cfdisk to create a partition). I prefer fdisk | 01:58 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, I sort of did this to setup an external USB drive (1TB) to run clonezilla to be able to backup/restore systems without even needing a CD but it took some fiddling | 01:58 |
| allmountainpro | sector_0: not too sure, let me try and ill get back on here and let you know from live session | 01:58 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: care to elaborate? | 01:59 |
| runbum | Thanks Guest 48251. I'll try that, and get back to you if there are any probs. | 01:59 |
| Guest48251 | runbum: fdisk /dev/sdf (where sdf is really the drive you are wanting to partition) sudo fdisk -l #To list drives and their respective partitions. | 01:59 |
| daftykins | i already said gparted. | 01:59 |
| daftykins | way to confuse the newbie ;) | 01:59 |
| squinty | yep | 02:00 |
| runbum | thanks | 02:00 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: id like mine to run linux | 02:00 |
| Guest48251 | runbum: If you want to use a GUI tool, use gparted as daftykins suggests. | 02:00 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, looks like there are some instructions here that basically say to just disable/disconnect the internal drive then do a regular install to the USB drive, but I personally did something to setup the USB drive to be formatted properly to boot (think it had to have some small partition aligned at the right sector for it to work) but perhaps these instructions work https://www.suse.com/communities/conversations/how-cr | 02:01 |
| wafflej0ck | eate-external-usb-bootable-linux-hard-drive-without-dual-boot/ | 02:01 |
| liberalPIGS | runbum: Yes | 02:01 |
| liberalPIGS | wafflej0ck: sure | 02:01 |
| runbum | I need to keep it simple, so I'll try the GUI option with gparted first. Thanks again. | 02:03 |
| liberalPIGS | allmountainpro: disconnect it first | 02:03 |
| allmountainpro | liberalPIGS: disconnect which? | 02:03 |

| belal122 | hi | 02:39 |
| runbum | I attempted to use gparted two times, to format my external HD, and it crashed my computer both times. I'm wondering if this is because I destroyed the original ntfs filesystem when I accidentally interrupted my initial attempt to format. | 02:39 |
| belal122 | run, but if you try to reformat it (not quick format) then that should fix it. | 02:40 |
| daftykins | runbum: nope, makes no sense. if you just tried, run "dmesg | tail" in a terminal and share it via http://paste.ubuntu.com | 02:40 |
| ablest1980 | how do i restore ubuntu without losing my apps and settings? | 02:42 |
| daftykins | find out a list of packages in edubuntu, remove them... reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 02:42 |
| runbum | OK. Thanks. | 02:42 |
| purnanand | Hi friends happy Xmas!! | 02:44 |
| jasonjckn | Bashing-om: i just tried installing nvidia current package instead and now it doesn't boot | 02:44 |
| daftykins | nvidia-current tends to put on nvidia-304 which is ancient | 02:45 |
| jasonjckn | what packgae do I use? | 02:45 |
| daftykins | jasonjckn: sudo apt-get purge nvidia* | 02:45 |
| daftykins | then try nvidia-331, depends on your card. | 02:45 |
| jasonjckn | can I get 343 anywhere? | 02:45 |
| daftykins | maybe via xorg edgers PPA, but we don't recommend PPAs | 02:46 |
| daftykins | don't fall into the youthful trap of thinking that updated drivers will make life hugely different, it's only if you have a very recent card you need updated | 02:46 |

| daftykins | not really surprised though ;) | 03:02 |
| wafflej0ck | mint, yeah so you may be able to disable it in your BIOS if not honestly removing the HDD may not be a bad plan, they're typically one of the easier components to remove assuming you don't have a mac or netbook it shouldn't be too bad if you can't disable it within the BIOS settings | 03:02 |
| Bashing-om | jasonjckn: Single hard drive, ubuntu installed to sda1; then my way -> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt , for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done , sudo chroot /mnt . check that networking works -> ping -c3 google.com . | 03:03 |

| wafflej0ck | mint, with dell's it's like 2 screws | 03:03 |
| wafflej0ck | mint, but would check out the manual | 03:03 |
| wafflej0ck | mint, perhaps the BIOS allows you to just disable the drive without any physical stuff | 03:04 |

Here is the line in fstab mounting the partition: http://pasteb | 03:12 |

| runbum | daftykins - Sorry, but was the second part of that command "sudo parted - 1" or did I misread? | 03:15 |
| teward | as fstab expects space-delimited arguments (but the options stuff needs to be all together in one blob without spaces) | 03:15 |

| EriC^^ | sorry without the | | 03:17 |
| revo | nothing happens | 03:17 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: you might be able to turn it off | 03:17 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: udisksctl --detach -b /dev/sdX | 03:18 |
| revo | this is the command i wrote grep Windows /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 03:18 |
| EriC^^ | revo: ok, i guess it was deleted then | 03:18 |
| revo | but no t received any reply from terminal | 03:18 |
| allmountainpro | EriC^^: what will that do | 03:18 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, detach the target device where /dev/sdX is the target device | 03:18 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, you'd have to do it in a live session before choosing to install | 03:19 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: it should turn it off | 03:19 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: if i do that on my ext hdd the light turns off and it disappears from sudo parted | 03:19 |
| allmountainpro | EriC^^: is that ubuntu specific code? and im trying to turn off the internal, not hdd | 03:19 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, just use, lsblk, to see what sdX should actually be | 03:20 |
| daftykins | "internal not HDD" ? wat | 03:20 |
| EriC^^ | hmm | 03:20 |
| allmountainpro | i want the external hdd to stay onn, internal off | 03:20 |
| revo | does any one know where can i download acer Revo Nettop RL80 rescue disk from ? | 03:20 |
| teward | allmountainpro: you can't turn the internal drive off if the OS is on the internal | 03:20 |
| daftykins | allmountainpro: so use the appropriate device identifier with the command EriC^^ showed you | 03:20 |
| EriC^^ | allmountainpro: sorry, udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX | 03:21 |
| revo | rekon if i can get my hands on one, then i would be able to fix my partition / boot/ os problem in one go | 03:21 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, yeah it's fine what you can do is boot to the live session, use lsblk to see what devices are there (without the USB one connected) connect the USB and do lsblk again and you should see a new entry, use the command from EriC^^ with the device name for the internal drive (the one that showed up on lsblk in both instances) | 03:21 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: makes sense, ill post link of whaat im doing so you guys can see and maybe steer me in right direction | 03:22 |
| purnanand | hello, hnumaan, pls give solution how to check the IP of system,? | 03:22 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, alternatively look up how to just remove the internal drive, on many machines it's an easy process, if you can find a youtube walkthrough with your model you can see if it's worth doing, this is usually a serviceable part so it's easy to remove | 03:22 |
| runbum | OK. I was able to execute the first part of the command, and the packages loaded up just fine, but when I typed in "sudo parted - l | pastebinit" the terminal came back with "Error: Could not stat device - - no such file or directory." Sorry for all the problems....pulling my hair out. | 03:23 |

| WillW_Laptop | Ok, I'm back and the partition has mounted properly, and I can now share a folder via nautilus without root permissions. But, the folder still appears as permission denied on the client PC. "Others" can create and delete files, and Guest access is on. | 03:25 |
| daftykins | purnanand: i wouldn't recommend you try and use that thing, you aren't even sure how to find out an IP of a system you're running so i don't think it's going to go well. | 03:26 |
| daftykins | WillW_Laptop: samba logs would be good next | 03:26 |
| WillW_Laptop | daftykins theres no log file in /var/ ... is there a place i can find the samba logs? | 03:27 |
| WillW_Laptop | oh whoops i think i misread something | 03:28 |
| purnanand | hey buddy pls tell me hoe to find out ip of a system it is my homework? | 03:29 |

It shows the filesystem for my internal drive as ext4, but the Seagate shows a filesystem of "extended". (?) There is another partition now - linux swap. | 03:44 |

| HikaruBG | I need to know where can I get some | 04:00 |
| daftykins | HikaruBG: so no, that's against this entire network. | 04:00 |
| daftykins | WillW: yeah that log didn't seem relevant. i reckon it's down to permissions, given you can't set permissions on NTFS, so unless it's a guest share you'll need to have fstab mount it accordingly | 04:01 |
| HikaruBG | daftykins, understood - I see I was mislead. Thanks | 04:03 |

| WillW_ | daftykins: adding group ID to fstab did not have any effect :( | 04:14 |
| daftykins | WillW_: answer has to be in the logs somewhere, unless your share definition in smb.conf is funny | 04:14 |
| runbum | http://imgur.com/gallery/uoYe7xK | 04:14 |

I just tar xzf'ed it into my home directory, pointed a soft link to the directory and put the path tot he binary directory in my path and it just worked. I was a little surprised - are the differences between different binary installs really more to do with different package managers than the compiled binaries? | 04:26 |
| dns53 | aeoril binaries expect the libraries in the same place and to be the same or similar versions. Most binaries statically link the libraries to get around this so it should work the same but then you don't receive updates on those libraries | 04:30 |

| gr33n7007h | runbum, is it mounted to the desktop? | 05:34 |
| runbum | That's the problem. It won't mount after the formatting issue. | 05:35 |
| runbum | I wonder if I might have more luck on a Windows machine, and could use chkdsk? | 05:36 |
| runbum | although it doesn't show any ntfs at this point | 05:37 |
| gr33n7007h | have your tried formatting with gparted? | 05:37 |
| skwishy | ubottu: I've used that a while ago, and I'm starting to think my bluetooth audio problem is more generic than just a macbook thing | 05:37 |
| ubottu | skwishy: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:37 |
| runbum | yes | 05:37 |
| runbum | crashed my system with it three times | 05:37 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: :) I've used that a while ago, and I'm starting to think my bluetooth audio problem is more generic than just a macbook thing | 05:38 |
| skwishy | the problem is that it pairs, then a few second later, it unpairs | 05:38 |
| skwishy | I'm kinda lost about bluetooth, I was hoping there would be more useful logs somewhere, but so far, I haven't found them | 05:39 |
| runbum | One problem might be that I (stupidly) used the "erase" long duration option of formatting. I don't know why, since there was nothing to erase, but could that be an issue? | 05:39 |
| gr33n7007h | runbum, I doubt it | 05:40 |
| runbum | good | 05:40 |
| runbum | The drive hardware seems ok. | 05:40 |
| gr33n7007h | use sudo gdisk /dev/sda | 05:40 |
| gr33n7007h | then use it like fdisk | 05:40 |
| runbum | same thing...rejected the command | 05:41 |
| runbum | What does the system mean by "you may need to edit /etc/fstab and/or your boot loader configuration!" ? | 05:42 |
| gr33n7007h | what about `sudo cgdisk /dev/sda` | 05:42 |
| skwishy | Using "hcitool scan" I can see the bt speaker listed, so that's good, right? | 05:42 |
| runbum | It came back with "You may need to edit......etc." | 05:43 |
| gr33n7007h | runbum, idk then, maybe try on your win machine | 05:45 |
| gr33n7007h | or wait till someone knows in here better? | 05:45 |
| runbum | Yeah. I'll have to go to a friends place for that. I don't often wish I had a Windows machine lying around. Thanks for the help. | 05:46 |
| gr33n7007h | ok :( | 05:46 |
| runbum | Maybe I'll just return it. :) Signing off. | 05:47 |

| lickalott | has anyone run vitrualdub? i've installed the gstreamer codecs but it still fails on an .avi claiming that it can't read xvid | 05:50 |
| dns53 | lickalott so you have bad and ugly codecs? | 05:51 |
| skwishy | Is there a way to inspect what tools that the gnome control panel settings actually uses? So I can figure out what it's trying to do with enabling bluetooth, and work with it "by hand" from bash? | 05:52 |
| lickalott | possibly dns53 | 05:53 |

| cfhowlett | Guest11258, spam? no. stop. | 05:59 |
| skwishy | Does the bluetooth settings make any logging entries? For example, when I enable or disable bluetooth from the gnome-settings, does this get logged somewhere? | 06:00 |
| Guest11258 | password | 06:00 |
| cfhowlett | skwishy, every linux event gets logged ... SOMEWHERE :) | 06:00 |
| cfhowlett | Guest11258, ask your ubuntu question | 06:00 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: yeah, but I'm surprised it's not syslog in this case | 06:00 |
| cfhowlett | skwishy, ls -ltr /var/log will show most recent log notations | 06:01 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: I tried that already :( | 06:01 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: hmm, not sure how I missed it, but it's actually logged in /var/log/syslog, so that's good! | 06:02 |
| cfhowlett | skwishy, :) | 06:02 |

