[00:04] np [00:09] How can I change a dns cache if that's the right term for it [00:10] Because thanks to my dad reddit redirects on my home network [00:10] It works fine if I'm on a vpn [00:10] Then you should ask your dad ;) [00:10] So I have to assume he's messed with the DNS settings? [00:11] or he wants you not to surf on reddit :) [00:11] Well probably [00:12] Then hypothetically speaking, how could someone set up such a redirect [00:12] ? [00:12] peter__: He stopped you from visiting reddit - we dont know how/what he did :) [00:12] Hmm [00:12] Not really, since it works when I'm on a vpn, or not on my network [00:13] Is there a way to set the ip address that reddit.com is associated with locally? [00:14] Hello, I just installed Ubuntu. I'm having issues from transitioning from Windows 7. I installed it all successfully, however I cannot find my recovery partition. Is there a way I can re-add it or will it be hidden until I install Windows (which I don't want to do) [00:15] Help would be much appreciated :) [00:15] alzeller1: how did you install ubuntu? i'm afraid the recovery partition might have been erased. [00:15] ( you can still get it back though ) [00:15] Used the "Other" when selecting which partition, don't worry... I selected to mount it to /recovery [00:16] That or it mislead me [00:16] alzeller1: not sure what you mean by mount it to /recovery [00:16] hardtail: heyyy [00:17] It said that I can select to place it anywhere; however if it doesn't have that option, I don't know what to do because I have all of my Java code and stuff on there as well as some media. [00:17] Is there any way that I can get it on Ubuntu? I don't have access to Windows, because it's running alone. [00:17] hello [00:18] if i use this configuration http://paste.ubuntu.com/9685056/ it will rotate log monthly OR if it reaches 500MB right ? [00:19] anyone know if there is a way to move lvm logical volumes from one drive to another without changing the identifier so that it maintains its bootability without changing config files? [00:19] leeyaa: Indeed. But I'd set a much smaller size, though. [00:20] bekks: so if i run this hourly it must rotate log once a month or if it reaches size must rotate it hourly [00:20] it is just example config [00:20] ive set it up as hourly cron job [00:21] each hour i want to check for size and once a month do rotation anyway [00:22] bekks: could you please confirm that configuration will do what i intend :D [00:22] as i am bit confused with newer and older logrotate versions [00:22] If I cannot get help here, I'll try out the forums, as that might be the best bet for my situation at this point. [00:23] leeyaa: IT will rotate the log monthly or if it reaches 500M. [00:23] thats great, i was worried ill have to setup a second logrotate [00:23] sweet [00:23] leeyaa: dont forget to compress rotated logs. [00:24] bekks: yeah i will but without delay [00:24] not sure if this might break some service [00:25] hikenboot: I would expect a standard pvmove to do that, it certainly won't change the filesystem UUID as that's one layer above LVM. [00:27] do you think without delay logrotate might be wrong ? [00:27] leeyaa: You can even delay compression, that not tragically. But having 10 uncompressed log ratations lying around there, which 500M each, isnt a good idea :) [00:28] bekks: i am compressing logs, but without delay. not sure if that is ok [00:28] so the first log it rotates gets compressed [00:29] leeyaa: Why are you concerned about it? :) It will not break things. The first log isnt compressed for easy access, only. [00:29] It is just wasting space :) [00:29] bekks: because i dont know how logrotate works exactly [00:29] for example if it moves the log or copies it or something like that [00:29] there is a possibility it might bake some custom service [00:31] Jordan_U, are you sure? I did a pvmove and it was required that I change the UUID in a config file. I want to avoid this problem to be able to automate this process === aaron_ is now known as ahoneybun [00:34] bekks: hm, will it be possible to make the monthly rotation to be at midnight ? [00:34] Hi [00:35] or wait thats what will happen i guess [00:35] since when it gets midnight it will run hourly + use the monthly variable === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay [00:36] am i right? :P === 6A4AAZM85 is now known as opt1ckz [00:38] hikenboot: What config file? [00:39] at what time does ubuntu run hourly jobs from /etc/cron.d/hourly ? [00:40] i mean from /etc/cron.hourly lol [00:40] 17th minute, hm [00:41] well thats still midnight for monthly rotation 00:17 === corey84-- is now known as Corey84 [00:42] leeyaa: check timings in the /etc/crontab file, it specifies to computer what 'daily' means there [00:43] svetlana: yeah i found it [00:43] sorry, 'hourly' (actually it does for all) [00:43] so monthly rotation will run at 00:17 which is perfect for this case [00:44] :) [00:44] will changing server date allow me to test monthly rotation ? [00:53] im having trouble adding a new network interface to a ubuntu vm [00:53] ive created a new eth1.cfg in /network.d [00:54] and added the static info there and ifup eth1 didnt work neither did networking restart nor did reboot. what am i missing? [00:56] hello [00:56] hello [00:57] hows the day treating you [01:02] Display Resolution question. I am using a dual monitor setup the first is connected via DVI its an Acer 22" Monitor when I go into display settings It gives me Resolution options 1280x720 ...1440x900....1680x1050 and then max of 1920x1080... The 2nd monitor is a 46 in Westinghouse Television Connected by HDMI... It skips from Resolution 1280x720 to max of 1920x1080 I need a resolution somewhere inbetween those on the TV How [01:16] Any one have recommendations for a ticketing system compatible with kubuntu server === kitchen is now known as Guest76453 [01:16] ##LinuxHelpGuy [01:24] Hey all === corey84-- is now known as Corey84 [01:38] hey guys, i have a bash script that starts and stops a few daemons. i'm attempting to run this script (script.sh) via the crontab, and i see it's being run via /var/log/syslog, but it's not actually stopping / starting the daemons. any ideas? [01:38] i've tried * * * * * bash /var/scripts/script.sh [01:38] #/usr/bin/sh /var/scripts/script.sh [01:38] also [01:39] just /var/scripts/script.sh [01:39] in crontab [01:39] in /var/log/syslog i see "Jan 6 19:39:01 db3 CRON[1116]: (root) CMD (/var/scripts/script.sh)" [01:40] but the daemons it's supposed to start and stop just keep going without stopping [01:41] gx: 1) /usr/bin/sh is not a valid location. 2) What happens when you run the script manually? [01:42] when i run it manually, it runs just fine [01:42] ./script.sh works, [01:42] also 'bash script.sh' [01:42] it stops and then starts the daemons [01:42] gx: Are there any sudo calls in the script? [01:42] no [01:42] it's meant to be run as root, though [01:43] and i've all but confirmed it's doing as such [01:43] well, technically yes they're sudo calls [01:43] within the script it's: [01:43] #!/bin/bash [01:43] clear [01:43] stop daemon1 [01:43] sleep 10 [01:43] start daemon1 [01:43] gx you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [01:44] What is an ELF header? [01:45] ^ that's about it Pici [01:45] Hello everyone. I've created SW raid, consisting of /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1, it's called /dev/md0. I think GRUB has been installed on /dev/md0 but for some reason, that PC won't boot up [01:45] It just says there's no bootable media available. USB boots ok. Now, should I install Grub somewhere else, since I assume md0 is not available from the beginning to the BIOS? [01:45] Thank you [01:45] Numline1: Grub's boot sector needs to be installed to an area that your BIOS can read from, so installing to /dev/md0 can't work. [01:46] Jordan_U, hmm, strange, because I just got fatal error when it was installing grub-install 'dev/sda /dev/sdb' [01:46] It somehow worked ok during the second install [01:46] Now I'm not sure whether I should create special EFI partition or just install it on sda or sdb or both :( [01:46] gx: syslog says that it is running the command, perhaps try adding this to the end of the crontab line to see if it throwing any errors that you aren't seeing: >> /tmp/script.log 2>&1 [01:47] I'm currently running some recovery DVD/USB which should repair booting [01:47] Pici i figured it out- i needed PATH=$PATH:/sbin/ in my .sh script [01:47] doh! [01:47] thanks thogh [01:47] Numline1: Please pastebin the contents of /proc/mounts. [01:47] gx: np [01:47] crazyhead42: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man5/elf.5.html [01:48] Jordan_U, would you like the content of the mounted md0 or the live DVD? [01:48] ummm... in noob please? [01:48] I've created mount point in /mnt/md0 just to verify it works [01:49] Jordan_U, oh, md0 is empty since it's not running. I'll give you the live DVD proc mounts in a sec :) [01:50] Jordan_U, here you go http://pastebin.com/XUcUQya4 [01:50] thanks in advance [01:52] The current state is: I have GRUB installer ready here, not sure if I should install it both on sda and sdb or just one of them [01:53] Assuming the logic of RAID1 I'd say both, I'm just not sure what'll happen [01:55] Numline1: You seem to have /dev/md0 mounted twice, that seems like a bad idea. [01:55] yep, just by an accident, other than that, it's not causing any troubles [01:56] it's just live DVD [01:56] Numline1: sudo umount /mnt/md0 [01:56] Numline1: Then please pastebin the new /proc/mounts. [01:58] Jordan_U, here you go http://pastebin.com/LMXRCee3 [02:00] Numline1: What is /dev/md129 ? [02:00] Numline1: Is this a UEFI based or BIOS based machine? [02:01] Jordan_U, /dev/md129 is raid 1 swap [02:01] and it's both UEFI and legacy BIOS [02:01] free says I have no swap. I just installed a new harddrive, did a fresh install, default encryption. What's wrong? [02:02] Jordan_U, lol, I've installed GRUB on both sda and sdb, it works now [02:02] yay [02:03] Numline1: Why does your RAID1 swap contain a vfat filesystem, which is currently mounted to /mnt/boot-sav/md129? [02:05] Jordan_U, oh, my bad, md128 is swap, md129 was efi boot partition I've created [02:05] and I no longer need [02:05] I'll remove it/them [02:06] Numline1: You can't have an EFI System Partition on top of mdraid anyway, as again it's something that your boot firmware needs to access. If you're trying to intall for UEFI, then you need an ESP on one drive, as a plain fat32 partition. [02:07] Jordan_U, indeed, I'll scrub it, I've tried to use RAID on it which was dumb of me [02:07] anyway, using GRUB on both /dev/sda and /dev/sdb should work, shouldn't it? [02:07] I mean it's booting but in case one of those drives goes bye-bye [02:08] Numline1: For a BIOS based system, yes that will work.

Let me try to be more specific, we have an IP range from 0.0.0.2 to 0.0.0.6, the port is closed on all IP's except for 0.0.0.3. We need the port open on 0.0.0.6 [03:53] Hi, How can I use the gpard GUI in ubuntu 14.10? [03:53] farva: so allow it for a range of addresses --src-range 0.0.0.2-0.0.0.6 [03:53] and what command do I use to make that happen? [03:54] farva: did you read the page I just sent you? [03:55] yes I did, I was not sure if that was what I need to enter, I will do that now =] [03:56] hi [03:56] I always 3x check when entering commands...I have messed a few things up not knowing what I am doing lol [03:56] hi [03:57] typing a 1, instead of an l - that got me when I first started [04:02] testing it now [04:03] lol>?

