xreal | Where can I find Ubuntu 14.04 server mini isos? | 00:00 |
* bubbasaures volunteers for an homeless org for the hand holding | 00:00 | |
squinty | xreal: main ubuntu site alternate downloads | 00:00 |
xreal | squinty: can find "unlabeled" ISOs only. Don't know if it's server or desktop | 00:01 |
xreal | squinty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 00:01 |
OerHeks | That is not the server, xreal. | 00:01 |
squinty | xreal: afaik, minimal is not the same as server release. check main site as stated before | 00:01 |
xreal | OerHeks: that's why I asked :) | 00:02 |
OerHeks | there is no server mini, only mini or server. | 00:02 |
xreal | squinty: I think, there is no mini server :( | 00:02 |
xreal | Why do I need to download a 600 MB ISO for a server installation? That's overkill. | 00:02 |
squinty | oh for petes sake | 00:02 |
xreal | Can you install Ubuntu server using chroot? | 00:03 |
b100s | hi2all | 00:03 |
OerHeks | No, it is not overkill. | 00:03 |
b100s | what version of ubuntu should i get 64 or 32? and how can i decide? | 00:03 |
bubbasaures | !mini | xreal, there is the net install, tiny and you have the choices you want | 00:03 |
ubottu | xreal, there is the net install, tiny and you have the choices you want: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 00:03 |
OerHeks | b100s, check your cpu. if it is 64 bit, you have a choise | 00:04 |
xreal | bubbasaures: I know, but there's no server net install. | 00:04 |
bubbasaures | xreal, Uh yes there is. | 00:04 |
squinty | b100s: check your computer docs and/or if another os is installed see if 32 or 64 | 00:04 |
b100s | 2x Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz | 00:05 |
bubbasaures | xreal, THe net is the base with a huge choice, you can install the server | 00:05 |
b100s | now i'm using 32 lubuntu and it is so sloow | 00:05 |
xreal | bubbasaures: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server => "alternative downloads..." leads to the normal download image :( | 00:05 |
Milena23 | There is no such thing as Free Porn http://bitly.com/1nx3K4c | 00:05 |
xreal | bubbasaures: oh, you get asked while installation? let me try | 00:05 |
Bashing-om | b100s: Generally, install 64 bit with > 4 Gigs of ram on 64 bit capable systems . | 00:05 |
squinty | b100s: you probably need to check your video drivers or memory amount then. see Additional Drivers in software and updates | 00:06 |
ki7mt_ | xreal, from the mini ISO, use Tasksel | 00:06 |
xreal | ki7mt_: oh, tasksel does it? okay, let me try | 00:06 |
xreal | thanks for help | 00:06 |
squinty | Milena23: take it elsewhwere | 00:06 |
b100s | i have 4Gb RAM, is it ok? | 00:06 |
squinty | yes | 00:07 |
squinty | plenty | 00:07 |
b100s | video drivers? waht about that? | 00:07 |
bubbasaures | b100s, Check the memory use you may just be swapping | 00:07 |
b100s | bubbasaures, what do you mean? how can i done that? | 00:08 |
squinty | b100s: look in main menu for Software and Updates > Additional drivers or type in search additional drivers | 00:08 |
bubbasaures | b100s, htop probably I use a conky, swappiness is the key if it is | 00:08 |
squinty | b100s: htop will need to be installed. you can just type top in a terminal too | 00:09 |
bubbasaures | for the record statistically starting with the easiest answer and moving up that ladder gives answers the most efficiently. | 00:10 |
b100s | i have htop, what should i get from that? | 00:10 |
b100s | and i totally didnt get about drivers | 00:10 |
Moonlightning | This is odd. I used `efibootmgr` to set BootNext to 'Built-in EFI Shell' and the timeout to 10 seconds, but I didn't get an EFI shell on reboot | 00:11 |
Moonlightning | Tried changing the boot order to put the shell first, but it got changed again to something else at some point during the next reboot | 00:11 |
squinty | b100s: just take a breath and then follow the advice given to you | 00:12 |
El-Osmodivs | squinty, I can't boot because I have a bad block on the HDD | 00:13 |
b100s | squidly, done ) i see out of htop and cant extract answer to question: should i install 64 or 32 ubuntu, can you help me? | 00:13 |

I recently upgraded my server to 14.04, and unfortunately, that broke both webaccess and webapp of zarafa which now has no installation candidate, and trying to install those packages manually, gives that they depend on php5-mapi, which also, has no installation candidate.

cryptodan | do you want a screenshot? | 03:07 |
Ether_Man | Yes I am... You're telling me to do things that I've said gives error and you tell me to resolve the error to do the exact thing that gives the error... | 03:07 |
Ether_Man | Yes... Which relies on phpapi-20090626 | 03:08 |
Ether_Man | Which is not available for 14.04 | 03:08 |
Ether_Man | Or atleast, not available in the default repos | 03:08 |
cryptodan | I am not talking about the repos | 03:08 |
bubbasaures | Ether_Man, I would stop and go to #ubuntu-server | 03:08 |
cryptodan | You see where my mouse cursor is: http://i.imgur.com/6LSwBHa.png | 03:09 |
Ether_Man | Neither am I... Read what I wrote... I need phpapi-20090626 to install the php5-mapi from the zarafa site | 03:09 |

Qbuo | I dunno much about ubuntu as i am very new | 04:34 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, a partial upgrade? | 04:34 |
RNeville | I'm not sure bubbasaures | 04:34 |
RNeville | I'm a newbie to Linux | 04:34 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, How did you upgrade apt will show you packages held this is a partial the gui will warn you. | 04:35 |
Qbuo | I need experienced help, so i dont have to wipe my whole hard drive and start again | 04:35 |
Qbuo | Anybody? | 04:35 |
RNeville | I didn't use apt-get at the command line | 04:35 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, Software updater? | 04:36 |
LinuxGold | Qbuo: state your problem and we might try and help. | 04:36 |
RNeville | I think so bubbasaures | 04:36 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, No warning on a partial update/upgrade? | 04:36 |
Qbuo | I'm trying to launch steam. It suddenly cut off after i restarted my computer. When i type "steam" in terminal, it says sucess, even though when i clikc on the icon, it glows blue and then stops. | 04:37 |
RNeville | Can I use something like a "find" command to search for Chrome and Chromium - I had them installed before the update | 04:37 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, What desktop are you using? | 04:37 |
RNeville | Unity, I think? | 04:38 |
RNeville | Do I need to reboot , after software update runs? | 04:38 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, the windows key brings up the 'dash' search top of the left bar button as well. | 04:38 |
RNeville | I've already tried that bubbasaures , and I can't find Chrome or Chromium | 04:38 |
RNeville | Maybe, I'm confused; I have run Clonezilla, recently - maybe I'm booting off the wrong disk | 04:39 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, An update would not remove these, if all was well before and no partial was run. | 04:39 |
RNeville | However, I think I'm running off the correct HD | 04:40 |
RNeville | Anyway, I'll check things out - sorry to bother everyone | 04:40 |

Qbuo | LinuxGold, i already looked it up and dint find much more than the suggestion it could have something to do with graphics | 04:41 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, A partial update could do anything, you don;t ever do it. | 04:41 |
RNeville | bubbasaures: when you say "partial" is this an interupted update - of some sort, or I'm I missing something | 04:42 |
arun_ | why does chesse doesn't work to do video recording? it gets not-responding... | 04:43 |
bubbasaures | RNeville, Partial update means missing packages, is all, many developers and some times not everything is popped to the repos at the same time, rare but happens. | 04:43 |
LinuxGold | qbuo: try #ubuntu-steam and ask from there. | 04:44 |
RNeville | thx bubbasaures | 04:44 |
bubbasaures | yes you could say a stopped update is partial, however not a true partial update, good to ask though RNeville | 04:44 |
celexi | what is the best way to move all files from a hard drive to another | 04:45 |
LinuxGold | Qubo: can you go to that channel and ask if they know your problem? | 04:45 |

