| zacwalls | Im trying to partition my ubuntu on my pc and not delete win 7. A dual-boot to be terminologically correct. I am at the partitioning table art of the install and I have no idea what to do. | 00:12 |
| zacwalls | Do i use fat or do i use ntfs? | 00:14 |
| lachm | Well you can decrease the size of your windows partition and then use the empty space as your root partition for windows | 00:14 |
| lachm | For your Ubuntu partition? | 00:14 |
| lachm | *ubuntu | 00:15 |
| zacwalls | How? | 00:15 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: you cant install ubuntu on fat or ntfs. | 00:16 |
| k1l_ | !dualboot | zacwalls | 00:16 |
| ubottu | zacwalls: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 00:16 |
| lachm | Ext4 is the probably the best one to use | 00:17 |
| k1l_ | yes, ext4 is the ubuntu standard. | 00:17 |
| adam_ | I am still having issues with Steam, no one has been able to find a solution yet. I managed to find all the files and delete them and do a fresh install but still can't connect to login servers. I've checked firewalls and everything I can think of. Anyone have any ideas on how to find the problem? | 00:17 |

| zacwalls | and make the mount point /boot? | 00:18 |
| dannymichel | Ok, so I have been comparing NTFS applications to write to my NTFS external on OS X, but have been hearing bad things about data loss and corrupt drives. I considered installing a Ubuntu virtual machine and sharing that drive on it to write it, but wouldn't that kind of be the same thing? Using OS X's drivers? | 00:18 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: you dont need a seperate /boot in most cases | 00:19 |
| zacwalls | Is 50mb good to partition? | 00:19 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: 50mb is way to small for everything | 00:19 |
| amicrawler2012 | how do i tell what my cpu is | 00:20 |
| amicrawler2012 | form the command line | 00:20 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: "lshw" | 00:20 |

| zacwalls | I have /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 and win 7 loader is formatted with ntfs. the win 7 loader is on /dev/sda1 and has used 25mb. There is a total of 104.9mb on sda1. What do i do from here? | 00:24 |
| satdav | k1l_: is that's a old package | 00:24 |
| amicrawler2012 | can any body help me ? | 00:24 |
| k1l_ | satdav: its not in the ubuntu repos. you will need a 3rd party package to install | 00:25 |
| satdav | Cool | 00:25 |
| zacwalls | Oh and sda1 is also ntfs | 00:25 |
| satdav | !find openvpn | 00:26 |

| k1l_ | zacwalls: resize the sda2 (the windows partition). then make new partitions for ubuntu, install ubuntu there, insatll grub. done | 00:27 |
| zacwalls | How do in install grub.. NVM 1 step at a time right. | 00:27 |
| zacwalls | resize to 50mb? | 00:27 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: please see the page the bot linked to you some minutes ago | 00:28 |

| zacwalls | on win 7 loader | 00:28 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: dont touch that. | 00:28 |
| zacwalls | I did not understand the material. | 00:28 |
| zacwalls | Okay it is at 105mb | 00:28 |
| satdav | !znc | 00:28 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: stop. | 00:28 |
| zacwalls | as usual | 00:28 |
| satdav | !openvpn | 00:28 |
| ubottu | OpenVPN is a vpn technology in Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openvpn and then see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" noting you have already installed it. ;-) It rocks! | 00:28 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: you gat a "small partition" sda1 labled "win7 loader" and a second sda2 with the actual windows system, right? | 00:29 |
| zacwalls | sda1 is the loader | 00:29 |
| squinty | satdav: do that in another channel you can type the following /msg ubottu !<subject> that open another channel where you can type other searchs too without spamming this channel | 00:30 |
| bbryant | hey, so i'm having some trouble with my clock. I go to the settings and all of the options are greyed out with no way for me to sudo up, so to speak | 00:30 |
| bbryant | what's the name of the settings application for time and date | 00:30 |
| zacwalls | Do i do a new partition table | 00:30 |
| bbryant | so I can just run sudo from the terminal? | 00:30 |
| amicrawler2012 | will a AMD Athlon(tm) XP 3200+ | 00:31 |
| amicrawler2012 | can any body help me ? | 00:31 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: so resize sda2 to make room for ubuntu. the boot-loader from ubuntu (grub) will recognize the windows-loader and will present a menue on start where you can choose between ubuntu and windows | 00:31 |
| amicrawler2012 | im trying to see if my system will go hier then 10 | 00:31 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: no | 00:31 |
| zacwalls | Okay | 00:31 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: i fear you are going to delete your datas | 00:31 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: your questions are not making any sense. please included complete information on what you are trying to acheive | 00:31 |
| zacwalls | So resize to what? | 00:31 |
| amicrawler2012 | yes i have a AMD Athlon(tm) XP 3200+ | 00:32 |
| amicrawler2012 | with 512 ram | 00:32 |
| amicrawler2012 | and the os is 10.10 | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: 10.10 is outdated. dont install that anymore | 00:32 |
| amicrawler2012 | i want to upgrade to ubunut 12 | 00:32 |
| squinty | !eol | amicrawler2012 | 00:32 |
| ubottu | amicrawler2012: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: depends on how much GB the disk is | 00:33 |
| amicrawler2012 | im not sure what i can up grade to on this computet | 00:33 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: you need to upgrade to 12.04. | 00:33 |
| zacwalls | about 1 | 00:33 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: but since you waited way too long you need to upgrade to 11.04 then 11.10 then 12.04. | 00:33 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: that 512 meg ram is the lowest limit, afaik, for lubuntu | 00:33 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: 1 what? | 00:33 |
| amicrawler2012 | for the cpu and ram can i upgrade | 00:33 |
| zacwalls | 1gb | 00:33 |
| zacwalls | 104.9mb | 00:34 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: sorry, you are making no sense at all | 00:34 |
| zacwalls | You said it depends on the gb on the disk | 00:34 |
| squinty | zacwalls: might want to have a look at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/display-doc.php?name=help-manual along with the other material that k1l suggest you read | 00:34 |
| zacwalls | I did not understand it | 00:35 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: stop trolling. | 00:35 |
| zacwalls | I am not | 00:35 |
| zacwalls | I am looking for help | 00:35 |
| k1l_ | zacwalls: you were kicked last time you trolled in here. so stop it or leave. dont waste the volunteers time | 00:35 |
| zacwalls | I am not. | 00:35 |
| squinty | zacwalls: then you might as well give up now. linux is not an OS for people who can't be bothered to take the time to try and understand it. | 00:36 |
| zacwalls | I just want help | 00:36 |
| amicrawler2012 | my computer is a compact AMD Athlon(tm) XP 3200+ | 00:36 |
| amicrawler2012 | i was just wondering if i can run any thing better then ubunut 10.04 | 00:36 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: if you are looking for suggestions on hardware upgrades then you need to ask in a hardware channel | 00:36 |
| amicrawler2012 | where is that | 00:37 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: you can even run a 14.04. but you need to use some lightweight desktopns | 00:37 |
| amicrawler2012 | some thing like xfce | 00:37 |

| === andrex is now known as andrex|off | ||

| amicrawler2012 | im trying im not a super nerd | 00:39 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: so please upgrade all the upgrade t at least 12.04. since your system now got serious security issues | 00:39 |
| amicrawler2012 | what about video it has svga | 00:40 |
| amicrawler2012 | is there a video issue on 12 | 00:40 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: you have no choice. | 00:40 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: grab the lubuntu 12 and try it | 00:40 |
| amicrawler2012 | ok | 00:40 |
| k1l_ | amicrawler2012: its not about "can i stay at 10.10?". its just about "how do you get to a supported ubuntu asap" | 00:41 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: see if you can install another 512 meg ram in that box too ;-) | 00:42 |
| amicrawler2012 | what is the mem comand | 00:44 |
| amicrawler2012 | to see what i have on the computet | 00:44 |
| gr33n7007h | amicrawler2012, free -m | 00:45 |
| Bashing-om | amicrawler2012: I also advocate try'n Lubuntu ; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements/. I ran 12.04 Lubuntu quite well on a single core AMD board (2 Gigs of ram though !). | 00:45 |
| amicrawler2012 | 939MB ram | 00:45 |
| squinty | amicrawler2012: fwiw, ran lubuntu 14 with 1 gig and setup for xbmc for playing shows. no speed demon but no problem playing videos either | 00:48 |

| tom223 | my wifi card driver has a bug | 00:51 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: don't play games and don't ask too much of it? :) | 00:52 |
| k1l_ | Qbuo: i dont think there is something to maximize | 00:52 |
| Qbuo | daftykins: its here to play a couple source games till i can buy a r9 290 | 00:52 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: AMD on Linux? interesting choice | 00:53 |
| k1l_ | Qbuo: reduce the setttings in the games until it runs smooth | 00:53 |
| daftykins | no don't try and mess around i'd say, just deal with it :) | 00:53 |
| Qbuo | Not much of a choice, unless i wanted a 100$ graphics card and windows | 00:53 |
| daftykins | how is picking AMD not a choice? :) | 00:53 |
| Qbuo | Anybody ELSE have a useful opinion? | 00:53 |
| Qbuo | My use of ubuntu is not a choice | 00:53 |
| Qbuo | if it was, i would never be picking it | 00:54 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: no i mean AMD vs. nvidia | 00:55 |
| daftykins | i'm not talking about the OS choice | 00:55 |
| Qbuo | I'm not going to change the card that matches my price range to match the preference of my free operating system | 00:55 |
| k1l_ | Qbuo: sorry, why so aggressive now? as an enduser there is nothing i could imagine how you could increase the performance of the cpu-buildin gpu. not if you start programming the video driver yourself. | 00:56 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: yeah i don't really get what's gotten you so hot headed for all of a sudden. | 00:56 |
| Qbuo | I came here for a quick answer, the answer i don't want is "deal with it" | 00:56 |
| squinty | lose the attitude | 00:57 |
| squinty | don't like the advice then leave... no one really cares | 00:57 |
| k1l_ | Qbuo: see my answer. if you dont like the "there is nothing" answer should we lie to you to make you happy? | 00:57 |
| Qbuo | My main topic was how to improve the performance of Intel HD graphics 4400 in any small way possible. | 00:57 |
| daftykins | Qbuo: well, there aren't any options beyond turning settings down as k1l_ said... would you like us to wave a magic wand? | 00:58 |
| Qbuo | k1l_:You don't need to lie, there can't possibly be no small tips for improvement | 00:58 |
| Qbuo | Do you knwo f any settings that i can disable, or power options to adjust? | 00:58 |

| ziikutv | Hello | 01:19 |
| ggjreryh | Just now my ubuntu 14.04 laptop wont connect to internet or router.suddenly... Router and internet works for my phone. Wtf? | 01:20 |
| ziikutv | During the installation procedure, I am prompted to check whether or not I would like to Encrypt the new Ubuntu installation; while I understand, vageuly, what they mean by encrypting, what are the consequences of me doing so? Do I take up more space? | 01:20 |
| SchrodingersScat | ziikutv: shouldn't need more space. Recovering from a failure might be harder, extra steps to decrypt maybe. | 01:21 |
| ziikutv | Thanks | 01:21 |
| ziikutv | I also found this article http://askubuntu.com/questions/429590/what-are-the-advantages-disadvantages-of-the-new-encryption-feature-in-ubuntu-13 | 01:21 |
| ziikutv | interesting read; thanks. | 01:21 |
| ggjreryh | Any ideas? | 01:22 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Encryption is another level of compelexity .. and in times of trouble maybe not able to overcome . IF there is no need for it, do not go there. Just my thought . | 01:23 |
| * squinty too | 01:23 | |
| squinty | and if you do..... save and remember where your passwords are stored. ;-) | 01:24 |
| ziikutv | I would appreciate some help | 01:24 |

| Trailew | Hi, is that possible to install Intel drivers ( hd 4400 ) on ubuntu without desktop environment, I only see packages for gtk ect... | 01:24 |
| ziikutv | I resized my 500 gb harddrive and set aside 150 gb of space for ubuntu | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: the intel driver is in the kernel so it is already there on the server install | 01:25 |
| bekks | Trailew: I doesnt make any sense to install drivers for your GPU without a graphical environment. | 01:25 |
| ziikutv | I am on the step where I have to pick the "device" I think I have located which one is the correct particition.. but when I double click on it, there are many options.. what do I pick (Ext4, ext3,ext2 ... EFi boot option, physical volume for encription) | 01:25 |
| Trailew | bekks: yes it does, if your use a media center without DE | 01:25 |
| ziikutv | and there is also another section asking "Device for boot loader installation" | 01:25 |
| bekks | Trailew: So your media center PC is command line only? | 01:26 |
| Trailew | bekks: pretty much yes. with an app on my phone or an xbox360 remote controller | 01:26 |
| bekks | Trailew: So you have a graphical application on it. | 01:26 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest19750 | ||
| Trailew | bekks: there is a x11 but no login ect... | 01:26 |
| bekks | Trailew: There is still a graphical environment on it. | 01:27 |
| Trailew | I mean I can install Nvidia drivers without DE ( with ncurse ) why it isn't possible to do that with intel | 01:27 |
| Guest19750 | i am new on this kind of chat | 01:27 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: did you read my answer? | 01:27 |
| Trailew | k1l_: yes but it's missing all the opengl stuff | 01:27 |
| Trailew | k1l_: I guess? | 01:28 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: i dont get your issue right now | 01:28 |
| ggjreryh | Any ideas at all why networking suddenly died on my laptop? | 01:28 |
| Trailew | k1l_: My issue is I think I don't have what's necessary to use HW decoding with Kodi ( ex xbmc ) I need drivers for my hd 4400 on ubuntu 14.04 | 01:29 |
| bekks | Trailew: Either you have Kodi or you have Ubuntu. | 01:29 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: if you dont have stuff running who needs opengl, then its not installed. if you have stuff running that needs it: its installed. if it non of this 2 versions its a depency error. or a faulty 3rd party setup | 01:29 |
| Trailew | bekks: I installed Kodi on top of Ubuntu server | 01:30 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: so it installed: mesa-utils right? | 01:31 |
| Bashing-om | ggjreryh: The card died ? The cat pulled the cord ? Port is bad ? .. what returns from -> sudo lshw -C network , lspci | grep Ethernet <- ? | 01:31 |
| Trailew | k1l_: yes it does | 01:31 |
| ggjreryh | Its over wifi and says connected. Everything works fine for my phone | 01:32 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: xbmc is like a desktop enviroment. just you dont use ith with a mouse and keyboard is not important | 01:32 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: so what is the error? | 01:32 |
| Bashing-om | ggjreryh: Sorry, WIFI skiils are not in my tool box .. others wil hav to advise. | 01:33 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: iirc you worry too much about a issue that is not an issue :) | 01:33 |
| Trailew | k1l_: To be honnest the main problem is when I run Kodi all CPU are sitting at 100% I thought it was using some kind of software decoding therefore I needed intel drivers ect... | 01:33 |
| k1l_ | Trailew: then see what is causing all that cpu usage | 01:34 |
| ggjreryh | Its kinda odd that happened suddenly.... | 01:35 |
| Trailew | k1l_: I think that's one of the problem: GL_VENDOR = VMware, Inc. | 01:35 |
| k1l_ | its runnin in a vm? | 01:35 |
| daftykins | *facepalm* | 01:36 |
| Trailew | k1l_: allright i might have an idea | 01:36 |

| k1l_ | Trailew: is it in a vm? | 01:37 |

| EphraimB | in Windows 10 | 01:45 |
| utopian | I've come to the conclusion that when using public tunnel brokers liek he.net you sohuld no allow ipv6 for updates | 01:46 |
| utopian | The transit is banned at their ipx for some reason | 01:46 |
| daftykins | EphraimB: run diskmgmt.msc, select them and delete | 01:46 |
| utopian | I can ping it from any of my ipv6 enabled vps with native transit | 01:46 |
| utopian | I don't know why places are filtering he.net these days | 01:46 |
| utopian | It's stupid | 01:46 |
| EphraimB | Delete Volume option is greyed out | 01:46 |
| utopian | I imagine since they allow bgp peering that folks try to bgp poison | 01:47 |
| daftykins | EphraimB: use an ubuntu live session then | 01:47 |

| daftykins | utopian: you're getting a bit off topic with this discussion | 01:47 |