[05:16] yes [05:16] rich: ubuntu have the help system, which you can type help in the dash, and start from there :3 [05:18] rich: there're also manpages, info page, which you can type in terminal. Example "man man" and "info man". And don't forget the --help argument when you run a command, example "man --help" [05:18] rich: IMO, this is enough to start :3 [05:18] !manual [05:18] The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [05:19] else there is a monthly fullcirclemagazine [05:19] i know... but i want a method that teaches me in a linear way... from novice to advanced... i am using 14.04 right now..and love it.. and get by .. but i dont really understand alot ... cat.. chmod...other basic stuff even... [05:21] rich: the best way is to experience and tryout yourself [05:22] rich: in linux you can never be advanced, as we learn here every day [05:23] rich: try to learn to using --help, man, and info will lead you to advanced >:) [05:23] the *Nix learning curve is never ending. [05:24] i know it'll take a long time... but i wanna get to the point where i can do some bash scripting... install a package from source... [05:24] rich: so experiment and read much, idle in scripting channels and here [05:24] rich: did you read man bash and man apt-get? [05:25] Join the bash channel, in the channel topic, there are some great links for beginners and advanced users, like Mike's wiki etc. [05:25] thank you [05:25] rich: and if you have questions, here's the place to be [05:29] Allot of folks overlook perl and shell scripts, but without them being the glue, Debian based distros would be in terrible shape package wise .. see /var/lib/dpkg/info :-) [05:33] hello, im wondering if anyone knows what i need to do to have my second hard disk mount as if it were a usb drive when i boot my pc [05:35] !fstab | ghostx562 [05:35] ghostx562: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system.

It is much easier to manage and more economic in bandwidth than static mounts via fstab. For more info - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs [05:36] Or this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions [05:38] lotuspsychje: does it matter if my drive is NTFS?

[05:40] 12.04 [05:40] i used to have it setup that way, had my os drive die and i had to reinstall, now i can't remember how to get it going. im reading that link right now to see if my answer is there [05:41] put it into fstab. you can tell it where to mount [05:42] ghostx562, The basic steps are, you create an mount point, partition the second drive, them in fstab, add the entries to mount what you want and where. [05:43] install restricted extras, then your ntfs would be recognised and appears in your unity panel, only one click and you are mounted. [05:43] OerHeks: ok im gonna try that/ [05:43] that.* [05:44] seem to already have them installed [05:45] i think it might have been an app i had installed that did the work. i cant remember off the top of my head [05:47] OerHeks: i didnt know ntfs was inside ubuntu-restricted-extras, tnx for the hint [05:53] join #freebsd [05:54] hmm no luck [05:55] ghostx562: you might need a reboot mate [05:55] it gives me an error when trying to mount drive [05:55] ghostx562: what kind of error? [05:56] does this channel support 12.04.x? or just the latest 12.04.5? [05:56] retroispresto: all ubuntu versions from topic [05:56] first is said UUID is bad, then it said something about the directory not being found in the /media [05:57] ghostx562: try the solution from OerHeks and install ubuntu-restricted-extras [05:57] lotuspsychje: restricted extras were installed [05:57] already [05:57] oh [05:57] kk [05:57] !uuid | ghostx562 [05:57] ghostx562: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [05:58] ghostx562: maybe pastebin your fstab, so we can take a look? [05:58] may want check to see if blkid is seeing the drive [05:58] ok 1 sec lotus [05:58] blkid is seeing driv [05:58] drive [05:58] let me pastebin [06:00] Okay, I installed a fresh version of ubuntu (14.04) on my main computer. I am using an ethernet cord to connect to the internet, and it worked fine on windows. After installing ubuntu, I can no longer connect to the internet. Pinging google gives me unknown host. Can anyone help? I am a tech savvy guy but I can't figure this out [06:01] that's odd, I dont have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed, and both my NTFS drives are automounted [06:01] bandors: sounds like possibly eth0 or wlan0 is not configured or DNS issue [06:01] ki7mt: same here, strange tha he can automount [06:01] bandors: open Terminal, and type ifconfig [06:01] I changed DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.44.4 [06:01] okay [06:01] I will [06:01] paste the output into here [06:02] ipconfig = command not found [06:02] oh derp [06:02] ifconfig [06:02] sec [06:02] let me type this out [06:02] one line at a time [06:02] !pase [06:03] !paste [06:03] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[06:04] lotuspsychje: yes it is the 22aa device already loaded from the beginning but it doesn't automount [06:04] anything i am missing? [06:05] Here [06:05] http://i.imgur.com/PPkMvm4.jpg [06:05] ghostx562: if you compared the right uuid from ntfs blikd, should work [06:05] Thanks for the help [06:05] lotuspsychje: it won't automount tho, anything i am missing that you can tell? [06:06] ghostx562: are you logged in as the main admin of your system? (not as other user?) [06:06] yes, one and only user. no other users [06:06] hmmz [06:07] Yes [06:07] oh wait [06:07] asking him a question [06:07] lol its driving me crazy, i can't figure it out [06:07] ghostx562: maybe you could try 14.04 install [06:08] Did someone read the imgur photo I posted? [06:08] lotus, i can but my system runs very slowly on anything over 12.04. im going to try maybe lubuntu 14.04? [06:08] bandors, let me take a peek at it [06:08] http://i.imgur.com/PPkMvm4.jpg if you do not already have it [06:09] Trying to solve this internet problem [06:09] ghostx562: also strange you can run 12.04 fine, and trusty not [06:09] ghostx562, Heres simple how too I had bm'd for 12.04, may be work a run through, but seems like you've done all of it already: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/04/auto-mount-windows-ntfs-partitions-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/ [06:09] lotus, anything that is graphics demanding runs my pc slowly [06:09] bandors: did you check sudo lshw -C network for seeing drivers? [06:10] bandors, post a screen cap of your internet settings. also make sure that you have a driver for the ethernet card [06:10] Okay, first I will post a photo of internet settings [06:11] ok [06:11] lotuspsychje: I have not checked I will take a photo now [06:11] ghostx562: like ki7mt said, this hd should automount automaticly normally [06:11] ki7mt, i will check it out [06:12] ghostx562: you could ofcourse testout lubuntu/xubuntu 14.04 livecd, to check if it mounts there [06:13] ghostx562: lotuspsychje http://i.imgur.com/MC8vpKQ.png Here you go [06:14] bandors: some realtek chipset might need a driver or firmware update to work properly [06:15] bandors: go check realtek website for latest linux drivers maybe [06:15] lotuspsychje: Okay, I will look for those. [06:15] bandors: also check your syslog and dmesg for errors about network [06:15] How would I check that lotuspsychje [06:16] bandors: you can use the logviewer icon, or manualy view /var/log/syslog and dmesg in terminal [06:16] !dmesg | bandors [06:16] bandors: dmesg is a console command which outputs the kernel ring buffer - an important log for diagnosing problems in Linux. Often when something errors with hardware it will result in additional lines reported which can be seen by running dmesg in a console. [06:17] ghostx562: you too mate, if you could paste us the uuid error you getting? [06:17] ghostx562, Only think I see on your pastebin fstab is you don't have a folder under /media .. I'd make /media/$USR/Win64 or something [06:17] Only thing .. [06:20] okay lotuspsychje I have the log here for you, let me upload it [06:21] or just like copy and paste into pastebin [06:21] crap my laptop cannot open the file that it saved to one sec [06:23] lotuspsychje: will do [06:23] ki7mt, ill try and making the folder, will reboot to see results be back in a bit [06:24] be back rebooting [06:25] lotuspsychje: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2tpdghw7g5j8ocw/syslog.zip?dl=0 I put the notepad file ubuntu gave out into a rar and uploaded it [06:27] question: when at the desktop on some versions and you type, a box pops up with text and apparently no function? what is it? [06:27] lotuspsychje: Is that file enough to figure out what's up? [06:27] bandors: im reading holdon [06:28] found it, seems to mount fine, it is now mounted under the /media folder [06:28] do you help here with tune2fs? I just formatted a new hdd ext4, reserved blockes is set by default at 5%. I want to reduce that to1% with this option -m reserved-blocks-percentage. tunetfs -m 1 does nothing, can you help me with the syntax? [06:31] bandors: r8169 0000:05:00.0 eth0: link down [06:31] What does that mean? [06:31] bandors: /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring... [06:32] bandors: a lot of eth0 issues in your syslog [06:33] How would I fix this?

I was not able to install with internet enabled [06:37] bandors: do you have wifi stick somewhere you could insert in pc to install with updates? [06:37] bandors: its important to have best ethernet drivers ubuntu chooses [06:37] I don't have a wifi stick or anything. [06:38] seems to be a random driver, so its not compatible. another thing could be to find a driver online and have it installed? [06:38] Let me go look for a wifi stick actually [06:38] bandors: ok, then make sure your system is up to date, and try realteks website [06:38] I might have one [06:38] from the r pi I was using [06:38] Give me 20 mins and I will be back [06:39] probably less [06:39] bandors: fresh install 14.04.1 with your wifistick [06:39] might do magic [06:39] i agree^^ [06:39] lotuspsychje: seemed to mount now, but it loads it in the /media folder [06:39] ghostx562: yes, for ntfs that usual to mount in /media [06:40] lotuspsychje: awesome, i wanted it to mount as if it were a usb, but as long as i got it working im not too worried about location. i just don't understand why it wouldnt work at first. i changed no settings at all but now [06:41] disk utility is reading it and showing as a mounted drive. before it wouldn't mount and kept saying something about the UUID. it works now fully functional [06:41] ghostx562: your 12.04 was fresh install or upgrade from older version? [06:41] lol this was driving me insane. [06:41] lotuspsychje: fresh 12.04.5 [06:41] kk [06:41] i remember having troubles mounting on older versions aswell [06:41] weird thing is i did no editing to fstab or anything [06:42] i might try lubuntu 14.04 or 14.10 if i keep getting issues.

So, I have booted to USB, how do I fix the setting in the laptop? [08:04] Ubuntu no longer seems to clean up /tmp/ on reboot, the files in there are gone, but the directory structure stays. Anybody an idea what is going on? [08:05] b0nn: assuming you did the changes as normal user, i suggest moving your home temporaryly say to "oldhome" or similar and then start with "factory"-default [08:05] if not, then you need to figure out what settings you did you change, or somehow ignore the resume boot [08:05] grumbel: really, are you sure -- does the timestmaps looks such ? [08:06] oh, the settings are in ~/.something? [08:06] grumbel: since my setup does seem to clean up the tmp [08:06] b0nn: yes, if you made the changes as normal user [08:06] I'll mv that directory first [08:07] supauli: reasonably sure, I have directories floating in there from some weeks ago [08:07] supauli: it happened quite recently, only noticed it a week or two ago [08:08] grumbel: did you make those directories? There are system generated directories for sure -- they get generated when you log in [08:08] supauli: those are my own manually created directories [08:08] grumbel: another scenario would be that you are not actually rebooting, but rather hibranting/suspending the machine [08:09] i suspect it's not in home dir, since it suspends even if he does not log in [08:09] supauli: nope, the weird thing is that just the files are gone, just the directories stay [08:10] Good morning [08:10] grumbel: http://askubuntu.com/questions/20783/how-is-the-tmp-directory-cleaned-up [08:12] So I just got a segfault in libICE.so... yesterday, this was in compiz.. suggestions? http://pastie.org/9817610 [08:14] (all latest updates, on HP Elitebook FOlio 1040 g1) [08:15] supauli: thank, found it. had a "chattr -i" file in there, that made the file deletion step fail and the script never got to the directory deletion step in /etc/init/mounted-tmp.conf [08:15] grumbel: nice detective work! Good you got it resolved!

[08:33] so, I logged in and tried to update the setting (by moving /home/user-broken to /home/user, then su - user. The command wouldn't save because X11 wasn't started [08:34] b0nn: logged in via term or another account X11 ?