| skwishy | I guess I need to configure dbus permissions for bluetooth? | 06:13 |
| shadaloo | what is the optimal way to start unity from tty1 | 06:17 |
| skwishy | after editing /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf, should the "dbus" service be restared? | 06:17 |
| lickalott | dns53, if anyone else asks. avidemux is the way to go. (suitable substitute for virtualdub, nandub) | 06:17 |
| shadaloo | i have tried unity --reset, unity --replace and setsid unity, all fail | 06:20 |
| shadaloo | why is unity so horrible | 06:20 |
| frecel | are the repos broken? I'm getting 1KB/s downloads from ppas and the official repos, I can connect to antyhing else just fine | 06:20 |
| cfhowlett | shadaloo, you can use ANY of the desktop environments in repo. choose a different one. | 06:20 |
| shadaloo | cfhowlett: no | 06:22 |
| shadaloo | cfhowlett: that is not what i want | 06:22 |
| shadaloo | after I switch to a different tty I want to be able to restart unity without having to rebbot | 06:23 |
| shadaloo | i dont want to use something 'depreciated', as unity describes 'unity --replace' | 06:23 |
| skwishy | When trying to pair my bluetooth speaker, the /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems to indicate it's trying to add it as a keyboard! | 06:23 |
| cfhowlett | skwishy, a "HID" human interface device? | 06:24 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: I guess so? here's the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633432/ | 06:25 |
| skwishy | that address is my speaker bluetooth address | 06:25 |
| cfhowlett | skwishy, there's probably a method to configure that to speaker ... | 06:25 |
| skwishy | cfhowlett: It's weird, the gnome settings"Bluetooth New Device Setup" finds my speaker, and shows it as a "Device type: Headphones, headeset and other audio devices" | 06:28 |
| shadaloo | well | 06:30 |
| knoppix246785 | lol | 06:30 |
| shadaloo | i figured out unity will not start by itself | 06:30 |

| linuxmint | Hello, anyone know a good RedHat or CentOS channel please? #rhel and #dro aren't joining. | 06:30 |
| shadaloo | and service lightdm restart | 06:31 |
| shadaloo | works | 06:31 |
| cfhowlett | linuxmint, ask ##linux | 06:31 |
| shadaloo | thanks for all the help #ubuntu | 06:31 |
| knoppix246785 | What is redhat? | 06:31 |
| shadaloo | (not rly) | 06:31 |
| linuxmint | cfhowlett: thanks. | 06:31 |
| basil1x | linuxmint, You might have to be a registered freenode user to join. Have you registered with nickserv? | 06:32 |
| cfhowlett | knoppix246785, it's not ubuntu so off-topic | 06:32 |
| knoppix246785 | Can you explain linux mint? | 06:32 |
| cfhowlett | !mint | knoppix246785, | 06:32 |
| ubottu | knoppix246785,: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 06:32 |
| linuxmint | basil1x: yes, all registered, but #linux says cannot send to channel on Freenode. I'll ask LinuxMint. | 06:33 |
| linuxmint | cfhowlett: hmm, seems #linux on freenode is broken. Error: cannot send to channel. | 06:38 |
| cfhowlett | linuxmint, ##linux note: ## | 06:39 |
| linuxmint | cfhowlett: I don't understand. I tried /join #linux and /join ##linux. | 06:39 |
| dns53 | linuxmint, i think you need to be identified with freenode before you can send a message | 06:40 |
| linuxmint | dns53: yes, I do have to log in. As it happens, I've logged in to freenode with the /NickServ bit to access this #ubuntu channel. | 06:40 |
| skwishy | In the gnome bluetooth settings, when you click the bluetooth "ON/OFF" slider, or the Connection "ON/OFF", is there a way to do the same thing via the command line? | 06:41 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, hciconfig hci0 down/up | 06:42 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: the hciconfig hci0 down worked, but up doesnt, any idea what this error means? | 06:44 |
| skwishy | root@mbp3:~# hciconfig hci0 up | 06:44 |
| skwishy | Can't init device hci0: Operation not possible due to RF-kill (132) | 06:44 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, sudo rfkill unblock all | 06:45 |
| gr33n7007h | or try with sudo | 06:45 |
| linuxmint | dns53: thanks for helping, but I've been told the rules are to ask first before sending a PM. Yes, your link http://www.linuxassist.net/how-to-connect/ is what I have done, but ##Linux still gives error: Cannot send to channel. | 06:45 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: cool, that seemed to work, thanks!! | 06:45 |
| gr33n7007h | :) | 06:46 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: any idea how to also establish an actual pairing connection via cli? | 06:46 |
| gr33n7007h | to what? | 06:47 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: to a headset/speaker | 06:47 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: maybe something like this? rfcomm connect hci0 50:56:BF:CF:3D:F2 | 06:48 |
| gr33n7007h | via cli would imagine "rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 <macaddr> <port>" | 06:48 |
| coolmadmax | linuxmint, you need to be registered to nickserv | 06:49 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, figure out what port to connect to first with sdptool | 06:49 |
| linuxmint | coolmadmax: yes, I am registered to NickServ, as that's the only way I can connect and chat to this #Ubuntu channel. | 06:49 |
| mihir | hello | 06:50 |
| dns53 | linuxmint you also need to message nickserv every time you connect /msg nickserv identify password | 06:50 |
| mihir | nickserv | 06:50 |
| linuxmint | dns53: really? I connect to other channels just by /join #channelName. | 06:51 |
| dns53 | you don't need to be registered for most channels, only some will not give you voice for that channel unless you are registered | 06:52 |
| linuxmint | dns53: hmm, I just tried in ##Linux field: /msg nickserv identify password <mypassword> | 06:52 |
| linuxmint | dns53: error: Invalid password for Password | 06:53 |
| gr33n7007h | linuxmint, remove password | 06:53 |
| gr33n7007h | password is supposed to be your password | 06:53 |
| coolmadmax | linuxmint, read ---> https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#registering | 06:53 |
| linuxmint | gr33n7007h: oh, I see, /msg nickserv identify <password> | 06:53 |
| gr33n7007h | yep :) | 06:54 |
| linuxmint | coolmadmax: yes, I know about the commands, but didn't know I had to log in again for ##linux. It worked now. | 06:55 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: using sdptool browse, how do you determine the bluetooth port to connect to with rfcomm? | 06:56 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, pastebin "sdptool browse <bdaddr>" | 06:57 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633498/ | 06:57 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, no rfcomm chans there? you won't be able to connect over rfcomm :( | 06:59 |
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: I obvioulsy know nearly nothing about bluetooth, but I wonder, could I be stuck in a "hci mode"? | 07:00 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, no | 07:01 |
| gr33n7007h | the speakers must connect using l2cap layer | 07:01 |
| === samfty_ is now known as samfty | ||
| skwishy | gr33n7007h: do you happen to have any ideas about why when I try to pair to this headset device, I get an X error about trying to add it as a keyboard input device? | 07:01 |
| skwishy | I just wonder if that's maybe a clue | 07:02 |
| gr33n7007h | skwishy, not a clue, but I thought bluetooth speaker/headset was over rfcomm but i may be wrong | 07:03 |

| wlxmhls | hello! xubuntu 14.10 turns blank after 10 min while watching flash video. how can i disable blank while playing it? | 07:28 |
| phunyguy | wlxmhls: a better option is to change the screen blanking behavior to a higher timeout.... not really sure there is another way. | 07:30 |
| phunyguy | wlxmhls: I think maybe there could be a power saving profile option to have it never blank the screen, that you can select while watching flash videos. As far as how to do that, I don't know. But this should give you a direction at leasr. | 07:32 |
| phunyguy | least*. | 07:32 |
| monst | I was curious if its possible to SSH in and interact with TTY1 ? | 07:33 |
| monst | so it is seen on the screen | 07:34 |
| jerrcs | monst: you could use something like screen or tmux to easily do that. | 07:34 |
| jerrcs | but the raw tty, not sure. | 07:34 |
| monst | i have a raspberry pi that boots up with a little screen to tty1, id like to be able to have the screen update via SSH | 07:35 |
| monst | without having to interact first with a keyboard/mouse | 07:36 |
| monst | screen would have to be have to be setup from tty1 first correct? | 07:36 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: you know anything about partitioning? | 07:39 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, a bit but typically just use GParted really | 07:40 |
| wlxmhls | phunyguy: it is better to detect audio/video working state: when audio/video is working, no blank screen. | 07:40 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: does gparted walk you through it? | 07:40 |
| jerrcs | monst: correct. it might not be what you are looking for honestly | 07:40 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, not really but it gives you all the stuff in a GUI to do it pretty easily and after you setup the changes you hit apply to commit them all at once when it looks good | 07:41 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: whatss a gui | 07:41 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, really though just need one partition for the system and a small partition for swap (equal to the size of your RAM ideally) | 07:41 |
| monst | jerrcs: maybe I can force tty1 into a screen a boot that I can connect to. | 07:41 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, GUI just means graphical user interface, just a windowed application not a terminal thing | 07:41 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: oh ok haha. i am balls deep into setting up 3 more distros. eyes are bleeding lol | 07:42 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, if you want to have a separate home partition too that can be useful so when you upgrade you leave the home partition with all your user data in it and just wipe out the OS partition, but personally haven't done that | 07:42 |
| cfhowlett_ | !home | allmountainpro, | 07:44 |
| ubottu | allmountainpro,: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 07:44 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, yeah so with GParted you get a visual diagram of the disk and can right click on partitions to delete them or format them or whatever and it just queues up all the stuff you tell it to do, then when you hit apply it actually runs all those operations to partition the disk and format partitions however you set it up | 07:44 |
| bobbybob | hey all | 07:45 |
| bobbybob | whats the LD tonite | 07:46 |
| allmountainpro | ubottu: do i have to move home partition? | 07:46 |
| ubottu | allmountainpro: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 07:46 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: do i have to make partitions in other format for linux distros or can i make the same? | 07:47 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, different distros will have different filesystem support to some degree but believe ext4 is pretty widely supported at this point | 07:48 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, there are some more advanced ones like btrfs and zfs that still have limited support | 07:48 |
| sup3rs4iyan | hello | 07:49 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: what would i search on ye olde google to find out for each distro? | 07:49 |
| sup3rs4iyan | idk whatever you want | 07:50 |
| cfhowlett_ | sup3rs4iyan, ask your ubuntu question | 07:50 |
| sup3rs4iyan | ok...so i might sound a tad nub but how do i get GNOME on this comp...i got the latest Ubuntu version | 07:52 |
| cfhowlett_ | !gnome | sup3rs4iyan | 07:52 |
| ubottu | sup3rs4iyan: GNOME was the default desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10. To install the GNOME Shell, type [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ] in a !terminal. For the GNOME-based !flavor of Ubuntu, see !ubuntu-gnome | 07:52 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, yup er check the distro documentation wikipedia has a list of defaults in here too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Linux_distributions but doesn't show all the supported ones, and support gets added over time so depends on the version | 07:52 |
| sup3rs4iyan | ok let me open another terminal and type it in | 07:53 |
| bobbybob | any good tor onion site to visit ? | 07:53 |
| cfhowlett_ | !ot | bobbybob, | 07:54 |
| ubottu | bobbybob,: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 07:54 |

| gr33n7007h | display a swimming fish across the desktop :) | 07:58 |
| cfhowlett_ | gr33n7007h, might have been gnome specific ... nothing here | 07:58 |

| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, typically you can just let the installer setup the partitions for you really unless you want to separately have a home partition, if you want that you should just use gparted from the live disk to setup the partitioning then during the setup you can choose to manually setup your partitions/mount points and assign the appropriate partitions for / /boot /home and your swap space | 08:31 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, if you don't care so much about keeping the /home separate though you can just let the installer do the partitioning for you | 08:32 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, it is easier to do partitioning in advance in general since it doesn't have to shift data around the disk it's all just empty space being setup with tables to keep track of the data that will eventually go into the partitions | 08:33 |
| allmountainpro | wafflej0ck: can i resize without losing data? | 08:35 |
| wafflej0ck | allmountainpro, I have experience doing it but it's not something I do for my desktop setups in most cases, usually I have a backup running for my home folder so when there are major upgrades I just backup with clonezilla then wipe it all out and restore the data I need from my regular backup, you can resize without losing data but it typically take a lot longer especially if you have to move a partition, and you need to do it a | 08:36 |
| wafflej0ck | ll from a live disk too so the partition isn't mounted (think zfs lets you modify things more fluidly without shutdown/reboot but haven't used it yet myself) | 08:36 |
| mladoux | I have a question about 15.04, is anyone testing it, and if so, is it on systemd, or is it still on upstart... I'm waiting for it to get a bit further along in development before I touch it, but I'm just curious. | 08:37 |
| mwsb | mladoux: Might be better to ask in #ubuntu+1 | 08:37 |
| mladoux | thanks, I will try there, not really a support question either way, but it helps to ask in the right place :) | 08:38 |
| janolap1 | hi there, I need help : I have 2 disks on my system. The first one /dev/sda is for dual boot (xp/ubuntu) with 2 patitions /dev/sda1 (boot and xp) and /dev/sda2 (extended for ubuntu). This morning, I wanted to format in Fat32 /dev/sdb1 and unfortunatly I have formatted /dev/sda1 in Fat32. I didn't reboot as I think I loose grub. What can I do ? | 08:39 |
| janolap1 | I am in Lubuntu, I have installed testdisk, but don't know what to do next... | 08:40 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, you can re-install grub if need be http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd | 08:41 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, could try the grub-repair program too if you prefer trying a GUI based thing instead/first | 08:42 |
| mladoux | I'm pretty sure grub would have installed on sda, however, if you want to be sure, you can run `sudo grub-install /dev/sda` minus the quotes, and it should set it up. | 08:42 |
| janolap1 | wafflej0ock , mladoux : I think so : grub should be on sda. Is there a mean to restore sda on it's initial state (to get my data back) ? The format operation was really short (1 second). The data must be there again... | 08:44 |
| mladoux | well, it's only written to the first 512 bytes of the disk, if I recall properly, for the stage one, and stage 2 is loaded from your boot partition of the OS it was installed from. | 08:45 |
| mladoux | so, it really doesn't take more than a second to install it | 08:46 |
| mladoux | the whole thing won't fit in a normal boot record, especially if you're using MBR, versus GPT. Not sure what the limitations on GPT are. | 08:46 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, typically it's just going to be rewriting the partition table or filesystem information unless you explicitly wipe the drive, there are data recovery solutions that will let you read back the files but they tend to just scan the entire drive and attempt to find data but not really good for recovering the entire system just for recovering really important data | 08:48 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/recovering.html <-- this may be helpful | 08:49 |
| mladoux | oh, I misread I think, did you accidently reformat sda1? | 08:51 |
| dts|pokeball | hey guys... so ive got an ubuntu 14.04 vps, and im trying to install libapache2-mod-fastcgi which according to this http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libapache2-mod-fastcgi should be in my repos, but its not (searched via apt-cache). can someone help? | 08:51 |
| mladoux | because, if so, way out of my league buddy | 08:51 |
| mladoux | did you run apt-get update? | 08:51 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/80270/unix-linux-undelete-recover-deleted-files <-- this is eluding more to the kind of data recovery stuff I mentioned above and there are services and programs (thining in windows) that will do data recovery for you but like I said that's just for data itself not fixing the partitions | 08:51 |
| dts|pokeball | mladoux, not specifically for this issue, but i have, yes. just a few minutes ago when adding a ppa | 08:52 |
| mladoux | okay, did you install a ppa for the package specifically? | 08:53 |
| mladoux | I know, these questions may sound stupid, I'm just trying to establish a baseline. | 08:54 |
| dts|pokeball | its ok | 08:54 |
| dts|pokeball | and no | 08:54 |
| dts|pokeball | i added the ppa for hhvm | 08:54 |
| dts|pokeball | but now i want to set it up to work with apache (which is already running) but to do that i need the lib in question | 08:54 |
| mladoux | dts|pokeball, did you make sure to enable the multiverse repository? | 08:55 |
| mladoux | because that's where that package is. | 08:55 |
| dts|pokeball | how would i do that? | 08:55 |
| dts|pokeball | sorry, i havent used ubuntu in a long time | 08:55 |
| mladoux | sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) multiverse" | 08:56 |
| mladoux | should do it | 08:56 |
| dts|pokeball | ty | 08:56 |
| mladoux | np | 08:56 |
| mladoux | lemme know if you run into any further issue. | 08:56 |
| dts|pokeball | sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found | 08:57 |
| dts|pokeball | and apt-add-repository isnt there either | 08:57 |
| dts|pokeball | do i need to install software-properties-common or something like that? | 08:57 |
| Ubnoobti | hi, I am using 12.04, and I am getting E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) any time I try to upgrade, remove or reinstall anything. | 08:58 |
| mladoux | oh, server edition, yeah, you need that. just a sec dts|pokeball I'll grab the correct command for you | 08:58 |
| dts|pokeball | mladoux, thanks a ton | 08:59 |
| mladoux | sudo apt-get install python-software-properties | 08:59 |
| mladoux | there ya go | 08:59 |
| dts|pokeball | i knew it was something like that | 08:59 |
| dts|pokeball | i would rather not say why i know that though | 08:59 |
| mladoux | dts|pokeball, I knew you were close, but I also knew you were wrong | 08:59 |
| mladoux | lol | 08:59 |
| mladoux | I know that stuff because I spend entirely too much time on the CLI | 09:00 |
| dts|pokeball | meh, i guess i can give you a good face palm | 09:00 |
| mladoux | lol, no worries | 09:00 |
| dts|pokeball | i was trying to install clang via source on mint | 09:00 |
| dts|pokeball | and it was a botched install | 09:00 |
| dts|pokeball | so i had to manually remove it | 09:00 |
| dts|pokeball | i accidently did rm -rf /usr/bin | 09:01 |
| xangua | reinstall ubuntu | 09:01 |
| mladoux | I don't even use ubuntu that often anymore, most of my machines are either arch, bsd, or RHEL/CentOS | 09:01 |
| dts|pokeball | i was using manjaro for the longest time | 09:01 |
| dts|pokeball | love it, just not stable enough | 09:01 |
| janolap1 | mladoux, wafflej0ck : ok, I have read the given pages. I accidently format /dev/sda1, containing grub and windows xp system. I'm trying to "unformat" it by using testdisk... if any advice... | 09:02 |
| mladoux | janolap1, yeah, sorry, I can't help with that, I'll only end up destroying your system further. | 09:03 |
| janolap1 | mladoux : :-) | 09:03 |
| mladoux | I know enough to know when I don't know what I'm talking about. | 09:03 |
| dts|pokeball | thansks mladoux worked like a charm | 09:04 |
| janolap1 | mladoux : great skill | 09:04 |
| mladoux | dts|pokeball, of course it did, it was the correct way to do it. | 09:05 |
| mladoux | you're welcome | 09:05 |
| mladoux | lol | 09:05 |
| janolap1 | Anyone else to help me in an accidentual format of my grub/boot/xp partition ? | 09:06 |
| Ubnoobti | hey all | 09:08 |
| Ubnoobti | Anyone give me some advice on what to do? | 09:09 |
| xangua | you do or do not, there is no try | 09:10 |
| mladoux | was there a question? | 09:10 |
| Ubnoobti | hi, I am using 12.04, and I am getting E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) any time I try to upgrade, remove or reinstall anything. | 09:10 |
| wafflej0ck | janolap1, yeah sorry don't know anything more than what I linked or what Google can answer about that specifically and too tired to be more helpful at this point | 09:10 |
| Ubnoobti | how do I fix it | 09:10 |
| mladoux | did you try running `sudo apt-get -f install` | 09:11 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, you try rebooting since you saw the error to see if some other process is causing dpkg problems | 09:11 |
| janolap1 | wafflej0ck : ok, thanks :-) | 09:11 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, could also try with -f like mladoux says or check /var/log/dpkg.log | 09:11 |
| mladoux | yeah, that should cause it to fix any incomplete package installs | 09:12 |
| mladoux | the log is useful too, because that will tell you what's broke in most cases. | 09:12 |
| Ubnoobti | for -f I get E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 09:12 |
| mladoux | something else is using it. | 09:12 |
| mladoux | perhaps the lock didn't get released | 09:12 |
| Ubnoobti | Ive rebooted, | 09:12 |
| Ubnoobti | no luck | 09:13 |
| mladoux | then 'sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock' | 09:13 |
| mladoux | and try again. | 09:13 |
| mladoux | but only if you've rebooted, and no other apt-gets are running | 09:13 |
| notfadssssssss | can someone help me potentially? I am trying to install ubuntu and after install successfully goes through initial reboot leads to a black screen.. If someone can help I will paypal them been at this for 2 days now, I have bootlogs! | 09:14 |
| Ubnoobti | no other apt gets are running | 09:14 |
| Ubnoobti | I did the rm /var command, nothing happened | 09:14 |
| mladoux | notfadssssssss, show boot logs, https://paste.ubuntu.com please | 09:14 |
| mladoux | you deleted the lock, there's no feedback | 09:15 |
| Ubnoobti | oh god, I just want to get skype working | 09:15 |
| Ubnoobti | should I just reinstall ubuntu? | 09:15 |

| zoobuntu | Hi there, I have a usb wifi device. Each time I reboot, the only way for me to have the system detect it is, by re-inserting the device physically. | 09:15 |
| zoobuntu | How can I make it detect itself at reboot? (on a command line installation) | 09:16 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, not sure had to debug with just that info though can pastebin your tail -f /var/log/dpkg.log too might give us some more details | 09:16 |
| wafflej0ck | hard* | 09:16 |

| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, tail just shows the last chunk of the output of a file | 09:20 |
| dts|pokeball | ** | 09:20 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, -f makes it "follow" the file so it will show any new output too, you can run the apt-get command after doing the tail -f so we can see what happens when you run the command if anything in the log | 09:21 |

| === Yukitteru is now known as Yukinotteru | ||
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, sounds like maybe you got some half package or something and it wasn't formatted properly as a result (missing the ending new line) but perhaps need to remove and re-install that package, like sudo apt-get install libvncserver0 --reinstall or whatever includes it | 09:27 |
| Ubnoobti | i spent 4 hours trying to figure it out | 09:27 |
| Ubnoobti | wafflej0ck: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633885/ | 09:29 |
| mladoux | notfadssssssss, it seems like, and I'm not sure on this, that the system might be trying to run fsck on an encrypted volume without decrypting it first, mistaking it for a disk that needs to be repaired and thus not booting... I'm looking for a work around. | 09:30 |
| notfadssssssss | mlaudoux: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9633874/ here is a fresh bootlog I might have linked an old copy | 09:30 |
| mladoux | cool | 09:31 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, hmm yeah seems like something got seriously botched with your apt-get when it comes to creating/deleting lock files so it's thinking other apt-get processes are still running or configuration programs | 09:31 |
| mladoux | oh, yeah, this is different, notfadssssssss give me a moment. | 09:31 |
| Ubnoobti | wafflej0ck: ??? | 09:32 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, if you are early on in your setup you might want to wipe it all out actually, wanted to try and help just get the immediate issues resolved but not sure about reinstalling apt-get and related components themselves | 09:32 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, apt-get creates these lock files so you don't run multiple instances at once since that can cause problems (two installs configuring the same files at the same time etc.) but something seems to be very wrong with how apt-get is working on your system | 09:33 |
| Ubnoobti | wafflej0ck: right... So whats my next step reinstalling ubuntu? | 09:34 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, if you ask me yea, but you might be able to get more support from others, but like I said if you just did this setup and are having problems with apt-get that seems very suspect of other things that could be wrong... did you or can you run md5sum on the image and check with the md5sum on the site you download from, that checksum should match between the two, good to verify this to be sure your download or burned/USB co | 09:36 |
| wafflej0ck | pied image is the same | 09:36 |
| wafflej0ck | Ubnoobti, gotta knock out here though 3:30am | 09:36 |
| Ubnoobti | alright man | 09:36 |

| mladoux | although, Grub is complaining about secureboot, which requires Grub 2.04 or newer, I believe, and you're running grub 1.99 | 09:40 |