| utopian | excelllleent answer this simple question then and i'll be on my way | 01:47 |
| utopian | this is on topic | 01:47 |
| daftykins | ah, you wanna make a deal eh? ;) | 01:47 |
| utopian | lol | 01:47 |
| EphraimB | How do I do it on Windows? | 01:48 |
| ziikutv | So I need to create a swap partition and a ext4 partition for ubuntu? am i right? | 01:48 |
| daftykins | EphraimB: well you should just be able to highlight the partitions ubuntu installed to, then delete those. but if as you've said the option is not there... then it's live session and gparted time. i'm kinda getting the... going around in circles idea. | 01:48 |
| daftykins | ziikutv: what are you installing to? it tends to be auto these days | 01:49 |
| amos | Alguien sabe como puedo entrar a un disco externo | 01:49 |
| k1l_ | !es | amos | 01:49 |
| ubottu | amos: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 01:49 |
| ziikutv | daftykins I have one hard drive I made a 150 gb partition on it wanted ubuntu on that and dual boot it with my windows 7 | 01:49 |
| daftykins | ziikutv: then yeah, you can go the single partition route | 01:50 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: I do not see ANY Windows partitions on that hard drive .. as it stands now .. install grub to 'sda' . Maybe best at this point to quit the installer and provide -from the liveDVD the results of terminal commands -> sudo fdisk -lu , sudo parted -l < - . | 01:50 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om thats not my screen thats a picture i saw on the internet | 01:50 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: In that case .. shos the channel - in pastebin - what is current on the hard drive -> sudo fdisk -lu , sudo parted -l <- . | 01:52 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om I cannot do those terminal commands atm | 01:52 |
| Bashing-om | shos/show* | 01:52 |
| nimmersatt | there is noone in ubuntu-touch :o | 01:52 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7742727/IMG_20150118_205051.jpg this is mine | 01:52 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Look'n at yours . | 01:53 |
| daftykins | nimmersatt: best advice, buy a device that's known good to work. don't buy something with the hope that maybe it'll run ubuntu | 01:53 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om the one I have selected there, I double clicked and readjusted it to 1600 and set that to the swap, then I am assuming it will keep the remaining as free space then Ill just make that into ext4, anything wrong here? | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Assumming that you will keep Windows on the 1st hard drive 'sda' and ubuntu on the 2nd hard driv 'sdb'with "data' partitions. then yes you are looking good .. but make sure in this scene that grub gets installed to 'sdb' and when booting that the boot priority in bios is set to the 2nd hard drive. | 01:57 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om sdb is a usb drive, that is not suppose to be used for anything | 01:58 |
| nimmersatt | thanks for advice, daftykins :) | 01:59 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: on the 1st hard drive 'sda' there is no provision at this time for ubuntu .. ubuntu's default file system is " ext4 " . | 01:59 |
| EphraimB | I want to upgrade from ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10 through ISO. How do I do this in a multi-boot? | 01:59 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om I just said, I am going to partition the 150 gb into two partitions, one called swap (16 gb) and the other will be ext4 where I will install ubuntu (ext4 of size 150 - 16 gb) | 02:00 |
| backingup | where are the nautilus view settings stored? | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: There is a process when dealing with Windows . defrag Windows twice, in Windows resize the OS partition to the size for ubuntu to install onto, then in Windows run 'check disk' twice ... THEN in ubuntu installer choose "something else" and create the partitions. | 02:03 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om why? | 02:04 |
| ziikutv | I resized from the OS using Partition manage 124 | 02:04 |
| ziikutv | But I did not defrag | 02:04 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: So Windows has a partition table to boot up from . | 02:04 |
| kokut | Hello, anyone knows a way to show all the devices connected to my routeR? | 02:05 |
| newbooter | So I just did some reading on zeitgeist... | 02:05 |
| newbooter | Hm. | 02:05 |
| ziikutv | How do I pick the mount point | 02:06 |
| newbooter | I see the intent, but what about the security aspect? Can anyone point me to a good online resource on the topic? | 02:06 |
| EphraimB | How do I reinstall Ubuntu on a multi-boot? | 02:07 |
| newbooter | Just read this one: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/08/is-zeitgeist-spying-on-you | 02:07 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Trying to realize where you are in the install process .. best I recall the "mount point" is 'use as " .. and that is '/' . | 02:08 |
| newbooter | Article points out a lot of the info that zeitgeist uses is already in app logs anyway... | 02:08 |
| newbooter | So I wonder, in theory, could application x or y look at, for example, browser logs on a unix system? Or would it have to gain some extra permission first? | 02:08 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om so what I did is undo my steps and restart pc. Then I went to Try Ubuntu section.. | 02:08 |
| newbooter | So is the idea to only get apps from trusted repo's and trust that repo checks that apps don't do that kind of stuff? | 02:09 |
| ziikutv | I made all the parititons there (I still have not clicked the checkmark yet); then what I will do is go backto windows and do the defraging. Sound good? | 02:09 |
| dannymichel | Ok, so I have been comparing NTFS applications to write to my NTFS external on OS X, but have been hearing bad things about data loss and corrupt drives. I considered installing a Ubuntu virtual machine and sharing that drive on it to write it, but wouldn't that kind of be the same thing? Using OS X's drivers? | 02:09 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: IF you have made partitons for ubuntu .. I would not defrag now ... Windows now has enough to deal with . | 02:10 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om I simply made the ~150 gb partition, still have to format it as ext4 and subtract the 1600 mb as swap | 02:12 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: ziikutv I see no provision at this time " https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7742727/IMG_20150118_205051.jpg " for ubuntu . | 02:13 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om nope at that point it was just windows resized and ~150gb free space. | 02:14 |
| amos | alguien habla español | 02:15 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om here is where I am; I still have not selected "Apply all operations" yet which I will do once you think I have done the right steps. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jw1nes9ay7lgb7i/AABjT7a4YtWGkhZZAODULCH7a?dl=0 | 02:16 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Then as you have exited the installer, I would boot windows and run check disk .. to insure Windows partition table is intact. Then boot to the ubuntu installer " something else" and in the installer make up the partitions. One may make up the ubuntu partitions in GPartd, and in the install process point the installer to these partitions. | 02:17 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om should I not click Apply All operations eyt? | 02:17 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: IF you are satisfied with the changes you will make, sure apply the changes . | 02:18 |
| RawSushi | Hi. Not sure if this is an ubuntu issue or a virtualbox issue...but I installed ubuntu in a virtualbox, and also installed guest additions...but for some reason 1920x1080 isn't an option for the resolutions. How would I go about fixing this? | 02:18 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: There is a 4 partition limit in MBR partitioning .. what one normally does is crate a 'extended' partition when dual booting with Windows .. and in this 'extended' partition make up the 'logical' partitions for ubuntu .. done like that ? | 02:20 |
| ziikutv | I am confused by what you just said | 02:20 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om on that picture i sent you, there is also a dropdown "Device for boot loader installation" should I pick sda (as in the 500 gb harddrive) or? | 02:22 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: How can I un-confuse you // Due to addressing there can only be 4 primary partitions on a hard drive . The way to get around this limitation is creat an 'extended' partition as one of those 4 primary partitions. | 02:22 |
| ziikutv | I only have thre | 02:22 |
| ziikutv | three* | 02:22 |
| ziikutv | Four* | 02:22 |
| gustavo__ | is anyone here familiar with ddwrt and could help me with some trouble i'm having on an asus rt66u | 02:24 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om here is the new screen... https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/IMG_20150118_212513.jpg?_subject_uid=7742727&w=AAD5H69a7zKGmL-FyTARe5Araw3Aowi_lSRTHxrKjejAxQ | 02:26 |
| rww | gustavo__: No, because this is Ubuntu support. Try ##dd-wrt | 02:26 |
| rww | (or ddwrt's other support options) | 02:26 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: looking at your last provided sceen shot .. there are 3 partitions devoted to Windows . So that space for ubuntu to install onto - in this situation - is to make up that 4th partition 'extended' and in this 'extended' container make up 'logical' partitions .. ( we can have 128 logical partitions within this 'extended' partition) . Maybe best to provide a new screen shot of what you presently have from GParted .OK .. look'n at https://dl | 02:27 |
| gustavo__ | rww: i'm in dd-wrt. no one know | 02:27 |
| gustavo__ | s | 02:27 |
| backingup | where are the settings for nautilus's default view? | 02:27 |
| rww | gustavo__: Okay. We still only do Ubuntu support here, sorry. | 02:27 |
| gustavo__ | ok | 02:28 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om sdb is not part of the computer, sda has four partitions that I can see. | 02:28 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: I gt a 403 from that ...try again ? | 02:28 |
| Loshki | gustav___: Try in the dd-wrt channel | 02:28 |
| Navid | Evening, Im in an emergency situation here | 02:28 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/IMG_20150118_212513.jpg?_subject_uid=7742727&w=AAD5H69a7zKGmL-FyTARe5Araw3Aowi_lSRTHxrKjejAxQ | 02:28 |
| Navid | I accidentally used mount --bind on a folder that had all my webserver files in /var/www | 02:29 |
| Navid | Is there anyway to undo this, I've just lost about 4 websites of information | 02:29 |
| Bashing-om | !paste | ziikutv As I am not signing into any site . | 02:30 |
| ubottu | ziikutv As I am not signing into any site .: 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. | 02:30 |
| Loshki | Navid: mounting does't generally destroy files. There's a good chance it's all still there. Have you tried just unmounting the mount? | 02:30 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om http://imgur.com/0IelkoS | 02:31 |
| Navid | Basically what I did was mount --bind /home/user /var/www/user to so ftp would be directed to /var/www/user instead but mistake of mine. | 02:31 |
| Navid | Yeah Im looking at both folders /var/wwww and /home/user nothing in either folders | 02:31 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: look'n at your http://imgur.com/0IelkoS . | 02:32 |
| ziikutv | Yeah | 02:32 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om so I have exactly four and I dont know how to make that extended at least from here, i know its possible in gparted. | 02:33 |
| Navid | Any idea Loshki | 02:33 |
| Loshki | Navid: can you pastebin the output of 'df -h' and 'mount' | 02:33 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: That looks good to me .. 4 primary partitions is doable .. and install grub to 'sda' . | 02:34 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: However, installing like this leaves no way to expand in the future . ( say add a 'data' patrtion to share ). | 02:35 |
| Navid | Loshki: http://pastebin.com/hU7VRVJP | 02:35 |
| Loshki | Navid: did you make any *permanent* changes to the mounts e.g. by editing /etc/fstab or /etc/rc.local? | 02:38 |
| Navid | no | 02:39 |
| Navid | i didnt touch those | 02:40 |
| Loshki | Navid: Then my advice at this point is to reboot and pray. On reboot, everything should remount as it was originally. You might wanna take a second opinion before you do this... | 02:40 |
| xFFFF | Have a live distro on standby? | 02:40 |
| Navid | Actually that's true, the reason I was mounting it because my folders were unmounted when I restarted server | 02:41 |
| Ben64 | Navid: you should be able to unmount them now | 02:41 |
| Navid | Without restarting? | 02:41 |
| Ben64 | yes | 02:41 |
| Navid | Im hesitant about typing any commands I find in google again | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | sudo umount /home/swiftkite | 02:42 |
| Loshki | Ben64: unless some fool process has files open on the mount, in which case it won't unmount... | 02:42 |
| xFFFF | ...but it will tell you if it fails. | 02:43 |
| xFFFF | If it unmounts successfully, it will just return. | 02:43 |
| Navid | It returned | 02:43 |
| Ben64 | i'm surprised it let you mount something to itself | 02:43 |
| Navid | And my files are not back | 02:43 |
| Ben64 | did it return anything | 02:43 |
| Navid | Same as before, the files in /var/WWW/swiftkite are the same as /home/swiftkite, but before /var/www/swiftkite had lots of other files. | 02:44 |
| Ben64 | sudo umount /var/www/swiftkite | 02:44 |
| Navid | Didn't change it | 02:45 |
| Navid | when I run 'mount' | 02:45 |
| Navid | there is this line: /home/swiftkite on /var/www/swiftkite type none (rw,bind) | 02:45 |
| Navid | Maybe I need to unbind it too | 02:45 |
| Ben64 | only that one? | 02:45 |
| Navid | Well there is more but related the /home/swiftkite and /var/ww | 02:46 |
| Navid | I could pastbin if needed | 02:46 |
| Ben64 | so all 3 are still there? | 02:46 |
| Navid | Nope just that line now | 02:46 |
| xFFFF | Hi everyone I've got a dumb SSH question I'm sure a few gurus out there would be able to answer... I'm trying to SSH in to my Ubuntu server @ home which has a dynamically assigned external IP. | 02:46 |
| Ben64 | then "sudo umount /home/swiftkite" again | 02:46 |
| xFFFF | I've had a brain fart and can't get the whole reverse tunnel thing going. | 02:46 |
| Navid | OH my goodness. | 02:47 |
| Navid | Thank you Ben64, its back. | 02:47 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om so I installed and restarted, no boot selection screen..... | 02:47 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om booted right into ubuntu | 02:47 |
| Navid | And Loshki--save me a heart attack and weeks of work to put it back on here. | 02:47 |
| Ben64 | Navid: instead of messing around with binding directories, maybe make your documentroot in the directory you want? | 02:47 |
| Navid | I wanted to do that but I have external users that would access via ftp and I want them to access only their folder in this case /var/www/swiftkite rather then having their own home directory | 02:48 |
| Ben64 | what the difference if you're just binding that to another directory | 02:48 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Yuk, let's see what you got -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit , sudo parted -l | pastebinit <- . | 02:49 |
| Navid | Good question, at the time of setting up apache, I thought it would be better organizing to have all web apps in /var/www like apache documents it | 02:49 |
| brianmwaters | is the preferred way to enable and disable services with upstart just to edit the /etc/init/whatever file? (i'm used to debian, w/ sysvinit and rc*.d) | 02:50 |
| annaTherk_ | I'm having a difficult time installing dev environment on my Linux VM, does anyone have any good tutorials to suggest? | 02:50 |
| Ben64 | Navid: for multiple sites on a single server, i find it easier to have web directories in each user's home directory | 02:50 |
| Ben64 | !upstart | brianmwaters | 02:51 |
| ubottu | brianmwaters: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 02:51 |
| brianmwaters | i have seen the website! just asking about best practices. | 02:51 |
| brianmwaters | thanks tho | 02:51 |
| Ben64 | website explains it all | 02:51 |
| brianmwaters | ok | 02:51 |
| ziikutv | First: www.pastebin.com/rVFH03Wt and Second: www.pastebin.com/LYmnDFpt | 02:52 |
| Navid | I'm going to take your advice and change it to the setting you mention Ben64, it will save a lot of hassle in the future | 02:52 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: look'n . | 02:52 |
| ziikutv | ty | 02:52 |
| memeka | hi, at boot there are several services starting multiple times... any idea where to look for the issue? | 02:52 |
| memeka | * Starting save udev log and update rules [ OK ] * Stopping save udev log and update rules [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] | 02:53 |
| memeka | * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] | 02:53 |
| brianmwaters | Ben64: found it in the cookbook, thanks | 02:53 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: I see no fault .. so when you boot the system what happens if you hold the right shift key down when the bios screen clears ? | 02:55 |
| ziikutv | when i restrted i did not see bios screen | 02:55 |
| ziikutv | i did not see anything | 02:55 |
| ziikutv | it just flashed on and off (my screen truns off when display is black) then it jsut went to ubuntu desktop, no ubuntu logo nothing. | 02:56 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Auto login set ? YOU are presently booting into the ubuntu install, yes ? | 02:58 |
| ziikutv | Yeah i chekced auto login | 02:58 |
| ziikutv | and yes in ubuntu now. | 02:58 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Presently I do not know .. have never messed about with auto login .. but let's make sure ubuntu recogizes Windows. Terminal command -> sudo update-grub <- is Windows seen in the output ? | 03:00 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om by the way I had windows 8 before and i reinstalled on the harddrive windows 7, I used to see the screen which let me pick between windows 7 and windows 8 (when I picked windowed 8 nothing happend because it was no longer there) | 03:02 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om the reason I tell you this now ( i thought this was irrelevant ) is because of this... www.pastebin.com/Ag5B6nJn is the result when I type the command you requested. | 03:03 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Again, I am getting into unknown waters with Windows 8, as Windows 8 requires GPT partitioning and UEFI booting. It may take someone smarter than I to make sure there is no residual data for the GPT partition table . You are now installed as MBR vice GPT . | 03:05 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Nope, looks good as far as what ubuntu's bootloader sees and knows about ... we just ned to find a way to get the grub menu to display in an 'autologin' situation, I bet ! | 03:07 |
| backingup | where are nautilus's default view files stored? | 03:07 |
| Bashing-om | ned/need* | 03:07 |
| xFFFF | Hi everyone I've got a dumb SSH question I'm sure a few gurus out there would be able to answer... I'm trying to SSH in to my Ubuntu server @ home which has a dynamically assigned external IP. | 03:10 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: use a dynamic dns service | 03:11 |
| xFFFF | That's what I am doing at the moment. I would like to avoid using it all together. | 03:11 |
| xFFFF | Also, I have multiple registered domains... If I have to I'd prefer to use one of them as a private DDNS | 03:12 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: then do that? | 03:12 |
| NikolaiToryzin | What you do is sign up with a service to do that and cname one of your domains to the domain they give you | 03:12 |
| NikolaiToryzin | That might work | 03:12 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: Windows8 has UEFI as the firmware .. and there is no standard on how UEFI is implemented. All I can suggest at this time is to play around with the boot options -> CCSM ? and see what you can come up for the boot menu . | 03:13 |
| xFFFF | It's the reverse tunneling that I can't figure out. My googlefu has failed me. | 03:13 |
| xFFFF | At the moment I can connect to home using a DDNS service provider. | 03:14 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: use a cname | 03:14 |
| mr392 | I was wondering if anyone could kindly direct me to some place where I could troubleshoot audio problems with my Dell laptop's build in audio card? Thank you. (Extensive google searching has not helped me) | 03:14 |
| xFFFF | How do I update the cname record when the external IP changes? | 03:14 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: you don't need tunnel if you know your ip | 03:14 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: You don't, just make one with a tiny ttl | 03:14 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om OKay thanks for the help :) | 03:14 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: A cname maps 1 domain to another | 03:15 |
| Ben64 | don't need cname, google domains supports dynamic dns | 03:15 |
| NikolaiToryzin | So looking up your cname makes it look up the ddns hostname | 03:15 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Or maybe he doesn't want to change DNS service | 03:15 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om I gotta goto bed now unfortunately :( | 03:15 |
| NikolaiToryzin | You know | 03:15 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Like a sane person. | 03:15 |
| Ben64 | ok then, dns.he.net supports dynamic dns | 03:15 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Why would he ever change his DNS service. | 03:16 |
| Ben64 | to get dynamic dns, duh | 03:16 |
| Bashing-om | ziikutv: K; good night .. sleep well and in your dreams come to terms with UEFI . | 03:16 |
| ziikutv | Bashing-om however, upon restart now I have a choice of picking several thing.. I pick windows 8 loader, then it takes me back to the old screen where I have to pick between windows 7 and winodws 8... so its not a major problem. | 03:16 |
| NikolaiToryzin | But I have him a solution that works perfectly. | 03:16 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Gave* | 03:16 |
| Ben64 | which involves signing up to a different service | 03:16 |
| NikolaiToryzin | He already uses a ddns service | 03:16 |
| NikolaiToryzin | So that's wrong. | 03:16 |
| NikolaiToryzin | My solution takes 2 seconds and is always updated. | 03:17 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Yours requires signing up with a service and moving his domains. | 03:17 |
| Ben64 | doesn't require moving domains | 03:18 |
| daftykins | now now, settle this like adults! here are your pistols. | 03:20 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: ping | 03:22 |
| xFFFF | Still here. | 03:22 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: So basically what a cname does is tell a DNS recursive resolver that it should actually look up another domain. So if you set a cname from home.xf.com to xf.ddns.com looking up home.xf.com would always return the IP for xf.ddns.com | 03:24 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: I run the DNS authoria | 03:25 |
| rd_ | no network after resume from acpi suspend (s3) | 03:25 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Authoritarian servers for my company so if you need help at all just ask :) | 03:25 |
| rd_ | question mark on network manager | 03:26 |
| xFFFF | I'm not sure I understand where you are coming from NikolaiToryzin... | 03:26 |
| xFFFF | How would I create a cname record that points to a server with a dynamically assigned IP? | 03:27 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: he really wants you to use cname instead of a better dns service that includes dynamic dns | 03:27 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Ben64: stop shitposting | 03:27 |
| daftykins | k | 03:27 |
| daftykins | oops | 03:27 |
| daftykins | i'm with Ben64 on this one, you need to do the job properly. | 03:28 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: you would make a new record, called whatever you want, and point it to blahblah.dyndns.com or whatever | 03:28 |
| Ben64 | NikolaiToryzin: i get that you're angry, but that language is not allowed here | 03:28 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: The cname basically says to query the ddns domain. | 03:28 |
| xFFFF | Ohhh. you're saying to continue to use the DDNS provider. | 03:28 |
| xFFFF | I've got ya. That's not what I'm after (hence the confusion) | 03:28 |