Suggestions? [08:38] In my kern.log; http://pastie.org/9817610 [08:39] my OS does not allow to log in as 'root', i must log as user and work with 'sudo' or became root with 'sudo su -'. How to make root able to login directly? [08:40] !root | premoboss [08:40] premoboss: 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 [08:41] ubottu, after i became root with "sudo su -" can i set root password with 'passwd' to make root account usable directly? [08:41] premoboss: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [08:41] ahahah [08:41] premoboss: you can set root password useing `sudo password root`, then login as root. [08:41] wiky, ok thanks. [08:42] premoboss: there is no need to set a root password. What do you want to achieve? [08:42] wiky: sudo password root or sudo passwd root? [08:42] somsip, im a debian user since ages, many administrative task i am used to run directly form root account. [08:42] passwd, I'm sorry [08:42] premoboss: sudo -i [08:43] ok guys i solfed the issue. thanks all. [08:46] funny when I use debian or fedora...etc I set it to have a standard with root access. [08:58] i am building a home sever. it will host media files and i will use it as learning web development and sever managment [08:58] [14:58] i want it to be as cheap as possible. help me select the hardware. it should be as cheap as possiuble [08:59] raspberry pi or similar? [08:59] "as cheap as possible" but won't be very powerful [09:00] will raspberry pi fullfill the need? [09:00] at most 3 user will connect to it [09:00] manush11: this is not the place for hardare recommendations. It's the ubuntu support channel [09:01] The Raspberry will have a hard time running Ubuntu... [09:02] manush11: join ##linux ;) that said, I wouldn't recommend a Pi as home server, because it sucks. Pi is a dev board. Use a Dell T20 or HP Microserver N54L / Gen8 [09:02] manush11: I just use a 10 year old Dell (picked up free as obsolete) with a usb drive attached and Ubuntu server installed, works as a media server streaming to dnla devices, minecraft server and running irssi [09:04] DJones: I wouldn't use a 10y old Dell either because it's so inefficient that the electricity bill would be higher in 1-2y than buying a new server :D [09:04] ciao [09:04] ! list [09:04] cobra: No warez here!

[09:32] whoami [09:39] Arix, you are Arix [09:39] But who am I? [09:39] I am root! [09:40] Zequan: iOS doesn't let apps access other apps' data. === Guest97553 is now known as root === root is now known as Guest85402 [09:41] So it's broken by design, so to speak. Use the Windows iTunes in WINE to transfer music or try out Rhythmbox/Amarok/Clementine which are most likely to work with iPhones. You may have to install additional libraries, RTM [09:42] or ditch the iPhone :p [09:43] well, Android is not better to be honest. Depends on the device. === tcpman is now known as Guest34891 [09:47] I want a Google Nexus. Is that a good phone? [09:47] Zequan: not on topic here [09:47] Yes it is because I need to sync my music [09:48] In Ubuntu [09:48] from experience, syncing music from ubuntu to a nexus device is easy [09:48] Will the Google Nexus work in Ubuntu? [09:48] whether or not a phone is good is really not on topic here, this channel is only for ubuntu support, not anything you could possibly do in ubuntu [09:49] android devices are much easier to use in ubuntu [09:52] Zequan: I transfer music/video/ebooks to my Nexus 7 tablet and Lg G3 phone from Ubuntu without issues, but I use an android app (Airdroid) that just connects via wifi [09:54] Hi, ok so xchat 2.8.8 on ubuntu cant scroll ?

[09:56] wait [09:56] the scroller is now suddenly appearring [09:56] soee: alias test='cat /path/to/file', then edit that file [09:56] erm [09:56] soee: hmm... looks like you need a function or script instead, but it should be asked in #bash [09:57] cool phre4k seems all you have to do is say something then stuff starts to work. [09:57] Can I take you home ? [09:57] Stanley00, phre4k: what i need is to return some something like: git commit -m "" and to be able to instert message in "" and apply it [09:58] soee: and that message do you want to include in your alias call or that message should be there automatically? [09:59] phre4k: the message i want to typoe manually [09:59] soee: gitm(){git commit -m "$*" } <= define function like this should works [09:59] soee: then you need a bash function: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19359049/user-input-to-bash-alias [09:59] ok thank you [10:07] Use the second suggestion with &&, if your pre-commit/post-commit hooks fails === MasterPieceF is now known as MasterPiece [10:15] ^ [10:16] . [10:16] can any one tell me how to install .exe file in ubuntu if internet is not available? [10:17] !exe | sujata [10:17] sujata: ubuntu cannot run exe, it's for windows. [10:17] sujata: .exe files are Windows files, you may be able to get it to work using wine, but I wouldn't expect it to work reliably [10:17] !wine | sujata [10:17] sujata: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [10:18] then what file we should have for ubuntu ? [10:18] sujata: What are you trying to install [10:19] anyone ever attempted and succeeded at installing apache openmeeting? [10:20] sujata: use your package manager [10:20] sujata: Generally, ubuntu users install software from the official repositories using the package manager [10:20] typingmaster.exe file [10:20] hey guys I have an entry in crontab that makes a dump of my database for backup purposes [10:20] but it doesn't seem to be working correctly [10:21] define working correctly [10:21] 10 13 * * * dani pg_dump kiji_prod > /home/dani/backups/daily/kiji_prod.bak [10:21] that's the entry [10:21] uses the user dani to run `pg_dump kiji_prod > /home/dani/backups/daily/kiji_prod.bak` [10:21] it just outputs a blank file [10:21] :S [10:21] I tried looking at the logs but I don't see anything that stands [10:21] out [10:22] thought about rsync? [10:22] no i haven't [10:22] but crontab should be just fine if it only worked :P [10:22] sujata: use Klavaro, it's in the package manager. [10:23] does the cron log show it doing its thing on time? [10:23] i am trying to install typingmaster.exe file in ubuntu whether it will install or not [10:23] .exe means wine territory [10:23] ok [10:23] Quoexl: does it live in /var/log/syslog? [10:24] sujata: use Klavaro. It's available in the package manager, e.g. the Software Center. Don't try to install every single Windows program on WINE, that approach is just silly [10:24] sujata: http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm [10:25] Quoexl: if so, I dont see it executing the specified command [10:25] ok, i was trying to [10:25] now i got it [10:25] Quoexl: oh wait, I see it! [10:25] Quoexl: Jan 6 13:10:01 basho CRON[11045]: (dani) CMD (dani pg_dump kiji_prod > /home/dani/backups/daily/kiji_prod.bak) [10:26] there it is [10:26] maybe I need to remove the username before the command [10:26] ^ [10:26] use dani's crontab, not roots [10:28] buddy with the cron job speak up [10:29] DaniG2k: grep CRON /var/log/syslog [10:32] DaniG2k: you still about? === guinsly is now known as guinslym [10:39] Quoexl: sorry was afk, back now [10:40] can everywho help me, how i can disable the lockscreen,i use xubuntu [10:41] Is light locker the right setting?? [10:43] hi [10:45] * impeldown dinner [10:47] anyone alive? [10:49] why ubuntu not use SeLinux [10:49] SELinux [10:49] ? [10:50] is there any Gtk programmer i have a small Gtk project on Github anybody wanna join ? [10:51] reaperB0B: we are all alive, but if 1649 users (currently online in this channel) would write "hi" if somebody joins, it'd be a little noisy, wouldn't it? :) [10:51] phre4k: indeedy doo :) [10:52] ok I have an issue where I have a folder I want to zip up on a remote server (that I have SSH'd into). [10:52] reaperB0B: is there any Gtk programmer i have a small Gtk project on Github anybody wanna join ? [10:52] reaperB0B: then... describe the problem? [10:52] Rohan_14: don't annoy people. Just post a link to your project and a short description, if people want to join they'll do that. [10:52] how do I zip up an entire folder, and download it to my local machine? [10:53] Rohan_14: Maybe better luck in #ubuntu-programming [10:53] reaperB0B: I'd use tar instead of zip [10:53] reaperB0B: then tar caf filename.tar.gz /path/to/folder [10:54] phre4k: i am new to github i dont have any followers ( i have 0 followers ) so i feel ashamed of posting my Profile Link Here that is why i'm sending link to only those person who are really interested [10:54] then you can download it with say, scp or rsync or ftp or whatever's installed. I'd probably not tar anything but just use rsync -az, but that depends on what the files are and what you want to do with them. [10:54] witch one is better :apparmor and SELinux? [10:54] reaperB0B: do you want to do backups or anything else? [10:55] anti-unix: depends on the use case. [10:55] phre4k: i have a server i am abandoning...that i want to pull all the relevant files off of [10:55] it doesn't HAVE to be compressed, but it is 2GB+ - so I figured it may be easier to zip it and download it [10:56] anti-unix: google "apparmor vs selinux" and for example find this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/selinux-vs-apparmor-vs-grsecurity.html [10:56] it is a bunch of jpgs, docs, pdfs, etc. [10:56] phre4k, for example? [10:56] given the size, and the vast number of files...how do I do it so that if the download gets interrupted i can resume easily? [10:56] phre4k, thanks [10:57] reaperB0B: then do a tar.gz backup, but exclude that backup directory. First cd in / and then tar everything but pseudo dirs / running programs (e.g. /proc, /dev etc.) [10:57] reaperB0B: and if you use rsync to copy the resulting mega backup to your PC you have a resume feature :) [10:57] chu: Mate there a so few people on ubuntu-programming is there any Gtk or Gnome Group ? [10:57] phre4k: so this command should do it? - tar caf filename.tar.gz /path/to/folder ? [10:58] i like that idea phre4k [10:59] can I tar a folder that I am in, or should I just cd out of the folder? [10:59] reaperB0B: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Full_System_Backup_with_tar [10:59] reaperB0B: cd .. [11:00] phre4k: I don't wnat to do a full system backup per se [11:00] guys, if I put "set -e" in a bashscript, how can i disable it again? [11:00] phre4k: more just for the folder i am concerned with [11:00] I have some commands that are failing on purpose, but then it stops as well [11:01] I want to do something like set -e // make // [11:01] reaperB0B: then just tar that folder with the command I mentioned [11:01] ok [11:01] y caf versus say cvzf or anything like that? [11:01] reaperB0B: so if you want to backup /home/user you cd to /home and then tar caf user.tar.gz user/ [11:02] reaperB0B: cvzf = compress verbose zip(?) file [11:02] s/compress/concatenate or whatever/ [11:02] hello [11:02] reaperB0B: a = auto compress based on the extension [11:03] reaperB0B: read man tar for the options, relevant: https://xkcd.com/1168/ [11:09] phre4k: thnx will do [11:20] 'Morning folks === swordsmanz is now known as hugbot [11:25] does anyone need a discount coupon for a Digital Ocean VPS? === jonas_ is now known as Guest78333 [11:33] join #javascript [11:34] Hi everyone!

I'm guessing you want to see things that are faster than the eye can catch at mormal playback. I've a suggestion: openshot. export the video to images. for instance, export 10 seconds at the normal frame rate = at least 240 images at 24 fps. then scroll through the images.

Sorry, no idea which file it is in off-hand. [12:06] MMukherjee: "tar -xvf filename", or "man tar" has more examples if that does not work. [12:07] ok [12:09] ok i will ping later after i post [12:10] i was copying a tar.gz file using scp and suddenly got a message scp: /data/ops.tar.gz: No space left on device. it took 7 hours to copy data what should i do now. it is not the complete data [12:11] cloudbud: free up space, try again with rsync. it should be able to copy only what's missing. see its manpage: man rsync [12:12] if I install via .deb, will the updates show up in update manager? [12:12] No. [12:12] FrEaKmAn_: no [12:13] FrEaKmAn_: if the package doesn't provide an entry in apt's sources.list, then no. check with dpkg. [12:13] ame: Pastebin both the error and the grub config and address the whole channel, when you do that. I'm about to head out. [12:13] may I ask why not? so an app has to have some built-in update mechanism? [12:13] FrEaKmAn_: eh /etc/apt/sources.list.d [12:13] FrEaKmAn_: which is generally discouraged if you are using a distro. [12:13] freakman_: Because apt doesn't know where to download the update from. It needs the source in sources.list, as someone else here said. [12:14] FrEaKmAn_: because ubuntu fot the service of its repos. if you dont want to use that you dont have the service [12:14] hm... [12:14] FrEaKmAn_: you can still install the vendor provided package and get its updates, but that is in no way supported by Ubuntu. [12:15] how to get updates? by reinstalling newer deb? [12:15] FrEaKmAn_: and you most likely have to get the updates yourself. [12:15] or I could manually setup apt [12:15] FrEaKmAn_: the first.