LinuxGold | in #ubuntu-steam | 04:45 |
bubbasaures | celexi, What files? | 04:45 |
celexi | all files including system files | 04:45 |
RNeville | Is there a command to get info. about my boot HD? | 04:46 |
celexi | ext4 partition | 04:46 |
bubbasaures | celexi, Are you just trying to move the whole thing to a new HD to boot and use it? | 04:46 |
RNeville | e.g., lspci ? | 04:46 |
celexi | yeah bubbasaures | 04:46 |
bubbasaures | celexi, clone it | 04:46 |
celexi | with what ? | 04:46 |
celexi | dd i think needs both hard drives to be identical | 04:47 |
bubbasaures | celexi, I use clonezilla but you would need an external that will hold it to load to the new HD, it is just data at the clone point. | 04:47 |
bubbasaures | or a network somewhere to store the clone | 04:47 |
celexi | nice, thanks! | 04:48 |
bubbasaures | clonezilla needs equal or larger partitions is all | 04:48 |
ganeshp | Hi all, I have installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bits on my home desktop. When I run system updater it shows system has no updates. But if I run sudo apt-get upgrade, it shows around 8 upgrades available related to compiz. Kindly advise. thanks | 05:08 |
lotuspsychje | ganeshp: its safe to sudo apt-get upgrade, not sure why the updater doesnt show | 05:09 |
lotuspsychje | ganeshp: did you try a sudo apt-get update yet? | 05:09 |
ganeshp | @lotuspsychje - thank you so much. I shall run those upgrades right away | 05:09 |
domovoi | it doesnt show for me either randomly , i just do the apt-get-upgrade , i mean if the updates are there ? why not | 05:09 |
lotuspsychje | you can check if the updater icon is on your startup items | 05:10 |
ganeshp | @lotuspsychje - yes I did sudo apt-get update before running upgrade option | 05:10 |

domovoi | i understand that , but i wanted newer graphics drivers ? I was just curious if you knew how i could diagnose that black screen time after the login myself ? cat log ? something | 05:17 |
lotuspsychje | domovoi: xorg log, syslog, dmesg can show you usefull stuff | 05:18 |
lotuspsychje | domovoi: there is also a lightdm log somewhere to see time loading from login to desktop | 05:18 |

jamie_ | hey... I am trying to set up a :n+1 but for some odd reason it wont init x server | 05:42 |
davidu | Hi, I can log in with my password via tty1, but I am not able to login via tty7. Do you know what should I do? | 05:43 |
davidu | It just flashes and asks again for the password | 05:44 |
davidu | I have recently fixed my boot loader. | 05:44 |
davidu | May be that is the reason | 05:44 |
bubbasaures | not even close | 05:44 |
bubbasaures | davidu, man tty | 05:46 |
davidu | bubbasaures: I cannot login via gui, but I can login via cmd | 05:47 |
jamie_ | not sure what to tell ya.. im have problems with my tty8 | 05:47 |
bubbasaures | davidu, sounds like a graphic driver issue as a guess, no idea I run intel, but a little cause and effect go a long way, and one issue at a time. | 05:48 |
bubbasaures | davidu, Just the gui login is what I mean. | 05:49 |
lotuspsychje | !tty | davidu | 05:49 |
ubottu | davidu: To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution | 05:49 |
davidu | bubbasaures: it just asks for password, again and again | 05:49 |
bubbasaures | davidu, no idea I run intel | 05:50 |
jamie_ | yea... i am also haveing a problem with one of my tty | 05:50 |
bubbasaures | davidu, One issue, your switching back and forth | 05:50 |
davidu | bubbasaures: ? | 05:50 |
bubbasaures | davidu, You have a tty issue and a gui login | 05:51 |
bubbasaures | issue | 05:51 |
davidu | bubbasaures: I can login to my system when pressing alt+ctrl+f1 to 6, but I can not login with same password through alt+ctrl+f7! | 05:52 |
davidu | Any help | 05:52 |
davidu | ? | 05:52 |
bubbasaures | davidu, Yeah I know anyway carry on. | 05:52 |
jamie_ | Yea I am having a problem with my tty8 aka :n+1 | 05:54 |
bubbasaures | jamie_, we know, you know the drill, details and patience. | 05:54 |
it_ | hi | 05:54 |
jamie_ | i was on a irc client taht was having a problem and wasnt sure if it had gotten through... so i switched irc clients | 05:55 |
bubbasaures | jamie_, might help, if you see the massage and it is not a channel message back we see it. ;) | 05:55 |
jamie_ | bubbasaures: there was nothing but people coming and going and me randomly coming and going for some odd reason | 05:56 |
bubbasaures | jamie_, I have that off, so never see that, just noticing comments not needed, not in the support norm. You really never want to consider another's problem similar unless you have confirmed this fully, we see people do this all the time. | 05:58 |
jamie_ | bubbasaures: okay sorry about that | 05:58 |
jamie_ | got disconnected again sorry if you replied anything | 06:04 |
davidd | I can login via tty1 to 6, but not 7. Do you know how can I fix it? | 06:12 |
davidd | It just blinks and asks for password | 06:12 |