| daftykins | xFFFF: what do you think will keep your IP up to date, then? | 03:30 |
| xFFFF | I should be able to acheive this with reverse SSH no? | 03:30 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: that would require you to keep a connection open 24/7 from home->wherever | 03:30 |
| xFFFF | yup. | 03:30 |
| rebs | my vlc is hung, i know the pid but how do i kill it? | 03:30 |
| xFFFF | ...If it drops out, I can cron it. | 03:31 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: not a great way to do that | 03:31 |
| daftykins | rebs: kill $PID | 03:31 |
| daftykins | or kill -9 $PID if it refuses | 03:31 |
| backingup | rebs: yeah, or you can go to system monitor | 03:31 |
| rebs | -9 helped! | 03:32 |
| rebs | time to read the man page, thx | 03:32 |
| xFFFF | I've got a new plan... | 03:32 |
| xFFFF | Ubuntu server checks external IP and updates external host as it changes. | 03:32 |
| Ben64 | so... dynamic dns | 03:33 |
| daftykins | via some kind of... dynamic DNS client | 03:33 |
| xFFFF | Create a new user on the host with a bash script what essentially just SSH's straight in to the Ubuntu server on connection. | 03:33 |
| Ben64 | why | 03:34 |
| xFFFF | I have no good reason not to use a DDNS provider. I just don't want to. | 03:34 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Run your own? | 03:35 |
| xFFFF | NikolaiToryzin: That's what I'm going to do. | 03:35 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Can't imagine writing a little DNS server to do that would be too hard | 03:35 |
| Ben64 | in the time this conversation has been going on, i got dynamic dns set up on domains.google.com | 03:35 |
| daftykins | it tends to end badly when users are stubborn about making tasks more awkward than they have to be | 03:35 |
| xFFFF | lol | 03:36 |
| Ben64 | ddclient + fill in the blanks = done | 03:36 |
| xFFFF | xFFFF = stubborn | 03:36 |
| Ben64 | well have fun with that | 03:36 |
| NikolaiToryzin | xFFFF: I love your attitude | 03:37 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Reminds me of me :) | 03:37 |
| basichash | Do i need to manually install intel graphic drivers or are they included by default in ubuntu? | 03:37 |
| daftykins | included. | 03:38 |
| basichash | thanks | 03:38 |
| xFFFF | NikolaiToryzin: II find that it is a great way to learn things. | 03:39 |
| xFFFF | I think I've got it. | 03:39 |
| === andrex is now known as andrex|off | ||
| Ben64 | why learn something that serves no purpose? | 03:39 |
| xFFFF | On the host I have a simple page like what'smyIP. | 03:39 |
| xFFFF | It's not the goal. It's the journey. | 03:39 |
| daftykins | all i can say is i hope i don't encounter you two in real life :P | 03:39 |
| daftykins | you probably have a rube goldberg breakfast machine | 03:40 |
| xFFFF | On the Ubuntu server I check the IP periodically. On an IP change I update the host. | 03:40 |
| * daftykins gets back on topic | 03:40 | |
| Ben64 | daftykins: doc brown already did that | 03:40 |
| daftykins | :D | 03:40 |
| Ben64 | xFFFF: yes, thats what ddclient does | 03:40 |
| xFFFF | I have a login script that will SSH straight in to the Ubtunu server when I connect to the host as 'user X' | 03:40 |
| Ben64 | that part still makes less than none sense | 03:41 |
| xFFFF | The script on the host will read a file 'current.IP' and use it when 'user X' loggs in. | 03:42 |
| xFFFF | Simple. | 03:42 |
| xFFFF | I'm sure there is a way to do this with SSH exclusively. | 03:42 |
| Ben64 | still doesn't make sense, but have fun | 03:43 |
| xFFFF | I will. Thanks for the help (even if you think I'm crazy) | 03:44 |

| Moonlightning | Is `sudo stop lightdm` graceful? If not, how do I quit it gracefully? | 04:09 |
| reisio | Moonlightning: yes | 04:09 |
| reisio | although if you're also running a DE, more graceful still would be to exit that gracefully beforehand, too | 04:10 |
| Moonlightning | …I thought that /was/ the desktop environment. 6_9 | 04:10 |
| reisio | Moonlightning: de = desktop environment, dm = display manager (aka login manager) | 04:16 |
| reisio | o_o | 04:17 |

| reisio | can't imagine why you'd want to | 04:21 |
| Loshki | Moonlightning: strictly speaking, the *dm programs are Desktop Managers, and their main job is to post a greeting, authenticate you, and hand you off to an entirely different layer of software. In principle, you can freely mix any DM with any DE. In practice, this occasionally works. | 04:21 |
| basichash | i need it for some music apps | 04:22 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, the restricted-extras for the de you have are what is installed most of the time, what release is this? | 04:23 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: 14.04 LTS | 04:24 |
| bubbasaures | most/some depends on the user I suppose | 04:24 |
| wfio | This is kind of a dumb question and I have searched all the old haunts but I cannot find any substantive affirmation that it is possible to do a stand-alone installation of Ubuntu on a Chromebook. Can someone provide some clarity? | 04:24 |

| ubottu | basichash: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 04:26 |

| basichash | bubbasaures: which should i remove? | 04:29 |

| justgreg | *and running | 04:54 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, Depends, you have to remember repos will add packages, these packages can conflict so just removing may leave troubles ahead. I would say your are new, back off on any ppa's or repos not ubuntu without researching and knowing where the support is for them. | 04:55 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, linux is different than windows say; that there repos are not added, in linux they can be. | 04:56 |

| bubbasaures | basichash, Not supported here really, however you will find people who will, but may be clueless, you gotta separate the wheat from the chaff. No you don;t need it, all you need is in the repos most of the time, especially intel. | 04:59 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: alright, good to know | 05:00 |

| nicomachus | hi guys! I'm trying to update a PC from 12.04 to 14.04.1, but I get an error saying "Unable to get exclusive lock" | 05:34 |
| Ben64 | nicomachus: you need to have anything using apt closed, like ubuntu software center, or synaptic, or things like that | 05:37 |
| nicomachus | Software center was running, but I didn't think it was updating anything at the time. I think it got messed up installing the updates somehow. | 05:39 |
| nicomachus | I bought a computer at a thrift store for $20 today, to use mainly as a netflix machine attached to a TV, but it's been giving me some trouble all day. | 05:40 |
| K4xul | Well it is only $20, haha | 05:41 |
| nicomachus | exactly why I bought it. Haha | 05:41 |
| nicomachus | moving to a new apartment in a month. We'll have free internet, so I'm just not going to get a cable package. | 05:41 |
| K4xul | That's cool | 05:42 |
| nicomachus | I figured a $20 thrift store computer with 1.5 Ghz and 75 Gb of memory could work for Netflix, Popcorn Time, and Spotify. | 05:43 |
| nicomachus | And then our laptops aren't tied up by being connected to the TV. | 05:43 |
| cryptodan | isnt 12.04 still LTS? | 05:44 |
| gsenna | u$s 20 for a computer? | 05:44 |

| cryptodan | Kamilion: there you go tail was working fine, but your log was not active. | 05:56 |
| bubbasaures | nicomachus, This is a command for restarting a stopped install, one anyway | 05:56 |
| bubbasaures | or update | 05:57 |
| Kamilion | cryptodan: huh? tail's still not updating. | 05:57 |
| Kamilion | cryptodan: I *noticed* it when I was turning password auth *ON*. | 05:57 |
| cryptodan | Kamilion: then what do you mean by this [19/05:56:22/Jan/2015] <Kamilion> alright, password auth is now enabled and I'm now getting attacked again. | 05:57 |
| bubbasaures | nicomachus, Your were trying to upgrade, you would state that if that was your interrupted right? | 05:58 |
| MACscr | hmm, will ubuntu randomly assign ipv6 addresses when there is no dhcp server assigning them? | 05:58 |
| Kamilion | cryptodan: I *JUST* turned password auth OFF because I was getting attacked by 103.41.124.14 | 05:58 |
| cryptodan | Kamilion: and how do you know if tail -f authlog was not working? | 05:58 |
| Kamilion | Because I'm sitting here WATCHING IT NOT WORK? | 05:58 |
| cryptodan | You are not making any sense at all Kamilion | 05:59 |
| zacwalls | Ubuntu is freezing alot lately. Like within the last 15 min alone, about 3 times. I have just cleaned all my fans. So it has to be ubuntu. I thought it could be outdated drivers for the GPU but have been to afraid to install because my hardware may be outdated. And i really dont want to take that chance. I really need a suggestion here. :( | 05:59 |
| Kamilion | and every time I ^C and 'tail -f /var/log/auth.log' there are new lines. | 05:59 |
| nicomachus | Yes, bubbasaurus | 05:59 |
| nicomachus | Yes bubbasaures | 05:59 |
| bubbasaures | nicomachus, Coo, thanks. | 05:59 |
| bubbasaures | Cool* | 05:59 |
| cryptodan | Kamilion: I am also getting probed by them | 05:59 |
| bubbasaures | zacwalls, Are you swapping maybe? | 05:59 |
| antimatroid | so I'm trying to disable/enable dropbox depending on which wireless network I'm connected to. How can I get a shell script to start dropbox when it's being run from /etc/network/if-up.d? if I use "/etc/bin/dropbox start" then it works when I run the script myself but not when nm_dispatcher runs it ("killall dropbox" works in both cases for closing dropbox) | 05:59 |
| cryptodan | if root is not allowed log in rights then dont worry | 06:00 |
| zacwalls | Maybe? | 06:00 |
| zacwalls | How can i check? | 06:00 |
| bubbasaures | zacwalls, Turn off the swap and see if you still have this issue, back on if you need to hibernate. | 06:00 |
| Kamilion | cryptodan: Thanks, I'll seek help elsewhere. | 06:01 |
| zacwalls | Is there a command or is it something you do manually? | 06:01 |
| nicomachus | installing 153 updates now. think i should try upgrading to 14.04.1 after that? | 06:01 |
| bubbasaures | zacwalls, Off sudo swapoff -a On sudo swapon -a | 06:01 |
| cryptodan | so if you have password auth disabled you wont get any password authentication failures in authlog | 06:01 |
| nicomachus | Any chance this computer won't run it? | 06:01 |
| zacwalls | Okay ill try that | 06:02 |
| nicomachus | Motherboard is an Asus Socket 775 | 06:02 |
| bubbasaures | zacwalls, If that is the issue, check out swappiness. | 06:02 |
| zacwalls | okay | 06:03 |
| bubbasaures | nicomachus, Anything can happen, always be prepared. | 06:04 |
| zacwalls | It mainly occurs in firefox, But my cpu is actually pxe and on the install i had to force pae. Is that potentially a problem? | 06:05 |
| jeffrey_f | looking for something like ccboot.com (iscsi diskless boot). I want something with a GUI | 06:05 |

| jeffrey_f | thanks cfhowlett | 06:11 |
| bubbasaures | justgreg, You all fixed? | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | jeffrey_f, happy2help! | 06:11 |
| reisio | gsenna: well, people should just make computers locally :) | 06:11 |
| justgreg | bubbasaures, I think so. I just ran a script that deleted kernels and headers that didn't match the current one. I could run the updater after the fact. | 06:13 |
| justgreg | the software lotuswhatever recommended didn't appear to do a thing about old kernels | 06:14 |
| bubbasaures | justgreg, Good, extra stuff in all but hard to tell exactly what | 06:14 |
| gsenna | reisio, you still have to bring the main components from china. imagine that it is summer here and there were problems trying to import tampons. | 06:15 |
| justgreg | why isn't there a built-in, automated solution, bubbasaures ? | 06:15 |
| reisio | you don't though :) | 06:15 |
| bubbasaures | justgreg, bleachbit is alright, just does not remove kernels if that what the issue. | 06:15 |
| reisio | silicon is everywhere | 06:15 |
| bubbasaures | was* | 06:15 |
| cfhowlett | gsenna, it's official: #ubuntu-offtopic. Thank you. | 06:15 |
| nicomachus | well I was able to restart with no problems after the update, which is where it went wrong last time. So looking good so far. | 06:15 |
| nicomachus | Time to try upgrading to 14.04.1.. | 06:16 |
| bubbasaures | justgreg, Autoremove I think does remove, I do it automatically from the command line is all | 06:16 |
| vlc-check | test | 06:16 |
| cryptodan | nicomachus: why are you wanting to go to 14.04 when 12.04 will work fine for Netflix? | 06:16 |
| vlc-check | anyone? | 06:16 |
| cfhowlett | !test | vlc-check, | 06:16 |
| ubottu | vlc-check,: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) | 06:16 |
| gsenna | cfhowlett, right, sorry. | 06:16 |
| justgreg | Do enough people need every kernel that's ever been on their computer that this needs to be manual? That seems stupid. | 06:17 |
| NikolaiToryzin | Doesn't apt-get autoremove old kernels regardless? | 06:17 |
| reisio | justgreg: do enough people have no ability to remove old porn videos that space is such an issue? :) | 06:17 |
| cfhowlett | NikolaiToryzin, by design it does not | 06:17 |
| nicomachus | cryptodan: would just rather be up to date. There's no reason it SHOULDN'T run on this PC. 14.04 only requires 1.0 Ghz and I've got more than that. | 06:18 |
| NikolaiToryzin | cfhowlett: Gotcha. | 06:18 |
| cryptodan | nicomachus: well 12.04 repos are still maintained till 2017 I believe | 06:18 |
| justgreg | reisio, a 75-character regex expression is not a button in my browser preferences. | 06:18 |
| cfhowlett | NikolaiToryzin, allow me to rephrase ... if the command is run, yes. BUT, how many "normal" users run that command? ever? | 06:18 |
| nicomachus | For support I usually go to a local irc channel and talk to some guys I know, and they all run 14.04 so it makes things easier. | 06:18 |
| cryptodan | so if 12.04 works then dont break it | 06:18 |
| nicomachus | what reason is there not to do it? | 06:18 |
| NikolaiToryzin | cfhowlett: oh! That makes more sense. | 06:18 |
| reisio | justgreg: you can say that again | 06:19 |
| reisio | (but why would you) | 06:19 |
| vlc-check | how to check stream if working programming ? | 06:19 |
| cfhowlett | NikolaiToryzin, the dev's are discussing whether to enable auto kernel deletion. | 06:19 |
| zacwalls | bubbasaures; Wow, That was the worst it ever was. I had to ctrl+alt+f1 to reboot...... | 06:20 |
| vlc-check | i use rtmpdump,but it can only check rtmp. | 06:20 |
| zacwalls | bubbasaures; Do we have anymore options? | 06:21 |
| vlc-check | anyone can make it ? | 06:21 |
| vlc-check | check stream if working programming | 06:21 |
| cfhowlett | NikolaiToryzin, http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-Devs-Are-Talking-Whether-to-Let-Software-Update-Delete-Old-Kernels-470284.shtml | 06:22 |