[13:04] i know that but it's not my script and i don't know how make a backup script :/ [13:04] hardtailWTFmang: its very hard to help you if you are just asking met questions and beeing so vague [13:05] scuse for my english [13:05] UnGeek: check if this week's was zipped correctly, if it was delete last weeks [13:05] or add another layer and delete the one before maybe, up to you [13:06] phre4k: how do I initiate an rsync in an existing SSH session?

I am hit by #925760 and the instructions on this comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/925760/comments/75 do not work for me, but manually removing the module and readding it with the right option works. I´m trying to avoid the ugly rc.local hack shown in comment #83 in the thread above. Any hints? Fresh install of Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 x86. [13:55] Launchpad bug 925760 in Linux "Constant warnings from the kernel: Test WP failed, assume Write Enabled" [Medium,In progress] [13:57] jalt is your installation on an emmc drive? [13:57] no, sda is normal hdd and works fine, there is no other hard drive, sdb is the sd card reader [13:59] i am confident on it being exactly the above bug, and i am ok with the proposed workaraound until an upstream fix is issued (ha!). I just need to figure out how to apply the module option on boot and perhaps learn a bit more about the module loading process on Linux. [13:59] jalt: if you just want to remove the module its rmmod [14:00] well, i want the module enabled so i don´t have to manually do so everytime i need to use an sd card [14:00] i just need to pass an additional option that will effectively fix the issue (annoying warnings filling the log and screen) [14:01] jalt: when you insert an sd card the module should be reloaded automatically [14:02] cecja: but not with the options required [14:02] what supaili said === Alexa is now known as Guest64456 [14:02] jalt: http://askubuntu.com/questions/51226/how-to-add-kernel-module-parameters [14:02] assuming the module does get loaded, but with wrong options [14:03] rightm but i tried solution 2 on your link (modprobe.d) and it didn´t work [14:03] i don´t really think that rebuilding initramfs should be required... [14:04] jalt: is it a realtek sdcard reader? [14:04] yep [14:04] lsusb confirms it [14:04] did you try echo "ums-realtek ss_en=0" [14:04] module name is ums_realtek, option i need is ss_en=0 [14:04] yea, i created the file properly in right location [14:05] and named it accordingly [14:05] permissions look ok too === Aleksa is now known as Guest35335 [14:05] what is the output of modinfo ums-realtek? [14:05] the expected one [14:06] shit... fire alarm lol, gotta go brb. [14:07] hello [14:09] jalt: i would suggest you study why the modprobe.d "does not work" -- it should, and it would be the proper place for the fix [14:09] jalt: like doing rmmod -- modprobe and check if the file affects (as it should) [14:10] jalt: and like cecja suggested: check the spelling etc for the parameter you are trying to modify [14:12] back, ok i will try reloading the module with the config file in place, but without specifying the option on the modprobe command line [14:13] jalt: and see /sys/module//parameters/ to diagnose if the param gets properly set === jackie is now known as Guest53452 === alexa is now known as Aleksa [14:15] it works. and /sys/module shows the right param (0). rebooting now to see what happens. [14:16] ok, problem is back and /sys/module shows the wrong param (1) [14:16] somehow modprobe.d is only used when modprobe is invoked from cmd line and not udev?? [14:17] the module gets loaded on the boot time ? [14:17] yes, by default [14:17] i am revieweing the link you posted earllier [14:17] not sure here, but could it come from initrd image ? [14:18] yes, possible and perhaps the likely reason [14:18] regenerate that to check ? [14:23] adding the option to /etc/modules by itself produced no change. i don´t feel like using custom initramfs... will be a pain to manage on kernel updates [14:23] i probably will use rc.local to remove and readd the module every boot. it´s ugly but should work better than messing with initramfs [14:24] jalt: um i though the initrd is build on every kernel update localy [14:24] (-> you are always using 'custom' initrd) [14:24] jalt: just do echo "ums-realtek ss_en=0 | sudo tee -a /etc/modules [14:24] and its done [14:24] yes, but what does apt-get do when my local config conflicts? [14:25] i thought the default was always (user knows best, do not change) [14:25] jalt: it will ask you what to do when a file differs [14:25] cecja, did that with no effect [14:25] and since you have custom config file on modules.d -> that will not be conflicting === mydogsnameisrudy is now known as udy [14:25] trust me, the modules.d is the proper solution ;) === udy is now known as mydogsnameisrudy [14:26] the file in modules.d is being ignored upon boot [14:26] and if you do not need that module on system boot, it should not be on the initrd [14:26] you just should have the option set, that when the module is loaded, load it with these parameters [14:26] i did not put it there in first place :) [14:27] you did not put it to etc/modules ? [14:27] only after you told me to try it [14:27] the file was empty but for lp [14:28] thats the default afaik [14:28] yep [14:28] i´m assuming etc/modules is ignored the same as modprobe.d because it was already laoded earlier on initramfs [14:29] still thank you all for your help, now i get to move on to the next problem: zeroed mac address on eth0.

[15:38] TingelTangelTom1: use mumble, Teamspeak tends to eat your CPU because it's programmed like shit [15:39] TingelTangelTom1: compare Teamspeak with Skype CPU load. If it's about the same, the issue is bad programming. That said, how much is "high cpu load"? [15:40] phre4k Hi dude, yeah but no one use it in germany, or for my friends... [15:40] 95% to 99% Cpu Load [15:41] i forgett to say, under Xubuntu with an old satelitte notebook [15:41] TingelTangelTom1: das hört sich wirklich ziemlich viel an. Wenn du "gezwungen" bist, Teamspeak zu nutzen, ist das natürlich schlecht. [15:41] TingelTangelTom1: try out Mumble anyway and look if the load is the same.

[16:43] Pinkamena_D: the ssh-keygen command has a bunch of extra options for managing the known_hosts file, and other things in ~/.ssh/, it might be helpful to take a look at it to see if it does what you need it to do.

I can connect through LAN, but connecting to my external ip has so far been fruitless [17:28] sounds like a good reason to assemble a readable and easy to follow procedure you can post on the forum when you've got it figured [17:29] my iptables have the 3 necessary ports open. my firewall is disabled, my router is forwarding to the local ip properly. various tools suggest the ports are open [17:29] Komak57: forwarded the relevant ports? [17:29] Komak57: just disable iptables entierly [17:29] i setup teamspeak for someone once, it wasn't that hard. [17:29] untill you fixed the problem, then you can enable it [17:30] I'm starting to suspect it's a problem with the setup, which means teamspeak issue, not ubuntu, but i cant find the info [17:30] to rule out possible problems [17:30] hello [17:30] what are the drivers for ati graphics cards [17:30] Komak57: do you have another machine on the internal lan you can try connecting to it with to verify teamspeak is working with the internal ip first? [17:31] this machine. It's a windows machine, and connect fine with the LAN settings [17:31] i hope you're not trying to test connect to your external IP from an internal system [17:32] !graphics [17:32] sagredo: depends on the model of card. fglrx is the proprietary driver [17:32] Komak57: so really the challenge is to get the ports forwarded and you already know teamspeak is working correctly? [17:33] Komak57: and you also know that iptables is not an issue [17:33] I don't see why not [17:33] local computers are immediately recognised as admin [17:34] have people know about gambas3? [17:34] Komak57: are you testing connecting from the outside and not being able to? [17:34] if you're attempting to say it doesn't work because you're connecting to the outside IP from inside, that's probably your problem [17:34] daftykins: thx [17:34] imbezol: correct. Connecting fails about 5 seconds after trying every time [17:34] !info gambas3 [17:34] did you know the gambas3 ?

I cannot connect using the GUI but using the command 'sshfs -o Identityfile= @host:/path ./mount It works [17:38] so i think ,maybe i can edition manual for chinese people [17:38] isaac_: it's hard to really understand what you're saying, maybe you should find the ubuntu channel for your language.

[17:49] mexjerry: why don't you rip locally then transfer over the network? [17:49] or rip to a new folder then return the drive before moving the files [17:50] daftykins: yea, thought about that, but thought this would be faster === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay [17:50] mexjerry: and here you are with permissions woes :) [17:50] hello daftykins can you speak chinese [17:50] I'm having some issues with torrenting in Ubuntu [17:50] daftykins: yes, :( [17:50] isaac_: no and i don't know anything about your question so please don't hassle me [17:51] For some reason my download speed stays at 20kb/s and then stops after a minute [17:51] My main client that I use is Ktorrent [17:51] OK sorry [17:52] Can anyone help?

[18:04] abhaypt1: this isn't your problem, this doens't cause it to fail [18:04] are you running the command from within X and if yes with the same user? [18:05] yes ssh -X [18:05] user name is same in both pc and server [18:05] No help for me :/ [18:06] Jre: I believe there is a wait time. Patience :) [18:06] abhaypt1: is there some warning about X forwarding? [18:06] abhaypt1: use ssh -v to get more info [18:06] I believe it isn't working for you [18:06] Jre: I have yet to leave without help [18:06] XView error: Cannot open connection to window server: localhost:11.0 (Server package) [18:06] [1]+ Exit 1 [18:06] Jre: are you forwarding your port through ssh?

VNC [18:06] X11 forwarding in my machine? [18:07] then make sure your forwarding is working foirst [18:07] you probably have the ports backwards in some way [18:07] from the digitalocean, [18:07] !who [18:07] As you can see, this is a large channel.

[18:07] Can anyone help me set up my torrent client? [18:07] Where shall i see. [18:07] Ktorrent is not showing any download speed whatsoever [18:07] when i "ssh -V" it says OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 [18:08] abhaypt1: -v, not -V [18:08] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-14-04 [18:08] yup i it in caps on my terminal [18:08] m0h4wk, Is it downloading? [18:08] i typed in upper case on my terminal [18:09] Jre: did that ssh command work for you and did you test it? [18:09] abhaypt1: type it in lower [18:09] bubbasaures: nope [18:09] bubbasaures: not at all [18:09] Jre: What does sudo netstat -tanp | grep 5901 say? There should be an application name or number in the far right column. [18:09] bubbasaures: I thought that maybe I should open up my ports in Terminal [18:10] bubbasaures: So I went to the Ktorrent settings, looked up the ports, and added a rule for my firewall in Terminal. [18:10] bubbasaures: Still nothing [18:10] m0h4wk, never used the app, but I would think you need a download to show it, or is this the limitations of speed you need to see? [18:11] root@main ~ # sudo netstat -tanp | grep 5901 [18:11] tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 20292/Xtightvnc [18:11] tcp6 0 0 ::1:5901 :::* LISTEN 20431/ssh [18:11] !tab [18:11] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

[18:12] ubuntu 14.04.1 [18:12] m0h4wk, Heh, never used it ever, but thats me, not sure of what the fix is both apps I never use is all. [18:12] abhaypt1: ssh -v -X [18:12] bubbasaures: I'll google deeper then [18:12] Jre: next time don't paste into the channel, use a pastebin. [18:12] I believe you are mixing up your computers [18:12] alright mate [18:13] whys that? [18:13] because you have ssh listening on the same port as tightvnc [18:13] m0h4wk, IP tables are what you should be using if you really want protection. [18:13] that doens't make sense [18:13] you want it to listen on your local box and forward it to the port on the remote host where vnc is listening [18:14] did that, "ssh -v -X " [18:14] you either have the vnc on the wrong box or your forwarding the wrong way round [18:14] How to do that,i just folowed the tutorial [18:14] !who [18:14] As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [18:14] then try understanding it first instead of blindly following it [18:14] USE NICKS PREFACING PLEASE [18:14] abhaypt1: and did it tell you anything about its attempt to use X forwarding? [18:14] :/ im staying all day,no more nerves [18:15] :/ [18:16] imbezol: i did that, "ssh -v -X " . it got connected to server and when i entered a command to open a window on my machine, a huge log came which ended with the same error earlier, it was [18:16] XView warning: Cannot load font 'lucida-12' (Font package) [18:16] debug1: channel 1: FORCE input drain [18:16] XView warning: Cannot load font '-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-sans-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*' (Font package) [18:16] XView error: Cannot open connection to window server: localhost:11.0 (Server package) [18:16] debug1: channel 1: free: x11, nchannels 2 [18:16] abhaypt1 you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [18:16] :/ [18:18] Any help? :/ [18:18] how about answering first which box that netstat came from [18:19] from ubuntu 14041 lts [18:19] Ubuntu bug 14041 in Ubuntu "Hoary Preview some bugs."

