| Savenport | ikonia: Nope. It was working last night and isn't working now. Didn't do any update/upgrades since then. | 00:00 |
| ikonia | Savenport: have a look in /var/log at the Xorg log | 00:00 |
| ikonia | Savenport: look for EE entries | 00:00 |
| Savenport | ikonia: I'll take a look, thanks! | 00:00 |
| kaz_ | ikonia: kazblox@LinuxPC:~$ sudo mkdir /tmp | 00:00 |

| rypervenche | kaz_: sudo chmod 1777 /tmp | 00:03 |
| Savenport | ikonia: There's an error line "Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration". Any idea what that might mean off-hand? | 00:04 |
| rypervenche | kaz_: Don't go deleting things like that. | 00:04 |
| ikonia | Savenport: can you get say 10 lines above that and 10 lines bellow it and paste it all into a pastebin please. | 00:04 |
| kaz_ | But I couldn't wipe out the stuff in tmp folder | 00:04 |
| kaz_ | so I had to | 00:04 |
| Savenport | ikonia: I'll try. Know of any command-line tool for pasting to pastebin? :P I'm terrible with lynx... | 00:05 |
| ikonia | pastebinit | 00:05 |
| ikonia | sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 00:05 |
| rypervenche | kaz_: You're not supposed to be wiping everything from /tmp ... | 00:05 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Awesome, thanks so much | 00:05 |
| ikonia | Savenport: also install gpm - it will allow you to use your mouse in the terminal | 00:05 |
| rypervenche | kaz_: I'd fix your permissions then reboot | 00:06 |

| kriskropd | I accidentally stopped a do-release-upgrade in the middle of reconfiguring samba on an LTS box - the machine thinks it is running the latest stable LTS now, however about 60 packages now have errors within them and I don't know how to fix them - I've tried 'sudp apt-get update; sudo dpkg --configure -a;sudo apt-get update' but that ends with the last apt-get update failing due to "Processing was halted because there were too many errors." ... | 00:09 |

| === cesar is now known as Guest39079 | ||
| ikonia | Savenport: ok - so I would try to get it to fall back, the first thing I'd do is mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf to my home directory and reboot, this will allow Xorg to try to autodetect (and hopefully fall back to vesa mode) | 00:14 |
| ikonia | Savenport: then you can move forward with a working desktop to fix it | 00:14 |
| Steve_Jobs | looking for a way to monitor and report traffic per process | 00:15 |
| Savenport | ikonia: I'll give that a try, thanks so much for your help! | 00:15 |
| Steve_Jobs | I was running slurm and went away for a bit. I saw that 500MB was downloaded while I stepped away | 00:15 |
| Steve_Jobs | is there a way to get per hour and per day reports? | 00:16 |
| ikonia | monitoring / reporting tools | 00:16 |
| Steve_Jobs | ikonia: yes | 00:16 |
| ikonia | thats the way to do it | 00:16 |
| Steve_Jobs | I would like to keep things simple though | 00:16 |
| Steve_Jobs | ie, I'd rather make my own cron jobs or something | 00:16 |
| ikonia | do that then | 00:17 |
| Steve_Jobs | any ideas how you would do that? | 00:17 |
| ikonia | you can see network info with ifconfig and nettop, just script it | 00:17 |
| Steve_Jobs | iko | 00:17 |
| Steve_Jobs | ikonia: so what would the script look like to capture per hour and per day aggregates for the top 5 processes in network traffic for those periods? | 00:18 |
| ikonia | Steve_Jobs: format it /aggregate it how you feel best meets your needs | 00:18 |
| ikonia | I think it's a waste of time personally monitoring per process network traffic | 00:18 |
| ikonia | (from what you've told me) | 00:18 |
| Steve_Jobs | ikonia: well, I think there is one process that grabbed 500 MB in a very short time | 00:19 |
| Steve_Jobs | I'd like to know if shenanigans like that are happening | 00:19 |
| ikonia | shenanigans ? | 00:19 |
| Steve_Jobs | it's an expression | 00:19 |
| ikonia | if you know 500mb is downloaded you must have an idea of whats done it and why | 00:20 |
| theadmin | ikonia: "shenanigans" ~= "weird stuff" | 00:20 |
| Steve_Jobs | I don't | 00:20 |
| ikonia | Steve_Jobs then how do you know 500mb was downloaded | 00:20 |
| Steve_Jobs | it could be one of the VMs that's running | 00:20 |
| Steve_Jobs | when slurm runs it has a MBytes Received | 00:20 |
| Steve_Jobs | it just displays that | 00:20 |
| Steve_Jobs | there is no way to see what process did that even if I was watching | 00:21 |
| ikonia | how do you know it was 1 process | 00:21 |
| Steve_Jobs | ikonia: I don't know that either. I'm assuming it was | 00:21 |
| ikonia | thats a pretty wild assumption | 00:21 |
| ikonia | and it's sending you off on a witch hunt where there may not a need for one | 00:21 |
| Steve_Jobs | ikonia: well, I'd like to have a report why 0.5GB was downloaded | 00:22 |
| ikonia | then setup monitoring | 00:22 |
| Steve_Jobs | that's what I'm trying to do but in a report manner | 00:22 |
| ikonia | if you're running in VM's you'll find that hard to do | 00:22 |
| Savenport | ikonia: No luck. There are no longer any EE lines in the Xorg log, but it's still doing the same thing. Also totally freezes if I try to do service lightdm restart | 00:23 |
| Steve_Jobs | I can start looking at those in more detail and get reports from them | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Steve_Jobs: so it's dropping back each time | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Steve_Jobs: sorry not you | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Savenport: so it's dropping back to a tty | 00:23 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Yup | 00:24 |
| tckbrz | exit | 00:24 |
| ikonia | Savenport: can you pastebin the full xorg log please. | 00:24 |
| dts|pokeball | i have a new editor, and i would like to set it as the default for a certain file type. how can i do this? | 00:25 |
| Savenport | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648385/ | 00:27 |
| tanater | whats the cammand on terminal 2 enable the wireless card? | 00:27 |
| dts|pokeball | ifconfig [interface] up # i think | 00:29 |
| Voyage | Hi, I am using kubuntu but I cannot use wireless. Its disabled. I guess I do not have drivers on my fresh install. How can I fix it? | 00:29 |
| dm7freek | Is there a diff in symlinking to foo as opposed to foo/ ? | 00:30 |
| tanater | it says syntax error | 00:31 |
| ikonia | Savenport: are there lines afer http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648385/ | 00:31 |
| ikonia | oops | 00:31 |
| ikonia | afer 614 | 00:31 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Nope, that's the end of the file | 00:32 |
| Savenport | tanater: Are you actually typing "[interface]" or are you typing the name of an interface (like wlan0)? | 00:32 |
| ikonia | Savenport: I'd suggest trying to force it to vesa | 00:32 |
| tanater | i typed interface | 00:32 |
| ikonia | Savenport: looks like the ati module is actually having a problem, hence the screen warning earlier | 00:32 |
| Savenport | ikonia: How would I go about forcing it to vesa? | 00:33 |
| dts|pokeball | tanater, you need to type the name of the interface | 00:33 |
| ikonia | Savenport: still got the old xorg file ? | 00:33 |
| dts|pokeball | dm7freek, what do you mean? | 00:33 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Yup! | 00:33 |
| Voyage | Hi, I am using kubuntu but I cannot use wireless. Its disabled. I guess I do not have drivers on my fresh install. How can I fix it? | 00:34 |
| ikonia | Savenport: put it back, and swap the line from Driver flgrx to driver vesa | 00:34 |
| Savenport | ikonia: K, I'll try that. Thanks! | 00:34 |
| dm7freek | dts|pokeball: if foo is a dir, `ln -s foo bar` vs. `ln -s foo/ bar` | 00:34 |
| dts|pokeball | dm7freek, no difference | 00:35 |
| dts|pokeball | the / means that it absolutely is a dir is all | 00:35 |
| dts|pokeball | useful for something like cd f*/ versus cd f* | 00:35 |
| dm7freek | dts|pokeball: ah, so there is a small benefit to using / | 00:36 |
| dm7freek | ty | 00:36 |
| dts|pokeball | because cd f* could expand to cd fo # where fo is some file that is not a dir | 00:36 |
| dts|pokeball | np | 00:36 |
| country | hi | 00:39 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Still the same issue :( New Xorg error file is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648423/ Something about a "bound kernel driver" | 00:41 |
| ikonia | Savenport: can I have a look at your current xorg.conf please. | 00:43 |
| Savenport | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648431/ | 00:44 |
| ikonia | Savenport: that should be enough to get it to fall back to vesa | 00:45 |
| ikonia | Savenport: seems to be struggling as it knows the ati module is there, but I don't quite see why thats a problem, never has been before | 00:45 |
| ikonia | I'll have to check it out as I've never seen that behaviour before | 00:45 |
| Savenport | ikonia: From the log, it definitely looks like it's trying. It's now trying to load the vesa module before failing (which it wasn't before) | 00:46 |
| ikonia | Savenport: you could try removing the ati package - although thats like cracking a nut with a hammer | 00:46 |
| ikonia | a bit agressive, but it maybe a quick fixer, as I'll need to research the ati module behaviour | 00:46 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Worth a try! Any chance you happen to know how I'd do that? I assume I'd need to figure out the name of the package and then use apt to remove it | 00:47 |
| ikonia | Savenport: apt-get purge $package | 00:47 |
| ikonia | Savenport: dpkg -l | grep -i ati | 00:47 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Awesome, thanks | 00:47 |
| nmatrix9 | daftykins, You know how to make a directory world readable with smbclient? | 00:47 |
| ikonia | Savenport: dpkg -l | grep http://paste.ubuntu.com/9648431/ | 00:47 |
| ikonia | oops | 00:47 |
| ikonia | Savenport: dpkg -l | grep fglrx | 00:48 |
| ikonia | Savenport: that should give you an idea on the packages you have installed that could be rmeoved | 00:48 |
| Savenport | ikonia: Would it just be the xorg wrapper for the driver? I'm not seeing a package for the driver itself | 00:48 |
| ikonia | Savenport: annoyingly I don't know the package name off the top of my head | 00:49 |
| ikonia | Savenport: I'd just be guessing, sorry | 00:49 |
| Savenport | ikonia: K, I'll spend some time seeing if I can figure it out. Thanks for all your help :) | 00:49 |
| ikonia | Savenport: no problem, looks like I need to do some research | 00:49 |
| Bashing-om | Savenport: Only a thought, as I too see nothing real real wrong: maybe, the X-server version was updated to a newer version that is now incompatible with the HD 2x/3x/4x series AMD cards. What returns; Terminal command -> X -version <- to determine the x-server version . | 00:53 |

| revo_ | do i need to install any antivirus in ubuntu...to be able to use personal information...like purchasing, ebay, paypal, etc... ??? | 01:06 |
| k1l | revo_: the security is not based on having a antivirus program running. | 01:07 |
| goliath | revo_: As long as you dont download programs from a third party source, you should be good | 01:07 |
| goliath | revo_: E.G: Only download Firefox from the official firefox website | 01:07 |
| revo_ | so how do i set my system so it doesnt download for 3rd parties, etc... | 01:07 |
| k1l | revo_: its you to not loading 3rd party stuff. | 01:08 |
| goliath | revo_: Exact... Only download from official sites | 01:08 |
| revo_ | so from software&update centre, i beleive there is something like 3rd party or canical software | 01:09 |

| sivik | clamav | 01:16 |
| netf0x | goliath, Sorry I meant the Editor from GitHub http://atom.io | 01:16 |
| k1l | revo_: no, there is no virus scan for linux. the security is that you dont run stuff that you dont know its safe. | 01:16 |
| sivik | kll there is a virus scanner for linux | 01:17 |
| sivik | clamav | 01:17 |
| k1l | sivik: it doenst scan for linux viruses :) | 01:17 |

