synire | How would one find the path of an application installed using terminal? | 00:11 |
zykotick9 | synire: "whereis foo" | 00:11 |
synire | zykotick9: thanks! | 00:11 |
zykotick9 | synire: fyi, that _might_ not work... | 00:12 |
zykotick9 | synire: infact, i like the output/info from "which foo" better (but, both assume you used apt/apt-get/aptitude to install) | 00:14 |
synire | zykotick9: sure did | 00:14 |
synire | zykotick9: I found an alternative, "locate" seems to work for it. | 00:16 |
nataly | Hi, how do I install this patch - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1296275 ??? | 00:16 |
wafflej0ck | zykotick9, thought which used the path | 00:16 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1296275 in gvfs (Ubuntu Utopic) "PTP Cameras not working on 14.04, works flawlessly on 12.04" [Low,Triaged] | 00:16 |
wafflej0ck | !info which | 00:16 |
ubottu | Package which does not exist in utopic | 00:16 |
wafflej0ck | man page says: which returns the pathnames of the files (or links) which would be executed in the current environment, had its arguments been given as commands in a strictly POSIX-conformant shell. It does this by searching the PATH for | 00:16 |
wafflej0ck | executable files matching the names of the arguments. It does not follow symbolic links. | 00:16 |
synire | that explains as I am running 14.04 which i believe is utopic | 00:16 |
nataly | i mean how do I install or run - Patch: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/177343655/libgphoto2_2.5.4-1ubuntu1_2.5.4-1ubuntu2.diff.gz | 00:17 |
zykotick9 | wafflej0ck: for real fun try "dpkg -S foo" for the path to all files installed from package with full paths ;) | 00:17 |
wafflej0ck | synire, locate you need to use, sudo updatedb after installing things for it to update the index | 00:17 |
wafflej0ck | zykotick9, hmm thought that one was -L ... will have to check man on both of those too | 00:17 |
zykotick9 | wafflej0ck: lol, ya -L is WAY better | 00:18 |
synire | Should I run updatedb everytime after apt-get install? or is there a auto update every x time? | 00:18 |
wafflej0ck | synire, not sure, man updatedb or man locate | 00:18 |
wafflej0ck | synire, ah says daily cron | 00:19 |
zykotick9 | wafflej0ck: tbo i never liked/used locate because of the whole updating thing. i'll break down and use find if it comes to that ;) | 00:19 |
zykotick9 | synire: ^ | 00:19 |
synire | find sublime_text | 00:19 |
wafflej0ck | zykotick9, yeah find can definitely be useful but more complicated | 00:19 |
synire | Like that? | 00:19 |
WillW | Hey all, I'm trying to get an NTFS folder on a network share using samba, but I always have permission denied. EXT4 works fine. Here is my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9652569/ and here is smb.conf(if necessary): http://paste.ubuntu.com/9652575/ | 00:19 |
cryptodan | WillW: the fstype is not ntfs-3g but ntfs | 00:20 |
WillW | cryptodan: neither ntfs nor ntfs-3g work | 00:21 |
Buntunub_ | well.. is ntfs-3g a recognized switch? | 00:21 |
Buntunub_ | in Linux | 00:21 |
nataly | any idea how to get PTP camera (casio) to work in 14.04? | 00:21 |
wafflej0ck | synire, the sublime text executable is actually just subl I'm pretty sure, not sure about the syntax for the find command there are typically flags you need to set | 00:21 |
cryptodan | WillW: can you access it via file manager? | 00:21 |
WillW | the ntfs-3g partition is mounted and working the way its supposed to | 00:22 |
WillW | yes | 00:22 |
cryptodan | there is no NFTS-3G File System | 00:22 |
Buntunub_ | try dropping the -3g | 00:22 |
cryptodan | NTFS* | 00:22 |
WillW | uh sure | 00:22 |
Buntunub_ | the rest of it looks fine to me | 00:22 |
cryptodan | and you do not need samba to access a physical drive that is in the machine | 00:23 |
WillW | the ntfs-3g partition is games and doesnt need to be on a network share anyway | 00:23 |
Buntunub_ | you will need to remount after | 00:23 |
cryptodan | WillW: there is no such thing as a NTFS-3G file system | 00:23 |
WillW | cryptodan: ok ill get rid of it.... what do you mean i don't need samba? | 00:23 |
Buntunub_ | samba is for windows file sharing across a network | 00:24 |
cryptodan | Samba is used for networking with windows or creating a domain controller in linux | 00:24 |
synire | wafflej0ck: Thanks, I'll read that manpage for "find" | 00:24 |
WillW | cryptodan Buntnub_: Well yes I'm trying to share one folder across the network, and it needs to be win-compatible too | 00:24 |
WillW | is there a better way? | 00:24 |
Buntunub_ | are you sharing from Linux to windows or windows to Linux | 00:25 |
cryptodan | WillW: by the looks of it the drive is local | 00:25 |
WillW | cryptodan: yes it is | 00:25 |
cryptodan | then you do not need in it in fstab the way it is | 00:25 |
Buntunub_ | well then you don't need samba to access a local drive such as with a dual boot | 00:25 |
WillW | Ok i'll clarify: | 00:26 |
WillW | two PCs | 00:26 |
rsully | I have a GTS 450 I'm trying to test (14.04.1 live cd) - I upgraded my mobo's bios incase that was it, but I still can't get it to show up under `lspci` and I don't see anything obvious in dmesg | 00:26 |
WillW | one with windows and ubuntu | 00:26 |
WillW | sharing that NTFS folder over the network | 00:26 |
WillW | the other is ubuntu | 00:26 |
WillW | needs to access that folder | 00:26 |
cryptodan | WillW: http://askubuntu.com/questions/247341/mounting-samba-share-in-using-fstab | 00:26 |
Buntunub_ | just reading back what you typed there.. you are trying to test a video card and lspci does not show it on the Ubuntu bux | 00:27 |
Buntunub_ | box | 00:27 |
Buntunub_ | ? | 00:28 |
WillW | cryptodan: will this make the folder accessible from windows machines? | 00:28 |
nataly | cant get pics from casio camera in 14.04 - used to work in 12.x?! any ideas? | 00:28 |
rsully | yeah - I don't care about trying to use the video card, I just want it to show up (use it for cuda, etc) | 00:28 |
Buntunub_ | does it show up on the windows box? | 00:28 |
rsully | I don't have a windows box | 00:28 |
Buntunub_ | ahh ok lol | 00:28 |
rsully | the previous owner was using it fine in their dell tho | 00:28 |
Buntunub_ | ok so its a pcie card? | 00:28 |
rsully | yeah pcie 2 x16 | 00:29 |
Buntunub_ | sure its plugged in fully? | 00:29 |
cryptodan | WillW: from windows you will need to add the same username and password and setup samba to become a domain controller | 00:29 |
rsully | I've tried reseating it :/ | 00:29 |
Buntunub_ | ok np.. sounds like you are missing a driver | 00:29 |
Buntunub_ | weird that lspci does not at least see something though | 00:30 |
rsully | I figured it would show up in a hardware listing even without a driver | 00:30 |
rsully | or even a mention in dmesg | 00:30 |
WillW | cryptodan: lastly, the folder needs to have guest access so anyone can put stuff in it | 00:30 |
Buntunub_ | yeah the kernel should at least see something there | 00:30 |
cryptodan | WillW: thats not adviseable | 00:30 |
WillW | cryptodan: I know, but this is my home network, and its really just a filesharing folder | 00:31 |
Buntunub_ | did you try to load the Nvidia driver using the Ubuntu driver install thingy | 00:31 |
rsully | no, I suspect I have to add the universe repo for that? | 00:32 |
Buntunub_ | correct | 00:32 |
cryptodan | WillW: in windows can you actually see the ubuntu machine? | 00:32 |
Buntunub_ | you can check nouveau see if it supports your chipset | 00:32 |
Buntunub_ | otherwise you use the proprietary blob | 00:32 |
nataly | so i have a PTP camera (casio) and i think i have this bug - and here is the "fix" - wtf do I do to implement this fix --> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/177343655/libgphoto2_2.5.4-1ubuntu1_2.5.4-1ubuntu2.diff.gz | 00:33 |
WillW | cryptodan: I think so, I can check in a few mins, but right now, nautilus on the client machine can see the "windows network" and access folders in there | 00:33 |
rsully | the graphics card chipset that is? | 00:33 |
cryptodan | WillW: so the Windows machine is sharing the content? | 00:33 |
rsully | nouveau lists gts 450 as compatible | 00:33 |
Buntunub_ | then try using it first | 00:34 |
revo | happy 2015 every one | 00:34 |
cpt_yossarian | happy new years :) | 00:34 |
rsully | Buntunub_ any idea how I can tell which nvidia-graphics-drivers-* package i need? | 00:35 |
WillW | cryptodan: Yes, the windows/ubuntu machine is sharing the content, with guest access. Any other windows/ubuntu machine needs to be able to access it from the network, without a login | 00:35 |