Finetundra | Is there a way to install KDE without it spilling over to unity and without getting all the kubuntu packages? | 06:17 |
gsenna | should i have nvidia-331 package installed if i currently dont have a nvidia graphics card installed? | 06:20 |
Finetundra | gsenna, I don't think it'll be an issue | 06:20 |
cryptodan | davidd: go to tty8 via ctrl+alt+f8 | 06:21 |
gsenna | but why would i need that package? i have an intel integrated gpu | 06:21 |
bubbasaures | Finetundra, Not really that oi the dual desktop thang is all | 06:22 |
bubbasaures | is* | 06:22 |
gsenna | i find out i have it installed after apt-get failed to update because dkms failed to build the module | 06:22 |
davidd | cryptodan:What should I do after that? | 06:23 |
Finetundra | bubbasaures, you still have managed to leave me confused | 06:24 |
bubbasaures | Finetundra, desktops will show the other desktops installed packages. | 06:25 |
bubbasaures | not much you can do | 06:25 |
cryptodan | davidd: you should be able to login there | 06:25 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, How do you know nvidia is installed? | 06:26 |
davidd | cryptodan: nothing is there. nothing happens when I press alt+ctrl+f8 | 06:26 |
bubbasaures | the apt-get would be nice to see | 06:27 |
cryptodan | davidd: then what did you do? | 06:27 |
davidd | I am still in tty1 | 06:27 |
Finetundra | bubbasaures, oh, thats not what I'm worried about. I'm talking about stuff like window themes. an example would be the web browser Midori looks one way in unity but it looks different in KDE. If you have kubuntu-desktop installed the KDE look gets carried over to unity' | 06:27 |
davidd | cryptodan:tried to move to tty8. But nothing happes | 06:27 |
bubbasaures | Finetundra, Ah, thanks. | 06:28 |
davidd | happens* | 06:28 |
cryptodan | davidd: ctl+alt+f* would change your tty | 06:28 |
gsenna | bubbasaures, 'dpkg -s nvidia-331-updates' | 06:29 |
davidd | cryptodan:ctl+alt+f* did not change it. it just work from 1 to 7 | 06:29 |
Finetundra | bubbasaures, so what I want to know is if there is a way to install KDE without that happening | 06:29 |
cryptodan | thats what it is supposed to do ctrl+alt+f2 will give you tty2, ctrl+alt+f3 will give you tty3, and so on | 06:29 |
davidd | cryptodan:Yes, but it just works until f7. not f8 | 06:30 |
mucus | so i picked up a new windows 8.1 with bing (yes, that's actually part of the name) tablet today for 50 bucks. it has a 64bit cpu, 1gb ram, 16gb internal. i am thinking of nuking win, installing 14.04. | 06:30 |
cryptodan | davidd: thats by design | 06:30 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, updates, not an install | 06:30 |
mucus | seems like a thing to do? | 06:31 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, you have all kinds of updates you do not use | 06:31 |
mucus | is there a way to "backup" this tablet before i go and muck with things? | 06:31 |
davidd | cryptodan: it is not working then | 06:31 |
Seven_Six_Two | has anyone here heard of xorg memory leaks? I'm using mint, but I'm not sure whether it's likely to be upstream or not, so I thought I'd ask. I'm using Rebecca (based on trusty) and an ATI radeon HD | 06:32 |
cryptodan | davidd: you broke your installation | 06:32 |
gsenna | bubbasaures, but 'apt-get upgrade' called dkms and it tried to build a kernel module apparently which failed with a known bug for that package. If i had an nvidia card it would be just that, a bug. As i dont have an nvidia card my question is why would i need an nvidia module? | 06:33 |
ki7mt_ | Finetundra What your asking for is virtually impossible to guarantee as there are potentiality 100's of packages to consider. If you what 100% isolation, use a VM, dual-booth or a separate native install. | 06:33 |
bubbasaures | Seven_Six_Two, You know the mint support here does not exist right? | 06:33 |
ki7mt_ | s/dual-boot/dual-booth/g | 06:33 |
Seven_Six_Two | bubbasaures, yes. I'm not looking for support. I'm looking for confirmation of a possibly common issue. | 06:33 |
davidd | cryptodan: I have fixed my grub recently. this is the result link after fixing it. Could you please check it. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9772672 | 06:33 |
ozzloy | i'm writing a ssh-agent handling script for cygwin. i would like it to behave exactly like ubuntu does. how does ubuntu do this? | 06:34 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, You have the call for it if you wanted it installed, it's in the repos. | 06:34 |
bubbasaures | Seven_Six_Two, not valid no common issues | 06:34 |
bubbasaures | here anyway | 06:34 |
ozzloy | ubuntu will wait until a key is requested, get the user to enter the passphrase, then keep that key unlocked for the session | 06:34 |
ki7mt_ | ozzloy, ssh handling script, Ubuntu? you need to be far more specific, hoever, look at the open ssh source packages for how the code implemented. | 06:35 |
Finetundra | ki7mt_, I guess you have a point. In which case the question would be am I able to completly remove the KDE packages if need be? | 06:35 |
cryptodan | davidd: I do not know why you needed to fix grub, but you broke your install as ctrl+alt+f1-6 should give you 6 tty's and the 7th and 8th should give you your gui | 06:35 |
gsenna | bubbasaures, i've never installed the package myself. Is it possible that the intel Graphics installer need an nvidia package? | 06:35 |
Seven_Six_Two | bubbasaures, sorry, I don't recognize your nick. can you please clarify whether you are speaking from personal experience, or are you here a lot, and haven't heard anything? Thanks. | 06:36 |
davidd | cryptodan: Do you know how should I fix it then? | 06:36 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, ssh agent, not ssh. and i specified the behavior i'm looking for | 06:36 |
cryptodan | davidd: maybe a reinstall | 06:36 |
ki7mt_ | Finetundra, again, the same applies. There's plenty of how-too's floating around, but they may also impact unity. | 06:36 |
davidd | cryptodan:Oh no. :( | 06:37 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, when a key is requested, the user is prompted for the passphrase and the key is unlocked for the session | 06:37 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, You really should not be using that, but I doubt intel would do this, I think you are just a bit confused is all, your conclusions are just guesses. ;) | 06:37 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, how does ubuntu set _that_ up. not ssh, not openssh | 06:37 |
ozzloy | i'm guessing it's a really well configured ssh agent | 06:37 |
ki7mt_ | ozzloy, sorry, but that's not a script that is doing that interaction, my answer still stands, look at the source code for it's implementation. | 06:38 |
bubbasaures | gsenna, A pastebin of your apt-get update would help the channel help you. We are not keen on but "just the facts" Joe Friday | 06:38 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, the source code for what? | 06:38 |
mucus | what're the thoughts of installing 64bit 14.04 on 1gb ram? | 06:39 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, openssh? | 06:39 |
eatyourguitar | what is the latest java package for ubuntu? | 06:39 |
Seven_Six_Two | mucus, it could work, but may require some sacrifices. | 06:40 |
eatyourguitar | the developer version might be better for my needs | 06:40 |
mucus | Seven_Six_Two: define sacrifices. | 06:40 |
ki7mt_ | ozzloy, without doing this for you, I would start with the openssh-client and work from there. | 06:40 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, again, this is ssh-agent | 06:40 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, if you don't know the answer, please don't pretend to know | 06:41 |
ozzloy | it's frustrating | 06:41 |
Seven_Six_Two | mucus, well, you might want to go with one of the lighter-weight ubuntus, or run lighter desktop/apps than stock ubuntu. you could install stock and modify so that it works well, or just use lubuntu or xubuntu | 06:41 |
ki7mt_ | ozzloy, If you would bother to look at the client, openssh-client, it is the authorizing "agent", but work it however you see fit. | 06:42 |
greg_ | has anyone successfully managed to make a usb startup disk for OSx? ive followed every how-to i can find, and cant get my macbook or imac to recognize the usb disk, or possibly even the usb ports, for that matter when i get into the boot menu. | 06:42 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, do you know what ssh-agent is? | 06:42 |
ki7mt_ | Not Idea, never heard of it before. Good luck | 06:43 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, it seems like you're under the impression that that's a term i made up. | 06:43 |
mucus | Seven_Six_Two: mmm, could do ubu server and install xfce? | 06:43 |
Ben64 | ozzloy: openssh-client provides ssh-agent, and i don't see how what you want is related to ubuntu support at all | 06:43 |
ki7mt_ | I'm under no impression whatsoever. | 06:43 |
Seven_Six_Two | mucus, with more memory, you could use firefox,amarok, and gimp at the same time. with 1gb you either don't multitask, or use abiword,audacious,and kpaint. | 06:43 |
Seven_Six_Two | mucus, yes. You can install full desktop on server, but it would take more tweaking to get it running just like a desktop. The packages are all there. | 06:44 |
mucus | alright so. . . | 06:44 |
mucus | call me nuts but. . . | 06:45 |
Ben64 | mucus: much easier to install the desktop version with a lighter front end | 06:45 |
mucus | pfff easy | 06:45 |
mucus | want light | 06:45 |
cryptodan | Xubuntu | 06:45 |
cryptodan | will give you xfce | 06:45 |
mucus | ubu server is lighter, yea? | 06:46 |
Ben64 | sure, but that doesn't matter if you're going to install a gui | 06:46 |
Seven_Six_Two | mucus, server isn't lighter, it's set up for server use. | 06:46 |
davidd | cryptodan:when I type startx via tty1, it says timeout locking .Xauthority | 06:47 |
Ben64 | don't use startx | 06:47 |
mucus | okay. . . | 06:47 |
davidd | Ben64: Do you know how should I solve my problem? I can login via tty1 to 6, but not | 06:47 |
davidd | 7 | 06:47 |
mucus | so i'm a real dunce here and stuff. . . | 06:47 |
mucus | but what's the "core" ubuntu? | 06:48 |
Ben64 | davidd: i don't know the backstory | 06:48 |
davidd | Ben64: it just blink and ask for the password again and again | 06:48 |
Ben64 | mucus: not sure what you mean | 06:48 |
mucus | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core | 06:48 |
mucus | found it | 06:48 |
Ben64 | davidd: try logging in as guest | 06:48 |
ozzloy | Ben64, it's ubuntu related in that ubuntu has the behavior i want and other ssh setups, for example cygwin, do not | 06:48 |
Ben64 | mucus: probably not what you want | 06:48 |
Ben64 | ozzloy: but this channel is for ubuntu support | 06:49 |
mucus | mmm | 06:49 |
mucus | yeah. . . looking at this. . . | 06:49 |
davidd | Ben64: I can login via tty1 to 6, but not tty7. in tty7 it just blink and asks again for my password. Do you know what should I do? | 06:51 |
Ben64 | davidd: try logging in as guest | 06:51 |
ozzloy | Ben64, i'm looking to find out how ubuntu does this | 06:51 |
ozzloy | so it seems like an appropriate place | 06:51 |
Ben64 | ozzloy: right, not on topic here | 06:51 |
ozzloy | how is that not on topic? i'm asking how ubuntu does something. | 06:52 |
Ben64 | ozzloy: your problem is with cygwin, not with ubuntu, therefore not on topic in #ubuntu | 06:52 |
davidd | Ben64: I Don't have any other account | 06:52 |
Ben64 | davidd: there should be a guest account you could use, if not, you can create a new account to try by doing "sudo adduser blah" in one of the TTYs | 06:52 |
ozzloy | ki7mt_, i see that openssh-client provides ssh-agent, sorry about that. thanks for pointing that out Ben64 | 06:53 |
jamie_ | okay... sorry about earlier bubbasaures i figure out the problem with the connection | 06:55 |
davidd | Ben64:It loged in with the new user via tty7, but with my user it does not! | 06:56 |

rawks | hello | 08:10 |
ganta_ | Hey guys, I'm having a login problem on Xubuntu. Can anyone help me out? | 08:19 |
cfhowlett | !details | ganta_ | 08:19 |
ubottu | ganta_: 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) | 08:19 |
ganta_ | no problem, give me a second guys. I was just checking to see if anyone was available first before I posted. | 08:21 |
cfhowlett | ganta_, don't do that. just ask your questions | 08:21 |
ganta_ | Like a day ago, I installed metasploit and everything was working fine. Today, Firefox crashed on me and I ended up having to raise the elephants to reboot the pc. When I tried logging back in, I was stuck at an infinite login loop on the GUI. I could, however, login to TTY. I followed a guide I found online and managed to get it to boot (there was an error with my profiles file). So after I restored the files to my home directory and | 08:25 |
ganta_ | and now I get stuck at the desktop wallpaper. I have control of the mouse pointer but nothing else loads. no bars, no icons, nothing. | 08:25 |
davidd | Ben64:Do you know how long it takes time? it is still searching, and I have changed all the ownership until now, but still I can not login! | 08:25 |
davidd | Ben64: something to note is that, my ubuntu is encrypted. | 08:26 |
ganta_ | Also, it may be worth it to note that if I log in to TTY, it also hangs after a successful login at the message about where I can find the full Xubuntu documentation. I can press Ctrl+C to break this and use it like normal, but if I don't and let it sit there for about a minute, it will kick me back out and I have to login again. | 08:30 |