| revo_ | newbie m8 | 01:18 |
| revo_ | what commands should i use ??? | 01:18 |
| goliath | revo_: OMG dude don't be paranoid.. There's no viruses on your system. For how long have you been using linux? | 01:18 |
| k1l | revo_: no. like i said: dont install stuff from other websites or from PPAs if you dont know what they actually do. | 01:19 |
| revo_ | 1 week | 01:19 |
| revo_ | goliath, 1 week | 01:19 |
| sivik | revo_, try this https://rootkit.nl/software/rootkit-hunter/ | 01:19 |
| k1l | revo_: the stuff from the official ubuntu repo is safe. so you should stick to it first. | 01:19 |
| goliath | revo_: I'm 99.9% sure that nothing bad is running on your system | 01:19 |
| Stanley00 | !virus | revo_ | 01:19 |
| ubottu | revo_: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 01:19 |
| sivik | revo_, i agree with goliath | 01:19 |
| goliath | revo_: k1l is right | 01:20 |
| revo_ | k1l, so try what sivikhas sent <yes/no> | 01:20 |
| goliath | brb guys | 01:20 |
| k1l | revo_: rkhunter is a tool for advanced users. you will not be able to use it in a way it tells you if something malicious is going on. | 01:21 |
| revo_ | man, hate not understanding about this OS | 01:22 |
| revo_ | dont want to have to log bck into windows all the time | 01:22 |
| k1l | revo_: its all about you as a user. if you dont load stuff from "a website" and execute it on your system (like the webupdate howto theme thingy you just linked tells you to) you are safe since ubuntu will ship updates for the packages from the official repo when there is a security issue with them. | 01:23 |
| revo_ | ok...one thing that is a must, how do i create a back up partition in this system and then maybe usb image if something goes wrong ??? | 01:23 |
| goliath | revo_: What do you want to back-up? | 01:23 |
| goliath | revo_: k1l Is right again | 01:24 |
| revo_ | goliath, entire system, themes , data, the hole lot | 01:24 |
| k1l | revo_: so its not like on windows where you load malicious stuff from everywhere and blame the antivirus program not recognising it, on ubuntu its you use your brain to not load malicious stuff in the first place | 01:24 |
| revo_ | k1l, point taken..thx | 01:24 |
| goliath | revo_: http://www.linuxlinks.com/article/20090105114152803/Backup.html | 01:25 |

| revo_ | sorry just to be sure | 01:29 |
| goliath | revo_: You need to change the "Y" in sdx for the number of your partition | 01:30 |

| EriC^^ | revo_: how big is the usb? | 01:32 |
| Dark | algum br | 01:32 |
| revo_ | EriC^^, jsut unmounted | 01:32 |
| Bashing-om | revo_: You my friend are letting Windows paranoia get to you. This is not windows. There is no 'real' need to back up your sytem. You backup personal files - (any system files you have edited, maybe ). In the event of catastrophic failure then (RE-)install and copy your files back. I have been committed to ubuntu since release 9.04 and have never ever had a need to do else . | 01:32 |

| Dark | alguem é brasileiro | 01:33 |

| Stanley00 | Tenkawa: you can look at here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 01:34 |
| Bashing-om | revo_: I understand, simple is back up files and (RE-)install .. YOU will loose nothing .. system files are system files. There is absolutely no need to copy system files that are on the install medium . | 01:34 |

| matschaffer | lolWatHehOk: is this more newbie than where you are? http://www.codecademy.com/blog/72-getting-comfortable-in-the-terminal-linux | 01:39 |

| revo_ | EriC^^, yes can get that, but need to partition drive | 01:39 |
| daftykins | nmatrix9: with the user and pass you were trying previously? | 01:39 |

| nmatrix9 | daftykins, I logged in as root | 01:39 |
| EriC^^ | revo_: ok, if you know what you're doing though | 01:39 |
| Bashing-om | revo_: Again, no . your 'rescue disk is that liveDVD . In 'buntu with time effort and a liveDVD it is all fixable. Many times however is quicker and easier to just (RE-)install . You will learn that all that is needed is to back up personal fioles and keep a "change Log" of all edits that you make to the initial install . IF one installs lots of additional packages there are tools in the package management system to make the (RE-)install seamles | 01:39 |
| daftykins | nmatrix9: into what? | 01:39 |

| Linxcat | what else actually runs when you boot into console mode? do the services start or you have to start them? will my internet connect automatically or i have to run it through the console? | 02:05 |
| EriC^^ | Linxcat: console mode? | 02:06 |
| Linxcat | EriC^^: without GUI | 02:06 |
| EriC^^ | Linxcat: you mean adding text in grub? | 02:06 |
| k1l | everything runs, that is not dependend on the desktop. so automount will not work since its done by the file browser etc. | 02:06 |
| Linxcat | k1l: what about networking? | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | Linxcat: how are you arriving at console mode? | 02:07 |
| k1l | Linxcat: is this a server or is it a desktop just boooted into console? | 02:08 |
| k1l | if lightdm is not triggered there will be no network if its done by networkmanager. | 02:08 |
| Linxcat | kil: desktop. i am in GUI environment. I am just asking because i want to boot into console mode and run just in console mode with multiple screens | 02:09 |
| k1l | you can setup network in /etc/interfaces if you want to be sure. but networkmanager got some cli stuff | 02:12 |
| skao | Linxcat: is it just for experimenting around, or are you trying to achieve with console mode? | 02:12 |
| goliath | Linxcat: When you boot, just do Ctrl+Alt+F1 and proceed in console mode? | 02:13 |
| Linxcat | skao: experimenting. im am slowly beginning to like terminals's power :) | 02:13 |
| k1l | Linxcat: i would just let it boot to lightdm and then ctrl+alt+f1 | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | Linxcat: if you add "text" to your kernel line it should boot to a tty and you'll have network manager | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | i'd go with k1l 's suggestion though | 02:15 |
| Linxcat | tty=text telephone? | 02:15 |
| EriC^^ | as you'll be bored in an hour | 02:15 |

| aFeijo_ | hi folks, I mounted a webdav (box.com) account, I can create a file, save it, delete using vim. But it wont work for copying files! I try with cp and scp, it return an error: input/output error, what can I do? | 02:23 |
| Linxcat | dont i just need to "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" when i log into console mode for setup my network? | 02:24 |
| Linxcat | everything should be already in that script | 02:25 |
| daftykins | Linxcat: that hasn't worked right for years. | 02:25 |
| Linxcat | lol | 02:25 |
| daftykins | script? do you mean /etc/network/interfaces ? | 02:26 |
| clockwork_ | Hello | 02:27 |
| Linxcat | daftykins: no i mean /etc/init.d/networking. its a script that, from what i understand, setups up the networking | 02:27 |
| daftykins | well no, it applies what's in the config files (the one i mentioned above) | 02:28 |
| daftykins | but it only really works at boot | 02:28 |
| clockwork_ | Is anyone here familiar with Virtualbox VRDE? I already checked the #vbox channel and it's dead. | 02:28 |
| daftykins | so dead channels makes it an ubuntu question? :) | 02:29 |
| clockwork_ | Well I am on ubuntu | 02:30 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: just ask your question, and try if you are lucky :3 | 02:31 |
| clockwork_ | I've asked, no responses at all, just people logging on and off the channel | 02:31 |
| clockwork_ | so it's alive, but everyone is mute it seems | 02:31 |
| daftykins | might be something to do with the time of year | 02:31 |
| clockwork_ | Maybe | 02:32 |
| daftykins | but yeah so far you've only asked if anyone's familiar with it, might as well ask the *actual* question | 02:32 |
| clockwork_ | Okay then | 02:32 |
| clockwork_ | I have enabled VRDE in virtualbox and assigned it's IP to my internal IP with the port beeing 25565, I try and connect through rdesktop and i'll get a window opening but then it disconnects. | 02:34 |
| clockwork_ | I've tried numerous solutions and nothing has helped | 02:34 |
| clockwork_ | Do any of you know what I might be doing wrong here? | 02:34 |
| daftykins | do you mean you gave a VM an IP on your physical LAN? | 02:35 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: you connect from the same host or from other host? what kind of authencation? and did you install vbox extension? | 02:35 |
| === charles_ is now known as Guest89755 | ||
| clockwork_ | I assigned it to an IP on my LAN, I haven't portfowarded it yet, the authentication type is external and I have vbox extension, I even checked using "VBoxManager list ext"" | 02:37 |
| === Guest89755 is now known as charlesgiii | ||
| daftykins | so it responds to ping? | 02:37 |
| clockwork_ | It does respond to my ping | 02:37 |
| daftykins | ok so it's there at least | 02:37 |
| daftykins | why would port forwards have any relevance here? | 02:37 |
| daftykins | if you're connecting locally | 02:37 |
| clockwork_ | locally is just for testing purposes, later i will be portfowarding to access the VM on the go. | 02:38 |
| mike802 | http://mike802.blogspot.com/2014/12/stuck.html | 02:38 |
| clockwork_ | but still, i don't know why I mentioned that. :? | 02:38 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: what kind of network connection did you use? bridge or nat? | 02:38 |
| clockwork_ | I'm using NAT | 02:39 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: I think that the problem, nat is only visible to your host, not entry lan network | 02:39 |
| daftykins | why NAT? why not bridged networking? | 02:39 |
| daftykins | you can't give the VM an IP on your physical network if you're NAT'ing 0o | 02:39 |
| daftykins | https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch07.html#vbox-auth | 02:40 |
| clockwork_ | for some odd reason the VM isn't liking me using a bridged adapter, it's worked on my other computer but not this one. | 02:40 |
| daftykins | well NAT is going to land you in a whole host of trouble, so solve that first | 02:41 |
| daftykins | no pun intended on the 'host of trouble' - ugh i need to get this seen to | 02:41 |
| clockwork_ | Okay, i'll be back whenever I fix the Network issue | 02:41 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: just one though, if you still want to use nat, you can port forward too, then connect from outside using your host ip | 02:44 |
| === _Nectar is now known as pyr0 | ||
| clockwork_ | Stanley, so if I wanted to I could use nat, but use would be limited to access from computers other than the host? | 02:47 |
| clockwork_ | over the public IP | 02:47 |
| === pyr0 is now known as _pry0 | ||
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: what do you mean? | 02:48 |
| clockwork_ | About what you said | 02:48 |
| clockwork_ | using the NAT adapter, if I portfoward, I can still connect but using only the public IP? | 02:49 |
| clockwork_ | (Sorry, bad with words) | 02:49 |
| === pr30 is now known as pr3p | ||
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: hmm... let have an example. Your guest with ip 10.0.2.15 (NATTED), and your host ip is 192.168.1.10 , then you can forward 192.168.1.10:8080 to 10.0.2.15:9090 (via setting in virtual box), then when you connect from outside (192.168.1.111 for example), to 192.168.1.10:8080 you will be redirect to 10.0.2.15:9090 | 02:51 |
| clockwork_ | Ah, okay. | 02:53 |
| clockwork_ | Stanley00, I'll try that. | 02:53 |
| MacDude | Hello everyone! | 02:57 |
| EriC^^ | hello | 02:57 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: but wait a minute, I think when you remote desktop, your host is the one who listening, so you don't need forward | 02:57 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: did you try connect to your host ip with remote port? | 02:57 |
| MacDude | I have a question about a Google Talk plugin on a Mac. I know it's unrelated to Ubuntu, bought thought someone here could help solve the issue with the Google Talk plugin creating rogue files on the Mac. | 02:58 |
| mike802 | sometimes you have to add your ip to the hosts file, idk | 02:58 |
| MacDude | Exact file being created is GoogleVoiceAndVideoAccelSetup. | 02:59 |
| clockwork_ | Yes, I did | 02:59 |
| clockwork_ | I did connect using the remote port | 03:00 |

| chocolatte | sorry, if this is oot | 03:04 |
| clockwork_ | It's external | 03:04 |
| clockwork_ | if I set it to be guest, it will give me a broken pipe error | 03:04 |
| Stanley00 | clockwork_: and you have an external authencation lib/server/or something like that? | 03:05 |
| clockwork_ | then then on External I get a connection closed | 03:05 |