[18:20] Jre's pc - ssh+vnc -> target pc [18:20] yes, [18:20] abhaypt1: what's the output of this command: grep X /etc/ssh/sshd_config [18:20] basically [18:21] im using ipad xP [18:21] for ssh ,vnc, [18:21] then you executed the ssh command on the wrong computer, you should issue that on your local pc [18:21] question: what does actually occur when you execute sudo update-grub? [18:21] how do I show only entries from the auth.log from the last 5 minutes? is there an easy solution or do I have to write a script that parses the dates explicitly? [18:21] Kaste,i have a app to connect [18:22] so? [18:22] vnc viewer,it says port not possible to conmect [18:22] yes, because you need to run this ssh command from that local pc [18:22] it forwards that ports traffic to the server port [18:23] how to make the exisiting changes? [18:23] imbezol: it says no such file or directory [18:23] ti run in Jre pc or ssh (vps ) [18:24] abhaypt1: check your typing again.. there should be an /etc/ssh/sshd_config file [18:24] abhaypt1: grep X /etc/ssh/sshd_config [18:24] :/ b [18:25] I don't understand the question [18:25] Where shall i run t he command [18:25] in my pc or ssh [18:25] on your local pc [18:25] Hey can anyone plase help me recover ext4 partition? [18:25] Cant i connect it via windows ? [18:25] if you use putty with port forwarding maybe [18:26] imbezol: i typed exactly this "grep X /etc/ssh/sshd_config" [18:26] but that's a whole new can of worms [18:26] So i ned linux for linux? [18:26] do you even need port forwarding? [18:26] dude ima newbie :/ [18:26] no you can use putty on wndows and ssh on linux and mac [18:27] but how to connect on puttty? [18:27] imbezol: when i type it on server it says permission denied and on my machine its says no such file or directory [18:27] Jre: if you're setting up VNC on a VPS because you installed X, you're kinda doing servers wrong in principle. [18:27] does it support cnc viewer or i need to run thr commans then use aa cnc client? [18:27] abhaypt1: umm... so you're sshing from one system to another? [18:27] Jre: http://activedeveloper.info/port-forwarding-with-putty.html [18:27] abhaypt1: you want to check the sshd_config of the server [18:28] Jre: what is cnc? [18:28] vnc* [18:28] auto correct of ipad [18:28] kaste: come on, it's atrocious typing but it's easy to work out :P [18:28] look first check if you actually need to bypass the firewall [18:28] imbezol: precisely, I am sshing from my pc to the server in my univ to run a simulation software [18:28] Could somebody tell me what the minimum archive I need to mirror is for trusty server net install please? The trusty main restricted universe multiverse is 60 GB, i'd like something much smaller. [18:28] daftykins: sorry, I just worked out some insane regexes, my mind is too fried for that [18:29] kaste: i don't think it's about firewall bypass, it's about sending the VNC plaintext over SSH for security i would think :) [18:29] VNC password that is [18:29] oh come on there gotta be some tls solution for that [18:29] but VNC on a VPS is so laughable i'm not touching that one with a bargepole :) [18:29] It's fun though. [18:29] yeah but i don't know what guide was followed [18:30] imbezol: From Windows machine I used Mobaxterm and another distro Crunchbang it worked smoothly. but from the day i shifted to ubuntu i couldnt run it [18:30] no it's silly. [18:30] abhaypt1: and what are you running on your pc? ubuntu? [18:30] I get the cringes from running X on a server in the first place but this is ubuntu so hey [18:30] @imbezol: ubuntu 14 [18:30] abhaypt1: ok. interesting. try with ssh -Y instead of -X, just to see [18:31] imbezol: same error :( [18:31] abhaypt1: grep X /etc/ssh/ssh_config [18:31] abhaypt1: that's the client config [18:32] Why doesn't this bash work? DO_LOOP="yes" [18:32] php CrazyMonkey.php [18:32] It doesn't loop if shutdown [18:32] you realize all you are doing is set a shell variable there with no semantics right? [18:32] imbezol: it reads ForwardX11: no [18:32] ForwardX11Trusted: yes [18:33] abhaypt1: sudo sed -i -e 's/ForwardX11 no/ForwardX11 yes/' /etc/ssh/ssh_config [18:33] abhaypt1: and try again [18:34] WOuld you know how to loop it then kaste? [18:34] what do you want to achieve [18:34] imbezol: did that and confirmed it by checking with the previous command, both are yes now [18:35] SO say I did !shutdown it would shutdown and then restart itself [18:35] imbezol: Thank you very much. [18:35] Or if it crashed because of netsplit then it'd restart [18:35] abhaypt1: it worked? [18:35] Codmadnesspro: you probably want to write a service file then, but I don't know how to do that for upstart [18:36] :-| its 12:00 midnight here, my univ rules are, that particular simulation server is allowed between 6 am to 12:00 midnight :? [18:37] imbezol: i am presuming I'll run the simulations tomorrow morning, thank you :D [18:37] abhaypt1: alright. good luck [18:46] when I run a $ which curl [18:46] and it gives me a filepath [18:46] what did you expect? [18:46] what is that reference? is it an ENV VAR? [18:46] and how do I make more [18:47] which gives you the location of the corresponding binary [18:49] delinquentme: it searches through your $PATH for that executable and reports its location. [18:50] specifically it tells you which one will run if you just type the command [18:50] if you have multiple matching binaries which is useful to identify which one will be urn [18:50] aye [18:50] *run [18:51] I don't think that's true [18:51] it will always give you a binary in the filesystem even if the shell will use a builtin (unless you use zsh, I think that takes aliasing and builtins into account) [18:52] kaste: that's true.. it doesn't account for builtins, aliases, etc [18:52] unless you use zsh :) [18:53] how much max ram can ubuntu support [18:53] I have an issue similar to: http://askubuntu.com/questions/442928/cannot-mount-sys-fs-cgroup-13-10-vagrant-box How can I restore the mentioned directories from a live cd?