rao | give me link ?? | 08:40 |
ganta_ | @cfhowlet the link you just gave is the exact one I followed and got me into this situation lol. I just followed that guide to install metasploit and everything ran fine until today. | 08:40 |
cfhowlett | ganta_, well that's not good ... :( Someone suggested using Kali | 08:41 |
rao | i hate kali linux | 08:42 |
ganta_ | yea, but I really need help with this. Now I have to try and backup all my files from the command line since I can't login. I don't really feel like having to fresh install xubuntu. It's alread 2:43 AM | 08:43 |
Ben64 | well metasploit isn't in ubuntu, so if you need it, you gotta do something | 08:43 |
davidd | Ben64:I changed everything except .gvfs, but still I can not log in. Do you know what should I do? | 08:44 |
Ben64 | why except | 08:44 |
davidd | Ben64: I was thinking to change the home directory of the guest account to my current, and delete the current account and rename guest to the current account. | 08:45 |
davidd | Ben64:it says you do not have permission | 08:45 |
davidd | Ben64:my ubuntu is encrypted, does that make difference? | 08:45 |
Ben64 | davidd: perhaps | 08:45 |
davidd | Ben64:Does my idea about changing user's home work? | 08:46 |
davidd | Ben64:because I can login with the new user account | 08:46 |
Ben64 | davidd: sounds silly | 08:46 |
davidd | Ben64:there is no way :( | 08:46 |
Ben64 | you could rename .config to .config_bak to see if that allows you to login, and/or rename other stuff | 08:47 |
davidd | ok, let me do that. | 08:47 |
ganta_ | is davidd having the same problem as me? | 08:47 |
Ben64 | possible | 08:48 |
Ben64 | ganta_: ls -l ~/.Xauthority | 08:48 |
davidd | Ben64:still no | 08:49 |

Ben64 | davidd: don't use sudo unless necessary, don't use sudo for graphical applications, use gksu for graphical applications, really pay attention to what you do with sudo | 08:53 |
ganta_ | What did I do wrng there Ben64? @Eric^^ My computer crashed and when I rebooted, I was stuck in an infinite login loop. I followed these guides http://bit.ly/15dxGRZ http://bit.ly/1ugaPuQ http://bit.ly/1B4dm09 and now I get stuck at my wallpaper | 08:55 |

In the menu you get, choose "Advanced options for Ubuntu" and choose an older kernel, like "3.13.0-43-generic" in case of an 14.04 installation. That 'pax' thing you get is a kernel thing. | 11:03 |

jonascj | Hi all. I am on ubuntu 12.10, how can I get glibc 2.17? | 12:00 |
cfhowlett | jonascj, 12.10 is dead and no longer supported. upgrade | 12:01 |
OerHeks | 14.04 will have glibc 2.19 http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=glibc | 12:02 |
xchatter | What could be the reason that in the terminal window the keyboard mapping is correct but in the KDE login window y and z are reversed. I am using a non American keyboard layout. The on the other hand when I lock the screen and enter my password then I have the correct key mapping. Only the KDE login window is messed up. Any idea? | 12:03 |
redrum | grub ubuntu 14.04 a shit | 12:03 |
jonascj | cfhowlett: I know that - still my problem is getting a piece of software requiring glibc 2.17 running on 12.10. Upgrading is not an option right now. | 12:03 |
xchatter | I am using Kubuntu 14.10 | 12:03 |
jonascj | So I came here for a hint - not demanding support :) | 12:03 |
OerHeks | jonascj, there is no 2.17 in the repos, so stick with 2.15 or upgrade and you will have 2.19 | 12:05 |
zacwalls | what is the command to connect to someones system via ssh? | 12:05 |
jonascj | OerHeks: it is just a library, isn't it? Could I obtain it somehow else? | 12:06 |
OerHeks | jonascj, glibc was available for Raring (13.04) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/amd64/libc6/2.17-0ubuntu4 but that version is unsupported too. | 12:07 |
OerHeks | jonascj, you might want to build it yourself, but dependencies can break your goal | 12:07 |

k1l | freeroute: see the changelog, its linked on packages.ubuntu.com | 12:51 |
freeroute | k1l: oh sorry I meant locally on my system. | 12:51 |
k1l | GBGames: xorg.conf is not used anymore. see the nvidia-settings gui | 12:52 |
k1l | freeroute: you can look at the apt logs in /var/log/apt | 12:52 |
GBGames | k1l: I'm there, but it's not clear to me how to configure metamodes correctly so that fullscreen games don't take up both monitors at once. | 12:52 |
GBGames | So I thought I would need to modify the configuration manually, and I can't find it. | 12:53 |
cmdgy | OerHeks: I found my mirror page on launchpad.net, it menthond that This mirror of Ubuntu will not be verified because its status is 'Pending review'. | 12:55 |
freeroute | k1l: not sure if I'm doing this correctly but is this command a valid one? grep -ri '*chromium*' /var/log/aptitude* | 12:56 |
freeroute | (I'm using aptitude as my package manager wrapper) | 12:56 |
OerHeks | cmdgy, nothing we can do about it but wait i guess | 12:57 |
k1l | freeroute: i dont know about how and what logs aptitude produces. but i think there is only apt.log and history.log in that folder | 12:57 |
cmdgy | Got, thanks | 12:57 |
freeroute | k1l: I manually had to go through the zipped aptitude.1.gz aptitude.2.gz etc. with the 'less' command and found the package name (chromium), however when I grep it like that it doesn't find anything. I think can't really into grep. | 12:58 |

patwotrik | Sorry for repeating myself. The sound has started acting weird. The system sounds work, but not in a web browser and in Spotify. And when I use Youtube the video runs very fast. (without sound) I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 | 13:35 |
jatt | patwotrik: are you using pulseaudio? | 13:37 |
patwotrik | jatt, I have installed Ubuntu and I have not enabled or disabled pulse | 13:38 |
patwotrik | jatt, So I guess it's a yes | 13:38 |
k1l | so you got all codecs? | 13:38 |
jatt | patwotrik: can you try to disable and see if everything works fine without pulseaudio? | 13:38 |
k1l | !codecs | patwotrik | 13:38 |
ubottu | patwotrik: 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 | 13:38 |
k1l | dont mess with pulseaudio. first see if the codecs are right | 13:39 |
jatt | not messing, disable it completely | 13:39 |
patwotrik | jatt, I saw a page that recommended running pulseaudio -k which did not work, but it did after reboot. After another reboot it stopped working again. | 13:39 |
patwotrik | jatt, Sorry for noob question, but how do i disable it completely? | 13:40 |
jatt | patwotrik: create a /etc/init/pulseaudio.override file with the following contents: | 13:41 |
jatt | manual | 13:41 |
jatt | reboot | 13:41 |
jatt | I mean the file should contain only one line containing manual | 13:41 |
jatt | then reboot the machine | 13:41 |
k1l | patwotrik: did you take a look into the soundsettings if something is muted there? | 13:41 |
patwotrik | ah, ok | 13:41 |
patwotrik | i'll try that | 13:41 |

ddavidd | Church: I want to remove the other user later, so it would be the only user | 16:44 |