| daychilde | (haven't booted into win7 for weeks) - shut down last night, booted this morning to grub rescue: "Entering rescue mode". | 12:34 |
| daychilde | s/ops/oops (sorry, bluetooth keyboard on kindle is cramped) | 12:34 |
| daychilde | Have done a little bit so far: | 12:34 |
| momomo | Hey folks, my ethernet by wired connectoin suddenly stopped working .. you are now offline .. i have tried to restart eh computer and what not.. nothing helps | 12:34 |
| daychilde | ls shows three partitions: (hd0), (hdo,msdos1), (hd,msdos2). Doing 'ls (hd0)/boot' for all three returns 'unknown file system'. Doing 'set' returns three parms, prefix, cmdpath, root. All reference hd0. Tried 'set boot=(hd0)', then 'insmod normal', but that returns unknown filesystem. Rebooting and boot= goes away. | 12:36 |
| daychilde | And finally, bootinginto livecd (which takes long time on ancient computer), gparted ran >30mins searching, nothing. But harddrive appears, but only Windows part. :/ | 12:37 |
| daychilde | oh, and I know it'ls all NTFS | 12:37 |
| Freed309 | I think Dual Booting sort of messed up your PC XD | 12:37 |
| daychilde | Probably, but it has been running this configutation for months if that helps | 12:38 |
| daychilde | no recent changes. upgraded to 14.10 a couple weeks ago I think | 12:38 |
| Freed309 | I'm not too knowledgable about that. But the bootloader seems to have been messed up. And it can happen spontaneously. | 12:38 |
| daychilde | I believe that :) | 12:38 |
| Freed309 | That may have been a factor. | 12:38 |

| daychilde | sorry, keyboard is tiny | 12:44 |
| illusionld | did you change any bios settings such as setting something to uefi or disabling it? | 12:44 |
| daychilde | nope, shut down last night and booted up this morning | 12:44 |
| illusionld | or anything with 'windows security' in bios | 12:44 |
| daychilde | haven't booted into windows for weeks to motnhs | 12:44 |
| illusionld | windows isn't booting either right? | 12:45 |
| daychilde | right, don't get boot menu anymore, just goes straight to grub rescue | 12:45 |
| daychilde | boot= is blank each time, too | 12:45 |
| jefinc | daychilde: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 12:45 |
| daychilde | jefinc: haven't yet but will gladly try that | 12:46 |

| littlebit | hi people, I wanted to copy the settings and configurations gvim from one xubuntu host to another. The dumb thing is that I thought that it would work. Now I'm standing here with a vim that gives me error messages every time when I start it. | 12:55 |
| littlebit | can someone help | 12:55 |
| daychilde | Crap. Okay, I ran Boot-Disk-Repair and now I get a Windows boot manager that says it can't start. But I don'lt want Windows at all.... any advice on how to get back to my xubuntu installation? D: | 13:11 |
| daychilde | gonna run it again and poke around, just hoping for advice. lol | 13:15 |
| clipse | test | 13:22 |
| daychilde | So I can see Windows files in /mnt/boot-sav/sda2 but no Xubuntu anything anywhere... can anyone help me see it if exists? gparted only shows sda1 and sda2. boot is on sda1. And this was what I had as of a few weeks ago - somehow xubuntu was running inside the windows partition......... does that make sense? | 13:27 |
| ikonia | daychilde: is this a wubi install ? | 13:28 |
| ikonia | it certainly sounds lke it | 13:28 |
| ikonia | like | 13:28 |
| daychilde | sorry, don't know what that is. When I installed, used LiveCD if that helps... at least, I'm pretty sure I did.... | 13:28 |
| daychilde | i'll google what that is, brb | 13:29 |
| daychilde | I don't recall anything about wubi when I installed, but I | 13:30 |
| daychilde | I'm somewhat of a liux newbie. Is there a way I can check to see? | 13:30 |
| k1l_ | daychilde: did you install ubuntu into own partitions? or did you install that inside windows? | 13:31 |
| daychilde | To the best of my memory, I isntalled from livecd and I don'lt know enough to manually set partitions, so I let it do it. But IIRC, I do only have these two partitions in gparted because I was going to resize xubuntus to make it larger, but couldn't figure out how | 13:32 |
| ikonia | daychilde: how many disks do you have in the system | 13:32 |
| daychilde | can say grub came up and offered boot options when I booted... I'm sorry I'm a newbie on this :/ | 13:33 |
| daychilde | one physical drive | 13:33 |
| k1l_ | daychilde: can you show a "sudo fdisk -l" (small L at the end) into a pastebin | 13:33 |
| ikonia | daychilde: when you say you installed from a livecd, did you boot the livecd, or put the CD in while running windows and click install ? | 13:33 |
| daychilde | sure, working | 13:33 |
| daychilde | boot livecd, I could swear, but it has been several months. brb with pastebin | 13:33 |
| daychilde | http://pastebin.com/Qg7wiyY3 | 13:35 |
| ikonia | it's going to be a wubi install | 13:36 |
| daychilde | so... I probably suck. lol. Any way to blow away Windows and get back my xubuntu, or..... can I safely reinstall Windows and then reinstall as wubi (and I can copy my data and blow it all away and screw dual booting)? | 13:37 |
| ikonia | daychilde: what is your end goal ? | 13:37 |
| daychilde | 1) however | 13:37 |
| daychilde | sorry | 13:37 |
| daychilde | 1) however I can, get back xubuntu. Don't care about windows. or 2) I have external drive, if I can copy files from Windows partition and use them to get xubuntu somehow...... like backup files, blow away hd, install fresh xubuntu, restore files | 13:38 |
| daychilde | if that akes sense | 13:38 |
| daychilde | *makes, sorry | 13:38 |
| ikonia | whats your end target system, ubuntu, windows, dual boot ? | 13:38 |
| daychilde | xubuntu only | 13:38 |
| daychilde | screw Windows heh | 13:39 |
| ikonia | daychilde: so why don't you just re-install xubuntu properly ? | 13:39 |
| ikonia | unless I've miss-understood you | 13:39 |
| daychilde | If I do that right now, will I lose my previous installation? I was in middle of changing backups so I do have valuable data I don't want to lose if possible | 13:39 |
| ikonia | daychilde: when you boot the machine, what happens, does it go to grub or boot straight into windows ? | 13:40 |
| daychilde | booting machine after boot-repair disk auto repair goes to Windows boot manager which refuses to boot, saying hardware changed (which is not true) | 13:40 |
| daychilde | (no longer goes to grub, which it used to) | 13:40 |
| ikonia | daychilde: this sounds like a wubi install, that you've used boot repair on and it's screwed up your boot loader | 13:41 |
| ikonia | that is a big guess though | 13:41 |
| daychilde | makes sense to me | 13:41 |
| daychilde | how is wubi install of ubuntu stored? how can I get to it? lol | 13:41 |
| ikonia | daychilde: not really, it does a file system in a file thats on the ntfs windows drive, | 13:41 |
| ikonia | it's a pretty messy process | 13:42 |
| ikonia | the boot loader setup is a real mess | 13:42 |
| daychilde | so basically I'm probably screwed already, from the sound of it? | 13:42 |
| ikonia | daychilde: you may get back into it, but without being rude, I'm not going to put the time into walking through, wubi is a mess and it was dropped for a good reason | 13:42 |
| daychilde | no, understand completely and appreciate help and time | 13:43 |
| daychilde | am ex tech support, so completely understood | 13:43 |
| daychilde | sounds like best bet is to do some googling - I have way more info than I had, so am very htankful - and either see if I can recover, or cut losses and blowhd away, which I can do myself. hehe. | 13:44 |
| daychilde | Many thanks for your help, and all of you. <3 | 13:44 |
| ikonia | no problem, sorry to not be positive about it | 13:44 |
| daychilde | nah, as said, understand 100% | 13:44 |
| ivarson | Im trying to browse my windows share from Nautilus in 14.10, im authed but get mount error: invalid argument | 13:48 |
| ivarson | I don't have to mess with smb.conf or mount.cifs to get nautils to work, do I? | 13:49 |
| ikonia | they are server settings | 13:49 |
| ikonia | not client | 13:49 |
| DrManhattan | I used the additional drivers app to install the ATI proprietary driver. It works well but I need to enable vsync globally so I don't get tearing when playing flash video. How do I do this? | 13:53 |
| ivarson | sorry, smb.conf might, I meant you could use mountutilities on the client to mount shares, but nautilus should be independent of such ? | 13:53 |
| DrManhattan | I am not seeing catalyst control center anywhere | 13:53 |
| ikonia | ivarson: smb.conf should not be used for the client | 13:54 |
| ikonia | ivarson: it is a server setting | 13:54 |
| ivarson | ikonia: yes you're right, but mount.cifs eg. you can mount remote share to local mountpoints. | 13:57 |
| ikonia | ivarson: that is a binary | 13:57 |
| ikonia | ivarson: you don't change a binary | 13:57 |
| ivarson | if you're not into reverse engineering, no of course not :-) | 13:58 |
| ikonia | I'm missing your point then | 13:58 |
| ivarson | sorry for being unclear | 13:58 |
| ivarson | Is the cifs/smb-functionality in Nautilus dependent on more "native" functionality in ubuntu. I always get error when trying to access shares so Im wondering if there's anything I can do to get nautlius working | 13:59 |
| ikonia | ivarson: it uses the libraries to allow smb over fuse support | 14:00 |
| ikonia | ivarson: if you're getting authentication failure, it's normally the windows machine refusing your auth, normally down to the username being wrong on connection | 14:00 |
| ikonia | ivarson: (some guess work there based on the more common problems people have) | 14:01 |
| ivarson | ikonia: thanks for your patience. The windows-box accepts my creds, I can see all share including hidden adminsitrative ones | 14:01 |
| ikonia | ivarson: how are you inputting your credentials ? | 14:01 |
| ikonia | ivarson: and where are you intputting them ? | 14:01 |
| ivarson | there's a credential-popup as soon as im trying to browse the "machine", since I use microsoft-account i use an email-adres for username, keeping Domain to the default WORKGROUP | 14:03 |
| jatt | ivarson: yes it is. you can access shares from the command line | 14:03 |
| ikonia | ivarson: try windowsmachinename\username@domain.com | 14:03 |
| ikonia | ivarson: it maybe trying to auth it somewhere other than the windows machine | 14:04 |
| ikonia | eg: locally | 14:04 |
| ivarson | ikonia: But i do get authed? If i type creds in any other way i get instant refused? it seems like a mount-issue | 14:04 |
| ikonia | ivarson: you could always try to mount it manually and see what it does | 14:05 |
| ivarson | shares such as C$ aren't event discoverable if you're anonymous/unauthed, aren't they? | 14:05 |
| ikonia | (outside of nautius) | 14:05 |
| ikonia | ivarson: depend, you're not on a windows machine, so how they get presented to a linux desktop is questionable | 14:05 |
| sempatnick | deneme | 14:07 |
| ivarson | sure, i can mess with mount.cifs or smbclient or smb4k. I just now that this works in gnome3 in other distros and I'd like to avoid having to mess with fstab or commandlines for this particular action | 14:08 |
| ikonia | ivarson: testing it an verifying it with a manual mount is step one, once we know the situation, we can move forward with nautlius from there | 14:09 |
| ivarson | You're right. Just one more Q; Do you know if and where nautilus logs this kind of activites, or is it possible to activate it in gconf-editor or something? | 14:10 |
| sempatnick | türkiye kanalı ne idi ? | 14:10 |
| ikonia | ivarson: it's going to be a fuse based mount, so I'm not sure where you'd see that, it's worth logging at the samba logs in /var/log too, as that used to log samba client connections, not sure if that would include fuse though | 14:11 |
| sempatnick | turkish chanel ? | 14:11 |
| ikonia | !tr | sempatnick | 14:11 |
| ubottu | sempatnick: Turk ubuntu kullanıcıları, Türkçe yardım ya da geyik için /join #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde. | 14:11 |
| sempatnick | thanks :D | 14:11 |
| ivarson | doesn't seem so. Thank you anyway for your effort ikonia | 14:12 |

