klinecompdoc, heres the best i can do: http://i.imgur.com/QxsmqV3.png01:12
eatyourguitarhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_40301:12
klinecompdoc, its notable that 1) on the debian host it works fine, 2) it works fine for about 1 min after ifup on the ubuntu machine01:13
compdockline, you sure that netmask is right?01:13
klinecompdoc, 100%01:13
eatyourguitarthis is a result of you not having permissions to get what you want via the url/port/directory/host etc...01:13
klinelike i said, its strange vendor mask, but it does work01:13
eatyourguitarlike if google updates how the site works the app will create a bad url01:13
eatyourguitarso you get the same message if you are blocked or it doesn't exist01:14
eatyourguitarcause you have whitelist permissions to the regular parts of youtube but not private server stuff01:14
compdockline, its very odd. you ever try commenting out the post-down line?01:15
stongois this abnormal: in ubuntu 14.04 server I cannot login via ssh until I log in through console?01:17
klinecompdoc, survived 44 seconds01:17
eatyourguitarFinetundra what is the url you requested that returned 403?01:18
eatyourguitarmaybe there are messages in a log file or output to the console you can read?01:18
Finetundraeatyourguitar, I've tried multiple url's01:18
eatyourguitarwell that doesn't mean anything01:19
eatyourguitarhave you actually investigated why you are getting 403?01:19
eatyourguitardo you have solid information that these are working links?01:19
FinetundraI can make a pastebin of the terminal output01:19
Finetundrayes they are working links01:19
eatyourguitaryoutube changes stuff around from time to time01:20
eatyourguitarhow do you know they are working?01:20
Bashing-ombihaber: Often times we see your condition as a result of a 3rd party (proprietary) graphics driver installed, when the system is upgraded that driver is not, and you have a broke display. Show the channel -> sudo lshw -C display | pastebinit . Shows the card and IF/what driver is installed.01:20
eatyourguitarwatching a video and downloading it are most likely different links01:21
Finetundraeatyourguitar, because I used the link today? I'm not sure what your're asking01:21
eatyourguitarthe app youtube downloader is getting 403 for a link that was created from some user input01:21
eatyourguitaryou told it what video you wanted how?01:22
Finetundracopied and pasted the link01:22
klinecompdoc, found it, theres a little widget i didnt notice in the topbar scrolled off my tiny windows VM screen for networking, it was convinced that eth0 needed dhcp01:22
eatyourguitarok01:22
klinedisabling it resolved the issue01:22
eatyourguitaris this a website or an app?01:22
eatyourguitaryou paste it into the youtube-dl app?01:23
Finetundraeatyourguitar, um, its a youtube video01:24
eatyourguitaryoutube-dl is a youtube video?01:24
eatyourguitaror is it an app01:24
eatyourguitaror a website01:24
Finetundraeatyourguitar, oh, thats what you're asking. its a program01:25
eatyourguitarok so you need something like http://xmodulo.com/sniff-http-traffic-command-line-linux.html01:25
eatyourguitarthis will tell you what is happening that you can not see01:25
eatyourguitarso you can see what the broken link is that generates the 403 error01:26
plasmasnakewould anybody here happen to know why /etc/shadow is owned by root:shadow (with permissions 640) and not root:root? what's the use of the shadow group?01:26
eatyourguitarlike if it points to youtube.com/?olddownloadapi.php01:26
eatyourguitarI just made that up01:27
eatyourguitaryoutube.com/olddownloadapi.php?v=83dd8d01:27

sudormrfbubbasaures, :).  my question is now, is there a way to strip the standard bit of gnome3 out of that package so only gnome flashback installs?06:20
bubbasauressudormrf, fallback is a shell in gnome 3 like unity06:21
sudormrfbubbasaures, yep.  but I don't want the main shell.  just want the fallback shell only.  is that possible?06:21

sudormrfbubbasaures, oh...looks like I could remove the gnome-core package and only install gnome-session-flashback06:22
bubbasauressudormrf, sure, but gnome 3 is what makes it all magic06:23

sudormrfbubbasaures, this is true.  however I am specifically referring to the DE :).06:25
Y0uKn0wWh0sudormrf: if you need lightweight, xfce or lxde is lighter, and there's also mate (which is like gnome2 - gnome2 is not maintained anymore) and cinnamon...06:25

tekgeekhave you tried another live cd or usb06:41
zacwallstekgeek; No i dont have one on hand06:42
zacwallstekgeek; any other options?06:42
tekgeekits going to be either software or hardware so I would do something like run the memory check that you get in the grub loader06:42
tekgeekor a hard drive testing software you can get those from the manufacturer of the hard drive06:43
zacwallsDoesnt that take like 2 hrs?06:43
bubbasauresmemory check should be run over night06:43
zacwallsOh god06:43
tekgeekyes but your computer is not working so its not going to be wasting your time06:43
BluewolfHi all, could someone tell me why this command is not working and how I can get it to do so? - http://paste.ubuntu.com/9792030/06:44
zacwallsWell,06:44
tekgeekI run full hardware tests all day long on my customers computers with some software on a boot cd its normally 2/6 hours06:44
zacwallsOh I think there is something wrong with my repos06:44
zacwallswhen i run sudo apt-get -f install i get error(1)06:45
gsennaBluewolf, replace double quotes with single quotes06:45
tekgeekburn an iso of another linux distro or usb drive and test it out that way06:45
bubbasaureszacwalls, if you are all ubuntu repos we have the same basically if you have run good updates/upgrades, no partials no broken packages.06:45
Bluewolfgsenna: Which double quotes?06:45
zacwallsbubbasures; I cant install any packages06:46
gsennaBluewolf, both double quotes06:46