=== cnj_ is now known as cnj | ||
WillW | cryptodan: Ok sorry, I'll explain a bit better, but thatnks for taking the time to help | 00:36 |
WillW | cryptodan: My desktop has a "public" folder, which I want to share documents with my friends who come over. This folder can be accessed from windows and ubuntu on my desktop. | 00:37 |
rsully | hrm the guide says to use "xserver-xorg-video-nouveau" - I hope that won't try to use the card by default | 00:37 |
revo | 05question ??? How do i open jpg files in ubuntu ??? | 00:37 |
Buntunub_ | that is the xserver for it yeah | 00:38 |
cryptodan | WillW: then follow the link I linked too | 00:38 |
WillW | cryptodan: Ok, will do, thanks | 00:38 |
Buntunub_ | try this rsully https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 00:39 |
WillW | cryptodan: wait wait wait, no, this is to mount a folder already on the network, mapping it to a local folder. I'm trying to do the inverse. | 00:39 |
WillW | I have a local folder that needs to be networked | 00:39 |
rsully | Buntunub_ tried that with "installation without X" but ubuntu-drivers is an empty list since it can't see the card | 00:40 |
nataly | so i have a PTP camera (casio) and i think i have this bug - and here is the "fix" - HOW do I implement this fix --> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/177343655/libgphoto2_2.5.4-1ubuntu1_2.5.4-1ubuntu2.diff.gz | 00:41 |
Buntunub_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 00:41 |
Buntunub_ | http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/UbuntuPackages/ | 00:41 |
cryptodan | WillW: On Ubuntu? | 00:41 |
Buntunub_ | i mean | 00:41 |
Buntunub_ | sounds like you can have both | 00:41 |
Buntunub_ | so install the binary blob and you can also have neauvou | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | nouveau | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | you can switch | 00:42 |
rsully | ah ok | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | you need to append your xorg.conf | 00:42 |
WillW | cryptodan: Host PC ubuntu/win has folder. Folder needs to be network accessible. | 00:42 |
rsully | Buntunub_ well I don't want to use this card for my desktop | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | Section "Device" | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | Identifier "n" | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | Driver "nouveau" | 00:42 |
Buntunub_ | EndSection | 00:42 |
cryptodan | WillW: what are you doing again you are not making any sense | 00:43 |
rsully | I just want to (a) verify it will/can work for future VM passthrough and (b) be able to test using it for computations | 00:43 |
cryptodan | What machine do you want to be the server? | 00:43 |
rsully | Buntunub_ looks like nouveau is already installed btw | 00:44 |
WillW | cryptodan: Ubuntu is the server | 00:44 |
Buntunub_ | yes it should be | 00:44 |
Buntunub_ | you probably just need to append your xorg.conf | 00:44 |
cryptodan | WillW: and are the /media/ mounts physical drives? | 00:44 |
rsully | that would only matter if i wanted to use the card in X | 00:44 |
WillW | cryptodan: Yes | 00:44 |
rsully | but the problem is much lower level - the system doesn't even see the hardware | 00:44 |
Buntunub_ | yeah that's why I am leaning to the proprietary | 00:45 |
cryptodan | WillW: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaServerGuide | 00:45 |
Buntunub_ | just install the nvidia blob | 00:45 |
Buntunub_ | easy to install the nvidia driver on linux these days | 00:46 |
rsully | right but there isn't just 1, there is a whole list of them and I don't see any listing that says card A = driver B | 00:46 |
Buntunub_ | did you try the nvidia website | 00:46 |
WillW | cryptodan: Yes, samba is configured, and I have success sharing a physical EXT4 partition over the network | 00:46 |
rsully | no, the nvidia site recommends to use the nvidia blobs provided by ubuntu | 00:47 |
WillW | cryptodan: But, the other PCs have a "permission denied" error when accessing the networked NTFS folder | 00:47 |
rsully | ill try their generic ones | 00:47 |
WillW | cryptodan: MY smb.conf(share defs are at the bottom): http://paste.ubuntu.com/9652575/ | 00:48 |
Buntunub_ | there are PPAs with it | 00:48 |
cryptodan | Is the NTFS Drive listed in the Samba Configuration? | 00:48 |
Buntunub_ | http://www.howopensource.com/2012/10/install-nvidia-geforce-driver-in-ubuntu-12-10-12-04-using-ppa/ | 00:48 |
Buntunub_ | thats version 304 | 00:48 |
cryptodan | WillW: is that /media.william actually NTFS or is it EXT4? | 00:49 |
WillW | cryptodan: NTFS | 00:49 |
cryptodan | that maybe causing issues | 00:49 |
englishlearner | ot: what channel is best for learning english? where people write in correct grammar/structure? thx | 00:50 |
cryptodan | If your ext4 works why not move everything to it? | 00:50 |
Buntunub_ | your asking the wrong crowd | 00:50 |
acerspyro | englishlearner: Likely support channels with pro users. | 00:50 |
Buntunub_ | linux devs are the last people to ask about grammar | 00:50 |
acerspyro | Not here anyways. | 00:51 |
Buntunub_ | unless its about C or C+ | 00:51 |
englishlearner | thanks | 00:51 |
WillW | cryptodan: Because the Server PC has windows on it, and its sharing it too, when I'm booted into windows. Windows cannot read EXT4 | 00:51 |
acerspyro | np | 00:51 |
rsully | Buntunub_ alright installing from that ppa | 00:52 |
rsully | it did something that completely messed up my display | 00:53 |
WillW | cryptodan: There is some sort of windows hack maybe to read EXT4 but I'd much rather not mess with windows | 00:53 |
rsully | it looks super zoomed in and stretched | 00:53 |
Buntunub_ | get rid of your xorg.conf | 00:53 |
Buntunub_ | just move it | 00:53 |
rsully | how can i do that when i cant use the computer | 00:53 |
rsully | its literally zoomed into like a 50 pixel area | 00:54 |
Buntunub_ | mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup | 00:54 |
Buntunub_ | reboot to safe mode | 00:54 |
Buntunub_ | or switch to VT | 00:54 |
rsully | i am running from the live cd | 00:54 |
rsully | this is just meant to test to see if the card will work | 00:54 |
Buntunub_ | wow lol | 00:54 |
Buntunub_ | you can't install an nvidia driver using the live cd | 00:55 |
rsully | why not -_- | 00:55 |
Buntunub_ | where would you install it to | 00:55 |
Buntunub_ | the cd? | 00:55 |
rsully | its all in ram? | 00:55 |
Buntunub_ | no I don't think ti works like that | 00:55 |
rsully | yeah it does | 00:55 |
rsully | writes go to ram | 00:55 |
Buntunub_ | but the driver wont kick in till you reboot | 00:56 |
WillW | rsully Buntunub_: you CAN install the drivers from live cd but you really shouldnt | 00:56 |
rsully | yeah but thats fine for testing :) | 00:56 |
Buntunub_ | try restarting X | 00:56 |
rsully | so i moved xorg config (i think) how can i get it to respawn | 00:56 |
WillW | also the drivers dont kick in until restarting X, yeah | 00:56 |
Buntunub_ | you should not need it | 00:57 |
Buntunub_ | just restart x | 00:57 |
rsully | which command | 00:57 |
rsully | restart lightdm? | 00:57 |
WillW | sudo service lightdm restart | 00:57 |
=== Hexeon|2 is now known as Hexeon | ||
rsully | gah not doing anything | 00:58 |
Buntunub_ | log out and from the login screen there should be an option to restart x | 00:58 |
Buntunub_ | least there is with gnome and kde | 00:59 |
rsully | well I'm still in zoomed in mess, so if i logout i suspect I won't be able to actually do anything | 00:59 |
rsully | I'm lucky that I have a terminal window open | 00:59 |
cpt_yossarian | does anybody have any experience w/ installing the intel graphics stack on 14.04? is it normally a long process with their GUI installer? | 00:59 |
Buntunub_ | honestly the best way to test if a distro works on your system is to install it as dual boot or on another drive | 01:00 |
cpt_yossarian | it's been chugging along for about 10 minutes now at 100% cpu... | 01:00 |
Buntunub_ | only so much you can do from a live environment and it will never really tell you much | 01:00 |
rsully | the only thing I am trying to do is see if this pci card would work | 01:01 |
Buntunub_ | and TBH.. Linux will usually always work except in few cases these days | 01:01 |
rsully | yeah like right now :p | 01:01 |
Buntunub_ | if you install it dual boot your system will work fine | 01:01 |
WillW | TBH.... linux never works correctly out of the box, but thats the fun of it | 01:01 |
Buntunub_ | and you will still have windows | 01:02 |
Buntunub_ | yes correct will | 01:02 |
Buntunub_ | but his nvidia card is very well supported in Linux | 01:02 |
rsully | yes unless the PCI slot is broken, or the card somehow died | 01:02 |
rsully | which is what I'd like to find out | 01:02 |
Buntunub_ | i thought you said it worked fine under windows when I asked you | 01:03 |
rsully | it worked on the previous owner's gaming rig | 01:03 |
rsully | I have never used it in this motherboard | 01:03 |
rsully | and no, this computer does not have windows installed | 01:04 |
Buntunub_ | and you have no other OS on that system? | 01:04 |
=== Sleepnbum is now known as Guest42715 | ||
rsully | lol I don't have a hard drive in this system. I am trying to do prep/testing before I decide how I want to configure it | 01:04 |
Buntunub_ | well putting a hard drive on it would generally be a good idea | 01:05 |
rsully | yeah I plan to get about 6 of them, but that is a few weeks away | 01:05 |
=== Darknet` is now known as Darknet | ||
WillW | rsully: if you think the PCI is broken, do you have a second graphics card? | 01:05 |
Buntunub_ | is it going to be for server use.. gaming use... what | 01:06 |
rsully | Buntunub_ server | 01:06 |
rsully | WillW nope, just mobo's vga | 01:06 |
rsully | my display is hooked up to VGA now | 01:06 |
Buntunub_ | web server.. file server.. | 01:06 |
WillW | rsully: what? if its for server use why the graphics card | 01:06 |
Bashing-om | rsully: IS this Nvidia card added, where formerly you were using an onboard graphics chip ? If so might re-arrange the video priority in bios . | 01:06 |
rsully | WillW 2 uses: passthrough to windows VM, use for gpu programming | 01:07 |
rsully | Bashing-om I didn't see any video priority in bios | 01:08 |
WillW | Hmm... maybe theres a way to test the functionality of the card remotely? | 01:08 |
=== `Yoda is now known as Yoder | ||
cryptodan | So its a dual boot environment WillW? | 01:10 |
WillW | cryptodan: yes | 01:10 |
Bashing-om | rsully: The video priority settings may be cryptic . Look carefully if formerly you were using onboard video . | 01:10 |
cryptodan | WillW: that is the issue | 01:10 |
WillW | cryptodan: the NTFS partition is separate from the boot partition, and windows isn't in hibernate or anything | 01:11 |
cryptodan | WillW: you need a dedicated server machine not a dual boot environment | 01:11 |
rsully | Bashing-om well the other interesting part to this is I am using ubuntu live usb to boot. but as I had mentioned, I wasn't even seeing this card with `lspci` or in dmesg | 01:11 |
WillW | cryptodan: well I don't want a dedicated server, I'm using windows 7 and ubuntu desktop | 01:11 |
WillW | cryptodan: just wanna share a folder on it | 01:11 |
cryptodan | WillW: thats how shares work | 01:12 |
cryptodan | WillW: you need a dedicated machine not a dual boot system | 01:12 |
WillW | cryptodan: So what you're saying is Ubuntu can share EXT4 folders, and windows can share NTFS, but neither of them can share both? | 01:13 |
cryptodan | WillW: if ubuntu is down and not powered on or booted into that ext4 is not there and same with windows | 01:13 |
WillW | cryptodan: I'm a bit confused now | 01:14 |
cryptodan | WillW: is ubuntu and windows on the same computer? | 01:15 |
WillW | cryptodan: yes | 01:15 |
cryptodan | then what you are doing is not doable WillW | 01:15 |
WillW | cryptodan: well hang on, 3 partitions: windows NTFS, shared NTFS, and linux EXT4 | 01:15 |
cryptodan | No can do as a server | 01:16 |
WillW | cryptodan: even when windows is powered down, not in hibernate? | 01:16 |
cryptodan | I thought you had one dedicated Ubuntu Machine and Windows Clients | 01:16 |
WillW | sh | 01:16 |
WillW | ah | 01:16 |
cryptodan | permissions come into play in linux that are not manageable on linux | 01:16 |
WillW | cryptodan: Yes, NTFS cant do permissions, but the entire partition can be mounted with the same permissions, which is acceptable in my case. Is there no way to use this? | 01:17 |
cryptodan | Nope not for what you want | 01:17 |
WillW | Screw this im writing my own kernel | 01:18 |
cryptodan | WillW: it has nothing to do with the Kernel | 01:18 |
WillW | OS | 01:18 |
cryptodan | It has everything to do with your non-dedicated environment | 01:18 |
WillW | cryptodan: Any chance you can give me a technical rundown of why it can't happen? | 01:19 |
cryptodan | two operating systems cannot be booted and running at the same time | 01:19 |

earthrocka | still having trouble getting dvds to play after installing ubuntu-restricted- extras and libdvdread4 | 01:20 |
earthrocka | anyone know where to go after this | 01:20 |
earthrocka | some dvds will play others wont | 01:20 |
cryptodan | on linux the ntfs file system is not manageable to the point of what you are wanting to do you still needed a dedicated windows server or a dedicated linux server with a configured samba to act as a domain controller | 01:20 |
earthrocka | i got another machine running ubuntu and dont have this prob ... but for some reason i cant get them to play on this laptop lol | 01:21 |
WillW | cryptodan: And you're saying there's no way I can mount an NTFS partition with 777 perms and have samba point to one folder on that partition to share? | 01:22 |

WillW | cryptodan: I DID IT | 01:40 |
WillW | I was missing the "force user" line, which i saw before but thought unnecessary | 01:41 |
WillW | but because fstab mounts and locks to a user, I need samba to fake the guest to be the user that the partition is mounted to | 01:42 |
WillW | Now im going to reboot because I mucked with fstab so somethings going to break | 01:44 |