Now I have followed various tutorials online and managed to get drupal going but then somehow broke the ability to read & write via FTP. Now the server is of a "patch work" of so in regards to settings etc. And I realise that since I'm quite a beginner | 14:14 |
| Tobbe82 | when it comes to ubuntu servers etc. I'd need some help. | 14:14 |
| ikonia | Tobbe82: I'd suggest re-installing ubuntu 14.04 - then asking people to guide you forward | 14:15 |
| Tobbe82 | First question is if I should start from scratch by doing a clean install and then set it up via the help of you guys (since all the tutorials and guides i've tried online eventuelly leads into permission problems) | 14:15 |

| ikonia | Tobbe82: you'll find a lot of tutorials online are written very badly by people who got it working from them | 14:15 |

| raiden | but i cant access it.. | 14:16 |
| raiden | timed out | 14:16 |
| Tobbe82 | yes ikonia this is sortof the same conclusion i've come to myself. I mean I understand all the different aspects of the installation etc. I just don't know if off hand and what is industry standard or some garage hacking so to speak | 14:16 |
| ikonia | Tobbe82: approach it in blocks, eg: install ubuntu, check, install apache and get a web page working, check, install drupal and it's dependencies, check | 14:16 |
| Tobbe82 | Ok let me go and re-partition / set up a new clean ubuntu 14.04 install and get back to you on it. | 14:17 |
| raiden | ikonia: what should i do to open for me on other computer? | 14:17 |
| ikonia | raiden: it's normally open by default | 14:17 |

| kasad | Guys, I'm suddenly having spare 100GB partition that I would like to mount as /home | 15:28 |
| kasad | do I just mount it temporarily, rsync it, then edit fstab and reboot | 15:29 |
| kasad | considering that my home dir is encrypted | 15:29 |
| nbusrone | MonkeyDust : sorry for a newbie question . root at sda3 | 15:29 |
| MonkeyDust | nbusrone yes, are / and home on separate partitions? | 15:29 |
| nbusrone | MonkeyDust : home and / are in a same partition | 15:29 |
| MonkeyDust | nbusrone then copying / would be copying your complete installation | 15:30 |
| kasad | any ideas guys? | 15:32 |
| kasad | does home being encrypted can botch my attempt to reformat now unused ntfs partition to ext4 and mount it as /home | 15:33 |

| nbusrone | MonkeyDust : ? , I wonder do I need to change anything ? possible as simple as tar.bz the whole / and format the sda3 , extract the tar.bz into sda6 , run live cd update grub , at terminal ( do I need to edit the UDID ) ? | 15:33 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | On a clean Ubuntu Server 14.04 that I just get-apt update && get-apt upgrade. Do I install SSH in order to telnet into the server? | 15:33 |
| kasad | rsync real home to it, edit fstab, reboot and profit | 15:33 |
| kasad | amirite? | 15:34 |
| kasad | you install sshd(aemon) in order to "telnet" into server via encrypted connection | 15:34 |
| copswin | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: whay | 15:35 |
| MonkeyDust | nbusrone never tried it, my advice: backup, then try that plan | 15:35 |
| kasad | always use ssh, ignore telnet, I don't use telnet even on my local network :P | 15:35 |
| cpika | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: there's #ubuntu-server with a better chance to help you out | 15:35 |
| nbusrone | MonkeyDust : ok Thanks :) | 15:35 |
| kaste | hello, I am having several issues with my new ubuntu installation. first of all it recognizes mz alt as an alt-gr which is a big issue because it bars me from using several commands that I really need (like switching irc channels) | 15:35 |
| copswin | MonkeyDust: sure | 15:35 |
| kaste | second when I suspend the laptop I lose my keyboard on the X11 | 15:36 |
| kasad | guys, anyone with an idea if encrypted /home will affect my plan | 15:36 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | Copswin what do you hope to gain by sending me a private mess where you are rude? | 15:36 |
| kaste | I tried working around that by restarting lightdm but that made me lose permission to fiddle with the wireless configuration | 15:36 |
| SchrodingersScat | kasad: that's a good question, I'm not sure myself. I'm not sure if I would transfer it encrypted and then change the mount and see if ubuntu fills in the blanks, but either way you should do backups now. | 15:37 |
| copswin | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: I an a person not a | 15:37 |
| kasad | SchrodingersScat: thanks, btw is there a way to unencrypt home? actually lemme google it | 15:38 |
| SchrodingersScat | !info openssh-server | Tobbe-82|Reinsta | 15:38 |
| Caleb-- | how do i unmount '/' in the recovery mode? i need to resize the filesystem and `umount /` doesn't seem to work | 15:38 |
| ubottu | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: openssh-server (source: openssh): secure shell (SSH) server, for secure access from remote machines. In component main, is optional. Version 1:6.6p1-8 (utopic), package size 356 kB, installed size 1099 kB | 15:38 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | copswin << I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve by sending unrespectful private messages to me. The only thing that will happen if you keep it up is that I'll report you to the admin requesting a ban for you due to uncivil conduct and then i'll put you on my ignore list. | 15:39 |
| EriC^^ | Caleb--: ? i think "/" is mounted in ro | 15:39 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | ubottu << Thank you :) | 15:39 |
| ubottu | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 15:39 |
| clausen | Windows doesn't recognise DVDs that I burn on Ubuntu (with Brasero or K3B). Any ideas? | 15:39 |
| EriC^^ | Caleb--: i don't think you can unmount it, boot a live usb and resize from there | 15:39 |
| kasad | Tobbe-82|Reinsta: msged me also, prolly a bot, or some fishy thing going on | 15:39 |
| kasad | small paste: | 15:39 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | kasad most likely a troll bot. | 15:40 |
| kasad | copswin> You dumb bastard | 15:40 |
| kasad | [16:36:31] <kasad> sup | 15:40 |
| kasad | [16:37:06] <kasad> I am definitely a bastard and getting dumber by the year | 15:40 |
| kasad | [16:37:17] <kasad> just lemme know how I did offend you in particular | 15:40 |
| copswin | clausen: Are you finalizing the cd? | 15:40 |
| kasad | yeah I guess so | 15:40 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | To ADMIN << Can you do a ban on copswin ?? he is send myself and others very rude, non civil privates mess and is clearly here to troll/flame | 15:40 |
| SchrodingersScat | you can flag people with !pm and add them to your ignore list, this is still !ubuntu support. | 15:40 |
| kasad | /ignore copswin | 15:40 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | thanks kasad, that will silence him :) | 15:41 |
| Caleb-- | EriC^^, looks like it could resize it online. i remounted as rw and it worked | 15:41 |
| clausen | copswin, brasero/k3b don't do that automatically? | 15:41 |
| MonkeyDust | Tobbe-82|Reinsta simpy use /ignore copswin, it's x-mas holliday, bored kids are online | 15:41 |
| Tobbe-82|Reinsta | thanks guys | 15:42 |
| notfadssssssss | can anyone help me with my fstab ? I need to fix it to read UUID's so I can boot >< | 15:42 |
| copswin | clausen: is it a RW disk. | 15:42 |
| EriC^^ | Caleb--: you're not supposed to resize a mounted partition | 15:43 |
| clausen | copswin, The disk is a DVD+R. Ultimately, I'd like to disable any kind of multisession on it (for security reasons) | 15:43 |
| copswin | The OPS must be on vacation. A lot of vulgar language directed about me. | 15:43 |
| Caleb-- | EriC^^, ext supports online resizing | 15:43 |
| clausen | copswin, but I can't get Windows to see it at all yet! (it looks like a blank disk to windows) | 15:43 |
| Caleb-- | EriC^^, in fact, it wanted me to mount the partition | 15:43 |
| copswin | clausen: a video or data disk | 15:44 |
| EriC^^ | https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/ext4grow.html | 15:44 |
| clausen | copswin, data | 15:45 |
| EriC^^ | Caleb--: unmounted seems to be in italics | 15:45 |
| copswin | Who uses DVD any more. Usb. | 15:45 |
| Caleb-- | EriC^^, yes, when *decreasing* the size of the partition | 15:48 |
| david543 | I need help. I just install 14.10 and i am having internet issues. My internet speed will gradually get slower over the course about 10 mins then disconnect. The only way for it to work again is to restart the machine. I am connecting view ethernet. | 15:48 |
| Caleb-- | EriC^^, i only needed to grow | 15:48 |
| clausen | david543, wireless? | 15:49 |
| === ck is now known as Guest84251 | ||
| david543 | clausen: ethernet | 15:50 |
| === Guest84251 is now known as ckarlsen | ||
| clausen | david543, weird, it sounds like a driver problem (which wireless is more prone to) | 15:50 |
| david543 | clausen: although I have wireless on the machine and it will do the same thing. I don't think its a driver issue. They are detected correctly. | 15:50 |
| david543 | clausen: Both do the exact same thing. | 15:50 |
| clausen | david543, does restarting networking, unloading/reloading drivers, etc. help? | 15:50 |
| david543 | clausen: It won't be unable to reconnect to the network. | 15:51 |
| clausen | david543, even before your 10min are up? | 15:51 |
| david543 | clausen: Only restarting the machine. Not sure exactly. Its not exactly 10 mins it varies | 15:51 |
| david543 | clausen: once I disconnect I can't reconnect | 15:51 |
| david543 | clausen: | 15:52 |
| david543 | clausen:I don't know if its relevant, I am also having issues with my bootloader/uefi | 15:52 |
| clausen | david543, I would try to debug this by trying to find the simplest thing that would kill your internet | 15:52 |
| clausen | for example, does shutting down the wireless also kill the wire connection? | 15:53 |
| clausen | what about the loopback device? | 15:53 |
| clausen | changing routing rules? | 15:53 |
| david543 | clausen: I have no idea how to do that. | 15:53 |
| david543 | clausen: Um, like only once can connect at a time. | 15:53 |
| david543 | *one | 15:53 |
| clausen | on the command line, what happens if you do: pkill -9 NetworkManager | 15:54 |

| unicorn437 | hello there, I'm running into issues accessing my newly created user. I can use su in the terminal to login to him, when I logout/reboot it doesnt accept the password however | 15:54 |

| mikeirc | Plz, I have problems installing ia32-libs on ubuntu 14.04. Without it, teamviewer and google-earth can't be installed | 15:57 |
| david543 | clausen: System Problem Dectected. Do you want to report this problem? | 15:58 |
| clausen | david543, please skip that | 15:58 |
| clausen | david543, (it's probably just reacting to us unceremoniously killing NetworkManager) | 15:59 |
| clausen | david543, did it affect your network connectivity | 15:59 |
| clausen | ? | 15:59 |
| david543 | clausen: Sorry Not sure, yet, working on it. I am having Kernel Errors | 16:00 |
| david543 | clausen: Kernel Oops, soft lockup cpu#3 Stuck for 22s (Xorg:1647) | 16:00 |
| clausen | david543, it sounds like you have Bigger Problems than just networking | 16:01 |
| clausen | david543, networking is probably just one of the symptoms | 16:01 |
| clausen | david543, I would look in /var/log/syslog for error messages that might give a hint about the problem | 16:01 |
| david543 | clausen: What should I do? | 16:01 |
| mikeirc | Plz, I have problems installing ia32-libs on ubuntu 14.04. Without it, teamviewer and google-earth can't be installed | 16:01 |
| david543 | clausen: Would you like to see my syslog? | 16:03 |
| clausen | david543, maybe you could put it on pastebin? | 16:03 |
| david543 | clausen: Sorry the entire system just locked up. Its pretty obvious, that the generic kernel isn't working for me. If it matters i am running on an 8320 AMDFX | 16:06 |
| kasad | so guys, any tips on moving encrypted home dir to new partition | 16:07 |
| clausen | david543, I'm sorry to hear that | 16:07 |
| david543 | clausen: The entire computer just blacked screened | 16:07 |
| clausen | david543, when you reboot, it should still have the syslog saved to disk | 16:08 |
| david543 | clausen: wl 0000:05:05 PCI-DMA out of IOMMU space for 2048 bytes | 16:08 |
| clausen | kasad, I think you can just unmount the decrypted/plaintext directory, and copy the encrypted stuff across... | 16:09 |
| david543 | eth0 failed to map tx DMA | 16:09 |
| clausen | david543, can you put the whole thing on pastebin? | 16:09 |
| david543 | clausen: Yes My computer just blacked screened saying that over and over again. Machine is rebooting | 16:09 |
| clausen | david543, thanks. hmmm, could be an io-mmu bug | 16:10 |
| notfadssssssss | can anyone help me with my fstab ? I need to fix it to read UUID's so I can boot >.> | 16:10 |
| notfadssssssss | first time dealing with this stuff so im a little lost | 16:10 |
| kasad | if I am correct, i think copying /home to new partition should leave me with unencrypted new /home | 16:11 |
| kasad | can somebody confirm | 16:11 |
| clausen | kasad, well, it would copy both the encrypted and plaintext across... | 16:11 |
| clausen | kasad, (the encrypted data is stored in ~/.Private, IIRC) | 16:11 |
| david543 | clausen: file size to large to put on pastebin | 16:12 |
| clausen | david543, really? | 16:12 |
| kasad | clausen, but would it work normally after editing fstab and reboot? | 16:12 |
| kasad | clausen: check this out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 16:12 |
| kasad | it says: | 16:12 |
| clausen | kasad, not sure, it might confuse it... | 16:12 |
| clausen | (I've never used it, I confess -- just read the doc's recently) | 16:13 |
| kasad | If you have an encrypted home file system, then the above will just leave you with an unencrypted copy of your files, which is probably not what you want. You could re-encrypt them after copying, or copy them in their encrypted form. Here is one way to do that. | 16:13 |
| david543 | clausen: 5 megs, and it started a new syslog. I am uploading to a file site | 16:13 |
| kasad | "above" being sudo rsync -aXS --exclude='/*/.gvfs' /home/. /media/home/. | 16:13 |
| clausen | david543, maybe you can compress it with gzip? | 16:14 |
| clausen | kasad, right, that's why I suggest unmounting the decrypted part, and just copying the encrypted data | 16:15 |
| david543 | clausen: Syslog's uploaded tinyupload Links are: | 16:15 |
| david543 | clausen: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=7768514955868392958 | 16:16 |
| clausen | david543, "File ID is not correct. File doesn't exist" | 16:17 |
| kasad | clausen: did I mention that I don't really care if I lose encryption, in fact if I could just get rid of it I'd be happy | 16:17 |
| david543 | clausen: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=41041456119709324864 | 16:18 |
| clausen | kasad, ah, in that case, you just need to exclude the ciphertext from the rsync command | 16:19 |
| kasad | clausen: so your idea is to copy everything that isn't encrypted, then unmount and then copy encrypted data from live usb (cd) just to make sure that is what youa re suggesting | 16:19 |
| kasad | so I am good with sudo rsync -aXS /home/. /media/home/. | 16:19 |