| === setdev is now known as setkeh | ||
| bubbasaures | zacwalls, Can't say that was just to see if it was an issue. | 06:25 |
| zacwalls | So Im guessing it is... | 06:26 |
| nicomachus | well shit. I installed hardware updates that were available and it broke the whole thing. | 06:27 |
| reisio | bummers | 06:27 |
| nicomachus | It installed the updates just fine, but then I restarted and it gets stuck on the "Ubuntu" load screen (before login) | 06:28 |
| basichash | I can't install ubuntu-gnome-desktop, because i have brokens packages, but when I filter packages for broken in synaptic, there's nothing there | 06:28 |
| nicomachus | Except the Ubuntu logo is showing twice and the display is all messed up. | 06:28 |
| cfhowlett | nicomachus, graphics... do nomodeset | 06:29 |
| nicomachus | How do I even get to a terminal from here? | 06:29 |
| cfhowlett | !nomodeset | nicomachus | 06:29 |
| ubottu | nicomachus: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 06:29 |
| basichash | specifically this is what i get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9782637/ | 06:29 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, Please always the command the whole shebang | 06:30 |
| bubbasaures | commands* | 06:30 |
| nicomachus | screw it, let's see if this Mint install will work. | 06:31 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: ah right. that was output of "apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop" | 06:31 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, What is it you want? | 06:31 |
| zacwalls | bubbasaures; I think it was firefox | 06:31 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: to install ubuntu-gnome-desktop | 06:31 |
| zacwalls | Downloading chromium...... | 06:32 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, which is to you the gnome 3 desktop? | 06:32 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: isn't it? | 06:32 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, not with that command | 06:32 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: ubuntu-gnome3-desktop then? | 06:33 |
| kryptonradon | where can I download trusty packages? I need some 386 libs that I can't install with apt | 06:33 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, You have link to what it is so we can be sure? | 06:33 |
| cfhowlett | kryptonradon, why can't apt get the packages? | 06:33 |
| kryptonradon | apt says they can't be installed due to conflicts | 06:34 |
| kryptonradon | so I'm going to put the libs in their own directory | 06:34 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: http://askubuntu.com/questions/462250/hide-title-bar-in-gnome-3-12 | 06:34 |
| kryptonradon | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 06:34 |
| kryptonradon | fglrx:i386 : Depends: dkms:i386 but it is not installable | 06:34 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: although i think i might need 3.10, as its easier with that version | 06:34 |
| cfhowlett | kryptonradon, apt-cache show will display the packages, but forcing the install is likely to cause pain | 06:34 |
| kryptonradon | there's an example | 06:34 |
| kryptonradon | I'm not going to force install them I'm going to extract the libs and put them in their own dir | 06:35 |
| kryptonradon | so I need to download the packages without apt | 06:35 |
| cfhowlett | kryptonradon, display the package with apt-cache show, wget the .deb and good luck with that | 06:36 |
| kryptonradon | thanks | 06:36 |
| bubbasaures | basichash, I think you want the fallback, I have to go for awhile so others may have this for you. | 06:36 |
| basichash | bubbasaures: ok | 06:36 |
| bubbasaures | nightly 15 min work lol | 06:37 |
| ns5 | How can I download src deb from this page and rebuild it? https://launchpad.net/~mosquitto-dev/+archive/ubuntu/mosquitto-ppa/+packages | 06:37 |
| Kamilion | cryptodan: Found the problem -- overlayfs does not impliment inotify correctly on the livecd. There is an undocumented workaround ---disable-inotify that makes it work. | 06:37 |
| cfhowlett | !source | ns5 | 06:43 |

| cfhowlett | slacko10622, don't know about best but ... techspalace.blogspot.com/2009/04/offline-update-ubuntu.html jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/2010/06/howto-installing-ubuntu-packages.html | 08:07 |
| BlackVenom | is there such a version in the ubuntu repo? | 08:07 |
| slacko10622 | Ben64, it refuses to connect to my 3G internet (wireless driver won't compile). I need to use my other linux/windows PC to download them. | 08:08 |
| slacko10622 | There needs to be a web portal to download packages for a base installation. (hint hint) | 08:09 |
| bigtime | foo357: something that needs updating depends on KDE packages. Firefox doesn't depend on any KDE packages. Its definitely a repository error. | 08:09 |
| slacko10622 | cfhowlett: Will synaptic work, I don't have X server.. That's what i'm trying to download (and a desktop envirnment) for my ubuntu server offline PC. | 08:11 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: why not install the desktop version then? | 08:11 |
| foo357 | bigtime: Yes, I think that my particular internet connection has an issue with how (some) repos work. | 08:11 |
| === david__ is now known as th3_mol3 | ||
| slacko10622 | Ben64, well the PC is a stratus ftServer (a real server) that's why I want ubuntu server. | 08:12 |
| bubbasaures | foo357, You have to be really careful updating/upgrading with errors in the update, as well as partial upgrades. | 08:12 |
| bubbasaures | fixing both first is the issue before any upgrade | 08:13 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: if you're going to install a desktop environment, then whats the point of having server | 08:13 |
| slacko10622 | Ben64 I use the server offline as a desktop PC for now, but i want the full server installation for future use. | 08:14 |
| Blaster | What's the most painless way to setup a simple VPN on Ubuntu? | 08:14 |
| Blaster | A PPTP one. | 08:14 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: the difference between server and desktop is the desktop environment, therefore, install desktop. you'll have a lot easier of a time that way, your internet might work ootb | 08:15 |
| bigtime | foo357: /etc/apt/sources.list what's in that file | 08:15 |
| slacko10622 | Ben64, yeah i might be forced to use a desktop ubuntu if i can't find an easy way to download packages on a non-ubuntu PC. Offline installation is ubuntu's weakness as it relies too much on cloud based package management. | 08:16 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: internet access is ubiquitous now, its really not necessary, nor is it easy to manage dependencies offline, its not a requested feature and not needed at all | 08:17 |
| foo357 | slacko10622: I've done some of that stuff, have you heard of keryx? http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/09/keryx-offline-package-installation-made-easy-in-ubuntu | 08:18 |
| slacko10622 | cloud based installation is not suitable for limited 3g data plans. | 08:18 |
| slacko10622 | I need to use a windows or puppy linux PC to download all the required packages..how hard is that? | 08:18 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: its not cloud based installation, you boot the cd, and install | 08:19 |
| foo357 | bigtime: http://pastebin.com/Sa9C8Td0 ... right now I've set the repo mirror http://ftp.uni-bayreuth.de/linux/ubuntu/ubuntu/ | 08:20 |
| slacko10622 | No, Ubuntu is essentially a cloud operating system by default. (therein is the weakness). I should be able to use a windows PC (using public internet access) to download all the ubuntu packages because my home 3g plan is too limited/expensive to download. | 08:20 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: incorrect. not cloud operating system at all. | 08:21 |

| BlackVenom | Bonjour folks | 08:27 |
| BlackVenom | I’m running Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 64 bit and I’ve just installed lftp. My issues is that I get the error “Fatal error: gnutls_handshake: A TLS fatal alert has been received”. From google, I believe this means I need a version of lftp that was compiled with openssl but this is where I have hit a wall. Can anyone help? | 08:27 |
| bubbasaures | Flugz, This on the desktop of the original install? | 08:28 |
| foo357 | thank you bigtime for your extraordinary enthusiastically support, I think I know what the problem is now and I'll be able to solve it :) | 08:28 |
| bigtime | foo357: all the FTP mirrors should only end with ONE ubuntu not /ubuntu/ubuntu/ | 08:29 |
| slacko10622 | BlackVenom: In worst case scenario, I compile my own version from source code. That way i make sure everything is enabled/working properly. | 08:30 |
| slacko10622 | During the ./configure process you enable everything you need for compiling. | 08:30 |
| Flugz | bubbasaures: I'm not exactly sure what you mean | 08:30 |
| BlackVenom | Never done any compiling from source slacko10622 | 08:31 |
| bubbasaures | Flugz, Have you added and desktops, like lubuntu unity xubuntu kubuntu the gnome shell or fallback, and what was the desktop when you installed 12.04. | 08:32 |
| bubbasaures | any* | 08:32 |
| slacko10622 | BlackVenom...it's fairly easy once you install the build environment. Source code has instructions in the readme and install files that explain what to do. | 08:32 |
| Flugz | bubbasaures: no, only the original install with unity | 08:32 |
| BlackVenom | I'll dive in and have a look | 08:32 |
| BlackVenom | Cheers slacko10622 | 08:32 |
| rockyman | 123 | 08:33 |
| rockyman | 112233 | 08:33 |
| BlackVenom | slacko10622, is there a difference between the .tar.gz or .tar.bz2 | 08:33 |
| bubbasaures | Flugz, Thanks, in the past with the network manager the main install had some control, IE if you were having this problem in a second desktop, you would just go to unity and set it. | 08:33 |
| slacko10622 | BlackVenom...No. makes no difference. | 08:34 |
| BlackVenom | slacko10622, cool thanks | 08:34 |
| Ben64 | !checkinstall | BlackVenom use this too | 08:35 |
| ubottu | BlackVenom use this too: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 08:35 |
| BlackVenom | Cheers Ben64 | 08:36 |
| Ben64 | BlackVenom: should be pretty straightforward, you'll want to uninstall your current lftp, you might need to get a bunch of ssl dev packages and other stuff, make sure the ./configure finds everything you need before you compile | 08:38 |
| slacko10622 | ./configure --help (shows the various options to enable/disable) when you compile. | 08:38 |
| BlackVenom | Just reading the README now slacko10622 & Ben64 | 08:39 |
| BlackVenom | Ben64, so I run make as normal, then run sudo checkinstall instead of sudo make install? | 08:47 |

| EriC^^ | type apt-cache policy linux-image...3.16 one | 10:14 |
| EriC^^ | so we know where it came from | 10:15 |
| EriC^^ | that's a utopic kernel i think | 10:15 |
| cristian_c | ikonia, what commands can I try to find the reason? | 10:15 |
| ikonia | cristian_c: what is the EXACT command you are using to enter the home directory | 10:15 |
| cristian_c | ikonia, for example: cd /home/cristian or cd /home, or ls /home, or ls /home/cristian | 10:16 |
| gbellinoz | @EriC^^: Output from apt-cache policy for my kernels is above. Is your linux-image...3.16 supposed to be a regex? | 10:16 |
| EriC^^ | gbellinoz: no i mean take one of the packages from apt-cache search and apt-cache policy the package | 10:16 |
| gbellinoz | sources.list.d just has google stuff. | 10:17 |
| gbellinoz | Ah. | 10:17 |
| EriC^^ | ( a 3.16 one ) | 10:17 |
| Ben64 | it looks like there are still PAE kernels in 14.04, could try one of those, but since theres some unknown kernel running, i'd be hesitant to suggest that in the case it renders the computer unbootable | 10:17 |
| Ben64 | !info linux-image-generic-pae trusty | 10:18 |
| gbellinoz | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9783851/ | 10:18 |

| gbellinoz | An 'unknown' kernel? Nothing custom on this system. Would've been a ... hmm... 13.10 system before I do_release_upgraded it? Maybe earlier. | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | unknown being that apt doesn't know where its from | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | 3.2.0-67-generic-pae actually appears to be from precise | 10:20 |

| EriC^^ | gbellinoz: i guess this is a pae thing? | 10:20 |
| Ben64 | that would upgrade kernels though | 10:20 |

| gbellinoz | If I brick it I'm going to have to yell instructions over the phone. | 10:22 |
| gbellinoz | So why aren't kernel updates shown by apt/aptitude? | 10:23 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: i'd install linux-image-generic-pae, but make sure you can get into grub and boot the previous one if it doesn't work | 10:23 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: they are | 10:23 |
| gbellinoz | It's not recommending upgrades... | 10:23 |
| gbellinoz | But I see linux-image-generic-pae is at 3.13.0.44.51. Is that a good bet? | 10:24 |
| Ben64 | yep, because of the unknown kernel stuff i mentioned previously | 10:24 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: best option i see | 10:24 |
| gbellinoz | So if the policy says XXX that means apt/aptitude won't recommend a kernel update? | 10:25 |
| Ben64 | xxx? | 10:25 |
| basichash_ | can you guys help me burn the mini.iso to my SD card holder / usb? | 10:25 |
| gbellinoz | I'm a bit dazed, so I forgot what apt-cache policy showed you that tipped you off. | 10:25 |
| basichash_ | I tried with unetbootin but it didn't seem to work | 10:25 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: more what it didn't show, where it got the package from | 10:25 |
| gbellinoz | Ah... | 10:26 |
| gbellinoz | Let me compare the result from the two linux images so I learn something here... | 10:26 |
| basichash_ | is | 10:26 |
| basichash_ | damn! | 10:27 |
| gbellinoz | Ah, so the Version table that doesn't have any http: lines means that the kernel came from who-knows-where, so the system plays it safe (both do_release_upgrade and aptitude) and doesn't try to upgrade it. Ever. | 10:27 |
| ikonia | cristian_c: is /home on a seperate partition or not | 10:27 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: its a bit more complicated than that, but sure :) | 10:28 |

| basichash_ | hello? | 10:28 |
| gbellinoz | Ben64: Where'd you learn up on all this so I can understand a bit better? I've not had this happen before. Like I said, completely vanilla system, so something got confused somewhere... maybe too big a release_upgrade jump. | 10:29 |

| gbellinoz | I've done a lot of poking/messing around too, just not come across this. Life short :) Thanks tonnes for the help. I'm going to update the kernel and see how we go. Hoping there's not a lot of over-the-phone debugging in my future. | 10:30 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: your situation is a bit weird, might have had some weird kernel stuff going on in 12.04 and it carried over to now. what you'd want is a kernel metapackage, such as "linux-image-generic-pae" so that when a new version comes out, it points to the new one and gets upgraded | 10:31 |