RNeville | I can't seem to share a folder between my ubuntu box and a windows box. | 01:47 |
RNeville | When I check Samba on the Ubuntu 14.04 box it looks like I've set access to "allow access to everyone" | 01:48 |
WillW_2 | RNeville: I got your back bro i just did this a minute ago | 01:48 |
RNeville | On my windows machine I see the Ubuntu computer and folder I set up in Ubuntu 14.04 to be public | 01:48 |
RNeville | WillW_2: K | 01:49 |
RNeville | but I get a a permission not allowed on this folder | 01:49 |
WillW_2 | is the folder on EXT4 or ntfs | 01:50 |
RNeville | Even though I can see the folder "Documents" on the Ubuntu machine from the Windows machine | 01:50 |
RNeville | I think the folder WillW_2 is an EXT4 folder | 01:50 |
ilhami | I must have been mentally away that day. | 01:52 |
ilhami | I seriously don't remember anything. | 01:52 |
WillW | RNeville: So to be clear up to this point, you haven't set up share defs through smb.conf, and you've right clicks on the folder in nautilus and added a local network share, correct? | 01:52 |
WillW | RNeville: Assuming thats the case, but anyway whats the permissions on that folder | 01:53 |
RNeville | I used the Samba Server Configuration gui to set up a folder" Documents" to be accessable by all | 01:53 |
RNeville | My Windows 10 machine see the folder, but I get a permissions error for this folder when I try to open on Windows machine | 01:54 |
WillW | RNeville: can you post the contents of /etc/samba/smb.conf to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 01:55 |

netf0x | Hey guys, let me start by wishing everyone a lovely new year... | 02:47 |
wafflej0ck | chocolate, how is this an ubuntu support issue, if it isn't this isn't the place for a discussion you may want to try #ubuntu-offtopic or some other more pertinent channel | 02:48 |
netf0x | Is there anyway I could run the gnome version which comes with 10.04 on 14.04 and install the Emerald theme manager and Compiz settings manager? | 02:48 |
wafflej0ck | netf0x, not sure about emerald or compiz but you may want to check out Mate since it is a fork of the older gnome if you don't like Gnome 3 | 02:48 |
rww | there's probably plenty of ways, none of which are not a terrible idea | 02:48 |
xangua | netf0x: or you could use ubuntu mate 14.04 | 02:49 |
netf0x | wafflej0ck, Thanks ;) | 02:49 |
rww | emerald isn't maintained at all, compiz is pretty much dead, the only bit I'd go with is GNOME, which as others have said is usable as MATE | 02:49 |
netf0x | xangua, Awesome! | 02:50 |
netf0x | rww, Shame really, good things never last :) | 02:50 |
wafflej0ck | netf0x, I'm honestly a big fan of Gnome 3... liked Gnome 2 as well back in the day but I'm happy with the direction things are going | 02:50 |
netf0x | wafflej0ck, Me too and I don't mind Unity. It's just that I had a particular setup on 10.04 and would love to replicate it on the newer version. | 02:52 |

reggie-man | Should I download and install things from their official website, or through the default repositories? I was about to download Tor, when I realized there is a Tor in the repositories, as well as on their website, but they don't mention anything about the one in the repositories, which makes me think they don't support it. | 02:55 |
wafflej0ck | reggie-man, always use apt-get or the software center if it's an available option so you get package updates from the repositories | 02:55 |
wafflej0ck | reggie-man, you may not always get the latest version this way but you get one tested by the repository maintainers, if you *need* the newest then it's up to you to compile/install and maintain the updates | 02:56 |
reggie-man | Hmm. I guess so, but why wouldn't they recommend that on their website, wafflej0ck? | 02:56 |
wafflej0ck | reggie-man, not sure which site you're talking about in particular but I can't really tell you why someone decided to do something can only speculate :) | 02:57 |
reggie-man | wafflej0ck: I know you can only speculate. I'm talking about the Tor website. https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en | 02:58 |
wafflej0ck | reggie-man, yeah so projects that don't want to align themselves with one particular distro or maintain the different distribution packages aren't going to point you to something specific to Ubuntu or whatever it may be... nice thing about how they have this setup though is it's a no installer zip like eclipse so you just extract and run no need to actually run an install script, but again updates would be a manual process | 02:59 |
reggie-man | Alright. Thank you wafflej0ck. | 03:00 |
devnull_ | hi | 03:01 |
wafflej0ck | reggie-man, lots of sites that "support" ubuntu will have ubuntu specific instructions, but then to appease the red hat guys you have to do an RPM too and so on and so forth for other distributions, some projects they isolate themselves more from the particular distros, and np | 03:01 |
wallbroken | hi | 03:03 |
wallbroken | anybody of you uses dell xps ? | 03:04 |
wafflej0ck | hello wallbroken better to ask a specific support question but no I don't (they are nice though) | 03:04 |
wallbroken | i'm interested to buy a dell xps 13" developer edition with ubuntu preinstalled, and i need to know if is completely supported | 03:05 |
wallbroken | http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd | 03:06 |
cryptodan | wallbroken: why not get a system76 | 03:07 |
wallbroken | what? | 03:07 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, you mean by dell? seems like a question you'd want to pass by dell support it does appear they would support it though if they include 1 year support | 03:07 |
cryptodan | wallbroken: www.system76.com | 03:07 |
wallbroken | what i need to know is about drivers | 03:07 |
wafflej0ck | I have a sys76 machine though too, I understand they are typically rebranded clevo machines but I appreciate the ubuntu support and have been very happy with it for the last couple of years | 03:07 |
wallbroken | many times happened that ubuntu had not the appropriate drivers for many of peripherals of my old laptops, like webcam, notification leds, standby | 03:08 |
rypervenche | I'm on a system76 galago (clevo). I love it. | 03:09 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, dell wouldn't be selling it with Ubuntu if those were problems really | 03:09 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, they would kill themselves with the included year of support if everything wasn't working | 03:09 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, drivers for "modern" hardware has typically been very good lately too | 03:09 |
wallbroken | those system76 are horrible, i need a very thin ultabook | 03:10 |
ankita | my right click not working on desktop and all icons of desktop and wallpaper gone!! | 03:10 |
rypervenche | wallbroken: The galago is quite thin. | 03:11 |
cryptodan | https://system76.com/laptops/galago | 03:11 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, well you asked about a laptop with linux support and they're a company that has been doing it for years so it's not a way out of left field suggestion and you didn't say it had to be as thin as paper initially :) | 03:11 |
wafflej0ck | the galago is pretty slim too but yeah design wise they aren't typically as fancy as other manufacturers but they work well with ubuntu | 03:12 |
wallbroken | i mean "thin" as a macbook air,and i don't need dvd drive reader, | 03:12 |

Temp46 | is there a torrent client that forces all packets through tun0 and cuts connection if vpn connection is lost? | 03:13 |
ankita | my right click not working on desktop and all icons of desktop and wallpaper gone!! | 03:14 |
wallbroken | wafflej0ck, that dell has also a touchscreen monitor | 03:14 |
synire | Whats a good audio/video capture software for a webcam on utopic 14.04? | 03:14 |
wallbroken | maybe is the reason why is too much expensive | 03:14 |
rypervenche | Temp46: Hmmm, I only use deluge myself, but it looks as though you can choose an interface to use with it. I would assume that it wouldn't work if that interface weren't working. Would need to test it though. I don't know about other clients. I've only seriously used deluge and qbittorrent. | 03:15 |
jimmyd | Cheese>> | 03:16 |
wafflej0ck | wallbroken, ooo yeah it does look nice I can't lie :) I don't think it's an aweful idea but would want to check one out in person and would be good to get a little longer term commitment from dell on support, I really don't find the touchscreen to be too compelling though aside from maybe testing emulated mobile stuff | 03:16 |
Temp46 | rypervenche: thanks for your suggestion :) | 03:16 |
ankita | my right click not working on desktop and all icons of desktop and wallpaper gone!! | 03:16 |
wafflej0ck | synire, yeah Cheese is the basic one guvcview is more complex if you have a more advanced camera can do some cool stuff | 03:16 |
wafflej0ck | ankita, have you tried recovery mode to see if you're having some graphics driver related issue or if it's something else | 03:17 |
rypervenche | Temp46: qbittorrent also has an interface that you may use under the Advanced options. I think that would do what you like on both clients. | 03:17 |
synire | wafflej0ck: I got cheese up but I'm not seeing anything for setting up pulling audio and video from the webcam. | 03:17 |
wafflej0ck | ankita, also more info about what you're running will help, lsb_release -a in a terminal to get system info | 03:17 |
jimmyd | you gotta tweek it | 03:18 |
ankita | wafflej0ck, xubuntu 14.04 | 03:18 |
wafflej0ck | ankita, has this been a problem since initial install or some problem that just started occurring but you've been using it before? | 03:19 |
jimmyd | it froze a coupletime on me in 14.04 but then went ahead and worked fine | 03:19 |
wafflej0ck | synire, sorry not sure what you mean there, I open cheese and have options for capturing photos or video/audio | 03:19 |
ankita | wafflej0ck, after install It was running well.but 1 day i started my pc and it went wrong | 03:20 |
ankita | wafflej0ck, before I tried to install some graphics driver | 03:20 |
wafflej0ck | ankita, okay so you can try nomodeset boot parameter for the kernel to have it use the default graphics drivers instead of whatever you may have installed to see that it's what's causing the problem | 03:21 |
wafflej0ck | !nomodeset > ankita | 03:21 |
ubottu | ankita, please see my private message | 03:21 |
ankita | wafflej0ck, how can I do that ? | 03:21 |
synire | wafflej0ck: I guess the options are conditional on if its detecting the mic? Or possibly the record video function does not do audio. | 03:21 |
=== gigi is now known as Guest7526 | ||
wafflej0ck | ankita, see the private message ubottu sent you, long story short, do you have a grub menu? if not use shift to show grub during boot, select your normal startup (should be selected by default) hit e to edit it, you'll see the word "quiet" in the file that opens change that to nomodeset, and hit Ctrl+X, your system will boot, since you took out quiet it will show you all the checks it's doing during startup but then should boot | 03:23 |
wafflej0ck | with the basic graphic drivers | 03:23 |
synire | wafflej0ck: I'm going to check out that guvcview and see if I get different results. | 03:23 |
=== Guest7526 is now known as Gigi7526 | ||
Temp46 | rypervenche: it continues on eth0 if tun0 is deleted :/ (qbittorrent) | 03:23 |
ankita | wafflej0ck, I got it :) | 03:24 |
=== limon is now known as Guest3085 | ||
wafflej0ck | synire, hmm typically Cheese is the simple way to go and records both audio and video by default I think, but I really rarely record stuff from the webcam usually doing some screen capture type stuff instead, but guvcview is good for adjusting pan/tilt on an orbitsphere camera for hangouts | 03:24 |
wafflej0ck | also guvcview just has more options | 03:24 |
RNeville | When I run the testparm command I don't get any obvious errors, but it doesn repeat all the lines of code in the samba.conf file - like it just skipped over certain commands | 03:27 |
RNeville | Is this normal? | 03:28 |
jimmyd | Whats the differenv=ce between synaptic pacage manager and ubuntu software center | 03:28 |
rypervenche | Temp46: Give deluge a shot then. And if not, we can search online. | 03:28 |
Temp46 | im trying right now | 03:29 |
wafflej0ck | jimmyd, functionally they are pretty similar but think synaptic marks your updates with priorities | 03:29 |
wafflej0ck | jimmyd, like security issues vs small bug fixes... could be wrong though I just use apt-get 99% of the time | 03:30 |
Temp46 | when i click apply in the deluge settigns it deletes the interface input field *facepalm* | 03:30 |
jimmyd | Ive used apt get too | 03:30 |
jimmyd | most of the time i just use what ever the default is and from my point of view i don't know if it effects the programs or not | 03:32 |
wafflej0ck | synire, if you're just having audio issues with the webcam between different GUIs but the video is fine I would probably check out alsamixer and other audio related utils to see if you maybe need to enable/unmute the mic or something | 03:32 |