| k3nz0 | Hello guys, I'm trying to install linux alongside with windows. I launched the install and when it comes to "Installation type" it tells me that "This computer currently has no detected operating systems". But I have windows 7 installed on the computer | 16:19 |
| cfhowlett | k3nz0, commonly happens with GPT | 16:20 |
| EriC^^ | k3nz0: press something else, do you see your partitions? | 16:20 |
| david543 | clausen: let me know if you get a chance to take a look. | 16:20 |
| kasad | k3nz0: you will have to manually edit partition schema most likely | 16:20 |
| Balzy | Hello! I'm struggling with Hibernating with encrypted partitions, I've described my problem here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2258493 Any suggestions or ideas are welcome, thanks! | 16:20 |
| clausen | kasad: I'm looking for the documentation on where the private text is stored... | 16:20 |
| kasad | Balzy: I have suggestion for both you and me, don't use encrypted partitions :P | 16:21 |
| k3nz0 | EriC^^, I see /dev/sda1 ntfs and /dev/sda2 | 16:21 |
| EriC^^ | what's sda2? | 16:21 |
| kasad | as danny nicely put it here> http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/4-reasons-encrypt-linux-partitions/ | 16:21 |
| k3nz0 | ntfs too | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | is sda1 small? | 16:22 |
| k3nz0 | sda1 105 Mb | 16:22 |
| k3nz0 | Yes | 16:22 |
| strangerhellion | hi all. i am using ubuntu 14.04 64 bits. i need to install teamviewer. what is multiarch ? and which package will bi fine for me ? | 16:22 |
| k3nz0 | sda2 is 500gb | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | ok that's probably your boot partition | 16:22 |
| kasad | sda1 is most likely windows boot partition | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | k3nz0: ok, is there unallocated space? | 16:22 |
| k3nz0 | Nope | 16:22 |
| clausen | david543, try booting with the kernel parameter: amd_iommu=off | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | k3nz0: you need to resize sda2 ( shrink it ) in windows | 16:22 |
| cfhowlett | k3nz0, make it easy on all of us. sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit | 16:22 |
| EriC^^ | k3nz0: boot into win7 > control panel > disks management | 16:23 |
| clausen | david543, (you can edit the kernel command-line, once-off, in the Grub boot screen) | 16:23 |
| kasad | k3nz0: well, you should use gparted and prolly resize your c:\ partition (backup backup backup) | 16:23 |
| cfhowlett | k3nz0, for reference, I have win7 / ubuntu split equally on my 500 gb HDD. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9635448/ | 16:24 |
| clausen | kasad, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1449168 | 16:24 |
| david543 | clausen: I am unable to do that, there is no grub boot screen, just purple pause for a few seconds, no text. | 16:24 |
| clausen | oops, wrong way around | 16:24 |
| Balzy | kasad you have the same issue? I need encryption, I have sensible data on my laptop | 16:25 |
| clausen | david543, I think if you press shift, or escape, or something like that, you get access to the menu... | 16:25 |
| david543 | clausen: is there a way to edit grub with in the booted terminal or gui? | 16:25 |
| clausen | david543, yes, but it's a pain | 16:25 |
| k3nz0 | Okay, I pastebin fdisk -l and I reboot on windows to shrink sda2 | 16:25 |
| clausen | david543, and I need to get back to work in a minute... | 16:26 |
| EriC^^ | k3nz0: we need the link | 16:26 |
| k3nz0 | Yes yes ;) | 16:26 |
| clausen | kasad, yes, your plan should work, I think | 16:26 |
| k3nz0 | paste.ubuntu.com/9635466/ | 16:27 |

| cylebailey | is that to join a channel | 16:31 |
| david543 | clausen: do i just type "amd_iommu=off" under setparams? | 16:31 |
| kasad | clausen: do you think this would work http://askubuntu.com/questions/138950/how-to-disable-encrypted-home-directory | 16:31 |
| clausen | kasad, yes, looks good | 16:32 |
| clausen | kasad, but your rsync approach looks safer | 16:32 |
| EriC^^ | cylebailey: /join #channel | 16:32 |
| cylebailey | cheers i got it | 16:32 |
| kasad | what else do I need to rsync besides /home, where is the rest of encrypted stuff if not in .Private? | 16:33 |
| clausen | david543, see http://grumpymole.blogspot.co.uk/2007/05/ubuntu-how-to-edit-grub-boot-parameters.html | 16:33 |
| clausen | kasad, I think you're fine just rsyncing /home | 16:34 |
| clausen | (but you don't need to delete anything... so you can test it out first...) | 16:34 |

| vlt | Hello. How can I downgrade libavcodec to a version not affected by bug https://bugzilla.libav.org/show_bug.cgi?id=793 (committed in April 2014) to be able to decode h.264 IPB video? | 17:13 |

| kasad | !ubottu help | 17:14 |
| kasad | doh | 17:14 |
| kasad | still hesitating | 17:14 |
| kasad | I spend 30 hours configuring everything plus virtual machines that are inside | 17:14 |
| kasad | I have some of the stuff backed up, but I simply do not have space for rest (apart from the 100gig partition that is about to become new home) | 17:15 |
| kasad | clausen: you mentioned reading about encrypted homedirs recently | 17:15 |
| kasad | did you saw anything related encrypted swap | 17:15 |
| kasad | that's what is having me think that it will fail miserably | 17:16 |
| kasad | not sure if I can just remount or reformat swap after the before mentioned procedure | 17:16 |
| squeegily | Hey guys. My laptop can't resume from suspend. I did some tests, though, and it CAN resume from suspend if the init script hasn't run | 17:20 |
| squeegily | So something the init script does messes it up | 17:20 |
| squeegily | It's an Acer Aspire One 751h | 17:21 |
| === esde_ is now known as esde | ||
| squeegily | I already tried all the --quirk-* | 17:21 |
| squeegily | The only constant was that it couldn't suspend if the init script had run | 17:21 |
| squeegily | Hiibernate works fine | 17:23 |
| rical | I have set /dev/ttyS0 for grub, kernel and init. Long story short, the last thing I can see on VGA or console is "Welcome to Grub". And I can't enter the encryption key. What to do? I have the ability to reboot into a live cd and unlock the disk. However, I can't find any grub config on any partition? | 17:25 |

| affy | Hi. I have a fairly new install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (x64). My mouse has strange movements. Sometimes when I move it straight up, it goes up to the left. The issue is consistent among regions of the desktop. It seems that in the middle of the screen, when dragging up and down, it goes sideways too. Extremely difficult to play counter-strike :( | 17:31 |
| Guest34124 | squeegily: it is not about sudo, it is because a docker container creates some files as root and i would like to change those files without sudo. | 17:32 |
| squeegily | Guest34124: Maybe you should figure out how to make those files owned by you | 17:32 |
| squeegily | Does Docker have a run-as-user option? | 17:32 |
| MonkeyDust | squeegily my laptop wakes up after 24 hours, then shuts down at 4am, unless i interrupt by waking manually <-- energy saving | 17:33 |
| Guest34124 | squeegily: mysql needs to be run as root in the docker container and therefore i have no idea how to tackle this convinient problem | 17:33 |
| squeegily | MonkeyDust: Okay, today, for some reason, it was one of the fluke times when suspend just works | 17:34 |
| squeegily | I just tried suspending via sudo sh -c 'echo "mem" > /sys/power/state' and that worked. So did sudo pm-suspend | 17:34 |

| mickey_ | k1l: etc grub.d or boot grub | 17:53 |
| === [Arab] is now known as LogicMatters | ||
| k1l | mickey_: /etc/grub.d rename the 30_os-prober to something between 5 and 10 | 17:54 |
| k1l | mickey_: then re run the sudo update-grub | 17:54 |
| squeegily | MonkeyDust: rtcwake is giving "rtcwake: suspend to "standby" unavailable" | 17:54 |
| Annoyed | Anyway... How is 14.04 controlling services? seems that there are multiple systems in place.. override files, something called upstart and rc-update? | 17:54 |
| k1l | !upstart | Annoyed but some services still use the older sysvinit | 17:55 |
| ubottu | Annoyed but some services still use the older sysvinit: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 17:55 |
| mickey_ | k1l: and then do sudo grub-update? | 17:55 |
| Ace2Race | what do you mean by"whitch video card" | 17:55 |
| MonkeyDust | squeegily options are: -m mem or -m disk <-- suspend or hibernate | 17:55 |
| Bashing-om | notfadssssssss: Not to know is not a sin, one does learn. However, - I do not see any provision for ubuntu. Where is the 1st hard drive 'sda' ?? Ubuntu would be installed on a partition of file system type 'ext4'. // show -> sudo blkid | pastebinit <- . | 17:56 |
| k1l | Ace2Race: you want to install a video driver. so we need to know which video card you got build in so we can choose the video driver for that | 17:56 |
| mickey_ | k1l: and what about the fact that there is already a 10_linux? | 17:56 |
| Ace2Race | how do i check it | 17:57 |
| k1l | mickey_: dont rename it to 10 | 17:57 |

| squeegily | It didn't wake up automatically from -m disk -s 7 | 17:57 |
| mickey_ | k1l: okay so overlapping numbers are acceptable | 17:57 |
| squeegily | MonkeyDust: It didn't wake up automatically from -m disk -s 7 | 17:58 |
| squeegily | Is there a way to hybrid suspend with this? | 17:58 |
| k1l | mickey_: the number means the row on which the grub menu is listed. if you want the windows entry (which is the os-prober) to be listed before the linux entries make it a number smaller than 10 but after 5 so its run after the grub theming but before the linux entries are listed | 17:58 |
| mickey_ | k1l: sorry for all the questions but if I mess this up I won't be able to diagnose it | 17:58 |
| squeegily | I don't want to have to restart xchat again | 17:58 |