| gbellinoz | Got it. So anything worrisome about the fact that aptitude shows 3.13.0-44 as the latest generic package, but the apt search showed 3.13.0.44? | 10:32 |
| basichash_ | i'm not even sure i'm still connected to irc tbh | 10:32 |
| basichash_ | if you guys can see my messages can you let me know? | 10:32 |
| ablest1980 | we do | 10:32 |
| basichash_ | ok thanks | 10:32 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: 3.13.0.44 = 3.13.0-44 don't worry | 10:33 |
| basichash_ | basically i'm trying to make a bootable usb, but i don't think i'm doing it right | 10:33 |
| basichash_ | does anyone know the proper procedure here? | 10:33 |
| basichash_ | doing this on debian btw | 10:33 |
| mulga_ | basichash_: are you using unetbootin or simmilar? | 10:33 |
| gbellinoz | Oh my. I must be tired. I thought those were two different numbers. What I meant to say is the apt-cache search showed linux-image-3.16.0-29 | 10:34 |
| basichash_ | mulga_: i tried with unetbootin in, but it didn't seem to work, so i thought maybe a dd command would be more effective | 10:34 |
| mulga_ | and you want to make a bootable/live usb of Deb? | 10:34 |
| basichash_ | mulga_: of ubuntu | 10:34 |
| basichash_ | but i'm on a debian based system | 10:34 |
| Ben64 | gbellinoz: should be fine | 10:34 |
| Ben64 | basichash_: the mini iso? | 10:34 |
| basichash_ | Ben64: yep | 10:35 |
| mulga_ | hmm, i've never had a prob with unetbootin for deb/ ubuntu. do you have the iso on a local disk? | 10:35 |
| basichash_ | mulga_: yeah | 10:35 |
| gbellinoz | Ben64: But why an older one showing in aptitude? | 10:35 |
| basichash_ | i'm using tails OS, and also my usb is a SD card usb adapter | 10:35 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: i have had problems with unetbootin , but only when building an usb image for my macs . | 10:35 |
| tomodachi | usually use dd then | 10:35 |
| basichash_ | tomodachi: do you know the dd command? i've forgotten it | 10:35 |
| xtpeeps | Nindustries: I just thought whether it's because your SSD didn't mount~ | 10:36 |
| mulga_ | did unetbootin give error, or did the media fail to boot? | 10:36 |
| mulga_ | basichash_: ^ | 10:36 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: dd if=/dev/yoursourceDevice of=/dev/yourdestUSBdevice bs=1024 | 10:37 |
| basichash_ | mulga_: media failed to boot, don't recall seeing any errors from unetbootin | 10:37 |
| basichash_ | tomodachi: thanks, do i need to do any configuration before/after? | 10:37 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: nope | 10:37 |
| basichash_ | not set boot flag? | 10:37 |
| tomodachi | just pick the right source / destination device so you dont break your harddrive | 10:37 |
| mulga_ | nice | 10:37 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: no , it reads of everything with dd | 10:38 |
| Ben65 | basichash_: that will destroy everything on your usb btw | 10:38 |
| basichash_ | tomodachi: er sourceDevice is the path of the .iso on my local drive right? | 10:38 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: yup | 10:39 |
| basichash_ | e.g. dd if=/home/user/mini.iso of=/dev/sdc? | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | use dd to write the image directly to the usb, losing all data on the usb in the process | 10:39 |
| tomodachi | and destination is the usb device | 10:39 |
| tomodachi | if you pick the wrong one , you will overwrite your hardrive with a copy of the iso | 10:39 |
| basichash_ | tomodachi: should it be sdc or sdc1? | 10:39 |
| tomodachi | basichash_: sdc | 10:40 |
| basichash_ | ok, i'll give it a shot | 10:40 |
| inerkick | i installed lxde in ubuntu 14.04, which had mate already. But during login i can't see it | 10:40 |
| inerkick | why is that | 10:40 |
| tomodachi | sdc1 will dissapear (since the partitiontable will be overwritten) | 10:40 |
| slacko10622 | i don't think dd will work to transfer iso images to usb. (I tried it before). You'll need something like usbcreator or usbcreator-gtk in debian | 10:40 |
| basichash_ | tomodachi, slacko10622: really? | 10:41 |
| Ben64 | slacko10622: dd does work | 10:41 |
| slacko10622 | good luck then | 10:41 |
| OerHeks | slacko10622, it does work | 10:41 |
| Ben64 | ubuntu images work for sure, doesn't work for all isos | 10:41 |
| tomodachi | slacko10622: basichash_ it works | 10:41 |
| inerkick | Desktop manager is inactive too it says | 10:41 |
| slacko10622 | ok, maybe i had a problematic iso.. | 10:41 |

| akis | hi all. could someone advise me if it is possible to undelete/restore a deleted file from an encrypted directory using a restoration program ie testdisk/photorec or does encryption prohibits the restoration of deleted file or maybe encryption deletes permanently the file? | 11:36 |
| sabotender | aww, but it is not telling me anything, lol | 11:36 |
| sabotender | it just gives me general information about it :-P | 11:36 |
| cfhowlett | akis, testdisk/photorec are the tools to try | 11:36 |
| k1l_ | Blaster: it is the network icon thingy. i dont know where gnome hides it. on every other desktop its wifi symbol or a network symbol (2 crts) in the system tray area | 11:36 |
| Blaster | My machine doesn't have it... | 11:37 |
| cristian_c | ikonia, I don't know if you've found how to solve, but searching I've found a command that makes the trick | 11:37 |
| EriC^^ | Blaster: try sudo service network-manager restart if you want to restart it | 11:37 |
| OerHeks | akis on an Encrypted directory ? no, gone is gone | 11:37 |

| k1l_ | Blaster: no. a standard ubuntu desktop includes networkmanager | 11:38 |

I switched the computer off for a few days and now I'm trying to troubleshoot but I can't seem to reproduce the error, while before it would happen automatically every 10-20 minutes. Any ideas? | 11:39 |
| akis | cfhowlett: i tried photorec already but although recovers files from the non encrypted disk it doesn't recover anything from my encrypted dir. | 11:39 |
| jpds | basichash: Likely that they have some internal proxy you have to pass HTTP traffic through. | 11:39 |
| k1l_ | ok, it could have ruined file permissions when you run everything with sudo | 11:40 |
| Blaster | k1l, me? | 11:40 |
| OerHeks | basichash, this channel is not about howto bypass your uni network. | 11:40 |

| cfhowlett | akis I can't advise further - someone with more experience can. perhaps photorec channel knows more?? | 11:40 |

| microchasm | Earlo: then it'll run when you log in | 11:44 |
| akis | OerHeks: i thought that encryption just protected the encrypted dir as far as it is not accessible with the password for the user. but i didn't know that any file's deletion is permanent and not recoverable. | 11:44 |
| cfhowlett | akis, I'd suspect that's a safety feature. | 11:44 |
| microchasm | Earlo: rc.local commands are executed as root. so it depends on what you want | 11:45 |
| k1l_ | Blaster: this is what it looks like on a standard ubuntu https://www.ipvanish.com/visualguides/OpenVPN/Ubuntu/OpenVPN-Ubuntu-11.jpg | 11:45 |

| Blaster | k1l_ this is the step that lost me, “Install Network Manager Applet through the Add/Remove in the Ubuntu menu.”... | 11:46 |

| Blaster | Such a menu is not visible in 14.10. | 11:47 |
| Blaster | I did apt-get install network-manager though. | 11:47 |
| k1l_ | Blaster: that depends on the desktop you run. gnome-shell is very very very strict on not running the stuff the way other desktops do it | 11:48 |
| akis | EriC^^: i read that before i logged here but i am not sure i understood the procedure. | 11:48 |
| k1l_ | Blaster: install network-manager-gnome | 11:48 |

| EriC^^ | akis: i've no idea about the issue at hand, what i can say is that first and foremost you should image the hard disk, as every write is a potential loss of data | 11:49 |
| EriC^^ | akis: i'm not entirely sure, but it appears that he used testdisk on the image file of the hdd, and extracted a bunch of encrypted files, i guess the next step would be to decrypt them all and see which one is your file | 11:51 |
| microchasm | sabotender: install php5-fpm or php-fpm first | 11:53 |
| sabotender | microchasm: too late, I've already installed php-pear | 11:54 |
| sabotender | do I have to start over? | 11:55 |
| sabotender | ? | 11:56 |

| minimec | sabotender: Yeah... The 'ssh' solution is easier... ;) | 12:24 |
| alumn | i put my dick inside my ps4 | 12:25 |
| akis | ok. thanks both of you. i will try to find any relevant documentation | 12:25 |
| sabotender | what do you mean? the closest I found was method 2 here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/304017/how-to-set-up-remote-desktop-sharing-through-ssh | 12:25 |
| clappingclapper | I am attempting to go against my master! | 12:26 |
| clappingclapper | I will download ubuntu, nothing shall stop me | 12:26 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: x forwarding is not the same thing as vnc and is not a replacement or similar really at all. method 2 listed there is a secure way of using vnc | 12:26 |
| clappingclapper | these sysadmins are pathetic. | 12:26 |
| cfhowlett | clappingclapper, stop it | 12:26 |
| alumn | you dont have a master clappingclapper | 12:27 |
| clappingclapper | alumn: you're right, i dont. | 12:27 |
| cfhowlett | clappingclapper, if you need support, ask the question. otherwise #ubuntu-offtopic for such discussions | 12:27 |
| sabotender | Ben64: hmm my terminology is incorrect sometimes. I really need to use vnc not remote desktop. | 12:28 |
| minimec | sabotender: You install 'openssh-server' on the host, and at least 'openssh-client' on the remote computer. Then you use 'ssh user@host -X' in a terminal to login from the remote computer to the host. That's all... Afterwards you can start like 'gedit' from that 'host-terminal'... | 12:28 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: vnc is remote desktop | 12:28 |
| Ben64 | minimec: that is not the same thing at all | 12:28 |
| alumn | and you arent going to have any one clapping clapper | 12:28 |
| sabotender | then I'm confused. why are they not the same, though the are? | 12:29 |
| cfhowlett | !behelpful | alumn please | 12:29 |
| ubottu | alumn please: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 12:29 |
| minimec | Ben64: I know, but he needs a simple way to have a GUI for the host.... | 12:29 |
| Ben64 | minimec: thats not what he asked for, he wants remote desktop | 12:29 |
| jose__ | HOLA A TODOS | 12:29 |
| alumn | sabotender shut up i trying to talk clapping clapper | 12:29 |
| alumn | holaaaa josee | 12:30 |
| sabotender | minimec: I need the GUI | 12:30 |
| Ben64 | alumn: then go talk in #ubuntu-offtopic and leave this channel for actual support | 12:30 |
| alumn | al fin un español | 12:30 |
| * sabotender eyes alumn | 12:30 | |
| Ben64 | sabotender: so use method #2, run a vnc server - vino, or one of the many others in the repository, and connect via ssh tunnel | 12:30 |
| alumn | ben64 im not interesting in your opinion | 12:31 |
| minimec | Ben64: "13:30 sabotender : minimec: I need the GUI" That's why O am talking about alternatives... ;) | 12:31 |
| cfhowlett | !guidelines | alumn, it's not opinion, it's the guidelines and yes, they apply to you, too. | 12:31 |
| ubottu | alumn, it's not opinion, it's the guidelines and yes, they apply to you, too.: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 12:31 |
| Ben64 | minimec: and x forwarding is not the same as remote desktop, stop suggesting it | 12:31 |
| Ben64 | not to mention it's MUCH slower than vnc | 12:32 |
| sabotender | xopendisplay(":0") failed. | 12:33 |
| sabotender | no protocol specified | 12:33 |
| minimec | Ben64: Don't see your problem. I gave him a link for a VNC install for 14.04 and suggested an alternative solution via ssh.... | 12:33 |
| Ben64 | minimec: an alternative that is horribly slow, even on 100mbit, and doesn't provide a "remote desktop", which is what was originally asked for | 12:34 |
| PCatinean | Hey guys, how does one install lamp on a ubuntu server without graphical interface? | 12:35 |
| PCatinean | Or does taskel work there as well? | 12:35 |
| PCatinean | !lamp | 12:35 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 12:35 |
| k1l | PCatinean: you can install the packages on your own. see the docs you just linked yourself | 12:35 |
| sabotender | how can i check to make sure that an xserver is running? | 12:37 |
| drg24 | Hi | 12:38 |
| k1l | sabotender: see if lightdm is started | 12:38 |
| drg24 | I'm having an issue in Ubuntu 14.10 where whenever I resize a window the animation lags honorificly | 12:39 |
| sabotender | okay, how do I do that? | 12:39 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: sudo service lightdm status | 12:39 |
| minimec | sabotender: 'pidof lightdm' in a terminal | 12:40 |
| sabotender | lighted start/running, process 2131 | 12:40 |
| sabotender | lightdm* sorry, spell corrector getting in the way | 12:41 |
| sabotender | I tried that link by the way, and it cannot find the display | 12:42 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: you should set up remote desktop using vino on the computer | 12:43 |
| sabotender | Ben64: all the examples I've seen require the use of a monitor connected to the server, which is not possible | 12:44 |
| sabotender | I would need to do this 100% via ssh session at command line | 12:44 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: why is it not possible? and if lightdm is running you must have installed the desktop version? | 12:45 |
| sabotender | I am sure I can install whatever I want via apt-get, however, configuring and accessing what I need to get it set up would need to be done at the command line, which I am not sure how to do | 12:46 |
| sabotender | it seems that in order to get it set up, you need the GUI, but I am trying to set it up to get access to the GUI | 12:47 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: that answered zero of my two questions | 12:47 |
| sabotender | its quite the paradox | 12:47 |
| sabotender | I am not trying to be difficult. The simple answer is that I do not know how to do any of this via the command line | 12:48 |
| === pvoigt_ is now known as pvoigt | ||
| Ben64 | sabotender: you should re-read my two questions, because you're nowhere near what I asked | 12:48 |
| sabotender | I am sorry, but I do not understand the questions. I don't even know what lightdm is, I also do not know the difference between a 'desktop' version and the like | 12:49 |
| Ben64 | sabotender: 1. why can't you hook up a monitor? You must have had a monitor to install. 2. You installed the desktop version of Ubuntu, using a monitor. Why do that if you were going to throw it away and make it a "server"? 3. Why do you need a GUI for a server? | 12:51 |
| Shenglin | sfsf | 12:51 |
| sabotender | I did not. I flashed linux to a microSD using a windows tool. The connector requires a microHDMI cable which I do not own. I do not know how to set up the network so that it will use a static IP, it is so much easier to work with that using the GUI instead of fooling around with configuration files where I have absolutely no idea what I am doing and basically bungling around until I happen to get it right | 12:53 |
| k1l | sabotender: ok, so what are you trying to do there at all? what is the endgoal? | 12:53 |
| === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa | ||
| k1l | sabotender: so this is a raspberry pi? | 12:54 |

| sabotender | k1l: eww, I've boycotted raspberry pi's. | 12:54 |
| sabotender | I'd rather slit my wrists. | 12:54 |
| k1l | sabotender: so what device is this? | 12:54 |
| sabotender | Odroid XU3-lite | 12:55 |
| sabotender | running Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS | 12:55 |
| k1l | sabotender: backgroundinformation: some times there are heavily changed images to be used on the ARM devices so the general ubuntu way doesnt work like it works on a regular desktop device. | 12:56 |
| k1l | so where is the issue now? | 12:57 |
| sabotender | yeah I reckoned as much, however, I don't think that this version is molested too much. The only big difference is that special modes are provided for the integrated mali video | 12:57 |
| k1l | sabotender: and your server stuff is meant to be manged by "server ways" which means edit text-files or parameters on the commands itself. | 12:58 |
| ElysiumNet | is there a way to not make the grub-pc prompt come up when executing an install script? | 12:58 |
| === Shiftos_ is now known as Shiftos | ||
| usr_1741 | hey | 12:59 |
| sabotender | k1l: maybe. but this is the desktop version of linux, I think...I will just buy the hdmi cable from amazon.com so I can have my much needed GUI | 13:00 |
| usr_1741 | ddos 81.23.104.1 | 13:01 |
| k1l | sabotender: you can set the network in the /etc/network/interfaces to static one. then you can use ssh to do all the stuff | 13:01 |
| k1l | usr_1741: no, this is the totally wrong irc netowrk for such illegal stuff. | 13:01 |
| sabotender | I can only do *some* things via command line. I am by no means a professional, and I doubt I ever would be. | 13:01 |
| usr_1741 | just a joke mate | 13:01 |
| usr_1741 | tried if here is a "bad word protection" | 13:01 |
| cfhowlett | !behelpful | usr_1741, | 13:01 |
| ubottu | usr_1741,: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 13:01 |
| sabotender | k1l: I tried that, the file is completely commented out save for a single line | 13:02 |
| k1l | sabotender: that is not rocketscience. every one started as beginner. just start with something and be willing to read some and learn somthing. | 13:02 |
| sabotender | apparently from the documentation which was sent to me: https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration it is not supposed to be commented out | 13:03 |
| sabotender | so if that file is commented out, how am I able to connect remotely via SSH? | 13:03 |
| k1l | sabotender: if you got a desktop running there the network interfaces is not used. but if you put the stuff into that file its used | 13:04 |
| k1l | sabotender: just mount the microsd and change the file on there. then put it into the device and when booting the interfaces is used | 13:04 |
| * k1l is away now for some time | 13:05 | |
| sabotender | k1l: I have no problems using nano (my preferred editor) | 13:05 |
| sabotender | oh, gone away :-P | 13:05 |
| sabotender | the only thing that is not commented out is "source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d" | 13:07 |
| polpotter | What happens if you try to dd a usb when it has two partitions? | 13:08 |
| wonderworld | polpotter: depends on the target of your dd | 13:08 |
| gavimobile | does the latest live version of ubuntu have wifi support? | 13:08 |
| wonderworld | polpotter: if you dd to the device, it will overwrite the partition table | 13:09 |
| wonderworld | if you dd to a partition, it will fill up the partition with your source data | 13:10 |
| Rory | polpotter: You can still dd to it, you will overwrite the partition table | 13:10 |
| Rory | polpotter: I'll clarify: if you were to dd to /dev/sdc you would overwrite that drive's partition table. if you were to dd to /dev/sdc1 you would be writing data to the partition, and the partition table would remain intact | 13:10 |
| Rory | polpotter: If you're unsure, you should share any command you're about to run here first | 13:11 |
| zamba | hi! i have some colleagues sitting in a remote area with very limited network connectivity (we're talking around 500-600 kbps).. i want to create VoD solution for them that transcodes on the fly.. what can you suggest for this? | 13:11 |
| Rory | zamba: ...youtube? | 13:11 |
| zamba | Rory: eh.. from local media | 13:11 |
| zamba | i was thinking about the plex media server? | 13:11 |
| polpotter | wonderworld, Rory: hmm i dd'd my usb with the ubuntu 14.04 .iso, the usage is Filesystem, the Partition Type is Empty, Partition Flags is bootable, the Type is ISO 9660, is that all right? | 13:12 |
| Rory | zamba: Something like Mediatomb | 13:12 |
| zamba | Rory: does that work over WAN? | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | polpotter, partition type = empty? not msdos/fat32?? | 13:12 |
| Rory | polpotter: you dd directly to the device? | 13:12 |
| wonderworld | polpotter: what are you trying to do? what is your goal? | 13:12 |
| Rory | zamba: Yes I don't see why it wouldn't as long as you opened up your firewall to allow connections from the Internet? | 13:12 |
| polpotter | cfhowlett: no, i'd formatted to ext4 initially then dd | 13:12 |
| polpotter | Rory: yeah | 13:13 |
| zamba | Rory: i just read upnp | 13:13 |
| polpotter | wonderworld: I'm trying to put ubuntu 14.04 on a usb | 13:13 |
| cfhowlett | polpotter, boot usb is fat32/msdos not ext4 | 13:13 |
| polpotter | ah | 13:13 |
| polpotter | ok thanks | 13:13 |
| Rory | polpotter: Take a look at info here http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu | 13:13 |
| wonderworld | polpotter: most easy way would be to use usbcreator-gtk | 13:14 |
| polpotter | i thought dd changed all that info anyway | 13:14 |
| === Guest78582 is now known as daynaskully | ||
| wonderworld | otherwise (if you usb drive has no importantn data) -> dd if=/home/user/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sd[your usb drive] | 13:14 |
| cfhowlett | polpotter, dd will copy the files reliably but does nothing to the target media | 13:14 |
| Rory | dd takes data from one file/device and writes it blindly to another | 13:14 |
| wonderworld | dd doesn't copy files | 13:15 |
| wonderworld | it copies blocks | 13:15 |
| sabotender | well, I tried the headless method, without a GUI but it seems that I need it | 13:15 |
| * cfhowlett thinks it sounds so much more intelligent when Rory explains it ... | 13:15 | |
| polpotter | so i need to change the flag to bootable after dd is finished? | 13:15 |
| Rory | sabotender: dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdc will work | 13:15 |
| Rory | sabotender: oh sorry wrong person | 13:15 |
| * sabotender chuckles politely | 13:16 | |
| tomodachi | polpotter: no you dont | 13:16 |
| tomodachi | polpotter: what you are doing is taking an already bootable "image" of something and putting it onto a new device | 13:16 |
| tomodachi | since its an exact copy it already containts the filesystem files AND the bootable flag | 13:17 |
| sabotender | i'm going to put this server away, and start it back up when my micro HDMI cable arrives in the post. | 13:17 |
| polpotter | tomodachi: right so this is what i've done. I formatted the usb (with partitioning set as Master Boot Record), removed all partitions and then created a new FAT partition, then set the flag to bootable. now i'm running dd. should that work? | 13:18 |
| Rory | polpotter: It doesn't matter what you did with partitions and things, because you're about to dd the ubuntu image over the top of it all | 13:19 |
| polpotter | Rory: ok, cheers | 13:19 |
| tomodachi | yes but you did a couple of pointless steps | 13:20 |