gsennaBluewolf, it works here. Are you sure you are using single quotes and not some other similar character?06:50
bubbasaureszacwalls, By the way the issue you had yesterday when turning the swap off seems like it is a swap issue, turning it off should not of had the effect you described, seemed like you had the computer still running hard when you did it.06:50

Bluewolfcmdswitch: It did not work.06:52
Bluewolfgsenna: Same thing: sed: -e expression #1, char 35: unknown option to `s'06:52

Aro2220Okay so this problem has gotten a bit too challenging for me. I have an Acer Chromebook C720 and I installed Ubuntu 14.10 on it. But, the touchpad doesn't work. I'm trying to work through a promising fix, but I need internet. I tried to get the wifi working through command line but when I type in VI, my arrow keys input the letters A B C and D and backspace doesn't work so this is really challenging. I was able to press alt-F to open the file menu at the07:02
bubbasaureszacwalls, ppa's will be in /etc/apt/sources.list.d07:03
AdvationStanley00: Thanks! I'll give that a shot.07:03
Stanley00Aro2220: vi has no arrow keys, you must use hjkl then :307:03
zacwallsbubbasaures; How will know witch one is the bad .deb?07:04
cmdswitchAro2220, try sudo nano <file> ?07:04
Stanley00Advation: yep, I'm just not sure the last command is grub-update or update-grub, you must try one of them :307:04
Aro2220i dont have nano or vim installed. already tried those =/07:04
cmdswitchAro2220, try vi (not vim)07:04
Stanley00Aro2220: nano is installed by default, IIRC07:04
Aro2220interesting hjkl works but how do i backspace?07:04
bubbasaureszacwalls, cmdswitch asked you about it, in your update paste it shows it.07:05
Aro2220nano is not installed in this distribution...whatever it is that i installed. it is very odd yes07:05
Stanley00Aro2220: x will delete, vi has no backspace too :307:05
gsennaBluewolf, it would work if you disable some startup apps after.07:05
Aro2220okay that helps but is there an easy mode...the gui won't connect. any way i can see a log to find out what the problem is?07:05
Stanley00Aro2220: hmm... ubuntu 14.10 without nano? it's strange...07:05
zacwallsWhere? exactly?07:06
cmdswitchAro2220: http://www.viemu.com/vi-vim-cheat-sheet.gif07:06
kushal_k`Aro2220: you can try using nano instead. Traditionally, vi uses the h j k and l keys to move the cursor. I don't know enough about the different vi/vim versions to say which version has support for using the arrow keys.07:06
Aro2220neither vim or nano are working but that's okay vi does work and x deletes so that helps me there07:06
Bluewolfgsenna: Well after it working in the terminal its not coming up with all the start aplications as show there?07:06
Aro2220i was just hoping that hte gui network connection would work and since it doesnt i wish i could see what the error is07:07

deetrustytahrrobo, I tried to re-install via liveusb yesterday, the first option is 1. to install alongside 14.04 and 12.04 the other one 2. is erase the partition. so i discontinued08:28
robodeetrustytahr, oh, you need to check the box that says "do something else" or something like that to do it manually08:29
roboI think maybe you didn't set up a separate partition for your home folder.  You can go into your 12.04 system08:30
deetrustytahrrobo, ok i also did it but after that I dont know what to do next since im afraid to ruin the partitions haha08:30
roboand get to your 14.04 home folder that way and save the data to an external device08:30
robodeetrustytahr, yeah I understand what you mean. I used to do a lot with the partitions when I was new to linux, so learned the hard way... by making mistakes hahaa08:32
deetrustytahrrobo, haha this is my first time to encounter samba failures and i dont want to mess things up, maybe i'll just try to back up my data tomorrow in an external hard drive. Then re-install 14.04. rather than playing with the odds haha08:35