Then we know what we are working with . | 18:01 |
| squeegily | MonkeyDust: Okay, it seems that whatever rtcwake does "fixes" suspend | 18:01 |
| notfadssssssss | bashing-on: want me to do | pastebinit after? | 18:02 |
| Ace2Race | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9635941/ | 18:02 |
| MonkeyDust | squeegily odd: it didnt wake from -m disk here, either | 18:02 |
| squeegily | After I've used rtcwake to suspend at least once that boot, after that I can use other suspend methods perfectly | 18:02 |
| Bashing-om | notfadssssssss: Yes ! sheessh - sorry 'bout that - // sudo gdisk -l /dev/sdc | pastebinit . | 18:03 |
| squeegily | MonkeyDust: It's understandable that it wouldn't auto-wake from Hibernate | 18:03 |

| johnb003_ | hi, I think my router is croaking right now, and it dawned on me I have a nice server right here, think it would be a good idea to have my server also handle the router work? | 19:06 |

| EriC^^ | grodiungs: you deleted the bios-boot partition? or the /boot partition? | 19:08 |
| grodiungs | i dont know what the /boot partition is so i ddint delet it | 19:09 |

| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: nope | 19:11 |
| bubbasaures | grodiungs, Ah, than use the mint channel to fix your grub issue, not a ubuntu issue anymore to be honest. | 19:12 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^ kk no message or prompt appeared | 19:12 |
| bubbasaures | grodiungs, Look up super grub and boot the mint and reload grub there. | 19:12 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, type sudo chroot /mnt/test | 19:13 |
| grodiungs | bubbasaures: how would i boot into it without a boot loader? Iam currently running off a usb mint | 19:13 |

| manticpixel | Yo | 20:01 |
| NurdTurd | Whats the issue? | 20:01 |
| squinty | kyluc88: might want to try using the boot option "nomodeset" | 20:02 |
| squinty | kyluc88: Start a reboot and hold down the Shift key. Press the e key on getting the GRUB bootloader. Using arrow keys navigate to and delete quiet and splash and type the word nomodeset in their place. Press Ctrl and X at the same time to continue booting | 20:02 |
| squinty | kyluc88: see if that gets you into your desktop | 20:03 |
| kyluc88 | THX squinty - i will try it now | 20:03 |

| notfadssssssss | eric^^: under boot options there is a EFI optimized boot it is disabled does this need to be enabled? | 20:09 |
| squinty | kyluc88: might want to check from the grub boot menu recovery option to see if you have an old /etc/X11/xorg.conf and rename it (or delete it if you want) and then try rebooting. also might want to try accessing the Guest account from the lightdm logon screen to see if the problem is particular to your account or not | 20:13 |

| kasad | Bashing-om: while I am sucking here and you are helping me not kill myself, do you maybe have idea how to migrate /home to new partition, with encrypt home directory enabled? (now I'm beeing greedy) | 20:31 |
| Bashing-om | kasad: Most likely the only problem. Reboot when chmods are done and see if it is effective . | 20:31 |
| kasad | Bashing-om: rebooting now, think that's the prob all the way, uninstalled mesa for nothing | 20:32 |
| Bashing-om | kasad: Not a problem to ask, but encryption is something I shy away from . can not advise in such an instance . | 20:32 |

| entropius | Is there any way to see what is going on with the installer? I'm installing kubuntu 14.10 and it is taking an inordinately long time (on "preparing libreoffice-common"). This install has been obnoxious in other ways, despite being done on fast hardware. Is there some file I can tail to see what is going on? | 20:34 |
| Bashing-om | kasad: You have the right of that .. encryption is a level of complexity that is very difficult to overcome . In the event of problems . you do have a problem ! | 20:34 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: for i /dev /dev/pts /proc /run /sys; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done | 20:34 |
| compdoc | ardian, the open source should be installed already, if not activate it. See how well it runs | 20:35 |
| compdoc | use the proprietary if you need to | 20:36 |
| bubbasaures | entropius, If you ticked the update while installing it will take longer | 20:36 |

| kyluc88 | Hi all, working with 14.04 LTS. Recently had an interrupted update due to network issue. Now, when I enter my pw on GUI, ... the desktop workspace never appears. Comp does not freeze (mouse is moving), but .. login never completes. I see only login GUI (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) | 20:41 |
| Crell | Hi folks. I am tracking an intermittent error with Ubuntu server 14.04. The hardware is ostly 9 years old, and using a boot CD I've verified that the hardware is all fine AFAICT. | 20:42 |
| Crell | However, copying large amounts of data when booted to the installed 14.04 system reguarly causes fatal issues, eg, kernel panics. | 20:42 |
| kasad | Bashing-om: it says VGA compatible controller, (mobility radeon xpress 200m) etc etc, but this machine won't be used for more then surfing, most intensive apps being run will be virtualbox of his previous winxp machine and his mother using FB/Youtube, so I think I am good with the driver | 20:42 |
| Crell | The error message mentions a Bad RIP value, but Googling turns up that error on a dozen different things going back to at least 2006. | 20:43 |
| Crell | I was able to copy 200 GB over the netwrok without incident using a Boot CD, so I am assuming the hardware is all fine. It's some issue with the OS. | 20:43 |
| kasad | Bashing-om: is there a way to migrate all the settings to different user or something, just to avoid that encryption, then I would delete this user, and mount 100GB partition as /home | 20:43 |
| Crell | How do I even start tracking this down? :-/ | 20:43 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^:http://paste.ubuntu.com/9636785/ | 20:43 |

| kasad | Bashing-om: I found different guides telling different things, so I am kinda afraid to try it, I spent way too much time configuring this | 20:44 |
| Bashing-om | kasad: No I can not say .. encryption, I do not know how to cope with it . | 20:44 |
| Crell | squinty: I've had mixed results there, too. I don't know that it's a server-specific issue; it seems kernel-related mostly? | 20:44 |
| kasad | Bashing-om: thanks anyway. you already helped me tons and saved me lots of time | 20:45 |
| daftykins | Crell: was it a clean 14.04.1 install, or a history of updates? | 20:45 |

| Crell | daftykins: Clean install via USB. The install went fine. | 20:46 |
| basichash | i thought it was "command parm1 param2 2&>1 error.txt | 20:46 |
| kasad | Bashing-om: now if i could only figure how to at least migrate all the settings, I set up like million things for his mom, and him, it would take me hours and hours to configure everything again :S | 20:46 |

| Crell | daftykins: The drives are all brand new. And I was able to, from an older boot CD, copy 200 GB of data off of the RAID drives to a remote system without a single hiccup. | 20:50 |
| basichash | thanks | 20:50 |
| notfadssssssss | lol well change is good iguess | 20:50 |
| daftykins | Crell: over what protocol? you've never encountered faulty new disks? hrmm :P | 20:50 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: efi shell booted | 20:50 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: what happened? | 20:50 |
| kyluc88 | Blueskaj_ : i did than via grub / root access with nw.. | 20:50 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: hmm | 20:51 |
| Crell | daftykins: All copying was rsync over ssh. And yes I've run into bad drives before, which is why I tried from the boot CD. It seems unlikely that a hardware issue would manifest itself with only one OS doing the same thing, no? | 20:51 |
| daftykins | where does 'one OS' come into this? | 20:52 |
| Crell | The installed 14.04 instance vs. the older boot CD. | 20:52 |
| kyluc88 | Blueskaj_ : when ctl+alt+f1 i get <comp> login: which does not respond .. i enter my username it comes back to <comp> login: | 20:52 |
| Crell | Both pushed 200 GB-ish over the network using rsync/ssh. Only one died every couple of gigs and needed a reboot. | 20:52 |
| BluesKaj_ | kyluc88, doesn't ask for pw after login on VD? | 20:53 |
| schoppenhauer | I am trying to access a braille line, which always worked in earlier ubuntu versions. Now, when trying to access it, I get the error "usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usb-storage while 'brltty' sets config #1". I tried blacklisting and searched for udev options, but ... nothing seems to work like it did a few years ago, so I have no clue what to do. | 20:53 |
| daftykins | Crell: so what was the boot disc? | 20:53 |
| Crell | The kernel panic call tace appears to be doing some IRQ handling aroun SCSI. (At least that's the keywords in the stack trace.) | 20:53 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: sorry my bad | 20:54 |
| kyluc88 | Blueskaj_: no, it returns to <comp> login: | 20:54 |
| daftykins | Crell: i take it the OS is alongside the data on the RAID volume? | 20:54 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: i just checked my efibootmgr -v , and my bootmgfw.efi is in EFI/Microsoft/Boot/ | 20:54 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: boot the live usb again, we'll try to put it there | 20:54 |
| Crell | daftykins: Yes, it's a single partition on a 3-disk RAID 5 array. | 20:54 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: as long as you stop saying sorry for helping me out :P | 20:54 |
| Crell | (Software RAID, setup by the installer.) | 20:54 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok :P | 20:55 |
| daftykins | Crell: i'd bet that wouldn't be happening with the OS outside the volume | 20:55 |
| Crell | Why would that matter? | 20:55 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: btw so now that I go to boot device menu there are not 2 ubuntus there | 20:56 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: Ubuntu and ubuntu | 20:56 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 20:56 |
| EriC^^ | oh, i see | 20:57 |
| notfadssssssss | are now* | 20:57 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: still want me to boot from live CD? | 20:57 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 20:57 |
| notfadssssssss | kk | 20:57 |
| Crell | daftykins: Why would it matter if the OS itself is on a RAID partition? (This is the first time I've tried setting up a RAID configuration.) | 20:58 |
| BluesKaj_ | kyluc88, then use you live media/cd/dvd/usb and run kubuntu, open a terminal and do, sudo grub-install /dev/sdX , most likely /dev/sda | 20:58 |
| Crell | daftykins: The boot CD was an older version of http://www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd, booted to the Linux/parted magic option. | 20:58 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: kk ready | 20:59 |
| dvl | There is/was a script provided with Unbuntu's installation of Bacula (backup software) and I'm trying to locate that script in order to report a bug with it. I figured the first step was locate the script... I'm failing. | 20:59 |
| daftykins | Crell: so you don't have any prior experience with RAID but are asking me how it'd be affected? :) | 20:59 |
| Crell | If I knew how it would be affected I wouldn't need to ask. At least from the Ubuntu documentation it seemed like it should be a straightforward process. | 21:00 |
| Crell | Given that it's a 20 year old technology I expected it to be fairly stable on a modern Linux version, especially when the installer directly supports it. | 21:01 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt | 21:01 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: sudo mkdir /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot | 21:01 |

| daftykins | Crell: what is it exactly? 20 years seems incredibly doubtable | 21:06 |
| Crell | RAID. | 21:06 |
| entropius | is it unusual for the installer to take over an hour on a machine with a SSD and modern CPU? | 21:07 |
| Crell | daftykins: You were making it sound like the proble is using RAID in the first place, which I would find highly surprising as it's hardly a new and untested technology. | 21:07 |

| daftykins | Crell: no, i'm suggesting it's going funny with your setup. | 21:08 |
| daftykins | Crell: but if these disks are brand new on an alleged "20 year old" system, you must be using some kind of HBA to connect them | 21:09 |

| notfadssssssss | eric^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9636886/ | 21:09 |
| daftykins | Crell: yeah so put the OS on a separate disk, use the RAID volume as a mounted data point only, then see how you get on | 21:09 |
| Crell | No, the hardware is Athlon 64, about 8-9 years old I believe. The motherboard supports SATA, which all of the new drives are. | 21:09 |
| Bashing-om | super, 1st is to make sure the liveUSB is valid . Did you verify the .iso file with md5sum ? Can you boot to the liveUSB's boot options screen ? | 21:10 |

| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: okay, i was hoping i could just use an older kernel to get it running then upgrade so i didnt have to figure out why the usb didnt work. I'll get that working and report back | 21:19 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, we can maybe try to manually boot the .efi file | 21:20 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: im game for anything. | 21:20 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: in the efi shell, type map | 21:21 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: so boot the shell | 21:21 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 21:21 |
| mr-excellent | how to upgrade ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10 | 21:21 |
| Lando-SpacePimp | emma wants you all to know that you're all sour cunts. | 21:21 |
| EriC^^ | mr-excellent: sudo do-release-upgrade | 21:21 |
| Lando-SpacePimp | That is all | 21:21 |
| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: Booting the liveUSB is operating system independent. If the boot code on the liveUSB is good, then bios will look no further if the USB is set as 1st boot priority . | 21:21 |
| marcelino671 | Have a away to run tor without the use of firefox? Because I run the torbrowser, and then open Chrome with the proxy service in port 9150... | 21:21 |
| teward | marcelino671: install the tor daemon in the backend | 21:22 |
| teward | marcelino671: tor-browser is nice if you want an all-in-one package, but it's not the actual tor daemon | 21:22 |

| teward | marcelino671: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en is for Debian/Ubuntu - and I suggest following it to the letter | 21:23 |
| entropius | This install is taking forever. 1 GB/sec USB drive medium installing Kubuntu to a SSD on a machine with plenty of RAM/CPU/etc. It's taken over an hour to install packages. Any idea what's going on? | 21:23 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: type cd \EFI\ubuntu | 21:23 |
| teward | marcelino671: note you'll have a lot of sites regularly used complaining, but meh | 21:24 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: woah.... target directory not found? | 21:24 |
| wafflej0ck | entropius, did you select to download packages during install? what's it say on screen currently? | 21:24 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: type ls | 21:24 |
| Bashing-om | entropius: What is the internet connection ? wired or WIFI ? Wired should not take longer than 20 minutes, on a good connection . | 21:25 |