I can't mount it directly, as it needs to replay a journal which doesn't seem to be valid... and when I run fsck on a copy of the disk image, it doesn't even try to recover my /home directory or some of the folders immediately within, leaving me with a ton of random inodes in lost+found. Is there any other option I have to try to get my directory structure back? Thanks. | 03:29 |

| TommyT2 | @daftykins thanks | 04:11 |

| basil1x | What's digitalocean when it's at home? | 04:18 |
| andlabs|2 | ok third question then: can I use something like spinrite to try to fix this hard drive so I can get those remaining 64kb back | 04:18 |
| daftykins | basil1x: VPS provider | 04:19 |
| sam_cnet | any bots in this channel> | 04:20 |
| EiEiOhh | 14.04. I've set up a static IP but I cant set it to automatically connect. I must click on the network connection name in order to connect | 04:20 |
| daftykins | andlabs|2: spinrite is a total joke, what happened exactly? few bad sectors? | 04:20 |
| daftykins | EiEiOhh: i think you edit the profile and set it to start that automatically | 04:20 |
| daftykins | via a tickbox perhaps | 04:21 |
| basil1x | AH. Ta. | 04:22 |
| andlabs|2 | daftykins: a few bad sectors, yes; but enough to have a corrupt journal and my personal home folder's entry be nulled out (seemingly; I don't buy it though...) | 04:22 |
| daftykins | andlabs|2: not one of those sitations where you can mess with backup superblocks and the like, then? the volume mounts? | 04:23 |
| EiEiOhh | daftykins, General tab - Auto connect when avail & All users may connect. IPv4 tab method - Manual but when I change it automatic DHCP or Automatic DHCP addresses only, my address disappears | 04:24 |
| daftykins | well yeah because DHCP means 'get it from the router' | 04:25 |
| daftykins | i'm not sure what you're confused by there? | 04:25 |
| daftykins | if this is a desktop with a wired interface you want to keep static, just bypass network manager entirely by setting up the interface in /etc/network/interfaces - remove resolvconf and statically define your nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf | 04:26 |
| EiEiOhh | doh.. right.. that tab will assign IP address.. | 04:26 |
| andlabs|3 | daftykins: the volume does not mount without fsck, which leads to the lost+found mess because of the missing /home/pietro entry | 04:26 |
| andlabs|3 | if there was a way to find out /what/ got damaged given the ddrescue log, that would be great | 04:26 |
| daftykins | andlabs|3: tried testdisk instead? i don't know anything about it mind you | 04:27 |
| andlabs|3 | daftykins: I can try that; does it have a read-only option or will I need to provide it a rewritable partition image | 04:28 |
| daftykins | no idea i'm afraid | 04:29 |
| daftykins | not sure of its' capabilities | 04:29 |

| modelengine | hello all, for the past few months online vids have been choppy/stutter every now and then when my wife watches vids on HGTV.com. this also seems to effect Youtube | 04:59 |

| Chuck_Norris | sujata: right click on it > Extract here | 05:00 |
| daftykins | modelengine: browser? | 05:00 |
| modelengine | Airia: yeah, i did that, also went into firefox about config and disabled OOPP | 05:01 |
| modelengine | or rather plugin container | 05:01 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9492325/ | 05:01 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: why paste bin? ppl have always asked me to do it, but what does it do? np doing that just curious | 05:02 |
| sujata | chuck norris: thanx | 05:02 |
| Chuck_Norris | sujata: np | 05:03 |
| sh1n3 | lol | 05:04 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: ? | 05:04 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: becouse that command doesn't fit in one line in irssi at 1080p so, in the paste it is in one line, so you can copy and paste into your terminal easyly | 05:04 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: ahhh....thank you so, somehow paste bin makes it fit nicer and neater in the irc channel | 05:05 |

| daftykins | nautilus? 0o | 05:08 |
| crazyhorse18 | daftykins, it doens't do it | 05:08 |
| crazyhorse18 | need to get out of the exif-metadata | 05:08 |
| daftykins | it doesn't allow sort by date created and thumbnail view? | 05:08 |
| crazyhorse18 | date-created != date photo taken | 05:08 |
| Chuck_Norris | sujata: idk | 05:08 |
| daftykins | alright be awkward then! :D | 05:09 |
| crazyhorse18 | it's a pity you can't just add it to a column.. i used a plugin before.. but it made nautilus incredibly slow | 05:09 |
| Chuck_Norris | sujata: but googling says that it is like a "data base" maybe with mysql you can read that kind of files but... | 05:10 |

| daftykins | yeah don't repeat like that, it's spammy | 05:20 |
| modelengine | yeah, i just forgot to put ur handle in there too | 05:21 |
| daftykins | i'm not familiar with that site and i won't check it out, but if youtube is playing up have you tried removing the flash player and tested the HTML5 player? | 05:21 |
| modelengine | i'm sorry but i didnt put a site in. | 05:21 |
| daftykins | what? | 05:22 |
| modelengine | oh, my gosh forgive me i understand now | 05:22 |
| sujata | chuck norris: i will go to alis channel | 05:22 |
| modelengine | daftykins: no i haven't. so i should just remove it thru firefox or through ubuntu soft cent? | 05:22 |
| daftykins | "it" ? | 05:23 |
| modelengine | sorry, the flash player | 05:23 |
| daftykins | yeah remove the package, might work | 05:23 |
| daftykins | or disable it | 05:23 |
| daftykins | whichever works for you :D | 05:23 |
| modelengine | daftykins: how to test html5 player? | 05:24 |
| daftykins | 1) disable flash 2) visit youtube 3) test away | 05:24 |
| === thomas is now known as evilthomas | ||
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: http://youtube.com/html5 | 05:24 |
| modelengine | but doesn't youtube run off flash. if i disable it how will i see vid? | 05:24 |
| daftykins | also, are you using nouveau or the nvidia proprietary drivers? | 05:24 |
| daftykins | modelengine: *facepalm* HTML5 player will kick in without flash present | 05:24 |
| ghost562 | hello folks, im on 14.04 and i want to go from using lightdm to gmd or kdm, how do i go upon doing that? | 05:25 |
| modelengine | daftykins: oh....lol yeah facepalm | 05:25 |
| === kitten is now known as evilkitten | ||
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: click on the button: "Request html5" | 05:25 |
| modelengine | daftykins: i will check drivers right now. also can you recommend me a less buggy browser? | 05:25 |
| daftykins | there's nothing buggy about firefox | 05:26 |
| daftykins | there's a bit of a... situation right now with flash and Linux though, so tough times lie ahead | 05:26 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: are you useing the privative driver from nvidia? | 05:28 |
| daftykins | i asked that already | 05:28 |
| modelengine | daftykins: and Chuck_Norris: used html5, which is now default, fixed youtube lag issues | 05:28 |
| modelengine | checking drivers now | 05:29 |
| Chuck_Norris | cool | 05:29 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: and daftykins: i couldn't fig out which driver using so took a screen shot. here it is: http://imgur.com/H8A75NZ | 05:31 |
| Chuck_Norris | ok, then it is the one from nvidia, it's ok, its perform best | 05:32 |
| daftykins | nvidia-304, mm. | 05:33 |
| daftykins | you could always try newer | 05:33 |
| Chuck_Norris | *even though, open comunity should support open driver but...* | 05:34 |
| modelengine | i tried the newest one in the beginning and it screwed up my whole system really badly. to a point where i couldn't even get a gui to load in the shell to diag probs | 05:35 |
| Chuck_Norris | it's 304 becouse it is legacy i think | 05:35 |
| Chuck_Norris | yeah, a newer driver could black the screen so on and so forth | 05:35 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: do i have to go 'download as text' and then copy and paste or can i just do it like i have been and you will still be able to read it via irssi? | 05:36 |
| daftykins | i don't know if a gt430 is | 05:36 |
| modelengine | yeah it caused real probs for me so i carefully researched this driver before installing. | 05:37 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: just copy and paste the command, even though, youtube it is working fine, you can leave it as it | 05:37 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: so i should leave it at html5 and not go back to other flash? | 05:38 |
| Chuck_Norris | there is a rule in computer science: "If it work, dont touch it" or something like that :p | 05:38 |
| modelengine | Chuck_Norris: lol :) | 05:38 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: xD | 05:38 |
| modelengine | from what i can tell, it seems to be adobe flash that is the common thread | 05:39 |
| modelengine | daftykins: and Chuck_Norris: thanks for the help1 | 05:39 |
| modelengine | oops meant: ! | 05:39 |
| Chuck_Norris | oh! yeah, since i start using computers, adobe flash was always a common failure | 05:40 |
| Chuck_Norris | modelengine: np | 05:40 |
| modelengine | from what i can remember flash has been having these probs for years and years | 05:40 |
| modelengine | what gives? | 05:40 |
| Chuck_Norris | yeah! security related issues and everything | 05:41 |
| modelengine | well i gtg but thank you all! and happy new year | 05:41 |

| Australopithecus | from a quick google search | 06:56 |
| EriC^^ | Australopithecus: did you check dmesg? | 06:56 |
| Australopithecus | no how would I do that? | 06:56 |

| BlackStar10 | Oh ok support for what | 06:59 |
| lotuspsychje | BlackStar10: ubuntu support problems | 06:59 |
| Australopithecus | @lotuspsychje so I should just sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime | 07:00 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: yes i would start there, if your card is really an optimus | 07:00 |
| lotuspsychje | !info nvidia-prime | Australopithecus | 07:00 |

| Australopithecus | it probably isnt | 07:10 |
| daftykins | that card has nothing to do with optimus | 07:11 |
| Australopithecus | yeah | 07:11 |
| daftykins | the core 2 duo didn't have onboard graphics, so it's discrete only :) | 07:11 |
| daftykins | nn \o | 07:11 |
| Australopithecus | they did | 07:11 |
| daftykins | maybe via chipset, not on-die | 07:11 |
| Australopithecus | this thing has a shitty amd onboard graphic card | 07:11 |
| Australopithecus | oh fair enough | 07:11 |
| daftykins | hrmm, see if it freezes when you use that? worth a go | 07:12 |

| sherlock_regus | jython?? | 07:16 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe its compiz crashing on his 'older' card | 07:18 |
| Australopithecus | cat /var/log/syslog gives pastebin.com/7QQRJxbV | 07:19 |
| lotuspsychje | i dont see anything weird at first sight | 07:20 |
| Australopithecus | I reset my computer would that have messed up the log | 07:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: did you try other drivers yet, from additional drivers list? | 07:21 |
| jimmyd | I thiught drivers were for windows?? | 07:22 |
| Australopithecus | drivers are just what allow your operating system to interface with hardware | 07:22 |
| Australopithecus | from my understanding | 07:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: could try a switch from drivers, or install ccsm and disable active blur | 07:23 |
| Australopithecus | the problem with these crashes is they are hard to recreate | 07:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: did any other ubuntu ever work on this machine? | 07:23 |
| Australopithecus | yes I have been running ubuntu since like 6.0 on it lol | 07:24 |

| Australopithecus | ok | 07:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: update system fully and see if that helps | 07:25 |

| lotuspsychje | i still use an old amd 3200+ with ati x800 fast as rocket here | 07:32 |
| rzeka | I am about to set automatic backups on server but I'm wondering. Is it better to connect to target machine from source or to source from target. In 1st case, when I have 3 different sources, I cannot tell if previous backup is done so I might get 2 backups running at the same time. In 2nd method, if backup server is hacked anyone may get access to other servers with ease (login through ssh keys) | 07:32 |
| cfhowlett_ | !server | rzeka | 07:32 |
| ubottu | rzeka: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI.

| rzeka | ha, thanks | 07:33 |
| Australopithecus | it runs pretty fast I dont think I need to switch to a lightweight distro | 07:33 |
| lotuspsychje | i dont think so neither | 07:33 |
| EriC^^ | Australopithecus: when it's running check "top" | 07:33 |
| Australopithecus | what do you mean by "top" EriC^^? | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | i would start over fresh cable/updates on then switch drivers if it keeps freezing | 07:34 |
| EriC^^ | it's a command that shows the processes with highest usage on top | 07:34 |
| Australopithecus | oh so like a terminal process manager | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:35 |
| lotuspsychje | Australopithecus: can you remember what driver module loaded on your previous working ubuntu versions? | 07:35 |
| Australopithecus | no clue im using X.Org X server | 07:36 |
| Australopithecus | atm | 07:36 |
| Australopithecus | as the driver for my graphics card | 07:37 |
| lotuspsychje | try some other grafix drivers in your list, to test the freezes | 07:37 |
| Australopithecus | Xorg , then compiz and plugin-con+ are all some of the top running processes when running top | 07:38 |
| === html is now known as neebs | ||
| Australopithecus | firefox is of course the top process | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | im out, happy newyear to all! | 07:39 |
| Australopithecus | ok ok thanks for the help | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | np | 07:39 |
| Australopithecus | Im going to just try what you guys suggested mess with drivers and turn off active blurr | 07:39 |
| Australopithecus | if freezing keeps occuring if I can get a good log of the crash I will bring it with me back | 07:40 |
| Australopithecus | here | 07:40 |

After several restarts, im experiencing that whenever the pc boots, I see the desktop background and the mouse pointer but no enviroment at all.