votloncfhowlett: thx ill look over this forum!10:40

votlonmcphail: Werid stuff is happening man11:43
mcphailvotlon: better than no stuff at all11:44
Guest38966mcphail, Is it accept domain name as input?11:44
serviscope_m1noranyone know where the lightdm logs go?11:45
Guest38966I google something like /etc/hosts and ufw11:45
votlonmcphail: yeah got it to load into the os using the nouveau.noaccel=1 parama but its still a black screen, the reason i know its on the login screen thou is cuz i heard the little drum sound :)11:45
Guest38966all examples are deal with ip address11:46
ablest1980votlon maybe that problem is fixed in 14.04 lts?11:46
mcphailvotlon: and does ctrl-alt-f1,2,3,4,5 etc working to bring up a terminal?11:47
votlonmcphail: ill tell you in one sec trying nouveau.noaccel=1 with nomodeset now11:47
mcphailGuest38966: enter "127.0.0.1 the.domain" and it should redirect away from "the.domain". You might need to reboot to see the changes take effect11:48
votlonmcphail: this boot time is seriously long thou :/11:48
mcphailvotlon: no point using nouveau parameters if you're using nomodeset. Nouveau isn't called if you use nomodeset11:49
ablest1980bye bbl11:49
votlonmcphail: explains why i wouldnt boot then :p11:49
votlonit wouldnt*11:49
mcphailvotlon: what is the native resolution of the macbook screen?11:50
votlonmcphail: should i leave vt_handoff or remove it?11:50
mcphailvotlon: leave it in place11:51
nukeu666im on saucy and update-manager is telling me it can't upgrade form saucy to quantal, but i want it to goto trusty...am i missing a config?11:52

votlon$vt_handoff nouveau.noaccel=1 thats it11:55
mcphailvotlon: and you're getting the login sound with that one?11:56
votlonmcphail: yes11:56
mcphailvotlon: and you didn't get it with "nomodeset"?11:57
votlonmcphail: correct11:57
mcphailvotlon: very odd. The vesa driver usually works for everything. The good news is we can probably improve this11:58

OerHeksnukeu666, i am stunned !11:59
votlonthis is how i feel about my graphics cards right now. http://rptd.ch/misc/funny/linux_nvidia_fu.jpg11:59
nukeu666OerHeks, maybe because of a incomplete upgrade? should i go ahead with trusty upgrade?12:00
mcphailvotlon: we have 2 ways to go. The first is to try to force a video resolution on boot12:00
OerHeksnukeu666, upgrade should bring you to trusty 14.04 yes12:00
votlonmcphail: okay do i type it in the same spot as the boot params?12:00
mcphailvotlon: add the boot parameter "drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1024x768.bin"12:01
votlonmcphail: keep it with the handoff and accel params too? or just by itself12:02
mr_booi've got windows 7, ubuntu and windows 2003 server on an ssd drive. why isn't the win 2003 server listed in the grub menu?12:02
mcphailvotlon: keep the others12:02
mcphailvotlon: and if it doesn't work just keep $vt_handoff12:03

mr_boohope grub related questions are considered on topic for this channel12:07
mr_boothis channel used to be way more active than this for what i remember12:08

mr_booi've got win 7, win 2003 and ubuntu on the same ssd drive but the win 2003 doesn't show up in the grub menu. any ideas?12:13
votlonmcphail: Ahah its okay thanks for all your help thou tonight, i got school tomorrow and i was just hoping to get the laptop working for notes12:13
votlonmcphail: its starting to overheat so im gonna let it sit for a long while, hopefully tomorrow i can get this all fix!12:13
ryan__you can install Kali :P it will reinstall grub and look for all new partitions12:13
Ben64ryan__: not a good solution and kali isn't even supported here12:14
mcphailvotlon: OK. We can deug this further but it is going to take a while so do it some other time, perhaps. I think the install is fine: we're just battling video drivers12:14
ryan__Ben64: works within 20mins though...12:14
Ben64probably not12:14
mr_booryan__: is kali similar to grub-repair?12:14
Ben64kali is a distro based on ubuntu, pointless to install for that purpose12:15
mr_booi've run grub-repair and it generated this pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/9793676/12:15
cmdr_RedCan I get help running Ubuntu Make? It supports Android Studio and I have it installed but dunno how to run it12:15
votlonmcphail: All my linux installs have been virtual machines, so i havent really seen this side of linux before .-. thank you for all your help again!12:15
Ben64cmdr_Red: you still haven't answered the question both ikonia and myself have posited12:16
BluesKajmr_boo, run sudo os-prober  then run, sudo update-grub12:16

votlonBen64: btw i have a picture of our credit card on my desktop .-. idk where i got it from thou12:16
votlonyour credit card*12:16
Ben64thats cool12:17
ryan__mr_boo: i dont know why they are all hating the idea of installing kali, i had the same problem. kali installs a different grub and looks at all the partitions. 99% chance it will work if u install kali. and it will only take 20 mins12:17
votlonBen64: have to say im jelly of the name man:p i tried to get mine changed and they wouldnt do it12:18