| teward | mr-excellent: not sure what your question is, but that's highly opinion based. | 21:25 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, that's the live usb | 21:25 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: holy.. | 21:26 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: could it be the efi partition doesnt have the ef00 type set? | 21:26 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: googling tells me to fix the missing kernel to use a livecd/usb and copy it over. i obviously messed up the first liveusb so tried the slightly different cd i had laying around. no luck with that so back to making a usb that actually works :) | 21:27 |
| wafflej0ck | mr-excellent, this room is for support if you want general chat go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:27 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: i have not the slightest idea. | 21:27 |
| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: Make up a USB that works . do a full CHange Root into the install and from the CHRoot, apt-get install the kernel . | 21:28 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, we might as well try to see the other stuff that showed up in map | 21:28 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: try hd48f0b: | 21:29 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: i usually use dd. is there another way i should be making the usb on debian? | 21:29 |
| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: 'dd' is what I often see recommended, I do not use USBs myself so I am real short on direct advise . | 21:30 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: i prefer using cds/dvds. but my machine with the dvd burner is the one with no kernel... so yeah | 21:31 |
| mladoux | EriC^^, he's bios booting the main system, not efi, at least that's were left off. He had the thing where it was trying to boot off of sdb instead of sda after reboot going on. | 21:31 |
| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: Will not matter to the operating system . You will boot the DVD and then boot into the operating system . IF ya got a DVD it will work fine to do what you need . | 21:32 |
| EriC^^ | mladoux: nah, he's booting the right disk, but it looks like the efi shell can't get that the efi partition is there | 21:33 |
| EriC^^ | mladoux: it's not showing up in map as a recognized file system | 21:33 |
| schoppenhauer | *push* I assume nobody here will know this because nobody here un | 21:34 |
| schoppenhauer | I am trying to access a braille line, which always worked in earlier ubuntu versions. Now, when trying to access it, I get the error "usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usb-storage while 'brltty' sets config #1". I tried blacklisting and searched for udev options, but ... nothing seems to work like it did a few years ago, so I have no clue what to do. | 21:34 |
| mladoux | EriC^^, that's because it's set up for bios boot, not efi on the server | 21:34 |
| mladoux | there's no efi partition on the server. | 21:34 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: Bashing-om i have many dvds laying around, just not 14.04 gnome that's running on the kernel-less machine. so trying the usb | 21:35 |
| marcelino671 | teward: Ty, I install tor, But when I try to run the command "tor" in terminal, I receive a error: apt-get install deb.torproject.org-keyring | 21:35 |
| uchuonna | schoppenhauer; does swapping the usb ports they use make any difference? | 21:35 |
| schoppenhauer | uchuonna: no | 21:35 |
| marcelino671 | teward: I have used tor browser, but I close before run the tor command in terminal | 21:35 |
| teward | marcelino671: that error you pasted is a command you should run, not an 'error', care to verify that's what you're seeing? | 21:36 |
| uchuonna | schoppenhauer; is there some other usb drive which didn't used to be there? | 21:36 |
| marcelino671 | teward: sorry, is this error: Could not bind to 127.0.0.1:9050: Address already in use. Is Tor already running? | 21:36 |
| teward | marcelino671: tor doesn't need manual starting - iirc it runs as a service automatically | 21:37 |
| teward | marcelino671: try `sudo service tor stop` and then `sudo service tor start` | 21:37 |
| schoppenhauer | uchuonna: it loads the internal sdcard, and the keyboard from there. I tried to blacklist usbhid and usb_storage, but they are reloaded again though. | 21:37 |
| mladoux | We switched it to BIOS boot because EFI was just proving to be painful | 21:37 |
| EsoRotica | I'm having troubles with a USB optical mouse disconnecting, Have tried several ports. Dont see what I need to in the logs. Mouse works in another computer. Seems to be something to do with usb powersave and not sure how to continue debugging. Device stays connected in lsusb, doesnt seem to be any laptop tools installed | 21:38 |
| marcelino671 | teward: ty, I go test | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | mladoux: there is a efi partition | 21:38 |
| mladoux | there shouldn't be, except on the liveusb | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | mladoux: this is his parted -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/9636675/ | 21:38 |
| schoppenhauer | uchuonna: in the last ubuntu version, it worked. | 21:38 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: are you there? | 21:38 |
| uchuonna | schoppenhauer; is the sd card your boot drive? | 21:39 |
| mladoux | dammit | 21:39 |
| mladoux | EriC^^, he must have converted the wrong disk | 21:39 |
| mladoux | or it got converted by the installer. | 21:39 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 21:39 |

| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: Mine for a bios based system : sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt , for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done , sudo chroot /mnt .

| uchuonna | schoppenhauer; a non-usb keyboard could work around the hid problem | 22:04 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok | 22:04 |
| schoppenhauer | uchuonna: the braille line has an integrated sd-card and keyboard. | 22:04 |
| schoppenhauer | uchuonna: so this is not an option. | 22:04 |

| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: anything about disks? | 22:05 |
| EriC^^ | is legacy boot turned off? or something hybrid going on? | 22:05 |

| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: Ummmm .. kernel series 3,8 is real old, would not be surprised if it is NOT available .. in release 14.04 -> linux-image-3.13.0-43-generic . | 22:08 |
| SchrodingersScat | wetwetwet: normally theirs | 22:08 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, check it out | 22:08 |
| uchuonna | schoppenhauer; maybe. but you could start by asking questions at the libusb development team's site, they have a page for submitting new issues; http://libusb.info/ | 22:08 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: there is in danved onboard sata controller and sata mode stuff | 22:08 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: kk what am i looking for really? | 22:08 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: i've no idea :) | 22:08 |
| EriC^^ | Bashing-om: ? ^^^ | 22:09 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: yeah it's downloading 3.13.0-* so the 3.8* command seems to work | 22:09 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: lol kk | 22:09 |
| wetwetwet | When I connect to someone's pc using SSH and do some work using that computer's processing power, will I be using my HDD space or their HDD space? | 22:09 |
| BluesKaj_ | wetwetwet,you are essentially running the remote pc from your KB so the remote pc HDD is the one that's being used | 22:10 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: i think that just caused it to install all kernels. its grabbing generic & low latency from 3.13.0-24 up | 22:10 |
| Bashing-om | EriC^^: notfadssssssss . In UEFI land booting, I am lost, as I do not know what files should be where .. I am still concerned, however, that 'sda' is not assigned . No isea as to how to check .. maybe read the kernel log and see what it says ? | 22:10 |
| Bashing-om | superfacepalm: How large is your /boot partition ? fingers crosssed . | 22:11 |
| wetwetwet | thanks BluesKaj_ | 22:11 |
| devnn | How much free space do I need to leave on a ext4 fs? Not many are discussing this, is it because there is no limit to how much you can fill the fs? | 22:12 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: ok so i got it open am i like... looking for loose wires at this point O.o | 22:13 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: hmm, no it's fine | 22:13 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: if it's easy to switch it and you've done it before go for it maybe | 22:13 |
| notfadssssssss | its half difficult to get to the HDDs but the raid controller I can change the connectors from the HDD to that easy | 22:14 |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: hopefully larger than 3,035mb. though it was a full boot partition that caused me to delete the kernel in the first place. at least i have a working liveusb now incase this screws everything up again | 22:14 |

| function9x | Crell: since no one seems to be available, I'll give it a shot. I've never tried a usb install, only dvd. When the usb boots up, do you get two options, 1. Try Ubuntu, 2. Install Ubuntu | 23:25 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, it's up to you, it seems it needs to be removed, i've no experience with that, unless i guess you need to be grounded while handling the parts | 23:25 |
| Crell | function9x: This is the server install. It doesn't have a "try" option. :-) | 23:25 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ##hardware should know more about this issue i guess | 23:25 |
| function9x | ahh | 23:25 |
| nopf | (any shell which goes in my homedir hangs, because 1 zsh has a prompt which searches for things in . which are not available because of network failure. so 2 doing a login with another shell would probably also work) | 23:26 |
| function9x | Crell: well here ya go: /j #ubuntu-server | 23:26 |
| function9x | :D | 23:26 |
| function9x | bbl | 23:26 |
| * Crell sighs. | 23:26 | |
| superfacepalm | Bashing-om: update; added a new user with old username & pass. switched user and everything is copying fine. thanks again. | 23:26 |
| nopf | ohno. i clicked on properties of the mount and now even the nautilus is darkening :/ | 23:27 |
| CalebW | Anything else i can do? -k1l | 23:28 |
| nopf | ah, it repaired itself via network timeout... | 23:29 |
| nopf | hm, but it killed the terminal :/ | 23:29 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: kk i am gonna try this out | 23:29 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: ok, let me know when you reset it | 23:29 |
| nopf | ...teaches me to always keep a locked virtual console in / | 23:30 |
| DrManhattan | well, surprise surprise, all the issues I had with my AMD processor in windows have magically disappeared in linux | 23:30 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: kjk back | 23:43 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: ok well heres something dangerously interesting... there are now no ubuntu installs? | 23:44 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: lets hope i didnt just break it lol | 23:44 |
| bubbasaures | it's all magic here | 23:45 |
| Bashing-om | EriC^^: notfadssssssss :: I am ata loss again "sd 4:0:0:0: [sda] 15124992 512-byte logical blocks: (7.74 GB/7.21 GiB) " only seeing 7.74 GB ? and only this one partition on that drive ( 7.277253] sda: sda1 ) . | 23:46 |
| notfadssssssss | that seems like its a live cd reading | 23:46 |
| Ottoman- | hi all.. | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: that's normal, cause you reset the bios | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: drop to the efi shell | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | and type map ( live usb removed ) | 23:48 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: cannot find map >< | 23:50 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: maybe try the disk connections? | 23:51 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 23:51 |
| notfadssssssss | meaing? | 23:51 |
| notfadssssssss | like the actual sata cords? | 23:51 |
| EriC^^ | plug it somewhere else or something | 23:51 |
| notfadssssssss | is the raid controller doing this efi stuff? | 23:52 |
| EriC^^ | i think when you turn raid on it will turn efi on too or something | 23:52 |
| notfadssssssss | im wondering if I ditched the raid card, will efi go with it? | 23:53 |
| EriC^^ | give it a shot | 23:53 |
| notfadssssssss | well im just simply not familiar with EFI | 23:54 |
| Santiago_mza | hola amigos | 23:54 |
| MarsX | Hi | 23:54 |
| MarsX | I've a problem with connecting to SSH globally! | 23:54 |
| notfadssssssss | i dont wanna do all that work right now, ive been troubleshooting this server since 11pm.(its now 7pm) | 23:54 |
| MarsX | I can connect but when I connect it freeze the terminal !!! | 23:55 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^: are we at simply hardware troubleshooting now? | 23:55 |
| MarsX | Cool you | 23:55 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: well as far as i can tell the efi shell isn't seeing the drive | 23:56 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: should be able to run that map command | 23:57 |
| === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: if you want a hack you could install in legacy mode | 23:57 |
| notfadssssssss | eric^^:define hack? | 23:57 |
| EriC^^ | not really a hack | 23:58 |
| hichamat | Question : I know about find -type f -mtime -2, but I want to find files by modification date (less than a given date like 20141228) | 23:58 |
| EriC^^ | i was about to say you could have the live usb's grub boot the ubuntu installation | 23:58 |
| EriC^^ | that would be a pretty ugly hack | 23:58 |
| notfadssssssss | the live usb doesnt even see the ubuntu installed... | 23:59 |
| bane | Anyone recommend a dongle for bluediving? | 23:59 |
| noobix | hichamat i would ask in #bash | 23:59 |
| EriC^^ | notfadssssssss: you can just get rid of efi and use legacy, but i'm not sure if it would be useful to you later or what, plus any repercussions of why your bios wont see your drive | 23:59 |
| Gothicspeaker | Is linux the only operating system becoming worse if you upgrade it? | 23:59 |
| Gothicspeaker | I have version 14 and I can't even use Flash player in a normal way | 23:59 |
| Gothicspeaker | How am I supposed to work normally at websites in this way? | 23:59 |