| parsnip | Can I make an argument to a shortcut? Like "/usr/bin/konsole mutt" ? | 08:50 |

| dts|pokeball | parsnip, do you mean like just running kmutt executes /usr/bin/konsole mutt?** | 08:52 |
| dts|pokeball | gonna go to bed, so if thats what you were after the answer is alias kmutt="/usr/bin/konsole mutt" | 08:54 |

| sheer | sivik: i'm not sure | 09:59 |
| sheer | 908gb used, contents: nothing | 10:00 |
| sivik | sheer, it might not be mounted properly which would cause the files to now show up right | 10:00 |
| sheer | when i look in properties | 10:00 |
| sheer | how might I fix that? | 10:00 |
| sivik | run the mount command from command line and it should show the file system type | 10:00 |
| sheer | would you tell me the command to type in? I'm new to linux | 10:01 |
| sivik | mount | 10:01 |
| sheer | I type in mount? that can't be it | 10:01 |
| sivik | why can it not be? | 10:01 |
| sheer | i'm only surprised it's that simple | 10:02 |
| sheer | some stuff came up - not sure what to do with this info | 10:02 |
| Guest17808 | cfhowlett_: ah, not finding which ones can't be installed any more. I'm interested in finding installed packages which no longer have a source in apt. | 10:02 |
| Sh3r1ff | sheer: type fdisk -l and identify your external hdd and type mount to see if it is mounted or not | 10:03 |

| === mish is now known as Mish_ | ||
| sivik | Sh3r1ff, that works too. I have done it before. | 10:28 |
| Sh3r1ff | HeweloDere: if you don't specify a port, the default port for the protocol is used | 10:28 |
| HeweloDere | And so therefort it should come up with a username and password box? | 10:28 |
| Sh3r1ff | sivik: dev's are getting sloppy allowing behaviour like that :p | 10:29 |
| HeweloDere | therefore * | 10:29 |
| Sh3r1ff | HeweloDere: the connection is refused, so something is blocking the connection, could be software actively blocking it, or could be nothing is listening for the connection | 10:30 |

| shaarad | Hi everyone, I am working on a machine learning based authentication project which I want to set-up and test on Ubuntu. It involves recording keystroke timestamps during password input. Can anyone tell me where lies the code related to this so I can study and modify it? | 10:36 |
| sheer | shaarad: what | 10:37 |
| sheer | are you asking for a keylogger? | 10:37 |
| shaarad | No, really! | 10:37 |
| sheer | no, really. | 10:37 |
| eeee | hi | 10:37 |
| sheer | i'm a noob and everything | 10:37 |
| shaarad | Our project is to test the feasibility of keystroke dynamics. | 10:38 |
| sheer | shaarad: is this a university thing? | 10:38 |
| shaarad | Yes, we tried some machine learning algorithms like neural networks etc. and now we want to test it..that's why. | 10:39 |
| eeee | Since I tried expanding the root file system on my SD card the card is not recognized by Ubuntu anymore. Already restarted the netbook. gparted doesn´t see the card and it does´t show up under fdisk -l anymore. Any help? | 10:39 |
| feurd` | Hi! In order to make the auto-type feature of keepass work, I have to associate a key to the command '/YourPathToKeePass/KeePass.exe --auto-type'. How can I do that with command line? | 10:39 |
| sheer | and you need to.... steal passwords.....why? lol | 10:39 |
| Sh3r1ff | HeweloDere: does "Oh yay!" means it works? :) | 10:39 |
| HeweloDere | Yea. | 10:39 |
| PolishPickers | anyone uses ssd hard drives? | 10:39 |
| sheer | Sh3r1ff: -oh yay! | 10:40 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: a lot do. what is the issue? | 10:40 |
| sheer | that's a negative, not a dash | 10:40 |
| shaarad | it's not stealing..I basically want to record keystroke timings and locally run an algorithm to check the authenticity of user. | 10:40 |
| k1l_ | shaarad: somewhere in lightdm | 10:40 |
| k1l_ | shaarad: logind is used afaik | 10:40 |
| shaarad | I know it sounds like keylogger but its not that. | 10:40 |
| PolishPickers | none so far just one question i got one few days ago should i worry about it? (btw i love it!) | 10:41 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: no, no need to worry | 10:41 |
| PolishPickers | my stepfather asked me if there is a fragmantation and bad sector issues as a regular hard drive | 10:41 |
| sheer | shaarad: well good luck lol | 10:42 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: do you use ubuntu with ext4? | 10:42 |
| PolishPickers | yes | 10:42 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: so you dont have fragmentation issues on ssd or hdd. | 10:42 |
| PolishPickers | how about bad sectors? | 10:43 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: bad sectors can occure due to hardware failure like on hdds too. | 10:43 |
| k1l_ | but in regular use ssds last as long as hdds now: they can break anytime :) | 10:43 |
| eeee | What could be the reason that I can not delete partitions on my SD card? gparted gives a green check mark as if all actions were successfully completed. After I refresh the dvices no change. :( | 10:44 |
| shaarad | sheer, thanks if thats not sarcastic | 10:44 |
| PolishPickers | i got a real good deal i think! on a 240gb ssd hard drive and i just wanted one | 10:44 |
| sheer | shaarad: it's not, u nless it should be, and i don't know if it should be ;) | 10:44 |
| k1l_ | PolishPickers: dont worry. just use | 10:44 |

| === ActionParsnip1 is now known as actionparsnip | ||

| sheer | i'm trying to turn things around | 10:57 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: or is the data disposable and unimportant? | 10:57 |
| sheer | things as they were, were not good | 10:58 |
| sheer | most of it is. i'm not sure what i had on there | 10:58 |
| sheer | the large bulk of the data were disposable movies | 10:58 |
| sivik | I bet you can recover it | 10:58 |
| sivik | Don't throw it away | 10:58 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: can you see why a backup is good now? | 10:58 |
| sivik | sheer, you need to plug it in, unmount it, then run the file system check on it | 10:59 |
| sheer | actionparsnip i've always known, man | 10:59 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: a 1Tb drive costs very little and allows you to easily recover data | 10:59 |
| ganimede | hello folks. I have just got a strikeTE keyboard, but it needs configuration under ubuntu (14.04lte), otherwise it freezes my mouse (ratTE, that I have already configured so that ubuntu ignores the extra buttons). Any idea what to set in the .conf file please? thank you | 10:59 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: so if you know..why is there no second copy..? | 10:59 |
| sheer | actionparsnip things were not good as they were | 11:00 |
| sheer | and i am trying to turn things around | 11:00 |
| sheer | yesterday i burnt a word document to a dvd | 11:00 |
| sheer | that is where i'm at -_- | 11:00 |
| sivik | dvd, people still use those? I would have just uploaded to dropbox or google drive | 11:00 |
| sheer | yeah, i'm stuck between wanting privacy and convenience | 11:01 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: but you had no backup so they weren't. Relying on a single storage is far from wise, especially if it warrants effort to restore the data. It's mindless | 11:01 |
| shaarad | sheer, I have another question if you don't mind. | 11:01 |
| sheer | go on | 11:01 |
| sheer | not my channel shaarad | 11:01 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: try it in the mac. You may need a windows PC as NTFS is proprietary to Microsoft | 11:02 |
| sheer | it's NTFS | 11:02 |
| sheer | and nothing showed up on the mac | 11:02 |
| sheer | as with here | 11:02 |
| sivik | i bet its just some sort of ntfs lock or some mess | 11:02 |
| shaarad | Okay, for everyone then. I browsed the lightdm code, but it has a lot of GUI code like vala files and all. Can you point me to the terminal login? | 11:02 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: do you use safe removal before unplugging the storage when you are finished with it or do you just yank it out? | 11:03 |
| sivik | I bet he yanked it | 11:04 |
| actionparsnip | shaarad: press CTRL + ALT + F1 | 11:04 |
| k1l_ | shaarad: as i said, logind is used for the login. lightdm triggers just the login since its the log in screen | 11:04 |
| sheer | i safe removed | 11:04 |
| sheer | and this happened possibly in an accidental non safe removal | 11:04 |
| sheer | i don't yank it. | 11:04 |
| sivik | You need to boot into windows and try to mount and unmount again | 11:04 |
| shaarad | actionparsnip, I know, I wanted to see the code that does it.. | 11:04 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: then I'd find a buddy with Windows and run a chkdsk | 11:04 |
| actionparsnip | shaarad: that does what? | 11:04 |
| shaarad | okay k1l_ maybe logind is my thing then..I will check that out | 11:05 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest42502 | ||
| shaarad | actionparsnip, I want to modify it to run some authentication algorithm in addition to normal login | 11:06 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: foremost my be able to recover files but I'm unsure if it can access NTFS. If it can, you will need a writable partition of equal or greater volume than the drive | 11:06 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: if you use foremost the result files will lost folder and filename data but files may be recovered | 11:07 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: the Windows PC method may remove the need for all that though | 11:07 |
| sheer | actionparsnip so I should run chkdsk on a PC | 11:08 |
| sheer | what happens after i run that? | 11:09 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: yes. Chkdsk is a windows command, in Windows | 11:09 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: it will verify the data and straighten it out if needed. You can then safe remove the drive and it will work as expected | 11:10 |
| sheer | oh i hope so! | 11:11 |
| sheer | actionparsnip is it possible to allow for a windows partition after an ubuntu has been installed already? | 11:12 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: I suggest you look into a backup regime | 11:12 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: if you mean to dual boot then yes | 11:12 |
| sheer | i will do that, actionparsnip | 11:12 |
| sheer | i was thinking to avoid windows completely because i figured WINE would take care of any windows needs | 11:13 |
| sivik | I don't think you are ready to go fully away from windows sheer | 11:13 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: you will need to use Ubuntu lived or similar to resize the Ext4 partition to make space for the Windows installer to use | 11:13 |
| actionparsnip | sheer: you will also need to reinstate Grub to the MAR as the Windows installer will blindly overwrite what is there with its own junk | 11:14 |

| MonkeyDust | Zergling316 better ask in ##winehq | 12:45 |
| cfhowlett | Zergling316, why would you even ask that here in irc? test it on your box! apt-get purge -s allthejunkyoumentioned. the -s will TEST the command, not execute. | 12:45 |

| tunafish | on xubuntu, would sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop do all the magic for me to switch to unity in a safe way? | 14:00 |
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: if your hardware can handle it yes | 14:01 |
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: of course if you like it and runs smooth, its better to install ubuntu desktop fresh | 14:02 |
| shaarad | Hi all, I have downloaded the source of login-utils by sudo apt-get source linux-utils. However, modifying anything in login.c and performing make install doesn't seem to reflect any changes. any ideas why? | 14:03 |
| tunafish | lotuspsychje, thanks. intel t5300 with 3gb ram, I think it can?, but I have a few customizations, like cron scripts and so. It would be quite time consuming. is it really better to install it fresh? | 14:03 |
| === fred_ is now known as Guest92052 | ||
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: that should do it | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: i would go for ubuntu 14.04 fresh yes, cable on and updates on | 14:04 |
| timedifference13 | tunafish: I think it is indeed the best to go for a fresh install. | 14:05 |
| tunafish | lotuspsychje: Let's see how it will work than, I'll instal unity and report back. | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: unity is pretty intuitive once you get used to it | 14:05 |
| shaarad | BluesKaj_, can you help? | 14:05 |
| tunafish | lotuspsychje: I think so, that's why I want to try it, also for title bar integration too. | 14:06 |
| tunafish | Though it is quite disgusting that I have to turn the spyware off. | 14:07 |
| tunafish | I know it is not opt-in but.. | 14:07 |
| lotuspsychje | spyware? | 14:07 |
| tunafish | lotuspsychje: The amazon spyware | 14:07 |
| bekks | Thats no spyware at all. | 14:07 |
| lotuspsychje | tunafish: thats not really spyware, the user gets the choice to enable/disable | 14:07 |
| tunafish | I don't think so,bekks: It captures my text input in search, sends it to amazon, and it doesn't tell me/ask me about what it is doing. There should be a switch on os install, like windows does. | 14:08 |
| tunafish | s/amazon/canocial | 14:08 |
| k1l_ | tunafish: then every browser or android is spyware. you are told its an online search and you can set it off in privacy settings. so do that if you dont like it | 14:09 |
| bekks | tunafish: You have the choice to enable or disable it. So thats no spyware by definition of spyware. | 14:09 |
| ServerSage_Work | That's a pretty loose definition of spyware. Sounds like 90% of apps out there. | 14:09 |
| MonkeyDust | tunafish opinions and discussions in #ubuntu-offtopic, please | 14:09 |

| BluesKaj_ | shaarad, not familiar with login-utils , in't just a meta-package | 14:11 |
| kawax | yo | 14:11 |
| shaarad | meta-package means? | 14:11 |
| k1l_ | tunafish: easiest way: press super, read what written in the search bar. | 14:12 |
| tunafish | k1l_:Thanks, didn't know there is info about it on search. | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj_ | shaarad, i guess it isn't | 14:12 |
| kasad | guys, please tell me that there is solution to bug where wifi stops working after suspend | 14:13 |
| tunafish | shaarad: package that installs other packages, meta package itself doesn't do something. | 14:13 |
| shaarad | Oh! | 14:13 |
| kasad | (with qualcomm wifi cards and just a few others - it's a asus laptop) | 14:13 |
| kasad | because I am about to start crying, seriosly | 14:13 |
| kasad | after polishing everything, delivering, giving lessons to friends mother, coming back on foot at like -15 last evening, I get a call that wifi is not working, then I find out about the bug | 14:14 |
| blasko | hi | 14:14 |
| kasad | hi pls kill me | 14:14 |
| * tunafish kills kasad | 14:15 | |
| blasko | why | 14:15 |
| kasad | because I am so frustrated that I'm gonna cry | 14:15 |
| tunafish | kasad get a new wifi card? ^_^ | 14:15 |
| kasad | promised to friend that Im gonna fix him ubuntu laptop for his mom (and for him when he's there) | 14:15 |
| amph | always look on the bright side of life | 14:16 |
| kasad | finished everything, virtualized his old machine, delivered laptop to his mom last nite, gave her hours of explanations how to use it | 14:16 |
| bekks | kasad: ...and didnt test wifi before? :) | 14:16 |
| kasad | and this morning she calls me and tells me that wifi isn't working, then I find out about this bug | 14:16 |
| kasad | bekks: it works, it goes fubar only if you use suspend | 14:17 |
| kasad | and after that wifi is dead | 14:17 |
| blazkoy | win | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj_ | so you have ubuntu on a VM , that can be troublesome with wifi | 14:17 |
| kasad | I never suspended machine obviosly, I tested wifi | 14:17 |
| kasad | no on vm is his old windows | 14:17 |
| kasad | ubuntu is on host | 14:18 |
| kasad | asus laptop | 14:18 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, which wifi chip? | 14:18 |
| kasad | qualcomm | 14:18 |
| kasad | there are two solutions recommended | 14:18 |
| kasad | neither works | 14:18 |
| kasad | lemme link you the bug, sec | 14:18 |
| bekks | kasad: So the bug appears when you wake up after suspending? | 14:18 |
| BluesKaj_ | old laptop? | 14:19 |
| kasad | yes | 14:19 |
| kasad | and yes, core 2 duo (asus f5rl) | 14:19 |
| bekks | kasad: So the fix is to not suspend :) | 14:19 |
| kasad | yeah, but I can't get it to work now | 14:19 |
| MonkeyDust | that's more a workarond than a solution | 14:20 |
| kasad | yeah, it's not real solution, it's kinda dirty | 14:20 |
| kasad | and it doesn't work in my case | 14:20 |
| dfsgsdfg | cv | 14:20 |
| bekks | kasad: It is your only choice. And not using suspend works perfectly. | 14:21 |