| nickander | mfoo: on 12.04? | 15:23 |
| mfoo | nickander, yes, but the key is for a private repository - although other than the key being different it's configured identically to another set of VMs we run (puppet handled it) | 15:23 |

| mfoo | this is a 12.04 server and it appears consistently with apt-get update. The repo it's complaining about is my own though, and I don't see anything wrong with the key | 15:25 |

| fedorafan | other question | 15:48 |
| santims | tomodachi: i didnt know which end this was on but i figured someone here might have run across this issue. I'll hit up some vmware channels. thanks! | 15:48 |
| fedorafan | apt-get I can just search for package right | 15:48 |
| brigada | wafflejock: yes tried on mozilla and thunderbird, same problem on both | 15:48 |
| fedorafan | lol you are right take a look into the manpages :) | 15:48 |
| brigada | OerHeks: yes wireless | 15:48 |
| tomodachi | maliboy: yes | 15:48 |
| fedorafan | where could I just ask for old release | 15:49 |
| OerHeks | brigada, sounds like dropping wireless, not much we can do about that, try to point the antenna in a better position | 15:49 |
| tokam | http://pastebin.com/b4SPU6j0 | 15:50 |
| OerHeks | fedorafan, again: old-releases are just for upgrading when normal upgrade is not possible | 15:50 |
| fedorafan | its fine | 15:50 |
| tokam | Can you please help me to fix that OpenGL error? | 15:50 |
| fedorafan | but is there just a room to ask for OerHeks | 15:50 |

| hillary | am guided | 15:52 |
| brigada | OerHeks: thanks, but can it be antenna position? | 15:52 |
| maliboy | tomodachi, cannot find the gui | 15:53 |
| tomodachi | maliboy: i never said there was any (you might have to install it i dont know , i just use the command line) | 15:54 |
| tomodachi | maliboy: try asking someone else or googling it, you are not the first to ask it surely | 15:54 |
| maliboy | tomodachi, ok thanks | 15:55 |

| fwaokda_ | i have an application that i installed through the software center and also from a tar package... it's installed twice. is there a way to remove both from my system altogether? | 16:01 |
| fwaokda_ | so i can then reinstall from scratch? | 16:01 |
| fedorafan | hmm how just to search for packages in the sources | 16:01 |
| fedorafan | apt-get seems not to have that possibility right | 16:02 |
| tomodachi | fwaokda_: yes but how and where the source package installed depends on your make script | 16:02 |
| fwaokda_ | fedorafan, you might be looking for sudo apt-cache search <package name> | 16:02 |
| tomodachi | fwaokda_: if it does not have an uninstall feature you have to clean it manually | 16:02 |
| fedorafan | thanks | 16:02 |

| putti | daftykins, the same problem was with the out of the box kernel. | 17:12 |
| genericum | MonkeyDust: 97% fully packed by stranger's code :) | 17:12 |
| cfhowlett | mete, grub is normally at /dev/sda. yours is at /dev/sd3 for some reason | 17:12 |
| daftykins | only suggestion, remove all USB devices, removery battery (if possible) and mains power and fresh boot after. | 17:12 |
| daftykins | s/removery/remove/ | 17:12 |
| mete2 | cfhowlett: what do you suggest? I just installed on hdd. I always did this like that | 17:13 |
| putti | daftykins, okay, thanks :) | 17:13 |
| MonkeyDust | genericum define "stranger's code" | 17:14 |
| cfhowlett | I"m guessing before you installed ubuntu, you had windows booting from the 125 gb drive? ssd? | 17:14 |
| genericum | monkeyDust: not that i've written 577 megs of code yet :) | 17:14 |
| MonkeyDust | genericum use this to get an idea of what's taking the most space du -h -d 1 | 17:15 |
| mete2 | I first installed windows 8.1 on ssd | 17:15 |
| mete2 | Then installed ubuntu on hdd | 17:15 |
| cfhowlett | mete, on the 128 GB? | 17:15 |
| mete2 | cfhowlett: yes on 128gb ssd there is windows. I got machine as freedos | 17:16 |
| dunpeal | Hi. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04.1. When I type "ffmpeg" at the CLI, I don't get a recommended package to install. Why? | 17:17 |
| cfhowlett | mete2, reinstall grub2 to the ssd | 17:17 |
| cfhowlett | dunpeal, ffmpeg is deprecated until 15.04 use avconv | 17:17 |
| dunpeal | cfhowlett: how closely compatible is avconv with ffmpeg? | 17:18 |
| MonkeyDust | genericum in this line, change 500M to whatever size you want find / -size +500M -exec ls -lh {} \; 2>/dev/null | 17:18 |
| cfhowlett | dunpeal, it's actually a fork of ffmpeg. same command protocols but "avconv" instead of ffmpeg | 17:18 |
| cfhowlett | dunpeal, and the package is libav-tools | 17:18 |
| === xanthine_ is now known as xanthine | ||
| dunpeal | cfhowlett: thanks, last question: if avconv is better, how come 15.04 is switching back to ffmpeg? | 17:19 |
| cfhowlett | dunpeal, the fork happened due to personality/politics at ffmpeg HQ. Now that they've kissed and made up, ffmpeg will be back. | 17:20 |
| xanthine | hi i'm running xubuntu and i was wondering how i can set applications to run at boot? | 17:20 |
| genericum | well actually /usr/src/linux is only bout one gig :) | 17:20 |
| genericum | but with the default ubuntu .config it was 5 | 17:20 |
| cfhowlett | xanthine, settings > session & startup > application autostart | 17:20 |
| dunpeal | cfhowlett: I see, thanks! | 17:21 |
| bubbasaures | xanthine, For regular apps there is a startup applications, what is it you want running? | 17:21 |
| mete2 | cfhowlett: like grub install /dev/sdb | 17:21 |
| cfhowlett | mete2, note: I've never installed to a multi HDD system like your but ... yeah | 17:22 |
| MonkeyDust | genericum keep it in the channel please, unrequested PM is impolite | 17:22 |
| mete2 | cfhowlett: there is just windows on ssd. is it a right way? | 17:22 |
| cfhowlett | mete2, was the 1 TB drive part of your system when you bought it? | 17:23 |
| mete2 | yes | 17:23 |
| mete2 | 1TB + 120 SSD | 17:24 |
| xanthine | i'd like hexchat and steam to run at startup | 17:24 |
| cfhowlett | mete, OK then/ /dev/sdb was your original bootloader location. put grub2 there | 17:24 |
| xanthine | what folder do i navigate to to find the executable | 17:24 |
| cfhowlett | xanthine, /usr/bin | 17:25 |
| xanthine | ty | 17:26 |
| MonkeyDust | xanthine also look in /usr/share/applications/ | 17:26 |
| mete | cfhowlett: do we need to remove any other thing? I did what you said. but I cannot see win8 just ubuntu seems | 17:27 |
| xanthine | ok, i found hexchat in usr/bin | 17:27 |
| cfhowlett | mete, as I said, no experience with your configuration. also: uefi does play a part. ask again in channel, someone will know | 17:27 |

| xanthine | also something unrelated, dropbox is refusing to run | 17:28 |
| bubbasaures | xanthine, how did you install dropbox, it has it's own way? | 17:29 |
| xanthine | like it set itself to sync at startup but now it isn't running and when i click the icon nothing happens and nothing appears to happen in task manager | 17:29 |

| bubbasaures | mete2, So read carefully, and there is a forum link with it, you want windows boot loader in that HD, not grub, just grub in the HD mbr with ubuntu. http://pastebin.com/mpZQURms | 17:40 |

| bubbasaures | mete2, THe one command if you want grub still is my point, you want it on the ubuntu HD, but not the windows, or at least I assume you do. | 17:43 |
| mete2 | bubbasaures: I didnt understand exactly what you mean | 17:44 |

| mete2 | bubbasaures: I just want to ability to use both OS. But they are on different HDD's. Windows will run on SSD. Ubuntu will run on HDD. | 17:46 |
| bubbasaures | mete2, This line in my paste "BootRec.exe /fixmbr (#updates MBR master boot record...do not run if you still want grub)" will install the windows bootloader on the windows HD. THis will allow you to just boot windows, it that HD is read first. Personally I this that is best practice. | 17:46 |

| daftykins | Evil_Eric: fine as-is | 17:56 |
| the8thbit|work | Evil_Eric: Make coffee before you start the installation, not during. It'll go to fast on an SSD to give you time to make it during the installation. | 17:57 |

| nickander | catalase: it's failrly easy if you have ssh enabled to your server, if you're on a windows machine you set up a dynamic port tunnel using Putty on the windows machine through the SSH connection and then in for example Firefox you just set your browser to connect to the configured port as a socks proxy | 18:52 |

| mete | bubbasaures: I just did what you have said :) | 18:58 |
| chand | daftykins, let me try | 18:58 |
| bubbasaures | mete, Ah, yeah you have a msdos setup on a uefi computer, n ot sure what you have done in the bios to acomidate this. | 18:58 |
| mete | bubbasaures: I didnt open bios | 18:59 |

| mete | bubbasaures: I bought that laptop with a freedos today | 19:02 |
| bubbasaures | mete, Cool, in the end you will get all working, just follow help and ask questions if you have an issue. ;) | 19:02 |
| daftykins | hmm nope looks like they're both installed legacy | 19:03 |
| mete2 | Jordan_U: /dev/sdc1:Windows Recovery Environment (loader):Windows:chain | 19:04 |
| Jordan_U | mete2: Great. Please run "sudo update-grub", then pastebin the contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg . | 19:04 |
| Jordan_U | mete2: Though it is a little odd that it things it's "Windows Recovery Environment", rather than "Windows 7" or similar. | 19:05 |
| Rapture | rsyslog question. I have setup a test client and remote server with rsyslog. Ihe remote server is able to receive the messages. I am wonder how to make it so it receives them into its own directory (example: /var/log/client-hostname/) and not /var/log/syslog | 19:05 |
| bubbasaures | Jordan_U, I noticed a missing boot bcd in the bootscript in windows at the start is all and not active, is now, anyway carry on. | 19:05 |
| mete2 | Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9787724/ | 19:06 |
| Jordan_U | mete2: OK. You should get a grub menu at boot now, and it should have an option for "Windows Recovery Environment (loader) (on /dev/sdc1)". If that boots you into a Windows recovery environment, then that probably means that you accidentally deleted your Windows System Partition accidentally at some point. | 19:09 |
| Jordan_U | mete2: If that boots you into your normal Windows install, then please file a bug report against os-prober for misidentifying it :) | 19:09 |
| mete2 | Jordan_U: I can see the files of Windows on my Ubuntu. Everyting is in place. | 19:10 |
| bubbasaures | there is no sdc | 19:10 |
| daftykins | i have a theory - perhaps mete installed Windows to the SSD, but the recovery and boot partition got put on the HDD. on booting ubuntu, the HDD was totally nuked (weird that the HDD only contains logical drives within an extended partition) and left a non-bootable Windows | 19:11 |
| Jordan_U | mete2: Since Windows 7 all Windows installations by default require *two* partitions to boot. The large "C:" partition, and a small "System" partition that holds just files needed by Windows' bootloader. If you deleted the System partition, then you can't boot Windows. | 19:11 |
| bubbasaures | W8 will put stuff on all drives, I would wager it was on the sda and deleted with the ubuntu install | 19:12 |
| mete | Jordan_U: I cant see grub. It says windows error "Missing Operating System" is it related with boot order? | 19:12 |
| Jordan_U | mete: You just rebooted and instead of seeing grub at boot all you saw was "Missing Operating System"? | 19:13 |
| mete | Jordan_U: yes | 19:13 |
| samthewildone | I'm trying to do a screen recording and using simplescreenrecorder. The video comes out perfect but, the audio is terrible ! | 19:14 |

| samthewildone | what is the best audio format for bluetooth headset ? | 19:14 |
| mete | Jordan_U: I need to press f11 and choose TOSHIBA THNS... | 19:14 |