[19:41] bubbasaures, I'm on topic [19:41] Tenkawa, Not here valid [19:41] it is a specific known setup and if it needs any more clarification then its not being worked on [19:42] Ubuntu uses compiz by default [19:42] Paddy_NI, This is direct support not your complaint soapbox. ;) [19:42] Ubuntu, Intel BayTrail CPU is "very" specific [19:42] bubbasaures, I was getting around to a question [19:43] tw100 machine to boot [19:43] so very specific [19:43] SuperLag: if your alt-` and alt-' are bound to application switch you may need to clear those bindings too [19:43] Tenkawa, We cover your issues your having, your question shows none of that, if you want help use the channel correctly. [19:43] SuperLag: experimenting here it doesn't look like kde (you may be using unity.. i don't know) differentiates between left and right alt [19:43] Paddy_NI, Than get to it, we could always use less drama here. [19:44] bubbasaures: thats my point.. its a platform issue (specificly that Intel EFI is screwed up) and if noone has a response to that noone is working on it [19:45] it is a 64 bit cpu thats locked to 32 bit efi [19:45] Does anyone know how I can get better quality icons in the compiz "application switcher" plugin? [19:45] rather "uses" [19:45] 32bit EFI is terrible. [19:45] rww: omg yes [19:45] imbezol: I'm using Unity. [19:45] I agree 1000% [19:46] Standard work solution to encountering 32bit EFI systems: throw system out and purchase new one [19:46] SuperLag: try setting up the compose key as instructed first and see if right alt will work for you. you could pick a different key or clear the default bindings if needed [19:46] rww: the tablet has great potential if it werent for efi [19:46] hola [19:46] hey guys, I am getting a 'hash sum mismatch' when running apt-get update on a new VM. What is going on? [19:47] i tried emptying /var/.../lists.. no luck [19:47] grazfather, Hash on the update? [19:47] a held package? [19:47] imbezol: I'm not seeing how to set the Compose key. I can see the option, but it's stuck at Disabled. [19:48] SuperLag: did you check the option at the top of advanced to configure keyboard options? [19:49] Hello, I joined my ubuntu to an Active Directory domain, however to access the server shares the user's credentials logged in ubuntu are not used, it is to function? [19:49] http://askubuntu.com/questions/41605/trouble-downloading-packages-list-due-to-a-hash-sum-mismatch-error [19:50] xdexter, What does "it is to function?" mean? [19:50] grazfather, Natty is this correct? [19:51] bubbasaures, If I log into my ubuntu with my domain user, to access the server shares should use the login credentials? [19:51] xdexter, I just asked a simple question. [19:51] imbezol: let me post a screenshot https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/913175/trying_to_set_compose.png [19:52] bubbasaures, I expressed myself wrong, I guess so it is easier to understand you [19:52] imbezol: when I highlight "Compose Key" and hit the right Alt, the "Type your command" window comes up from the launchbar [19:52] xdexter, Cool, just with that it becomes really confusing to see what's going on, not an area I'm best at however. [19:53] SuperLag: hmm.. yours look different than mine [19:53] grazfather, Hello, hello are you there? [19:53] bubbasaures, Okay, but you understand what my question? [19:53] imbezol: I'm using Unity on 14.04.1 [19:53] SuperLag: try doing something like alt-space [19:53] xdexter: have you set up pam to use samba as the authentication mechanism? [19:54] SuperLag: can't help you much further than that.. i don't run unity [19:54] hi, is there native jack audio support for firefox except patching it ? [19:54] xdexter, Would not matter if I do, not an area I know, the issue is is it clear enough for the channel to understand is all I was addressing, and trying to underswtand myself. [19:54] SuperLag: but the compose key is def what you need to get sorted out [19:54] understand* [19:54] SuperLag: should be able to do some googling on it [19:55] bubbasaures, I used the PBIS:"http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/80336-join-ubuntu-14-04lts-to-a-windows-domain-using-pbis-open" [19:55] Ok, no problems [19:55] xdexter, When you keep addressing me it looks with a cursory glance your getting help when you're not. ;) [19:56] Ok ;D [19:56] ;) [19:58] Hi bubbasaures sorry [19:59] grazfather, No problem, asked a few questions is all. === LinoSP_ is now known as LinoSP [20:00] grazfather, Any held packages as the hash mismatch and is this natty? [20:00] it's debian. Jessie [20:00] grazfather, Ah you need #debian than [20:00] they are dead >.< [20:01] more or less [20:01] but I figured it's the same problem, just thet their servers are fucked and not ubuntu's :p [20:01] grazfather, Ubuntu only support here, running a eol is not a good idea. [20:01] oel? [20:01] is Jessie EOL? [20:01] end of life [20:01] grazfather, And no swearing here please. [20:02] grazfather, This is ubuntu support, that is all we directl address. [20:02] directly* [20:02] you saqid they were dead I assumed you meant jessie [20:02] fwiw, jessie isn't EOL, it's brand new [20:02] oh no [20:03] the chan [20:03] grazfather, Try ##linux if you are registered with freenode [20:03] sure [20:05] hola [20:08] hola === zeus is now known as Guest53758 [20:12] I have a just ~32 GB SSD on my laptop. I'm going to install: Win8.1, Ubuntu14.10 and x86_4.4-r2-android. How many space should I denominate for each one? [20:13] frenda: probably wont fit [20:13] frenda, That is really not enough space but it is you fun, ubuntu has a min of 6 gigs or so but that will allow not much. [20:13] you're* [20:13] Should loading nvidiafb.ko module automatically start framebuffer? [20:13] I am running on 6 gig and it's very tight [20:14] and if you carve a few gig out for android windows will complain [20:15] frenda, You would really have to minimize installs, not sure if there is a windows kit yet, ubuntu can be net installed smaller === OnkV is now known as Haudegen [20:18] Can someone link me to the right guide for making just a single addition to the present kernel? I just want to enable HPET and nothing else. [20:18] messing with the kernel is daunting. [20:19] isnt that by default? === j3m4dux is now known as jemadux [20:19] Ntemis: evidently not [20:20] why does ubuntu compile kernels wihtout /proc/config.gz -,- [20:20] go find defconfig and add =y to the HPET config flag [20:20] pantato, add "clocksource=hpet" to the bootline, see http://linuxforums.org.uk/index.php?topic=10492.0 [20:21] oh ok thanks good to know [20:22] hi [20:22] i have no-ip host . how it set my PC home for connect from internet ? [20:22] imbezol: got it. Had to use dconf-editor, in the end. [20:23] ' [20:23] oops sorry [20:23] ny scrollback isbt working [20:24] Hi, I just successfully compiled and inserted the r8101 module and blacklisted r8169 (broken Realtek wired ethernet), but the driver loads a zeroed mac address on boot (seems to be by design). I can manually change it with ifconfig hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, but it persists only until the next reboot. Is there a more elegant way to make this permanent other than adding it to an init script (rc.local comes to mind)? [20:24] SuperLag: good stuff [20:24] imbezol: thanks man [20:24] np [20:25] so anyone running a winbook tablet by chance? === saschpe is now known as zz_saschpe [20:25] i have no-ip host . how it set my PC home for connect from internet ? [20:25] jalt: realtek is crap. I have a gigabit card which i had to retire [20:26] simple permission question please. got this file and this user who cannot acces it for some reason : http://hastebin.com/ugesofizih.coffee [20:26] jrthump: all of them nowadays are quetionable [20:26] yes, but it comes soldered to the laptop´s motherboard :) [20:26] er questionable [20:26] Hi, how do I start a tmux session without attaching to it? -d doesn't seem to work for me [20:26] Lyxodius: what error? [20:27] even though I used the realtek driver 8168 and blacklisten the "built in" which detects it as 8169 it only got 100Mbit [20:27] anyway, i have it working it now (haven´t run iperf though) and just need to find the best way for it to remeber it´s actual mac address [20:27] poops3: the nagios user itself has write access to that file. Are you trying to let people with group nagios have write access to it? [20:27] intel is the safest bet imho [20:27] I don't get an error, the commands seems to return 0 [20:27] mine is truly r101 which is only fast ethernet 10/100 [20:27] Aok [20:27] er ok [20:27] But there is no session after that [20:27] let me see if I can recreate [20:27] lol welp now it's not booting up [20:28] guess i'll have to wait until i get home to fix it [20:28] derp [20:28] Lyxodius: what syntax are you using? [20:28] hi, is there a qay to gather info about which packages on my ubuntu system are actually used? [20:28] [not just installet] [20:28] Tenkawa: tmux new-session -d 'cd /home/mc/1.8 && java -jar -server -Xmx8192 -Xms8192 minecraft_server.1.8.1.jar nogui' [20:28] jalt: you might be able to specify a MAC in /etc/network/interfaces , not 100% sure [20:29] Tenkawa: After that when I try to 'tmux attach' it says 'no sessions' [20:29] i've been trying to see about using facial recognition for login but the info on the web is out of date - sudo apt-get install pam-face-authenticationgives an error even though the repository was added - is there anything else available? [20:30] daftykins, i thought about it, but i´m using network-manager (GUI) and i could swear it would ignore/overwrite /etc/interfaces [20:30] (i could be wrong) [20:30] ki7rw: did you run sudo apt-get update after adding whatever repository you added? [20:30] fps, you want a installed list? [20:30] jalt: yeah you'd have to bypass it. [20:30] well, maybe [20:30] Lyxodius: you sure that jdk session works standalone with no controlling tty? [20:30] java can be goofy [20:30] and it may not be in the path [20:31] It should, back in time I used screen instead of tmux for the same matter and it worked [20:31] make sure you fully qualify paths or ./java too [20:31] Pici: yes [20:31] fps, Ah actually used, I assume of what's installed, this an attempt to remove "bloat"? [20:32] apparently the package i tried to install no longer exists [20:32] Lyxodius: Its probably env related [20:32] ki7rw: are you sure that the repository actually provides a package for your release? [20:32] ki7rw, what ppa did you add, and what ubuntu version are you on? [20:32] issue a . .profile as part of your command [20:32] Pici: that's what the ubuntu web sites told me to do [20:32] bubbasaures: rather crud than bloat, but yes, exactly :) [20:32] ki7rw: Do you have a url for the ppa you added? [20:32] Lyxodius: or do like I do and wrap it in a small shel script === martial is now known as Guest87556 [20:33] OerHeks: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:antonio.chiurazzi/ppa && sudo apt-get update - ubuntu 14.04 [20:33] bubbasaures: i guess i could do statistics about file acceess times [20:33] bubbasaures: and see what packages they belong to [20:33] Tenkawa: Okay wait I try something [20:33] http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2011/05/face-authentication-face-recognition.html [20:33] i have no-ip host . how connect two machine dynamic IP on internet ? [20:34] ki7rw: That ppa only provides packages for 10.04, 10.10, and 11.04. Clearly not 14.04 [20:35] Pici: http://askubuntu.com/questions/516710/is-there-any-facial-recognition-software-for-logging-in-on-ubuntu-14-04 [20:35] fps, Waste of time in my opinion, if you want less doing a net install is a better option. [20:35] pretty much the same process [20:35] and same result [20:35] bubbasaures: you mean a "new" install? [20:36] ki7rw: No, that details compiling the code from source. Also, one of the comments says it doesn[t work on 14.04. [20:36] is there an ubuntu variant that uses systemd ? [20:36] terratoma: not yet. [20:36] bubbasaures: i'd rather not do that :) [20:36] Hmm, maybe you can tell me a better way to do what I actually want to do in the first place, which is executing the jar in a tmux from a bash script so I can attach to it later [20:37] maybe they do in ubuntu+1 ? [20:37] bummer, too bad [20:37] fps, I mean a initial install, if you have installed a lot than I would see a reason for this. [20:37] terratoma: I'm not sure its on schedule to be ready by 15.04, but the process is starting. Its in the roadmaps at least. You can try asking there though :) [20:37] but the commenters may have done something wrong that prevents it from installing [20:38] i used to be a giant systemd hater , over in centos7 land, but ive changed my mind [20:40] bubbasaures: it's a running system [20:40] bubbasaures: which i have to size down a little to be able to do some restructuring [20:40] moving stuff to lxc's etc. [20:41] fps, linux runs quite well, what makes you think this is even an issue for you? [20:41] i'd rather not interrupt operations for a new install and subsequent restoring from backup [20:41] of data [20:41] bubbasaures: you're not interested in the question i had. so we can end this here :) [20:42] bubbasaures: thanks for your input though [20:42] Excellent === Aristide is now known as JeSuisCharly [20:46] k === pasha is now known as Guest69440 [20:48] Happy New Year!

I used that app on 12.04... now I want to use the 64 bit driver and it won't install because the old one is installed. [20:51] So I'm trying to remove the old one [20:51] apb1963, Is there a working what ever this is in the ubuntu repos? I assume it;s just the driver right? [20:51] apb1963: What's the output of "dpkg -l | grep -i iscan"? [20:52] hi all - I just installed smartmontools and wondering how I enable the monitoring [20:52] I see on RedHat it's chkconfig smartd on [20:52] but can't figure out what the command is in Ubuntu [20:52] http://paste.ubuntu.com/9689615/ [20:54] jmadero, Ubuntu like many distros have tons of wiki's please check for them. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools [20:54] well, i enabled hpet in grub. But I'm still not getting the performance I'm looking for. I'm trying to run a server for an old game and get a server side fps of 1000 [20:54] bubbasaures: I saw this, but I didn't see any similar command [20:54] and i have an 8 core amd, it shouldn't be a problem [20:54] apb1963: Then you could try "dpkg --remove iscan". Or possibly "apt-get remove iscan" [20:54] jmadero, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools#Testing_a_Drive [20:54] I thought maybe monitoring is enabled by default once you install smartmontools [20:55] apb1963: That may, or may not, remove the iscan-data package as well. [20:55] bubbasaures: I have tested it already, it's fine, but I set up a config to silent test and email me if there is a problem [20:55] I just want to make sure that's working [20:55] jmadero: you didn't see "Advanced: Running as Smartmontools as a Daemon" [20:56] I didn't, but I will look now, thanks [20:56] I... it's a giant heading and in the ToC.... [20:56] jmadero: I think at the very least, you'll need to modify /etc/default/smartmontools [20:57] tgm4883: it is indeed :-b [20:57] jmadero: And then either reboot or start the service manually, /etc/init.d/smartmontools start [20:57] yeah I see, this is awesome [20:57] I wish this was installed by default [20:58] had a couple drives fail on me, having a heads up would have been nice :_b [20:59] How can I start a tmux session from root as the user mc so the user mc can use it later?

[21:01] do i have to have hpet disabled in the bios in order for it to work? I'm seeing this on random threads [21:01] has anyone ever been able to get an audible 'beep' to happen in irssi + ubuntu ? [21:01] well..that sucks, the daemon fails to start [21:03] Hi. Short question. Is there a script to build binary packages from sources (ubuntu) for ARM platform like Odroid U3 oder XU ? [21:03] good day, folks. I am not familiar enough with Ubuntu, but I was asked today to install libvirt on a workstation. How do I get the service to start, and ensure it starts on reboot? If I recall, it's a chkconfig command, but my memory is fuzzy at best. [21:03] This is on a 14.04.1 Workstation, if that matters. [21:04] At this point, I've installed libvirt-bin, kvm and qemu. === JeSuisCharly is now known as Charlistide [21:04] the services all appear to be running, but I am getting the error "libvirtError: internal error: Cannot find suitable emulator for x86_64" when attempting to connect with Virtual Machine Manager [21:06] avid_fan: that put me on the right path. Thank you! [21:06] apb1963: No problem. Glad it worked for you. [21:07] bubbasaures: Also thank you for your efforts [21:07] avid_fan: now I just need to figure out why the application isn't talking to the scanner :/ [21:08] apb1963: Good luck with that. :-) [21:09] avid_fan: thanks I'll need it [21:10] hola [21:10] poops3: if you just made the change to your user to put them in the nagios group, then you will need to log off and logon again for the changes to take effect. Also, good choice with icinga2, I sent last weekend setting it up myself on one of my servers (although I'm still trying to wrap my head around their clustering options) [21:11] avid_fan: In case someone else asks... the trick is to replug the usb cable... should be interesting to see what I need to do to get the network version running.