Church | which users belong to which groups is determined by: 1) user's primary group, one of entries in /etc/passwd 2) additional groups user belongs to, which is set in /etc/group | 16:46 |
Church | i guess you use some default ubuntu security model | 16:46 |
orbisvicis | I just upgraded ubuntu to kernel 3.16 + grub, however I can no longer boot, after bios inits there is no grub menu, just blinking cursor | 16:46 |
orbisvicis | I reinstalled grub via chroot (Fedora), but no difference | 16:47 |
orbisvicis | I'm at a loss, I can no longer boot | 16:47 |
ddavidd | Church: My problem is I can not login with my first user via tty7 (but I can via tty1 to 6) I created another user and I can login with that through tty7. So now I want to exchange them with each other in a proper way | 16:47 |
firebird1 | whats difference between /usr/bin and bin both are identical | 16:48 |
Church | ddavidd: then switch to whatever priviledged user you can (so that you can edit /etc/group), and add needed user to admin group there | 16:48 |
Church | if you know that user's password, then you should be able to 'su' to them in console or terminal app | 16:48 |
Church | open some terminal, type 'su thatusername' | 16:49 |
ddavidd | Church: Yes, I know all passwords. | 16:49 |
firebird1 | $ diff --brief -r /usr/bin /bin/ | 16:49 |
firebird1 | i dont see any difference | 16:49 |
Church | you can check your current user id with command 'id' | 16:49 |
gonyere | on a friends ubuntu 14.04 system when you login to the user nothing comes up - just a blank bqckgorund screen, but if you login as guest everything works... | 16:50 |
Church | when you changed to that other user, that has sudo permissions, then type nano /etc/group and edit group admin with adding your user to it (if there are other users, then you can separate them with comma) | 16:50 |
Church | firebird1: check ls -ld /usr/bin /bin if those aren't symlinks pointing to same dir | 16:51 |
ddavidd | Church: The user with more privileges revealed this with id: uid=1000(mojtaba) gid=1000(mojtaba) groups=1000(mojtaba),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),124(sambashare) | 16:51 |
=== Maddy is now known as Guest16053 | ||
Church | ddavidd: then when you changed to this user, type while being him 'sudo nano /etc/group' | 16:52 |
ddavidd | Church: but the new one just has uid=1001(test) gid=1001(test) groups=1001(test) | 16:52 |
Church | and then add this test user to groups which also mojtaba belongs to | 16:53 |
Guest16053 | wiki | 16:53 |
Church | ddavidd: just remember, that for those group changes to take place you need to relogin | 16:54 |
momomo | If I have two disks with 3TB each. How can I partition one disk to the root and a folder, say momomo to the other disk but both / ... when I am partitioning now, I can't really say what disk should have what gigabyte. | 16:54 |
ddavidd | Church: So where ever I have mojtaba, I should add test? | 16:54 |
Church | ddavidd: or at very least to admin group, so you can use sudo from test user | 16:54 |
momomo | * but both under / | 16:55 |
ddavidd | Church: Is this the only thing that I should use? | 16:55 |
ddavidd | Church: What about the /etc/passwd? Should I edit that too? | 16:56 |
Church | ddavidd: in passwd probably only primary user group is set, 'test' and 'mojtaba' for these users. not much need. most probably those are autocreated groups only those users belong to | 16:57 |
Church | momomo: try to rephrase. a bit hard to understand what you want | 16:57 |
Church | momomo: i somewhat guess that you want to add one 3tb diskspace to / filesystem, and another one mounted on /momomo as separate filesystem? | 16:58 |
Church | momomo: you are doing initial install or trying to extend existing filesystems? have you used lvm? | 16:59 |
momomo | Church, no. I haven't used lvm .. I am trying to setup the partion on a server .. it has two disks .. i can specify what / should have, for isntance 2TB. But the other disk I would like to use for another ... but I am not sure I can specify what disk can get what. Currently the disk specification are DRIVE1: /dev/sda, DRIVE2: /dev/sdb | 17:03 |
locamsb | how come linux has bad mouse support? my mouse cursor jumps and sputters around and jumps from screen to screen | 17:03 |
ddavidd | Church: Stil same output for id (for test user) | 17:04 |
HamRadio | Anybody know when Unity 7.2.4 will hit the repos? | 17:04 |
Church | ddavidd: have you relogin after /etc/group edit? | 17:04 |
Church | momomo: in general i would advise learning lvm, as it provides great flexibility and other features for disk space allocation, especially if it's for server. | 17:04 |
ddavidd | I logged out from test user, and then re-logged in | 17:05 |
ddavidd | Church: Should I restart? | 17:05 |
momomo | Church, I was able to get a copy of the configuration file, one moment: | 17:05 |
Church | ddavidd: what does 'grep admin /etc/group' says? | 17:05 |
Banano | question... I did some updates, got an error msg, rebooted and now my resolution is stuck to 640x480 and mouse stopped working | 17:06 |
Banano | any ideas on how to fix this? :) | 17:06 |
ddavidd | Church: admin:x:1003: | 17:07 |
Evil_Eric | openvpn is throwing a segfault i need help fixing it | 17:08 |
momomo | Church, here is the first: | 17:08 |
momomo | http://postimg.org/image/ytiy93ubx/ | 17:08 |
Church | ddavidd: wierd. and if you change admin to adm in that grep command? | 17:08 |
ddavidd | Church: I have another user like admin. | 17:09 |
ddavidd | I mean its name is admin | 17:09 |
ddavidd | Church: adm:x:4:syslog,mojtaba,test,zzz,admin | 17:10 |
momomo | http://postimg.org/image/yy6g2kwgl/ | 17:10 |
Church | hmm, then maybe sudo looks on to adm group instead of admin | 17:10 |
Church | ddavidd: su mojtaba and then: sudo cat /etc/sudoers from that output see which group is allowed to use sudo | 17:11 |
Church | momomo: is it running server you wish to extend or it's initial install you can redo however you wish? | 17:12 |
jhutchins | Church: The newgrp - command can be used to apply newly joined groups to a current session. | 17:12 |
momomo | an initial install. yes, i can do it several times. | 17:13 |
ddavidd | Church: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777449/ | 17:14 |
momomo | Church, perhaps I need to PART /dev/sda/ ext3 3T ... and then mount /dev/sda/ to root somehow | 17:14 |
momomo | but I can't see any options for mounting what | 17:14 |
Church | momomo: then if it's for server usage, be it me, i'd put those two disks in software raid mirror for redundancy and use LVM on top of it for diskspace allocation :) | 17:14 |
hhhhhhhh | how do i see why my services are failing to start | 17:15 |
hhhhhhhh | initctl is helpfully only telling me that they did not start | 17:15 |
Church | momomo: but if you don't need redundancy that much but need all the diskspace, then simplest would be: / on sda, and new extra filesystem /momomo on sdb | 17:16 |
momomo | but I can't see any options for mounting what | 17:16 |
momomo | sorry, typo | 17:16 |
Seveas | hhhhhhhh: check the log for the specific service | 17:16 |
Church | momomo: i beleave you first have to create partition/filesistem, before you can mount it | 17:16 |
jhutchins | hhhhhhhh: What services? | 17:16 |
mmm1234 | Heeelp. Why Passwd can't change password, even after "mount.." ? | 17:17 |
Banano | fixed my problem | 17:17 |
Church | momomo: shouldn't installer provide disk partitioning / filesystem creation options? | 17:17 |
Seveas | mmm1234: pastebin the commands you used and its output | 17:17 |
momomo | Church, i have two disks, one on /dev/sdaa and one on dev/sdab ... how can I say / on sda ... right now I can only say / ext3 2GB | 17:17 |
momomo | not the disk | 17:17 |
Church | momomo: but where / actually is now? | 17:17 |
ddavidd | Church: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777449/ | 17:17 |
lasdam | how do I change resolv.conf? it says I shouldn't edit it manually | 17:17 |
Church | momomo: or you simply booted from some live cd or usb? | 17:18 |
bubbasaures | mmm1234, YOU have to chroot in or get to a command line with it running to do a password change. | 17:18 |
=== Jean-Charles is now known as Guest87673 | ||
momomo | I think it will just install fresh one .. like you have a cd | 17:18 |
Church | momomo: then add test user also to 'sudo' group in /etc/group .. and relogin | 17:18 |
Seveas | lasdam: set nameservers in the networkmanager applet or make your dhcp server give you the right ones. | 17:18 |
lasdam | Seveas: so resolv.conf is overwritten because I use the networkmanager applet? | 17:19 |
hhhhhhhh | jhutchins: trying to make a teamspeak initscrip | 17:19 |
jhutchins | lasdam: resolv.conf is overwritten because the system is using dhcp. | 17:19 |
hhhhhhhh | Seveas: it isn't making one | 17:19 |
werMODStyle | Hello | 17:20 |
jhutchins | hhhhhhhh: Try starting the daemon directly. Look in /usr/share/doc/teamspeak* for README files. | 17:20 |
werMODStyle | Hello | 17:20 |
utsav | Hey guys my fan makes a lot of noise.I am using ubuntu 14.04.Any solutions? | 17:20 |
hhhhhhhh | jhutchins: i can start it directly and i can start it when i don't use chroot | 17:20 |
werMODStyle | Just so this | 17:20 |
Seveas | lasdam: sort of | 17:20 |
werMODStyle | Fuck her right in the pussy | 17:20 |
hhhhhhhh | but when i try to put it in a chroot it fails and gives me 0 indication wh | 17:20 |
adriano_ | cortou e aparou | 17:20 |
hhhhhhhh | y | 17:20 |
jhutchins | hhhhhhhh: Many daemons install with the startup script use a config file in /etc/sysconfig to enable them. | 17:21 |
mmm1234 | See: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777486/ | 17:21 |