| madani | Happy New Year | 14:23 |
| kasad | on mine, it connected straight away | 14:24 |
| kasad | maybe it needs to be shutdown for a while, I remember reading somewhere that ppl could only get it working after a long shutdown (go figure) | 14:25 |
| kasad | i am like real life Mr. Bean | 14:27 |
| kasad | situations like this happen to me all the time | 14:27 |
| tunafish | installed unity, yep, I am keeping it. I liked it. | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, on 14.10? | 14:27 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: xubuntu 14.04.1 LTS | 14:28 |
| kasad | but bug applies to ubuntu past 13.10 | 14:29 |
| kasad | as well | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, does network manager see the local wifi networks ? | 14:29 |
| kasad | yes | 14:30 |
| Zergling316 | hello, is it possible to change the fanspeed of an amd graphics card in ubuntu 14.10? | 14:30 |
| kasad | but you can't connect, it says connecting, even asks for wifi pass and then nothing happens | 14:30 |
| === zz_saschpe is now known as saschpe | ||
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, ok , try this, sudo ifconfig wlan0 up, then run sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i essid, your network manager should open and ask for the wpapsk password | 14:32 |
| kasad | ok, seems it starts working again after long shutdown (i brought laptop to my place again) | 14:32 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: ok one sec | 14:32 |
| kasad | yeap | 14:33 |
| Romsl | Hello everybody. I've a question about UEFI: I installed Ubuntu on my system in UEFI-mode and now I have to boot options for Ubuntu. shim64.efi and grub64.efi. And both works! Why do I have two options and why do both work? | 14:34 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: tried disabling it and pops up (I already disabled suspend) I am just afraid that issue will pop up again when I give her laptop back, she is supposed to skype with daughter tonight | 14:34 |
| kasad | (and ofc I couldn't get webcam working) | 14:34 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: thanks for the tip | 14:36 |
| guzzinho | #saab | 14:36 |
| kasad | I am just worried that it will happen again when I give her laptop back (so I disabled suspend) | 14:36 |
| kasad | now trying to replicate bug | 14:37 |
| kasad | just to make sure | 14:37 |
| kasad | and looking into webcam, but don't know where to start really | 14:38 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, I find suspend doesn't successfully reload all the drivers for audio and video software even on 14.10...I haven't investigated the bugs because just shutting doen is practically just as easy as suspend anyway | 14:39 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: agreed, I personally never turn off my machine, except when there is power outage (in which case I usually have to hibernate or risk losing work) | 14:40 |
| kasad | found another bug, closing lid = no more gui, xfce dies | 14:41 |
| bekks | kasad: So dont use suspend :) | 14:41 |
| kasad | I disabled it already | 14:42 |
| === razor-home is now known as razorsharph | ||
| kasad | forgot what was close lid set to, think hibernate, it's all going to be shutdown, wonder if it could be logout and shutdown | 14:42 |
| kasad | because I have save session ticked at logout | 14:42 |
| kasad | so it would be nice to at least give them some ability to preserve open pages / w/e | 14:43 |
| kasad | I figured great way to host domain on dynamic ip for free | 14:44 |
| nedbat | if I set a limit with setrlimit (actually, through Python, but not sure it matters), and the limit is exceeded, what happens to the process? It is killed? Is this logged somewhere? | 14:44 |
| kasad | I feel like sharing so if anyone cares: here's the trick, | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, google talk/hangouts is much easier to use then skype and works fine thru a browser | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj_ | than skype | 14:45 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: agreed, but tell that to 60+ old women | 14:45 |
| BluesKaj_ | kasad, heh, I'm 71 | 14:45 |
| kasad | but you are on IRC | 14:45 |
| kasad | so you don't count :P and I doubt that you are a women, not that i am sexist | 14:46 |
| BluesKaj_ | well, my job background was quite techy so i came using pcs naturally on the job , then at home | 14:47 |
| kasad | she doesn't speak english, her son insisted that I don't install her (x)ubuntu in native language because he wants her to learn english | 14:47 |
| BluesKaj_ | oh my, that will be very frustrating for her ... not a good idea IMO | 14:48 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: figured it was something like that, probably you were working on some IBM mainframe, while I typed my first BASIC lines @ ZX Spectrum 48K (1982/3) (I am 39) | 14:48 |
| Rory | I'm reasonably sure my installation is haunted. When I run "sudo -i", I get the message "The program 'st' is currently not installed." as if it's trying to execute "st", but there's no mention of this in root's .bashrc etc | 14:49 |
| kasad | BluesKaj_: again agreed, so I was kind and set her browser/skype, basically everything she uses in her native language | 14:49 |
| Rory | to be clear, sudo -i works as expected, it's just like it's trying to execute this program | 14:49 |

| kasad | re | 15:30 |
| ganiman | MonkeyDust: yes, I mentioned that it was a server. But those aren't the problems, it's that apt thinks something is locked when it isnt | 15:30 |

| mekhami | how do i completely uninstall wine? | 15:33 |
| mekhami | apt-get remove wine --purge doesn't do anything | 15:33 |
| Novice201y | mekhami: Uninstalling can be dangerous. | 15:33 |
| cfhowlett | mekhami, dpkg -l | grep wine | 15:33 |
| MonkeyDust | ganiman repeat your initial question, i'm out of ideas, maybe someone else can help | 15:34 |
| ganiman | MonkeyDust: thanks, I appreciate your time :) | 15:34 |
| mekhami | cfhowlett, thanks | 15:35 |
| mcphail | mekhami: I think wine is just a metapackage which pulls in the current stable version from a selection in the repos. You might need to uninstall whatever version has been pulled in. | 15:35 |
| mekhami | alright, now that i've uninstalled everything, i hope i can get a working installation going this time -.- | 15:37 |
| mcphail | mekhami: remember to delete your local wine directory if you are trying to start fresh | 15:38 |

| Guest252 | I am going nuts | 15:40 |
| kasad | hi welcome to the club | 15:40 |
| Guest252 | I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 and the fan is running all the time now | 15:41 |
| Guest252 | it does not in win7 | 15:41 |
| kasad | tell us what obscure problem is troubling you, mayb ewe can compete | 15:41 |
| === p1l0t is now known as Guest11991 | ||
| Guest252 | win7...it runs only when im playing games | 15:41 |
| ganiman | Guest252: sounds like you need a driver / kernel module to support that | 15:41 |
| Guest252 | ok...well I have sensors | 15:42 |
| kasad | dell laptop? | 15:42 |
| Guest252 | but I dont know how to get the pwm module working | 15:42 |
| ganiman | Guest252: right, ubuntu probably doesnt know they are there (yet) so it is not controlling your fan for you | 15:42 |
| Guest252 | supposed it has fancontrol | 15:42 |
| Guest252 | toshiba satellite | 15:42 |
| Guest252 | so who is controlling the fan? | 15:43 |
| ganiman | Guest252: have you checked their site for support drivers? maybe they have a deb package for it? | 15:43 |
| Guest252 | ill look into that | 15:43 |
| Guest252 | i mean...is it bad for my laptop if fan runs all the time? | 15:43 |
| ganiman | Guest252: or maybe it's already in the linux kernel, just not enabled for you | 15:43 |
| kasad | tried sensors-detect? and nothing right? | 15:43 |
| Guest252 | sensors-detect tells me I have amd 10h thermal sensors and autoloaded k10temp module | 15:46 |
| Guest252 | but lsmod | grep k10temp shows it is used by 0, ie not loaded??? | 15:47 |

| nedbat | if I set a limit with setrlimit (actually, through Python, but not sure it matters), and the limit is exceeded, what happens to the process? It is killed? Is this logged somewhere? Where would I find information about this? | 15:55 |
| MonkeyDust | kasad still strugling with wifi after suspend? this TLP page mentions wifi power saving, is it useful http://www.maketecheasier.com/improve-power-usage-in-linux-with-tlp/ | 15:56 |
| cpt_yossarian | nedbat: it depends upon the limit being set. look at the setrlimit man page | 15:56 |
| kasad | MonkeyDust: I disabled suspend everywhere, but thanks (struggling with skype, webca works in cheese but not in skype (latest downloaded ffrom site, not one from sources) | 15:57 |
| cpt_yossarian | nedbat: limits are logged in /proc/[pid]/limits on a per-process basis | 15:57 |
| cfhowlett | kasad that should be skype for linux 4.3 right? | 15:58 |
| nedbat | cpt_yossarian: and if the process is killed? Is there a central log that would indicate that? | 15:58 |
| kasad | cfhowlett: yes 4.3.0.37 | 15:58 |
| cfhowlett | :) | 15:59 |
| kasad | cfhowlett: should I downgrade? why you smiling :D | 15:59 |
| cfhowlett | kasad, do NOT downgrade! 4.2 is no disabled and doesn't work! | 15:59 |
| cpt_yossarian | nedbat: the kill messages *might* be under /var/log/kern.log. i haven't checked that, though | 16:00 |

| kasad | MonkeyDust: this is actually pretty useful, if it wasn't new years eve I'd try it out, this way I just want to deliver laptop back asap | 16:01 |
| nedbat | cpt_yossarian: you would expect the kernel to log a message when it sends the signal? | 16:02 |
| EriC^^ | nedbat: i think it's depends on the module | 16:03 |
| nedbat | EriC^^: I'm not sure what you mean by module here. | 16:03 |
| cpt_yossarian | nedbat: that would be my expectation, seeing how it's a syscall and most fatal signals emanating from the kernel are logged | 16:03 |
| kasad | cfhowlett: on xubuntu atm, needed something lighter (friend, his mom, long sad story about me fixing everything delivering laptop at -15 C last night, this morning she calls me and tells me wifi doesn't work turns out there is a bug with suspend and wifi >_> -----> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1286552 | 16:05 |

| FreeMac | Hello everyone! | 17:40 |
| FreeMac | I have a question for installing Ubuntu without rEFIt. Is that possible? | 17:40 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, I take it youre installing on a Mac? | 17:41 |
| nicknamel | I've two Ubuntu systems on my computer. Do you know if grubx64.efi is ALWAYS looking in /boot/efi/EFI/-directory for grub.cfg-file? | 17:41 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Mhmm, that's right. | 17:41 |
| cfhowlett | !mac | FreeMac, short answer: it depends. do your research | 17:41 |
| ubottu | FreeMac, short answer: it depends. do your research: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 17:42 |
| nedbat | does reading /dev/random take longer if the entropy is exhausted? | 17:42 |
| FreeMac | I have, and most "tutorial" sites/ articles show it being done via rEFIt. Can just holding the Option key during boot everytime be sufficient? | 17:43 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, it can be done WITHOUT refit as well. also: more research ... refit is abandonwore. current tool is reFIND | 17:44 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Ah, yes, I've seen that too. Could you perhaps point me in the right direction so I know what to look for? | 17:45 |
| FreeMac | I know that the mac doesn't use BIOS and hence the need for rEFIt/rEFInd. | 17:45 |
| nedbat | oh: /dev/random can block, /dev/urandom won't. | 17:47 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, I'm not a mac/buntu guy. I most just boot it up on the sly at the Apple store. sorry, but ... great firewall of china limits my search abilities. see www.rodsbooks.com for refit/refind goodness. | 17:47 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, I do know that newer macs don't need refind unless you're dual booting | 17:48 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Haha, great firewall of China. Good one. | 17:48 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Yeah, I'm looking to create another partition to dual boot, that's why. Otherwise, I could use some virtualization software, but that's not my optimal solution. A dual boot solution is preferred. The only thing standing in my way is rEFIt/rEFInd. | 17:50 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, refind will be your friend then. hopefully you've got a newer mac to play on. | 17:50 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Yeah, my Mac is relatively new running on latest software. Just wanted to know if I could install Ubuntu without rEFInd. If that's even a possibility? Or is it completely impossible to your best knowledge? | 17:51 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, I think it's possible. if 14.04.1 will boot the UEFI mac, I believe you can skip refind and still dualboot | 17:53 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Cool, do you know how I could do that? Or any resource which may be useful for me? | 17:54 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, easy. download 14.04.1 64 bit .iso. make a boot usb. find a mac. reboot with option key held. select efi/uefi from the choices and boot! | 17:55 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Nice, that was what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch! | 17:55 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, hard to pull this off at the apple store, but I fired up the mac at the local walmart. fun times. | 17:56 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Haha! What computer are you using? | 17:57 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, mac air, macbook and macpro all booted quite nicely | 17:58 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Nice, that's quite a lineup. You're using rEFInd I imagine? | 17:59 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, of course not! as I said; you can boot a LIVE session without the need for refind/fit | 17:59 |
| Guest252 | hi all ...i dont know what is up but im trying to stop my fan from running all the time, i updated my thermald xml file, restarted the daemon and the trigger points still seem to not be working | 18:02 |