[22:09] nishanth: seems like its the cisco vpn stuff breaking things: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=53192 [22:09] svetlana: any ideas [22:09] nishanth: not without you answering the last question :) [22:09] how are you starting screen? Do you simply run 'screen' in your terminal or are you using some kind of script? [22:10] You could also take a look at /etc/screenrc (system defaults) [22:10] Segfault_, I simply type screen into the terminal. (SSH) then from their I run a node.js websocket server and then I the ctrl + a,d [22:10] nishanth: do you have a vpn installed? -- if so, which one? [22:11] does the node.js log provide any useful informatino? [22:11] where can i find oracle applications vmware image? [22:12] s/informatino/information/ [22:12] Segfault_, No... Their is no idication of a crash or anything in fact its displays a log almost as if I had ctrl + c'd the application (showing signs of a clean shutdown) [22:15] tankerkiller125: true [22:17] tankerkiller125: You potty mouth [22:17] i can't find a linux usb booter that boots windows well. when booting windows 7, it keeps asking for drivers from the dvd, and when booting windows 8, it says the file isn't contiguous (i even tried defragmenting it in windows). any suggestions? [22:18] WyZeGuY: try winehq then use RUFUS. [22:18] macataxs, ok i will. have you done that before to know it works well? [22:19] tankerkiller125: What about cron? Have you checked your cron jobs to see if anything might be doing something it shouldn't? [22:19] Segfault_, How would I check my crons? [22:20] crontab -e [22:20] also check /etc/cron.* directories [22:21] Segfault_, Only one cron job and it pulls my git to my site I'll check that directory now [22:22] how often does it run? If it runs once a day it might be worth at least looking into [22:22] Segfault_, Several things in cron.daily and several things in cron.weekly... I don't think any of them are the one causing the issue. My site puller runs once every hour so I don't think that it could be the issue [22:23] WyZeGuY: look up also the DD command. [22:24] macataxs, DD fixes files, doesn't it? [22:24] is the screen process killed around the same time every day, or is it exactly 24 hours after it has started? [22:24] WyZeGuY: You putting an iso on usb? [22:25] i don't think you can use dd with Windows ISOs [22:25] Segfault_, Exactly 24 hours after it starts [22:25] macataxs, i'm trying to. i've run into crashes a few times, and always forget to back up windows to another hard drive first. but yes, i need it on at least one drive [22:26] daftykins: try it. Its fast. [22:26] macataxs: i have tried it and it was non working, dd was fine for Linux ISOs. [22:27] Then try WINEHQ install RUFUS. [22:28] macataxs, ok, thank you [22:33] tankerkiller125> (Oh and BTW thier are no IRC Cops thier called IRC network operators dumb ass) [22:33] Gentlemen. [22:33] tankerkiller125> Why are you like this? Did your mother not love you enough when you grew up? [22:34] macataxs> Did you do to much crack [22:35] You dirty mouth tankerkiller125 [22:35] Unfortantly it appears that I won't be able to get the help I need because the wonderful Ubuntu communty has been infected by trolls attempting to get me banned [22:35] Don't worry macataxs the IRC operators will hear about this one :) [22:37] * rww looks up [22:37] tankerkiller125: Huh.. Any special config on this machine or is it a pretty clean ubuntu install? [22:37] Segfault_, Well its a OVH default... So how clean I don't know [22:38] macataxs, winehq website lists rufus compatibility as garbage. additionally, i can't get it to run [22:38] But its pretty dang clean except for the hosts being changed to support my subdomains and apache and a couple other things but nothing special (a git server and a CI neither should be interfering with anything) [22:40] rww, could you please unban him? he was helping me [22:41] re [22:41] tankerkiller125: Have you tried contacting OVH support? A process being killed after 24 hours it not normal behaviour. You should try using another terminal multiplexer too, like tmux or something. See if the same thing happens then [22:41] rww, i need to get windows to work from usb [22:41] Considering that neither of the suggestions he made were in any way useful, no, he wasn't. [22:41] try starting two screen sessions, one running node.js, the other running... top, or anything else. Do both get killed? [22:41] (also: this isn't his first time being an idiot in here) [22:42] Segfault_, Ah good question and I thought about that. Yes both do get killed [22:42] rww, ok. well do you know how i can get any windows version to run from usb? i'd prefer windows 7, but anything would be fine. unetbootin doesn't really work [22:42] Segfault_, I will look into tmux for now since OBH can take 48 hours and often more to respond [22:44] WyZeGuY: the installer or the whole os? [22:45] WyZeGuY: Microsoft's supported way requires an existing Windows installation. There's also winusb that apparently runs on Ubuntu, but it's out of date. [22:45] cecja, i don't know how to answer that. i have the iso's to install them, and i need to install the whole OS on a drive [22:45] Personally, I always just went with the Microsoft suggestion, but I have plenty of Windows PCs available at work to do that with :\ [22:45] Hello, I am trying to use 2 microsoft lifetouch USB webcams to create stereoscopic vision for my robot, and am having a little bit of trouble with streaming data from both camera's at the same time. I have googled around many links, and seems as if other people have same issue. Would this be the place to ask about usb bus issues? [22:47] WyZeGuY: ok you want the installer for windows on the usb stick and winusb did fail? [22:48] WyZeGuY: sudo dd if=/path/to/iso/windows.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M; sync replace X with your USB Drive [22:48] I can stream data fine with only one camera instance running (640x480, 30 FPS, MJPEG), but as soon as try to run a second instance of the camera, i receive a usb bus error: 'VIDIOC_STREAMON error 28, No space left on device' [22:48] vs parlez fr [22:48] !fr | androz [22:48] androz: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [22:48] 'space' does not refer to hard drive space [22:48] cecja, with winusb, i added the repository, but winusb isn't there anymore [22:49] cecja, ok i'll try the dd suggestion [22:49] ok mr6 [22:49] l0g1x: are you on a laptop or workstation? [22:49] pretty sure I've done dd with a Windows ISO before and it didn't work [22:50] issue occurs on laptop, VM, workstation, and ARM boards [22:50] all running 14.04 [22:50] which doesn't surprise me, since Linux ISOs don't work either unless they're prepared with isohybrid [22:50] tankerkiller125: Good luck, I am out of ideas :P Might be some weird OVH stuff happening, I saw some references to problems with terminal multiplexers on OVH VPS's while googling for info [22:50] dd doesnt work with windows isos. [22:51] l0g1x: you have two choices first you can plug in the cameras on two different usbhosts or you have to use different protocols [22:51] Segfault_, Its not a VPS its a dedicated... However OVH does in force thier stupid Ubuntu PPA clones intead of the real Ubuntu PPA's [22:51] might be relevant: http://serverfault.com/questions/523098/gnu-screen-tmux-dvtm-none-are-working-as-ordinary-user-on-ovh-vps?rq=1 [22:52] cecja: by usbhosts do you mean the second camera be connected through pci-e usb cartidge? [22:53] l0g1x: not exactly when you run lsusb you should see different BUS numbers for your usb ports [22:53] cecja: so if i used YUYV for camera1 and MJPEG for camera2, on the same bus, it would work? [22:53] ciao! === onemansubmarine is now known as list [22:53] cecja, how can i tell which sd# my usb drive is? [22:54] cecja, right-click properties doesn't show the sd# i don't see it in / [22:54] WyZeGuY: sed -ne 's/.*\([sh]d[a-zA-Z]\+$\)/\/dev\/\1/p' /proc/partitions [22:55] l0g1x: you have to use the one with the lesser impact on the data rate one usb host just cant handle 2x640x480 30fps streams in mjpeg [22:56] l0g1x: i got the same problem on a pi and scaled down to 320x240 24fps which was enough for my cause [22:56] cecja, that returned "sed: -e expression #1, char 34: unterminated `s' command [22:57] cecja: right now i only have access to my VM ubuntu (parallels). When i type lsusb, with the camera's unplugged i dont think i see any usb busses showing. http://pastebin.com/AF869ENs [22:57] does anyone have any experience with installing Openbox on Ubuntu? [22:58] l0g1x: its all one bus i dont know if parallels can simulate two busses in virtualbox you can define two [22:58] Fred_Yuan, wei [22:58] cecja: this is with plugged in http://pastebin.com/XWDCQA0k [22:58] I installed Openbox on Ubuntu 14.04 but I can't get the autostart to work [22:58] thon_: Just ask your actual question, if anyone can help they'll respond :) [22:58] can someone give me some guidance? [22:58] I did Jordan_U ;D [22:59] WyZeGuY: thats really strange mom you can try plugin it out and plug it back in and then check dmesg [22:59] thon_: You haven't asked an actionable question yet. What have you done so far? What problem are you having? [22:59] I did [22:59] thon_: What did you try to do? How did you try to do it? What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? [22:59] !doesnt work [22:59] Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [22:59] cecja: ideally, i will want to be running this on either Nvidia Jetson TK1, or Radxa Rock ARM boards, so i most likely wont be able to "simulate" two busses like i would if i could in parallels (havent tried it yet) [22:59] I installed Openbox, configured autostart.sh, made sure it was exec and it didn't work [22:59] when i logged out and back in [22:59] cecja, nevermind i found it with 'fdisk -l' [23:00] thon_: How did you "configure autostart.sh"? What does "doesn't work" mean? What were you expecting to happen? What happened instead? [23:00] thon_: Openbox is not widely used, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox [23:00] cecja, actually no, i don't think it's there [23:01] WyZeGuY: can you make a pastebin of the output from mount [23:01] l0g1x: the jetson has two usb hosts it should be working fine [23:01] cecja: is what usb bus a usb-device goes on, pre-determined by how the hardware was manufactured? or is that related to kernel level [23:01] l0g1x: no its the physical usb ports [23:02] I already checked there. I configured ~/.config/openbox/autostart with gedit. For instance, i added "tint2 &" to the config file, saved it and closed it. Logged out and logged back in, and tint2 didn't launch. But it will launch if I run "tint2" in a terminal [23:02] cecja, even though they didn't work? [23:02] I don't know how much more detailed I can get than that other than saying NO WORKIE. [23:02] thon_: Please pastebin your complete ~/.config/openbox/autostart . [23:02] cecja: from my knowledge, it only has one actual usb host, and the other one (micro-usb) is used for flashing [23:02] one second. [23:03] WyZeGuY: when the line is blinking on your usb stick you should have them assigned to one /dev/sdX [23:04] ciao [23:04] I just installed gnome-shell, I log out and there's no choice for a gnome session??? [23:04] cecja: my i plugged in the cameras into two seperate physical usb ports (motherboard), and they went on the same bus (motherboard has 6, and i tried switching where i plugged in cameras, and they all went on same bus). [23:04] I just discovered with netstat -antp that ports 904 and 905 is listening (some python script) but I don't have started any python script, is it some type of malware (maybe RAT?) [23:04] riceNbeans: clicked on the small icon next to the username? [23:04] thon_: You've now given useful information that we can start troubleshooting with, but for your sake and the sake of anyone who helps you in the future, please don't ever say "It doesn't work", or variations thereof, again when asking for help. [23:05] yoytutyu you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [23:05] l0g1x: in the virtual machine?