hhhhhhhh | also i didn't install it from repos because it isn't in the repos | 17:21 |
werMODStyle | I dont know the SU password for Backbox | 17:21 |
ddavidd | Church: Did you see this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777449/ | 17:21 |
jhutchins | hhhhhhhh: No idea what your chroot environment is, but it's probably missing some required componentes in the chroot tree. | 17:21 |
werMODStyle | Hey can someone help me? | 17:21 |
Seveas | werMODStyle: no. | 17:21 |
lasdam | Seveas: and how do I configure my dhcp server then? I checked webmin, and it says it couldn't find "dhcpd". all I want is to change my dns settings globally | 17:21 |
momomo | Church, the options for an lvm row .. either ext3, reiserfs or xfs .. swap I alreayd know .. but when should I choose ext3 for an lvm and reiserfs or xfs? | 17:21 |
werMODStyle | When I type su in the terminal idk the password | 17:21 |
Seveas | hhhhhhhh: then I'm afraid it's not supported here, ask the teamspeak developers. | 17:22 |
momomo | See here: http://postimg.org/image/yy6g2kwgl/ | 17:22 |
werMODStyle | What should I do | 17:22 |
Qbuo | Hi, anybody here up for helping some newbies like me? | 17:22 |
jhutchins | lasdam: 1) webmin very bad. 2) you're running a dhcp client, not a server. | 17:22 |
Seveas | mmm1234: and what made you think this is somehow mount related? | 17:22 |
hhhhhhhh | Seveas: i'm not specifically asking why ts isnt working | 17:22 |
hhhhhhhh | i'm asking why upstart doesn't give me a single bit of information on why it can't start it :) | 17:23 |
lasdam | jhutchins: 1. why. 2. aha. what's the name of the client software? | 17:23 |
Seveas | hhhhhhhh: becaue it logs all that | 17:23 |
utsav | Jhutchins:I need some help!Please , Give me some resource which can help me fix it! | 17:23 |
hhhhhhhh | Seveas: it isn't | 17:23 |
Qbuo | Im trying to run steam on 14.04, but it gives me the following two warnings: “You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6” The common fixes don't work, and You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: | 17:23 |
Qbuo | libGL.so.1 | 17:23 |
hhhhhhhh | i get "initctl: Job failed to start" and no /var/log/upstart/ts3.log | 17:23 |
mmm1234 | mount is the only related 'hint' I see from searching the latest post on net. Better ides? Or how can I find what is the reason behind the error? | 17:23 |
Qbuo | whats the best way i can install the two missing files | 17:24 |
Church | momomo: for lvm: disk itself: sda1 /boot 500M ext3, sda2 all the rest in one volume group. upon that volume group 2G lvswap for swap and 10G lvroot for /. all the rest lvm configuration can be easily done later on online without reboots | 17:24 |
jhutchins | lasdam: Webmin will eventually break your system, and you may not be able to recover using the standard command line tools. | 17:24 |
ddavidd | Church: I cat /etc/sudoer | 17:24 |
ddavidd | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777449/ | 17:24 |
Seveas | mmm1234: pastebin the output of mount and let's see :) | 17:24 |

hhhhhhhh | i'm actually having trouble getting anything to work in a chroot at all | 17:25 |
lasdam | jhutchins: why will it? is it not compatible with Ubuntu? | 17:25 |

momomo | Church, ook. I will try to set up a config .. I will send you a proposal to look at to see if I should change something. Thanks for your help! | 17:25 |
diddledan | hhhhhhhh: you're probably missing dependant shared libraries | 17:26 |
jhutchins | lasdam: It does not use standard configuration files to store configuration, is badly written, and has a strong tendency to crash and ruin your system. | 17:26 |
cuddylier | Anyone know what the process at the top of this 'iotop' output is? http://prntscr.com/5u1e8v | 17:26 |
Seveas | hhhhhhhh: 'running things in a chroot' and 'using chroot on dir' are two different things... | 17:26 |
jhutchins | !webmin | 17:26 |
ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 17:26 |
ddavidd | Church: are you there? | 17:26 |
Seveas | cuddylier: a normal kernel thread | 17:26 |
Church | momomo: such as lvextend -L +#G /dev/thatvolumegroup/lvroot /etc/and resize2fs /dev/thatvolumegroup/lvroot to grow this filesystem, or pvcreate /dev/sdb ; vgextend yourvolumegroup /dev/sdb ; lvcreate -n otherlogicalvolumename -L # G yourvolumegroup /dev/sdb ; mkfs.ext3 -m 0 /dev/yourvolumegroup/otherlogicalvolumename | 17:27 |
cuddylier | Seveas: Do you know why it may be showing as using 37% I/O then? | 17:27 |
cuddylier | Or is that just a consequence of something else using I/O? | 17:27 |
Seveas | cuddylier: it's the ext4 journaling thread, it'll do a lot of i/o if something else is | 17:27 |
cuddylier | Only other thing I can see is rsync there | 17:27 |
Seveas | that tends to do a lot of i/o :) | 17:28 |
mmm1234 | "mount" gives no error, run on sudo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777567/ | 17:28 |
Church | ddavidd: i already told you. your test user should be able to use sudo once you added test user in /etc/group file for admin and sudo groups. | 17:28 |
Church | (+relogin) | 17:28 |
Seveas | mmm1234: that's not the command I asked you to run | 17:28 |
lasdam | jhutchins: I don't immediately spot results that confirms your claim even when I google "webmin bad". can you source me up? | 17:29 |
Seveas | lasdam: try webmin horrible or webmin terrible. 'bad' doesn't even begin to describe it accurately :) | 17:29 |
lasdam | Seveas: still nothing | 17:30 |
mmm1234 | Seveas: Please explain, which command needs to be run. By pastebin you mean this "paste.ubuntu.com"? | 17:31 |
zergut | god day | 17:31 |
zergut | good day | 17:31 |
Seveas | mmm1234: just the command 'mount'. | 17:31 |
zergut | how to update DNS-cache in ubuntu? | 17:31 |
zergut | or erase | 17:32 |
Church | momomo: i also suggest to not allocate all the diskspace since beginning. as if you use lvm, you can always do that later on online without reboots, but reducing filesystem requires offline work. so better to add space on need to basis later | 17:32 |
Seveas | zergut: pkill -HUP dnsmasq | 17:33 |
mmm1234 | "mount" -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777626/ | 17:33 |
lasdam | Seveas and jhutchins: "webmin crash" yields a few results, but they're all about webmin itself crashing, not the system, and I'm pretty sure you can google any popular software + "crash" and get such results of the software crashing | 17:34 |
Seveas | mmm1234: that says / is read-write already. Did you much about with the pam config perhaps? | 17:34 |
zergut | Seveas: thank you | 17:35 |

Qbuo | cups depends on libc-bin (>= 2.13). | 17:39 |
Qbuo | what do i do to get it back to normal! | 17:40 |
Seveas | mmm1234: check /var/log/auth.log or /var/log/syslog for hints then. That error is a generic error from pam saying 'something failed' | 17:40 |

horrow | ? | 17:40 |
Seveas | Qbuo: if you've *really* deleted libc-bin, you system may be utterly hosed. In a termina, try apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 17:40 |
Qbuo | i dunno what i did exactly man | 17:40 |
Seveas | horrow: wine is your best shot. If it fails: use windows. | 17:40 |
Seveas | Qbuo: try that command I gave you. Its output should be an indication of how hosed everything is. | 17:41 |
Church | ddavidd: home directories for users are set within /etc/passwd file. but you shouldn't just change it for test user to point to /home/mojave .. as apart from directory where contents are, permissions also matter | 17:41 |
Qbuo | i ran this command "sudo apt-get install libc-bin:i386" | 17:41 |
horrow | Seveas i used to use windows but when I tested my entire hardware for bugs i found that the windows cause the problem so i really dont want to use it | 17:41 |
Qbuo | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 17:42 |
Qbuo | cups : Depends: libc-bin (>= 2.13) | 17:42 |
Qbuo | E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). | 17:42 |
Seveas | Qbuo: is that when doing apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? | 17:42 |
Qbuo | yeah | 17:42 |
Seveas | might not be too hosed then. Do as it suggests: sudo apt-get -f install | 17:42 |
Church | ddavidd: i'd rather suggest to coppy what's needed from old home to new one, and change permissions recursively for copied stuff to new user. and only when you see that there is nothing needed in old place, delete it | 17:42 |
Qbuo | it also says this "ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version. | 17:43 |

mcgrete | Hello: I am seeking to resolve an apparent grub issue. I have 3 HDD, one of which is removable (sdc). Originally, I used 12.04LTS primarily (installed on sdb) with sda having Windows OS, and sdc having Ubuntu14.04LTS. Grub had no problem booting to any and each of them. Desired to move 14.04LTS HDD to sda, Windows HDD to sdb and 12.04LTS to sdc. 14.04LTS and Windows load fine; 12.04LTS does not. Grub mods failed; works if retu | 17:53 |