| === Guest65448 is now known as dan2343 | ||
| Jordan_U | mete: OK, so what happens if you chose the Ubuntu HD as your boot device, now that you've run "sudo update-grub" ? | 19:17 |
| === zz_CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob | ||
| mete | Jordan_U: What I did is that I selected manually SSD. Then press esc to see grub menu. And I saw windows recovery. It goes to the usb loader (I wrote Windows 8.1 ISO to flash disk) | 19:17 |
| catalase | daftykins, wonderworld, can the dynamic port ssh tunnel also be used to redirect ALL web traffic | 19:18 |
| catalase | in the same manner as a VPN? | 19:18 |
| daftykins | catalase: no, VPN is an interface level... a SOCKS proxy over SSH is just that, web traffic. | 19:18 |
| lionrouge | hi ! | 19:18 |
| Jordan_U | mete: Ahh, that all makes sense then. You (or someone/something) definitely deleted your Windows System partition, as there is no Windows System Partition on sda. | 19:19 |
| Jordan_U | mete: ##windows might be able to help you re-create it without doing a full re-install of Windows. | 19:19 |
| lionrouge | tell me please why latest caffeine for ubuntu 14.04 still not fixed? | 19:19 |
| catalase | is there any easy way to setup vpn server on ubuntu machine? | 19:19 |
| daftykins | catalase: easy and VPN don't go together. plenty of guides online i'm sure. maybe if you explained more what you're trying to achieve... | 19:20 |
| mete | Jordan_U: The files can be seen on ubuntu. Windows is seems ok but I think it cant find boot record or something like that | 19:20 |
| daftykins | catalase: also if you haven't even tried SSH SOCKS yet you really should, it'll take seconds | 19:20 |
| Jordan_U | mete: No, you are missing an entire partition that Windows needs to boot. Windows is not OK. | 19:20 |
| catalase | daftykins, just completed that. works great in firefox. not so much in btsync. daftykins, trying to sync my work files with my home files | 19:20 |
| Jordan_U | mete: Your Windows installation is broken, completely unbootable, due to the fact that it has no System partition. (Again, the System partition is a small partition, *not* "C:") | 19:21 |
| Krotan | Hiya, hoping to get a recommendation for some software. I use autohotkey on a windows machine and my friend uses Ubuntu. I'm wondering if there's either a way to run AHK in Ubuntu so they can use my pre-existing scripts, or a decent alternative for Ubuntu systems. | 19:22 |
| mete | Jordan_U: I got your point. What do you suggest? | 19:22 |
| daftykins | catalase: not so much? i would think there were two states :D | 19:22 |
| Krotan | mostly just for simple keyboard macros executed via hotkey | 19:22 |
| daftykins | Krotan: which do what? | 19:22 |
| Krotan | automates keystrokes/mouseclicks via hotkey | 19:23 |
| catalase | daftykins, it is not working in btsync lol | 19:23 |
| Krotan | at the most basic level | 19:23 |
| Jordan_U | mete: Either re-install Windows, or ask in ##windows if there is a way to just restore your System Partition. | 19:23 |
| daftykins | catalase: so why doesn't BTSync function natively at the workplace? | 19:23 |
| mete | Jordan_U: Ok I'm asking them | 19:24 |
| catalase | won't find the peers without using relay/tracker servers. since my workplace documents contain confidential patient information, that is unacceptable | 19:24 |
| daftykins | catalase: yeah, for such data you shouldn't even be using BTSync :( | 19:25 |
| daftykins | it's ok for pics of your cat, but that's just not cool. | 19:25 |
| nickander | sounds like a hippa violation waiting to happen | 19:25 |
| Krotan | I'm thinking maybe a virtual machine would be my only option for running the actual windows autohotkey program, but an alternative catered to ubuntu/linux distros would be nice if available. | 19:25 |
| nickander | hipaa* | 19:25 |
| catalase | have not yet used it to sync that information | 19:25 |
| daftykins | good stuff, but it's the wrong tech for sure | 19:25 |
| catalase | i am using a test directory | 19:25 |
| mete | Jordan_U: thanks for your help | 19:26 |
| catalase | daftykins, then what is the proper tech | 19:26 |
| Jordan_U | mete: You're welcome. Good luck, and note that ##windows is a much smaller channel, so you may have to wait a while for a response. | 19:26 |
| daftykins | well you should have it encrypted to begin with - and syncing online? i don't even think that's appropriate given that kind of data. | 19:26 |
| catalase | daftykins, the data is encypted | 19:27 |
| catalase | daftykins, btsync allows for direct peer to peer communication. one can disable the use of tracker/relay servers to facilitate that connection | 19:27 |
| daftykins | yes i know how BTSync works and it's really not to be trusted | 19:28 |
| catalase | then i think setting up a vpn is in order | 19:29 |
| daftykins | why can't you just keep an encrypted storage volume up to date before you leave home? | 19:29 |
| keevitaja | hi, is there a list of ubuntu supported wifi printers? | 19:30 |
| catalase | daftykins, because the nature of my work requires that i have access to all patient documents at all times | 19:30 |

| catalase | and since other staff are updating those documents at all hours, it is important to have the latest document revision | 19:30 |

| tata | copy-paste | 20:05 |
| Jordan_U | tata: Which way you connect is configured on your phone, and some phones only allow MTP (usually because they don't have a separate SD card, and thus can't unmount the storage within android to make it safely avaialble via USBMS). | 20:06 |

| delta9 | bubbasaures, when i clicked the printer icon in the bar across the top it showed me a list of jobs including the attempts i've made but all read as pending | 20:41 |
| OerHeks | natus couldn't find howto start a plugin/extention in this chromium list http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/ not sure it can be done | 20:42 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, Yes i happens, I would just remove the printer this will remove them set up the printer again there, hit the test print to be sure it's working. What is the printer make and model? | 20:42 |
| bubbasaures | it* | 20:42 |
| evernub | i accidentally bought the 3rd edition copy of unix and system admins handbook published sep 3 2000. how outdated is this? should i toss it in the trash? | 20:43 |
| OerHeks | evernub, no, trash it in the waste-paper-bin | 20:43 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, Have you found the printer app? | 20:43 |
| evernub | :( OerHeks | 20:44 |
| natus | OerHeks: OHHH thank you my fried you helped me so much with your link it works now | 20:44 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, how do i do that? and the printer is an hp color laser jet 2320nf MFP | 20:44 |
| Jordan_U | evernub: Good for nostalgia, probably not terribly helpful for managing a modern GNU/Linux system. | 20:44 |
| OerHeks | natus what option is it? | 20:44 |
| MonkeyDust | evernub or sell it to a second hand book shop | 20:44 |
| evernub | ok | 20:44 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, i don't know what you men by printer app | 20:44 |
| evernub | i had a pdf of edition 4 though | 20:44 |
| evernub | have* | 20:44 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, by searching for it it is a application like firefox......etc | 20:44 |

| natus | OerHeks: I did not know the --app-id option wonderful it's --app-id=EXTENSION_ID for me --app-id=oldohccelcbofkfajibmmbghbbjfpngp thank you | 20:45 |
| OerHeks | natus, great,i learned something too, have fun ! | 20:45 |
| evernub | Jordan_U: thanks | 20:45 |
| Jordan_U | evernub: You're welcome. | 20:46 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, Excellent that is where you should of setup the printer to start with, follow the info I gave you. HP also has a nice application that is usable. | 20:46 |
| evernub | i'm more into learning big boy stuff now. puppet, kvm, etc Jordan_U | 20:46 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, so i just click the delete option on the printer? | 20:47 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, there is a plus and minus right? | 20:47 |

| bubbasaures | delta9, Another on this channel turned me on to this tool, even better it has nice tools. So delete that yes, and download the HP tool and use it. http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install_wizard/index.html | 20:50 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, There are multiple desktops people use, yours is the fallback, be sure to always mention that and your release. | 20:51 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, i use regular unity just with the launcher hidden | 20:52 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, Than not sure what you showed me, but the HP tool does all of this. | 20:53 |
| oizoer | What program should I use to burn ubuntu .iso I downloaded? | 20:55 |
| Jordan_U | !burn | oizoer | 20:55 |
| ubottu | oizoer: CD/DVD burning software: k3b (KDE), brasero (GNOME), gnomebaker, xcdroast, wodim (command-line) | To burn ISO files, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 20:55 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, I'm not up on printers other than when plugged in straight, if that printer is in a network, that may be the issue as well, in the end you start with a test print to be sure it's running. | 20:56 |
| oizoer | thanks | 20:56 |
| Jordan_U | oizoer: You're welcome. | 20:57 |
| oizoer | I am trying ubuntu because I have an old Sony VAIO laptop I want to use for JUST viewing netflix. Since XP won't work, I am hoping this does the trick | 20:57 |
| oizoer | I hope ubuntu has the drivers for the video card on this thing so I can output to a tv | 20:58 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, i keep getting 400 bad request when i try to download that tool | 20:59 |
| Codmadnesspro | Does anyone know any other torrenting client other than deluge that i can excute as a console and will allow me to use a webui? | 21:00 |
| oizoer | so my windows 7 doesn't have a "burn disc image" option | 21:00 |
| wonderworld | Codmadnesspro: rtorrent | 21:00 |
| oizoer | which of these is the easiest free software? CD/DVD burning software: k3b (KDE), brasero (GNOME), gnomebaker, xcdroast, wodim (command-line) | 21:01 |
| Codmadnesspro | wonderworld, where is the webui? | 21:01 |
| Nytram | oizoer try this freebie www.imgburn.com | 21:01 |
| oizoer | thanks | 21:02 |
| Nytram | that's for windows btw | 21:02 |
| wonderworld | Codmadnesspro: there are different ones available. rutorrent for example | 21:02 |
| Nytram | And k3b is pretty good | 21:02 |
| Codmadnesspro | E: Unable to locate package rutorrent | 21:02 |
| Codmadnesspro | ? | 21:02 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, also i am unable to run the tool as the instructions dictate | 21:02 |
| OerHeks | Codmadnesspro, rtorrent, not rutorrent | 21:04 |
| bubbasaures | delta9, Not sure what you mean. | 21:04 |
| delta9 | bubbasaures, nevermind, i have resolved the issue | 21:04 |

| undecim | Can I make a guest SSH account, or alternatively, create a virtual SSH user that just runs a shell script? | 21:06 |
| wonderworld | undecim: yes. set that users shell to your script instead of /bin/bash in /etc/passwd | 21:07 |
| undecim | wonderworld, I feel silly now | 21:07 |
| wonderworld | nah, you are smarter now :) | 21:08 |
| undecim | Yeah, lol | 21:08 |
| undecim | what sshd_config directives do I need to make sure the user can ONLY use the shell? | 21:09 |

| wonderworld | he even /msg'ed me. strange guy | 21:13 |
| undecim | Yeah... it must suck having nothing better to do | 21:14 |
| wonderworld | whatever... so you want a user to be able to login but not to run any commands? | 21:14 |
| undecim | wonderworld, No, I want them to type into the script, and to read what it outputs | 21:15 |
| Guest33455 | Hi, I have a (virtual) server that was migrated to another hardware node and no services are started, do you have any recommendation to find what causes the problem? I've manually connected to my server over VNC to enable networking and ssh but otherwise no services are running excepting the default ones | 21:15 |
| undecim | wonderworld, i.e. I want the script to be the only possible thing that can be done with SSH for that user. No sftp, not X forwarding, nothing. | 21:15 |
| snottypans | wonderworld: You mouse. | 21:16 |
| OerHeks | snottypans, stop it. | 21:17 |
| wonderworld | undecim: ok, set your script in /etc/passwd for that user and configure sshd with the "Match User" directive for that user | 21:17 |
| kotu | Hello! Does anyone have an idea how to set $DISPLAY variable on remote server to run a command which requires X11 to work properly (ebook-convert actually) on remote server? I have a lot of text as .epub files and I'd like to convert them to plain text - the only CLI tool I found is ebook-convert. Unfortunatelly it requires X11 to work. I am at home right now and I connected to server via ssh to run that command (ebook-convert) on many epub files | 21:17 |
| kotu | and I got message "cannot connect to X server". If I run ssh with -X parameter it runs OK, but it goes really slow (connects to my local X server) and I cannot run it on server inside screen or tmux to keep it running without permanent connection (because of X11 dependency). Is it possible to force application to use X server on... server :-) (when running remotely)? I tried to set `export DISPLAY="localhost:0.0"` on server but it does not work. | 21:17 |
| kotu | .. Thx for any suggestions. | 21:17 |
| wonderworld | after Match User myuser, you can set sshd_options that only affect that user | 21:17 |
| undecim | kotu, You want to display the remote content on the client? | 21:18 |
| kotu | nope | 21:18 |
| kotu | I need only the result of that command (txt file) | 21:18 |
| ppetraki | Guest33455, might want to ask on #ubuntu-server | 21:18 |
| undecim | kotu, You can use "w" to find the DISPLAY you need to use | 21:18 |
| Guest33455 | ppetraki: thanks, will do | 21:19 |
| undecim | kotu, So why does a CLI tool require X11? | 21:19 |
| undecim | kotu, There's also VNC | 21:19 |
| kotu | undecim, I really don't know why it uses X11, I am not a programmer of that tool ;] | 21:20 |
| chris112 | what video chat application do you recommend i could install at my parents machine? | 21:20 |
| kotu | btw. what you mean "w"? | 21:20 |
| undecim | kotu, a command that's 1 character long | 21:20 |
| undecim | kotu, It shows logins, including DISPLAY variables for the logins | 21:21 |
| undecim | kotu, But if you're on a headless server, you will need VNC | 21:21 |
| kotu | X11 work properly on server | 21:22 |
| undecim | kotu, If you set up a VNC server and launch an xterm, you can start the command in tmux, close the VNC connection, then come back over SSH and attach to tmux | 21:22 |
| kotu | and I can run that command being at work | 21:22 |
| undecim | kotu, So you have an X session open currently? | 21:23 |
| evernub | grepping my syslinux returns a error with syslog and bash | 21:23 |
| kotu | but when I try to do that remotely, it behaves as I wrote | 21:23 |
| kotu | currently I run ssh without X passing | 21:23 |
| kotu | "w" command shows one line with my login | 21:24 |
| undecim | kotu, I would just set up VNC if I were you: https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-vnc-server-on-ubuntu-14.04 | 21:24 |
| Ben64 | if you already have X running, then all you'd need would be to "DISPLAY=:0 ebook-convert blah" | 21:24 |
| undecim | kotu, You can either re-connect to the VNC section when you need to come back to it, or you can use tmux and have to option to re-connect to the command via SSH | 21:24 |
| undecim | s/VNC section/VNC server/ | 21:24 |
| Codmadnesspro | um how do you start transmission? | 21:25 |
| Ben64 | transmission-gtk | 21:26 |
| undecim | wonderworld, How to block SFTP? | 21:26 |
| kotu | Ben64, I've set `export DISPLAY=:0` | 21:26 |
| Ben64 | kotu: note - that only works if you do indeed have X running | 21:27 |
| kotu | and still the same message: cannot connect to X server :0 | 21:27 |
| Codmadnesspro | (transmission-gtk:3383): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: | 21:28 |
| kotu | ok, maybe I'll try with VNC | 21:28 |
| kotu | thanks! | 21:29 |
| Ben64 | Codmadnesspro: you do need a display to run it | 21:29 |
| Codmadnesspro | So how do I run it in terminal so I can then open the webui for it? | 21:29 |
| undecim | Codmadnesspro, transmission-cli | 21:29 |
| wonderworld | undecim: you could try to set Subsystem sftp to /bin/false | 21:29 |
| undecim | Codmadnesspro, There's also transmission-daemon | 21:29 |
| wonderworld | but you need to try if it works. otherwise you could chroot the user into a directory with nothing in it | 21:30 |
| Codmadnesspro | undecim, daemon returned nothing? Is that normal? | 21:30 |
| undecim | Codmadnesspro, Since it's a daemon, I would imagine so. do "ps aux | grep transmission" | 21:30 |
| Codmadnesspro | Yeh it's running, so how to stop it? xD | 21:31 |
| undecim | Codmadnesspro, heck if I know | 21:31 |
| undecim | Codmadnesspro, Kill should do it | 21:31 |
| Codmadnesspro | meh oh well might as well xD | 21:31 |
| undecim | or e.g. killall transmission-daemon | 21:31 |
| Codmadnesspro | long as it's safe.... | 21:31 |
| undecim | Or might be something like "transmission-daemon stop" | 21:31 |
| undecim | See "man transmission-daemon" | 21:32 |
| retroispresto | what's /sbin/blkid -o udev -p /dev/sda1 do | 21:32 |
| Ben64 | retroispresto: man blkid | 21:33 |
| undecim | retroispresto, "man blkid" explains what each option does. -o is the format, and -p makes it skip the system cache (and also includes more info) | 21:34 |

| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Cool, lets give it a shot | 21:48 |

| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: it seems the array is already built, just need to mount I think | 21:48 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, That's what's on the drive? | 21:49 |
| wonderworld | i guess it's not started (md0: inactive) | 21:49 |
| wonderworld | please pastebin /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf | 21:49 |
| Nimbus_ | yeah, it's essentially a storage drive of small videos the problem is it came from an iphone 6 so this particular directory will not allow a copy of the files. Will format once I can get these files copied | 21:49 |
| Nimbus_ | thought chown would do the trick | 21:49 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: https://gist.github.com/michaelaguiar/810b53f3d81eefba3df3 | 21:50 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: I believe all configurations should be fine. This was all working last week | 21:50 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: what caused the stop of the array? was the machine rebooted or did a disk fail? | 21:51 |
| Ben64 | Nimbus_: dude. type "mount".... find the relevant line. paste it here. | 21:51 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Not sure, it wasn’t working this mornming, so I rebooted the machine | 21:51 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: then it tells me continue waiting for mount, skip, or manually mount, so I skipped just to get into the system | 21:51 |