tytanAre there known issues for installing Ubuntu 14.04.1 on a SSHD?12:37
=== spideyman is now known as Guest32025
Rorytytan: No12:38
Rorytytan: Are you asking before installing just to check, or are you seeing problems?12:38
BluesKajevo7, on tp-link router firmware page do the network machines show up in DHCP Clients with mac addresses and IPs?12:39
tytanA customer called me and asked to get an alternative for Windows 8.1. I want to offer Ubuntu 14.04.1. He has a Lenovo U330P with a SSHD (8GB SSD / 500GB HDD)12:39
Rorytytan: It's my understanding that the drive will be presented to the OS as just a single 508G disk, and that the 8G is used internally by the drive for caching12:40
Rorytytan: Does that make sense?12:40
tytanI think it does ^^12:40
BluesKajtytan, offer 14.10, 14.04 is still buggy despite being LTS12:40
RoryI might be wrong, however. So, if you can boot a live USB on the machine and run the "sudo fdisk -l" command, you could see for sure.12:41
tytanAnd Ubuntu 14.10 is not buggy?12:41
tytanOk, I'll do that12:41
Rorytytan: 14.10 won't recieve updates for as long as 14.04, so factor that into your decision12:41
stobix_Hm. Steam is trying to install bogus graphics drivers each time I run it. How do I tell it to stop?12:41
Rorytytan: Will your customer be comfortable upgrading in 8-12 months?12:41
tytanRory I don't think so ^^;12:42
Rorytytan: Then I would recommend 14.04 just by virtue of it receiving security updates for something like 6 years12:42
Roryrather than the regular releases which I think are 1 year12:42
Ben649 months12:42
Rorywll there you go12:42
tytanOk, thanks for sharing your opinion. I'll try that ^^12:43
RoryBluesKaj presumably isn't just spouting nonsense though: would you still recommend 14.10 for a "set it and forget it" customer?12:43
Ben64we always see people come in here with a version that is LTS+1 years after EOL asking for support, its not fun for anyone12:43
Ben648.10, 10.10, 12.10, 14.10 is next for the disappointments12:44
RoryMy opinion would be to go for the LTS unless you have a reason not to, rather than the reverse.12:44
Roryhell, I'm still running 12.04 at work12:44
BluesKajRory, yes, it's based on my experience with 14.04 and it's graphics and wifi problems, whereas 14.10 is solid as a rock12:44
RoryWell, can't know until you try with a flash drive. Every laptop is different12:45
Ben64pretty anecdotal though12:45
Ben6414.10 introduces almost no new features, and a slightly newer kernel that will be available in 14.04 i believe... next month?12:46
Roryyeah, 14.10 was never going to be anything special12:46
BluesKajRory, you guys can disregard my experience with 14.04 and go with the std response about LTS , but it's not as stable as it should be for an OS that's supposed to be stable and supported for 5 yrs12:47
Rorysupported for 5 years, in this context just means security updates12:47
=== pvoigt_ is now known as pvoigt
Ben64for a counter anecdote, i run 14.04 and it's been perfect12:48
Roryfrankly I can't tell the difference. I run 14.10 at home and it's been perfect, but then so was 6.10 so.12:48
evo7!BluesKaj help me brah12:49
ubottuevo7: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)12:49
mcphailSince changing to 9-moth support, the non-LTS releases should only be recommended to enthusiasts, imho12:49
mcphail*month12:49
Rorymcphail: They are. The default download option on the website is for the LTS12:49
tewardBen64: Rory: BluesKaj: as a counter to everything: all software has bugs, all releases have bugs, and they will always have bugs as that is the nature of technology.  (This discussion is better suited for a different channel though)12:50
BluesKajevo7, you can make the IPs solid in the tp-link firmware by reserving the IPs in the DHCP reserve option12:50
Roryyeah I think tytan has enough to chew on for the moment. #ubuntu-offtopic exists though12:50
tytanI'm already fine with my decision :P12:51
BluesKajteward, well 14.04 has more than it should for an LTS12:51
tewardBluesKaj: not going to have this discussion without coffee, sorry.12:51
tewardBluesKaj: (my initial statement is still true and covers $all_releases)12:51
* teward disappears for breakfast12:51

Ben64BluesKaj: what you're saying just isn't factual though12:52
=== BlackVenom is now known as BlackVenom|Away
BluesKajthe facts are what I experienced with 14.04, it's not the same for all hardware, not like it should be12:53

cfhowlettarshia, open Ubuntu Software Center.  Search for your package.  install your package.  done.16:05
arshiacfhowlett: Can you tell me what is rep ????16:06
cfhowlettarshia, note:  installing from .deb, as you attempted, doesn't get the dependencies.16:06

ubottuarshia: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories.16:06

cfhowlettA124, I must not understand what you're after.  I thought you wanted your very own customized ubuntu???16:09
xanguainerkick: gnome tweak tool is for gnome shell16:09
arshiacfhowlett: Of course !! but i don't want to waste my Internet again...16:09
TartugalBrunalisis there a guide/forum post/anything with some information on complete system encryption which options are best and such?16:09
cfhowlettarshia, I've given you the fix.  Your choice.16:09

inerkickyeah, even terminal not shows the fonts xangua and as i said ctrl+Alt T don't open terminal their as well16:10
OerHeksarshia, support is limited to the versions in softwarecenter, why can't you install it from softwarecenter?16:10

octoidTartugalBrunalis, full disk encryption is only possible with OpenBSD (the second stage bootloader can decrypt softraid), all GNU/Linux still need an unencrypted boot partition containing the kernel16:12