wafflej0ck | jimmyd, some good points on software center vs synaptic on this forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2176903 | 03:34 |
jimmyd | Thanks Wafflejock | 03:36 |
wafflej0ck | jimmyd, really whatever floats your boat there but just don't ever try to use some combination of 2 installer methods at the same time (lock file should in theory stop this from happening but you never know) | 03:36 |
rypervenche | Temp46: http://www.evolware.org/?p=293 | 03:39 |
Temp46 | thanks a ton :) | 03:39 |
sheer | happy new year everyone | 03:40 |
sheer | $15 to anyone that manages to help me :3 | 03:40 |
rypervenche | sheer: No need for money. What's your question? | 03:41 |
cfhowlett | sheer, sure. it's the Year of the Linux Desktop! | 03:41 |
jimmyd | so if you use apt-get then does it tell you if you need an update or do you do it manually time totime | 03:41 |
sheer | http://i.imgur.com/BQxmseQ.png | 03:41 |
TheTopBloke | good luck with that | 03:42 |
cfhowlett | jimmyd, you can set autoupdate options or you can manually trigger updates with apt. | 03:42 |
Temp46 | but i dont understand any of that networking tutorial :D | 03:42 |
Temp46 | i need to take a better look at it some time | 03:42 |
rypervenche | Temp46: Well, what you are wanting to do is not necessarily a basic user thing :P | 03:42 |
Temp46 | i only used ubuntu for 2 days nothing is easy :P | 03:43 |
rypervenche | sheer: What is your question along with the image? | 03:43 |
sheer | how do i see the things under my external hdd again | 03:43 |
sheer | is the question | 03:43 |
Bashing-om | jimmyd: Be aware, update syncs the data bases to your mirror, it is "sudo apt-get update" that updates the software in respect to the data bases . | 03:43 |
rypervenche | sheer: What do you mean "see"? You just open the folder where your external hard drive is located. Can you tell us what you are trying that isn't working? | 03:44 |
sheer | Ok, I installed Ubuntu the other day. I connected the external drive for the first time last night. | 03:45 |
sheer | I tried cutting and pasting a file, but the transfer stopped, maybe the cable was moved - the transfer didn't complete and now nothing shows up under "external" | 03:46 |
rypervenche | sheer: Was there anything else on the external drive before that or was that the only file that you tried to transfer? | 03:47 |
cfhowlett | sheer, suggest you use the command line so you can see what's happening e.g. cp sourcefile.foo targetfile.foo | 03:47 |
sheer | the drive was almost full | 03:47 |
sheer | 91gb unused of 1tb | 03:47 |
sheer | cfhowlett, would you mind directing me on the exact full commands? | 03:47 |
cfhowlett | sheer wait 1 | 03:48 |
ghost_ | can anyone help me? | 03:51 |
daftykins | not until you ask a question | 03:52 |
ghost_ | oh ok | 03:52 |
rypervenche | hahaha | 03:52 |
cfhowlett | sheer, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9653144/ command to copy .mp4 from Desktop to Videos | 03:53 |
ghost_ | im using a swapfile to hibernate in ubuntu and it works, but after i turn my laptop on the fn keys stop working and the user is already logged in, how can i fix this? | 03:53 |
sheer | copy .mp4 from Desktop to Videos? I'm lost | 03:53 |
sheer | should I be using this command? | 03:54 |
cfhowlett | sheer, as an example http://paste.ubuntu.com/9653147/ | 03:54 |
sheer | Ok | 03:54 |
sheer | But his is that relevant to me? | 03:54 |
cfhowlett | sheer, this will let you see if your file copies from point A > B | 03:55 |
sheer | so should I try to copy it to the external HDD? | 03:55 |
cfhowlett | sheer, exactly. a simple text file will suffice | 03:55 |
sheer | can't even get the DIR right yet | 03:58 |
sheer | cfhowlett, would you mind spelling it out for me as if this is the first time i've used a PC? | 04:00 |
cfhowlett | sheer, no problem | 04:00 |
cfhowlett | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9653162/ | 04:00 |
droid99 | sheer, really? first time? *please dont ban me* | 04:01 |
cfhowlett | sheer, cp = "copy" -v = "verbose" (lots of feedback). you're targeting an external device so /media/username/target directory in this case, my USB/PRINTING directory | 04:02 |
cfhowlett | sheer, "mount" or "lsusb" will display connected devices | 04:02 |
sheer | it at least knows it's a western digital drive connected | 04:03 |
sheer | i'm having trouble getting the directory right | 04:04 |
cfhowlett | sheer, run the mount commnad | 04:04 |
sheer | alright so /media/me/EXTERNAL but now for my desktop dir | 04:05 |
cfhowlett | sheer, line 20 = /dev (device)/sdb (/sda is your primary HDD, next is sdb ...) 4 is the 4th partition on the device | 04:05 |
sheer | my lines aren't numbered, | 04:06 |
cfhowlett | sheer, read the content and find your device | 04:07 |
sheer | /media/me/EXTERNAL, that's done | 04:07 |
sheer | i need my desktop dir for the .txt file | 04:07 |
sheer | cfhowlett, cp: cannot create regular file ‘/media/zvi/EXTERNAL/test.txt’: Input/output error | 04:09 |
cfhowlett | sheer, there it is. i/o means one of your storage devices is funked up or is configured incorrectly | 04:10 |
sheer | cfhowlett, what would one do about that? | 04:12 |
cfhowlett | sheer, backup immediately, stop using it and replace. but backup first. did I mention backup? cause you really should backup. NOW | 04:12 |
sheer | IDK how I'd back it up - most of the data I don't need, just a few documents | 04:13 |

andlabs|2 | What is /currently/ the best way to burn an ISO to a DVD-R via command line? | 04:15 |
andlabs|2 | still dvd+rw-tools? | 04:15 |
daftykins | i thought mkisofs was one of such tools | 04:16 |
cfhowlett | sheer, USB or whatever you have. Recognize that a failing drive *WILL* fail at the WORST possible moment thus ... backup now. | 04:17 |
Loshki | I've always used growisofs... | 04:17 |
daftykins | ^grow that's the one | 04:18 |
andlabs|2 | mkisofs aaaaa too many options and no man page : | 04:18 |
andlabs|2 | :| | 04:18 |
andlabs|2 | growisofs is dvd+rw-tools | 04:18 |
cfhowlett | daftykins, tools to test hard drive? smartmonctl or something? I believe sheer has a failing drive ... | 04:18 |
andlabs|2 | all right then, thanks | 04:18 |
daftykins | cfhowlett: ah right, never fear... slightly drunk new year daftykins is here | 04:18 |
cfhowlett | daftykins, sir, put the eggnog down and step away from the keyboard ... | 04:19 |
daftykins | sheer: can you run "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" | 04:19 |
daftykins | cfhowlett: but :( | 04:19 |
Loshki | gsmartcontrol is the gui version, makes it idiot-proof... | 04:19 |
cfhowlett | sheer, gsmartcontrol is recommended. run it to test your hard drives. | 04:20 |
daftykins | no point running tests, just give us the smarctl output | 04:20 |
Loshki | Also, SMART does *not* work over USB, very annoying that... | 04:21 |
daftykins | oh we're talking about an external? ok i haven't been following. | 04:21 |
andlabs|2 | oh that actually works! | 04:21 |
daftykins | no harm in *trying* though | 04:21 |

Temp46 | where is the /usr/include/GL with the fglrx drivers? what do i need to do to compile opengl applications? | 04:22 |
sheer | cfhowlett, daftykins what was I supposed to do now? | 04:23 |
sheer | get gsmartcontrol? | 04:24 |
daftykins | after doing what? | 04:24 |
sheer | daftykins, are you asking me? | 04:25 |
daftykins | i am | 04:25 |
Xandhin | happy new year for those over gmt -5 and over | 04:26 |
daftykins | sheer: you can run "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit" at least | 04:26 |
sheer | i haven't really done anything previously | 04:26 |
sheer | but i just ran your command | 04:27 |
daftykins | ok so those two packages are installed now? | 04:27 |
cfhowlett | sheer, for reference: smartctl -x /dev/sda returned the following. note line #26 http://paste.ubuntu.com/9653204/ | 04:27 |
daftykins | sheer: identify which device name your external hard disk is, e.g. /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc, etc... by running "sudo fdisk -l" | 04:28 |
Bashing-om | Temp46: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Trusty_Installation_Guide#Removing_Catalyst.2Ffglrx . Also includes docs to build the driver . | 04:28 |
Temp46 | thank you :) | 04:28 |
sheer | Smartctl open device: /dev/sdb [SAT] failed: Permission denied | 04:29 |
cfhowlett | sheer, sudo ... | 04:29 |
daftykins | sheer: so if /dev/sdb is your external, "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdb | pastebinit" then share the link with us here | 04:31 |

daftykins | sheer: cfhowlett - so what's the main issue? disk seems healthy | 04:34 |
cfhowlett | daftykins, note: his cp command failed on i/o error | 04:34 |
daftykins | oh, nasty | 04:34 |
daftykins | maybe worth trying another USB port | 04:34 |
cfhowlett | daftykins, I suspected his external drive was announcing its unfortunate demise ... | 04:35 |
cfhowlett | sheer, try plugging your external drive to a different USB port and test your CP command again | 04:35 |
cfhowlett | daftykins, line 128 of his smartctl output? | 04:36 |
sheer | daftykins, CP command? | 04:37 |
cfhowlett | sheer, cp = copy | 04:37 |
daftykins | that's a new one on me. normally obvious flaws come up in the SMART data table | 04:38 |
cfhowlett | sheer, change your USB port and try again | 04:38 |

bipul | When I am trying to execute this command "echo $JAVA_HOME" inside my terminal. It does not showing me any path. I would like to know why is it not happening? | 04:42 |

daftykins | bipul: export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/ | 04:42 |

droid99 | oww | 05:06 |
sheer | i have a mac only :| | 05:06 |
droid99 | that's OK, plug into your mac .. | 05:07 |
droid99 | copy your required file | 05:07 |
droid99 | prepare your warranty | 05:07 |
sheer | can't | 05:07 |
sheer | nothing shows up in the mac either just EXTERNAL | 05:07 |
droid99 | and back it to factory if it's possible | 05:07 |
sheer | it's NFTS if that matters | 05:08 |
sheer | last opened 1 january 1970 apparently | 05:08 |
cfhowlett | sheer, ubuntu can read NTFS | 05:08 |
cfhowlett | sheer, time travelling HDD - I like it! | 05:08 |
sheer | lol | 05:09 |
sheer | if linux is so great why do i need windows to deal with this :) | 05:09 |
cfhowlett | sheer, linux is not guaranteed against hardware failures ... | 05:09 |
droid99 | yup, the hd is not intended for server use | 05:11 |
droid99 | not surprised, that it'll fail | 05:11 |
sheer | just funny that it fails when i'm about to deal with it | 05:12 |
sheer | and back it up | 05:12 |
sheer | so to back it up I need a drive larger than 1gb and what else? | 05:13 |
cfhowlett | sheer, unplug until you are ready to backup. every read/write on that drive brings it closer to failure | 05:14 |
sheer | oh lol -__- | 05:14 |
sheer | so i've been helping it fail now | 05:14 |
cfhowlett | sheer, well we WERE hoping to be wrong, but as even a USB change doesn't seem to bring it back, I'd say the problem is safely localized to the device itself. sorry about that. | 05:15 |
cfhowlett | sheer, in the future, perhaps a cloud based backup + secondary onsite? for example, dropbox + USB copy of essential files? | 05:16 |
droid99 | sheer, you can return the hd to vendor | 05:18 |
daftykins | larger than 1TB i hope, not 1GB ;) | 05:18 |
sheer | might anyone have a recommendation for excellent external hdd's that won't break? | 05:36 |
sheer | and also non external drives recommendation to back things up safely since i assume non external is safer | 05:37 |
daftykins | i actually am always fond of WD | 05:38 |
daftykins | just go for what you can get with the longest warranty length | 05:38 |
cfhowlett | sheer, WD seems to be the default for external HDD. Get a name brand, not the el cheapo knock-off | 05:38 |
OerHeks | they don't make bad drives anymore | 05:39 |
wafflej0ck | sheer, anything with mechanical parts is subject to and will eventually fail but most drives that fail typically do so in a short period of time after they are first used | 05:42 |
rypervenche | sheer: I always go WD. | 05:43 |
cfhowlett | sheer, this ^^^. also: exactly why you should have 2 or 3 backup options. cloud + a hand USB for the most critical has worked well for me. YMMV | 05:43 |
wafflej0ck | sheer, there is no silver bullet to storage, depending on your needs different types of storage can be better or worse, personally I have a NAS with a couple of WD drives in it that just mirrors for my personal stuff | 05:43 |
wafflej0ck | also most of my important stuff is code so that gets synched to a remote git repository | 05:44 |
wafflej0ck | also use OwnCloud (used to use DropBox but have switched recently) | 05:44 |
wafflej0ck | TarSnap seems like a good option for offsite encrypted backups too again depending on your needs | 05:44 |
gansteed | once ubuntu released, all the packages will NOT upgrade anymore(except security updates), right? | 05:45 |
cfhowlett | gansteed, not necessarily. | 05:45 |
gansteed | cfhowlett: ? | 05:46 |
cfhowlett | gansteed, critical updates, backports, kernel upgrades ... | 05:47 |
cfhowlett | gansteed, for example, the samsung brick upgrade, heartbleed ... | 05:47 |
OerHeks | gansteed, i may hope so packages get updates after release | 05:47 |
gansteed | cfhowlett, got it | 05:48 |
gansteed | OerHeks, i hope so, too. for example, virtualbox, docker and so on | 05:49 |
daftykins | gansteed: there are always PPAs | 05:49 |
duoi_ghost | hi all, how can i have a single command ("sudo service network-manager restart") run on resume from suspend? | 05:50 |
wafflej0ck | gansteed, yeah some of those things will update themselves as well like virtualbox I believe checks on start | 05:50 |
gansteed | i don't like ppas, it's a little bit slow | 05:50 |
daftykins | gansteed: 'slow' ? what? | 05:50 |
gansteed | daftykins, i mean network speed :) | 05:50 |
daftykins | that's highly dependant on a given PPA, so not *ALL* PPAs are necessarily slow | 05:51 |
OerHeks | outside launchpad yes | 05:51 |
wafflej0ck | yeah depends on target server, traffic in between etc. etc. internet speeds are complicated | 05:52 |
gansteed | daftykins, :D | 05:52 |
gansteed | virtualbox PPA in oracle, Docker PPA in docker.io, these 2 are really really slow :( | 05:53 |
wafflej0ck | I don't use a ton of PPAs but when I don't recall ever really thinking about the network performance much though... only thing in recent history I can think of that took some time to install was the ievms script but that downloads a bunch of huge virtual machine images of windows so that's understandable | 05:53 |
gansteed | :] | 05:56 |