| Nimbus_ | mount | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | arcsky: many applications like torrent clients have web interfaces | 22:01 |
| arcsky | i want to control the mouse | 22:02 |
| ActionParsnip | arcsky: but to achieve what? | 22:02 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, Capitalization is important | 22:02 |
| voip_ | hello guys | 22:02 |
| arcsky | ActionParsnip: i want to change music from my laptop to my htpc | 22:02 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 22:02 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: err, was I supposed to do “mount” before that command? | 22:03 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: ok. your raid is not running. | 22:03 |
| voip_ | how to cd /root/ if logged as user ? withod sudo command ? | 22:03 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: yes, sorry "mount /dev/md0 /RAIDVOLUME" | 22:04 |
| ActionParsnip | arcsky: VLC has a web UI. Or you can use X forwarding and run GUI apps on the server using SSH. GUI will show on the client but sound will come out of the remote system | 22:04 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: ok that’s what I did, which returned the error above | 22:04 |
| undecim | voip_, You have to log in as root. You can open a root shell with "sudo -i". BE CAREFUL | 22:04 |
| undecim | voip_, and godspeed, sir | 22:04 |
| arcsky | ActionParsnip: soundcloud web | 22:04 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: ok. you could stry to stop and restart the whole array | 22:04 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: what is the command? Sorry, I’m new to mounting | 22:05 |
| aarobc | Anyone know how to get powerline working in uxterm? gnome-terminal is freezing randomly for me | 22:05 |
| undecim | voip_, Now my question for you is why do you need to cd to /root? | 22:05 |
| undecim | voip_, That's not a normal thing to do unless you're root | 22:05 |
| voip_ | undecim, i know int works with | 22:05 |
| voip_ | sudo -i | 22:05 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: stop array: mdadm --stop /dev/md0 | 22:05 |
| voip_ | i need witout sudo | 22:05 |
| Nimbus_ | undecim, indeed it is | 22:05 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: after that check status again "cat /proc/mdstat" | 22:05 |
| undecim | voip_, Why? | 22:05 |
| ActionParsnip | arcsky: could run a web browser over x forwarding. ... There may be an application that can connect to soundcloud | 22:05 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] | 22:06 |
| michaelaguiar | unused devices: <none> | 22:06 |
| michaelaguiar | mount again? | 22:06 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: ok you stopped it successfully | 22:06 |
| Nimbus_ | undecim should this take a bit of time since it's about 44 gigs | 22:06 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: now restart it: "mdadm --assemble --scan" | 22:06 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, It will take time, yes. | 22:06 |
| momomo | Is it just me or is Ubuntu 14.04 freezing once in a while now? I have to CTRL + SHIFT + FX and back to get things moving again. This now happens about 4-5 times a day. It's annoying. Is it just me? | 22:06 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: mdadm: /dev/md/0 assembled from 20 drives - not enough to start the array. | 22:07 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: ok, thats your problem | 22:07 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, You can estimate the completion time, with a bit of math | 22:07 |
| voip_ | undecim, because we using some app for login and we can't implement sudo command. We need to access some programs availible only from root | 22:07 |
| compdoc | momomo, could be hardware, but Ive also heard a recent update screwed some stuff up. how long has this been going on? | 22:07 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: so 4 of the drives aren’t working? | 22:07 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: i don't have enough experience with arrays made of so many disks so i'll have to google stuff too. | 22:08 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, voip_ how will you run them if you are not root? | 22:08 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: some drives seem to be missing | 22:08 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: either because they have been removed, failed oder got physically disconnected | 22:08 |
| voip_ | undecim, we can run / stop whan logging from terminal as root, also programm start after server rebooting | 22:09 |
| Nimbus_ | I can run root | 22:09 |
| Nimbus_ | Undecim is seems like it is changing permissions so I believe I just have to wait for it to finish | 22:09 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Is there a way to add one at a time until it fails on the broken one? | 22:10 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: try "fdisk -l" to list all drives the system sees. and please repost "cat /proc/mdstat" again | 22:10 |
| arcsky | ActionParsnip: you right | 22:10 |
| undecim | voip_, I still don't quite understand. You can make the /root directory open to all users with "chmod a+rx" | 22:10 |
| undecim | voip_, With this, any user logged into the system can do "cd /root" and "ls /root" | 22:11 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: https://gist.github.com/michaelaguiar/14e38a62738d35d5de11 | 22:11 |
| undecim | voip_, Better would be to make a group | 22:11 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: mdadm --assemble --scan should automatically add all available devices. we need to find out why the 4 are missing | 22:11 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: https://gist.github.com/michaelaguiar/ffe3e1fa01566bb68418 | 22:12 |
| undecim | voip_, Then only certain users are allowed to cd to root. | 22:12 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: there is my fdisk | 22:12 |
| Nimbus_ | Thank you undecim it's working now just taking awhile I will be patient and once again thanks for helping out and being patient | 22:13 |
| Talidan | Hey guys, i have ubuntu running on a server but my file-system seems to set itself as read-only. tried a bunch of things but can't get it back to rw | 22:13 |

| Nimbus_ | undecim chown: changing ownership of ‘/home/nimbus/Desktop/LaCie/DJI Christmas 2014 Vids/PC230316.MOV’: Operation not permitted | 22:15 |
| sabotender | I need to change the network settings to use a specific static IP so port forwarding will work properly... | 22:15 |
| k1l | sabotender: change the /etc/network/interfaces | 22:16 |
| sabotender | I was getting to that. | 22:16 |
| sabotender | :-P | 22:16 |
| daftykins | just set a static IP through network manager. | 22:16 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: when I do mdadm —examine /dev/sdx1, I get “mdadm: No md superblock detected on /dev/sdx1.” | 22:16 |
| michaelaguiar | but the others I tried returned results. Could this be an issue? | 22:17 |
| sabotender | daftykins: its a headless server. trying to configure VNC was a lost cause. I won't be seeing a GUI any time soon | 22:17 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, I made a mistake in the second half of the command. To fix it do "sudo chown -R nimbus:nimbus /home/nimbus/Desktop" | 22:17 |
| k1l | daftykins: that is a arm device and he got no monitor output (missing cable) and needs to set it on the mounted mincrosd | 22:17 |
| undecim | Nimbus_, File transfers are done, just still owned by root | 22:17 |
| voip_ | undecim, for example | 22:17 |
| voip_ | i have wowzamanager user, and wowzamanager group | 22:17 |
| voip_ | I need access to from wowzamanager user to /usr/local/WowzaStreamingEngine/conf witout "sudo" | 22:17 |
| voip_ | wowzamanager has membership of root group | 22:17 |
| voip_ | but still cann acces to /root/ and /usr/local/WowzaStreamingEngine/conf | 22:17 |
| daftykins | k1l: ah my apologies, just glanced in :> | 22:18 |
| k1l | sabotender: forget about vnc. focus on getting the network running and then use ssh. that is what headles servers are made for | 22:18 |
| Talidan | undecim: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9789173/ | 22:18 |
| sabotender | k1l: how do I determine which network interface is being used? I have to be careful because if i mess up, I will have to reflash the entire system | 22:18 |
| k1l | daftykins: no biggie. he was here some hours ago. | 22:18 |
| daftykins | sabotender: righty-o, my fault for glancing in late. ignore me | 22:18 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: but I donly get that out of 2 of them. | 22:18 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: yes might be. fdisk -l listed all 24 disks. these are the disks the kernel itself sees. so all disks are available to linux. cat /proc/mdstat lists the disks available to the array. there are only 22 used. check which 2 are missing | 22:19 |
| momomo | compdoc, for about a week or two | 22:19 |
| k1l | sabotender: in most cases its eth0 for the ethernet lan | 22:19 |
| undecim | voip_, By default, /root is open to the root user, but not the root group. Do 'chmod g+rwx /root' to give the root group access | 22:19 |
| === cr is now known as Guest20062 | ||
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: ok so prob x and y are the 2 missing | 22:19 |
| sabotender | k1l: the stuff that is commented out have 'wlan0' | 22:19 |
| k1l | sabotender: i dont know what you are using there to connect. is it a wifi? is it a lan cable? | 22:20 |
| sabotender | #auto wlan0, #iface wlan0 inet dhcp | 22:20 |
| undecim | voip_, You can do the same with any system files in /usr, if the group of the file is set to "root" | 22:20 |
| sabotender | its a lan cable | 22:20 |
| === `Yoda is now known as Yoder | ||
| voip_ | undecim, thank you | 22:20 |
| k1l | sabotender: so dont worry about the wlan entries | 22:20 |
| sabotender | you see, I thought it would be eth0 too, but I think it is important to find out to be certain, but I will believe you if eth0 is what is being used | 22:21 |
| undecim | voip_, "chmod g+r" is read, +w is write, and +x is execute. You need +x on a directory to cd | 22:21 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: ok. somebody here had a similar problem: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/recovering-mdadm-superblocks-713234/ maybe this can help. be VERY careful with the --create switch. it can destroy all your data. don't just copy and paste it. | 22:21 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: they say in that thread that they were able to add the disks with their uuid. does --examine on the disks still return the uuid? | 22:22 |
| michaelaguiar | yep, the device and array uuid | 22:23 |
| sabotender | okay, ifconfig -a shows that eth0 is the proper interface | 22:23 |
| k1l | sabotender: the stuff you put into the network interfaces should look like this: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/421128/ | 22:24 |
| k1l | change the ip numbers as needed | 22:24 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: OK. i don't want to give any further reccomendations, because i am not experienced with RAID10 and you can lose data here. but the two missing disks are your problem. | 22:25 |
| sabotender | sweet, I will try it out, give me a moment | 22:25 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Can I safely remove them from the array, and try to mount again? | 22:25 |
| undecim | I've seen more data lost to RAID than I've seen lost to disk failures... | 22:26 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, What exactly is going on with the raid? | 22:26 |
| Talidan | the drive is sda | 22:26 |
| michaelaguiar | undecim: I have an array of 24 drives. Worked fine last week, today it didn’t work. So now I’m just trying to get this raid mounted | 22:26 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, Is there any particular reason you have a 24-drive raid? And also, what kind of configuration? | 22:27 |
| michaelaguiar | undecim: Not sure, didn’t set it up. | 22:27 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: try a reboot first. after the reboot check "dmesg" and "cat /var/log/syslog" for clues on whats going on | 22:28 |
| undecim | Is this using any RAID controllers, or just Linux software? | 22:28 |
| oizoer | what software do I used to put ubuntu image to a usb drive? | 22:28 |
| undecim | Not always a good idea to just reboot | 22:28 |
| Talidan | seems like sda3 is causing a problem | 22:28 |
| undecim | Unless you've done it once already | 22:28 |
| michaelaguiar | Ive rebooted already, had to skip mounting because it would just stay on the mounting screen | 22:28 |
| wonderworld | undecim: he did. that caused the problem | 22:29 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, So what system are you working with now? A live Cd? | 22:29 |
| jbrun | Hey guy, I'm trying to compile Veejay on Ubuntu 10.04 (old, i know), and i get on error 1 leaving directory '/.../veejay-server/libyuv' any idea what I could do to solve this? | 22:33 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: do you understand the difference between assebling an array and mounting it into the filesystem? because thats essential for your task. i think you are mixing up the two terms. | 22:33 |
| jbrun | I'm a bit a noobie on these things but I'm so close to getting it... Please! | 22:34 |
| sabotender | why can I not edit 'resolv.conf' by hand? it says that my changes would be overwritten? | 22:34 |
| sabotender | how can I set my nameservers to something more permanent? | 22:34 |
| daftykins | you can by removing the package resolvconf | 22:34 |
| wonderworld | sabotender: NetworkManager overwrites resolv.conf if it's used. you can set nameservers in the GUI for your connections | 22:35 |
| daftykins | though in my experience, remove the package, set the content then it disappears on reboot. you have to set it after reboot for it to stay there | 22:35 |
| sabotender | wonderworld: this is a headless server. I have no GUI | 22:35 |
| sabotender | daftykins: so I have to uninstall the network manager? | 22:35 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: yea, assembling puts the array together, then you mount it | 22:35 |
| wonderworld | ok. i guess this warning is about NetworkManager overwriting it. if you have no GUI it should work | 22:36 |
| k1l | sabotender: stop. you said there is a desktop installed | 22:36 |
| daftykins | sabotender: didn't refer to NM at any point | 22:36 |
| zippo^ | Hello, I have a question. I am on Mac OS X now. I want install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on another laptop (Asus). How do I doing Ubuntu (setup) on USB Stick via Mac OS X? | 22:36 |
| sabotender | k1l: this is true. this is the desktop version of ubuntu and not the server version | 22:36 |
| k1l | sabotender: so you have a desktop, you just dont have a monitor attached to it to use the monitor. that is not running a server which doesnt start x11 at all | 22:36 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: did you reboot the machine? | 22:37 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: a couple times already today | 22:37 |
| daftykins | zippo^: you can 'dd' the ISO onto the correct device, no idea how macs handle device naming though. look up a guide. | 22:37 |
| zippo^ | what is 'dd'? | 22:37 |
| jbrun | Hey guy, I'm trying to compile Veejay on Ubuntu 10.04 (old, i know), and i get on error 1 leaving directory '/.../veejay-server/libyuv' any idea what I could do to solve this? | 22:37 |

| jbrun | Sorry? | 22:38 |
| sabotender | k1l: right...so what do you recommend that I do? | 22:38 |
| daftykins | zippo^: a command line program for image writing. | 22:38 |
| trism | jbrun: you would need to pastebin the actual error | 22:38 |
| Ben64 | jbrun: sounds like you're compiling it, get support from the developer. manually compiled stuff isn't supported here | 22:38 |

| daftykins | zippo^: what did i say? | 22:39 |
| zippo^ | yes, but how do i with dd | 22:39 |

| k1l | sabotender: its time to read the documentations :) https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/network-configuration.html#name-resolution | 22:41 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: sdp1: Raid device exceeded read_error threshold. this sounds bad. your h/w seems to be failing. you really should get a tech guy if there is important data on the raid. | 22:41 |
| undecim | Well with 24 disks, it won't take long to see one fail | 22:42 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: did you set up e-mail alerts with mdadm for failing disks? | 22:42 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: no I didnt | 22:42 |
| michaelaguiar | undecim: is there an easy way to add one to the array, mount it, add another, etc until I find the fail? | 22:43 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: maybe disks were failing one after another without you noticing it. | 22:43 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, your data might be gone | 22:43 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, It might be a situation where you need to recover a physical disk to get it back | 22:43 |
| michaelaguiar | Well what if the data I need is on just one disk? | 22:43 |
| sabotender | k1l: where do you think I was reading? | 22:43 |
| michaelaguiar | would I lose it if any of the raid fails? | 22:44 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, It depends on the configuration of the data | 22:44 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: mdadm already assembled all the disks it could use. 22 of the 24. the link i gave you explained how to add devices with missing superblock but available UUID. | 22:44 |
| undecim | configuration of the raid* | 22:44 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, Your main goal is to get your data? | 22:44 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: the ones that say missing superblock don’t provide the uuid | 22:44 |
| michaelaguiar | undecim: Yea, I only really need a small amount of data that is on one of these drives | 22:45 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: How can I just remove the two from the list and mount this bad boy | 22:45 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, let me load a VM with raid to I have a similar system to test e.g. small scripts on | 22:46 |
| sabotender | I was reading https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration | 22:46 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, If they are all in the same raid, that might not be possible. It depends on the configuration of the raid and which drives failed | 22:46 |
| michaelaguiar | undecim: oh ok | 22:46 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, So I can't say anything for sure until I learn more | 22:46 |
| Talidan | fixed it | 22:47 |
| === zombiefox is now known as Fuchs | ||
| undecim | michaelaguiar, Can you paste your logs? dmesg, syslog, etc | 22:47 |

| Mrono | I'm running Ubuntu 14.10 on an MSI GS70 and i'm unable to set the performance governor using cpufreq cli. When I set it with /etc/default/cpufrequtils | 22:47 |
| Mrono | It sets to performance then goes back to powersave | 22:47 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, also, /proc/mdstat | 22:48 |

| eatyourguitar | I never tried xmbc | 22:55 |
| eatyourguitar | I was planning to try xubuntu anyway | 22:55 |
| bubbasaures | try both and than you will know | 22:56 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: Ok so 2 failed drives total, and I know which ones. Now if I can just remove them from the array and get this mounted | 22:56 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: it were not x and y? | 22:56 |
| eatyourguitar | I remember 4 years ago I tried ubuntu netbook edition it was super fast on old hardware | 22:56 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: nope. it was q and j | 22:56 |

| eatyourguitar | and other accounting tasks | 22:59 |
| eatyourguitar | it saved a lot of man hours | 22:59 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: mdadm found j and p and added them to the array. the hardware is failing but mdadm was still able to add them. they will fail soon, you need to replace them but it wasn't the cause your array didnt start | 22:59 |

| eatyourguitar | oh was it Lubuntu | 23:01 |
| k1l | !lubuntu | eatyourguitar | 23:02 |
| ubottu | eatyourguitar: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 23:02 |
| wonderworld | michaelaguiar: "mdadm --detail /dev/md0" please. | 23:02 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: mdadm: md device /dev/md0 does not appear to be active. | 23:02 |
| michaelaguiar | wonderworld: remember? Can’t activate it | 23:02 |
| eatyourguitar | so LXDE I'm guessing is a KDE fork? | 23:03 |
| Jordan_U | eatyourguitar: No, not even close. | 23:03 |
| michaelaguiar | I can’t seem to get array info either, to remove the 2 drives via mdadm —manage /dev/md0 —remove /dev/sdy1 | 23:03 |

| Jordan_U | eatyourguitar: No. The only difference between different flavors of Ubuntu is the software installed by default. They all use the same repositories, and thus anything that can be installed on one can also be installed on another. | 23:04 |

| michaelaguiar | undecim: for sure. Need to make sure this doesn’t happen again | 23:29 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, With raid 10, some drives are copies of each other. If all the copies of a drive goes out, the whole thing fails | 23:29 |

| bubbasaures | eatyourguitar, what than? | 23:30 |
| eatyourguitar | nothing | 23:30 |
| eatyourguitar | I thought you said this would work | 23:31 |
| eatyourguitar | misunderstanding | 23:31 |
| bubbasaures | eatyourguitar, really so you expected them to magically appear? | 23:31 |
| eatyourguitar | I thought you were telling me I had default packages I could use in Ubuntu | 23:31 |
| bubbasaures | eatyourguitar, never said anything resembling that | 23:32 |
| undecim | michaelaguiar, If you keep the raid config, consider using some of those drives as hot spares if you can spare the space | 23:32 |