| nmatrix9 | Can somebody tell me how do I get smbclient to do a recursive chmod o+r on a directory? | 18:06 |
| ablegreen_w | Hi I would like to run a command with sudo with a keyboard shortcut. I understand sudo asks for the password through the terminal, so I'd need to use gksudo instead for the graphical password prompt. How can I do this without asking for a password at all? | 18:06 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, livesession means running from the usb --- NOT installed. we do this for testing purposes. | 18:06 |
| nmatrix9 | And no chmod o+r -R does not work | 18:06 |
| SchrodingersScat | ablegreen_w: my first instinct says "Please don't do that." | 18:08 |
| cfhowlett | ablegreen_w, this ^^^ | 18:08 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: Oh, I see. Yeah, I'm aware of that, though that does impact performance a bit doesn't it, and you have to keep the USB plugged in taking up USB slots, which in my case kinda sucks since I only have 2 USB ports on my Mac. | 18:08 |
| ablegreen_w | Well I'm using dmenu and whenever I bring it up, sudo doesn't work to launch programs | 18:08 |
| sudormrf | so I got my new SSD yesterday, popped it in and so far the system has been working. but it took the thing a bit of time to fail last time. I reinstalled the OS and had it running for a day or two before it failed. still have the old SSD. if I could get to the syslog on it I could possibly see what happened | 18:09 |
| cfhowlett | FreeMac, it's for testing. and it your system will successfully boot 14.04.1 then you can *possibly* install it WITHOUT refind | 18:09 |
| sudormrf | either the other SSD failed, or the mobo is failing on the computer. went with the SSD first since you can't buy a replacement NUC motherboard XD | 18:09 |
| FreeMac | cfhowlett: I see, thanks for the info. That was very helpful! | 18:10 |
| light94 | ablegreen_w, if you are inclined to do it, you can try the following commands | 18:10 |

| sudormrf | bubbasaures, I was told that we are to avoid PM'ming in this chat as that defeats the purpose | 18:12 |
| cfhowlett | sudormrf, right, right. you should be able to recover the logs ... if you can access the device at all. plug it in, mirror the contents and unplug. then analyze | 18:12 |
| bubbasaures | sudormrf, On getting help yes we like to have it peer reviewed, that's really for your benefit. | 18:13 |
| sudormrf | cfhowlett, yeah, it was still accessible last time I tried to mount it. will pop it in when I get some time and see whats up. | 18:13 |
| cfhowlett | sudormrf, enjoy the ssd | 18:13 |
| sudormrf | bubbasaures, yep. that is why I didn't really want to preface it with a name because there were a few people involved. at any rate, hope this thing works out. | 18:14 |
| sudormrf | cfhowlett, hope I don't have to buy a new NUC :D | 18:14 |

| webflashing | Hi everyone, its my first time here. I recently installed Ubuntu Gnome 14.10. After several restarts, im experiencing that whenever the pc boots, I see the desktop background and the mouse pointer but no enviroment at all. Im able to switch to another tty, but unable to open a terminal from the current one. The only solution is to press Win + L to lock, unclok and then the enviroment appears. Any idea what could be causing this or how can I start inv | 18:42 |
| webflashing | estigating what could be causing this problem? Thanks very much! | 18:42 |
| bubbasaures | webflashing, This the gnome shell desktop install? | 18:44 |
| webflashing | bubbasaures: yes indeed | 18:45 |
| bubbasaures | webflashing, Strange, my guess would be graphic driver and the latest kernel upgrade. | 18:45 |
| bubbasaures | webflashing, I would see if the guest account opens the same way. | 18:46 |
| webflashing | I downloaded the AMD Drivers by going to "Sfotware & Updates" > "Additional Drivers" -> And selecting the option "Using Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators from fglrx (propietary)" | 18:46 |
| webflashing | Altho, I know nothing about the kernel yet, this is my first time with linux | 18:47 |
| webflashing | Oh, and something I forgot to mention, I enabled the system to log in automatically, thats why there is no login screen. | 18:47 |

| gauss | Is it possible to mount an unknown partition in an ubuntu live session? | 19:10 |
| malimbar | atxq, what is the message? | 19:10 |
| malimbar | gauss, I haven't tried it, but it should be | 19:11 |
| gauss | When I try it I receive the message: "mount: block device /dev/sda7 is write-protected, mounting read only | 19:12 |
| gauss | " | 19:12 |
| gauss | and "mount: you must specify the filesystem type" | 19:12 |
| eRespond | I hacker ask me | 19:17 |
| malimbar | gauss, so it is mounting fine, it's just a permissions problem | 19:18 |
| malimbar | gauss, can you just change the permissions to allow it? | 19:19 |
| gauss | Perhaps. I'm a bit of a noob though. Let me look into it. | 19:19 |
| gauss | The partition itself is only 3.81GB. | 19:20 |
| malimbar | sounds like a good learning experience. I'll do a bit of internet browsing to see if I stumble on anything | 19:20 |
| gauss | I'm mostly curious as to what is on this partition. | 19:20 |
| gauss | I have Windows 7 and Linu Mint installed on the laptop. | 19:20 |
| atxq | the screen freezes after login so I cannot print screen. Is there a log file that has additional information about system errors? | 19:20 |
| malimbar | gauss, so you have 3 partitions, and 1 is windows, 1 is mint? | 19:20 |
| gauss | Actually, I have too many. | 19:21 |
| malimbar | how many? | 19:21 |

| malimbar | could be a relic from when you did an install, could be a recovery partition, could be one of windows partitions (I think they do multiple for windows 7), could be who knows | 19:24 |

| Dragonkeeper | hey im on 64 bit ubuntu 14 and need 32bit java, which package name should i install | 19:27 |
| malimbar | install 32 bit java :) | 19:27 |
| Dragonkeeper | which is called ? | 19:27 |
| malimbar | Dragonkeeper, you can get a whole bunch of 32 bit libraries by installing ia32-libs , but I think that's depreciated in favor of just installing individual 32 bit libraries | 19:27 |
| Dragonkeeper | ok o.O | 19:28 |
| Dragonkeeper | malimbar: so whats the 32bit openjdk called lol | 19:28 |
| malimbar | let me see what' sin the software center | 19:28 |
| Dragonkeeper | :) | 19:28 |
| atxq | screen unresponsive after I login to Ubuntu 14.10. is there a command I can run to find out what is causing the problem? | 19:29 |
| atxq | I get a message about flashplugin-installer could not retrieve additional files from the web. | 19:30 |
| malimbar | atxq, the entire screen in unresponsive? or just certain webpages? | 19:31 |
| atxq | uninstalled flashplugin-installer. problem still persists. | 19:31 |
| atxq | entire screen. cannot click anything. | 19:31 |
| malimbar | atxq, that's really weird | 19:31 |
| bubbasaures | atxq, so far none of that makes sense. | 19:31 |
| atxq | I know | 19:32 |
| bubbasaures | than stop | 19:32 |
| atxq | small light blue square top left appears | 19:32 |
| bubbasaures | we can help if you use some basic discovery skills | 19:32 |
| atxq | about 500x200 px | 19:32 |
| malimbar | ok, I gotta focus on the java thing first. Dragonkeeper, I assume you just need the runtime environment? you're not programming or anything...? | 19:33 |
| atxq | how can I fix this issue? reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and unity, but did not help fix the issue | 19:33 |
| Dragonkeeper | nope just need the 32bit runtime , not really used to using ubuntu package system | 19:34 |
| malimbar | I think it's openjdk-8-jre:i386 you're looking for then | 19:34 |
| Dragonkeeper | ok let me try that | 19:34 |
| malimbar | generally just add :i386 to the end of whatever the library is to get the 32 bit version | 19:34 |
| megagiganoob | Hello folks, hoping someone might be able to help. I'm trying to make a distro of xubuntu based on my current setup. I volunteer at a free site to help people learn web development and the idea is to be able to give them an image they can load into a vm and not have to worry about configuration | 19:35 |
| malimbar | atxq, I'm still wondering wtf flash plugin would have to do with your desktop screen | 19:35 |
| bubbasaures | !java | Dragonkeeper | 19:35 |
| ubottu | Dragonkeeper: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 19:35 |
| megagiganoob | I'm going through the livecd customization but I'm at a point I'm not sure what to do. I've installed ruby and git. I'd like to install linuxbrew for node and yeoman so the users don't have to mess with sudo, but I'm unsure where to edit the path | 19:35 |
| bubbasaures | malimbar, no swearing acronyms or swearing here theanks. | 19:35 |
| atxq | that is the last message that I see after unity loads | 19:35 |
| megagiganoob | sorry for the wall of text | 19:35 |
| malimbar | bubbasaures, sorry | 19:35 |
| malimbar | yeah, no idea on that atxq. I'd have to poke around blindly for a while before I got anywhere | 19:36 |
| Dragonkeeper | malimbar: nope that package isnt found | 19:36 |
| atxq | any command I can run to help fihure out the issue? | 19:36 |
| malimbar | atxq, more than I know of. I'd just go to the system monitor first to see what's running, and online searchinga lot | 19:37 |
| malimbar | duckduckgo is great. Or google of course | 19:37 |
| atxq | cannot load anything. screen unresponsive. | 19:38 |
| atxq | google offered no help on this issue | 19:38 |
| malimbar | Dragonkeeper, try openjdk-7-jre:i386 then | 19:38 |
| malimbar | or whatever loads when you type sudo apt-get install op <tab> | 19:38 |
| malimbar | actually press tab, not type it :) | 19:38 |

| malimbar | strange, it worked for me | 19:41 |
| malimbar | what options op up if you tab? | 19:42 |
| Dragonkeeper | if i tab ? | 19:42 |
| malimbar | ie "sudo apt-get install openjdk" then the tab key? | 19:42 |
| Dragonkeeper | malimbar: all the openjdk stuff seems to be there | 19:43 |