hr9999 | Hello everyone. I am having a couple problems. I use Xubuntu 14.10. Sometimes, when I try to suspend, the computer simply behaves as if I had locked the screen; upon logging back in (sometimes after forcefully rebooting as it doesn't always work from the command line and the gui buttons become useless) I am greeted by <http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777838/>. The problem with this is that it is not reproducible besides using my | 18:09 |
hr9999 | computer for sufficiently long and suspending it enough times. | 18:09 |
RedheadedCupcake | bubbasaures I don't know. In the about section of WinUSB it's version 1.0.11 but I am on an Ubuntu laptop | 18:09 |
bubbasaures | RedheadedCupcake, the forked winusb is not in the repos for any supported ubuntu is all, so need to know your path to this. | 18:10 |
hr9999 | Secondly, all my TTYs are unusable; they report errors concerning forcewake (which was supposedly fixed awhile ago) and sdc: <http://paste.ubuntu.com/9777837/> | 18:10 |
Qbuo | Seveas: any chance you know how to fix missing libcurl files? | 18:10 |
mcgrete | bubbasaures: I get a grub screen, showing various lines, each an option to boot according to how grub is setup. Works fine. If I physcially add 14.04LTS drive in sdc, and I boot from that drive instead of (not sure, sda/sdb), then works fine. Issue is when I swap drive locations physically so that 14.04LTS is not the removable drive, I can boot from 14.04LTS drive OK, even boot Windows from grub menu when booting from 14.04LTS dr | 18:10 |
RedheadedCupcake | bubbasaures can you tell me how I'd find that out? | 18:11 |
Seveas | Qbuo: depends on what's missing. What's the error you get? | 18:12 |
Qbuo | ill send you a pastebin in a sec | 18:12 |
mcgrete | bubbasaures: I can't boot to 12.04LTS from 14.04LTS drive, even after verifying grub has proper UUID and hd#,# | 18:12 |
bubbasaures | mcgrete, I can't follow that, again the added sdc is an external right? | 18:13 |
bubbasaures | mcgrete, sdc is all ntfs is that a wubi install? | 18:13 |
Qbuo | When trying to install steam, i first get the warning message "“You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6” i ignored it and clicked ok, then during launch it says "You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:libGL.so.1" I clicked ok again and whadda ya know, steam gives me a fatal err | 18:14 |
Qbuo | or. | 18:14 |
mcgrete | bubbasaures: I have a bay added to the box, uses SATA connection and power from motherboard, not a USB drive or through a card. The swapable disk is then noticed as sdc by system. | 18:14 |

bubbasaures | RedheadedCupcake, pop the usb in, open gparted, make sure you are looking at the usb, there is a drop down top right. Unmount it, and make a ntfs partition. I'm assuming there is nothing on the usb you need. | 18:33 |

bubbasaures | RedheadedCupcake, So all you have to do is close gparted, pull the usb and plug it in so mounted, open it. Than right click the windows iso and open with disc image mounter and extract it to the usb. Should be bootable for install now. | 18:40 |
jamie_ | hey I went to get on yesterday and get some help and was having some problems with my internet, sorry about that bubbasaures.... but i got most of my problems fixed... but now i am having when i get the second x server running the first one is still up but when i got to switch to the first one the second one crashes | 18:41 |

=== owner is now known as Guest12184 | ||
Kwry | mcgrete, it seems that you have 2 instances of grub in the hdds, you only need one. | 18:54 |
mcgrete | Kwry: OK, so remove one for sdc (12.04LTS OS on that drive), and leave one for sda (14.04LTS on that HDD). How to remove grub for sdc? | 18:56 |
Kwry | im not entirely sure but i think you need to mount the drive and purge grub, then you have to update the grub that you already have | 18:57 |

=== lbaway is now known as luckybunny | ||
mcgrete | Kwry: Thanks, I will look into that further. Relevant: I can boot into Windows, or even 10.04LTS in addition to 14.04LTS, but I CAN NOT boot into 12.04LTS. I feared that I damaged / corrupted a file. But, when I swapped back physically the drives to their original locations, I could then boot to 12.04LTS. If that changes your recommendation, please comment. Otherwise, I will backup info and give reinstall a try. Thanks. | 19:05 |
OerHeks | mcgrete, open terminal: sudo update-grub #should do the trick i think | 19:06 |
Kwry | mcgrete, i dont think it will be an issue, try it anyways | 19:08 |

Kwry | bubbasaures, yeah, it gets me the generic type without printing anything | 19:19 |
bubbasaures | Kwry, Not sure here really, sorry about that. | 19:19 |
bubbasaures | catcher2, not really anything we can answer in a support vein or any other really, that is your research. Ubuntu is stable as the user. | 19:21 |
Kwry | bubbasaures, ok, thanks | 19:21 |
OerHeks | catcher2, 2 external monitors on a laptop, never seen one with 2 external monitor ports. | 19:21 |

thedebz | ideas on what software to installed on my laptop linux server that is currently not being put to good use | 19:23 |

OerHeks | catcher2, sure, most laptops can switch between and run both | 19:24 |
Kwry | catcher2, you can have it that way, even extended | 19:24 |

OerHeks | zeeshan, that might be the issue, are you still on Lucid?? the desktop is EOL. | 19:44 |

hr9999 | resint: /home/* will back up the documents, pictures, music, videos, settings, etc. of all the users on your computer. However, it will also back up everything the recycle bin, so either exclude everyone's .local/Trash (unless you really want to back up trash) or just empty it. | 19:51 |

opla | Hey! Does anyone know an equivalent to "Archive Folders" from windows? I have an application that splits its text files in a folder and they are not compressed, so to improve size and decrease risks between transfer due to character limitations, folder nesting - I search for an equivalent. To my knowledge, mounting a file and then applying some compressing filesystem inside, still does not support a flexible size. | 20:05 |
bubbasaures | rwest202, Windows is hibernated, refused to mount | 20:07 |
rwest202 | bubbasaures: this is the one I just ran http://paste.ubuntu.com/9778725/ | 20:07 |

Shogoot_ | So i got this usb stick up and running in persistent mode. Im quite new to linux so bare with me. :) When start up the persistent i automaticaly get logged in as live user, i made a user and made him administrator, but i cant figure out how to make the distro to autologing this new user and not the default live session one. Anyone that can help me figure it out? | 20:08 |
jamie_ | StackedChips: did you find the program | 20:09 |
StackedChips | jamie_: thanks that should allow me to tweak specifics on my hardware for better results | 20:09 |

adunosine | bubbasaures: mouse pointer don't move and don't click | 20:27 |

bubbasaures | rwest202, All I can say as anything done correctly will work. | 20:34 |

Seveas | you're in unsupported territory :) | 20:44 |
apb1963 | same results | 20:45 |
apb1963 | I didn't specifically install that ppa... where did it come from? | 20:45 |
Seveas | yes you did. PPA's don't add themselves. | 20:45 |
apb1963 | Installed: 4:4.13.3-0ubuntu0.2 | 20:46 |
apb1963 | how is that a ppa? | 20:46 |
Seveas | you enabled the kubuntu-ppa ppa, otherwise it wouldn't show up. And that's what it's trying to install. | 20:47 |
Guest35944 | im new to linux was wondering if anyone could help with an issue or direct me somewhere i can find help...been 2 days cant figure it out:( | 20:47 |
Seveas | Guest35944: what's the issue? | 20:48 |
apb1963 | Seveas: you're right: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu trusty main | 20:48 |
bekks | Guest35944: Just ask :) | 20:48 |
apb1963 | Seveas: So, any reason I can't just turn it off? | 20:48 |
Seveas | apb1963: you probably already installed other things from it. Maybe look at ppa-purge :) | 20:49 |
Guest35944 | i just added gnome and kde as options to a base xubuntu i updated a display driver and now the screen gets colred lines and crashes | 20:49 |
apb1963 | Seveas: how can I find what I installed from it? | 20:49 |
Seveas | apb1963: apt-cache policy on all the packages and see which come from that repo | 20:49 |
bekks | Guest35944: How did you "add" that, and how did you "updated a display driver" - and which one? | 20:49 |
apb1963 | Seveas: that seems a bit brute force... dpkg -l will give me a list of packages yes? | 20:51 |
Guest35944 | apt-get kubuntu and apt-get gnpme added the different session manager forgot name gnm maybe | 20:51 |
Seveas | apb1963: but not which repo they came from | 20:52 |
bubbasaures | Guest35944, Neither of those would run | 20:52 |

xangua | edgy: that would be until the second point release https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 20:58 |
Seveas | trusty is on 3.13 and will stay there | 20:58 |
natusi | Seveas: Do echo $ and type tab, it will ask you if you want to print them all... Ok, now I want to copy the result in a txt file | 20:58 |
Bashing-om | edgy: The latest krnel for 14.04 standard is "3.13.0-44-generic" . | 20:59 |

bubbasaures | RedheadedCupcake, manuals are on the web, I would get it. | 20:59 |
natusi | ikonia: ok but my problem still unsolved | 20:59 |
Seveas | natusi: ok. that is sompletely different from $*, which expands to the arguments of the current shell | 20:59 |
edgy | k1l: no | 20:59 |
ikonia | natusi: your problem doesn't exist | 20:59 |
k1l | edgy: afaik that is a backports kernel for cloud based setups only. | 21:00 |
Seveas | natusi: you want 'set > vars.txt' | 21:00 |
k1l | edgy: the next 3.16 backport will come with 14.04.2 pointrelease | 21:00 |
k1l | edgy: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&keywords=linux-lts-utopic&searchon=names | 21:00 |
edgy | k1l: but it's already in my repo as verified by apt-cache! | 21:01 |
edgy | k1l: yes, I am using tghe cloud image | 21:01 |
natusi | Seveas: doesn't print what I want | 21:02 |
natusi | ikonia: it is for me because I can't get what I want | 21:02 |
Seveas | natusi: it's as close as you're gonna get | 21:02 |
edgy | k1l: I now tested another installation which is not a cloud image and still there is linux-image-3.16.0-29-generic in the repo but dist-upgrade won't install it, I now installed it manually and it works, so my question is why not with dist-upgrade?! | 21:04 |
k1l | edgy: because its not based on the linux-image meta package | 21:04 |
edgy | k1l: what does this mean please? | 21:04 |
EriC^^ | natusi: set | grep ^[A-Z].*= | 21:04 |