mimarcu | Hello | 07:35 |
HarrryW | Ola amego | 07:35 |
mimarcu | Hey I usualy enjoy building things with linux rather than fixing them an one know how to fix kernel panics | 07:37 |
mimarcu | *anyone | 07:37 |
cfhowlett | mimarcu, reboot. choose an earlier kernel that works OR dist-upgrade to update the kernel | 07:38 |
mimarcu | well I kind of need to fix it because I don't have Internet and I'm using a cellot phone to talk to you because the kernal panic is on a cutom router that I built years ago. | 07:40 |
airking | So I have 500GB internal HDD and a 1TB external hdd. My server has 2 SATA plugs. i need to clone the 500GB to the 1TB. could I use my ubuntu liveUSB to do that? and how fast would the transfer be? the way I'm doing it now will take about another 20 hours | 07:41 |
mimarcu | I used clonezilla and it took less than half a day | 07:42 |
airking | jesus | 07:42 |
wafflej0ck | airking, depends on the SATA connection type (II or III) and the drive buffers and speeds among other things you'd need to supply the models at least to find specs on the drives | 07:42 |
airking | thats a long time... | 07:42 |
airking | 7200RPM HGST drives | 07:42 |
airking | thats about all I know | 07:42 |
airking | I'm currently using dd to copy to an external HDD at 8.4MB/s | 07:43 |
ramsub07 | Hi guys I'm not able to get dual monitor setup on ubuntu 13.10, on a hybrid graphic PC working. | 07:43 |
airking | and I'll have to copy to the other drive AGAIN when this is done | 07:43 |
airking | so about 30 hours total wait | 07:43 |
airking | Not asko g for specifics | 07:44 |
Harrryw_ | thats a really long time lol | 07:44 |
airking | I just want to know if its faster to stop now and do thaf | 07:44 |
ramsub07 | xrandr --output VGA1 --auto --right-of LVDS1 --output VGA1 --auto --scale 1x1 | 07:44 |
ramsub07 | command gives the following output: | 07:44 |
ramsub07 | xrandr: cannot find crtc for output VGA1 | 07:44 |
airking | I have about 20 hours more work doing it this way | 07:44 |
mimarcu | maybe I should look for a IRC channel for the linux kernel. | 07:44 |
mimarcu | or general linux | 07:44 |
airking | If we assume SATA 2, would it still be faster? | 07:45 |
airking | This wait is killing me | 07:45 |
airking | I have NOTHING to do | 07:45 |

Cobalt | Hello merry new year. Now I have an Apple Magic Trackpad linked to my desktop via bluetooth. Ubuntu 14.10 erroneously thinks this it has a laptop battery at 18%. I also have a bluetooth keyboard which it thinks is at 0%. It occasionally reports that my device is critically low at 0% and disconnects the trackpad. How do I stop this from happening? | 09:49 |
nomic | they're not standard devices - they're apple -- that is really a pc problem -- maybe ask in #hardware Cobalt | 09:50 |
nomic | not a linux problem - a hardware problem | 09:51 |
Cobalt | nomic: Why are there 3 launchpad bugs filed against this then, with one stating it's been fixed, but with a buggy patch that has some regressions in it? | 09:52 |
Cobalt | nomic: Same issue with other brands of bluetooth devices. | 09:53 |
Cobalt | Specifically I want to know where this event is triggered and then I can turn it off, ie, noticing that the device is at 0% and disconnecting it - there has to be a script that disconnects the device; it has to be hardware agnostic. I need to take down that script. | 09:56 |
shiggitay | Cobalt, that sounds like an annoying issue... I hope you get it resolved. | 10:01 |
edu | can anyone tell me how to install a package from a third party file (like a zip) that I download from a site? | 10:14 |
Cobalt | shiggitay: It is annoying, though not fatal. So yeah, just need to find where this event is triggered and take off the script/rule. | 10:20 |
shiggitay | yeah | 10:20 |
shiggitay | I wish you luck :) | 10:20 |
Cobalt | But I think Linux has gotten so complex now things are difficult to troubleshoot. | 10:21 |
shiggitay | I'm working on something myself that's just as frustrating.... making an initramfs that knows where my tablet's SD card is so I can boot. lol | 10:21 |
Cobalt | Ah. That may be why I never managed to get my SD card reader to work on my netbook. | 10:21 |
shiggitay | haha | 10:22 |
Cobalt | :( Nobody seems to know anything about this event thing. | 10:22 |

Sbur | I have a question about my Ubuntu 14.10 (64 bit) system. When I boot it, it tells me that my screensaver is VERY OLD and invites me to upgrade it. Should I do that, or is it a scam? | 10:57 |
Sbur | one detail ... it is in "Low Latency" mode at the time | 10:57 |
ararob | Sbur, how does it tell you that? | 11:02 |
Sbur | ararob: Popup | 11:02 |
HiddenCloud | hello, I want to make my system trim my root directory on every boot | 11:04 |
HiddenCloud | I've seen that this can be done by putting fstrim -v / in rc.local | 11:04 |
HiddenCloud | but I have /home on a HDD | 11:04 |
HiddenCloud | how do I exempt /home? | 11:04 |
Sbur | ararob: It says "Warnng This version of xscreensaver is VERY OLD! Please upgrade.http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/ (If this is the latest version that your distro ships, then your distro is doing you a disservice. Build from source.)" | 11:06 |
ararob | Sbur, sounds fishy, yes. Only popup i get in ubuntu is when there's an update notice in ubuntu official resporatories. | 11:08 |
Sbur | ararob: But, aside from running clamtk or something like that, how do I get rid of that? | 11:08 |
HiddenCloud | how do I switch to root user again? | 11:12 |
cfhowlett | !root | HiddenCloud, | 11:12 |
ubottu | HiddenCloud,: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 11:12 |
HiddenCloud | yeah I know | 11:13 |
HiddenCloud | but there's a command that lets you switch to other users | 11:13 |
cfhowlett | HiddenCloud, su otheruser | 11:13 |
HiddenCloud | yes thanks | 11:13 |
ararob | Sbur, check your process manager if anything suspicious. kill it, and do "updatedb && locate applicationname", if you're sure that's the one. Then switch to root and delete it. But personally, i'd just reinstall ubuntu, because you never know what else is lurking there. | 11:13 |
kostkon | Sbur, is it ubuntu or some other derivative? | 11:14 |
Sbur | ararob: I'm a n00b with that kind of thing. I am not sure I could find and determine what is suspicious or not. But reinstalling Ubuntu, I can only conceive doing after a backup of my data | 11:15 |
Codmadnesspro | How would I get my .sh script to startup on boot? | 11:16 |
Sbur | kostkon: Ubuntu 14.10 (Low latency) whatever that means | 11:16 |

Sbur | I'm looking if I find xscreensaver in the PIDs | 11:17 |
Sbur | kostkon: ararob: I have an xscreensaver -- no splash. I also see that it is with xfce4 | 11:18 |

=== Yukitteru is now known as Yukinotteru | ||
Sbur | Even if it isn't Ubuntu related ... HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! | 11:19 |
kostkon | Sbur, probably xubuntu (or xubuntu-desktop) comes with xscreensaver by default | 11:19 |
kostkon | Sbur, is it ubuntu or xubuntu? | 11:19 |
Sbur | kostkon: I never installed Xubuntu. I have both Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio on different partitions of the same computer | 11:20 |
kostkon | Sbur, i think studio uses xfce so it must have come from there | 11:20 |
Sbur | kostkon: So killing or uninstalling xscreensaver is a good thing or a dangerous thing to do? | 11:21 |
cfhowlett | Sbur, ubuntustudio uses xfce. as xscreensaver has been proven to conflict with lightdm/locker, I've disabled it | 11:21 |
kostkon | Sbur, it's your choice. neither good nor bad | 11:21 |
Sbur | ok. | 11:22 |
kostkon | Sbur, or what cfhowlett recommends | 11:22 |
cfhowlett | Sbur, screen burnin really isn't that much of a thing on modern monitors | 11:22 |

feurd | Hi. Is it possible to connect my two computers with ssh, in root, both of them having the same ssh key? | 15:13 |
imbezol | feurd: sure. copy the .ssh folder from one to the other | 15:16 |
imbezol | feurd: that is.. /root/.ssh | 15:17 |
imbezol | feurd: you'd make the key on one, and copy it (specifically the id_dsa or id_rsa file) over to the other | 15:17 |
imbezol | feurd: make sure you also replicate the permissions on the folder and files | 15:18 |
feurd | imbezol: well, that's what I did. I sync the /root/ of one onto the other, so they have the same thing. But now I can't connect anymore | 15:18 |
imbezol | feurd: what are you connecting from? | 15:18 |
imbezol | from system 1 to system 2 and vice versa? | 15:19 |
imbezol | or is there a third system that connects to both? | 15:19 |
feurd | I try to connect my desktop to my laptop. It worked before, because they both had their key. Then I synced my desktop onto my laptop, so they now have the exact same /root/ folder. But I can't establish a connection anymore | 15:19 |
BluesKaj_ | feurd, whynot just use normal ssh from one to the other | 15:19 |
feurd | no third system | 15:20 |
feurd | it's a root to root connection, so I need a keyed conneciton | 15:20 |
imbezol | feurd: what's the log say? it should tell you why the key was not accepted | 15:20 |
BluesKaj_ | feurd, seems you made the connection more complicated than it needs to be | 15:20 |
imbezol | feurd: or try with ssh -v to get more verbose messaging | 15:20 |
feurd | actually, it does not even ask me for a key passphrase. Just the standard password. | 15:21 |
imbezol | feurd: that's like it's way of telling you it's not using the key. that usually indicates the permissions are not correct | 15:21 |
imbezol | feurd: that will get logged so you can check to be sure | 15:21 |
feurd | Previously, when I attempted a connection, it asked for the key passphrase. Now, it just asks for the session password. But in root, it's not sufficient. | 15:21 |
imbezol | feurd: yup. check the perms first | 15:22 |
feurd | But I connect in root. So I have all permissions. No? | 15:22 |
feurd | Oooh | 15:23 |
feurd | maybe I should add the pub key in the authirized_keys file? | 15:23 |
imbezol | unless you check the log it's guesswork | 15:23 |
feurd | where can I see the log? | 15:24 |
imbezol | /var/log/syslog | 15:24 |
imbezol | or /var/log/auth.log | 15:24 |
imbezol | but yeah.. if you overwrote the authorized_keys file you'll need to fix it | 15:25 |
feurd | nothing in the log by the way | 15:25 |
feurd | not this one at least | 15:26 |
=== Guest47744 is now known as sherlock_regus | ||
imbezol | ok. probably the keys file then | 15:26 |
imbezol | it's the server that logs it | 15:26 |
imbezol | but if you run the client with ssh -v then you'll see it request key auth and what the server answered | 15:26 |
MoltenSlag | ramchandra: I'm using like 10% of the partition, I don't want to copy 90% of empty encrypted data | 15:27 |
ramchandra | resize it and then copy? | 15:27 |
MoltenSlag | ramchandra: good call, I'll try this way then, thanks | 15:28 |
feurd | imbezol: It worked. | 15:29 |
imbezol | great | 15:29 |
imbezol | feurd: how are you syncing /root? | 15:30 |
imbezol | feurd: would it make more sense to sync just a couple directories within so you don't overwrite? | 15:30 |
imbezol | feurd: or you can use something like rsync to do the sync and tell it to exclude the .ssh directory | 15:31 |
feurd | imbezol: well, right, I don't know what's the best option. If they have the same key, I can do exactly the same things with both. | 15:32 |
feurd | imbezol: I just created the sync script. I'm still wondering how to configure it the best | 15:34 |
imbezol | feurd: unless you need all the hidden folders etc in there just sync a subdir or two | 15:34 |
imbezol | feurd: or use rsync.. | 15:35 |
feurd | I already use rsync | 15:35 |
imbezol | feurd: --exclude=.ssh/ | 15:35 |
feurd | I know. But then, all the keys in authorized_keys and known_hosts would not be shared, which means that I could not estabish the same connections with my laptop and my desktop | 15:37 |
imbezol | feurd: --exclude=.ssh/authorized_keys | 15:37 |
imbezol | feurd: up to you :D | 15:37 |
feurd | I'll see what is the more practical | 15:38 |
imbezol | you can put a system's own key in there too | 15:38 |
imbezol | so you could just create an authorized_keys that has both their keys | 15:38 |
imbezol | but since the private keys are the same too... probably the same anyways | 15:38 |
BluesKaj_ | feurd, no need to be root, just share the required files on each computer then run ssh from one to the other , it's really quite simple | 15:39 |
feurd | BluesKaj_: I need to be in root to sync the root folder | 15:39 |
BluesKaj_ | but why ? | 15:39 |
feurd | well, if I don't connect to the root session of the other computer, then I don't have access to files | 15:40 |
imbezol | i guess the question is what are you doing as root that you need to sync the files across? | 15:40 |
BluesKaj_ | you just ne3ed to share those files | 15:40 |
=== niexukang__ is now known as niexukang | ||
imbezol | normally you'd work as a normal user where your files are accessible by them rather than root | 15:41 |
imbezol | generally you're not working on documents etc as root | 15:41 |
SchrodingersScat | I am also concerned by that. | 15:42 |
feurd | Sorry, I'm a bit lost. My goal is for my two computers to have (partially at least) the same root folder. And I don't think I can achieve that without connecting in root. Am I wrong? | 15:42 |
imbezol | why the root folder though? | 15:43 |
feurd | Well, first, to have the same settings on both | 15:43 |
penna | is there any trick when I have installed libstdc++.so.6 and a program complains: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found | 15:44 |
penna | glibc installed too | 15:44 |
imbezol | feurd: same settings for what? | 15:44 |
feurd | share the same scripts | 15:44 |
feurd | the same aliases | 15:44 |
BluesKaj_ | did somebody advise you to share the root folder between pcs? | 15:44 |
Jpmh | if I switch using ctrl-alt-F1 why does this stop the processes that are working in my graphics ctrl-alt-f7 login | 15:44 |
feurd | I find it pretty conveniant. Is it that bad? | 15:45 |
imbezol | feurd: for scripts you might want to do something like create a /usr/local/sbin/ directory, put them there, and sync that folder | 15:45 |
BluesKaj_ | Jpmh, try ctrl+alt+F8 | 15:45 |
imbezol | feurd: that is, assuming these are scripts you need to run as root for some reason | 15:45 |
feurd | I have scripts that I launch in root mode | 15:45 |
imbezol | feurd: it's your system so you can do as you like of course but i'm just curious what the heck you're doing as root all the time lol | 15:46 |
Jpmh | BluesKaj_: 1) I do not believe that I have such a task and 2) even if I did, why? | 15:46 |
imbezol | feurd: so much so that you're doing root on both systems all the time | 15:46 |
feurd | Who said I was in root all the time? I just have several scripts, aliases, etc, that I have in root, and I would prefer to sync them. For all the rest, I use my standard account. | 15:48 |
BluesKaj_ | Jpmh, when you drop to a TTY/VT usually the return to desktop is ctrl+alt+F7, works ok here but I don't run unity so i'm still on X server here | 15:48 |
=== LazyO|off is now known as LazyO|Off | ||
Jpmh | BluesKaj_: yes, I am aware of that. My question is why does the F7 process get paused, this is a multi user, multi processing OS | 15:49 |
feurd | For example, I've seen that to backup the entire system with rsync, it's better to run it in root to guarantee the permissions remain the same | 15:50 |
BluesKaj_ | Jpmh, dunno why , that's new one one on me | 15:51 |