[23:06] cecja: no desktop [23:06] l0g1x: you are right the jetson can only handle multiple "high res" cams over Ethernet :/ [23:07] k1l: 14.04.1 [23:07] cecja: i was talking about desktop, but i also did tried this on my mac running the VM and connected to two seperate physical usb ports [23:08] k1l: i picked the g something another desktop manager in the prompt during install, but it looks like it's the same unity one [23:08] riceNbeans: http://itsfoss.itsfoss.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Change_Desktop_Environment_Ubuntu.jpeg [23:08] l0g1x: do you have front ports on the desktop? === shawn is now known as Guest47391 [23:08] Hi anyone here that can help me with some display resolution issues? [23:09] l0g1x: or can you dump the output in a pastebin? [23:09] did you see the pastebin Jordan_U ? [23:09] thon_: Try an ~/.config/openbox/autostart containing only "date >> /tmp/yay_it_ran.txt" to confirm that the autostart script is being run at all. (after logging back in check for the file /tmp/yay_it_ran.txt, which should contain the date and time you logged in). === Guest47391 is now known as Smokey1974 === effiejayx is now known as keffie_jayx [23:10] cecja, http://pastebin.com/3MB7ZusU [23:10] cecja: i only have access to the VM at the moment, but when you ask for output, what are you referring too? [23:11] Can someone help me with adding a screen resolution? [23:11] 'adding' ? [23:11] WyZeGuY: it seems like /dev/sdb is a usb drive with 16gig formated for FAT32 [23:12] cecja, yes [23:12] cecja, ooooooooooh. sdb1 [23:12] l0g1x: the VM emulates USB Bus and will always stay the same unless parallels is able to passtrough usb directly [23:13] WyZeGuY: you have to dd directly to the device /dev/sdb and not to the partition /dev/sdb1 [23:13] cecja, should i leave it as fat32 for writing a windows iso, or should i change it to something different? [23:13] Yes my only choices are 1280x720 or the max of 1920x1080 On a 42 inch LCD.... I need 1440x900 The 1280x820 makes everything way to big and the 1920x1080 everything way to small [23:14] cecja, so dd with the command you gave me before? [23:14] WyZeGuY: when you dd the iso to the usb stick it will take care of everything [23:14] WyZeGuY: exactly [23:14] and its detecting my 42in lcd tv as a 32in instead [23:14] cecja, you are a wonderful human being [23:14] WyZeGuY: I'm pretty sure that Microsoft's install isos can't simply be dd'd to a USB drive. For help making a bootable Windows install USB please join ##windows. [23:14] Smokey1974: LCDs have a 1:1 resolution, you should match it then adjust your DPI so that desktop items are scaled to look more readable [23:15] Smokey1974: how its connected? any adapters involved? [23:15] HDMI No adapters [23:16] any help with openvpn issue. http://pastebin.com/ntfBaBk3 [23:16] Jordan_U, ok well i'm trying it, but joined ##windows and asked as well [23:16] Jordan_U, I did get the yay.txt file in the /tmp/ [23:16] Jordan_U: if the motherboard is able to boot from USB-CDROM its possible. [23:18] k1l, Its HDMI straight from the Nvida GTX 460 card to the TV [23:18] Smokey1974: that's good. [23:19] Smokey1974: go for full hd and set the ppi [23:19] WyZeGuY: if dd doesnt work query me [23:20] I am really new to Ubuntu k1l , How do I set the ppi? [23:20] hola [23:20] cecja: Not at all. The protocol for booting from CDs is completely different from that for hard drives, for both BIOS and UEFI. dding an iso to a USB drive doesn't make boot firmware treat that USB hard drive as a USB cdrom drive. [23:21] Smokey1974: are you on the standard ubuntu with unity? [23:21] WyZeGuY: DD might work. Windows made it hard to put it on usb [23:21] BlueProtoman: welcome back o/ [23:22] daftykins, Yes [23:22] daftykins, Finally got Ubuntu and Windows playing nicely on my new SSHD! [23:22] Got all my data backed up, too [23:22] thon_: OK, so your autostart script is clearly being run. Why in your original script were you using '&&'? Do you understand that that operator will only run the command on the right after the command on the left exits, and even then only if it exits with 0 as its exit status? [23:22] BlueProtoman: neat :D [23:22] I'm trying to run rumrunner ( http://rumrunner.us/ ) on my HTC One X, and I need to get ADB working. Can I adapt the instructions at http://esausilva.com/2010/05/13/setting-up-adbusb-drivers-for-android-devices-in-linux-ubuntu/ for Utopic? [23:23] Smokey1974: click the settings cog icon on the left launcher then, and open the display settings item, after setting the resolution to 1920x1080 you can drag the DPI slider i think [23:23] daftykins, Now I have an unrelated issue, though. And for some reason, I didn't have it with Ubuntu on my old HDD. The screen is not rendering properly; e.g. if I move my cursor around I see shadows of it blinking in and out; likewise if I move a window around or anything. [23:23] Ah. That was my issue. I copied that chunk from my #! install. Thanks, I'm an idiot [23:23] thon_: You're welcome :) [23:25] Anyone mind giving me a hand? http://i.imgur.com/PqQluhP.png [23:25] BlueProtoman: look at you mister greedy with your 4 mouse pointers! [23:26] BlueProtoman: haha i see, that's a bit odd. is it just the pointer repeating or the artefact under the pointer to the right too? [23:26] popey, I'm half octopus [23:26] graphics card + driver in use would be handy to know [23:26] daftykins, Artifacts, yes, that's the word. Those appear frequently, too, though it's mostly associated with the pointer, yes. [23:26] daftykins, How can I get that info? [23:27] BlueProtoman: "lspci" in a terminal, look for the graphics adapter entry. for a driver, you'll know if you've installed one since installing ubuntu, but "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" could be handy too [23:28] This even happened to a lesser extend while I was reinstalling Ubuntu via the Live USB (i.e. when booted off the USB). [23:28] Here's my Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/9690218/ [23:29] Whats a good system to keep services alive in ubuntu 14.02 [23:29] in case of failure and one shuts down [23:29] sde: the man [23:29] I am on ubuntu 14.10 and I am trying to use a usb to hdmi adapter. everywhere I read states that on kernel 3.9 + they generally just work now. But no matter what I do I can't get it to work. No new displays show up. I was wondering if anyone knew something else I could try. [23:29] I am also using an nvidia GPU [23:29] sde, this a server? [23:30] daftykins, Also, lspci http://paste.ubuntu.com/9690227/ [23:30] Yep, server. [23:30] sde, A ubuntu server? [23:30] BlueProtoman: what driver is in use? [23:30] yes, 14.02/04 [23:30] k1l, How can I tell? [23:31] k1l: intel and nouveau [23:31] BlueProtoman: at first: mdid you install something? [23:31] looking forward to systemd in a way but for now we need to start monitoring our services [23:31] and restarting them if needed after logging message [23:31] sde, Never heard of anything the way you have worded it, but not a server person, there is #ubuntu-server as well if needed. [23:31] k1l, Just bumblebee, but I haven't turned it on yet, and this was happening before I did so anyway [23:31] BlueProtoman: ok you need to hit the additional drivers setup to try installing an nvidia proprietary driver along with nvidia-prime [23:31] Oh, thanks bubbasaures [23:31] ah ok. so i would say to install the nvidia-current and nvidia-prime to get the proper support for your setup [23:32] daftykins, D'oh! I always forget to do that when I install Ubuntu [23:32] ;) [23:32] same hardware as my laptop by the looks [23:32] such video glitches can be caused by not using the driver that supports the hardware like it should [23:32] daftykins, Samsung QX411?

[23:34] cecja: did you use mjpeg or yuyv? [23:34] tankerkiller125, What makes you say that? [23:35] Also, do people actually use mjpeg for anything? [23:35] BlueProtoman, AMD Graphics and Ubuntu = Don't like each other very much [23:35] tankerkiller125, Oh, yes, right [23:35] AMD APU so its not like I can disable the graphics either :P [23:35] l0g1x: mjpeg are you still trying to do this from the VM? if yes you have to scale it down even further the emulated usb ports slow down your usb speed [23:36] cecja: ah okay. and yes VM [23:36] cecja: for me it works if i change to yuyv pixel format [23:37] l0g1x: if it works its fine, i think you have to test the performance on the real hardware [23:37] complaining about something slow in a VM? no sympathy. === defrit is now known as defrit_ [23:38] daftykins, Hey, gotta do something while waiting for a VM to compile something [23:39] eh? === exe is now known as Guest22783 === defrit_ is now known as defrit [23:41] "Hey!

I am on 14.10 and cannot seem to get anything to work with a usb 2 to hdmi adapter [23:45] you mean DisplayPort? [23:45] oh no [23:46] USB to HDMI, oh dear that's a horrid idea [23:46] no. video drivers [23:46] lol. its to have an extra monitor. works great on pc [23:46] you mean Windows? [23:46] yeah, they aren't well supported yet === defrit is now known as defrit_sleep [23:47] there are some funky ones too [23:47] dell do a 3 port one [23:47] err, Yea. windows 7 [23:47] yea from everything that i have read, is that the DisplayLink driver support got far better in kernel 3.9 and i am on 3.13 [23:48] heh [23:48] so how far do you get after plugging it in, then plugging in an HDMI display? [23:48] err, i mean i am on kernel 3.16.0.29-generic [23:48] probably worth watching dmesg | tail immediately after the USB plug portion [23:48] nothing happens at all [23:48] I think the driver just isn't developed yet [23:48] sometimes theres a slight flicker when i plug in the display to the adapter [23:50] I am trying to install yifi codec pack.exe and it just gives me an archive error message. how do i instal this so that i can watch these movies i downloaded from yiifi [23:51] Does anyone know how to get ADB working? I keep reading about udev, but I can't find a clear cut guide. [23:51] jharm: it's a .exe - it's not going to work. [23:51] jharm: What type of files? [23:51] so im fucked and there is no way for me to watch these movies [23:52] thurstylark: try an android channel [23:52] jharm: don't use that language please - and yes, most likely no option [23:52] sounds like a shifty source anyway [23:52] sorry I am new to all of this [23:52] daftykins: I'm having a ubuntu problem, not an android problem. [23:53] thurstylark: i know that, but android devs would be familiar with it wouldn't they... i'm giving you a separate avenue for support :) [23:53] jharm: although are you trying to say it's "yify" ? [23:54] I got the torrent from yify.com [23:54] jharm: It sounds like you want to play videos that you have torrented from Yify. What is the file extension at the end of your download? [23:54] jharm: ok so really it's just format support, you don't need codecs from some windows installer at all. however, this content is illegal so i'm not going to help. seems thurstylark is going to lend a hand though if you're lucky [23:54] yes that is correct. they downloaded fine but when I went to play them it says I need their codec pack\ [23:55] daftykins: Gotcha. Sorry, Just making sure I wasn't misunderstood :) [23:55] jharm: What. Is. The. File. Extension. [23:55] thurstylark: since you mentioned udev i figured you have the tools installed all fine, it's just device detection that's funky? [23:55] .mp4 [23:56] i am amazed people are still looking for codecs in 2015 [23:56] !codecs | jharm [23:56] jharm: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/media.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:56] doh_, as am I [23:56] just download vlc, damn it [23:56] or xbmc [23:56] jharm: Yeah, throw it at vlc. [23:56] i have it but i want to stream to my chromecast [23:57] doh_, I would expect the codecs to be open source and free by now but NOOO the people who made the codecs what more money.... [23:57] jharm: Ahh. the real goal. [23:57] can chromecast accept any stream? vlc can stream anything [23:57] i do love it when we eventually get told the truth. [23:57] yeah nothing like beating around the bush haha [23:57] still illegal though so i'm out. === timothy is now known as Guest40078 [23:58] tankerkiller125, there's x264, also x265. what's missing? [23:58] jharm: I use Plex as my media server, and their mobile app has Chromecast support. plex.tv [23:58] daftykins, Its stealing from the producers that steak from us... How is that harmful exactly? [23:58] that is what i tried to play it in and it told me i need codec [23:58] I mean I'm not trying to support Piracy just saying [23:59] doh_, No idea all I know is that some companies like to use some really really weird formats. [23:59] jharm: so, you opened the .mp4 file in vlc, and it didn't play? [23:59] jharm, if so thats a first for VLC... [23:59] hello [23:59] how do I convert ubuntu iso to raw type [23:59] Hello Guest40078 [23:59] will not play in vlc or plex [23:59] tankerkiller125: this isn't a place for your soapbox :)