xangua | ...... | 21:05 |
EriC^^ | natusi: it wont grab any that start with numbers though, you can modify it if you want | 21:05 |
Seveas | EriC^^: that'll miss variable names starting with underscoreds :) | 21:05 |
k1l | edgy: again: in february 14.04.2 will be released and then there will be a 3.16 LTS backports kernel. | 21:05 |
k1l | edgy: the kernel you just run is just a kernel needed for some cloud images and is not part of the general linux-image backports tree | 21:06 |
SchrodingersScat | I didn't think variables could start with numbers | 21:06 |
k1l | edgy: could be a early preview package. | 21:07 |
Seveas | SchrodingersScat: they can't | 21:08 |
jeff__ | how would i go about creating a live (usb drive based) version of ubuntu (using a desktop other than cinnamon, mate, kde, xfce, etc.)? | 21:09 |
edgy | k1l: you mentioned that it's not part of linux-image meta package, but when I check this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=linux-image&searchon=names&suite=trusty§ion=all it's already provides linux-image | 21:10 |
edgy | xangua: I checked the link but here I didn't install utopic in trusty | 21:10 |
edgy | xangua: it's already in trusty | 21:10 |
edgy | http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-image-3.16.0-29-generic | 21:11 |

k1l | edgy: if you want it: install it manually like you already did on that other machine. when 14.04.2 is released and it doesnt work with the enablement stack come back or better file a bug | 21:12 |
L1ntux | no | 21:12 |
edgy | k1l: when you said it's pre-release does this mean if I enabled the pre-release repo somehow it would be updated? | 21:13 |
k1l | inst123: if your hardware is 64 bit (which most times is in this days) you want to go with 64 bit | 21:13 |

ActionParsnip | colonelqubit: not used Empathy in ages | 21:49 |
ActionParsnip | colonelqubit: I believe Empathy is tied closely to the Gnome version you have so a newer version will need to upgrade your whole Gnome DE | 21:50 |
colonelqubit | oh, goody | 21:51 |
colonelqubit | IIRC, I tried to use Gnome3, and then stuff in Unity seemed to break in interesting ways | 21:51 |
colonelqubit | but that might have been related to my graphics drivers | 21:51 |

ActionParsnip | colonelqubit: Unity uses the Gnome DE. Unity is a shell so doesn't replace Gnome | 21:52 |

bazhang | the mini iso robotdevil | 22:04 |
bazhang | !mini | 22:04 |
ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 22:04 |
robotdevil | bazhang: would that easily help me to not install the nouveau driver? | 22:04 |
bazhang | Higgenbottoms, apt-cache search unity to check | 22:04 |
ActionParsnip | robotdevil: there is the mini iso. You could use that. I can only see alternate images for Precise | 22:04 |

robotdevil | eg. ./Nxxxxxx.run | 22:06 |
ActionParsnip | robotdevil: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 22:07 |

ActionParsnip | robotdevil: you can press CTRL + ALT + T to get a terminal | 22:07 |
robotdevil | yeah they dont work | 22:07 |
robotdevil | ActionParsnip: I even tried setting different vga=xxx options in grub | 22:08 |
robotdevil | I have tty7 and thats it | 22:08 |
ActionParsnip | robotdevil: drop to root recovery mode. Or press CTRL + ALT + F1 and stop lights then run the command. You will need to rerun it each time you update the kernel | 22:08 |

tomreyn | hi Salrathor1, what are you trying to achieve with this "wifi patch"? | 22:17 |
Salrathor1 | I downloaded bcmwl | 22:17 |
ActionParsnip | edilson: what is ficheiros? | 22:17 |
Salrathor1 | I installed ubuntu on my old macbook | 22:18 |
edilson | files | 22:18 |
Salrathor1 | the wifi doesn't work so I'm trying to install the patch | 22:18 |
edilson | chmod ??? files | 22:18 |
Salrathor1 | I downloaded the file bcmw1........tar.gz | 22:18 |
tomreyn | Salrathor1: do you know the exact product title of the macbook? it should say on the bottom in find print | 22:18 |
ActionParsnip | edilson: are they stored on an NTFS partition? | 22:19 |
Salrathor1 | it's osx 10.5.8 | 22:19 |
tomreyn | Salrathor1: do you have wired internet access on it, yet? if not, you'll save time by doing that | 22:19 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: tried the additional drivers application? | 22:19 |
k1l | edilson: can you state your actualy support issue in a clear language? we even have different channels for other native languages besides english, so if you tell us your native language we could name another channel | 22:19 |
tomreyn | Salrathor1: i was referring to the hardware there | 22:19 |
edilson | ok | 22:19 |
Salrathor1 | Yes I have wired internet | 22:19 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: did you get fully updated on the wired connection? | 22:20 |
Salrathor1 | Ok, basically I just installed ubuntu on my old macbook. The wifi doesn't work so I'm trying to install the correct patch. I've downloaded the correct file, but I don't know how to execute it. | 22:20 |
tomreyn | Salrathor1: try what ActionParsnip suggests. you should not try downloading drivers or patches form some websites unless its a (very) last resort | 22:20 |
Salrathor1 | Action, how do I check? | 22:21 |
Salrathor1 | It ran some updates when I connected I think. | 22:21 |

ActionParsnip | maestrojed: what is the purpose of the connection at all? | 22:35 |
Salrathor1 | Is there anything else I can try to update my network drivers? | 22:36 |
rd_ | somehow I need to just get a 2d driver with framebuffer | 22:36 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: what wifi chip do you have? sudo lshw -C network Will tell you | 22:37 |
maestrojed | ActionParsnip The point of the connection is to just let me get around the UI today while I don't have a mouse. What will I do? Lots of things. First thing I will get open ssh running so I don't need to use the desktop all the time. But then I will be installing software. Configuring a bunch of HDs etc. | 22:37 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: you could use synergy instead. When you move the mouse of the screen it will appear on the Ubuntu system. Super handy | 22:38 |
rd_ | ActionParsnip: it werid cause jockey says absolutely nothing | 22:38 |
maestrojed | ActionParsnip This is not the permanent solution. I just want the built in remove desktop share to work from an OSX client because its a pain to install stuff without a mouse. | 22:38 |

maestrojed | My Ubuntu12.04 box, I can access its remote desktop share server using VNC View, Chicken of the VNC and any other vnc client | 22:40 |
Salrathor1 | Action: This is what I was referring to when I downloaded the file and tried to install it. | 22:41 |
maestrojed | ActionParsnip oh? Sorry, Didn't realize that changed things. So what does that mean? How does that effect this? Thanks for the help! | 22:41 |
Salrathor1 | I don't know how to install the file though and that's why I decided to check here. | 22:41 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: I always ask because often there are sleeker solutions (torrent clients have Web UIs for example) | 22:41 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: it's just clearer which version of the OS you are using. | 22:42 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: lots of users automatically think they need the full desktop to achieve their means | 22:43 |
Salrathor1 | Action: I've downloaded a driver- how do I install it ? | 22:43 |
Salrathor1 | the file name is bcmwl_6.30.223.248+bdcom.orig.tar.gz | 22:43 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: you don't need to download anything manually. You didn't read the link Ubottu gave you.... | 22:44 |
Salrathor1 | hmm, let me check it again. | 22:44 |
Colossus | Hello | 22:45 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source | 22:45 |
ActionParsnip | Under the desktop menu System > Administration > Hardware/Additional Drivers, the STA drivers can be activated for use. | 22:45 |
ActionParsnip | Salrathor1: reboot to test. | 22:45 |
maestrojed | i know. This is just temporary. I understand when to use desktop and when not too. I can install other programs, Thats fine and what I will do. Seems like asking why vnc clients can't connect to the remote desktop server built into Ubuntu does seem like a reasonable question, on its own. imo. | 22:45 |
Colossus | What is the best cloud service you guys found for Ubuntu? | 22:46 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: I believe it needs enabling first on the desktop. It's not enabled by default | 22:46 |
ActionParsnip | Colossus: owncloud | 22:47 |
maestrojed | Yes, I have done that. | 22:47 |
maestrojed | I get encryption errors when trying to connect. I guess it uses a newer encryption protocol then most of the clients have. | 22:47 |
Colossus | ActionParsnip: thank you | 22:47 |
maestrojed | So, my original question was if anyone does connect to Ubuntu 14.04's Remote Desktop software and if so, what client do you use? Cause I am looking for one that supports this encryption protocol. The three I have installed on my OSX machine all give this encryption error | 22:49 |
ActionParsnip | maestrojed: let me search online. See if it's a known issue | 22:50 |