cfhowlett!ltsp | A124, ah, I think you want LTSP ... net install tool16:13

A124cfhowlett: I do not think so. But might come handy too, thank you.16:14
A124What the link says is using the ISO as HDD.. the hybrid thing.. which does not work for minimal. I will try to play with Kickstart later, and see if I can augment Minimal somehow.16:15
TartugalBrunalisoctoid: that is sufficient for me, is there a guide on that and which options are best?16:16

daftykinsthrowthecheese: you ought to look into YUMI, multiple ISOs on one flash drive20:32
bubbasaureskangman, Nothing I know is all.20:32

daftykinsor cunning GRUB tactics where you also load multiple ISOs off one drive20:32
HedgeworkFun: I'd hesitate to run vanilla ubuntu with 2GB RAM, as Unity is pretty bloated.  However, I'm not sure my usage patterns are typical.  I'd prefer xubuntu or lubuntu on such a machine (or setting up my wm of choice)20:32
Funtheadmin: ok if I want to create live ubuntu usb to try it and then if fine install how do I do it?20:32

cxmthanks avid20:37
MonkeyDustthrowthecheese  you say you don't want this and don't want that, in the end, no options are left20:37

avid_fanhoss: I've done that with a few things over the years, compiled the code but not "installed" it.21:05
hossavid_fan: that's my last resort, but i'm hoping for something that can be automated a bit more (on the "install" side) ... end goal is a doc targeted at java devs of various experience level on how to do regresion testing with older bash versions before contributing patches to our launcher scripts (and most of these devs aren't going to be use to dealing with "make")21:07

Jordan_UToAruShiroiNeko: Probably not very difficult, though it may be easier to just install fresh and set it up again with the VM/container. You do need to decide what type of "virtualization" you want to use, and how you decide that depends on your goals.21:28
ToAruShiroiNekoindeed21:29
ToAruShiroiNekoIts a machine currently used in a production environment but I suppose I can achive my goal by just migrating what I need.21:29
mr_booJordan_U: here's the result http://pastebin.com/h1Ev5HNK21:33
mr_booJordan_U: it is the sda4 that seems to be ignored but grub while both ubuntu itself and windows 7 are listed in the grub menu21:35
mr_boo*by grub21:36
Jordan_Umr_boo: sda4 doesn't contain the bootloader files needed to boot Windows. If it's bootable at all, it would require resources from sda1 or sda2.21:36
mr_booJordan_U: i installed win 2003 after the other two and it took over and booted instead of grub21:37
Jordan_Umr_boo: Does booting either sda1 or sda2 lead you to a menu (from Windows' bootloader) that allows you to boot Win2K?21:38
Jordan_Us/Win2K/Win2K3/21:38
mr_booJordan_U: sda1 and sda2 both boots windows 721:39
Jordan_Umr_boo: From the boot.ini on sda1, it looks like booting sda1 will lead you to Windows 2003 server.21:39
mr_booJordan_U: last time i tried (before trying os-prober) both did boot windows 7 but things might have changed21:41
mr_booJordan_U: maybe i should give it a try21:41
=== pat_ is now known as Guest37854
=== Guest37854 is now known as pmcgowan
Jordan_Umr_boo: Interesting, sda1 has files for both ntldr (from Windows XP and below) and bootmgr (from Vista+). I don't know which the boot sector points to.21:42
mr_booJordan_U: win 7 of course. sda1 was made by win 721:43
Jordan_Umr_boo: But it's odd that it also has files normally only found in earlier Windows versions.21:44
mr_booJordan_U: maybe the fact that i'm using both win 2003 and win 7 confuses grub21:45
mr_booJordan_U: but they have different UUID anyway so they should be distinguished21:46
Jordan_Umr_boo: Were you able to test booting sda1? Grub only chainloads Windows' boot sector (by default, it can also load ntldr/bcd directly, but still can't load an nt kernel directly). That means that if chainloading sda1, and so does chainloading sda2 and sda4, you have a problem with your Windows installation. And I would be very surprised if chainloading sda4 did anything useful, considering it doesn't have any Windows ...21:51
Jordan_U... bootloader files.21:51
Jordan_Umr_boo: *If chainloading sda1 fais, and so does...*21:51
O_OniGiriHi there, I was wondering what a recommended /home partition size is. I am planning on saving all files on another NTFS storage due to dual booting with Windows, so that all my files can be accessed on both OSes.21:52
mr_booJordan_U: gonna try again21:52
mr_booJordan_U: thanks so far21:52
EriC^^O_OniGiri: it's completely up to you21:52
ikoniaO_OniGiri: the recomendation is "as big as you need"21:52
O_OniGiriikonia: I am using symlinks, so does that mean that I can make my home like 10GB or something?21:53
ikoniaI advise you not to symlink to an NTFS partition21:53
Jordan_UO_OniGiri: I would recommend against creating a separate /home/ partition at all. And if you're suggesting that you would put your entire home directory on ntfs, that's a very bad idea due to the mismatch in permissions schemes.21:53
O_OniGiriikonia: what are the disadvantages?21:53
ikoniaO_OniGiri: an unsupported file system with lack of permissions, questionable execute options etc21:54
tewardO_OniGiri: NTFS doesn't handle Linux file permissions - if you're going to put /home/ onto nfts you're going to break the permissions21:54
Jordan_Uikonia: Why not? What's wrong with symlinks to paths on an ntfs volume?21:54
O_OniGiriJordan_U: my /home is formatted as ext421:54
Jordan_UO_OniGiri: Why do you want a separate /home/ partition?21:55
O_OniGiriLook, my HDD of 500GB has a /home of 200GB currently and the remaining memory is NTFS that is used for both OSes21:55
ikoniaO_OniGiri: only you can judge home much storage you need21:55
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: good call :-)21:55
i101Hello21:55
O_OniGiriikonia: let's say that I'm symlinking all my subfolders of my /home, e.g. Documents, Pictures, Downloads. Is this bad?21:56
i101Do you have experience running asssaultcube on Chromebooks/Ubuntu using Crouton?21:56
O_OniGiriikonia: if I am symlinking them, does that mean that basically my /home partition can be really small, because all files are saved on the HDD.21:57
daftykinsO_OniGiri: as long as all volumes in use are ext4, that's the best way to handle the SSD + HDD split yeah21:57
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: should be fine. Sharing NTFS can be a headache if you use Samba.21:57
ikoniaO_OniGiri: I don't think it's a good idea21:57
ikoniaO_OniGiri: as I've said earlier21:57
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: makes backups easy too.21:57
ikoniaO_OniGiri: if you think I'm wrong, continue21:57
daftykinsi101: i don't think we  support crouton21:57
i101thanks21:58