daftykins | hi | 15:56 |
guest-4ODtLa | I think I've reached a critical situation after forgetting my password for Ubuntu 12.04 system | 15:56 |
guest-4ODtLa | I found a solution | 15:57 |
guest-4ODtLa | http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/09/recover-lost-passwords-in-ubuntu-12-04-recovery-mode/ | 15:57 |
guest-4ODtLa | Can I get some help regarding this? I'm not sure about using command: mount -rw -o remount / | 15:58 |
nomic | live CD. | 15:58 |
guest-4ODtLa | Is there any threat to data? | 15:58 |
daftykins | guest-4ODtLa: it's enabling write access so you can change the password, has to be done | 15:58 |
daftykins | just do it :P | 15:58 |
imbezol | guest-4ODtLa: when you boot into recovery mode the / partition is set read only.. that just sets it read write so it can remember the password change you do | 15:58 |
guest-4ODtLa | daftykins, So I can just go ahead with that link? imbezol | 15:59 |
guest-4ODtLa | and shoot those commands? | 15:59 |
daftykins | your alternative is: none | 15:59 |
guest-4ODtLa | Don't scare me -_- | 15:59 |
guest-4ODtLa | Say yes/no? | 15:59 |
imbezol | guest-4ODtLa: you can't set a new password without writing to the drive | 16:00 |
guest-4ODtLa | Is my data safe? | 16:00 |
imbezol | guest-4ODtLa: by your tone it sounds like this data is very important | 16:00 |
daftykins | just get on with it :) | 16:00 |
guest-4ODtLa | imbezol, Just confirm that everything will remain the same as it was before | 16:01 |
guest-4ODtLa | daftykins, Ok | 16:01 |
guest-4ODtLa | imbezol, Indeed, it is! | 16:01 |

KamalKaur | imbezol: Hey! | 16:15 |
KamalKaur | I got my things there only :D | 16:16 |
SleePy | My Ubuntu server keeps crashing. I just watched it do it again. Doesn't even shutdown just looks like a power loss. Is there a place I can look in the logs to try and see if something got logged before power was completely lost? | 16:16 |
KamalKaur | imbezol: But loast some settings | 16:17 |
KamalKaur | lost* | 16:17 |
ikonia | SleePy: if it's a power loss, it's not an ubuntu problem | 16:17 |
SleePy | Hasn't crashed since I removed the storage array. | 16:17 |
ikonia | SleePy: ubuntu can't log anything if the power is going | 16:17 |
=== KamalKaur is now known as guest-4ODtLa | ||
SleePy | Darn. Motherboard doesn't log those entries either :| Guess its a good old manual ignore the raid alerts and test each drive one by one. | 16:17 |
guest-4ODtLa | imbezol: There? | 16:18 |
imbezol | SleePy: likely a power supply issue | 16:18 |
imbezol | guest-4ODtLa: you don't lose settings by changing your password so something else caused that | 16:18 |
guest-4ODtLa | imbezol: I'm unable to change brightness | 16:19 |
ikonia | SleePy: ignore raid alerts ? | 16:19 |
guest-4ODtLa | and icon size goes to default | 16:19 |
SleePy | ikonia: I removed my storage drives. 4 1TB drives in a raid 10 | 16:19 |
ikonia | SleePy: how where you configuring the raid on them ? | 16:20 |
SleePy | When Ubuntu is up, it shows them resyncing, but not rebuilding | 16:20 |
SleePy | mdadm | 16:20 |
ikonia | why do you expect them to rebuild ? | 16:20 |
ikonia | they should not be rebuilding | 16:20 |
SleePy | I don't expect them to. But I just noticed the status was active, resyncing | 16:20 |
ikonia | why is that bad ? | 16:20 |
imbezol | SleePy: it probably doesn't crash without the drives because of the lowered power requirements | 16:21 |
SleePy | Well the server hasn't crashed since I removed the drives. By logic, putting the drives back it will crash once the array is up and it tries to start syncing again | 16:21 |
imbezol | SleePy: try a new / bigger power supply | 16:21 |
SleePy | 700 watt power supply for 4 full size drives, 2 laptop drives (raid 1 OS) and 3 fans | 16:21 |
SleePy | It should be plenty. Has been running 5 months with this configuration no problem | 16:22 |
imbezol | SleePy: video card is one of the biggest users.. but even if it "should" be enough.. they do die on occasion | 16:22 |
ikonia | SleePy: does the power just die on it, or does it reboot ? | 16:22 |
SleePy | No video card in this. Onboard only | 16:22 |
SleePy | Its losing power. I see the fans spin down and then spin up as it auto restarts | 16:22 |
ikonia | it's losing power ? | 16:23 |
imbezol | i've said my piece. good luck :) | 16:23 |
ikonia | does the power just cut, or does it reboot | 16:23 |
SleePy | Seems like it. I'm not losing power where its at because the TV is plugged into the same outlet and hasn't turned off | 16:23 |
SleePy | Power cut it seems like it. | 16:23 |
ikonia | SleePy: so it just powers down, and you have to power it back on ? | 16:23 |
SleePy | Ubuntu doesn't go through the shutdown phase, I just see video lost and then the bios screen | 16:24 |
ikonia | so it's rebooting then | 16:24 |
ikonia | it's resetting | 16:24 |
SleePy | It auto reboots on power failure | 16:24 |
ikonia | SleePy: turn off auto reboot in the bios | 16:24 |
ikonia | SleePy: then put the drives back in | 16:24 |
ikonia | it's important to know what's actually happening | 16:24 |
everetthitchh | hi | 16:25 |
anomaly6 | :) | 16:26 |
koyunbaba | hi! i have a problem with xubuntu 14.04, the notification icon of dropbox is always missing! I can't find the solution on web...can anyone help me? | 16:27 |
SleePy | Actually, I have "Restore on AC/Power loss" set to "Power Off" | 16:29 |
ikonia | SleePy: so that sounds like a panic | 16:29 |
SleePy | So it would have to be rebooting I think, but its a instant reboot like somebody is hitting the reset | 16:29 |
ikonia | as opposed to a power loss | 16:29 |
ikonia | look in the syslog to check the status of what it's been doing | 16:29 |
ikonia | SleePy: do you have a monitor/screen on this system | 16:29 |
glob | koyunbaba: type lspci | 16:30 |
SleePy | ikonia: I just hooked it up over vga. It has a HDMI hookup to the screen, but overscan issues on my tv prevent me from using hdmi during bios configs | 16:31 |
ikonia | I suggest you monitor the screen | 16:31 |
SleePy | Yes | 16:31 |
SleePy | I also have pings going and they drop out | 16:31 |
koyunbaba | http://pastebin.com/eAtg4Wvp | 16:31 |
ikonia | of course they will drop | 16:32 |
ikonia | you're system is powering off | 16:32 |
ikonia | what do you expect ?? what good is pinging the machine ? | 16:32 |
SleePy | Well when I was watching movies in the other room and they stopped working, it was my basic tests to see what was going on | 16:32 |
ikonia | watch the screen and see if there is any message such as a panic when it reboots | 16:33 |
jagmeet | hello there Happy new year! I have accidently deleted my data from my home folder in ubuntu. Can you please suggest me some procedure to recover it. | 16:33 |
ikonia | also let the raid arrays rebuild, do nothing on the system until they are in a clean state | 16:33 |
vrooom | Is it easy to change from Unity to Gnome? I really dislike Unity. | 16:33 |
SleePy | There are none, just goes black and then the ASUS bios screen shows up | 16:33 |
imbezol | jagmeet: backups are likely your only option | 16:33 |
vrooom | Is it just the graphics or what happens to all my files when I change? | 16:33 |
imbezol | vrooom: you can have several different desktop environments installed and switch freely between them | 16:34 |
imbezol | vrooom: if you find you don't like gnome you can switch back to unity | 16:34 |
jagmeet | imbezol, is there any recovery software or like that for ubuntu? | 16:35 |
imbezol | jagmeet: it's more dependent on the filesystem than the distro | 16:35 |
imbezol | jagmeet: you can do some googling on the particular filesystem you're using for your homedir but i think you'll find you're out of luck | 16:35 |
imbezol | jagmeet: unless you had backups or some sort of cloud solution | 16:36 |
loostro | how can I create my own home server and create virtual machines on it, which would be accessible from outside (WAN)? | 16:36 |
loostro | currenlty I have an ubuntu server, with apache/php/other stuff on it | 16:37 |
loostro | i'd like to move all the "apps needed for my website" inside a virtual box | 16:37 |
loostro | to keep the "host machine" as "clean" (without additional software) as possible | 16:37 |
teward | loostro: two options in VBox: Bridged Adapter netowrking, or Double-NAT | 16:38 |
teward | s/in VBox/with VBox/ | 16:38 |
guest-4ODtLa | imbezol: This light will take my eye sight -_- | 16:38 |
guest-4ODtLa | I'm unable to change brightness from anywhere | 16:38 |
jagmeet | imbezol, okey can you please suggest me some software, which can recover data on filesystem ext4? | 16:38 |
teward | loostro: if you create the individual virtual machines with bridged networking then your home router sees the VMs as individual devices | 16:38 |
loostro | does this require additional hardware? (specialised router or something)? or is it all software installed on my host machine? | 16:39 |
SleePy | Well now it won't even get past the bios. Not an Ubuntu issue at all.. Seems like power supply or a bad drive | 16:39 |
teward | loostro: if you use double NAT, then you port-forward to the host machine, and on the host machine you set up NAT rules in VirtualBox to forward further into the VMs | 16:39 |
teward | loostro: any standard router works, it's all part of VirtualBox,. | 16:39 |
imbezol | guest-4ODtLa: i don't have the answer for that | 16:39 |
guest-4ODtLa | :( | 16:39 |
loostro | OK, is it avaliable for free? or does it require some payed/advanced version of the software? | 16:39 |