| S_SubZero | worenga: I can get the user created, but for whatever reason useradd never creates the home directory. When I try to login as the user, it just throws me back out | 20:28 |
| EriC^^ | S_SubZero: how are you creating it | 20:28 |
| blackangelpr | Guest71531, ali@188.245.130.200 behave! | 20:28 |
| zykotick9 | S_SubZero: i'd suggest adduser instead of useradd YMMV | 20:28 |
| S_SubZero | EriC^^: useradd $USERNAME -c "$FULLNAME" -p $(openssl passwd -1 $PASS) -g $USERNAME -G (same groups the initial user gets) | 20:29 |
| EriC^^ | S_SubZero: you need -m for it to create a home dir | 20:29 |
| andlabs|2 | ah imap | 20:30 |
| andlabs|2 | now I just need to convert the block to a file address... | 20:30 |
| S_SubZero | ah, I'll tryit | 20:30 |
| scientes | how do i install keyboard layouts? | 20:31 |
| scientes | I need IPA | 20:31 |
| blackangelpr | scientes, system settings -> text entry | 20:31 |
| blackangelpr | left colum | 20:31 |
| S_SubZero | ah much better, thx | 20:34 |
| wad | Needing some hints on getting my ubuntu box configured as a gateway, so I'm connected to irc on my phone. We'll see how this works. | 20:35 |
| xcyclist | I guess I can't just install capistrano and look at the man page. Oh well. | 20:36 |
| andlabs|2 | ok reasking now that I have a concrete question | 20:36 |
| andlabs|2 | I have an ext4 partition dump (my previous install's /home partition) made with ddrescue and I want to see if the inode table entry with my /home dir has been damaged. I have the block number - 145752096 - but I want a file address. Is there anything I can do? Thanks. | 20:37 |
| wad | I've edited /etc/network/interfaces for eth0 (wan, dhcp) and eth1 (lan, static ip). Disabled network manager. Enabled ipv4 forwarding. | 20:37 |
| andlabs|2 | er | 20:38 |
| andlabs|2 | I want an address in my disk dump | 20:38 |
| andlabs|2 | is there a better channel for this (onet hat does not require registration to talk?) | 20:38 |
| wad | But on boot, ubuntu fails to get any ip address for eth0. Claims link is not ready. But if I unconfig all the stuff, network manager connects just fine. Ideas, anyone? | 20:40 |
| netcrash | Hello, Just today I was on a system that in df -h did not show any partitions but doing cat /proc/mounts displayed all of them mounted, what could be the problem? | 20:40 |
| EriC^^ | netcrash: have you used sshfs lately | 20:41 |
| ShalokShalom | EriC^^: /bin/sh: not found | 20:41 |
| blackangelpr | wad, did you get sure that static ip you assig was available on your network ? -> inside your router not taken? | 20:41 |
| netcrash | EriC^^: no, why could that be related? | 20:41 |
| EriC^^ | netcrash: if the server is down df will get funky | 20:42 |
| netcrash | EriC^^: that desktop isn't with any mount to a server | 20:42 |
| blackangelpr | wad, http://www.sudo-juice.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-in-ubuntu-the-proper-way/ | 20:42 |
| ikonia | use network manager on the desktop | 20:42 |
| ikonia | that is the proper way | 20:42 |
| wad | Yes, eth0 is dhcp from comcast, eth1 is 192.168.7.1, it is unique. | 20:42 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: ? | 20:43 |

| OerHeks | wad, make sure the 1st Tab in networkmanager 'all users may onnect to this network' enabled | 20:43 |
| Guest71531 | shit | 20:43 |
| ShalokShalom | that is the result | 20:43 |
| ikonia | Guest71531: no need to swear | 20:43 |
| * wad clicks and goes to read, thanks | 20:43 | |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: after rebooting? | 20:43 |
| Guest71531 | shut up bitch | 20:43 |
| netcrash | EriC^^: besides that the system root (/) was full and could not see how to empty it. | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | netcrash: oh | 20:44 |
| netcrash | "empty it" | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | netcrash: do you have a seperate /boot ? | 20:45 |
| wad | Oerheks, but I'm pretty sure I want network manager disabled entirely, right? That's how I had it working on the machine I am replacing. | 20:45 |
| netcrash | EriC^^: what made me loose more time was the fact that the system df -h did not show anything. | 20:45 |
| blackangelpr | wad, normally your ip with .1 at the end are saved for your router .... computer uses something else .2 .3 .4 .100 .150 etc XD depending on your ip range | 20:46 |
| wad | Black, yep, this IS the router. :-) | 20:47 |
| cryptodan | Ive seen routers with .254 as the ending octet | 20:47 |
| blackangelpr | i said normally cryptodan XD | 20:47 |
| wad | This ubuntu box is going to be a router, connecting my comcast wan to my home lan. | 20:48 |
| netcrash | EriC^^: no | 20:48 |
| andlabs|2 | 0x8B00020000 0x00001000 - | 20:48 |
| andlabs|2 | well that answers that | 20:48 |
| andlabs|2 | thanks | 20:48 |
| andlabs|2 | (it's just block number * block size) | 20:48 |
| wad | I'm replacing my old ubuntu router with this new one. | 20:48 |
| andlabs|2 | now I need to figure out some magic to repair bad sectors... | 20:48 |

| ShalokShalom | thanks | 20:53 |
| jhutchins | wad: Using a full-fledged PC is a bit of overkill for a router. dd-wrt on a linksys should be plenty. | 20:54 |
| jhutchins | blackangelpr: By convention the router is usually the first or sometimes the last IP in a subnet, but that's only convention, it can be anywhere in the range. | 20:55 |
| wad | Jhutchins, yeah, it does a bunch of other stuff also. Print server, website host, file server,, etc. | 20:57 |
| cryptodan | wad, so a one stop shop for hackers? | 20:57 |
| wad | Oh it gets lots of breakin attempts. Fail2ban FTW. | 21:00 |
| Qbuo | Hey, how the hell do i connect to my wifi on first time setup | 21:01 |
| jhutchins | wad: Real admins don't run ssh on 22. | 21:02 |
| jhutchins | !wifi | 21:02 |
| Qbuo | Hello? | 21:02 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 21:02 |
| Qbuo | Those are useless, they require an ethernet connection, do i need some driver or something just to detect my home wifi??? | 21:03 |
| jhutchins | wad: I prefer to have my firewall/router upstream of the rest of the services. | 21:03 |
| ikonia | Qbuo: your card needs to be supported | 21:03 |
| wad | Jhutchins, good point. I should probably use a different port. Not that anyone couldn't find it anyway. | 21:03 |
| cryptodan | wad, you should not be using a router to host anything but to route traffic | 21:04 |
| Qbuo | I have a new asus motherboard, no reason why it wouldnt be | 21:04 |
| ikonia | Qbuo: just because it's new has no relevence to if it's support | 21:04 |
| ikonia | supported | 21:04 |
| jhutchins | wad: True, but the additional effort takes you out of a lot of scripts and bulk attempts, and it also shows you're probably sharp enough that you're not worth a casual hack. | 21:04 |
| wad | Agreed. | 21:04 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: If you were to read the docs you would find out how to determine your chipset and what it requires for support. | 21:05 |
| wad | As for the router doing other stuff, why not? The machine is plenty powerful to do it all. | 21:05 |
| cryptodan | wad, defense in depth | 21:05 |
| Qbuo | Where can i find supported motherboards/wwifi card things | 21:05 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: At the link ubottu posted. | 21:05 |
| Qbuo | I have a Killer E2200 network card | 21:07 |
| Qbuo | On an msi mobo | 21:08 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: what chipset? | 21:08 |
| ShalokShalom | ls is ls | 21:08 |
| ShalokShalom | -l: not found | 21:08 |
| Qbuo | What chipset is the motherboard or what? | 21:08 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: your network card | 21:09 |
| ShalokShalom | .. /bin/sh is /bin/sh | 21:09 |
| ShalokShalom | EriC^^: | 21:10 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: You are not making sense. | 21:11 |
| Qbuo | Killer ethernet is all it says | 21:11 |
| ShalokShalom | jhutchins: Eric know my issue | 21:11 |
| Qbuo | Wel fuck | 21:11 |
| Qbuo | How do i tell if i even have a wireless card | 21:11 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: i think you typed "type ls -l /bin/sh" | 21:12 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: We could just tell you, but why not have a look and get some backgoround, as well as the answers to your next three questions? | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: dont leave, no need to get into the busybox | 21:12 |
| ShalokShalom | this is the result | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: are you in ubuntu right now? | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | how to avoid ? | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | in live ? | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | no ROSA | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | which tool ? | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | or download buntu ? | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: huh? | 21:13 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: ifconfig /a should show the card if the driver's loaded, lspci -nn will give you the chipset name and pciid. | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: you said ubuntu boots but when you hibernate it goes to busybox right? | 21:13 |
| ShalokShalom | yes, the installation | 21:14 |
| jhutchins | !de | 21:14 |
| ubottu | In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 21:14 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: ok, are you in it right now? | 21:14 |
| ShalokShalom | i guess you mean now in live mode (there i am on ROSA) | 21:14 |
| ShalokShalom | how can i chat with you in busy box xD `? | 21:14 |
| Qbuo | Well the drivers not loaded as my computer has no internet | 21:14 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: i mean the installation, you said it boots and only goes to busybox if you resume from hibernation | 21:15 |
| xcyclist | http://pastie.org/9807056 | 21:15 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Not necessarily. Takes more than just drivers. | 21:15 |
| ShalokShalom | yes | 21:15 |
| ShalokShalom | this is kubuntu 1404 | 21:15 |
| xcyclist | I just came back from a disconnect. Sorry if I missed something. | 21:15 |
| xcyclist | Oddly it doesn't do that if I run /etc/init.d/networking restart | 21:15 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: Easy answer is don't hibernate, boot is pretty quick. | 21:16 |
| ShalokShalom | you miss nothing :) | 21:16 |
| ShalokShalom | jhutchins: i know, this is my meaning as well | 21:16 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: swap is greater than ram? | 21:16 |
| ShalokShalom | friends computer and default behaviour in kde sc 4, when you close the laptop lid | 21:16 |
| Qbuo | "lscpi -nn" did nothing | 21:16 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: Ah. That is often configurable. | 21:16 |
| * Chuck_Norris would like to share a link: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video | 21:16 | |
| ShalokShalom | will change this in future every time to shut down the screen | 21:17 |
| ShalokShalom | yes, ofc it is | 21:17 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: just do lspci or lsusb and dpaste.com it | 21:17 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: ls (list) pci (pci bus) lspci -nn | 21:17 |
| ShalokShalom | i just forget it, when i set up the device for him | 21:17 |
| Qbuo | Dont underatand why the thing wont just search for wifi conections then let me click connect | 21:17 |
| ShalokShalom | sleep and hibernation is senseless at all for me | 21:17 |
| ShalokShalom | makes just much effort to support it | 21:17 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Because you didn't pay for Bill Gates' minions to do the work for you. | 21:18 |
| ShalokShalom | EriC^^: no need to get in busy box, you mean ? | 21:18 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: For a lot of chipsets that works, but some take extra effort because the manufactureres are creative. | 21:18 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: not sure about this stuff | 21:18 |
| EriC^^ | ShalokShalom: if it can't resume hibernation, can you set it straight from a live usb or something? | 21:19 |
| Qbuo | All mine says is qualcomm aetheros killer e2200 ethernet controler | 21:19 |
| Qbuo | What am i looking for | 21:19 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: more than likely there are no drivers for it as those killer nics are designed for windows only | 21:20 |
| Qbuo | Well fuck | 21:20 |
| Qbuo | What now | 21:20 |
| Qbuo | Go buy windows key offa reddit? | 21:20 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: If you used -nn you would get a pciid, and I have a database I can search for details on support. | 21:20 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: I would suggest getting an Intel 6300 or 7200 series nic, and watch the language here | 21:20 |
| Qbuo | Im not about yo buy a new motherboard for a free operating system lol | 21:21 |
| clockwork_ | Helo | 21:21 |
| clockwork_ | Hello* | 21:21 |
| cryptodan | its network card | 21:21 |
| cryptodan | it costs roughly 40 bucks | 21:21 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: You could also get a USB NIC. | 21:21 |
| Qbuo | well windows keys are 10 bucks | 21:21 |
| clockwork_ | Could someone tell me how I can stream audio from Pulse to my android device via RTP? | 21:21 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: probably pirated | 21:22 |
| S_SubZero | does Ubuntu have issues with having executable scripts on USB sticks? For some reason it's totally ignoring any chmod +x on a bash script on my stick, but if I move the script to the local drive, it allows chmod. | 21:22 |
| Qbuo | Pirated windows is probably a lot easier to set up than this haha | 21:22 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: inappropriate. | 21:22 |
| EriC^^ | S_SubZero: depends on the mount options | 21:22 |
| clockwork_ | Pirated Windows? Windows 10 technical preview is as easy as it gets | 21:22 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Should be usable with the atheros drivers. | 21:23 |
| zykotick9 | S_SubZero: is your stick fat/ntfs? could those filesystems don't support POSIX permissions | 21:23 |
| Qbuo | What? | 21:23 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833106251 | 21:23 |
| S_SubZero | zykotick9: yeah I suspected that, it's fat32 | 21:23 |
| Qbuo | i am really confused | 21:23 |
| ShalokShalom | EriC^^: set it straight from live mode ? how ? | 21:23 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: Probably mounted noexec. | 21:23 |
| zykotick9 | S_SubZero: use a real filesystem ;) best of luck. | 21:23 |
| ShalokShalom | i just want recover the personal data, OS is unimportant | 21:23 |
| Qbuo | That's umm... 50 bucks | 21:24 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: using a live session should allow you to get to your drives | 21:24 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: yeah it also works on multiple operating systems out of the box | 21:24 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: What kernel do you have (uname -r) | 21:24 |
| Qbuo | whats a kernel | 21:24 |
| Techspectre | Anyone ever try to do the whole crouton thing with a chromebook? | 21:24 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: e2200 works w/3.16. | 21:25 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Just do uname -r on a command line. | 21:25 |
| Qbuo | What is 3.16, i cant connect to the internet right now | 21:25 |
| jhutchins | 3.16 is a version of the kernel, which is the core of the operating system. | 21:25 |
| Qbuo | Uname -r | 21:25 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Not here, command line/console | 21:26 |
| blackangelpr | go to ubuntu pres ctrl+t then type that | 21:26 |
| blackangelpr | ctrl +alt +t | 21:26 |
| blackangelpr | sorry XD | 21:26 |
| Qbuo | It says: 3.13.0-32-generic | 21:26 |
| daftykins | ^14.04 trusty out of date | 21:27 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: You need a newer kernel, v.3.16 or better should work. You could install 14.10, it's the current release anyway, or you could download the kernel and transfer it to the machine with a USB drive. | 21:28 |
| Qbuo | Jhutchins: it says 3.13-0-generic | 21:28 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: If you could temporarily you could upgrade directly to 14.10. | 21:29 |
| Qbuo | Where do i do that from | 21:29 |
| Qbuo | I welp | 21:29 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: same way you just installed 14.04. | 21:29 |
| Qbuo | It took me 13 hours to install 14.04 | 21:29 |
| daftykins | seriously? did you find the floppy edition? :P | 21:30 |
| Qbuo | No, i just had my whole family on netflix and youtube | 21:30 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: doesnt your motherboard also have wired? | 21:30 |
| Qbuo | Wired wat? | 21:30 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: ethernet | 21:31 |
| Qbuo | Thats what the card is isnt it | 21:31 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Actually, it looks like you need to upgrade to 14.10, 3.16 is not available in trusty. | 21:31 |
| daftykins | cryptodan: that's what a killer NIC is, silly | 21:31 |
| cryptodan | he was talking wireless | 21:31 |
| jhutchins | That's what I understood too. | 21:31 |
| cryptodan | the killer wired nics usually come with Intel Chipsets | 21:32 |
| daftykins | ah ok, well i think they do both | 21:32 |
| Qbuo | On the mobo box it says ethernet congroller | 21:32 |
| daftykins | state the make and model of board | 21:32 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: My recommendation would be to reinstall with 14.10. That would be the simplest solution. | 21:32 |
| Qbuo | MSI 7z87m Gaming | 21:32 |
| easy_ | how can I mount a large hard drive I have in an external USB box in 14.04? | 21:32 |
| daftykins | easy_: it should be auto | 21:33 |
| Qbuo | *z87m | 21:33 |
| easy_ | no doesn't even show up | 21:33 |
| xcyclist | Say, what initializes the hostname inside the standard user prompt? | 21:34 |
| daftykins | ok guys - verdict is it's wired LAN - http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z87M-GAMING.html#hero-specification | 21:34 |
| daftykins | so that'll be a tip for the new year, don't assume :) | 21:34 |
| daftykins | "1x Killer E2205 Gigabit LAN controller" | 21:34 |
| Qbuo | So what do i do | 21:34 |
| cryptodan | He stated wireless though | 21:34 |
| blackangelpr | easy_, if you plug it into the usb and do lsusb could you see it? | 21:35 |
| daftykins | the customer is always wrong ;) | 21:35 |
| Qbuo | I said i wanted to connect to my wifi is all | 21:35 |
| easy_ | No, not at all | 21:35 |
| blackangelpr | meh try another usb port just incase | 21:35 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: wired lan and wireless lan are totally different | 21:35 |
| Qbuo | So i need an ethernet cable? | 21:36 |
| easy_ | nope, not listed via lsusb | 21:36 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: what have you been doing so far? did you think it was wireless? | 21:36 |
| Qbuo | Yea | 21:36 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: open a terminal and run this: "ip a" do you see anything other than 'lo' ? | 21:37 |
| jhutchins | easy_: run dmesg, see if it sees a USB device. If not you have a hardware problem. | 21:37 |
| easy_ | ip a | 21:37 |
| wad | I'm back, and I'm not on my phone now! Wow, a real keyboard.... | 21:37 |
| Qbuo | I see eth0 | 21:37 |
| blackangelpr | easy_, dumb question but it happends some external usb have two usb cable one for data and one for information tranfer if they have two use them | 21:37 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: If you have an e2200, it's probably not going to work unless you upgrade to 14.10. | 21:37 |
| blackangelpr | i mean one for power and one for data | 21:37 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: yeah so you need to plug a cable in then all will be well | 21:38 |
| Qbuo | So do i beed to buy an ethernet cable or not!!! | 21:38 |
| easy_ | no, only 1 data usb | 21:38 |
| jhutchins | easy_: That's because they can draw more power than a single port can supply. | 21:38 |
| daftykins | jhutchins: totally wrong i'm afraid. | 21:38 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: yes if you do not have one | 21:38 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: well since the board has nothing wireless, yes :P | 21:38 |
| daftykins | can't believe these guys managed to tread water on your query for so long =| | 21:38 |
| easy_ | has external power suppley | 21:38 |
| jhutchins | daftykins: I thought they needed 3.16 or greater, but an ubuntu kernel is not a generic kernel. Will they work with 14.04 (3.13)? | 21:39 |
| blackangelpr | ok... :P | 21:39 |
| Qbuo | That sucks, would expect a little more from a "gaming" motherboard | 21:39 |
| daftykins | jhutchins: see my link and detail regarding what the motherboard and adapter is | 21:39 |
| cryptodan | Qbuo: motherboards dont come with networking cables | 21:39 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: anyone with half a clue about gaming does not use a wireless network :) | 21:39 |
| Qbuo | I dont feel like sitting with my router up my ass in the licing room | 21:39 |
| Qbuo | *living | 21:40 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: you might want to pay a bit more attention to products you buy in future | 21:40 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Please keep the language civil. | 21:40 |
| daftykins | well, long cables exist y'know | 21:40 |
| ShalokShalom | [22:23] <jhutchins> ShalokShalom: Probably mounted noexec. ? | 21:40 |
| jhutchins | ShalokShalom: man mount | 21:40 |
| Qbuo | Yeah, it was a combo deal so ill watch iut next time | 21:40 |
| jhutchins | Qbuo: Well, read the box. They usually list the features. | 21:40 |
| cryptodan | and the gaming term in that is usually a gimmick to get you to pay more for a product | 21:40 |

| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: are you using Windows 8 or 8.1? | 21:41 |
| ShalokShalom | no | 21:41 |
| daftykins | easy_: did you run "sudo parted -l" yet? thatd be a good way to see if the disk shows up | 21:41 |
| ShalokShalom | this is just the same issue in kubuntu | 21:41 |
| cryptodan | then how can be mounted in hibernate mode? | 21:41 |
| ShalokShalom | i know what you mean, its exactly that | 21:41 |
| cryptodan | never heard of such a thing with linux | 21:41 |
| ShalokShalom | its the first time for me as well | 21:42 |
| Qbuo | Thanks for the help, will i still need to get 14.10 for t to work? | 21:42 |
| ShalokShalom | especially in updated LTS version | 21:42 |
| cryptodan | its either mounted or not | 21:42 |
| ShalokShalom | this user of the device means, it makes same troubles after the last update | 21:43 |
| ShalokShalom | idk, if that count as mounted | 21:43 |
| ShalokShalom | its still in hibernate for sure | 21:43 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: what error messages do you get when you boot it without the live session | 21:43 |

| zykotick9 | daftykins: i'm still missing something, but if easy wants to see his usb, using "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda" is ONLY going to show sda (most likely internal HD)... | 21:55 |

| MuffinMedic | thanks daftykins ! | 22:10 |
| cryptodan | MuffinMedic: you can log the data to a log file | 22:11 |
| MuffinMedic | you mean pipe the output? python3.4 .... > file.log? | 22:11 |
| cpt_yossarian | MuffinMedic: you should either save your output in a file or pipe it into one and run the bots in some kind of terminal multiplexer (GNU screen or tmux) | 22:11 |
| cpt_yossarian | ^ Either that kind of redirection or use Python's file I/O, which would be clearer | 22:12 |
| MuffinMedic | Can I save screen sessions? | 22:13 |

| earthrocka | i couldnt scroll down to click on ok | 22:17 |
| earthrocka | im gonna try that again though | 22:17 |
| SchrodingersScat | earthrocka: you can always open a terminal and run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 22:19 |
| earthrocka | thats how i did it SchrodingersScat | 22:19 |
| earthrocka | and something still came up to scroll over that said ok | 22:19 |
| earthrocka | lol | 22:19 |
| SchrodingersScat | huh, k | 22:19 |
| earthrocka | im about to try it again though | 22:19 |
| Bashing-om | earthrocka: What Desktop Environment aare you using ? Makes a difference as to which 'restricted extra' is to be installed . | 22:20 |
| earthrocka | unity | 22:20 |
| earthrocka | just figured out how to click on that ok | 22:20 |
| earthrocka | lol | 22:20 |
| earthrocka | hit the tab button | 22:20 |
| Bashing-om | earthrocka: Best I recall, one has to accept Microsoft's EULA . tab to get OK, and enter to accpet (??) . | 22:21 |

| earthrocka | tab button :) | 22:21 |
| earthrocka | i got it lol | 22:21 |
| earthrocka | thanks | 22:21 |
| earthrocka | after this ill install the libdvdread4 | 22:22 |
| earthrocka | and see how that treats me | 22:22 |
| Bashing-om | earthrocka: Yep, then -> Then open a terminal window and execute: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh . | 22:23 |
| earthrocka | still not playing | 22:28 |

| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: can you try mounting the drive again | 22:45 |
| ShalokShalom | yes | 22:46 |
| cryptodan | Church and zykotick9 the difference with -h added the -h makes it human readable | 22:46 |

| === Snowstormer is now known as cats | ||

| yvear | how do I set up gui programs to execute with root permissions? i.e. right now I must do 'kdesudo gvim' but I just want to click gvim once on its desktop icon I tried making a shell script with these 2 lines: | 22:47 |

| yvear | kdesudo gvim | 22:47 |
| yvear | but it opens only as normal user as if kdesudo isn't used | 22:47 |
| zykotick9 | cryptodan: you don't need the -hk just use -h | 22:48 |
| Church | cryptodan: -k says "display results in kilobytes". -h "in human readable form". So one OR another :) | 22:48 |
| cryptodan | again look at my paste | 22:48 |
| cryptodan | tell me which is better | 22:48 |
| cryptodan | I prefer df -kh | 22:48 |
| zykotick9 | cryptodan: your paste has the redundant -hk you just need -h | 22:49 |
| Church | cryptodan: use just -h. k not needed. | 22:49 |

| Foxhoundz | Version 1.0 is out and the Ubuntu repo version shows 0.4.2 | 23:33 |
| Foxhoundz | wtf?? | 23:33 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: is it like this http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/120198/how-to-fix-boot-into-initramfs-prompt-and-mount-cant-read-etc-fstab-no-su | 23:34 |
| rypervenche | Foxhoundz: Ubuntu is not meant to have the latest versions of packages. | 23:34 |
| zykotick9 | !latest | Foxhoundz | 23:34 |
| ubottu | Foxhoundz: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 23:34 |
| ShalokShalom | no | 23:34 |
| TheTopBloke | so is ubuntu like the starter linux? | 23:34 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: there has to be more to your error message | 23:35 |
| Foxhoundz | zykotick9: well there is a difference between being stable and being outdated | 23:35 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: or is it this http://askubuntu.com/questions/137655/boot-drops-to-a-initramfs-prompts-busybox | 23:35 |
| WillW | TheTopBloke: Pretty much, it has a strong community and lots of feature, I recommend starting with ubuntu | 23:35 |
| Foxhoundz | being 6 major releases behind isn't stable | 23:35 |
| JWalker95 | TheTopBloke: It probably has the best documentation | 23:35 |
| ShalokShalom | yes, exactly | 23:36 |
| rypervenche | Foxhoundz: It's not six behind, weechat jumped from 0.4.3. 1.0.0 I believe. | 23:36 |
| TheTopBloke | I've just noticed there are a lot of features not installed. I'm just using it as a server. | 23:36 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: follow the steps there | 23:36 |
| ShalokShalom | yes, thanks | 23:36 |
| ShalokShalom | was this because of hibernate or other reason ? | 23:36 |
| ShalokShalom | or is this just a bad luck mix ? | 23:37 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: another reason | 23:37 |
| ShalokShalom | ah, ok | 23:37 |
| ShalokShalom | so bad mix of 2 issues | 23:37 |
| WillW | TheTopBloke: yeah, the server has only the features necessary to easily get a server running. What's missing from that? | 23:37 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: more than likely a hard drive failing or a system that was power down without a clean unmount | 23:37 |
| ShalokShalom | will change the default lid behaviour in my distros from now | 23:37 |
| TheTopBloke | Yeah I figured that might be the case also. Nothing in particular. Some libaries here and there, stuff like mail, no big deal really. | 23:38 |
| ShalokShalom | power down without a clean unmount because of sleep ? | 23:38 |
| ShalokShalom | because the real user of this device say, that the deive sometimes dont go in hibernate, when he close the lid | 23:39 |
| cryptodan | ShalokShalom: yup | 23:39 |
| WillW | TheTopBloke: I believe email server packages are an option on ubuntu server install, I may be wrong though | 23:39 |