ActionParsnipi101: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/795730-how-to-easily-install-ubuntu-on-chromebook-with-crouton21:58
daftykinsO_OniGiri: ikonia does follow, you shouldn't symlink to an NTFS volume :)21:59
O_OniGiriikonia: but what is bad about saving movies on a NTFS partition?21:59
daftykinssymlink is bad, not storing on NTFS21:59
daftykinsread the response ;)21:59
O_OniGiridaftykins: ahh ok, I am sorry for sounding rude. Not meant to21:59
ikoniaO_OniGiri: they don't support the linux permissions, and your home directory will be a link to a user space mount, you can technically do it, I do'nt htink it's a good solution, however, it's up to you21:59
Jordan_UO_OniGiri: I personally don't see anything wrong with symlinking ~/Documents, ~/Pictures, and ~/Videos. You might want to keep your ntfs volume mounted noexec, and if you do that and intend to execute things you download then having ~/Downloads/ be symlinked to ntfs might involve an extra step of moving files to an ext4 path first (which may not be a bad thing). I can't comment on "etc..." because I don't know what other ...22:00
Jordan_U... directiories that might imply, or how you might use them.22:00
O_OniGiridaftykins: could you explain why symlinking is bad? Isn't it basically similar to making shortcuts on Windows?22:00
ikoniayou're not using windows22:00
ActionParsnipikonia: wait... Windows is not installed or going to be installed?22:01
ikoniaI see no issue with having a shared mount point etc /mnt/videos22:01
ikoniabut your home directory which is read and parsed at boot - no22:01
daftykinse.g. not etc?22:01
O_OniGiriJordan_U: Yeah, I symlinking ~/Documents, ~/Pictures. I'm not symlinking subfolders of /22:01
NytramO_OniGiri You CAN do what you're suggesting... I do it myself. Seperate home partition and I have symlinks to an ntfs movies folder. I've never had any issues with it.22:01
ikoniadaftykins: correct22:01
Jordan_Uikonia: What in ~/Videos would be read or parsed at boot (or login for that matter)?22:02
u5erhttps://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/stop-cyberlaw-hr4681/7YFddyYC ; David Cameron recently proposed banning encryption, Obama sided with him, now Obama introduced yet another insane proposal to update the US CFFA law against hacking.22:02
u5erIf you click a link that contains illegal material, leaked information, if you're in an IRC channel or a online conversation, a forum, a chan, a Twitter discussion and some people are talking about hacking or something else illegal, even if you have nothing to do with it, if you go to Wikileaks, if you access leaked Snowden documents you can be prosecuted and sent to jail for up to 10 years.22:02
u5erThis will restrict freedom of speech, and basically remove the first amendment in terms of the internet. Along side this, it could be used to get some one arrested. Send an illegal link, and you can get any one arrested.22:02
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: so Windows isn't on the system at all?22:02
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: and not going to be used?22:02
mr_booJordan_U: sda1 seems to boot win 2003 now. i must repair it from the cd though since i cannot log in to it. many thanks22:02
rwwu5er: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu support only, not non-support chatter.22:02
O_OniGiriActionParsnip: Windows is being used22:02
ikoniaJordan_U: no idea, I've certainly seen problems with gnome when the home directory can't read the standard desktop directories,22:02
ikoniaI'd just rather see it mounted outside the home directory to keep it safe and simple22:03
O_OniGiriActionParsnip: That's why I'm using a NTFS partition to share files between the OSes22:03
ActionParsnipO_OniGiri: ok cool. I can't see an issue22:03