imbezol | jagmeet: you'll probably want to backup your system before using those tools | 16:42 |
imbezol | jagmeet: they may do funky things to your filesystem | 16:42 |
imbezol | jagmeet: just don't write anything to the affected filesystem | 16:42 |

xeniphon | The video in chrome is very nice and smooth, but all the window decorations are gone; panel is gone, launcher is gone. | 17:32 |
xeniphon | I attempted to fall back on an old standard (twm) and found that something in the Unity collection of *stuff* has completely claimed the menu bar and moved it away, so even TWM is more challenging than it should be. | 17:33 |
foxlet | th3_mol3: If you mean the applet under the volume menu, as far as I know, no. | 17:35 |
rayq | th3_mol3: see this link http://askubuntu.com/a/468839 | 17:35 |

xeniphon | when unity crashes and I can't manipulate any windows, I attempted to bring up _any_ window manager to help me get around. | 17:35 |

th3_mol3 | ty foxlet, rayq | 17:37 |
xeniphon | My standard tricks - CTRL-ALT-Backspace --- init 3; init 5; -- mwm... None of them help me get out of whatever wedged process I have, and Unity is a complex beasty indeed. | 17:37 |
daftykins | xeniphon: probably because zapping is disabled as default, ubuntu doesn't use runlevels and so on | 17:38 |
jhutchins | xeniphon: init 3 = init 5 in ubuntu. | 17:38 |
Seveas | xeniphon: c-a-bksp has been disabled eons ago, and runlevels don't matter anymore either. So all those things are no-ops. | 17:38 |
xeniphon | daftykins, jhutchins; I get it. Fine... | 17:39 |
Seveas | time to drag yourself into the 2010's :) | 17:39 |
xeniphon | I still get rather well and wedged. I hate that CTRL-ALT-F1, CTRL-ALT-DEL is my MOST EFFICIENT way to get back in operation. I want to find the broken piece and fix it. | 17:39 |
daftykins | you can still get to TTYs and restart lightdm | 17:40 |

xeniphon | jhutchins: and for clarity, Chrome does not crash. Chrome continues to run and play videos. The screen blanks out for a moment and the panel, launcher and "window chrome" go away. | 17:49 |
NinjaCowboy | vrooom: You should have this icon in the launcher. http://tinyurl.com/p6llhcw If you don't, you probably have to install ccsm and change some settings. | 17:49 |
Seveas | xeniphon: anything in dmesg or the xorg log? Sounds like a driver hang followed by a unity crash. | 17:49 |

xeniphon | Seveas: 14.10 (upgraded from previous versions - I think I started at 13.04 with this machine. The 14.04 upgrade made all kinds of messes I am still working through.) | 17:57 |
Seveas | I'd suggest a reinstall with a fresh 14.10. That helped in my case. | 17:58 |
xeniphon | On my work machines that would be absolutely the thing to do. On my learning machine this is exactly how I keep skills up... find the problem and FIX IT ;-) | 17:58 |
feurd | Is there a command line to move a file to a destination, and directy go to that destination with the terminal? | 17:59 |
EriC^^ | feurd: make an alias | 17:59 |
davido_ | I asked this a few days ago but it scrolled away before anyone really noticed.... My mouse scroll wheel works only intermittently in Ubuntu. This started recently. I have verified it works fine elsewhere, thus ruling out hardware as the issue. | 18:00 |
xeniphon | Seveas: ( I can't tell you the number of oddities that cropped up by 1- using Likewise on 13.04, then 2- likewise is gone and I've moved back to winbindd in 14 - mostly user-account issues, but still) | 18:00 |
feurd | EriC^^: Ok thanks. I just wanted to be sure I was not missing something before creating an alias | 18:00 |
feurd | I don't know how to create such an alias though... | 18:01 |
Seveas | mingw32-binutils: /usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-windres | 18:01 |
davido_ | By intermittently I mean a window will scroll a few clicks and then stop scrolling. | 18:01 |
davido_ | Quite annoying; you don't realize how much you use the scroll wheel until it stops working. | 18:02 |
feurd | davido_: I had the same issue with my mouse. I changed for an other one and it was ok. So it might be a driver issue. | 18:02 |
feurd | Is it a razer or a cybord by any chance? | 18:03 |
davido_ | feurd Possibly, but if so, it's been introduced as a regression, because it worked fine from 2011 until last week. | 18:03 |
davido_ | feurd: just the generic one that came with the pc years ago. | 18:03 |
davido_ | (I'm not that into hardware :) | 18:04 |
feurd | Mhmm ok. So probably not a driver issue :( | 18:04 |
davido_ | well, it still could be, but it would indicate a bug that came with an update along the way. | 18:04 |
=== netfox is now known as Guest69723 | ||

davido_ | Who knows what the kernel dev team have done recently ;) | 18:06 |

davido_ | It's not hard to imagine a tweak here could have an unintended (and untested) effect there. | 18:07 |

g105b | I'm a bit confused about all the different desktop environments out there... is Ubuntu currently using Gnome in any way? | 18:32 |
jrtappers | Is there an easy way to tell which company is at fault for a server not being accessible from one connection, but available from others? | 18:32 |
rwp | jrtappers, Observe the routes using traceroute. See where one works and one doesn't. Point fingers then. | 18:33 |
jrtappers | rwp, Thats about where I am | 18:33 |
rwp | g105b, You can always install GNOME or KDE or LXDE or XFCE or whatever but the default at install time is Unity. | 18:33 |
monst | after displaying an image to TTY1 with fbi, how can I reset back to console? | 18:33 |
k1l_ | g105b: unity is based on gnome. if you want gnome-shell as standard see the gnome edition. | 18:33 |
g105b | rwp: ok I just thought Unity was the launcher on top of Gnome... it looks similar. | 18:33 |
g105b | k1l_: I see | 18:34 |
rwp | Regarding routing... On the larger Internet everything is mostly handled with handled with BGP to dynamically route around breakage. But sometimes it is broken anyway. | 18:34 |
k1l_ | g105b: it is a shell for gnome like gnome-shell is. just another shell :) | 18:34 |
jrtappers | Having to use ssh over ssh tunnel to access the server... | 18:34 |
g105b | What is the global/local menu feature a part of.... is that gnome? | 18:34 |
rwp | g105b, Looking similar is only an indication that they were influenced by similar ideas. It is quite different code. | 18:34 |
k1l_ | g105b: you mean the menue bar? that is unity, which is a compiz plugin | 18:35 |
g105b | k1l_: now you see why I'm confused :) compiz comes from where? | 18:35 |
pl1x | any idea why the fan only runs loud when i use ubuntu/linux on my toshiba tecra notebook? | 18:35 |
k1l_ | g105b: compiz is back from the gnome2 times. it was used for the 3d cube etc eyecandy stuff. gnome has mutter for that since gnome3. | 18:36 |
k1l_ | but unity still uses compiz even on the gnome3 base. the gnome shell uses mutter for that stuff. | 18:37 |
bug_sniper | how much disk space does ubuntu desktop take? | 18:38 |
OerHeks | bug_sniper, 7 gb+ | 18:38 |
bug_sniper | I see | 18:38 |
bug_sniper | maybe I'll install the server instead or just go with puppy linux | 18:39 |
g105b | k1l_: so on the whole, compiz is just hanging around for the odd feature here and there? | 18:39 |
feurd | I don't know if someone here uses i3, but when I have 3 windows in a row, how can I stack only twho of them? | 18:40 |
k1l_ | g105b: no. unity was build "inside" compiz so they need to keep it even on the gnome 3 base. for the new unity8 (which will work on MIR) there will be no compiz involved. its just that for the old x-server unity no one wanted to do the complete rewrite. | 18:40 |
g105b | I think I understand, thanks. | 18:41 |

Giwrgaras | maybe 2007? | 18:45 |

vrooom | How do I install CCSM? | 18:46 |
blackangelpr | Giwrgaras, just curious what do you do in office that you cant do in libreoffice? | 18:47 |
xangua | go to software centre and install compiz settings vrooom | 18:48 |
k1l_ | vrooom: ccsm is for advanced users. you can break your desktop system with that. better use unity-tweak-tool | 18:49 |

bekks | 7F1ACDQDF: Do you have a specific support question? If so, then just feel free to ask it :) | 18:52 |
7F1ACDQDF | bekks, that requires someone that uses and knows deluge first | 18:53 |
Giwrgaras | blackangelpr: | 18:53 |

Giwrgaras | also ms excel | 18:53 |
Giwrgaras | and powerpoint ofcourse | 18:53 |
k1l_ | 7F1ACDQDF: ok, then wait until someone raises a voice and says he uses it and stay silent for that time. or you could just ask the question and see if someone can help. | 18:53 |
Giwrgaras | i rely heavily on onenote and i see no good alternative on ubuntu unfortunately | 18:54 |
k1l_ | 7F1ACDQDF: (hint: 2nd way works better on irc) | 18:54 |
bekks | Giwrgaras: Evernote. | 18:54 |

7F1ACDQDF | bekks, k1l_ i think you are wrong. | 18:56 |
bekks | 7F1ACDQDF: Good luck then. | 18:56 |
7F1ACDQDF | bekks, you were not providing any | 18:57 |
Giwrgaras | blackangelpr: thanks. i tried to use the online solution but it doesnt compare to the real one. Also the other programs also are not good alternatives. I think wine is a good solution | 18:57 |
marshal0505 | 7F1ACDQDF: He tried helping you but you refused | 18:58 |
7F1ACDQDF | marshal0505, he helped nothing | 18:59 |
7F1ACDQDF | marshal0505, instead vroom contacted me in private because he was using deluge | 18:59 |
7F1ACDQDF | vrooom, I found the solution. You need to use complete allocation to be able to change file priorities | 19:00 |
vrooom | Maybe workspaces isnt what i thought? | 19:00 |
vrooom | I want a separate desktop for programming and surfing | 19:00 |
vrooom | I canot do that | 19:00 |
vrooom | i have the workspace symbol in bottom right, using gnome on 14.04 | 19:00 |
k1l_ | vrooom: what ubuntu exactly? what desktop in use? | 19:00 |
bekks | vrooom: Which desktop environment do you use, then? | 19:00 |
bekks | Ah, gnome. Didnt use that as a desktop for years now, sorry. | 19:01 |
vrooom | if I click Preferences and add to the nbr of workspaces it doesnt do anything | 19:01 |
vrooom | bah | 19:01 |
vrooom | i go back to unity maybe7 | 19:01 |

johnb003 | I have 4x drives which I'd like to use as part of a raid and to add a few more drives in the process of setting up my raid. Do I need all the discs to be the same size? | 20:21 |
[R] | i guess thats easiest | 20:21 |
johnb003 | or can the new ones be bigger? will it impact the raid? I'm thinking Raid-Z or something | 20:22 |
bekks | johnb003: Technically, no. But the you will be wasting the delta of the bigger disks. | 20:22 |
bekks | johnb003: RAIDZ is something which is available using ZFS only. In case of ZFS, you should redesign your approach, since it works fdifferently from conventional RAID solutions. | 20:22 |
johnb003 | well, I currently am not using a hardware raid, nor a fs based raid | 20:23 |
johnb003 | I have a backup-style raid | 20:23 |
johnb003 | it does a snapshot every so often to form the pairty | 20:23 |
johnb003 | I don't really like it though, it seems fragile | 20:24 |
bekks | johnb003: That makes no sense: "it does a snapshot every so often to form the parity". | 20:24 |
johnb003 | the concept is that the data doesn't change much | 20:24 |
johnb003 | but after thinking about it I have the same problem with it | 20:24 |
johnb003 | that you're intuitively having | 20:24 |
johnb003 | that's why I want to change it | 20:24 |
bekks | johnb003: However, using ZFS, you should get yourself more deeper into the specifics of RAIDZ1-3 | 20:24 |
johnb003 | would you recommend anything other than ZFS? | 20:25 |
upyeclipse | zermelo frankel set system? | 20:25 |
upyeclipse | system->theory | 20:25 |
bekks | johnb003: I'd recommend a hardware RAID or ZFS. | 20:25 |