Jordan_Uikonia: Interesting. Thanks.22:03

ikoniajust keep it outside of the home directory22:03
O_OniGiriikonia: thanks for your opinion22:04
O_OniGiriikonia: thanks for your replies and effort :)22:04
O_OniGiriikonia: I have another question, what is the difference between /mnt and /media?22:04
ikoniaO_OniGiri: just directories, I'd stay away from /media as thats used for auto mounts on udev trigger22:05
O_OniGiriikonia: Because what I did... I followed this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions , but they do say that I might want to use mnt instead of /media22:06
ikoniaO_OniGiri: I also suggested using /mnt22:07
O_OniGiriikonia: Will look at it later on :) Thanks22:08
hpuser4466 I setup virtualbox with share folders.   I can mount the share folder in guest (ubuntu) using command:  sudo mount -t vboxsf -o rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 share ~/share22:13
hpuser4466 How do I make the guest auto-mount share folder on reboot ??22:13
ActionParsniphpuser4466: could add the command in /etc/rc.local above the 'exit 0' line22:15

ikoniaeatingthenight: ok, so the extra hope is in the middle and it's got a fairly big effect22:59
ikoniaeatingthenight: that still shouldn't be a huge lag though22:59
ikoniaeatingthenight: from the server route back to your client - see if the routes are the same23:00

ikoniathen why are you running a desktop and why are you trying to launch temrinals on login ???23:26

k1lSGMonkey: press ctrl+alt+f1 , there you will have a tty. that is meant for servers23:27
ikoniait seems a very odd setup23:27

When i boot using the nomodeset param its a blank purple screen, i was able to hear the login screen drum sound when i used the nouveau.noaccel=1 param but its still a black screen with purple dots everywhere. Any ideas what i should try next?23:31

k1lSGMonkey: you told it should be a headless server offering files. now its a desktop? please explain the setup and the use23:32
ikoniaCapruro: what version of ubuntu did you originally install ?23:32
SGMonkeyIkona said i was using a desktop23:32
k1lSGMonkey: you asked for desktop solutions. so do you run a desktop or server?23:32
SGMonkeyIts just a normal desktop pc, which is running ubuntu that i was going to use to serve files to other pcs round my house23:33
Caprurotrusty23:33
Ben64SGMonkey: so then use it like a server --- no gui23:33
ikoniaSGMonkey: so why are you trying to open a terminal and run a shell script ?23:33
ikoniaSGMonkey: for what purpose ?23:33
ikoniaCapruro: so you installed trusty and it's currently still trusty ?23:33
SGMonkeyTo run a game server23:33
Capruroyes!23:33
ikoniaCapruro: could you please run "apt-get update" for me and pastebin the output23:34
Caprurocourse23:34
ikoniaSGMonkey: so look at the startup programs for that then23:35
votlonNo one have any ideas? :(23:35
ikoniaSGMonkey: rather than an over complex process to start a terminal to call a shell to call a script23:35
ikoniaSGMonkey: try to daemon ise it23:35
SGMonkeyI dont know how23:35
ikoniaSGMonkey: so that would be (to me) a more sensible style of question to ask, rather than how to make a complex solution23:36
Caprurohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/9799410/plain/23:36
ikoniaCapruro: you have lots of 3rd party software in there and you have some precise repos in there23:37
ikoniaI'm not massively surprised your machine is in conflict23:37
SGMonkeyAll i know is, in order to start the server i have to open the terminal and type in23:37
SGMonkeycd "foldername/foldername two/"23:37

Funthe screen seems fine now :)23:38
k1lSGMonkey: you can do the same from a tty23:38
SGMonkeyHow?23:39
Caprurohow can I fix?23:39
SGMonkeyI did what you suggested to enter the tty or whatever but i couldnt do anything from there23:39
k1lSGMonkey: install and run a ssh demon and connect from the ssh. or use the keyboard on that machine23:39
SGMonkeyk1l: Way over my head, I have no idea what that means and it sounds way more complicated than running a script at login time23:40
k1lSGMonkey: it should look like this: http://linuxhomeserverguide.com/images/OSInstall/UbuntuLogin.png23:40
ikoniaCapruro: I'd not trust your machines software install perosnally (others may differ in opinion) but I'd get my system to a clean ubuntu 14.04 64bit install23:41
ikoniaCapruro: I'd then only install software from truested 64bit ubuntu repos23:41
SGMonkeyYeah it did23:41
k1lSGMonkey: then enter username, enter, password, enter. then you are in a "terminal" on that machine. called "tty" or CLI (comand line interface) there you can do your commands to start the gameserver23:42
SGMonkeyI think you are missing the point. I want it to run without any input23:42
k1lSGMonkey: you can reach that CLI over ssh, too (if you installed ssh server) and do that commands from another machine.23:42
Capruroikonia: so do you think is better to format it?23:43
k1lSGMonkey: so make a startscript. but things that should run as a server (like gameservers) should already have that.23:43
usr10my system was shutdown not normally caused my power was empty. then my computer was turn off before shutdown proses finished. after that, when i turn on, before screen login shown,show the message= could'nt update .ICEauthority . and when after login, my gnome windows menu (minimize, maximize,close buttons) was moved at left position, why its happen, and how to fix?23:43
SGMonkeyI dont understand how what youre suggesting is a benefit?23:44
SGMonkeyThe server is a jar file that i need opening automatically in a terminal when the computer logs in23:44