Guest9830 | Hi everyone! I'm trying to setup an IRC on my server. I'm using XChat and it keeps saying I have to install identd (?) after I tried installing . Can someone guide me a little bit ? | 20:26 |
johnb003 | ok I'll go read about RAIDZI-3 | 20:26 |
johnb003 | was the i a typo? | 20:27 |
bekks | johnb003: Yes :) | 20:27 |
[R] | Guest9830: sounds like you should properly configure your server to not require identd | 20:27 |
bekks | johnb003: you can start here: http://zfsonlinux.org/docs.html | 20:27 |
Guest9830 | Guest9830 is that a safe thing to do? | 20:27 |

[R] | well no sane server requires it to begin with... | 20:28 |
johnb003 | bekks: one of my big questions is will I be able to setup my raid with data on the drives currently? | 20:28 |
johnb003 | I may double my storage to be able to do it... | 20:28 |
daftykins | you may notice in most connection logs, it reads "got no ident response" | 20:28 |
bekks | johnb003: No, thats impossible. | 20:28 |
bekks | johnb003: And impossible regardless of ZFS. | 20:28 |
johnb003 | can't be impossible :P | 20:28 |
johnb003 | can I grow my raid after I create it? | 20:29 |
bekks | johnb003: Well, so invent, copyright, trademark and sell it :) | 20:29 |
bekks | johnb003: Depending on the specifics of your RAID, you may be able to grow it afterwards. | 20:29 |
johnb003 | if I double the storage and setup the new raid with the new storage, then copy all the data in from the initial drives. | 20:30 |
johnb003 | Once added, I can then wipe the old drives and add them on to the raid | 20:30 |
johnb003 | that's my thinking anyway | 20:30 |
bekks | johnb003: Thats depends on the specifics of your raid. | 20:30 |
johnb003 | ok | 20:30 |

rmajkla | heyo | 21:18 |
helasraizam | ikonia: I think that's where the problem is. Kernel panic means grub couldn't get to Arch to begin with, and that's what I'd like to troubleshoot | 21:18 |
ikonia | helasraizam: you're wrong | 21:18 |
ikonia | helasraizam: kernel panic means it's got to arch and booted the kernel | 21:18 |
bekks | helasraizam: Thats wrong. | 21:18 |
ikonia | hence "kernel panic" | 21:18 |
ikonia | it's booted the arch kernel - and it's panicing = arch problem | 21:19 |
bekks | helasraizam: Arch is unable to identify the block device you specified to be the root filesystem. Thats a Arch linux problem, and has nothing to do with grub/ubuntu. | 21:19 |
bekks | helasraizam: From what I've read in here this evening, it seems to be a broken kernel update in Archlinux. So please contact the Archlinux support. | 21:20 |
plut0 | depmod is throwing a 'Bus error', how do i fix this? | 21:20 |
helasraizam | Ah. I just came from #archlinux-newbie and they were under the impression that a module may have been missing or something from the Ubuntu side. So you're saying that Grub has identified and booted Arch to get me this error? | 21:20 |
ikonia | helasraizam: no | 21:20 |
ikonia | helasraizam: because it's booting the arch kernel | 21:20 |
ikonia | so it's the arch kernel that's panicing | 21:20 |
Bashing-om | erisco: Good point ! .. ok, can you boot to grub's boot menu .. and try and boot to terminal by editing the boot parameter line ? ( e key -> replace quiet splash with the term text, ctl+x to continue the boot process ) . | 21:20 |

pryorda | 14.04.1 | 22:27 |
wafflej0ck | pryorda, you may want to pull up a separate terminal and run top to see what process is using the CPU assuming it's some processing that's slowing things down | 22:29 |
pryorda | again i have to step away for so long before it does it again | 22:29 |
wafflej0ck | pryorda, Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a text terminal then Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to the X/GUI display | 22:29 |
pryorda | its only via ssh | 22:30 |
wafflej0ck | maybe some connectivity issue in that case too, not sure though I'm on 14.04.1 on my server too and it doesn't seem to have this problem, how long is the delay? | 22:30 |
bekks | pryorda: Thats the DNS resolution that sshd is trying to perform. You can disable that in the sshd settings. | 22:31 |
wafflej0ck | that said I use a key based login not password not sure if that makes a difference | 22:31 |
pryorda | bekks: tried UseDNS no and yes | 22:31 |
pryorda | no dif | 22:31 |
pryorda | wafflej0ck: 5-10s sometimes | 22:32 |
utox | !list | 22:32 |
pryorda | wafflej0ck: i use key based as well | 22:32 |
ubottu | utox: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 22:32 |
wafflej0ck | you connect with IP or DNS? might be worth trying by IP to see if it's related to DNS since I imagine that would eliminate the possibiliity | 22:33 |
bekks | 5-10s? I thought you were talking about a long pause. | 22:33 |
Bashing-om | plut0: Where are you getting the initrd.img error advisory ? | 22:33 |
pryorda | that is a long pause | 22:33 |
pryorda | considering all my other vms login instantly | 22:33 |
wafflej0ck | agree 5-10 seconds isn't a huge deal but am curious why the delay | 22:33 |
pryorda | centos 7 is instant | 22:33 |
wafflej0ck | my AWS instance I'm in within 2 seconds from running my connection script | 22:34 |
pryorda | sec | 22:34 |
pryorda | pastebin.ca/2895563 | 22:37 |
pryorda | thats with putting my password in | 22:38 |
paul__ | Hi | 22:39 |
paul__ | Does anyone know how to get the Azbuka Cyrillic keyboard layout to work? | 22:40 |
paul__ | http://hypertext.su/azbuka-keyboard/?lang=en | 22:41 |
wad | I'm using 14.04, does this document apply? I can't seem to find this menu. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu | 22:45 |
xangua | wad yes, just type printer in the dash | 22:46 |
* wad tries | 22:46 | |
OerHeks | first thing i check is the date at the end of the page | 22:47 |
pryorda | wafflej0ck: could it be bash-completion doing its inital cache | 22:47 |
pryorda | and its just expiring? | 22:47 |
wafflej0ck | pryorda, suppose so but really not sure where you'd want to look next, I mean iotop, ntop, top/htop are typically my go to for performance things but since it's intermittent that makes it more difficult to debug | 22:49 |
wafflej0ck | also since it's a pretty short window for the delay it may be hard to see when that's happening exactly, would be better to have tools like top that can run over time but I'm not aware of any | 22:50 |
wafflej0ck | probably exists though nothing is coming to mind | 22:50 |
upyeclipse | cp ~/dev/micropython/my_project /media/staffan/PYBFLASH | 22:56 |
upyeclipse | cp: omitting directory ‘/home/staffan/dev/micropython/my_project’ | 22:56 |
upyeclipse | what am i doing wrong? | 22:56 |
SchrodingersScat | man cp # look for -R for recursive | 22:56 |
upyeclipse | actually i dont want to copy the dir but rather all files in the dir | 22:57 |
upyeclipse | is there an easy way to do that? | 22:57 |
SchrodingersScat | then you can probably use * | 22:57 |
upyeclipse | cp ~/dev/micropython/my_project/* /media/staffan/PYBFLASH ? | 22:58 |
upyeclipse | yes | 22:58 |
upyeclipse | that worked | 22:58 |
upyeclipse | ty | 22:58 |
SchrodingersScat | great | 22:58 |
knobo | Can anyone help me with this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2251730 | 22:59 |
knobo | I get libGL error: Version 4 or later of flush extension not found when I start glxgears | 22:59 |
knobo | and "libGL error: failed to load driver: i915" | 23:00 |
SchrodingersScat | upyeclipse: that will skip files that start with . though, and also not copy directories. | 23:00 |
upyeclipse | ok files that start with '.' is not a problem but directories might be. | 23:02 |
daftykins | knobo: what graphics hardware? what driver is in use? | 23:02 |
upyeclipse | i guess there is a way to copy everything? | 23:02 |
upyeclipse | how do unmount a flash drive? | 23:02 |
daftykins | sudo umount /mount/point -or- /dev/sdX | 23:03 |
knobo | daftykins: how do I find out? lshw... I'll try | 23:05 |
daftykins | lspci | 23:05 |
daftykins | driver, i would read /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 23:05 |
upyeclipse | daftykins, an point=path? | 23:06 |
daftykins | upyeclipse: a mount point is the path it is available on yes | 23:07 |
knobo | daftykins: something like this: II) intel(0): Using Kernel Mode Setting driver: i915, version 1.6.0 20080730 | 23:07 |
knobo | display:0 product: Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller | 23:07 |
daftykins | knobo: "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" might be easier for me to see what i'm thinking of. what kernel are you on also? | 23:07 |
upyeclipse | sudo umount /media/staffan/PYBFLASH | 23:07 |
knobo | configuration: driver=i915 latency=0 | 23:07 |
upyeclipse | daftykins, should the /mount/point be replaced entiely like that ^ | 23:08 |
upyeclipse | nothing happens... | 23:08 |
daftykins | upyeclipse: Linux doesn't make it known when a command succeeds | 23:08 |
knobo | daftykins: Linux integer 3.16.0-28-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 12 17:38:37 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux | 23:08 |
daftykins | upyeclipse: type "mount" or "df -h" to recognise whether a device is still mounted | 23:08 |
knobo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9656745/ | 23:08 |
daftykins | knobo: ok, looks like the driver is working fine. somehow missing libraries then, i don't know anything about openGL packages though | 23:09 |
upyeclipse | daftykins, ty. it worked. but when you unmount graphically the symbol disappears from the bar on the left. now it was unmounted but the symbol was still there | 23:10 |
daftykins | upyeclipse: i fail to see the relevance :) | 23:10 |
knobo | daftykins: ok, thank you for the help. | 23:10 |
leeyaa | hello | 23:11 |
xchatter | OMG, someone can help me? I messed up my encrypted LVM Ubuntu. I just restarted my Laptop and I am getting the grub rescue> prompt. | 23:11 |

leeyaa | https://bpaste.net/show/f17a6ad3a094 | 23:12 |
leeyaa | it happens on ubuntu 14.04 lts fresh installations | 23:12 |
leeyaa | it eventually boots and seems to be running fine | 23:12 |
xchatter | I am freaked out. I copied back some data from a hard disk to make a backup on some other hard disk. | 23:12 |
leeyaa | but why is it taking so long ? | 23:12 |
daftykins | leeyaa: first google result - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2218100 | 23:13 |
leeyaa | daftykins, i saw these, they dont offer any real solution | 23:14 |
leeyaa | i checked first several pages | 23:14 |
leeyaa | nor they give any real reason | 23:14 |
leeyaa | i have this on all my 14.04 servers. vms and physical machines | 23:15 |
daftykins | all of them? | 23:18 |
daftykins | so ones without X? i wouldn't care then | 23:18 |

ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 23:23 |
leeyaa | daftykins, yes no X | 23:23 |

NinjaCowboy | I booted up my computer today, and now all of the Unity menus look like this. http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_from_2015-01-01_17_37_27-ts3yDyUh.png I tried rebooting, but it still persists. How do I fix it? | 23:41 |
Codmadnesspro | How would I get my banned.txt file from /home/playmcpe/server to goto /var/www/bans.domain.com/ every 10 minutes maybe? | 23:47 |
bubbasaures | NinjaCowboy, I don't use unity so missing the problem, however you can reset unity and compiz | 23:47 |
NinjaCowboy | How? | 23:48 |
bubbasaures | NinjaCowboy, Info on the web pr release, had you included the releases I would have a link, now it's up to you. ;) | 23:48 |
NinjaCowboy | I did try uninstalling and reinstalling the light-themes package, but it didn't fix it. | 23:48 |
bubbasaures | per* | 23:48 |
SchrodingersScat | Codmadnesspro: ln -s /home/playmcpe/server/banned.txt /var/www/bans.domain.com/banned.txt #? | 23:48 |
Codmadnesspro | <SchrodingersScat I need it to update every 10 mins | 23:49 |
NinjaCowboy | Sorry, forgot to mention it. I'm using 12.04 x86. | 23:50 |
SchrodingersScat | Codmadnesspro: that keeps it updated, guess you could cron a cp | 23:50 |
Codmadnesspro | What's the interval on that schrodinger? | 23:51 |
SchrodingersScat | Codmadnesspro: ln should treat it like the same file, cron you can set by the minute | 23:52 |