A124Q: What is the simplest way to create dualboot Ubuntu? aka 2x Ubuntu.23:45
rdimousHi Everyone, how do I add the contents of one file.txt to the beginning of another file without replacing its contents from the console... like this example: http://pastebin.com/RAXx3Lgf23:46
votlonAlrighty so im going to just try to reinstall a newer version of ubuntu, for 14.04 to install it on a macbookpro so i need to use the amd64-mac iso or can i just use the regular desktop iso?23:46
A124rdimous: echo "text"|cat - yourfile > /tmp/out && mv /tmp/out yourfile23:47
SGMonkeyk1l: I still need access to the desktop and whatnot though23:47
usr10how to fix .could't update .ICEauthority?23:47
SGMonkeyHow do i get back to the desktop from tty?23:47
rdimousA124, isn't that going to replace the contents of file b_23:47
rdimous?23:47
Funsolved23:47
Fun:D23:47
SGMonkeybekks: yeah pretty much23:48
A124rdimous: In other words you create new file, put things in order you want to the file, then replace the file23:48
wallbrokenHi23:48
k1lSGMonkey: well, you are making a lot of confusion. so its a regular desktop pc, which is used as a desktop, but just runs a minecraft server.23:48
wallbrokenDi you know some like launchpad  of osx on ubuntu?23:48
SGMonkeyYes, thats what i said from the start23:49
rdimousA124, gotcha and if I want to add the contents of a single file to several files with the same extension?   let's say the contents of fileA.txt to fileB.txt FileC.txt and FileD.txt  without replacing the contents of b, c and d23:49
SGMonkeyI said it was a standard ubuntu install on a desktop PC which im using to steam media files to the rest of my house23:49
OerHekswallbroken, github23:49
k1lSGMonkey: no23:49
SGMonkeyk1l: no what?23:50
A124rdimous: you do the same.. with for loop. But... first rename fileA to have different extension.23:50
rdimousbut that will be a pain in the butt hehe23:50
rdimousI just want the files to be named the same without renaming anything... there are like 120 files that I just need to add 2 lines at the beginning of them all23:51
rosaecaeruleaeplaying vlc I get a segmentation fault. Is that a problem of vlc or the mp4 file?23:51

rosaecaeruleaeok thnks23:53
votlonSorry for asking again, but does anyone know or know where to find the documentation when installing ubuntu to a mac when iso i should use?23:53
k1lSGMonkey: to steam files to other pcs is not a common desktop task. its what servers and workstations do23:53
k1lSGMonkey: to steam files to other pcs is not a common desktop task. its what servers and workstations do23:53
votlonwhat iso*23:53
Jordan_Uvotlon: You should use the standard 64 bit iso.23:54
SGMonkeyI'm well aware of that23:54
votlonJordan_U: ty very much23:54
Jordan_Uvotlon: You're welcome.23:54
k1lSGMonkey: but if you want it that way, run it that way. but most guys will tell you that you dont need a running desktop for that.23:54
wallbrokenSorry, I mistaken, I meant mission control23:54
votlonJordan_U: got really confused when i was the amd64-mac isos didnt know if i was supposed to be using that instead23:54
votlonwhen i saw*23:54
rosaecaeruleaeJordan_U, I recently changed ownership of the lost+found directory in the hdd in which the files are stored... is that related? I changed it back to root:root23:54
uroyanmeHow do I take FILE and rename/overwrite ANOTHERFILE?23:55
SGMonkeyk1l: Then what do i need?23:56
Jordan_Uvotlon: Those images are helpful for certain intel macs *but only when burned to a DVD*, when using USB install media you need to *not* use the +mac iso. Also, with the latest release of Ubuntu, a better work around was found and so no +mac iso is needed even for those machines, even when booting from DVD.23:56
k1lSGMonkey: for what? please explain exactly what for, or people will think you want the usual server way.23:56
SGMonkeyFuckit, I give up. I wasnt even asking help on how to do what youre talking about23:57
votlonJordan_U: ohhhhh okay thanks for explaining that23:57
Jordan_Uvotlon: You're welcome :)23:57
k1lSGMonkey: what? "i want to do this and that with that setup" and people could answer "<SGMonkey> k1l: Then what do i need?"23:58
Jordan_Urosaecaeruleae: You shouldn't be storing files in lost+found. lost+found is intended only as a place for fsck to stick partially recoverd files (when their original path can't be determined).23:59
SGMonkeyI did... I asked how i could run these commands in the terminal after the user has logged in whilst keeping the terminal open23:59
